Published: November 2019

Drug abuse continues to accelerate towards becoming the most severe public health problem in the United States. The ability to detect drug-abuse risk behavior at a population scale, such as among the population of Twitter users, can help us to monitor the trend of drug-abuse incidents. Unfortunately, traditional methods do not effectively detect drug-abuse risk behavior, given tweets. This is because: (1) tweets usually are noisy and sparse and (2) the availability of labeled data is limited. To address these challenging problems, we propose a deep self-taught learning system to detect and monitor drug-abuse risk behaviors in the Twitter sphere, by leveraging a large amount of unlabeled data. Our models automatically augment annotated data: (i) to improve the classification performance and (ii) to capture the evolving picture of drug abuse on online social media. Our extensive experiments have been conducted on three million drug-abuse-related tweets with geo-location information. Results show that our approach is highly effective in detecting drug-abuse risk behaviors.
Biomass and dominance of conservative species drive above-ground biomass productivity in a mediterranean-type forest of Chile
Authors: Ayma-Romay Ariel Isaías , Bown Horacio E.
Published: November 2019

Background

Forest productivity has a pivotal role in human well-being. Vegetation quantity, niche complementarity, mass-ratio, and soil resources are alternative/complementary ecological mechanisms driving productivity. One challenge in current forest management depends on identifying and manipulating these mechanisms to enhance productivity. This study assessed the extent to which these mechanisms control above-ground biomass productivity (AGBP) of a Chilean mediterranean-type matorral. AGBP measured as tree above-ground biomass changes over a 7-years period, was estimated for twelve 25 m × 25 m plots across a wide range of matorral compositions and structures. Variables related to canopy structure, species and functional diversity, species and functional dominance, soil texture, soil water and soil nitrogen content were measured as surrogates of the four mechanisms proposed. Linear regression models were used to test the hypotheses. A multimodel inference based on the Akaike’s information criterion was used to select the best models explaining AGBP and for identifying the relative importance of each mechanism.

Results

Vegetation quantity (tree density) and mass-ratio (relative biomass of Cryptocarya alba, a conservative species) were the strongest drivers increasing AGBP, while niche complementarity (richness species) and soil resources (sand, %) had a smaller effect either decreasing or increasing AGBP, respectively. This study provides the first assessment of alternative mechanisms driving AGBP in mediterranean forests of Chile. There is strong evidence suggesting that the vegetation quantity and mass-ratio mechanisms are key drivers of AGBP, such as in other tropical and temperate forests. However, in contrast with other studies from mediterranean-type forests, our results show a negative effect of species diversity and a small effect of soil resources on AGBP.

Conclusion

AGBP in the Chilean matorral depends mainly on the vegetation quantity and mass-ratio mechanisms. The findings of this study have implications for matorral restoration and management for the production of timber and non-timber products and carbon sequestration.
Comparative analysis of current 3D printed acetabular titanium implants
Authors: Dall’Ava Lorenzo , Hothi Harry , Henckel Johann , Di Laura Anna , Shearing Paul , Hart Alister
Published: November 2019

Background

The design freedom allowed by three-dimensional (3D) printing enables the production of acetabular off-the-shelf cups with complex porous structures. The only studies on these designs are limited to clinical outcomes. Our aim was to analyse and compare the designs of different 3D printed cups from multiple manufacturers (Delta TT, Trident II Tritanium and Mpact 3D Metal).

Methods

We analysed the outer surface of the cups using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and assessed clinically relevant morphometric features of the lattice structures using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). Dimensions related to the cup wall (solid, lattice and overall thickness) were also measured. Roundness and roughness of the internal cup surface were analysed with coordinate measuring machine (CMM) and optical profilometry.

