It is located under a single family’s home in a quiet residential neighborhood in northern Virginia, just outside Washington, DC.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> In fact, it once was really a garage that was converted into a neat, but sparsely furnished room. There is a big computer monitor, the only sign of high technology other than a cellular phone, and some paintings on the walls.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Nothing else is special except for a big half-finished painting —a little too big for the room— that greets visitors when they entered the studio. The painting is an oil-on-canvas portrait of the next president of the United States of America.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> <span class="inline inline-right"><span class="caption" style="width: 396px;">Acehnese Machyar Mustafa Gleunta poses for a photograph in front of his painting of US President-elect Barack Obama, at his studio in Virginia. <i>(JP/Yenni Djahidin)</i></span></span> </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “I was so inspired by Barack Obama’s speech in New Hampshire during the primary election,” said Machyar Mustafa Gleunta, an artist from Indonesia who lives in Virginia. From then on he said he knew that Obama is a different kind of politician.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “He gives hope to people, not only for Americans, the hope that we can change ourselves if we make up our mind,” Machyar said.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “Maybe the idea is not new, but I thought it’s very unique,” he said of Obama’s speech.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> The 37-year-old artist said he was so moved by what he heard that he immediately started a sketch of Obama. He said an American organization commissioned the painting, but he is not allowed to reveal the organization until the painting is ready to be displayed.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> The 70x60 inches portrait shows Obama writing at a desk by a big window overlooking the US Capitol building. “I’m still working on it. The painting is very complex but I want to finish it by the end of the year,” Machyar said during an interview conducted solely in English, a language he used to get a scholarship in the United States.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Born in the small village of Matang, Glumpang Dua, in Aceh, Machyar grew up in a modest household. His father is a carpenter. His stay-at-home mother designed and sewed her own clothes.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “When I was about five years old, I always looked at books and the pictures jumped at me,” he said of his first interest with pictures and paintings. “I started to draw and make sketches with colored pencils because we didn’t even have crayons in the house,” he said.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Machyar said he was so attracted to drawing that he decided to enter a technical high school hoping to become an architect. However, he said, the school didn’t suit him very well. So, he kept painting, this time pictures of landscapes and other aspects of daily life.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “I was able to sell the paintings and support myself as a teenager,” he said. That’s when Machyar realized that painting can be a profession and he wanted to learn more about it. He took tests to enter public universities four times and he failed them all.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “In a way, it was good that I failed the tests,” he said with a smile. Machyar studied English privately and was able to get a 500 points score on TOEFL, a standard test. With the TOEFL test score, he started sending inquiries to foreign embassies in Jakarta and seeking information about scholarships. After two years, he finally received a response from the United States embassy.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “AMINEF said they would try to help me,” Machyar said. Trying is the best word to describe his next effort to win a scholarship. AMINEF, short for the American Indonesian Exchange Foundation, provides, among others, the Fulbright Program to promote mutual understanding between Indonesia and the United States through educational exchange and academic scholarship.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Machyar said he went to AMINEF’s office everyday and talked to visitors from the States, including businessmen and academia. He told them his intention to seek a scholarship in the United States.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “After two years, I finally received two offers: One from a university in Maryland and one from Maine,” he said. He finally decided to take the offer from Maine College of Art, in Portland, Maine, where he studied for two years. After that, he continued his studies at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia, where he studied more about neo-classical style. <br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Machyar’s paintings are realistic, some with subdued color. Some of them also show the flag of the Aceh’s freedom movement (GAM). In fact, he said, that while studying in Philadelphia, he was also involved in an advocacy group to promote human rights in Aceh. He said he was concerned about the military treatment of Acehnese.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “When you talked to the military personnel, one on one, they agreed with your ideas, but when they are in the war zone, they forgot that we are brothers,” Machyar said.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> He also said he is happy with current developments in Aceh and lauded the policies of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “We just hope that the conditions in Aceh will get better and better,” he said.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Machyar said his parents and family are still living in Aceh. He choked up a little bit when he talked about his family. “I miss them very much. I haven’t seen them for 12 years. It’s been very hard not to be able to see them for such a long time” he said.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> His parents’ house does not have a telephone or electricity so it is hard for him to communicate with them.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Living as an artist is not as glamorous as it looks. Like many young artists, Machyar struggled to support himself in a foreign country. He said a disciplined life helped him.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “Artists have to do whatever to survive as an artist. Painters are no exception,” he said. He explained that his work is fine arts and not mass produced commercial paintings. He declined to say how much his paintings are worth, but added that he earned enough to be able to survive.