Hubungan tawakal dengan tingkat stres pada usia dewasa awal di Desa Bangunharja

Pada kehidupan sehari – hari seseorang yang berada di tahap usia dewasa awal mungkin banyak mengalami hal baru dalam hidupnya. Karena pada tahapan perkembangan ini seseorang akan didorong untuk beradaptasi dengan lingkungan sekitarnya. Serta tuntutan yang sekian banyak tersebut mampu mendorong emosi negatif untuk muncul salah satunya adalah stres. Hal ini disebabkan dari kurangnya kesiapan seseorang untuk menghadapi segala stimulus yang mungkin akan muncul. Sebagai seorang individu atau makhluk menjadi sangat manusiawi itu wajar sekali. Namun Allah swt. telah menganugerahkan nikmat iman dan taqwa kepada kita sehingga tidak perlu risau dengan kehidupan duniawi. Tawakal adalah salah satu solusi dalam menghadapi kerasnya kehidupan. Segalanya telah diatur sedemikian rupa agar kita tidak perlu terlalu memikirkan dunia. Maka apabila di usia dewasa awal ini mengalami stres itu hal wajar namun ingat Allah selalu ada. Penelitian ini dilakukan menggunakan pendekatan asosiatif deskriptif, pada responden sebanyak 35 orang. Dilakukan dengan penyebaran kuesioner menggunakan metode random sampling sederhana untuk melihat bagaimana tawakal berpengaruh terhadap tingkat stres pada usia dewasa awal yang ada di daerah Desa Bangunharja. Sehingga dapat dilihat dari data yang didapatkan bahwa 30 responden dengan tawakal diangka 87,5%, 5 diantaranya memiliki tingkat tawakal yang sedang. Sedangkan untuk tingkat stress 18 responden diangka 51,4% tingkat rendah, 14 responden 40% ditingkat sedang, 3 responden diangka 8,6% tingkat stres tinggi. Maka dapat ditarik kesimpulan bahwa semakin tinggi tingkat tawakal seseorang artinya semakin rendahnya stres yang dialami seseorang

VIABILIDADE MERCADOLÓGICA, TÉCNICA, ECONÔMICA E FINANCEIRA PARA EXPANSÃO DO SERVIÇO DE TRANSPORTE COLETIVO NA CIDADE DE MARAVILHA, SC: O CASO DA VEGA TRANSPORTES

 A necessidade por transporte coletivo eficiente vem crescendo dia a dia, pois esse é considerado uma forma de mobilidade urbana econômica, socialmente correta e com um apelo ecológico coerente às demandas da sociedade contemporânea.  Nos grandes centros urbanos já é muito utilizado, o que faz com que diminua consideravelmente o número de carros e motos circulando pelas ruas, fazendo o trânsito fluir com maior rapidez, diminuindo os congestionamentos. Para comprovar a existência de demanda por transporte coletivo, executou-se uma pesquisa, cujo objetivo geral foi verificar a viabilidade técnica, econômica, financeira e mercadológica para a expansão do serviço de transporte coletivo na cidade de Maravilha, SC, pela empresa Beta Transportes. De forma especifica, buscou-se mapear a existência de demanda por esse serviço de transporte coletivo urbano, analisando a necessidade de aumentar algumas linhas de ônibus no Município de Maravilha, SC. A pesquisa caracterizou-se por uma abordagem quantitativa, descritiva, com dados coletados por meio de questionário estruturado, aplicado pelos pesquisadores. Utilizou-se o método de amostragem  não probabilística intencional. A partir dos resultados obtidos, foram realizadas as análises descritivas e a triangulação de dados coletados no questionário, bem como de dados analisados em documentos da empresa, verificando sua capacidade técnica e operacional. O estudo confirmou que o projeto é mercadologicamente viável, já que a pesquisa constatou demanda existente, e é notável a necessidade de disponibilizar novas linhas de transporte coletivo. Na avaliação da viabilidade econômica e financeira, os custos apresentaram-se menores do que as entradas, portanto, as projeções de fluxo de caixa são positivas, bem como o demonstrativo do resultado. Os indicadores de ponto de equilíbrio operacional, payback, TMA, TIR e IBC confirmam a viabilidade da implantação do projeto, pois se enquadram nos critérios estabelecidos para considerar uma empresa lucrativa.Palavras-chave: Transporte coletivo. Viabilidade técnica. Demanda municipal

