lovely place to holiday... beautiful place to live. The Sunshine Coast is a perfect holiday destination. From the lush hinterland to its pristine coastline, it’s as if it were created to encourage our wellbeing. For many the attraction becomes so great that it becomes the perfect place to call home. And for good reason. Unlike of lot of sea change options, Sunshine Cove doesn’t require you to sacriﬁce a modern, urban lifestyle or indeed the facilities and resources that come with it. Sunshine Cove is not only located in the heart of Maroochydore’s CBD, its adjacent to the recently commenced SunCentral, multimillion dollar Maroochydore CBD redevelopment. The largest ever undertaken within regional Australia.

With 36 hectares of parklands and conservation zones, all linked by walking and bike ways to our lake foreshore, Sunshine Cove’s facilities and Maroochydore itself, you have the best of both worlds. A balance between what we have to do everyday, and your true lifestyle desires. From waterfront blocks that look out over stunning north facing lake vistas, to park side terrace allotments offering beautiful landscaped parkland scenery you have an abundance of choices when it comes to homesites. Whether it’s a larger family home, a waterfront terrace or an inner city townhouse you have the ﬂexibility to design the home that meets your individual needs.

It’s a reality that more, and more people are achieving when they choose to call Sunshine Cove home or indeed create an investment for their future. We invite you to come take a walk around Sunshine Cove. Wander along our boardwalks and pathways, for only then will you appreciate the lifestyle we are building here. And if you’d like to know more... come talk to us.

s we left the house on Tuesday morning, my three-year-old, who is on a power-saving crusade, asked if I had remembered to turn the wifi off. I was struck by how his childhood differs from years gone by. I was 13 before the internet played a regular role in my world and then it was used to send a few emails and chat in Messenger, something that was all the rage in the life of a ‘90s teenager. You couldn’t do much more on the weak dial-up connection. We couldn’t have imagined how far technology could advance our world in the short space of time it has. Today there are more than 2.3 billion internet users globally – a figure that continues to grow. This week, journalist Sarah Morgan delves into the technological world and speaks with teens who are creating their own opportunities. The Sunshine Coast is a hotspot for innovative startup businesses driven by the advancing industry. Our youth are creating inspiring and exciting projects. Also this edition, Roxanne McCartyO’Kane finds out why the region’s property market is thriving. In travel, we visit Peru and don’t miss our local news, beauty and health sections.

QUICK CHAT

A FEEL FOR GOOD FOOD Larissa White of Buderim is a restauranteur with a passion for fresh produce and edible street verge gardening. FIRST JOB?

FAVOURITE PLACE ON THE SUNSHINE COAST?

In my mum and dad’s building business. I started when I was 10. I worked in the office, filing, typing, answering the phone, taking Dad coffee and sandwiches. I really wanted to work on the building site like my two brothers but Dad insisted “it is no place for a young girl”. I know now Dad was protecting me from the rough talk of the boys, but back then, I did put forward my feminist case.

Buderim and Peregian.

WHERE DO YOU TAKE VISITORS WHEN THEY COME TO THE COAST? Early Saturday morning at the Hinterland Harvest Markets in Woombye talking to the local producers and picking up fresh produce for the week ahead. A stroll through Buderim village stopping for a coffee at one of the cafes, then some browsing through the wonderful local shops. A hike to Buderim Forest Park to enjoy our natural paradise and build up an appetite for pizza and vino at Hungry Feel. Sunday morning to Cotton Tree for an early swim. Point the car north and head to Peregian markets then on to Gympie and out to Imbil, stopping for fresh local roadside produce.

WHAT ARE YOU CURRENTLY WORKING ON? Building a social media presence for our cafe Hungry Feel, beginning our new autumn menu and wine list, promoting support for small local business.

YOUR FAMILY INCLUDES. . . My husband Christopher and daughters Amelie (12) and Marva (9) and our 30 pond guppies (and multiplying faster than I can count).

IF YOU COULD CHANGE ONE THING ON THE COAST, WHAT WOULD IT BE? Positive support and encouragement from our local council for edible verge plantings within suburbia. It is a shame to see a community doing amazing things yet council is not on board. Come on council, get green and get with the program. Sustainable? Innovative? You can be.

FIRST CAR? A red Toyota Corona.

WHAT ACHIEVEMENT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF? Opening our first restaurant, Hungry Feel Eating House in Buderim. I am proud to have created a local space where people meet to eat, drink and converse.

CAN YOU NOMINATE A DAY IN YOUR LIFE THAT TURNED OUT TO BE A TURNING POINT? When a mentor told me: “Just do it. Believe in yourself”. That moment I stopped finding reasons to put off opening our restaurant and just did it.

FAVOURITE BOOK? Mao’s Last Dancer by Li Cunxin.

WHAT ARE YOU READING NOW? The Natural Way of Things by Charlotte Wood.

FAVOURITE SONG? High Tide or Low Tide by Bob Marley. We had a verse from the song in our wedding vows.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU LIVED HERE? All my life except for 10 years of study and travel.

BEST DAY IN YOUR LIFE? Larissa and Christopher White

BEST ADVICE YOU’VE BEEN GIVEN? Believe in yourself. It comes from within.

WHY DO YOU LIVE HERE? My mum and dad live here. They are such a great help. I couldn’t successfully run a restaurant and a family without them. And the Sunny Coast provides us with abundance. Fresh air, great beaches, awesome produce. We really are sitting in a food bowl. So much is available to consumers grown and produced right here on the Sunshine Coast. From vegetables to tropical and exotic fruits, salads, poultry, beef, pork, seafood, cheese. It’s all here. Just go for a drive into the hills and you’ll be proud of what this area provides.

Three days, the birth of my first daughter, the birth of my second daughter and marrying my soul mate. Oh, and meeting Ben Harper.

YOUR GREATEST REGRET? Seeing Michael Franti in the crowd at Caloundra Music Festival and not going over for a dance.

YOU ARE HAPPIEST WHEN? Doing yoga, dancing, Sundays with my family and friends.

IF YOU COULD TELL YOUR 18-YEAR-OLD SELF ANYTHING, WHAT WOULD IT BE? It’s what’s on the inside that counts.

TEA OR COFFEE? Coffee, long black.

NRL OR AFL? Broncos – Queenslander!

BY THE NUMBERS

THE LIST

2000

Is it just me or is the world changing faster than you can say innovation? If you struggle to keep up with technological advancements, check out this list from the MIT Technology Review. Each year the team releases the top 10 breakthrough technologies. Here are five from the 2017 list:

It’s hard to believe it’s been 17 years since Bluetooth technology was integrated into mobile phones and computers. The year was 2000 and I can recall being in awe of such a device. Today, I use this technology multiple times a day and I’m certainly not the only one.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “Technology is just a tool. In terms of getting the kids working together and motivating them, the teacher is the most important.” Bill Gates

DO YOU REMEMBER?

1. Reversing paralysis – scientists are closer than ever to using brain implants for this medical breakthrough. 2. Hot solar cells – a breakthrough on solar efficiency. 3. Gene therapy – the treatment of disease by replacing affected genes. 4. The Cell Atlas – In October 2016 scientists collaborated to discuss the creation of a human Cell Atlas, maps that will describe cellular health and disease. 5. Face recognition – China is now using this technology to allow access to buildings and to authorise payments. SOURCE: RECHNOLOGYREVIEW.COM

DID YOU KNOW? When Saturday rolled around it always meant one certain thing in our household: family movie night. As children we would sit eagerly around the TV and a VCR that looked just like this one. Dad would hold the remote control, which was connected via a cord, and fast forward through the previews of whatever 1980s video we had selected.

THE WORLD OF WORDS WORD OF THE WEEK Mainframe

The word ‘technology’ comes from the Greek words techne, which means art and skill, and logos, which translates to expression or to speak of.

In 2012, iBabies were a hot trend. According to the annual BabyCentre most popular names list, six girls were named Apple that year, at least 49 boys were called Mac and 17 girls were named Siri.

YAROOMBA BEACH COMMUNITY UPDATE WELCOME to our regular update to the community on our Yaroomba Beach proposal.

Council has committed to ensuring they will never be developed.

The Sunshine Coast is aiming to be Australia’s most sustainable region, and we are working hard to do whatever we can to help.

We’re very keen to help people know more about this unique ecology. Our plans include a state-of-the-art Beach Ecology and Indigenous Centre to provide fun and interactive information about the sand dunes, and the area’s wonderful plants and wildlife.

For example, we have committed to a long term sponsorship of Sunshine Coast University’s world-leading marine and coastal research team to investigate and identify the best way to improve the interaction between communities and beach ecology. The findings will benefit not just Yaroomba Beach, but all coastal communities from Caloundra to Noosa. The site for Yaroomba Beach is located next to important dune forms, known as parabolic and frontal dunes. These dunes are not owned by Sekisui House and are outside our site boundary and we will not affect them in any way. Importantly, the Sunshine Coast

It will be a centre that is completely different to what we’ve seen before at the Sunshine Coast. Displays, storytelling and walking tours will delve into our local Indigenous heritage as well as our ecology. We’ll have lots of information about nesting turtles and how we can all play a part to protect their habitat. But we’re not just interested in theory. We are designing Yaroomba Beach to have the lowest possible impact on turtles by installing leading lighting technology so there is no illumination on the beach from our site.

