The Miracle Of Friendship
There is a miracle called Friendship
that dwells within the heart
and you don't know how it happens
or when it even starts.
But the happiness it brings you
always gives a special lift
and you realize that Friendship
is God's most precious gift.
- Jean Kyler McManus –

A Friend's Greeting
I'd like to be the sort of friend that
you have been to me;
I'd like to be the help that
you've been always glad to be;
I'd like to mean as much to you
each minute of the day
As you have meant, old friend of mine,
to me along the way.
I'd like to do the big things and
the splendid things for you,
To brush the gray from out your skies
and leave them only blue;
I'd like to say the kindly things that
I so oft have heard,
And feel that I could rouse your soul
the way that mine you've stirred.
I'd like to give you back the joy
that you have given me,
Yet that were wishing you a need
I hope will never be;
I'd like to make you feel as rich as I,
who travel on
Undaunted in the darkest hours with you to
lean upon.
I'm wishing at this time that I
could but repay
A portion of the gladness that
you've strewn along my way;
And could I have one wish this year,
this only would it be:
I'd like to be the sort of friend
that you have been to me.

There's nothing as nice as someone who shares,
your laughter, your secrets, your wishes and cares,
someone who's there through your good times and tears,
who stays by your side as your friend through the years.

You remind me of a flower,
Pretty, inside and outside.
A reason why people smile everyday,
A gift to all.
You remind me of chocolate,
Luscious and sweet.
Someone people can turn to in crisis,
Loved by all.
You remind me of a teddy,
Cute and huggable.
Someone people feel comfortable with,
Special to all.
You remind me of a balloon,
Happy and bouncy.
Someone people can have fun with,
Enjoyed by all.
You remind me of a lot of things,
But nothing can compare to the real person,
A friend I can look up to,
Cherished by me.

The Gift Of Knowing You
There are gifts of many treasures
For both the young and old,
From the tiniest little trinkets
To great boxes filled with gold.
But, put them all together
And they could not stand in lieu,
Of the greatest gift of all
The gift of knowing you.
When your times are filled with troubles
Sadness, grief, or even doubt,
When all those things you planned on
Just aren't turning out.
Just turn and look behind you
From the place at which you stand,
And look for me through the shadows
And reach out for my hand.
I will lift from you your burden
And cry for you your tears,
Bear the pain of all your sorrows
Though it may be for a thousand years.
For in the end I would be happy
To have helped you start anew,
It's a small price to pay
For the gift of knowing you.

Fax, the short term for facsimile is a telecommunications technology used to transfer copies (facsimiles) of documents, especially using affordable devices operating over the telephone network. The word telefax, short for telefacsimile, for “make a copy at a distance”, is also used as a synonym. The device is also known as a telecopier in certain industries.

It was a warm day in March. I was very excited. The day had finally come. I was in the rowing team for the Olympics. I got up very early and exercised as always. Then after breakfast I drove to Drummoyne. My team arrived and at last it was time to start.
Ready, set and the starting gun went off. We began in the third position and were slowly moving closer. There they were. We could see the second boat and then we did it.
We moved past. My arms were aching. My whole body was sore but we all rowed harder.
The first boat was just in front I saw a dark shadow near the boat. I looked again. What was it? I was sure it was the shape of a cigar. ‘Oh my God’, I thought, ‘I must be seeing things. A shark in Parramata River? Impossible!’
Just then I pulled my oar out of the water. ‘Oh no, why only half?’ I thought. Then I knew. I shouted to my team, ‘Shark! Shark!’ and suddenly we forgot the race. We rowed faster than ever back to shore. We made it. Phew, we were safe!

Next he ordered his men to make a fake pearl and a large kite. He waited until the dragon left his cave. Then he placed the fake pearl in a bag, slung it across his shoulder and flew up to the mountain-top on the kite. He exchanged the real pearl for the fake one and then his brother pulled his kite back to the ground.

