Bali Trash Scavenger Returns $30,000 in Jewelry Thrown Out with the Trash
Amidst the negative image of Bali and suggestion of w i d e s p r e a d dishonesty, a young scavenger who makes his living from sorting through other people garbage at the local rubbish tip has made the news and given renewed hope in the basic decency that remains the predominant characteristic of the people who make the Island of Bali their home. As reported by The Jakarta Post, the young scavenger named Ahmad discovered three boxes of gold in the back of a garbage truck in Denpasar, Bali. Bedazzled by his find easily worth years of his meager income, he immediately contacted his Balinese boss, Made Raka, to seek assistance in making sure the gold found its way back to its rightful owner. continue to page 9

a nod to the swarm of lawmakers below in the Fifth Republic's lower house. Six volunteer beekeepers from among the National Assembly staff will tend the hives, which are nestled together on a raised platform on the roof of a rear palace building. Despite their enviable Parisian vista, the bees will be packed tightly into their windowless homes, with each of the hives housing up to 50,000 bees in the summer months, a population that will drop to 15,000 in the winter. Left-wing lawmaker L a u r e n c e Dumont said estimated annual honey production should fill around 800 pots a year which would be g i v e n t o schoolchildren on educational visits or charities. The farm ministry is working to revive beekeeping and r e d u c e a dependence on imported honey, and Paris already sports bee hives atop other prestigious buildings including the Garnier Opera and the swanky Tour d'Argent leftbank restaurant.

The Bali Daily (The Jakarta Post) says the provincial government of Bali is planning to draft a strategic master plan on tourism development. Bali's governor Made Mangku Pastika said: We're eager to improve the tourism sector and build linkages with other sectors including agriculture. Our priority program is drafting a strategic master plan that manages the tourism sector. The Governor is seeking input from all tourism stakeholders, including the Indonesian Tourism Industry Association (GIPI), in drafting the Master Plan. The plan is expected to deal with steps to preserve Bali's agricultural character on an island where tourism has supplanted farming to become the dominant force in the economy. Tourism is now calculated to comprise 66%
has a different economic structure from other provinces in Indonesia. We rely on tourism as the leading sector. Suggesting that controls are lacking, Pastika said that tourism needs to be controlled in order to realize sustainable d e v e l o p m e n t . M o r e o v e r, accommodation developers are refusing to incorporate Balinese architectural accents in their finished buildings. Adding: Once, I was invited to a new hotel facility in Kuta. I really deplored that the hotel didn't adopt Balinese architecture and I spoke to the management about the issue directly. We have to realize that Balinese architecture is a must for all investment on the island. The proposed Master Plan will also address means to control the current accommodation boom in Bali that is resulting in unhealthy price competition. Planners will also be asked
to incorporate new business sectors in the Master Plan, such as retirement tourism, sports tourism and cruise tourism. Some sources are expressing pessimism, doubting that any final Master Plan will not be embraced by the regencies and metropolitan areas of Bali. Efforts by the governor to introduce an island-wide zoning law and a moratorium on new hotel building have been zealously resisted by the Island's Regents and Mayors who are unprepared to release control of their lucrative right to issue easements and licenses. www.balidiscovery.com

Bali Government Preparing to Locally Collect Manpower Training Fee
The provincial government of Bali is targeting an income of Rp. 20 billion (US$2 million) in 2013 from official retribution fees collected for registered foreign workers in Bali. Quoted by the State News Agency Antara, the chief of the Bali Manpower and Transmigration Office, I Gusti Ngurah Agung Sudarsana, said, The only remaining problem is the implementation of the retribution to be paid for extending foreign work permits (IMTA) in our region.

In the past the IMTA was charged on a national level from Jakarta, a power that is now in the process of devolving to the provinces. Regulations on the national level stop IMTA retributions on December 2012, but provinces can only begin to collect these fees of US$100 a month when the empowering regulations have been put in place on a provincial level. www.balidiscovery.com

Then Bartel's gimme in the goalsquare - resulting from a push in the back from Nathan Grima snatched the four points for Geelong.

The Hawks watched their lead diminish at each break, from 28 after the first term to 26 at the half then 19 going into the final period, but a true challenge from the Eagles never came.
In fact Hawthorn kicked its secondhighest fourth-quarter score ever, racking up a mammoth 8.3 in the home stretch, to finish victorious 23.10 (148) to 15.8 (98). Star forward Lance Franklin shook off some previous ordinary form at the venue by booting five goals while Cyril Rioli and Luke Breust had four each as the Hawks had their way. "Our forward line functioned really well today with Haley [David Hale] popping up and kicking a few and Luke Breust and Rioli, so it was a pretty potent forward line," Franklin told Grandstand.

impact he did was an unbelievable effort and sets the example for the younger players coming through." Dean Cox was monstrous in the ruck for West Coast and Chris Masten had 33 touches at the top of the column for the Eagles. Things get no easier for the 2-0 Hawks, who face Collingwood next Sunday at the MCG before clashes with Fremantle, North Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney in the weeks that follow. But Franklin said four points on the road will do amazing things for Hawthorn's self-belief going into an important stretch of the fixture. "We haven't won over here in Western Australia for a number of years so it's massive for our confidence to win," he said. "The next six weeks are going to be massive for us in terms of the ladder so we know we've got Collingwood this week then we'll just see how we go from there."

