Canggih Belum Tentu Aman

Ruby Alamsyah memang merupakan seorang hali dalam bidang elektronoka yang menurut saya lebuh piawai dari Roy Suryo. sepetrtinya Roy Suryo ini takut terkalahkan namanya oleh Ruby alamsyah.Kecanggihan teknologi transaksi melalui anjungan tunai mandiri (ATM) ternyata masih memiliki celah bagi para pelaku kriminal. Ahli forensik digital Ruby Zukri Alamsyah mengatakan, kartu ATM yang saat ini digunakan memang memiliki kelemahan. Sebab data hanya tersimpan di magnet kartu, jadi data bisa disalin dengan menggunakan skimmer [baca: Skimmer, Perekam PIN Nasabah].

Berdasarkan analisa pihak kepolisian, para pelaku menggunakan beberapa modus dalam menjalankan operasinya. Pertama, memasang skimmer di lubang masuk kartu ATM untuk mengopi data PIN. Lalu bisa pula dengan menggandakan kartu dengan memasukkan data PIN pemilik asli. Setelah itu pelaku atau sindikat melakukan penarikan dana di beberapa lokasi, bahkan di luar negeri dengan kartu yang mudah digandakan.

Modus operandi lainnya, pelaku bisa menggunakan spy camera untuk melihat data PIN. Bisa juga dengan menempelkan stiker bantuan daruat di ATM dengan nomor tertentu untuk dihubungi.

Terkuaknya kasus pembobolan ATM di sejumlah kota di Indonesia, menambah keresahan warga akan keamanan ekonomi mereka. Namun pihak Bank Indonesia berharap masyarakat tidak panik apalagi sampai melakukan penarikan besar-besaran.

Rumah yang Dihuni Keluarga Kanibal

Film Rumah Dara merupakan salah satu film horor yang layak kita lihat setrta tonton segera.Timo Tjahjanto dan Kimo Stamboel (Mo Brothers), GENRE: Horor Thriller, DURASI: 95 menit, PEMAIN: Shareefa Danish, Imelda Therinne, Arifin Putra, Ruli Lubis, Julie Estelle, Ario Bayu, Sigi Wimala, Daniel Mananta, Dendy Subagil, Mike Lucock.

Cerita Film Rumah Dara diawali dengan pertemuan adik-kakak antara Adjie (Ario Bayu) dan Ladya (Julie Estelle) di sebuah bar di Kota Bandung pada suatu malam. Adjie, sang kakak, sengaja mendatangi Ladya dengan niat berpamitan untuk bekerja di Australia.
Tetapi, hubungan kakak-beradik ini sebenarnya sudah tidak akur lagi sejak Ladya menuding Adjie adalah biang penyebab kematian kedua orangtuanya yang tewas dalam sebuah kecelakaan tragis di masa lalu.

Urung dimaafkan oleh sang adik, akhirnya Adjie bersama ketiga sahabatnya yang lain, Jimi (Daniel Mananta), Eko (Dendy Subagil), dan Alam (Mike Lucock) berniat langsung kembali ke Jakarta pada malam itu juga. Namun, beruntung berkat bujukan istri Adjie, Astrid (Sigi Wimala), Ladya akhirnya mau ikut ke Jakarta untuk mengantar kakaknya berangkat ke bandara.

Baru saja rombongan itu akan meninggalkan lapangan parkir, mendadak mobil yang dikemudikan Jimi nyaris menabrak Maya (Imelda Therinne), sosok perempuan misterius yang tiba-tiba muncul di moncong mobil keenam orang asal Jakarta itu.

Melihat kondisi Maya yang tampak shock dan muram akibat dirampok, tanpa dikomando Eko langsung turun dari mobil dan menawarkan tumpangan kepada Maya untuk diantarkan pulang. Dengan reaksi Eko seperti itu, pada awalnya kelima rekannya tidak setuju untuk mengantarkan Maya, tetapi lagi-lagi dengan wajah pucatnya, Maya berhasil meluluhkan hati seisi mobil mini van tersebut.

Tanpa curiga, Maya akhirnya ikut rombongan itu yang bersedia mengantarnya hingga ke rumahnya di daerah terpencil antara Kabupaten Subang dan Purwakarta. Sesampainya di rumah Maya, gadis malang itu mengenalkan Adjie beserta istri, adik, dan ketiga sahabatnya itu kepada perempuan anggun nan misterius bernama Dara (Shareefa Danish) sebagai kepala keluarga di rumah tua yang ada di tengah hutan jati itu.

