Bicycle Chain Basic

2010-11-12T00:13:00.001+07:00

When trying to build a bike to look like a fixie, I have come to the stage of installing the wheels measuring 27 and replace the transmission system into a single rate. My bike is initially normal mountain bike that uses a multi-speed transmission. And it turns out the chain can not be used for the single speed transmission. I thought I had bought the wrong sprocket.

Apparently there is a fundamental difference between the chain used on single speed with multi-speed chain. Chain single speed has a width of 1 / 8 "and multi-speed chain has a width of 3 / 32", this size difference, of course, led to my multi-speed chain can not get attached to my new single speed.

Above, single speed chain. Figure below, multi-speed chain.

Indo Saparella

2010-08-02T17:59:00.003+07:00

Healthy drinks from Jogjakarta. Got it from Gudeg Hj. Rini Wijilan Jogjakarta.

What is Sarsaparilla? Sarsaparilla (Smilax regelii and other closely related species of Smilax) is a perennial trailing vine with prickly stems; it is native to tropical America and the West Indies. Its name (which is zarzaparrilla in Spanish) comes from the Spanish words zarza for "shrub" and parrilla for "little grape vine."

Originally derived from the dried roots of tropical smilax vines, this flavor is usually associated with a carbonated drink popular in the mid-1800s. The primary uses of sarsaparilla include the flavoring of beverages, and folk medicine.

'Melasti', When God Take A Bath

2008-12-31T20:37:00.004+07:00

I don't mean to insult God, God is outside my control. He/She controls me. Take a bath doesn't mean take a shower like human beings, its just our understanding not in the God understanding. Well, we didn't brought God actually, its just a symbol of God. We have several holly statue or 'pratima' in our temple. On a holly day like this, we bring thoose statues to the ocean. Ocean is a holly place before the horizon. This concept was came from "Tirta Kamandalu story of Hinduism epic". Its a long story why we choose ocean as a holly place.

While God "take a bath", we pray. We pray for our ceremony, we pray for universe harmony. Then after that we hope the universe got their holly spirit by "taking a bath", a spiritual bath to get our "bhuana agung" and "bhuana alit" become holly and pure.

This picture taken Dec 31 2008 (the last day of 2008) in Parangkusumo, Jogja. Proceding "Ngenteg Linggih Pura Eka Dharma Kasihan Bantul Yogyakarta."

'Odalan Merajan' Family Temple

2008-12-25T13:48:00.001+07:00

It's 'Budha Cemeng Kelawu', Balinese calendar time, when we were held a ceremony for family temple. This ceremony held based on Bali Hinduism tradition. This ceremony called 'Odalan' or 'Piodalan'. The main purpose of this ceremony is to sanctify the family temple. We bring some offerings for the gods.

About the family temple it self, in Bali, all the Hindu family has their own family temple located on a holy place of their house yard. The common temple consist of some 'pelinggih' such as 'Kemulan', 'Taksu', 'Piyasan' and 'Tugu'. Another temple maybe consist of more than thoose buildings.

To pray in the family temple feels like we are come to our beloved ancestry back. As the heredirarity of ancestos, it is a must that we have to show our faith to them by held a ceremony like 'Piodalan'.

Jembrana's Head Office

2008-12-22T13:48:00.002+07:00

Jembrana's e-government started here. Today, i have this done.. the first thing of all my next journey. The head office of Jembrana's government was huge. They settle on a very expansive area, don't know sure. The Parking area located out side the main sphere. The arrangement of the buildings so presentable.

Jembrana has motto "kalau mau pasti bisa", while when i translate it to the wild translation it could be "if want sure can" (just don't make it so serious). The motto closely means "we can do it, if we want to" (more polite).

E-governement award 2008 (WartaEGov magazine version) bestow Jembrana as "Best of The Best" e-Government Indonesia 2008. By this succes makes Jembrana become the most wanted government of Indonesia to be lesson-learned.

Feels like my own. Welcome to Beraban.

The Older The Prayer

2008-12-17T09:41:00.003+07:00

You should believe me, in Bali, the old lady is the person who prays a lot. Coz they out from their daily work getting financial needs for the family. Their grown children now has built a new family and new responsibility.

The old lady is the person who knows the pure culture of Hinduism Bali. They teach the new Hinduism generation how to make ceremony equipment such as "Banten" or "Sesaji". Their life mostly dedicated for religion life of the family. While their children do some works out there, the old lady bring prayers for them.

