SPICY FOOD FROM INDONESIA

The Food of Hell from Indonesia

Famous as one of the best tropical countries, Indonesia provides tons of uniqueness and excitement. Its nature, culture, and art always bring millions of tourist each year. However, this time we are going to talk about one thing, Indonesia’s cuisine, in particular Sambal.

Sambal or sambel is infamous among tourist as the food of hell for its undeniable ability to make the consumer produces tears and sweat when eating. Produced using chili as its main ingredient, sambal is indeed taste extremely spicy.

Sambal is made by grinding ‘cabai’ or chili, along with several complements such as onion, cherry, tomato, ‘terasi’, sugar, and salt. The ingredients are grinded using traditional tool made usually from wood or plastic. The texture is smooth with a vibrant color of green and red, depending on which chili you use.

Infamous among tourists for its spiciness, many tourists avoid it. However, some of them are challenged and try to eat it. Those who dare to try usually will get stomach ache or turn very red and sweaty in the face. Though super spicy, locals eat it in almost daily basis as their main meal.

Many foods in Indonesia using rendang as a spice ingredient complement. Last year, the CNN news site announced a typical Indonesian rendang as the world's number one best-seller food. This year, CNN re-issued a list of 50 world's best food through 35,000 voting on Facebook social media. The results of voting on the facebook page says that rendang is the best food in the world because of its unique spicy flavor

Not only in Indonesia, sambal can come from another country like Malaysia, Brunei, Singapore, Sri Lanka, and others. In Indonesia, sambal can be varied from different places. Such as Sambal Dabu-dabu from Manado that look same with Salsa sauce from Mexico, sambal Penyet, sambal Pencit from Java that use mango, and others.

Every sambal have their own uniqueness taste. Locals usually created or innovate their own sambal to fit their tongue or ability spice. Sambal is the perfect additional for Indonesian food.

Wrong Words :

1. The word "plastic" in paragraph 3. It should be made from stone.
2. The word "cherry" in paragraph 3. Sambal doesn't made from cherry.
3. The word "infamous" in paragraph 2 and 4. Sambal is a famous among tourists.
4. The word "of" and "from" in the title. It have to be written like, "The Food of Hell from Indonesia."
5. The phrase "main meal" in paragraph 4, Sambal is not Indonesian people's main meal.
6. The phrase "super spicy" in paragraph 4. Not all sambals are spicy.
7. The word "smooth" in paragraph 3. Not all sambals are smooth.

ANTOINE LAURENT LAVOISIER

ANTOINE LAVOISIER

Antoine-Laurent de Lavoisier was a French nobleman and chemist who was central to the 18th-century chemical revolution and who had a large influence on both the history of chemistry and the history of biology. He is widely considered in popular literature as the "father of modern chemistry".

Lavoisier was a powerful member of a number of aristoctatic councils, and an administrator of the Ferme generale. The Ferme générale was one of the most hated components of the Ancien Regime because of the profits it took at the expense of the state, the secrecy of the terms of its contracts, and the violence of its armed agents. All of these political and economic activities enabled him to fund his scientific research. At the height of the French Revolution, he was charged with tax fraud and selling adulterated tobacco, and was guilotined.

Early life and education

Antoine-Laurent Lavoisier was born to a wealthy family of the nobility in Paris on 26 August 1743. The son of an attorney at the Parliament of Paris, he inherited a large fortune at the age of five upon the death of his mother. Lavoisier began his schooling at the College des Quatre-Nations, University of Paris in Paris in 1754 at the age of 11. In his last two years (1760–1761) at the school, his scientific interests were aroused, and he studied chemistry, botany, astronomy, and mathematics. In the philosophy class he came under the tutelage of Abbe Nicolas Louis de Lacaille, a distinguished mathematician and observational astronomer who imbued the young Lavoisier with an interest in meteorological observation, an enthusiasm which never left him. Lavoisier entered the school of law, where he received a bachelor's degree in 1763 and a licentiate in 1764. Lavoisier received a law degree and was admitted to the bar, but never practiced as a lawyer. However, he continued his scientific education in his spare time.

Early scientific work

Lavoisier's education was filled with the ideals of the French Enlightenment of the time, and he was fascinated by Pierre Maquer's dictionary of chemistry. He attended lectures in the natural sciences. Lavoisier's devotion and passion for chemistry were largely influenced by Etienne Condillac, a prominent French scholar of the 18th century. His first chemical publication appeared in 1764. From 1763 to 1767, he studied geology under Jean-Etienne Guettard. In collaboration with Guettard, Lavoisier worked on a geological survey of Alsace-Lorraine in June 1767. In 1764 he read his first paper to the French Academy of Sciences, France's most elite scientific society, on the chemical and physical properties of gypsum (hydrated calsium sulfate), and in 1766 he was awarded a gold medal by the King for an essay on the problems of urban street lighting. In 1768 Lavoisier received a provisional appointment to the Academy of Sciences. In 1769, he worked on the first geological map of France.

