Phishing also (be) attacked Outlook


Usually phishing attack friendship sites such as Facebook, MySpace or Friendster. However, do not relax once, the article has found evidence that phishing can also attack the email account, one of Microsoft Outlook. 

This was conveyed by Sarah Calaunan (analyst from Trend Micro). Sarah reported a phishing attack that led to Microsoft Outlook. That attack was aimed at Outlook users who will direct the user to perform re-configuration of Outlook. 

Like phishing action on friendship sites, Microsoft Outlook users will be redirected to a site called Microsoft.com. There, users will be directed back toward the charging column confidential data to sign. And this is where the user's confidential data was stolen.

Sangiang Beach



Despite the conservation of parks and wildlife sanctuary, Pulau Sangiang and Ujungkulon not escape from environmental destruction. Human development and thus become the main trigger. 
The sun began to bow down in the horizon while the boat to the island together Sangiang. Unfold in front of us-journalists and the staff of the Ministry of Environment (KLH) - a scene that is less harmonious. An island with a mangrove thicket start low. Appear roofless buildings damaged in several locations. 
”Maaf, kalau bisa jangan terlalu lama, sebab nanti malam tempat ini akan dijadikan latihan Kopassus (Komando Pasukan Khusus -red),” ujar seorang lelaki berbadan tegap. Of course journalists surprised and mengernyitkan forehead. Training Kopassus in an island that is set as the Nature Park? But as the SH and fellow journalists, others already very tired journey through the sea for four hours from Anyer, Banten, we do not get much respect these military activities. A clear, defined as the area of Nature Tourism since October 12th 1991 that is not appropriate as the tourist attraction called natural. 

Old Cases 
How does not, other than the very quiet, the island was not quite have the facilities as tourist attractions. Local residents is not visible, because the island is not terhuni. Only a handful of staff try to keep it visible. Some of the ruins of buildings visible here and there. The in, the more uncomfortable seen. Mangrove swamps is broken, the pavement began to break. Land area of 528.15 hectares and 710 hectares of water is not really known as a place to support the tour. 
"It was the building of the former PT Pondok Kalimaya White (PKP), which first took place membagun want this," said Ir. Soleh Setiawan, Banten Bapedalda officer to the location in the SH, the weekend set. PT PKP had obtained permission in 1993 to become a contractor in Sangiang was problematic since proven to mangrove destruction, coral reefs and forests around the coast. Now permission has been revoked, and leaving damage that can not even fixed. 
Soleh menandaskan environmental popularity since it began in 1993 when PT PKP operates as a builder of nature tourism. This case popularity in 2003 when the Government of Banten province demanded that the Ministry of Forestry (MoF) revoked the license of PT PKP in the island. But so is the rice porridge. The island is now a place Sangiang slipshod left the board. 
In fact, if ditilik, the island entered the village Cikoneng, District Anyer, Serang regency, this has the potential to be developed as tourist attractions. In a number of locations can be found objects and buildings during Japanese occupation, such as buildings, forts, caves, and the rest of the gun barrel as weapons. Sangiang is also a body of water from the sea that stick to the mainland. Conditions make this area the beach is closed mangrove vegetation so that the landscape as a pas tour. 
From around the steep beach, we can see of the ferry from the thatch Bakauheni to Merak. From there we can also see merchant ship in the busy seaside Cilegon nun in the remote. Different to most other tourist islands, this island can still simply called "virgin" was still not much considering the left hands of the city. 
From the exposure Katamsi Nurrasa, a guide from World International Tours and Travel, for tourists who come on the island and the surrounding Sangiang the majority of Japanese tourists is a hobby of fishing. "If Indonesia does not have people who are interested to the islands here. Even if they only come to just relax. Japanese tourists, but the price to rent the boat was fishing for the satisfaction of desire, "said Katamsi understand the subtlety beach Banten tourism.

"From the functions knife that our forefathers and the knife at this time, be able to make tens and even hundreds of thousands of knives. The difference we still stand to make a knife a knife in hand-made," said Momon. 

Raw materials used for steel knives in this place, namely D2, O1, 440C and ATS-34 standard AISI (American Iron & Steel Institute). Some use the Damascus steel of high quality, strong, and able to survive long.

