At the stage of providing data, observation and interview methods were used to find the translated works of IGB Sugriwa. Furthermore, IGB Sugriwa's translations were classified according to genre and Kakawin Rāmatantra was analyzed to find the translation model developed by IGB Sugriwa.

Translated works are included in literature such as Kakawin Dharma Shunya (1954), Kakawin Sutasoma (1956), Bharata Yuddha (1958), Kakawin Ramayana (1960), Kakawin Arjuna Wiwaha (1961) and Kakawin Rāmatantra(t.t). Meanwhile, the translation works included in the speech are Sang Hyang Kamahayanikan (1957) and Sarasamuccaya (1967). Meanwhile, IGB Sugriwa was also quite productive in translating texts related to traditional Balinese historiography across clans such as the Babad Pasek (1957), Babad Blahbatuh (1958), Dwijendra Tattwa (1967), Babad Pasek Kayu Selem (tt), and the Pande Inscription.

What does it mean?” comes a question.It means that the they “never go to a barber or beauty salon”. If they do, their “hairy” styles would be different; curly, bald, short hair, and re-bonding as well,” replies I Putu Tawah Matah (Just Talk Without Thinking).Everyone laughs. They realize that that kind of comment always comes when a question is asked to crazy people like I Putu.“It’s a sign for us. Perhaps we should carry out bigger rituals, or we might have done something wrong that make the gods angry,” comments I Made Tirtayatra Miratdana (Pilgrimage Funded By ‘Dirty’ Money).Everyone seems to know everything about the gods’ minds: when there is a volcanic eruption, or a tsunami, or a caterpillar plague, they say the gods are angry. They think that the gods have no other job other than creating disasters.“The way you think is similar to the Legislative Assembly members who say the caterpillar epidemic is a “warning” from God. If God likes creating disasters, the first target should have been them as they never listen to the people. They keep wanting to build a new huge hotel-like office for themselves when most of Indonesian are still living in poverty,” says I Wayan Bungut Lengut (Sweet Talk).“If the gods created natural disasters — volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, rabies or caterpillar epidemics — every time they got angry, what would they do when they were happy? Distribute gold, money, rice or Supermi noodles?”“As to date we have never seen things like that, it means that we still have to work hard to survive, or you have to buy your own supermi if you want. The conclusion is the gods have nothing to do with natural disasters,” concludes I Wayan.Everyone nods. They don’t like people who say the gods are often angry or create natural disasters.“Our gods (bhetara) are easy, they do not like swearing at their followers: when a river delta in Kuta was claimed and filled in by an investor, or when a temple’s property is rented out for villas, or when temples are changed to tourist attractions, or when ceremonies and rituals become business-oriented ……….. our gods never complain”It seems our gods know well that humans are smart and know what they are doing.“We are born to think: that’s why we have to use our brains, and not always blame our gods every time we have a problem or a disaster. Otherwise, it’s no use the gods giving us brain.”“So hairy caterpillar epidemic has nothing to do with the gods.”“I would think that this epidemic has been caused by extinction of birds and ants (less and less predators that prey on hairy caterpillars). Or the hairy caterpillar might not be aware of “family planning”; and as it has been raining recently, they breed very fast,” says I Wayan.Were the caterpillars be human, they would know KB (Family Planning program), and how expensive education and health insurance is, there were bills to pay, hence they would think twice before breeding; knowing how expensive life is.“Well, no matter how bad the hairy caterpillar epidemic is, don’t they know that caterpillars will turn into beautiful butterflies or produce expensive silk.“No matter how destructive the caterpillars are, they are much better than bad people. Bad people never turn into good ones or produce good things. Instead, they just turn into a bunch of hypocrites who they pretend to know everything about the gods or act in the name of the gods.t the gods or act in the name of the gods.)

In the application of the otonomy, local community has an opportunity to preserve their social cultural values as their identity of their community. Balinese can basically be recognised by their language (phonic form) they use as well as their traditions (physical forms) they practice. These aspects are commonly used as a symbol of identity by the Balinese ethnic community nationally and internationally. This symbol needs to be maintained for the shake of the Balinese community preservation. The purpose of this study is to explain the position of Balinese Language in the global era as a symbol of identity for the community. The study focuses on the description of the Balinese identity related to the Balinese language. One function of language is as symbol of identity. Balinese has this role for its community and it is also a pride. This condition can be proven by the development of the use of the Balinese language in time.

Thomas Wright + (Water plays an important role in Balinese … Water plays an important role in Balinese society. Not only is it commonly featured in Balinese Hindu rituals, but its use and management also enables prosperity through rice cultivation. While these aspects of water have been discussed in many academic and non-academic publications, qualitative understandings of relations to seawater remain somewhat unexplored in the literature. The aim of this paper is to present a preliminary review of existing literature on water and marine environments in Bali, and argue the need for further qualitative social scientific understanding of contemporary Balinese relations to seawater. A discussion of existing research on ocean-centred communities and continued tourism development in Bali’s coastal areas is intended to add to current research in Balinese studies. By presenting literature on Balinese concepts of environment, water and the ocean, this paper seeks to highlight the benefits of continued research on perceptions of environment to discussions of pollution, water scarcity and resource management. Although maritime attractions such as the temples at Tanah Lot and Uluwatu as well as several popular beach communities play a significant role in the tourism industry, this paper suggests the need to further investigate the importance of these attractions to tourists and Balinese as well as the social interpretations associated with them.cial interpretations associated with them.)

These facts have highlighted open problem to prolong the lifetime of sensor nodes while still maintaining the functional roles of WSN in reporting important events to a base station. These papers propose an approach for WSN inspired by the concept of immunity-based system where a set of reactions is performed in the appearance of nonself substances called syndromes. The notion of reactive cluster is introduced where only sensor nodes affected by the syndrome appearances need to perform reactions by establishing clusters among them. Since communication costs significant energy, each sensor nodes as an immune cell need to reduce impacts of the syndromes for itself and other sensor nodes in the routing paths to the sink node. It is done establishing adaptive data aggregation strategies. Depend on the critical level of the corresponding syndrome and error of wireless communications that may occur, the length of the aggregation window is adjusted.

Macro photography is all about showcasing a subject larger than it is in real life — an extreme close-up of something small. A full-frame insect in a five-by-seven-inch photo and a four-inch product shot of a cornflake go well above life-size: both are examples of macro photography. - both are examples of macro photography. -)
