Merasakan Pengalaman Belanja Murah

Siapa tahu lagi perlu bahan baju, celana, seprei, atau kain gorden dengan harga miring,dan ingin mencoba sensasi belanja murah,tak ada salahnya melongok pasar kain di daerah Cipadu Tangerang. Di tempat ini terdapat sekitar 300 kios yang tersebar di sepanjang Jalan KH Wahid Hasyim, Kecamatan Larangan. Kios yang umumnya berukuran 3 x 4 meter itu hampir semuanya ditempati para pedagang kain.

Cipadu tak seramai Pasar Tanah Abang. Tapi, Cipadu, kata Ricky, punya kelebihan tersendiri. "Di Tanah Abang memang ramai pengunjung, tapi pedagangnya juga banyak. Di sini, pembeli tak berjubel, tapi tetap saja ada yang datang mencari barang karena tempatnya luas dan tak berdesak-desakkan." Pembeli, lanjutnya, biasanya dari daerah Ciledug, Bintaro, Tangerang, dan sekitarnya. "Kadang ada juga yang dari luar daerah. Biasanya datang berombongan."

Sedangkan ada pula pedagang yang mengkhususkan diri menjual bahan jins dengan aneka corak dan warna yang dijualnya Rp 37 sampai 45 ribu per potong celana. Ia punya alasan tersendiri, kenapa menjual bahan jins dan bukan celana jins siap pakai. "Yang suka bahan jins banyak. Lagipula, tak semua orang suka celana jins yang sudah jadi. Kalau beli bahan, jahit sendiri, ukurannya bisa pas di badan," ujar pria yang sudah empat tahun membuka usaha di Cipadu dan punya banyak pelanggan, bahkan dari luar kota. Mulai dari Surabaya, Semarang, sampai Aceh. "Biasanya orang ke sini tak sekadar ingin mencoba rasanya belanja murah, tapi sekalian jalan-jalan. Kadang ibu-ibu pejabat dan artis juga belanja di Cipadu."

Bahan atau kain yang ditawarkan yang ditawarkan di Cipadu sebagain merupakan kain impor atau sisa ekspor yang dijual secara kiloan. Belakangan, banyak juga kios yang menyediakan baju dan perlengkapan busana muslim. Yang juga tak kalah semarak adalah seprei, bedcover, dan bantal aneka ukuran. Yang jelas, harganya jauh lebih murah ketimbang di mal.

Jual Beli bangku Sekolah Oleh Oknum Nakal

Sekitar 20 aktivis pendidikan yang tergabung dalam Student Crisis Center (SCC) Kota Kediri, Rabu (30/6), melakukan aksi unjuk rasa di halaman gedung Sekolah Menengah Kejuruan Negeri 2 Kediri. Mereka mencurigai adanya praktik jual beli bangku sekolah dalam penerimaan siswa baru tahun ini.

Aksi unjuk rasa dilakukan bersamaan dengan pelaksanaan ujian masuk Sekolah Menengah Tingkat Atas di sekolah tersebut. Pengujunjuk rasa melakukan orasi dan membagikan selebaran kepada calon orang tua siswa. “Hati-hati penjualan bangku sekolah,” teriak Ketua SCC Rofiq Al Aziz. Para calon orang tua siswa yang berada di sekolah tersebut ikut menyaksikan aksi unjuk rasa.

Kecurigaan adanya praktik jual beli bangku sekolah, menurut Rofiq, dipicu oleh terbitnya Peraturan Wali Kota Kediri Samsul Ashar Nomor 26 tahun 2010 tentang Pedoman Penerimaan Peserta Didik Baru (PPPDB). Dalam peraturan tersebut tertera mekanisme penerimaan siswa yang mengatur tes akademik bagi calon siswa oleh panitia sekolah. Tes itulah yang ditengarai akan memicu praktik jual beli bangku sekolah karena tidak memiliki ukuran normatif yang jelas.

Anggota Dewan Pendidikan Kota Kediri Syamsul Umam menyatakan dukungannya terhadap aksi unjuk rasa tersebut. Menurut dia penerimaan siswa baru tahun ini memang rawan penyimpangan dan modul jual beli bangku sekolah. Bahkan Syamsul menengarai adanya indikasi kecurangan dalam pelaksanaan ujian masuk di 16 sekolah hari ini.

