Magical Phenomena in Reality in Rick Riordan’s Percy Jackson and The Olympians: The Lightning Thief
Full text linkThis research examines the elements of magical realism, using descriptive qualitative method, a literary genre depicting magic in the modern world, in Rick Riordan\u27s "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief." Applying Wendy B. Faris\u27 theory of magical realism\u27s five characteristics: the irreducible element, the phenomenal world, unsettling doubts, merging realism, and disruption of time/space/identity. The research identifies these aspects in the novel. The analysis reveals the novel contains irreducible magical elements like worlds, characters, and objects, exemplified by Percy\u27s encounter with the shape-shifting monster Erinyes disguised as his teacher. The phenomenal world encompasses magical places and beings. Unsettling doubts arise from Percy directly addressing the reader about his experiences. Merging realism intertwines the magical realm rooted in myths with the tangible world, as monsters and gods frequently intermingle with reality. Disruption of time manifests when Percy experiences slowed time at the Lotus Hotel during his quest. The study concludes that "The Lightning Thief" exhibits all five characteristics of magical realism by integrating mythological magic into the contemporary setting. Irreducible magical elements, a phenomenal, magical world, narrator-induced unsettling doubts, the merging of mythical and real realms, and space-time distortions collectively categorize the novel as an exemplar of magical realist fiction

Stigma Terkait Perselingkuhan dalam Perspektif Pelakor
Full text linkIn recent years, there are two terms related to infidelity, namely pelakor, a label that is given to women who snatch someone’s husband and pebinor, a label that is given to men who snatch someone’s wife. However, the term pelakor is more popular than pebinor, either in real life or in social media. This is also the case for stigma. Stigma to pelakor is more popular than stigma associated with pebinor. While the existing literatures on infidelity focus more on stigma toward pelakor on social media, little [if any], study deals with stigma towards pelakor from the perspective of pelakor themselves. This article fills this gap. This qualitative research was conducted in Makassar. There are five pelakor who get involved in this study. Data collection was carried out using in-depth interview and observation through social media. The research shows that the reasons why women snatch someone’s husband are economic needs, frequency of encounters, and rekindled love (CLBK). The process of becoming a pelakor often begins through social media, workplace interactions, or introduced by friends. In the perspective of pelakor, the stigma against them includes labels such as women without self-respect, cheap women, love in love, and immoral women, reflecting society\u27s negative perceptions towards pelakor. However, pelakor themselves respond to this stigma in various ways, ranging from feeling of shame and desiring for self-improvement, to behave indifference toward social judgment, reflecting their personal autonomy over their life choices. It is argued in this article that while pelakor realised that they are stigmatised and ruin someone’s marriage, no one immediately ends their relationship. Pelakor even “enjoy” the affair and don’t care what people say about it
“Anugrah atau Musibah”: Pinjaman Online di Kalangan Mahasiswa
Full text linkThe proliferation of online loan (pinjol) users among students is not something new, in fact many studies have examined the use of online loans, which focus more on the ease of accessing online loans. This article focuses on the reasons and impacts of using online loans among university students. Using qualitative approach, this study was carried out in Makassar City between September and December 2023. There were ten informants who participated in this study, consisting of seven women and three men, with an age range of 20 to 21 years. In this study, in-depth interviews and observation methods were used as data collection techniques. The results of this research show students have many needs, but at the same time have limited funds whike they depend on their parents. So they will look for various alternatives to have money and to meet their needs, one way is to borrow money. In this modern era, technology and financial sector are innovating to create new services, namely online loans. Online loans help the general public, including students, who need fast funds with easy requirements and quick process. The reasons why students use loans are divided into two, namely: to meet urgent needs (such as buying books, paying boarding houses, and paying off debts); and to meet their entertainment needs (such as online shopping and gambling capital). If online loans are used for urgent needs, then borrowing is a "gift". However, if online loans are used for entertainment needs, then online loans are a "disaster". Addiction to such loan and being entangled in an endless cycle of debt to the point of using other loans to pay off debt are the impacts of uncontrolled use of online loans

The Correlation between The Vocabulary Mastery and Writing Skills of the Ninth Graders of SMP Negeri 1 Bandongan
Full text linkFour language skills are needed to master a language: listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Two aspects are needed to communicate in written form: vocabulary mastery and writing skills. Someone needs writing skills and extensive vocabulary knowledge to create good writing. Even so, it was found that there were still students who had difficulties in translating words from Indonesian to English and vice versa, challenges in using the right words, and problems in constructing sentences in English. In addition, some students still have limited knowledge of vocabulary. This study focused on finding the students’ vocabulary mastery level, writing skills level, and the correlation between vocabulary mastery and writing skills. A person will master four language skills, including writing, easier if they have a broad vocabulary. The more comprehensive the vocabulary knowledge, the more vocabulary will be used in writing; hence, the vocabulary used in the writing will be more varied. Correlation research was used in this study. The study population was 9th graders of SMP Negeri 1 Bandongan, and the sample was 29 students from class 9B at SMP Negeri 1 Bandongan. The study instruments were a vocabulary test and a writing test. The instruments were derived from previous research. The data taken was analyzed using a correlation test with SPSS. The results of this study show no significant correlation between vocabulary mastery and writing skills with the Sig value. (2-tailed) 0.145 > 0.05. Furthermore, the correlation coefficient is 0.278. Hence, the correlation between vocabulary mastery and writing skills was low. This study suggests that teachers and students focus on learning and mastering vocabulary and other aspects that influence writing ability and the writing itself

Full text linkThe purpose of this study was to find out how to use Earring Leaf Flour for basal diet for intake and digestibility of Calcium and Phosphor on pigs . The materials used were 12 male pigs of Landrace breeding which received 1-2 months with initial body weight of 30-50 kg, an average of 37.92 kg and (KV = 13,66%). This study used a randomized block design (RBD) with 4 preparations and 3 replications. The treatment tried was R0: 100% basal diet without leaves Earring (control), R1: 98% basal diet + 2% leaf Earring, R2: 96% basal diet + 4% leaf Earring, R3: basal diet 94% + 6% leaf earrings. The variables consumed were intake and digestibility of Calcium and Phosphor. The results showed that the study was not significant (P> 0.05) for intake and digestibility of calcium, and phosphor. Conclusion is the use of leaves Earrings up to 6% give a relatively similar response to the intake and digestibility of Calcium and Phosphor
PEMODELAN DEBIT SUNGAI MENGGUNAKAN SOIL AND WATER ASSESSMENT TOOL DI SUBDAS MAMASA
Full text linkABSTRACT
Issues related to watershed have received primary attention in the past few decades. The hydrological conditions of the watershed area are considered crucial as a source of life. In efforts to achieve sustainable watershed management, understanding the complex hydrological dynamics is very important. The objective of this research is to simulate river discharge using the Soil and Water Assessment Tools (SWAT) model. This study was conducted in the Mamasa Sub-watershed area. The results show that the river discharge in the Mamasa Sub-watershed has increased as it approaches the outlet (downstream) through the accumulation of discharge in larger order rivers. The Mamasa Sub-watershed also experiences a trend of increasing average annual discharge at a rate of 0.74 m3/s per year. Improvement in the discharge simulation results was achieved through a calibration process using 11 parameters. The calibration results indicate that the calibrated discharge has a higher R2 value compared to the initial simulation discharge, showing that the model calibration successfully improved the quality of the expected discharge results to reach 79.50 percent. However, the calibration results still have a low R2 value, influenced by the selection of appropriate parameters and accurate observational data.
