This is a cave map with the approximate path of the "Clearwater Connection adventure caving tour" in Gunung Mulu National Park (Borneo)

The Clearwater Connection circuit is about 8 Km long and 6 hours of walking, scrambling, crawling and squeezing. No rappelling or technical climbing is needed, but knotted ropes are used at numerous places to pass difficult obstacles. The tour enters by Wind Cave and exits by the Clearwater River Cave. This is one of the most interesting caving tour that can be done by park visitors in Mulu.

The Clearwater System is believed to be the largest interconnected cave system in the world by volume and the 9th longest cave in the world at 189 Km (as of 2011).

Hindu Festival in a small village in Jharkhand state (India).

View the video.

Based on the date (April 11, 2013), this may be Ugadi or Gudi Padwa, a celebration of the New Year's Day according to the lunisolar Hindu calendar.

If you can identify the exact name of the Festival or have more info about this ritual, please post a comment!

The Hindu priest of the village walks from a Temple to a nearby pond, over the shoulders of the young men of the village, while a group of older men beat drums with canes.

As soon as the priest has walked on the shoulders of a man, that man runs back to the front of the line and sits on the ground again.

The bare-foot Hindu priest will walk all the way to the pond without touching the ground, and the ceremony will continue near the water.

The Man burns

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Black Rock City (AP) - After the early torching of the Burning Man festival signature figure by an arsonist, the Burning Man Organization decided that all future copies of the "Man" would be made in China and shipped to Nevada.

"We already purchase all our fireworks from China", said Larry Harvey, one of the co-founders of the Burning Man festival. "So it made sense to outsource the Man too.

Chinese-built copies of the 40-foot tall Man will cost us about 10 times less than domestic copies, and this will save us a lot of green stuff", Harvey explained, referring to this year’s "Green Man" theme.

"The Chinese Man will be 100% identical to the domestic version, very combustible and based on the same original blueprints from my good friend John Law. We don't expect any lead poisoning problems", Harvey added.

There has been rumors that the significant cost saving will permit the festival organization to burn a copy of the Man every night of the week, which some see as environmentally questionable as well as a disguised way to prevent any future early torching of the figure."

"The first batch of Chinese-made Man is expected to ship early august 2008, and there are currently no plans to make Chinese copies available to the general public, although this is being discussed in the organization.

Severed cow heads in front of meat market selling beef meat, in Meghalaya (India)

It may sound strange, but in some regions of India, people do eat cows.

I took this series of photos in a village in the East Khasi Hills, a region of the Meghalaya State in North-East India, inhabited by the Khasi people. Khasi people were animist but most converted to Christianity, and they do eat beef.

In this village, several meat shops were selling beef meat and they displayed the severed heads of the slaughtered cows on the ground in front of their shop. They have no fridges so the animals are slaughtered early in the morning, and all the fresh meat and organs must be sold by the end of the day.
