    Negara berkembang seperti negara Indonesia, pembangunan sangatlah diperlukan pemerintah guna membuat negara ini menjadi lebih baik serta tumbuh menjadi negara maju. Pelaksanaannya sebuah pembangunan memerlukan dana yang tidak sedikit. Disektor pendapatan pemerintah, sumber pendapatan yang terbesar saat ini adalah pajak. Pajak penghasilan pasal 21 ini besaran tarifnya sesuai dengan PTKP, PTKP itu sendiri adalah penghasilan yang tidak dikenakan pajak. Kebijakan kenaikan PTKP pada tahun 2013 ini diambil oleh pemerintah karena beberapa kebijakan stimulus fiskal untuk mengantisipasi perlambatan ekonomi global, sebagai dampak dari krisis finansial yang terjadi di Eropa dan Amerika Serikat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini yaitu pengaruh kenaikan PTKP terhadap daya beli masyarakat di wilayah Kabupaten Kediri khususnya Desa Sambiresik Kecamatan Gampengrejo. Peneliti ingin meneliti kebenaran dengan menaikan PTKP maka daya beli masyarakat akan meningkat juga yang sesuai dikatakan oleh pemerintah. Jenis penelitian yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kuantitatif. Dalam penelitian ini merumuskan hipotesis terlebih dahulu. Teknik pengumpulan data yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah Kuesioner. Dalam penelitian ini peneliti memakai skala interval atau skala likert sebagai skor dari kuesioner yang telah disebar. Analisis data yang dipakai adalah Analisa deskriptif. Hasil penelitian dapat diketahui bahwa apabila variabel bebas (PTKP) bernilai (0) maka variabel terikat (Daya Beli) bernilai 3,938. Nilai Koefisien Leverage untuk variabel X adalah sebesar -180. Pada uji regresi terdapat nilai sig 0,140. Nilai sig lebih besar dari nilai probabilitas 0,05 atau nilai 0,140>0,05, maka H0 diterima. Nilai t negatif menunjukkan bahwa variabel X tidak mempunyai hubungan searah dengan Y. Saran dari penelitian ini agar pemerintah lebih cermat lagi apabila ingin menaikan jumlah PTKP guna meningkatkan daya beli. Pemerintah dapat meningkatkan daya beli masyarakat dengan menaikan PTKP dan juga mengontrol harga kebutuhan pokok. Bila hanya menaikan PTKP tetapi pemerintah tidak mengontrol harga kebutuhan pokok yang semakin tinggi maka hasilnya kosong

    An exploratory study of how older Irish women engage with anti-ageing beauty advertising and the meaning they attribute to their beauty work

    The pervasive obsession to look younger has reached new heights resulting in newfound attention from marketers towards the older female consumer. Media messages saturated with the ubiquitous portrayals of flawless female perfection, creates false needs for consumers and can result in severe pressures for women and lasting health consequences. Although it represents an increasingly lucrative target market, a gap in the literature has been identified whereby further research is required to provide an understanding for marketing practitioners of how media messages are affecting older women and the motives behind why women purchase anti ageing products. The research objective is to understand the lived experiences of how older Irish women engage with anti ageing beauty advertising and the meaning they attribute to their beauty work. The author used a phenomenological approach utilising in-depth interviews, with six women over fifty years of age. Thematic coding was used to highlight key themes relevant to the research objectives. Results highlight that the women in the study reject the stereotypical images of models and call for more inclusive and diverse portrayals of females in the media. The women were accepting of the ageing process and just wanted to look well and be healthy. The purchase of anti ageing products was to enhance their appearance and not necessarily look younger. Women also reported an interesting paradox whereby they described only wanting to look good for themselves but also appeared to succumb to societal pressures. Marketing practitioners can consider these findings to develop an appropriate marketing strategy that will resonate with this customer group. Consideration also needs to be given by this industry to the detrimental effect that the representation of ‘ageless perfection’ may have for some women, unintended consequences that marketers should be cognisant of

    Mapping determinants of cytokine signaling via protein engineering

    Get PDF
    Cytokines comprise a large family of secreted ligands that are critical for the regulation of immune homeostasis. Cytokines initiate signaling via dimerization or oligomerization of the cognate receptor subunits, triggering the activation of the Janus Kinases (JAKs)/ signal transducer and activator of transcription (STATs) pathway and the induction of specific gene expression programs and bioactivities. Deregulation of cytokines or their downstream signaling pathways are at the root of many human disorders including autoimmunity and cancer. Identifying and understanding the mechanistic principles that govern cytokine signaling will, therefore, be highly important in order to harness the therapeutic potential of cytokines. In this review, we will analyze how biophysical (ligand-receptor binding geometry and affinity) and cellular (receptor trafficking and intracellular abundance of signaling molecules) parameters shape the cytokine signalosome and cytokine functional pleiotropy; from the initial cytokine binding to its receptor to the degradation of the cytokine receptor complex in the proteasome and/or lysosome. We will also discuss how combining advanced protein engineering with detailed signaling and functional studies has opened promising avenues to tackle complex questions in the cytokine signaling field.</p

    PENGARUH KENAIKAN PENGHASILAN TIDAK KENA PAJAK (PTKP) TERHADAP PENINGKATAN DAYA BELI MASYARAKAT DI DAERAH KABUPATEN KEDIRI (Studi Kasus Di Desa Sambireksik Kecamatan Gampengrejo)

    Developing countries such as Indonesia's state government development is necessary in order to make this country better and grow into a developed country. Income tax article 21, the biggest contributor of government revenue. Itself taxable income is income that is not taxed. Policy PTKP rise in 2013 was taken by the government for fiscal stimulus in anticipation of a global economic slowdown. The purpose of this study is the effect of the increase in taxable income to purchasing power in the region, especially the village of Kediri District Gampengrejo Sambiresik. Researchers wanted to examine the truth by raising the taxable income will increase purchasing power also appropriate government said. This type of research used in this study is a quantitative approach. Data collection techniques used questionnaire study. This study used a Likert scale scores of the questionnaire. Analysis of the data used is descriptive analysis. The results of this research is that if the independent variable (PTKP) worth (0) then the dependent variable (Purchasing Power) worth 3,938. Leverage the value of coefficient for the variable X is equal to -180. In the regression tests are sig 0.140, then H0 is accepted. Advice from research that more closely if the government wants to increase the amount of taxable income to increase purchasing power. The government can increase people's purchasing power by raising the taxable income but also control the prices of basic necessities. Keywords : income taxes , non-taxable income and purchasing power

    Geobacter sulfurreducens reduced Ag(I) (as insoluble AgCl or Ag+ ions), via a mechanism involving c-type cytochromes, precipitating extracellular nanoscale Ag(0). These results extend the range of metals known to be reduced by Geobacter species and offer a method for recovering silver from contaminated water as potentially useful silver nanoparticles
