Authors: Rachim Febiningtyas Rista Eka , Ekaningtias Diah 
Published: October 2015

The role of local government has been increasing significantly since the enactment of regional autonomy by the central government. In this case, the majority of central government authorities are delegated to each local government. Consequently, the success of development and economy of the region depends largely on the local government concerned. The performance of local governance will run well, if there is adequate government apparatus that support the local government activities. The good performance of the government apparatus will have an impact on the achievement of goals and responsibilities of the local government, the central government and the public. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find out whether variables of leadership, motivation and work discipline can affect the performance of employees of finance section in the regional working units of Tulungagung Regency. The samples in this study are the employees of finance section in the Regional Working Units of Tulungagung Regency. Based on the multiple linear regression analysis test, it can be concluded that the variables of leadership and work discipline have significant effect on the performance of employees, while the variable of motivation does not have significant effect on the performance of employees of finance section in the Regional Working Units of Tulungagung Regency.
The effect of association, ability, and credibility of companies implementing CSR on the analysts’ investment recommendations
Authors: Nurkholiva S Chindi 
Published: October 2015

The awareness of the importa nce of social responsibility among companies has recently improved significantly. The goal is to increase the profit, which, in turn, to maintain the sustainability of the company. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is not new in the world of business. The perception which states that analysts would provide a good assessment to companies for supporting CSR activities has prompted several companies to adopt CSR for their daily activities. This study uses the sample of brokers or stock analysts taken by using questionnaires. The stock analysts are divided into two groups. The first group is the stock analysts who know about the company's CSR but do not follow the development. The second group is the stock analysts who know and follow the development. The data in this study were analyzed using multiple linear regressions. The result shows that for the first group, it is only credibility variable which significantly affects the analysts’ investment recommendations, while for the second group; it is only association variable which significantly affects the analysts’ investment recommendations.

AbstractBackground:This study is a part of the IFCC-global study to derive reference intervals (RIs) for 28 chemistry analytes in Saudis.Method:Healthy individuals (n=826) aged ≥18 years were recruited using the global study protocol. All specimens were measured using an Architect analyzer. RIs were derived by both parametric and non-parametric methods for comparative purpose. The need for secondary exclusion of reference values based on latent abnormal values exclusion (LAVE) method was examined. The magnitude of variation attributable to gender, ages and regions was calculated by the standard deviation ratio (SDR). Sources of variations: age, BMI, physical exercise and smoking levels were investigated by using the multiple regression analysis.Results:SDRs for gender, age and regional differences were significant for 14, 8 and 2 analytes, respectively. BMI-related changes in test results were noted conspicuously for CRP. For some metabolic related parameters the ranges of RIs by non-parametric method were wider than by the parametric method and RIs derived using the LAVE method were significantly different than those without it. RIs were derived with and without gender partition (BMI, drugs and supplements were considered).Conclusions:RIs applicable to Saudis were established for the majority of chemistry analytes, whereas gender, regional and age RI partitioning was required for some analytes. The elevated upper limits of metabolic analytes reflects the existence of high prevalence of metabolic syndrome in Saudi population.

Abstract
Comprehensive chronological, geological andpaleontological investigations were conducted as part ofarchaeological excavations in 2011 and 2012, prior to theconstruction of the M85 motorway between Gyor andCsorna, Hungary. These studies clearly show that the alluvialfan that underlies much of the Little Hungarian Plainwas built up by streams flowing in a southeasterly to northwesterlydirection from the nearby Bakony Hills, and continuedto form until the end of the last glacial period. Thenorthern part of the fan, now named the Csorna Plain,became inactive (i.e. became a fossil river-bed system) atabout 25–15 ka, when the Rába and Marcal rivers changedtheirflowdirection fromsouth–north towest–east.As a resultof this change in flow direction, the Rába and Marcalrivers became incised, capturing the Bakony stream beds,stopping sediment deposition on the northern side of thealluvial fan (essentially the left bank of the Rába-Marcalriver system), although the southern part of the fan continueto form as before. On the northern side of the fan, thesediment surface dried out due to falling groundwater levels,and aeolian sand-drifts began to form. Eventually, accumulationof the sand-drift sediments ceased due to thedeposition of loess-type sediments, which fixed the surface,conserved the sand-drift shapes, and contributed tothe straightening and eventual canalization of the fluvialchannels. Geoarchaeological examinations indicate thatthe development of present fluvial features were stronglyaffected by the settlement and tillage activity of humancommunities on the Csorna Plain.

