This week...

From the editor Level one water restrictions will take effect from 16 September in Newcastle, Lake Macquarie, Maitland, Dungog, Cessnock, Port Stephens and parts of Singleton.

Restrictions include: no outdoor watering without a trigger nozzle between 10am and 4pm; no hosing of hard surfaces such as concrete, paths and driveways; washing your vehicle on the grass using a trigger nozzle; and no sprinkler use.

The news comes as the Hunter experiences its lowest dam levels in more than two decades. You might have noticed an increase in Hunter Water campaigns, calling on the community to preserve the precious resource while the drought drags on. It's true – it's all up to us to make a collective difference.

To be proactive, extra ways you can save water around the home are: waiting until you have a full load to wash laundry and a full dishwasher to start a cycle; fi xing leaks and installing water efficient tapware; and watering your lawn for longer, but less often, encouraging deeper roots and drought tolerance.

If you see someone breaching level one water restrictions, you can report it online. Fines of $220 for individuals and $550 for businesses will apply after a three-month grace period. Go to hunterwater.com.au - Georgia Osland

news Pasminco deal unlocks development potential

The former Pasminco lead and zinc smelter site at Boolaroo.

The cloud over retail giants IKEA and Costco’s speculated expansion to Newcastle has lifted.

An acquisition deal will see the Hunter & Central Coast Development Corporation (HCCDC) take control of the former Pasminco lead and zinc smelter site at Boolaroo on the state government’s behalf, unlocking billions of dollars in commercial and residential development potential.

Ownership of the 92-hectare site will be

transferred from administrator Ferrier Hodgson to HCCDC, which will also assume responsibility for the ongoing maintenance of the containment cell established during remediation.

Lake Macquarie council chief executive Morven Cameron said this would fast-track the site’s redevelopment.

“The interest of the international large-format retailers has been put in doubt during the process, but with this change in ownership, we are now confident that progress can be made,” she said.

“We will work with all interested developers, the HCCDC and the local community to provide the best outcome.”

In addition to an estimated $1.8 billion economic benefit to the region and the creation of 837 full-time jobs post-construction, there is scope for 730 new homes.

“This is a fantastic result for Lake Macquarie that will see stalled opportunity removed and way too much gloom over the area lifted,” independent Lake Macquarie MP Greg Piper added.

“This deal puts [interested retailers] firmly back on the table.”

The news came after the council and the government worked at length with Ferrier Hodgson to develop a long-term environmental management plan for the site’s containment cell in the wake of the smelter’s closure in 2003, which left homes in Boolaroo, Speers Point and Argenton covered in lead and black slag.

In 2017, Summerhill tip opened its gates to affected residents for them to dispose of contaminated soil, while the following year the government committed $800,000 over four years to help manage lead contamination, including the establishment of a grant program to assist landowners.

However, Shortland MP Pat Conroy said the government must now commit to allocating all profits it made from redeveloping the site to helping residents further.

“It is unfair that the burden of remediation of privately-owned blocks of residential land, at a cost of up to $100,000, has fallen on individual property owners,” he said.

There is no known safe level of lead exposure.

A Gal’s Best Friends Two much-loved King Charles Spaniels were the key consideration when Carol started looking to downsize into an independent lifestyle community.

Recently retired from a long career in emergency services communications, the 64-year-old was living in Townsville and looking for a change of scenery.

“My three-bedroom villa has more than enough room for me. I keep the second bedroom for visitors and the third bedroom is great for storage. There is a fenced yard for the dogs and a ramp was put in so they come onto the raised patio for protection from the weather when I am not home.”

“The dogs are part of a package deal – if I was going to move they had to come too. Quite a few retirement villages don’t allow pets and some only permit one small animal that can’t be replaced when it passes away.

news Cyclists push boundaries in trans-America ride

Bruce Armstrong, Marshall Innes and Bob Dally in Mayfield after returning from the United States. Photo: Peter Stoop

Two Septuagenarians have pedalled thousands of kilometres across the United States.