Untuk mengobati rematik rematik siapkan 1 atau 2 rimpang jahe. Panaskan rimpang tersebut di atas api atau bara dan kemudian ditumbuk. Tempel tumbukan jahe pada bagian tubuh yang sakit rematik. Cara lain adalah dengam menumbuk bersama cengkeh, dan ditempelkan pada bagian tubuh yang rematik.
Jahe juga dapat digunakan untuk mengobati luka karena lecet, ditikam benda tajam, terkena duri, jatuh, serta gigitan ular. Caranya rimpang jahe merah ditumbuk dan ditambahkan sedikit garam. Letakkan pada bagian tubuh yang terluka.
Rimpang tumbuk juga dapat dipakai sebagai obat gosok pada penyakit gatal karena sengatan serangga.
Rimpang yang ditumbuk, dengan diberi sedikit garam, kemudian ditempelkan pada luka bekas gigitan ular beracun (hanya sebagai pertolongan pertama sebelum penderita dibawa ke dokter).
Dengan dicampur lobak, jahe dapat digunakan untuk mengobati eksim. Parutan lobak dicampur dengan air jahe. Air jahe dapat diperoleh dengan memarut rimpang jahe, lalu diperas. Ramuan ini dioleskan ke bagian kulit yang terkena eksim. Biasanya dalam waktu 2 minggu saja penyakit sudah berkurang.
Untuk mencegah mabuk perjalanan, ada baiknya minum wedang jahe sebelum bepergian. Caranya: pukul-pukul jahe segar sepanjang satu ruas jari. Masukkan ke dalam satu gelas air panas, beri madu secukupnya, lalu diminum. Bisa juga menggunakan sepertiga sendok teh jahe bubuk, atau kalau tahan, makan dua kerat jahe mentah.
Khasiat Jahe
Sejak dulu Jahe dipergunakan sebagai obat, atau bumbu dapur dan aneka keperluan lainnya. Jahe dapat merangsang kelenjar pencernaan, baik untuk membangkitkan nafsu makan dan pencernaan.
Jahe yang digunakan sebagai bumbu masak terutama berkhasiat untuk menambah nafsu makan, memperkuat lambung, dan memperbaiki pencernaan. Hal ini dimungkinkan karena terangsangnya selaput lendir perut besar dan usus oleh minyak asiri yang dikeluarkan rimpang jahe.
Minyak jahe berisi gingerol yang berbau harum khas jahe, berkhasiat mencegah dan mengobati mual dan muntah, misalnya karena mabuk kendaraan atau pada wanita yang hamil muda. Juga rasanya yang tajam merangsang nafsu makan, memperkuat otot usus, membantu mengeluarkan gas usus serta membantu fungsi jantung. Dalam pengobatan tradisional Asia, jahe dipakai untuk mengobati selesma, batuk, diare dan penyakit radang sendi tulang seperti artritis. Jahe juga dipakai untuk meningkatkan pembersihan tubuh melalui keringat.
Penelitian modern telah membuktikan secara ilmiah berbagai manfaat jahe, antara lain :

