It is also unstable at high concentrations, decaying to ordinary diatomic oxygen (in about half an hour in atmospheric conditions):</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">2 O<sub>3</sub> → 3 O<sub>2</sub></p>
<p>This reaction proceeds more rapidly with increasing temperature and decreasing pressure. <a title="Deflagration" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deflagration"><span style="color:windowtext;">Deflagration</span></a> of ozone can be triggered by a spark<span id="more-50"></span>, and can occur in ozone concentrations of 10 wt% or higher.</p>
<h3><a id="Metals" name="Metals"></a><span class="mw-headline">Metals</span></h3>
<p>Ozone will oxidize <a title="Metal" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal"><span style="color:windowtext;">metals</span></a> (except <a title="Gold" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gold"><span style="color:windowtext;">gold</span></a>, <a title="Platinum" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platinum"><span style="color:windowtext;">platinum</span></a>, and <a title="Iridium" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iridium"><span style="color:windowtext;">iridium</span></a>) to <a title="Oxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">oxides</span></a> of the metals in their highest <a title="Oxidation state" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state"><span style="color:windowtext;">oxidation state</span></a>:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">2 Cu<sup>1+</sup><sub>(aq)</sub> + 2 H<sub>3</sub>O<sup>+</sup><sub>(aq)</sub> + O<sub>3(g)</sub> → 2 Cu<sup>2+</sup><sub>(aq)</sub> + 3 H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>(l)</sub> + O<sub>2(g)</sub></p>
<h3><a id="Non-metals" name="Non-metals"></a><span class="mw-headline">Non-metals</span></h3>
<p>Ozone also increases the oxidation number of oxides:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;"><a title="Nitric oxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitric_oxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">NO</span></a> + O<sub>3</sub> → <a title="Nitrogen dioxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_dioxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">NO<sub>2</sub></span></a> + O<sub>2</sub></p>
<p>The above reaction the accompanied by <a title="Chemiluminescence" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemiluminescence"><span style="color:windowtext;">chemiluminescence</span></a>. The NO<sub>2</sub> can be further oxidized:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">NO<sub>2</sub> + O<sub>3</sub> → NO<sub>3</sub> + O<sub>2</sub></p>
<p>The NO<sub>3</sub> formed can react with NO<sub>2</sub> to form <a title="Dinitrogen pentoxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinitrogen_pentoxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">N<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub></span></a>:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">NO<sub>2</sub> + NO<sub>3</sub> → N<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub></p>
<p>Ozone reacts with <a title="Carbon" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon"><span style="color:windowtext;">carbon</span></a> to form <a title="Carbon dioxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_dioxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">carbon dioxide</span></a>, even at room temperature:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">C + 2 O<sub>3</sub> → CO<sub>2</sub> + 2 O<sub>2</sub></p>
<p>Ozone does not react with ammonium <a title="Salt" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt"><span style="color:windowtext;">salts</span></a> but it reacts with <a title="Ammonia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia"><span style="color:windowtext;">ammonia</span></a> to form <a title="Ammonium nitrate" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonium_nitrate"><span style="color:windowtext;">ammonium nitrate</span></a>:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">2 <a title="Ammonia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ammonia"><span style="color:windowtext;">NH<sub>3</sub></span></a> + 4 O<sub>3</sub> → NH<sub>4</sub>NO<sub>3</sub> + 4 O<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O</p>
<p>Ozone reacts with <a title="Sulfide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfide"><span style="color:windowtext;">sulfides</span></a> to make <a title="Sulfate" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate"><span style="color:windowtext;">sulfates</span></a>:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;"><a title="Lead(II) sulfide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead%28II%29_sulfide"><span style="color:windowtext;">PbS</span></a> + 4 O<sub>3</sub> → <a title="Lead(II) sulfate" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead%28II%29_sulfate"><span style="color:windowtext;">PbSO<sub>4</sub></span></a> + 4 O<sub>2</sub></p>
<p><a title="Sulfuric acid" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfuric_acid"><span style="color:windowtext;">Sulfuric acid</span></a> can be produced from ozone, starting either from elemental <a title="Sulfur" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur"><span style="color:windowtext;">sulfur</span></a> or from <a title="Sulfur dioxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_dioxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">sulfur dioxide</span></a>:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">S + H<sub>2</sub>O + O<sub>3</sub> → H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">3 SO<sub>2</sub> + 3 H<sub>2</sub>O + O<sub>3</sub> → 3 H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub></p>
