Judul: Adopsi inovasi program sapta pesona pengelola hotel di Jakarta Timur
Abstrak: Sapta Pesona is a government program to increase community awareness, responsibility and action to encourage tourism activity to its development. Jakarta as a capital city of Indonesia and as one of tourism destination with all the potentions they have, include of hotel. The participation of hotel leader and employment to sapta pesona program then become an important point to be analized due to its adoption to develop tourism sector especially in East Jakarta. The purpose of this study was to: (1) analyze knowledge, perceptions and adoption of managers/leaders and employees in East Jakarta’s hotel related to innovation adoption of Sapta Pesona; (2) analyze the characteristics correlated with knowledge, perception and adoption of the Sapta Pesona by managers/ leaders and employees in East Jakarta’s hotel; and (3) analyze the increasing adoption Sapta Pesona managers/leaders and employees in East Jakarta’s hotel in order to the develop services. Research design using survey methods with the aim of searching for data and facts concerning factors related to innovation adoption of Sapta Pesona enchantment by managers/leaders and employees in East Jakarta. The study was conducted in East Jakarta hotel. The population in this study was the overall of manager/leader and employees of Star and Non-star hotel available in East Jakarta are directly related to the implementation of the Sapta Pesona enrolled in East Jakarta Tourism Agency from 2004 to 2011. The research sample was managers/leaders and employees of the hotel were directly responsible for this programm. The study could be summarized as it follows: Community knowledge, perception, and adoption are in good enough level. The increase of knowledge, perception, and adoption can be increased by improving the training, and activity such as workshop related to hotel and tourism.

Judul: Hubungan Perilaku Komunikasi Peserta Kelompok Penggerak Pariwisata (Kompepar) dengan Adopsi Program Sapta Pesona di Kabupaten Sukabumi
Abstrak: Hasil evaluasi Dinas Pariwisata Daerah(Disparda) Kabupaten Daerah Tingkat II Sukabumi tahun 1996 pelaksanaan program Sapta Pesona masih belum optimal. Pada tiga tahun terakhir sering ditemui lingkungan obyek wisata yang kotor, penanganan parkir yang kurang tertib, dan sering teijadinya kecelakaan di obyek wisata. Hasil penelitian Dirjen Pariwisata (1997) menunjukan masih banyak wisatawan yang mengeluh dan kecewa atas inutu pariwisata yalg disajikan, pelayanan yang diberikan, dan perlakuan yang mereka terima. Dilihat dari aspek komunikasi, banyak faktor yang mempengaruhi keadaan ini diantaranya yang berkaitan dengan karakteristik peserta kompepar, dan perilaku komunikasi mereka dalam menerapkan program Sapta Pesona.

Judul: Growth, Concentration Chlorophyll-a, and Structure of Macroalgae Gracilaria edulis in the Culture Media Containing Copper
Abstrak: The physiological responses (specific growth rate, concentration of chlorophyll-a, morphological and anatomical structure of the vegetative cells) of the marine macroalga Gracilaria edulis at the different concentrations of copper (0.01 as control, 0.04, 0.06 and 0,5 ppm) delivered continuously for 28 days under controlled laboratory conditions were investigated. Result showed that the degree of copper toxicity depends on both factor the concentration and exposure time. Copper concentration and day of exposure decreased significantly the specific growth rate (SGR) of the Gracilaria edulis but only 0,5 ppm Cu decreased the chlorophyll-a content when compared to control. Of the various physiological end points measured, growth proved to be the most sensitive response than chlorophyll-a with reductions in specific growth rate (SGR). The reason for this could be related to a greater sensitivity of the enzymes involved in growth than those related to chlorophyll-a or a greater energy needs to maintain cellular integrity and metabolic processes under sublethal Cu stress. In all cases, the main effect on vegetative cells were structure changes in cortex and subcortex cells, compared to control, macroalgae exposed to copper showed depigmentation and blending in the lateral branches, heavy staining of the cell wall and severe damage of cell membrane, while the mucilage and the cell walls was densely fibrillar, thick and heavily stained, the cortex cell was clearly vacuolated, the presence of endophytic on the cell wall and endophytic spores in the mucilage. The presence vacuoles should be related to a metal immobilization mechanism, minimizing the Cu toxicity for cells. The epiphytic bacteria can act as a biofilter diminishing the availability of Cu for macroalgae accumulation.
