Some rubber farmers in Indonesia use un-recommended latex coagulant and it causes bad quality of rubber. The utilization of organic latex coagulants has the potential way to improve rubber quality. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of pineapple exocarp extract, gadung tuber extract and liquid of pulp cocoa fermentation as latex coagulants toward rubber quality. The study was using Randomized Completely Block Design with six treatments and four replications the treatments tested was 10 ml and 20 ml pineapple exocarp extract, 10 ml and 20 ml gadung extract and 10 ml and 20 ml liquid of pulp cocoa fermentation. The parameters observed were contact time, weight of rubber and rubber characteristic which are comprised of serum clarity, rubber color and rubber stinky smell produced, ash content and volatile matter compared to Standart Indonesian Rubber (SIR) 20. The result of this study showed that 20 ml latex coagulant had faster contact time than others and increased weight of the rubber. It showed that rubbers produced a bit stinky smell as well, it was better than rubbers produced by inorganic latex coagulant.

The admission of new students (PPDB) is a school agenda that is held every year. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the zoning-based PPDB Program in SMP Negeri 2 Pabelan, Semarang Regency. Program evaluation is done by assessing any discrepancies/gaps between the program standards from the central government and the actual conditions of the PPDB program that occurred in SMP Negeri 2 Pabelan. This type of research is a program evaluation research using Discrepancy Model developed by Malcolm Provus. The Discrepancy Model consists of 5 stages: the design stage, the installation stage, the process stage, the product stage, and the cost-benefit analysis stage. However, this research only used 4 stages, namely the design stage, the installation stage, the process stage, and the product stage. Data collection used in this study were, interview, observation, and documentation. The results showed that the design of the category program was sufficient (conformity score 73.3%), the installation of the good category program (100% suitability score), the process of the good category program (suitability score 92.86%), and the program product category was good (the suitability score 87.5%).

Bangunan modern didominasi oleh penggunaan bahan – bahan pabriksasi, terutama kaca. Bahan pabriksasi ini apabila penggunaannya tidak tepat serta dengan desain arsitektur yang tidak memperhatikan iklim tropis lembab di Indonesia, mengakibatkan ketidaknyamanan penghuni. Hal tersebut meliputi penggunaan bahan pada selubung bangunan yang menyangkut mutu dan warna bahan serta desain sistem pembayangan baik berupa sun shading device maupun komposisi bangunan, disamping itu orientasi bangunan juga merupakan hal yang penting terhadap perolehan panas matahari. Studi dilakukan pada bangunan modern yaitu gedung Sukowati Semarang yang minim akan sun shading device dengan selubung bangunan yang didominasi oleh kaca, terutama pada  facade timur dengan persentasi kaca 67 % dan facade selatan dengan prosentasi kaca                55 %. Kaca yang digunakan adalah kaca berwarna gelap jenis panasap atau kaca warna. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan facade timur dan selatan memiliki nilai Overall Thermal Transfer Value (OTTV) adalah di atas standard 45 Watt / m2, maka terjadi ketidaknyamanan penghuni.

Due to fierce competition between organizations, the relevant organizations need to develop every resource they have, especially Human Resources. Good employee performance may improve the quality of organization. This happens through vigor, dedication and absorption in work, which is called engagement. To improve this, employees need to feel happy and comfortable with their work. This study aims to determine relationship between psychological well-being and work engagement. The subjects in this study were 114 employees of PT. Sumatera Berlian Motors selected with the purposive sampling method. The results of data analysis with the Pearson Product Moment showed coefficient of r = 0.315 and a significance value of 0,000 (p &lt;0.05). This shows that there is positive relationship between psychological well-being and work engagement. Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that the research hypothesis is accepted, namely there is positive relationship between psychological well-being and work engagement.

Cultivation activities on mug bean lands have the potential to cause N2O emissions. Efforts to reduce N2O emissions through the selection of low-emission mug bean varieties. The study was conducted at the Experimental Garden of the Agricultural Environment Research Institute, Jaken, Pati, Central Java, in July 2018 until October 2018. The experimental design used was a randomized block design with six replications and four mug bean varieties: (1), Gronong (2), Menthik (3), PB and (4), Vima 3. Parameters measured were flux and N2O emissions, plant height, number of leaves, number of branches, leaf greenery, weight of 100 seeds, yield of dry beans per tile, and yields. The results of the analysis showes that PB varieties produced N2O emission values for the lowest 1 (one) growing season of 0.17 kg ha-1season-1. Meanwhile, from the results of productivity, the Menthik variety has the highest average yield of dried seeds, which is 1.38 tons ha-1. PB varieties have a higher average weight of 100 seeds (6.28 grams 100 seeds-1). So, in mung bean varieties that produce low emissions, not necessarily have high productivity as well. Greenhouse gas mitigation strategies, especially to reduce N2O emissions can be done by selecting varieties, balanced by good soil treatment, and effective and efficient fertilization.
