This research aimed to examine the influence of financial performance on market share in Indonesia Islamic Banking. We use return on assets (ROA), capital adequacy ratio (CAR), non performing loan (NPL), operating expenses-operating income (OEOI/BOPO), and financing to deposit ratio (FDR) as proxies of financial performance. Also, we apply market share as the comparison of Islamic banking total asset on total asset of Indonesia banks. This study is using stakeholder perspective analysis. How market share is influenced by financial performance, since market share is the reflection of stakeholders perception. We collect 33 Islamic Banks financial report in 2013-2015 using times series model. The result shows that ROA has positive significant effect on market share. Meanwhile, NPL and BOPO have negative significant effect on market share. Otherwise, FDR has no significant effect on market share. Based on the research findings, this study confirms that in Indonesia Islamic banking provides good news in their financial performance.

Awgbu town is in Orumba North local Government Area of Anambra State, South East of Nigeria, located at Latitude 6o 07ꞌ N and Longitude 7o 06ꞌE. The town has two types of clay deposits at Ngene-Agu site called Asha and Ajagworo. The Business of pottery making by Awgbu Women is as old as Awgbu and flourished well till late 1980s when lighter plastic containers took over. Their method of preparation of clays and firing of their pots production is the same with Makurdi preparation and firing of bricks except that Ajagworo is used as an additive to Asha in the ratio of 1:3. This work provides an extension of an established ratio (1:3) at 11000C to further determine the best ratio that will give the highest compressive strength and minimum cold water absorption at the same established temperature, with a view to promote the use of burnt bricks for structural development and other possible applications in Anambra state, Nigeria where the clay is found. The Bricks was moulded using ratios 0:1, 1:0, 1:1, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4 and 1:5 for Ajagworo and Asha clay soils. The mixtures were tagged JSCi, where i = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. The work evaluated the compositional characteristics of the soils and engineering properties of derived bricks to assess their suitability and as alternative to sandcrete as load bearing materials in the construction of houses. The Geo-physical investigations revealed that the soils are composed of varying proportions of sand, silt and clay, with the following proportions; sand 23-61% with an average of 35.4%, clay 19-56% with an average of 32.9%, silt 17-50% with an average of 31.7%, plasticity index ranging from 4.0-47.2 with an average of 27.6 while the sand fraction is mainly fine to medium grained. The chemistry of the soils in their order of abundance of major oxides is Silica SiO2 >Alumina Al2O3 > Iron oxide Fe2O3 > Magnesium oxide MgO > SO3 > Titanium oxide TiO2 > other oxides found in little/negligible sizes. The similarities in the Geo-chemical results suggests that they were all derived from a station point and all the samples fall under Alumino-Silicate type of clay because of their high value of Aluminum oxide and silicon oxide. The crushing strength of the fired test cubes ranges from 1.95-4.95N/MM2 and the cold water absorption ranges from 15.53-29.67%. Samples JSC5- JSC7 was able to satisfy the requirements specified by relevant Nigerian standards for fired bricks.

Lately delicate wearable exoskeletons, usually alluded to as exo-suits, have been broadly utilized in human help. Consequently, a mutual approach for a methodical and comprehensive control design is critical. The majority of the exo-suits grew so far utilize a link transmission to advantageously put the actuator far from the end-effector. While having numerous focal points this activation technique shows some characteristic impediments caused by non linearities, for example, rubbing and friction of the links, which make it hard to anticipate and control the elements between the arm and the client. The report exhibits a novel technique for the arm exoskeletons that considers the solid power manipulability of the human arm. We propose a model that gives help without considering the biomechanical properties of the human arm.

