The present paper investigates the ideological manipulation that creeps in translated news headlines and falsifies the produced translated version since such process involves both the imposition of dominant ideologies and the negative portrayals of the other in mediated news. Thus, international news translation basically exploits and manipulates the original news events in such a way that misrepresents the image of otherness and creates a positive representation of patrons. In this vein, this paper brings to the fore the influence of extra-textual factors on the translation of headlines. Many strategies and translation techniques are utilized and translators do intervene to align produced headlines with the two networks’ ideological affiliations and editorial policies. The present paper adopts descriptive approach where I attempted to compare translated news headlines and pinpoint the alterations and transformations undertaken over them, also it aims to call for rethinking strategies undertaken while translating global news in a cosmopolitan context where openness to the other and appreciation of difference are conducive to an effective cross cultural and linguistic interactions. Accordingly, it proposes foreignizing approach to global news translation because it retains the image of otherness which is essential in the original event.

Indonesia is a country rich in natural resources, both on land and throughout the waters of the archipelago. The rights of the Indonesian people contain 2 (two) elements, namely the element of ownership and the element of the task of authority to regulate and lead the control and use of the joint land it owns, the authority to regulate the control of the use of the joint land is delegated to the State. To regulate the rights of the Indonesian nation as the highest right holder, it is authorized to the State of the Republic of Indonesia which is the powerful organization of the entire people. However, it should be understood that there are still many problems faced in land management, especially mining areas that intersect with forestry and plantations. The purpose of this study is to observe and evaluate the weaknesses in land management which result in overlapping land in the mining area. The method used in this research is Mixed Methods. The strategy in this study uses the Concurrent Embedded Strategy method. The use of Concurrent Embedded Strategy in research will be implemented in the form of qualitative and quantitative data collection at the same time. The reality that will be examined in this research is the coordination of overcoming overlapping land at 47 IUP OP locations in Kutai Kartanegara Regency, in terms of the factors that influence the success of coordination. The lack of coordination in overcoming overlapping land is dominantly caused by the behavior of the apparatus which is formed by the dimensions and indicators of its formation, namely the mandate and the system. Agencies that issue land use permits only have land-use data within their jurisdiction, this is due to the absence of a centralized integrated land data system that can be accessed by all agencies and stakeholders.

There are several competing theories about the ultimate fate of the universe and possibility of anything preceding the Big Bang, while other physicists and philosophers refuse to speculate, doubting that information about prior states will ever be accessible.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, educational practices have been disrupted in a variety of ways affecting both students and teachers. Ample evidence among many others is the fact that students are required to switch their platforms of learning, from on-site to online learning. Research conveys that this alteration has significantly affected students in various aspects such as places to study, time management, and their health. This study therefore aims to identify problems that come from online learning encountered by students themselves through the means of survey. Thus, we had collected data from 171 high school students and school leavers, in 4 categories: 1) the level of stress, 2) the level of loneliness, 3) the level of motivation, 4) the average sleep hour during the online learning period, using an online survey. The results show that there are correlations as follows, 1) positive correlation between stress and loneliness, 2) negative correlation between stress and sleep hour, and 3) negative correlation between motivation and loneliness. Screen time affects stress levels which in turn increase the loneliness of students and decrease sleep hours. This study raises concerns to educators, teachers, and parents that their children need to be understood, and appropriate support can help them overcome challenges during this difficult time.

