Editor’s letter

Contents

A

s someone who has been a keen reader of My Weekly Preview it’s a great privilege to now be its editor – especially at this pivotal point in the history of the Sunshine Coast.

My philosophy will be simple – to make the magazine a ref ection of the region itself; positive, innovative, proud of its past and excited about the future.

I’m fortunate to have inherited a truly talented team (thank you to my predecessor Jemma for having the magazine in such good shape) determined to deliver stories with honesty, integrity and style. The goal? To keep you informed, entertained and amused.

I love the Sunshine Coast; the beaches and hinterland, our beautiful environment and innovative businesses, our unique festivals and events.

It’s a great place to bring up a family, which is why I choose to call the Sunshine Coast home.

It also provides so many opportunities for great yarns. You need look no further than the remarkable people who make this region so special – they all have a story to tell.

This week we meet some local entrepreneurs who are taking on the multibillion-dollar multinationals in the cut-throat world of cosmetics. It’s not always pretty.

I look forward to talking with you again next week.

Spotlight on natural beauty Savvy Sunshine Coast entrepreneurs have tapped into the growing interest in natural and organic cosmetics and formulated their own skin, hair and make-up ranges. By Sam Walker.

I

t is estimated the average woman applies a chemical cocktail of between 200 and 500 chemicals to her hair and skin on any given day.

Moisturiser, deodorant, foundation, blush, eye shadow, lipstick, shampoo, hairspray, nail polish and perfume – it amounts to quite a chemical concoction when it is all added up.

And it’s big business.

Market research provider Euromonitor International puts the retail value of the beauty and personal care industry at more than $500 billion globally and it is growing – not just for women but also men.

But as awareness grows about potentially harmful ingredients and people increasingly seek quality alternative options, there is an increasing number of businesses muscling into this huge industry and creating a niche with a range of natural and organic products.

Euromonitor International research analyst Emily Cox says demand for natural or organic beauty products has been increasing signif cantly in Australia, in line with the growing demand for organic food and beverages.

“Australians have a strong desire to know what ingredients are included in the products they use and it is common for them to read and understand ingredient labels, having a preference for naturallypositioned products,” Cox says.

“Mainstream brands have picked up on this trend, releasing their own naturally-positioned lines, which has ensured the availability and accessibility of these products.

“Beauty products resonating well with consumers are those offering several functions at the same time; products with natural ingredients, products that are nutritious for the skin, are free from harsh chemicals, ‘greener’ and that do not use animal testing.

“Key natural or organic brands which are readily available in Australia include Sukin, Nature’s Organics, Miranda Kerr’s KORA Organics and Aesop.”

But it is not just the big brands making inroads into this multibillion dollar industry.

With the demand gaining momentum a growing number of Sunshine Coast businesses are making headway in this niche.

Saya McDermott - Saya Saya McDermott was about 18 when she started making her own organic skin care products because she couldn’t f nd natural products that suited her teenage skin.

“The natural products that were available were too rich for my skin, so I just played with a few ingredients that I sort of thought would be really healing and hydrating for my skin,” McDermott says.

She studied natural therapies and a homeopath taught her how to make her own creams, bases, lotions and tinctures.

“I just started playing with it and developed a very basic skin care line for myself.”

Starting a business was not McDermott’s intention at the time but she began handing her products to family and friends and creating products that suited other skin types.

Then she started selling a basic range at Eumundi markets and a shop at Cooroy and it slowly evolved into a business.

“It grew organically in a way,” she says.

She did a diploma in beauty therapy to get a good understanding of the industry “because I really had no clue on that side”.

“Once I completed that I got my factory out at Gateway Drive (Noosaville) and started

You can only imagine the cosmetic industry, you know, all the big shots, they want everything and they see someone small and try and bully their way out to scare you manufacturing properly and doing bigger batches.”

It has been a full-time business for the 32-year-old for about eight years and her range, which has grown to include more than 45 products, is distributed in nearly 70 stores across Australia and New Zealand.

Stacey Hollands – Lust Mineral Cosmetics Coast beauty therapist and makeup artist Stacey Hollands is the latest to join the growing number of local businesses producing a range of natural industry-quality beauty products.

Hollands has developed a range of mineral makeup to meet the needs of women looking for chemical and cruelty free, vegan products without the premium price tag.

The Kawana Island business woman’s Lust Mineral Cosmetics range was recently launched on the market and is made in Australia using 100 per cent Australian minerals.

Hollands says she is always researching beauty products and looking for chemical-free options and when she started her wedding make-up business more than f ve years ago, she was searching for a 100 per cent mineral make-up brand to stock and found a gap in the market.

“There are a lot of cheaper mineral products on the market that people perceive to be mineral make-up but unless it states it is 100 per cent mineral make-up it could have as little as 30 per cent minerals in the product.

“The 100 per cent mineral make-up brands I found were generally upward of $85 for a foundation and I was really searching for quality products my clients enjoyed at a reasonable price,” Hollands says.

When her dad was diagnosed with cancer in 2011, Hollands’ passion to create a make-up range free from harsh chemicals grew.

“When my dad became ill, I started researching ingredients in make-up products, I wanted to know what I was putting on every day and the effects it had on my skin.

“My dad def nitely inspired me and made me more determined than

ever to develop a quality mineralbased make-up range that is 100 per cent Australian minerals.”

She says Lust Mineral Cosmetics is a non-comedogenic, veganfriendly formula that provides fantastic coverage on all skin types and contains SPF 15+ to protect the skin from the sun.

“Lust Mineral Cosmetics is designed to enhance natural beauty and help develop healthy, radiant skin,” she says.

“It is free from harsh chemicals, parabens and artif cial fragrances so the skin will be healthier and less irritated, perfect for those with sensitive skin.”

Hollands has spent two years developing the range.

Her dad passed away in February but he did get to see her f nished product.

For a limited time, Hollands’

But it hasn’t always been easy.

As a young player in an extremely competitive multibillion dollar industry she says one of the challenges was being bullied from within the industry.

“You can only imagine the cosmetic industry, you know, all the big shots, they want everything and they see someone small and try and bully their way out to scare you.

