Riverboarding, 'new' water sport for adventure-seeking adrenalin junkies

1 comments Posted by Me and Me at 1:35 AM

ADRENALINE JUNKIE: A man enjoys the thrill of riverboarding on the Citarum River in Bantar Caringin village, West Bandung regency. Unlike rafting, where a rubber boat is used, riverboarding involves the riding of individual boards to traverse rapids. (JP/Rahim AB. Santoso) It was cloudy in Bantar Caringin village, Saguling, Rajamandala, West Bandung regency, last Sunday and Citarum River was flowing with greater force due to an early morning downpour.
.
A group of people gathered on the bank of the tributary -- which is regularly used for rafting practice -- where they discussed the best spot from which to take off.
.
This time, however, they were not going to practice rafting; they would be using boards instead .
of rubber boats, in a sport known as riverboarding.
.
Some participants looked anxious at the thought of crossing the powerful Citarum, armed only with boards. Ajo, 27, for instance, said he was not prepared to face the river that day. He was still traumatized from being flung from his board a few weeks earlier during a tryout session in a smaller stream, Palayangan River, in Pangalengan, Bandung regency.
.
Ferry, 28, on the other hand, was all set to go riverboarding and was already wearing his life vest and helmet. After some balancing practice with his board on the riverside, he proceeded to a likely starting point.
.
Each carrying a vest and board weighing 5 kilograms, the participants walked a distance of 700 meters along the river bank before finding an ideal spot to start the activity; one with few rocks and a fairly mild current, allowing enough time to practice boarding skills before facing the roaring rapids downstream.
.
Although the river surface appeared calm, the current beneath was quite strong -- one has to be confident of continuing with this adventure before setting off.
.
No doubt many newcomers to the sport begin their first ride with some trepidation. Minutes after taking off, the rumbling sound of rapids can be heard ahead and the river current grows wilder.
.
As riders enter the bigger rapids, the boards become harder to control and may even overturn. But panic lasts for just a moment, as once participants reach for their boards and have hold of them, its full steam ahead to the next rocky torrent.
.
After the initial feeling of panic subsides, riders can enjoy a refreshingly different water adventure -- following the river currents for hundreds of meters downstream -- and take pride in having traversed the hostile rapids on plain boards.
.
Extreme sports like riverboarding are for hobbyists who crave excitement. Mamay, head of the natural rock division of the Indonesian Rock Climbing Federation, said he had become considerably engrossed in this new activity.
.
"I've tried rock climbing and rafting with rubber boats, but riverboarding is truly personal. At first I was scared of facing the strong current laying down (on a board)," Mamay said.
.
The boards used by riverboarders in Bandung are produced by a workshop belonging to Rahim A.B.S. As well as being a reliable riverboard maker, Rahim is also a highly skilled riverboarder.
"When I went down the river (on a board) for the first time, I was afraid. But my conviction that proper equipment would ensure safety made me bold enough," he said.
.
Rahim, who has a souvenir long scar on his shin from his first riverboarding experience on the Citarum, said good preparation for engaging in this extreme sport could reduce accidents.
He said life vests and helmets were sufficient safety equipment for streams or rivers graded one or lower. He also suggested fins be used so that less power is exerted.
.
Riverboarding has been popular for quite some time in Europe, the U.S., Australia and New Zealand. In Indonesia, where many rivers have fast-flowing rapids, it has been trialled for less than a year.
Although still considered a "new" sport, riverboarding is an alternative water activity for those who are fond of adrenalin-pumping, thrill-seeking adventures.
.
Meanwhile, surfing enthusiasts can make riverboarding their substitute when circumstances prevent them from boarding at the beach. On short vacations, or at times when high ocean waves are inhospitable, surfers can leave the sandy shores and head for the hills to find their adrenalin fix in the mountains' raging rivers.

Photography Courses

.
Someone who has a pretty good understanding about how digital works, but needs to learn more about composition, lighting techniques and software tricks to give your images more impact? .
Then you should really attend one of Melbourne – The Photographers’ one-day seminars or workshops.
.

