Lyme Disease

I want to tell you about Lyme Disease.

Lyme disease is a disease caused by bacteria from infected tick bites that can cause fever, headaches, rashes, and worse.

It can be found in the North America since infected ticks are found in the northeastern, north central, and Pacific coastal regions of North America. They also inhabit the temperate, forested regions of Europe and Asia.

You can avoid it the ticks. If you can’t avoid spots where ticks live, use repellents, which can reduce the risk. Check your skin and hair for ticks each day.

PageRank Checker

I don't understand how Google can manage to give pagerank. What are the criterias?

This blog was a PR3 blog and I just found out that it has been PR2. My full english blog was a PR2 blog and now PR3 blog.

The curious parts are I am more dedicated to this blog than the other, so posts have been more than the other and blogwalking is more on this blog.

So what things make this blog PR decreased?

Fatwa Haram Merokok dari MUI

MUI kembali mengeluarkan sebuah fatwa haram. Setelah mengeluarkan fatwa haram untuk golput alias tidak memilih dalam pemilu, MUI mengeluarkan fatwa bahwa merokok adalah haram.

Saya pun berbicara dengan bapak perawat ICU tadi pagi :

Saya : Pak, merokok haram tuh pak..

Bpk Perawat : Ah... ada2 aja... ngeluarin fatwa koq kayak gitu..



Saya pun berkesimpulan bapak ini adalah perokok..

Memang sih yang menentukan dosa atau ga dosa bukan MUI tapi Dia yang Maha Kuasa..

Walaupun begitu, karena saya tidak merokok, saya menyambut baik fatwa ini dan pesimis banyak orang yang mengikutinya.

1 hal yang pasti.. Asap rokok itu annoying..

First Day in ICU, Someone Dies..

Yup, yesterday was my first day in ICU. There are three patients. The patients were suffered from severe head injury (2 patients) and myocard infarct (1 patient).

One of the patients with severe head injury was in worst condition than the other. The CT scan showed epidural and subdural haematome with intracranial bleeding.

The morning I came, he was apnoe. In the afternoon, the surgeon decided that the patient was in no hope. After the infussion was changed to normal ringer lactate and the ventillator stopped, a few hours later the patient died.

It's Gonna Be a Boring Day

Today is the chinese new year. The most boring part is that I have holiday shift. The shift will begin in 8.00 AM until tomorrow.

I will stay in the Intensive Care Unit and waiting for the call telling there will be emergency operation. After that I will go down to the emergency operating room.

I have my shift alone, so that will be boring if there is no operation and I have to wait in the I.C.U. until tomorrow.


Hoaaeeemmm... (-.-)

Fitness Myth : Do Muscle will Become Fat?

I have heard some statement from my friends who don't want to do some work out of fitness related things. They said that they were afraid if their build up muscle will become fat if they don't do the exercise again in some time. I have thought about that too if you are wonder.

This is the great thing, the statement is false! Yes, if someone who usually going to gym and has great muscles will get much fat if he or she stop work up. The reason is not because the muscle is becoming fat.

The answer is :

Muscle and fat are two completely different tissues that have different functions, so it's physiologically impossible to turn one into the other. If you stop exercising, your muscles atrophy, so you lose the tone you worked so hard to create. And if you eat more calories than you burn, you'll gain fat.
