Professor Perancis Maki "KALIAN SEMUA GOBLOK" Kepada Anggota DPR RI
Studi banding anggota DPR ke luar negeri terus menuai protes. Kunjungan itu bak liburan masa reses yang menghabiskan uang rakyat, sementara hasilnya tidak jelas.
Komisi X yang membawahi olahraga, dan pariwisata, misalnya kedapatan berfoto-foto dan membeli tiket pertandingan Real Madrid di ke Stadion Santiago Bernabeu, Spanyol.
Lalu studi banding Komisi VIII ke Australia. Mereka hendak melakukan studi banding ke parlemen Australia, padahal parlemen di Negeri Kanguru itu sedang reses. Konyolnya lagi anggota DPR sempat membohongi mahasiswa Indonesia di sana soal email resmi Komisi VIII beralamat di komisi8@yahoo.com.
"Itu semakin memperjelas studi banding itu tidak ada gunanya. Itu hanya modus untuk jalan-jalan dan mendapatkan uang saku," ujar Kordinator Forum Masyarakat Peduli Parlemen Indonesia (Formappi) Sebastian Salang.
Banyak cerita minor tentang kelakuan wakil rakyat saat berkunjung ke luar ngeri. Pada 28 Juli 2005, Perhimpunan Pelajar Indonesia (PPI) Belanda memergoki anggota DPR dari Badan Legislatif jalan- jalan dan belanja barang mewah. Wakil rakyat pun terpotret sedang menenteng barang belanjaan merek Bally atau Gucci.
"Mereka tidak ada agenda di Belanda dan saat itu kami memang ingin menemui mereka untuk audiensi. Mereka 2 malam di Amsterdam," ujar mantan Ketua PPI Amsterdam 2004- 2005 Berly Martawardaya kepada detikcom.
Anggota DPR tidak mempunyai agenda resmi ke Amsterdam karena pada saat itu Parlemen Belanda yang berkedudukan di Den Haag juga sedang masa reses.
Hal senada juga dibeberkan mantan Ketua PPI Perancis Mahmud Syaltout. Sebelum mendatangi Amsterdam, anggota DPR itu sebenarnya hendak studi banding ke Perancis. Tidak jelas dalam urusan apa kunjungan itu. Namun, kedatangan anggota DPR itu telah jauh-jauh hari ditolak oleh PPI Perancis.
Ketua PPI saat itu (alm) Rudianto Ekawan, memerintahkan semua mahasiswa untuk datang ke KBRI Perancis dan melakukan aksi walk out serta membacakan surat protes atas kedatangan anggota DPR. Aksi ini diharapkan menjadi tamparan keras bagi wakil rakyat yang datang tanpa persiapan ke Perancis.
Anggota DPR tidak bisa memberikan penjelasan logis soal kedatangan mereka. Salah seorang juru bicara DPR menyatakan tujuan mereka untuk bertemu dengan mahasiswa-mahasiswa Indonesia yang pintar. Mereka juga memuji mahasiswa di luar negeri sebagai pemimpin bangsa dan juga merupakan konstituen mereka.
"Sebelum pidato selesai, teman saya, Rudianto AB interupsi dan membacakan surat protes dari PPI Prancis. Kemudian kita walk out. KBRI pun geger dan semua marah sama kita," cerita Mahmud.
Gara-gara kejadian itu semua jadwal kunjungan DPR di Belanda dan Belgia ikut dibatalkan. Akhirnya PPI Belanda memergoki para wakil rakyat itu asyik berbelanja.
Mahmud kembali menjadi guide untuk anggota DPR yang melakukan studi banding mengenai masalah anggaran ke Perancis pada 2006. Sebenarnya, kedatangan anggota DPR bukan ke Perancis, tetapi hendak menonton pertandingan final Piala Dunia di Jerman antara Italia melawan Perancis. Karena datang lebih awal, mereka menyempatkan diri melancong ke negeri mode tersebut.
Rombongan ternyata tidak hanya terdiri dari anggota DPR, tapi juga banyak terdapat anggota DPRD dari DKI Jakarta. Selama berada di Perancis, para wakil rakyat itu menghamburkan uang dengan berbelanja merek mahal semisal Louis Vitton, Pierre Cardin, dan membeli jam tangan mahal yang harganya dapat membiayai uang kuliah seorang mahasiswa selama setahun.
KBRI Perancis yang dipimpin oleh (alm) Arizal Effendi juga menolak memfasilitasi anggota DPR. Para anggota dewan dianggap sebagai rombongan liar.
