Cricket Introduced to SEA Games
In good news for Indonesia’s developing cricketing lovers, cricket will be included in the next South East Asian (SEA) games as an exhibition sport. The SEA games organizing committee, along with representatives of the national Olympic Committees of the SEA countries, met in Jakarta to finalize the categories of sports to be included in the 26th SEA games to be hosted by Indonesia in 2011. With the support from Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, hosts Indonesia were successful in convincing the SEA games committee to include cricket as an exhibition sport in 2011. Cricket was accepted officially by KONI (Indonesian Olympic Committee) two years ago, and now has the full support by the national sporting body to be included in the SEA games. This will be a great promoting medium to further increase the interest in cricket across Indonesia. KONI is scheduled to meet with members of the SEA Games Council in September as a part of Indonesia’s preparations for hosting the 2011 Games, to which the International Cricket Council (ICC) has been invited to join the meeting. KONI and Cricket Indonesia see it as a great opportunity for the ICC to promote the sport as there will be delegations from all 11 Southeast Asian countries attending the meeting. With Balinese players continually performing well in national games, and a number of junior Balinese cricketers making the national under-17 team to play in Vanuatu in September, the introduction of the game into the SEA games will most likely give a number of Balinese players the opportunity to participate in the event. Bali Team Takes Governer’s Cup Title Team Puri Gede I from Karangasem took out the Governer’s Cup Beach Volleyball Championship held at Mertasari beach in Sanur in late July. The four day event saw teams representing 10 provinces of Indonesia brave the heat and strong winds to battle for the title. Puri Gede I defeated Jakarta’s Indonesia Power I two sets to one in a closely contested final, which saw some very long and entertaining rallies. In the female’s, East Java defeated West Nusa Tenggara. During the presentations event organisers explained of their plans to attract a number of international teams as well as national teams in next year’s event. It is hoped that the event will annually develop into a major regional beach volleyball tournament. Also during the presentations there were discussions by the Head of Sanur Kauh Village, I Made Dana, that a public futsal (a form of indoor football) arena would be built at Mertasari beach. The spacious sand areas of

Mertasari were modified and constructed for the Asian beach games where it hosted a number of different events. Hopefully Mr Dana is true to his word as Sanur, and Bali in general, is certainly lacking in public sporting facilities and the addition of a futsal arena would be more than welcome.

Australian Junior Wins in Bali 17 year-old Australian Wade Carmichael made the most of the barreling waves on offer at the famed Keramas river-mouth in East Bali to win the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) Billabong Pro Junior Asia. Held in excellent 4 to 5 foot waves, Carmicheal proved too good for fellow Australian James Woods in the final. For both surfers this was their first ever final and best ever result in ASP Pro Junior surfing, with Carmichael taking $US7000 in prize-money for his victory and Woods, who defeated his younger brother Thomas to make the final, took home $US3000. The best placed Indonesian was Putra Hermawan from Nusa Lembongan who made it through to the fourth round. This was the first-ever duel sanctioned ASP Australasia/ Japan event which attracted the very best 20 year and under surfers from throughout the region which included a strong contingent of Australian, Japanese, Indonesian, New Zealand and Philippine surfers along with a sprinkling of excellent surfers from South Africa, Brazil, Jamaica, Sudan and Hawaii. Such was the success of the event that organizers are looking at ways to utilize Indonesia, possibly surfing’s greatest geographical location boasting the greatest abundance of amazingly perfect reef, point and river-mouth locations, for similar future events. Red Bull Winners Hoisted Away Over 150 competitors participated in the Red Bull Heli Surf challenge on Kuta beach. The unique paddle race attracted a number of local and foreign surfers who paddled through the break to a buoy about 350 meters from the shore. The youngest participant was only 6 years old, with the oldest 53. A helicopter was awaiting the first three place getters, who were then whisked off to the world-famous surf camp G-land for the weekend as their prize. Australian Mitch Kenyon was first to reach the buoy in a time of 10 minutes, followed by Swiss surfer Michael Schmid and the UK’s Matt Rivers in third place. The three lucky winners had the opportunity to spend the weekend in G-Land attending a private coaching clinic with Red Bull Pro Surfer and legendary Australian big wave rider, Ross Clarke-Jones.

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) I first had this dish in Bangkok with only the oyster mushrooms and prawns. I like the addition of shitake mushroom for another flavor layer and the tree fungus for crunch. The whole festive combination is spicy, savory, and completely satisfying.
Three Mushroom and Prawn Salad Serves 4 Ingredients: - 400 gr. fresh oyster mushrooms - 80 gr. fresh shitake mushrooms - 70 gr. fresh tree fungus (curly flat black mushrooms) - 2 small green chilies, seeded - 4 coriander roots and leaves, cleaned - 2 Tbl. canola oil - 400 gr. medium sized prawns, shelled, deveined - 1/4 cup shallots, thinly sliced - 4 tsp. lime juice - 3 tsp. Thai fish sauce - 2 chives, finely chopped - 1/4 cup coriander leaf, finely chopped, reserving a few leaves for garnish - salt and pepper to taste Directions : Clean all the mushrooms and dry them off. If any of the mushrooms are large cut them in half. Then simmer them in water for 10 minutes. Drain. While these are simmering take the green chilies and the

coriander roots and grind them together with a mortar and pestle or in a food processor. Squeeze and drain, keeping the liquid and throwing away the solids. Heat the oil in a frying pan. When hot add the prawns in one layer and sauté’ just until pink on both sides. Don’t cook too long or they will be tough. Put the prawns in a bowl with the mushrooms. Add the chili and coriander root juice, and the shallots. Mix well. Add the lime juice, fish sauce, chives and coriander leaf. Mix well and taste adding salt and pepper to your liking.

Restaurant Review
By Gerry Williams E-mail: gerry@balieats.com
Dining on the Roof! Rooftop Grill & Wine is located on the top floor of The Anantara Seminyak Hotel. On the ground floor is their acclaimed Thai restaurant Wild Orchid. RGW is a grill bar [large variety of meats and seafood] but also has a very special Spanish menu, Catalan style. Thai and Spanish cuisines have one thing in common, neither could be called bland. Both have flavour in abundance though they are vastly different, and both cuisines often use a mortar and pestle to extract the full flavour from the ingredients. At Rooftop Grill & Wine the International menu contains all the grill options. This review is only about the other menu, Spanish mostly from the region of Catalan. Courses can be selected individually choosing either a two or three course option. Included in the standard price is a glass of Chilean red or white wine or that Spanish creation Sangria. Your choice is from 5 entrees, 5 mains and 4 desserts. Oh, so difficult! At least a first visit generates the immediate reason for an immediate return. Or you can do what we do; all order different dishes and share. Then you know what your favourite dishes are for the next visit Gambas al Ajillo [garlic prawns] is one of the first Spanish dishes that newcomers try. Whether it be a tapas version served at the bar or as an entrée in a restaurant. So different from the norm which is usually small shrimps floating in a bowl of sizzling garlic and oil! Not so at RGW. The often over-strong garlic flavour is muted here as the large fleshy king prawns are seated on a seafood bisque, delicate and succulent, garlic shavings added. The Gazpacho, that traditional Andalusian iced vegetable soup is another Spanish special. Here it is chef Mateo’s own Catalan version, red wine vinegar being an unusual component. Again different from any other that I ever had. The soup bowl has a light pastry envelope topped with a fine mix of zucchini, anchovy and paprika. The soup, much thinner than normal, you add yourself. Red Back Tuna is enhanced with cabernet sauvignon and vinegar and is served with a chilled emulsion of black olives and pressed black olive paper. The Catalan style Vegetable Mousse [Escalivada] is grilled vegetables topped with anchovies and red onion vinaigrette. The eggplant, peppers etc., are peeled and sliced after grilling. Fish Soup is labeled ‘Costa Brava’ style. It combines a variety of seafood with seafood ravioli in a very rich broth. I have never tasted squid so tender and soft, with not even the slightest hint if rubber! In a break away from all the Catalan dishes is a pure Andalusian Mussels dish, marinated and steamed in dry sherry.
The mains are highlighted by an incredible Lamb dish, Cordero de Leche Asado en Ascuas. The young lamb is slowly braised on the bone and served pink, with a timbale of rice stuffed with shreds of sautéed spinach, soft raisins and pine-nuts. Chef Mateo considers his chicken dish to be his best. A real traditional village recipe has the chicken first stewed then combined with poached lobster [a baby from Lombok, insert your fork and the flesh almost falls out, soft and tender] spread all over is a very Catalan picada sauce, added on top a paste on crisp bread, almonds and meat juices crushed together in the mortar.

No Spanish restaurant can escape the Paella, that creation of Valencia. At RGW the seafood version is with sofrito [finely chopped garlic, onion and tomato sauteed in oil]. Whilst Paella can be with meat, seafood of a mix of both it is the seafood one which appears to be the most popular.

one glass of wine/sangria each]
Spanish desserts are very sweet which should suit the Bali palate. Their crème Caramel is infused with rum, Torrijas de Castilla is a sponge bruleed with honey, served with light custard. A rich Dark chocolate Fondant is served with a strawberry sauce and ice cream and chef’s masterpiece is an Aged Olive Oil Ice Cream garnished with crisp sugar bread. This is a dish that he says was inspired from a visit to the world famous El Bulli. It is a most difficult dish to describe other than calling it ultra smooth, naturally oily but in a pleasant way. The very crisp biscuit-like bread, not that sweet, you can use as a left hand shovel to assist the spoon as the delicate mixture quickly melts. Unique! An incredible wine list, for this day and age in Bali, offers something for everyone. Add to that pleasant friendly service that is very professional and views across the ocean if you are early enough to catch the magic Bali sunset.
Copyright © 2010 Gerry Williams The Rooftop Grill & Wine restaurant is totally different to all others in Bali. Arrive late afternoon to catch the best sunset show in Bali, background music by the DJ of the day as you sprawl on the lounges sipping your cocktails, then as darkness descends move to the open main restaurant end of the roof, from where the DJ music becomes soft background, and gaze down at the floodlit white sands and blue waters of Seminyak beach. A classy way to live!

Update Damai
is a majestic restaurant, nestling as it does on the side of a mountain behind Lovina, with views across the straits to Java. The menu caters for the elite on Bali’s northern coast with a menu that reads like one of the better ones from Seminyak. Pan-Fried Foie Gras in a cinnamon glaze accompanied by a salad of spicy sour apple, cranberries, beetroot, daikon and pine nuts in an orange vinaigrette. A Ravioli of chilli crab drizzled with a pumpkin bisque, wakame seaweed in chive oil. Sashimi of Lobster [with sesame ponzu, foie gras tataki, tobiko roe and a crisp sesame tuille] or Wagyu [with ponzu, sesame seeds and lime chutney]. Damai’s famous Bouillabaisse is unique. All the seafood and vegetable ingredients arrive separately, you add them and the seafood broth to your soup bowl at the table. The Red Snapper is a skin-fried fillet with sautéed chives, local herbs and flowers, malt and pangi earth [pictured]. Lobsters at Damai are fresh water ones, direct from their own ponds. As a main you get 3 baby ones, served three different ways! Duck Breast is with duck sausage and leek, in a teriyaki sauce. Baby Pork Ribs and Loin are slow roasted and served with balsamic-marinated red cabbage, daikon fondant and orange salad. For dessert a Chocolate & Grand Marnier Crème Brulee with mangosteen sorbet. They also have a 6 course Tasting Menu.
C/R/I-19 May 10
Art Café has survived its first year! Always important in Bali particular when you begin at
a site that has failed for many years such as the SunSet Café site that Art Café inherited. Mind you they totally rebuilt it and improved it markedly. Street-side is a large white rotunda in a garden setting, a semi-circular covered terrace faces the artist area, under a large white umbrella [they have live music in the garden every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, with owner Zio and friends]. Many snacks for the anytime visitor, including that worldly Croque Monsieur [Toasted Ham and Cheese Sandwich in English], simple but always welcome in any language. Salads [Potato in dill, Watermelon feta and olive and Tofu lemongrass and lime Thai style], Indonesian [Red Bean Soup with pork], or International [German Frikadelen, beef and pork meatballs with herbed potatoes, Pork Schnitzels] or that very International Cheeseburger! They must have many visiting musicians as their very complete Breakfasts are served all day, so after a long night you can have a full breakfast; normal, healthy or a ‘hungover’ special!
Sari Organic is situated in the middle of the rice paddies to the north-east of Ubud.
C/R/I-7 April 10
Access is either by the main walkway from behind the Abangan Guest House via the Abangan Waterway or from a rougher track from Jln. Kajeng. Either way it is a 20 minute walk although sometimes there is motor bike transport available. Organic food normally means pure vegetarian but as they also raise chickens on the farm, grilled chicken salads and kebabs are also on the menu. One of the main attractions are the many and varied fuit juice and mocktail combinations, particularly after such a long walk.Their Mint-Lemonade is very popular. Pasta and Pizzas are on the menu but all combined with organically grown vegetables. General opinion is that it is the atmosphere and location are the main reasons as to why people go there. Worth a look, at least!
Sitara
is an example of the new Denpasar. As the old warungs that used to line Jln. Teuku Umar are slowly disappearing they are being replaced with modern new air-conditioned restaurants. Sitara serves Indian cuisine and the management hails from Surabaya. As usual with many Asian cuisines the menu is enormous, half of which is devoted to Vegetarian, this one with all the flavours of India. Included are Lolypops, deep-fried balls of paneer [cottage cheese] and potato, and Tandoori Aloo, potatoes also stuffed with cottage cheese combined with cashew nuts. Non-vegetarian dishes include a tasty Mutton Samosa, minced meat and peas wrapped in a flaky pastry. Mutton Tawa is boned meat from the leg slowly braised with onions and paprika. Sami Kebabs are deep-fried balls of minced lamb combined with dahl [lentils]. Chicken Achari Tikka has first been marinated in Indian pickled mango before finishing off in the Tandoor. From Madras are Chicken Kathi Kebabs, minced chicken sautéed with tomato, onions and paprika, then wrapped in Roomali Roti & served with a chilli sauce.
Mix Espresso Bar
is one of a host of small specialty places that have opened on the lower reaches of Jln. Dhyana Pura during the past 6 months. There are now quite a variety of options for good value dining along this stretch, with many different cuisines on offer. Mix is proud of their coffees [serving both the Sumatran Mandaling coffee as well as Italy’s finest, Illy, processed via a real espresso machine] and teas, served every which way. Interesting snacks include Singaporean Vegetarian Spring Rolls, Dadar Jagung [healthy corn cakes] and a variety of salads, straight or with BBQ chicken. They have a normal International menu of Sandwiches [Club, etc.], Pastas and Pizzas [a monster Meat Lovers Pizza is topped with ham, sausage, beef, bacon and chicken]. Other Mains are from all over the archipelago; Chicken Rica-Rica from Manado, a Beef Rendang from Sumatra and a Yellow Beef Soup from Madura.
Press Ban Café is the latest addition to Eat Street, squeezed into a narrow space
just after Mykonos, masquerading as a clothing store [pre-loved and vintage, new words for 2nd hand] with coffee and things. A big range of cakes [carrot, tiramisu, etc] different quiches each day [such as a spinach & ricotta], many different teas, natural and herbal, and coffee any way you want it. Healthy combinations include eggplant with hummus, tomato and feta sprinkled with parsley. A miniature café so check the daily board for the specials.
Cafe Lemongrass
is an obvious off-shoot from the Lemongrass Thai restaurant in Seminyak [located at the site of Bali’s 1st Thai, Kin Khao]. A most impressive building with ample car parking, large open dining area facing a covered terrace with gardens beyond and a welcome air-conditioned area for those hot days, weather and chillies combined! It is conveniently placed on Jln. Raya Canggu in Anyar Kerobokan on the main link road to Tanah Lot. Many Thai snacks including Yum Nuea [grilled beef tossed with toasted ground rice, coriander, lemon juice and a spice or two], Som Tam Malakor [traditional green papaya salad]. Mains include red and green curries that can be with chicken, beef, pork, lamb or prawns or that mild aromatic Gaeng Massaman, beef with potatoes, pineapple, onion and peanuts in a rich coconut milk curry. Chicken with Cashews Thai style is an all-time favourite. There are also a few Indonesian dishes and some International snacks but who can go past those wonderful Thai options.

