What Comes First, Your Brand Name or Your Brand Position?
By
Barry Silverstein
In 1927, Zenith introduced this advertising slogan: "The quality
goes in before the name goes on." That statement is as true today as it
was then -- and it takes on an even greater meaning if we think of it in
broader branding terms.
The fact is, some marketers may be in such a hurry to bring their brand to market that they spend more time trying to think up a clever brand name than they do creating a brand position. But as Zenith implied, you have to build a quality product first, before you put a brand name on it.
In order for that quality product to be effectively marketed, it requires something more than just a brand name. It needs a brand position.
A brand positioning statement establishes a strategy for how you will launch and market your brand.
On the surface, a brand positioning statement looks pretty easy to write, because it is typically very short. But as professional copywriters will tell you, often short copy is much harder to write than long copy, because you have to distill key concepts into a few very well-chosen meaningful words.
Here's what to include in a brand positioning statement:
1. Likely Brand Buyer- This is the person who is most likely to be interested in buying your brand. Often this person is described as being part of your "target audience." The likely brand buyer should be described as specifically as possible: gender, race, age, income, geographic area, employment, interests, etc. Ideally, you will build a descriptive profile of one or more target audiences for your brand.
2. Competition- The statement should position your brand against existing competition so the target audience can distinguish between your brand and someone else's.
3. Product Benefits - The most compelling benefits of the brand.
4. Unique Brand Promise- The unique selling proposition of your brand.
While the components are easy to define, what's behind them is a lot more challenging. The brand positioning statement is really the culmination of having an in-depth understanding of your audience, being knowledgeable about your competition, identifying your product benefits, and carefully defining your brand promise.
The brand positioning statement can be phrased in different ways -- the way you say it isn't nearly as important as what the statement includes.
The most important thing you can do when you create a brand positioning statement is differentiate your brand position.
Today, very few company, product, or service ideas are truly new and unique. You can almost be guaranteed that someone, somewhere, has developed a product or service similar to yours. And even if you bring a unique product or service to market, it won't be long before another company comes out with a look-alike. This is just the nature of the competitive marketplace.
This doesn't mean the situation is hopeless! There are such things as first-mover advantage, which means being first in your category. Federal Express was the first overnight small package delivery service, and to this day, people still say "FedEx it" when they want to ship something overnight. There are also many situations where a brand creates a category and a better competitor arrives to take over the category. Palm, for example, was the first company to pioneer the Personal Digital Assistant (PDA) with the Palm Pilot. But the company failed to see the evolution of the category into a combination PDA-smartphone, so other brands like BlackBerry and iPhone quickly grabbed top positions in the category.
The brand positioning statement will help you make sure you are creating a brand position that stands out in a highly competitive marketplace. Put your brand positioning statement to the test: Make sure it has the four elements mentioned above -- and above all, make sure you are doing everything possible to make your brand unique.

Choose the Best Exhibition Design
By
Samra Mandeep
Have you ever visited a trade show or exhibition? What kind of
display materials did you find at the company stalls? The participating
companies use portable display materials to transport them from one
event to the other easily. These companies hire various advertising and
designing companies to create unique display designs for exhibitions.
These advertisers offer different exhibition displays to the companies
to showcase their products and services at the event. They conduct a
thorough research about the company and then select the best suitable
exhibition design for their clients. Modular stands are in trend these
days; the advertisers take care of all the features and requirements of
the displays according to the theme and event. They take responsibility
of all the aspects in creating the display materials for their clients.
The designer considers all the factors to select the best design for the company's booth; they could present their reputation through a video, folder or giveaway items. The planning of the exhibition displays could be done after deciding whether they need a permanent display or a temporary one. These could be assembled and dismantled in a few minutes, and could be carried easily in a storage bag. This would save the cost of creating new displays for different products. The exhibition design could help the company in gaining reputation in the industry among the other competitors. These could be the attention grabber and thus it is worth making the investment.
Hiring an experienced designer to create custom displays would definitely yield positive results for your business. Another most important feature of the exhibition displays is its portability and ease of transportation with the help of a carrying bag. The use of magnets or pins would give a temporary solution to attach different graphic panels at the trade shows. These stands are flexible and can be easily adjusted even in a small space. These are best suitable for short-term fairs or trade shows as they generally have either much less or much more space for the exhibition design. These types of displays are strong and sturdy; they do not plummet easily with a small breeze. Snap-to-lock poles are used to display different graphics suiting the requirements of the company and the event. Content of these displays complements the look of the booth. These might include furniture or the storage stand that could be readily available or custom designed by the professional designer. The customized displays depend upon the size, shape and different requirements of the exhibiting company.

By
Ethan Nguyen
The Foundation Of How To Sketch People
Learning how to sketch people and the human form can be somewhat challenging but the techniques remain the same as with regular sketching.