Part 1 “Getting The Best From Your Digital Camera” is the gateway to the Part 2 Hands-On Workshop.
Many attendees questions include: What settings should I set my camera to capture fast moving sports? What ISO should I use when photographing at night? I never capture stunning sunrises and sunsets. What am I doing wrong? What’s the best way to shoot portraits? Why don’t I get lovely deep blue skies when shooting landscapes? My company asks me to shoot events and my photos are always dark….Help! Tell me how to set the camera when shooting market and street scenes? My close-ups of flowers are always blurry. Why? How can I be more creative? What should I look for? I’m still confused about what lens or zoom to use? How do I decide? Any many, many more…………
Part 2 Beginner Seminar: 1 Day NEXT AVAILABLE DATE: SUNDAY 26TH APRIL 2009
IDR 800,000 includes refreshments and lunch. See end of document for more information regarding registration and location. Limited to 12 participants
Melbourne’s Advice: Start with Part 1 “Getting The Best From Your Digital Camera” seminar (above). Then enroll in Part 2 “Beginner” and become familiar with your cameras features and controls by carrying out hands-on practical assignments under Melbourne’s guidance.
Part 2 BEGINNER SEMINAR SUMMARY The seminar is hands-on practical.
This is an action-packed day. You start at 9.00am and will hardly rest until we wrap up between 4.30 and 5.00pm. Who said photography is easy???? (Refreshments are available throughout the day…you won’t starve! Lunch is great too….but you only have 40 minutes!) Melbourne will demonstrate a series of assignments and then you work in small groups to work through each assignment. All assignments are fast and easy to complete and Melbourne will be on hand to answer questions and give guidance. This is the opportunity to shoot and make mistakes. The more mistakes we make, the faster we learn. The purpose of each exercise is not for participants to create a masterpiece…far from it….the object is for each participant to have the experience of shooting different zoom focal lengths, exposures, focus modes, white balances and ISO’s in a typical picture taking environment, with his/her own camera. Suddenly aperture, shutter speeds and depth of field will make sense. Infinitely better (and more fun!), than just reading dozens of books. Your experiences from these assignments will aid you later when you are out and about on your own, shooting landscapes, portraits using window light and fill flash, sharp foreground blurred background. Street photography and market scenes, still life, food, macro, sports and action etc. You are not competing with any one else, the sole purpose is to aid you in exploring the features of your camera while taking everyday photographs. Everything you need to know to gain the confidence to take your photography to the next level. When you have completed this seminar, it’s unlikely you will use “AUTO EVERYTHING” mode ever again and you will be making all the decisions on how you want your images to appear. At the end of the day you will have fast tracked your way through many of your cameras controls and features and will be ready to go out and shoot, shoot, shoot. So what do you think? Do you want to make a remarkable improvement to your photography by investing time with one of south-east Asia’s most experienced photographers?
.
QUESTIONS ARE ENCOURAGED IN ALL SEMINARS……THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A SILLY QUESTION!
.
Photoshop Courses
Capturing images with a digital camera is fun, but it is only the first step in producing beautiful and creative photography. Photoshop is the undisputed leader in photo-editing software and as a photographer, when you arm yourself with knowledge of this powerful program you will be able to transform your images into memorable photographs that you or your friends will be pleased to hang on their walls as a piece of photo décor.
Melbourne has been a photographer for over 30 years and has photographed assignments all over the world. He started working with Photoshop in 1993 using Photoshop version 4. He understands that Photoshop can appear to be overwhelming when you are starting out, so he developed two one-day courses that will guide you through the program at an easy pace.
.
The first Photoshop seminar is titled Session A “Introduction to Photoshop for Photographers”.
Aimed at those who have not fully immersed themselves in the wonders of Photoshop. Maybe you have Photoshop installed but have only played around with a few of the tools and are not sure of why certain things happen one time, and don’t happen another time! The 7 hours you invest in this seminar will save you hundreds of hours wading through instruction manuals!
In this one-day seminar you will learn all about the major tools and features of the program as Melbourne carries out an A to Z tour of the program. A comprehensive set of notes is included in the package.
By the time you have completed the seminar you will have experienced a thorough overview of the program and not once will you have had to refer to an 800 page manual. You will then be equipped to practice at home and will no longer have apprehensions about the program.