<p>All three <a title="Atom" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atom"><span style="color:windowtext;">atoms</span></a> of ozone may also react, as in the reaction with <a title="Tin" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tin"><span style="color:windowtext;">tin</span></a>(II) chloride and <a title="Hydrochloric acid" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrochloric_acid"><span style="color:windowtext;">hydrochloric acid</span></a> and NaCl along with Ammonium Nitrate:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">3 SnCl<sub>2</sub> + 6 HCl + O<sub>3</sub> → 3 SnCl<sub>4</sub> + 3 H<sub>2</sub>O</p>
<p>In the <a title="Gas phase" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_phase"><span style="color:windowtext;">gas phase</span></a>, ozone reacts with <a title="Hydrogen sulfide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_sulfide"><span style="color:windowtext;">hydrogen sulfide</span></a> to form sulfur dioxide:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">H<sub>2</sub>S + O<sub>3</sub> → SO<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O</p>
<p>In an <a title="Aqueous" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqueous"><span style="color:windowtext;">aqueous</span></a> solution, however, two competing simultaneous reactions occur, one to produce elemental sulfur, and one to produce sulfuric acid:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;"><a title="Hydrogen sulfide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_sulfide"><span style="color:windowtext;">H<sub>2</sub>S</span></a> + O<sub>3</sub> → S + O<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">3 H<sub>2</sub>S + 4 O<sub>3</sub> → 3 <a title="Sulfuric acid" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfuric_acid"><span style="color:windowtext;">H<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub></span></a></p>
<p><a title="Iodine" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iodine"><span style="color:windowtext;">Iodine</span></a> <a title="Perchlorate" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perchlorate"><span style="color:windowtext;">perchlorate</span></a> can be made by treating iodine dissolved in cold <a title="Anhydrous" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anhydrous"><span style="color:windowtext;">anhydrous</span></a> <a title="Perchloric acid" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perchloric_acid"><span style="color:windowtext;">perchloric acid</span></a> with ozone:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">I<sub>2</sub> + 6 HClO<sub>4</sub> + O<sub>3</sub> → 2 I(ClO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> + 3 H<sub>2</sub>O</p>
<p>Solid <a title="Nitryl" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitryl"><span style="color:windowtext;">nitryl</span></a> perchlorate can be made from NO<sub>2</sub>, ClO<sub>2</sub>, and O<sub>3</sub> gases:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">2 NO<sub>2</sub> + 2 ClO<sub>2</sub> + 2 O<sub>3</sub> → 2 NO<sub>2</sub>ClO<sub>4</sub> + O<sub>2</sub></p>
<h3><a id="Combustion" name="Combustion"></a><span class="mw-headline">Combustion</span></h3>
<p>Ozone can be used for <a title="Combustion" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustion"><span style="color:windowtext;">combustion</span></a> reactions and combusting gases; ozone provides higher temperatures than combusting in <a title="Dioxygen" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dioxygen"><span style="color:windowtext;">dioxygen</span></a> (O<sub>2</sub>). The following is a reaction for the combustion of <a title="Carbon subnitride" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_subnitride"><span style="color:windowtext;">carbon subnitride</span></a> which can also cause lower temperatures:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">3 C<sub>4</sub>N<sub>2</sub> + 4 O<sub>3</sub> → 12 CO + 3 N<sub>2</sub></p>
<p>Ozone can react at cryogenic temperatures. At 77 K (-196 °C), atomic <a title="Hydrogen" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen"><span style="color:windowtext;">hydrogen</span></a> reacts with liquid ozone to form a hydrogen <a title="Superoxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superoxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">superoxide</span></a> <a title="Radical (chemistry)" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radical_%28chemistry%29"><span style="color:windowtext;">radical</span></a>, which dimerizes:<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone#cite_note-9"><span style="color:windowtext;">[10]</span></a></sup></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">H + O<sub>3</sub> → HO<sub>2</sub> + O</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">2 HO<sub>2</sub> → H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>4</sub></p>
<h3><a id="Ozonides" name="Ozonides"></a><span class="mw-headline">Ozonides</span></h3>