Penelitian modern telah membuktikan secara ilmiah berbagai manfaat jahe, antara lain :
- Menurunkan tekanan darah. Hal ini karena jahe merangsang pelepasan hormon adrenalin dan memperlebar pembuluh darah, akibatnya darah mengalir lebih cepat dan lancar dan memperingan kerja jantung memompa darah.
- Membantu pencernaan, karena jahe mengandung enzim pencernaan yaitu protease dan lipase, yang masing- masing mencerna protein dan lemak..
- Gingerol pada jahe bersifat antikoagulan, yaitu mencegah penggumpalan darah. Jadi mencegah tersumbatnya pembuluh darah, penyebab utama stroke, dan serangan jantung. Gingerol juga diduga membantu menurunkan kadar kolesterol.
- Mencegah mual, karena jahe mampu memblok serotonin, yaitu senyawa kimia yang dapat menyebabkan perut berkontraksi, sehingga timbul rasa mual. Termasuk mual akibat mabok perjalanan.
- Membuat lambung menjadi nyaman, meringankan kram perut dan membantu mengeluarkan angin.
- Jahe juga mengandung antioksidan yang membantu menetralkan efek merusak yang disebabkan oleh radikal bebas di dalam tubuh.
Kandungan Rimpang Jahe
Sifat khas jahe disebabkan adanya minyak atsiri dan oleoresin jahe. Aroma harum jahe disebabkan oleh minyak atsiri, sedangkan oleoresinnya menyebabkan rasa pedas. Mnnyak atsiri dapat diperoleh atau diisolasi dengan destilasi uap dari rhizoma jahe kering. Ekstrak minyak jahe berbentuk cairan kental berwarna kehijauan sampai kuning, berbau harum tetapi tidak memiliki komponen pembentuk rasa pedas. Kandungan minyak atsiri dalam jahe kering sekitar 1 – 3 persen. Komponen utama minyak atsiri jahe yang menyebabkan bau harum adalah zingiberen dan zingiberol.
Oleoresin jahe banyak mengandung komponen pembentuk rasa pedas yang tidak menguap. Komponen dalam oleoresin jahe terdiri atas gingerol dan zingiberen, shagaol, minyak atsiri dan resin. Pemberi rasa pedas dalam jahe yang utama adalah zingerol.
Pemilu 1955
Ini merupakan pemilu yang pertama dalam sejarah bangsa Indonesia. Waktu itu Republik Indonesia berusia 10 tahun. Kalau dikatakan pemilu merupakan syarat minimal abgi adanya demokrasi, apakah berarti selama 10 tahun itu Indonesia benar-benar tidak demokratis? Tidak mudah juga menjawab pertanyaan tersebut.
Yang jelas, sebetulnya sekitar tiga bulan setelah kemerdekaan di proklamasikan oleh Soekarno dan Hatta pada 17 Agustus 1945, pemerintah waktu itu sudah menyatakan keinginannya untuk bisa menyelenggarakan pemilu pada awal tahun 1946. Hal itu dicantumkan dalam Maklumat X, atau Maklumat Wakil Presiden Mohammad Hatta tanggal 3 Nopember 1945, yang berisi anjuran tentang pembentukan partai-partai politik.
Maklumat tersebut menyebutkan, pemilu untuk memilih anggota DPR dan MPR akan diselenggarakan bulan Januari 1946. Kalau kemudian ternyata pemilu pertama tersebut baru terselenggara hampir sepuluh tahun setelah kemudian tentu bukan tanpa sebab.
Tetapi, berbeda dengan tujuan yang dimaksudkan oleh Maklumat X, pemilu 1955 dilakukan dua kali. Yang pertama, pada 29 September 1955 untuk memilih anggota-anggota DPR. Yang kedua, 15 Desember 1955 untuk memilih anggota-anggota Dewan Konstituante. Dalam Maklumat X hanya disebutkan bahwa pemilu yang akan diadakan Januari 1946 adalah untuk memilih anggota DPR dan MPR, tidak ada Konstituante.
Keterlambatan dan "penyimpangan" tersebut bukan tanpa sebab pula. Ada kendala yang bersumber dari dalam negeri dan ada pula yang berasal dari faktor luar negeri. Sumber penyebab dari dalam antara lain ketidaksiapan pemerintah menyelenggarakan pemilu, baik karena belum tersedia perangkat perundang-undangan untuk mengatur penyelenggaraan pemilu maupun akibat rendahnya stabilitas keamanan negara. Dan yang tidak kalah pentingnya, penyebab dari dalam itu adalah sikap pemerintah yang enggan menyelenggarakan perkisaran (sirkulasi) kekuasaan secara teratur dan kompetitif. Penyebab dari luar antara lain serbuan kekuatan asing yang mengharuskan negara ini terlibat peperangan.
