After 1500, when Old Javanese as a language ceased to be used in Java, Old Javanese literature continued to inspire eighteenth- and nineteenth-century literati.
During the first semester, after a short introduction to Old Javanese morphology and syntax, the students start to read selections from the Adiparwa and other literary prose texts of about 1000; at this stage, stress is laid on grammatical and lexical knowledge.
Old Javanese literary history and poetics form part of the course.

Girls of 12 years old were considered to be of the correct age to become wives.
The deeply ingrained fear that ‘something unfortunate’ might happen to the adolescent girl if she begins to interact with boys, or attracts the attention of boys is another driving factor to ensure that she finds herself a husband.
In many rural communities an unmarried fifteen-year-old girl is considered an old spinster and every attempt will be made to marry her off.

 2004 Kawasaki Z1000 - MotorcycleUSA.com
The powerful Yamaha FZ1 and Kawi ZRX1200 come real close, but the FZ is more of a big and fast sport-tourer than a nimble and nasty streetfighter, and the soft-around-the-edges ZRX has a little too much pork with its beans.
Kawi engineers began with its old ZX-9R and began stripping it down to just a Z. Gone is the 9R's full-coverage bodywork and aluminum frame.
If so, this is a bit surprising because the Kawi has a fast 32-bit ECU and its four stainless steel mufflers incorporate catalytic converters; California models use an additional honeycomb cat to reduce emissions ever further.
