BALI THE RIGHT WAY

G'day again folks and welcome to the Kuta Weekly Bali's Premier
Weekly Newspaper We thank all our loyal readers and especially
our loyal sponsors to the paper and will make an undertaking that
we will continue to present everyone with the best weekly
newspaper in Bali. I have it on good authority that the powers that
be at The Kuta Town houses have just finished installing the big
screen for the footy Grand Final in a few weeks and Holy Hobbs of
aliasj@kutaweekly.com
Hell you gotta see the size of this.It is an exact copy of the one on
Bemo Corner that lights up the night. I'm not talking about a piddly arse LCD or a projector, or a 42 flatty,
I'm talking about the biggest Mutha of a television that has ever been installed in a hotel in Bali or South
East Asia. This thing is huge and will make the action on the day, about as close as you could possibly get to
being at the game itself. They have installed a brand new sound and public address system that would rival
any super club unit, including all BOSE equipment, and again I can safely say that there isn't anything that
will come close to this at any hotel or sporting venue in South East Asia. The day is shaping up to be a great
shin dig and I implore you to get in quick and grab a pre sale ticket at the reduced price. We are all looking
forward to a good game on the day with plenty of food and a few cold ones with friends. Check out the
advert on page 12 & 13.
Moving along, this week brings me to write about one of those sticky situations that happens all over the
world, but because it happens in Bali, first time travellers think it's the worst most heinous crime that could
ever happen to someone while on the island of the gods, when in reality, it happens in every big city and
even more so when we talk about underdeveloped places or third world countries. There is no difference,
however, the difference comes into play when the police actually catch a snatcher and take them to the
local station for processing. That's right folks, it's about the dreaded bag snatcher. I don't think there could
possibly be a lower class of criminal, if they where classed and offer and example, if you are caught in
Australia it is all documented as far as your crime goes, you are finger printed and everything that the plod
find on you that is stolen is photographed as evidence and a case is made to present to the magistrate to get
you charged and convicted. Sounds easy and the way things should work. The difference is that when the
bad guy is caught here, the evidence is kept until the court has been faced by the police and the criminal so
the tourists don't get to have their mobile phone, credit cards, purse with passport etc etc back until then
Do you see how this is heading now ?? Because the traveller simple can't go without their belongings,
the case will not go to court and the little snatcher
bastard gets to roll straight out the door and so starts the
circle again. Unfortunately as this is the way things are
done here, that is that, and it isn't about to change for the
280 million people that live here and call the
archipelago home as they must adhere to the same rules.
At the end of the day if you are out and about and
carrying your entire booty with you, then you need to be
really, really careful.

Girlfriend makes boyfriend wear humiliating T-shirt

while on holiday
A possessive girlfriend
made her partner of six
y e a r s w e a r a T- s h i r t
covered in pictures of the
two of them together.
Abbie Bartlett, 20, had the
shirt custom-made for her
boyfriend Leon Connolly, 24.
It bears the uncompromising
message: 'I love my girlfriend
Abbie, I hate the girls in Ibiza, so
please stay away from me'.
Miss Bartlett told how she
produced the shirt as a surprise as
he was packing his bags to leave.
Pictures of Mr Connolly
wearing the T-shirt were then
posted online and received large
amounts of attention leading Miss
Bartlett to worry it could have the
opposite effect and attract girls
who 'like a challenge'.
But the couple, who have a
five-year-old daughter and live
together in Newcastle, have
laughed off the publicity and are
treating the incident as a joke.
Miss Bartlett said, 'When I
took it in to the printing shop and
explained what I wanted I swear
they must have thought I was a
psycho.
'Leon wasn't expecting it, I
had mentioned that I would make
him a t-shirt but didn't think I

actually would.
'He saw the funny side of it
because it is really just a joke, he
and I have a really similar sense of
humour.
'He ended up laughing
about it and even posed for
pictures wearing it.'
Abbie, a criminology student
at Northumbria University, said:
'Leon said he definitely will wear it
in Ibiza now because he's
practically famous, but I think it
might have the opposite effect.
'Now that everyone has
seen it online I think it might just
attract loads of girls... some girls

