C/Ns/G-21 Jan. 15
Question: I moved to Bali to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a professional writer. More and more, I spend all my free time writing fiction, editing, and submitting to various publishers. I haven’t yet finished the novel I started last year, but I’m close to 60% done, and in the last four months I’ve written six short stories, all of which I submitted to at least one magazine. The problem is I’ve received ten rejections so far and no acceptances. I get that this is totally normal, and that most writers weather a storm of rejections before Skippy the Magical Unicorn shows up. But the fact is: I get depressed and lose confidence in my abilities with every form letter I receive. Do you have any advice besides “keep writing”? That’s not my problem. I write almost compulsively and enjoy making up stories. The problem is finding the energy to keep trying to improve and submit my work when it feels so futile and pointless. I’ve been trying to get critiqued to figure out where I’m going wrong, but the online forums I’ve tried are frustrating, and -- because English is a foreign language here -- I’m not sure how successful I’m going to be at finding an English-speaking writers’ group. Help! Dr. ZZ: Sorry to disappoint you, but the only two possibilities I can imagine are: 1) Keep writing and sending out your work; 2) Give up, and do something else. Ten rejections for a writer is nothing; your goal ought to be to get 1,000 rejections by the end of the year. I know this may sound upsetting, but if you’re applying to the Powers That Curate and Publish Literature, these folks have countless submissions to wade through and can’t always fall in love with yours. Chances are, when you say that you “get that this is totally normal,” you were hoping it would be different for you. Take heart. It’s an unfair, subjective process. In many ways it’s like dating. Rejection hurts, but because it’s based on other people’s subjective decision-making, the only things you can control are: 1) your product, and 2) your circle of contacts, so that someone may eventually like what you have going. This, perversely, sets you up for even more rejection, but looking at it from the viewpoint that other people make their own subjective decisions, over which you have no control, is a far more manageable and less depressing outlook than holding yourself to blame. This may not be comforting, but it’s a line that every creative person must walk at some point. It doesn’t go away even after you meet with success because then you have the pressure of maintaining your position with each new project. So, whatever you think life will be like once you get to be a “professional writer,” the reality will probably be quite different. Whatever may come of it you’ll need friendships, other interests, and a genuine love of your work in order to sustain a rich and fulfilling life.

When someone gets published it may look from the outside like overnight success, but success is most often brought about through years of rejections, baby steps, and miniscule victories. Celebrate each of those minor victories, and give yourself credit for them, letting the rejections fall into the vast domain of Divine Mystery. Question: A couple of weeks ago, I started dating this guy. One evening we were with some friends, and he was drinking arak with one of them. He seemed sober, and I didn’t think anything of it, but he texted me later to apologize, which I thought was classy. That was our fourth time together and the first time we were intimate. The two of us had a date planned for tonight. Last night, I was home alone under the influence of a few Bintangs. I told him I wasn’t really up for chatting, but I was looking forward to tonight. Half an hour later, he called again and dumped me.
C/Ns/G-16 April 14
I think it was hypocritical of him. Not to give me the courtesy of a sober (and preferably in-person) conversation was tacky and immature. Apparently, he thinks we weren’t serious enough for that to matter. Am I being unreasonable? Dr. ZZ: I’m sorry this happened and you’re hurt. Obviously, a text-message breakup after a serious, long-term, possibly even living-together relationship is in poor form. In the early stages of dating, however, only a couple of weeks in, I can possibly go either way regarding e- or phonebreakups. Particularly after you’ve been intimate with someone, rejection hurts. We tell ourselves the lie that it would hurt less if the other person had just handled it differently. You absolutely did deserve a real conversation while both of you were sober, and I understand why you’re angry. But if he had sat you down on a velvet pillow and explained it to you gently while looking deeply into your eyes, you would still feel just as dumped as you do right now. Once the sting of rejection subsides a bit, and you’ve had a chance to move on, you will be able to see what happened as a blessing. This guy’s break up in a crappy way demonstrates that he would have been a crappy partner in the long run.
C/Ns/G-9 July 14
Wanting him to apologize for how he did things is understandable, but engaging with him further to get the apology isn’t going to bring back the good times. It’s just going to keep you entangled with a person who treated you poorly. Let yourself feel the hurt, and get angry. It lessens the temptation to pine. It wasn’t your fault and you deserved better. Next!

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE FEBRUARY 04 - FEBRUARY 18, 2015
This fortnight is flavoured by the Full Moon in Leo conjunct Jupiter and trined to Uranus and the South Node of the Moon in Aries. This makes our Aquarian Sun trined to the North Node in Libra and if you remember, this cycle is all about those karmic nodes and events that feel somewhat destined or fated. Take special note of these events taking place in your life now as they are of paramount importance when it comes to creating your future. Uranus stays in close proximity to Pluto in its square until May, when they finally move out of close orb; at least for awhile and although this is the final of our seven exact squares they move to within a degree of each again over the next year. These are trying times for many people with the life themes seemingly large. It can feel overwhelming and even hopeless at times for many people. Even those who are somewhat awake or aware consciously can feel the pressure as world events intensify. With the Uranian highlights during this very Aquarius time we can unite forces and support the children of the World and those less able to speak up for themselves. It’s a challenging time to discern the facts from the fiction and drama and yet by employing our intuitive forces we are able to find the Truth amidst the distortion. Mercury moves direct again on the 11th and will return to its retrograde degree by early March and the next Full Moon.
C/NS/U-11 June 14
FULL MOON 14 Leo 48 February 4, 2015 7:10 a.m.
The Full Moon joins Jupiter in your romance sector and the South Node and Uranus in your sign and first house. Although there is a strong focus on your personal identity and self-expression this may give way a little to the needs of others during this Full Moon. It’s a balancing act and the good news is that Mercury moves out of its retrograde phase and allows your friendships to open up once more through communication. You may still be wondering where your place is and are open to input from others as to which environment may suit you best or is most ideally suited to this next chapter of your life.
This Nodal placement is in your sign and polar opposite sign of Aries and so you are particularly targeted when it comes to prior lifetime associations and present partnerships. These connections bring possible romance or children into your life along with a heightened sense of friendship and community this fortnight. Venus your ruler is exalted in the sign of Pisces and currently sits in the area of health and service in your chart. It could well be, that through what you do for a living, new opportunities and meetings of the romantic kind take place. You are also in a phase where you feel more attractive and poetically inclined.
Mercury moving forward in your career sector with the Sun nearby brings a more creative slant to your future plans and aspirations. The home area is highlighted during this Full Moon and you are feeling lucky when it comes to a move or renovation plans. With Uranus and the Node in the 12th house of retreat harmoniously working with this Full Moon, you may find the home you’ve been looking for or enter into a creative process of manifesting it. Some of you may get news of a pregnancy or an addition to the family. Work partnerships benefit you this fortnight and support this next level of life’s unfolding.
Mercury is about to go direct in the area of home and so much discussion has been around the concept of home and where you feel nurtured. There is more yet to come although by now you’ve got the gist of what new ideas you can implement to make it more in alignment with who you are and what your life represents to the outside world. In a contrary way they do go together, for the deeper you allow yourself to be nurtured the more you will be able to give to the World through your vocation. There are spiritual connections to be made through the destiny points and your work is thoroughly inspired at this time.
Mercury your ruler goes direct this fortnight and movement from neutral takes place. When the pause button goes on you are challenged to stay with the current agenda rather than race off into somewhere other than here. There’s a lot to integrate during this very auspicious time on planet earth and you need these little breaks to digest everything. The Sun and Mercury in your 9th house of travel bring decisions by the end of the fortnight with regard to any plans you’ve had in the works. There is so much networking to be done through local and global connections as well as creating a new marketing identity for you. This wonderfully illuminating Full Moon together with Jupiter brightens up your house of material acquisitions and personal values. Meanwhile the Sun and Mercury are opposite in the house of endings and shared resources and you have probably used this review period to think about your transformation and possibly grieving some of your past losses. There is a strong connection between these themes and those of your career and your home base. Some of you will be creating a new home with new relationship partners and many will have work related changes bringing subsequent endings and finalisation. It feels like much sorting to be done but working in your favour.

Jupiter your ruler joins the Full Moon in your very own 9th house. That has to be some kind of good oracle for you this fortnight. As fortune shines down upon you, the desire to travel, to grow, to expand your life and wisdom is paramount. With the Sun and Mercury prompting your humanitarian leanings in the communication realms you are able to piece together past memories through the children in your life and open new doorways to current community projects. Friendships that develop now will be long lasting and will prove to bring irrevocable changes to your life. You could well be a part of the plan to bring peace. There is no doubt that there are some challenging relationships and individuals in your life. With the communication review in your house of values you may find yourself leaning towards a more understanding approach when it comes to differences of opinion. As for other things of a more emotional nature, you may wish to hold your ground and claim your viewpoint as specifically your own. Changes in the home reflect your status and so do partnerships. So much is going on in your World at the moment that it may be better to take some time this fortnight to delve deeply within yourself for transformational purposes.
With the Full Moon in your sign and 1st house and the Sun in your relationship arena you are weighing-up the advantages of being alone verses being partnered. The Mercury review for you has also been around this topic of marriage and togetherness. No doubt you will have come to some decisions by the time Mercury goes direct this fortnight. You are also looking at the possibly of higher education/ travel and also working at the mundane level of communication. There could be some interesting inspiration developing as you continue to expand upon your identity and this new image of yourself. These changes take time to develop and manifest.
With the Sun in your 1st house this is a fine time to do a remodel of your physical presentation and as Mercury goes direct here as well you about ready to proclaim your new manifesto. The fortnight started with the Full Moon joined to Jupiter in your relationship house and this bodes well for all of your partnerships and will include those of a foreign nature and any connections to education you may have. Inspirational new ideas are possible at any moment, along with a radical shift in perception. There may not be warning signs that this is about to take place and you will only know after it has occurred.
As you complete the revision on any work and health issues this fortnight you find that you are ready to claim some of the new ideals as your own and release past mistakes and old relationships. With Jupiter and the Full Moon starting the fortnight in your house of retreat and connection to the Divine you are inspired to bring into manifestation more of your unfulfilled dreams. There’s no point getting bogged down in your work to the point that you lose yourself and your precious dreams. You find that there are people only too willing to help and support you now in a monetary way, if you allow them.
The Full Moon and Jupiter are at play in your work sector and bring good news on any health issues. Meanwhile, the Mercury review has been in your 12th house of hidden matters and you’re about to have clarity on those parts of the puzzle that have been alluding to a change of plans, this in turn will bring more endings and a new set of values. Old friends and lovers are inadvertently helping you to unravel sexual tensions or inhibitions or more directly what it is that you want in your life now, with regard to relationship. You are on the verge of a new beginning and there is no reason to doubt this.

Check Out of Your Hotel and Into The Canggu Club of wearily waiting all afternoon at a warung with a load of luggage and for transport to arrive. Check out of your hotel and into Canggu Club for the rest of the day and finish your island holiday in comfort and style. Bali Res Centre and Canggu Club are offering the perfect solution to late night flights, last day long faces and an opportunity to make the most of your final afternoon in paradise!
We all love to get away for holidays and enjoy the luxury of buffet brekkies and lazy days at the hotel, but it all gets a bit depressing when it’s time to checkout and your last day looms before you. Late flights home don’t always coincide with hotel checkout times and we are often left with the conundrum of what to do with all that luggage and where to spend those 8 hours between leaving the hotel and lobbing up at the airport. Don’t spoil the end of your holiday with a boring day
Little Locale - Big Burgers Blink and you may quite likely miss it but this little joint is well worth the effort to first locate, then find a park, so keep your eyes open as you cruise through Umalas. Habitual - Quench and Feed is a quaint little eatery in Bali that is well worth a return visit. Located along Jalan Umalas 1, it is not overly easy to get to (better if you are on a scooter) nor secure a parking space nearby but diners may agree, a short return stroll from vehicle to venue may be necessary once you see the size of your order! Known for its burgers, that’s not all there is on the menu and Habitual is open from 9am until 6pm, Tuesday to Sunday for Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch and coffee with home made sweet treats the likes of bittersweet brownies and Tollhouse cookies. Owner and chef, Sandy made his dream of creating the comfort food he enjoyed while growing up in New York City into a reality when he opened concept cafe Habitual about two years ago. “It’s about the kind of food that makes me happy and getting out of bed worthwhile.” Though there are all day breakfasts of Benedict, brioche,
This terrific package is available to anyone, regardless of where you are staying in Bali. Upon arrival at Canggu Club, reception staff will tag and store your luggage securely so you and your family can relax and take full advantage of the multitude of options available for entertainment, exercise, pampering and play! Keep the kids cool and amused with a few hours of energetic fun on the slides at Splash Water Park or drop the younger ones of to Cubby House Kids Club. Splash is safe, supervised by fully trained life guards and the perfect place to keep your kids entertained and out of your hair as well as an outlet for expending all that excess energy, not necessarily needed for the night flight home.
If you live, work, have a business or just have some exciting news about this area then we want to hear from you! Canggu News submissions for future editions are welcome to be emailed to: canggueditor@yahoo.com If you are submitting information about a future event, please be sure to provide accurate details regarding time and place and include pictures where relevant.
With younger members of the family engaged for the afternoon, take advantage of the air conditioned fitness centre and make a start on working off some of those holiday indulgences with their full range of cardio, fitness machines and free weights. If that sounds too much like hard work, simply continue to indulge yourself with a massage, facial or beauty treatment at Body Temple Spa! Refuel at the Verandah Cafe, Splash Poolside or Sports Bar and then refresh before your flight home with a steam, sauna and shower in the male and female change rooms after your day of fun in the sun. There is free WiFi throughout Canggu Club so you can keep up to date with flight times, coordinate pick-ups on arrival at home and send those last minute holiday pics. In order to ensure comfort and luxury all the way until you are seated on the plane, Bali Res Centre can also coordinate transfers via private car from Canggu Club to the airport, VIP fast track departure service and JAS lounge access including free flow alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, hot and cold refreshments and WiFi before you fly. Don’t let your holiday in paradise end on a low note. For more information on this fantastic solution to last day travel logistics, contact Bali Res Centre today to organise this departure day package and check in to Canggu Club. info@balirescentre.com
baked eggs and a rather tempting house brunch, burgers are what we have arrived for and the menu offers a selection of eight - buns or no buns! The Fancy Pants burger promises exquisite flavours, consisting of a beef patty, elegantly tarted up with parmesan tuile, roasted toms and blue cheese spread. Non meat lovers are not forgotten with the Walnut Burger of roasted pumpkin, shredded carrot, egg, cumin tomato and wild rocket, however as my lunch companion and I are quite possibly the worst vegetarians in the world, we are ogling the Kaffir Lime Chicken Burger and Chili Cheese Burger. No disappointment to the palate here! Burgers are delivered on a wooden chopping board, stabbed with a steak knife for stability and accompanied by a bowl of hand cut, seasoned fries and spicy mayo on the side. Diet food? No. Yum? Yes! Juices are fresh and combinations are quenching. After the spicy mayo and a taste of the chili burger, the Citrus Mint Cooler is the right remedy and is a bit like air con for my mouth. Habitual has rustic charm with a cool, dark interior, red brick, wooden floors and tables and a photo wall depicting
childhood memories, portraits and pictures of someone’s car! It’s an interesting view, a likely conversation starter and enough to keep the thought of checking Facebook and phones at bay for the duration of the meal. With indoor and outdoor seating for about 25 people, lunches are busy and you may have to stand in line for a spare table but the wait will be worth it. Habitual - Quench and Feed. New York style food and burgers with bite! Jalan Umalas 1 No. 12B. T. +36 1 918 1801
cafe area, or book a party room for a more private gathering. Exclusive use of party rooms adjacent to Strike and Bounce are available for 45 minute time slots and are complimentary with the minimum Rp1,000,000++ purchase of a catering package. These rooms are perfect for groups of up to 24 children and ideal to gather your gaggle of kids together for tasty treats, present time and cake! Speaking of cakes, no need to call the patisserie in a panic or get your bake on, cakes can be provided at minimum cost and 72 hours advance notice. Mums and dads, add your own touch and decorate your party room with personalised balloons and banners for the guest of honour.
Creating Cool Kids’ Parties at Canggu Club Birthday parties are loads of fun but there are times when coming up with exciting new ideas for our little one’s big day can be a bit of a stretch. Many of us simply don’t have the time or resources to cater for fifteen or twenty kids in our back yard, let alone find activities to entertain them for three hours without bringing in hefty reinforcements. Cue Canggu Club and their party packages catering especially for kids. With venues like Bounce Trampoline Centre, Strike 10 Pin Bowling and Splash Water Park, there are ample options for activity fueled parties where the hard work and entertainment is already done. Plan a bowling party or Bounce bonanza where guests are actively
entertained for an hour or two (you decide on the time) in a supervised, all weather environment. Catering is a cinch with the choice of three different party package menus. Choose from the Indonesian, International or Healthy menus priced at just Rp100,000 ++ per head, each one offering five different menu items including dessert, sauces, condiments and cutlery. These suggested menus are by no means exhaustive and you can also include additional items or create a custom party fare from the menu list provided to cater for more individual palates and preferences. Party guests can choose to enjoy their snacks closer to the bouncing and bowling action in the
Should you have a larger group with a taste for aquatic outdoor fun, Splash Water Park has covered, open air venues to cater for up to 200 guests and party goers can come and go on the slides as they please. Take the tension out of organising your child’s next birthday bash and call party hostess extraordinaire, Bianca at Canggu Club. Just tell her what you are after and she will coordinate the rest! No need for hours of wrapping pass the parcels, racking your brain for games to entertain or redecorating your house to resemble a pirate party. Your precious ones will be begging you for a birthday bash where their guests can bounce, bowl or barrel down the slides for the afternoon while you put your feet up and enjoy the spectacle! Make the call and let Bianca and the team plan your next party...Piece of cake! For further information email: kidsparties@cangguclub.com
4th Year of Interns at AquaMarine AquaMarine’s 11 month PADI Divemaster Internship Programme for Indonesian Citizens 2015 Programme is now well underway.
Gracia was enthusiastic about the next challenge. “The instructors really want you to develop your skills and are quick to answer any of our questions!”
This year there are three successful applicants: Gracia, 30 years young and hailing from Manado in North Sulawesi where she worked as a travel agent. She had already logged 60 dives (over three years) prior to joining the Internship. Gracia wants to discover the other side of the dive industry, to see the underwater world for herself and to become a certified PADI Divemaster. Rizal is 33 year old from Jakarta. He started work for a north Bali dive company where he logged 30 dives in two months, but has opted to take things more seriously and to focus on professional training by joining the AMD-B Internship. The third intern is Erick. At 21 years of age from Kendari in Sulawesi, he had just four previously logged dives and is taking a gap year from his studies in Marine Science. “Well, it’s a rare chance to be a diver master here in paradise island ‘Bali’ with full free accommodation, an awesome instructor, and everything else, Thanks AquaMarine! Despite the differences in their ages and backgrounds,
The AOWDC consists of two Core (required) Dives: Deep and Navigation, and three Elective Dives chosen from PADI’s list. However at Aquamarine Dive - Bali, to ensure all round training for their interns, Gracia, Rizal and Erick will undertake all available Elective Dives throughout the month of February. the three have bonded well and are enjoying the common ground an internship such as this one provides. Rizal was particularly excited about the opportunity, “It’s awesome, a chance of a lifetime in Bali. Heaven is down here!”
The three interns will also take the PADI Enriched Air course (aka Nitrox) because of the added benefits to diving. A diver using Nitrox has extended ‘no decompression limits’, and generally feels less sleepy after diving.
Their previous dive facilitated a speedy progression through the PADI Open Water Diver course, where most students tend to find the ‘mask skills’ the most challenging. All three interns say they actually found the Underwater Compass Navigation exercises to be the trickiest due to strong currents at the dive sites.
AquaMarine Diving - Bali invites you to come and meet them during one of the many trips they organise for divers and snorkelers.
Sneak a Peek Into Edith’s Closet Shopping has always been a hobby of mine and I don’t mean the grocery kind.......In fact if you were to ask my husband, he would probably suggest it to be more my ‘career’. This being the case, I am quite partial to poring over the odd rack of garments from time to time, looking for that fancy ‘frock’ or design with a difference. Alas, on an island where imitation is clearly perceived as the best form of flattery, I sometimes find it difficult to locate those more unique items and boutique after boutique offering the ‘same same but different’ style can become a bit of a yawn. When I lived in Australia I loved to trawl through vintage clothing stores and the odd op shop and frequently discovered a treasure trove of trinkets and designer delights. Whilst I have stumbled on a couple of these gems during my time here on the island, few have piqued my curiosity like Edith’s Closet on Jalan Pantai Berawa. A quirky little collective of bric-a-brac, bed covers, colourful cottons and what nots, this shop is worthy of more than

