Stuffs Online

With this age of open accessible information. It isn't that hard to find everything about a subject online. All it take is a single effort of opening your browser, be it on a smart phone or on a PC/Laptop. A quick type of a keyword, a single click, voila! All the information you need!?

But wait, as easy it is for someone to find something online. It is as easy to actually post something too! Everything, from a simple opinion, to garbage of utter nonsense! People can actually post anything they want with any title they please without any filter whatsoever!

I had a friend who wanted to find a (pirated?) novel online. She clicked and browse through a couple dozen websites, and found nothing but trash, spams, unrelated ads, and even, a downloader for a toolbar of God knows what!

I'm not making any points here, just some random rants. But, somebody, somewhere need to do something about this. All these trashes online are actually dangerous! Who knows what kind of demonic evil thing waiting just a click away?

It is not just us innocent  goodlooking responsible adults who use the All Mighty Internet. There are kids, pedophiles, CIA, aliens, and robots (Why else do we need captcha to verify our humaities?). Someone need to do something, without compromising our freedom of course.

how I feel about writing

writ·ing ˈrÄ«diNG/ noun 1 . the activity or skill of marking coherent words on paper and composing text. "parents want schools to concentrate on reading, writing, and arithmetic" Hello everyone! (like anyone would read this anyway!). It has been a long time since I posted anything here. Man, I even forgot the URL for this! haha!. I think my writing skills also dropped a few levels. You see, I've been observing what has been happening all around me for the past two years. I even took a peek at some foreign issues ( I was only focusing on the Middle East back then, I now look at some things in Europe and US too). I peeked at some writings that are floating around the internet and printed materials (for my research on global issues), and found something interesting: Most of them are basing their sources on a rather unreliable source: blogs and opinion articles! So I did some research on the matter (obviously). What I found was even sho...

Shorinjiryu Kenkokan Karate -- love at second punch!

It all began when I got a text from a friend of mine which sounded a bit like "Hey! There will be a Karate Instructor willing coming here on Saturday!" which got me all exited! I then spent 6 hours trying to figure out who and from what Ryuha he is. Late at night, I got a reply that stated that an instructor named Hisataka Hiroshi will be instructing. Without delay I then googled the name up and trying to find any information about him and whatever information correlated to him. Well, what I found is rather intriguing: an Okinawan Karate Instructor, holding 6th dan (later I found out, he is actually an 8th) with a surname similar to the founder of the style: Hisataka Kori , I'm guessing he is the grandson (and heard about it too!), but I haven't found any information to verify this. I tried to contact my karate friends, but all of them are too scared or embarrassed to come. So in the end I text-ed my Aikido buddies, and one of them is excited to come an...

Berlatar pada tahun 1932 saat Jepang menguasai Manchuria, beberapa oknum militer Jepang mulai menggusur dojo-dojo karate untuk kepentingan mereka sendiri.

Film ini dibintangi tiga orang yang merupakan praktisi karate di kehidupan nyata mereka.