Hari ini ribuan calon siswa SMA memperebutkan bangku sekolah yang diidamkan. Berbeda dengan tahun sebelumnya yang hanya menggunakan nilai ujian nasional (NUN), kali ini mereka harus mengikuti ujian yang dilakukan di sekolah masing-masing. Materi yang diujikan adalah Matematika, Bahasa Indonesia, Bahasa Inggris, IPA, dan Psikologi. Mereka harus menjawab 110 pertanyaan dengan model pilihan ganda.

Five Strategies for Leveraging Your Online Social Networks

by E. Chandlee Bryan

In less than five years, Facebook has emerged as a household name and now has more than 70 million active users, according to Facebook statistics. A recent ExecuNet newsletter reports that "60 percent of wealthy Americans with an average income of $287,000/year and net worth of $2.1 million participate in online social networks, compared to just 27 percent a year ago." These individuals belong to an average 2.8 networks.


While online social networks are useful in terms of helping you make connections, developing a great "brand" identity and maintaining a good online reputation is of critical importance. This article will provide five strategies for creating online social networking that will help you build your reputation and leverage your contacts


Five Strategies for Using Online Networking

  • Be Selective. It's not who you know, it is "who knows you back." Connect only with friends and colleagues who will speak favorably of you, and who you will recommend to others.
  • Be a Good Friend. One of the best ways to create loyalty, brand identity and a good online reputation is to share non-proprietary information that is of potential interest to your contacts. You can greatly increase the value of your network by sharing what you know. A great way to learn of potential topics of interest to your friends is to create Google News Alerts or feeds that will send you automatic alerts with current information.
  • Be Polite and Cautious. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it all. Remember that adding comments to blogs and uploading pictures can leave a permanent trail and written record. Posting information online is like sending a postcard -- anyone can see it, and it could get in the hand of the wrong person.
  • Be Vigilant. Many employers search the Web prior to making interview invitations or employment offers. Be careful how you share personal information. For example, never Twitter (see sidebar, To Twitter or Not to Twitter) about a job offer until you've accepted, or Tweet about a resignation. Negative comments can spread like a nasty pandemic. A general rule of thumb: if your mom would be embarrassed, publish under a pseudonym if you must. Set up a Google News Alert to monitor information about you that is available on the web -- and request removal of negative comments or inaccurate information.
  • Be Transparent. Share information about your career, your interests, and what's important to you. Update your info regularly with care. The more your contacts know of your interests, the more they can be of help to you.

Boss, Apakah Tim Anda Tetap Mempertahankan Produktifitasnya Saat Anda Pergi?

Pernah mendengar peribahasa kucing pergi, tikus menari? Peribahasa ini menggambarkan betapa bahagianya anak buah saat atasan atau pemimpin mereka pergi meninggalkan kantor. Dilanda euphoria sesaat, seringkali tanpa disadari karyawan mengabaikan pekerjaan dan tanggung jawab. Terlebih jika pemimpin pergi cukup lama, perasaan bebas dari kekangan terasa seperti angin segar disela rutinitas kantor yang membosankan.

Ketika Anda alias si boss kembali ke kantor, Anda mendapati beberapa pekerjaan yang terbengkalai, muncul kelalaian menjalankan tanggung jawab sehingga produktifitas menurun. Hal ini pada akhirnya berdampak pada satu kenyataan: target tak terpenuhi. Setelah melakukan evaluasi, Anda tidak melihat adanya masalah yang berarti kecuali ketiadaan Anda sebagai pemimpin yang terbiasa mengawasi mereka.

Idealnya, tim Anda tidak kehilangan ritme kerja dan produktifitas walaupun pemimpinnya tidak mengawasi sepanjang hari. Tentu saja Anda ingin membangun tim yang bisa mempertahankan performa dan kinerjanya tanpa micro management dan campur tangan dalam setiap aspek pekerjaan. Siapapun mengimpikan anggota tim yang menjalankan pekerjaannya karena rasa tanggung jawab, bukan karena ada bos yang mengawasi di belakang mereka sepanjang waktu. Sebelum hal ini terlanjur terjadi atau terulang kembali, ada beberapa tips yang bisa membantu :

  1. Persiapkan dari awal.
    Ciptakan lingkungan yang mendorong mereka bekerja secara mandiri tanpa pengawasan Anda sepanjang waktu. Tunjukkan bahwa Anda percaya bahwa mereka akan menyelesaikan tugas dan mencapai target, terlebih lagi jika mereka telah lama ada di tim Anda. Tanamkan sense bahwa mereka bertanggung jawab atas setiap pekerjaan yang diberikan kepada mereka. Biarkan mereka bekerja dengan cara mereka sendiri selama hal tersebut tidak bertentangan dengan nilai yang dianut perusahaan. Jangan membuat perkembangan karakter dan keterampilan mereka mandek karena terbiasa ‘disuapi’ oleh pemimpinnya.