Results

SEM showed partially molten titanium beads on all cups, significantly smaller on Trident II (27 μm vs ~ 70 μm, p < 0.0001). We found a spread of pore sizes, with median values of 0.521, 0.841 and 1.004 mm for Trident II, Delta TT and Mpact, respectively. Trident II was also significantly less porous (63%, p < 0.0001) than the others (Delta TT 72.3%, Mpact 76.4%), and showed the thinnest lattice region of the cup wall (1.038 mm, p < 0.0001), while Mpact exhibited the thicker solid region (4.880 mm, p < 0.0044). Similar roundness and roughness of the internal cup surfaces were found.

Conclusion

This was the first study to compare the designs of different 3D printed cups. A variability in the morphology of the outer surface of the cups and lattice structures was found. The existence of titanium beads on 3D printed parts is a known by-product of the manufacturing process; however, their prevalence on acetabular cups used in patients is an interesting finding, since these beads may potentially be released in the body.

Authors: Yang Zhiping , Bedugnis Alice , Levinson Susan , DiNubile Mark , Stossel Thomas , Lu Quan , Kobzik Lester
Published: November 2019

Background: Host-derived inflammatory responses contribute to the morbidity and mortality of severe influenza, suggesting that immunomodulatory therapy may improve outcomes. The normally circulating protein, human plasma gelsolin, is available in recombinant form (rhu-pGSN) and has beneficial effects in a variety of pre-clinical models of inflammation and injury.  

Methods: We evaluated delayed therapy with subcutaneous rhu-pGSN initiated 3 to 6 days after intra-nasal viral challenge in a mouse model of influenza A/PR/8/34.

Results: Rhu-pGSN administered starting on day 3 or day 6 increased survival (12-day survival: 62 % vs 39 %, pGSN vs vehicle; p < 0.00001, summary of 18 trials), reduced morbidity, and decreased pro-inflammatory gene expression.

Conclusions: Rhu-pGSN improves outcomes in a highly lethal influenza model when given after a clinically relevant delay.
Collaborative Learning Activities through MoE in Engaging EFL Learners and Diminishing their Foreign Language Anxiety
Authors: Fatimah Sitti
Published: November 2019

Mantle of the Expert (MoE) is an approach integrating drama in learning. A number of studies have   proven the approach to be effective in enhancing student’s learning experience and vary teacher’s teaching strategy. This article is drawn from the results of a multi-case study that implemented MoE in  EFL teaching in Indonesia. The study involving three cohorts of Grade 11 Indonesian senior and vocational high school students and three English teachers used multiple data collection methods: classroom observation, questionnaire and interview. While questionnaire was distributed to the student participants, the interview was administered to collect the data from teacher participants. The MoE implementation involved a series of drama activities integrated with the lesson topics. During the activities the student participants were assigned several tasks to be completed in small groups. This required students to collaborate. The findings show that these collaborative learning activities has shown positive major impacts, two of them are students’ increased engagement and decreased speaking anxiety.

Exploring the emotions of patients undergoing therapy for hepatitis C
Authors: Montague Sarah , Agarwal Kosh , Cannon Mary
Published: November 2019

Background:

Direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy is highly efficacious in the treatment of hepatitis C (HCV). The literature to date has focused primarily on the physical health benefits of viral eradication.

Aims:

This study explored patient emotions during and after DAA therapy for HCV.

Methods:

Over a 6-month period, 178 patients attending a viral hepatitis clinic for treatment of HCV were posed a single question: ‘How do you feel about your diagnosis of hepatitis C today?’ Responses were transcribed verbatim, thematically coded and visualised using WordArt software.

Findings:

The images depict the evolution of patients' perceptions of HCV before, during and after DAA therapy. Responses before treatment were predominantly negative, often describing the fear of contagion and feelings of isolation, secrecy and loneliness. After treatment, patients often described feeling positive and more motivated.

Conclusions:

The results demonstrate that treatment of HCV has a transformative effect on patients' perception of the impact of HCV on their wellbeing. This may promote a more positive outlook and, in turn, facilitate patient engagement with healthcare.