like a challenge.'
'I have absolutely no
reason to be jealous or
possessive because I know
Leon would never cheat on me.
'We met when we were
really young and have been
together ever since. I trust him
completely and we've been on
separate holidays before, that's
just how our relationship works,
we do our own thing.'
Mr Bartlett, who is in a
band called Good Friend and
works in a warehouse, left
Newcastle on three days ago for
a festival in Ireland and flies out
to Ibiza this Friday.
He said: 'At first I thought is
she serious? She wanted me to
wear it to all the big clubs like
Pacha etc.
'But now I get that it's a joke
I'm happy enough to go along with
it, that's just how our relationship is
it's just silly.
'People have been saying
that wearing the t-shirt might
attract girls, some girls will
definitely take it as some sort off
challenge.
'I just have to laugh about it,
Abbie is the only girl for me an we
both know that!'

0% of Bali's arrivals from Regional Sources

Bali by the Numbers:
January- July 2014 Foreign
Tourist Arrivals to Bali Up
16.69%
Total foreign arrivals to Bali
January July broke the 2 million
mark totaling 2,089.706 visitors - a
number 16.69% ahead of the same
period in 2013.
If arrivals maintain the
16.69% rate-of-growth through the
end of the year, Bali should finish the
year with a record 3.8 million foreign
visitors.
Australian visitors, after
domestic holidaymakers, continue
to be Bali's biggest source of
visitors. As the leading source of
foreign guests, Australian arrivals to
Bali have increased 17.8% year-onyear through the end of July,
passing the half-million mark in July.
Meanwhile, the surge in
Mainland Chinese visitors is
markedly changing the face of Bali
tourism. Now the second-largest

source of foreign travelers,

PRC holidaymakers have increased
45.66% for January-July 2014 when
compared to the same period in
2013. It is now within the realms of
possibility that Chinese visitors to
Bali might eclipse Australian visitors
within the period of one or two years
hence and become the largest
source of Bali visitors.
Malaysia is now the third
largest source of Bali visitors,
increasing 19.75% thus far in 2014
totaling 125,173.
How fast and how far the
great have fallen is the story of
Japan once unassailable as the
top producer of Bal's foreign visitors
now shrunk to fourth place. Japan
declined 2.18% year-on-year
through the end of July and is now
poised to soon slip to fifth or sixth
place as Singapore and South
Korea continue post strong growth
in arrivals.
The Island Republic of

Singapore reports an
increase of 46.10% in Bali arrivals
year-on-year through the end of
July, while South Korea is up
11.75%.
Be sure to keep an eye on
Indian travelers who grew 38.75%
through the end of July.
Russia, once touted as the
next big thing for Bali tourism is
slipping in the ranks, dropping
11.04% year-on-year at the end of
July. Bellicose foreign policies,
economic sanctions form the U.S.A.
and NATO, and a 13% percent
depreciation in Ruble all bode ill for
Russian travel in the short and
medium-term.
More than 75% of Bali's
foreign visitors come from the AsiaPacific and ASEAN. Throw
Indonesian domestic travelers into
the equation and nearly 90% of Bali
visitors now come from domestic
and regional sources.

Crackdown to stop oversize carry-on bags

The days of passengers
bending Jetstar's carry-on
baggage rules are about to
come to an end with the airline
cracking down on customers
taking oversized bags on
board.
A Jetstar spokesperson
confirmed the airline will introduce
cabin baggage officers to crack
down on passengers who try sneak on
oversized or heavy carry-on luggage
on board, instead of paying to checkin them in.
The officers will enforce the
airline's carry-on size and weight
limits at Sydney, Melbourne,
Brisbane, Cairns and the Gold Coast
airports on a trial basis.
Currently, Jetstar passengers
without a checked bag can check-in
online or at an airport kiosk. The
boarding area is usually the first place
they interact with a Jetstar staff
member.
The airline will have officers
positioned at some airport gates to
ensure all passengers do not breach
the maximum allowable size and
weight limits for carry-on baggage.
Passengers deemed to be taking on
baggage that is too large and/or too
heavy will likely face a higher baggage
fee than what would have been paid at
the time of booking.
The spokesperson said the
airline was still finalising the
introduction of the new roles and did
not give a start date. Jetstar expects

