Movie Review

Rakta Charitra - Lottery Ticket is a very likeable movie starring rapper, singer and now actor Bow Wow. This could be the movie that transforms him into the next teenage matinee idol. People who play Powerball and Lotto should watch this movie for tips on what NOT to do if they ever win the big prize!

Bow Wow plays Kevin Carson, a nice kid with a big imagination who lives in the projects with his grandmother (played by Loretta Devine). When Kevin is not spending time hanging out with his best friends Benny (played by Brandon T. Jackson) and Stacie (Naturi Naughton), he works at the local Foot Locker. Kevin dreams of one day of running his own shoe design company, but is constantly derided by people who tell him he will never get out of the projects.

Rakta Charitra - The Powerball lottery has just come to town, causing quite a lot of excitement as people in the neighborhood spend their money trying to get rich. Kevin tells anyone who will listen that the lottery is just a racket designed to keep poor people poor. But soon he too gets caught up in the fever, and he eventually purchases a ticket using the numbers given to him in a fortune cookie.

As luck would have it, Kevin’s ticket ends up being the winner of the $370 million Powerball jackpot. But since it’s the beginning 4th of July weekend the lottery office is closed for 3 days. Now most people in that situation might hold up in a motel or their own bedroom for 3 days until the lottery office reopens … but after accidently letting it slip that he won the millions, Kevin folds the ticket into his wallet in his back pocket and spends 3 days walking around the projects.

The rest of the movie deals with Kevin trying to hold onto his ticket as everyone comes out of the woodwork to get a piece of the prize.

By far funniest character with the best lines has to be Kevin’s best friend Benny. He is always trying to come up with the “big ideas”, and when he sees that Kevin is being harassed by everyone he passes on the street he comes up with an absurd but very funny plot to escape the town using an old Underground Railroad map from his high school history book. Fantastic.

Lottery Ticket is a very cute movie with some amusing and thoughtful commentary about sexual responsibility and the need to be charitable to your community.

Warga Jateng Mengungsi‎

Gunung Merapi Meletus - Hujan abu vulkanik dan pasir dari gunung Merapi juga melanda Magelang Jawa Tengah, Selasa (26/10) pukul 17.00 WIB. Tepatnya warga di daerah Kelurahan Kalinegoro, Mertoyudan, Magelang, Jawa Tengah yang berjarak puluhan kilometer dari puncak Merapi tapi tetap terkena hujan abu dan pasir saat Merapi meletus.

Mbah Marijan Meninggal - Warga di Jalan alak IV/102 Perumnas Kalinegoro Mertoyudan Magelang, Tuti Hendrawati SPd menjelaskan, hujan abu dan pasir membuat langit sangat gelap. Saat gemuruh letusan Merapi terjadi, hujan pasir dan beberapa material dari gunung berguguran di atas atap rumah warga. Sehingga membuat sebagian warga panik dan histeris. Hal ini mengingatkan trauma warga pada letusan Merapi pada tahun 1998 silam.

"Suara letusannya membuat merinding. Meski jarak rumah kami sangat jauh sekitar 35 kilometer dari Merapi. Saya melihat sebagian warga ada yang histeris dan menangis. Sebab suasana ini mengingatkan kami pada letusan sebelumnya, yakni tahun 1998 lalu," ujar Tuti Hendrawati SPd saat dihubungi melalui telepon.

Ia menjelaskan lebih dari tiga jam abu vulkanik berguguran di atas atap rumah warga. Saat dilakukan pengukuran, ketebalan abu vulkanik sekitar 1,5 centimeter. Begitu juga dengan materi gunung yang lainnya seperti pasir dan batu kerikil juga dijumpai oleh warga di jalan-jalan umum. Sedangkan pada saat letusan abu vulkanik dan pasir, hujan air tidak terjadi. Akibatnya pada saat kendaraan melintas debunya berterbangan.

"Pas meletus tadi tidak hujan air di sini, biasanya kalau Merapi meletus setelah hujan abu dan pasir ada hujan air. Begitu juga dengan material pasir dan batu kerikil sempat kami jumpai di jalan-jalan. Tapi memang ngeri saat letusan terjadi, langit gelap gulita, kabut dan seperti kiamat," ujar warga lainnya, Agung Muhammad Yusuf Wibowo.

Ia juga menambahkan bahwa suara dentuman dan getaran guguran gunung masih terdengar, namun tidak begitu keras seperti letusan pertama. Saat ini warga masih menutup rumah masing-masing untuk menghindari debu agar tidak masuk ke dalam rumah. Sebagai antisipasinya, warga menyiramkan air ke halaman rumah masing-masing supaya tidak menimbulkan penyakit.

Agung menjelaskan, karena masih terjadi kabut, maka warga enggan keluar rumah. Mereka lebih banyak berdiam diri di rumah dan menyaksikan perkembangan Merapi melalui televisi dan radio. Begitu juga dengan rumah makan atau toko yang biasa buka hingga malam hari, setelah letusan hebat mereka langsung tutup total.

"Rumah makan dan toko langsung tutup total, sebab suasana sudah gelap. Dengan penerangan listrik pun suasana mencekam. Kebanyakan warga pilih berdiam diri, dzikir dan berdoa untuk mencari ketenangan dan keselamatan," tutup Agung Muhammad Yusup Wibowo

Diego Forlan di Jakarta ‎

7 Keajaiban Dunia - Bintang Uruguay Diego Forlan tiba di Jakarta sore ini pukul 17.40 WIB. Forlan ikut memperkuat timnya saat melawan Indonesia dalam laga persahabatan, Jumat, 8 Oktober 2010 nanti di Stadion Utama Gelora Bung Karno, Senayan, Jakarta.

Keajaiban Dunia - Namun, ada yang berbeda dengan striker yang pernah membawa Uruguay lolos semifinalis piala dunia 2010 ini. Forlan sepertinya akan mendapat perlakukan istimewa selama berada di Indonesia.

Pihak panitia sudah menyiapkan kendaraan khusus setibanya di Bandara Soekarno-Hatta Jakarta, sore nanti. "Sudah kami siapkan semuanya, termasuk mobil pribadi yang akan menjemputnya (Forlan)," kata Wakil Ketua Bidang Keamanan, Wakil Ketua Bidang Keamanan, Nugroho Setiawan, dihubungi VIVAnews.com, Selasa 5 Oktober.

Menurut Nugroho, kedatangan Forlan pun secara individu, tidak berbarengan dengan pemain Uruguay lainnya. "Untuk pemain lain hanya dijemput dengan menggunakan bus bersama rombongan dan langsung menuju hotel," tuturnya.

Selain fasilitas pengamanan ketat, bintang bola dunia yang bermain di Atletico Madrid ini juga akan mendapat bayaran sendiri sebesar US$ 20 ribu atau sekitar Rp 180 juta.

Jumlah itupun tak dipersoalkan PSSI. Ketua Badan Tim Nasional (BTN) PSSI Iman Arif menyatakan, permintaan itu berdasarkan hasil pertemuannya Daniel Bolotnicoff, agen Diego Forlan. Agen Forlan memastikan bergabungnya Forlan ke tim Uruguay melawat ke Jakarta, dengan syarat ada match fee (uang tampil).

Menurut Iman, permintaan match fee itu disebabkan Forlan berada di bawah naungan agen pemain. "Ya, mungkin karena dia pemain bintang, sehingga ada permintaan tambahan match fee. Jumlah itu di luar match fee yang diberikan kepada Timnas Uruguay," tambah Iman.

