Membuat Label Undangan Sendiri (dengan Tom & Jerry Label)

Hari pernikahan sudah tinggal menghitung hari. Undangan yang dipesan di percetakan sudah jadi. Tetapi kadang-kadang masih ada beberapa orang yang masih bingung bagaimana cara untuk membuat label undangan yang nantinya akan ditempel di amplop undangan. Dulu sih saya pernah lihat temen saya ngeprint label semacam itu dengan sebelumnya membuat templatenya dengan Ms word secara manual (dengan membuat beberapa text box kemudian disesuaikan dengan ukuran kertasnya). Saya pikir, masa tidak ada cara lain sih.

Akhirnya setelah saya coba-coba sendiri, dengan memakai software pengolah kata MS Word saya bisa membuat Label undangan sendiri.
Label yang saya gunakan adalah merk “Tom&Jerry”.

Dibawah ini saya sertakan ukuran Label pada Tom&Jerry.



Berikut ini, saya tuliskan petunjuk step by step cara membuatnya:
1. Buka program MS Word.
2. Klik menu bar di: File>New
3. Klik Tools>Letters and Mailings>Envelopes and Labels
4.Beri tanda di “Radio Button” yang judulnya “Full page of the same label“



5. Klik “Option“
6. Abis itu akan muncul dialog box alias kotak dialog yang judulnya “Label options“,



7. Pilih di “Label Products” pilihan yang namanya “Other/Custom“
8. Lalu pilih “AE (3×5) – Address” di kolom Product Number
9. Terus turun ke bawah lagi, lihat sebuah tombol yang bernama “New Label“, klik tombol itu.
10. Akan muncul lagi kotak dialog seperti ini:




11. Nah kasih nama labelnya terserah kalian, di tutorial ini kasih nama aja “Label” di kolom Label Name
12. Sekarang kita ambil contoh label yang akan kita gunakan adalah label Tom & Jerry nomer 103. Sekarang ambil selembar label dan sebuah mistar/penggaris. Ukurlah Side margin, horisontal pitch dan lain-lain sehingga hasilnya sama seperti gambar di bawah ini.



13. Setelah itu klik OK
14. Lalu Klik “OK” lagi di dialog box Label Options.
15. Kemudian di dialog box Envelop and Labels (seperti di nomer 4) klik “New Documents“
16. Hasilnya akan seperti ini:



17. Itu belum selesai, karena ukuran kertasnya belum sesuai dengan ukuran kertas kuningnya Tom & Jerry. Karena itu kita samakan ukurannya dengan, Klik menu File>Page setup. Kemudian ukur lagi dengan mistar ukuran lebar dan tinggi kertas kuningnya. Ukurannya adalah lebar 20,5cm, tinggi 16,5cm. Masukkan data tersebut ke ukuran kertasnya. Perhatikan baik2 ya, paper sizenya adalah “Custom” setelah itu baru masukkan angkanya. Setelah itu Klik OK



18. Hasilnya, kita akan mempunyai ukuran yang pas dengan label Tom & Jerry no. 103. Tapi jangan lupa untuk menyimpan format ini ke dalam bentuk MS Word Template. Klik File>Save As>Document Template. Simpan.




19. Selesai deh pekerjaan kita.
Lain kali saat kita membutuhkannya kita tinggal membuat dokumen baru dengan Template Label yang sudah kita buat. Mencari templatenya ada di gambar berikut ini.



Nah, sudah berhasil dengan nomor 103, ingin membuat dengan seri lain? Ulangi saja langkah tadi, dan di langkah nomor 11 silahkan ukur sesuai dengan seri kertas Tom & Jerry yang kamu pakai. Di langkah terakhir, save sebagai Document Template dengan nama yang berbeda, misalnya Label103, Label121 dan sebagainya. Oh iya, file Documen Template MS Word, memiliki file extension *.dot.

Sebagai tambahan, template yang sudah kita buat bisa dicopy ke flashdisk atau ke CDROM atau diupload ke website pribadi kamu buat backup yang bisa dibawa atau diakses dimana2. Jadi kamu nggak perlu lagi mengulangi langkah2 ini setiap saat. Cukup buka file template itu aja. Yang biasanya dipakai untuk label stiker ukurannya: 103 dan 121.
Untuk download label template yang lain bisa langsung ke Tom & Jerry, klik aja:

Bahayanya Jadi Perokok Pasif

PERNAHKAH ketika sedang naik bus kota sembari menikmati
keindahan kota, tiba-tiba seseorang di sebelah kita dengan seenaknya menyalakan rokok tanpa mempedulikan bahwa asapnya membuat sesama penumpang bus lain merasa sesak napas?
Para perokok sebaiknya berpikir lebih bijak lagi dalam merokok. Berdasarkan penelitian Agricultural and Food Chemistry yang diterbitkan American Chemical Society tahun 2008, zat kimia yang digunakan sebagai aroma pada rokok bila diisap sangat berbahaya bagi tubuh.Tentunya bisa berdampak buruk, tidak hanya bagi kondisi kesehatan perokok, tetapi juga pada kondisi kesehatan orang lain yang ada di sekitar perokok (pasif). Zat kimia yang disebut alkenylbenzenes itu mengandung racun. Riset dengan mengambil 8 sampel rokok tembakau dari berbagai merek itu, menggunakan metode baru, yaitu mendeteksi dan menganalisis asap rokok.

Sebelumnya, tidak ada satu metode yang bisa secara mudah dan tepat mengukur kandungan zat penyedap itu dalam sebatang rokok. Risiko kanker dan kerusakan saluran pernapasan muncul, bila secara terus-menerus, dalam waktu yang lama, menghirup zat alkenylbenzenes secara langsung ataupun tidak.

