Aneh... benar-benar aneh... tampaknya banyak orang membuat situs jadi bertujuan untuk memasang iklan, aku juga jadi penasaran, memangnya kenapa? Tapi tak lama kemudian kuketahui, Google memang memberikan duit bagi pemilik situs kalau ada orang yang mengeklik iklan yang dipasang di situs tersebut. (Dan apa hubungannya dengan mesothelioma?)

Weird... it's really weird... seemed that a lot of people made a web site with a purpose of placing ads. I was curious too, why was that? But not long after that I knew, Google actually gives money to the site owner if a visitor clicks on the ads that is placed in the site. (And what is the relation with mesothelioma?)

Beberapa lama kemudian, aku menerima berita, katanya ada orang yang mendapat sepuluh ribu sampai lima belas ribu sebulan gara-gara memasang iklan di blognya. Katanya yang penting adalah memasukkan kata-kata kunci tertentu, dimana pemasang iklan mau membayar mahal untuk memperebutkan tempat itu. Ini karena Google menaruh iklan berdasarkan isi situs tempat iklan itu dipasang.

Sometime later, I received a news, that said that there was a person receiving ten thousand to fifteen thousand dollars in a month by placing ads on his blog. He said that the important thing was including a special keywords, where the person who places the ad wills to pay a lot of money to bid for an ad place. This is because Google places ads based on the content of the site where the ads are published.

Aku pun penasaran, apa sih kata-kata tersebut? Katanya sih ada yang sampai seratus dolar sekali klik. Ah, tapi aku tak begitu percaya, kalau sampai beberapa dolar sih masih masuk akal. Lalu aku cari beberapa situs tentang kata kunci apa yang menghasilkan duit paling banyak.

And I was curious again, what are the keywords? It was said that some can produce up to a hundred dollar with a single click. "Ah, I don't believe it, if it were a few dollar, it's possible." Nevertheless I searched some sites for the words that can produce the most money.

Nah, dari hasil pencarian yang cukup aneh karena aku mendapatkan lebih banyak iklan daripada informasi yang sesungguhnya, tampaknya ada satu kata yang belum pernah kudengar tapi katanya mahal harga iklannya: mesothelioma (bahkan aku perlu kopi-paste untuk menulisnya). Apa sih mesothelioma itu?

And then, from the strange search result that I got more ads that the real information, seemed there is a word that I have never heard it before but was said that the price is high: mesothelioma (I even need to copy-and-paste to type it). What is mesothelioma really?

Mesothelioma adalah salah satu jenis kanker yang langka, dimana sel-sel yang telah bermutasi menyeliputi dada, lubang di tulang perut, atau di garisan pada hati. Tanda-tandanya adalah pemampatan usus, penurunan berat badan, anemia, demam, pembesaran perut, dan sebagainya. Katanya, dalam 6 bulan sejak kena ini orangnya akan meninggal!

Mesothelioma is a kind of cancer that is rare, where the malignant cells covers the chest, abdominal cavity or the lining around the heart. The symptoms are bowel obstruction, weight loss, anemia, fever, abdominal swelling, and so on. It is said, that in six months since someone gets mesothelioma, he or she dies!

Orang yang kena mesothelioma dilaporkan kebanyakan disebabkan karena menghirup a s b e s t o s (aku tambahkan spasi biar Anda ingat ini bahan bahaya!) tanpa disadari, yaitu bahan anti-terbakar yang kadang terdapat dalam peralatan rumah tangga dan bahan-bahan konstruksi bangunan. Katanya, hanya dengan menghirupnya selama sebulan, dalam 30 tahun lebih setelahnya, mereka akan terkena mesothelioma. Jadi efeknya tak bisa terlihat dengan cepat.

People who get mesothelioma is reported to be mainly caused by inhaling a s b e s t o s (I added spaces to let you know that this is dangerous) involuntary, which is a fire-resistant material that is used in everyday home tools and as a material for building constructions. It is said, that just by inhaling it for a month, in 30 years or more after it, they will get mesothelioma. So the effect cannot be seen quickly.

Sayangnya kalau membicarakan mesothelioma terus akan banyak membicarakan biologi, yaitu hal yang tidak kusukai sampai sekarang. Mungkin akan lebih menarik kalau dibahas sedikit bersinggungan dengan hukum dan pengacara dan tuntutan dan sebagainya yang mungkin sama tidak menariknya.

Unfortunately if I talk about mesothelioma continuously, I will be talking about biology topic a lot, which I have never been liking it until now. Maybe it will be more interesting if the discussion is relating to law and lawyers and suing and so on that may not be more interesting.

Begini... karena mesothelioma biasanya disebabkan penghirupan a s b e s t o s, maka tentu saja yang sakit bisa menuntut perusahaan tempat dia bekerja dulu kalau perusahaan itu memakai itu dalam produksinya. Atau, kalau disebabkan pemakaian piring, gelas, atau apapun yang ternyata mengandung itu, produsennya bisa dituntut juga. Dan katanya tuntutannya bisa berjuta-juta dolar Amerika. Dan masalah tuntut-menuntut ini sangat tak biasa menurutku, tapi tampaknya Amerika Serikat memang cukup biasa dengan hal-hal begini. (Seseorang mengatakan ada yang menuntut perusahaan pembuat microwave karena saat dia mengeringkan kucing dengan microwave, kucingnya mati.)

It's like this... because mesothelioma is usually caused by inhaling a s b e s t o s, so of course the sick one can sue the company where he was working on if the company was using it in its production. Or, if it is being caused by the use of plates, glasses, or anything that evidently contains it, their producer could be prosecuted also. And it is said that the lawsuit could be millions of United States dollars. And this topic of lawsuits and lawyers etc for me is very uncommon. but apparently the United States are quite normal with matters like this. (Someone said there was somebody called a lawyer and prosecuted a manufacturer of microwaves because when she drained her cat with the microwave, her cat died.)

Lalu ada apa dengan masalah pengacara ini? Menurut sumber-sumber, pengacara di sana juga melayani kliennya dengan pelayanan khusus, kalau tak menang dalam pengadilan, tak usah bayar. Dan kalau menang, pengacara bisa mendapatkan ratusan ribu dolar. Karena itu mereka mau membayar mahal untuk memasang iklan.

So what is special about the lawyers? According to sources, the lawyers there also served their clients with a special service, if they do not win in the court, the clients do not need to pay. And if they win, the lawyers can get few hundred thousand dollars. Because of that they are willing to pay an expensive amount to put the ads.

Andai saja Anda bisa mendapatkan satu juta dolar dengan menuntut kalau anda terkena mesothelioma. Pilih mana, sehat atau sejuta dolar?

Imagine that you were able to get a million dollars by suing if you got mesothelioma. Which one would you choose, being healthy or getting a million dollars?
