PADANG, Indonesia – Rescuers pulled two women alive from their collapsed college, nearly two days after a powerful earthquake devastated western Indonesia, as cries for help from a flattened hotel spurred the frantic search for more survivors Friday.
One of the survivors high-fived her rescuers as they carried her to safety.

The government said nearly 3,000 may still be trapped under the rubble after Wednesday's 7.6-magnitude quake toppled thousands of buildings on Sumatra island. At least 715 people are already confirmed dead. Paramedics laid out dozens of corpses, and the stench of decomposing bodies filled the air.


Some victims have yet to receive help. In a district north of the hard-hit city of Padang, stricken residents said they'd seen no rescue workers. Most structures there had been leveled, and people were using shovels and their bare hands to clear landslides and dig out bodies.

Against a grim backdrop of grief and destruction, rescuers found a reason to cheer: Ratna Kurniasari Virgo, 19, an English major sophomore, and a teacher, Susi Revika Wulan Sari, were found alive under the rubble of their college in Padang, the Foreign Language School of Prayoga.

Sari was extricated at 5:20 p.m. (1020 GMT, 6:20 a.m. EDT), almost exactly 48 hours after the college crumbled in the 5.15 p.m. quake on Wednesday. She spent the time pinned down by the rubble among dead bodies of her students. On Friday, she beamed and slapped the hands of the rescue workers as they carried her away.

"She was conscious. Only her legs and fingers are swollen because she was squeezed," said the institute's director, Teresia Lianawaty. "Thank God! It is a miracle."
Earlier Friday, Virgo was yanked out, also conscious, after a 40-hour ordeal of being trapped in the rubble.

With excited shouts and giving words of encouragement to each other, rescuers pulled Virgo hands-first from a hole drilled in the debris. Her olive-colored T-shirt almost spotless, Virgo was laid on a stretcher before being taken to hospital to be treated for a broken leg.

"She is fine, conscious and does not have any life-threatening injuries," said Nining Rosanti, a nurse, at the hospital.

Elsewhere in the city, at the site of the former Ambacang Hotel where as many as 100 were feared trapped, rescue workers detected signs of life under a hill of tangled steel, concrete slabs and broken bricks of the three-story structure, said Gagah Prakosa, a spokesman of the rescue team.

"We heard some voices of people under the rubble, but as you can see the damage is making it very difficult to extricate them," Prakosa said, as a backhoe cleared the debris noisily.

The voices were heard 44 hours after the disaster, giving hope that many lives could still be saved.

But as the first foreign relief teams made their way to the scene, Indonesian officials said a lack of heavy digging equipment was hampering the search.
"Heavy equipment and rescuers are our priority," said spokesman Priyadi Kardono of the Health Ministry's national disaster management agency.

Kardono said Friday that 715 people have been confirmed dead and 2,400 hospitalized. U.N. spokeswoman Laksmita Noviera in Jakarta said the United Nations fears the toll could rise to 1,100.

That appeared a conservative estimate. Kardono said nearly 3,000 people may still be trapped under rubble. It is the first confirmed government figure for the missing, suggesting that the final death toll could be in the thousands.

The damage from the undersea quake was believed most extensive around Padang, a coastal town of 900,000 people and the capital of heavily populated West Sumatra province.

But about 50 miles (80 kilometers) to the north, in the rural, hilly district of Pariaman, which is home to about 370,000 people, an Associated Press reporter saw virtually no buildings still standing. The region was largely cut off and had received no outside help, leaving many to clear roads of landslides and dig out bodies using shovels and bare hands.

Officials said more than 10,000 homes and buildings had been destroyed there. It was unclear how many had died.

At a makeshift center for the homeless, dozens sheltered from the burning sun under a 15-by-30 foot (5-by-10 meter) canopy donated by a local business.

"It's too crowded here at night. We need more space and we need more shelter," said resident Ahmad Razali. "I'm worried about looters. They are out there and the police are too busy to do anything. We haven't gotten any help from the government yet."
Medical teams, search dogs, backhoes and emergency supplies, some of it given by other countries, were flown into Sumatra on Friday after Indonesia issued an appeal for international help.

"Please be patient," Indonesia's President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono told the crowd of people whose relatives are missing, assuring them that the government was doing everything in its power to save lives.

