Information Networking in Nightlife Internet surpasses
David Lusseau of the University of Otago studying a group of 64 bottlenose dolphins during the time span of seven years. (1) He found among them the existence of a social order similar to the one in humans and human-made networks. Lusseau mathematical study published in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society. (2)
Many complex networks, including human societies, have characteristics that allow rapid exchange of information among its members.
The study by New Zealand researchers shows that the animal community is also structured in such a way that allows for transmitting the information quickly and efficiently. Long-lived creatures like gorillas, deer, elephants, and bottlenose dolphins depend on their environment in the delivery of information.
In the observation-observation, Lusseau focusing on members of the flock which is more often seen together. He realized that this group consisted mostly of adult females, and they serve as centers to deliver information to the community.
To measure the flow of information within a system, it is enough to look at the points through which the center's information flow and calculate the number of elements required in the journey from starting point to end point. Lusseau using this measurement technique, called the "diameter". When the results obtained using this method compared with the data disclosed by the Internet, he found himself confronted with the fact that amazing.
The duration of delivery of information increases when a large number of points that form relationships on the Internet discarded. While only 2% nodes with most links on the Internet are removed from the system, it takes two times to walk away from one element to other elements. However, among the dolphins, the situation is different.
Lusseau monitor the dolphins use the signs on the dorsal fins and observed that when the members of which acting as a communications center to leave the group, the dolphin community showed great resilience. Dolphin community cohesion is not affected by the absence of key members. This allows the public endurance dolphins continue to be in a healthy state even if a third of its members missing.
The researchers said that thanks to this system, the network can survive even in the face of disaster deaths. Moreover, he argues that these qualities can be applied to human-made networks such as the World Wide Web.
As we see, there are arrangements to protect the dolphins which is better than building a communications network that serves more powerful Internet and at major nodes uprooted. The existence of such a characteristic in the dolphins means that different conditions must be taken into account. For example, some stages, like calculating load will be placed on points of Internet connection in order to organize and assess at the beginning of how the whole network will be affected if the points were uprooted from the system, conducted by the engineers of this network and make the information running in the system efficiently as possible. The existence of the engineers who count and organize the flow of information on the Internet showed the existence of superior intelligence who set up a network of information on dolphins and many other living things similar in nature. There is no doubt that this superior intelligence is all-knowing God, Almighty.
Creation of information networks on these dolphins is a manifestation of His Name the Most Compassionate. God's love manifested in this information network as follows:
Mode of living creatures such as dolphins, which live in open waters and near the surface, behaves as a group is important. These lifestyle advantages in terms of alert against predators, or when hunting. Thanks to the continuous flow of information among the adult females in the group, other members are supplied with information on the position of prey and predator, which consequently aided in this group behave as coherent. If the flow of information on dolphins has become crippled by the loss of a dolphin caused by predators, then the flight of the other dolphins will not mean, and members are not likely to communicate will be forced to spread and eventually became the food of other predator-prey . However, the information network created in the dolphin by God is not broken at times like that, and make the members of the herd to survive by maintaining group cohesion.
God revealed the following in one of the Qur'anic verses:
"And truly thy Lord is He who is Mighty and Merciful." (Surat ash-Syu'araa, 26:9)

Treat stomach ulcers with plantain consumption
Any food that usually made alternative to treat an ulcer by society is the fruit of plantain. With a banana king is believed to help treat ulcer diseases.
Gastritis - often also called gastric ulcers - can strike any person with all ages. In severe circumstances, inflammation can cause gastric bleeding (hemorrhagic gastritis) so much blood that came out and gathered in the stomach. One moment, the patient may vomit containing blood.
There are a number of symptoms commonly felt by patients such as nausea, heartburn, stomach pain, irritation (bloating and difficulty) in the upper abdomen (solar plexus). Usually, drastically decreased appetite, pale face, body temperature rises, sweat out the cold, and frequent burping, especially in a state of hunger.
According to doctors Rino A Gani SpPD-KGH, various things can cause heartburn. "The reason a lot," said a specialist in internal medicine from Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital (RSCM), Jakarta. But usually, he said, ulcer disease occurs because of two things, namely the functional disorders of the stomach is not working well and there are anatomical structure of the disturbance. Functional impairment associated with the movement of the stomach associated with the nervous system in the stomach or the things that is psychological. Disturbance anatomical structures can be injured, erosion, or it could be a tumor.
In the literature mentioned, irregular eating patterns can cause symptoms such as sore stomach ulcers, and nausea. It happens because the stomach produces acid - called the gastric acid - to digest the food in a regular schedule. In fact, even during sleep anyway gastric acid production, although there was no food to be destroyed.
Gastric acid is needed to help with digestion. Without stomach acid, food enters the body, can not be digested properly, so that nutrients can not be optimally absorbed by the body. Gastric acid in the total balance is required by the body. But if excessive will lead to disease. Gastric acid production usually increases when the body needs it, when to eat. Conversely, when the body does not require, the production of stomach acid would decrease again.
Therefore, irregular eating schedules often make the stomach difficult to adapt. If this is ongoing, there will be excess acid and will irritate the gastric mucosal wall. Pains and nausea also occur.
In addition to irregular eating patterns, ulcer disease may also be caused by stress. This is possible because persyarafan system in the brain associated with ulcers, so that when a person experiences stress disorder then it could appear on the stomach. "In this case, there was an imbalance," he said. All you need to know that stress can cause hormonal changes in the body. Well then, those changes will stimulate the cells in the stomach which then produce excess acid. This excess acid makes the stomach pain, sore, and swollen. Over time, this can cause injury to the stomach wall.
Reduce sour and spicy food
To overcome this ulcer disease, Rino suggested to reduce the consumption of foods that can interfere with the stomach. What kind of foods that can irritate the stomach? Among these are the foods that are too sour and spicy. Rino also mentions some kind of food that could form the gases that cause flatulence, such as cassava and jackfruit.
