Refurbished Computers Are Turning Green
beda refurbish dan bekas
Emissions of carbon dioxide help to trap heat within the Earth’s atmosphere that would normally be released into space. The result of this increased heat is called Global Warming if you are of the liberal persuasion and Dramatic Climate Change if you are conservative. The end result is the same; The Earth will continue to heat up where it should be cold, and cool off where it should be warm. This will be a mild inconvenience to most where it was warm, but the coldest areas such as the poles of the planet will see bigger change in the form of dumping massive amounts of ice into the ocean that will change the face of the planet. Computers are part of this larger problem.
Power plants, cars and factories lead the charge in changing the global environment, as do air conditioners, coal pits and all of the usual suspects. The computer as it is now is a part of the problem. A personal computer can use between 150 and 600 watts of power, which isn’t much compared to the damage of a coal pit but is a great deal more than a television or a CD player. A high end computer if left on constantly can add over $50 per month on an electric bill, and send hundreds of pounds of CO2 into the atmosphere over the course of a year.
The very same lead that must be removed from gasoline is present in a computer in large quantity. This is negligible in a single PC, or even in a city of PCs, but globally this is extremely toxic to the environment when they are disposed of. Although many parts are converted into reused Pcs and Refurbished Laptops most old Computers wind up in a landfill and must be destroyed. This is a lot of lead to deal with.
Although most US based PC manufactures are ignoring the problem, Europe has stepped up to the challenge of a Green PC. Lead-free computing is the goal in Europe, and many regulations are being put in place to help make this happen. Dell Inc. is pressuring its industry to create computer recycling programs that can help in this issue, and they have pledged to plant a tree for every computer they sell. Concern for the environment is not new to Dell Inc as in 2004 they agreed to recycle Computers from any manufacturer as long as the buyer purchased the new hardware from Dell.
PC World is in the process of launching a Green PC that will focus on decreasing the power usage of its personal computer. While this is a strong start towards helping the environment, most of the environmental damage done by a PC occurs before the end user even buys it. A 2004 UN University report found that the average PC burned through ten times its own weight in raw material during the manufacturing stage. This would mean that 75% of the environmental concern is manufacturing. As most manufacturing occurs outside the united states in the form of hardware such as motherboards, cards and cases then it becomes clear that a resolution in the united states would only be the beginning. It would become necessary for companies such as Dell and Gateway to refuse to do business with firms that manufactured PC hardware in a manner that was not environmentally friendly. Of course the problem there would be that Computers would increase in cost almost immediately and market wide.

Avoid the Foods That Cause Gout
Gout is a form of arthritis that causes inflammation, pain, sourness and swelling of the joints, also reducing their mobility. It mostly it affects the joints of the lower body limbs, such as toes, heels, ankles and knees, but it can also affect the joints of the upper body. Gout sometimes affects skin and soft tissue like muscles and tendons, causing swelling and rigidity. There are many factors that contribute to the occurrence and the development of Gout, such as genetic predisposition to the disease, renal insufficiency, inappropriate diet and lack of proper exercise. Among all these triggers of Gout, the quantity and the type of food consumed seem to play a very important role.
In the past, Gout was referred to as “the disease of kings”, as it mostly affected rich people. The high incidence of Gout among the rich, noble families in the past is explained by the fact that they had better access to expensive, exotic Foods that in present are known to facilitate the development of the disease. Today, many people are still confronted with Gout as a result of improper diet, unaware of the damage that some Foods Cause to the organism. Apart from Foods that Cause Gout, another important factor in the development of the disease is obesity.
Gout is mainly caused by the crystallization of a substance called uric acid in the bloodstream, causing arteries to block. In normal quantities, uric acid is neutral to the organism. However, when in excess, it may Cause a lot of damage. Uric acid is a residual product formed in the synthesis of purine. Purine is a substance that resides in fat meats, fish, some dairy products and vegetables. Foods that Cause Gout are rich in saturated fats and purines, therefore contributing to the excessive secretion of uric acid. Among the Foods that Cause Gout, the most dangerous are considered to be red meats and some fish. Beef, pork, lamb and seafood should be avoided when suffering from Gout. Furthermore, healthy people should control their intake of such Foods in order to prevent the acquiring of Gout. Other Foods like chicken meat, low dairy, grains, green vegetables and fruits are well tolerated among people who suffer from Gout.
In order to ameliorate the symptoms of Gout, Foods that Cause Gout should be excluded from the diet in favor of healthy food. Also, the consumption of alcohol should be reduced, as it increases the amount of uric acid produced by the organism. Smoking can aggravate the symptoms of Gout too, slowing the natural process of healing and interfering in the right circulation of the blood.
