JIMBARANJ imbaran is just south of the airport and Kuta. This

was formerly a real backwater of south Bali, just a tinyfishing village with a daily market. That all started tochange in the 1980s and J imbaran is now home to severalworld class 5 star beach resorts, plus a few moremoderate mid-market hotels.

There is however little in the way of budgetaccommodation and there are also many high-end villas inthis area, particularly on the ridges of high ground above

J imbaran Bay. This has resulted in monikers such as the"Beverly Hills of Bali" or "Millionaire's Row".

The bay itself has a pleasant white sand beachand is very safe for swimming. The three clusters of grilledseafood restaurants on the beach are a major tourist drawin the evenings, as is the truly stunning sunset.

J imbaran is also home to a Norwegian University,Gateway College, with around 500 students studyingathletics, philosphy, culture, economics and journalism.

The school is located in Kedonganan close to Sari SegaraResort and in J l, Bantas Kau where it also has a small cafe.

J imbaran has an increasing number of rather chicshops but there is little or no nightlife here. It has theadvantage of being a little closer to Kuta and Seminyakand the cultural highlights of Central Bali.

BALI, LOCATION TO SUIT EVERYONETHE BUKIT

Much has been written about this dusty, aridand rugged area, which forms the southernmost tip of the island.

Limestone cliffs of up to 100 meters inheight provide some of the best views in the

world, along with some deserted white sandybeaches.Everyone wants a piece of this are, from

international hotel chains such as Bvlgari,Versace and Banyan Tree, to establishedresidential villa developers looking for thatperfect plot. The area offers secluded beaches,and exclusivity to name but a few reasons whythis is fast becoming the place to be.

Prices have more than tripled in thearea over last 2 years alone with still plenty ofpotential to be realized, so now is a plan. Only ashort 15 minutes drive fromthe international airport, The Bukit is fast beingreferred to as the new Millionaires Row.

G'day again punters and welcome to the weekly brain dump. As usual itwas a good weekend in the A.F.L with a fairly standard run for all teamsconcerned. The ranks are starting to take shape nicely and the dominantsides are making their positions clear, but at the end of the day time wil ltell and as the season progresses the boys will be sorted from the men. Iwill finish the footy part of this ramble with a big well done to theBombers for their great win over Freo and if that's the calibre of footy the

lads are going to maintain for the season I think a few coaches better getready for some tough footy when they come up against Hirdys boys. Freowere in front at the half time siren by 36 point (That's 6 goals Ken) and they came back and took the win by a slim 4point margin. There is a second part to the win, which I think should be talked about and that's the rumour andgeneral consensus that a different team ran on after the half time break. I read a few posts on Facebook whichindicated that the boys may have had a few extra oranges during the break to get them up and ready to roll hard forthe last half, and they did. The stigma attached to the use of banned substances in sport is never going to go awayonce the jungle drums start beating. The chief of the A.F.L actually suggested on Friday night before the game thatHirdy temporarily step down, however Hirdy categorically stated he wil l not be stepping down as coach. At timeof writing this column, he is meeting with ASADA (Australian Sports Anti-Doping Authority) to try and shedsome light on the issues surrounding his apparent use of the drug Hexelin. Time will tell.

Moving along this week, and in keeping with Bali the Right Way I'd like to share with you a conversation I hadwith a tourist/expat during the week. This fellow has a job in the oil and gas industry and has decided to use Bali asa hub for his fly in fly out position. He has rented a little humpy out behind Carrefour shopping centre and hastuned his radio into LBFM while he is here, so things are good for him, while he is here. He went onto explainthat there are a heap of tax benefits along with a heap of cost of l iving savings that he now enjoys and for thebetter part of his time here all is good. One part of the conversation sticks in my mind and I tend to agree with theopinion he conveyed, which was, he had noticed that up here, in Bali many of the expats do nothing other thandrink beer all night and generally the same thing in the day if they aren't sleeping. He continued the conversationline with does anyone actually take tours or go fishing or catch a movie or anything else other than sit and drinkbooze?? Now, being that I am a seasoned Bintang taste tester, and if someone had been batting on about this forweeks I would probably say give it a rest or not this old chestnut again but at the end of the day is this fellowright ??? Many of the expats that come here actually do nothing other than drink booze all day and night. If wetake a look at the tourists that frequent the island, I think many of the pictures you'll see of these travellers onholidays are ones that are showing them with green bottles in hand, in the pool, at the bar or even walking downthe street and I think that's what Bali is all about for so many of us. I guess if you are satisfied with your li feachievements and you come to Bali to retire and you are happy to do nothing more than drink booze then good onyou, as if it wasn't what you wanted to do then you would easily change it.