“But I’ve had good support.”

McDermott says she has learnt from her parents who run their own business and has watched them stick to their guns through challenges.

“It’s worked for them. They’ve shown me if you’re strong and you

persevere it does work out.”

And it helps that there is increasing demand for natural skin, hair and beauty products.

“There’s always been, I think, a growing demand on natural products in general,” she says.

“I think everyone’s becoming a lot more aware of chemicals and what’s in products and where they’re from as well derived from.”

“So there’s def nitely a growing demand because there’s a growing awareness.”

She says she avoids using any unsustainable ingredients and while her range is all natural, her next step is to get all her products

certif ed organic.

“I think that’s really going to evolve a lot in the industry.”

She hasn’t done it to date because of the cost and complexity but is ready to take that next step.

McDermott says it is great that more businesses are creating natural and organic beauty products and it is better for everyone.

“You know the ingredients half these companies use … down the line (they) have been tested on animals.

“So if that is eradicated, I think that is massive.”

week, production has grown too big for her to make the range herself so she contracts it to a Noosa manufacturer who exclusively makes her products.

But she says the most amazing part of her journey is creating a product that people love and receiving positive feedback.

“I’ve got such lovely customers that write me letters and send me cards and emails saying thanks for making such a beautiful product.

“That’s really lovely and I think that’s probably the best thing out of all of it.” continued over>

Julie and Luke Charters – Everescents Julie Charters bought Coolum-based hair care business Everescents in partnership with her husband Luke in 2007.

Everescents is an organic hair care range using certif ed organic products.

The business was established on the Coast in 2003 and was a part-time operation with three organic shampoos and conditioners in the range when Charters took it over.

“I loved it,” she says.

Then her husband suggested making a real go of it and expanding it and the pair hasn’t looked back.

It quickly outgrew their home and they moved into commercial premises.

Today they both work full-time in the business, and have six employees.

And their range, which is sold exclusively to salons, has expanded to include treatments and styling products, hair spray, serums and

argan oil and they are about to release their sixth shampoo and conditioner. “(We make) pretty much anything you’ll f nd in a salon environment but obviously we do it without all the chemicals, which makes it a little bit tricky,” she says.

“It’s been awesome.”

Charters says her mum gave her a very alternative upbringing and it resonated with her so she has always been interested in natural, chemical-free products.

When the couple f rst bought the business, they looked into exporting and were excited about getting their products overseas but there were many challenges. One of the biggest was the logistics of transporting such a natural product in shipping containers that can reach very high temperatures.

“At the end of the day there are so many salons here – 26,000 salons in Australia alone,” she says.

“It’s big enough for us.

“We’re so busy just in our own

backyard and we’re very passionate about the eco footprint.”

She says many of their products have come from demand – people asking if they can make certain things and they then liaise with technicians at the Brisbane factory, which makes their products.

“We say we want to do this product but all the market leaders that are doing it use these three toxic chemicals – we want to use natural ones.”

When they get the lab batch back they send it to salons for testing before it hits the market.

“I’ve noticed, since we’ve had the business, there’s a lot more people looking for organic products,” she says.

Their range is made entirely in Australia including all the packaging. Everescents is fully licensed with animal testing monitor Choose Cruelty Free and most of their products are vegan, except the few that use organic beeswax.

Coast visitor expenditure to increase to $3.9 billion by 2020

S

unshine Coast Destination has launched its Destination Tourism Plan, outlining its direction and policies for growing tourism to meet the State Government’s target of increasing overnight visitor expenditure to $3.9 billion by 2020.

The development of the DTP followed extensive collaboration with Tourism and Events Queensland and key stakeholders from the local tourism industry.

It is estimated the visitor economy generates $2.7 billion of direct expenditure into the destination, which in turn supports direct and indirect employment of over 35,000 people.

As part of the launch of the Destination Marketing Plan, SCDL announced its vision that: “By 2020, the Sunshine Coast tourism region will be globally recognised as Australia’s premier revitalising holiday destination, where the blend of coastal and hinterland experiences showcase the region’s

contemporary beach culture.”

CEO of SCDL, Simon Ambrose, says it is the region’s diverse range of attractions that give it the edge on many other coastal destinations around Australia.

“The Sunshine Coast has rightfully been recognised for its outstanding beaches, but if we are to grow visitor numbers signif cantly it is vital that we show that the region has far more to attract and retain travellers than just our beaches,” he says.

“Visitor growth in the last f nancial year to June 2014 was encouraging, with the latest National Visitor Survey f gures recording a 4.6 per cent increase compared to the previous year, but we will need to grow this even faster if we are to meet the government’s ambitious target.”

Ambrose says the priorities identif ed in the DTP include: • A major boost to digital and niche marketing • Extend lengths of stay and target

Mooloolaba beach

mid-week stays • Major growth in public and business events • Emphasis on nature based and ‘immersive’ experiences • Improved air and road access.

“The Sunshine Coast can offer

everything from an indulgent beach holiday to a secluded rainforest trek all within 45 minutes of landing at Sunshine Coast Airport,” Ambrose says.

“We are growing our reputation as one of the country’s best food producers, with a rich collection of f ne restaurants, high-quality cooking schools and artisan producers. We have a vibrant arts and entertainment scene, and our events program is one of the most comprehensive in Australia.

Tourism minister Jann Stuckey says the Sunshine Coast DTP will be a vehicle used to capitalise on key opportunities to grow the region’s tourism industry and help align strategies, available resources and unify the long-term objectives of industry and all levels of government.

Ambrose says the region will announce a wide range of new events in the lead up to the 50th anniversary of the establishment of the Sunshine Coast in 2016.

Reality Bites literary festival entices book lovers

L

iterary lovers are in for a four-day treat and a healthy dose of love when the Reality Bites Festival kicks off next week.

Love is a major theme at the seventh annual Sunshine Coast hinterland literary festival, which has added two venues and an extra day to its program and has expanded to include more than 30 authors.

Event manager Annette Hughes says the festival has outgrown its home at the Cooroy Library and this year events will be split between Cooroy and Eumundi.