The integration of idiomatic tourists in Barcelona
Authors: Alcázar Eva , Gámiz Coral , Iglesias Montserrat , Padró Aina
Published: November 2019

Language tourism has been scarcely explored and constitutes an interesting field of study due to its idiosyncrasy. Even though the cultural exchange associated to this tourist activity provides significant gains to all the stakeholders involved, it also entails many difficulties which must be taken into consideration and managed properly. The general objective of the project reported in this article has been to investigate how language tourists’ integration in the local community occurs in Barcelona (Spain). Bearing this aim in mind, the difficulties that interfere with such immersion have been identified in order so as to offer measures that can contribute to overcome them in the future. Three research techniques have been used following a qualitative approach to obtain information from language tourism providers and the researchers’ own experiences: in-depth interviews, participant observation and online search. After the data analysis, an action plan has been designed with practical proposals in order to enhance the international students’ integration. Further research could focus on the application of such measures and analyse if the proposals eventually achieve the expected results.
La figura de la Film Commission en la puesta en valor de los recursos audiovisuales técnicos y profesionales de un territorio en España
Authors: Sarabia Andúgar Isabel , Sánchez Martínez Josefina
Published: November 2019

The interest in turning a territory into a setting for the filming of cinematographic audiovisual productions, television series or any other type of audiovisual product, constitutes the main engine of the start-up of a Film Office or Film Commission in any locality, region, province or region.The mission of a filming office is to highlight, not only the benefits of landscapes, monuments, climate of a territory or the ability of its people to host filming equipment (logistics, predisposition of citizens), but also to give visibility to the technical and human audiovisual resources with which a shooting team arrived in a locality could count on in that environment.This research aims to study the figure of the Film Commission and its contribution to the dynamization of production in a territory through the enhancement of the local audiovisual sector -companies and specialized technicians- as an attractiveness of the territory.
Geraldino Brites e as questões de ensino (1926-1934)
Authors: Pereira Carolina Henriques
Published: November 2019

Geraldino da Silva Baltazar Brites (1882-1941) - médico e professor universitário português que se destacou nas áreas científicas da Histologia e da Embriologia - foi um republicano fervoroso e um defensor dos ideais de igualdade e de laicidade da ordem social e dos costumes, combatendo por uma Universidade livre das grilhetas do conservadorismo e do marasmo intelectual. Frequentador de círculos republicanos e colaborador assíduo em revistas e jornais com fortes conotações anarco-sindicalistas e antifascistas, este cientista português viveu sob o signo da modernidade contrariando, através dos princípios da liberdade e da tolerância, todas as formas de opressão. A sua absoluta rejeição da adoção do ensino religioso pelas escolas, compreendendo que este se devia confinar a espaços privados ou a locais estritamente apropriados colocou-o, em 1926, no centro de uma disputa cultural e religiosa com Manuel Gonçalves Cerejeira, amigo íntimo de Salazar e futuro Cardeal-Patriarca de Lisboa. Explora-se, neste trabalho, não só as suas diferentes convicções e fundamentações acerca do ensino como, em simultâneo, se pretende dar a conhecer uma figura republicana que permanece esquecida.

O vocabulário da contrição na Castela do século XV
Authors: Teodoro Leandro Alves
Published: November 2019

No século XV, com objetivo de purificar os espíritos e reformar as condutas dos fiéis leigos, a cúpula eclesiástica da Coroa de Castela passou a promover, de maneira mais intensa e ordenada, a produção de obras pastorais em língua vernácula. Com ênfase em parte dessa produção, especialmente nos sermões proferidos por Vicente Ferrer em Castela, o alvo deste trabalho consistirá em analisar em que medida esses guias moralizantes ajudaram a naturalizar um vocabulário específico de exercícios voltados para a correção dos pecados. Em outras palavras, este estudo visa questionar a maneira como essas obras procuravam ensinar aos fiéis o papel salutar da contrição nos jogos de redenção das faltas; isto é, do próprio ato de externalização do arrependimento. Partindo dos vocábulos utilizados para nomear as formas de contrição prescritas nesses tempos, outro alvo do trabalho será interrogar como os fiéis poderiam apreender essas palavras e alargar seu vocabulário acerca de termos concernentes ao universo espiritual.
Population and Social Demographic Poverty: a Case Study in the Border Areas of East Kalimantan and North Sulawesi
Authors: Latifa Ade , Aswatini Aswatini , Romdiati Haning
Published: November 2019

