Film Paling Ditunggu 2013


Star Trek Into Darkness (blog.zap2it.com)
harianjogja.com- Tahun 2012 sempat diwarnai sejumlah film menarik yang berhasil meraup keuntungan di box office. Sementara pada 2013 nanti, kabarnya juga akan dipenuhi oleh berbagai film yang paling ditunggu. Jika dilihat, beberapa film tersebut merupakan film sekuel, film bertema fantasi, dan tentu saja film aksi.
Berikut ini 10 film paling ditunggu di tahun 2013.
1. Iron Man 3
Sejak kemunculannya, film Iron Man yang dibintangi Robert Downey Jr. ini, berhasil meraih sukses di box office. Maka tak heran jika sekuel ketiga film ini jadi salah satu film yang paling dinantikan. Sedikit bocoran saja, di sekuel ini aktor kawakan Ben Kingsley akan berperan menjadi tokoh jahat yang melawan Iron Man.
2. Man Of Steel
Kisah Superman memang selalu menarik untuk diangkat ke film. Namun yang membuat film ini berbeda adalah sutradara Zack Snyder yang sukses mengarahkan film 300 dan Watchmen, sehingga bisa dipastikan film ini tidak akan mirip dengan film superhero lainnya. Selain itu, Christopher Nolan, sutradara The Dark Knight Trilogy, juga ikut sebagai produser film ini.
3. Star Trek Into Darkness
Sejak lama, film Star Trek selalu ditunggu-tunggu oleh para penggemarnya. Dalam film ini, sutradara J.J. Abrams akan kembali menghadirkan Chris Pine sebagai Kapten James Kirk dan Zachary Quinto sebagai Spock. Sementara itu, aktor serial televisi Sherlock, Benedict Cumberbatch, juga akan berakting di film ini.
4. The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug
Para pencinta film The Hobbit tampaknya harus menunggu cukup lama untuk menonton sekuelnya, yang diperkirakan baru akan dirilis pada Desember 2013 mendatang. Masih dengan cerita seputar petualangan tokoh Bilbo Baggins bersama kelompok kurcaci, film ini dipastikan menghadirkan cerita menarik seperti film pertamanya.
5. Gangster Squad
Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, dan Sean Penn akan turut membintangi film yang bercerita tentang usaha polisi melawan komplotan gangster. Dengan mengambil setting pada tahun 1940-1950an, film ini menawarkan aksi sekaligus drama percintaan.
6. Monsters University
Para pencinta film animasi, pasti akan senang mendengar bahwa sekuel film Monsters Inc akan dirilis pada 2013 mendatang. Meski film ini adalah sekuel, tapi cerita yang diambil justru membawa penonton ke masa sepuluh tahun sebelum Monsters Inc terbentuk.
7. The Wolverine
Hugh Jackman kembali berperan sebagai Logan atau Wolverine, seorang mutan dan salah satu anggota X-Men. Dalam film ini akan dikisahkan mengenai perjalanan Logan ke Jepang, di mana dia bertemu dengan sosok misterius dari masa lalunya.
8. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
Diadaptasi dari novel berjudul sama, film ini akan mengisahkan kelanjutan dari kisah Katniss Everdeen dan Peeta Mellark setelah memenangkan The Hunger Games. Konflik mulai terjadi ketika Katniss terpaksa masuk lagi ke dalam arena permainan tersebut, sebuah permainan yang mengharuskan semua orang saling membunuh untuk mendapatkan satu pemenang. Setelah sukses bertahan di box office selama lima minggu, bisa dipastikan sekuel film The Hunger Games ini akan kembali meraih kesuksesan yang sama.
9. OZ: The Great And Powerful
Film yang dibintangi oleh James Franco, Mila Kunis, dan Michelle Williams ini menjadi salah satu film yang paling ditunggu, terutama bagi para pencinta cerita fantasi. Film ini juga menjanjikan sinematografi yang indah dan pastinya akan memanjakan mata.
10. Pacific Rim
Sutradara Guillermo del Toro yang terkenal berkat film Hellboy, kembali lagi dengan menghadirkan film fiksi ilmiah berjudul Pacific Rim. Film ini akan bercerita tentang pertarungan antara monster dan robot yang dibuat oleh manusia untuk melawannya.

