The bad effects of smoking for Passive Smokers

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 00:52:00 -0800

Assalamu'alaykuuum ... Hello world ... Welcome to my life. I hope you enjoy my little notes in this very simple blog. Well my lovely readers let me tell you about the effect of Cigarette smoke for Passive Smokers. Dear reader, do you know that after smoking the respiratory system will be impaired for twenty minutes. But this is still nothing than the influence on passive smokers.

What is Passive smokers? Passive smokers is a smoke-breathing of people who are smoking. The result is more dangerous than active smokers. Even the dangers of passive smoking to be borne triple jeopardy active smokers. Setyo Budiantoro of the Public Health Association of Indonesia (IAKMI) said, as many as 25 percent of harmful substances contained in cigarette smokers into the body, while 75 percent free air circulating inside your body at risk for those around him. The concentration of harmful substances in the body due to passive smoking more toxic smoke inhaled by active smokers are not filtered. While cigarette toxins in the body filtered through the end of the active smokers of cigarettes smoked. "However, the concentration of toxins active smokers could increase if active smokers inhale smoke again he exhales." Toxins produced by the largest cigarette smoke billowing from the tip of the cigarette is not inhaled. Because the smoke produced by the burning of tobacco that is not perfect. (http://id.wikipedia.org)

The study shows that peoples, who are exposed by cigarette smoke significantly, will narrow the airways. From the research a few experts in the world shows that passive smokers are exposed to Cigarette smoke on a regular basis, are at risk of memory impairment. Even passive smokers may experience memory loss nearly twenty percent more.

That's why smokers are encouraged to find it difficult to eliminate the habit of smoking, not to smoke in a public place or enclosed spaces. Avoid smoking in front of children, because in addition to causing respiratory problems, also causes damage to long-term memory.

Assalamu'alaykuuum ... Hello world ... Welcome to my life. I hope you enjoy my little notes in this very simple blog. Well this time I will tell you about the negative effects of excessive exercise conducted. Then, Happy reading guys....

In Indonesia, there events several artists who died after exhaustion exercise. According to medics, their deaths are caused by heart attacks. But basically this is triggered by fatigue after exertion for exercising.

Fatigue can cause heart damage. As we all know the heart is the most important organ in the human body. Heart rate beyond reasonable limits can cause a stroke. The reason, the coronary arteries are usually only works receive a normal blood flow, suddenly had to supply blood to the extra amount. This is because loud sports activities being carried out to make the muscles need more oxygen and nutrients. As a result, the heart works harder than usual.

Heart, exhausted from working too hard, dpat causes the muscles become weak and can not send electrical impulses properly. Abnormal heart rhythm due to electrical impulses that are sent incorrectly, can lead to a heart attack which would then result in death.

Therefore, dear reader, do the exercise according to their ability. Do not over-exert yourself if it is exhausted. Do not exercise on an ongoing basis, take frequent breaks if it felt it could no longer.

According to the myths that circulate temple was built with the help of magical creatures. Currently, the temple has become one of the must-visit tourist spot for both local and foreign tourists.

Mendut is not as big and grand as Borobudur temple , but older than Borobudur temple. In addition, Mendut also considered auspicious by some people. The temple is also located in Magelang, Central Java. This temple can be encountered when entering the Borobudur temple. Because it is near the location of the second temple. The temple is often visited by couples who have not been blessed with offspring, because there are Hariti releief which was then known as the Goddess of Fertility. Mendut functioned as a tourist, as well as Borobudur Temple. In addition, the temple is also used as a place for Waisak celebration, the ceremony held on May at the time of the full moon. Mendut suffered minor damage caused by an earthquake measuring 5.9 on the Richter scale that struck Yogyakarta in 2006.

