Bird Watching and Nature Excursions in Goa
Call me on +91-9881961071 when you're done with the everyday tours, the usual company and the same old sites. Then I'll custom design your nature excursions into the unexplored forests of Goa.
North Goa Bird Trip
6:45 a.m. (pick-up) to 10:30 a.m. (back at resort)
No this is not a trip to the Salim Ali bird sanctuary since the Chorao island is actually not very productive for birds! Instead we visit Socorro plateau for forest birds (Black hooded orioles, Golden mantled leaf birds, White cheeked Barbets, Plum headed Parakeets, Purple Sunbirds, Jungle Babblers, Purple-rumped sunbirds, Bronze drongos, White-rumped munias and the like!
Next, two stops made at Paithona stream and Pilerne lake for Pied kingfishers, Small blue kingfishers, Bronze winged jacanas, Purple Herons, Indian rollers, Marsh Harriers and other grassland and waterbirds.
Charges Rs 4800/- for two persons. Single person charge is 3600/- (includes binoculars, and pick up and drop back to hotel within 10 kms of Assagao).
"Better known for his snake-wrangling skills, Rahul Alvares takes small groups of enthusiasts on a birding trip. Happy punters have seen golden orioles, scarlet minivets, sunbirds, rufous woodpeckers, kingfishers, and an orange headed thrush… and that on a bad day." — Lonelyplanet Magazine
The Butterfly trip
Pickup 8.30 am Drop back 2-3.00 pm
At the butterfly conservatory on the outskirts of Ponda, Yashodan Heblekar (the owner) finds me 15-20 species to delight in on a decently sunny day. And if you peer around in the bushes and in-between the leaves you'll potentially find spiders, beetles and other insects that can make for some very interesting macro photography.
By planting specific endemic species of plants Heblekar has converted this conservatory into a giant butterfly magnet. Some of the more easily spotted ones include the Glassy tiger, Striped tiger, Blue mormon, Southern birdwing, Common rose, Baron, Grey count, Evening brown, Bush brown and the very beautiful and highly photogenic Tamil lacewing. And if you really luck out you might even see something as special and rare as an Autumn leaf or a gorgeous and stunning Malabar banded peacock!
Charges: Rs 6800/- for two persons ( includes pick up and drop back to hotel within 10 kms of Assagao)
Rs 5100/- for a single person.
The Reptile and Amphibian trip
Pick up: 4.00 p.m. Drop back: 11.00 pm
This trip will take you fifty kilometers outside Goa to the one-horse town of Amboli. The drive to Amboli climbs up a road that cuts and winds around spectacular mountains replete with gorgeous waterfalls.
Come 7 p.m. and we're out with torches searching in the forests for reptiles, amphibians, and any other kind of creepy-crawley that can make for an interesting photograph. Note however that on two out of three nights we don't find any snakes. With these odds why anyone would still want to do this trip beats me! But reptile enthusiasts are a crazy bunch and so this trip exists!
Requirements; Passports if you are a foreigner (we cross the Goa border). Shoes, trousers, rain gear, and torches if you have em!
Price ; Rs 7200/- for two persons. Single person charge 5400/- (includes pick up and drop back to hotel within 10 kms of Assagao)
Night Watch!
Face your fears of the dark while looking for nightjars in the night. Nightjars are unusual looking birds with even stranger sounding calls. Often these birds will alight right on the ground and if you're lucky to find one this way the bird will usually stay unmoving until you're almost upon it!
But nightjars aren't the only point of this trip. On this trip you will find yourself in a place completely removed from civilization and its night lights. And then you can either choose to take a surreal jungle walk guided only by a flashlight or simply sit and watch the stars while you suddenly become aware of your ears ringing as they find nothing but pin drop silence!
Pick up: 5.45 p.m. Drop back: 8.15 p.m
Charges: 4200/- for two persons (includes transport to and fro to any place within 10 kms of Assagao or Pallolem)
Bondla Wildlife Sanctuary bird trip
6:00 a.m. (pick-up) to 11:45 a.m. (back at resort)
It's a bit of a ride to Bondla and the birds here are often shy and elusive. But when we do see something chances are it will be one of the gems of the western ghats such as a Malabar Grey hornbill, a Ruby throated bulbul, a White rumped shama, or even a Fairy blue bird!
Charges Rs 6800/- for two persons. Single person charge 5100/- (includes binoculars, and pick up and drop back to hotel within 10 kms of Assagao).
Cotigao wildlife sanctuary Bird trip
Cotigao is my favorite wildlife sanctuary in Goa. It's located so far south that hardly anyone ever visits it. So expect to have the forest entirely to yourself on a birding trip here! Cotigao is home to some massive and beautiful trees and some spectacular, albeit shy species including Orange minivets, Grey fronted green pigeons, Yellow browed bulbuls, Nigiri wood pigeons, Malabar grey hornbills, Racket tailed drongos,and even Malabar trogons!
Price: Rs 4800/- for two persons with transport 5 Kms around Palolem (pickup 6.45 am. Drop back 10.30 am)
Rs 7500/- for two persons with transport from north or central Goa. (pick up 5.30 am. Drop back 11. 30 am)
"Most unusual is Alvares's Snake Trip. It's particularly recommended for those who've harboured an irrational fear of snakes all their lives. Within three hours you go from herpetophobia to philia." — TimeOut Mumbai
One to three day photography workshop
This is a crash course in wildlife photography. I'm certain that with my training methods you will learn more about photography on this three day workshop than you will learn in two years on your own.
The workshop covers everything you need to know about your camera (ISO, exposure compensation, white balance, focussing systems,etc.) and, everything you need to know about editing your images on your computer (lightroom and photoshop software). Besides we'll be visiting the best spots to photograph our subjects!
Charges: Rs 5,000 per person per day
(includes pick up and drop back to hotel within ten kilometers of Calangute)

