Restoring Your Ecosystem Temesi Recycling By Jennifer Juno

No one needs reminding that Bali’s environment is under siege. What was once a pristine setting is now punctuated with piles of garbage dumped by roadsides and riverbanks. The waste problem in Indonesia needs urgent attention.

profit from tourism and is relatively poor. The main occupation of the villagers is agricultural, with rice being the major crop. But there are a number of family owned ‘furnaces’ to produce traditional bricks for temples and houses.

In 2004 a joint project between Gianyar Regency, Temesi village and the Ubud Rotary Club, created a recycling plant, which attracted funding from the Swiss Government, USAID and the Canadian IDRC. They sponsored a solution that can be replicated elsewhere. Yayasan Pemilahan Sampah Temesi (Temesi Waste Separation Foundation) has been operating since 1985, and according to project manager and scientist, David Kuper, research at the plant may well be the ‘most advanced in SE Asia.’ More than 30 employees at the plant were originally from Temesi village, highlighting the economic benefit of the recycling plant to locals.

David Kuper, a Swiss chemist, initiated and planned this project with the Ubud Rotary Club and they launched an initiative to collect garbage from every local household, build a recycling centre and create community-wide awareness of the benefits of recycling. Ubud was selected as the location of the pilot project because it was a high-profile tourist destination with an obvious problem.

Today 90 percent of the waste produced in the regency is processed in the facility located in Temesi and the compost produced is sold to the private market. An environmental educational park was also set up within the waste management facility by restoring the old landfill. I interviewed the new and informative facilities manager Nyoman Budiartha to learn how Bali’s waste is collected, sorted and used to make a fertilizer that was given free to the farmers in Pesalakan last growing season. Pak Nyoman is just back from living in the States and traveling around the world and is very ashamed at the Balinese peoples attitude towards ‘just throwing away plastic.’ A TOUR OF THE FACILITY Pak Nyoman gives me a guided tour of Temesi, which has to be the most beautiful waste facility in the world. Surrounded by green, rice field vistas, I begin to understand why this passionate Balinese man is involved in the project. Educated in America for 10 years, Pak Nyoman was President of Environmental Protection in Atlanta Georgia. When he returned to Bali in 2004 after the second bomb, Nyoman discovered he could not return Stateside because the consulate would not extend his visa. Experiencing a culture shock back on native soil, and watching people sweep waste into the rivers, Nyoman realized that few people cared about the environment. He embarked upon a journey to help build his country alongside others including the government. In 2012 Nyoman met with David Kuper and joined Temesi, which had been operating for several years. The pilot facility started operating in June 2004. Since then Temesi has gained wide local and international attention and has thus raised high expectations. In the pilot facility, the recycling procedures are optimized and ‘large scale forced aeration composting’ was studied to continuously improve high quality compost. The collected waste of Gianyar Regency is often dumped on a landfill without methane capturing capacities. However, 85% of the waste in this region is of organic matter, which can be composted instead of being disposed on the landfill. About 5% is non-organic material (mostly plastic), which can be recovered and sold to recyclers. The remaining 10% of the collected waste can be safely taken to the landfill. Composting of the organic fraction avoids methane emissions from anaerobic decay, increasing the lifetime of the existing landfill extensively and producing high quality compost for use as natural fertilizer. Sufficient demand exists for large quantities of compost and other recyclables within the local market place. And continuous efforts are being made to promote the value of farming with compost inoculated with effective microorganisms. TEMESI VILLAGE Temesi, which is situated two kilometres east of Gianyar does not

After a year, the project location was moved to Temesi, east of Gianyar. The village ‘banjar’ warmly embraced the project, and government donated state land. A Memorandum of Understanding was signed and building began six days later. Yayasan Bali Fokus designed the centre, undertook the construction and provided the operating expertise and by June 2004, the centre was operational. The new objective was to build a sustainable, replicable recycling facility for a typical Indonesian environment as an alternative to landfills or incinerators. High-quality compost is now produced according to methods researched at the facility and internationally. Taking just 6 weeks to make, it is packed, weighed and sold to Bali’s increasing number of chemical-free farmers and gardeners. The income from this and the sale of inorganic recyclables such as paper, plastics and glass helps to cover the centre’s operating costs. AEROBIC COMPOSTING The true potential of the facility lies within its knowledge of ‘aerobically decomposing organic materials.’ An aerated decomposition process utilizes the right bacteria to degrade organics without producing methane, further sanitizing and infusing them with a generous mix of microorganisms. Delivered waste is separated on site and organics are processed according to an ISO 9000 norm, ensuring a standard procedure. Approximately 60 Tons are processed daily, yielding 16 Tons of Organic Compost. Large blowers force air into organic mounds, which are watered, mixed and loosened to maintain optimal conditions. During the composting process about 65% of the organic material is digested by microbes. Glucose is commonly used as a model for the aerobic microbial decomposition. The remaining 35% of the organic material is not digested and results in compost. With the help of oxygen, microbes produce highly soluble and coloured fulvic and humic acids that react later to produce less soluble humic compounds, the basis of humus. Blowing air into the compost table also serves to cool it to the optimal 65°C. However, this also removes moisture. Therefore, the compost table must be turned, mixed, watered and loosened about once a week. Shredding reduces the volume of the delivered organics to about 52%. This volume decreases again to about 23% during composting. The finished compost has only about 12% of the volume of the original organic waste. The Temesi Facility currently employs 80 staff to oversee the composting process. EDUCATION CENTER According to Pak Nyoman one of the main goals of Temesi Waste Facility is to create a beautiful, healthy, and comfortable environment for future generations to come. With the correct infrastructure in place it is essential to educate the public and local farmers who seek ‘quick results’ from using chemical fertilizers. The theme park acts as a ‘facility reception area’ and presents various environmental issues, as well as solutions and alternatives to solve growing problems. You can find demonstrations on how to make recycled paper or renewable fuel and have a look at how to reduce your energy consumption or disinfect water. Everything is presented in a ‘child friendly’ way, considering the main target audience is children and schools that visit on a regular basis.

Indeed, a project promising to reduce the trash problem in Bali is well worth a visit. Pak Nyoman describes what the future holds for waste management. How much did the recycling center cost? The cost was Rupiah 800 million, but it could be replicated at much lower cost. About 25 garbage trucks a day carrying 4 cubic metres of garbage use this facility. And the amount of waste going into the landfill has decreased by 80%. What will visitors see at the facility? You can see the three plastic sorting areas and where we weigh material, sieve it and make pellets. Some plastics are valuable, so there are collectors (pemulung) who gather the plastic ready to send to Java for processing. You can also see our Laboratorium. We water 16 tons of compost per day and 20% is shredded. What are windrows? Traditionally, composting is done in windrows, which is a discontinuous batch process. Because compost piles must be turned, watered and mixed, windrows require a lot of space. To protect them from heavy rain they must either be covered with a roof or semi-permeable covers, both are expensive. We are investing time and funds to develop a more efficient semi-continuous process. Why are landfills and incinerators problematic? Landfills are difficult to control and need provisions to prevent the leakage of contaminants into our groundwater. Recycling, on the other hand, can be a profitable and sustainable alternative. It requires only 2% of the investment of a large incinerator with the same capacity and, with its minimal running costs, recycling is an ideal decentralised solution for developing countries. The community also benefits from this more labour-intensive approach. Do you have Carbon Credits? The complete facility is odourless, low risk, low cost and low tech. Temesi has attracted additional financial support via the Kyoto Protocol in the form of carbon credits. Aerobic compost is ‘living’ and produces carbon dioxide, rather than anaerobic compost, which produces methane gas. Methane gas is 21 times stronger than carbon dioxide, creating far greater greenhouse gasses. How can the public help? Temesi is currently leasing an excavator to turn over the compost. However, we are currently seeking a sponsor in order to purchase our own excavator, because it can take months for a small part to be fixed when the machine needs to be repaired, and this means our Javanese waste separators cannot work.

DVD

The Other Son At the height of the chaos during the First Gulf War, in a hospital in Israel two babies are accidently switched at birth, however, this terrible error is not discovered for another 18 years, when the babies reach adulthood. Although French director Lorraine Levy’s family drama can sometimes come across as a bit clichéd, the movie does act as a powerful metaphor for much of the religious and political turmoil that is currently tearing the Middle East apart. The Hypnotist Swedish director Lasse Hallstrom’s big successes did not come until he moved to Hollywood in the 1990s, and created such hits as ‘What’s Eating Gilbert Grape?’ (1993), ‘The Cider House Rules’ (1999) and ‘Chocolat’ (2000). In Hallstrom’s latest thriller, a killer tries to slay an entire Stockholm family; however, a young man survives, and now lies in a hospital in a deep coma. A hypnotist, working for the Swedish police, thinks that he can reach the young man through his coma, and gain information which can help in the investigation. Hallstrom creates a very disturbing and very elegant movie. London Pitbulls Events leading up to, and after, the London riots of 2011, are shrewdly observed by English director Simon Phillips, in his pseudo-documentary. Phillips concentrates on one disillusioned policeman, who goes about his daily beat, until a devastating incident, intensified by the mounting tensions of the riots, triggers off an extreme response in him. Phillips’ movie is very violent, but it’s well made and much more intriguing than you would expect. A Liar’s Autobiography Back in the late 1960s, Graham Chapman was one of the founding members of the English television Monty Python comedy group, which went on to have tremendous screen success during the 1970s and early 1980s. Chapman died from cancer in 1989, but, not before leaving behind a collection of tape-recordings, which form the basis for this very surreal cartoon. Although the cartoon may play like a Monty Python sketch, it is not in the least bit funny, nor, has it any intention of being so. The cartoon is an unsettling account of Chapman’s struggles with homosexuality, Hollywood fame, and alcoholism. Gangster Squad This extremely stylish crime drama appears to be heavily influenced by the works of Martin Scorsese, Francis Ford Coppola, and Brian De Palma. Ruben Fleischer’s movie may be ‘old’ Hollywood in style; nevertheless, it is a rather sleek and well crafted piece of movie-making. A brave policeman puts together a handpicked team, to bring about the end of terror inflicted by a gangster in Los Angeles during the 1950s. All of the movie’s components are very smooth, and the actors, who include Josh Brolin, Ryan Gosling, Nick Nolte, Sean Penn, and Emma Stone, present top-notch performances. Java Heat A consortium of English producers has put together this Indonesian thriller. A Javanese Intel Officer purloins an American Secret Agent, to help him find a terrorist cell in Jogyakarta. The terrorists have kidnapped the daughter of the Sultan of Java, and, they are holding her captive in exchange for the Javanese Crown Jewels. Oh, yeah? The Indonesian cast and crew throw themselves enthusiastically into the making of this movie, and create a much better film than it deserves to be. Ario Bayu is great as the sexy Intel Officer. Come Out and Play This very strange Mexican movie is directed by someone called Makinov. During a festival, a tourist couple hires a boat to take them to a secluded island off the Mexican coast. However, once they arrive, there is no sign of any adults anywhere, and, there is just a group of feral children wandering throughout the streets. No explanation is given for the events which then unfold, but, trying to figure out an explanation should keep you amused. Great Expectations With a cast of all of the usual British character actors, including Ralph Fiennes, Helena Bonham Carter, and Robbie Coltrane, English director Mike Newell ploughs through this re-make of Charles Dickens’ classic novel. A young orphaned boy comes into an unexpected inheritance, but, the truth behind his fortune has

devastating consequences. ‘Great Expectations’ has been filmed many times before: 1974, 1985, & 1997. Yet, David Lean’s 1946 Black and White version still remains the best, and most atmospheric. Broken City A private eye is keeping tabs on the mayor of New York’s wife. She is suspected of being unfaithful; however, the case is to quickly develop into one of corruption in high places. Mark Wahlberg, Russell Crowe, and Catherine Zeta-Jones star in this somewhat dreary run of the mill thriller.

The Joke: 1 One looks for good news, in a diary such as this, so as to record – poorly no doubt in the eyes of many – the little illuminations that lighten one’s days on the Island of the Gods. Occasionally one is rewarded. And so it is in this edition, with the delicious “sting” on the stingers at the Lio Square Police Post at Kerobokan. For it was there, as thousands of YouTube viewers have now seen while rolling on the floor laughing their arses off, that a Dutch journalist with a video camera recorded the police extorting him for the serious crime of riding his motorbike while failing to wear a helmet. The law states that motorbike riders and passengers must wear helmets. This is eminently sensible. It is only because the majority of motorbike riders in Bali are eminently insensible – foreigners as well as locals – that so many do not bother. Mostly, unless of course it’s national fine day or they’re suddenly short of lunch money, the police don’t bother either, especially with locals who couldn’t possibly pay the extortionate bribes demanded of defaulters. Tourists (ubiquitously defined as any foreigner, whether or not they live here) are of course a prime target. It is assumed they can be dragooned into paying up instead of saying piss off, when nabbed by the traffic cops. They surmise, for the most part correctly, that a tourist won’t know that the best answer to a gouging cop is to say “write the ticket”, since these can be paid at any subdistrict police station and is on the official record. (It may still end up as someone’s lunch money but by then it’s not your problem.) Traffic police probably think it’s a safe bet most tourists won’t have the police anti-corruption office number in their mobile phone. And maybe they think none of them will have the presence of mind to take a snap of them (with name and number) on that phone. We watched the video (and rolled on the floor laughing our arse off). We got another great laugh a little later, when we heard the proposal – it was short-lived for rather obvious reasons – that the police were considering charging the Dutch journalist with bribing a policeman. If the expression pack of clowns should occur to readers in relation to any of the foregoing, then that seems only fair. But for our money the best bit of the video, aside from the little cameo where the bandit in the identityobscuring yellow vest says cheerily of the Rp200K he’s collected, “100 for beer and 100 for my government”, was the continuous footage of helmetless locals riding past the Lio Square police post completely unmolested by traffic police bent on enforcing the law.

The Joke: 2 The Dutch journalist who did us all a service outing the robber cops at Lio Square (five months ago according to the Badung police chief, as if that makes any difference) also filmed at the airport, in somewhat similar circumstances. We haven’t seen that video, since we are under strict medical orders not to laugh too much all at once. But we did hear a lovely story the other day from a returning temporary resident. It concerns cheese. The lady, who is of a certain age and had travelled alone from Queensland’s Gold Coast via a same-day transit stop in Kuala Lumpur, was armed with a quantity of this delightful staple in her baggage. Like so many of us, she sensibly tries to use her SEBs (Short Essential Breaks) to restock her fridge with the fermented product of lactating cows that hasn’t cost an arm and leg by being purchased through the Criminally Expensive Retail Cheese Supply Cartel. She duly declared on her customs form that she was carrying food products. She was required to open her luggage. The cheese was discovered by the two customs officers on the scanner to which she had been directed. One told her she had far too much cheese and she could buy it locally. He demanded a truly extortionate amount of money to overlook the offence, or else would take her to the office at the back where, she was invited to assume, even greater extortionate demands awaited her and trouble with the law might ensue. She did try to argue (pointedly, at which juncture the second customs officer present apparently deemed discretion to be the better part of valour and left the scene) but it had been a long and tiring day. In the end, rather than saying cheerily, “Oh look, that little camera thingy in the ceiling has just whirled around to look at you,” she paid the man Rp300K to shut him up. Well, we’ve all been there. Sometimes the hassle is just too much. But we would like to see a customs form on which it is clearly stated that bringing in cheese for

personal consumption is a limited concession, and to what maximum quantity. If we ever find one, we’ll let you know. Incidentally, and this will interest author Kathryn Bonella, it must not have been snowing in Bali that evening. Three unkempt Ecuadorians clad in “Yeah, I’m a Surfer” gear and toting bulging backpacks sauntered unchecked through customs control just ahead of her. We’re sure they were perfectly legit and we’re not overly enamoured of profiling as a detection method. But given drug smuggling and its primary South American origin is a rather more serious problem than overindulgence in cheese one does wonder why they weren’t targeted for executive attention.

Perils of Groupthink You’re never far from best friends these days, even on what is now fast becoming the dinosaur of communications, the SMS. This point was proved late on one recent weekend evening, when the Hec Phone bleeped and advised: “If it’s raining is Plan B brekky at the Rare Pear at 7am?” Since the message came from faraway Brisbane, we didn’t know. But since it was from a svelte delight who lives in the old home town and who has held the title of Hector’s Fave Blonde unchallenged for 20 years, we thought we should inquire. So on the Monday morning, we texted back: “Was it raining? So sorry I couldn’t put in an appearance.”

C/Ns/G - 03 April 13

A series of further exchanges took place. They went like this: Fave Blonde: “Sorry about that – you must have got caught up in one of my group emails. I go for walkies with my gym buddies every Sunday morning at 6am up Mt Gravatt – if it’s raining, we always go to the gym and then meet for brekky. Fortunately, it was not raining, we did our walk, had brekky, then I did some shopping before catching up with [a mutual friend] for a movie, then to the Max Brenner Chocolate shop where we had strawberries dipped in chocolate with a Kangaroo Cup cappuccino (mine on skinny milk, of course) with a sliver of chocolate on the side and liquid chocolate drizzled on top... hence the 4km walk at the beginning of my day!” Hec: “No worries! It all sounds fun (except the big walk at the beginning),” Fave Blonde: “That stops me from feeling guilty about the chocolate.” Mission accomplished. Favourite blondes should never be made to feel guilty.

Think Pink Hector is going pink for the day on Sunday, April 28, along with a lot of other people. You should too, dear reader, because breast cancer prevention, early detection and timely and affordable treatment are vitally important. The occasion is the fifth Bali Pink Ribbon Walk, being held at Nusa Dua. Trot off is at 4pm from the grounds of the Bali Tourism Development Corporation offices in the Manicured Area, but the event itself commences at 2.30. Walk Tickets are priced at Rp 150K for adults, Rp 75K for students (these tickets include a free Walk T-shirt) and children under 12 are free and can buy walk T-shirts on the day. This year’s event is extra special because the new Pink Ribbon House in Kuta is Indonesia’s first breast cancer support centre. On April 25 there will be a free breast health seminar at the Support Centre organised by Philips Healthcare Singapore. Radiotherapy specialists from the Allen Walker Cancer Care Centre at Royal Darwin Hospital led by centre director Professor Michael Tenniment will speak on the effect of radiation on breast cancer patients and on April 28 will take part in the walk.

C/Ns/G-6 Feb. 13

Bali Pink Ribbon Walk founder Gaye Warren tells us that after Walk Day a team of breast health doctors from Singapore, led by Dr Feliciana Tan, is taking a mobile ultra sound screening unit around the island to offer free breast screening to women in remote areas, in a project coordinated by Bali Pink Ribbon and its medical advisers. We hear an official opening of the new Support Centre is slated for October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2013 around the world.