Saat itu, salah seorang anggota DPR sempat meminta untuk dicarikan gadis panggilan di Perancis. Mahmud menjelaskan, di Perancis tidak ada pusat lokalisasi seperti Red Light di Belanda.Si anggota DPR kemudian meminta ditunjukkan pusat tarian striptis di Perancis. Mahmud pun menyarankan agar mereka pergi sendiri ke Moulin Rouge.
Saat akan kembali ke Jerman, ketua rombongan DPR itu nyeletuk ada yang kurang saat di Perancis. "Apa yang kurang, belum beli Hermes ya atau barang apalagi yang tidak ada?" kata salah seorang anggota rombongan menanggapi celetukan ketuanya. "Bukan, kita belum sempat foto-foto di Menara Eiffel," jawab si ketua santai.
Pada 2007, anggota DPR mendapat makian Guru Besar Ilmu Tata Negara Universitas Sorbon Perancis Prof Edmond Jouve. Saat itu, beberapa anggota DPR ke Perancis untuk melakukan studi banding tentang Kementerian Negara dan Dewan Penasihat.
Mahmud yang mahasiswa Ilmu Tata Negara pun meminta Jouve untuk menjelaskan sistem tata negara di Perancis dan Indonesia. Dalam pertemuan di KBRI Perancis itu, Jouve menjelaskan sistem tata negara Perancis dan Indonesia sangat berbeda.
Mendengar paparan itu, seorang anggota dewan nyeletuk mereka salah mendatangi Perancis untuk studi banding. Anggota dewan lainnya pun terbahak-bahak mendengar celetukan itu.
Melihat hadirin tertawa, Jouve bertanya. Penerjemah menjelaskan celetukan sang anggota dewan. Mendapat penjelasan itu Jouve marah. "Kalian semua goblok!" maki Jouve dalam bahasa Perancis.
Sang profesor lantas mengingatkan, Indonesia bukanlah negara kaya dan masih berada di dalam kategori negara berkembang, kenapa malah menghamburkan uang jika tidak ada hasilnya.

Listeria monocytogenes
Food-Info.net : Listeria monocytogenes
Listeria monocytogenes Karakteristik umum Bakteri ini merupakan bakteri Gram-positif, dan motil/bergerak dengan menggunakan flagella. Beberapa penelitian menunjukkan bahwa 1-10% manusia mungkin memiliki L. monocytogenes di dalam ususnya. Bakteri ini telah ditemukan pada setidaknya 37 spesies mamalia, baik hewan piaraan maupun hewan liar, serta pada setidaknya 17 spesies burung, dan mungkin pada beberapa spesies ikan dan kerang. Bakteri ini dapat diisolasi dari tanah, silage (pakan ternak yang dibuat dari daun-daunan hijau yang diawetkan dengan fermentasi), dan sumber-sumber alami lainnya. Sebagai bakteri yang tidak membentuk spora, L. monocytogenes sangat kuat dan tahan terhadap efek mematikan dari pembekuan, pengeringan, dan pemanasan. Sebagian besar L. monocytogenes bersifat patogen pada tingkat tertentu. Gejala-gejala penyakit Listeriosis merupakan nama penyakit yang disebabkan oleh L. monocytogenes . Secara klinis, suatu penyakit disebut listeriosis apabila L. monocytogenes diisolasi dari darah, cairan cerebrospinal (cairan otak dan sumsum tulang belakang), atau dari tempat lain yang seharusnya steril (misalnya plasenta, janin). Gejala listeriosis termasuk septicemia (infeksi pada aliran darah), meningitis (radang selaput otak) atau meningoencephalitis (radang pada otak dan selaputnya), encephalitis (radang otak), dan infeksi pada kandungan atau pada leher rahim pada wanita hamil, yang dapat berakibat keguguran spontan (trimester kedua/ketiga) atau bayi lahir dalam keadaan meninggal. Kondisi di atas biasanya diawali dengan gejala-gejala seperti influenza, antara lain demam berkepanjangan. Dilaporkan bahwa gejala-gejala pada saluran pencernaan seperti mual, muntah, dan diare dapat merupakan bentuk awal dari listeriosis yang lebih parah, namun