This paper discusses the social-demographic dimensions of poverty and is based on findings from a four-year research program (20069) conducted by PPKLIPI in the border areas of East Kalimantan and North Sulawesi. The general objective of this study is to develop methods for measuring poverty using social-demographic variables: fertility, mortality, migration, education, marriage and occupation. This research used quantitative and qualitative approaches. The intention in using these two approaches was to enable comprehensive data to be gathered on multidimensional aspects of social-demographic poverty. The quantitative data were collected by using survey techniques; a sample of 400 households was taken from each area. Qualitative data were obtained from in-depth interviews, focus group discussions, observation and desk reviews. The findings show that some socialdemographic variables are likely to be related (correlate) to household poverty; such variables as mean years of schooling of household members aged 15 years and above (below six years of education), the number of children born to the household (more than two) and children below five years of age who had died in the household. The regression results (factor analysis) reveal that about 43.1 per cent and 49 per cent of households are categorised as poor households in the border areas of East Kalimantan and North Sulawesi respectively.
Indonesian Theatre Ten Years after Reformasi
Authors: Hatley Barbara
Published: November 2019

Theatre contributed actively to the Reformasi movement of 1998 in Indonesia, as shows were staged that united students, NGO workers, artists and others in shared criticism of the Suharto regime and aspirations for change. Modern Indonesianlanguage theatre has a long history of political involvement. Developed among students in the Dutch colonial school system, its aim was helping create the Indonesian nation. This led to friction with other political groups and with state authorities. During the New Order regime, performances conveyed criticism that could not be expressed through other channels. In the post-Suharto era, however, when political criticism can be freely expressed and there is no united opposition movement to work with, theatre necessarily connects in a different way to its social context. In Central Java, where the writers research has been based, contemporary theatrical performances are characterised by a shared focus on local identity and community. Local culture is sometimes interpreted as the indigenous cultural forms of an area, but more often as the mixed local-global culture that residents practise today. The term community is used to refer to immediate neighbours and to people with shared interests and experiences, who both watch and actively perform in plays. Such developments in theatre are clearly shaped by the heightened awareness of local identity fostered by regional autonomy and by the ideology of participatory democracy. But how do theatrical activities connect to other social forces and with the structures of the regional autonomy system? Is there any sense of future direction in the current vibrant celebration of local identity? In what ways does theatre in other regions reflect local social conditions? These important questions remain to be explored.
Treading the Path of the Shari�a: Indonesian Feminism at the Crossroads of Western Modernity and Islamism
Authors: Budiman Manneke
Published: November 2019

The downfall of Suhartos New Order in 1998 has opened up a new era of political freedom and participation for activists and for groups that try to promote emancipatory agendas as well as for political Islamists keen on introducing tougher conservative, religious measures to society. Womens activism and participation in different sectors has flourished, and their voices have had much stronger echoes in the political dynamics of the country. However, the new era has also given rise to Islamic radicalism that is also hostile to feminist causes and perceives feminism as part of the Western hegemonic project. In such a slippery political terrain, womens movements in Indonesia have to remake the image of feminism in Indonesian terms so that it cannot be dismissed as an ideology imported from the West and, simultaneously, they must develop a home-grown counter-discourse against the mainstream interpretation of sacred texts by using the same sources of knowledge that the Islamists employ. To what extent women activists have succeeded or failed in their struggles to free Indonesian Muslim women from the shackles of the male-dominated reading of Islamic dogma, and what the future trajectories of their struggles might be, are the primary concerns of this essay.
Some Notes on the Ideals and Goals of Indonesia�s National Education System and the Inconsistency of its Implementation: A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Soedijarto Soedijarto
Published: November 2019