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “A painting business is very unpredictable. Sometimes, it takes years to close one sale,” he said. “But I have to keep painting. I have to do whatever it takes to survive, including working at a construction site,” he added.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “The real price of art is priceless,” Machyar said. “There is no limit to the value. People can pay, say, 1 thousand dollars for my work, but in two years the price may go much higher,” he said. <br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Four years ago, Machyar was commissioned to do a portrait of the civil rights leader and former American ambassador to the United Nations, Andrew Young.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Machyar is now married to an American woman. They are hoping to settle in Virginia and visit his family in Aceh. He is now in the process to become a US citizen. Still, he said he has a dream.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “I want people to know that you should set your dream high,” he said philosophically. </p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “However, if you miss it, it’s not a big deal,” he added quickly.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> When asked if he has achieved his goal, Machyar said his goal has expanded.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “I have achieved what I expected in Aceh, but my goal has expanded,” he said, but declined to elaborate. Later, he said that he wanted to have his own studio when he and his wife are able to fund it.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> With the American presidential inauguration only a week away, there is frenzy in Washington to get a glimpse of the incoming president and his family. Still, Machyar hopes he would be able to present the painting to Obama personally when the commissioning organization makes a final decision about where to display the painting.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> Like many others, Machyar also hopes President Obama can make positive changes in the world. “Obama’s speech is not only for America. It transcends to all groups worldwide,” he said.<br /></p><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><p style="text-align: justify;"> “I hope this administration will change how the American government does things,” he said, adding that he can connect very deeply to Obama’s story and share a similar dream.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: justify;">Di Kutip dari <a href="http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2009/01/18/dream-acehnese-painter.html">http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2009/01/18/dream-acehnese-painter.html</a><br /></p>Kumpulan LKP & Skripsihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05172596871595446578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823001563951046599.post-30650176725988960102008-07-27T11:22:00.000-07:002008-07-27T11:29:14.049-07:00Changing attitudes about change: longitudinal effects of transformational leader behavior on employee cynicism about organizational change<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Summary</span> :Using longitudinal data collected in two waves, nine months apart, from 372 employees, this research is an empirical assessment of individual-level change within an organizational setting.<br />Specifically, strategies used by change implementers were operationalized as six transformational leader behaviors, and then hypothesized to influence employees’ cynicism about organizational change (CAOC). A combination of social learning theory, and communication<br />research served as the theoretical rationale to explain transformational leadership’s hypothesized effects. As posited, transformational leader behaviors (TLB) generally were associated with lower employee CAOC. Further, the direction of causality was consistent in suggesting that the TLB reduced employee CAOC. A discussion concerning the ethical use of TLBs and recommendations for future research are provided. Copyright#2005 JohnWiley & Sons, Ltd.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Introduction</span><br />The topic of organizational change has been an active area in management research for decades.<br />Despite its consistent attention, the change literature has seemingly little empirical data to advance research and inform practitioners in the area of process change, or actions undertaken to enact change (Armenakis & Bedian, 1999). That is not to say that it has been completely ignored; however, the general focus has been on conceptual change models, the context of change (i.e., factors underlying successful change efforts; e.g., see Baer & Frese, 2003) and factors relating to organizational effectiveness (Armenakis & Bedeian, 1999). This rings particularly true for the leadership literature in which studies typically show a single ‘snap-shot’ of leaders’ influence on followers and conclude that leadership is effective or not. Given the difficulty of collecting valid data that demonstrates utility of leadership over time, the gap in the literature is accordingly understandable. Nonetheless, evidence regarding theinfluence of leadership behavior over time is seminal to evaluating the overall utility of any particular leadership style. Thus, we see a strong need for empirical evidence from longitudinal research testing the efficacy of leader behavior on employee attitudes over time. Although we are expressly interested in leadership, we think it is important to link leadership to the larger context of organizational change since leadership influence on followers represents organizational change at the individual level.<br />Kanter, Stein, and Jick (1992) provide an organizing framework for examining the consequences of strategies used by change implementers on the outcomes experienced by change recipients. In the current study, these two categories are operationalized by transformational leader behavior (i.e., strategies used by implementers) impacting the cynicism about organizational change of employees (CAOC; i.e., attitudes of the change recipients toward change). Further, so that the relationships can be better understood, we used a longitudinal research design (i.e., cross-lagged panel) that allows for the exploration of change across time, as well as the direction of those relationships.<br />Through Kanter et al.’s (1992) framework, we examine whether or not change implementers’ strategies have the influential positive effects upon change recipients hypothesized by leadership researchers. Put simply, we are interested in understanding whether transformational leader behavior reduces</div>Kumpulan LKP & Skripsihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05172596871595446578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823001563951046599.post-88983137132670737542008-06-20T22:43:00.000-07:002008-06-20T22:46:06.171-07:00Mass Media Coverage<div style="text-align: justify;">Professor J.