Training Environmental Managers to Control Invasive Plants: Acting to Close the Knowing–Doing Gap
Authors: Lavoie Claude , Brisson Jacques 
Published: October 2015

AbstractMany conservation land managers working with invasive plants rely largely on their own experience and advice from fellow managers for controlling weeds, and rarely take into consideration the scientific literature, a concrete example of a knowing–doing gap. We argue that invasion scientists should directly teach managers best practices for control. In 2013, we created a training program on five invasive plant species, specifically tailored to Québec (Canada) environmental managers. The course material was science-based, and included details on methods and costs. Here, we explain how this idea emerged, how the program was constructed and which types of managers were targeted. With modest resources, we reached 163 managers in less than 18 mo, who collectively oversee invasive species management for 41% of the Québec population. We presented factual information for all control methods, giving the environmental managers the tools to critically and objectively assess various options. Participants especially appreciated the highly practical content of the training and that they could submit their own invasion case for discussion. This program represents significant progress in narrowing the knowing–doing gap associated with the control of invasive plants in Québec, and we encourage such initiatives elsewhere for all fields of invasion biology.

Published: October 2015

Objective: To describe the chronic lower back pain functional profile in a population-based sample. Methods: A total of 2,297 individuals aged around ≥ 20 years were selected from 34 regions of Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. In order to characterize samples, sociodemographic data were collected. And, in order to describe functional profile, the body map and functional items were applied based on Oswestry questionnaire. Results: Between 28.6% and 68.8% of the population with CLBP presented disability, depending on the analyzed function. Chronic lower back pain was negatively associated with function in lifting objects (rarely, OR 2.39 IC 95%, 1.15-4.97) and remaining seated (OR 10.40 IC 95% 3.32- 32.46). In opposition to that, walking was associated to increased function (frequently, OR 0.47 IC 95% 0.30 – 0,72). Conclusions: Chronic lower back pain is frequently associated with disability. Lifting objects and remaining seated were the functional items that presented higher association with disability. Walking habits seem to be a protector from this disability in chronic lower back pain individuals.

Up to the end of the twentieth century, Arabic and English have played an important role as the media for communication all over the world. Both languages are significantly used in not only national but also global scopes. Millions of people in the world today use either passive or active Arabic and/or English in their daily lives. The question is,’ will the global community in the 21st century still put these international languages in a position as important as it is today?’ Trends in the use of languages in the world can be viewed from several different aspects, among which are the economic strength of a language and the demography of language users. Although so far there has been no fixed agreement on the criteria of a language to be called as “the world language” yet, there is a tendency that by mid 21st century there will be trends in the world’s language domination and hierarchy. The trends will also involve the global use of Arabic and English. The two languages are predicted to still have an essential position as the world’s major languages and therefore will be used globally. The use of Arabic and English is strongly predicted to undergo a transition in a positive way. In addition to that, it is not impossible that by mid 21st century, there will be a tendency of bilingual education (using foreign languages in presenting non-linguistic school subjects) spreading in the world’s urban areas, including those areas in Indonesia.
SASTRA AL-QUR’AN DI TENGAH ALIRAN SASTRA INDONESIA
Authors: Syaifuddin Helmi 
Published: October 2015

<br /><br />Throughout Indonesia’s long history, the meaning of Indonesian art has been the subject of debate. Is just “art for arts sake”, or is there a more obscure socio-political message behind the more obvious depictions. In socio-political context it would seem that Indonesian art expresses socio-political themes, but in examples depicting surrealism, absurdity, existentialsm, prophetic art and post-modernist etc. Indonesia’s art is nor a modern phenomenon. Indonesia’s art seems to continually focus on the more superficial; ideas without attempting to make even minor changes to past cultural influence. In this context therefore the emergence of a new paradigm is not surprising, and the emergence of a Koranic influence in Indonesian art is becoming the latest paradigm in interpreting the reality and meaning of contemporary indonesian art.
BAHASA SEBAGAI ALAT KOMUNIKASI PUBLIK DAN PEMBANGUNAN WACANA
Authors: Rahardjo Mudjia 
Published: October 2015

Language is the most important tool we have for effective human communication, and the efficacy of communication is therefore directly related to the quality of this oral communication medium. The effectiveness of communication depends on several factors, the most important of which are the contents of the communication, the parties involved in the communication and the setting in which the communication takes place. Bad communication can lead to a complete breakdown in relationship and cause misunderstandings which quite often lead to conflicts between elements in the social structure. Effective communication has a very important role in creating an environment for reasoned debat, discussion and understanding in global society, and in this regard the current American approach to creating conducive to reasoned debate on the issue of global terrorisme is hypothesized to be in the less-than-effective category.
PERAN MAKNA DALAM PENERJEMAHAN

Published: October 2015

Basically translating is not merely transferring meaning behind the words or sentences in a source language into a target language, but also considering many things to identify the real meaning such as, situational, linguistic, and cultural contexts.We should take into account some principles regarding the word meaning, that is, 1) meaning is changeable due to the time change, and the change is not an absolute requirement for any word; 2) a word in a language with different dialects may have different meanings, it is due to the meaning extension and reduction; 3) a word does not refer to the thing it refers to, but it is only a symbol; and 4) a word often has more than one meaning. Therefore, meaning has an important role in a process of translation from a source language into the a target language. For that reason, a translator has to consider which component of meaning accuracy is in line with the meaning in the source language to be translated into the target language.

