Rockin’ Good Entertainment Line up for Cup Day local rocker Marina Sidik and her band New Energy as a precursor to legendary Noiseworks frontman Jon Stevens, who wouldn’t want to be part of the fun on cup day!

Canggu News submissions for future editions are welcome to be emailed to: canggueditor@yahoo.com

Talented singer songwriter Stevens has been belting out memorable ballads for over three decades now and yours truly will certainly be up front and centre to see this rock idol perform again. (Ahhh swoon……!) In addition to his Noiseworks days and a four year stint fronting another Aussie band INXS, the seasoned performer also embarked on a successful solo career some years ago and hasn’t missed a beat.

If you are submitting information about a future event, please be sure to provide accurate details regarding time and place and include pictures where relevant.

Word has it that lately the iconic Aussie rock legend has been warming up his vocal chords around Australia as he promotes his new solo album, ‘Woman’. Featured on The Morning Show on September 18th, Jon Stevens’ performance confirmed he continues to be a consummate entertainer and clearly a crowd favourite who’ll be sure to wow the punters at this year’s hot ticket event for Melbourne Cup.

What’s that? Haven’t got your tickets for Bali’s Biggest Melbourne Cup Lawn Party yet? I’d be galloping on in to the Canggu Club pronto before it’s too late! Over half of the tickets for the decadent champagne marquee have already sold and whispers about town indicate that they’ll be hot property to have on cup day! But don’t despair, some tables are still available as well as tickets for the cocktail area.

Seriously, with an entertainment line up the likes of

If you live, work, have a business or just have some exciting news about this area then we want to hear from you!

Once you have sorted your snazzy race attire and secured your marquee table or tickets for the cocktail tent, be sure to arrive early on Cup Day so you don’t miss a moment of the fun. Gates open at 10am and there will be multiple television screens positioned throughout the Canggu Club, perfect for punters eager to make the most of all of the Spring Racing Carnival action with three hours of free flow commencing from 11am.

Fashions on the field, prizes for best dressed and a bounty of raffles throughout the day will ensure that the party continues long after Aussie racing’s main event is done and dusted. Champagne marquee members will enjoy canapés followed by a sumptuous three course feast, and of course fabulous French bubbles! Cocktail tent

ticket holders can partake in a slightly less formal affair of Chandon, icy cold beers and Babich wines as they munch on canapés on arrival. This lavish lawn party is THE place to be on Tuesday November 3 and the entertainment continues through until 8pm.

Despite the fact that the discounted early bird tickets have sold out, there are still some tickets available for the cocktail area and the marquee and Canggu Club Gold and Platinum card holders can also take advantage of the members’ discount by emailing res@cangguclub.com or by booking in person at Canggu Club Reception.

Bounce Brings Smiles to the Faces of Kesayan Ikang Papa Orphans Sadly, as is the case for many countries without adequate government funding gazetted to support the mentally and physically challenged, many families in Bali struggle to care for their handicapped youngsters. Despite the numerous orphanages scattered across the island, some are inefficiently run and only a few have the facilities and carers to cope with the numerous children facing these daily challenges.

Built in 1986 by the Gianyar government in connection with a school for disabled children and at the behest of the wife of the Regent, Panti Asuhan Kesayan Ikang Papa (which simply translates to orphan house passionate for the poor) was created as a home for poor and disabled orphans.

Located on Jalan Kebo Iwa in Gianyar, the orphanage is home to just under 30 kids, 23 of whom are deaf and mute and 5 mentally handicapped, with a further 30 students attending the school on a daily basis.

Each month, as a part of Canggu Club’s commitment to supporting the less fortunate children of Bali and in an effort to provide a day out with a difference where the children could enjoy activities to stimulate the senses, the kids of Kesayan Ikang Papa were invited to an afternoon at Cubby House Kids Club, Bounce and Strike Bowling.

21 of the orphanage’s charges, ranging from ages 6 to 15 years attended the afternoon and their excitement was evident in the smiles on their dials! From afternoon tea at Cubby House, the children were keen to go off and try their

hand on the trampolines at Bounce and smash down some pins at Strike Bowling. Despite their different disabilities, communication between the kids was clear as they laughed and joked cheekily.

After an afternoon of activity and some refreshments, the children and their carers came together again to accept donations of much needed supplies of shoes, clothes, linen and toiletries made possible through the generosity of some Canggu Club members. Though there is a small amount of funding from the government each year, the orphanage survives largely on private donations from the parents of the day students at the school as well as some annual funding from orphanage sponsors, Amandari. Despite this, supplies are always needed and greatly appreciated. Should you wish to make a donation to Kesayan Ikang Papa, please contact the Canggu Club or for more information about

their VIP program http://www.cubbyhousekidsclub.com/vipprogram-canggu Kesayan Ikang Papa also offers a scholarship program that enables you to support an orphan at the school. Although education is free in Indonesia, many costs are still incurred for living, transportation, books, uniforms and various other necessities. Along with providing a nurturing and nourishing environment for the kids, the orphanage also aims to furnish the children with a few skills they may be able to use once they leave school. Sponsorships giving children the opportunity to learn painting and dance can also be arranged through contacting the centre.

For more information about the orphanage, contact them on Email: info@kiporphanage.com or telephone: +62 361 975333.

Solemen on Safari!

Who wouldn’t jump at the opportunity of an adventurous day out to a safari park?

On Tuesday September 22nd, Solemen and Bali Safari and Marine Park joined forces to ensure the children from Solemen were in for a day to remember!

With generous provision of the Safari Park’s own buses to transport the eager group to the venue, the children, their families and the Solemen crew arrived at the park around 9am, brimming with excitement and anticipation for the day that lay ahead.

The adventure commenced with a tour around the park, introducing the children to a variety of animals native to

14 October - 28 October, 2015

Africa, India and Indonesia. The live animal presentation followed, engaging the audience members as well as engendering considerable amusement from the crowd! All laughs aside, the show was also a valuable educational experience for the group.

Refuelled and re-energised with a scrumptious morning tea, the crew were then treated to an audience with the elephants! The Solemen group had the incredible opportunity to witness these majestic creatures up close and personal, interacting with their well trained handlers and learning about how to correctly treat the pachyderms to ensure their safety from future extinction. There was also a bit of lighthearted water play along with some intriguing history about the animals.

Lunch was next on the agenda and everyone took some time out to relax and enjoy one another’s company. It’s often important for families to catch up with each other so they can liaise and discuss changes, differences, issues and solutions between themselves. Solemen children were then presented with a creative mozaic project of filling and colouring the paper rhinoceros with different kinds of seeds and plasticine to create model rhinos. Of course it was the

Creativity & Design With a Conscience @ Odd

How does one describe a combination of creative talents, a desire to discover new designers and the aim to provide a platform for independent craftsmen and producers?

Well…….it’s Odd!

past the preloved wooden pallet exterior of the showroom/ design studio and out back to discover a garden area adjacent to an art space, intended for exhibitions and installations, product launches and events.

Not merely a stylish showroom boasting a funky fit out of cool concrete and white pallets displaying fabulous original designs, Odd also encompasses a cafe serving Japanese Kombucha, home grown coffee, tasty Pintxo (kind of like a Basque version of a bruschetta) and irresistibly sweet offerings from their culinary contributor, ‘Lovely’.

The plan is to provide this space as a platform to showcase new designers and artists and the perfect venue to host intimate launches and performances. September 26th saw local creative collective Ltd.Edison hold their art and photo exhibition along with the launch of the latest volume of their fanzine and there are many more Odd Events to come!

Located on Jalan Raya Semat, just before the entrance to the village, Odd is so much more than just your regular cafe-cum-homewares combo. If you are able to drag yourself away from their eclectic collection of quirky lamps, handcrafted occasional furniture, ceramics, lush leather items, clothing, cushions (oh the list goes on….) take a stroll

Odd seeks to differentiate itself from its competitors by offering a unique design space with a focus on fair trade and quality products sourced from artisans and craftsmen in and around Indonesia. With backgrounds in design, film, economics and social politics along with a concept that has evolved from one of the partner’s prior business ventures in

ideal activity to celebrate World Rhino Day! But the entertainment wasn’t over yet and the afternoon continued with a superb show outlining Bali’s history on one of the island’s largest theatre stages. A visual feast of colourful costumes, animal performances, traditional music and an enthralling storyteller, some of the Solemen kids were even treated to VIP front row seats and all eyes were glued to the stage.

Goody bags for everyone in attendance sealed the deal on an awesome day out and dazzling smiles all round were indicative of their appreciation for this amazing experience for the Solemen kids and their families!

Days such as these are not possible without the assistance of many and Solemen would like to sincerely thank Bali Safari and Marine Park for organising this outstanding experience, along with Dwain for live streaming the event to Australia and David Murrell from Nat Geo for taking the time to film and photograph the special day for Solemen’s children.

Experiences and events like this may be merely a day, but the memories will last a lifetime.

For more information about Solemen visit www.solemen.org Spain (google BROTS), the founders at Odd are hoping to innovate and change current trading patterns in Bali.

Attached to every item in the showroom is a price tag with a purpose! Of course the bottom line (ie price is there at the end of the ticket but it is the information above it that piques my interest. Each tag tells a little story about the design piece: What is it? Who created it? What are its origins? and even more importantly the complete breakdown as to exactly where that hard earned cash you just parted with is headed to. From the cost of materials, design and craftsmanship as well as a percentage to a nominated social project, it all makes perfect sense and negates any quibbles about the price. Seriously folks, these designer pieces are extremely affordable and no two pieces are exactly alike so you are buying a one off! Odd is not about mass production. Their passion is to make transparent, sustainable and fair design a reality at every level.

Open just over a month and despite being a little tucked away from the popular haunts of Batu Bolong and Echo Beach, these new kids in the “Gu have already secured a considerable following. Combine a showroom constantly evolving with new designs an art space highlighting fresh artistic talents and let’s not forget those tasty morsels in the cafe, Odd is a destination I will be heading to on a regular basis.

Showcasing the richness of Indonesian culture, the Festival will also host an extensive all-Indonesian ¿lm and music program, with highlights including a screening and live-video Q&A with Joshua Oppenheimer on his powerful companion piece to the Oscar-nominated The Act of Killing, as well as a Q&A with Indonesian pop-star Glenn Fredly, following the screening of cult-hit We Are Moluccans.

Not just for book-lovers, the UWRF also spans a range of creative and artistic events, from the Festival’s annual Poetry Slam to night parties, literary lunches, food tours and the Kitchen program, which will feature recipes from one of Indonesia’s oldest Sundanese tribes, as well as cooking demonstrations from celebrated chef Bara Pattiradjawane and cult-hero Rahung Nasution.

Indonesian history, culture and arts at the forefront of 2015 From October 28 – November 1, Ubud Writers & Readers Festival (UWRF) will celebrate its most Indonesia-focused and eclectic programs yet, reÀecting this year’s theme of ‘17,000 Islands of Imagination’ and showcasing the incredible diversity of the archipelago’s culture and arts.

From the tsunami-devastated shores of Aceh with awardwinning journalist Linda Christanty to the Eastern regions of Papua, where poverty and environmental degradation will be canvassed by Papuan novelist Aprila Wayar and filmmaker Nia Dinata, the 2015 UWRF spans the far stretches of the Indonesian archipelago.

Indonesian history will be a central component of the Festival’s Main Program – with 85+ panel sessions and talks across four days – with a special series dedicated to the 1965 Communist repression. Fifty years on, the attempted coup will be explored through the eyes of survivors, humanitarian workers and artists, including celebrated Indonesian writers Eka Kurniawan and Putu Oka Sukanta, who was detained without trial during the Suharto regime.

“Our theme this year was selected by the Indonesian Frankfurt Book Fair committee to represent this immense archipelago, and, as an act of solidarity, we have followed suit. Indonesia is the guest country at the 2015 Frankfurt Book Fair which I believe will herald a whole new era for Indonesian literature,” says Founder & Director Janet DeNeefe.

“Our program, more than ever before, has bought together some of the most engaging and diverse local voices.”

“While each year we bring together authors and artists from all corners of the globe, we are so proud to be presenting a program in 2015 that truly represents the vivacious, complex and extremely rich tapestry of Indonesian culture and the arts,” DeNeefe says.

“That we are able to do so reÀects the growing recognition of Indonesian literature in the global context, helping emerging and established authors and artists to thrive, and something that we are extremely proud to be a part of.”

UBUD NEWS LOCAL PEACE VICTORY I’m delighted to announce that Kopernik has been chosen as the Indonesian winner of the IIX-NPeace Innovation Challenge, a joint initiative by the N-Peace Awards, United Nations Development Programme UNDP, and Impact Investment Exchange Asia.

The challenge is an enterprise competition that aims to accelerate the peace-building agenda by supporting enterprises working to empower women, engage youth, and catalyze innovation and technology. Yayasan Kopernik is a local organisation that empowers women to become microsocial entrepreneurs, selling life changing, clean-energy technologies to remote villages (they describe it as “the last mile”). They aptly title these women ‘ibu inspirasi’.

Kopernik’s Wonder Women initiative involves scalable technologies - ranging from solar lanterns, to water ¿lters, to clean cook stoves - that are life changing because they strengthen Indonesia’s resilience. Support them by buying similar products, either for your own use or to assist a local Ubud family, many of who don’t have access to electricity or fresh water in their homes. http://iixnpeacechallenge.asiaiix.com/countries-indonesia/.

JAZZ CAFÉ’S UP FOR GRABS One of Ubud’s bestknown entertainment venues, Jazz Café, has officially closed its doors … at least, under its current ownership.

It’s a great opportunity for a smart investor.

Jazz Café started more than 15 years ago as a place for an outstanding slide guitarist to present his band, for locals and overseas tourists who loved Jazz. Fortunately his partner knew about delicious global cuisine –then dif¿cult to ¿nd in sleepy little Ubud – and the result became a winning and internationally renowned spot. We’ve seen some inspirational musicians and singers – both local and international –we’ve learnt salsa and West Coast Swing, and we’ve joined a myriad of celebrations and special events. The place is still buzzing, but the current owners have other interests and have decided to sell up.

He always offers a vibrant, high-energy stage performance, with lots of jokes and the kind of laughing, sparkling energy that makes every single guest feel like they are included and part of the party.

Laughing Buddha has great music almost every night, starting around 7.30-8pm; get there early to nab a table! In fact, slide in for a “happy hour” lychee martini – or two – and tuck into my favourite wanton soup. A perfect evening.

On Monkey Forest Road; phone: +62 361 970 928; check their latest schedule at www.laughingbuddhabali.com, CAFE PARADISO Gotta love Ubud.

Where else can you ¿nd a movie theatre that only costs $5/ 50,000rp, and if you buy food or drink, you get a credit of that ticket price!

There are at least two movies showing every day – alternative, indie, golden oldies, cult, adventure, children’s, romance – and you can sit in a comfortable chair or cushion and put your feet up.

Is this Paradiso, or Heaven!

Jazz Café is still popular with overseas tourists who love their laid back days in Ubud and want some equally sophisticated, laid-back night life. Recently, a ¿ve-star hotel right next door has added even more customers to the mix.

The venue is also for hire, with full use of their great audio/ visual facilities for presentations, slideshows and music.

Already special movie screenings, live music and dance shows, and lectures have been held in the theatre hall, which has the capacity to accommodate between 120 tableservice, and 250 standing guests.

Here’s hoping a new music-loving owner will come in quickly to put his or her own signature on the place, while offering more great nights of music, dance and song! For a real estate prospectus, email: gm@jazzcafebali.com.

BA Feature Article Meandering Chefs Find the Road to Local, Natural and Living Foods Part 3

By Ines Wynn For a 36-yearold, Indonesian chef Mandif Warokka has chalked up an impressive string of honors, a w a r d s , achievements and experiences that are the envy o f m a n y seasoned chefs.

He’s earned his spurs in the kitchens of Europe and the Middle-east, won numerous culinary competitions, starred as guest chef at Michelin restaurants in Europe, and ¿nally settled back in Indonesia to create his signature ¿ne dining restaurants Teatro Gastroteque in Seminyak and Blanco par Mandif at the Blanco Museum in Ubud.

Mandif gained his skills and experience in an intensive work apprenticeship in 5-star restaurants in the Middle East. Along the way he developed the love and passion that are the hallmark of good chefs, mostly thanks to the freedom to be creative. His turning point, the Eureka moment, arrived when he accidentally came across Thomas Keller’s book The French Laundry, and was totally enthralled by the perfect techniques, simple presentations and the respect for local ingredients advocated by this famous American chef. Mandif decided he wanted to be that type of chef. In the meantime he worked his way up the culinary ladder in various highly ranked hotels in Dubai and ¿nally landed in Bali to become Chef de Cuisine at the Banyan Tree’s Ju Ma Na restaurant. This was the perfect springboard to realize his next dream; that of opening his very own restaurant.

Mandif boldly strives to cast his Teatro Gastroteque into the ¿rst Michelin starred restaurant in Indonesia. His trademark culinary style is to apply an Asian twist to classic French cuisine and offer a highly creative choice of set menus with an amazing range of gastronomic combinations; the element of surprise is paramount. The set menus change every 45 days “to forestall boredom and keep the innovation as a primary force.“ “A good chef does not cook in the kitchen”, Mandif explains, “he cooks in his mind. In the kitchen it’s just application.”

