indentured –> mengangkat menjadi (murid/pegawai)
servitude –> perbudakan, kerja paksa

182. wiggling –> menggeliat, bergoyang-goyang
We have excellent views above and below the galactic disk as well as away from the galactic center, gotta mention this again because it is so important.

207. innate –> lahiriah, pembawaan sejak lahir, asli
have you ever wondered to yourself why it is easier to get stuff done in the morning rather than in the evening with a stomach full of pasta bake? well, the answer to that is willpower.

218. ponder –> merenung, memikirkan, mempertimbangkan
Nolito and Alvaro Morata enhanced their chances of a place in Vicente del Bosque’s frontline with a pair of goals each, though this week’s arrival of Atletico and Real Madrid players – none of whom featured here – will give the Spain coach plenty to “ponder”.
219. tee up –> memulai, memulakan

237. disarray –> kekacauan, kusut
snout –> moncong, informan polisi (slang)
We need to win all our games but really need these games in Texas to open more doors for recruiting in that state.

hawker –> penjaja toko/kelontong/kaki lima

One day, my mum bought a whole basket of preserved eggs. When I went home, she presented them to me as if they were delicious bits of heaven and tried to persuade me to try one.

274. voraciously –> dg lahap, rakus
However, for some strange reason, I thought they tasted good because I have, since young, seen my Mom stuffing them into her mouth one by one “voraciously”.

281. demise –> kematian, pemberian warisan
–> memberi warisan, menyewakan
So 1972 is the start point and we’re currently in 2016. That means email has been around 44 years. If we assume we’re half way through the lifetime of email that would put its “demise” in the year 2060.
282. dart –> anak panah, bergerak/lari tiba2/dg cepat
Now assume you throw a “dart” at the timeline and it lands in the time span of email. The “dart” represents the “random chance” of existing in 2016.

I am very hopeful that we can pull our collective heads out of our collective arses and make some changes that will “impede” the coming collapse, but I’m just not able to suspend my observations of the world around me.
289. leverage –> pengaruh, pengungkit/mengungkit
wholesale –> borongan, usaha grosir
We are further consolidating wealth and power in fewer hands due to our addiction to the dollar and consumerism. We over-“leverage” our lives on easy credit, then when ‘fill in the blank’ bubble deflates, whatever assets we have are bought up wholesale by the consolidated power.
290. stifle –> menahan, mencekik
Technology – I worry that technology will be “stifled” for most of us, meaning black book agency work like DARPA and other world military agencies etc will see the gains and will withhold those from the population at large.

I think family bonds will strengthen (in the whole) as we can all share our misery in a “cathartic” fashion.

294. belittle –> meremehkan, anggap enteng/kecil
Along these lines, I think things like this very forum will further explode as a platform for everyone with an opinion on anything to feel it not only their self appointed right, but their obligation to scream that opinion to the masses and “belittle” anyone who cannot agree with them in the most unpleasant and rude manner as their hyper-inflated egos can manage.
295. caveat –> surat protes/keberatan
dabbled –> mencoba2, iseng
The only other “caveat” is, of course, if you have been someone that has gotten in a bit of police trouble or “dabbled” in drugs, it would not put you in a difficult position, but it does logically follow that putting you in a sensitive position would be unlikely.
