RTICLES ABOUT fighting between STUDENT IN INDONESIA
Student brawls lately relapsed again! A few days ago in a fight erupted between students Semarang involving dozens of students. Victims fight a dozen people that included real numbers not all students but there are also teachers. Teacher perhaps well-intentioned heart proved to be a victim of a mass brawl; allegedly leaking head hit a stone's throw from the individual school teens berhuru-nutrient. Not only that. After the security forces managed to secure the individuals involved in the fight student turns men get the weapon, a dagger. It is all that individual profesionalkah our students in a physical fight? I do not know: but in addition to sharp weapons were also found pills Mix Nipam types. These pills include the type of drug that can lead to "fly" (fly) people who drink it. These pills can lower levels of rationality, those who drink, and the pill is precisely the kind Nipam taken by the driver of the bus that killed dozens of passengers on one of the toll road to Jakarta some time ago. Why are the individuals involved student fights should carry weapons? Why do they also have to take pills Mix all? I do not know; seems they are deliberately preparing himself to fight, to hurt your opponent no other real friends of their own. Although currently fights or brawls student can be solved but it is not impossible at times will erupt again. Not intend to downplay the role of our security forces; yet empirically demonstrated many cases these safeguards are often temporary since they will make a tantrum after being released again. There are certain elements that make a scene students has become a sort of hobby.

Forest

Forest fires are one of the causes of deforestation and are great and are very harmful. Repair damage caused by forest fires take a long time, even more so to put it into the woods again. Therefore, we need to consider several things that can cause a fire huta like this.

Noting forest areas with hotspots (hotspot) is quite high, especially peatlands in the summer and a prolonged drought.
Allowed to open fields or farmland by burning forests.
Prohibited scar burning campfire in the woods.
Not making charcoal in the forest.
Do not carelessly discard cigarette butts in the forest.

Here are some things that can be done to address the possibility or occurrence of forest fires.

Creating a high tower observer following telecommunications equipment.
Forest roving patrol regularly to address the possibility of fire.
Provide fire truck transportation system that is ready for use.
The shooting images at regular intervals, especially in the dry season to monitor the forest fire moved at a high enough point that is prone to fires.

When a forest fire then how to do to make extinguishing forest fires are as follows.

Spraying water directly if bersekala small fires.
If the flame of fire bersekala broad and large, we can localize the fire by burning the area around the fire and directing fire into the center of the combustion, which generally starts from blocking the fire areas such as rivers, lakes, roads, and hilltops.
Spraying water evenly from dengna air using helicopters or aircraft.
Disposing of artificial rain.

virus vs antivirus

using Antivirus
Software or antivirus software is very easy to get. How to get there antivirus software by purchasing some are free software or free antivirus software numerous and easily found on the internet. Remember, though free, but do not use free antivirus for allegedly pirated eradicate the virus will be less effective. Free Antivirus powerful enough to eradicate the virus that attacks
computer.

Stay Updates
All software runs on a computer should always update continues. Do not just antivirus software that is updated, the other software must always be updated. Yes, all the software needs to be updated, from the drivers to the computer operating system.

Software or no software is perfect, definitely any software or software has flaws. By because they were, the software update is very important to support the performance of computers and software. Remember, do not believe that there are programmers
said the perfect homemade software. Update antivirus and other software are necessary because the virus is always updated.

type

Narcotics are substances or drugs derived from plants or no plants, either synthetic or semi-synthetic that can cause degradation or alteration of consciousness, loss of pain and can lead to dependence (Act No.. 22nd in 1997). Its the kind of narcotics are:

Papaver plants, raw opium, opium cooking (opium, opium dust, Jicingko), opium drug, morfina, cocaine, ekgonina, cannabis plants and cannabis resin.
Salts and derivatives of morfina and cocaine, as well as mixtures and preparations containing the above ingredients.

Are substances or psychotropic drugs, either natural or synthetic non narcotic, is efficacious psychoactive through selective effects on the central nervous system that causes a change in mental activity and behavior (Law. 5/1997). Psychotropic Substances include, among others:

Sedatin (Pill BK), Rohypnol, Magadon, Valium, Mandrax, Amfetamine, Fensiklidin, Metakualon, Metifenidat, Phenobarbital, Flunitrazepam, Ecstasy, Shabu-shabu, LSD (Lycergic Syntetic diethylamide) and so on.

