Jual Beli Domain dan Website ( Portal)

2011-11-04T14:47:00.001+07:00

apasih domain itu?
Nama domain (domain name) adalah nama unik yang diberikan untuk mengidentifikasi nama server komputer seperti web server atau email server di jaringan komputer ataupun internet. Nama domain berfungsi untuk mempermudah pengguna di internet pada saat melakukan akses ke server, selain juga dipakai untuk mengingat nama server yang dikunjungi tanpa harus mengenal deretan angka yang rumit yang dikenal sebagai alamat IP. Nama domain ini juga dikenal sebagai sebuah kesatuan dari sebuah situs web seperti contohnya "wikipedia.org". Nama domain kadang-kadang disebut pula dengan istilah URL, atau alamat website.
Pada awalnya nama domain hanya dapat dituliskan dengan ke-26 abjad Latin, namun saat ini telah dimungkinkan untuk menggunakan abjad asing dengan Internasionalisasi nama domain.
Sistem nama domain (DNS) adalah aturan yang dipakai dalam sistem penamaan dari nama domain ini.

Pada mau buat domain? kalau pengen buat domain temen2 bisa pake google keyword untuk mencari keyword untuk domain yang bagus(dengan CPC yang mahal pastinya). Nah mungkin sedikit butuh usaha buat temen-temen meningkatkan traffic
kalau butuh domain yang bisa langsung rame, maka temen2 bisa jual beli domain tersebut, salah satu contoh nya adalah pasardomain.com atau di adsense-id.com

Bagi penjual domain, yang bingung menentukan berapa harga domainya, bisa pake web http://www.zippozap.com untuk menentukan berapa kira2 harga domain yang cocok buat domain anda..belum termasuk hostingnya tap..saat ini saya pun sedang mengusahakan web hand-phones.com untuk bisa dijual dengan harga mahal

[ Tips ] Cara Menaikan Page Rank Alexa

2011-10-19T16:31:00.004+07:00

Alexa merupakan situs yang memberikan peringkat kepada website - website di dunia, Alexa saat ini merupakan indikator yang banyak di pakai untuk menentukan harga sebuah domain. Semakin kecil nlai alexa maka semakin tinggi nilai jual suatu domain dibanding dengan nilai alexa yang rendah.

Bagaimanakah cara alexa bekerja? alexa akan mendeteksi seorang pengunjung melalui Alexa toolbar . Alexa toolbar merupakan add-on pada browser visitor. jadi seseorang yang menginstall alexa toolbar dikomputernya dan mengunjungi suatu situs, maka alexa akan mencatat kejadian ini, mulai dari search query (keyword) maupun berapa kali anda mengunjungi web tersebut.

Bagi blogger pasti menginginkan nilai alexa yang kecil, beda dengan google (semakin besar peringkatnya maka semakin bagus).

Lalu bagaimanakah tips untuk mengurangi nilai alexa tersebut? anda bisa menggunakan alexa widget, jadi dengan alexa widget maka alexa widget akan bekerja seperti alexa toolbar. setiap visitor yang masuk akan dicatat oleh alexa widget ini. dan jangan lupa untuk sering - seringlah reload situs anda

Teknologi IC

2011-10-07T16:51:00.002+07:00

IC apa sih IC?
berdasarkan wikipedia

Sirkuit terpadu (bahasa Inggris: integrated circuit atau IC) adalah komponen dasar yang terdiri dari resistor, transistor dan lain-lain. IC adalah komponen yang dipakai sebagai otak peralatan elektronika.

Pada komputer, IC yang dipakai adalah mikroprosesor. Dalam sebuah mikroprosesor Intel Pentium 4 dengan ferkuensi 1,8 trilyun getaran per detik terdapat 16 juta transistor, belum termasuk komponen lain. Fabrikasi yang dipakai oleh mikroprosesor adalah 60nm.

Sirkuit terpadu dimungkinkan oleh teknologi pertengahan abad ke-20 dalam fabrikasi alat semikonduktor dan penemuan eksperimen yang menunjukkan bahwa alat semikonduktor dapat melakukan fungsi yang dilakukan oleh tabung vakum. Pengintegrasian transistor kecil yang banyak jumlahnya ke dalam sebuah chip yang kecil merupakan peningkatan yang sangat besar bagi perakitan tube-vakum sebesar-jari. Ukuran IC yang kecil, tepercaya, kecepatan "switch", konsumsi listrik rendah, produksi massal, dan kemudahan dalam menambahkan jumlahnya dengan cepat menyingkirkan tabung vakum.