There are so many things other than a lifetime of drinking to doin Bali that it's not funny, and you only have to look around tofind something other than drinking to do. I look forward to

having another conversation with the same fellow in a fewyears and see how things have treated him on the island and seewhether his feelings have changed towards living here amongstthe rest of us.

Ok folks I hope this ramble found you all well and trust that no-one I know had been for a fun run in Boston. I hope the most ofyou stay safe, happy, healthy and always remember, Physicianswho are famil iar with alcoholism agree there is no such thing asmaking a normal drinker out of an alcoholic. Enjoy Your Week,

ALIASJ

Badung plans outer ring road for BenoaA s T a n j u n g B e n o acont inues to grow infavour and is becoming acrowded choice for watersports, Badung regionaladministration is planning

to develop an outer ringroad to prov ide easyaccess.

Wayan Suambara, head ofBadung Development andPlanning Agency (Bappeda) hassaid that the administration wascurrently conducting a feasibilitystudy on the plan.

Replicating the roadconstruction on the reclaimedbeach could be an option.Pekalongan in Central J ava hasalready done this successfully,Suambara said.

Such a system would besuitable in Bali where land

acquisition was very costly, hesaid.Road access to Tanjung

Benoa is very narrow and largetourist buses pass along the streetevery day.

The once remote fishingvillage is now becoming anopulent tourist spot with a line ofluxury hotels, restaurants andwater sports facilities filling thearea.

Located adjacent to NusaDua resort complex, TanjungBenoa is a favoured option forboth local and internationalguests who are attending variousconferences and businessmeetings in Nusa Dua.

A few weeks ago,President Susilo BambangYudhoyono had to visit TanjungBenoa, creating a traffic jam in thestreets as buses, as well as cows,were roaming the streets,Suambara said.

There should be quick fixsolution to the traffic problems inTanjung Benoa, especially aheadof the Asia-Pacific EconomicCooperation (APEC) Summit nextOctober.

Badung administration willpropose that the centralgovernment include theconstruction of access to Tanjung

Benoa as part of thenational development program,he said.

Wayan Puspanegara, alegislator, said that Badung hadallocated Rp 397 billion (US$40.7million) for the construction ofb a s i c a n d s u p p o r t i n ginfrastructure in the 2013 fiscalyear.

Badung must have world-class infrastructure as it is thecentre of Bali's tourist areas,Puspanegara said.

Badung has also set asideRp 72 mil l ion for roadimprovements and regional levelinfrastructure.

Ketut Ardana, chairman ofthe Association of IndonesianTour and Travel Agencies(ASITA), said that many touristsnow preferred to go to TanjungBenoa for water sports.

Tanjung Benoa, with itswell-equipped water sports, hasattracted thousands of touristsevery day, Ardana said.

Leave the Driving to Us in UbudBali Transport AssociationSupports Satellite Parkingand Shuttle Service in Ubud

The chairman of the BaliTo ur is m T ra ns po rt a ti onAssociation (PAWIBA), BagusSoediana, said his organizationfully supports the provision of an

armada of shuttle vehicles forUbud as a means to reduce trafficcongestion in the popular artscommunity located in Central Bali.

As reported by Bisnis Bali,Soediana said the proposedshuttle service would providetransport from the satellite parkingspace for passengers off visitingbuses to destinations within theUbud community and reducetraffic congestion in the popular

sub-destination in Bali.Because of this, Soediana

applauds steps underway tocreate satellite parking as anappropriate step to accommodate

a growing number of tourists onUbud's small and narrow streetsthat are unable to handle largebuses.

