How to Manage Our School Waste


     Firstly, the waste must divide into organic waste and inorganic waste

A. Organic waste utilization
Utilization of organic waste, such as composting (composting) waste that can be changed easily decompose into compost is environmentally friendly.
In addition to environmentally friendly compost is also very easy in practice students in school and at home.
In addition to easily make compost the manufacture also cost-effective.
Purpose of making compost is to make students understand how to manage waste correctly Organic and Inorganic.
Excellent compost adds nutrients to the soil so that it can add fertility of soil, enhances the ability to retain water in the soil, improving the system of air spaces in the soil and enhance the holding capacity of the soil to provide plant nutrients on plant fertility.
In composting, there are several ways, namely ....
1. Compost making natural way to do this in a way to hoard junk plants gradually into the hole measures 1.5 x 1.5 x 1.5 meters.
Then layered with manure and sprinkle in a little ash and lime.
Later on it adds another layer of plant litter and animal waste in the cap and so on so be razed to the ground.
The landfill waste should be moist but not too wet in the period of 2-3 months.
Where waste is already shrunk to a tenth of its original size, then the waste is being composted manure.
2. Composting with the help of Microbes: Making compost is very easy with the help of microbes by fermenting organic waste such as animal manure / man, straw, rice husk, bran / bran smooth, grass, leaves, trash and other household
forth.
And commonly called Manure.
B. Inorganic waste utilization.
Garbage or waste that we produce every day, usually we throw away without us sorted into.
This is probably because they do not know or may not want to know that the waste can be sorted into a waste Organic and Inorganic that can be utilized into useful items.
Inorganic waste is waste that is not derived from living things.
Inorganic waste requires a long time can not be relegated even naturally.
Some of them Inorganic waste cans, plastic, styrofoam and other materials glassware.
One that we can do in Inorganic waste is recycling (Recycle).
Recycling is an attempt to process the item or items that are not in use in order to be utilized again.
Immediately, the process or waste Inorganic Waste, Inorganic Waste Here I describe into 4 parts:


1. Waste Plastic Waste plastics commonly used as wrapping goods.
Plastic is also commonly used as household furniture.
Advantages goods made of plastic that is not rusty and durable.
For example, my friends try to grave plastic garbage for several months, then dig some more and see the land cover can be sure the waste will remain intact.
One way is by recycling into useful goods again for sure.
Such example is used plastic buckets that can be recycled back into plastic spoons, trash, scoop and flower pots.
Of plastic food wrappers though again we can be a craft that purse, laptop bag, slippers, umbrellas and shopping bags.
Bottle bins can be utilized also be children's toys such as ship-calloused example, cars and so on.
2. Trash Metal waste or waste from metal such as iron, tin, aluminum and others can be found easily in the environment around us.
Trash cans of materials most commonly we find and the easiest to use and useful crafts.
As a simple example, namely the processing of a trash can drums, flower vases, key chains, piggy bank and gift box.
3.Glass Waste  or glass that is broken can be recycled back into the original goods or other items such as a new bottle, vase, souvenir eyes and other decorations that have artistic and economic value.
4.  Waste paper is easily destroyed and everything seems harmless like plastic.
But the name certainly cause problems if the waste on leave granted.
As an example of paper that littered the classroom will inevitably lead to a sense of discomfort in the learning process. As the processing of waste paper can be utilized to ornament boxes, book covers, photo frames, pencil and others.
Thank you for your attention.