Dimana kita bisa Belajar IC.?
Kalau kalian kuliah di Teknik Elektro kalian pasti akan mendapatkan mata kuliah Teknologi IC, ilmu yang didapat dimata kuliah ini bukan hanya kalian bisa merancang IC, tapi kalian akan tahu karakteristik sebuah IC.
Namun jika kita tidak kuliah dielektro, apa kita ga mendapatkan ilmu tentang IC? Sekali lagi internet berperan aktif dalam mencerdaskan bangsa dimana tutorial tentang IC banyak sekali di internet sebagai contoh website yang menyediakan tentang tutorial IC adalah cmosedu.com diweb ini kita akan diberikan tutorial berupa teks, video dan sample sample sebuah project pembuatan IC sederhana. jika anda mengikuti tutorial dalam bentuk video dengan teliti, saya yakin anda pasti bisa membuat sebuah design IC.

Lalu bagaimana cara membuat IC?
Untuk memproduksi IC tidaklah mudah dan tidak semua negara memiliki pabrik pembuatan IC. bahkan untuk pabrik - pabrik tersebut memiliki tingkat kebersihan yang berbeda - beda. dimana tingkat kebersihan berdasarkan jumlah partikel debu. Pabrik IC Taiwan/China merupakan pabrik yang memiliki Jumalah partikel debu terbanyak sehingga harganya lebih murah dibanding dengan pabrik - pabrik dengan jumlah partikel debu nya yang sedikit. dan untuk memproduksinya haruslah produksi massal yaitu harganya sekitar 100 Juta rupiah. tapi hal ini jangan sampai membuat kita putus asa karena tidak mungkin bisa memproduksi IC. siapa tahu anda merupakan orang yang dapat mendesign IC atau prosesor kemudian di jual design tersebut dengan Harga yang Mahal.

maka dari itu saya mengajak teman - teman untuk belajar IC. dan mari kita sama - sama berdoa di Indonesia disediakan pabrik pembuatan IC ini sehingga mahasiswa indonesia dapat menyalurkan kreativitasnya. karena saya yakin mahasiswa dan teman - teman seindonesia merupakan orang - orang yang Kreativ..

Toko yang menjual istri (renungan story) -By Kaskus TS

2011-10-03T13:28:00.001+07:00

Toko yang menjual istri, baru saja dibuka di sebuah kota . Di sana , laki2 dapat memilih istri.

Di antara instruksi-instruksi yang ada di pintu masuk terdapat instruksi yang menunjukkan bagaimana aturan main untuk masuk toko tersebut.

“Kamu hanya dapat mengunjungi toko ini SATU KALI”

Toko tersebut terdiri dari 6 lantai dimana setiap lantai akan menunjukkan sebuah calon kelompok istri. Semakin tinggi lantainya, semakin tinggi pula nilai wanita tersebut.

Bagaimanapun, ini adalah semacam jebakan. Kamu dapat memilih wanita di lantai tertentu atau lebih memilih ke lantai berikutnya tetapi dengan syarat tidak bisa turun ke lantai sebelumnya kecuali untuk keluar dari toko.

Lalu, seorang laki2 pun pergi ke toko “istri” tersebut untuk mencari istri…
Di lantai 1 terdapat tulisan seperti ini :
Lantai 1 : wanita di lantai ini memiliki pekerjaan dan taat pada Tuhan.
laki2 itu tersenyum,kemudian dia naik ke lantai selanjutnya.

Di lantai 2 terdapat tulisan seperti ini :
Lantai 2 : wanita di lantai ini memiliki pekerjaan, taat pada Tuhan, dan senang anak kecil. Kembali laki2 itu naik ke lantai selanjutnya.

Di lantai 3 terdapat tulisan seperti ini :
Lantai 3 : wanita di lantai ini memiliki pekerjaan, taat pada Tuhan, senang anak kecil dan cantik banget.
” Wow”, tetapi pikirannya masih penasaran dan terus naik.

Lalu sampailah laki2 itu di lantai 4 dan terdapat tulisan Lantai 4 :
wanita di lantai ini yang memiliki pekerjaan, taat pada Tuhan, senang anak kecil, cantik banget dan suka membantu pekerjaan rumah.
”Ya ampun !” Dia berseru, ”Aku hampir tak percaya”

Dan dia tetap melanjutkan ke lantai 5 dan terdapat tulisan seperti ini :
Lantai 5 : wanita di lantai ini memiliki pekerjaan, taat pada Tuhan, senang anak kecil,cantik banget,suka membantu pekerjaan rumah, dan memiliki rasa romantis.

Dia tergoda untuk berhenti tapi kemudian dia
melangkah kembali ke lantai 6 dan terdapat tulisan seperti ini :
Lantai 6 : Anda adalah pengunjung yang ke 4.363.012.000. Tidak ada wanita di lantai ini. Lantai ini hanya semata-mata bukti untuk Anda yang tidak pernah puas. Terima kasih telah berbelanja di toko “istri”. Hati-hati ketika keluar toko dan semoga hari yang indah buat Anda.

Pesan moral ini bkn cm utk pria tp jg wanita: “Tetaplah slalu merasa puas akan pasangan yg sudah Tuhan sediakan. Jgn terus mencari yg terbaik tp jadikanlah yg baik yg ada dr yg sudah Tuhan sediakan, itulah pasangan yg terbaik bagi kamu seumur hidupmu hingga maut memisahkan.

