Speech Acts Used by the Husband and Wife in the Reconciliation Processes in “Not Easily Broken”

The writer researches the language use of husband and wife in their reconciliation processes and its connection to the reconciliation processes. She uses a film, entitled “Not Easily Broken” (2009) as the representative of reconciliation of husband and wife. She researches the Speech Act of Dave and Clarice during their reconciliation processes. The writer uses the Speech Act theory (Austin, 1962; Searle, 1969; Yule, 1996) and the reconciliation process (Huyse, 2003). Inthe findings of the research, the highest illocution is ‘Representative' and automatically, the highest perlocution is from ‘Representative'. In the first and second stages, most of the perlocution does not match but in the last stage, all perlocutions match to the illocution and the reconciliation is accomplished.The conclusion is a couple should accept the fact and truth to each other to accomplish reconciliation process

Divisions-ST: Formation

Au CERN la formation est une partie intégrante des activités de l'Organisation. Mentionnée dans le Statut du Personnel depuis l'origine, elle figure au Règlement depuis 1981 et est largement explicitée dans la Circulaire Administrative N° 16. L'organe réglementaire est constitué par la Commission Paritaire de Formation (Joint Training Board dont le sigle est JTB) qui a pour but de conseiller le Directeur Général en matière de formation, de définir la politique de formation et d'en faire l'évaluation. Des organes spécifiques ont été mis en place pour organiser les différents programmes : le Groupe Formation et Développement, le Comité exécutif de formation (sigle TEC), le Comité d'enseignement académique. Des délégués divisionnaires à la formation (sigle DTO) servent de courroie de transmission entre ces organes, le personnel et le Service de l'Enseignement (Div. HR). La Division ST dont les activités présentent une grande variété se doit de poursuivre une politique de formation soutenue; elle fait oeuvre de pionnier en élaborant des plans individuels triennaux de formation , principalement pour le personnel de filière VII

SAPOCO-TIS-ST: le triangle des responsabilités

Comme dans les Etats Membres, en matière de sécurité, il existe une hiérarchie des textes et responsabilités; dans l'ordre descendant on trouve la Convention de siège, les Statut et Règlement du Personnel, SAPOCO 42, le Code de sécurité, les Instructions et Bulletins de sécurité. Les responsabilités sont assumées par le Directeur-Général, les Chefs de Division, Chefs de Groupe et de Sections; ces personnes peuvent déléguer une partie de leur autorité à des DSO, TSO, GLIMOS, SLIMOS etc; les responsabilités de ces personnes sont indiquées dans le Plan divisionnaire de Sécurité. La Commission TIS assiste le Directeur-Général, qui lui délègue son autorité pour certaines fonctions, notamment pour accorder des dérogations. Comme la Division ST se voit confier de nombreux travaux par d'autres divi sions, elle est en général responsable des conditions de sécurité; l'endroit où le travail a lieu est sous la responsabilité de la Division propriétaire. En cas d'accident grave une Commission des accidents est mise sur pied par le Directeur-Général et lui transmet son rapport

Star Cluster Formation and Disruption Time-Scales - II. Evolution of the Star Cluster System in M82's Fossil Starburst

ABRIDGED: We obtain new age and mass estimates for the star clusters in M82's fossil starburst region B, based on improved fitting methods. Our new age estimates confirm the peak in the age histogram attributed to the last tidal encounter with M81; we find a peak formation epoch at slightly older ages than previously published, log(t_peak / yr) = 9.04, with a Gaussian sigma of Delta log(t_width) = 0.273. Cluster disruption has removed a large fraction of the older clusters. Adopting the expression for the cluster disruption time-scale of t_dis(M)= t_dis^4 (M/10^4 Msun)^gamma with gamma = 0.62 (Paper I), we find that the ratios between the real cluster formation rates in the pre-burst phase (log(t/yr) <= 9.4), the burst-phase (8.4 < log(t/yr) < 9.4) and the post-burst phase (log(t/yr) <= 8.4) are about 1:2:1/40. The mass distribution of the clusters formed during the burst shows a turnover at log(M_cl/Msun) ~ 5.3 which is not caused by selection effects. This distribution can be explained by cluster formation with an initial power-law mass function of slope alpha=2 up to a maximum cluster mass of M_max = 3 x 10^6 Msun, and cluster disruption with a normalisation time-scale t_dis^4 / t_burst = (3.0 +/- 0.3) x 10^{-2}. For a burst age of 1 x 10^9 yr, we find that the disruption time-scale of a cluster of 10^4 Msun is t_dis^4 ~ 3 x 10^7 years, with an uncertainty of approximately a factor of two. This is the shortest disruption time-scale known in any galaxy.Comment: 14 pages including 8 postscript figures; accepted for publication in MNRA