Firstly, my husband travels for work and has for a while, a frequent mobile number started appearing on my husband's mobile. There were a few text messages and phone calls but only enough to make me wonder who it was. He never came home for Christmas but instead travelled away with friends on a fishing trip. He continually kept telling me that the mobile number was a mates girlfriend and he had to ring it to get in contact with the mate cause he didn't have a mobile. That was proven to be a lie when photos of him over the Christmas / New Year period emerged of him and her together. To this day he still states they are only friends but very rarely telephones, texts or emails me, unless it is to do with nothing of a personal nature and only business related. He also has an email account on his laptop that I do not have access to and a secret facebook account. He has also travelled over to visit her on what appears to be a monthly basis. That is only a fraction of the story but gives the general idea of my problem. I believe they are more than just friends and he is lying. When I ask what is going on with them he now says I cannot talk
Dear Mey, My goodness dear, do you need him to take out a banner ad? Of course he's having an affair. How you talk to him doesn't really matter. By the sounds of it you'll be lucky just to get him on the phone. When he does finally answer I suggest cutting to the chase. Don't bother to chit chat about the weather. Just say: I know you are having an affair and I am going to leave you. If you value our marriage at all you will return home to 'fess up and try to sort this mess out now. My guess is you will get a fair indication of how much he values the marriage by the speed with which he does - or doesn't - return home. Martha

But goals to Magpies Ben Sinclair, Elliott and Blair in the first eight minutes of the last term gave Collingwood a 10point lead. And despite Garlett responding with a sensational snap from outside 50m to narrow the gap to less than a kick, they never gave up the lead. Heath Shaw, Dane Swan, Sidebottom, Pendlebury and recruit Sam Dwyer were all important midfield contributors for the Magpies.

The Troggs
The Troggs were an English rock band from the 1960s that had a number of hits in the UK and the US. Their most famous songs include the Hot 100 chart topper "Wild Thing", "With a Girl Like You", and "Love Is All Around". "Wild Thing" is ranked #257 on the Rolling Stone magazine's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time and was an influence on garage rock and punk rock.Fronted by Reg Presley, the Troggs were from the town of Andover in southern England and were originally called the Troglodytes. Three of the Troggs' recordings, "Wild Thing", "With a Girl Like You", and "Love Is All Around", each sold over one million copies and were awarded gold discs.[5] History The Troggs formed in 1964, Reg Presley (Lead vocals), Chris Britton (Lead guitar), Pete Staples (Bass guitar) and Ronnie Bond (Drums). They were signed by Larry Page, manager of the Kinks, in 1965. They recorded on Page's Page One Records, and Page also leased them to CBS for debut single "Lost Girl". Their most famous hit was the single "Wild Thing" (written by Chip Taylor) (the song on the b-side of the single depended on the country where it was sold), which with the help of television exposure on Thank Your Lucky Stars reached number 2 in the UK (c/w Reg Presley's song 'From Home') and number 1 in the United States in July 1966. Its combination of a simple heavy guitar riff and flirtatious lyrics helped it to quickly become a garage rock standard. It was recorded in one complete take (take two) at Olympic Studios in London, with Keith Grant engineering. Because of a dispute over US distribution rights, "Wild Thing" was released (along with the first album of the same name) on two labels: Fontana and Atco. The band's success in the US was also limited by not touring there until 1968. They also had a number of other hits, including "With a Girl Like You" (a UK number 1 in July 1966, US number 29), "I Can't Control Myself" (a UK number 2 in September 1966; their first UK single release on the Page One label, POF 001; this was also their second and final dual-label release in the US, with Fontana retaining the rights to all subsequent releases), "Anyway That You Want Me" (UK number 10 in December 1966), all at Olympic Studios, " Give It To Me" (UK No.12 1967), "Night of the Long Grass" (UK number 17 in May 1967), "Love Is All Around" (UK number 5 in November 1967 and US number 7 in May 1968) plus "Hi Hi Hazel" (UK No.42, 1967) . With chart success later eluding the band, they split up in March 1969. Ronnie Bond was the first to release a solo record, with the "Anything for You" single in March 1969, followed in April by Reg Presley with "Lucinda Lee". Chris Britton released a solo album, As I Am, the same year. The band reformed later that year, with former Plastic Penny bassist Tony Murray replacing Staples, and in 1974, after a spell on Pye Records, in an attempt to recreate their 1960s successes, the Troggs re-united with Larry Page, now running Penny Farthing Records. The resulting cover version of the Beach Boys hit "Good Vibrations" did not capture the public's imagination. A reggae version of "Wild Thing" also failed to chart. The band found a sympathetic ear at French label New Rose in the 1980s, the label releasing 1982's Black Bottom LP and 1990's AU. The band attempted to capitalize on this new exposure with a couple of bizarre collaborations on new versions of "Wild Thing". In 1992 they teamed up with actor Oliver Reed and snooker player Alex Higgins, with another version the following year featuring Wolf from the TV show Gladiators, which actually reached number 69 in the UK Singles Chart. In 1994 Wet Wet Wet's cover of "Love Is All Around" was #1 in the UK for 15 weeks, netting Presley a handsome royalty. The band's original drummer, Ronnie Bond, died on 13 November 1992. Dave Wright, another founding member, died on 10 October 2008. In January 2012, after over 40 years of touring, Reg Presley retired due to lung cancer, apparently ending the Troggs. However, the remaining members, Chris Britton (guitar), Pete Lucas (bass) and Dave Maggs (drums), plan to continue the Troggs and are going back on the road. They are joined by special guest Chris Allen on lead vocals, who has been in the Denny Laine Band, the Commitments and part time with the Animals. Reg Presley died on 4 February 2013 at age 71.

