SCHEDULE THAT Arena Pub and Restaurant “Good food, good booze, good fun” is the slogan and it is true. When you enter Arena it has that home from home feel, warm and welcoming. It’s like being in a pub back in the UK or Australia with a bar that you can sit at and regulars that know one another. On Fridays the in-house band Crazy Horse provides the entertainment. Other bands perform on Saturday. It is a great place to hang out as the music is not too intrusive and you can still hold a conversation and enjoy the beats. If I lived in Sanur this would definitely be my local and it is worth a visit as the food is top quality and there’s a great selection of beers to choose from as well as friendly staff and regulars.

Balimoon Red Dress Run (12th September) The annual Balimoon Red Dress Run approaches once again, a charity event organized by the Rotary Club of Seminyak. Here are some of the comments from last year’s participants. ‘It was a hoot’, ‘a good laugh and a get together’ and ‘the blokes loved dressing up’. Well it is here again and it is a chance to put on your red dress, red lip stick and join the crew for a fun filled afternoon. Fun it is. There are 10 free drink stops and a swim stop along the route with live bands to complete the entertainment. All proceeds go to the Bali Seminyak Rotary Club and their good causes. Time

: 12 pm registration 1 pm run starts Where : Discovery Kartika Plaza Hotel, Beachfront Cost : IDR250,000 non members, IDR200,000 members Contact : Don 081 557 77766

Kuta Carnival (23rd September – 3rd October)

Every Wednesday, Arena plays host to a quiz for the residents of Sanur and this one certainly has some great prizes. A pitcher of margarita is up for grabs for first prize and a Bintang or sangria pitcher for second. There’s a lucky draw with a dinner voucher for two at The Village restaurant, Sanur. Not surprisingly the quiz is popular with local expatriates and visitors with twenty general knowledge questions to answer. I shall definitely be back. When

Bali 5 A-Side Soccer Charity Event (9th September) This event will kick off with soccer matches followed by a barbecue at Stiff Chilli, restaurant. All proceeds will go to the Project AWARE. AWARE divers are outraged at the results of the recent conference of the parties to the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), held in Qatar in March. Proposals to restrict trade in eight shark species failed to receive the required two-thirds vote majority, representing victory for short-term economic gain over science and the long term benefits of conversation. However sharks have recently received historic, national protections in Europe, Palau and Maldives due to support from divers and other advocates of sharks. AWARE divers worldwide are joining together to declare their concern and will put together a list of signatures demanding better shark protection to CITES Party representatives. You can add your signature at this event. This is another notable cause and great to see groups like this trying to make a difference! Where

Many of the BA readers will already know but I think it is important that we take the time to remember the reasons for the Carnival and why it is an important event in the calendar of Bali. This Carnival stemmed from the Bali bombings in October 2002 which devastated the community. The Kuta Carnival is one initiative which started in 2003 in direct response to the need to rebuild the shattered community, offering hope in the face of grief and sadness. In 2005, a repeated tragedy in Kuta and Jimbaran did nothing to curtail the determination of the local community to continue to move forward. The Kuta Carnival is there to commemorate and give respect to the victims of human violence and demonstrates that despite such evil atrocities committed communities can and do survive, prosper and become even stronger.

Travel Photo Documentary Workshop (21st – 26th September) This is a unique opportunity for professional and enthusiastic photographers to participate in an intensive five day travel photo documentary programme. It is designed for photographers who want to significantly improve their work and who are looking to take it to the next level. The core focus of the workshop is on developing the personal style of the student, approach and authorship. Students will learn how to identify stories, develop their vision, picture edit and put together a compelling visual narrative of their work. As well as class sessions with an instructor, talks and discussion with visiting professionals have been schedule. The workshop is a platform for students, instructors, invited speakers and visiting professionals to discuss the various aspects of photography, from theory, ethics and philosophy.

Weekend Market - Seminyak Square (Saturdays/ Sundays)

This year sees the eighth annual carnival and the theme this year is a ‘Heal the World’ and I think that the world really does need healing in so many ways but the focus here is on global warming, the unbalance of the ecosystem, the high volume of rubbish and so it goes on. But again it is another chance to highlight the plight of Mother Nature and we have certainly witnessed it this year with a ‘wet’ dry season. I am sure you have questioned why and the answers really are that simple - our lifestyle choices and the need for radical changes at all levels. A themed song competition paves the way for the opening ceremony which will include a performance of the winning song together with 1000 candles lit for this auspicious occasion. The Carnival also offers a variety of fun activities including kite flying, movies, beach games and more. Local and international bands will entertain the crowds with music from hip hop, punk, rock and pop, jazz, blues, ethnic fusion - music for all tastes. Sporting competitions consist of skateboarding, surfing and swimming etc. Entertainment for children includes games, clown shows and craft making as well as a playground. The food court is always an added attraction with an array of local and international cuisine from quality cafes and restaurants. It is a fantastic community event and truly shows the strength and the spirit of the Balinese community and everyone involved. It’s one of those events that is a must!!!! Where : Beach front, Kuta Time : Morning through to the evening

Metis Restaurant and Gallery (Aperochic - Fridays) This is the perfect way to end the week. A sunset experience at the Oyster Bar every Friday with DJ Marco ‘Polo’ Cecere playing soulful and chill house sets. Refreshing cocktails

Seminyak Square is a delightful enclave, tucked away at the end of Jalan Oberoi out of the way of the drones of endless motorbikes and cars. The weekend market has come to be a regular feature of the square with stalls selling a range of stuff from clothing, bags, jewellery, wallets to general knick knacks. It is a good place to pick up bargains that would be suitable birthday presents too. This market compliments the range of familiar stores including Periplus, Body and Soul, Vinotti Living, and many brand name stores as well as the usual handicraft shops. A local band One Soul provides live entertainment from 2pm with sounds including Latino, Reggae and chill out kind of music. If you fancy a bite to eat or a drink there are numerous cafes that line the ground floor. It is a great place to wander around, hang out and not worry about pot holes in the pavements or getting knocked down when negotiating the roads. It is definitely worth a visit if you like to browse and if your other half doesn’t like shopping then he can sit with a cold Bintang and read the Bali Advertiser while you browse to your hearts content!

Bruce Granquist: Mapmaker

Bruce Granquist was born in Chicago. His family moved all around the Midwest while he was growing up, and whenever he returns to the U.S. this is where he tends to gravitate. Bruce studied studio art in three different colleges, finally earning an undergraduate degree after several unsteady and circuitous years. Most everything Bruce is involved in has a connection with books and maps, professional freelance illustration, writing and book design. His illustrations have been published in more than two dozen books. Bruce also imports books from around the world to sell in Bali. In 1999 he published two maps of Bali, a 43” by 28” map which covers the whole island and another on Ubud and surroundings. What gave you the idea of becoming an illustrator? One day I was having lunch with a friend in Singapore who was working with a publisher who needed an illustrator. He asked me if I knew how to make illustrations. I stretched the truth a bit and said sure I did and I would be glad to take on an illustration project. That was in 1993. What kind of illustrations do you do? I like doing maps the best. Maps are by far the most challenging - very much like creating abstract art. I just get on my motorcycle, drive around the area to be mapped, make some sketches, and go back to my studio to figure it out. I never really studied cartography formally. When did your interest in maps begin? I started to draw before he could walk. In the 1970’s my grandfather worked for Rand McNally publishing company, and used to bring us big atlases full of maps of places that I had never heard of. I really enjoyed looking through them and trying to find unusual place names, and would try to imagine what those places were like.

topography, the locations of the villages and banjar or “neighborhoods.” In these wonderful maps even “stone fences, rivers that run during the dry season, and heathen graveyards” were all indicated. Did Bali have a road system in 1928? The only thing missing from these old maps was the modern road system found on Bali today, but the Dutch charts even helped with this. For even though most of the roads had not yet been built, the charts indicated walking paths, which were usually located along the most accessible routes between two places. Over these paths the roads were eventually built. All I had to do was to grab a chart or two, get on my motorcycle, and take off for the hills to try and follow the paths to see where they went. This delightful project occupied me on and off for more than 5 years beginning around 1994. What’s so special about your map of Bali? The challenge of mapmaking is to create an image that captures as closely as possible the reality of a place, in two dimensions. For Bali, there are mountains, deep river valleys, and a gentle alluvial plain in the south. This makes mapping the island a cartographer’s dream. However, all the dramatic light and shadowed areas of the map illustration itself makes it hard to figure out how to design the place names. For example, should they be seen as dark type on a light background or light type on a dark background? Ironically, the more beautiful the map, the harder it is to read and use it as a road map.

Personalized Hospitality Amenities a convenient solution for products & packaging

What type of lettering did you end up using? I wasn’t willing to compromise on the aesthetics, so we designed our own type font that was printed in white with an extremely thin black outline around it. As a result, the place names are legible everywhere on the map. This solved the design problem but created a printing problem. Technically it’s very difficult to print this map with its delicately outlined type. Several printing companies refused the job. Finally I got a U.S. based company to print it with beautiful results. To date they have printed more than 10,000 copies in four editions. Is it the most complete map of Bali available? The big problem in mapping Bali is that there are two naming systems being used simultaneously, one for the villages and another for banjar. This makes a road map problematic because even though a certain intersection might be in a particular village, all the signs you see identify the banjar located there (or visa versa). So maps of Bali always seem to be inaccurate. I was able to solve this problem by driving the entire road system and just jotting down the most predominate place names I saw. In the interest of making the map as useful a possible in the field, I did not differentiate between villages and banjar. This is not to say that people won’t get lost using my map, but Bali is a great place to get lost in! How may readers contact you? We are the exclusive distributors of this map on Bali. I can be reached at brucegran@yahoo.com, or you can telephone 0361-844-5845- for information on the retail outlets that carry this map.

How did you go about creating your map of Bali? I had done a number of small Bali maps for several publishers, but realized that there was a need for a large format and highly detailed topographic map to do justice to the marvelous terrain of this island. I was fortunate to get my hands on a copy of the 1928 topographic charts of Bali, 27 sheets in all, which were very detailed as to the

Stay Young and Healthy with The Latest Advances in Anti Aging Medicine

Is This The Cure for AIDS? In 1990, two scientists, Dr. William Lyman and Dr. Steven Kaali, made a discovery that should have rewritten the medical text books. These two doctors found that by using a low voltage direct current electrical potential with an extremely small current flow to AIDS infected blood in a test tube, they could deactivate the HIV virus. They first discovered this in the lab by using two platinum electrodes placed into a glass tube filled with HIV-1 (type 1) infected blood. The doctors, working at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York City, applied a direct current to the electrodes and found that a specific low current flow produced the most effective results. All of the HIV viral particles were significantly affected while normal blood cells remained untouched. Blood Electrical Therapy Deactivates HIV What does this mean? Basically it means that the cure for HIV (and other viruses) and AIDS has already been found! You may be asking the obvious questions: “But if that’s the case why is there such a huge AIDS fundraising campaign to raise money for AIDS research and an AIDS cure? And why are there so many people still suffering from HIV and AIDS?” AIDS Cure Suppressed? The answer to these questions is more about money than anything else. You see HIV and AIDS is a billion dollar industry both from the funding aspect and from the treatment of this condition. So called AIDS researchers depend largely on the money they receive from governments and from the public to keep up their “work” and to stay in the limelight by continuing to find the so called cure to this widespread problem. HIV and AIDS drugs which are heavily pushed as soon as a person is diagnosed as HIV positive are huge money makers for drug companies – the same drug companies who sponsor medical schools and hospitals, and who have representatives on the FDA. Do you really think that it serves their interests to tell you about a simple, inexpensive cure for HIV and AIDS? This explains why this information about using electrical currents to deactivate the HIV virus has barely created a ripple of interest. It was mentioned briefly in The Houston Post (Mar 20, 1991), then in Science News (Mar. 30, 1991) and later in Longevity Magazine: (Dec.1992). Since then, there has been no real fanfare or publicity of this news. Electrical Therapy Receives US Patent Dr Kaali outlined methods for treating an AIDS patient with this new therapy. After successfully treating AIDS patients, he filed for a patent on his device on Nov 16, 1990 and nine months later was granted patent #5,139,684. This is important to note because: 1. In order to obtain a patent from the United States Patent Office, Dr Kaali had to prove that the device worked as he said it did. US patents are not handed out without solid proof. 2. It usually takes years to get a patent, but this patent was given in nine months; more proof that in fact the claims of Kaali where very strong. Apart from appearing in the 3 publications I have listed above and the March ‘91 AIDS conference, this discovery seemed to vanish into oblivion. As I have stated, I believe there are many reasons that Kaali and Lyman’s discovery was suppressed following the March ‘91 AIDS conference presentation. Is Electrical Therapy Safe? Yes, blood electrification delivers less current than the AMA approved TENS units. Dr Steven Kaali, said that electricity itself has no toxic side effects. The earliest recorded medical use of electricity is in 46A.D. when the

Roman emperor’s doctor recommended treatment with the electric torpedo fish for rheumatism and gout. Benjamin Franklin also used electricity to treat people with neurologic problems. Uses Of Electrical Therapy The basis of electrical therapy involves using small amounts of electric currents to disable or kill viruses, bacteria, parasites and other pathogens (such as yeast and mycoplasmas) in the body. By rapidly destroying these organisms in your body, your immune system which has been overburdened and worn out, can now function as it should, restoring health and vitality to your body. There have been documented reports of AIDS patients literally on their deathbed being treated with this therapy and recovering to lead normal healthy lives. You see AIDS sufferers don’t die from AIDS. They die from opportunistic infections that kill them because their immune systems were so overloaded that they just stopped working. There are over 20 of these opportunistic infections and this technology kills all of them. Once it does that, the AIDS patients get well; they lead normal lives. The evidence is there but has been suppressed by the establishment. They don’t want you and anyone else to have access to this simple therapy because you will then no longer be part of the “system” and you will not need their highly expensive drugs, which will kill you in the end anyway. This therapy is not only being used for AIDS: one of the largest alternative cancer clinics in the western hemisphere has been using this therapy to treat cancer patients: they are reporting that 87% of their terminal (not mid-stage) cancer patients, who had been given up for dead, are now healed. They have clean biopsies. They are up, they are back at work. Those patients used the same therapy I am telling you about now.

How Can You Use Electrical Therapy For Removing Viruses, Bacteria & Fungi From Your Body? Electrical therapy of the blood is now simple to use: a wrist strap is attached to your wrist which contains two electrodes which are placed over your arterial points. These electrodes are connected to a small device which outputs the small electrical currents into your arteries. By using the device for an hour at a time on a regular basis, you can achieve complete blood cleansing of viruses, bacteria, parasites and any other pathogen. Once this is done, your immune system will return to full strength. Your immune system is a major player in your health and once this is revitalized, your overall health will improve dramatically. This therapy when combined with whole body detoxification and whole body ozone therapy, I believe will lead to even faster and more powerful results and to a much stronger and healthier immune system, and to a much stronger and healthier you! You can have the latest blood electrical therapy together with the most advanced medical whole body detoxification and whole body ozone therapy (EBOO) at Neogen Anti Aging in Kuta, Bali.

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

HELP!............My Child is Choking! (Part II) Gulp! If your child puts a small object in her mouth and it disappears, call your doctor or the nearest emergency room. The item could be lodged in the esophagus or it could have gone into the digestive tract. Most foreign bodies that are swallowed will pass through the digestive tract without doing damage, so your doctor may suggest letting nature take its course. In some cases, however, your doctor may recommend an X-ray to determine exactly where the object has gone, and the foreign body may have to be removed. Often this can be done with an endoscope that can be passed down the esophagus. Surgery is necessary only in rare cases when the object is stuck firmly or is large or sharp. Infant First Aid for Choking and CPR We’d all like to think that we’ll never be put in the position of having to save our baby’s life, but it could happen. Babies choke on food and toys, slip under the water in the tub or a pool, and get caught in drawstrings and curtain cords. If your baby is ever choking or suddenly lifeless, you’ll want to know what to do. This is a step-by-step guide to explain the basics of first aid for choking and CPR, but please don’t rely on it as your sole source of information. Set aside a few hours to take an infant and child CPR course to learn and practice the proper techniques. These techniques differ depending on the age of the child, and doing them improperly can be harmful. The following instructions are for babies younger than 12 months old Choking • Step 1: Assess the situation quickly. If your baby is suddenly unable to cry or cough, something may be blocking her airway, and you’ll need to help her get it out. She may make odd noises or no sound at all while opening her mouth and her skin may turn bright red or blue. If she’s coughing or gagging, her airway is only partially blocked. In this case, let her continue to cough. Coughing is the most effective way to dislodge a blockage. If your baby isn’t able to cough up the object, ask someone to call an ambulance, taxi or the local emergency number while you begin back blows and chest thrusts (see step 2, below). (If you’re alone with your baby, give two minutes of care, then call for help). On the other hand, if you suspect that your baby’s airway is closed off because her throat has swollen shut, call fro assistance immediately. Your baby may be having an allergic reaction — to something she ate or to an insect bite, for example — or she may have an infection, like croup. • Step 2: Try to dislodge the object with back blows and chest thrusts. Check your babies mouth/throat and finger sweep as far back in the mouth as you can to dislodge any foreign body. If your baby can’t clear her airway on her own and you believe something is trapped there, carefully position her facedown on your forearm with your hand supporting her head and neck. Rest the arm holding your baby on your thigh. Support your baby so that her head is lower than the rest of her body. Then, using the heel of your hand, give her five firm and distinct back blows between her shoulder blades to try to dislodge the object. Next, place your free hand (the one that had been delivering the back blows) on the back of your baby’s head with your arm along her spine. Carefully turn her over while supporting her head and neck. Support your baby face-up with your forearm resting on your thigh, still keeping her head lower than the rest of her body. Place the pads of two or three fingers just below an imaginary line running between your baby’s nipples. To give a chest thrust, push straight down on the chest 1/2 inch to 1 inch, then allow the chest to come back to its normal position. Give five chest thrusts. The chest thrusts should be smooth, not jerky. Continue the sequence of five back blows and five chest thrusts until the object is forced out or your baby starts to cough. If she’s coughing, let her try to cough up the object. If your baby becomes unconscious at any time, she’ll need modified CPR (see full instructions below). Give her two rescue breaths. If the air doesn’t go in (you don’t see her chest rise), re-tilt her head and try two rescue breaths again. If her chest still doesn’t rise, give her 30 chest compressions. Look in her mouth and remove the object if you see it. Give her two more rescue breaths; repeat the chest compressions, and so on, until help arrives.

