10 Kegunaan Lain dari Sabun Cair

Selain digunakan untuk mencuci piring dan wajan dari noda minyak yang membandel, sabun cair juga dapat digunakan untuk hal-hal di bawah ini:

Menghilangkan noda minyak yang melekat di pakaian Teteskan sedikit sabun cair di atas noda yang melekat di pakaian Anda. Kemudian gosok dan usap dengan air. Teknik ini juga bisa dilakukan pada kain wool maupun kain sutra.

Membersihkan lantai dapur dan kamar mandi Tambahkan dua sendok makan sabun cair ke dalam seember air hangat. Campuran ini bisa digunakan untuk membersihkan lantai vinyl maupun lantai keramik. Hindari penggunaan larutan ini untuk lantai kayu.

Membersihkan meja dan kursi di teras Tambahkan sabun cair ke dalam seember air. Usap furnitur di teras Anda dengan larutan ini. Kemudian bilas dengan semprotan air.

Mengkilapkan kembali perhiasan Gunakan sikat gigi bekas yang halus untuk membersihkan perhiasan dari noda membandel.

Mencuci sisir dan sikat rambut

Mencuci pakaian yang tidak bisa dicuci dengan mesin Secara kimia, sabun cuci piring cair lebih bersahabat terhadap pakaian Anda dibanding sabun deterjen.

Perangkap lalat Tuang tiga tetes sabun cair ke dalam larutan vinegar. Campuran ini bisa mengundang lalat dan memerangkapinya.

Membersihkan noda di karpet Rendam kain bersih ke dalam larutan yang berisi campuran sabun cair dan air hangat. Kemudian gosok noda di karpet dengan kain tersebut. Ulangi sampai noda hilang. Lalu pakai spons untuk menyerap sisa-sisa air yang masih tertinggal di karpet. Terakhir, usap dengan kain kering hingga karpet benar-benar kering.

Membersihkan lemari dapur Masukan larutan sabun cair dan air ke dalam botol spray. Semprot lemari dapur anda. Kemudian usap dengan kain hingga kering.

Menghilangkan noda oli di garasi Tuang baking soda di atas noda oli yang membandel. Kemudian tuang sabun cair ke lokasi noda. Gosok dengan sikat dan tunggu beberapa jam. Ulangi sampai noda hilang.

Bienvenidos! a SmartPhone Ranking

Con el veloz avance de la tecnología, a diario se superan lo que pensábamos era nuestro mejor jugador en el campo de los teléfonos inteligentes. A simple vista es lo que le ha sucedido al iPhone 4 y 4S, que aunque su configuracion de hardware es buena, hoy en dia ya no es la mejor, cosa que indudablemente igualara o superara como es de costumbre. a los demas telefonos del mercado con la llegada del iPhone 5, esperemos que la usencia de Steve Jobs no cambie con los lineamentos de la empresa en este aspecto.

  En nuestro blog, como su nombre lo dice “SmartPhone Ranking” se evaluaran, compararan y clasificaran los teléfonos mas representativos del mercado, teniendo en cuenta aspectos como usabilidad, hardware(procesadores, resolución de pantalla, RAM, almacenamiento, conectividad), grado de innovación, fotografía, sistema operativo, y compatibilidad con el entorno. Con el fin de facilitar la elección del teléfono mas apropiado para cada quien de acuerdo a sus necesidades o preferencias.

(My) Best Places to Read (and sometimes write)

This is a list of my favourite places to read and I also write in all of these places... I know that everyone has their own special place and that not everyone will agree with my choices. If you've got a place of your own then I invite you tell us what this place is! You can add a picture or whatever, be creative! And remember that I accept submissions of your own lists! So just hit me up (the submit button is up top). 

Anyway, let's get this top ten list on the road (first of many, I hope). 

10. In front of a locker at school: I've long graduated high-school, but I remember I used to find it refreshing to have a book in such a hectic environment. While everyone was jostling each other around, trying to meet up with friends, I found pleasure in sitting by myself and enjoying a good book.

9. Break room at work: Despite the fact that there are people out there who don't understand that they shouldn't talk to you while you're reading, the break room is sometimes a surprisingly nice oasis for reading. Especially if you catch the break hour (or whatever time is allotted to you) by yourself. In this increasingly work-influenced society, we need to create our own reading zones out of the most unexpected places.

8. Patio or Backyard: Note: This usually works best in warmer temperatures... unless you have a heated space similar to the mentioned spots. What could possibly be more relaxing than hearing the sounds of life and seeing all the beauty of the world while enveloped in the loveliness of a book? 

7. A secluded hallway, or any places that aren't frequented by large multitudes of people: I find that when I'm surrounded by people I tend to pay less attention to what I am reading. This is especially true if you tend to have a short attention span. Try to stay away from large hordes of people if you want to read in public if you suffer from short-attention-spans because not only is the movement distracting, but the cacophony of chatter leaves you with only fifty-percent of your full attention.

6.  A lounge chair at your school/campus: I used to do this all the time. I would have a few hours to kill before my next class, so I'd bring a good book along with me and some coffee. If you are thinking, "But I'm like the person from number 7! I can barely focus if too many people are around me!" I understand, especially since I know from experience that these seating areas tend to become the centre of activity during the afternoon when more people are killing time. The solution is perhaps a lot simpler than you would think. Just pop your earphones/headphones on and let the music zone you out of your immediate surroundings. If music is too distracting for you, just don't turn on your music (this works best with noise cancelling headphones/earphones).

5. On your couch: Turn off that T.V. because it will distract the hell out of you. Turn on a lamp and sit back and enjoy your book! This is a good choice for those who like to read on their spare time in between jobs and school, and for those who don't live with a book attached to their hands at all times.

4. The bus/train/subway/waiting for any of these: When I'm not dead-tired from school or work, I love reading en route to school/work/ or wherever I am heading. It is relaxing to know that while everyone is going somewhere, I am already somewhere else in my book. Plus, I surprisingly get a lot read. Unless it is super busy, these modes of travel are usually quiet since people mainly keep to themselves if they are travelling alone and a lot of others are listening to their MP3 players. 

3. The dining room table: I know how this sounds, but think about it. Haven't you ever wondered what it would be like to escape the pointless babble of parents or siblings during dinner? Though not popular with my mom, I don't really care. I always have a book with me and I've learned through years of reading that when you're busy you take every opportunity possible to read. So, with a plate full of food, I join my mom and step-dad at the table and bring a book along. While solemnly picking at my food, I begin the task of reading whatever book I've invited to dinner on that night. So, not only am I happily fed in my stomach, but also I am fed in thought. Multi-tasking at its best!

2. A coffee shop or bookstore: I am actually writing this at the Second Cup on my campus... which is a reprieve from the usual school work that I read at this very table. Use the technique posted on number 6 if large crowds distract you. Avoid the windows that usually host the individual high chairs and tables if you have a tendency to look outside or people watch. Usually a nice corner, booth, or individual table by one of the walls is best. You can also enjoy a nice cup of Joe while nibbling on a muffin and the creative workings of the author you're reading. 

1. Bed: I'm one of those people that gets lost in the pages of a book no matter where I am, but the best place is my bed. Not only is it comfortable, but it is private (unless you are married or in a situation where your boyfriend/girlfriend stays over on occasion). I can laugh, cry, and get angry all by myself without the curious glances of passers-by. Morning, afternoon, night; it doesn't matter when, your bed will always be a comfortable home for any curious-mind. 

If you guys enjoyed this list, then feel free to submit your own. I will read through them and post them if they follow the guidelines I've set. Don't be shy! Everyone has their own places to read, which one is yours?