But death was pervasive as bodies began decomposing in the tropical heat.
Paramedics laid out dozens of corpses at the Dr. M. Djamil General Hospital, Padang's biggest, which also was partly damaged in the quake. The air was filled with the wail of ambulance sirens.

Anwari, who uses only one name, burst into tears when asked who he was waiting for outside the hospital.

"Don't ask me about my daughter ... She is still missing," Anwari said, between sobs. "Please don't ask me ... it reminds me of her." He was too distraught to say anything more.

With communications and power supplies still down in many areas, fuel was being rationed to focus on locating the missing.

Twenty-eight tons of supplies, including water, medicine and basic food provisions, were flown into regional airports to be distributed to the needy. Aid workers handed tents to some of the tens of thousands of people made homeless, disaster management spokesman Kardono said.

Russia sent two planeloads of supplies, along with doctors and nurses to treat the seriously injured.

Also donating millions of dollars in aid and financial assistance were governments and charities of Australia, Britain, China, Germany, Japan, the European Union, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland, Denmark and the United States, Indonesian officials said.

President Barack Obama, who spent part of his childhood in Indonesia, pledged to support earthquake recovery efforts there, as well as provide assistance to the South Pacific countries of Samoa and American Samoa, which were hit by a deadly tsunami Tuesday. The United States pledged $3.3 million in immediate assistance to Indonesia.

Indonesia sits on a major geological fault zone and experiences dozens of quakes every year. Wednesday's quake originated on the same fault line that spawned the 2004 Asian tsunami that killed 230,000 people in a dozen nations.
It was the deadliest since May 2006, when more than 3,000 people died in the city of Yogyakarta.

Finance Minister Sri Mulyani said the government has allocated $25 million for a two-month emergency response. She said the earthquake will seriously affect Indonesia's economic growth, because West Sumatra is a main producer of crude palm oil.

As a successor to the young people we should excited as the heroes who died in the struggle to defend this nation to become Home Affairs Republic of Indonesia. They willing property, soul, body, and even he be die. Therefore, we should be grateful we can be independent nation. To commemorate the services of a fallen hero, let us fill this August to have have positive activity.

As a diligent study, competitions held at school or home environment, and of course we as a generation we have a young generation must be forward, faith, pray to Allah swt. , hold fast to the religion of Islam, and of course free of drugs. But it's not happening to me and my close friends. Why ?.... Because it usually in my school have a local competition, on that day there was only a football game just which is not a favorite. I also have to find another activity, I finally found an interesting activity that is playing Internet lho .... Neither Internet cafe in the lyrics of my school.

I was in the spirit into the school's cafe. My internet cafe in school, my personal computer view that death is useless. Oh yes ... I'd love to play online but the client computer can have only three computers. I must get line and what I can only play just one hour. My heart is not satisfied with it. I want to play online again. And the day after my dhuhur cafe run to school with an athletic sweat my marathon went, in vain I was sweating but my computer can not anymore. All the computers using it full time, only three computers can and the other computer is still broken. It's usual Mr Insan as a teacher did not immediately to improve tick.

I'm so confused what to do so .... I had a friend who violate the hobby Rafiqi took me to escape to the outside school cafe. I think the invitation, which can not be lust restrained incitement for violating school rules. I follow the incitement Rafiqi. I ask to Rafiqi : "Who follow us?" He replied: "He is Rizal (the short man)" the short man named Rizal Primary with little body could not grow tall. Me and my friends had finally escaped through the side door of the tomb is very scary. Like the terrorists who protect the enemy I walk like crab alert. With a sense of loss... had reached the Rice-net cafe is located outside the school. Arriving I see the kids 8th grade school situated therein. With a heart that my misgivings nge-net.

Nothing feels the time near Afternoon, I have to get back to my boarding school. With the return just a case of another terrorist. I safely returned to my boarding school without getting caught my teacher. I do the usual activities at school. After praying Isya 'suddenly I and my friends had been called through the speaker to go to school office. I and my friends headed to the office.