Cool coveralls for over your cozzie are available in the the prettiest pastel cottons at a fraction of the price of something similar in Seminyak.

impress. I resisted the urge to relieve them of one very cool black leather biker’s jacket and a retro gold necklet that I am hoping will still be there on my next visit. You may not see the same price tags as those hanging from the mass produced garments at the markets, it will not set off the alarm bells in your wallet and you won’t find these one off pieces either. Stock is sourced locally, from India and Australia and the owner has an eye for vintage style. Everything from enamel cookware, leather bound notebooks to broderie anglaise tunics and pretty patterned tablecloths catch my eye. It’s one of those places where each visit will bring a bounty of delightful discoveries along with a little difficulty in leaving empty handed! Open Monday to Friday from 10am ‘til 5pm and until 3pm on Saturdays, there is ample parking for bikes (and a car) out front, the staff are friendly and the store is chock full of character. Drop in and see them to add that unique touch to your wardrobe or colour your couch with their cushions. Edith’s Closet is the perfect place to satisfy your inner opshopper. Consider it in-service for my ‘career’ in purchasing! Edith’s Closet - Jalan Pantai Berawa

SOCIAL MEDIA BYTES BY : LIZ AFAIK NC/Ns/G - 27 July 11
Social media can be a powerful force if harnessed for social or environmental activism. Social media also has the benefit that it can rally public opinion very quickly, even overnight, far faster than conventional petitions or other means. A racist person can lose their job in a day, national legislation can be altered or retracted and companies and governments can be forced to change their position on an issue. Here are some examples of the effectiveness of social media that resulted in public outcry and effective action. AMY CHEONG AND ‘WEDDING-GATE’ Amy Cheong was the Membership Assistant Director of the National Trades Union Congress (NTUC) in Singapore. Amy Cheong put a public posting on her personal FaceBook page, late on Sunday night, complaining about the noise from a Malay wedding held at a void (party) deck near her home. She used profanities, related Malay weddings to high divorce rates and stated that void weddings should be banned. By 3 am there was a page on Facebook called “Fire Amy Cheong.” By 7 am, Amy’s post had gone viral on Facebook, Twitter and other social media sites. Amy responded by telling people that her Facebook comments were private and they had no right to read them. The “Fire Amy Cheong” Facebook page had 1,725 likes before noon (and would go on to accumulate tens of thousands of likes). A Facebook page called “Stop Racism in Singapore’ started a petition on its page calling for her dismissal. By 10 am, NTUC Secretary General Lim Swee Say made a public apology on social media. By 10.20 am, a member of the public had filed charges against Ms Cheong. (In many countries, if you put a comment onto social media, you have, legally speaking, “published” that remark and can be sued for defamation. Singapore goes even further, charging offenders for race crimes by using public hate speech.) By 12.30 pm, NTUC had issued a formal statement about Cheong’s dismissal. By mid afternoon, advertisements for her position appeared on Jobstreet. By 5.30 pm, Amy issued a full statement of apology, but it was far too late to save her job or her reputation.

media, bloggers and politicians, including Indonesia’s then-President SBY. The High Court found Prita guilty of defaming Omni Hospital, gave her a fine of 204 million rupiah (USD $21,680) in damages and a jail sentence of 6 months. A group of bloggers started the “Help Prita” movement across the country, asking people to donate coins. A Coins for Justice website was set up. People from all backgrounds contributed. Beggars and school children were shown on news media donating coins. A benefit concert was held in Jakarta. Over USD$90,000 was collected. Prita made a public statement that any money beyond the fine amount would be donated to charity. The Omni Hospital proposed dropping their civil suit if Prita agreed to a settlement. She refused. The civil suit was still dropped. Former President Megawati became personally involved in the case and Prita was released from jail. The High Court reversed its ruling and Prita was acquitted of defamation charges. The new Cyber Law, under which Prita was charged, is being reviewed. GREENPEACE’S ‘ARCTIC READY’ CAMPAIGN In 2012, Greenpeace developed a social media campaign, together with the activist group, Yes Lab, targeting Shell Oil’s plans to begin drilling in the Arctic. Shell had previously won a legal injunction preventing Greenpeace activists from coming within a kilometer of any Shell assets worldwide, so Greenpeace had to devise a virtual campaign to protest against Shell’s actions.

Greenpeace spent $10,000 to set up a website mimicking the real Shell’s website about Arctic drilling. Visitors to the fake Shell website could use an ad generator to make up their own ad; over 10,000 ads were created and shared on social media. Greenpeace chose one of these ads to place on a billboard on a highway in Houston, Texas, that led to Shell’s American headquarters. Greenpeace also set up a Twitter account, named @ Shellisready, pretending to be an incompetent social media team from Shell that was ineffectively trying to handle negative publicity from Shell’s ads. Many people who saw the website and Twitter feeds assumed that both were genuine Shell sites and broadcast both the ads and the associated tweets to show corporate social media gone horribly wrong.
PRITA MULYASARI & OMNI HOSPITAL Prita Mulyasari, a bank employee and mother of two, was admitted to the Omni International Hospital in Jakarta, running a high fever. At Omni, Prita was misdiagnosed with dengue fever, despite undergoing a battery of tests. She moved to another hospital and was correctly diagnosed with mumps. Prita sent an email to 20 friends informing them of her poor treatment at Omni and the excessive tests, which she attributed to a desire to make money from medical insurance policies. Without her knowledge, one of her emails was posted on an open bulletin board. The Omni Hospital tracked the email back to her and filed a defamation complaint under Indonesia’s new and untested, Information and Electronic Transaction Law. Prita, still breastfeeding, was sent to jail and charged by prosecutors with defamation, which can result in a jail term up to 6 years. Omni Hospital also filed a civil suit. The story was picked up by Indonesian bloggers and a Facebook support page was set up, attracting tens of thousands of members. There was a huge outcry from
The links went viral, with over 2 million page views of the fake Shell website. Twitter refused to close the fake Twitter account based on complaints from Shell, and defended their decision, saying that parody was allowed as freedom of speech. When one of Shell’s drilling rigs in the Arctic went adrift, the news caused the Arctic Ready campaign to go viral for a second time. Greenpeace has collected 900,000 signatures to a petition calling for a block on Arctic drilling and has reached many new audiences, with many new supporters and donors who are joining because of the campaign and the highlighting of the issue of Arctic oil drilling. Shell recently announced they are halting Arctic drilling, due to logistical and environmental issues, but one has to wonder how much effect the Greenpeace campaign had on this decision.

Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, b.1924, died 22 January aged 91, became King in 2005 in succession to his half brother King Fahd (19822005). King Abdullah was the tenth son of Ibn Saud (1876-1953), the founder of Saudi Arabia in 1932. He is succeeded as King by his 80-year old half brother Salman bin Abdulaziz al Saud (b.1935), who is the 25th son of Ibn Saud and a full brother of King Fahd (1982-2005). King Saud had 42 sons by various wives and some of his grandsons, now in their 60s, are older than his youngest sons. King Abdullah became de-facto Regent of the Kingdom in 1995 when King Fahd, also a half-brother, suffered a stroke. He was a popular king, a keen horseman and falconer, who restored a sense of austerity and respect for the dynasty. A conservative, he permitted limited reform, granting women the right to vote and be educated, building a new women’s university. Driving, however, was a step too far and women were forbidden to drive. He was a strong supporter of the alliance with the US and managed to maintain the relationship following the September 11 attacks on the US. He has actively opposed the spread of Iranian influence in the Middle East and their possession of nuclear weapons. He saw Saudi Arabia as the natural leader in the Middle East and was strongly against the democratization of the Arab Spring movement in 2011, invading neighbouring Bahrain following Shia unrest there and financially supporting the military take over in Egypt from the Moslem Brotherhood. Saudi Arabia has recently become massively involved in funding opposition to ISIS and the Caliphate movement in Syria and Iraq. In a sign of both change and continuity during unsettled times, the new King Salman has already named as his successor his nephew Mohamed bin Nayef (aged 55) as Crown Prince, the first time a grandson of Ibn Saud has been so named.
Lotte Hass: Austrian diving star, b.1928, died 14 January, she was the second wife of Austrian naturalist and diving pioneer Hans Hass (d. 2013). Along with Jacques Cousteau, Hans and particularly Lotte Hass with her blond photogenic looks, did more than anyone to popularise diving in the red Sea and other exotic locations on film and TV. Susanto Pudjomartono: senior Indonesian editor, journalist and diplomat, b. 1943 died 14 January, served as chief editor of The Jakarta Post from 1991 until 2003 before becoming Indonesia’s Ambassador to Russia from 2003 to 2008. He was a co-founder of Indonesia’s Editors’ Club.

Susanto Pudjomartono graduated from Gadjah Mada University 1966, Yogyakarta, beginning his career as a journalist with Tempo magazine before joining the Jakarta Post in 1983. During his tenure as Chief Editor he was able to expand the newspaper’s reach significantly beyond the expat readership due to his ability to follow and break stories of interest to Indonesians in the English language Post, which the Indonesian media found harder to cover. Ward Swingle: Founder Les Swingle Singers, US vocalist and jazz musician, b.1927 died 19 January, aged 88. Born Mobile, Alabama, Swingle studied music at Cincinnati Conservatory of Music while moonlighting with the big swing bands of the era. Post-war he studied piano with Walter Gieseking in Paris where he founded Les Swingle Singers in 1962 with soprano Christiane Legrand following a fortuitous al cappella scat improvisation of Bach’s WellTempered Klavier. Starting with further Bach works and the addition of bass and drums led to the formation of a group of eight voices and a stellar recording career, which continues to this day. In case you don’t remember the name, the dab-a-dap cool scat sound of Bach with swing together with Christiane Legrand’s celestial soprano soaring above it was unmistakable.

Marlboro Man, Darrell Winfield Dead at 85: Wyoming Rancher Darrell Winfield, born 1929 died 12 January, was the first and only truly authentic cowboy to be the face of the Marlboro brand of cigarettes owned by Phillip Morris. He became the leading figure in the brand’s iconic advertising campaign that ran between 1968 until 1989. It was Winfield, who more than anyone personified the rugged cowboy image that enabled Phillip Morris and their agency Leo Burnet to switch a struggling brand of mild cigarettes marketed to women into a universal brand aimed mostly at men. The re-branding succeeded beyond all expectations and Marlboro became the world’s leading cigarette. Interestingly Winfield died after a long illness on his ranch of unspecified causes. A number of men have served as the face of Marlboro cigarettes and at least four of these men portraying the rugged, macho Marlboro Man were to die from smoking-related causes, according to the Los Angeles Times, several of them having sued the manufacturers for causing their illness. Winfield, however, never spoke out publicly against the brand that made him a star and the cause of his death remains unspecified.
Bob Sadino, Jakarta businessman b.1939 (76). Bambang Mustari Sadino, an off-beat businessman popularly known in Indonesia by his nickname, Bob Sadino, died 19 January of an undisclosed illness. Born in Lampung, Bob earned his success story from his unorthodox approach to the livestock business. He was well known to the expatriate community in Jakarta over the past several decades as a character and for his rambling supermarket store Kem Chicks in the Kemang area, where it was possible to obtain a large variety of food products and packaged goods hard to find elsewhere in the capital.
Demis Roussos: Greek/Egyptian singer born 1946 died 25 January who, having teamed up with Vangelis and the progressive rock group Aphrodite’s Child, in Athens and Paris in the 1960s went on to a string of hits as a solo performer in the 1970s, selling over 60 million albums worldwide. Roussos had an instantly recognizable high tenor voice with tremolo, usually bazooka-backed, and scored big-time with such nostalgic European sounding middle-of-the-road mega hits as “Forever and Forever”, “Goodbye My Love, Goodbye” and “My Friend the Wind”. Prosper Ego: Dutch right wing politician, b. 1927 died 23 January, founder of the Oud-Strijders Legioen (“Former Warriors Legion”). After conscription to the Dutch East Indies in 1947-50 he returned to Holland and helped set up the Veteran’s League of the Netherlands for returned servicemen. Ego stood repeatedly for parliament but was never elected. His organisation supported apartheid and he was indicted and found guilty of inciting xenophobia. His organization was disbanded in 2010.

Edgar Froese: German artist and electronic music pioneer, b. 1944 d. 20 January, best known for founding the electronic music group Tangerine Dream in 1967, early protagonists of psychodelia and krautrock and by the 1980s, a techno ‘new age’ sound that was refreshingly non-vapid. Robert Stone: prizewinning US novelist, b.1937, died 10 January. Among other prizes Stone won the Pulitzer Prize in 1975 for his novel on Vietnam “Dog Soldiers”, also listed in the TIME 100 Best English-language Novels and later made into a movie with Nick Nolte.