10

the officers will provide

additional support to assist ground
crew at the boarding gate.
Limiting the amount of carryon baggage improves crew and other
passengers' safety and will also
speed up the boarding process so that
our flights can get away on time, the
airline said in a statement.
Since the introduction of
baggage charges, Jetstar domestic
flights have become a battleground
for cabin space with some
passengers violating baggage
allowance rules and taking excess
baggage on board.
We know that some of our
customers become frustrated when
there is a lack of overhead locker
space for their bags, Jetstar said in
the statement.
David Flynn, editor of
Australian Business Traveller, says
the move is a win for people who fly
frequently.
"This is welcome news for
frequent flyers and I'd like to see more
airlines copy this page from Jetstar's
book," Flynn said.

"Many people who regularly

fly for work are skilled at travelling
light, bringing only carry-on or hand
luggage, but find that precious real
estate in overhead bins is annexed
by fellow travellers who sneak
oversized bags on board."
Jetstar's current carry-on
baggage restrictions for all
Economy Starter, Starter Plus and
Starter Max passengers is one
main item (56cm height x 36 cm width
x 23 cm dimension) and one other
small item, with a total combined
weight of up to 10kg. For Business
Class passengers, it's two main items,
as long as each item does not exceed
10kg, with a total combined carry-on
baggage weight of up to 20kg.
Fees for check-in baggage at
time of booking is $15.50 for baggage
of up to 15kg, and $16.50 for baggage
of up to 20kg, one-way. Fees for
baggage checked-in at the airport, will
cost Jetstar passengers $70 for up to
15kg of checked baggage, and $15 for
every additional kilo after that.
The hassle of carry-on
baggage became a huge global issue
when airlines introduced new
baggage charges back in 2008.
Budget airlines are more inclined to
enforce the rules, but throughout most
of the world carry-ons are rarely and
only arbitrarily checked. And it's
getting worse.
The introduction of Jetstar
cabin baggage officers will be a first
for Australia domestic flights.

it is about to get even uglier.
The NRL player market is
now officially a free-for-all as the
November 1 rule does not exist.
Player-agents and clubs
were told in a meeting late last
month that they can sign any player
at any time to a new contract
because the November 1 rule is a
myth.
It will likely see clubs out of
the finals make formal offers for
stars playing in the finals this
month.
Brisbane's off-contract stars
Ben Hunt, Sam Thaiday and Josh
McGuire can now receive formal
offers from rivals as can North
Queensland's Jason Taumalolo.
Now the November 1 rule is

day after.

November 1.
Paul Massey, head of the
NRL's Accredited Player Agents
Scheme, told an agents conference
last month that the rule did not exist.
While some managers and
clubs were already flaunting the
rule, they can now it do it without
fear of repercussion.
The NRL confirmed to The
Courier-Mail that the only rule
governing the signing of a player
was that clubs can't entice a player
to break an existing contract.
Clubs are prohibited from
approaching a player to switch
clubs where doing so would require
the player to breach his playing
contract with his current club,'' an
NRL spokesman said.
This is based on a general
prohibition at law regarding

approach a player at any time about

joining their club for the period
commencing after his contract has
expired.
So, for instance, if a player is
signed up until the end of the 2015
season, other clubs can express
interest in signing him in 2016 but
cannot seek to have them join their
club in 2015.''
The Canberra Raiders'
struggle to enforce the contracts of
players who have agreed to terms
is a prime example of how muddied
the NRL's contract waters are.
Now there is a free for all on
signing players, expect NRL stars
to sign deals years in advance of
their current contract expiring.
A player would be smart to
sign a future deal when they are at
the peak of their powers rather than
wait for an inevitable injury to lower

