                Be ready and change your preconceptions immediately, sportsrider fans, because Hyper Underbone have been taken to a new level. With the Thailand introduction of Suzuki's Satria F 150 cc this year and Honda's CBR 150 cc last year, the right motorcycle for the road racing taste rider, new striping image, as these twin-cylinder four-strokes are capable of stable cruising at highway speed which supported by 6 speed. The special thing is also four valve with system Borla. Both can accommodate a rider for a lengthy stay with high wild race taste, and their 75-inch wheelbases make them so big, they debunk that “cute” taste striping image yet still have a non-threatening appeal to riders and non-riders alike. What a real racing taste hyper underbone.

SYMBOLIC INTERACTIONISM

SYMBOLIC INTERACTIONISM APPLICATION INSIDE THE PASSAGE ENTITLED EGG  BY PUTU WIJAYA

INTRODUCTION

 Egg, as the title of the passage is really simple thing if we only think it physically. We have to know that egg itself has many great philosophy behind it. Egg is an element of this nature who has great purposes for our life. One more thing that the phisically composition of egg can give us many philosophy, we have to know that.
ANALYSIS
 In this case, we have to make an analysis about the passage entitled Egg by Putu Wijaya. But, at first we have to choose the one good theory to analyze this passage. In my opinion, we can use the only one theory to analyze this passage, we can use theory of Symbolics Interactionism. We have to know this theory based on Herbert Blumer. Symbolics Interactionism theory which written by Herbert Blumer in his famous book entitled ”Symbolic Interactionism; Perspective, and Method” that there are three assumption which covering the human act, they are:
1) Human being act toward things on the basic of the meaning that the things have for them;
2) The meaning of the things arises out of the social interaction one with one’s fellow;
3)The meaning of things are handled in and modified through an interpretative process used  
  by the person in dealing with the thing he encounters.
 Based on the passage entitled Egg by Putu Wijaya we can see the situation inside the passage itself. I think that the most suitable point is the first point of the theory above which same with everything happened inside the passage. But, the second and the third are also has a relationship with the passage and I just want to focused on the first point. 
 I will explain more simple the first point of theory above. It means that the human is do an act to some thing (it can be a thing, events, even phenomena) based on a meaning which owned by that thing, events, or that phenomena for them. Each people have a respond to the symbolic situation. They are respond to the environment, included also physical object (thing) and social object (human act or human behavior) based on the meaning which contain that component for them.  
 Before we talk too far about this thing, let’s we talk about about the composition of egg itself. I mean physically composition. I think it’s really simple if we observe or see to the shape of egg itself. It’s really simple logic I think, egg has some parts of its phisically. All of the parts are like the cover and the content. In the function, the cover has a function to protect the content of the egg. But, the sophisticated part of the egg is only contain in the inner part of the egg, inside the egg is the special part which called embryo, the cover protect the embryo of the egg. But, if we correlate it with our life it’s about philosopical of life. 
 I really think that egg has many philosophy behind it if we understand or interpreting based on statement of Putu Wijaya’s passage that “An egg is an embryo of life”. Even our president who lead our country right now was originated or exist in shape named embryo inside (kandungan ibu). All of creature in this nature was come from embrio before become the real creature who live in this world as the other usual creatures. Every people in this world there is no exception that they are all of people all over the world are origin from an embryo before become the real human like nowadays. Embryo is thing that can grow and grow which finally become new thing which can give purpose or function in our life.  
 Our mind inside our brain also we can said as embryo. The way of children think about something is really different with adult people. But, it doesn’t mean that children can’t make or own mind of something like adult people. The children has to pass so many-many process, all of that process can be got as fast as the growth of that children, so physically (body) and mind (brain) can grow together or (sejalan). When children has grow and become adult people, at that time we can said that their brain has the real function to give contribution, not only an organ of body but great investment which can earn new thing like invention, money, philosophy. Brain can earn everything, like Plato said that “Cogito Ergo Sum” which the meaning is “I think and I exist”. Ok, in this case we can know that brain is same with embryo inside egg which can grow and grow until finally earn new thing or something which has great purpose or function for our life. Inside the passage all people are asked to think, think, and think. Because at that period there is an crisis of think, people think creative, philosopically, and revolutianairy were less and less. The example is they just think about an egg phisically without correlate it with some philosophy inside it.  
 More and more about embryo, let’s we make an analogy between head and egg. Simple logic just said they are really different. But, if we can think more sophisticated and more detail about function they are same in phisically purpose. Inside egg there is an embryo and inside our head there is a brain. Embryo can grow physically and earn new thing or new creature who can give many purpose or function in our life. Brain also can grow physically but there is limitation of size and not hatch like embryo inside egg. Our brain can grow phisically until a limit of periodical age, from children brain become adult people brain. After that the brain can’t grow physically again, but what will grow after this kind of process? It’s the time for the mind or ability to think to grow up become better and better, our mind inside our brain is same with embryo which can grow and finally earn something, we think inside our brain and finally earn something like theory which can be functionable until whenever, solution to overcome a problem, even sophisticated problem. This passage by use an egg as the symbol wanted to let us think, think, and think. Because our mind can be great thing which can bring a change to the better condition for all of people all over the world, especially for all of people who were live at the period inside the passage.