review IMO TAB Z3


Tak heran IMO menjadi produsen tablet lokal paling banyak peminatnya, kenapa? Selain karena memang variasi produk tabletnya yang cukup banyak, dari seri X sampai seri Z. Dan yang sekarang sedang banyak sekali peminatnya adalah IMO Tab Z5.
Kali ini kita akan membahas adik kandung dari Tab Z5 yaitu Tab Z3, tablet dengan OS Android Froyo yang bisa telpon namun dengan pilihan harga yang lebih murah dari kakak kandungnya. Secanggih apa Tab Z3 ini mari kita bahas.
Dalam website resminya IMO mengatakan bahwa X3 dan X5, memang secara desain sangatlah mirip namun kemampuan jelas lebih canggih Z3 karena memiliki kemampuan menelpon pada jaringan GSM 900/1800.

Tab Z3 pun dibekali hardware yang cukup bisa diperhitungkan diantaranya layar capacitive touchscreen sebesar 7 inchi dengan resolusi 800 x 480 pixel juga prosesor dengan speed 800 Mhz membuat kita puas menikmati luasnya permukaan tablet dan kelincahan akselerasi prosesor.

advantages and disadvantage of windows Vista

KEKURANGAN DAN KELEBIHAN WINDOWS VISTA
After a long wait, new service pack has finally arrived, as a new year’s gift to Microsoft’s windows customers cum lovers. Windows Vista is perhaps the major update to the Windows family of operating systems, after a long gap of around five years.

The operating system comes up with rich set of features. There are some distinct advantages and disadvantages of vista over XP. The operating system also has some advantages and some sort of disadvantages.

Windows Vista Advantages:

1. Improved Graphical User Interface, the Aero:

There is an entire new GUI for Windows Vista. The appearance of window, desktop, start button, start menu, taskbar, everything got a new look. Now, the window in Windows Vista looks similar to that of in Mac OSX. Minimize, maximize and the close buttons wore an entire new strange look. The windows can be made to appear in translucent, 3D modes, if the new Aero is applied. The start button has been modified to give a new look. The word “start” has been removed. Only the new Windows logo gets appear in start button. Start menu also got a new look. The desktop wallpapers got a new look too. The desktop contains a side bar, which shows a clock, and some of the widgets. Widgets are small programs, which is equivalent to standard short cuts.

2. Surf the net, without much worry about security

Browsing the net, without any security measures invites a major danger. Windows Vista enable one provide high level of security measures. Windows Vista has come with a latest version of Internet Explorer which is version 7.0. This provides a higher degree of security to the system, as well as, the operating system environment. It also warns strictly against visiting some fake sites. It includes phishing filter to provide higher security while surfing the net. Protection against spamming is also provided. The other security measures include tools such as Windows defender, advanced firewall, Encryption/Decryption of data, support for NTFS partitions, auto backup. The Windows Defender is a program which blocks suspicious programs which tries to do some illegal activity in the computer system. Advanced firewall provides security to both incoming and outgoing data.

3. Manage your knotty kids, using parental controls:

One can control kids by using parental controls in Windows Vista. Parents can now deny access to certain programs especially, the games. Through separate child account, parents can now keep track of what all activities done by the child. It also enables parents to control the activities by blocking certain activities such as running a game program, blocking some sites that, the child might have visited etc. For this to work, parent must setup separate account for the child with different password.

4. Play multimedia contents using latest media player:

The latest version of Windows Media Player bundled with Windows Vista. The Windows Media Player 11 enhances video, audio quality when playing sound, music, videos. It has got new look and has got a series of rich features. These features include URGE services from MTV digital music services, Simplified Library, Library layouts. The newest URGE services provide access to the huge collection of online music, song collections. The simplified library improves customization options. Whenever, one plugs some of the latest media player compatible devices, the media player detects the device and installs the drivers associated with the device automatically.

