Company's ability to survive is a fundamental uncertainty faced in the preparation and auditing financial statements. Provision of going-concern opinion on these financial statements the company is still being debated. Public Accountant Professional Standards in section 341 states that the auditor is responsible for evaluating whether there is a major doubt on the ability of entities in the continued survival of the appropriate period of time, not more than one year from the date of the financial statements being audited. This research analyzed the financial and non financial factors that affected the provision of going-concern opinion. This research used samples of 63 companies with 315 observations, taken from years 2005-2009. The logistic regression analysis showed that the company's financial condition variables, mitigating evidence, and disclosure significantly influence the acceptance of going-concern opinion. Enterprise risk was not significant at propensity of going-concern opinion.

Indonesia sebagai negara dengan segala keanekaragamannya menuntut agar kaum muda lebih menghargai keragaman, meningkatkan kesadaran akan nilai-nilai kesatuan dalam kemajemukan. Pengajar/guru perlu memfasilitasi terjadinya perkembangan beberapa kemampuan yang dimiliki secara optimal. Untuk mewujudkan masyarakat yang dinamis peserta didik perlu dibekali pendidikan nilai yang menekankan pada pengembangan sikap peserta didik. Sikap (afektif) erat kaitannya dengan nilai yang dimiliki oleh seseorang. Oleh karenanya pendidikan sikap pada dasarnya adalah pendidikan nilai. Nilai, adalah suatu konsep yang berada dalam pikiran manusia yang sifat-sifatnya tersembunyi, tidak berada dalam dunia empiris. Nilai berhubungan dengan pandangan seseorang tentang baik dan buruk, layak dan tidak, dan pandangan seseorang tentang semua itu tidak bisa dirubah. Kita mungkin hanya dapat mengetahui dari prilaku yang bersangkutan. Oleh karenanya, nilai pada dasarnya adalah standar perilaku sesorang. Pendidikan nilai pada dasarnya proses penanaman perilaku kepada peserta didik yang diharapkan dapat berperilaku sesuai dengan pandangan yang dianggap baik dan tidak bertentangan dengan norma-norma yang berlaku.

The phenomenon of over education and under education is a phenomenon in which a labor force with higher education levels hold jobs that do not fit with the level of education. The opposite, someone with a lower educational level would occupy a higher job. This study uses data SUSENAS 2009 for the Province of West Sumatra. The research shows, there is the phenomenon of over education and under education in the female labor market in West Sumatra and there are significant income related to the phenomenon of over education and under education in the women of labor market. It is necessary to link and match between education and female labor market in the formal sector. The policy of labor exploitation through unfair wage system for workers needs to be done so that the phenomenon of over education and under education will have positive impact for companies and workers concerned.

Sulphur dioxide gas is one of most contaminating gas in the air. Sulphur gas can be produced by mining activities. Sulphur gas will be harmful if bond with CO2 to form as Sulphur Dioxide. To reduce the Sulphur Dioxide gas concentration we must inhibite the sulphur gas formation from mining activities. The inhibition of sulphur gas could be done by reduce the sulphate concentration in acid mine drainage. One of important factor that influencing the reduce of sulphate is COD/SO42- ratio. The effect of COD/SO42- ratio on bacterial growth and sulfate removal process can be investigated with anaerobic batch reactor. The laundry septic tank sediments were inoculated on an anaerobic batch reactor which were contacted with artificial coal acid mine water wastes with 1000 sulfate concentrations and 2000 mg SO42- /L. In an anaerobic batch reactor there are five reactors with variations of COD / SO42-1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 4.0, and 8.0 ratios. Efficiency ratio and the best sulfate removal rate is in reactor ratio 2.0 with value efficiency of 46.58% and a reduction rate of 29.128 mg / L.day in an anaerobic batch reactor. The efficiency of the removal rate decreased when the COD / SO42->2.0 ratio decreased. The fastest pH decline was in the COD/SO42-8.0 ratio variation in the anaerobic batch reactor and. The COD / SO42-ratio can help the sulfate reduction process in the optimum value by affecting the sulfate-reducing bacterial metabolism in the balance of the acceptor and the electron donor.