How to Give CPR - What is CPR? CPR stands for cardiopulmonary resuscitation. This is the lifesaving measure you can take to save your baby if she shows no signs of life (breathing or movement). CPR uses chest compressions and rescue breaths to circulate blood that contains oxygen to the brain and other vital organs until emergency medical personnel arrive. Keeping oxygenated blood circulating can help prevent brain damage — which can occur within a few minutes — and death. Giving CPR isn’t hard to do. Follow these steps: • Step 1: Check your baby’s condition. Is your baby conscious? Flick her foot or gently tap on her shoulder and call out. If she doesn’t respond, have someone call the local emergency number. (If you’re alone with your baby, give two minutes of care as described below, then call yourself.) Swiftly but gently place your baby on her back on a firm surface. Make sure she isn’t bleeding severely. If she is, take measures to stop the bleeding by applying pressure to the area. Do not administer CPR until the bleeding is under control. • Step 2: Open your baby’s airway. Tilt your baby’s head back with one hand and lift her chin slightly with the other. (You don’t need to tilt an infant’s head back very far to open her airway.) Check for signs of life (movement and breathing) for no more than ten seconds. To check for your baby’s breath, put your head down next to her mouth, looking toward her feet. Look to see whether her chest is rising and listen for breathing sounds. If she’s breathing, you should be able to feel her breath on your cheek. • Step 3: Give her two gentle breaths. If your baby isn’t breathing, give her two little breaths, each lasting just one second. Cover your baby’s nose and mouth with your mouth and gently exhale into her lungs only until you see her chest rise. Remember that a baby’s lungs are much smaller than yours, so it takes much less than a full breath to fill them. Breathing too hard or too fast can force air into the infant’s stomach or damage her lungs. If her chest doesn’t rise, her airway is blocked. Give her first aid for choking, above. If the breaths go in, give your baby two breaths in a row, pausing between rescue breaths to let the air flow back out. • Step 4: Give her 30 chest compressions. With your baby still lying on her back, place the pads of two or three fingers just below an imaginary line running between your baby’s nipples. With the pads of these fingers on that spot, compress the chest 1/2 inch to 1 inch. Push straight down. Compressions should be smooth, not jerky. Give her 30 chest compressions at the rate of 100 per minute. When you complete 30 compressions, give two rescue breaths (step 3, above). • Step 5: Repeat compressions and breaths. Repeat the cycle of 30 compressions and two breaths. If you’re alone with your baby, call the local emergency number after two minutes of care. Continue the cycle of compressions and breaths until help arrives. Even if your baby seems fine by the time help arrives, you’ll want to have her checked by a doctor to make sure that her airway is completely clear and that she hasn’t sustained any internal injuries.

by Dr. Rob Revelation Paintings by Made Arya Palguna At Tony Raka Gallery, Jl. Raya Mas 86, Ubud Tel: 7816785 In his exhibition ‘Revelation’, Made Palguna attempts to depict religious miracles. To find personal miracles in Indonesia, Made believes that these revelations will only come to good people, through prayer, dreams and meditation. To conduct a holy life, like that of Mohammad or Jesus, Made feels, can lead to an epiphany. However, what is ironic in Made’s art is that he doesn’t look for these moments of illumination in a spiritually induced trance, but, rather, in the day to day activities of ordinary Indonesian people. As the works ‘Gembala’ and ‘Beauty Pose’ demonstrate, when creating a painting, Made seeks his inspiration from stories in the newspapers, magazines, television, Gembala the movies, advertising, the internet, and even from his handy-phone. Made is seeking stories which contain an element of truth and inspiration. Fragments of these stories, and images, are then collaged together, and overpainted with abstracted patterning and decoration, to create a cohesive whole. The result is an impressive kaleidoscopic representation of a spiritually inclined nation, seeking unity, fulfillment, and personal contentment. Beauty Pose New Color Windows Paintings by Peter Dittmar At Tony Raka Gallery, Jl. Raya Mas 86, Ubud Tel: 7816785 Born in Munich in 1945, Peter Dittmar came in contact with Hindu-Buddhist beliefs in the 1970s, when he went to India to explore the then current Eastern ideas that were entering the minds of Western youth in spiritual revolt. For the Hindu-Buddhist, the world is in perpetual motion, and man, Color Windows 2 as a component of this world, can only achieve release by adapting his ethics and deeds to its cosmic rhythm. Peter Dittmar’s spiritual leanings took him to practice Japanese Zen Buddhism, and his art is an expression of his Zen inspired quest for an ideal ‘stillnesscum-void’ which finds its translation in a minimalist manner. However, it would be wrong to suggest that Dittmar is a minimalist, because his paintings are more inward looking, contemplative, and emotionally driven, than to strict adherence to the minimalist aesthetic. In his previous exhibitions, Peter Dittmar aimed to evoke a sense of contemplation and stillness through carefully graduated tonal colors, which were enclosed in regular geometric squares. Those abstract geometric paintings were intended to symbolize the encounter the Color Windows 3 beholder may have with the absolute stillness of the ‘Void’, and, the works aimed to consciously evoke Hindu-Buddhist symbolism. Whether hung individually, or in groups of two, four or six, the paintings

conjured up the notion of meditative Mandalas. In all of those works the viewer was led to a central focal point through a cultured application of geometric proportions. The works combined sophisticated plays of tonal coloration and patterning, along with optical illusions created through protruding and receding space distortions. In the ‘New Color Windows’ exhibition, Dittmar takes his art one step further by physically depicting for us his concept of the ‘stillness-cum-void’. As the works ‘Color Windows 2 & 3’ show, the central focal point of each painting has been removed, and, is now replaced by a cut-out empty space. These new paintings take us ever deeper into an ultimate ‘stillness-cum-void’ of Dittmar’s making. All of his works can best be understood as vehicles for meditation. Dittmar’s paintings are not ‘colored windows’ of the visible world but are ‘colored windows’ for the mind. Mental Gerilya Paintings by Stefan Buana At Tony Raka Gallery, Jl. Raya Mas 86, Ubud Tel: 7816785 As the son of an Army officer, the life of Sumatran artist Stefan Buana has been conditioned by military ideology and imagery. His exhibition ‘Mental Gerilya’, depicts a ‘Hero’s Journey’ whilst Indonesia struggled Untitled 2 to become independent. But, simultaneously, Stefan is also suggesting that common people, like farmers, factory workers, office personnel, fishermen, artisans, and even ojek boys, can all become Hero’s as well, as they labor to unite and emancipate Indonesia. In works such as ‘Untitled 2 & 3’, Stefan builds up dense canvases with a variety of materials such as sand, butcher-paper, and found discarded objects. Into these Untitled 3 backgrounds are scratched pencil-like etchings which can be highly evocative and powerful, or pleasantly decorative. The result is reminiscent of ancient cave paintings, but, perhaps, implies a more modern day image of Indonesian tribalism. Visual Spa Photography by Stephan Max Reinhold At Hanna Art Space, Jl. Raya Pengosekan, Ubud Tel: 978216 For Stephan Max Reinhold it all started one hot and steamy afternoon by the pool. While exploring Bali on his rented motorcycle, Stephan got caught in the rain. He was soaked by the time he got back to his budget hotel, and he decided to jump into the pool. It was still raining hard. As he swam with the water at eye level, he saw for the first time the magic of drops of water hitting the surface, splashing, crowning, rebounding, and coming back down. He was captivated. He returned that night with a camera in a plastic bag, and took his first water drop pictures. This became the inspiration for his ‘Liquid Art’ photography. Now, in his exhibition entitled ‘Visual Spa’, Stephan Max Reinhold shows that magical process of the play of water, in a way the human eye cannot perceive it. He considers his

Infinity

images to be a fusion of art and science. His hallucinatory photographs, such as ‘Infinity’ and ‘Friends’, are beautiful, educational, thought-provoking, and a gentle reminder of the importance of water to our very existence. E-mail: artwords2004@yahoo.com.au

Reproductive Health & Education in Pasar Badung & Kumbasari

C/G/I-16 June 10

By Michele Cempaka “HIV/AIDS and other STDs have spread throughout Bali, yet dissemination on these diseases rarely reaches most groups of the population. Women are at risk for STDs through commercial sex work and high risk behavior of men. They are the ones who suffer more consequences due to biological vulnerability and the lack of early symptoms of many STDs in women. Other health problems affecting women, such as breast and cervical cancer, reproductive tract infections, domestic violence and maternal death are also common in Bali. The Maternal Mortality Ratio has been estimated by a recent study at approximately 112 per 100,000 live births, lower than the national level, but almost triple the levels in Thailand and Malaysia. However, women tend to put low priority on their health problems, failing to allocate time and money for seeking health care. They also tend to have less access to information than men and thus to be less empowered to act to protect themselves,” (from YRS informational material) Yayasa n Ram a S es an a (YRS) began in 1999 with the vision of developing high quality human resources among marginal communities in Bali. Their mission is threefold: 1) to improve community-based prevention and reproductive health services 2) to empower families to improve their welfare and self-reliance, especially in marginal communities and 3) to improve empowerment efforts with a view to achieving a sustainable Balinese community based on gender equality and justice. Their modest clinic located on the 4th floor of Pasar Badung, was completed in 2003, and currently services 20 - 25 women a day who are mostly local women working or living close by the pasar. YRS has recruited and trained a qualified doctor, 3 counselors/outreach workers, a nurse, lab technician, an administrative assistant/accountant and an office assistant. Their clinical services include pelvic exams, STD testing, Pap smears, antenatal care, contraceptive check ups, breast exams, counseling, treatments and referrals. In addition, through a joint project with Prima Medika, YRS is able to offer free mammograms to low income women. All of their services are provided on a donation basis, giving women the chance to make their own health a priority without worry about the cost. According to Dr. Sari, routine check ups can greatly assist women with early detection and prevention of cancer. Dr. Sari has been a strong advocate for women’s reproductive health for many years. Perhaps this is due to the fact that as a child she recalls her own father going out into the community to promote health. He frequently brought her into the village where they held meetings about family planning, sparking her interest in health. These experiences were the catalyst for her ultimate decision to become a doctor and dedicate her life to helping women with reproductive health services and education. Since YRS is only an NGO, they are concerned with how they can sustain their projects, as the funding they receive from the Anniken Foundation covers only 75% of their operating costs; the remaining 25% comes from fundraisers and private donations.

Some people may find it strange that a reproductive health clinic is situated right in the heart of Pasar Badung, (a traditional food market in the middle of Denpasar) but YRS Founder/Director, Dr. Luh Putu UpadiSari and her team of dedicated staff are happy to be working there, because they know this is the best place to be in order to help low income women who would otherwise not seek out reproductive healthcare for themselves. Every day three staff members from YRS visit Pasar Badung and Kembusari Art Market to disseminate information about reproductive health. In addition, they sometimes visit other markets in Denpasar by request. “We’d really like to promote the clinic more, so that women are aware of us and get routine check ups to prevent infections and other medical problems,” says Dr. Sari. In addition, every year YRS trains 20 women from the market for their ‘Peer Education Program’. About 12 of these women are active, going out every month to educate women on reproductive health. YRS monitors their progress with monthly meetings where they discuss how things are going in the field. “I have a dream that in the future all traditional markets like Pasar Badung offer services like this,” says Dr. Sari.

C/G/G - 18 Nov. 09

Dr. Sari admits that there have been some challenges running a reproductive clinic, as sex is a ‘taboo’ subject in Indonesia. As a result, they have had to be very creative about how they approach the topic of sexuality. “Another challenge that we face is finding staff that are willing to work in a traditional market, because there is a mindset that a health provider should be based in a hospital,” says Dr. Sari. Even so, the market is the best place for the clinic because of the numbers of women who come there. These women also play a potentially important function in distributing information about women’s health. In addition, a substantial portion of them may be at great risk of health problems like STDs due to low education, low income, long work hours and lack of information. In 2011, Dr. Sari hopes to expand her programs to include educational opportunities for women to learn how to read and write, as well as finding ways for them to increase their income. All of these things have a big impact on whether women are willing to make their own health a priority in their lives.

Do Balinese still believe in Black Magic? When Bali was a much more homogenous place, with less outside influence, a smaller population and a higher majority of followers of the unique Balinese brand of Hinduism, most people believed in the existence and power of black magic. No electricity, a lack of education and knowledge about health only propounded a belief in the supernatural to ‘explain the unexplained’. In fact, there were parts of Bali that we renowned for clusters of black magic practitioners— Sanur, for example, was for many a dreaded place to visit due to the presence of witches who regularly engaged in leyak (which often appeared as whirling fireballs) battles. Not only this, but people were also wary of attending art performances such as Calonarang, since brave protagonists often took it upon themselves to invite leyak witches to take part. I still hear stories from elders who said that anyone who dared to return home before the performances were finished could risk being confronted by manifestations of witches hiding in the village’s small alleyways. As this island, with its mystic Hindu beliefs and daily rituals, hurtles into the modernity of the 21st century, it’s becoming harder to see evidence of belief in the ‘dark side’. In saying this, however, even amidst neon lights, hotels, malls and clubs, many still believe in the power and existence of dark forces. In fact, I regularly hear comments—from all socioeconomic and educational backgrounds—about a family member or a friend who has been struck down by black magic; normally justified by the fact that doctors’ visits have not shown any pathological illness. I also still hear from Balinese who prefer not to visit Sanur if they can help it, or, if they do, are careful not to offend anyone. So, even though the belief is less pronounced, the black magic realm is certainly still hidden away somewhere in the darker corners of the Balinese psyche.

Fun on a Budget in Singapore By Tropical Tramp

Singapore is like that obnoxious student that everybody hated back in high school, the one that aced every exam and destroyed every grading curve. The city state’s politicians and bureaucrats have all the right answers (and some of the highest paid government jobs in the world), do everything by the book, and project an air of corruption-free competency seldom seen in the major cities of their neighbors. The usual complaint is that these righteous civil servants have created a sterile metropolis where whatever they deem unsightly or immoral – historic buildings, the poor and unwanted, the night trades the city was once famous for – is destroyed, redeveloped, prettified and rebranded. Still, if anyone returns from a visa shuffle bemoaning boredom and the lack of anything interesting to do, then clearly his or her imagination could expand no further than the usual shopping runs to Funan Centre or Mustafa’s for electronic goods, Borders and Kinokuniya for reading material and Cold Storage for affordable wines and cheeses. Singapore, if one knows where to look, is chockablock with things to do, and a lot of them can be done at a price that won’t break the bank. Here are a perfect seven that can each be done in the space of a few hours, a day at the most, and which are perfect for killing time while waiting for a visa to be processed:

Dhoby Ghaut is the Singapore MRT network’s largest and second deepest station, serving three different lines and as potentially bewildering as an M.C. Escher drawing.