Canterbury skipper Michael Ennis is urging Bulldogs fans not to go over the top when Sonny Bill Williams runs out against his former NRL team for Sydney Roosters on Friday.
Ennis says Williams will be treated the same as any other opponent. "I wasn't here so I can't comment on what the fans are feeling, but our focus is about winning the game and not Sonny Bill," he said. "He is a great player but the Roosters have a lot of those in their side." Prop Aiden Tolman echoed Ennis thoughts but says stopping Williams is vital to beating the Roosters. "It's a game of footy and anything that happens should happen on the field," he said. "Hopefully our fans can go out there and support us in the right way. No doubt we will be focusing on Sonny Bill in our preparation to the game. He features heavily on their attack up the middle and what they're trying to do."

A try to winger Sandor Earl kept the Raiders in the But the Raiders were all but finished, with a hunt, making it a four-point ballgame with 14 minutes to try to winger Edrick Lee in the 45th minute play. The fight-back then culminated three minutes from the final siren when Raiders centre Jarrod Croker converted his own try to steal a two-point win. It was the icing on the cake for Croker, who was celebrating his 100th game for the Green Machine. "It's something you dream about. To finish off like that is a good thing," he said. "Obviously our try-line defence in the first-half - I think they were done there three times and scored every time ... we know that's not acceptable." Croker said it was important not to go down four times in the first five rounds. "We talked about that and we talked about making Canberra Stadium a fortress again. Two from two here is obviously a really big thing," he said. Raiders captain David Shillington heaped praise on Croker's performance. "It was his night and he scored the winning try and the winning goal - couldn't ask much more from him, such a great achievement for a 22 year old," he said. Roosters five-eighth James Maloney said his side were let down by their defence - an area that they pride themselves on. "It was all good in the first half but once one point was conceded we got very loose and started losing the ruck," he said. We fell away and it is something we will have to address - it's a disappointing end."

'With our new men's body wear space, we are forecasting weekly sales of nearly 3,000 pairs of underwear. 'Men have become much more fashion conscious in their choice of underwear and are looking for details and distinctive features such as contrasting belts, mix of texture in the materials used, patterns and even devices to enhance their natural shape.'

At Kogarah Oval, the Dragons made it back-to-back wins after losing their first three games of the season.
Newcastle winger Akuila Uate crossed with 30 seconds remaining, but Knights captain Kurt Gidley missed the conversion, meaning there was to be no last minute heroics for the away side. Brett Morris went over for the Dragons in the 13th minute for the only four-pointer of the first half. The Dragons took a 9-0 lead into the break after a Jamie Soward field goal on the stroke of half-time. Steve Price's men then consolidated through Jason Nightingale and Tyson Frizell before leaking tries to Darius Boyd, Timana Tahu and Uate as the Knights closed the gap. Adding to the Knights' woes

"They're a good side and we had to aim up in defence today and I think we did and that's why we won the game." Dragons hooker Mitch Rein said his side benefited from "getting the monkey off its back" with a win against the Sharks in round 4. "It's definitely a good feeling - last week felt really good ... we just wanted to back it up with a win," he said. "The media has been into us a bit but we knew we could do it with the roster and we know we can really give the competition a crack." The victory means Steve Price remains undefeated in three outings against Wayne Bennett - his former boss at the Dragons.

The police stopped the car which was also carrying an Italian couple with three young children because it looked weighed down. Officers were suspicious after the occupants became anxious, and uncovered the stash of 12 ingots under the floor of the vehicle.

All Too Hard, a winner of three Group Ones including the Caulfield Guineas, was bought for $1,025,000 in 2011 and sold last year to Vinery Stud in a deal worth more than $25 million. Former top jockey Simon Marshall, now BC3 sales manager, said the colt would not be rushed onto the racetrack. "We know how good Belle Couture's going and it is just great to get the full set with this colt," he said.
