Idamdehe village has geothermal potential that can be used for fish processing. However, until now the use of this potential has not been carried out optimally. Geothermal in this area is only used as a tourist<br />attraction for local people to visit. However, utilization for fisheries processing has not been carried out. This research aimed to observe the use of geothermal in fisheries processing. The research method was carried out with different treatments, including traditional and conventional methods. Fish samples used for processing were yellowstrip scad fish (<em>Selaroides </em>leptolepis<em>)</em>. The results of the study showed the value of geothermal vapor temperature increased along with the increase of the depth of excavation, namely in 20 cm with a temperature value of 90oC, a depth of 30 cm with a temperature of 100oC. The process of fish processing using geothermal steam only took 30 minutes with a temperature of 100oC, while the conventional method using geothermal steam took 1 hour with a temperature of 100oC.

Study Design: Retrospective study of the prospectively collected outcomes data. Objective: The indications for PPS placement during minimally invasive spine stabilization (MISt) procedures have increased in recent years. To the best of our knowledge, no studies have documented the outcomes of PPS insertion using the all-in-one PPS system. This study compared the conventional methods and the use of all-in-one percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) system with respect to the speed and accuracy of PPS placement. We also determined the advantages associated with the use of the all-in-one PPS system. Methods: We evaluated 54 patients who underwent PPS insertion using the conventional method and the all-in-one PPS system during MISt procedures. We also assessed the number of implanted PPSs, the time taken to implant PPSs, and the accuracy of PPS placement based on postoperative computed tomography images. Results: A total of 254 PPSs were inserted (126 using the conventional method and 128 using the all-in-one PPS system). The PPS insertion time with the all-in-one PPS system (mean, 25.3 ± 9.1 s) was significantly shorter than that using the conventional method (mean, 63.1 ± 13.0 s; P < 0.01). With respect to the accuracy of PPS insertion, ≥ 2 mm pedicle breach was noted in one case each in both groups. Conclusions: PPS placement using the all-in-one PPS system is as safe as conventional methods and has the potential to save the surgical time of MISt procedures.

A number of urban challenges are encountered by modern societies. Governments, businesses and public bodies need to make statistical data widely available in order to tackle these challenges. Nonetheless, current literature and data are problematic; they have inaccuracies which lead to less effective methods of resolving these issues. This research aims to solve this challenge by thinking of a university campus as a microcosm of society, implementing a data integration schema, and combining data into a knowledge graph. Existing completion methods will then be applied and updated. Especially in regards to bicycle environment, our knowledge graph was tailored and evaluated in line with conventional methods, and secondly with our proposed derivative methods. Roughly 650 pieces of parking data, with various dates and times, was contrasted with each time's mean absolute error. Our approach accurately projected 54.5 more bicycles than the conventional method.

PowerPoint is a slide show presentation program from Microsoft, which also one of the most widely used programs to develop visual presentation all over the world. PowerPoint has become enormously popular because of the functionalities offered and since it is designed to be easy to use. Previous researchers stated PowerPoint as one of the best tool to facilitate users to deliver idea/objective/goal, especially in education field. But some of the researchers argue that in today’s environment, PowerPoint no longer be the best tool to deliver information. This research aims to evaluate and design the content of the slide which influences the level of students understanding on information being presented. This research will be comparing three methods at once, which are a conventional method where the material course will be presented without any PowerPoint and are limited to boards and books. The second method will be a material-course presentation using a PowerPoint where it was using an aesthetically pleasing and methodically correct PowerPoint. And the last method would be the combination between the two. By using a statistical test ANOVA that among three methods there is no significance impact to the students understanding. Nevertheless, based on the test score that are done after treatment the results show that the quality of PowerPoint slide has an influence to the level of students understanding compared to conventional methods (blackboard and textbook). But only attractive slide itself is insufficient to improve students understanding, this study will incorporate conventional method and attractive slide through content visualization in order to gives a better impact on students understanding.

