Wild speculations on the missing flight MH370: balancing online expression and content regulation in Malaysia / Mahyuddin Daud
A recent incident on disappearance of Malaysia Airlines (MAS) flight MH370 has broken billion hearts of people around the world. Joint international investigations have confirmed that the flight has ended in the middle of South Indian Ocean. However, till the day this work is written, no sign of wreckage, dead bodies or any shred of evidence could be found to provide an answer thus inviting wild speculations to the incident. Wild speculations on plane hijacking, suicide, terrorism acts and more can easily be found online despite threats by the authorities not to speculate. In this regard, the author recalls the right to freedom of expression (FOE) - which has been long recognised by international treaties. Accordingly, FOE has been expanded to include online expressions. New technology allows Internet content to be created without the need for approval from an editor – like in print media. This could invite creation of problematic content (such as speculations on MH370) and often led to intermediary liability of webmasters and service providers. Therefore, this paper seeks to address on 3 significant points. Firstly, a brief problem statement on MH370 incident and surrounding legal risks caused by wild speculations shall be addressed. Secondly, the author will discuss current legal positions on digital right to FOE vis-a-vis Internet content regulation in Malaysia focusing on online speculations. Finally, the author will provide suggestions to balance between rights to digital expression and Internet content regulation with the view on minimising online risks to netizens
METABOLISM IN COMPENSATORY GROWTH. IV. THE ARTERIAL BLOOD CONCENTRATIONS OF AMINO ACIDS AND ARTERIOVENOUS (AV) CONCENTRATION DIFFERENCES OF AMINO ACIDS ACROSS THE HIND-LIMB MUSCLES IN ANIMAL UNDERGOING COMPENSATORY GROWTH
MAHYUDDIN, P. dan E. TELEN1. 1998 . Metabolisme dalam pertumbuhan kompensatori . IV . Konsentrasi asam amino dalam daraharteri dan perbedaan konsentrasi asam amino arteri-vena pada ternak yang mengalami pertumbuhan kompensatori . Jurnal fntuTernak dan Veteriner 3 (2): 87-93 .Pengukuran konsentrasi asam amino dalam darah arteri dan perbedaan konsentrasi asam amino arteri-vena dari otot kakidilakukan pada 4 tifk kurva pertumbuhan, yaitu: sebelum pembatasan pemberian pakan (PI), 8 minggu setelah pembatasanpemberian pakan (P2), 3 minggu (P3) dan 15 minggu (P4) setelah ternak diberi pakan kembali secara ad libitum. Enam belasdomba lepas sapih dibagi dalam 2 kelompok, Kelompok I dan II diberi pelet lucern (Medicago sativa) secara ad libitum selama3 minggu; kemudian Kelompok I terus-menerus diberi pakan secara ad libitum, sedangkan Kelompok If diberi pakan yang samasebanyak 1/2 kebutuhan pokokaya selama 8 minggu, kemudian diberi pakan secara ad libitum sampai akhir percobaan.Pembatasan pakan (P2) menurunkan konsentrasi asam amino berantai cabang (AABC) dan fenilalanin 43% dan histidin 30%.Pada periode P3 dan P4 konsentrasi AABC dalam Kelompok If naik lebih cepat daripada Kelompok I, tetapi pembatasan pakandan pemberian pakan secara ad libitum fdak berpengaruh pada konsentrasi lisin, arginin, treonin dan asam amino yang nonesensial. Karena variasi yang besar antar ternak, perbedaan konsentrasi semua asam amino pada arteri-vena tidak berbeda padaternak Kelompok I dan II pada semua periode (PI sampai P4) Kenaikan konsentrasi asam amino AABC dalam peredaran darahdari ternak yang mengalami pertumbuhan kompensatori diduga karena sintesishya lebih besar daripada penggunaannya. Karenaitu, disarankan penambahan energi dalam pakan untuk menaikkan penggunaan asam amino untuk sintesis protein.Kata kunci : Pertumbuhan kompensatori, asam amino, sintesis protei
Improvement of Murrah Buffalo Milk Production Fed Palm Oil Solid Waste Containing Ration
A field trial was conducted to study the effect of dietary inclusion of palm oil solid waste on milk production of murrah buffalo raised under palm oil plantation. Two farms from different districts were involved in this study. Forty cows with 7–9 month pregnancy were selected from each farm and they were divided into control and treatment groups. Cows in control group were offered a mixed supplement of 1 kg copra meal + 2 kg fresh grated cassava root + mineral mix and treatments group were offered the control diet + 1 kg palm oil solid waste. The dietary supplement was offered to the cows for 2 months before and 2 months period after calving. The cows were grazed under palm oil plantation. The addition of palm oil solid waste in the diet improved (P<0.05) milk yield (8.5 l/d vs 10.5 l /d), calves weight at birth (19.6 kg vs 22.1 kg) and live weight gain of the calves (0.66 kg/d vs 0.99 kg/d). Additional dietary inclusion of palm oil solid waste improved milk yield of murrah buffalo, and further improvement of milk yield was expected to achieve by higher inclusion of palm oil solid waste in the diet

