			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The world is chockfull of destinations that are all worthy of consideration when it’s time to make holiday plans. There are not many places, however, that can compare to a particular island in the Indonesian archipelago. Bali travel melds adventure, history and wonder into a single experience that is virtually certain to create memories to last a lifetime.</p>
<p>Located only a few hours away from Australia by plane, this unusual destination packs a great deal of fun into 5,632 square kilometers. Here holidaymakers will find weather that is perfect practically year round. With warm tropical temperatures ranging between 20 and 33 degrees Celsius no matter the time of year, visitors to Bali are often surprised to find sunny days dominate even in the thick of the rainy season.</p>
<p>When Bali travel is under consideration, potential holidaymakers will find these reasons tend to draw travellers from all over the world like moths to a flame:</p>
<p> * The outdoor splendour – Bali is famous for its breathtaking geography. The island is surrounded by warm turquoise waters that lap at white sandy beaches. From quiet lagoons just right for swimming and snorkeling to more “active” beaches that call to surfers and adventure sports lovers, the waters here are ideal for year round fun. Whilst the beaches are certainly a draw, they are not the only outdoor wonder that awaits those planning Bali travel. This island is also famous for its lush tropical forests, active volcanoes, tiered rice paddies and incredible lakes and waterfalls.<br /> * The history – Bali has a history that dates back thousands of years. Evidence of its most early inhabitants can be found in a variety of sites all over the island. From the temples in the Mount Agung complex to the wonderment of the Tanah Lot, visitors here will learn much about the peoples and cultures that have touched Bali throughout the ages. With its strong ties to the Hindu religion, holidaymakers will discover that many of the island’s most splendid outdoor attractions have also served as places connected deeply to religion through the ages.<br /> * The culture – Balinese culture is known for its distinct arts, form of dance and cuisine. Those who plan Bali travel will find themselves arriving on a island that is known the world over for its welcoming hospitality and unique traditions.<br /> * The adventures – Bali is one of the few places in the world where people can get up close and personal with gray monkeys, elephants and a variety of other tropical creatures all on a single vacation. If fauna doesn’t appeal, those on Bali tours will find that plenty of other adventures await. Bali tours can unlock adventures that are found nowhere else in the world. From Odyssey Submarine trips that take holidaymakers into the depths that surround the island to a trip to the 11th century Elephant Cave, there is no shortage of opportunities to do and see things that cannot be experienced anywhere else.</p>
<p>When an experience like nothing else is desired, Bali travel will deliver. Combining adventure, wonder and history, this legendary island offers holidaymakers an opportunity to explore paradise on earth.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tea and coffee are both drinks which inspire passion. More than just simple beverages, tea and coffee are part of a cultural phenomenon filled with social meaning and ritual. They both have fairly long, extensive histories—here’s a short look at them.</p>
<p>As old time legends have it, the origins of coffee can be traced to Ethiopia, where it grows copiously, and in the wild. Shepherds were apparently the first to discover its stimulating effects after their flock nibbled on some and couldn’t settle down for the night. Another ancient tale tells of a man who was shipped out to the desert to starve to death. In the desert, the man could only find the coffee plant, so he took chance, boiled it and lived. He then made it to the neighboring town of Mocha; the locals there thought his survival was a miracle.</p>
<p>According to researchers, coffee made its first appearance as a beverage in 1000 AD. Sufi monks, in Yemen, in the south of Arabia, supposedly made and drank coffee in their monasteries. Coffee was first brought to Yemen and Egypt through Ethiopia. The Arabians are the ones that get credit for making coffee, roasting it and brewing it, as we know it today. Coffee spread from the Middle East to the North of Africa by the middle of the fifteenth century. It made its way to Europe first through Italy; from there it went to Indonesia and soon enough it arrived in the Americas.</p>
<p>The Arabians weren’t keen to share their precious coffee beans; so in order to make sure no one else could grow them, they cooked or boiled the beans, making them infertile. However, according to one tale, an Indian by the name of Baba Budan smuggled out some fertile beans by taping them to his belly. This way, coffee arrived in Venice and spread all around Europe.</p>
<p>The Dutch began growing their own coffee plants and cultivating the beans in 1616 despite the Arab prohibition on exporting beans.  Dutch coffee was thus taken to Java and Ceylon. According to historians, by the early 1700’s Indonesian coffee was being drunk by Dutchmen and women by the cupful.</p>
<p>Today, coffee is ubiquitous. You really can’t go anywhere without seeing it. The art of brewing the perfect cup is something that is prided by many.</p>
