This ninth-century Hindu temple complex, which since 1991 has been listed as a world heritage site, was a professional archaeological reconstruction. The method employed for the reconstruction was anastylosis,2 however, when it came to the roof top, a bit of fantasy was also employed.

The Dutch East Indies’ Archaeological Service – which never employed the term – developed this method in an Asian setting by trial and error (for the first time systematically at Candi Panataran in 1917-1918).

  • (Equatorial Spitting Cobra) Venom a P
    The Journal of Venomous Animals and Toxins including Tropical Diseases ISSN 1678-9199 | 2011 | volume 17 | issue 4 | pages 451-459 Biochemical and toxinological characterization of Naja sumatrana ER P (Equatorial spitting cobra) venom A P Yap MKK (1), Tan NH (1), Fung SY (1) RIGINAL O (1) Department of Molecular Medicine, Center for Natural Products and Drug Research (CENAR), Faculty of Medicine, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Abstract: The lethal and enzymatic activities of venom from Naja sumatrana (Equatorial spitting cobra) were determined and compared to venoms from three other Southeast Asian cobras (Naja sputatrix, Naja siamensis and Naja kaouthia). All four venoms exhibited the common characteristic enzymatic activities of Asiatic cobra venoms: low protease, phosphodiesterase, alkaline phosphomonoesterase and L-amino acid oxidase activities, moderately high acetylcholinesterase and hyaluronidase activities and high phospholipase A2. Fractionation of N. sumatrana venom by Resource® S cation exchange chromatography (GE Healthcare, USA) yielded nine major protein peaks, with all except the acidic protein peak being lethal to mice. Most of the protein peaks exhibit enzymatic activities, and L-amino acid oxidase, alkaline phosphomonoesterase, acetylcholinesterase, 5’-nucleotidase and hyaluronidase exist in multiple forms. Comparison of the Resource® S chromatograms of the four cobra venoms clearly indicates that the protein composition of N. sumatrana venom is distinct from venoms of the other two spitting cobras, N. sputatrix (Javan spitting cobra) and N. siamensis (Indochinese spitting cobra). The results support the revised systematics of the Asiatic cobra based on multivariate analysis of morphological characters. The three spitting cobra venoms exhibit two common features: the presence of basic, potentially pharmacologically active phospholipases A2 and a high content of polypeptide cardiotoxin, suggesting that the pathophysiological actions of the three spitting cobra venoms may be similar.

    Licensing Supervision by the Regional Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPID) of Banten Province For Local Private TVs Taufiqurokhman1, Evi Satispi2, Andriansyah3 {[email protected]} Universitas Prof.Dr. Moestopo (Beragama)1,3 Universitas Muhammadiyah Jakarta2 Abstract. Broadcasting licensing is a regulation of broadcasting and a decision stage of the state to provide an evaluation whether a broadcasting agency is eligible to be granted or eligible to continue the lease rights on frequency. The Regional Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (KPID) is an independent state institution in Indonesia established in each province serving as a regulator of broadcasting in every province in Indonesia. The license of Broadcasting is the right granted by KPID to broadcasters to conduct broadcasting. The results of the study said that in the level of requirements that must be met by local private television broadcasters to obtain IPP, KPID has performed its duties optimally. KPID is always proactive towards local private television broadcasting institutions especially in guiding to complete the necessary requirements so that local TV in Banten can meet the requirements required to manage IPP. However, in the implementation of its role related to the phases of acquisition of IPP, KPID has not played an optimal role in performing its duties and functions. This is because in broadcasting there is still a violation by local private TV in broadcasting concerning the content of broadcasting. In addition, in taking the policy, KPID is still intervened by the local government in the form of broadcast television broadcasting that is in accordance with local government requests. Keywords: KPID, Licensing, Broadcasting Operating License 1 Introduction The Program of Settlement and Broadcast Program Standards is designed based on the mandate of the Law of the Republic of Indonesia Number 32/2002 on Broadcasting of the Indonesian Broadcasting Commission (Komisi Penyiaran Indonesia).