  2. Delegasikan.
    Jangan bertugas keluar sebelum menetapkan siapa yang sementara akan memegang tanggung jawab Anda. Pemegang kekuasaan temporary ini bisa wakil, anggota senior tim atau orang lain yang kompentensi dan pribadinya Anda percayai. Anda memang tidak bisa mengharapkan orang tersebut memberikan efek seperti layaknya seorang pemimpin terhadap anggota tim, namun yang perlu diciptakan adalah sense bahwa walaupun pemimpin absent sementara waktu, ada orang yang yang memegang tanggung jawab tersebut.

  3. Detailkan.
    Jelaskan kepada pengganti sementara hal rutin yang harus dikerjakan dan laporan yang harus diberikan pada Anda secara berkala. Pastikan bahwa pengganti tersebut memiliki kompetensi dan kemampuan untuk memegang tanggung jawab lebih sementara waktu. Rincikan hal yang bisa diputuskan oleh karyawan tersebut dan hal yang tetap harus melalui persetujuan Anda.

  4. Umumkan.
    Terutama jika Anda harus bertugas ke luar cukup lama, sampaikan secara resmi kepada anggota tim, termasuk informasi bahwa Anda telah menunjuk orang yang akan memegang posisi Anda sementara. Informasikan hal yang bisa diselesaikan melalui pengganti Anda atau tetap melalui Anda. Jangan lupa untuk menyampaikan bahwa Anda mengharapkan performa dan target tetap berjalan seperti biasa.

  5. Be accessible.
    Tugas di luar kota tidak membuat Anda serta merta kehilangan kontak dengan anggota tim. Terlebih dengan perkembangan tekhnologi, rasanya tidak ada hal yang tidak bisa dikomunikasikan hanya karena halangan jarak. Tetap jalin komunikasi dengan pengganti Anda dan anggota tim untuk menanyakan progress pekerjaan dan hal yang membutuhkan persetujuan Anda.

  6. Remember!
    Ciptakan suasana kerja yang akan mendukung berkembangnya rasa tanggung jawab karyawan Anda sejak awal

By danah boyd,



(CNN) -- Facebook's privacy problems have been in the news ... again.

Although complaints may have started deep in the blogosphere, even Time Magazine has made them its cover story.

In response, Facebook announced a new privacy model to address complaints that it's too darn hard to actually navigate privacy settings on Facebook. (Well, duh.)

It's not yet clear whether Facebook's changes will satiate the Facebook citizenry (let alone the rabid critics), but the conversations about privacy settings tend to emphasize only a fraction of the core concerns.

Facebook rightfully believes that it's important to give users control over their settings, to empower them to make decisions about what's accessible. But Facebook can also be condescending, suggesting that they know what's best for their users because they have so much data about them (which they do).

Unfortunately, Facebook's data tells them a lot about what people do but little about why they do it. They know that people aren't quitting Facebook, but that doesn't mean that users aren't frustrated or concerned (or would be if they understood what was happening).

Don't get me wrong -- the privacy settings are confounding even for the most experienced digerati and I'm very glad that they're addressing this fundamental issue.

But in doing so, I hope that they realize that the main reason for so much public outrage goes beyond privacy settings. The issue is fundamentally about trust and informed consent.

When people share information with Facebook, they become vulnerable to Facebook. They trust Facebook to respect their interests. Facebook has the power to expose people in ways that make their lives really miserable.

Because of that power, it's crucial that they stop telling users what's best for them and start engaging in a more meaningful dialogue.

Changing things and then forcing users to opt out is manipulative. Instead, they should be seeking informed consent -- actively working with users to help make sure that they understand what's at stake in their choices.

It is unacceptable for a company like Facebook to trick people into "consenting" to make their data more visible than they might think that it is.

People should be able to understand Facebook's changes and have choices available that allow them to make appropriate decisions. When Facebook changed its privacy settings in December, far too many people clicked on through without realizing that a few mouse clicks meant that they were exposing their status updates to the world.

Many people may know exactly how not-private their Facebook profile or updates are. But do they? I recommend using ReclaimPrivacy to scan your privacy settings.