Festival celebrates 'peranakan' culture

0 comments Posted by Me and Me at 2:23 AM

A woman wearing a kebaya encim, a traditional blouse of Chinese Indonesians, walks past photographs at Peranakan Festival in Grand Indonesia Shopping Town, Central Jakarta, on Friday.
.

The festival, which runs from Jan. 9 to Feb. 1, displays around 30 photos and hundreds of ethnographic items depicting the history and culture of peranakan Chinese. It aims to inform people about the history and culture of the peranakan ahead of Chinese New Year, which falls on Jan. 26.
.

Peranakan is a term used for the descendants of the early Chinese immigrants to the Southeast Asia region (in Indonesia and Malaysia), who have partially adopted indigenous customs as part of acculturation and/or an intermarriage process with indigenous communities. The other group is called totok, who hold the Chinese culture more strongly than the peranakan.

Peranakan constitute the majority of Indonesia's Chinese-descent population.
.

Pictures at the festival depict, among others, peranakan religious activities, weddings, traditional fashion and culinary delights. During the opening Friday, the festival held a special Barong Landung performance, a rarely performed and unique traditional Balinese dance influenced by Chinese culture.
.

The peranakan population in Indonesia is estimated to be around 7 million of the total 230 million Indonesian population, the festival catalogue stated.
.

The festival is organized by the Forum for Indonesian Anthropological Studies (FKAI) and Lim&Ong Heritage Consulting.

BiomassWorld 2009

BiomassWorld 2009
09-10 Feb, 2009 - Jakarta
COMMERCIALIZING BIOMASS TO POWER, LIQUID FUELS AND CHEMICALS

The palm oil sector is dominated by Indonesia, Malaysia & Thailand, with volume amounting 90% of the world’s production. While the oil constitutes only about 10% of the palm production, the bulk of 90% is biomass. Many plantation companies are exploring conversion technologies and unlocking the potential of OPB (oil palm biomass) from its trunk to its fruit branch (EFB).
Besides palm, Indonesia produces over 200 million tonnes of biomass per year, comprising of agriculture residues (palm waste, rice husks, sugar bagasse), estate crops and forestry wastes. Indonesia therefore presents an attractive market for biomass technology with its low feedstock cost and high electricity demand.
Next generation technologies have claimed its potential to substantially expand the feedstock base for biofuels production (e.g., lignocellulosic biomass, nonedible vegetable oils, algae). Some of these processes (e.g., gasification of biomass followed by synthesis to liquid fuels- BTL) are already in their early commercialization stage.
CMT’s 2nd BiomassWorld 2009 offers top industry panel, leading plantation and power generation companies to discuss on biomass conversion to energy products, challenges and issues. Mark your calendar to be at this premier gathering to network and forge lasting business opportunities.
Do not delay! Book your seats now and update yourselves on the opportunities that biomass resources present.
10 Valid Reasons to Attend CMT’s 2nd Biomass World:
• Comparative economic analysis on converting biomass for heat, power, fuels or chemicals.
• As a project developer, have your doubts cleared on whether to convert your biomass to power, leave it for natural decomposition or look at liquid fuel opportunities?
• Thailand’s experience on converting EFB to power, operational challenges and concerns on feedstock availability
• Views from Indonesian plantation major - PT Bakrie on why they chose to convert EFB to natural fertilizer
• CDM developments (with case study on EFB power generation project) and how to claim carbon credits
• Conversion technology of biomass and EFBs to liquid fuels
• Learn from China & Japan, who are investing heavily in cellulosic fuels production technology, on the hurdles to commercialization & technology advancements
• Innovative financing schemes for biomass project and case study
• Switching from coal to biomass (saw dusts) – project in South Africa.
What opportunities it presents for the coal industry?