Menyikapi permintaan itu, lanjut dia, pihaknya menyanggupinya. "Harga itu masih termasuk murah untuk mendatangkan pemain sekelas Forlan. Dan biaya match fee itu sepenuhnya ditanggung BTN."

Sementara, untuk jadwal latihan sebelum bertanding, Timnas Uruguay akan melakukan latihan tertutup selama dua kali di Stadion Soemantri Brodjonegoro pada Rabu dan Kamis.

Duel persahabatan ini akan digelar di Stadion Utama Gelora Bung Karno (SUGBK), Senayan, Jakarta, dan ditayangkan secara eksklusif dan langsung oleh tvOne & ANTV mulai pukul 19.30 WIB.

Every game Persib Very Determining

Inter Island Cup 2010 - Inter Island Cup (IIC) in 2010 is a new tournament that was pioneered by PT Indonesian League. This tournament back a year from initial plan which will be held in 2009.

Inter Island Cup - Persib be representative of the island of Java being the best team (seen in the final standings LSI). While Arema appointed LSI team title holder last season. The tournament was followed by the best teams from the five major islands in Indonesia.

To get through to the grand final round of the upcoming 5 September, Persib must sweep the entire winnings from Persiba and Sriwijaya. Very risky if one of the matches ended in a draw.

But to win the two teams are not easy issues. Last season, losing twice Persib Persiba, both away games and stalls. On October 11, 2009 Persiba cage Persib lost 0-2, while at the Stadium Siliwangi May 20, 2010, Persib give up 1-2.

Meanwhile, Sriwijaya would be very hard to beat because they act as hosts who will get the support from fans. In terms of power also, both teams are stronger than previous seasons. Sriwijaya Especially now populated by players of quality with renowned coach, Ivan Kolev, a former coach PSSI.

Peta Gempa Indonesia

Peta Gempa Indonesia - A thick red line that seemed to divide into two parts of Sumatra island from north to south. The red line indicates Semangko slip faults or fault, the cause of the earthquake in Sumatra Island and mainland, which extends from Aceh to Lampung Bay Watermelon. Red color is what distinguishes the map of earthquake seismic zoning map in 2002 with Indonesia in 2010, the newly launched Ministry of Public Works (PU) in Jakarta, last Friday.

Peta Gempa - Not only in Sumatra, a fairly prominent red spots were also seen on the island of Sulawesi and Papua. Small islands in East Nusa Tenggara, Maluku and North Maluku not spared from the red spots. "The fundamental difference with SNI 03-1726-2002 is the old map was not entered several active fault on the mainland," said Irwan Meilano, geodesy experts from the Bandung Institute of Technology, involved in the Indonesian earthquake map revision team in 2010. "Differences of color from red to red once it was because there was fault contribution from the mainland. It had not been included in the old map, now a little bit there."

In the new seismic zoning map, the Ministry of Public Works include the acceleration of soil above the bedrock during the earthquake. In the seismic zoning map, each island was given a variety of colors: from light blue to dark red. "The older or more colors to the right, (that) the higher the danger level," said M. Ridwan, geologists from the Center for Housing Research and Development, Ministry of Public Works.

This new map, said Ridwan, a revision of the map in 2002, which is considered too long. "She's been eight years, and during that period many large earthquakes in Indonesia, so a lot of pressure to immediately replace it," he said.

To make this new map, the Ministry of Public Works formed in 2010 earthquake map revision team, which consists of experts in geology, seismology, and geodesy. Merger experts was conducted to determine all sources of earthquakes that may occur, start an earthquake in the subduction zone (meeting of two tectonic plates) to the most difficult to find the source of the earthquake in the mainland, namely the active fault, "said Irwan." Earthquake Yogyakarta, for example, It happened at Fault Opak.

Looking for an active fault is not actually the case is difficult, because the satellite data could show a clear fault line morphology. But not all the faults that have the same potential for disaster, so the team should revise the quantification of how active faults do it before the stain it with red to dark red color. "Looking for an active fault but there has never been a big earthquake in the fault record is very difficult," said Irwan. "If we enter a similar fault entirely, red yes all, no place to live, except in Borneo."

To overcome that problem, each expert in a team of 11 people are doing some approximation method. Geological experts approached by determining whether a potential earthquake source fault through morphological and geological. Seismology experts observe how large the earthquake potential of the corner kegempaannya. Meanwhile, geodesy experts determine that the speed of shear rate by measuring the parameters of fault slip rate. "Once there was a definition of seismic source is established, we can calculate the mathematical relationship between the length and magnitude of the earthquake magnitude earthquake," he said.

Geodetic observations needed to measure how active a fault. Observations that indicate faults in Java, for example, Lembang, only one-tenth the level of activity in the Sumatra fault. "The rate of shear is not as fast as in the Sumatra fault," he said. "Sumatra Fault shear rate in the teens up to 20 millimeters per year, but if the Lembang Fault only two millimeters per year."

When compared with the old map that measures the potential for disaster (hazard) of average seismicity in one place, this new map in greater detail by considering the morphology, seismic faults, and fault activity level. "It follows the standard methodology followed in the big countries, like Japan and the United States," said Irwan. "The model also has three dimensions, so a lot of improvement than the map in 2002."

Head of Research and Development Ministry of Public Works Sumaryanto Widayatin stated that this new map has been aligned with the International Building Code 2006 as well as three-dimensional analysis of seismic sources with a period of 475 and 2475 years for the peak ground acceleration, response spectra of short period (0.2 seconds) , and long period (one second). "With the completion of the latest Indonesian earthquake map in 2010, the computation of seismic load on the structure would be more accurate and efficient," said Sumaryanto.

This map has to accommodate all needs, from building construction, building of water, until the bridge. This map will support the provision of national infrastructure development and earthquake resistant. "Buildings and building, especially in earthquake prone areas, should be designed for earthquake resistance in accordance with this map," he said. "Design must enter the structure earthquake load factor which refers to a map of this earthquake. When ready to respond to the earthquake, both the number of victims and earthquake losses will be reduced."

Sumaryanto hope local governments can use this map as a reference in local development, including building regulations and licensing. Changes to national standards as a follow-up earthquake seismic zoning map was estimated to be completed in August. "We will also make microzonation, micro-scale seismic zoning, in order to know the condition of the soil surface and the vulnerability of buildings, so that the next Public Works has a list of the risk of damage caused by the earthquake," he said. "It's also useful in the emergency plan to reduce damage and losses caused by the earthquake."

Development investments in earthquake prone areas, said Irwan, it will become more expensive because the building may be established at the site must be strong enough to withstand the acceleration that may occur in the area. "But Japanese researchers have done studies that show that increasing investment in preparation, education, and to move people from vulnerable areas to safer areas, the fewer funds must be spent for reconstruction and rehabilitation of post-earthquake," he said.

Still Prediksi Chili Vs Spanyol

Prediksi Chili Vs Spanyol - Honduras, das weltweit größte Bananen produzierenden Ländern in einem Dual-Spiel angeschlagene frühere WM im Jahr 2010. Auf der Premierenfeier ihres melibas Chile mit 1:0. während auf der nächsten Party verwandelt Team Matador, dass sie zwei Tore ohne Antwort schlagen.