By drinking plenty of water you will help the body in eliminating the excess of uric acid. It is strongly recommended to drink at least 2 liters of water a day. Also, try to reduce the amount of saturated fats from your diet and eat more carbohydrate rich Foods such as cereal, pasta and bread. Consume plenty of fruits, as they contain lots of important vitamins and minerals. Fruits like apples, oranges, nectarines and lemons should be a part of your daily menu.

Choosing Foods For Your Special Event
Choosing the suitable menu for a Special Event is usually just as important as Choosing a location. Food can communicate a theme, convey a feeling or set the mood of an entire night. If you are planning a high-class extravaganza, hot dogs and beer might not be appropriate. On the other hand, they might be the perfect choice for a birthday party at the lake. Taking wonderful care in planning a menu shows your people how much you appreciate them, and an incredible meal can help make a special day even more memorable.
If you are planning a birthday party For Your child, an interactive meal can be a fun activity For Your people. Rather than slaving away in the kitchen all day or spending countless dollars ordering pizzas, you can save time and money by letting the people make their own special creations. One fun idea is to prepare a multitude of toppings and let the young children make their own bagel or English muffin pizzas. They will have a blast piling on weird combinations of toppings, and they will enjoy feeling like grown-ups in the kitchen.
For a more formal situation like a holiday party, finger Foods is usually great for mingling people, and they can be great topics of conversation. The obligatory finger sandwich can be spiced up by adding your own special pesto or cheese spread to an already tried and true recipe. Experiment with different ingredients in the weeks prior to the party, and Test them out on your family. You will know when you get the reaction you are looking for, and you might end up spending much of the party writing down your recipe For Your people.
Planning a menu for a wedding can be quite stressful, especially when you are not sure exactly how many people will be attending. The rule of thumb is that too much is better than not enough, even if it means having a lot of Food left over at the end of the night. You can choose to have a buffet-style dinner, or you can have a set menu For Your people. It is important to consider your guests with special dietary needs. You should have vegetarian and low-sodium alternatives to your main courses, and you should have a heart-healthy menu for those who must avoid Foods with high fat contents.
Before attempting a large-scale meal, you must make all of the dishes more than once to perfect your recipes. Your goal is to have people asking for more even after it all runs out. Test your creations on a variety of people and make adjustments according to their suggestions. When cooking Food from your own recipes, it is important to remember the details of what you did every time you make it. That way you will know what went wrong when something turns out horrible, and more importantly what went right when you receive raving reviews.
Planning portions is the most important part of catering your own party. Though most recipes tell you how many people they will feed, it is best to err on the side of caution. If a recipe feeds eight, you might want to count it as six or seven, depending on how many people you expect. Plan that half of your people will want to go back for seconds. If you know that one dish will be a favorite, be sure to make extra. Though the green beans may be the healthier option, you can usually bet that the cheesecake will go a lot quicker. Keep in mind that the greater the variety, the more people you will please, so even if you are a steamed vegetable lover, you should probably prepare some beefy options For Your less than health conscious people.

The History And Evolution Of Banana Hybrids
Bananas are the world’s favorite fruit and many nations depend on banana trees to supply its citizens with this delicious food product to save them from famines. Bananas are available on markets year round and are rich in vitamins, minerals, and fiber, containing only small hollow seed that are infertile. Ornamental bananas, ‘Musa ensete’ and ‘Musa nana’ are inedible but in high demand for landscaping.
India is the world’s largest producer of bananas and Alexander the great found them growing there in 327 BC, when he conquered India. Soldiers of Alexander the great returned to Greece and Persia with bulbs from banana plants, ‘Musa accuminata, ’ where they were distributed and planted.
Antonius Musa, the personal physician of Augustus Caesar, imported the first banana trees, ‘Musa accuminata, ’ to Rome from Africa in 63 BC. Later, slaves from Portugal brought bananas to Europe from Africa in the early 1400’s. Even though the banana is believed to have originated in India, (Eastern Asia), it was established in Africa and Europe as a staple food product many centuries ago and came into North America through Spanish missionaries.
Those first bananas that people knew in antiquity were not sweet like the bananas we know today, but were cooking bananas or plantain bananas with a starchy taste and composition. The bright yellow bananas that we know today were discovered as a mutation from the plantain banana by a Jamaican, Jean Francois Poujot, in the year 1836. He found this hybrid mutation growing in his banana tree plantation with a sweet flavor and a yellow color-instead of green or red, and not requiring cooking like the plantain banana. The rapid establishment of this new exotic fruit was welcomed worldwide, and it was massively grown for world markets.
Bananas are the world’s best selling fruit, outselling both apples and citrus; each American is estimated to eat 25 pounds of fruit every day. The ‘Cavendish’ banana is the most popular banana in the united states and over 400 cultivars of bananas are available on world markets. The leaves of banana trees are used as wrappers for steaming other foods inside, and the banana flower is also edible.
