OUR STORY My Weekly Preview is a high quality magazine delivering more of what matters to the Sunshine Coast. It features news, business, regular columnists, interesting facts ts and figures for that hot topic at the dinner table, motoring, socials, travel, health, lifestyles and more, as well as the most up-to-date information on local real estate.

The magazine is 100% locally owned, which means we don’t just talk about being local, we are local, we live it every day. Delivered fresh every Friday.

We’re also conscious of the environment at MWP – all our home delivered magazines are wrapped in degradable plastic.

varian cancer kills more than 1000 Australian women each year, but there’s still no screening process for early detection. But that could all change if the organisers of Frocktober have their way.

They’re a calling on women to wear a dress every day for a month to raise much needed funds for research into this deadly disease. That’s our cover story this week.

Also in this issue, you get to have a quick chat with the new head of the Sunshine Coast Regional Development Australia, get a massage in Chiang Mai and test drive Peugeot’s new 308 GTI. You can see who has been out and about in our socials section, and we have also started a new section on the history of the Sunshine Coast to celebrate the region’s first 50 years.

There’s plenty of property, including a close-up look at one of the region’s leading real estate agents and all the latest in auctions action.

Enjoy.

QUICK CHAT

DEVELOPMENT DYNAMO Darryl Edwards liaises with all levels of government and the business community as the CEO of Regional Development Australia, Sunshine Coast.

WHERE ON THE SUNSHINE COAST DO YOU LIVE?

IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING ON THE COAST, WHAT WOULD IT BE?

Alexandra Headland. We moved to the Sunshine Coast 15 years ago and this was the first place we settled. We have owned several properties but they have always been within 500 metres of each other and a walk to the beach. Alex is so central and people are so friendly.

Better infrastructure: faster trains and better roads for safer and reliable travel within the region and across regions.

BEST DAY IN YOUR LIFE? The day I got married, corny but true. Nearly 30 years on and we still talk to each other, still best mates and in love.

FIRST JOB?

CAN YOU NOMINATE A DAY IN YOUR LIFE THAT TURNED OUT TO BE A TURNING POINT?

A warehouse storeman at a hardware store during school holidays and when I finished school. I filled builder’s orders and loaded trucks.

The day I decided I was going on long service leave and travelling overseas for eight months. The mental release from the daily grind and freedom for creative thought was revitalising. It was relaxing not having to worry about work but just enjoy travel, the scenery and experiences, food and cultures. I even lost a few kilos, all back now.

WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY WORKING ON? Working with Regional Development Australia on several projects related to faster broadband, youth employment, transport infrastructure, and coding and programming curriculum for school leavers. I enjoy trying to make a difference.

IMAGE: TRACY NAUGHTON

YOUR GREATEST REGRET?

YOUR FAMILY INCLUDES. . .

My wife and two amazing boys (now young men). They are all much better looking than me.

DO YOU HAVE A NICKNAME? I have 26 nicknames. I hope not that many personalities. My wife thought my name was Eddie for a long time. Eddie Edwards – how silly. Well the namesake actually made a name for himself at the Winter Olympics. It a shame I can’t ski.

FIRST CAR? I was a cheapskate and drove my wife’s car for a long time.

It was a VW station wagon. Great for beach trips and drive-in theatre.

FAVOURITE BOOK? The Da Vinci Code.

WHAT ARE YOU READING NOW? Social Media for Baby Boomers and Richard Branson’s Losing my Virginity.

FAVOURITE SONG? Tubthumping (“I get knocked down but I get up again, you never gonna keep me down”) by Chumbawamba.

8 My Weekly Preview | October 7, 2016

08.indd 1

BEST ADVICE YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN? Give up rugby league, you are not good enough to make a career of it.

WHY DO YOU LIVE HERE? We love the beach and relaxed lifestyle. Also love fishing and golfing, which there is plenty of on the coast.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PLACE ON THE SUNSHINE COAST? The beach walk from Alex to Maroochydore.

WHERE DO YOU TAKE VISITORS WHEN THEY COME TO THE COAST? Noosa and the hinterland.

Not buying a business in 2005 that would have made a fortune.

PROUDEST ACHIEVEMENT? Running with the bulls in Pamplona.

WHAT FRUSTRATES YOU THE MOST? I am very impatient when things don’t work the first time.

HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH YOUR FRUSTRATIONS? Not really sure that I deal all that well with frustration. Maybe have a beer.

IF YOU COULD TELL YOUR 18 YEAR-OLD SELF, ANYTHING WHAT WOULD IT BE? Aim high and don’t compromise your morals.

TEA OR COFFEE? I have coffee and very often. Skinny flat white, no sugar, I always get a look when I say skinny, not sure if they think you need it or they think it’s too late.

NRL OR AFL? NRL Broncos and Cowboys. Last year was a great result, one son follows each. My son got so excited when the Cowboys scored, he jumped up and tipped his beer over me.

THE PLANNING FOR A SUSTAINABLE COASTAL VILLAGE Sekisui House invites the community to visit us for information and have your say.

Sekisui House Australia is preparing a new proposal for the development of a 5 Star international eco-tourism resort, conference facilities, apartments, terraces and single dwelling homes around a coastal village centre and public open spaces on our 19 hectare beachfront site at Yaroomba.

This will be a new plan to create a sustainable coastal village based on principles developed in partnership with the community. We listened to community feedback about our previous proposal and will be making reductions in the hotel height and in the size of the residential community.

Sekisui House is Japan’s most respected

and successful community builders, with an international reputation for creating environmentally thoughtful and high quality developments that integrate with the natural environment. These same values, and our respect for the Sunshine Coast’s natural beauty and sustainability, will be paramount in our planning for Yaroomba Beach.

The new proposal being developed will offer a medium-density and medium-rise development. It will be a venue for locals and a drawcard for tourists, setting a new benchmark for the Sunshine Coast.

Sekisui House has signed an agreement with Starwood Hotels to operate The Westin

Coolum Resort & Spa at Yaroomba Beach, and Starwood will bring its international tourism experience to the process of planning for the first 5 Star hotel on the Sunshine Coast in nearly 30 years.

The Yaroomba Beach site is a disused former golf course and is recognised as one of only two key, undeveloped Tourism Focus Areas on the Sunshine Coast – specifically set aside as primary locations for tourism related activities, facilities and infrastructure.

Establishing a 5 Star eco-tourism resort will generate hundreds of local jobs and inject millions of tourism dollars into local businesses every year. Importantly the 5 Star eco-tourism

resort will be developed in the 1st stage.

The important parabolic and frontal dunes that adjoin the site are not owned by Sekisui House, not included in the project and will not be developed.

Sekisui House is targeting world class sustainability outcomes for the site, maintaining some of the mature vegetation and reducing the amount of imported fill under the new framework.

