Kabupaten Dharmasraya yang terdapat hampir disepanjang jalan lintas Sumatera belum dikenal makanan khasnya. Makanan yang biasa dijadikan oleh-oleh hanya keripik tempe. Di Nagari Lubuk Besar terdapat produk olahan khas yang biasa disajikan pada acara-acara adat dan pernikahan, yaitu Atun. Sebagian ibu-ibu dari masyarakat Nagari Lubuk Besar hanya mampu menjual produk ini sesekali pada ‘hari pasa’ (jadwal pasar tradisional), karena permasalahan umur simpan produk yang singkat yaitu 1-2 hari. Hal ini juga yang menjadi kendala Atun dijadikan sebagai oleh-oleh khas Kabupaten Dharmasraya. Teknologi pengemasan vakum adalah sistem pengemasan hampa udara sehingga memperpanjang umur simpan, sehingga produk akan lebih bertahan 2-3 kali lebih lama daripada produk yang yang disimpan dengan nonvakum.Selain itu, pembuatan produk Atun Instan dapat bertahan lebih lama dan menjadi inovasi agar Atun dapat dikonsumsi oleh konsumen yang lebih jauh. Tujuan dari kegiatan IbDM ini secara umum adalah meningkatkan pengetahuan, keterampilan, kemandirian dan semangat berwirausaha bagi anggota kelompok Wanita “Lubuk Besar Bersinar” yang tergabung dalam Kelompok PKK Nagari Lubuk Besar dengan aplikasi teknologi. Dalam pengembangan produk atun ini dilakukan transfer teknologi dalam bentuk pelatihan teknologi pengemasan hampa dan penyimpanan, pembuatan atun instan, serta penyuluhan pemasaran dan manajemen bisnis Atun dalam mengembangkan produk Atun sebagai oleh-oleh khas Nagari Lubuk Kabupaten Dharmasraya. Kata Kunci: Atun, Atun Instan, Pengemasan Vakum, Makanan Tradisional ABSTRACT Dharmasraya District, located almost along the trans-Sumatra road, is not yet known for its traditional food. Food that is used as gifts is only tempeh chips. At Lubuk Besar Village, a village of Dharmasraya, there are typically snack usually served at traditional events and weddings, namely Atun. Some woman from the community of Nagari Lubuk Besar are only able to occasionally sell this product on 'Pasa Day' (traditional market schedule) because of the short shelf life of the product, which is 1-2 days. It also became Atun's obstacle as a souvenir of the Dharmasraya District. Vacuum packaging technology is a packaging system without oxygen that extends shelf life so that products will last 2-3 times longer than non-vacuum stored products. Additionally, Instant Atun products' production can last longer and become an innovation so that more distant consumers can consume Atun. This IbDM program aims to increase knowledge, skills, independence, and an entrepreneurial spirit for members of the "Lubuk Besar Bersinar" Women group and the Lubuk Besar PKK Group with the application of technology. In developing Atun product, technology transfer is carried out in the form of training on vacuum packaging and storage technology, making instant Atun, and counseling on Atun's marketing and business management in developing Atun products as souvenirs from Dharmasraya District.ogy, making instant Atun, and counseling on Atun's marketing and business management in developing Atun products as souv Keywords: Atun, Instan Atun, Vacuum Packaging, Traditional Food

Zar, Inc., a high-tech company, has recently experienced turnover in its CEO and CFO positions. Zar, like other firms in its industry, is undergoing a down year due to the declining economy. Thomas Brown, who has recently been hired as the CFO, quickly realizes that there is little he can do to avoid the firm's first loss in many years. However, Thomas also understands that there are things that he can do to pave the way toward greater profits in the future. You are invited to listen in on three separate conversations that the CFO has with the CEO, the firm's audit committee, and finally with Zar's independent auditor. After hearing each conversation, you will be asked to evaluate the CFO's ideas as well as those of other parties to the dialogue. Some of the questions are rather straightforward and can be answered by recalling or researching specific accounting standards. Other questions are more open-ended and will require your best judgment based on the facts given in the case. Some questions may require you to provide additional information before making a definite decision. All of the scenarios focus on earnings quality and should enhance your understanding of this critical and controversial issue that pervades financial reporting today.