mungkin juga hanya gejala itu yang terjadi. Secara epidemiologi, gejala pada saluran pencernaan berkaitan dengan penggunaan antasida atau cimetidine (antasida dan cimetidine merupakan obat-obatan yang berfungsi menetralkan atau mengurangi produksi asam lambung). Waktu mulai timbulnya gejala listeriosis yang lebih parah tidak diketahui, tetapi mungkin berkisar dari beberapa hari sampai tiga minggu. Awal munculnya gejala pada saluran pencernaan tidak diketahui, tetapi mungkin lebih dari 12 hari. Dosis infektif L. monocytogenes tidak diketahui, tetapi diyakini bervariasi menurut strain dan kerentanan korban. Dari kasus yang disebabkan oleh susu mentah atau susu yang proses pasteurisasinya kurang benar, diduga kurang dari 1000 organisme dapat menyebabkan penyakit pada orang-orang yang rentan. L. monocytogenes dapat menyerang epithelium (permukaan dinding) saluran pencernaan. Sekali bakteri ini memasuki sel darah putih (tipe monocyte , macrophage , atau polymorphonuclear ) dalam tubuh korbannya, bakteri ini masuk ke aliran darah (septicemia) dan dapat berkembang biak. Keberadaannya di dalam sel fagosit memungkinkannya memasuki otak, dan pada wanita hamil, mungkin masuk ke janin melalui plasenta. Sifat patogenik L. monocytogenes berpusat pada kemampuannya untuk bertahan dan berkembang biak di dalam sel fagosit korbannya. Diagnosis Listeriosis hanya dapat didiagnosis secara pasti dengan cara membiakkan organisme ini dari darah, cairan cerebrospinal (cairan otak dan sumsum tulang belakang), atau kotoran (walaupun untuk kotoran, sulit dilakukan dan terbatas kegunaannya) Makanan terkait L. monocytogenes dikaitkan dengan makanan seperti susu mentah, susu yang proses pasteurisasinya kurang benar, keju (terutama jenis keju yang dimatangkan secara lunak), es krim, sayuran mentah, sosis dari daging mentah yang difermentasi, daging unggas mentah dan yang sudah dimasak, semua jenis daging mentah, dan ikan mentah atau ikan asap. Kemampuannya untuk tumbuh pada temperatur rendah hingga 3°C memungkinkan bakteri ini berkembang biak dalam makanan yang disimpan di lemari pendingin. Pencegahan Pencegahan secara total mungkin tidak dapat dilakukan, namun makanan yang dimasak, dipanaskan dan disimpan dengan benar umumnya aman dikonsumsi karena bakteri ini terbunuh pada temperatur 75°C. Resiko paling besar adalah kontaminasi silang, yakni apabila makanan yang sudah dimasak bersentuhan dengan bahan mentah atau peralatan (misalnya alas pemotong) yang terkontaminasi. Populasi rentan Populasi yang rentan pada listeriosis yaitu: wanita hamil/janin – infeksi perinatal (sesaat sebelum dan sesudah kelahiran) dan neonatal (segera setelah kelahiran); orang yang system kekebalannya lemah karena perawatan dengan corticosteroid (salah satu jenis hormon), obat-obat anti kanker, graft suppression therapy (perawatan setelah pencangkokan bagian tubuh, dengan obat-obat yang menekan sistem kekebalan tubuh), AIDS; pasien kanker – terutama pasien leukemia; lebih jarang dilaporkan – pada pasien penderita diabetes, pengecilan hati ( cirrhotic ), asma, dan radang kronis pada usus besar ( ulcerative colitis ); orang-orang tua; orang normal—beberapa laporan menunjukkan bahwa orang normal yang sehat dapat menjadi rentan, walaupun penggunaan antasida atau cimetidine mungkin berpengaruh. Kasus listeriosis yang pernah terjadi di Swiss, yang melibatkan keju, menunjukkan bahwa orang sehat dapat terserang penyakit ini, terutama bila makanan terkontaminasi organisme ini dalam jumlah besar.