To sketch a person, first you should pay attention to the main lines and the direction of movements. At first, try to disregard the details.
Just take a quick look at the figure and sketch out the overall shape. Then fill in the angles where they fit into the shape.
At this stage of learning how to sketch people, you are more interested in the proportion of the figure and getting that right than you are with all the extra details. You can practice this by making quick sketches of poses.
Don't be embarrassed if your quick sketches doesn't come out perfect. We all have to start from somewhere. We all are beginners who didn't have a clue about how to sketch people at some point and mistakes help us get better.
How To Sketch People Using Templates
As you continue to practice doing these sketches, you'll find that you develop a template for the different body types: man, woman, child.
This is good. It means that you are developing a feel for drawing the human figure. Use these templates to help you draw the outline of your sketches of people and then fill the details.
Here are some quick things to notice about the human figure that you should include in your sketches of people: as we age, our body begins to droops. Our head and arms will also sag a little.
As a beginner, try to avoid making your sketches too small. Smaller sketches are more difficult to draw as you have to make very fine details.
But in addition, you won't learn as much with smaller sketches because it will be harder for you to spot your weak points. For this reason, larger sketches tends to be better.
Sketching Hair
Many people find it hard to sketch hair. The good news is that sketching hair is a lot easier than drawing hair. The key to sketching hair is to do it with delicacy and to look for stray hairs to break up the mass of hair.
Remember to make your pencil stroke in the direction of the hair flow. To sketch long and straight hair, use swinging strokes that are close together.
Also, if the people that you are sketching are in motion be sure to ruffle up the hair to make it look like it's moving.
Hair also changes with age. Younger hair tends to be thicker and will thin out as you age. Be sure to depict this in your sketches.
How to sketch people is a complex subject and it is impossible to cover everything in one short article. I've done my best to lay out some important points that you should keep in mind when sketching people.
Keep these drawing tips in mind and you should find that sketching people will become a much easier task.

Improve Your Sketching Using These Sketching Tips
In this article, I'm going to give you 10 quick and easy sketching tips to help you become better sketching artist.
Becoming a skilled sketching artist requires many hours of practice and studies but I've notice a number of common mistakes that beginning artists tends to make.

Tips #2: Train yourself to see lines in everything that you look at. Look for the horizontal and vertical lines. Follow the curves and focus on them.
By practicing this sketching tip, you will teach yourself to draw what you see and you'll begin to draw naturally as it becomes a habit.
Tip #3: Be aware of the position of your head while sketching. The slightest movement of your head can chance the perspective of what you are looking at and alter the look of your sketch.
I'm not saying there is a right and wrong perspective, but if you start out a sketch with one perspective, you need to make sure that it stays consistence.
Tip #4: It's normal to stare at a blank piece of paper and be intimidated by it. If you find yourself in this position, simply draw a light border on your page. Not only will this break you out of your paralysis by moving your hand, but the border will help you choose a subject that will fit into the area.
Tip #5: If you want to make an object look lighter, there is a way to do it without using an eraser. Simply put something darker next to it. This is the contrast principle at work and the brain can not tell the difference.
Play around with this sketching tip and you'll find that you can do a lot of cool things.
Tip #6: Before you drive into a sketch, make light outlines of the shapes to make sure that everything will fit into the page. This way your proportions will look better and you won't find yourself running out of space in the middle of your sketch.
Tip #7: Sketch faster. Practice sketching faster and you'll improve how you see and also your understanding of lines and form. Plus your strokes will look more fluid and smooth.
Tip #8: If you are trying to sketch something that look complicated, don't be intimidated. Just break it down into different shapes. Everything a comprised of the basic shapes: square, round, cylinder, and cone.
Tip#9: A great tool to have with you while sketching is a Q-tip. It smalls and easy to carry around. Plus it works great for blending your pencil strokes.
Tip #10: Pay attention to the light source when you sketch. Shading is crucial to making a drawing look realistic so make sure you get it right. If the light source is on the right of your subject, then the shadows should be consistently on the left.
These sketching tips might seem simple (and they are) but don't underestimate their importance. Keep these sketching tips in mind while you draw and your works will come out much better.

Retail Merchandising Planograms - How to Use Them Effectively
By
Romeo Cliff Richards
What are the benefits of Retail Merchandising Planograms?
The perception is that if your product is good, it will sell itself. However, visual merchandisers nowadays know better - effective advertising and displaying of merchandise are as important as quality. They understand the importance of planograms; the sketches outline the placement of products on a store shelf or retail display. Planograms ensure consistency of product placement between locations, and suppliers use the sketches to enforce the display of their product which results in higher sales volume. Independent retailers owners utilize planograms to maximize shelf space and enhance the look of merchandise. Starting with an effective planogram is one way to ensure products are restocked and maintained in a way that enhances display quality.
What are Retail Merchandising Planograms?
