ANALYSIS OF SEGMENTAL AND SUPRA-SEGMENTAL ERRORS OF JAVANESE ENGLISH SPEAKERS IN PP. DARUL ULUM AL-FADHALI

In the concept of second language acquisition, first language is able to influence second language skill. As international language, English is also become foreign language of Javanese speakers. This study analyze the errors of Javanese when pronouncing English text both is segmental (consonants and vowels) and supra- segmental (length, tone, intonation and stress) aspects. There are five participants who read the English text “The Greedy Lion”. They have to be born in Java, speak Javanese since they are child, and have Javanese language surroundings. The result shows that: 1) In pronouncing consonants, they made errors in /v/, /θ/, /ð/, /s/, /z/, /r/, /k/, and /g/; 2) In pronouncing vowels, they made errors in /i/, /ɪ/, /u/, /ʊ/, /e/, /ə/, /ʌ/, /ɔ/, /æ/, and /a/; 3) in supra-segmental aspect, they made errors in stressing word, intonating sentence, and lengthening diphthong

Analysis of Double Ring Resonators using Method of Equating Fields

Optical ring resonators have the potential to be integral parts of large scale photonic circuits. My thesis theoretically analyzes parallel coupled double ring resonators (DRRs) in detail. The analysis is performed using the method of equating fields (MEF) which provides an in depth understanding about the transmitted and reflected light paths in the structure. Equations for the transmitted and reflected fields are derived; these equations allow for unequal ring lengths and coupling coefficients. Sanity checks including comparison with previously studied structures are performed in the final chapter in order to prove the correctness of the obtained results

Sustainability Implications of Consumer Electronics Adoption in the United States

High rates of technological innovation and consumer adoption in the consumer electronics sector has led to increasing concerns about the potential implications on resource consumption and waste generation. Despite growing public and policy attention on recycling as a strategy to curb resource demand and waste management impacts, less than 50 percent of end-of-life electronics are recovered for recycling in the U.S. A critical barrier to sustainable management of electronics is the lack of data and tools to proactively estimate consumption and waste flows, to create solutions that respond to the dynamic nature of this product sector. For sustainable solutions to keep pace with the rapid rate of innovation, they must be informed by comprehensive and proactive research, that not only quantifies material flows in electronics but also investigates associated economic, environmental and social implications. This dissertation aims to fill this knowledge gap through three interconnected lines of inquiry. First, a baseline material footprint analysis is conducted to retroactively estimate the material consumption and waste generation associated with household electronic product consumption in the U.S. from 1990 until present. Results from this analysis contradict the long-standing assumption that e-waste is a rapidly growing waste stream in the U.S. In fact, the net material footprint of electronics has begun to decline, mainly due to consumers phasing out large Cathode Ray Tube TVs in favor of lighter flat panel technologies. While the analysis shows decline in potential e-waste toxicity from traditional hazards like lead and mercury, it also raises new issues of concern for e-waste management. Notably, results show high resource potential in the emerging e-waste stream with new opportunities to recover scarce metals not currently recycled. Second, a predictive material flow model based on historic product adoption behavior was developed, to enable future forecasts of resource and waste flows so that stakeholders can create proactive – rather than reactive – solutions. Adoption forecasts for emerging technologies show increasingly fast windows of product innovation and uptake. In other words, new electronics are likely to have rapid uptake in the market but may be quickly replaced by subsequent product innovations. The forecasts also suggest that waste flows for mature products like CRTs, desktops, monitors and flat panel TVs will continue to be a major issue for the short term, with declining contribution to the U.S. e-waste stream in the future. Material flow estimations predict increasing prevalence of critical materials in e-waste underscoring a need to shift e-waste management mechanisms from ‘mass’ to ‘materials’, or in other words, from an emphasis on ‘waste diversion’ to a new focus on ‘resource retention’. Finally, a comprehensive set of sustainability metrics were created and applied to assess the economic, environmental and social impacts for the wide spectrum of materials used in electronics. Material metrics help identify key material hotspots and prioritize new solutions for reducing resource demand and waste management challenges. This dissertation contributes novel data and modeling tools that can aid stakeholders across the electronics industry in making informed decisions in product design, policy planning and material recovery in electronics

