House of Snail


Long ago, the snails did not take her anywhere ... The first time the snails living in an abandoned bird's nest the parent birds in the trees.

The night was warm and the day was cool because the leaves of trees blocking the sunlight that falls right into the nest where the snails live. But when the rain season comes, the leaves can no longer deter rainwater that falls, .. snails exposed to wet and cold rain.

Then the snails moved into the existing holes in the trunk, if it is hot, the snails are well protected, even if it rains, the snails will not get wet and cold. Looks like I found a suitable home for me, muttered a snail in the liver.

But on a sunny day, came the woodpecker,, tock .. tock ... tock ... keep woodpeckers peck trees where the cochlea, the snail became distracted and unable to sleep,

Irritated by the liver, snails down from the tree hole and find a place to live next. Snails found a hole in the ground, it seems warm when night comes, thought snails. Snails clean the hole and decided to stay in it, but when night comes, the rats come from all directions damaging dig the cochlea. What can I say, slugs leave the pit to find a new home ....

Snails move on to the beach full of rocks. Sidelines of the rock could be my house! snail cheered, I can take refuge from the heat of the sun and rain, there will be no woodpecker would peck at this rock, and the rats will not be able to dig a hole to penetrate into this stone.

Snails can rest in peace, but when high tides and rising up into the rocks, snails were swept along by the waves come. Again snails should go find a new home. When walking away from the beach, found an empty shell of a snail, beautiful shape and very light ....

Due to fatigue and cold, into the snails shells, warm and comfortable and sleep curled up in it.

When morning came, he realized he had found a slug of the best home for him. This shell is perfect for him. I do not need to hurry home if it rains, I will not overheat again, no one will bother me, .... I'll bring this home with me wherever I go.

The Rich People Arrogant


A very stingy gold buried secretly in a place kept secret in the garden. Every day he went to the place where he buried his gold, dug it up and count them back one by one to ensure that no gold is lost. He very often did that so that a thief is watching him, can guess what is hidden by the Miser, and one night, a thief secretly dig up the treasure and took him away.
When the Miser realize the loss of his property, he became very sad and desperate. He was moaning, pulling at her hair.
A nomadic people passing by in the place heard her crying and asked what had happened.
"My gold! Oh .. my gold!" mr said, "someone has robbed me!"
"Your gold! In the hole? Why do you put it there? Why do not you keep the gold in the house where you can easily retrieve it when you want to buy something?"
"Buying something?" mr. shouted angrily. "I will not buy anything with gold. I never even think to buy something with gold." he shouted again angrily.
Nomad then took a large stone and threw it into the hole that has been empty treasure it.
"Then," he said again, "cap and bury the stone, it is equal to the lost treasure!"
Treasure we have is worth a utility asset.

Process Formation of the Rainbow


the sun through the water droplet, the light is bent in such a way that makes the colors that exist in a separate light. Each color is deflected at different angles, and the color red is the color most recent is bent, while purple is the most first.
originated from sunlight, sunlight is the light that consists of several colors or often called polychromatic. Light that can be captured by the human eye without the tools with just seven colors: red, orange, yellow, indigo, and violet. These colors are also called visible light.
In light of red and purple why there are always above and below the pelanggi?
This is because red light is part of the visible light spectrum that has the lowest frequency or the longest wavelength of visible light when compared to the other. And violet light has the highest frequencies and shortest wavelengths. So that between red and purple are not met, the red color in the end of the rainbow and the color purple on the bottom of the rainbow.

A DOG AND HIS SHADOW


A dog gets a bone of man, came running back to his home as quickly as possible with a happy heart. When he passed a very small bridge, he looked down and saw her own reflection from the water under the bridge. This greedy dog ​​thinks he's seen another dog taked a bone bigger than hers.
When he stops to think, he would know that it was his shadow. But the dog did not think nothing of it and even dropped the bone he was taked and jumped into the river. The greedy dog ​​finally with great difficulty swam to the riverbank. When he arrived safely on the river, he just stood pensive and sad because they carry even bone is lost, he later regretted what happened and realize how stupid he was.
It would be foolish to have the greedy nature.