5. Improved search, Windows Explorer:

In Windows Vista, you will get the search result as and when you type some letters of a particular word. The explorer shows a list of all files in the folder by default. When one types in, the few letters of words in the search box, the files will get filtered out according to the letters. Suppose, if one searches for filenames of “govt. services”, the search will filter out and displays only files with filenames with the name “gov”, if you type “gov” in the search text box. It will further filter the filenames, when you type full form. Also, the look of Windows Explorer got changed rapidly. More sorting options are also provided. Different kinds of listing is also got introduced.

6. Date and time, know the difference in time across the world:

In earlier Windows operating systems, it was indeed difficult to know the time difference across the two countries. It proved difficult for online chat users. In Windows Vista, one can add additional clocks, to show the time of some other country. For example, if you want to know the time of London, then you can add clock of London to the additional clocks tray. The tray comes up for display, when one moves mouse over the time shown in the task bar.

7. Manage your photos using photo gallery:

Windows Vista has got an inbuilt tool called as Photo Gallery to manage digital photos. Using it, one can modify the photos. It has got ability to show previews of movie files, a feature, which was not there with Windows XP. Using this tool, one can transfer or share the photos from computer to devices such as mobile phones, PDA’s, etc. The photo gallery also has the ability to work high precision, high quality images, which are produced by latest high quality cameras.

8. Total different world, new experience:

Windows Vista brings you the new world of new experience. It starts from amazingly changed desktop, which goes beyond imagination. All icons look better this time around. The 256x256 resolution icons made Vista world to feel like you have got a computer from heaven. Networking aspect has improved further in Windows Vista, with the introduction of further security enhancements. Performance wise, vista makes life better, when compared with its predecessors.

Vista Disadvantages:

1. Requirements high, too hot deal:

Windows Vista, the next generation operating system requires superb computer to install. It consumes a lot more resources than its predecessor windows XP. For vista Aero to work, you need to invest something more than what you would have expected to invest before. The graphics card requirement is quite high. The graphics card must be of DirectX 10 supported. The required minimum graphics memory on the graphics card is 128 MB. For better performance, graphics memory must be of 256 MB. The minimum hard disk space required is 20 GB for installation of Windows Vista. Processor speed is also expected to be high for Aero to work smoothly without causing any hiccups. The memory requirement for Windows Vista system is high. The system will work smoothly when one has got RAM of about 2 GB installed. Totally, I would like to say that, Windows vista eats up lot of resources, than its predecessor, the Windows XP.

2. Regarding price, sucking your hard earned money:

The price of Windows Vista Ultimate edition seems to be too high. Ordinary user cannot thus, have a look into all the features of Vista, which is only available in the Ultimate Edition. Microsoft seems to be not so interested in country wise markets. The prices are set according to the US market. However these prices are on higher side for developing asian countries. Microsoft should set the price of Vista as per the market. It is the time for Microsoft to think over this aspect, having introduced stricter validation process.

3. Replace the oldies, another way of extracting:

This is a usual problem, which always exists whenever new operating system gets released, and you have an old system or have some old components in the system. If one decides to install windows vista in the old system, then they should check the compatibility of system components, checking whether Vista supports them or not. Some manufacturers will still provide Vista support for the oldies by providing the latest drivers for the same. If manufacturers are not providing the latest drivers, you need to purchase a new device as a replacement for the existing device. Before, you purchase a new device you need to check out for Vista compatible or Vista ready logo, which is put up on the device.

4.Window appearance. Did you like the different look?

In Windows Vista, the window appearance underwent lot of unwanted changes. The windows in Windows Vista, the window appears similar to that of MAC OSX. The Minimize, Maximize, and Close buttons, wore a different look. The three buttons got reduced in their sizes, making them unclear to aged people, people with eye sight problems. The minimize, maximize, and close buttons have reduced in sizes. The icon in the other end has disappeared, which makes the window slightly dull in appearance.
In overall, the new operating system, Windows Vista is said to be an ideal replacement to its predecessor, the Windows XP.

advantages and disadvantage of Windows 7



Windows 7, an Operating System which was the product of Microsoft introduced to overcome the problems of Windows Vista, got released with an excellent set of new features. But still it is not that perfect. On the other hand, most probably, Windows 7 doesn’t have many disadvantages that Vista had. Certainly Windows 7 have more advantages.