A planogram is a diagram or model that indicates the placement of retail products on shelves in order to maximize sales. Also known as plano-grams, plan-o-grams, schematics and POGs, planograms are a tool used in visual merchandising.
How is a Retail Merchandising Planogram prepared?
There are various pieces of software available which help to create planograms. Planogram software helps retailers to draw three dimensional diagrams of the store and help them visualize the overall image of the store.
How to Implement a Planogram:
Below are guidelines for effective planogram implementation:
1. Determine the desired effect of the planogram. If you're a clothing retailer, your objective might be to hang tops at an angle that shows off their beauty, and to make space for folded and stacked stock such as sweaters and pants. If you run a general merchandise store, displaying as many brand options as possible on your shelves might be the desired result.
2. Sketch the backdrop of your planogram. This is the space on or within which you'll place your product, be it a section of shelves or the floor plan of the entire store. Make your sketch to gauge and include measurements of every section of space; this will help you calculate how many products you can allocate to each space.
3. Organize your products in the planogram. Draw numbered representations of each item onto the planogram space; include a key to provide a description of each product, including brand and SKU. If your aim is to maximize space, compare various product combinations and use the one which allows you to display the most products.
4. Place your products on the shelf or store floor according to your diagram. Modify the planogram as you see fit; a product placing which maximizes space might also appear crowded and make it difficult to shop.
5. A planogram which aims to feature a line of clothing might not appear well under certain lighting arrangements or in a particular section of the store.
6. Arrange and rearrange the product placement using actual products until you are satisfied that it is well arranged and you have utilized your store space well.
7. Finally, change the planogram to reflect the changes you made at store level and ensure the format is replicated in other store locations of similar measurement.

How to Maximize Retail Display Space
By
Romeo Cliff Richards
Why Maximize Display Space?
Have you ever experienced visiting a supermarket and only coming home with half of what you had on your shopping list? This is quite disappointing especially when you expect to get everything that you need. The next time you go shopping, you will probably go to another store.
One of the keys to getting ahead of the competition in the retail industry is to provide all the shopping needs of the customers. In retail merchandising, the concept of "out of sight, out of mind" applies. When customers see the item in the product display shelf, they will most likely buy the product. They seldom ask whether a product is available or not. With the increasing need of the consumers nowadays, and the constant change in trend and consumer preference, it is a wise move on the part of the vendor to maximize the potential of their merchandise display. The more product variations there are in the store, the more attractive it is to the consumers. This could result in increased customer satisfaction, sales and profit.
What Are the Benefits of Maximizing Display Space?
Maximizing display space can give the store owner multiple benefits. The most important benefits are the following:
• More products SKUs. The more space you have to display merchandise the more products you can stock in your store.
• More supplier support. With tough competition in the retail business, all suppliers want their products to be allocated a space in a store, preferably in the most conspicuous area. Most suppliers are willing to bargain for marketing support and higher space rental just to get the space that they want.
• More organized and controlled displays. An organized and well-controlled display area results in the maximization of space. When your store is well-organized it is easier to monitor your stock. There are also less incidents of pilferage and theft.
• Increased consumer satisfaction. Aside from good quality products and services that the store offers, availability is also very important to the consumer. Product prices prove irrelevant in comparison to convenience and quality.
• Increased sales and profit. With increased consumer satisfaction, increase sales and profit follow. A word of mouth based on personal experience is the oldest but still the most effective marketing tool.
How to Maximize Display Space:
Maximizing display space does not necessarily mean overcrowding of stock. Disorganized and rambled stock are a total turn off to customers. It does not provide the appropriate mood for a wonderful shopping experience. When maximizing display space, a retailer must bear in mind that the main goal is to properly allocate a space for as many products as possible. All merchandise inside the warehouse must be displayed on the store floor. A good result begins with a good plan and a good plan is a result of a knowledgeable, well-informed and creative mind. The first thing therefore is to equip one's self with the concepts of retail and visual merchandising.
How to Implement Display Space Allocation:
In maximizing display space, the following simple suggestions can be proved effective.
1. Clean the shelves and remove products that are either expired, over stocked or discontinued.
2. Categorize your stock according to size, type, usage or brand.
3. Tighten up peg proximity if possible. Products should be so close as to almost be touching.
4. Avoid too much product duplication.
5. For clothing, check the sizes. Display only one unit of the item for each size available.
6. Use display fixtures that can hold several items such as shelves, drawers, hooks, etc.
7. Check the warehouse. Be sure everything is represented on the sales floor.

Steve Jobs - Thomas Suarez (kanan)
Steve Jobs terkenal dengan pesona, kejeniusan, dan visi masa depannya. Karakter dan sifat Jobs inilah yang menjadi fokus semua orang, sehingga memunculkan pertanyaan, siapa "The Next Steve Jobs".