Bruce Armstrong and Bob Dally, both aged in their early 70s, were joined by a third participant, 63-yearold Marshall Innes, as they embarked

on a 7,120-kilometre journey over 74 days, starting in Yorktown, Virginia, in the east and ending at Astoria, Oregon, in the west.

The trio are part of a Hunterbased social push bike group called Let’s GO, which undertakes morning

rides each week in the Greater Newcastle area.

Bob said he was inspired to complete the trans-America ride when he met fellow member, Bruce, and learned of his adventures.

“Bruce rode across Australia, from Perth to Sydney, when he was 60; I talked to him and thought ‘I’d like to do a ride like that,’” Bob said.

“So, in 2016, I rode up to Dungog and back and, the following year, I went to Victoria and rode from Melbourne to Sydney.

“We then started to plan this [American] one.”

Bob said the trio had to endure physical challenges, as well as tough weather conditions, but added companionship kept them going.

“We just took it one day at a time – we climbed about 56,000m in total, which Bruce worked out is like going to the top of [Mount] Everest seven

times,” he said.

“Each day, one of us was feeling sore or worn out, so it was a real team effort to complete it.”

Despite the challenges, Bob believed the group’s achievements had unwittingly encouraged others to undertake similar journeys.

“We didn’t realise until we got going, but we met a number of people who stopped us on the way across and said: ‘I’ve been planning something like that for 20 years’ and they promised to do it,” he said.

“They were inspired by it, just like I was inspired by Bruce.”

The Let’s GO social bike group rides on Sunday mornings, starting near Speers Point pool at 8am in winter and 7am in summer. It also completes Tuesday and Thursday rides from Mount Hutton ALDI at 7.30am.

MasterChef Australia 2019 contestant Steph de Sousa has some fun at the BBQ for Boobs fundraiser launch at The Station.

Host a barbie for boobs Everyone loves a barbie, and now there’s a way to support a worthy cause at the same time.

The Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation has launched a new workplace fundraising initiative called BBQ for Boobs.

The foundation, which supports Hunter people living with the disease, is asking businesses to host a barbecue to raise much-needed funds for its support programs.

Staff and colleagues are encouraged to donate the amount they would normally spend on lunch, to the foundation.

Participating businesses receive a ‘Super Booby BBQ Kit’, packed with all the essentials to host a barbecue, including a pink apron, chef’s hat, pink balloons, serviettes, a tea towel and a fundraising tin.

All they need to supply is the barbecue, snags, sauce and bread.

There’s even a chance to win a

new barbecue for the workplace when photos are shared on social media.

Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation president Lisa Bartley said community-led fundraisers were the lifeblood of the foundation.

“Our approach to supporting people with breast cancer is a very personal, community-oriented approach,” she said.

“And what is more communityoriented than a shared BBQ?” Each year, about 600 people are diagnosed with breast cancer in the Hunter Region.

The foundation aims to make their journey as comfortable as possible, from diagnosis onwards.

Some of its support initiatives include lawnmowing, cleaning and shopping services as well as wig hire and children’s scholarships.

Go to hbcf.org.au/bbq-for-boobs for more information.

Grants up for grabs The Mark Hughes Foundation sold 170,000, $25 beanies this year through its annual Beanies for Brain Cancer campaign.

Sales peaked most notably during the NRL Beanies for Brain Cancer Round last month.

Thanks to the community’s generous support, the Hunter Medical Research Institute is now conducting a nationwide call-out for research projects aimed at making a difference to patient outcomes.

Up to $2 million in funding has been allocated this round, with grants awarded for projects up to $200,000.

To find out more, visit hmri.org. au/mhf-brain-cancer-innovationproject-grants The foundation has raised more than $13 million since 2014.

Support for region’s dads When Jordan Hammond found out his partner was pregnant, the then 20-year-old felt scared and pressured by the thought of fatherhood.

“We didn’t know what to do – being so young, we were still

partying, and finding out she was pregnant woke us both up,” he said.

“We were both scared to tell our parents and I felt a lot of pressure being the dad and needing to find full-time work.”