Michelangelo Rucci looks at how deep Port Adelaide

can go in this year's AFL finals.
PORT Adelaide needs just
two qualities in its team to
hold up to create history in
this month's AFL final series
its players hunger to
succeed and their
willingness to work hard.
Since the AFL finals system
was redevised in 2000 to
significantly reward the top-four
teams only two clubs have
reached the preliminary finals
from low-order placings. They are:
SIXTH-ranked Hawthorn in 2001 when the Hawks
battered Sydney in an elimination final, defied Port
Adelaide by three points in a semi-final at Football Park
and then were harshly treated by umpiring in the first
quarter of an epic preliminary final won by Essendon by
nine points at the MCG.
SIXTH-ranked Collingwood in 2007 when the
Magpies worked over the Swans in an elimination final,
scored an extraordinary 19-point win against West Coast
in the House of Pain at Subiaco and pushed eventual
premier Geelong to within five points of an upset in the
Friday night preliminary final at the MCG.
The Power this week could become the first fifthranked team to advance its AFL standing in September.
A preliminary final appears within reach as Port has
so many lessons to digest from the eight-point loss

against Fremantle at Subiaco

in the last home-and-away round.
As a dress rehearsal, the game now
works so much in the Power's
favour more so if Ken Hinkley's
playing group has the match unfold
to its script of quick movement to
expose the damage by injury to the
Dockers' defence.
A win in Perth takes the
Power to the MCG for a preliminary
final against a refreshed Hawthorn.
That match-up against the AFL's
defending champion lifts the bar
significantly, but not beyond Port's reach if Hinkley's
players show the same appetite for hard work that created
the 10-1 start to the season that included a 14-point win
against the Hawks in round 10 at Adelaide Oval.
So how far does this ambitious Port Adelaide group
go?
A preliminary final is more than likely.
I know we're going to go (to Subiaco) and give a real
good account of ourselves, though, Hinkley said. We
certainly don't go over there with too many fears, we go
over there with a bit of freedom to be able to play the game.
A grand final the third for the Power in 10 years
would be an extraordinary achievement. It is possible,
particularly when Hinkley notes his players will turn up,
have a go and never, ever give in.

The four-time

The veteran coach has

It's interesting they didn't

previously, this is not related to those issues, Scott said.

This is a separate issue

weeks, he didn't play our last
home and away game.
We were hopeful that that
would be enough to have him in
good shape for the finals series,
but he just laboured too badly on
that sore knee on the weekend so
we've got to do something about
it.
Scott said Steve Johnson
and the medical staff are happy
with the way the midfielder's sore foot had pulled up after
Friday night's qualifying final, and he had not been ruled out of
this week's clash with the Kangaroos.
Allen Christensen (back) is also in the frame but must
get through training while Steven Motlop will play against the
Kangaroos.

A widower has settled

his $6million lawsuit
against three airlines
who barred his late
wife from planes
because she was 'too
fat' to fly.
Vilma Soltesz, who
was 407lb, died at the
couple's holiday home in
Hungary after she was not
allowed to fly back to New York
City by Delta, KLM or Lufthansa in
2012.
Her husband Janos Soltesz,
57, settled his wrongful death suit
last month for an undisclosed
amount.
Vilma Soltesz, 56, from New
York, who weighed 407lb and had
her leg amputated after suffering
from diabetes, died while on
holiday in Hungary in October
2012 because she was told she
could not board three separate
flights
The suit said the couple
were sent on a 'wild goose chase'
across Europe in October 2012 by
the airlines, which ultimately
caused Mrs Soltesz's death.
Morbidly-obese Mrs Soltesz
was also wheelchair-bound by an
amputated leg and suffered from
diabetes and kidney disease.
She was found dead at the
age of 56 at her vacation home in
Hungary in October 2012, days
after several aircraft crews
repeatedly failed to accommodate
her size despite telling her they
could do so, according to the
lawsuit which was filed in federal
court in Manhattan last October.
The couple left their Bronx
home in September 2012 on a
Delta Air Lines plane, securing two
seats for Vilma and one for her
husband. The couple arrived
safely in Budapest on a vacation,
according to the lawsuit.
By October 2, 2012, Vilma

