In that brief time the council elected a deputy mayor (former mayor Bob Abbot); restricted the use of Teewah airstrip; forecast a budget surplus with no rate rise, bringing services back to pre-amalga-

council meeting as exciting.

But, by all accounts, that’s exactly what the inaugural meeting of the new Noosa Council was!

The public gallery – soon to be enlarged – was overflowing out the doors and there was much cheering over key decisions.

Councillors, locals and even the media were seen to be happy and smiling!

Hang on, this is new!

I think it’s a sign of things to come, and a delightful follow-up to the party-like atmosphere of that morning’s official launch event in Cooroy.

Cooroy Memorial Hall was packed to the rafters as our new mayor and his merry band of six signed up as our leaders for the next two years.

There were tears and cheers, laughter and a whole lot of love in that hall.

Children scampered back and forth, scones and cream were devoured and there were as many hugs as there were Free Noosa T-shirts.

Mayor Playford promised he and his team would do everything

Decisions are being made, no time is being wasted. in their power to live up to our expectations and you know what? I think they will.

He also asked us not to give up on them if they get something wrong, saying “I am sure the Noosa community will let us know”.

I think they will, Noel, but not with the anger and frustration that

was often vented on the regional council.

Already our mayor and councillors are proving they mean business. Decisions are being made, no time is being wasted.

Their wish to be open and transparent is real – so much so that the current council chamber

in Tewantin is being gutted to make more room for the public.

It’s not just “company” cars that our councillors are shunning – they are also swapping their stately seating for an ordinary table and chairs.

Those who were against de-amalgamation may scoff and say it won’t last but I, for one, think it will.

This is what the future looks like in our newly-liberated Noosa Shire.

New life for Peregian Originals

Noosa beach is best!

A community-driven initiative to reduce crowding will see the Peregian Originals kept at once a month and held on a separate weekend to Peregian Beach Markets.

NOOSA –

better than all the rest!

Sheep Thrills

“We’ve really seen the return of Noosa’s mojo.”

Professional lifeguards monitor beach visitor numbers over weekends across most of the state, generating a top 10 list of the most popular beaches. The Sunshine Coast has taken out three of the top four, with Noosa Heads in pole position, Maroochydore in second and Kings Beach, Caloundra, fourth.

Noosa Shire Councillor Sandy Bolton said she didn’t need statistics to verify Noosa Heads is the best beach.

icant gains from key high-spending international markets such as the UK, Germany and the USA, and an overall visitor spending increase of eight per cent to $911.4 million for the quarter.

Mr Massingham said while the news from Surf Life Saving Queensland, which covered the period up to the start of December, was very positive, there had been further encouraging news in the weeks since then.

“Some of our operators have reported they’ve had the best Christmas and New Year periods in 10 years, which is great news,” he said.

“Holiday bookings are strong right through to the Australia Day long weekend and I’d suggest anyone who wants to book a holiday in Noosa for the rest of the school holidays should get in now.”

Tourism Noosa general manager Damien Massingham said the latest accolade is the cream on top following numerous national awards for the region and individual operators, including Noosa being named the Best Australian Summer Holiday Destination at Australian Traveller’s 2013 Readers’ Choice Awards just before Christmas.

“We’ve really seen the return of Noosa’s mojo and visitors from around Australia and overseas are now enjoying the revitalised restaurants, upgraded accommodation facilities and new tours and events throughout the region,” Mr Massingham said.

The latest figures from Tourism Research Australia show the number of visitors to the Noosa region in the September quarter increased 15 per cent from the previous year.

The free community concert in Peregian’s beachside park will be held on the second Sunday of the month at the same 1pm to 5pm time slot. It will no longer follow the markets on either the first or third Sundays.

The change aims to reduce crowding on Peregian’s beachside roads and park, especially during changeover period when the market and Originals’ crowds converge as the stalls dismantle and the bands set up.

East Coast Originals president Steve James said the move was part of the new focus on “quality, not quantity”.

“We floated the idea with all the resident, business, sporting and community group stakeholders, including the Peregian Market and the Surf Club,” Mr James said.

“In true community spirit, a decision was made to support the move. It’s all been very positive and productive. The new council and its representatives have been very supportive.”

Cr Frank Wilkie said the council-backed initiative was part of a wider push to empower communities and re-invigorate live music across the re-born shire.

“I’d like to think that communities across this shire will get the support for well-thought out, consultative solutions to issues affecting them,” he said.

“Noosa has great depth of creative talent that deserves to be fostered and showcased across the shire. Why can’t Noosa become renowned as much for its musical talent, as its other natural assets?”

The first event at the new date will be held this Sunday, January 12.

Organisers are encouraging visitors to park in Rufous Street, near Di Hurst oval on the western side of David Low Way and to spend the day “enjoying Peregian”.

“Peregian on a Sunday is about so much more than just the Originals,” Mr James said.

Parking signs on the western side of Plover Street and Kingfisher Drive will be changed to restrict parking on Sundays from 6am-6pm, except for permit holders (residents).

Cr Wilkie said the simpler parking limits were intended to avoid “signage insanity”.

Noosa Police trial Segways JOLENE OGLE Hastings Street is about to get an eco-friendly boost with the addition of two new Segways to the Police Beat patrol team.

The electric, two-wheel transport system is designed to reduce environmental damage as well as allow Police to patrol for longer with less fatigue.

The vehicles can go indoors, outdoors and over varied and uneven terrain meaning Police are able to efficiently patrol larger areas three times faster than on foot.

OIC Senior Sergeant Steve McReight said the Segways were part of a plan to look at new ways of policing and will be used on a three-month trial to see how effective they are in patrolling Noosa Heads.

The new additions to the patrol team will be launched today at 10.30am with the help of Noosa MP Glen Elmes, Noosa Shire Mayor Noel Playford and Queensland Police Commissioner Ian Stewart.

Following the launch of the Segways, Hastings Street Police Beat will also receive the keys to their new ATV, donated

by Noosa icon, Hey Bill.

Fully decked out with Police stickers and accessories, the ATV will help with beach patrols and ensuring holiday-makers and locals are safe when enjoying the best beach in Queensland.

NOOSA TODAY

Noosa - an art sales powerhouse NOOSA – THE WAY AHEAD GREG REDDAWAY

I will be a very easy target for those who want to ‘have a go’ as I am a philistine of the highest order when it comes to the arts. I love classical music, but beyond this I would much rather go to the Gabba and watch the Lions!