• MRT & the ‘Heartland’ neighborhoods – In a city where above ground can be uncomfortably hot and humid, underground is the place to be, planners have decided, and Singapore has been expanding its network of subways and underground shopping malls. Some of these are just cavernous, such as the station at Dhoby Ghaut, now a three-line interchange for the North East Line, the North South Line and the new Circle Line (just opened this year). If you like trains or exploring modern engineering marvels, spend some time getting to know the MRT system, both the above and below ground parts. There are several light rail links connected to the network that make this the ideal way to see how Singapore’s “heartlanders” live when they are not at work, and some of their housing estates such as Ang Mo Kio, Bedok, Batok, Pasir Ris and Woodlands, are marvels of well-thought-out urban living. If nothing else, be sure to check out the Dhoby Ghaut interchange, the largest and second deepest station, which can give one the feeling of living inside an M.C. Escher drawing.

a few park benches and stragglers passing through on their way to work. This is the only place where Singaporeans can speak (almost) without restrictions, although they still have to register their intent on the National Parks Board Web site at www.nparks.gov.sg. The space was created in the year 2000 modeled on the original in Hyde Park, London, but with a few more regulations, some of which have been relaxed in the years since. Currently, for Singapore citizens, only registration is required (and not police permits), with the main proviso being that speakers don’t touch on potentially divisive religious or racial issues. From the looks of a schedule kept at letsgotospeakerscorner.blogspot.com, not many people are taking up the offer. It is still a nice park, conveniently located right next to the Clarke Quay MRT station. • Parks & Greenbelts – And that brings me round to raving about Singapore’s parks, with or without some token condonation of free speech. The island nation wants to be a world class destination for the world’s well-heeled; hence it tries to make itself in the image of an enlightened city that allows for all of its citizens’ physical, spiritual, aesthetic and intellectual needs. Viewed objectively, it really does succeed to a large degree, although it can’t quite rid itself of some Big Brother-ish overtones (creepily coming through in an MRT mobile advertisement admonishing riders to be on the lookout for suspicious persons). The parks are well-landscaped and maintained, with bike and walking trails and on-site exercise equipment at many. In the east there is a 47-kilometer biking and walking trail that links up as many as six parks, and other greenbelts or park connectors cut through areas in the north, south and west. This kind of city planning is textbook civil engineering. It’s not nature at its wildest, but it is more than is offered in Bangkok, Jakarta and Kuala Lumpur put together. To see more civic space devoted to parks you’d have to fly a few hours further south to Perth, Australia. For more information see www.nparks.gov.sg. • The Substation – Many visitors don’t see beyond the glitz and glamour of Singapore’s shopping malls, but there is a deep intellectual and cultural trend if you dig for it, and the Substation on Armenian St. is a good place to start uncovering it. From theatre and drama to modern dance, performance art, music and exhibitions, this is the place where Singapore’s alternative and independent artists get their first notices. In the café out back in the garden, Timbre@Substation, there is live music most nights. Book reservations (www.timbre.com.sg) for evening visits, although they say they keep a quarter of the venue open for walk-in customers. Even if you don’t have the time to catch a performance, the Substation is a good place to walk into of an afternoon to see what’s going on; most of the time, something is. The nearest MRT stations are City Hall and Bras Basah (on the Circle Line).

The Asian Civilisations Museum in the grand old Empress Place Building along the Singapore River is one of the city’s many fine museums.

Speaker’s Corner in Hong Lim Park, where Singaporeans are free to speak their mind … but only if they stay within the listed regulations.

• Speaker’s Corner – I couldn’t tell if any of the old-timers loitering at Hong Lim Park were government agents keeping an eye out for anyone who might stir up trouble at Speaker’s Corner, but it’s nice to think they could have been. They didn’t have anything to worry about one recent Tuesday morning, because the park was empty except for

• Museums – Right next door to the Substation is Singapore’s Peranakan Museum, formerly the Asian Civilisations Museum (now housed at the Empress Place Building along the Singapore River). Both have permanent and temporary exhibition space, with recent or upcoming exhibitions featuring treasures of the Mughals of Indian and the golden artifacts of the early kingdoms of Sumatra. Other museums worth the visit are the Singapore Art Museum, which often has traveling exhibits from some of the best museums of the U.S. and Europe, and the National Museum of Singapore. In addition there are a whole raft of private and institutional museums and heritage centers.

All are reasonably priced at S$10 or less and usually have child-focused activities that can keep the kids busy while the parents try to beat the Singapore heat. See the Web site for the National Heritage Board at www.nhb.gov.sg for a list of institutions and events. • Walking Tours – If you like to combine your history with a bit of physical exertion, try one of the walking tours listed on the Web site at www. journeys.com.sg/singaporewalks. Whether you are traipsing through the colonial districts, Little India, Chinatown or Changi, there’s not much better way to get your history than outdoors looking at the places and Any walking tour through the buildings where it was made, with knowledge- old colonial district of Singapore able guides-cum-histori- is sure to take you at least once ans leading the way. over the Cavenagh Bridge, first opened in 1870 and still barred to Tours are affordable at “all cattle and horses.” S$28 for adults, S$45 if transportation is involved, and there is at least one a day Monday through Saturday. Lonely Planet says: “If you just do one tour in Singapore, make it one of these.” • Other Islands – Then what’s better when going to one island than going to another smaller, littler island? There are approximately 60 islands in the waters surrounding Singapore, and while some have been set aside for military training and others for industrial use, a few are available for camping, diving and other activities. Sentosa is probably the best known, but skip that duded up beach, casino and golf resort and head to Pulau Ubin in the east (www. wildsingapore.com/ubin) or Kusu and St. John’s islands in the south (www.islandcruise.com.sg). Bumboat ferries leave from the Changi Village ferry terminal in the east to Ubin, and daily ferries run from the Marina South Pier to Kusu and St. John’s. See a different side of Singapore than one usually gets on the “mainland,” and on the boat ride out and back, take the opportunity to view its famous shipping lanes. Cycling and overnight camping are available on Pulau Ubin (cheap overnighter!); Kusu has both Chinese Buddhist and Malay Muslim holy sites; and St. John’s has a history as a leper quarantine station and a penal settlement. Only Pulau Ubin has places where you can be guaranteed to get food and drink; you’ll need to carry food, water and everything else for your needs on visits to other islands. See www.wildsingapore.com/places for more information and for other outdoor experiences available in Singapore, both on and off-island. If these suggestions don’t spark some ideas, check out the events calendar at the new Web site, www.insing.com (in Beta testing and a bit quirky), one of the most comprehensive events listings of what’s on in Singapore. Another place to get ideas is www.esplanade.com, with listings for more mainstream arts, music and drama performances than you would see at the Substation (www.substation.org); on the Esplanade site also keep an eye out for the free outdoor concerts that are offered most weekends. Other general listings can be seen on www.singapore.angloinfo.com, www.timeoutsingapore.com and the Singapore pages on www.whatsonwhen. com. In Singapore, even if you are on a tight budget, there should never be an excuse for sitting on your hands in your hotel room pining for Bali. It may not be a jungle out there, but there is still plenty to do and plenty to see if you’ll only venture into the island’s urban wilds.

Biographies as Travel Writing- William Dalrymple “At its best travel writing beats fiction, firing the imagination with tales of foreign peoples drawn close by our common humanity.” Ruaridh Nicoll, Observer. By Uma Anyar William Dalrymple will be paying the Ubud Writers & Readers Festival a second visit this October, promoting his latest book Nine Lives: in Search of the Sacred in Modern India. Dalrymple is one of the most productive, curious and multitalented writers on the Asian scene. He has been a South Asia correspondent for the New Statesmen since 2004 and is a fellow of The Royal Asiatic Society and The Royal Society of Literature.

His latest book, Nine Lives: in Search of the Sacred in Modern India won the Asia House Award for 2010. This collection of religious biographies may be Dalrymple at his best. It is a return to travel writing but it adheres to his principle as it is about an India he knows well and has studied ardently for decades. His interests in religions, politics and history merge with his foreign correspondent skills and produce a provocative read. What makes people believe the things they believe? How does that belief affect their lives? There are stories of a repentant Buddhist monk and of a privileged girl who joins the Jains and takes to the road after pulling out each hair on her head one by one. There are a variety of unusual people each with a story more astonishing than fiction. Dalrymple relies on the power of story to guide the readers to their own conclusions. I strongly agree with Ruaridh Nicoll who writes in the Observer. “It’s a strange thing: at a time when the row between Richard Dawkins-style atheists and fundamentalist Christians grows increasingly wearisome, Nine Lives celebrates faith’s ability to offer peace and sanctuary to those who have suffered horrifying lives.”

He hails from a prestigious family. His father, Sir Hew Hamilton-Dalrymple, was 10th baronet and cousin of Virginia Woolf. Writing must have been part of William’s family heritage. He was born in Scotland in 1965, attended Trinity College, Cambridge and wrote his first travel book, In Xanadu, at age 22. The book covered his travels from the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem to the site of Shangdu (now part of Inner Mongolia) and long referred to as Xanadu in English literature. Indeed, my first acquaintance with the notion of an exotic Xanadu entered my consciousness via Coleridge’s poetry rather than in a geography class. “In Xanadu did Kubla Khan his stately pleasure - dome decree: where Alph, the sacred river ran through caverns measureless to man, Down to a sunless sea.” Dalrymple credits Lord Byron and Bruce Chatwin as influences on his travel writing, but thinks the genre has changed since the heyday of the 1980s and 90s. Since then the publishing industry has produced too many mediocre, and some very bad, travel books. Travel guides to just about anywhere pack the shelves of bookstores. Mass travel has turned tourism into another consumer product shrinking the world into bite size pieces of experiences. Dalrymple thinks that the time for a new approach to travel writing has arrived. He has said, “the epic journeys, often by young men, conveying the raw intoxication of travel during a moment in life when time is endless, and deadlines and commitments are non-existent is fading. Instead, it lies in the writings of individuals who have made extended stays in places, getting to know them intimately”. Dalrymple’s passion for travel writing expanded to include TV documentary shows. He has written and presented a BBC series Stones of the Raj, 1997, and Indian journeys 2002, then turned his attentions to British/Indian history. White Mughal, 2002 and The Last Mughal, The Fall of a Dynasty, Delhi 1857, in 2006. Both were award winning and great historical reading for anyone interested in British colonial history, particularly the situation of the Indian Rebellion of 1857 and the subsequent downfall of the last Mughal, Bahadur Shah Zafar.

C/U/G-25 August 10

With Nine Lives Dalrymple has added a whole new dimension to the book tour. He isn’t just signing copies of his book in bookstores, but putting on a multi media event. Since publication, he has been touring the UK, India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Australia, Holland and the US with a band consisting of some of the people featured in his book including Sufis, Fakirs, Bauls, Theveram hymn singers as well as a prison warder and part-time Theyyam dancer widely believed to be an incarnation of the God Vishnu. Months on the road with an ensemble of unique characters can’t help but produce a sequel to Nine Lives. His projects do not just promote his writings, as he is also the founder and co- director with Namita Gokhale of the Jaipur Literature Festival. He decided something had to be done since he was meeting more Indian writers who were winning Bookers and other awards at festivals in Sydney, Australia and Hay-on-Wie in Great Britain, but there were no festivals in India itself. That has been remedied as the Jaipur festival has grown into the largest free festival in the world.

C/He/G-13 Jan. 10

William Dalrymple’s love affair with India has lasted over 25 years. He lives most of the year on his farm Mehrauli outside New Delhi with his wife, the artist, Olivia Fraser, and their three children. Dalrymple’s farming neighbors consider him to be lax in animal husbandry, as he does not bundle his incestuous family of goats in used cardigans and wool mufflers in cold weather. Indians fear catching chills and apparently extend that concern to their goats. Dalrymple may not be the best goat herder but he is a prolific writer and multi-tasking guy par excellence as he shows no sign of slowing down to smell the roses or… the goats.

Ubud THE WORLD IN A DROP OF WATER There are just a few more days of Stephan Max Reinhold’s Solo Exhibition, Visual Spa, at Hanna Artspace, next to the Pengosekan gas station, then fortunately several of the works will move to Infinity Gallery on Jl Monkey Forest. Stephan captures, in the split second of single drops of water connecting with the surface, vivid and intense images. People are said to notice more when they are in love, so that might be it; I’m not normally a reflective person, but I found myself smiling in front of one of these images, totally still, in total delight and fascination. Eventually I moved onto the next image, and the next, until I came to the last. And started again. InfinityGalleryBali@ gmail.com. HP 0812 364 9300. OMG IS THAT A SNAKE? The XL Shisha Lounge, with its delicious assortment of Shisha pipes, has a bold new weekly program starting this month. The place was named after the tall Dutchmen who started it, so Wednesday’s XL Night, with extra large everything, including a widescreen TV, XL beers, and seafood kebabs and burgers at “XS” prices, is a perfect fit. But you’ll have to ask owner Herman where the inspiration came from, for Saturday night’s Sensual White Snake Dance! Bar & kitchen open till 3 am. info.xl. shishalounge@gmail.com. Jl. Monkey Forest 129 (behind the football field) 0361 975751. TAKING BAMBOO CAFÉ UP A NOTCH Meanwhile, Ubud is starting to see new bands popping up in venues all over the town. One of the best surprises is Bamboo Café, opposite Tutmak Restaurant on Jl Dewi Sita. Though often exuding the friendly sound of singing in the late evening, it’s mostly been a very quiet place. Now with new management, a small stage and good live music every night, Bamboo is drawing lots of interest. Ubud’s prince of barmen - Agung the extreme bartender - has moved from his former haunt at Ozigo, and there’s room for a dance if you feel like it. PUTTING ON THE NET AT HOME Looking for home internet connection? A satisfied Ubud customer recommends Bali MediaNet. She’d assumed they only served Southern businesses and would not help her, north of Ubud, but saw a service van in Ubud and gave them a call. Within days they tested the connection and installed a small, powerful radio receiver on her roof. A free trial period ensured that the connection was enough for her needs. So now she’s set, “even when it rains or in ‘peak times’ when the old connection used to sputter or die”. And if she moves, they’ll move the antenna for her, free. http://www. balimedianet.com. Phone: 0362 7421099 BAMBOO TO BRASS Pengosekan-based international music and dance ensemble, Cudamani, is in the final stages of creation of their new work “Bamboo to Brass” which will tour west coast America in October. As part of the process of creating the work, which follows the development of Balinese musical instruments from the very early bamboo pieces to today’s gamelan, Cudamani co-Directors Emiko Susilo and Dewa Berata invite some of Bali’s most respected masters of traditional music and dance to observe rehearsals, comment and suggest changes. It’s a process that adds extra richness to the final offering. Email: cudamani@ gmail.com.

Geckos Combine to Form New National Team

In a historic move the Bali Geckos Australian football club will join with their arch rivals the Jakarta Bintangs, to represent Indonesia at the Asian Australian Rules Football Championships in Shanghai in October. The Geckos have a very proud history in the championships, making the finals for the past five years and being runners-up three years in a row. For the past two years, the Geckos have been defeated in the semi-finals by Dubai, who went on to win the event on both occasions. Due to the distance and subsequent flight costs for this year’s event, the Geckos were unable to get the 20-plus number of players required to compete in the one-day, round robin tournament, so have joined forces with Jakarta. “It is disappointing that we will not be playing as the Geckos, but it will be great to represent the national Indonesian team” said Geckos President Mark Parthezius. The new Indonesian team may also include players from the Balikpapan-based Borneo Bears. The teams are now working on the design of the new jumper as well as the team name, with Bulls, Komodos or Garudas in the front running. In addition to the newly formed Indonesian side, the Asian Championships will this year have 10 other teams from across Asia competing for the title of Asia’s best Aussie Rules team: Malaysia, China, Hong Kong, Japan, Laos, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and Dubai. This year’s Asian Championships will coincide with the World Expo and for the first time in the event’s 11-year history, the sport’s governing body the AFL will this year be involved in the tournament. Local children and university students, who are a part of the AFL Community Program in Shanghai that involves 500 children at five schools and two universities, will be involved in games and activities during the tournament. Additionally there will be an exhibition game between professional AFL teams Melbourne and Brisbane, who will play off for the Kaspersky Cup on the day following the tournament. In the lead up to the event, the Geckos are preparing to host the Bali Nines Australian Football Championships, to be held at Canggu Club on September 18. Teams from Jakarta, Timor Leste and Balikpapan as well as the Geckos will participate in the tournament, held this year for the tenth time. The first game will commence at 12.00pm, with matches played all afternoon and a twilight final scheduled at 5pm. Entrance is free, and food and refreshments will be available. For further details email coach@baligeckos.org. New Rugby Competition in Bali The Bali Sports Foundation has been very busy supporting the setting up of the island’s first ever Junior Rugby League. In addition to running open coaching sessions across the island, the foundation has organised and trained teams near Ubud. The ‘Tegallalang Tigers’ Rugby Club involves players developing the basic skills of rugby, learning both League and Union. Training is regimentally adhered to by players every Wednesday afternoon after school, where the players hone their skills and learn new techniques and drills every week, despite a lack of basic equipment. A new league for these players has commenced, with three different divisions catering for players of different age and ability. Modified rugby league laws apply to all divisions, including a two-hand touch for younger players. These laws are followed to assist

the development of the key skills required to play the game. Once the Junior Rugby League reaches it’s second season in 2011 then it is planned to use less modifications in games. Junior Rugby League coaching sessions are also being held at Samudra field in Kuta, where players can join the newly formed Kuta team, the Kuta Corsairs , between 2-4pm on Saturdays. The Bali Sports Foundation is also planning to hold weekly 3-on-3 basketball games, open to all ages and genders commencing at the end of September. These games will be used as a means to scout promising players under 15 years of age to represent Bali in a future tournament in Singapore. For more details on this and other programs by the Bali Sports Foundation, email info@balisports. com. C/U/G-25 August 10

Monthly Netball Match in Bali The Bali Flames Netball club has organized for a monthly showdown between Bali-based players representing the East and West sides of the island. Aiming to attract more players, play more games and inject more fun, the club has organized for the games to be held 6pm on the first Tuesday of every month at Bali International School. Players will represent the Sanur Dragons and the Seminyak Fireflies, with an end of year trophy awarded to the team that accumulates the most wins during the season. For more details on these games as well as other training times, email rebeccahamer@hotmail.com. Padang Padang Fails to Fire World-renowned Padang Padang on Bali’s Bukit peninsula failed to live up to its reputation and deliver the world-class waves required for the 2010 Rip Curl Cup Invitational. Even with an unprecedented five-week waiting period during prime swell season (July 25 - Aug. 29), the waves at Padang Padang never reached the world-class caliber required to hold what organisers have dubbed the Ultimate Tuberiding Contest. Event organisers have closed the event and are now looking towards next year. The goal of the event was to see 32 of the world’s best tube riders competing on the best day of the year at Padang Padang, so holding the competition in moderate conditions was not to be an option for the contest. Organisers also ruled out moving the event to nearby waves at Bingin or Uluwatu. On two occasions during the waiting period, large west swells prompted event organizers to place the event on standby. While Padang certainly dished out some memorable waves for the 32 professional surfers gathered in Bali during these swells, the conditions were never consistent enough to hold the contest. In other surfing news, the Government of Rote Ndao and Billabong Indonesia have announced that the the Rote Open 2010, a 6-Star Coca-Cola Indonesian Surfing Championship sanctioned surfing event will boast a massive prize pool of $US20,000. Held from September 13-19 on the Eastern Indonesian island of Rote, the event will feature five divisions of competition - Open, Master, Women’s, International and Local-Rote – and will attract the top surfers from Indonesia and beyond to the world class waves found on the island. New to this year’s event is the addition of an International division, where foreign surfers will compete against the top 16 finalists from the ISC Open Division for almost $10,000 in prize money.

