100% Smoke-free

World No Tobacco Day 2007
To: manager of public places

Scientific research about the harms of second-hand tobacco smoke has been accumulating for over 20 years. There is no doubt that breathing second-hand tobacco smoke (SHS) is very dangerous to human health, causing cancer and many serious respiratory and cardiovascular diseases in children and adults, often leading to premature death.

The World Health Organization (WHO) has concluded that there is no safe level of human exposure to second-hand tobacco smoke, and the upcoming WHO policy recommendations on protection from exposure to second-hand tobacco smoke clearly state that the establishment of 100% smoke-free areas is the only way to protect the public to such exposure and its consequences.

The right to clean air, free from tobacco-smoke is a human right.

Therefore, we ask you to defend and protect the health of employers, workers and the public by implementing the necessary legislation that will make all public indoor working places, including bars and restaurants 100% smoke-free. We think this is a critical step to protecting our health and that of our children.

Kepada: pengelola tempat-tempat umum

Penelitian ilmiah tentang bahaya perokok pasif telah dilakukan selama lebih dari 20 tahun. Tidak ada keraguan bahwa merokok secara pasif sangat berbahaya bagi kesehatan manusia, menyebabkan kanker dan banyak penyakit pernafasan serta kardiovaskuler pada anak-anak serta orang dewasa, dan tidak jarang mempercepat kematian.

Organisasi Kesehatan Dunia (WHO) telah berkesimpulan bahwa asap rokok, sekecil apapun jumlahnya, tetaplah berbahaya. Rekomendasi WHO tentang hal ini mengatakan bahwa satu-satunya cara untuk melindungi masyarakat dari bahaya asap rokok adalah dengan memberlakukan peraturan 100% bebas asap rokok bagi tempat-tempat umum.

Hak untuk mendapatkan udara bersih, bebas dari asap rokok adalah hak umat manusia.

Dengan demikian, kami meminta anda untuk melindungi kesehatan pegawai, pekerja dan masyarakat umum dengan cara menerapkan peraturan yang 100% melarang merokok di tempat-tempat umum. Kami percaya, langkah ini adalah langkah yang sangat penting untuk melindungi kesehatan kita dan anak-anak kita semua.

TDK Tremor S80

question :
Is it possible to get ' sweet spot ' if we listen music in bed room ,
with position of laying down in bed same as we listen music with position of sitting ?

answer :
Yes, with TDK TREMOR S80

Introducing for the S80s makes much of the dynamics of the NXT-licensed flat panel technology. The most commonly heard claim is that they have an unusually large sweet spot. This simply means that you don't have to be perfectly situated in front of the satellites to enjoy the full, stereo sound.

The sound is much bigger than you'd expect from the size, and not just in terms of frequency range. The sweet spot is enormous. You can move about a good bit and be pleasantly enveloped in the stereo sound. I quickly got used to it and quickly enjoyed it.

All the elements are there clear highs, a solid midrange, and respectable bass
TDK's strong suit is treble. The highs are smooth and honest. They also stay clean at high volumes without getting screechy or abrasive.

Modification part 1

For you who have Kawasaki ZX 130 (baby ninja), I'll guarantee must be not satisfied with front disc brake standard from kawasaki, cause front disc brake not work perfectly.

After we hit handle front disc brake, this ‘baby ninja’ not stop immediately, so we must hit and release handle front disc brake to helping motorcycle stop perfectly.

'me' and 'baby ninja'




To solve the problem replace ‘standard disc brake’ with ‘giga disc brake’ (diameter 300 mm minimum).

Material :

  • PSM 300 for suzuki smash (Rp 350.000)
  • Bracket ( Rp 100.000 – Rp 150.000. depend on bracket material )

Sibilance Killer

What is Sibilance :

  • A coloration that resembles or exaggerates the vocal s-sound (taken from http://www.soundvideo.com)
  • Sound systems with excessive treble response will over-emphasize the "s" or "ch" sounds and produce a hissing sound (taken from www.hotdrum.org/glossary-terms/terminology-8.shtml )

Play track 3 – fly me to the moon - from Susan Wong Album 'Close to You' in your car , and listen ..

If the sexy vocal of Susan Wong hurt your ear (specially when the vocal “s” sound) then you need a sibilance killer for your tweeter.

diagram :


To determine Resistor value, use the following :

1.25 * tweeter impedance

Example if tweeter impedance 4 ohms or 8 ohms:

1.25 * 4 ohms = 5 ohms (using 5 watt resistor )

1.25 * 8 ohms = 10 ohms (using 5 watt resistor )

Capasitor value are 20 Microfarads