Mr Hammond turned to Stayin’

on Track, a project that focuses on the experiences of young Aboriginal fathers in Moree, Tamworth and Newcastle, for support.

The initiative saw University of Newcastle Family Action Centre associate professor Richard Fletcher and his team work alongside the Young and Well Cooperative Research Centre, as well as Aboriginal communities, to develop a website.

A pivotal component of the project involved the participants sharing their stories, with filmed interviews available online for other fathers to access.

Stayin’ On Track is a spin-off of the SMS4dads program, in which users are sent text messages with tips, information and links to other services.

Mr Hammond said the programs had been beneficial as he transitioned into fatherhood.

“I found it a little bit tough being

so young and those messages and phone calls really helped a lot,” he said.

“I felt more relief when I spoke about what I was going through.”

While he struggled initially, the Rutherford resident is now the proud father of four girls – Jaylea, Kallie, Zarlia, and Layla-Rae. With the nation set to celebrate another Father’s Day this Sunday 1 September, Mr Hammond said becoming a dad had “grounded” him.

“I don’t know where I’d be if I wasn’t a dad – I was all over the place before,” he said.

“You definitely have your ups and downs during the day, but it’s just the love really.

“It doesn’t matter how down you are, your kids always find a way to make you smile and happy.”

Technology at the fore Advances in financial technology and Facebook and the importance of cyber security are among the topics that will be covered at an innovative conference in Newcastle next week.

The digital and technological collaboration, called NewTech 2019, is set to attract some of the industry’s sharpest minds to Novotel Newcastle Beach on Friday 6 September.

The conference has been supported by Newcastle council and endorsed by lord mayor Nuatali Nelmes.

“Digital and technology, whether we acknowledge it or not, shapes almost every iteration of our professional and personal lives.”

Keynote speakers will include the likes of OAS Technology Group owner and director, Craig Browning, who will touch on cyber security and how threats have changed over the last decade, as well as D-EDGE representative Duncan Waterman. He will address artificial intelligence, voice recognition, voice and augmented reality.

An after-dark cocktail event at Fort Scratchley will round out the day’s theme – ‘We live in the present, with an eye to the future, whilst celebrating the past.’

news Honor helps vulnerable Budding artist Honor Adams has painted portraits of celebrities like Simon Cowell and the Queen, but it’s her work on an unfamiliar subject that is having the biggest impact.

The eight-year-old Cardiff artist’s portrait of her family’s sponsored child, Pretty, caught the eye of Compassion Australia, who commissioned her art as the prize in a competition.

“Pretty is seven years old and lives in Indonesia,” Honor says.

“I painted Pretty because I thought she might like a painting of herself – she likes to do drawings just like me.”

Honor will donate half of her artist’s fee to Compassion to help more children living in poverty.

sport Northstars gear up for finals series

Newcastle Northstars general manager Garry Doré outside Hunter Ice Skating Stadium in the lead-up to the 2019 AIHL Finals. Photo: Peter Stoop

Newcastle Northstars general manager Garry Doré says the Australian Ice Hockey League’s decision to move this year’s finals to Lake Macquarie shows the sport’s popularity in the region.

The AIHL finals will be played at Hunter Ice Skating Stadium for the first time since 2012.

The league cited empty seats in 2018, plus Newcastle’s second-place standing on the ladder and strong

volunteer base, as key reasons behind ending a six-year stint in Melbourne.

The Northstars will vie for the coveted Goodall Cup against Canberra Brave, Perth Thunder and Sydney Bears on Saturday 31 August and Sunday 1 September.

Doré says he is excited about the chance to “give back” to the club’s volunteers, fans, and sponsors.

“It is responsible for the league to understand that we are a national league and the hockey should be spread all over the country,” he tells Newcastle Weekly.

“Melbourne does have a great ice rink, but so do we and it is suitable for the finals – we’ve had national championships here.

“It’s just great to be able to host the best four teams in the league playing their hearts out to win a championship.”

The first semi-final between the Brave and Bears will start at 3pm on Saturday, followed by the Northstars and Thunder at 7pm.

