"tugas_10" JYP Responds to Wonder Girls Sunye’s Diss


JYP responded to Wonder Girls member Sunye’s diss.
On June 13, JYP attended the “5 Million-Dollar Man” movie show case in Seoul during which he was asked about Wonder Girls’ Sunye’s comments. He began by saying, “Recently, Wonder Girls Sunye confessed  saying that she did not want me to put JYP in their songs anymore. If that’s the case, they should look for songs written by other composers.”
During the latest broadcast of KBS 2TV’s “Gag Concert” Sun Ye expressed her feelings directly to the CEO, “Please do not put ‘JYP’ in our songs.” Her statement caused ‘Sun Ye disses JYP’ to rise in interest among netizens as it became one of the top searched for terms on the Internet.
“Fortunately for me, this time JYP was left out of their song,” he replied with a laugh as he was referring to the Wonder Girls newly released hit “Like This.”
JYP will make his big screen debut in the film, “5 Million-Dollar Man.” The movie’s premise focuses on a CEO (portrayed by JYP) who discovers that a director is trying to kill him for the sum of five million dollars. Upon hearing this the department head steals five million dollars and flees. “5 Million-Dollar Man” will be released on July 19.

JYP is a funny man, really. although he is a ceo sometimes he act like a child, like his responds to sunye. i mean which ceo will do something like this other than JYP? 
i like the JYP whisper, it's sounds mysterious. it's good he didn't put in the whisper in wonder girls newest song "like this" it wouldn't match. the whisper is mysterious and "like this" is a fun, hip-hop, ear candy song. good JYP! not every song match your whisper.

"tugas_9" Kim Soo Hyun’s fan clubs donated total of 1.5 tons of rice


On June 12, upcoming film “Thieves” held a press conference in Seoul, Korea. Actors, actresses, journalists, and other staff members who arrived at the site were greeted by a large amount of rice. It was gifted by Kim Soo Hyun‘s fan clubs, Yukaris Daum Fan Cafeand DC Inside Kim Soo Hyun Gallery.
Kim Soo Hyun’s fan clubs donated total of 1.5 tons of rice, which is enough to feed approximately 12,400 starving children. This rice will be donated to individuals and/or organizations Kim Soo Hyun and his fan clubs choose. Netizens commented, “Kim Soo Hyun fan clubs’ rice donation is amazing,” “They got a lot of rice together,” “It’s good to see a celebrity and his fan club leading a good cause,” and “This would be the perfect example of ‘good fan culture.’”
Meanwhile, the movie “Thieves,” which portrays the grand scheme of professional thieves from Korea and China to steal a rare diamond, “The Tear of the Sun,” will be coming to theaters on July 25.

wow kim soo hyun's fans club so kind, 1.5 tons of rice can help many of the hungers. rather than give foods to the artist that is not sure he will eat them and wasting the food this is a good way to show an adoration. kim soo hyun must be so proud to  have such kind fans.
i saw kim soo hyun's acting, he is natural at it. his acting didn't look awkward at all. this movie "thieves" sounds good especially with kim soo hyun in it. as one of kim soo hyun's fans who didn't participate in this charity (ups!). i'm looking forward to his movie "thieves" i imagine this movie may like ocean 13 but the korean version ?

"tugas_8" iPhone 5 news and rumours


iPhone 5 form factor

Unlike the iPhone 4S, the new iPhone will be a completely new design from what has gone before, so that means an entirely new casing as we saw with the iPhone 3G and, later, the iPhone 4.
Beatweek also claimed in November 2011 that the 5-inch was scrapped "because Apple wouldn't be able to do it properly" this year. However, the Daily Mail (make of that what you will) then suggested that a four-inch version was likely and that Sony has already shipped top secret demo screens to Apple.Interestingly, someone who claimed to have seen a larger iPhone 5 prototype said in November 2011 that Steve Jobs canned the new size and opted for the iPhone 4S.According to Business Insider, it was feared that a new size would create a two-tier iPhone ecosystem.
The Taipei Times reported at the end of May 2012 that Stone Wu, senior analyst at IHS Displaybank, reckons Sony began production of in-cell touch panels back in February, as it readied stock for the next generation of iPhone.