The United Nations (UN) defines domestic violence as behavioural patterns in a relationship to gain or maintain power and control over an intimate partner. Domestic violence compromises the physical, emotional, mental, and economic well-being of victims. In worst-case scenarios, domestic violence can result in the death of its victims. The advent of the COVID-19 pandemic has been accompanied by increased reports of domestic violence, primarily against women. The World Bank affirmed that before the COVID-19 pandemic, domestic violence was a global pandemic affecting 1 in 3 women in their lifetime –a staggering statistic. In contrast to the conspicuous nature of most pandemics, the domestic violence pandemic is silent and difficult to detect. Consequently, victims find themselves trapped in a shadow pandemic. The socio-ecological model was proposed to address this problem to achieve a durable and practical resolution. A narrative review method was employed to gather the literature. Articles published from 1995 to 2021 were searched using Google Scholar, PubMed, and Elsevier. Original research papers and articles highlighting the factors influencing the rise of domestic violence during COVID-19 were selected. Supplemental information was retrieved from the websites of international health agencies. After a complete review, 36 sources that met the inclusion criteria were selected. The research identified several significant drivers of domestic violence during the COVID-19 pandemic: economic hardship in the setting of social unrest; low socioeconomic status; low educational attainment; mental illness; family dysfunction; and substance abuse. Other added risk factors included the shutdown of usual safe havens to curtail virus spread and the societal tolerance of violence against women.

Consumers awareness of behaviors affecting the environment is increasing, and many people choose to use eco fashion products. Based on the theoretical framework of fashion acceptance, developed by Sproles (1979) combined with empirical research, the author has built a theoretical framework with four shopping-oriented factors; fashion-oriented elements, environmental concerns, and environment-friendly behaviors. From the results of a survey of 450 Vietnamese consumers, all four factors positively influence the consumption behavior of eco-fashion products of Vietnamese consumers. The factor that has the strongest impact on consumer behavior of eco-fashion products is the fashion-oriented factor.

Discrimination in the workplace has been all through history, andiscrimination in the workplace. In the model, balanced scorecards include managerial infod it exists today, and there will be in the future. Some people suggest that get used to it and benefit from it. But this study suggests honest and honorable have to stand against Discrimination in the name of humanity, the rule of law, religion, and better management. The study suggests that one of the best ways to stand against Discrimination is to provide and use correct, reliable, and concrete managerial accounting information. Kaplan and Norton (1992) developed balanced scorecards for managerial purposes and performance measurement. Balanced scorecards used for strategy designing of companies. In this study, balanced scorecards are designed and set to explore and exhibit the inappropriateness and rmation such as time, quality of product, difficulty, authority, salaries, bonuses, Etc., to assess the appropriateness of decisions or existence of discrimination. These measurements are vital for providing concrete evidence for managerial or jurisdictional cases. Standing against discrimination in the workplace first requires power and determination. But secondly, it requires proof: documents. One of the most reliable documents is (management and cost) accounting information. Discrimination during the promotion is characteristically an organized crime. Harmonious and compatible work of different individuals and organizations is essential for realizing crime. The realization of the law, the prosecution of an organized crime, and restoration of victims rights require definitively provable, concrete documents and analysis. For this purpose, this study develops a managerial accounting information model that internal auditors and inspectors can efficiently use. It can also benefit decision-makers, business people, internal and external auditors, unions judges, and other governmental bodies to investigate or take decisions about workplace discrimination.

After analysing was known that formal contract had a significant positive effect on village funds allocation with value of 0.355. it means both head villager and secretaries had the competence and authority to carry it out, as Pascal (1997), Meinard (1997), Sarwoko (2010: 28) and Syofyan (2019). Hypothesis is accepted. Transaction costs have a negative effect and the hypothesis is rejected. Transaction costs refer to the governance structure as (Klein, 1999: 464-466), (Williamson, 1985). This result is different from the research by Syofyan (2019). Agency costs have coefficient value 0.072. It means agency cost significant to village funds. The hypothesis is accepted. Agency costs in this study are coaching and supervision that are positively related to the total allocation of village funds. This result is in line with Syofyan (2019). Furthermore, the principal agent conflict is significantly positively related to the allocation of village funds with a coefficient of 0.26. The hypothesis is rejected and this result differs with Syofyan (2019) who found a negative relationship. The principal agent relationship variable is accepted and this result is in line with Syofyan (2019). The variable of principal-agent relationship has significant positif effect to allocation of village funds with coefficient is 0.144. Hypothesis is accepted. This is in line with Syofyan (2019) who found that this positive relationship occurred because each party carried out its duties according to the applicable provisions. In the theory of public institutions, the principal agent relationship such as the Village Head and the Village Secretary needs to consider various aspects that support the success of the institutional relationship. Therefore, institutional research like this can be used as an initial basis in regulating development policies, especially village development.