Pertanyaan tersebut sepertinya akan segera terjawab. Dalam sebuah acara sharing teknologi TEDx ManhattanBeach, seorang anak yang masih duduk di bangku kelas 6 SD tampil memukau saat mempresentasikan produk ciptaan dan perusahaan startup-nya ke audience, dengan penuh percaya diri dan bahasa tubuh yang mengingatkan publik akan mendiang Steve Jobs.
Anak ini bernama Thomas Suarez, seorang anak berusia 12 tahun asal California, AS. Dia adalah pendiri sebuah perusahaan startup CarrotCorp yang saat ini sedang mengembangkan aplikasi untuk sistem operasi Apple iOS.
Seperti yang dikutip dari Daily Mail, Thomas Suarez ternyata memang seorang pengagum Steve Jobs, telah tertarik membuat program komputer sejak taman kanak-kanak dan belajar secara otodidak beberapa bahasa pemrograman, seperti Phyton, C, dan Java.
Karya pertamanya, yaitu Earth Fortune hadir di akhir tahun 2010 lalu, sebuah program yang memungkinkan perubahan warna bumi berdasarkan peruntungan penggunanya.
Saat ini, Thomas tetap fokus menimba ilmu di sekolah formal sambil tetap mengelola perusahaan startup-nya, CarrotCorp.
Presentasinya di TEDx ini juga sedang memaparkan produk-produk yang dihasilkan oleh perusahaan startup-nya itu. Selain memukau seluruh audience yang hadir, Thomas membuat penasaran dengan memamerkan sebuah tagline yang berbunyi, "Uploading pictures will never be the. Coming soon".
Apakah Thomas Suarez dapat menggantikan idolanya itu, Steve Jobs? Setidaknya dia mempunyai potensi untuk menuju ke arah sana.
Berikut penampilan Thomas Suarez di acara TEDx ManhattanBeach,
How to Get Rich as a Cartoon Animator
By
Neal R Warner
I was a professional animator and animation director for
television series and major motion pictures for thirty years and I was
the Instructor of Character Animation for the Freshman class of Cal Arts
for a couple of years. As an independent producer of animated films I
followed my muse and made award winning* animated music videos. So I
have some experience in the Animation Industry.
My students at Cal Arts would occasionally ask how one gets rich as an animator. Back in the Second Golden Age of Animation newspapers reported that Disney animator Glen Keane made a million dollars and the students came to believe this was the going rate. I pointed out that Glen Keane's salary made the news because it was the exception, not the rule. Also, the papers didn't give details. The million could have been a potential if the films he worked on became exceptionally profitable, he might have been given royalties and his million may take the rest of his life to accrue. It made a big impression on the students never the less so I tried to answer their question of how to get rich in animation.
The quick, easy answer is; you don't. Again, Glen Keane was an extremely rare example and very, very few individuals will ever attain his status. He rose to the top of his field when the field was blossoming into what became known as "The Second Golden Age of Animation" and was during the economic boom time of the 1990s. Like the good old times of the Clinton years, the Animation Industry in America is long gone for pen and pencil artists but I did develop a plan to give the students back then that I would still recommend today.
To get rich in the field of Animation one must own a character that becomes a "star". Please notice, I said "own" and not "create" since there is a not too subtle difference. Most of the famous and successful animation legends we remember from our youth did not actually create their signature characters but hired a designer to do it for them. Does anyone remember who actually designed the character of Fred Flintstone for Hanna- Barbera?
First, you need to have a character with "star" potential which means a unique enough concept that is readily identifiable. An example might be my former Cal Arts student's creation for Nickelodeon Studios, Dexter of Dexter's Lab. Take one quick look at him and you can instantly tell he is a "child scientist". Or another student's show, The Power Puff Girls who are super heroes that are in Kindergarten. In both of these cases they took a simple character; a little boy and three little girls, and gave them "jobs" traditionally belonging only to adults; scientist and super heroes. Instantly understandable and funny. It is also extremely important that these characters are of very simple graphic design, easy to animate, easy to recognize at a distance and easy to print onto a Happy Meal cup.
In the world of animated music video, the studio that created Paula Abdul's cartoon costar, MC Scat Kat tried to catapult him into his own cartoon show. The attempt wasn't successful but they had the right idea. More often it's the live action musicians who get their own cartoon shows when turned into animated characters themselves.
Back to the plan. Secondly, don't even try to pitch your new character to animation producers, they pay good money to have employees working in nine to five jobs to come up with show ideas, they're not going to buy one from off the street. The best you'll get is a show that looks amazingly like yours coming out a year after you pitched it and were told, "Thanks, but no thanks."