KOPLAN CONSULTING Most people who live and visit Bali are interested in the many styles of homes that have sprung up all over the island. From the individual contemporary stylish home, smaller modern villas that are part of a complex, traditional Balinese style houses to the old wooden Joglo houses of Java. They all have their place and are called home to the vast numbers of expats that now reside here. With the onset of another year you may be considering building your own dream home, a home to lease or a renovation. Following is the story of a European architect who has just about Âżnished building his family home. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s take a step by step approach of a very interesting house, that outlines a number of important points for consideration

GARDEN DOCTOR by Dr. Kris
Water Gardens
by The Garden Doctor
‘Dear Dr. Kris, I would like to have a water feature garden in a large sealed pot with plants such as water lily or lotus but I am not sure how to tell the difference between these. Are there any other types of plants or even ¿sh that I could grow in a water garden, what are the main factors to consider for this type of gardening? Thankyou in advance, Beatrice.’
pond to keep the mosquito larvae in check. You won’t be able to enjoy the water feature if it is a breeding ground for mosquitoes, add a small pump/aerator to keep the water circulating. Solar aerators and solar fountains are relatively inexpensive and spare you the hassle of hooking up cables. If adding ¿sh when you start your water feature you must add a conditioner to neutralise chemicals such as chlorine which may be contained in town water, and a water ager which will introduce bacteria bene¿cial for ¿sh health.
From majestic Àowers to the tranquil sounds of trickling water and the serenity of Àickering reÀections, all are a welcome presence in any garden. A water feature can range in size from a small water bowl or fountain, right up to a series of large cascading pools. Container water gardens are much easier to develop, maintain and rearrange, the bigger the water feature the more maintenance and work it will require.
If you wait a week or two the natural interaction between the plants, soil and water will produce a natural bacteria level that you can then add ¿sh into. Start with a few minnows and one gold¿sh, it is much better to understock than overstock. Surface water plants will add oxygen and will help maintain water quality. Underwater plants/weeds which will grow from the pond Àoor to just below the surface such as elodea can be added as a natural food source for gold¿sh. In the absence of ¿sh there are also mosquito dunks which are small tablets you can add to the water that will prevent the mosquitoes breeding.
“What is the difference between water lily (Nymphaea genus) and lotus (Nelumbo genus)?” These plants are often confused with each other. A simple way to distinguish between water lilies and lotus is that the lilies will grow with the circular ‘lily pads’ that grow from below and Àoat on the water’s surface, whilst the lotus has leaves that grow from stalks protruding up to a metre above the water line. In Indonesia water lilies are known as bunga teratai, and lotus are called padma. You will probably be better off growing water lilies, as lotus prefer the space of a large pond, pool or swamp. Plants and Design When designing a water garden you could use a combination of plants with contrasting foliage types, heights and textures, to create an interesting landscape. The water lilies will grow from below and sit on the surface. You could add the tuberous calla lily which will grow from below up to a metre above, with large Àowers emerging from elongated stalks, then have the water lilies dispersed around this, and then ¿nally you can add a surface plant such as water lettuce which will Àoat on the surface and meander in the wind. Before introducing water plants into the container cover the surface soil of the plants with decorative pebbles to stop excessive leaching of the mud into the water feature. The pot should be placed so that the root stock of the lily or lotus lies about 20-40cm below the water surface. If your water is too deep, use bricks or an upturned pot to stand your plant on. Aquatic plants require full sun of at least 6 hours for consistent blooms. They will also need to be re-potted every two years to stop the pot becoming root-bound, which will also affect Àowering. To get the best out of the lotus, it’s best to plant them in an earth bottom pond, because the more the lotus can run, the more it will Àower. Water lettuce is placed free Àoating on the water surface so that it can Àoat around, it will also multiply rapidly. Water lilies and water lettuce will help to cover the surface of the pond restricting algal blooms in the process. You will need to cover at least 50-70% of the water surface to reduce the proliferation of algae in your pond which would otherwise starve the water of oxygen. You will ¿nd nurseries stocking an abundance of water plants in the Renon/ Sanur area especially on Jl. Hang Tuah, go there and have a look to see what is visually pleasing to you, as their display con¿gurations will also give you a starting point for your own ideas. Fish and Mosquitoes You should also seriously consider adding small ¿sh into the
Water Quality A water garden is a mini ecosystem, that reproduces nature, but on much smaller scale. It is important that the system is maintained within a healthy balance. By occasionally removing 25-50% of the water and adding new fresh water you will help dilute any potential chemistry problems, ammonia build up from ¿sh waste, nitrites and nitrates as well as algal growth. Regular partial water changes and the removal of dead leaves/organic matter are the primary duties in maintaining a healthy pond.

If you are having recurring problems with green murky water you will have to reduce algae growth by increasing surface cover. This can be done by adding more water lilies. Submerged plants (elodea), and floating plants (water lettuce) will also compete with algae for nutrients and a few water snails and sucking cat¿sh (which are only small) will also consume algae and aid the balance of the system. Otherwise move the water bowl to partial shade, but then you will have less potential for lily Àowers. If your ¿sh are breeding or tadpoles are present this is an indication that you have the system in perfect balance. With the system in balance, the combination of mosquito larvae, pond plants and naturally occurring bacteria will mean that you may rarely need to feed the ¿sh at all. Gold¿sh will also appreciate the occasional live worm or boiled pea! Make sure you touch the worm or pea on the water surface to alert the ¿sh, you don’t want the food falling to the bottom uneaten where it will slowly decompose and dirty the water.
NC/Ho/I-04 Feb 15
If the water develops an unpleasant odour you will need to remove the plants and ¿sh to a temporary tank, and scrub your water feature clean without using detergents. Adding 100% clean water, without appropriate water treatment would be disastrous for the ¿sh. Re¿ll with fresh water using the appropriate water conditioners and water ager as at the start. Good luck and happy gardening!

“A Kettle Of Fish” I wonder what the collective noun is for motorcycles. The way people ride in Bali it must be the same as for mosquitoes - a scourge of motorcycles. Bicycles? That must be a bother, a bother of bikes. Then we have a trouble of builders, a worry of architects and for a bunch of right wing politicians we have a tea party. We all know the collective noun for fish is a kettle and, of course, for crabs is a dose. When we talk about quantities we have to wonder which of the world’s countries has the largest population? It’s an interesting question but are we talking about the number of people or the amount of people? These days a typical supersized English personbeing is getting rather large and in terms of total mass the population of Shanghai is eclipsed by the male voice choir of Upper Nether Wallop, a place noted for having more fastfood joints per stomach than anywhere else in the United Kondom. It is estimated that if the whole population of California were to go swimming at the same time the sea level would rise by one metre and Pacific islands would vanish beneath the waves. On the beaches in Australia they have signs on the beaches telling people that for public safety they should only swim between the flags. What they don’t tell you is that it is not for your public safety. It is, in fact, to stop a major ingress of humankind causing a tsunami that could wipe out half of the island nations of the Western Pacific. It is a clever ploy to protect their island neighbours and, as the population gets larger, they can move the flags closer together. So what is the relevance of this? Well when a person gets into a swimming pool the water level rises, if a pod of people get into a pool it rises much more. If the pool is an “overflow” pool (such as an infinity edge pool) the water level in the pool is kept constant so if someone gets into it they will displace water which must overflow. If the person is a rice farmer from Klungkung the amount of water displaced will be enough to fill a couple of thimbles, not much of a problem but, with “grossly obese” becoming the new norm (apologies to Norm) in the Western world, when a western person gets into a swimming pool a substantial volume of water will be forced out. All that water has to go somewhere and it must be replaced later when the person gets out. To cope with these variations overflow pools need a buffer, a tank that can hold extra water when someone gets into the pool and then provides a reservoir of water to be pumped back in when the person gets out. This is called a balance or balancing tank. This process of collecting overflowing water and pumping it back in is all part of a swimming pool’s circulation system. Water circulation is an important consideration for any swimming pool and achieves three things: 1. It maintains the water level as we have mentioned. 2. It cleans and filters the water. There are many things that can contaminate a swimming pool from leaves dropping off trees; dogs, rats and cats that might fall in and, of course, little boys doing what little boys do in swimming pools. 3. It treats the water to kill bugs and stop it growing green algae and other living things. If left untreated for even a few days the water is likely to turn green as algae takes a hold and multiplies. Water overflowing from the pool is the start of the water circulation system.
Overflow Pools In many modern private pools the water overflows over an “infinity edge” into an overflow channel. Infinity edges are popular because they allow very effective design possibilities for architects. Many older designed swimming pools (particularly public pools) have overflow channels built around the inside of the walls of the pool with the water level below the upper edge of the pool. Modern designs tend to have the overflow channels set into the paving surrounding the pool set back from the edge so the pool is full right up to the same level as the pool surround. In many private homes the water overflows along one side of the pool running into an overflow channel set along the outside of the pool wall. In these “overflow” designs it is important that the water level is kept exactly to the level of the overflow so the water will keep overflowing. Unfortunately the amount of water in a pool varies not only as a result of people getting in and out as we have said but also as a result of water loss through evaporation and/or leaks (if there are any) all these factors are coped with by the balancing tank. The overflow channel(s) carry the water to the balance tank which is set below pool level.
Skimmer Box Pools Many pools are not overflow pools, the water level is below the top of the pool walls and is not constant, the level can rise and fall as the volume of water changes. These pools usually use what is called a skimmer box. This is a small box set into the side of the pool at water level. The skimmer box feeds water from the pool directly into the pool circulation pump. Skimmer boxes allow for variations in the water level in the pool - enough to cope with daily water evaporation or large bloated human bodies. These pools need no balancing tank and so are simpler and cheaper than overflow pools.
The Circulation System Both overflow and skimmer box pools draw water from the surface of the pool. This means there is a flow of water across the surface of the pool which carries away anything floating on the surface (hence the name “skimmer box”). As the water runs from the overflow channels or skimmer box into the first circulation pipes it passes through a strainer basket, a coarse filter which collects large debris such as leaves, bits of wood and the odd dead body. From here the water passes to the circulation pump which pumps the water to the second stage of filtration, which is usually a sand filter. This is a large tank full of sand and, as the water passes through the sand, any particles in the water larger than around 20 microns (that’s about the size of a mosquito’s testicle) are collected.

From the sand filter water passes on through a treatment process to kill off any bacteria and algae in the water. There are various different treatment methods to chose from the most common of which uses chlorine as a disinfectant. We’ll look at this another time. Water is returned to the pool usually through a series of pipes set into the walls of the pool. Careful positioning is needed to make sure all the pool water gets circulated with no dead spots.
Backwash From time to time we need to clean the sand filter and this is achieved by using extra piping and taps in the system which allow us to pump water backwards through the sand filter to release collected particles and wash them away down a drain. This processing is called backwashing. Most pools these days have fully automated backwashing systems. One last thing we need in the circulation pipework is an arrangement to empty the pool if we need to.
Circulation Design Considerations We need to treat all the water in the pool preferably at least once a day. Care is needed in designing a pool and its circulation system. Poorly designed pools can have stagnant areas where water can lie without being drawn into circulation, to avoid this we need careful placement of the water inlets and outlets.
NC/BM/G-4 Feb. 15
The size of the circulation pump and the pipework carrying the water must be designed to carry enough water to circulate the whole volume of the pool within a reasonable time. If these are underdesigned you may have to run the pump many hours a day. If they are overdesigned you may find the circulation is costing you a lot of money. Note that if you have a very deep pool there will be a lot more water to circulate.
Costs “A swimming pool is a hole full of water you throw money into.” If you have a swimming pool you will have to continuously filter and treat the water. For many people a swimming pool circulation pump is one of the larger electricity consumption items in a house and a major contributor to high electricity bills. In addition whichever way you treat the water this will also cost money. All this can be expensive although there are ways of keeping costs down. Before deciding to get a swimming pool it is a good idea to think through how often it will get used and how much it will cost to maintain it. Sensible design can considerably reduce the cost of initial installation and of ongoing maintenance. Personally I have never been particularly interested in having a swimming pool, it’s not really my kettle of fish. Phil Wilson Opinions are those of Phil Wilson.

Lothar Nikolaiczuk was born in 1954, the son of a Ukrainian father and German mother. He was brought up in Bochum, one of the many nondescript unattractive cities in the industrial center of Germany. What gave Lothar the chess bug in his youth was rather unique. Instead of seeing people play, he found a book on chess in a big wooden box containing the book collection of a friend’s deceased grandfather. Dozens of titles with fanciful pictures competed for his attention, but he was irresistibly attracted to the only one with just a small title on colorless cover, Knaurs Schachbuch. Although he couldnʻt understand the chess diagrams with columns of letters and numbers, he immediately felt that they belonged in his life - as if something had come back that had been there before. Nowadays he is considered one of the world’s most prolific chess writers, completing just one month ago his 25th book on chess.
What’s your best general chess advice? I’ll give you two examples which can also be applied to life: Wishful thinking is the first step towards disaster and to repair a mistake you first have to acknowledge that you’ve made a mistake. What are some key “bad” behaviors that keep players stuck at one level? Lack of objectivity, of self-criticsm. If you become strong and confident enough to understand how weak you sometimes play, then you have half mastered the game. What is the most memorable game you’ve ever played? In 1986 I qualified for a grandmaster tournament where one of my opponents was Vassily Smyslov, a world champion at the time I was born. I outplayed him, but somehow couldnʼt find a way to win. My advantage vanished, I tortured myself with self reproaches, lost my concentration and in the end lost the game. Afterwards Smyslov admitted that at one point he was just about to stretch out his hand to resign, but that my hand moved quicker to make a weak move instead of the winning one which was so simple that any of my students would have found it within seconds. For consolation the chess legend gave me a wonderful compliment, “You play highly cultivated chess.“
Did you have an unusual childhood?
What’s the state of chess in Indonesia?
It was overshadowed by long and severe illnesses. As a result I have never kicked a football in my life but very early began to read a lot and think even more.
I donʼt know about the other islands, but in Bali chess is somehow tainted by the fact that stronger players mostly want to play for money. I once won a considerable amount from a very talented young man. When the bout ended, I gave him his money back and explained that I would gladly play him again without any betting. He never contacted me again.
When did you start learning chess? Aged 15 and thus ten years too late to become a top player. Musicians have to start early to build up certain muscles, joints, sensibilities, so they become used to extreme challenges. For chess players, itʼs the ʻthink-contraption.ʼ Another obstacle was the lack of support from my environment. For a clan of coalminers, a kid who wants to become a chess player was thought to be doomed to end up in a madhouse. What got you interested in chess? From a book I found about chess - not for beginners but for advanced players - I eventually taught myself to understand the game. The approach I used was characteristic of my whole career - no help from a teacher but learning from scratch like any autodidact. When I went to a small chessclub two years later and applied what I learned, it turned out to be so effective that after only one year I became the club champion. Five years later I qualified for the German championship tournament where I placed fifth. Have you done much international travel? Moving from one tournament to the other in western Europe didn’t really qualify as travelling because I hardly saw anything apart from the chess arenas. But in 1989 an assignment to write an encyclopedia of chess strategy gave me the means to leave the western civilization, where I had never felt at home. I lived in Morocco, Kenya and Ghana for 15 years before moving to Bali in 2005.
C/Bm/I-21 Jan 15
Does a professional chess player only make money by playing? Not necessarily. I’ve done a lot of teaching, chess journalism and show exhibitions like simultaneously playing against 50 opponents or blindfolded against ten. And of course writing books.
C/BM/U-01 Oct 14
NC/BM/M-4 Feb 15
I first studied to become an interpretor and translator in English, French and Russian. Later on I made it a rule to always learn the language of my chosen adopted country, so that now my linguistic repertoire consists of seven foreign languages.
If any young person would like to pursue chess in a serious manner, what would be your advice? If youʼre not ready to end up living from hand to mouth like Lothar Nikolaiczuk, then don’t even think about it. No, on a more serious note, if you consider brain surgery or astrophysics to be difficult, then you had better just play chess as an entertaining hobby. What do you do when not working on your chess books? I love literature and have just published my first novel, soon to be followed by a collection of short stories. I also enjoy chitchatting with locals, listening to classical music and taking walks on the beach. How may you be contacted? niko_schach@yahoo.com

Pathways to Healing the Body, Mind & Spirit By Michele Cempaka
A Beautiful Union of Rolfing & Feldenkrais
What do you get when you marry Rolfing with Feldenkrais? A whole new system called Somalogy. Tyr Throne, founder of Somalogy, Youthing Systems, and AquaSoma, and director of these training programs in the US, Europe, Canada, Central America, and Asia, has helped thousands of people over the last 30 years. He is certified in Advanced Structural Integration, Feldenkrais, Bones for Life, NLP, Yoga and Meditation, and is also an award-winning director of dance and theater. Tyr has a very special gift which he happily shares with the world. He cares about how to help people get back to what they love to do. Tyr says he is grateful to the Structural integration work because it helps him to see how to untwist something that’s out of alignment in someone’s body, while Feldenkrais gives him the tools to help people learn how to have better posture and move with greater ease. Tyr had grants from the Sida program which gave him the opportunity to work with very diverse clients spanning from Autistic people to mass murderers. As he assisted them to untwist their bodies, their state of minds completely changed. In September 2014, I had a serious motorbike accident and broke my right upper arm. I initially went to see an Osteopath who told me that I was in pretty bad shape – much worse than I probably knew. I Ieft her office feeling pretty discouraged. I decided to seek out another practitioner and was fortunate enough to hear about Tyr who currently works out of Taksu. After doing two sessions with Tyr, I began to see immediate improvement. Our first session focused on Feldenkrais, which is a very gentle but potent system that assists people to become more aware of any restrictive body patterns that may be inhibiting our ability to move freely or be more comfortable in our bodies. Tyr explained in great detail that how I was holding my shoulders, the way that I walked without swinging my arms and even how I sat were all having a negative impact on my arm and shoulder which had become frozen. My muscles were literally stuck together. After showing me how I could correct these patterns and improve my movement intelligence, I could feel a big difference in my whole body. During my second appointment, Tyr incorporated more Rolfing into my session, stretching my stuck muscles with deep pressure and long strokes down my right side of the body. I felt my arm loosening and opening up which was wonderful. At the end of this session, I could reach my injured arm significantly higher above my head then I had ever done prior to our appointments. I was truly amazed by how effective Somalogy was in releasing my stuck muscles and retraining my body to move more efficiently in such a short time. In February, Tyr is offering three trainings in Ubud, Bali. In the ‘Youthing – Movement Intelligence training’ you will learn how to move your body with intelligence and flow which will literally take years off of your age. The course will be held from February 14 – 19th and costs just US$120. Participants will learn the entire 30 processes of Tyr Throne’s upcoming book: “Youthing – how to feel and look 10 years younger in 10 minutes a day.”
C/BM/G-29 Oct. 14
These movements feel wonderful and are gentle and fun. You will also discover how to remove a lifetime of pain; you’ll never have to worry about it coming back again. The training will include wonderful tips on how to stand, have the best posture, experience more comfort at the computer, greater flexibility and balance and much more. The second training is for those seeking professional accreditation. In the ‘Somalogy Professional Training’ you will learn the professional applications of the Youthing System, how to improve your posture and feel better than you’ve ever felt in you life. Participants will learn how to analyze posture and fix problems of the neck, shoulders, back, hips, arms and legs directly and quickly. In addition, you will learn exercises that are fun to do and only take a few seconds to maintain and will help improve the results for both you and your clients. Tyr will share the best tools of all his knowledge attained from Structural Integration and Feldenkrais, as well as his expertise in anatomical structure and years of knowledge about movement as a professional dancer, martial artist and yoga teacher. This training will be held from February 14-19 from 10am – 5pm and is US $600. The third training is ‘AquaSoma Professional Training’ which will be held February 22-27, 10am-6pm, and is US$750. The AquaSoma training is for those who would like to enjoy the amazing healing aspects of working in the water for themselves, and learn how to work professionally in the Watsu pool to fix neck, shoulder, back, hip, arm and leg problems. AquaSoma can also assist people with improving their posture and flexibility, balance, breathing, and sleeping. Many people have reported after experiencing this dynamic treatment that they feel and look stronger, younger, and more attractive. It can also help enhance to yoga, meditation, dancing and running, by moving in special ways through the water.