This experimental research study was conducted to compare the round-trip time of commonly used network cables among Internet Cafés in Estancia, Iloilo. Specifically, it focused on the brand names of network cable and the distance of cable from the access point to remote terminal. This study attempted to determine whether there was no significant difference among cables which differs from their brand names and distances. The research instrument used in gathering the data was the researchers-made survey form which was submitted to the three panels of experts for face validation before the instrument was given to Internet Cafe Owners and computer stores in the Municipality of Estancia. The statistical tools used were the frequency counts, percentages, rank, arithmetic mean, and chi-square. The results revealed that there were significant differences in the round-trip time between brands of network cables when tested at long and short distances from access point to remote terminal. It was found out that there was no significant difference in the overall round-trip time between brands of network cables when tested at long, medium, and short distances from access point to remote terminal. This simply showed that Internet Cafés can make use of any brand available in the market because they perform the same. However, among the three brands being tested it was also revealed that the best brand of network cables in terms of

Male infertility refers to the inability of a man to have children, after one year of regular unprotected sexual relations without contraceptive measures. The field of fertility has become a public health problem for some time, in this regard that it is now well established that the spermocytogram is a medical examination corresponding to the cytological and morphological analysis of spermatozoa, allowing the evaluation of male fertility. In our study, we compare the analysis of sperm with two automatons, the Sperm Class Analyzer (SCA) and the Spermolyzer, on 50 samples of sperm from voluntary men, with the aim of establishing the percentage of normal and abnormal spermatozoa and some specific anomalies, that is to say, the length and the identification of the shape. The results obtained indicate the accuracy and reliability of these automatons, showing more defined analyses with the use of the SCA, in contrast to the insignificant data rendered by the use of the Spermolyzer.

It is already well established that the percentage of normal sperm and specific sperm abnormalities has diagnostic value in vivo. The spermocytogram is an important part of the analysis of human semen, this kind of analysis, simple at first sight, brings real difficulties because the results from one laboratory to another are very relatively reliable. When analyzing abnormal sperm morphology, the observer has to estimate the respective size of the different spermatozoa or their components, the length of all the spermatozoa (too small or too big) and to identify the shape (sperm with a coiled flagellum, or no flagellum as an example). The objective of our work is first of all to make a comparative study of the results of the morphological evaluation of 50 semen samples between the manual technique versus the automated one (SCA) in order to find a possible correlation between these two techniques. According to the analytical stage of the manual and automatic results, the two latter led us to obtain significantly different percentages.

eaching science in informal learning environments (ILE) are of great importance for the science course. In this learning process, students behave like scientists and develop their high-level thinking skills. To establish a connection between daily life and natural sciences is another way to add ILE into formal education. In the literature, many studies declared a few teachers teach science in ILE. The purpose of this study, to determine the difficulties or problems faced by science teachers in the process of science teaching using ILE and what kind of solutions teachers offer about these problems or difficulties. The research was carried out by using descriptive research. The study group consists of 144 science teachers, selecting by easily accessible sampling method, one of the purposeful sampling methods. Ten open-ended questions were asked to the participants. The content analysis method was used to analyze the data. As a result, teachers had problems/difficulties in managerial-based, student-based, parent-based, ILE-based, school location-based, economy-based, curriculum-based and teacher skill and knowledge-based.