Pengembangan Selancar (Surfing) melalui Pemberdayaan Masyarakat (Community Based Development) di Kawasan Wisata Pantai Kuta, Kabupaten Badung

Kuta merupakan salah satu kawasan wisata di Kabupaten Badung yang dilengkapi dengan beragam fasilitas wisata, seperti restoran, bar, hotel, laundry, dan money changer. Keberadaan kawasan wisata Kuta tidak terlepas dari atraksi wisata utama berupa keindahan pantai dengan pasir putihnya. Beragam aktifitas wisata seperti berjemur, dan surfing, dapat dilakukan di Kuta. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk (1) Mengetahui keterlibatan dan peran serta masyarakat local dalam pengembangan potensi wisata selancar (surfing) selama ini (2) Mengetahui strategi pengembangan aktifitas wisata selancar (surfing) sebagai daya tarik wisata baharí/tirta di Bali dengan memberdayakan masyarakat lokal. Pendekatan yang dilakukan dalam penelitian ini adalah pendekatan kualitatif dengan menggunakan teknik pengumpulan data, wawancara, observasi dan studi dokumentasi. Data yang diperoleh selanjutnya dianalisis dengan matriks internal eksternal dan dilanjutkan dengan analisis SWOT. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa peran serta dan keikutsertaan masyarakat lokal dalam pengembangan selancar (surfing) di kawasan wisata Kuta masih sedikit. Para pelaku dan investor mayoritas berasal dari luar wilayah Kuta. Berdasarkan analisis SWOT didapatkan strategi alternatif yang perlu dikembangkan di Kuta, antara lain: pengembangan surfing berbasis masyarakat lokal di kawasan Kuta, pengembangan usaha jasa pelayanan surfing yang dimiliki dan dikelola oleh masyarakat lokal, strategi peningkatan keamanan dan Kenyamanan bagi wisatawan yang melakukan kegiatan surfing di Kawasan Kuta, dan strategi pengembangan kelembagaan terhadap kegiatan surfing

N-body simulations of star clusters

Two aspects of our recent N-body studies of star clusters are presented: (1) What impact does mass segregation and selective mass loss have on integrated photometry? (2) How well compare results from N-body simulations using NBODY4 and STARLAB/KIRA?Comment: 2 pages, 1 figure with 4 panels (in colour, not well visible in black-and-white; figures screwed in PDF version, ok in postscript; to see further details get the paper source).

On the nature of the bi-stability jump in the winds of early-type supergiants

We study the origin of the observed bi-stability jump in the terminal velocity of the winds of supergiants near spectral type B1. To this purpose, we have calculated a grid of wind models and mass-loss rates for these stars. The models show that the mass-loss rate 'jumps' by a factor of five around spectral type B1. Up to now, a theoretical explanation of the observed bi-stability jump was not yet provided by radiation driven wind theory. The models demonstrate that the subsonic part of the wind is dominated by the line acceleration due to Fe. The elements C, N and O are important line drivers in the supersonic part of the wind. We demonstrate that the mass-loss rate 'jumps' due to an increase in the line acceleration of Fe III below the sonic point. Finally, we discuss the possible role of the bi-stability jump on the mass loss during typical variations of Luminous Blue Variable stars.Comment: Accepted by A&A, 19 pages Latex, 10 figure

Safety alarms at CERN

In order to operate the CERN accelerators complex safely, the acquisition, transport and management of safety alarms is of crucial importance. The French regulatory authority [Direction de Sûreté des Installations Nucléaires de Base (INB)] defines them as Level 3 alarms; they represent as such a danger for the life and require an immediate intervention of the Fire Brigade. Safety alarms are generated by fire and flammable gas detection systems, electrical emergency stops, and other safety related systems. Level 3 alarms are transmitted for reliability reasons to their operation centre: the CERN Safety Control Room (SCR) using two different media: the hard-wired network and a computer based system. The hard-wired networks are connected to local panels summarizing in 34 security areas the overall CERN geography. The computer based system offers data management facilities such as alarm acquisition, distribution, archiving and information correlation. The Level 3 alarms system is in constant evolution in order to achieve better reliability and to integrate new safety turn-key systems provided by industry