Soediana also supportsplans that would give the Gianyar

regency the right to operatethe shuttle service around Ubud.Only the shuttle vehicles wouldbe allowed to deliver touristsaround Ubud, he explained.

The PAWIBA chairmanwarned that both Ubud and Bali'sreputation will suffer if theproblems of traffic congestion isnot urgently addressed in Ubud.The operation of a satelliteparking system in cooperationwith a shuttle service, he believes,will reduce the use of fossil fuels,minimize pollution and, mostimportantly, help eliminate stressfor visitors to Ubud.

Pastika: Bali monorail given green light by HinduBali Governor Made MangkuPastika has stated that themuch d iscussed monorailp r o j e c t h a s r e c e i v e dpermission from relevantHindu religious leaders.

Thanks to the 'Sulinggih'(Hindu religious leader) the plan

now has been approved in thephilosophical sense. I doubtmany will oppose the plan, butbecause it has been approved Iwould not worry anymore aboutimplementing this, statedPastika in Denpasar yesterday.

Pastika explained that theconstruction of the monorail wasplanned two years ago, but has notyet made it past the concept phasedue to a lack of financial backing.

From a study conducted byPT. Kereta Api, the project isexpected to cost up to Rp. 12 trillion.

Earlier this year a railwaybuilding company from Chinaexpressed interest to build themonorail, but as yet there has beenno follow up meeting, he added.

According to the former Balipolice chief, the monorail will be ableto open up areas of the island tobecome new tourist destinations, andwill also reduce the burden of road

traffic and congestion.Meanwhile, Hindu leader Ida

Pandita explained the reasons for itsapproval in accordance with theteachings of the concept of Hinduism.

In Hindu philosophy,'Bedawang Nala' representsthe balance of the world, andis symbolized by a turtle anda dragon. With relation toBali, this concept could be thebasis for achieving a balancebetween regions, stated theSu l ingg ih , who waspreviously a professor at theUniversity of Udayana.

Pandita went on toexplain that the monorail

would be like a dragon that binds theisland of Bali in order to be stable.Stability will be achieved if there is abalance of all aspects.

Brazen theft f rom Parisian bridge baffles cityThe gilded Pont Alexandre III

bridge in Paris has lost some ofits sparkle after thieves madeo f f w i t h t h e h i s t o r i cmonument's bronze plaques inthe latest theft from a Parisianlandmark.

Despite the watchful eye of itselaborate statues of nymphs andwinged horses high above theSeine River, two plaquesproclaiming the name of themonument were seized by thievesthis month, officials said.

While the bronze used tomake the two stolen plaques sells atabout 10 euros ($13.06) per kg, thecity of Paris declined to comment onthe value of the ornamental pieces

stolen."We have no idea whetherthey were taken for their metal or bycollectors," a town hall spokeswomansaid.

She said they would bereplaced as soon as possible withidentical copies.

"It's not a question of metallicvalue but of historic value," she said.

French police have struggledwith metal theft in the years since theglobal economic crisis hit, with 5,800

hours of train delays caused in

2010 by the removal of copper fromrailways.General metal theft in Paris

Mali to give France new camel after first one is eatenMalian authorities will giveFrench President FrancoisHollande another camel afterthe one they gave him inthanks for helping with theircountry was killed andeaten by the family he left

it with in Timbuktu, anofficial in Mali said.

A local governmentofficial in northern Mali said areplacement would be sent toFrance.

"As soon as we heard ofthis, we quickly replaced it witha bigger and better-lookingcamel," said the official, whoasked not to be named becausehe was not authorized to speak tothe media.

"The new camel will be sentto Paris. We are ashamed of whathappened to the camel. It was a

present that did not deservethis fate."

Hollande was presentedwith the camel when he visitedMali in February several weeksafter dispatching French troops to

the former colony to help withthings.

The president joked at thetime about using the camel to getaround traffic-jammed Paris. But

he chose in the end to leaveit with a family in the town on theedge of the Sahara desert.

Defense Minister J ean-Yves Le Drian was tasked withgiving Hollande regular updates

on the camel's status and hadto inform him of its death lastweek, French media said.