Award-winning journalist David Leser will tell the story of the making of a man through the great loves of his life.

If you love food, you’ll love Coast local, Zane Hacker’s tales of high adventure as a chef in Antarctica.

Then the language of love goes under the microscope as panellists Mandy Sayer, Anna Campbell, Tony Birch and David Leser interrogate the literary use and abuse of the ‘L’ word.

There are many highlights across the weekend and Hughes expects the Celebration Event to be particularly popular.

The Celebration Event is a presentation of Mark Tredinnick’s True Story Award and a special “in conversation” with Keelen Mailman, which will be held on Saturday night.

Mailman, who grew up witnessing alcoholism, child abuse, racism and domestic violence, became the f rst Aboriginal woman in Australia to manage a cattle property.

This year she published her memoir, The Power Of Bones.

Workshops Thursday October 23 Researching History with Coast author Anna Campbell, 9am–12pm – $100/$85 The Little Red Writing Workshop with Mark Trednnick, 1-4pm – $100/$85 Friday October 24 Nature Writing with Inga Simpson, 9am-12pm – $100/$85 The Agile Writer with Meg Vann, 1-2.30pm – $70/$60 Saturday October 25 Pitching Clinic with industry experts Annette Hughes, Matthew Ricketson and Alexandra Payne, 9-10.30am Free. Bookings essential.

Literary Lunch The Reality Bites Festival has teamed up with the Sunshine Coast Business Women’s Network to host the SCBWN Literary Lunch with Maxine McKew. The former journalist and politician, turned author, will be the guest speaker at the lunch, talking about her book Class Act – Ending the Education Wars.

McKew’s book invites ref ection on how we replicate success in a fragmented education system and reverse the decline in student performance.

The winner of the Reality Bites young Women’s Writers Award will also be announced at the lunch. The two-course meal will be held at Noosa Springs Resort from 11.30am on Friday, October 24.

Tickets $60 members and $70 non-members.

To book visit scbwn.org.au or call 0412 525 854.

Telling True Stories with Matthew Ricketson, 12-3pm – $100/$85 Keelen Mailman

Mailman, who grew up witnessing alcoholism, child abuse, racism and domestic violence, became the f rst Aboriginal woman in Australia to manage a cattle property

“It’s a real story of courage and people love those stories of achieving against the odds,” Hughes says.

Mailman’s talk follows Forgotten War, a session discussing the history of white settlement in Australia and the Black War that took place in Tasmania.

Hughes says the program has grown this year thanks to an injection of funding from a variety of sources including local tourism bodies, which are recognising the value the festival brings to the region.

Beautiful endangered Galapagos penguin < Pinnacle Rock, Island of Bartolome, Galapagos

TOTALLY WILD

Swim with a penguin, eye off an iguana or befriend a blue-footed booby. Nature at its weirdest and most wonderful awaits you in the Galapagos Islands. By Mark Muckenfuss

P

enguins are awfully quick in the water. They may look awkward as they toddle about on land, but underwater they flash by, slightly bobbing as they go.

Swimming with a penguin pretty much topped the list for my Galapagos Islands visit.

Like much of the Galapagos wildlife, the penguins here are an anomaly – the only population of the f ightless aquatic birds north of the equator. Along with blue-footed boobies, marine iguanas, giant tortoises, albatrosses and a host of unique f nches, it’s one of the animals people venture west of the Ecuadorian coast to see.

And like many of these animals, the penguins seem pretty much unperturbed by the presence of humans. The one I saw didn’t swim close enough to be touched, but it did whip by just beyond arm’s reach. Similarly, on visits to other islands, boobies and frigatebirds sat comfortably in their nesting areas while we snapped photos a few feet away. Iguanas lounged like they owned the place, which they kind of do. And sea lions draped themselves on seaside beaches and rested on walkways like stray dogs.

Finding wildlife is not a problem.

But each of the archipelago’s many islands – 13 to 18 major islands, depending upon how you

def ne major, a handful of smaller islands and just over 100 rocks and islets – has its own unique environs, attracting its own combination of the area’s animals and, often, a collection of f ora not found anywhere else.

The biggest decision to make when planning a trip is which islands offer the combinations you want to see and whether to take a cruise. Most cruise boats are smaller, with space from 16 to 20 passengers, with larger ones accommodating as many as 100.

Cruising is one of the most popular strategies for visitors, but you can also stay on four of the islands, and venture out on day trips to others.

Most cruises offer the all-inclusive, pre-planned experience that allows you to sit back and let someone else worry about the logistics. Cruise boats can also access a number of places unavailable to day-trip operators.

Going land-based can be a lot easier on your wallet. Most day trips to other islands run from

about $160 to $215 per person (dive tours are more). In Santa Cruz Island’s Puerto Ayora, the largest town in the Galapagos, there are dozens of tour agencies competing for your business.

Hotel prices are surprisingly reasonable. In Puerto Ayora, we stayed in a three-person bungalow at a quaint establishment with a large pool, comfortable lounging areas and an impressive breakfast (included) for $115 per night. Our accommodations on Isabela Island were more rustic but comfortable, and cost about $55 per night.

The walkable downtown area of Puerto Ayora is a small strip of hotels, restaurants, tour companies and gift shops. One of its best features can be found after dark, when the kiosks (small open cafes) along Bordados El Alquimista f ll the street with tables and chairs, creating a festive open-air restaurant where the fresh catches of the day are the featured fare. The local style is to cook the f sh well done.

But most people don’t come here to eat the f sh. They come to swim with them, as well as the sea turtles, giant rays and the rest of the rich aquatic life the islands have to offer. And the best way to do that is to book a tour.

The entire Galapagos archipelago is a national park. Every tour, whether it’s an eight-day cruise or a half-day hike, has to be led by one of the park’s 500 guides.

Maria Belen Egas, the head of volunteer programs for Galapagos National Park, headquartered in Puerto Ayora, says guides have to take two months of courses through university extension programs and periodically update their certif cates.

She says a recent law requires guides to be from the Galapagos.