<p>Ozonides can be formed, which contain the <a title="Ozonide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozonide"><span style="color:windowtext;">ozonide</span></a> anion, O<sub>3</sub><sup>-</sup>. These compounds are explosive and must be stored at cryogenic temperatures. Ozonides for all the <a title="Alkali metal" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_metal"><span style="color:windowtext;">alkali metals</span></a> are known. KO<sub>3</sub>, RbO<sub>3</sub>, and CsO<sub>3</sub> can be prepared from their respective superoxides:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">KO<sub>2</sub> + O<sub>3</sub> → KO<sub>3</sub> + O<sub>2</sub></p>
<p>Although KO<sub>3</sub> can be formed as above, it can also be formed from <a title="Potassium hydroxide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_hydroxide"><span style="color:windowtext;">potassium hydroxide</span></a> and ozone:<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone#cite_note-10"><span style="color:windowtext;">[11]</span></a></sup></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">2 KOH + 5 O<sub>3</sub> → 2 KO<sub>3</sub> + 5 O<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub>O</p>
<p>NaO<sub>3</sub> and LiO<sub>3</sub> must be prepared by action of CsO<sub>3</sub> in liquid NH<sub>3</sub> on an <a title="Ion exchange resin" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_exchange_resin"><span style="color:windowtext;">ion exchange resin</span></a> containing Na<sup>+</sup> or Li<sup>+</sup> ions:<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone#cite_note-11"><span style="color:windowtext;">[12]</span></a></sup></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">CsO<sub>3</sub> + Na<sup>+</sup> → Cs<sup>+</sup> + NaO<sub>3</sub></p>
<p>Treatment with ozone of <a title="Calcium" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calcium"><span style="color:windowtext;">calcium</span></a> dissolved in ammonia leads to ammonium ozonide and not calcium ozonide:<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone#cite_note-12"><span style="color:windowtext;">[13]</span></a></sup></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">3 Ca + 10 NH<sub>3</sub> + 6 O<sub>3</sub> → Ca•6NH<sub>3</sub> + Ca(OH)<sub>2</sub> + Ca(NO<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub> + 2 NH<sub>4</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + 2 O<sub>2</sub> + H<sub>2</sub></p>
<h3><a id="Applications" name="Applications"></a><span class="mw-headline">Applications</span></h3>
<p>Ozone can be used to remove <a title="Manganese" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manganese"><span style="color:windowtext;">manganese</span></a> from <a title="Water" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water"><span style="color:windowtext;">water</span></a>, forming a <a title="Precipitate" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precipitate"><span style="color:windowtext;">precipitate</span></a> which can be filtered:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">2 Mn<sup>2+</sup> + 2 O<sub>3</sub> + 4 H<sub>2</sub>O → 2 MnO(OH)<sub>2 (s)</sub> + 2 O<sub>2</sub> + 4 H<sup>+</sup></p>
<p>Ozone will also turn <a title="Cyanide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide"><span style="color:windowtext;">c</span></a><a title="Cyanide" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanide"><span style="color:windowtext;">yanides</span></a> to the one thousand times less toxic <a title="Cyanate" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanate"><span style="color:windowtext;">cyanates</span></a>:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">CN<sup>-</sup> + O<sub>3</sub> → CNO<sup>-</sup> + O<sub>2</sub></p>
<p>Finally, ozone will also completely decompose <a title="Urea" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urea"><span style="color:windowtext;">urea</span></a>:<sup><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozone#cite_note-13"><span style="color:windowtext;">[14]</span></a></sup></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">3 H<sub>2</sub>O → O<sub>3</sub> + 6 H<sup>+</sup> + 6 e<sup>−</sup>; <a title="Table of standard electrode potentials" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_standard_electrode_potentials"><span style="color:windowtext;">ΔE<sup>o</sup></span></a> = −1.53 <a title="Volt" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt"><span style="color:windowtext;">V</span></a>;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">6 H<sup>+</sup> + 6 e<sup>−</sup> → 3 H<sub>2</sub>; <a title="Table of standard electrode potentials" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_standard_electrode_potentials"><span style="color:windowtext;">ΔE<sup>o</sup></span></a> = 0 <a title="Volt" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt"><span style="color:windowtext;">V</span></a>;</p>

<p>so that in the net reaction three equivalents of water are converted into one equivalent of ozone and three equivalents of <a title="Hydrogen" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen"><span style="color:windowtext;">hydrogen</span></a>. <a title="Oxygen" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen"><span style="color:windowtext;">Oxygen</span></a> formation is a competing reaction.</p>
