Dear Rosa,

I am a guy, twenty-eight years old. I have a problem with a girl friend. She is twenty five years old. We
have been dating each other for years, since we were high school students. Now we have jobs. I feel
very sure that we love each other. Now it is time for me to get married. Unfortunately, her parents
never approve of our relationship ever since the very first time. My family, anyhow, does not really
mind. At first I thought my girl friend had the power to defend our love. But then she surrendered. She
loves me, and she loves her family, too. On the one hand she said, "I'll be happy if my family is happy." It
means she had to get approval from her parents.

For this I was shocked. My heart was broken. She ended our relationship just at the time when I was
ready to marry her. When I was with her, we were very happy. We had a lot in common and there were
no conflicts. The truth was, we separated only because of her parents. They want her to marry her
cousin, her aunt's son (this is one of the traditions in the Karonese).

For the time being I am very upset. When I miss her I call her. Then we can eat together, talk together
for hours. We act like elating because she loves me, too. The real problem is, she cannot refuse what her
parents want. So, should I forget my girl friend, the only one that I truly love? Or else, should I just wait,
and dream that one day she will be back to me?

Rio N., Padang

Dear Rio,
You call her your girl friend, but she has chosen her own way. For this reason I’d say that there is
nothing you can do except forget her and go on with your normal life. Hopefully you can find another
and live happily forever.

Rossa

Ibn Sina's first appointment was that of physician to the emir, Nuh II, who owed him his
recovery from a 29……………….. illness (997). Ibn Sina's chief reward for this service was
access to the royal library of the Samanids, well-known patrons of scholarship and scholars.
When the library was destroyed by fire not long after, the enemies of Ibn Sina accused him of
burning it, in order for ever to conceal the sources of his knowledge. Meanwhile, he assisted his
father in his financial labors, but still found time to write some of his earliest works.

When Ibn Sina was 22 years old, he lost his father. The Samanid dynasty came to its end in
December 1004. Ibn Sina seems to have declined the offers of Mahmud of Ghazni, and
proceeded westwards to Urgench in modern Turkmenistan, where the vizier, regarded as a friend
of scholars, gave him a small monthly stipend. The pay was small, however, so Ibn Sina
wandered from place to place 30………….. the districts of Nishapur and Merv to the borders of
Khorasan, seeking an opening for his talents. Qabus, the generous ruler of Tabaristan, himself a
poet and a scholar, with whom Ibn Sina had expected to find asylum, was on about that date
(1012) starved to death by his troops who had revolted. Ibn Sina himself was at this time stricken
by a severe illness.

Finally, at Gorgan, near the Caspian Sea, Ibn Sina met with a friend, who bought a dwelling
near his own house in which Ibnu Sina 31………………. on logic and astronomy. Several of Ibn
Sina's treatises were written for this patron; and the commencement of his Canon of Medicine
also dates from his stay in Hyrcania.

Text for number 35-36

A volcano is an opening in the Earth’s surface where molten rock can escape from
underneath. The Earth’s surface is made up of tectonic plates, which are spreading apart,
crunching into each other, or sliding beside one another. Volcanoes are typically found at the
fault lines between these plates. There can be active volcanoes, which are currently, or have
recently erupted. There are also dormant volcanoes, which haven’t erupted recently, and extinct
volcanoes, which will never erupt again.

There are 4 major types of volcanoes:

Cinder Cone Volcanoes

These are the simplest type of volcano. They occur when particles and blobs of lava are
ejected from a volcanic vent. The lava is blown violently into the air, and the pieces rain
down around the vent. Over time, this builds up a circular or oval-shaped cone, with a bowl-
shaped crater at the top. Cinder cone volcanoes rarely grow larger than about 1,000 feet
above their surroundings.

Composite Volcanoes

Composite volcanoes, or strato volcanoes make up some of the world’s most memorable
mountains: Mount Rainier, Mount Fuji, and Mount Cotopaxi, for example. These volcanoes
have a conduit system inside them that channels magma from deep within the Earth to the
surface. They can have clusters of vents, with lava breaking through walls, or issuing from
fissures on the sides of the mountain. With all this material coming out, they can grow
thousands of meters tall. As we’ve seen with the famous Mount Saint Helens, composite
volcanoes can explode violently.

Shield Volcanoes

These are large, broad volcanoes that look like shields from above – hence the name. The
lava that pours out of shield volcanoes is thin, so it can travel for great distances down the
shallow slopes of the volcano. These volcanoes build up slowly over time, with hundreds of
eruptions, creating many layers. They’re not likely to explode catastrophically. Perhaps the
best-known shield volcanoes are the ones that make up the Hawaiian Islands, especially
Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea.

