Tinjauan Terhadap Pasal 40 Undang-undang Nomor 5 Tahun 1990 Tentang Konservasi Sumber Daya Alam Hayati dan Ekosistemnya dengan Keberadaan Pasal 98 dan 99 Undang-undang Nomor 32 Tahun 2009 Tentang Perlindungan dan Pengelolaan Lingkungan Hidup / Oleh Felecia Wiryani
No full textWildlife Crime meningkat setiap tahunnya, namun pelaku hanya dikenakan hukuman kurang dari satu tahun dan denda sekitar lima juta rupiah. UUKSDAHE tidak memiliki hukuman minimal, sedangkan UUPPLH yang merupakan undang-undang payung dari UUKSDAHE sendiri sudah memiliki sanksi minimal dan direvisi. Apakah dengan ini cakupan dari substansi UUKSDAHE masih dapat menyesuaikan dengan keberadaan UUPPLH? Penulis meneliti hal ini menggunakan metode penelitian normatif dengan pendekatan undang-undang dan konsep. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian melalui pustaka dan wawancara dengan narasumber (ahli hukum dan praktisi), menunjukan bahwa UUKSDAHE sudah tidak sesuai dengan keberadaan UUPPLH karena UUKSDAHE yang merupakan undang-undang yang berdasar dan bersumber kepada UULH belum pernah direvisi sesuai dengan UULH yang telah mengalami revisi hingga menjadi UUPPLH. Maka UUKSDAHE tidak dapat dikatakan berfungsi terutama sanksi dalam UUKSDAHE yang tidak mencantumkan sanski minimal sehingga memungkinkan bagi pelaku dijatuhi hukuman yang ringan dan tidak memberikan efek jera. Sebaiknya pemerintah meninjau kembali UUKSDAHE dan merevisinya dengan mencantumkan sanksi minimal, memberi kewenangan pada polhut untuk melakukan penangkapan, memberi alternatif penyelesaian sengketa, sehingga UUKSDAHE dapat berfungsi baik dan relevan dengan perkembangan zaman dan UUPPLH. Pemerintah juga sebaiknya memberi pendidikan mendalam mengenai lingkungan kepada masyarakat dan praktisi hukum sehingga timbul kesadaran pentingnya melestarikan kehati dan pelaku perusakan lingkungan mendapatkan hukuman yang setimpal dengan perbuatannya.

Interview with Felecia Hayes - OH 734
No full textThis interview was conducted by Liv Paxton with Felecia A. Hayes as part of Project 2020: A Collaborative Oral History. Hayes reflects on her experiences as a young Black woman in sports, particularly as a track and field athlete. She discusses the personal, social, and educational challenges she faced amid the COVID-19 pandemic and the critical year 2020. She also details her relation to the Black Lives Matter movement (racism, police brutality, social unrest, etc.) and her subsequent social activism. Hayes concludes by reflecting on her experience as a Black woman, whether an athlete, student, or individual, navigating white spaces at the College of William and Mary and in society at large.
Felecia A. Hayes was a graduate student at the College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, VA at the time of the interview. She has since earned a Master of Education degree and is now an elementary educator in Fairfax County Public Schools. Hayes was a NCAA sprinter on the W&M track and field team as an undergraduate student.
Spearheaded by Dr. O. Jennifer Dixon-McKnight, an Assistant Professor of History & African American Studies at Winthrop University, Project 2020 is best summarized in her words: “The goal was to conduct interviews that explored the various ways in which Americans were experiencing and being impacted by the various watershed moments that emerged during 2020 (the global pandemic, social unrest, financial challenges, issues with healthcare, etc.).https://digitalcommons.winthrop.edu/oralhistoryprogram/1652/thumbnail.jp
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Diabetes, COVID-19, and questions unsolved
No full textRecent evidence suggests a role for Diabetes Mellitus in adverse outcomes from COVID-19 infection; yet the underlying mechanisms are not clear. Moreover, attention has turned to prophylactic vaccination to protect the population from COVID-19-related illness and mortality. We performed a comprehensive peer-reviewed literature search on an array of key terms concerning diabetes and COVID-19 seeking to address the following questions: 1. What role does diabetes play as an accelerator for adverse outcomes in COVID-19?; 2. What mechanisms underlie the differences in outcomes seen in people with diabetes?; 3. Are vaccines against COVID-19 efficacious in people with diabetes? The current literature demonstrates that diabetes is associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes from COVID-19 infection, and post-COVID sequelae. Potential mechanisms include dysregulation of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 2, Furin, CD147, and impaired immune cell responses. Hyperglycaemia is a key exacerbator of these mechanisms. Limited studies are available on COVID-19 vaccination in people with diabetes; however, the current literature suggests that vaccination is protective against adverse outcomes for this population. In summary, people with diabetes are a high-risk group that should be prioritised in vaccination efforts. Glycaemic optimisation is paramount to protecting this group from COVID-19-associated risk. Unsolved questions remain as to the molecular mechanisms underlying the adverse outcomes seen in people with diabetes; the functional impact of post-COVID symptoms on people with diabetes, their persistence, and management; how long-term vaccine efficacy is affected by diabetes, and the antibody levels that confer protection from adverse outcomes in COVID-19
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Exploring the relationship of organizational culture on the employees' satisfaction and performance at SeDidik Sdn. Bhd. Kuching / Felecia Durong
Get PDFOrganization culture is the basic pattern of shared assumptions, values and beliefs governing the way employees within and organizations think about and act on problems and opportunities while employees’ satisfaction is the good feeling that they have when achieved something or when something that you wanted to happen does happen. In the other hand, employees’ performance is the value and satisfaction feeling in the task done and delivering sustained success to organizations by improving capabilities of individuals and teams (Armstrong and Baron, 1998). The study exploring the relationship of organizational culture on the employees’ satisfaction and employees’ performance in SeDidik Sdn.Bhd. A random sampling of 150 questionnaires distributed to the respondents. The objective is to study the relationship on the respondents’ profile towards the characteristics of organizational culture (innovation and risk taking, outcome orientation, people orientation, team orientation and aggressiveness). It shows that the employees’ are really aware based on the strong relationship. It also uses to investigate the level of organizational culture towards the employees’ performance and satisfaction.