Violence against women and children victims of trafficking in Indonesia continues to increase. Trafficking in persons referred to in humanity is not feasible, every person has basic rights related to human dignity that should not be taken away by anyone. Trafficking is a social phenomenon when people try to find a decent life, so they try to travel a considerable distance to the outside of the national boundary, so there is a population movement or what is called international migration which is generally influenced also by economic factors. Along with the development of globalization it turns out that it has direct consequences in the economic field in various countries. International migration will always take place at any time. Trafficking cases in Indonesia are like icebergs, the numbers hidden below the surface are far greater than those seen on the surface. Trafficking is an organized crime, this crime involves several people who have networks or linkages with each other and have the purpose of exploiting the victim for the sake of unilateral gain (perpetrators), so that in overcoming this trafficking case, the government has a stake and must determine a firm attitude in handling and eradicate it. In this agreement, a model for handling Victims of Trafficking is needed as well as evaluating and improving the system for cases of comprehensive handling of trafficking victims. Research on "Trafficking in Border Areas Case Study on Violence Against Women and Children Victims of Trafficking in the West Kalimantan Border" uses a methodology qualitative research with a case study approach through four main techniques of data collection, namely observation, documentation studies, in-depth interviews, and focus group discussions (FGD) on various parties and various related objects, to obtain actual, accurate, and complete data and information on violence against women and children victims of trafficking (trafficking) on the border of the Entikong-West Kalimantan region. The West Kalimantan border area is the focus of the research target because Entikong Sub-district is geographically directly adjacent to Sarawak, Malaysia. Cases of violence against women and children victims of trafficking on the border of West Kalimantan are placed as a contemporary phenomenon, which is new, is happening, and has a strong potential to continue to occur as long as prevention and eradication do not reach the target, are not effective, and are not systematic.

Ethics in the use of computers are receiving greater attention than before. Computer ethics is very important because people have certain perceptions and fears with the use of computers. The features of computer use that are worrying to the public are the ability to program computers to do anything, the fact that computers can change everyday life and the fact that what a computer does may not be visible to people who are victims. Society in general gives attention mainly because of the awareness that computers can interfere with individual privacy rights, property and access. Whereas in the business world, one of the main reasons for this concern is the problem of software piracy that can significantly reduce the revenue of software sellers. But the subject of computer ethics is deeper than privacy and piracy. Computers are powerful social equipment, which can help or disturb the community in many ways, all of which depend on how they are used. Our behavior is directed by morals, ethics, and law.

Mass surveillance is blessing and curse for our life. Modern Day surveillance has made our life risk free and at the same time our privacy is compromised. In the Book, 1984, the writer assumed a surveillance state where each and every aspect of human emotion is controlled by the ruling state. The key factors of our life like language, emotions are controlled and monitored by the state. People doesn’t have anything to say anything as they are being manipulated psychologically to abide by the rules and regulations. In recent days people are also being watched and our movement is checked. The reason is our safety by eliminating the human threat, assessing the crime scene after checking the cctv footage, apprehend a crime in progress, monitor unlawful activities by the law enforcement agencies. On the other hand, we are being watched everywhere, we cannot express our opinions independently as for the controversy issues, our track record is kept for analysis, out personal data is being collected and checked which is really a matter of concern as we all have something to keep private. In this paper, the varying dimensions of surveillance are discussed and analysed in an empirical manner.

Coconut agribusiness development opportunities with high economic value products are very large. Coconut products that have been developed in the country are virgin coconut oil (VCO). VCO has a context of products that can improve health and high-value natural cosmetic raw materials. The purpose of this study was to purify Virgin Coconut Oil using natural zeolite, utilizing ultrasonic wave equipment in the process of making Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) by comparing the results of enzymatic VCO yields (Soursop fruit enzymes) with the help of ultrasonic and without ultrasonic assistance, as well as knowing the effect ultrasonic time on the yield and VCO content produced and analyze the physical and chemical properties contained in Virgin Coconut Oil that conform to the SNI method. Making VCO was done by ultrasonic method using a temperature of 30 ° C and a frequency of 42 kHz with ultrasonic time variations of 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 and 70 minutes. VCO made by ultrasonic method has the highest yield compared to without ultrasonic assistance. Operating conditions that produce VCO with increasing ultrasonic time, the water content gets smaller, the density increases, the free fatty acid gets smaller, the saponification rate increases and the yield increases with the most optimum enzymatic ultrasonic time to make Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO) with 4 ml Soursop extract and the best 200 ml coconut milk cream is 60 minutes which has a yield of 64.5%. For purification of VCO using Natural zeolite with a variation of 10, 20, and 30, 40, 50 and 60 grams of zeilite in 20 ml of VCO. The results showed that the enzymatic VCO making (Soursop fruit enzyme) with the help of chemical ultrasonigraphy which provided the appropriate quality for the comparison of 30 grams of natural zeolite could reduce the moisture content to 96.15% and increase the Iod number by 50.84%