The two winners then face each other in the grand final on Sunday, with the puck to drop at 3:30pm.

Pop-up bars and food trucks will be available at the stadium before and in between games, while a live site is being set up at Warners at the Bay. “It’ll be great for the Warners Bay area – there’ll be people visiting the restaurants, hotels, and getting transferred into the city to check out our great beaches,” Doré adds.

“Newcastle, and the Hunter, is such a sporting-prominent region and we’re just so proud to be part of the sporting limelight in the area.”

Live streams will also be shown on the AIHL’s YouTube channel.

Pizza and pasta

taste

Step into spring with asparagus. Available from September to March, locally grown Australian asparagus is the perfect addition to your spring cooking.

RECIPES COURTESY AUSTRALIAN ASPARAGUS [ASPARAGUS.COM.AU]

Leah Itstines’ asparagus pizza with ham and cheese Serves 2 Prep: 15 mins Cook: 20 mins 2 pita breads, oiled 4 asparagus spears, peeled

Preheat oven to 180°C. On a small pan, heat over a medium to high heat.

Place oiled pita bread and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side to slightly crisp up. This isn’t a necessary step, but stops it becoming soggy in the oven.

2 Tbsp parmesan cheese

Add cooked pitas to a lined baking tray and evenly divide the mozzarella, parmesan, ham and asparagus spears.

4 slices ham off the bone, roughly torn

Add a small pinch of salt, pepper and chilli flakes to each pizza.

2 Tbsp balsamic glaze, to drizzle

Place into the oven for 15 minutes or until cooked to your liking. Drizzle balsamic glaze over each of the pizzas.

1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated

pinch salt pinch pepper pinch chilli flakes

Asparagus pesto grilled chicken pasta Serves 4 Prep: 5 mins Cook: 15 mins 2 bunches asparagus, trimmed ¼ cup basil leaves ¼ cup pine nuts or walnuts 1 clove garlic, crushed ¼ cup olive oil, plus 2 tsp extra ¼ cup grated parmesan cheese 1 Tbsp lemon juice 500g pasta spirals 400g chicken breast sea salt and cracked black pepper

Blanch one bunch of asparagus in boiling water for one minute until bright green. Immediately drain and refresh under cold water.

Place blanched asparagus, basil, nuts and garlic into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until ingredients are finely chopped. Add 1/4 cup olive oil and blend to combine. Add parmesan, lemon juice, and a good pinch of salt and pepper, and pulse once or twice to incorporate.

Prepare pasta according to packet directions. While pasta is cooking, drizzle chicken breast with one teaspoon of the oil and season with salt and pepper.

Cook on a preheated grill pan or barbeque for 3–5 minutes each side – depending on thickness – until cooked through.

Set chicken aside to rest.

Toss the second bunch of asparagus with remaining 1 teaspoon of oil and cook on a hot grill pan or barbeque for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Cut grilled asparagus into bite-sized lengths.

Drain pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of cooking water, and return pasta to the pan. Stir through asparagus pesto, adding a bit of the reserved water to create a sauce.

Serve pesto pasta topped with grilled chicken and asparagus.

The Next Step dancer and actress, Victoria Baldesarra.

Make this your Next Step If you have a tween daughter, chances are you’ve heard of The Next Step.

Victoria Baldesarra, who stars as Michelle in the Canadian dance drama series, says teenage girls aged 12 to 13 are one of the show’s biggest audiences, but that doesn’t stop children from as young as six or as old as 18 from enjoying the show and turning out to tours.

Returning to Australia next month, Baldesarra and nine others from The Next Step cast will kick things off at Newcastle’s Civic Theatre on Thursday 19 September.

The Next Step – Absolute Dance is a brandnew show that promises to be more interactive than ever before.

“We always get the crowd up to teach them a little dance – they love that,” Baldesarra tells Newcastle Weekly.

The 90-minute stage show features solos, duets, trios and group numbers choreographed to popular hit songs along with original music from the show.

This will be Baldesarra’s fourth trip to Australia – her second this year, after holding workshops in January.