Are You Really Losing Fat? “Obesity has overtaken smoking as the leading cause of premature death and illness in Australia. The contribution of excess weight to ill health has more than doubled in just six years, and accounts for 8.7% of all diseases, compare to 6.5% for tobacco.” Sydney Morning Herald. Do you want to be leaner and healthier? It has been proven that by losing excess body fat and living a healthier lifestyle you may not only live longer, but also look better, feel better and have loads more energy. Who doesn’t want that? Obtaining a healthy weight for your body is not only about looking and feeling good, these are bonuses. The real benefits are when being in your ideal weight range minimises the risk of developing diabetes, heart disease, arthritis and depression. These ailments are all associated with increased body fat. Why Do We Gain Weight? Contributing Factors: • Large portion size • Emotional Eating • Energy dense food readily available • Sedentary lifestyle • Low muscle mass • Fatigue • Slow metabolism • Endocrine imbalances Yo-Yo No More If you have tried a variety of weight loss strategies in the past, without long lasting success, know that you are not alone. It is essential on any weight management program that a distinction is made between fat loss and weight loss. Often without even knowing we are actually losing muscle mass, not fat. When we lose muscle mass due to the typical low fat, kilo joule restricted diets it results in a reduction in metabolic rate. (i.e. the ability to burn kjs) This increases the likelihood of putting fat back on. Now this is obviously a bad scenario for anyone wanting to maintain a healthy weight loss. Losing muscle mass and reducing metabolic rate often sets up a cycle of yo-yo dieting and fat gain, the one thing we are all trying to reduce in the first place! This cycle creates havoc on the body systems, often creating hormonal and metabolic disturbances which ultimately lead to further fat gain. Focus on Fat Loss It is essential for your health and wellbeing to avoid these damaging effects of dieting. Focus on fat loss as opposed to weight loss. With the help of a qualified health care practitioner you will be able to focus on gaining the healthy body you want, feel full of vitality and energy and best of all reduce not only your waistline but reduce your chances of developing chronic health disorders. Focus on low glycaemic index (GI) food and moderate protein in your diet. This promotes both fat burning and the preservation of lean body tissue. Why not utilise your own natural fat loss system, it’s there to be used. The aim is to re-teach your body to burn fat effectively. A bonus is that with this concept you will control your appetite and cravings, often the downfall of many well meaning restrictive diets. Seven Simple Steps to Fat Loss and Improving Your Metabolism These steps promote steady and consistent fat loss, whilst enhancing your lean muscle mass (i.e. your secret weapon to burning kilo joules.) • Consume three healthy meals per day consisting of a palm size portion of lean protein and three handfuls of low glycaemic vegetables. • One piece of fresh fruit a day

• Consume two protein snacks per day the size of three of your fingers. (e.g. 1 egg, raw nuts, 2 slices of smoked salm on, cooked chicken, etc) Also add raw vegetables to your snacks, such as celery, carrot sticks, cherry tomatoes, cucumber. Make a dip of hummus or tzatziki and enjoy guilt free. • Incorporate healthy oils as part of your daily diet • Exercise at moderate intensity for 40 minutes a minimum of four times a week. • Write a food and exercise diary. This is great to show your health care practitioner so we can decipher where things are going great and where we can enhance all your hard work by tweaking here and there. • Set progress goals. Measure Fat Burning This can be done by testing the urine for ketones using reagent strips (also known as ketostix available at pharmacies). Ketones are a by-product of fat metabolism, created as the liver breaks down fats. Their presence indicates that fat stores are being mobilised for energy production. The idea is to monitor ketones before breakfast and before dinner. It is essential to check that you are staying in the pink colour range, which is the safe fat burning range. They help motivate you by seeing that the fat stores are safely being utilised in your body. Again your health practitioner can assist you with analysing these strips.

Utilise Your Health Practitioner and Personal Trainer From my many years of experience as a Naturopath, the best results are achieved when a person is made accountable. Again and again I have had clients come in and tell me how they have tried to lose weight, which some did but most put it back on or give up after a week, saying that they will start next week. This is what we are trained for; this is what we love to do. Motivation, written goals and accountability are the keys to success. Health care practitioners and personal trainers are educated and have the tools to help you maximise your ongoing health and wellbeing. If you succeed, we succeed. A wonderful tool I have had the privilege to utilise with my clients is a Bioimpedance analyses machine. It measures biomarkers of health. It was originally developed for the use of monitoring hospital patients after surgery. So what does it tell us about you? • • • • • • •

Cellular health Energy production Body fat levels Muscle mass (remember your secret weapon to burning kilo joules) Toxicity Inflammation Response to treatment

The great thing is you get a report with all these biomarkers and the healthy ranges for your body. It is non invasive and takes a matter of seconds to test, with many clients asking is that it? Not realising it is all done so quickly and painlessly. It is a great report to have as a starting point and to see the progress throughout your wellness journey. Many health care practitioners are blessed to have this effective machine that takes out all the guess work. I wish you every success with your goals of wellness and vitality. In Good Health

Alzheimer’s – Today’s Epidemic Scourge Alzheimer’s, a disease with no cure as yet, has reached epidemic proportions and stands to bankrupt national social welfare systems. The warnings are dire. But there are hopeful signs: new research confirms the disease spreads like an infection, which could mean an antibody as a cure is in sight; finally a definitive test to show if you have the disease or not; and, evidence to support how life style and diet can make a difference. One in three seniors in the US dies with Alzheimer’s or another dementia and while deaths from major diseases, such as heart disease, HIV/AIDS and stroke continue to show significant declines, Alzheimer deaths continue to rise, increasing 68 percent from 2000-2010. So says a major new report from the Alzheimer’s Association released this March. “Now we know that 1 in 3 seniors die with Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia”, says the Association, “urgent, meaningful action is necessary, as more and more people age into greater risk of a disease that has no cure and no way to slow or stop its progression.” Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth-leading cause of death in the US and is the only leading cause of death without no proven way to prevent, cure or slow its progression. Based on 2010 data, Alzheimer’s caused 83,494 deaths. The Alzheimer’s Association report 2013 Facts & Figures reveals that in 2013 an estimated 450,000 people in the US will die with Alzheimer’s. The report went on to cite, a recent study showing that among older adults dementia was the second largest contributor to death behind heart failure. Among 70 year-olds with Alzheimer’s disease, 61 percent are expected to die within a decade. However among 70-year-olds without Alzheimer’s, only 30 percent will die within a decade.

cardiovascular complications. Low-dose aspirin, can be effective in reducing Alzheimer’s. Blood Pressure Lowering Drugs: including (ACE) inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, and calcium channel blockers. Etanercept (Enbrel®): as injection can lead to sustained improvement in cognitive function. Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF): stimulates new neurons. Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF); facilitates the growth of new neurons and synapses. Lithium: may inhibit cause of Alzheimer’s Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs); low dose tamoxifen & Raloxifen reduces risk of cognitive impairment and development of Alzheimer’s. Vaccines: are being developed in hopes of clearing brain tangles. Antibiotics: may represent a viable treatment for the disease. Additional Emerging Therapies: Rapamycin: improves removal of cellular debris. Secretase inhibitors: slow accumulation of amyloid beta tangles.

Hormone Replacement Therapy A potential strategy is to target age-related depletion of sex hormones which have fundamental roles in neural health, they include: Pregnenolone; Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA); Estrogen; Progesterone; Testosterone; Melatonin.

The Human and Financial Toll

Diet & Lifestyle Strategies

More than 5 million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease. Without the development of medical breakthroughs that prevent, slow or stop the disease, by 2050, the number of people with Alzheimer’s disease could reach 13.8 million. Previous estimates suggest that number could be high as 16 million. The burden on the nation’s health care system and government programs is enormous. The Association’s report went on to show total payments for health and long-term care for people with the disease will total $203 billion in 2013, 70 percent of which would most likely be borne by the state via Medicare and Medicaid.

Analysis of dietary patterns indicates that dietary nutrient composition may reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease: Mediterranean Diet: has been shown to reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s and other dementias in a many studies and to slow its progression Exercise: regular exercise increases brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), hippocampal neurogenesis, synaptic plasticity, brain volume, dendritic spines, and vascular function, as well as a reduction in cell death. Patients who exercised had reduced brain atrophy compared with those who did not. As little as three minutes of intense exercise sharply raised BDNF levels, as well as producing a 20% improvement in memory.

Given the dire forecast the Association calls for urgent action. “With baby boomers reaching the age of elevated risk we do not have time to wait. The National Institutes of Health needs to reset its priorities and focus its resources on the crisis and Congress must fully fund a National Alzheimer’s plan to solve this”, the Association announced. Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a decline in cognitive function that eventually leads to death. There appear to be a number of contributory causes of the disease but new research suggests it spreads much like an infection raising hopes an antibody will be found. Conventional pharmacology targets symptoms, but fails to address the underlying factors for Alzheimer’s and so far result in a some reduction of symptoms, but does not halt or reverse disease progression. The disease is the most common cause of dementia, accounting for 60 to 80 percent of all cases. The disease is recognized by deposits of the protein fragment betaamyloid in the brain, commonly known as “plaques”, along with twisted strands of the protein tau (tangles). Alzheimer’s symptoms include: • Difficulty remembering names and recent events (typical early symptoms) • Impaired judgment • Disorientation & Confusion • Behavior changes • Trouble speaking, swallowing and walking

Risk Factors for Alzheimer’s Disease Several factors influence the risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Some are modifiable, such as obesity and nutrient deficiencies, but others, such as carrying the ApoE4 gene, are not. A partial list of known risk factors associated with an increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease include: Advancing age. Family history. Carrying the ApoE4 gene. Bacterial infection. Vascular risks, diabetes, atherosclerosis, high blood pressure & cholesterol. History of head trauma. High homocysteine. Nutrient deficiencies. Silent strokes. Central obesity (high waist-to-hip ratio).

Conventional Treatment Conventional Alzheimer’s disease treatment can result in symptomatic improvement, though the underlying progression of the disease is unaffected via use of: Acetylcholinesterase Inhibitors: drugs currently used include donepezil (Aricept®), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne). NMDA Receptor Blockers: Memantine (Namenda).

Additional Pharmacologic Therapies There is evidence of some benefits from other medications, which include: Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs): however these drugs are associated with gastrointestinal, kidney, and

Nutritional Strategies Recent research indicate benefits, preventing or slowing the disease, improving cognition and reducing symptoms using the nutritional substances listed below. It has to be pointed out however that no comprehensive clinical trials have been conducted that prove or disprove the benefits noted. Alzheimer’s Disease: Huperzine A: 300-500mcg p/day improved cognitive tests scores Lipoic Acid: potent antioxidant, 600mg p/day slows progression Acetyl-L-carnitine (ALC): 3gm p/day showed reduction of cognitive impairment Panax ginseng: 400mg p/day boosted memory Vitamins C & E: C (500 mg/day) & E (400 IU/day) reduced symptoms Ginkgo biloba: varying results, some showing memory improvement Curcumin: shown to improve cognition, reduce neural & oxidative damage Cognitive Decline & Dementia: Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA): 900mg p/day improves learning & memory Vinpocetine: neuroprotective & increases cerebral circulation at 10mg 3x daily Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ): 300mg p/day stimulates mitochondria & cells Phosphatidylserine (PS): 100mg p/day showed significant memory improvement. Glycerophosphocholine (GPC): significant cognitive improvement, 1.2gm p/day. Additional Support for Cognition: There is also considerable evidence that the following natural nutrients listed have beneficial effects Coffee & Caffeine. Chlorogenic acid. Green Tea. Resveratrol. Grape Seed Extract. Magnesium. B Vits (B12, B6, Folate, Niacin. Vitamin D. Co-enzyme Q10. N-acetylcysteine (NAC). Ashwagandha. Blueberry Extract. Luteolin. Multi-Nutrient Combinations: vitamins B, C, D, and E, omega-3 oils (EPA & DHA) folic acid, SAM-e, N-acetylcysteine, acetyl-lcarnitine.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

Walter Spies: A Life in Art by John Stowell With the publication of Walter Spies: A Life in Art we have at last an exciting and superbly illustrated biography of not only the man but of a whole age. In the years leading up to his premature death in 1942, this iconic multifaceted artist made a significant and long-lasting impact on the early development of Balinese painting in the modern era. Spies took a leading role in the establishment of the Pita Maha association of artists, an attempt to improve the overall quality of painting in the flourishing art market in which participating artists’ work would be submitted for approval to an art guild. Right from its opening pages, the book is full of stunning full page and two-page reproductions of paintings, presented more or less in chronological order, that illustrate the artist’s singular surreal style - toy villages, unusually steep roofs, accentuated torsos, rhythmic treatment of landscapes, multiple horizons – that has been described as “puzzling,” “subversive,” “magic” and “closer to expressionism than in realism.” In the end, of course, each viewer sees in his paintings what they want to see. Spies’s remarkable life wasn’t even brought to light to a wider public until 1964 when the Hague mounted a retrospective exhibition of the painter’s work. Besides a book of Spies’ photographs (The Imaginary Museum, 1996), only one other non-fiction book (Walter Spies and Balinese Art by H. Rhodius) has ever been published about the artist, and that was over 30 years ago.

the Avant garde post-war arts movement where every possible taste was permitted. Falling under the spell of the Cubists and Abstract artists, he created stage sets for expressionist theatre directors. Walter Spies was not only a painter but also a skilled photographer, choreographer, anthropologist, ethnologists, ethnographer, choreographer and natural historian. Among these many accomplishments, Spies was also a talented writer. One of the best descriptions of the Javanese gamelan I’ve ever read is the one written by Spies in 1926. He made invaluable margin notes in Vicki Baum’s manuscript of A Tale From Bali (1937). He collected oral folktales and established a palm leaf manuscript library. In the late 1930s, just when his fame as a painter of tropical landscapes had spread far and wide and commissions started to flow in from Java, England and America, fascist elements in the Dutch government launched a witch hunt against homosexuals and arrested Spies. Members of his gamelan orchestra gathered under the window of his Denpasar jail to serenade him. In 1942, the Van Imhoff sailed from Padang to Ceylon carrying German prisoners of war. A Japanese torpedo bomber sank the ship the following day. Walter Spies was not among the survivors. Events are recorded in great detail and special attention is given to recorded facts of the artist’s life by primarily researching Spies’ monumental collection of entertaining and informative letters to family and friends, memoirs of the times, interviews with 1930s visitors to Bali, retired Dutch colonial civil servants, Balinese artists who knew the artist, and various other archives accessed from Indonesia, Europe, America and Australia. Stowell explodes many of the legends surrounding Spies’s life. He was not escaping from a doomed Europe but made a clear-eyed choice to live in Java and Bali, societies that were steeped in art, theater and ceremony. The author also dispels the frequent assertion that Spies invented the Kecak dance.

A blend of classy art book, scholarly history and down to earth biography, this dense and handsome chronicle of Spics’s life is told against the backdrop of the traditional arts and culture of the Balinese and the workings of Dutch colonial society in the complex and colorful world of the Netherlands Indies in the 1930s before it was all swept away by the cataclysm of the Second World War.

Commanding prices of more than a million dollars, collectors today eagerly seek out his paintings. The story of his life has inspired novels and a school of Spies imitators and inventive forgers have sprung up to capture the elusive quality of his work. Walter Spies had great power to inspire and was considered a “father” to Balinese artists of the time. There’s a story of a group of farmers kneeling down in reverence as they viewed one of his mystical paintings for the first time in Chinese shop in Denpasar.

In the course of the book we meet comedian Charlie Chaplin, playwright Noel Coward, novelist Vicki Baum, Woolworth heiress Barbara Hutton, painters Willem Hofker and La Mayeur. Spies corroborated on a book with musicologist Beryl de Zoote, assisted Colin McPhee of A House of Bali fame, befriended Margaret Mead and Gregory Bateson, the foremost anthropologists of the time, and served as consultant for writer Miquel Covarrubias who wrote and illustrated Island of Bali which remains to this day one of the most thorough and definitive ethnographies of Bali ever written.

Already well known for their aesthetics, Afterhours Books has outdone even themselves in producing a hefty volume whose physical beauty adds to the pleasure of reading. Special design elements - attractive jacket, embossed cover, decorated endpapers, high-quality paper - make the book a value package that is worth buying and keeping. With its meticulous biographical detail, 90 sumptuous color reproductions of paintings and graphic works of one of the most gifted and enigmatic artists of the 20th century, this book sets a benchmark for art lovers, scholars and book publishers alike.

Born the son of wealthy German parents in 1895, Spies grew up as a child of privilege in Czarist Russia. He had not quite finished schooling when WW I and the Russian Revolution stripped the family of its fortune and sent Spies at the age of 22 into exile to the Ural Mountains where he walked in the wilderness, fished in the streams and gave piano lessons to the children of Islamic Bashkir and Tatar nomads.

Walter Spies: A Life in Art by John Stowell, Afterhours Books 2012, ISBN 978-6029658804, hardcover, 328 pages, bibliography, catalog of included works, index, dimensions 13 x 9.8 x 1.2 inches, weight 4.6 pounds. Available for Rp1,375,000 at Ganesha and Periplus bookstores.

Spies plunged into the wild flurry of the roaring twenties in turbulent Berlin and Dresden after the war in close contact with leading figures of the arts. He met Maxim Gorki, Paul Klee and became the lover of Friedrich Murnau, a pioneer of the New Cinema. He put himself on the cutting edge of

PARADISE... IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

CONTRACEPTION Choosing a method of contraception that is right requires accurate information and the ability to communicate openly. Issues such as effectiveness, safety and adverse effects need to be weighed against convenience, cost and issues of trust and control. Unfortunately in Indonesia counseling on contraception is limited and often exclusively available only to couples who are legally married (and able to prove this), and are over the age of 18. This leaves huge holes in the net for sexually active people that do not fall into either of these categories. Aside from this there are many religious observances that also forbid contraception. However if we are to believe data produced by authorities here, on the current population growth rate of 1.49 percent per year, this country`s population is predicted to rise to 450 million in 2045, from the current 241 million. This spells out mass tragedy in a country that can barely afford to feed itself on current figures, let alone with double the mouths to feed. In this light, family planning must be of paramount consideration, not only in Indonesia, but worldwide. Here are a list of family planning methods, some of which are available here, and some which are not. I urge you to play a part in educating not only yourself and your own family and friends, but to spread the awareness to local people around you who may not have access to such honest and complete information. The methods chosen will depend on a range of factors, such as general health, lifestyle and relationships, finance, the risk of contracting a sexually transmissible infection (STI) and how important it is that pregnancy does not occur. Some methods require more motivation than others. For example, one may need to remember to take the pill every day whereas an implant can last up to three years. Consider the pros and cons and think about how these methods meet current and future needs. Protect against STIs It is important to practice safe sex as well as to protect against pregnancy. Not all methods of contraception provide protection against STIs. The best way to reduce your risk of STIs is to use barrier protection such as male and female condoms and dams (a thin piece of latex placed over the anal or vulval area during oral sex). Condoms can be used for oral, vaginal and anal sex to help prevent the spread of infections.

Physical barrier methods Barrier methods of contraception stop sperm from getting into the womb (uterus). Options include: • Male condom • Female condom • Diaphragm. Male and female condoms also decrease the risk of STIs. Barrier methods can be very effective if used correctly. However, they can have high failure rates if they are not used consistently and correctly. Male condom This is a latex (or polyurethane) sheath that covers the erect penis and prevents semen entering the vagina. This is an effective (98 per cent) form of contraception when used correctly. This means using a condom every time you have sex and putting it on before there is any contact between the penis and vagina. Male condoms are relatively cheap and are available over the counter from supermarkets, pharmacies and sexual health clinics. Female condom (NOT AVAILABLE IN INDONESIA) This is a loose polyurethane sheath with a flexible ring at each end that sits in the vagina and collects semen. It can be inserted several hours before intercourse and is stronger than the male latex condom, though insertion and use may take some practice. If you use a female condom correctly every time you have sex, they are 95 per cent effective. Diaphragm (NOT AVAILABLE IN INDONESIA) This is a soft, shallow rubber dome that fits in the vagina, covers the cervix and stops sperm from entering the uterus. The diaphragm must stay in place for at least six hours after intercourse and is 94 per cent effective if used, fitted and positioned correctly. Diaphragms must be fitted by a suitably trained doctor or nurse. They may decrease the risk of STIs, but should not be relied on for this purpose. Diaphragms also need to be re-fitted and changed after significant body weight fluctuations.