The national park, which is celebrating its 55th year, works with the adjacent Darwin Research Centre, local institutions and NGOs to identify threats to the indigenous plants and

animals, work on restoration projects and educate the public, especially residents, Egas says.

If you go: GETTING THERE: It’s easiest to travel to Ecuador’s capital Quito. All f ights out of Quito stop in Guayaquil on the way.

PLAYING THERE: Be prepared to pay a $108 national park entrance fee, in cash, upon arrival. A transit control card is also required.

Don’t lose it; you’ll need to turn this back in when you leave.

Baltra is the most used entry port. A free bus takes you to a ferry bridging the narrow channel between Baltra and Santa Cruz islands. From there, it’s a 45-minute ride by bus or taxi to Puerto Ayora.

PROPERTY VS SHARES IN RETIREMENT The great challenge of the Retiree.

How does a Retiree invest to ensure they enjoy: 1. Growth: we want our investments to get bigger in value 2. Income: we need a source of income for retirement 3. Safety: we need to protect our capital

We hear about diversification but how does a Retiree structure their investments to take advantage of the good stuff and avoid, or at the very least, minimise, the risks on the downside?

On Wednesday, 22nd October at 6pm we are hosting a workshop to look at the pros and cons of both asset classes – Property and Shares – and how to use them to

achieve your financial goals, in retirement. Most people have a good understanding of the long term benefits of property and shares when you are working and bringing in a regular pay packet, but how do you manage when you stop earning a living from external sources and need your investments to feed you?

News Previews

USC students join in CBD fundraising event

S

tudents of the University of the Sunshine Coast have immersed themselves in realworld practice to create the fundraising event A Night at the Old Courthouse, in collaboration with the Maroochydore Revitalisation Association.

The Old Courthouse jail cells in Maroochydore will be transformed into a cocktail lounge with art, food stalls, live music and a pop-up bar on October 17 to raise funds for the MRA’s economic development plan to help rejuvenate Maroochydore’s CBD. The f ve f nal year students have worked with

the MRA to engage local businesses and deliver the fundraiser as part of their coursework.

USC public relations student Sarah Bond says the group is aware of the MRA’s positive impact on the Maroochydore business district.

“The Maroochydore Revitalisation Association currently implements a range of initiatives such as Nights on Ocean markets and street installations as part of their aim to rejuvenate the precinct,” she says.

MRA president James Birrell says the implementation of the economic development plan will boost the economy and create a better lifestyle for the region.

“The economic development plan will result in a strategic direction for the precinct so we can all grow and prosper together and ensure a vibrant cultural business and community experience.”

The USC students also worked with a local crowd funding platform to collect donations online.

Local businesses have donated a range of prizes, including the opportunity to win two nights accommodation at any Oaks Hotels and Resorts in Australia.

For more information and to RSVP visit mra.org.au.

PREPARING FOR STORMS As summer approaches, the State Government is set to roll out a new campaign to ensure Queenslanders are storm ready.

Community Recovery and Resilience minister David Crisafulli says this year’s RACQ Get Ready television and radio ads will prompt families to prepare their homes.

“Storms can strike hard and often with little warning in Queensland, damaging homes and property, as well as livelihoods and the broader economy,” he says.

For more information on how to be prepared for storm season visit getready.qld.gov.au.

Birth poster wins national award

A

University of the Sunshine Coast honours student has won a prestigious national university award for his research poster into the effects of traumatic childbirths on fathers.

Psychology student Christian Inglis took out the Best Poster Award at Posters in Parliament, an exhibition that celebrates undergraduate student research at Parliament House in Canberra.

Senior academics from various universities chose Inglis’ work from 33 f nalists.

Inglis says posters are a practical way to present research because f ndings can be viewed graphically and people don’t have to read pages of information to understand.

“When I started my research, I was surprised to f nd that only seven other research papers had been published on the topic of the diff culties fathers face following traumatic childbirths,” he says.

“My research found that 11.5 per cent of fathers experience clinically signif cant symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder after a traumatic childbirth, and almost 20 per cent suffer moderate to extremely severe depression.

“The feedback at the event was wonderful with quite a few politicians and professors congratulating me on my work and agreeing that it is a topic that needs further investigation.”

Inglis says he will continue his research and hopes to gain funding in the future.

Bits and Bytes >> Stir Kinetic

Head to Paul Hamilton’s website www.appsbypaulhamilton.com to f nd out more.

You may want to sit down for this. Then get up. Then sit down again. That’s because there’s a desk out there that tells you to do exactly that. The Stir Kinetic is probably the world’s f rst ‘smart’ desk. It has a built-in touch screen, so you can see this either as a desk with a smartphone in it or a smartphone with a desk attached. Why does a desk need to be smart?

It has motors and needs smarts to control them. The motors raise and lower the desk surface.

You program it with the height you need for sitting and the height you need for standing. It moves, quietly, between them. The other reason the desk needs smarts is that you don’t have them. Well, not you, in particular, but people like you. Apparently we know that sitting all day is not good for us, but when we get motorised desks, we don’t use them very much. Stir was founded by a former Apple engineer, making it sort of like the Nest thermostat of desks. Both are everyday objects imbued with top-notch software. The Stir knows if it’s at the standing or sitting level and keeps track of how long you’ve been in that position. At set intervals, it will tell you to switch positions. It does so by ‘breathing’ - it gently moves up an inch, then settles down again.

Nothing further happens unless you tap the touch screen twice to conf rm you want to change positions. The Stir Kinetic costs $3890.

PLANS LOOK BRIGHT FOR THE SUNSHINE COAST’S NEXT GENERATION

Community Information Sessions Coolum Community Centre, Park Street.

18th Oct, 10am – 2pm & 24th Oct, 4pm – 8pm.

Planning has commenced on a new development at Yaroomba with the potential to deliver major economic and social benefits to the Sunshine Coast region, including new jobs, community facilities and a major boost to local tourism.

Located on a 20-hectare site along the David Low Way and designed by renowned sustainability developer Sekisui House, the development could represent one of the largest private infrastructure investments on the Sunshine Coast.