Layaknya tuan rumah kebanyakan, Dara dengan bujuk rayunya berupaya menahan rombongan tersebut untuk mau dijamu makan malam dan beristirahat sejenak di rumahnya. Bukan maksud hati enggan menolak tawaran Dara, dengan perut yang terasa lapar mendera, akhirnya Eko, Alam, dan Jimi sepakat untuk menerima tawaran Dara.

Namun, tidak begitu dengan Ladya dan Adjie, sejak awal kakak beradik yang tidak akur ini mempunyai firasat buruk, tetapi dengan kondisi Astrid yang kelelahan karena tengah hamil delapan bulan memaksa Adjie dan Ladya ikut mengalah.

Jamuan makan malam pun di mulai, Ladya, Jimi, Eko, dan Alam dengan nikmatnya melahap segala hidangan yang tersedia di atas meja makan yang disajikan si empunya "Rumah Dara". Sebotol wine berkualitas dan makanan daging olahan nyaris tak tersisa dilahap keempat tamu Dara itu tanpa mengetahui daging apa yang sesungguhnya mereka makan.

"Hmm... enak daging ini beda rasanya," kata Ladya. "Wah masakan rumah ini enggak kalah sama restoran bintang lima," timpal Jimi memuji masakan yang disajikan oleh Dara pada sebuah malam yang diguyur hujan lebat.

Sial, belum lagi santapan di piring ludes, keempat tetamu asal Jakarta itu pun langsung tak sadarkan diri. Melihat tamunya terkulai pingsan, Dara langsung memerintahkan Maya, Adam (Arifin Putra), dan Armand (Ruli Lubis) untuk mengikat mereka berempat. Sementara Adjie dan Astrid di kuncinya di dalam kamar.

Tak ayal, pembantaian berdarah pun dimulai. Armand bertindak sebagai tukang jagal tanpa basa-basi langsung mengeksekusi Alam dengan chainsaw (gergaji mesin) sebagai korban pertama dari kekejaman yang terjadi di "Rumah Dara". Dengan santai dan ekspresi yang dingin, si tukang jagal itu mulai memutilasi korbannya dengan chainsaw di genggaman tangannya. Adegan berdarah dan sadis pun mulai disodorkan.

Film garapan sutradara kakak-beradik Timo Tjahjanto dan Kimo Stamboel (Mo Brothers), ini menyuguhkan ketegangan luar biasa tanpa batas. Adegan-adegan berdarah tak pernah luput dari tontonan yang berdurasi 95 menit ini. Timo dan Kimo mengklaim telah menghabiskan 11 galon darah hewan dan darah sintetis untuk menggarap film panjang pertama mereka setelah membuat film pendek "Sendiri" (2003) dan film pendek slasher "Dara" (2007).

"Rumah Dara" menjadi awal mula penjajakan kreatif mereka di ranah genre horor Asia yang masih konvensional dengan film yang mencoba menguak siapakah Dara sebenarnya? Apakah yang diinginkan sosok-sosok lain di dalam rumah yang berada di tengah hutan jati itu? Bagaimana dengan nasib Adjie, Ladya, Astrid, Jimi, Eko, dan bayi yang tengah dikandung Astrid? Temukan jawabannya pada 22 Januari 2010, di bioskop kesayangan Anda.

Online Cruise Travel Agency

Planning any vacation can be a daunting task, and the same goes for planning a cruise. Sometimes, planning a cruise can be even more time consuming due to all of the additional variables to consider. Considering that you will be at sea for a number of days at a time, it is even more important to select the perfect cruise line that you will be one hundred percent happy with, than it is to select the right hotel. With all the variables one must consider when planning a cruise vacation, there are distinct advantages of using an online cruise travel agency.

