Chinese Group Demands

That Japanese Emperor

Return Ancient Artefact

By Ankit Panda

February 13, 2016

Adding to a growing list of diplomatic disputes between China and Japan, a Chinese group is demanding that Japan’s emperor return a 1.300-year-old artefact that was allegedly looted by Japanese Soldier in The 1930s. According to a Xinbua report, the artefact in question in the Honglujing Stele, originally from “north eastern China.” The request has was made in letter addressed to Emperor Akihito of Japan by Japan by China Federation of Demanding Compensation from Japan (CFDC) via Japan’s embassy in China. The request has been prominently reported by both China’s domestic and international media outlets, suggesting that part of the intent is to shame Japan for its actions during the first half of the 20^th century.

From Xinhua’s report, it is unclear the extent to which the Chinese government is involved in the request for the return on the artefact. The China Federation of Demanding Compensation from Japan (CFDC) is a civic group, independent of the government. According to Cinhua, “this is the first time a Chinese civic group has asked the Japanese imperial family for the return of a looted Chinese relic. “The group” seeks compensation for personal, material and spiritual damaga caused by Japanese militarism during the country’s aggression against China in the 20^th century.

“…, a Chinese Group is demanding that Japan emperor return a 1.300-year-old artefact that was allegedly looted by Japanese soldiers in the 1930s.” (Paragraph 1)

Democracy is a form of government. The word democracy means ruled by the people. Abraham Abraham Lincoln described such self-government as government of the people, by the people, for the people.

The citizen of a democracy take part in the government either directly  or indirectly. In direct, or pure democracy, the people meet in one place to make the laws for their community.

Most modern democracy is representative democracy. In large communities-cities, states, provinces, or countries - it is impossible for all the people to meet as a group. Instead, they elect certain number of their fellow citizens to represent them in making decisions about laws and other matters that affect the people. An assembly of representatives may be called a council, a legislature, a parliament, or a congress. A government ruled by the people through their freely elected representatives is sometimes called a republican government.

The democratic way of live recognizes the equality and dignity of all persons regardless of race, religion, sex, or social standing. It holds that everyone is equal in court trials and other legal matters. It provides freedom of speech, freedom of the press, and freedom of religion.

Almost all government claim to be democratic, but many are actually totalitarian government have almost control over lives of the people.

A democratic government is a government consisting of representatives who are …

Gerhana bulan muncul apabila bulan sedang beroposisi dengan matahari. Karena kemiringan bidang orbit bulan terhadap bidang ekliptika sebesar 5⁰, tidak setiap oposisi bulan dengan matahari akan mengakibatkan terjadinya gerhana bulan. Perpotongan bidang orbit bulan dengan bidang ekliptika akan memunculkan 2 titik potong yang disebut node, yaitu titik tempat bulan memotong bidang ekliptika. Gerhana bulan ini akan terjadi saat bulan berposisi pada node tersebut. Bulan membutuhkan waktu 29,53 hari untuk bergerak dari satu titik oposisi ke titik oposisi lainnya. Seharusnya, jika terjadi gerhana bulan akan diikuti dengan gerhana matahari dan kedua node tersebut terletak pada garis yang menghubungkan antara matahari dengan bumi.

EDITORIAL: NEWS

                The Australian. The growing importance of Australia’s relationship with china, our Largest trading partner, has long been appreciated by this newspaper. Two-way trade with China increased by 16.5 percent last financial year to $64 billion. More than 100,000 Chinese are studying in Australia and by 2005, a million Chinese tourists a year will be holidaying here.

The bilateral relationship is central to our national interest and holds the key to our future prosperity. Which is all the more reason why the government dealings with Chinese officials and business leaders must be open and transparent. The style of some of the Rudd government’s dealings with China have not left that impression.

After insisting for most of Thursday that he had exchanged only small Christmas and birthday gifts with family friend helen Liu, Defense Minister Joel Fitzgibbon remembered late in the day that the Chinese business-woman had paid for him to travel to Beijing and Shanghai in December 2002 and to Shanghai in April 2005. The minister apologized and amended the parliamentary register. He also rents his Canberra residence from Liu and defense officials allegedly found her banking details on his office IT system.

