after him Congers resident aims to document hunt for diamonds on Indonesian volcano.It may be hard to fathom, but Ted Leuser is basing his life's ambition on a cartoon from Ripley's Believe It or Not.The drawing indicates that the Leuser Volcano in Sumatra, Indonesia, at one time erupted diamonds.When the 64-year-old Congers resident got the clipping from his grandfather nearly 50 years ago, he was excited to see that the volcano had his last name attached to it."I was astounded to see my name, Leuser, for the first time in print," he said.Leuser, formerly a self-employed businessman in the graphic arts industry, said he's convinced the volcano was discovered by an ancestor of his.

Tropical Fruits of Bali 2007-12-14 05:12:00 TropicalFruits
of Bali Bali has an abundance of fruits with many varieties that are a lot more interesting than just your average apple or orange. Tropical fruits come in strange colours, shapes and textures, yet each is quite exotic in its own way. Just about everyone seems to enjoy the mangosteen which has been referred to as the "Queen of Fruits'. Slightly smaller than a tennis ball with a deep purple skin, the inside reveals 4-8 pinky-white edible segments that are delicately sweet. One of the oddest looking tropical fruit in Bali is the rambutan, also known as hairy fruit. This reflects the fruits most unusual skin of soft rubbery spines that are crimson in colour. Inside is a single piece of sweet translucent flesh that surrounds a woody seed. The whole segment is pooped into the mouth and the tangy flesh nibbled off leaving only the inedible seed. Another unusual fruit is the salak, which is recognized by its teardrop shape

There was a drizzle and no one was out and about except a vagrant who was laughing at the howling winds as if he were a character out of Shakespeare. The owner of the Bu Jono Losmen, where we were staying, promptly rang the police to inform them of the mad man. He assured us he would shoot the man with his shotgun if the fellow so much as came near the guest house.That got us to behave too. We endured the clove-scented, cigarette smoke billowing endlessly from him as if from a chimney without a word. Dieng Plateau is a town