Current status of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) of farmed shrimp in Malaysia

A report about a disease problem in cultured whiteleg shrimp (Penaeus vannamei) was first received by the National Fish Health Research Center (NaFisH) in 2011 from Perak State showing signs of white feces and slow death leading to serious mortality rate. Later, in September of the same year, the Malaysian Shrimp Farmers Association (MSFA) reported to Department of Fisheries (DOF) severe mortalities in almost all of the whiteleg shrimp farms throughout Peninsular Malaysia. Sampling of shrimps for disease diagnosis was then conducted by NaFisH. The bacteriological and histopathological examinations revealed respectively the isolation of V. parahemolyticus and massive sloughing of hepatopancreatic epithelial cells. The disease was subsequently identified as acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND). From our 3-year study, the annual prevalence rates of AHPND were 50%, 26% and 73% in 2011, 2012 and 2013, respectively. At present, AHPND still persists in Malaysia but at a lower prevalence. The risk factors associated with the disease were studied, however, varied environmental and management data analyzed were inconclusive to relate any one parameter directly to the disease. To help ensure the early detection of AHPND, an experimental observation study on `gut scorecard was carried out and this was confirmed by PCR and histopathology. Validation of this technique has yet to be carried out to ensure its reliability. We also examined the potential use of some commercial products such as probiotics and disinfectants available in the market but unfortunately results showed that they were not effective in controlling AHPND. Control measures applied by the farmers such as the use of probiotics were also verified but data generated likewise appeared to be inconclusive. On the contrary, our preliminary study on the antibacterial property of the plant extracts, i.e. betel and lemongrass, incorporated in the feed showed some prophylactic and chemotherapeutic potential against AHPND. However, comprehensive in vitro and in vivo trials are still currently being undertaken to elucidate its efficacy and practical applications. To ensure the shrimp industry s sustainability in Malaysia, results of our ongoing and future studies aimed at preventing and controlling unwarranted outbreaks of AHPND and other emerging transboundary diseases of penaeid shrimps will be continually disseminated to shrimp farmers and pertinent stakeholders

Step by step: reconstruction of terrestrial animal movement paths by dead-reckoning

Background: Research on wild animal ecology is increasingly employing GPS telemetry in order to determine animal movement. However, GPS systems record position intermittently, providing no information on latent position or track tortuosity. High frequency GPS have high power requirements, which necessitates large batteries (often effectively precluding their use on small animals) or reduced deployment duration. Dead-reckoning is an alternative approach which has the potential to ‘fill in the gaps’ between less resolute forms of telemetry without incurring the power costs. However, although this method has been used in aquatic environments, no explicit demonstration of terrestrial dead-reckoning has been presented.Results: We perform a simple validation experiment to assess the rate of error accumulation in terrestrial dead-reckoning. In addition, examples of successful implementation of dead-reckoning are given using data from the domestic dog Canus lupus, horse Equus ferus, cow Bos taurus and wild badger Meles meles.Conclusions: This study documents how terrestrial dead-reckoning can be undertaken, describing derivation of heading from tri-axial accelerometer and tri-axial magnetometer data, correction for hard and soft iron distortions on the magnetometer output, and presenting a novel correction procedure to marry dead-reckoned paths to ground-truthed positions. This study is the first explicit demonstration of terrestrial dead-reckoning, which provides a workable method of deriving the paths of animals on a step-by-step scale. The wider implications of this method for the understanding of animal movement ecology are discussed