Sekisui House is highly awarded for sustainable development in Australia and overseas and these values will be applied to the Yaroomba Beach project.

Please visit our website, join our database for updates and share your feedback.

COVER STORY

FROCK UP AND FIGHT OVARIAN CANCER There is no screening test available for ovarian cancer and Frocktober aims to raise awareness and funding for more research. WORDS: Candice Holznagel

“I would encourage people to take part in Frocktober and support the ongoing research into the disease” Robyn Woodrow

O

ne woman dies every 10 hours from ovarian cancer in Australia.

It could be your mother, wife, sister, friend or your daughter.

It’s a fact that hasn’t escaped former Eudlo resident Robyn Woodrow.

The 51-year-old mother-of-two who low lives in Brisbane has been living with ovarian cancer for the past six years.

The stage one, grade three epithelial cancer was diagnosed in its early stages – a rarity in ovarian cancer diagnoses.

The disease can be difficult to identify as the symptoms, including abdominal pain, bloating, lower backaches, cramps or changes in bowel and bladder patterns, are found in many common female conditions.

Unlike breast and cervical cancers, currently there is no screening test available for ovarian cancer.

“I had absolutely no symptoms, which is why I was lucky that it was picked up so early,’’ Robyn tells My Weekly Preview.

“I was fortunate to be diagnosed with ovarian cancer at age 45 – fortunate that it

12 My Weekly Preview | October 7, 2016

12.indd 1

was detected very early through serendipitous circumstances. While doctors cleaned up a horrid appendix, they saw an ovarian cyst which I then had monitored, removed and biopsied. With a strong family history of female cancer, I had been preparing for this challenge for a while.

“I had been having regular breast scans and pelvic ultrasounds for many years.

“Despite being asymptomatic, when I received the call that the tumours were cancerous – I wasn’t surprised. I guess inside I already knew that.”

“It was all a bit of a frantic blur at that stage, as it was proposed that I have surgery three days later. As a mother with two young children, and a husband who worked away a lot, all I could think about was all of the administrative tasks I needed to get organised. I’m a very task-oriented person, and that is the way I approached this challenge – just a task to complete.”

Robyn underwent a pelvic clearance and six gruelling sessions of chemotherapy.

“I lost all of my hair, and had a

challenging six months – some days were okay, and others I barely got out of bed for days.”

Eighteen months on and Robyn’s cancer task was ‘complete’ however, that would not be the end of her battle.

“I was fortunate to be diagnosed with ovarian cancer at age 45 – fortunate that it was detected very early…”

After developing a persistent cough and an awkward feeling around her liver, Robyn sought medical advice and was diagnosed with stage three cancer – it had spread to the linings of numerous internal organs.

Although it was inoperable, it responded well to another six months of

intensive chemotherapy.

“From then, I stayed on a monthly maintenance program of intravenous chemo, until the tumours returned again in late 2015. I underwent yet another five sessions of killer chemo and responded well,” Robyn says.

“In June I decided to stop chemotherapy, and give my body a break, and I have started on a regime of oral PARP Inhibitors.”

The cancer has taken its toll on more than Robyn’s health.

It has drained her mentally and taken away her ability to work. In addition to fighting her own battle, Robyn lost her husband to cancer a little over a year ago.

“The thoughts about cancer are constant,’’ she says.

“There is not a day when it does not enter my thoughts. I live my life in monthly blocks – waiting for the next round of blood tests.

“Probably the most difficult is not being able to look a long way into the future, to not be able to visualise growing myweeklypreview.com.au

COVER STORY old with a partner, watching my children grow into adults.

“I know that the tumours will return, but I am making the most of time that, five years ago, I didn’t think I would have.

“I will get to see my daughter graduate from high school this year, and may even see university graduations and grandchildren.

“There are always new technologies being developed, so who knows what future treatment options may be available.”

Currently, the five-year survival rate for Australian women with ovarian cancer is 43 per cent. This compares to a 90 per cent five-year survival rate for breast cancer.

The key is research – a task that the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation (OCRF) is taking seriously.

The organisation’s goal is to increase awareness and raise money for the development of an early detection test that will assist in saving women’s lives.

This October, the OCRF is calling on the help of the wider community by asking women to stand together against the disease – and have a little fashionable fun during the process.

The fundraising event, Frocktober, will see hundreds of women across the country dress up for a good cause.

Established in 2007 by a group of Victorian university friends who decided to raise money for women’s health, Frocktober participants are asked to wear dresses for the month of October and fundraise for the charity.

To date, the initiative has raised more than $1.5 million for ovarian cancer research.

“To help us change the statistics and make a difference to future women’s health, we are encouraging corporate Australia and the community at large to join us during the month of October and get involved,’’ says an OCRF spokesperson.

“This is a fashionable way to raise funds for futures with less to fear.

“In order to reach our goal of $500,000 we need your help.

“You don’t need to be a scientist to make

DRESS FOR THE CAUSE

Robyn Woodrow with her children Molly and Thomas Evans a difference. Research is the only answer.”

Global research into the disease has resulted in few advancements.

In 2015, UK scientists reported a breakthrough, with research showing specific blood tests can detect 86 per cent of ovarian cancers.

The 14-year trial including more than 200,000 women suggests that tumours can be detected early through the relevant test.

The research involved looking at changes in the levels of the protein CA125 in a woman’s blood.

Then in July this year, a further study revealed that levels of the protein SOX2 are higher in the fallopian tubes of women who are genetically predisposed to the disease and in women with ovarian cancer.

It is hoped findings such as these two will lead to a screening test.

Robyn says, in the meantime, it is important women familiarise themselves with the symptoms of ovarian cancer.

She hopes Sunshine Coast residents will support Frocktober to raise funds and awareness to aid in early diagnosis.

“Unfortunately ovarian cancer doesn’t receive the same level of awareness as some other cancers, such as breast cancer, and the prognosis is so much worse.

“Many women are still ignorant about the symptoms and the diagnosis available.

You Y ou ccan now find

Often the symptoms are attributed to getting old, being stressed, even by GPs. “My key message would be – you know your body better than anyone, if something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t.

“Research is essential. Finding a diagnostic test, as for cervical or breast cancer, is critical to catching the disease early.”

“I would encourage people to take part in Frocktober and support the ongoing research into the disease. With approximately three deaths a day from the disease, early diagnosis is the key.”

As if frocking up for the 31 days in October isn’t fun enough, the team at the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation have come up with some quirky dress themes to see participants through the challenge: • Race day frocks • Boho/whimsical • The wrap dress • Shirt dress • Little black dress • ‘50s, ‘60s or ‘80s • Cocktail dress • Slip dress.

Get active on social media to promote the cause – #frocktober2016 and @Frocktober.

