tentang tanggal 1 Juni 2009

tanggal 1 Juni'09

Pada tanggal 1 Juni 2009 saya dan anak2 SMP Strada MGM dari naq kls 7&8 akan mengikuti ujian yang akan memperhitungkan kami semua naik kelas atau tidak..

Kami semua sangat tegang sekali menghadapi ujian ini.. Sehingga kami berdoa kepada Tuhan agar kami bisa mengerjakan ujian tersebut benar.. Dan saya akan berusaha dengan cara "belajar" dengan sungguh2 agar saya bisa mengerjakan'a dengan baik!!

Besok saya dan keluarga mau ke gereja untuk mengikuti kebaktian. Di sana saya akan berdoa kepada Tuhan agar Tuhan mau membantu saya agar saya tidak melakukan kesalahan waktu saya mengerjakan soal2 ujian hari senin tanggal 1 Juni 2009 tersebut dan saya minta agar Tuhan bantu saya agar mulai hari ini saya akan belajar dengan rajin. Saya mohon ya Tuhan! amien!

Tapi saya hari ini kesel sekali!! Karena saya tidak sekelas dengan jambuL!! Tetapi malah tmn saya yg sekelas ma dya sekaligus sebangku ma jambuL! Hati saya perihh sekali..:"(


Tetapi saya tidak mau gara2 itu saya tidak dapat mengerjakan ujian yang tanggal 1 Juni 2009 itu menjadi gagal/sia2 begitu saja! Maka saya akan "BERUSAHA"!!!
CHAYOO LISSA..!!:))

A Dream Reality ~ by Waymon Burns

I was in Panajachel 2 weeks ago with my wife and her Guatemalan family. It's almost like a dream reality there. I'd first went there around 20 years ago and had always wanted to return.
I have plans to go again, possibly next year. I do plan to retire in Guatemala; possibly in San Lucas, near Antigua.
I like the people there, in spite of getting them to keep a promise, especially related to time or an appointment. - Waymon Burns Texas

(posted as a comment on "Lake Atitlan’s Monster" on May 18, 2009 1:49 PM)

My response:

Dear Waymon, thanks for your comment! Especially what you wrote "I like the people there, in spite of getting them to keep a promise, especially related to time or an appointment."

LOL... ain't it the truth? But they really are so nice, I love living there. Glad you enjoyed it. Let us know if you come back. We're going to retire there too, even as I am back and forth all the time right now. I'm starting to build a house there this year in Panajachel, Lake Atitlan.

You can write to me at ctodd1000@gmail.com. Let's keep in touch!

Guatemalan Trade Fair in USA 2006

Guatemalan Trade Fair in California: Big International Business
US Big Business and Guatemalan Small Business Hook-up
By Martin Barillas

Guatemalan artisans will exhibit their wares at the Hollywood Park Casino in Los Angeles CA for the second showing of their handicrafts. The Mayan vendors, many of whom are artisans themselves, will offer their work for sale from August 24th through the 27th. Guatemalans who claim descent from the Mayans and who speak any one of some 12 different Amerindian languages live mostly in the highlands of the small Central American republic. They are known the world over for their colorful hand-woven fabrics which forms the basis for their native dress. The women of the highlands are renowned for their hand-woven and hand embroidered blouses, called huipiles. Besides clothing, the Guatemalan craftsmen will offer the public in California a chance to buy wood carvings, dolls, and other handicrafts.

This is the second such exhibition in California. In the 60s and 70s as North American and European travelers and backpackers visited Guatemala, they brought back clothing and other crafts for sale. Since the onset of the wave of immigrants from Central America to the US, more and more Guatemalans are themselves coming to the US to sell their wares. Guatemalan officials hope for an attendance in excess of 10,000 for the four day exhibit.
Sales of Guatemalan handicrafts has slumped, somewhat, due to East Asian competition but also because of criminal violence in Guatemala. According to Guatemalan daily Prensa LIbre, exports of handicrafts from January 1st to August 10th of this year stood at US$1.820 million. In comparison, Guatemala exported US$1.987 million in 2005. A number of craftsmen’s guilds, associations, and cooperatives that will be represented at the fair are indigenous community-based.

The fair will afford an opportunity for Guatemalans to sell to Americans, but also for Americans to sell to Guatemalans. Real estate brokers and developers are due to be on hand at the fair to entice Guatemalans living in the US to buy homes and real estate. In addition, companies that deal in wire transfers of money will be there to offer their services to Guatemalans who send money home. Companies such as MoneyGram, Western Union, and the US Postal Service are competing for a wire transfer market that exceeds $8 billion per annum, the approximate amount transferred from the US to Mexico, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, and Guatemala.

The Hollywood Park Casino is located at 3883 W. Century Blvd. Inglewood CA 90303. Tel: 310-330-2800.

