Analysis of the Editing Limits of the General Election Participants' Selfies on Newspaper (A Study on Political Communication Ethics)
No full textThe research, entitled "Analysis of the Editing Limits of the General Election Participants' Selfies on Newspaper (within a study on Political and Communication Ethics)," discusses the general election candidates' photo manipulation on newspaper within the context of political and communication ethics. Photos on newspaper are a strategic visual media that has to honestly and objectively reflect the candidates' identity. Excessive manipulation erodes the principles of honesty, transparency, and justice in democracy. The research applies critical paradigm using qualitative approach through in-depth interviews with photographer, academician, senior journalist, former head of regional General Election Committee, and communication experts. The results of the research emphasizes that photos on newspaper are to be considered a journalistic product that is subject to the visual honesty principle. Editing is only allowed for minor adjustment such as lighting or composition, without changing the candidates' identities. The photos are obligated to comply with distinct visual standards related to facial proportions, positions, backgrounds, and lightings. Recommendations comprise development of the regulations on editing standard, establishment of special working unit, and guidance to candidate photo uniformity. This guidance consists of firm photo verification process, cultural flexibility, and monitoring over modern editing technology such as Al in order to maintain visual honesty. Implementation of this guidance will help ensure that the candidates' photos represent their original identities, support healthy political participants, and strengthen ethical and transparent democracy.456 PagesDisertasi Dokto
The Influence of Financial Literacy on Investment Decisions of the Millennial Generation of Undergraduate of the Faculty of Economics and Business University of North Sumatra
No full textThis study aims to analyze the influence of financial literacy on investment decisions among millennial graduates from the Faculty of Economics and Business, Universitity Of North Sumatra (FEB USU). This research employs a quantitative method using questionnaires as the data collection instrument. The analysis results indicate that financial literacy has a positive effect on investment decisions, as evidenced by the t-value (2.467) exceeding the t-table value (2.030). However, the influence of financial literacy on investment decisions is relatively weak, with a determination coefficient of 14.8% and a correlation coefficient of 0.385. The simple regression equation shows that each one-unit increase in financial literacy will improve investment decisions by 1.450. In conclusion, although financial literacy positively influences investment decisions, its impact is relatively small. Further research is needed to explore other variables to provide a more comprehensive understanding of investment decision-making.76 PagesKertas Karya Diplom

No full textUpland rice is one of the dryland rice cultivars that play an important role in the Indonesian agricultural system. However, currently local upland rice germplasm is almost extinct due to the use of national superior varieties. This study aims to characterize, determine the advantages and disadvantages of morphological characters, agronomy and nutritional content and kinship of 8 upland rice cultivars from Padang Lawas Regency. This research was conducted in the Gauze House of the Faculty of Agriculture and in the Central Laboratory of the Faculty of Agriculture, University of North Sumatra with an altitude of ± 25 meters above sea level from March to November 2024. This research was conducted with 2 methods, namely descriptive methods and experimental methods. The descriptive method was carried out by deliberate sampling of 3 sample plants / cultivars and the experimental method was carried out by direct observation in the laboratory and analyzed with simple statistics. Character identification was carried out with the guidance of the system of characterization and evaluation of rice plants by IRRI translation 2003. The results showed that the qualitative, quantitative and nutritional characters on the results of morpho-agronomic characterization and nutritional content of 8 local upland rice cultivars from Padang Lawas Regency have diverse properties. The same characters include leaf surface, stigma color, stamen color, presence of lemma palea hair, grain length, grain width, flowering age, harvest age, plant height and total tillers. Local upland rice cultivars from Padang Lawas Regency have superior characteristics such as stem angle, leaf angle, flag leaf angle upright criteria in 7 cultivars, panicle length criteria very long in 7 cultivars, grain length criteria very long in all cultivars, grain width criteria wide in all cultivars, seed thickness criteria medium in Sidingkit and Siluka cultivars, the number of productive tillers criteria very much in 5 cultivars, The total number of tillers is very high in all cultivars, the total number of grains per plant is high in Sikak (Black) cultivar, the 1000-grain weight is heavy in Sidingkit and Siluka cultivars, the rice husk is purple in Sikak (Black), Sikak (Green), Sidawat and Sidingkit cultivars, the protein content is high in Siranting Tolang and Sidingkit cultivars, and the anthocyanin content is high in Sikak (Green) and Sidingkit cultivars.

