Pakistan Causes Youtube Outage

This article actually tells about Pakistan that block access to the youtube website, unfortunately, that cause power lost in two-thirds of a global internet population.
The reason of Pakistan to block the access to youtube is because of anti-Islamic movies, and also the videos that will provoke people to have misconception about Islam. So why could this affect to the worldwide access? The first mistake is from Pakistan Telecom, which is they asked request to the international data carrier, PCCW Ltd. of Hong Kong to a block hole. They should be made request to a local data carrier, not to international data carrier. The second mistake came from international data carrier, PCCW Ltd. of Hong Kong that accepted that request.

So, in my opinion it is true that sometimes in websites there are movies or information that leads to the racism, especially about religions. So, I can understand why Pakistan government wants to block access to site that provides racism. However, for doing this they must have right knowledge and careful about procedure to make a request, because the later effect was caused to the worldwide access outage. PCCW Ltd. OF Hong Kong as international data carrier needs to review again before they finally accept a request, so it was a big mistake they made I think websites also have important roles to filter the information, so it is not lead people to have a misconception about something, the things like religion is sensitive to talk, and it is better to avoid that. In my knowledge youtube as a big website already had filter to things about pornography; however, I think in the future they must have filters too about violence and racism. Even though they asking for confirmation ages of users before access that, it’s not really useful because even a child can give the wrong information. I believe it needs more tight filters to access that. The most important things is from users, they must have responsibility before post a videos or even information about racism, violence, or pornography because it’s not only just shown to their community or people in the same interest, but

Living in the USA

My life is changing a lot since I moved to America from my country, Indonesia. Actually many new things I have been learning in here. Firstly, about language and culture: this is very different from my native country. In the US people is more free to speak their taught or opinion. Before I came here, I heard that some people in the US are racist; however I don’t feel that especially in California. There is many people came from different nations around the world and they’re respect one and each other. I get a new experience not only in the language and the culture, but also in my habit. In my country, I used to depend on other person to finish it my job for example cleaning a room, washing dress, or cooking food. But in here I must do everything by myself, so I have to manage between school and daily works. Secondly, adjustment is in the school. Before I study in ALP, I studied in college in Houston and then I studied TOEFL in language course. The fact that I found interesting is the way teachers teach student which is a little bit different, they’re more communicative to students, and they give a lot of homework. However, I think is helpful for students to improve their skills. Finally I can say that living in America is not only interesting because I have learn many new things, but also challenging because I have targets that I have to reach in the future.

About Love

Love is the deepest feeling to someone who is very special. However love is not always about good things, sometimes it can be hurt too. In a relationship we also need have respect, sacrifice, faith, and loyalty to prove our feeling. So for me, love is the best we can give to someone with our pure heart. However I still don’t have a perfect love in my life. The person would be my perfect love is she should love me the way I am, loyal, and belief in the same God. She doesn’t have to beautiful, but at least she is a good looking. In addition, maybe she must love my family too. Deal breaker for me if she cheats to another man, it’s mean she doesn’t love and give respect to me. Fortunately I never have this kind of experience. Talk about valentine it reminds me to my ex-girlfriend, the one and only until now, because our relationship broke in February 2004. Although she is not perfect, she means a lot to me. I learn many things from her and she is still my best friend until now. For now, my valentine is for my family and all my friends. I hope one day I can find someone who will be my soul mate. So HAPPY VALENTINE everyone…

Daily Titan

I have read the article, and I feel impress with it. For many students they thought that studying in the university would be their best time in their live, it's not always true. However it is also possible to be happened as long as students follow the rules. From the article I got some new knowledges about studying in the university, for example how to survive and how to manage time among study, family, and friends. For some students they also deal with work.It's no doubt that we must spend at least 3 hours each day to study at home if we want to get a good grade, however the article said that we must study 3 hours if we want to 4.00 in GPA. So we must have a commitment and also self-control to manage ourselves. I'm not wonder when read the highest rate of dropout come from freshment students, because they must adjust their lifestyle when they study in the university. In fact, we know it is not as easy as we thought, but the article have taught us that we must have a goal to achieve so we will keep motivated in studying. The article about the art of mastery also give me some idea about how to keep focus, so when we pass through all circumstances in relationship with family or friends will not affected us. Finally, according to the article, I can say "You do your part ... the sky's the limit."