Aber es bleibt zu hoffen, in den Köpfen der Truppen Reinaldo Rueda werden. Sie werden wollen beweisen, dass nicht Honduras ist ein Irrtum seremeh.

Darüber hinaus hat La bicolor keine Schädigung Probleme der Spieler. Darüber hinaus gibt es keine konkurrierenden Spieler von dem Verbot betroffen.

Honduras ist immer noch ihre beste Mannschaft zu verlieren, mit David Suazo als Schemel. Darüber hinaus wird erwartet, dass Wilson Palacios mehr Kreativität an die Schweizer Verteidigung offen.

Von der Schweizer Camp kann Trainer Ottmar Hitzfeld zu maximieren VFB Stuttgart Torhüter Diego Benaglio. Diese Spieler erscheint außergewöhnlich, wenn die Schweizer besiegten Chile. Nun, wie auch Hoffnungen Benaglio Ottmar Hitzfeld. Gelassenheit vor einer gefährlichen Situation vor dem Torwart, und fachmännisch geschlossenen Raum schießen, wenn konfrontiert eins zu eins mit dem Angreifer gegenüber dem Schweizer Ass. Alpine Team hat noch Tranquillo Barnetta, der durch die honduranischen Verteidigung Flügel Kamm kann.

Allerdings Verteidiger Philippe Senderos verletzte, Mittelfeldspieler Valon Behrami Sanktionen.

Im Allgemeinen ist die Schweiz noch über Honduras begünstigt. Aber die Leistung des Landes Alpen eher Instabilität. Mighty top Europameister Spanien im ersten Spiel, auch träge in der Partie gegen Chile, wo sie 1-0 geschlagen wurden.

Nun kann die Schweiz ihre Instabilität Muffel mit Beweiskraft Sieg über Honduras, oder sogar zu geben Honduras ein Schock? Rakyat Merdeka Online selbst bietet überlegene Vorhersage der Schweiz mit dem Vergleich Verhältnis 60:40.

The World Cup

Jadwal Piala Dunia 2010 - Smells can take you to many places, and that is why people use them. Sometimes they can remind you of good times or something that was worth remembering.Mens aftershaveseems to serve this purpose as well. This association is also greatly used in advertising, as people love the idea that if it is good for Beckham or Rooney then it is good for me.

Piala Dunia 2010 - Male grooming has been around for centuries, as gentlemen of stature have been known to have a bit of an eccentric side. These days it is part of the whole image for men to be keen on grooming. Women adore a man that takes cares of his looks and smells good. The footballer's love of designermens aftershave has ensured that even the everyday man smells appealing to the ladies. In some cases this is due to the fact that footballers have created their own brand when it comes to mens aftershave, thus keeping the male competitiveness going.

The mens aftershave market has expanded in the same direction as the women's perfumes. Mens aftershave does have a practical value in that it helps protect the skin with an added benefit of smelling great. There are times when you have to let the luxury spoil your skin, and perhaps that is what some mens aftershave does for a footballer's face. With being constantly in the crowd, it is hard for the footballers not to want to have that certain attraction with a seductive smell.

It is not only about being able to play great football these days, but also being able to sell the goods. Sometimes the footballers need to smell the part as well. It seems life as a footballer is not always about playing with passion for the game but also being able to play the passionate part when it comes to mens aftershave.

Indeed, it is about keeping up appearances no matter how they might seem sometimes rather strange to the non famous people.Mens aftershave does complement the man if the smell works with his own natural body odor. So perhaps the footballers have to be praised for having the right mens aftershave chosen for them.

Quality is essential when it comes to the amount of money that one is willing to spend. Footballers are known for their keen sense of splashing money around. This also applies to the mens aftershave that they are willing to buy. Having all the best things in life does require some hard work, and that is why we can't blame footballers for needing to purchase the best mens aftershave that money can buy.

It is not hard to understand the reasons why the footballers will want to increase their popularity. Sometimes women need a man to drool over, even though they might not get to be with him. Wearing the right mens aftershave also increases the popularity and envy of other men. After all, what is so wrong in being desired?

Nokia Handphone

Hp Nokia - Global vendors are eagerly awaiting the upcoming 3G network deployment opportunity in India. But it appears that Nokia Siemens Networks (NSN) had a competitive foresight which saw the company setting up a manufacturing facility in India way back in 2008 and which is now ready to serve the 3G demand from Indian operators. Kanika Atri, Head of Marketing & Communications – India Region at Nokia Siemens Networks speaks to TelecomTiger on NSN India’s 3G preparedness.

Nokia - Ans: NSN does not disclose factory capacity, but we can confidently share that the Chennai facility has enough capacity to meet 100% of 3G equipment demand by all future Indian 3G operators. The facility is already producing 3G equipment and is also exporting to APAC region and even Europe. The choice of India to set up this manufacturing facility has been obvious. India is not just a high-growth telecommunications market, but also an innovation hub. Setting up manufacturing operations here has helped us enhance customer proximity and focus. We can now cater to the local demand more effectively with shorter time to market, improved delivery reliability, enhanced flexibility and reduced costs.

Nokia Siemens Networks inaugurated the Chennai facility for the manufacture and distribution of mobile communications infrastructure in 2008 with a USD 70 million investment spread over three years.

Q2) Apart from India which are the other markets you intend to serve through this facility?

Ans: The factory’s production will cater to domestic, as well as global markets such as APAC & Europe; however, the demands of the Indian market will be given priority in the manufacturing decisions Q3) Even with the setting up of local manufacturing facility, the threat from Chinese vendors still persists on the price front. How do you view this scenario especially considering that price is an important consideration in the decision-making process of Indian operators?

Ans: We believe that our true global and customer driven supply chain, with sourcing, manufacturing and distribution close to our customers in both mature and growth markets is a clear competitive advantage. Wherever our customers are, we can ensure short lead times, delivery reliability, flexibility and low cost. Our fully integrated, modular and lean delivery processes also give us the flexibility needed to quickly deliver not only hardware, but also software, services and solutions. So, our competitive advantage is not only cost based but value based, and our customers choose us due to our highest value of ownership of technology. We are highly competitive with our offerings right from manufacturing to deployment to maintenance, as we focus on building end to end efficiency and delivering superior customer experience for all our solutions and services.

Q4) Do you intend to cater to TD-LTE market in India as well through this facility?

Ans: The 3G base stations manufactured by Nokia Siemens Networks in Chennai are already LTE-ready. They can support LTE with a software upgrade; providing a convenient upgrade roadmap to operators.

Space Astrology

Primbon - Aries: Happy April Fool’s Day! Resist the temptation to think that you don’t know how to play the mediator. Take a page from your opposite sign of Libra, get out of yourself and imagine reality from another’s perspective. Act and initiate from the mantle of peacemaker. With the Moon (and She has been known to incite fools, La Luna, the lunatic) moving through the area of interpersonal relationships until Wednesday, April 7, make sure that you’re not being played for a fool by those closest to you. It happens when their eyes start to glaze over as you make yet another rant. Self-centered is one thing; selfishness is a whole other thing. Don’t be an old fool out of misplaced.