Keep in mind that "Everybody" is more than the people searching for you on Facebook -- this includes every company or individual who wants to use your information for any purpose.

In many ways, it's more accessible than simply posting something on a public website and waiting for Google to find it. And keep in mind that "Friends-of-Friends" means more than the people that you'd invite to a birthday party.

I talked with a young woman who vowed that she'd never friend her mother; she didn't realize that if she friended her aunt and her aunt friended her mother than "Friends-of-Friends" included her mother. Do people really know who is included in their "Friends-of-Friends?"

Facebook doesn't just need to fix its privacy settings. It needs to fix its attitude and repair its relationship with its users. Facebook isn't just a space for users to share; it is built on the backs of people and profits off of the data people entrust to them. An abusive relationship is simply unacceptable.

Facebook must go beyond paternalism and start empowering users to help guide the future of the service. It starts with committing to an opt-in approach to changes and developing features that allow users to have complete transparency as to how their data is exposed to, and used by, third parties.

It then requires innovating ways to actively engage participants. Facebook built a platform for mass sharing, but if it wants to change the world, it must also develop mechanisms for informed participation.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Making Your Home Office a Success

These days there is an ever-increasing trend of people working from their homes. And it is easy to see why; working at home is cheaper and more convenient than commuting to an office.

However, as can be expected with this thriftiness and convenience, working at home comes with a certain risk: that of distractions and temptations to laze around the house having fun or relaxing.

When it comes to working out of a home office, there are many things that can stand in the way of your productivity. This article will outline a few of them and recommend ways to avoid them and get the most out of the time you spend working at home.


Avoid Distraction at all Cost

The most important thing to avoid while working at home is distraction. This can come in many forms, but will always detract from your working abilities. The most common source of distractions, unsurprisingly, is you.

Since so many at-home jobs these days involve computers, it is easier than ever to spend a few minutes here and there surfing the net or listening to music. But a few minutes here and there can add up to more than expected.

It is important to keep your workplace free of entertaining distractions. For many people this means having two different personal computers: one for work and one for play. This will help you stay focused on the task at hand. You will be amazed at how much more work you get done when you spend the entire day working with no messing around!


Home Office Organization Techniques

Another way to ensure that you get the most out of the time you spend working at home is to make sure that your office is optimally organized. Simply having the most expensive desk, chair, and shelving available is not enough; your home office’s furnishings have to mesh with one another.

In other words, you should consider things like how much space they occupy before purchasing them. Doing so will help you come up with an office layout that is maximally efficient. In these days where people are either tight on money or tight on space, or both, something like the Techni Mobili Computer Desk is a popular choice.


What Room of the House to Use

Another factor that will contribute to the efficiency of the time you spend in your home office is its location. You should make sure the area you have set aside to do at-home work is not used for other purposes, if possible. It does not take any more than a person walking by to distract you from your work and require you to spend extra time refocusing your attention.

As far as time is concerned, every little bit adds up, and, as the saying goes, “time is money.” There are other factors associated with your home office’s location that you should also consider. For example, how much sunlight gets to your office during the time you work?

How many electrical outlets are available to you without using a surge protector? Do you have space to perform all the working actions you need to perform? And finally, do you feel comfortable working in the area you have chosen?


The All-Important Office Desk

The office desk you choose to use is one of the major factors determining how comfortable your working area will be. For this reason, it is important to put a large amount of planning into the purchase of your office desk. Available models vary according to available features, quality of materials used, storage space, etc.


It is important to know your needs before beginning to shop for a desk. For example, you should not buy a desk with four drawers intended to store paper files if your work does not involve keeping any kind of paper records. Office desks can be expensive, and picking one that suits rather than exceeds your needs is a great way to save some money.


Sit on It for a While

Women at a deskPicking the right office chair is another great way to save. It can be tempting to buy the most expensive, comfortable chair on the market, justifying it as a “business expense,” but ultimately you should consider how much time you plan on spending sitting in the chair each day.

If your back can handle sitting at a cheap chair for the few hours per day you spend working at home, you can save serious dollars by purchasing an inexpensive chair or using one you already have around the house. All things considered, the most important thing to consider when planning the layout of your home office is practicality; does your design allow you to complete the work you need to complete in a clutter- and stress-free environment?

If not, try to come up with a plan for reducing the elements involved with your home office that are cutting into your efficiency. And remember, your home office is yours; there is nobody to blame for things not getting done but yourself.