****************************************************
This paragraph will bring the theory I used above in Indonesian language so that it can be easier to understood.
Di dalam bukunya yang amat terkenal, yaitu ”Symbolic Interactionism; Perspective, and Method,” Herbert Blumer menegaskan bahwa ada tiga asumsi yang mendasari tindakan manusia. Tiga asumsi tersebut adalah sebagai berikut:
1)Human being act toward things on the basic of the meaning that the things have for them;
2)The meaning of the things arises out of the social interaction one with one’s fellow;
3)The meaning of things are handled in and modified through an interpretative process used
  by the person in dealing with the thing he encounters.
Premis pertama sampai ketiga itu mempunyai pengertian seperti ini.Pertama, bahwa manusia itu bertindak terhadap sesuatu (apakah itu benda, kejadian, maupun fenomena tertentu) atas makna yang dimiliki oleh benda, kejadian, atau fenomena itu bagi mereka. Individu merespon suatu situasi simbolik. Mereka merespon lingkungan, termasuk objek fisik (benda) dan objek sosial (perilaku manusia) berdasarkan makna yang dikandung komponen tersebut bagi mereka.
 Kedua, makna tadi diberikan oleh manusia sebagai hasil interaksi dengan sesamanya. Jadi, makna tadi tidak inherent, tidak terlekat pada benda ataupun fenomenanya itu sendiri, melainkan tergantung pada orang-orang yang terlibat dalam interaksi itu. Makna dinegosiasikan melalui penggunaan bahasa. Negosiasi itu dimungkinkan karena manusia mampu menamai segala sesuatu, bukan hanya objek fisik, tindakan, atau peristiwa (bahkan tanpa kehadiran objek fisik, tindakan, atau peristiwa itu) namun juga gagasan yang abstrak. Akan tetapi, nama atau simbol yang digunakan untuk menandai objek, tindakan, peristiwa, atau gagasan itu bersifat arbitrer (sembarang). Melalui penggunaan simbol itulah manusia dapat berbagi pengalaman dan pengetahuan tentang dunia.
Ketiga, makna tadi ditangani dan dimodifikasi melalui proses interpretasi dalam rangka menghadapi fenomena tertentu lainnya. Makna yang diinterpretasikan individu dapat berubah dari waktu ke waktu, sejalan dengan perubahan situasi yang ditemukan dalam interaksi sosial. Perubahan interpretasi dimungkinkan karena individu dapat melakukan proses mental, yakni berkomunikasi dengan dirinya sendiri.  
Kesimpulan utama yang perlu diambil dari substansi teori interaksionisme simbolik adalah sebagai berikut. Kehidupan bermasyarakat itu terbentuk melalui proses komunikasi dan interaksi antarindividu dan antarkelompok dengan menggunakan simbol-simbol yang dipahami maknanya melalui proses belajar. Tindakan seseorang dalam proses interaksi itu bukan semata-mata merupakan suatu tanggapan yang bersifat langsung terhadap stimulus yang datang dari lingkungannya atau dari luar dirinya, melainkan dari hasil sebuah proses interpretasi terhadap stimulus. Jadi jelas, bahwa hal ini merupakan hasil proses belajar, dalam arti memahami simbol-simbol, dan saling menyesuaikan makna dari simbol-simbol tersebut. Meskipun norma-norma, nilai-nilai sosial dan makna dari simbol-simbol itu memberikan pembatasan terhadap tindakannya, namun dengan kemampuan berpikir yang dimilikinya, manusia mempunyai kebebasan untuk menentukan tindakan dan tujuan-tujuan yang hendak dicapainya.

