Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate consumers’ buying intentions (BIs) towards sustainable properties with green living concept (GLC). It also aims to examine the dynamic relationships between environmental advertisements (EAd), green brand positioning (GBP), attitude towards environmental responsibility (ER) and consumers’ sustainable properties BI in the Malaysian context. Design/methodology/approach Data were collected via online questionnaire survey, which yielded 143 completed usable responses. Structural equation modelling–partial least squares (Smart PLS, version 3) was used to analyse the data. Findings The findings of this study revealed that EAd and GBP significantly affect consumers’ attitude towards ER, which in turn affects consumers’ BI of the sustainable properties with GLC. Practical implications This study suggests that without inculcating a positive attitude towards the environment among consumers, it becomes a daunting task to drive consumers to purchase sustainable properties in Malaysia. Thus, the marketers should focus on green promotional activities to attract more customers to buy sustainable properties with GLCs. Moreover, it is suggested to target the right market segment to secure more sales. Social implications The findings of this study will enable the government and the social marketers to understand the drivers of buying sustainable properties with GLC, which in turn will contribute to the higher environmental welfare. Originality/value This study is among the pioneers to examine consumers’ sustainable property purchase intention. It provides significant insights for the social marketers and policymakers to understand how to motivate consumers to purchase sustainable properties with GLCs. Moreover, this study has investigated few comparatively new links such as the direct effect of EAd and GBP on attitude towards environmental responsibility and the mediating effect of attitude towards environmental responsibility between environmental stimuli and consumer’s sustainable properties BI.

Pendidikan memerlukan proses yang terus menerus sehingga guru perlu meningkatkan profesionalismenya. Guru profesional tidak hanya menguasai bidang ilmu, bahan ajar, dan metode yang tepat, tetapi mampu mengembangkan empat komponen kompetensi guru yaitu pedagogik, kepribadian, profesional, dan sosial. Guru yang tidak mempunyai sikap profesional dapat menyebabkan siswa sulit berkembang dengan baik. Pembuatan media pembelajaran merupakan salah satu solusi untuk mengatisipasi media yang susah didapat Guru dapat membuat sendiri media pembelajaran sehingga tidak memerlukan biaya yang mahal. Pembelajaran menjadi relevan dengan media yang dikonsep sendiri oleh guru. ada cara yang mudah untuk guru untuk membuat media pembelajaran sendiri yaitu dengan slide master. Menu slide master terdapat dalam program Microsoft Power Point yang sering dipakai oleh guru. Slide Master mempunyai keunggulan yang interaktif sehingga dapat melibatkan siswa dalam pembelajaran. peneliti berinovasi untuk melakukan pelatihan pembuatan CD PITBUS (Pembelajaran Interaktif Buatan Sendiri) perlu digalakkan agar guru dapat membuat media pembelajaran berbasis multimedia sendiri. Program pelatihan pembuatan CD PITBUS ini akan dilaksanakan di SMP N 1 Turi.  Education requires a continuous process so that teachers need to improve their professionalism. Professional teachers not only possess the right field of knowledge, teaching materials, and methods, but can develop the four components of the competency of the teacher: pedagogic, personality, professional, and social. Teachers who have no professional attitude can cause students to be difficult to develop well. Learning media making is one of the solutions to the media that can be difficult to obtain Guru can create their own learning media so that it does not require expensive costs. Learning becomes relevant to the media that the teacher has conceptualized. There is an easy way for teachers to create their own learning media that is with master slides. The master slide Menu is included in the Microsoft Power Point program, which is often used by teachers. Master slides have an interactive advantage that can involve students in learning. Researchers are innovating to conduct a CD making training in PITBUS (interactive learning) needs to be encouraged so that teachers can make their own multimediabased learning media. The PITBUS CD making Program will be held at SMP N 1 Turi.

Cell death plays a crucial role for a myriad of physiological processes, and several human diseases such as cancer are characterized by its deregulation. There are many methods available for both quantifying and qualifying the accurate process of cell death which occurs. Choosing the right assay tool is essential to generate meaningful data, provide sufficient information for clinical applications, and understand cell death processes. In vitro cell death assays are important steps in the search for new therapies against cancer as the ultimate goal remains the elaboration of drugs that interfere with specific cell death mechanisms. However, choosing a cell viability or cytotoxicity assay among the many available options is a daunting task. Indeed, cell death can be approached by several viewpoints and require a more holistic approach. This review provides an overview of cell death assays usually used in vitro for assessing cell death so as to elaborate new potential chemotherapeutics and discusses considerations for using each assay.

AbstractFor decades, international law has denied the right to secede even if it enshrines self-determination. Existing scholarship explains this contradiction by opposing the right to self-determination and the principle of territorial integrity: self-determination itself does not justify a valid claim to the disputed territory. This article, against conventional wisdom, argues that the opposition is superficial. The real problem lies within the notion of self-determination itself. Self-determination contains within it two opposite faces: one breeds separatist movements; the other supports unification and territorial sovereignty. Historically, self-determination grounded both union and separation in the rise of the nation-state; secessionist self-determination only came into play when epochal wars had weakened the sovereignty of the parent state. Conceptually, the ambiguity of self-determination makes defining the ‘self’ a daunting task for the law, especially when both the parent state and the seceding group make national claims.