<p>Tea has a long and varied history too. It can be traced back to ancient China. The emperor Shen Nung is credited with discovering tea about 5,000 years ago. As a wise and learned man, the emperor passed an edict that all water should be boiled before it was drank. One day, while the emperor and his court were traveling, they stopped for some water. The servants set up the pot to boil it and some dried leaves from a bush fell into it, making tea. The emperor, always inquisitive, tasted the new concoction and was delighted. This was the birth of tea.</p>
<p>Tea became a staple in China. It became so entrenched in Chinese daily life that Lu Yu wrote a guide book about the beverage codifying cultivation methods and drinking traditions. The book became a classic amongst Chinese society.</p>
<p>The Japanese weren’t introduced to the beverage until the priest Yeisei brought it back to his homeland from China some years later. After that tea was big in Japan.</p>
<p>Europe came to know tea by way of a Portuguese priest who brought the drink back by way of the East in 1560. Since then tea has become very popular.</p>

<p><strong>Saveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>The best food publication out there</strong></p>
<p>This is by far the best food mag published. I have subscribed to it for years and it has never changed in it&#8217;s excellence. The articles are interesting human interest stories as well as food stories. The recipes they offer actually work!</p>
<p><strong>BuyingSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Love Cooking</strong></p>
<p>This is the second year that I purchased this magazine for a friend. He loves to cook and enjoys the recipes that come from Saveur.</p>
<p><strong>CheapSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Great magazine, horrible service</strong></p>
<p>Lets start by saying I love cooking and I love food. So it should be a win? Well, if the magazine ever actually came it might be. The first year I had a subscription only one issue didn&#8217;t show. That was ok. The second year? Well I&#8217;ve now gotten *2 issues* in 8 months!!! where are the rest? It&#8217;s easy to contact Saveur but its hard to get an actual response! After complaining the first time about various issues they apologized profusely and offered free extra issues (an extended subscription)- fine with me. But then I haven&#8217;t gotten a new issue since! I contacted SAVEUR and they said THEY RAN OUT OF ISSUES! Don&#8217;t bother with a subscription, or with the magazine, because they probably won&#8217;t bother to send it to you anyway!</p>
<p><strong>CheapestSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>in depth coverage on a few foods</strong></p>
<p>My first copy covered a wonderfully in depth section on lamb. After that there was little to recommend it. I hope for many ideas from a cooking magazine and will hope that future issues give me more to work with.</p>
<p><strong>DiscountSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Bang for buck</strong></p>
<p>I subscribed to this magazine because I read about it on a blog and there was a deep discount for a subscription. I had never even picked one up before. My first issue arrived a couple of days ago, and I must say that I am really enjoying it and look forward to future issues. I was a little concerned at first that there were too many ads, but the content was interesting, and the photography is beautiful. <br />I believe that I will end up reading pretty much the entire magazine &#8212; not flip through and put it aside. It will take several issues before I know whether I would pay full price for a subscription.</p>
<p><strong>SaveSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Saveur needs to work on customer service.</strong></p>
<p>Love this magazine. The consistent problem I have with this magazine subscription is&#8230;..they need to work on their customer satisfaction more. Have sent in several requests over the last 3 years&#8230;&#8230;.several times I have received my magazine damaged due to the shipping process and moisture from weather. Why do other magazines protect their mailed out issues to customers with plastic sleeves or a paper protector and this magazine refuses to do the same ? At 2 times in the last 2 years, I have called to request a back issue and they simply never have them. Never. I mistakenly left last months magazine on an airplane and they don&#8217;t even have an issue from last month. The customer service seems to be lacking regarding what would seem to be understandable requests. I get several magazines a month and this is the only subscription I have problems with.</p>
<p><strong>Low PriceSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Foreign food, travel and international recipes</strong></p>
<p>I bought this magazine several times at the store and then decided to buy a subscription. I mailed my subscription check in mid-late-December and I had already bought the November and December magazines in the store; they promptly sent me November and December and I am waiting to see when they cancel my subscription &#8230; </p>
<p>If you like to travel this magazine is really for you, if you are like me and like to stay home and cook there is probably one recipe each issue that I am interested in. There was a wonderful spatzle recipe and terrific canapes, a simple &#8220;real alfredo&#8221; but being that I live in rural America, many of their recipes don&#8217;t use ingredients that I can readily buy and I am probably not going to, or at least have not, ordered away for ingredients that I might try using once, although they do have vendors who sell unusual ingredients listed. I do appreciate interesting ideas for our family gatherings such as in the November 2008 issue they had recipes from Laos and had a recipe for a custard baked in a squash; I will try that this fall when I have so much winter squash I will be looking for new interesting ways to use them &#8230; </p>