Addictive other hazardous materials are natural materials, semi-synthetic or synthetic that can be used as a substitute for cocaine morfina or that could interfere with the central nervous system, such as:

• containing ethyl alcohol ethanol, inhalen / sniffing (solvent) in the form of organic matter (carbon) that produces effects similar to those produced by an alcoholic beverage or drug anaestetik if the scent is inhaled. Example: glue / adhesive, acetone, ether, and so on.

FIGHT NATION IN INDONESIA JAPAN & colonial period NATION WITH RESPECT TO INDEPENDENCE RI

CONDITION NATION AT JAPANESE OCCUPATION
At first, the arrival of Japanese troops on a warm welcome by the people of Indonesia. But in reality, the Japanese are not much different from other colonial nations. Even more savage treatment of the Japanese nation and the misery of Indonesia. Source - the source of the nation's economy is fully controlled entirely by the Japanese. Then the pain and misery blanketed Indonesia.
Having managed to lord over Indonesia, Japan see the possibility of difficulties in meeting food, therefore, Japan's rice area expansion, extension, control over the use and distribution of scrap goods, monitoring of crops, and regulatory restrictions on the means of production.

Coffee

Drinking coffee in the morning is believed many people can provide additional energy to start the activity. However, recent studies have found that coffee lovers are more prone to drug addiction.

It's not all coffee lovers using drugs. But if you already know, people who like to drink coffee addiction easier for illegal drugs such as cocaine and amphetamines.

It is based on the study of Vermont University researchers in the United States that have been published in Drug and Alcohol Dependence.

According to researchers, people who respond positively to caffeine including coffee and energy drinks, will be more easily respond to other stimulant drugs such as amphetamines and cocaine. This is the reason why coffee lovers can easily become addicted to drugs.

"People respond to the drug in very different ways. For example, a single dose of drug can produce completely opposite effects on the two men that one of them really love coffee and other hate coffee," explains Professor Stacey Sigmon of Vermont University, USA, as reported by Dailymail, Wednesday (12/10/2011).

Professor Sigmon said it was important to enhance the understanding of these differences, because this could be a key difference in susceptibility or resistance to drug abuse.

The scientists believe that one's response to d-amphetamine also show how they will respond to drugs like cocaine because it has the same effect.

This study is the first prospective study of caffeine in predicting positive subjective effects to other drugs.

"Although this data does not mean that all coffee lovers at risk for becoming addicted to cocaine, but this study suggests that individuals vary greatly in subjective and behavioral responses to psychomotor stimulants," concludes Professor Sigmon.

Global Warming

Causes of Global Warming | Brief article about Global Warming - Global warming (global warming) is a phenomenon of increasing global temperatures caused by greenhouse gases (greenhouse effect) due to increased emissions of gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), dinitrooksida (N2O ) and CFC so that solar energy trapped in the earth's atmosphere.
Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Various literature states that global temperature rise occurs in the range of 1.5? 40 Celsius by the end of the 21st century.

Global warming resulting in widespread and serious impacts for bio-geophysical environment (such as melting polar ice caps, rising sea levels, expanding deserts, increasing rainfall and floods, climate change, extinction of some flora and fauna, fauna and pest migration, etc. ).

While the impact of the socio-economic activities of the community. Among others: interference with the function of coastal areas and coastal cities. In addition, disruption of the function of infrastructure and facilities such as roads, ports and airports. Also disruption of settlements, reduction of agricultural productivity, to increase the risk of cancer and disease. (from various sources)

Hardware and Software

Computers have been growing very rapidly. Basically there are some areas of the development of this technology. Here are some areas of computer technology articles can be found pal, among others:

Computer Software

Of course the development of the software is also not lost with the development of computer software. Various needs of increasingly demanding creative developers to create a variety of computer software. The development of this software can be found and read on my friend computer technology articles are scattered in various communities on the internet.