Playoffs


NBA Playoffs begin in late April, with eight teams in each conference going for the Championship. The three division winners, along with the team with the next best record from the conference are given the top four seeds. The next four teams in terms of record are given the lower four seeds.
Having a higher seed offers several advantages. Since the first seed begins the playoffs playing against the eighth seed, the second seed plays the seventh seed, the third seed plays the sixth seed, and the fourth seed plays the fifth seed, having a higher seed means a team faces a weaker team in the first round. The team in each series with the better record has home court advantage, including the First Round. This means that, for example, if the team who receives the 5 seed has a better record than the team with the 4 seed (by virtue of a divisional championship), the 5 seed would have home court advantage, even though the other team has a higher seed. Therefore, the team with the best regular season record in the league is guaranteed home court advantage in every series it plays. For example, in 2006, the Denver Nuggets won 44 games and captured the Northwest Division and the #3 seed. Their opponent was the #6 seed Los Angeles Clippers, who won 47 games and finished second in the Pacific Division. Although Denver won its much weaker division, the Clippers had home-court advantage and won the series in 5.
The playoffs follow a tournament format. Each team plays an opponent in a best-of-seven series, with the first team to win four games advancing into the next round, while the other team is eliminated from the playoffs. In the next round, the successful team plays against another advancing team of the same conference. All but one team in each conference are eliminated from the playoffs. Since the NBA does not re-seed teams, the playoff bracket in each conference uses a traditional design, with the winner of the series matching the 1st and 8th seeded teams playing the winner of the series matching the 4th and 5th seeded teams, and the winner of the series matching the 2nd and 7th seeded teams playing the winner of the series matching the 3rd and 6th seeded teams. In every round except the NBA Finals, the best-of-7 series follows a 2–2–1–1–1 home-court pattern, meaning that one team will have home court in games 1, 2, 5, and 7, while the other plays at home in games 3, 4, and 6. For the NBA Finals, the series follows a 2–3–2 pattern, meaning that one team will have home court in games 1, 2, 6, and 7, while the other plays at home in games 3, 4, and 5. The 2–3–2 pattern has been in place since 1985.
The final playoff round, a best-of-seven series between the victors of both conferences, is known as the NBA Finals, and is held annually in June. The victor in the NBA Finals wins the Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy. Each player and major contributor—including coaches and the general manager—on the winning team receive a championship ring. In addition, the league awards the Bill Russell NBA Finals Most Valuable Player Award to the best performing player of the series.
On August 2, 2006, the NBA announced the new playoff format. The new format takes the three division winners and the second-place team with the best record and rank them 1–4 by record. The other 4 slots are filled by best record other than those other 4 teams.[41] Previously, the top three seeds went to the division winners.

Professional Basketball



Ad from The Liberator magazine promoting an exhibition in Harlem, March 1922. Drawing by Hugo Gellert
In 1920s, there were hundreds of men's professional basketball teams in towns and cities all over the United States, and little organization of the professional game.BarnstormingOriginal Celtics the New York Renaissance Five ("Rens") and the (still existing) Harlem Globetrotters played up to two hundred games a year on their national tours.
In 1946, the Basketball Association of America (BAA) was formed. The first game was played in Toronto, Ontario, Canada between the Toronto Huskies and New York Knickerbockers on November 1, 1946. Three seasons later, in 1949, the BAA merged with the National Basketball League to form the National Basketball Association (NBA). An upstart organization, the American Basketball Association, emerged in 1967 and briefly threatened the NBA's dominance until the ABA-NBA merger in 1976. Today the NBA is the top professional basketball league in the world in terms of popularity, salaries, talent, and level of competition.

There are some tehnics used by professional basket ball players :
Fade away is a kind of tehnic which pull our body back ward while shooting the ball, that would make the defender can’t stop the ball easily, this is rather difficult to be performed by beginers. If our balance is not well controled,we could fall down.
Hook shoot is a kind of tehnic which is an effective movement when a player is guarded by a taller player. It is performed by shooting from a side by using only one hand. So the distance between two player could be farther.
This technic requires high jump and a precise shoot, which is performed by jumping and shooting a wild shoot that difficult to be blocked.

This movement is done by dribling and passing (bouncing) the ball from left hand to the right hand, or the other ways. And some times it is modified by bouncing it trough the legs space (performed by many international players) or from behind the legs.

Slamdunk is one of the most popular technic, actually it is a simple movement, we just need to enter the ball directly to the ring using our hand. Although it looks easy, but to someone who is only 171 cm tall, it is almost impossible to be done, because less of jump’s hight.