Taurus: There’s no fool like an old fool, and here’s how you’ve been foolish: You can be all mouth, tongue and lips with no ears. You are the practical joker of the zodiac (along with Sagittarius). Through being an old intractable fool, you can make silent enemies, when actually you’re very laid back and charming. Lately, you’ve been seeing family members all around you, like the young boy in "The Sixth Sense" who quipped, “I see dead people." You’ve been perceiving the qualities of Mommy and Daddy everywhere you place your psychological gaze. Karma, a.k.a. issues, brings up repeatedly what you have been suppressing. It’d be exceptionally foolish for you to ignore messages from those who remind you of those past. Time for emotional housecleaning, all jokes aside. Take a page out of the Scorpio (your opposite sign) book, look for the underlying motivations of those who annoy you, no matter how small the infraction.

Gemini: You’d be the oldest fool if you ignore the messages from your subconscious. Mercury, your guardian, moves into Taurus until June 10. Prepare for your logical mind to seem like it is playing tricks on you. This happens to get you beyond your preconceived notions regarding how you think or feel life should be. It is as if your left hemisphere does not know what your right hemisphere is doing (because it doesn't). Coming out of imbalance of either extreme, logic or feeling, mixes up your messages. Don’t assume facts to fit your beliefs. Don’t let your feelings cloud your naturally objective judgment. Mercury is the original fool in the pantheon. That’s why you must check the facts and analyze the motivations behind your emotions, or you‘ll be the aforementioned old fool.

Cancer: Believing that you are only the sum total of your professional reputation makes you an old fool. Part of this day’s light-hearted shenanigans demands you keep to the personal touch and leave the cutthroat activities to those who are primed to behave in this manner. My grandmother used to call it "home training," her version of good manners. April Fools Day symbolizes your liberty to live how you want to live, regardless of detractors. You’ll be that old fool if you believe the physical world of 5 senses is the only world there is. Break with your patterns that overly serve us, but do not serve you. Too much home training suppresses your wild and crazy self. Allow yourself to have one less person or thing or place to take care of. Less nouns and more verbs, ok? Moon someone, especially on April 2.

Leo: You become the old fool based on your desire to control, plan and strategize. Come to an understanding that your sunny disposition lights in as your gift to the rest of us. Reclusive dressing may be a term that medics used, but for you it means showing up in a bit of a disguised individual. All that you see does not have to be outwardly expressed. Old fools have visceral memories of real surrender. Or at least they should have, idealism and all. When you move toward cynicism, you place yourself as the King in The Emperor’s New Clothes. In effect, you lose your child, and that is the most singularly foolish act you can do. The friendly skies are exceptionally so for you. If anything, you’d have character flaw from everyone saying "yes." Spoiled; no, indulged; yes.

Virgo: Refusing to sense that there’s total love existing from spirit and emanating from your soul adds age to your fool reality. To continue to accept that your past does not effect your imagination comprises an almost total folly. Doesn't your future deserve better than this? As “I analyze” is your key phrase, you have to know you can express yourself in a way-too-subtle fashion. Those Tea Party gene pool folk just won‘t get your synthesizing ways. Please resist the temptation to be seen as foolishly dumb by going along with narrow-minded ninnies or nincompoops. And, if your good girl clashes with your bad girl, just know who is who, ok?

Libra: Opposite sex making out creates the atmosphere of your old foolish nature. All Fools Day, circa 1592 France and Taily Day (April 2) exhibiting your exposed backside wanting to be kicked may be what you live for. Realize that you have an homoerotic subtext in your nature. Basically, it is not about genitalia, I’m speaking to the energies exchanged. There is no lovers beware; there is mostly love be aware. Acknowledge your innate powers to ascertain what a peer needs, and only then, take it under advisement of how to fulfill said needs. Hello, only fools fall in love. Asses are optional, in other words, you can show your love without showing your bee-hind. At the end of all life, fools defy will, no matter they be old or young fools, because will determines the perspective of age.

Scorpio: Being afraid of death is a foolish feeling. Generally, women fear death less than men because of the biological imperative of giving life. Men, well, our creative energies are more abstractedly focused. Of course, we want to believe that the 21st century will shift gender roles and biological clocks. However, this All Fool’s Day, take a page out of compatible Cancer’s message and moon someone. If you don’t feel you can do what I’ve suggested from integrity, think how you can contemplate why God protects babies and fools? Keeping your enlarged mind from calculation magnetizes angels, fairies and mermaids. Know this, for sure. Give yourself 6 weeks, then observe splendor from enriched realities. I be guaranteeing it, foolishly speaking or not...

Sagittarius: Oh, please, you live to be an old fool, or a free unmarried person. C’mon, by the time your soul’s evolution reaches the 9th sign of the zodiac, you need to be transcending some of those presumed gender roles. Bachelors don’t have to be gay; women who choose to remain unencumbered don’t either. Making unauthorized right-brained leaps keeps you in the same segregated categories, burned out, fringed out and strung out. Instead ask yourself, “Why do fools fall in love?” And, more importantly, “Are you easy to love?” Fools are easy to love because they stay centered on the present moment. No worries, no expectations, no obstructions to loving energies. That’s you when you don’t make more of what you really know and feel.

Capricorn: You can be like the people of ancient Troy who did not heed Cassandra’s prophecy. She had an nonreturnable gift from Apollo, she could see the future, but had a curse where no one would believe her. You can be a fool through conforming, so you tell no one what you see for fear of "rocking the boat." Whether you say something to us or not, please, baby, please, be honest with yourself. Speak to those whom you trust, even if it’s only to whom is printed on the dollar. Your ruler, Saturn, is moving backwards from incompatible Libra to supportive Virgo on April 7. You have been given almost four months to repeal mistakes made through "going along to get along." To ignore your vision (or your personal needs) creates a self-fulfilling prophecy labeled folly and loneliness.

Aquarius: Seriously, you can take the world too seriously. You can be foolish only when you have innocence. Looking too much to what could go wrong keeps you an old mental codger or crabby cat lady. You are a diamond in the rough. Fools like you push boundaries. Fools call out taboos. You’d have to have an pure vision without an agenda of action to not get caught in the heavy net of being used. Intimacy must accompany foolishness like Tanto and The Lone Ranger, or Louise does Thelma. Stand by your person(s).

Pisces: Too much drama based on exceptional criticism comprises your basic problem. You are seeing the contrasts between the extremes just a bit too starkly. Yours is a compassionate sign, and must heed the middle feeling ground based on planetary transcendent truths. To get locked in a visionary polarity without considering the other pole causes your voice to become shrill or rough. When we do not grant you an audience, you play the role of the unwelcome fool. Reframe your critiques. Know your mediating point, and watch your support increase. Who knows, maybe, just maybe, you are primed to create additional income streams, as long as your potentially foolish soul does not become the Devil’s fool.

Recipe Inspirations ‎

Vegetarian Recipes Easy - I will admit that I selected this recipe packet because it appeared to be the simplest, with the fewest ingredients: 6 chicken thighs, 1 1 / 2 pounds small red potatoes, salt and olive oil. The measured amounts of paprika, crushed rosemary leaves, minced garlic and ground black pepper were provided.

Vegetarian Recipes - Preparation was simple as well. Mix the oil, spices and salt in a large bowl. Cut the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Add the chicken and potatoes to the bowl and toss them to coat well (that was the really fun part). Then spread the chicken and potatoes in a baking pan (lined with foil and sprayed with cooking spray) and bake for 30 minutes at 425 degrees. Couldn't be much easier than that!

The resulting dish was tasty and well-seasoned, but not overwhelming.

Some meals I've made with prepackaged seasoning mixes come out too powerful, but this was just right. As a bonus, it did fill the kitchen - actually, the whole house - with a tantalizing aroma while baking.