Marie Munkara’s “Every Secret Thing” By Sally Lattin In spite of dire warnings from her adopted Mother, Marie Munkara left Melbourne at the age of 28 to head back to the Tiwi Islands to find her real Mother.
Contact person: Apti +6285 710 183700 C/U/G-16 June 10
with her long lost family. She said that she wanted to write the stories down so that her daughters would know how things had been for her and their grandmother and others of that time.
Marie was born on the banks of the Mainoru River in central Arnhem Land and went to Nguiu on the Tiwi Islands when she was about 18 months old. At the age of three, she, like many other Aboriginal children, was removed from her family and sent to live in Melbourne.
This extraordinary book focuses not only the terrible things that happened in the missions and white institutions, but on the feelings that we all share as human beings and the good that can sometimes come from even the most dreadful situations. Her “nothing is sacred” and deliberately sarcastic rendition of the stories she tells crackle with humour and a kind of forgiveness that contributes to the humanity of her work. She reveals many of the truths of Australia’s black history in a quirky, no holds barred approach that has allowed her to be both political and scathing without alienating her audience.
My family were quite strict and very Catholic, they were almost like 18th century Victorians in their outlook and the way we were brought up. There was no talking unless you were spoken to by an adult first and definitely no talking at the dinner table, no running or giggling in the house, stuff like that. As a teenager I rebelled against the rigorous Catholicism that I had forced on me so I think a bit of that comes out in my book when I take the piss out of the mission mob.
Marie has written ever since she was a child, and the book, which started as a short story entry for the NT Literary Awards, apparently just wrote itself. Whatever it was that felt like it was just “writing through her” has captured the horror and the humanity, the bigotry and the sodomy, the chicanery and the resilience which has been the experience of many who have become known as Australia’s “Stolen Generation”.
The rebellion that propelled Marie back to her roots 20 years ago provided the stories that birthed her first novel, even though her trip back to meet her real Mother was not exactly as she had expected.
The book took just 12 months to write and she says that she enjoyed every moment of it. The type of experience most writers would kill for! Not only that, she says that there are plenty more stories just waiting to be told and is currently working on her second novel.
“They’ll take all your money”, she says, “Aborigines are shifty and can’t be trusted I’ve always told you that. They’ll teach you bad habits”. “Why do you say things like that, I’m Aboriginal too” I say, not out of solidarity for those of my genetic disposition mind you, but with the knowledge that this particular topic will get right up her arse.
A r t w o r k
I’ve worn the same clothes for four days and even though I bathe in the sea like everyone else, I know I stink. My hair is encrusted with salt and I look like a dreadlocked Rastafarian who missed the boat to the West Indies and got off at this shit hole by mistake. I am sunburned and I feel awful.
Every Secret Thing was the winner of the 2008 David Unaipon Award for best unpublished manuscript by an Aboriginal writer, and this year also won ‘Territory Read’ the Northern Territory Book of the Year Award.
My brother has killed a wallaby and is gutting it just above the tree line. The stench wafts over to me so I move further down the beach to another tree to escape the putrid smell. I sit there for hours sulking and everyone leaves me to myself.
Marie Munkara will be a guest of the 2010 Ubud Writers & Readers Festival, October 6 - 10, sponsored by Arts NT and the NT Writers Centre
Marie’s award-winning first novel Every Secret Thing came about as a result of listening to the yarns as she sat around

Ubud YAK AWARDS! Congratulations to three Ubud winners and a horde of local nominations, heralded at the recent Annual Ya k A w a r d s night. SMILE’s (Yayasan Senyum Bali) Mary Northmore-Aziz won the Best Community Services Award, with past winner Robin Lim (Yayasan Bumi Sehat) and Koman from Komaneka Gallery (the Society of XXV) among the nominees. Four Seasons Ubud won Best Resort, with Komaneka Bisma also nominated. The Yak’s sister magazine, The Bud, won the New Media Award – they have a head start with a perfect topic. Other nominees: Laughing Buddha, Bar of the Year; Karen Waddell (Bali Good Food, Siam Sally, Cinta, Kafe Batan Waru and Terrazzo), Meghan Pappenheim (balispirit. com, KAFE, Tegun Gallerie, The Yoga Shop, The Yoga Barn, Little K and BaliSpirit Festival) and Janice Lee Ripley (Blooms), Woman of the Year; and Ben Ripple of Big Tree Farms for Green Yak Award. STAYING SAFE This is, generally speaking, a gentle, safe place to live. But be sensible. Lock your house or homestay and keep your valuables out of sight. Also, if you are robbed – and it doesn’t happen often – do us all a favour and report the robbery to the police straight away. An efficient national finger-print record system will help nab the culprit before he tries the next house. REALIGNING THE WORLD It is inspiring to live in a place where the people take their spiritual responsibilities so seriously. The community of Desa Pakraman Padangtegal, which cares for and worships at the Pura Dalem Agung Padangtegal, is holding a series of ceremonies finishing August 20, to revitalize the temple, its precincts, the village, as well as, they believe, the universe.

who is prepared to follow the rules of dress and behavior set down by tradition (adat). MAMA’S RESTAURANT A new restaurant and bar opens in Ubud this month, its name – Mémé’s – honouring the mother of the owner, who brought the family through difficult times after their Nusa Dua land was compulsorily acquired by the government. Dad caught the fish, Mémé (Mama in Balinese) sold it at the market, bought vegetables and – long before resorts were built - began one of Nusa Dua’s first tourist warungs. Next door to Pizza Bagus, Mémé’s will also serve fresh seafood - and some of Mum’s home recipes. TAKSU GOING GREEN And then there’s a delicious organic, vegetarian buffet at Taksu Spa and Restaurant every Tuesday evening in August and September, only 60,000rp nett. Phone 0361 971490 for dinner booking and to ask about the massages and spa treatments on offer – many at great reduced prices to support staff training programs. THE GROTTO Plus I strongly recommend that you “watch this space”…. There are all sorts of plans being hatched for The Grotto (formerly Exiles) in Jl Pengosekan. Your Friday and Saturday nights, and Sunday lunches, may never be the same again. My lips are, for the moment, sealed. THE MIGHTY MOUSSE I’m not a “sweets” fan usually, but they had to tear the sampling pot away from me, to give someone else a taste of the latest Ubud indulgence – a “home-delivered” chocolate mousse! Described with absolutely no exaggeration as the richest, stickiest, velvetysmooth chocolate mousse ever, it is available in two chocolate flavours, Decadent Indulgence, infused with brandy for adults only, or Mighty Mousse for kids. Kept and served frozen (contains milk, organic eggs) allegedly this product can last a month. Unless you leave on a visa run, I doubt it. Mighty Mousse is delivered either in an “8 pigs-16 portions” glass bowl, or in 16 readyto-go shot glasses. Also available at KAFE on Jalan Hanoman for a naughty-nice treat on the run! To order, call or sms 081 805 429 519, one day before you need it. 160,000225,000rp plus delivery surcharge. LOST AND NOT YET FOUND Lost something? I suggest you ask at your favourite cafes and other holiday spots. In KAFE on Jl Hanoman yesterday I saw their ‘lost and found’ stash – including 3 mobile phones, several bunches of keys and several pairs of cool sunglasses - waiting patiently for their owners. Other places have similar collections. OK – I’M BUYING NEW GUTTERS
Our world is currently out of balance; its axis is tilting, causing earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, wars and chaos. The Padang Tegal community – whose main temples are in Jl Hanoman, Jl Raya Ubud and Monkey Forest – perform this work once every generation, to strengthen the spiritual energy emanating from the temple and help the world realign. For the past year the temple has undergone major renovation in preparation for the Grand Ceremony, which will harmonize the three worlds of Balinese Hindu belief; Bhur, level of the lower beings; Bwah, level of the humans and Swah, the level of the Gods. The way to achieve this was recorded on an ancient, lontar palm text and will be carried out faithfully on behalf of the whole world, in the hope that humans will become more caring about each other and their environment. Many of the ceremonies are open to anyone

There’s a theory that the rainy season is going to end, but as the months go on, people seem to be losing their conviction about this, so I’m going to help. I thought I could wait until next year to put gutters on my still incomplete house. After all, walls and a floor, in the scheme of things, have a higher priority and cashflow is tight. However, I figure if it makes the rain stop, it’s worth the sacrifice. In Australia, the opposite activity is usually required – you know, wash the car or put out the washing, and you can be sure it will rain.

the art of body The Beginner’s Guide to Running (the most common questions answered) How do I get started? Firstly, don’t be scared or think that running is not your forte. If you don’t have any major injuries and healthy knees, you can definitely consider running. Start walking for a length of time that feels comfortable - anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes. Once you can walk for 30 minutes easily, sprinkle 1- to 2-minute running sessions into your walking. As time goes on, make the running sessions longer, until you’re running for 30 minutes straight. Make sure your running spurts are not too fast in the beginning. If you are gasping for air by the 2nd minute you are going too fast. Slow progression is the key for keeping your goal alive and your motivation high.

Is it normal if running hurts? Some discomfort is normal as you add distance and intensity to your training. But real pain isn’t normal. If some part of your body feels so bad that you have to run with a limp or otherwise alter your stride, you have a problem. Stop running immediately, and take a few days off. If you’re not sure about the pain, try walking for a minute or two to see if the discomfort disappears. If a problem persists see a physiotherapist to understand how you can solve the issue.
Personalized Hospitality Amenities a convenient solution for products & packaging
How is running on a treadmill different from outdoor runs? A treadmill “pulls” the ground underneath your feet, and you don’t face any wind resistance, both of which make running somewhat easier. Many treadmills are padded, making them a good option if you’re carrying a few extra pounds or are injury-prone and want to decrease impact. To better simulate the effort of outdoor running, you can always set your treadmill at a 1- 2 percent incline. This way you can somewhat train for beginner outdoor running
I always feel out of breath when I run - is something wrong? Yes, you’re probably trying to run too fast. Relax. Slow down. One of the biggest mistakes beginners make is to run too fast. Concentrate on breathing from deep down in your belly, and if you have to, take walking breaks. If the 1 minute spurts feel too heavy for you, switch to slow walk to fast walk.
How do I prevent getting a side stitch when I run? Side stitches are common among beginners because your abdomen is not used to the jostling that running causes. Most runners find that stitches go away as fitness increases. Also, don’t eat any solid foods during the hour before you run. When you get a stitch, breathe deeply, concentrating on pushing all of the air out of your abdomen. This will stretch out your diaphragm muscle (just below your lungs), which is usually where a cramp occurs.
Do I need running shoes? Running doesn’t require much investment in gear and accessories, but you have to have a good pair of running shoes. Unlike sneakers, running shoes are designed to help your foot strike the ground properly, reducing the amount of shock that travels up your leg. They’re also made to fit your foot snugly, which reduces the slipping and sliding that can lead to blisters. If you want the most comfort you can get out of your run, I suggest you get some running shoes. Enjoy it!

Anti Aging & Natural Health
Advertorial
Stay Young and Healthy with The Latest Advances in Anti Aging Medicine
Can You Really Stop The Aging Process? Live Stem Cell Therapy This Could Be The Ultimate Anti Aging Therapy There are many anti aging therapies and treatments that I have been writing about in my articles including whole body detoxification, hormonal balancing and natural hormone replacement, human growth hormone replacement therapy, exercise with oxygen and more. However, whilst all of the above are critical for a healthy and fit body, they can only do so much to reverse more serious cellular and organ damage that has already been inflicted. If your cellular DNA has been damaged leading to genetic mistakes and poorly functioning cells, even if the disease process is arrested, residual tissue damage from previous drug or chemical therapy, inflammation, toxicity, anoxia, and focal circulatory failure could leave your tissues unable to recover to full function. Of course whole body detoxification and whole body oxygenation/ozonation are the important first steps in regaining your health. Then hormone balancing will also greatly help your cells to regenerate as much as possible. But in many instances, that will not be enough. Enter stem cell therapy. What is a Stem Cell? A stem cell is a cell that has the ability to divide (self replicate) for indefinite periods—often throughout the life of the organism. Under the right conditions, or given the right signals, stem cells can give rise (differentiate) to the many different cell types that make up the organism. That is, stem cells have the potential to develop into mature cells that have characteristic shapes and specialized functions, such as heart cells, skin cells, or nerve cells. Stem cells have the have the unique ability to regenerate and repair your organs and tissues. When your body is stressed for any reason, you release stem cells in order to help your organs cope with that stress or illness. However, as we age, we just don’t produce enough stem cells to adequately repair and regenerate our organs and body, hence we age and we get sick and degenerative disease take a firm hold of our bodies. But, it doesn’t have to be that way: now methods are available that use precursor stem cells taken from the organs of fetal animals which have an amazing ability to regenerate the organs of humans. Stem Cell Therapy – How it Works The future of medicine lies in regenerating your worn out or exhausted organs and tissues. Think of heart transplants as an example. A whole organ is replaced by a newer, healthy and stronger one leading to a prevention of an early death, a much improved lifespan and a better quality of life. However, the problem with organ transplants taken from other humans is the problem of rejection, which necessitates the recipient to take strong immunosuppressant drugs for life. These can predispose the person to severe and life threatening infections and even cancers. Think of stem cell therapy as a mini-organ transplant, without the need for major surgery or without the need for strong immune suppressant drugs. Using the fresh baby stem cells from the organs of fetal animals, (which are easily and safely injected into your muscle), removes any risk of immune rejection, and all provides the necessary stimulation and regeneration of your own tired and worn out cells and organs. But I hear you saying: how can you use animal stem cells in humans? You see in nature the cells of organs of various species are practically identical, and it is this fact that has enabled stem cell or live cell therapy using stem cells taken from the organs of fetal animals to be used safely and very effectively in humans for over 80 years. Also, the immunological markers are not developed until the fetus is almost ready for birth, hence when the stem cells are taken from a fetus at an early enough age, there is no immune reaction. This has been proven without a doubt in millions of live stem cell therapies that have been performed since the early 1900’s. Live Stem Cells – History In 1927 professor Paul Niehans, a medical doctor from Switzerland, first used implantation of fresh calf pituitary tissue fragments for treatment of pituitary dwarfs. In 1929 he treated patients with chronic arthritis using a similar method with good results. In 1931 he was asked to try to save the life of a woman who was dying of tetany due to the accidental removal of her parathyroid glands during a thyroidectomy. As there was no time to adequately prepare for his normal implantation surgery, Dr Niehans immediately dissected the parathyroid glands from a baby calf, chopped them up finely and then injected them into the patient. The patient survived and lived for another 21 years in good health! This was the beginning of live stem cell therapy.
Professor Niehans went on to use his method of live stem cell therapy to treat many people without any need for immunosuppression. So as you can see, this is not a new phenomenon. It has been going on since the 1920s. Winston Churchill attributed his physical endurance to live cell therapy. French Prime Minister Adenauer, although in his 90s, was the backbone of the rebuilding of Germany after World War II. He made annual trips to Switzerland to visit Dr Niehans for live stem cell therapy.

Who Else Wants Increased Sexual Potency at 75? Charlie Chaplin fathered a child in his 70s. He told the press that live stem cell therapy made it possible because the therapy had increased his potency and virility. It is rumored that Cary Grant, George Burns, Bob Hope, Gloria Swanson and a host of other famous stars were regular visitors to Switzerland for live cell therapy. Pope Pius XII underwent live cell therapy and found the results so remarkable that he inducted the discoverer, Dr. Paul Niehans, into the Papal Academy of Science. Dr. Niehans became the successor to the late Sir Alexander Fleming, the discoverer of penicillin. Stem Cell Therapy – What Can It Be Used For?

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.
THE END OF THE ROAD……Death in Bali Just a few months ago my dear Mother passed away in Australia. While it was no surprise, naturally we were all deeply saddened that she had finally left us. Luckily my parents had planned ahead, and there were few decisions left to be made as to how her last rites would be conducted. After only one brief meeting with the funeral home to discuss music and the photos that would be displayed at her gathering, and only 5 days after her passing a relatively simple and yet beautiful service was conducted to celebrate her life and to say our farewells. The cost of the in its entirety was about AUD $6,000.00. Each year hundreds of expatriates and tourists die in Bali, usually through illness or accident. These figures will likely increase drastically with the introduction of the pensioner visas and the overall steep increase in the expatriate population in general. The death of a loved one is always distressing for family and friends. When the death occurs overseas, isolating and confusing circumstances can make it even more difficult. Death outside of your own country can involve complications in organizing the funeral, repatriation and other administrative arrangements and formalities. These processes can seem unfamiliar and unnecessarily demanding for the family or friends, whose priority it is to bring their loved one home, or to organize late rites to be performed here in Bali. Firstly a decision needs to be made whether the burial or cremation will take place here on the Island or will the body be repatriated to the home country so as the deceased may be laid to rest there? Sending a body overseas is a very expensive ordeal. Prices range from USD $3,000.00 to $5,000.00 depending on the destination. Sending ashes overseas is quite a bit cheaper at about USD $200.00 to $500.00. There are 2 funeral grounds in South Bali that are generally available for expatriates. Both are on the Nusa Dua peninsula, and happen to be right next door to each other. If you were expecting a quaint Chapel of Rest with peaceful music, pleasant gardens and staff dressed in white suites waiting to be of service, forget it. The grounds are situated on a dusty hill, and the crematorium is a large outdoor oven and two tin tables and a large levered door (which tends to stick at the most inconvenient times). But if you’re not into trimmings it is serviceable. There are two funeral homes that will assist expatriates. The Antar Bangsa in Pemogan, Denpasar (Ph 0361- 725553) and the RSAD Hospital also in Denpasar (Ph 0361-7431626). The cost of having burial or cremation in Bali is about USD $ 2,000.00 to $3,000.00. If you choose to have burial or cremation here in Bali, basically the nature of the service is determined by the deceased religion (given that every citizen in this country is supposed to be associated with one religion or another) Most choose either a Christian or Buddhist service as they are a little easier to work with than say the Hindu or Islamic powers. If you were thinking that a Balinese Hindu service might be nice with a full procession, funeral tower, music, and a cremation on the beach, think again. Unless you have fully converted to Hindu, and you have been associated with a Banjar (village community), and have had all previous rites of passage performed (birth rites, puberty rites, tooth filing, marriage rites), then a Balinese ceremony just will not be possible. You will also need the support of the entire local community, as the Balinese funeral takes dozens of people and days to prepare as well as costing a small fortune. Another consideration for a Hindu service is the timing. A good day must be chosen for a cremation. For example if one passes at the beginning of the Galungan period you might have to wait on ice or formalin for up to 2 weeks. I remember a few years ago when the Besakih 100 year ceremony was taking place, deceased were kept waiting at home for up to 3 months, often in secret so as the village was not “sebel” (tainted) and therefore not able to partake in the festivities.
If you choose to have an Islamic ceremony, your friends and relatives may actually blink and miss it. While the funeral (always a burial rather than a cremation) is a much simpler affair it does take place very very quickly. The deceased must be taken to the burial site as quickly as possible to avoid any chance that the deceased spirit may become cozy at home and decide to stay. Hence most ambulances that go screaming through the streets in Java are not on a medical mission, but trying the get to the funeral grounds ASAP! I am certain that more people get killed or injured by ambulances racing for the cemetery than are actually saved by them! C/He/G-16 June 10
Considerations for Planning Death Rites Notification A medical officer will need to certify the death, relatives and close family friends will need to be informed, and then the authorities such as the appropriate consulate, and immigration officials. You will need the following details about the deceased if you report the death: • Full name • Date of birth • Passport number, place and date of issue • Next-of-kin • Whether they were suffering from any communicable illness • Whether they had travel insurance and if so, the name and contact details of the company. Your consulate can usually help with the following: • assist family and friends to understand the legal and administrative processes that apply in that country • if required, liaise with representatives from the travel insurance company. • provide a list of local funeral directors and lawyers • liaise with the local funeral director so they are aware of quarantine regulations • provide guidance on obtaining translations of language. • advise on the estimated cost of local burial, local cremation and transport of the remains. • advise on the estimated cost of transporting any personal property. • advise on how to transfer funds to meet any costs • assist, if necessary, to identify the body • assist with obtaining quarantine clearance for the return of the remains • provide advice on managing media enquiries.