Knowledge
If you have already decided that there is too much to consider planning and booking your cruise vacation on your own, then you are one step ahead of the game. Unfortunately, many people devote hours and hours towards research and planning before they realize that they may need a little bit of help, and have bit off a little bit more than they can chew. There are many factors that should be taken into consideration, for instance, if you are contemplating taking a trip to the Caribbean, then knowing when hurricane season strikes is an extremely important detail. It is also a good idea to know when the whales will be in Hawaii before booking that Hawaiian cruise vacation, so that you can tell everyone that you were able to catch a glimpse of their astonishing beauty and grace. An experienced cruise travel agency will be able to give you that information without having to remember to look it up.
Convenience

A quick internet search will reveal the numerous amounts of travel agents that are out there ready to help you plan the most amazing cruise vacation of your life. Unfortunately, many of them want you to come into their office during their standard business hours. Fighting traffic to get there and then sitting in a stuffy office, listening to a dozen other travelers discuss their perfect vacation while your agent digs through a dusty stack of cruise brochures is hardly the way anyone would like to begin their travel planning experience.

Instead, imagine an ideal travel planning experience where you start off by grabbing your morning coffee, and checking your e-mail before beginning to browse through the current deals. Perhaps that 10-night exotic cruise around Australia and New Zealand catches your eye. Rather than making a call or an unnecessary rip to the travel agency, you can inquire more information online by filling out a form with a small amount of information about your contact preferences and when you would like to travel. You simply carry on with your day as planned while you wait for someone else to do all the legwork for you. These days, there are not many things more convenient than an online travel agency.

One Stop Shopping

All online cruise travel agencies were not created equal. Every cruise agency is well-equipped to provide you the essential information you require about where to travel, what to pack, and when to book in order to receive the best savings. Sadly, very few of them are prepared to also get you the best deal on airfare if you find you do not live in close proximity to your chosen port of call. Granted, they may be able to get you a flight; it just will not be at the best possible price, cutting into your travel budget. Before deciding on your online cruise travel agency, make sure they also offer full service travel planning so that all your needs can be met.

More Options

You may find that some online travel agencies will only book with a particular cruise line. This severely limits your options of location, price range, cruise theme and onboard activities. Selecting an overall well- rounded online travel agency for your cruising needs will allow you to get exactly what you want without having to check multiple sites or, make multiple phone calls.

If you already know where and when you would like to set sail then your online travel agency should give you the option to compare prices and options of multiple cruise lines at the same time. For example, consider the Mexican cruise you have always wanted to take in February. A good travel agent will give you at least ten options to consider, and a great online cruise travel agency will give you double that.

Within only a matter of minutes you should be looking at specific descriptions of what makes each cruise line special while comparing their prices. Providing you can find one that fits into your budget, then you will also be able to check for availability before you get your heart set on the stateroom that might already be fully booked. This year, make sure to find a full services online cruise travel agency so you can take enjoy every minute of your care-free, relaxing retreat.

Exploiting The Full Potential Of Human Memory Retention

When we talk about the full potential of human memory retention, like everything else, we are not using the full potential of our memory capabilities and this is down to many factors. One of them is of course genetics, which give us a predisposition on how we use the neurons in our brain and how much we can remember. With this, there is not much we can do, because the limiting factors are inherent within us and to overcome them will require a massive movement of mental concentration that not all of us are capable of. The good news about this is that a very small percentage of us have this condition and 99.9% of the human population in industrial and developed worlds with some sort of measuring materials will have normal memory capabilities.

Even in the normal ranges, different people will have different levels of remembering, so you have to note that the adage that no man or woman is born equal is very applicable here. When we talk about the process of memory retaining, we come across a very interesting fact and that is how we remember things within the cortex. You would be very interested to know that the brain actually stores memories based on events and the senses that are associated during these events. For example, the smell of chocolate (of a certain kind) will bring back the memories of the past, an event per se, and you will then be able to remember the things that are associated with that particular memory. Now, as you can see, this is really very specific because only a certain type of chocolate scent will cause your brain to stir, travel back in time (within the cortex), bring up the memory and proceed to let the neurons do the rest. Now, how can we exploit this?

There is a process of reverse engineering that has been around for a long time and this is called visualisation and association. We do the very exact same thing that the brain does to remember and we associate the very things that we have a propensity to forget. What we do then is we create a list of things that we forget, and make sure that the list is really short. Do not create a long list that will complicate your process in the first place. When you climb a mountain, you do it one step at a time and it is quite unrealistic to assume that you can just jump to the top.

Once you have the short list in hand, what you need to do is to associate the things on that list with visual and auditory stimuli. If you have trouble remembering laundry lists, try to make a song out of the ingredients or associate them with pictures. This is the very engineering blocks that make up how the brain remembers and here you are using the very same technology to your advantage to exploit the full potential of your memory.