With their ease of use, these packets of premeasured spices would be very convenient for those who are not inclined to follow recipes from books or magazines or who do not already have a well-stocked spice rack. And you don't have to guess at which seasonings or how much to use; although the premeasured amounts here could limit you somewhat if you needed to prepare a significantly larger dinner than what's indicated.

One negative factor in this age of environmental awareness: Each of the seasonings is packaged in a separate plastic cube, all of which are contained in the overall plastic packaging. It may not be a large amount of packaging, but it's certainly more than if you simply measured your own seasonings from bulk containers.

Quesadilla casserole

Dinner took six cans, a packet of cheese, one onion, 12 corn tortillas and five pre-measured spices.

All that was soiled in the process was one pan, one baking dish and a spatula.

Although it was easy and tasty, the quesadilla casserole wasn't something I'd typically make.

For one, there was a lack of fresh produce. The only fresh ingredient the recipe called for was onion - otherwise, I just opened cans of tomato sauce, corn, chilies and beans and tossed in cheese.

The recipe did call for ground beef, but I'm a vegetarian so I substituted it with another can of black beans.

I ended up adding fresh avocado to the meal when I served it.

Although it was a bit sad to just plop out a bunch of canned goods, the results were delicious.

I can see why, after a long day, a family would be inclined to whip this meal up.

It's quick, it tastes good, there's little mess and it didn't cost a lot of money.

Plus, the premeasured spices means you don't have to have a lot of jars filling your pantry - after all, how often do you typically use most of those spices?

In the end though, maybe the way to strike a balance, and have more fresh food with dinner, would be to add a salad to the meal.

Shrimp and Pasta Primavera

The good people at McCormick have come up with an easy way to try new recipes without spending a fortune on spices. Their new line of "Recipe Inspirations" include all the spices you will need making them very "cook-and-budget-friendly."

My husband and I sampled the Shrimp and Pasta Primavera on a recent Sunday night. A quick stop at the store for the four ingredients I did not have on hand and I was ready to cook.

The recipe was easy to follow and came out absolutely delicious. We both agreed that the spice freshness added to the great flavor. I made the recipe as directed with the shrimp, but to make it less of a budget-buster you could opt for simple pasta primavera (omitting the shrimp) and it would still be a great dish.

Garlic Lime Chicken Fajitas

The timing of the arrival of this new product by McCormick was perfect. I had just spent a day cleaning out outdated spices. (I honestly couldn't believe how many of my spices were old. Not just old, some were ancient when I checked the dates on the ones in the back row.)

I gleefully snatched up the garlic lime chicken fajitas package since I had all of the ingredients except for the spices. The recipe card was extremely easy to follow and the fajitas, well, they weren't just good, they were great, great as in I would serve them to guests great.

I like this concept by McCormick for a few reasons: Cost - you can try spices to see if you like them before buying a larger container. Ease/convenience - if you're running to store after work you don't have to try to remember if you have all of "those" spices at home to make a certain dish and perhaps even pick up a new recipe. And, health - If you wanted to try a dish but someone in the family has allergies to a certain spice it could easily be omitted from their portion or the entire dish as each spice is in a separate compartment in the package.

Spanish Chicken Skillet

The recipe was straight-forward and amounted to a very tasty and flavorful dish. I liked the addition of crushed red pepper, but I thought it was good they warned it was optional for those who don't do spice. The one glaring ingredient that was never mentioned was salt, and when I did a final taste test, it need some pretty generous salting. In this case, I would have included salt along the way--in the flour mixture that coated the chicken and then to the pepper and onion when saut--ing those.

I added some yellow rice as a side dish, which went well with the chicken, I thought. You could eat the chicken on its own, of course, but since the dish ends up as chicken in a sauce, it's sort of calling for a starch of some kind. Potatoes, rice, even pasta-anything would work.

I was pretty surprised at how flavorful the dish was. It even passed the husband taste test, and he's got a better palette than I do. I'd say that I'd prefer to just buy the spices in a full jar than depend on these packets. Buying the whole jars seems more economical.

Apple and Sage Pork Chops

McCormick has a way of simplifying things. The Recipe Inspirations instructions are clear and easy-to-follow. The spices are neatly packaged in tiny plastic containers.

But does all that ensure a great tasting meal?

Turns out, yes.

My pork chops, which had been spiced and browned and then sauteed in chopped onions and apple slices, were moist and tasty. Even my daughters, who don't eat much meat, liked them, although the oldest said she was more impressed by the apples.

I must say I initially wondered if separating all the spices into their own bins wasn't excess packaging. Why not just combine them all into one pocket?

I was also reluctant to use dried, minced garlic. I prefer fresh.

On the other hand, what a wonderful introduction to the world of spices - for college kids, newlyweds or anyone just now deciding to cook more from scratch.

Tiger Woods in contention at the Masters

Tiger Woods Scandals -  has himself right where he wants to be, in contention at the Masters after two rounds. Woods followed up his first round 68 with a second round 70 in more difficult conditions at Augusta National Golf Club. At 6-under, he's in a five-way tie for third place, two shots behind a pair of Brits, Lee Westwood and Ian Poulter, both at 8-under.

Had Phil Mickelson not lipped out a long putt on the 18th green, he and Tiger Woods would have been paired together in tomorrow's third round. As it is, they are tied.

"It feels good. It feels really good," Woods said about being in the mix in his first tournament after a five-month layoff. "I usually put myself in contention most of the time most years here, and this year I'm right there. We've got 36 more holes and I'm sure the golf course, they are not going to make it easy for us. They made it easy on the first day for us and today was certainly much more difficult."

On a day where the wind switched directions, making the par five holes more difficult, Woods continued his assault on them, with birdies on three of the four, putting him 7-under for the week on them. Thursday, he eagled two of the par fives.

On the 13th hole Friday, he laid up. On the 15th, he made a 15-foot birdie putt after getting a bit fortunate on a difficult chip shot.

"I had 218 front and obviously I could get there with a 5‑wood but the wind was all over the place, and it makes no sense to go for it," he said, explaining his strategy on 13. "So I laid up to the right, make sure I had an angle down to the flag, and I had 61 to the hole and was too conservative on the pitch. If I lined it anywhere near the flags it would probably hop over the back, so consequently I kind of eased up on it too much and ended up short."

Still, he made the 20-footer.

"Then 15 was an interesting little pitch I had there," he said. "I had to line it over the sprinkler (head) but short of the green."

The ball landed an inch past the sprinkler head and Woods was lucky it got onto the green. He made the 15-footer.

Woods has makeable birdie putts on 16 and 17 after he threaded a 9-iron shot through the trees to the green, but missed them both.

"I felt more comfortable because I was hitting the ball better and I was putting better, even though I didn't shoot as low a score," he said. "I think that's a factor of the conditions. But I feel like I had more control of the golf ball today from tee-to-green and I hit putts right on my lines. That's something I wasn't doing yesterday."

Kesenian Tradisional

Zodiak - Kesenian tradisional Kabapaten Purbalingga, Jawa Tengah, akan digelar di Anjungan Jawa Tengah Taman Mini Indonesia Indah (TMII), Minggu (4/4) mulai pukul 09:00. Di antaranya, Kesenian Campursari Calung Banyumasan, Tari Lengger, Tari Kuda Lumping, dan Tarian Ngoser. Tari Ngoser terkenal karena gerakan pinggang yang memutar atau menyamping sampai menyentuh tanah.

