Street infrastructure is now equipped with various kinds of plant elements that known as streetscape, so the existence of the street is not monotonous. Beside the landscape of the street also has a function as a medium for green open space. Therefore, the selection of plant species and arrangement of plants in streetscape must be in accordance with the criteria of plant morphology of the streetscape. Evaluation was carried out based on the problems that occur in the suitability of species and arrangement of plants in the landscape of the street. The purpose of this study was to determine the existing conditions found on the streetscape on the Dharma Giri and to determine the suitability of species and arrangement of plants as a streetscape plant. The method used in this research was field survey with a qualitative approach. The results showed that the general condition of the vegetation and plant selection in Dharma Giri streetscape was almost in accordance with the growing conditions needed by the plants. It conditions generally grow well. Mostly the plants were planted in the median part of the street and also in both side of the street which was also able to adapt with direct sunlight exposure and was not require high intensity of watering. It was also observed from the aspect of arrangement using the approach of the three principles of design which includes themes, rhythm, and balance. However, the plant maintenance activities needs to be improved so it possibly maintained  the esthetics and function of the streetscape.

Social media and content-sharing platforms provide new opportunities for the circulation of not only professional and amateur porn productions but also “pornographic self-representation”. This study examines the interactions that occur when male pornographic self-representation is shared in an inclusive space that welcomes both straight and gay men to post dick pics and gaze/comment on them. Focusing on the Reddit forum, Massive Cock, we conducted a discourse analysis of a selection of posts, comments and account profiles collected over a seven-month period. Based on our findings, we contend that Massive is a homosocial space where homoerotic dick gazing reaffirms and disrupts the heterosexual–homosexual binary. Our findings point to an uneven dynamic in which the majority of the posters perform a straight identity, whereas the majority of commenters perform a gay identity. Their comments serve to disrupt hegemonic masculinity and, in turn, create a space that welcomes mostly straight and bi-curious performances of masculinity. Such performances are possible due to recent cultural shift away from homo-hysteria and towards a more inclusive heteromasculinity. Collectively these performances produce an inclusive “fraternity of the cock”, but it is one which maintains a heterocentric focus and function.

Culinary is one of the favorite businesses today. The number of considerations to choose a restaurant or place to visit becomes one of the factors that is difficult to determine the restaurant or place to eat. To get the desired place to eat advice, one needs a recommendation system. Decisions made by the recommendation system can be used as a reference to determine the choice of restaurants. One method that can be used to build a recommendation system is Case Based Reasoning. The Case Based Reasoning (CBR) method mimics human ability to solve a problem or cases. The retrieval process is the most important stage, because at this stage the search for a solution for a new case is carried out. The study used the K-Nearest Neighbor method to find closeness between new cases and case bases. With the selection of features used as domains in the system, the results of recommendations presented can be more suggestive and accurate. The system successfully provides complex recommendations based on the type and type of food entered by the user. Based on blackbox testing, the system has features that can be used and function properly according to the purpose of creating the system.

The food type soybean (exotic) are, in general, non-adapted to the Brazilian growing conditions. A breeding strategy to develop adapted food type soybean should involve crossing exotic with the available grain type genotypes. We evaluated the performance of topcrosses among food type and grain type soybeans. Best progenies showed different performance rates in each environment and they were not always the same in the different environments and joint analysis of lodging (L), plant height at maturity (PHM) and agronomic value (AV) was essential to avoid selection of plants with good performance for one trait and bad for another.) Piracicaba autumn environment (PA) caused low individual plant yield performance (IPY), and consequently, cultivation was not economically viable in this period. Best progenies presented appropriate trait averages for inclusion in the category of vegetable soybean in all evaluated environments.

Purpose Rather than an attempt to define or clarify resilience in terms of its characteristics, or its correspondence to reality, this paper is a series of reflections that leads to the notion of resilience as a way of being in the world. What is presented is not intended to be conclusive in any way. The paper aims to trigger thoughtful reflections that will lead to further conversations about the entailments and ethical concerns implicit in the concept of resilience. Design/methodology/approach The paper comprises reflections based on a selection of published ideas, as well as on personal engagement in the domains of ecology and the biology of cognition. In postulating that resilience may have a central, ineffable quality, the phrase “soul of” has been used as an approach to considering what such a quality may be. This formulation leads to a consideration about the nature of our relationships with the other such that the notion of resilience has become meaningful. Findings Language parses or chunks named ideas in a way that reveals some regularities and obscures others. The word resilience is one such chunk that historically has changed its meaning. Furthermore in the present the word refers to variable aspects or elements depending on the context of its usage. In the ecological context, resilience entails an ambiguous balance between persistence and change, and indeed this ambiguity may be necessary to accommodate the complexities. In all cases the author has considered, we are only concerned with resilience where there is an ethical dimension and this, inherently, must be multidimensional given the complexities of the systems being regarded. The author claims that the soul of resilience arises through an ethically oriented reflexive awareness of our dynamic flow in a relational embeddedness. Practical implications The practical implications of this paper are elusive, yet meaningful, as the paper attempts to open space for operating in an ethical and useful manner with ambiguous concepts and for avoiding the hubris of certainty. The paper is an explication of one of the ways of thinking inspired by second order science. Originality/value As the reflections in this paper are largely those original to the author, the ideas are original. Whether they have value depends on what ideas, attitudes, orientations and further reflections are triggered and whether these in turn implicitly or explicitly alter actions toward more effective care of our world. If reflection on resilience increases resilience, then this paper will have value.