HOUSE HUSBANDS’ HEART RISK

Most people assume that life in the rat race is bad for your health. But reversing yhe traditional gender roles, being a house husband is a stressful business, according to the latest research by American scientists. By giving up their jobs in order to become house husbands, men increase their risk of heart attack or coronary disease by as much as 82%, according to research based on 10 year study of 2.500 people in Boston, USA.

According to Dr. Elaine Eaker, They key to the problem is that some men became stressed about performing a role not traditionally assign to them by society. Men who stay at home tend not to have the same levels of support from friends and family as women do the same.

Jack O’Sullivan, of the Father’s Direct group, we quoted as saying: “Society expects the main career should be a woman and society is structured around that. Day care is called mather and toddler groups and some men feel awkward about belonging to those groups.

Professor Gary Cooper, apsychologist at the University of Mancherster, said many men tend to underestimate the task of caring for a family. He said ‘Most men think being a house husband involves putting on a bit of washing, taking the kids to school and then putting their feet up with a cup of coffee.

They are crazy. Most men are not used to performing a variety of activities simultaneously-the kind of multi-tasking which is second nature to most women.”

It is estimated that men have taken over the main homemaker’s role in one in seven homes, as increasing numbers of women become the main breadwinner. The study also found that women in high-powered jobs were more likely to develop heart disease than those in more junior positions.

Don’t have time for an intensive skin care? You can still pamper yourself by doing the basics. Good skin care and healthy lifestyle choices can help delaying the natural aging process and prevent various skin problems. Get started with these five no-non-sense tips.

1. Protect yourself from the sun. One of the most important ways to take care of your skin is to protect it from the sun. A lifetime of sun exposure can cause wrinkles, age spots and other skin problems, as well as increase the risk of skin cancer.
2. Don’t smoke. Smoking makes your skin look older and contributes to wrinkles. It narrows the tiny blood vessels in the outermost layers of skin, which decreases blood flow. It also his depletes oxygen and nutrients of the skin
3. Treat your skin gently. Limiting your bath-time will keep your skin gentle. Hot water and long showers remove oils from yours skin. Use warm ratcher than hot water. To protect and lubricate your skin, apply shaving cream, lotion, or gel before shaving.
4. Eat healthy diet. A healthy diet can help you look and feel good. Eat plenty of fruits, vegetables, whole grains and lean protein. Some research suggest that a rich diet in vitamin C and low in unhealthy fat might promote younger looking skin.
5. Manage stress. Uncontrolled stress can make your skin more sensitive and trigger acne breakouts and other skin problems. To encourage healthy skin and a healthy state of mind, take some streps to manage your stress, set reasonable limits, scale back your to-do list, and make time to do the things you enjoy.

How Chocolate is Made

                Have we wondered howwe get chocolate from? Well this time we will enter the amazing world of chocolate so we can understand exactly how chocolate is made

Chocolate is taken from a tree called cacao tree. This tree grows in equatorial regions, especially in places such as South America, Africa, and Indonesia. The cacao tree produces a fruit about the size of a small pineapple. Inside the fruits are the tree’s seeds. They are also known as coco beans.

Next, the beans are fermented for about a week, dried in the sun. After that they are shipped to the chocolate maker. The chocolate makers work by roasting the the beans to bring out the flavour. The beans from different qualities and flavour. So They are often sorted and blended to produce a distinctive mix.

The next process is winnowing. The roasted beans are winnowed to remove the meat nib of cacao bean from its shell. Then the nibs are blended. The blended nibs are grinds to make liquid. The liquid is called chocolate liquor. It tastes bitter.

All seeds contain some amount of fat and cacao beans are not different. However, cacao beans are half fat. It is pure bitter chocolate.

Why are the coco beans roasted?

Animal testing is a deeply divided subject, with a great deal of passion, emotion, and ideas on both sides regarding the ethic of the practice. Some individuals support animal testing and some others oppose its use.

The scientific community is strongly in favour in animal testing. The medical break throughs that have occurred as a results of animal testing are considered risen enough to continue the practice, with the aim of reducing human suffering and saving human lives.

Animal testing aids researchers in finding drugs and treatments to improve health and medicine. Many medical treatments have been made possible by animal testing, including cancer and HIV drugs, insulin, antibiotics, vaccines, and many more. Animal testing also helps to ensure the safety of drugs and many other substances humans use or are exposed to regularly. Scientists typically use animals for testing purpose, because they are considered similar to humans.