That said, I recognise the value of an active arts community in the wider community and the following quote is from a report entitled Economic Impact of the Victorian Arts and Cultural Sector by KPMG – 2013.

“It is recognised that this sector also contributes in other qualitative ways that are not captured in conventional economic statistics. For example, other benefits include contributing to a city’s liveability, and helping to foster knowledge and skills transfers as well as contributing to education outcomes, tourism, destination branding, international image, etc.”

So for the purposes of my commentary, let’s agree all of what KPMG says applies to Noosa. I am less interested in these aspects than the sectors capacity to gainfully employ people and be an economic generator.

I am told we have a good number of excellent artists in Noosa,

Art is everywhere in Noosa – including the Floating Land festival.

Launched in 2001 as an outdoor sculpture exhibition, it has since firmly established itself as one of Australia’s leading ‘green art’ events ranging across all the disciplines, and some who can ‘mix it up’. I believe the way to strengthen and grow this part of the community is to give it great sales outlets, great salespeople and great online sales presence.

We need to create some big spaces, which will showcase a revolving group of local and ‘visiting’ artists. Hopefully, most will be local, but with regular national and international artists contributing. All the while these artists will be attracting people to watch them producing their art, and buying it.

The operation needs to be commercial. That is, it needs to sell lots of art. It should do this from the ‘space’ but also online with all of the modern communication tools.

It must pay its own way in terms of the space and other overheads, and

in terms of giving a ‘fair’ return to contributing artists.

It will need someone entrepreneurial to head it up who has an edgy business background. This ‘chief art salesperson’ should be remunerated part by salary but mostly by bonuses for the amount of art he or she manages to sell on behalf on local artists.

LOCATIONS The existing art gallery, below council in Tewantin.

Picture the current gallery, but where it completely opens to the outdoor riverbank area via massive glass doors which retract. The outdoors is suddenly indoors and vice versa.

The outdoor area becomes part of the art space with some permanent installations such as sculptures and some other pieces which are

moved in and out as appropriate.

This is potentially one of the best regional art spaces in Australia. The transformation should be designed by leading architects to ensure a quality result.

This area is, of course, a gentle stroll from the Noosa Harbour, which is the final stop for the Noosa Ferry, thus providing easy access for thousands of visitors.

The location is obviously a fantastic venue for a restaurant and café as well, which can be tendered for lease to good local operators, thus producing more jobs and income.

It would also be a great boutique classical music and ‘art house’ movie venue.

OTHER LOCATIONS Recognising the excellent job the Butter Factory in Cooroy already does, it will come under the umbrella of the chief art salesperson and should sharpen its focus to more sales.

Beyond these locations, there is potential for another space in Noosa Junction - maybe an annexe of The J, but always with a commercial bias.

In conclusion, I want to reiterate, the objective of this is to generate income and jobs. It may also add value to Noosa in all sorts of ways which are beyond the understanding of the aforementioned philistine, but the case I am arguing is to commercialise art created in Noosa so that the artists derive fair income for their work, which will flow through the community.

Deputy Bob’s back and “it’s fabulous” JIM FAGAN On March 3, 2008, the then Noosa Mayor Bob Abbot pushed back his chair at the council table, knowing it was the last time he and his fellow councillors would meet.

He admits a “multitude of things went through my head at the time. I knew there was going to be a challenge to amalgamation but I wasn’t sure, after statements on both sides of Parliament, that it would happen.

“But things change.

We’re back and it’s fabulous. I’m really keen to be part of it.”

It has taken nearly six years but last Thursday Bob eased in his chair and took his place as one of six new councillors who, along with Mayor Noel Playford, were present at the inaugural meeting of the new Noosa Council.

On the agenda was the

election of deputy mayor and Bob’s wealth of local experience helped him to get the nod over two other candidates, Crs Tony Wellington and Frank Wilkie.

“I’ll do two years to

make sure that those things we worked so hard to get years ago will now happen. I would like to create a whole new model for local Government and with Noel in the chair, and with the councillors we’ve got,

there’s a real chance of doing that.

“I’ve a long history with the people of Noosa.

I’ll do what I can to make sure the things we do in the next two years are beneficial.”

in brief ON THE FOOTPATH This popular literary get-together on the footpath at Annie’s Books on Peregian kicks off for 2014 with Frances Whiting on Tuesday, January 14, at 6pm.

The well known Coast columnist is launching her debut novel, Walking on Trampolines, and with wine, cheese and good company, you can be sure of a great evening.

The book’s heroines, Tallulah de Longland and Annabelle Andrews share a deep but unlikely friendship for years until something happens that shatters it all.

But, as Frances says, it’s not how far you fall, it’s how high you bounce!

Legendary surf journalist, author and Noosa Today columnist Phil Jarratt will also take to the footpath on Thursday, January 23, at 6pm, to present his new book, That Summer at Boomerang.

You can be assured of an entertaining and informative evening as Phil chats about the Australian visit of Hawaiian Duke Kahanamoku, which arguably launched the surfing phenomenon in Australia.

MORE SERVICES. BUDGET SURPLUS: Mr Playford said the budget would increase service levels “to what we used to enjoy in 2008.

Kerbside bulk rubbish is to be brought back, more street sweeping and road maintenance, no rate rise and an increase in infrastructure spending.

“We’ve incorporated a modest increase in our capital works program that’s really to try to maintain our assets and it’s still not enough.

“Although it is higher than the regional council had planned, it’s nowhere as much as it needs to be. Over the next six months we have to look at the budget and maintain our infrastructure. It hasn’t been maintained for the last six years and we keep going backwards. There won’t be any fat left in the system when we’re finished with it.

“Operationally the budget provides for a very small surplus. We would like to achieve a significant surplus because that money we can put aside as a reserve. Do that for a few years and that gives you the capacity to provide new infrastructure for the community.”

DEVELOPERS’ SUBSIDY: Extra discounts for developers brought in earlier this year by Sunshine Coast

Council have been removed. The discounts were introduced to kick start construction projects which, although approved, had not been started.

Mr Playford said there was no evidence the scheme was successful in bringing approved projects forward or creating jobs. In Noosa there are five applications involving subsidies of $172,000.

