Employees who criticize the old ways of doing things and want to try out new ideas are disliked both by their colleagues and by their bosses Comments like ‘They wouldn’t listen to me’ or ‘I kept presenting new product ideas, only to hear nothing’ are typical of many a manager who become an entrepreneur. All of this causes frustration, which can quickly lead t boredom. Often, middle managers start to think; ‘Only another 30 more years of working may way to retirement At this point, they want to find a way out.

    They need to get away from a job that is no longer attractive. So they decide to set up on their own. But the need something else, too: the challenge of taking risks. They are like people who climb a mountain by the most dangerous route. Entrepreneurial types need to try out new things without knowing whether they will succeed o fail. They also want to prove that they can make it without big company support.

    As well as motivation, most successful entrepreneurs have a number of personal characteristics in common The first is self-confidence, the feeling of certainty that you have got the skills, knowledge and energy to build u; your own business. There is also stubbornness, the determination to prove to the boss who rejected your ideas the they were good ideas which can*be made to work.

    Continued progress in advanced technology is not necessary. Already the technical progress in our world ha caused severe pollution in the air and in the water. Although the technical progress in previous years has been helpful recent technology has significantly increased pollution. Another reason to stop technical progress is that many inventions which were developed for good causes are now also used for powerful weapons or have been found to have serious side effects. For example, pesticide put inside particle boards to prevent termites has now been found to be toxic to human life. Technology does not always bring good effects; for example, computers do much work faster than man. but then man loses his job to a machine. Because no man can guarantee that technology will have only good effects and will be used only for the benefit of man, we should delay the continued development of technology.

    The first ancient DNA sequences to be gathered-34000 base pairs from a 2400-years-old
    egyptian mummy-were a proof of principle. A full genome sequence would be more far more
    informative-perhaps explaining what killed King Tut, for instance. At present, Inuk’s is the only
    published ancient human genome. However, a team led by Svante Paabo and Green at the Max
    Planck Institute for Evolutory Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany will soon publish the complete
    genome sequence combined together from several Neanderthals, from between 38,000 and
    70,000 years ago.

    Neanderthals are not the only hominids whose genomes could be sequenced, says Willerslev.
    Homo erectus, a species that emerged in Africa about 2 million years ago, survived in East Asia until
    less than 100.000 years ago. If well preserved bones from Spain belonging to Homo heidelbergensis,

    genomes ever materialize- and that’s a big if- they branched off. If the genetic information is good
    enough, it may tell us something about the nature of past people-possibly even what they looked
    like. Ancient human genomes could give us insights into the evoluation of our species, explaining
    when genes involved in disease and higher cognitive skill emerged.

    But DNA is not forever. As it ages, its long strands shred into ever smaller pieces. Eventually
    they become small to reassemble, and all information is lost. “There seems to be a time horizon of
    100.000 year so under most preservation conditions during which intact DNA survives,” Green says.

    John Apollos is losing weight the old-fashioned way- by eating less. A whole lot less. As a volunteer in the two year Comprehensive Assessment of Long-Term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy (CALERIE) study at Tufts University in Boston, Apollos has lowered his daily calorie intake 25% over the past eight months. The fat, not surprisingly, has melted away; the 52-years-old physical trainer has lost more than 11 kg since the study began and down to his school weight.

    Yet, that’s not the real reason Apollos and the other participants in the program are eating only three quarters of what they used to. The researchers running the multicenter CALERIE study are trying to determine whether restricting food intake can slow the aging process and extend our life span. “I feel better and lighter and healthier,” says Apollos. “But if it could help you live longer, that would be pretty amazing,” The idea is counterintuitive: If we eat to live, how can starving ourselves add years to our lives? Yet, decades of calories restriction studies involving organism ranging from microscopic yeast to rats have shown just that, extending the life spans of the semi starved as much as 50%. Last July a long-term study let by the researchers at the University of Winconsin nudged the implications of this a bit closer to our species, finding that calorie restriction seemed to extend the lives of human like rhesus monkey as well. The hungry primates fell victim to diabetes, heart and brain disease and cancer much less frequently than their well-fed counterparts did.