In his mind, Mandif continually strives to discover new Àavors by combining known ingredients like salak and star anise in an innovative way to create new tastes. He is constantly experimenting with cutting-edge kitchen techniques like vacuuming and molecular cuisine.

“Imagination is key”, says Mandif, “you must imagine the Àavor ¿rst and break down the structure of an ingredient without losing the Àavor.” Deconstruction of ingredients in order to recombine them is a favored technique to create a new contrast between taste and texture. A technique like fermentation or a process that combines smoking, fermentation and sanding results in a re-energized Àavor.

According to Mandif, a chef needs to be a technician, a chemist and an artisan all rolled into one, like an alchemist.

His secret talent is having a discerning and sensitive palate which he considers cardinal to the successful pairing of ingredients. His skill is cooking in the mind. His leitmotif is to make his restaurants different. His goal for Teatro Gastroteque is to be a Michelin starred restaurant and his plan of action is to make the perfect combination of ingredients, cooking and service to make that dream come true. Always in touch with the newest food Àavors and fashions, Mandif predicts that the next trend in gastronomy will be purist, going back to the basics of using local ingredients in an innovative way. He is unceasingly scouting around for good local ingredients and mentions lontar vinegar as an example.

At Gastroteque, Mandif has assembled a stellar kitchen team that is headed by Executive Chef Maxie Millian. They have a long history of working together which started when they were both culinary students at the Bandung Institute of Tourism. They both share the same philosophy of applying innovative methods to classic cuisine in order to perfect a more consistent and controllable result. To them

the eye and the taste buds must get equal treatment.

Presentation and flavor should be equal, says Maxie, and he is always looking at the composition of his plate as a painting or picture, sometimes drawing and scaling the composition in his mind or on paper. Within the composition three Àavors are considered ideal as they do not overpower but complement each other. That means a base Àavor to which complementary Àavors are added.

Mandif recently opened his second restaurant, Blanco par Mandif, on the grounds of the Blanco Museum in Ubud. It strictly features modern Indonesian cuisine and he considers this the place, his lab as he calls it, where he can freely experiment with ethnic ingredients and Àavors from different parts of Indonesia and take them to another level. Mandif likes to think 5 years ahead. At both restaurants he strives to create value with great food at a decent price using local ingredients as much as possible.

Diana van Cranach is no stranger to healthy and natural food. “In fact”, she says, “I was one of the pioneers of raw and living food in Bali back in 2006.”

Though Diana’s culinary training came from the Cordon Bleu school, renowned for gastronomic excellence in the traditional style, her migration to raw and natural foods took shape early on. Born in the UK, she suffered inedible meals in a Welsh boarding school as a young girl and developed a keen interest in gourmet dining as a result; thanks also to frequent travels to the continent with her parents where she sampled the best restaurants. Diana’s travels later extended to Asia and the spicy foods of those countries added another dimension to her palate. She moved to Bali in the late 90’s and proceeded to create a quiet hideaway in northwest Bali, called it Puri Ganesha and started to mold the trademark cuisine the resort is famous for. That meant healthy, fresh, wholesome food created with imagination from local produce and ingredients from Southeast Asia. It did not take her long to reinterpret the local traditional dishes and by 2010 she was ready to share it with a broader audience by publishing Rawfully Good Living Flavours of Southeast Asia, a unique raw food cook book extolling the bene¿ts of vegetarian and vegan eating with raw, fresh and all natural ingredients. Long before the book, Diana had created a line of vegan and vegetarian food products which she proudly markets under the predictable brand name Rawfully Good Foods through the Allthingsnice Spice Company.

Being a self-avowed sambal addict, Diana dedicated her most recently published Chilitime cookbook to the hot chili pepper with an enticing recipe selection of spicy condiments that are guaranteed to perk up your taste buds. Early next year Diana will be publishing her new book, Following in Ganesha’s Footsteps, containing a treasure throve of vegan recipes and culinary insights into the cuisines of the Kathmandu Valley, Bangkok, Java and Bali.

Never one to sit still, Diana is already on to her next project and is introducing a new program of culinary and cultural adventures traveling around the region. One of these is a 14-day culinary indulgence taking participants on what Diana calls a chili feast, sampling the ¿ery cuisines of Nepal, Bhutan, Thailand and Bali. Complete with expert guidance by Diana herself who happened to have spent many years in these countries working in top hotels and restaurants.

In addition to the books, the tours, marketing her vegan product line and doing consulting work with restaurants, Diana will be offering “Cooking within Tent” to complement the dining experiences she began together with Dutch designer Anneke van Waesberghe who created the Escape Nomade brand. These pop-up dining ventures are organized in luxury colonial style tents in a natural setting above the Ayung river in Ubud and feature a luxuriant candles and crystal décor to complement Diana’s set menu of gourmet style slow food.

For Japanese-born chef Sayuri Tanaka it was the road to raw food that paved her career and took her meandering to India, Thailand, Bali, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and the USA in s e a r c h o f h e a l t h y, wholesome and natural foods. In her midtwenties she enrolled at the Lima Cooking School in Tokyo and studied macrobiotic cooking and plant based nutrition which nudged her to a raw food lifestyle. Her work experience in a vegan cafe in Tokyo established a ¿rm base in vegan cuisine and in 2006, when she started learning and practicing yoga, the link between healthy foods and yoga became all too obvious. In order to broaden her horizons and learn more about yoga and vegetarian cooking Sayuri started traveling to well-known yoga spots in India, Bali, Thailand, Australia and New Zealand. Along the way she became the chef at the Purple Valley Yoga Retreat Centre in Goa, India. “For 4 years”, Sayuri says, “I cooked and uncooked raw and living food for periods of 6 months per year at the India retreat.” In between the 6-month stints she started assisting raw food chefs in yoga retreats in Bali, worked in a raw food cafe in Australia, catered for yoga retreats in Europe and did some raw food teacher training in the United States. By then her career as a raw food chef was firmly established. “Life is experimental” says Sayuri “and so is cooking.”

Sayuri has been based in Bali since 2011 and in 2014 coestablished a raw food café & tonic bar called The Seeds of Life on Jalan Gautama in Ubud; she also took part in creating the café’s raw food chef training. Sayuri regularly teaches vegan/raw food workshops and conducts training in Bali and internationally. She organizes raw food and yoga retreats and caters various events. Her other activities include menu consulting and staff training for health food restaurants and cafes as a raw/vegan/ macrobiotic chef and teacher. Being a yoga practitioner herself, she likes to create events and retreats focusing on food and yoga. She is a ¿rm believer and promoter of a healthy, sustainable, high conscious lifestyle for all of us, the earth and the future. Says Sayuri, “My passion is to share, teach and remind us all that we all are the fountain of potential. You can do and be anything you want. Food is my tool to help you discover that.“ Sayuri’s next raw food and yoga retreat is the Bali Bliss Retreat, scheduled from 29 May to 4 June 2016 at the Azadi retreat in Ubud, followed by a 2 week extensive training and certi¿cation course for raw food chefs from 12 to 25 June. She has also published two cookbooks, Sayuri’s Raw Food Café, and Sayuri’s Food for Yogis and Everyone, both available on Amazon. You can also download these books and a host of free mini recipe books from her website www.yummtumm.com. There is even a recipe book for chocolate lovers and pizza enthusiasts. Now, isn’t that a good reason to try your hand at vegan cuisine?

Restaurant Review

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

The Cosmic Invasion!

First there was one, then there were two, and soon there will be three!

Cosmic Diner is styled on a modern funky version of the trusty old American ‘diner’. You can eat at the bar, at a table, in a booth or on the outside smoking terrace.

Service begins every day with a range of breakfasts, all with 2 eggs as the base. They can be ‘sunny side up’, as the Americans say [to the rest of the world that is just a normal fried egg, the way it should be], scrambled or as an omelette stuffed with your choice of tomato, ham, cheese, mushroom or onion]. Breakfast can also be a Scrambled Egg Sandwich on toasted sourdough. All of these egg dishes come with crisp bacon [or a beef sausage if you prefer], roasted tomato and toast, and this is for only Rp.45,000++, quite amazing value! If 2 eggs are not enough, you can add an extra one for less than $1. A little more exotic is their Fancy Breakfast, scrambled eggs with cheese topped with smoked salmon.

However the most popular order at an American diner is always the humble hamburger, and that is also the case at Cosmic [even at the original site on Sunset Road with a branch of the Golden Arches almost next door!].

The basic beef burger contains 50gm, minced on the premises from imported Aussie beef, with lettuce, tomato and caramelized onions added. Most non-specialty burger places, and all of the fast food joints, buy outside processed patties, what a difference when they are freshly done, properly, on the premises!

But, as always, the most popular at Cosmic is the Cheeseburger, with melted cheddar cheese. The ‘East Coast’ sees crisp bacon added to the cheeseburger and the ‘West Coast’ a fried egg, sunny side up of course, to the cheese and bacon [pictured].

The Hawaiian is with pineapple and there is an Italian touch with mushrooms and melted mozzarella, or one with the patty crumbed with parsley and garlic, the sauce roasted sesame. For those who never know when they had enough there are double and even triple burgers.

Away from beef you can order Chicken [crumbed and crisp, very crunchy, with melted mozzarella] or Fish [cheddar cheese and tartar sauce] Burgers. All of these burgers are

also available as Mini Burgers called Cosmic Juniors.

For those who do not want a burger there are still many reasons to visit Cosmic. Pasta dishes include Spaghetti [Aglio e Olio, with meatballs, chicken and mushroom or Carbonara with ham and cheese], Penne [Carbonara, or with meatballs or chicken and mushroom], and Fettuccine [Carbonara, or smoked salmon]. Something different is Macaroni and Cheese [Parmesan and Cheddar], which can also have crispy bacon added.

If you want to eat more traditional western style you can start with a soup [Mushroom with garlic and thyme or Tomato with basil, onion, garlic and Parmesan rind] or salad [Caesar, Garden, Oriental or Nordic with smoked soy-glazed smoked salmon or the very good Crispy Chicken] followed by a choice of mains, served with Parmesan buttered rice, mashed potato or French fries. Chicken can be as a steak with cream mushroom or black pepper sauce or a good version of that old favourite, Parmigiana, crumbed and topped with tomato salsa and mozzarella. Beef comes with black pepper sauce as a steak or sliced in a creamy mushroom.

Fish & Chips is an English import, one that has become truly international, with sauce tartar of course. Then there are a few finger foods, all served with French Fries; Fish Fingers, Chicken Fingers, Steak Sandwich, all perfect for snacking whilst sipping. A most unusual snack is the Chicken Waffle Sandwich.

No American diner could exist without offering pancakes, at Cosmic they are all dessert options. Plain, drenched in icing sugar, syrup and whipped cream, or with strawberries, banana or chocolate chips. All are ordered as single, double or triple stacks, and can be with gelato added.

Many different coffee styles, teas, floats, milk shakes, gelatos, sorbets and refreshing fruit freezes but it is their signature cocktails that are all the rage; Frozen Margaritas and Daiquiris that are made with your choice of 12 different flavoured gelatos in the blender, very New York!

Cosmics are a fun place to drop into, just for a drink, a snack, a burger simple or exotic. The value is unrivalled with 99% of the menu under Rp.100,000, most of it much less. The 3rd Cosmic, at Sanur, is due to open on The ByPass [just south of Blanjong] by year end.

Reviews that appear in Bali Advertiser are based on actual visits to the establishments listed, without the knowledge of the restaurants, and are not paid for by the individual restaurants.

Bali continues to offer something for everyone at every level, the sign of its ‘coming of age’ for the restaurant scene! What a change from 20 years ago. Back then it was difficult to even get an egg cooked properly.

Opinions expressed here are those of Gerry Williams and not necessarily those of Bali Advertiser. Gerry Williams attempts to write from a ‘typical’ diner’s perspective and, whilst quality of food is the most important criteria overall, value for money is the real measuring stick.

Update Sanak Kitchen is in the hills below Munduk, in northern Bali. After passing through Bedugul, and climbing the mountain you drive along the ridge to Munduk. Downhill towards Seririt, the way to Sanak is well sign-posted. At the village of Kayu Putih a 1km turnoff to the right takes you to Sanak. You have been transported to a peaceful haven. The restaurant area has been hand crafted from wood from Kalimantan. It adds to the ‘back to nature’ feel about the whole place as you gaze down the valley, across rice paddies and natural bush. The food does not disappoint, mainly organic and full of taste. The Lumpia Trio is three different shaped crisp parcels, each with its own dipping sauce [pictured], Vegetables [sweet and sour], Chicken [peanut sate sauce] and Prawn [hoisin]. The casings are thin and crisp, the ample serve of sauces quite intense, finger-licking good! Gulai Kambing is on most Indonesian menus, but of varying quality. Here it is very good. A ceramic bowl contains the ambrosial broth of lemongrass, Kaffir lime, galangal, ginger, white turmeric, clove, coriander, cumin, candle nut, nutmeg, cinnamon and garlic. The lamb pieces have been cooked in this broth and then, just prior to serving, coconut milk is added. A day trip or a weekend, very worth the trip!

Doji serves the cuisine of Kyoto, Japan. Very different from the food served at other Japanese restaurants in Bali and elsewhere around the world. It is located on Jl. Subak Sari in Canggu, not far from the Canggu Club, and is a striking two level restaurant, the upstairs section offering great Bali veiws. A cold Soba noodle dish called Bukkake consists of chicken, deepfried tofu, mushroom, grated radish, spring onion and Shiso “perilla” [leaves tasting of anise]. The Japanese Plate consists of fish, first marinated in miso [fermented soy beans] then grilled, served with Deep fried Tofu and vegetables and cold chawanmushi [steamed egg custard]. Doji Curry is chicken and vegetable pieces of eggplant, mushroom, potato and carrot in a very mild curry. Very unusual, and a departure from Indonesia’s Nasi Goreng, is this version of Fried Rice. Simply called Dry Curry the fried rice has been cooked, until dry, in a fragrant curry broth and served topped with vegetable chunks. Very western is their Bacon Sandwich, more Japanese are the Egg and Pork Cutlet sandwiches.

Star salad is their Renkon [lotus root] with cross slices of same combined with carrot, sweet potato and burdock [a thistle but here the taproots of young burdock are eaten] and an orange dressing. Perhaps the highlight here is their Baked Sweet Potato dessert, served with their ‘made on the premises’ cinnamon and clove ice cream.

Gangnam Is a Korean restaurant on Jln. Danau Poso, Sanur. Many Korean restaurants on The ByPass but this is the first one in central Sanur. Cool [air-conditioned[ and clean, in fact the place is quite immaculate it its Indonesian livery of red and white. The small menu offers Kimbap [steamed rice wrapped in dried seaweed], Teokbokki [soft rice and fish cake with sweet red chilli] and Bibimbap [warm rice dish]. The Nasi Goreng is Korean style with kim chee [chilli fermented cabbage]. A Korean version of Japan’s Ramen Noodles can be either sweet or spicy, take your pick. The main meal here and the best way for any newcomer to Korean food is to order their set menu; pork bulgogi [marinated slices, very spicy], served with a zucchini pancake, green veggies, soup and steamed rice.

Only for a minimum of two persons at a very reasonable Rp.75,000 each.

Crab Bar was Bali’s 1st crab specialty restaurant. It is located on Jn. Batu Belig, Kerobokan, one of those rarities for Bali, with ample secure parking. Crab Bar’s Hot Bag is one of their most popular combos for small groups so they have now introduced a Half Portion Hot Bag; containing 250gr mud crab, 100gr shrimps, 100Gr yabbies, 100gr clams, and corn on the cob. Meant for the sole diner it is still a monster meal for Rp.250,000++. One of the many surprises at Crab Bar are their amazing selection of unique sauces to accompany your seafood. They include a Bali sauce [yellowish-green in colour from its sweet basil base], only a chef from Sulawesi could come up with a Balinese sauce that no Balinese had ever seen before, but this one is so good I could eat it on toast in the mornings. Others include Chilli sauce, Bangka Curry sauce [from the island of that name, just off the coast of Sumatra, a delicate mild curry taste], Teriyaki Black Pepper sauce [quite sweet but with a slight bite], Garlic Butter sauce, and Smoked Cajun sauce. The sauces are so good I always order some Mantau [small Chinese bread scones] to break and dip in the sauces.

Warung Dandelion has them all talking in the Canguu area. It is sited in an old Joglo house on Jln. Batu Bolong. No it is not a trendy new bistro, rather it is a simple place that serves very basic local cuisine, very well and with fun. The menu consists of all those favourite local dishes; spring rolls, corn fritters [perkedel jagung], soft coconut curries and meats wrapped in banana leaf, slowly cooked so they remain moist and tender. Tourists think they are eating Balinese when in reality, as almost everywhere else in Bali, it is mostly general Indonesian. This place has an unusual and very welcome ambience missing not only in other warungs but. sadly, from so many up-market and expensive Bali restaurants.

