Green Color


Morning guys....
Glad to be here,
Today I want to share about an interesting story. Do you know what? As we know that there are so many colors that occurred in this world, such as: pink, green, blue, yellow, brown, white, black, and etc. So, which one do you like? I personally really like green color. Do you know why? Because when I see this color, I feel really fresh. I have read an article about the meaning of green color. In that article, they said that Green is an important color in nature. It is the color of grass and the leaves on trees. It is also the color of most growing plants. Sometimes, the word green means young, fresh and growing. About one hundred years ago, greenhorn was a popular expression in the American west. Then, someone who has the ability to grow plants well is said to have a green thumb. The expression comes from the early nineteen hundreds.
The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. The new plants produced much larger crops. The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs.Besides, Green is also the color used to describe the powerful emotion.
Really interesting, right? In brief, we can see that green is a symbol of nature and plants. Then, plants and nature are the things that can build a fresh situation in this world. Can you imagine when there are no plants in our world? I think that our world will be so hot and warm. So, let's go green guys!

Learning English

Hi guys, I found an interesting thing about learning some English word expressions that people usually use. Here it is.

Words and Their Stories: Mouth Expressions

People use their mouths for many things. They eat, talk, shout and sing. They smile and they kiss. In the English language, there are many expressions using the word mouth. But some of them are not so nice.
The speaker might say: “I really put my foot in my mouth this time.” If this should happen, the speaker might feel down in the mouth. In other words, he might feel sad for saying the wrong thing.
Information is often spread through word of mouth. This is general communication between people, like friends talking to each other.“How did you hear about that new movie?” someone might ask. “Oh, by word of mouth.”

See guys ?!, there are many words that people usually use to express their feeling. They might use a sad expression when they feel unhappy too. On the other hand, they might say more polite words when they feel happy to express it. However, we can understand the people's feeling when they're talking to us by looking at their expressions and some words that they use when they're talking to us. Really interesting, Right? :)

there is a will, there is a way !

Hi guys...
Today, i just would like to share you about an interesting thing. Do you know what? It's about the way to be a success person in life. Maybe it's very common topic that we often hear. But, I think it still very interesting to talk.

Sometimes, people feel it's very hard to be a success person in the world. I totally disagree with this opinion, because to be a success person is not really hard if we have a strong will in our mind. Just like a common sentence, "if there is a will, there is a way". It means that if we have the determination to do something, we can always find the path or method to do it. See?! It's very simple, right?! To become a success person, we just need to believe that we can find any solution in some problems that we face! Don't force our mind to find the answer or solution that we are looking for, just let it flow as a water! Do everything that you want to do. never give up! Don't afraid with any problems that you face in your life. Consider that it's just a little part that you should pass. Then, believe that you will find the answer and solution for any problems when you try to pass it.

So, always remember this sentence: "where there's a will, there's a way" ! ^^

Warning !

Study Finds Small Increase in Brain Cancer with Excessive Mobile Phone Use

The largest study to date on the potential health effects of mobile phone use concludes that the devices do not increase the risk of brain cancer among average cell phone users. But it finds a slightly greater risk of cancer among heavy users.

Panel member Daniel Kewski, of the Center for Population Health Risk Assessment at the University of Ottawa in Canada, says the group was unable to prove that heavy mobile phone use increased the risk of cancer because the findings were based on the sketchy memories of some participants.

Otis Brawley, chief medical and scientific officer of the American Cancer Society, says there is little evidence that even heavy cell phone use causes a significant increase in brain cancer. And if it did, says Brawley, the problem would be dwarfed by other more serious public health concerns.

From the information above, we can see that mobile phone is one of the things that can be a bad influence for us. Because if we use mobile phone too long, it will be a risk of cancer. Now, we know that it will not good if we use mobile phone too long. So, now let's we change our bad habit. What i will suggest here is don't use mobile phone too long, just use it for our need.

Hi guys...
Today, I have an interesting issue. Here it is.


Saving the World, One Patch at a Time

Climate quilt gives children a voice in fighting for the environment

The world's children are joining the fight against climate change. And they're doing it one fabric swatch at a time through an international initiative called the Climate Quilt Campaign, which encourages young people everywhere to help protect the environment.

Using recycled materials, children in the United States, Australia, China, New Zealand, Britain, the Philippines, South Africa and many other countries, designed "pledge patches," depicting how they promised to work on environmental stewardship. Last month, thousands of patches arrived in a small town in Pennsylvania where volunteers gathered to sew them together into a huge quilt.

There are so many ways that we can do in giving our contribution to fight climate change. Come on guys, keep your spirit guys to save our world ! :D

Getting New Knowledge!

Hallo friends,
I have a good article for us. Let's we see! :D


Rice Could Help Prevent Heart Attacks

People worried about heart attacks get a lot of advice about what to eat: less fat; more fruits; more vegetables. New research suggests the most important thing they can do may be to simply eat more rice.

It's hard to imagine needing justification to eat rice — for much of the world, it's the major component of every meal. But Japanese researcher Satoru Eguchi says in Japan, rice has been losing popularity to other more Westernized staples.

Studies have shown the heart-healthy value of fish, but there is no equivalent research into the benefits of rice. It's known that rice has a lot of fiber and some vitamins, and Eguchi and his colleagues at Temple University in Philadelphia were convinced there was even more to it.

What they discovered is that there's a component in rice that can actually prevent heart attacks.

It works by inhibiting a hormone called angiotensin II. The hormone can cause blood vessels to narrow and excess sodium to accumulate in the blood. These are factors that lead to cardiovascular diseases like high blood pressure and hardening of arteries.
There are a number of medications available that block angiotensin. Eguchi says his research shows you may be able to get the same benefits from eating rice.

From the text above, we can see that rice has many benefits for us. Research found that rice contains a lot of fiber and some vitamins, and it could help prevent heart attacks. so, don't worry again to consume much more rice, because there are many benefits from it that we can get.

Let's Do It!

Hello guys,
Today, I have one news from our country. It's about our environment. Let's we see.

One Billion Trees

The Indonesian Government launched a more massive tree planting program called “One Billion Indonesian Trees for the World” to help replenish our forests. The new program was kicked off following successes in previous tree planting programs since 2007. The government has allocated a budget for the purchase of 36 million seedlings this year and hopes to get 300 million more from the private sector, state companies, NGOs, regional governments ans other donors.

Additional 320 million seedlings are expected from community and rural forest programs, 300 million from forest and river basin rehabilitation programs, and 50 million from people’s forest partnership program. The “One Billion Indoensian trees for the World” program is also aimed at improving the welfare of the people especially those living near forest areas. Not only does the program aim to urge reforestation but hopes the trees will contribute to the reduction of climate change and prevent landslides.

I think it is very good program from Indonesian Government. We can see that Indonesian Government also care with our environment. As an Indonesian, I also believe that we can also contribute to save our nation and help them to success the program. We can start from the little thing,right? Now, let's green our Indonesia and save our nation. ^^