In the field of education, the presence of technology has helped teachers a lot in carrying out learning. Future education cannot only focus on cognitive aspects. To face various problems and challenges of the times in the future, students are expected to have much better attitudes, skills, and knowledge competencies, to be more creative, innovative, and productive. The purpose of this research is to analyze the feasibility and effectiveness of the development e-module Biology based on Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) on the material structure and function of plant and animal tissues to improve the critical thinking skills of students in class XI MIPA SMA that are valid, practical, and effective. The results showed that the e-module Biology based on Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) on the structure and function of plant and animal tissues to improve critical thinking skills of students in class XI MIPA SMA has a very valid category with a validator value of 89.33%, very practical 93.33% by Biology teachers and students with a score of 87.52% and the results of the effectiveness test of the CTL - based e-module showed that it was very effective, there was a significant difference between classes that used CTL - based e-modules and classes that did not use CTL - based e-modules . So, it can be concluded that the CTL-based Biology e-module that has been developed is very valid, very practical, and very effective.

Rational judgments and decisions should be based on solid logic and rationale as well as numeric variables. On the other hand, irrational judgments and decisions rely on feelings, linguistic variables. Appointed executives who manage acting businesses must demonstrate solid logic, numeric and linguistic justifications for their decisions to the stakeholders: business owners, government, share-stakeholders. The study examines the justification and logic of the four main factors why humanity fights against discrimination during the promotion: legally, humanitarian reasons, religious grounds, and administrative reasons. The study strongly suggests that discrimination during the promotion is against the law, religion, humanity, and efficient management. For these reasons, honest, fair people and organizations have to fight against discrimination; in the name of law, in the name of religion, in the name of humanity, and in the name of managerial efficiency. Discriminators, who are unfairly making the lives of innocent employees, their children, and partners hell, have to be punished by the law, religion, humanity, and management for realizing humanistic and holistic justice.

Background: Medical Officers are one of the key staff categories in the healthcare service. Globally there is high demand for medical officers and the government as well as private organizations have major task in retaining the services of highly trained and competent medical staff. Preventive health sector plays a vital role in the healthcare system. Medical Officers of Health (MOH) are the Medical Officers providing preventive health services in Sri Lanka. This study was carried out to explore the factors affecting retention of Medical Officers of Health in the preventive health sector in Sri Lanka. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out among Medical Officers of Health in the Colombo district which has 18 MOH Offices with 64 Medical Officers. A pre-tested self-administered questionnaire was used as the study instrument. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis, correlation and regression analysis. Results: Of the 74 Medical Officers 64 responded with a response rate of response rate of 86.5%. Regression analysis showed that all four variables; recognition, work schedule, remuneration and responsibility are positively and significantly correlated with retention of Medical Officers of Health in the preventive health sector. The variable work schedule showed the highest impact to the retention of Medical Officers of Health. Conclusions: In order to retain trained Medical Officers of Health in the Sri Lankan preventive health sector, health authorities should address the factors that influence retention. If policy makers fail to address these factors the preventive health services will be negative impact due to shortage of key service providers.

The paper aims to develop a new concept for stratifying cancer patients using their biomarker profiles. The study leading to HCC only assessed the diagnostic aspect of recurrent cancer. However, the next clinical evaluations will be geared towards predicting recurrence. Thus, the finalized platform should make it possible to determine marker profiles in a clinical context and to develop a set of rules for predicting the progression of the pathology, more particularly of recurrence. Such a predictive tool would be beneficial for the management of patients with bladder cancer. Indeed, the latter has a high rate of recurrence and improving the determination of the risk of recurrence would allow optimal and personalized care for each patient (Ahram M, 2008). Finally, this concept of personalized medicine thanks to the information obtained by the analysis of several parameters on our platform can be applied to other cancers or pathologies.Individual markers could play a role important diagnostic or predictive, and this clinical utility in the laboratories clinical automated manner. The arrays of CpG methylation islands have allowed the identification of new individual epigenetic profiles and candidates that are clinically and biologically relevant in the tumorigenesis and progression of cancer, with utility for the early detection of the disease (Burger M, 2013).

The dividend payout ratio determines the investment decisions made by investors and determines the companys financial condition. Generally, investors prefer companies with high and relatively stable profit sharing as a signal for the prospect of the companys performance in the future. Dividend distribution is based on the companys dividend policy. Not all companies distribute dividends because dividend distribution by the company will reduce the amount of retained earnings thereby reducing the number of the companys internal sources of funds even though the company earns high profits.