While a proposal has yet to be finalised and an application not expected to be lodged until the end of 2015, the development could feature a five star hotel, boutique retail and public precinct as well as residential, including apartments and aged care options.

The developer will continue to work closely with Council and the community to determine the best approach for the site.

FACT CHECK

The dunes are not part of the site, so they can’t be built on.

FACT

Sand and parabolic dunes will be built on and destroyed.

Buildings will be set back 188m from beach. They will have minimal visible impact due to the sand dunes.

Modelling indicates no shadowing on beach.

High-rise buildings will ruin the view for beachgoers and cause shadows on the beach.

Current plan has only 1,470 apartments, 250-bed hotel and 3,000m2 of retail.

High-density project with 2,300 apartments, 300 villas, 450-bed hotel and 35,000m2 of retail.

Sekisui House is not expected to lodge DA until the end of 2015.

Development Application (DA) has already been lodged.

Increased building heights for some of the site would provide 85% open green space for wider community to enjoy.

Low -rise development increasing site coverage to 40% is the best outcome for the site.

FICTION

ARTIST’S IMPRESSION

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS: • Sekisui House is committed to delivering an environmentally considerate development.

• Initial flora and fauna studies indicate no significant species identified on the site.

• No development on the sand and parabolic dunes – they are not a part of the site.

• All proposed buildings are set back 188m from the water’s edge.

• Existing vegetation buffer along David Low Way to remain.

• World-class sustainability system to reduce waste, CO2 emissions and demand on infrastructure.

POTENTIAL BENEFITS:

Social & Lifestyle

• 85% of site preserved as open green space.

• Community facilities may include parks, picnic and BBQ areas.

Economic RPS Social and Economic Evaluation reports economic benefits to include: • $1 billion worth of construction • $25 million per annum direct contribution to Gross Regional Product • $73 million per annum tourist expenditure • $23.5 million per annum resident expenditure.

Jobs • Jobs growth – estimated 4,500 jobs during construction and over 620 permanent jobs created if project goes ahead.

• Indirect creation of a further 1,500 jobs with local suppliers and businesses.

Out of the blue These clouds normally form in groups and if you see them on a warm, humid morning you may get some storms in the afternoon.

High level clouds form above six kilometres and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t produce precipitation. The most common type of high-level cloud is cirrus.

These clouds are made of ice and appear thin and wispy. If you see these clouds it generally means there is a change on the way.

Cirrostratus are thin clouds that form in sheets high in the atmosphere. They usually cover the whole sky and the sun and moon can be seen through them. They are made of ice crystals and normally mean rain or snow is less than 24 hours away.

Cirrocumulus clouds are also made of ice crystals and can form in ripples. If you see these clouds in winter it can mean f ne but cold weather, and in the tropics perhaps an approaching cyclone.

Have fun cloud spotting.

WIN News weather presenter and meteorologist Hannah McEwan is cloud spotting this week.

A

lto clouds are mid-level clouds, forming between 2.5 and six kilometres.

Altostratus clouds are made of water droplets and ice crystals and cover the entire sky.

This type of cloud brings rain or snow and sometimes forms ahead of storms. If the cloud is thin, the sun can appear as though you are looking at it through hazy glass.

Altocumulus are puffy mid-level cumulus clouds, and are grey and white and made of water droplets.

RBA mulls macroprudential tools

Justin Scattini is from Ord Minnett in Buderim

W

hen addressing the current strength in domestic housing, particularly in Sydney and Melbourne, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) noted at the recent Senate hearing that people should “expect a preliminary announcement before year end” on macroprudential policy. In assessing policy, we believe regulators need to distinguish whether current house price inflation is being driven by excess investor demand for housing or housing credit – the former is more likely, given investor credit growth is still operating at modest levels relative to historical run rates. With the RBA not “ruling out more than one

announcement on curbs” we expect the focus to be on serviceability buffers and interest-only lending.

Using RBA Freedom of Information disclosures released in May, we ascertained a clearer view on the RBA’s outlook on each of the macroprudential policy measures available. The result is a clear preference for interest buffers as opposed to loan to value ratio (LVR) limits, given, in part, the latter may provide material headwinds to non-speculative f rst home buyer activity due to larger deposit requirements.

To consider the possible effects of increased interest rate buffers let’s use the example of Westpac, which uses a serviceability buffer (1.85 per cent), and an interest rate f oor (6.80 per cent) to assess loan applications.

The current interest rate f oor is around the 10 year average mortgage rate (in accordance with APRA guidelines). However, since 2008 the mortgage rate has fallen 3.5 per cent to 5.0 per cent, but the interest rate

buffer applied has only increased 0.45 per cent to 1.85 per cent.

Therefore, WBC was assessing debt serviceability at 10 per cent in 2008 – over 300 basis points higher than today. Obviously an increase in this buffer rate would reduce an applicant’s borrowing capacity.

Assessing limits on interest-only lending may be an important area for regulatory focus when considering the strong uplift in approvals seen in recent months and RBA commentary that the “apparent increase in the use of interest-only loans by both owner-occupiers and investors might also be consistent with increasingly speculative motives behind current housing demand.”

Given interest expenses on investment property are taxdeductible, historically, investors have had stronger incentives than owneroccupiers to take out interest-only loans. To this extent the RBA has noted about 64 per cent of loan approvals to investors are interestonly loans compared with about 31

per cent to owner-occupiers. Limiting interest only loans may go a long way to reducing systemic risk associated with speculative housing demand with the RBA noting “if the loan balance is not declining via principal repayment, it is more likely that it will exceed the property value (be in negative equity) if housing prices should fall. There is also a risk that the borrower could face diff culty servicing the higher (principal and interest) repayments after the interest-only period ends.”

Whatever policy is introduced (if any) the RBA “don’t want to kill the investor market”. Instead it wants to touch the brakes a little bit to avoid an accident. With the unwinding of the resources boom Australia needs a healthy and sustainable housing market more than ever.

7 Biggest Mistakes you could be making that could cause Permanent Depression, Anxiety or ADHD

It is aalso suitable for aall sk skin types.