And so, the Balinesse life goes on. In the Spirit of Hinduism.

'Jineng' Bali House

2008-12-14T15:32:00.001+07:00

'Jineng' is not as the main house building in Bali. Jineng mostly functioned as ber-lazy place or 'bermalas-malasan'

Balinese architechture placed Jineng in the yard of a house. Others can ussualy place Jineng on the green garden as in villas.

The main function of Jineng is as a place to put rices or 'gabah' after harvest time. The top part or at the roof side has this function. While we can sit bellow. We can use it as a place talking with family ane others.

Lots of uniqe buildings in Bali. Lucky me, i have one.

Bali Jamfest 2008

2008-12-08T12:38:00.005+07:00

Who was on that video?? they are Dewa Budjana on guitar and Trie Utami singing. They sang on the name of "Nyanyian Dharma" Foundation. On the other occation there was Wayan Balawan with guitar klinik. They are Balinesse artist, and my most fave.

Bali Jamfest 2008 (stands for Bali Jambore Music Festival 2008), was held in two days in Ngurah Rai stadium Bali. Another musicians such as: all balinesse singer Nanoe Biroe, XXX, SID, Dek Ulik and many more... i just wait for Budjana and Balawan's performance.

I know more videos and pictures needed to describe the crowd, but how ever this is still my mobile activity needs more bandwidth to post all the frame. One is more than enough to be an example.

There was two main stages.. the artists sing countinous one by one like carnaval. When Nanoe Biroe has their turn, the crowds were more energic and rush. So did when XXX and SID.

But, poorly when Balawan and Bali Guitar Club brought Led Zeppelin song, the crowds cooling down and seems like "kebo mebalih gong". They didn't understand the song. What the..f>>. Or maybe they were tired. I don't know..

Bravo Balinesse music...

Typically Balinese Breakfast

2008-12-01T09:16:00.001+07:00

Are they some kind of food? Ofcourse yes. Real nutritious. Coz consist of reach taste and flavour, deep spicy.

Then what are they? Rice as the main menu. We have 'gondo' for vegetables, fries egg, mixed shrimp or 'pencokan udang' and some fried fish or we call 'gorengan pindang'. Well, sounds tasty right? Yeah.. Real good.

Gondo is good for our health. It gives us vitamins for our eyes. Coz they are real real green. Shrimp, is the source of protein, and also fish or pindang, rich of protein.

Theese what i have for breakfast this morning. Made by my grandmother. Only available in Bali.

Thoose pictures are some of computer accesories. From left to right, CD case, mouse and USB flash disk. The looks of thoose equipments are cheerfull.. The colors and shapes are move to a many kinds form.

Nowdays, the produsen of that accesories make their products more atractive, so the consumers not only get the fucntionality, but also they are confident with their stylish stuff.

Especially in Jogjakarta, there are many students with fashion-minded needs. While they fulfill the needs of school equipment like computer, they can also make it more rainbows. Example, an mickey-moused mouse, cheerfull-colored CD case, many form USB flash disk and many more.

At least, the passion of computer needs are growing by years in Indonesia, and information-society are trigered by new form of computer equipments like thoose stuff.

Latihan megambel di Jogja

2008-11-20T00:19:00.003+07:00

Kalau boleh kubilang, megambel adalah aktifitas lain yg kulakukan selain having fun dan belajar di Jogja.

Di Jogja kita menyebutnya sebagai sebuah komunitas 'sekaha demen'. Ya.. Karena memang siapa yang demen2 megambel, ya megambel. Ga peduli bisa ato tidak. Agar menjadi bisa, ya belajar.. tetapi harus demen dulu, baru nanti tidak cepet bosan.

Ayo mari2 lestarikan kesenian Bali dimanapun kita sekalian berada. Kuyakin, khususnya di Jogja pasti banyak mahasiswa baru jebolan festival2 gong kebyar, ato baleganjur, ato sekan drama di Bali. Mari bergabung demen2 ati e di Asrama Saraswati Jogja.

Cap cay cui..

Buku

2008-11-19T01:16:00.001+07:00

Iseng aja pengen foto buku. Hanya kupikir, sampai kapan buku2 ini akan tetap ada. Jaman kan udah elektronik. Berbagai pengetahuan bisa ditampilkan lebih interaktif.. Adakah faktor kebiasaan dan faktor kebisaan dalam cara mencari pengetahuan? Sebab ada orang yang merasa lebih nyaman membaca versi cetakan ketimbang elektronik.