THE SYMPTOMS • Vague abdominal pain or pressure • Feeling of abdominal fullness, gas, nausea, indigestion – different to your normal sensations • Sudden abdominal swelling, weight gain or bloating • Persistent changes in bowel or bladder patterns • Low backache or cramps • Abnormal vaginal bleeding • Pain during intercourse • Unexplained weight loss.

THE CHALLENGE What are the Frocktober 2016 Challenges?

Challenge 1 – Wear a frock every day for the month of October and ask family and friends to sponsor your efforts.

Challenge 2 – Frock up to fundraise every Friday during October.

Challenge 3 – Host a one-off Frocktober event. Serve your favourite fondue, French Fries, fresh fruit or foie gras and make a difference.

NEW ADELAIDE FLIGHTS Jetstar’s new Adelaide to Sunshine Coast flights have begun. The new services will provide 56,000 seats between Adelaide and the Sunshine Coast each year and operate three times per week. Jetstar Group Chief Commercial Officer Catriona Larritt says demand for the new Adelaide-Sunshine Coast flights has been strong. “Our customers love visiting the Sunshine Coast, so we’re excited to now offer direct connections from three interstate capitals with the launch of our Adelaide flights today, in addition to our popular Sydney and Melbourne services.”

The Sunshine Coast community is the fourth most generous regional community in the state. In just four weeks, a total of $67,336 was raised for Wishlist through the 2016 Regional Wall Token campaign, made possible by Woolworths and the Children’s Hospital Foundation.

Every dollar of the money raised will stay on the Coast to help sick children in our hospitals.

Sunshine Coast development activity shows no signs of slowing down, according to the council’s annual building approvals heat map. Based on the number of building application approvals issued in the past four years, the map identifies where the highest levels of development activity and suburb growth are occurring. Building approvals are at the highest level they have been in seven years. View the map on the council’s website.

PROFILE

A LOVE FOR ART THAT’S MORE THAN SKIN DEEP Internationally renowned local tattoo artist Damien Wickham is the man behind the Sunshine Coast’s annual tattoo convention. By Leigh Robshaw

IMAGES: CARLY HEAD

S

un, surf, sand. . . and tattoos. It may not be the usual tagline you see promoting the Sunny Coast to the world, but we do bare a lot of skin in the warmer months and much of that skin is a canvas for some pretty cool ink. Which is why local tattoo artist Damien Wickham from Ink Attack in Bokarina thought the Sunshine Coast would be the perfect place to stage a tattoo convention.

He ran the first Ink Attack Tattoo Convention in October last year and packed out the Events Centre in Caloundra over the weekend. This year, it’s being staged at The Shed at Aussie World and it will be another huge event, with 80 international artists coming from the UK, New Zealand, America, Canada, Melbourne and Sydney to take part.

Originally from Warwick, he moved to the Coast in 1996 and is married with a young daughter and another baby due in January.

His wife Orela is the main organiser of the convention and though she doesn’t have a single tattoo, she appreciates the artistic talent that goes into an amazing piece of ink.

Wickham travels the world attending tattoo competitions and conventions and has won 52 first place trophies, including being the first Australian to win at the American Body Art Tattoo Expo in Los Angeles in July, beating 320 international tattoo artists.

“Because I do so many conventions around the world, I know many artists around the world and people say, the Sunshine Coast – where’s that? I’d love to go there some day, that sounds great.”

A passion for ink and art runs in Wickham’s blood. His father was a tattoo artist who retired in 2007 and passed on his tattooing equipment to his son, who was running a temporary fencing business and jumped at the opportunity.

“I’ve been an artist for as long as I can remember,” he says. “My aunt says I was drawing the number two when I was twoyears-old with lipstick on my family members.

I won my first oil on canvas competition when

I was 12. My earliest recollections are of my dad teaching me how to draw. He wanted me to accomplish all forms of art before I would touch a tattoo machine. So I set out to accomplish all arts. I went to the Brisbane School of Commercial Art and got an advanced diploma, I did a signwriting apprenticeship, I did illustrating courses, I’ve done oil classes, acrylic classes, portrait classes. Just whatever I could.”

Wickham did the rounds of Brisbane’s tattoo shops with his dad’s equipment asking for work and in 2008 got his first job at a studio in Wolloongabba.

“The first tattoo I did was on my cousin Stevie and it was a word, Eternis. I pretty much picked it up straight away. All tattooing is figuring out your medium.”

In a short space of time, Wickham has become known as one of Australia’s best tattoo artists and one of the few who have

perfected the art of photorealism.

“I don’t do any outlines in my work, they’re rendered paintings and photographs that I put on people’s skin. Photographs don’t’ have lines in them. It’s all about the finished product, instead of working from dark to light, bottom to top, I might work mid tones, then work between the lights and darks. I look at composition, I look at the positive and negative relationships in the artwork before I put them on the skin. Then I develop and layer the picture.”

Wickham says while older people still associate tattoos with violence and gangs, attitudes towards ink in mainstream society have improved as the techniques and quality of the work has.

“Three types of people get tattooed,” he says. “The first get tattooed for other people – it’s peer pressure. Then there are some who get tattoos for intimidation, then there are the

people I deal with, the art lovers. We’re about 15 years behind America. In America no one gets clocks anymore – here everyone wants clocks and lettering and the Southern Cross.

You’ve got to strive to be different, to have artwork that is going to look beautiful now and look beautiful in 50 years’ time.”

Wickham stresses tattooing is not to be rushed and won’t tattoo anyone who visits the shop insisting on getting tattooed the same day.

“We help them, we educate them, we don’t just tattoo them and kick them out the door. A lot of people take it the wrong way but it’s a process. The process is preparation and execution, not just execution.

“What I love most about the job is making people happy. The bonds you develop with each and every person and the satisfaction of creating something that no one else can do, creating life-like images embedded into the skin. It’s totally different to any other form of art. The ability to work for eight hours straight and not make a mistake, really gives you self satisfaction.”

The Ink Attack Tattoo Convention is on Friday October 21 to Sunday October 23 at The Shed at Aussie World.

Looking For A New Mattress?

Don’t Get Ripped Off Discover What’s Actually Inside the Mattress You’re Thinking About Buying… And How to Get a Luxury $6,000 Mattress For Less Than $2,000 Or a Premium $1,200 Mattress For Less Than $400 Many people feel overwhelmed when they walk into a mattress store. There are so many choices. The truth is, it’s designed to be that way. And it gets even worse when the ‘Mattress Consultant’ further bamboozles you with terms like micro-pocket-coils and alternating coil technology.

In this article, I’m going to expose the sneaky tricks that mattress manufacturers and retail stores use to get you to pay thousands too much. I’m going to show you the most important things to look for in a new mattress (including the one question you must ask).