Your consulate cannot: • recommend a funeral director or lawyer • investigate the death of an overseas citizen • pay burial or cremation expenses • pay for or organize the return of the remains to the home country • take responsibility for freighting personal effects • make legal representations or become involved in legal issues surrounding the circumstances of the death or matters relating to a deceased estate • pay any outstanding debts the deceased may have.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE AUGUST 11 - AUGUST 25, 2010
This fortnight continues to propel change at a momentous pace. Uranus on the 14th, drops back into Pisces until March next year. Jupiter opposes Saturn on the 17th and Saturn squares Pluto on the 21st, the same day Mercury goes retrograde for three weeks in the sign of Virgo. Our Sun makes her debut in Virgo on the 23rd with the Full Moon at 2 degrees Pisces on the 25th. New Moon was at 18 degrees Leo on the 10th, so this Full Moon culminates a cycle of personal agendas. Venus joined both Saturn and Mars on the New Moon at the beginning of this fortnight, which brought it into play with the T-square. Relationships are now a prominent theme with Venus the ruler of Libra joining the pair and opposing Uranus and Jupiter, while simultaneously squaring Pluto. Phew! Neptune is once more traveling very close to Chiron at 280 of Aquarius, aligning spirituality with healing in that quantum sign of Aquarius. For those who are interested, Black Moon Lillith is also close to this degree. As Saturn squares Pluto on the 21st the Sun at 28 Leo sits in opposition to this trio in Aquarius. It could well be a time of “what about me?” With so much focus out there on the global crisis, and the plight of the underdog, we often neglect the most important person in our lives, ourselves. As Mercury turns retrograde we will get the opportunity to review our personal protocol for healing, and as the Full Moon heads into Pisces and the Sun into Virgo, we will get the opportunity to express deep compassion, understanding and love for ourselves and then direct our healed thinking out into the unified field, creating profound changes. FULL MOON 1 Pisces 26 August 25, 2010 1:06 a.m.
ARIES: Mars continues in Libra this fortnight, and starts to move away from the T-square before the end of the fortnight. Although you may well be still feeling the pinch with regard to your relationships the pressure has eased somewhat. There has no doubt, been some deep and lasting changes to them, however there is a sense of justice and fairness prevailing, if you have played your cards right. It is a little difficult to see the results of these changes immediately. It is more a sense of trusting that all the upheaval and pressure has done its’ job and you will see and feel the benefits, once things have settled some more over the coming months.
LIBRA: All the action is happening in your corner this fortnight. With the trio of Venus, Mars and Saturn pulled into alignment with Uranus, Jupiter and Pluto you will no doubt, be feeling some repercussions in your life. It is a little difficult to see the wood for the trees however, and you may have to wait the transit out, before you can make any sense of what has just transpired in your life. Things are going on, on so many levels right now, that true integration will not occur for some time to come. Relationships however, are the main arena for all of this disruption, chaos and change. Boldly release all of the attitudes and behaviors which are no longer in accordance with who you aspire to be.
TAURUS: As mentioned in the introduction, Venus your ruler, has joined Saturn and Mars and you will be feeling some pressure as the fortnight begins. As both Mars and Venus move away from the T-square and solidly join forces towards the end of the fortnight you will experience some integration and probably some depth to your relationships. The sexual aspect is brought strongly into play and you will be feeling a tad amorous around this Full Moon. In that romantic water sign of Pisces, you will be able to woo your partner and merge and melt deeply into their embrace. Mind it doesn’t all just stay in the mental realms however.
SCORPIO: While Pluto continues to be on center stage and hammered by Saturn, Uranus and Jupiter, transiting Mars and Venus are also giving you a good going over within your primary relationships. Probably the most sensible thing to do, is to just keep rolling with the punches, so to speak. We all know that you can give as much as you can take, and with that in mind, be very careful where you place your allegiance now. If you place yourself in the wrong camp, you could well suffer over the decision in the months to come. Let no old grievances or resentments hold you back from expressing your true feelings.
GEMINI: As Mercury turns into another retrograde phase in the sign of Virgo, remember to use this energy wisely for deep discernment, rather than self-criticism and self-doubt. Feeling guilty is a waste of time. It is better to take an honest look at your mistakes and to make the necessary adjustments with a strong intention to act differently next time and then follow through with your intentions. It is all too easy to get waylaid and to pay the price for your flippancy. So again, use these next few weeks to detoxify your mental processes and find a way to stay on top of your impulsive and erratic thinking addictions. CANCER: This could be a challenging moon cycle for you. Starting out in that gregarious sign of Leo, and culmination in the super sensitive sign of Pisces, sees you oscillating from one extreme to the other. If you have a tendency to take things too personally, you could be in for a round of deep emotional purification. On the other hand, if you are in alignment with your higher-self you can use this fortnight to your benefit and propel yourself forward on your spiritual evolutionary journey. Many are being strongly triggered by the T-square, with the release or the missing leg being in the sign of Cancer. You are all in for a period of deep transformation.
SAGITTARIUS: Jupiter has you posed still, for some dramatic life experiences. These are important junctures in your life, where new pathways can be paved into your future. Allow the erratic nature of Uranus do its’ work on you now, while Pluto continues to purge that which no longer serves in your life. Saturn, Venus and Mars in opposition to Jupiter are asking you to evolve and take responsibility as far as relationships, love and sexuality are concerned. What old ideas, morals and judgments need to leave your life now. Many are in for a profound and permanent healing this fortnight. Surrender into receptivity and follow your heart this Full Moon.

CAPRICORN: Relationship responsibility, transformation, change and disruption are high on the agenda this fortnight. The pressure could be on for many of you and this need not be viewed as negative or destructive. Change is a healthy thing, when it allows old wounds to heal and old grievances to be let go of. Take this opportunity to release the past with grace and begin to see your life in a new way. Allow the light and grace to shine and illuminate all the bounty you have created around you. This is the moment for gratitude, even in the midst of apparent chaos. In fact, it is often your way out of that same chaos.
LEO: What could promote you to make the necessary adjustments to your life, at this time? It could be that your very soul is demanding change and growth. With a strong moon cycle in your sign and the Sun opposing Chiron and Neptune, you are in for a time of reckoning and deep and lasting healing. All of this individualized within your personal chart and you would well benefit a reading from an astrologer at this time. This is profound year of deep and lasting change, growth and transformation for all of you and a little direction could go a long way. If you choose to undertake this journey alone, go very gently with yourself, keeping the above in mind.
AQUARIUS: Uranus slides effortlessly back into Pisces this fortnight. Enjoy this respite for the next few months and spend the time imagining and envisioning your ideas. Relax back into your spiritual nature and develop your inner strength for the coming years. These past two months have given you a taste for what is to come starting March next year and for the next few years. Get your house in order and be about getting your life also in order. There will be little time for indulgences in the coming years, as your services will be in high demand. Perhaps a good time to take a vacation. Allow the healing balm of Neptune and Chiron in Aquarius to heal old wounds.
VIRGO: The Sun enters your sign at the end of the fortnight and Mercury will spend a period of retrograde in it as well, and remaining there until early October. This is a great time for you to prioritize your life and to get yourself into a new regime of health and wholeness, with the emphasis being placed on diet and exercise, as well as relaxation techniques. These are very important to you, as you have a fragile nervous system which needs support and some time spent without stress. It is also the opportunity to eliminate any bad habits you may have developed over recent months, with a short period of cleansing or fasting a great way to do it.
PISCES: Neptune and Chiron, the healing waters of the Divine cleansing and purifying your mental attributes. New ideas permeate your reality now, as you dive deeply into new information. This is the time for experimentation and acceleration in your understanding of new concepts, as well as remembering forgotten information. As your brain cells are stimulated like never before, allow this growth to settle into being as Uranus re-enters you sign for the next seven months. A graceful integration can occur, and often while you sleep. Your dreams are extremely profound at this time. Perhaps a good time to journal them for future reference. Many are prophetic.

Snorkeling the East Coast by Susan Spilman Indonesia has some of the best snorkeling and diving in the world. We are part of what is known as the “Coral Triangle”, an area encompassing the Philippines, much of Indonesia, and East Malaysia. As many have said, coral is the oceans answer to the Amazon rain forest, providing an abundance of yet to be explored benefits for the environment and as a barometer for the earth’s health.
is only decent in Singakirta, just south of Candi Dasa where Amarta (Rp 150,000 per night and up), a local favorite, is located. (The food at Amarta is not to be missed!) Here the coral has regenerated well and there are several coral garden areas in front of Amarta with hard and soft corals and small fishes. Locals spear fish here however and thus there are few larger fish. Also, the current can be treacherous. Even strong swimmers need to be cautious around high tide.
Hard and soft corals belong to a classification called stinging-celled animals, a group that includes jellyfish and anemones. The hard corals are what we think of when seeing coral on the shore or for sale. The animals live in this hard limestone structure, usually in small colonies. Soft corals are what you see wafting in the current, sometimes with a feathery appearance, other times fleshy and rubbery. The hard coral animal even more than the soft coral is extremely sensitive to environmental disturbances and thus is a good indicator of the health of our seas. Corals are easily killed by sewage seeping from land, other kinds of pollution of the seas such as toxic chemicals, dynamite and cyanide bombs used for fishing and any significant rise in ocean temperature. Until ten years ago, East Bali was known for excellent snorkeling. Now there are only a few places with healthy coral. Off the beach snorkeling is the easiest form of snorkeling, requiring only a mask and snorkel, and preferably fins.
For years I had heard of Tulamben, well-known for the USAT Liberty, a ship sunk by a Japanese submarine in 1942. We rented motorbikes in Jemaluk and drove up to Tulamben, about 15 km. Locals will point you to the parking area which is large enough to hold many busses. These arrive around 11am with many first-time divers. Best to get there early. The rocky shore is cluttered with people putting on their diving gear or sorting out where to snorkel. A couple of guys are selling souvenir t-shirts of the dive site.
Pasir Putih
Past Candi Dasa and before Amlapura is Perasi, where you will find the turn-off to Pasir Putih or White Sand Beach, known for its undeveloped and beautiful beach. Snorkeling off midbeach shows many varieties of soft and hard corals and anemones spread over a 10x30 meter area. There are several dinner-platter sized anemones with many relatives of Nemo. The undertow is always strong and the current can be fierce as well. There are several local warungs offering lounge chairs, grilled fish, and drinks. This is the one area on the East Coast that offers everything for a perfect beach day!
Calm day at Blue Lagoon
Starting closest to Ubud and Denpasar is Padang Bai, long known for low-cost accommodation and snorkeling at Blue Lagoon. After a hike or drive to the north side of Padang Bai, Blue Lagoon offers fish and coral right off the beach. The formerly rickety warungs at Blue Lagoon have been transformed into large buildings that include snorkel gear rentals and sand for lounging at the warung (since there isn’t any beach at high tide) plus lounge beds and a restaurant that allows you to sit above Blue Lagoon and sip your drink in the shade. The undertow and cross currents make it often difficult to get in and out of the water. The coral is not as vibrant as in previous years and is looking depleted.
Farther up the East coast, Amed refers to several villages situated right along the coast. Driving along the small village road, there is Amed village proper with few guesthouses, a few restaurants, some local warungs and no coral. Jemeluk is full of small guesthouses starting at Rp 150,00 per night for one and appeals to divers and those wanting a quiet holiday. Next is Bunutan where you find the villas and resorts in the Rp 350,000 and up price range that often have live bands and games such as beach volleyball and appeal to those wanting a social holiday! If you take the coast road to Amed rather than the more usual highway, you will come to Bunutan first, then Jemeluk and Amed.
Just west of the Pertamina oil storage facility between PadangBai and Candi Dasa is Amuk Bay. The Odyssey submarine tourist attraction has developed this entire area with the submarine office to the left as you approach the bay and a water sports activity area to the right. As little as ten years ago Amuk Bay was known as a pristine area, full of coral gardens. Today it is mostly covered by anemones with a few areas to the south and east struggling to survive. Close to the southern shore, there are patches of healthy growth.
Next spot to the East is Candi Dasa which has the distinct reputation of what not to do with coral! Many years ago the local people harvested the coral to use in building and to produce lime, destroying the reef. Although the diving is reportedly excellent in the area, the snorkeling off the beach
We snorkeled out to the wreck, about 40 meters from shore. It is situated parallel to the shore and was originally over 100m long. Seeing the shadows and light filtering through the water on the school of resident jackfish that hover around the north end of the boat was the best part of the trip. There are many soft corals near the top of the wreck; there can be some larger fish and rays, depending on water and feeding conditions. When I was there the visibility was poor and it was disappointing. Another formerly well regarded snorkeling area is just off the beach at Paradise Bungalows in Tulamben. Ten years ago it was reportedly a very healthy, well developed coral garden. Now it is mostly rubble with some corals coming back and a few very colorful fish. Nyoman, a Tulamben native and driver for White Sand Divers near the Japanese wreck, explains: “Tulamben has no current. Dirt comes down the river and covers the coral. No current to clean coral. Coral dies.” Since the coral was exceptionally healthy until recently, one can only speculate that this damage is due to deforestation, permitting the dirt to come down the mountain.
Sunrise in Jemeluk
The general consensus of dive operators as well as my experience is that Jemeluk and the Japanese wreck are by far the best options for off the shore snorkeling in East Bali. As always with snorkeling, it is safest to have a buddy. Water conditions can change dramatically from tide to tide and day to day. The fish are most active early morning and late afternoon. Sunny days are naturally best and rain hampers the visibility. Snorkeling near low tide is a way to see areas that have strong currents around high tide.
Jemeluk and Amed
Amarta low tide
Jemeluk has excellent snorkeling off the beach in a sheltered cove, making the water exceptionally calm with essentially no current. Small black pebbles with occasional white coral remains and minimal black sand make up this beach. Some dead coral as well as healthy growth characterize this area which is known for its abundance of large and colorful fishes, including large groupers coming in to feed. The area from Mama Dive to Dive Café has the healthiest coral.
When you follow the signs to Baliku resort south of Bunutan you will find the parking area for the Japanese wreck, across from Baliku. This wreck is a small boat with many soft corals growing on it. Just to the north of the wreck is a large area of extremely healthy and colorful hard and soft corals. You snorkel right off the very rocky beach after meandering through the multi-colored and well maintained fishing boats that are on shore. This area is more known for its healthy coral than abundant fishes. There is one warung geared to tourists where you can rent snorkel gear for Rp 25,000 and have a meal or drink. Parts of Bunutan proper offer snorkeling off the beach although reportedly not as healthy and diverse as at the wreck.
For East Bali a convenient way to travel is to stay in Candi Dasa where there are many mid-range hotels, the local favorite Amarta and one backpackers lodge. From there you can rent a motorbike or take a car to Padang Bai, Amuk Bay, and Singakirta/Amarta. After this, a trip to Amed for a couple of days will allow you to complete snorkeling the East Coast. Stay tuned for the next installment on North Bali.

Digital picture frames are growing fast in popularity, as prices come down and cool new features are added. You can buy one frame and display any number of pictures in it easily. Load digital images into the frame’s flash memory. Just touch a button to change the picture. You can even buy a digital picture frame with a WiFi connection and it will display images that are somewhere else, on the Web. Digital picture frames can do even more. But consider who will use the digital picture frame before you buy a fully tricked out one. Grandma probably just wants to see the grandkids; she doesn’t want to surf the Web looking for new pictures to display. So there should be just one button that lets her change photos, not a bunch of menus and submenus to figure out. Some digital frames have a built-in clock, calendar and alarm. Some can print photos to PictBridge enabled printers, or turn off automatically at night. And a remote control can be a nice feature, too. If you want to get really fancy, streaming Internet radio is a feature found in some high-end digital picture frames. You can hear a symphony while images that complement the music rotate through the frame. There are services like FrameChannel that combine libraries of images matched to tunes, and also let you specify your own pictures from Facebook, Photobucket, Picasa, and other online sources to be displayed when specific music plays. What About the Specs? Display resolution is critical in digital picture frames. Nothing below 640 x 480 pixels is acceptable, and realistically you want much more. Also consider the aspect ratio: 4:3 will be best for photos, while 15:9 is widescreen HD format. Displaying a standard 4:3 photo in a 15:9 frame will crop part of the image’s top. Incidentally, a good frame should be able to display a photo right side up in either portrait or landscape mode. If you want to watch videos in addition to viewing static photos, be prepared to pay a bit more for high-performance electronics. Test any picture frame in the store to see how fast it can change from one picture to another; some low-end frames take 9-10 seconds to do this simple task! Visibility is the essence of a picture frame, so you really should view a digital picture frame’s performance in person before buying it. Look at viewing angles; how far to either
You can expect to pay $69 or more for a basic 8-inch digital frame. Kodak, Phillips, Sony and other well-known electronics companies make good quality models. You might want to stay away from the no-name brands unless you can check it out in person first. Usability is not an issue with traditional frames but it is when you have buttons to push on a digital frame. Check out the controls around the frame’s edge or in its base. Are they easy to identify? Can you press, slide, or tap them easily? And how easy do they make it to add pictures to the digital photo frame? Some allow you to connect the device to your computer, then transfer images via drag & drop. Others let you insert a USB memory stick or a digital camera memory card. Even easier, eStarling TouchConnect (estarling.com) lets you email photos directly to the digital picture frame, which takes all the hassle out of it for the non-techie users. C/CI/G-14 July 10
A real personal note: I was given a digital picture frame as a gift. I LOVE it! It can take a USB drive or a SD card. It can do slideshows; show movies; it has a calendar with pictures; play music; has a remote control; can turn itself on or off at a certain time; and much more. I keep it in calendar mode that shows a month’s calendar, the time, and rotates through pictures! The prices and features do very so shop around. As I said, I love mine.

The Olympus Pen E-P1 has officially been bedazzled If you have tons of money to blow and a family member with a love of expensive shiny gadgets, you’re in luck. It turns out Olympus decided to jump on the shiny bandwagon and create their very own Swarovski covered camera. Some might have thought that the camera looked great without being covered in a bunch of frivolous shimmery rocks, but then again those people probably don’t have the cash for this anyway. Most people these days have to save up just to afford a decent quality normal camera, much less a good camera that’s covered in expensive crystals. The Olympus Pen E-P1 is limited edition from Harrods and comes with two different lenses. They aren’t bothering to list what type of lenses though. Perhaps they believe those that buy shiny cameras aren’t really concerned about the details. You can purchase this camera for the low price of £1999.99. For those curious, that translates into $3,315.

Reviews of English language books on Indonesia
Incredibly, ancient Balinese cultural traditions remain intact today alongside 21st century modernity and a highly developed tourist industry. Yet few visitors ever begin to really understand the colorful pageantry and the origins of the ritual practices that surround them virtually everywhere they travel on the island. Unpretentious and easily readable in its approach, Secrets of Bali is the key to this understanding. For succinct and wide ranging information about Balinese life, religion, festivals and offerings, architecture, music, dance, textiles, dress, carvings and paintings, manuscripts, food and much more, this is the book to which the visitor or the student can turn for answers which explain both traditional culture and the ever changing realities of contemporary life. A close reading will reveal a great number of facts that are little known to even long-term residents of Bali, whether it be such fascinating trivia as Walter Spies introducing Balinese artists to picture frames, the earliest surviving photographs of Bali were taken between 1862 and 1868, or that food prepared using a mortar and pestle tastes noticeably better than grinding the ingredients with a blender. The “secrets” revealed are not just about Bali but about the island’s historical and cultural significance in the larger universe of Indonesia and Southeast Asia. Did you know that Sembiran in northern Bali was visited by Indian traders as early as 210 B.C., that the first English colony founded anywhere was on the tiny island of Run in the Bandas, that there is no depiction of rice on Borobudur, and that wealthy homes in 18th century Batavia had cells to incarcerate Balinese slaves if they were disobedient? Most readers are also probably unaware that a major sect of Balinese Hinduism is based on the Hare Krishna philosophy, how dark complexions evolved in tropical regions, the Pejeng drum is the largest bronze drum ever found, the first Christian missionary to Bali was murdered, many Balinese temples in on the west coast have shrines dedicated to Muslim ancestors and that 11% of Bali’s population are migrants. A few misconceptions and misinterpretations are also exploded. For example, the sea is not seen as evil and unclean, an assertion found in much of the popular and even academic literature on Bali. Purification ceremonies regularly take place in the sea, ritual objects and a person’s ashes are taken to the ocean for purification, and the sea is the source of holy water. The quality of the book’s index enables the reader to readily access information. Indonesian and Balinese words in italics indicate the page number where the subject is discussed and there’s also a nine-page glossary that gives even more thorough definitions. Topics not found in the index can be found in the contents pages. If you wanted to find out about tumpek (certain days dedicated to respect

by Jonathan Copeland for objects) or the origin and choreography of the Kebyar Duduk dance, both the index and the glossary provide information. Educated at the University College London, Jonathon Copeland spent 25 years practicing law while traveling extensively in Bali where he researched and photographed all aspects of the culture. His formal university training is undoubtedly the source of his deep knowledge of the classics of Western literature and philosophy and of modern psychology which is so evident in the text. His many years as a lawyer taught him how to explain complex subjects easily. Co-author Ni Wayan Murni, born in Penestanan, is a well-known personality on the Bali scene and a pioneer of Balinese tourism. In 1974 Murni opened Ubud’s first real restaurant, Murni’s Warung, and also established the town’s first proper gallery of antique ethnic artifacts. On numerous occasions Murni took the author to places and religious ceremonies where he was the only non-Balinese.