We will also ensure at least 10% of the site’s mature vegetation is retained, while implementing extensive planting as part of our landscape plan to support a walkable, rideable and healthy neighbourhood with active spaces and 3km of pathways through native trees and shrubs. The existing approval is for a gated residential development, which clear fells the entire site, significant levels of imported fill (100,000m3), and no commitment to

environmental management. In stark contrast, we are targeting a 6 Star Green Star community rating for our new coastal village and are planning a range of innovations to manage energy, water and waste, and building on Sekisui House’s proven track record for delivering low impact, sustainable projects.

COVER STORY

BRIGHT SPARKS SHINE ON SILICON BEACH The Sunshine Coast is fast gaining a reputation for its dynamic startup culture, with government, business and youth banding together to create a prosperous future that harnesses the power of cutting-edge technology. WORDS: Sarah Morgan.

“It’s a startup heaven. While there is still lots of work to do, there is such an awesome vibe and everyone is collaborative” Mackenzie Reardon working from Spark Bureau, Maroochydore Image: Greg Gardner Photography

he days when members of the Sunshine Coast’s young technology community would have to leave in pursuit of better opportunities elsewhere seems to be a thing of the past, thanks to the evolution of startups, grants and creative incubators. In fact, the growth of the region’s tech community is starting to gain notoriety as ‘Silicon Beach’, as more and more young digital entrepreneurs and technology businesses call the Coast home. A catalyst for this growth stems from when the region’s innovative culture and ecosystem received some of the highest recognition possible from internet giant Google through its eTown award in 2013. That was followed by the Sunshine Coast Council’s submission to the Australian Communications and Media Authority to seek the declaration of an international broadband submarine cable protection zone off-shore from the Sunshine Coast. If approved, the Coast will be the only regional centre in Australia able to offer direct international broadband connectivity to global markets. It is forecast to contribute more than $700 million each year to the local economy and make the region a drawcard for new businesses, software developers and companies heavily reliant on the swift

transfer of large quantities of data. And if that’s not enough, the council launched a $1.6-million Smart City Implementation Plan late last year, which will deliver tangible smart technologies and infrastructure to the region. Networking groups such as Silicon Coast and co-working spaces like Share Space, Hive and Spark Bureau are thriving. And the pioneers of this revolution? Our local youth. Maroochydore’s Mackenzie Reardon, 18, is helping drive this tech revolution. Reardon is a co-founder of youth-led

lots of work to do, there is such an awesome vibe and everyone is collaborative and keen to work together.” While most 14-year-olds were working a part-time job at the local takeaway shop, Reardon was setting up an e-commerce company based on predicting emerging technology trends. His business became so popular that PayPal and eBay tried to shut his accounts down as they didn’t believe someone so young could be doing so well. Reardon established Nexti, with key partners, after struggling to find the support

“…many of the jobs and careers of the future haven’t even been created yet and they’ll be shaped by our bright young minds” Mayor Mark Jamieson

enterprise Nexti, which connects the Coast’s young entrepreneurs and future innovators who are looking to develop startups. “The Coast’s tech startup community is booming,” Reardon says. “It’s just crazy. I just heard of Coast-based six-year-olds who are already coding. “It’s a startup heaven. While there is still

and guidance he needed when he established his first tech company while at high school. “Being under 18 had its barriers in terms of running a business as clients didn’t trust me or take me seriously because of my age,” Reardon says. “I faced some big road blocks as clients

wouldn’t trust that a teenager could provide quality products or that I was even serious. “I remember walking into a bank and trying to set up a foreign exchange account and they looked at me weirdly. While it seems like small stuff, it slowed me down, but it didn’t stop me. “I just taught myself different skills in e-commerce and troubleshooting problems that came up. It wasn’t by reading books, it was actually doing it.” It’s this drive that led Reardon to apply his knowledge to Nexti, where he shares his experiences with young entrepreneurs. Before he left school in Year 11, Reardon connected with a mentor who suggested he use these experiences to help others in the same situation. “I remember I was telling him about my pain points for running a business at such a young age and he said ‘you know there must be other kids out there who are feeling disengaged with school and looking to set up their own opportunities. You could share your experiences’,” Reardon says. “The response has been great and I think by sharing my story other students can see that there are many cool opportunities out there.” Reardon says the development of such a program is testament to the Coast’s growing technology community. myweeklypreview.com.au

COVER STORY “My goal and passion is to inspire young people like myself to engage in entrepreneurship and innovation at an early age,” he says. “There is definitely a movement happening with the likes of Spark Bureau and other incubators and grants.” One such grant is the Sunshine Coast Regional Council Mayor’s Telstra Technology Awards, which has more than $20,000 worth of prizes for students and their schools. With ideas ranging from mobile applications, websites and GPS trackers to musical staircases, environmentally-friendly cars and 3D mapping software, it’s clear to see that the Coast has a plethora of talent coming through in the next generation. Last year’s winners were the EJ2 team of Jordan Josic, Ellen Massey and John Beriman from Caloundra’s Unity College. Their EJ2 Estress mobile application helps school students monitor and manage stress. Since winning, the trio has further developed the app and their own skill sets. “It (the award) offered us insight into the business world and presented us with priceless opportunities to network and be mentored by entrepreneurs, many who are experts of their fields,” Josic says. “Our experience has been insightful and educating… it was a perfect opportunity to learn not only about technology, but also about business, marketing and other important skills that are crucial to anyone interested in entrepreneurship.” Josic, Massey and Beriman all started dabbling in technology from a young age and are looking to continue their experience after school, hopefully on the Coast. “Technology is an ever-expanding and ever-changing industry,” Beriman says. “Continued support and the drive of the Sunshine Coast Council and influential contributors will eventually result in the rise of students studying technology.” They collectively believe the Coast will offer them the opportunities they need to continue their journey in the sector. “Technology is rising to be one of the most integral fields to work in for the betterment of society,” Josic says.

“The Sunshine Coast is perceived as a regional area, where in our opinion with how big the Coast is and all the things that are happening here, it will become more of a great destination for technology companies especially as the new Maroochydore CBD is established and as the international submarine broadband cable makes a new home on our doorstep. “Over the last number of years, the Sunshine Coast has become increasingly interested in supporting technological and entrepreneurial skills with events that have allowed people, youth in particular, to develop skills that they would not ordinarily get. “We believe that the Sunshine Coast is currently on track to being a hub for technological advances in improving the

everyday lives of ordinary Australians.” But the key is to ensure the support and initiatives continue. “Continued support for those who work in technology will help the Sunshine Coast’s involvement in the industry to continue to flourish,” Massey says. “Through all the different initiatives, we believe the Sunshine Coast is on the right track to becoming the startup capital of Australia.” Massey says it’s imperative her peers get involved in technology, despite what field they go into in the future. “I believe regardless of what industry or field you work in, technology has a role to play. Therefore, it is essential to hold a form of understanding of the technological industry and its uses, especially in our ever-changing society.” Sunshine Coast Regional Council’s Mayor Mark Jamieson says knowledge and professional services are high-value industries and key to the future employment and economic prosperity on the Sunshine Coast under the Regional Economic Development Strategy 2013-2033. “This is so important because many of the jobs and careers of the future haven’t even been created yet and they’ll be shaped by our bright young minds,” Jamieson says. “The University of the Sunshine Coast, the Innovation Centre, the Institute of Professional Learning, Mountain Creek Coding and Innovation Hub as well as the Engage Lab at USC and Spark Bureau all support this growing industry sector within our region.” Jamieson says IT services, games and smartphone application development, architecture and design are all experiencing high growth in the region. “One of our priorities is to encourage our bright sparks and outside–the-box thinkers to emerge and be able to take advantage of future career opportunities that will arise from projects like the Smart City development at Maroochydore, the Sunshine Coast Solar Farm and the international broadband submarine cable project,” he says.

Reardon, who just returned from visiting San Francisco and Silicon Valley for his 18th birthday, says the Coast is heading in the right direction. During his visit he met with a long list of entrepreneurs and tech companies. “It was amazing,” he says. “The eco-system over there is just so inspiring. Everyone wants to help you and if they can’t they will introduce you to someone who can. “I do see a lot of similarities to here. People are open to sharing ideas and working together. We’ve just got such a great vibe going on here and it’s only going to get better.”

THE MAYOR’S TELSTRA TECHNOLOGY AWARDS

Jordan Josic, Ellen Massey, John Berriman Aimed at Sunshine Coast high schools, the Mayor’s Telstra Technology Awards is open for students in years 10–12 who have a new or creative use of technology. It could be a new app, new concepts in social media, gaming technology or robotics or an application of existing technology in a novel way to solve a community, environmental or business challenge. The awards are now open and round one of the competition closes on April 10.

New solid scientific evidence suggests that adjusting the spine changes the way the pre-frontal cortex of the brain is processing information by almost 20%.