TERJEMAHAN CONJUNCTIVE RELATION (CR) DALAM NOVEL MIXED BLESSINGS DAN NOVEL BERKAH PENUH COBAAN
Authors: Sriyono Sriyono 
Published: October 2015

<p>This paper discusses the form and meaning of conjunctive relation and how conjunctive relation is translated from source language into target language. The different system amongst languages in forming words, sentences or paragraph might represent peculiar form and meaning. As a part of element in determining logical meaning, conjunctive relation can be in the form of conjunction, verb, noun, preposition and implicit. Those forms signal how unity of a text is constructed. In translation, the use of conjunctive relation forms frequently make problem for translators since it is closely related to logical meaning in a text. In translating text, different meaning between two languages should be occasionally translated into different form and meaning of the two languages. To understand a text comprehensively, a reader must know the unity of a text. One of the aspects to determine unity of a text in translation is conjunctive relation. The unity of a text can be covered with the conjunctive relation which signal logical relation among clauses, sentences and paragraph, so that in translation cohesiveness of a text is interpreted well both in source text and target text.</p><p>Keywords: Terjemahan, Conjuctive, Relation, Makna, Logis</p>
NEUROLINGUISTICS PERSPECTIVE ON LEXICAL PERCEPTION AND SEMANTIC DISORDER OF AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
Authors: Indah Rohmani Nur 
Published: October 2015

Autism patients get suffer from language disorder that can be identified from the late of speaking, the problems in processing linguistic information and understanding the speech meaning. This triggers to the learning problems that is worsened by attention disorder. The language acquisition is also affected by the limited vocabularies, starting from lexical perception up to vocabularies that are parts of semantic acquisition. In neurolinguistics perspective, complexity of language disorder for the spectrum autism can be explained based on the perceptual information management and the domination of his brain hemisphere. Linguistic information is processed in monoprocessing due to different hemisphere domination that happens after the process of brain lateralizes that ends up to the base of different lexicon perceptual system and the semantic acquisition for spectrum autism so that his expressive language skill reaches far beyond his receptive language. This strengthen the argumentation that language pathology is based on the relation between brain and linguistic mechanism.<br />Keywords: Neurolinguistics, Lexical Perception, Semantic Disorder, Autism Spectrum Disorder<br /><br />
NEGATIVE TRANSFER OF INDONESIAN COLLOCATIONS INTO ENGLISH AND IMPLICATIONS FOR TEACHING ENGLISH AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
Authors: Said Mashadi 
Published: October 2015

One of the most challenging problems for EFL students is to be able to express themselves not just grammatically but also acceptably and naturally in English in appropriate contexts. The ability to produce acceptable and natural expressions in English is closely related to the EFL students’ competence in collocation—which words go together in normal usage. The present study provides an empirical analysis on negative transfer made by Indonesian EFL students in lexical collocation and recommends practical ways to help students improve their competence in collocation. Data for the study was collected from essays written by 40 EFL university students majoring in English in Indonesia whose native language is Indonesian. The students were asked to write a two- to three-page essay on an assigned topic. Of 445 lexical collocation errors found in the English writing, 321 (72%) were negative transfers of Indonesian lexical collocations into English. The findings suggest the necessity of direct teaching of collocations, the use of The Collins WordbanksOnline, and the need to design bilingual collocation dictionaries.<br />Keywords: Negative Transfer, Lexical Collocation, Indonesian Collocation, Acceptable Collocation<br /><br />
NATIVIZATION AND USE OF BORROWING WORDS IN BAHASA INDONESIA
Authors: Husin Saifuddin Ahmad 
Published: October 2015

Bahasa Indonesia, the national language of Indonesia, has traditionally borrowed items from the world’s classical languages, Sanskrit and Arabic. However, elements from European languages, especially English, have also massively influenced the expansion of Bahasa Indonesia’s lexicons. Massive influx of the latter has caused a controversy among Indonesia’s linguists and other experts. Should greater loan be made from the former, as traditional source of borrowings, or should Bahasa Indonesia borrow more from the latter, as the language of modernity symbol in Indonesia? The controversy has been cleverly resolved with the adaptation and combination of elements of seemingly conflicting sources to serve specifically Indonesian objectives. In the lexical modernization of Bahasa Indonesia, despite the apparent irreconcilability of the two approaches to the use of foreign borrowings, Indonesians are effectively utilizing in a systematic manner the diverse foreign languages that their rich and varied history has made available to them.<br />Keywords: Lexical Borrowing, Nativization, Bahasa Indonesia, Language Modernization<br /><br />
