Newcastle Weekly contents

thursday 19 January 2017

This week... From the editor Given the spate of drownings across NSW over the holiday period, news of a near-drowning at Hams Beach, just north of Caves Beach, last week, was quite distressing. Thankfully, the tourists who were involved in the incident were rescued, due to the efficiency of lifeguards, but it is a timely reminder to be as beach-safe as possible this summer. Lake Macquarie council’s chief beach lifeguard, Paul Stone, has urged beach-goers to take responsibility for their own beach safety. As we head into Australia Day – a day where people, especially in our region, flock to our picturesque beaches for a day of sun, sand and surf – taking a few steps, such as seeking out patrolled locations and, of course, swimming between the red and yellow flags, could prevent you or your loved ones from becoming another statistic. Turn to page 12 for the story. On a brighter note, and speaking of Australia Day, there’s certainly no shortage of things to do in our region to celebrate our nation’s birthday so, to that end, we’ve compiled an Australia Day guide to give you the lowdown on the family-friendly activities happening in your area. Make sure you turn to page 17 to find out more. Have a great week.

The desolate BHP steelworks site. Photo: Peter Stoop.

THEN Former BHP steelworker Aubrey Brooks at the old BHP site just before it closed in 1999.

BHP stalwart “disappointed” Aubrey Brooks is a man of steel – in every sense of the word. He and his brother, and their father and grandfather before them, served a combined 125 years at Newcastle’s BHP steelworks. The Brooks name was etched in

BHP history from the moment the manufacturing giant first appointed employees, to the moment the gates shut in 1999, signalling the end of an era for Newcastle. So, to hear of the Port of Newcastle’s proposal to stow a cargo-

holding facility on 12 hectares of the 90-hectare former BHP site, Aubrey said he was “extremely disappointed”. “I think it’s a trivial use [of the site]. “It’s great to see something going on there, but surely we can do better than that – Newcastle deserves better,” he added. The proposal, which is on public display until Tuesday 31 January, maps out plans for an open-air cargo storage facility, which would be used to store bulk items such as wind turbine components, large industrial and mining components, luxury boats, electrical transformers, farm machinery, construction

machinery and containerised cargo. Twenty-one staff will operate the facility, including truck drivers, forklift operators and security personnel. A Statement of Environmental Effects prepared on Port of Newcastle’s behalf – as the lessee of the site – states: “the project can be undertaken with very minor impact to the community or environment”. But Aubrey said he would rather see the site taken over by a manufacturing company to bring jobs to the region and boost the local economy. “Of course, it would have to be environmentally friendly, but we need more work for our young people. “We are entering a time of change, but, mate; I really hope that someone, somewhere can find a better use for that site than a storage area.” Go to majorprojects.planning. nsw.gov.au and search ‘Mayfield Cargo Facility’ to view and comment on the proposal. -Georgia Osland

Residents await fix The communities of Mount Hutton and Windale remain in a holding pattern over the unruly state of Scrubby Creek. At last mention, the NSW Land and Housing Corporation – a division of Family and Community Services (FACS), which manages the state government’s social housing land and assets – was awaiting “an assessment report [by

Lake Macquarie council] into the ongoing maintenance and upkeep of the creek” to meet with the council to discuss the matter. It is expected the report will be finished early this year, a FACS spokesperson said. Newcastle Weekly first reported last June that Scrubby Creek, which runs through Mount Hutton (behind Lake Macquarie Fair

shopping centre) and Windale, was severely degraded in sections; overrun with noxious weeds; and choked with rubbish, causing flooding. Since then, the council has partnered with Landcare and Charter Hall, as the owner of Lake Macquarie Fair, to undertake maintenance and bush regeneration works and remove shopping trolleys, bicycles and car tyres from the creek in an attempt to improve water flow. Since the council is only responsible for managing sections of the creek, it has been working with other public and private land owners, including the NSW Land and Housing Corporation, to address the issue. But members of the Mount Hutton Windale Residents Action Group say authorities are resting

on their laurels. The group wants to see an existing stretch of cement drainage behind Lake Macquarie Fair extended further along the creek to stabilise it, but the council says it is preparing vegetarian and stream stability assessments and considering the recommendations of a geomorphic assessment, first. Then, “works will be progressively implemented as funding and resources allow”, a council spokesperson said. Mount Hutton Windale Residents Action Group publicity officer Susan Foster said residents were “fed up”. “They’re ignoring everything we’re saying,” she said. “We keep getting really lame excuses as to why they haven’t started work, and we’re sick of it.” -Georgia Osland

Council backs start-up multicultural businesses Newcastle City Council will assist refugees and other members of the multicultural community kick-start small business initiatives. The Multicultural Small Business Program will see around 12 refugees and immigrants attend workshops over a 10-week program from February, to help them set up and run small businesses in Newcastle and the Hunter. Businesspeople interested in volunteering as mentors for the program should contact Jill Gaynor at Newcastle City Council on 4974 2222 or jgaynor@ncc.nsw.gov.au. Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes will officially launch the program on 16 February.