The Republic of Indonesias State Constitution of 1945 adopted a basic policy that obliges the government to run one national education system. It would seem it was the belief of the Founding Fathers when they drafted the constitution that education would be the strategic vehicle for ensuring that the newly independent Indonesian nation would be modern, democratic, prosperous, and with a concept of social justice based on the state philosophy of Pancasila. In implementing the basic policy, a series of education laws (1950, 1954, 1989 and 2003) have been promulgated that were to produce an educated citizenry who would be intelligent, healthy, moral, democratic, and responsible. This policy, and the goals and principles of education formulated in the constitution and in subsequent education laws, is in line with a paradigm followed by many nations that have made education an effective means of supporting their growth and development. Education is seen by some economists and political scientists to have a strategic role in improving the quality of life for Indonesian citizens. However, there has been no serious political determination on the part of the elites who control government and parliament to support the implementation of an education system that accords with the hopes and ambition of the Founding Fathers. The funding necessary for education has not been set aside in national budgets despite the constitutional and legislative requirements and expectations that this be done. The funding for education in Indonesia, compared with other developing nations, is low. The goals and principals adopted in the constitution and education laws have not been seriously and consistently implemented.
Participating in Parliamentary Politics: Experiences of Indonesian Women 1995�2010
Authors: Davies Sharyn Graham , Idrus Nurul Ilmi
Published: November 2019

This article concerns itself with womens participation in politics and, more specifcally, the representation of women in elected legislatures, in Indonesia between 1995 and 2010. The article gives readers a brief overview of the various ways that Indonesian women participate in politics. Examples are given of women being traditional rulers, having political authority, exercising power, becoming presidents and cabinet ministers, participating in protest movements, and being elected to parliament. The article then moves to focus more specifcally on the election of women to the Indonesian parliament. The article analyses positive developments that have occurred in the past decade to facilitate womens entry to parliamentary politics. Although numerous positive developments have indeed taken place, the article argues that women are still hindered in their attempts to get elected to parliament. Drawing on indepth interviews, literature reviews, statistical analysis, and long-term ethnographic research, the authors identify some of the factors limiting womens election, including the restrictive limited model of womanhood advocated in Indonesia, declining cronyism, the ineffectiveness of the thirty per cent quota, the reputation politics has of being dirty, the in?uence of religion, and the large sums of money candidates need to support their election campaigns.

Regional Shift to Bahasa Indonesia: �Old Vernacular� in a New Identity
Authors: Probonegoro Ninuk Kleden , Imelda Imelda -
Published: November 2019

The Gamkonora people are an ethnic group in Indonesia whose members have an outstanding linguistic ability: they are able to speak more than two languages, that is, two or more of Gamkonora, Ternatan-Malay, Ternate, andBahasa Indonesia. The use of these languages is related to the residual traces of the powers that have ruled the area in the history of North Maluku: the Ternate sultanate, European colonialists and Indonesian central government since independence. Re?ecting on the current language behaviour of the Gamkonoran younger generation, which tends to be the Indonesian language (read Malay); the authors question how far the Gamkonorans Indonesian language ability has in?uenced their Gamkonoran language and culture. Through ethnographic studies, the authors found that two languagesIndonesian and Gamkonoranhave di?erent roles in their culture. Therefore, the language shift toBahasa Indonesia by Gamkonoran youth will not replace the Gamkonoran language because the use of their tribal language is supported by their traditional institutions.
The Bloodshed in North Halmahera: Roots, Escalation, and Reconciliation
Authors: Usman Usman
Published: November 2019

