Tinjauan Hukum Islam Terhadap Praktek Gadai Kebun Cengkeh Di Desa Pegayaman, Kecamatan Sukasada, Kabupaten Buleleng, Bali

The minithesis writing is related to practice of clove plantation pawning occurred in Pegayaman village, Kecamatan Sukasada, Buleleng Regency, Bali province. The research is interesting because the use of security by pawnbroker (murtahin) and existence of requirements that are not conforming to Islamic law. Focus of the research is problem about what is the pawn practice? How does Islamic law review about the pawn practice? The research is field one conducted in Pegayaman village, Kecamatan Sukasada, Buleleng Regency, Bali province. The research is descriptive one, namely researcher explains data that is found in field and provides evaluation form sharia perspective. The research uses normative approach, researcher analyzes problem based on norms contained in Islamic law with Al-Qur’an and hadiths as sources, and also uses relevant principles of Islamic law. Data of the research was collected by performing interview with relevant parties. Based on research in the field, researcher concluded that practice of clove plantation pawning in Pegayaman village, Kecamatan Sukasada, Buleleng Regency, Bali province between pawner (rahin) and pawnbroker (murtahin) was in opposition to Islamic law because: first, there was a forcing element within the agreement, namely if rahin does not give his clove plantation harvest to murtahin, so murtahin will not lend money to him; second, there was riba element in the pawn practice, namely murtahin takes benefit exceeding limits from rahin.; third, the use of security goods (marhun) completely by murtahin, it should be that murtahin only takes benefit comparable to maintenance and operational costs if the clove plantation is indeed requiring the costs. Murtahin was also using marhun without profit-sharing with rahin. The complete use of security goods by pawnbroker is not approved by Islamic law because it means opportunistic principle. Also, the practice was no maintaining justice values and, in fact, the clove plantation was still owned by rahin

POLYMORPHISM OF CYTOCHROME P450, SUPERFAMILY19, POLYPEPTIDE 1 GENE AND RELATED TO AROMATASE ENZYME ACTIVITY IN ACROMEGALY IRAQI PATIENTS

Objective: The objective of the present work was to investigate the association between aromatase enzyme activity and polymorphisms, rs2236722, in exon 2 of cytochrome P450 (CYP), superfamily19, polypeptide 1 (CYP19A1gene) in patients with active acromegaly.Methods: A total of 120 males and females (age 20-60 years) were enrolled in this study, 60 patients with active acromegaly who have attended the National Diabetes Centre and and Specialist Center for endocrinology and diabetes, Baghdad, from December 2015 to June 2016 and 60 healthy individuals with matches as a control group. From the whole blood, genomic DNA was extracted to perform genotyping analysis and single-nucleotide polymorphism, rs2236722, in the CYP19A1 gene using multiplex polymerase chain reaction technique, and serum aromatase levels were determined using a solid-phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay based on sandwich method.Results: The results show that the aromatase activity levels of patients were a highly significant decrease when contrasted with healthy control groups in both sexes (p≤0.01), and there were summarized positive results of an allele in single-nucleotide polymorphism, rs2236722, were highly significant in TT allele when contrasted with healthy control groups. While revealed that there was non-significant difference in TC allele when contrasted with healthy control groups (p>0.01).Conclusion: we conclude that there was associated between CYP19A1 gene polymorphism (rs2236722) with aromatase activity and related to acromegaly patients

Faktor – Faktor Yang Mempengaruhi Minat Nasabah Dalam Menggunakan Fasilitas Pembiayaan Pada Bank Syariah Di Kota Jayapura Provinsi Papua