Novocastians certainly took advantage of Newcastle City Council’s free, holiday-season recycling offer, dropping off a mammoth 20 tonnes of household recyclables at the Summerhill Waste Management Centre, between 17 December and 8 January. “Almost five times as many Newcastle residents as last year took advantage of the offer to drop off recyclables for free, and not coincidentally, our waste management centre received five times more [rubbish] under this year’s scheme,” Lord Mayor Nuatali Nelmes said. “That waste could potentially have gone to landfill after being disposed of in ways other than the yellow council wheelie bins, so the importance of recycling is really striking a chord with our community.”

carried out by Lake Macquarie lifeguards this season. “We are doing all we can to keep people out of trouble, yet people still continue to unnecessarily put themselves at risk,” he said. Mr Stone added that, while council’s lifeguards were there to keep people safe, swimmers also needed to take responsibility for their own safety by seeking out patrolled locations, swimming between the red and yellow flags, and following safety signs.

A near-drowning at Hams Beach, last week, has prompted Lake Macquarie council’s chief beach lifeguard to remind swimmers to take care. Across the state, there have been more than 20 drownings since Christmas Day. A group of young tourists nearly added to those statistics when they swam in a dangerous area of Hams Beach, north of Caves Beach. Thanks to the quick action of the lifeguards on duty, they were brought to safety. Lake Macquarie council’s beach lifeguard team leader, Paul Stone, said beachgoers were putting themselves at risk by ignoring advice from lifeguards, with more than 50 rescues already

John Hunter Hospital Department of Surgery research nurse coordinator Rosemary Carroll, surGICure founder Krista Barrie, and surgeons Dr Peter Pockney and Dr Jon Gani.

Krista said. “But lots of other people aren’t as lucky and have to go through further treatment.” Krista decided she would reach out to a local charity to support people diagnosed with gastrointestinal cancers, but found no such charity existed in the Hunter, so she took matters into her own hands. What started as a few small but successful fundraisers quickly reached tipping point of needing to become a registered charity to continue. Thus, surGICure was born. With the help of a committee of five friends and family members - including her mum, Kim, as president - Krista, now 18, has organised shopping trips, trivia nights and balls to raise

Teen’s bid to help others How many 14-year-olds do you know who have started a charity? Well, four years ago, Mount Hutton teen Krista Barrie took on the challenge. Today, she has raised more than $18,000 to help fund research into gastrointestinal cancers by a team of surgeons at John Hunter Hospital.

Now in le t Newcas

Krista formally founded surGICure in 2014, a year after her nan, Agnes Orr, successfully underwent surgery to remove stomach cancer. Being quite close to her nan, this struck a chord with Krista. “We were lucky – our cancer story stopped at the surgery,”

money, with another masquerade ball coming up on 1 April at Newcastle’s Town Hall. All donations to the hospital are placed into a trust fund where grants and charitable contributions toward specialised studies are held. The money raised by surGICure is used to assist with funding for additional research staff. Colorectal surgeon Dr Peter Pockney, one of John Hunter Hospital’s resident surgeons, said the extra funding was critical. “We can’t do anything without support and we depend almost entirely on donations and charitable contributions of this sort,” he said. “We’re stuck without their help.” For more information about surGICure or the upcoming ball, search “surGICure” on Facebook. -Georgia Osland

The funniest pizza delivery guys in Oz will clash with the nation’s most lovable bogans when Fat Pizza V Housos hits the stage next week. Pauly Fenech, the brains behind both hit SBS TV shows, told Newcastle Weekly punters could expect a show full of organised chaos – much like the show’s namesakes. “This is going to be one of the wildest adult comedy nights you’ll ever see – there’ll be a whole lot of craziness on stage, funny videos, audience participation – the works. Honestly I reckon we’ll get about one-third of the crowd on stage for a bit of fun,” he said. There’s no denying that both

Fat Pizza and Housos and their denizens such as Davo Dinkim, Franky Falzoni, and Kev the Kiwi have struck a chord with Australian audiences. So, what is it about Fenech’s unique brand of humour that resonates so well? “It’s just honest Aussie humour – it’s not corny, it’s not pretentious, it’s just Aussie,” he said. “Also, there’s no sacred cows with us – we’ll slay anyone.” Catch Fat Pizza V Housos at Lizotte’s Lambton on Monday 23 January.

AUSTRALIA DAY FREE EVENTS & ACTIVITIES

While Tamworth normally conjures up thoughts of golden guitars and images of Akubras and Blundstones, psych/blues/ rock outfit The Urban Chiefs are definitely bucking that trend. Featuring the formidable talents of Blake Saban on guitars and vocals and Glendon Finlay on “drumcussion”, the Urban Chiefs have been changing people’s perceptions of what a band should look and sound like, since 2009.