<p>One last bit that I like is the lay out of the magazine, they list all the recipes in the front and then in the back they list all the unusual ingredients and vendors in the &#8220;Pantry&#8221; and then they list the recipes again by category; that is nice when your preparing for a family gathering and you are in charge of appetizers or side dishes and you can just breeze through the back issues and find the recipes people might enjoy. </p>
<p>I started writing this feeling cool on Saveur but I realize there is more in it than I might be appreciating. </p>
<p>I did contact the magazine company and they did agree that they received my check in mid-December and that they sent me November and December after that. I explained that I had already bought those issues, and they agreed to give me 3 more months; I hate doing that because I know all paper businesses are hurting with readership down and the economy in the state that it is &#8230; but I felt I needed to, to be satisfied with my subscription. </p>
<p>October 2009 update: I had called them a couple months ago, they agreed to give me a full subscription, rather than counting the back-dated months that they sent upon arrival of my mid-December check; since then I did not receive October&#8217;s issue and I received November&#8217;s issue as a &#8220;gift&#8221; since they said my subscription ran out &#8211; I am too fed up to deal with them again and they have lost a customer. Although the November issue had good Kimchee recipes &#8230; </p>
<p>November 2009 update: still no more issues -</p>
<p><strong>Lowest PriceSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Great Magazine, a little gem!</strong></p>
<p>I came across Saveur by accident, and initially I just flipped through it at the office, mostly for 5-10 seconds, and then put it down and went on with work. <br />Recently, I was back into cooking and reading about the culinary world big time, and viola, a stack of Saveur is still sitting there at the corner, piling up. </p>
<p>I gave it a thorough look through, and I was amazed how I have missed this little gem for such a long time, it has information about interesting ingredients, stories, histories, and more. </p>
<p>I definitely enjoyed the article on Salmon, and the reference by someone here about it being like the National Geographic for food, is definitely not too far off. </p>
<p>If you are like me, and like to know about things and not just looking to find recipes, this magazine will wow you. </p>
<p>Someone else said that it encourages travel, and I think that should be the way it is. </p>
<p>Think about it, even if you have the recipe for this interesting dish that you want to try, and lets say you found the ingredients, how do you know if it is going to be authentic? </p>
<p>I love travel and this magazine does adds my determination to go travel.</p>
<p><strong>Shop ForSaveur (1-year)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Compromisingly Unique</strong></p>
<p>Saveur got a new Editor-in-Chief in 2006, when Colman Andrews (one of the original founding crew from the magazine&#8217;s inception) stepped down after long-running battles with the new corporate ownership (World Publications out of Winter Park Florida.) Andrews was a curmudgeon, and a brilliant iconoclast. For years, he refused to run an image of a turkey on the cover of the November issue, to the displeasure of the newsstand sales dept. He was replaced by James Oseland, a contributor and Associate Editor at the magazine (one of his first acts was to run a picture of a turkey on the cover of the November issue &#8211; get it?) Saveur has fallen on tough times. Since most ad budgets for the food category are gobbled up by Rachel Ray, Gourmet, BonAppetit, Food and Wine and the like, Saveur is left with table scraps, and issues are skinny. Photography and art direction have always been first rate, and Oseland builds on this tradition with his passion for food photos that border on pornography, they are so luscious) But a shift in focus from Andrews&#8217; euro-centric vision to Oseland&#8217;s more pan-asian outlook (he is the author of an excellent book on Indonesian cuisine, &#8220;Spice Islands&#8221;) leaves something in translation as these themes don&#8217;t resonate as heartily with Saveur&#8217;s core audience. But he does seem to be attracting some younger, more urban readers. (Somehow, images of sweaty, grimy cooks behind-the-scene in a Bombay restaurant doesn&#8217;t stir my soul for Indian food, though.) There is one bright spot &#8211; a greater focus on Asia has lightened up Saveur&#8217;s previous artery-clogging fare. The editorial staff write for themselves mainly, so if you share their vision, then you&#8217;ll love Saveur. (A special issue in 2007 was all about Chicago for instance, which happens to be Oseland&#8217;s home town.) And other reviewers are spot-on about the recipes &#8211; if you don&#8217;t live in NYC, you&#8217;ll have trouble handily finding ingredients such as chicken feet, although they do reference websites for you to source things via mail-order. Wine coverage since Andrews left is scattershot and cursory &#8211; Oseland isn&#8217;t a wine drinker, and wine stories compete for precious editorial space in these lean times for magazine advertising. I give Saveur high marks for uniqueness. If you do subscribe, pair Saveur&#8217;s mineral, flinty undertones with a more practical, off-dry recipe holder such as Everyday with Rachel Ray or Southern Living.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Indonesia is the world&#8217;s biggest archipelago, containing thousands of islands. The country is a collection of many different local places of interest. Tourism in Indonesia is highly developed, including a wide range of tourist destinations, and excellent <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.swiss-belhotel.com/">luxury hotels</a> and hotel packages.</p>
