Red Cards
Spoil Real's Progress Into Semis
Jakarta Post - January 25, 2013
Real Madrid survived red cards for Fabio
Coentrao and Angel Di Maria, and an injury to Iker Casillas when they played
against Valencia in King's Cup. The injury to Spain's number one didn't appear
to be too serious as he was later seen in the dugout with ice on his hand. Di
Maria picked up red card two minutes from time. Before that, Coentrao picked up
the second yellow card too. This match was held on January 25 in Mestalla,
Valencia. It was a big problem for Real Madrid. because they will face either
holder Barcelona or Malaga in the last four.
Reflection
Real Madrid is one of giant club in the
world. So I think they can solve this problem easily. Casillas, Di Maria, and
Coentrao are three of so many talented players in Real Madrid. As we know that
Real Madrid has so many talented players in bench that could substitute missed
players such as Kaka', Higuain, Marcelo, etc. Because of that, I'm pretty sure
that they will not get any problems.
The real problem is they will face either
holder Barcelona or Malaga in the last four. Malaga is giant-killers and
Barcelona is superior club in the world now. Join Mourinho should rotate squad
in the Spanish League if they wanna win in King's Cup Semifinal.
Real Madrid is good in all sectors.
Although Casillas missed next two month, Real Madrid still has Antonio Adan. He
is wonder kid player. They must change attacking composition. Kaka' is super
sub player who dictates tempo perfectly as he played in AC Milan.

The best way to catch the sunrise is by
going high up in the sky in a hot air ballon. Located in the northeast coast of
Australia. The flights usually take place early in the morning because ballon
need cool, stable winds to operate effectively. The spacious ballon basket can
use for 16 passangers. There, there is also The Daintree rainforest is one of
the world's oldest rainforest. The rainforest attracts about 1 million visitors
from all over the world every year. The Daintree rainforest in a place for
Australia's plants and animals during the past 400 million years. Not only
that, in Australia there is The Great Barrier Reef. It is an uderwater delight,
offering a beautiful of marine life. We can diving in the
sea and see the colorful coral like brilliant yellow, pastel pink, mint green,
and intense blue. The adventure in Australia gives tourist a perfect reason to
visit again.
Reflection:
The tour destination in Australia is
really amazing. If I am the tourist, I will not get bored because when we ride
the hot air ballon, we can see the beautiful rainforest and marine life. The
hot air ballons are really big with kangroo, koala, and nemo fish picture in
the ballon. For the tourists who ride the hot air ballon for the first time,
they may feel afraid but when they are already in the air, they can enjoy the
scenery.
The Great Barrier Reef is really
beautiful. We can do snorkeling and see the beautiful coral and fish in the
sea. It’s good for tourists who want to get rid of their stress or bored. We
can also go to the Daintree raintforest. There are so many kinds of of plants
and animals. The athmosphere is fresh around the big trees.
If I can go to Australia, I will travel
around the northeast coast of Australia and try to ride the hot air ballon, to
dive in The Great Barrier Reef, and to explore the Daintree rainforest. This is
one of all amazing adventures I had ever known.

Jokowi to Control Weather with Rocket
Jakarta Post,23 January 2013
Governor Joko Widodo “Jokowi”
appears to have opted for weather engineering technology to divert the intense
rains. According to meteorology and geophysics expert Armi Susandi from Bandung
Institute of Technology, can be done by using hygroscopic substances to encourage
clouds to form. It can be achieved by means of a small rocket,he said. And,
Jokowi insisted that his administration had a long-term solution the perennial
problem. He acknowledged that flooding in Jakarta
was not an easy problem to handle. He said that,flooding is a very complicated
issue. The Dutch had plans to build 300 dams and lakes, but there are only 30
in existence today. Peat swamps, forests and green areas are now housing
complexes, malls and suchlike. You want to demolish them? You can’t. They have
permits. Jokowi can do nothing but be more strict with builders and planners.
Reflection :
In my opinion, Jokowi’s idea is
excellent. Because, the flood that always happens in Jakarta is very difficult to solve.
Actually, some solution had been tried to solve that
problem, But, it’s not enough. The rain always comes every year. And perhaps
that Jokowi’s idea to make a rocket to control the weather in Jakarta can help to solve that one. Altough, that
solution is difficult to make and needs a long time. I think, it will better to
find another solution to make it efficient. Such as, make more dams to
accommodate the rains. And Jokowi more coherent with the builder in Jakarta, so there is some
space to absorb the rain and the space for reboisation. And than enlarge the diameter
of the aqueduct in Jakarta in order to the water of the rain can emit a stream of at ease. And Jokowi gives more
socialization to the society about throwing away the rubbish its place.