Are you not as happy as you used to be? Is stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, or ADHD overwhelming you? Are anti-depressants not working for you?

Do you f nd yourself irritated, not able to feel excited, or constantly thinking negatively? Do you have trouble sleeping, your mind won’t stop racing, or you wake too often through the night? Do you get anxiety at bed time where you can hear your heart beating while your head is on the pillow?

We had an incredible response from all who were logged on for the webinar we ran about one of my favourite topics – Solving the puzzle that creates Anxiety Depression & ADHD. When you put it all together, it all makes sense.

There are 7 key underlying triggers which can cause all of these symptoms including anxiety, nervousness, depression, or lack of excitement and motivation for life. Stress feels overwhelming, and little upsets cause feelings of anger. Palpitations, excessive heat in the body, tingling in the hands or feet, irritable bowel syndrome, foggy brain and lack of concentration including ADHD in children, can also be present. Often these symptoms have been going on for months, years or even decades.

You may suffer just a few of the above symptoms or perhaps all of them.

Got a sugar craving? If you can’t get the idea of chocolate or lollies out of your head, first reach for a piece of fruit. Slice up some apple and dip these into a tablespoon of nut butter, or add ricotta to a couple of dried figs. These might be enough to satisfy the craving without the guilt trip afterwards.

f you are over 65 and have had a fall recently, researchers suggest you try balance exercises.

The University of Sydney has launched a program called LiFE (Lifestyle-Integrated Functional Exercise) to encourage people to do balance and lower limb strength activities throughout the day whenever the opportunity arises.

The LiFE manuals are the result of research by the university published in the British Medical Journal.

In the study, they recruited 317 people over the age of 70 who had suffered from recent falls. They compared those taking part in the LIFE program with a control group doing a gentle placebo exercise program three times a week.

The 7 key common triggers that affect your brain, cause a compounding effect that your brain cannot deal with, which leads to long term, and then permanent brainwave pattern changes, affecting your personality, mood, and ability to think and cope, permanently!

Fortunately it can be quite easy to address.

Patients who have suffered depression for four decades, have reported to have improved out of sight after one month and other patients have shown improvement after just one week of treatment, including sufferers of Major Depressive Disorder, and children with ADHD, who have then been able to reduce their medication in less than 7 weeks, and these results are permanent and medication free!

Proven with testing, these steps improve brain function immeasurably, without the help of medication, in adults and children. To f nd out more, call the centre and arrange a free half hour consultation, or view the webinar on our website.

A webinar is simply a seminar that you can see on the internet. You just register through the website and it will play for you on your computer. It’s easy and it’s free. Register now for 7 Steps to Freedom from Anxiety, Depression & ADHD at www. advancedwellness.com.au.

3 ways to use asparagus

From Brightwater Hotel’s executive chef Damien Grimes

MUST TRY SEAFOOD SPAGHETTI Feel like a great seafood dish?

Then head to the Maroochy Surf Club and try the chef’s signature seafood spaghetti. This delectable dish features a selection of sautéed prawns, scallops, squid and fish with garlic herbs and vincotto. It’s garnished with half shell scallops and shaved parmesan.

• Using a peeler, shave fine slices lengthways along the asparagus, season and mix with some orange segments and spinach leaves for a light, summer salad. Perfect with some fresh grilled whiting.

• Rub with olive, salt and pepper then grill on the barbecue. While still warm, squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the spears. Serve with freshly grilled crisp-skinned chicken thighs.

• Wrap each spear with some pancetta, grill on the barbecue or bake in the oven. Serve with some garlic mayonnaise as a canapé or appetiser.

with variations of variations with some of its most recent model releases. Such as the car that’s been in our driveway this past week – the 4-Series GranCoupe.

Now, those who have been paying attention will know that the new 4-Series Beemer is, in fact, a two-door version of the volumeselling 3-Series sedan.

Or so we thought. But not so fast.

Because this latest iteration of the 4-Series has not two doors – or even four – but f ve. The GranCoupe is a hatchback – a particularly pretty one that’s very satisfying to drive.

As well as several versions of this smart little sedan, plus the related 4-Series coupe and cabrios, there’s also the 3-Series GT. The 4-Series GranCoupe takes its inspiration, and its name, from the similarly-styled four-door ‘GranCoupe’ version of the plush 6-Series.

These four-door coupes have gained quite a bit of traction in the market. Benz started the trend with its swoopy, four-door CLS and Audi,

trying to buy a European luxury car.

So many models – so little time.

like BMW, has come up with its own versions, like the f ve-door A7 and A5 Sportback models.

So these coupes of many doors are making an impact even though the word ‘coupe’ literally means a shortened, two-door car. Anyway, enough of the semantics.

Happily, the 4-Series GranCoupe is such an impressive car that we’re prepared to overlook the naming acrobatics.

This hatchback model has further whet our appetite. It looks, drives and feels like a slightly sharper, sportier version of the 3-Series, which continues to attract buyers in big numbers.

We tested the 428i model, f tted with a two-litre, turbocharged four-cylinder engine and velvety eight-speed automatic transmission.

The 428 sits towards the top of the 4-Series family tree, above the lesser-powered four-cylinder turbo 420i and 420d (diesel) – and just below the f agship 435i with its six-cylinder, twin-turbo petrol engine.

Its price of just over $80-grand puts it right into the sweet spot of

This hatchback model has further whet our appetite. It looks, drives and feels like a slightly sharper, sportier version of the 3-Series, which continues to attract buyers in big numbers

this ever-growing, ever-more aff uent mid-sized European market.

Previously, any BMW with the ‘28i’ designation in its nameplate packed one of the brand’s legendary six-cylinder engines beneath the bonnet but BMW has adopted turbo-charging as its preferred way of improving fuel-eff ciency without affecting performance.

This engine certainly achieves that. It’s punchy from low revs, spins without compromise and feels ever-ready for action regardless of the driving situation. It even emits an exhaust note that rivals the much-loved soundtrack of those BMW straight sixes.