"The news came in fromsoldiers on the ground," said aFrench government official.

French leaders havereceived many gifts of exoticor wild animals from Africa andfurther afield over the years.

Last week, a robberchain-sawed a tusk off the

skeleton of an elephant offered toLouis XIV by a Portuguese king in1668. Police caught the robber ashe fled, tusk under his arm.

Three Virgin Sisters.Three virgin sisters were all getting married within a

short time period. Mum was a bit

worried about how their sex life would get started and

made them all promise to

send a postcard from the honeymoon with a few

words on their first impressions

of marital sex.

The first girl sent a card from Hawaii two days after

the wedding. The card said nothing but: Nescafe.

Puzzled at first, Mum went to her kitchen and got out

the Nescafe jar. It said: Great from beginning to

end. Mum blushed, but was pleased for her daughter.

The second girl sent the card from the Maldives a

week after the wedding, and the card read:

Rothmans. Mum now knew to go straight to her

husband's cigarettes to read from the pack: "Super

strong King Size. She was again slightly

embarrassed but still happy for her daughter..

The third girl departed for her honeymoon in New

Zealand .. Mum waited for a week,

nothing. Another week went by and still nothing. A

month passed; stil l nothing.. A card

finally arrived from Auckland on which was written

with shaky hand, Air N ew Zealand ..

Mum took out her latest travel magazine, fl ipped

through the pages fearing the worst,

and finally found the ad for A ir NZ.

'Ten times a day, seven days a week, in all directions.'

Collingwood had the betterof a tough contest early, with two

of key forward Travis Cloke's fivegoals for the match helping hisside establish a decent second-quarter buffer as they dominatedwith slick, high-speed handballchains.

But the Hawks reduced thedeficit with the last three goals ofthe term to Jed Anderson, LanceFranklin and Hodge to trail by justa point at half-time.

Hawthorn skipper Luke Hodgeturned back the clock anddragged his team through thetime machine with him in ahigh-quality 55-point victoryover Collingwood at the MCGon Sunday.

The Hawks ran out 22.13(145) to 13.12 (90) winners, with 28-year-old Hodge inspirational with 31possessions and two goals.

Dear Martha,

I really need your advice on how to cope withstress other than hit the booze each night. At themoment I'm in a stressful family situation and abit lonely and rather than being my best I'mracing home from work every night to settle mywonderful children then cracking into the booze.I work full time during the day & my wife worksat night. I'm early thirties and there has to bemore - or is there??? Is there anything I can lookforward to once the kiddies are in bed & my wifeis at work other then the oblivion of alcohol?

Markus

Dear Markus,

Drinking because you're bored or stressed or lonely

and doing it every night is not ideal. And I don'twant to encourage you to be complacent if you thinkyou have a problem.But sometimes we are also just doing the best wecan. Sometimes we are stressed or bored or lonelyand we know we should be looking for healthierways of living. But we are doing the best we candear.Parenting young children is an inflexiblearrangement at the best of times. You are home

night after night, unlessyou have the finances tohire babysitters or familysupport. Otherwise it'sjust you the couch andthat bottle of booze.It may help to realisedrinking doesn't reallyhelp you deal with stress. It actual ly tends to makethings worse. The more you drink and the moreregularly the lower your emotional defenses drop.You are more reactive, moody and tired. Drinkingtoo much can also be a signal - and a cause - ofdepression.You should also try to draw a line about drinkingand non drinking days. Make Monday TuesdayWednesday alcohol free. Get out a DVD you'vebeen wanting to see,be strict with yourself for a couple of weeks untilyou have created a new pattern of now drinking oncertain days of the week. Good luck.

Power surge to clip Crows' wingsThe Power came from 31points down in the thirdterm to post a stunning17.16 (118) to 16.13 (109)triumph at Football Park.

J ustin Westhoff

kicked all four of hisgoals in the secondhalf as Port bootednine of the last 12majors of the game tobank their thirdconsecutive win.

While Westhoffhad the biggest haul,the unbeaten Powerwere also sparked byShowdown Medal-winning captain TravisBoak and ChadWingard, who eachkicked a hat-trick.