Contributions to chemistry

Oxygen Theory of Combustion

During late 1772 Lavoisier turned his attention to the phenomenon of combustion, the topic on which he was to make his most significant contribution to science. He reported the results of his first experiments on combustion in a note to the Academy on 20 October, in which he reported that when phosphorus burned, it combined with a large quantity of air to produce acid spirit of phosphorus, and that the phosphorus increased in weight on burning. In a second sealed note deposited with the Academy a few weeks later (1 November) Lavoisier extended his observations and conclusions to the burning of sulfur and went on to add that "what is observed in the combustion of sulfur and phosphorus may well take place in the case of all substances that gain in weight by combustion and calcination: and I am persuaded that the increase in weight of metallic calces is due to the same cause, oxygen"

Metal combustion scheme with oxygen

Pioneer of stoichiometry

Lavoisier's researches included some of the first truly quantitative chemical experiments. He carefully weighed the reactants and products of a chemical reaction in a sealed glass vessel so that no gases could escape, which was a crucial step in the advancement of chemistry.[36] In 1774, he showed that, although matter can change its state in a chemical reaction, the total mass of matter is the same at the end as at the beginning of every chemical change. Thus, for instance, if a piece of wood is burned to ashes, the total mass remains unchanged if gaseous reactants and products are included. Lavoisier's experiments supported the law of conservation of mass.

Legacy

Compsition and Chemical Change

Lavoisier also did early research in physical chemistry and thermodynamics in joint experiments with Laplace. They used a calorimeter to estimate the heat evolved per unit of carbon dioxide produced, eventually finding the same ratio for a flame and animals, indicating that animals produced energy by a type of combustion reaction.

Statue of Lavoisier, at Hotel de Ville, Paris

He was essentially a theorist, and his great merit lay in his capacity to take over experimental work that others had carried out—without always adequately recognizing their claims—and by a rigorous logical procedure, reinforced by his own quantitative experiments, expounding the true explanation of the results. He completed the work of Black, Priestley and Cavendish, and gave a correct explanation of their experiments.

KILLER WHALE

The Killer Whale

By : Muhamad Fikri Nurohman / X-Science 2

About the Orca

Orcas, or killer whales, are the largest of the dolphins and one of the world's most powerful predators. They feast on marine mammals such as seals, sea lions, and even whales, employing teeth that can be four inches long. They are known to grab seals right off the ice. They also eat fish, squid, and seabirds.

General Knowledge

COMMON NAME : Orca (Killer Whale)

SCIENTIFIC NAME : Orcinus orca

TYPE : Mammals

DIET : Carnivores

GROUP NAME: : Pod

AVERAGE LIFESPAN IN THE WILD : 50 to 80 years

SIZE : 23 to 32 ft

WEIGHT: Up to 6 tons

Classification

KINGDOM: Animal (Animalia)

PHYLUM: Vertebrate (Chordata)

CLASS: Mammal (Mammalia)

ORDER: Marine mammal (Cetacea)

FAMILY: Oceanic dolphin (Delphinidae)

GENUS: Killer whale genus (Orcinus)

SPECIES: Killer whale (Orca)

Hunting and Communication

Though they often frequent cold, coastal waters, orcas can be found from the polar regions to the Equator.

Orcas hunt in deadly pods, family groups of up to 40 individuals. There appears to be both resident and transient pod populations of orcas. These different groups may prey on different animals and use different techniques to catch them. Resident pods tend to prefer fish, while transient pods target marine mammals. All pods use effective, cooperative hunting techniques that some liken to the behavior of wolf packs.

Whales make a wide variety of communicative sounds, and each pod has distinctive noises that its member will recognize even at a distance. They use echolocation to communicate and hunt, making sounds that travel underwater until they encounter objects, then bounce back, revealing their location, size, and shape.

Reproduction and Conservation

Orcas are protective of their young, and other adolescent females often assist the mother in caring for them. Mothers give birth every three to ten years, after a 17-month pregnancy.

Orcas are immediately recognizable by their distinctive black-and-white coloring and are the intelligent, trainable stars of many aquarium shows. Orcas have never been extensively hunted by humans.