“Suppression leads to depression and holding is olding,” says Tyr. His tip for us is that Instead of holding yourself stiff and straight, we should look for a symphonic movement with our arms and legs so that they move in harmony with each other like a symphony.

Talk With the Experts: Bali’s Solar Energy Providers By Bill Dalton If you want to know the truth about a speci¿c topic, ask the people who know. I wanted an answer to why the penetration of solar energy technology has been so disappointingly slow in Bali and Indonesia as a whole. The vast Indonesian archipelago - 17,000 islands straddling the equator along a 4200-km-long arc - is one of the sunniest regions on earth. You’d think that the nation’s potential of providing nearly unlimited free solar energy would be exploited to the fullest. But the reality is that the development of this endlessly renewable source of power generation has been taking place at a snail’s pace. With recent technological and regulatory developments, that might be changing. In order to learn what the critical issues were and what a buyer needs to know before purchasing one of these costly systems, I met with three of the most highly regarded purveyors of solar energy equipment on Bali. All of them know and support each other, pass business on to each other and in some cases serve the same clients. Taken together, the three interviews reÀect the reality of the solar energy industry on the island today. Matthias Wenisch: P.T. Daya Matahari Indonesia From the Sunset R o a d MacDonald’s, I fell in behind Matthias’ on his motorcycle to a non-descript building complex along a canal just five minutes away. Inside the gate was a small, c r o w d e d a n d Matthias Wenisch & assistant Frina Harliandini o b v i o u s l y overworked of¿ce. I ¿rst asked Matthias what were the most common misconceptions people have about solar power. “There are a lot of misunderstandings about warranties,” he answered. “With 22 years in the business, I can personally assure you that neither suppliers nor manufacturers offer 25-year warranties as many of Indonesia’s solar companies advertise. Not even in the EU do they offer warranties that long without paying extra. On the other hand, good quality PV systems sold in Bali have proven lifetimes of more than 30 years.” How can you tell that the equipment is good quality? “Everybody advertises ‘German made,’ but it seldom is. One way of ¿nding out is to ask for the product certi¿cate and shipping documents, though these can be faked. The best guarantee of all is to use a reliable, trusted company, and get recommendations from their clients.” Matthias encourages potential customers to check out already up and running solar PV systems that he’s installed in residences and businesses. “No problem,” he said. “Start with the 20 customers on our homepage: www.prosol.co.id. I stand by my work.” Have you done any installations for properties that are completely off the grid? “The Suarga Resort in Padang Padang on the Bukit has a very serious system that provides 100% of the electrical needs of guests, including hot water. What should customers be especially aware of when installing a solar system on Bali? “You have to be very careful about the electrical system already in place in your house. Faulty systems, which are installed in 90% of Bali’s residences, have unbalanced electrical loads, an unstable “dirty” electrical power supply and don’t have surge protection from the grid (PLN) if there’s a lightning storm or leakages. There could even be dangerous situations like no prober grounding. I can’t give a warranty if there are incorrect electrical installations, so I inspect the household’s electrical hookups before I begin work. What are your biggest sellers? “Number one are solar pool pumps. We sell 2-3 every month. For an average-sized 60 cubic meter pool, a quality pump costs $5000 but has a return on investment of less than ¿ve years. This is a great power saver because regular pumps run 365 days a year with yearly electrical costs of at least $700. Our second hottest item is the 200-liter solar hot water system, which have the fastest ROI of all solar energy equipment. Chinese made systems cost $1000 and last two years; German made ones are $3000 but last more than 20 years.”
Do you have many Balinese customers? “Most Indonesians only worry about the costs and don’t focus on the technology and quality. They need to start looking on solar energy as an investment that is good for them and for the environment. I sometimes hear people say, “I can buy two cars with that much money!” That’s true, but I’ve never heard of a return of investment for a car. Prosol, Matthias Wenisch, hp 082-132-033-477, email: matthias@ prosol.co.id, website: www.prosol.co.id. Catherine Hartmann: P.T. Solar System Indonesia (Sunny Tech) We met at Bali Buda Kerobokan and for five minutes I followed Catherine down a winding road of gated villas and occasional rice ¿elds that led to a smart of¿ce of clean white walls, louvered windows, modernist furniture and three brand new big-screen Macintosh desktops. In one corner towered a truly impressive 260watt thermal solar power unit. “The ¿rst question people ask is ‘how much,’ not ‘how much can I save?’” Catherine began. “So we always emphasize the substantial long-term cost savings, especially now that PLN rates are going up by 25% every quarter. Just do the math.” In the courtyard yard Catherine showed me a sophisticated solar inverter, which converts the variable direct current (DC) output of the property’s photovoltaic (PV) panels into alternating current (AC), allowing the use of ordinary AC-powered equipment. That might sound complicated, but I could see the meter converting numbers right before my eyes. “If someone has a limited budget, what would be the cheapest and easiest solar system to install at home?” Catherine didn’t hesitate. “A grid-tied system that is still connected to the local power company. During the day solar powers your home appliances, then at night PLN takes over. This system gives you a backup, so you’ll always have power.”
P.T. Solar System Indonesia (Sunny Tech), Catherine Hartman, hp 087-861-996-647, email: catherine@solarsystemindonesia. com, website: www.solarsystemindonesia.com. Pieter de Vries: Contained Energy The offices and workshop of Contained Energy were situated on the highest point of land on the Bukit, overlooking the vast expanse of Nusa Dua resort complex and stretching to the azure sea beyond. Pieter de Vries started talking effusively as soon as I sat down. In the business for more than 10 years, Pieter began by debrie¿ng me on a peculiar anomaly that is found in solar energy’s acceptance in this land of boundless sunshine. “The word solor in Indonesia means diesel fuel, a source of energy that couldn’t be more opposite to the clean energy that I support.” But that contradiction doesn’t matter,” Pieter said. “A more dif¿cult sell is convincing people of the soundness of making the signi¿cant upfront investment in a system. I tell people that they are buying 25 years of energy today at rates ¿xed for that period of time. Look on it as prepaid electricity.” Contained Energy has installed over 100 solar energy projects all over the archipelago – from Aceh, Bintang, and Papua to Flores and the Mentawais off the West coast of Sumatra - ranging in all sizes and complexity. “Though other companies are bigger in dollar earnings, in terms of resources and projects we are the most active in the country. In Bali, our focus is on villas and hotels.” Why hasn’t the penetration of the technology been more widespread? “At present banks offer no ¿nancing for solar energy. When banks start to offer payment plans, it will be a game changer. I like to use the analogy…try to imagine how many cars would there be on Bali’s roads if owners couldn’t get ¿nancing?”
I needed dollar ¿gures to relate to. How many Watts does one solar panel generate? “Depending on its size and capacity, from 30 up to 300 Watts. The cost of a small panel, which generates 50-85 Watts to charge a mobile phone or power a lamp radio, would be around $100. In order to run a fridge or AC unit, you’d need a 300-500 Watt panel, costing around $1500, including batteries or inverter.”
There’s a sea change taking place in the industry at the moment that has made solar energy suddenly more competitive. “Firstly, PLN electrical bills are really starting to scare people. The cost of energy will be increasing 60% over the coming months. Secondly, the installation costs and the price of panels have decreased 80% over the last 2-3 years. Thirdly, solar energy systems have lifespans now of 25+ years. What else can you put up on your roof that would last that long? Installing a solar PV system is something that people will only ever do once.”
Catherine opened the door of a separate cooler room packed wall-to-wall with $60,000 dollars worth of big red batteries. “Batteries alone are about 70% of the cost of a whole house system like ours,” she said.
“Another very positive development is that PLN has just put in force a regulation called ‘net metering’ that requires their customers to put excess energy back into the grid, but not before they get credit for their excess energy. This is hugely signi¿cant.”
What would be needed to supply solar power for 3-4 people living in a two-bedroom house? “Well, it depends of course on the client’s lifestyle, but on average a two-bedroom house would require a 3 KW system that would cost $14,000 to $17,000. But that’s only if they’re not running their air conditioners all day long!”
”For remote, off-grid locations, ‘hybrid’ systems - a combination of solar panels, passive energy measures and a diesel generator in case of power outages – now make an extremely good investment, with returns often as little as 3 years just from savings of the cost of diesel fuel. For these systems, the quality of the batteries is by far the most critical consideration.”
Would the exposure it gets from the sun be enough for a solar system to run smoothly? “If it’s positioned along Bali’s south coast, a panel can generate up to 6 hours of energy Àow per day. In Ubud in south-central Bali, a panel would typically generate power up to 4 hours per day. We can actually make a more exact calculation by using software with access to NASA data, which forecasts geological temperature, rainfall, sun output, etc.” Sunny Tech’s whole building complex is the best advertisement for effective use of alternative energy. The main 5-bedroom villa, a smaller 2-bedroom villa, two guesthouses, plus the of¿ce building are all powered by one vast solar array (with PLN as backup) that powers lighting, two pool pumps, a deep well pump, water ¿lters, energy saving a/c units, inverters and hot water heaters. We clambered up onto the roof where every available surface seemed to be covered with PV solar panels. “You have to invest a lot in the beginning, but within 4-5 years a solar energy system really starts to pay for itself. From then on, your energy is basically free.
When making the leap and purchasing one of these expensive systems in Bali, what do you have to be particularly careful about? “You have to pay a lot of attention to the quality of the installation. This means using solid companies. It’s taken us 5 years to train our technicians properly. We also use only quality imports for such integral parts as inverters, cables and modules.” Admiring the view, I asked if he based his business on the high ground of the Bukit because it’s so sunny here?” “No. I’m a sailor,” Pieter smiled. “I just love the view of the sea.” Contained Energy, Pieter de Vries, hp 081-685-8906, email: pdv@ containedenergy.com, website: www.containedenergy.com.

By Ayu Spicy Here is another Lao recipe that is easy to vary. Yo u c a n substitue chicken or tofu for the fish. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a refreshing main course salad with crunch and different levels of taste. Tanmak cooking school in Luang Prabang, uses shredded banana flower to give some bite but I prefer to use quinoa or another grain. The browned rice powder is important but easy to make at home (see instructions below).
Lao Larp Serves 2 Ingredients: - 200 gr. white fish, such as dore or snapper - 2 Tbl. stock or water - 1 Tbl. lime juice - 2 Tbl. cooked quinoa or other grain or banana flower, very thinly sliced - 2 kaffir lime leaves, thinly slivered - 1 green onion, thinly sliced - 2 shallots, thinly sliced - 2 small cloves of garlic, thinly sliced - 1 handful of coriander leaf, finely chopped - 2 stalks lemongrass, the white part only thinly sliced - 1/4 tsp. salt - 1 tsp. ground cayenne or 1 small fresh chili seeded and finely chopped - 1/4 tsp. fish sauce - 6 leaves of rucola, torn by hand - 1 Tbl. rice powder (see note below) - 1 Tbl. crisply fried garlic slices (you can purchase these in the supermarket for easier prep) - 1Tbl. crisply fried shallot slices (you can purchase these in the supermarket for easier prep)
- 3 branches coriander leaf for garish
C/Ns/G-21 Jan. 15
- 8-10 lettuce leaves, washed, drained and chilled Directions: Put the fish and stock or water into a cold wok with a lid. Add half the lime juice and turn the heat to low. Cover the wok and cook the fish until done but not dry. When the fish is done remove it from the wok and chop it into small bite sized pieces. Put the fish in a bowl big enough for all the ingredients. Add the quinoa or banana flower and mix well. Add the slivered lime leaves, green onion, shallot and garlic slices, the coriander leaf and the lemongrass. Mix this well. In a small bowl mix the salt, chili or cayenne, fish sauce and mix this well before pouring over the fish mixture. At this point you can hold the larp until ready to serve. When ready add the torn rucola leaves, rice powder, the fried garlic and shallot slices and toss until everything is well mixed. Put the larp on a serving plate and garnish with the coriander branches.
NC/R/M-21 Jan. 15
Serve crisp lettuce leaves along side the larp, Each diner takes a leaf tops it with some of the larp, rolls it up and eats it. Note: To make the rice powder. In a heavy skillet dry roast white sticky rice or long grained rice until golden brown, stirring constantly. Cool the roasted rice and then grind in a blender, spice mill or in a mortar and pestle. It keeps for a long time in an airtight container. Mi khuaam suk dan a han klong than! (Which means bon appetit in Lao)

Update Sardinia Café was one of the first restaurants to open at Beachwalk, Bali’s premier shopping
complex. With the combination of a great position [main street entrance, over-looking the beach] and proven management [same as Cocoon], it was not surprising that Sardinia Café opened busy and has remained that way. The fare is mainly Italian and they even have an Italian chef but the menu does its best to present something for all tastes. Breakfast can be traditional Eggs Benedict, a Burrito [scrambled egg, chicken, bean, cheese, tomato, avocado, roasted capsicum, onion and tomato salsa], healthy with Honey Toasted Muesli [cashew nut, walnut, yoghurt, seasonal fruits & side milk] followed by a Mushroom Omelette or the Sardinia Special [poached egg, spinach, bacon, chipolata, mushrooms tomato, baked beans & roast potatoes. Just a snack? Try the Tapas menu; Mushroom Arancini, Prawn Skewers or Angry Potatoes. Pasta is with a difference; Beetroot Gnocchi or a Seafood Risotto [saffron rice, prawns, squid, barramundi, parsley, olive oil]. Pizza? Of course! All the standards are here plus Smoked Chicken with jalapenos, roasted peppers, bbq sauce. Following the current trend in Bali there are Burgers on the menu, Standard [beef, lettuce, tomato, cheese, mayonnaise, pickles, caramelized onion & salad] or Vegetarian [chick pea, lentil & corn patty, lettuce tomato, roast carrot & eggplant, mayo, fries & salad], For those on a health trip the Super Food Salad is perfect [quinoa, chick peas, avocado, sunflower seed tangerine, coriander leaf, cherry tomato, mint leaf, edamame, grill zucchini, grill eggplant with pepitas dressing] Pick of the Italian mains is their Tagliata [thin sliced sirloin, rocket & grana padano drizzled with truffle oil] but the Tasmanian Salmon Fillet [pictured] with tabouli, fennel & mint salad, picada dressing, is excellent!
Valentine’s Day was an American invention but it is now celebrated throughout the world. Bali joins the trend with many options for a romantic dinner for two [with maybe even a rose for the lady?].

Restaurant Review
By Gerry Williams E-mail: gerry@balieats.com
Down the Lane! The Laneway is the latest restaurant offering at the luxurious Peppers Sentosa Resort [formerly Sentosa Villas], It follows many other gastronomic breakthroughs for Bali [Blossom, EVO and Salt Tapas] at this site, all of which have presented something new and interesting, all of which were of extremely high quality. Peppers is a famous name in Australia for a range of boutique hotels that always feature a high level of cuisine, the type that attracts discerning guests. Peppers Hotels is a division of The Mantra Group, Australia’s most successful and largest hotel management group. The menu for The Laneway keeps a few old favourites from previous menus but in general provides quality comfort food, dishes that suit all tastes. In keeping with their philosophy there is quite a selection of tasty vegetarian and generally healthy food as well as all the usual specials for the carnivores. In a move to be applauded all gluten free dishes are so marked. Just a snack or to start; the Cumin Spiced Beetroot dip is served with flat bread, the Pulled Pork Slider with Asian slaw and chili, mini crisp sesame seed buns that you take two bites from and just ‘slide into your mouth! Perhaps a Garlic Crostini topped with avocado, date, Spanish onion, feta, tomato and basil or something more substantial, Grilled King Prawns, big juicy ones, covered with a mound of hummus and croutons, all wrapped together in a saffron yoghurt. The Japanese Chicken Miso is a soup with enoki mushroom, rice, garlic and ginger [GF]. All the salads are GF; Rocket with parmesan and balsamic, Tomato, buffalo mozzarella, pesto, balsamic and extra virgin oil, Fennel with rocket, chick pea, cherry tomato and jalapeno chili or Organic lettuce, tomato, red onion, cucumber, snow peas. Healthy and tasty all. The taste of Asia begins with their Seafood Pad Thai [in reality Pad Thai Goong, tossed rice noodles with egg, crushed peanuts, prawns, eshallot, tofu and bean sprouts].
The Char-grilled Pork is amazingly tender, it is served with enoki mushroom, coriander, sesame seeds, lemongrass and ginger, the meat may be tender but it is strongly infused with flavour. Whilst the Vietnamese Chicken Salad is with crispy eshallot, and a green chili coconut dressing [GF]. An interesting main is the one that says Bali Red Duck even though it sounds Thai. It is their Red Duck Curry with apple eggplant, galangal, kaffir lime leaves, tamarind and rice, very Thai although the red curry is so mild a Thai would hardly recognise it! However it is a great dish and one that any lover of duck meat will enthuse over, the duck quarter, leg and half-breast, is so tender from the slow cooking process, yet retains all of its flavour. Other mains include a Grilled chicken breast with preserved lemon, thyme & garlic wok-fried vegetables [GF], Pan-fried Salmon, truffle oil mashed potato and asparagus lemon butter. The Char-grilled Beef Sirloin, green beans, cherry tomatoes, anchovy butter is 200gm size, [GF]. Seared Barramundi [a large slab thereof] is stacked with cauliflower puree, fennel & crab salad [GF] and Cumin spiced Lamb Cutlets, eggplant caponata, pesto [GF] are another dish where taste is dominant. A taste of Italy [a cuisine that everyone loves] includes Spaghetti with crab, blistered cherry tomatoes, rocket, white wine, spicy chilli oil, Farfalle topped with lamb shoulder ragout, tomato, rosemary and fried parsley whilst the Risotto is with leek, porcini mushroom, sage, white wine and parmesan [GF] Desserts include a very rich Chocolate hazelnut semi-freddo, perfect for the chocoholics. The Mixed Berry eton mess sits on a biscuit basket surrounded by raspberry coulis, the type of dessert that is loved by all, children and adults alike. Other sweet items, as desserts should be, include a Cinnamon doughnut with Chantilly crème, dark chocolate and strawberry jam, the special Peppers Apple Pie is joined by perfect vanilla bean ice cream or there is a simple Lemon Tart with strawberries and fresh cream. Where is The Laneway? Just down the lane past what was once The Living Room, at the end of which is the luxurious Peppers Sentosa Resort, the restaurant nestling comfortably beside the landscaped swimming pool, which makes you feel as if you are on holidays, even if you are not. Food to enjoy, without spending an arm and a leg!