Adelaide spearheadTaylor Walker booted threemajors while on-ballers RorySloane and Scott Thompsonwere solid performers.

When Walker kicked histhird in the 11th minute of thethird quarter, the Crows skipped31 points ahead and appearedhome.

But Westhoff triggered acomeback which was defined by

a game-turning incidentlate in the quarter.

Adelaide midfielderMatthew Wright had a set shot atgoal from 45 metres to give hisside a two-goal buffer, but

inexplicably handballed to histeam-mate Matthew J aensch,

charging from behind.But Crows players did not

factor in Port veteran JaySchulz, who was hot on

J aensch's heels and tackled theAdelaide player, who was forcedinto a wild handball.

The ball sailed straight toPort, who swept the ball downfield and captain Boak goaled tolevel the scores at three-quartertime.

The Power then rode theirmomentum before a 40,707-s t r o n g c r o w d w i t h acommanding last quarter.

Wingard kicked all three ofhis goals in the final stanza, his

Rose Tattoo is an Australian rock and roll band, now led by Angry

Anderson, that was formed in Sydney in 1976. Their sound is hardrock mixed with blues rock influences, with songs including "BadBoy for Love", "Rock 'n' Roll Outlaw", "Nice Boys", "We Can't BeBeaten" and "Scarred for Life". Their first four albums wereproduced by Harry Vanda and George Young who also workedwith AC/DC. They disbanded in 1987, subsequently reformingbriefly in 1993 to support Guns N' Roses on an Australian tour.

They reassembled again from 1998 and have since released twomore studio albums.According to Australian rock music historian Ian McFarlane, Rose

Tattoo are "one of the most revered bands of all time. The Tattsplayed peerless, street-level heavy blues with the emphasis onslide guitar and strident lyric statements". Guns N' Roses, L.A.Guns, Keel, Nashville Pussy, Motosierra, Pud Spuke and HelenSchneider have covered Rose Tattoo songs. On 16 August 2006,they were inducted into the Australian Recording IndustryAssociation (ARIA) Hall of Fame. Five former members have diedin recent years including four of the original recording line-up,Dallas Royall (1991), Peter Wells (2006), Ian Rilen (2006) andMick Cocks (2009), and Lobby Loyde (2007), who was a memberbetween October 1979 and September 1980.

Rose Tattoo was formed in Sydney in 1976 with Leigh J ohnstonon rhythm guitar, Tony Lake on lead vocals and were led by slideguitarist Peter Wells who had just departed as bass guitarist ofheavy metal band Buffalo. Drummer Michael Vandersluyscompleted the line-up. Ian R ilen from Band of Light joined on bassguitar. He had taught himself to play while in prison and gaveWells' band the street-cred he was looking for. Rhythm guitaristMick Cocks soon replaced J ohnston; Lake and Vandersluys weresubstituted by former Buster Brown members Angry Andersonand Dallas "Digger" Royall respectively. Melbourne-based BusterBrown had enjoyed local notoriety, playing at the 1974 SunburyFestival and had included future AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd.Rose Tattoo made their public debut on New Year's Eve at the rockclub Chequers.Chiefly inspired by The Rolling Stones, Faces and Billy Thorpeand his 1970s Aztecs, Rose Tattoo's hard-rocking sound quicklyearned a devoted following in the Sydney area. Members ofAC/DC were fans and recommended them to their label, Albert

Productions. The band's debutsingle "Bad Boy for Love" waswritten by Rilen, who left to form

punk rock group, X,(not the L.A.band) prior to its release in October1977. "Bad Boy for Love" wasproduced by Vanda & Young (ex-

T he E as yb ea ts , A C /D C 'sproducers) and peaked at No. 19 onthe Australian Kent Music ReportSingles Chart. Initially Cocksswitched to bass guitar to coverRilen's departure, then Chris Turner(ex-Buffalo) was brought in. Theband toured nationally on the pub

Alonso wins in China as Ricciardo claims best f in isht y r e

strategy, whilehis feuding RedBull team-mateMark Webberfailed to finish.