Soltesz sought treatment at

a hospital in Hungary when she fell
ill. She was released and told she
could fly home but to see her
doctor immediately upon her
arrival.
Mrs Soltesz, pictured with
her husband during their airport
ordeal, tried to board three
separate flights to New York in
2012 but eventually died at her
holiday home in Hungary. Her
husband Janos settled his lawsuit
last month for an undisclosed
figure
In Prague although a local
fire department were brought into
to help move Mrs Soltesz into
three seats assigned to her, they
could not lift the 407lb woman out
of the wheelchair
The pair tried to leave
Budapest two weeks
later on a KLM Royal
Dutch Airlines flight,
with seats similar to
what they had on
their flight from the
United States,
according to the suit.
But a captain
told them to
disembark after Mrs
Soltesz struggled to
maneuver from her
wheelchair into her
assigned seats, the
lawsuit says.
After waiting in
a Budapest airport
for more than five
hours, the couple

drove to Prague to
catch a Delta flight they were
assured could accommodate
them.
But Delta did not have
an adequate wheelchair to
transport Vilma Soltesz to her
seat, the suit added.
'The Delta flight
coordinator told Janos and
Vilma that Delta ''did not have
access to a skylift'' to get
Vilma onto the aircraft from
the rear, and that there was
nothing more Delta could do for
them,' the lawsuit stated.
Later, on October 22, as
several medics and firefighters
helped her board a Lufthansa
flight, the captain told the couple
they had to disembark because
'other passengers need to catch a
connecting flight and cannot be
delayed further,' the lawsuit says.
'Exhausted and feeling ill,'
Vilma Soltesz went to bed after the
couple drove back to their vacation
home in Veszprem, Hungary, the
lawsuit says.
On October 24, Janos found
her dead - nine days after she was
supposed to have seen her doctor
in New York.

First, the researchers

Then, separately and
independently, an experienced
urologist measured their testes size.
The results then showed that
digit ratio was inversely proportionate
to adult testicular volume meaning
that a longer ring finger correlated to
larger testicles and vice versa.
In the study the researchers
also found that age and height did not
have much effect on testicular
volume, while weight had a marginal

The discovery was made by
Bernhard Fink of the University of
Vienna, who measured the fingers of
100 men and women and
photographed their faces using a
digital camera. He used a computer
programme to assess the symmetry
of each face.
They found that adult males
with a ring finger longer than their
index finger on their right hand had
larger testicles.
Conversely, men with a longer
index finger compared to their ring
finger have smaller testicles.
Prior to the study it had already
been suggested that second to fourth
digit ratio correlated with the male
reproductive system.
This was based on the finding
that Hox genes which help lay out how
a person's body takes shape control
finger development and genital
development during the embryonic
stage.

suggested that the size of a man's
testicle correlates with the volume of

Rearchers in South Korea say
finger ratios affect the size of testicles.
Men with larger testes were found to

Cut-off date for Australia Network

It's official. The lives of tens of
thousands of Australian expatriates in
Asia will change forever at midnight
on September 28, hours after the AFL
grand final.
A stake will be driven through our
souls. For months we have been in
denial: how could it be true that our
government could close the ABCmanaged Australia Network service?
No more footy, No more Virginia
Trioli's face smiling behind her dark
glasses early on ABC News Mornings,
bringing us up to date with the latest
from home and abroad.
No more Tony Jones and Q&A. No
more Zoe Daniel and Jim Middleton
fronting their program The World, a
showcase news program in Asia
(Middleton, a fine journalist, has taken
a package and left the ABC after 44
years).
We won't of course miss some of the
programming, like Channel Nine's
The Block. But those of us who have
been in Asia a while remember the
sheepdog trials that were shown in the
early days. Actually, I liked watching
the sheepdog trials.
OK, I acknowledge I am writing this