Faktor2 lain yang terpikir olehku adalah:
1. Versi cetakan adalah lebih resmi, karena ada pihak yg secara tegas dan jelas bertanggung jawab mengenai isinya. Resmi untuk referensi ilmiah.
2. Tidak semua orang memiliki media elektronik.
3. Mengisi kekosongan ruangan, biar kelihatan akademis.
He he.. Kena deh..

Acara Dharma Santhi d Jogja identik dgn perayaan Nyepi di Jogja. Namun, kali ini momen yg diambil bukan sebagai rangkaian Nyepi, melainkan dalam kemasan pegelaran kesenian Bali.

Pelaksana kegiatan adalah KMHD ISI, MAHIMA SSG dan KMHD AKBID YO. Pementasan dilaksanakan di gedung theater ISI.

Gmana acaranya? Namanya juga ISI, so pasti bebanyolan ataw bercandaan. Cuma dsini ada Tari Jauk yg kegirangan di panggung setelah menari. Suksees...!

Pementasan puncak menampilkan fragmentari 'I Godogan' ataw kodok besar. Godogan lahir dari seorang ibu yang bekung ataw tidak bisa punya anak. Gmana detailnya? Pokoke lucu.. Klo mw cerita yg lbh serius, mungkin sumber lainya bs mnjelaskan lbh detail.

Perpustakaan

2008-11-11T10:44:00.002+07:00

Yap yap.. Mesti asumsinya penuh dgn buku dak kertas2 penelitian. Jaman sekarang, informasi bisa diakses darimana saja, sepanjang ada jalur internet. Cool banged...

Ini adalah situasi di perpus STIE YKPN Jogja. Dingin banged dsini (emang dasar gw ndeso). Sambil nunggu bimbingan, blogging2..

Mahasiswanya sini pada menyimpan segala bentuk informasi di leptopnya.. Akses internetnya full. Cuma saja, pagi kok sepi ya? Apa karena lokasinya di perpus, trus jadi terkesan akademis banged?

Mestinya enggak ya.. Tapi memang mending internetan di mol, bisa sambil cuci mata cuci hati..

Bimbingaaan...

Warung burjo di jogja

2008-11-09T11:53:00.002+07:00

Warung burjo...
Hm.. Asal kata dari 'bubur kacang ijo'. Awalnya memang dikenal sebagai penjual bubur kacang ijo ala Jawa Barat sana.

Seiring perkembangan ekonomi dan politik Indonesia, warung burjo berkembang ntk memenuhi kebutuhan mahasiswa dgn menjual makanan sederhana seperti nasi telor, nasi sarden bahkan nasi goreng. Sampai komoditi bubur kacang ijo pun mulai berkurang.

Mulai tahun 2002 warung burjo mulai ada dalam database warung makan ku. Waktu itu harga burjo IDR 1.100. Tahun 2008 berkembang menjadi IDR 2.000. Komoditi tambahan berupa nasi telor dan sebangsanya adalah IDR 3.000. Demikian juga dgn mie instant.

Warung burjo sangat populer terutama tengah malam, ujan-ujan ato pada saat kantong lagi tekor. Makan nasi telor, tambah es teh bila perlu gorengan satu aja cukup bwt sekali periode makan...

Hujan dan angin ribut 7 Nov 08

2008-11-09T00:20:00.001+07:00

Pada saat itu adalah bencana angin ribut yg disertai hujan deras. Peristiwa ini terjadi dalam durasi cukup lama. Hanya saja video-nya tdk bgt panjang.

Angin ribut dan hujan ternyata memporak-porandakan lingkungan sekitar bundaran UGM-JOGJA. Banyak pohon besar ambruk, bahkan akarnya tdk kuat lagi menahan pohon, dan akhirnya tumbang tertiup angin. Tdk hanya pepohonan, atap-atap gedung pun berterbangan, dan beberapa atap gedung tertiup sampai ke jalan.

Untuk membersikan sisa2 bencana, petugas kebersihan UGM bekerjasama dengan satpam. Pohon2 yg masih rapuh sengaja ditebang agar tdk menimbulkan kekhawatiran tumbang.