Intrauterine devices (IUD) An IUD, sometimes known as a coil, is a small plastic device with added copper or hormones (Mirena) (Mirena is not

readily available in Indonesia, however some specialists do stock them. They are expensive costing approx. $300) which is inserted into your uterus by a doctor. It can stay in the uterus for five to ten years (depending on the type used) and can easily be removed earlier if you want to become pregnant or are having problems. Both types of IUD are more than 99 per cent effective. They work by changing the lining and environment of the uterus, effectively killing off sperm. If any sperm survive and fertilize an egg, the egg is unable to stick to the wall of the uterus, preventing a pregnancy from continuing. The hormonal (Mirena) IUD also slowly and continuously releases a small amount of progestogen, which can thicken the mucus made by the cervix to further block sperm. This may also cause minor effects on the hormones controlling your menstrual cycle. The hormonal IUD (Mirena) is occasionally removed because of hormonal symptoms such as headache, breast tenderness, acne and increased appetite. It does, however, generally result in very light periods. The copper IUD tends to make periods heavier, but doesn’t cause hormonal side effects. IUD’s are not suitable for women who already have a heavy cycle, or suffer from endometriosis. Hormonal contraceptives – pills and vaginal rings Hormonal contraception for women is available by prescription in the form of a pill (oral contraceptive) or a vaginal ring. These methods are highly effective (99.7 per cent) if used correctly but, allowing for missed pills or days of ring use, may only be 92 per cent effective. Hormonal contraception may produce side effects and doesn’t protect against STIs. Combined pill This is made up of synthetic forms of the hormones oestrogen and progesterone. The combined pill prevents ovulation, thickens cervical mucus to make it harder for sperm to enter the uterus and changes the lining of the uterus to make it less suitable for a fertilized egg to stick. There are many types of combined pills with different dose and hormone combinations. This form of contraception is generally not recommended for women who are at risk of heart disease, such as smokers aged over 35 years. Vaginal ring (NOT AVAILABLE IN INDONESIA) This contains similar hormones to the combined pill and works in the same way. A ‘one size fits all’ ring is inserted into the vagina and stays in place for three weeks. During that time, it slowly releases hormones that pass from the vagina into the bloodstream. It’s then removed and a new ring is inserted a week later. The vaginal ring is low dose and saves remembering to take a pill every day. It’s also as easy to insert as a tampon and, like the combined pill, is 99.7 per cent effective if used correctly. Mini pill This contains only a synthetic form of the hormone progesterone. It makes the cervical mucus thicker, which prevents sperm from entering the uterus. The mini pill must be taken every day at the same time and is not as effective as the combined pill. It’s usually suitable for women who either experience side effects from oestrogen or shouldn’t take it for health reasons. The mini pill can also be taken by breast feeding women whereas the combination pill may not.

Hormonal contraceptives – implants and injections Hormonal contraceptives for women are also available as implants and injections. These methods are more effective than other hormonal methods, but may produce side effects and don’t protect against STIs. Implanon This is a hormone implant that is inserted under the skin at the inner side of the upper arm. It contains etonogestrel, a progesterone-like hormone that prevents ovulation and hinders sperm from entering the cervix by changing cervical mucus. Implanon lasts for three years, is close to 100 per cent effective and is suitable for most women who can’t tolerate synthetic estrogens. The device is inserted by a doctor under local anaesthetic. (Implanon is not readliy available in Indonesia, however some specialists do stock them). DPMA injections (Depo-Provera/Depo-Ralovera) These are long-acting (12 to 14 weeks) injectable contraceptives containing the hormone progestogen. They prevent ovulation, block sperm by thickening the mucus made by the cervix and cause changes in the lining of the uterus to make it unsuitable for a fertilized egg to stick. DPMA injections are highly effective and provide a very private method of contraception.

Sterilization Sterilization is a permanent surgical procedure that requires referral to a specialist. Female and male sterilization are highly effective methods of contraception, but don’t protect against STIs. Female sterilization This procedure blocks the fallopian tubes, preventing an egg from passing down the tube and being fertilized. The two common surgical methods used are: • Tubal ligation (having your tubes tied) – performed under general anesthetic • Essure (having small coils inserted) – (NOT AVAILABLE IN INDONESIA) performed under local anesthetic. In many centers in Indonesia female sterilization is still performed via regular “knife” surgery. Very few hospitals have the key-hole surgery option. Vasectomy (male sterilisation) This involves blocking sperm by cutting the tubes as they pass through from the testes to the penis.

Emergency contraception Sometimes it is necessary to prevent pregnancy after sex, rather than before: for example, when a pill is forgotten or a condom breaks, or in the case of rape. Emergency contraception, also known as the ‘morning after pill’ (The brand available locally is Postinor II), is a hormonal method of contraception that prevents or delays ovulation in that cycle. It may also stop a fertilized egg from sticking to the wall of the uterus. It prevents 85 per cent of pregnancies that would have otherwise occurred. There are different types of emergency contraception available. The most commonly used form, a single pill containing the hormone progestogen, can be prescribed by a doctor or purchased over the counter at most pharmacies. Emergency contraception is best used within 72 hours of unprotected sex – the sooner within the 72 hours it is taken, the more effective it is. It can be taken up to 120 hours after unprotected sex, but will be less effective.

Natural methods Natural family planning is based on an understanding of the menstrual cycle. Methods include monitoring cervical mucus changes, body temperature changes and rhythm or cycle calculations to help determine when a woman is most likely to be fertile each month. The effectiveness of natural family planning varies in relation to whether one or a combination of methods is used. Confidence, correct use and effectiveness improve the longer the method is used. Natural family planning methods, however, do not protect against STIs and are not suitable for women that have an irregular cycle. As you can see there are a variety of methods of contraception that are available and they are totally dependent on the diligence of the user for their effectiveness. Always discuss the contraception that you use with a health professional as there may be considerations that need to be addressed to avoid contraception failure. For example did you know that some drugs such as antibiotics and even natural remedies such as St Johns Wort will decrease the effectiveness of the pill? If your doctor does not give you any information when he or she prescribes contraception, research it for yourself. There are many sites that give good solid advice on family planning methods, their effectiveness and possible side effects. Oh and on the subject of side effects (as many of my clients are concerned about this), are you happier to deal with some minor discomfort from using contraceptives? Or would you rather deal with the consequences of multiple unwanted pregnancies? Think about it.

Portable Solar key chain charger

More Gadgets Galore. This week I’ve got an incredible way to have your own robot cameraman for your iPhone; a key chain solar charger; an iPhone lens filter kit; another neat solar charger; and four great DIY (do it yourself) projects to save your smartphone. Enjoy. Your Personal Cameraman with Swivl Self-Tracking Camera for iPhone/iPod Touch If you love recording stuff you’re gonna love the Swivl camera! – It’s an interactive swiveling tripod with a wireless mic for your iPhone (Compatible with iPhone 4, iPhone 4s and iPod Touch 4th generation). It’s also smart enough to pan and tilt on its own, keeping the person holding its electronic marker within its frame. Its electronic marker tells the Swivl where it should be pointing and also has a microphone so your sound will be good even in noisy environments. Imagine being able to make your own HD videos through your iPhone. Now you can produce, direct and star in all your own action videos! It would be cool for real estate showings, product demonstrations to professors recording their own lectures for online courses. The product was shown at CES earlier this year which quickly became the crowd favorite based on the online votes received. http://www.swivl.com/ US$179

XDModo solar charger sticks to the inside of a window

I guess we’re lucky that we now live in a part of the world blessed with long sunny days that are perfect for juicing up the battery on my solar device charger. I do have to keep getting up and moving it, though, so that the panels don’t fall into the shadows cast by furniture in the room or even the window frames themselves, thus reducing its efficiency. Propping the charger up against the glass is one way to ensure maximum exposure to those energy-giving rays, but XDModo has a much slicker solution. Users can stick the 0.68-inch thick Window solar charger to the inside of a glass window with the photovoltaic panels facing out, and then feed off a charging cable to a portable device positioned in the cooling shade. http://www.design-3000.de/ US$66

Holga iPhone lens filter kit

Keep your phone powered anywhere with the solar key chain charger. Discover the portability and convenience of the Bell and Howell portable solar charger. The multicrystal solar panel and high capacity rechargeable lithium battery captures and stores energy from the sun or any other light source. Included adapters allow you to charge any device from iPhones and E-readers to Bluetooth and GPS navigators. Features three LED lights for use in the darkness or finding a key hole at night.

Instead of paying hundreds of dollars for a new device every time yours breaks, here are 4 very easy repairs and upgrades you can perform yourself at home. 4. Get Buggy Speakers Working Again This happened to me. Very frustrating until I discovered this trick. Your headphone jack can get gunked up with lint and other debris from your pockets. When that happens, your phone can have problems switching from headphones to speaker when you don’t have your headphones plugged in. There’s no need to open up your phone or take it in to get fixed. Just stick a cotton swab down the headphone jack to clear it out and it should be good as new. 3. Fix a Loose Charging Port with a Toothpick Over time, the micro-USB port that charges your phone can come loose, to the point where your charger might not even fit anymore. Luckily, the fix is a lot simpler than it seems: all you really need is a thin, sharpened toothpick to get some of the lint and dirt out. After you clean it out, the plug should stick in the socket much more firmly, and stay in place like it used to.

C/CI/G-19 Sept. 12

2. Cool Down an Overheating Phone This can be both a software and a hardware problem, but we’ve all been there: your cell phone is burning a hole in your pocket it’s so hot. Well, often this is because of the battery—so turning off battery- and CPU-draining apps can help a lot. However, you should also try and let it breathe a little bit. If possible, don’t stifle it in your pocket, and take off that non-breathable case and see if that helps. The cooler you can keep your phone, the longer it will last—and the better battery life you’ll get throughout the day. 1. Resurrect a Soaked Phone with Rice Many of you have probably heard of this trick before, and it really does work. If your phone takes an unexpected swim, you can save it by NOT turning it on, removing the battery (if possible), getting it to a bag of rice as quickly as you can, and leaving it there for a day or two (the longer, the better). If your screen’s having problems due to moisture, you can often massage stuck pixels away with your fingers, too.

Get outta here, Instagram! With the iPhone lens filter case, you can create your own special effects and filters with no software or app needed. Just slide your iPhone 4 or 4S (5 coming soon) into the case, dial up the desired effect, and shoot to your heart’s content. So easy and so cheap! The filter kit has nine different options.

This is my last Gadgets Galore article for a while. If you have really enjoyed it, please email me below. Thanks to you all, it’s been a great 5 years!

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

COULD BANKS IN BALI GO THE WAY OF CYPRUS? Unless you have been visiting another planet or just sitting on the beach ignoring the financial world outside, you are probably aware that thousands of people who entrusted their savings to banks in Cyprus have been told they will lose between 30% and 60% of their deposits and may have further difficulty in accessing the remainder. This was the price they had to pay to ensure the banks received bailout funds from Europe. Had the Cypriot government failed to agree to the terms the bailout funds would have been refused and the banks together with the country would have been bankrupt. In which case depositors might have lost all their money. But how can a bank, with all its vast resources go bankrupt? - Very easily if it is not properly managed. Deposits taken from customers like you or me are for the short term. You can access cash in your current account for example immediately or if you want to earn interest you can agree to leave it on deposit for perhaps one month or up to a year. But the bank then makes money by lending out your money for longer terms. Housing loans constitute a major part of their loan business. Now all this is fine provided that there is a constant inflow of deposits and when interest and capital repayments from loans made by the bank are coming in to pay depositors’ interest and meet any withdrawals. But when loans start to default and a large number of depositors want access to their cash the bank, despite its huge assets, can suddenly find it is running out of money and becomes technically insolvent. Prior to the financial meltdown of 2008 if such a situation arose at a single bank the situation could have been resolved by the bank borrowing from other banks. After all, it still had the security of the deeds on all the properties it was lending against. But when property values collapse by up to 50% as in parts of Europe and when all banks find they are in the same boat the problem shifts to government. And when the government doesn’t have the resources to prop up the banks, it means the country is broke and it either defaults and goes into bankruptcy itself or, if it’s lucky as with Cyprus, gets bailout funds from other countries. But such bailouts come at a price and it is the bank account holders who have paid the price in the latest instance. This is a worrying precedent; in previous cases of bank failures in Europe and elsewhere the taxpayer has usually footed the bill. So could the same thing happen here? Bali is not dissimilar in shape and size to Cyprus but Bali is part of Indonesia so it is unlikely that any banking crisis would be restricted to Bali. On the other hand, while business in Bali may be booming it could easily be affected by any crisis that hit the rest of Indonesia. Right now in the country there is a housing boom, much of it fuelled by relatively easy loans. Cars and motorcycles are also pouring onto the roads at an alarming rate, again fuelled by easy loans and aggressive sales. While house prices are rising and the economy is strong the banking sector should remain healthy. But if there was a sudden economic downturn and the housing bubble burst resulting in a large number of defaults we could see a repeat of the banking crisis of 1997, although in that instance it was brought about by dubious loans not related to the retail housing market. Since 1997 the government has put a number of safeguards in place including stricter controls on loans and a requirement to hold higher capital reserves. The banking sector is now much stronger than it was in the 1990’s when deregulation led to a free-for-all. But there are signs of the property market heating up and a potential bubble and we don’t always know the true state of play until there is an actual problem. But aren’t bank deposits guaranteed? Yes, they are up to certain limits but the guarantee, as with any guarantee, is only as good as the strength of the

ultimate organisation behind it, in this case, the government. As the 2008 banking crisis unfolded in Europe the Irish government tried to stabilize the outflow of funds by announcing a blanket guarantee covering all bank deposits. It then had to issue a swift disclaimer qualifying the guarantee with ‘to the extent the government is able to fulfill the obligation’. Caution should be exercised by depositors in Indonesia as anywhere else. While the level of deposit guaranteed is quite generous, there are conditions. Banks have to keep interest rates for depositors for example within approved limits. Failure to do so could compromise the government guarantee.

Many other financial products come with ‘guarantees’ or ‘capital protection’. Structured Notes are a good example. These are products that ‘guarantee’ the return after a number of years of the original investment plus a possible additional return usually linked to a stock market index. The additional return is invariably inferior to any actual rise in the index but it does offer the comfort of the guarantee. It is important to understand though that these products also are only as safe as the institution providing the guarantee. As Benjamin Franklin, one of the Founding Fathers of the United States said: “The only things certain in life are death and taxes.” So where can we safely put our money? Under the mattress is not a good option. Since financial disasters can strike when and where they are often least expected the best defense is to diversify. If all your assets are in cash and the amount is substantial then clearly it would be wise to distribute your savings across a number of banks and in different jurisdictions. Expatriates might wish to hold accounts in their home countries, in Indonesia and also in well-regulated jurisdictions such as the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands. Where cash is concerned, don’t be easily influenced by higher interest rates. That was one of the big attractions of the accounts in Cyprus, apart from perhaps somewhat lax concern about the source of funds. It would also be wise to hold more than one currency. The accepted wisdom is to hold most of your money in the currency you expect to spend, particularly where retirement is concerned. If you plan to retire in Indonesia, however, it would be advisable to hold plenty of dollars or pounds as they are more likely to hold their value over time against the Rupiah. This may be less noticeable in the short term but the historical figures are compelling. When I first came to Indonesia in 1983 the exchange rate was Rp600 to the US Dollar. Today it is approaching Rp10,000. Where will it be in another 30 years? Who knows, but my guess is it will be much higher than 10,000!

Finally of course, cash is not a good place for long term savings. If you have cash you don’t need for a few years it should be invested. And again, not just in one place, but in a wide variety of assets and locations. If you don’t have such a luxury then you need to be extra careful where you place whatever you have got!

Dr. ZZ: It seems you are referring to Sherry Argov’s book, Why Men Love Bitches, From Doormat to Dreamgirl. Indeed, Ms. Argov delivers a persuasive argument as to why men are attracted to strong women, who stand up for themselves, as opposed to “nice girls,” who routinely sacrifice themselves to keep peace or to appear appealing. If it were so simple, and if there were a guaranteed, one-size-fits-all formula that would satisfy all men, we’d be living in a different world. That just isn’t the case although Ms. Argov does make a worthwhile point. Nobody likes a “yes person,” and few people enjoy the company of a meek soul who is too timid to ever voice an opinion. Men also tend to be generally more assertive than women, and they feel comfortable with women who remind them of their own mothers. If you want an insight into what that looks like, take the time to watch a mother interact with her teenage son in public sometime. The conversation is apt to be fairly one-sided and to go something like this: “Give me that. What are you doing? Here, watch your brother while I grab a cart. What’s wrong with you? Put that phone away. Watch your brother.” Rather than bitchy, this is an excellent example of “uncompromising.” This is also the female role model that most guys grow up with. A gobby-gobby-goey, sweet all the time woman just doesn’t fit the bill. Regardless of popular stereotypes, you need to know how to be yourself both with yourself and with others. Good, bad, and ugly, it is important to know that you deserve to be in a relationship with somebody who genuinely likes you for who you are. Once you have that much established, you will attract it. Question: I met this girl I like a lot, and we both have feelings for each other. But I am leaving for the UK in a couple of months and will be gone for almost a year. We really like each other, and I don’t know what to do. Dr. ZZ: It’s hard when you like someone and are moving away at the same time. You may want to let her know how you feel and keep talking with her even though it’s long distance. Ongoing communication is a positive way to show somebody that you care about them and want to keep the relationship intact. You’ll also be building a deeper friendship and learning more about each other along the way. I hope it works out. Good luck! Take care.

Question: I really like this guy who I have known for a while but never really met before. Now, I’m leaving the country for 60 days and may be leaving again for a year when I return if I get into the university program I am applying for in Europe. I’ve been single for about 5 months, and I keep saying that I want to have a hookup or a short-term relationship before I go. The problem I’m facing now is that I’ve started liking this guy so much that I’m worried about hurting him or myself if either of us makes a move. I’m also not entirely sure if he actually likes me, or if he’s just the kind of person who enjoys cuddling with friends without actually being interested.

A few days ago, I had a party at my place while my parents were out of town, and he and I ended up sleeping together on the same mattress and cuddling and hugging and tickling each other a lot. Not once did he try to kiss me, but he stayed the next day until about 6pm. When we were alone, we watched a movie and he had his arm around me. Then, when it was time for him to leave, we hugged a really short goodbye hug. I’m so worried and confused. I’m not good at talking about these things in person, and I don’t want to text him about it. He’s also been single for only about 11 days, and he’s still good friends with his ex. If I had more time, I’d happily wait it out and wait for him to tell me that he likes me when he’s ready, but there’s only a month left. What do you advise? Dr. ZZ: In his book, Wait: The Art and Science of Delay, author Frank Partnoy advocates the wisdom of waiting before acting. Partnoy is of the opinion that, in today’s fast-paced world, most of us act too quickly. The longer we can wait before acting, he says, the better. In this instance, I tend to agree with Partnoy. Often, people don’t -- or can’t -- take enough time to think about increasingly complex challenges. We feel compelled under pressure to make snap judgments when it’s probably a better idea not to rush into things for any reason. Try not to push yourself into an involvement because of limited time constraints. There’s a reason you keep reminding yourself that this fellow has been single for only eleven days. Chances are he is not ready for you just now, and you too have plans that have yet to hatch. Give yourself a little breathing room, and see where this goes after you return from your sojourn. The two of you can always text each other and keep in touch while you are away.