My entered the office, look mr. Insan a circle seated on the throne of emotion. With some trembling I was asked by mr Insan about what I do during the day. After that mr. Insan (my teacher) into the dorm and I was told to wait with my friends earlier. Then mr Insan out with sharp scissors. I and my friends sent out to the front office. For what it's sharp scissors? I wondered. I was told to stand and I was told to wait in line for surprise to buld. My turn has come a slang my nice hair changed as keroak field. I am sad and ashamed of my deeds do. Days should be happy with the August 17, 2008 became a gray day with a very horrendous experience. I always teased my friends who said I looked like a funny clown show. Friends who violate laugh me to don’t do repent to a be a mistake earlier. Lots of wisdom which I get over the sad incident that I realized that it made the same mistake. it must be eliminated. Remember this "garbage in the sea must be eliminated to the edge of the sea shore".

Pada tanggal 17 Agustus yang menjadi peringatan kemerdekaan, Semua warga Indonesia berbondong-bondong untuk merayakan hari kemenangan rakyat Indonesia itu. Sebagai penerus bangsa muda kita harus bersemangat seperti para pahlawan yang gugur dalam perjuangan membela bangsa ini untuk menjadi Negeri Kesatuan Republik Indonesia. Mereka relakan harta, jiwa, raga, dan bahkan nyawapun ditaruhkannya. Oleh karena itu kita harus bersyukur bangsa kita dapat merdeka.

Untuk mengenang jasa para pahlawan yang gugur, mari kita isi bulan Agutus ini dengan suatu yang positif. Seperti belajar yang tekun, mengadakan lomba-lomba di sekolah atau di lingkungan rumah, dan tentunya kita sebagai generasi muda kita harus mejadikan generasi muda yang maju, beriman, taqwa kepada Allah swt. ,berpegang teguh kepada agama Islam, dan tentunya bebas dari narkoba.

Tetapi, itu bukan terjadi padaku dan teman dekatku. Mengapa?.... Karena biasanya sekolhanku itu megadakan semacam perlombaan Agustusan ,pada hari itu tidak ada hanya ada permainan sepak bola saja itupun suatu yang menjadi bukan kesukaanku. Akupun harus mencari kegitan yang lain, akhirnya ku temukan kegiatan yang menarik yaitu bermain Internet lho… . Akupun lirik warnet in the my school. Aku dengan semangat menuju warnet school itu.

Ku masuk warnet school,ku pandang komputer-kompter yang wafat tak berguna lagi. Oh ya… aku ingin sekali main internet tapi computer client yang bisa ada tiga computer saja. Ku harus cepet-cepetan mengantri dan yang ku hanya dapat bermain se-jam aja. Hati ku tak puas dengan itu. Ku ingin sekali bermain internet lagi.

Dan pada siang hari setelah sholat dhuhur ku lari ke warnet school itu dengan keringat seorang atletik maraton ku masuk ,dengan sia-sia ku berkeringat tapi ku tak dapat computer lagi. Semua yang memakai computer itu full time, hanya tiga computer yang bisa dan computer yang lain itu masih rusak. Biasa nya itu mr. Insan sebagai guru tik tak segera mempebaikinya.

Aku jadi bingung apa yang harus kulakukan ya… . Ada temanku yang berhobi melanggar alias si Rafiqi mengajak ku untuk kabur ke warnet luar school. Aku berpikir ajakan itu, nafsu yang tak dapat terkendalkan mengahasutku untuk melanggar peraturan sekolah. Hasuatan Rafiqi ku ikuti. Ku tanya pada Rafiqi : “Sopo wae sing arep melok kabur ?”jawabnya:”sing melok raja bokep cilik” Bokep cilik itu bernama Rizal Pratama dgn tubuh mungilnya tak dapat tumbuh tinggi . Aku dan teman-temanku tadi akhirnya kabur melewati pintu pinggir makam yang menyeramkan sekali.

Seperti para teroris yang melindungi dari musuh aku berjalan memberangkang siap siaga. Dengan rasa los… sudah sampai di Padi-net yaitu warnet yang letaknya di luar school. Sesampainya aku lihat anak-anak kelas 8 sekolahku bnyak yang berada disana. Dengan hati yang was-was ku nge-net. Tak terasa waktu mendekati Asar, aku harus segera kembali ke my boarding school. Dengan kembali sama sepeti teroris lagi. Aku dengan selamat kembali ke my boarding school tanpa ketahuan ustadzku. Aku melakukan aktivitas seperti biasanya di school.