NEW CEO: About 40 applications, including Acting CEO Peter Franks, have been received for the position of council CEO. There is now a short list

and interviews will be conducted on January 9, Mr Playford said. “We will go through the process of choosing a CEO. Currently, we have acting directors in various roles and, after we appoint a permanent CEO, we will advertise these roles as well. We will end up with the inter-organisational structure of three directorates. The 2008 Noosa council had five directorates.”

COUNCIL CARS: When council staff were transferred to Noosa, more than 100 cars came with them, almost

all of them leased. Mr Playford said lease charges were about $10,000 per vehicle. “There’s no room for anything in this Council for that number of cars to perform business and services to the community so instructions have been given to our finance people and our initial push will be to cut that number in half.

“There won’t be a Mayoral car for the first time in about 30 years. As of today no councillors will have cars.

We believe we cannot expect staff to accept and understand the car situation if we don’t set the example.”

After the meeting Cr Wilkie told Noosa Today it was “very gratifying that the key pillars of the budget - no rates rises, restoration of services to pre-amalgamation levels, increased spending on assets, kerbside recycling and a surplus - had been brought down to keep faith with Noosa values and community expectations which are high.”

Asked why assets were allowed to depreciate so much, he said, “We had no control over that and that is one the reasons it is so great to have the council back. Take the decision about the Teewah helicopter strip.

With one stroke of the pen, the previous decision has been reversed and the amenities of the residents protected.

“What’s happened before is in the past. The important thing now is that we can start to make improvements from now in.”

Federal funding for Noosa? 35%

OFF

Deputy Prime Minister Warren Truss has given a few pointers to Mayor Noel Playford on ways to attract Federal Government funding for Noosa infrastructure projects.

At the swearing-in ceremony he told Noosa Today, “This is a very historic day for the people of Noosa. It is the end of a long community battle to win the right to make decisions locally and what gets this council off to a great start is the fact that the early plebiscite, the referendum, all were carried by an overwhelming majority.

“There is no question that what’s happening today is what the local community wants and they are determined to try and to do everything they can to make this new council work and work well.”

Mr Truss said local government needed to be about being local. “When you support mega councils, you are actually walking away from the fundamental tradition of the reasons for local government to exist.

“I am pleased to see the community’s overwhelming desire and determination has come to fruition. Noosa Council is well placed for success.”

“It could get worse - you never can tell.”

Reporting to Noosa Council last Thursday, Mr Playford said he had welcomed Mr Truss at the council swearing-in ceremony earlier in the day at Cooroy.

“I suggested we would have some shovel-ready projects when the Federal Government wanted to kick start infrastructure spending because of what’s happening in the economy. It could get worse - you never can tell - and he gave me a few hints.”

There’s no doubt Noosa has a friend in Mr Truss, who is Federal Member for Wide Bay and Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development.

NOOSA TODAY

spotlight on Tewantin Charm and history There is something quite magical about the riverside town of Tewantin. Located just 10km west of Noosa Heads, Tewantin is a bustling business centre and the proud home of the new Noosa Shire Council.

The many beautifully landscaped parks and streets, lined with large Poinciana trees, make Tewantin a beautiful place for a family holiday or a relaxing day out.

In the 1860s, European settlers arrived in the area originally inhabited by the Gubbi Gubbi/Kabi Kabi people.

Tewantin soon began to grow with the movement of people and goods between Brisbane and Gympie with most historical buildings, such as the police station and Royal Mail Hotel, dating back to the early 1880s.

Traveller numbers fell when the railway opened in 1981, but by then holiday-makers had discovered Tewantin’s appeal.

The building served as both a cobbler’s store and a guest house until it was donated to the town in 2001 and moved to its current location.

The building is now an information centre and is manned by skilled and knowledgeable locals who offer a one-stop-shop for travel information.

Tewantin also holds a deep connection with current and ex-servicemen.

Tewantin Noosa RSL dominates Memorial Avenue and a large monument serves as a

Today, Tewantin still holds all the charm of a small settlement, despite its bustling centre.

The existence of iconic buildings such as the information centre, located on Poinciana Avenue, is a reminder of the town’s humble beginnings.

The one-room miners hut was transported from the Gympie goldfields by bullock dray in 1921, to sit where the Tewantin Noosa RSL carpark is now.

reminder of the men and women who have served this country.

Further down the road, Noosa Marina offers unique dining experiences and is the terminal for the ferry; a great way to explore the beautiful Noosa River.

NOOSA TODAY

Kylie Harris and Colleen Porter, both are admin officers in the council executive office.

Everything old is new again

Council staff buzzing with excitement JIM FAGAN There’s a buzz around the Noosa Council offices at 9 Pelican Street, Tewantin, right now. Noosa is once again looking after its own affairs and the bursting enthusiasm of the council staff just can’t be contained. They can’t wait to get on with the job.

Perhaps long-time employee Kylie Harris summed it up best when she told Noosa Today at the swearing-in ceremony of the new councillors at Cooroy last Thursday, “We are excited about our potential to create something new. We have some new faces and some old faces back again. We’re starting afresh and we’re determined to make it all work.”

Kylie has been with the council for 14 years, starting as a trainee when she finished school.

She was personal assistant to Bob Abbot and CEO Bruce Davidson and when the Sunshine Coast Council was formed she transferred to Nambour. She is now back here as admin officer in the council executive office.

She works alongside Colleen Porter and Cathy Rees. Colleen was with Maroochydore Shire Council for 11 years and, after amalgamation, was one of the first Sunshine Coast Council employees to be transferred to Noosa office.

“I live at Cooroy so when the offer was made to come here I quickly put my hand up.

“It’s fantastic. I’m very lucky to be working with some great people. We’ve a big job ahead of us but everyone is excited to be part of this process.”

Cathie Rees started in 2007 and was personal assistant to former councillor Russell Green. “I’m pretty happy about coming back and getting ownership of the council again. It’s been pretty hectic in the last few months for the transfer team. I’ve only come on board in the last month. The three of us will be organising meetings, agendas, minuting the meetings. It’s

all new and we’re sorting out what our roles will be.”

Phil Amson leads the new Local Laws team for the council. “We police parking, look after dog related issues, tree clearing or any offences that occur on public land. I started with Noosa Council back in 2006 and in 2008 went to Sunshine Coast Council at Caloundra as one of the co-ordinators of what was known as the response services team. It was, in effect, the local laws team for the whole of the Sunshine Coast.

