Abstract. The purpose of writing this article is to bring up a new idea or idea in the form of a method called a pure package system. This method emerged against the background of several problems that occurred in the holding of the simultaneous general election in 2019, one of the causes of the problem was the large number of uses of the 5 (five) ballot papers that were punched which had an impact on many things. Through the use of applied field research methods, it is hoped that valid data will be obtained with the aim of finding, proving, and developing knowledge so that in the future it can be used in solving problems and as a solution to solve a problem in the field. The results in the form of ideas or ideas with the name of a pure package system can later become an input in designing a policy related to the procedures for holding simultaneous elections to be held in the future to minimize the risk of problems that will occur and realize logistics cost efficiency in holding simultaneous elections.

Fungsi Sistem Indera Manusia Perspektif Sains Terintegrasi Al-Qur’an dan Hadits

Human basically only know a science only from experts, without realizing the source of that knowledge. Science is the application of the Qur’an and Hadith is the source of knowledge. This study determine the integration of the functions of the sensory system according to the integrated scientific view of the Qur'an and hadith. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with the producing descriptive data in the words obtained when looking for references from literature sources with a literature review approach (Library Research). The results of this study indicate that the function of the human sensory system according to science is only in the essence of hearing, seeing, smelling, feeling and touching. In science the human senses function as producers of perception and even as facilities for developing knowledge about something. Meanwhile, according to the Qur'an and hadith, the function of the human sensory system is as a facility for increasing the faith and piety of a servant to Allah SWT. Based on science, the Qur'an and hadith both function the human senses as a complementary facilities in developing knowledge so that a person further increases the essence of Allah presence in carrying out sensory functions.

Do Infants Really Learn Phonetic Categories?

Early changes in infants’ ability to perceive native and nonnative speech sound contrasts are typically attributed to their developing knowledge of phonetic categories. We critically examine this hypothesis and argue that there is little direct evidence of category knowledge in infancy. We then propose an alternative account in which infants’ perception changes because they are learning a perceptual space that is appropriate to represent speech, without yet caring up that space into phonetic categories. If correct this new account has substantial implications for understanding early language development.

The formation and functioning of the Airbnb neo-tribe

Some Airbnb host communities display the characteristics of neo-tribes. The neo-tribe literature offers rich insights into the life of a neo-tribe, but their formation and ongoing functioning remain under-researched. This paper investigates these issues using a netnographic approach that explored the formation and practices of a Tasmanian Airbnb Host Forum. The results reveal the reason for its formation and the functions of the neo-tribe, particularly as a support mechanism for hosts and defiance against perceived marginalisation by the tourism industry that has refused to embrace hosts; residents who viewed hosts as traitors; the government who regulates their entrepreneurial activities; and the media who vilified them. This study contributes to theory by developing knowledge on the stages of neo-tribal formation, and the influence that these stages have upon the ongoing function of the tribe.