Restaurant Review

By Gerry Williams E-mail: gerry@balieats.com

A Slippery Stone! Slippery Stone is a long narrow site, almost hidden from the road, just a narrow drive down from a very minimal sign street-side. There is a large car park to cater for many, walk through the gallery to the first of three different dining areas, all along the left hand side. The centre is a series of open lounge areas, in between are cooling water ponds. On the right hand side is a long bar, sit at the bar and gaze over the adjoining rice paddies. The key word here is relax! You may only have come for a snack but you will want to stay long time. To start you can choose from familiar items [pate, dips and chicken wings] or venture into the unknown, which is my style. Half Moon Steamed Dumplings can be stuffed Bali style, with either a mix of babi guling and lawar [very good], or with that wonderful hot and slightly sour shredded chicken, ayam pelalah [even better]. Steamed Prawn Dumplings are curry flavoured with ginger added. Even more exotic are the Tuna Sesame Cones with pomelo, avocado and shallots. I could sit and eat these types if snacks all day. However the ultimate starter at Slippery Stone is Peking Duck [small portion or large to share] served with the mandatory pancakes to roll the meat and skin with cucumber, spring onions and the essential plum hoi sin sauce. A glass of champagne seems to go well at this stage! If you really have only come for a light meal then have a very exotic sandwich! Soft Shell Crab with peppers, red curry aioli in a corn meal roll. A sandwich of crisp Pork Belly is with apple slaw and Chinese mustard dressing whilst the Burger is Wagyu of course, with a relish of tamarind, tomato and a shiitake aioli. Even the soups [chilled green gazpacho with avocado and prawns] and the salads [caramelized pork hock with duck egg, salted egg, iceberg lettuce and tomato] are way different from normal Bali dining and challenging for both kitchen and the contented diner who is game to experiment.

Pizzas are a common order at Slippery Stone, particularly for that long leisurely visit, eating and drinking. They are different, thin and crisp, square not round, in fact you order them by length [1/4, ½ or a full metre]. The available toppings are also very innovative, Slow Roasted Lamb with sweet and sour onions, radicchio and capers, Spicy Chicken Sausage with fennel, tomato and pickled peppers, Beef Rendang with kemangi and parmesan, or Chilli Prawns with roasted capsicum, tomatoes and salsa verde. From the rotisserie you have an unusual choice, from Lombok or China. Spring Chickens [either ½ or full bird] done Taliwang style [chilli hot but not full strength as in Lombok] or the Chinese [Cantonese] way with lemon sauce. Mains are a choice of meat or seafood, all from the grill. Steaks are a feature and can be Eye Fillet, Rump, Scotch or T-Bone. The Beef Ribs are smoked and served with a green papaya, peanut and coconut salad. A simple dish and one that I like is Pork and Crab Sausages, with cucumber, pomelo, cashews, lemongrass and kemangi.

Seafood can be a simple Ikan Bakar [snapper] but even local Indonesian dishes are served more professionally here. This fish comes perfectly cooked [not overcooked as is the case far too often in Bali] and is served with lemon curd and black rice [pictured] or you can have Steamed Barramundi with prawns, dumplings, coconut, herbs and curry oil. The Yellow Fin Tuna is well spiced and served with corn fritters whilst the Coconut Sweet Lip Tempura is with an Asian slaw, school prawns and chips. There is a range of cheeses that includes an Italian gorgonzola, French brie or Australian cheddar from King Island’s Surprise Bay. Desserts keep up the innovation with a Jungle Blossom Honey Bavarois with banana and black rice tuille or a warm Apple Brioche Custard with butterscotch sauce and a Banoffi Pizza of banana, toffee and marshmallow with chocolate and vanilla ice cream. Slippery Stone is an amazing place, you may only come intending to stay for an hour but still be there hours later, not wanting to leave. Food with taste!

17 April - 01 May, 2013

Sitara has opened in Jln. Hanoman, Padang Tegal. It is a part of the Sitara chain of Indian restaurants [Surabaya and Denpasar] and is the 6th Indian restaurant to open in the general Ubud area. The location is where Ryoshi had their temporary site whilst their new restaurant was being built. Seating is inside and on covered front terrace, under the trees. This stretch of road [Hanoman and Raya Pengosekan now offers a big range of budget eateries including Indian [2], Balinese, Mexican [2], Italian [2, soon to be 3], Japanese [2], Indonesian and International [both many]. Sitara presents good quality Indian food. Start with normal Samosas, Pakoras or Frankys or less common vegetarian Drum Sticks, Paneer Lolly Pops, Paper Masala or Paneer Spring Rolls. There are Chicken, Mutton, Prawns or Fish dishes from the tandoor, and many different Kebabs. The usual Butter, Korma and Rogan Josh plus a Goanese Fish Curry [I love Goat Cakes from Goa but have never seen them on a Bali menu] plus an unusual Afghani Lamb Biryani. There are Dosas from the south and many different Nans and Martabak. Samba Grill

is Brazilian and does Churrasceria [flamed meats] at budget prices. It is found on the main road that connects Uluwatu with Pecatu. The green and yellow colours of Brazil are prominently displayed, as are pictures of many of their famous footballers [they are in fact the wall murals]. The owner is from Sao Paulo [their football team are the current winners of the FIFA world club championship], and is living his dream with this small friendly place. The drink prices are cheap and so are those for the food…. simply meats and seafood, grilled over fire.

Pondok Kuring is yet another budget priced eatery on the Renon loop [Jln. Raya Puputan at the Denpasar city end]. It is bigger and more stylish than most with large car parking and a clean air-conditioned interior. An enormous menu [85 items and that includes 15 different rice dishes] covers just about all of the normal Indonesian dishes with a few unusual International intrusions[ chicken samosa, BBQ chicken wings, macaroni and sausage soup and a soy & garlic chicken salad]. Many things hot and spicy but not a babi in sight! Gerry Williams For more information see our website: www.balieats.com

M23 is a secret except to thousands of locals who have been enjoying tasty food at bargain prices here for years. The attraction is the set menus [Paket] @ Rp. 15,000 each. There are two, one with Ayam Panggang [grilled chicken] the other with fish. Both arrive with separate plates of rice and vegetables. The chicken is very finger-licking good.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid! By Vaughan Hatch

What can we do about poorly treated Balinese performers? Last issue I talked about how Bali’s traditional musicians and dancers are poorly treated and underpaid by the tourism industry. So is anyone doing anything about it? The government is aware of the problem and there are regulations in place, such as a minimum payment (which is still ridiculously low) and forbidding transportation by truck, but these are obviously not enforced. It’s still commonplace to see performers jammed in with the gamelan instruments and hauled off like cattle to hotels in uncovered dirt trucks, that are not only unsafe, but uncomfortable and portray an image of desperation and unprofessionalism in the eyes of visitors to Bali. Part of the reason why performers resort to such low-class transportation options is financial. If 30-strong troupe is being paid just 2 or 3 mill rupiah to perform at a hotel that is an hour away, it will cost them more than half of this to hire vans for the performers and a covered vehicle to transport the instruments. Doesn’t leave a lot to pay the performers, the manager and for maintenance of the instruments and dance costumes does it? Yet to be dealt with, however, are the hotel middle men (normally naughty lower ranking managers) who may be actually up-selling entertainers to their own hotel. This sort of corrupt behavior leaves performers with only the breadcrumbs at the end of the day. Groups that perform for tourists are supposed to gain a performance permit (Patram Budaya) by way of a government examination but this is never enforced. Groups which have this should be more professional, therefore more likely to be treated well and paid an appropriate honorarium. Tourism providers also need to be educated about the value of traditional art-forms and the efforts it takes to bring these art-forms to their guests. As a visitor to Bali, you could commission a troupe for a private performance for a fair professional fee, or only patronize hotels with quality performances. At the end of the day, the tourist pays and I believe that they are prepared to if they are aware that they are directly supporting the artistic heritage of this wonderful island.

it was nearly impossible to promote Indonesia as a place to do business. But as reformasi took hold the national government became much better at providing up to date information. That’s why in 2004 I started to publish guidebooks mainly about Bali and the new tourism destinations developing east of Bali. Weren’t there already a multitude of books about Bali? I have loved Bali since my first visit in 1978, so I set out to do what I could to help the island’s recovery after its economy and reputation was shattered by the terrible Bali bombings. My first title Forever Bali was a collection of interviews with people from all races, religions and walks of life to show the world that Bali was not a base for Islamic terror. My subsequent publications aimed to promote areas outside Bali’s southern strip that were totally devoid of tourists after the bombings. Did those areas include the islands east of Bali? Yes! My bestselling tourist guidebooks cover major routes overland and by boat through what Indonesians call the southeastern islands. Tourists love Lombok’s Gili Islands, which are among the Indonesia’s top tourist attractions, as well as beautiful Flores and Komodo whose ‘dragons’ have captured the imagination of the world. I try hard not to duplicate the kind information you get in Lonely Planet and other guidebooks.

Which of all your books did you like best? Richard Mann has given almost half his life to Indonesia. Born in England in 1942, he earned a BA in Politics and Economics from the University of York, and completed a Masters in Comparative Asian Studies at the University of Hong Kong. In his 46-year-long career as a media professional, he has worked in newspapers, magazines, radio, television and public relations. Since 1982, Richard has published more than 90 books on or about Indonesia. In 1994, Richard published a book for Tien Suharto on the role of women in Indonesia. In his book, Dangerous Awakening, he wrote about the realities of terrorism in Indonesia during the early 2000s. Other titles include Economic Crisis In Indonesia: The Full Story and Plots & Schemes That Brought Down Soeharto. Since the early 1980s, Richard has commuted in and out of Bali from the UK, Canada, Singapore and New Zealand. How did you get into publishing books about Indonesia? Officials from the Government of Indonesia encouraged me to produce some publications. They suggested that I meet B. J. Habibie, then Chairman of the Batam Authority, to promote Batam Island, which was just beginning to become known to foreign investors. With Habibie’s support I published three books and one English-language newspaper to promote the advantages of doing business on the island. The ball just kept on rolling with my publishing more and more books promoting investment, trade and explaining business culture to non-Indonesians. In collaboration with various Indonesian government ministries and agencies, I’ve now been involved in a total of 45 publications. What is special about the body of your published work? Even the most apparently routine titles were developed and published either at flashpoints in Indonesia’s history or at critical junctures in the relationships between Indonesians and foreigners. Can you give some examples? My first book promoting Indonesia to Canada was entitled Canadians in Indonesia, then I brought out Economic Crisis in Indonesia – The Full Story about the financial crisis of 1997, which was followed by Plots & Schemes That Brought Down Soeharto. I also produced buyer’s guides for foreign importers. These were devastating times for Indonesia and I feel that my contributions helped. Lately, you seem to be focusing on tourism books? That’s right. After 9/11, Western companies and governments feared extremism would rise in Indonesia and

That’s very hard to say because they’re all so different. I liked working on all of them. I think the initiative in 2012 to publish Palaces of Bali - the first guide to Bali’s palaces was really creative. After Indonesia’s independence, Bali’s royal families lost power but still had palaces to maintain and, as in India and Europe, tourism is a good way of funding the renovations and upkeep as well as giving visitors unique insights into the lives, culture and art of royalty. There are 12 palaces featured in the book but for the next edition I may include a few more if they are open to tourists. Have there been any other “firsts”? Treasures of Bali was the first guidebook to the island’s many museums. My Guide To Bali’s UNESCO World Heritage Sites is also a first. In Dutch times there were many short stories published in magazines and then collected in books but in the modern era I think my two volumes of short stories - A Clown On The Streets Of Jakarta in 1995 and Hardship Post in 1997 - were among the first collections of short stories written by a foreigner. My book 400 Years And More Of The British In Indonesia (2004) was also the first to chronicle the history of AngloIndonesian relations beginning almost half a millennia ago with Admiral Sir Francis Drake’s exploration of the archipelago in 1579. Did the English have a long history in Indonesia? Absolutely. And many people have no idea about that. Drake wasn’t the only noteworthy Englishman to land on Indonesian soil. Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles was appointed Lieutenant Governor of the East Indies in 1811 when the British kicked out the Dutch. In the end the British government did not want to antagonize Holland and gave the East Indies back to the Netherlands. My novel Restless Warrior: Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles tells the story of the short lived but influential British occupation.

An Ashram Grows (again) By Peripatete

The recent discovery of an ancient temple in Denpasar, estimated to date back to the 14th or 15th century, made front-page headlines around Bali. Foundation stones, unearthed while laborers were digging the land, were thought to be of such significance that archeological experts took over the excavation in order to piece together the historical significance of the site. But far from the press and paparazzi, the remains of an ashram from the same era were uncovered a few months earlier just an hours’ drive from Denpasar. Deep in the heart of Tabanan regency, near the Penatahan hot springs, workers shoveling up earth for an organic garden stumbled across foundation stones of an ancient ashram - a historical tidbit only vaguely acknowledged by a local Balinese family on whose property it was located. The find re-confirmed the family’s belief that they were keepers of an ancient part of Bali’s history. The large family is headed by the elderly patriarch Pak Ketut Sama who a few years ago, was felled by a stroke. But Ketut’s son, Putu Oka and younger brother Ketut Karmina (known as ‘Uncle Karmina’) and other family members have kept history alive. The temple in the family’s compound holds boxes filled with centuries-old artifacts, many of which attest to the priestly lineage from which they are descended. Among the collected artifacts are a conch shell, a holy priest’s bell and the family lontar (ancient palm leaf manuscripts) on which are inscribed, in ancient Kawi language, the historical facts and background of the family and their land. A few years ago, ‘Uncle Karmina’ decided to study religion at university. Over the course of his studies, Uncle Karmina embarked on a painstaking translation of the family’s lontar - from Kawi into Indonesian – thereby gradually piecing together previously unknown details of his family’s history. At his graduation, he recounted the story from the lontar:

side, over stepped terraces, through a forest into a ravine and stream down below. You may be curious to know: Who built the ashram? The easy answer would be: A spirituallyinclined Ubud resident has been spearheading this project. Not of her own free will, mind you… It’s a long way from managing a multi-million dollar advertising budget for an international corporation to founding an ashram in the middle of Bali; it’s not exactly the kind of job you get headhunted for. But that is how Patricia spent her days in Northern California before moving to Bali seven years ago. Shortly after uprooting herself and settling into her Ubud life, she began to experience a barrage of visions and messages from her angels and spirits: Build a Silent Retreat for Prayer and Meditation. Patricia wasn’t in the least bit interested, preferring to lead a life of retirement in Ubud, in meditation and prayer; volunteering her services as a conflict resolution mediator; spending time with friends and eating at good restaurants. But her angels had other plans for her, and as she says, after much personal resistance “I finally gave up because the messages wouldn’t stop!” She also conceded because of a recurring vision that included two mountains, water and hot springs. With a sizable donation from a Swiss-based philanthropist, Patricia’s friends led her to Tabanan, and to a tract of land near the Penatahan hot springs, far off the beaten track. When she sensed almost immediately that the energy was lacking and multiple landowners were going to be a headache, the project nearly fell off the drawing board. Then a local villager named Dody introduced her to Putu, who suggested she look at another plot of land, further down the road, belonging to his family. Putu’s Balinese ancestors originally owned a total of eight hectares of land, out of which four were slated to be earmarked for their descendants. As soon as Patricia arrived on that land, her spirits voiced their approval to put a stake in the ground. Which led to the forging of a partnership, between Patricia and the Balinese family, for 100 years.

Once upon a time, in 1487, the kingdom of Tabanan was ruled by King Sri Arya Mur Makules. The King had two wives who bore him two sons. One day, while the King prayed in the temple, his sons chopped down the holy Banyan tree in the palace. The eldest son, Sri Arya Ramong, became ill and mentally unstable as a result. Despite many attempts by begawans (palace priests) to heal Ramong, the son’s predicament remained unchanged - until a Rsi priest near Tanah Lot emerged from trance with a vision of Mount Batu Karu, hot springs and a teak forest. The King, his sons and the priest hiked to the envisioned location, stumbling upon the hot springs at Penatahan. Further on, the residents of a village were asked for directions to a place of prayer, at which point the King and his entourage were guided to a holy rock – where Ramong began to recover. The King’s son decided to stay in the place where he healed; and requested that his father build a village and ashram for prayer and study. A temple, built on the site of Ramong’s healing, was named Pura Batur; and nearby (in a village named Mongan) the Rsi priest built an ashram and temple, Pura Dalem Madia. The priest’s descendants include Putu and Uncle Karmina’s family. The remnant stones of Pura Dalem Madia Ashram, buried deep inside the ground for centuries, would ultimately become confirmation of a foreigner’s vision coming to life. And the historical record that ‘Uncle Karmina’ divulged not only shed further light on his family’s storied past, but pulled history into the present. A left turn off the main road to the rice fields of Jatiluwih, followed by a few twists and turns, leads you deeper into Tabanan, towards the village of Penatahan. Driving through town, another road forks off into the banjar of Bedugul, and then, further along a dirt path – through rice fields, past a chicken farm, past a smattering of cacao, coconut, banana, passion fruit, jackfruit and durian trees – onto a dead end road, in the tiny banjar of Mongan. Here, in the shadow of Batu Karu, lies the nearly completed Bali Silent Retreat. This ashram, built for silent meditation and nondenominational prayer, sits on an odd-shaped parcel of land, all 4 hectares of it, a limestone paved path rising steeply from the main road, bypassing rice fields on either side, leveling off where some of the buildings are situated, only to cascade down the other

