Assalamualaikum, wr.wb.



Salam Sejahtera dan Salam Beta !



Teman-teman, kami dari Salam Beta (Sahabat Alam Belajar Kita), yaitu sebuah komunitas yang terbentuk atas kesamaan visi ketika menjadi relawan bencana Merapi, berinisiatif untuk membangun sebuah Rumah Baca di Dusun Kajor RT 01 Desa Jrakah, Kecamatan Selo, Kabupaten Boyolali, Jawa Tengah.



Kajor adalah salah satu dusun yang terletak di lereng Gunung Merapi dan Merbabu. Dusun ini berjarak empat kilometer dari puncak Merapi. Total penghuninya mencapai 187 jiwa. Pendidikan masyarakat di desa ini mayoritas hanya dapat menikmati bangku SMP. Hasil sawah yang menjadi ladang pencaharian sebagian besar masyarakat Kajor gagal panen. Hingga sekarang, kegiatan belajar mengajar di sekolah belum efektif. Kendala yang ada adalah belum terkumpulnya tenaga pegajar. Sebagian dari Guru masih berada di tempat pengungsian namun dalam kondisi sekarang sulit dilacak keberadaannya. Hal semacam ini kemungkinan besar tidak hanya terjadi di Kajor. Oleh karena itu, akan dilakukan pengadaan beberapa Rumah Baca di daerah sekitar lereng Merapi.



Untuk membangun Rumah Baca ini tentulah tidak mudah, kami masih memiliki kendala dalam pemenuhan prasarana di sana, seperti rak, karpet, meja, dll. Oleh karena itu, kami mengundang teman-teman semua untuk berpartisipasi dalam pembangunan rumah baca ini. Bantuan teman-teman dapat berupa:



1. Menjadi relawan tenaga pengajar.



2. Sumbangan berupa buku.



3. Sumbangan berupa uang untuk pemenuhan prasarana yang bisa dikirim ke rekening:



* BCA 033-0833-041 a.n Durrotul Yatiimah

* BNI 0095834457 a.n Muhammad Yogie

* Bank Syariah Mandiri 1637033550 a.n Yasinta Dewi





Bagi teman-teman yang ingin mengetahui program lebih lengkap dari rumah baca ini bisa mendownload proposal kami di:

Build A Wind Generator: Basic Tips To Consider

Aside from harnessing energy from the sun, households today are utilizing energy sources from wind to. To do so, they build wind generators as an alternative to the regular power source. There are plenty of reasons behind building wind generators.

Whether it's due to environmental concern or for financial reasons, one can simply agree that it is a good idea. Wind generators harness clean energy, and gives you about eighty percent for your power consumption. Depending on location, some households are able to cover their entire electrical needs from this natural power source.

Wind Generators As Alternatives To Solar Power

In some instances where the solar power cannot produce the required power input for household consumption. This is the time when they became very useful because it generates power using the wind. It can generate power input whenever the sunlight becomes unavailable. Sometimes they are also used in conjunction with each other in order to generate more power.

To make the wind turbine or generator, there are several materials needed in order to put the system in operation. Having all these materials assembled in accordance with the instruction will ensure an alternative source of energy to power simple household needs.

On the same manner to build a wind generator, the major components would include the blades, DC Motor, Battery and Inverter. Understanding how these parts are interrelated with each other is crucial to assemble it correctly.

Wind Generator Blades:

In generating the electrical energy, the blades of the wind generator move like a propeller of an airplane. In the past wind energy has been used in farms to power mechanical devices that were used in simple task of milling grain. It was also utilized in pumping water. The wind generation system is effective when it is in the proper location. The blades must be of equal shapes and at least three in number. This will produce an equal rotation, which will make the system work accordingly.

DC Motor:

The wind makes the windmill turn that produce rotation that affects the shaft. When this happens, an electric current is created by the rotation of the magnetic field. This will create a direct current (DC) electricity, which will eventually be converted to alternating current (AC) to be utilized for household electric consumption.

The Battery:

The energy produce by a solar or wind source is useless if it will not be stored. It is for these purposes that the battery is useful. Series of batteries can be utilized to store power for household use.

The Inverter:

When the energy is generated and stored in the battery, it is ready for use in household consumption. However, the needed current for household appliance and lights is an alternating current. The inverter is used to convert the direct current stored in the battery to an alternating current (AC).

If you live in a windy area, wind energy can simply work by itself. However, you can use this along with a solar power panel so that you can generate more energy. Solar panels and wind energy systems are commercially sold, but buying them isn't always the best idea. The idea to build a wind generator is timely and essential, and is also viable as it can be done with the right guide and materials. In helping to conserve the natural resources, it is necessary to utilize all the potential renewable energy sources.

I built my own solar panels and a wind generator and saved well over $30,000. I get a cheque from the power company because I produce more energy than I use. If you'd like to learn how you can do the same check out Build A Wind Generator.