Ubud Area UBUD NEWS REGGAE CHARITY FESTIVAL Ubud reggae man, Fredi Marley, will play on the same stage as four top Jakarta bands this week, at Bali’s second Reggae Star Festival on the beach near Sanur this Friday. We miss Fredi Marley and friends, who we haven’t seen since Napi Orti, the late night venue, shifted from Jl Monkey Forest and stopped using live bands. Organisers say all pro¿ts will go to Yayasan Manik Bumi Foundation (for environmental awareness and waste reduction in Bali) and Yayasan Sampahdi (supporting disabled children). The festival starts at 2.45pm on Friday, February 6 on Pantai Padang Galak, Kesiman, just off Jl By Pass Sanur. Tickets and more information: Art Point Pregina, Phone 0361 284158. Ubud reggae fans, never fear. Kum and the Ubud 40 band still play at LOL on Jl Monkey Forest every Tuesday night. HERONS ON SHOW Those glorious Kokokan herons are back in Petulu Village and having little babies by the hundred. Pop over at sunset to see thousands of them Àying over the rice ¿elds, or arrive quietly at any time during the day and wander along the road to watch the little fellas on their nests. The youngsters are all white and disheveled-looking, only developing their elegant gold crest and wings in their second year. Local Petulu legend has it that the herons carry the souls of spirits from the great Communist party killings of the 1960’s. The villagers there will tell you that the birds appeared the day after their head priest a held a ceremony to cleanse the village of the evil energy that lingered after the massacre. People in my village say the birds used to be here in Junjungan, but all their favorite trees were cut down and the birds decided to move. Either way, Petulu is their home now. PAULA’S JOINT I had a delicious fresh penne seafood at Paula’s Rice Terrace Cafe the other day, and a fascinating chat with Douglas, the owner’s husband, who showed me recent kid-friendly renovations including a completely safe play area for children, facing the rice ¿elds on the lower level. Parents can enjoy the view and watch their kids at the same time! Lots of simple “Kids Choices” on the menu, together with excellent salads (the Caesar salad lettuce crisp and fresh, lots of bacon and Parmesan cheese), pastas, hamburgers, a few well-prepared Indonesian favorites and four “family favorite” breakfasts, catering for light and hearty eaters. Paula’s has one of the few sunset views in Ubud – not to the horizon, but over a sweeping view of rice ¿elds and tropical forest – and I love a sunset! With some of my favorite traditional frozen cocktails on the list, I’ll certainly be back with friends very soon. Located north of Ubud Palace on Jl Suweta. Facebook: Paula’s Rice Terrace Cafe. COLD PRESS CLASS Ubud’s local organic farmer and teacher, Hartono Lokodjoyo, now sells fresh virgin coconut oil and has started classes to teach you how to produce it yourself. Har does some of the prep work before class … “because with beginners it would be a very long day, ibu Jen” … but he assures me that the process is very simple once you have the knack. Har’s Garden is opposite the NOT FOR SALE art installation near the top of Jl Sri Wedari, three kilometers north of Jl Raya Ubud. For more info, search Har’s Garden on Facebook or call/ sms him on 081337 382 099.

ECO-PONCHO Didn’t it rain, children! Oh my lordy, it’s really wet season at last, and time to haul out that grubby old poncho from last season. Or better still, invest in a Biowear Eco Poncho, made from all natural bio-materials. The eco poncho is lightweight and keeps out rain like the old model, yet it’s “bioplastic”, or organic cellulose. Made of starches from corn and sunÀower crops (produced on non-genetically engineered farms), the poncho is certified “biodegradable and compostable” under European, US and Australian standards. No, it will not melt, fall apart or disintegrate after one or two rainfalls; with normal wear it will last an entire rainy season or longer. Yes, it will eventually get scratched and torn, however – unlike your old one - it will degrade within a year, becoming a protein for the eco-system. Decompose your poncho by tossing it into a compost bin or burying it in your garden. (If it gets as far as the ocean, it will degrade in the same way.) Buy for personal use from the little green Eco Shop on Jl Dewi Sita; or take from them on consignment to sell in your resto, shop, or hotel. BALI SPIRIT RISING Planning for the 8th BaliSpirit Festival is gathering momentum; the day program is full to overflowing with another rich mix of yoga, dance and meditation classes and most international night concert headliners are already booked. BSF fully funds two ongoing non-pro¿t ventures – an HIV Aids education program in Balinese high schools, and a long-term reforestation (bamboo) project up in Bali’s arid northeast – with the support of corporate sponsors and individual donations.

Forests should be returned to their indigenous tribes – look up what Martin von Hildebrand did in Columbia. Government decisions should be pro-people. The destruction of the forests, the huge ¿sh export and illegal ¿shing in Indonesia is pro-business not pro-people. SN: How can we undo generations of unsustainable development – the big businesses stealing from the poor people? RN: I am not against development, even though it seems to work in parallel with destruction, the damage can be minimised with sustainable design, principles of caring for people, nature and future.
A Rock ‘n’ Roll star at a Writers’ Festival by Sarita Newson Gede Robi Supriyanto (Robi Navicula) is a Balinese rock musician, activist, w r i t e r, f a r m e r, director of Akarumput.com, and a certified permaculture designer who teaches organic farming around Indonesia. Robi is the vocalist, guitarist, and founder of popular Indie rock band Navicula combining his activism and music as tools for social change. Since 1996 in Bali, they have released seven albums and won awards internationally, toured Canada, the United States and Australia. They collaborate with organisations such as Greenpeace, Indonesia Corruption Watch (ICW), Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI), Wahana Lingkungan Hidup Indonesia (Walhi), and the farmers union Serikat Petani Indonesia (SPI). At Ubud Writers & Readers Festival 2014, Robi participated with two other activists in a panel titled A Creative Change. As global warming, deforestation, unchecked development beset Indonesia; many battle to bring environmental issues into the spotlight. Some hold rallies; others organise fundraisers; Robi and his band use music to bring focus to the environment, and the issues they expose are complex, reaching deep beneath the fabric of life in Indonesia. Robi agreed to delve further into the very interesting issues raised during this discussion. Sarita Newson (SN): Robi, it was wonderful to have you share your work as a songwriter and activist at the last UWRF, and I would like to bring it to our readers at Bali Advertiser. How do you feel about using your creative energy in activism, and your struggle to protect what’s left of the forests in Sumatra and Borneo, the habitat of the Orangutan and the Sumatran Tiger? Robi Navicula (RN): I strive to raise hope by collaboration, with NGOs, politicians, academics, photographers, ¿lmmakers, musicians and artists. We are now more aware of the impact of forest destruction upon global warming. I use our band merchandise to encourage people to be part of the movement, publicly showing what they care about with what they use. SN: What do you feel is the key to changing the cyclical domination of the disenfranchised that leads to poverty and poor soils, robbing farmers of their pride and livelihoods? RN: Often people are too poor to care. They are too busy trying to survive. If we address the issues of poverty, then they rise above survival mode and become able to care about quality of life and the environment. SN: It seems that you trust a lot in the peaceful art of persuasion? Does popular music empower the younger generation? RN: I believe governments wield the strongest power for creative change. The problem is that here we hit a strong wall of corruption. If we can deal with this it would allow a signi¿cant improvement. From conversations with friends at ICW I hear the KPK (Corruption Eradication Commission) are focusing on corruption in relation to natural resources. Our song on YouTube Ma¿a Hukum remains a big hit with young and old; Di Rimba and Bubur Kayu expose forest decimation. Our biggest problem is that people are uninformed, so education is important. Many people suddenly become poor when they get sick; reducing corruption in health services would reduce poverty. Another of our songs, Ma¿a Medis, addresses this. The needs of many should be provided for, with resources that constitutionally belong to the people – we need a wiser distribution. With all the basic rights of living met, then comes voting power, people learn to question the powers that be and express their concerns. Our music brings the issues into their consciousness.

The youth – all people in fact – care more and become more generous when they are in a good economic base. People in Indonesia should live well, as it is a rich country, but many don’t understand how rich they are. They do not appreciate their resources. For example, West Papua no longer has a good university, and it is very expensive to Ày in and out of the island. One of the things President Jokowi wants to do is improve travel, communication, and information between Indonesian islands. In Papua indigenous people struggle to hold natural resources that are being stolen from them; yet those who are uninformed cannot value what they have. Returning the forests to the indigenous people works; their traditional way of life sustains balance with the environment and prevents climate change for all of us. Some don’t realise this, and may think progress more important. SN: Desperation seems to have found voice in your activism, the music of your band Navicula and Akarumput.com your online media outlet. As a songwriter, and a writer of a blog for the environment, do you feel that your words are reaching out to people? For example your ¿lm and song on Orangutan, it shocked a lot of people in the audience.

RN: It’s not desperation, it’s about bringing out the fact that things are “sad but true”. We go on ¿eld trips – share what we ¿nd, not to traumatise but to awaken, trigger and stimulate urgency that we have to act now. We made the music video Orangutan, to show what is actually happening. The audience questioned the harsh images of orangutans losing their home. I am teaching at a school (kindergarten, primary and junior high school) and we teach them to appreciate the beauty of nature, making it particularly ‘cool’ for the elder children to be aware and do something about the bad things they see. However, for university students, NGO and government of¿cials it is necessary to show the worst scenario to raise their sense of urgency. We have to ¿nd a balance between push and pull, to praise and condemn (constructively criticise). When you are pushing you can encourage people to be creative. Akarumput is a legal, tax-paying company that organises all of our activities, from ¿lm-production to merchandising and event organising, in collaboration with many institutions such as Bumi Sehat who work with health and birthing, listen online to our old song Mother and Child! SN: A large group of international writers enjoyed your panel at Ubud Writers & Readers Festival last year. Can you tell us of any palpable results that have come out of this connection with local and international writers?
C/U/G-4 Feb. 15
RN: I attended other panels at the festival and found them inspiring. Discussions with many individuals of good intention, experience and ideas are always worthwhile. Not only did I share ideas, I also gained new perspective and bene¿ted from listening. My co-panelists, Made Bayak, who brings awareness to issues of waste through his workshops creating art with rubbish, and Celia Gregory, who does underwater sculpture to regenerate coral, using beauty to move people to action, both inspired me and taught me a lot. I also have a lot of respect for our moderator, Suzy Hutomo, owner of Body Shop Indonesia. We ourselves merchandise non-palm oil soap. Susi’s company use RSPO (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil) in very few of their products—certi¿ed palm-oil from trade-aid sources outside Indonesia, to reduce pressure on Indonesian forests, promoting a more sustainable production of the oil. SN: Do you have any further message for our readers? RN: Do what you love and love what you do. Good change can happen nowadays through collaboration. The real hero is an ordinary man doing small things with great passion. Disappointment, happiness, sadness; balance can be found in the midst of all those feelings. Anger is a passion, but I don’t shout because I am angry, I shout because it’s Rock ‘n’ Roll. Ubud Writers & Readers Festival will take place October 28 – November 1, 2015, celebrating 17,000 Islands of Imagination. For more information, head to www. ubudwritersfestival.com C/U/G-21 Jan. 15

Turmeric -- A Pharmacy in a Glass
There’s a lot of buzz these days about turmeric (Curcuma longa). This pungent orange rhizome, locally known as kunyit, is a common backyard culinary herb in Bali. It’s been widely claimed that curcumin, the active ingredient of turmeric, can cure everything from depression to cancer. The anecdotal evidence has been sufficient to convince medical researchers around the world to explore its healing properties.

Much research has been undertaken for cancer. According to Cancer Research UK, “A number of laboratory studies on In Indonesia, where 40% of the population earn under $2 a cancer cells have shown that curcumin does have anticancer day and there is only one doctor per 5,000 people, effects.

Wherever turmeric grows, local wisdom honours it as a potent medicine that strengthens the liver, purifies the blood, improves circulation, aids digestion, protects the body against intestinal parasites and acts as a general tonic. The darker the colour of the root, the better the quality. Turmeric’s cousins are also traditional remedies in Bali. Kencur grows flat against the ground and has a pretty mauve and white flower. Ground up with rice, it’s used as a poultice for everything from sprains to fever. It feels cool going on, then heats up amazingly on the skin. Culinary ginger root is used internally. Taken as a tea it settles nausea and promotes digestion. This is a great remedy for morning sickness and also assists in the discomfort of eating too many beans.

So there. Test tube and animal studies have been promising for a number of illnesses, but clinical trials on humans are challenging because of curcumin’s apparent low bioavailability when taken orally; the active element shows only low concentrations in the blood and tissue. Now experiments are underway to “...design and develop nanoscale delivery systems of curcumin and scientists have developed injectable, fat soluble forms of curcumin which may improve the results.” Actually the results seem to be just fine, the scientist just need to know why. Although blind human trials suggest that oral curcumin administration may not effectively deliver curcumin to tissues outside the gastrointestinal tract, many patients experienced improvement after treatment with curcumin even though it was not detected in the body. It occurs to me that perhaps it transforms from curcumin into another compound within the body? Something is certainly working, even if frustrated scientists can’t find it! Bioavailability,indeed.
Evidence of turmeric’s healing ability is not just anecdotal. Research on turmeric is vast; one source claims the herb has been the subject of over 5,600 peer-reviewed and published biomedical studies. I’ll cite just a handful here to Toxicity studies show that turmeric is not harmful even in high give an indication of the level of interest medical researchers doses over long periods of time (up to 8 grams/day for three are taking in this humble root.

The Imitation Game During WW11, the Germans had something called the Enigma machine. This was a devise which transmitted military intelligence in complicated codes considered to be unbreakable. The English War Office asks a prominent mathematician, Alan Turing, to head up a team to crack the German codes. Turing is a strange anti-social genius, not well liked by his co-workers, but, together, they undertake the challenge. Morten Tyldum makes an absorbing movie, as he follows Turing and his team in what seems to be an impossible task. Tyldum also makes some extraordinary revelations about Turing’s private life, and, the appalling treatment he was to eventually receive from the British authorities. Benedict Cumberbatch gives a fantastic performance, as the man believed to be the father of modern-day computers. Big Eyes Tim Burton’s latest movie is not another fairytale, and, instead, is based on a series of real life events. Margaret Ulbrich was an American artist, who came up with the images of waif children with big crying eyes. However, Margaret was a bit naïve and unsure of herself. She was married to a man who was a con-artist. He convinced her that the public was uninterested in works by female artists, and, that it would be better that he took the credit for her paintings. As things progressed, the Big Eyes paintings proved to be enormously popular in the 1960s. Soon, a massive fortune had accumulated from the sale of the paintings. Intellectual Ownership became a key issue in their quickly crumbling marriage. Burton makes an interesting movie, which looks at some important issues in the art world, such as: Women in art, High art versus Low art, and, the role of the art critic. Amy Adams gives a really good performance as the artist, who has to learn how to stand up for herself. Esio Trot In this absolutely delightful movie, a mature-aged man, living in a flat in an apartment building in London, is madly in love with the mature-aged woman who lives in a flat below him. However, this woman only has eyes for her pet tortoise. She is worried that it is not putting on weight. The man comes up with an ingenious plan for the tortoise to increase its size. Hopefully, this will make the woman eternally grateful, and, he can declare his undying love for her. There can be no doubt that Dustin Hoffman and Judi Dench enjoyed making this movie. Both give thoroughly endearing performances. Also, English director Dearbhla Walsh brings to the screen all of the warmth and charm that you would expect to find, in an adaptation of a Roald Dahl novel.

movie will rest on how much you enjoy watching a depiction of the angst of a failing artist. Whiplash Enjoyment of this movie will also depend on how much you like watching a tyrannical musical teacher berate a student drummer. There is really nothing much more to the plot. A music teacher runs a fairly tight school orchestra, and, if the music students don’t deliver exceptional performances, they must endure his sarcastic tongue. An ambitious student drummer chooses to defy the teacher, and, suffers the consequences. This is another movie which has garnered critical acclaim, but, it is really only for the fans of Big Band Jazz. Into The Woods* It has taken over 20 years for Stephen Sondheim’s fantasy operetta to come to the screen. You have to wonder if it was worth the wait. Basically, there is nothing wrong with the movie. Rob Marshall has put together a nicely crafted musical. It has terrific production values, and, the musical is performed by a first rate cast, all at the peak of their talents. The problem with the movie is the plot. Do adults, today, really want to watch a rehash of four Grimm Brothers fairytales, all jumbled up together into some sort of reinvented mythology of the classic fables? Up to you. Your choice. Still, this is not to deny the beautiful music and lyrics of Stephen Sondheim. Electric Slide A man obsessed with 60s style, stars robbing banks. He is very well-dressed.

