Distinguishing Intonation mean

Distinguishing Intonation mean


Once, on one day in a small village, a carpenter received a letter. Because of illiteracy, then hurriedly went to a butcher he knew, who had a strong character, to ask for help reading the letter.
Distinguishing Intonation mean
 "It's a letter from your son," cried the butcher. "Here he said: Dad, I'm sick and penniless cent. Please send me some money as soon as possible. Your son. "Thus, the letter was read in a voice loud and harsh tones by the butcher. Instantly the carpenter was angry. He said, "You ungrateful child! So she is, can rule me, father? Do not think I'll send him cent! "

In his anger, he returned home. But the journey, he met his friend, a tailor who soft-spoken. So he told me about the letter earlier.

"Why do not you see my boy this letter!" He said.

The seamstress then read the letter in her gentle, calm, and clear.

Suddenly, another very meaningful letter. The carpenter had to be sad. "Oh my poor!" She said anxiously. "He must have suffered, I'd better send her money now."

A wise friend ...

The message is very dependent on the manner of delivery. Often, the conflict between couples, friends, or colleagues, arises not because there is a large and complex problem that can not be solved. But because we can not manage to deliver a thing.

Please note: for example when we disagree with the opinion of someone, you should convey to the patient, friendly, and clear. So who heard it will be easier to accept / digest and more contention can be avoided.

Come, learn to behave better in the "wrap" message that we want to convey.

Glass Wrecking hammer, but Hammers Forming Steel
What is the meaning of the ancient Russian proverb?

If our souls fragile as glass, then when the mallet / hit problems, we will easily discouraged, frustrated, disappointed, angry, and so despondent.

If we are the glass, then we are also vulnerable to collisions. We're easily offended, disappointed, angry, or hurt while we relate to others. Little impact has been more than enough to destroy our relationship.

Do not ever be a glass, but be steel. Mental mental steel is always positive, even grateful when a problem remains and the circumstances that was really hard squeezing.

Why is that?
People who like this always assume that "the problem is the process of life to shape it for the better". A piece of steel who would be a more useful tool after first processed and shaped with a hammer. Every blow is painful, but the mental steel to realize that it's always good to him.

If today we are being oppressed by the problems of life, never respond with the wrong attitude!
If we are "steel", we will always see the hammer that struck us as friends that will shape us.
Conversely, if we are "glass" then we will always see the hammer as an enemy who would destroy us.

Xiaofeng Peng - Success For Learning and Courage

Xiaofeng Peng - Success For Learning and Courage 


Writer: Tim AndrieWongso.com 

Many young people today because of internet based business aiming to make money easy, cheap, and get rich quick. But work on the real sector (production of goods) is also able to create new millionaires from the capital does not amount to much. One of them was Peng Xiaofeng, a young Chinese-born, 34 years ago. 

Unlike the young, successful businessman from the West who tend to drop-outs (such as Mark Zuckerberg - Facebook or Bill Gates at Microsoft's launch), Xiaofeng develop because of active learning. In addition, he is also smart as seen from the track record of brilliant education, always top three in school and never Mathematics Olympic champion in his country. 


During high school he not only English language courses, but also taught himself Japanese and Germans did not find the place after the course. After graduating high school he continued his studies at the School of Foreign Trade, Jiangxi to achieve the diploma in 1993. After that, pursuing MBA at Beijing University Guanghua School of Management which she completed in 2002. 


But success can not be achieved easily. Xiaofeng undergo several stages of life before pursuing a business that made him one of Asia's richest young people in the world. Began when he worked in Jian City Bureau of Foreign Trade, an export development agency in the province of Jiangxi. At this institution he served analyze China's foreign trade. 


Maybe that's where he found the export opportunities. That is not at all. In 1997 along with a few friends founded the Liuxing Industries Limited, an import-export company dealing in trading of safety equipment such as gloves, safety shoes, work clothes, and so on. He also volunteered to come out of the city of Jian foregin Trade Bureau to better manage their own business seriously. 