The village is an integral part of cities in Indonesia since its inception. Each village is unique because it represents historical uniqueness, diverse physical patterns, complex and dynamic social systems. Jakarta City as the largest city in Indonesia has its own challenges in managing the Urban Villages. One of the urban villages in Jakarta is Tanjung Gedong Village, located in RT.05 / RW.08 Tomang Village, Grogol Petamburan District. The selection of RT.05 / RW.08 as a PKM activity partner was because the location of the target partner was around the UNTAR campus, so the PKM activity became a tangible manifestation of UNTAR's contribution to the surrounding environment. The Proposing Team has also conducted PKM activities at the Partner's location, so it is hoped that the proposed program will be sustainable. Tanjung Gedong Village RT.05 / RW.08 Tomang Village has an area of 1.3 hectares with a population of 300 people (60 households). Problems owned by Partners to create a healthy and comfortable environment for residents: First, spatial planning is not optimal and flexible to accommodate a variety of social activities from the community. Secondly, the partners currently lack green open space. The proposed solution is the Proposed Green Village Structuring Concept by involving active participation from Partners (RW-RT leadership, Residents) using 3 approaches, namely: Green Planning and Design, Green Open Space and Green community. The proposed Green Village concept is expected to overcome the problems faced by partners so that a healthy and comfortable residential environment for residents is achievedABSTRAK:Kampung merupakan bagian integral kota-kota di Indonesia sejak awal pembentukannya. Setiap kampung memiliki keunikan karena merepresentasikan kekhasan sejarah, pola fisik yang beragam, sistem sosial yang kompleks dan dinamis. Kota Jakarta sebagai kota terbesar di Indonesia memiliki tantangan tersendiri dalam mengelola Kampung Kotanya. Salah satu kampung kota di Jakarta adalah Kampung Tanjung Gedong yang terletak di RT.05/RW.08 Kelurahan Tomang, Kecamatan Grogol Petamburan. Pemilihan RT.05/RW.08 sebagai Mitra kegiatan PKM karena lokasi mitra sasaran berada di sekitar kampus 1 UNTAR, sehingga kegiatan PKM ini menjadi salah satu wujud nyata kontribusi UNTAR terhadap lingkungan sekitar. Tim Pengusul juga telah melakukan kegiatan PKM di lokasi Mitra, sehingga diharapkan program yang diusulkan akan berkesinambungan. Kampung Tanjung Gedong RT.05/RW.08 Kelurahan Tomang memiliki luasan 1,3 Ha dengan jumlah penduduk 300 orang (60 KK). Permasalahan yang dimiliki oleh Mitra untuk menciptakan lingkungan yang sehat dan nyaman untuk warga: Pertama, tata ruang belum optimal dan fleksibel untuk mewadahi beragam aktivitas sosial dari masyarakat. Kedua, saat ini mitra masih kekurangan ruang terbuka hijau. Solusi yang diusulkan adalah Usulan Konsep Penataan Kampung Hijau dengan melibatkan partisipasi aktif dari Mitra (pemangku pimpinan RW-RT, Warga) menggunakan 3 pendekatan, yaitu: Green Planning and Design, Green Open Space dan Green community. Usulan konsep Kampung Hijau diharapkan dapat mengatasi permasalahan yang dihadapi oleh mitra sehingga tercapai sebuah lingkungan hunian yang sehat dan nyaman untuk warga.

There is a general consensus that substantial heterogeneity underlies the neurobiology in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). As such, it has become increasingly clear that a dissection of variation at the molecular-, cellular-, and system-level domains is a prerequisite for identifying biomarkers and developing more targeted therapeutic strategies in ASD. Advances in neuroimaging approaches to characterizing atypical brain patterns have recently motivated their application as viable tools to delineate more homogenous ASD subgroups at the level of brain structure and function - i.e., neurosubtyping. This review assesses and critically discusses the current data-driven neurosubtyping in ASD. It breaks this pursuit into key methodological steps: the selection of diagnostic samples, neuroimaging features, algorithm and validation approaches. For each step, we appraise the current literature in terms of progress, as well as remaining challenges and potential solutions. Convergence across findings is discussed and biological implications are highlighted. Although preliminary and with limited methodological overlap, results from this literature illustrate the feasibility of neurosubtyping. Across studies, there is general agreement that distinct neurosubtypes exist, but the exact number and their definitions vary depending on the specific features and approach utilized in a given study. Results also suggest the utility of subtypes in predicting symptom severity and diagnostic labels above and beyond group-average comparison designs. This review concludes with a discussion of future avenues towards a comprehensive understanding of the mechanisms underlying ASD heterogeneity.

The 16th Meeting of the Interuniversity Institute of Myology (IIM), October 17-20, 2019, Assisi, Italy brought together scientists, pharma and patient organization representatives discussing new results on muscle research. Internationally renowned Keynote speakers presented advances on muscle development, homeostasis, metabolism, and disease. Speakers selected among submitted abstracts presented their new, unpublished data in seven scientific sessions. The remaining abstracts were showcased in two poster sessions. Young trainees where directly involved in the selection of keynote speakers, the organizing scientific sessions and roundtables discussions tailored to the interests of their peers. A broad Italian, European and North-American audience participated to the different initiatives. The meeting allowed muscle biology researchers to discuss ideas and scientific collaborations aimed at better understanding the mechanisms underlaying muscle diseases in order to develop better therapeutic strategies. The active participation of young trainees was facilitated by the friendly and inclusive atmosphere, which fostered lively discussions identifying emerging areas of myology research and stimulated scientific cross-fertilization. The meeting was a success and the IIM community will continue to bring forward significant contributions to the understanding of muscle development and function, the pathogenesis of muscular diseases and the development of novel therapeutic approaches. Here, we report abstracts of the meeting illustrating novel results of basic, translational, and clinical research, which confirms that the Myology field is strong and healthy.
