Dinosaurs Extinction

"For over 100 million years, dinosaurs, and not mammals, were the dominant form of life on Earth. The pinnacle of evolution at the time, dinosaurs filled the niches of being the largest, most differentiated animals -- herbivores and carnivores both -- on the planet. As you well know from seeing their fossils, they would dwarf their modern, mammalian counterparts if they were still alive today. But they're not still alive today, because a mass extinction event occurred 65 million years ago. And the fossil record indicates that it occurred all at once, which is unusual. The Earth was overrun with dinosaurs, everywhere. In just a few hundred thousand years, they were all gone. All of them. Large, small, it doesn't matter. That's what extinct means -- every last one." Ethan Siegel

There are some evidence that the cause might not from Chicxulub asteroid impact so now scientist try to look for more evidence, so... what kind of event that actually happen that erase all those Dinosaurs? a very interesting mystery.

Hawking & Swine Flu

Sebelum ini saya pernah mengutip perkataan Hawking di FB, singkatnya manusia harus mengupayakan agar kita dapat menuju angkasa luar (mengkolonisasi Planet lain), karena kehidupan di bumi akan menjadi semakin berbahaya salah satunya karena ledakan penduduk, penyakit mudah menyebar (dan yg baru pula). Swine Flu yang terjadi di Mexico telah memakan korban +100 orang dan +1600 positif terjangkit, sehingga pemerintah Mexico membagikan +4000 masker dan mengeluarkan anjuran utk tidak pergi ke tempat keramaian. Flu ini juga sudah dikonfirmasi terjadi di beberapa negara termasuk USA (ada 20 kasus), sehingga Presiden Barack Obama merasa perlu melakukan press conference untuk menyatakan kesiapan CDC (Suatu badan pemerintah US yg menangani penyakit menular) dalam menghadapi Swine Flu utk menenangkan masyarakat.
WHO bahkan sedang mempertimbangkan peningkatan status kondisi Swine Flu menjadi Pandemic (Flu burung atau AIDS statusnya juag Pandemic) krn sudah menginfeksi multi benua.
Namun saya tetap percaya hal ini dapat diatasi, namun penyataan Hawking pun memiliki kebenaran, namun agar lebih cepat "going to space" membutuhkan kerjasama antar ras manusia yg lebih baik, dan mengurangi peperangan, karena bumi ibaratnya hanyalah sebuah pesawat luar angkasa yg luar biasa besar dan kompleks yg harus dijaga agar tidak rusak sebelum saatnya (global warming merusak bumi) tapi disuatu saat (masih lama sekali) harus kita sadari akan habis masa pakainya dan kita perlu punya pengganti.

The Beginning

Well... This is the first time I use true Blog (if you do not count Facebook as a Blog).
I hope my thought in this blog will have some meaning in this sea of word, and become a reminder for my life from now on. Better late then never right ?

A bit about My self :

Eventhough in Indonesia Boardgame is not so famous, I play boardgames with my parents when I was just a little boy, those expirience is a very wonderfull one, thats why I keep playing until now, it is like a programming I guess inside my head boardgame = is fun !

In my blog you will find my thought around books I read, news, film, idea, things I learn from around me maybe some boardgame too, we will see.