    However, there may be more than just the absence of disease operating here. Anytime you go on diet, after all, you stand a good chance of lowering your blood pressure, cholesterol level and risk of diabetes and other health woes. All that can translate into extra years. With calorie restriction, usually defined as a diet with 25% to 30% fewer calories than normal but still containing essential nutrients, something else appears to be at work to extend longevity.

    Furtur research, conducted by Dean Mobbs, then at Stanford University in California, uncovered a second point of activity in brain’s limbic system associated with dopamine release and reward processing-which may explain the pleasure felt once you “get” a joke. Examining on particular part of the limbic system-the ventral striatum-was especially revealing, as its level of activity corresponded with the perceived funniness of a joke. “It’s the same region that is involved in many different types of reward, from drugs, to sex and our favourite music,” says Mobbs, now at the MRC Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit in Cambridge, UK. “Humour thus taps into basic reward systems that are important of our survival”.

    Yet humor a far more multifaceted process than primeval pleasure like food. In addition the two core processes of getting the joke and feeling good about it, jokes also active regions of the frontal and cingulated cortex, which are linked with association information, learning and decision-making. The team also found presenting humans and, in a less developed form, great apes. Indeed, the fact that these regions are involved suggest that humour is an advanced ability which may have only evolved in early human, says Watson, who conducted the research.

    No two brains are the same, however, and how these differences are reflected in our sense of humour is the subject of much research. Men and women, for example, seem to process jokes slightly differently. Although both sexes laugh at roughly the same number of jokes, women show greater activity in the left prefrontal cortex than men. “This suggest a greater degree of executive processing and language-based decoding,” says Mobbs. As result, women take significantly much longers than men to decide whether they find something funny, though that does not seem to spoil their enjoyment of the joke. Indeed, women show greater response in the limbic system than men, suggesting they feel a greater sense of reward.

Dalam budaya masyarakat Indonesia yang agraris, masyarakat pada zaman dahulu pernah punya kebiasaan buang hajat di alam terbuka, seperti sungai, empang, hutan, atau semak belukar di belakang rumah, tanpa harus membersihkannya. Kotoran dibiarkan saja karena bisa langsung diurai organisme dalam tanah, tumbuhan, atau air. Di kota orang harus buang hajat di toilet, tetapi kebiasaan lama masih dibawa. Buktinya, masih banyak pengunjung toilet umum pergi begitu saja tanpa menyiram atau membersihkan peturasannya.

    Orang Indonesia yang gemar melancong ke luar negeri mungkin lebih kenal Singapura atau Eropadaripada daerah dan budaya negeri sendiri. Penelitian Departemen Kebudayaan dan Pariwisata tahun2004 mengungkapkan bahwa mereka yang bepergian ke mancanegara rata-rata baru pernahmengunjungi tiga dari 33 provinsi di Tanah Air.

    Selain wisatawan asing, turis lokal sebetulnya dapat menjadi pasar pariwisata. Persoalannya adalah bahwa faktor yang menarik bagi mereka untuk berwisata di negeri sendiri sangat lemah. Objek wisata di luar Bali, misalnya, rata-rata kurang terawat karena keterbatasan dana. Menjangkau lokasinya pun tak mudah karena sarana transportasi terbatas. Berbagai retribusi memberatkan pengusaha wisata untuk meningkatkan mutu pelayanan. Dukungan pemerintah daerah pada usaha kepariwisataan pun masih kurang.

    Pada tahun 2000, melalui 13 pintu keberangkatan, tercatat 2,2 juta orang Indonesia yang berkunjung ke negeri asing. Empat tahun kemudian melonjak menjadi 3,9 juta. Hingga November 2005, sudah 3,7 juta orang melancong ke negara lain.