The contra of the issue of animal testing that countless animals are experimented on and then killed after their use. Other are injured and will still live the rest of their lives in captivity. Many of these animals received tests for subtances that will never actually be used for public consumption and use. Animal testing generally costs an enormous amount of money as the animals must be fed, housed, cared for, and treated with drugs or experimental substances. The Price of the animal themselves must also be factored into equation.

As a results of the controversy, regulations and laws should be enforced. At the very least, animal suffering should be minimized and that animals should be respected during their care. If animal testing is to continue, animals must be abused.

SNAKES

                Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the same group as lizards (the scale group, Squadmata) but from a sub-group of their own (Serpentes).

Snakes have two legs but a long time a go they had claws to help them slither along. Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scale which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin is hard and glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.

Snakes often sun bathe on rocks in the warm weather. This is because snakes are cold-blooded, they need the sun’s warmth to heat their bodies up.

Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in trees, some live in water, but, most live on the ground in deserted rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass and in old logs.

A snake’s diet usually consists of frogs, lizards, and mice and other snakes. The anaconda can eat small crocodiles and even bears. Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs. Some snakes are protected by scaring their enemies away like the Cobra. The flying snakes glide away from danger. Their ribs spread spart apart and the skin stretches out. Its technique is just like the sugar gliders.

How do flying snakes protect themselves?

There are many arguments in favor of a boarding school education. Nevertheles, the boarding school is not always the best education institution for everyone.

At an early age interacting and communicating with people is very important for a child’s personal life and can be especially helpful for his/her future. In a boarding school, shy children can take advantage of interaction through communal activities. The boarding school also offers a great variety of activities such as arts, sports, and music that allow children to demonstrate and develop specialized skills in their free time.

Furthermore, the structured way of life and strict rules at the boarding school may helps students to get used to a well ordered way of life. The manners and social skills will help them to become more responsible and confident, and to develop their talents in leadership. Profesionally trained teachers and educators in the boarding school can offer excellent education without the parent’s constan supervision.

In spite of these good points, it is not advisable to send a child to a boarding school if he/she is a dependent learner. A boarding school usually demands that student learn independently. In addition, the boarding school should not be seen as a measure to solve inappropriate behaviour or unsatisfactorystudy performance. Instead of improving, problematic children may close off their relationship with their peers and techers.

In conclusion, although a boarding school may provide good education to many children, it is not recommended for those who are stongly attached to their families. They may become frustrated and socially isolated.

A flood is an overflow of an expanse of water that submerges land. In the sense of “Flowing water”, the world may also be applied to inflow the tide. Flooding may results from the volume of water within a body of water, such as a river or lake, which overflows or breaks levees, with the result that some of the water escapes its unusual boundaries.

While the size of a lake or other body of water will vary with seasonal changes in precipitation and snow melt, it is not a significant flood unless such escapes of water endanger land areas used by man like a village, city, or other inhabited area.

Floods can also occur in rivers, when flow exceed the capacity of the river channel, particularly at bends or meanders. Flood often cause damage to homes and businesses if they are placed in natural flood plains of rivers. While flood damage can be virtually eliminated by moving away from rivers and other bodies or water, since time out of mind, people have lived and worked by the water to seek the sustenance and capitalize on the gains of cheap and easy travel and commerce by being near water. That humans continue to inhabit areas threatened by flood damage is evidence that the perceived value of living near the water exceeds the cost of repeated periodic flooding.

Gadis manis, sekarang iseng sendiri

Perahu melancar, bulan memancar

Di leher kukalungkan ole-ole buat si pacar,

Angin membantu, laut tenang tapi terasa

Aku tidak kan sampai padanya

Di air yang tenang, di angin mendayu

Di perasaan penghabisan segala melaju

Ajal bertahta, sambal berkata:

Amboi! Jalan sudah bertahun ketempuh

Perahu yang bersama kan merapuh

SNAKES

                Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the same group as lizards (the scale group, Squadmata) but from a sub-group of their own (Serpentes).

Snakes have two legs but a long time a go they had claws to help them slither along. Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scale which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin is hard and glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.

Snakes often sun bathe on rocks in the warm weather. This is because snakes are cold-blooded, they need the sun’s warmth to heat their bodies up.

Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in trees, some live in water, but, most live on the ground in deserted rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass and in old logs.