HECTOR’S A Tale of Two Statues The new style of Bali’s fixation with monumental ornamentation, as seen in the grossly huge and garishly illuminated nightly by circus-style flashing lights “monkey mountain” that has been erected at the junction of Prof Ida Bagus Mantra Bypass and I Gusti Ngurah Rai Bypass just south of Tohpati, is certainly a distraction to drivers. That’s about the kindest thing you could say about it. It’s true that after a while it fails to totally shock – the brain is adept at repressing all manners of vast unpleasantness – but we can personally attest that for the first several times this visionary excrescence comes suddenly into view one is auto-prompted to utter loudly a crudely pejorative four-letter word before asking (audibly or otherwise, and rhetorically of course) “What on earth is that?” Fortunately the future of world-class Balinese stone craftsmanship is in safe hands in other areas. Gianyar regency sculptor Ongky Wijana, for instance, has recently completed a work that will honour the mining heritage of the little town of Laxey in the Isle of Man, one among the Queen’s possessions that has never been incorporated into the United Kingdom. Wijana’s wife Hannah Black, an art editor and designer, is from the Isle of Man, which is in the Irish Sea roughly equidistant from the Irish and Scottish coasts and a little further from the nearest bits of England and Wales. That’s the connection. He has spent quite a lot of time there (he tells us he loves the weather; but he is a very polite gentleman) and got the commission after he was spotted practising his art amid the chill gales of winter as a good way of keeping warm. It was a nearly year-long task – thankfully this was performed warmly in Bali – to create the statue from a 5000kg block of stone from Ireland and four pieces of Welsh slate. The finished work left Bali in early January and is due to be unveiled at Laxey on May 23.
A Hundred Shades of Grey We’re not sure of the actual numbers (we were having far too much fun to count heads) but it’s in the nature of seventieth birthday parties to produce fi elds of grey wherever the eye might fall. And so it was at The Santosa in Senggigi, Lombok, on Jan. 17, when former leading South Australian and federal Labor politician Peter Duncan had his big bash. We flew over for the occasion and caught up with some old friends, including Barbara Cahyadi of the Lombok Guide who, because she’s a she, can legitimately crawl away and dye. She didn’t look grey at all. But then she’s nowhere near seventy either. Septuagenarian status in this context is a privilege shared only by itinerant scribblers and former politicians. Duncan says it was not his idea, and we believe him, but The Santosa had erected a very visible backdrop behind the music stage that loudly (in the visual sense) congratulated “Mr Peter Owner of Taman Restaurant” on his birthday, which was on Jan. 1. It displayed a photographic representation of the present Mr Peter and another of the former political artist as a young man. Well, a very much younger man. This is why we keep our family album under virtual lock and key. Duncan wore white for the night. His lovely wife Wiwik Pusparini had given him the outfit for his birthday. It was the evening’s one disappointment. Duncan had hinted earlier that he might, in his opening remarks, say that this was a great moment to appear in his birthday suit. Sadly, he flaked on that. He did make an excellent point in his little address, however. He noted that if he’d held his big bash in Queensland, Australia, all his guests would have risked arrest. Among them were two members of bikie gangs. The Queensland government has outlawed any gathering at which more than one bikie is present. They like their paranoia by the shovelful in Bananaland.
Hang on a Tic! The endemic political Tourette’s syndrome and OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder) that afflict Indonesia can be entertaining.

The real Tourette’s, a debilitating and limiting neurological condition, and OCB, an anxiety disorder, are involuntary medical conditions. The non-medical and characteristically self-inflicted political variants of these sad conditions are not. They are elective and risible.

They are prevalent in many places, globally, including within the Australian political class. Last year the government announced that fi ve countries would get visa-free entry for short-term visitors. These countries were Australia, China, South Korea, Japan and Russia. In 2014 Australian arrivals to Bali, totalled 991,024, which was 26.3 percent of all visitors. Among the countries awarded free visa status from 2015, China last year sent us 586,197 tourists, a more than 50 percent increase; South Korea 106,774 (to Sep.), making it our sixth largest market; Japan, once our biggest market, fell to fourth place with not much hope of any marked improvement in the short term; and Russian arrivals fell 10 percent (to Sep.) due to unfortunate circumstances at home and the collapse of the rouble. Malaysia, which was never on the free visa list, was our third-largest market in 2014 with 224,962 arrivals.

Now Australia has been dumped from the list of those whose travelling citizenry is to be excused the tedious business of being tickled for US$35 on arrival. Officially this is because the free visa arrangements require reciprocity (and that would certainly be sensible on the basis of a short-stay holiday and a return ticket, should anyone in Canberra feel interested enough to notice). But since Australia was on the original list and now isn’t, it seems safe to assume that the move is political. In the words of Coordinating Maritime Affairs Minister Indroyono Soesilo: “For Australians, the visa on arrival is enough.” Perhaps he means that US$34,685,840 is nice pocket-money. But what Indonesia has just said to its potential one-millionplus-a-year Australian tourists, its largest market, is, “Welcome to Bali. Sod off.” What needs to be understood in Jakarta and Denpasar is that there are now many other places in the region that offer Australian tourists holiday experiences with free visas, less expense, less inconvenience, and better facilities. As blogger of note Vyt Karazija observed, it’s that shoot first, shout later thing: Ready! Fire! Aim...
Move Along Now... No doubt Bali will give its famous blank stare response to the recent decision of the Supreme Court of India to uphold a ban on cock-fighting in the Hindu state of Andhra Pradesh. An action to overturn the ban on cultural grounds was opposed by Humane Society International, which told the court: “These cruel practices are against the law and should not be conducted under the garb of tradition. These events are nothing but gambling events.” In Bali, cock-fighting is ubiquitous. Only the blind or the beneficially suborned would suggest gambling is not. Blood sacrifice is integral to both Balinese and Indian Hindu rites but the question is whether a religious validation of cruelty extends to death sports for gain. Animal activists are working (in the case of the Bali Animal Welfare Association, with IFAW, the International Fund for Animal Welfare) to educate communities in animal welfare and animal rights.
Interesting Thought Waiting for a delayed flight can have benefits, not the least of them the chance to drink even more coffee. So it was when we flew back from Lombok to Bali on Jan. 18 after a weekend visit for a party (see above) and two lovely nights at Sudamala Suites and Villas on the beach at Mangsit north of Senggigi. The benefit in this case came at our second coffee stop, after we discovered by the sort of osmosis required to obtain accurate information from anyone in Indonesia, that our Wings flight would be leaving 90 minutes late.

We were at the Dante’s outlet in the departure area and had switched off the smart phone to conserve its pathetic battery capacity. In an effort to delay terminal boredom, the eye wandered around the establishment’s many promotional billboards and found a reward. One of these colourful eye-catchers was offering Brazilian Lemon. We wondered, briefly and indelicately, if that was a lemon with the zest shaved off. Email Hector at hector.mcsquawky@yahoo.com or tweet with him on Twitter @ scratchings.

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH
By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.
HEALTH IN THE NEWS Both Japanese Encephalitis (JE) and Listeriosis have hit the local news this week, with 2 infants on the West of the Island in a critical condition after contracting JE, and batches of imported apples from the USA being taken from the shelves after the have been found to be contaminated by Listeriosis. So why are we worried?
JAPANESE ENCEPHALITIS. What Is Japanese Encephalitis? J.E. is a serious viral illness that affects the brain. It primarily affects children between the ages of 2 – 10 years, the elderly, or individuals with lowered immune systems. Case fatality rates range from 0.3 – 60% (average 30 %), and approximately 30% of those survivors will be brain damaged in some way. How does Japanese Encephalitis present? Some people that are exposed to the disease will have very mild, or no symptoms at all. Those that suffer severe acute infection would show any or all of the following signs: • Abrupt onset of high fever. • Headache. • Loss of appetite. • Pain behind the eyes. • Neck stiffness • Disorientation or stupor, convulsions or twitches / tremors. • Coma, paralysis. PERSONS EXHIBITING ANY OF THE ABOVE SYMPTOMS MUST SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY. How do people get Japanese Encephalitis? J.E. is spread by vector transmission, the Culex Mosquito being the carrier. It cannot be transmitted directly from one person to the next, (i.e. you cannot get it from touching or kissing an infected person). Feeding on pigs or wild birds infected with the J.E virus infects mosquitoes; the virus is then transmitted to humans during the feeding process. The Culex mosquito typically inhabits rice paddies, and other waterways. This mosquito is essentially an outdoor mosquito, and they are most active in the late evenings or at night. Not all Culex Mozzies are carriers of the disease. Only mosquitoes that have been infected can infect you. Don’t invite this troublesome insect into your area by providing it with ideal breeding grounds. The Vaccine. A vaccine is available against the J.E. virus; however there are a few problems with this. Firstly the vaccine is very expensive. There have been nasty side effects reported following injection with the J.E. Vaccine. About 0.6 % of patients have developed severe rashes and swelling immediately after the vaccine and up to 10 days after receiving the vaccine. It is wise therefore to remain close to medical facilities for up to 10 days after the last dose. The good news is that the vaccine has a high efficacy. This means that once the course has been completed, it gives a high (almost 100%) immunogenic response. It is very effective. The current J.E. vaccine schedule is a course of 3 shots on days 0, 7 & 30. Protection following the primary course of the vaccine is said to last approximately 2 years, therefore most authorities recommend single booster shots at 2 year intervals following the primary course. Should everyone in Bali get this vaccine? Hmmm. Questionable, however if you live next door to a pig farm or a bird sanctuary I would consider it.
LISTERIOSIS. What is listeriosis? Listeriosis, or listeria infection, is an illness that may result from eating food contaminated with bacteria known as listeria monocytogenes.
C/He/I-10 Dec 14
Who is at risk? Most people eat foods every day, which contain very small amounts of listeria without apparent adverse effects. Good hygienic food practices in the home and commercial food premises can minimize the risk from these bacteria. The infection may cause few or no symptoms in healthy people, but can cause serious illness to an unborn child. The death rate in foetuses and newborn babies affected by listeria has ranged from 30 to 50 per cent. Other people at risk include the elderly and those whose immune system has been weakened by disease or drug treatment, for example diabetics, cancer and transplant patients and people who are HIV positive. People with a history of alcohol abuse are also at risk. The risk of infection is greatest when foods are not adequately heat-treated or are stored for long periods in a refrigerator. Listeriosis can be successfully treated with antibiotics if treatment is commenced early. What are the symptoms? Healthy people, including pregnant woman, may show few or no symptoms vary from minor complaints such as fever, headache, aches and pains, vomiting and diarrhea to more serious forms of the illness such as meningitis (brain infection) and septicaemia (blood poisoning).
C/He/G-4 Feb. 15
Where is listeria found? Listeria is widespread in nature and is commonly found in soil, vegetation and sewage. It has also been found in raw meat, raw vegetables and unpasteurized milk & milk products. Some exposure to these bacteria is unavoidable. Good Food Hygiene You can reduce the risk of listeriosis and other food-borne illness by taking appropriate precautions. • Keep uncooked meats covered and separate from cooked food and ready-to-eat food. • Always store raw meat and poultry below other foods in your refrigerator to prevent it dripping onto cooked and ready-to-eat food. • Wash hands, knives and cutting boards after handling uncooked foods to avoid cross contamination of cooked and ready to eat foods. • Thoroughly wash raw vegetables before eating. • Thoroughly cook all food of animal origin, including eggs. • Keep hot foods hot (above 60 C) and cold foods cold (at or below 5 C) • Strictly observe “ use by “ or “ best by “ dates on refrigerated foods. • Keep the refrigerator clean and ensure the temperature is maintained below 5 C • Thoroughly reheat food till piping hot. • Avoid raw (unpasteurized) milk or food made from raw milk.

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY Traditionally men and women give their lover a gift for Valentine’s Day, usually a card, red roses, chocolate or perhaps jewellery. This year, do something special together by going to Taksu Spa in Ubud to indulge in some pampering while improving your health. My partner and I recently went and surrendered our bodies for four hours of bliss. After checking in at reception and selecting massage oil and having the treatments we would be indulging in explained to us, we were escorted to the tastefully decorated new couple’s room on the hill. We also got our workout for the day descending and climbing the multitude of stairs winding through the enormous spa constructed on both sides of a stunning ravine with a river running through it. I think this may be the largest spa in central Ubud with spectacular views throughout. Our day of felicity began with an hour long Balinese massage, expertly delivered by two charming Balinese ladies, taking care of our shoulder injuries and easing all of the tension from our muscles. I was delighted that this massage includes an excellent neck massage. Fully relaxed, we slipped into the hot bubbling water of the Jacuzzi in the adjoining cascading waterfall room and settled in enjoying the comfort for two persons. Shortly afterwards, one of our practitioners delivered a small tray holding two glasses of sparkling wine and a plate of beautifully decorated dark and white chocolate covered strawberries. She announced that we could spend up to 40 minutes enjoying ourselves then discretely disappeared from the room. Clinking our glasses we toasted our love, looking into one another’s eyes in gratitude of this precious time we were spending together. It was impossible to resist the tempting chocolates on the edge of the tub, divine decadence is the only way to describe them. After luxuriating in the bubbling warm water for awhile, we climbed out and prepared for our next treatment.

as ozone and steam flowed into the box. Without anything to do except stare at the bamboo wallpaper on the opposite wall, she sat in front of me and read all of the benefits of this treatment: detoxifying, oxygenation of all the tissues, organs and cells of the body to stimulate the release of anti-cancer substances from the white blood cells of the immune system and enhance blood and oxygen delivery throughout the body. By adding ozone to the steam, the ozone is easily absorbed into the skin and lymphatic system which detoxify, destroy infections and stimulate circulation through the open pores. The toxins are released from sweating and are immediately neutralized by the ozone.

Later she held up a ceramic coconut filled with coconut water for me to sip through a bamboo straw to rehydrate me, informing me that this is the best drink for rehydration as its properties are closest to our own blood plasma. I asked if this is a popular treatment and she told me that many people come just for this, especially healers who know the healing benefits of ozone. I was advised not to take a shower for the next 8 hours, so simply dried off the sweat with a fluffy towel and got dressed. The ozone had destroyed the bacteria on my skin so I smelled fresh and clean.
After four hours of blissful pampering we felt quite hungry and went outdoors to the garden cafe to indulge in some of Taksu Restaurant’s yummy healthy food and drinks. With a large selection of raw, vegan, vegetarian, seafood, duck and chicken appetisers, main courses and desserts, it was difficult W e d e s c e n d e d to choose.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch •
A different Take on Trust You may have noticed that many people here promise something but easily break their promise. This could be a friend visiting, turning up to work, completing an order, turning up on time, or simply turning up. In some cultures, like Japan for example, not keeping your word can have automatic dire consequences: you could lose a friend, a reputation, a job, and even a potential career.

Sure, in other cultures we may not keep our promises on occasion, but, unlike Bali, it’s not an unwritten rule. Here it’s as if not keeping a promise – being unreliable or worse still not trustworthy – is something that is a lot more relaxed, in fact considered the norm. While people from other cultures may get angry and potentially cut off ties with or fire someone on the spot for being unreliable, somewhat philosophically Balinese tend to come up with an explanation to justify someone’s absence. A no-show at work could be due to ‘the rain’, ‘a flat tyre’, ‘sickness’, ‘a ceremony’ or ‘period pains’. Not turning up to a less formal arrangement could be due to ‘a banjar meeting’, ‘a ceremony’ or ‘exam season’. The reasons are potentially endless of course, with the banjar and ceremonies being more unique to Bali, and in the big cultural context these are the ones which are harder to argue with. Even though people in other cultures are sometimes unreliable, there is a key difference: communication. While mobile devices and social media are great for selfies and updating status, surprise-surprise they also can be used for communication. While this revelation sinks in, we can all have fun making up a plethora of excuses for no-shows.

After living here for so long, I find myself catching the unreliability bug too – making excuses in my own head for a broken promise. For me, it’s the regret that’s hard to shake off. Perhaps feelings of regret are more in-ground in Western cultures.

Colds, the ‘Flu & Pneumonia From everyday scourge to pandemic
Most of us take our lungs for granted. We think of them as an autonomous part of our respiratory system which can pretty much take care of themselves, except in the case of lung cancer, which we either put down to genetic bad luck or the risks we knowingly defy if we were or are heavy smokers. Unless you are very young or very old, such respiratory insouciance is understandable, if not entirely justified. Colds are a minor inconvenience, something we just have to live with and get over; the ‘flu is more unpleasant, but most of us don’t get it that often; and pnumonia may have been a deadly killer 60 years ago but, if we are unfortunate enough to get it seriously, nowadays a short spell in hospital sorts it out. If I am correct in my summary, is such a view justified? In the case of pneumonia most definitiely not. Maybe, just maybe, if you are young, strong and healthy, with a ferociously functioning immune system and never get sick, such confidence could be warranted, but I think not. Alas, we all age and even the fittest of us can become vulnerable and open to infection. The thing about our lungs is, that once damaged it is hard to recover fully, you become increasingly vulnerable to lung disease and opportunistic infection, to the extent that even the simplest head cold can lead to serious, if not lifethreatening infection if not promptly treated. It is also true that antibiotics, once so effective, are becoming a lot less so in the face of the superbugs, not only out there in the world at large but stalking the corridors, wards and emergency units of our most modern hospitals. So even if you are fit and strong, spare a thought for your hard working lungs. And, for those prone to respiratory infection, do all you can to build up your immune system so you don’t catch a cold or the ‘flu or recover quickly when you do. Conventional wisdom holds that there’s not much you can do to prevent colds and ‘flus— and even less you can do to treat them. You can, of course, get a flu shot, but research suggests they aren’t nearly as effective as many believe. OTC remedies like antihistamines, decongestants, and NSAIDs can suppress some of the symptoms that may in theory delay or prevent the conditioning from worsening, but they do not prevent them or shorten their duration. And while antibiotics may be necessary in certain cases (severe sinus infection), they don’t treat the viral infections that cause colds and flus. There are, though, steps you can take to strengthen your immune system that decrease the chances of getting sick in the first place and that help reduce the intensity and duration of any cold or ‘flu. Here are seven that may help.
Juice (or grate on fine setting) 1–2 lbs ginger; place juice in jar and refrigerate. Place 2–4 oz ginger juice in mug with juice 1/2 lemon and large tbsp honey(honey is anti-viral). Add 1/8 tspn cayenne pepper and 6 oz hot water. Drink 2–6 cups of this a day, sipping slowly throughout the day While it’s possible to do this without a juicer, it takes a lot longer. You can get pretty good juicers for less than $100, so if you or someone in your family suffers from frequent colds/flus, a juicer is a worthwhile investment (and of course it has many other uses). Wash your hands & Wear a Mask A no-brainer, surely? Frequent handwashing is vitally important in protecting ourselves against colds, the ‘flu and infection generally. Wash hands every time you arrive at a destination while out and about, and first thing when you get home. If you are vulnerable to lung infection, don’t be shy… wear a mask when traveling and carry one with you at all times to put on in any public place where sneezers and people with colds or worse may congregate. Avoid second hand tobacco smoke like the plague and insist directions on smoking are followed in public places.