This should not be surprising as their very charismatic owner, Yunus, has a pedigree that explains all. He ‘cut his teeth’ at Café Warisan 18 years ago at a time that the world first sat up and noticed that place, then his intro to American service levels, but still with that Bali smile, was at the original Hard Rock when it was in Jl. Legian and he was one of the few selected to make the move to its current location. The essential cruise ship experiences followed and he is now doing his own thing in Canggu, and doing it very well. Simple food that is tasty, cheap and served with a smile, what more could you ask for?

Hang Out @ Renon is what the owners hope their customers will do at this new Renon café/restaurant on Jln. Merdeka, just off Hayam Wuruk. With more than 20 café/coffee shops already along Hayam Waruk, the overflow to the side streets has started already.

You naturally expect this place to serve more of the same basic Indonesian dishes at so many other warungs in the area. WRONG! This one is actually attempting Thai cuisine, and makes a surprisingly good job at that! The dishes have an Indonesian makeover with literal translations of the original Thai name, but the tastes are fairly original. So everyone’s favourite Thai entrée Gai Haw Bai Toey becomes Ayam Pandan, as it actually is, with tender pieces of marinated chicken wrapped in a pandanus leaf, first steamed to cook then deep-fried to brown and serve hot. Nasi Krapao Ayam is minced chicken stir fried with chilli and served with rice, the famous breakfast dish of Krapao, but in Thailand they usually use pork rather than chicken. Many finger food dishes and quite a few vegetarian ones. Unfortunately only open for dinner although the rear glassed-in area would be great for lunch.

INTERNET FOR EVERYONE Two of the world’s biggest tech companies are both setting up programs that, ideally, will make internet accessible to anyone anywhere in the world with a mobile phone or device able access it, at low cost or for free. Experts estimate that about two-thirds of the world’s population (roughly 5 billion people) doesn’t have access to the Internet.

Google, Wikipedia and Facebook all launched previous programs: Google Free Zone, Wikipedia Free and Facebook Free. The idea behind these programs was that these social media giants would subsidize mobile data costs so that people could access their online products (Google’s search engine, Gmail, Facebook) for free. However, the Free programs generated controversy, and ran into considerable opposition from governments and citizen groups, because of, what critics called, its violation of ‘net neutrality.’ That is, because the tech giants online products were available free of charge or at low cost, people would use those services preferentially, and in doing so, were having their choices about what services to use, made for them by Facebook and Google.

Google has since set up Project Loon: a connected system of modi¿ed weather balloons that would circle the earth at high atmosphere and provide global Internet coverage.

Internet.org is a Facebook-led initiative with the goal of ‘making affordable Internet access available to the two-thirds of the world who are not yet connected and to bring the same opportunities to everyone that the connected third of the world has today, according to Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s CEO. PROJECT LOON: Project Loon is ‘a network of balloons traveling on the edge of space, designed to connect people in rural and remote areas, help ¿ll coverage gaps and bring people back online after disasters,’ according to Google’s Project Loon website.

The balloons will Àoat in the layer known as the stratosphere (about 18-25 kilometers above the Earth). This is much higher than the level at which airplanes Ày; it is also safely above the weather, so the balloons cannot be affected by storms and high winds.

The balloons’ altitudes are controlled remotely by adjusting the density and volume of gas in speci¿c balloons. As the balloon rises or sinks, it is then able to move from wind layer to wind layer, riding the wind, travelling in different directions, according to where coverage is needed.

Users can only access the balloon network by using a special antenna that would be attached to a local building.

Once their signal is sent to the balloon-network, it then travels from balloon to balloon, before reaching a ground-based station operated by a local Internet Service Provider, which then relays the signal onto the global Internet using their own equipment.

Google is establishing partnerships with telecommunications companies in low-internet-coverage areas so that people in those areas can access the ‘balloon network’ directly via local mobile service providers.

The idea behind providing an airborne internet system is to offer a lower-cost alternate so that telecommunication companies don’t have to lay expensive ¿ber optic cable underground to reach low-internet coverage areas; a cost that many of these companies cannot afford and will not invest in.

INTERNET.ORG: While Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg is credited with coming up with the initial idea, Internet.org is actually a partnership between Facebook and six other companies involved in telecommunications: Samsung, Ericsson, MediTek, Opera

Software, Nokia and Qualcomm. Facebook and its partners launched Internet.org in August of 2013.

The idea behind Internet, org, according to Zuckerberg, is to offer ‘a group of basic Internet services that would be free of charge to use: ‘a 911 for the Internet. These could be a social networking service like Facebook, a messaging service, maybe search and other things like weather. Providing a bundle of these free of charge to users will work like a gateway drug of sorts-users who may be able to afford data services and phones these days just don’t see the point of why they would pay for those data services. This would give them some context for why they are important, and that will lead them to paying for more services like this,’ said Zuckerberg.

Once people become used to accessing these services, this small taste of being online will ideally drive people to want to use more of the internet as they discover how much the internet can help them in their daily lives; with getting jobs, answering health questions, in education and communication.

Zuckerberg estimates that over half the people who use Internet.org’s free tools will go on to sign up for mobile data services and choose to pay for internet service through their local telecommunications carriers. Hence, the focus of the Internet.org program is to improve access and reduce costs for people who are within range of existing network services, which Zuckerberg estimates at over 80% of the word’s population.

Zuckerberg is famous for his statement that ‘connectivity is a human right’ and ¿rmly believes that his initiative can serve as a gateway to get people online.

Zuckerberg said, in a Facebook post: ‘Studies show that for every 10 people who gain access to the Internet, one person is lifted out of poverty. If we can connect the 4 billion people without Internet access, we can help raise hundreds of millions out of poverty.’ He believes that Internet access is vital for achieving the new Global Goal of reducing poverty and improving lives for millions of people. ‘By giving people access to the tools, knowledge and opportunities of the Internet, we can give a voice to the voiceless and power to the powerless. We also know that the Internet is a vital enabler of jobs, growth and opportunity,’ said Zuckerberg.

Zuckerberg believes that, unlike Google’s Project Loon, a sustainable way to bring Internet to the masses is to partner with telecommunication companies and use their existing networks, rather than creating another network.

Starting with the African nation of Zambia, in July, 2014, Internet.org’s model of free basic services in partnership with a local mobile carrier, has now been launched in 15 countries: Tanzania, Kenya, Colombia, Ghana, India, the Philippines, Guatemala, Indonesia, Bangladesh, Malawi, Pakistan, Senegal, Bolivia and, just a few months ago, South Africa.

Zuckerberg claims that over 1 billion people now have access to Internet.org.

Just days ago, Zuckerberg announced that Facebook has partnered with Eutelsat, Europe’s leading satellite agency, to develop and launch a new satellite called AMOS-6, which will provide internet coverage to large sections of sub-Saharan Africa through local telecommunications carriers. In the words of Zuckerberg himself, ‘Connectivity changes lives and communities. We’re going to keep working to connect the entire world - even if that means looking beyond our planet.’

Say What?

C/Ho/I-30 Sept 15

Question: About 6 weeks ago, after we’d been together for 4 months, my boyfriend suddenly broke things off. I asked him to give us another chance, and he agreed. We talked about what issues had arisen and about working on them.

Since then, however, life has become a bit more stressful.

He had to spend a lot of time extra time at work and then went back to his home country due to a death in the family.

This meant we saw each other only once or twice a week for a couple of hours, mostly in public places. He asked me to give him some space and to take things slowly; so I tried not to bother him apart from the times we saw each other.

Now, after the agreed upon period of my giving him space, he has returned from visiting his family and has suddenly broken it off with me again.

The reasons he gives vacillate from having “lost the spark” to our not having a deep enough “connection.” He says that he really enjoys my company, that he’s still attracted to me, and that we have a lot in common and want the same things from a relationship. I know that feelings sometimes fade, but I also think the circumstances of the past few weeks are a large factor in what happened between us.

I would like to continue to be friends and to work on getting closer and to ask him to keep an open mind in case the “spark” comes back. If it doesn’t, we’ll be better friends for it; if it does, that would be great. I don’t want to sound desperate or annoying, and I wonder what to say. Thanks for any advice you may be able to offer.

Dr. ZZ: When someone breaks up with you twice in two months, it is safe to imagine that breaking up is what he wants to do. What he told you about “spark” and “connection” was a nice way of saying he likes you, but not enough.

Indeed, there are tons of outside stressors and mitigating circumstances, but - ‘sorry if this sounds harsh - he doesn’t want to be in a relationship with you, and there’s nothing you can do to change that. It’s his subjective choice.

Staying “friends” with a confusing person you have feelings for is like setting a trap for yourself. You’re not friends; you’re into him. Obsessing on a way to make a friendship into more than it is makes for an awkward way to start a friendship.

If you’re meant to be friends down the road, it will happen spontaneously. You don’t have to prompt him or send him reminders. Please don’t waste your precious life pining and trying to figure this guy out. He told you he likes you, but not enough. Take his word for it.

Question: My girlfriend and I are in our early 20’s and have been traveling together for several months. Neither of us is experienced at relationships, and this is the longest either of us has been with someone. It’s been good so far, except for one thing: she feels smothered easily, is emotionally distant, and has trouble giving affection to a romantic partner. I’m an affectionate person, who feels insecure if someone acts aloof.

www.moessongallery.com

C/Ho/G-30 Sept. 15

I try to honor her need for space, but it’s difficult because she almost never reciprocates with affection. Whenever I try to bring it up, she feels cornered, and I end up apologizing without asking anything of her, or telling her that I’ll try to be less needy, that it’s not her fault, it’s mine.

I have low self-esteem and suffer from depression as it is, and it sucks when I need some support, and she isn’t there to offer any because she is afraid I will lean on her too often.

She also doesn’t confide in me. She’s an extremely private and closed-off person, who prefers to deal with her problems on her own. Though I try not to take it personally, it hurts.

I love her, and even though she has trouble expressing it, she has told me she loves me too. The fact that she’s still with me and hasn’t gone off on her own despite her commitment issues proves it. I’m the first person she’s ever cared enough about to stay with through conflicts.

C/Ns/G-8 July 15

Is it possible for us to find a happy balance between affection and space? How do I bring this up without scaring her or saying, “Never mind, don’t worry about it”?

Dr. ZZ: It’s easy when you haven’t had a lot of relationships to think that if you like the person and they like you, everything that’s a problem in the relationship is just an “except for this” moment that you should find a way to remedy. But, please take a minute to think about what you’re missing. If you consider the list of things you wish were different in the relationship, you’re apt to find that it’s a long list of 100% valid exceptions that you need from a partner and aren’t getting from this one.

You can try to get from where you are to where you want to be in your current relationship, but not all relationships -even those in which two people love each other - are right for the people involved. A healthy relationship doesn’t result in your apologizing for reasonable needs. This woman is not the only one out there whom you can love.

Even if breaking up now may be painful, it is likely to be less painful than a constant, ongoing struggle of negotiating for bits and pieces of support and affection.

A Blurb from the Kulture Kid!

By Vaughan Hatch

Do Warung have Opening Hours?

If you’ve got a fave cheap local warung nasi campur or something that you frequent, you may have noticed that you might turn up and they haven’t opened, they’ve closed early or they’re closed without notice: no prior warning, no scribbled note on the roller door, and I’m guessing no announcement on FB. Warung will not normally display their opening hours because they need the flexibility to open late if they can’t successfully coordinate a school-run with a husband who has drunk too much the night before; or shut early when they’ve miscalculated how much food they need to prepare for that day. The ‘morning’ warung (normally just sell nasi campur or nasi kuning/sela/bubur) are open from around 6 AM till the food runs out around 8 or 9 AM. The ‘day time’ ones open around 11 AM and close at 4 PM. The ‘evening’ ones open around 5 PM till around 10 PM. In most cases, the reason for the closure is something temporal. If they’re Hindus, they may have a ceremony. Balinese have so many ceremonies that involve not only their families and extended families, but also the banjar and the whole village. Weddings and tooth-filings are much more lavish and involved that they used to be, so there is additional preparation and deconstruction time to boot. It’s also becoming a lot trendier to do mass pilgrimages to other parts of Bali, Java or Lombok, which also involves travel times of sometimes many days.

If the warung owners are Muslim, it could be a Muslim holiday: watch out for Ramadan because they could be closed for a week or more if they have decided to ‘mudik’ (visit family outside of Bali for Ramadan).

If a warung has been closed for more than a few weeks, the owner has either been kicked out by the landlord, has a personal problem (sickness, divorce or teen pregnancy can close a busy warung before you can squeal, “Jangan saya dikasi harga toris ya Mba!”), or have been hunted down by the debt collectors for an unpaid shiny pink Scoopy that their teenage daughter just had to have to ride one kilometer to school.

bars in North Bridge serving the community with every kind of music under the sun, and providing a venue for Aussie bands to rock out. The city also boasts an arena stadium where larger acts can come and smash it. An example of this was two nights ago legendary ageing rockers ‘Kiss’, took to the stage and gave Perth a night to remember!

Bali like Perth has gone through a boom through revenue from tourism, however unlike the Aussie city has not capitalized Well we survived the blood moons, the asteroid strikes, and with providing live music venues. There are some big clubs everything else and now it’s time to look to the future, as I like Sky Garden and Akasaka club around, and this year I was said before drum and bass is a force to be reckoned with in very impressed with Soundrenaline festival put on at the the U.K and slowly but surely ‘the grime’ is seeping into Bali.

GWK cultural park in Jimbaran, but again we have nothing 2 weeks ago drum and bass was out and about in Bali and really big enough either a stage or arena to accommodate on Balangan Beach. major bands like Kiss and AC/DC. With a purpose built rig and my good friend Mitch MC on the In Bali it is clear that money rules and the real deal is not mic the event was one of Bali’s ¿rst drum and bass events who comes and plays, but what people pay to come see. with people all over the area coming down to the beach to Again I have to applaud the Soundrenaline festival for their skank to some of the ¿rst dirty beats Bali has ever seen. all access policy with a two day ticket for just Rp. 200.000 The event was put on by some drum and bass pro’s from but the sad truth is that other acts like Snoop Dog (2 years Jakarta and have said they will do and (would like to put on)

If this is the case then it may be over the Rp. 1.000.000 mark and as a result become very very soon when we will start to hear drum and bass played exclusive. Perth in comparison charges maybe 600.000 a all over the island of the gods. ticket for seeing live bands as good as Kiss!

Ok well that about wraps it up from the land down under, just time to plug the new Harimo band that have been making waves in Sanur by introducing tourists to Batak music and the incredible instruments and sounds of Sumatra. They are becoming so popular people are dumping their usual requests of Cold Chisel, and AC/DC, and have been instead drinking their Bintang to an entirely different sound. So if you are interested then go down to Linga Longa bar in Sanur and go check it out for yourself. I recommend Sunday evening as they do a Babi Guling roast Bali will (in my opinion) catch on and hopefully fast, as there for Rp. 70.000 so you can sit down and eat crackling while are many bands planning massive tours for next year and getting cracking Sumatran sounds in your ears. who really want to come to Bali, but don’t want their fans ripped off or have to play a smaller venue which will not do Ok well Music Pioneers that’s all from me from sunny Perth them justice musically or provide enough capacity to make in Aussieland until next issue put another shrimp on the the gig pro¿table.

GARDEN DOCTOR

by Dr. Kris

A Weed Free Lawn ‘Dear Dr. Kris, My front lawn is full of weeds, but I’d like to have grass.

Where do I start? I’m going the natural route, and don’t want to use chemicals. I’ve been working to manually remove weeds, but after doing so there are divots and some bare patches in the lawn where the weed root was.

Should I spread a few grass seeds in those areas, or just ignore and hope that eventually grass spreads over there rather than weeds popping back up? Oh, if you need a picture of the weeds / lawn, please let me know.

Thanks in advance, Jim, from Sanur’

to grow back and you end up doing 2 or 3 times the work that you need too. Many types of weeding tools are available at the hardware shop otherwise sometimes an old serrated knife or your bare hands will be enough. Keep a bucket, bag or cardboard box handy to toss the weed into immediately. This eliminates the chore of picking up later, and prevents seeds from falling to the ground if the weed is mature. For large areas of weed infested garden you may consider digging the area up and turning the soil with a shovel. Pulled weeds can be wrapped up in a garbage bag and left to bake in the hot sun for a few days, in a process called ‘solarisation’. The heat

Spend ten minutes daily, you will be surprised at how quickly the weeds will be gone. Then let the grass grow longer than usual and then cut it on a higher setting. It should crowd out or smother the remaining weeds. Longer grass helps prevent weeds in a couple of different ways. The taller growth shades the ground, keeping it cooler and retarding seed germination.

If weed seeds do eventually sprout, they will have less sunlight required for vigorous growth. Let your grass grow to at least 3 inches and never cut it below 1 inch in height.

Weeding Tips Make sure the soil is moist enough to allow the weeds to pull out easily, or for your weeding tool to penetrate the soil.

Weeding in a dry soil can sometimes be impossible, usually weeds break easily and you only pull the tops, the root is left

referred to as grasscycling. The most important thing you can do for your lawn is to feed it regularly, and grass clippings contain the same beneficial nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium nutrients as fertilizer. If your soil is poor and compacted, improve its quality with grass clippings which will supply fertiliser as they decompose, you should never throw them out. Collect them in the lawn mower catcher and add them to the compost. Otherwise mow the lawn without the catcher and let the clippings decompose and mulch back into the grass. Grass clippings are nutrient rich organic matter that will bene¿t your lawn and will save you time and energy.

