VATICAN CITY (CNS) -- Pope Benedict XVI will meet with Cuban President Raul Castro, Mexican President Felipe Calderon and bishops and Catholics from the region when he visits Mexico and Cuba March 23-28.

He will also deliver a message to the bishops of Latin America and the Caribbean as well as pray at the shrine of Our Lady of Charity of El Cobre in Cuba.

Vatican Radio released the pope's itinerary as detailed by the Mexican and Cuban bishops' conferences Jan. 2.

The pope will visit three cities in the state of Guanajuato in central Mexico; the Vatican spokesman had said Pope Benedict would not visit Mexico City because of the elevation -- 7,900 feet above sea level -- but the towns in Guanajuato are each about 5,900 feet above sea level.

In Cuba, he will make stops in Santiago de Cuba and the capital, Havana.

From Rome, the pope will arrive in Mexico March 23 at the airport in Leon, Guanajuato, where he will be received by President Calderon and Archbishop Jose Guadalupe Martin Rabago of Leon.

During his four-day stay in Mexico, the pope will be staying at the Miraflores College in Leon, an institute run by religious sisters.

The pope will meet government officials and President Calderon March 24 at the Guanajuato state government house of Conde Rul. Later he will greet and bless those gathered at Peace Square.

He will celebrate Mass March 25 in Silao's Bicentennial Park, which is at the foot of the Cerro del Cubilete hill and its 67-foot-tall monument of Cristo Rey. Representatives of the 91 dioceses of Mexico will be present at the Mass.

Later in the day, the pope will celebrate evening prayer in Leon's cathedral and deliver a message for all the bishops of Mexico and the representatives of bishops' conferences of Latin America and the Caribbean.

The pope will leave Mexico March 26 for Cuba, where he will be welcomed at the Santiago de Cuba airport by President Castro, Archbishop Dionisio Guillermo Garcia Ibanez of Santiago de Cuba and representatives of the Cuban bishops' conference.

The pope will celebrate Mass in Antonio Maceo Revolution Square later that day. He will stay at a priests' residence in El Cobre.

The pope will make a private visit to the shrine of Our Lady of Charity of El Cobre March 27.

Afterward, he will head to the airport and fly to Havana where he will be welcomed by Cardinal Jaime Ortega Alamino of Havana, bishops and religious, government and civil leaders.

The pope will have an official meeting with President Castro and will meet with Cuban bishops at the apostolic nunciature, where the pope will be staying.

The pope will celebrate Mass March 28 in Jose Marti Revolution Square and leave later that day for Rome.

OMG! Another "Fidel is Dead" Rumor

Cuba criticizes Twitter for Fidel death rumor

By PAUL HAVEN
Associated Press

HAVANA -- State media on Wednesday accused the social networking site Twitter of helping spread a rumor that former Cuban leader Fidel Castro had died, and criticized anti-Castro expatriates it dubbed "necrophiliac counterrevolutionaries" for jumping on the story.

An article on the state-run Cubadebate Web site accused Twitter of allowing an account holder with the sign-on "Naroh" to start the rumor on Monday from an Italian server, then quickly deactivate the account.

It said Twitter then helped spread the disinformation by allowing the hash tag "fidelcastro" to become a trending topic. It briefly became the fourth most popular in the world as it drew many more people to the subject.

The site also accused Twitter of censoring subjects in the past that were in favor of the Cuban government.

There was no immediate reaction from Twitter. Rumors that a celebrity or other public figure is dead are common on social media sites and can spread quickly because of their nature.

Cubadebate also blamed anti-Castro expatriates anxious to see Castro's demise for gleefully furthering the rumor, saying "necrophiliac counterrevolutionaries, aided by some media, immediately started to party."

Castro, 85, turned power over to his brother Raul in 2006 during an illness that nearly killed him. He is officially retired, though he occasionally publishes opinion columns.

In recent months, Castro has alluded to the limits of age, but has also taken pride in his longevity. Cuba boasts that along with besting the actuarial tables, the former Cuban leader has survived hundreds of assassination attempts at the hands of his enemies in the United States.

Cubadebate noted that a false story about Castro's demise was spread on the Internet and elsewhere back in August. On that occasion, there was even a computer virus embedded in a spam email titled "Fidel is Dead," which featured a doctored, grainy photograph of the former Cuban leader that appeared to show him lying in a coffin.

As usual, the Cuban government has declined to make any official comment about Castro's health. But the former leader hasn't been silent. On Dec. 31, he sent a get-well letter to a Cuban baseball star that was read over state television.

Cubadebate on Wednesday reiterated a refrain it used the last time the Castro rumors began, saying that the latest hubbub was spread by "people inventing things in the virtual world that even the CIA could not accomplish in real life."

Opponent of the Cuba Embargo Finishes a Strong Third in Iowa Caucuses

December 4, 2012

U.S. Representative Ron Paul, who is the only candidate for President of the United States in the 2012 presidential election who has publicly expressed his opposition to the failed Cuba embargo, and who is also a very strong anti-war candidate, finished as a third place winner in the Iowa caucuses last night.