Prambanan is the largest Hindu temple in Southeast Asia. The temple is located in the Special Region of Yogyakarta, Central Java. The temple is also often referred to as the Roro Jonggrang Temple and often referred to as a thousand temples. Called as such because the temple has a legend. A long ago there was a young man who was very powerful and the powerful who want to marry a beautiful princess named Roro Jonggrang. The king is also the father of the princess was forced to marry Bondowoso, Roro Jonggrang did not love him but can not resist. After going through the thought being that long, he finally gave one condition to Bondowoso to build 1000 temples and promised to marry him if terms could be completed before dawn. Roro Jonggrang requested that the work is completed before the cock crows he thought of as something that is impossible. But the magic Bondowoso nearly 999 temples can complete with the help of jinns and strength. Roro Jonggrang also asked the women in the village to start hitting the chicken rice that woke up and began to crow. Bondowoso very disappointed with the Roro Jonggrang, then transform her into rock, wich now known as Prambanan temple, while the temple in the vicinity called the Thousand Sewu or temple. Because of the beauty and complexity of the architecture, Prambanan recorded as World Heritage Site in 1991 by UNESCO. The temple is also the most popular tourist destination for local and foreign tourists when visiting Yogyakarta.

Assalamu'alaykuuum ... Hello world ... Welcome to my life. I hope you enjoy my little notes in this very simple blog. Well This time I will give you a little tip for dealing with stress. Stress often occurs in some people when under pressure, either assignments or office tasks, or maybe problems related to social life. Do not underestimate the stress problem all readers, because it has been many tragic events caused by stress. For instance, in my country, especially in the cities belonging to the big city, we often find crazy people (people who suffer from psychiatric disorders) due to stress, often because of the economy. Not only in my country, in other countries the impact of stress is not only a psychiatric disorder, but it can have an impact on mortality (suicide). That's why I want to give some tips to overcome them, which most of it I use when under stress. Well dear readers let’s check it out.

Identify the things that can trigger stress, and than do something about it. For example, if you get stress cause of the assignments, overcome it by improving time management and Don’t ever accumulate the task.
Share with others. Telling your problem with another person, such as a close friend , can reduce your load. Besides being heard, with telling, you will get insight to the solution you are looking for. Or at least, you can feel that the problem in not just yours, because you still have friends to share.
Imagine the wonderful memories. Remind the success that you achieve in the past. Keeping in mind the success that you've achieved, it could be a motivation for you to keep trying.
When you get a lot of tasks, remember to do small activity as a distraction.
Drink at least 8 glasses of water a day will help you to increase your ability to cope with stress.
A pile of big smile. A smile is the most powerful weapon to overcome the pressure. The smiles can calm our hearts so the anger does not control us, and helps us to think clearly.
And most important is remember that God never tested beyond exceets the ability of servant. Be assured that all problems there must be a way out.

The Farmer and His Buffalo

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Fri, 15 Feb 2013 18:34:00 -0800

Assalamu'alaykuuum ... Hello world ... Welcome to my life. I hope you enjoy my little notes in this very simple blog. Well my lovely readers let me tell you about a narrative story from Laos. Laos is a country located in southeast Asia. So please enjoy the story... ^_^

Once upon a time there was a farmer from Laos. This farmer is a farmer who was very diligent. He never lazy in his work. Every morning and evening, he plowed his fields by using his buffalo.

Until one day, a tiger, see the farmer working in the fields with his buffalo. The tiger was very surprised to see a large animal obedient in small animal. Tiger like to know more about the big animal and small animal. After the farmer's home, the tiger spoke to the buffalo, "You are so big and strong..Why do you do everything a guy tells you" and Buffalo said, "oh, he’s a very smart guy." Tiger asked, "can you tell me how smart he is? '. "No, I can not tell you", said the buffalo, "but you could ask him"

So the next day the tiger asked the farmer, "Can I see your intelligence?". But the farmer replied, "at home". "Can you go and get it?" Asked the tiger. "Yes," the farmer said, "but I'm afraid you'll kill my buffalo when I am gone. Can I tie you to a tree?"

After the farmer tied the tiger to a tree, he did not go home to get his intelligence. He took his plow and hit the tiger. Then he said, "Now you know about my intelligence even you have not seen it.

From the story we can see that whatever the status of a human being, when compared with animals, then humans will always win, because man is created to be accompanied by reason and thought.

I hope this article can give benefit to us all, especially me dedicate this paper specifically for children on a daily basis using the flip-flops in the activity. And then please enjoy it dear readers.