Provinsi Papua yang terdiri dari bermacam-macam suku,kebudayaan, dan agama yang berbeda hidup dalam suatu komunitas yang membutuhkan antara satu dengan yang lainnya. Mayoritas penduduk asli yang dominan beragama kristen sangat mempunyai peran yang strategis disemua lini pemerintah maupun swasta. Walaupun demikian di beberapa daerah di Provinsi Papua, agama Islam dipeluk oleh masyarakat asli setempat seperti di Kabupaten Fakfak, Kabupaten Sorong Raja Ampat, Kabupaten Teluk Bintuni dan Kabupaten Wamena (kebanyakan mualaf). Keberadaan Perbankan diPapua sampai dengan tahun 2006 masih dikuasai oleh perbankan yang dikelola secara konvensional. Setelah itu sekitar Tahun 2007 dan 2008 muncul Bank Syariah yang pertama yaitu Bank Muamalat (2007) dan disusul Bank Syariah yang kedua adalah Bank Syariah Mandiri (2008). Keberadaan Bank Syariah di Kota Jayapura Provinsi Papua yang pada saat pertama kalinya tidak mendapat respon yang baik dari petinggi agama non-muslim karena dinilai berbau sara’ karena mempunyai istilah Perbankan Syariah yang berasal dari bahasa arab. Tantangan tersebut sedikit demi sedikit dapat dihilangkan karena terbukti dapat meyakinkan kepada mereka bahwa sebenarnya misi perbankan syariah juga dapat bertindak sebagai agen development bagi masyarakat Perbedaan-perbedaan menjadi alasan untuk debitur pindah kepada bank syariah. Hal ini terbukti dengan meningkatnya Debitur, Aset Bank, dan bertambahnya jaringan kantor dari tahun ke tahun dan bahkan masyarakat dengan agama nonmuslim banyak menjadi nasabah dana dan debitur kredit sehingga kemudian menimbulkan jawaban bukan pertanyaan, yakni bahwa kota bahkan negara sekalipun yang mayoritas beragama non-muslim dapat menerima bank syariah sebagai mitra bisnis tanpa harus memperdulikan istilah yang digunakan walau itu melekat sekalipun dalam konteks agama Islam. Untuk itulah perlu diteliti faktor-faktor apa sajakah yang mendukung keberhasilan pembiayaan Bank Syariah kepada masyarakat di Kota Jayapura Provinsi Papua

Analisis Potensi Perlindungan Hukum Indikasi Geografis Terhadap Kerajinan Tembaga dan Kuningan di Desa Cepogo, Kecamatan Cepogo, Kabupaten Boyolali

Geographical indication is one type of legal protection provided by the government with the aim of protecting a product originating from an area supported by geographical environmental factors of the region, both from natural factors, human factors or a combination of natural factors and human factors. Copper and brass handicrafts in Cepogo Village, Cepogo District, Boyolali Regency are one of the products that have the potential to be registered as geographical indications with the Directorate General of Intellectual Property (DJKI). Because the copper and brass handicraft products in Cepogo Village, Cepogo District, Boyolali Regency have experienced rapid development and are already well-known as a place for producing or manufacturing copper and brass crafts, so that crafts in Cepogo Village, Cepogo District, Boyolali Regency need to be supported with legal protection in the form of geographical indications. This legal protection aims to maintain and preserve copper and brass handicraft products in Cepogo Village, Cepogo District, Boyolali Regency from things that may or will happen if these crafts are not registered. The copper and brass handicrafts have actually met the book requirements for the registration of Geographical Indications as contained in Government Regulation Number 51 of 2007 concerning Geographical Indications, especially in Article 6 paragraph (3). However, until now the craftsmen and the Cepogo village government have not registered copper and brass handicrafts, because the village government and copper and brass producers or craftsmen in Cepogo Village do not yet know of any geographical indications, not because the village government does not care, but purely because of a lack of knowledge of the village government regarding the existence of geographical indications

Quality of Service Provisioning for Heterogeneous Services in Cognitive Radio-enabled Internet of Things

IEEE The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of interconnected objects, in which every object in the world seeks to communicate and exchange information actively. This exponential growth of interconnected objects increases the demand for wireless spectrum. However, providing wireless channel access to every communicating object while ensuring its guaranteed quality of service (QoS) requirements is challenging and has not yet been explored, especially for IoT-enabled mission-critical applications and services. Meanwhile, Cognitive Radio-enabled Internet of Things (CR-IoT) is an emerging field that is considered the future of IoT. The combination of CR technology and IoT can better handle the increasing demands of various applications such as manufacturing, logistics, retail, environment, public safety, healthcare, food, and drugs. However, due to the limited and dynamic resource availability, CR-IoT cannot accommodate all types of users. In this paper, we first examine the availability of a licensed channel on the basis of its primary users' activities (e.g., traffic patterns). Second, we propose a priority-based secondary user (SU) call admission and channel allocation scheme, which is further based on a priority-based dynamic channel reservation scheme. The objective of our study is to reduce the blocking probability of higher-priority SU calls while maintaining a sufficient level of channel utilization. The arrival rates of SU calls of all priority classes are estimated using a Markov chain model, and further channels for each priority class are reserved based on this analysis. We compare the performance of the proposed scheme with the greedy non-priority and fair proportion schemes in terms of the SU call-blocking probability, SU call-dropping probability, channel utilization, and throughput. Numerical results show that the proposed priority scheme outperforms the greedy non-priority and fair proportion schemes