Clippings are over 80% water so they decompose quickly and release nitrogen and other nutrients back into the lawn and soil naturally, improving lawn quality. Not only does it make caring for your lawn easier, but grasscycling can also reduce your mowing time by 50% because you don’t have to pick up afterwards. Leaving clippings on the lawn also slows water loss through evaporation and reduces the need for fertiliser.

A healthy, thick lawn will naturally be low in weeds, and a weedy lawn will need a consistent level of care to recover.

Many people have problems with their lawn simply because of poor quality soil from the original construction site. In these cases sprinkling compost across the topsoil will help. Aerating the soil with a fork will oxygenate the soil and help water penetrate further down, which encourages more vigorous growth.

You can successfully eliminate weeds in your lawn without using weed killer chemicals and poisons. Remove the largest most prominent weeds by hand, you will ¿nd this easier if the soil is wet. As a word of encouragement, pulling weeds by hand is the most effective approach for long term control since you can get them out by the root. Even if poisoned, many lawn weeds can grow back if the root is mature enough.

Limit yourself to watering once or twice a week during dry spells. If you limit water the roots will grow deeper and the whole lawn becomes much more drought tolerant. Proper watering means less frequent but deeper watering. The ideal time to water is from dawn until early morning. Watering at midday is a waste as moisture is lost to evaporation. Watering at night can encourage fungus, which appears as green, brown or gray patches on the grass.

Alternatives

will kill any seeds and living parts of the weeds so that they can be safely composted back into your garden without reproducing more weeds. Solarised weeds can also be poured into a bucket with water and left to brew for a few weeks before being poured onto the garden as a nutritious compost tea.

After you have removed the weeds it will be much easier to maintain. Any large gaps or bare patches in your turf should be sprinkled with compost, grass clippings and overseeded with new grass, otherwise transplant some turf from another area. Optimal soil nutrients will maximize grass growth, helping it to ¿ll in quicker. Gradually improve the soil by raking and forking a light layer of compost or similar ¿ne organic matter over the surface every few months. Top dressing goes well with overseeding to rehabilitate your lawn.

Grasscycling Recycling grass clipping back into the garden is sometimes

If you have gone to all the effort and your grass simply won’t grow then you need to consider your location. Low light or soil conditions can make it almost impossible to grow grass in some areas. If you’ve tried more than once to grow grass without success then you should try a different type more suited to your conditions or give up altogether and plant a shade loving landscape. If you have to do away with turf grass altogether but you still prefer a grassy outlook then you can add attractive ground cover plants that tolerate the same conditions grass can’t handle such as mondo grass or even low growing herbs that can tolerate foot traf¿c, such as creeping thyme or chamomile.

IT’S GOING TO GET A LOT DRIER BEFORE IT GETS A LOT DRIER People come and go a lot in Bali, so every year about this time I have a little rant about the island’s water issues. The last couple of months before the rainy season sets in are long and very dry; October is classically our driest month.

In the past few years we’d see some rains starting in mid-November and building up to the monsoon December through February. But the 2015/16 El Niño is expected to be the most extreme on record, and that means even less rain for Indonesia. By August sea temperatures had soared to more than 1.2 degrees Celsius above baseline, an indication of extreme weather in the wings. The El Niño now brewing in the Paci¿c Ocean is expected to end in January but may, in the long term, become more frequent.

Research published in Nature Climate Change last year predicted El Niño frequency could double because of climate change fuelled by the release of greenhouse gases. So we need to get our collective heads out of the sand and start strategising for the medium term.

It’s a mystery to me why more houses, especially on the arid Bukit, don’t have water catchment systems. A hard rain will ¿ll a big catchment tank in an hour. When that’s gone, the tank can be topped up with town or well water a little at a time. Then if things go really dry you can still wash the dishes, wash yourself and Àush the loo from time to time.

Hotels can reduce water consumption by installing low Àush toilets and low-Àow aerated shower heads, and directing grey water from showers and basins to water the garden.

Timing devices can be used on garden irrigation with moisture sensors to ensure water on demand. Most hotels have already implemented policies to wash sheets and towels less frequently.

“Wormholes and Water Bills” Einstein, now he was a pretty smart chappy, he could work out things that totally baffled everyone else. Did you know he was the only man who could manage to calculate how fast a running stool actually runs?

Brownian motion (the Motion of Small Particles Suspended in a Stationary Liquid) was as easy as steak and kidney pie and considerably improved the quality of the gravy but it was understanding the calculation of the water bill that was perhaps his least known but greatest achievement.

It was all to do with relativity and it took him a long time to understand the subtle relationships involved. After years of study he eventually came up with what has become the most well known equation in the world, the simple formula E=MC2 where E is the expense, M is the number of mop buckets in the house and C is, of course, the cup size of your wife’s bra.

It is dastardly simply. Water is, you see, charged according to how much you use and your ability to pay, the more mops you have in the house the more water you are likely to use and the larger the cup of your wife’s bra obviously the better fed and more wealthy you are.

With this simple formula people could finally work out their water bills and Einstein became famous for his mathematical skills.

Once he had worked out the water bill everything else was fairly straightforward and he found that the same relationships applied to many things in life such as in the Electrodynamics of Moving Bodies which was found to be very useful for mortuary workers. While he was searching in his garden for his water meter he developed his theory on ‘Wormholes’ and, while arguing with his neighbour Fred Entwurf about where the meter actually was, he developed his ‘Hole Argument and Entwurf Theory’.

the property, so take your torch and check your electricity meter, the categories are: 450, 900, 900 to 2200 and over 2200 watts.

In our example bill GoL is D3-4 which is a domestic rate for a house with a road 7 to 10 metres wide and with a PLN connection of more than 2,200 watts. If you look up the schedule you will find that the first 10 M3 ( M3 means cubic metres) of water costs Rp2,410 per M3, the next 10 M3 costs 2,950 per M3 and anything over that costs Rp4,730 per M3.

Ok so we now know our tariff so go back to the bill. Next we come to the meter listing starting with the meter readings of 7,226 M3 for the previous month and 7,341 M3 for this month - a consumption (Pemakaian) of 115 M3 used in the month (that’s a lot of water).

Although we act on the best advice, yet, so uncertain is the future, the results are often contrary.

Only a great actor finds the difficulties of the actor’s art infinite.

First we have to pay an “abonemen” - a subscription or fixed cost which in Denpasar is the equivalent of the first 10 or 20 M3 (depending on the tariff), you have to pay this whether you use it or not. On Tariff D3-4 this is 10 M3 @ Rp2,410 = Rp24,100.

Next we have the second pricing tier of water which on D3-4 is more than 10 and up to 20 M3 at a cost of Rp2,940 per M3.

Finally we have to pay for anything over that which on D3-4 is anything more than 20 M3 at a cost of Rp4,730 per M3.

This gives us a total cost of Rp 502,850 for the water. We now add on a charge of Rp7,500 for maintaining the water meter (Biaya Pemeliharaan Meter) and a stamp duty (meterai) of Rp6,000.

Things have moved on a bit since Eistein’s work so let us have a look at your water bill but before we get started you need to find a comfortable chair, make sure you have been to the toilet and get yourself a crate of beer - you might be here for a while. You will also need a torch and a tape measure and probably a few panadol.

If we don’t pay on time we have to pay penalties (Denda). If we are a month late in payment we are charged a penalty (Denda I) of Rp10,000, if 2 months overdue (Denda II) another Rp15,000, if 3 months overdue (Denda III) an additional Rp100,000. Once you go over 3 months the water company will start the process of cutting you off. In our example the customer has been naughty and is 3 months late so has penalties of 10,000 + 15,000 + 100,000 = Rp 125,000.

Here is an example of a Denpasar City water bill translated into English:

We now add the length in inches of your mother in law’s pet dog and finally take away the number you first thought of.

This gives us a final total bill of Rp 641,350.

C/Bm/I-08 July 15

The regency of Badung is somewhat simpler than Denpasar.

The initial fixed cost is determined by the size of the PDAM pipe entering your property. The different categories of customer are generally the same and Badung also charge different prices per M3. Also in Badung water prices are not related to the size of your electricity supply.

In Badung the above example customer would be on a D3 tariff, if they have a PDAM supply pipe 1inch diameter they will pay a fixed cost of Rp26,100 then Rp3,114 for the first 10 M3, Rp3,993 for the next 10 M3 and Rp 6,141 for the 95 M3 above that. Badung sell you the water meter in the first place for Rp1,500,000 so they do not charge the Rp7,500 meter maintenance cost. They do charge the standard stamp duty of Rp6,000 and they charge penalties for late payment of Rp5,000 for the first month, Rp10,000 for the second month and Rp100,000 above that. This would give a total comparative bill in Badung of Rp801,535.

The header of the bill gives the company details of the water supplier, the Denpasar City Regional Drinking Water Company (incidentally PDAM stands for Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum) Under the header we have the details of the customer; the area, billing month, name, address area and the bill number.

On the next line is probably the most important piece of information - the GoL, which is not short for Gollum, it stands for ‘golongan’ or classification which determines the tariff you are on and the amount you will be charged for water.

The tariffs and prices are all laid out in your PDAM company’s schedule of rates which I couldn’t print here - it is simply far too long. You can find and download the 2015 schedules for Denpasar PDAM at www.mrfixitbali.com/water-charges/ Denpasar-water-rates-2014.pdf and for Badung at www. mrfixitbali.com/water-charges/Badung-water-rates-2014.pdf Otherwise you can obtain the latest schedule of rates from your local PDAM office.

The schedule may seem a little complicated but don’t panic, we’ll take it a step at a time. First our tariff is based on the type of customer with categories for Social, Domestic, Commercial, Government and Industrial consumers.

Within the Domestic and Commercial categories we are further categorised according to the width of our front street.

So take your tape measure, go outside and measure the width of the street in front of your property including the gots (drainage channels), goats and grass verges. There are 4 road size ranges:- less than 3.99 metres, 4 to 6.99 metres, 7 to 10 metres and over 10 metres.

Next, within most categories we are categorised yet again according to how much electrical power we have connected to

But now we come to an area of concern. If you are in Denpasar and your house is designated a ‘villa’ with a private pool you will not be on a domestic tariff you will be put onto an Industrial tariff F1-4. If you are in Badung and your house is classified as a villa in the IMB (building permit) you will also probably be on an Industrial tariff F1.

This will dramatically increase your water bills and our example Denpasar bill under F1-4 would become Rp1,668,600 and in Badung under F1 would become Rp1,604,770. The concept of ‘wounded bulls’ suddenly springs to mind.

So how do we define a villa? No doubt that our colleagues in that ever so sophisticated real estate industry would state with confidence that if you have pool your house is a villa. Back in ancient times the ancient Brits lived in hovels but then the Romans came along and they lived in villas. It is a well known fact that the Romans liked their baths but, owing to a noticeable dearth of degrees in Britain, I am not quite sure if they would have had swimming pools in their back gardens.

Which leads us to ask if an Ancient Brit built a swimming pool in his back garden would his hovel become a villa? The mind boggles, it would be cold enough to freeze the bollards off a brass gibbon to say nothing of all those blue stains in the water. It all sounds like a shipment of bovine excretia to me.

There again our linguistically creative real estate friends would, no doubt, successfully market such as dwelling as a ‘Hovella’.

There is an enormous amount of healing potential available and particularly through relationships.

The Venusians or feminine interests are practical and grounded and readying to meet up with their masculine counterpart at the beginning of November when Mars joins Venus in Virgo. Before then they will both join with Jupiter in Virgo and oppose Chiron in Pisces. The Sun will move into Scorpio just before the Full Moon at the end of the month and the atmosphere will continue to be cathartic particularly as Pluto the ruler of Scorpio continues to make a harmonious aspect to these Virgo planets and also the Chiron in Pisces. We are in for healing old relationship wounds and forgiving those past painful experiences. This is a time for compassionate understanding, cleansing, purifying and ridding ourselves of toxic thoughts, emotions, build-up and habits. Some friendships, partnerships and/or unhealthy relationships may come to an end at this time as people commit to their healing process and self-love. Even though our Uranus/Pluto square has finished in exactitude these two will remain in a very close orb, as close as 1 degree until April 2016 and then wider but influential until 2017. The radical awakening process continues and obvious within the micro and macrocosms, the personal and the collective.

You may experience a stronger than normal urge to be of assistance to others this fortnight. There’s also a lot of healing potential within your work place or through the contacts you make with others every day. This will help to boost your standing in the world and elevate the thoughts you have about yourself in relation to your career or vocational preferences. The Sun and Moon are helping with your material acquisitions and your ability to share them with others. Your personal transformation is deeply entrenched in intimacy and it is through this, paradoxically that you find out more about yourself and how to express this self to others.

Quietly chipping away at those things hidden in the deepest recesses of your subconscious eventually brings the healing of old pains. You may also be working literally under wraps for the time being on a project while you do your duty in the outer world. This month is about money, yours and other peoples and what best to do with it and how to get it. There are deep family issues still in play and going through their own awakening journey. Perhaps even your concept of home and family is transforming right before your very eyes as sudden insights enlighten you to a different view. Stand up for what you believe.

The Sun is about to enter your relationship house and the full moon is in your sign at the end of the fortnight. It’s the see-saw effect which brings the need for both alone time and deep intimacy with a significant other and your one-on-one relationships. You have a strong love at this time to be of service to others, friendships, partners and community will all benefit from your generosity. Any involvement you may have with a higher learning facility or foreign connections will continue to transform your world for the better and inspire new and interesting insights. Remember to find those places and people who support and encourage you.

This is really the time for you to speak up and to let your voice be heard on the radical issues at hand. Your work includes this and so much more inventiveness than ever before. With the Sun entering your sign and the Moon your polar opposite, this fortnight brings a balancing act between alone time and the sensuality of being with another. You may find yourself more community oriented because of the children in your life and this in itself brings healing potentials. Whether this is because of your work or simply as a humanitarian gesture it will bring a sense of fulfilment and peace your way.

Home and family is the setting for your relationship intensive now and it will reflect back to you through your work. It may even inspire some of you to channel healing for others in the same way, as you nurture them through your intuition and empathy. This will be a meditative Full Moon for you while the Sun draws you more deeply into your own personal healing work. You are a key player and activator within your community and support the transformation that is required to move forward as a collective and an individual both, at this time.

Inspiration abounds within the group or friendship setting as you harness its energy.

Jupiter joins Mars and Venus and brings a boost to your vocational aspirations as the healing runs deeply through the roots of your very existence. Family matters also propel you into the affairs of the heart bringing their own blend of service/work. This coming month offers a little respite from the external world as you dive deeply into the sanctuary of your inner self. The Full Moon promotes your healing with grounding practices and hands on modalities. You are still in the process of releasing on the material plane of existence as well and through this your new identity emerges. Harnessing the power available to you for transformation is a radical act.

You have the possibility of meeting a new romantic partner this Full Moon, through group or friendship gatherings. I’d have to say though that you are no pushover when it comes to being swept off your feet and this would probably be a slightly more intense encounter anyhow.

There’s a never ending supply of communication going on within your business and personal relating which in itself brings the opening for healing through a higher perspective.

There’s movement both local and long distance and probably work oriented on the cards and sudden surprises on your life’s path opening up again. You are one who is significantly affected by current transformational energies.

You will remember the steps by now of this Uranus/Pluto dance and these next few months promise to bring more of the same instability and unpredicted circumstances.

Community and friendships figure largely over the next month and the Full Moon at the end of this fortnight brings attention to you. Perhaps you are undertaking a study or philosophic journey that will help you to understand things on the mundane level more readily.

This will bring its own brand of healing and understanding that allows healing to take place to you. The words that you use during this time are very important as they will act as a catalyst to stimulate change.

The focus is on home as the Sun slips into Scorpio and the Full Moon brings stability to your career. Healing runs deeply for you and is an uncomfortable emotional affair. At some point we all get to face our inner darkness and bring the light of day to old pain. This healing brings a restructuring to your belief systems and what you hold dear within relationships and also realising that these partnerships take work, discernment and some level of committed action. There are still some foreign influences or simply the desire to travel, which brings its own set of challenges. Any health issues you may have are deep seated and yet easily transformed.

The attention is about to shift to your career and the Taurus Full Moon brings some home time to adjust to the new focus. Your dedication is apparent at the moment as you apply yourself to the work that needs to be done. Your past actions are up for review as are your personal beliefs and yet this is nothing new. So much of your growth and transformation goes unnoticed on the outside and yet in truth you feel it very deeply. By the time you’ve digested and integrated change you are ready to talk about it with others and inspire them towards their own changes and personal journeying.

There’s quite the line up in your sign and it brings a potent mix of love, intimacy, growth and transformation. A lot of attention is on yourself at this time and focusing on those things that will bring you the greatest rewards, both financially and in your career/vocation. It’s time to bring the Pisces blend of healing through compassion and forgiveness to yourself and the significant others in your life. Romantic interests may suddenly depart and propel you into an unplanned emotional catharsis. There’s nothing quite like a romance to be both suddenly on and suddenly off. If you find yourself in this position, take extra good care of you.