iPhone 5 specs

Based on the roadmap of mobile chip design specialist ARM (of which Apple is a licensee), we'll see a quad-core processor debut in the new iPhone 5 - probably called the Apple A6. We've seen other quad core handsets debut in 2012, so it's not too much of a stretch to say that the iPhone 5 will be the same.In terms of other specs aside from the screen (more on that below), rumours are persisting that the iPhone 5 may have anew dock connector. Well, it had to happen sometime didn't it?We had expected some kind of help in terms of predicting the iPhone 5 CPU from the launch of the new iPad, but the announcement of a slightly tweaked A5X processor really didn't help things there.

iPhone 5 will have 4G/LTE support

After the new iPad's launch brought 4G to an Apple device, it's widely expected that 4G will come to iPhone 5. And with many 4G handsets already announced in the US, it can't be long before the iPhone supports 4G technologies - even if we won't even have a UK spectrum auction until late this year or maybe early next.
Because of the 4G fuss over the new iPad in the UK, we'd expect this to be played down in any UK handset - or the UK might get a different version entirely of course.

Steve Jobs' iPhone 5 legacy

Many sites have reported that Steve Jobs was working hard on the iPhone 5 project, which will apparently be a "radical redesign". We shall see... but the fact the iPhone 4S was so similar to the iPhone 4 suggests that Steve was working on something pretty special before

iPhone is a dream phone for everyone, nobody do not want an iPhone. it's work well, high tech and more importantly, simple. iPhone is simple from it's design to it's user friendly display. even an old man who do not know much about technology can use it easily that's how much simple an iPhone is. so much speculation for iPhone 5 because this iPhone 5 is the last work of steve jobs.

i need to work hard if i want an iPhone because it's not cheap. iPhone worth the price though to me. i've seen my friend iPhone and it's amazing, it's blow my mind. from it's design to everything. i bet iPhone 5 would be really amazing.  

"tugas_7" Park keen to stay at Man United


Manchester United's South Korean midfielder Park Ji-Sung has expressed his desire to stay on at the English Premier League giantsdespite an uncertain future at Old Trafford.
"It's true that I said I want to retire at United," the 31-year-old told reporters on his arrival in South Korea on Thursday.
"But what I want does not always translate to reality. It becomes more feasible when the whole situation clicks."
Park finished the season with United, Premier League runners-up to rivals Manchester City, without a medal for the first time since he joined the club in 2005.
He appeared in 17 league matches and scored just twice, sparking speculation that he could leave.
Park, entering the final year of his contract, admitted he had a disappointing season.
"But I want to forget the past and think about what I have to do in the future," he said. "I do not have time to think about next season. I need to rest mentally and physically."

park ji sung is the first asian who play for europe club, i adore him for that. it must have been hard to be where he is now. i already saw him play he is good, real good. he is fast and has a good stamina which is why he has a nickname "three lungs"  and he is good at controlling the ball. it's too bad if he is sold to another club when all he want is retire at united. he is so underrated even ronaldo admitted it. ronaldo said he is good yet underrated, he said nobody underestimate him on the field.
i like his calmness when he play soccer maybe that's why he is good, calmness help to make a good decision. he is on a break right now and back to korea. i saw him in this variety show called "running man" surprisingly he is funny! i like him. not only he is funny he so down to earth. such a good man!