Primbon Kesenian daerah perlu dilestarikan karena merupakan hasil budaya nenek moyang. Kalau bukan kita siapa lagi yang akan melestarikannya. Jangan sampai budaya kita diklaim bangsa lain,” kata Juli, Staf Humas Anjungan Jateng.
Pasar merupakan pusat transaksi ekonomi, perdagangan & komunikasi antar masyarakat yang sudah ada & menjadi kebutuhan sehari-hari sejak zaman dahulu.

Selama ini Pasar tradisional selalu identik dengan kesan semrawut, kotor dan kumuh & tidak aman sehingga sebagian anggota masyarakat lebih memilih berbelanja di Mall yang dikenal sebagai pusat perbelanjaan yang bersih, berpendingin udara, mewah tetapi dengan harga jual barang yang jauh lebih mahal serta tidak terdapat pengalaman tawar menawar antara penjual & pembeli.

Saat ini sudah hadir Pasar Segar yang merupakan merek dagang (trade mark) pasar modern yang dikembangkan oleh BSA Land yaitu konsep Pasar tradisional yang dimordenisasi & dikelola secara profesional dimana barang-barang yang diperdagangkan terjamin kesegarannya (fresh from the farm),  bangunan yang modern & tertata rapi, suasana pasar yang bersih & nyaman, serta keamanan pedagang & pembeli yang terjamin 24 jam.

"Sampai dengan Agustus 2009 sudah dua proyek Pasar Segar yang di-launching. Pertama, Pasar Segar Depok di Jl Tole Iskandar, Depok (Jawa Barat), pada bulan Maret, dan kedua, Pasar Segar Bintaro-Serpong, di perumahan Graha Raya, Tangerang (Banten), pada bulan Juli 2009," Ujar Steven, Staff Manager Pasar Segar kepada Rakyat Merdeka Online, di Kantor Pasar Segar, Ruko Madrid, Bumi Serpong Damai.

Selain terdapat Ruko, Kios & Lapak (tempat penjualan sayur mayur, daging, ikan & kebutuhan pangan lainnya) dan area parkir yang luas & memadai, PASAR SEGAR dilengkapi pula dengan Escalator (untuk bangunan pasar 2 lantai), tempat pemotongan unggas, ATM Center, Security 24 jam & area wisata kuliner yang disebut sebagai Plaza Café.

"Di setiap kompleks bangunan Pasar Segar selalu terdapat minimal sepuluh pintu akses keluar & masuk pasar & diharapkan semua tempat baik Ruko, Kios maupun Lapak akan menjadi tempat dagangan yang strategis," tambah Steven.

Kios & Ruko Pasar Segar sangat cepat penjualannya baik sebagai tempat berbisnis yang menguntungkan juga sebagai komoditi investasi yang sangat prospektif. Hal tersebut  dikarenakan selain Developer selalu memilih lokasi yang sangat strategis (harus selalu dilalui kendaraan umum, dikelilingi banyak perumahan padat penduduk kelas menengah atas & disekitarnya masih minim fasilitas pasar sebagai tempat belanja atau bahkan belum ada fasilitas tempat belanja sejenis).

Sebagai persiapan operasional Pasar Segar, BSA Land sudah menyiapkan divisi pengelolaan. Divisi Pengelolaan ini memiliki tugas sangat strategis. Pada saat persiapan, menyeleksi para pedagang yang akan menyewa lapak, memberikan arahan kepada para pedagang bagaimana melayani pembeli, cara memajang barang dagangan yang dipasarkan agar menarik pembeli, serta bagaimana mengelola sayur mayur, ikan & daging agar kesegarannya tetap terjaga, dan sebagainya. Kemudian pada saat sudah beroperasi, mengelola pasar agar terus terjaga kebersihan, keamanan, ketertiban, dan kenyamanannya. Dengan demikian pengunjung akan merasa senang berbelanja dan pasar semakin ramai.

Sony Ericsson Vivaz

Sony Ericsson Vivaz - The Sony Ericsson Vivaz, the successor to the somewhat hobbled Satio, has landed. Is this slice of Symbian S60 smartness worth signing away your life for? Or should you plump for something a tad more trendy? Read our definitive Sony Ericsson Vivaz review and we’ll tell all.

There’s no denying that the Sony Ericsson Vivaz is a looker. This is unarguably the hottest handset we’ve ever fondled from Sony Ericsson. Its tapered edges and slimline frame mean it sits comfortably in the hand and doesn’t suffer from the bulge which some smartphones suffer. Admittedly the plastic body does feel a tad cheap in comparison with the latest HTC Legend, but then pretty much everything does, so we’re willing to cut the Vivaz some slack.

Although this is a smartie in the Symbian S60 mould, the Vivaz also stakes its reputation on its media skills. Namely, its camera and video recording. The 12 megapixel sensor from the Satio has been eased back to a mere 8.1MP. That hardly makes a difference here though, with shots emerging crisp and clean and the snapper working surprisingly well for us in low light, despite the phone only packing an LED light for the wee hours.

The dedicated stills button on the Vivaz’s side is separate from the video knob, which avoids any confusion when you’re trying to bust out the Vivaz’s imaging skills in a hurry. The camera itself follows the trusted system of older Sony Ericsson phones, with one touch access to different modes, direct uploading to the web and of course, face detection. The latter we found to be occasionally wonky, failng to pick up the mugs of our mates when we pointed the cam in their direction. It’s neat, but not wholly reliable.

The aforementioned video button lets you duck straight into the HD video recording function too, and when working as a video camera, the Vivaz is a peach. With continuous focus and direct YouTube uploading, the Vivaz really does steal the limelight from other HD cams, phones or otherwise. For an in-depth look, check out our Vivaz camera and HD video review.

Although the camera really does set the Sony Ericsson Vivaz apart, the phone itself suffers nasty hangovers from the Satio days. The resistive touchscreen is, quite frankly, awful. It’s often necessary to stab at it at least twice in order to register your prods and dive into menus. And then there’s the onscreen keyboard.

Try as we might, it was nigh on impossible to get up to any kind of speed with it. You need to press down so hard to register a keystroke you fear the screen itself is about to snap.

We don’t have such harsh words for Symbian S60. While it remains at the back of the pack when it comes to smartphone OSes, scooting round menus is nice and straightforward and anyone who’s used Symbian before will easily find their way around the Vivaz. Read our Sony Ericsson Vivaz S60 and apps review for more details.

The Vivaz uses the same skin as the Satio, which can lead to plenty of confusion. The five different homescreens, with access to Twitter, favourite contacts, widgets, favourite apps and your photo reel is neat, but it’s let down by the poor touchscreen which makes it tough to flick through each one. Frequently you’ll find yourself heading into menus and apps you just didn’t want to select.

There are also some minor quibbles with the build quality of the Vivaz. The inclusion of a 3.5mm headphone jack is welcome, but the tapered ends mean it’s on the side, making it uncomfortable to plug in a pair of cans and stick the Vivaz in your pocket. The lack of a lens cover means we’re also fearful that scratches and scrapes will mar that lovely peeper.

The Sony Ericsson Vivaz is undoubtedly a decent camera phone, with superb HD video skills. But as the Sony Ericsson X10 approaches and a raft of brilliant new smartphones, with decent touchscreens and better interfaces hit the shelves, it feels more than a little dated.