    Menurut Sekjen Asosiasi Biro Perjalanan dan Wisata (ASITA), objek wisata di negeri orang menyajikan atraksi menarik pada saat pergantian tahun. Bulan Juni dan Juli, masa libur sekolah, juga waktu favorit warga Indonesia untuk berlibur ke luar negeri. Kelompok pelancong ke luar negeri terbesar ini adalah penduduk berumur 25 hingga 34 tahun, kelompok yang berada di puncak produktivitas. Mereka pada umumnya berupa pasangan muda, pengantin baru, keluarga dengan anak usia di bawah lima tahun, dan dari kelas ekonomi menengah ke atas. Beban finansial yang belum begitu berat memungkinkan mereka dapat menyisihkan biaya berlibur.

    The most common causes of tsunamis are underwater earthquakes. To understand you must first understand plate tectonics. The theory of plate tectonics suggests that the lithosphere, or top layer of the Earth, is made up of a series of huge plates. These plates make up the continents and seafloor. They rest on an underlying viscous layer called the asthenosphere.

    Think of pie cut into eight slices. The pie crust would be the lithosphere and the hot, sticky pie filling underneath would be the asthenosphere. On the earth, this plates are constantly in motion, moving along each other at a speed of 1 to 2 inches (2.5-5 cm) per year. The movement occurs most dramatically along fault lines (where the pie is cut). These motions are capable of producing earthquakes and volcanism, which, when they occur at the bottom of the ocean, are two possible sources of tsunamis.

    When two plates come into contact at a region known as a plate boundary, a heavier plate can slip under a lighter one. This is called subduction. Underwater subduction often leaves enormous “handprints” in the form of deep ocean trenches along the seafloor. In some cases of subduction, part of the seafloor connected to the lighter plate may “snap up” suddenly due to pressure from the sinking plate. This results in an earthquake. The focus of the earthquake is the point within the Earth where the rupture first occurs, rock break  and the first seismic waves are generated. The epicenter is the point on the seafloor directly above the focus.

    When this piece of the plate snaps up and sends tons of rock shooting upward with tremendous force, the energy of that farce is transferred to the water. The energy pushes the water upward above normal sea level. This is birth of a tsunami. The earthquake that generated the December 26, 2004 tsunami in the Indian Ocean was a 9.0 on the Richter scale – one of the biggest in recorded history.

    Indentifying ingredients in old paintings can help curators decide how best to maintain, display and restore them. The 17th-century Dutch artis, Rembrandt, was found to use wheat, according to new advanced analysis of two of his works. It is the first study to identify wheat starch in any of Rembrandt‟s work, even though scientists have perfomed numerous analyses on more than 150 of his.

    In Rembrandt‟s time, artists mixed their own paints, which they then spread onto canvas in layers. Often, individual layers of the same piece of art contained different binding agents, pigments, varnishes and other ingredients. Besides color, each layer was mixed to just the right level of thickness, glossines, texture, evenness on the surface, drying time and more.

    However, paint layers are though to analyze because they are spread so incredibly thin. The  thinnes ones rise just a thousandth of a millimeter above the layer below them. Using a variety of chemical and physical analytical methods, along with old written records, scientists have been able to identify pigments and other inorganic materials in many ancient paintings.

    For the new study, the scientist used some of the most high-tech equipment around to look at the “Portrait of Nicolaes Van Bambeeck,” which Rembrandt van Rijn painted in 1641. First they  took a cross-section from a miniscule section of the painting. Then they used a variety of methods to probe the layers, including a technique called Time of Fly  Secondary Ion Mass spectrometry (To F SIMS). This technique involves sending a focused, high-energy beam of ions at the layered sample, then observing the ions that bounce back. By analyzing the energy and chemical nature of the ejected ions, scientists can deduce detailed information about the types of elements and chemical bonds held within.

    For the second greyish layer of paint on the “Portrait of Nicolaes van Bambeeck,” the scan showed, Rembrandt mixed oil and a small amount of lead with wheat flour. It‟s not clear yet whether Rembrandt used wheat earlier or continued to use ingredient after painting the “Portrait of Nicolaed van Bambeeck,” who was a rich wool merchant. But the researchers also found wheat in the “Portrait of Agatha Bas,” the merchant‟s wife.