Computer Hardware

Computer hardware or hardware is often referred to as a growing part of the computer. Increasingly, computer hardware developed increasingly sophisticated with better capabilities. Some hardware is experiencing significant growth is the speed of the processor, the computer memory technology, hard drive capacity is becoming increasingly large, and other technologies.

Programming Language

For those who are interested in the creation Buddies computer programs, computer technology course related article would interest my friend. There are many programming languages ​​that can be used in making a variety of applications. Within these articles, my friend can draw a variety of science-related programming languages ​​are concerned.

Security of data

Data security is of great importance in the world of computers. So vast and rapid development of the network, especially computer networks make security a factor that can not be removed from the attention. From various articles about computer technology and data security systems and networks, buddy can understand more deeply what should be done for the safety of the computer that my friend had.

The latest technology

In various articles computer technology, friend can also find out how the expanding role of computers in various fields. Buddy will find so sophisticated computers in these areas. Almost all human life can be aided by the presence of computer technology.

Implementation of Quality Education

"Education is expensive grade". The phrase often appears to justify the high costs associated with the public to get an education bench. The high cost of education from Kindergarten (TK) to Higher Education (PT) makes the poor have no choice but to not go to school. The poor should not be sekolah.Untuk SDN just entering kindergarten and now will cost Rp 500,000, - to Rp 1,000,000. There's even picked up over $ 1 million. Log in junior / senior high school could reach Rp 1 million to Rp 5 million.

The more expensive cost of education today is not separated from government policy to implement School-Based Management (SBM). SBM in Indonesia in reality better understood as an effort to mobilize funds. Therefore, the School Committee / Board of Education which is the organ MBS always required the element of entrepreneurs. The assumption, employers have access to a wider capital. As a result, after the School Committee was formed, sometimes impersonate any levy money, "according to the decision of the School Committee."

However, at the level of implementation, it is not transparent, because the elected officials and members of the School Committee are the people close to the Principal. As a result, the School Committee policy only became legitimator Principal and MBS was just a disclaimer legitimacy of the state on the issue of education of its people.
This condition will be worse with the Bill on Legal Education (Bill BHP). Changing the status of a public education to a form of legal entity has obvious economic and political consequences enormous. With the change of status, the government can easily throw the responsibility for the education of its citizens to the owners of legal entities that figure is not clear. State University was turned into a State Owned Legal Entity (BHMN). The emergence BHMN and MBS are some examples of the controversial education policies. BHMN own impact on the soaring cost of university education in some favorites.

Role of Education in Development

Education has completed the task of human resources development ION. Enabled development tramp always synchronized with the demands of the times. The times always bring up new questions that have never previously imagined possible. This chapter will examine an issue with educational trees, and trees interdependence between those verses, factors that influence its development and current problems and how they handled.

What happened if development in Indonesia is not accompanied by the development of the education sector?. Despite his physical development well, but what's the point when moral nation collapse. If this happens, the economy will be in trouble, because every person will corruption. Until sooner or later will come the day when the country and the nation is destroyed. Therefore, for prevention, education should be a priority in the development of the state.

Health Drink Tea

Tea is a tropical and subtropical plant which is scientifically known as Camellia Sinensis. From approximately 3000 types of tea result of cross-breeding, the results obtained are 3 kinds of tea process, namely green tea, oolong tea, and black tea. The way is to chop tea processing tea leaves and dried in the sun so that the chemical changes before being dried. The treatment will cause the leaves to brown color and gives black tea flavor characteristics.

Green tea, types of tea oldest, well-liked, especially by the people of Japan and China. Here the tea leaves undergo little processing, heating and drying that only green leaf color can be maintained. While oolong tea is more a kind of transition between black tea and green tea. The three types of tea each have health benefits because it contains polyphenols called biochemical bond, including flavonoids. Flavonoids are a group of antioxidants that are naturally present in vegetables, fruits, and beverages such as tea and wine.