J ens onB u t t o n , o f

McLaren, wasfifth, and FelipeMassa sixth.

Australia's Daniel Ricciardo of Toro Rosso claimed a best-ever F1finish in seventh, while Force India's Paul di Resta, RomainGrosjean of Lotus and Sauber's Nico Hulkenberg roundedout the top 10.

Hamilton's lead from pole position lasted only into lapfive when Alonso activated his DRS on the home straight,sneaking on the Briton's outside, then Alonso's team-mateMassa shot down Hamilton's inside.

Next Sauber's Esteban Gutierrez slammed into theback of Adrian Sutil, of Force India. Flames licked from theright side of Sutil's machine as engineers battled to savehis race. But both cars were out.

Vettel, who started ninth on the grid, was movingominously up the field.

Likewise Webber, who started the race from the pitsafter a disastrous qualifying session. But that run to thefront was curtailed on lap 16 when Jean-Eric Vergne, of

Toro Rosso, cut across him.Webber suffered damage to the front of his car and

was called into the pits. But shortly afterwards theAustralian inexplicably lost a right-rear tyre. Several carshad to swerve as the tyre rolled across the track.

Webber's bad weekend was over.Raikkonen was in the thick of it, suffering slight

damage when Sergio Perez, of McLaren, attempted tosnuff out the Finn's overtaking manoeuvre.

"What the hell's he doing?!" exclaimed the straight-talking Raikkonen over the team radio.

Hamilton's team-mate Nico Rosberg, winner inShanghai last season, was the next to retire, as Button,Alonso and Vettel all had turns in the lead.

Raikkonen and Hamilton were also still in the hunt

with 20 laps to go.Alonso, the two-time world champion, surrendered

his lead - nearly 20 seconds by then - to Vettel when hewent in for a change of tyres. But the Spaniard snatched itback again on lap 43 of 56, darting inside the Red Bull.

Alonso, narrowly beaten to the world title last seasonby Vettel, was in full flow now, clocking the fastest lap timeof the race, as Vettel, the rampaging Raikkonen andHamilton scrapped it out for the other two podium places.

But Vettel still needed to pit again. On lap 52 he didso, rejoining the action in fourth, as he attempted to chasedown a podium place.

Ferrari's Fernando Alonso won a drama-packed Chinese Grand Prix in Shanghaion Sunday, well ahead of the Lotus ofKimi Raikkonen and Mercedes' LewisHamilton.

Filmmaker gets serious about aliensA tiny 'ali en' was foundin C h i l e ' s A tacamaDesert, a soon-to-bereleased documentaryclaims.

The being, as described in

the film Sirius, is just 15cm fromhead-to-toe, according to theHuffington Post, which previewsthe film

Sirius is the work of StevenGreer, a former emergency

medical physician, who hastried to get the US Government toreveal information about alienreality. This is his latest attempt toshow supposed cover-ups aboutalien visitors.

The film includes 'graphicfootage' of the supposedlyhumanoid entity of 'unknownc lass i f i ca t i on ' by DNAsequencing.

The film will have itsHollywood premiere on April 22.

"Whether or not the littlehumanoid turns out to be fromanother planet or is a previouslyundiscovered species from goodold Earth or is simply a hoax hasyet to be determined," theHuffington Post says.

Neolithic Iceman had bad breath, bad teethA dental examin ation of the5,300-year-old man foundfrozen in the Italian alps hasrevealed a large number ofdental diseases, surprisingresearchers.

The mummified remains of

the Neolithic man, now namedOtzi, were found in September1991 in the tztal Alps, near theSimilaun mountain andHauslabjoch on theborder between Austriaand Italy.

While the remainshave been studiedextensively in the past 20years, the teeth hadscarcely been examined.

Professor FrankRhli, the head of thelatest study, said Otzidisplays an astoundinglylarge number of oral

diseases and dentitionproblems that are stillwidespread today.

Prof Rhli says tzisuffered from heavy dentalabrasions, had several lesionsand damage to one of his frontteeth which was probably causedby an accident.

Dentist Roger Seiler fromthe Centre for EvolutionaryMedicine at the University of

Zurich has now examinedtzi's teeth based on the latestcomputer tomography data.