Four days after the school shooting in Connecticut took the lives of 20 children and 6 staff members, classes resumed at most Newtown schools on Tuesday and the National Rifle Association broke its silence. “The N.R.A. is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again,” it said in a statement. Also on Tuesday, at least two more funerals were held, and a New York Post editorial echoed Rupert Murdoch’s calls for tighter gun control.
6:15 P.M. Governor Calls for Nationwide Moment of Silence
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy of Connecticut on Tuesday called on residents to participate in a moment of silence on Friday at 9:30 a.m., exactly a week after a gunman massacred 26 people at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
Mr. Malloy also asked that houses of worship and government buildings ring bells 26 times to commemorate the victims. He wrote a letter to all governors in the United States asking that they also participate.
“Let us all come together collectively to mourn the loss of far too many promising lives at Sandy Hook Elementary School,” Mr. Malloy said in a statement on the governor’s Web site. “Though we will never know the full measure of sorrow experienced by these families, we can let them know that we stand with them during this difficult time.”
4:28 P.M. N.R.A. Pledges to Help Prevent Similar Attacks
8:24 p.m. | Updated In its first official statement since the Newtown, Conn., school shootings last Friday, the National Rifle Association said Tuesday that it was “shocked, saddened and heartbroken by the murders” and would weigh into the growing public debate about guns and violence at a news conference this Friday.
The four-million-member gun rights group, one of the country’s most powerful grass-roots lobbying organizations, had stayed silent in recent days, issuing no statements, deactivating its Facebook account and declining interview requests since the killings of 20 schoolchildren and 7 adults, including the mother of the gunman. Its Facebook account was reactivated on Tuesday evening.
In a statement sent by e-mail on Tuesday, the group said, “Out of respect for the families, and as a matter of common decency, we have given time for mourning, prayer and a full investigation of the facts before commenting.”
In the wake of the Newtown shootings, gun opponents and others have called for tighter restrictions on the sale of weapons and better background checks on buyers, measures that are sure to face an uphill battle in Washington. The N.R.A. said Tuesday that it would participate in the debate, but it did not provide details.
“The N.R.A. is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again,” the statement said.
Full text of a statement released from the National Rifle Association on Tuesday.

The National Rifle Association of America is made up of four million moms and dads, sons and daughters – and we were shocked, saddened and heartbroken by the news of the horrific and senseless murders in Newtown.
Out of respect for the families, and as a matter of common decency, we have given time for mourning, prayer and a full investigation of the facts before commenting.
The N.R.A. is prepared to offer meaningful contributions to help make sure this never happens again.
The N.R.A. is planning to hold a major news conference in the Washington, D.C., area on Friday, December 21.
Details will be released to the media at the appropriate time.

4:13 P.M. Murdoch’s Support for Gun Control Echoed in His Paper
When Rupert Murdoch spoke out on Twitter in favor of tightening gun control in the wake of the Newtown shootings, other Twitter users wondered if his media empire would take an editorial stance in line with Mr. Murdoch’s evolving personal views.
The holdings of News Corporation, of which Mr. Murdoch is chairman, include The New York Post, The Wall Street Journal and Fox News.
An answer arrived in an editorial on Tuesday in The New York Post, “Adam Lanza’s Weapons,” that made its point with characteristic bluntness.
Has technology rendered the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution obsolete?
That is, has the application of modern military design to civilian firearms produced a class of weapons too dangerous to be in general circulation?
We say: Yes.
The piece acknowledges that the cow is well out of the barn, with enough privately owned guns in the country to arm nearly every adult citizen, and political will for gun restrictions likely to fade as the Newtown shootings recede from the nation’s consciousness. “But that won’t negate the need for reform,” the editorial says, concluding:
Weapons designed expressly to kill human beings, and then modified (wink wink) to meet the federal machine-gun ban, have no legitimate place in American society.
Time to get rid of them.
The response from The Post’s online commenters was largely negative.
“The entire premise of the article is ridiculous,” wrote one reader. “The idea that the writers of the constitution would look at the weapons available to criminals today, and then say law abiding citizens should only have bolt action rifles is ludicrous in the extreme.”
“The first responsibility of a gun owner is to secure that weapon when not in use or in your custody. Mrs. Lanza?” wrote another.
“The usual knee jerk reaction by the news media…” wrote a third, putting The Post in some unfamiliar company indeed.
Even some of the few who applauded the editorial expressed surprise. “Wow!” one reader wrote. “One of the few times I agree with a Post editorial.”