So, what do you do? You do what a professional would do if you in fact did have a show. You would create merchandise based on your character and sell it as many ways as you could. You could start by publishing a small children's book starring your character, print up copies and give those copies away for free to every daycare center, pediatrician's waiting room, pediatric dentist's waiting room, grammar school library and anywhere young children are given books to share. This way you "test market" your character and when you then take T shirts, other articles of clothing, toys, lunch boxes and whatever other merchandise and products on which you can print your character's likeness to the local children's clothing boutiques you can claim that every kid in the city already knows, and hopefully loves, your character. Of course, you've also included a website address in all the books from which the parents can buy more products directly. With sites like Cafe Press it isn't even necessary to produce these products yourself. It can be done on demand with no up front costs at all.
Sure, beside the talent needed to create your star and write and illustrate his adventures you'll have to bust your hump distributing your freebies, soliciting vendors and collecting whatever moneys are owed to you which is about a half dozen separate full time jobs, but once your character proves his power as a product spokesman, or spokeswoman, or spokesturtle or spokesrabbit or whatever it is, television producers will come to you. Think of a cartoon show as just another revenue stream for your character, and one of the last.

I pointed out that Glen Keane's salary made the news because it was the exception, not the rule. Also, the papers didn't give details. The million could have been a potential if the films he worked on became exceptionally profitable, he might have been given royalties and his million may take the rest of his life to accrue. It made a big impression on the students never the less so I tried to answer their question of how to get rich in animation.
The quick, easy answer is; you don't. Again, Glen Keane was an extremely rare example and very, very few individuals will ever attain his status. He rose to the top of his field when the field was blossoming into what became known as "The Second Golden Age of Animation" and was during the economic boom time of the 1990s. Like the good old times of the Clinton years, the Animation Industry in America is long gone for pen and pencil artists but I did develop a plan to give the students back then that I would still recommend today.
To get rich in the field of Animation one must own a character that becomes a "star". Please notice, I said "own" and not "create" since there is a not too subtle difference. Most of the famous and successful animation legends we remember from our youth did not actually create their signature characters but hired a designer to do it for them. Does anyone remember who actually designed the character of Fred Flintstone for Hanna- Barbera?
First, you need to have a character with "star" potential which means a unique enough concept that is readily identifiable. An example might be my former Cal Arts student's creation for Nickelodeon Studios, Dexter of Dexter's Lab. Take one quick look at him and you can instantly tell he is a "child scientist". Or another student's show, The Power Puff Girls who are super heroes that are in Kindergarten. In both of these cases they took a simple character; a little boy and three little girls, and gave them "jobs" traditionally belonging only to adults; scientist and super heroes. Instantly understandable and funny. It is also extremely important that these characters are of very simple graphic design, easy to animate, easy to recognize at a distance and easy to print onto a Happy Meal cup.
In the world of animated music video, the studio that created Paula Abdul's cartoon costar, MC Scat Kat tried to catapult him into his own cartoon show. The attempt wasn't successful but they had the right idea. More often it's the live action musicians who get their own cartoon shows when turned into animated characters themselves.
Back to the plan. Secondly, don't even try to pitch your new character to animation producers, they pay good money to have employees working in nine to five jobs to come up with show ideas, they're not going to buy one from off the street. The best you'll get is a show that looks amazingly like yours coming out a year after you pitched it and were told, "Thanks, but no thanks."
So, what do you do? You do what a professional would do if you in fact did have a show. You would create merchandise based on your character and sell it as many ways as you could. You could start by publishing a small children's book starring your character, print up copies and give those copies away for free to every daycare center, pediatrician's waiting room, pediatric dentist's waiting room, grammar school library and anywhere young children are given books to share. This way you "test market" your character and when you then take T shirts, other articles of clothing, toys, lunch boxes and whatever other merchandise and products on which you can print your character's likeness to the local children's clothing boutiques you can claim that every kid in the city already knows, and hopefully loves, your character. Of course, you've also included a website address in all the books from which the parents can buy more products directly. With sites like Cafe Press it isn't even necessary to produce these products yourself. It can be done on demand with no up front costs at all.
Sure, beside the talent needed to create your star and write and illustrate his adventures you'll have to bust your hump distributing your freebies, soliciting vendors and collecting whatever moneys are owed to you which is about a half dozen separate full time jobs, but once your character proves his power as a product spokesman, or spokeswoman, or spokesturtle or spokesrabbit or whatever it is, television producers will come to you. Think of a cartoon show as just another revenue stream for your character, and one of the last.

Counting the Cost - 3 Mistakes the Entrepreneurs Make
By
Bruce Hoag
You probably know this already, but before you start a new
business, you need to think about what the cost will be to you. That's
so that you don't get half way through the process and find that you
don't have enough to get you all the way through it.
Costs can take on many guises: they can be for tangible items or intangible items of high value, such as intellectual property. They can be for consumables, such as stationery and printer cartridges. Personnel can double your expenses in no time at all. If office space or another kind of workplace is required, then that, too, can considerably increase your expenses.
One area that is overlooked routinely is the value of the expertise that entrepreneurs bring to their new enterprise. Most people make three mistakes in this respect, all of which concern their time.
