TB - HIV / AIDS Global Threats.

Diseases Tuberkolosis (tubercle baccilus or TB) not only become a major health problem for developing countries, but is seen as a threat to global public health world.


Number of TB patients in Indonesia is the third most countries in the world after India and China, with the number of patients in about 10% of the total number of people with TB in the world.

Each year there are estimated 539,000 new cases and 101,000 deaths of people. TB incidence cases with positive acid resistant bacillus around 110 per 100,000 population diperburuk his situation by the threat of HIV infection, so it is increasingly difficult. HIV and TB are diseases that kill and integrated its second cause of disease for people with bad effects.

In the countries with high prevalence of TB infected by TB germs (in the body there are TB bacteria in konsidi dormant or inactive). They are not sick, because the resistance body in good condition. However, when the body's resistance had fallen (or was damaged by AIDS), the bacteria in the body will rise as a result reaktifasi endogen, and trigger the occurrence of TB.

Similarly, those who are infected with HIV, is very open opportunities in TB infected eksogen.

The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates the HIV infection in the past year, triggering at least 1.4 million cases of active TB, which should not happen. Have someone with the HIV-positive and infected with TB, has 30 times more easily they fell ill with TB, compared the health status of HIV-negative.

One of the issues that concern from the "blend" between TB and AIDS disease is the occurrence of resistance ganda (multidrug resistance, MDR), which became one of the main issues in the handling of TB in the world right now.

Previous TB disease can be cured with the usual standard treatment regularly for six months. However, people with MDR-TB must be treated with water and injected six types of drugs, at least for two years, with the cost of which can be hundreds of times more expensive compared with the previous standard TB treatment.

Scientific journals such as Harvard Public Health Review even when the treatment of MDR-TB can trigger side effects, from acute feeling of nausea, relief process suffer from deafness, and depression conditions.

WHO said the virus is derived from 12 patients Mexico, to 12 patients suffering from the disease caused by a new variant of swine flu virus.

Different genetic
During the regular flu vaccine can be used to protect people from the H1N1 virus attack. However, a new virus variant has a different genetic arrangement. Genetic analysis showed, that new variants is a combination of flu virus of swine, human, and poultry.

U.S. health experts are developing vaccines against new variants of flu virus is. However, it is estimated that the new vaccine can be produced for several months longer.

The facts show, the majority of flu patients who died aged around 25 to 45 years. "We realize this issue very seriously," said Mexican President Felipe Calderón.

Before the flare, such as a smart phone now, can dikata Nokia is a single player for smartphone. Starting with the emergence Communikator Nokia 9210, and 3660, 7610, 6600, 9500, to E90.

BlackBerry.
For now only have two Nokia smart phone is still relatively new, namely E71 and E65, but its presence is not so fenomenal such as E90, and 9500 series. No more long queue, because at the same time Research In Motion (rim) is also the Blackberry, Apple launches iPhone

Marketing is very fantastic Blackberry.
For the global market so far has been Rim sell 25 million units Blackberry. Year 2009, the Canadian vendor is planning to sell 50 million units of various types throughout the world.

Rim considered charming moment when utilizing the internet boom around the world. Many people want the presence of the device that can access email without the need to go to the web.

Touch screen technology, using its "capacitive touchscreen that utilize static electricity caused when the finger touches the layer. This causes the layer touching the mobile phone is very responsive with a light touch.

Other advantage is the accelerometer sensor layer to change the display automatically, proximity sensor that can automatically turn on or turn off the phone when the hands come up, scratch-resistant layer, and a light sensor that automatically set the brightness level layer of the atmosphere around.

A New Earth


How happens if there is a planet similar to earth? Is there life there? Will the man can become the life of another?
Curiosity about life than the earth, the human mind tickle. Moreover, for the scientists who work daily in the field of research and observation of other possibilities in space.


Surprising news, as well as a starting point for further investigation of life outside the earth, is the latest findings about the alleged existence of factors that support life on the planet Gliese 581 and Gliese 581 e d.

a University of origin Astrofisika Geneva, Switzerland, Michel Mayor, the findings reveal that during the press conference at the University of Herfordshire, Tuesday (21 / 4), in the National Astronomy and Science European solar system.

Gliese 581 e, said Mayor, has similarities with the earth in terms of size. Meanwhile, Gliese 581 d, has a character similar to Earth. Consider symptoms, the second planet of your entry in habitable zone (can be settled) can potentially be inhabited by the living creatures. Second planet is located in the constellation Libra.

"The planet Earth Berbatu similar in lokasik which enables living creatures to develop this research eksoplanet is a milestone," said the Mayor. Eksoplanet is for a planet-earth-like planet outside solar system sun.

Planet e gliese 581 large-sized 1.9 times the Earth. During this time, the planet outside the solar system the Sun was found that if the planet Jupiter with Jupiter dianalogi Football Games, the 1000 Earth can accommodate that as much as marbles.

Although the potential candidates to be Earth-like planet, Gliese 581, however e is too close to the solar system, The Gliese stars. The planet has a very hot temperature for the continuance of living beings.

How about the chance Planet Gliese 581 d? The astronom enter a planet that is found in 2007 in the habitable zone (can be settled). Gliese 581 d location of the central solar system, allowing water to melt the surface of this planet.

Koloega Mayor, Stephane Udry, said, Gliese 581 d is not only the most likely form of stones. "The planet that the oceans could have a broad and deep. This planet is a serious candidate who has a spare planet's water, "said Stephane.

LED, Lights Save Energy


The light is so useful when night comes. The atmosphere felt intimidating if you do not have lights shining. But to make the night feel alive, is also required electric energy is not small. In fact, thousands of dollars to the burden that must be paid by each citizen to pay a monthly electricity account.

To increase its charges, it is necessary to choose energy efficient lighting. One is LED (light emitting diode). The lamp is a semiconductor that change electrical energy into light. LED device is a hard and dense (solid-state component), so superior in terms of resilience.


LED with different fluorescent and incandescent lamps. Fluorescent lamp or incandescent lamp using filamen thin glass globe in the empty air. Electric current flows and heat filamen. At very high temperatures, glowing light on the filamen. When bolam oxygen leak and the filamen heat, the chemical reaction will occur so that the lamp is broken and can not be used again.

While Fluorescent or neon lamp requires mercury vapor to produce ultraviolet rays (UV light). Sinar is absorbed phosphorus that coat the inside of glass so the light will turn. Heat generated slightly more than the bulb, but still have the energy lost when processing ultraviolet rays into light kasat eyes.

Incandescent and fluorescent lights not in use after its bolam broken, but not so with the LED. The lamp is a type of solid-state lighting (SSL) and use the solid as a source of lighting is not so easily be damaged if the drop or bolam its broken. Placed with a collection of LED distance meeting to make the light brighter. One lamp can survive more than 30 thousand hours, and even reach 100 thousand hours.

LED only has a 4 color kasat eye, ie red, yellow, green, and blue. Rays to produce perfect white, the color of the light spectrum are combined. The most common color is merging red, yellow, green.

This lamp comes from the semiconductor material, not manufactured out of carbon material. When the LED is used throughout the world, the total electric energy for lighting can be reduced to 50%. Offset carbon emissions generated world could reach 300 million tons per day.