The vision began to take shape in early 2011, on an auspicious day, with all the requisite offerings, rituals and ceremonies. After much discussion and consideration, Patricia invited her long-time Balinese friend Sangtu to form a team; they have since become inseparable (business) partners. The ashram, housing up to 40 guests at one time, comprises a three-story lodge and kitchen facility (the largest building on the grounds), five bungalows, a two-story building with private rooms, and two limasans (typical of Javanese wooden architecture) to be used as dormitories. The first structure to be completed on-site was the meditation balé, an open-sided, octagonal-shaped platform covered with an expansive white solar shade canopy to ward off extreme heat and rain. A vast organic and medicinal plant garden stretches across much of the property, with an abundance of fruit trees, citronella, lemongrass and other flowers adding a fragrant touch. Sculptures of Buddha, Jesus, Ganesha and Quin Yan repose in the garden, while armies of ants, lizards and caterpillars do their rounds. Chickens peck away amidst broccoli and kale patches. A grass labyrinth, lined with pieces of limestone and kumis kucing (cat’s whiskers), provides a path for walking meditation, reflection and prayer. Another, wellmaintained path meanders through a teak forest for visitors to get a taste of the jungle. As if setting up a meditation and yoga center on an island in a

foreign country wasn’t audacious enough, a decision was made in the early stages to stay off the grid. The electricity network, that is. Which opened up, for Patricia, a Pandora’s box of issues, and set her (and Sangtu) off on a steep learning curve – about solar water heaters, solar-powered safety lights, solar-powered remote connections, battery chargers, gas-fired ovens and glass tiles. Their conversations even now are regularly peppered with terms like submersibles, automatic voltage regulators, septic and water tank specifications, compostable toilets and recycled wood. Over the past year, information sheets, prototypes and purchased items related to building an eco-friendly ashram have piled up in the home office, a short walk from the retreat center (a.k.a. construction site): power cable catalogue, construction schedule spreadsheet, a business card for laundry equipment, sketches for tables and cabinets, receipts for materials, manuals, tools, brackets, gardening gloves and coconut bowls in their experimentation s t a g e . A photocopy of the all-important IMB - building permit, hangs on the wall. As if to remind them that this project is taking root in natural surroundings, an orchid sits atop a filing cabinet, in b l o o m i n g indifference. Offerings to the ten shrines spread throughout the site are made daily – sometimes (and most unusually) at night, after a long day engulfed with numerous explanations, decisions, and usually a bit of frustrated confusion. The folded sarongs and sashes on a shelf are a reminder that, considerations of construction aside, this is, after all, Bali. Professionals, Indonesians and expats alike, from points around the island, descend on the retreat’s construction site from time to time, to offer expertise and advice about composting, solar water distillation, lighting and plumbing systems, architectural design, permaculture, furniture and linens. A motley group of friends, acquaintances and strangers have turned up periodically, offering their services in bamboo construction, gardening, water storage and insect control. The project has not been without its share of challenges: Patricia and Sangtu have been dogged by missed deliveries, rain leaking into unexpected places; the occasional corrupt official turning up with requests for ‘donations.’ The Balinese family bickers over whose bananas – of the nineteen species of banana tree – are whose; do they belong to them or to Patricia? Other unexpected surprises included: A newly built road requiring constant repair due to the pressure of heavy trucks lugging materials; heated chats between the workers from Java, Solo, Manado and even local Balinese villagers; recycled wood that arrives mis-measured; wind and rainstorms that (more than once) ripped the roof off the storage facility and workers’ lodgings. Little wonder that Patricia lifts her arms in frustration and shrieks: “Would someone please come to the rescue?!” But the messages Patricia receives from her angels and “lady spirit” – who lives in the dense forest surrounding the original Pura Dalem family temple - are those she heeds without fail. And so, despite the obstacles, missed deadlines and stress, Patricia acknowledges that she had – still has - no choice. “It’s not my project, it’s God’s,” she says, “but I just gotta keep on keeping on, and trust in the ashram coming full circle. This is Bali, Island of the Gods.” With a limited construction budget, recycled and donated materials, Patricia and Sangtu have been on a steep learning curve, cobbling together the essential infrastructural components of a place that, they hope in time, will transform into a place of silence and peace, welcoming visitors from around Bali and overseas.

Richard Lloyd Parry: Years of Living Dangerously By Renee Melchert Thorpe

Time considerations meant that Lloyd Parry was unable to fully discuss all of his unique encounters and hair-raising adventures, from being accused of lèse-majesté (insulting the country’s monarchy) in Thailand to being arrested in North Korea after happening upon a secret marketplace. He also broke the news of a US Air Force massacre of civilians in Afghanistan’s Kama Ado village, arriving shortly after the mission in the aftermath of 9/11. As with any successful literary event though, Lloyd Parry gave just enough information about his adventures to tempt his audience to read his books and journalism to discover more.

Lloyd Parry does not shy away from interviewing controversial figures, but his fact finding techniques are meticulous and there is nothing of a muck-raking sensationalist about him. As an interviewee, he is thoughtful, compassionate, and temperate. He has no desire to make disasters or war correspondence his specialty, but he’s dealt with tough assignments in workman-like fashion.

Richard Lloyd Parry, Asia Editor for the Times of London, appeared at the 2012 UWRF as a featured writer and moderator. Lloyd Parry is an award-winning journalist and author of two explosive books of nonfiction. In each of his appearances at last year’s Festival, he enthralled audiences with his considerable knowledge about various aspects of Asian politics and cultures. Lloyd Parry is perhaps best known for his non-fiction book, People That Eat Darkness, a meticulous record of his coverage of the gruesome kidnapping and murder case of Tokyo bar hostess Lucie Blackman. He discussed the book and his research with readers during a fascinating hour at one of the Hatton Wines-sponsored Glass of Wine and a Good Book late afternoon sessions. He also contributed his views and reflections in a panel on calamities and social upheavals, entitled Chronicling of Trauma. In this session, he discussed his book In the Time of Madness, a collection of his eyewitness accounts covering both UN-occupied East Timor and Indonesia’s sectarian violence in 1998 following the fall of Suharto. In a much lighter session, Lloyd Parry engagingly moderated Opening the Book on Burma, a large panel discussing the newly liberalized Myanmar. Readers who went to all of these sessions were treated to a wide range of Lloyd Parry’s experiences and local knowledge. One thing shone through every appearance was that he is a reporter who sees the benefit of including his personal reactions in any fact-filled account of atrocious inhumanity. Rather than obtruding in an egotistical manner, these personal accounts give the reader a sense of the beating heart of an everyman. His journalism is not, like so much we read today, borne of an editor’s order to cover this or that angle. In Lloyd Parry’s career, the unexpected seems to always present itself, whether he is uneasily driving deep into warring villages of Borneo, or seated at a press conference given by a father pleading for the release of his missing daughter. The blowby-painful-blow reporting makes for superb, wholly suspenseful reading.

Amazingly, after all he’s seen, Lloyd Parry is reluctant to use the word ‘evil’, despite having been personally harassed by a convicted serial rapist and murderer, as detailed in his unforgettable book, People Who Eat Darkness. There may not be another non-fiction book so haunting in its realism and detail. Both in person and in his books, Lloyd Parry’s resilience is striking. He remains a family man and holds a demeanor of modesty, calm and candor. He emphasizes the importance, even amidst gut-wrenching or heart-rending assignments, of performing mundane personal tasks: getting sleep, eating well, keeping to a routine, and staying in touch with the family. Perhaps this was a lesson Lloyd Parry learned in Bali 15 years ago, when he tried to rest in Ubud after covering the political demonstrations and police brutality in Jakarta. In the Time of Madness begins with the startling line:

C/U/G-17 April 13

‘Towards the end of my first time in Indonesia I stayed in a house on the edge of the jungle and dreamed the worst nightmares I have known since I was a child.’ Indeed, the book is horrific in content and utterly personal in tone and structure. In the same chapter, he writes: ‘For the first time in my life, I saw streets of broken glass, armoured cars advancing slowly upon crowds, men and women weeping with anger and trepidation. It is important never to lose the sense of wonder at such things.’ What follows is 300 pages of unalloyed eyewitness journalism, and anyone wanting to get an understanding of what happened with the fall of Suharto would do well to start with Lloyd Parry’s accounts. He was an excellent contributor to last year’s festival and I would love to see him return in future. Richard Lloyd Parry’s reportage can be seen online at www. thetimes.co.uk.

UBUD CLEANSING FOR THE PLANET The west should take notes. Every generation, in every part of Bali, the spirit world, the human world and the natural world are put back in alignment. The timing of these extraordinary events varies from village to village, but each village on the island undertakes the rituals about every 50 years. Just north of Ubud, the 100 families in Desa Junjungan have prepared for more than a year for their own ceremonies, which begin on April 14 and will continue for almost two weeks. The program involves a myriad of special prayer ceremonies, music, shadow puppet and dance performances, and parades of representations of the Hindu gods through the streets. For visitors, this will be an astonishing pageant, but it’s much more than that. These villagers put their whole life on hold and empty their wallets to realign their part of the island, on behalf of the whole planet. On Jl Tirta Tawar (Botanic Garden Road) at temples from 3-4 kilometers out of Ubud. Ask any Ubud tour company for dates of performances and parades. TWO FACES OF BALI Bridges Restaurant continues their series of beautiful art exhibitions this month with “Two Faces”, showcasing the work of t w o v e r y d i ff e r e n t a r t i s t s expressing Bali in their art. Through his lens, Jayesh Madhoo rediscovers this beautiful island, glimpsing moments of the deep spirituality of the Balinese. The work of exceptional mask carver maker I Wayan Muka is incredibly skilful and intricate, reflecting his years of study with many of Bali’s masters. Bridges will host a special opening night to launch the exhibition, on Friday, 19 April, 5-7:30pm, with the spirit of Bali brought to us not only through the art but also through music and dance. Through the exhibition, which runs to mid-July, Bridges continues to support Bali charities, with 20% of the proceeds donated to Bali Kids Foundation. CHINESE HEALING AT TAKSU Bringing an extraordinary wealth of medical and yogic e x p e r i e n c e w i t h h e r, Russian healer Liana has just joined the team at Ubud’s Taksu Spa. Liana has more than 27 years of experience in the field of human health, including the practice of Western Medicine (maxillofasciale and reconstructive surgery) and Chinese Medicine (Master in Tr a d i t i o n a l C h i n e s e Acupuncture), trigger point therapy, yoga therapy and macrobiotic nutrition therapy. Most recently, she worked in a holistic private therapy centre in Belgium, where eastern and western healing practitioners provided medical care including a full range of Traditional Chinese Medicine treatments and Holistic Yoga Therapy. At Taksu, Liana will have all her knowledge at your disposal whether focusing on injury recovery, massage for babies and young children or stress reduction programs, including the “Japanese facial” which is known to get rid of many long term migraines. Contact Liana on 08786 1202 617 to arrange a consultation.

More than 100 people came to eat free, drink cheaply, bop to the band, and test out the new “east meets west” bridge, connecting Fly Café to its sister café Warung Fly, with its own menu of authentic spicy Indonesian cuisine.

Nesrine said the toasted brioche was quite the best breakfast she’d had in a long time. Kue Bakery makes an excellent variety of breads, all exactly to the traditional recipe of the countries they come from. They use natural live yeasts, growing cultures that were brewed the first day the restaurant opened. Jalan Raya Ubud and Jalan Penestanan. They deliver! P: 0361 975 249. POWER OF CREATIVE WOMEN The Indonesian holiday Kartini Day, on April 21, celebrates the passionate commitment of national treasure Ibu Kartini to improving the lives of women. How fitting that an exhibition of the work of five locally based women artists, entitled The Power of Creative Women, should be launched the same week. Local Balinese artists Ida Ayu, Putu Suriati, Kartika Sudibia and ex-pat Australians Nina Packer and Cheryl Lee, have each donated a painting from the exhibition for auction, with the proceeds going to the Senang Hati Foundation for Balinese people with disabilities. Housed in the Ganesha Gallery at the Four Seasons Resort in Jimbaran, the exhibition will run until June 18 and help raise much needed funds for the Foundation, which is located in Tampaksiring.

The Tale of Two Monkey Forests Considered descendants of General Hanuman in Ramayana epic of Hindu m y t h o l o g y, monkeys occupy a semi divine status on Bali where they are allowed to proliferate within the confines of the island’s most sacred temples. The animals take central roles in folktales, dances such as the Kecak and are often found in statues, carvings and paintings. The island’s monkey forests are filled with frenetic activity during major religious holidays as well as the Tumpek Kandang ceremony that make special offerings to the forest, plants and animals. The best known monkey forests are in Tabanan, Ubud and within the majestic grove of dipterocarps trees at Sangeh, but small forests host important temples are actually found all over Bali, not just those ones designated as such for tourists. The forests serve not only as important components in the spiritual and daily lives of the village, but they are also the sites of scientific research and conservation programs. These sacred forests, remnants of ancient indigenous forests that once covered the whole island, serve as ecological reserves. Monkeys congregate virtually anywhere where there are forests at roadside parks, at cliff temples overlooking the sea and along roads that climb into the central mountain range at Bedugul and Kintamani. Visiting forests is a favorite activity among families as they are crawling with monkeys, including many females with nursing young. Kids love seeing the simians play, swing in the trees, groom and help each other finding hair lice. The most widespread monkey species found on Bali is the longtailed macaque (macaca fascicularis). Living in groups of 50 to 60 and with a life span of around 20 years, adult males weigh 8-10 kilos and have large canine teeth, broad shoulders and facial hair that resembles a moustache. Adult females are smaller at 4-8 kilos and have long facial hair resembling beards. Belonging to the sub-order of primates known as anthropoids, macaques are the most widespread and successful non-human primate genus in Indonesia. Several macaque species are used extensively in neurological animal testing. Made up of 22 species, these so-called “true monkeys” follow an intricate hierarchy, social structure and bonding behavior similar to humans. Sharing the same cultural and physical spaces as humans, macaques are found throughout Southeast Asia and are common in and around religious shrines and roadside parks in many Asian countries. In these contact zones, it’s sometimes difficult to discern clear boundaries between the two species. According to recent studies by evolutionary biologists, macaque society is centered on groups of related females called matrilines. Males migrate from other areas and attempt to mate with the females. Mating can take place year round but most infants are born during May and August. Macaque mothers can be very protective to very permissive with their infants. Many females who are not the mother spend time holding and caring for infants. Sometimes you will even see an adult male mothering infants. Every male in a group interacts with certain males more than others. Males who groom each other and spend much of their time within 1.5 meters of each other is indicative of a close friendship because it’s easy to attack another male at that distance. Just like humans, some friendships last for long

periods while other friendships dissolve after a short time. Male bonds often develop into coalitions where a group of males may fight another male to elevate their rank or social status. If a macaque of a lower rank in the social chain has eaten peanuts, leaving none for a higher-ranking macaque, then the one with superior rank will physically remove the berries from the mouth of the lower-level monkey. Ubud Monkey Forest In the mid-afternoon we arrived at Ubud’s famed Monkey Forest. Hanoman Road loops around at the south end of town to become Monkey Forest Road, which climbs up to the town’s main intersection. At the bottom where the road straightens out sits a large forested park with big trees, no hawkers, cool and attractive walkways, and the dwelling place of 560 monkeys living in three clusters of males, females and young. After buying a ticket, we started down the path that swallowed up visitors like a giant furry mouth. All around us were trees festooned with long tendrils and droopy leafy branches. Each group of the forest’s monkeys uses different areas of the forest at different times of day. Conflicts sometime arise when two groups are in the same area. To decrease our chances of encountering irascible monkeys, we decided not to feed them nor pet them. Though habituated to people, it helps to remember that they are in fact wild animals. The path took us down to a large open area under an enormous tree where a play area had been built to view the monkeys. A little beyond, a stairway took us even deeper into the forest, crossing an arching bridge through entwined roots to a coldwater springs and beautiful forest temple under a huge canopy of trees. According to the Pura Purana, an old lontar book, the temples in this forest were built during the 14th century during the Pejang Dynasty and early Gelgel Dynasty. I came away with the impression that the inhabitants of Ubud’s Monkey Forest are mild-mannered in comparison to other populations of monkeys on Bali such as are found in Ulu Watu where the island’s most mischievous monkeys dwell. These seaside creatures are known to snatch unguarded hats, sunglasses and even watches. They will only drop the item – sometimes into the rocks 150 meters below - if they are paid off with food. This method of retrieval amounts to nothing less than positive reinforcement, so the problem persists. Not so with the “tourist” monkeys of Ubud. Alas Kedaton This forest here represents one of the last remaining old growth forests of western Bali. Even though it was 11 am on a Saturday morning, the cool and spacious parking lot was nearly empty. A major festival had just taken place only days before at the forest’s Pura Dalem Kayangan Kedaton. When we visited shortly after Galungan, 80% of the scores of souvenir and craft shops were closed. A Balinese woman, who belonged to a cooperative of guides, soon appeared and told us that she would serve as our guide. At the entrance of a park shaded by a huge banyan tree, we bought some peanuts. Sweet-natured Wayan turned out to be a valuable protector. The first piece of advice she gave us was “Don’t touch the monkeys.” This tip was given just in time because just at the end of the row of shops before the park, a male immediately climbed on top of Aysah’s shoulders. Wayan deftly coaxed the animal away by offering peanuts.

Home to 1000 monkeys, the specimens here, though used to people, are friendly and well behaved. When I asked why the monkeys here were so mild-mannered, Wayan told me that they are well-fed. Three groups inhabit the forest here, each with its own raja (king). We saw a tiny monkey, born just two days before, that was already foraging for food even though it was still suckling at its mother’s breast. Called bayi merah (“red baby”), the same Indonesian term used to describe a human baby. I was impressed that Wayan knew such details such as the birthdate of a specific monkeys. Before we said our goodbyes, Wayan took us to her clothing shop where we bought a Barong T-shirt and pants for my sevenyear-old son. Even though you can buy the same set for Rp15,000 in the market, making the purchase with Wayan was the least we could do to show our gratitude for her delightful companionship as well as keeping us safe. Hanging out with the Monkeys Unwary tourists can get scratched or bitten by treating monkeys as pets, which is easy to do because they appear friendly. They don’t really care to be petted at all. They are wild animals with all the dignity, free will and unpredictability that implies. Monkeys can become aggressive towards people, barring their sharp teeth, snarling and feigning attack. A monkey bite can easily become infected, so care must be taken. One of the main reasons for this aggression is the desire to be fed or anger at not being fed. Human food is not a natural part of their diet; they are quite capable of foraging on their own. Monkeys like to eat bananas, papaya and coconuts. If you must feed the monkeys, do so carefully. Even though signs may read “Don’t Feed The Monkeys,” vendors often sell peanuts and bananas (Rp1000 for a handful) at the entrance gates of Bali’s monkey forests. Either hand the food to them or simply lay it in the palm of your hand. If they do take food, do not attempt to retrieve it. Look out for the dominant male. He should be given food first to avoid fighting. Don’t feed the infants or sub adults or their mother might bite you. Remain on the paved footpaths and don’t invade their private areas. The secret for enjoying the monkeys without getting hurt or robbed is to sit very quietly and let them come to you. They’ll perch on your lap, drape a warm furry arm on your shoulder while they munch. If you take these precautions, you can spend long stretches of time with the monkeys. Sometimes the monkeys will search you. Before you arrive, put away all extra food, zip purses shut, and lock down cameras. Take off any jewelry and paraphernalia that you don’t need they’ll gladly take possession of earrings, necklaces and watches, even hearing aids. When you smile at monkeys, don’t show your teeth--in monkeydom this is considered an aggressive gesture. If a monkey latches on to you and won’t let go, let your guide or park employee take care of it. Some caretakers have been caring for these creatures for the past 15 years. They have given the monkeys names and know the quirks of many individuals that make up a troop. Practicalities Ubud Monkey Forest in Padangtegal. Admission Rp20,000 adult; Rp10,000 child.