Mahyuddin Dalimunthe. Aplication of paddy straw and fertilization package on soil characteristics, rice growth and production in the intensive rice planting pattern, the aim of the research was to obtain of the effect of fresh paddy straw application and fertilization package technology on the soil characteristics, rice growth and production grown using the intensive rice planting pattern. This research was carried out from November 2009 - February 2010 at Kebun Percobaan Balai Pengkajian Teknologi Pertanian (BPTP) Sumatera Utara, Pasar Miring, on the Inceptisol soil type. The exprimental design used the Split Plot Design with 3 replications, the main plot was fresh paddy straw (J) that consists of J0 = without straw, J1 = stubble without decomposer, J2 = stubble + decomposer and J3 = stubble + straw + decomposer, and the sub plot was the fertilization package (P) consists of P1 = local farmer fertilizing, P2 = based on the soil analysis result of nitrogen (N), fosphate (P) and kalium (K), P3 = fertilizing based on Keputusan Menteri Pertanian (Kepmentan) no. 1 / 2006, P4 = fertilizing based on Leaf Color Chart (LCC) to N fertilizer on Perangkat Uji Tanah Sawah (PUTS) analysis of P and K and, and P5 = fertilizing based on the simulation PuPS 1.0 software. The result show that the fresh straw was able to improve the soil characteristics, increase rice production but did not affect the rice growth significantly. Aplication of decomposer in to the fresh paddy straw gave higher affect than without decomposer aplication. Fertilization package influence the soil characteristics, the rice growth and production. The fertilization package PuPS 1.0 the less fertilizers was able to improve the rice growth and production. The interaction between the combination of fresh straw and decomposer with the fertilization package was able to improve the soil characteristics and to increase the rice growth but did not impact the rice production significantly.Mahyuddin Dalimunthe. Aplikasi Jerami dan paket Pemupukan Terhadap Sifat Tanah, Pertumbuhan dan Produksi Pada Pola Penanaman Padi Intensif, yang bertujuan untuk mendapatkan teknologi aplikasi jerami segar dan paket pemupukan terhadap perubahan sifat tanah, pertumbuhan dan produksi pada pola penanaman padi intensif. Penelitian dilaksanakan pada bulan Nopember 2009 - Februari 2010 di Kebun Percbaan BPTP Sumut, Pasar Miring, dengan jenis tanah inceptisol. Rancangan yang digunakan adalah Rancangan Petak Terpisah dengan tiga ulangan, Petak utama jerami (J) yang terdiri dari J0 = tanpa jerami, J1 = tunggul tanpa dekomposer, J2 = tunggul + dekomposer dan J3 = tunggul + jerami + dekomposer dan anak petak adalah paket pemupukan (P) terdiri dari P1 = pemupukan petani setempat, P2 = berdasarkan hasil analisa N, P dan K tanah, P3 = pemupukan berdasarkan Kepmentan No. 1 / 2006, P4 = pemupukan berdasarkan Bagan Warna Daun (BWD) untuk N dan Perangkat Uji Tanah Sawah (PUTS) untuk P dan K serta P5 = pemupukan berdasarkan simulasi piranti lunak PuPS 1.0. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pemberian jerami dapat memperbaiki sifat tanah, menaikkan produksi tetapi tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap pertumbuhan padi. Penambahan dekomposer pada jerami memberikan pengaruh yang lebih tinggi dibanding tanpa dekomposer. Paket pemupukan mempengaruhi sifat tanah, pertumbuhan dan produksi padi. Paket pemupukan PuPS 1.0 dengan penggunaan pupuk yang lebih sedikit dapat meningkatkan pertumbuhan dan produksi padi. Kombinasi jerami yang dicampur dekomposer dan paket pemupukan dapat memperbaiki sifat tanah dan meningkatkan pertumbuhan tetapi tidak berpengaruh nyata terhadap produksi.143 HalamanTesis Magiste