"tugas_6" Gomez scores 2 to give Germany 2-1 win over Dutch


KHARKIV, Ukraine (AP) Mario Gomez scored two first-half goals Wednesday to give Germany a 2-1 win over the Netherlands in one of the most anticipated showdowns of the European Championship.
Robin van Persie pulled one back for the Netherlands in the second half but the defeat left the 2010 World Cup runner-up on the brink of elimination.
''Early on we had decent chances but the German goals came out of nowhere,'' Netherlands coach Bert van Marwijk said. ''We defended badly. Our offense and defense did not connect.
''Germany really has an excellent team. It has power, creativity and scoring.''
Germany has six points from two wins but is still not sure of advancing from Group B, where three teams could end up with six points. Earlier, Portugal beat Denmark 3-2.
The Netherlands, along with Germany considered one of the favorites but drawn into a tough group, now has lost both of its group games and needs to beat Portugal to have a hope. Germany will need only a draw against Denmark to win the group.
Gomez put Germany ahead in the 24th minute after collecting a pass from Bastian Schweinsteiger at the edge of the penalty area and turning between two Dutch defenders, who were betting on an offside call. But Gregory van der Wiel failed to move forward quickly enough and Gomez had a simple task in slotting pastMaarten Stekelenburg.
Stekelenburg made a stunning reflex save to stop Holger Badstuber's header from a free kick cross from Mesut Oezil from point-blank range in the 37th, but one minute later he was beaten again.
Gomez and Schweinsteiger outplayed the Dutch defense with two simple moves. Gomez passed to the ball to Schweinsteiger, who immediately played it into space for Gomez and the striker slotted inside the far post.
Gomez went off in the 72nd minute and was replaced by Miroslav Klose - but one minute later Van Persie finally found the target for the Dutch, driving home from the edge of the box in the 73rd.
The Dutch perked up, then, but even the later insertion of a fourth Dutch striker, Dirk Kuyt, did not produce the equalizer.
''The time just wouldn't pass, it remained standing,'' said Gomez, who also scored the only goal in Germany's opening 1-0 win over Portugal. ''They were pressing. It was close until the end but withManuel Neuer in goal we can be a bit more relaxed.
Despite a sweltering evening with the temperature 84 degrees at kickoff, both teams went into the match at high pace and Van Persie missed a couple of early chances.
''The beginning was good enough but it was not good enough,'' said Netherlands captain Mark van Bommel, who had a poor game and was substituted at halftime. ''We had imagined all of this very differently.''
Gomez displayed clinical finishing when it mattered and the Dutch appeared shell-shocked as they went in for the halftime break.
By then, the German fans at the Metalist Stadium were already singing, ''Aufwiedersehen, aufwiedersehen'' - the bye-bye chant of scorn for the Dutch team and its orange-clad fans.

when i first saw gomez, selena gomez come to my mind haha. i know they don't related just his name is the same with selena gomez the singer. gomez played well last night i like the way he play it's smooth. although he is not as good looking as ronaldo he is good at playing soccer. more importantly he displayed clinical finishing when it mattered. gomez is like varela on german team. 
the german team is played well too, i like the cooperation between Gomez and Schweinsteiger.  goodluck for the next game german!

"tugas_5" Cristiano Ronaldo bailed out in win over Denmark


An epic choke in front of goal from Cristiano Ronaldo was forgiven on Wednesday as the world's most expensive player's blushes were spared by a teammate who cost absolutely nothing.
Ronaldo, who Real Madrid bought from Manchester United in 2009 for a world record $131 million transfer fee, could not disguise his disbelief as he missed the simplest of chances when completely unmarked just a few yards from the net in Portugal's crucial Euro 2012 clash with Denmark.
When Portugal, having already lost its first game to Germany, conceded a goal just moments later to level scores at 2-2, the team – captained by Ronaldo – was in danger of being pushed to the brink of elimination.
Cristiano Ronaldo reacts after missing one of his easy scoring chances. (AP)However, with just three minutes remaining in this Group B contest in Lviv, Ukraine, forward Silvestre Varela unleashed a ferocious strike to provide one of the goals of the tournament so far and a much-needed lifeline for Portugal, the world's fifth-ranked team.
Varela has long been regarded as a promising young player but has had a checkered career and has bounced around six different clubs. When he was transferred to Portuguese league club Porto in 2009 from Estrela Amadora, no fee changed hands.
Ronaldo, meanwhile, has accumulated tens of millions in wages and established himself, alongside Lionel Messi, as one of the two best players in the world. If another team wanted to buy Ronaldo out of his Real Madrid contract, the price would be a staggering $1.25 billion.
He will find it hard to live down his performance on Wednesday, though, especially the moment in the 78th minute that was the low point of his afternoon. Ronaldo was sent completely clear on goal with only Stefan Anderson to beat. As the Denmark goalkeeper went to the ground, all Ronaldo had to do was dribble the ball around him and tap it into the empty net. Instead, he inexplicably booted it with his right foot and steered it wide of the target.
Portugal had gone into a two-goal lead in the first half thanks to goals from Pepe and Helder Postiga, before Niklas Bendtner pulled one back for Denmark just before the break. Bendtner struck again with a headed goal almost immediately after Ronaldo's dreadful miss, aided by some poor goalkeeping from Portugal's Rui Patricio.
A draw would have done Portugal little good and left it needing to beat the Netherlands in its final match to stand any chance of progressing to the quarterfinals. Varela's stunning drive changed all that, as the 27-year-old, who had only been on the field for three minutes after coming on a substitute, first whiffed on a cross from the left before recovering his composure exquisitely and smashing home a right-footed effort that left Anderson with no chance.
Victory for Portugal over the Netherlands, who are struggling to match their performance in reaching the 2010 World Cup final, should be enough to secure a place in the last eight, depending on how Denmark performs against Germany.
Yet Ronaldo's displays will continue to come under scrutiny, especially with that uncharacteristic missed chance certain to be replayed time and again over the next few days.
"We should have killed the game off earlier," Portugal coach Paulo Bento grumbled. "We had enough chances."