<p>It can also be prepared by passing 10,000-20,000 <a title="Volts" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volts"><span style="color:windowtext;">volts</span></a> <a title="Direct current" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_current"><span style="color:windowtext;">DC</span></a> through dry O<sub>2</sub>. This can be done with an apparatus consisting of two concentric glass tubes sealed together at the top, with in and out spigots at the top and bottom of the outer tube. The inner core should have a length of metal foil inserted into it connected to one side of the power source. The other side of the power source should be connected to another piece of foil wrapped around the outer tube. Dry O<sub>2</sub> should be run through the tube in one spigot. As the O<sub>2</sub> is run through one spigot into the apparatus and 10,000-20,000 <a title="Volts" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volts"><span style="color:windowtext;">volts</span></a> <a title="Direct current" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_current"><span style="color:windowtext;">DC</span></a> are applied to the foil leads, <a title="Electricity" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electricity"><span style="color:windowtext;">electricity</span></a> will discharge between the dry dioxygen in the middle and form O<sub>3</sub> in O<sub>2</sub> out the other spigot. The reaction can be summarized as follows:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36pt;">3 O<sub>2</sub> — <em>electricity</em> → 2 O<sub>3</sub></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Nama : Darwin / 06</p>
<p>Kelas  : XII IPA</p>
<p>Novel Laskar Pelangi merupakan novel pertama karya Andrea Hirata, Laskar Pelangi merupakan sebuah karya Best Seller di pasaran Indonesia. Novel Laskar Pelangi memberi motivasi dan semangat yang mengkobar &#8211; kobar terhadap saya. Walaupun dalam Novel Laskar Pelangi terdapat sedikit bagian &#8211; bagian yang membesarkan atau tidak fakta, seperti penggunaan bahasa, apakah pada umur sd sampai smp sudah mengerti bahasa &#8211; bahasa latin dibenak mereka yang bahkan orang dewasa saja belum mengerti seperti apa yang ditulis di Laskar Pelangi yang dideskripsikan oleh ikal ( Andrea Hirata )  dan kepintaran Lintang yang tidak masuk akal, seorang anak sd sudah mengenal cincin newton yang baru akan dipelajari oleh&#8230;<span id="more-38"></span> anak kelas 3 SMU pada zaman sekarang, apalagi pada 30 sampai 40 tahun yang lalu saya percaya masih belum begitu kenal dengan ilmu pasti , mana mungkin seorang anak smp sudah mengerti ?</p>
<p>Namun, walaupun terdapat bagian &#8211; bagian yang dibesar &#8211; besarkan atau terlalu heboh. Buku Novel Laskar Pelangi telah memberikan saya, berbagai motivasi dan nilai &#8211; nilai moral yang sangat tinggi, seperti apa yang diajarkan oleh guru &#8211; guru sekolah Muhammadiyah bahwa setiap manusia harus saling mengasihi dan menghormati dan harus bertaat kepada orang tua serta bertaqwa kepada Tuhan. Semangat anak &#8211; anak sekolah Muhammadiyah yang walau harus menempuh jarak berpuluh &#8211; puluh kilometer hanya untuk pergi kesekolah dan tidaklah pernah sekalipun berpikir untuk bolos. Serta kekompakan murid &#8211; murid sekolah Muhammadiyah yaitu Lintang, Mahar, Borek / Samson, Kucai, Syahdan, Harun, Flo ( baru masuk ke sekolah Muhammadiyah setelah insiden bahwa Flo hilang dan ditemukan oleh Mahar ), Sahara, Akiong, Trapani dan Ikal ( Andrea Hirata ). Kesepuluh anak tersebut yang kemudian dinobatkan Ibu Mus sebagai Laskar Pelangi.</p>
<p>Buku novel tersebut menceritakan masa &#8211; masa pada saat masih sekola di sekolah Muhammadiyah dan apa yang terjadi setelah 12 tahun mereka meninggalkan sekolah Muhammadiyah. Novel tersebut mengandung sangat banyak hal &#8211; hal yang seharusnya ditiru oleh anak &#8211; anak zaman sekarang.</p>
<p>Novel Laskar Pelangi, novel yang pertama kali saya baca dan sangat mengesankan bagi saya serta sangat bermakna yang bisa memotivasi saya untuk lebih rajin dan menghargai apa yang telah saya miliki.</p>
<p>Mungkin hanya sekedar pendapat yang bisa saya utarakan tentang novel Laskar Pelangi karya Andrea Hirata ini.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p class="MsoNormal">Many of us still proud of many kind of cool windows desktop that provide by Windows Vista that already be counted as the Funtastic one… with many kind of functions that previous Microsoft XP that didn’t contained… But for some Gamers should better didn’t use any kind of Microsoft XP nor Vista, Why? Because that Microsoft will make your computer more slowpoke ( slow down )… And some kind of games didn’t<span id="more-36"></span> support Microsoft Vista,,,</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">If you just want a simple Software that consist word, excel, access, powerpoint, front page and etc… And you are also a Gamer that don’t want your computer be a slowpoke… I suggest you can use Linux, or just install open Office… That you can found in many place in websites to freely download them…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Why I sugges this two software?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Because there are Free of course… Better than you use Microsoft that you are copy it or buy it from street and not an orginal one…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">That will make u ashamed of the pirate one…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So we should start to be conscious to avoid copy or stole something that already protected by LaW, Even Our country Indonesia still didn’t so focus or concentrate of software case… but if We Can found a free and legal one… Why we still have to risk and feel guilty to use the old one?</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">LinuX and Open Office not only free…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">They have many advantage…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some of that:</p>