Tidak terlaksana pemilu pertama pada bulan Januari 1946 seperti yang diamanatkan oleh Maklumat 3 Nopember 1945, paling tidak disebabkan 2 (dua) hal :
- Belum siapnya pemerintah baru, termasuk dalam penyusunan perangkat UU Pemilu
- Belum stabilnya kondisi keamanan negara akibat konflik internal antara kekuatan politik yang ada pada waktu itu, apalagi pada saat yang sama gangguan dari luar juga masih mengancam. Dengan kata lain para pemimpin lebih disibukkan oleh urusan konsolidasi.
Namun tidak berarti bahwa konsolidasi kekuatan bangsa dan perjuangan mengusir penjajah itu, pemerintah kemudian tidak berniat untuk menyelenggarakan pemilu. Ada indikasi kuat bahwa pemerintah punya keinginan politik untuk menyelenggarakan pemilu. Misalnya adalah dibentuknya UU No.27 tahun 1948 tentang pemilu, yang kemudian diubah dengan UU No.12 tahun 1949 tentang Pemilu. Di dalam UU No.12/1949 diamanatkan bahwa pemilihan umum yang akan dilakukan adalah bertingkat (tidak langsung). Sifat pemilihan tidak langsung ini didsarkan pada alasan bahwa mayoritas warganegara Indonesia pada waktu itu masih buta huruf, sehingga kalau pemilihannya langsung dikhawatirkan akan banyak terjadi distorsi.
Kemudian pada paroh kedua tahun 1950, ketika Mohammad Natsir dari Masyumi menjadi Perdana Menteri, pemerintah memutuskan untuk menjadi pemilu sebagai program kabinetnya. Sejak itu pembahasan UU Pemilu mulai dilakukan lagi, yang dilakukan oelh Panitia Sahardjo dan Kantor Panitia Pemilihan Pusat sebelum kemudian dilanjutkan ke parlemen. Pada waktu itu Indonesia kembali menjadi negara kesatuan, setelah sejak 1949 menjadi negara serikat dengan nama Republik Indonesia Serikat (RIS).
Setelah Kabinet Natsir jatuh 6 bulan kemudian, pembahasan RUU Pemilu dilanjutkan oleh pemerintahan SUkiman Wirjosandjojo, juga dari Masyumi. Pemerintah ketika itu berupaya menyelenggarakan pemilu karena pasal 57 UUDS 1950 menyatakan bahwa anggota DPR dipilih oleh rakyat melalui pemilihan umum.
Tetapi pemerintah Sukiman juga tidak berhasil menuntaskan pembahasan undang-undang pemilu tersebut. Selanjutnya UU ini baru selesai dibahas oleh parlemen pada masa pemerintahan Wilopo dari PNI pada tahun 1953. Maka lahirlah UU No.7 tahun 1953 tentang Pemilu. UU inilah yang menjadi payung hukum Pemilu 1955 yang diselenggarakan secara langsung, umum, bebas dan rahasia. Dengan demikian UU No.27 tahun 1948 tentang Pemilu yang diubah dengan UU No.12 tahun 1949 yang mengadopsi pemilihan bertingkat (tidak langsung) bagi anggota DPR tidak berlaku lagi.
Patut dicatat dan dibanggakan bahwa pemilu yang pertama kali tersebut berhasil diselenggarakan dengan aman, lancar, jujur dan adil serta sangat demokratis. Pemilu 1955 bahkan mendapat pujian dari berbagai pihak, termasuk negara-negara asing. Pemilu ini diikuti oleh lebih dari 30-an partai politik dan lebih dari seratus daftar kumpulan dan calon perorangan.
Yang menarik dari Pemilu 1955 adalah tingginya kesadaran berkompetisi secara sehat. Misalnya, meski yang menjadi calon anggota DPR adalah perdana menteri dan menteri yang sedang memerintah, mereka tidak menggunakan fasilitas negara dan otoritasnya kepada pejabat bawahan untuk menggiring pemilih yang menguntungkan partainya.
Karena itu sosok pejabat negara tidak dianggap sebagai pesaing yang menakutkan dan akan memenangkan pemilu dengan segala cara. Karena pemilu kali ini dilakukan untuk dua keperluan, yaitu memilih anggota DPR dan memilih anggota Dewan Kosntituante, maka hasilnya pun perlu dipaparkan semuanya.