Subclass of polyphenols include flavonols, flavones, flavanones, anthocyanidins, catechins, and biflavan. Derivatives of catechins such as epi-catechin (EC), epigallo-catechin (EGC), catechin gallate-epigallo (EGCG) and quercetin is commonly found in tea. EGCG and quercetin is a powerful antioxidant with a strength of up to 4-5 times greater than vitamin E and C, which also are potent antioxidants. Antioxidants are known to prevent the cells from damage since any damage to the cells will contribute more than 50 diseases.

Green tea contains EGCG, as well as black tea, says a biochemist. In a study by Dutch researchers say, consume 4-5 cups of black tea every day will reduce the risk of stroke by 70% compared with those who drank 2 cups of tea a day or less. Other reports mention more black tea consumption was associated with lower rates of heart attack. John Folts, director of the Medical School, Center for Research and Prevention of Arterial Thrombosis, University of Wisconsin, USA, discover the key properties of flavonoids in tea. Research results showed that flavonoids in black tea can inhibit the clotting of blood platelet cells thus preventing the clogging of blood vessels in coronary disease and stroke hantung. Another study mentioned that fanatical tea drinkers had higher levels of cholesterol and low blood pressure, although it remains unclear whether it is directly caused by the tea.

Researchers at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, USA to find the effect of the use of green tea on the skin up to 90%. Apparently tea is very effective in protecting the skin from the sun can cause skin cancer. Tea also contains fluoride which is known to strengthen tooth enamel and helps prevent tooth decay. In a laboratory study in Japan, researchers found that tea helps prevent the formation of dental plaque and kill bacteria cause inflammation of the gums.

Research in Japan showed that its occupation of tea producing region known as fanatic tea drinker, very low mortality rate due to cancer. Another study, carried out cooperation between research teams Oguni and cancer research center in Beijing to study the effects of green tea extract on mice that had been given food rations carcinogenic (cancer-triggering substances). Reportedly, the average rate of cancer in mice that received green tea extract half of the mice that did not receive the green tea extract.

The researchers believe that known as catechin polyphenols found in green tea, help the human body fight cancer cells. Another study conducted by Oguni and Dr.. Masami Yamada of the Hamamatsu Medical Center found cathecin kill Helicobator pylori, the bacteria trigger stomach cancer.

Efficacy of Garlic

Dr. Yongxiang Zhang of the University of Tokyo, Japan stated that the ability of garlic inhibit deterioration of the brain and the immune system in animals is impressive. That does not mean that garlic is able to restore youth or completely inhibit the aging process. But at least the benefits of garlic helps prevent aging process.

In addition, according to research Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, SAMC chemicals found in garlic can inhibit cancer cell growth. By eating garlic, cancer risk can be reduced.

High cholesterol levels are usually a sign of the aging process. Garlic is consumed regularly in a certain period of time can help lower cholesterol levels. An anti-cholesterol in garlic called ajoene help prevent blood clots.

Dr. Gilles Fillion from the Institute Pasteur in France suspect, garlic can help relieve stress, anxiety, and depression. Of course, with a softer effect. He found that garlic is beneficial to help release serotonin, a chemical that is involved in regulating a wide range of mood and behavior, including anxiety, melancholy, pain, aggression, stress, lack of sleep and memory. High levels of serotonin in the brain tends to function as a sedative that placate you, facilitate sleep, and relieve melancholy. Garlic helps normalize the serotonin system.

all-Seat Stroke

Is it a stroke?

Stroke is a disorder of brain function caused by blood flow to the brain is impaired (reduced). As a result, nutrients and oxygen to the brain dbutuhkan not fulfilled. Cause there are two kinds of strokes, namely the existence of blockages in blood vessels (thrombus), and the presence of a ruptured blood vessel.

Generally a stroke suffered by the elderly, because the aging process causes hardening and narrowing of blood vessels (arteriosclerosis) and the presence of fats that clog arteries (atherosclerosis). But some recent cases show an increase in cases of stroke that occurs in adolescence and childbearing age (15-40 years). In this group, stroke is the leading cause of stress, drug abuse, alcohol, hereditary factors and unhealthy lifestyle.

