Catatan hujan

Cinta itu bukanlah perkara kata, melainkan makna yang dalam.

Ketika berbicara tentang cinta, hanya ada rasa ikhlas dan bahagia. Meskipun tak bisa bersama dan melihat orang yang dicintai bersama orang lain. Akan selalu mendoakan yang terbaik untuk orang yang dicintai. Tak akan pernah merasa disakiti dan tersakiti.

Setelah sekian lama tak berjumpa. Mungkin kamu yang sudah menemukan yang terbaik untukmu. Now, hanya bisa mengingat  senyum bahagia yang terpancar darimu yang selalu membayangi selama ini. Kamu istimewa

Manfaat Teh Hitam bagi *Kesehatan*

Sejumlah penelitian telah untuk mengetahui manfaat penting teh hijau, minuman pilihan di Timur Jauh. Tapi di tempat lain di dunia, terutama di Eropa dan Timur Tengah, teh hitam menempati posisi tertinggi, dan lebih sedikit studi telah meneliti khasiat teh hitam ini.
Dalam hal antioksidan, teh hitam berada satu level di bawah teh hijau. Teh yang paling umum digunakan dan yang paling populer di Barat, teh hitam awalnya adalah teh hijau dengan pengeringan lebih lanjut – hal inilah yang mengakibatkan berubah warna dan rasanya. Teh Hitam mengalami oksidasi dan fermentasi penuh. Sehingga warnanya berubah menjadi hitam dan rasanya lebih kuat dan khas. Proses oksidasi dihentikan ketika aroma dan rasa telah didapatkan. Daunnya lebih lanjut dilumatkan untuk berbagai ukuran, dipilah-pilah dan disimpan sesuai dengan ukuran mereka.
Teh hitam adalah fondasi dari varietas teh populer. Dan banyak orang mungkin senang untuk mengetahui bahwa teh hitam, selain menjadi minuman menyenangkan, benar-benar bisa baik bagi kesehatan.

Penelitian terbaru dalam jurnal medis terkemuka menyatakan bahwa teh hitam sangat potensial untuk tonik jantung , kanker blocker, peluruh lemak, stimulan kekebalan tubuh, pengurang radang sendi, pembunuh virus dan penurun kolesterol jahat.
“Teh mengalahkan semua harapan ilmiah sebagai minuman kesehatan yang paling ampuh yang pernah ada,” kata peneliti John Weisburger di Yayasan Kesehatan Amerika. “Dalam banyak cara teh dapat meningkatkan kesehatan benar-benar mengagumkan.”
Berikut adalah cara teh hitam dapat berpotensi menguntungkan kesehatan Anda:
  1. Teh Hitam Menyelamatkan Arteri. Minum teh hitam membantu mencegah penyumbatan arteri dan mengembalikan fungsi arteri rusak yang bisa memicu serangan jantung dan stroke. Pada tes arecent, Joseph Vita, MD, dari Boston University School of Medicine, memiliki pasien jantung yang meminum air biasa atau empat cangkir teh hitam setiap hari. Dalam sebulan, berkurangnya gangguan pembuluh darah (faktor risiko untuk serangan jantung dan stroke) meningkat sekitar 50% pada peminum teh hitam.
  2. Teh Hitam Menghambat pertumbuhan kanker. Teh telah lama dikaitkan dengan rendahnya risiko kanker perut, usus besar dan payudara, namun korelasi ini tidak terbukti. Sekarang studi laboratorium menemukan bahwa bahan kimia teh hitam sebenarnya dapat menghentikan pertumbuhan kanker. Peneliti Rutgers University menunjukkan bahwa senyawa dalam teh hitam yang disebut TF-2 menyebabkan sel kanker kolorektal “bunuh diri” dan sel-sel normal tidak terpengaruh.
  3. Teh Hitam mengurangi peradangan. TF-2, senyawa anti kanker yang baru ditemukan dalam teh hitam, menekan gen Cox-2 yang memicu peradangan, begitu menurut penelitian di Rutgers.
  4. Teh Hitam menonaktifkan virus. Tes sebelumnya membuktikan teh hitam dapat menetralisir kuman, termasuk beberapa yang menyebabkan diare, pneumonia, sistitis dan infeksi kulit. Penelitian baru oleh Milton Schiffenbauer dari Pace University menemukan bahwa teh hitam dan hijau menonaktifkan virus, termasuk herpes. Ketika Anda minum teh, menurutnya, kemungkinan besar Anda akan menonaktifkan virus di mulut Anda.

Manfaat Teh Hitam ( Black Tea )

Apa saja fungsi Teh Hitam bagi kehidupan sehari-hari??

Last Friday Night ( Katy Perry) --Lirik lagu

There's a stranger in my bed,
There's a pounding my head
Glitter all over the room
Pink flamingos in the pool
I smell like a minibar
DJ's passed out in the yard
Barbie's on the barbeque

There's a hickie or a bruise
Pictures of last night
Eended up online
I'm screwed
Oh well
It's a black top blur
But I'm pretty sure it ruled

Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on tabletops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgot

Last Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credit cards
And got kicked out of the bar
So we hit the boulevard

Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping in the dark
Then had a menage a trois
Last Friday night
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop-op
Whoa-oh-oah

This Friday night
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again

Trying to connect the dots
Don't know what to tell my boss
Think the city towed my car
Chandelier is on the floor
With my favorite party dress
Warrants out for my arrest
Think I need a ginger ale
That was such an epic fail

Pictures of last night
Ended up online
I'm screwed
Oh well
It's a blacked out blur
But I'm pretty sure it ruled
Damn

Last Friday night
Yeah we danced on table tops
And we took too many shots
Think we kissed but I forgot

Last Friday night
Yeah we maxed our credits card
And got kicked out of the bars
So we hit the boulevards

Last Friday night
We went streaking in the park
Skinny dipping int he dark
Then had a menage a trois
Yeah I think we broke the law
Always say we're gonna stop-op
Oh whoa oh

This Friday night
Do it all again
Do it all again
This Friday night
Do it all again
Do it all again
This Friday night

https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhQHp7wKhGl-GFPoYlPhm2jtMhSy9vlzNfAT0CPh6q1KiTeTFYXocsYvhv429lSxYOYV2_9wBpSlnS9SMNPA98QgvnP1qZLqDfS_tiF73bIKN-XucHf9HcmOh7BxcRCKMPZ7PlFYbDPsyem/s1600/d.jpg