In many ways, the book is also a cultural and social history of mankind and the planet as seen through the microcosm of the tiny island of Bali, constantly drawing parallels and comparisons with other cultures. The author consistently explains phenomena – from the Big Bang to the Bali Bomb - as it fits in the larger global context. Thus when the author discusses of Balinese history we get to learn about Chinese and Indian seafaring empires and 16th century Portugal; when he explains the Balinese calendar we learn about ancient Egypt and Rome. Copeland takes us back to the beginnings of human life in Indonesia as he discusses Java Man and even devotes three pages on the discovery in 2003 of “island dwarves” (the Hobbits) who died out 12,000 years ago. The book is full of small essays like how Bali got its name, a chapter on the core beliefs of Bali Hinduism, and the dramatic story of Danish trader Mads Lange, the White Raja of Bali.
C/BT/I-04 Nov 09
The last chapter, Summing Up, lays out the differences between Western and Asian cultures, the first step in avoiding misunderstandings, and the myriad ways in which the Balinese perceive and reason differently than Westerners. Encyclopedic in its coverage, the product of prodigious research, difficult subjects from the sublime to the arcane are simply explained in this well written and up to date work. Secrets of Bali is a valuable and authoritative reference source as well as an entertaining read for the visitor, scholar and Bali aficionado.

My husband thinks this is going too far, and my two children are really upset about it because this is where they do all their homework as well as use the computer for fun. I want to do right by my parents, but I also do not want to upset my husband or my kids. What should I do? Dr. ZZ: It sounds to me as if it’s time for your parents to make an adjustment. They came to live with YOU in your house – not the other way around. To displace your children for their convenience is too much to ask. You and your family need the space for purposes that work for you. The family has already made enough serious adjustments to the house to accommodate your parents at this point. Saying no to this next elaborate request is perfectly reasonable – as it is also reasonable that your parents pay
Dr. ZZ: In martial arts, the best line of self-defense when your opponent has a knife is to run for your life. No matter how good you think you are, you will most likely get cut if you engage with a person with a knife. In very much the same way, your friend’s tongue is a knife she uses to cut apart your character, your good name, and your friendships with others. The only question I have is: What in heaven’s name are you doing hanging around with her? If you hang around dogs, you’re going to get fleas. Chances are your selfesteem is so low you feel as if this is the best you deserve. My best advice is run! Take your dignity with you and don’t look back. The next time someone tells you about a nasty lie this girl tells, you want to be able to say, “Who her? We’re no longer friends, so I doubt that’s true.”

She doesn’t want to hear about anything from me, but I have to hear about things from her for years. Not only does she twist the truth and make up lies about me to her mom and boyfriend, I also think she does the same thing with our mutual friends. One of our mutual friends hasn’t spoke to me since the liar and I had our last argument, so I believe she is making up lies about me to our other friends too. Fortunately, we don’t have many of the same friends in common, but it still bothers me that I can’t defend myself. Who knows what she tells people!

Question: My friend and I got into a big argument a few months back. We are talking now, but anytime we argue, she makes me look worse by twisting the truth or making up a lie about me that never happened. She tells her mom and her boyfriend lies about me all the time, and sometimes she gets caught because they ask me why I did something, or they talk about the situation, and I realize that she is a liar. Anytime she wrongs me, it has to be dropped, but if I do something wrong or not so nice, I hear about it for the next 15 years. Yes, that’s right. She brings up fights from 15 years ago, and if she is rude to me she makes me drop it 15 minutes later.

Then my dad took ill and had to change his usual lifestyle. Instead of gardening, he started staying upstairs in their bedroom and watching TV. The problem with this is he always wants my mother to stay with him, and my mother hates being upstairs during the day. She wants to be in the kitchen instead. So she recently asked us to turn our kids’ study room, which is downstairs right next to the kitchen, into a second bedroom for her and my dad. My dad actually does not want the room downstairs, he would prefer to keep the upstairs guest room as his bedroom because our dog barks constantly at night, and the dog is downstairs. So as a solution to this, my mom asked if we would keep the upstairs bedroom for them for nighttime and put another bed in the kids’ study room so they could stay there if and when they need to rest during the day.

Question: I often read the letters in your column and find that you give very sensible advice, so I hope you can help me with my situation. My parents sold their home in Australia last year and moved in with my family and me in Bali. Since they have been living with us, my mother has had several requests. First, for example, she asked that we put a shower in the bathroom downstairs because she and my dad liked to garden and, if they came into the house full of dirt, they wanted to just walk straight into the bathroom and shower rather than have to worry about tracking dirt throughout the house. She also asked us to build a patio outside and to put a big screen TV in her bedroom, which had formerly been the guest room. She has always offered to pay for these changes, but my husband and I would never even think of allowing my parents to pay. We did everything she requested without asking anything in return.

The Ghost Writer Polish screenwriter and director Roman Polanski probably came to the general public’s attention with his spine chilling 1968 American horror classic ‘Rosemary’s Baby’, but, in 1979, when he fled the United States while awaiting sentencing on a charge of unlawful sexual intercourse, he has since been forced to conduct the rest of his career in Europe. This has not stopped him from becoming one of the most important screen directors of the second half of the 20th century, and, now, well into the 21st century, as his 2002 masterpiece ‘The Pianist’ can attest. There has always been a certain indefinable quality to Polanski’s work. There is always more in his movies to take in than just the plot. His latest movie ‘The Ghost Writer’ is no exception. Ewan McGregor plays a wimpy writer who takes on the job of ‘ghosting’ the autobiography of a retired British Prime Minister, smugly played by Pierce Brosnan. However, as the book gets underway, the ‘ghost’ discovers that there is much more to the politician than first meets the eye. The photography, editing, sets, locations, and music, all add considerably to the eerie ambience of the film. Polanski makes a mysterious political thriller. Killers Little does Katherine Heigl know, when she meets and falls in love with Ashton Kutcher, that she is about to marry a government employed super assassin. After 3 years of marital bliss, Katherine finally learns the truth, and, also discovers that the CIA have ‘burnt’ her husband, and that there is a multi-million dollar contract put out on his life. Suddenly, Katherine and Ashton don’t know whom they can trust, and their suburban paradise becomes a living hell. Okay, the plot sounds a little bit silly, but, this is actually quite an enjoyable piece of action and romantic fluff, directed by Robert Luketic. It’s all in the playing. Katherine and Ashton make a very charming and beautiful couple, while the rest of the ensemble cast, which includes Tom Selleck and Catherine O’Hara, provide excellent support. After.Life This movie locks into one of mankind’s deepest fears, being buried alive. After a car crash, poor Christina Ricci wakes up on a slab in a mortuary to discover a mortician, weirdly played by Liam Neeson, just about to prepare her for burial. Liam, ever so gently, tries to explain to Christina that she has been declared dead, and that she is in transition to the after life. As the film progresses, it gets stranger. Like Christina, you start to wonder if she really is alive, and has been drugged for Liam’s perverse pleasure. An awfully odd air of necrophilia permeates the movie. It is best not to think about it. The movie is extremely well made, but it is genuinely creepy and very upsetting. It’s a Wonderful Afterlife English Indian director Gurinder Chadha, the girl who brought us ‘Bend it like Beckham’ (2002), comes up with another delightful comedy, which pokes light-hearted fun at the ways of life of Britain’s Indian community. The mother of a rather plain and dumpy daughter, wants to make an arranged marriage for her, but, after being rejected by various people, the mother kills all the people in revenge, using an assortment of Indian foods. The victims come back to haunt the mother, as they can’t be reincarnated until the mother has atoned for her sins. I know. Your head is probably spinning already, but, the film is quite entertaining as it tackles a variety of Indian and English social customs. This doesn’t bear thinking about either: Towards the end of the movie Chadha provides us with a terrific re-staging of the closing sequences of Brian De Palma’s 1976 horror classic ‘Carrie’! Vampires Suck If ever there was a movie which thoroughly deserved to be ‘sent up’, it is that insipid romantic drivel ‘Twilight’. You know, that ridiculous twaddle about Vampire Love, which seemed to obsess every teenage girl world wide last year. Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer, the creators of

‘Epic Movie’, ‘Scary Movie’, ‘Disaster Movie’ and ‘Meet The Spartans’, deconstruct ‘Twilight’ scene by scene, in such an amusing manner that you can’t help but realize how absolutely stupid the original ‘Twilight’ was. Their version of the pubescent rubbish is lots of fun. It scores highly on the chuckle meter. Splice Directed by Vincenzo Natali, this is a bizarre French movie which looks at the controversial subject of genetic engineering. Adrien Brody and Sarah Polley play a pair of genetic research scientists, who ‘splice’ some animal DNA with human DNA, and create a new species. The result of their engineering is determined to stay alive. The movie tends to ramble around as it makes its moral points, nonetheless, being French, it is extremely stylish. The 41-Year-Old Virgin Who Knocked Up Sarah Marshall And Felt Superbad About It. Jokes which satirize recent American Movies, TV Shows, Current Affairs, Politicians, and Celebrities, come thick and fast in this review ‘skit’ kind of movie. It’s the kind of thing when one joke backfires, it’s onto the next one straight away. The humor is pretty crass, pretty sexist, and pretty offensive. Sex and the City 2 You have to be joking! Apart from being vulgar and vapid, this is the worst film ever made. A Cameo Appearance from Liza Minnelli is truly terrifying.

by Dr. Rob At Fifty Paintings by Hanafi At Komaneka Fine Art Gallery, Jl. Monkey Forest, Ubud Tel: 976090 To celebrate the fiftieth birthday of renowned Javanese artist Hanafi, the Komaneka gallery has staged an excellent exhibition of his recent works, entitled ‘At Fifty’. The exhibition has been brilliantly put together by local art critic and curator Jean Couteau, and it is a dazzling display of Hanafi’s talents. In the impressive catalogue which accompanies the exhibition, Couteau states that: “If we look at Hanafi’s work, what appears to confirm an absence of design, is a use of the elements of painting in ways that contradict their original functions. The line is not meant to delineate, or even less, to define. The colors carry no special emotions. There is no organized construction of composition to suggest any aesthetic intention, and the forms that come up do not try to be archetypes. Burung Tau We feel we are in a strange fluctuating kind of color space, the object of which is obviously to convey not ‘signs’, but rather states of the soul”. Couteau suggests that Hanafi is dealing in feelings yet to be named. Emotions yet to be fully felt, that somehow hang about at the lowest levels of the psyche, which Freud called the ‘id’. Continuing on, Couteau feels that in his work, Hanafi proceeds like a poet. Just as a poet utilizes words to disrupt meaning, and sounds to add feeling to meaning, all to reach deeper into the indefinite sublime, Hanafi too thrives in crossing boundaries. His colors, lines, Jalan Menuju Rumah forms and shapes do not aim at defining, explaining, or even telling anything known. Their role is more fundamentally to broaden possibilities. To extend to unknown depths the field of feelings and emotions. Painting, for Hanafi, is to him like poetry is to poets. An art to explore the mysteries of being alive, the depth of his own and the human psyche. As a viewer, you need go no further than the pieces ‘Burung Tau’, ‘Jalan Menuju Rumah’ and‘Rumah Orang Asing’ to discover the extraordinary depths of this talented artist. Hanafi and Couteau have mounted an Rumah Orang Asing enthralling exhibition. Eksplo(ra)si Works from Undiksha and ISI universities At Hanna Art Space, Jl. Raya Pengosekan, Ubud Tel: 978216 Part of the practices of art studies these days is to investigate the processes of ‘experiment’ and ‘exploration’. It is expected that art students will gain numerous advantageous experiences through ‘experiment’ and ‘exploration’, resulting in the development of inventive ideas, concepts, themes, and aesthetic expressions. Consequently, in line with the characteristics of ‘experiment’ and ‘exploration’, the intention of the exhibition, ‘Eksplo(ra) si’, is to present recent works of art from the students
attending both the Undiksha Singaraja and ISI Denpasar universities. The title of the exhibition requires explanation. There are two words combined. First, ‘eksplorasi’, meaning the exploration of a subject with the aim of obtaining new knowledge Sasaranku from a new situation, and, the second, ‘eksplosi’, which means a loud noise caused by a sudden boom or explosion. In other words, ‘Eksplo(ra)si’, could mean exploration and explosion. By suggestion, this show means to expose the artistic achievements of the students’ ‘explorations’, and it is expected that they will ‘explode’ onto the local art scene in the very near future. With work from over 30 students, the Hanna Art Space has created an impressive exhibition which showcases Cleopatra the issues, styles, and trends, which are of concern to this emerging batch of young artists. There’s a wide range of subject-matter on show, but, the consistent level of energy and skills on display is most impressive. With such an abundance of good art, it’s unfair to single out particular works, however, Agus Ramantha’s hyperreal political statement ‘Sasaranku’, Nyoman Sutrisni’s Pop Icon ‘Cleopatra’, and Wayan Sedanayasa’s geometric abstract ‘Refleksi Hasrat’ are three examples of the variety and excellence to be found. Refleksi Hasrat Treasures & Gifts of Nature Jewellery by Nicole Moja At Alila Living Gallery, Desa Melinggih, Kelod Payangan, Ubud. Tel: 975963 The Alila Gallery is mounting an exhibition of the work of renowned jewellery designer Nicole Moja. Born in Paris, Nicole is a true cosmopolitan, speaking five languages. She was raised in Italy from the age of 10, and received advanced education in Switzerland, Moja Jewellery 1 England and Japan. After graduating from university in Tokyo, where she studied International Communications, she lived there for a further 8 years, working in PR & Advertising. Moving to Hong Kong, Nicole set up her own company designing for top fashion houses. For the past 16 years Nicole has had a house in Bali where she spends a lot of time, when she is not travelling. Moja Jewellery 2 Nicole fulfilled a longstanding ambition 17 years ago when she put together her first collection of jewellery. Since the early 1990s the Moja Jewellery Collection has grown, developing a reputation for the high-quality and artistry of its pieces, which has won a devoted following amongst jewellery connoisseurs around the world. Learning about different cultures has always held a fascination for Nicole, and travel has provided an endless source of inspiration.
Colors, textures, and what people wear in different parts of the world, all become the seeds for her creations. Nicole’s collection of rings, necklaces, bracelets and earrings, crafted from colourful gemstones and set in gold and silver, combine artistry with elegance. Nicole Moja’s ‘Treasures & Gifts of Nature’ exhibition transforms gemstones, the marvels of nature, into jewellery which marvelously inspires the heart and spirit.

Bringing English to Bali Villages & Beyond By Michele Cempaka There are many children on Bali that would love to have the opportunity to learn English for free from native speakers, but while there are many English language schools in Bali, most if not all of these schools require tuition. Thankfully, there are also numerous yayasans throughout Bali that are offering free English classes for both Indonesian children and adults. Yayasan Cahaya Pendidikan Anak (YCPA) is the latest newcomer which is doing just that. Its humble beginnings in 2009 came about after a young German man named Henning Voges came to Bali and became enamored with the rich culture on offer here. He had just finished a volunteer program in Thailand with ‘Travel to Teach’, where he gained first hand experience as a volunteer English teacher. During his month in Thailand, he spent his days teaching English to Thai children and loved every minute of it. “I felt inspired by my experience as a volunteer teacher, because I was no longer just a tourist - I was living and working with the Thai people, which helped me gain a deeper insight into their culture.” Henning brought this enthusiasm with him and became inspired by the idea of creating a similar program, in which volunteers could come to Bali and teach English to orphaned children and others who were in need. Thus, he decided that the best way to do this was to set up his own Yayasan. It was no small task, but he was committed to realizing his vision. Consequently, YCPA was created with two purposes: 1). To support the Indonesian educational system by offering free English classes to Indonesian children. 2). To make a program that would give graduates and people wanting a break from their career a chance to travel and experience another culture through volunteer work. “Volunteers who live and work in a culture have the opportunity to go much deeper compared to being a tourist,” said Henning Voges, Director of YCPA. Since Henning had already experienced how effectively ‘Travel to Teach’ operated their program in Thailand, he asked them to team up with YCPA to send volunteers to Bali, and they agreed. Thus began a solid partnership which has greatly contributed to the success of YCPA. ‘Travel to Teach’ continues to regularly send volunteers to Bali who teach English for 4 - 8 weeks in one of the programs that Henning has set up. There are currently four programs: 1. 2.
Bumi Sehat - teachers go to clinic and teach English to the staff and midwives. Volunteers teach English to elementary, middle school and high school students at a private learning centering in Gianyar.
3.
4.
Volunteers teach English to the children at ‘Panti Asukan Yappenatim’ orphanage in Gianyar. The classes are taught five days a week for approximately 30 - 40 students. Volunteers work together with classroom teachers at a senior high school in Semarapura, Klung Kung. SMA2 is an SBE school with international standards that require them to have international teachers or a volunteer teacher exchange program.
Additionally, YCPA is planning to partner with another program in England called ‘Sacred Childhoods’, which is interested in assisting YCPA with a focus on improving living conditions in orphanages throughout Bali. In late August, YCPA and Sacred Childhoods will also team up on the ‘Sehati Project’, which is based in Solo, Java. This program is designed to assist women and children who have been forced into prostitution, by providing them with opportunities for education, training and alternative employment, as well as a comprehensive health program. YCPA’s goal is to start sending volunteers to Solo, to teach these women and children English.
C/G/I-11 August 10
YCPA has gotten off to a good start with the help of ‘Travel to Teach’ and potential alliances with other organizations. In the future, YCPA would also like to create a sponsorship program in which the sponsor would pay for one or more child’s education enabling him/her to continue through senior high school. Ideally, the sponsor would be connected with a child and his/her family, forming a special relationship throughout the child’s school life. Henning is currently sponsoring two Balinese children with their school fees, and asserts that it is relatively affordable to do so. “I really want to have a great program on Bali. After we reach this goal, then hopefully by 2011 I can extend this program to other islands throughout Indonesia,” said Henning. In addition, YCPA would also like to get donations for the Panti Asukan Yappenatim orphanage which was hit by a landslide two months ago and has suffered extensive damage as a result. The 25 year old orphanage is in great need of major repairs. Moreover, 125 children live and sleep in only 13 bedrooms. The space available to them is grossly insufficient, but there is currently not enough funding to expand the orphanage.