Causes of stroke

In the case of stroke adolescence, genetic factors (heredity) is a major cause of stroke. Frequently encountered cases of stroke caused by blood vessels are fragile and easily broken, or blood system disorders such as hemophilia and thalassemia disease are passed down from parents of patients. Meanwhile, if a family member with diabetes (diabetes), hypertension (high blood pressure), and heart disease, stroke likely to be larger in other family members.

Other causes of stroke is a food with high levels of bad cholesterol (Low Density Lipoprotein) is very high. Koleserol evil abundant in junk food, or fast food. In addition, other causes of stroke is a lazy habit of exercising and moving, lots of drinking, smoking, use of narcotic and addictive substances, much less rest time, and prolonged stress. Rupture of blood vessels are also often caused by high blood pressure (hypertension).

Symptoms of stroke onset

The early symptoms of stroke are generally dizzy, head spinning (such as vertigo disease), followed by disorders of speech and mouth muscles move. Other symptoms are tergangguanya taste sensor (can not feel anything, such as pinched or pricked needles) and the body feels paralyzed side, and the absence of reflexes. Often occurs suddenly blind or blurred sight (because the supply of blood and oxygen to the eye is reduced drastically), impaired taste in the mouth system and muscles of the mouth (so often encountered people with a wry face), paralysis of the muscles of the body, and disruption system memory and emotion. Often encountered people can not stop crying because of paralysis of the brain controls the emotional system. It makes people act like stroke sufferers of mental illness, but it's not. Things like that need to be understood by the patient's family.

The healing process

There are 2 main healing process that must be followed patients. First is healing with medicines in hospitals. Strict control should be done to keep the bad cholesterol levels can be lowered and not getting up. In addition, patients are also forbidden to eat foods that can trigger a stroke such as junk food and salt (can trigger hypertension).

The healing process is fisiotherapy second, which exercises the muscles to restore muscle function and communication functions in order to be close to the original. Fisiotherapi Fisiotherapi conducted with instructors, and patients must adhere to the exercise performed. If this is not undertaken Fisiotherapi seriously, they can lead to permanent paralysis of limbs paralyzed ever.

Healing in patients with stroke varies widely. There can recover completely (100%), some are just 50% only. This recovery depends on whether or not severe stroke, the body condition of the patient, patient compliance in undergoing the process of healing, perseverance and spirit of the patient to recover, and the support and understanding of all family members of patients.

Colon Cancer

Colon cancer or colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of death from cancer and 15% of new cases of cancer is colon cancer. Cases of colon cancer today and in coming years is expected to increase. Therefore, public awareness of the threat this panyakit have increased since colon cancer is associated with the modern diet of fast food and unhealthy lifestyles.
Cancer caused by exposure to carcinogenic substances that occur due to various habits or metabolic disorders such as those found in obesity and lack of exercise. Carcinogenic ingredients that are caused by smoking, eating foods high in fat, especially animal foods, fast food, lack of rest and lack of exercise. You should know that colon cancer is the most affected by carcinogenic substances.
The exact cause of colon cancer are not known with certainty, but the food is an important factor in the occurrence of cancer. Risk factor for colon cancer is a high-fat diet, less mobile, age / aging, a history of colon polyps, family history, obesity, and smoking.
Some of the signs and symptoms you should be aware of the existence of colon cancer is the presence of blood in the stools, change in bowel habit, lower abdominal pain that is not lost, dirt form a long thin as a pencil, abnormal stool tests, anemia, and weight dropped drastically.
To detect colon cancer early, the patient should perform regular checks, especially in those at high risk and have a history of gastrointestinal disorders. Examination should have been started at the age of 30 years in Indonesia because of colon cancer more common in young people under the age of 40 years.
Approach to colon cancer involves three steps, namely primary prevention, living the life that is in the form of avoidance of anticancer carcinogenic substances. Also conducted screening and early detection so that the cancer is, when it is formed, can be found as early as possible in order to do the best possible treatment and greater life expectancy. Secondary prevention, ie after cancer treatment, taken steps to prevent cancer recurrence (relapse).
Adopting a healthy lifestyle is useful for preventing colon cancer, while early detection is necessary for the proper treatment of the patient can be done as soon as possible.