1. The first mistake that entrepreneurs make is assuming that time is money. Nothing could be further from the truth. An hour of your time doesn't have the same value as an hour of someone else's time. So comparing units of time is similar to comparing apples and oranges.
2. The second mistake is assuming that people buy time and not value. Apart from as quickly as possible, no one cares how long it will take; they only care about what they'll get for their money. Why force them to think of what they buy in terms of the time it took to produce it?
For example, imagine going into a showroom to buy a new car. Instead of seeing a sticker price that listed the cost of the car, dealer prep (which is nonsense anyway), shipping & taxes, you saw a different list: 47 hours in the molding room at $20.36 per hour, 29 hours assembling the engine at $57.42 per hour, 10 hours in the paint barn @ $69.20, etc. What would you think about that? When you buy a car, you want to know the price of it, not how long it took them to put it together.
3. The third mistake made by entrepreneurs is assuming that their expertise is free.
Just because it's your business doesn't mean that the expertise you bring to it is free; or to think of it another way, is worthless. There's a thing called "opportunity cost" that needs to be evaluated as well. The cost of the opportunity for you to do something else with your abilities and skills needs to be compared to the long-term cost of using them in the new business that you are proposing.
If you had to hire someone to do what you will be doing, there would be a cost for that. When, then, should you assume that if it's your expertise, that makes it free?

Bangunan 'Piramida' Tertua Ditemukan di Garut
Dari hasil penelitian intensif dan uji karbon dipastikan bahwa umur bangunan yang terpendam dalam gunung tersebut lebih tua dari Piramida Giza.
“Dari beberapa gunung yang di dalamnya ada bangunan menyerupai piramid, setelah diteliti secara intensif dan uji karbon dating, dipastikan umurnya lebih tua dari Piramida Giza,” terang Staf Khusus Presiden bidang Bantuan Sosial dan Bencana Andi Arief dalam rilils kepada detikcom, Minggu (22/11/2011).
Sekedar catatan, Piramida Giza selama ini dikenal sebagai piramida tertua dan terbesar dari 3 piramida yang ada di Nekropolis Giza. Dipercaya bahwa piramida ini dibangun sebagai makam untuk firaun dinasti keempat Mesir, Khufu dan dibangun selama lebih dari 20 tahun dan diperkirakan berlangsung pada sekitar tahun 2560 sebelum Masehi.
Andi menerangkan, dalam beberapa waktu ke depan, Tim Katastropik Purba akan melakukan paparan ke publik tentang temuan-temuannya tersebut. Tak hanya soal temuan piramida di Garut tersebut, tim ini nantinya juga akan memaparkan temuan istimewa di kawasan Trowulan, Batu Jaya, beberapa lokasi menhir di Sumatera dan lain-lain.
“Ada temuan mencengangkan tentang uji karbon dating pada 3 lapis kebudayaan di kawasan Trowulan yang terlanjur kita sebut Majapahit pada zaman sejarah masehi itu. Juga tentang temuan-temuan lapisan sejarah di Lamri Aceh dan sekitarnya,” terang Andi.
Terhadap temuan ini, sambung Andi, Tim Katastropik Purba juga akan terus berkoordinasi dengan bidang kepurbakalaan, antropologi, arkeologi, pakar budaya, ahli sejarah dan lainnya. D isamping akan terus berkoordinasi lintas ilmu kebumian sehubungan dengan temuan-temuan sejarah bencana-bencana lokal dan global untuk dicari mitigasinya.
Sekedar catatan, beberapa hasil penelitian Tim Katastropik Purba ini telah disampaikan kepada publik. Diantaranya, rekomendasi agar 3 gunung di Jawa Barat yakni Gunung Kaledong, Gunung Putri, dan Gunung Haruman dijadikan sebagai cagar budaya.
Rekomendasi itu atas dasar penelitian melalui metoda ilmu kebumian, meneliti sumber-sumber bencana alam dan melacak informasi dari masa lalu yang berkaitan dengan kejadian bencana alam katastropik.
Obyek penelitian lain yang berada pada jalur-jalur patahan gempabumi dan gunung api di sepanjang Jawa Barat, Jawa Tengah, Jawa timur, Sumatera, Bali, Nusa Tenggara, Sulawesi, Kalimantan sampai Papua, terus dikaji secara ilmiah.
“Hasil penelitian-penelitian lanjutan tentang ini akan disampaikan ke publik,” pungkas Andi.

Mengenal Tipe-Tipe Sepeda Gunung
Tiap-tiap jenis sepeda memiliki manfaat dan kerugiannya masing-masing. Saat memilih sepeda gunung (MTB), ketahui dimana Anda akan mengendarainya dan jenis rintangan apa yang akan Anda hadapi.