Google Kafein untuk memprioritaskan konten website segar

2011-08-15T16:38:00.000+07:00

Sebagai pencari raksasa Google bersiap untuk menggelar Kafein - perubahan algoritmik berfokus pada lebih real-time hasil pencarian dan menggabungkan jaringan sosial seperti Facebook, MySpace dan Twitter - desainer web sedang didesak untuk membayar lebih banyak perhatian daripada sebelumnya untuk masuknya biasa, unik konten di situs mereka.

Konsekuensi untuk website kurang konten segar, seperti yang disediakan melalui feed berita atau update reguler lainnya, akan penurunan peringkat pencarian, mesin pencari optimasi (SEO) ahli memperingatkan.
Sementara tanggal rilis resmi untuk Kafein belum dikonfirmasi, pencarian Google kualitas spesialis Matt Cutts telah menyarankan itu akan mulai berfungsi bulan ini. Dalam kasus apapun, pengguna web tidak mungkin untuk melihat upgrade bawah-kap-tapi akan mengalami peningkatan kecepatan pencarian, terutama ketika datang untuk foto dan meng-upload video kecepatan.
Halaman web yang lebih tua kemungkinan akan bergerak lebih bawah peringkat sebagai mesin pencari mengalokasikan menonjol yang lebih besar untuk berita dan informasi real-time seperti update media sosial dan video online.
Perubahan lain diatur untuk dipantau oleh para analis SEO adalah perbedaan dalam hasil ekor panjang permintaan pencarian dalam kontras dengan mereka yang menampilkan istilah generik, dengan yang terakhir lebih mungkin untuk menghasilkan hasil real-time tersebut.

Panda google untuk mempromosikan konten berkualitas

2011-08-15T16:33:00.000+07:00

Alat peringkat terbaru Google adalah diatur untuk menyorot konten berkualitas tinggi atas situs yang lebih rendah yang mengandalkan terlalu banyak pada optimasi mesin pencari (SEO), telah muncul.

Diluncurkan minggu ini, Google Panda akan menempatkan kurang fokus di situs yang memasukkan kata kunci sebanyak mungkin, ketimbang memberikan jurnalisme berkualitas.
Diperkirakan bahwa sistem bahkan dapat menyebabkan penurunan paywalls, karena akan menyoroti situs berita yang bebas untuk dilihat online.

Namun, analisis Web Searchmetrics perusahaan telah menemukan bahwa sejumlah pejabat tinggi yang sebelumnya situs telah menderita sebagai akibat dari aplikasi baru.
Menurut temuan kelompok, situs perbandingan harga di antara mereka telah terpukul oleh Google Panda dalam hal peringkat.
CEO Searchmetrics Horst mengatakan kepada The Inquirer Joepen bahwa beberapa situs telah melihat visibilitas online mereka turun sebanyak 98 persen karena sistem baru diterapkan.
Mr Joepen mengatakan bahwa "tekanan pada industri [penerbitan] adalah untuk menghindari kata kunci SEO", tetapi menambahkan bahwa Google mungkin perlu untuk memantau strategi yang berpotensi merusak sejumlah situs terkemuka.

Bagaimana Hacker Bekerja

2011-08-04T16:04:00.000+07:00

dia, kata "hacker" telah mendapat reputasi buruk. Kata panggilan sampai pikiran berbahaya komputer pengguna menemukan cara baru untuk melecehkan orang, menipu perusahaan, mencuri informasi dan bahkan mungkin menghancurkan perekonomian atau mulai perang dengan infiltrasi sistem komputer militer. Meskipun tidak ada menyangkal bahwa ada hacker di luar sana dengan niat buruk, mereka membuat hanya sebagian kecil dari komunitas hacker. Hacker istilah komputer pertama kali muncul pada pertengahan 1960-an. Seorang hacker adalah seorang programmer - seseorang yang hack keluar kode komputer. Hacker visioner yang bisa melihat cara baru untuk menggunakan komputer, membuat program yang tidak ada orang lain yang bisa hamil. Mereka adalah pelopor industri komputer, bangunan mulai dari aplikasi kecil untuk sistem operasi. Dalam pengertian ini, orang-orang seperti Bill Gates, Steve Jobs dan Steve Wozniak semua hacker - mereka melihat potensi apa yang komputer bisa melakukan dan menciptakan cara-cara untuk mencapai potensi itu.