Perennials are a favorite among gardeners. These plants return to bloom year after year with proper care. Get the most out of your investment by choosing those perennial flowers that thrive in your climate. If you live in a hot climate, choose perennial flowers that are tolerant of the heat and do not have delicate, easily scorched leaves and petals. In addition, the perennials you choose should be drought tolerant as well.
Powis Castle Wormwood
Powis Castle is a variety of wormwood (Artemesia arborascens) that will thrive even in very high heat. The perennial can also withstand humid temperatures. This wormwood is prized for its delicate, fern-like silver foliage. It grows up to 2 feet tall and thrives in almost every type of soil. Artemesia arborascens should be planted in USDA growing zones 5 to 10.
Hyssop (Agastache aurantiaca) is a flowering perennial that is drought and heat tolerant. There are many varieties of hyssop, which range in height from 2 to 5 feet. Hyssop, which is also known for its fragrant leaves, thrives in USDA growing zones 4 to 8 and can easily withstand the hot summers of the southwestern desert landscapes in the United States. This perennial, with its tall stalks of tiny flowers, blooms all summer long and attracts butterflies.
Butterfly Weed
The butterfly weed (Asclepias) is nicknamed for the fact that it is a favorite plant for Monarch butterflies, both in terms of nectar and larvae food. The predominantly orange flowers of the plant mimic the colors of the butterfly, although some varieties have flowers that are red or yellow. Asclepias can grow up to 2 feet tall and thrive in hot, dry soil. The perennial is hardy in USDA growing zones 4 to 9.
Color Guard Yucca
"Color Guard" yucca (Yucca filamentosa) is a small, mounding perennial that has beautiful, variegated leaves. Hardy in USDA growing zones 4 to 9, this plant features golden foliage with green and cream stripes. In the winter, the leaves develop pink colors. The plant, which will only reach a maximum height of 20 inches, tolerates heat very well and prefers well-draining soil.
Shasta Daisy
The shasta daisy (Leucanthemum X superbum) is a very well-known perennial flower. This spring and early summer-blooming plant features masses of white, many-petaled flowers with bright yellow centers. The plant spreads rapidly and prefers well-draining soil and full sun exposure. The shasta daisy is hardy in USDA growing zones 4 to 9 and can grow up to 3 feet tall.