“There is a ‘minding’process that interveness between stimulus and response. It is this mental process, and not simply the stimulus, that determines how a man will react (Ritzer, 1980:194)”

Which One Is Better

 Long time ago, there were two boys lived at a village. Their names were Abi and Abu. They were a neighbor in their life because their house were neighboring. Both of them came from a rich and big family. And their family was respected by social at the village.
 Abi was diligent and obedient boy in doing religion works. Beside that he also had a good attitude boy. He loved all of the people at the village. He honoured toward as the older man and respected to the younger man than him. So that, the occupant of the village were asthonised and prized for his goodness. 
 Like wise with Abu, he never ignored religion works even he more lived in the mosque than his house. He was very clever boy at the village and he often gave a speech when finished doing prayer. Unfortunately, by having the high knowledge Abu became an immoral boy. He always to be proud of his self that he was a cleverest boy and nobody might compete him. 
 One day, an older man came to the Abu’s house to asked a little money, but Abu was very angry. He snapped and kicked the man until the man fell down and cried because his knee was hurted by a small stones. Suddenly, Abi appeared and approach the man. Abi wake up him. Abi’s face looked very angry to see Abu’s character. He didn’t consider that Abu had an attitude so bad. Without saying anything, Abi took the man. 
 The people knew about it therefore they didn’t simpaty anymore to Abu although they knew that he was intellectual boy. According to them, the most important thing are politeness and good behavior must be saved as good as possible in the life because it was the most valuable thing. So that if we didn’t save relationship to the others people we would not get a happiness in this world.

FREEDOM WRITERS REVIEW

FreedomWriters is a movie which inspired by a true story and the diaries of real Long Beach teenagers after the LA riots, during the worst outbreak of interracial gang warfare. This movie was starring by two-time Academy Award winner Hilary Swank stars as Erin Gruwell.
She is a fresh-faced teacher and idealistic twenty-three-year-old is ready to take on the world as she steps inside Wilson High School for her first day of teaching in her special class. Her class, a diverse group of racially charged teenagers from different walks of life which consist of Americans, African Americans, Latinos, Asians, juvenile delinquents, gang members, and underprivileged students who came from poor neighborhoods. Hope for nothing more than to make it through the day. On the surface, the only thing they share is their hatred for each other and the understanding that they are simply being warehoused in the educational system until they are old enough to disappear. Despite her students' obstinate refusal to participate during class, Erin tries to apply various means to engage them on a daily basis. 
  But then ghetto reality steps in to focus the picture. A racially motivated gang shooting witnessed by a Latina gang member in Erin's class, and an an ugly racial cartoon that Erin intercepts during class, become the most unwittingly dynamic teaching aids. They spark a transformation in the classroom, compel them to listen and force her to take off her idealistic blinders and take in the kids' survival stories of their undeclared war on the streets. Erin begins to connect with them. She brings in music from the Hood, and literature from another kind of ghetto, The Diary of Anne Frank, and with these simple tools she opens her students' eyes to the experiences of those suffering intolerance throughout the world and the struggles of those outside their own communities. 
  Knowing that every one of her students has a story to tell, Erin encourages them to keep a daily journal of their thoughts and experiences. After sharing their stories with one another, the students see their shared experience for the first time and open up to the idea that there are possibilities in life outside of making it to the age of eighteen. Based on a true story, Freedom Writers is an inspirational tale and testimony to courage, hope and the human spirit's triumph over intolerance. As the students' diaries transform from schoolwork into life preservers, Gruwell's commitment to them grows and affects her in ways she did not imagine. This movie emphasized the meaning to every people to have more tolerance with other racial people all over the world. 