“I’m super excited to be coming back to Australia, this time with a whole new cast,” Baldesarra adds.

The Canadian-born dancer has been plying her trade since she was three years old, dancing competitively since she was six; and is grateful the journey led her to acting.

“I’m so lucky to have made a career out of what I love,” she says.

Beat the Holiday rush!

FitzSimons headlines historical showpiece Acclaimed Australian author Peter FitzSimons will reveal the secrets behind his bestselling works to launch a packed program of events for this year’s Lake Mac Libraries History Illuminated.

FitzSimons, whose books have covered some of Australia’s most fascinating historical tales, will launch History Illuminated with a talk covering why he writes about history, his approach to selecting subjects, and how he researches his work.

The Friday 30 August evening at Lake Mac Centre For Performing Arts kicks off a week of more than 30 separate events and activities across the city.

“What’s wonderful this year is not just the number of events but their diversity,” Lake Macquarie

council’s manager of arts, culture and events, Jacqui Hemsley, said.

“They reflect the rich history of our city, the region and all of Australia.”

Local historian Ed Tonks will explore the history of the Fernleigh Track at a presentation on Saturday 31 August, before leading a bus tour of historical sites across eastern Lake Macquarie on Tuesday 3 September.

Tonks’ talk at Belmont Library on Thursday 5 September will cover the vital role of horses in the Hunter’s coal mines through the 19th and 20th centuries.

How-to: become an Insta-gran Thought Instagram influencing was only for 20-somethings?

Think again! Research commissioned by the Remarkables Group shows there are more than 700,000 over-45s on the social media platform, strutting their stuff.

Sarah Jane Adams (@saramaijewels) has 180,000 loyal Instagram followers. She recently used her profile to support Underworks’ #igiveasock campaign, in which the underwear manufacturer committed to donate up to 20,000 pairs of socks to those in need. Her post drew more than 5,500 ‘likes’.

This is just one example of the many ways businesses are using “Insta-grans” to reach the over-50s market.

Becoming an Insta-gran isn’t as difficult as you might think. The

Remarkables Group managing director, Natalie Giddings, says to focus on four key elements:

1. Express something unique about you. What makes social media, and Instagram in particular, so popular isn’t the platform itself, but the individuals who express themselves through it.

2. Choose a niche. People are looking to connect on social media and one of the easiest ways to do that is to use your passion to build a like-minded community. The key here is to be genuine.

3. Be consistent. Similar to how you tune into your favourite TV or radio show or catch up with a friend on the phone, people will want to hear from you regularly. A good rule of thumb for consistency is to post at least once a day.

Sarah Jane Adams graces the red carpet at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney.

4. Don’t think it’s too late.

A veteran in the blogging world, Nikki Parkinson from @stylingyou was already on the other side of 40 when she started her blog in 2008.

Her popularity has proved that savvy women of every age group want to be inspired and read handy trips and tricks, no matter the age of the storyteller.

the look

Face off

Matcha Mask

B5 Rose Hydra Serum

$29.95, 25g Stockists: simpleasthat.com.au

$39.95, 30ml houseofimmortelle.com.au

With only two ingredients (organic silica powder and organic matcha green tea powder), this mask didn’t sting my face like some others do; instead I could feel the anti-inflammatory properties of the matcha working their magic. If you get your ratios right (which, I didn’t, whoops), you should get five masks from this bottle.

This was my first time using a serum.

I expected it to be greasy, but it was far from it. My face felt smooth and supple. I occasionally get atopic dermatitis on my eyelids, but this product wasn’t a bother. An A+ delivery from this allergy-friendly, vegan Australian skincare range.

Hydrating Rose Facial Mist $18.98, 100ml houseofimmortelle.com.au Like a drink for your face! A spritz of this rose facial mist left my face feeling refreshed and eliminated tightness, which is super handy, since I work in an office where the airconditioner is always running.

Plus, it smelled like a bed of roses.

Will definitely put this on rotation.

Beauty editor Georgia Osland road-tests some of the latest facial skincare products to help you recuperate from the drying August winds.

