My Country

My country is now mourning. Profound sorrow to pierce the bone. Various successive trials befall the beautiful country of this elegant. Starting from flash floods in Wasior, accompanied by tsunami quake in Mentawai islands, until the eruption of Mount Merapi in Central Java. As a result, many casualties occur not less. In addition to the lost and property destroyed, many human victims torn by fierce nature. Natural forces can not be predicted in advance. Only the signs are only humans can read it.
Humans like flying dust swept away by the ferocity of nature are volatile. We are helpless made despite all the efforts we have done. Preparation for the preparation is the maximum we do. Mobilize all our resources to cope. Instead, the power of God is stronger than everything. In the end we can only pray and surrender to Almighty God for His will. Hopefully, this incident reminds us how great the power of God, which is inaccessible by the ideas of the human brain.
With these events I hope my country remains steadfast in the face. Let us ahead of a better tomorrow. Let us build this beautiful country with faith, devotion and full responsibility for the next generation.
Smile my country .....
Glad my nation .....
Show the world that we can and are able .....
To Wasior, Mentawai, and Central Java (Sleman, Klaten, Magelang and surrounding areas), remain steadfast and patient

Kamis.., Hari Baik Bercinta

Selama ini kita percaya, melakukan berbagai hal di hari apapun merupakan hari paling baik dalam kehidupan kita. Tetapi, menurut penelitian London School of Economics yang baru-baru ini dirilis, ternyata setiap hari itu mengandung makna sendiri-sendiri untuk melakukan suatu kegiatan. Misalnya,  Kamis menjadi hari terbaik untuk bercinta. Sedangkan Rabu, hari baik untuk menemukan cinta.

Bagaimana dengan hari-hari lainnya? Berikut ini uriannya, dikutip dari Timesofindia.

Senin, hari paling baik untuk menekan stres. Luangkan waktu untuk bersantai di hari ini. Sebab, menurut studi British Medical Journal, sekitar 20 persen orang punya kemungkinan meninggal akibat serangan jantung di hari ini. Apalagi kalau seseorang menghabiskan banyak waktu di akhir pekan untuk mengonsumsi minuman beralkohol, dan kembali mendapatkan stres saat mulai bekerja lagi di hari ini.

Selasa, terbaik untuk merancang daftar tugas dan pekerjaan. Menurut survei, para pekerja sangat produktif pada hari ini dibandingkan hari-hari lainnya.

Rabu, hari terbaik untuk mencari cinta. Menurut survei, 40 persen dari 8.000 partisipan menilai bahwa hari ini menjadi hari paling istimewa untuk kencan pertama.

Kamis, terbaik untuk berhubungan seksual. Menurut penelitian, titik puncak energi kortisol alami yang merangsang hormon seks terjadi pada hari ini. Jadi, sebaiknya Anda mengatur jam alarm agar Anda terbangun dan bisa bercinta di Kamis pagi. Pada hari ini, hormon seks testosteron pada pria dan estrogen pada wanita lima kali lebih tinggi dari hari biasanya.

Jumat, terbaik untuk berhenti menghisap rokok. Jika Anda mematikan rokok pada hari ini, menurut penelitian, Anda akan mampu bertahan dari godaan untuk menghidupkan rokok lagi pada akhir pekan. Ini terjadi karena Jumat merupakan hari pertama ketika orang berada di tingkat tekad yang kuat.

Sabtu, terbaik untuk memiliki bayi. Anak-anak yang lahir pada hari ini memiliki kesempatan yang lebih baik untuk menjadi orang penting.

Minggu, terbaik untuk makan di luar. Menyiapkan masakan sendiri di hari ini lebih stres daripada pergi ke dokter gigi. Jadi, hilangkan lelah dan santailah dengan mencari makan di luar.

One-fifth Seconds to Fall In Love


Although many say that love grows in the liver, the process actually occurs more frequently in the brain. More striking again, love at first sight really happen because the brain responds very quickly. Not just fast because it occurs within 0.2 seconds only, the presence of feelings of love also involves a very complex process. At least there are 12 areas in the brain involved in the release of various emotions of love hormones such as dopamine, oxytocin, adrenaline and vasopresi.

The role of each part of the brain differently depending on the shape of love experienced by a person. For example, the unconditional love (unconditional love) as it experienced a mother to her children, most held the role of the midbrain. The dominance of a more complex role occurs precisely at the torrid love (passionate love). In this kind of feeling, there are some parts of the brain tend to be more active in them the reward system which is a pleasure as well as the cognitive center for imaging the body.

Feelings of love also marked by rising levels of Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) in blood. Chemical compounds which recorded a sharp increase when a person fascinated by this partner to prove that the phenomenon of 'love at first sight "really exist. "Any reaction that occurs in the liver actually comes from the brain. Therefore I would say love it is formed in the brain, not in the liver," said Stephanie Ortigue, a professor from Syracuse University in New York as quoted by the ScienceDaily, Monday (26 / 10/2010).

Prof. Ortigue examining brain reaction when they fall in love and publish the results in the Journal of Sexual Medicine recently. He hopes his findings could be useful in dealing with emotional disorders and depression in people who rarely knows what it's like falling in love.