This technique involves sending a focused, high-energy beam of ions at the layered sample, then observing the ions that bounce back. By analyzing the energy and chemical nature of the ejected ions, scientists can deduce detailed information about the types of elements and chemical bonds held within.

    For the second greyish layer of paint on the “Portrait of Nicolaes van Bambeeck,” the scan showed, Rembrandt mixed oil and a small amount of lead with wheat flour. It‟s not clear yet whether Rembrandt used wheat earlier or continued to use ingredient after painting the “Portrait of Nicolaed van Bambeeck,” who was a rich wool merchant. But the researchers also found wheat in the “Portrait of Agatha Bas,” the merchant‟s wife.

    Indentifying ingredients in old paintings can help curators decide how best to maintain, display and restore them. The 17th-century Dutch artis, Rembrandt, was found to use wheat, according to new advanced analysis of two of his works. It is the first study to identify wheat starch in any of Rembrandt‟s work, even though scientists have perfomed numerous analyses on more than 150 of his.

    In Rembrandt‟s time, artists mixed their own paints, which they then spread onto canvas in layers. Often, individual layers of the same piece of art contained different binding agents, pigments, varnishes and other ingredients. Besides color, each layer was mixed to just the right level of thickness, glossines, texture, evenness on the surface, drying time and more.

    However, paint layers are though to analyze because they are spread so incredibly thin. The  thinnes ones rise just a thousandth of a millimeter above the layer below them. Using a variety of chemical and physical analytical methods, along with old written records, scientists have been able to identify pigments and other inorganic materials in many ancient paintings.

    For the new study, the scientist used some of the most high-tech equipment around to look at the “Portrait of Nicolaes Van Bambeeck,” which Rembrandt van Rijn painted in 1641. First they  took a cross-section from a miniscule section of the painting. Then they used a variety of methods to probe the layers, including a technique called Time of Fly  Secondary Ion Mass spectrometry (To F SIMS). This technique involves sending a focused, high-energy beam of ions at the layered sample, then observing the ions that bounce back.

    Soaring carbon emissions from a meat-hungry developing world could be cut back substantially by improving animal breeds and feed, according to a study. It is estimated that livestock farming  contributes 18-51 per cent of the world‟s greenhouse gas emissions. Demand for livestock products is predicted to double by 2050 as a result of growing populations, urbanization, and better income in the developing world, which will cause  emissions to rise

    The study, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science, suggest that 12 per cent of total livestock-related emissions in 2030 could easily be shortened with simple  improvements in production. These include: switching to more nutritious pasture grasses; supplenting livestock diets based on grass with small amounts of crop residues or grains; restoring degraded grazing lands; growing trees that trap  carbon while producing leaves that livestock could eat; and adopting more productive breeds.

    “Organizations from the West, especially the World Watch Institute, have continued to blame livestock-keeping for being one of the major  polluters of the world, yet livestock keeping‟s possitives by far outweigh the negative,” said Mario Herrero, co-author of the paper and a senior scientist at International Livestock Research Institute.

    Livestock farmers in developing countries have a relatively small environmental footprint and their animals provide them with food, income and transport for their crops, said John Byron. “What  these farmers need are technological options and economic incentives that help them intensify their production in sustainable ways,” he added.

    Steinfeld, coordinator of the Livestock, Environment and Development Initiative at the  Food and Agriculture Organization, said: “If one were able to connect this to smallholder development by making poor farmers benefit through the possibility of carbon offsets and carbon markets that would indeed create a win-win  situation where one would have socioeconomic benefits, targeting poor people, while reducing the carbon „hoofprints‟ i.e the carbon footprint of livestock”.

    Improving livestock production should be done  to improve livehoods and not just for climate reasons, said Kirtana Chandrasekaran, food campaigner for Friends of the Earth. She added that intensive agriculture also contributes to biodiversity loss so “it‟s very dangerous” just to  look at lowering emissions “when there‟s a whole host of other factor affecting improvement in livestock farming”.