1. Cross country
Sepeda ini juga dikenal dengan sebutan XC. Sepeda ini dirancang untuk jalur off-road dengan rintangan minim hingga menengah. Sepeda ini dibagi menjadi dua yakni, hardtail mountain bike yang suspensinya hanya berada di depan dan full-suspension mountain bike (fulsus) yang meiliki dua suspensi, depan dan belakang.
Menggunakan hardtail mountain bike, Anda bisa memiliki teknik mengayuh yang baik tanpa perasaan seperti memental. Sepeda ini jauh lebih awet dibanding full-suspension mountain bike dan tak terlalu menuntut perawatan.
Pada full-suspension mountain bike, suspensi depan dan belakang terintegrasi pada rangka sepeda. Sepeda ini jauh lebih nyaman dikendarai dibanding hardtail mountain bike. Di beberapa sepeda, suspensi belakangnya (dan juga depan) bisa dimatikan atau tidak berfungsi.
2. Trail
Sepeda ini pada dasarnya merupakan modifikasi cross country namun menggunakan sistem suspensi yang lebih halus untuk mengatasi rintangan yang lebih sulit dan lebih teknis.
Kekurangannya, kayuhan sepeda ini butuh sedikit usaha yang lebih dari pengendaranya akibat meningkatnya suspensi. Tapi saat ini sudah ada teknologi suspensi belakang dan depan yang bisa dimatikan jika tak dibutuhkan.
3. Downhill
Sepeda ini dirancang untuk menuruni bukit. Sepeda ini dibuat seringan mungkin sehingga cocok untuk balapan turun. Karena sepeda ini dirancang untuk menuruni bukit, hal ini membuat sepeda ini sulit menaiki bukit.
4. Freeride
Sepeda ini mirip sepeda downhill namun dirancang agar lebih mudah untuk dikayuh. Sepeda ini merupakan perpaduan cross country dan downhill. Namun, sepeda ini tak akan bekerja sebaik kedua sepeda tersebut jika Anda menginginkan fitur tertentu.
5. Dirt Jump (DJ)
Sepeda ini digunakan untuk melompat, dikendarai di jalan dan balap slalom. Beberapa orang menganggap sepeda ini merupakan versi besar BMX yang memiliki suspensi depan. Sepeda ini dirancang agar kuat menahan beban saat melompat.
Bra Pertama Anti Nuklir
Bra
alias BH ternyata tak cuma berfungsi sebagai penyangga payudara
agar wanita bisa nyaman beraktivitas. Namun ia bisa menjadi
perangkat yang sangat vital untuk menyelamatkan manusia dari radiasi
nuklir.
Ide 'bra ajaib' ini datang dari Elena Bodnar, seorang doktor yang tinggal di Hinsdale, Illinois, AS, yang memiliki pengalaman lolos dari petaka kebocoran pembangkit nuklir di Chernobyl Rusia pada 1986 lalu.
Tak hanya berfungsi untuk mengamankan posisi payudara wanita, bra besutan Elena juga bisa menjadi masker yang mampu memfilter partikel-partikel radiasi berbahaya seperti partikel Iodine-131 saat peristiwa Chernobyl.
Paten bra anti radiasi nuklir
Di AS, wanita asal Ukraina ini, terlibat pada beberapa riset klinis di Electrical Trauma Research Program pada University of Chicago. Ia juga bekerja sama dengan World Health Organization dan International Atomic Energy Agency pada beberapa proyek terkait dengan tragedi nuklir Chernobyl.
Ide Bra besutan Elena ini berhasil memenangkan penghargaan Ig Nobel 2009 untuk kategori kesehatan publik.
"Hadirin dan hadirat, bukankan suatu hal yang indah, bahwa wanita memiliki dua buah payudara, bukan hanya satu? Dengan bra ini, kita, wanita bisa menyelamatkan nyawa seorang pria di dekat kita," kata Elena pada acara penghargaan Ig Nobel, dikutip dari situs CNet.
Elena telah mematenkan hasil temuannya itu, dan kini bra itu telah siap dipasarkan secara komersial mulai 28 September mendatang, di Museum MIT Cambridge, Massachussets, AS.
Diharapkan efek mematikan dari musibah yang terjadi pada instalasi nuklir, bisa dikurangi dengan fungsi ganda bra temuan Elena. Dan yang pasti, kata Elena, ukuran bra -baik ukuran kecil maupun ukuran besar - tidak masalah.

10 Inovasi Transportasi Manusia Di Masa Depan
10 Inovasi Transportasi Manusia Di Masa Depan
Masa
depan transportasi kita sangatlah unik dan luar biasa. Ini mungkin
masih konsep, tapi sangatlah tidak mungkin bahwa akan terealisasi.