Research shows chiropractic changes brain function by almost 20%*

The pre-frontal cortex is responsible for behaviour, goal directed tasks, decision making, memory and attention, intelligence, processing of pain and emotional response to it, autonomic function, motor control, eye movements and spatial awareness.

OF THE WEEK

REBEL FOOLS Actress Rebel Wilson was injured on the set of Pitch Perfect 3 after taking a tumble…or was she? The star pulled off an epic prank on the crew by pretending to slice her leg open outside her trailer after falling down the stairs. She shared a video on Twitter of her April Fool's prank, in which she can be heard wailing in pain as several people attempt to help her. She then yells: "April fools", prompting applause and laughter from her co-workers.

MASTERS SWIMMING CLUB BRINGS HOME 27 MEDALS A group of seven swimmers from Sunshine Coast Masters swimming club recently travelled to the Gold Coast to compete in the Australian and Queensland Masters Swim Meet. They took the meet by storm, winning a total of 27 medals with personal best times achieved. Among the haul was a gold medal for one of the relay teams. Incredibly, club president Bronwyn Low says it was the first meet for some swimmers. For more information on the Sunshine Coast Masters, including training times, visit sunshinecoastmastersswimming.com.au.

FIRST BABY BORN AT SUNSHINE COAST UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL The first baby has been born on the first day maternity services began at the new Sunshine Coast University Hospital. Mother Amber Noble delivered her baby girl at 12.51pm on March 27. Sunshine Coast Health and Hospital Service director of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Dr Marc Miller says the arrival is a proud moment for the team. As well as the first birth, the Women’s and Families Service at SCUH also saw the first women in the Day Assessment Unit, a dedicated space for expectant mothers who need assessment for pregnancy complications such as obesity, high blood pressure and gestational diabetes.

DRIVEN TO LEARN Around 30 young drivers and their parents have been taught the basics of motoring during an education night held by Ken Mills Toyota, in partnership with LifeFlight. During the hands-on workshop held at Ken Mills’ Maroochydore service centre, participants learnt how to change a tyre, how to maintain their car properly and keep themselves safe by recognising dangerous wear and tear. LifeFlight Paramedic Brad Solomon gave a powerful talk on the night, providing a first-hand account of what it’s like to be first on the scene at a crash. Participants also received a First on Traffic Scene Glovebox Resource Kit from LifeFlight.

$2.1 MILLION

A $2.1 million expansion of Maroochydore Basketball Stadium is already opening opportunities for sport on the Sunshine Coast and helping local clubs to grow. The addition of two new indoor courts has allowed junior basketball teams to almost double, provided the Sunshine Coast Basketball Association with a home venue to play junior representative games, and allowed the stadium to host major events such as an Australia Day Cup and Special Olympics State Games events.

MISSING SS DICKY BELL RECOVERED The whereabouts of the SS Dicky’s bell has been a mystery since she ran aground in 1893. But a letter in the archives of the Dicky Beach Surf Club revealed the bell was purchased at an auction and it became a time signal at Sun Engineering Works in Fortitude Valley. In 2014 the SS Dicky Division 2 Cr Tim Dwyer, Landsborough Taskforce started looking at how to Historical Society Management Committee member Tim Venter and Maryborough Olds bring the bell back ‘home’. Olds Engineering director, Peter Olds Engineering in Maryborough used the original bell, loaned to the taskforce by the current owner, as a mould to create three replica bells. One is on display in the SS Dicky Museum Box at the Caloundra Library until April 20. The second bell is at the Landsborough Museum and the third will feature in the Dicky Beach park redevelopment.

tudying to become a tradesperson could become a lot easier for young people on the Sunshine Coast, with a strong collaboration of industry heavyweights preparing a bid to set up an Australian Industry Training College campus in the region by the middle of next year. For the past 12 months a volunteer group of local leaders and community representatives have been developing plans in partnership with the highly successful Australian Industry Training College (AITC) to establish an industry-led trade college on the Coast. The AITC has been operating on the Gold Coast for more than eight years and recently extended its program to Cleveland. It boasts 150 graduates each year, with a 90 per cent employment rate. Sunshine Coast AITC Partnership chair Andrew Grimshaw says the program is an exciting opportunity for young people who want to pursue a trade career in an era where trades are in high demand in the region. “The college offers unprecedented opportunities for young people and is the framework of The Sunshine Coast AITC Partnership, with the primary focus to support young people in trade and employment

the workforce.” The Sunshine Coast partnership is in the consultation phase, engaging with industry and local businesses to make sure what they are proposing fits with what the region needs. A location has not yet been decided on and will be something the team will work on with potential investors in the coming months. “With massive growth on the Sunshine Coast with developments like Palmview, Caloundra South and other massive residential developments, there is a real clamour for skilled people and youth unemployment on the Sunshine Coast has been stubbornly high for some time. This is another opportunity to feed young people into employment, and it’s sustainable employment as well,” Grimshaw says. “There is a lot of research that shows you don’t have to go to university to be a success, you can start your career that much earlier on and once you enter the trades, research shows you can earn just as much as university graduates and enjoy the same kind of sustainable career.”

PROFILE

THEY CALL IT PUPPY LOVE Brendan Ainsworth has spent 20 years training dogs for the vision impaired and says he has the best job in the world. WORDS: Leigh Robshaw.

IMAGE: TRACY NAUGHTON

rendan Ainsworth didn’t always love dogs – in fact, he was terrified of them. At the age of 10, he was walking home from school when a neighbour’s labrador attacked him, leaving deep emotional scars. “I was petrified of dogs for years, but then I met a few friendly dogs that changed my fear to enjoyment,” he says. “I started to see how much fun a dog can be. They always are happy to see you and always bring a smile to my face. It’s amazing how a dog can brighten up your day.” Ainsworth warmed to dogs so much that he began volunteering at the Guide Dogs Australia kennels in Brisbane and before long had embarked on a cadetship as a trainer, spending 20 years with the organisation. Having moved to Buderim nine years ago, he left Guide Dogs Australia and began working for Vision Australia Seeing Eye Dogs at the Maroochydore branch when a job came up five months ago. Plenty of people are envious of what he agrees is a fun and rewarding role. When he walks along Mooloolaba Esplanade with 10-week-old yellow labrador Marin, he can’t get more than 10 steps without being stopped. “Marin is insanely cute,” Ainsworth says. “He’s really small for a puppy. They all wear a blue coat when they’re out in public so they’re all identifiable. His coat looks like a little baby coat.” Unfortunately these puppies can’t be patted as they are working dogs learning specific skills when they are out and about and any distraction can interfere with the process. “We have to say to people, please try and ignore the puppy because he’s working at the moment. We try and explain why – that if you talk to this puppy or encourage it to get up or distract it, you’re undoing a behaviour we’re trying to train them in. Most people understand.” It’s Ainsworth’s job to help train the puppies and find and support local volunteers willing to care for a golden retriever or labrador puppy for 12 to 15 months, before it goes on to become a fully-trained adult Seeing Eye Dog. “It’s very social – I get to meet lots of different people,” he says. “I get to work with puppies and everyone tells me when I walk past I’ve got the best job in the world.” Seeing Eye Dogs perform a valuable community role, giving independent mobility and companionship to hundreds of vision impaired people around Australia, and it all starts with training those adorable puppies. The reason golden retrievers and labradors (or a crossbreed of the two) are chosen is that they are people oriented, publicly accepted, trainable and have a lovely nature. Ainsworth says the way the dogs are trained has change a lot in the past 20 years.

Brendan Ainsworth with Seeing Eye Dog in training, Marin “It used to be a very dominant training approach,” he says. “The dog listened to you because you were the alpha leader. Now it’s a positive reward-based training mechanism. You breed the dog to be a willing, confident dog. We show them what to do – if you want them to stop at the kerb, you stop them and then they get a treat. You reward them. If you want them to sit, you hold a piece of food slightly above their nose, they look up and go into the sit position, then you treat them and do it over and over again.” The greatest misconception about Seeing Eye Dogs, he says, is that they don’t have any fun. “The idea of the training is to make it like a game. So when they avoid an obstacle they are treated and praised and it becomes a game. They then want to repeat that behaviour over and over to get that praise. When they are not in a work situation they are free to play about like any other dog. The big positive is that they can go wherever the handler/client goes. So they are rarely left alone.” Ainsworth is currently working with four Sunshine Coast

families who’ve taken on puppies and is looking for at least eight more families to come on board. “It is heartbreaking when they leave, there’s no getting around it,” he says. “But you commit to it knowing it’s going to be the case in the end. It’s very emotional. But you’re doing a lot of good for the community. You’re helping someone and you’re also learning about dog behaviour and dog obedience. You get to meet lots of people and make new friends. You have a puppy in your home for a year, you get to love it and it’s free of charge. If you really enjoy it – this is the big thing – you can come back and do it again. You have all that experience and it becomes a lot easier.” All costs associated with the puppy are incurred by Vision Australia, including food, vet bills, vaccinations equipment and toys. Seeing Eye Dogs and puppies have the legal right to go into cafes, restaurants, cinemas and shopping centres, and taking them to these places is part of the job. “You have to teach them basic obedience and manners. They can play and be puppies but no jumping up and mouthing people. They have to learn to toilet on cue outside. You have to teach them good manners at home and socialise them to every situation a Seeing Eye Dog would experience, from train travel and bus travel to walking on escalators, walking on grass with minimal sniffing and staying calm while you have a coffee at a cafe.” Ainsworth visits puppy carers once a week to begin with, helping to iron out any behavioural issues and taking the occasional naughty puppy home with him. “I’ve had a lot of puppies in and out of my house over the years,” he says. “I make sure I turn up weekly so carers can air any issues they may be having. I try to get them together monthly for a group obedience session, so they can all talk amongst themselves.” Ainsworth has seen first-hand the difference these dogs make to the lives of people with vision impairment. “I’ve trained a lot of dogs over the years and you do get to meet some of the clients,” he says. “I’ve had people in tears saying thank you for what you’ve done. A dog for a visually impaired person is a companion, a partner. It’s an enormous part of their lives. I saw one of my dogs walking through Chermside shopping centre with its handler and I almost started crying because it looked so amazing. It’s an emotional trip for everybody – for the staff, clients and volunteers.”