Each banana comes from a flower maturing into groups of 10-20 bananas called “hands” that circle the stalk, which collectively is called a ‘bunch. ’ The bananas can require one year to mature after flowering in the field, and then the mother banana plant dies. The plant is restored the following season by offshoots from the mother plant. An original cluster of banana trees can grow continuously for 100 years, but are generally replaced in banana tree plantations after 25 years. Bananas ripen best and develop more sweetness, if the bunch is removed from the tree, allowing the fruit to ripen off the tree in a shady place to slowly ripen.
The banana tree can grow up to 30 feet tall, and the trunk of the tree grows to a width at the base of over 1 foot. The trunk of the banana plant is made of overlapping sheaths and stems with new growth emerging from the center of the trunk. The size of bananas can range from a fruit the size of a football to one as small as a child’s finger. Some bananas taste sweet, some starchy and some ornamental bananas are loaded with large seed and are considered inedible. The color of ripe bananas can range from green, orange, brown, yellow, or variegated with white stripes.
Most banana trees available today are grown from “mother” bulbs by taking offsets that form shoots. Those can be replanted to multiply and increase a banana tree plantation. These banana sprouts that form at the base of the ‘mother’ bulb can be shipped around the world to many countries, being almost genetically identical to the original banana plant parent of 10, 000 years ago that mutated and stopped making seed and became the first naturally evolved hybrid.
Bananas are the largest exported fruit in the world, registering sales of 12 billion dollars a year for Chiquita and Dole. These bananas are imported into the united states from companies and plantations growing banana trees in India, South America and Africa. Many third world countries depend on the production of bananas to feed them as a major food staple, where they eat bananas 3 meals a day. Bananas are rich in sugars such as sucrose, glucose, and fructose, as well as fiber and special minerals containing potassium, phosphorous, magnesium and iron. Bananas contain tryptophan, a body protein that is converted to serotonin, a mood enhancer. They also are high in Vitamin A, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, and Vitamin C. Doctors claim that eating bananas can cut the risk of sudden stroke by 40%, as published in the New England Journal of Medicine.

India is the world’s largest producer of bananas and Alexander the great found them growing there in 327 BC, when he conquered India. Soldiers of Alexander the great returned to Greece and Persia with bulbs from banana plants, ‘Musa accuminata, ’ where they were distributed and planted.
Antonius Musa, the personal physician of Augustus Caesar, imported the first banana trees, ‘Musa accuminata, ’ to Rome from Africa in 63 BC. Later, slaves from Portugal brought bananas to Europe from Africa in the early 1400’s. Even though the banana is believed to have originated in India, (Eastern Asia), it was established in Africa and Europe as a staple food product many centuries ago and came into North America through Spanish missionaries.
Those first bananas that people knew in antiquity were not sweet like the bananas we know today, but were cooking bananas or plantain bananas with a starchy taste and composition. The bright yellow bananas that we know today were discovered as a mutation from the plantain banana by a Jamaican, Jean Francois Poujot, in the year 1836. He found this hybrid mutation growing in his banana tree plantation with a sweet flavor and a yellow color-instead of green or red, and not requiring cooking like the plantain banana. The rapid establishment of this new exotic fruit was welcomed worldwide, and it was massively grown for world markets.
Bananas are the world’s best selling fruit, outselling both apples and citrus; each American is estimated to eat 25 pounds of fruit every day. The ‘Cavendish’ banana is the most popular banana in the united states and over 400 cultivars of bananas are available on world markets. The leaves of banana trees are used as wrappers for steaming other foods inside, and the banana flower is also edible.
Each banana comes from a flower maturing into groups of 10-20 bananas called “hands” that circle the stalk, which collectively is called a ‘bunch. ’ The bananas can require one year to mature after flowering in the field, and then the mother banana plant dies. The plant is restored the following season by offshoots from the mother plant. An original cluster of banana trees can grow continuously for 100 years, but are generally replaced in banana tree plantations after 25 years. Bananas ripen best and develop more sweetness, if the bunch is removed from the tree, allowing the fruit to ripen off the tree in a shady place to slowly ripen.
The banana tree can grow up to 30 feet tall, and the trunk of the tree grows to a width at the base of over 1 foot. The trunk of the banana plant is made of overlapping sheaths and stems with new growth emerging from the center of the trunk. The size of bananas can range from a fruit the size of a football to one as small as a child’s finger. Some bananas taste sweet, some starchy and some ornamental bananas are loaded with large seed and are considered inedible. The color of ripe bananas can range from green, orange, brown, yellow, or variegated with white stripes.