Invisible Zinc Sheer Defence Tinted Moisturiser SPF50 $34, 50g Chemist Warehouse, Priceline Why use an ordinary moisturiser when you can use one with added SPF protection? Especially when it’s this lightweight, and tinted, too!

The trifecta. I felt confident leaving the house with nothing more on my face than this and some mascara.

Would use again.

SuperFruit Skin Enforcement Night Crème $115, 50ml beaute-pacifique.com/au A night cream – have I reached peak adult? I think so. This little beauty from Danish skincare line, Beauté Pacifique, left my face feeling hydrated and protected, though I would go easy if you have oily/ combination skin.

Bachie couple Snezana and Sam Wood know how to deliver a synchronised monochromatic look, with Snez’s jacket the perfect pop of colour to attend the VAMFF 2018 Gala Runway presented by David Jones in March 2018.

Our first ever Bachelorette, and now Home and Away star, Sam Frost keeps it sweet and simple in a floral dress and tan mules at the My Kitchen Rules 10th anniversary event in Sydney in January.

Australia’s second Bachelorette Georgia Love gives us race day chic in an all-black ensemble for Derby Day last year, accompanied by partner (and winner of her season of The Bachelorette) Lee Elliot in a superbly tailored suit.

The Bachelorette runner-up-turnedBachelor Matty Johnson steps out during Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in May last year wearing MJ Bale.

Australia’s OG Bachelor Tim Robards and his wife Anna Heinrich met on The Bachelor in 2013, and have been gracing us with their effortlessly cool style ever since. We love Tim’s colour palette of earthy tones and Anna’s tailored paints with a stripe for the Aje show at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in May.

Sweet dreams When it comes time to choosing a new bed for your child, many parents make the mistake of buying for the now and not for the future.

Selecting the right bed and mattress is key to ensuring they get the quality sleep they need for

brain function and growth.

Focus on Furniture interior stylist Melissa Gullifer shares some tips to help you choose the right bed:

1. Keep it simple Over-complicated styling is unnecessary as children grow

up so quickly and their tastes change as they transition through their childhood years. Don’t go out and buy your three-year-old daughter an expensive princess bed because in three to four years’ time, she will want something else. Be practical and think about a timeless bed option in a simple colour, or a timber bed frame or upholstered bed, which will give you the flexibility to add a variety of affordable quilt covers to update as your child grows into a new phase.

bedroom should be designed around the idea of a personal sanctuary; somewhere they can sleep, rest and play.

3. Test and rest Help your child create their dream bedroom and give them the full bed testing experience by shopping with them in store. They will love it. Test out suitable beds and mattresses and sit with them on the bed. Is it comfortable? Will it stand the test of time? Think about how many years you want your child to keep this bed.

2. Space Think about how much space you have in your child’s bedroom and consider their current height and growth in the future. Is there enough room for a king single, double, or queen bed or only a single? Also consider beds with built-in storage if you have limited with space. Can two bedsides fit in this space, or one? Will they need a desk or reading nook? Their

4. Budget Have your budget set and do your research. Good quality beds do not need to break the bank.

Decide on the important features your child needs, for example, single or double bed, two bedside tables or just one and don’t forget to add in a quality mattress. Stick to your budget and enjoy the process.

Teen oasis style Designing a teenager’s bedroom is no easy feat; by this age, they have developed their own sense of style and need a room that multitasks as a sleep, study and entertaining spaces.

Interior stylist Julia Green shows us how to create a room that ticks all the boxes: • Use the colours in an artwork as inspiration for your palette. And remember, statement bedding, or a rug, can act as artwork in a bedroom too.

• For a fashionable, tonal effect, use the main wall colour in a different strength on one, two or three other elements in the room, such as a desk chair, shelves or a bedside table.

• Give the bed an on-trend ‘undone’ look; layer it with a duvet, sheets

and pillow slips from different sets, and fi nish off with a medley of comfy cushions in a variety of colours and fabrics.

• Add a floor rug to anchor the scheme and provide softness underfoot. Dimensions are key: it should be big enough to connect with one or two pieces of furniture in the room, and not so small that it gets lost in the space.

