Joke dibawah ini didapat dari suatu milis. Si pengirim bilang “cerita ini dikisahkan ketika perang Gaza akhir 2008 lalu, saat Mubarak tetap menutup perbatasan Rafah bagi warga Gaza. Ditulis kembali dalam versi saya. Mohon maaf bila ada yang telah mengetahui cerita ini”. Bagi yang ingin mengclaim cerita dibawah harap menghubungi saya 
Dalam perang Gaza 2008 lalu, Husni Mubarak sedang duduk di dalam istananya, kedua tangannya diletakkan di atas pinggang. Tepat di depannya seorang Panglima tentara Mesir.
Mubarak : (menarik nafas) “Wahai Jendral, apa pendapatmu, siapa yang lebih baik, Aku atau Nasser ?”
Jendral : (terkejut) “Anda lebih baik tuanku, karena Nasser takut terhadap Rusia, tapi anda tidak.”
Mubarak : (wajahnya tersenyum) “Lalu siapa yang lebih baik? Sadat atau Aku?”
Jendral : “Sungguh Anda lebih baik tuanku, karena Sadat takut sama Israel tapi Anda tidak pernah takut.”
Mubarak : (tertawa lalu berdiri) “Kalau begitu, siapakah yang lebih baik, Umar bin Khattab atau Aku?”
Jendral : (Berjalan keluar dan membuka pintu) “Wallohi tuanku, Anda lebih baik ketimbang Umar bin Khattab, karena Umar takut pada Alloh tapi Anda tidak”

Menurut paper ini, korupsi lebih banyak menurun di daerah dimana anggota legislatif dari partai Islam lebih banyak.
Indonesia has a tradition of corruption among local officials who harass and collect bribes from firms. This paper examines whether corruption is affected by local democratization and by the party composition of local assemblies. Democratization occurred in 1999 and decentralization in 2001. We have firm-level data for 2001 and 2004. The 2001 data benchmark corruption at the time of decentralization. We find that corruption declines between 2001 and 2004 overall, but much less so in districts with more secular party as opposed to Islamic party representatives in district assemblies. For a larger sample of districts, correspondingly, we find that corruption in 2004 is more in districts which voted more in favor of secular party representatives in the first elections in 1999. We argue that the effects seem to be causal, over above any effects of changing religiosity and economic circumstances across districts.

Search result based or friend recommendation based in video watching

If you look at this analysis of Brightcove report, video watched because of someone giving you link to watch is gaining momentum.
What do they mean?
Since around 10 years ago, information was accessed mainly because you found the information from a search engine, thus bringing a new era of freedom of information because nobody can force you to accept information. Anybody can search for information without any cap.
But maybe in the future, you will be lazy enough to find information and depend your knowledge to your friends. The implication is, your knowledge is as far as your friend’s knowledge.
