The Rubik’s Cube of Identity
This chapter is an autoethnographic account of my working-class background into the lonely world of academia. It shares a small glimpse into my life journey from an intersectionality lens of being British-born, of Pakistani heritage and a Muslim male. Thus, my working-class identity is one of several challenging identities amalgamated into one and silently inter- changeable. This chapter is a rare occurrence to view my world from an introspective position. It shares the heavy constraints and challenges that of us from marginalised groups face daily. You will read how I cannot sever integral parts of myself which are deeply infused with the academic I am becoming. All of which I have struggled to maintain both personally and professionally. Subsequently, this chapter shares the complexity of these identities, my constant negotiation of them and my ongoing adaptation of now being uncomfortably viewed as middle-class
POTENTIAL IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON PLANT DIVERSITY OF HILLY AREAS OF AZAD KASHMIR AND THEIR MITIGATION: A REVIEW
Azad Kashmir has variety of mountain ecosystems which are rich in floral and faunal diversity. These ecosystems are fragile and are under stress due to various natural and anthropogenic pressures. Mountain ecosystems of Azad Kashmir are more vulnerable to global warming and are expected to show its impacts rapidly. Climate change may cause major changes in distribution ranges of different vegetation types. As a result of climate change, the area of three vegetation groups (alpine, grassland/arid woodlands and deserts) is expected to decrease and the areas of five types (cold conifer/mixed woodland, cold conifer/mixed forests, temperate conifer/mixed forests, warm conifer/mixed forests, and steppe/arid shrub lands) are expected to increase. Climate change is going to affect conservation of plant species and ecosystems by causing direct loss of plant species and intensify the effects of existing threats such as habitat degradation, deforestation and over-harvesting of plants by local communities, pollution and invasive species. These stresses, acting individually and collectively on species, communities and ecosystems, are depleting and will continue to deplete biodiversity. The negative impacts of climate change are multi-dimensional and wide-ranging. Their mitigation requires an integrated and coordinated policy response for conservation of plant resources. These measures include a regular monitoring and observation system, restoration of degraded habitats and forests, identifying new solutions involving cross-sectoral linkages to conserve biological diversity of Azad Kashmir by supporting the intricate and complex responses of species and ecosystems to climate change
Transboundary Haze Pollution dalam Perspektif Hukum Lingkungan Internasional
Pencemaran udara diartikan sebagai adanya satu atau lebih pencemar yang masuk ke dalam udara atmosfer yang terbuka, yang dapat berbentuk sebagai debu, uap, gas, kabut, bau, asap, atau embun yang dicirikan bentuk jumlahnya, sifat dan lamanya. Dengan demikian disimpulkan bahwa yang dimaksud pencemaran lintas batas tersebut adalah pencemaran udara yang berasal baik seluruh atau sebagian dari suatu negara yang menimbulkan dampak dalam suatu wilayah yang berada dibawah jurisdiksi negara lain. Dalam hukum Internasional, pertanggungjawaban negara timbul dalam hal negara yang bersangkutan merugikan Negara lain, dan dibatasi hanya terhadap perbuatan yang melanggar hukum Internasional. Kebakaran hutan dan lahan di Indonesia terjadi hampir setiap tahun dan seringkali mengakibatkan asap lintas batas yang merugikan negara tetangga terdekat di lingkungan ASEAN seperti Singapura, Malaysia dan Brunei Darussalam. Oleh karena itu, maka Indonesia beserta negara ASEAN lainnya sepakat untuk mengatasi kebakaran dan dampak asapnya tersebut melalui penandatanganan ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution
Harmonisasi Konvensi Cyber Crime Dalam Hukum Nasional