He found advancedperiodontitis, inflammatorydiseases affecting the tissues thatsurround and support the teeth.

The three-dimensionalc o m p u t e r t o m o g ra p h yreconstructions give an insightinto the oral cavity of the Icemanand show how severely he was

suffering from advancedperiodontitis.

Mr Seiler found loss of theperiodontal supporting tissue thatalmost extended to the tip of theroot.

While Otzi is scarcely likelyto have cleaned his teeth, his

abrasive diet contributedsignificantly to a process of self-cleaning.

Nowadays periodontitis isconnected to cardiovasculardiseases.

The fact that the Icemansuffered from tooth decay isattributable to his eating more andmore starchy foods such as breadand cereal porridge which wereconsumed more commonly in the

Neolithic period becauseof the rise of agriculture.

The researcherssaid his accident-relateddental damage and hisother injuries testify to histroubled life at that time.

In addition, the foodwas very abrasive, whichis reflected in his abradedteeth.

The Iceman is theoldest wet mummy in theworld. Since its discoveryin 1991, numerousscientific examinations

have taken place.In 2007 researchers

including Prof Rhli determinedOtzi's cause of death wasdetermined as probablystemming from internal bleeding.

There are two heavyweight contenders if the ARUreplaces Wallabies coach Robbie Deans this y ear, butJake White says Ewen McKenzie should be a "shoo-in" for the job.

Former World Cup-winning South African mentorWhite on Monday bowed to McKenzie's record with theQueensland Reds as both have increased the pressureon Deans' Test position.

The pair match wits in an intriguing sub-plot toSuper Rugby's most pivotal Australian derby of 2013 onSaturday night when the Reds and Brumbies meet atLang Park.

White's success in turning around the Brumbies inthe past 18 months virtually mirrors McKenzie's influenceat Ballymore where he led an amazing Queenslandrevival after taking the reins in late 2009.

The Reds went one win from making the 2010 semi-finals before winning the 2011 championship and pippingthe Brumbies for last year's Australian conference title.

After 24 games in charge, White's record with theBrumbies is 16 wins, seven losses and a draw.

In his first 24 games at the Reds, McKenzie's recordwas 17-7. It now sits at 40-15.

White said Queensland's 2011 title and last year'sconference win made him the next in line for the Wallabiespost with Deans coming off contract.

"If you look at it like that, you'd like to think that Ewenmust then be the shoo-in for that job because that's theway it is," he said in Canberra.

"They are laden with Wallabies, they have got awinning culture - he has done phenomenally well with thatReds team.

"The Reds, when he took over, were nowhere. He's(taken) them to where they are now and that plays amassive bonus for them. You've got to give him accoladesfor that."

While there is strong respect between both, White

and McKenzie have not minded niggling each other and their tactics in the past two seasons.McKenzie and the Reds currently hold a 2-1 advantage but the Brumbies savoured a 24-6 victory in

their last clash in this year's season-opener.With Wallabies leaders James Horwill and Will Genia now

back for Queensland, White has declared the home side "kingfavourites".

But McKenzie acknowledged the Brumbies remain acomplicated team to plan against.

"We're better than we were when we played them in the firstround, there's no question about that," he said.

"No one wants to talk about it but they kick the ball a lot."They kick it down the other end and they want you to play."It's a solid game plan and it works but they don't play any

rugby inside their own half."

Penis size does matter to women

The eternal question ofw he the r pen i s s i zematters has been probedb y a t e a m o f international scientistswho, after questioning105 Australians, foundthat, yes, women do findl a r g e r m e n m o r eattractive.

What's more,prehistoric women whocould see the sexorgans of their scantilyclad male counterpartsmay have helpedinfluence the evolutionof larger genitals in menby choosing to matewith partners who werebigger.

Researchers saidthey decided to tacklethe topic because paststudies had offeredconflicting answers, andmay have been sulliedby asking the womentoo directly.

"Since penis sizeis a sensitive subject.It's hard to determinewhether females lied or 'self-deceived' in their responses,"said lead author Brian Mautz, apostdoctoral researcher in