Surface Operator, Bubbling Calabi-Yau and AGT Relation

Surface operators in N=2 four-dimensional gauge theories are interesting half-BPS objects. These operators inherit the connection of gauge theory with the Liouville conformal field theory, which was discovered by Alday, Gaiotto and Tachikawa. Moreover it has been proposed that toric branes in the A-model topological strings lead to surface operators via the geometric engineering. We analyze the surface operators by making good use of topological string theory. Starting from this point of view, we propose that the wave-function behavior of the topological open string amplitudes geometrically engineers the surface operator partition functions and the Gaiotto curves of corresponding gauge theories. We then study a peculiar feature that the surface operator corresponds to the insertion of the degenerate fields in the conformal field theory side. We show that this aspect can be realized as the geometric transition in topological string theory, and the insertion of a surface operator leads to the bubbling of the toric Calabi-Yau geometry.Comment: 36 pages, 14 figures. v2: minor changes and typos correcte

Screening for resistance against Ascochyta blight in chickpea

Three hundred and fifty five chickpea germplasm accessions were evaluated for blight resistance at seedling stage under greenhouse conditions during the Rabi season of 2003-04. Fifteen genotypes (NCS9904, CM72XILC3279, NCS9911, Dasht, 30173, KK-12, KK-13, FLIP97-116C, FLIP99-48C, ILC7795, FLIP97-194C, FLIP97-217C, FLIP98-22C, FLIP98-56C and FLIP98-44C) with disease rating 3 were resistant, 81 genotypes were moderately resistant with disease rating 4-5 and 259 were susceptible having disease rating of 6-9. Eight of the resistant genotypes were identified from accessions obtained from International Center of Agricultural Research in Dry Areas, Syria, four from National Agricultural Research Center, Islamabad, two from Gram Research Station, Karak and one from Nuclear Institute for Agriculture & Biology, Faisalabad

Non-perturbative effects and the refined topological string

The partition function of ABJM theory on the three-sphere has non-perturbative corrections due to membrane instantons in the M-theory dual. We show that the full series of membrane instanton corrections is completely determined by the refined topological string on the Calabi-Yau manifold known as local P1xP1, in the Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit. Our result can be interpreted as a first-principles derivation of the full series of non-perturbative effects for the closed topological string on this Calabi-Yau background. Based on this, we make a proposal for the non-perturbative free energy of topological strings on general, local Calabi-Yau manifolds.Comment: 38 pages, 5 figure

Wall Crossing, Quivers and Crystals

We study the spectrum of BPS D-branes on a Calabi-Yau manifold using the 0+1 dimensional quiver gauge theory that describes the dynamics of the branes at low energies. The results of Kontsevich and Soibelman predict how the degeneracies change. We argue that Seiberg dualities of the quiver gauge theories, which change the basis of BPS states, correspond to crossing the "walls of the second kind." There is a large class of examples, including local del Pezzo surfaces, where the BPS degeneracies of quivers corresponding to one D6 brane bound to arbitrary numbers of D4, D2 and D0 branes are counted by melting crystal configurations. We show that the melting crystals that arise are a discretization of the Calabi-Yau geometry. The shape of the crystal is determined by the Calabi-Yau geometry and the background B-field, and its microscopic structure by the quiver Q. We prove that the BPS degeneracies computed from Q and Q' are related by the Kontsevich Soibelman formula, using a geometric realization of the Seiberg duality in the crystal. We also show that, in the limit of infinite B-field, the combinatorics of crystals arising from the quivers becomes that of the topological vertex. We thus re-derive the Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence
