Bath Showers December 6th, 2009
KEEPING cleanliness must be initiated from home. Especially a very fundamental part of the bathroom. If neglected, can cause illness and even death.
Based on the dictionary Wikipedia, the bathroom is a room where someone can take a bath to cleanse her body. Sometimes it also includes the sink for hand washing and toilet facilities. Unfortunately, space is often overlooked. In fact, if dirty, users also will not automatically clean up.
According to Regional Anesthesia Specialist Physician, Prof. Darto Satoto SPAN (K), a disease caused by dirty toilets can be derived from bacteria or germs that clings to the inside. In fact, there is a bacteria that causes the death of a dirty toilet.
She said that dirty bathroom can cause the bacteria E-coli. Bacteria that get into the vessels, then a severe disease that can cause infections throughout the body thoroughly. “By default, these bacteria can cause death,” said Darto listed as a Lecturer at the Faculty of Medicine, University of Indonesia on toilet cleanliness campaign with the theme “It’s Healthy Dry.”
The cause of the bacteria, he added, could be from an animal like a fly perched on a dirty bathroom. The bacteria are transmitted through food which inhibited flies, and then consumed. Because the food is dirty, it can lead to hepatitis A.
In transmission, E-coli bacteria regardless of age. Everyone can be affected. “Currently, many Acehnese children more exposed to the bacteria E-coli caused the tsunami was the cause of dirty water and lack of clean water,” said Darto.
Chairman of the Indonesian Toilet Association (ATI) Naning Adiwoso said, in comparison, which requires the user to squat toilets, the use of the toilet seat vulnerable to cause disease.
“The bathroom was dirty and the use of the toilet seat is filthy, the fungus can be contagious in the buttocks of others who use the toilet next, like kandidia,” said Naning is also a veterinarian specialist field of livestock.
There are two types of fungal diseases that can arise, namely lower leg and kandidias tinea. Tinea lower leg rash characterized by slightly reddish in color. In case that was long, it will be accompanied by a blackish color in certain areas.
Meanwhile, marked with bright red patches and redness around the area looks like small spots scattered around him. “Other causes can also be caused by the use of soap containing antiseptic, which makes the survival of bacteria,” explained Darto.
Naning added that sometimes people often feel not aware if the bathroom, which serves to cleanse the body, not just clean the place.
This can be seen from the bathroom, which is often found in a state of dirty, smelly, dark, and airless. More depressing, the bathroom in such circumstances are often found in public bathrooms, where people must pay for the maintenance of cleanliness.
“The more people who give priority to cleaning the toilet, getting healthy is also the Indonesian people,” added Naning

Trees can cool the house garden store philosophy that it’s either not known to many people. Bamboo, a change in “its form” slow, actually have the power at the root. One to three years, tree growth was considered too slow.

According to the classification, bamboo plants belonging to the grass. However, bamboo is a grass spectacular. The height can be stretched from 30 cm to 30 meters. Bamboo is a grass plant is unique. Well, here’s the lesson. Although set in the grass plant, bamboo become different because of his character.
Usability and how to express themselves bamboo, making it a different grass plant. In the life of any background, we in fact is not decisive, but how we seek to express their own potential, no matter our background.
That is what eventually makes us incredibly personal. Bamboo trees also teaches us about flexibility. We seldom see a bamboo collapsed. In the midst of the fall of other trees whirlwind attack, remained rigid stand of bamboo.
In addition to its strong roots, the trunk is also able to sway with the wind. As a result, in bad weather and high winds, trees and bamboo can be swayed to the rhythm of the voice hissed out the wind. While other trees that have a larger trunk, just not the strength to face the wind. This is called flexibility.
Bamboo gramineae families belong, is also called the giant grass berumpun and consists of a number of stems that grows gradually. Start bamboo shoots, young stem, which reaches up to the age of 4 adults? 5 years. bamboo rod shape-book or segmented. He’s also the hard-walled, and in each overgrown buds or branches.
Bamboo-shaped roots and rhizomes segmented. Each book will be covered with fibers and shoots that can grow as rods.
According to Star Nugroho landscape architect, bamboo tree is a unique plant that is similar to the type of grass. The growth is gradual, but very fast. “The tree has a tall stem. Leaves the impression that such grass has its own unique,” explains Star.
Star added, if we plant these trees in the garden, tropical shades will be created. Occupancy would have felt even more cool and comfortable. According to researchers from the Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Elizabeth A Widjaja, in Indonesia there are 160 species of bamboo. A total of 88 bamboo species of which are endemic or unique species of bamboo found in an area. All types of bamboo that has a different value for the benefit of human life.
In addition to housing needs and household utensils or decorative plants, bamboo is one type of tree that is very good for the environment. “As a function of best environmental conservationists, we can prove that whenever there is a bamboo grove there, certainly there are sources of water,” he said.
So many unique bamboo trees that we encountered. By type, there is a type of bamboo bamboo rope, bamboo shoots, bamboo Gombong, Wulung bamboo, Japanese bamboo, and bamboo china.

Beautiful Enhancer Tables & Chairs
Furniture November 23rd, 2009
CHOOSE complete with a desk chair is not hard work. However, sometimes these furniture sets did not seem as interesting as you see it in the catalog or store display.
If such a case, it’s easy. You just need to decorate with additional elements. Additional decorative elements for chairs and tables can be many things, like pillows or tablecloth.
“If you feel your new sofa or chair less attractive or if you want to make a long sofa or chair more trendy, small pillow accented with sarongs, colorful artistic and could give a different feel on the couch,” says interior designer Emmy Susianti.
Also, if you have a sofa which was initially soft, after all this time can be used sofa changing its form as well. Part where you lean back or sit on your part that often can form a basin which marks the foam on the damaged section.
“If indeed you do not have the budget to buy a new sofa, then do not force yourself to buy a new sofa. Simply re-decorating course. One way, yes it was, for example by adding a cushion to cover the basin area, “suggested an Emmy.
Do not forget to give these pillows with a glove that was funny and interesting. To better match, match with the theme of ethnic theme room, you can use batik pillow for example.
Meanwhile, interior design consultant Anggraeni Rani said that to create a beautiful impression on the couch, we can play with accessories like a sofa cushion (pad). Now, to bring the sofa cushion, there are some things that need attention. For example models, sizes, colors, and pillowcases.
Sofa cushions have a variety of models, such as balls, the crescent and star. There is also a sofa cushion or oval shaped box like a miniature pillow. Not only a sweet style, sofa cushion covers can also be equipped with image, motif, or even plain.
Sofa pillows may be placed in almost every room. Can in the living room, family room, bedrooms, or even the patio. Therefore, the selection model and pillow covers should be adjusted as a function of space and function rooms are definitely different.
In the living room’s atmosphere is more formal room, a sofa that is used most likely to shape the selected values so that the pillow is also more formal and simple, like a box or oval. Nevertheless, according to interior designer Erlavina, oval shape more suitable for long-carved chairs. “Therefore, choose the square with embroidery motif on the glove so it will look more beautiful on the couch,” he suggested.
Meanwhile, in the family room, which was chosen because it tends shaped sofa to relax, then the selection of pillows should be capable of providing a family atmosphere, warm and familiar like funny shapes and colors that vary according to desire occupants. If the pillow is a funny shape, say like the shape of an animal like a doll, pillow need not be wrapped because it would eliminate glove elegance appearance. However, if the pillow is plain, a glove that was funny, sweet patterned or embroidered can be inserted to make the pillow look increasingly attractive.
To beautify the look of the pillow, the color scabbard is also worth noting. The selection of colors can be adjusted or contrasted with the color of the sofa. “Actually, the color of the pillow or a holster there are two alternatives to choose from. Can a color contrast or even color to compliment the sofa, “says Erlavina.
However, for a plain sofa or white, he suggested, select cushion sofa with bright colors, playing the motif, or embroidered. For big events, selected pillowcases are embroidered to create a better impression of the living room is more elegant and regal.
Architect and owner Anita Millennia Furniture Buntarman added, the presence of the couch cushions to give a touch of its own to minimize the impression of stiff on the couch. Flexibility could create the impression by presenting a pillow.
As a space filler accent, Anita said, the usual pillow chosen is the standard size, ie, between 35-55 cm. However, the size of sofa cushions should be tailored to the respective proportions of the sofa, also tastes cushion occupants of the house in order to look capable of providing a neat and attractive scenery, not the opposite.
In addition to the shape and size of pillow, motifs and color gloves should also be considered because both would affect the look of the room where the sofa couch located. Yes, by the harmony of space, solid match to compliment it deserves to be realized. However, do not need to set one color to the room because the color of their derivatives or mix and match any colors that deserves to bear the harmonization sweet.
