This paper was written to read visual signs and verbal marks contained in the cartoon Sompret by I Wayan Sadha. I Wayan Sadha's Sompret cartoon has its uniqueness as a work of visual communication. The uniqueness is that the visual communication of this cartoon presents illustrations, typography, and layouts with a deep appreciation of Balinese culture. The illustration presents a Balinese wearing a headdress is a representation of a Balinese in traditional culture. The illustration of a Balinese without a headdress is a representation of a Balinese who is in the modern culture. The typography used utilizes the display font to present the conversation and clarify the description of the image. The letters are used to explain the issue raised as Sadha's opinion and point of view on the Bali issues. Sadha's Sompret Cartoons only use lines, no color, so his works appeared as black and white cartoons. Sompret cartoons used the symmetrical balance composition and hidden balance layout, the perspective of human eye level, and the perspective of a bird's eye. This research uses descriptive qualitative research method. Semiotic theory is used in this research and focus on denotation and connotation meaning. Denotationally, the Sompret cartoon of Sadha presents a narrative of events based on the issue raised related to Balinese traditional culture and the flow of globalization. The work is created in a one-panel cartoon. The story of this cartoon sometimes with conversations of several characters or only illustrations of the characters without any conversation. With the narrative being built, the meaning of the connotation can be read. The connotations meaning of Sompret cartoons as opinion cartoons is showing the flow of globalization or modern culture in the middle of the strength of the Balinese traditional culture. Connotatively this cartoon can be read as a development of globalization in Bali.

Photoelectron microscopy is as old as electron microscopy itself. Electrons liberated from the object surface by photons are utilized to form an image that is a map of the object's emissivity. This physical property is a function of many parameters, some depending on the physical features of the objects and others on the conditions of the instrument rendering the image.The electron-optical situation is tricky, since the lateral resolution increases with the electric field strength at the object's surface. This, in turn, leads to small distances between the electrodes, restricting the photon flux that should be high for the sake of resolution.The electron-optical development came to fruition in the sixties. Figure 1a shows a typical photoelectron image of a polycrystalline tantalum sample irradiated by the UV light of a high-pressure mercury lamp.

Predominantly non-etiological conceptions have dominated the field of mental retardation (MR) since the discovery of the genetic etiology of Down syndrome (DS) in the sixties. However, contemporary approaches are becoming more etiologically oriented. Important differences across MR syndromes of genetic origin are being documented, particularly in the cognition and language domains, differences not explicable in terms of psychometric level, motivation, or other dimensions. This paper highlights the major difficulties observed in the oral language development of individuals with genetic syndromes of mental retardation. The extent of inter- and within-syndrome variability are evaluated. Possible brain underpinnings of the behavioural differences are envisaged. Cases of atypically favourable language development in MR individuals are also summarized and explanatory variables discussed. It is suggested that differences in brain architectures, originating in neurological development and having genetic origins, may largely explain the syndromic as well as the individual within-syndrome variability documented. Lastly, the major implications of the above points for current debates about modularity and developmental connectionism are spelt out.