<p>The selection of places to visit is vast, including many fascinating and unique sites and areas of interest. Indonesia is a big place, and the tourist is confronted with infinite possibilities of combinations of places to see and things to do.</p>
<p>This is a selection of five of the best and most dazzling of Indonesia&#8217;s tourist paradises:</p>
<p><strong>Java<br /></strong></p>
<p>Java is the main island of Indonesia, in terms of population and development. It&#8217;s also one of the most unusual tourist destinations in the world. There are some extraordinary things to see in Java:</p>
<p>Borobodur Temple, the ancient Buddhist Mahayana monument. This is one of the great classics of Buddhist art, with no less than 504 Buddha statues and 2,672 relief panels.</p>
<p>Prambanan Temple, the Hindu Temple near Yogyakarta, a masterpiece of Hindu workmanship 47 metres tall, the equal of its Indian equivalents.</p>
<p>At the western tip of Java is the volcano Anak Krakatau, the &#8220;Child of Krakatoa&#8221;.</p>
<p><strong>Sumatra<br /></strong></p>
<p>Sumatra is Indonesia&#8217;s big western island. It&#8217;s a very diverse place with many different environments and a priceless wildlife heritage which trying hard to survive the strain of modern times. Sumatra retains much of its ancient heritage and culture. It&#8217;s common to see ancient ways of life and fishing boats next to new four wheel drives and sleek modern power boats.</p>
<p><strong>Bali<br /></strong></p>
<p>Bali, one of the world&#8217;s legendary tourist destinations, is the global traveler&#8217;s classic must see destination. <a rel="nofollow" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/article_exit_link');" href="http://www.swiss-belhotel.com/">Bali resorts</a> are famous for their high quality, particularly in the Nusa Dua and Jimbaran areas of the island.</p>
<p>People don&#8217;t just &#8220;like&#8221; Bali, they love it. Each beach and resort has its own admirers, and the regular visitors come back many times. Bali&#8217;s reputation is based on a mix of its natural beauty, the fabulous holiday lifestyle, and a personal affinity. Everyone has &#8220;their&#8221; personal Bali. It&#8217;s one of the few places in the world where tourists care as much as locals about preserving the natural charm of the region.</p>
<p><strong>Kalimantan<br /></strong></p>
<p>Kalimantan, formerly known as Borneo, is the big northern island, a wild area famous in colonial times for its wild jungles and their fierce inhabitants, the Dayaks. This is a truly incredible, magical place. You can see orangutans in their natural environment, go on river cruises up wild rivers, trek through one of the world&#8217;s great jungles, and see a real traditional longhouse and the famous Dayak dragon.</p>
<p><strong>Sulawesi<br /></strong></p>
<p>Sulawesi is the large, island with four big peninsulas east of Kalimantan. The island is divided into North Sulawesi and South Sulawesi. This island is famous for its diving experiences. Sulawesi has a range of marine environments, including beautiful beaches. Inland, it has fabulous Lake Linow, and an active volcano, Mt. Soputan.</p>
<p>Indonesian holidays combine all the best elements of tourism; Excitement, exotic places, and real luxury.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The typical Asmat woodcarving is one of Indonesian cultural wealth that already has a name for foreign tourists. The characteristics of the Asmat carving are a unique pattern and naturalist. From the patterns, you can see the complexity of how to make it. Thus, they become a valuable carving work.</p>
<p>In terms of the model, Asmat carving is very diverse, ranging from human statues, boats, panels, shields, drums, kaswari egg up the pole. Asmat usually adopt the experience and the everyday environment as their carving patterns, such as trees, boats, animals, people who are boating, people who are hunting, and many more.</p>
<p>Carving is a living tradition and a ritual that is closely associated with the spirituality of life and respect for ancestors. When the Asmat carve, they do not just make pattern on wood, but they also flow a spirituality of life.</p>
<p>Asmat sculpture is naturalist because the model used in their carving is the creatures like birds, fish, frogs, trees, lizards or man. The great thing about Asmat carving is that Asmat community consists of 12 sub-ethnic groups, and each has a special characteristic in his art. They also use different wood.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the price of Asmat woodcarving is expensive. Distances and the difficulty of transportation are the reasons why they can be so expensive. However, every work of Asmat sculpture is unique and does not have similarity with others. Indeed, Asmat do not produce carving with the same pattern in a large scale.</p>
<p>For the lovers of ethnic-style carving, Asmat carving is one option for home decoration. But, be wary and careful when buying Asmat carvings on the market because many people who are not responsible duplicate their carvings.</p>