SAN DIEGO (January 27, 2016) – Newly appointed director of food, beverage and culinary operations, Paul McCabe has hand selected three seasoned culinary professionals to work with him at Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, A Destination Hotel, as it embarks on a massive $80 million renovation project.
McCabe was tapped by Destination Hotels' vice president and managing director Michael Slosser, who worked with him on the highly successful launch of critically acclaimed KITCHEN 1540 restaurant as part of the rejuvenation of Southern California's L'Auberge Del Mar, A Destination Hotel.
McCabe is drawing on more than 30 years of culinary experience working with Californian, Mediterranean, Southwestern and Pacific Rim cuisines to re-concept the entire food and beverage operation at Town and Country Resort. He will be developing all concepts and menus and recruiting top culinary talent for new dining and drinking concepts – an all-day restaurant and expansive lobby bar that will also serve food will be housed in one building; and there will be a stand-alone restaurant near the pool complete with a pool bar. In addition, he and his new culinary team are revamping and refining the current Town and Country Resort & Convention Center food venues, including Terrace Café, The Market and Charlie's, Sports-Beer-BBQ. Most recently, they re-conceived Charlie's into a modern sports bar offering slow-smoke BBQ and local award-winning micro brews.
Prior to this position, McCabe was the executive chef at Phoenix's Four Diamond Royal Palms Resort and Spa, A Destination Hotel, where he relaunched the signature restaurant T. Cooks and won over guests with his clean, simple style. In addition to his time as executive chef at KITCHEN 1540 at L'Auberge Del Mar, he was at the helm of Rancho Santa Fe's Delicias restaurant before being recruited to take over culinary operations at the famed La Valencia Hotel in La Jolla. Long known for his culinary creativity and innovation, McCabe has helped reinvent such San Diego foodie icons as Top O' the Cove and Anthony's Star of the Sea. He spent six years at the award-winning Enchantment Resort in Sedona, where he worked his way up to executive chef and played an integral part in the renovation of Five-Star L'Ermitage Hotel in Beverly Hills where he was the executive chef.
McCabe has already selected three industry talents to work with him at Town and Country Resort. Mark Pawlowski has been named executive sous chef. Pawlowski has earned numerous honors and worked at prestigious hotels and restaurants for over 30 years. He last served as executive sous chef at Royal Palms Resort and Spa in Phoenix, Ariz., where he worked with McCabe at AAA Four Diamond T. Cooks restaurant.
McCabe has also appointed Jack Fisher as the resort's pastry chef. Fisher's prior position was as banquet chef at Hotel Solimar and JSix restaurant in San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter. He too is a highly regarded chef and pastry expert with over 25 years of experience at acclaimed California restaurants and resorts.
Another associate of McCabe when he worked at T. Cooks at Royal Palms Resort and Spa in Phoenix is eight-year culinary veteran Matthew Hobbs, who will serve as Chef de Cuisine at Town and Country Resort.
"We are extremely fortunate to have Executive Chef Paul McCabe in charge of re-conceiving Town and Country's entire food and beverage operations and look forward to working with him and his new culinary team on the transformation of this 62-year-old property into the ultimate meeting, leisure and urban oasis resort," said Slosser.
# # # About Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, A Destination Hotel Built in 1953, the 43-acre Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, A Destination Hotel, is poised to undergo a massive $80 million renovation and when complete in 2018 will emerge as San Diego's ultimate meeting, leisure and urban oasis – with 700 rooms, 200,000 square feet of meeting space, a 10,000-square-foot lobby complex, three new restaurants, a 5,000-square-foot-spa, a new parking garage and an expansive water park/pool area. The anticipated two-and-a-half year project will get underway in January 2016 and is the resort's most ambitious renovation to date. Over 62 years, Town and Country Resort has anchored Mission Valley and grown into the largest privately owned convention and meeting hotel on the West Coast. The hotel is now owned by a partnership comprised of AECOM Capital, Atlas Hotels and Lowe Enterprises. For more information, visit www.towncountry.com.