Phil commuted to Caloundra every day from Doonan and says it is “fantastic to be back in town. I was lucky enough to come back to Tewantin 12 months ago through a reshuffle in the Sunshine Coast Council. It was a real shot in the arm once we knew de-amalgamation was in progress. It certainly was a real boost for everyone.

“We had a good team at Caloundra and we had a few teething problems. There’s no doubt we will experience the same again here. It was a big organisation but just lacked the community feel that we have in Noosa.

Paul Davidson is also with Local Laws and prepares prosecution brief for the courts. He’s happy to be back in Noosa, having started work with the council in 1993.“Noel Playford was mayor back in those days. It’s great seeing Noel back. He was a very competent mayor and I’m sure he is going to carry on in the same tradition.”

And last word to Acting CEO, Peter Franks: “I’ve actually had so much help to get to where we are today. Without the staff commitment, we would not achieved what we have done. There is a great excitement and I see the council going from strength to strength based on the staff we have.”

“Part of the value statement I’ve put out says everybody who started today came from the Sunshine Coast Council but where you came from originally doesn’t matter. We are now working as a team.”

Surf Pic Comp

Congratulations to Simon Sheppard, winner of the Noosa Today Surf Pic Comp.

Simon took this great shot with a Canon EOS 450D and said he’d love to win, “as my wife and daughter would love the surf lesson prize”.

Simon wins a two-hour, all-inclusive Learn to Surf lesson for two people, plus a $50 beach hire voucher, thanks to our good friends at Go Ride A Wave.

Book fun for the kids Kids are invited to follow their curiosity and investigate all kinds of mysteries in the national Summer Reading Club until January 22 at local libraries.

If you find these pictures confronting, imagine what it would be like to be a patient in these conditions.

Mozambique is one of the world’s poorest countries and Beira is the second largest city and home to Beira Hospital.

Locals John and Aliye Panos, who have travelled southern central Africa extensively over 30 years, came across this by chance and were shocked by what they saw.

Setting out to help, they offered to acquire and ship much-needed medical and hospital supplies from Australia. And, in 2012, they contacted Paul Bevan and David Stinson of Rotary Noosa and Ron Clark from Rotary Jindalee to discuss the project and the possibility of assistance with logistics.

“From the outset these Rotarians and their colleagues have shown extraordinary support for the project and in December 2012, a 20ft container was filled with hospital equipment and shipped to Mozambique,” they said.

The container arrived in Beira in March 2013.

It was then transported to a secure storage facility where it was unloaded and the equipment was immediately delivered to the Beira Central Hospital. Amongst the many improvements this equipment has provided, the entire Intensive Care Unit now has

Annex ward at Beira Hospital

Hospital beds were old, broken and dirty

proper hospital beds.

Now the Rotary Club of Noosa has taken up the challenge, together with John and Ailye, to fill a 40ft container ready for shipment to Mozambique in late February or early March this year .

This container will be filled with

hospital beds, bed linen, walking aids etc.

“We have added a new dimension to the goods being sent this time as we are endeavouring to also send basic carpentry tools to aid them in the maintenance of the hospital equipment and to teach them the necessary skills to do this so they can become self-reliant in the years to come,” said Rotary Club of Noosa President Tess Alexandroff .

Collection points have been set up at Bunning’s Warehouse and Jax Quick Fix Tyres in Noosaville and any surplus tools would be much appreciated.

To find out more email Stan Quin at leostanquin@bigpond.com or phone Tess on 0403 377 210.

1681-101

Last year 35,614 children and young people across Australia participated in the Club and over 260,000 books were read.

This summer’s club is packed with things to investigate, from mysteries and crime scene investigations to ex-

ploring your world and more.

Entering is easy by either registering in person at any Coast library or mobile library or by calling1300 LIBRARY (1300 542 727).

Then you simply need to read five items of your choice including books, magazines, comics and e-books over the summer holidays. Write your reading list on the reading log and hand it in to your local library by 5pm on Wednesday, January 22.

Check out www.summerreadingclub.org.au to find loads of stuff to win.

EXCELLENTLY ARGUED A few years ago, you will recall the “millennium bug” and its nigh-on universal acceptance. Claims of universal disasters have been descended upon us throughout human history.

Hence, I hesitate to enter the current debate on Climate Change/Anthropogenic Global Warming (whatever).

But I would like to comment on the quality of arguments that are so regularly offered in the media on the matter.

Most are carefully thought out pieces.

I admire most, presentations by Case Smit.

They are persuasive, done in a scholarly way, making observations that are just about impossible to deny. I understand that Case is academically qualified in the field - not that that has to be essential.

No one “knows” what the reality will eventually be, but the position adopted by Case, is always excellently argued.

COL WHEELER Noosa

SCIENTIFIC SCRUTINY Well shiver me timbers, climate science will never be the same. Two of our home-grown climate Galileos (NT, Jan 2) have turned it on its head! Nobel Prizes must be looming.

John Turner pours cold water on the accepted science. “Increasing concentrations of CO2 will have a cooling effect on the Earth because the intensity of the incoming solar infrared radiation will be reduced,” he writes. That’s exactly the opposite of the latest, hot off the presses IPCC Physical Science Basis Report which

or email to: editor@loca

concludes “continued emissions of greenhouse gases will cause further warming and changes in all components of the climate system.” So much for those thousands of smug climate scientists with their experiments and observations and data and calculations and peer-reviewed papers.

And Case Smit gives climate scientists the cold shoulder because “virtually all the heat that keeps the earth thriving comes from the sun – a fact ignored in most ‘climate change’ discussions.” Surely those same smug scientists don’t think the heat comes from the tooth fairy, do they? No, wait! The 2013 IPCC Physical Science Basis Report says, on page 135: “The Earth’s climate system is powered by solar radiation.” The 2007 report said (Section 1.2) “solar radiation powers the climate system”, and the 2001 report (Section1.2.1), “the ultimate source of energy that drives the climate system is radiation from the Sun”. Doesn’t look like “ignoring” to me.

I don’t think I’ll get too fired up about these revelations. They don’t stand up to scientific scrutiny.

GRAHAM COGHILL Marcus Beach

NIGHTCLUB ASSAULT This ought not to happen, but the reality is that it does, and often. The best defence is to take Mr Myagi’s advice as given to the Karate Kid when he asked how to avoid trouble.

That advice was: ‘No be there.’

I agree entirely.