ARDEN DOCTOR

by The Garden Doctor

by Dr. Kris

Bugs in My Compost

‘I began composting as an eco friendly way of getting rid of garbage, and also as a way to improve my garden soil, but I’m a bit worried about how many bugs are in there. I found a bunch of maggots, ants, small flies and large cockroaches in there! I don’t put any meat or dairy in my compost bin, just fruit and vegetable waste, old paper and dry leaves and other garden waste. Is there any danger of getting an infestation in my house from the compost bin? Can I get rid of the roaches, flies, ants and maggots or do I just get rid of the bin all together? Andrew B’ I’m surprised that you didn’t mention the worms! It is normal to find different types of bugs living in your compost pile at different stages of the decomposition process, most of them are there for a good reason. Everything you put into a compost bin is broken down by bacteria and other creatures such as worms, beetles, maggots, flies and slaters. Most bugs help break down or recycle organic materials to produce a beneficial organic addition to your home garden. You would expect all sorts of bugs to take up residence in your compost at differing stages of decomposition and definitely expect worms throughout. I wouldn’t be overly concerned about the “cockroaches” that you mention. Most likely they are “wood roaches” that are brown rather than black, with very flat bodies. They are quite different from the tiny German cockroaches that infest houses. If they are large as you describe they are most likely the wood roaches not cockroaches, same family but completely different in habit. Home invading cockroaches are much smaller and generally won’t move into a well balanced compost heap as yours sounds. Like all the other bugs, the wood roaches are beneficial to your compost pile. They eat and break down the content in your compost, there is no need for concern or control, they can be found in the wild living under the bark of trees, where they eat the decomposing bark / wood material. Unlike disease carrying cockroaches that would love to invade your kitchen and munch on food scraps and crumbs, wood roaches prefer compost or wood piles. Their diet only consists of decaying vegetative matter. Once decomposition is complete the wood roaches will leave. You will never find roaches in your finished compost, because there is nothing in there that interests them. Whilst they do sometimes find their way into houses every so often (usually the kitchen sink) it’s not their natural habitat, they won’t take up residence in your home and unless they find their way back out usually die a natural death in a matter of days. I won’t get into the fact that these “may” not really be cockroaches, if you can’t stand the wood roaches and you want them out of the pile, then rotate the compost frequently with a shovel to consistently disrupt the roaches’ living conditions. Flies will indiscriminately consume decomposing organic matter and they benefit your pile by furthering the decomposition process. However, if they are becoming a plague you will easily be able to eradicate them by covering

fresh food scraps with a layer of fresh garden soil, a layer of dry leaves or a couple of sheets of fresh newspaper, or a combination of all three is even better. You must bury all food scraps completely a few inches from the surface. Ants are beneficial insects that may appear in your compost pile. The ants don’t bother the worms they and they contribute by raising the phosphorus and potassium content, as they transport minerals from place to place while they look for food. They also remove fungi and other potentially detrimental organisms from the compost back into their nests. In general, if you maintain ideal conditions for your worms ants won’t get to plague proportions. Ants prefer much drier conditions than worms, so keeping your compost moist with good drainage is the best start. Ants are much more interested in the food scraps in a worm composting system than in the worms themselves, although aggressive species like fire ants can probably cause some problems if abundant enough. If you have red ants or fire ants then you may need to encourage them to leave the bin. Moisten and rotate it or stir it with a fork to disrupt their colonies. If there are many in the vicinity, they may return to the bin. You can keep ants out of the bin by putting it on blocks of wood and setting the blocks in trays of water. I definitely would not add any sort pesticide or poison to your bin. Maggots are another normal inhabitant that helps to transform your home and garden waste into compost. Maggots are the larvae of flies. If you always cover food scraps in the pile with soil, leaves or paper, the occurrence of maggots will be much less. If you have an abundance of maggots in your compost it would indicate that the pile needs more brown material such as dried leaves, old newspaper and other dry woody material. Too many maggots would only occur if the bin has too much fruit and vegetable waste combined with too much moisture or lack of oxygen. You would need to dry the pile out by adding brown matter. Rotate the pile to get air flow which will aid drainage, whilst restricting the amount of moisture going in. Rotating the contents of the pile or bin, more frequently will help. Also remember that smaller particles decompose much more rapidly, so twigs and sticks will decompose faster if broken up and crushed. Don’t add whole fruits or vegetables. If the pumpkin, potatoes or watermelon have gone bad, cut them into smaller pieces before you them to the bin. If you have very unpleasant odours coming from the compost it is an indication composting procedures need to be altered.

After all this if you are still concerned about all the terrifying little creatures working day and night to disintegrate your waste and provide you with nutrient rich soil here is a final suggestion. Keep your compost pile or bin as far away from the house as you can. That way all those little helpers keep doing their job, without you having to worry that they will invade your house!

QUICK & SMART SERVICES WE DO ALL BUILDING SERVICES

“Vermes Legisperitum” Last week we heard about Ms Plod, a policewoman in Britain, who was called to a petrol station after the owner reported a burglary at his premises. Her mind must have been elsewhere (perhaps somewhere between her left armpit and her right knee) and she tripped over a kerb which happened to be on the petrol station’s premises. She is now suing the petrol station owner for her injured leg and wrist and probably her lost pride. Her boss, Chief Plod, is as amused as a constipated food critic and is avoiding giving explanations as to why it is that his plods do not get any financial compensation if they injure themselves while chasing Freddy “the Weasel” Nurk and his bag of swag in the dead of night.

Unfortunately in Indonesia the authorities are starting to change. New footpaths are being constructed (without holes in them) and are thoughtfully being built about a metre high so that exuberant Harley Davidson riders will not mount them and kill someone. You may have also noticed yellow tiles being installed along the centre of these footpaths with ridges cast into them. The purpose of these tiles has been a mystery for some time now. Some people believed the yellow line meant no parking on the footpath, others thought the ridges were designed to keep people alert by tripping them up if they weren’t paying attention while yet others thought the lines were so that motorbikes riding down the footpaths would keep to the left.

Of course it is certainly not reasonable that any private company should have kerbs on their premises without a licence. What we need are kerb control laws and background checks for kerb ownership. In spite of the obvious extreme danger that kerbs present to ordinary people the powerful National Kerb Association is resisting any move to protect fumble footed peelers citing the Book of Eric as saying “Kerbeth thy ways that evil may not befall thee” and claiming that the word “ways” is not qualified and so must include both highways and byways (and any other way for that matter).

Finally the truth has been revealed. The lines are to assist people with poor eyesight or blindness. They can follow the ridges by feeling them with their feet. When they come to a turn or a junction the ridges change to raised dots warning the person to take care or to turn (well that’s the theory anyway).

Accidents have become big business in recent years and litigation has been running rampant. Indeed we have witnessed the spawning of a whole new species of rodent that thrives on those who suffer injuries whether self inflicted or perpetrated by others. Known as sperits (from the latin vermes legisperitum) these stewards of society can often be found running around the streets chasing ambulances. They provide an invaluable service comforting anyone who might have had an accident in the last three years and taking up their case, fighting for justice and appropriate compensation. These wonderful people who operate under the motto “Accidents don’t just happen, someone’s got to be summonsed!” work as volunteers not requiring a fee unless success is achieved at which point they require a mere percentage of the total amount gained. It is common these days that when someone is involved in an accident of some sort (such as poking themselves up the nose with a dangerous object such as a toothbrush) you will hear comforting cries of “may the sperit be with you”. Sperits have been so successful in their services to mankind (and womankind of course) that those who provide assurances to society in exchange for financial contributions have found it necessary to elevate their levels of recompense. This has put the cost of assurances out of reach for many and has been highly successful in ceasing the operation of such dangerous activities as concerts, festivals, public swimming pools, church fetes and the like and putting a stop to that highly dangerous antisocial childhood behaviour of playing in the schoolyard. Our world has been too dangerous for far too long and thankfully governments these days are doing something about it. Indeed there are whole public service departments busily applying themselves to the task of seeking out ever more thoughtful ways that we may be protected from our own stupidity and stopping little boys from doing anything that may even slightly resemble fun. Australia, struggling with rising levels of public paranoia, has been particularly enthusiastic in protecting its citizens from their own stupidity with the introduction of the Wealth and Safety at Work Act and extensive compliance regulations. All items of equipment used in public places these days must be inspected and certified for compliance every 3 months. This is of major benefit to the economy providing valuable work for armies of people who go around checking everything that moves, or doesn’t move, to make sure it is safe. New initiatives being considered include the banning of hot coffee, the registering of steak knives with owners being required to hold a valid license, the removal of glass from people’s residences and the requirement that people wishing to use condoms must take a 6 week training course with a final practical examination at the end. Regulation does seem to be going just a little mad doesn’t it? In so called developed countries common sense doesn’t seem to be very common anymore. Where will it all end? Will we see roads and footpaths covered with thick layers of foam rubber to stop people hurting themselves if ever they are so irresponsible as to leave their place of abode and, God forbid, fall over in the street. Let’s face it bed is the safest place to be - as long as you don’t smother on a pillow. We might pause to consider that perhaps excessive intervention in people’s lives on the grounds of protecting them from themselves may, in fact, be counter productive. Some might say it disturbs the harmonious balance of the cosmos by interfering with the natural course of events and leaving our gene pool contaminated by those distinctly lacking in the gorm department. It is good to see that here in paradise we have our own sophisticated form of regulation, natural selection. A cleverly designed system that ensures that those who do stupid things (like walking down a footpath) will make their contribution to society by removing themselves from it. There is still some common sense too, I can’t see an armed robber in Bali managing to sue a minimarket owner after tripping over the doormat on his way out, can you?

Never let it be said the government employees don’t have a sense of humour, in the centre of a main tourist area the other day the yellow line was seen to lead straight into a concrete power pole planted in the centre of the footpath. “Ah ha ha, got you that time you blind wazok.” In Bali we are blessed with many freedoms that more developed countries gave up long ago but, as I have said before, with these freedoms comes a greater need for us to look after ourselves. Here there is no “they” that will make sure that people follow road rules, that what we buy is safe, that our houses are built properly and that electrical and other installations will not kill us. Yes there are comprehensive and well compiled national standards but in a wonderful laid back way these are generally not followed. Most people don’t even know about them. It is common to see men digging holes in flip flops, climbing to high places on flimsy scaffolding and of course, the biggest cause of death among young people (both locals and tourists), not wearing helmets on motorbikes.

C/BM/I-28 Nov 12

Here is a quick checklist of some of the many ways we can protect ourselves from everyday risks: Use nonslip tiles on floors particularly where they may get wet. In bathrooms and other exposed places use safety glass for doors and panels. Do not have electrical plug sockets in bathrooms. Get your water tested for mineral or bacterial contamination. Don’t drink or clean your teeth in tap water. Check your septic tank is not leaking. Don’t eat leftovers in tropical climates. Keep gas cylinders and their regulators outside or in a well ventilated space. Don’t make steps to steep. Don’t set ceiling fans too low. Make sure the gas is turned off after you finish cooking. Pull plugs out when you leave the house. Get your electricity circuits checked particularly if you have an alang alang roof. Provide balustrades along drops more than a normal step high. Avoid having sharp edges on floors, steps tables and chairs. Make sure all electrical circuits are earthed. Do not have your water heater set higher than 65 degrees. Make sure the hot tap is on the left. Avoid the use of glass in low door panels. Put fences around deep swimming pools to keep children away. Make sure swimming pools have an easy way of getting out. Keep a fire extinguisher handy and check that it works periodically. Check furnishings to make sure they are not made from highly inflammable materials. Don’t use a knife to get that piece of toast out of the toaster. If you smell gas don’t look for it with a naked flame and don’t switch a light switch or anything else electrical on. Check the power chords of electrical appliances (especially irons) regularly and don’t procrastinate about fixing them. Check your house for cracks or other signs of damage. Look for heavy masonry on your house that could fall in an earthquake and get it removed. Don’t ride a motorcycle, if you have to then always wear a helmet. Get yourself a guard dog. Make sure you have effective door locks but that you can get out in case of fire. If someone breaks in don’t confront them, let them take what they want and go. Don’t keep dangerous dogs such as Pit Bull Terriers or Rottweilers (yes I know, yours is a nice friendly one that wouldn’t hurt a fly, I have a friend you should talk to about that). Put beer on the bottom shelf of the fridge, it keeps it colder and you can still reach in when you are rendered legless. Also consider that if you can’t afford health insurance perhaps you should be living elsewhere.

Healing with Mindfulness: Reflections on Cancer with Dr. Cathirose Petrone By Brannon Gerling Meet Dr. Cathirose Petrone, a naturopath and psychotherapist originally from New J e r s e y, U S A , n o w practicing at Gaia Holistic Center in Ubud. She has a professional record that looks worthy of being thematized into a beatific mosaic inside a Roman c a t h e d r a l . Extraordinarily equable, she has no room for self-serving in her practice; her strength and focus begin and end with her patients in mind and soul. She’s been wholly forged into her vocation; a special phenomenon in any professional sphere or era. Twenty years ago in Hawaii, her naturopathic clinical internship instructor made her peel mangos without breaking the skin in two, and had her forty-five kilos routinely lug around a bulky hose to water the vast gardens. The point was to make her fully present when consulting her patients and the nature of their diseases. And she bites off exactly what she can chew. She gives me some good old ‘tough love’ then mollifies the loving abrasions with her novel, perhaps atypical approach to healing.

Aiding the terminally ill for over twenty years has delicately refined Dr. Cathirose’s tough New Jersey tongue. Her takehome message? Whether we sound the alarm, cue the drummer, strum the eternal lyre, or just listen in silence, it’s forcefully all the same. It sounds something like this: “I don’t know, and nobody else knows. We know a few things. Let’s look at what we do know.” We do know that carcinogens are causal (sorry: smokers stop smoking; barbecuers stop barbecuing), as with some radiations. But since the body works uniquely and reactively in what Dr. Cathirose refers to as ‘ratios,’ that is, the introduction or substitution of nutrients affecting other ratios of other body parts in different ways, she is carefully hesitant to grant any therapy principal status. Therefore, when we speak about antioxidants or cruciferous veggies as malignant preventers, when we consider chemotherapy or Gerson’s dietic therapy, we must boldly look over and face what Dr. Cathirose faces everyday: the unconfirmed evidence and terminally fragile people.

“Everybody who’s alive has cancer in a sense,” her eyes wide and true. “We all have abnormal cells capable of growing uncontrollably. But the body deals with them until it doesn’t anymore.” We began our conversations on her purple patio in the Socratic tradition, by discussing the popular symbolism of particular terms, here in our context the dubious character of the word cancer. Each concept of cancer has different representations for each person; thus when cancer is discussed, in general or in particular, people are often talking about different things, she tells me. “Cancer is a term that refers to many different diseases, over 100, granted they have the common thread that cells with normal growth start to become uncontrolled.” Without pointing any fingers, she reveals the dim result, that the public suffers from an umbrella term instead of the information it needs to prevent the deadly disease, preventions which she says are overwhelmingly possible in different types of cancer, for example: smoking’s connection to lung cancer. Moving beyond mere terms, she is more interested in what really, actively sparks this uncontrolled growth of cells that run rampantly beyond the body’s regulatory power. For Dr. Cathirose, it is unconditionally imperative that we not only gain a sense of mindfulness but that we utilize it to make measurably deliberated choices, choices whereby we weigh all apparent options, when it comes to our very own health and futures. She also has a bone to pick with those in her field who stake claims of universal remedies without irrefutable verifications. The aim of all reasonable data testing is to seek a robust methodology by exposing the difference between correlational data and evidence. There’s a key difference; and the key to evidential data is uniformity, she adds. Risk factors have strong correlations with certain diseases, but correlational data is premature evidence, so it’s not evidence at all. For medical evidence to hold its own water, and for malignant causes to be unquestionable causes, it must reduce all tested factors to one causal effect. Her professional field looks for a 95% rate of statistical proof for a cause to be deemed universally true and used with confidence in the medical literature. But no one offers any treatment with such substantiated confidence. This is why patient trust in their treatments is so utterly vital; this is where mindfulness ought to come into full play. When therapy promoters don’t harness enough evidence, they rashly exercise ‘confirmation bias’ and find all the data available to complacently confirm their own claims without philosophically weighing both sides of the issue and procedures evenly. Be you practitioner or patient, “To be able to say ‘I don’t know’ is scary; it’s hard to live that way,” she says.

Around this point in our discussion, a haze of cloudy uncertainty took shape and a classic epistemic question arose, the question of mind versus matter. In philosophy of mind exists a core debate in this regard, an epic theoretical battle between the immaterialist and materialist camps. Descartes thought that there is much to be doubted in the physical world, and that what we by rote think is true, is usually what we take for granted without proper knowledge. He looks over a piece of wax, and records its characteristics as he perceives them through his senses. He smells and feels it, looks over its size and color. But when he brings it to a flame, it loses these qualities; nevertheless, he still deduces that it is still the ‘same’ piece of wax. He concludes by choosing the faculty of judgment over sense perception as the proper means of grasping the nature and constituents of our world. The materialists work in the reverse manner. Instead of explaining the physical world in terms of the mind, materialists like Quine and d’Holbach before him explain the workings of mind through what can be explained via material confirmations.

What’s the useful difference here in regards to our discussion? This immaterial-material issue begs the question of granting precedence to the power of mind or biochemical considerations. Despite the squabble, it appears commonsensical to take an even-handed approach. But when we lose faith, say, in either side, in either industry, finding the power of mind camp to be insubstantial and fluffy or finding the biochemical camp to be mechanically greedy, for example, we tend to take radical stances that sacrifice too much vital attention to one side. In dire situations involving terminal illness, it seems wise to holistically assess all promising options and lucid data: as much as our peace and energy permit.

Taking sides is a harsh measure of warfare, and we ought not to declare war on our own bodies, as the ‘war on cancer’ lingo ubiquitously advertises. Any old man still traversing the rough streets can tell you that diffusing an ill situation does not entail declaring fanatical warfare but requires the profound strength to exercise the peace to see things clearly and distinctly. Through the clear humility of the old man’s intention, the loser sees his own weak and hostile absurdities. “So, how much of it is mind over matter?” I finally queried. Dr. Cathirose’s response was swiftly ready. “Fifty percent of what we would call ‘beneficial results’ are significantly due to placebo effect,” she said. She rendered the example of antidepressants and claimed that between pharmaceuticals, St. John’s Wart, and placebos there marks only a 4% difference between their effectiveness to deal positive user results. After hearing this, I was less surprised and more intrigued to hear about her curiosities and philosophy of healing. Dr. Cathirose is a masterful synthesizer of data and mindfulness. Currently one of her main interests is the growing exploratory field of psychoneuroimmunology; a long word and field that looks at the interactions between psychology, neurology, and immunology, as represented in its name, and assesses each of their interactions with diseases. Her approach is ‘integrative scientific’—a smart combination of allopathic and complementary therapies, and her work judiciously blends her knowledge of Western naturopathy and psycho-investigations with an Eastern posture of mindfulness associated with karmic law and downright commonsense. In all her tireless, voluminous naturopathic toils (she showed me brutal quantities of data that she streamlines and organizes for medical publication), Dr. Cathirose intimately engages a more holistic, self-empowering method of attacking malignancy than ordinary treatment. There is the important innate inclusion of existential elements in her practice, whereby patients develop a sense of responsibility for their personal health through a dynamically controlled convergence of science with luminous possibility and conscious engagements. As a result, her patients receive a sober approach of the most efficacious kind: a rare no-nonsense experience steeped in cultivating patient-mindfulness so patients can take express control of their health while very pertinently utilizing academic essentials from the Western sphere.