GREENSPEAK by Ibu Kat

BALI’S TRADITIONAL HEALERS, THE BALIANS The book and movie Eat Pray Love have turned the spotlight on balians, (dukuns/shalmans) the traditional healers who play an important part in Bali’s culture by treating physical and mental illness, removing spells and channeling information from the ancestors. Travelers seem to have added a visit to the balian to their Bali ‘must-do’ lists, right along with snorkeling, a cremation ceremony and a trip to the spa. But a visit to a balian is a serious matter, not a tourist sideshow. The balian is an instrument of divine healing, and the client enters a covenant to receive this healing with respect, reverence and humility. Ask yourself why you want to visit a Balian -- out of curiosity? To learn a little about traditional healing arts? Because you are ill and genuinely need a healing?

“There are plenty of bogus Balians out there,” Surya warns. “Be guided by personal referrals.” There are four kinds of Balians. The first kind is a Ketakson who acts as a channel between the client and God. Ketaksons evoke the spirit of a dead person, and pass on information to the family about what kinds of offerings are needed for cremations and other ceremonies. They can also channel living people to give guidance or locate missing objects. Most of the female Balians are Ketakson.

But a visit to a balian is a serious matter, not a tourist sideshow The Pica/Paica Balian is a medium who may not be a formal student of magic. This kind of Balian receives physical objects which appear and disappear spontaneously and are used during healing sessions. “I’ve seen a kris suddenly materialize during meditation, standing on its point and rotating by itself,” Surya recalls. “The object may seem ordinary and may not be beautiful. These ritual objects appear and disappear of their own accord, and may manifest for up to five years.”

A Balian is committed to service, and may never turn anyone away. Tourists who casually enter the Balian’s compound expecting to be seen often delay the healer from working with the genuinely ill Balinese who have come to see him or her. Because of this, foreign visitors (including resident expats) should make an appointment with the Balians who prefer this. Please dress appropriately with arms and legs covered, and don’t point your feet at the healer (or any other Indonesian). Women should not be menstruating. Always take an offering with the fee tucked into it; never hand money directly to the Balian. The fee is usually Rp 100,000 for a consultation, and Rp 200,000 for treatment. If the treatment is extensive the fee may be higher; ask the Balian. Your hotel can make the appointment and supply the offering, and you might also want to take a translator as many Balians do not speak English. What can you expect when you consult a Balian? Your experience will be very public, with all the other clients watching avidly. The healer may make magic, create fire, use mudrahs, draw patterns on your body, spit wads of chewed herbs on your skin, apply scented oils, poke you with sharp sticks and/or give you a deep tissue massage or manipulation that will be very painful indeed. You will probably howl; most people do. But you will probably feel better. Every village has at least four Balians. There are about 8,000 practicing in Bali, which has about four times as many Balians as doctors. They are at the forefront of community health, and Balinese will often visit the Balian before going to a conventional doctor for treatment. The relationship between the two disciplines is interesting. The head of the Balian Association is a medical doctor whose father and grandfather were Balians, and the Hindu University in Denpasar has a faculty of traditional healing. Many Balians will refer a client to a doctor, hospital or pharmacy and doctors may discreetly suggest a visit to a Balian if mainstream medical treatment is not effective. Pak Made Surya, an authority on Balians, has been studying the subject in depth for 15 years. He is the only expert I’m aware of who offers healing arts study tours to those interested in the culture of traditional Balinese medicine and magic, and the opportunity to visit carefully selected, authentic Balians during one, two and six-day study tours. He has translated and worked with scholars and educational film and video crews including National Geographic. Besides leading Healing Arts study tours for 23 years, he has served as senior research assistant for several scholarly books relating to the Balinese view of the After Death and sits on the advisory board for Sacred Sites International. He is collaborating on a book provisionally titled A Spiritual Kitchen, an Ancient Balinese Healing System.

The Balian Usada is a person who either has the intention to become a Balian or may receive divine knowledge during a severe illness. These people decide to further their knowledge by studying the lontars (sacred texts) and with recognized healers. The lontars, thousands of ancient texts in Kawi script, contain information on ethics, anatomy, traditional herbs, meditation, yoga, tantra and other subjects. The Balians also study both white and black magic, which are very similar except for the intention of the practitioner. The fourth kind of Balian combines all of the above. Many may appear crazy or psychotic, or hear voices, while the wisdom in entering them. “The Healing Arts Study Tours are learning journeys which offer the visitor an in-depth excursion into the culture of Bali through the eyes of the Balinese, for those who wish to observe, appreciate, and experience traditional healing methods,” Surya explains. “Among other subjects, we explore the history of traditional medicine (Usada), the different systems and practices of the Balians and the mystical basis of the Bali Hindu belief system. The essence of Balinese medicine is the understanding of the magic of the Left versus the Right. We look at different healing modalities, love potions, black magic and their relationship to illness.” Quite a number of Balians will not see foreigners at all, because they feel it’s too difficult to communicate the subtlety and nuance of their work across the language and cultural barriers, even with a translator.

Tourists who casually enter the Balian’s compound expecting to be seen often delay the healer from working with the genuinely ill Balinese who have come to see him or her. For those who are neither students of Balinese culture nor ill but would like to experience a balian, the following will accept visits from foreigners without an appointment.

MONEY MATTERS by Colin Bloodworth

TIME TO INVEST ‘OUTSIDE THE BOX’? The past few weeks have seen a further deterioration in world financial markets with the Dow Jones index dipping below the psychological 10,000 mark and little news to indicate that better times are just around the corner. In the US the latest home sales figures are among the worst on record, the national debt is continuing to rise and local authorities are running out of cash and laying off hundreds more workers. In Europe, Ireland is having to prop up its banks yet again while several of the Mediterranean countries continue to struggle with their debts and high unemployment. Further East, Japan’s latest stimulus package has failed to stem deflation and the Yen continues to rise to the consternation of exporters. Aren’t you glad you live in Bali?! Maybe so, but if you are an expat and you depend on your savings and investments to ensure your future financial security these must be worrying times. If you have been faithfully investing in the major stock markets you are almost certainly worse off than you were ten years ago. Money in the bank is now earning interest (if any) well below the rate of inflation. If you bought a property in most western countries during the boom years you are probably sitting on a significant loss. There have been some bright spots such as emerging markets, but unless you were wellinvested in these, as well as some of the ‘outside-the-box assets’ below, the chances are you have been getting nowhere fast. But where do we go from here? The immediate outlook for traditional assets such as cash, bonds and equities is not good. While the ‘buy and hold’ theory should still work for the long term we need to be more imaginative and pro-active with our savings in the shorter and medium term. This means looking for opportunities ‘outside the box’. It does not mean abandoning traditional investments. Cash remains a critical element to provide liquidity in all circumstances. Equities and bonds should still form the core of a balanced portfolio and everyone should aspire to owning their own home. But a portion, the amount depending on personal circumstances, should be allocated to other asset classes that offer better prospects of growth in the present climate. So what are these assets? Oil and energy These should probably now be considered as belonging ‘inside the box’. Indeed, since they can be freely accessed via stocks and mutual funds they should fall strictly under equities. But they are a very important sector and need special attention since the world needs oil and other energy resources to function. As the global population continues to grow at an alarming rate demand also continues to grow for energy resources that are rapidly depleting. The world is going to have to turn progressively towards alternative and sustainable forms of energy. Demand for both conventional and alternative forms of energy is currently sluggish but as soon as demand picks up again the pressure on both forms of energy will increase. These are areas worth investing in for the medium and longer term, even if prices are volatile in the shorter term. Gold and precious metals One thing is for sure. These assets are not in unlimited supply. Gold has had a rollercoaster ride over the years. Sometimes it surges as in recent years, other times it lies low, as it did from around 1980 for almost a quarter of a century. But it will always have a value and is a good hedge against a falling dollar and political or economic turmoil. Silver also to a lesser degree. Platinum has a life of its own as it is needed in the oil, auto and computer industries. A balanced portfolio should certainly have a portion allocated to these assets. No need to go out and buy the physical product; you can access them through bullion or mining funds. Other natural resources These include other metals that are needed by industry such as iron ore, copper, zinc to name but a few. Then we have that priceless commodity, water. We take it for granted but much of the world’s population has no access

to clean water and maintaining a constant supply in even advanced countries will become a growing challenge. Then we come to agriculture. In recent weeks we have seen massive forest fires in Russia, unprecedented floods in Pakistan and a mixture of droughts and floods in other countries. These events have already forced up the price of wheat. A growing world population and a shrinking food supply due to climate change will inevitably lead to serious shortages and higher prices. Again, through mutual funds you can invest in metals, water and agriculture, assets that will always be in demand and can only rise in value over time.

Forestry While many resources are finite, one resource is renewable and sustainable, namely trees. With growing demand in line with rising populations an investment in forestry has got to pay dividends for those who have patience. Here in South-East Asia we have some interesting investment opportunities. Products range from bamboo to jatropha, a fruit that converts to biofuel and has even been successfully tested in a jumbo jet, and a product called agarwood, a highly-prized aromatic resin. Investment in forestry products entails tucking your money away from between three to fifteen years. That might seem a long time but the returns could outperform your conventional pension scheme. The companies offering the investments project returns in excess of 15% per annum. Litigation Funding This is not a new asset class. It has been around for over 30 years, mainly in the US and Australia. The difference now is that it is growing in countries such as the UK, where it accounts for only 5% of total litigation costs. But the big change is that it is moving from the domain of institutional investors such as pension funds and hedge funds to retail investors like you and me. Why is this? Because traditional sources cannot currently meet the demand. Many cases are never pursued because most people cannot afford to take on the big companies; neither can law firms afford to fund the cases. This is where litigation funding comes in. The funding company puts up the money if their analysis indicates at least an 80% chance of winning a case. Usually, when the defending party realises that unlimited funds are available to fight the case they are happy to settle out of court. The plaintiff is quite content to take as little as half the awarded damages because he has taken on no risk at all. The other half is divided between the lawyers, other experts, the litigation funding company and the investors. For added security, insurance is taken out to cover the risk of losing a case. The returns currently being offered range from 10% to 20%pa with a potential for 100% or more, depending on the selected level of insurance protection.

Always keep in mind risk vs. return So there you have it; you can definitely make a lot more money by taking a more adventurous attitude to investing. But you must still keep your feet on the ground and maintain ample cash and some conventional investments. However, if you can afford to accept a degree of risk and step ‘outside the box’ there’s a whole new world of opportunities! Just step with care, do your homework and get independent advice before making any commitment.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

Bali Encounter Published as mini-guides for cities and regions, Lonely Planet’s Encounter series claim to cover twice the territory in half the time. More to the point, though these little books are 15 times smaller than LP’s full fledged guides they qualify to serve as legitimate and competent guidebooks. Launched in 2007, the pocketsized full color guide series came out with eight of the world’s hottest cities researched and written by city-savvy authors and hometown residents who share authentic insights and recommendations to the destination of their particular expertise. Bali Encounter was published in 2009. The information was compiled by the same experienced Bali writer, Ryan Ver Berkmoes, who wrote LP’s Bali & Lombok regional guide. In this smaller guide his tips and advice are presented in a more succinct form and address a more mainstream audience. Though the publisher claims that the Encounter series was created for visitors on a two- to five-day trip, the compact pocket guide is actually quite adequate to serve as your only guide to Bali even if you’re staying for a month or more. After a month, you probably won’t need it as your knowledge of the island will be sufficient to make your own discoveries. The size of a guidebook doesn’t matter as much anymore as the time that is available for you to see even half of the attractions recommended in Encounter Bali. The 13-page “Highlights” at the start of the book – Bali’s culture, beaches, shopping streets, rice fields, walking, surfing, eating, diving and snorkeling – actually sum up very well what is ultimately attractive and do-able on the whole island. To give you a jump start, the “Snapshots” section in the back gives the author’s best lists in such categories as budget accommodations, Balinese restaurants, beach bars and shopping streets. A unique feature of the book are brief interviews with local residents – the head of the Indonesian surfing championships, a hotel marketing director, a restaurant owner, a rice farmer - who tell of their personal experiences and reveal secrets of their localities. Throughout the guide color-shaded boxes contain additional historical/cultural commentary. A full-color map in the front makes for easy navigation, but the book’s 10 regional and town maps are not very detailed, indicating only those places highlighted in the text. Though the coverage is less thorough than the author’s 396-page Bali & Lombok guide, this pared-down small format version is ideal for quick and spontaneous reference and fits perfectly into a back pocket, purse or backpack. Bali Encounter Guide by Ryan Ver Berkmoes, 1st Edition, Lonely Planet Publications 2009, ISBN 9781741791778, 160 pages, full color photos, 11 maps, dimensions 4.5 cm X 6 cm, Rp148,000.

Lonely Planet’s Best Ever Travel Tips Though tiny in size, this booklet packs a powerful punch and compliments perfectly Bali Encounter with its hundreds of insider tips that the travel industry would rather you didn’t know. Best Ever Travel Tips features contributions from a wide range of travel writers, travel editors, travel lecturers,

founders of travel websites, industry experts, travel consultants and health practitioners. The book’s useful contents include: 1. Secrets of traveling light: pack exactly what you need and absolutely nothing you don’t, a personalized packing list, the bundle-wrapping technique, layering clothing, second fold up bags, power strips 2. The wonders of such new travel technology as universal sink stoppers, gaffer tape, melatonin, security door wedges, waterproof pouches, belts with zippers, noise insulating headphones, handle-bar mounted map holders, etc. 3. Specialized websites: currency cheat sheets, prepaid cash credit cards, comparing prices, travel stores, on line clinics, facts and figures on air crashes, hotel reviews, seat availability and seat maps, trip planners, business travel bloggers, locating travel partners, driving directions, plotting the distance between cities 4. Favorites: carry your doctor’s phone number, trust a woman’s gut instinct, use hotel staff as guides, when changing money there’s no such thing as “commission free,” air ticket buying strategies, why it‘s not always a good idea to buy the cheapest ticket, startlingly cheap budget buses, how to get an early hotel check-in 5. Health & Safety: making your trip as eco-friendly as possible, staying safe and healthy while on the road, killing mosquitoes with a pillow

Question: I am a 44-year old Western man who’s never been married. Neither do I have children. I recently moved to Bali for a job opportunity, and an Indonesian co-worker (female) and I began to hit it off well. She told me immediately that she has been in a relationship and living with her boyfriend for 9 years. The two of them have been engaged for about 3 years. After a couple of months of working and talking with her, I began to suspect that their relationship was not as good as she thought it should be. So while I hadn’t been in a relationship in over 18 months, I wanted to pursue her. At work one day, after everyone else had left, I whispered to her that I didn’t have to be home anytime soon, and she said she didn’t either and kissed me. Long story short, I was right that she was unhappy in her relationship. She told me that her fiancé had moved out over a year ago, but that they were still together. Every day, he comes over and spends time with her, and almost everyday she asks him, “When are you coming home?” He always answers, “Soon, and I love you” -- for over a year now. She says she doesn’t want to lose the 8 years that were so great, but that she knows she can’t continue to live this way. I have filled a void in her life, but she can’t let go of her past in her current relationship. I care deeply for her. Can she really still be in love with her fiancé after the way he has been treating her? What advice can I give her? Last week we went out for dinner, and he found out about it and gave her the third degree. He harassed her even though she told him that we are just friends. She fought back, and he finally admitted that he has been living with another Indonesian woman. He said, “It’s not what you think” and claimed it had something to do with the fact that his son is living with the woman’s daughter. He said that he was going to move back home, and that he loved her. Where do I go from here? How can I help her even if we don’t end up together? I really just want her to be happy even if it’s not with me. She is so confused on what to do. Please help. Dr. ZZ: Oo-la-la! You certainly have managed to get yourself into the middle of a hornets’ nest. I wouldn’t advise doing anything until the hornets quiet down. The fuss and the buzzing seem to be coming at you from all directions. First of all, you’re treading in cross-cultural waters; that in itself signals the need for caution. Secondly, you cannot control another person’s feelings. Obviously, the fiancé in this story has been lying to your friend for over a year. If there had been a good reason for his moving out in the first place, he could have told her about it upfront, not after a year of living with another woman.