Buah Melon di Colorado Infeksi Warga
Buah Melon di Colorado Infeksi Warga | Pikiran Rakyat Online
COLORADO, (PRLM).- Buah sejenis melon (cantaloupe) yang tumbuh di negara bagian Colorado, AS, diduga telah menjadi penyebab terjadinya wabah listeria monocytogenes yang menewaskan sedikitnya 13 warga setempat dan menginfeksi puluhan lainnya. Demikian diungkapkan Pusat Pencegahan dan Penanggulangan Penyakit (CDC) AS yang berpusat di Georgia itu, seperti dikutip AFP, Rabu (28/9). Menurut CDC, semua melon yang mematikan itu bermerek Rocky Ford yang berasal dari perkebunan Jensen di wilayah barat Amerika. Buah sejenis melon tersebut memang lazim tumbuh di wilayah Granada, Colorado, AS. Sejauh ini, kata otoritas CDC, korban yang tewas itu berasal dari bebagai wilayah di AS, yaitu, empat korban dari New Mexico, dua korban, masing-masing dari Colorado dan Texas dan masing-masing seorang berasal dari Kansas, Maryland, Missouri, Nebraska, New Mexico, dan Oklahoma. Sementara korban yang terinfeksi dan saat ini dirawat berasal dari 18 negara bagian di Amerika. Berdasarkan penelusuran CDC, jumlah korban yang terinfeksi mencapai 72 orang. Pemerintah Amerika dilaporkan sudah mengambil sejumlah upay untuk menyetop penyebaran wabah tersebut. Listeria monocytogenes merupakan bakteri penyebab listeriosis, dan di dunia kesehatan dikenal sebagai bakteri pangan yang paling berbahaya. Kasus wabah listeria ini kali pertama terdeteksi pada 15 Agustus lalu. Harian New York Times menyebutkan, penyebaran listeria ini merupakan wabah terburuk yang terkait dengan pangan dalam sepuluh tahun terakhir. (A-133/A-26).***

Playing with BLOCKQUOTE and CSS : Dressing up Your Quatations
Using the blockquote tag can result in really boring looking quotations. After all, the standard format for blockquoted text is to be indented on the right and left about 40px. That's it. But with CSS we can do better. We can create blockquoted text that pops from your Web page and makes your quotes a useful design element, and not just more indented text.
Add a Border
A simple way to improve blockquoted text is to add a border around it. This tells your readers that they are looking at something special. For example, this CSS will put a 2 pixel wide black border around all blockquotes in a document:
blockquote { border : 2px solid #000; }
And as with any CSS border, you can make it dotted or dashed, make it wide or narrow, and change the color to make it match your page.
Blockquote Widths
But don't just stop with the border, the width of a blockquote can be defined with CSS. If you don't define it, the browser will define it, and that can result in a blockquote that takes up your entire screen. It's a good idea to define the width of your quotations, and this style call will define all blockquotes as 200px wide:
blockquote { width: 200px; }
Aligning Your Blockquotes
Once you have a narrower blockquote, you'll want your other text to wrap around it and move up to it without crowding. This style sheet will define all blockquotes as 200 pixels wide, and floating on the right, so all text will flow around them to the left:
blockquote { width: 200px; float: right; }
But you'll also want to play with the margins and padding on your quotations if you're going to float them in the page so that there is not an excess of whitespace near your quotations:
blockquote { width: 200px; float: right; margin: 0px; padding: 10px; }
Blockquote Backgrounds
One of the easiest ways to get your quotations to stand out is to change the color of the background. Now, with CSS you can use an image as a background or you can simply change the color. Sometimes changing the color is all that is required to bring attention to your blockquote:
blockquote { background-color: #ccc; }
Add in Quotes to Your Blockquote
If you're using blockquote as it's supposed to be used, then you may need quotations to precede and follow the quotation. And with CSS2 you can do this (try this out in an XHTML compliant browser, like Mozilla or Firefox):
blockquote { quotes: "\201C" "\201D"; } blockquote:before { content: open-quote; font-weight: bold; } blockquote:after { content: close-quote; font-weight: bold; }
Putting it All Together
And here's what your entire completed style sheet looks like:
blockquote {
border : 2px solid #000;
width: 200px;
float: right;
margin: 0px;
padding: 10px;
background-color: #ccc;
quotes: "\201C" "\201D";
}
blockquote:before { content: open-quote; font-weight: bold; }
blockquote:after { content: close-quote; font-weight: bold; }31 Minutes To Building A Better Blog
Darren Rowse of ProBlogger.net is running a campaign called 31 Days to Building a Better Blog. The idea is that bloggers are challenged to participate in a practical blogging tip every day of August. By the end of of the month you are bound to have a much better blog! *Update (16 August 2007) Just to clarify, the rest of this entry is my attempt at some humour, so take it with a pinch of salt! For some tongue-in-cheek blogging advice, read on… I think that ProBlogger’s campaign is a great idea, yet the title hints at a small dilemma – it takes a whole month. Thirty one days. Seven hundred and forty four hours. Forty four thousand six hundred and forty minutes! Now, you see, the problem is that I am lazy and and I know you are too. never even considered replacing an empty loo roll. Never. We are the sort of people who climb over those ribbon-barriers in the bank instead of walking the zigzag. We park on the sidewalk, use the elevator and have never even considered replacing an empty loo roll. Never. So, to make life a little easier, I have decided to save us all some time by compiling a minute-by-minute schedule for building a better blog in just over half an hour. Make sure you have an ample supply of beverages at your disposal. Set your stopwatch, you wouldn’t want to overwork yourself now. Here goes: I’m sure there are some quick fixes that I haven’t thought of… Maybe 31 seconds to building a better blog?