Bali Skeptic By Lee Roy LeRoi
Strutting Across the Stage of Wisdom “To know that you do not know is the best. To pretend to know when you do not know is a disease.” – Lao Tzu, Chinese philosopher Americans of a particular political persuasion – at least the Americans who live mostly north of Mexico, south of Canada, and who now and then do something beside play computer games, log Facebook time and follow the intrigues of Lady G, LiLo and Paris – would have found delicious irony in the July announcement that right-wing radio and TV jock Glenn Beck may go blind from macular dystrophy. I bear Beck no ill-will – although he is a confused, possibly deranged, con man and scam artist. There is just something irresistible about the thought of the man who claims he knows the way out of the American national morass being struck sightless. It brings a grim smile to my face. If this is divine justice, it comes with irrefutable evidence of a deific sense of humor.
figures, a few women, an organizer and day-planner or two, and various other deities, manifestations, belief systems and sports teams. There has been a 100-percent failure rate. No entity, nobody, no creed has all the answers to all the questions; yet I, we, perversely keep assigning omnipotence to one thing after another, always expecting to find that magical mantra or person that will bring clear skies and smooth sailing for ever after. Why do we persist? Why do we keep putting our faith in things we know are going to fail? Computers, weathermen, the prognostications of last year’s stock whiz, daily horoscopes. The only real answer I see is that we are afraid of the Socratic admittance of ignorance. We don’t know what it’s all about, we don’t know what will keep our children safe at night, we don’t know how much longer the earth – or at least humanity’s participation in it – can last given the extent to which we’ve been fouling our only nest, we don’t know what’s coming next or what to do about it if we did.
There is always pleasure when designated leaders of whatever kind are shown to be fallible and foolish. It is the basis on which news agencies log every foible and track every disaster of celebrity and politician alike, with the sure knowledge that the reading and viewing public cannot resist headlines and lead-ins that tease of scandal and incompetence.
We see “I don’t know” as being the answer of the powerless. The power, we think, is being “in the know,” having the skinny and the scoop … and that’s where strength could possibly lie, only that no one is really in the know, no one has the sanctified inside track that leads without fail to comfort and glory.
We take perverse joy in learning that religious heads sometimes don’t know which direction we should pray, that CEOs and other suits cannot prevent market crashes or correctly operate blow out preventers, that politicians and TV news folk really are just pretty talking faces who like the look and sound of their mouths as they form around particular turns of phrase.
After the first few minutes of panic when you discover that the men and women on the watch are fools, that they have no idea what’s coming next anymore than you do, and that there may be no guiding, all-powerful, competent hand at the switch after all, then it is possible to sit back, relax and enjoy the wonderful jokes we play on one another when we take on airs of knowledge.
The question is why – amid so much evidence that no one has anymore of clue than anyone else about what it’s all about – do we keep dogging after imposters and snakeoil salesman in enough numbers that what they say has weight and consequence? Perhaps it is some fundamental flaw of humanity, or maybe just an unshakeable residual childhood belief that surely our parents or some other grownups know best. It seems an assumption that we cannot overcome, this hopeful belief that somewhere out there is someone or something that is a reliable guide, an all-knowing and benevolent patron who will lead us through all trouble and strife to safe shores and gentle tides.
And there may be some consolation in the great leveling power of mutual ignorance, in knowing that from the lowest of us to the highest, we are bewildered when confronted with the great shell game of the cosmos and the hidden pea of truth. It is a great relief when we notice that this game is rigged and that it’s best not to play.
Over the course of my almost five decades, I have trusted in the Judeo-Christian god, several father and brother

Egg Shells in the Garden
Eggshells can be used in a variety of ways to enrich your garden. Eggshells provide a valuable source of calcium for growing plants and also deter certain pests without the need for chemicals. Eggshells consist of 93% calcium carbonate and other trace elements that make them a practical fertilizer. The composition of an eggshell is very similar to that of our bones and teeth. A medium sized eggshell makes about one teaspoon of powder, which yields about 750 - 800 mgs of calcium. Eggshell calcium is probably the best natural source of calcium, and it is easy for the human body to digest and absorb too. In fact many people eat powdered egg shells as a dietary supplement. Likewise your plants can also benefit from this source of calcium. In the garden, for fertilization purposes make sure you crush the eggshells before you add them to your garden. Crushing the eggshells helps them to break down so that they may readily supply calcium to your plants. Without adequate amounts of calcium, plants experience a variety of problems. If calcium is deficient the cell walls of a plant become weak and unstable. The stronger the cell wall, the stronger the plant, and the quicker its recovery from the enormous pressures that it is faced with in the garden. This applies for both leaves and roots. The stronger the root cells are, the more aggressively the roots will be moving through the soil. Sufficient levels of calcium also assist in the efficient use of sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, nitrogen and minerals. Calcium also plays a major role in the construction of numerous hormones, and enzyme systems that can help protect the plant from insect and disease attack. To prepare, your eggshells should be washed first or they could attract pests into your garden. Put the shells in a plastic bag and then crush them by hand, if you are really dedicated you may then powder them in the blender if desired. The powdered or crushed eggshells are best placed around fruit trees, tomatoes, roses and in potted plants, though it will be of benefit anywhere in the garden! The powder is very useful for tomatoes because the extra calcium will help prevent blossom end rot. This is a condition which causes tomatoes and other vegetables to develop black patches on one end. Blossom end rot is caused by insufficient calcium or poor absorption, so a ready supply at root level is a good preventive measure. Sprinklings of crushed eggshells can be added and tilled directly into the garden soil. They can also be added to the soil mixture of seedlings or to the bottom of potted plants. The water used to cook hard boiled eggs is also a valuable source of calcium. Allow the cooking water to cool to room temperature and then simply pour it around the base of vegetable or house plants to provide added nutrients. Alternatively you can soak the crushed eggshells in water for a few days to make a ‘calcium tea’ to feed your plants with. Crushed eggshells can also naturally assist in deterring some pests from a vegetable garden. There is nothing worse than growing a vegetable or fruit from seed only to come out one morning and see it has been eaten and destroyed by slugs or snails. Snails require a smooth surface to move. If they come across a barrier of sharp grit they will not be able to pass. The sharp edges of the shells can be deadly to any
slithering creatures, such as slugs and cutworms. Spread crushed eggshells around the base of seedlings. When the pests such as snails or slugs make their way toward the plants, they will be deterred by the rough edges of the crushed shells. For organic growers this is also the best way to protect your plants, it is the cheapest easiest and most natural solution. Not only are you protecting your plants from being eaten and destroyed you are also giving them extra food as well. Eggshells can also be used as planters for small seedlings and be put directly in the ground for planting. Make a small drainage hole in the bottom of an empty eggshell, with a pin. Add soil and put it in an open egg box. Sow the seeds and care for them as you would any other seedlings. The shell will provide a natural slow release fertiliser for your seed as it germinates. When the seedlings are ready to transplant into the garden, squeeze the shell gently to crack it and then place it in the ground. The roots will push through the cracks in the shell which will decompose naturally.

Egg shells are ideal for use as seedling planters
Another commonly discarded kitchen waste item is coffee grounds (tea leaves as well for that matter), which can be particularly useful in the garden. Used coffee grounds contain about two percent nitrogen, and many trace minerals. They are particularly useful on those plants for which you would apply an ‘acid food’ such as evergreens, azaleas, roses, camellias, avocados, and certain fruit trees. I store old coffee grounds in a tin and then scatter them lightly mainly around the roses. Don’t scatter them thickly when they are wet, because the coffee grounds have a tendency to get moldy.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth
HELPING EMPLOYEES TO HELP THEMSELVES Expats in Bali may be employed, self-employed or retired. Many are employers of large numbers of staff themselves, but just about every expat will employ someone, be it simply a maid, driver or gardener. A CALL FROM RECEPTION A little while ago I had a call from our reception desk to say that there was a gentleman asking for me. I was not expecting a visitor but I went to reception to meet him. I recognized him at once as a driver who worked for the same oil company as mine when I was in Jakarta 25 years ago in a previous incarnation. He had managed to track me down through a newspaper article I had written. I quickly gathered that his visit was not purely a social one. Within minutes he had broken down in tears saying he was jobless and penniless. I recalled that he had left the oil company when it restructured after a merger. He subsequently had several jobs but now that age had caught up with him no-one would employ him. I recalled also that when he left the company he would have received a relatively generous (by local standards) lump sum severance payment. There was no company pension as such in those days, not even for employees retiring after a lifetime of service. Just a ‘pasangon’ or ‘big table’ as it is called, a lump sum paid in cash on the final day. In most cases this would have been the biggest sum of money ever to pass through their hands. But pass through their hands it did, usually very quickly as the needs of the extended family were met. In most cases the money disappeared within days. Of course the system can work both ways. The unemployed or retired person can usually count on family to help support him in turn. But when that traditional family support is missing, as it is for increasing numbers due to urbanization, the future is bleak. THE IMPORTANCE OF RETIREMENT PLANNING In 25 years things have improved in Indonesia. My former company now has a proper pension scheme for its local employees. As do most large companies and many smaller ones. All have to contribute to Jamsostek which ensures there will be some benefit accruing to the employee. But this is minimal and a responsible employer can now turn to a number of companies that provide corporate pension schemes. Employees should be encouraged to make their own contributions in addition to those of the employer in order to get them into a mindset of providing for their future. Employers should also take an active interest in how the pension scheme is administered. Is the fund properly invested so that it will grow with inflation? Is there inflation-proofing for eventual pension payments? Under the current government we have seen a degree of stability in the Rupiah not witnessed for years. But this has not always been the case. When I first came to Indonesia in 1983 the rate of exchange was Rp.600 to the US Dollar. Today it is close to Rp.9,000. So let’s say someone retired in 1983 with a pension (if that was possible) of Rp.300,000 a month. This would have been equivalent to $500. Not a bad pension at the time. But if there was no provision for inflation the same amount today would be worth only $33 a month. Little more than a dollar a day. Preparing employees for retirement does not stop at pensions. Progressive companies in Indonesia now hold seminars and workshops for staff in the years leading to retirement. They include advice on managing their finances, ideas on how to run small businesses and opening their eyes to new activities. If you employ domestic staff it does no harm to encourage them to open a small bank account, if only to help them widen their horizons beyond living from hand to mouth. The education process will be a slow one. Fifty years ago in the UK few people had bank accounts and wages were paid in cash. DO EXPATRIATE STAFF NEED ANY HELP? So far I have focused on the needs of national staff. What about expatriates? Do they need advice and guidance? Of course not, you may say; they have generous remuneration packages and can be safely left to their own devices. The reality is often not the case. One of
the first things that an expatriate usually loses when he moves overseas is continued membership of a company pension scheme. Many also choose to stop contributing to their respective state schemes. The result? More spending money to enjoy the good expat life while it lasts – followed by grim reality and impending hardships in retirement to follow. The family support still enjoyed by most Indonesians who might otherwise be destitute rarely applies to Westerners.

Most expats seriously underestimate how much wealth they need to accumulate to live comfortably in retirement. A survey a few years ago determined that a British couple returning to live in the UK would need a minimum of GBP2,000 a month, assuming they already had a house and a car. To generate such an income would require a capital sum in the region of half a million pounds on the basis of an annual return of 5%. And that’s before we take into account inflation. Many say they plan to retire in Bali where they can live more cheaply. But this overlooks the potential cost of medical care in later years when insurance premiums are out of reach. Or the continued uncertainty of rights as a foreigner. WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? Not the responsibility of the employer you may say, but when an expat gets into his fifties and has growing concerns about his future finances and security it can impact his health and performance. Employers can help by regularly counseling their staff to ensure they are not neglecting their financial planning. One large hotel group invited me to address their General Managers in the region on the subject and a quick survey around the audience revealed a surprising lack of awareness of financial planning essentials, particularly pensions and life insurance. I have also addressed groups of teachers at schools in Bali and again find that only a minority have structured financial plans. Most employers provide adequate medical insurance but life cover is typically limited to two or three years’ salary. This is seriously inadequate in the case of a breadwinner with a young family. Other neglected areas include frozen pensions and issues pertaining to death and estate matters. There are hundreds of thousands of British expatriates with pensions locked up in the UK. Most are unaware that they can now be freed up and taken early through a QROPS scheme and they are no longer obliged to take an annuity that will die with them. Many of those with significant wealth are unaware of trust and tax planning opportunities that are available to them. Whose responsibility is it to keep them informed? Multinational companies have their HR departments but in a small company it falls on the local manager or owner.

MEANWHILE, BACK AT RECEPTION So what happened to the former company driver waiting for me at reception? I listened sympathetically and gave him some money. Predictably he came back a few more times, each time promising it would be the last. I contacted my former company and found he had been appealing for help there too. No doubt he had also been in touch with other people he worked for in the intervening 25 years. A sad situation, but one that must affect vast numbers of people in Indonesia. The situation is improving but will need support from both government and employers to provide more financial security and also to educate people to look beyond the pressing needs of the day.

Don’t Throw REDD out with the Bathwater Just make sure the Safeguards work I
don’t recall who said it, probably Oscar Wilde, but whoever it was defines a cynic as just another disappointed optimist. Nowhere in our age would this be more true than in the arena of climate change. A healthy skepticism in all spheres when it comes to what politicos and corporate honchos of all stripes and their pet boffins tell us is clearly warranted. Cynicism can even be an attractive quality, when accompanied by a reasonable degree of self-knowledge. It’s dangerous however when motivated by prejudice, passivity, sense of hopelessness or mild doses of habitual paranoia. Cynicism does not automatically mean inaction or intellectual laziness, but is very often an excuse for both.
Opinion polls over the past year tell us the majority of people today no longer believe climate change is a threat. A year ago the majority was worried about climate change and wanted something done. I don’t buy it, the majority of us are worried but don’t know what to do about it. We’re confused by the science and conflicting claims, have little faith in our politicians, whom we feel are in the pockets of big corporations. We don’t want our lives made more difficult or expensive, especially when we have a strong sense that cheats will prosper at our expense (just like the bankers in the recent financial meltdown). In short, we have a strong suspicion we’re being railroaded.
Climate Change is Real
Meantime the planet continues to cook, glaciers melt, our over-fished seas turn toxic, our forests and wildlife disappearing, world population soars, hunger, disease and poverty are endemic in many parts of the world. Rich or poor - we are drowning in our own filth. Great progress has been made in many areas confronting these challenges and if we had all the time in the world, who knows, we might eventually achieve Great Society status for all - at least we had the luxury of dreaming that one day we might get there.
of capitalism, corporate fat cats and cheats should not blind us to the merits of ideas like REDD.
What’s the Downside?
Let’s take a gallop through some of them. Corruption: The countries with the most forest, Brazil, Indonesia, Congo, Papua, etc.) are not renowned for honest governance. These countries to varying degrees all continue to log and degrade peatland. First there’s the central government, then the army, well-connected businessmen, the police, provincial and local government, all of whom will seek to be involved in the process. The need for stringent safeguards, monitoring and sanctions is very clear. However world bodies like the UN and the World Bank, IMF etc. have not historically shown themselves to be very effective in making sure the money does not get siphoned off by national élites.
Benefits of REDD
The potential advantages are clear. Best of all, it would make a significant dent in global carbon emissions equal to all forms of transportation by air, sea and land annually. Our forests and peatlands are carbon sinks, the rain forest stores 300 billion tons Co2 equal to forty times our annual global total of GHG emissions. Plants convert Co2 into oxygen via photosynthesis thus regulating climate. Destroy the forests and you damage the process, putting any solution to climate change beyond human reach. You also release all that stored Co2 back into the atmosphere. REDD serves to protect wildlife habitat and biodiversity, it protects the culture and traditional rights of indigenous peoples. It allows them to maintain their culture, by providing the means to pay for the modern facilities they want via better education, medical services, clean water & sewage treatment, roads and communication etc. In short, REDD promises to do all this and do more to avert catastrophic climate change than grounding all jets and banning coal. A rare and effective partnership of capitalism and conservation in action. So what’s wrong with REDD? Nothing at all really. Properly implemented and monitored, with effective safeguards and sanctions, REDD can deliver on all of the above. However you do not have to be unduly cynical to spot where things could very easily go astray.

Financing & Administration: Who’s actually putting all this together? Inevitably there will be some wide boys getting in on the act, but usually it’s an NGO or group of international businessmen with connections to investment banks and their clients, large corporations in the mining, palm oil and agroextractive industries operating in REDD host countries. What about the traditional owners and their rights? Ownership is a complex legal question, which needs to be addressed with all parties beforehand, especially central governments whose various ministries fight to control what they rightly or wrongly see as national resources. What do you do when the traditional owners want to have it both ways, taking the money for part of their land for REDD and flogging off other tracts to Sinar Mas and BHP Billiton? That’s within their rights too, logically.
The Money is Mega
The sums of money involved are potentially colossal. Here’s how it works with a pilot 150,000 ha REDD project in a remote part of Papua But not any more, we don’t. Climate Niugini. An Australian Company ‘X’ change is the great game changer. acting as broker invests its time and The latest scientific consensus in a money negotiating with the clans report released at the Copenhagen involved spending upwards of a year Climate Change Conference last Sinar Mas excavator cutting through a forest during development of visiting and staying with them. December clearly states unless the palm oil plantation at in West Kalimantan Company ‘X’ is in competition with the world’s carbon emissions peak big boys in LPG, nickel, gold, coffee, between 2012 to 2015 and drop substantially thereon in, we can kiss goodbye to all hope of keeping global warming below palm oil etc., who are all after clan lands too and promising much. 2˚C. If that happens, then all our hopes and efforts are vain as Trust is established an agreement reached and Company ‘X’ goes to market looking for a few million US$ financing. the Mother Nature imposes her own remedy. One of the few hopeful things to come out of the Copenhagen meeting, which signally failed to agree to binding curbs on carbon emissions, was the decision to proceed and fund REDD, which stands for the Reducing of Emissions from Deforestation & Degradation. In brief, what this means is that a mechanism has been devised whereby rich countries pay poorer countries, fortunate enough to have large tracts of tropical forest left, large amounts of money not to cut them down. This is funded by the sale of carbon credits to companies wishing to reduce their carbon exposure, who cannot or will not do so themselves.