However, the institutions of local government resign because its performance is quite good. Somehow the story, Xiaofeng really got the idea of ​​establishing his own company that manufactures safety equipment. Then the Jiangxi provincial government is willing to invest. From Suzhou Industrial Company Limited Liuxin standing, cooperation with local governments Jiangxi company. With the founding of this company has integrated business Xiaofeng between safety equipment manufacturers (through Suzhou Liuxin) and marketing company (Liuxing Industry). 


Good relations with local governments also take advantage when he had the idea to develop a Solar Power Plant (PLTS). One time in 2001, because he often served to represent a European company, Xiaofeng realize how Europe increasingly intensive use of PLTS. This idea appears. He wants to encourage the Chinese government to develop well and he supplies the panel suryanya PLTS. But it was not easy because he is blind to technology. 

Fortunately the spirit of learning never subsided. After studying here and there even to visit a solar cell factory in the U.S., in 2005 he established the Jiangxi LDK Solar Co. Ltd., a manufacturer of solar panels and its supporting products. He is very tactical raise money. Before the plant was established he marketed it to the provincial government of Jiangxi. And after the government can be convinced and willing to buy products for PLTS will be built in the province, he sought a loan. It is not difficult to obtain capital when the buyer is certain. From this stand Jiangxi LDK Solar Co. Ltd..

 The company began to produce solar cells from raw materials, installation, maintenance and other support. Before long he was getting lots of orders. Even he could export it. This business is not so much in the world, probably because its application has not been popular. Xiaofeng now owned company became the largest supplier of solar cell industry in the world. Xiaofeng, founder and major shareholder, has become one of the richest young man in the world. According to estimates by Forbes magazine, his wealth reached U.S. $ 2.5 billion, or around Rp 21.2 trillion! All because Xiaofeng properly manage potential through learning and the courage to take risks.

There are successful in our Hands grip
The story illustrates that the real forces that determine our future lies in our ability to maximize its potential. Those who are optimists will always be aware of the situation himself gratefully. With grateful they were able to maximize what he has. This is what will lead us to independence, do not rely on others, because we believe we have the ability.




Everyone is certainly different from the others. Each has advantages and disadvantages. Then, if someone is born with physical deficiencies, lack of opportunity for the schools, lack of geography or area of ​​residence, parents are poor, have no chance to be a successful person?


If that fact, why many people with disabilities, for example, can be successful by defeating a normal person? Why is Stevie Wonder, the singer who was born without sight, can be successful and become a living legend who beat them normal? Why are the people who once poor are now able to enter the World Forbes Billionaire row or rows of the richest people in the world?


Only those who believe that success is in the hands of his own and dare to fight desperately to be successful. This is exactly the philosophy that I often say. Success is My Right! Success is our right! Therefore, no matter what our potential, let us know it, let us strive for. Success was waiting for us!

In  Fate's in our Hands grip

Politics  always bear his heroic example.  Helle Thorning-Schmidt's victory  in the Danish general election 15 September 2011  reminded the world that these women politicians never give up. As a woman, he faces a big challenge to achieve that position.  He must convince his people that a woman can lead Denmark.


His struggle has been a long time he did and failed at the election victory of 2007 when just one step away. Now he is waiting for the inauguration to become Denmark's first woman Prime Minister as well as showing that the emancipation of the country's going well.


In Indonesia, the struggle for the emancipation of women has always identified with RA Kartini. Now many Indonesian women who become leaders within small organizations, enterprises, ministries, and even became president. Kartini message has been practiced.


Actually the essence of the message is universal and self-reliance doctrine implies that thick. Meaning not only for women but men as a whole. That one's fate is determined by the people themselves, not by others. Success is determined by the person himself, rather than relying on people for help.

Risk Factors for Malignant Mesothelioma


Malignant Mesothelioma is a disease in which lies malignant (cancer) cells in the mesothelium, a thin layer of tissue that covers most organs in the body was found.