Mexican Sunflowers Provide Support for Beans

Mexican Sunflower kolya.typepad.com



www.floridata.com/ref/T/tithon_r.cfm

Description
Mexican sunflower is a warm season annual with a stout, gangly habit, growing to 5-6 ft (1.5-1.8 m) tall and 3-4 ft (0.9-1.2 m) wide. The leaves are coarse, 3-lobed, 4-10 in (12.7-25 cm) long and 2-4 in (5-10 cm) wide. The leaves and stems are covered with a soft downy fuzz. The numerous flower heads are brilliant red-orange, like daisies or zinnias, and about 3 in (7.6 cm) across. The beautiful cultivar, 'Torch', was named an All America Selection and is the probably the most popular. Dwarf cultivars are also available including 'Goldfinger' and 'Fiesta Del Sol' that grow to about 3 ft (0.9 m) in height and perfect for smaller gardens.

Location
There are about 10 species of Tithonia native to Mexico and Central America.

Culture
Light: Likes full sun, but can tolerate filtered sun or partial shade.
Moisture: Needs well-drained soil. Mexican sunflower is heat and drought resistant but water when dry for a good look.
Hardiness: USDA Zones 5 to 10 (4 if started indoors). Killed by frost, but will reseed itself next spring.
Propagation: Seeds.

Usage
Mexican sunflower is beautiful in cut flower arrangements, but the flower heads are borne on fragile hollow peduncles (flower stems) that must be cut carefully with a sharp knife lest they bend and collapse. Plant Mexican sunflower behind beds or borders where their coarse texture, rangy habit and vivid flowers will stand above less boisterous plantings. Unless you're growing one of the compact varieties, they will need plenty of room.

Features
Few plants as large and spectacular as Mexican sunflower can complete two generations in a single summer. In the southern U.S., Mexican sunflower seeds planted in March or April will produce plants that flower and go to seed in June. Those seeds will fall to the ground, germinate, and produce a second generation of flowers that will mature before the first frost in October!

Yellow Torch Mexican sunflowers
The Mexican sunflower cultivar 'Yellow Torch' is as beautiful and appealing to butterflies as it's companion 'Red Torch'. Click to download a large version of this image.
Mexican sunflower is one of the best flowers you can grow for attracting butterflies. In late summer, a stand of tithonia may attract a half dozen or more butterfly and skipper species with one or more individuals on every single blossom!

The composite family is so named because their members have flower heads that consist of many flowers, usually of two different types. Ray flowers look superficially like petals around the margin, and disk flowers are crowded together in the center of the composite flower head. Both kinds of flowers may have pollen-producing stamens and seed-producing ovaries. Use a hand lens to see these parts for yourself.

Radio Scripts


Package 30, Script 7
October 1993
Mexican Sunflowers Provide Support for Beans

Content: Sunflowers can provide support for bean plants. They also protect the soil and add nutrients and organic matter as they decompose.

Julio Cesar is a farmer in the Department of San Marcos, Guatemala. One of his main crops is beans. Julio uses a local plant, the Mexican sunflower (Tithonia diversifolia), to protect the beans and help them grow.

Here is how he does it.

First he plants a row of Mexican sunflowers. One or two days later he plants beans in the same row. The idea is that the beans will eventually grow up the sunflower stems and use them as support. After the sunflowers have grown for some time, little shoots begin to grow out of the stems. Julio cuts off these shoots. Otherwise the shoots grow into branches which prevent the beans from growing straight up. He cuts the shoots off the sunflower stems about every 15 days until the bean plants are well established and wrapped around the tall, strong, stems of the sunflowers.

After that Julio lets the sunflower shoots grow - this way the plant produces more branches and leaves which will be a good mulch on the ground next year. When the shoots grow bigger and form branches they provide shade which keeps Julio cool at harvest time.

This practice has lots of advantages. The sunflower is a cover crop when the beans are growing, keeping the soil protected. And Julio has stopped buying fertilizers for his beans. At the end of the season the sunflowers add nutrients and organic matter to the soil as they decompose. So the sunflowers act first as a mulch on the soil and then decompose adding organic matter and nutrients to the soil. Also when the flowers have died they can be dried and used as fuel.

::Computers For Guatemala::

Having served in the Peace Corps in Guatemala from 1967 to 1970, I stayed in touch with friends, helping some of their children through school. On one trip to Guatemala I was asked by one student to meet with Catholic nuns who needed computers for their school. I put up signs in Darien CT and asked friends in New York City, and soon had 20 computers, which were sent to the school. Word spread in Guatemala and here at home, so to date we have sent over 300 computer systems to schools, orphanages, libraries and individuals, some in partnership with the Peace Corps, Catholic Charities, Child Aid, and a non-sectarian Quaker scholarship program.

We also have an eight acre recreation park “Nueva Vista” with playground equipment. We are growing fair trade coffee in the park and will use the profits to support the computer projects. Almost half of the park has been set aside for a suitable project such as a school or orphanage.

Our logo is the Mayan symbol for both the Quetzal (national bird of Guatenala) and the Creator. By recycling a seemingly useless computer we give a Mayan child the means to create new things and hence the power to create a new life.

::Feedback::

"I can imagine no better way to serve the young and disenfranchised of Guatemala than to provide, as you have been doing for decades, funds for education, and now educationally-formatted computers. For anyone of whatever background or nationality to become a realized individual, having the tools, developing a personal mission, and defying the odds are basic requirements."
