Piramida: Peninggalan Karya Seni Dunia dari Wilayah Barat Hingga Timur (Bagian II)

There is a terminology declared that human learn from the past to reach a better future. Based on this comprehension, human start to learn about history. Scientists learn history from historical building and cultural heritage from the past. One of the most important building that we need to learn is pyramid. For quite a long time, many people do not know the fact that actually pyramid was only a fundamental form. Everytime people hear a word ‘pyramid', they will think directly and know globally about Egyptian Pyramid. Actually, there were so many different forms of pyramid scattered around the world, from western to eastern countries. Besides Egypt, some countries that have been well-known about their pyramids are Mesopotamia, Egypt, Sudan, Nigeria, Greece, Spain, China, Mexico, North America, Italy, India and Indonesia. In this continuous part of research, article discusses Chinese and Mexican or Mesoamerican Pyramids as the Eastern and American continent cultural heritage. Hopefully, this research will enhance the knowledge about pyramids more specific and reader will be able to differentiate the function and form of each pyramids in the world

Rehabilitation of Devastated Peat Lands and Establishment of Sustainable Agro-systems Through Buffer Zone Planning in Central Kalimantan

Under the slogan of sustainable development, forests on the peat swamp and wetland area have been destroyed in tropical area.Needless to say, since it is very difficult to develop peat swamp and wetland, those huge areas still remain in natural or sub-natural conditions.Therefore, those areas have been considering as the key ecosystem for not only reserving bio resources and biodiversity, but also reducing carbon efflux owing to degradation of peat,stocking of carbon in forests,or controlling water balance.However, now, the peat swamp and wetland in tropical area face to the crisis of disappearance due to human impact,which isaccelerated by recent abnormal and unusual global climate changes

Hubungan Program Orientasi Berbasis Kompetensi Dengan Kinerja Perawat Baru

Competency-based orientation program is a method of new nurse orientation programs. Research on cross-sectional descriptive correlational aimed to analyze the relationship of competency-based orientation program with the performance of new nurses in a inpatient unit at Husada hospital Jakarta. Results for 58 new nurses in the Husada hospital new nurses get a good view of interpersonal competence (72.4%), good technical competence (53.4%), good competence in critical thinking (58.6%). New nurses to see better performance (72.4%). Analysis showed any relationship between competency-based orientation program with the performance of new nurses (p = 0.000, CI: 0.336, 0.696). Competence of new nurses to form a new nurse has a professional performance so that important programs applied in any orientation of new nurses

Aktivitas Antioksidan Berbagai Fraksi Dan Ekstrak Metanolik Daun Beluntas (Pluchea Indica Less)

This study has been done to investigate the antioxidant activity of various fractions and methanolic extract of beluntasleaves by using several test system, such as DPPH, superoxide and hydroxyl radical-scavenging activities, hydrogenperoxide scavenging activity, ferric reducing power, iron and haemoglobin chelating capacities and b-carotene–linoleicbleaching assay. The results showed that methanolic extract of beluntas leaves (EMB) and its fractions (ethyl acetatefraction (FEA), water fraction (FA) and n-butanol fraction (FNB)) had scavenging activity of DPPH radical. EMBwhich had highest phenolic content and the strongest ferric reducing power, exhibited b-carotene–linoleic bleachinginhibition and the highest superoxide scavenging activity, while FEA showed antioxidant activity based on superoxideradical-scavenging activity, iron and haemoglobin chelating capacities and ferric reducing power

Ethnobotanical study and nutrient potency of local traditional vegetables in Central Kalimantan

The Dayak people in Central Kalimantan, traditionally consumed local vegetable, either collected from the wild or traditionally cultivated. Unfortunately, many of the traditional vegetables are approaching extinction, even in their local market. This research is intended to conserve the traditional vegetable by collecting nutritional data and cultural information about the vegetable. Nineteen traditional Dayak vegetables were observed in local markets and in wild areas. Taxonomic identification revealed that the vegetables were Passiflora foetida L. (kemot), Diplazium esculentum (Retz). SW. (bajey fern), Spondias pinnata (L.f.) Kurtz (kedondong leaves), Neptunia oleracea Lour (malu-malu leaves), Manihot esculenta Crantz (cassava leaves). Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp. (talak leaves), Etlingera elatiar (Jack) R.M. Smith (potok shoots, red and green cultivar), Calamus sp. (rotan shoots), Nauclea sp. (Taya leaves), Momordica charantia L. (paria leaves), Gymnopetalum cochinense Kurz (kanjat), Solanum torvum Swartz. (segau fruit), Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott (sulur keladi shoots), Stenochlaena palutris (Burm.)Bedd. (kalakai leaves; red and white cultivar), lotus shoots (pucuk teratai), and Cnesmone javanica Blume (lampinak leaves). Nutrient analysis revealed that red kalakai (wild fern) has the potential nutrient value. It has a high amount of Fe (41.53 ppm), Cu (4.52 ppm), vitamin C (15.41 mg/100g), protein (2.36%), β-carotene (66.99 ppm), and folic acid (11.30 ppm). Other iron-rich vegetables were sulur keladi (49.25 ppm) and bajey (44.6 ppm). While other vitamin C-rich vegetables were paria leaves (18.34 mg/100 g wb), and bajaj fern (22.05 mg/100g w.b). Sulur keladi and bajey were also rich in folic acid. They had 16 and 6.3 ppm of folic acid respectively. The β-carotene content in bajey was 74.04 ppm while taya was 77.41 ppm