Mesothelioma most often affects the pleura (the thin tissue layer that lines the chest cavity and covers the lungs) or peritoneum (the thin layer of tissue that lines the abdomen and covers most organs in the abdominal cavity). This article describes malignant pleural mesothelioma.


Working with asbestos is the major risk factor for mesothelioma. A history of asbestos exposure in the workplace is reported in about 70 to 80 percent of all cases. However, mesothelioma has been reported in some individuals without any known exposure to asbestos.


There is some evidence that family members and others living with asbestos workers at increased risk of developing mesothelioma, asbestos disease and other related possibilities. This risk can put the result of exposure to asbestos dust home on their clothing and hair of asbestos workers. To reduce the chance of exposing family members to asbestos fibers, asbestos workers are usually required to shower and change their clothing before leaving the workplace.


Smoking did not appear to increase the risk of mesothelioma. But the combination of smoking and asbestos exposure increases a person's risk of lung cancer (see the causes of lung cancer).


When exposed to asbestos can affect the risk of developing malignant mesothelioma. Many people with malignant mesothelioma have worked or lived in places where they are inhaled or swallowed asbestos. Once exposed to asbestos, it takes a long time to happen most of malignant mesothelioma.


Other risk factors for malignant mesothelioma include:


Living with someone who works near asbestos.
Because exposure to certain viruses.




Mesothelioma is a (cancer) benign (not cancerous) or malignant tumors mesothelium, which is a type of protective sac that covers the internal organs. Most cases begin in the pleura (the lining around the lungs) or peritoneum (abdominal lining).

Mesothelioma Treatment and Causes


Mesothelioma Treatment and Causes



Treatment for<a href='http://mesotheliomadoctors.blogspot.com/'> Mesothelioma</a>
"Mesothelioma Treatment and Causes". There are various mesothelioma treatment options for someone diagnosed with the disease.

Several factors can influence the recommended treatment options include:

Stage of cancer (see Phase Mesothelioma)
Types of cancer cells (as seen under a microscope)
A person's age and general health
Whether newly diagnosed or has come mesothelioma (relapse) is.

In general, the treatment options for mesothelioma:

Surgery (see Surgery Mesothelioma)
Chemotherapy (see Chemotherapy Mesothelioma)
Radiation therapy (see Radiation Mesothelioma).

Your doctor can describe your treatment options and expected results of each. You both can work together to create a treatment plan that your medical needs and personal values ​​will do justice. Choosing the most appropriate treatment is a decision that in the ideal case, a team of patients, families and health.

Treatment of Mesothelioma
Mesothelioma treatment usually begins within a few weeks after diagnosis. It is time for people to talk to their doctors about treatment options, a second opinion, and you will learn more about this disease.

Working with asbestos is the major risk factor for mesothelioma. In the United States, asbestos is the major cause of malignant mesothelioma and has been considered "indisputably" associated with the development of mesothelioma. Indeed, the relationship between asbestos and mesothelioma is so strong that many consider mesothelioma a “signal” or “sentinel” tumor. A history of asbestos exposure exists in most cases.

However, mesothelioma has been reported in some individuals without any known exposure to asbestos. In rare cases, mesothelioma has also been associated with irradiation, intrapleural thorium dioxide (Thorotrast), and inhalation of other fibrous silicates, such as erionite. Some studies suggest that simian virus 40 (SV40) may act as a cofactor in the development of mesothelioma.

Asbestos was known in antiquity, but it was not mined and widely used commercially until the late 19th century. Its use greatly increased during World War II. Since the early 1940s, millions of American workers have been exposed to asbestos dust. Initially, the risks associated with asbestos exposure were not publicly known.

Treatment Mesothelioma
However, an increased risk of developing mesothelioma was later found among shipyard workers, people who work in asbestos mines and mills, producers of asbestos products, workers in the heating and construction industries, and other tradespeople. Today, the official position of the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the U.S. EPA is that protections and "permissible exposure limits" required by U.S. regulations, while adequate to prevent most asbestos-related non-malignant disease, they are not adequate to prevent or protect against asbestos-related cancers such as mesothelioma.