3:54 P.M. Funeral of Jessica Rekos, 6
The coffin of Jessica Rekos, 6, who was killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School last week, before her funeral at St. Rose of Lima Church in Newtown, Conn., on Tuesday.Todd Heisler/The New York Times The coffin of Jessica Rekos, 6, who was killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School last week, before her funeral at St. Rose of Lima Church in Newtown, Conn., on Tuesday.
The opening paragraphs from the obituary of Jessica Adrienne Rekos, published in The Newtown Bee, the local newspaper.
Jessica Adrienne Rekos, 6, beloved and cherished daughter of Richard S. and Krista A. Lehmann Rekos of Sandy Hook, died tragically, December 14, with her friends and classmates at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Born in Danbury May 10, 2006, she was a lifelong resident of Sandy Hook.
Jessica loved horseback riding, learning about orcas, writing, and playing with her little brothers.
3:39 P.M. Computer Hard Drive From Lanza Home Sent to F.B.I. Lab
The damaged hard drive that authorities took from the home where Adam Lanza and his mother lived, and where he fatally shot her, has been sent to the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s computer lab in Quantico, Va., for further analysis, according to a senior law enforcement official.
Investigators have been unable to get any information off the hard drive, which they believe Mr. Lanza, who had taken computer classes at a local college, smashed in an effort to prevent the authorities from determining what he had done on the computer.
Within the past few days, the F.B.I. had the hard drive hand delivered to bureau personnel and agents in Quantico who specialize in data retrieval, according to the official.
“It is going to be tough to get anything from it,” the official said. “If they are able to do so, it is going to take quite a while. But it is going to be tough.”
The F.B.I.’s technology division, national laboratory and training academy are in Quantico.
The official said that he did not know of any other electronic devices – like the computer console that was taken from the house – that had been handed over by local authorities to the F.B.I. for analysis.
The investigation of the shooting is being led by the Connecticut State Police.
The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because he did not want to be identified discussing an ongoing investigation

The opening paragraphs from the obituary of James Radley Mattioli published in The Newtown Bee, the local newspaper.
“Our Beloved Prince,” James Radley Mattioli, 6 ¾, fondly called “J,” died December 14, in his classroom at Sandy Hook Elementary School. He was born March 22, 2006, in Bridgeport.
An energetic, loving friend to all, James loved baseball, basketball, swimming, arm wrestling, and playing games on the iPad (especially the lawn mowing game). He loved to wear shorts and t-shirts in any weather, and grab the gel to spike his hair. He would often sing at the top of his lungs and once asked, “How old do I have to be to sing on a stage?”
James loved to dive off the diving board at the Treadwell Pool, swim like a fish in both of his grandparents’ pools and ride his bike, proudly without training wheels. He often said, “I need to go outside Mom, I need fresh air.” He spent endless hours playing hockey with his best bud and cousin, George.
He loved and admired his big sister and wanted to do everything that she could do. They were the best of friends, going to school together, playing games together, and making endless drawings and crafts together.
2:02 P.M. No Gun Show in Danbury, Hotel Says
The Crowne Plaza hotel in Danbury says that a coming gun show at the hotel being advertised on the Web site of Big Al’s Gun Shows is not going to take place.
“It is absolutely not happening at this hotel,” Jamie Santacroce, the hotel’s controller, said by phone Tuesday afternoon.
Ms. Santacroce said that while Big Al’s has had gun shows at the hotel in the past and that the hotel had sent him paperwork for the show he wanted to have on Jan. 5 and 6, the gun-show organizer never returned the contract for the January show.
In any case, Ms. Santacroce said, “We would have canceled it regardless,” adding, “we wouldn’t have that sort of event here given the circumstances.”
Ms. Santacroce said that the hotel was trying to get the organizer to remove the listing from his Web site.
A man who picked up the phone at the number listed on the Big Al’s Web site declined to comment when asked about Ms. Santacroce’s statement.