Prambanan is the largest and most magnificent Hindu temple ever built in ancient Java, the construction of royal Hindu temple was started by the Rakai Pikatan as opposed to a Buddhist temple of Borobudur temple and also Sewu located not far from Prambanan. Some historians have long suspected that the construction of grand Hindu temple to mark the return to power Sanjaya family on Java, it is related to the theory of twin different dynasty competing beliefs; the Sanjaya dynasty dynasty Sailendra Hindus and Buddhists. Surely, with the construction of this temple marks the return Saiwa Hinduism has the support of the royal family, after the previous dynasty tended to be more supportive Sailendra Mahayana Buddhism. This marks the kingdom Medang switch focus their religious support, from Mahayana Buddhism to the cult of Shiva.
The building was first built in 850 AD by the Rakai Pikatan and sustainably enhanced and expanded by King and King Balitung Lokapala Maha Sambu. Based on Siwagrha inscription dates to 856 AD, a shrine was built to glorify the god Shiva, and the original name of this building is Siwagrha in Sanskrit (Sanskrit: Shiva-Graha which means: 'The house of Shiva') or Siwalaya (Sanskrit: Shiva-laya which means: 'aspect of Shiva' or 'Natural Shiva'). [4] In this inscription mentioned that during the construction of the temple Siwagrha underway, the public works carried out are also changes in order to move the flow of river water near this temple. The river in question is Opak river that flows from north to south along the west side of the temple complex of Prambanan. Historians suspect that the original flow of the river is turned curved to the east, and is considered too close to the temple so that erosion of the river can be dangerous to the construction of the temple. Water system project is done by creating a new river that cuts sodetan river curved to the north-south axis along the west wall outside the temple complex. Former native streams and then backfilled to provide a wider field for the construction of a row of ancillary temples (temple or temple guards escort).
Some archaeologists argue that statues of Shiva in garbhagriha (main hall) in the temple of Shiva as the main temple is a statue of the king Balitung embodiment, as the statue of his posthumous pedharmaan. [5] The name Prambanan, derived from the name of the village where the temple stood, is thought to change the name of the dialect Java language from "The Brahman," which may refer to the heyday of this temple which formerly filled by the Brahmins.
This building complex on a regular basis continues to be refined by the kings of Mataram Medang next, as the king Daksha and Tulodong, and expanded by building hundreds of additional temples around the main temple. Because of the grandeur of this temple, Prambanan temple serves as a great kingdom of Mataram, where a main important royal ceremonies. At the height of its power, historians suspect that hundreds of Brahmin priests and students gathered outside the temple courtyard and inhabit it to study the Vedas and perform various Hindu rituals and ceremonies. While the center of the kingdom or empire of Mataram palace supposedly located somewhere on the plains near the Prambanan Kewu.Abandoned
Around the year 930-an, capital of the kingdom moved to East Java by MPU Sindok, who founded the dynasty Isyana. The cause of moving the center of power is not known with certainty. However, most probably due to the great eruption of Mount Merapi, which rises about 20 kilometers north of the temple of Prambanan. Other possible causes of war and power struggles. After moving the capital city, Prambanan temple began neglected and uncared for, so this temple slowly begin to deteriorate and collapse.
The building of the temple is thought to completely collapse due to severe earthquake in the 16th century. Although no longer a center of Hindu religion and worship, the temple was still recognizable and known to exist by the Javanese people who inhabit the surrounding villages. The temples and statues of Durga in the main building of this temple which is Javanese folklore inspired legend Jonggrang Rara. After the disintegration of the Sultanate of Mataram in 1755, the ruins of temples and the nearby river Opak be a sign of demarcation between the Sultanate of Yogyakarta and Surakarta Kasunanan (Solo).RecoveryPrambanan temple ruins as soon as discovered.
Locals residents in Java around the temple was aware of the existence of this temple. But they do not know the background of real history, whom the king and kingdom of what has been built this monument. As a result of the imagination, the local people creating local tales to explain the origin of the existence of these temples; colored with a fantastic tale about a giant king, thousands of temples built by jinns and spirits dedemit in just one night, as well as the beautiful princess who was cursed to be statues. The legend of Prambanan temple is known as Rara Jonggrang story.
In 1733, this temple was found by the CA. Lons a Dutch nationality. This temple is the world's attention when the British occupation of Java. When it was Colin Mackenzie, a subordinate surveyor Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, find this temple. Although Sir Thomas then ordered further investigation, the ruins of this temple remained neglected until the decades. No serious excavations conducted during the 1880s, which unfortunately even enrich the practice of looting and stone carved temples. Then in 1855, Jan Willem IJzerman start to clean and move some rocks and soil from the chambers of the temple. Moments later Isaac Groneman perform large-scale demolition and temple stones were piled haphazardly along the Opak. Statues and reliefs of the temple was taken by a Dutch citizen and used as garden ornaments, while the indigenous use of the temple stones for building materials and house foundation.Restoration
The restoration began in 1918, but the real serious effort began in the 1930s. In 1902-1903, Theodoor van Erp keep parts prone to collapse. In the years 1918-1926, followed by the Bureau of Antiquities (Oudheidkundige Dienst) under PJ Perquin a more systematic manner according to the rules of archeology. As is known to his predecessors did the removal and demolition of thousands of stones randomly without considering the restoration effort back. In 1926 De Haan continued until his death in 1930. In 1931 was replaced by Ir. V.R. van Romondt up in 1942 and then submitted the leadership of the son of Indonesia's renovation and continued until 1993 [6].
Renovation efforts continue to be done even now. The restoration of the Shiva temple is the main temple complex was completed in 1953 and inaugurated by the first President of the Republic of Indonesia Sukarno. Many parts of the renovated temple, using a new stone, as many original stones were stolen or reused elsewhere. A temple will only be restored when at least 75% of the original stone is still there. Therefore, many small temples which was rebuilt and it just seemed foundation.
Now, this temple was included in a protected World Heritage Site by UNESCO, was awarded UNESCO status in 1991Candi Prambanan is incredibly beautiful building built in the 10th century during the reign of two kings, and Rakai Rakai Pikatan Balitung. Rose as high as 47 feet (5 meters higher than Borobudur temple), the foundation of this temple has fulfilled the desire to show Hindu triumph in Java Island. This temple is located 17 kilometers from the city center, in the middle of the area that is now a beautiful park.
There is a legend that Javanese people always tell about this temple. Once, a man named Roro Jonggrang Bondowoso love. Because of his love, asking Jonggrang Bondowoso make 1000 temples with statues in one night. The request was nearly fulfilled Jonggrang asked the villagers to pound rice and make a fire in order to look like morning.

Garuda is a mythical bird in Hindu mythology who was gold, white face, red wings, beak and wings like eagles. Estimated, figure is Hindu adaptation of Bennu figure (meaning 'sunrise' or 'shining', usually associated with the god Re) in ancient Egyptian mythology or Phoenix in Greek mythology.