Revocation of Deed of Gift Issued by a PPAT Due To Heir's Disapproval (A Study on the Verdict of Medan High Religious Court No. 112/Pdt.G/2019/PTA.Mdn)
No full textA gift is something which is given for free; it is intended to be the solution in distributing inheritance so that there will be no conflict in practicing it. In reality, however, a gift is not the best solution because there are many disputes about the revocation of deed of gift as what happens in the Verdict of the Medan PTA (High Religious Court) No. 112/Pdt.G/2019/PTA.Mdn because a gift is a joint property and given by the parents to one of their children without any approval from the other heirs. The result is that it causes a conflict among the heirs since they think that it is not fair.
This research uses juridical normative research method with descriptive analytic approach. The data consists of secondary data, obtained from primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. They are gathered by conducting library research and interviews. The gathered data are analyzed by using qualitative analytical method.
The result of the research suggests that the revocation of the deed of gift happens because there is a regulation which has been violated - the gift is more than 1/3 of the property. In making the deed of gift, a PPAT is responsible for it. He is required to understand the regulations on distribution of a gift, let alone if the heirs and the testators are Moslems. He has to know how to distribute a gift in the KHI (Compilation of the Islamic Laws), and he has to apply the Principle of Prudence in making Deeds of Gift in order to avoid conflicts.
The conclusion is that the Deed of Gift No. 184/Binjai Kota/2004 issued by PPAT in the Verdict of Medan PTA No. 112/Pdt.G/2019/PTA.Mdn does not have any legal force because the deed of gift has violated the Islamic Sharia specified in Article 210 of KHI in which it is more than 1/3 of the testator's property and the distribution of inheritance does not have any approval from the heirs. The consequence is that the receiver loses his right on the gift. The panel of judges' decision causes the status of the land and the building becomes the joint property again. The panel of judges' decision in this Verdict has applied the Principle of Prudence for the whole party since the judges do not side with any parties in the litigation, and they recognize the equality of rights and obligations of both parties.

Legal Protection For Land Rights Buyers In Sale And Purchase Deeds And Transfer Of Rights Issued By Notaries (Study Of The Supreme Court Of The Republic Of Indonesia Decision Number 3059 K/Pdt/2020)
No full textLand is a fundamental human necessity that frequently leads to disputes, often arising from legal relationships between individuals and land. Based on Law No. 2 of 2014 amending Law No. 30 of 2004 concerning Notary Positions, parties involved in notarial deeds are entitled to legal certainty. However, in this study’s case, the buyer listed in the notarial deed did not receive legal protection or fulfillment of rights, despite meeting their obligations under the deed’s terms. This analysis examines the evidentiary nature of sale and purchase deeds and land rights transfers executed by notaries, the validity of unregistered land sale transactions based on the Supreme Court of Indonesia Decision No. 3059 K/Pdt/2020, and the legal protection afforded to land rights buyers under similar circumstances. The research employs a prescriptive approach using normative juridical methods. Secondary legal materials are used as data sources, with data collection conducted through library research. Data analysis follows a qualitative methodology based on deductive reasoning. The findings reveal that legal protection for buyers includes inserting protective clauses in the notarial deed, such as guarantees that the property is free from disputes and authorizing the buyer to register the land rights. Additionally, buyers can file a breach of contract lawsuit against sellers who fail to fulfill their obligations. The study concludes that the sale and purchase deed and land rights transfer deed created by the notary failed to meet the subjective elements required for a valid agreement under Article 1320 of the Indonesian Civil Code. Furthermore, the seller was deemed legally incompetent to conduct the sale, rendering the legal act void under Article 1471 of the Civil Code. Given the buyer’s resulting losses, legal protection should be enhanced. Notaries must exercise due diligence in verifying the authenticity of parties’ data in accordance with applicable regulations to achieve justice, legal certainty, and utility in every notarial deed.168 PagesTesis Magiste