Pacquiao-Mayweather diwajibkan jalani tes urin

Manny Pacquiao dan Floyd Mayweather Jr diminta untuk menyerahkan sampel urin dalam 48 jam oleh Komisi Atlet negara bagian Nevada.

Dua petinju terbaik di kelas welter ini sedianya akan bertarung di Las Vegas pada 13 Maret, namun megatarung ini batal gara-gara sengketa tes darah.

Sekarang Pacquiao dan Mayweather diwajibkan melakukan tes urin dan bila keduanya menolak, mereka bisa dijatuhi denda atau sanksi larangan bertarung di Nevada.

Pertarungan kedua petinju ini sangat dinantikan oleh para penggemar tinju di seluruh dunia dan disebut-sebut sebagai partai ideal.

Namun harapan untuk melihat Pacquiao dan Mayweather bertarung di atas ring sirna karena kedua petinju tidak satu suara soal tes darah.

Kubu Pacquiao menolak bila petinju asal Filipina ini harus mengikuti tes doping secara acak 30 hari sebelum hari pertandingan. Sedangkan kubu Mayweather bersikukuh tes secara acak ini harus dilakukan.

Pihak Pacquiao bahkan sempat mengancam akan mengajukan Mayweather ke pengadilan bila tetap menuntut tes darah dilakukan. Menurut Pacquiao, tuntutan tes darah ini seakan-akan menunjukkan selama ini ia memakai obat perangsang.

Direktur Eksekutif Komisi Atlet Nevada Keith Kizer berharap tes urin ini bisa meredakan ketegangan antara kedua pihak.

"Kami selalu berharap bahwa uji doping yang dilakukan para atlit akan menunjukkan hasil negatif," kata Kizer.

"Saya tidak tahu apakah uji urin ini nantinya akan membantu berbagai pihak terkait menggelar pertandingan ini. Namun kalau memang ini menjadi persyaratan, marilah kita lakukan tes doping ini."
Pertarungan termahal

Promotor Pacquiao, Bob Arum sebelumnya meminta Komisi Atlet Nevada mengeluarkan keputusan mengenai kasus ini dan meminta sidang pada 19 Januari mendatang.

Arum juga mengatakan jika kubu Mayweather tidak setuju dengan apapun keputusan Komisi Atlet Nevada, Pacquiao akan memilih menggelar petarungan melawan Paulie Malignaggi.

"Kami akan mematuhi keputusan Komisi Atlet Nevada," tegas Arum. "Kami masih ingin pertarungan tinju ini bisa digelar."

Namun manajer Mayweather, Leonard Ellerbe, mengatakan pertarungan melawan Pacquiao tidak bisa ditentukan sendiri oleh Arum.

"Jika mereka tidak mau melakukan tes urin atau tes darah, maka pertarungan ini tidak bisa dilaksanakan," kata Ellerbe.

Ini, kata Ellerbe, adalah harga mati.

"Arum tahu itu. Kalau mereka ingin mengurungkan niat mundur dari pertandingan tinju termahal dalam sejarah olahraga, ini adalah keputusan mereka."

Pacquiao yang saat ini berusia 31 tahun adalah juara dunia tinju di lima kelas, salah satunya di kelas welter versi badan tinju dunia WBO.

Mayweather dikenal sebagai salah satu petinju terbaik di kelas ini dan ia mengakhiri masa pensiun selama 21 bulan dengan memenangkan pertarungan melawan Juan Manuel Marquez September lalu.

Keyword Positions

One of the biggest questions advertisers have when manage their pay per click account is how much they should bid for their keywords. Bidding too high may incur too much cost and advertisers might not be able to sustain a profitable ROI, whether bidding too low might not allow their ads to be positioned at a visible spot.

There is a function in Google Analytics that allows advertisers to see at which positions their keywords receive the most visits, transactions, revenue, conversion rate, and etc.

Simply login into Google Analytics, select a report which has the proper filters applied. Then click on Traffic Sources. Within the expended pull down menu, select Adwords then click on Keyword Positions.

Now just type in the keyword that you want to analyze into the “Find keywords” box to see the stats on that keyword. Click on the keyword once, then you can start seeing the position break down on the right.

