    This study explored company profiles and sales promotion letters of batik from two big batik companies in Solo, Central Java, Indonesia. Data of the research are of two types, the primary and secondary data. The former refers to words, phrases, and clauses taken from the company profiles and sales promotion letters of batik written in Bahasa Indonesia. The latter refers to transcribed data obtained from in-depth interviews with the text producers and buyers. Two batik company profiles and three sales promotion letters were analyzed. Two informants from each batik company representing the text production side were interviewed; they were the marketing and promotion managers from the two batik industries. Likewise, one buyer from each batik company representing the text consumption side was also interviewed. The research employed theories of genre analysis proposed by Swales (1990) which focused on patterns of rhetorical organization and genre-specific language features. In terms of data collection, the present study also draws on ethno-methodological tradition within the communication framework in an institutionalized socio-cultural context (Lillis, 2008). Ethnographical research primarily uncovers and describes beliefs, values, and attitudes that structure the behavior of a group (Baumgartner & Hensley, 2006). In terms of data analysis, this study employed the multi-perspective model of analysis advocated by Bhatia (2004) wihich focuses on textual and socio-cognitive aspects of the texts. The textual aspect explicates the use of text-internal features in embodying values in the context of rhetorical moves, discourse strategies, regularities of organisation, intertextuality and some aspects of interdiscursivity. The socio-cognitive aspect refers to participants’ relationship and their contributions to the process of genre construction, interpretation, use and exploitation in the context of professional practices and constraints. This study has arrived at some conclusions. First, although the most important intention of any kind of business is making a profit, the strong influence of Javanese culture has made the genuine intention of getting the profit to be less explicitly stated. In fact, the profit making notion is transformed into a more social and cultural preservation in orientation. Secondly, writers of batik company profiles seemed to acknowledge the function of these specific business documents as one of the primary image-building components in their promoting efforts. This study also found some varieties in terms of function between the established and less established image- building promotional tool. However, the textual analysis and the in-depth interviews with the text producers supported the view that company profiles of batik had been ideally used to create a potitive and favorable image upon the company through the employment of moral and cultural commitment to batik making, history, vision and mission, new technology in the production processes, organizational structure, and lists of achievements and awards. Thirdly, the most distinctive feature that differentiated establishing credentials in English and that of the Indonesian, especially in the batik business context, had been the use of moral obligation to preserve the native culture and family relation with the national heroes. Writers of the English sales promotion letters, on the contrary, highlighted the needs of future buyers and claimed that their companies were the best to fulfill the needs. Likewise, due to cultural constraints, the sales promotion letters of batik in question did not include the moves of offering incentives and using pressure tactics. The writers rather used the move of eliciting response which is less persuasive and less direct compared to that of the English sales promotion letters. Fourth, the chemistry between writers and readers of sales promotion letters and company profiles of batik constructed a strong ground for mutual understanding and thus paved the way to purchase. Finally, this study had shown very clearly how the wider culture and the culture of the discourse community contributed to the framing and formatting of sales promotion letters and company profiles of batik in terms of lexico-grammar, cognitive structuring, intertextuality and interdiscursivity. In the past, studies done in Bahasa Indonesia to business texts were more oriented to below sentence level phenomena (Kusrianti, 2008; Purnanto, 2002). Thus, the present study contributes to the study of above sentence level phenomena, especially the features and convensions of sales promotion letters and company profiles of batik. Additionally, the present study provides input to writers of sales promotion letters and company profiles to have a direct, persuasive, clear, and systematic promotional text especially for export purposes. Last but not least, the present study has provided a perspective into the written business communication of batik industries drawn from an empirical study

Way Kanan government has issued a regulation of Way Kanan Regent about NSA. Three years later after implementing the regulation, some infringements are still found. Therefore, there needs to analyse the implementation of the NSA policy in District of Way Kanan. This was a qualitative study by conducting indepth interview and observation. Main informants consisted of Way Kanan Regent, head of District Health Office (DHO), Secretary of Education Authorities, head of tranquility and public order department at SatpolPP office, head of P2PL at DHO, head of planning section at education authorities, and head of general affairs sub department at SatpolPP office. Informants for triangulation purpose consisted of head of health promotion section, two heads of health centres, a legislator, two visitors of health centres, a teacher, two staffs of DHO, and two students. Data were analysed using content analysis. The results of this study showed that the NSA policy just had been implemented only in the environment of education and health and not been implemented in all areas. DHO had sufficient human resource but available budget and means were limited. Education authorities and SatpolPP just had human resource. Coordinating between institutions, supervising, and monitoring were unstructured and not routine. A community and a parliament had not fully supported this policy by which the draft local regulation of NSA had not been approved. DHO, Education Authorities, and SatpolPP office had commitments and were responsible to this policy. Another factor influencing this implementation was the turn of the Regent. DHO needs to form a socialisation team of the policy. In addition, advocacy to the Regent and the parliament members needs to be conducted in order to approve the local regulation of NSA. DHO also needs to make a mechanism of complaint from a community and to provide counselling to stop smoking.

    Reading comprehension and writing as the crucial skills must be instructed effectively in order to engage the students in the meaningful teaching and learning process. One of the ways to increase students' reading comprehension and writing achievement is by the use of paraphrasing strategy in the classroom instruction. Through the application of the paraphrasing strategy, it is easy for the students to internalize the information of the original source comprehensively; thus, students' reading comprehension achievement is increased. In relation to the improvement of students' reading comprehension achievement, students' writing achievement is also increased by the use of paraphrasing strategy since the students can rewrite the text in to their own writing style. Therefore, the use of paraphrasing strategy is considered as one of the beneficial ways used to enhance students' reading comprehension and writing achievement

    Sanjaya, Machmudin D, Kurniawati ND. 2010. Kajian histologis infeksi SlNPV terhadap berat badan dan kerusakan membran peritrofik larva Spodoptera litura. Nusantara Bioscience 2: 135-140. Pengaruh infeksi SlNPV pada berat badan dan kerusakan membran peritrofik larva Spodoptera litura Fab. telah dilakukan. Metode yang digunakan adalah analisis probit, dan berdasarkan LD 50 virus yang terinfeksi untuk mengetahui berat badan dan kerusakan pasca infeksi. Kerusakan struktur histologi yang disebabkan oleh infeksi SlNPV (0, 315, 390, 465, 540 dan 615 PIB/mL) diamati setelah 0, 12, 24, 72 dan 96 jam pasca infeksi. Preparasi histologis dibuat dengan metode parafin setelah fiksasi dengan larutan Bouin, kemudian diiris setebal 7 um dan diwarnai dengan Hematoxilin- Eosin. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa paparan SlNPV menyebabkan penurunan konsumsi pangan terutama pada 540 PIB/mL dengan rata-rata 0.1675 mg. Pengamatan deskriptif pada struktur histologi membran peritrophic yang terkena infeksi SlNPV menunjukkan kecenderungan kerusakan, sementara pada kontrol tidak ada kerusakan sama sekali. Semakin lama paparan virion di dalam lumen midgut maka semakin tinggi terjadinya kerusakan membran peritrofik. Kerusakan paling parah terjadi 96 jam setelah infeksi. Hasilnya membuktikan bahwa virion haNPV dapat menghancurkan struktur histologi midgut. Kata kunci: SlNPV, Spodoptera litura, LD50, tingkat konsumsi, membran peritrophic