from the perspective of a passionate

Collingwood supporter. I can't imagine
what it will be like next season. I wake
up in the night in a cold sweat thinking
about the difficulties of trying to livestream games on my dodgy internet.
But this is more than an atrocity
inflicted on those of us out here
deprived of Four'N Twenty meat pies.
For my children there will be no more
Bananas in Pyjamas or Giggle and
Hoot. How do you feel about that, Tony
Abbott and Julie Bishop?
About 80 jobs have gone as a result of
the axing of the network which has
operated since 1993, then known as
ATVI.
Lynley Marshall, the CEO of ABC
International, announced the date of
the closure in an email to staff and
partners. "We will be terminating the

Australia Network service at

midnight Australian Eastern
Standard time on Sunday the 28th
of September. We apologise for any
inconvenience," she wrote.
Oh, by the way, something called
Australia Plus Television will provide
a six-hour block of television from
October 5, but details are vague
about what will be shown or how to
see it.
There is even a suggestion of pay-forview content. Pay for our own ABC!
What many of us out here do not
understand is if there is a crushing
need to save $223 million over 10
years by axing the service, why not
just give us ABC 24? That would
provide a forum for Asian nations to
see how our robust democracy works
and provide a reliable news service for
Australians in the region.
As the curtain falls, Ms Marshall left a
glimmer of hope that sanity will one
day prevail.
"Thank you for your support of
Australia Network and the ABC over
the years and we hope that one day in
the future we may be able to partner
you again," she wrote.

Walking can boost cancer survival chances

A study has claimed people
with the two most common
types of cancer can cut their
risk of dying by up to 40%
simply by walking a mile
every day.
Research carried
out by Macmillan Cancer
Support claims walking
for a mile (1.6 km) at a
moderate pace of up to
three miles per hour, or
walking for around 20
minutes a day could
reduce breast cancer
patients' risk of dying by
around 40% and those
with prostate cancer by 30%.
The estimates are based on
150 minutes of moderately intense
physical activity a week. This
means walking must be 'brisk' and
at a speed of three miles per hour
or faster.
"For cancer patients,

physical activity can not only

reduce the risk of dying or the
cancer coming back, but can also
help to manage some of the
devastating side-effects of

treatment, such as swelling,

fatigue or anxiety," said Ciaran
Devine, Macmillan's chief
executive.
"We cannot continue to turn
a blind eye to what is a very simple
and obvious solution. Physical
activity is a wonder drug."

The

The research by Walking for

Health, a network of walking
groups run by Macmillan Cancer
Support and The Ramblers, a UKbased walking charity, found
physical exercise can also
reduce some of the side
effects of cancer, such as
a n x i e t y, d e p r e s s i o n ,
fatigue, impaired mobility
and fluctuating weight.
R e s e a r c h
conducted in France
released earlier this month
f o u n d
t h a t
postmenopausal women
the group in which breast
cancer is most common
who had walked or cycled for four
hours a week over the previous
four years, were at a lower risk of
being diagnosed with the disease
compared with women who lived a
more sedentary lifestyle.

themselves in a more accurate way, it becomes necessary to view an entire
picture. Often, background and surroundings play little part in the viewing
experience as there are specific things being looked at, looked for and assessed.
The coming week brings an opportunity for you to start assessing an aspect of
your world and, to do this, you will need to be willing to see a bigger picture. A
proverbial or literal 'step back' is needed. You're not in a position to make certain
decisions unless you're willing to take into account all that a certain uncertain
scenario involves.
Taurus Apr 21 - May 21
People often talk about 'blowing trumpets' when they have something they want
the world to know about. Sometimes, we admire those who feel compelled to
draw attention to how good they are at something or any other information they
want us to know. Yet, sometimes there can be little else more annoying than
having to tolerate the unwanted playing of a trumpet. To make progress in an area
you yearn to make it within, you're going to have to practice the art of subtlety. You
won't be able to convey a certain sensitive point whilst blowing hard on a
proverbial trumpet. Push aside tendency this week to draw attention to yourself
and focus instead on the issue you know does deserve attention.
Gemini May 22 - Jun 22
'Look before you leap'. For most of us, such advice is unnecessary. We know
when to apply caution and tend to be very aware of the consequences of reckless
behavior. Sometimes, we throw caution to the wind and decide that it might just
be a bit more exciting to abandon caution in favor of indiscretion. I suspect you
know where this forecast is heading. This week, concerted effort to remain calm
and collected is required in an area of your world you might be inclined to take a
large risk within. For some Geminis, this will involve matters monetary. For
others, it could be their hearts on the line. What appears calculated might need a
bit more calculating. Go slowly and sensitively and all will be fine.