In addition, you also have to recognize a few things to watch out hooked up with heartburn. For example, said Rino, new heartburn symptoms arise at the age of 40 years or heartburn that has been treated many times but did not go away. When this happens, it is advisable to immediately went to the doctor. "There may be wound in the stomach or may be a tumor," he said. Therefore, beware.
Can stomach ulcers healed? Sure you can, as long as patients want to change the lifestyle and diligent consultation with your doctor. According to Rino, functional dyspepsia can be cured if the patient apply the diet and regular sleep. In addition, should also avoid stress. Patients should also perform regular physical exercises according to ability. Enough physical exercise and regularly will make the body become fit and healthy. In addition, exercise can also prevent stress.

Train the Brain to Sharpen Memory
Train the Brain to Sharpen Memory
You can train the right brain to be able to remember so make your mind functions better.
Brain
Brain Function
In the process of remembering, the brain plays a big role. The brain can be divided into left brain and right brain. Left brain functions associated with logic, numbers, writing, intelligence, calculation, analysis, and for short-term memory (short term memory). While we diguakan right brain for creativity, imagination, music, colors, shapes, emotions, and for long-term memory (long term memory).
Memories will be more durable if the recall using the right brain. To be able to remember it well, need to train the brain to function optimally. Unfortunately, more people are using left brain in the process of remembering. The left brain is more developed that most people without a balanced development of the right brain. Because the left brain is short-term memory, then the information stored in the left brain will be more easily forgotten.
Therefore, if you want to save in the right brain, the information must be changed into a story or picture. Because the right brain does not recognize text or numbers. Exercise is necessary in order to develop the right brain. There are several techniques that can be done.
Total Story Technique (TST)
This technique is carried out by making a short story of the things that we had memorized. For example we are going shopping at the supermarket to buy rice, shampoo, milk, gum, floor cleaner, eggs, soy, cheese, tomato sauce, a tissue. Rather than trying to memorize it, you better make the story for these things to Dewi Sri (the goddess of legend that describes the paddy rice) was shampooing (shampoo) with a bath of milk. While outside, the Mbok who was chewing gum with a swab (permbersih floor) have prepared an egg flavor soy sauce sprinkled with cheese and tomatoes are soft as tissue.
The story actually visualized and imagined. Develop your imagination by adding color, sound, objects and motion supporting the story. For example, imagine a pink bathing place of milk baths Dewi Sri, imagine the Mbok old and wearing a gray kebaya mopping the page, listen to the voice cud chewing gum in his mouth, and imagine that you taste the eggs that taste like ketchup, imagine an egg shape studded cheese and tomato sauce, and imagine that you can hold the egg and feel the softness of such tissue.
Make it a real shadow in front of you. With the example of this story, we have trained the right brain that functions in creativity and imagination. Creativity is created when we make a short story and imagination played a role when we visualize the story.
Total Word Technique (TWT)
In this technique the information you want to remember was changed to the abbreviations or if the information that will be remembered is the foreign words, can be converted into words that sound almost the same. This technique is often also called the bridge a donkey. After that, the newly created stories to be accepted by the right brain.
For example, when she had to memorize the eighth planet from the nearest sun. The sequence is Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune. If you memorize it feels hard, be changed to the phrase "Not Vespa Riding Toys, Judi Friend Urip reckless."
Sentence using some of the letters before or the first syllable of the order of the planet who wants to remember. Riding to remember Mercury, Venus Vespa for, Not for the Earth's, Toys for Mars, Judi to Jupiter, to Saturn's Companions, Urip for Uranus, Neptune desperate for. By imagining the characters and what is being done, you can better remember it.
Total Number Technique (TNT)
This technique is used to remember the numbers. Because the right brain does not know the number or word, then the story needs to be made in order to recognize the right brain. For example, you must remember the number 212,007,217,080,205. You can turn it into a story like Wiro Sableng (212) and James Bond (007), two (2) are following the ceremonies of independence (1708) on the day of national education (0205).
However, not every combination of numbers is a familiar figure as above. For that, you can make the story his own by turning it into code that can be accepted by the right brain that is in code form or sound. You can change the numbers into code form or sound like the following:
| Figure | Form Code | Beep Code |
| 0 | Ball | Scorched |
| 1 | Pole | Shoe |
| 2 | Duck | Old |
| 3 | Ear | Butter |
| 4 | Sailboat | Ketupat |
| 5 | Potbelly | Pomegranate |
| 6 | Cigar | Planted |
| 7 | Hoe | Clothes |
| 8 | Glasses | Board |
| 9 | Racket | Road |
Code forms and codes can also be created his own sound based on your creativity. Now you have to remember passwords such as 284 670, can be converted into a sentence:
Given the Form Code
Duck (2) with glasses (8) sailboat ride (4) with his right hand holding a cigar (6) and left hand holding a hoe (7) playing ball (0).
Given the Beep Code
The old grandfather (2) buy a board (8) and diamond (4) of the people who are planting (6) clothes (7) char (0).
Recall method described above is only a few examples of techniques that can be used to remember, because there are still other methods. Considering these methods will make you also managed to keep creative in creating a short story, imagining and mengimajinasikannya.
Your imagination will be more refined as you add colors in the shadow of your story, adding motion, smell, or anything else that your imagination even more attractive. If you can, make a funny story or a story that made no sense. This will help more remembered.
You can also try to teach it to children. Thus, memorization can be fun for them. It will also be a good exercise for the right brain that can spur creativity and optimize your child's brain.
If you've tried to remember with these methods, the brain stores information on your right, the information will not be quickly forgotten and helps optimize brain and helps your memory. Good luck.