Signcryption Using the AA-Beta (AAβ) Public Key Encryption Algorithm with the Lalem–Laould–Kara–Alkhalidi–Eleyan (LLKAKE) Scheme
No full textIn the digital era, message exchange security faces significant challenges due to risks
of hacking, eavesdropping, and modification by unauthorized parties. To address this
issue, cryptography plays an important role in maintaining message confidentiality,
authentication, and integrity. This research proposes the implementation of
signcryption technique using AA-Beta (AAβ) Public Key Encryption algorithm
combined with Digital Signature scheme – Lalem – Louid – Kara - Alkhalidi - Eleyan
(LLKAKE) to enhance digital communication security. By applying the encrypt-then-
sign method, this system ensures messages remain confidential, authenticated, and
intact. The system is developed using Python and designed for .docx text files. Testing
conducted on text sizes ranging from 10 to 2000 characters demonstrates high
efficiency with average times of 0.018098 seconds for encrypt-then-sign and
0.047312 seconds for verify-then-decrypt. To test system resilience, two types of
brute-force attacks were performed: conventional factorization algorithm and
Kraitchik algorithm. With the conventional factorization algorithm, the required time
increases drastically from 0.000054 seconds for 10-bit numbers to 53.210127
seconds for 30-bit numbers. 35-bit numbers could not be solved within 3600 seconds.
The Kraitchik algorithm shows similar results with times of 0.000511 seconds for 10-
bit, 0.010830 seconds for 15-bit, 0.270859 seconds for 20-bit, and 5.366103 seconds
for 25-bit numbers. 30-bit and 35-bit numbers also remained unsolved within the
3600-second time limit. Test results show that the longer the bit length of numbers,
the more difficult and time-consuming it becomes to break them. Although the
Kraitchik algorithm is theoretically faster than the conventional algorithm, it still
requires very long processing times for large numbers. This proves that the
developed system is secure against various types of factorization attacks and can be
relied upon to secure digital communications110 PagesSkripsi Sarjan
Ability of Hydrochar from Palm Fronds Activated with Phosphoric Acid (H3po4) as Adsorbent for Glycerol Purification
No full textCrude glycerol is obtained as a by-product of the biodiesel production process in
an impure state and contains many impurities, so it needs to be purified. Glycerol
purification can be achieved by neutralization and adsorption processes using
activated carbon. Palm fronds contain high levels of cellulose lignin and can be
used as activated carbon. Hydrothermal carbonization is a rapid combustion
method in which biomass and water are introduced under high temperature and
pressure conditions. This study aims to evaluate the ability of hydrochar from
phosphoric acid-activated palm fronds and to analyze the effect of temperature,
time and water to biomass weight ratio on glycerol purification. The stages of this
research consisted of experimental design, preparation of raw materials,
hydrothermal carbonization process, determination of iodine absorbency, analysis
of hydrochar products, characterization of hydrochar texture and surface,
neutralization and adsorption procedures of crude glycerol, determination of
glycerol content by titrimetry and using GC-MS equipment, analysis of glycerol
purity and color analysis of glycerol. Hydrochar was prepared with process
temperature variations of 160 oC, 180 oC, 200 oC and 220 oC, process time of 20,
40, 60 and 80 minutes and biomass: water ratio of 1:6, 1:8, 1:10 and 1:12. The
adsorption process was carried out with adsorbent mass variation (m/v) of 1%, 2%,
3% and 4%. The results showed that the adsorbent variation at a process
temperature of 220 oC for 80 minutes with a biomass: water ratio of 1:10 had the
highest iodine number value of 980.68 mg/g. The highest glycerol content was
92.50% with 4% adsorbent mass variation. Color analysis of the best glycerol
showed a yellow parameter value that decreased from 70 to 2 on the scale at 4%
adsorbent mass variation.104 PagesTesis Magiste