Memang, alkenylbenzenes itu aman bagi tubuh manusia. Di dalam tubuh, zat itu akan dinetralisir oleh hati. Namun, bila diisap (misalnya dengan menghirup asap rokok), zat langsung masuk saluran pernapasan dan menyebar ke seluruh tubuh manusia sebelum hati mampu menetralisirnya.

Berdasarkan riset The National Academy of Science pada semua jenis rokok, termasuk rokok filter, non-filter dan methol, terbukti alkenylbenzenes ditemukan dalam setiap jenis rokok. Selain alkenylbenzenes yang digunakan sebagai aroma pada rokok, pembakaran rokok adalah salah satu pembakaran tidak sempurna yang menghasilkan gas CO (karbon monoksida) yang terdapat dalam asap rokok.
Hal ini tentunya dapat membahayakan kesehatan perokok pasif yang secara tidak langsung ikut menghirup asap rokok tersebut. Apa yang terjadi saat CO memasuki tubuh kita? CO mulai menggantikan posisi
O2 di darah, sehingga sel-sel tubuh mulai kekurangan oksigen.

Normalnya, oksigen yang kita butuhkan dari udara yang kita hirp ialah 21 persen, dengan kadar nitrogen 78 persen. Sisanya 1 persen berupa gas-as lain. Gejala kekurangan oksigen di antaranya adalah kita mulai merasa sesak napas. Kemudian bisa diikuti pusing, bahkan pingsan. Jika keracunan CO, salah satu indikasinya, tubuh membiru.

Risiko kesehatan yang harus ditanggung perokok pasif lebih berbahaya dibandingkan perokok itu sendiri.

Di negara kita, banyak ditemukan pembagian antara Smoking Area dengan Non-Smoking Area pada beberapa fasilitas umum seperti pesawat terbang, terminal atau stasiun. Sselain itu, pada beberapa daerah seperti DKI Jakarta sudah mengeluarkan perda tentang larangan merokok di tempat umum.
Namun, demi menghargai orang lain yang tak merokok, Pemerintah perlu membuat peraturan yang jelas dalam bentuk Undang-Undang (UU) yang mengatur tentang ketentuan larangan merokok di tempat umum.

Should smoking be banned in public places?

The issue of whether smoking in public places should be banned has been raging for the past year in Indonesia since the government proposed the plan of smoking regulation. There are the pros and cons argument about the regulation. Each of them has their own reason.As a non-smoker I couldn’t agree more with this regulation. I agree with the opinion that the smoke should be far removed from communal area as possible. Yes, I don’t smoke as well as allergic to smoke. Smoking should be banned period everywhere. It is a disgusting habit. It makes you stink, have yellow teeth plus cigarettes cost too much. Not only do you stink, have yellow teeth, and your health is affected but you also offend others that do not smoke. Some of us have asthma and have a hard time breathing this wonderful valley air. Then you add cigarette smoke on top of it. I will probably die first from second hand smoke.
In my view, smokers usually don’t care about the other. They will be very insensitive. Smokers don’t want to put their cigarette out when someone asking for them. They said that they have a freedom to smoke; however, they didn’t realize that every people have a rights to breath in no pollution air too. You can imagine some kind of public transportation which is already full by the passengers, is going to be seemed like more fully because of cigarette smoke. People have different condition of their lung. Asthmatic people as well as a baby are easier to be poisoned by the nicotine, besides they are going to suffer. The other reason is smoke makes the environment dirty. Smokers usually don’t throw cigarette butts into the right place. As a result, we can find so many cigarette cases also many rests of cigarettes on the road, on the yard and other communal areas. Some people said that ban of smoking in public places threatened the employees of the cigarette industries. In my opinion, the worker should not worry about that as the regulation won’t reduce the number of selling products of cigarette industries. It might be decrease just a low percentage. As a result, they won’t lose their works.
On the other hand, smokers say that ban of smoking in public places break the human freedom. They have an opinion, the protesters who are trying to enforce a ban smoking in public forgetting the concept of freedom of choice. For example, people have their own way to relax, such as go to the pub or café. Furthermore, relaxation is achieved by having a few drinks, having a chat with the other and for some people this includes the activity of smoking. From a business point of view enforcing a ban on smoking in public areas such as pubs, restaurants or bars would decrease many customers. Smokers feel that the ban is very cruel. They should go out onto the yard to smoke a cigarette during a meal out with friends or family. It isn’t a nice experience.
Smokers say its their freedom to smoke while its non smokers freedom not too as well but there are non smokers who are dying because of the smokers a thing call secondhand smoke that is even worst than just smoking. A non smoker is not taking away from your freedom but trying to have their as well as your because they chose not to smoke so they don't die of smoke related diseases but with you smoking in the same area they are in public area where everyone pays you are taking away years of their lives. Smokers say that non smokers are being selfish but in fact it’s the smoker who doesn't care if others don't smoke and smoke in front of the non smoker and laughter when the non smoke leaves. Everyone has the right to do what they want but if everyone did then there would be more crimes so there are laws passed to keep people from making a dangerous decision that will hurt another person. This goes for smoking because it does hurt others as much or more than the actually smoker. So every time a smoker smoke around someone else just remember you are killing that person standing next to you as well as yourself just let you know. I have a lot of friends that are smokers and they will not smoke around me to show that they respect me and my chose on not smoking.
Well, smokers are addicted to nicotine and they need it regularly. We can’t change them wanting to smoke and although they should be considerate about smoking around others we should also forces ourselves to tolerate to a certain level of their habit. It’s time for people to realize and to know the dangers of smoke and also passive smoking. Consequently, smoke in public areas should be banned….!!!!