ou are what you eat, right? When we eat whole, organic foods, we experience sustainably high energy levels, balanced emotions and an overall sense of fulfilment towards life. However, it’s not always as easy as it sounds and our busy schedules can sometimes prevent us from being able to show our bodies the love they deserve. So how do we make sure our diet is full of nutrient-dense goodness all the time? Here’s a list of four amazing everyday foods for health and vitality.

1. APPLES The old Welsh proverb, “an apple a day keeps the doctor away” might really have some truth to it, but what makes this common fruit so beneficial? Apples are one of the most widely consumed fruits in the whole world and are rich in essential antioxidants, flavonoids, and dietary fibre.

2. BROCCOLI SPROUTS Some research suggests that broccoli sprouts are even more potent than their grown-up counterparts. Small amounts of fresh broccoli sprouts have been shown to contain as much cancer protection as substantially larger amounts of the mature vegetable, according to researchers at Johns Hopkins University. One compound called sulforaphane may even improve the liver’s capacity to remove carcinogens. December 7, 2016

3. MUSHROOMS Mushrooms are an excellent source of bioavailable iron, which promotes the formation of red blood cells. The body can absorb over 90 per cent of the nutritive iron value in these fabulous little fungi.

SO PRETTY: RETRO PINK NAILS

4. LEMONS

For a soft and feminine look, try nail polish that takes its colour cues from 1950s pastels.

Did you know that one standard lemon contains 100 per cent of your daily vitamin C requirement? This is particularly necessary for supporting a healthy immune system within the human body, as we do not retain or produce vitamin C naturally. Lemons also aid digestion, reduce appetite, balance pH levels and support detoxification.

MY OPINION

IT’S ALL FUN AND GAMES

SEARCH FOR THE SILVER LINING

The removal of the thimble token from Monopoly gets Sami Muirhead reminiscing about the good old days of family board games.

When life gets difficult, looking for the silver lining can be liberating, writes Richard Bruinsma.

travesty of justice has occurred in recent times and it has happened without so much as a bleep of outrage. The thimble game piece has gone from Monopoly. I repeat, they have sent the thimble to the scrap pile. So too is the sad fate of the boot and the wheelbarrow tokens. An icy cold hand ripped at my heart when I heard the news. What is next? Will they get rid of Chiko Rolls because they actually do not contain any chicken? Will we be judged for eating chocolate before breakfast on Easter Sunday? Earlier this year, Hasbro decided to allow the public to vote on which game pieces it should keep, which was mistake number one. Democracy is not always a good thing. The makers of the game claim more than four million people voted in over 100 countries. Fools who clearly do not respect the tradition of the game voted in favour of introducing a tyrannosaurus rex token, a penguin and a rubber ducky. Novelty pieces that are not steeped in tradition. You see kids, before mobile phones were invented we actually went months without taking a photograph. And we actually played board games. With our brothers and sisters. And wait for it: with our parents. I have many good and bad memories of playing Monopoly with my big brother (the cheat) and my big sister (the property tycoon) that would inevitably end up with me in jail and

not allowed to pass go while the eldest sibling laughed all the way to the bank after she secured Park Lane and Mayfair. We played as a family and we were allowed to eat chips and drink cordial. Monopoly was always there through puberty, through relationship bust-ups and through the arrival of modern technology. Screaming at my siblings and swearing to kill them in their sleep during marathon Monopoly matches are some of my warmest memories of childhood.

“The thimble piece has gone from Monopoly…” What will our kids remember today? Watching a movie on their tablet by themselves with their headphones on? My kids are still a little young for Monopoly but I cannot wait to teach them the highs and lows of the game and to show them Mummy does have a very competitive side. We still have another week of holidays – maybe you will dig out the Monopoly board and teach the kids how to play. The classic tokens that will live to see another year are the Scottish terrier, the battleship, the race car and the top hat. Thank the Lord. I will sleep better tonight knowing that some order has been restored to our society.

ne of the biggest challenges for all of us is to find the positive in a negative situation. But, fortunately, it’s a challenge that is worthwhile for the great growth and pep it brings to our lives. It’s too often a default position today for many of us to focus on the difficulties in our lives, letting those worries get us down and robbing us of our enthusiasm and energy, when, in the far reaches of our brains, we already know the snowballing effect of looking at the positives. At some point, most of us have experienced the liberating ‘aha’ moment when we suddenly see the silver lining appear on one of our dark clouds. We need to make it a habit of doing this daily. I was reminded of this with the story of an expectant mother in 1960s Italy, who was told by doctors that her unborn child had a disability and should be terminated. The mother refused, and that baby, born blind, went on to become the worldrenowned tenor Andrea Bocelli, whose gift of song is a comfort to fans globally. In another story, a young American teen, homeless and massively overweight, was told repeatedly by his adoptive father, who knew there was a silver lining to his difficult life, that he would one day be the world’s

best basketball forward. With that support Caleb Swanigan today plays for the Purdue Boilermakers and is, in fact, regarded as one of the most talented college basketball players in the country. Silver linings don’t have to come like a sledgehammer. They are present on a small scale in our everyday lives: athletes make sacrifices to achieve gold; students spend late nights studying to achieve eventual academic success; young workers go without and save their pennies with the aim of buying a house. Even the smile on the face of our children is something worth being thankful for. With Easter approaching, Christians remember the death of Jesus on Good Friday, which was followed by a silver lining three days later with his resurrection and the promise of new life. While each of us is experiencing different life challenges, and we should never make light of hardship, there’s great value (and certainly no harm) in searching for the presence of that powerful silver lining. To find it is comforting, empowering, it builds character and wisdom and importantly, gives us strength in readiness for the next time another dark cloud begins to approach.

Remnants of round houses in Kuelap, a ruined citadel city of Chachapoyas in the cloud forests of northern Peru

PERU’S LOST CITY IN THE SKY OPENS UP A new ruined city in the sky is set to steal some of Machu Picchu’s thunder. By Sarah Marshall, AAP.

ascading bromeliads weigh heavy on near-horizontal tree trunks, like garish jewels dragging at the strained necks of stooped old ladies. As persistent drizzle becomes unrelenting, heavy rain, they glisten with bygone beauty.

safe from enemy eyes. Machu Picchu is of course the most famous site of all, but further north in the cloud forests of Amazonas is a place far grander in age and scale. Yet few travellers even know it’s there. Built in 500AD by the Chachapoyas people, high-walled fortress town Kuelap

predates Peru’s Inca big hitter by 900 years. Sixteenth century chronicles written by Spanish conquistadors speak of Amazonas – a region of tumbling rivers, steep gorges and mountains quilted with frog green forests – as being one of the hardest regions to reach. One modern guidebook warns: you never know what time you’ll arrive in main city Chachapoyas. Up until now, that was the case. But the opening of an airport at Jaen, in the neighbouring Cajamarca region, has greatly eased access, with 90-minute flights operating from Lima. A big fuss is also being made about the new multimillion-dollar cable car connecting Kuelap to the small village of Nuevo Tingo, turning a 1.5-hour stomach-spinning drive around hairpin bends into an easy 20-minute glide. In truth, the time saved isn’t particularly significant, but the government project, designed to ease crowd pressure on Machu Picchu by opening up new archaeological areas, has brought international attention to this under-appreciated corner of Peru. Entering through a narrow, tapering entrance, I clamber over slippery limestone rocks to find the remains of 400-plus houses – round, windowless buildings that once had conical thatched roofs. Decorations include diamond shapes inspired by feline eyes, and the unexplained

relief of a stunned face staring from a temple wall. Slowly disintegrating bones are visible in some crevices, belonging to the 1000-plus bodies buried in Kuelap’s walls. Only a third of the site, eventually infiltrated by Incas in the late 1400s, has been excavated since being rediscovered in 1843. Efforts are currently underway to reverse some crude reconstructions in a bid to earn UNESCO World Heritage status, and when I visit, workmen are hurriedly banging nails into walkways in preparation for tourists. Numbers are expected to rise from 40,000 per year to 120,000, compared to the million-plus visitors Machu Picchu receives. All over Amazonas, ancient sites paint a picture of Chachapoyas’ life and – even more fascinating – death. Hewn into vertical cliff faces, high above ground, sarcophagi (stone coffins) in the shape of giant heads are topped with the prized skulls of warlords conquered by the warriors within. There are more than 30 burial sites; one of the best is at Karajia, in the north. But I choose to visit the mausoleums at Revash (a two-hour drive south of Kuelap, followed by a short trek), where small triangular-roofed houses embedded in the rocks feature ruby red paintings of pumas and the Southern Cross. Only nesting vultures can flit through the T-shaped windows, but looters have still

Catarata de Gocta managed to pillage 80 per cent of the contents. More than 200 Inca and Chachapoyas mummies are safeguarded in a controlled chamber at the excellent community-run Leymebamba museum, a 75-minute drive from Revash. Small muslin bundles bound up with rope and daubed with simple circular faces sit on dusty shelves like cocooned, incubating pupae, although none will flourish with life again.