POSITIVE AND IMPORTANT VALUE OF THE MOVIE

1. At our life in this world we doesn’t live lonely, but we live with various racial people. That’s why we must show great respect each other. 
2. All of people who come from different racial all over the world has the same rights, the same position, the same duty, and the same degree. Noone racial group who stand in higher position and noone in lower position. That’s the most essential thing and I want to emphasize that thing.
3. The most essential principal thing is “UNITY IN DIVERSITY”.
4. God create us in different racial group is to fill and encomplete minus side in each racial even people daily life. (SALING MELENGKAPI DAN MENGISI KELEMAHAN SATU SAMA LAIN), not to kill and shoot each other. 
5. Don’t make racial thing as fireball to make a war or conflict between each racial group.
6. Difference and variety are very beautiful.
7. Enjoy your life and always make peace atmosphere with other racial people even racial group.
8. Peace is a beautiful thing which can make this world become colder and safer.
9. Always keep the good relation and the good atmosphere with other cross racial people.

The Stereotype
1. There are many opinion that Latino people is a group of minority people in America and they are always considered as slave group. But, in the reality Latino is very unique people in America and they have more bravery to fight through big problem of their life. 
2. Every people always have mind that there are some of racial group who must be minority group in a country and must be there upper group and lower group. But, if every people who came from different racial group can realized that they can live together with same degree in social environment. They can become one big family, one big unity, and one big power to solve many problems in their life together.  
   

BAD EFFECTS OF SMOKING FOR OUR HEALTHY

As we know that most of people all over the world, especially in Indonesia are like to smoking. They just smoke as many as cigarettes they can without give care to their body healthy. If they can realize optimally that smoking didn’t give positive effects to their body healthy, I am sure all of people all over the world will not smoking anymore. But, someone can’t get realize before they suffer the serious problem with their healthy body. In my opinion, there are many bad effects of smoking. 
 Firstly, it is a very expensive habit. Frequently, the price of cigarettes rises. Secondly, it is bad for the respiratory system. Smokers get colds which last for a long time. As well, they get bronchitis and pneumonia more easily than no-smokers. Thirdly, everyone knows that there is a connection between lung cancer and smoking. Finally, smoking gives you bad breath. Most non-smokers hate the smell of tobacco and they do not want to sit near someone who will puff smoke all over them.
 Well, that’s all of my opinion about bad effects of smoking for our lifestyle and our body healthy. In my opinion, the most important thing if you want to be free from smoking lifestyle, you must try to fight with needs of smoking of yourself. Don’t forget to do healthy life style.  

TREASURE ISLANDS ANALYSIS

Chapter II: Black Dog Appears and Disappears  
                      One January, a man arrives at the inn, asking about his friend named Billy. He means the old seaman, whom Jim still knows only as the captain. The captain is out for a walk, and when he returns, the stranger appears frightened. The captain identifies the stranger, who is missing two fingers from his hand, as Black Dog. They are old shipmates. They sit and talk, but soon quarrel, and Black Dog runs away. The captain calls for some rum. He appears to be wounded, and at that moment Dr. Livesey arrives. He says the captain has had a stroke, and treats him, telling him to stay off rum. 

TREASURE ISLANDS ANALYSIS

Chapter I: The Old Sea Dog at the "Admiral Benbow"  
                  Treasure Island is narrated by Jim Hawkins. The events take place in southwest England and the Caribbean at some unspecified time in the eighteenth century. Jim is a boy who lives with his parents at the Admiral Benbow inn, in southwest England, near the port city of Bristol. An old seaman takes up lodging at the inn. No one knows much about him. He drinks a lot of rum but does not speak much, and he seems wary. He tells Jim to look out for "the seafaring man with one leg," and let him know when the man appears. Some people are afraid of the man they know only as the captain, largely because of the seafaring stories he tells about hangings and walking the plank and other horrors. When Dr. Livesey, the family physician, comes to attend to Jim's dying father, he encounters the captain. They quarrel, and the captain draws a knife on the doctor. The doctor calmly faces him down.  

Hyper Underbone

                     Be ready and change your preconceptions immediately, sportsrider fans, because Hyper Underbone have been taken to a new level. With the Thailand introduction of Suzuki's Satria F 150 cc this year and Honda's CBR 150 cc last year, the right motorcycle for the road racing taste rider, new striping image, as these twin-cylinder four-strokes are capable of stable cruising at highway speed which supported by 6 speed. The special thing is also four valve with system Borla. Both can accommodate a rider for a lengthy stay with high wild race taste, and their 75-inch wheelbases make them so big, they debunk that “cute” taste striping image yet still have a non-threatening appeal to riders and non-riders alike. What a real racing taste hyper underbone.