At Prambanan reliefs depicted Kalpataru trees flanking the lion. The existence of this tree makes experts consider that the ninth century had wisdom to manage their environment.
Just like the figure of Garuda, Kalpataru is now also used for various purposes. In Indonesia, Kalpataru became a symbol of Environment (Walhi). In fact, some scientists in Bali to develop the concept of Tri Hita Karana for environmental conservation by seeing Kalpataru relief in this temple. The tree of life also can be found in the mountains that used to open the puppet arts. A proof that the relief panels in Prambanan has worldwide.
If careful, you can also see various birds relief, this time a real bird. Bird reliefs at Prambanan are so natural that biologists can identify to genus level. One was relief of the Yellow-crested Cockatoo (Cacatua sulphurea) that question. Why the bird was actually only in Masakambing Island, an island in the Java Sea. Then, if the type was once numerous in Yogyakarta? Please find out yourself. Because, until now no single person who could solve the mystery.

Since September 18, 2006, you can enter a zone of Prambanan, although not yet able to enter into the temple. Some of the damage from the earthquake last May 27, 2006 are now being repaired.

Temple tour in Surakarta

Sukuh is one of the most interesting temples in Southeast Asia. The temple is filled with erotic ornament. No less unique, the building is similar to the Mayan pyramids in Central America. Unfortunately, this temple has not been widely known.

 

Sukuh Berjo in Hamlet, Village Sukuh, District Ngargoyoso, Karanganyar District

Sukuh - Erotic temple are not many known

Unlike the Khajuraho temple in India that was worldwide, Sukuh is not yet widely known. Never mind you, there are many people Jogja that do not know of the existence of this temple. Perhaps because of its remote location on the slopes of Mount Lawu at an altitude of more than a thousand meters above sea level. From Terminal Tirtonadi Solo, you can ride the public bus-Tawangmangu Solo majors and down in Coral Pandan, followed by a minibus majors Kemuning and spliced ​​by taxi to the temple area. If bringing your own vehicle, it is advisable to use diesel-powered cars of 2000 cc or more to ease the journey through some steep grades.
Relief Without Clothing and Headless Statue

The temple complex is not as extensive. Occupying a plot of land terraces, the main gate Sukuh not positioned in the middle but on the right front. Right and left sides are decorated with some relief. A stone staircase YogYES high enough to bring down the hall who was barred gate with a chain. To rise to the second terrace, YogYES must come down again and went around through the right side. From the second terrace then clearly visible in the form of relief this gate. One is a picture of an eagle clutching the legs of a dragon. Mengherankankan is a relief that some human figures in a state of plain, without any clothes at all! Something that is quite astonishing when considering the eastern culture is very strong with the norms of decency in Indonesia. Compounded when considering that this is a temple, an identical building as a place of prayers and worship of the god. Peered into the alley gate, offering flowers and incense on the floor, near a relief in the form of linga and yoni circle of the chain.

Closer to the main temple on the third terrace, stands a waist-high stone platform of adults on the left. There is a stone tower on the front of the stage, again decorated with erotic reliefs of nude figures. One side of the tower bearing the image of a horseshoe-shaped relief with two human figures in it. By most people, relief is believed to depict a woman's uterus with the left figure represents the evil and the right figure represents virtue. An ancillary temples stand in front of the main temple. Rotate to the right, stands the figure of the statue (statue Gupala) without a head. Gupala holds the "spear" is too large compared to its body size, not proportional. Wow!
Cut the mystery of the Pyramids

One more interesting than Sukuh is a different architecture. If the other temples built in the shape that symbolizes Mount Meru, the Sukuh has a very simple with a trapezoidal shape. Built in the XV century, shortly before the collapse of the Majapahit Empire, the temple is more like the pyramids of the Maya tribes of Central America. Can two different ethnic groups from two different continents can make buildings with architectural and design are almost similar? Or indeed any influence in the development of the Mayan Temple in the reign of King Sukuh UB's this?

Various theories and allegations emerged. One of them said that this temple was built in the days when Hindu glory began to fade. As a result, development Sukuh made with the concept back to the prehistoric megalithic culture. Another theory states that the form of this temple is part of the quest story Tirta Amrita (the water of life) is contained in the book Adiparwa, the first book of the Mahabharata. A truncated pyramid whose top represents the peak of Mount Mandaragiri cut and used for churning the ocean to find Tirta Amrita who can give eternal life to anyone who drank it.

The mysteries and questions are still covered Sukuh. Not just a walk in the cool mountain slopes while enjoying the ancient architecture of the last temples built in Java. Trail around looking for stories and pieces of evidence to uncover the mysteries of the past history will be one of the tourist experience challenging and fun.