By selecting sport mode on the centre console drive selector button, throttle response and transmission set-up receives some additional urgency, making the 428i an even more enjoyable proposition.

And, thanks to BMW’s Eff cient Dynamics technology, including a fuel-saving stop-start system, it does so while achieving an impressive 6.4 litres per 100 kilometre average thirst. That’s highly impressive for a

[ vehicle with 180 kilowatts and grunty 350 Newton metres of torque.

The engine is not the only thing carried over from the 3-Series â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the chassis and cockpit of the 4-Series is also very familiar. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mostly a good thing, although Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d argue the 3-Series and 4-Series interior doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel as premium as you might expect from a car in this segment.

BMW has continued to hone its iDrive cabin management system to the point where itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basically f awless these days but it takes a while to learn some functions, even those as simple as choosing a new radio frequency.

Our other mild criticism of the 4-Series is one rarely levelled at BMW â&#x20AC;&#x201C; its steering. The slight disappointment we felt with the way the new 3-Series steers and handles is mirrored in this model.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not bad, by any means but it provides nowhere near the same feel and feedback as previous models, which helped sustain BMWâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Ultimate Driving Machineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; motto.

Still, those are relatively mild criticisms of what

remains a very impressive and desirable machine.

The GranCoupe delivers a car thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nearly as pretty as the two-door version, while offering the practicality of four doors and a large, easy-to-access cargo hatch. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll f nd a very useful 480 litres of cargo space beneath that sloping rear window.

Despite those raking lines, BMW has managed to extract decent front and rear-seat headroom in the GranCoupe, although larger occupants might feel a little claustrophobic in the rear seats if there for extended periods.

Signif cantly, BMW has priced the GranCoupe identically alongside the corresponding 4-Series two-door models.

The two versions are almost identical, too, in exterior dimensions.

For those wanting even more room to move BMW offers the 3-Series GT model, with greatly enhanced interior space and the same punchy engine and transmission, with surprisingly similar handling.

Just like those Chinese restaurants, BMW has something to please everyone.

WORD ON THE STREET

RACQ video aims to keep older drivers safe

T

he RACQ has released tips for Queensland’s older drivers, as part of a new campaign, to help them feel safe and confident behind the wheel.

The motoring body has released a YouTube video identifying warning signs to look out for and advice for older drivers and their families.

RACQ education off cer David Terry says motorists must be aware of their physical capabilities and how they can affect their driving, particularly if driving is considered the key to their independence.

“Some older motorists in particular can feel a

little unsure when driving and may avoid certain routes or travelling at certain times of day as their vision and f exibility decrease,” Terry says.

“If you’re an older driver and you are concerned about your ability to drive, we recommend visiting your GP. “Many age-related and medical conditions do not mean older drivers have to stop driving altogether, quite often it may be a case of not driving at certain hours, or wearing appropriate eyewear.”

In Queensland, drivers over the age of 75, as well as drivers with medical conditions affecting their ability to drive, are required to carry a medical certif cate when driving.

Terry says the RACQ is committed to seeing all Queenslanders survive their drive and has developed tools to help build conf dence for older drivers.

“These include post-licence practical driver assessments, a self-assessment questionnaire and the Years Ahead program to assist older motorists to drive safely for longer.

Families are encouraged to check in with their loved ones, start the conversation, and if they have any concerns encourage them to see a GP. To watch the video, visit the RACQ off cial YouTube page and search for ‘When is it time to strop driving?’

Speed machine makes Oz debut Word is, the meanest Abarth ever is locked and loaded for its Australian debut, with customers able to order the 140kW 695 Biposto through Fiat dealers. Officially the fastest street-legal Abarth produced, the 695 is a fusion of style and performance. It weighs just 997 kilograms, has a 1.4 T-Jet engine and can reach speeds of 230 kilometres per hour. It’s also the first time a street-legal production car can be optioned with a race-ready gearbox featuring dog rings derived from racing, making upwards gear changes so rapid that expert drivers don’t need to use the clutch.

Make a claim The ATO has lots of rules about rental expenses and what you can claim. MPP investigates

O

ne of the appealing aspects of property as an investment is that the Australian Tax Office offers incentives to invest. If you are planning to become a property investor, whether it’s just with one property or multiple homes, it pays to get on top of rental expenses you can claim at tax time. Here is a rundown to get you started.

WHAT YOU CAN’T CLAIM According to the ATO there are a few types of expenses that you just can’t claim at tax time, including costs related to buying and selling the property; expenses that the tenant, and not you, pays, such as electricity bills; and expenses that are incurred when the property is being used by you and not a tenant.

WHAT YOU CAN CLAIM NOW You can claim a deduction in the f nancial year you incurred the expense for quite a few things, such as advertising for tenants; bank charges; gardening and cleaning; council rates; insurance; pest control; bookkeeping fees; stationery; and phone calls. You can also claim things like body corporate fees, repairs and maintenance, interest on your mortgage and travel expenses, but there are lots of rules that apply to these, so it’s worth checking in with the ATO to f nd out more. For example, the payment made to the body corporate for administration and general purpose sinking funds can be claimed at the time that you make the payment. However, a payment made for a special purpose fund to pay for a particular expenditure (such as repainting the building) may not be tax deductible.

REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE Some expenses for repairs and property maintenance may be tax deductible. These repairs must relate directly to wear and tear or damage that occurred as a result of you renting out the property. So if a fence is damaged during a storm and needs to be replaced, or one of your neighbours’ trees falls down and damages the guttering, you can claim the expense at tax time.

Where it gets tricky is when you make changes to the property that are considered ‘capital in nature’.

For example, between tenants you decide to repaint the lounge room, replace the stove because it is getting old, and replace a couple of doors that are getting old and grubby. These expenses are not tax deductible. It’s tricky working out what is and isn’t deductible in relation to these expenses, and many owners have been caught out thinking they can claim thousands of dollars when they can’t, so be sure to seek advice from your accountant before embarking on a property revamp.

WHAT YOU CAN CLAIM IN THE FUTURE The ATO says there are three types of propertyrelated expenses that might be claimed over more than one f nancial year. These include borrowing expenses, amounts for the decline in value of depreciating assets, and capital works deductions.