Processed by people who want to work hard and creatively, and pelepah dry banana leaves can be made into high-value goods. Waste banana tree in such a way that dikreasi and ditempel above tripleks into various beautiful paintings, lafad Al-Quran or the image itself. 

Turn a banana tree waste into valuable goods of high art, certainly not as easy to reverse the hands. It takes stamina, does not sit malasan and high creativity. That made Budi Irawan (33), warga Kampung Ciwasmandi, Sukajaya Kelurahan, Kecamatan Purbaratu, Kota Tasikmalaya. 

"More than two years of my work especial pelepah and banana leaves to become like this," said Budi, while showing a line of beautiful paintings and lafad God and Muhammad, in PR Pemkab Tasikmalaya, Thursday (6 / 8). A number of employees who buy a lot of his work, especially lafad Allah and Muhammad is relatively affordable price. 

Budi maintain natural color and pelepah dried banana leaves. To configure the color, he only make the selection of materials tailored to the characters in the painting. To illustrate the water, for example, Budi pelepah just stick to a vertical position with the trunk line that has been selected and has a character similar to painting shadows on the water. 

One of the paintings can be an average of two days. But even if the current mood of the two paintings in one day. All raw materials dicarinya own. Price depends on level of difficulty and beauty, which is around Rp 200 thousand to Rp 1 million. While lafad God or Muhammad measuring tiny dijual Rp 30 thousand pair. 

According to Budi, consumers who purchase products in Tasikmalaya is very limited. Most in demand if the housing-market housing. Occasionally there are government agencies, private or state-owned book painting a model has been prepared by customer. "If there is order, the price is usually more expensive because the quality truly be," he said. 

While the market share not only in Tasikmalaya, but also to Jakarta, a number of cities including Surabaya in East Java and Bali. Uniquely, Budi not bring paintings so. But he memboyong raw materials to the city, destination and start melikus there, tailored to the characteristics of the market share there. 

"In Bali, for example, I paint a lot with the feel of Bali. Material taken from here (Tasikmalaya, Red), there is created new. After a sufficient amount and in a number of dititipkan art shop. I live to receive the money transfer if the painting behavior," said youngest of four brothers who is still single. 
He adds, not only himself that has the expertise to make paintings or other art products. 

"What I know there are four people, but can be more. The average turn junk into art objects valued. We need a venue to showcase the results or our products. If marketed as a way around this, the market for our krerasi it is less, "Budi complaint.

Si Cantik Siem is still be hunted


Although no longer sehebat period jayanya in the 70 years up to 80-an, crafts typical Tasikmalaya, Siem umbrella, was not actually sinking. Thousands of the umbrella and umbrella as well Geulis this was still searching for buyers in other countries. Even in Tasikmalaya own products already difficult search. 

Before 70 years-an umbrella when the umbrella is still called Siem is actually functioning as an umbrella to ward hot sun and rain water. However, China-made umbrellas made of cloth and parasites iron frame, this is slowly starting tersisih. For, in addition to more expensive price, this is the umbrella can easily be damaged even though very beautiful. 

Business umbrella Siem legendary, deceased Syirod in the H Street Panyingkiran, Indihiang District, City of Tasikmalaya, then rotate the brain to maintain the traditional umbrella eksitensi. He began to modify the original hood umbrella dicat plain, replaced by a variety of hand painting. Umbrella function is finally turning to craft goods. 

"From birth situlah Geulis umbrella, which no other umbrella Siem which is converted into a handicraft However cheaper still beautiful," said Ny Asri (33), H Syirod grandchildren, one of the business umbrella Geulis most, which up to now still stand the business forward is hereditary. 

Payung made Syirod H is called an umbrella Geulis because the top party tudungnya decorated beautiful paintings, ranging from painting flowers to nature. Of raw material is derived from bamboo and wood for albasi order. Tudungnya are made of white cloth or paper by a local citizen dekenal with a cloth boeh. 

At the beginning of the launch, stories Asri, the umbrella was so tune citizen, even as it has become a trend, almost in every corner in the City of Tasik have to sell Geulis this umbrella. 

However, the conditions that Luarbiasa is now no longer can be found in the city. Now, the umbrella Geulis difficult search in the general market. Exists only in shops such as souvenir shops in Jalan Raya souvenirs Rajapolah, cross-Tasikmalaya Bandung. 