Setelah sholat Isya’ tiba-tiba aku dan teman-temanku tadi dipanggil melalui speaker school untuk menuju ke kantor. Aku dan teman-temanku menuju ke kantor. Ku masuk kantor itu, terlihat mr. Indan yang duduk diatas singgasana lingkaran emosi. Dengan rasa gemetar aku ditanya oleh mr Insan tntang yang ku lakukan pada siang hari. Setelah itu mr. Insan masuk ke asrama ustadz dan aku disuruh menunggunya bersama teman-temanku tadi.

Lalu keluarlah mr Insan dengan membawa gunting tajam. Aku dan teman-temanku disuruh keluar ke depan kantor. Untuk apa ya gunting tajam itu ?tanyaku dalam hati. Aku disuruh berdiri dan aku terkejut disuruh mengantri untuk digundul. Giliranku sudah tiba rambut indahku yang gaul berubah seperti ladang yang keroak. Aku sedih dan malu atas perbuatan yang ku perbuat .

Hari yang semestinya bahagia dengan 17 Agustus 2008 menjadi hari yang kelabu dengan pengalaman yang menghebohkan sekali. Aku selalu diejek teman-temanku yang katanya aku itu tampak seperti tontonan badut lucu. Teman-teman yang menertawanku memberatkanku untuk melanggar lagi seorang menjadi bertaubat kepada kesalahan seorang tadi. Banyak sekali hikmah yang ku dapatkan atas kejadian yang memilukan itu aku sadar kalau sesprang itu melakukan kesalahan itu pasti dapat tersingkirkan. Ingatlah ini” sampah yang berada dilaut itu pasti akan tersingkirkan laut menuju ke pinggiran pantai”.

Solar System past the center of the Earth is solar system (system geosentris), but the theory has many weaknesses in explaining the nature of planetary movement. Nicolaus Copernicus geosentris reorganize the system into heliosentris, the sun as the central solar system. The Solar System, the sun and the system of celestial body that is tied to the solar gravitation law. The member of Solar System :

Planet
The requirements according to the International Austonomical Union (IAU) that the celestial body is called a planet, namely:
1. Orbit on stars.
2. Have a sufficient self-gravity to form shapes to be in a state of balance
3. Not strong enough to start fusion reactions essentially
4. The Orbit don’t join up with another celestial body orbit.

There are 8 planets in Solar System: Merkurius, Venus, Bumi, Mars, Jupiter, Saturnus, Uranus, Neptunus.

How about Pluto ?

As we know based on the IAU decision on 24 August 2006, we have left that Pluto is a planet. Pluto is found in February 1930 by Cylde William Tambaugh (1906-1997), killed as a planet because it does not meet the three conditions classified as a planet dwarf planet. The orbit of Pluto join up with another celestial body, namely the planet Neptunus.

Satellites
It is the object space that encircle the planet.
Movements planet are:
1. Rotate the axis
2. Revolt against the planet
3 Evolved along with the planet to the sun Almost all of the planet in the solar system has a satellite, except merkurius and venus

Asteroid

s a small celestial body that encircle the sun. Most of the path of the asteroid path is the planet mars and Jupiter. Differences asteroid and the planet are on the size, shape asteroid smaller than a planet. Asteroid are also often called minor planet. Asteroid yang terbesar adalah Ceres dengan diameter 940 km. The largest asteroid Ceres with diameter 940 km. Number of huge asteroid about 100.000 pieces that have a diameter of more than 20 km is only 30 units. Contohnya : Ceres, Pallas, Vesta, Higeia, Interamnia dan Davida. For example: Ceres, Pallas, Vesta, Higeia, Interamnia and Daisy. Form of asteroid-like orbit ellipse, because the number of lots to form a ribbon asteroid. Some have asteroid orbit deviate from the main orbit between mars and Jupiter Trojan asteroid that is. Asteroid Trojan adalah kumpulan asteroid yang orbitnya berimpitan dengan orbit planet Jupiter. Trojan asteroid is a collection of asteroid the axis orbit with the planet Jupiter.