All of the staff at Bloom are well-trained and dedicated to ministering to the young ladies with whom we are entrusted. The following are minimum criteria that each staff member must meet in order to care for our students:
- Comprehensive background checks
- Medically screened
- Fully trained in CPR on an annual basis
- Fully trained in First Aid on an annual basis
- Safe driving training on an annual basis
- Universal precaution training
- Mature Christians in good standing at their local church
Additionally, each of our staff meets the Continuing Education requirements established by the State of Massachusetts Office of Early Education and Child Care and Teen Challenge USA (TCUSA) on an annual basis. This training includes workshops in the area of adolescent behavior management, nutrition, respect, Christian training principles and much more, as both necessary and available.
The staff at Bloom is both professional and compassionate. In addition to being properly trained, we believe that each one working within the ministry of Bloom is called and equipped to be here. Each of us takes seriously our commitment to the Lord, the young ladies we minister to, and the families we serve.
Meet the Director – Tori Ferrari, DBS/BC
Tori Ferrari has been working with troubled young people and their families for over twenty years, almost 15 of those years as the Director of the Teen Challenge of Arizona Springboard Home, the program Bloom is modeled after. She is passionate about helping girls discover who they are in Christ as she did herself in Teen Challenge 31 years ago. Responsible for overseeing all of the operations at Bloom, Tori strives to provide a program of excellence and the greatest opportunity for students to discover and grow in their faith. She holds her Master's Degree in Christian Counseling, her doctorate in Biblical Studies and Biblical Counseling and is an Ordained minister with the Assemblies of God. She has been married for almost 30 years to her husband Davide and has two grown sons, Alfonso and Robert.
Admissions Coordinator – Robin Hanson
Robin is the first voice many parents will hear when they call in for help. She is the staff member that will help parents and their daughters walk through the admissions process from their very first inquiry to the day they enter the program ready to begin the journey towards' new life! Both well informed and compassionate, Robin graduated from Zion Bible College with a degree in Ministerial Leadership and holds her Ordination with the New England project. She pastors Crossroads Carver with her husband, Barry and has four children.
Donor Development / Center Events / End Addiction – Priscilla Davis
Priscilla wears many hats at Bloom as she works with Churches, schools, donors and the general public promoting the mission of Teen Challenge Bloom and helping to raise funds to support our program. She establishes special events, visits schools with our End Addiction prevention message and visits local businesses and churches presenting the Bloom program as a resource and source of hope to the community. A graduate of the EDGE School of Ministry in Tucson, Arizona Priscilla comes to Bloom after serving for the past four years with Teen Challenge of Arizona's Springboard Home.
Academic Coordinator – Whitney Thomas
Whitney can be found in the Bloom classroom, working with each student through the Teen Challenge curriculum on their journey through the Bloom program. Customizing assignments for each young lady that comes into Bloom is a large part of what Whitney does, ensuring that they get the most out of their stay in the program. Whitney also works closely with the New Testament Christian School, our academic authority to ensure that whatever credits are earned while at Bloom are communicated to the home school of our students when returning home. Whitney graduated with her degree in Criminal Justice from Waynesburg University and is currently pursuing her curriculum certification with Teen Challenge USA.
Biblical Counselor –
Ms. Yani (pronounced 'Johnnie') comes to us with experience in ministering to others, helping them to live a purposeful and biblically rooted life. Yani works with both the student and their entire family at Bloom and provides weekly individual, family and group counseling. Our Biblical Counseling is critical to the success of each of our graduates as are the Parent Workshops we provide to our families.
Direct Care –
Each of our direct care staff are compassionate and well-trained women who have a desire to help teen girls discover who they are in Christ! These are the women that are here day in and day out for each young lady in the program – when the students are in good moods – and when they are struggling… when they are happy – and when they are sad… these women pray with, encourage and yes – hold accountable the students in our program to provide the best possible environment for long-lasting change and transformation.

First of all thanks to all of you who have e-mailed me over the last few weeks enquiring as to what was going on and why there had been no new posts. The reason was that I had decided to pack it in after one of the bands/labels to whom I had given lots of free publicity decided to complain to the BPI and cause me all kinds of problems. Needless to say I was rather pissed off about this...I mean, they didn't even have the decency to simply contact me and ask for th offending files to be removed. The first I knew about it was an e-mail from my web host asking me for a response. Angry does not quite describe it! All I have ever tried to do on here is give bands and artists a little bit of a push i the right direction, to get the music out there so that people might hear it and actually go out and make the purchase. Apparently that is wrong.
Ok rant over.
Over the last few weeks I've been recieving e-mails from people who actually do appreciate what I am trying to do here and as a result have decided to continue. I will certainly be more careful about the bands selected to appear on the site and the band who complained......to be honest I don't know if it was the band or the label or even some over zealous manager but that band, their label and anyone I find has anything to do with them will not have their material promoted on Burning World again.
If any band wants any files removing please just send me an e-mail and it will be done.
On with the music.
1. Pale Sunday - She'll Never Be Mine (Matinee) From the album Summertime. I know this has been around a while but I've only just managed to get my hands on a copy. Buy Here
2. Dardanelles - Footsteps (Mosquito's' Tweeter) Taken from the Aussie bands debut album "Mirror Mirror" which will hopefully hit the shops anytime now.
3. Earzumba - Fugitivo (Editions Zero) From the album "Real Ruido Pastizo".
4. Eilen Jewell - High Shelf Booze () It's not very often I actually listen to an album from start to finish. Usually I tend to listen to things three or four tracks at a time but this album did manage to stay on for it's duration. It's called "Letters from sinners & strangers" and you may well see more from this album on this site in the future, as long as no-one comlains of course. I really must calm down about this and stop moaning. Buy Here
5. South Central - Space And The Woods (Bootleg) I can't really tell you much about this. It's the only track on a cd which fell through my letterbox yesterday morning. Exellent stuff though.
6. The Warlocks - Slip Beneath (Tee Pee Records) From the new album "Heavy Deavy Skull Lover". Out October 23rd and you may well be able to order one Here, then again, who knows?
7. The Ting Tings - That 's Not My Name () Oh I know it's a bit cheesy but this 7″ is just so damn catchy. They've got loads of gigs coming up over September/October so check out their My Space page for more details.
8. Little Man Tate - Under Them Smiles (V2) This is the b side to the current single "European Lover". Out this week. Buy Here
9. Gravenhurst - Trust (Warp) Current single. Buy Here
10. FLat 7 - Smile (Robin Guthrie Remix) Quite possibly one of the most beautiful tracks of the year. From the album "Lost In Blue".