Feeling Flat & Unmotivated? Mood Swings from Anger to Anxiety? Can’t Shift Weight? Could it be Hormonal?

Elbows and knees were originally broken to create the shrunken packages, and intestines removed through the rectum. Some of the compressed cadavers are exposed, saggy skin intact and surprisingly gleaming white sets of teeth lining their sunken jaws. One looks alarmingly familiar, clutching his agonised face in an uncanny resemblance to Edvard Munch’s The Scream. Still relatively new to tourism, Amazonas has few high-end accommodation options. I choose to stay at the idyllic Gocta Natura Cabins, an hour’s drive north from Chachapoyas, tracing the route of the Utcubamba River. Leaving a job at the World Bank in Lima behind her, lithe and energetic conservationist Rocio Florez has opened an eco-lodge of five stand-alone cabins set within reforested terraces, attracting endemic birds to the area for the first time in decades. But even at full gusto, their joyous melodies are drowned by the roaring Gocta Falls, a gaze-grabbing sight from wherever you stand on the property. Until 2005, when German Stefan Ziemendorff measured the two-drop cataract as one of the tallest in the world, the residents of Coachimba village were terrified of the myth-laden site supposedly filled with irresistible gold treasures. Imaginations ran wild with tales of a beautiful siren known for wooing and

Traditional Andean weaving destroying men with her thorn-lined vagina; another story recounted a large snail who’d rip open his cloak to reveal hundreds of writhing snake heads. “Many people are still convinced they’ll get sick if they touch certain rocks in the forest,” Rocio tells me, which perhaps explains why so many ancient sites have been hidden for so long. I wonder what mind-altering substances those ancestors must have been smoking, but find no magic plants on my sweaty, undulating trail to the falls. Overcoming their fears, local villagers have made a good business in guiding tourists, perhaps finally finding their pot of gold.

FROM THE HEART 5 minutes with Jason Bowker, principal of Planet Homes Qld Planet Homes Qld has been operating for six years now, what are some of the highlights? We have kicked some huge goals. We have been the recipient of over 15 awards for both HIA building awards and BDAQ design award. But without doubt our most proud moments have come when we are judged against our peers at both state and national levels. Weâ€™ve won and come runners up in categories such as Homes Up to $750,000, Display Home and Spec Home categories.

Heading

What sets you apart from other builders? We are a creative, vibrant and enthusiastic little team who prides ourselves on standing out as a result of our designs, our service and our ability to deliver outstanding homes. We stand apart when it comes to what we strive to achieve. The passion and performance comes as standard for us, but what we truly wish to achieve is the creation of an individual property, which clearly reflects the character or our clients.

We offer amazing designs, a full cost management process, personalised service and outstanding building results.

Creative, inventive, dynamic designs and building options

What kinds of homes do you specialise in? Our expertise lies in waterfront homes, acreage homes, holiday homes, homes on sloping sites and we do an awful lot of knocking down and rebuilding in many beachside suburbs.

“ ing Here

A unique one-off home is exactly that - its never been built before.

What is the most satisfying aspect of your job? I always find such great satisfaction, when my clients say, ‘you’ve nailed it’. For me, it’s much more than just the creation of a home from a written brief, a sketch or a photograph. It’s about looking at a client when we have finished the house and knowing without a shadow of a doubt that its their home. Not only have we followed a brief, but we understand how our clients live, what they want, how they function, what is near and dear to them and what makes them tick. What would you say to people considering a custom-built home? I often say that a design is, “just lines on bits of paper”. After all the creativity has been considered, we are all excited about the prospect of the building. However, a custom design is never without challenges. A unique one-off home is exactly that - its never been built before. There are many onsite considerations in order to build a well-detailed home with integrity, strength, character and the wow factor. Planet Homes is committed to providing homes to the highest quality. We always communicate and advise our clients every step of the way to achieve excellent outcomes and consistency of detail and quality.

FOR YOUR DIARY: Planet Homes Qld is producing a display in conjunction with Pelican Waters at Sydney Avenue. It’s one of the best Planet Homes creations to date, so pop it in your diary for an anticipated opening in late May.

OUR 50TH YEAR

DAM, WE NEED A RELIABLE WATER SUPPLY City fathers first began to pay attention to water as a community resource in the 1950s. Until then, writes Dot Whittington, it was every man for himself, with individual householders relying on rainwater tanks.

THIS MONTH IN HISTORY In early April 1960, the first part of the Noosa section of the coastal highway was opened by Premier Sir Frank Nicklin. It was built by Theiss Bros for real estate agents T.M. Burke and took about nine months. The road was built under the government’s Crown Land Development Act, which allowed private enterprise to develop land in return for roads and a percentage of the freehold sale.

Dam wall construction; Caloundra City’s Don Aldous, Premier Mike Ahern and Maroochy Shire’s Fred Murray at the opening; and today’s lake.

dam site on Obi Obi Creek at Baroon Pocket was first identified in 1946 as a worthy water supply that could serve both Maroochy and Landsborough Shires, but the proposal became lost in the rivalry between each council’s consulting engineers. Landsborough Shire’s John Wilson had been investigating Baroon Pocket since the early 1940s and recommended a dam similar to the one that was eventually constructed, but it was consistently opposed by Maroochy Shire’s Jack Mulholland. In the early 1950s, Mulholland persuaded Maroochy Shire chairman Dave Low, who was also the local State Member of Parliament, that Maroochy shire would be better off establishing its own water supply on the Maroochy River rather than combining with Landsborough for a joint scheme on Obi Obi Creek. Investigations found the whole scheme to be economically unviable and each shire went its own way. Maroochy Shire went on to implement the region’s first reticulated town water supply scheme in 1961. Wappa Dam was built on the upper

reaches of the Maroochy River south of Yandina, with a capacity of 4550 megalitres and the smaller diversion weir Poona Dam, opened at Image Flat. A system of trunk mains took the water to the townships of Nambour, Alexandra Headland, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba, Buderim, Bli Bli, Coolum, Eumundi, Palmwoods, Woombye and Yandina. Caloundra’s major water supply scheme started in 1964 after a weir was built on the Mooloolah River. It served 3000 people. Within a decade, water supply was again under pressure. Maroochy raised the level of Wappa in 1971 and Landsborough built Ewan Maddock Dam on Adlington Creek in 1975. It was reported in August 1978 that: “Although further development in the region and accompanying increases in population will undoubtedly occur in the future, considerable provision for further growth in demand has been designed into the present water supply systems which should ensure adequate supplies are available in the area up to the turn of the century.” But by 1980, both Maroochy and Landsborough shires realised they would be

running out of water within the decade and further investigations were commissioned. A wide range of alternatives was examined, including further storages on both the Mooloolah and Maroochy River systems. A Queensland Water Resources Commission report in April 1981, concluded that the optimum source for both shires was a joint scheme based on Obi Obi Creek at Baroon Pocket. As it turned out, the population exploded and three years later, in April 1985, a month after a new council was elected, Maroochy and Landsborough shires voted to proceed with construction of the Baroon Pocket Dam, on the same site first proposed some 40 years earlier, at a cost of $50 million. The dam officially opened on July 28, 1989, and, a success story from the start, has saved the central Sunshine Coast. The cost came in at less than $40 million, or $10 million under original estimate, and it was full to overflowing within five months. The Cooloolabin Dam, about one-quarter of its capacity was completed in 1979, and had overflowed for the first time only a week earlier than Baroon Pocket.

DID YOU KNOW? • Duporth Avenue, Maroochydore, was named by early landholder Thomas O’Connor whose mother, Janet, founded the exclusive Duporth Ladies School in Brisbane. She was born in 1827, in Cornwall, where there is a Duporth Beach, and was foundation principal of Brisbane Girls Grammar School, 1875-77. Duporth means “Two Coves” in the Cornish language. • “A seaside shelter shed capable of accommodating 150 persons was officially opened by Councillor J.T. Low (chairman of the Maroochy Shire Council) at Mooloolah Headlands on December 30, 1927. The shed, which has a large tank attached, was erected by the Mooloolaba Progress Association for the convenience of campers and picnickers. The view from the Mooloolah Headlands is a very pretty one.” a newspaper reported in January 1928. The 50th anniversary of the naming of the Sunshine Coast will be celebrated on August 1, 2017. In the lead-up to the occasion, My Weekly Preview will each week take a look into our region’s past. If you have any historical photos or stories email editorial@myweeklypreview.com.au.