After

After being single for a very long time, finally you got a chance to date someone special huh? I know that you’re probably feeling a little bit nervous thinking about your date especially about what are you going to talk about? Going blind in the mind actually the biggest problem that most of us encounter during our date, Why is this a problem? Well, because this can leads both of you to a very an awkward silence, you sure don’t want that to happen right?

The Biggest Benefit For Keeping

By now, you've probably heard plenty of information about battery desulfation and reconditioning, and now you may actually be thinking of giving it a try. And what better way to try reconditioning than by doing it with your very own, self-made desulfator, right? The primary benefit of making your own desulfator is that you can save a significant amount of money than if you bought one from an electronics or automotive shop.

Can I Really Build A Battery Desulfator?

The good thing is that it is easy enough for anyone to undertake a battery desulfator DIY project. Most of the parts and materials you need can be found in the junk box, which you've probably stored away somewhere in your basement or garage. An empty, standard-sized can, cardboard, perforated board, pots, resistors, switches, pop-rivets, grommets, output wires, adhesive copper foil, LED, and FET are easy enough to find in your junk box, right? Even if you don't have these materials on hand, they are readily available at very affordable prices at your local hardware.

Starting The DIY Project
Once you have all the necessary parts and materials prepared, the exciting part of a battery desulfator DIY project can officially begin. The first step is to build the box for your desulfator. This is done by cutting out a piece of the perf-board that will fit snugly into the inner bottom part of the empty can. Arrange the circuit parts on the perf-board according to your desired position. At this point, it would help if you have a schematic diagram to serve as your guide in building the circuit, especially if this is your first time to build a desulfator.

Insulate Properly
Since you are using a metal can as the desulfator's box, proper insulation is necessary. Cover the lid and sides of the can with thin cardboard. Now, you are ready to start drilling the necessary holes and then solder the wires into place. Drill one hole on the left side of the can for the output wires and then drill three vent holes on the other side. You may also drill a hole on top of the lid so that you can observe the LED while the desulfator is in use. As soon as all the holes have been drilled, you may position the wires and solder them in place as shown in your schematic diagram. Now, decide where exactly on the perf-board you would like to place the FET and then glue it into place.

Voila! Your battery desulfator DIY project is complete. Now you can try your hand at battery reconditioning. If you don't have an old battery that you can practice on, you may go looking for abandoned "dead" batteries and use them for your purposes. If your reconditioning practice is successful, then you could sell the reconditioned battery to someone at a discounted price. Who knows, you just might end up with your very own battery reconditioning business. You'll never realize how limitless the possibilities are unless you give it a try.

Reconditioning batteries can save you thousands of dollars. I actually recondition batteries as a side business (and it's quite profitable).

Training

Training logs are great, especially modern training logs that let you graph workouts and see trends and get the big picture. The single largest benefit for keeping a training log, though, isn't dependent upon fancy graphs or a searchable database of workouts. The biggest advantage is just having access to historical data.

You can take advantage of this feature even if you just use pen and a calendar or notebook for tracking your workouts.

I wound up hurting my neck a couple of Winters ago after a good sized snowstorm that left behind about 15 inches of wet, heavy snow. I spent about 3½ hours shoveling and a few hours later I got out for a quick hour on foot after the plows had pushed the snowbanks back. All in all, it seemed as though it was going to be a great day.

That evening though, as I lay in bed, I turned my head to look towards the door and managed to pull a muscle in my neck.

It wasn't as bad as my birthday back in 2006, when I sat up and heard a loud crack only to find myself on my back staring at the ceiling and having a few moments to think, "This can't be good..." before the pain set in. That took me out for months; this time it was only a few days.

This was the third time that this had happened to me, the second time being in the Summer of 2008. I remember that first time pretty vividly, as I was pretty naive and thought that I'd broken my neck. (Erin had heard the crack my neck made from the next room.) I couldn't quite remember when the second time was, but my training log came the rescue.

Because I record all of my workouts and the conditions I run in, and I track any sort of injury or excess fatigue, I can usually go back over my log and see exactly what it was that led to my getting hurt. This lets me see the similarities and avoid repeating any stupid things that I might be doing so that I don't get hurt again.

For example, when I have to spend any significant time shoveling (or any shoulder-intensive exercise) on a day when it is cold or wet out, I've decided that a few hours of shoveling could substitute as my workout for the day as that tends to be when I have problems that night or the next morning.

Another nice thing about being able to look at the training log is to see exactly how long I was out and to make a reasonable guess about how long I need to take it easy for any new injuries I'm researching.

Looking at graphs of your training volume and being able to search for specific workouts are great.

The single largest benefit of keeping a training log, though, is to track how your training affects you and to look at your historical data so that you can learn from your mistakes. You can also learn from your successes; repeat what works and stop doing the things that hurt you.

The log won't lie, and it's memory will be much better than yours.