Libra Sep 24 - Oct 23

Fire tends not to respond well when fought with more fire. You could be inclined
to adhere to an 'attack is the best form of defense' attitude now and the coming
week is likely to ensure you recognize the benefits of dealing with a particular
issue with sensitivity. You could be forgiven for believing you have a point to
make and must therefore go to great lengths to ensure that a certain person is
left in no doubt about how you feel. Avoid any tendency to engage in retaliation.
Emotions are running high on your and certain others' part and you'd be well
advised to use the element of surprise to your advantage meaning do the
opposite of what one or two other people are expecting of you!
Scorpio Oct 24 - Nov 22
'Tomorrow is tomorrow. Future cares have future cures and we must mind
today.' So said the Greek play writer Sophocles centuries ago. Was life any less
stressful centuries ago? Perhaps, in many ways, it was but if we could have any
dialogue with those living back then, we'd discover how much they had to worry
about. A process is underway that has you looking more frequently at the future
than you're possibly used to doing. This could have a knock-on effect where
impulsiveness on your part is concerned. A situation, arrangement or budding
relationship doesn't need as much urgency attached to it as you might be
inclined to believe. There is much to be enjoyed about it here and now. Focus on
what magic exists in the present and leave the future to unfold in its own way
and time.
Sagittarius Nov 23 - Dec 21
Patience, we are told, is a virtue. Yet, we know how summoning and displaying
patience can be very frustrating. If we know there is something we want and can
justify our reasons for wanting it, then we tend to see no reason why what we
want can't be ours or at least made available in some way or on some level.
Developments later this month could see your impatience in a particular area
start to escalate. That's why you're superbly placed now to put in place a
strategy that involves being realistic about timescales surrounding a particular
aim or ambition. Expect this week to see reasons why you needn't pursue
what's so close to your heart so aggressively.

Cancer Jun 23 - Jul 23

'Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and
leave a trail.' So said American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson. It's a rare Cancerian
who doesn't feel inclined to venture into and explore new territory but the sky
speaks this week of opinions and advice from certain others coming into the
equation. It's becoming increasingly clear that a risk must be taken. It could also
be increasingly clear that others in your world have strong opinions about this and
the potential mistake you might be making in their eyes. You have an excellent
opportunity to forge ahead with a plan that suits you. If you're willing to ignore
obstacles in the form of opposition from others, then you move a cherished plan
ahead and eventually gain admiration and respect from doing so.

Capricorn Dec 22 - Jan 20

You're being given the equivalent of a celestial kick up the backside now.
Welcome it, don't resent it. Rarely do Capricorns need to be encouraged or
reminded in such ways about what matters most and where focus is best
placed but there's a strong 'continue as you mean to go on' element to what's
happening now. The coming week is bound to present you with more than one
reason to focus on what truly needs your attention and leave to one side for
now anything or anyone that doesn't. During coming weeks, you'll have
important personal decisions to make. The coming week could be pivotal in
terms of helping you to identify what and who matters.

Leo Jun 24 - Aug 23

I might be mistaken, but it appears there is a world sitting atop your shoulders.
Actually, it appears there is another world at your feet. How on Earth are you
managing to balance yourself above and below both of these worlds? It's true that
you are carrying considerable responsibility yet it's also true that you might be
oblivious to the opportunities becoming increasingly available to you. This week
requires you to acknowledge how you do, in many ways, have the best of both
worlds. The sky is encouraging you to acknowledge a particular obligation you
have but, at the same time, how much you can achieve through remaining
focused on what matters most to you. You're in a safer and more promising
situation than you probably realize. Trust that.