It is up to your friend to figure out that this is not the man she loves. Your best bet is to be there for her, to listen, to comfort, to understand and to nudge her gently. If you can continue spending time with her without it’s jeopardizing her safety, then doing fun things and continuing to earn her trust may help give her the confidence she needs to kick her double-dealing boyfriend to the curb. But that has to be HER decision – not something you coax her to do. If the decision to break with him comes from you rather than from her heart, she’s apt to blame you for any mixed feelings she may end up with after all is said and done. Question: My girlfriend and I had unprotected sex a couple of times, and now she hasn’t really had a period. She had a little blood come out but not enough to use a tampon. We’re scared and don’t know what to do. Could she possibly be pregnant even though she had a very scant period? Dr. ZZ: In a word, yes -- I’m afraid so. Human biology doesn’t always follow the textbooks, and stranger things have happened. At this point, your best approach is to have your girlfriend take a pregnancy test. That way you’ll know for sure, one way or the other. Moreover, regardless of the outcome, unless the two of you realistically want to create a pregnancy, you would do well to start practicing a reliable form of birth control. If either of you don’t find hormone or barrier methods appealing, then your girlfriend may at least want to begin to practicing the Fertility Awareness Method (FAM).

FAM is a collection of body-evaluations through which a woman can learn to discern when ovulation is coming by observing her own body and charting certain physical changes. You can then use this information to avoid or encourage pregnancy. To be effective as a birth control method, FAM requires that you abstain from intercourse or use a barrier method of birth control during the fertile time, which is approximately 9 days each and every month. But 9 days of abstaining or using barrier protection is far better than none. My hope is that the two of you will get a chance to study FAM and put it into play before you are saddled with the responsibilities of an unplanned pregnancy. Best of luck with the pregnancy test! Let this be a wake-up call if it’s negative. Copyright © 2010 Say What? You can read all past articles of Say What at www.BaliAdvertiser.biz

Sleep If you are a teenager in Bali it’s likely you are having less sleep than your parents did at your age. The current generation of kids are getting an average of less than seven hours sleep each night. Kids used to average eight hours, so a whole night’s sleep per week has disappeared. Does this matter? Does it have any effect on your brain and your school learning? Well, it almost certainly does, and the news is not good, but to understand why, first you need to know a little about why we sleep. Neuroscientists have discovered that during sleep the day’s learning is shifted from short term memory areas to more efficient storage systems in the brain. You have nightly cycles of Rapid Eye Movement (REM) and non REM sleep lasting about 90 minutes all through the night. The REM periods are particularly important because this is when your brain cells are actually making new connections with other brain cells. The connections, called synapses’ become the memory ‘circuits’ of your brain. The more you have the greater your memory and learning ability is. The teen years are extraordinary because your brains are under reconstruction – you are going through a metamorphic change between child and adult every bit as amazing as the changes caterpillars make to become butterflies! The frontal lobes particularly, (the centres of reasoning and self control), get rewired in these years and for the moment you are controlled by other parts of the brain – especially the limbic system. Sleep scientists are beginning to discover what effect a lost hour of sleep every night has on teenagers’ brains. They found that sleep problems cause permanent changes in brain structure and that some classic teenage behaviour (moodiness, depression, binge eating) may be sleep loss related. A lot of work is being done on sleep. In a study of 7000 students, teens who received A averages had fifteen minutes more sleep than the B averages and they had eleven minutes more than the C averages who had ten minutes more than the Ds. Every fifteen minutes of sleep counts. Sleep loss impairs your brain by making it less ‘plastic’ and less able to form synaptic connections to create memories. Emotional contexts of memories affect where it gets processed. In the limbic system, the amygdala handles negative stimuli, the hippocampus handles positive. The hippocampus suffers more than the amygdala from sleep loss. The result is the sleep deprived can fail to recall pleasant memories, but have no trouble remembering the gloomy. This may be a physical link to teenage depression. Kids who miss an hour sleep per night may be operating their brains at a cognitive level of two years below where they should be. Grade 10s may operate as grade 8s. A teacher with knowledge of how sleep affects students can often point out those in the class who are sleep deprived. If you are tired your prefrontal cortex cannot metabolise glucose well enough. Your ‘executive functioning’ suffers,

C/E/G-8 Sept. 10

you have lower impulse control and you get distracted more easily. It’s likely that this is when you’ll be getting into trouble at school or with your parents. Sleep loss may also be linked to the increasing level of childhood obesity. On average, children who sleep less are fatter than those who get their full 10 hours of sleep. In fact kids who get less than eight hours sleep per night are 300% more likely to be obese than others. The University of Texas says your chances of becoming obese rise 80% with each hour of lost sleep. This may be because sleep loss increases the level of the hormone ghrelin which signals hunger, and lowers leptin, which decreases appetite. It also raises cortisol, the famous stress hormone, which also has a role in making body fat. What you can do about your sleep: Determine if your sleep habits are affecting your brain and your ability to learn by: • Keeping a sleep diary – count the numbers of hours of undisturbed sleep you have each night. What is the average? As a teenager you need 8-10 hours per night. • Identifying your ‘sleep thieves’ – what wakes you up? Dogs, mobile phones, family? What can you do about them? • Avoiding computers and TV for the hour before you sleep. The blue light they produce actually affects your sleep patterns. Try to sleep in dark rooms. • Seeking help if you have a big problem. These can most likely be fixed and your life can change as a result. When I do Brain Day workshops with school students I always do a brief survey. I ask two questions. The first question – Who went to sleep later than 11 pm last night? – has been finding around 40% of Middle and High School Students are night owls. The second question - Who did not have breakfast this morning? – is also enlightening as breakfast is a major player in preparing your brain for learning. Breakfast is the subject of my next article in this series. References and further links can be found on my website:

Delicious International Dishes (Indonesian Language Version available at www.baliadvertiser.biz) Crepes are a versatile wrap for any meal whether it is blintzes for breakfast, a wrap for lunch, or my favorite crepe cake for dinner. This is the sweet version and delicious wrapped around a favorite fruit preserve and topped with a dollop of plain yogurt for breakfast. Put ice cream or fruit inside and sauce with chocolate for dessert. The crepes can be made a day ahead of serving and stored in the fridge, or wrapped tightly in foil and frozen for later use. We will use this recipe in the next issue of the BA for a breakfast treat. Basic Sweetened Crepes About 10 crepes Ingredients : - 3 large or 4 small eggs - 1 cup low fat milk (you can also use regular milk) - 1/2 cup water - 1/2 tsp. salt - 1 cup white flour - 1 Tbl. butter, melted and cooled - 1 Tbl. sugar - 2 Tbl. fresh orange juice

When you are ready to cook the crepes, heat a frying pan the same size as the crepe you want to make. I use a 24 cm diameter pan. Add a pat of butter and rotate the pan so the butter covers the bottom. Put 1/4 cup of the batter into the pan and immediately rotate the pan again so the batter covers the bottom in a thin even layer with no holes. Cook until set and flip the crepe over and cook for one more minute on this other side. If you develop a hole in the crepe use a tiny bit of batter to fill it in and cook until set. Lay the crepe flat on a plate off to the side and cook another crepe in the same manner until all the crepes are cooked. You can wrap the cooled stack in foil or plastic wrap and keep over night in the fridge or freeze for a couple of weeks.

- butter for frying Directions : Put the eggs, milk, water and salt into a blender. Blend until smooth. Add the flour, cooled melted butter, palm sugar, and the orange juice. Blend until smooth. Now set this aside for two hours.

Restaurant Review

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

Vietnamese on the Bukit Nuoc Cham was the original name of this small simple restaurant on the main road between Ungasan and Uluwatu, but now it is called My Kitchen and some Malay and a few local Indonesian dishes have been added to the original Vietnamese menu. Nuoc Cham is central to Vietnamese cuisine, it is the name for many different dipping sauces that are served with entrees and some mains. The base is a fish sauce with lemon, sugar, water and a little vinegar. To this different ingredients are added depending on the accompanying dish; minced garlic, chopped peppers, shredded carrot, and even a little lemongrass. At My Kitchen the Javanese connection kicks in with a touch of chilli as well, which for me gives it that extra little kick! Unfortunately the menu at My Kitchen utilizes only the Indonesian and English translations and rarely mentions Vietnamese names for the dishes most of which are very close to the original though usually simple versions thereof. The prices are at local warung level. My Kitchen is small, clean and fresh, just like the food they serve. Start with Vietnamese Spring Rolls [Cha Gio], these are the cooked variety, 4 ‘small finger’ size rolls and that pungent dipping sauce, just a mouthful each but only Rp.12,000. Minced chicken, white radish and shredded vegetables wrapped in rice paper and deep fried to a crisp. Most of the serves at My Kitchen are individual portions, and the prices reflect that, so multiple ordering is called for. Fresh Vietnamese Spring Rolls, or Rice Paper Rolls as they are often called, are on many Bali menus [Goi Cuon]. They are normally offered with a traditional Nuoc Cham but not here at My Kitchen where they are prepared the Malaysian way with an unusual mix of hoisin and peanut sauce already combined with the ingredients [small juicy prawns in shredded lettuce with spring onions] in the soft rice paper wrapping. There is one large cross-sliced roll per serve, just enough for one person [here labeled Lumpia Salad Roll].

side and the crepe is served soft here rather than crisp as is normal, it is a dish to be enjoyed. Open it up and pour the accompanying nuoc cham all over it. It is difficult to stop yourself from ordering a 2nd one!

Restaurant

: My Kitchen

Salads can be simple, the Papaya Salad is made from young papaya combined with shredded carrot, tomato, coriander and mint, which almost gives it a Vietnamese-Thai taste, but I am not complaining. But the great salad dish is simply called Vietnamese Vermicelli Salad, A large bowl is presented full of lettuce, cold vermicelli noodles, sliced cucumber sticks, carrot, bean sprouts, crushed peanuts and beef strips that have been grilled in lemongrass. Accompanying is a smaller bowl of nuoc cham sauce. Pour it all in and mix, the wonderful after taste will stay with you for hours. Once again whilst the beef is not overly tender the overall taste is great, fresh and clean.

QUICK REVIEW

There is nothing flash about this place, but is cheap, friendly and clean with dishes well prepared and simply presented. Nice fresh flavours with that lingering aftertaste if, like me, you pour the nuoc cham over everything!

Update Cafe Havana is Bali and Ubud’s lone Cuban restaurant. Downstairs is the home of Salsa, whether it be performed by the professional dancers, the eager boys and girls who work there or the tentative customers struggling to learn Others just watch, clap or laugh at some of the attempts! Upstairs is another world, recapturing the decadence of the Havana that existed in the 1930’s, silk curtains hanging between the tables under hanging chandeliers, all romance and intrigue. The food, like the music, is pure Cuban. Start the day with a Breakfast Burrito [scrambled eggs, black beans and a spicy chopped chorizo, on the side a guacamole and jalapeno cheese sauce. Or try their Cuban Ham & Eggs [pictured] the fried egg served in a crisp tortilla, sliced ham on the side. Start your Cuban experience with a trio of Empanadas, crescent shaped pastries stuffed with spicy beef, pumpkin and black beans and jalapeno cheese or a plate of Quesadillas stuffed with prosciutto and rosemary flavoured cheese or corn, cheese and guacamole. For mains try the guava-glazed Baby Back Ribs, covered with guava chutney and served with cassava potato cakes, banana chips and a mojo salsa. Finish with a refreshing Herba de Buena, an ice cream of fresh mint with chocolate rum truffles.

Sanur Harum at the Paradise Plaza Hotel, Sanur, offers many Cantonese specials. Now, just for the month of September, they offer a dish rarely seen in Bali. With the rather uninspiring name, in English, Oven Baked Chinese Chicken, it is a very complex dish that must be ordered one day in advance due to its preparation time. The bird is first cleaned, seasoned and left overnight in a marinade. The chicken is subsequently stuffed with a mixture of rice and shredded vegetables, and braised over soy. Now it is deep fried for a few minutes until the skin becomes a crisp brown. The bird is completely wrapped first in lotus leaves and then in aluminium foil, before being encased in clay. Baked in the oven at a very high temperature then served straight to the table whereupon the clay outer is cracked open with a hammer, letting the locked-in fragrances escape. The result is crisp skin and soft flesh, a result that only Chinese cuisines seem able to attain. The Shore was created at Bali’s Nikko Resort, Nusa Dua, in an attempt to attract quality diners. It is an impressive two tiered open building perched on the cliff above the resort beach. Whilst it opened in 2008 not much had been heard about it. Things may now change as the well–travelled Australian, Chris Patzold, has become the resident Chef. Chris was the original chef when Ku de Ta opened, later moving to his own boutique restaurant Axiom, a unique dining experience that quickly gained many regular patrons. He subsequently returned to the front line at Blossom at Sentosa a few years ago. His style is of refined simplicity that relies on using the very best quality ingredients and letting you taste them in their natural state without being over-powered with herbs and spices. The Shore now quickly goes to the head of that ‘to visit’ list!

Bebek Bengil is not only Bali’s largest restaurant but one of the most unique. This Ubud institution has been going through a major renovation for the past few months and has now unveiled its new look. An impressive modern lounge area greets the incoming guest, behind which is the new vast open kitchen. The Asian tourists are already queuing to take pictures of their Crispy Duck in process.

Vienna Café is hidden in the first part of Jln. Drupadi, Seminyak, just off Jln. Laksmana. A small entrance to what was a house opens out into a garden terrace, all rather rustic! The produce is old-style traditional Austrian. They even bake the Original Sacher Torte [that famous Austrian chocolate cake] Rye and other Breads. You can have an Austrian breakfast, Eierspeis [eggs with diced onions, peppers and ham, scrambled in pumpkin seed oil], Cheese Spatzle, Butter Nockerl, and Goulash with bread dumpling. For a snack in the garden there is Farmers Toast, a slice of toasted rye bread topped with ham, cheese and tomato, and a fried egg on top of that! Or you can have just a simple salad; beetroot, apple and greens. Finish with a real Austrian dessert, Kaiserschmarren [as originally created for the Emperor Franz Josef], sugared pancakes with apple puree. All of this is found in a secret Bali garden.

Pizza Hut, one of the world’s largest restaurant franchise operations, is about to open in Sanur. On The ByPass Ngurah Rai, on the site of one of Sanur’s many failed supermarkets, it joins the two biggest Fast Food operations in the world [Macca’s and KFC] in a 1km stretch of that highway. It remains to be seen if this outlet will also be a 24 hour one to join the nearby fast food places. Good reason for it to be as a pizza is the food of choice for millions of late night drinkers all around the world! They even, sometimes, order more drinks with their pizza!

Alleycats was named after the previous inhabitants of that small dead-end gang just off Poppies Lane II, not far from Jln.Legian. The garden restaurant, like its namesakes, is a true survivor. In that area that automatically means that you are giving many people exactly what they want. Alleycats offers an International menu priced for the numerous budget travelers who frequent this area, without ever forgetting their true English heritage! They have real sandwiches [actually served between slices of quality bread] and the European version of stuffed split baguettes. Even a Chip Butty [for the English only]; a buttered baguette stuffed with hot chips [French fries for the uninitiated] and a Burger Menu that includes a real Aussie Burger [with bacon, cheese, egg, fried onion and that Aussie essential; sliced beetroot]. For the hungry hoards a hearty English Beef Stew or a real Gammon Steak topped with fried eggs or a ring of pineapple. However it is their breakfasts that have become Alleycats main claim to fame and it is much easier to park in the area at that time of the morning. An English Breakfast to cure any lingering nostalgia for home; Fried Egg with a large sausage, smoked back bacon, mushrooms, fried tomato and baked beans [beanz meanz Heinz, mum!], a buttered English muffin and a mug of tea or coffee…all for Rp.45,000, five bucks in any language!

Effective Weed Control and Disposal

Organic weed control methods are usually simple, cheap and avoid the toxic side effects of herbicides. Hand weeding is one of the basic ways of controlling weeds organically in your garden. Concentrate on gardening one small area you can definitely manage, and gradually enlarge it. Organic weed control means avoiding nasty chemical herbicides, so leave the rest wild until you’re ready. Here are a number of techniques that can be used in conjunction with each other in order to minimize the amount of weed growth in your garden. Cultivated areas need weeding on an ongoing basis. There are weed seeds carried around by wind, animals and on the shoes and clothing of people. Soil borne seeds are also lying dormant and waiting for the right conditions to sprout. Simply pulling or killing weeds will not eradicate the weed problem. More seeds will sprout almost as soon as the soil is exposed to moisture and light. Sheet mulching is a way in which to put down an organic weed barrier. This barrier prevents the germination and eventual emergence of weeds through your mulch, by inhibiting light. Underneath this weed barrier grasses and weeds die and quickly become food for earthworms, and as the mulch breaks down it will provide nutrient back into the soil.