Sebuah sifat pemersatu antara hacker adalah rasa penasaran yang kuat, terkadang berbatasan obsesi. Hacker ini membanggakan diri tidak hanya kemampuan mereka untuk menciptakan program-program baru, tetapi juga untuk belajar bagaimana program-program lain dan sistem bekerja. Ketika program memiliki bug - Bagian dari kode buruk yang mencegah program dari bekerja dengan benar - hacker sering membuat dan mendistribusikan bagian kecil kode yang disebut patch untuk memperbaiki masalah. Beberapa berhasil mendapatkan pekerjaan yang leveraged keterampilan mereka, mendapatkan bayaran untuk apa yang mereka dengan senang hati akan lakukan untuk gratis.
Sebagai komputer berevolusi, insinyur komputer mulai mesin individu bersama-sama jaringan ke dalam sistem. Segera, istilah hacker memiliki makna baru - orang yang menggunakan komputer untuk mengeksplorasi jaringan yang ia tidak termasuk. Biasanya hacker tidak memiliki niat jahat. Mereka hanya ingin tahu bagaimana jaringan komputer bekerja dan melihat ada penghalang antara mereka dan pengetahuan itu sebagai tantangan.

- Pada kenyataannya, itu masih terjadi saat ini. Meskipun ada banyak cerita tentang hacker jahat menyabotase sistem komputer, infiltrasi jaringan dan menyebarkan virus komputer, Hacker kebanyakan hanya ingin tahu - mereka ingin tahu semua seluk-beluk dunia komputer. Beberapa menggunakan pengetahuan mereka untuk membantu perusahaan dan pemerintah membangun langkah-langkah keamanan yang lebih baik. Orang lain mungkin menggunakan ketrampilan mereka untuk usaha yang lebih tidak etis.

Pada artikel ini, kita akan mengeksplorasi teknik umum digunakan hacker untuk menyusup sistem. Kami akan memeriksa budaya hacker dan berbagai jenis hacker serta belajar tentang hacker terkenal, beberapa di antaranya telah bertabrakan dengan hukum.
Pada bagian berikutnya, kita akan melihat trik hacker 'perdagangan.

Asal Muasal Kebudayaan Pulau Jawa dan India

2011-07-21T14:53:00.000+07:00

Dahulu kala, saya pernah membaca sebuah buku yang sangat bagus tentang sejarah pulau didunia ini. dimana sejarah tersebut mengenai benua gondwana. dan pangea

Pada zaman ratusan ribu tahun yang lalu bahkan jutaan. benua didunia ini tidak seperti benua yang saat ini ada dimana terdapat benua asia, afrika amerika australia. tetapi ada sesuatu benua yang disebut benua gondwana.

nah katanya eh katanya pulau india itu masih terhubung dengan pulau jawa. hanya dipisahkan oleh sungai saja namun masih ada beberapa bagian yang masih terhubung.

oleh karena itu kebudayaan antara india dengan kebudayaan Jawa nyaris sama. sebagai contoh agama nenek moyang orang jawa adalah agama hindu.udah gitu beberapa kisah2 legenda ada yang sama.sebagai contoh kisah mahabarata alias arjuna alias pandawa. diindonesia pun memiliki kisah yang sama.
itu semua masih katanya.

Pelarangan Adzan Oleh Ziones Israel

2011-07-10T15:33:00.000+07:00

Tentara Zionis israel pada bulan juli lalu dikabarkan melakukan pelarangan azan di mesjidil Haram Ibrahimi di kota al-Khalil. Ketua Lembaga Wakaf al-Khalil, Zaid al-Ja'fari melaporkan bahwa zionis israel ini melarang karena azan hanya membuat berisik.

Al-Ja'fari mengecam aksi rezim Zionis itu dan menilainya sebagai pelanggaran terhadap agama langit dan asal kebebasan beribadah yang diakui dalam ketentuan internasional.

Pejabat Tepi Barat Sungai Jordan itu menegaskan bahwa para pejabat rezim Zionis Israel sengaja melarang pengumandangan azan tersebut dengan tujuan untuk menguasai seluruh bagian Haram Ibrahimi.

Ditegaskannya bahwa segala masalah yang berkaitan dengan Haram Ibrahimi adalah urusan dalam negeri Palestina dan rezim Zionis Israel tidak berhak campur tangan dalam hal ini.

Salah satu gaya hidup yang membuat saya berdecak kagum adalah gaya hidup Jepang.

2011-07-09T12:51:00.000+07:00

Salah satu gaya hidup yang membuat saya berdecak kagum adalah gaya hidup Jepang. Mengapa saya katakan demikian? Karena memang ini bukan isapan jempol semata. Selain karena dunia sudah banyak yang mengetahuinya, saya sendiri pernah berada di Jepang selama lebih kurang delapan tahun lamanya dan ini sungguh pengalaman yang sangat luar biasa sekali tentunya.

Kalau saya bandingkan gaya hidup orang Indonesia dan gaya hidup orang Jepang, wahhh…, sungguh teramat jauh sekali perbedaannya. Bagaimana gaya hidup orang Indonesia ? Secara kasat mata, rasanya saya tidak perlu menjelaskan lagi. Tetapi yang jelas dan yang tidak pernah berubah adalah, terlalu santai dan membiarkan banyak waktu terbuang sia-sia. Dan saya tidak pernah bilang itu adalah hal yang buruk. Tergantung bagaimana Anda menyikapinya saja. Selama Anda menikmatinya yah… kenapa tidak !?

