Hot News in July

Well for the last week, following the World Cup 2006 Final, there are two news that flood the mailist (This is the result of scanning and deleting a lot of email). First news is the Zidane butt-head attack to Materazzi, which made the referre had to give him red card. That news is even bigger than the news of Italian as the World Cup Champion for 2006. This year World Cup gave a lot of nice football games (Every World Cup, I'm always wondering when Indonesian Team will qualified for the World Cup). So, it is beautiful world cup, with the exception of a lot of cards produce in those games.

Second news is about Nadine English proficiency, hehehhehe. People just stormed her from any angle. Well, I tend to take her side, in the sense that she is a miss universe contestant. So, I don't care whether she can't speak english properly, or whether she is a whore for that matter, she is a miss universe from Indonesia, and I'm proud of her participation in the contest. I really hope she can win the crown (heheheh, just wistfull thinking, Miss Universe from Indonesia, that's cool huh, at least for one year the universe centered in Indonesia). So, I'm looking forward to watch the final in 23rd of July 2006, live from NBC. Go Indonesia!!! These support also goes for people who compete in the international level for Indonesia, I think there is science competition going on somewhere.

Other troubling news is the earthquake and Tsunami in West Java and Jakarta. Gosh, I thought after the great tsunami attack in Aceh and North Sumatera, people will try to put some warning system, or something. If we can't predict the earthquake, at least give us some warning or some information for natural disaster emergency activities, so people can prepare if, God forbid, natural disaster occur. Now, I try to find some warning or some possibility of earth quake, but I can only find from US Geological Survey and Thailand Natural Disaster Warning. The death toll at this time is more than 100. My pray goes with all the victims.

On the local news, I just got my cigarettes from Lele, hueheheh. That is good news. Oh I almost forgot, Welcome to Urbana-Champaign for Lele, hehhehehe. Have a nice life here.

NB: I hope nobody is annoyed with my english, because Nadine's discussion lower my confidence (heheheheh, minderan nih).