For topical weed control without chemicals, try vinegar. It’s the acetic acid in vinegar that gives it its herbicidal qualities. Vinegar used for culinary purposes is relatively low (5%) in acetic acid, so repeated applications will be necessary if you’ll be applying it on mature weeds. When using vinegar as herbicide apply it directly onto the weeds, since vinegar is non selective and will harm plants that are inadvertently exposed to it. Vinegar also eats concrete so be careful if you’re using it on weeds growing within paved areas, pouring boiling water on weeds is a much better option in these circumstances. Another reason for not using artificial weed killers is that this prevents you composting any of the dead weeds. Doing so would recycle the toxins which may harm plants that are supplied with your compost. To dispose of your weeds you can either throw them out in the rubbish or you can add them to your compost, but in no circumstances should you throw them back on to any part of the garden as they would easily grow and re-establish in your garden. You must be diligent in making sure that every tiny scrap of weed (from the root to the tip) is disposed of, and not dropped back on the garden. If you don’t have time to remove weeds before they flower, make sure that you cut the flowers and dispose immediately, because if you let them go to seed in your garden, you will be constantly fighting an uphill battle. You need to prevent seed distribution so don’t let the seeds escape.

If you have large areas of weeds you can simply smother the area with sheet mulch. Here’s how you do it. First water the soil the day before so that the soil is moist, then lay newspaper six sheets thick to cover all the soil and weeds. Left: sheet mulch using cardboard. Right: Sheet mulch with cardboard Place the newspaper sheets Also it is important that you and newspaper topped with layers of compost and straw. right up to the edge of plants don’t compost weeds directly. making sure there is overlapping of paper so the weeds can’t In commercial composting operations weed seeds are killed get to the light. Six sheets of newspaper is enough to trap the by maintaining high temperatures above 60°C. Such weeds, and allow air into the soil without harming garden temperatures are usually only achieved with very large plants. Lay a 15 cm thick layer of mulch over the paper. carefully managed piles that are not realistic for the average Compost, dead leaves or any type of organic mulch can be home gardener. There are two main ways in which weeds used. Avoid digging the bed for at least 3 to 6 months so that should be prepared before you add them to your compost. no weed bulbs or seeds get a chance to re-grow. Solarisation is the easiest method to destroy the viability of weeds to reproduce. Put bulbs, seeds and roots into a sealed After a few months the weeds will have starved to death and black plastic bag and leave it to bake in the hottest sunniest the bed will be full of organic matter ready to plant out with part of your yard for a week or two. The contents will be garden plants. After 6 months or when the sheet mulch has destroyed, and then the residue can be composted. Drowning become thin simply reapply. I know some gardeners who don’t is another alternative, put the weeds inside a bucket, fill it up even bother using mulch on top of the sheet as they simply with water and put a lid on top. A month later there is a nutrient apply thick sheets of overlapping newspaper or cardboard. rich soup to feed the garden, and the weed residue can then Because these materials are porous they allow air and water go into the compost. into the soil but restrict sunlight, thus preventing weed germination. You can cover large areas very quickly. For a If you really don’t have time to tackle a large patch of weed small vegetable garden you could sheet mulch in a matter of that doesn’t affect cultivated areas, leave it and don’t worry, minutes, and then you will have prevented weed growth for just make sure that you cut weeds down for composting before a number of months, the technique can also be used to convert the seeds disperse. Weed control chemicals are intended for grassy areas to garden beds. It is so simple but so effective, small hard to deal with areas. Don’t apply deadly weed killer lay down sheets of newspaper and top with mulch, it should to a large area of garden as sterile weed killed land stagnates take a matter of minutes, not hours, but it will save you so and accumulates undesirable chemicals and will ruin the soil much time and effort. over time. Once you get it under control weed problems will soon fade away with sheet mulch, gardening tools and Some landscapers like to use permanent barrier membranes persistence, with no need for harsh chemicals and protective such as plastic, instead of newspaper sheeting. Buried plastic barrier membranes kill off soil life, as they prevent nutrients, face masks. moisture and air from entering the soil which will destroy microbial activity, necessary for the health of the soil. Over the long term the soil becomes dry and suffocated as it is effectively starved. The aim is to starve the weeds, not the soil. Under no circumstances would I advise plastic sheeting as a weed control, having previously seen the effects and having worked to rehabilitate soils that have been damaged by this method of weed control. With newspaper sheets we can starve the weeds and enrich the soil at the same time!

DVD Salt Australian director Phillip Noyce, now resident in America, has to his credit such terrific movies as ‘Dead Calm’ (1989), ‘Patriot Games’ (1992) and ‘Clear and Present Danger’ (1994). Noyce’s latest movie, ‘Salt’, is another fantastic political thriller. A long hidden Russian ‘mole’ is activated, whose mission is to assassinate the President of the United States, and thus set off a nuclear war. The plot is totally engrossing, and the action throughout the movie is top-notch. Angelina Jolie stars, as a much hassled CIA Agent, and it is the kind of thing she does extremely well. Angelina has many surprising ‘looks’ in the movie, and whether blonde or brunette, she is just tremendous. At the end of the movie it is pretty clear that ‘Salt 2’ will soon be on its way. Centurion This Roman Epic, directed by Neil Marshall, is set in England in the year 117 AD. A battalion of Roman soldiers are ordered to suppress the Picts, but, as they proceed into Scotland, the Picts retreat further and further into the highlands, letting the cold, snow and sleet do its work. Exhausted, only a few soldiers survive a Pict ambush, and, as they make their way back to safety, the Picts follow in ruthless pursuit. The movie is a telling study into the psychology of warfare, and it contains superb locations and photography, plus exceptional performances from a new batch of emerging British stars. Burning Bright An evil step-father, lumbered with a step-daughter and an autistic step-son, wants to get his hands on their dead mother’s property, and the children’s life-insurances, so that he can turn their ranch into a Safari Park. Using the excuse of an approaching hurricane, he boarders up the house, and then places in the house a starving tiger. After scurrying off to a local bar, he waits for the tiger to do its thing. Director Carlos Brooks comes up with many inventive ways for the step-daughter and step-son to fend off the tiger’s attacks. Basically, the movie is a B Grade ‘thriller-filler’, but it will have you glued to the edge of your seat, sweating from suspense and tension. Marmaduke The world’s most lovable Great Dane leaps from comic strip fame to the big screen, in this engaging movie. When Marmaduke’s family moves to a new home in Orange County, Marmaduke has to learn how to adapt to his new laid-back Californian lifestyle. Not very successfully. But, with the help of some new canine friends, he quickly adjusts. Tom Dey makes an amusing computer-manipulated comedy, which children and dog lovers of all ages are going to adore. Owen Wilson, with many other surprising actors, provide all the animal voices. Whatever you do, don’t miss the closing production number, when all the doggies launch into a frisky routine of break dancing! The Karate Kid The original movie was made in 1984, but, this is a re-make that really works. The setting has been transferred to China, which probably makes more sense Karate wise, and some of the material has been revised to be more applicable to contemporary youths. However, the main plot line, which concerns a teenage boy who is beset by bullies until an unlikely mentor, the handyman in his apartment house, teaches him all about self-confidence and karate, is still there. Mercifully, much less sentimental than the original schmaltz! It goes without saying that the locations in which the teenager does some of his training are absolutely stunning and breathtaking. Jackie Chan’s glory days as a Kung Fu Fighter are well and truly behind him, but, Jackie has been able to re-invent himself as an excellent comedic character actor, and in this film, as the wise old handyman, Jackie is extremely good. The City of Your Final Destination A Merchant Ivory Production always signifies a serious film

Diary by Mr. Robet

adaptation of a popular novel, set in an exotic locale, and featuring top-line production values, and actors. That’s pretty much the case with their latest movie. Based on a best-seller by Peter Cameron, a biographer wants to do a book on a famous Latin American writer, and he travels to some god forsaken place in South America to get permission from the writer’s wife, mistress, and brother. All executors of the deceased writer’s estate. Director James Ivory, and actors Anthony Hopkins, Laura Linney, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Omar Metwally, and Hiroyuki Sanada, put us through a hell of a lot of blah, blah, blah, before they finally get around to signing the necessary legal papers.

Cemetery Junction After his not too successful sojourn in the United States, British writer and director Ricky Gervais returns to England to work on material he knows best. His latest kitchen-sink drama is set in the 1970s, in a backwater British town. Three blue-collar lads want to flee this environment, but, family duties and a lack of commitment, continually stop them from doing that. The film tries to be a slice-of-life, and, I guess its okay, if you like that kind of thing. The Girl who Played with Fire As a follow-up to the highly successful ‘The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo’, this movie comes as a bitter disappointment. The movie has none of the originality of its predecessor. This time around the Dubious Journalist is investigating a case of human trafficking, while the Tattooed Girl delves into some of the mysteries of her past. None of which are satisfactorily resolved.

“Watery Futures” I hope my good friend Colin Bloodworth will forgive my straying onto his territory this week but I have a tip for you, forget gold or oil, don’t bother with derivatives or a really attractive looking stock in a company selling wellingtons to one legged tap dancers. What you need to consider are watery futures. Already in some parts of the world water is more valuable than gold and getting more so.

to have a look at just how much water we use and this will help us to ‘size’ our pump.

On the website at: www.mrfixitbali.com/waterusagecalculator. html you will find a water usage calculator that may help you.

In Bali the predicted water crisis is starting to bite and 12 of the island’s major rivers have dried up. PDAM, the water supply company, have released figures stating that the normal average water usage has reached 158 litres of clean water per person per day. This is a lot of water.

It can immediately be seen from the table that there are easy ways of saving water. Note there are some items that really do use a lot of water particularly watering the garden and topping up the swimming pool.

PDAM does not have enough capacity being able to deliver 1,100 litres per second while demand has reached 1,200 litres per second resulting in significant pressure drops during peak usage periods in the morning and afternoon.

Also note how much water a running toilet can use. If you are really serious about saving water you can always head for the riverbank and a couple of big rocks to wash your clothes.

PDAM have 5,000 people on their waiting list for water supply. The Balinese provincial government has recently announced that they will increase the charge for water drawn from wells and bore by 1,000%, yes you heard that right 1,000%.

When sizing a water pump we need to consider the maximum flow of water we will need at any one time. If there are 4 adults in your household you will probably be using around 600 litres per day.

The reason is simple, our groundwater tables are falling and salinity caused by the ingress of seawater is now said to be reaching 5 kilometres inland in some places. Soon our wells will be too polluted to use and drastic action is needed. the majority of hotels on the island are using groundwater from their own wells and bores.

If you don’t have a water storage tank (and surprisingly an increasing number of people don’t these days) then the pump will probably be pumping straight from the bore to your taps. The busiest time may well be in the morning. We might have as many as 4 people trying to shower at the same time - 32 litres per minute. We’ve got 2 taps watering the garden - 16 litres per minute. 2 toilets are refilling - 6 litres per minute. 1 hose is topping up the pool - 8 litres per minute. We’ll ask James to wash the car later. The maximum flow we need from our pump is 62 litres per minute. Now if you use a water tank you can use a much smaller well or bore pump which will be considerably cheaper to buy and will be a much lighter load your electricity circuits.

The UN estimates that by 2025 75% of the world’s population will not have access to safe water. The situation is rapidly deteriorating due, of course, to two reasons.

We appear to be breeding ourselves to oblivion don’t we? Secondly people are becoming more affluent and wasteful. Back in the 17th century British people used 2 to 3 bull’s scrotums of water a day (that’s the equivalent of 10 to 20 litres). These days they use about 155 litres per person per day. In Europe people use 200 to 300 litres per day while in developing countries the figure is 5 to 50 litres per person per day. Of course much of the increase in water usage is due to the ready access to water running from taps in our houses and is used for those ever so essential items in our modern lifestyle such as washing the car, topping up the pool and giving the pooch a ginseng and ass’s milk shampoo (doggy wellness is very important you know). Sadly we tend to waste much of the water we consume, straight down the plug ’ole and off to the sea bypassing that very essential water table. Last week we started looking at water pumps. There are 2 essential questions when deciding the size of pump you need, first the quantity of water you will need to pump and secondly the pressure of water you need. We will look at water pressure another time but perhaps this is a good time

If you have a 1,000 litre tank you will need to pump 600 litres over the course of the day and you can use a small pump for your well or bore and let it run for a long time. In many cases people who have a large house with several bathrooms think they need a single large pump to deliver the water from the tank to the taps and showers.

This has a distinct disadvantage that at times when only one shower is running the pump is too large, it switches on and off continuously and you can get problems of “pulsing” in the supply. I suggest that it is better to use several smaller pumps to deliver the water from the tank. Better still do what I do and have a tank up on a tank stand or your roof where gravity feeds the water. A nice constant pressure, no pump needed, cheaper to install and no electricity demand.

STARS WITH VIBHUTI HOROSCOPE SEPTEMBER 08 - SEPTEMBER 22, 2010

Beginning the Fortnight with the New Moon in Virgo at 16 degrees, we set in motion a round of healing and service work. In the southern hemisphere we move into the Spring Equinox and the beginning of our yearly cycle. Just after the movement of the Sun into Libra, marking the Equinox, we have the Full Moon at 0 degrees Aries. Remember the oppositional arm in the latest T-square is in Libra and Aries. Although both Jupiter and Uranus have returned to Pisces, the T-square remains activated. As the Sun and Moon both rekindle the memories, challenges and lessons of the past three months, we get to put in place what we have recently learned through our experiences. It is then a good time to get yourself into a routine and rhythm which supports your inner stability, clarity and connection to the Divine Principal. Virgo likes to be conscious of what it is doing to its’ body and mind, purging any impurities which may be clogging up the normal bodily processes and hindering growth and forward movement. Aries remember, is the radical warrior who is willing to take risks and daring. We will continue to be highly activated by the transforming qualities of Pluto as the Full Moon approaches, and as a continuing theme throughout this coming year. Pluto in Capricorn dismantling old structures in the material world, as well as within your own psyche. The quickest way to amplify this situation is through our honest and integral one on one relationship with others. Libra wanting fairness and justice for all. NEW MOON 15 Virgo 41 September 08, 2010 06:31 p.m.

ARIES: Mars your ruler remains in Libra for this fortnight and is set to enter Scorpio by the beginning of the next. Relationship being the theme of the moment, has you in close proximity to others at this time. Mars as the activator and original ruler of Pluto, you are set for some interesting times from the Full Moon on and with the Full Moon in your sign you are sure to be ready for a little solitude or at least solo adventures. The square to Pluto however, will keep the fires of passion kindled and act as a strong reminder of the responsibilities inherent in any relationship. TAURUS: Venus enters Scorpio and brings some sensual passion to your sexual encounters. This is an extra long stint in this intense and polar opposite sign, as she goes retrograde throughout October. Get yourself prepared for some deep inner transformation through relationship at this time. Any attempts at laziness or avoidance will be thwarted. As Mars continues to travel closely to Venus throughout this month you will be motivated to transform old patterns of behavior within your relationships, whether they be intimate, familial or friendships. The Sun remains in Virgo this fortnight supplementing your earthy qualities. GEMINI: Mercury comes out of retrograde on the 13th. You will notice the shift in mental energy available to you, at this time. Also the communication glitches will cease, as you come into alignment with your higher mind once more. Mercury in the sign of Virgo gives you some added mental stamina, discernment and discrimination abilities. Use these in service of your ability to adapt and transform situations in your life which no longer work to your benefit. This could be in the arena of work, business ideas and projects. With access to so much information it is easy to get derailed or side-tracked. Be discriminate. CANCER: This fortnight heralds the beginning of some new ventures in your life. Ventures and adventures. With the moon cycle marking a time of regeneration and healing for you, much energy will be made available for transformational work which was not quite completed during July and August. The ongoing balancing act between self and other, and work and home life, continues to propel you into making necessary adjustments. It could be time to erect some new boundaries or dismantle others, which are getting in the way of true relating. Any fears you may have around them, will be highlighted now. LEO: As Jupiter moves out of Aries, there are no Planets currently in fire signs. You will need to be the motivation in your own life at this time and possibly the life of others. Use your wonderful ability to inspire as the guiding light this fortnight. The movement of the Sun into Libra on the 23rd and the Full Moon in Aries will give you some much needed support. Harness the energy at this time to implement your projects, as the fire signs only begin to re-emerge in November. It really is a time for integration, relationship and communication, with the need for solitude and quiet times interspersed. VIRGO: The Virgo Birthdays continue this fortnight with the Moon’s cycle in your sign as well, culminating in the Full Moon in Aries. You are sure to get some surprises coming your way now, as Mercury goes direct and you get a glimmer of the rising Sun on the horizon. This really is a new beginning, the new dawning for many on the Planet now. Embrace the wholeness and splendor of who you are, and share those things; gifts which you excel at and are inherently yours to embody. Be kind to yourself and allow some space for introspection, to get your mind in order and to discriminate between the old the new, and what is worth holding onto.

LIBRA: Venus as she moves into Scorpio portends a time of transformation and liberation from the old. This is an individualized process and depends largely on your personal chart and your environment. Having a strong need for order and beauty, you may find that it is time for you to move from your current living or work situations. They may no longer fit who you are or more who you have evolved into. This is the time for many to move on in their lives, leaving behind the old, the worn and the outdated. Let the changes come with ease and Grace and cease placing extra burdens on yourself through self-criticism.