Berbanding terbalik ketika saya melihat gaya hidup Jepang. Dimana waktu begitu sangat berharga bagi orang Jepang. Saya bisa bilang kalau hidup di Jepang, laksana seperti robot saja. Lho koq…!? Iya, maksudnya adalah karena orang Jepang sangat menghargai waktu, sehingga selalunya diisi untuk hal-hal yang bermanfaat. Khususnya bagi para pekerja di sana. Lapangan pekerjaan yang begitu luas, menuntut orang Jepang berlomba-lomba untuk bekerja dan bekerja. Telah tertanam di dalam benak mereka bagaimana pentingnya mencari uang dari sejak dini. Karena hanya dengan uang mereka bisa mendapatkan kesenangan mereka.

Satu hal yang paling unik adalah bagaimana mereka memanfaatkan waktu di sela-sela hari kerja mereka. Biasanya pada malam hari adalah malam yang tepat buat mereka menghabiskan waktu dengan bersenang-senang. Misalnya saja mabuk-mabukan. Tapi hebatnya, keesokan harinya, dengan semangat ke – Jepang – an, mereka tetap melaksanakan kewajiban mereka untuk bekerja. Karena tiap perusahaan di sana memiliki peraturan yang sangat disiplin. Malah pimpinan perusahaan biasanya datang lebih awal daripada pekerjanya. Bagaimana dengan di sini yah…?? hehehe…

Tadi saya katakan bahwa telah tertanam di dalam benak mereka bagaimana pentingnya mencari uang sejak dini, bukan? Orang Jepang itu terkenal juga dengan hematnya menyimpan uang. Para orang tua di Jepang, sangat tidak memanjakan anak-anaknya dengan uang dan segala fasilitas nyaman lainnya. Dan anak-anak Jepang tidak kehabisan akal bagaimana caranya mendapatkan uang. Jadi untuk menyiasatinya yah dengan bekerja part time yang biasanya mereka lakukan di supermarket atau di restoran. Wehh…, luar biasa sekali yah…

Negara Jepang adalah salah satu negara maju di seluruh dunia. Lalu apakah tidak ada orang miskin atau pengemis di Jepang ? Hmmm…, tetap ada. Mereka-mereka itu adalah orang-orang yang malas bekerja atau orang-orang stress akibat korupsi dan segala macamnya. Tidak sedikit juga jumlahnya para koruptor yang mengambil jalan pintas untuk mengakhiri hidupnya. Karena orang Jepang paling tidak bisa menahan rasa malu akibat ulah buruknya. Mereka tidak suka berhutang uang dan tidak pula suka berhutang budi atas kebaikan orang lain. Secepatnya akan mereka balas kebaikan seseorang dengan kebaikan juga, bisa berbentuk bingkisan dan lain sebagainya kecuali uang.

Bila di Indonesia terbiasa dengan pergaulan saling traktir sesama teman atau sama pacar, di Jepang beda lagi. Mereka terbiasa dengan gaya pergaulan BMM alias bayar masing-masing.

Sebenarnya masih banyak lagi lho hal-hal yang membedakan gaya hidup Jepang dengan gaya hidup kita sehari-hari. Tapi saya khawatir, ntar bacanya malah jadi pegel dan kunang-kunang. Intinya orang Jepang itu tidak suka punya hutang, tidak suka ngobrol di saat jam kerja, bebas berekspresi dalam berbusana dan pergaulan, juga sama sekali tidak bergaya hidup konsumtif. Kalau ada yang mau ditanyakan dan masih penasaran, monggo lho yah mampir di komen saya…