She provides a clinician’s guide to her assessments in her notable book Mindfulness and Healing. In it, she says that how we address symptoms and how we heal is not the same. “It’s critical to distinguish the two,” she says. “It’s critical to ask: ‘What are we doing here?’” In her discussion, she weighs the sensitive differences between the acceptance and allowance of chronic conditions. Allowance carries a choice of conscious persuasion: we may either allow or disallow conscious engagements with diseases, that is, we entertain or ignore them. But with acceptance we recognize and acknowledge the reality of the conditions: we accept them for what they really are. After a patient accepts the apparent facts of their illness, they can deliberately move on with Dr. Cathirose from there. With vigorous presence, she looks through to me: “You’ve accepted. Now what do you want to do about it?” she thrusts and probes, somehow, in the most devoted and tender way.

By Captain Su

Party like a Pirate “I love Phinisi boats. They are big and beamy and have plenty of room and are very safe. Hardly felt the boat move at all.” Happy customer on Pirate Dinner Cruise. Sunsets in Bali are surreal. Even more so when you are on the upper deck of big Phinisi yacht leaving Benoa Harbour with a whole bunch of people dressed as pirates. Underneath the iridescent skyline are the emerging lights of Tanjung Benoa that sparkle amid the wailing of the mullahs calling the devout to prayer. The occasion is memorable and is only the start of the Pirate Dinner Cruise party put on by Sea Safari Cruises. It is a two hour twilight cruise that packs in so much entertainment and food and drink that you are disappointed when you get back to the dock. Said one happy punter, “I love Phinisi boats. They are big and beamy and have plenty of room and are very safe. Hardly felt the boat move at all.”

Pirate Dinner Cruise - two hours of fun This is a g r e a t experience and is a lot of fun. Safe for kids too and s a i l i n g around Benoa Harbour looking like a pirate is a good idea. Fancy dress works and brings people together much quicker that a normal party. So you get a chance to meet people from all over the world and swap stories. It is a bit hard to brag about your own culture when you are looking a pirate. Don’t worry you get the black skull and bones pirate cap and a black eye patch when you check in. Bali appears very confusing to the pampered western psyche that come here to holiday or to live. But this night is well organised. You make a booking by email, a bus will pick you up and take you to Sea Safari Cruises dock at Benoa Harbour. You then check in around 5.00pm to 5.30pm, get your free welcome drink and pirate gear and are taken on board the sv Sea Safari 9. You can hang outside on the deck or if you want to cool off before the entertainment starts you can head straight for the enclosed air conditioned lounge. The boat leaves the dock around 6.00pm and you are disengaged from the hurdy gurdy of Bali. Truly a place surrounded by ocean is often best observed from the ocean. As the boat is heading out there are a myriad of other boats coming and going that makes for interesting photography. After enough navel gazing you are woken by the Live Music Show happening on the upper deck bar. Citra a singer from Java and keyboard player Dayut from Bali start the show with you guessed it, “Another Day in Paradise”, by Phil Collins I think. The keyboard has a big fat synth sound that compliments the psychedelia of the sun set and beyond. Their first set is not a long one because they have to make room for the Belly Dance Show. This is good fun and the two dancers work well together to put on a good performance.

Although having spent quite a bit of time in the Middle East I think you need those big wide hips to get the synergy right. Well that’s enough entertainment I am hungry. The pirate crew will gently prompt you and escort you to another deck where the food is served. Good selection of food, salads and fruits. The best bit was the ice cream that was bought unasked for after the plates had been cleared away. Eating ice cream on a Phinisi boat in the middle of Benoa Harbour at sunset. Pinch me pinch me.

Fire Show A f t e r dinner on the upper deck the s h o w starts again. Citra and D a y u t sing a mixture of songs both English and Indo all with a Java beat. The mirror ball scatters coloured crescent moons across the deck. Citra works the crowd very well and tries to get the customers to loosen up a bit. They look happy as a light cool breeze floats over the dance floor. The Indo songs get the punters moving. Again the set is short and on comes the very brave Komeng the bare chested fire dancer. Up close this is not passé. With the sun firmly set the night sky quickly darkens. This increases the dramatic effect of the fire dancing. It is fast and frenetic and the dragon breathes are a treat and as one crew member said, “Komeng has magic.”

C/E/G-17 April 13

Karaoke : You Gotta Try it Once Well I am getting a bit hot being outside and close to fire so let’s head for the air conditioned Karaoke Lounge. Now some people think karaoke is not cool. But if you haven’t tried it you should. You get a list of songs, hundreds and hundreds, you pick one you want to sing along with and key in the song number on the computer and bang up comes the vid on huge flat screens with the lyrics for you to amble over. One punter sang, “To the Moon and Back” by Savage Garden and looked like he was having a good time. Feel, the fear and do it anyway as a wise elder said once. In between all this is a series of party games that always work. I love the conga line and it’s even better if you get a prize.

Back to Reality Before you know it the boat has docked at 8.00pm and it is time to be taken back to your hotel. Some Bali trips and tours etc are quite long and sometimes all day events. But the Pirate Dinner Cruise is quick and jam packed with fun and not too tiring. The kids would love it and it is not expensive at $45 for adults, kids a little less. For that you get picked up and dropped off, free pirate gear, a welcome drink at check in, live music, live belly dancing, a fabulous meal and get to eat as much as you want, brave Komeng’s fire show, party games, karaoke and don’t forget the ice cream.

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) My mother used to covet her tall red and white cans of Italian amaretti cookies often presented to her for a birthday or Christmas. Each crunchy cookie was individually wrapped in crisp matching paper. Recently Sandeh brought me a package of these beauties on a return trip from Italy. The only problem was that they disappeared way too quickly. There was nothing else to do but try to make them myself. My first batch spread and came out pretty flat but it didn’t take away from the flavor and the fact that they kept well in a well sealed jar for ten days. I’m sure they could make it longer if there were no cookie monsters about......

AMARETTI COOKIES

C/E/I-22 August 12

Directions: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking sheets with either baking parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly butter. Finely pulverize the almonds in a food processor or use already ground almonds. Add caster or finely ground sugar to the almonds and process until well mixed. In a medium sized bowl beat the egg whites with the creme of tarter until soft peaks form. Add the almond extract and continue beating until you have stiff peaks. Gently fold in half the almond sugar mixture and then the other half. Using two teaspoons, drop small mounds of the dough about 3 cm apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a rack and then store in airtight containers. With all your might resist eating them when cool enough to handle. I have repeatedly failed at this, but will try again with the next batch.

Makes about 30 cookies Buon Appetito! Ingredients: - 2 cups slivered almonds or 1 1/2 cups ground almonds - 1 1/2 cups caster sugar or Bali white sugar ground medium fine in a food processor - 2 egg whites - 1/8 tsp. creme of tarter - 1/2 tsp. almond extract - butter for greasing either parchment paper or aluminum foil

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE APRIL 17 - MAY 01, 2013

This fortnight we are in the first of our series of eclipses and it promises be an exciting ride as the new moon on the 10th was in Aries and the Full Moon on the 26th is eclipsed in Scorpio. Mars fresh in Taurus is conjunct the Sun on the Full Moon and has now parted company with his cohort Venus, although she is still in Taurus, along with the South Node. The Full Moon is close to Saturn and the North Node. This powerful opposition highlighting the emotional recognition of the shadow and in particular within our male/female relationships and not excluding the inner balancing of them that is required at this time. There is a supportive trine aspect between these Scorpio planets and Neptune and Chiron in Pisces and a sextile to the Taurus ones. What that means is that the healing potentials of kindness, compassion and forgiveness are extremely high. Pluto and Uranus are now just over a degree apart and the stresses and challenges are apparent. Taking the next step on your souls evolutionary journey requires that you release the next layer of fears and these are bubbling to the surface with ease now. Mercury joined with Uranus at the beginning of this fortnight and as its lower octave, triggered it into action. Aries is all about taking action and Uranus makes that action revolutionary and unpredictable. You are impulsed to make changes that bring more abundance into your life and into the lives of All.

C/E/G-17 April 13

FULL MOON 5 Scorpio 46 April 26, 2013 3:58 a.m.

ARIES Although most of the planets have now left your sign, Uranus will remain for the long haul until 2019 and Mercury until the end of this fortnight. Mars in Taurus is bringing some luxurious living and sensual connections. Saturn though is ensuring that these liaisons are integral in nature and that you take full responsibility with your sexual expression. Saturn in Scorpio has a way of ferreting out the truth in all situations, so keep your affairs above board. Your reactions to communications remain a little on the argumentative side although you do have a higher level of patience than usual, which is always a good thing for people like you. TAURUS The Sun entered Taurus on the 20th and Mars and Venus also hover close by. This can be a very sexy and sensual time, when a lot of groundwork can be covered within your primary relationships. Although you may have your trials, tribulations and challenges your staying power is exceptionally high now. This could well be the time for many of you to make commitments within your relationships. A lot of shadow work and transformation can be achieved when two people are committed to the journey of mutual self-discovery through partnership. The discipline that this requires is available to you during these weeks. GEMINI Jupiter is moving at quite a pace now and will leave your sign at the end of June and enter into Cancer. At the Full Moon she is inconjunct the North Node in Scorpio. You may find yourself in meaningful communications around the topics of tantra, sexuality, death and transformation or any of the above at this time. Remember too that the eclipse will highlight all things. You’ve been learning so much over these past weeks and in fact the months since June 2012, when Venus was eclipsed in your sign. What has been the major theme since last birthday and what is the current transition in your life? As you face your deepest fears new Worlds are available to you.

LIBRA You will not be overlooked this fortnight. Venus is in Taurus and marking her territory with strong boundaries. The masculine Mars is backing her up and you have so much support and love coming your way. Communication is assertive and you could be still feeling the influence of your polar opposite, Aries. Inside every lovely Libran is a pushy and assertive Aries archetype. Boldly own and love every aspect of your Divine and human expression. These are the days for tenderly loving the shadow aspects of being. Sometimes all they are wanting is acknowledgment and recognition. Let go of your fears and step forward in the direction of your dreams. SCORPIO This Full Moon is in your sign and eclipsed by the Sun in Taurus. Saturn close by in Scorpio is bringing discipline, sincerity and teaching to your deeply emotional self. Pluto, Scorpios ruler is beginning to pull strongly into that tense square to radical Uranus. A powerfully transformative few weeks are coming up. So much shedding of skins in the form of fear, beliefs, habits and programming. Allow the surges and impulses that move you from your heart, reshape and modify your life in ways that were previously unimaginable. If you can’t see your way through the maize, then learn to trust your intuition and gut instincts. The time for integration will come, but not until later.

C/E/G-17 April 13

SAGITTARIUS You are prompted to move in the direction of your destiny now, more than ever before. Although this may mean that you need to move away from the familiar and the known, from friends and family, this is a move that you are prepared to take. Expansion comes through journeys both inside and out. There are potent messages coming your way, as you willing share your gifts, skills and talents. Expansion of the mind occurs through understanding at the mundane level and surrendering the same into the broader perspective; the bigger picture. All of this comes at a seemingly appropriate time in your life and allows you to move beyond boredom.

CANCER This Moon cycle is in the sign of Aries with the Full Moon eclipse in Scorpio and than followed by two more through to the end of May. These are powerful transits which include the next Uranus/Pluto square. Our themes are transformation and death, revolution and rebirth, taking action verses steady holding and finally expansion, movement and seeing the bigger picture. Be patient with yourself and others. Tender kindness and gentleness goes a long way and when you lose your cool, go easy on yourself. Everyone is apt to lose it once in awhile when planets are in Aries. The Capricorn and Aries planets challenge you immensely, so there are going to be stresses.

CAPRICORN Saturn conjunct Scorpio Full Moon Eclipse this fortnight calls you inward towards purging and purification. You are no stranger to the solitary realms and if this is where you are called to go, and you probably will be, there are gifts and treasures to be found there. They may lay hidden beneath some odd debris, or tucked up in the corner of an old closet, but you have the persistence and determination to ferret them out, dust them off and polish them up. You will need these ancient skills in the next phase of your life which is coming up very soon. Be patient, be kind and particularly with yourself, as these are challenging and deeply transformative days.

LEO Things could be moving a tad too slow for your liking. The Taurus/Scorpio Planetary oppositions create a T-square to your Leo ones. Often we’d rather be out having a good time than doing deep inner work. Life moves in cycles of regeneration, of beginnings and endings. When you accept where you are at rather than fighting with it, life tends to flow a little more harmoniously with synchronicity to mark this flow. These are potent and powerful times and I cannot stress this enough. There is so much going on both beneath and above the surface of situations. If you are unable to see your way forward yet, have patience, do the work and find the joy in the simple.

AQUARIUS Uranus is met by Mercury and received his orders and meanwhile gets set to do battle with Pluto in mid-May. These confrontations are necessary in the grand scheme of things, to stretch, to grow and to challenge us into awakening and taking full responsibility for ourselves as opposed to giving or allowing others to lord over us. Honestly take a look at yourself and your unique and authentic expression and promote more of this now. At times we thought it uncool to be so vigilant and yet now we witness the freedom that comes through responsible and yet impulsive action. You are a great example of following the electric energies of these times.

VIRGO Chiron is a centaur in Mythology, and since the discovery of this asteroid in 1977, many have attributed it to the rulership of Virgo. Chiron as an immortal being was wounded in his Achilles heel, a wound that refused to heal and which lead to his decision to become mortal. You could well be feeling that these are the days for major decision making. You may also have traits, patterns or illnesses that refuse to heal, that are prompting you to look ever deeper into your subconscious, your unconscious and your habits. There is so much support in the heavens for this undertaking now, that you would be foolish to miss the opportunity.

PISCES The road has been long and at times lonely, although you are no longer afraid of being alone. Gifts are received in isolation with the Divine. If this Full Moon brings a time of retreat, welcome it and open yourself to the activations of the cosmos, compelling your soul to grow and to reveal more of its Divine Self. True healing comes in the recognition of your existence beyond the human form. Let it be in the merging then, that information is exchanged on all levels of your being and through all your bodies. Emotions are high and feelings run exceptionally deep and particularly around the Full Moon. Stand firm as the pillar of Light that you are.

Local News Indonesian Family Planning Program a Failure: Minister Health Minister Nafsiah Mboi has called Indonesia’s family planning program a failure for its inability to control the country’s fertility rate. As mentioned in the country’s Millennium Development Goals, Indonesia aimed to reduce its fertility rate to 2.1 by 2014. The rate indicates the average amount of births per Indonesian woman. In 2012, the fertility rate in Indonesia was still at 2.6. “Currently, instances of early marriage are increasing, and teenagers under 20 years old are sexually active,” she said, noting that rural areas were more likely to produce child brides. “Early marriage increases the risk of mothers dying in labor, since they are giving birth to a baby when their reproductive organs are not fully developed,” she said. Previously, Sudibyo Alimoeso, the acting chief of the National Family Planning Coordinating Board (BKKBN), voiced concern over Indonesia’s high maternal mortality rate, which recently reached 17,520 cases per year, or two people per hour. He attributed child marriage as one of the contributing factors to the number. The BKKBN set up an information and counseling campaign to provide more information about the risks of childbirth for sexually immature women, though the

program has only been introduced in non-Islamic schools. Though the country has seen a major decline in its number of child brides, 22 percent of Indonesian women aged 20 to 24 were married before the age of 18, according to a United Nations report. The report, called “Marrying Too Young,” was released in October of last year by the UN Population Fund (UNFPA) to mark the inaugural International Day of the Girl Child. It warned that 142 million girls worldwide could be married before the age of 18 within the next decade if current global trends continued. From 2000 to 2011, the report noted, an estimated 34 percent of women aged 20 to 24 in developing regions were married or in union before their 18th birthday. “In 2010 this was equivalent to almost 67 million women. About 12 percent were married or in union before age 15,” it said. It also identified Indonesia as one of 48 countries worldwide where the prevalence of child marriages had declined by more than 10 percent in recent years, but noted that the prevalence still remained high, particularly in rural areas.

Bali Traffic Officer & Customs Staff Caught on Camera Extorting Foreigner A Bali traffic officer was caught on video extorting money from an undercover journalist who violated a traffic rule and later drank a beer with the Dutchman while he bragged about other extortions that day. The cash exchange was caught on hidden camera by Kees Van der Spek, the tourist who was stopped by Sec. Ins. Komang Sarjana, a member of the Badung district police traffic unit, according to news portal Merdeka.com. Van der Spek, who is a journalist for Dutch TV channel SBS6 and intentionally gets himself involved in legal issues in foreign countries to show the problems Dutch tourists face abroad, uploaded the nearly five-minute video to YouTube on Monday(4/4). The video depicts Sarjana asking Van der Spek to come to the police station in Lio Square after he was caught driving a motorbike without a helmet. At the station, the officer informed him that while he could go to the Denpasar court to address the traffic violation, a different agreement could be reached. “If you go to the court of justice, you pay Rp 1.25 million [$128]. Here, I give you just a Rp 200,000 fine. It’s good for you,” Sarjana said, as depicted in the video. Van der Spek paid the officer four Rp 50,000 notes, then asked if he still needed to go to the court. “You don’t need to go to court, the case finishes here,” Sarjana replied, before agreeing to release Van der Spek with his motorbike and still no helmet. He reminded him to wear a helmet the next day, but said: “No problem for today, you can go anywhere in my area without a helmet. I won’t stop you again today.” When Van der Spek went to leave, Sarjana invited him to stay and have a beer. Sarjana paid for the beer using some of the money Van der Spek paid him, and bragged about how he had already extorted a total of Rp 500,000 from three tourists that day. Kompas.com reported that Bali Police chief Insp. Gen. Arif Wachyunadi said that Sarjana had been dismissed from his post in Lio Square police station.