BUSINESS & FINANCE

THINK YOU HAVE A DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO? THINK AGAIN…

Troy Derwin, Ord Minnett Buderim.

ll too often we see new clients with concentrated Australian share portfolios. It’s not uncommon for people to have six or seven shares in a portfolio, including three or four banks, Telstra, a Woolworths or Wesfarmers and maybe a mining or energy company. In our opinion, this is not an adequately diversified portfolio and it carries a level of risk that is inconsistent with most clients’ risk profiles. Generally speaking, we feel that a properly diversified portfolio would have a minimum of 15 to 20 investments, including Australian shares, listed property, fixed interest and international equities. The split between these asset classes will be driven by several factors including the client’s risk tolerance, stage of life, financial situation, etc. Often the pushback towards diversifying portfolios is that investors feel it will overly

complicate their affairs, especially around tax time, and furthermore it will be costly to implement. We can appreciate the concerns, however there are many options for investors to consider. Exchange traded funds or ETFs are simply investment funds that trade on a stock exchange. They are traded just like shares and can be held in a CHESS account. Essentially, buying one ETF can give exposure to as many as 500 different underlying investments, hence providing the benefits of diversification and the ease of trading just like shares. ETFs can be either passively managed (where the aim is to replicate the performance of an underlying index) or actively managed (aiming to outperform an index or may even be benchmark unaware). ETFs can be sector specific (e.g. healthcare, telecoms) or they may be geographically specific (Asia, Europe, US, etc). They are also available for many different asset classes such as shares, property, fixed interest, currency, etc. There are several different providers and literally hundreds of ETFs to choose from. A few examples that we highlight are: • iShares Global Healthcare ETF – exposure to global pharmaceutical, biotechnology and medical device companies. The biggest

holdings include Johnson & Johnson, Pfizer and Novartis, all global giants. • iShares Global 100 ETF – gives exposure to 100 of the biggest international companies in both developed and emerging markets. The fund owns shares in Apple, Microsoft, Exxon Mobil and Alphabet (owner of Google). • Vanguard Australian Property Securities Index Fund – seeks to track the performance of the Australian REIT index and owns REITs that invest in retail, office and industrial assets amongst others. Biggest holdings include Scentre Group, Westfield Corporation, Goodman Group and Stockland. Another path to simple diversification may involve the use of Listed Investment Companies (LICs) but that will be the subject of another article. The suitability of ETFs, LICs or other investments will depend on the individual investor and financial advice should be sought before buying.

SPEED UP CONNECTIONS Regional Development Australia Sunshine Coast is calling on telcos to provide accelerated and increased digital infrastructure within the region to ensure small businesses aren’t at a disadvantage. The call follows research into the impact slow internet connection has on business productivity and was conducted as part of the #SPEEDITUP campaign by Digital Sunshine Coast, a project hosted by the RDA, Sunshine Coast and Noosa councils. The research shows 86 per cent of businesses rely on the internet for their core operations, and 98 per cent want faster or more stable connection for business needs. RDCAS CEO Darrell Edwards says the NBN rollout is accelerating across the Coast and business owners should think of fast internet as an ‘efficiency enabler’. He says it’s important to consider how best to utilise increased speed in building business productivity and efficiency. For more information visit nbnco.com.au.

RAZZLE DAZZLE ‘EM Sex, murder, music… and all that jazz will captivate audiences as Chicago the Musical comes to the Coast. Courtney Underhill, who plays the prolific Roxie Hart, speaks to Roxanne McCarty-O’Kane about the show.

hen Courtney Underhill sets foot on a stage, her desire to embrace a character to tell a story to her audience and transport them to another time and place is overwhelming. It is a skill the 22-year-old has been honing for most of her life, discovering dance performance at the age of three. But when the Sunshine Coast resident took to the stage as Anita in Grace

Lutheran College’s performance of West Side Story, she knew she had found her professional calling. Now, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Dance from QUT and study at the Brisbane Academy of Musical Theatre under her belt, Underhill is gearing up to wow local audiences as she performs as Roxie Hart in Mad About Theatre’s production of Chicago The Musical alongside Meg Hickey as Velma Kelly. This sharp-edged satire, set in the roaring ‘20s, features a dazzling score that sparked the immortality of Bob Fosse. “Roxie Hart has always been a role on my bucket list, so when I heard I got the role I was absolutely ecstatic,” Underhill says. “I was in very good company in the call backs and when casting came out I almost didn’t believe it was true. Bob Fosse is one of my idols, so Chicago has always been one of my favourites. The music, costumes, choreography and storyline are so iconic and being in this show is such a privilege.” Far from just learning the lines and perfecting the iconic dance style of Chicago, Underhill says she has relished the opportunity to understand her

“complicated” character. “She has so many layers and in order to play the role properly, I had to take a lot of time to fully comprehend her. It has been a lot of fun to find the real person in Roxie, to understand what makes her tick and why she does what she does,” she says. “It has been very important for me as an actor to make sure Roxie is a relatable character. I really want audiences to fully get on board with her.” Although the lead character has so many amazing scenes, songs and dances, Underhill says she enjoys the much more subdued song Funny Honey. “A lot of the other songs I sing, I am thinking about being flipped upside down or making sure I have enough breath to dance and sing at the same time, which is different type of fun,” she says. “Funny Honey is just me the audience and the music and I find that really soothing.” Chicago the Musical is at The Events Centre, Caloundra on April 13, 14 and 15 at 7.30pm, with a matinee performance on April 15 at 2pm. Tickets are available at theventscentre.com.au.

READER’S CORNER Moonglow Author: Michael Chabon Publisher: HarperCollins RRP: $39.99 Reviewer: Gill Read Michael Chabon’s Moonglow is a read and a half. In a fictionalised biography of his grandfather, the writer presents both an historical and personal account of an extraordinary character. The prose is rich with vocabulary and references, and many times I found myself pausing to savour it, and to take in the depth of fact and detailed description. Not for the faint-hearted, there is an honesty in the biographical account which is at times brutal, intimate and explicit and at other times funny. The mystery around the writer’s grandmother, his grandfather’s war-time experience, intelligence, obsession with rockets and unique approach to what is happening around him are woven skilfully and imaginatively throughout the novel. An amazing read, it is easy to see why Chabon is a prize-winning author.

BEARFOOT’S TRIBUTE TO THE COAST

Phenix: Based in the Sunshine Coast hinterland, sisters Samantha, Amy and Jasmin

THE BLENDED FESTIVAL IS BACK A festival designed by young people for young people to celebrate National Youth Week is gearing up to take over Coolum’s Tickle Park. Hosted by IFYS Ltd, Blended Festival is a free event that includes a full line-up of popular bands and soloists performing on two stages, including The Unknowns, Jade Zaninni, Phenix, JBox, Hazel and Roanna Law. “There will also be food and market stalls, free skateboarding workshops, cultural and art workshops and activities,” says festival director Lauren Charman. Council’s Community Portfolio Councillor Jenny McKay says National Youth Week is the largest celebration of young people in Australia. “Thousands of young people aged 12 to 24 from across Australia get involved in National Youth Week activities and the council is proud to support the Blended Youth Culture, Art and Music Festival in our celebrations on the Coast,” McKay says. “This festival is very special as young local people have been involved from the very beginning in developing the fantastic program of entertainment and activities. “At the festival, I also encourage the community to visit the Sunshine Coast Libraries pop-up library with retro gaming and the Speak Up Engage Street team to complete the Youth Participation Survey.” The free Blended Festival is at Coolum’s Tickle Park from 2pm to 9pm on April 8.

YOUR BODY IS A WONDERLAND

Their latest single Sunbleached Girl picked up more than 250,000 Spotify streams and became a pre-party anthem for youngsters all over the globe. Now, Brisbane-based four-piece Shag Rock are continuing the momentum with the release of a new record, Barefoot, and new single, Road Trip. Barefoot was recorded with long-time supporter and ex-Powderfinger guitarist turned producer Ian Haug at Brisbane’s Airlock Studios. The band also enlisted the mixing skills of world renowned engineer Nick Di Dia from Rage Against The Machine to create a cohesive album that not only reflects their traditional indie/surf-rock sounds but introduces a deeper element of thought-provoking lyrics and unique musical intricacies. “Blood sweat and beers were poured into this album and we couldn’t be happier with the end product,” Alex Wilson says. “With 11 songs, we feel like we’ve finally zoned into a coherent band sound that translates through the album. It was designed to bring some tasty flavours and encapsulate the chilled surf rock vibe.” Shag Rock will bring their unique sound to the Sunshine Coast this weekend when they perform at the free Peregian Originals concert. Shag Rock will be at the Peregian Originals, at Kingfisher Drive, on April 9 from 1pm. Entry is free.