The American electorate is ready for BIG CHANGE. Barack H. Obama has followed in the footsteps of George W. Bush. The guy who promised us hope, change, and “a new beginning with Cuba” has been a huge fraud. He is the standard bearer of the status quo and the capitalist establishment. He leads the anti-Cuba hate partisans, and keeps on sending millions of U.S. taxpayer money to the anti-Cuba Cuban-American National Foundation, which is funded and directed by the United States government.

There will be many more primary elections or caucuses during the rest of this year. Florida will hold its Presidential Preference Primary on January 31st. I urge you to do what I did: change your party registration (temporarily, of course!) to Republican and cast your vote of support for Representative Ron Paul in the coming last Tuesday of this month. Send them a strong message that you oppose the Cuba embargo. Then on February first you can always change your voter registration back to what it was before.

A vote for Romney, Gingrich or Obama is a vote to continue the failed policies of the empire in regards to Cuba.

Penyebaran Virus di Tahun 2011 dan Bagaimana di 2012 ?

Penyebaran Virus di Tahun 2011 - hay para sobat blogger dimana pun berada saya akan share tentang penyebaran virus di tahun 2011. Ternyata di tahun 2011 bukan hanya bencana alam, dan kejadian-kejadian di tahun 2011 yang menggegerkan dunia ini, ternyata penyebaran virus pun makin meraja lela di tahun 2011 ini.

Penyebaran virus di tahun 2011 ternyata berbeda dengan tahun tahun sebelumnya, tidak hanya melalui USB flash disk atau Hardisk eksternal yang sering lepas-pasang pada komputer kita.

Bahkan saat ini dengan datangnya perkembangan android dan Blackberry yang makin pesat di tahun 2011. dan virus yang berkembang ini memberikan warna baru pada perkembangan dunia maya saat ini.

Mac yang selama ini di klaim sebagai OS paling kuat dari serangan viruspun mulai masuk dalam daftar incaran virus. 

Hal ini membuktikan bahwa tidak ada OS yang kebal dari serangan virus, karena semakin poluper dan semakin banyak OS tersebut di gunakan maka semakin rentan terhadap serangan virus.

Secara umum trend penyebaran Malware di tahun 2011 di bagi menjadi 4 (empat) jenis, yakni:

Virus injection 

Virus yang didesain secara khusus untuk menginjeksi file yang telah ditentukan, biasanya berupa file yang sering digunakan seperti file yang mempunyai ekstensi EXE. 

Metode ini digunakan sebagai bentuk pertahanan diri agar bisa berumur panjang dan sulit dibasmi. Di tahun 2011 terdapat beberapa virus yang  mempunyai kemampuan untuk menginjeksi file seperti Sality/Virut atau Ramnit. 

Khusus untuk virus Ramnit selain menginjeksi file yang mempunyai ekstensi EXE juga akan menginjeksi file dengan ekstensi DLL, HTM dan HTML hal inilah yang menjadikan Ramnit menjadi jawara selama semester pertama sebagai virus yang paling banyak menyebar.

Scareware 

Rouge antivirus/fake antivirus/antivirus palsu, adalah malware yang menyamarkan dirinya sebagai program keamanan seperti antivirus. Scareware dirancang untuk menakut-nakuti user dengan menampilkan peringatan palsu yang menginformasikan bahwa komputer terinfeksi program berbahaya. 

Untuk kasus tertentu akan menyebabkan user tidak dapat menjalankan aplikasi. Scareware/antivirus palsu biasanya bersifat trial sehingga untuk mendapatkan versi Full, user harus melakukan registrasi dengan mengirimkan sejumlah uang ke alamat yang sudah ditentukan.

Phishing 

Virus FaceBook, Maraknya penguna facebook saat ini menjadi salah satu faktor meningkatnya serangan phishing di tahun 2011. Phishing dirancang secara khusus untuk mengalihkan user untuk mengakases ke website yang telah ditentukan. 

Website tersebut mempunyai tampilan yang sama persis dengan website aslinya dengan tujuan untuk mencuri informasi penting seperti username dan password dan data penting lain nya termasuk data email.

Virus Android

Pertumbuhan Android yang luarbiasa dan ditunjukkan dengan semakin banyaknya pengguna Android ditahun 2011 semakin “memotivasi” para kriminal untuk membuat virus dan  menjadi “ladang” baru setelah sebelumnya menyerang system operasi Microsoft. 

Dengan diawali kemunculan virus yang memanfaatkan program Angry Bird dan masih, hal ini membuktikan Android saat ini bukanlan OS yang aman lagi. 

Macintosh yang selama ini sering mengklaim diri sebagai OS yang kebal dari serangan viruspun mulai menjadi sasaran serangan virus yang muncul di semester pertama yang menyamarkan dirinya sebagai software keamanan Macintosh dengan nama “MacSecurity”.

Kesimpulan

Jadi kita harus hati hati nee sobat apa lagi yang sering lepas cabut Flashdisk dan hardisk eksternal. jika sudah kena virus ini kan tidak hanya biaya, waktu pun akan terbuang dengan sia sia. Semoga pada tahun 2012 ini virus tidak lagi merajalela dan bisa di hentikan. dan piranti anti virus bisa lebih ditingkatkan lagi.

Maju terus Kemajuan teknologi di tahun 2012.