• Include greenery. A beautiful trailing plant or two on the desk or shelves will bring nature into the room and freshen the air.

in the garden

Springtime gardening I am a little ahead of time as spring is still three days away, but I have been tempted by the increase in temperature.

Although many spring flowers are still waiting to bloom, keep the tissues and antihistamines handy if the many scents spoil spring for you.

I find, as beautiful as it is, one of spring’s showy climbers, Jasminum polyanthum, probably causes more allergies than others.

Once camellias and azaleas finish blooming, they may need pruning, and definitely fertilising.

If in a pot, apply a slow-release fertiliser with a neutral pH. Ground-grown plants need an acid-loving fertiliser.

Apply Flourish to annuals and spring bulbs to prolong flowering.

IN THE GARDEN JUDY SHARPE

Other plants, such as agapanthus, hydrangea, murraya, box, and golden duranta, will also respond to feeding at this time to encourage growth.

Gardenias can become a problem as they set bud; they require regular watering and fertilising with cow manure if ground grown. Yellowing leaves are a sign of stress from lack of water or lack of magnesium or iron.

Potted gardenias will need a daily drink, plus a weekly application of a foliar fertiliser.

Lawns should have been sprayed for weeds now before the grass begins growing – use an all-purpose product safe for use on an all grasses.

Friday, 9GEM, 8.30pm, M (2015)

Icelandic director Baltasar Kormákur (Contraband, 2 Guns) takes the reins for this big-budget disaster flick based on real-life events.

As the title would suggest, the film is set on the world’s tallest mountain where two teams of climbers – led by Jason Clarke and Jake Gyllenhaal (pictured) – try to survive the worsening conditions that confront them in one of the world’s most inhospitable places.

Friday

pick of the week True Grit Saturday, NBN, 9.50pm, M (2010)

Batman Begins Saturday, PRIME7, 9.10pm, M (2005)

This saga is not to be missed. Not only is Christian Bale (pictured) cinema’s definitive Caped Crusader, the intelligent approach of Christopher Nolan (director of Memento) ensures this is not simply an exercise in style.

Billionaire Bruce Wayne’s disgust with Gotham City’s corruption leads him to join an organisation in Bhutan. Trained in the art of combat, he returns to clean up the streets.

August 30

Jeff Bridges reunites with filmmakers Joel and Ethan Coen as he takes on the role of Rooster Cogburn in this gritty western. Drawing inspiration from Charles Portis’ original novel rather than the 1969 classic, the Coens return the focus to Mattie Ross (Hailee Steinfeld), a vengeful 14-year-old girl who enlists the help of the ageing lawman to track down her father’s killer (Josh Brolin). Matt Damon (pictured) saddles up alongside the pair as a Texas ranger also hunting down the murderer. The definitive adaptation of the novel that firmly stakes its place in the American Western hall of fame.

celebrity birthday SALMA HAYEK 2 September 1966 If ever there was a year for love, this is it.

Salma is under the influence of the planet of love, Venus, and it will dominate her life during the coming months. Venus has strong connections with the signs of Taurus and Libra, which regulate money, love and home – all areas that resonate strongly for Salma during the year ahead. She will find that her relationships and friendships in general are a lot more fulfilling.

Children and teenagers may require more of your attention at the moment.

Perhaps one of your offspring or a young relative is being bullied at school or is struggling with other issues. Alternatively, friends could be a source of comfort, but a loved one may be resentful of them.

Think twice before crossing any set

You need to think carefully about any kind of joint agreement, arrangement or business matter, and avoid being railroaded into anything that is against your own interests. A sudden and unexpected event could send you scurrying home from work in order to sort out a domestic crisis or vice versa.

Don’t be in a rush to splash out on

TAURUS 21 APR – 21 MAY While it’s always easier to ignore something that makes you uncomfortable, the only way to move past any tension is to confront the problem head-on like an adult. Don’t commit to a mistake, especially when it comes to your family, just because you spent a lot of time making it.