Experienced body and makeup artists will join graphic artists, visual artists, and street artists for the Australian Body Art Festival to showcase their talents on a very different canvas

– the human body. This year’s theme is Wonderland, providing a wealth of inspiration for competitors and a visual feast for spectators. Complementing the hugely popular body art competition is a Wearable Art Competition, with parades boasting funky fashions made from recycled treasures, and top class performers like The Cherry Ripes and Let’s Dance Latin-Samba, drumming workshops by The Off Beat and quirky art installations. There will also be a wonderful selection of market stalls with artistic offerings on sale and some delectable food stalls. The 2017 Australian Body Art Festival is on April 8 and 9 at Mill Place in Cooroy. For more information, visit australianbodyart.com.au.

Sunshine Coast six-piece reggae jam outfit Bearfoot catapulted themselves onto the radar of blues and roots fans at the 2015 Woodford Folk Festival and have rapidly increased their following since. Their latest offering, Could be Worse, represents a lighter side to the band and is resonating with Coast residents. Vocalist Asher Chapman says Could Be Worse is his anthem. “[It is] a tribute to sand, surf, and the Sunshine Coast. This is literally a day in the life of Bearfoot, and is a song about taking things as they come – the good and the bad, celebrating and moving forward,” he says. “Some days could be better, and some days could be worse.” Bearfoot will perform at the Sol Bar with special guests El Moth on April 9 from 8pm. Entry is free.

YOUNG ARTISTS SHINE IN CALOUNDRA EXHIBITION Driven by a keen interest in modern history, film, television, art, design and architecture, artist Sam Cranstoun has been a finalist in the Archibald Prize, had his work exhibited at the Milani Gallery and QAGOMA in Brisbane, and now features in a new exhibition, Close Enough: Young Queensland Artists. Cranstoun says Caloundra holds a special place in his heart. “Caloundra has been my family’s regular holiday spot for the past 30 years,” he says.

“Caloundra in particular has always struck me as creatively engaged, so it’s great to see a relevant and exciting institutional show being exhibited in such a beautiful and intimate space.” Sam’s work is showcased alongside three other talented Queensland artists – Dale Harding, Alice Lang and Tyza Stewart. The exhibition includes works in a variety of media including painting, drawing, sculpture and video and explores a range of issues from the personal to the political. Close Enough: Young Queensland Artists is at the Caloundra Regional Gallery until April 13.

PROPERTY

WHY COAST PROPERTY IS GOING GREAT GUNS Property experts share their views on the strength of the Sunshine Coast market in part two of a three-part series. WORDS: Roxanne McCarty-O’Kane.

he Sunshine Coast property market is thriving thanks to the region’s population growth, job creation, infrastructure projects and our enviable lifestyle. Here, Coast property experts with decades of experience talk to My Weekly Preview about the temperature of the property industry and what is driving enquiries from buyers and amazing sales results.

RESIDENTIAL: OFF THE RICHTER Next Property Group agent Craig Porter says the Sunshine Coast is continuing to grow in both population and reputation as a true lifestyle destination. “What we are experiencing here on the Coast right now is to be expected,” he says. “We are a market and destination that is maturing every day, yet we are still an infant when you consider our major cities and the demand on their housing markets. “As a person that has been involved in the property market for the past 20 years and the past 17 years as an agent, we see a very diverse range of people coming from literally all over the world to share our lifestyle. “The infrastructure boom that we are seeing on the Coast right now, with the $1.8-billion Sunshine Coast Public University Hospital, coupled with the $5-billion Caloundra South development, which by the way is the largest master-planned community ever undertaken in Australia under single ownership, are all contributing to our growth and prosperity in many areas.” Porter says this does not mean property prices will continue to rise at a rapid rate, but rather should insulate the region from the great price falls that are predicted in some areas of the country. “My advice to any would-be seller in our market right now is just do it,” he says. “When you sell in any market, whether good, bad or indifferent, you normally end up buying in that same market, hence one equals the other. “Just be sure you get good advice from your agent, and please make sure you market your property properly and by this I mean maximising the potential amount of sellers that will be attracted to your property. There can really be some significant differences in your result in the end, and you only get one chance, so please do it properly and you will yield the rewards.” Lifestyle is also a driving factor in hinterland property sales, according to Montville Real Estate agent Jenny Tatton. “[Buyers] are looking for rural-residential properties that

give them more space from the neighbours than they experience in more suburban areas,” she says. “As Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast have become more populated and busier, buyers are opting for a quieter more relaxed lifestyle that the range offers, yet still close to all of their familiar facilities. In the past year we have seen a resurgence of buyers looking for a country weekender or holiday home and buyers are seeking properties with views.” Tatton says a popular choice for buyers is something akin to 193–199 Western Avenue, in Montville. The 1910 two-bedroom timber cottage on 1.1 hectares with a northern aspect was listed at $599,000 and the property generated substantial interest and sold within six days of listing to a young local family for $590,000. Define Property Group principal and auctioneer Ross Cattle says he has seen changes and growth in the Mooloolaba market and surrounding suburbs that he never imagined seeing 20 years ago. “I have been saying for some time now that the Sunshine Coast is finally stepping out of the shadows of Brisbane and the Gold Coast in terms of job sustainability and opportunities, our young people to be able to find good jobs

“Our clearance rate is 99 per cent on beachside houses and time on market is very low...” Define Property Group’s Ross Cattle

when they leave school and the university is looking better than ever before, we are seeing good growth and I expect we will continue to see this well into the future,” he says. “I think the majority of growth will come from the Sydneysiders who are fed up with their vast lifestyle difference and looking for a better life in our very unique culture and lifestyle. We will see people move here from other parts of the country and the world, but working at the coal face, our New South Wales neighbours are the ones I see most of.” Cattle says the property market is strong and balanced and he anticipates steady growth for the foreseeable future. “The strongest suburbs are always going to be the same suburbs, the locations that are close to the beach, waterfront or acreage properties within a quick drive to the beach and good schools. Living in beachside suburbs offers people a unique lifestyle, I see so many people immerse themselves into the local scene of early morning starts on the beach, they catch up with new friends for a wake-up coffee before starting their day, living beachside gives more family time for fun and leaving the car alone. This lifestyle comes at a price and it’s going to continue to cost more to become a part of it as we grow,” he says. “An example of this is the owner-occupier rate rapidly changing in beachside suburbs that’s pushing investors and tenants further away from the beach, basically people are buying to live in and out-bidding investors. “Our clearance rate is 99 per cent on beachside houses

Sekisui House’s Yaroomba Beachside Estate is in demand and time on market is very low, with many properties selling before they even get out to the general public, that’s our Mooloolaba and Alexandra Headland markets.” In the premium residential markets, the past two years have seen the Sunshine Coast’s northern beaches suburbs such as Yaroomba Beachside Estate emerge as a sought-after residential destination, with buyers keen to become part of beachside living which boasts views of Mount Coolum. Sekisui House senior development manager Evan Aldridge says a report released late last year by Place Advisory indicated that vacant land along the northern beaches experienced a stunning 23 per cent price growth over the previous 12 months. “We all know that the Sunshine Coast is high on the national property radar and Yaroomba is holding its own due to easy access to the beach and convenient shopping options in the area,” Aldridge says. The report revealed that in the 12 months ending June 2016, a total of 92 vacant lots of land were sold with prices reaching a ten-year average high of $755,000. Solid growth has been achieved across the residential sector including nine per cent per annum growth in apartments while house prices grew by nearly eight per cent. Aldridge says enquiries for the first quarter of this year have continued to remain solid with second and third home owners particularly keen to relocate to Beachside Estate. “Much of the interest has indicated a strong preference to live closer to the beach and amongst nature, but we’re also hearing from buyers who want easier access to the soon to be expanded airport. However, the resale market for vacant land recorded some great results for buyers,” he says. One story involves a couple who decided to sell their 418-metres-squared lot within the Bella Mare precinct at Sekisui House’s Beachside Estate after receiving an offer of $535,000 for the lot they bought for $380,000 in August 2015.

DEVELOPMENT: IT’S ALL HAPPENING The Sunshine Coast is currently one of the strongest performing regions in Queensland, with projects like the new Sunshine Coast University Hospital, SunCentral Maroochydore and the airport expansion strengthening economic development and job growth in the area. AVID Property Group general manager Bruce Harper says this, and the proximity of amenities, like the University of the Sunshine Coast, the new Kawana healthcare precinct and shopping precincts at Sippy Downs and Kawana were huge deciding factors when they found the site at Palmview for the new community, Harmony. “Through previous experience, we have found that myweeklypreview.com.au

4/04/2017 1:45:01 PM

PROPERTY building a community around established amenities is critical to attracting future residents. This has proven to be consistent at Harmony, where we’ve seen record enquiries of more than 300 per month since our first land release in November 2016,” he says. “We have more than doubled sales targets, resulting in the need to fast-track future releases, with the second land release planned for April.” Harper says open space is a key driving factor for buyers, so more than 35 per cent of the Harmony site is dedicated to green open space and 90 per cent of residents will be within 250 metres of a park when the project is complete. “We’re also very proud that Harmony will be home to Queensland’s first grand linear park, spanning more than five hectares and running the length of 10 football fields. The park will feature a 60-kilometre network of pedestrian path and cycleways, and key activation areas to cater to a variety of social and recreational needs of our buyers.” In terms of product preferences, Harper says small land lots are becoming increasingly popular, driven by both price and lifestyle changes. “The increase in land prices has driven the demand for small affordable lots around $250,000 with 12-metre frontages. While families are still seeking large homes, there has been a move to more compact, functional outdoor spaces, as people make use of community spaces, like the grand linear park, for recreation.”