Bali Police may charge Van der Spek with paying a bribe. Van der Spek told Merdeka.com that the experience did not make him wary of traveling in Indonesia. “I’m not afraid coming to Bali... because the place is gorgeous. There are many pleasant experiences there, which included being treated for a beer by the police who fined me,” he said. Bali authorities were dealt another embarrassing blow when a second video shot by Van der Spek hit YouTube on Thursday (7/4). Van der Spek secretly recorded a customs officer at Bali’s Ngurah Rai Airport demanding a $200 bribe. The video was posted days after another undercover shoot showing extortion by Bali Police made headlines in Indonesia. In the latest video, the undercover journalist’s team is held up by customs officials at Ngurah Rai Airport. The crew was attempting to arrive in Indonesia without necessary filming permits from the Indonesian Embassy. Van der Spek admitted he had attempted to enter the country on a tourist visa because he didn’t want to inform Indonesian officials of the purpose of his trip. The crew was told that they had to leave their equipment at the airport and pay a $6,500 holding fee. They would then have to return to the Netherlands, apply for the proper permits and fly back to shoot their segment. In the footage, a customs official approaches one of the Dutch journalists and pulls him aside for a private conversation. Van der Spek said that the official had promised that the team and all of their equipment could enter Indonesia if they hand him $200. The film then shows a Dutch man giving two $100 dollar notes to the official and shaking hands. The airport’s customs chief Ngurah Rai Made Wijaya said he had established a team to investigate the incident. (April 7th 2013)

Indonesia uses Social Media to Promote Family Planning Programs The National Family Planning Agency (BKKBN) has launched two social media accounts to promote “Generation With Plan” (GenRe) program to young people, acting Chief Sudibyo Alimoeso said here on Thursday. “We have two accounts namely GenRe BkkbN for Facebook and @GenReBkkbN for Twitter,” he said. The GenRe program aims to provide information to young people about how to plan their life carefully. The program also calls on young people to be aware of population control by conducting a healthy life and avoiding free sex. Sudibyo argued the use of social media to promote the program is relevant considering most of young Indonesians today have social media accounts. According to BKKBN`s data, Indonesia`s population in 2011 has increased by more than 241 million. The number exceeded the national projection of 237.6 million people with a growth rate of 1.49 percent per year. If the population growth rate is not lowered, the country`s population is predicted to rise to 450 million in 2045, meaning that one among 20 people in the world would be an Indonesian. (April 4th 2013) Japanese Tourist Faces 12 years in Prison for Marijuana Possession A 35-year-old Japanese tourist on Thursday (4/4) went to court on charges of possessing less than a gram of marijuana - a crime which could land him in jail for up to 12 years if he is found guilty. Store-owner Watanabe Shinichi was arrested during a police raid at a nightclub in Kuta on Dec. 23, 2012, where police said he was found to be in possession of 0.72 grams of the outlawed substance. Police said the drug was in his bag and Shinichi told them he had bought it from a man he did not know at Kuta Beach for Rp 200,000 ($21). “The narcotics were purchased by the defendant for his own use,” prosecutor Anak Agung Satya Markandea told the Denpasar district court. Shinichi had been on holiday in Bali with his wife and child but he was alone when he was arrested at the nightclub. Suroso, the defendant’s lawyer, said his client did not object to the indictment. Judge Cening Budiana, who heads the panel of judges overseeing the case, said the trial will resume on April 16. (April 4th 2013) Indonesia, Australia agree to Strengthen Defense Cooperation Indonesia and Australia have agreed to strengthen defense cooperation covering issues such as boosting maritime territorial protection, defense industry and personnel training. Indonesia’s minister of defense Purnomo Yusgiantoro said to newsmen here on Wednesday (3/4) that the meeting was the follow up of the agreement made in an annual meeting in 2012. In several meetings Indonesia and Australia have unceasingly discussed maritime security, authority over sea territory protection, defense industry and training of personnel. “We need solid coordination to safeguard the two countries` maritime territories,” Purnomo said. He said coordination would be useful in joint patrols to close loopholes that allow for crimes to happen which would potentially disrupt the two countries` defense. Purnomo said the meeting had also discussed defense industry issues such as the extension of four Hercules C130 models to Indonesia in 2012. The talks also covered an agreement for the holding of a joint exercise in Sydney this year, he said. “We have also discussed education, personnel training involving forces such as Kopassus (army`s special forces) and humanitarian missions during natural disasters,” he added. The next meeting between the two countries to discuss cooperation in the field of defense is scheduled to be held in Perth, Australia, this year. (April 3rd 2013)

Lindsay Sandiford Loses Appeal against Death Sentence

Garbage Scavenger finds Jewelry Worth Rp. 300 million, Returns it to Owner

A British grandmother, caught with 4.8 kg of cocaine on a flight from Bangkok has lost her appeal against the death sentence handed down to her and now faces death by a firing squad. Lindsay Sandiford, 56, who was sentenced to death in January after police said they found the cocaine in her suitcase lining, has 14 days to appeal to the national Supreme Court. British Foreign secretary William Hague called the death penalty for the Teesside woman “unwarranted” and “excessive”. She insisted she was coerced into carrying the narcotics and was trying to protect one of her sons, who had been threatened by a drugs gang that suspected him of being a police informant. The judges accused Sandiford of damaging Indonesia’s image as a tourist destination and weakening its anti-drugs program. On Sunday (7/7), a spokesman for Bali High Court confirmed that her appeal was refused last week, but lawyers said the formal judgment had yet to be delivered. If her appeal fails, she could ask the president for clemency. Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has commuted sentences for four drug offenders on death row since he took office in 2004. Three other Britons were involved in the plot to smuggle drugs into Bali. (April 8th 2013)

A young garbage scavenger who found several boxes of gold jewelry, estimated to be worth Rp 300 million, returned the valuables back to the rightful owner. Ahmad (17) from Situbundo, Java discovered the boxes while sorting through garbage at the Arta Ayu garbage dump in Jln Kendedes, Denpasar last Tuesday (2/4) and later reported the discovery to his boss, Made Raka. Shortly after, a woman identified only as Putu reportedly went to the dump and inquired about her boxes of jewelry. Raka and Ahmad returned the boxes once the woman could recount the individual contents of the box and after identifying each individual object. The woman rewarded Ahmad, the third of seven children, with a cash reward along with groceries. When asked about why he decided to return the jewelry, Ahmad said, “we’re trash people, but we have morals too.” (April 8th 2013)

The Bali Hotels Association planed to develop puri (palace) tour packages as a kingdom heritage plan to assist in cultural preservation on the Island. “With this tour package, tourists can learn about traditional dances, cooking, making offerings and involve themselves in other cultural activities, while they stay at residents` homes,” Executive Director of Bali Hotels Association (BHA) Djinaldo Gosana said here on Thursday (4/4). He said the puri tour package is a combination between rural tourism development and royal family activities. “We have been exploring some puris in Bali for this cooperation such as the family of Jero Kuta Palace in Denpasar, Kanginan Palace in Karangasem, Gianyar Palace, Kerambitan and Penebel Palace in Tabanan, Bongkasa Palace in Badung and Singaraja Palace,” he said. Gosana added the tourist attraction will be displayed and facilitated by the royal family compound, while BHA will help to repair palace which will be used as a place to stay. He noted that the palace tour packages could be operational by the middle of 2013 at high season. (March 28th 2013) Indonesian Woman, 83, Fights off Komodo Dragon Attack with a Broom An 83-year-old Indonesian woman has used a broom to fight off an attack from a Komodo dragon. Komodo National Park official Heru Rudiharto said the 6.5 foot long giant lizard bit the left hand of Haifha on Tuesday (9/4) while she was near her house on Rinca island. Haifha hit the giant lizard’s nose several times with a broom until it let go of her hand. Her neighbors heard her scream and drove the animal away. It took 20 stiches to repair Haifa’s hand. Komodo dragons are actually huge and heavily built monitor lizards - the largest living lizards on the planet. They mainly feed on deer and carrion. The lizards are venomous, but it was not clear if Haifa had suffered any side effects from the toxins. Komodo dragons are found in the wild in the eastern Indonesia islands, where they can grow longer than 10 feet and can weigh up to 150kg. They are at the top of the food chain in their habitat, yet fewer than 4,000 are believed to be alive. (April 9th 2013)

Bali Boy Launches Rap Career An Australian teenager who made headlines nationwide when he was arrested for possessing marijuana during a family holiday in Bali has launched a career as a rapper. The 16-year-old from Morisset Park on the New South Wales Central Coast has posted seven videos of his songs online, including one which has been viewed almost 4000 times, the Sunday Telegraph reports. The aspiring hip hop artist, who has not been named to protect his identity, spent eight weeks in a Balinese detention centre in October 2011 after he was caught carrying 3.6 grams of marijuana as a 14-year-old. The schoolboy said the experience gave him the impetus to pursue a career in music. “What inspired me to start releasing songs was when i got locked up, f***ed up part of my life and one day that will turn out to be an amazin (sic) song!” he wrote. The teenager uploaded his debut song six months ago and has said that he plans to release a mix tape followed by an album. (April 7th 2013) Bali Process Advances Fight against People Smuggling Australian Minister for Immigration and Citizenship Brendan O`Connor and Foreign Minister Bob Carr have announced the region has taken a significant step forward in combating people smuggling and human trafficking. “Minister O`Connor and Senator Carr are in Bali for the Fifth Ministerial Conference of the Bali Process on People Smuggling, Trafficking in Persons and Related Transnational Crime,” according to a statement from the Australian foreign affairs ministry on Tuesday (2/4). O’Connor, who is leading the Australian delegation, welcomed a decision to link the Bali Process with the Jakarta Center for Law Enforcement Cooperation (JCLEC). Senator Carr is co-chairing the Ministerial Conference with Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa. Senator Carr said Bali Process Ministers also agreed to set up a working group to better coordinate and direct Bali Process efforts to address human trafficking. “This new group will work with Governments, civil society organizations and the private sector in countering human trafficking and to support and protect its victims,” Senator Carr said. “It will also focus on labor exploitation aspects of trafficking which is a serious problem in the region and by connecting the Bali Process with the good work being done by a range of groups such as World Vision, the Walk Free initiative, STOP THE TRAFFIC, and union and industry groups, we will be better able to address labor exploitation aspects of human trafficking.” (April 2nd 2013)

The BizWiz Simplify business chaos… create value and release hidden profit

Carving a Niche Someone once told me there are 13,000 wood carvers in Gianyar. Or maybe it was 32,000. Naturally I believed her because that’s what we do when someone tells us something, right? Whatever the number, there are an awful lot of them and some of them really are awful, with shoddy output of long-legged giraffes and cats that even a coat of paint can’t really improve. They get a few thousand rupiah for each of them. But some of the carvers produce work that is truly exquisite; bold, imaginative works of art that optimize the grain and flow of the original timber. Some of these pieces rightly command tens of millions of rupiah. Then there are people who make a living from the carvers; I once lived next to a comfortably-rich family that specialized in taking middle-ground, ordinary-looking pieces and embellishing them with paint and cloth and baubles to command prices in multiples of their original cost. And of course there are the middle wo/men who take the raw giraffe at a few thousand rupiah, add a coat of paint and sell it at the local market or the airport for 10 times that. All these business people have customers who are their target market, and they are filling a particular customer need. If wood carving is a niche (there are also stone masons and bone carvers supplying the same target market) then the latter two examples are niches within a niche. You read a lot in the business press about the importance of niche marketing, especially if you are a small business. But I think you need to also keep in context the size of your market – it’s pretty hard to be a successful niche retailer of ballet shoes in Bali, no matter how great your product and how passionate you are about it, because your target market is very small. Whether it’s a country town in the Western world or a village in Ubud, the corner store or warung is a general provider of people’s needs. Its local niche is that it isn’t usually the fuel supplier or the doctor. However, demographics are changing this traditional store as well. It’s less and less likely now to find a young woman here in Ubud who has never been to Denpasar for a wider choice and a range of specialist shops. So a key element of defining your niche is being savvy about the critical mass of buyers you need to make it viable. This is the number of buyers you need to ensure your product takes off. As a customer base grows and as incomes rise, opportunities for niche markets also grow, and some of them are bizarre. Note this recent conversation: “My local branch of the Ubud Women’s Construction Corps is making lots of money, they are always so busy!” “That’s good.” “They are helping convert rice fields into villas”. “That’s bad.” “The Corps is now equipped with a fleet of wheel-barrows in lieu of buckets on heads, to increase their productivity.” “That’s good (especially for the niche seller of wheel-barrows).” “They are showing signs of increasing lower back pain.” “That’s bad.” “This will create a new niche opportunity for a specialist in lower back pain.” “That’s good?” What are the benefits of being a niche player? • You can focus on one set of customer experiences that you can excel at. • You and your staff can build a stronger set of core capabilities. • You can be more enthusiastic and passionate in selling your product or service • Your marketing can be more strategic, more focused. • You are likely to need only one processing system, leading to a simpler business structure. • You generally have less outlay in inventory and fittings. When you are considering your own niche opportunities, your capabilities should be a primary concern. It’s your capabilities that ultimately define the quality of your product or service. Capabilities go with your other resources you are providing (including your product and other partner resources if any) to provide a crafted offering to help your customer meet her needs. Are you providing value to your customer with

this offering? The old thinking said yes, you were, but it was goods-dominated thinking that said as you make something you are adding value to it. So who decides what is valuable? It’s not you, it’s the customer, it’s always the customer who decides if something is valuable to her, and especially so in the context of where they are using it. This is service-dominated thinking. (Someone once drove this point home to me by giving the example of a hot dog stand, and what you would need to make it successful. Our workshop team came up with all sorts of responses like, best position, best buns, best sauce and so on, but the best answer was “a ravenous crowd.” All those other things meant nothing otherwise. That’s context.) So what creates value is the combination of the resources you put forward and the resources the customer has (knowledge, skill, knowing how to eat with chopsticks) , using those resources in context. That brings you back to meeting the niche need, and that is, what is the job that the customer wants to get done? You succeed best when you add your capabilities and resources to those of your customer to co-create value. Is your offering going to be perfect from day one? If it is you’ve probably been missing the boat in terms of lost earnings. The best way to build your niche from scratch is to offer the minimum viable product you can, to a limited number of customers. Learn from their feedback. You might be lucky enough to get feedback that will have you redesign to what is more in line with what people really want, not what you think they want. Use the profits from those few sales to refine your offering for 10 times as many people. Learn and refine again. The other aspect of this cycle that I really like is that each new offering is a breath of fresh air from your earlier buyers, and gives them renewed interest in spreading the word. As is the nature of restaurants everywhere, competition is fierce and many turn little or no profit. In Ubud alone, Trip Advisor ranks 279 restaurants, up from 259 only 3 months ago. The more successful ones are certainly those that have carved a niche, while the most successful are those with a clear niche that is very focused on helping their customers meet a specific customer need, and performing that offering with service excellence. Some use fine dining, some use entertainment, some use regional cuisine, some specialise in coffee, some in organic food and/or vegetarian, some have their own groupies. Naughty Nury’s original niche was providing service excellence for the local gay community then followed by Hash House Harriers. About 13 years ago Nury’s birthday was celebrated that night with some masculine-featured women in short skirts and long hair up dancing on the tables. The Harriers were all banging their beers on the tables and other locals were swirling their martinis in joyful chorus. Then it got famous. Customer needs in a restaurant are varied and staff at the best restaurants can quickly recognize how the customer wants to make use of your resources in their context at that time. People in a hurry have a totally different service need from those out to celebrate a birthday, and a boisterous birthday celebration has a different customer set of needs from a romantic wedding anniversary. But whatever their current need, your aim as the restaurant owner has to always be striving to convert them to regular customers, who are happy to consider your place one of their “Top 3.” Is there is any aspect of developing a successful business you would like me to write about? Next issue I will be responding to a request to look at the website business model surrounding a “free” offer for songs. Is there an aspect of developing a successful business you would like me to write about?

Letters To Bali Advertiser Bad English? Dear Sir, Don’t you just get tired of the flagrant abuse of English grammar here in Bali? I am not talking about people’s speech, for sure it may be the 2nd or third language, or more, we can cut them some slack and let it slide, as native speakers we are accustomed to misuse. But I refer to the publications and even public billboard signage. Why not just get someone to check it? Right now there is a huge billboard for the latest highlevel meeting which proclaims “Enough of Inputs” Where did they get that one? The word input is only used in plural when referring to something like stereo inputs. This usage is way off base; it doesn’t make sense and is wrong. Obviously they mean “Enough Input”, or “Enough discussion”. This ad campaign is initiated by a government agency, and placed by an ad agency, then produced by the billboard manufacturers, you would think someone along the way would have scratched their heads and noticed this blatant error. At a major construction site in Bali, the sign proclaims “we apologizes for inconvenience” are they trying to use a verb as a noun and pluralize it? We can only speculate but you have to wonder, if the construction company cannot get simple English right, the meaning and usage of one word, how professional is the rest of the project. Probably the worst example is the expensive glossy publications and press that consistently use bad grammar. There is an English language weekly here in Bali that consistently uses such bad grammar that it is hard to read. Sometimes the articles simply don’t make sense; sometimes even the headline doesn’t make sense. Even the editorial is hard to follow, and this is supposedly done by the editor who obviously has a very poor command of English grammar but doesn’t realize it. Here I don’t profess to be the language police, but if you don’t know, ask, have someone check it. There are thousands and thousands of native English speakers in Bali; one would think it would be easy to find someone to proof this rubbish before it goes to print. signed Get It Right Post, e-mail, fax or bring in your letters. Please address all to Letters To Bali Advertiser. Bali Advertiser will decide what to publish and will edit as needed.

SWIMMING WITH DOLPHINS IN LOVINA

dangerous and on-going problem for dolphins.

I believe that most of us have daydreamed at some point of swimming with beautiful and intelligent dolphins. These kind creatures have folklore that stretches way into the past of rescuing humans during shipwrecks, and of following boats in distress. It is indeed comforting to know that in return some dolphins are now rescued from severe mistreatment in fishing nets and dolphin circus’ and are in kind surroundings at the Melka Hotel in peaceful Lovina to recover and be respected, in their specially adapted salt-water pools. With this comes the opportunity to meet and swim with these dolphins in clean and hygienic conditions, safely for people of all ages.

You may watch the dolphins in a show, view them in the pools, swim with them, or even have a special therapy treatment. Just being in the presence of dolphins is a rare and special experience and fun for the whole family. Plus the drive to beautiful Lovina is quite spectacular.

In the ocean, dolphins travel great distances and have complete freedom to move quickly wherever they wish to go. They can choose whether or not to interact with humans. So at Melka their space is respected. Did you know that researchers believe? • • • • • •

Dolphins have their own language with up to a trillion words Dolphin brains are larger than human brains and have 40% more thinking ability Dolphins have abilities to heal humans that we do not yet fully understand Dolphins once walked on land Dolphins use sonar to locate items and communicate Dolphins are intelligent creatures who have capabilities equal to or exceeding humans

The rescued dolphins at the Melka are called Gombloh, Ucil, John and Jack. Gombloh and Ucil is a male and female dolphin couple that performs in the shows and live in the therapy pool. They were captured by fishermen in nets and sold to a circus where they were mistreated. The hotel owner rescued them and brought them from Jakarta to the hotel in 2006. Gombloh is king of the pool. He is a warrior, always alert and watching. He hears you and he feels your emotions. Gombloh is an alpha male who rarely allows strong men in his pool. Ucil is a young female dolphin that lives with Gombloh in the therapy pool as his mate and companion. She is very feminine and loves to be admired. She is playful and fast, and surprises you from behind, nudges your body and looks right at you. When she is with a therapy patient in the water she moves to the area of the body that needs healing and weaves around the place or gently nudges the location. John and Jack are two male dolphins who play together in the other pool. John was the first dolphin to come to the hotel. He was rescued from a circus where he was living in chlorinated water and was blinded. John was beaten, his teeth were broken and he lived in a small pool where he was left to die. He was rescued and brought to the Melka where he has gained back weight and lived for two years. Jack is his younger friend who plays and swims with him and guides him around the pool. Both of them began their lives in the ocean and were caught in the nets of fishermen, a

A FEAST OF WORLD CUISINE AT ONE PRICE Many children are of course known for their picky eating. The Café at The Mulia Resort is a oneprice stop for 7 different outlets from around the globe (8 including dessert), and a fun way to get your children to experience many different flavours without worrying about cost. This impressive restaurant has 7 open world-class kitchens and food outlets like none you’ve seen before serving up Japanese, European, Indonesian, Indian, Thai, Chinese and Korean cuisines along with condiments, breads, cheeses and sides to a stupefying effect. For sure your kids will love just walking around and talking to you about the displays and what exactly is on offer (an education in itself) before settling down at one of the comfy tables to taste and enjoy. The dessert area is sure to be revisited, with its decadent but fun chocolate-fountain, impressive freshly made gelato spinning freezer and separate patisserie and crepe room. This is a culinary must do for the whole family, and a wonderful way to see which foods your little ones really enjoy.