Improving Rheumatoid Arthritis Symptoms

Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease where white blood cells suddenly attack healthy tissues, specifically joints and cartilage. There are a few ways to help ease the symptoms, depending on which stage of the disease you are in. If you are in the early stages of rheumatoid arthritis there is a new disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) which has done an excellent job in controlling symptoms. It works best in the initial stages, so if you suspect you may have rheumatoid arthritis, see your doctor as soon as possible.



There are other options if you are in later stages of rheumatoid arthritis. These are also helpful if you are still in early stages. One is to use anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen. This does a great job reducing pain and inflammation. However, these have side effects including heart problems and gastrointestinal bleeding. You can also use acetaminophen for your rheumatoid arthritis, which does not have these side effects.



When symptoms are mild, moderate exercising including stretching, weight lifting, and aerobics ease rheumatoid arthritis symptoms. Be sure to rest when your joints flare up as this would just add strain to your aching joints. Stretching is important because it increases flexibility and is easy enough to do at any age. When stretching, stop when you feel mild discomfort and hold for 10 to 30 seconds. Then repeat 3 to 5 times. Weight lifting also improves flexibility as well as strength and balance. Barbells are easy, convenient, and inexpensive. Remember to stretch before lifting any weights. Start with 3 sets of 8 to 10 repetitions. If you would like you can start with no weights at all (such as going leg lifts for rheumatoid arthritis in the knees), then add weights when you can. Lift the weights slowly and evenly to not damage the cartilage.



Some other popular forms of exercise for rheumatoid arthritis are aqua therapy and Tai Chi. Be sure to find an actual therapist as they have specific exercises they do for arthritis patients. Aerobics instructors may push to far and do further damage. Tai Chi has no long term studies proving its effectiveness, but due to testimonials from patients who have taken Tai Chi, the Arthritis Foundation began offering the class. Remember to always check with your doctor before starting an exercise program.



Some other ways to relieve rheumatoid arthritis pain are to lose weight to take additional pressure off joints, eating a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, using heat or ice, and possibly using devices such as a cane, brace, or splint. There are many resources for additional information on rheumatoid arthritis including websites, flyers, periodicals, books, etc. Your doctor should be able to provide you with some reference on where to look for additional help.

There are a wide variety of herbs such as super kelp, garlic, parsley, green tea extract, horse chestnut, milk thistle and oregano oil.



Herbs are very useful in strengthening the body and in treating the diseases. However they contain active substances that can trigger side effects and interact with other herbs, supplements, or medications. So, they should be taken on the advice of an herbal practitioner.



Super Kelp

Super kelp (also known as “Sea kelp” and “Sea wrack”) is a sea herb that is one of the best sources of natural iodine and trace elements. It is also used as the principle agent in cures for obesity. In addition, it cleans out the kidneys and stimulates the thyroid and pituitary gland to produce growth hormones.



Garlic

It may also be beneficial for risk factors for heart disease, including high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes and cancer. The excess of garlic can cause upset stomach/flatulence, occupational asthma, postoperative bleeding, bloating, bad breath, body odor, and skin irritation. People with bleeding disorders should not use garlic.



Parsley

Parsley (Petroselinum) is one of the best known, diuretic and most nutritious herbs which contain large quantities of vitamins A, B, C and minerals calcium, iron, phosphorous, potassium and magnesium. It’s very useful for kidney and urinary problems and water retention. Its usefulness can be judged by the saying: “if parsley is thrown into fishponds it will heal the sick fishes therein”.



Green Tea Extract

Green tea extracts are one of the nature’s most powerful anti-oxidants. It helps prevent both heart disease and cancer by helping prevent vascular blood clotting and reducing cholesterol. It possesses antimicrobial properties that support immune-system health and protects against digestive and respiratory infections. The excess of green tea extracts may cause irritability, insomnia, heart palpitation, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headaches, and loss of appetite.

Understanding Dental Pain

Pain has always been a major issue with dentistry. The fear of pain in dentistry is so high in fact, that many people fail to go to the dentist until their condition becomes so severe that they have no other choice than to see a dentist. A majority of individuals are terrified of the dental chair, although once they are numb, they sometimes fall asleep. Although the numbing shots may be a bit painful, once they are finished – there is literally no more pain.

