Pressure sensitive labels (PSLs) made of polyethylene (PE) white are widely used in the packaging industry due to their flexibility, moisture resistance, and ease of application on various substrates. This study aimed to examine the effect of glossy and matte lamination on the tensile strength and color difference (ΔE) of PE white PSLs. An experimental method was employed, with tensile testing conducted using a universal testing machine (UTM) in accordance with ASTM standards and color measurement performed using a spectrodensitometer based on the CIE Lab system. The samples were divided into three treatment groups, namely no lamination, glossy lamination, and matte lamination, with ink coverage controlled at two design conditions, full ink and minim ink. The results indicated that lamination type significantly affected both the mechanical and visual characteristics of the labels. In the tensile strength test, the highest mean value was obtained by one treatment group, indicating superior resistance to tensile loading. In terms of color stability, higher ΔE values indicated greater color change and lower lightfastness, whereas lower ΔE values reflected better color retention. Overall, the findings show that the combination of lamination type and ink coverage influences the performance of PE white PSLs in both mechanical strength and color stability.

This study aims to analyze and compare the cabin noise levels of the Mitsubishi Destinator Ultimate variant (sunroof) and Exceed variant (non-sunroof) under various driving speed conditions. Measurements were conducted using a Sound Level Meter inside the cabin at idle, 10, 30, 50, 70, 90, and 100 km/h. Results indicate that the Ultimate (sunroof) variant consistently produces higher noise levels than the Exceed (non-sunroof) variant across all speed variations. The largest noise difference was recorded at 100 km/h at 6.50 dB, while the smallest occurred at idle at 0.05 dB. Noise levels in both variants increased significantly with increasing speed, with the sunroof variant reaching 70.00 dB and the non-sunroof variant reaching 63.50 dB at 100 km/h. This difference is attributed to gaps and seals in the sunroof panel, which allow greater noise penetration from the external environment.

Abstract. PT XYZ, a wooden furniture manufacturing company, served as the research site for this study which applied the Theory of Constraints (TOC) method to analyze production performance and identify bottlenecks. The company faces capacity imbalances between workstations, resulting in production targets that have not been achieved optimally. Data collection involved direct observation and interviews with related parties in the production area. The analysis was conducted by comparing the required capacity with the available capacity at each production workstation. The findings reveal that solid processing, machining, sanding, assembling, painting, and packing have sufficient available capacities to meet production requirements, thus categorized as non-bottleneck processes. In contrast, the panel processing station is identified as the main bottleneck due to its highest workload among all processes. By implementing the Theory of Constraints, the company can identify major constraints and establish improvement priorities to enhance production flow smoothness. It is expected that improvements in bottleneck processes will increase production efficiency, balance capacity among workstations, and support more optimal achievement of production targets.

  Abstract.. The development of modernization in corn farming in Kalibareng Village, Patean District, Kendal Regency has the potential to cause the loss of traditional terms used by the farming community. This study aims to describe and analyze the lexicon of corn farming in Kalibareng Village, Patean District, Kendal Regency, and to reveal the lexical and contextual meaning contained therein. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach with  field research and semantic studies as the main approach. Data were obtained through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation of corn farmers in Kalibareng Village. The results show that there are 44 lexicons divided into three categories, namely cultivation processes, agricultural tools, and agricultural materials. The lexical meaning in the lexicon refers to the basic meaning according to its referent, while the contextual meaning is influenced by the situation of use in agricultural activities. The contextual meanings found include process context, time context, and function context. This study shows that the corn farming lexicon not only functions as a communication tool, but also represents local knowledge, culture, and farming experiences of the Kalibareng Village community that have been passed down from generation to generation.

This study aims to synthesize empirical and theoretical literature on the Planning–Organizing–Actuating–Controlling (POAC) framework in public sector management, identify asymmetries among its functions, and propose a reconfiguration of POAC that is relevant to digital and collaborative governance. The study employs an integrative literature review by examining classical management literature, peer-reviewed journals, government regulations, and official governance indicators. Data were analyzed thematically based on the four POAC functions and synthesized across themes, using Indonesia during the 2021–2025 period as the empirical context. The findings reveal that planning and organizing functions have developed relatively well, while actuating and especially controlling remain persistent weaknesses. This condition is reflected in improvements in several formal governance indicators, including the Electronic-Based Government System (SPBE) Index, Indonesia’s ranking in the E-Government Development Index (EGDI), Unqualified Audit Opinions (WTP), and public service compliance ratings. However, during the same period, the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) declined. These findings indicate a gap between administrative achievements and substantive outcomes, consistent with the concept of means–ends decoupling in neo-institutional theory. The study contributes by bridging classical management theory with contemporary governance paradigms and proposing a Data-driven, Networked, Adaptive, and Participatory (DNAP) model of POAC. Practically, the results highlight the need to strengthen controlling functions and adaptive leadership to foster more effective, transparent, and outcome-oriented public governance.

In today's rapidly developing era, advances in digital technology have brought significant changes to various fields, including the music industry.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has increasingly influenced higher education, including learning practices among students of Islamic Education (PAI). Applications such as ChatGPT, Claude AI, and Gemini are widely used to support academic activities, including information searching, understanding course materials, idea generation, and assignment completion. This study aims to examine the use of AI among PAI students and analyze its implications for critical thinking skills. A qualitative descriptive approach was employed at the Islamic Education Program of UIN Salatiga. Data were collected through written interviews with 12 students selected using purposive sampling and analyzed using an interactive data analysis model. The findings reveal that AI has become an important part of students’ academic activities due to its perceived usefulness and ease of use. Most participants demonstrated critical thinking behaviors by verifying AI-generated information, comparing multiple academic sources, and evaluating the accuracy of responses before using them for academic purposes. Nevertheless, excessive dependence on AI was found to potentially reduce students’ independent learning and analytical engagement. The study concludes that AI has a dual impact on critical thinking: it can enhance critical thinking when used reflectively and responsibly, but it may also weaken cognitive involvement when relied upon excessively. Therefore, strengthening AI literacy, digital literacy, and critical thinking skills is essential in higher education learning practices.