Take elderberry syrup Elderberry is truly one of the most effective botanicals for strengthening immune function, preventing colds and flu. Consider seriously having it in your medical cupboard at all times. Take 1 tspn 2 x p/day if you feel you’re coming down with cold or flu and continue taking it if you do get sick. Take immune-boosting herbs There are several botanicals with potent immune-boosting effect recommended for prevention during cold season: Mix equal parts astragalus, cordyceps & rhodiola in tincture form. Take up to 1/4 tspn 3x/d for prevention & 1/2 tspn up to 6x/d if already sick. Note: astragalus, cordyceps and rhodiola are “immune boosting” botanicals, people with autoimmune diseases involving overactive immune response should consult their doctor before using them.
Take anti-viral herbs If you have finally succumbed to cold or flu, there are a number of anti-viral herbs that can help. A good book to learn more about this is Stephen Buhner’s, Herbal Antivirals: Natural Remedies for Emerging & Resistant Viral Infections. Here’s his recommendation for treating mild influenza and colds: • Mix 2 parts lomatium, 2 parts red root, 2 parts licorice, 1 part isatis (all tincture form). • Take 30–60 drops mixed with 1–2 oz. water each hour until condition improves. If you have trouble finding some of these botanicals Load up on immune-boosting nutrients locally, you should consult a good local naturopath or There are micronutrients essential for immune health. other qualified person.

- especially by dogs and other animals - to identify people. Each person’s unique body odor can be inÀuenced by diet, gender, health, and medication. Deodorant in general is a product designed only to control odor. Some types of deodorant are also antiperspirants, or will be labeled as both antiperspirant and deodorant. This is an important distinction because a deodorant alone will generally not stop someone from sweating. Antiperspirants, on the other hand, are designed to prevent sweating. These products almost always contain some type of aluminum that causes a slight swelling of the pores to prevent sweat from reaching the surface of the skin.
Here’s some other ideas that can help keep you smelling fresh : 1. Watch what you eat. Certain foods have the potential to make our sweat more pungent. A diet high in the red meat increases body odor as does curry, garlic, and other spicy foods. 2. Shave your underarms. If you have a lot of hair under your arms, it slows the evaporation of sweat so that you have more bacteria. 3. Wear breathable clothing. Natural ¿bers (linen, silk, cotton, light wool like merino) can breathe and decrease sweating. Also some of the high-tech ¿bers wick away moisture. Many exercise clothing now offer high-tech fabric that wicks away moisture from the body, so bacteria doesn’t have a chance to get at the sweat. C/He/I-25 June 14
Natural remedies to prevent body odor Deodorant comes in a variety of different formulas and methods of application. The most common types of deodorant come in solid stick, gel, roll-on, liquid, cream, powder and spray formulas. Natural deodorant is another option that may come in all those different styles or in a stone or mineral form that is rubbed on the underarms. Most deodorant is usually only designed to control odor, but some types of deodorant also include antiperspirant ingredients that help stop sweating and wetness.
• Wipe rubbing alcohol, vinegar or hydrogen peroxide onto your underarms during the day to cut down the numbers of odor-causing bacteria. Vinegar, whether it’s apple cider or white, can help lower the pH level of the skin for an antibacteria environment. It’s best to splash the vinegar under the arms when you get out of the shower, but not immediately after you have shaved your underarms. This is safe for the skin as long as it’s unbroken. It’s best to do a test on a small patch of skin to make sure you do not react badly.
Stick and powder deodorants are generally considered “dry” deodorants because they typically do not leave the skin wet after they are applied. Products in stick form are generally solid white or clear deodorants that are rubbed on the armpits. Powder deodorant is
• Dab on witch hazel and tea tree oil. You can splash it directly on your skin or apply it as often as necessary with a cotton pad. The clear, clean-smelling liquid has drying and deodorizing properties. Witch hazel and tea tree oil are natural sterilizers that can be applied on your armpits, since they are natural antiseptics. They lower the skin’s pH, which

made of the same types of ingredients as stick deodorant but without the silicone or fatty substances that bind them together.
• Dust baking soda or cornstarch on any odour-troubled part of your body. Both of these powders absorb moisture, and baking soda also kills odor-causing bacteria.
Gel deodorant is applied in a similar way as the stick varieties but comes in a thick gel that is pushed up through holes or slits in the cap.

SCHEDULE THAT Beringer Wine Dinner (7 February) As the New Year passes it leaves routine and regularity and the Bali events calendar starts to take shape again. It has been a while since I have scheduled a wine evening and this is one occasion not to be missed. This time it is at the Laguna Luxury Collection Resort in Nusa Dua. Chef Aris Supriyanto will prepare a five course feast to pair with six special wines from Beringer. Beringer was founded in 1876 and is the oldest operating winery in the Napa Valley of California. First Sommelier, Yudhi Suryawan will co-host this event with Nicole Carter, the vice present and public relations of Beringer Vineyards who has plenty of knowledge and information to share about this fine winery. The evening begins with cocktails and canapés at the Arwana Terrace Bar followed by dinner. The menu is simply mouth watering and boasts delights such as fresh oysters from the Pacific served with mango relish. Tasmanian house-smoked salmon, Alaskan king crab and slow braised duck and Black Angus beef are just some of the dishes that compliment the wines. Each course showcases what this winery has to offer. This is a fabulous evening, particularly for a special occasion and the price is reasonable for a sumptuous affair. When Cost Where Contact

I have horrible stories of family and friends who have smoked their whole life and it is not until their later years that the suffering truly begins as a direct result of smoking. Nasty and for the women out there who can’t afford skin treatment, the lines it causes for me would be enough to want to give up. Not to mention the cough smokers have and who are diluded enough to think that something else is causing that awful cough. In a democratic society it is a choice and one that I am glad I never made and I do feel for friends who have tried to quit so desperately and then given in and started smoking again. For those who are in need of help to kick the habit, Alan Bates will lead this one day seminar to help you do so. As Alan points out, to give up smoking can be an enormous challenge which only ex-smokers know how difficult it is. Smoking in most countries is banned in enclosed public places and I know that from October smoking will be banned in cars travelling with children in the UK. However, in Indonesia smoking is prevalent and of course very cheap. It is habitual too. Alan Bates shows how you can give up naturally using the power of the mind. Do come along and find out how you can kick this habit. There are only 30 places and with a few spaces to fill call to reserve your spot. Imagine, leaving and never smoking again. Think of the money you will save, particularly if you are from a country where cigerettes are taxed so highly. The most important thing though is your health and well being. When Cost Where Contact

Valentine’s Day Dinner International Women’s Day (6 March) Valentine’s Day is always a wonderful opportunity to celebrate romance, marriage and relationships in general. I am sure that there are plenty more Valentine’s dinners offered around town but this evening caught my eye. A trio of musicians will add to the romance of the evening by playing a few romantic tunes. Guests can enjoy a four course meal with two glasses of sparkly included for the occasion. Dining under the stars is always special and I am sure those who attend will have a very romantic evening at the La Cucina Restaurant. Do book as these dinners are popular.

AFL NEWS
That Bali icon, the infamous end of season footy tour to Bali, is now the subject of legal stoush in Victoria,Australia.In one corner the assistant coach of AFL club Essendon,and good friend of the Bali Geckos, Matthew Egan who has launched legal action for damages and costs from medical staff of the AFL club, he previously played for, Geelong in the other corner. In reply the medical staff defend themselves by declaring that the Egan did not follow doctors orders and rest his leg, and instead was involved in various activities in Bali including dancing that aggravated the injury. Egan sustained a navicular fracture in, 2007, and was delisted in 2009 after six further surgeries failed to get him fit to play again. As reported by the Geelong Advertiser, in defence documents lodged with the court, Geelong medical staff Dr Bradshaw and Mr Blackney deny the allegations and argue “if there was any negligence or breach of agreement ... the plaintiff [Egan] was contributorily negligent”. “On or about 18 or 19 September 2007 [Dr Bradshaw] advised the plaintiff to cease rehabilitation aimed at participating in the 2007 Australia Football League Grand Final and advised him to immobilise the right foot,” defence documents for Dr Bradshaw state. “He failed to heed advice to remain nonweight bearing or alternatively in a CAM (Controlled Ankle Movement) walker during an end-of-season player’s holiday to Bali,” defence documents for Mr Blackney state. “He performed activities which resulted him in weight-bearing on his right foot or taking off his CAM walker, including dancing, while on the Bali holiday contrary to medical advice.” Lawyers for Dr Bradshaw stated Egan’s September 26, 2007, X-ray show the foot had not been adversely affected by the accelerated rehabilitation program with no screws bent or “obviously loosened” ahead of the October team trip to Bali. Both medical professionals will also argue Egan was told the injury may be career-ending in May 2008 and it is now too late to legally take action. “Playing with Geelong, he [Egan] would have played finals football and more than likely been a premiership player,” Egan’s lawyer Nick Mann said in August. “He would have established a significant career as an AFL footballer. “That has been lost to him because of
the treatment he received.” Supreme Court Associate Justice Daly has ordered the parties mediate the dispute before June 30, though a trial is listed to start on September 16 if the matter cannot be resolved.

Beach Cricket would be able to globalize the game of cricket to new boundaries thereby aligning itself with the International Cricket Council’s (ICC) vision of the development of the game. Beach Cricket would also encourage youths to engage in outdoor sporting activities thereby further exposing a new target audience. With a wider base of social classes readily available at coastal locations, Beach Cricket would therefore engage people from a variety of backgrounds. Hence Beach Cricket Worldwide (BCW) was started. And joins with Bali Sports Foundation for the 2nd Bali Beach Games.Open to all teams, please contact info@balisports.com.So far teams from Thailand, Singapore and Jakarta have entered.

Local News Heather Mack and Tommy Schaefer on Trial over Bali Body in Suitcase
Ministry Introducing Gas Fuel for Vehicles The Environment Ministry for the Bali and Nusa Tenggara
The man who allegedly bludgeoned his girlfriend’s mother to death with a fruit bowl in a Bali hotel and then stuffed her body into a suitcase has been indicted for premeditated murder. The trial of the grisly case, which has become known as the “Bali body in the suitcase murder”, began in Denpasar District Court on Wednesday (14/1). The dead woman’s daughter, who is seven months pregnant, has also been indicted for assisting premeditated murder. The pair could face the firing squad if found guilty and the maximum penalty is invoked.
However, things didn’t come to a head until a holiday at the St Regis luxury resort in Nusa Dua, Bali last year.

The court heard a fight ensued with Ms Von Wiese Mack screaming at Schaefer that he was “just a nigger”. Although initially laughing off the insult, Schaefer then allegedly grabbed the handle of the fruit bowl and swung it at his girlfriend’s mother.
The court heard Chicago woman Sheila Von Wiese Mack, 62, opposed the relationship between her teenage daughter, Heather Mack, and her lover Tommy Schaefer.
The court heard Heather Mack ran to the bathroom but Schaefer continued raining blows on Ms Von Wiese Mack until she stopped moving.
Prosecutor Eddy Arta Wijaya said Heather Mack had asked Schaefer while still in the United States to find someone willing to kill her mother for $US50,000.
The court heard they stuffed Ms Von Wiese Mack’s body into the suitcase. Heather Mack sat on the suitcase so her boyfriend could close it. (January 15th 2015).
Bali Nine Member Andrew Chan Warns Others after Bid for Clemency Rejected
forward a program to introduce LPG gas to fuel vehicles was launched last December, aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 26% by 2020. “With vehicles using emissions will be reduced making for cleaner air on the Island,” said Novrizal Tahar, the Head of the Ministery for Bali and Nusa Tenggara. According to Tahar, Bali is currently well below the targets set forth by the Environment Ministry and with the growth of automobile registrations at 7% per year, it is vital that the program is implemented. (January 15th 2015) Toll Road Fees Set to Increase The Ministry of Public-Works has announced plans to reassess toll road fees across Indonesia. The Bali Mandara Toll Road will most certainly rise in 2015. Jasamarga Bali Head of Public Relations, Drajat Hari Suseno, confirmed to Tribune News that toll road fares would go up in 2015, but was unable to specify by exactly how much the fare would increase. Suseno added that the
Bali Nine drug smuggler Andrew Chan, who is awaiting execution by firing squad, has penned a powerful letter to his 15-year-old self, warning of the stupidity of his actions.
embraced by those I love and who I miss. Most likely, I won’t have the chance to see such things such as the birth of my first child, let alone have a child.
The letter features in a new documentary aimed at high school students, Dear Me: The Dangers of Drugs, in which Chan chastises himself for leading a heroin trafficking ring that has landed him on death row.
“My life is a perfect example of an absolute waste. That does not have to be for you.”
The six-page letter also addresses the teenagers of Australia to warn them off a life of drugs and crime. “I don’t know what choices you guys are making, however, if anything, I would want you guys to remember is, ‘Is it worth it?’,” he says in the film. “You are still young and you have some serious decisions to make in your life. What you choose today will make what you become tomorrow. “If you want to be a thug and a big bad wolf, I’ll see you soon inside. “But for those that want to do something in life, I’d like you guys to see how important it is to put your head down and study hard.” He laments the life he has missed out on, having been behind bars in Kerobokan prison in Bali since April 17, 2005. He was sentenced to death for leading a scheme to smuggle 8.3kg of heroin into Australia from Thailand.
Chan encourages today’s youth to seek out help, whether it be from a school counselor, a youth centre, or a church, to avoid ending up like him. The director of Dear Me, Malinda Rutter, first met Chan at Kerobokan Prison two years ago and she says he is a changed man. “Andrew Chan is a very different person to the person that was arrested,” Rutter told news.com.au.
exact amount of the fee hike would be based upon a review conducted by the Ministry of Public Works, and that the tariff increase is legally permissible under Article 46 of Law No. 38 of 2004, which allows for the adjustment of toll rates every two years. (January 22nd 2015) Bali Nine: Please No Executions on Bali Soil Bali’s pro-death penalty governor doesn’t want Australians Andrew Chan and Myuran Sukumaran executed on his island, believing it may spoil the Islands harmony. Made Mangku Pastika, a former head of Indonesia’s national narcotics agency, testified against members of the Bali Nine in a 2007 challenge of their death sentences. Then, he described drug traffickers as “mass murderers” who

been denied presidential clemency and only a last-ditch legal bid stands between them and the firing squad. Asked they want Bali to keep in harmony, remain safe, remain peaceful. So if possible, not in Bali, please.” Aussies still make up the bulk of tourists to the so-called Island of the Gods. The Australian families of Chan, 31, and Sukumaran, 33, will also arrive in Bali this week. Both families spoke on Saturday about their anguish for the Sydney men, who
“At the end of the day, I’m only 29 years old and, the truth is, I might not be able to see my 30th birthday. How many of you want to follow in my footsteps?

SANUR SCOOP Sorry Sanur folks, it’s over. No more will you keep all the Sanur secrets to yourselves. It’s time for readers in other parts of Bali to ¿nd out what’s happening in your deceptively quiet little patch. The more we investigate, the more we want to learn about what’s cooking in Sanur, so please contact Sanur Scoop with information about any new businesses, cafes, exciting events or interesting projects. Email: spacetobreathebali@gmail.com. BICYCLE TRAILS Congratulations to Eco-Sanur - not an of¿cial organisation but more a “movement” of long-term Sanur expats, working together to better Sanur’s environment - for the ¿rst of three planned of¿cial bicycle lanes through the Sanur area! The lane begins at the Eco-Sanur of¿ce at Werdhapura Hotel on Jl Danau Tamblingan, goes down to Jl Pantai Karang and along the beach path to Jl Pantai Sindu. Tourists can make a stop there at Pasar Sindu before continuing by way of Jl Pungutan to Jl Bumi Ayu, and back to Tamblingan again. This little lane is less than four kilometers long, but two more (the longest almost 2 kms) will be put in place during the coming months, with a bicycle map also planned, which will include where to rent bikes along the way. For more information, contact Antonio, phone 0811 395140. REGGAE BEACH FESTIVAL There’ll be dancing at the beach this Friday, at the 2015 Reggae Star Festival, when Bali’s most popular reggae band, Joni Agung 2T, hits the stage with Jakarta’s Rastafaradoc on Pantai Padang Galak, Kesiman. They say that although reggae music hails from Jamaica and is thick with tradition, the music is now synonymous with cooperative communities all over the world, and symbolizes togetherness and a more relaxed and friendly perspective on life. Just like Sanur!
BEST KEPT SPA SECRET Did you know that Sanur is host to one of the most respected spa training schools in the region? Founders of Bali BISA (Bali International Spa Academy) opened their school more than a decade ago, with the original intention of providing international standard spa training for the Indonesian market. Ironically, over time the school has become a premier destination for international students – both those entering the profession and any spa therapists lacking or wanting to extend their accreditation. Graduates of the latest three-month CIBTAC accredited program – assessed by a judge specially Àown out from England – came from Australia, New Zealand, Japan, Indonesia and France. Students can stay on site at homestays next to the spa school in Jl Sekuta Sanur. For enquiries and enrolment, phone 0361 281 289. Balibisa. com.

