Technology is providing support to almost all the sectors around the world. The agriculture sector is also getting greatly benefitted with the advancements in technology. Automation has always been an issue with the various organizations associated with the agriculture sector. But, various organizations have now already started making use of smart technology in order to automate for faster delivery and more accurate results. This research paper also focuses on one such issue related to one of the agriculture based organizations in the Sultanate of Oman. With the advent of some free and open source tools such as LiveCode Community Edition, the development of such a solution has become much easier. The aim of this research is to provide an electronic channel for the user to receive various information and product updates. In order to make sure about the necessity of such system development, the researchers have conducted surveys and interviews among various people. The analysis held that such solution in the agriculture industry can make the operations highly fast along with transactions. Further, the usage of free and open source tools to develop such a solution could be very beneficial to the end users as well as the organizations. Researchers have suggested a methodology that suits the nature of research and the research requirements.

Modern cell phones are required to receive and display alerts via the Wireless Emergency Alert (WEA) program, under the mandate of the Warning, Alert, and Response Act of 2006. These alerts include AMBER alerts, severe weather alerts, and (unblockable) Presidential Alerts, intended to inform the public of imminent threats. Recently, a test Presidential Alert was sent to all capable phones in the U.S., prompting concerns about how the underlying WEA protocol could be misused or attacked. In this paper, we investigate the details of this system and develop and demonstrate the first practical spoofing attack on Presidential Alerts, using commercially available hardware and modified open source software. Our attack can be performed using a commercially available software-defined radio, and our modifications to the open source software libraries. We find that with only four malicious portable base stations of a single Watt of transmit power each, almost all of a 50,000-seat stadium can be attacked with a 90% success rate. The real impact of such an attack would, of course, depend on the density of cellphones in range; fake alerts in crowded cities or stadiums could potentially result in cascades of panic. Fixing this problem will require a large collaborative effort between carriers, government stakeholders, and cellphone manufacturers. To seed this effort, we also propose three mitigation solutions to address this threat.

Viral pandemics are a serious threat. COVID-19 is not the first, and it won't be the last. As the whole world is going through the black phase of COVID-19 virus, the scientists are trying to invent a fighting vaccine against the same. Each and every sector in every part of the world is infected by the outburst of the fatal virus. Right from business and trade to sports and entertainment, every aspect of life is suffering a lot. To combat the outbreak of the pandemic, most of the countries have used partial to complete lockdown as the only weapon to stop the spread of the virus. In the current scenario, almost all the private sector companies as well as the government offices have suggested all the employees to work from home to stop the community spread of the disease that may occur if people come in mutual contact. While we think of governing authorities around the world, each and every government provides some e-facilities to their citizens to some what extent. Generally E-Governance can be stated as the facility to receive each and everything electronically i.e. you don’t need to go to outside home to receive any document or order. In this paper, we briefly described the different aspects of e-governance.

Social media today is a medium that many access by almost all levels of society in Indonesia. This is because almost all levels of society can easily access social media. Ease in social media makes all the people of Indonesia easy to receive information from all over Indonesia and the world. Ease in accessing social media and the opening of information gates through social media encourages the birth of irresponsible elements by disseminating information that is inconsistent with the reality. The issue is growing rapidly among the people of Indonesia, it is given the lack of selective and critical attitude of the people of Indonesia in receiving information contained in social media. Negative impacts that may arise may arise related to selective and critical attitude in receiving information on social media is the diminution of national resilience values. The above issues become the basis of reference for authors in compiling this article. It uses the descriptive method of analysis by using an understanding that Prof. Driyakarna is theoretical educational science. It is expected to encourage Indonesian people to be more selective and critical of information spread across various social media.

The Relationship

  As we know that there are three major forces in the world that greatly affect the economic system, namely the Socialist economic system, the Capitalist economic system, and the Islamic economic system. Zakat, infaq, and alms are an important and clear part of the Islamic economic system. Therefore, the Zakat Forum together with the Indonesian Institute of Accountants (IAI) compiled zakat accounting in 2007. In 2008 IAI finalized PSAK No.109 on Zakat Accounting. This study aims to determine the suitability of the application of PSAK No. 109 regarding accounting for zakat, infaq/alms at the Depok City BAZNAS Institute. This study uses qualitative research with analytical descriptive methods and the data used in this study are primary data obtained from interviews and literature studies. This research concludes that BAZNAS Depok City has implemented PSAK No.109 on accounting for zakat, infaq/alms as well as possible because almost all regulations in PSAK No.109 are followed by BAZNAS Depok City. The application of PSAK No. 109 concerning Accounting for zakat, infaq/alms at BAZNAS Depok City as evidence of the management's commitment in realizing transparency and accountability in the management of zakat infaq/alms. Some regulations that are not implemented by the Depok City BAZNAS are not so fatal, namely the Depok City BAZNAS does not take amil funds if the zakat or infaq is bound, Depok City BAZNAS does not buy assets under management from zakat funds, Depok City BAZNAS does not manage them first. In the past, infaq funds, but for a maximum of 2 months, had to be directly distributed to those entitled to receive them, and finally BAZNAS Depok City did not reveal the nature of the relationship between amil and mustahik.

In the 21st century, the world became a sign of globalization: global conflicts, global disasters, global economy, global Internet, etc. The Polish researcher Casimir Zhigulsky defines globalization as a kind of process, that is, the target set of characteristic changes that develop over time and occur in the modern world. These changes in general are reduced to mutual rapprochement, reduction of distances, the rapid appearance of a large number of different connections, contacts, exchanges, and to increase the dependence of society in almost all spheres of his life from what is happening in other, often very remote regions of the world.

The Thomas More Society of Buenos Aires begins or ends almost all its events by reciting in both English and Spanish a prayer written by More in the margins of his Book of Hours probably while he was a prisoner in the Tower of London. After a short history of what is called Thomas More’s Prayer Book, the author studies the prayer as a poem written in the form of a psalm according to the structure of Hebrew poetry, and looks at the poem’s content as a psalm of lament.