"Use only the umbrella Geulis make decorations for the market is limited. Only a certain kind of now is still interested, such as tourists or the hotel," said Asri. 

Therefore, according to Asri, Geulis umbrella in recent years is more marketed in Pulau Dewata Bali, not in Java. For the local market than omzetnya limited, also seen from the price is too low a bid. 
"Ironic, indeed, to the local market even own an umbrella Geulis not as valued anymore. Geulis The umbrella is a heritage and our elders become typical product Tasikmalaya," he said. 

While in Bali, omzet sales umbrella Geulis classified in demand bak sweet roasted peanut sale. All purchased by tourists as a by-and for display in each residence. Asri throw themselves at this time umbrella Geulis average 1,000 per month. Consists of 600 umbrellas made of paper and cloth 400 from boeh. With prices ranging from Rp 12,500 to Rp 750 thousand per unit, depending on the size and model of painting materials and hood. 

Order in Bali is actually redundant. But because power production umbrella Geulis limited, many orders eventually rejected. ôPengrajin order, coupling umbrella and a limited number of painters and their age average is over half a century, "said Asri, while mentioning, eyangnya, Cicih grandmother (70) who is also the wife of the deceased Syirod H, including an umbrella painter who is still active. (says the suryaman) 


  
Only the Remaining Five 
Business umbrella Geulis now amounted to only five people, has a long show room in Bali. In addition to further facilitate the marketing, the name also meant as an umbrella umbrella Geulis Tasikmalaya unique in the eyes of the world. 

Despite thousands Geulis umbrella thrown to Bali each month, but not one, brand is determined by the buyer. From Tasikmalaya Geulis sold without an umbrella brand. Then the buyer is given by its own brand as if made in Bali, and eventually even be marketed and exported to some other countries. 

"The desire to open our show room in Bali is not simply usuran marketing, but also have the mission would like to embed identity that the product is an umbrella for this outstanding product is the nickname Tasikmalaya Geulis umbrella," said Ny Asri, a business umbrella Geulis which still survive . 

According to Asri, intention to open the show room in Bali also dilatarbelakangi small marketing prospects in Tasikmalaya own. He even mentions in the business opportunity itself felt dark. Similarly, for inter-city and cross the province, making difficult stub. 

Omzet sales in the craft shops in Jalan Raya Rajapolah, for example, are low. Sales solely on tourists who will go to Pangandaran beach, Ciamis. In addition, the selling price at the level crafter pressed for shops that do not want to risk selling Geulis umbrella with a high price. 

To realize the plan that, in the near future with Asri husband intends to go to Bali to do penjajagan, as well as meet the buyer for this business relationship. According to him, despite the sales process has been for many years with the buyer is running smoothly, but have not met directly. 

"We only have communication via phone only. Niaganya procedure, he gave 50 percent down payment, then we send the goods according to the order. Sometimes misfire and make procurement of capital. But the general run smoothly. Now if we pinch the ball directly to Bali, business akan makin berprospek, "said Asri. (says the suryaman) 

  
Craft scramble order 
OTHER THAN perajinnya because the number of live countdown fingers, threatened the existence of umbrella Geulis the absence of a regeneration piawai order to create an umbrella. Architect framework is now only two people, ie fart Enco and Iking, both living in the area of Kota Baru, Kecamatan Cibeureum, Kota Tasikmalaya. 
Because the "engine" of the framework that this is already loyo, five business Geulis umbrella that still survive, are often confused when the order overflow. Not infrequently they struggle to get the order. The process of regeneration is not there. 

Section, in order to sale value is very low. Compared with wage labor in the factory sand sandals are still lower. Selling price is only Rp 60-120 frames per thousand score, or Rp 3,000 per fruit for the small size. While the process of making the framework of an umbrella Geulis very complicated. His made of bamboo, wood and yarn albasia mattress. 

Both men gaek that is only able to produce 400 units of effort per month. Can be as much a product order diperebutkan five business Geulis umbrella. "We actually waited long stretch since the government support in terms of the regeneration framework. For example opening the training that was held free of charge," please Asri. 

However, he said, the training must be held in outlying regions, where there are many people who need jobs. If in urban areas, there is no peminatnya ascertained due to the low selling price order. "We alone can not determine the price level, because prices payungnya is also very cheap," said Asri.