C/BM/I-18 Nov 09

SCORPIO: The powerful sword of discernment is at work in your life, as Venus and Mars enter your sign this month. You will be able to achieve much over these coming weeks. Your tendency however, is to push yourself and others, so remember to go gently and to remind yourself that there is plenty of time to achieve all your goals. Pluto being activated by the Full Moon and Sun later in the month will allow for some more purging of the old paradigm. As the past dissolves effortlessly now you tap into an inner guidance with more clarity then ever before. Your intuition is heightened and senses honed. SAGITTARIUS: Jupiter re-enters Pisces for it’s spiritual journey until January next year. Although the pace slows a little, you will well remember what these past three months have brought to your life and bring confident anticipation of what is to come throughout 2011. Use this time to review all that has transpired in your life and harness this month’s Full Moon portal and propel yourself in the direction you need to go now. There are adjustments and changes to be made and this is the time to slowly and methodically go about making them. There is no need to rush or push this process. All is in Divine Order. CAPRICORN: Saturn moves along at quite a pace now in the sign of Libra. Relationship seems to have taken on a new meaning and is moving in an entirely different and seemingly supported flow. Enjoy this sense of the new. You are in a long process of transformation and unfolding which will set you in good stead for the years to come. The patience you have acquired is to be used in all areas of your life. If you have been too hard on yourself over recent months, now is a good time to regenerate and recharge your batteries. Following the natural cycle of the body allows you to harness your fullest potential. AQUARIUS: Jupiter joins Uranus this fortnight and with that brings accelerated change and growth for all of us, and especially you. In the sign of Pisces once more, just to recap all the spiritual changes and to enhance them. Remember the ruler of Pisces, Neptune, is still in your sign as well. These past years of unfolding and moving into a softer and gentler way of being is a welcome relief, although at times still a little confusing. All that you’ve acquired will be used over the coming years to bring about the necessary changes within your environment and community. You are settled enough within your own self, to be of great assistance. PISCES: As the Sun now moves in Virgo, your polar opposite sign, you are motivated to make more of a commitment to your health regime. You see the necessity to make changes and to adhere to a schedule. Uranus and Jupiter in Pisces continuing to make changes and to balance out the earthly with the transcendental. Both are necessary. Something that aids this balancing act; the meditative and the physical is what is most needed now. Your dreams continue to reveal to you what is occurring and how you are healing, as well as what the coming trends will be. Take some much needed rest.

Picasa supports a number of online photo printing services as well as standard desktop printing. More Gadgets Galore. In this issue I’ve another neat sport-type camera and information about a great FREE software title from Google (of course), called Picasa! Enjoy. X170 Action Camera

The camera itself records directly onto an SD card, plus it has a 1.5 inch screen that allows for easy playback. The lens is wide angle and records at 720 by 480 pixels at 30fps. As far as the mounting goes it includes a helmet-grip, head-strap, goggle and handlebar mounts, then finally your average Velcro strap for anything else. The battery life is pretty weak, it only runs for an hour on the AA batteries. Since they are just normal batteries, you could always just carry around some spares. http://www.driftinnovation.com/products.html US$200 Picasa - Free Photo Editing and Management Software If you’re into photography as a hobby as I am, and you’re looking for software to help you manage and edit your photos, Picasa (http://picasa.google.com/) is a free tool you should check out. Picasa consists of a desktop program that you must download and an optional online storage and display service. The Picasa desktop app features automatic scanning of one’s drives for photos and grouping of similarly named photos into virtual folders; that is, the photos appear on screen in “folders” labeled “CompanyPicnic” but remain physically right where they are. Picasa even has a facial recognition feature that effectively says, “Oh, look, there’s Sis, we’ll put this pic in the ‘Sis’ folder.” You can add tags to photos to group them under Picasa, too. Having experimented with Picasa a few months, I must say this automated grouping does not work very well for me. Photos end up in unexpected and undesired virtual folders, actually more confusing than the familiar disk folders in which I have them stored. Editing tags and other metadata so that photos appear where I want them was rather tedious. Picasa’s photo editing features include red-eye reduction and color enhancement as well as standard features such

You can search by keywords in the Picasa search bar, which will search filenames, captions, tags, folder names, and other metadata associated with a photo. Much like Google Search, Picasa supports Boolean operators so you can specify search strings such as “Brad but NOT with Sue OR dog.” This can help you find exactly the photo you have in mind among hundreds of photos of Brad. Geotagging, or associating a photo with a location such as Yellowstone National Park, is supported in the Windows version of Picasa but not on Mac platforms.

Instead of just being the adventurous type, be the adventurous type that forces everyone to watch videos of you bouncing down the mountainside on your bicycle. This X170 sports cam is the perfect way to film every single one of your action moves. It comes with all sorts of ways to attach it to just about anything.

CCTV & PABX

Picasa Web Albums are the online photo-sharing component of the Picasa application. Similar to Flickr or Photobucket, Web Albums let you upload photos from your desktop, phone, and other sources to public or private albums. Up to 1 GB of storage space is provided free of charge; if you need more photos online, you can lease up to 6 TB of storage space. That’s enough space for about 6 million photos in 5.0 megapixel format. Web Albums has a “Blog This” feature which enables one to easily post a photo stored in Web Albums to a blog posting. The Picasa desktop app comes in various flavors for Windows, Mac, and Linux. The Linux version requires Wine, a Windows emulation program that lets Windows programs run under Linux; Wine is bundled with the Picasa Windows app for Linux users to download. Overall, Picasa is a good photo editing, organizing, and online distribution application. In my opinion, it strives to do many things and ends up doing some of them imperfectly. But I have a couple of friends who are really into photography, and they rave about Picassa. So there’s no doubt it can be a useful tool for shutterbugs, Web designers, bloggers, and others who work with digital photos.

Kids These Days, I Tell You “Ohhhh we used to DREAM of livin’ in a corridor! Woulda’ been a palace to us. We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woken up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us!” – Michael Palin of Monty Python in the Four Yorkshiremen sketch Parents in Singapore put children on waiting lists for playgroups and Montessori schools before they are born and register for primary schools years in advance. A sister-in-law in America has the summer activities for her pre-teen girl and boy planned out until their university years, fearful that too few extracurricular activities will make it difficult for them to get into the “good” universities. And my sister, a 30-year mathematics teacher in Louisville, Kentucky, says her “kids” take courses such as physical education and driver’s education in summer months so they can participate during the year in orchestra, drama, debate and the academic pastimes that look better on high school transcripts. Meanwhile, on Facebook, friends from high school are on a nostalgia kick and have been posting pictures from 30 years ago that show summers and school breaks spent hiking and at the beach, and school days more concerned with sports rivalries, the prettiest girls and the handsomest boys. That’s what I remember from high school years, too – classmates, the things we did for fun, the trouble we got into. I remember teachers as well, but not for anything taught in the classroom – not a scrap of chemical formulae, nary the proper name for any grammatical structure beyond noun, verb and object. The things I do remember are reading Louis L’Amour novels with the book hidden under my desk, listening to the World Series on a transistor radio and updating my classmates on the score, and sleeping through math classes and then frustrating the teacher by acing all of his exams. Now my oldest son has just started his own years of formal education, and I’m worried about the quality of the school we are sending him to – although I am mostly just happy that he is smiling and eager to be going to school when he wakes up in the morning – but I’m also worried of pushing him too hard. My own parents had a curious apathy toward the schooling of myself and my siblings – probably because there just weren’t many options. We lived in an Asian country and there was nothing like the number of schools available to expatriates today. At the high school level,

families chose between the international school and the missionary school and the choice was usually made more on location than on personal philosophy. In the couple of years we lived in the U.S., in small towns in Oklahoma and Texas, we simply went to the nearest public school – much like my parents did when they were growing up. My parents seemed to assume that somehow we’d end up getting everything that we needed to prepare us for life. We went to school during the week, church on the weekends, and signed up for baseball, swimming and other activities for our periods of leisure – or just ran wild in the towns, cities and villages where we lived, using public transportation, bicycles and feet to explore and experience the world around us, with little fear or worry from mother and father that we wouldn’t survive and thrive. Result? A school teacher, a petroleum engineer, a journalist and a businessman. Solid middle-of-the-road results, I would say. The important thing is that my parents let us find our own way – either by design or benign neglect. That might not be the way to bring up millionaire sports stars or classical pianists, but I and my siblings are all family-oriented people not overly concerned with material things or chasing wealth and possessions -a sign that my parents did more right than wrong. These days kids don’t have a moment’s peace. Days are crammed with extra study and outside tutors in an effort to keep them at pace with how fast we have allowed the world to become. Our educational systems – at least in the Western-minded world – have become more about the ever-faster transfer of information rather than about the teaching of values and character.

Result? Snooki and The Situation, Survivor, The Amazing Race, and self-absorption to a degree unknown except in the rarefied – and untypical for the time – air of 1930s Hollywood.

Local News Indonesian Volcano Erupts for 2nd Day An Indonesian volcano dormant for four centuries erupted for the second straight day Monday (31/8), shooting clouds of hot ash more than a mile into the air and forcing 30,000 people to flee. Some domestic airplanes had to be diverted because of poor visibility. Many villagers living along the slopes of Mount Sinabung in North Sumatra province wore masks as they packed their belongings and headed to emergency shelters, mosques and churches, said Andi Arief, a presidential adviser on disasters. Their abandoned homes and crops were blanketed in gray soot and the air was thick with the smell of sulfur. While two people died-a 64-year-old woman from respiratory problems, and a 52-year-old man from a heart attack-it was too early to say if the volcano was to blame, said Priyadi Kardono of the National Disaster Management Agency. Sinabung last erupted in 1600, so observers don’t know its eruption pattern and admitted over the weekend they had not monitored it closely before it started rumbling days ago in the lead-up to Sunday’s first, less-powerful blast. Hours later, the alert was raised to the highest level. Like other volcanoes along the Sumatra fault line-the meeting point of the Eurasian and Pacific tectonic plates that have pushed against each other for millions of years-it has the potential to be very destructive. Stiff magna forming inside the conical tip can act as a plug, allowing pressure to build up until it reaches a bursting point. “A volcano with a long repose period could deliver a more powerful eruption,” as was the case with Pinatubo in the Philippines in 1991, which killed about 800 people, said Alain Bernard, a professor at the University of Brussels.

Sinabung could either go back to sleep or produce a series of blasts with increasing intensity, he said. “A Pinatubo-size eruption is a rare event and unlikely to appear during the following days. It takes normally weeks or months,” said Bernard. Though strong wind shifts or a powerful follow-up blast could affect air traffic in nearby Singapore and Malaysia, Transportation Ministry spokesman Bambang Ervan said so far only four domestic flights heading to the provincial capital of Medan were diverted. The number of people evacuated had reached 30,000 by Monday afternoon, said Erni Damanik with the Tanah Karo district information center. Many people living along the base of the 8,000-foot mountain have also moved to outlying villages. Food, emergency tents, and medicine were on the way to the scene, officials said, including more than 17,000 respiratory masks. Indonesia is spread across 17,500 islands and is prone to volcanic eruptions and earthquakes because of its location within the so-called “Ring of Fire”- a series of fault lines stretching from the Western Hemisphere through Japan and Southeast Asia. It is also home to some of the largest eruptions in recorded history. The 1815 explosion of Mount Tambora buried the inhabitants of Sumbawa Island under searing ash, gas and rock, killing an estimated 88,000 people. The 1883 eruption of Krakatoa could be heard 3,200 kilometer away and blackened skies region-wide for months. At least 36,000 people were killed in the blast and the tsunami that followed.

Bali Governor Turns Down Keys to Brand-New Car Bali Governor Made Mangku Pastika stunned the provincial legislature into silence on Friday (24/8) when he rejected a proposal to buy new cars worth a total of Rp. 2 billion ($222,000) for him and his deputy, Anak Agung Gede Ngurah Puspayoga.

Astawa said during a three-day national retreat in Bali in April - featuring the president, his cabinet and governors from across the country - Pastika’s car “couldn’t keep up” with the presidential entourage. Budget committee deputy head Ketut Kariyasa Adnyana

“There’s no need to allocate any money toward buying a new car for me this year, because the car I’ve got right now still runs fine,” he said. “Perhaps next year.” Pastika’s official car, a Toyota Crown Royal Saloon, first went into service in 1997, but Pastika has not asked for a replacement since taking office in 2008. The issue of cars for state officials has long been contentious, with budget and anti-graft watchdogs denouncing the expense as wasteful. Several officials have in the past sparked controversy by either refusing to return the keys to their cars at the end of their tenure or by declining to accept vehicles that had been used by outgoing officials. Putu Astawa, the head of the provincial legislature’s special committee on the budget, said the body had offered the pair new cars because Pastika’s vehicle broke down frequently, while Puspayoga’s car, a Toyota Innova, was more of a family vehicle than an official conveyance.

said this resulted in the governor turning up late for events at the retreat, putting him in a bad light as the host. Astawa said that given Pastika’s and Puspayoga’s “very high mobility and busy schedules,” they deserved to have new cars that were more reliable and in keeping with their posts. He said the legislature had planned to purchase either a pair of Toyota Camrys or Land Cruisers for a total of Rp. 2 billion. “It’s unimaginable that the official car for the governor is shabbier than those for district heads,” Astawa said. “Plus if he’s using a new car, he doesn’t have to feel ashamed anymore,” he said. Pastika said he rejected the offer because he wanted the regional budget to be allocated to higher-priority items of greater relevance to the public like health care and education.

Bali Journalists Join to End Violence Against the Press Tens of journalists in Bali staged a rally on Sunday (22/8) in a show of solidarity with their colleague who was killed in a clash between two warring groups in the eastern Indonesian area of Tual on Saturday. The journalists signed a banner petition as a gesture of their support against attacks on journalists. “We will send the signatures and request for a probe into the killing of Sun TV news contributor Ridwan Salamun to the National Police chief and the Press Council for review,” Rofiqi Hasan, chairman of the Denpasar chapter of the Alliance of Independent Journalists (AJI), said. The banner was later displayed at the Sun TV bureau on Jl. Diponegoro in Denpasar. Ridwan died on his way to hospital after one of the conflicting groups attacked him. He suffered from hack wounds on his neck and back. In related developments, tens of journalists also staged a rally at the Hotel Indonesia roundabout in Jakarta on Sunday in a show of sympathy for late Ridwan Salamun. They urged the police to thoroughly investigate the case and bring the culprits to justice. The killing of Ridwan was an attempt to deprive the public of truth, chairman of the Indonesian Television Journalists Association (IJTI) Imam Wahyudi said on Sunday. (August 23rd 2010) Bali Entrepreneurs Expected to Care for Environment Bali’s entrepreneurs are expected to care for the environment to support the province’s Greening Program, the head of Bali`s Biological Environment Office, AA Alit Sastrawan, said here Wednesday (25/8). Sastrawan said all entrepreneurs who had businesses or industrial plants in Bali should support the program to make Bali green and clean. Entrepreneurs could endorse Bali’s green program in various ways such as participating in greening activity, caring for the disposal of plastic trash, protecting beaches from abrasion, and other environment preserving exercises. Though some entrepreneurs were already contributing to the care- for-the-environmental movement, some other entrepreneurs still lacked concern for the environment, he said. (August 26th 2010) Bali Wins another Tourism Award Bali has won “The Best Leisure Destination in Asia Pacific” award from the Business Travelers Asia Pacific magazine based in Hong Kong, a tourism official said. The award would be presented to the Bali provincial government at Contrad Hotel in Hong Kong on September 10, Head of the Bali Provincial Tourism Office Ida Bagus Subhiksu said here on Monday (23/8). Subhiksu said his office would coordinate with the Bali Tourism Board (BTB) to decide who would represent the local government to receive the award. “We hope that Bali Governor I Made Mangku Pastika will have a chance to go to Hong Kong to receive the award. He is good at Mandarin language so his presence will help promote the Bali tourism before hundreds of invitees there,” he said. The award will be the second received by the province this year. Earlier, Bali also received “World Best Island in Asia 2010” award from Travel and Leisure magazine based in New York. Bali’s success to win awards as best Resort Island for the umpteenth time would no doubt boost the province’s tourism industry, he said. “The award was mostly likely inspired by the film titled Eat, Pray, Love (EPL) which stars Hollywood actress Julia Robert,” he said. (August 23rd 2010) Twenty-Nine Houses Damaged in Violent Bali Clash At least 29 houses were damaged and eight people injured after two neighborhood groups at Pengastulan village in Buleleng district, North Bali, clashed early Sunday (29/8). “Some of the residents carried pointed weapons and some threw Molotov cocktails at one of the houses but it did not cause fire. They pelted stones, bottles and roof tile fragments at each other. The clash settled after the police came to restore the situation,” Pengastulan village head Ketut Yasa said. Three of the injured were in a critical condition. They were identified as Muhamad Syarif and Muhammad Azim of Kauman neighborhood group and Putu Suarjana of Pala neighborhood group, Ketut said. Some of the injured were treated at a nearby hospital, while the others treated their injuries themselves, he said. Seririt subdistrict head Putu Kariaman said the clash was the fourth of its kind in the past few years. The two conflicting neighborhood organizations were reconciled after the security agencies held a meeting with the figures from both sides at around 2 p.m. on Sunday. (August 30th 2010)