World Cup 2010 South African

Theme Song FIFA World Cup 2010 Schedule - South African miners are confident annual platinum output will not be hit by power disruptions linked to this year's football World Cup, but there is still a risk of short-term price volatility in a sensitised market.

FIFA World Cup 2010 - And in the longer term, the fragility of the republic's power supply is set to keep production under pressure, adding another layer of support to prices which have already hit 20-month highs this year amid expectations for a rise in demand.

South African power issues have been high on the agenda of platinum traders since the last major power crisis in South Africa in early 2008 resulted in weeks of rolling blackouts and a shutdown of the mining sector.

This sent the price of platinum, four out of five ounces of which originate in South Africa, to a record $2 290 (R17 038) an ounce.

"Power is a major issue, given that South Africa is such a dominant player on the supply side," said Societe Generale analyst David Wilson. "That is a longer term issue than just this summer."

Talk abounded early this year that the republic's hosting of the football World Cup might result in power shortages to major users. South Africa has hosted large international sports tournaments, including the rugby World Cup, but the football World Cup is one of the sporting calendar's biggest events.

Power utility Eskom said it will need an extra 275 megawatts of electricity to supply the tournament, for which 2.24 million tickets have already been sold.

While both Eskom and the republic's miners say they have taken steps to address power issues linked to the event. Even minor disruptions during the peak-demand South African winter may have a disproportionate impact on prices, analysts say.

Barend Ritter, a Cape Town-based platinum analyst at Sanlam Investment Management, said power shortages are likely to hit big electricity users like miners the hardest.

"One-off events could mean a loss of a few percent in production, but in terms of sentiment, the market will take the view that there is likely to be a constraint in production, and prices will spike," he said.

Anglo Platinum, which produces nearly half global supply, is bringing forward scheduled maintenance to coincide with the Cup to lessen the impact of possible power constraints.

Number two platinum miner Impala Platinum said it would be "business as usual" during the tournament.

Analysts say the immediate impact of the event on platinum prices is likely to be limited to short-term spikes, which are unlikely to take prices back to the $2 000 level.

Miners have learnt from 2008's crisis. Many have taken steps like installing expensive but effective diesel-fuelled generators to help deal with short-term power disruptions.

VULNERABLE

But in the longer run, they are still vulnerable to problems with the republic's fragile electricity infrastructure.

The lengths miners have had to go to safeguard output during the tournament have reignited concerns over power stability.

"The World Cup is of itself not the biggest issue, but it is an interesting case study of what Eskom has to do to make sure electricity is available to users," platinum processor Johnson Matthey's publications manager David Jollie told Reuters.

Eskom said last week that South Africa's power supply is seen as a serious concern from 2011 onwards, until new power stations come on stream.

The utility was granted approval to raise electricity prices by 25 percent this year to help it build more plants, but until these are on line, fears over power supply are likely to linger. Miners may hold off investing in new projects while electricity supply is still an issue, analysts say. Platinum has one of the tightest market balances of any precious metal.

According to Johnson Matthey, it swung into a surplus of 140 000 ounces last year from a deficit of 240 000 ounces in 2008. But that was at a time when demand from automakers, who consume more than 50 percent of the metal annually, was slumping as the economic downturn bit.

With South Africa's biggest platinum miners forecasting flat production this year compared with last year, an expected rebound in demand is set to tip that balance back into deficit.

"When you do the maths, if you expect a rebound in auto catalyst demand next year, will there be enough platinum to supply that market?" Investec analyst Rebecca O'Dwyer said. "There may not be."

Current prices forecasts for platinum, collated from research notes produced by eight banks in the last month, suggest prices could average around $1 600 an ounce this year, and are likely to rise again next year to around $1 700.

While that is far from the dizzy heights the metal hit in early 2008, it is still well above last year's average price of around $1 200. With demand rising, until fears over power supply are calmed, they are unlikely to return to those levels. - Reuters

Memahami Primbon

Primbon sering dijadikan orangsebagai bagian dari kehidupan mereka, terutama masyarakat jawa. Dalam Berbagai hal, banyak masyarakat Jawa menjadikan primbon ini sebagai bagaian dari kehidupan mereka. Dengan adanya suatu patokan dalam perhitungan yang mereka buat, primbon menjadi hal yang begitu berarti bagi mereka.

Film Terbaru dalam Piala Oscar seolah menyimpa sebuah kutukan dan masih berbau misterius, ini sama artinya, di barat sana yang berbau mistik layaknya Primbon, masih dipercaya orang. Biarpun orang Eropa dan Amerika tidak percaya akan primbon, namun terhadap yang berbau mistik mereka masih saja ada sebuah kepercayaan juga. Lihat saja ketika mereka berpikir ada sesuatu yang mistik dalam Piala Oscar.

Piala Oscar adalah suatu kebanggaan bagi para aktris dunia. Tetapi, konon Piala Oscar memiliki cerita tersendiri bagi rumah tangga maupun kisah asmara para aktris. Sejumlah aktris dunia bercerai setelah meraih Piala Oscar. Benarkah Piala Oscar membawa kutukan bagi kehidupan rumah tangga selebritis?

Beberapa artis harus menghadapi perceraian maupun perpisahan dengan orang-orang yang dicintainya setelah menerima Piala Oscar. Saat ini, perceraian Kate Winslet dengan Sam Mendes sedang hangat menjadi pembicaraan. Melihat dari kasus perceraian pasangan itu, dianggap bila Piala Oscar memiliki pengaruh dalam rumah tangga para aktris dunia tersebut.

Pasalnya, tak hanya Kate Winslet, artis-artis ternama lainnya yang juga menerima piala tersebut juga mengalami nasib yang sama dengan Kate Winslet. Salah satunya adalah Reese Witherspoon. Reese menerima Piala Oscar pada tahun 2006 sebagai Aktris Terbaik lewat perannya dalam film 'Walk The Line'.

Selang beberapa bulan setelah menerima piala bergengsi itu, Reese harus menghadapi kenyataan pahit dalam rumah tangganya. Pernikahannya dengan aktor Ryan Phillippe mengalami gejolak. Perceraian menjadi pilihan pasangan yang telah dikaruniai dua orang anak ini. Mereka bercerai pada November 2006.

Padahal, dalam pidatonya saat menerima Piala Oscar, Reese mengatakan Ryan adalah suami yang sangat mengagumkan. Dan dia sangat berterima kasih karena memiliki Ryan dalam hidupnya. Pasangan ini menikah pada tahun 1999 setekah keduanya terlibat cinta lokasi di film 'Cruel Intensions'.

Tak hanya Reese, rumah tangga Hillary Swank juga harus berakhir dengan perceraian setelah aktris ini menerima dua kali piala tersebut sebagai Aktris Terbaik dalam film 'Boys Don't Cry' dan Million Dollar Baby'. Tahun 2005, Hillary menerima Piala Oscar keduanya. Januari 2006, Hillary mengumumkan perceraiannya dengan sang suami, Chad. Saat ini, Hillary menjalin hubungan dengan agennya, John Campisi. Sedangkan Chad telah memiliki anak dari hubungannya dengan produser Kim Painter.