Life Cycle

FEMALE

Mature at age 10.

Can live up to 90 years old.

Oldest female orca is 103 years old.

MALE

Mature at age 15.

Can live up to 40 years old.

Oldest male orca is 59 years old.

Another Fact

Though called killer whales, orcas aren't whales; they are the largest dolphin species.

In Argentina, orcas hurl themselves on-shore to grab sea lion pups.

In the Antarctic, pod members cooperate to make large waves that wash seals from ice floes

Whalers call the orca the "killer of the whales." It preys on sperm, gray, fin, humpback, and other whales.

QUESTION :
1. Why does killer whale is classified into groups of dolphins, not into groups of whales?

Then the step mother disguising herself as an old women who sold a basket of poisoned apples and went to the cottage. In the cottage, the seven dwarfs warned Snow White to not open the door to the stranger.

The step mother finally arrived to the cottage and began to offer Snow White an apple. Snow White refused to open the door but the step mother kept persuade and finally Snow White opened the door and brought an apple then she ate it. So Snow White fallen down with the poisoned apple beside her.

In the afternoon, when the seven dwarfs came home, they were surprised with Snow White who laid down on the floor with pale face and a poisoned apple beside her. The seven dwarfs were sad seeing the Snow White was dying but not die yet. Then the seven dwarfs decided to make a beautiful bed made from a crystal coffin to make Snow White keep alive.

Day by day, the seven dwarfs waited for the miracle came when Snow White suddenly woke up. Then one day, there was a wanderer who actually a prince from far away kingdom saw a beautiful lady was laid down on crystal bed. The wanderer asked the dwarfs what was happened and the dwarfs told him the story.

Heard the Snow White's story, the princes decided to carry her to his Castle and asked the doctor to help her. Then the prince kissed her to show his intention. But suddenly Snow White was back to life. The fact was that the prince's kiss broke the spell. Then the prince asked Snow White to marry him.

Finally, Snow White lived happily in a great castle. But from time to time, she was drawn back to visit the little cottage down in the forest.

STUDENT LEADERSHIP TRAINING

Hello, guys!

Now, I will share my experience during Student Leadership Training....

What is leadership?

A simple definition of leadership is the act of motivating a group of people to act towards achieving a common goal. Put even more simply, the leader is the inspiration and director of the action. He / she is the person in the group that possesses the combination of personality and leadership skills that makes others want to follow his / her direction.

At Thursday, September 21^st2017, My school, Senior High School 3 Bandung holds a Student Leadership Training. This event was held at the Infantry Armament Center (in Indonesian = Pussenif).

On the first day (Thursday, September 21^st2017), all of the students were lining up at the ceremony field to attend the opening ceremony. There we saw the training coaches for the first time. 288 students were divided into 10 groups consisting of 4 groups of boy and 6 groups of girl. On 9 a.m, the ceremony held. In the ceremony, students are briefed on the Pussenif and the training rules.

After the ceremony completed, all of the students were entering a big hall located near the field. There we were introduced a jargon (encouraging words). The first teaching materials delivered by Mr. Aat. He explained well about how important leadership is. After that, our headmaster explained what leadership is.

On 11.30 a.m, we had a lunch. Before had a lunch, we had to sing before eating. According to the rules, when eating, our body must be upright. Spoon that comes to the mouth. The coaches only gave us 5 minutes to finished our lunch.

In the afternoon, we were taught the marching lines. Furthermore, in the evening, we were given teaching materials till 10 pm. After that, we went to the barracks and slept. However, 1 hour later there was the sound of sirens waking us up. We were told to go to the front of the barracks to row back and get a consequences.

On the second day (Friday, September 22^nd2017), we woke up early morning at 4 am. Muslim students must go to the mosque to pray and listening to a lecture. After that, we collected in the field to do gymnastics morning. Continue with the line marching practice until 10 am.

After we finished the marching practice, we went back to the barracks to toke a bath and then went to the mosque for Friday prayers.

In the afternoon, we prepare to go to Taman Makam Pahlawan. Acording to the plan, in that place we will hold a night caraka. We brought two candles and some money to buy some water.

Right at 5 pm, we went there. We walked down the lane while singing the song of the spirits. After a distance of 2 km, we got there at around 6 pm. Then, the muslims pray at the mosque near from it place.

Night caraka event started at 7 pm. Before the peak of the event, we get a briefing from the coach about the rules of the game. First, we are given norrit to make dirty faces, its function is as a disguise tool. Furthermore, we line up according to their respective groups.

So, that's My story about Student Leadership Training.....