NOOSA TODAY Most intelligent humans will say life essentially is evolved around balance. Up and down, yes or no, right or wrong, black and white etc. We’re governed by it everywhere.

Man thinks he’s in control until he plans a picnic without consulting the weather.

So I question why those who can’t see how sucking the guts out of the middle of the earth, that same earth we’re all walking on, isn’t showing the very signs of distress that now is obvious above it?

As above, so below.

Letters to the paper regarding climate change are a farce. It’s really quite simple. Man today has become a user and taker, forgetting to put back. Regardless of pseudo scientist proof, regardless of hearsay, mankind has created its own input and destruction. What is your input?

Why cycle for exercise when all you breathe is another man’s exhaust pollution?

Honestly what is mankind putting back in? Take a balloon, blow air into it and it inflates, then take air from it and it sucks dry. Where is there the difference?

Forget climate change, forget mining, oil drilling, sea dredging, chem trails, politicians, developers, and priests for just a minute. Then breathe.

A quick solution to our personal, environmental, financial and justice needs is just a breath away.

Mankind, through all the stress brought on intentionally by the polluters, has forgotten to simply breathe his own air.

JENNA OAKLEY Noosa

CLIMATE NEEDS ATTENTION Adrian Prince, Graham Coghill and others know that the atmospheric-science community has long been convinced that greenhouse-gas emissions are changing the global climate and need attention, but there are others who will never be persuaded.

These fully paid up members of the flat earth society unfortunately have similar thinking to our government, which is intent on scrapping the carbon tax, approving more coal mines, and continuing to subsidise the fossil fuel industry.

If we have any concern at all for this planet and future generations, we should be working towards renewable energy, stabilising our population and consumption, minimising waste, and aiming for a more equable society.

BRUCE HALLETT Tewantin

DO YOU GET IT NOW? On my first reading of John Turner’s letter re the “futile tax” (NT Jan 2), I was distressed that a thinking adult could get the science of global warming and climate change so wrong. What is this guy missing?

My distress has now morphed into a type of good cheer as I realise that John is really a modern day Lewis Carroll trying to write, in highly tautologous short series, Through the Looking Glass from a 21st century point of view. We just didn’t get it before.

You know how some people’s last name matches what they do for a living? Well, John Turner’s occupation is apparently turning things around so that black is white, up is down, yes means no and carbon dioxide will

have a cooling effect on the planet.

Do you get it now?

I’m just sorry I didn’t appreciate John’s geniuses at first. He has actually taken Lewis Carroll one step further. Not only is everything reversed, ie CO2 does not drive the global climate (as attested by 97 per cent of scientific papers addressing this issue) and countries that think they can derive base load power from solar and wind are preparing for the dark ages (here, I remind John that fossil fuels are actually stored solar energy), but he can contradict himself in the same paragraph without apparent embarrassment.

For example, John says that CO2 cannot trap heat, which is sort of correct (it is more like trap and release) but he then says that CO2 traps heat coming in from outer space. See how clever that is? Only a few of us equally clever sort would appreciate this.

Now, I can hardly wait for John’s next edition, though I suspect we have read it several times already in these pages. Give it your best, John, or let Colin or Woody or Cass present the redundancy for you.

STEVE HALL Cooroy

EXCUSE NOT REASON I write in support of Dianne Chapman-Brown (Noosa News, Dec 31), where some council official harassed her in regards to an advertising sign she had on the footpath outside her business. I have become increasingly concerned by the arrogance of power these petty unelected bureaucrats seem to presume for themselves - not only in relation to this incident but generally.

The excuse this time was partially “pose a risk to motorists by slowing

down traffic and distracting drivers.”

So the question needs to be asked when are they going to ban pretty women walking down the street?

I notice the same excuse is used to hand out fines to people trying to sell their cars from what is generally land that is unused and where the parking of the car poses no risk to anyone.

I tackled a Sunshine Coast Council officer who was booking cars parked with the “wrong” orientation on Gympie Terrace. Her reply to me was that it wasn’t because they were parked the wrong way but because they had to cross an unbroken white line to get into that position. I bet that is not what the ticket said. So it is an excuse not a reason.

I wonder if the new Noosa Council can do better? After all, who in their right mind would want to park with their back to the Noosa River?

Thomas Jefferson wrote: “When the people fear the government there is tyranny, when the government fears the people there is liberty.”

As I feel these people are running amok I do not want to be identified because if identified they might find some clever way of booking me for something “illegal” but perfectly reasonable.

Name supplied but withheld.

NOT ENTERTAINMENT How can we justify using these beautiful animals in these cruel events in this day and age?

It is hard to comprehend how anyone can enjoy watching an animal being tortured, let alone take children to these events, and call this entertainment!

The mayor of Ipswich has banned circuses and rodeos, he is progres-

SB

sive, compassionate, and is aware of the abuse the animals suffer.

I hope the new Noosa Council will step up and become heroes for the animals, too.

There is enough cruelty and abuse of helpless animals in this world, but if we can all do one positive step towards helping in some little way, the world will be a kinder place.

Take our heads out of the sand, set a good example to our children. Open our minds and let compassion come into our hearts, and look forward to a kinder happier world.

AN ABSOLUTE JOY The sight of garbage trucks does not usually move residents to tears, but that was the case this week in Noosa when Council vehicles started to patrol the streets bearing our old, very own, Shire logo. Congratulations to the hard workers behind the scenes at Pelican Street who opened the doors on Wednesday morning with Noosa Council signs firmly back where they belong, including logos on staff shirts and documents.

It’s been a long five years under outside control and an absolute joy to have Noosa back in our own hands.

FLASHBACK The old photograph of surf club members on Sunshine Beach featured in Noosa Today before Christmas prompted Noosaville local, David Freeman, to send in this lovely snap.

“It’s a very different take, on the same beach, one beautiful summer day of a more recent vintage,” David wrote.

AT THE MOVIES Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit

Peregian Originals is back this Sunday, January 12, from 1pm, with some amazing Sunny Coast acts that are doing great things around the country and, in some cases, around the world!

Opening the

Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit is an American action thriller directed by Kenneth Branagh, based on the character of Jack Ryan created

by Tom Clancy. It is the fifth film in the Jack Ryan film series and is also a reboot that departs from the previous instalments.

Dubarray tribal percussion rhythms, didge and ambient electro undertones which is sending audiences around the world into a dancing frenzy.