1. Robot Sepeda Untuk Mengayuh Sepedamu
Ingin berkeliling dengan sepeda? menikmati angin di pagi hari, tapi anda terlalu malas untuk mengayuh sepeda?Santai ini jawabannya, dengan sepeda ini anda tidak perlu mengayuh sendiri, karena sepeda ini diayuh oleh bantuan robot. Robot ini akan ada dibelakang anda, anda hanya perlu naik sepeda dan biarkan sang robot melakukan pekerjaannya. Berat sepeda dan robot sekitar 200 kg, jadi ini tidak naik ringan, tetapi itu adalah gaya - tarik menarik, dan konsep yang menakutkan.
2. Transportasi Monorail Manusia
Sebuah monorel orang yang bisa dikendalikan kemanapun.
Saat ini hanya di sebuah taman hiburan Selandia Baru, monorel pedal ini terdiri dari rel panjang dengan 'pod' individu tergantung ke bawah, yang bisa naik sampai 30 mil per jam.
3. Kendaraan Pemandangan
Ini adalah mobil yang di design untuk melihat pemandangan.
Untuk orang yang ingin memiliki mobil pribadi tapi tidak ingin menyetirnya sendiri, mungkin ini adalah jawabannya. Dengan mobil ini pengendara cukup duduk di kursi dan kendaraan akan berjalan sesuai arah tujuan anda, Dengan ruang untuk 7 penumpang, dan dinding transparan yang bisa melihat pemandangan dengan leluasa. Para designer memperkirakan mobil ini akan keluar pada tahun 2040 gan !!
4. Mobil Mewah Bertenaga Solar
Dengan fisik ramping yang sangat mirip dengan yang lain konsep kendaraan futuristik listrik, Lovos BMW tetap menonjol dalam salah satu cara utama: memiliki sisik. Skala Solar, tepatnya, yang berfungsi sebagai produsen energi dan rem angin-hambatan udara. Dibuat oleh Anne Forschner, lulusan Pforzheim University di Jerman, konsep ini mungkin bukan kendaraan listrik paling praktis atau realistis yang pernah didesain, tapi jelas memiliki tampilan yang unik.
5. Modifikasi Baru Mobil Subaru
Dengan suspensi serius ditingkatkan dan mesin supercharged dapat membuat Subaru ini kemana-mana, tidak ada Subaru lainnya mungkin: off-road, ke salju dan es kecuali subaru terbaru ini yang bernama Subaru Impreza WRX majorly diubah IMS, diciptakan oleh rally mobil sopir Amerika Ken Block, mudah ritsleting melalui pemandangan musim dingin dan menggiring para snowboard untuk lebih ke atas gunung.
6. Emisi Mobil Dari Renault
Sementara mobil Amerika masih memperdebatkan pro dan kontra dari penjualan kendaraan semua-listrik, Renault merek Eropa memulai debutnya dengan empat mobil listrik di 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show. Sebuah mobil keluarga SUV dan lima-penumpang "city car". Semua keempat mobil tersebut akan tersedia untuk dikeluarkan pada tahun 2012.
7. Sepeda Lipat
Apa yang membuat lebih bisa ramah lingkungan, kecuali dengan berjalan sendiri dengan dua kaki dan mengendarai sepeda. Untuk orang-orang yang tinggal dekat dengan tempat kerja, atau tinggal di apartemen kecil, transportasi sepeda akan ideal jika saja sepeda itu cukup kompak praktis. Dan para penemu pun membuat sepeda yang bisa disimpan dilipat dan disimpan di lemari !! Setelah dilipat, sepedapun dengan mudah dapat ditarik di jalan dengan salah satu ujung setang nya.
8. Mobil Robot Elektrik
Sama seperti kereta bayi di mal, kendaraan listrik stackable bisa disewa di kota-kota besar dan kemudian kembali ke kios untuk diisi ulang. CityCars sangatlah kecil, dengan ruang untuk dua penumpang dan jumlah minimal koper, dan dapat lebih kecil lagi dari tempat parkir. Dibuat oleh para peneliti di MIT, konsep CityCar mungkin datang ke kota di AS lebih cepat karena General Motors saat ini sedang bekerja pada prototipe.
9. Sepeda Anti Pencurian
Sepeda ini tidak bisa dicuri, dengan alat "pembaca sidik jari" yang hanya memungkinkan pemilik untuk naik itu. Ban ini tidak akan pernah bengkong. Sepeda yang tampak futuristik ini dirancang oleh pengendara sepeda Olimpiade Chris Boardman menghapus banyak alasan orang untuk tidakmenggunakan untuk memiliki sepeda, tetapi harga sepeda cantik ini sekitar $ 4.000. Saat ini hanya konsep, dan Boardman mengharapkan 2 dekade kedepan sepeda ini akan keluar di pasaran.
10. Kendaraan Segway
Ini adalah kendaraan dengan konsep futuristik.Meskipun masih hanya berjalan sekitar 12mph dan butuh waktu sekitar satu jam untuk diisi ulang.