Doing the work in relationship isn’t always easy and often it is confronting to your own identity. Take the time to retreat from others whenever necessary and come back to center before you offer more of yourself and your services. Your vulnerability is your strength, although it leaves you sensitive to your environment, so make sure it supports you rather than drains your energy. The Full Moon will offer you some time to calm your mind and get your thinking straight about your next journey. Transformation continues in your ever expanding group of friends and community and there is a lot more yet for you to release along the way.

PARADISE...

IN SICKNESS & IN HEALTH

By Kim A. Patra SRN/RM.

BREAST CANCER Approximately 12 percent of women will develop some kind of breast cancer in their lifetime. That means that out of 8 women that you know, one of them could develop breast cancer. This month that “1 in 8” was someone I knew.

Kim Sealy was a client and a friend. Perhaps one would expect that someone who knew that their days where numbered and their disease terminal would be somewhat down or depressed at our meetings, but not Kim. “Well none of us are getting put of here alive so may was well enjoy the ride eh?” She would say.

She laughed, smiled, danced, swam and continued with her passion to rescue animals for as long as she physically could.

I will be forever inspired by her attitude to life and death.

Kim Sealy 26th July 1957 - 4th October 2015 Rest Peacefully Kim…..Your battle is over, and your soul is now free.

BREAST CANCER

two breast cancer susceptibility genes-BRCA1 and BRCA2.

Women who have inherited mutations in these genes face a much higher risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer compared with the general population. You may be a candidate for BRCA gene testing - if you have a personal or family history of breast cancer diagnosed at a young age (premenopausal), breast cancer affecting both breasts (bilateral breast cancer), or both breast and ovarian cancers, a male relative with breast cancer, a relative with a known BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation, Ashkenazi (Eastern European) Jewish ancestry, with a close relative who has breast or ovarian cancer. Naturally the test cannot be done in Bali. According to the latest info I have from Singapore the genetic (blood test) test package for BRCA is approximately S$321.

4. How do you check your breasts correctly?

Most breast irregularities are detected by women themselves.

(Go to www.nbocc.org.au for complete self breast exam info). And now there’s an App! Both Apple and Android have excellent apps on Self Breast Examination (SBE).

The best time to examine your breasts is just after your period when hormonal lumps are at their lowest. Getting to know what’s normal for you will help you to detect any new or unusual breast changes. It’s never too early to start being breast aware and it’s important to keep up the habit, even if you’re having regular mammograms.

The facts • The number of people being diagnosed with breast cancer is increasing (almost doubled in the past 20 years), but the good news is survival rates are improving.

This is probably because of more targeted treatments, earlier detection and better breast awareness.

• Breast cancer also affects men, but it’s rare.

• Breast cancer is not one single disease there are several types of breast cancer.

• Not all breast cancers show as a lump, and not all breast lumps are breast cancer.

• Less than 10% of breast cancer runs in families, so having someone in your family with breast cancer doesn’t necessarily mean your own risk is increased.

5. What sort of changes should you look out for?

So here are 5 things you need to know, or you need to pass on to a woman that you care about.

What can women do to reduce the risk of developing breast cancer?

1. Know your risk factors for breast cancer

Lifestyle changes can reduce the risk of the disease include exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy body weight and moderating alcohol intake. Other factors known to decrease the risk of breast cancer are having children earlier in life - before the age of 30 - and breastfeeding for 12 months or longer.

Getting older and having a strong family history are the most common risk factors. Breast cancer is rare in women under 25 years, the incidence being highest (80%) in the 45 -55 year age group. Women whose mothers or sisters have suffered from breast cancer are at in increased risk.

Risk is increased in women who have previously suffered from cancer of the breast, ovaries, or womb. The risk is increased by factors increasing the number of menstrual cycles, i.e. menstruating at an early age and menopause over 50 years of age, never having children and not breast-feeding.

2. Should women check their breasts and how often?

It is important for women of all ages to get to know the normal look and feel of their breasts as part of everyday activities, such as showering, dressing, putting on body lotion or simply looking in the mirror.

Regular mammograms are not recommended for women under the age of 40 because they are not effective in detecting breast cancer early in younger women. This is because younger women’s breast tissue is dense, making it dif¿cult to detect early signs of breast cancer. As a woman grows older and her breast tissue becomes less dense, it becomes more transparent on a mammogram and it’s easier to detect early signs of cancer.

3. Should you test for the breast cancer gene The BRCA gene test is a blood test that uses DNA analysis to identify harmful changes (mutations) in either one of the

• A new lump or lumpiness, especially if it’s only in one breast.

• A change in the size or shape of the breast.

• A change to the nipple, such as crusting, ulcer, redness or inversion.

• A nipple discharge that occurs with squeezing.

• A change in the skin of the breast such as redness or dimpling.

• An unusual pain that doesn’t go away.

As Sheep to the Shearing Shed…

Pharmaceutical Clipping - Brain & Prostate Update One of history’s less celebrated and unpalatable truths is that we live in hostage societies where, to varying degrees, we are sheep to be shorn by our governing élites. Our labour and endeavour, such wealth as we can amass, are taxed unequally from the many to maintain the few. That is to say, the truly rich and those that serve them. It has ever been thus. Indeed, to an extent, it cannot be otherwise. The only variable being how generous our masters are in the crumbs they allow to drop from the top table.

Anyone who has lived in a society with the single payer system can see it’s insane. Rational societies, including capitalist ones, understand it owes its citizens a bare minimum in terms of housing, education and health; that a society should not allow routine medical problems to destroy and bankrupt people simply to enrich others. I hope I overstate, but best bring on Messrs Sanders and Corbyn as correctives now, than end up with the likes of Hitler or Stalin down the pike.

Every 150 years or so the disparities of wealth become so gross there’s a social cataclysm. That’s bad news, lots of people die. Old orders are swept away, only to reassert themselves in different guise in the decades that follow. Witness the English, French and Russian revolutions of 1648, 1789 and 1917 respectively; the European civil wars of 191418 and 1939-45 and the pattern is all too clear.

Brain & Prostate The last two pieces I wrote on cognition and the problems of how to alleviate symptoms of an enlarged prostate (BA issues: Sept 16 & Oct 7) obviously hit a certain spot as I got much more mail than usual.

STRETCH MARK Stretch marks or or striae distensae, as they are called in dermatology, are a form of scarring on the skin with an off-color hue. They are caused by tearing of the dermis, which over time may diminish, but will not disappear completely.

Stretch marks are often the result of the rapid stretching of the skin associated with rapid growth or rapid weight changes. Stretch marks in most cases may also be inÀuenced by hormonal changes associated with puberty, pregnancy, bodybuilding, hormone replacement therapy, etc. Stretch marks appear as linear streaks on the skin that has been overstretched, and they run perpendicular to maximum lines of tension in the skin. They begin as Àat red lines, and over time they appear as slightly depressed white streaks. They tend to be present near the armpits, on the thighs, abdomen, chest, and groin. Their appearance is similar to changes seen in the surface of rubber balloons that have been overinÀated. Since stretch marks are quite common, most people are familiar with their appearance. They are identi¿able on visual inspection by patients and doctors.

Different Types of Stretch Marks Striae atrophica This form of stretch marks are also common and are due to the wasting away of certain components of the skin.

Skin is designed to be very Àexible and it owes it elasticity to a protein called elastin. If this is degraded in the skin for various reasons, when the skin is stretched it cannot bounce back to its original position and this can lead to tears in the skin. Essentially these tears are the stretch marks, which will appear red at first but slowly fade over time.

Striae atrophica are usually caused by rapid weight gain or loss or corticosteroid treatment.

Striae distensae Stretch marks commonly form during puberty because the body experiences rapid growth spurts and weight Àuctuations. These are called striae distensae and they form linear lines in the common areas of the body such as the thighs, buttocks, abdomen and back. This form of stretch mark is also common amongst pregnant women.

Striae gravidarum Striae gravidarum are the type of stretch marks that are speci¿c to pregnancy. They are exactly the same as normal striae but their sole cause is pregnancy and thus they are called gravidarum. They appear on the buttocks, thighs, abdomen and sometimes the breasts. Around 90% of pregnant women experience striae gravidarum and they are more likely to occur in the third trimester because the hormones released at this stage of pregnancy affect the stability of the skin and make it more likely to tear.

Vergetures Essentially vergetures are the same as striae except they have a speci¿c pattern in which they occur. They tend to appear in long lines that resemble the lashings of a whip and hence are called vergetures. They are the product of pregnancy and puberty and many males tend to notice these stretch marks upon their backs. Vergetures are a deep red but will eventually fade to white like most stretch marks.

Other forms of stretch marks Stretch marks caused by certain medical conditions or treatments are generally classi¿ed as Striae. They do not have a speci¿c class but are regarded as normal stretch marks that do not have a distinct pattern. The causes of these stretch marks vary from steroid therapy to Cushing’s syndrome.

There are some things you can do to prevent stretch marks, as well as reducing the appearance of both new and old ones.

1. Use a moisturizer. A study comparing herbal moisturizers found that people who lotioned-up daily showed signi¿ cant improvement in skin appearance and elasticity.

Think of it this way: if your skin has a lot of stretching to do, it’s less likely to tear and create stretch marks if it’s hydrated.

Seminyak. [122] To grow older is a new venture in itself.

2. Use Retin-A. A study from the University of Michigan suggests that people who use Retin-A (or a retinoic acid cream) on new stretch marks saw huge improvements.

Retin-A is thought to boost collagen production, helping skin stretch out and avoid tears.

3. Use Lextrin. Lextrin is an FDA registered stretch mark cream that contains high potency natural essential oils and vitamins that help treat and reduce the appearance of stretch marks. Its active ingredients are hyarolunic acid, thuja occidentalis and centella asiatica which have been proven to reduce the appearance of stretch marks in as little as 2 weeks. Treatment can take up to 3 months to complete. Note that you should not use any products containing thuja occidentalis if you are pregnant or nursing. It can potentially cause birth defects in humans.

4. Try Vitamin E oil. Vitamin E oil is often said to be the miracle cure for stretch marks, though one study shows that it’s most effective on women who have already been pregnant before, and has not been effective in general use. Try mixing your Vitamin E oil with a carrier lotion, such as a regular unscented moisturizer, for better coverage.

5. Use glycolic acid. Glycolic acid used on stretch marks can increase collagen production, as making your skin more elastic overall. As an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA), it’s in the same family of compounds often used in chemical skin peels. Glycolic acid is safe to put on your skin during pregnancy. Take extra care to keep skin that you’re treating with glycolic acid out of the sun.

You may also try several natural ways to reduce the appearance of stretch marks.

1. Aloe Vera Aloe vera is effective in the treatment of many skin problems. Its healing and soothing properties can be used to get rid of stretch marks. There are a couple of ways to apply it. You can directly rub aloe vera gel on the affected skin area, leave it on for 15 minutes and then rinse the skin with lukewarm water. Another option is to make a mixture with one-fourth cup of aloe vera gel, oil from 10 vitamin E capsules and oil from ¿ve vitamin A capsules. Rub this mixture onto the skin until fully absorbed. Repeat this process daily.

2. Egg Whites Eggs are a rich source of protein. For stretch marks, you want to use only the egg whites, which contain amino acids and proteins. Whip the whites of two eggs gently with a fork.

Clean the affected skin area with water and then apply a thick layer of egg whites with a makeup brush. Allow the egg whites to dry completely and then rinse the area with cold water. Finally apply some olive oil on the skin to keep it moisturized. Repeat the process daily for at least two weeks and watch for positive results.

C/He/I-13 May 15

3. Lemon Juice Another simple way to lessen stretch marks is to use lemon juice. Lemon juice is naturally acidic which helps heal and reduce stretch marks, acne, and other scars. Rub fresh lemon juice gently onto the stretch marks using circular motions. Allow the lemon juice to soak into your skin for at least 10 minutes before rinsing it off with warm water. Another option is to mix equal quantities of cucumber juice and lemon juice and apply the mixture on the stretch marks.

Siapa... ?

by Bill Dalton

Ye Lu: Chinese Language Instructor Ye Lu was born and brought up in Zhejiang, a province in eastern China. When she was a teenager, she moved to Shanghai where she lived and worked until she was in her 20s.

From 2004 to 2009, Ye Lu attended the University of Shanghai, Faculty of Science and Technology, majoring in publishing and communication. In her professional life, Ye Lu has held jobs in the publishing industry, as an interpreter in a big oil company and in management positions at various NGOs. Presently she works as a consultant and Chinese language teacher at the Mandarin Centre in Renon, which teaches Chinese culture and language to Chinese-Indonesian children and to Bali’s hospitality industry serving Chinese tourists.

What was your childhood like?

I had a happy childhood, particularly when you compare it to my father’s who grew up in the 1960s during the Cultural Revolution. During the years 1960 to 1966, the people of China went through a period of great pain and suffering. I was born in 1980 when the policy of ‘Coastline Cities Opening the Door to the World” was being implemented, so I experienced the dramatic and sudden urbanization from the 1980 through the 1990s when Western lifestyles were adopted and Western goods flooded into China.

Have you done much international travel?

From 2006 to 2008, I was a high school exchange student at Anhalt University of Applied Sciences in Köthen, Germany, graduating with a certificate in the German language. At the time, I had planned to get a job in a German company. At the time, the German community was one of the largest in Shanghai because a Volkswagen plant is located there. In 2014, I attained an advanced teaching degree that qualifies me to teach Chinese anywhere in the world.

What inspired you to set up the Bali Mandarin Center?

In the beginning when I moved to Bali, people often asked me “Where are you from?’ I answered, “I am from China.”

Then they would say, “Originally from China?” I became very confused about the meaning of ‘original.‘ There is only one China and IT IS ORIGINAL! Later I understood. What they were asking was whether I was a Chinese Indonesian.

Most of my Chinese Indonesian friends considered themselves Chinese, but they couldn’t speak Mandarin.

Eventually I realized that there was a huge market for Chinese-Indonesians who want to learn to speak Chinese.

This was the inspiration behind the establishment of the center.

What is the mission of the center?

We provide instruction to children on how to read, write and speak Mandarin. We also offer three-month courses to adults that are customized so that the instruction gives

What kinds of courses and seminars does the center offer?

Costing Rp300,000-Rp400,000 per month, we offer courses for all age groups from kindergarten (vocabulary), primary grades/teenage (writing and vocabulary) all the way up to classes for adults. I even have a couple of old Chinese grandparents who regret that they didn’t have a chance to learn Chinese in their youth. So far we have around 100 primary and high school students enrolled, not including students we instruct on the premises of hotels and tour companies.

C/BT/I-18 March 15

Have you had much success in teaching young Chinese-Indonesian children to speak fluent Chinese?

Yes! Some of Chinese–Indonesian students have learned to speak Chinese after learning for just a few months and teenage boys very quickly found part-time work as Mandarin-speaking tour guides. The children have been hearing Mandarin words at home, so after only few months of classes many words become reconnected in their minds.

It’s always funny to see the Chinese Indonesian children communicate in Mandarin with their grandparents who are able to speak only a few words of Mandarin due to the anti-communist purge in 1965 and the ban against learning Mandarin put in force by the Suharto regime. Both the grandparents and the children are able to communicate, but using very basic Mandarin and a lot of body language!

Do classes consist of mostly boys or girls?

Surprisingly, the genders are about equal in number. When the school first opened, I thought girls were going to be more interested in learning Mandarin than the boys. But as it turned out, the ratio is even. When I ask boys why they want to learn Chinese, they often answer, “My dad wants me to learn so I can help in the family business” or “My mom told me that my ancestors are from China, so I have to speak Chinese ……”

NC/BT/P-14 Oct. 15

Any unique problems teaching hotel, cruise ship and tour company staff Mandarin?

The most difficult is the pronunciation of the Pinyin flat/ rising/curving/down tones. Some of our students come back to us after few classes, saying that their mainland Chinese guests don’t understand them. Take the word ni hao, which means Hello. Ni and hao both have the curving tone ‘v’ tone, not the flat or rising tone. A different tone is a totally different word with a totally different meaning! But actually if you only learn to speak and not write Chinese, it doesn’t take long to speak the basic language because Pinyin is similar to the vowels a, e, i, o and u in the English alphabet.

What is the ratio between Chinese Indonesian students and are non-Chinese Indonesian students?

Chinese Indonesian students make up of 80% of our students at the moment, but more and more non-Chinese Indonesian and long term expats’ children in Bali are beginning to realize the importance of Mandarin in Southeast Asia and the world.

C/BT/G-16 Sept. 15

Does the Bali Mandarin Center also teach, language or culture of other Asian cultures?

Learning the culture and learning the language are always taught hand in hand. When we teach, we usually expand on a topic with examples from cultures related to Mandarin or Chinese history. Japanese kanji, for example, shares a great many similarities with Chinese characters.

HECTOR’S Mynah Triumph Like the reports relating to the death of Mark Twain – which the gentleman concerned noted were greatly exaggerated – claims that the endangered Bali Starling is again on the verge of extinction in its natural habitat may lack several crucial grades of veracity. It has been claimed that the program to rebuild the bird population in the West Bali National Park has been seriously compromised by poachers. That of course would be no surprise if it were true, Bali and indeed the whole of Indonesia being a place where many social precepts are promiscuously ignored and laws are broken ubiquitously if there’s money in it. In these areas of malfeasance it is very far from being alone, that is true. It is in its attempts to reduce malfeasance, and its real official interest in doing so, that its performance is noticeably risible.