This handy little tool might not be practical for huge companies that have tens and thousands of keywords, since manually analyzing each single one of them would just be overly time consuming. But for small businesses that have a few core keywords which make up the majority of their conversions, this is a great way to get some general ideas on how much they should bid to maximize their investments.

One thing to be careful though, is not to solely rely on the number of transactions to make decisions; instead you should also take the conversion rate, and number of visits into account.

For example: let’s assume for the time period you are analyzing, your keyword have spent 90% of the time at position one and only 10% of the time at position three, so most likely there would be more transactions happening at position one than at position three.

But at the same time, the keyword might only be getting a 0.3% conversion rate at position one whereas at position three, it might be getting a 3.2% conversion rate. Assuming there isn’t a big different on the number of visits between the two positions, it actually makes more sense to lower your bid and have the keyword on position three for most of the time.

As with any other analysis process, make sure you have a sufficient data collection before making any judgements.

Preparing Your Young Actor or Actress for Industry Success

Helping your young acting hopeful prepare for a successful acting career can be an incredibly rewarding experience for the parent. All parents like seeing their children being creative, expressing themselves, and, most importantly, having fun.

It should be stated, however, that forcing a child to participate in any pursuit they don't like is not just counterproductive but harmful to the child. Your role, as the acting hopeful's parent, is to caringly nurture your children's expressed interests and not force them into a pursuit in order to live vicariously through them. One would have to be born under a rock to have missed some of the more public examples of what can happen when children are forced into an acting career they never wanted.

That being said, there are some very simple pointers you can follow that will have a powerful impact in the immediate sense and create long-term opportunities for the professional acting success of your son or daughter.

Start Early: Human beings, it would seem, are all natural born actors. Early in their lives, they often spend entire afternoons play-acting imaginary scenarios. Sadly, as many of us get older, we forget how much fun acting can be. By exposing your youngsters, at an early age, to the concept of acting, you are, in effect, introducing them to something at which they are already. Regardless of whether it's soccer, football, chess, or acting, childhood pursuits should always be fun. By giving your children an early glimpse of acting while they are young and predisposed to the concept, you dramatically increase the odds of their long-term success. Acting Camps provide the perfect vehicle for your children to immerse themselves in the creative fun acting can provide. What they gain from the camp experience has as much to do with you, the parent, as it does the camp itself. With the internet woven into the fabric of our lives, there is simply no excuse for parents not doing due-diligence research on any acting camp they are considering. A little research time, up front, can save you a lot of money, effort, and disappointment later.

After your children have started their first camp, make sure that they are having fun. If not, first try finding a better-suited program and see if that resolves the issue. If not, you may need to consider the fact that acting may not be of interest to them at that point in their lives. If that is the case, and the situation is handled carefully, it may well become one as they get older. Forcing the issue now will virtually guarantee that your child will never enjoy the art. If there isn't a fit, back off and give them some time. Find out what it was about the camp experience they didn't like. More importantly, find out what things (even if only a few) they actually did like about the camp. Pay attention to these answers. There is a good chance that, armed with this information, you can research other camps that may be better suited to your child's tastes and artistic needs. Find a different camp, try again next year, and until then don't push or make a big deal out of it.

Be Involved: Acting is a passion and, like flame, it needs fuel in order to burn. A parent's support and involvement has no equal as that fuel. Acting Camp is about far more than just what happens during the time your child attends. What happens before and after camp is as important as the camp itself. Furthermore, if you have an uninterested attitude towards your children's pursuits then their attitude will soon follow your own. Help them prepare for the camp experience beforehand. If you have done your research, then you are well-versed in what your children will be learning and doing. Help them feel prepared for it and they will have the kind of fun that only self-confidence brings. After Camp is over, spend a lot of time revisiting what they experienced and learned. Often, there are exercises and drama games that can be fun for the whole family to recreate. Children look to their parents for validation. Be that validation for your young actor or actress and you have armed them well for success.

Be Selective: Acting Camps are as varied as the children who attend them. Take the time to research, research, research. If your children are new to the art, look for fun-filled camps that focus more on the enjoyment of the experience than the knowledge gained. As your children progress, they will want, as well as need, more challenges for their minds. Complacency destroys drive, and an unchallenged mind can hardly avoid becoming complacent. Acting Camp should always be fun, but as your children grow they will develop a sense of pride in their craft and will be eager to take the challenge to the next level. Do your homework and be prepared to provide that challenge in their next camp.