ABSTRACT. Effect of substitution of feather meal by rise bran on body weight gains, feed consumption, and feed efficiency of the Aceh bullocks. The experiment was conducted at Lambaro Angan Kecamatan Darussalam. Four Aceh bullocks, 12 – 14 months old, with 140 – 160 kg weight were used as experiment materials. Experimental design of latin Square (4 x 4) with the treatments of 0 percent, 1 percent, 2 percent, 3 percent of feather meal were applied. The result showed that the feed consumption has no significant different (P 0.05), but the body weight gains, and feed efficiency were highly significant different (P 0.01). The used of 3 percent (0.6 kg) feather meal in the ration has increased body weight gains and feed efficiency more than other treatments
The Nutritive Value of Cocoa Shell in Ruminants
ABSTRACT:
The nutritive value of cocoa shell was studied by in vitro and nylon bag technique and a feeding trial was also carried out in growing cattle. Cocoa shell contains 17.6% CP, 4.6% fat, 46.6% NDF,0.36% Ca, 0.61% P, 0.06% Na, U 61% Mg and 1.6 % theohromine. The dry matter (DM) digestibility of cocoa shell was 63.5 % and within 48 lir 50 % of the DM disappeared from the rinucri. Approximately 30 % of cocoa shell protein disappeared from the rumen after l 2 h and there was .small increase after that time. Whereas for fat, there was an increasing amount disappeared from the amen after l 2 hr but may reach the maximum value (73 %) at 48 hr. Cocoa shell is a good source of energy and minerals, P and Mg for ruminants Five levels of cocoa shell (CS), 7. 17, 27, 37 and 47 \u27A, were included in the concentrate to study (I) theobromine disappearance in the rumen, (II) its effect on growing cattle_ In experiment 1. 2 fistulated
Ougole fed elephant grass ad libitum plus 2 kg concentrate (with 7 % CS) were used to suspend the nylon bag containing different levels of CS. Almost all of theobromme disappeared from nylon bag at 24 lir incubation. aild there was no difference with 48 hr incubation In experiment II, thirty Ongolc (144 + 12.2 kg) were randorolv divided into 5 treatment groups recieving elephant grass ad libitum
concentrate (1.2% Live Weight) containing different levels of CS . The experiment lasted for go days. There were no differences in intake of dry matter (CM) and metabohsablc enery (ME) between the treatments. Live weight gain was not affected by feeding less than 27 CS in the concentrate (or
1 1% in the ration). However, at 37% CS (or 15 %
the ration), live weight gain staileti to decline At fins level the ration contains approximately 0.24 lYa theobronune which may be responsible for reduced utilisation of metabolisable energy.

The relationship between students\u27 self efficacy and their English language achievement
Many studies have been carried out on this concept of self efficacy in the academic settings. For example, Schunk (1995) stated that students when engaged in activities are affected by personal (e.g., goal setting, information processing) and situational influences (rewards, feedbacks). These provide students an idea on how well they learn. Self efficacy was enhanced when students perceived they performed well. On the other hand, Bandura, Barbaranelli, Caprara and Pastorelli (1996), reported that parents\u27 academic aspirations for their children, influence the children\u27s academic achievement directly or indirectly by influencing their self efficacy. Based on the theoretical explanation on self efficacy and findings of past studies, it is therefore the aim of this study to find out the relationship between students\u27 self efficacy and their English language achievement. In Malaysia, English is a second language but since 2003, English is the medium of instruction for mathematics and science subjects for year one, form one and form six students. Based on this scenario, it is therefore pertinent to find out whether performance in the English language is largely determined by their perceived English language efficacy. A descriptive-correlational study was conducted on 1,146 students from eight secondary schools in the Petaling district, Selangor. The instruments used to measure self efficacy were the Self Efficacy Scale developed by Bandura (1995) and the Self Efficacy Scale developed by Kim and Park (1997). The findings showed that 51 percent of students had high self efficacy while 48 percent showed low self efficacy. Correlational analysis showed positive correlations between several dimensions of self efficacy that is, academic achievement eficacy (r = 0.48, p = 0.001)other expectancy beliefs (r = 0.34, p = 0.005)and self assertiveness (r = 0.41, p = 0.005) with academic performance in English language. In conclusion, achievement in English language will improve when students have high self efficacy in the language. The implications are discussed in relation to teaching and learning within the school settings