This paper aims to explain the con?ict on North Maluku Island or North Halmahera in 1999 to be more specifc. When compared with the con?ict in Ambon, the con?ict in North Halmahera is much greater in terms of the number of victims and material losses. There are several factors that in?uenced the con?ict such as politics, economics and religion. It seems that politics and religion were the dominant underlying factors of the con?ict.At that time, the mass media did not report the con?ict e?ectively, so that the resolution of the con?ict came too late and the con?ict escalated and spread to the entire region of North Maluku. The most fundamental thing causing the con?ict was associated with regional growth (pemekaran), namely the emergence of a new sub-district within the existing sub-district of Kao. The new sub-district was created by the Makian, who are migrants from the island of Kie Besi in North Maluku. They pushed the government to establish a new sub-district of Makian Daratan within the sub-district of Kao. The Pagu people,natives to the area, rejected the regional growth. There was a demonstration that ended in a fght between the Pagu and the Makian. Coincidentally, most of the Pagu are Christian and all of theMakian areMuslim. This led to religious issues becoming a factor with certain parties. As a result, this was a horizontal con?ict wrapped with religious issues. In terms of methodology, this paper was written using a qualitative approach that produces descriptive data about the con?icts in North Halmahera. The analysis of the feld data was undertaken using some theories of con?ict. As a conclusion it can be stated that the con?ict in North Halmahera is basically a con?ict of interest that is wrapped with religious issues.
The Roles of Islamic Organizations in Civil Society and Political Society: Malaysia and Indonesia Compared
Authors: Putri Aisah
Published: November 2019

In both Malaysia and Indonesia, Islamic organizations have played signifcant roles not only in civil society, but also in political society. By contrasting the Malaysian and Indonesian cases, this paper builds a notion arguing that it is possible for the Islamic organizations in civil society to objectively and actively oversee the state even when they are strongly linked to political parties. However, it needs specifc conditions, namely a democratic system, a weak political coalition, and an independent integration process to allow Islamic organizations to move into political society. This argument is also antithetical to a popular neo-Tocquevilleans argument that civil society should be separated from political society to function e?ectively.

The evolution of AKP as a major opposition party until its electoral success is explored. The focal point of this paper is to examine the partys evolution, particularly in the area of changes in strategies, political agenda and responses to external and internal challenges. This study fnds that AKP has managed to win consecutive Turkish elections and has maintained its support from the masses by means of moderate and modern approaches and reforms. This study is based on secondary sources. Books and scholarly articles concerning the issue were examined along with newspaper articles. Furthermore, this paper is purely a descriptive one and not based on any particular theory.
Models and Strategies for Developing the Electricity Sector iIn Indonesia as a Key Element for Poverty Eradication: Evaluation of The First Year
Authors: Sambodo Maxensius Tri , Negara Siwage Dharma , Fuady Ahmad Helmy , Astuti Inne Dwi
Published: November 2019

This study is part of multiyear research on electricity access at remote areas. The end goal of the study is to develop a model of electricity access in remote area. We collected a baseline information as part of quasi experimental study at some villages, in Satar Mese sub-district, East Nusa Tenggara. The baseline data showed three major fnding. First, households with electricity access spent signifcantly less on kerosene. Second, access to electricity increases spending on non-food items signifcantly. Third, because the o? grid SEHEN program is for lighting, we do not obtain strong evidence for a causal relation between electricity access and increases in working hours. We found that access to electricity can improve peoples welfare through increasing spending on food and non-food spending. This mechanism can work because the price of SEHEN is relatively cheaper than kerosene light. Thus, people obtained extra saving on energy spending. In the long terms, we expect, more jobs can be created when electricity production increases.
The Limits of Industrialization in Post-Orde Baru Indonesia: State-Corporatism and Technological Inferiority
Authors: Margiansyah Defbry
Published: November 2019