Most often, people will concentrate on the thought of getting the shot, which will only magnify the pain. Something that normally doesn’t hurt, can get a lot worse simply by thinking in your mind that it will be painful. In most cases, the numbing shots will work very well with one or two applications. If you are already in pain when you visit the dentist, the shots will put your mind at ease and stop the pain almost immediately.

If you have a tremendous fear of dental pain and simply cannot stand the thought of getting a shot, then you may be interested in laughing gas or IV sedation. Either of the two can help you relax before you the dentist applies numbing shots. IV sedation can either be conscious or put you out totally. Normally, IV sedation is preferred during wisdom teeth removal, as most people don’t want to hear the grinding and snapping of the teeth. It works through your veins, as the anaesthesia is inserted into your arm through a vein.

If you have chosen either laughing gas or an IV sedation, your dentist will administer either of the two before he gives you shots or goes any further. Once the medicine has taken effect, you normally won’t feel anything or remember it. Laughing gas and IV sedation can put your mind at ease, so you won’t be uncomfortable during your surgery or extractions.

Although dental pain is something that many fear, it isn’t near as bad as they may think. Most of the fear stems from not knowing, or thinking that it will hurt more than it actually does. The worst part of dental work is the numbing shots, which actually don’t hurt all that bad. Once you have been numbed, you’ll find that the pain will be gone. Dental pain isn’t near as bad you may hear or think – which is why you shouldn’t fear it.

If you need dental work or if you are having a bad toothache, you shouldn’t hesitate to get to the dentist. The dentist will explain everything he is going to do in your treatment, and ask you about other forms of sedation or medicine. Even though you’ll feel the shots, the rest of the procedures you won’t feel at all.

Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that occurs in the thin tissue that lines most of the internal organs (mesothelium). The doctor divides mesothelioma into several types based on which part of this cancer occurs. Pleural malignant mesothelioma, which occurs in the tissue lining around the lungs and is the most common type. Peritoneal mesothelioma, occurring in tissues that line the stomach. Pericardial mesothelioma, occurring in the tissue lining around the heart. Mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis, occurs in the lining around the testicles The symptoms of Mesothelioma Signs and the symptoms of mesothelioma varies based on where the cancer occurs.

It is unclear what caused the solitary fibrous tumor, but tumors are associated with asbestos contamination pollutants. Treatment for solitary fibrous tumors usually includes surgery procedures.

Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that occurs in the thin tissue that lines most of the internal organs (mesothelium). The doctor divides mesothelioma into several types based on which part of this cancer occurs.

Pleural malignant mesothelioma, which occurs in the tissue lining around the lungs and is the most common type.
Peritoneal mesothelioma, occurring in tissues that line the stomach.
Pericardial mesothelioma, occurring in the tissue lining around the heart.
Mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis, occurs in the lining around the testicles

The symptoms of Mesothelioma

Signs and the symptoms of mesothelioma varies based on where the cancer occurs.

Pleural mesothelioma, signs and symptoms include:
• Shortness of breath
• Pain when breathing
• Pain when coughing
• Pain in the lower rib
• an unusual lump in the chest under the skin layer
• Lost weight suddenly
• Dry cough

Peritoneal mesothelioma, signs and symptoms include:
• Pain in abdomen
• Swelling in the abdomen
• Changes in bowel movements, such as more frequent diarrhea or constipation
• Lump in the tissues in the abdominal area
• Lost weight suddenly

Other forms of mesothelioma
Signs and the symptoms pericardial mesothelioma and tunica vaginalis are unclear. On health , there is no complete information about this. Pericardial mesothelioma have signs and symptoms that may include difficulty breathing or chest pain. While mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis can be detected first by the enlargement of the testicles.

Benign pleural mesothelioma
Benign tumors that form in the chest sometimes called benign mesothelioma. But the term is misleading. Benign mesothelioma is not started on the same cell where the cancer is formed. And in some cases kacil, benign mesothelioma can be very aggressive. For this reason, some doctors now prefer to call this tumor as a solitary fibrous tumor.