Preparing For the Next Step: Eventually your children (and I use that term loosely here) will be ready to move on to acting school. As you have watched and participated with your children in their acting youth, you'll no doubt have picked up on where their artistic talents and drive really lie. Research schools that have well-respected programs, and degrees, in those areas. This next step is an expensive one, so doing your research here actually does pay. Just as acting camps have helped form your children's creative foundations, so acting schools will take it to that next, and this time, professional level.

Foreign Travel Health Tips

Apk Download, With just 36 hours to circle the world by air, a time well below the incubation period of most diseases can be contracted in many countries around the world. Year after year, more and more people who undertake international travel, even in developing countries that were just beaten goals: reducing the cost of flights were offered to many, the opportunity to visit distant countries, often for the first time.

The more than 700 million passengers who travel each year on the planet have a significant risk of getting sick and becoming a vehicle of infection to other people when they get back home. Every traveler should be aware that protect your health also means protecting those of others and that to do so we must also respect the culture and environment of the destination of travel.

In recent years, health authorities around the world have understood the importance of protecting human health from possible outbreaks of infection or precarious sanitary situation of the countries visited. On the one hand, the risk can be minimized through appropriate precautions, prevention and vaccination, taken prior to departure. Secondly, the identification and timely treatment of an imported disease are essential for preventing the disease from transmitting to others, to become a serious public health problem.

Before you travel

To reduce the risk of getting sick or having accidents while you are abroad, the ideal is to contact your doctor 4-6 weeks before you leave. Among the general factors to consider are:

1. Pre-existing diseases or disorders
2. Vaccination status (including the possibility of vaccines against diseases endemic in the destination of travel)
3. Allergies to foods or medicines
4. Prescriptions being
5. Any previous trips.

Depending on the destination of the journey, we must then consider all those who may become risk factors:

* Food and water, are often not thoroughly purified in many countries around the world
* Environmental conditions to which the body is not accustomed (altitude, drought, temperature too high)
* Presence of parasites in the environment and in animals with whom you may come into contact (by insects in various invertebrates, until poultry)
* Sexual behaviors that may increase the risk of transmitting infections.

The characteristics of the journey and the destination are important: a roadmap, place and length of stay, conditions of hygiene, and reason for travel (tourism, business, educational, humanitarian mission, etc.), season of the year, possible exposure to risk factors, epidemic in progress.

There are some categories of especially vulnerable people who require more care during the sight: children, elderly, pregnant women and immunocompromised individuals, but also people who are preparing to make a trip "adventure."

Depending on the destination then the journey will be recommended the vaccine or prophylaxis against certain specific diseases. Today, no country requires the certificate of vaccination against smallpox and against cholera. The only certificate that should be required in international travel, up to some travelers, is that against yellow fever. Many countries require an international certificate of vaccination valuable to travelers arriving from infected areas or who have transited through those areas, while some require a certificate to all travelers entering, including those in transit. That requirement goes beyond what is stated in the International Health Regulations, however, vaccination is strongly recommended for travel outside of urban areas in countries including in areas endemic for yellow fever.

As for malaria, for each country situated in endemic areas is recommended chemoprophylaxis specification, according to species and level of drug resistance parasites

Detailed information on the vaccination to visit different areas of the world can be found in many institutional sites, including the Ministry of Health, the WHO or Cdc Americans. Epicenter are also on a number of health topics relevant to those preparing to make a trip:

Menurut Ramalan Bintang

Ramalan Bintang sudah sering kita dengar dan mungkin juga kita sudah merasa malas serta jenuh membaca ramalan bintang tersebut. Dalam postingan ini, kita akan membahas tentang ramalan bintang yang mungkin sering kali selalu berual;ang - ulang.Menurut ramalan bintang Dewi Persik akan menikah beberapa kali lagi.

Dua kali sudah Dewi Persik menikah dan dua kali pula bercerai. Memasuki 2010, penyanyi dangdut dengan goyang gergaji itu diramalkan akan menikah beberapa kali dan kembali kandas.

"Dia bakal menikah beberapa kali dan tidak akan bertahan lama. Semua manusia punya kelemahan. Kelemahan Dewi terlalu gampang jatuh cinta, terlalu gampang menyesal. Saya sangat menyayangkan," ungkap Mama Lauren saat ditemui okezone di kediamannya, Perumahan Cipinang Indah II, Jalan Kasuari, Cipinang, Jakarta Timur, belum lama ini.