Lava Domes
 Volcanic or lava domes are created by small masses of lava which are too viscous (thick) to
flow very far. Unlike shield volcanoes, with low-viscosity lava, the magma from volcanic
domes just piles up over and around the vent. The dome grows by expansion of the lava
within, and the mountain forms from material spilling off the sides of the growing dome.
Lava domes can explode violently, releasing a huge amount of hot rock and ash.

The Real Reason Why TV Is Bad for the Kids

"Books are good for children." "TV is bad for children." Everyone seems to know this. In the
same way that we know that we should be eating lots of fruits and vegetables and limiting
sweets, we all know that kids should spend a lot of time with books and relatively little time with
TV.

But why? Can't kids learn just as much from TV as they do from books? There is no doubt that
TV can be educational. But one of the unforeseen consequences of TV viewing is reducing how
much parents talk with their children. And diminished parent-child interaction can have negative
effects on children, especially when they are young.

In a recent study of toddlers and pre-schoolers, we observed mothers and their children while
they read books, watched a pro-social TV program, or played with toys. We found TV viewing
suppressed both the amount and quality of mother-child communication. That is, moms made
relatively few comments to their children while co-viewing. When they did speak, their
comments were often unrelated to what their child said, thereby creating an unproductive
exchange that could hinder children's opportunity for learning.

Moms who read books to their children, however, not only talked significantly more but also
used a very high-quality form of communication that included asking questions, labelling
objects, affirming their child, and responding to their child's statements or questions with
relevant information. It is important to note that the increased quantity and quality of
communication was not due to the fact that moms were reading the words on the pages. Instead,
this difference reflected the communication that occurred above and beyond the actual reading
that the mother did with the child.

Playing with toys also elicited a high amount of communication, including some high-quality
forms of interaction. Although not better than books, toy playing was significantly better than
shared TV viewing at encouraging communication.

With these results in mind, let's consider the child who spends a good chunk of the day watching
TV. From this perspective, the problem is not necessarily what content, either good or bad, the
child has experienced (of course content does make a difference too). Instead, the problem is
what this child is missing. Young children who watch lots of TV may be missing out on valuable
- even crucial - interactions with parents during a critical point in their development. Parent-child
interaction, even with children who can't yet speak, is vital to children's healthy development.

The American Academy of Pediatrics just released their updated TV guidelines for children ages
2 and under. In their statement, they discourage all TV viewing for children in this age group.
Part of the justification for their recommendation is that TV viewing reduces parent-child
communication.

Some parents may believe that they can't offer their children the kinds of educational experiences
that TV provides. But they are wrong. Children learn the best from real people, especially people
who are important to them. When parents talk with their children, they not only promote their
language development but also teach their children that they are valued and important. Reading
books and turning off the TV can facilitate these positive interactions.

My first time experience in Bali

At 55 I have just gone to Bali for the first time with my husband. We stayed in Seminyak and
had a wonderful time. We took Jetstar in economy over and were in 2nd last row and even then
by time off plane purchasing VOA and Immigration took about 1 hour - wasn't too bad.
Departing last night, Jetstar was late by one hour but we had paid to go Business class so it was
not that bad. We sat in Premier Lounge - not a great selection of food or wine (wine is my thing)
but it was enjoyable anyway. Of course, new airport is underway and things may be different
once that is up and running. We didn't get sick or robbed or bitten. Yes, footpaths are broken and
or missing and some smells but that didn't 16deter us. People were friendly and so polite. The
weather was just fantastic. When asked to take what looked like post cards we politely said "no
thank you " and that was the last of it. Bintang beer mostly $2.50 very cheap and was the food
and we ate in good restaurants - La Lucciola, Breeze, Sardine, Sarong and Metis. As we had
breakfast supplied at The Samaya we didn't need lunch and we were given fruit salad by the pool
and afternoon tea so only dinner was required. We enjoyed Sarong in particular. We used hand
sanitizer and luckily for us we didn't get the dreaded dire - rear. A driver took us to Ubud and
Jimbaran Bay and through Kuta. Mostly this was a relaxing one week there. Manicures,
pedicures, hair, massage were so cheap - roughly $8 - we had these done at Body Works in
Seminyak. I also had Wendy the dressmaker come to our hotel and made me skirts which I was
very happy with. This morning in Sydney airport, it took us just 30 minutes to be off the plane
and into a taxi. Jetstar made up time flying home - only 5 hours and 10 minutes. It was all a
breeze. Bali had never been on my to do list, but I will be going back that is for sure.
