    This research is a study of diplomacy which discusses about the impact of diplomatic relations after the wiretapping case conducted by the American against the French. Unauthorized wiretapping is an unlawful act which may interfere with a person\u27s privacy. However, in the context of inter-state, tapping is actually a common practice, performed to determine the actualintentions of a country, especially with regard to the national interests. Besides, detailed information about the policy and its implementationneeds to be known in order to anticipate and prevent acts of surprise. Unauthorized wiretapping is a disgraceful act and a violation of ethics diplomacy, especially if applied to friendly countries as carried out by United States toward France.Herefore it is necessary to take bold steps yet precise and measurable actions. Crime or Cybercrime technology that refers to to cyberspace (cyberspace) and the criminal who uses a computer. Under these conditions, the relationship between the country much easier than before, a country may have a problem with other countries. One case that is happening now is a matter of American espionage conducted against the France. Actions taken by the American influence on diplomatic relations between the two countries, which has existed for a long time. Franch government\u27s take action to protect the state and its citizens in case of espionage

    This study explores the characteristics of international cyber offenders prosecuted in the U.S. Our findings to a large extent correspond with general studies about cyber offenders with a few important exceptions. First, the average age of the offenders in our study is slightly higher than others that do not focus exclusively on international offenders. Second, while this research confirms that China is among the leading country in committing cybercrimes when it comes to committing particular types of cybercrimes, the offenders come from other countries as well such as Romania, Estonia, Ukraine, South Africa, and Nigeria. Third, our results show that in each of the cases from the sample, the international offenders received prison sentences alone, or complemented with a fine or restitution. In addition, the sentence length of citizens of African countries is significantly higher than the ones of citizens of other geographic regions. Prison sentences for cyber frauds and identity thefts were also found to be much lengthier than sentences for other types of cybercrimes. Implications are provided

    Self-incompatibility in apricot: identifying pollination requirements to optimize fruit production

    Get PDF
    In recent years, an important renewal of apricot cultivars is taking place worldwide, with the introduction of many new releases. Self-incompatible genotypes tolerant to the sharka disease caused by the plum pox virus (PPV), which can severely reduce fruit production and quality, are being used as parents in most breeding programs. As a result, the self-incompatibility trait present in most of those accessions can be transmitted to the offspring, leading to the release of new self-incompatible cultivars. This situation can considerably affect apricot management, since pollination requirements were traditionally not considered in this crop and information is lacking for many cultivars. Thus, the objective of this work was to determine the pollination requirements of a group of new apricot cultivars by molecular identification of the S-alleles through PCR amplification of RNase and SFB regions with different primer combinations. The S-genotype of 66 apricot cultivars is reported, 41 for the first time. Forty-nine cultivars were considered self-compatible and 12 self-incompatible, which were allocated in their corresponding incompatibility groups. Additionally, the available information was reviewed and added to the new results obtained, resulting in a compilation of the pollination requirements of 235 apricot cultivars. This information will allow an efficient selection of parents in apricot breeding programs, the proper design of new orchards, and the identification and solution of production problems associated with a lack of fruit set in established orchards. The diversity at the S-locus observed in the cultivars developed in breeding programs indicates a possible genetic bottleneck due to the use of a reduced number of parents

    Effectiveness Test of Robusta Coffee (Coffea cenephora) Extract from North Sumatra in Collagen and Hydration Skin Level of Female Wistar Rattus norvegicus

    Robusta coffee (Coffea canephora) is one of the Indonesian plants that have antioxidant compounds that can be used as cosmetic ingredients. The antiaging effect of the coffee extract can overcome the photoaging problem. The purpose of this study is to see the anti-aging effects of robusta coffee bean extract based on concentration variations of the female white rats. The study was conducted in a laboratory with pre and post control group design, from February to March 2019. 30 female white rats were divided into 5 groups and were sunbathed for 5 days, then were shaved 2x2 cm wide on the back and were given Robusta coffee bean extract cream 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, 10%, and control. Applying cream twice a day for 4 weeks and changes were measured every 1 week for 4 weeks with a skin analyzer. The results were tested for the normality with the Shapiro-Wilk test and Levene's test. Then followed by Anova Repeated, Pearson Correlation and Multiple Linear Regression test. Data analysis was using SPSS 21.0. There were the highest increased of collagen and hydration levels with Coffea canephora 10% extract given, and variable concentrations and duration of administration have a positive effect. The highest increased of collagen level was in the Coffea canephora 10% extract with an average 91.3% and hydration level amounted to 86.09%
