Logung Reservoir in Kudus Regency is one of the reservoirs with priority for flood management. The threat of sedimentation in the reservoir is extremely high. To prevent sedimentation in the reservoir, it is necessary to prepare an efficient sediment control method that is affordable, easy, and yields optimal results. This research will compare the economic efficiency of two sediment control methods in the reservoir: the construction of Check Dams (CD) upstream and sediment dredging in the reservoir using heavy equipment. The smallest Future Value Cost (FVc) value for 50 years between the CD construction method and Reservoir Dredging is an indication of a more efficient control method. FVc CD analysis is based on construction value, Operation, and maintenance every year, and Rehabilitation assumption every 3 years, and FVc Reservoir dredging is the operational cost of dredging once every 5 years and Rehabilitation assumption every 4 years, with the same volume of sediment. The analysis results based on a 5% internal rate show that the FVc for Check Dams is Rp. 8,584.72 billion, and the FVc for reservoir dredging, including crop losses, is Rp. 55,858.1 billion. Thus, sediment control using the construction and operation of check dams is more efficient.

Slope stability is a key concern in open-pit mining due to its impact on safety and operational efficiency. Mine X, located in Kalimantan Island, faces landslide risks on its high wall slopes. This study aims to model slope stability and determine safe and economical slope geometry. The analysis was performed using the Limit Equilibrium Method (Bishop Simplified), both analytically and numerically, through Slide 6.0 software by Rockscience Inc. Input data were obtained from five geotechnical investigation points provided by PT.X, including cohesion, internal friction angle, and saturated unit weight. Two lithologies were analyzed—claystone and sandstone—with slope height variations (5 m, 10 m, 15 m) and angles (26°, 45°, 51°, 59°), under dry and saturated conditions. Simulation results show that the factor of safety (SF) decreases with increasing slope height and angle, especially under saturated conditions. Sandstone demonstrates better stability than claystone. The recommended optimal slope geometry is 10 meters in height with a 59° angle, yielding a SF ≥ 1.25 and aligning with the PC-400 excavator's cutting capability. This study provides a technical reference for designing safe slopes that support mining productivity.

Eastern Fair.

This material provides an in-depth overview of the fundamental distinctions between Islamic banks and conventional banks, covering their underlying principles, contract types, operational mechanisms, legal frameworks, and organizational structures. Islamic banks operate based on Islamic values derived from the Qur’an, Hadith, and the rulings of the National Sharia Council (DSN-MUI), emphasizing strict prohibitions on riba, gharar, and maysir. Contracts such as wadiah, mudharabah, musyarakah, murabahah, ijarah, salam, and istishna’ are applied to promote fairness and profit-sharing. In contrast, conventional banks rely on positive law and interest-based systems as their primary source of income. Legally, Islamic banks are supervised by the Sharia Supervisory Board (DPS) to ensure compliance with sharia principles, while conventional banks adhere solely to general financial regulations set by authorities like the Financial Services Authority (OJK) and Bank Indonesia. The operations of Islamic banks include fund mobilization, financing, and financial services without the use of interest, whereas conventional banks earn revenue from the interest spread between deposits and loans. Although both bank types share a similar organizational structure, Islamic banks incorporate an additional layer of sharia oversight. Overall, Islamic banks aim to balance profitability with ethical and spiritual values (falah), while conventional banks primarily focus on maximizing financial returns. This material highlights Islamic banking as an ethical alternative within modern financial practices, promoting justice, sustainability, and broader economic well-being.

The process of signing on and off a seafarer's book for ship crew is a vital stage in the shipping world that requires thorough preparation and orderly implementation to ensure the safety and smooth operation of the ship. Signing on a seafarer's book involves recording and confirming the date and location of boarding the ship in the seafarer's book, which serves as official proof that the document holder has joined the ship's crew. Generally, this stage is accompanied by the preparation of a Seafarer's Employment Agreement (PKL) containing salary details and obtaining approval from the Harbor Master. Conversely, sign off is a procedure carried out when the work contract period in the PKL ends, or earlier for certain reasons such as late salary payments or discomfort in the work. The purpose of this study is to identify the obstacles that arise in the process of managing the sign-on/off of seafarer's crew books at PT. Baruna Mitra Segara Lines, Bandar Lampung. In compiling this paper, the author applies two approaches, namely the field observation method (field study) and the library study method. Both methods are used to gain a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism for managing the sign-on/off of seafarer's books, while also identifying the obstacles that arise so that the company can maximize the process. The research findings reveal that there are obstacles in the implementation of the sign-on/off of seafarer's books that are not fully in accordance with procedures. However, this process still has a positive and significant impact on the efficiency of the departure time of ship crews. This finding confirms that improving procedures and enforcing operational standards are key to improving the quality of document management services at PT. Baruna Mitra Segara Lines

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) have become a key component in the development of modern digital products and the transformation of cloud-based services. Its ability to provide structured access to data and enable cross-platform integration makes APIs at the core of the enterprise's digital architecture. However, the high level of API openness poses increasingly complex security challenges, including potential data exploitation, injection attacks, credential misuse, and exploitation of business logic loopholes. This article examines the strategic role of APIs in the digital ecosystem, analyzes the operational risks that arise from API exposure, and evaluates the effectiveness of basic defense mechanisms such as API Gateways and Web Application Firewalls (WAFs). The findings of the study show that while both solutions play an important role in controlling access, filtering, and mitigating attacks at the surface layer, they have not been able to provide comprehensive protection against modern API threats that are dynamic, distributed, and often exploit weaknesses at the application and business logic levels. Therefore, a more holistic, layered, and sustainable API security approach is needed, including anomalous behavior detection, API abuse protection, and real-time monitoring to maintain the integrity and reliability of digital services.