CFD are identi¯ed from market values and betas of a company's debt and equity. The market expects costs of ¯nancial distress of 5% of ¯rm value for observed leverage ratios. In bankruptcy, distress costs can rise as high as 31%. Across industries, CFD are driven primarily by the potential for debt overhang problems and distressed asset ¯re-sales.

In this era of cut-throat competition, what an organisation requires is not just framing the right strategies, but also managing the same. The impact of the right strategies will automatically be reflected in the results. Moreover, any organisation has to understand that it needs to give impetus not only towards the financial results but also towards satisfaction of the customers, development of state-of-the-art technologies and creation of an environment of learning and growth. The Balanced Scorecard is such an innovative tool which has considered not just the financial indices but also the non-financial indicators as equally critical in determining organizational performance. This tool brings a link between strategy and action. Due to these, the framework is gaining increasing importance among different business houses.</div>Kumpulan LKP & Skripsihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05172596871595446578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823001563951046599.post-65960737138417110922008-06-19T03:36:00.000-07:002008-06-19T03:39:02.681-07:00Pengaruh Kepribadian Type A dan Peran Terhadap Stres Kerja Manajer Madya<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">ABSTRACT</span><br />The research is designed to study the effects of type A personality and role to job stress an job performance in the company in Central Java.

Without treatment this disease is characterized by high morbidity and mortality.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Objective:</span> To review the surgical management of constructive pericarditis and the post operative challenges.<br /><br /></div><span style="font-weight: bold;">Methods:</span> Eleven patients who had pericardiectomy for constructive pericarditis between 2000 and 2005 were studied. Data was obtained from the operating theatre register, histopathological reports and patient’s case notes.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Results: </span>The mean age was 33 years with a range of 14 to 53 years. There were seven males (63.6%) and four females (36.4%). Seven (63.6%) out of the eleven patients operated were treated for pulmonary tuberculosis. The cause of pericardial constriction in four patients (36.4%) was undetermined. Follow up period was between 4-59 months. The mean follow up was 17.5 months. Seven patients (63.6%) were off diuretics and had no exercise intolerance. Patients were classified using the New York Heart Association (NYHA) n (NYHA) functional and therapeutic classification in class I-V. Two patients preoperatively in class III are now in class I after surgery on low dose diuretics. One patient who had calcific constrictive pericarditis and came in class III was now in class II with diuretics after 3 years of follow up. There was no postoperative mortality. One patient was lost to follow up.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Conclusion:</span> Pericardiectomy is a useful procedure for constrictive pericarditis and was beneficial to all the patients in this study with an improvement in their functional capacity.

They are the unifying interest and tribalism. The later is not in a context of traditional anthropology. The fact can be seen from the trend of regionalism recently, particularly in the region of North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe. In the effort of balancing the competitive ability among the three regions, and in making them synergized, it is necessary to pay close attention to the formation of competitive supremacy from time to time. Besides that, since regionalisation involves a group of countries, each of which has each own national interest, it is necessary that the synergy effort has to be led to a balance on the similar element/feature, and not the effort of interest accumulation of each country member of a region. Within this context, this study is conducted with reference to the above mentioned principles, and it is focused mainly on the ASEAN region in which Indonesia is the most influencing country member. The study focuses on the current regionalisation development of the three main regions. Also, the study predicts the targets they intend to achieve by identifying the dominant parameters for the targets and correlates the parameters with the targets. In addition, the extrapolation towards the globally shared values into the concept of Indonesia’s National Resillience is done. The extrapolation is done to enrich the concept of Indonesia’s National Resillience, and the result of which can further be used to strengthen the regional resillience concept. This enriched regional resillience concept is then translated into quantitative parameter which are adopted as the indicators of the regional resillience concept.<br /></div>Kumpulan LKP & Skripsihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05172596871595446578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823001563951046599.post-5960137238360327922008-06-19T03:18:00.000-07:002008-06-19T03:20:10.975-07:00INOVASI DAN SENI PADA VALUE ENGINEERING UNTUK PENGELOLAAN KONSTRUKSI<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Abstract </span><br />The success of a project is often evaluated on the basis of the cost amount the project has spent and the punctuality of completing the project. In effect, such aspect as how the project executor is able to interpret the asset user’s interest to do his/her business activities successfully in the project is frequently unobserved. This project executor’s interpretation ability can be seen from the project design he/she creates to meet his/her customer’s satisfaction, for example comfotable atmosphere and function fulfilment of the project.