DISABLED JOBS NETWORK A couple of generations ago, my family had a disabled uncle who was considered a great embarrassment to the family, and tucked away in a little cottage in his hometown in Cornwall. Even now, people with disabilities are between two and four times more likely to be unemployed. Here, according to Suri, co-ordinator of DNetwork, some traditional Hindu families still believe that a disability is a punishment from God for something that person or a member of their family has done. Again, those with disabilities can sometimes be hidden away by their families. The story of two children found by the organisation’s ¿eld team in a remote Balinese village, is heartbreaking. www.puspadibali. org/impact/client-stories/ DNetwork focuses on ¿nding great employers in Bali who are willing to open their existing job vacancies up to people with disabilities. There are more than 300 job seekers with disabilities registered, from around Indonesia. The DNetwork website also lists available jobs and includes services offered to the public by some of the more entrepreneurial disabled people in their network. DNetwork is based at Jl. Bakung No. 19 Tohpati, Kesiman Kerthalangu. Phone 0821-47274948/ 0361-464537. www. dnetwork.net.
In Sanur, Cinta Bahasa provides group and private classes in The Sanur Space, a workspace with professional staff and a cosy atmosphere. Cinta has provided classes not only for Bali expats, but also for diplomatic missions including the German ambassador and Australian consul to Bali. Students of Indonesian language from Australian high schools and universities are also finding Cinta Bahasa’s curriculum helpful – both when they visit for intensive courses, and via online coaching prior to examinations in Australia. For more information: info@cintabahasa.com or phone 08123 916 5005. FOOD ROUND UP No space in this edition for a serious look at the great restaurants around the Sanur area. But I can tell you – sorry, as I said, the secret’s out – that I have it on very good authority that the Fire Station has some of the best steaks in town, Man FryDay is THE place to go for authentic battered ¿sh and chips, and Whitesands Café not only serve a totally swoon-remember-Mum’s-home-cooking mouthwatering beef and gravy (or chicken and gravy) roll, but owners Carolyn and Butch have to be two of the most welcoming and hospitable hosts on the island. We are very keen to try new cafes and restaurants – and old favorites with great new additions to their menus – so keep us posted, please. Email to: spacetobreathebali@ gmail.com.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia by Bill Dalton
The Art of the Lesser Sundas by A. F. Granucci The Art of the Lesser Sundas is the first book that deals comprehensively with the art of Indonesia’s southeastern islands in its entirety. Until this book, only monographs have been published on the arts of single islands or focused on a particular art tradition (usually textiles) or dealt with art pieces of individual islands in publications covering a broader framework of “Southeast Tribal Art,” such as various publications of Musee Barbier-Muller. The whole history of Lesser Sunda art is fascinating. The art of this specific region has for many years been difficult to categorize, which ultimately resulted in it being neglected and ignored. This is because of the attitude that if a Southeast Asian ethnic group hadn’t been influenced by India or China, it wasn’t worth studying. The first discoverer of the rare prehistoric stone and bronze artifacts of Indonesia’s eastern seas was Rumphius (1627-1702) during the European Age of Exploration, which kicked off an interest in the ethnography of the Lesser Sundas. Still, the scientists and explorers of the day (17th C. to 19th C.) could not bring themselves to accept these curious objects as “art.” It wasn’t until the late 19th C and early 20th C. that ethnographers accepted the archipelago’s tribal arts for their aesthetic qualities. The first European artist to visit Nusatenggara was Neiuwenkamp in 1917. The account of his journey, in which he recognized the artistic merit of the region’s strange ethnic sculptures, was published in 1925. Neiuwenkamp helped change the public’s perception that these were not just crude ethnographica but legitimate expressions of the human spirit, just as valid as any tradition of Western or Asian art. Later, when the region’s archaeology was enthusiastically reviewed in such landmark publications as Clair Holt’s Art in Indonesia, this rather abstruse field of study started to come into its own. In the 1970s and 1980s, J. P. Barbier was a pioneer in recognizing the true value of Indonesian tribal art. Characterized as “tribal,” “primitive,” even “revolting,” artifacts from the region were housed in museums of natural history. Now the extraordinary tribal art of Lesser Sunda no longer has to fight its way through the doors of art museums and galleries. Bearing a very strong family resemblance to mainstream Oceanic and Melanesian art, Lesser Sunda art gradually became accepted into the museums of the world, usually placed under the overall category of Africa, Oceania and Americas. Artistically speaking, what’s unique about Nusatenggara is that these islands remained mainly beyond the influence of the Indian civilization that had made such an impact on the Greater Sunda Islands of western Indonesia. As this lavishly illustrated book points out, in the Lesser Sundas are found the remnants of a type of art made by the first people who arrived in the archipelago from New Guinea and Australia 50,000 years ago. The book’s 63 pages of the four opening chapters is one of the best layperson’s histories of not just the artistic, cultural and tribal traditions but also the archaeology, languages, customs, migration routes, foreign contacts, economies and exchange systems of the people of the Lesser Sundas. In so doing, we get to see how the region’s great variety of peoples shares a cultural unity and long intertwined history. Though it’s not usually the preserve of art books, there’s also abundant advice on how to evaluate, categorize and trace the provenance of an article. Generally speaking, the
cruder an object looks, the further east it comes from. Absence of pinholes on a textile indicates that another cloth was once sewn on to that part of the fabric; an unfinished fringe means the cloth hasn’t been corded yet. The sheen on objects determines where they were hung or handled extensively, whether it was stored and what its ritualistic function was. The amount of wear and crystallization indicate the age of an object, while erosion shows if the object was stuck into the ground or into a pile of stones. Mud stains do not necessarily mean that the piece was not properly cared. Mud was actually the most archaic form of natural dye. The majority of the book’s 146 captivating objects have come from the author’s own collection assembled over the last three decades of the 20th C., representing some of the last traditional artifacts created in the Lesser Sundas. The bulk have been sourced from a great triangle centering on the Sawu Sea, including the Flores and Solor archipelagos and the main islands of Sumbawa, Sumba, Sawu and Roti. Because of limits of space, the conscientiously selected specimens are only a sampling of the artistic output of the area. Paging through the hundreds of pages of these marvelous and dignified objects, it is sad to think of all the bare heads, necks, arms, wrists, ankles and fingers now bereft of ornament; all the walls, doors and windows missing their splendid carved surfaces and all the household yards empty of totems, statuary and memorial stones. How much more striking would these objects be if seen in their natural settings?

The lengthy annotated bibliography is amazing! Author A. F. Granucci has spent 30 years steeped in ethnic art, hanging out with prehistorians, art historians, museum curators, antique collectors, art writers and photographers. Admittedly not an expert himself, for details concerning identification and places of origins he has relied on publications by scholars and specialists on the anthropology and archaeology of Austronesia. Not just a bare listing of sources, his assiduously assembled reading list – annotated by astute, learned and lively commentary and anecdotes - is meant as a reference for those who want to delve deeper into a rarefied and enthralling field of study. Unexpectedly, there’s no glossary of indigenous terms. Names of objects are defined the first time they appear in the text, but not thereafter. If you want to know the meaning of a term or if you’re interested in just bracelets, sarongs or shell artifacts, just look up the word or any general category in the comprehensive index where translations, images, island of origin, cultural and historic background and any other relevant information is provided. I wished that the page numbers were in bolder type so they would be easier to read. The Art of the Lesser Sundas fills the gap in the scarcity of publications on these remote and scattered islands, inspiring a reconsideration of the rightful place the extraordinary art of the traditional cultures of the Lesser Sunda region holds within the larger universe of Southeast Asia and Oceanic art. The Art of the Lesser Sundas by A. F. Granucci, Editions Didier Millet 2005, ISBN 978-981-415-5540, hardcover, 212 pages, dimensions 24.5 cm X 29 cm. Available for Rp650,000 at Periplus (www.periplus.com) and Ganesha bookstores (www.ganeshabooksbali.com).

The Frugal Balinist *All-purpose paper towels: Costing only Rp10,000 per roll), food can be wrapped in paper towels when steamcooking in microwave to make healthy meals and snacks; wrap herbs and other leafy greens in dampened towels to keep fresh longer while refrigerated; wrap bread in paper towels before placing in freezer to keep it from getting soggy; add a little vegetable oil to wadded up paper towels and drag across grill grates to keep food from sticking; clean the cutting wheel of a can opener; run a towel through a sewing machine to pick up excess lubricant; clean rubber edges of car windshield wiper blades with a dampened paper towel (add glass cleaner, water or small amount of detergent) to extend the life of the wipers. Sheets of paper towels can also be used to clean up counter messes; absorb excess cooking oil from fried foods; put a colander in a new pot, place a towel in the colander and pour in broth to strain away grease; lightly clean woks and frying pans to keep them rust-free without taking away all the oil; test if seeds are viable by sandwiching them between two wet towels in a warm place for two weeks. BUT don’t use rough paper towels for cleaning eyeglasses, camera lenses and TV screens (use micro¿ber cloth instead) or for washing windows (use squeegee instead). Note: Eyeglass lenses are best cleaned using warm water with a drop of dish detergent, then dry with soft tissue.
*Clay cooking stoves (kompor tanah). Balinese use both LPG stoves (Rp350,000 to Rp450,000 for a good Rinnai model) and clay or cement stoves which use wood and agricultural wastes such as corn stalks and rice husks for their cooking needs. In the countryside, the women of the household wake up early, cook a big pot of rice and boil water on an outside or sheltered clay or cement stove. In the rainy season, LPG stoves are used more but in the dry season they are only used to quickly boil water for hot beverages, for example if guests arrive. City dwellers use LPG stoves almost e x c l u s i v e l y. Both urban and country people boil water for both drinking (if they don’t have a water filter) and to fill a large thermos so they are able to make tea or coffee throughout the day. Balinese in the villages prefer to do all their cooking on cement stoves made from molds or traditional clay burning stoves that are extremely well designed for very small cooking ¿res. These types of stoves con¿ne the ¿re and its convective heat to just the area under the pot, resulting in increased ef¿ciency. Tungku (paon in Balinese), sold in Kapal (Rp100,000-Rp140,000) are hand made from sandy clay, and come in a variety of sizes from those for use by small families up to larger models for use in busy food stands or preparing food for a large a number of people on ceremonial occasions. Models have 2 or 3 holes, providing equal heat if pots are arranged side by side. In some clay stoves, cook pots are slightly elevated on 3 or more humps built into the stovetop, allowing the ¿re and heated air to pass up around the base of the pot.
* Minitips. A bargain
isn’t a bargain unless it’s something you need. If you don’t want to get sick in Bali keep your ¿ngers away from your mouth. At a nasi padang restaurant, choose takeaway (nasi bungkus ) because there will be a larger portion of rice; if you eat on the premises, order free teh hangat/ air putih (warm tea). For cheap meals in shopping malls, head for the cafeteria located downstairs in the basement where there are plenty of cheap warung catering to mall employees. CataÀam (Rp7000 per 50 mg pill) is an amazingly effective and fast-acting painkiller for toothaches; for children get the 25 mg pill (Rp3500). Ponstan (Rp3000 per pill) is not as good, but still better than aspirin. American Medical Association reported in 2014 that eating whole grains substantially reduces the risk of dying. If something is too good to be true, it probably is. On Bali if a
foreign driver hits a pedestrian (even if it’s not his fault) or a motorcyclist (even if they aren’t wearing a helmet or have a driver’s license), he will most likely be held responsible. It’s far too messy re¿lling printer ink cartridges by yourself; have them ¿lled by a print repair shop instead; very affordable at Rp35,000 black; Rp50,000 color. If you can build or repair it at home, why buy it? Your bargaining power is greatly enhanced if you don’t really want the item; but be careful: if you offer what you feel is a ridiculously low price, it still might be three times what a Balinese can buy it for. Brake Àuid should be checked whenever you make an oil change and should be replaced every two years or 38,000 km (24,000 miles). Never give personal or bank information in response to a phone or email solicitation. Quick to borrow is slow to pay.
*Vegan is cheaper: If you’ve ever had any doubt that animal agriculture isn’t ruining the planet (by some UN estimates a staggering 51% of global pollution), see the terrifying, infuriating and abysmally depressing documentary Cowspiracy which convinces almost any viewer that they can not now call themselves a true environmentalist without following a vegan diet. Cheaper and easier than eating meat, dairy products, eggs, cheese and other food that come from animals, you can get all your protein from a plant-based diet, i.e. grains, beans, nuts, peanut butter, soy (lots of vitamin B12 in tempe) and vegetables like kangkung and avocados. Protein can be found in all these foods; they only must be consumed in greater quantities to get the same amount as their counterparts in meat. The end result is that vegans can get the same amount of protein with less fat or toxins. Studies also show that you can also get suf¿cient carbohydrates whether you’re a vegetarian or a carnivore. Many cereals are forti¿ed with B1, there are hemp-based protein and amino acid supplements and plant-based protein powder. Vegetarians are generally healthier than heavy meat eaters, have less risk of heart disease and tend to weigh 6-10 pounds less. To become a raw vegan by not heating food above 112 degrees Fahrenheit is even healthier. Other revealing food-focused documentaries: “Food, Inc.,” “Forks Over Knives,” and You Tube’s “What happens to Food.”
*Vehicle rental tips: Bali is extremely good value when it comes to renting vehicles. Price depends on where, how old the vehicle and on what kind of car or motorcycle you rent. You can rent a good car with insurance in Bali for as little as Rp250,000-Rp350,000 per day. But in Flores you have to pay twice as much - and without insurance. You may pay Rp300,000 to rent a motorbike for a week or even Rp500,000 for a month on Bali but in Ambon tourists are charged Rp1 million per week. And in Papua it’s even way more expensive. A Suzuki Karimun on Bali can be rented for Rp2 million per month (no insurance). Old Mitsubishi and Toyotas can be rented directly from individuals for Rp3-4 million per month (no insurance). Rental companies can charge up to Rp1-2 million per week (includes insurance). Entry and parking fees for the car at certain destinations are at your cost. If you have guests arriving on the island and want them to be in good hands, rent a car from Andre Sewatama (Jl. By Pass Ngurah Rai 330 (opposite SMP 9) in Sanur, tel. 0361-288-359/ 2032400, email: andresewatama@gmail.com. Charging US$55 per day for a Toyota with English-speaking driver for 10 hours, including cost of the driver’s lunch, good insurance, all taxes, unlimited km and even recommendations appropriate to your area. You can add hours but just give a tip to the driver. Payment is either in US$ or rupiah directly to the driver or if you visit the of¿ce you can make a credit card payment. *Tech online: The technology and internet apps website, UK-based MakeUseOf posts information on software, browsers, cool web apps, useful websites, gadgets, tech news and opinion written by knowledgeable contributors. They publish a free new eBook (in EPUB or PDF formats) about once every 10 days, so there’s already a huge, free library of thorough and cleverly written guides to download or read online that’s just a click away. Sample guides: Useful Tools For The You Tube Enthusiast, 8 Android Apps Every World Traveller Needs, 10 Awesome iOS Apps, How to Make Your Own Android app using the MIT App Inventor, Top ten Website Building Tools, What you need to know When Buying A Refurbished Mac, Ten Best Websites for Downloading Open Source Apps, Editing Photos on iPad, Upgrade tips for Mac Mini, etc. * Rice
*Gas hot water heater vs. electric hot water heater: We just wasted Rp1.5 juta buying a gas water heater about six months ago and it has caused no end of problems. Though gas heaters and electric heaters cost about the same, take it from us and buy a more reliable electric hot water heater. On the plus side, gas water heaters are 2-3 times less costly to run than electric ones, and they tend to have higher Àow and faster heating rates than electric ones. On the negative side, gas water heaters can waste energy if they are equipped with a pilot light, can more easily get clogged up with water containing sediment and are infinitely more complex, temperamental and high maintenance appliances. We found that you almost need a mechanic on standby to keep them running properly and safely. They also need to be hooked up professionally to a natural gas (LPG) tank, are more dif¿cult to install, the batteries and LPG gas tanks need to be continually replaced or refilled (3 kg Rp20,000; 12 kg Rp125,000), they need to be vented properly near an outside wall, and are not as safe to run as electric water heaters. Electric models have longer life spans, require only heating elements and thermostats to heat water, require less maintenance and can be installed easily (using your existing electrical system) anywhere in the home or business, including at point-of-use such as a laundry, pool or hot tub. Rinnai electric water heaters are the best; easy to repair and easy to get spare parts for. A good gas water heater is Bosch, which has a long life but is dif¿cult to get spare parts for. Krisbow (Ace, Hardy’s, Carefour, Mitra 10) is another popular brand for both types of water heaters.
mills: Your local rice mill (selep penyosohan) husks rice, but there are also milling machines (selep tepung/bumbu) in general goods shops (toko selep tepung/bumbu) that will grind up your rice to make Àour (tepung beras) and grind your coffee beans to make coffee powder, as well as other hard grains into Àour. The service fee for grinding is Rp3000-Rp5000. The coffee habit is cheaper if you buy the beans. One kilo of coffee beans (biji kopi) costs Rp20,000 while one kilo of coffee powder (tepung kopi) is Rp50,000. Grinding 1 kg of coffee beans (Rp20,000 in the country; Rp25,000 in the city) will produce 2 kg of coffee powder (value: Rp50,000 per kg), so each time you’ll realize a savings of Rp80,000. If you want to do grate coconut and cassava yourself, use a parut listrik (Rp350,000 in Dapur Prima or in a shop that sells farming machinery like rice ¿elds tractors, generators, water pumps (toko disel dan pompa air).