As competitiveness gains currency, it compels many governments' concerns in achieving economic resilience to avoid the Middle-income Trap. Indonesia has focused on promoting industrialization and economic diversification as a response to the probability of being trapped. However, it has been shown that the performance of the manufacturing sector in Indonesia has been unsatisfying due to the inability to enhance human and technological competences and managing the transition from labor- and resource-intensive to capital- and technology-intensive industries. This situation signifies the importance of industrial revitalization in Indonesia by strengthening the weakest links, innovation, and human capital through the adoption of capability-focused industrial policy on innovation and technology. This paper examines factors that challenge Indonesia to develop innovation and technological capabilities in the industrial sector and analyze the role of the state in organizing industrial policy based on the adoption of the capabilities-focused strategy within re-industrialization in the democratic setting. Employing Thee Kian Wie’s conditions for industrial technology development and Dani Rodrik’s industrial policy, this study reveals vital factors challenging Indonesia’s efforts on innovation and technological development in manufacturing industries. It also found two ideational factors affecting the Orde-Baru bureaucratic culture and practice remain intact in the policy formulation and implementation, in which those are ultimately obstructing the current industrial policy to achieve the policy goals and right institutional setting.

In this increasingly dynamic world, international migration especially international refugee and asylum seeker has become a hot issue in many countries, including Indonesia. For example, a communal conflict between Rakhine and Rohingya ethnic groups in Myanmar in 2012 calls the attention of the international community, especially in Southeast Asia regions. The socio-political situation forced the ethnic minority Rohingya to leave Myanmar to move (migrate) or seek asylum to the neighbouring countries, such as Indonesia. In Indonesia, Rohingya refugees are mostly surviving in the boats "Manusia Perahu camp in Aceh since 2015. The influx of refugees such as Rohingya into Indonesia constitutes a new problem in constitutional and social terms. This paper aims to explain Indonesia's constitutional immigration policy and the public responses to asylum seekers taken from the case of Rohingya ethnic group in Indonesia. This study uses the literature review methods to explain the social problems and application of Indonesian regulations towards Rohingya refugees in the boats Manusia Perahu camp in Aceh. This study finds that a more explicit regulation is needed to regulate the entry of refugees, so that the locals will not be disturbed and still create security between countries.

Indonesia is biggest sending country of migrant worker in the region. half of the number of Indonesian worker is undocumented migrant workers that vulnerable to be a victim of worker rights or human rights violation. The absent of regional policy of migrant worker protection in ASEAN, makes the issue get less attention in ASEAN multilateral framework. Then in 2007 the first regional policy of migrant worker appeared in ASEAN, in the process it involves CSOs from all ASEAN member states. While ASEAN itself is regional organization that conduct state-centric system which position state as a leading actor. This condition bring up a question how the involvement of Indonesian CSO in the policy-making process of migrant workers protection in ASEAN. Through the perspective of critical theory of Habermas, there is a space in the public sphere that can be used by CSO to emancipate migrant workers by conducting dialogue by establish and join network that is HRWG and TFAMW, then CSO can involves in the ASEAN policy making process of migrant workers protection.

Governments commitment in eradicating malaria has been realized in Malaria elimination program. The program aims to reduce Malaria case to zero in 2030. Starting from 2011, Indonesia suffered a drop in APIs value from 1,75 to 0,84. Despite the numerous drop in Malaria cases, some regions are still suffering from large major outbreaks especially in eastern Indonesia. WHO declares that Indonesia is a country at risk of malaria, because of the high rates of malaria morbidity. The aims of this paper is to predict the trend of malaria morbidity with the API variable value of each province in Indonesia. The method used in this research is probabilistic method using extrapolation trends and ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average) using variation percentage of training and testing data to obtain the best prediction method. Result of this article is API value scenario in Indonesia up to 2030. Based on the analysis result, the best method to predict the value of API is exponential growth method because it has the smallest MAPE value, which is 38.48 using 80% training data and 20% testing data. The prediction results show that from year 2018 to 2030, the value of API will decrease from 0.45 to 0.016.