Ronaldo i surely paid well, $131 million is so much. he must be embarrassed, it's okay ronaldo everybody make mistakes! but i think your price is going down next season. ronaldo is famous for his playboy image, is he to busy dating than practicing ?  so many people said he is handsome but not to me but again, his skill in soccer is well recognized by many people so i guess he is real good, just not last night.
last night i'm impressed by varela on portugal last goal. he missed the ball one then run for it and then made the goal, that is impressive. i don't know why is he underrated when he is play well. good job varela!

"Tugas_4" Mammoths Wiped Out By Multiple Killers


Woolly mammoths were apparently driven to extinction by a multitude of culprits, with climate change, human hunters and shifting habitats all playing a part in the long decline of these giants, researchers say.
Woolly mammoths (Mammuthus primigenius) wandered the planet for about 250,000 years, ranging from Europe to Asia to North America covered in hair up to 20 inches (50 centimeters) long and possessing curved tusks up to 16 feet (4.9 meters) long. Nearly all of these giants vanished from Siberia by about 10,000 years ago, although dwarf mammoths survived on Wrangel Island in the Arctic Ocean until 3,700 years ago.
Scientists have often speculated over what might have driven the mammoths to extinction. For instance, for years researchers suspected that ancient human tribes hunted the mammoths andother ice age giants to oblivion. Others have suggested that a meteor strike might have drastically altered the climate in North America about 12,900 years ago, wiping out most of the large mammals there, the so-called "Younger Dryas impact hypothesis."
Now an analysis of thousands of fossils, artifacts and environmental sites spanning millennia suggest that no one killer is to blame for the demise of the woolly mammoths.

i never seen the real mammoths but i guess its look like an elephant only its way bigger than elephant . in the end no scientist can explain why mammoths wiped out. some said it was climate change, some said it was shifting habitats, some even said it was ancient human tribes hunted. i just can imagine human hunting an mammoth, i mean it's big, strong and scary. i would run if i see a real mammoth, i will be so afraid it step on me like human stepping on an ant. the ancient human must be so brave to hunted it.
there also a scientist that said mammoths wiped out because of meteor strike that drastically altered the climate. well it might be possible. if the meteor strike can wiped out mammoths what will it done to us? i hope no meteor strike come on earth. rest in peace mammoths..

"Tugas_3" Let's Pizza to Debut Pizza Vending Machine in U.S. This Year


Vending machines aren't just for a bag of chips and soda anymore. A vending machine that makes fresh pizza to order will debut in the U.S. this year after its popularity in Europe.
The Amsterdam-based company A1 concepts began distributing the machine, created by Italian Claudio Torghel, in Europe three years ago.
For $5.97, the vending machine serves up a 10.5 inch pizza with a choice of margherita, pepperoni, ham or bacon.  The dough is made fresh, assembled per order and boxed in about 2 1/2 minutes.  Infrared ovens allow the pizza to cook quickly, CEO Ronald Rammers told Pizza Marketplace. 
"Each pizza machine is connected to the Internet to control stock. If necessary, besides the standard services, the operator will (re-stock). Each pizza machine contains ingredients for 200 pizzas," said Rammers.
A separate slot in the machine dispenses a pizza cutter and napkins. 

i would love to feel the sensation of getting my pizza from a vending machine, i think it's cool. if i hungry and then go tho the nearest pizza vending machine put in my money and wait for only 2 1/2 minutes that will be great.  this machine work so fast, it's only 2 1/2 minutes! faster than the time i spend in restaurant. the time it spend to make a pizza is even faster than make a pop mie! and it's cheap. if i'm not wrong it's about Rp. 55.000. it's quite big too i can split the bill and share with my friends although i would like to eat the whole pizza myself.
too bad this vending machine U.S only. people in U.S are so lucky to have this machine. can't wait until it available in indonesia.