COMMERCIAL: OPPORTUNITIES ABOUND It’s not just lifestyle that appeals to Youi or other rapidly expanding brands, such as Jetts Fitness, that have chosen the Sunshine Coast for their global base. It is the fact that the Coast offers lower operating costs

Sunshine Cove has provided a unique mixed-use entrance into the future Maroochydore CBD Sunshine Cove Realty’s Penny Service that has seen continued strong demand for office space, while vacancy rates in Brisbane CBD are still hovering above 15 per cent. The future Maroochydore CBD is also attracting more interest in the region, particularly from business owners and those who want to relocate to the Coast to launch a startup. SunCentral CEO John Knaggs says the Coast is now widely recognised as a “growing economic powerhouse and property hotspot, and Australia’s business community is clearly backing the vision for the new Maroochydore CBD.” Sunshine Cove Realty’s Penny Service credits the transport link between the Sunshine Motorway and Maroochy Boulevard with “an immediate surge” in commercial development along that three-kilometre stretch. “A major part of Sunshine Cove was to provide the new

entry into the Maroochy CBD precinct,” she says. “This significant road corridor is designed to read as a green boulevard starting at the interchange with the Sunshine Motorway. The boulevard in turn became the focus for a range of showroom uses, all of which have been controlled by the Chardan Development Group to present a high standard of built form including luxury new car dealerships; an extensive Harvey Norman based homemaker centre, and office and retail uses adjoining the Sunshine Plaza Shopping Centre.” The Cove’s Flinders Precinct, currently under construction, is a dual use precinct of residential and boutique office and showroom properties. “As Sunshine Cove grows to deliver more of its mixed use components, levels of activity will continue to grow. With development of the CBD, the precinct will be visited more and more by a growing population. Thus it has been designed to become a very diverse, very active precinct that integrates well with the future form of Maroochydore,” Service says. Sunshine Cove has grown to a community of around 3000 residents across six finished precincts and the seventh, Claremont, will soon be released. “Within each residential precinct, character has been developed through detailed control of streetscapes, the placement of different types of housing to balance density with planting, and referencing views to key site features,” Service says.

SURF REPORT

with MWP’s man in the water

So the first man to urinate on the moon was Buzz Aldrin, shortly after stepping onto the lunar surface. How’s that for a random fact? Imagine if Neil Armstrong was not meant to be the first person to walk on the moon and, in fact, it was Buzz who had to stop for a wee. OK, who saw the heat between Pupo and Julian and the 25ft wave they copped on the head? Yikes. I must admit that I copped a 15ft one years ago and I am not going to lie to you, it isn’t fun. Of which here is another related fact – the record for holding one’s breath is 22 minutes and 22 seconds. That skill could come in handy. Although, I am sure Tom Sietas (Germany) was not getting rag-dolled in a 25ft wave. Interesting. Sad they are going to finish Margaret River in bad waves. They deserved better. Righto then, waves are around so chop, chop lollipop.

ESTUARY: Quality whiting are taking yabbies on the rising tide opposite the old Bli Bli oyster leases near Muller Park boat ramp. Flathead on lures; slow trolling the banks around the same area is producing quality catches. The recent rains have stimulated the mud crabs into feeding along with mangrove jack in Petrie and Eudlo Creeks. Tailor and trevally in the Maroochy bar area using pillies and poppers. SURF: Sand whiting and dart in the low tide gutters from Mudjimba to North Shore Maroochy with pippies and worms best. Tailor taken right on dark at Pincushion with WA pillies the best bait. Bream off the rocks at Alex Headland using fowl gut. OFFSHORE: When conditions allow, grassy sweetlip, footballer cod and Moses perch are being taken from the Gneerings and Coolum using squid and mullet fillet. Check out the Barwon banks for pearl perch, parrot and squire using pillies, but iodine bream are a problem. FRESHWATER: Somerset Dam is returning bass and golden perch on trolled deep divers and spinner baits cast beside timber near the power lines. Lake Baroon is good for bass and spangled perch around both boat ramps using floated baits and trolled deep diving lures. Borumba Dam has bass, saratoga and silver perch with flies, medium divers and plastics all working well.

ARIES [Mar 21-Apr 20]

TAURUS [Apr 21-May 21]

GEMINI [May 22-Jun 21]

The pace picks up as the sun and Uranus connect in Aries to turbo-charge your fiery energy. Plus Tuesday’s full moon also revs up your relationship zone. Activities with a fast tempo suit – from travel and sport to social media and entrepreneurial projects.

With communication planet Mercury now moving backwards through your sign, you’ll have to be careful how you give and receive information. If in doubt, don’t hesitate to double-check. Plus avoid starting major ventures or signing contracts until after May 3.

Tuesday’s full moon stimulates your friendship zones, so those around you can look forward to some surprises or manic moments from you and your merry band of mates. But keep in mind that Mercury (your power planet) is now in retrograde motion until May 3.

CANCER [Jun 22-Jul 23]

LEO [Jul 24-Aug 23]

VIRGO [Aug 24-Sep 23]

Looking after loved ones isn’t easy at the moment, as you struggle to juggle your personal and professional lives. Tuesday’s full moon falls in your home zone, so be on alert and realise that stress levels will be running high – and self-control running low.

With Uranus and the full moon firing up your tempestuous nature, you’re amped up and ready to perform as you to let your hair down and overdo just about everything! But don’t let overconfidence (and overexuberance) trip you up this week.

Boredom is a big no-no at the moment for active and vibrant Virgos, so make sure adventure and excitement feature in your plans. Under the influence of Tuesday’s full moon, an intimate relationship could veer off in an unexpected direction.

LIBRA [Sep 24-Oct 23]

SCORPIO [Oct 24-Nov 22]

SAGITTARIUS [Nov 23-Dec 21]

A close friend, business partner or professional rival could stun you by making a surprise move. So make sure you’re prepared with a few moves of your own! Is your love life on auto-pilot? Uranus encourages you to blast away the cobwebs.

Some stubborn Scorpios can too easily get stuck in a stultifying daily regime. This week it’s time to ricochet out of your usual routine and do something completely different. Variety is the spice of life, as you experiment with new activities.

This week’s full moon stars are fabulous for romance, friendships, hobbies, sport, entertainment, creative endeavours and group projects. With your sparky Sagittarian mojo and momentum running on high speed, you’re ready to rock and roll!

CAPRICORN [Dec 22-Jan 20]

AQUARIUS [Jan 21-Feb 19]

PISCES [Feb 20-Mar 20]

When it comes to your domestic life, a dash of disruption may be just what the doctor ordered. So it’s a good week to shake things up on the home front as you redesign, redecorate, renovate or entertain unexpected guests.

This week’s planetary aspects help you communicate your ideas with extra pizazz, as you connect with like-minded people via joint ventures with influential and/or international contacts. And make sure you leverage social media to get your message out.

Are you going on a holiday or business trip? With Mercury reversing through your travel zone, expect some chaos and confusion. So double-check your itinerary and make allowances for delays, cancellations and other last minute changes.

THE LAST WORD

TOTALLY GUTTED Richard O’Leary is so disturbed about the secret life of fish, he decides he can no longer justify eating them.

ell, fish is off the menu. I’ve been dreading this day, but I knew it would come sooner or later. For about two years now, I’ve been kidding myself about being a fishocrit – a vegetarian who eats fish. Deep down I knew I’d eventually have to get off that longline net fence and make a decision, I was just hoping it was no time soon. You see when I first put down the barbecue knife, it was because I’d backed myself into a corner. As regular readers would know I had this grand plan to grow my own livestock on our small acreage and then slaughter it to meet the family’s meat needs. The only problem was when push came to stab I realised I couldn’t actually kill the animals I had raised – and the logical progression (in my head at least) was that if I couldn’t take a life, I couldn’t expect someone else to do it for me.

At the time I excluded fish from that list of edible non grata with a claim I could kill a fish if I had to, despite there being clear evidence to the contrary (the Moon Fish incident of 2001). So for the past couple of years I’ve enjoyed plenty of fish, especially salmon, for which I have a particular fondness.

Could Scream’ for a couple of weeks, but eventually it drew me in, the irresistible bait dangling in front of me until I couldn’t help but take a bite. If you enjoy eating fish without guilt, it’s probably best to turn back a page or two and attempt the crossword and I’ll catch up with you next week. But for those made of sterner stuff, Singer reveals there is no humane slaughter requirement for fish killed at sea or in most places for farmed fish. Now that may be neither here nor there if I accepted the common belief that fish don’t feel pain, but unfortunately that escape route vanished faster than Nemo down the loo. The latest research shows fish can indeed feel pain and are much smarter than we give them credit for. So I’ve backed myself into a corner, which is not an easy thing to do in a fish bowl.

“The latest research shows fish can indeed feel pain…” All the while, I knew. I knew that each fish could be my last; living a double life was just too exhausting.