A typical valuation by World Bank standards shows 150,000 ha of virgin rainforest saved x 3% x 200 tonnes carbon per hectare saved is valued at between US$10 to $28 per tonne. That means this pilot project will earn between US$9.0m and $$25.2m per annum for 30 years. Company ‘X’ takes 20% of this and the remainder is meant to go to the benefit of stakeholders in a manner to be agreed between all parties. Company ‘X’ warrants they will be the ones disbursing the money and ensuring it gets spent in the manner intended. Meantime Company ‘X’ is in discussions for a much larger REDD project on a 760,000 ha slice of PNG rainforest. This would earn anything between US$25.6m to $71.6m per annum for a 30-year period. 20% of that - at a possible $14.3m per year for the next 30 years is a nice chunk of change. And if it works as it should, I reckon they earned it. Other mega REDD projects are currently under way in Indonesia. The Norwegian government have undertaken to pay Indonesia $1 billion over the next 8 years on REDD projects. The Norwegians, unlike the Australians, will not use REDD as an excuse to avoid action on domestic emissions, are exercising due diligence and taking steps to protect the local stakeholders. In Aceh another mega REDD project is underway organized by a British NGO, which at least promises to monitor these aspects effectively. In Central Kalimantan the Australian government has backed another huge REDD project with backing from BHP Billiton who have coal mines in the area, which appears wanting when it comes to such safeguards.
C/Ho/I-16 Dec 09
For those of us here who are not part of the Indonesian political process, we can at least support those who are and organizations in our own countries seeking to cut emissions and expect internationally agreed safeguards for REDD projects are honoured. Someone had to say it, and of course they have….better our forests are REDD than dead.
First of all, does it make sense to pay other people not to cut down trees so you can continue to pollute at will by buying cheap carbon credits? A good point, and exactly what the Australian © Tom Faunus government stands accused of by many international NGOs. tom.faunus@gmail.com How does that reduce GHG emissions globally? Clearly, governments and corporations in the developed world must take Copyright © 2010 effective action to reduce Co2 emissions as well (Australia take You can read all past articles of EcoWatch note). But even if they don’t, we’d be even worse off if we destroy at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz the forests. So let’s not be eco dogs-in-a-manger about it. Hatred C/Ho/G - 14 July 10

“Gremlins and a New World Order” We have all come across those strange stories about people who walk under street lamps and make them go out. Some people consider this perfectly possible however, from a technical point of view, it is as likely as Rasputin being invited to a meeting of the policy committee of the Islamic Defenders Front. People zapping computers with lightening bolts however is a whole other matter. Years ago I got first hand experience. I was sharing a house with a woman who had a bit of a problem. She would turn on her computer and within minutes of sitting at the keyboard the thing would crash. Yes I know that happens to most of us, most of the time, but this was not your average crash, the grey box would crackle and pop and the screen would flash and go blank. This had been going on for rather a long time, a period of years rather than hours, and she was starting to get just a little bit lacking in the happiness and contentment department. So I did what any neighbourly engineer would do, I drilled a hole in her left foot, bolted a piece of 6mm copper cable to it and fastened the other end to a 4 metre copper rod which I drove deep into the garden. Nothing like a good bit of grounding to suppress a throng of over exuberant anarchistic electrons. She sat down, smiled at me thankfully and switched on her computer…. As usual a particularly lazy dose of time crawled by during which you wonder what exactly is going on in there and if you have been conveniently forgotten by that little man who loads up the hard drive. Then suddenly, without warning, flash, pop, kerzap! - it crashed.

We all know what useful devices ball valves are, when the valve stops working we lose our sense of harmony with the world and end up having to find buckets to fill up the toilet cistern. Most of us use water pumps to pump water from a bore and to pump water through our household plumbing systems. Household water pumps usually have 2 pressure sensors. A low pressure sensor which switches the pump on and a high pressure sensor that switches the pump off. The majority of problems we have with our water pumps are caused by faults in these pressure sensors. C/BM/I-21 April 10
We are all familiar with air conditioners and refrigerators and their temperature sensors which, once again, switch the machine on or off depending on the temperature the sensor reads.
WOODEN BLINDS
Some sensors are very important and keep us safe. Water heaters have thermostats to measure the water temperature and switch off the electric heating element. If the water gets too hot and starts to boil we may be in serious trouble. Many gas appliances have heat sensors that sit in the gas flame to detect if the flame goes out. If the sensor goes cold it will know the flame has gone out and switch off the gas supply.
Gremlins are those mischievous little sprites that inhabit mechanical and electronic devices and interfere with their workings for the sole purpose of causing as much bother as possible. Some rather naive people think they are imaginary but I can assure you that rather a lot of people have spent many years researching and creating “gremlins”. To the technical world gremlins are very important. They are a constant reminder that we should not take technology for granted, they maintain the mystique and of course they provide a never ending supply of work to service centres. Gremlins are bad enough but a far more sinister creature is a “neurogrem. A neurogrem is, of course, a gremlin that is able to sense activity in the neural pathways of the brain, put simply they can sense our mood. So where did the idea of neurogrems originate? This has been a topic of considerable conjecture among technical experts for many years but I have a sneaky suspicion it has something to do with photocopiers. Have you never noticed that those machines are alive? Somehow they know that you are in a hurry or stressed and immediately they start jamming, chewing up paper or running out of toner. The photocopier was, of course, invented by a man called Jester Carlson back in 1938 and it is said that he was a bit of a practical joker with a disturbing sadistic streak. He invented a rather clever machine for photographing and printing images but he just couldn’t help himself, he had to keep reminding people that his machine was firmly in control and that we would have to be patient. The secret to Jester’s device was a “sensor” which sits in the bowels of the photocopier waiting to wreak havoc on any unsuspecting poor soul who is in any way stressed, irritable or grumpy and needs a copy fast. He managed to develop gremlins that were able to tune into our emotional state of mind. He created the first neurogrems. Sensors were an unusual concept back in 1938 but are very common these days and in fact we unknowingly are surrounded by them. They make our lives easier by providing control (or chaos as the case may be) and in many ways they manage our lives. They operate day in day out waiting for information and ready at a moment’s notice to make a decision and adjust something for us. A sensor is the main component in equipment feedback systems. A machine or piece of equipment uses a sensor of some kind to measure or take note of something and feeds the information back to the machine to switch itself on, switch itself off or adjust something. One of the early forms of sensor is the trusty ball valve used for over a hundred years in toilet cisterns and water tanks. The ball floats on the surface of water and “senses” when the water level

Of course we all know about gremlins don’t we? We come across them all the time.
Our electrical circuits have contact breakers that detect if the flow of electricity is more than it should be. A high flow of electricity suggests a fault in an electrical circuit such as a short circuit that can cause fire. A high flow of electricity causes the circuit breaker to switch off the power supply. Before we had modern circuit breakers we had fuses to cut the power off . These worked by melting a thin piece of wire if they got too hot. By the way, believe it or not, some old houses still have fuses, if your house has fuses it is a good idea to replace them with circuit breakers particularly bearing in mind that many fuses were “fixed” with such sensible things as silver foil or bits of wire.

Designers of these various sensing devices tend to make sure that if they fail they will fail in the safe position. You will find that if your thermostat fails in your water heater the heater will not switch on. Similarly if the gas heat sensor fails you will not get the gas to flow. In more recent times we have smoke alarms to detect fire and sprinkler systems that automatically turn on the water if they detect heat. Obviously sensors of various kinds play an increasingly important role in our lives, By combining sensors with clever electronic systems and mini computers they are becoming increasingly programmable. A whole science has been built up and is known as “control engineering” that is applied to many applications in our modern world such as controlling automated production lines, traffic systems and war machinery such as guided missile systems and robotic attack aircraft. BP are in the poo at the moment but how would they have got on without the availability of remotely controlled submersibles. At a more local level we are all familiar with televisions that are able to tune themselves automatically. I have a satellite television system that picks up free to air television stations from around the world. It has a satellite dish that can move from one satellite to another to pick up a large number of programmes (ever watched “Neighbours” in Swahili?) Sensors are used to accurately determine the position of the satellite dish, to measure the signal strength and to receive any instructions I may give it by using my remote control and selecting any particular programme. It can be easily appreciated that in an ever more sophisticated world there will be more and more opportunities for neurogrems to play their mischievous games and, of course, Murphy’s Law dictates that it will always be when the cup final is on or when the boss and his wife have come to tea. When it does you now have the perfect excuse, you can blame the neurogrems.

Ross Macfarlane:
?
Bamboo Guru
C/Ns/S-27 Jan. 10
handsome houses. The only electric tools used in construction are drills. It helps the local economy, cleans up pollution in the soil, prevents erosion and thrives in farmland that is otherwise unusable. Do you also construct with bamboo on your own property? Yes, I have a bamboo house, bamboo chairs and bamboo lamps. We’re planning to build a bamboo kitchen next. Are there any downsides with working with bamboo? C/Ns/G-14 July 10
Bamboo can be considered to be two different types of material - flat bamboo planks and round bamboo poles. Flat bamboo planks are made by binding together bamboo that has been split and planed. These planks work like regular timber planks such as teak, so no real issues there. Using bamboo poles is more complex, because every pole is different, so the designs need to accommodate that.
Ross Macfarlane was born in Stamford, England, but to very Scottish parents. He grew up in Derbyshire. In 1998 he earned a Masters Degree in strategic marketing at the University of Gloucestershire. Ross has been managing sales and marketing teams since the mid 1980s, holding jobs with Coca Cola, Kraft Foods, and Ogilvy & Mather. Currently, he serves as the head of marketing for Ibuku, the brand name for PT Bamboo Pure, a company which designs and constructs buildings and furniture across the world using sustainable materials such as bamboo.
The Balinese no longer use bamboo extensively for building. What do they use it for?
What are your hobbies? I love riding the back roads of Bali on my Kawasaki Enduro motorbike and playing golf. I’m a member at Nirwana Bali Golf Club. I’m also a big family man with a wife and four kids, all living in Bali, and I love to hang out with them.
That would have to be the Heart of School building at Green School. It is a 3-storey cathedral type structure employing a helix roof design and, at 2,800 square meters, is the largest standing bamboo building in the world today. The sheer scale of this building and the numbers of workers needed made this a very challenging project.
When did you first come to Indonesia and why?
Who are your customers?
I worked in Singapore for ten years, was financially successful but I felt my corporate advertising work was serving no purpose. I wanted to get out of the rat race and live somewhere that was beautiful, where the people were special and where I could do something that was positive for humanity.
We have a wide range of customers. The depleting rain forests and shrinking supply of recycled timber is generating a huge rise in interest in bamboo, encouraging both Indonesians and foreigners to our door.
How did you become interested in bamboo and its uses? I didn’t like bamboo at all. I had a clear vision of ugly designed, uncomfortable furniture that did not last. That all changed for me one day in March 2008 when I visited the Green School in Sibang Kaja. The way bamboo was used by the founder, John Hardy and his team, for the buildings and the furniture blew my mind...just stunningly beautiful. That day changed my life...I recommend everybody go for a visit. What year was your company Ibuku founded and who started the company? Ibuku was started in 2010 as an international brand to spread the message about bamboo to as wide an audience as possible. Bamboo enthusiasts who want to make very functional, livable buildings and furniture using an attractive eco friendly material founded the company. Why does bamboo make a suitable building material? This universal “grass” is strong and flexible. It grows locally, thus cutting down transport costs and environmental impact. Proper harvesting of bamboo allows instant re-growth, without troublesome replanting. Well-designed bamboo houses have a positive influence on people; the material somehow makes people happy and there is nothing quite like the sleep you get in a bamboo building. Why is building with bamboo environmentally friendly? There is no catch with bamboo housing. It’s good for the environment to grow it, good to harvest it and makes for
It’s still widely used here for the furniture and handicraft industry, but mostly for budget items with a short life expectancy. I’d like to see a wider range of products using better design and craftsmanship that will last for a generation. Is it safe to live in a bamboo house? Bamboo houses can withstand earthquakes better than cement houses. There are numerous cases, widely reported on the Internet, of bamboo structures that remain standing while concrete buildings fall, which makes sense when you consider the flexibility of bamboo. Bamboo has similar fire retardant properties to timber, typically several minutes, allowing plenty of time to escape. What was the most unusual bamboo structure you’ve seen?
C/Ns/G-7 April 10
Is it expensive to build a bamboo house? Of course it depends on the quality the client is looking for. However in my experience, bamboo housing with a design life of 30 years is cost competitive with equivalent cement or timber housing. And we extend warranties similar to those given for cement houses. What bamboo project are you currently involved in? We have a lot of projects going on right now, including a new school in Spain, an eco resort in India, a bamboo theatre in the Riau islands, and a stunning bamboo village that sits atop the Ayung River here at home. Which is the most enjoyable part of your job? I like talking to customers. The best bit of that is seeing their face when you make them something really special. Where can I find more information about constructing with bamboo? Try our website www.ibuku.com or come and see us in Sibang Kaja, between Ubud and Denpasar. We have a showroom and, yes, it’s made of bamboo!

Local News Greenpeace Says Photos Show Pam Oil Destruction in Indonesia Greenpeace on Thursday (29/7) went into attack mode again, saying it had photographic proof that palm oil firms linked to Indonesian agro-business giant Sinar Mas are bulldozing rainforests and destroying the habitat of endangered orangutans in Kalimantan. Sinar Mas, which lost top customers like Unilever and Nestle after an earlier Greenpeace allegation that it was destroying virgin forests, countered that it was working on government-awarded concessions that were already degraded before it began. After Greenpeace’s earlier report, Sinar Mas group’s palm oil unit, PT SMART, which manages producers PT Agro Lestari Mandiri and PT Bangun Nusa Mandiri, ordered an independent audit of their operations in Central and West Kalimantan, but announcement of the results has been postponed twice and is now scheduled for Aug. 10. Greenpeace said aerial photographs taken in July by its own photographers, as well as Reuters, showed that Agro Lestari was still clearing carbon-rich peat land forests in the Ketapang district of West Kalimantan. The group also published photographs allegedly showing Bangun Nusa clearing an area in Ketapang that had been identified by the United Nations Environment Program as a habitat for highly endangered orangutans. “What we found was that, despite their commitment, high levels of carbon destruction are still going on,” Greenpeace forest
campaigner Bustar Maitar said. “This is still happening, even while their auditor is writing the report,” he added. Fajar Reksoprodjo, a spokesman for SMART, told Reuters that because the concessions it operated were granted by the government, “presumably the issuance for that is because it’s not deemed by the government as high conservation value.” He also said that in the past, Greenpeace had misinterpreted areas in aerial photographs. “What was thought by laymen or non-expert eyes as peat turned out to be mineral soil. They have the same coloration,” he said. SMART acknowledged in a statement that the pictures were taken in the company’s concession area in Kapuas Hulu, West Kalimantan, but stressed that they should not be interpreted as a deforestation of a primary forest. “We are not responsible for the opening of primary forests, which are high conservation value areas and the main habitat for orangutans,” said Daud Dharsono, president director of Sinar Mas Agro Resources and Technology, a plantation unit. “Instead, our concession area consists of non-primary forest.” The company also stated it was conserving some areas of degraded forest that still had high conservation value. “The green areas shown in the photograph are proof that the company conserves these areas. [The areas are] not the remains of primary forest damaged by SMART’s activity,” Daud said. (July 30th 2010)
Rabies Still a Serious Issue in Bali. Culling not Effective Putu Valentino Rosiadi should have started third grade this month. But instead of buying a new school uniform and notebooks, his father mournfully cradles a black-and-white photo. The 8-year-old was next door when a stray dog jumped him in May, ripping its teeth into the boy’s right calf. He was stitched up at a local hospital and sent home. His family was told no cases of rabies had been reported in their area. Earlier this month, a high fever hit him. Valentino died two days later. “He was delirious. There was foam coming out of his mouth,” said the boy’s father, Komang Suda, 32. “Every time we tried to give him water, it was like he went into shock. He was shaking and very agitated.” A rabies epidemic has gripped Bali, an island of 3 million people and one of Asia’s top tourist destinations. Seventy-eight deaths have officially been logged in the past two years, including that of a 40-year-old woman a week ago, and many other deaths have likely gone unreported. The Indonesian government says it’s overwhelmed, with more than 30,000 dog bites reported in just the first half of this year across Bali. In a highly criticized move, officials killed about 200,000 dogs, instead of initially conducting mass vaccinations as recommended by the World Health Organization. “We have a serious problem with the anti-rabies vaccine for humans ... we are very short of treatment acrossa the island,” said Nyoman Sutedja, chief of Bali’s provincial health ministry, who expects all stocks to run out by next month. “We need help.” Hospitals across Bali have faced periodic shortages of free post-exposure vaccines since the outbreak began, leaving poor residents with few options. The shots remain available at pharmacies, but many Balinese cannot afford them. “The sad part is they get to the hospital and they get turned away because they don’t have any vaccines,” said Janice Girardi, an American who runs the nonprofit Bali Animal Welfare Association, which has vaccinated 45,000 dogs and recently received funding to conduct an island wide campaign. “Then they go home and die.” Several countries, including the United States and Australia, have issued travel warnings advising vacationers to consider getting pre-exposure rabies vaccinations before arriving and to avoid contact with dogs while in Bali. A handful of foreign tourists have reported dog bites, but none have been fatal. Shots given immediately after contact with saliva from a rabid animal can easily prevent death. But once symptoms appear, treatment is useless. Rabies kills some 55,000 people annually - mostly children - with nearly 60 percent of those deaths from dog bites in Asia, according to the WHO. The disease still exists in the U.S., but human deaths are extremely rare. Nearly all bites occur from wild animals, such as raccoons or bats. The rabies incubation period can last from a few weeks to months or even beyond a year. Flulike symptoms, such as headache, fatigue & fever, are the first signs of infection, followed by agitation, breathing problems, fear of water, paralysis and coma. Bali dogs, often covered in scaly mange, are a common sight
across the island. They roam beaches and hang out in packs, lounging around temples and markets. Many are kept as guard dogs, but as part of the island’s Hindu tradition, most are typically allowed to run and breed freely. They forage for food from restaurants and garbage heaps, and have largely coexisted peacefully with locals and tourists. The entire island remained free of rabies until the first case was reported in November 2008. Some believe rabid dogs from the neighboring island of Flores may have carried the virus with them into Bali aboard boats. Many Indonesian sailors refuse to leave port without their dogs, convinced canines are a source of good luck at sea. “Culturally, it is difficult to convince people that dogs can carry disease,” Sutedja said. “In the traditional Balinese faith people believe that dogs will take them to heaven.” Once rabies arrived, the virus spread quickly because a mass vaccination campaign was slow to start. Government officials opted to kill dogs in areas where human rabies cases occurred, using strychnine-filled meatballs and blow darts. A third of the islands estimated 600,000 dogs have been killed since the outbreak began, Sutedja said. But he admitted the problem has only worsened with more puppies being born along with a spike in dog bites. Only about a quarter of Bali’s dogs are kept as pets. “The government doesn’t want to do what everybody tells them from the WHO on down,” said Dr. Henry Wilde, a rabies expert at Chulalongkorn University in Thailand, which serves as a WHO collaborating center on the disease. “It’s a virtually hopeless situation.” Because dogs are territorial, vaccinating an entire village creates a natural barrier to keep rabid strays out, Wilde said. He added that in some cases, vaccinated dogs were being killed. About 70 percent of the dog population must be vaccinated to control the spread of the virus, but so far only about 20 percent of Bali’s dogs have been reached. Sutedja said the government has responded seriously to the threat, fearing dog attacks could damage its lucrative tourism industry, which so far has remained strong. The island, known for its sun, surf and shopping, has slowly rebounded from two suicide bombings in 2002 and 2005 that killed more than 220 people. Many hope next month’s release of the movie “Eat Pray Love,” filmed on location in Bali with Julia Roberts; will attract hordes of new visitors. But Valentino’s father is a world away. He sits quietly outside his tiny two-room brick house nestled among lush banana trees near the western border with Java, about 100km from the five-star beach resorts and exquisite restaurants bustling with tourists. Since the dog that attacked his son was killed and never tested for rabies, no one can say for sure whether his boy was infected with the deadly virus. Doctors maintain a rare autoimmune disease was to blame. Sutedja, however, said rabies is the suspected cause because dogs in the village had tested positive for the disease. “I’m definitely upset, but there’s not much I can do,” said the boy’s father, as a warm summer rain poured down. “My kid is dead and nothing can bring him back.” (August 4th 2010)
Floods Inundate Residential Areas in Bali Floods triggered by incessant heavy rains since Wednesday (28/7), have inundated residential areas in Badung District and Denpasar, Bali Province. The floodwaters reaching a height of up to one’s neck at Padang Sambian for instance, submerged at least seven houses. However, there was not report of casualty in the disaster. Floods were reported to have caused major flooding in Kuta, including the main Sunset road and Dewi Sri causing the closure of the road for one day and forcing business to close on Thursday (29/7) until the waters subsided. (July 30th 2010) Hope for Java’s Silvery Gibbon After Lost Communities Found The survival prospects of the silvery gibbon, also known as the Javan gibbon, are looking a lot rosier now following revelations that there are more than 1,000 of the primates in previously overlooked forests in Central Java. A previously unrecorded population of 896 gibbons was discovered near Mount Slamet in Central Java, while 176 were found at the nearby Dieng Plateau, Arif Setiawan, a wildlife researcher at Yogyakarta’s Gadjah Mada University, told the International Meeting of the Association for Tropical Biology and Conservation in Sanur, Bali. Additionally, the results - gathered between August 2009 and February 2010 - were from a study that was still ongoing, so the final figures could be even higher, Arif added. The silvery gibbon, which is endemic to Java, is found mainly in the forests of the Ujung Kulon, Gunung Halimun Salak and Gunung Gede Pangrango national parks in Banten and West Java. In 2005, the Indonesian Institute for Biodiversity Sciences recorded that Ujung Kulon had 560 gibbons, Gunung Gede Pangrango 447 and Gunung Halimun Salak 1,221. Conservative estimates put the total wild population of silvery gibbons at about 5,000. However, conservationists believe only 2,000 are genetically viable to propagate the species. The gibbon is threatened by poaching for the illegal pet trade and also by the continued destruction of its habitat. (July 22nd 2010) 10% of Tsunami Detecting Instruments Damaged Meteorology, Climatology and Geophysics (BMKG) spokesman Ing Ediansjah said on Thursday (29/7) that although ten percent of the instruments have been damaged, it did not hamper the earthquake and tsunami detection system. He explained that the earthquake and tsunami detecting instruments function collectively or in parallel so when one of them is out of order, the rests still function well. Ediansjah said the damage of the tsunami detection instruments could be monitored and repaired immediately. In the technical guidance on disaster early warning system, attended by representatives from local government and community, Ediansjah explained several ways of how to save oneself when earthquake and tsunami struck. (July 29th 2010) Giant Recall for Faulty Gas Canisters The continuing series of explosions involving gas canisters that have already claimed several lives in the capital this year has prompted the government to recall about nine million substandard three-kilogram gas canisters starting today, a minister said on Wednesday. “The cylinders that do not meet the Indonesian National Standards [SNI] will be recalled,” Agung Laksono, coordinating minister for people’s welfare, said at the Presidential Palace. The state has distributed the fuel in an effort to trim subsidies by replacing more expensive kerosene for cooking. “They will be pulled out of circulation when they are returned for refill,” Agung said of the gas canisters. The government will accompany the recall with a massive public information drive to teach safe use of the gas stoves, he said. He also said the campaign would teach users to be mindful of the gas regulators’ and hoses’ expiration dates. Agung said several state institutions, including oil and Gas Company PT. Pertamina and the ministries of energy; industry and home affairs would take part in the information drive. Adj. Sr. Comr. Eko Saputro of the Jakarta Police special crimes division said that 14 operations had been busted; all but two involving siphoning gas from the cheaper, subsidized three-kg canisters to fill larger containers, which are then sold for market price. Police have also swooped on five plants that produce substandard gas canisters, said Adj. Sr. Comr. Sandi Nugroho, head of the industry and trade unit of the detective’s office. (July 29th 2010)