Keywords Advertising: Issues of Trademark Infringement

The Internet has become a crucial advertising tool for modern-day businesses. Increasingly, business enterprises are opting for online presence, and this phenomenon has significantly transformed advertising techniques. Consumers wish to spend less time and gain optimal results whilst searching for products and services on the Internet. In this setting, enterprising entities, such as Google, have sought to make maximum use of the need for online presence which has given rise to Internet advertising schemes such as Google’s ‘AdWords. The purpose of this paper is to assess the merits (or otherwise) of the recent ruling of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) in Google v Louis Vuitton. The analysis will compare it with the approach of courts in the United States and also draw on English jurisprudence. The discussion undertaken by this paper is topical given the recent decision of the French Supreme Court (Cour de Cassation) which appears to have followed the reasoning of the ECJ. The topicality is heightened given the absence of judicial precedence in France, and the decision to remand the cases back to the Court of Appeal for a case by case decision on Google’s civil liability

Tradisi Tilik pada Masyarakat Jawa dalam Sorotan Living Hadis

Not all of Javaneses traditions are rejected by Islam, one of them is the practice of tilik. This tradition in the community has been accommodated by Islam and categorized as a term of friendship. The tradition of tilik will be discussed by using the perspective of living hadith. The theory applied in the social study of Peter L. Berger and Thomas Luckmann, by using narrative and structural analysis the following questions are explained. Firstly, how to integrate tilik tradition in Javanese society link to and the Prophet's Hadith. Second, what are the true values that exist in this tradition so that it is still being practiced until today? This paper concludes that the tilik tradition has been a ṣaḥīḥ history. The Javanese people whose culture of harmony and gathering among factors that strengthen the implementation of this ritual

Particle board using rice husk and coconut fibre

Particle boards are one of the primary products used in buildings and furniture sectors. These materials are manufactured under pressure, by combining wood particles and other lignocellulosic fibrous materials by using an adhesive. The extensive use of particle boards can add to the economic advantage of low-cost wood raw material, inexpensive agents and, simple processing. For the manufacturing of particle boards based on renewable resources, the search for lignocellulosic substitutes for wood is one of the biggest challenges that the wood industry is facing. In this project, particle boards were made using rice husk and coconut fibre, as a substitute for wood. Rice husk is the hard-protective shell of grains, obtained from rice mill.  Coconut fibre is the natural fibre extracted from the coconut husk. Three boards of different coconut fibre content (15%, 20%, and 25%) were casted. The coconut fibre and rice husk were exposed to Alkali Treatment to make the fibre free from hydrophobic substances. They were then processed into particle board using poly-ester resin as binder. The effect of fibre content on Density, Water Absorption (WA), Thickness Swelling (TS), Modulus of Rupture (MOR) and Modulus of Elasticity (MOE) were analyzed. This investigation appears as a better solution for environmental problems associated with wastes and it is economical to use for the manufacturing of composite fibre boards

CORRELATION OF SOCIAL WELFARE WITH THE DEVELOPMENT OF JAPANESE POPULAR CULTURE AFTER WORLD WAR II

Social welfare is a condition that humans strive to achieve a decent life in terms of material, social and spiritual aspects. After World War II, Japan was known as a country that experienced rapid economic and social welfare improvements. In addition, a wide range of Japanese popular culture products such as Manga & Anime, J-Pop, Video Games, and others have also grown and accompanied the established life of Japanese society. Therefore, Japanese popular culture has been supported and can spread to all corners of the world. This situation can indirectly improve the economy and existence of the Japanese state internationally, although, since the 1990s, Japan has experienced a lost decade. This study aims to discover in depth the correlation between the welfare of Japanese society and the development of Japanese popular culture after World War II. This study uses historical and descriptive qualitative methods with a multidisciplinary approach, such as history, social science, and culture. The results of this study show that social welfare is not a factor that can directly relate to or influence the development of Japanese popular culture. Other factors that lead to a marketing strategy and technology utilization, such as talented creators who have been good at finding opportunities, mass media culture, and Japanese government policies can influence the development of Japanese popular culture in domestic and abroad