SOULA! is a band that really knows how to bring it live! Freight train drums, tight funk groove bass, menacing guitar riffs and a fat horn sound topped by the real soul sister power vocals of Teila are some-

thing to behold!

Seriously, how much fun can one band be? In2nation is a sixpiece outfit formed many “eons ago in a small coastal ewok village”, according to their band bio.

Get ready for some massive beats and a blend of hip hop, reggae and funk fusion lead warrior-style by MC Mick Dawg!

Unlike the previous films in the franchise, it is not an adaptation of a particular Tom Clancy novel but instead an original story initially conceived by screenwriter Hossein Amini featuring the Jack Ryan character.

The film stars Chris Pine in the title role, with Kevin Costner as William Harper, Kenneth Branagh as Viktor Cherevin and Keira Knightley as Cathy Ryan.

This film is to Tom Clancy, who died on October 1, 2013.

Top productions in Noosa Noosa Arts Theatre will screen some of the best stage performances from the National Theatre, from January 10.

William Shakespeare’s celebrated play Othello will begin the summer screenings on January 10, at 1pm and 7.30pm. Olivier award-winning actor Adrian Lester plays Othello, alongside fellow

award-winner Rory Kinnear as the deceitful Lago.

On January 17, Shakespeare’s tragedy Hamlet will be screened at both 1pm and 7.30pm. Performed at the Manchester International Festival, the electrifying production stars BAFTA award-winner Kenneth Branagh as Macbeth and Alex Kingston as Lady Macbeth. This unique production of Shakespeare’s tragic tale of ambition and treachery un-

folds within the walls of an intimate deconsecrated Manchester church.

The final screening of the series is Alan Bennett’s acclaimed play The Habit of Art, on January 31 at both 1pm and 7.20pm. The Habit of Art is a play as much about the theatre as it is about poetry and music. It looks at the unsettling desires of two difficult men and at the ethics of biography. It reflects on growing old, on creativity and inspiration and on persisting

when all passion is spent – ultimately, on the habit of art.

All tickets to the screenings are $25 for adults, $20 for concessions and Noosa Arts and Film Society members and $15 for children under 17. Bookings can be made in person at the Noosa Arts Theatre box office at 163 Weyba Rd, Noosaville or by phoning 5449 9343. Visit www.noosaartstheatre. org.au for more information.

Art as smooth as silk

Joan Madden

a variety of coloured paints into the reservoirs and showed us how to mix and apply it with watercolour brushes – not too much, and not too little on the brush each time. The paints were liquid, so the potential for spillage was great. However, we were also shown how to disguise any stray droplets of paint and incorporate them into our designs. Rock salt was also used in places, adding texture.

I found it completely fascinating and satisfying watching how the paint spread within the designated areas of the silk, and as it soaked and settled smoothly into the fabric, stayed where it was meant to be without runs or jagged edges.

By this time I think I was getting hooked, and after lunch we had all completed our test pieces and were ready to tackle the real thing – a silk painting that you could take off the timber stretcher, mount in a frame and hang on your wall at home. But all the time I was imagining my silk-satin flowing kaftan with exotic flowers and birds, painted by ME. But then, perhaps I’d better have a bit more tuition first!

For more information, visit www.noosaartsandcrafts.org.au or create@noosaartsandcrafts. org.au. Noosa Arts and Crafts, Wallace House, opens after the Christmas break on Monday, January 13.

PERSPECTIVE SHEILA R MASON

Joan Madden Love of Colour Joan Madden moved from chilly Canberra where she had been a ceramic student at the Canberra school of Art, to the Sunshine Coast and felt that a lifestyle change also warranted a change in her approach to art.

She had previously painted traditional landscapes and a change of scenery was the inspiration to not only start painting again after a gap of several years but also to change style. Abstract art attracted her and the use of vibrant colour, and the dramatic effects obtained with fascinating and often surprising results, captured her imagination.

Love of Colour will be on view at the Harbourside Gallery for the month of January.

Harbourside Gallery at Noosa Marina is open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 4pm, and Sunday/ Monday from 9am to 3pm. Phone 5447 5007 or 0411 244 304 or see www.harboursidegallerynoosa.com

I love fabrics. But I love silk the most. So it was natural that I jumped at the chance to try my hand at silk painting. Yes, painting on silk.

I had in mind coming away from the one-day workshop with a pure silk kaftan, or a silk-satin flowing robe, hand-painted (by me) in exquisite and delicate shades of turquoise and greens and pinks. A unique piece of hand-painted silk – the only one in the world, in fact!

However, tutor Robyn Davey, who has been artistically painting fabrics, and imaginatively using them in all manner of creative ways to superb effect, for most of her life, sensibly insisted we start at the beginning and learn the basics first.

There were just six of us in this Saturday class, making the session a real hands-on experience.

Squares of silk were fist stretched onto a special wooden frame, and tacked down with three-pronged pins. We then began drawing our designs faintly, in pencil – some ideas came forth from tried and tested sketches. We divided our silk squares into sections – two

I found it completely fascinating and satisfying watching how the paint spread within the designated areas of the silk practice squares, and one larger area for our masterpiece.

Once we were happy with our drawings Robyn began to educate us into how to apply the gutta – a water-soluble, almost invisible, liquid that you draw with on the

UP TO

silk, and then allow to dry. Once you start painting for real, the gutta prevents the paint (or dye) from spreading, or bleeding, on to the surrounding silk. Clever!

Taking out our plastic palettes, we followed Robyn as she tipped

Bruce had hired little-known San Clemente surf band The Sandals to record the soundtrack and suddenly their evocative theme tune was being played on the radio.

Brown was convinced he was on a winner, but to crack the national market he needed a big-time distributor, and they weren’t interested in regional surf films. So he drove as far away from the coast as you can get in America – Wichita, Kansas – rented the Sunset Theatre and showed it over two snowy weeks in early 1965. It outgrossed My Fair Lady and the distributors were suddenly interested, if Brown paid out another small fortune to blow it up from 16mm to 35mm.

In June 1966 The Endless Summer opened at the Kips Bay Theatre in downtown Manhattan (and I don’t mean Manhattan Beach). It was a smash hit. New Yorkers queued around the

block to get in. “Hypnotic beauty and almost continuous excitement,” gushed the New York Times. “Great movie – outtasight!” said the New Yorker, trying to be groovy. Bruce Brown did a laidback shuffle around the TV talk shows and soon his little surf film was playing 8,000 screens across America. No surf movie, before or since, has made such an impact.