Tourist Arrivals up 14 percent More than 3.38 million foreign tourists visited Indonesia in the first half of 2010, up 14 percent from the same period last year, the Central Statistics Agency (BPS) said. In June 2010 alone, more than 613.4 thousand foreign tourists visited the country, an 11.41 percent increase compared to the same period last year, BPS Chief Rusman Heriawan said here on Monday (2/8). Compared to May, the number of tourist arrivals in June slightly rose 2.23 percent, he said. The number of tourists visiting Bali via Ngurah Rai Airport in June 2010 reached 224.7 thousand, an increase of 12.07 percent compared to June 2009 or 12.68 percent to May 2010, he said. In the January-June 2010 period, the number of domestic and foreign-bound air passengers increased 20.99 percent to 20 million and 25.96% to 4.5 million respectively compared to the same period last year.(August 2nd 2010) Six Tourist Beaches in Bali Polluted: Expert A laboratory test on seawater from six tourist beaches in Indonesia’s Bali shows that they are polluted. Researcher Ketut Sundra from the Department of Biology at Udayana University in the provincial capital city of Denpasar said that the lab test showed the presence of pollutants that exceed the environmental quality standards at all six beaches. Sundra named the six beaches as Kuta, Legian, Nusa Dua, Jimbaran, Tanjung Benoa and Canggu, all popular tourist destinations. Speaking at a seminar at his university, Sundra said that the samples of seawater were taken during both dry and rainy seasons in 2008 and 2009, and 19 parameters were tested. “Kuta, Legian, Jimbaran and Nusa Dua can be categorized as lightly polluted while Tanjung Benoa and Canggu are moderately polluted,” he said. He said that eight pollutants had been found on the beaches, meaning that seawater failed to meet the standard necessary to be classified as clean. Sundara blamed the pollution on the ineffective waste management by hotels, restaurants and other hospitality, as well as tourist-related business in the area (July 30th 2010) Lombok Resort Still on Track: Emaar Dubai-based property developer Emaar Properties has again been forced to deny it has pulled out of a $600 million resort project on the island of Lombok, which has been idle for years. The property developer said it had “responded on time and with total commitment to the proposals of [joint developer] the Bali Tourism Development Corporation for the project.” The statement came in response to comments from the Indonesian government, published by the local media last week, which said that officials were to retender the project after Emaar pulled out. Emaar said it had provided recommendations on how it intended to proceed with the development, adding: “Emaar has strong financial fundamentals and will undertake all strategic projects across its key markets.” Emaar did not disclose the current status of the project. Last week, the head of the Indonesian Investment Coordinating Board, Gita Wirjawan, said potential investors from Abu Dhabi, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and India had expressed interest and could be ready to replace Emaar. This is not the first time that Emaar has denied pulling out of the project. In March, Emaar said it was still planning to proceed and was awaiting a response from an expression of interest it had submitted to the Bali tourism authority. The comment in March was made after the Indonesian ambassador to the United Arab Emirates, Mohammad Supriyadi, said that Emaar had abandoned the project. (July 26th 2010)
Expo Shows Illegal Pet Trade Rampant in Indonesia The most threatened tortoise in the world is being sold openly at a plant and animal exposition in the heart of Indonesia’s capital, highlighting concerns about the rampant and growing illegal pet trade. The country has become a major trading hub for endangered tortoises and freshwater turtles, including species from Africa , South America and Asia, said Chris Shepherd of TRAFFIC, a British-based international wildlife monitoring network. He said the government has failed to follow up on repeated promises to crackdown. Those found Friday at Jakarta’s annual flora and fauna expo - held from July 2 until Aug. 2 - included the world’s most threatened ploughshare tortoise and the critically endangered radiated tortoises, both from Madagascar and fetching around $150. Cages also were filled with rare Indian star tortoises, which are protected under the Convention on International Trade on Endangered Species, known as CITES, and the endangered pig-nose tortoise, from Indonesia’s easternmost province of Papua, both selling for $1,500. Vendors told The Associated Press other threatened tortoises and turtles not found on display could easily be obtained for a price. “Recent surveys, and this expo, have shown that the trade continues and, in fact, now involves more illegally imported species than ever,” said Shepherd. “Dealers know full well that it is illegal and are taking advantage of the enforcement agencies lack of action.” Indonesia, one of the most biologically diverse nations in the world, has for years sold everything from eagles and leopard cats to gibbons as pets in the capital, though often less openly. Shady transactions continue to take place in the back alleys of the popular Pramuka Market. (August 1st 2010) Some 69 percent of Java, Bali Mangrove Forests Damaged The People’s Coalition for Fishery Justice has appealed to the government on the need to preserve and improve mangrove forests. The mangrove preservation is necessary as the forests provide a unique environment for fishes, shrimp, and mollusks for spawning and rearing. According to data of the People`s Coalition for Fishery Justice (Kiara), damage of mangrove forests in the 1997-2008 period reached 68 percent. Kiara program coordinator Abdul Halim said in Jakarta Wednesday (28/7) that damage of the mangrove ecosystem was caused by industrial waste in coastal areas. Other causes include coastal land conversion for industrial purposes, commercial centers and luxury residential areas. The wastes caused damage to the mangrove ecosystem. The Ministry of Marine and Fishery Affairs set itself a target that by 2014, some 1,440 hectares of coastal areas would be preserved preventing them from environmental damage along national coastal areas.( July 28th 2010) . Red Faces as Porn Movie Accidentally Screened in Indonesian Parliament A pornographic movie was broadcast on the Indonesian parliament’s internal information service on Tuesday ((3/8), shocking journalists and lawmakers who rely on the screens for updates on political events. Images apparently taken from the internet filled the screens used by reporters, political staff and visitors for about 15 minutes before security guards managed to shut it off, reporters said. It was not clear how the images appeared on the screens, but House Speaker Marzuki Alie said whoever was responsible would be punished. “Whoever hacked the screens is insolent and will be reported to the authorities,” he warned. The incident was sure to embarrass President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, who recently backed calls for stricter controls on the internet following a national scandal over an online celebrity sex clip.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch
Do I have to be careful trying local food in Bali? This would have to be one of the most common questions (a close second to “Should I trust those transport guys?”) from newbies to the island. After all, a week of vomiting and diarrhoea can spell a bad trip (literally). I reckon that the most straight-forward answer is: “Use your brains, and don’t go in headfirst.” Hot food, for example, is less risky for our wimpy guts. Start off by sticking to fried and boiled stuff. If you find a place that’s popular with the locals (therefore has a high turnover of food), give a bit of cold food a go: nasi campur, lontong etc. But beware of dishes like tipat and lawar, and go easy on the chilli. Also, if the food prep looks a bit dodgy, best to give it a miss. Actually, it’s not just the food itself that may have a high bacteria count, but also the plate and cutlery you get with it (what you eat off is normally only barely washed, and sometimes in water from a ditch that has been reused over and over again). Salad or cut-up fruit, especially if it’s still wet, has most probably been washed in tap water – best to avoid these ones on your first trip here, even in the classier restaurants (unless they specifically state they wash their food in mineral water). Ice and ice-cream off the streets, though tempting, can be hazardous too, since they’ve been exposed to the sun for lengthy periods and can quickly sprout mushroom-like bacteria. Locals tell me that most ice is made from safe drinking standard ice cubes, and you can tell this generally from the size of the blocks. Most places have fridges these days, so you can always opt for a cold drink rather than one with ice in it. The irony of the whole thing is though, if I reflect on things, is that the sickest I ever got in Bali was from some putrid meat from a five-star restaurant supervised by an expat chef. So, go figure! Vaughan Hatch has immersed himself with Balinese culture, living with locals in Bali since 1997. He speaks fluent Indonesian and Balinese, and is unashamedly addicted to playing gamelan. A linguistic, archaeology and publishing graduate, he works for indOKiwi ‘linguistic and cultural solutions’ in Sanur.

STAY FOREVER YOUNG SCIENCE IN THE SPA “Forever young, I want to be forever young. Do you really want to live forever, forever? Forever young.” This song has become the theme song to millions of baby boomers and younger, who have been pursuing eternal youth with a variety of methods: diet, exercise, supplements, detox, Botox, hormones, modern machines and ultimately plastic surgery. All of these methods come under the heading anti-aging, a term that has become commonplace. You’ll find it on packaging for skin creams and supplements. In a spa, the term is used to describe certain facials or body treatments. Anti aging clinics encourage you to have facial treatments, injectables and now have hormone replacement therapy. During the last ten years the trend in spas has changed dramatically. The original spas of Europe dating back to Roman times were places of healing with water. As time went by the spas became more clinical with doctors, nurses and licensed technicians treating the patients. It wasn’t until the 1980s that spas began to change into a place of beauty and relaxation. People’s lives became more stressed and more toxic as the food we ate became more processed, health began to deteriorate. Heart attacks and cancer rates rose. People started to realize that just having a massage helped them to relax and eliminate the toxins. People realized that they needed to detoxify, learn about eating better, get more exercise and most important they wanted to stop the aging process. The simplest way to pursue anti aging is through natural wellness of eating a healthy diet and exercise, reducing stress, eliminating toxins and by protecting and moisturizing the skin using natural products. Sp Venus at Kubu Villas in Spa Se Seminyak is a wellness centre wi holistic therapies such as with ac acupuncture, trigger point m massage, organic Shankara fa facials, detox infrared sauna and de detox programs. The infrared sa sauna is different from a co conventional sauna in that the ro room doesn’t get hot, but it he heats the body, creating more sw sweat, which eliminates more to toxins. You can even read a bo during the forty minutes book an drink 2 glasses of water. and Infrared sauna Th The detox programs consist of 3 days or 7 during your stay at Kubu. The program includes special broths, fresh coconut juice, cleaning tablets and selfadministered green coffee colon cleansing. At the end of the week you’ll have radiant skin, more energy, feel lighter and healthier. ARC Anti Aging Beauty Clinic offers several face treatments to reduce wrinkles and sagging skin with injectables or their newest Cyrolift facial. Cyrotherapy is a type of cold shock therapy used on the skin and tissue for therapeutic improvements. Following an acid peel to remove dead skin, collagen is applied to areas of the neck and face then the instrument is guided over the area in upward sweeps at a temperature of -15 Celsius to penetrate the serum into the skin. It doesn’t actually feel that cold on the skin. Even after one treatment a visible difference can be seen with firmer skin. Six treatments are recommended at Cyrolift facial weekly intervals for best results. Kaimana Spa is taking a modern approach by being the first to offer magnetic resonance therapy to add on to any of their traditional treatments. Like water and air, magnetic resonance (MRT) is vital to life, which is normally obtained from the earth’s frequencies. However, the average person spends 90% of their time indoors within concrete and metal structures that insulate them from these natural magnetic fields. Secondly, we are bombarded by unhealthy and unnatural pulsed elec-
tromagnetic fields, known as electro smog from cell phones, computers, microwaves, televisions, ect, which have adverse effects on our health. Magnetic Resonance Stimulation MRS restores lost energy and cellular balance to a normal healthy vibration. As a result, the entire cell metabolism is stimulated, blood cells are regenerated, blood flows with more oxygen, the immune system becomes stronger, bone structure becomes denser and organs such as liver, kidneys and spleen are able to detoxify themselves. It also accelerates healing of wounds and injuries, decreases pain, reduces symptoms of arthritis, improves sleep and slows down aging. It is also very effective in combating jet-lag by resetting our internal body clock. All of this in only 8 – 16 relaxing minutes of lying on an electromagnetic mat! How do you know when you need to detox? If you have some of these symptoms: fatigue and low energy, impaired digestion, chronic constipation, frequent headaches, frequent colds, skin problems or food allergies; colon therapy is perhaps the most effective way to detox. This is a process of cleansing and flushing out the colon, or large intestine. The treatment is similar to an enema which can be done by colon therapy yourself, which only cleans the lower portion of the colon. Colonic irrigation, which is performed by a trained practitioner, is able to clean the entire five foot length from accumulated hardened faeces due to a poor diet, constipation or other gastrointestinal problems. Waste and toxins that remain inside for a long period of time causes putrefaction and fermentation, which can cause gas, bloating, headaches, fatigue and skin problems. Diets low in fibre and high in red meat and other fatty foods are a major cause of this problem. Today sterile and safe colon therapy machines are available using filtered water. The process pumps body temperature water into the colon while the therapist massages the stomach to help release impacted material from the walls of the colon. Then the pump is reversed and the water is vacuumed out into a closed waste system. You’re able to watch the elimination through a clear tube. Morbid, I know, but there’s no mess or odour. Usually a minimum of three to eight treatments is necessary for a thorough cleansing. Red meat eaters may need a few more treatments. Victus Life has a detox program, which includes the colon therapy plus doctor’s advice on diet for the most effective detoxification. Some benefits of this program are reduction of weight, removes parasites, intestinal muscles are stimulated to improve digestion functions, clears complexion, and reduces dependency on sugar, caffeine, nicotine, alcohol and drugs. H Human Growth Hormone is becoming a popular anti aging tr treatment in older adults. Reported effects on hGH deficient p patients include decreased body fat, increased muscle mass, in increased bone density, increased energy levels, improved sskin tone and texture, increased sexual function and improved im immune system. HGH is a protein-based polypedtide hormone, m man made by adding the hGH gene to a bacterium. It stimula lates growth, cell reproduction and regeneration in humans. F First a blood test must be taken to evaluate your cholesterol a and hGH levels to determine the present levels. From the age o of 30 hGH levels begin to decrease 24% per decade. By the a age of 60 the hGH levels are usually 80% lower than when yyou were 20. After the treatments the hGH level should be raised to 70% of what they were when you were 30. However, ra th this treatment must be continued to be effective. If the treatment is stopped the body will return to its former state. Hormone Replacement Therapy offers solutions to andropause in men and menopause in women. For men testosterone levels in most healthy men average 400 – 1200, however with age the levels can drop as low as 300. With HRT the levels can be boosted to 500 – 800, which is considered to be a healthy level for men over 40. Testosterone deficiency in older men is associated with increased heart attacks, stroke, cancer, diabetes, reduced sexual function and aging disorders.
For post menopause women, estrogen deficiency can result in drying skin, hair and nails, reduced metabolic rate, low libido, osteoporosis and aging. Victus Life offers 100 day programs to rebalance your hormones. First a saliva test is sent to Europe to assess your hormone profile with a physical exam for cardiovascular risks, metabolic panel and tumour markers. After your assessment the hormones are administered and monitored for the next 100 days. Diet and exercise programs are also advised. The HRT will improve your quality of life, live healthier and longer. Victus Life Longevity Institute is a partner of American Academic of Anti Aging, the largest organization on anti aging, providing education and training for doctors in Anti Aging Medicine. It also provides anti aging clinical care for the early detection and prevention for conditions associated with the aging process. They will host an international conference in October. Medical spas are now appearing in many countries. Bali doesn’t have one yet, but you can count on finding one here d ssoon. A medical spa is a hybrid of a medical clinic and a day sspa that operates under the supervision of a medical health ccare professional such as a doctor. Treatments are performed b by licensed professional practitioners. Many of the medical sspas offer non surgical treatments such as laser treatments, laser hair-removal, IPL (intense pulsed light), microdermabrasion, la photofacials aggressive chemical peels and injectables like p Botox. Some may have a wellness focus with detoxification B p programs, colon-therapy, nutritional counselling, a naturopathic doctor consultations, acupuncture and now antin a aging programs with human growth hormones. These spas may also offer relaxing treatments like massage and body treatments. However, there are some medical spas that also have a cosmetic surgeon on staff. These spas often have luxurious accommodation attached so that a person can come in for example to have a facelift and stay at the spa during the recovery period. During their stay they may wish to lounge by the pool and indulge in massage until they are ready to face the public. Although cosmetic surgery has been around for many years, these surgeons are now doing a booming business with so many people wanting to retain their youth and enhance their good looks. Bangkok has become the plastic surgery capital of Asia boasting hospitals with the luxury of a five start hotel. Thousands flock to Bangkok for plastic surgery where it is a fraction of the price compared to western prices. Most of the plastic surgeons have been trained in Europe or USA.
surgery room
But now you can get your cosmetic surgery done in Bali at Aesthetic & Laser Clinic. Dr.I.B. Suryahadi, who studied medicine in Indonesia, then went to Germany to get his degree in Cosmetic Surgery. His clinic in Seminyak has two surgery rooms outfitted with modern equipment from Germany in a sterile environment. He offers breast enlargement and reduction, face-lifts, lipo- suction and laser CO2 to name some of his services. He speaks excellent English and has a sunny personality. The prices are comparable to Bangkok. His clinic is in a hotel apartment building, so accommodation can be provided if needed.

