This research discusses how to restore the coffee culture of ancient people and its relationship with modern cafes that exist today. In ancient times, people drank coffee by producing the ingredients themselves, from growing the coffee to the brewing process. However, as time progressed, instant coffee emerged which made people start consuming instant coffee because the manufacturing process was practical, the price was relatively cheap and the taste had many innovations. This research uses a systems theory perspective by Walter Buckley and is reinforced by Niklas Luhmann's General Systems Theory. According to him, this systems theory focuses on the relationship of various processes in a social system. The research method used is a qualitative research method with an ethnographic approach. The research results show that many cafes that have been established today have brought back the coffee culture of ancient people. This can be proven by making coffee starting from the coffee beans to the blooming process or brewing the coffee using a coffee maker.

The problem of population density is still problematic for the government because of the unequal distribution of the population and social and economic conditions that have not changed. Then the government created a transmigration program that could be used for socio-economic change and progress that could be felt by the community later. Transmigration is a government policy that exists in Indonesia with the aim of distributing the population evenly in various regions, especially outside Java. The problem in this research is the legal regulations related to the transmigration program and the impact of transmigration on socio-economic progress.

Marriage is a sacred bond entered into by a man and woman to continue their lives. According to Law No. 1 of 1974, the definition of marriage is a spiritual and physical bond between a man and a woman as husband and wife with the aim of forming a happy and eternal family in accordance with the belief in the Almighty God. A legal marriage is carried out according to the religious law and the state law of both parties. However, it does not rule out the possibility of a mixed marriage where the nationality of both parties is different. In this writing, we discuss a mixed marriage regarding the legal consequences of mixed marriages regulated in Law Number 1 of 1974 concerning marriage and discuss the mechanism for separating assets in mixed marriages according to Denpasar Court decision Number 536/Pdt.P/2015/PN.Dps. Based on this decision, both parties entered into a mixed marriage between Indonesian citizens and US citizens, but the two parties did not make a prenuptial agreement for the separation of their respective assets as a condition for carrying out a mixed marriage. In this case, even though a foreigner is married to an Indonesian citizen and has registered their marriage and lives in Indonesia, they still have limited rights to buy and sell immovable assets

This research in-depth investigates agrarian law conflicts that arise in connection with toll road construction in the West Sumatra Province. The main focus of this research is on exploring the position of Minangkabau community customary land in the context of inheritance law. An in-depth analysis was carried out on the role of the 1945 Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia and Law Number 5 of 1960 concerning Basic Agrarian Principles (UUPA) in regulating the revocation of rights to customary land for the public interest. This research also explores comparisons with other regions in Indonesia to reveal variations in legal approaches in dealing with similar conflicts. Thus, this research aims to understand the complexity of conflicts that arise along with these infrastructure projects. The results of this research provide an illustration that the agrarian law conflict in West Sumatra is not only limited to the revocation of rights to customary land, but also involves aspects of inheritance law which significantly influence the position of the Minangkabau people. The implications of these findings will be explained comprehensively to provide in-depth insight into the dynamics of agrarian law conflicts in the context of infrastructure development in Indonesia.

One of the factors that determine the occurrence of tax avoidance is financial derivatives. That is because the tax regulations in Indonesia on derivative transactions are still very weak and often debated. The lack of clarity of tax regulations on derivative transactions can also be used by companies to conduct tax avoidance. This can certainly harm state revenues, especially revenues from the tax sector. Disclosure of corporate tax information encourages increased tax compliance. Therefore, the level of corporate tax disclosure is associated with tax avoidance. This study aims to test and analyze the effect of financial derivatives and tax avoidance on tax disclosure. The population in this study are manufacturing companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in 2022. By using purposive sampling method, obtained from several samples of companies that meet the criteria. This study uses secondary data which is then processed using the SmartPLS 4.0 program.

So for the constraints of the family program, hope has more or less been able to top it.

The Effect Of Use Of Lung Mask Fixation On The Accuracy Of Targeted Irradiation In Lung Cancer Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (Imrt) Technique In The Department Of Radiation Oncology, Jakarta General Hospital. Lung cancer is the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in one or both lungs. While normal cells in the lungs usually develop and reproduce to form healthy lung tissue, these abnormal cells actually reproduce more quickly and are never able to become normal lung tissue. As a result, lumps of cancer cells are formed, which are often referred to as tumors. (4) Radiotherapy is a form of therapy that has been proven to be useful in treating cancer. The aim of radiotherapy is to provide safe, accurate and efficient radiation doses to treat various types of cancer and also non-malignant disorders (7). Carrying out radiotherapy for lung cancer involves the use of immobilization devices, one of which is a thermoplastic mask. This mask functions to reduce the patient's body movements, including movements caused by breathing (9). Verification is a critical stage in the radiotherapy process. The purpose of this verification is to ensure that there are no significant differences in the exposure carried out (14). Giving the right dose of radiotherapy radiation is very necessary to achieve successful therapeutic treatment. The accuracy of dosing and the accuracy of the patient's position influence the dose distribution that will be received by the patient. This verification is based on the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Human Health Series No. 31 of 2016 with a displacement value of 0.3cm (15). EPID (Electronic Portal Imaging Device) is an additional device connected to the LINAC (Linear Accelerator) radiotherapy device. EPID functions as a verification tool for radiation dose and geometry which is very important in the radiotherapy process (16). The accuracy of the patient's position during radiation treatment greatly influences the accuracy of the IMRT technique. Before irradiation, verification is carried out using an EPID (Electronic Portal Imaging Device) to ensure the correct target position on the tumor. This helps measure the x, y, and z axis coordinates along the radiation area before the radiation procedure begins.