Mengapa jika Jari direndam dalam air mengkerut

2011-03-21T01:56:00.001+07:00

Hari ini saya menemukan mengapa kerut jari dalam air. Untuk jawaban yang cepat, air menyapu zat berminyak yang melindungi kulit Anda. Ketika itu terjadi, jenis tertentu dari sel mati pada kulit Anda akan menyerap air yang menyebabkan sel untuk membengkak, tapi lapisan di bawahnya tidak. Jadi bengkak, dikombinasikan dengan tempat kulit dihubungkan bawahnya untuk lapisan non-membengkak, menyebabkan ujung jari Anda untuk melihat keriput semua.
Jadi itulah jawabannya, cepat generik. Lebih teknis, ada zat / lilin berminyak kulit Anda mengeluarkan dari kelenjar sebaceous disebut "sebum". Dalam kelenjar, sebum diproduksi dalam sel khusus dan kemudian dikeluarkan ketika sel-sel tersebut pecah. Zat ini, antara keuntungan lainnya, memiliki efek ganda untuk membantu kulit dan rambut tetap terhidrasi bawahnya, sehingga tidak mendapatkan kering dan pecah-pecah, selain itu juga membantu melindungi kulit Anda dari kelebihan kelembaban dari luar. Anda mungkin melihat sebum di beberapa titik di rambut Anda jika Anda pergi beberapa hari tanpa mencucinya. Rambut Anda akan mulai merasa sangat berminyak ketika Anda menjalankan tangan Anda melalui itu. Bila Anda berada dalam air untuk waktu yang lama, sebum ini akan hanyut dari kulit dan rambut, menghilangkan lapisan pelindung ini.
Sekarang Anda mungkin bertanya-tanya mengapa hanya jari Anda mendapatkan tips dan jari-jari kaki keriput dan bukan bagian tubuh Anda (atau paling tidak hampir sama cepat). Alasan mengapa tidak 100% mengerti, tetapi kami memiliki ide yang cukup baik dari apa yang terjadi di sini. lapisan kulit terluar ini, epidermis, mengandung protein yang disebut keratin. Protein ini membantu memperkuat kulit Anda. Mati sel keratin juga membentuk epidermis 'lapisan permukaan, yang disebut stratum korneum (Latin untuk' cukup lucu horny layer ',). Jadi sekali semua sebum pelindung hanyut, sel-sel keratin mati menyerap air seperti spons dan membengkak. Inilah sebabnya mengapa kulit Anda jauh lebih mudah untuk memotong atau istirahat bila terendam air. Lapisan luar yang kuat dari sel-sel keratin mati kehilangan beberapa ketangguhan bila terendam air. Alasan maka jari-jari kaki dan jari mendapatkan lebih banyak keriput adalah bahwa mereka mengandung lapisan tebal dari kedua hidup dan sel-sel keratin mati daripada seluruh tubuh Anda. Hal ini menyebabkan mereka lebih terasa membengkak maka sisa kulit Anda sebagai sel keratin mati menyerap air.
Pengaruh kerut terjadi, bukan hanya pembengkakan umum, karena lapisan dalam hidup sel keratin kurang lebih tetap sama seperti sebelum Anda berada di air, sedangkan lapisan luar membengkak, hubungan antara kedua lapisan tinggal dekat berikat sedangkan tempat-tempat yang tidak terhubung bebas membengkak, maka, pruney jari dan jari kaki.

Menakjubkan. Penumuan harta karun suku maya kuno

2011-03-21T01:35:00.000+07:00

Harta karun emas yang berasal dari peradaban Maya di Amerika Selatan dipercaya tersimpan di sebuah danau wilayah Guatemala. Baru-baru ini, arkeolog asal Jerman mengklaim bahwa dirinya berhasil memecahkan kode dalam buku kuno berisi informasi penyimpanan harta karun yang dilengkapi dengan peta.
Arkeolog tersebut adalah Joachim Rittsteig, guru besar emeritus Dresden University. Rittsteig yang terlibat ekspedisi ke Danau Izabal Guatemala mengatakan bahwa halaman-halaman dalam buku tersebut berisi informasi spesifik tentang harta karun yang dimaksud.
Rittsteig mengatakan, "Halaman 52 berbicara tentang Atlan, ibu kota Maya, yang hancur oleh gempa bumi pada tanggal 30 Oktober 666 SM. Di kota ini, suku Maya menyimpan 2.156 emas batangan yang diklaim suku Maya sebagai miliknya."
Rittsteig yang telah mempelajari teks dalam buku itu selama 40 tahun mengatakan, "Dresden Codex menunjukkan adanya harta karun besar berupa emas murni seberat 8 ton." Koran Jerman Bild yang mensponsori ekspedisi ini akan mengirim reporter, fotografer, kamerawan, dan penyelam profesional ke Danau Izabal untuk menemukan emas itu. (kompas)

Inilah penyebab Kenapa reaktor nukliar berbahaya.

2011-03-21T01:31:00.001+07:00

Manusia tidak dapat lepas dari ketergantungannya terhadap listrik sebagai salah satu sumber kehidupan. Melihat sudah menipisnya defisit bahan bakar maupun mineral sebagai pembangkit listrik banyak alternatif yang ditemukan, termasuk nuklir.

Reaktor nuklir adalah tempat terjadinya reaksi pembelahan inti (nuklir) atau dikenal dengan reaksi fisi berantai yang terkendali. Bagian utama dari reaktor nuklir yaitu: elemen bakar, batang kendali, moderator, pendingin dan perisai.

Reaktor nuklir dibedakan berdasarkan fungsinya menjadi dua, yaitu reaktor penelitian/riset, dan reaktor daya (pembangkit listrik tenaga nuklir.

Reaksi nuklir ini akan menghasilkan energi panas dalam jumlah cukup besar. Contohnya pada reaktor daya, energi panas yang dihasilkan dapat digunakan untuk menghasilkan uap panas, dan selanjutnya digunakan untuk mengerakkan turbin-generator yang bisa menghasilkan listrik.

Sedangkan pada reaktor penelitian, panas yang dihasilkan tidak dimanfaatkan dan dapat dibuang ke lingkungan.