Hal serupa dialami oleh Charlize Theron dan pasangannya Stuart Townsend. Bedanya, Charlize dan aktor asal Irlandia itu belum terikat pernikahan. Pada saat menerima Piala Oscar tahun 2004 silam, Charlize mengatakan bila kekasihnya adalah orang yang sangat mendukungnya selama ini. Charlize menerima piala sebagai Aktris Terbaik dalam film 'Monster'.

Charlize harus mengubur impiannya untuk menikah dengan kekasihnya itu. Pasalnya, jalinan cintanya dengan Stuart tak bisa berlabuh di pelaminan. Kisah cinta dua sejoli itu berakhir di tahun 2010 ini.

Satu lagi artis yang harus bercerai setelah menerima Piala Oscar adalah Halle Berry. Aktris berkulit hitam ini menerima piala itu dari perannya di film 'Monster Ball' di tahun 2002. Pada saat itu, rumah tangganya dengan Eric Benet masih berjalan harmonis. Tetapi, di pertengahan tahun 2003, mulai terjadi gonjang-ganjing dalam pernikahan artis tersebut. Pada Oktober 2003, pasangan ini resmi bercerai.

Nasib yang sama juga menimpa rumah tangga aktris Helen Hunt dan Hank Azaria. Setelah menerima Piala Oscar pada tahun 1998 dalam film 'As Good As It Gets', pasangan ini menikah. Tetapi, pernikahan mereka tak berjalan mulus karena pada tahun 2000, keduanya pisah ranjang. Hank keluar dari rumah dan tinggal di sebuah hotel. Juni 2000, Helen dan Hank resmi bercerai. Kini keduanya memutuskan untuk menjadi sahabat.

Gwyneth Paltrow yang berhasil menerima Piala Oscar lewat film 'Shakespeare In Love'. Pada saat menerima piala itu, Maret 1999, Gwyneth terikat hubungan dengan aktor Ben Affleck. Dua bulan kemudian, jalinan cinta dua sejoli ini hanya tinggal kenangan.

Keduanya memilih untuk putus. Gwyneth yang sempat bertunangan dengan Brad Pitt akhirnya menikah dengan vokalis Coldplay, Chris Martin tahun 2003 silam. Sedangkan Ben Affleck sempat menjalin hubungan dengan Jennifer Lopez dan akhirnya menikah dengan Jennifer Garner tahun 2005 silam

Tak berbeda jauh dengan Gwyneth Paltrow, kisah cinta Julia Roberts dengan aktor Benjamin Bratt juga harus kandas di tengah jalan setelah aktris berambut keriting ini menerima Piala Oscar dalam film 'Erin Brockovich'.

Julia menerima piala itu pada Maret 2001 sebagai Aktris Terbaik. Sedangkan pada Juni di tahun yang sama, Julia dan Benjamin berpisah. Padahal, jalinan cinta pasangan itu telah terbina selama tiga tahun. Kini, Julia hidup bahagia bersama suaminya, Daniel Moder dan ketiga anak mereka.

BIRU Voice Akan Kembali Unjuk Rasa di Kedutaan Australia

Sungai Bawah Laut - Menindaklanjuti aksi unjuk rasa yang digelar Rabu, 10 Maret 2010 pukul 11.00 WIB kemarin, BIRU Voice melalui wakil mereka Makarius dan Marcel menegaskan bahwa apabila dalam minggu ini belum juga diperoleh penjelasan yang terbuka, maka minggu depan BIRU Voice akan kembali melakukan unjuk rasa di Kedutaan Australia, hingga apa yang diserukan oleh BIRU Voice mendapat tanggapan yang memenuhi rasa keadilan bagi masyarakat NTT yang terkena dampak langsung, serta perbaikan terhadap lingkungan dan ekosistem di wilayah yang terkena dampak pencemaran.

Video Sungai Bawah Laut - BIRU Voice adalah Lembaga Swadaya Masyarakat (NGO) yang menaruh kepedulian terhadap lingkungan hidup dan perubahan iklim (www.biruvoice.com). Memang hari Rabu, 10 Maret 2010 pukul 11.00 WIB kemarin, BIRU Voice melakukan unjuk rasa ke Kedutaan Australia di Indonesia untuk menyampaikan Seruan BIRU Voice terkait pencemaran lingkungan yang terjadi akibat meledaknya ladang minyak Montara di Celah Timor, Australia, pada tanggal 21 Agustus 2009.
(http://lautkita.blogspot.com/2010/01/tumpahan-minyak-montaracemari-laut.html).

Menurut Suryo Susilo, Ketua BIRU Voice, Ladang minyak Montara yang meledak tersebut, letaknya dekat dengan gugusan Pulau Pasir (ashmore reef) yang menjadi pusat pencarian ikan dan biota laut lainnya oleh nelayan tradisional Indonesia. Ladang minyak Montara dikelola oleh PTTEP Australasia, perusahaan minyak asal Thailand.
Muntahan ratusan ribu liter minyak mentah perhari yang menjadi akibat meledaknya ladang minyak Montara tersebut telah mencemari perairan Laut Timor dan lingkungan di sekitarnya, serta mengancam seluruh habitat yang berada di kawasan tersebut.

Faisal Saleh, Wakil Ketua BIRU Voice menambahkan, yang lebih memprihatinkan adalah adanya informasi bahwa akibat dari meledaknya ladang minyak Montara juga mengakibatkan luapan lumpur panas, yang fenomenanya mirip dengan kebocoran gas Lapindo, yaitu terjadi luapan lumpur panas (mud vulcano).

Menurut Makarius Wangge dan Marcel, aktivis dari NTT, dampak pencemaran tersebut telah dirasakan akibatnya oleh para nelayan dan petani rumput laut di Timor Barat, yaitu di perairan Rote Ndao dan Kabupaten Kupang, Nusa Tenggara Timur, Indonesia.

Sehubungan dengan itu, BIRU Voice menyampaikan SERUAN yang dialamatkan kepada Pemerintah Australia di Canberra, melalui Kedutaan Besar Australia di Jakarta, yang isinya sebagai berikut:
1. Agar pemerintah Australia lebih serius dalam penanganan dampak perusakan lingkungan di celah Timor akibat kebocoran ladang minyak Montara, yang merusak biota laut hingga ke wilayah Indonesia.
2. Agar pemerintah Australia lebih manusiawi dalam menangani para nelayan NTT yang akibat pencemaran terpaksa melaut dan memasuki wilayah Australia.
3. Agar PTPEP Australasia memberikan ganti rugi yang sepadan kepada nelayan dan petani rumput laut yang terkena dampak langsung akibat pencemaran di perairan Timor, serta melakukan perbaikan lingkungan yang terkena dampak pencemaran akibat kebocoran ladang minyak Montara.

Suryo Susilo menegaskan bahwa BIRU Voice meminta agar ada penjelasan yang terbuka dari Pemerintah Australia terhadap progres dari penanganan yang telah dilakukan terhadap dampak dari pencemaran lingkungan, yang telah merusak ekosistem di Celah Timor hingga ke wilayah perairan Indonesia. Hal ini diperlukan agar tidak terdapat kesimpang siuran informasi, termasuk informasi bahwa para nelayan dan petani rumput laut yang terkena dampak pencemaran belum mendapatkan ganti rugi yang memadai.

Faisal Saleh mengharapkan agar dalam agenda kunjungan presiden Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono ke Canberra juga membicarakan masalah yang mencemari lingkungan dan merugikan rakyat Indonesia, akibat dari meledaknya ladang minyak Montara di Celah Timor, Australia.