Aquarius Jan 21 - Feb 19

When we hear the word 'creativity', what do we envisage? Artistic people
donning French berets standing in front of easels or sculptors wielding
hammers and chisels? Such people are undoubtedly creative but even
someone who believes they don't possess a single creative molecule in their
body still possesses the ability to apply imaginative solutions to problems. This
week, you're being encouraged to adopt an imaginative approach to a
particular issue. What has been applied in the past hasn't been effective and
that's why you need to alter a particular strategy. All that's required is
willingness on your part to try an approach that hasn't yet been tried but has
been considered. That, in itself, is all the creativity you need to muster.

Virgo Aug 24 - Sep 23

We don't need qualifications in psychology to know how to attract or repel people
in our lives. We know what makes us approachable and others look for before
offering support in any way. Strong emphasis exists this month on gaining
support and approval in many ways and the process commences this week. You
have something to offer. You needn't be apologetic about offering it. Through faith
combined with effort, you can gain support from those you need it from. They're
going to need some reassurance though that you do believe in yourself. Make
that a priority this week and you'll soon see how willing certain people are to agree
or follow.

Pisces Feb 20 - Mar 20

Do you need a genie in a magic lamp to facilitate the realization of a particular
dream? Not at all. The sky speaks clearly of you possessing all you need to
make something very close to your heart happen. This involves a particular
talent you possess and there is a clear link now between it and fulfilling a certain
ambition. This week could have you pondering if whatever it is you're able to do
is 'up to scratch' or at a level it needs to be if you're to progress its achievement.
During coming weeks, it will become clearer what you can offer and how you
can benefit from doing so but, for now, allow your belief levels to escalate. The
boost you need to your confidence is coming.

Please EnjoyOtis Redding Sittin on the Dock of the Bay

Otis Redding
"(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay" is a song co-written by
soul singer Otis Redding and guitarist Steve Cropper. It
was first recorded by Otis Redding in 1967, days before
his death on December 10, 1967 in a plane crash in
Wisconsin that killed everyone onboard except Ben
Cauley, the trumpeter in the bandIn August 1967, while
sitting on a rented houseboat in Sausalito, Redding
started writing the lyrics to the song. "(Sittin' On) The Dock
of the Bay" became
the first posthumous
single to reach
number one on the
Billboard Music
Charts..
Origins
Otis was one of
those kind of guys
who had 100 ideas.
Anytime he came in
to record, he always
had 10 or 15
different intros or
titles, or whatever.
"Dock Of The Bay" was exactly that: "I left my home in
Georgia, headed for the Frisco Bay" was all about him
going out to San Francisco to perform.
Together, they completed the music and melancholy lyrics
of "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay."

Reception
Redding accepted some of the criticisms and fined tuned
the song. He reversed the opening, which was Redding's
whistling part and put it at the end as suggested. A few
months before composition of Redding's most famous hit,
British music magazine, "Melody Maker" named Otis
Redding as the world's #1 vocalist. He dethroned Elvis
Presley who had reigned for the previous ten years. "The
Dock of the Bay" was released early in 1968 and topped
the charts in the US and UK.
On December 10, 1987, about 4,000 people gathered in
Macon, Georgia, for a memorial service 20 years after
Redding's death.
"Dock of the Bay" is redolent of a period and a culture. But
more than that, its mood of contemplation, its atmosphere
of quiet yearning mixed with a generation-hopping favorite.

Universal success

saturated with Redding's previous hits. The song shot to
number one on the R&B charts in early 1968 and, from
March, topped the pop charts for four weeks. The album,
which shared the song's title, was released and became
his largest selling to date, peaking at number four on the
Pop Albums chart. "Dock of the Bay" went on to gain
success in countries across the world, and brought
Redding the greatest success of his career, selling more
than four million copies worldwide and receiving more than

So I kicked in the front door to confirm my