Perkembangan teknologi informasi menimbulkan dampak positif dan negatif dalam kehidupan masyarakat. Salah satu dampak negatifnya adalah timbulnya kejahatan baru yang menggunakan komputer dan jaringannya, baik sebagai target kejahatan maupun sebagai alat atau sarana kejahatan (cyber crime). Pemerintah telah mengundangkan UU ITE sebagai upaya untuk menanggulangi kejahatan tersebut, dan mulai berlaku tahun 2008. Agar UU tersebut dapat efektif mencapai tujuan diberlakukannya, maka perlu dilakukan kajian sejauhmana penyusunan UU tersebut telah mengakomodir bentuk-bentuk cyber crime yang dikenal selama ini, baik dalam instrumen hukum Internasional maupun yang terjadi dalam praktik kehidupan sehari-hari. Dari hasil kajian terlihat bahwa masih ada bentuk cyber crime yang belum diatur dalam UU ITE, di antaranya adalah spamming, yang tidak menimbulkan kerugian secara ekonomis namun menimbulkan gangguan dan perasaan tidak menyenangkan pada pihak korban. Di sisi lain pengaturan kerjasama antar penegak hukum maupun kerjasama Internasional dalam UU masih membutuhkan pengaturan lebih lanjut, agar penerapan UU ini dapat efektif menanggulangi cyber crime yang seringkali bersifat lintas batas teritorial
Integrasi Pendidikan Karakter Dalam Pembelajaran Berbasis Interkultural
: Character education has been initiated by the government and become the mainstream in various levels of education. For higher education institutions educating prospective teachers, character education should be made collective and sustained efforts. Programs and issues of character education must concern all civitas academica so that they possess character competence in the forms of moral knowing, moral feeling, and moral action. Character education can be conducted through its integration in the teaching and learning process of a foreign language (German). One of the modes of integration is through the interculture-based teaching and learning. With such a mode, the students are expected to gain intercultural competence (interculturelle competenzen). It is this competence that will become the basis for intercultural adaptation and communication while maintaining the Indonesian identity and character
Graffiti Dalam Acara “Feels Like Home”
Graffiti merupakan salah satu cabang seni yang berkembang dalam lingkungan masyarakat modern saat ini. Di kota- kota besar seperti Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Jogjakarta, hingga Medan hal ini jelas terlihat dari banyaknya gambar graffitinbsp; menghiasi sudut ndash; sudut kota dan banyaknya acara graffiti di kota-kota besar.
Tidak hanya sampai di kota-kota besar, perkembangan graffiti di Indonesia pun telah mewabah hingga kota Tuban, Jawa Timur. Di kota ini graffiti ada sejak tahun 2005. graffiti telah masuk ke kota ini dan menjadi lifestyle bagi para pelakunya. MCA (Me Can Awesome) adalah salah satu kelompok tertua, terbentuk sejak 14 Februari 2006. Tahun ini mereka akan mengadakan sebuah acara dengan judul ldquo;Feels Like Homerdquo;. Acara ini merupakan acara peringatan hari jadi ke-8 yang di selenggarakan di Tuban, Jawa Timur. Penulis beranggapan bahwa acara ini merupakan subjek yang tepat untuk meneliti perkembangan seni graffiti di kota tersebut baik secara ideologi, proses, maupun visualisasi.
Kata Kunci : Graffiti, Feels Like Home
Graffiti is one of the branches of the arts thrive in today's modern society. In big cities such as Jakarta, Bandung, Surabaya, Yogyakarta, to field it is clearly evident from the many pictures of graffiti adorning the corner - the corner of the city and many graffiti events in major cities.
Not only in the big cities, the development of graffiti in Indonesia has also endemic to the city of Tuban, East Java. In this city there since 2005. Graffiti has entered into this city and become a lifestyle for the perpetrators. MCA (Me Can Awesome) is one of the oldest group, formed since February 14, 2006. This year they will hold an event titled Feels Like Home. This event is an event marking the 8th anniversary which was held in Tuban, East Java. The author considers that this event is a proper subject for researching the development of graffiti art in the city either ideology, process, and visualization.

Revisiting and Induced Quasielastic Scattering from Nuclei in Sub-GeV Energy Region
We present the results of charged current quasielastic(CCQE) scattering cross
sections from free as well as bound nucleons like in , ,
and nuclear targets in 1 GeV
energy region.
The results are obtained using local Fermi gas model with and without RPA
effect.
The differences those may arise in the electron and muon production cross
sections due to the different lepton mass, uncertainties in the axial dipole
mass and pseudoscalar form factor, and due to the inclusion of second
class currents have been highlighted for neutrino/antineutrino induced
processes.Comment: Published in Journal of the Physical Society of Japan (NuInt-2015