The reason is that this subject may enable ITB’s graduates to be technopreneurs when they graduate. In his opinion, a technopreneur is regarded as a critical success factor in increasing both Growth National Product (GNP). Therefore, their role in resolving Indonesia’s current multi dimensional crises and enhancing Indonesia’s development will be very significant. The writer also claims that this subject is relevant for ITB’s student-who will become engineers and specialists in arts when they graduate-since technopreneurship subject teaches the students how to do business in the field of engineering and art and train the students to acquire technopreneur’s qualities such as being critical, innovative, reasonable, positive thinking, risk taking person.</div>Kumpulan LKP & Skripsihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05172596871595446578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823001563951046599.post-15091731392703139772008-06-19T03:05:00.000-07:002008-06-19T03:12:34.378-07:00Kepentingan Strategis ITB Sebagai Aktor Nonteritorial Transnasional Bidang Iptek<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Abstract</span><br />The globalization ambivalence era requires a nation to be more anticipative than just reactive to a change taking place in the world so that the nation is able to sustain its existence in the world. Another character that complements this anticipative character i.e. non-territorial transnational actor (ANT) is also needed by a nation to prolong the nation’s existence. Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), as one of Indonesia’s ANTs, can play its role in introducing both Indonesia’s traditional or indigenous and intellectual knowledge to the international community. This role may soon be realized if ITB’s community is willing to change its by sector policy into a policy with which ITB (as an ANT) can make the best use of one of its main assets: grey Literature in its interaction with the international community. Grey Literature is defined as an entity representing the whole ITB’s intellectual experience. To accomplish this role, a set of ITB’s strategic programs is descibed. One of the programs is to make the best use of all Indonesia’s embassies to be ITB’s grey Literature agent and relate it with the 8 (eight) leading edge technologies that are predicted to be dominant worldwide in the future.</div>Kumpulan LKP & Skripsihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05172596871595446578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823001563951046599.post-5545898815281310042008-06-19T03:02:00.000-07:002008-06-19T03:05:48.583-07:00Governance Teknologi di Masyarakat : Sebuah Pendekatan Jejaring-Aktor<span style="font-weight: bold;">Abstract </span><br /><div style="text-align: justify;">Technology governance in community relates to the coordination, technology steering and operation which are aimed at the achievement of the predicted or ntended social impact. The mutual shaping between technology and community implies that technology governance has to take into account of technology diffusion and innovation whose process is co-evolutionary in nature. In this paper, a methodological framework which is designed to understand technology governance is based on actor-network theory. A case study about the implementation of technology scanner to process a census of population data is presented to ilustrate the application of the above-mentioned methodological framework.

Overall, the findings supported the proposed model. Political conservative ideology has indirect effect, and believe in a just world has direct effect on sacred violence. This study also revealed that jihad is the strongest predictor of sacred violence, whenever jihad is activated, mortality salience is deactivated. Contrary to our prediction, believe in a just world has appositive direct effect on sacred violence. Implication of these findings to terror management theory, beliefs and ideology theory were discussed.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Keywords:</span> jihad ideology, political conservative ideology, believe in a just world, mortality salience and sacred violence<br /><br /><br /></div>Kumpulan LKP & Skripsihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05172596871595446578noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-823001563951046599.post-1564628162264912882008-06-19T02:47:00.000-07:002008-06-19T02:50:18.871-07:00ANALISIS EKONOMI PEMASARAN UDANG DALAM PROSPEK PEMBANGUNAN PERIKANAN DI ACHEH<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Abstrak</span><br />Objektif utama kajian adalah untuk mengenalpasti faktor-faktor yang mempengaruhi penawaran, permintaan udang tempatan, eksport dan harga udang tempatan di Acheh.
