Conventional criminal law has always been synonymous with prison, where the settlement can result in the exclusion of the right to a sense of justice for victims because of their disproportionate position. This situation encourages the emergence of the concept of restorative justice, where based on this concept, criminal cases are resolved by involving perpetrators, communities and victims. However, at the regulatory level, the concept of restorative justice is set differently in various rules, which have not been synchronized, such as the internal rules of the Indonesian Police, the Attorney General's Office and the Supreme Court. Inconsistencies in these norms …

Abstract

Military Courts in general are courts devoted to dealing with cases of military soldiers, both concerning criminal matters, military administration, and claims for compensation as a result of criminal offenses. The special nature of military justice is due to the fact that military soldiers have different traditions from civil society regarding the existence of military discipline in their activities, and there are acts that are only known within the military environment, but are not generally applicable. However, a military court in an emergency situation that threatens to be projected as the last court, if the existing judiciary is to …

Jurnal Hukum & Pembangunan

This paper discusses a number of categorizations of countries in dealing with emergencies. The development of studies on this typology is classified after a comparison of the approaches of countries analyzed by a number of experts. There are at least nine models used in this paper, namely; Roman Dictatorship Model, Neo Roman Model, Constitutional Emergency Powers, Statutory Authorization, Extra-Legal Action, The Executive Dictatorship, The Legislative Dictatorship, and The War Government. Some of these types have similarities and intersections in their use. Understanding the birth of this typology will enrich alternatives in dealing with emergencies more effectively and proportionally.

Faculty and Staff Scholarship

We describe the successful detection of human, porcine and canine picornaviruses (CanPV) in sewage sludge (at each stage of treatment) from Louisville, Kentucky, USA, using Pan-enterovirus amplicon-based long-read Illumina sequencing. Based on publicly available sequence data in GenBank, this is the first detection of CanPV in the USA and the first detection globally using wastewater-based epidemiology. Our findings also suggest there might be clusters of endemic porcine enterovirus (which have been shown capable of causing systemic infection in porcine) circulation in the USA that have not been sampled for around two decades. Our findings highlight the value of WBE coupled …

The global livestock sector is expanding at a faster rate than any other agricultural sub-sector. It employs approximately 1.3 billion people and accounts for approximately 40 % of global agricultural output. This industry is one of the most damaging sectors to the world's increasingly scarce water resources, contributing to water pollution from animal wastes, hormones, antibiotics, chemicals from tanneries, pesticides, and fertilizers used to spray feed crop. Climate change harms livestock productivity by changing ecosystem services i.e. water availability, forage quality and quantity, diseases outbreak, and animals stress due to heat shock and reduction of livestock diversity and breeds.

Journal of Bioresource Management

Ninety-five amateur cricketers of age, 15-35 years with confirmed acute or chronic ankle sprain, selected from four different cities of the Punjab, Pakistan were evaluated through Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT), Single Leg Balance test (SLB) and subject to a set of progressively increasing exercises on ground and in water as well known as MixedBag rehab exercises which consisted of Hydro, Isometric, Isotonic and proprioception protocols. Another group of same level cricketer (n = 40) served as control. Comparisons of pre and post-exercise values showed significant increase (p < 0.001) in Lateral direction reach and Posteromedial direction while the rest of the six directions showed non-significant results. MixedBag Rehab Group showed an overall improvement of 14.3 % and 9.2 % with an increase (cm) of 9.6 and 6.3 for the non-injured and injured leg respectively. However, the range of improvement in percentage for all eight directions lies between 5.5-6.3 and 7.7-11.8 for the non-injured and injured leg, respectively. Similarly, the difference between pre and post-exercise difference of two positions of non-injured leg and injured leg in seconds were 2.9, 12.1 and 4.1, 27.7. The results indicated that MixedBag exercises improved isometric and isotonic muscular strength, proprioception and stability that ultimately helped to recover, regaining strength and reinstall proprioception. After completing the MixedBag Rehab plan, the subjects were followed for four months to check the recurrence and it was found that the recurrence of Control Injured Group and MixedBag Rehab Group was 17.5 % and 7.5 %, respectively.

Platform: A Journal of Engineering (PAJE)

The Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) process has grown within the time oil exploration was conducted, and many recovery methods were invented to maximize production. One of the promising recovery techniques is carbon dioxide (CO2) flooding. However, CO2 flooding has its disadvantages where due to different mobility and heterogeneity between CO2 and reservoir, the sweep efficiency is reduced because of gas channelling and viscous fingering. Thus, the application of surfactant is introduced to solve the problem. But, by using surfactants in CO2 flooding, loss of surfactant to the formation is observed. Due to this setback, the cost of the EOR process …