And how to get a $6,000 mattress for less than $2,000 or a $1,200 mattress for less than $400. But first…

I Have A Confession To Make My brother and I own 4 mattress stores in Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, and a mattress factory at Sumner Park. So naturally, we’d love you to buy your mattress from us. But more than that, we want to make sure you get a mattress you’ll love – a genuinely high-quality mattress that will last for years – without getting ripped off.

You see, we meet people every day who are totally confused about mattresses. And people who feel disappointed (even angry) because they paid thousands for their last mattress and it has not lasted. So we’re on a mission to expose the industry scams. And it starts by telling you…

What’s Actually Inside the Mattress You’re Thinking About Buying The core of most mattresses is made from one of two types of springs. The fi rst type uses lengths of wire formed into hourglass shapes, connected by rows of spiral (helical) wire and held together by a wire hoop at the top and bottom. These are often called Bonnell Springs. But no matter what name mattress stores use, this traditional style of wire spring is essentially the same. In fact, most are made by one company and shipped in compressed form to mattress companies all around the world.

The second type of spring is called a Pocket Spring. This is where each spring is wrapped in a thin layer of fabric and moves independently to minimize partner disturbance.

Pocket Spring mattresses often come with heavier springs in the middle of the bed to give extra support for your hips (3 zone).

Don’t be fooled by sales people who tell you 5 or 7 zones are better.

This is just a gimmick to get you to pay more for a mattress.

Likewise, don’t be fooled by people who tell you more springs are better. The more springs a mattress has, the smaller and thinner those springs have to be (and potentially weaker). But I suppose when someone is trying to sell you a $6,000 mattress, 4,000 springs sounds better than 1,000, even if it’s not true.

Pocket Spring mattresses tend to cost a little more than Bonnell Spring mattresses but offer a genuine advantage in terms of less partner disturbance.

Edge supports should add around $100 to the price of a Bonnell Spring mattress and around $200 to the price of a Pocket Spring mattress depending if the support goes all the way around or if it is just added to the sides.

What’s On Top Of The Springs?

Most mattresses have a layer of felt directly on top of the springs.

But many manufacturers skimp by using very thin felt or only putting felt on one side of the springs. We use heavy grade felt that provides a solid base for comfort layers.

On top of the felt you’ll fi nd a variety of comfort layers — usually a combination of foam or latex and sometimes other natural materials like wool. This is by far the most expensive part of a mattress and the reason luxury mattresses cost more. But don’t be fooled. No matter what type of foam or latex (or what fancy name a manufacturer gives their comfort layers), it should never add thousands to the price of a mattress.

What About Pillow Top? The term pillow top refers to the extra comfort layers usually only on one side of the mattress. This provides an extra soft sleeping surface for those who like a plush feel. Once again, the most important thing is what is inside the pillow top – namely, the density of foam. A low density foam may feel luxurious at fi rst, but as it breaks down you may feel like you are sleeping in a hollow.

What About Non-Flip Mattresses?

In some ways, this is another industry gimmick. The fact that most people don’t like to fl ip their mattress each month has lead manufacturers to say things like ‘non-fl ip technology’. What this really means is that the mattress only has comfort layers on one side. So in a way, this has enabled manufacturers to save money on manufacturing while charging more. A mattress that can be fl ipped will generally last twice as long as a single side mattress (provided you do actually fl ip it).

The Truth About Different Foams

What About The Plush Top?

Listen carefully because this is one of the most important things you need to know when choosing a mattress. The type of foam used in a mattress will not only affect its feel, it will signifi cantly affect the longevity of the mattress.

Foams are measured in two ways. Firstly there is the feel – hard or soft. Then there is the density – high or low. The feel is what makes one mattress appear plush and another fi rm. The density is what makes one foam last longer than another. You can get a soft mattress in low or high density. Density does not affect the feel.

But it will make a big difference to how long your mattress will last.

Density is what costs the money. So before you buy a mattress, be sure to ask about the density of the foams inside.

The fi rst layer (on top of the felt) is usually the low-est density (2025kg/m2 is usually fi ne for this layer). But many manufacturers continue to use low density (20kg/m2 or lower) for the top comfort layers. While you won’t notice this when you fi rst feel your new mattress, it will become obvious as the foam breaks down and you end up sleeping in a hollow (sometimes as quickly as just a few months).

Some people like the look and feel of the ‘cloud-like’ comfort layers incorporated into the quilting of some mattresses. The problem is, this layer usually fl attens quickly. Some salespeople say, “Your mattress will settle and mould to your body shape over time.” The truth is, the fl uffy quilting is simply get-ting fl at. We advise against plush quilting because if you like the plush feel, you will soon be disappointed as the quilting fl attens. If you do like a particularly soft surface layer, we recommend inserting a thin layer of high density memory foam in the quilting.

What About Memory and Gel Foams?

What About Edge Support

Memory foam is a term used to describe foams that have a slow ‘bounce’. In other words, once depressed, they take a few seconds to regain their original shape. Gel foam is a term used to describe foam that is infused with a special gel substance. Both memory and gel foams feel similar to touch. But because some people complain memory foams are hot to sleep on (due to the fact you tend to sink into the foam more), the addition of gel particles encourages air fl ow and a cooler sleeping surface. Although used as a marketing gimmick by many manufacturers, we do see some benefi t in using gel infused memory foam if you tend to feel hot when you sleep.

In order to maintain support right to the edges, an extra piece of wire can be connected to the top and bottom hoops of a Bonnell Spring mattresses and a strong foam box can be added to a Pocket Spring Mattress.

Edge supports add genuine benefi t because they allow you to sleep or sit right on the edge of the bed without the side collapsing.

Unlike memory foam that has a slow ‘bounce’ latex returns to its original shape very quickly. This doesn’t mean latex feels hard to sleep on. Quite the contrary, latex has quite a plush feel. But unlike memory foam which causes you to sink into the bed, latex supports you on the surface.

What About Latex?

What About Mattresses That Cost $3,000, $5,000 and Even $10,000?

As you now know, the internal components of most mattresses are pretty much the same. And the most important part is the comfort layers (i.e. the density / quality of the foam). But no matter what fancy names are given to a mattress or it’s components – including terms relating to the type or number or springs – if you’re paying $6,000 for a mattress, we think you are being ripped off.

Summary And Special Offer Want to get a $6,000 mattress for $2,000? Our Luxury Heaven mattress is equivalent or better than most big brand $6,000 mattresses and includes a Dual Spring system with pocket coils, full foam box support on all sides, extra-thick felt padding, 5cm of natural latex and premium quality quilting.

If you prefer a cheaper mattress, our sensor comfort mattress is equivalent or better than most big-brand $1,200 mattresses and includes Bonnell Springs, firm side supports on all sides, extra thick felt padding and a generous amount of high-density foam.

understanding why you feel so negative, angry or depressed. Often during this time, we are not aware of how it is affecting us, or the people around us. Understanding that how you interpret information during this period may be from a negative perspective and things may not be as bad as they seem.