Global Warming


I want to start by thanking the members of your board for sponsoring this panel discussion on global warming – a subject that deserves far more of our attention than it usually gets. And to thank them for inviting me to participate. I’m no Al Gore, but the subject is one I feel passionately about, and I am
always happy to be a part of any forum that raises our collective awareness about the seriousness of the issue.
 Officially, this is to be a panel discussion of the quote Global Warming Controversy unquote. Although I appreciate the value of such a provocative title in promoting attendance, it is somewhat misleading – in my opinion – and the main purpose of my opening remarks will be to try and convince you that there is, in fact, no controversy. The perception that there is a controversy is perpetuated mainly by the popular media whose striving to appear even-handed means they continue to print contrary opinions by increasingly marginalized scientists, thereby perpetuating the myth that there is an ongoing controversy about the facts and causes of global warming. This situation is worsened because the people who do have the facts – the scientists – don’t seem to know how to communicate to the public, and the special interest groups who excel at swaying public opinion aren’t doing so with the facts.
Whatever may have been true thirty years ago, today there is no scientific debate about the reality of – or the causes of – global warming. None. In fact, in a study published in prestigious journal Science, scientist Naomi Oreskes analyzed all papers that have been published in peer-reviewed scientific journals with the key word “global climate change” over the decade ending in 2003 and found that none – not a single one – argued against the fact of “anthropogenic global climate change.” There are a few scientists and pseudoscientific organizations still dithering about lack of evidence, but the scientific community is overwhelmingly in agreement that the evidence for human-induced global warming is clear and persuasive.
 I want to briefly go over the evidence just so we can put that to bed and move on to the debate the country should be having, namely, what can we do about it. So what is global warming and how do we know it’s happening? The term global warming is generally used to indicate a rise in the average temperature of the planet’s surface, and there are several direct indicators that a major warming trend is in progress. The temperature record shows, for example, that the top 10 hottest years on record occurred since 1989. The record also shows that the average temperature has risen about one degree Fahrenheit in the last century alone, and that the temperature is rising even more rapidly at the two poles – there the average temperatures have risen to five

SANDAL KULIT SANG RAJA

Seorang Maharaja akan berkeliling negri untuk melihat keadaan rakyatnya. Ia memutuskan untuk berjalan kaki saja. Baru beberapa meter berjalan diluar istana, kakinya terluka karena terantuk batu. Ia berfikir, “ ternyata jalan-jalan di negriku ini jelek sekali. Aku harus memperbaikinya “.
Maharaja lalu memanggil seluruh menteri istana. Ia memerintahkan untuk melapisi seluruh jalan-jalan di negerinya dengan kulit sapi yang terbaik. Segera saja para menteri istana melakukan persiapan-persiapan, Mereka mengumpulkan sapi-sapi dari seluruh negeri.
Di tengah-tengah kesibukan yang luar biasa itu, datanglah seorang pertapa menghadap Maharaja. Ia berkata kepada Maharaja, “ wahai paduka mengapa paduka hendak membunuh sekian banyak sapi untuk melapisi jalan-jalan di negeri ini, padahal sesungguhnya yang paduka butuhkan hanyalah dua potong kulit sapi untuk melapisi telapak kaki paduka saja “.Karena sejak itulah dunia menemukan kulit pelapis telapak kaki yang kita sebut “ Sendal “.
            Ada pelajaran yang berharga dari cerita itu. Untuk membuat dunia menjadi tempat yang nyaman. Untuk hidup kadang kala kita harus mengubah cara pandang kita, hati kita, dan diri kita sendiri, dan dengan jalan mengubah dunia itu.
            Karena kita sering kali keliru dalam menafsirkan dunia. Dunia dalam pikiran kita, kadang hanyalah dalam bentuk personal. Dunia kita artikan sebagai milik kita sendiri, yang pemainnya adalah kita sendiri, tak ada orang lain yang terlibat disana, sebab sering kali dalam pandangan kita dunia adalah bayangan dari dalam diri kita sendiri.
            Ya, memang jalan kehidupan yang kita tempati masih terjal dan berbatu. Manakah yang kita pilih, melapisi jalan tersebut dengan primadani berbulu agar kita tak pernah merasakan sakit, atau melapisi hati kita dengan  kulit pelapis yaitu iman, pengharapan, dan kasih agar kita dapat berjalan melalui jalan-jalan itu.