As part of the global 50th anniversary celebrations for The Endless Summer, in association with Surftech, we’ll be screening the director’s cut at the Noosa Festival of Surfing in March, a free show on the beach at the festival village. Nearing 80 now, Bruce Brown doesn’t like long plane rides any more, but the original stay of Endless, Robert August, will be our special guest at the festival and he’ll provide a hilarious live narration a la Bruce.

Put The Endless Summer screening in your diary now: 7.30pm, Friday, March 14.

Nice one, Recipeof THE WEEK honey!

It’s sweet and delicious but next time you spread its sticky goodness on your toast, remember the health benefits of eating honey.

Patrick Williams from Belmondos Whole Foods Market shares a cleansing salad packed with goodness and antioxidants - perfect after all the indulgence of the festive season.

Honey is good for us inside and out, and it’s not some modern day fad. The health benefits of consuming honey has been documented in early Greek, Roman and Islamic texts, and was referred to by philosophers and scientists of old, including Aristotle.

Honey possesses antiseptic and antibacterial properties and the Egyptians used it topically to treat wounds.

The Greeks believed eating honey could help you live longer.

It is believed honey can help with acid reflux, gastroenteritis, colds and flu, allergies and infections.

Pure natural honey : is best for both taste 1/9 Sunshine Beach Road and health benefits.

“If there is any chance they may be suffering heat stroke, call Triple Zero (000) immediately.”

QAS Acting Commissioner David Eeles said paramedics are always busy when the temperature rises.

“Last summer, paramedics responded to approximately 355 cases across the state where people had suffered heat-related illness, equating to an average of four patients per day,” Mr Eeles said.

“In particular, severe heat stress may cause deterioration for those people who suffer from heart, lung or kidney problems.”

If someone is affected by the heat they need to be cooled down immediately. Always provide cool, non-alcoholic fluids, but only if the affected person can swallow.

• urine colour is a good guide to hydration - it should be clear to light straw-coloured, not dark or gold • public venues, such as air-conditioned shopping centres and pools, can provide refuge from the heat • people can also stay cool by taking cool showers or baths, soaking their feet in a basin of water, or wetting a bandana or washer and wrapping it around their neck • take time to adjust to the environment, pace yourself and limit strenuous outdoor activity

HEAT STROKE SYMPTOMS

• extremely high body temperature • red, hot, dry skin, but possibly some clamminess • a rapid pulse • headache • confusion

New Jag is all class

Mazda3 makes 2014 shortlist

CHRIS NIXON

All-New Mazda3 has been chosen as a finalist for the Car of the Year 2014 award, validating Mazda’s unconventional approach to building uncompromising vehicles.

It takes a leap of faith for drivers to accept a full-size Jaguar, a car expected to have sporting character at its core, can come with an engine of just four cylinders and 2.0 litres capacity.

That’s the XF 2.0 i4 and if it’s not what you expect, the bigger surprise is how good it is.

The XF is comparable in size to a Mercedes-Benz E-Class or BMW 5 Series, but thanks to a list price of $68,545 it stands to attract buyers used to the smaller C-Class and 3-Series.

In Europe, cars are getting smaller but more efficient engines to help them meet increasing standards for fuel consumption and toxic exhaust emissions.

We’re getting used to it in Australia and, specifically, the XF’s smallest engine also appears in the Ford Falcon Ecoboost. A Jag with a Falcon engine or Falcon with a Jag engine? Take your pick!

Either way, it’s a little beauty –

smooth, quiet and more willing that you would ever expect. A turbocharger boosts the output to 177 kiloWatts of power and 340 Newtonmetres of torque – but also mean you can have a full-size luxury sedan with mid-size economy of less than 8.9 litres per 100 kms.

Just as the Falcon Ecoboost won so much praise, drivers of the 2.0 i4 have no cause to feel short-changed in this four-cylinder Jag. A sophisticated eight-speed ZF automatic transmission is

a great match for the engine.

Ultra-smooth, 200-millisecond up-changes in small increments keep the small turbo engine on the boil.

The lighter weight of the aluminium four-cylinder engine over the nose helps the XF’s road-holding and ride comfort.

The Luxury model we tested is the least expensive in the XF range. It lacks leather seats and a few other touches but meets expectations for this price level. The XF’s party trick is its start-up “hand-

shake”. The proximity-sensing ignition key sets the starter button pulsing red. Then a circular metal gear selector knob rises silently on an electric motor from the centre console and the fascia air vents rotate from closed to open.

There are four petrol engines, two economical diesels and effectively five trim levels in the XF range. The full-bottle 5.0 XFR-S supercharged V8 will cost $222,545, but the i2.0 Luxury does very well for 70 per cent less.

Mazda’s refreshing new compact was nominated together with six other cars from 30 candidates vying for Europe’s oldest and most cherished automotive prize.

Freshly introduced in Europe starting in October, the new Mazda3 was the only Japanese model among the final seven and only one of two non-European cars.

It’s the most prestigious title so far for the latest generation of Mazda’s all-time bestseller, which has already won autoguide.com’s Car of the Year

in the US. The new Mazda3 was also a finalist for Green Car of the Year, as well as the 2014 Canadian Car of the Year: Best New Small Car in two categories.

Like its new-generation siblings - the Mazda CX-5 and Mazda6 - Mazda truly challenged convention with the All-New Mazda3.

Hatchback or sedan, it features the complete line-up of ultra-efficient lightweight SKYACTIV Technology underneath its stunningly aerodynamic ‘KODO - Soul of Motion’ exterior.

The forms have function inside, too. One highlight of the brand-new cabin is the enhanced human-machine interface (HMI), which includes the Active Driving Display, one of the first head-up displays in the C segment.

WORLD SURFARIS/MATANIVUSI SURF RESORT LEGENDS

The big news this week is that Shaun Levings and his team at World Surfaris have rejoined the Cricks Noosa Festival of Surfing family of sponsors for 2014 and will be providing another incredible competitor draw prize.

This time it’s an all inclusive surf trip to Matanivusi Resort, Fiji. That means airfares for two (conditions apply), seven nights deluxe beachfront bure accommodation, three meals a day, tea and coffee provided all day, return airport transfers, and daily surf and snorkel trip to local breaks.