Dangers of Wearing flip-flops

1. No buffer (heels).

The ideal footwear is footwear that has support for the heel and arch of the foot. Flip-flops that have a flat shape, and do not have a buffer as well as high heels, are not good for health and comfort.

2. Back Pain

Because it has no support in the arch of the foot and heel, the flip-flops can lead to pain in the ankle and hip pain. And if left unchecked can lead to back pain.

3. Arthritis.

Arthritis is a form of joint disorder that involves inflammation of one or more joints. If it is too long to use flip-flops to flat position when running, it can lead to arthritis or joint pain.

4. Inviting bacteria in the foot.

If it is too often used flip flops all the time, in the open air, it can invite no less than 15,000 bacteria from sticking to the leg. especially during inclement weather, such as rain. And that would be detrimental to health.

5. The danger in driving time.

The habit of some people who do not pay attention to sandals to use when driving either a motorcycle or a car can result in a safety person. Moreover, if using flip-flops that are loose and thin. Flat surface that can cause slip and slip. Greatly endanger our safety.

So the conclusion is that the use of flip-flops that are too long is not good for health. Perhaps for readers who are used to wearing flip-flops to minimize its use so as not to cause problems to your health. So My Lovely Readers let us maintain our health. Thank you for reading this . ^ _ ^

Snow White

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Fri, 15 Feb 2013 05:28:00 -0800

A long time ago, a child was born to a queen and king and she was called Snow White. When the queen died, the king married again. This new queen was wicked and hated Snow white. The queen gave orders that Snow White was to be treated as a servant.

Snow White grew very beautiful and one day a Prince riding by, saw her at work and fell in love with her.

The queen was beautiful too, and every day she asked her Magic Mirror, "Who is the fairest in the land?" and the mirror always answered, "You are the fairest one of all". But one day the mirror answered Snow White was the fairest in the land, and in a rage the queen gave orders to one of her Huntsmen to take Snow White into the woods and kill her. The Huntsman had a kind heart and couldn't do the deed so told her to run away. She fled into the woods where Seven little dwarfs lived. Their house was small and strange.

Snow White entered the little house and finding it very untidy, started to clean up. Upstairs she found seven little beds. She was very tired and stretching out on one of the beds, was soon asleep. When the Dwarfs came home they were surprised to find Snow White and after some argument, decided to let her stay. She promised to cook and look after them.

The Queen discovered where Snow White was living and disguising herself as a witch, took a poisoned apple and set out for the Dwarfs cottage. She gave Snow White the poisoned apple to eat and as soon as she bit the apple, she sank into unconsciousness.

Thinking she was dead, the Dwarfs built a glass coffin and put her in it. For days she lay in the forest in her glass coffin. One day, the Prince was riding through the forest looking for Snow White and found her. He leaned over and kissed her. She opened her eyes and sat up with a smile. Everyone was happy. The Prince took Snow White to his palace where they were married and lived happily ever after.

The Legend Of Rawa Pening

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 13 Feb 2013 22:36:00 -0800

Once upon a time, there was a little poor boy came into a little village. He was very hungry and weak. He knocked at every door and asked for some food, but nobody cared about him. Nobody wanted to help the little boy.

Finally, a generous woman helped him. She gave him shelter and a meal. When the boy wanted to leave, this old woman gave him a “lesung”, a big wooden mortar for pounding rice. She reminded him, “please remember, if there is a flood you must save yourself. Use this “lesung” as a boat”. The “lesung” was happy and thanked the old woman.

The little boy continued his journey. While he was passing through the village, he saw many people gathering on the field. The boy came closer and saw a stick stuck in the ground. People challenged each other to pull out that stick. Everybody tried, but nobody succeeded. “Can I try?” asked the little boy. The crowd laughed mockingly. The boy wanted to try his luck so he stepped forward and pulled out the stick. He could do it very easily. Everybody was dumbfounded.

Suddenly, from the hole left by stick, water spouted out. It did not stop until it flooded the village. And no one was saved from the water except the little boy and the generous old woman who gave him shelter and meal. As she told him, he used the “lesung” as a boat and picked up the old woman. The whole village became a huge lake. It is now known as Rawa Pening Lake in Salatiga, Central Java, Indonesia.