<ol style="margin-top:0;" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal">We neednt      risk to break HaKi Law, that we couldn’t afford to buy original one because      Expensive and We buy the copy version from street and benefits goes to them…</li>
<li class="MsoNormal">We neednt      be afraid when one day our computer is being formatted of some virus because      the FOSS can be installed over and over time…</li>
<li class="MsoNormal">FOSS and      Linux Being trusted of it security that many kind of virus can be easily detected      and cleaned without erase the data…</li>
<li class="MsoNormal">We Neednt      install antivirus if we use LinuX that already consist Security so we      neednt so exhausted thinking of antivirus will make us computer slow down…</li>
<li class="MsoNormal">If we      use the FOSS and LinuX and think it’s better than Microsoft, I think we      will introduce it to our other friends to use it too… so we can help other      to not let the people sell copy version or pirate software in street      because nobody will buy it, because FOSS and LinuX are free…</li>
</ol>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Maybe there are more information you can get from other site about FOSS or LinuX, but I hope my article will somehow help you more know the benefit of FOSS…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">I want to say thank you to The FOSS and LinuX company that already help our world technology improved…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And Thanx to you if u are reading my article^^</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p class="MsoNormal">Are you still use pirate software? I think you will say, “ of course. “ But… Are you proud of it? Do you satisfy by that kind of software?&#8230;</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I have some advice to all people in this world, if we want use free software or cheap one… why don’t we use FOSS ( Free Open Source Software ). This kind of software we can download from many kind of website’s…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you still think it’s so difficult or you kind of mess have to download first, and prefer to buy it from Cd store, with only Rp. <span id="more-35"></span>15.000,00 – 30.000,00 you can get a copy version of Microsoft office, Microsoft tools, or some software like that… Why don’t you try to use FOSS that not even waste you a pence. Just need your patience to download it, and help FOSS to share it to all over the world…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">By this chance I want to introduce some free software that Quite popular…:</p>
<p>1. <span class="newslink">OpenOffice Draw</span><br />
2. <span class="newslink">Dia</span><br />
3. <span class="newslink">Gimpshop</span><br />
4. <span class="newslink">InfraRecorder</span><br />
5. <span class="newslink">Cinelerra</span><br />
6. <span class="newslink">Quanta Plus</span><br />
7. <span class="newslink">Partition Image</span><br />
8. <span class="newslink">Avidemux</span><br />
9. <span class="newslink">Kivio</span><br />
10. <span class="newslink">Paint.NET, DLL</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With this facilities and of course free, why don’t we try it… if it’s not really suitable with your own style and prefer Microsoft office, you just can re-install it…</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Back to FOSS, with my own knowledge to web surfing… I found that many kin om IM that already provide you a program to let you chat ( Yahoo messenger, MsN, other IM ).</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I want to share some kind of this Provicer that can let you chat free and download the program…:</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">1. Morange</p>

<p>As a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_science" title="Formal science"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">formal science</span></a>, logic investigates and classifies the structure of statements and arguments, both through the study of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formal_system" title="Formal system"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">formal systems</span></a> of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inference" title="Inference"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">inference</span></a> and through the study of arguments in natural language. The field of logic ranges from core topics such as the study of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fallacies" title="Fallacies"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">fallacies</span></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox" title="Paradox"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">paradoxes</span></a>, to specialized analysis of reasoning using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Probability" title="Probability"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">probability</span></a> and to arguments involving <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Causality" title="Causality"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">causality</span></a>. Logic is also commonly used today in <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Argumentation_theory" title="Argumentation theory"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">argumentation theory</span></a>.</p>