Berikut adalah garis besar cara kerja sebuah reaktor nuklir(jenis PWR) hingga bisa menghasilkan listrik, seperti yang dilansir Nuklir.INFO:

- Di dalam inti reaktor, reaksi fisi terjadi karena adanya penembakan neutron terhadap bahan bakar nuklir yang menghasilkan energi panas.
- Energi panas yang dihasilkan dari inti reaktor kemudian dibawa oleh air bertekanan pada primary loop ke generator uap.
- Di dalam generator uap, air yang berasal dari secondary loop menjadi terpanaskan dan terbentuklah uap.
- Uap yang dihasilkan diarahkan ke turbin uap untuk memutar generator dan akhirnya menghasilkan listrik.

Tetapi kurang cermatnya perhitungan dalam pendinginan reaktor akan meningkatkan konsentrasi pada inti materi. Ini terbukti pada saat Jepang mengalami situasi serba kacau karena gempa dan gelap, memaksa para petugas berimprovisasi dalam mendinginkan reaktor.

"Mereka bekerja dalam keadaan panik untuk mencari solusi mendinginkan inti reaktor. Ini mengindikasikan seberapa seriusnya masalah. Mereka terpaksa melakukan tindakan yang tidak biasa dan berimprovisasi untuk mendinginkan reaktor nuklir," ujar Mark Hibbs, peneliti senior dari program kebijakan nuklir di Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

Akibatnya, menurut Badan Energi Atom Internasional (IAEA) lebih dari 170.000 orang dalam radius 10-20 km dari instalasi pembangkit di Fukushima telah diungsikan sehubungan dengan ledakan yang terjadi pada pembangkit tersebut.

Dampak sesaat atau jangka pendek akibat radiasi tinggi di sekitar reaktor nuklir antara lain mual, muntah, diare, sakit kepala, dan demam.

Sementara itu, dampak yang baru muncul setelah terpapar radiasi nuklir selama beberapa hari di antaranya adalah sebagai berikut: pusing, mata berkunang-kunang, disorientasi atau bingung menentukan arah, lemah, letih, dan tampak lesu, kerontokan rambut dan kebotakan, muntah darah atau berak darah, tekanan darah rendah, dan luka susah sembuh.

Dampak jangka panjang dari radiasi nuklir umumnya justru dipicu oleh tingkat radiasi yang rendah sehingga tidak disadari dan tidak diantisipasi hingga bertahun-tahun. Beberapa dampak mematikan akibat paparan radiasi nuklir jangka panjang antara lain kanker, penuaan dini, gangguan sistem saraf dan reproduksi, dan mutasi genetik. (inilah)

Komputer tablet berlayar sentuh berukuran 9,7 inci ini menebarkan 'demam' iPad ke seluruh dunia sejak diluncurkan April tahun lalu. Kini iPad generasi kedua kembali mengguncang dunia.

Lalu kenapa Steve Job selalu membubuhkan huruf 'i' dalam setiap produk buatannya? Pada tahun 1998, Job membuat iMac yaitu penggabungan antara internet dan Macintosh.

Kata itu dijodohkan Job bukan tanpa makna, iMac merupakan perkawinan antara kesenangan penduduk dunia berinternet dengan kesederhanaan Macintosh.

Tapi, internet bukanlah arti satu-satunya yang dimasud Job. Kini dengan pelbagai produk baru dari Apple, kata 'i' melambangkan banyak makna seperti informasi, intruksi dan inspirasi.

Nah, kata mana yang menurut Anda paling tepat. (tempo)

Facebook menutupi situs Porno

2011-03-21T01:27:00.001+07:00

Sebagai perbandingan pada situs hiburan lain, termasuk situs porno, situs-situs ini hanya mendapat perolehan sebesar 12,18% trafik online. Seperti dikutip BBC, pertama situs kalinya jejaring sosial mengalahkan hiburan dalam hal popularitas.

Facebook diketahui memiliki 56% total kunjungan. "Ketika jejaring sosial saling bersaing, banyak pengguna muncul di berbagai tempat di internet," kata Research Director Experian Hitwise Robin Goad.

Sebanyak satu dari delapan orang berhenti mengakses jejaring sosial untuk membuka situs lain, lanjutnya. Misalnya Facebook, situs ini merupakan sumber kunci trafik banyak jejaring sosial.

“Hampir seperlima orang meninggalkan Twitter untuk mengakses jejaring sosial lain,” ungkap Goad. (vivanews)

