This article discusses the lyrics of the song “Rasa Ini” by Vierratale as a representation of hidden feelings of love, emotional wounds, and doubts in relationships. Through a qualitative descriptive approach and Roland Barthes’ semiotic theory and Grice’s implicature theory, this article analyzes the figurative meaning in the song lyrics, especially the use of metaphor, symbolism, signs, connotation, denotation, and emotional narrative structures that emerge through a first-person perspective. The findings show that the lyrics of this song not only convey messages verbally, but also describe a strong inner mood through visualization of imagery, melody, musical nuances, and supporting poetic emotions. The presence of the background of the songwriter, Kevin Aprilio, also enriches the intertextual meaning that is manifested in the authenticity of emotions. This song is also a mirror of popular culture that reflects the dynamics of love in Indonesian society, especially love that is not conveyed directly, internalized in personal experiences, the psychology of the listener, and expressions of cultural identity.

This article explores the significance found in the lyrics of the song "Paris Berantai" by Anang Ardiansyah through Paul Ricoeur's hermeneutic approach. This song is among the plethora of traditional Banjar music that not only provides enjoyable melodies but also incorporates social imagery that mirrors the values of Banjar society, including love, yearning, struggle, identity, and social dynamics. The methodology employed is qualitative descriptive with hermeneutic research methods, which involve a thorough interpretation of song lyrics as social works. This research seeks to uncover the implications within the lyrics that musically and artfully express the intricacies of local culture. The findings reveal that this song is not merely a traditional musical composition but also serves as a medium for conveying the character and intellect of Banjar society. This analysis indicates that each lyric of the song holds a philosophical significance that reflects the perspectives of the Banjar people on time, social relationships, nature, and the impact of external societies. Furthermore, this song portrays the experience of profound love and acts as a channel for conveying moral, spiritual, and social messages within a sophisticated context.

Hypertension or high blood pressure is defined as a continuous increase in blood pressure that exceeds normal limits (Nuraini et al., 2023). Hypertension occurs due to several factors, the first being modifiable and non-modifiable factors. Among the modifiable risk factors for hypertension are smoking and obesity. People who smoke more than one pack of cigarettes per day will be twice as vulnerable as people who do not smoke (Luh et al., 2020). The purpose of this study was to determine the correlational between smoking and BMI with the incidence of hypertension in adult men in Alassumur Lor Besuk Probolinggo. The research design used an Correlational Analytic with a cross-sectional approach. The population in this study was 35 with a total sampling technique. The research instrument used a questionnaire, then the data obtained will be tested by Spearman rank. The results of the study obtained the smoking variable ? = 0.018, the BMI variable ? = 0.071. This shows that there is a corelation between smoking behavior and BMI with the incidence of hypertension. Smoking behavior that is increasingly uncontrolled will cause hypertension and accumulation of fat on the walls of blood vessels can cause narrowing and hardening, increasing blood flow resistance and ultimately increasing blood pressure. It is hoped that respondents will reduce their smoking habits and start a healthy life by maintaining a diet, exercising regularly and eating nutritious foods.

The increasing use of plastic materials in daily life has led to a rise in plastic waste, contributing significantly to environmental pollution. This study aims to analyze the characteristics of insects that contribute to the eco-friendly degradation of plastic waste and to evaluate the rate of plastic waste degradation and the waste reduction index (WRI) achieved through insect larvae. The research uses a Randomized Factorial Design, investigating plastics such as styrofoam blocks, low-density polyethylene, polyurethane, polystyrene, and a control. The parameters examined include insect characteristics, larval length and weight, degradation rate, and WRI. Both Zophobas atratus and Tenebrio molitor exhibit the potential for the bioconversion of plastic waste. The weight of T. molitor larvae ranges from 0.07-0.09g, while Z. atratus larvae weigh between 0.51 and 0.60g. The WRI is directly proportional to the reduction rate, with higher reduction rates corresponding to higher WRI values. The results showed that the control using Z. atratus and T. molitor larvae achieved the highest WRI values among all treatments. Among the plastic types studied, styrofoam blocks showed the highest WRI value, indicating that a feeding rate of 1g of plastic per larva per day is optimal for efficiently reducing plastic waste. This supports circular economy initiatives for companies developing insect-based proteins for food, feed, and natural products while advancing sustainable development goals.

The enzymes laccase (Lac), manganese peroxidase (MnP), and lignin peroxidase (LiP) are ligninolytic enzyme groups that have a crucial role in degrading lignin compounds. These complex components are abundant in plant biomass. This research aims to isolate and characterize microorganisms producing the enzymes Lac, MnP, and LiP from leaf litter, rhizosphere soil, and sediment in the Gunung Lumut Protected Forest (GLPF) and Sungai Wain Protected Forest (SWPF), East Kalimantan. The bacterial and fungal isolates obtained were cultured on NA and PDA media enriched with 0.05% guaiacol as a substrate. Initial selection was carried out based on the colony growth rate and the formation of a brownish discoloration zone, which indicates ligninolytic enzyme activity. The superior isolates were then tested for extracellular enzyme activity quantitatively using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer. Among the bacterial isolates, the highest Lac activity is isolated GLS 5.1.2 (173.44 U L-1); the highest MnP activity is isolated GLS 5.3 (177.41 U L-1); and the highest LiP activity is isolated GLS 5.1.2 (1034.05 U L-1). In the group of fungi, isolate SS2 was detected with the highest Lac activity (20.66 U L-1), MnP activity (333.75 U L-1), and LiP activity (2516.13 U L-1). Biodiversity sources in the Gunung Lumut Protected Forest (GLPF) and Sungai Wain Protected Forest (SWPF), East Kalimantan have the potential to produce microbial isolates with unique enzymatic characteristics that have never been reported before. The resulting microbial isolate can be used as a bioactivator in composting organic waste to produce high-quality organic fertilizer.

Indonesia’s coastline, particularly Kendal Regency in Central Java, faces critical mangrove degradation due to land-use changes and rising sea levels. This study aims to asses the condition and erosion impacting Kendal's mangrove ecosystems to inform future conservation strategies. Using remote sensing technology, multi-spatial and multi-temporal imagery from 2005–2023 was analyzed and validated with field observations to evaluate mangrove species composition, structure, and land changes. The mangrove area increased by 52% in three locations, with the Bodri River delta (Pidodo Kulon and Pidodo Wetan villages) showing the most significant growth at 76.69 hectares. Ngebum Beach (Mororejo) had the largest proportional increase, reaching 185%. The ecosystems are moderately diverse, containing at least 11 mangrove species, though Rhizophora dominates due to extensive planting efforts. Despite stable conditions, these ecosystems face threats from deforestation for aquaculture, the primary driver of land erosion, compounded by rising sea levels. Although mangrove areas have expanded significantly, ongoing challenges include erosion, anthropogenic pressures, and limited species diversity. Future strategies must involve multi-stakeholder collaboration to implement sustainable practices, promote species diversity, develop erosion mitigation models, and conduct awareness campaigns to ensure the resilience of Kendal’s mangrove ecosystems.