But in this instance, happily, it appears not to be the case.

The reported reduction in breeding numbers is based on observation and it has been pointed out that the introduced pairs may simply be in parts of the park where they are not observed by human eyes. Apparently the Bali Starling is as smart as the Bali Dog, which to the chagrin of officials who wish to kill it sensibly runs away when it sees men with nets approaching. The Bali Starling is indeed a unique bird, not least because it is not a starling at all, but a mynah: Leucopsar rothschildi, locally known as Jalak Bali. It is found in captivity in zoos around the world (and on Nusa Penida) but of course it should be encouraged to repopulate its natural West Bali environment. The Yokohama Zoo in Japan is working with Bali’s wildlife authorities to re-establish a viable breeding population in the national park.

Dropping the Ball The 2015 Rugby World Cup competition has turned up a number of surprises. Japan beat South Africa for one thing, in an early group match. It was a fluke, though very instructive of the fact that you must never drop the ball until the final whistle blows. The South Africans were mortified (their coach felt it necessary to apologize to his nation) but they were beaten fairly, in the closing minutes, by some very inventive play and by Japanese determination, a factor that should never be discounted.

The best surprise, however, was that the host nation, England, was eliminated from the Cup before it got out of its group round of matches. Two disastrous losses at Twickenham, its home ground in London, to Wales and Australia, sent it home – or would have done so if it hadn’t already been home – early and shamefully. For the rest of us, of course, it was rather less than an event of such stunning calamity that it required a period of national mourning. It was much more a belly laugh occasion. The words of Sergeant Major Williams in the British TV sitcom It Ain’t Half Hot Mum sprang to mind: Oh dear. How Sad. Carry On. It also produced a collector’s item range of memes on social media. The Diary is a rugby fan, a legacy of an undistinguished school-years experience in which, beneficially for other reasons related to acquiring life skills, we learned while playing in the No. 10 spot – fly-half – the importance of being able to dodge the nuggety bits, the built-of-bricks blokes in the scrum. Off the field these fellows are often very nice chaps, and we are friendly with two of these – they missed out on mauling us on the field by a small matter of geography and two decades – with whom in recent weeks we have shared a few laughs.

One is a very fortunate fellow indeed, whose life circumstances have given him the opportunity to be in England for the Cup. We’d have given our eye teeth to be there too – it’s easy and cheap to get them made and implanted in Bali, after all – except that our own life circumstances required our presence elsewhere. He sent us a very nice photo of the England team bus. The caption with it pointed out to any prospective buyers of this conveyance that it was a bargain because it had only been used twice.

project to bring a smile to the dial is the toll road proposal that would provide a fast traffic link from the crowded south to the unserviced north and which would wind through the mountains from Tabanan regency to Buleleng. It’s true that this would be a boon to the north, if it wishes to be overwhelmed by tourists like the south. It’s odds on that it does, since the ubiquitous rule here is to acquire in haste (if someone else pays for it) and forget about repenting at leisure because the future does not yet exist and is therefore something for other people to worry about.

The Rp 35 trillion 125-km toll road would have the additional benefit (apparently) of being the longest in Indonesia, beating the Cipali toll road in West Java by nine crucial kilometres. It would be interesting to see the figures on which the proposed developer, Waskita Toll Road, is basing its commercial return and due diligence.

Behave Yourselves Seriously, that’s sound advice. Or so it seems. In Aceh, where the Wahhabi shadows hang especially heavily in the air, police have apprehended women who were seen hugging, for reasons that according to some reports include suspected lesbianism. In Jakarta, “world city”, the authorities have placed a midnight curfew on entertainment places. In Bali, police have said they plan to charge a wedding coordinator with blasphemy after a same-sex ceremony was performed at the local focus of valuable pink dollar tourism, the Four Seasons at Sayan, just up the hill from Ubud, where in the name of self-awareness and mental freedom all sorts of Tantric and other sensual experiences may be had. That olfactory unpleasantness in the air is hypocrisy. They do it so well here. Amazingly, this odour is often suppressed temporarily by the aerosol application of magical pocket money.

As we so often find it necessary to state, lest we be accused of western uppity-ness or colonial recidivism, it is for Indonesia to govern itself and administer its society as it wishes.

That’s not the issue (we have to say that fairly often too). But the government needs to work out with the Botherers, who are legion and are found everywhere in various forms, whether it wants to maintain the national objective to keep Indonesia as a practising part of the 21st century. If they don’t want to do this, they should say so.

Sands of Time We read in the very useful Lombok Guide that Tomy Winata’s search for galactic quantities of sand to fill in Benoa Bay for his Excrescence-sur-Mer project has resurfaced, though in a sub-surface way. Having been knocked back by West Nusa Tenggara Governor Zainul Majdi on his plan to strip an East Lombok beach of its natural mineral covering, on very sensible environmental and social grounds, Mr Winata is now proposing to dredge what he wants up from the sea floor in the same general area. This application is under the mining regulations and (at last report) had the support of the Governor whose remit in that area of administration is minimal.

It’s still a very bad idea, both for Lombok – whose environment as Governor Zainul has previously said is held in trust for future generations – and for Bali, which needs more dreadful kitsch and loudly selfish rich like a hole in the head.

Benoa Bay is also an environment that, as with every other one (Sumatran and Kalimantan forests for example) should be treated with respect. It’s true that Benoa long ago ceased to be the pristine, mangrove fringed tidal inlet that nature intended. It is now part of the built environment, the human managed environment. Like a garden, however, it can be beautiful and retain its natural usefulness to the wider environment.

Protecting the mangroves instead of digging them up and dumping huge quantities of sand in their place would be a good way to do this. Commercial reasons are rarely sufficient argument to destroy something of irreplaceable, inestimable value.

Takes its Toll Among the many delights of living in Bali is that development policy (yes, it does sound like an oxymoron when you put it like that) seems to consist of flights of fancy.

BA Feature Article Bali’s Sur¿ng History

by Bill Dalton Australian journalist, author and publisher Phil Jarratt has been writing about Bali’s surf culture ever since he first walked onto the hot sands of Kuta Beach more than 40 years ago. Few people are better quali¿ed to chronicle this arcane subject. A former editor of Tr a c k s a n d A u s t r a l i a n Surfers Journal, and an associate editor of Surfer, Jarratt is regarded as one of the foremost authorities on the evolution of sur¿ng in Asia.

Recently, with a tinge of thoughtful melancholy in his voice, the tanned white-haired veteran sat on the terrace of my home in Tabanan and recounted for an hour the very beginnings of surfing on Bali – the first pre-war surfer Bob Koke, the discovery of the island by Australian and American surfers in the early 1970s, the past and present lives of dashing and heroic sur¿ng legends who died tragically or mysteriously and of the storied overland hippie trail that ended in Bali.

Today Bali is considered a mecca for warm water sur¿ng and is a well-established surf destination on the world’s professional circuit. Surfers who have experienced perfect waves all over the world claim that Bali surf’s power, speed and consistency is comparable to almost anywhere. The island gets the full force of Southern Ocean swells travelling thousands of miles to break over shallow coral reefs. Trade winds blow away from the land, giving shape and consistency to year round swells, drawing thousands of Australians, Californians, Japanese and Brazilians each year to test themselves on the island’s famous tubular waves.

One of the fortunate few who experienced Bali’s early sur¿ng scene, Phil Jarratt is an award-winning author of 30 books, including more than a dozen on sur¿ng. Reliving this lost time in the new 2nd edition of his book Bali Heaven and Hell, Jarratt goes behind the smiling face of Bali presented to generations of tourists. The book is an idiosyncratic mixture of historical scholarship, Australian sur¿ng stories, the surf exploration, colonization and culture of Kuta, the Bukit and Grajagan of East Java, the evolution of the tourism industry and a social/ cultural retelling of the age of the island’s discovery by the West as told through many voices and perspectives.

Surfers were among the very first We s t e r n visitors to Bali in the early years of Suharto’s New Order government.

W h a t a strange and driven mission this writer has chosen for himself. In an enthusiastic Kerouac-esque steam of consciousness, like playing jazz trumpet or riding a wave, Jarratt recreates the atmosphere and authentic feel of Bali in those early Barbarian days of sur¿ng, “the craziness of the tiny airport terminal, waiting forever for our surfboards, the pandemonium outside as porters and bemo drivers hustled for our buck. I loved it immediately.”

Balinese surfers evolved. Their Àuid movements, control, robust natures and easygoing lifestyle made them skillful and ardent surfers. As the surf industry took hold, it gave rise to enterprising Balinese lifeguards, guides and sur¿ng entrepreneurs. Surf shops opened, Balinese-style surf wear brands were introduced to compete with the global brands like Quicksilver and Billabong.

It’s fascinating how pristine and innocent this time was, known only among the surfer cognoscenti. Bali’s ¿rst surf club, the Bali Surfing Club, was established in 1979. The first professional surf competition, the Om Bali Pro, was held in 1980. But what really accelerated the popularity of Bali as a sur¿ng destination was the release of the greatest Australian surf ¿lm ever made, Morning of the Earth in 1972, revealing surf’s new frontier - the discovery by a few loners of U l u w a t u ’ s demanding breaks at the end of a long arid dirt road, a time when monkeys not people watched from surrounding cliffs.

After that landmark ¿lm, the Àoodgates opened with the inÀux of 20,000 tourists by 1973, about 1000 of them surfers. The release of BBC’s ¿lm Balinese Surfer in 1976 only fed into the mythology and quickened the pace of arrivals. Kuta and environs became the lair of shady con artists, layabout heirs to fortunes, pseudo-surfer-fetishists, spiritual seekers, rock stars, itinerant yachtsmen, rag, silver and bead traders, dope dealers, career criminals, fugitives reinventing themselves and other infamous characters including naked skinny longhaired hippies who ingested mushrooms and smoked Sumatran weed on the beach and bought fake student IDs to buy discounted airline tickets.

In the course of Phil Jarratt’s research, he has interviewed hundreds of fellow Australians, many of them pioneering surfers. Reliving his Bali past, and learning so much that he didn’t know as a young surfer, has given him more pleasure than any of his other sur¿ng books: Salts and Suits, Kelly Slater: For the Love, Hottest 100 Surf legends, Surfing Australia: A Complete History of Surfboard Riding in Australia, and That Summer at Boomerang. A 3-time recipient of the Australian Sur¿ng Hall of Fame Media Award, Jarratt, now 64 years old, will always be a surfer at heart. He lives between Noosa, Bali and Hawaii or wherever the surf’s up.

Bali’s First Surfer

This was a halcyon time when Kuta was one of the three K’s – Katmandu, Kabul and Kuta - and the summer of love was only getting started. Surrounded by ¿elds and streams, in the ¿shing village everything cost less than a dollar, bemo were the main mode of transport, bicycles were still in widespread use, huge American cars lurched down bumpy dirt roads, Zamrud Airline’s DC 3s ruled the budget skies, traveling to Java was an horrendous bus and train journey and drug overdoses spelled the end of drug deals gone wrong.

Louise and Bob Koke, as recounted in their book Our Hotel in Bali, written in 1942, pioneered the concept of the Bali resort.

In 1936, fed up with a cheating husband, Louise Garrett met and quickly had an affair with Bob Koke, a handsome young tennis pro. Together they ran away to the Far East via Yokohama and Shanghai before arriving in Bali where they established a hotel in a coconut grove on Kuta Beach. The compound of thatched-roof bungalows fanned out from a central lounge and dining area, with all rooms facing the sea.

The Kokes opened their Kuta Beach Hotel in March 1937. It was an immediate success.

In the early 1970s, the empty road between Kuta and Legian took you through palm plantations. The dirt track Jl. Pantai Kuta that led straight to the sea was lined with the ramshackle shacks. Made’s Warung was just a shack, and the network of sandy lanes sprouted just a dozen losmen where at night the only lights were from kerosene lamps Àickering in the windows.

Not a single piece of plastic trash could be found on the beach and the ocean was perfectly clear. Venturing into the surf beginning ¿rst around 1972 - a new breed of hip young

As a surfer himself, Bob Koke recognized immediately the wave-riding potential of Kuta Beach and sent for his heavy solid redwood sur¿ng plank from Hawaii. He worked with his staff to carve out a few wooden boards in the Hawaiian alaiastyle, sensibly ¿guring that guests could ride the shorter, lighter and more maneuverable boards in either standing or prone positions with very little tuition. When his own board arrived, Koke tried to show his young Balinese employees how it could be ridden on Kuta’s breaks. Though he couldn’t get his boys

up and riding on the big board, they soon became pro¿cient enough on the shorter boards to guide guests through the thrill of a Àying down a line of surf.

The Kokes had all kinds of takers for their surfing lessons, including one elderly British aristocratic dowager who almost drowned, and several young men who, after a few cocktails, confused ambition with ability and had to be hauled staggering out of the shore break. In December 1941, Japanese bombers attacked Hawaii’s Pearl Harbor, war broke out all over the Paci¿c and Bali’s incipient tourism industry shut down virtually overnight. That New Year’s Eve, the Kokes drove their Chevrolet to the Java ferry and Àed Bali to the relative safety of Java, leaving the island’s swells to fall along an empty shoreline for a generation.

The Sur¿ng Frontier Overcrowding in the world’s better-known breaks inevitably led to a period of surf exploration through the far-flung islands of Indonesia, which had become known for the world’s richest source of intense, perfect waves.

Grajagan’s incredible surf is an integral part of Bali’s surf lore, offering rare insights into the paranoia and obsessive secrecy of the surfer-scammers of the 1970s. At the time, sur¿ng on Bali was pure adventure when fewer than a dozen rode the giant waves of Uluwatu on a regular basis. None of them had ventured any further along the Bukit Peninsula cliffs, where in later years another half-dozen world-class surf breaks would be discovered.

One of the early riders was Bob Laverty for whom the ultimate challenge was getting off the beaten path, ¿nding those isolated barrels. The black sheep heir to the Thriftimart fortune, Laverty and others among the Kuta crew feared that Uluwatu would soon be overrun and decided to explore the possibilities of another break only seen from the air.

Most sources agree that it was Laverty, the unassuming Californian remittance man, who ¿rst noticed the long crescent of reef that tapered along the edge of the Plengkung Forest Reserve at the southeastern tip of East Java while on a Àight from Jakarta in late 1971. He knew that those tell tale trails of white water along the reef indicated jaw-dropping sur¿ng potential. Laverty later rode his motorcycle back to the peninsula and walked 20 km up the beach to con¿rm his discovery of a new sur¿ng paradise.

The Kuta crew launched a land and sea mission a few weeks later, becoming the ¿rst to surf the now-famous break, sleeping on the sand and never venturing into the tiger-infested jungle.

The ¿rst surf camps opened in Grajagan (G-Land, as it became known) in 1977 and the rest is history, but Bob Laverty was not around to see it. Soon after the ¿rst G-Land mission in 1972, the epileptic took off on a giant wave at Uluwatu. His friends later found his limp body Àoating in the surf, still attached to his surfboard by a bungee cord. ** Phil Jarratt will appear with American writer William Finnegan in a session called “Writing Waves” at the Ubud Writers and Readers Festival on October 30th. The two will also appear at a festival fringe event at Deus Ex Machina, Canggu, on November 5th.

TOKO BUKU Reviews of English language books on Indonesia

by Bill Dalton

DragonÀyers by Christine Velde DragonÀyers explores the lives of prominent expatriates working in varying ¿elds. The book sets out to understand why they were drawn to Indonesia and examines their diverse but valuable contributions.

A dragonÀy is an apt metaphor for an expatriate. Renowned as fantastically agile Àyers, darting, twisting, turning and transforming, these remarkable insects also reÀect light in powerful ways. Expats also shine a new light on other Westerner’s preconceptions about Indonesia, allowing them to realize the illusions they may harbor about the country.

A case in point, consider the number of literary classics that have been written about Indonesia by expats: Colin McPhee’s House in Bali, C. J. Koch’s The Year of Living Dangerously and Elizabeth Pisani’s Indonesia Etc. in which readers unfamiliar with Indonesia are able to see this complex and rapidly developing nation, its people and their way of life in a revealing new light.

This non-¿ction book is divided into four sections: Part I is dry but necessary background, de¿ning terms and providing historical perspective; Part II explains the author’s research methods, how the expats were chosen to be included and discusses ethical issues in the selection process; Part III, the meat of the book, pro¿les 14 expats with accompanying notes by the author; Part IV discusses travel, writing and gives summaries of each expat’s contributions.

Australian author Christine Velde, a university lecturer and veteran S.E Asia traveler, found her subjects by searching websites, academic departments of universities, international conferences and by word of mouth. Her interviewees are not travelers, but have made the existential decision to take on the risks of leaving home, job, family and friends to sink roots in a warm and radically different foreign country for personal or professional reasons. They are not a homogenous group but come from diverse backgrounds and a variety of geographic locations. In some cases, the process of repatriation and inability to adapt to winter was wrenchingly dif¿cult, the experience ampli¿ed in proportion to the number of years spent in Indonesia.