GEMINI 22 MAY – 21 JUNE In your close circle, believe only half of what you hear unless of course it comes direct via the horse’s mouth.

Problems are likely with the family car, public transport, electronics and technology. If you’re travelling somewhere, be certain to check your connections are all on time.

You’ll be best served by spending your time in quiet contemplation in order to ensure you don’t unleash relationship-ending anger on someone who won’t be able to forgive you no matter how remorseful you are later. There may also be a need to call your local handyman, plumber or electrician.

VIRGO 24 AUG – 23 SEPT

SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV – 21 DEC

If you don’t think you can control your frustrations this week, it might be best to stay under the covers and catch up on your favourite dramas on TV instead of acting them out! Your home might need some unexpected maintenance and possibly a visit from

You could experience a crisis of conscience at work as you’re finding it hard to go along with the attitudes or behaviour of others. If they insist on behaving spitefully to a third party, keep right out of the situation and do what you know to be right.

An overly critical attitude will not earn you any respect, so stop it! Remember, pride comes before a fall, so when tables turn, you’ll be the one eating humble pie. Your car might breakdown, public transport or flights could be delayed and technical equipment could malfunction.

anything too expensive this week.

If you are patient, you will find a better deal! Think through financial matters carefully. It is time to sit down and work out a sensible budget for the coming months.

AQUARIUS 21 JAN – 19 FEB Spend some time thinking about what you really want out of life. Pay attention to your feelings and try to sort them out rather than ignoring them. Now is the time to dig deep and do the hard work of resolving your emotions so you can lighten your karmic load.

PISCES 20 FEB – 20 MAR You seem to be on a particularly spiritual journey just now; perhaps you’re studying something such as astrology or reading topics that make you think of realms outside your usual experience of life. At work, trust your gut instincts and be wary of others trying to manipulate you.

My favourite things BUSH TOWNS I was born in Narrabri in north-western NSW and had a sort of Huckleberry Finn lifestyle as a kid, which included swimming in pristine creeks, catching crayfish, and raiding the local fruit orchards. I really enjoy random stays in old pubs in small country towns, discovering the area’s history, and having beers and yarns with the local characters. To me, the bush people are the real Australians.

JOKES There’s an old saying: “Laughter is the shortest distance between two people”. For some reason, I can remember hundreds of jokes.

There’s no better feeling than making people laugh. I can’t remain serious for long at all. The world should laugh a bit more.

BATTLEFIELDS If you stand on a battlefield, close your eyes and imagine around you the thunderous noise, clamour, and tragedy as it happened there way back when, then it is an exciting and emotional experience to be standing right on that spot where history unfolded. Culloden (Scotland), Little Bighorn (Montana), Hastings (Sussex) and the Somme (France) are all special places I’ve visited, and each has an eerie atmosphere.

Lindsay Young RADIO COMMENTATOR AND POET

After Lindsay Young retired from rugby league, he turned his attention towards commentary on Newcastle-based radio station 2HD. In 1986, Lindsay wrote a short piece of verse and read it on air. The piece – a compressed recount of what happened in the week of sport – was well received and he has done it ever since. More than 30 years and over 1,500 poems later, you can still hear Lindsay’s take on 2HD – Newcastle’s 1143AM – each Friday at about 3.45pm.

The 65-year-old, who started his career at NBN TV as a cameraman, eventually moved on to media advertising with the mainstream press and radio. Lindsay has also worked in corporate marketing, the hospitality industry, and been a master of ceremonies (MC) at many sporting luncheons and functions. He has four adult children and seven grandkids.

FAMILY I thrive on the love, loyalty and support of the extended Young clan.

LETTER FROM MUHAMMAD ALI I knew he liked poems, so I sent him a fourpage verse on his career in 1989 after he’d been diagnosed with Parkinson’s. He signed each page to show he had read it and returned it along with a letter of thanks in his own handwriting. He finished with a flurry of kisses and a poignant “P.S. Service to others is the rent I pay for my room in the hereafter.” It shows the personal sincerity of the greatest boxer in history and civil rights advocate, who achieved so much for his race.
