It can be a powerful strategy to introduce and popularize the offered product or service. Moreover, such a strategy can be learned and done easily with the suitable knowledge. However, only as small number of creative industries in Sukoharjo Regency has applied this marketing strategy. The actors in creative industries still use simple methods, such as verbal marketing, direct selling to the market and direct order from customers who come to the production site. Such methods make the products and services are only used by people around Sukoharjo. Limitations of the marketing area result in less optimal revenue. To solve some problems in the creative industries in Sukoharjo, the trainings on how to expand the marketing area through Internet or online, and the trainings of online advertising in the form of videography are required. Videography will provide the information about the offered products or services for the customer or prospect customers. The training was conducted in one of the creative industrial centre in Sukoharjo.

Prof. H. Soedharto,S.H., Tembalang - Semarang, Indonesia 50275 Corresponding author: [email protected] Manuscript received: April, 4, 2019; revised: September, 19, 2019; approved: January, 23, 2020; available online: July, 16, 2020 Abstract - Salatiga Groundwater Basin (SGB) is located in Java Island, Indonesia. Administratively, it covers Se- marang Regency, Salatiga City, and Boyolali Regency. Industry and community use groundwater to fulfil their daily need. Increasing number of deep wells that extract groundwater will cause some environmental problems, such as lowering groundwater level and subsidence at SGB. Thus, there is a need to assess the adverse impacts of groundwater abstraction. Risk assessment of groundwater vulnerability due to abstraction is the goal of this study. The research method was taking account of weighting of geological parameters, such as response characteristics of the aquifers, characteristics of aquifer storage, aquifer thickness, piezometric depth, and distance from the shoreline to conduct the groundwater vulnerability mapping. It was then overlaid on a map of regional spatial plan to develop the map of vulnerability risk due to abstraction. The groundwater vulnerability due to abstraction is categorized in the medium level. After being overlaid by the land use map, the risk of groundwater vulnerability due to abstraction is classified into three kinds, which are low, medium, and high.

  • Sore Throats: Causes and Cures
    Vinod K. Anand, MD, FACS Nose and Sinus Clinic Sore Throats: Causes and Cures What Causes A Sore Throat? Sore throat is one symptom of an array of different medical disorders. Infections cause the majority of sore throats, and these are the sore throats that are contagious (can be passed from one person to another). Infections are caused by either viruses (such as the "flu," the "common cold" or mononucleosis) or bacteria (such as "strep," mycoplasma or hemophilus). The most important difference between viruses and bacteria is that bacteria respond well to antibiotic treatment, but viruses do not. Viruses Most viral sore throats accompany the "flu" or a "cold." when a stuff-runny nose, sneezing, and generalized aches and pains accompany the sore throat, it is probably caused by one of the hundreds of known viruses. These are highly contagious and cause epidemics in a community, especially in the winter. The body cures itself of a viral infection by building antibodies that destroy the virus, a process that takes about a week. Sore throats accompany other viral infections such as measles, chicken pox, whooping cough, and croup. Canker sores and fever blisters in the throat also can be very painful. One special viral infection takes much longer than a week to be cured: infectious mononucleosis or "mono." This virus lodges in the lymph system, causing massive enlargement of the tonsils (with white patches on their surface) and swollen glands in the neck, armpits and groin. it creates a severely sore throat, sometimes causes serious difficulties breathing, and can affect the liver, leading to jaundice (yellow skin and eyes).

SINUSITIS AS A CAUSE OF TONSILLITIS. BY BEDFORD RUSSELL, F.R.C.S., Surgeon-in-Charge, Throat Departmentt, St. Bart's Hospital. ALTHOUGH the existence of sinus-infection has long since been recognized, medical men whose work lies chiefly in the treatment of disease in the nose, throat and ear are frequently struck with the number of cases of sinusitis which have escaped recognition,copyright. even in the presence of symptoms and signs which should have given rise at least to suspicion of such disease. The explanation of the failure to recognize any but the most mlianifest cases of sinusitis lies, 1 think, in the extreme youth of this branch of medicine; for although operations upon the nose were undoubtedly performed thousands of years ago, it was not uintil the adoption of cocaine about forty years ago that it was even to examine the nasal cavities really critically.