Having learned to see the world from a juxtaposed position or double perspective, the participants have gone through a hugely transformative process in which both their home environment and the environment of their adopted country are felt and seen in parallel with one another. Harry Aveling says it best, ”Indonesia gains most value from me not when I think like an Indonesian, but when I act like an Australian who knows and respects Indonesian culture and can present different and distinct perspectives on it to Australians and Indonesians alike.”

The pro¿les are not the Q & A format of an interview but rather short biographies that the subjects themselves have written in response to 12-15 questions posed by the author in either emailed questionnaires or face-to-face interviews conducted in Bali, Jakarta, Sydney and Melbourne. Each bio is accompanied by the expat’s photo, a photo of an Indonesian setting or event at a conference or festival, in company with politicians. The selections are weighted towards men who were more interested and prepared to be interviewed than the women who were contacted. Some have returned to their home countries, others are mobile professionals who regularly travel back and forth, while still others live permanently in Indonesia. The focus is also on Western expats and not those from India, China and the Gulf States.

Understandably, fellow Australians made up half of the 14 interviewees. Although the ¿nal selections favor advisors in government aid and development programs and academics like herself, they hail from mixed disciplines. David Reeve is a diplomat, researcher, historian, lecturer and project manager.

Harry Aveling, who has translated over 50 works of Indonesian and Malay literature into English, has been extremely inÀuential in introducing the richness of Indonesian culture to the outside world. His sharp, fresh insights on the dif¿culty of translating Indonesian were for me the most illuminating and well-written mini-memoir in the whole book.

Janet Steele, a former Fulbright scholar in the American studies program at the University of Indonesia (1997-1998) during the fall of the Suharto government, has written Wars Within: An Independent Magazine in Suharto’s Indonesia, that tells the story of how Tempo survived 23 years of

autocratic rule. James Castle is the manager of Indonesia’s largest and most prestigious CEO forum. Gustav Papanek, an economist who spent 20 years teaching at Harvard, was a mover and shaker in Indonesian government circles for many years as an advisor for a high-pressure team of technocrats. David Hill, involved with Indonesia since his mid-teens, is a professional linguist who teaches Indonesian at university level and has authored two books about the media and politics of Indonesia.

Academic specialists are trained to transmit their knowledge and research about Indonesia to other Westerners. The text Àickers with their valuable advice on understanding, appreciating and getting along with Indonesians. A hard-earned few memorable gems:

C/E/G-14 Oct. 15

*“Indonesians don’t really listen to what expats say. There’s an outward respect but an inner disbelief.” David Reeve *”A work that is considered ‘beautiful’ in Indonesian may be over-emotional and lacking in serious content for a reader used to understatement and plain language.” Harry Aveling *”The USA is a structured, legalistic society. Americans tend to trust institutions, whereas Indonesians rarely trust them.

They put their trust in family and networks of friends and associates, and are wonderful networkers.” James Castle *”One of the things I love about Indonesia is that whereas in the US we have the illusion that we are in control of our lives; in Indonesia, it is obvious that we aren’t really in control of anything.”

Janet Steele *”I don’t think people here in Indonesia are ‘poor,’ and I get angry when people say that.

It’s Westerners who go through cases of beer that I think are poor.” Heinz von Holsen *”Australia is not as lively as Indonesia, which has so much street life. Australia is very quiet and the streets are lonely at night.

In Australia, you have to organize entertainment, whereas in Indonesia it is there all the time.” David Reeve. *”The Indonesian nation and its institutions often appear to be highly rational and emotionally restrained.

In contrast, modern Indonesian literature seems very unreasonable and emotional.” Harry Aveling.

Included also are a cross section of writers. Kerry Collison, a writer of political thrillers set in Indonesia, who at one time was stripped of his Australian citizenship. In his 18 years in the country (1967-1985), he established startups, housing developments and organizations. American travel writer Bill Dalton, author of the groundbreaking guidebook Indonesia Handbook, now works as a journalist for Tempo magazine in Jakarta. Heinz von Holsen, founder of Bali’s famous Bumbu Bali Restaurant, has published nine books on Indonesian cooking and conducted over 1500 cooking classes.

C/E/I-27 May 15

I particularly enjoyed the comparisons between the lives of these global citizens in Indonesia and their lives in their home countries and the anecdotes on the shock of relocating to Indonesia from Australia, USA or Europe and vice versa.

The abrupt disorientation and confusion that ensues is often hilarious and revealing of what is best and worst about both Western and Indonesian cultures.

Learning of the achievements and contributions made by the book’s participating economists, project managers, artists, humanists, activists, writers and entrepreneurs with their deep experiences and insights in Indonesian culture increases our knowledge and understanding of Indonesia.

This collection of self-penned biographies does a great service to members of both cultures.

Local News Human Rights Watch Urges the Release of 2 Women Arrested for Hugging in Public The international rights group, Human Rights Watch has urged the authorities in Aceh to release unconditionally two women who were arrested on suspicion of being lesbians after they were seen hugging in public.

The arrests were made under an Islamic bylaw, which the rights group said was contrary to the rights to non-discrimination and fundamental freedoms under the Indonesian Constitution and international human rights law.

On 28 September, the religious police or sharia police arrested two women, aged 18 and 19 years old for hugging in public in Banda Aceh. A police officer told reporters that it was “suspected the two women were lesbians,” the rights group said.

“The arrest of two women in Aceh for everyday behavior is an outrageous abuse of police power that should be considered a threat to all Indonesians.

The Indonesian government needs to press Aceh to repeal its discriminatory bylaws,” the group’s director for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender rights program, Graeme Reid said in a statement.

According to Human Rights Watch, the two women were in police custody where officers were putting pressure on them to contact their families so that they could be released into their custody.

Lesbianism and sodomy, two offences prohibited by Aceh’s criminal code, took effect from September last year. These offences however do not exist in Indonesia’s criminal code.

“The Acehnese bylaws extend sharia or Islamic law to non-Muslims and the criminal code permits punishments of 100 lashes and 100 months in prison for consensual same-sex acts,” it said. The Human Rights Watch group called on the Aceh provincial legislature to repeal the discriminatory bylaws.

The Aceh Legislative Council’s legislative body head, Iskandar Usman Al-Farlaky told the Antara news agency that the qanun jinayat or Islamic behaviour-government bylaw in the province did not contradict the Criminal Law Procedures Code.

Referring to news that several non-governmental organizations in Jakarta were filing a judicial review against its by-law, he defended the by-law, saying that it was aimed at regulating the people’s lives. There are fears that the by-laws had the potential to be used to discriminate against minority groups.

“It’s just an opinion purportedly spread by parties that don’t want to see Islamic laws implemented in Aceh. If they want to confront Islamic laws with issues related to gay and lesbian groups, there will likely be a sharp difference in opinion,” Iskandar told the Antara. (October 5th 2015)

Australian Woman Questioned in Bali Over Alleged Illegal Adoptions An Australian woman living in Bali is being investigated by police in relation to illegal adoption of local children. Since the investigation started the three children in her care have been placed in an orphanage while police investigate whether they were illegally adopted from their parents.

It is understood that the parents of the two seven-year-old girls, who are not siblings, have each visited them at the orphanage, having not seen them for quite some time.

News Corporation understands the two sets of parents now want the girls back.

Two of the children are from Sumba, an island in eastern Indonesia and one is from Java. The boy is aged nine and the two girls are aged seven.

The parents of the nine-year-old boy have not visited and do not live in Bali. Police say they are still investigating all aspects of the case to uncover whether in fact the adoption was illegal.

Bali police spokesman Hery Wiyanto said the investigation was begun after complaints from the public. The Australian woman, who has lived in Bali for the past decade, had custody of the children after their birth parents could not look after them. The woman was in tears on Tuesday (6/10) when speaking to News Corp Australia about the case.

Mr. Wiyanto said the woman was being investigated under Indonesia’s child protection laws which carry a 10-year prison term. “We are investigating the Australian for allegedly adopting three children illegally. We have questioned several witnesses related to the case. There are 11 witnesses who have been questioned,” Mr. Wiyanto said.

He said that the woman had been questioned once and police were now seeking to question her a second time and were waiting for her lawyer to be available.

Mr. Wiyanto said that so far the woman had not been named as a suspect in the case, which is the first step in charges being laid. Police were also co-coordinating with child protection organizations in relation to the case and the three children had been taken to Sanglah hospital to undergo psychiatric testing.

Since the investigation started the children have been placed in the care of the Jodie O’Shea orphanage. The centre was set up in memory of young Australian woman Jodie O’Shea who was killed in the 2002 Bali nightclub bombings.

The orphanage chairwoman, Sari Iskawari, said the three children had now been at the orphanage for the past month.

She said when they arrived they could speak English but not much Indonesian and had trouble communicating with the other children at the orphanage. There are about 90 children at the orphanage.

“There is a legal process that should be carried out by everybody who wants to adopt children. Especially for foreigners, there are many more requirements.

“From the investigation, indeed we have found that the child’s parents, for example the parents from Sumba have no ability to look after the child. So DN (the Australian) decided to look after the child.

But apparently DN also suffers financial deficiency. As she has no money she could not send the children to school. It was reported to police that the children have left school for the past year as she could not pay school tuition.”

In a personal website about her journey the Australian woman says that she moved to Indonesia to live in 2005 and describes herself as a “foster parent” to the three Indonesian children. She says there that the children were at risk of being sold to child traffickers and that she convinced the parents to allow her to look after them.

“I have written legal agreements with each birth parent stating that I am responsible for their child until they are 18 years of age,” she says on her website, where she also seeks donations in order to help her care for the children.

Unofficial adoptions of children in Indonesia are common.

Often families will allow a child to be brought up by a family member who has been unable to have her own children but there are no legal signed documents to that effect.

However legal adoption of Indonesian children by foreigners is a complicated and long process, often involving the prospective adoptive parents spending months visiting the child at an orphanage before adoption can even be considered. (October 7th 2015)

Indonesian Death Toll in Mina Tragedy Rises to 103 The number of Indonesians who died in the recent Mina tragedy continues to increase, as of Tuesday (6/10), the figure had reached 103. “By Tuesday morning, at 8 a.m.

Saudi time, the number of dead Hajj pilgrims increased to 103 from 100,” Chief of the Indonesian Hajj Pilgrimage Organizing Committee for Mecca region Arsyad Hidayat said. “Until now, there are still body containers that need to be opened,” Hidayat noted while providing an update on the data of the Indonesian victims involved in the Mina stampede, which took place on September 24. Eleven bodies were identified through complementary file data at the Al Muashim morgue and through their fingerprints.

The deteriorating physical condition of the victim’s bodies has made the identification process difficult.

According to a report released by The Australian, passenger Joel Sirna informed Perth radio station 6PR that they panicked and cried after one of the engines burst into flames before the aircraft made a successful emergency landing. He said that the passengers were awoken by the midair drama, which unfolded not far from the Bali coast. Some passengers were highly distressed, and others tried to calm them down.

(September 26th 2015) Tigerair Gets Official Nod to Fly to Bali Amid Qantas’ Objections Virgin’s subsidiary Tigerair will soon fly to Bali. This follows the recognition of a government body that Tigerair Australia is an “Australian international airline.” The official nod came despite concerns raised by rival airline Qantas.

Tigerair now plans to launch Bali flights from Melbourne, Adelaide and Perth from March. Tigerair will use Virgin international’s Boeing 737 aircraft and the pilots of the parent company on the Bali route, though the flight attendants may come from the budget carrier. In mid September, Qantas filed a submission before the IASC, objecting to the claims made by Virgin’s subsidiary that it wants to be considered an Australian carrier. Qantas argued that Virgin needs to prove that its subsidiary is an Australian carrier and called for a thorough assessment of the application. A Virgin spokeswoman also reiterated that Tigerair’s international arm is very much the subsidiary of Virgin’s international arm. (September 29th 2015).

Plans Go Ahead for Indonesia’s longest Toll Road in Bali

Bali Garden Opened for 2005 Bomb Anniversary The Australian consulate-general in Bali will open its memorial garden to the public for the 10th anniversary of the 2005 Bali bombings. As Bali marked 10 years since it was rocked by a second deadly terrorist attack on 1st October 2005, the public was invited to leave tributes at the Australian Consulate-General. The 2005 Bali bombings in Kuta and Jimbaran claimed 20 lives, including that of four Australians, and those of three bombers. More than 100 people were injured, among them 17 Australians. The consulate-general’s memorial garden was open on Thursday (1/10) for private reflection and remembrance between 8am and 4pm local time, and flowers and candles will be available. The bombers targeted restaurants at 7.30pm at night, a little more than a week short of the third anniversary of the more deadly 2002 bombings at a Kuta nightclub.

According to Widowati the samples consisted of fish, chicken, shrimp, shrimp paste and a number of snacks and cakes. The chemicals included rhodamine (a food dye), borax (commonly used to produce glassware), formalin (a solution of formaldehyde and water) and metanil yellow (another food dye). Widowati affirmed that more inspections would be conducted at other markets and urged people to exercise caution when purchasing food at markets, as the four chemicals that were detected are unsafe for consumption. (October 7th 2015) Controversy After Gay Marriage Wedding in Bali A couple that held a same-sex marriage celebration in Bali, which featured a man dressed in the garb of a Hindu priest, has caused a furore on the holiday island. The mystery couple - an American and an Indonesian - whose identities are not publicly known, were married at a five-star Ubud resort recently. But when photographs of the wedding - which showed what appeared to be a Hindu holy man in attendance, and two young women dressed in traditional Balinese attire - were circulated on Facebook, the couple reportedly faced threats amid a national outcry. Indonesian law stipulates that marriage is between a male and female and Bali’s Hindu leaders, including the Bali Governor Made Pastika, have criticized the wedding. The issue has now created public debate. Ordinary Balinese are up in arms and there are calls for an investigation to track down those involved. Bali’s Police chief, Inspector General Sugeng Priyanto has also weighed into the debate, saying police are investigating whether any laws have been broken. They are specifically looking at a law surrounding desecration of religion, because Hindu rituals were allegedly used during the ceremony. He said police believe the couple had married in the US previously and had held a ceremony in Bali. (September 23rd 2015)

The toll subsidiary of construction contractor Waskita has expressed further interest to develop Indonesia’s longest toll road, spanning some 125 kilometers in length along the west coast of Bali from Kuta to Lovina. The Finance Director of Waskita Toll Road (WTR), Feri Purwadi spoke with Governor Made Mangku Pastika on Monday 10 October about the development, and believes the overpass toll road would represent a step in the right direction in improving Bali’s infrastructure. “Bali is a priority for WTR and is an emerging toll road market. We have acquired 8 toll entities and we plan to set up a provincial company in Bali,” said Purwadi. It is understood the toll road will extend through the districts of Badung, Jembrana and Buleleng and will surpass West Java’s Cipali toll which is 116 kilometers in length to become Indonesia’s longest toll road. The toll will be comprised of four separate tolls, firstly the KutaCanggu-Tanah Lot-Soka segment, then Soka-Pekutatan where it will then branch further northwest from Pekutatan to Gilimanuk and north-northeast to Lovina. Reports from the meeting suggest that Pastika responded positively to the WTR’s plans, and (October 26th 2015)

Rabid Dog Bites 11 at Local Secondary School A dog that was later tested positive for the rabies virus terrorized a Jembrana secondary school on Tuesday (6/10), biting eleven people. According to staff at SMA Negeri 1 State School, the crazed dog randomly attacked students and member of the cleaning staff in the car park, before moving on to the secondary school next door. Following the incident, officers from the Department of Agriculture for Jembrana (Pemusnahan) were called to capture and exterminate the animal. “The number of bites a dog is indeed quite a lot. We are also now vaccinating pet dogs of the people living locally, and we are appealing to people who have a pet dog to get it vaccinated to prevent rabies virus,” said Wayan Widarsa said, the head of the Department of Agriculture for the region.

Bali Starling Numbers Now Critical

C/NV/U-29 April 15

The population of the endangered Bali Starling (Leucopsar rothschildi) is under increasing threat due to illegal poaching.

Combating the illegal trade in Bali Starlings, and restoring the population to sufficient numbers was the main focus for the International Workshop, which opened on Friday (2/10), and was held at the Bali Marine and Safari Park in Gianyar.

Chairman Tony Sumampau of the Bali Starling Association (APCB) said the bird was a Bali icon, yet despite that, its existence is very critical, and steps must be taken to preserve the population in the wild. “We want to make Indonesia into a conservation centre for Bali Starlings again, and during these workshops we are asking for input from the various stakeholders for the preservation of the Bali Starling. The end goal of course is that Bali Starlings can return to live in their natural habitat,” stated Tony. Several breeders from abroad have agreed to return captivity bred Starlings to Bali, including Yokohama Research Society in Japan, who will give 120 to be returned to Indonesia. “We’re trying to raise the population, and the target for 2015-2019 is to increase their population by 10 percent,” said Tachrir.

Dog Skin Problems in Bali Whether you are a local, an ex-pat or a tourist in Bali, you have probably come across mangy looking dogs wandering along the side of the road in a sorry state.

Although skin disease is rarely fatal, it causes considerable suffering to the dog and is particularly upsetting to many simply because it is so easily ¿xed if the dog were to be taken to a vet.