A snake’s diet usually consists of frogs, lizards, and mice and other snakes. The anaconda can eat small crocodiles and even bears. Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs. Some snakes are protected by scaring their enemies away like the Cobra. The flying snakes glide away from danger. Their ribs spread spart apart and the skin stretches out. Its technique is just like the sugar gliders.

Since the snakes are cold-blooded, they …

The respiratory system, in anatomy and physiology, are organs that deliver oxygen to the circulatory system to be transported to all body cells. The respiratory and circulatory system work together to deliver oxygen to cells and remove carbondioxide in a two-phase process called respiration.

The first phase of respiration begins with breathing in, or inhalation. Inhalation brings air from outside the body into the lungs. Oxygen in the air moves from the lungs through blood vessels to the heart, which pumps the oxygen-rich blood to all the body. Oxygen then moves from the bloodstream into cells, which completes the first phase of respiration. In the cells, oxygen is used in a separate energy-producing process called cellular respiration, which produces carbon dioxide as a product.

The second phase of respiration begins with the movement of carbon dioxide from the cells to the bloodstream. The bloodstream carries carbon dioxide to the heart, which pumps the carbon dioxide-laden blood to the lungs. In the lungs, breathing out, or exhalation, removes carbon dioxide from the body, thus completing the respiration cycle.

The first phase of respiration completes when …

INDONESIANS SHINE AT ‘RUN FOR FRIENDS’

Nethy Dharma Somba

The Jakarta Post/Jayapura

                Two hundred runners from Indonesia and Papua New Guinea (PNG) ran from Wutung to Skouw in the International Cross Border 10K on Wednesday.

The race started at Wafa village, Vanimo, 7,5 kilometers from the RI-PNG border in Wutung, PNG, and finished in Skouw, Indonesia. The event, which took ‘Run for Frienship’ as its theme, started at 8 a.m. eastern Indonesia Time.

Heavy rain did not affect the participants who kept in high spirits throughout the race. The event was dominated by male runners. There were only eight female runners in the event.

Hanafi of Indonesia, came in first place in the male category, completing the course in 31 minutes. Another Indonesian national, FG Manori, took first place in the female category, completing the course 44 minutes. The winner in both categories received a cash prize of Rp 5 million each.

The cross border race was the first of its kind held between the two neighbouring countries and was made possible thanks to cooperation between the Indonesian Papua province administration and the PNG Sandaun province administration and the PNG Sandaun provincial administration, as well as the support of PT. Freeport Indonesia as the event partner.

The third paragraph tell us …

Faster planes and cheaper flights are making it easier than ever before for people to travel. In the most ‘developed’ societies, visiting exotic places is a sought-after status symbol. The tourism industries of both developed and developing countries have recognized this fact and are learning to take advantage of it.

There are, however, some problems associated with this new industry. Firstly, there is the increasing crime rate. Some locals see tourists as an easy prey because, not only are they in unfamiliar territory and therefore less able to take care of themselves, but also they carry visible items of wealth, such as cameras and jewelery which can be disposed of quickly for profit.

Another major problem is health. With greater mobility comes greater danger of spereading contagious diseases around the world. One carier returning home could easily start and epidemic before their ilnes was diagnosed. Moreover, the emergence of many diseases which resist antibiotics is causing scientists to be increasingly concerned about this issue.

Also to be considered is the natural environment, which can be seriously threatened by too many visitors. Australia’s Great Barrier Reef, for examples, is in danger of being destroyed by tourist and there are plans to restrict visitors to some of the more delicate coral cays.

These are just three of the reasons why any country should be wary of commiting itself to an extensive tourism development program.

Why is the crime rate increasing due to the new industry?

A laptop is a kind of computer unit which has the same function as a PC (Personal Computer), but it is smaller, lighter, and of different sizes. Nowadays, most people choose for several reasons.

A laptop is a portable device. This portability is very helpful for our work, study, and other activities. We do not need complicated cable installations to activate a laptop, and with a laptop we can do our work anytime anywhere.

Moreover, a laptop allows us to acces the internet in public places which provide free access called hot spot areas. Some people like to use this facility to carry out their task.

Finally, a laptop consumes energy more efficiently than a PC does. This device uses a rechargeable battery as a source of electric energy. So if we prefer using a laptop, it means that we support the government program to save energy.

That’s why a laptop has become very popular recently.