Bali Continues Eliminating Stray Dogs Despite Int’l Protest The Bali provincial administration continues to cull stray dogs despite international protests, spokesman I Ketut Teneng said here on Sunday (29/8). Teneng added that the decision to maintain the stray dog elimination policy was aimed at preventing the spread of rabies spread by the dogs. He argued, the Bali authorities had also vaccinated pet dogs as well as implementing the cull. Up till now some 977,461 stray dogs had been killed, and 348,069 dogs vaccinated. Dog bite cases in Bali had reached 25,531 since the rabies outbreak in 2008. The number of dog bite cases had raised demand for anti-rabies vaccines. Until now, Bali had used 23,031 vials of the vaccines, and still has 15,582 more available ready for use. Teneng said he hoped that the administration’s action in dealing with stray dogs may eliminate rabies there in 2012. The Bali provincial administration has allocated Rp16.07 billion from its own budget for rabies eradication this year. The funds are channeled through the regional animal husbandry and animal health offices. Of the total of Rp. 16.07 billion, Rp. 3.38 billion would be used for operational activities, health care and prevention of infectious diseases. Despite mass dog culls aimed at preventing rabies outbreaks since August 2009, the number of districts affected by the potentially fatal disease had more than tripled after first appearing in two districts in November last year. (August 30th 2010) US Man Arrested for Pulling the Plug on Early Morning Prayer Call - Lombok Authorities have arrested an American man for blasphemy after he pulled the plug on a loudspeaker at a mosque because it woke him up, police say. Luke Gregory Lloyd, 64, was taken into custody after he disrupted a nightly Koran reading session near his home on Lombok which was being broadcast over the mosque’s loudspeaker during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. The incident happened on August 22 and Lloyd has been under police guard at a hotel ever since, pending further investigations. “He got angry as the Koranic reading woke him up. He scolded people in the mosque before pulling out the loudspeaker’s cable,” police officer Lalu Mahsun told reporters. He could face five years in jail under the mainly Muslim country’s blasphemy laws. (August 30th 2010) Retired American Serviceman Jailed in Bali for Drugs A 61-year-old retired US serviceman in Bali was sentenced to nine months in prison on Wednesday (25/8) for possession of 8.5 grams of marijuana. Joseph Michael Malone was vacationing on the resort island when he was arrested at Padang-Padang Beach in South Kuta on April 28. Police said Malone was trying to dispose of a white bag filled with marijuana as they approached him on the beach. Detectives from the Denpasar Police later examined the drug and confirmed that it was marijuana. The court heard that Malone later admitted to police that he had bought the drugs for Rp 8 million ($890) from some sailors while on holiday in Padang, West Sumatra. The Denpasar District Court found Malone guilty of violating Article 127 of the 2009 Narcotics Law. “The court sentences the defendant to nine months in prison, with a reduction for time served while the defendant was held awaiting trial,” Judge Sutama said in the verdict. Indonesia’s drug laws are notoriously heavy. Malone’s sentence, however, was more lenient than the one-year in prison that prosecutors had demanded. When handing down the verdict, the panel of judges said they took into account the defendant’s remorse and lack of a criminal record in awarding a lighter sentence. Malone’s lawyer, I Nyoman Jaya, said his client would not file an appeal. “At the start of the trial, we filed a motion asking that the defendant be acquitted on all charges,” Jaya said. “But since the motion was not granted, we think the sentence is fair.” (August 25th 2010)

138 Passengers Rescued After Ferry Runs Aground in Bali Nearly 140 passengers were finally rescued unharmed from a ferry on Friday (27/8) morning after it ran aground in Singaraja, Bali, on Thursday evening. Ospar Silaban, a local official from state-owned transportation management company ASDP, told the Jakarta Globe that 138 passengers were evacuated from the ill-fated Darma Rucitra after it was left high and dry in Tanjung Gowa after a crossing from East Java. “Our priority was rescuing the passengers and thank God all of them survived,” he said. He said the accident was caused by “natural factors,” namely heavy seas and strong ocean currents. The ship remains beached and salvage crews are waiting for high tide this afternoon before attempting to refloat the vessel. On Wednesday, the Putra Romo carrying more than 26 passengers sank in Badung Strait, Bali. Nine passengers died and another two are missing, feared. A police investigation revealed the boat was overcrowded and their were no lifejackets (August 27th 2010) Bali Has Earmarked 66 Billion to Green the Island The Bali Government has earmarked Rp66 billion in its budget to reforest fallow and critical land everywhere in the province over the next five years, a local forestry official said. “We will replant deforested and critical land covering a total area of 25,346 hectares scattered in various districts and cities in stages over a period of five years,” Ida Agung Buana, head of Bali’s forestry service, said here Tuesday (31/8). The annual reforestation target was a minimum of 5,000 hectares per year with the replanting process to take place inside or outside protected or village forests. He said for the private and individual sectors, the local government had set up free seedling distribution centers in eastern, southern, northern and central Bali. Companies or individuals who have land they wish to reforest can obtain tree seedlings free of charge from the centers. The reforestation program was to be implemented to support the Bali provincial government’s program to make a clean and green province, a province with a green economy and green culture, Buana said. (31st August 2010) 2,500-Year-Old Human Remains Discovered in Bali Archeologists in Bali say they have unearthed ancient human remains that date back to about 500 B.C. at a village in the islands southeast. Ayu Kusumawati, a researcher from the Denpasar Archeological Society, said on Sunday (29/8) that two sarcophagi had been discovered by a bricklayer in a quarry near Keramas village in Gianyar. She said the group opened one of the stone caskets on Sunday. It contained a human skeleton with all the bones intact. The second sarcophagus is set to be opened on Monday. Ayu said both of the coffins had identical markings on the outside, which culminated in a tortoise-shaped relief at the top. A pitcher was also found inside the opened sarcophagus. The findings, she said, indicated that the remains were about 2,500 years old. “Both the pitcher and the sarcophagi show signs of advanced stonework and ironwork,” she said. Burials in sarcophagi were exclusively the domain of the nobility, Ayu added, while the tortoise motifs represented the channel through which the spirits of those inside could journey to the afterlife. Meanwhile, the archeological society’s chairman, Wayan Suantika, said the latest findings brought to 16 the total number of sarcophagi unearthed at Keramas over the past four years. In May, four burial plots were found, although each had already been opened and their contents emptied, he said. Suantika said that his organization was working with the Prehistoric Artifacts Preservation Society and the local administration to establish a museum in the area to house the discovered sarcophagi. “Obviously it won’t be easy, but once we get this museum in place, it will be a huge drawing card for tourists,” he said.

The effects are becoming all to clear. Since 2007 food prices overall have risen by 90% but far more ominous the prices for basic staples have risen far more rapidly with no end in sight with grain at 154%, corn 125%, soy 107% and rice doubling in seven months to 122%.

Well, yes actually, I did sort of know but I hadn’t really adjusted to the reality of expensive food. I still haven’t, Middle Class but no Burgers please…. though I’m forced to acknowledge the sad fact, whatever Australian Scientific journalist Julian Cribb, is the latest to warn my grumbles. us of our imminent peril in his book “The Coming Famine” subtitled “The Global Famine and What We Can Do to Avoid The Grocer’s Lot It”.

12 billion mouths to feed Fifty years ago a billion people were starving or undernourished. Today it’s up 500 million. Actually, that’s progress. Back then that was one-third the human race, now it’s one sixth. In 1968 there were some 3 billion people on earth and today there 6.8 billion. If we have more than doubled world population in fifty years how many of us do you think there will be in another fifty? UN projections foresee a 33% increase by 2030 (9.0 billion) and 12 billion by 2060. How in God’s name are we going to feed so many?

Optimism from the Gaia Hypothesis

A last sobering word of qualification and perspective from Prof. James Lovelock. I don’t think humans react fast enough or are clever enough to handle what’s coming up. I’m an optimistic pessimist. There are already too many people on Earth and with global warming at 4°C, which is where we are headed, we could not survive with even one-tenth our current population. We could not find enough food, unless we synthesised it. Because of this, the cull during this century is going to be huge, up to 90%. The number of people remaining at the end of the century will probably be a billion or less. It’s happened before: Malthusian fears of an overpopulated world unable to feed between the ice ages there were bottlenecks when there were itself have been with us since the 18th century and have proved only 2,000 people left.

“Hadn’t you heard, the age of cheap food is over?”, Ibu Susan retorted tersely one day a couple of years back as I was grumbling to her about the succession of price hikes on a number of staple items. Decent olive oil for example, acceptable soy milk, a nice piece of fresh fish, non-rancid walnuts, even plain old legumes or oatmeal, not to mention fresh blueberries. You know, the every day things that keep us expats happy.

Break the Arc: Golfing the South Coast My father, a hardscrabble sign painter from Nova Scotia, never taught me a love of sports – not even hairy-chested blue collar contests like football or hockey. He was more adept at raising a glass of Ballantine Ale than exerting himself on the sports field. Golf was even more socially distant. Terms like birdie and mulligan still sound arcane. Chasing around a little white ball to hit into a four inch hole? No way. My only exposure to golf was a summer spent at a caddy camp in Buzzard’s Bay, Massachusetts. I remember carrying the bags of the scion of the Rand McNally publishing empire and his wife for nine holes and retrieving buckets of brand name golf balls from ponds to sell for 50 cents apiece. That was a lot of money to a kid in 1958. But sometimes you have to interrupt the formation of habits before they become too encrusted. For 10 years I’ve lived on the island of Bali – home to some of the finest golf courses in Asia – and it was time to break the trajectory and learn how to play this esoteric and ancient game. By all appearances, such a leisurely pursuit looked like it could help take the pressure off and teach me to appreciate the good things in life like walking in the fresh air, companionship and the grand outdoors. I would also be propping up a sport in recession because of changing family dynamics, loss of pensions and corporate cutbacks.

played Bali’s Handara Kosaido Golf & Country Club up in the high country of Bedugul, but prefers the Nirwana. “The Nirwana doesn’t advertise itself – it doesn’t have to - so I just decided to try it out and have come back again and again ever since. It’s not an easy course but it’s a bargain. The Vines in western Australia, the Blue Canyon in Phuket, and even Nusa Dua all charge more, and you’d pay twice as much in Hawaii.” “We usually come in January when it’s still hot,” John went on. “In Perth it can get up to 30 or 40 C., so we can handle the heat. Sometimes we even play in the middle of the day. Although the headwind is ferocious near the ocean, there’s an interesting mix of holes in the back nine. The 13th and 14th are tough if you don’t get a good T-shot. The 7th hole, overlooking the temple, can be intimidating because you really want to make it over.” Inveterate golfer Bob Kendall, owner of Sanur’s popular hangout Borneo Bar, told me “For those of us who sit around the bar fantasizing about playing a $500 round at Pebble Beach, Nirwana’s course may be as close as we’ll ever get to approximating that fantasy. It is a magnificent piece of ocean front real estate carved into a beautiful five star golf course with enough challenges to satisfy every class of golfer. To top it all off, they even call their competent young girl caddies “green mates.” Not just eye candy, these multilingual young caddies are trained for three months in the rudiments of the game. They know the course cold and will tell you where to hit, what club to use, the distance in either meters or yards, and will point out what you’re doing wrong (“You are bringing your shoulder too much under.”). Indonesian caddies are strong, hardworking and can endure long hours under the hot sun. Female caddies are also much better at calming golfers if they flub a putt or drive into the rough. Some Indonesian golfers even hire two caddies each, one for the clubs and one for the umbrella, creating the farcical spectacle of up to 15 people walking up to a hole.

in thatched bale with 180 degree views of the ocean, gazed up at blue skies full of enormous billowy clouds, wandered over Zen-like rock gardens and ponds, swam in multiple lagoon style swimming pools, slept with my balcony doors The Signature 7th Hole open to the sound of the sea. Immersing myself in the calm and serenity of the place, for several days there was no inclination whatsoever to venture off the premises. The property is in fact secluded. This is its greatest asset if you want to play a lot of golf or are looking for a stunning self-contained resort where the family can relax and unwind in style. But for those who hunger for some hustle and bustle and want to see a little bit more of Bali, they must avail themselves of the hotel’s free shuttle service. At 1 pm on Saturday, I boarded the shuttle from the Nirwana to Kuta Beach, which is about as frenetic as Bali can get. The hotel van parked in the basement of the Discovery Mall and its passengers quickly dispersed. I walked along the promenade under shady ketapang trees past braiders, tattooists and bracelet, beach ware, sunglass and hat vendors. There were showers, changing rooms, toilets, fresh fruit and snack stands, open-air musholla for praying, and even recycle bins and trash receptacles. The atmosphere was very civilized. I remembered that sellers in and masseuse in the old days were bolder.

My First Golf Lesson Pan Pacific Nirwana Golf & Country Club

As I was fortunate enough to have the grandiose and luxuriant grounds of the Nirwana Golf Resort on Bali’s southwest coast in my backyard, it finally became a temptation too hard to resist. Established 13 years ago, now under the management of Pan Pacific, what makes this ocean-side property world-class is its spectacular location looking over Tanah Lot, one of the most photographed religious shrines in the world. Designed by celebrated golfer Greg Norman, the Pan Pacific Nirwana consistently ranks among Asia’s best golf courses in leading golf magazines. Nirwana’s breathtaking signature 7th hole is played across crashing ocean waves onto an absurdly angled green. With its two other cliff-top holes, unique and challenging hazards, open inland landscaping interspersed with rice fields, variety of landforms including deep valleys, creeks, dense jungle backdrops, the course has even been compared favorably to another legendary seaside golf course, California’s Pebble Beach.

Tanah Lot

Your first lesson can make or break your relationship with the game, so your pro must be encouraging, patient and a natural teacher. These qualities were well represented in Pak Darma, born in 1970 in Bali’s mountainous Lake Bratan region where his family cultivated Golf Lesson with Pak Darma cabbages and carrots. The first time Pak Darma swung a club was in 1980 at the Handara Kosaido, a homemade driver that that he made out of cemara wood. The headmen of his village, who was a golfer, took an interest in him and got him a job as a caddy. The ten-year-old would sneak onto the course late at night, using a cigarette lighter to see the ball. On the morning of my lesson, I walked the shaded roadway from the hotel lobby to the clubhouse. We then drove carts to the driving range. Park Darma first laid down four clubs like spokes of a wheel, and then lined up my feet, shoulders and arms. It looked deceptively simple as he showed me how to hit a ball. A few minutes into the lesson I started to appreciate how learning to play golf is the ceaseless study of pure science – the exactness of posture and grip, the precision of the swing, the mathematics of ball position, the importance of tempo and consistency. For ten whole minutes we just worked on the correct stance. Another five minutes was devoted to how to grip the club handle. The next 15 minutes was dedicated to the correct swing.

In the mid-afternoon I checked in, then strolled to the far end of the high-ceilinged lobby of the Nirwana and - wham! – the classic view of the temple. The tide was out so I walked five minutes along the rocky beach into a swarm of perhaps two thousand people, half of who were taking photographs of the other half. Beyond the crowds, I headed up past the long line of souvenir stands and supped on hot corn on the cob with a splash of sambal while watching throngs of garland-wearing, flip-flopping, camera-toting, water-guzzling, hand-holding, high-heel stepping tourists of every age, stature, language and disposition stream noisily by in both directions. North of the entrance, on the road to Tabanan, I did a full circle by turning in at the hotel’s elaborate main entrance and sauntering through the property’s vast and undulating expanse of greens and fairways. Because it is completely surrounded by an 18-hole golf course, this 103-hectare hotel property is the largest on Bali, a visual masterpiece.

My first hit sent the ball soaring. Pak Darma said “Bagus. Do it again.” On my next swing, the turf I gouged out flew further than the ball, but at least the club didn’t fly out of my hands. I then began missing the ball, swinging too high; a series of endless and ineffectual practice swings caused by bad posture. I was twisting my body too much, he said. Pak Darma made continuous simple corrections, customizing the lesson just for me. I tried not to think so much, to stay in the moment. Then thwack! I popped half a dozen nice balls, a shame to waste on a practice tee. But at least now I could hit the damn ball. I asked Pak Darma if this is the hardest club to learn. “No,” he said. “That one is,” as he pointed to the putter. On that first day what I mostly came away with was that golf is a hard game with an exacting and demanding technique. I liked the sensation of hitting the ball. I enjoyed driving the golf cart around, especially on such a princely estate like the Nirwana, and taking an infinitesimal part in one of the world’s great golf resort experiences.

Golfer’s Tales

Into the Heart of the Beast

That afternoon I sat down in the hotel lounge with regular visitor John Charouhas and his wife Maria from Perth. John has also

Though the Nirwana doesn’t have a beach, the dramatic scenery and the romantic location more than make up for it. I read books

I first visited Kuta in 1972 when it was a dusty fishing village where o old men stroked their fighting cocks in the back lanes, rows of jjukung reposed inside long grass huts, laughing naked children p played under the palms, and small groups of travelers gathered a at sunset along the beach to strum guitars and drink tuak (palm w wine) before heading back to bamboo losmen lit only by tiny flickering kerosene lamps.

Sunset at Kuta Beach by Egor Pasko

Now five building cranes broke the skyline over a solid pulsing cacophonous mass of urban sprawl one mile deep, a transformation so sweeping and irrevocable as to render the scene almost unrecognizable from those early evenings of 38 years ago. I headed back to the shuttle pick up point at 5:30 pm sharp and ended the night one last time wandering the hotel’s moonlit cliff paths above the breaking waves.