The issue of Human Resources is always a strategic issue to be a study or research. Election organizers shaded in vertical institutions such as the General Election Commission (KPU) in social and political sciences are often used as the object of qualitative research for students. This study aims to describe the influence between variables Transformational Leadership, Motivation, Performance Allowance on Job Satisfaction and Performance in Seven Districts / Cities in East Java. This research is also explanatory research that analyzes the influence of each Exogenous variable on Endogenous variables. The research was conducted in Seven Districts / Cities, including Probolinggo Regency, Probolinggo City, Lumajang Regency, Jember Regency, Bondowoso Regency, Situbondo Regency, and Banyuwangi Regency with a population of all Civil Servants of the KPU Secretariat in seven districts / cities in East Java. The population was 110 people with sampling techniques using a census of all civil servant populations in the Tapal Kuda area in seven (7) regencies / cities in East Java. Another term ‘jenuh’ sample is a census, where all members of the population are sampled. The data analysis technique uses Structural Equation Model (SEM), the results of the study show that for the first test, the Classical Assumption Test does not violate normality, Outlier and Multicollinearity. The model of Goodness Of Fit (GOF) also has a good suitability of the model and for the results of testing the hypothesis. Hypothesis 1 is accepted where the Transformational Leadership variable (X1) has a significant effect on the Job Satisfaction variable (Y1) with a structural coefficient of 0.418, with a CR value of 4.172> 1.96 and probability = 0.001 <0.05. Hypothesis 2 is accepted, which means that the Work Motivation variable (X2) has a significant effect on the Job Satisfaction variable (Y1), it is indicated by the structural coefficient value of 0.148, the value of CR = 2.792> 1.96, besides the probability value = 0.046 <0 , 05. Hypothesis 3 is accepted, it’s means that the Performance Allowance variable (X3) has a significant effect on the Job Satisfaction variable (Y1), this is indicated by the structural coefficient value of 0.313, with a CR value of 2.792 > 1.96 and a probability of 0.005 < 0.05. Hypothesis 4, it’s means that the variable Transformational Leadership (X1) has a significant effect on Performance (Y2). This is indicated by the structural coefficient of 0.151, the CR value of 2.804>1.96 with a probability value = 0.005<0.05. Hypothesis 5 is rejected. It’s Work Motivation variable (X2) has no significant effect on Performance (Y2). This can be indicated by the structural coefficient value of 0.030, besides that the value of CR = 0.831 < 1.96 and the probability = 0.406 > 0.05. Hypothesis 6 is accepted, this can be concluded that the Performance Allowance variable (X3) has a significant effect on the Performance variable (Y2). ). This can be indicated the structural coefficient value of 0.119, the value of CR = 2.061 > 1.96 and the probability = 0.039 < 0.05. The hypothesis 7 is accepted, It’s the Job Satisfaction variable (Y1) has a significant effect on Performance (Y2). This is indicated by the structural coefficient value of 1.234 with a CR value of 8.983 > 1.96, for a probability value obtained at 0.000 < 0.05. The hypothesis 8 is accepted, concluded that the Transformational Leadership variable (X1) has a significant positive effect on Performance (Y2) through the Job Satisfaction variable (Y1). This is indicated by the structural coefficient value of 0.67057 > -0.151. Hypothesis 9 is accepted, namely that the Work Motivation variable (X2) has a significant positive effect on Performance (Y2) through the Job Satisfaction variable (Y1). This can be indicated by the structural coefficient value of 0.21395 > 0.03. Hypothesis 10 is accepted, it is concluded that the Performance Allowance variable (X3) has a significant positive effect on Performance (Y2) through the Job Satisfaction variable (Y1).