<p>Traditionally, logic is studied as a branch of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy" title="Philosophy"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">philosophy</span></a>, one part of the classical trivium, which consisted of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammar" title="Grammar"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">grammar</span></a>, logic, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhetoric" title="Rhetoric"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">rhetoric</span></a>. Since the mid-nineteenth century <span>formal logic</span> has been studied in the context of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_mathematics" title="Foundations of mathematics"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">foundations of mathematics</span></a>, where it was often called <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_logic" title="Symbolic logic"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">symbolic logic</span></a>. In <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfred_North_Whitehead" title="Alfred North Whitehead"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Alfred North Whitehead</span></a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bertrand_Russell" title="Bertrand Russell"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Bertrand Russell</span></a> attempted to establish logic formally as the cornerstone of mathematics with the publication of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principia_Mathematica" title="Principia Mathematica"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Principia Mathematical</span></a>. However, except for the elementary part, the system of Principia is no longer much used, having been largely supplanted by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_theory" title="Set theory"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">set theory</span></a>. As the study of formal logic expanded, research no longer focused solely on foundational issues, and the study of several resulting areas of mathematics came to be called <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_logic" title="Mathematical logic"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">mathematical logic</span></a>. The development of formal logic and its implementation in computing machinery is the foundation of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_science" title="Computer science"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">computer science</span></a>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>In a modern world full with new technology beyond our imagination can help us improve our study and education only by browsing internet.</p>
<p>In a ‘socially mobile learning environment’, it is no longer sufficient to use online learning and teaching technologies simply for the delivery of content to<span id="more-30"></span> students. A ‘digital literacy’ exists where flexible and mobile technologies must be explored for collaborative and (co)creative purposes, as well as for the critical assessment and evaluation of information. This paper will focus on the educational possibilities of blogs, wikis and RSS feeds. Blogs and wikis are two new content development and management technologies that enable an interactive and intercreative engagement amongst students and between students and teachers. RSS is a technology for syndicating information such as the content of websites. These technologies enable desirable practices such as collaborative content creation, peer assessment, formative evaluation of student work, individual as well as group reflection on learning experiences, and up-to-date information regarding changes in collaborative spaces, and can be used in the development of authentic learning tasks. An overview of each technology will be presented with pragmatic suggestions for their incorporation into the student learning experience.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>The Pygmy Marmoset (Callithrix (Cebuella) pygmaea) is a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monkey" title="Monkey"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">monkey</span></a> native to the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainforest" title="Rainforest"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">rainforest</span></a> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canopy_%28forest%29" title="Canopy (forest)"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">canopies</span></a> of western <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazil" title="Brazil"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Brazil</span></a>, southeastern <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colombia" title="Colombia"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Colombia</span></a>, eastern <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecuador" title="Ecuador"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Ecuador</span></a>, and eastern <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peru" title="Peru"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Peru</span></a>. It is one of the smallest primates, and the smallest monkey, with its body length ranging from 14-16 cm (excluding the 15-20 cm tail). Males weigh around 140 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gram" title="Gram"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">g</span></a> (5 <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ounce" title="Ounce"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">ounces</span></a>), and females only 120 g (4.2 ounces).</p>
