Cat, who does not know about this adorable animal? You must know about this furry creature, don't you? Yeah.. This creature can be found anywhere and actually humans keep them as a pet in the house. 

Cat or Felis Silvestris Catus is a small, furry, domesticated and carnivorous mammals. It is often called the house cat when kept as an indoor pet, or simply the cat when there is no need to distinguish it from other felids and felines. Felidae is the biological family of the cats; a member of this family is called a felid. The most familiar felid is the domestic cat, which first became associated with humans about 10.000 years ago. Felinae is a subfamily of the family Felidae, which include the genera and species listed below. Most are small to medium-sized cats, although the group does include some larger animals, such as the cougar and cheetah.

Cats are often valued by humans for comapanionship and their ability to hunt vermin, mouses and household pests. Cats are similiar in anatomy to the other felids, with strong, flexible bodies, quick reflexes, sharp retractable claws, and teeth adapted tokilling small prey. Cats can hear sounds too faint or too high in frequency for human ears, such as those made by mice and other small game. They can see in near darkness. Like most other mammals, cats have poorer color vision and a better sense of smell than humans have.

Despite being solitary hunters, cats are a social species, and cat communication includes the use of a variety of vocalizations (meowing, purring, trilling, hissing, growling and grunting) as well as cat pheromones and types of cat-specific body language.

Cat gestation period is abut 63 days. Kittens born in deaf and blind condition. Their eyes really open at the age of 8 - 10 days. Cat gets sexual maturity at the age of 10 - 15 months.

Economic Value Added

Hallo readers, today I want to give you a material reading about ECONOMIC VALUE ADDED or we can called it “EVA”.  Anyone know about EVA? Let me explain you something about EVA J

According Amin Widjaja Tunggal (2008), Economic Value Added (EVA) is a financial management systeml to measure economic profit in a company, which states that welfare can only be created if the company is capable to fulfill all operating costs and capital costs.

The Economic Value Added concept was first introduced by G. Bennet Steward, III, Managing Partner from Stern Steward & Co in his book “The Quest For Value” (Harper Business, 1991). The EVA concept became financial management system. According to the Economist magazine (2 August 1997) more than 300 companies in the world had adopted this system that based from EVA (Economic Value Added). These companies for example such as Coca cola, Quaker Oats, Boise Cascade, Briggs & Stratton, Lafarge, Siemens, Tate & Lyle, Telecome New Zealand, Telstra, Monsanto, SPX, Herman Miller, JC penney, and US Portal Services (Joel M. Stern, 2001, page 15-16).

Economic Value Added (EVA) is profits that left after reduced by cost of capital which invested to produce that profits. EVA is a benchmark value-based financial performance. EVA is a brenchmark which explain the absolute amount from shareholder value that created in a given period, actually for one year. EVA provide a good brenchmark of the value added by the company to shareholders. Therefore, if manager focus on Economic Value Added, then it will help ensure that they operate in a consistent way to maximize shareholder value.

Economic Value Added is indicator of value created from an investment. Economic Value Added Positive if the result of return higher than rate of return that investor wanted it, which means company have maximize their company’s value or indicate crating value. Whereas Economic Value Added  indicate negative value, signify that company’s value is reduce so that the rate of return resulting lower than rate of return desired by investor, which means the company not success create the value for capital’s owner or indicate destroying value.

Then the correct sentence is, If motorist do not observe the traffic regulations, they will be stopped, ticketed, and fined.

7.      Fred, who usually conducts the choir rehearseals, did not show up last night because he had an accident on his way to the practice.

This sentence must be used the past perfect tense, because the action has already happened.

8.      A short time before her operation last month, Mrs. Carlyle dreams of her daughter who lives overseas.

Because the action already happened in the past, then the sentence must be past tense. So, the dreams must be change to the dreamed.

Kota Tua is a small area in Jakarta, Indonesia. It also known as Old Jakarta and Old Batavia. It spans 1.3 square kilomteres of North Jakarta and West Jakarta. This area is one of many place that will be destination by tourists. Around the area, there are museums such as Museum of Bank Indonesia, Museum Fatahilah/Museum Jakarta, Museum Wayang etc.. you can get information about Old Jakarta in here.

Okay, I will share my traveling with my mom.. start from our house located at Pisangan Lama, East Jakarta Rawamangun, we took Traditional Transportation or we called it "angkot" 02 toward to Jatinegara Station..
from Jatinegara station, we bought two Comuterline tickets destination Jakarta Kota, it prices Rp 7.500/ticket
after we arrived at Jakarta Kota Station, we walked to our first destination, Bank Indonesia Museum.. you can get information about Museum of Bank Indonesia in here. After we visit Museum of Bank Indonesia, we go to the next destination, Museum Fatahilah or it also known as Museum of History Jakarta.

The museum is located in west side of Fatahilah Square, near Jakarta History Museum and Fine Art and Ceramic Museum. Well, you can get information about Wayang Museum in here. In this Museum, I interested to the Jan Pieterszoon Coen's Statue which mark his grave.. yes, there are a grave in the Wayang Museum, and not just that, there are more beautiful statue in this wayang museum.. but it's very sadness to see that many people who don't know about this information :(