The Animal Parks of Bali: Menageries of Wildlife It’s Not All About the Animals The orangutan attacked Pak Atmaja with no warning, chasing the veterinarian around the cage and viciously biting his hand, foot and right leg. Zoos are excellent habitats in which to view human behavior. While Pak Atmaja bled profusely, tourists standing outside the cage took video. Sitting in front of the entrance of the Bali Zoo, Pak Atmaja showed me two fingers on his left hand where the tips had been bitten off in the 2007 attack. A 2003 graduate of the department of veterinary medicine at Udayana University, Pak Atmaja has worked at zoo for seven years. Built on a former coffee and cacao plantation, the zoo is set in 5.5 hectares of natural landscape with exuberant shrubbery, lawns, waterfalls, tall trees, long grasses and thick jungle-like vegetation. Display enclosures are clean and, for Asia, spacious, re-creating in miniature the habitats of the respective animal being exhibited.
also given the chance to feed the carnivores. Suddenly I could hear the kids laughing as they rounded a corner. They had came across the perpetrator of the attack on Dr. Atmaja, a big shaggy 22-year-old male orangutan just two meters away. The kids were able to get alarmingly close to animals at the Bali Zoo, unlike European zoos where specimens are kept at a distance. Lethargic and deceptively harmless, the old overweight primate was calmly eating from an immense pile of fruits, carefully peeling tiny bananas and plopping it in his mouth. “Good thing Jacky was sick the day he bit me.” Pak Atmaja said. “If he was himself, he would have had the strength of six men.” I asked the animal doctor if his animals ever get sick. “The monkeys are the most prone to illness and stress. Like that one,” pointing to a Javan Lutung monkey jumping around the open-air primate playground. “He’s very prone to bacterial infections and diarrhea.” On the way out, I met Kadek who was doing a monthlong internship so he could practice his English. He asked if I would sign the zoo guest book. I read a few commentaries from other visitors: “I’m disappointed I couldn’t touch the orangutan,” and “Needs more babies!” and “Better than Melbourne zoo!” Practicalities Located in Singapadu in Gianyar District north of Batubulan on Jl.

Jacky, The Orangutan, Bali
Zoo
Although covering only 1.3% of the earth’s surface, Indonesia is amazingly rich in animal and plant life. Contained within its land and sea territory are 17% of the world’s bird species, 16% of the world’s amphibians and reptiles, 12% of the world’s mammals, and 10% of the world’s flora. Many of these tens of thousands of species are endemic. Not only does this sprawling island nation possess impressive quantity of fauna, but also immense variety. Spanning 4,800 kilometers across two gigantic bio-geographic zones, the Oriental and the Australian, and with landforms ranging from mangrove swamps to glaciers, Indonesia is no doubt the most diverse natural wildlife repository on earth. Visiting an Indonesia-based animal park is the best way to get acquainted with the country’s incredible biodiversity. The biggest and best zoo in the country is the Ragunan Zoo of Jakarta, with over 4,000 animals and birds. Other important zoological parks are found in Bandung, Yogyakarta and Surabaya.
Zoos have come a long way since a Congolese pygmy named Ota Benga was displayed in the monkey cage at the Bronx Zoo in 1906. Zoos can no longer be caricatures of how animals are in their natural habitats. Changing demographics and social trends have forced zoos to widen their appeal and treat their residents with more kindness. One of the changes is that “zoos” are now called “parks.” When I first visited the Bali Bird Park 10 years ago, it was a drive out into the countryside but now it’s just a 20 minute crawl north of Batubulan. We drove by the entrance on the left and my driver had to back up in heavy traffic, then turn down a steep road 700 meters to the parking lot. Although the parking areas were full of cars and big tour buses, the park itself easily absorb all the people and felt half empty. Most of the zoo’s visitors were enthusiastic Indonesian families, couples and groups obviously enjoying themselves, reflecting the new demographics of Indonesian tourism. Ten years ago the zoo was the exclusive domain of foreign tourists. As we started our walk through the lavishly landscaped grounds, ponds, and jungle grottoes in the cool of the morning when the birds were most active. What hit me first the burbling, warbling, drawling, mournful, harsh, hollow, guttural, plaintive, staccato, ecstatic cries of hundreds of bird species. Accustomed to being around humans, cockatoos and parrots were sitting in the branches of trees and peacocks and cranes were wandering about unfettered.
Babirusa, Bali Zoo
Bali is fortunate to have its own well-established zoological garden which is licensed by the Ministry of Forestry and government conservation institute (BKSDA). Maintained by a staff of over 100, receiving over 10,000 visitors a month, the Bali Zoo is home 350 animals including orangutan, gibbons, camels, porcupines, marsupials, the omnivore binturong, the muncak and spotted deer, the mouse-deer (kancil). I asked Pak Atmaja where he gets all his specimens. “We don’t buy our animals, but trade with other zoos in Indonesia and abroad. We got our Bengal tiger from the Pematang Siantar Zoo in northern Sumatra, our white tiger from the Surabaya Zoo, and our Komodo dragon was traded for deer from the Ragunan Zoo.” Pak Atmaja explained that the zoo is also a learning centre, promoting environmental awareness and wildlife conservation, educating children about endangered species. Plaques in front of each enclosure show a photo of the specimen, give precise zoological data in both Indonesian and English, plus a geographic distribution map. Deep in the environs, the long winding trail passes the Sumatran and Bengal tiger exhibit, the zoo’s heavyweights and crowd pleasers. To the delight of small kids, little animals such as marmots and rabbits are not neglected. All along the path a zoo employee encouraged us to hold an exotic bird, snake or lizard. Visitors are
Bali Starling, The Bali Bird Park
The white board in front of the new arrivals facility listed three Bali Starlings plus 22 other species who were in the breeding program. Next came cages holding amazingly colored macaws, followed by the dignified hornbills, mythological looking cassowaries with beady piercing eyes, then eagles, small owls, wading pelicans. So well-camouflaged are some of the species that they were difficult to see in their big cages. Smack in the middle is a world famous cultural icon, an authentic Torajan house from south Sulawesi. In other enclosures stood facsimiles of ancient Javanese temples. Papua, a gigantic aviary adjacent to the “Rainforest Juice Bar,” is full of exotic species from New Guinea. Except for the toucans, we had to keep our eyes peeled to spot birdlife though I nearly tripped over a stray drongo and Mambruk pigeon walking along the paths. I could hear the sharp cries of the Bird of Paradise – a member of the jay family - and the ghostly tremulous cries of other invisible birds from the canopy walk eye level with the tree-
tops. In the restaurant, during a birds of prey demonstration, I talked with the zoo’s veterinarian and assistant curator Dr. Maryke Andriani who has worked at the park for 13 years. She took up veterinary medicine because she always liked animals, especially cats. “They didn’t teach me anything about exotic bird species at university, only about chickens. I learnt everything here by myself - from zero.” Maryke’s job sometimes calls for quick thinking, like the time a big cassowary jumped its enclosure and when a mid-size komodo dragon climbed up a caretaker’s ladder and started roaming the park. She had to rescue tourists who were posing beside the freed animals for picture taking, not realizing how dangerous they were. I asked her how she can possibly care for the 1000 birds that comprise the park’s collection, a total of 250 species, plus bats and lizards. “We try to prevent sickness rather than cure sickness. You have to be careful. We don’t put an eagle in with a Bali Starling. Many of the more exotic specimens look good until they drop dead. That’s why we do frequent examinations of their feces and blood, make sure they have a good diet, enough water, clean cages with no poisonous plants around.” Are your breeding programs successful? “Indigenous breeds like the Bali Starling are easy to breed if we have enough parent stock. Non-indigenous species like macaws are difficult to breed even if you have a healthy male and female. But we’ve been lucky obtaining protected species from outside Indonesia. Our park has the only Hyacinth Macaw in all of Indonesia.” Practicalities Bali Bird Park, Jl. Serma Cok Ngurah Gambir, Singapadu, Batubulan, Gianyar, tel. 0361-299-352. Hours: 9 am to 5:30 pm daily.

The Greater Birds of Paradise is hand fed in the Papua aviary at 9:30 am. Bali’s Own Jurassic Park Just 15 meters distance, entering the adjacent Rimba Reptile Park means stepping back into the dawn of time. The atmosphere turned from open meandering parkland full of birdsong to a dark humid silent rainforest laced with a labyrinth of narrow paths. With more than 180 specimens, this is one of Southeast Asia’s rarest and most extensive collections of reptiles and amphibians. We first came upon a cave-like reptilarium where we got a glimpse at rare terrestrial species behind glass. Well over 100 snakes inhabit Indonesia, the majority non-poisonous, but these cavelike corridors concentrate on the more venomous varieties: king cobras, deadly pit vipers Rimba Reptile Park and the extremely toxic taipan whose bite has enough venom to kill 300 people. Props like canon, driftwood, stone temples and fountains, wooden wagon wheels, hangman’s noose and pocked voodoo statuary made it a short visit for the kids. The pride of the park is a 2.5 meter long Komodo dragon. By this time it was mid-day and the famous monitor lizard was active, but half-hidden. I had to jockey with an Italian woman to get a clear shot of the giant lizard with my camera. We were both satisfied when the star attraction lurched out from behind a concrete wall and crawled towards us. The stone pathways and stairs inevitably led to the park’s highest ground, a large open-air courtyard of pools and trees where iguanas and slithering pythons roamed about and basked in the branches. My girls posed for photographs in front of a tortoise, then the caretaker handed them a magnificent very obliging sailfinned lizard which they held just long enough to record the experience for posterity.

SUSTAINABLE BALI
This column celebrates the vision of three long-time Bali expats to help generate more options for sustainability on the island they love. Their deep commitment to the environment is reflected in their lifestyles, products and services. Little Tree Bali – A Green Building and Lifestyle Centre Steve Palmer moved here 35 years ago to enjoy the surf, and built a good life around the surf-wear businesses. Living in Kuta he has witnessed the worst of Bali’s uncontrolled and thoughtless development and wanted to give something back to Bali. He decided to create a store where many of the hard-to-find elements of ecologically sound construction and lifestyle could be found. It was a long slog just to get the building finished. What is
Steve’s knowledge about environmentally sustainable products is encyclopaedic. For the past two years has spent hours each night researching products on the internet, and
One of Little Tree’s most exciting new products is an ozone-friendly, CFC-free, energy saving gas for air conditioners Called Hycool HCR-22 he travels internationally to further his knowledge. Small companies like Little Tree Bali can be catalytic in needling larger stores into offering more green products and services. The website at www.littletreebali.com will soon feature the full range of products. Next time you’re on Sunset Road, drop by for a look. It’s right opposite Rip Curl.
Stylish, Sustainable, Beautiful Bamboo One corner of Little Tree Bali is dedicated to eye-catching examples of locally produced bamboo furniture, flooring and wall materials produced under the Ibuku brand. Once considered a low-end building material, bamboo has become something of a fashion statement. In the hands of talented designers, it can hold its own in any contemporary environment. Elora Hardy, who recently returned to Bali where she spent the first 14 years of her life, is now creative director of Ibuku. The company designs and builds cutting-edge furniture from several different species of bamboo. Probably Bali’s only design-based sustainable furniture, it makes sophisticated use of bamboo’s structure and shape. Thick bamboo is
Indonesiaorganic.com – Linking Sustainable Agriculture and Connectivity What BaliSpirit.com is to holistic Bali, Indonesiaorganic.com is to the burgeoning chemical-free Indonesian agriculture and food industry. Recent articles in the Jakarta Post cited surveys in Jakarta which indicated that many people are choosing healthier food and drinks, skipping the processed food and digging a little deeper into their pockets to eat organic fruits and vegetables. This is good news for the growing number of producers who are leaving the chemicals on the shelves and growing their vegetables with good old-fashioned compost. But how do they reach this lucrative new market?
now an airy, pleasant space punctuated with bamboo, glass and running water was once a bengkel and then a tropical fish farm. Steve recycled the original building, and finished it with the sustainable materials which the store would later sell. “The building was a steep learning curve,” he recalls. “It was very valuable in terms of finding out what people go through here when they try to make a ‘green’ building. It was hard to find the appropriate builders and materials, but we are nearly there.” Soon a full solar roof array will provide most of the building’s power; solar is becoming more affordable and Little Tree Bali will be selling some interesting units from China. The building has a waste water garden and a 70 cubic metre rainwater catchment tank under the parking lot which provides most of the water. Upstairs is a seminar room for public use, and soon there will be a comprehensive eco-library. In the back is a charming garden café serving Sari Organic’s wholesome fare. The natural bamboo shelves display a range of sustainable building products not usually available in Bali including safe paints and wood stains, clay wall finishes and natural wood finishes like tung oil, beeswax, linseed oil and pine oil. The store carries a good range of LED and high quality, dimmable, high- end fluorescent lights. There’s also a range of hand-loomed naturally dyed cotton upholstery fabric. Oh yes, and wooden bath tubs (bather not included). Some of his products are revolutionary for Bali. A fully certified Australian waterproofing product called Metacream uses a membrane technology that lets moisture escape from wood without letting water in. Another product from Sweden sands old wooden floors, capturing the toxic dust in a powerful vacuum system. Speaking of wood, the store offers a range of certified woods and plywoods which carry the Forestry Stewardship Council (FSC) stamp of approval. This international NGO accredits certification bodies which then use FSC standards to certify the forest management of timber companies, or provide a chain of custody for the timber coming from the certified forest and for reclaimed wood. One of Little Tree’s most exciting new products is an ozone-friendly, CFC-free, energy saving gas for air conditioners called Hycool HCR-22. The store can replace the gas in your current air conditioning unit or use it to charge a new unit. It is not only cheaper than the usual gas, but Steve tested it in two units in the store and found that it used 22% less energy. This type of gas is not ideal for large, industrial scale air conditioners but it’s perfect for homes and shops. What happens to the standard gas Steve’s staff vacuums out of your air conditioner? It’s compressed into a tank and sent to Jakarta where Holcim Indonesia injects it into a very high temperature cement furnace where it is harmlessly vapourized as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility Program.
The inspiration of Darsi Sawnick, Indonesiaorganic.com is a social entrepreneurial start-up that provides an effective platform for organic farmers, products, cooperatives, distribution, export, projects, retail, restaurants and more. It links Indonesian wholesale producers and retailers with domestic and international buyers in a single, easy-to-navigate format. Banner advertising and summary listings offer low-cost, effective promotional vehicles in Indonesia and the mini-website alternative was designed especially for smaller organizations without the financial resources and expertise to create and manage their own website. At this time, the site is the only national networking tool for organics. Its constantly updated content is relevant to educators, students, project managers, businesses, producers and consumers. Indonesaiorganic.com especially benefits small organic farmers and producers who need solutions to distribute their products by offering an affordable window to new local and potentially international markets. “Hopefully the site will help small producers form cooperatives and access markets,” Darsi points out. “Small farmers only get profile if someone writes about them. Their lack of skill and experience prevents them from networking. I know that many of the small organic producers in Bali have some support from a foreigner behind them, who hopefully may assist them to have a presence on this website.”
What BaliSpirit.com is to holistic Bali, Indonesiaorganic.com is to the burgeoning chemical-free Indonesian agriculture and food industry In the course of her research, Darsi found that it was difficult to identify the players. Many of the big producers don’t even have a website. Ironically, although big business may not be taking advantage of the internet, small producers stay in touch with each other with Facebook and hand phones. “There is so much potential here for producers, once they can raise the quality of their produce,” says Darsi. “For example, one international buyer was looking for a supplier for two 40 foot containers of certified ginger every two weeks. I’ve just talked to a woman in Nusa Dua who’s ordering organic rice from Jakarta because she wasn’t aware of Bali producers.” Although the site has only been up since February, it gets up to 500 page hits a day with an average of four minutes on the site -– a sign that users are taking advantage of the wealth of information to be found there. Check out www. indonesiaorganic.com. And if you happen to know a small organic producer, consider helping him or her move into a larger, more profitable marketplace by sponsoring a listing on the website that is linking the people who will change Indonesia.
sliced to reveal its intriguing honeycomb silhouette. Slender strips of bamboo are pinned tightly together with rattan, then polished in a beautiful mosaic as gleaming tabletops. No metal nails or screws are used in the construction. Bamboo is a member of the grass family, and once it is well established can grow up to a metre a day. This makes it the fastest-growing plant on earth and one of the most sustainable; it can be harvested annually. “It’s not logical to make things that aren’t sustainable,” states Elora. A well-managed clump of bamboo will never need replanting, and makes an excellent incomegenerating crop for subsistence level farmers living on marginal land. Ibuku sources some of its material from neighbouring farmers’ existing bamboo clumps, and looks forward to buying back petung bamboo from local families participating in a bamboo-planting project. Indonesia has about 120 species of bamboo, some of them quite valuable. Ibuku has also developed a variety of sliced, split and woven bamboo flooring and wall materials, many borrowing traditional Balinese techniques. Little Tree Bali offers a selection of flooring and two choices of pinned bamboo wall covering. I ask Steve about his philosophy. Why is he doing this? He mulls over his answer beside the tranquil water garden behind the store. “I guess it’s about trying to do the right thing,” he answered at last. “You can’t go far wrong using that as a standard.” If only we all would.
Dragons in the Bath, a collection of Ibu Kat’s stories, it is available at Ganesha Books in Ubud and at Biku in Seminyak, and at Periplus bookstores in Bali. It can be ordered nationally and internationally through www.dragonsinthebath.com <http://www.dragonsinthebath.com>