Hence, in healthcare settings, cleaning disinfection of surfaces is part of the multi-barrier system for preventing nosocomial infection. Proper risk assessment is the basis for applying disinfection procedures.

Hello my friends, i came back with another question, in the 19 chapter said: 'The armies f Charles and Abd ar-Rahman met in the rolling
champagne country of east-central France, between the towns of Tours and Poitiers, in
October 732." The provence of champagne is located in nothern-east part of France not in east-central of contry and the battle was taking place in poitou province not champange. Is it some kind of georaphic mistake or i didn't understood autor correctly?

What is exfoliation?
Exfoliation is the process whereby your skin sheds dead cells, enabling younger ones, generated deep in the epidermis, to migrate upward to replace them. This shedding of dead skin cells unclogs pores, keeps skin clean, and helps reduce acne breakouts. As we age, the process tends to slow down, resulting in rough, dull looking skin.
Why is it important?
Getting rid of dead cells helps soften wrinkles and brighten skin. It also increases your cell turnover rate, resulting in a clearer, smoother, more even-toned skin. In addition, exfoliation improves penetration and allows for maximum results when it comes to moisturizers and anti-aging treatments
How do I do it?
In general, exfoliation methods fall into one of two categories: chemical (e.g. peels) and mechanical (e.g. micro-dermabrasion).
Chemical exfoliation generally involves scrubs containing some kind of acid. Deep chemical peels use high concentrations of acid, and are generally carried out by a dermatologist or other medical practitioner. Over-the-counter products are also available, which contain lower concentrations of acid, and tend to have more superficial results. Retinoic acid is generally considered to be among the most effective, and is believed to stimulate the production of collagen, in addition to aiding in the removal of dead skin cells. Other acids frequently used for exfoliation include: glycolic acid, alpha or beta hydroxy acid, and salicylic acid.
Mechanical exfoliation sloughs old cells by scrubbing the skin with an abrasive. scrub made of dissolvable granules, such as sea salt or sugar. These gentle abrasives are less likely to inflame skin than scrubs made with crushed apricot pits or walnut shells. One easy and extremely inexpensive way to do this – add a teaspoon of sugar to your facial cleanser, and scrub for a minute (avoiding the delicate skin around the eyes) once or twice a week (or, if your face can handle it, more often),
Alternate between use of chemical and mechanical exfoliation.
Following exfoliation, it is recommended to promptly, while skin is still damp, seal in moisture by following up with an appropriate moisturizing cream/lotion.
Note: The face is the part of the body most sensitive to exfoliation. It is possible to over-exfoliate, which dries and irritates the skin. If you haven't been exfoliating in the past, it is best to start out slow (once a week), and gradually increase the frequency while carefully monitoring the condition of your skin.

What is skin exfoliation? Some of us have seen the dramatic exfoliation of snakes when this creature completely sheds its old skin and emerges with a fresh and new skin. We humans shed our skins also, but in a continuous and much less dramatic fashion. New epidermal cells are continuously produced at the deep layer of the skin (stratum basale) and these cells move up toward the top and eventually die, and shed themselves. This natural regeneration and exfoliation process was fast when we were young, when we had beautiful skin and didn't need exfoliation. Our epidermal cell turnover starts to slow down in our late twenties and early thirties, and our skin starts to look duller and less radiant as the years go by. Routine exfoliation removes the accumulated dead skin cells on the top-most layers and encourages the growth of new skin cells.
This blog was… how do you say it? Relevant!! Finally I've found something which helped me.
Thank you!

The palm oil sector in Indonesia has seen the adoption of zero deforestation commitments by the larger companies in the form of various pledges around No Deforestation, No Peat, and No Exploitation (NDPE). At the same time, at the national and sub-national level, new governance arrangements are emerging for sustainability initiatives involving government, the private sector and other non-state actors. These initiatives have created new forms of governance relationships, most notably a shift in the types of function that were once the sole domain of the state. Some initiatives are independent and formulated outside of the state, but others interact with, and support, state actions. This paper explores the interactions between public and private sectors in the palm oil arena in Indonesia. It examines tensions and complementarities between these sectors, the degree to which, and manner in which, private standards are pushing the sustainability debate and implementation, and the likely outcomes in relation to their design.