There is a huge amount of skin disease amongst Bali’s canine population for several reasons. Firstly the climate is favourable to the proliferation of bacteria, yeast and parasites that cause skin problems. Secondly, the large amount of free-roaming dogs facilitates the transfer of contagious skin disease such as mange. Thirdly, many of these freeroaming dogs are either strays or have poor or uneducated owners who do not take them to the vet when they start showing symptoms. In this article we describe the four most common skin problems affecting dogs in Bali and how to diagnose, treat and prevent them recurring.

SCABIES (Sarcoptic mange) The word ‘mange’ can be used for any skin disease caused by mites. There are many different types of mites and each of them causes a different type of mange. The most widely known is the round shaped mite Sarcoptes scabiei, which burrows tunnels through the skin causing an intense itch.

Most of the damage is done by self-trauma as any animal with scabies will scratch itself raw leading to bleeding sores.

Scabies and ringworm are the two canine skin diseases transmissible to humans so if your pet is scratching it is wise to seek prompt treatment.

Diagnosis is confirmed by visualising the mites microscopically via a ‘skin scrape’ at your local vets, and treated by a subcutaneous injection of ivermectin or a topical spot-on such as Revolution or Advocate, containing an invermectin-like drug. For severe cases a second shot is needed a week later. If the self trauma from scratching has caused a secondary bacterial infection on top of the scabies, then a medicated shampooing is also recommended or if severe, a course of antibiotics.

Applying a monthly spot-on such as Revolution or Advocate also provides protection from contracting scabies from the environment. Your dog does not need direct physical contact with another dog suffering from mange, it is supposedly enough to lie down in the same spot where a mangy dog has previously been lying.

DEMODEX (Demodectic mange) The second type of mange widely prevalent in Bali, and this one is harder to get rid of. Caused by the cigar shaped mites Demodex canis or Demodex cati, these parasites live in and feast on hair follicles, causing the hair to ultimately fall out and bald patches to appear. Eventually the dog can go completely bald and chronic scarring can give the skin that thick grey

leathery appearance that we sometimes see on strays in Bali.

Unlike scabies, demodex is not contagious to other dogs, but is thought to have a hereditary component and is passed from mother to pups during nursing. In fact it is normal for both dogs and even humans to have small numbers of demodex mites living in the hair follicles, and it only becomes a problem if the immune system is weakened and the demodex mites start breeding uncontrollably.

Diagnosis is also via skin scrape at your local vets, and once con¿rmed there are three treatment options. The most common one is to give liquid ivermectin orally every day for 6-8 weeks. The second option is to apply a spot-on treatment (called Advocate) weekly, and the third option is to do Amitraz scrubs twice a week until the skin is completely clear. Whichever option is chosen it is advisable to treat for a further two weeks after a negative skin scrape, to ensure that all of the mites are eradicated. Although demodex is eminently curable, it takes a lot longer to do so than curing scabies.

RINGWORM (dermatophytosis) Ringworm is not a worm as the name suggests, but more like a type of fungus. It can affect dogs, cats and humans and is usually caused by the Microsporum and Trichophyton species of dermatophytes. Ringworm is transmitted by direct contact with fungal spores, it is not dangerous to the animal but we advise treating it aggressively due to the fact it is contagious to humans and you could end up with an unsightly red patch on your body or worse, your face.

Ringworm is easy to diagnose as it causes focal patches of hair loss, usually without signi¿cant inÀammation of the skin.

In other words, it is generally not itchy so the dog will not cause self-trauma by scratching unless the ringworm is combined with a concurrent parasitic or bacterial infection.

Aside from the telltale appearance of the skin lesions, ringworm can be con¿rmed by checking under UV light (certain species glow green) or by a special fungal laboratory culture.

Treatment for ringworm involves medicated shampooing using Sebazole, or anti-fungal drugs such as griseofulvin, itraconazole or ketoconazole. These drugs are usually given orally to pets but topically to humans, as humans will generally not attempt to lick off the cream applied to their skin!

HOTSPOTS (acute moist dermatitis) Some of the larger breeds such as the Golden Retriever, Labrador, Husky and Rottweiler are prone to focal bacterial infections of the skin called ‘hotspots’. These are intensely itchy and a dog will lick at them or scratch them non-stop until the skin is raw and bleeding. Diagnosis is made by ruling out mites with a skin scrape and by their characteristic sudden onset appearance. Treatment is by clipping the hair at the site of the hotspot, scrubbing the skin with an antiseptic shampoo, and a course of oral antibiotics. Vets may also give a single injection of a steroid to relieve the itchiness until the antibiotics kick in.

Pathways to Healing the Body, Mind & Spirit

By Michele Cempaka

The Birthing of a New World

Corporations are madly scrambling to rein in their power over the world; the powers that be know that there has been and continues to be a quantum expansion of consciousness in the world, which gives us access to our powers and abilities that have been suppressed for millennia. Their strong hold on the world is rapidly weakening, yet they will continue to fight tooth and nail until the end. To what end?

For corporations, it means complete domination and control over all products that are imported and exported, revenue, security, and full access to our emails, browsing, telephone records, credit reports and much more. We are no longer living in a free society, yet this is all about to change.

We are now in an era that has opened the door for the world to really transform. We have reached a critical mass of consciousness that is bringing in a massive influx of high vibrational frequencies which are allowing us to see what a lie is and what is true. Many people are gathering around the world forming alliances with the purpose of creating sovereign societies where people can live together in peace with access to free energy, organic food, free or very affordable healthcare and honor the earth by living sustainably – the more of us who come together to create conscious societies around the world, the more we can truly change the world.

If people don’t choose to support the current system which is run by corporations, then how can corporations maintain their control over us? If we don’t purchase and consume products that are manufactured by corporations, such as non-organic meat, GMO vegetables, pharmaceutical drugs, chemical cleaners, manufactured cigarettes, etc., then the tower of corporate greed will eventually crumble. If we don’t agree to live in a society that is regulated by the government which is really under corporate control, then corporations will no longer be able to control us.

What would it take for everyone to find the courage to walk away from a life that is bringing us further and further away from our true nature, which is, to be compassionate and conscious?

I have had many people seek me out for help, because they don’t know how to connect with their higher self, they are depressed, hopeless, angry, confused, traumatized, physically ill, suicidal, homicidal, powerless, lonely, afraid, feel totally unloved or not good enough. Where do all these conditions stem from? If the world we lived in was fully conscious with everyone working towards a common goal which supported the value of honoring all beings great and small and the planet, then none of the aforementioned conditions would exist. These symptoms are in no way a reflection that we as a people are screwed up and have to fix ourselves so that everyone around us can be more comfortable – they are symptoms of a world that has forgotten its original blueprint. All of us have an imprint of this blueprint in our consciousness. We are now remembering this template and are ready to reactivate it so that we can step out of the illusory matrix that we’ve been existing in which is not viable and never will be.

I will not tell you what you have to do to step out of the matrix, because each of us has a higher knowing that speaks to us in our own language. We are all part of this quantum soup, yet we also have our own signature which is beautifully unique. Each of us are playing an important role in the evolution of our planet like puzzle pieces in a bigger picture that we can’t yet see until we have put all the pieces together.

Some of us are already feeling the changes within us at a deep level as we are shifting into this new vibrational frequency. My husband came home one night and said to me out of the blue, “I don’t want to eat meat anymore.”

“Why? What’s happened?” I asked.

“I don’t know. It just doesn’t make any sense to put dead meat in my body; it’s making me sick.”

“What about fish?”

“No, I don’t even want to eat fish.”

I was quite surprised as my husband had always been an avid fisherman and loved catching fresh fish so he could bring it home for us to barbecue. It was clear that something big was shifting within him. Just two weeks later I also lost all desire to eat any meat except fish occasionally, but now I am losing desire for fish as well. This wasn’t anything planned for either of us, yet we both naturally lost our desires for meat. For me this signaled that our bodies had already shifted into a new higher frequency which wasn’t resonating with meat. I found these changes within us quite fascinating and liberating.

It may look totally different for you or other people though.

Perhaps those who have been vegetarians for many years feel that their bodies now require meat or something else?

No one can tell you what is right for you. We must all learn to trust our higher self - that wise part of us that knows all and has direct access to source. The more you are able to connect with your higher self the stronger it will get. It’s just like exercising; our muscles get stronger through regular use.

Let’s birth a new world together by stepping out of the old paradigm of control, fear and greed and moving into the new paradigm which embraces compassion for all beings - a world that honors the earth and all her inhabitants.

We all hold the keys to creating this world through our vision, intentions and actions. All we have to do is walk over to our doors and open them. What awaits us will be truly magnificent but we won’t know what this is unless we have the courage to do it.

But we can’t do all this without your support. For information on how to donate, see website: <www.balieye.org> or contact our office Jl. Pengembak 16, Blanjong, Sanur, Bali.

The Frugal Balinist *Low-cost indestructible shelving. To build the strongest shelves possible, ¿rst ¿nd a tukang batu (stonemason or bricklayer) who can do this kind of work. Decide on the width, height and number of individual shelves in accordance with the dimensions of what you’re going to store on the shelves.

Measure the distance between the Àoor and the ceiling, then divide this distance by the height of the tallest item you will be keeping on your shelves. Make the bottom two shelves taller to hold the larger, heavier items; upper shelves should be shorter to hold the smaller, lighter items and/or dangerous chemicals like herbicides, pesticides and cleaners so children cannot reach them. Shop around for the materials. No bolts, screws, bolts, gravel or sealant needed. Cut strips of Indonesian-style rebar (size besi 6 or besi 8) to the desired length and mesh them together using wire ties (bendrat). Place these sections of iron mesh inside wooden forms (kobongan) made of sections of cheap wood rafters or kayu usuk (5 cm X 7 cm X 4-m-long) and triplex 6 or 8 (plywood) that conform to your shelf dimensions before pouring concrete into the forms. This crisscrossing mesh inside the cement gives added stability for heavy load-bearing shelves. To make effective mortar, mix 1 part of cement to 3 or 4 parts of sand. Concrete will set in around 6 hours, gaining maximum strength in 28 days to give you rock solid shelves that will not sag and will hold up for years. Great for organizing your garage! Total cost labor and materials: Rp1,350,000 to Rp1,500,000 depending where you live in Bali.

*An ojek for every need. Bali’s game-changing Go-jek drivers, with their distinctive bright green jackets and matching helmets, provide transportation, courier documents, personal shopping, deliver take-away food from restaurants.

Experienced and trustworthy, drivers are equipped with smartphones with mobile banking apps, enabling them to work anytime, anywhere on the island. Geo-location algorithms locate the closest driver to minimize delivery times. They can deliver virtually anything that will ¿t on a motorcycle up to a maximum price of Rp1 million which they pay the business in advance and then get reimbursement from the customer on delivery. Once an order is reviewed and con¿rmed onscreen, a photo of the driver and his number are displayed with the option of SMS’ing him. Customers can top up with GO-JEK credit for cashless payments. Whereas a regular ojek driver may overcharge Rp150,000 for a one-off ride, a Go-jek will only charge Rp30,000. The GO-JEK application where you can check out the prices can be downloaded from www.go-jek. com/app on any iOS or Android device.

*Minitips. When eating in a local restaurant, order hot drinks like teh tawar (plain tea) and not tap water to make sure harmful bacteria has been eliminated; * Don’t even think about joining any time shares or holiday club schemes on Bali; fraud perpetrated by Westerners and Indonesians is common; * Membeli kucing dalam karung (“Buying a cat in a sack”) means acquiring something without knowing its true worth, i.e. don’t marry a man without getting to know him ¿rst or invest in a company without enough information to assess its value; * Have your children help prepare meals; if they’ve made it

themselves, they’re more likely to eat it. Even a toddler can add cherry tomatoes, olives or grapes to a salad bowl; * If take part in adventure activities, check ¿rst that the activity or the Bali-based operator is covered by your insurance policy (Sobek Bali and Bali Adventure Tours provide up to US$100,000 accident insurance coverage); * Made-inIndonesia coconut shell mosaic tile wall decoration are priced very competitively to imported conventional wall decorations; * menghémat to economize, cut down on expenses, save time and money, as in Untuk mengulurulur anggaran, anda harus menghémat. “In order to stretch your budget, you’ve got to cut corners.” * The life of disposable razor blades can be extended by running them backwards along your skin which keeps them straight, clean and dry; * Avoid buying clothes that require dry cleaning (check care instructions) or ignore instructions and wash them anyway; *The sign of a reputable taxi company is that their taxis can be booked by phone, from hotels or from inside the airport; * Very tough plastic cereal bags can be washed, saved and reused for storing leftovers; * fabric dryer sheets make good wipes to remove grime and soap scum from bathtubs, showers, tiles; also nestle them with stored clothing to make them smell fresher and help keep mice away; * People don’t realize how large an income they can have by being thrifty.

*Dropbox is a virtual ¿ling system where you can safely keep photos, videos or any large ¿les in as many different folders as you like and then share them with anyone – even if they don’t have a Dropbox account. Friends and family will get a noti¿cation when you upload something new. Save ¿les on your computer, then access them on your phone from anywhere in the world. Everything you keep in Dropbox is synced automatically to all your devices; * Instagram, particularly popular with teens, is able to instantly upload and share photos; *Vimeo is a great way to privately share high quality videos with any audience of your choice on computers, phones, tablets, and TVs; *Whatsapp app enables you to send photos and messages to anyone else on iPhone, BlackBerry, Nokia and Android devices. Communication is free with Wi Fi connection, so you can avoid roaming charges when you sms through your phone provider when you’re out of service area.

In addition to basic messaging, users are able to create groups, send each other unlimited images, video and audio media messages.

*Magic Bulb. This Japanese-made multifunction LED light is long-lasting and rechargeable. As with a normal light bulb, Magic Bulb can connect to any household medium (E26/E27) light socket, but has is its own internal rechargeable battery which will automatically recharge when the bulb is connected to a working power socket. The charging of the battery can be monitored through a LED charging indicator. This rechargeable battery allows a the Magic Bulb to offer uninterrupted light during a blackout or when the bulb is removed from the socket. Without power a fully charged Magic Bulb is able to provide 3 hours of light. Each Magic Bulb comes an extendable handle, allowing Magic Bulb to function as a portable handheld torch. Magic Bulb is must have technology for use in the home, in a power outage and when conducting outdoor activities. Available for Rp270,000 at Kopernik Tech Kiosk, Jl Raya Pengosekan, tel. 0361-977-233, open M-F 9 am-5 pm. *Not all supermarkets are equal. Hardy’s located in the “outlying” districts like Karangasem, Tabanan, Singaraja and Negara are considerably cheaper than Lotte Mart of Sanur and the various Carrefour of south Bali for food and general goods. Supermarkets in tourist areas are extremely overpriced;

for example, water at Coco’s in Nusa Dua is three times the price you pay anywhere else in Bali. Lotte Mart is great for food if you live close by and for big-ticket items like fridges, TVs, washing machines. If you borrow a Lotte business membership number from a friend or hotel, you can get even bigger wholesale price reductions. Delta Dewata on Jl. Andong in Ubud has a decent blending of local and imported brands.

As always, the best place to shop for the cheapest, freshest and highest quality food are the local markets from 7 am to 9 am. After awhile the vendors get to know you and give you discounts, extra fruit and two-for-the-price-of-one deals.

*Cheap airport transport. Finally in September Bali’s 56-kmlong Trans-Sabargita public bus system added Corridor #8, its newest route connecting Tabanan and Ngurah Rai Airport.

The stops are as follows: Tabanan’s Pesiapan Bus Terminal, Mengwi Terminal, Kapal, Sempidi, Kargo Terminal (near Ubeng), Jl. Soputan, Jl. Iman Bonjol, Sunset Road and Ngurah Rai Airport. The entire route from end to end costs only Rp7500 to Rp10,500. Alternatively, use Uber, but you’ll need to use the airport’s free Wi Fi to direct your Uber driver by text to a speci¿ed location at airport. If you just have carry-on, call Go-jek.

*Never-ending free news and learning. On the New York Times website (www.nytimes.com), if you subscribe online to the daily “New York Times Direct” (22 articles) and “nytnow” newsletter (18 articles), you’ll get a total of 40 articles, photos, maps and graphics on U.S. and world news, editor’s picks, arts, business, technology, sports and opinion without having to pay to get past the wall. The clever, highly informed and current NYT Learning Network (learning.blogs.nytimes.com) blog publishes free Times resources for frequently taught subjects, interesting articles about young people, short lessons on important or compelling news stories, interactive news quizzes, activity sheets, “What’s Going On in This Picture?” visual literacy texts and a daily vocabulary-building “Word of the Day” for students. If you’re blocked, just insert the address in your browser’s address bar and try again.

*Indonesia’s gold standards. Stick to known brands that have good reputations and give warranties. For refrigerators LG, Sharp, Polytron; electrical equipment Broco; airconditioners Daikin, Toshiba, Panasonic, Mitsubishi; water heaters Ariston, Bosch; gas stoves Modena, Rinai; generators Lister, Perkins, Cummings; TVs Sony; bathroom equipment Toto, Standard; water pumps Grundfos. All of these makes are tried and tested, not that expensive (except for Grundfos) and spare parts are reasonably priced and widely available.

As an indicator of their high quality, all of these brands have guarantees of 1, 2, 3 and 5 years.
