Marine debris is one of the biggest pollution problems in the world. There are various potentials of marine and beach tourism to attract tourists, but in turn, cause a waste disposal accumulation and coupled with the built-in garbage that comes from the sea. The research was conducted at Tasik Ria Beach, Tombariri, and Marine Field Station of the Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Sam Ratulangi University in Likupang. The aims of this study were (1) to identify the types of marine debris, and (2) to determine and compare the spatial distribution pattern of marine debris in the two designed locations. The sampling technique adapted from the shoreline survey methodology designed by NOAA was used in the study. Data were then statistically processed and analyzed using data mining software (MS Excel and Orange). This study found that the category of plastic and rubber waste is the most common category with the total amount on Tasik Ria Beach 54.39% and 97.55% in the Marine Field Station of Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences in Likupang respectively. The correlation coefficient between the composition of the amount and mass of marine debris is 0.89 which indicates a close relationship between the amount and mass composition. There are many factors that cause the distribution of various types of marine debris, one of which is the activities of the people around the coastal area.Keywords: Marine debris; Category; Type; CompositionAbstrakSampah laut merupakan salah satu masalah polusi yang besar di dunia. Beragam potensi wisata bahari dan pantai menjadi daya tarik wisatawan namun aktivitas wisata dapat mengakibatkan adanya buangan sampah oleh masyarakat dan wisatawan, ditambah lagi dengan sampah bawaan yang berasal dari laut. Penelitian ini dilakukan di Pantai Tasik Ria, Tombariri dan Laboratorium Fakultas Perikanan dan Ilmu Kelautan Universitas Sam Ratulangi untuk mengidentifikasi jenis sampah laut di perairan pantai Minahasa bagian utara dan mengetahui persebaran dan perbandingan distribusi sampah laut dua lokasi penelitian. Berdasarkan hasil pengambilan sampel dengan mengadaptasi metode Shoreline Survey Methodology berdasarkan NOAA yang kemudian diolah dan dianalisis secara statistik dengan menggunakan beberapa perangkat lunak (MS Excel dan Orange) diperoleh kategori sampah plastik dan karet sebagai kategori yang paling banyak ditemukan dengan komposisi jumlahnya di Pantai Tasik Ria sebesar 54,39% dan 97,55% di Laboratorium Fakultas Perikanan dan Ilmu Kelautan. Nilai koefisien korelasi antara komposisi jumlah dan massa sampah laut sebesar 0.89 yang menyatakan hubungan yang erat antara komposisi jumlah dan massa. Banyaknya faktor yang menyebabkan terdistribusinya beragam jenis sampah laut, salah satunya adalah aktivitas masyarakat di sekitar wilayah pesisir.Kata kunci: Sampah Laut; Kategori; Jenis; Komposisi

Infant mortality now needs more attention from various parties, especially infant mortality caused by asphyxia neonatorum. Based on WHO data, the number of newborn deaths as many as 4 million babies as a result of asphyxia neonatorum, this condition contributes to the death rate in children under 5 years old of 38%. This study aims to determine the correlation of gestational age to the incidence of asphyxia neonatorum in Kediri Regency Hospital Period of January to June 2017. This study is an analytic study with retrospective cohort approach. This study took place in Kediri Regency Hospital. The study data were taken on 2-28 November 2017. The sample size was 62 respondents, chosen by simple random sampling technique. The independent variable is gestational age and the dependent variable is the level of asphyxia neonatorum. Dependent and independent variables were measured using data collection sheets, the data were taken from the medical record. Quantitative data analysis techniques used spearman rank test. 35 respondents who had aterm gestational age, 60% of them had moderate asphyxia, while from 24 respondents who had preterm gestational age, 83.3% of them had moderate asphyxia and 12.5% had severe asphyxia. The analysis result of Spearman Rank of IBM SPSS was 22 asymp sign (2 tailed) obtained result as α= 0.01 < 0.05.

Malaria is endemic in Nigeria and it has a close relationship with poverty. Poverty influences the risk of having  malaria. Malaria in children of under-five cannot be controlled when there is lack or poor compliance with various preventive strategies including awareness and use of insecticide treated nets (ITN). The target set when “Roll Back Malaria” (RBM) was launched in 2000, was that about 60% of children younger than 5 years and mothers in Nigeria should have been sleeping under the insecticide treated nets by 2015.  Objectives: This study examined the awareness and use of ITN by mothers of under-five and also identified factors that are associated with use/non-use by mothers of under-five in Akuku-Uno Community of Delta State with a view of assessing levels of attainment of the Abuja Targets for malaria prevention. Methodology: This study were carried out in four (4) quarters namely: Ugulu, Umuaja, Umutu and Obeiti of Akuku-Uno Community. It employed descriptive survey design using simple random sampling technique and was conducted among 350 mothers of under- five who gave their consent within the period of 4 weeks study. Data was collected using self structured questionnaire using Pearson product moment correlation coefficient with a value of 0.74 at 0.05 level of significance.  Analyses were done using SPSS Version 16. Results: Majority of respondents (96.3%) were aware of ITN. A good number of respondents (87.1%) possess ITN and (96.7%) claim they have the ITN from health centres . The night before the survey,59.7% of respondents slept under ITN while the  reasons for non-compliance include don’t have good one 32%, not long 26% and  adverse reaction is 42%. Respondents that claimed to have seen ITN was 96% . Those that have good knowledge with regards to malaria were 46% compared to respondents (54%) that have poor knowledge of malaria. Respondents that uses  only one method to prevent malaria were 52% . A good number of respondents (91.5%) used ITN. Respondents (40%) mentioned high temperature as symptom of malaria. For challenges faced by respondent in using ITN, 71.4% of mothers faced no challenges and 87.8% of respondents claim to use ITN for protection. Conclusion: This study showed that many of the mothers and under -five in this malaria endemic area (96.3%) are aware of ITN and 59.7% of them actually slept under the ITN the night before survey. The net must be readily made available to encourage mothers of under- five  to use them. Negative perceptions such as rumor of death which was about 9% leading to non compliance should be corrected and mothers be encouraged  to use the ITN.

Tent encampments have become an especially common form of homelessness in West Coast cities like Oakland, California, where the number of people living in tent encampments increased by 130 percent between 2017 and 2019. Living in tent encampments provides residents both benefits and risks, depending on the encampments’ location, size, and stability. Using data from Google Street Views, I document the growth and spatial dynamics of tent encampments in west and central Oakland over the last decade. The number and size of tent encampments rapidly increased between 2014 and 2019, varying widely in their stability. City interventions like the city’s outdoor transitional housing sites displaced several large tent encampments. Combined with overall tent encampment growth, these displacements dispersed the encampments throughout nearby neighborhoods and other parts of the city.