O objetivo do artigo é verificar a influência das características da equipe de gestão de topo (tamanho da equipe, idade, gênero e tempo no cargo) na tomada de decisão de risco no ramo de restaurantes. Para a realização do estudo foram consultadas as informações de 2.144 empresas do ramo de restaurantes da Europa, da base de dados AMADEUS. Foram coletados dados do período de 2014, 2015 e 2016 e, analisados estatisticamente utilizando o Método dos Mínimos Quadrados. Os resultados mostram que gestores com mais idade e tempo de cargo são mais avessos a tomada de decisão de risco. Já tamanho da equipe de gestão e a participação feminina na equipe não diminui o risco na tomada de decisão. O estudo fornece novos insights sobre a relação entre as características da equipe de gestão das empresas do ramo de restaurantes e suas decisões de risco.
EFFECT OF HIGH-FREQUENCY ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELD ON THE MUTAROTATION OF AQUEOUS SOLU-TIONS OF GLUCOSE AND FRUCTOSE
Authors: Shipunov Boris Pavlovich , Ryabykh Andrey Valerievich
Published: November 2019

The indirect influence of the high-frequency electromagnetic field of the 30–200 MHz low power range on the reaction rate of the mutation of D-glucose solutions and on the equilibrium in D-fructose and D-glucose solutions was studied. Solutions were prepared using both deionized water and water exposed to a high-frequency electromagnetic field. Control of the process of mutarotation was carried out polarimetrically. To assess the effectiveness of field exposure, the effective constants of the reaction rate of mutarotation were calculated. It has been established that the rate of mutarotation of D-glucose solutions non-linearly decreases with increasing frequency of the electromagnetic field. The effect of pretreatment of the solvent by an electromagnetic field on the equilibrium in solutions of fructose and glucose, which have been subjected to field exposure, has been studied. The observation was carried out for 30 days. It was found that the equilibrium specific rotation in the fructose solution as a result of the influence of the electromagnetic field shifts towards negative values, and in the case of glucose solution it does not change. An explanation of the results obtained is proposed, which is based on the assumption of a change in the structural organization of the solvent - water as a result of the high-frequency electromagnetic field, which can significantly change the hydration interactions of the reaction participants: carbohydrates and hydrogen ions.
FEATURES OF LIPID COMPOSITION OF SPHAGNUM AND TRUE MOSSES FROM VARIOUS NATURAL CLI-MATIC ZONES

Published: November 2019

A composition of 16 lipid samples of sphagnum and true mosses (Bryales) growing at an average annual temperature ranging from -9.1 °C to 1.5 °C is investigated by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The individual composition and content of n-alkanes, fatty n-acids and their esters, n-alkane-2-ones, aldehydes, farnesylfuranes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), tocopherols, squalene, steroids, sesqui-, di- and triterpenoids of these mosses are determined. True mosses differ from sphagnum mosses in their lower content of n-alkanes, n-alkan-2-ones, n-aldehydes, tocopherols and cyclic terpenoids, and a higher content of PAHs. Campesterol prevails among steroids of true mosses, while stigmasterol and sitosterol dominate in sphagnum mosses. Sitosterol prevails in sphagnum mosses growing in areas with a negative average annual temperature. An increase in the temperature of the habitat results in a decrease in the relative content of n-alkanes with odd number of carbon atoms in the molecule in true mosses, and a slight decrease in their average chain length in sphagnum mosses. It is shown that terpenoids are the most dependent on natural habitat conditions of mosses. This is indicated by the content of squalene, sesqui- and diterpenoids, the ratio of hydrocarbons to oxygen-containing structures of cyclic triterpenoids, and that of compounds from series of perhydropicene and cyclopentapeperhydrochryzene. The increased humidity of habitat of a moss eliminates the effect of temperature. The stability of composition of n-alkanes and n-alkan-2-ones of sphagnum mosses developing under various conditions makes it possible to consider these compounds as potential chemotaxonomic markers of sphagnum mosses in peat deposits.