Borrowing expenses might include loan establishment fees, title search and mortgage broker fees, stamp duty and the costs of preparing and f ling mortgage documents. Depreciating assets relate to things like carpets, furniture and f ttings, and there are complicated formulas to work out

what assets are covered and how they depreciate in value. Get advice from your accountant on this one, as they can lead to big savings. Capital works relates to construction expenditure such as adding a room, a garage or a patio. These deductions tend to be spread over many years, and again it’s a tricky area where it pays to get sound advice about what is covered and is not.

The subject of rental property expenses can be confusing, even for seasoned investors and landlords, so it pays to get advice from your accountant before stepping into any open homes, and once you are a landlord, don’t forget to save all your receipts on even the smallest expenses just in case.

FIND OUT MORE Head to ato.gov.au and search for ‘rental properties 2013-14’, then click on the f rst link that appears. It will take you to a page where you can download a ‘rental properties’ PDF which offers heaps of information about rental income and expenses.

Buderim beauty with views

13 Honeyeater Close has a beach house feel but is right on top of the mountain, in an exclusive enclave of quality homes.

It is a modest character home that makes the most of that amazing view and offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms, so would be ideal for retirees.

However, with smart planning the home could be much more. Adding another level would open up that view even more.

There is lots of potential in this fantastic home.

ARIES [Mar 21-Apr 20] With so many planets powering through your partnership zone, the buzz words for this week are cooperation, consultation and companionship as you do your best to concentrate on the needs of loved ones. The solar eclipse indicates it’s time to initiate positive changes.

TAURUS [Apr 21-May 21] If you accept things at face value you may find later that you were way off the mark. Are you stuck in a relationship slump? Have your partnerships become boring? The solar eclipse and Venus urge you to re-connect with loved ones in creative new ways.

GEMINI [May 22-Jun 21] The week gets off to a positive start with the Mercury/Jupiter sextile. But remember that Mercury is still in retrograde mode so it won’t all be smooth sailing! Jupiter encourages you to contribute more of your time and talents to your local community.

CANCER [Jun 22-Jul 23] Casa Cancer is the place to be but with Mercury retrograding through your domestic zone there’s a backlog of chores to do around the house. The solar eclipse promises a period of nurturing old friendships and establishing new ones.

LEO [Jul 24-Aug 23] What you do and say will be closely scrutinised by others, which suits you just fine. You don’t mind if people are clapping or criticising – as long as you are being noticed!

Colleagues or loved ones are looking to you to come up with some creative concepts.

VIRGO [Aug 24-Sep 23] Mercury is retrograde, so it’s a good time to revise and revisit as you plough through paperwork, research projects and tie up loose-ends. Sunday is the day to release the brakes and take action. Be inspired by Pablo Picasso: “One must act in painting as in life, directly.”

LIBRA [Sep 24-Oct 23] Keep an open mind, as you absorb new financial information. Venus and the solar eclipse promise an increase in cash flow but you may cancel that out by indulging in a shopping spree.

It’s a wonderful time to converse, socialise and create.

SCORPIO [Oct 24-Nov 22] If you want to win someone over, start a project, apply for a job, pitch an idea or clinch a deal, then the weekend is the time to do it. And if you communicate clearly and creatively with others – plus dress to impress – then you’ll make spectacular progress.

SAGITTARIUS [Nov 23-Dec 21] Mighty Mars is charging through your sign for one more week so don’t hesitate to grab opportunities when they appear.

If you set ambitious goals, maintain motivation and are passionately proactive, then your life will start to move in dynamic new directions.

CAPRICORN [Dec 22-Jan 20] When it comes to ambitious goals for the future, are you kidding yourself? It’s time to re-imagine your aspirations. In order to sustain success, creative passions must be transformed into practical projects. And remember there’s a fine line between dreams and delusions.

AQUARIUS [Jan 21-Feb 19] The solar eclipse stimulates your career zone so strive to create work opportunities and maximise your professional potential. Getting in touch with your considerate side sees you being extra cooperative.

Approach others with charm and tact at home and at work.

PISCES [Feb 20-Mar 20] It’s a great week to research a project or do some serious revision. Don’t skim over the surface … the devil is definitely in the detail. Many restless Pisceans are keen to travel.

So start saving, planning, booking (and packing) as soon as possible!

SURF REPORT with MWPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s man in the water

Well Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just saying I warned you! I did tell you all to make sure you got your fill while the surf was good in August/September because once the flat spell started with bad winds it would last for two months and here we are. Watching people grovel on 1ft onshore waves at Happy Valley on the weekend was just sad. Leave it to the beginners I say.

There is a rumour some waves are on the way, but so is Christmas so donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get too excited. Might be time to start a new book or read the bible and start praying. Either way you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surfing. Now on a brighter note I have a bunch of friends heading to North Sumatra on Sunday and the forecast looks fantastic, 4 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 6ft the whole time. Eight hours surfing a day with a few cold Bintangs to embellish your stories. Sounds pretty darn good.

FISHING REPORT with Wayne Nilsson from Maroochydore Fishing World

ESTUARY: Bream and trevally are on the top of the tide at Twin Waters. Mangrove jack and flathead are showing up in numbers throughout the Coast rivers with live herring or plastics working well. Sand and mud crab numbers are increasing with rising night tides best.

SURF: Quality bream in gutters along North Shore using baby blue pillyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s with dart and whiting on beach worms and pippies. Tailor and trevally at Pincushion, early mornings best with whitebait and pillyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best baits.

OFFSHORE: Most inshore reefs are firing for sweetlip, parrot and cod with dawn and dusk best, using squid and fish fillet. The Barwon Banks have been returning rosy job fish, parrot and pearl perch on bottle squid and pillies.

FRESHWATER: Probably the best time of the year to fish dams with the likes of Somerset, Borumba, Lake Macdonald all firing with the warmer weather and producing quality bass using sinking lures right along the weed line. Golden perch also on offer with a mix of live shrimps, earthworms and deep diving lures all producing good catches.