The existence of the planet is still to be seen. However, some circles believe that the evidence has been gathered through the observation of NASA's telescopes, WISE. Data related to the findings of the planet will be published this year.
Daniel Whitmire of the University of Louisiana Lafayette, U.S., believe that the data could prove the existence of the planet in two years. "If true, I and my colleague, John Matese, will be turned upside down. And, it's not easy at our age, "he said.
For a while, the planet is named Tyche. The name was taken from a Greek goddess who determines the fate of a city. Tyche allegedly is a giant gas planet, the same kinds of planets like Jupiter.
Tyche may occurred in the outer Oort cloud, an area "remote" in the solar system. The distance of this planet to the Sun to reach 15,000 times the Earth-Sun distance, or 375 times the distance of the Sun-Pluto.
Whitmire believes, Tyche was the main constituent of Hydrogen and Helium. He also revealed that the planet's atmosphere is similar to Jupiter's atmosphere. "You can expect this planet has a satellite," he said.
Generally, the planet is located in the Oort cloud has a temperature near absolute zero (-273 degrees Celsius). However, Tyche estimated to have a temperature of -73 degrees celsius, 4-5 times warmer than Pluto.
If proven the truth of existence, Tyche will be the ninth planet once the largest. International Astronomical Union (IAU) will be a party to approve or deny the existence of this planet.
Whitmire and Matese suspect the existence of planets based on the existence of irregularities at an angle of arrival of many comets are there in the Oort Cloud. By 20 per cent certain amount that emerged since the year 1898 has come a greater angle than it should.
Possible existence of Tyche Whitmire disclosed in an interview with Thе Independent on Sunday (13/02/2011). Whitmire The results were based on the discrepancy angle comet which was published in the journal Icarus this month.

Inilah Planet yang Menjadi Kandidat Pengganti Pluto (4 Kali Jupiter)

2011-02-15T07:49:00.000+07:00

Sekelompok astronom yakin bahwa mereka telah menemukan planet baru dalam tata surya. Planet tersebut diduga berukuran empat kali lebih besar daripada Jupiter dan berada pada jarak yang sangat jauh dari Matahari.
Keberadaan planet tersebut masih perlu dibuktikan. Namun, beberapa kalangan percaya bahwa bukti-bukti telah terkumpul lewat hasil observasi teleskop NASA, WISE. Data terkait temuan planet tersebut akan dipublikasikan tahun ini.
Daniel Whitmire dari Universitas Lousiana Lafayette, AS, percaya bahwa data-data bisa membuktikan keberadaan planet itu dalam dua tahun. “Jika benar, saya dan rekan saya, John Matese, akan jungkir balik. Dan, itu tidak mudah pada usia kami,” katanya.
Untuk sementara, planet itu dinamai Tyche. Nama itu diambil dari nama dewi Yunani yang menentukan nasib suatu kota. Tyche diduga merupakan planet gas raksasa, jenis planet yang sama seperti Jupiter.
Tyche diduga terdapat di bagian luar Awan Oort, sebuah kawasan “terpencil” di tata surya. Jarak planet ini dengan Matahari mencapai 15.000 kali dari jarak Matahari-Bumi atau 375 kali jarak Matahari-Pluto.
Whitmire percaya, penyusun utama Tyche adalah Hidrogen dan Helium. Ia juga mengungkapkan bahwa atmosfer planet ini mirip atmosfer Jupiter. “Anda juga bisa berharap planet ini memiliki beberapa satelit,” katanya.
Umumnya, planet yang berada di wilayah Awan Oort memiliki suhu hampir nol mutlak (-273 derajat celsius). Namun, Tyche diperkirakan memiliki suhu -73 derajat celsius, 4-5 kali lebih hangat dari Pluto.
Jika terbukti kebenaran keberadaannya, Tyche akan menjadi planet kesembilan sekaligus terbesar. International Astronomical Union (IAU) akan menjadi pihak yang menyetujui atau menolak keberadaan planet ini.
Whitmire dan Matese menduga keberadaan planet berdasarkan adanya kejanggalan pada sudut kedatangan komet yang banyak terdapat di Awan Oort. Sebesar 20 persen jumlah tertentu yang muncul sejak tahun 1898 memiliki sudut datang yang lebih besar dari seharusnya.
Kemungkinan keberadaan Tyche diungkapkan Whitmire dalam wawancaranya dengan Thе Independent, Minggu (13/2/2011). Hasil penelitian Whitmire itu didasarkan pada adanya kejanggalan sudut datang komet yang dipublikasikan di jurnal Icarus bulan ini.

The Size Of Our World - Stars And Planets In Scale

2011-02-10T04:24:00.001+07:00

The Solar System consists of the Sun and the astronomical objects bound to it by gravity, all of which formed from the collapse of a giant molecular cloud approximately 4.6 billion years ago. Of the many objects that orbit the Sun, most of the mass is contained within eight relatively solitary planets whose orbits are almost circular and lie within a nearly flat disc called the ecliptic plane. The four smaller inner planets, Mercury,
Venus, Earth and Mars, also called the terrestrial planets, are primarily composed of rock and metal. The four outer planets, the gas giants, are substantially more massive than the terrestrials. The two largest, Jupiter and Saturn, are composed mainly of hydrogen and helium; the two outermost planets, Uranus and Neptune, are composed largely of ices, such as water, ammonia and methane, and are often referred to separately as "ice giants".
These computer generated images illustrate the scale of the Solar System. Unbelievable computer-rendered images which illustrate how our solar system looks. If you think the Sun is huge, do not miss the last picture and see Betelgeuse. Basically it's models of the stars in our solar system that give a sense of perspective.