The pair’s huge sound is due to Blake’s unique array of custom guitars, running through two guitar amps, a bass amp and an acoustic DI signal. Combine this with his powerhouse gravelly vocal stylings and Glendon’s tribal and, at times, frantic, percussive drum style and you have an Australian two-piece like no other. Catch the Urban Chiefs at the Stag and Hunter, Mayfield on Friday 27 January.

OK, so you’ve made your New Year’s resolution to get fitter and healthier in 2017, but where do you start? Often, the department we fall down in most is time. Being time-poor is a common complaint in the fast-moving, high-tech world we live in today, but exercising doesn’t necessarily mean dragging yourself to the gym each day. Physical activity can be worked into our day-to-day lives, through household chores, sports activities or the work commute.

Household chores? You might be on to something. We hate to say it, but ordinary old housework is a great way to burn calories. On the plus side, you’ll have a sparkling clean house by the time you’re done.

Make it a family affair. If you don’t want to compromise on family time, incorporate exercise into family activities, such as taking a bushwalk together. - Georgia Osland

PICK OF THE WEEK Mr Turner Friday, SBS, 8.40pm, M (2014) Timothy Spall (left) won the best actor award at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival for his portrayal of renowned British painter J.M.W. Turner in this biographical drama written and directed by Mike Leigh. The artist’s at times turbulent life saw him both adored and abhorred, his life a juxtaposition spent inhabiting brothels one moment and hobnobbing with the aristocracy the next, all the while producing some of England’s most iconic works of art. This is the tale of a talented but tormented soul.

Packaged up as a comedy-drama detective story, it sees Clooney as army lieutenant Frank Stokes, who is tasked by president Roosevelt to assemble a team of men to go into war zones to collect and protect European artworks, which the Nazis are stealing and destroying. The haphazard team of historians and art curators have no idea what they are in for. Solid, but slightly disappointing.

Tuesday, NBN, 8.40pm, M (2000) Tom Hanks (right) plays Chuck Noland, a Federal Express systems engineer who survives a plane crash and finds himself on a deserted island. Isolated from civilisation, he tries to live as normal a life as he can. While the film is not quite perfect (some elements are a bit rushed), the sheer brilliance of the 90-minute middle section (with no music, little dialogue and no cutaways to back home) compensates for this.

Alicia will be sparkling in 2017 and the insightful planets could bring a breakthrough or moments of clarity, so she needs to keep an open mind.

Uranus continues to work its

Chaos planet Uranus puts your career on a roller-coaster ride this year; the more systematically you work, the more stable life will be. Allow things to unfold rather than trying too hard to pin down how professional events will evolve. Observe and work with what produces results.

With Jupiter in your own sign this year, there will be an interest in travel and dealings with foreigners, possibly in connection with work. You will make new and useful contacts and could have unexpected opportunities at work. Money should become easier to find and doors will open for you.

Uranus continues to create the unexpected on the home front in 2017 and relations with family members could still be a bit fraught with from time to time. Things can improve for you if you’re prepared to forget about the past and focus on moving forwards.

LEO JUL 23- AUG 23

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

AQUARIUS JAN 21 - FEB 19

Your life is up for change in 2017 thanks to the solar eclipses in February and August. You may finally decide to pursue a long held dream or extricate yourself from a difficult situation. Relationships which end are meant to do so.

This year, it is time to think about what no longer works for you in your personal life and career and move on from it. Learning how to meditate and de-stress will bring you greater insights into yourself and other people, plus it will improve your health and intuition.

Change is likely all around you in 2017 owing to the two solar eclipses in February and August. The trick is to decide what you want to do differently and what you want to achieve this year. Clinging on to an old set of circumstances will only cause problems.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20

Even though you need to work hard this year, you can also play hard. Saturn is in your sign until the end of the year, indicating that you need to master yourself and your emotions; in other words, rise to the challenges and push through your fears.

You have powerful friends who are on your side and can make things happen. Ask them for your help if required. You could also burn a few friendships this year so mind how you go. You can be a bit of a control freak with your pals.

unexpected changes on the home and family fronts. Some of you will be relocating, renovating or starting a family of your own. Your family circle will be changing this year owing to births, marriages or separations.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21 It’s a big year for you professionally; you could get a new job that sees you become a real power player in your field. There could be heady heights of professional success. However, with a big job comes big responsibility. At home you have great stars this year.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 21 Being a Gemini, you have a wonderfully quick mind and wit, however for the past two years you have had nasty Saturn bearing down on you. To make the most out of 2017, it is worth training your brain to focus on the positive side of things.

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23 The Solar eclipse in February falls in your love zone and suggests it’s time to move on from an important relationship. If single, the eclipse may herald the start of a new loving partnership. If you're committed, it’s time to work on your partnership, allow it to change and grow.

Science is a range of collectable science kits with attitude, which encourage boys and girls to explore scientific concepts and skills. Get in touch with your alien innards with the Alien Autopsy Lab kit. Create brightly coloured gels and extrude bizarre semi-liquid body parts into the special alien body parts mould.

RRP $28, ages 8+.