Mesothelioma Fact

Mesothelioma is a rare form of cancer that occurs in the thin tissue that lines most of the internal organs. Asbestos is the cause of about 90 percent of all mesothelioma cases. Asbestos is a mineral found in the neighborhood. Asbestos fibers are strong and resistant to heat makes it very useful to be applied to a variety of needs. People who work in environments polluted many asbestos fibers have a greater risk of exposure mesothelioma.

When asbestos split, asbestos dust is formed. If dust is inhaled or swallowed asbestos fibers will then settle in the lungs or in the stomach and can cause irritation that causes mesothelioma.

Some people who over many years exposed to asbestos pollution can not have mesothelioma, while others the opposite. This indicates that other factors may be related, namely the hereditary factors do you have a family history of cancer in some people is a condition that increases the risk.

Risk factors that may increase the risk of mesothelioma such as:
• Exposure to asbestos fiber dust pollution
• Living with someone who works in an environment with asbestos (the asbestos fibers are attached to their clothing or skin)
• Smoking
• SV40 virus is found in many primates
• X-ray radiation
• Family history with mesothelioma

Many people who experienced mesothelioma exposed to asbestos fibers while working at places such as:
• Mine
• Factory worker
• Manufacturing of electronic components
• Construction of rail
• Shipbuilding
• Construction workers
• Mechanics

Prevention :
• Beware if you work in an environment with asbestos
• Follow standard safety regulations
• Do not use objects that contain asbestos in your neighborhood

Drinking coffee in the morning is believed many people can provide additional energy to start the activity. However, recent studies have found that coffee lovers are more prone to drug addiction.

It's not all coffee lovers using drugs. But if you already know, people who like to drink coffee addiction easier for illegal drugs such as cocaine and amphetamines.

It is based on the study of Vermont University researchers in the United States that have been published in Drug and Alcohol Dependence.

According to researchers, people who respond positively to caffeine including coffee and energy drinks, will be more easily respond to other stimulant drugs such as amphetamines and cocaine. This is the reason why coffee lovers can easily become addicted to drugs.

"People respond to the drug in very different ways. For example, a single dose of drug can produce completely opposite effects on the two men that one of them really love coffee and other hate coffee," explains Professor Stacey Sigmon of Vermont University, USA, as reported by Dailymail, Wednesday (12/10/2011).

Professor Sigmon said it was important to enhance the understanding of these differences, because this could be a key difference in susceptibility or resistance to drug abuse.

The scientists believe that one's response to d-amphetamine also show how they will respond to drugs like cocaine because it has the same effect.

This study is the first prospective study of caffeine in predicting positive subjective effects to other drugs.

"Although this data does not mean that all coffee lovers at risk for becoming addicted to cocaine, but this study suggests that individuals vary greatly in subjective and behavioral responses to psychomotor stimulants," concludes Professor Sigmon.

Understanding Ozone Layer, Materials & Effects Ozone Damaging to Your Health
Is it Ozone friends? Ozone is a gas which is naturally present in the atmosphere, the chemical elements contained in the particle ozone is three oxygen (O3). While alone in the presence of ozone present in the atmosphere the two regions. Ozone in the troposphere (about 10 s / d 16 km dr earth) unfortunately the content of this layer is only 10%. The rest are in the stratosphere (50km dr peak tropospheric) ozone content here at 90%. So sometimes called the ozone layer, because contains 03 (ozone) the most.

Articles on Environment The question then what if the ozone layer thinning?, "Depletion of the ozone layer caused increased solar ultraviolet radiation, especially UV-B is capable of reaching the surface of the earth." From the data and observations of the condition of the ozone in the atmosphere conditions from October 1980 to October 1991 the condition of the hole in the ozone layer of growing concern and growing, almost as large as the continent of Australia. New conditions had been better, according to data per - 9 September 2011 minimum 164 DU is located at 76 degrees south and 108 degrees west with an area of ​​approximately 18:12 million km2 and loss of ozone particles at 8:14 Megatron. From the satellite photos in the Arctic ozone hole is still visible loss occurred. thinning it being around Russia and Skandinivia, in addition to that also seen in Australia.