Environmental services of biodiversity, clean water, etc., have been considered byproducts of farming and grazing, but population pressures and a move from rural to peri-urban areas are changing land use practices, reducing these services and increasing land degradation. A range of ecosystem markets have been reversing this damage, but these are not widely institutionalized, so land managers do not see them as “real” in the way they do for traditional food and fiber products. There are difficulties defining and monitoring non-food/fiber ecosystem services so they can be reliably marketed, and those markets that do operate usually do so in a piecemeal single product way in the interest of simplicity for the buyer, and seldom adequately regulate or compensate land managers for non-market benefits. New profitable uses of degraded water and regenerating land are emerging, but they require technology transfer or supply chain development to facilitate adoption. There is a need for a transformational change in the way land and water are used to promote a broader approach, so environmental services become a mainstream activity for land managers. A far-sighted Philanthropist is required to support an International institution to take up the challenge of institutionalizing such a ‘brokerage’ system to operate globally.

The last few decades has seen an ever-increasing growth in the way activities are productized and associated with a financial cost. This phenomenon, termed financialization, spans all areas including government, finance, health and manufacturing. Recent developments within finance over that past decade have radically altered the way trading occurs. This paper analyses high-frequency trading (HFT) as a necessary component of the infrastructure that makes financialization possible. Through interviews with HFT firms, a software vendor, regulators and banks, the effects of HFT on market efficiency, and its impact on costs to long-term investors are explored. This paper contributes to the literature by exploring the conflict that exists between HFT and traditional market makers in today's fragmented markets. This paper argues that society should be unconcerned with this conflict and should instead focus on the effects these participants have on the long-term investors, for whom the markets ultimately exist. In order to facilitate the best outcomes, regulation should be simple, aimed at keeping participants’ behavior stable, and the interactions among them transparent and straightforward. Financialization and HFT are inextricably linked, and society is best served by ensuring that the creative energy of these market participants is directed on providing liquidity and removing inefficiencies.

In Brothers’ Grimm’s fairy tales, the motif of blindness occurs quite frequently, each time with a different symbolic meaning. In “Hansel and Gretel”, blindness is represented as a body deformity, an abject feature of the red-eyed, half-blind cannibalistic witch who lives in the candy house in the middle of the forest, while in “Cinderella”, blindness becomes more: a brutal punishment for wrongdoings, such as when: the wickedly unkind stepsisters’ eyes are pecked out by pigeons as they are on the way to the wedding of the Cinderella and her handsome prince. Yet, in “Rapunzel”, blindness is not meant to be an abject feature nor a direct punishment. Rather, it opens the door to the Romantic vision and spirit. Through studying the earlier versions of the Rapunzel story and the Grimm’s later version, this paper explores how blindness represents the limitations of logic and reason and, through embracing the beautiful power of the female sensibility, welcomes the rebirth of insight, faith and Romantic sentiments.

This thesis explains the characteristics of the simile concept and application of Uzbek and Korean, and the differences and similarities between the objects used as simile auxiliary ideas in Uzbek and Korean through simile example sentences. Humans have been vividly and efficiently expressing parts and various thoughts that are difficult to speak directly through the method of simile within a limited vocabulary for a long time. In particular, it can be seen that expressing animals, plants, and nature, which have always been together since the beginning of humanity, in relation to simile objects, occurs frequently in everyday life and in literary works. For a long time, many scholars around the world have found that metaphors are indispensable and important tools in human cognitive activity, and in particular, representing animals that are closest to humans is very effective in the way humans communicate.

Children’s graphic works provide a lot of information about the family. A strong bond between children and their mother and father, as people providing the sense of security, is closely related to art works concerning family made by the children. The drawings presented family became the subject of this study. Collected research material was the subject of quantitative and qualitative analysis. The analyses of the drawings allowed to notice that the way of perceiving family through the prism of relations experienced by the child (e.g. reversing proportions) was additional information about the members of the family. A variety of means of expressions used by children and elements that accompanied the figures are not only evidences of knowledge on particular topic, but they also express feelings, emotions or even expectations.