Mathematical problems are often solved without using conventional methods but using intuition thinking. Intuitive thinking is a cognitive process that leads to ideas as strategies for making decisions that produce spontaneous answers in solving problems. Spontaneous answers are written and spoken expressions that help a person solve math problems without using analytical thinking. This study aims to describe the various forms of intuition that arise when students solve math problems. The research method used is descriptive qualitative method to describe students' intuitive thinking processes through test instruments and interviews. The results showed that the form of intuitive thinking that emerged was (1) affirmatory intuition, namely direct cognition to understand the problem and (2) perceptual and global components, because students made perceptions of the answer solutions to be generated, then resolved until they got the results. In addition, it was also found that intuitive thinking that is raised as a strategy in making decisions is based on feelings, intrinsics and interventions to produce answers to solving the problems faced

To the Editor.— I would like to comment on the article by Freed and Fraley in the March 1992 issue of Pediatrics.1 I have no argument with their study design and in fact applaud them for using Altman and Bland's method of analysis. Their conclusions, as written, are correct, that the tympanic thermometer "is unreliable compared with conventional methods of temperature determination." The three issues that I would like to raise are: (1) the relative accuracy of rectal and tympanic temperatures in predicting core temperature, (2) rectal temperature as the "gold standard," and (3) axillary thermometry as an acceptable conventional method of clinical temperature.

Reliable data on the sources of Listeria monocytogenes contamination in cold-smoked fish processing are crucial in designing effective intervention strategies. Environmental samples (n = 512) and raw fish samples (n = 315) from two smoked fish processing facilities were screened for L. monocytogenes, and all isolates were subtyped by automated ribotyping to examine the relationship between L. monocytogenes contamination from raw materials and that from environmental sites. Samples were collected over two 8-week periods in early spring and summer. The five types of raw fish tested included lake whitefish, sablefish, farm-raised Norwegian salmon, farm-raised Chilean salmon, and feral (wild-caught) salmon from the U.S. West Coast. One hundred fifteen environmental samples and 46 raw fish samples tested positive for L. monocytogenes. Prevalence values for environmental samples varied significantly (P &lt; 0.0001) between the two plants; plant A had a prevalence value of 43.8% (112 of 256 samples), and plant B had a value of 1.2% (3 of 256 samples). For plant A, 62.5% of drain samples tested positive for L. monocytogenes, compared with 32.3% of samples collected from other environmental sites and 3.1% of samples collected from food contact surfaces. Ribotyping identified 11 subtypes present in the plant environments. Multiple subtypes, including four subtypes not found on any raw fish, were found to persist in plant A throughout the study. Contamination prevalence values for raw fish varied from 3.6% (sablefish) to 29.5% (U.S. West Coast salmon), with an average overall prevalence of 14.6%. Sixteen separate L. monocytogenes subtypes were present on raw fish, including nine that were not found in the plant environment. Our results indicate a disparity between the subtypes found on raw fish and those found in the processing environment. We thus conclude that environmental contamination is largely separate from that of incoming raw materials and includes strains persisting, possibly for years, within the plant. Operational and sanitation procedures appear to have a significant impact on environmental contamination, with both plants having similar prevalence values for raw materials but disparate contamination prevalence values for the environmental sites. We also conclude that regular L. monocytogenes testing of drains, combined with molecular subtyping of the isolates obtained, allows for efficient monitoring of persistent L. monocytogenes contamination in a processing plant.

ABSTRACTObjectives: To evaluate the success of certain methods that can be used in the removal of separated instruments from different levels in curved and straight canals.Methods: Instrument removal attempts were undertaken on 63 straight and 30 curved canals containing a pre-fractured instrument using the ultrasonics under the visualization of an operating microscope or conventional methods. In straight canals, a Masseran Kit was additionally used to these techniques. The success of instrument removal in relation to the techniques used and the location of the fragments in the root canal were evaluated. Successful treatment was defined by the removal or complete by passing of the fragments.Results: The overall success rate was found 93.3% with ultrasonics and 66.6% when only conventional methodswere used in curved canals. In straight canals, also the success rate was the highest with ultrasonics (95.2%). This was followed by conventional method (80.9%) and the least by Masserann Kit (47.6%). When the success rate was investigated according to the location of the broken instruments, the lowest rate was found in the apical third of root canal.Conclusions: Location of the fragment and the shape of the root canal influence the success of fractured instrument management. Ultrasonics under the visualization of an operating microscope was found to be an effective removal method. (Eur J Dent 2009;3:90-95)

Drill cuttings are generally used in open pits and quarries as the most common stemming material, since these are most readily available at blast sites. The plaster stemming method has been found to be better than the drill cuttings stemming method, due to increased confinement inside the hole and better utilization of blast explosive energy in the rock. The main advantage of the new stemming method is the reduction in the cost of blasting. At a limestone quarry, blasting costs per unit volume of rock were reduced by 7%. This is obtained by increasing burden and spacing distances. In addition, better fragmentation was obtained by using the plaster stemming method. Blast trials showed that plaster stemming produced finer material than the conventional methods. In the same blast tests, +20 cm size fragments reduced to 42.6% of the total, compared to 48.7% in the conventional method of drill cuttings stemming.