1:35 P.M. Nearly 2 Million Sign Sympathy Card for Newtown
More than 1.7 million people have signed an online sympathy card to express condolences for the shooting victims in Newtown, Conn., making it the largest gathering of signatures on causes.com, the social causes petition Web site where the card is posted. The card reads:
To: Community of Newtown, Connecticut, including the families of the victims and the survivors and their families.
Our Sincere Condolences.
We wish to express our deepest sympathies to all of the families of those lost, to the survivors and their families, and to the others impacted by the senseless and unthinkable tragedy that unfolded at Sandy Hook Elementary School. We cannot begin to comprehend the depth of your sadness and grief. Please know that we care deeply for you and we join with you in sharing your sorrow and pain. We only hope that you receive some measure of comfort in the knowledge that we, and an entire nation, stand with you during this extraordinarily difficult time.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
The cause was started by a man named David M. Paine, who in 2002 helped start www.911day.org, a movement that marks the anniversary of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11 with good deeds.
A message to signatories posted below the sympathy card on causes.com said:
In the face of yet another senseless act of violence that took the lives of innocent people in America, this time including very young children with their entire lives ahead of them, we are inviting our members and friends to join us in signing a national sympathy card for the families of the victims, the survivors and their families and the entire community of Newtown, Connecticut. We will deliver this note with the names of those signed to the community of Newtown, Connecticut.
Mr. Paine started the sympathy card on Dec. 15. Within 48 hours it had passed 1 million signatures, and by midday on Tuesday it had more than 1.7 million signatures, setting a record for the Web site.
Friends… we just surpassed 1.5 million signatures on the Sandy Hook Elementary School National Sympathy Card, making this the single largest gathering of signatures ever within the Causes community. Remarkable! Please keep inviting your friends to sign as well — we want to reach at least two million signatures.
The card was receiving 1,000 signatures per minute at its peak on Saturday, mashable.com reported, a day after the shooting by Adam Lanza, 20, at Sandy Hook Elementary School, where 20 children and 6 adults were killed.

1:26 P.M. Most Schools Reopen, but Threat Keeps One Closed
As most students resumed classes in Newtown on Tuesday and some local residents expressed weariness over the large news media presence, school officials decided against opening the town’s Head O’Meadow School because of an unspecified threat, the police said.
Newtown police officials said on Tuesday that the school was closed as a precaution. They declined to provide details.
No classes were held at Sandy Hook Elementary School, which is still considered a crime scene. Arrangements have been made for Sandy Hook’s students to attend classes in a former middle school in nearby Monroe. The school had been closed because of declining enrollment.
The Hartford Courant reports that Superintendent Janet Robinson told parents and the staff that moving into the middle school was the best option.
In the e-mail, Ms. Robinson said the Monroe school “allows us to keep the entire faculty together.”
“In the meantime, we need to tend to our teachers’ and students’ needs to feel comfortable after this trauma in this new place,” she wrote
School officials said the school, known as Chalk Hill, would not be ready until after the first of the year. But that did not stop the people of Monroe from sending a message of welcome.

12:25 P.M. Gun Show Coming to Danbury, 13 Miles from Newtown

Update, 2:12 p.m.: This gun show is not going to take place, the Crowne Plaza hotel said Tuesday afternoon. Read more.

A gun show is scheduled in the vicinity of Newtown, Conn., in a few weeks.
Big Al’s Gun Shows is bringing its traveling firearms market to the Crowne Plaza hotel in Danbury, 13 miles from Newtown, on Jan. 5 and 6.
According to Big Al’s Web site (warning: click on it and you hear a loud gunshot), children under 10 will get in free when accompanied by an adult.
Gun shows are the national bane of gun-control advocates – in most states, people who buy guns from sellers at gun shows are not required to undergo background checks the way people who buy guns at licensed firearms dealers are, according to the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence.
In Connecticut, background checks are required at gun shows only for sales of handguns, according to the coalition.
A man who answered the phone number listed on the Big Al’s site said “yes” when asked Tuesday morning if the show was still on. When asked further questions, he replied, “I really have no comments, buddy.” When asked his name, he said, “Have a good day” and hung up.