Several species of ants with different behavior have been found in cocoa plantations and their behavior is important to be considered because it might be correlated with the degree of protection of cocoa plant from cocoa pests. The aim of this research is to manipulate and to develop ants population in environment, so they are able to establish permanently in cocoa trees. This research was conducted in Papakaju Regions Luwu Regency in Juli to November 2009. In this study, 10 cocoa trees with ants were sampled (each species of ant in 10 cocoa trees). A control of 10 tree samples without ant was also taken. In order to assess the abundance of ant population, it was grouped based on scoring, which score 1 for less than 20 ants, score 2 for 21–50 ants, score 3 for 51–200 ants, score 4 for 201–1000 ants, and score 5 for more than 1000 per tree. The results indicated that average of population score of the three ants species reached the highest population for the Oecophylla. smaragdina with average score 4.85 (>1000 ants), Dolichoderus thoracicus, with average score 3.90 (> 200 ants) and Crematogaster. difformis with average score 3.10 (>200 ants). This research indicated that three species of ants, Oecophylla smaragdina (weaver ant), Dolichoderus thoracicus (cocoa black ant) and Crematogaster difformis (cracking ant). in farmer cocoa plantations in South Sulawesi giving better performance against major pests of cocoa in particular cocoa pod borer (CPB). Key words: Ant Population, Oecophylla smaragdina, Dolichoderus thoracicus, Crematogaster difformis, artificial nest, cocoa.

Identitas adalah isu sentral dalam perjalanan sebuah bangsa, tidak terkecuali bangsa Inggris. Dengan melihat perjalanan konstruksi identitas bangsa Inggris dari abad ke-18 th, tulisan ini mencoba memahami proses budaya yang membentuk identitas. Berbagai faktor internal dan eksternal mempengaruhi proses ini dan meyakin kan bahwa identitas bangsa Inggris sedang diperdebatkan. Berbagai makna seputar identitas Inggris juga dibahas untuk menunjukkan adanya negosiasi dalam proses pembentukan identitas. Pada akhir pembahasan dilihat bahwa identitas lebih bersifat majemuk namun masa depan Inggris sebagai sebuah komunitas imajiner, ketika semua elemen masyarakat merasa dihargai, memiliki kesempatan yang sama dalam mengaktualisasi diri dan menikmati persahabatan dalam semangat keberagaman, masih perlu dilihat kemudian.

The Latex Diagnosis (LD) is performed through the determination of dry rubber (DRC), sucrose (Suc), inorganic phosphorus (Pi) and thiol (RSH) contents. It is carried out through the colorimetric method using a single cuvette spectrophotometer, which is time-consuming and requires a high volume of chemicals. It also needs to be executed as soon as the samples are collected so that limits the adoption of LD. The adaptation of the protocol to a multiplate reader and suitable conservation aimed to overcome the limitations. The experiments were carried out at the Indonesian Rubber Research Institute, Sembawa, Palembang, and Research Center for Biotechnology, Universitas Gadjah Mada, Yogyakarta. Various combinations of solution volumes, adapted from standard protocol, were tested. The closest slope of the standard curve to control was then applied to 7 randomly selected trees. The result showed that for Suc, the composition of 10 µL samples, 30 µL of 2.5 % TCA and 210 µL anthrone reagent was suitable for determination using a multiplate reader. The combination of 40 µL of sample, 85 µL of 2.5 % TCA and 125 µL mL FeSO4 solution was suitable for Pi determination, while 100 µL samples, 5 µL DNTB and 100 µL Tris is recommended for RSH. The measurement using a multiplate reader resulted in comparable contents (average deviations were 1.83, 2.69 and 3.51 % for Suc, Pi, and RSH, respectively), lower time and chemicals consumptions, and a larger number of sample handling compared to single cuvette method. This study also tested the effect of freeze-drying for sample conservation. The result indicated that freezedrying was able to maintain the Pi level (deviation 0.93 %). However, it increased Suc (deviation 19.43 %) and decreased ascorbate (AsA) significantly (deviation 43.60 %); therefore, freeze-drying might not be suitable for conserving serum samples in the LD method.