Here at the Festival office we’ve been checking out the Matanivusi ecoresort on-line instead of working, and we’re drooling! This place looks insane, with a couple of lovely reef breaks just outside the resort’s lagoon, great fishing and snorkelling, great chef-prepared food and, of course, that wonderful

World Surfaris and Matanivusi Surf Resort will sponsor the legends event at the Cricks Noosa Festival of Surfing, presented by Jeep, with two spectacular displays of ageless surfing from champions old and new.

The Legends will be hitting the water on Sunday, March 9 just ahead of the festival opening ceremony, and again just before sunset on Friday, March 14.

bula welcome of the Fijians. But we can’t win it and you can, with a one in 500 chance if you’re a competitor, and even more chances if you fill out our competitor survey on surveymonkey that will be emailed this month.

Matanivusi is Fiji’s newest surf resort specifically built for discerning travellers who want surf, seclusion, service and satisfaction. Here you can surf Fiji reef breaks while your partner or family relax in the comfort and luxury of the beachfront resort with fine food, and resort facilities including a swim-

ming pool.  Matanivusi Surf Resort Fiji, situated on the Coral Coast of the main island of Viti Levu, is the ideal getaway with some of the best surf in Fiji just across the lagoon from the resort.

Mooloolaba-based World Surfaris is Australia’s leading surf travel agency, offering an incredible variety of surfing experiences for all ages, abilities and cash flow. Visit worldsurfaris.com for more information.

Remember, you can’t win the Fiji trip unless you are a competitor. Plenty of spots left in most divisions but

JEEP WATERMAN CHALLENGE INVITEES The eight champion watermen who will battle it out over four different surfing disciplines for a winner-take-all pot of $2500 has been decided. Competitors in order of their selection will be: Harrison Roach, Noosa: Currently the best logger longboarder in the world.

Taylor Jensen, San Diego and Angourie: The bi-coastal two-times world longboard champ has shown

Shirley Strachan Swim a huge success BETWEEN THE FLAGS RON LANE

Sunday morning, 7am, in front of Noosa Heads Surf Club - they were all there.

Club members aged from 11 to 60 gathered on the lawn to register for the 11th Annual Shirley Strachan Memorial Swim.

When the starter’s gun was fired at 9am in Noosa’s Little Cove, 80 members entered the water to contest the 1.2km swim, a swim that would see them finish on the sand

in front of the Noosa club. In calm but overcast conditions all swimmers were well covered by duty boats and ski patrols.

The continued success of this event speaks volumes for the dedication and loyalty of three people who, for 11 years, have put their heart and soul into making it what it is today - the sponsor John McDermott of McDermott Aviation, a good mate of Shirley Strachan, and the organisers, Bruce and Sandy Warren.

Speaking at the traditional presentation of trophies and barbecue McDermott said, “Shirley lived locally, he was a great Australian and he loved to surf and I thank all of you for your attendance here today.�

For Bruce Warren this event isn’t his only contribution to the

Sponsor John McDermott, far right, with winners Max Osborn and Nikki Chapman Noosa club. For many years he was responsible for the swimming standard in the club and during his time as Swim Captain the standard went through the roof when he organised the 10am Sunday surf swims for all members. However, his most outstanding contribution was his coaching of the rookies

who were undergoing their basic bronze training. It became a common occurrence at the Annual Presentation of Awards night for these rookies to acknowledge and thank Warren for his coaching and help.

During all this he had the fantastic support of his wife Sandy. It is people like the Warrens whose work and loyalty through the years has helped get Noosa where it is today. Also the relationship that Warren has established with McDermott Aviation should ensure that this annual swim will definitely be ongoing.

In the male category first home was Max Osborn then Cooper Williams and Jake McKenzie. In the women’s, Nikki Chapman was first then Jordan Mercer and Alex Nolan.

Rodeo on this weekend Roll up, roll up, roll up - the bushies are coming to the beach for the annual Noosa Pirates Honky Tonk Rodeo.

Sponsored by Tewantin Noosa RSL and Zinc 96.1, the Noosa Pirates Honky Tonk Rodeo is great entertainment for all the family. Come and see the raging bulls, the bucking broncos and the professional rodeo clowns as they go all out to thrill and entertain.

The rodeo is on the professional rodeo association calendar and offers big prize money, attracting the best riders in the land.

With its origins deep in our country’s history, organisers say saddle bronco riding is a stylised, highly skilled event, considered the most technically difficult rough stock event. They say bull riding is the ultimate test of courage and strength and is the most dangerous event in rodeo. With their strength and agility, weighing up to a tonne or more, the odds are firmly with the bulls.

The rodeo will take place this Saturday, January 11, at Pirate Park, 31 Butler Street, Tewantin. Gates open at 5pm for 6.30pm start. Tickets are $20 adult, $5 children under 12, family (two adults and two children) $45. A licensed bar and plenty of food and drink are on offer. Bring a chair as seating is limited. No eskies. Entertainment will be provided in the club house afterwards. For more details please contact Lexi on 0412 559 268.

Around the greens TEWANTIN NOOSA BOWLS CLUB Our club ended a very good 2013 with a lot of successful bowls days as well as being the focus for the State championships in May. The club proved it is quite capable of holding major events very successfully. The Super Challenge season is fast approaching with a final team training day to be held on Saturday, January 11, at 10.30am. The club is entering men and ladies into both silver and bronze teams. A men’s gold team will also be playing under the club banner but will be financed from outside the club. This is a new thing for the club to allow and many thanks must go to board members and the men’s committee to allow this to be tried. If successful it could bring a lot of success to our club.

Heath Costello

NOOSA HEADS BOWLS CLUB It was the start of the bowls year

at Noosa Heads but it didn’t quite happen as listed! The extreme heat ruling came into play as record high temperatures were recorded, causing play in the club championship men’s fours to be postponed until next weekend. The first round matches are now scheduled for 9am Saturday.

The Super Challenge series, involving clubs from all over Queensland, gets under way soon and selectors have been busy putting sides together for the opening rounds. Noosa will field teams in both silver and bronze sections. The ladies travel to Bribie Island for their first bronze match on January 18, with the silvers to play their first round at Pacific Paradise on February 1.

The men’s bronze also start their campaign at Bribie Island on the 18th while the silver men have a later start to their season when they host Club Maroochy on February 8.