Dealing with the pain is the number one priority, though in some cases, pain is unavoidable, and may take years to overcome if at all. Knowing this relationship between pain and mood however, may just make the difference between the choices you make with the people around you influencing your relationships. Awareness is the key to moving forward and breaking the cycle.

uffering with chronic pain such as arthritis, back pain, or acute inflammation such as injury or illness, releases a neuropeptide in the brain known as Substance P, that is released from the terminals of the sensory nerves. It’s also found in the brain and the spinal cord, so it’s little wonder that during times of pain or illness, your mood plummets, while your stress levels go through the roof.

Not only is Substance P able to reduce your levels of serotonin, causing feelings of depression, anger or sadness, but low serotonin has the ability to increase your levels of Substance P, directly increasing levels of pain and inflammation in line with a low mood, becoming a vicious cycle.

Being aware of these processes occurring during times of illness or pain may help manage your mood by

New research by scientists at the University of Sydney suggests a diet low in protein is the most effective in prolonging life and could even help in the battle against obesity and type 2 diabetes. This diet stimulates the production of the hormone Fibroblast Growth Factor 21, the ‘fountain of youth’ hormone produced in the liver.

Previous research has shown that FGF21 is greatly influenced by diet and high levels of this hormone have actually been shown to play a huge role in curbing appetite, moderating metabolism, and improving the immune system and insulin production.

The findings go against the common assumption that restricting carbohydrates is best for overall health. “Despite the popularity of high protein Paleo diets, our research suggests the exact opposite may be best for us as we age – that a low protein, high carbohydrate diet was the most beneficial for late life health and longevity,� says lead author Dr Samantha Solon-Biet. – AAP

French American actor and model Lily-Rose Depp is almost always photographed wearing just one shade of lipstick. She shies away from look-at-me reds or fickle trends like blue and black and sticks with one classy, neutral shade, that complements her brown eyes and pale complexion. We did some hunting and gathering and discovered the shade is Velvet Teddy by M.A.C, a peachy nude matte colour. She also loves M.A.C. Whirl Lip Pencil and uses a pinky-peach shade of blush, which doubles as her eyeshadow. The end result is a very natural, pretty makeup look that highlights her gorgeous features without looking overdone. Good Velvet Teddy duplicates are Rimmel London Kate X 03 and Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in Caramel Glacé.

OH MAI

ON BLINDS, SHUTTERS & AWNINGS

Massages, monuments and mountains in Thailand’s Chiang Mai.

“O

oh, ahh, hot” I yelp, as an elderly Thai man dips his foot into a bucket of warm charcoal before pressing sesame oil onto my back.

The sizzling sound makes me wince, but the soothing effect on my muscles reveals my initial fear of being cooked like a piece of fried chicken was unfounded.

I presume the man’s foot has developed a Kevlar-like quality, as he grins at me while returning it to the heat, before going to work on my legs.

A yam khang massage - using a technique dating back hundreds of years - is one of many unexpected treats on my trip to northern Thailand.

The country’s authorities have ambitious plans to boost annual revenue from overseas tourists by eight per cent, and they hope to achieve this by encouraging people to explore lesser-known areas.

Chiang Mai, the former seat of the Lanna kingdom, is renowned for its temples and has been on the southeast Asia backpackers’ trail for decades.

Holidaymakers coming to Thailand for a week or two have often preferred to head south to islands such as Phuket and Ko Phi-Phi Don. But in recent years, Chiang Mai has developed a growing reputation as a city break destination, and I find it the perfect base for exploring this relaxed and fascinating region, which is largely rural and has swathes of rich forestry.

It seems like every street corner, shop or restaurant has a portrait of the king and queen.

Soon after wiping the excess oil off my back I am introduced to a woman who has the unenviable task of showing me how she uses paper to make decorative flags sold for use in people’s homes during a celebration.

My ragged attempt is destined for the recycling bin rather than the village shop, but my instructor upholds her nation’s Land of Smiles reputation by beaming at me.

One place where my shabby attempts at getting hands-on would not go down well is Chiang Mai’s Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden.

It’s Thailand’s first international-standard botanical garden and features a number of

Dhara Dhevi Resort rare plants. And for those of us not particularly green-fingered, the main attraction is the canopy walkway.

Meandering through treetops along the 504-metre long route ensures a panoramic view of the mist-shrouded Doi Suthep-Pui mountains.

It feels like I have the entire walkway to myself and with nothing but the sound of birds, the environment could not be more different to the chaos of Bangkok.

The Dhara Dhevi resort is another location where it feels like I am the only person around, thanks to its 60-acre (24-hectare) size.

There is a prayer hall modelled on a Buddhist temple, amphitheatre, market, paddy fields and buffalo. It looks incredibly old, and I’m stunned to learn it’s been open for just over 10 years.

My last few days in Chiang Mai are spent experiencing some of the city’s exciting activities.

Leaping off a 50-metre high platform, my pulse races as I hurtle between jungle tree tops at the Flight of the Gibbon zipline tour.

Next up on my adrenalin- pumped itinerary is racing a wooden cart down a steep, bumpy track at Mon Cham.

The controls are simple - steer with your feet and keep hold of the brake - and I am soon in first place. But just as I begin thinking of victory, I hit a rock and veer to the right, crashing into a ditch.

After eventually reaching the finish line, I climb out of my vehicle to discover we’re on a hill ridge overlooking a spectacular landscape of green mountains.

My heart rate settles down and I sit on a bench to soak up the panoramic view, accompanied by a butterfly.

MY OPINION

MEMORIES OF A SHOPAHOLIC

FEAR OF FREE SPEECH

Sami Muirhead reflects on the many milestones she's experienced at Sunshine Plaza as she waits for the exciting new upgrade.

Australia is so big on political correctness we're losing our intellectual resilience and shunning critical thinking, writes Richard Bruinsma.

S

hopaholics unite. Last week the sod was turned for the $400 million dollar expansion to The Sunshine Plaza. It is a big figure and it will mean big changes to the landscape of the Sunshine Coast. And it is long overdue. I cannot wait to have a revamped Myer, a brand new David Jones, 100 new speciality shops and a Big W all a few minutes walk from my work. I love our little boutique shops and cafes scattered over the region and I try to support the small operators as often as I can, but the area has been crying out for years for a satellite city of eating, drinking, relaxing and shopping.

I was a little nostalgic thinking back on the history of the Plaza since it opened in 1994. It has played somewhat of a big sister role in my life. I have probably taken her for granted but she has been there for pretty much every milestone of my adult life.