Dengan siapa mantan istri Aldi Taher dan Saipul Jamil itu akan menikah lagi dan kapan pernikahan akan dilangsungkan, Mama Lauren tak bisa memastikan.

Penerawangan hampir senada diungkapkan paranormal kondang Ki Joko Bodo. Dia melihat di tahun macan logam ini, Dewi masih akan disibukkan dengan bergonta-ganti pasangan. Wajah cantik dan tubuh seksi artis yang kini tergabung di Republik Cinta Manajemen (RCM) itu masih bakal memikat kaum Adam.

"Dewi orang yang penuh sensasi dalam kehidupan percintaan. Di tahun 2010, dia akan berpacaran dengan kalangan artis, kemudian hubungan mereka mencuat. Lalu Dewi akan ganti pasangan lagi," tutur Ki Joko.

Sampai kapan bintang film Paku Kuntilanak itu akan terus bergonta-ganti pasangan, Ki Joko mengatakan, sampai Dewi menemukan yang terbaik.

"Dia masih akan bergonta-ganti pacar sebelum menemukan yang terbaik. Tapi dia tidak akan menemukan yang terbaik di tahun 2010 ini," jelas pria berambut gondrong itu.

Di mata pria yang mengaku reinkarnasi dari Ki Joko Bodo yang telah meninggal ratusan tahun lalu itu, Dewi sosok perempuan dinamis. Tidak bisa diam dan selalu berkarya.

"Dewi itu orangnya sangat dinamis. Oleh karena itu, karier dia masih akan berjalan terus," tutup Ki Joko.

Benarkah semua yang dikatakan Mama Lauren dan Ki Joko Bodo? Namanya juga ramalan. Kita lihat saja nanti kenyataan yang akan terjadi

Jennifer Lopez

JENNIFER LOPEZ and Date of Birth: July 24, 1969. With her $1 million paycheck for playing Selena in the movie of the same name about the slain Tejano singer, Lopez became the highest paid Latina actress in history. She was chosen for that role after a national search was undertaken to find an actress who could convincingly pull off Selena's combination of sexuality, innocence and killer dance moves.

For Lopez, the dance part was the easiest. The daughter of a computer specialist and a kindergarten teacher, Lopez was raised in the Bronx, New York, before beginning her showbiz career as a dancer in stage musicals and music videos. Later, she won a much-coveted spot as one of choreographer Rosie Perez's "Fly Girls" on In Living Color. Exposure on that TV show led to the Hollywood career that Lopez had always had her sights set on.

She stuck it out on In Living Color for two years, gyrating away to the beat during the transition breaks between the show and the commercials. Some TV work -- South Central, Second Chances, Malibu Road and Nurses on the Line: The Crash of Flight 7 -- came her way before she appeared in Gregory Nava's critically acclaimed 1995 film, Mi Familia.

That film was followed up with a couple of duds that she survived unscathed before she turned in a fine performance in a decent film, Blood & Wine (1997). But it was her next film, Selena (1997), that really marked Lopez as an up-and-comer.

Her following films and recording career have propelled Lopez to superstardom -- she usually travels with at least a dozen bodyguards. Although none of her films have been huge hits and her acting hasn't won any notices, she continues to work non-stop, as well as being one of the paparazzi's most desired subjects. This may be partly to her very public private life, beginning with affair with rapper Sean "Puffy" Combs which ended early in 2001, followed by her short-lived marriage to dancer Cris Judd (September 2001 to January 2003), which was then interrupted when she began a relationship with Ben Affleck, whom she met in 2001 while filming Gigli (2003). The couple created quite a stir when they scheduled their wedding in September 2003, only to cancel it amidst rumors of a separation. The relationship fell apart and by January 2004, they had broken up. Just five months later, Lopez married singer/actor Marc Anthony on June 5, 2004, catching the media -- and the public -- by surprise.

Her salary grew to $20 million per film with the Canadian-filmed romantic comedy Shall We Dance? (2004), co-starring Richard Gere. She plays Robert Redford's daughter-in-law in the drama An Unfinished Life (2005) and the girlfriend of Jane Fonda's son in the comedy Monster-in-Law (2005).