<p>Despite its name, the Pygmy Marmoset is somewhat different from the typical <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmoset" title="Marmoset"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">marmosets</span></a> classified in genus<span id="more-29"></span> <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callithrix" title="Callithrix"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Callithrix</span></a>. As such, it is accorded its own subgenus, which was formerly recognized as its own genus, <b>Cebuella</b>.</p>
<p>The Pygmy Marmoset has a tawny coat, and a ringed <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tail" title="Tail"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">tail</span></a> that can be as long as its body. Their claws are specially adapted for climbing trees, a trait unique to the species. They are <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omnivore" title="Omnivore"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">omnivorous</span></a>, feeding on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit" title="Fruit"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">fruit</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaf" title="Leaf"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">leaves</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insects" title="Insects"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">insects</span></a>, and sometimes even small <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reptile" title="Reptile"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">reptiles</span></a>. Their small weight allows them to reach the very highest leaves of a tree, and to exploit the otherwise little- used food sources there. Much of their diet, however, comes from tapping <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree" title="Tree"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">trees</span></a> for <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sap" title="Sap"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">sap</span></a>. Up to two-thirds of their time is spent gouging tree <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bark" title="Bark"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">bark</span></a> to reach the gummy sap. The Pygmy Marmoset has specialized incisors for gouging holes in bark. Unfortunately, because of its small size, and its swift movements, it is very hard to observe in the wild.</p>
<p>In captivity, the Pygmy Marmoset can live up to 11 years.</p>

This great length is attributed to <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_gigantism" title="Island gigantism"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">island gigantism</span></a>, as there are no carnivorous mammals to fill the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecological_niche" title="Ecological niche"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">niche</span></a> in the islands that they live on, and the Komodo dragon&#8217;s low metabolic rate. As a result of their great size, these lizards are <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apex_predator" title="Apex predator"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">apex predators</span></a>, dominating the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecosystem" title="Ecosystem"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">ecosystems</span></a> in which they live.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;">Komodo dragons were only discovered by Western <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science" title="Science"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">scientists</span></a> in 1910. Their large size and fearsome reputation makes them popular <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoo" title="Zoo"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">zoo</span></a> exhibits. In the wild their range has contracted due to human activities and they are listed as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vulnerable_species" title="Vulnerable species"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">vulnerable</span></a> by the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUCN" title="IUCN"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">IUCN</span></a>. They are protected under Indonesian law and a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_park" title="National park"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">national park</span></a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Komodo_National_Park" title="Komodo National Park"><span style="color:windowtext;text-decoration:none;">Komodo National Park</span></a>, was founded in order to protect them.</p>