Way back over 20 years ago, I spent my first journalism pay packet on a hot pink linen blazer with shoulder pads and green eye shadow. It was the '90s, girls. I had made the boss at Channel 7 coffee for over six months as I slaved away trying to impress him enough to convince him to finally give me a full-time job. I remember how I celebrated. My best friend and I went straight to the Plaza on Thursday night and blew my pittance within half an hour. We thought we were a bit of big business when looking back we were really kids pretending to be adults. But it was certainly the start of a

lifelong love affair with shopping.

In my 20s I spent many pay packets on clothing from the Plaza. Then I bought a unit and my salary went towards plates and cutlery and a couch.

My first date with my now husband was at the movies watching Forgetting Sarah Marshall. I bought my wedding shoes from Sportsgirl and my husband’s wedding band from Prouds.

Next came babies and a large part of my pay packet bought everything you needed for a newborn from Target.

"I spent my first journalism pay packet on a hot pink linen blazer" Over the past 25 years I have had a lot of mud cake with friends while we have consoled each other over our broken hearts.

I still love to sit in a quiet corner of the Myer cafe and eat scones with jam and cream. It makes me feel like I am home. And every Christmas my sister and I have a coffee and watch a movie together. We all love our favourite big sister, the Plaza.

It will be two years before the new facelift is finished by Christmas 2018. It will go quickly so start saving, we are going to need credit cards with healthy balances to go and christen those delicious new shops.

C

an 'tolerant Australia' save our freedom of speech? A disturbing development in Australia is the recent shift in attitudes toward the concept of freedom of speech.

The common understanding is it affords residents of a level-headed society to publicly express what they believe, without fear of intimidation or persecution.

The sharing of varied views is healthy and educational, and should lead to the fine-tuning and improvement of society.

However, the intolerance in Australia for airing differing opinions has gained strength in recent years, mainly through the debates over Muslims, immigration and same-sex marriage.

Those who hold more conservative views seem more likely to be shouted down and labelled racists and bigots.

The growing eagerness to criticise emerged in a survey I ran on federal polling day in which a question asked: “Should Muslim people be banned from migrating to Australia?” whereby one respondent commented, “This is a racist question”.

If questions on controversial topics can’t be asked, how can we improve? Nowadays it seems those who disagree with an accepted norm are a fair target for criticism and public shaming, and may well have their opinions

muted: the Greens walked out of the Senate during Pauline Hanson’s maiden speech, calls on social media to remove Donald Trump from Facebook if the idea received enough support, and the gay lobby, allegedly threatening violence, triggering the cancellation of a Christian event at a major hotel due to staff safety fears.

Free speech now comes with a proviso that if you speak your mind, you may be aggressively opposed in an attempt to shut you down.

One of my friends noted: many people today are so afraid of saying the wrong thing, they say nothing at all.

The 'right things' seems to be determined by the one who shouts loudest. And opponents have the right to a fair say. The definition of freedom of speech actually has a second part: that the speech is also subject to the laws against defamation, incitement of violence or rebellion.

Australians traditionally have been accepting of others, regardless of background and beliefs, provided they were respectful – but ignoring that valued trait has helped degrade our freedom of speech.

It’s time to decide whether we want a society that prides itself on a high level of tolerance and a sharing of ideas, or one in which true debate is stifled and the voice of many people is silenced.

"Many people today are so afraid of saying the wrong thing…"

OUR 50TH YEAR

THIS MONTH IN HISTORY

Above: Premier Frank Nicklin Left: Mooloolaba Beach in the 1960s

WELCOME TO THE SUNSHINE COAST

In the first of our series on the Sunshine Coast’s 50th anniversary, we look at how our name was chosen.

T

he wrangling had been going on for almost a decade – the Near North Coast needed a name to better define it, but what would it be?

The Maroochy Shire Chairman Eddie De Vere was in the ‘Sunshine Coast’ camp and had been at loggerheads with the state member for Cooroora and former shire chairman David Low, over renaming the Near North Coast Show Society.

De Vere was plumping for Sunshine Coast Show Society but Low resisted, threatening to call a public meeting and filling the hall with people “who will show you what they think of the name Sunshine Coast”.

Not to be beaten, De Vere mentioned his idea to the Premier, Frank Nicklin, who had bought a small pineapple farm at Palmwoods after returning from World War I, and knew the area well.

“I think you are on a winner,” Nicklin told him.

They agreed to meet at an upcoming Maroochydore Surf Carnival so as not to raise any suspicion.

While competitors were tackling the surf, Nicklin and De Vere wandered up the beach and found a quiet place in the dunes to have what was to be a historic discussion.

Nicklin said he would support any move for the name Sunshine Coast and promised his backing in the media. He would make the statement and De Vere would follow up with a resolution in council.

There, in the Maroochydore sand dunes, they also decided that the boundaries for this new Sunshine Coast would extend from Caloundra in the south to Noosa in the north and west to Kenilworth, De Vere’s home town.

It didn’t quite go to plan for De Vere who failed to win the support of his council, but he persevered and in November 1966, the region’s major newspaper, The Nambour Chronicle reported, “Sunshine Coast is official”. All three shires had agreed to adopt the name for the region.

It was to be another year before it was officially gazetted on August 1, 1967 – and another two years after that before it became the Sunshine Coast Show.

Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser meets the Maroochy Shire parking meter man Percy Rattray, with shire chairman Ed De Vere and federal member Evan Adermann in 1978.

Prime Minister Malcolm Fraser officially opened the Maroochy Shire Council offices in Bury Street, Nambour, fondly known as the Taj Mahal, on October 12, 1978. He initially refused to make the trip, his office advising the PM couldn’t possibly attend every official opening in Australia.The building is now the Sunshine Coast Regional Council headquarters.

DID YOU KNOW? • In 1971, the 10-storey Maroochy Sands building, at the corner of Sixth Avenue and Aerodrome Road, became the Sunshine Coast’s first high-rise.

• The Blackall Range was named by surveyor C.S. Bradbury in 1874. He was surveying the timber reserve and named the range after Sir Samuel Blackall who was Queensland Governor from 1864-1871.

• It is claimed that 25 years after the capture of the Ned Kelly gang, Dan Kelly lived for about two years in a small house on the cricket field in Tewantin.

• With homesites from $7,500 to $10,500, a brochure in the mid-1960s extolled the virtues of the new estate Aroona, “your chance to invest in the still unspoilt but fast developing Sunshine Coast”.

MOTORING PREVIEW

HOT STUFF After an absence of almost 15 years, Peugeot’s fabled GTI badge has returned to Australia with a vengeance.

H

ow hot is hot enough?

No, we’re not talking weather here. Or curries. We’re talking hatchbacks.

Hot hatches – the fast-and-fun machines that have elbowed their way into a growing number of Aussie garages over the past decade.

With their mix of driving pleasure and family-friendly practicality, they’re highly sought-after and the competition these days has reached an entirely new level. And, like a good curry, they’re available in varying

levels of hotness.

And now, entering this scorching selection of hot hatches comes French maker Peugeot with its new 308 GTI. And, just like a good curry menu, it allows the buyer to decide how hot you want it.

This new GTI - the first 308 to wear this coveted badge Down Under for almost 15 years - arrives in not one but two temperature levels. The very hot GTI250 and the slightly-more scalding GTI270.

Each takes its name from its power output - the 250 delivers 250 horsepower

(184 kilowatts) – while the 270, with a handful of extra go-fast bits, has been fashioned with the hard-core enthusiast in mind and a neat 200kW beneath the bonnet.

We tested the former – which Peugeot says is aimed more at “daily drivers” - and enjoyed its combination of hard-edged performance and all-around driveability.

That’s a blend not easily achieved but the GTI250 deftly mixes classy refinement with a distinctly wicked side.

The GTI cranks up the fun factor – and the exhaust volume - by a couple of notches – with the French engineers coaxing a dazzling 184 kilowatts, plus 330 Newton metres of torque, from a relatively small 1.6-litre four-cylinder.

That translates into an impressive 0-100km/h sprint of 6.1 seconds, although it feels even quicker when in full cry. A slick six-speed manual allows the driver to access every part of that power band. It will comfortably pull 100km/h in second gear on its way to a top speed of 250km/h.

Styling wise, the Peugeot designers have taken a fairly conservative approach to this car’s outward appearance. It has a squat, athletic stance, while its big alloys and chrome dual exhaust pipes are a bit of a giveaway.

Like its less sporty siblings, the GTI uses Peugeot’s new iCockpit layout – combining a small, chunky steering wheel and with all

instruments set higher on the dash. Its handling, too, is go-kart-like, with accurate turn-in and admirably stable handling.

And its $44,990 price includes keyless start, rear parking sensors and reversing camera, dual-zone climate-control air, 97-inch multifunction touch-screen with satellite navigation, excellent sports seats and tyre pressure monitoring system.

Sharp and sporty, yet impressively refined and comfortable.

So you can have your curry and eat it, too.

PEUGEOT 308 GTI HOW BIG? A compact hatch, but it will comfortably fit four adults or a family of five, with useful cargo space beneath the hatch.

HOW FAST? Seriously. You’ll need to spend almost twice as much to get a hot hatch with more performance.

It feels urgent and edgy.

HOW THIRSTY? It’s modest-sized 1.6-litre engine delivers decent fuel-efficiency with a combined thirst of 6L/100km. On the open road it will get below 5.

HOW MUCH? Not cheap for a compact machine, but at $44,990 it’s generously equipped, beautifully built and great bang for your buck.

The new way to sell

My Weekly Preview | October 7, 2016 37

4/10/2016 11:38:10 AM

PROPERTY

AGENT PROFILE My Property Preview had a chat with Karen Jones from Next Property Group about life in, and outside of, the real estate market… trusted me implicitly. She made me realise how much trust people place on you and how much responsibility that’s involved in the selling process.

What was your most recent sale?

The property was 6 Cayman Place, Kawana Island. There was a four week auction campaign with My Weekly Preview marketing and it sold prior to auction for $1.7 million.

What do you love most about your job?

The people you get to meet.

What is the most difficult thing about your job?

The hours – to be successful you have to be available 24/7.

What’s best - auction or private treaty?

It depends on the property, the market condition and situation of the owners.

How have you seen the property market change in the past 12 months?

The demand is increasing everyday especially from nonlocal buyers. We are seeing lots of demand for prime position properties especially beachside areas near the new hospital.

(Surburbs) like Wurtulla, Kawana Island and all waterfront properties.

How do you see it changing in the next 12 months?

I would like to think that the positive trend is going to continue with the growth of all the developments which are happening on the Coast.

TIP FOR BUYERS: What was your very first job?

Picking fruit in Bundaberg What is your favourite place on the Sunshine Coast?

Wurtulla beach.

Describe your perfect day?

A sleep-in; read the paper with a coffee, beach walk with the kids, bike ride or swim, glass of wine and a nice meal at one of the Coast’s great eating spots and a good night’s sleep.

What is the best holiday you have ever had?

W

UNDER THE HAMMER WITH DAVID HOLMES 38 My Weekly Preview | October 7, 2016

38.indd 1

Any holiday in the snow with my kids. I have been skiiing in Canada, New Zealand, Mt Hotham, and Japan is next.

How long have you worked in the real estate business and what attracted you to it in the first instance?

Too long – every day is different. There is a lot of variety in the day.

What was the first property you sold?

A house in Currimundi. I remember the owner, who was a sweet old lady, was going into a retirement village and she

ith winter gone now is time for auction season. This year spring is shaping up to be a strong period for auction success throughout south east Queensland.

Winter performed well when it comes to auction numbers, clearance rates and sale prices.

There were 2113 auctions held across Australia’s capital cities for the final week of winter which was an increase on 1795 the week prior.

The auction clearance rate was also impressive with the preliminary rate recorded at 76.6 per cent which is above last year’s rate of just 73.4 per cent for this particular week.

Interestingly it appears that the higher end of the market is on the move once again. The number of homes selling with a price tag of at least $1 million has boomed

Be decisive - just do it. You can always change the house but you can’t change where it is. Buy the best position you can afford.

TIP FOR SELLERS: Listen to your agent. Do everything you can to have your home well maintained and beautifully presented. Commit to all the activities to attract buyers, the internet reaches many but the print media taps into a completely different pool of buyers.

over recent years and is steadily increasing.

As of June this year, 14 per cent of all house sales Australia wide and 7.3 per cent of unit sales were at a price of at least $1 million. Putting this into perspective, just five years ago, only 7.5 per cent and 4 per cent of units reached the million dollar price tag.

It is certainly a recipe for auction success, record prices and quick sales with positive outcomes for sellers.

Now is the time to take action if you are seeking the best results in terms of both pricing and time on market. Spring has certainly sprung. *source for figures Corelogic Auctioneer David Holmes is the owner of Metro Auctions

Every room has a unique style on a grand scale. The main living area, accessed by multiple arched timber doorways, has 12 foot ceilings and large floor space. This home lends its self to multiple uses and styles of accommodation.

Although this structure has been a great family home since construction, it’s easy to see the potential this home presents as is, or transforming into something more. Due to the size, style and location of this property it could easily become a hinterland retreat. All of this is on offer on a flat, usable 2.3 acres of land.

SURF REPORT

with MWP’s man in the water

Groundhog day for a while peeps so don’t get excited. Maybe grab some snorkel gear and swim around some rocky headlands. I did this on the weekend and discovered a beautiful moray eel and some large turtles with a lot of small fish. They next round of WSL has started with some solid waves.

The leaderboard for world title is starting to get crowded. It’s hard to imagine Mr Slater getting any closer but he certainly should not be written off.

FISHING REPORT with Wayne Nilsson from Maroochydore Fishing World

ESTUARY: Flathead are working across Maroochy Bar on the bigger tides this week with quality fish taken on live whiting and gold or pink lures. Whiting are feeding on the yabby banks at Goat Island on the night rising tides. Sand crabs can be found in the deeper water around the motorway bridge with mullet frames the best baits. You can get a few trevally on the top of the tide.

SURF: There are quality dart and whiting along Maroochy North Shore with worms and pippies the best bait. There are still a few chopper tailor and bream taking baby blues and pilly pieces at Pincushion about an hour after dark. A few sharks are taking baits aimed at jew.

OFFSHORE: The Blinker being a perfect fish attracting device has been returning amberjacks and kingies on jigged lures and live bait. Snapper and pearl perch are taking pilchards and squid in the deeper water just beyond the north eastern end of the Barwon Banks, when conditions allow.

FRESHWATER: Lake Borumba is returning bass, spangled perch and jew on shrimps and lures. Lake Borumba looks picture perfect. Saratoga and bass are in the pools below the dam wall. Lake Boondooma has had plenty of fishing pressure from recent comps and is still returning bass and golden perch on fly, lures and live shrimps. Baroon Pocket dam near Maleny is a beautiful spot with bass the catch of the week.

TAURUS (Apr 21-May 21)

GEMINI (May 22-Jun 21)

Passionate partnerships and joint ventures are favoured. But words can cut like a knife, especially on Thursday and Friday when it will be very easy to say the wrong thing to the wrong person. Think it through and choose your words wisely.

With Venus visiting your partnership zone, it will be easier to sort out relationship problems. Especially if you articulate your feelings and are prepared to compromise. Attached bulls – your partner is looking for some sensible and balanced advice.

The focus is on friendships. How to nurture them … and let them go when you have outgrown each other.

You’ll find mutual interests are essential to platonic relationships.

When it comes to communication, you’ve certainly got the gift of the gab.

CANCER (Jun 22-Jul 23)

LEO (Jul 24-Aug 23)

VIRGO (Aug 24-Sep 23)

Jupiter helps improve relationships at Casa Cancer. So the focus is on home and family, as you fix up a problem or talk things through with a loved one. But you will be anything but congenial on the weekend when the full moon fires up your crabby side.

Are you making the most of your mind? With Mercury and Jupiter joining up in your communication zone, expand your thinking to encompass innovative ideas. But Uranus and the full moon could cause chaos on the weekend.

Monday through until Wednesday is a terrific time to travel, teach, talk business, publish an educational post or learn something new. But the big lesson to learn is how to diversify and delegate. No one (not even a super effective Virgo) is indispensable.

LIBRA (Sep 24-Oct 23)

SCORPIO (Oct 24-Nov 22)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 23-Dec 21)

This week the planets stir up problems with a partnership, so expect the unexpected! With the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter all visiting your sign, comfort eating is a danger and it will be difficult to stick to your chosen diet or exercise plan.

Expect flashes of creative and spiritual inspiration on Tuesday, as your imagination and intuition kick in.

The weekend looks intense when the full moon and Mercury/Pluto square stir up inner compulsions, submerged secrets or hidden resentments.

Prepare to inspire others with your high spirits and contagious enthusiasm! You’re at your bouncy and buoyant best on Tuesday, as Mercury and Jupiter boost confidence levels and put extra wind in your Sagittarian sails.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22-Jan 20)

AQUARIUS (Jan 21-Feb 19)

PISCES (Feb 20-Mar 20)

When it comes to business matters or your life direction, it’s time to banish old beliefs. Look to the future with confidence and fresh ideas. A family fiasco from the past has got your head in a spin but do your best to sort out domestic dramas.

It’s a wonderful week to expand your world via exciting foreign friendships and international contacts. If you link up with like-minded people, then it will open up doors of opportunity. But be careful what you post online, as a comment could lead to controversy.

On Tuesday and Wednesday, the planets help you power through projects. You’ll find the combination of endurance and energy is a winning double. Attached Pisceans – be patient with your partner. Singles – love and travel are linked.

THE LAST WORD

HISTORY REPEATS The discovery of an old WWII book prompts Richard O’Leary to warn of the risks of clowns in politics.

W

e’re moving house, and despite filling our second skip bin in a matter of six months, it’s still difficult to throw some things away.

In the past few days I have found myself reading angst-ridden poetry from my first years at uni, and trying to put names to faces in old photos discovered in long forgotten boxes.

But amongst the debris of my existence I have unearthed the occasional treasure, including one of my textbooks from high school, AJP Taylor’s The Origins of the Second World War. This was one of my favourite books in high school – I was drawn in by Taylor’s lively style, a stark contrast to many of his contemporaries.

The book left an indelible mark on my outlook about that war – although not as permanent as my notes written in ink on many of its pages. No wonder I didn’t return it. It’s now 20 years overdue.

Taylor mounts an argument that the Treaty of Versailles after The Great War made the Second World War all but inevitable.

A lot of it still holds up, although modern history books adopt a different style to answer similar questions, with a greater focus on personalities to explain the issues.

A case in point, Volker Ullrich’s new book Hitler: Ascent, 1889-1939. I’ve only read a review of the book, but from all reports it will need to be added to the Christmas wish list.

The New York Times reviewer Michiko Kakutani says: “Mr Ullrich, like other biographers, provides vivid insight into some factors that helped turn a ‘Munich rabble-rouser’ – regarded by many as a self-obsessed clown with a strangely ‘scattershot, impulsive style’ – into ‘the lord and master of the German Reich.’

“Hitler was often described as an egomaniac who ‘only loved himself’ – a narcissist with a taste for self-dramatisation and what Mr. Ullrich calls a ‘characteristic fondness for superlatives.’

“Hitler was known, among colleagues, for a “bottomless mendacity. Hitler was an effective orator and actor. Hitler increasingly presented himself in messianic terms, promising to lead Germany to a new era of national greatness, though he was typically vague about his actual plans.”

Sound familiar?

And although aware of Godwin’s Law (the adage that if you mention Nazism you automatically lose the argument), there has to be an exception to every rule – and I am not the first to mention the similarities between the rise of Hitler and Trump.

Both shallow, narcissistic, and shameless individuals taking advantage of widespread dissatisfaction with the status quo.

What has that got to do with me moving?

Not a lot. Although I suspect many Americans will be thinking of packing up if Trump wins The first wall may not be on the Mexican border but in the country’s north, built and paid for by Canadians. roleary@myweeklypreview.com.au.
