Family’s festive cheer BY TAMARA MCDONALD

WHEN Ella Von Stieglitz was born at just 30 weeks’ gestation on December 8, it looked likely her first Christmas would be spent in Hobart. But the brave premature baby, whose due date was February 14, 2017, amazed everyone with her rapid progress. Ella’s mother Chevelle Von Stieglitz dealt with deep vein thrombosis throughout the pregnancy which led to complications and the premature birth. Ms Von Stieglitz, of Carrick, had a stalled labour in Launceston, and was sent to the Royal Hobart Hospital within 24 hours for the birth, and so Ella could be in the neonatal unit. “It wasn’t pleasant at all, I didn’t want to have her early,” Ms Von Stieglitz said. “[Ella] wanted to be here for Christmas, she didn’t want her brother to steal all the presents,” she joked. After the birth, Ella spent two weeks at the Royal Hobart Hospital, before being transferred to the Launceston General Hospital. “She’s going very well, she’s flying through all the milestones,” Ms Von Stieglitz said. “She’s unstoppable, as the doctors say.” When Ella was born, the

“very tiny” baby weighed just 1450 grams. She now weighs 1690 grams, and Ms Von Stieglitz said she is “feeding well”. Ella spent 13 days in the humidi-crib, and it was only when she was transferred to the LGH that she was put in a waterbed before she was ready to be transitioned into a normal cot. Ms Von Stieglitz was overcome with joy that she would be able to see her son Jackson, 3, Ella, and her family for Christmas. “It’s incredible, I can’t even describe the feeling being at home with family for Christmas [brings],” Ms Von Stieglitz said. “We were very devastated, thinking that we were going to be in Hobart and not really seeing our three-year-old for Christmas,” she said. “It was a very emotional time for us.” Ms Von Stieglitz said Ella would receive a visit on Christmas Day, and her parents took Jackson to see extended family, which Ms Von Stieglitz said was “fantastic”. She said Jackson was adjusting to being a big brother. “I don’t think he really understands that we’re bringing her home just yet,” Ms Von Stieglitz laughed. Ella will be staying at the LGH indefinitely, depending on her response to ongoing care.

Police pleased by fewer offences BY LUCY STONE

CHRISTMAS FEAST: David Clark with his lunch at the Launceston Community Christmas, joining an estimated 500 other community members at Albert Hall for Christmas Day festivities and feasting. Picture: Neil Richardson

Community unites for Christmas lunch CHRISTMAS was celebrated with good spirit in Launceston this year, as around 500 people from all walks of life shared a roast dinner and traditional Christmas festivities at Albert Hall, helped by around 100 volunteers. Salvation Army regional manager Anita Reeve said

the focus of the Launceston Community Christmas was on bringing the whole community together. “We’ve really encouraged the community event, so it’s really not about targeting any group specifically, just for people that want to come and experience Christmas

today,” she said. “We’ve been really pleased with the response. “It’s been well-thoughtout and a great event.” Ms Reeve said the day was made possible chiefly thanks to the efforts of a large number of volunteers and the generous donations of local

businesses and individuals, including IGA. This year’s event was coordinated by City Mission, St Vincent de Paul, the Salvation Army, the Launceston Benevolent Society, and Colony 47 in partnership with the City of Launceston. – LUCY STONE

TASMANIA Police are out in force across the holiday season for Operation Crossroads, but say they are encouraged by a decrease in offences compared to last year, with some exceptions. On Saturday night police say they discovered a 12-month-old baby being nursed on the lap of a rear seat adult passenger when they intercepted a car at a Launceston random breath test site. The baby was unrestrained and the driver was fined three points and $350 for failing to ensure a passenger under the age of 16 was restrained. Police stressed that infants between the age of six months and four years are required to be restrained in an approved child restraint with an inbuilt harness. Another significant incident involved a 57-year-old woman from New South Wales, who returned a .214 per cent alcohol reading following a single-vehicle crash on Cygnet Coast Road in Wattle Grove. No one was injured in the crash. So far police have conducted 6,783 random drug and alcohol tests, up from 4,515 during the same period in 2015. The total number of infringement notices police

have issued so far stands at 261, compared to 346 in Operation Crossroads for 2015. Drivers booked for speeding were down from 227 to 172, and only 12 drivers have been stopped for using their mobile phones compared to 23 last year. Seat belt offences were also down to 20 from 26 infringements. Police are urging motorists to drive carefully across the busy season, and be aware of the five biggest contributors to serious and fatal accidents. The ‘fatal five’ are speed, failure to wear seatbelts or helmets, alcohol and drugs, distraction and fatigue. And for holiday-makers headed to Bruny Island on Boxing Day, police are asking drivers to be aware of the likelihood of long queues and traffic congestion. Police say that the ferry queue “has the potential” to impact local residents and businesses in Ferry Road and could increase the risk of crashes if motorists attempt to cross the centreline to pass on the Channel Highway. Department of State Growth contractors will be on-site to help manage traffic over Boxing Day, and the carpark of Kettering Oval can be used as overflow for the ferry queue. Police are asking drivers to have patience and follow any signs or directions as required.

Salmonids ‘most valuable’ BY LUCY STONE

16 per cent to $631 million over the same period. The Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences 2015 report showed that Tasmania had for the largest share of gross value of production at 30 per cent, followed by Western Australia at 21 per cent, South Australia at 17 per cent and Queensland at 11 per cent.

TASMANIAN salmon and wild rock lobster have contributed to a 12 per cent gross value increase in Australian fisheries and aquaculture to $2.8 billion over 204-2015. Farmed salmonids account for 53 per cent of the total value of aquaculture production in Australia, with salmon value increasing by

“Rock lobster was the most valuable species group produced, with a value of $668 million, a rise of 14 per cent in the year, and made up 42 per cent of the gross value of wild-caught fisheries production,” ABARES acting executive Mr Gooday said. Mr Gooday said that the aquaculture sector is becoming “increasingly important” due to the increase in Tasma-

nian salmonid production. The Tasmanian Seafood Industry Council chief executive Julian Harrington said the Tasmanian aquaculture sector value has increased 17 per cent to $650 million. “The $631 million dollar salmonid aquaculture industry continues to be the most valuable aquaculture species group in Australia, accounting for 53 per cent of

the total value of Australian aquaculture production,” Mr Harrington said. Tasmanian Rock Lobster Fisherman’s Association chief executive John Sansom said the wild catch rock lobster sector saw a 7 per cent rise in value. “Although the amount harvested has remained stable, very high export demand in south-east Asia,

combined with the lower value of the Australian dollar has seen the value of Tasmanian Southern Rock Lobster increase by 7 per cent to $89 million in 2014-15,” he said. Wild catch abalone and farmed oysters were down 6 and 1 per cent respectively, with the reporting period precediing the outbreak of Pacific Oyster Mortality Syndrome.

Shoppers tipped to spend up THE National Retailer Association predict Australian consumers will spend a record-breaking $2.28 billion on Boxing Day. The association’s chief executive officer Dominique Lamb said the predictions were an increase of 4.2 per cent from 2015 Boxing Day sales. “My advice to shoppers is to wear comfortable shoes, pack light, stay hydrated, and be kind to the sales staff who’ll be run off their feet,” she said. The retail council expects Tasmanians to spend $19 million at checkouts

this Boxing Day. One in 10 Australians are expected to attend the sales, predicting a smaller $1.6 billion total spend. The council’s chief executive officer Steve Wright said it was expected to be one of the busiest Boxing Day and

sales seasons yet. Over half the respondents in the Retail Council’s survey said they planned to attend the post-Christmas sales at some point. “This figure has jumped 13 per cent from last year, showing that consumers are increasingly eager to take advantage of the great sales retailers are putting on,” Mr Wright said. He attributed the rise to gift cards. “People are heading to the Boxing Day sales to maximise their value for money and cash out their gift cards.” – TARLIA JORDAN

Engineering fault halts Jetstar flight

FESTIVE: Launceston General Hospital executive chef Darren Davis, training and development officer Jason Cundall, chef Heather Carins and food service manager Rohan Beardwood prepare for Christmas. Picture: Scott Gelston

Festive feast prepared for patients BEHIND the scenes, staff at the Launceston General Hospital put extra special effort in to bring patients an enjoyable Christmas. LGH training and development officer Jason Cundall, who also works in the kitchen, said special thought went into delivering patients

a delectable Christmas day. The gourmet lunch menu included turkey, ham, honey carrots and cauliflower gratin, followed by puddings. Special breakfasts, dinners, complete with Tasmanian cheeses, and festive snacks were also prepared. “It takes a good few weeks

of organising,” Mr Cundall said. “It’s not easy being away from home at Christmas time, it’s always nice feedback that we get so it always makes it worth it.” Mr Cundall has worked at the LGH for about a decade. About 1500 meals were

distributed to patients and nursing home clients from the LGH on Christmas Day. The LGH rolled 2000 truffles, made 730 fruit mince pies and 1500 pieces of coconut ice and baked 600 Christmas tree biscuits over the Christmas period. – TAMARA MCDONALD

A JETSTAR flight from Launceston to Sydney was cancelled on Christmas Eve, leaving passengers stranded until Christmas Day. Jetstar confirmed their flight JG743 from Melbourne to Launceston was cancelled due to “engineering issues with aircraft”, meaning the plane could not collect passengers from Launceston for the next flight to Sydney. Passenger Georgia Sunol was left stranded: after Jetstar offered Ms Sunol an alternative flight at 8.40pm on Sunday, she told family members in Sydney she would not be able to spend Christmas Day with them. “It was disappointing for me but I had other options,” she said. Other passengers cried and appeared to be in distress, Ms Sunol said. Passenger Tsai Pei-Chun also said passengers were stressed and upset at the

cancellation. Instead of trying to re-schedule her trip to see her boyfriend in Sydney for Christmas, Ms Pei-Chun asked to cancel her flight, however was re-booked instead of being given a refund. “I tell them I want to cancel this one, and the Jetstar staff … just told me ‘oh I can’t help you cancel now, I just changed [you] to tomorrow’,” she said. Ms Pei-Chun was told to call the Jetstar hotline to cancel the flight, but was then told that they couldn’t cancel her rescheduled booking. “I hope they can give me money back, but I don’t know right now the situation,” she said. Jetstar said the cancelled flight from Melbourne departed at 8am on Christmas Day, and they expected “all customers to be at their destinations on Christmas Day today”.

Tour expands Cat Empire BY LUCY STONE

THE Cat Empire and Xavier Rudd – could there be a more perfect combination for the summer concert season? Making the most of summer, the beloved performers will be touring Hobart, Ballarat, Byron Bay, Sandstone Point, Adelaide and Wollongong in January and February, sharing the stage for the first time. The brass power of The Cat Empire consistently generates new affection from their fans, their infectious fast-paced songs a surprising combination with Xavier Rudd’s bluesy, folk-inspired instrumentals. Their ten-year career has seen The Cat Empire become not just an Australian band, but an international icon of sheer fun, with their latest album Rising with the Sun debuting at number one open the ARIA charts. The Cat Empire’s Harry J Angus said that the idea to tour with Rudd was put to the band by a music promoter. “We knew it would be a great show but then it all fell through,” he said.

STILL RISING: Felix Riebl and Harry Angus of The Cat Empire play the main stage at Falls Festival in 2013. They'll be joined by Xavier Rudd in a national tour kicking off in January, with a number of support acts. Picture: Scott Gelston

“Then it got resurrected from the ashes again. You know for over a decade we’ve seen each other play at festivals all over the world, but we’ve never done a concert together before.”

The bands will be joined on stage by up and coming acts Darren Harts, known as Harts, Ocean Alley, and Sahara Beck. “Sahara is a killer performer, as are all the bands on the

bill,” Angus said. “Trust me, they’re all hard acts to follow. That’s why we have eight people in our band, so that even if we can’t match the quality of the earlier sets, we beat them

on quantity.” While Sahara Beck won’t be performing with the Empire in Hobart on January 26, Angus said that it was always satisfying playing with other performers.

“It’s good to listen to musicians who are going to show you new ideas and ways of doing things. We all learn from each other,” he said. Heading back to Australia after an extensive international tour, Angus said that one of the band’s favourite countries to tour is Romania, describing it as “a crazy experience”. “We only started going there a couple of years ago, but when we arrived journalists kept telling us how one of our songs, The Lost Song, was ‘the most beloved song of all Romanian people’,” he said, noting that the experience of performing new songs was a key driver in the band’s enthusiasm. “ It’s like a debutante ball, you trot out all your precious little tunes and the audience gives them the thumbs up or the thumbs down,” Angus said. “Some songs only get played once, others keep going night after night.” Tickets for The Cat Empire and Xavier Rudd are still on sale – go to www. zaccariaconcerts.com.au for more details.

Sheepwash plan to help clean Tamar NEW water catchment plans for Sheepwash Creek in west Perth will aim to reduce the amount of pollutants entering the Tamar River. A joint effort between Northern Midlands Council and NRM North, the project will see the Sheepwash Creek stormwater drain into a rehabilitated waterway, which will reduce localised flooding and make the area more visually appealing. The project will begin with the installation of a sediment pond and wetland on the corner of Edwards and Youl streets. NRM North stormwater and catchment officer Jesse Webster said reducing the amount of pollutants entering the South Esk was crucial to the health of the Tamar River. “By installing water-sensitive urban design infrastructure such as a sedimentation basin and wetland, we can

reduce pollutants in the system while improving the overall amenity of the creek which is a win-win for the community of Perth and waterway health,” Mr Webster said. “The project will also be used as a demonstration project for other councils focused on improving water quality in urban creek lines.” Northern Midlands mayor David Downie said he was pleased the project had received backing from council, local industry and the Perth community. “The development will provide treatment for water during regular flow events which will reduce flooding and enhance water quality,” Cr Downie said. “The design of this project demonstrates our care for the environment and our natural resources.” The project is funded through the National Landcare Program.

BABY BURRITO: Tacos de Pancho owner Luisa Dornauf with her son Tiago, 8 months, in front of the food van. Ms Dornauf and her husband have sold their popular business to spend more time with Tiago. Picture: Paul Scambler.

Owners say adiós to Tacos de Pancho WHILE Tacos de Pancho may have been her first baby, the arrival of son Tiago has led to the sale of Luisa Dornauf’s much-loved food van and business. “He was born and the time of the service for the tacos is time we can spend with our child so we decided that he

was more important,” Ms Dornauf said. Tacos de Pancho was launched in April 2013 because Ms Dornauf wanted to show Tasmania a real taste of Mexican food. “I am from Mexico and [my husband] is an American and there are food van’s

everywhere there and they were not here, so I thought why not.” she said. “The first night we went out we expected no one to be there to be honest ... and next thing we open up and there is a line all the way down the park.” Tacos de Pancho was part

of Launceston’s food van revolution and Ms Dornauf said the council were willing to be open to the new idea. “We loved it, it was great, we met lots of people, we made friends with the other food vans and it was a great experience,” she said. – HOLLY MONERY

PASSIONATE: Launceston's Sean Brown will move to Sydney in February to follow his dreams after an interview in his kitchen secured his place. Picture: Tarlia Jordan

Kitchen interview a success RADIO presenter Ash London should watch out as Launceston’s Sean Brown has hopes and dreams of stealing her job. Mr Brown was accepted into The Australian Film Television and Radio School in Sydney on Thursday. “Since I was 16, I’ve wanted to go there. It was one of my biggest dreams,” Mr Brown said.

“They only accept 12-20 people each year. So across the whole of Australia, I’m pretty lucky.” Mr Brown had to submit a demo as part of the application process. As working for Fox Radio is his dream, he gained inspiration from the station. “I recorded all their cuts and put it in mine and did a fake interview with Bru-

no Mars. It took ages to put together because I was over thinking it,” he said. He then found out he’d been shortlisted and had an interview via skype. “I’d never been so nervous in my own kitchen before,” Mr Brown said. “My mum has always been my biggest supporter. I’ll miss home. But I’m excited.” – TARLIA JORDAN

TasTAFE looking to future BY MICHELLE WISBEY

LEARNING: TasTAFE chief executive Stephen Conway reflects on student numbers, the student loans scheme and the institution's high satisfaction ratings in 2016.

IN SOME ways, it has been a tough year for TasTAFE, but the institution is making strides to ensure a successful future is on the horizon. The organisation was hit with a drop of 4000 students last year and was indirectly affected by the national debacle of the vocational education and training student loans scheme. But students spoke extremely highly of TasTAFE, with graduate satisfaction rates reaching an impressive 90 per cent. Speaking to Fairfax Media, chief executive Stephen Conway acknowledged that this year had not come without its challenges, but said he was proud of his institution, his staff, and his students. “One of the highlights for me was seeing that the brand of TasTAFE is now more embedded in the education of Tasmanians,” he said. Mr Conway also revealed his ambitious plan to eventually see all prisoners at the Risdon Prison involved in vocational education. In terms of addressing

Arnott’s Jatz/Savoy/Clix 180250gm/Kraft Dip 185gm

a steep decline in student numbers, which dropped from 24,770 in 2015-16, compared to 28,841 the previous year, he acknowledged that TasTAFE had to change its tactics to recruit students. “We’re going through a process at the moment which is to go out and consult in regional areas and to listen to communities about what they want to be delivered,” Mr Conway said. “We’ve got to look towards how we engage with people because traditional marketing doesn’t work … there’s a lot of people who just don’t see that TAFE is either accessible to them or that they’re good enough to go to TAFE, which is not the case.” Mr Conway said all the feedback he received, both good and bad, would help improve the future direction of TasTAFE. “For those communities who live outside where our campus network is, such as the East Coast, we’ve got to do better to see how those students are going,” he said. “If we can engage with the students, if we can bring them into our environment

and show them that learning is enjoyable and it does create satisfaction, when we’ve got a much greater chance of working with them.” In October, the federal government announced a new VET student loan program was set to rein in national dodgy private colleges. While this did not directly affect TasTAFE, but Mr Conway said the negative stories circulating about the sector had been a challenge. “I think that whole story, whilst needing to be told, probably damaged the credibility of VET,” he said. “We need to work really hard to demonstrate to people that that was about a negative side of a commercial industry and how TasTAFE is different.” Looking into the future, Mr Conway said increasing enrolments was his focus. “We’re also in the process implementing a new student information system … this will enable students to access TasTAFE 24/7 and will bring about real efficiencies,” he said. “There are a lot of things to look forward to next year.”

Huge crowds head to terror target church

‘Gutless’ shooter still on the loose

THOUSANDS of people have flooded Melbourne’s St Paul’s Cathedral after the church was named as a target in a foiled terrorist plot that security agencies believe would have had terrible consequences. Three Islamic preachers from the city’s mosques also visited, taking part in lead-up services to the midnight Christmas mass, which was overflowing with Anglican and other churchgoers. Some 6500 people have attended St Paul’s Christmas services running over Saturday and Sunday. But more were turned away or had to make do with limited sound and visibility in the forecourt after the 1500-capacity church reached its fill. Three imams came to St Paul’s Saturday Christmas Eve services to show solidarity ahead of the biggest day of the Christian calendar on Sunday. “Three imams came through the course of the night, which was certainly a new experience for us,” Dean Andreas Loewe said. “To have actual leaders of Islam with us in solidarity was wonderful.” Dr Loewe was also grate-

A KILLER was still at large on Sunday more than 36 hours after a man was fatally shot in the head and another injured at a western Sydney park where children were playing. Police believe there were up to 10 people in the park when the 20-year-old man, named in reports as Antonio Hermiz, was killed after 5pm at Wetherill Park on Friday. An 18-year-old man, reportedly Ronaldo Odisho, was shot in the chest and transferred to Liverpool hospital. NSW detectives have formed a strike force to investigate the “gutless” shooting, which they say was targeted. “I was appalled that there were up to 10 people in the park at the time of the shooting; these are people who were going about their business, enjoying time together before Christmas,” Detective Superintendent Peter Lennon said. “It is unacceptable that these people have been put at risk in what is, in reality, an incident I’d describe as gutless and appalling.” Mr Odisho was in a stable condition on Saturday afternoon.

ful to representatives of other faiths who also visited St Paul’s. “There was a steady stream of people coming in and out of the cathedral and in the end I had to come out and give the ﬁnal blessing to people on the forecourt,” he said of the midnight service. Even though the plot

– which also included targets such as Melbourne’s Flinders Street Station and Federation Square – was thwarted, its scale and ambition shocked police and security agencies. It allegedly involved home-made improvised explosive devices, knives and other weapons that could have had horrendous

consequences if deployed. Victoria Police have since Friday cranked up their presence in the city and plan to maintain high visibility for some days, especially during the Boxing Day cricket Test. At St Paul’s seven police cars were parked outside on Swanston Street as ofﬁcers stood watch at the

entrance. Private security guards were also present. Dr Loewe said the extra security was reassuring. “I could see a lot of people just having a chat with the police and taking the time to say thanks for their work in stopping something that could of been tragic for our community,” he said.

Man in 20-hour torture ordeal Unborn baby dies in three-car crash A 42-YEAR-OLD man was beaten, burnt and robbed over a 20-hour period before managing to ﬂee a house at Marsden in southeast Queensland, police say. The man had arrived at the address in the Logan City suburb at around

10pm on Friday to ask about buying a motorcycle from people known to him, but he was allegedly detained against his will. “The man was allegedly assaulted with unknown implements and burnt with an unknown substance during his ordeal, and had

personal property stolen,” Queensland Police said on Sunday. The man managed to escape at around 5pm on Saturday and raise the alarm before being taken to Beaudesert Hospital for treatment to bruises, lacerations and burns.

A WOMAN is in hospital after losing her unborn baby in a three-car crash on Christmas Eve in Queensland. The 44-year-old driver was seriously injured when her Toyota was involved in a collision in Booral, near Hervey Bay, at around

6.45pm. “The woman was pregnant, and sadly her unborn baby died as a result of the crash,” a Queensland Police spokesman said. Police say the pregnancy was viable and will be included in their trafﬁc fatality toll ﬁgures. The crash happened

when a Mitsubishi sedan struck the side of a van going in the opposite direction on Booral Rd, police said. Two other women, aged 58 and 45, were also taken to Hervey Bay Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Inquiry calls after asylum seeker dies PRIME Minister Malcolm Turnbull has again defended his government’s policy on asylum seekers who arrive by boat after one man died and detainees rioted over his treatment. Refugee advocates now want a royal commission into medical care at Australia’s offshore detention centres on Papua New Guinea’s Manus Island and Nauru in the Paciﬁc. A 27-year-old Sudanese man, known as Faysal, died on Saturday in Brisbane after being airlifted from Manus the day before. “It appears that Faysal did not receive appropriate treatment for his condition and we now have another death that was likely to have been entirely avoidable,” National Justice Project principal solicitor

George Newhouse

George Newhouse said on Sunday. Faysal collapsed at the centre on Thursday and had been ill for more than six months, according to a fellow refugee on the island. “Every day Faysal went to medical asking for help. They did not help him,”

Beachgoers soak up the sun

Behrouz Boochani said in a statement from Manus Island released by the Refugee Action Coalition. “A few days ago a nurse … told Faysal that he was ﬁne and didn’t need medical treatment.” Faysal, who ﬂed Sudan in 2013 and tried to come to Australia by boat, had complained of heart problems and headaches, according to the statement attributed to Mr Boochani. The Department of Immigration said the man had died from injuries suffered after a fall and suffering a seizure. “The department is not aware of any suspicious circumstances surrounding the death and expresses its sympathies to his family and friends,” it said in a GOOD PLACE TO BE:Yana Martens plays cricket at St Kilda beach on Christmas statement.

Tips for kitchen design KITCHENS are often known as the heart of the home – they’re not just a place where meals are created, but a space that’s the centre of family life. Interior designer and ASKO advocate, Shaynna Blaze, shares some tips on kitchen design. 1. Decide how the kitchen will be used. How much will the space be used as a seating area at the bench, a place for kids to do homework or as part of a full open plan living space? 2. Don’t be afraid to push design boundaries. Ms Blaze suggests trying to step outside your comfort zone in small stages by incorporat-

ing colour in features like the splashback, bespoke handles and a different colour in the island bench to the main cabinetry of the kitchen. 3. While it can be fun to pick out design elements like benchtops, splashbacks and cupboard doors, one of the most crucial aspects of any kitchen is its functionality. “The kitchen layout must be practical. Allow for the most commonly used appliances – fridge, sink and oven – to be placed in the ‘work triangle’ so that moving between them all is only a couple of steps away,” Ms Blaze said. 4. Location of appliances. Don’t forget to ensure there

As it’s one of the most used rooms, it makes sense that the kitchen’s design is both visually appealing and highly functional, which relies on careful planning.

are enough power points, gas and water outlets, and that certain appliances also need

be properly vented. 5. Make room for space and storage. one of the most

common design mistakes is not allowing enough storage. “Install deep drawers for easy access to pots, pans and bowls, and slimmer drawers for all your cutlery, cups and plates, leaving the larger cupboard doors for all your pantry needs,” 6. Take advantage of natural lighting. Natural lighting adds to the illusion of space and works well with modern, open plan living. 7. Update appliances. Old appliances can contribute to the kitchen looking out-dated, so consider replacing them with models that suit the new design. 8. Bin it. If space allows,

plan for a recycling bin in addition to the general waste to make managing rubbish more efficient. 9. Counter island. If there are plans to install an island or bench, opt for enough overhang to allow for comfortable seating,” Ms Blaze said. 10.The kitchen sink. “Look at styles that have accessories like chopping boards, drainage trays and stainless covers. These help create extra bench space and the covers let you hide the mess when you are more interested in entertaining”. Details: Asko.com.au

TV GUIDE

The Grand Tour kicks into gear Former Top Gear presenters Richard Hammond, Jeremy Clarkson and James May keep their followers for a new show, writes Craig Mathieson.

mazon Prime Video, the streaming service of the US retailer, recently launched in almost 200 countries around the world, including Australia. The rationale for this great leap forward was simple: Amazon’s The Grand Tour, a new motoring show from the team responsible for the BBC hit Top Gear, had an expectant global audience. If fans couldn’t pay for the show legally, they’d download it illegally. “It’s a huge effort, but they’re a big company with big ambitions and we’re useful to them,” points out Richard Hammond, one of the trio of presenters to move from Top Gear to The Grand Tour. “Take Australia, we’ve enjoyed a following there for many years, so you can see the sense in it for Amazon. From their side we’re great for opening doors, from our side we can reach the people who’ve always followed us.” The 46-year-old Hammond is speaking from the London offices of W. Chump & Sons, the production company formed by Hammond and his fellow former Top Gear presenters, Jeremy Clarkson and James May, along with the show’s long-time producer, Andy Wilman. The quartet collectively departed the BBC last year amid legal skirmishes and tabloid headlines after the long contentious Clarkson allegedly abused and struck a Top Gear field producer.

When the dust settled the quartet went back to doing what they’d done together since 2003: mix a serious appreciation of motoring with mocking banter and daft stunts. What changed was their backer, with Amazon signing them for three 12-episode seasons. Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos described the deal as “very, very, very expensive”, and reports placed the cost of 36 episodes over three years at $275 million. “The budget, to be fair, isn’t massively bigger than it was at the BBC,” insists Hammond. “But it’s the same aim it’s always been: making the very best car show we can. There’s no other way to do it. Consciously modelling it on getting a certain demographic or skewering it towards a certain viewer is not how we do things. We don’t do anything based on science, we do it based on it being funny or informative or exciting.” The Grand Tour traverses the globe – “I’m sure we’ll be down there to abuse the Aussies at some point,” says Hammond in regards to a future local leg – and the sizeable budget is reflected in the gleaming production values. The production crew is so large that wherever they shoot a tech-laden van is present to “ingest” the data created by multiple 4K digital cameras. The question is, does the enormous budget stymie resourcefulness and spontaneity?

“Spontaneity is still an absolute must,” says The Grand Tour presenter Richard Hammond.

“Spontaneity is still an absolute must. In the old days we couldn’t go to the BBC and say, ‘Hi, can we have tonnes of money to go off to Africa to see if something happens?’. They would say, ‘No, you have to come up with a plan’. Now, we have to do that ourselves,” Hammond says. “At the same time we’d be fools if we weren’t trying new stuff. And as we do we’ll adjust and move on, knowing what works and what we like.” The weakest episode of the five released to date was the second, which dwelled on a lengthy half-hour scripted segment where the presenters took on a Special Forces training course run by the Jordanian military. Kitted out in camo, toting guns, and having to repeat each level because of multiple mishaps, it was a strange mix of Dad’s Army and the Tom Cruise film The Edge of Tomorrow. Cars appeared to be an afterthought. “OK, if you felt that then you felt that, but other people loved it,” responds Hammond. “That’s what I mean when I say we’re trying stuff. It’s our duty to do

that. It would be wrong of us if we passed up the opportunity to reinvent and move on and create something genuinely new. Sometimes you only know where the line is when you’re looking at it over your shoulder.” As is the case with Netflix, Amazon has given the makers of The Grand Tour no access to viewing metrics, instead simply indicating that they’re happy so far. Given that the BBC’s relaunch of Top Gear was botched, Hammond, May and Clarkson appear to have had their commitment to each other vindicated. “We are friends, even though we hate each other,” Hammond says. “It was also pragmatic and sensible for us to do this. We’re all grown up enough to realise we all work better when we work together.”

Trump dumps his charity New York US President-elect Donald Trump says he intends to dissolve the Donald J Trump Foundation, which is currently under investigation by the New York attorney general. Trump gave no timeline for winding down the

foundation, but said in a statement that he wanted “to avoid even the appearance of any conﬂict with my role as president.” He takes ofﬁce on January 20. New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman in October directed the foundation to stop taking

donations because he said it violated state law requiring charitable organisations to register with a state ofﬁce. The order followed a series of reports in The Washington Post that suggested improprieties by the foundation, including using its funds to settle

legal disputes involving Trump businesses. A spokeswoman for the attorney general’s ofﬁce said yesterday that Trump could not shut the foundation while the investigation was ongoing. “The Trump Foundation is still under investigation by this ofﬁce and

at “essentially no cost for decades.” “But because I will be devoting so much time and energy to the presidency and solving the many problems facing our country and the world, I don’t want to allow good work to be associated with a possible conﬂict of interest.”

Pope’s Christmas Eve mass message

Sri Lanka claims world’s tallest Christmas tree COLOMBO: Sri Lanka has unveiled a towering Christmas tree, claiming to have surpassed the world record despite construction delays and a shorterthan-planned ﬁnished product. The 73m artiﬁcial tree in the capital Colombo is 18m taller than the current record holder, organisers said. The tree’s steeland-wire frame is covered with a plastic net decorated with more than a million natural pinecones,

cannot legally dissolve until that investigation is complete,” spokeswoman Amy Spitalnick said. She would not say when the investigation was likely to be completed. Trump said he was “very proud” of the money raised by the foundation and said it had operated

600,000 LED bulbs and topped by a 6m-tall star. The tree cost $111,400 and was criticised by the Catholic Church as a “waste of money”. Prime Minister Ranil Wickremesinghe responded to the criticism by saying the tree was not being built with public money, but with donations from individuals and private firms. Guinness World Records is yet to confirm if this is the tallest artificial Christmas tree.

POPE Francis has celebrated Christmas Eve mass in a packed St Peter’s Basilica, rounding out a year marked by his pleas for the world to better protect innocents caught up in wars, migrations and abject poverty. The late night Mass was the ﬁrst major event of the Christmas season, and was to be followed by Pope Francis’ noon Urbi et Orbi (To the city and the world) blessing on Christmas Day. In his homily, the Pope

urged his ﬂock to reﬂect on how children today aren’t always allowed to lie peacefully in a cot, loved by their parents as Jesus was, but rather “suffer the squalid mangers that devour dignity.” He also called for the faithful to not get caught up in the commercialisation of Christmas – “when we are concerned for gifts but cold toward those who are marginalised.” Materialism has “taken us hostage this Christmas,” he said. “We have to free ourselves of it!”

Super typhoon spends Xmas in the Philippines Manila

Netanyahu blasts UN vote as ‘shameful’ Jerusalem ISRAEL will re-assess its ties with the UN after the adoption by the Security Council of a resolution demanding an end to Israeli settlement building, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says.

The vote was able to pass the 15-member council on Friday because the US broke with a longstanding approach of diplomatically shielding Israel and did not wield its veto power as it had on many times before – a decision

that Netanyahu called “shameful”. “I instructed the Foreign Ministry to complete within a month a re-evaluation of all our contacts with the United Nations, including the Israeli funding of UN institutions and

the presence of UN representatives in Israel,” Netanyahu said. “I have already instructed to stop about 30 million shekels ($10.9 million) in funding to ﬁve UN institutions … and there is more to come,” he said.

HUNDREDS of thousands of people have ﬂed their homes in the Philippines on Christmas Day as powerful Typhoon Nock-Ten barrels towards the country’s eastern coast. Nearly 12,000 passengers were stranded after sea travel was suspended and more than a dozen domestic ﬂights to eastern provinces were cancelled as the typhoon neared. Nock-Ten, which was

intensifying as it neared the Philippines, was expected to make landfall on Sunday evening over the eastern province of Catanduanes, the country’s weather bureau said. The typhoon was packing maximum sustained winds of 185km/h and gusts of up to 255km/h. It was moving west at 15km/h and was set to bring heavy rainfall. Coastal areas were warned of storm surges reaching up to 2.5m.

OUR FUTURE POPE’S BEST OF 2016

Gifts of gold, frankincense and a greener future for all

PETER GUTWEIN

HE first Christmas was a time of great uncertainty with an oppressive Roman empire and King Herod trying to kill baby Jesus. But three wise men, looking to the skies for direction, followed a star that led them to Christ, bringing him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. Fast forward 2000 years, and 2016 is set to be the hottest on record. As we head into Christmas, we face the threat of heatwaves, bushfires and drought. So again, wise Christians are looking to the sky for direction. Whether it’s growing your own veggies, going solar or promoting clean air, Australians are recognising the most valuable gift we can give our children this Christmas is a sustainable future. Take, for example, Judith Dalton of St George's Uniting Church in Eden, New South Wales. She spearheaded a "Garden of Eden" whereby the church congregation grows vegetables together, nurturing their sense of community and shrinking their collective carbon footprint. At Caloundra on the Sunshine Coast, David Lowry led a push to install solar panels on his church in the shape of a cross. His gift to the future generations is not only a visual testimony to his faith, but also a practical source of renewable energy. Rose Vincent from Bendigo in Victoria has brought the gift of clean air to her neighborhood. The community, with the “Old Church on a Hill” plants trees to coincide with special services. Hundreds of parishioners and congregations around Australia are taking the lead on cleaning up and taking the pressure off our environment. Together, let’s choose our gifts wisely, so that we can pass on a healthy planet for our children and grandchildren. Jody Lightfoot is the sustainability spokesperson for Common Grace, an Australian movement of Christians passionate about Jesus and justice.

State is on move after a challenging 2016 T HIS year has seen Tasmania face many challenges, from the bushfires last summer to the flooding in June. As a government, we have worked to support and empower those impacted communities. I would like to again publicly thank all of the emergency service personnel and volunteers who have been involved in supporting communities to restore built and natural assets. Even when facing these challenges, the government has been able to deliver a Budget that is back in the black four years ahead of schedule. I am pleased to report that the Tasmanian economy is performing strongly. Exports are up 8.7 per cent in the 12 months to September 2016, the Tasmanian economy has had 24 months of consecutive retail trade growth and 10 consecutive quarters of economic growth. Our government has recognised that the Northern Region has not felt the benefits of our recovering economy to the same degree as other parts of Tasmania. In September, the Premier and I announced the Northern Economic Stimulus package which will support $100 million in additional state and local government infrastructure, as well as $100 million in private sector investment,

along with more than 800 direct and indirect jobs. The government has continued to reinvest the dividends of our strong economic management into improving health outcomes, increasing education standards and reducing the cost of living. In this year’s Budget I was pleased to announce key projects that have benefited our local community. These projects include over $30 million of capital investment for Riverside High School, Queechy High School, Prospect High School, Riverside Primary School, and East Launceston Primary School, $9.4 million for capital improvements at the LGH and $2.3 million for local Neighbourhood Houses including a new facility for the Northern Suburbs Neighbourhood House. The Hodgman government is committed to lowering people’s cost of living and we are actively finding ways to improve Tasmanians’ hip pockets. Under this government, the Motor Accidents Insurance Board’s (MAIB) has reduced their premiums by a significant 7.5 per cent, for every Tasmanian motorist paying the standard motor car premium – a direct saving of $24. Further to this reduction, the government has overseen a decrease in household energy prices by 2.4

per cent since the March 2014 election. While 2016 has been a productive but challenging year for the government, 2017 also has some very exciting projects on the horizon. Early in the new year I will finalise the State Planning Provisions, which form the heart of the Hodgman government’s single, statewide planning scheme. The SPPs will set the statewide planning rules to deliver on the government’s commitment for a fairer, faster, cheaper and simpler planning system while ensuring that these unique and special local features can be protected and preserved. Also in the first half of 2017 all three levels of government will sign the Launceston City Deal, the second deal of this nature in Australia. Once finalised this deal will allow for a co-ordinated policy approach across the three levels of government and will help drive investment in both public and private projects that will generate jobs and economic growth in Launceston and across the broader region. Can I also take this opportunity to also wish all Tasmanians and happy and safe Christmas and a prosperous New Year. ■ Peter Gutwein is theTasmanianTreasurer and Bass Liberal member

EDITORIAL

Christmas quiet holds important lessons

NE of the most striking things on a Christmas morning is the quiet. The usual hum of weekday traffic and bustle, and even the weekend noise of lawnmowers, sporting matches and activity – all are gone. It’s the noise of people being at home with their families, or travelling elsewhere visiting faraway loved ones. Christmas is one of the few times of the year that remains a sacrosanct day for family, friends, rest and reflection. The holiday draws the cynicism of some who reject the consumerism that has seeped into it. Certainly we put ourselves under pressure to get loved ones the right presents, but even that shows how important those people are in our lives. Compared to other holidays, it remains

significant in a way that no other day does in Western countries. Like all good holidays, it’s imbued with some magic and mythology, and stories that keep people young. At its heart, the message of peace and goodwill to all is something that gives the world a much-needed yearly reminder. Some of the best teachers at Christmas time are young people. The innocence and excitement they bring to the day shows that there is more to life than the daily grind many adults find themselves in. Another important lesson is given by our emergency services, and volunteers, who work on Christmas Day to make sure others can enjoy the holiday safely. The work of staff at the Launceston General Hospital, who put in an extra special effort to bring patients an enjoyable Christmas, is also

inspirational. LGH training and development officer Jason Cundall, who also works in the kitchen, said special thought went into delivering patients a gourmet lunch menu including turkey, ham, honey carrots and cauliflower gratin, followed by puddings. The staff also put on special breakfasts, dinners, complete with Tasmanian cheeses, and festive snacks. It shows a love for their work and a dedication to their patients that everyone can learn from. There are so many Christmas stories, from the nativity onwards. They hold themes of miracles, forgiveness and generosity. As the world heads into more uncertain times in 2017, these lessons are more important than they’ve been for a long time. That Christmas morning quiet is a sign of something more important than we realise.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

MY SAY

TEACHING

CHRISTMAS BINGE

I AGREE wholeheartedly with John Coulson (The Examiner, December 15). Teaching methods have changed radically since I was at school, and in some cases, not necessarily for the better. Lately, I have been questioning primary-school children about their tables. They no longer learn them by rote as we did, which would be all right except for the fact that they don’t know them. I have asked a simple question like ‘six times nine’, and haven’t yet found anyone who is able to give me a prompt answer. Tables are the most basic part of mathematics and are the foundation of more complex procedures, therefore they need to be mastered as early as possible. People of my generation were required to recite tables every morning, and as a result, we don’t have to look them up or use a calculator. It’s like learning the words of a song; if sung often enough, the brain retains the lyrics. Maybe teachers of today could use a rap style to teach tables.

POLICIES of principle have again been shelved from the 2016 promise to remove the politicians gold travel card. Before the Christmas break? Yeah right, at best after they have run up another huge taxpayer Christmas airline and taxicab binge. Don’t ya just love em. Wally Reynolds, Perth.

Val Clarke, Kings Meadows.

POWER TROUBLES CONFUSION seems to be a constant companion brought about by various means, my own thoughts, friends, relatives but more often than not by our governments and their departments. A case in point is a heading in (The Examiner, December 15) proclaiming “Power Price Reduction” to come in 2018, then further into the paper and we find “Electricity Prices to go through the Roof”. Further reading suggests that Tassie will be ok, while Victorians will be hit hard. This brings me to a comment in The Examiner on December 17 by Graeme Hay which asked if we are all afraid to say the Dam word, and if so, is it because of the huge betrayal of Tassie by Bob Hawke and his Green friends?

ECONOMIC MANAGEMENT

The view that we can’t build anymore Dams can be changed and then the only thing that would besot in concrete would the Dams themselves. Some would consider the most important structures that were built in Australia to be Sydney Harbour Bridge and the Opera House, think again try the Snowy Mountain Scheme on for size, we could use a couple more of those, one in Tasmania, Jobs and Growth in Action. Ron Baines, Kings Meadows.

SANTA SOMETHING about the Santa Claus myth occurred to me recently, and caused me to think about the story in a new light. After all, here we have the tale of a bearded man living in an inaccessible place, surrounded by magic helpers. Using some supernatural powers he is able to know when all the children are sleeping, when they are awake and especially when they’ve been bad or good. Good behaviour is rewarded with the

promise of Xmas toys and bad behaviour with some punishment like missing out on Xmas gifts. Surely then, Santa is ‘God’ for little children who haven’t yet worked out that flying reindeer and the delivery of millions of gifts by one man in one night is somewhat implausible. Still, at least there is some evidence. After all, for most children in our society, the gifts do turn up, and milk and biscuits do seem to have been partially consumed. It seems to me that if Santa is ‘God’ for little children, then equally God is Santa for adults. The main difference is that adult believers seldom manage to work out that no-one is really going to come down their chimney, and there is no bag of toys. On balance I think the children have the better delusion. At least the rewards are real even if the source is imaginary, and the best part is they don’t have to be dead to collect. David Tyler, Blackstone Heights.

RECENTLY pay television is rerunning (again) episodes ofYes Minister. Obviously ourTreasurer is an avid viewer and follows the advice that if the economy is in trouble the first thing to do is blame others for the problem and without producing a single piece of evidence state that it would be much worse if the opposition was in power. After multiple months of uninterrupted economic growth the latest figures show a negative result. What has changed during this period,well we do have a newTreasurer who believes that in order to increase revenue the way is to give tax breaks to companies great and small and high paid employees and this will create more jobs. Why when so many employees are working unpaid extra hours in order to retain their jobs would these companies give away an increase to their bottom line. Just goes to show “Jobs & Growth”is a slogan not a policy. A. Carter, Mowbray.

AUSSIE REPUBLICANS JUST great, our Prime Minister is scheduled to address the annual Republican movement dinner. Australia is now borrowing $100 million a day (not a week, month or year but every day) just to keep afloat. We have no surplus. Our last quarter showed economic decline and we have now passed the trillion dollar mark in our national debt. Will his republican mates have the solutions Australia so desperately needs to get us out of such dire economic circumstances? What are the chances? Jack Sonnemann, Lucaston.

BBL has Broad appeal for English paceman CRICKET HOBART is a long way from home in central England for Test paceman Stuart Broad but the BBL newcomer says Australia’s short-format tournament gives him great exposure in the UK. Due to make his second appearance for the Hurricanes when the side takes on Melbourne Stars in Hobart on Boxing Day, Broad

Stuart Broad

has championed the BBL for its appeal across timezones and among the next generation of cricketers. “In England I’m a big fan of it because it’s on at a great time in the morning – you wake up and it’s on,” he said. “Almost more people watch the Big Bash in England than they do the domestic stuff in the middle of the summer because it’s

just such a great time for us to watch.” The 30-year-old, whose CV includes contributing to England’s ICC World T20 title in 2009, admitted he got hooked on the excitement of the tournament in its early years. “The standard of cricket is really high,” Broad said, after getting his maiden ﬁrsthand taste during the Hurricanes’ 60-run win

over the Sydney Sixers on Friday. “The way the tournament engages with fans, I was amazed with the amount of kids (at the SCG) all wearing replica kit and getting really involved. “That’s something the tournament is about because you want to inspire the next generation and you can only do that by kids watching the sport.”

Why Sydney FC could be A-League’s Invincibles SOCCER BY MICHAEL COCKERILL GRAHAM Arnold might get to write his own headline after all. So far Sydney FC are living up to the “Invincibles” tag given to them by their coach, and while it still remains a Herculean challenge to go through the season unbeaten, the Sky Blues are looking more unbeatable by the day. Maybe, just maybe, they’ll pull it off. Seven points clear at the top as we edge towards the halfway point, Sydney FC have lost just once since kicking off their pre-season against Earlwood Wanderers in July. That loss was, of course, the FFA Cup ﬁnal against Melbourne City, so it was particularly hard-felt. It’s arguable the Sky Blues were actually the better side on the night, so performance-wise they’ve barely skipped a beat. And ominously for the rest of the pack, as they prepare for a Boxing Day trip to Adelaide, they look like they’re going to get better, not worse. Especially if

ON THE BALL: Coach Graham Arnold is credited with Sydney FC’s current on-field success. Picture: AAP they do fill the final import spot on their roster. It’s debatable whether the accumulation of points – or the fact that his team is so far ahead of Western

Sydney Wanderers on the ladder – will be giving Arnold more pleasure. For whatever reason, since arriving at Moore Park over two years ago,

he’s made the local derby personal. Arnold hasn’t lost a derby, and Tony Popovic has only tasted success once against his old Socceroos

teammate (when Arnold was at the Mariners). So the fact that the Wanderers – barring a huge form reversal – are now long odds to overtake the

Sky Blues will be giving Arnold extra satisfaction. Satisfaction. That’s exactly what Arnold is feeling, and savouring, right now. It’s why last week he recommitted to the club for a further two seasons. Barring a big offer from a big foreign club, “Arnie” is set to comfortably become the Sky Blues longest-serving coach. It’s been illuminating watching how he’s grown into the role. Indeed it says a lot about the respect for Arnold around the league – especially among the Sydney FC fans – that when he talked about turning the club into the Manchester United of Australia nobody laughed. How long will it last? Nobody knows the answer to that. But right now, on so many levels, things are looking good. In fact it’s fast getting to the stage where the minor premiership will be Sydney FC’s to lose, no matter how many games the chasing pack can win. The championship? They’re hot favourites, no doubt about it.

IN BRIEF FOXES FINE SANS VARDY LEICESTER goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel has backed the Foxes to cope without suspended striker Jamie Vardy. The England striker is suspended for the champions’ next three games, starting with Boxing Day’s visit of Everton. Vardy was sent off in last weekend’s 2-2 draw at Stoke by referee Craig Pawson, who ruled he had dived in on Mame Biram Diouf.

‘PRICELESS’ DEFOE NOT FOR SALE IBRAHIMOVIC DAVID Moyes insists STAYING PUT

Jermain Defoe

Sunderland will not sell “priceless” striker Jermain Defoe next month as he represents their best chance of staying in the Premier League.The 34-year-old’s goals have proved invaluable to the Black Cats since his return to English football fromToronto two years ago, and the eight he has managed so far this season have rekindled the club’s hopes of mounting another successful survival ﬁght.

JOSE Mourinho has indicated the in-form Zlatan Ibrahimovic will see out his career with Manchester United rather than embark on a swansong in America or China. The 35-yearold Swede is United’s top scorer having netted 16 times in 25 games, including 10 in his past nine, and Mourinho stated he intended to exercise the second-year option on his contract.

Monday December 26, 2016

Baldock’s winning streak to be tested SIX-YEAR-OLD gelding Baldock will be looking to keep his unbeaten record this season intact when he lines up at the Devonport Showgrounds on Monday evening. The Marc Butler-trained pacer is resuming after his last-start victory in Launceston on November 13. The Christian Cullen-gelding has come up with barrier four on the second line for the race, one position wider than his win on the track two starts ago. The main danger appears to be the Craig Hayes-trained and driven pacer The Real Reverend who will start from the pole position if the emergency gains a start. In the sixth event on the program, the junior driver-only race, Butler will put the polish on former Victorian pacer Jilliby Gigi who was a winner at Kilmore two starts ago before making his way across Bass Strait. The eight-race program gets under way at 5.57pm.

Short break no burden HORSE RACING BY BRAD COLE

AFTER its first taste of weight-for-age racing last week, trainer John Blacker is confident that Magnasa will back up well in Monday’s $25,000 Sheffield Cup (1650 metres) at Spreyton. The five-year-old struck a pacy field in the Tasmanian Stakes at Mowbray to finish five lengths back in 10th, with the winner Admiral, breaking the 1600m track record. But a sharp drop in weight of 3.5 kilograms should see Magnasa back at the pointy end of the field by the end of the second traditional Devonport Cup lead-up race according to the Longford trainer. “He probably got back a bit too far (last Wednesday) because the went crazy and broke the track record, but he pulled up good,” Blacker said. “He finished the race off well and had the race been a tad further or with a little bit more luck in the run, instead of getting beat five lengths, he would have been beaten by two-and-a-half lengths

BACK ON TOP: Trainer John Blacker hopes Magnasa can return to his winning form from last month in Monday's Sheffield Cup. Picture: Brad Cole.

and it would have been a real good run. “If he runs fair and is competitive on Monday, he’ll run in the Devonport Cup, but if he runs below par he’ll go straight for a break.” Magnasa missed a chance to bypass the Devonport Cup ballot when finishing fourth to Sound Bar in the Golden Mile on December

9, although his rating of 82 should be enough to get him in the final field. He meets a number of those horses again on Monday, but again gets the 3.5kg weight relief. “I think he is well-weighted at 55.5kg and has a good rider (Daniel Ganderton) on him so he should go okay – he’ll be one of the favourites

no doubt,” Blacker said “He went well in the Golden Mile and when the front-markers went past the 500m they were the first three placegetters, but he was in a good position and carried 59kg.” Another horse coming out of the Tasmanian Stakes, the Adam-Trinder trained Jerilderie Letter, is also in

the Sheffield Cup field and will most likely be the one to beat after a strong third last Wednesday night. Racing also continues on Boxing Day at King Island with the second meeting of its season. The dual-code event features five thoroughbred races and two harness races, with racing starting at 12.30pm.

Maddinson gets his Christmas miracle Struggling batsman given reprieve as unchanged team picked BOXING DAY TEST AUSTRALIA will field an unchanged XI for the Boxing Day Test against Pakistan at the MCG, with struggling batsman Nic Maddinson spared the axe. There had been strong speculation Maddinson could be dropped in favour of uncapped allrounder Hilton Cartwright, having scored a duck, one and four in his first two matches in the baggy green. But Australian captain Steve Smith said selectors opted to stick with the team that beat Pakistan in Brisbane, despite the heavy workload his pacemen shouldered during the first Test. Pakistan’s stubborn fourth-innings comeback at the Gabba meant Mitchell Starc and Josh Hazlewood each bowled 56 overs for the match, while Jackson Bird bowled 45. “We brought the allrounder into the squad because the bowlers had a pretty heavy workload but they’ve pulled up well and they’re confident they can get through,” Smith said yesterday. “Obviously (Nic) hasn’t started the way he would have liked. I was really proud of him in the second innings in Brisbane to come out and do the thing for the team and try and score quick runs and have a crack. “That’s what we want from our team, to have un-

selfish players like that and I thought he did a good job to come out and do that.” With plenty of grass on the MCG wicket, Smith may be tempted to send his bowlers in first should he win the toss. “It’s a lot greener than I’ve seen it in the past couple of years,” he said. “The grass dies pretty quickly here and the wicket goes white so we’ll sum it up the morning and see what we want to do from there. “I think the red ball out here is going to be a lot different to the pink ball. The decision to field an unchanged line-up in Melbourne signals a desire for continuity after a period of turmoil during Australia’s 2-1 series loss to South Africa. And with a tour of India on the horizon, Smith is confident Australia is back DISAPPOINTING: Batsman Nic Maddinson departs after being dismissed for four runs in firstTest. Picture: AAP on track.

Warner conﬁdent big score is close BOXING DAY TEST AUSTRALIAN opener Dave Warner is conﬁdent a big Test score isn’t far away, with the big stage of the Boxing Day Test the perfect opportunity to get back amongst the runs

INCONSISTENT: David Warner has been in blistering form in the shorter games, but has failed to ﬁre in theTests. Picture: AAP

Warner’s form with the bat at Test level hasn’t matched his blazing limited-overs output of late, but the opener isn’t fazed. “It’s just a little bit of a cycle, I think,” Warner said. “I go out to try and put as many runs as I can on the board as I can. Same mindset, same process I go through with training (but), at the

moment, I’m hitting them well in the nets but not making enough in the middle. “The tide will change. Many players before have experienced the same thing. “I’ve just got to keep a level head, a cool head, and make sure that I watch every ball as hard and as closely as I can.” Warner made 97 in the ﬁrst innings of the ﬁrst Test against South Africa but hasn’t passed the halfcentury mark since. His form in the ODIs is white hot in comparison, the opener blasting seven centuries this year with back-to-back tons in his last two

innings against New Zealand this month. Warner is unsure whether a concerted effort to improve his limited-overs output 18 months ago has adversely affected his Test form. “It’s a tough thing to answer because sometimes as a player you go from Twenty20 to Tests to onedayers then start Tests again and it is hard but you’ve got to adapt,” he said. “Being a professional player you get used to it but you have to keep calm and back what you do. “In the nets I’m hitting them well but you’ve got to take that out onto the ﬁeld.”

LOOKING THE SAME WAY: Will Clarke and Richie Porte, contesting the Stan Siejka Launceston Classic on December 2, will be World Tour rivals in 2017. Picture: Scott Gelston

Will’s grand designs Big Horse fancies a gallup in Le Tour BY ROB SHAW

ILL Clarke has twice tackled the mountain of top-level cycling but is now targeting the summit. Landing a World Tour contract for the third time in his roller-coaster career, the 31-year-old Tasmanian says he has plenty left on his bucket list. “It’s a big opportunity for me,” Clarke said from his home in Campbell Town. “There’s definitely a few things I’d still like to do. I’d like to race a Grand Tour. “It’s looking more likely that it will be the Vuelta [Tour of Spain]. The Tour de France is obviously the big one but it might take a few years to build up to that. “We’re a World Tour team so automatically get a start in the three Grand Tours. We have nine riders in each and there’s 27 on our team and I’ll put my hand up to do one of them and think the Vuelta is most likely but you never know, anything is possible. “Hopefully, I can get on a squad for one of those next year.” Affectionately known as Big Horse for his formidable

workrate, Clarke admitted he doubted whether he would return to a World Tour stable. “Having raced in big teams a couple of times before I did wonder. But my best results have been in smaller teams when I’ve had a more free role and this has been my best year results-wise. Hopefully I can continue to do well.” Like fellow Tasmanian Richie Porte, who will spearhead BMC’s Tour team, Clarke began cycling with Andrew Christie-Johnston’s Tasmanian-based Praties team in 2008. He joined the Schleck brothers’ Leopard Trek in 2011, riding alongside the likes of Stuart O’Grady, Jens Voigt and Fabian Cancellara, dropped down to pro-continental level for a couple of seasons before another World Tour contract with Argos Shimano in 2013, supporting the likes of Marcel Kittel and John Degenkolb. He has since spent three years at Drapac which is merging with Cannondale to become a World Tour outfit. Asked if he had a point to prove at the top level, Clarke said: “I think so. I think I can still achieve a few

more things. I don’t think I’m past it yet even though I’m nearly 32. I had my best year this year so feel I can still improve.” The former Launceston Church Grammar School student’s five wins equalled Caleb Ewan for the most by an Australian in 2016.

He took out stage wins in the Herald-Sun Tour, Tour of Taiwan (two) plus the tours of Austria and Portugal. Clarke said the 18 riders on his team knew that owner Michael Drapac had a dream to get into the Tour de France so aspired to join the World Tour. “Everyone knew fairly early about the merger so had ample time to either figure out that if they wanted to join they had to lift their game or look at opportunities outside of cycling. “I had some good results early on in the year and when I got a few more wins I knew I had probably done enough to get over the line. “I spent the year attempting to accumulate enough decent results to justify being retained and it was probably about July time I started to feel confident I had done enough. “In cycling there is always

something going on with teams and everyone is affected in some way, you’ve just got to make the most of your opportunities and do the best you can.” Ultimately, only Clarke, Victorian Brendan Canty and Tom Scully, of New Zealand, were signed up by the new Cannondale-Drapac team, as two fellow Tasmanians were squeezed out. Legana’s Bernie Sulzberger made the call to end his distinguished cycling career while Hobart’s Nathan Earle was left seeking alternative employment and will ride for a new team at road nationals in January. The Ballarat championship will also represent Clarke’s first appointment in new colours. “I will start up with the national road race then Tour Down Under and Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race then my sister [Elle] is getting married back here in February. After that I will head over to Europe and my first race is in France.” Clarke is trying to get a visa to live in Spain with his American-Australian team based in Girona in the region of Catalonia. Having contested such classics as the Tour of Flanders, Paris-Roubaix and Liège-Bastogne-Liège in 2013, Clarke is excited about returning to the top table.

However, his major World Tour win came for the Australian national team, when he orchestrated a Tour Down Under stage breakaway in 2012, and he said bigger teams does not always mean better results. “Being on bigger teams sometimes you get shuffled down in the pecking order so I may have to work for others but Cannondale like to give riders a chance to go for themselves so I should still be able to go for results.” Clarke’s final commitment in the distinctive red of Drapac will be the Tasmanian Christmas criterium series where he will be defending his crown on home soil. The series begins at Westbury at 6.15pm on Boxing Day, continues at Ulverstone at noon on Thursday, December 29, and concludes at Burnie at 6.15pm on New Year’s Eve. “I won the series last year and it’ll be good to go back and see where my form is for the upcoming summer and sharpen up,” he said. “They are very short, just 30 to 40 kilometres, so are done in about 40 or 50 minutes. In contrast, big tours can be six hours in a day and potentially for three weeks which is obviously a bit different, but it’s good intensity. “Plus it’s always good to ride in Tasmania where I started racing.”

Bigger boats fancied for Hobart handicap SYDNEY TO HOBART

WINNER: Balance on the way to its handicap victory in last year’s race. Picture: AAP

ROCK star sailors usually grab line honours glory in the Sydney to Hobart, but the amateurs will be looking to trump the well-paid pros in this year’s handicap battle. Predicting the likely handicap winner is a notoriously tough task. The Tattersall’s Cup bat-

tle for overall supremacy invariably throws up the best and most heartwarming storylines. Two years ago, the 43foot Wild Rose skippered by race stalwart Roger Hickman scored a well-received win. Last year, the 34-foot Quickpoint Azzruro purchased on a credit card by Shane Kearns, looked cer-

tain to record an unlikely win until it was becalmed on the Derwent, handing victory to Paul Clitheroe’s TP 52 Balance. No boat has won overall honours in back-to-back years since Freya in 196364-65. Clitheroe said it was highly unlikely his boat would end that run and Balance would have her

work cut out just beating the eight other TP 52s, especially Matt Allen’s boat. Both Allen and Clitheroe believe the smaller boats won’t get a look in this year, with both tipping the winner to come from the 50 to 80 foot range. Clitheroe likes the look of Rupert Henry’s JV62 Chinese Whisper, which ﬁnished ﬁfth overall last year.

Scallywag is Wild Oats XI’s biggest challenger SYDNEY TO HOBART HONG Kong-owned super maxi Scallywag has emerged as the biggest danger to Wild Oats XI’s chances of conquering the Sydney to Hobart for a ninth time. Since narrowly avoiding disaster in the Big Boat Challenge two weeks ago, skipper David Witt said his crew was primed to challenge Wild Oats XI for line honours following a “perfect” weather forecast. Boxing Day will again see the legendary Sydney to Hobart race kick off with forecasts suggesting there will be a chance to break the line honours record. Scallywag’s race was almost over before it began when a poorly positioned NSW Roads and Maritime Services boat, supposed to be patrolling trafﬁc on Sydney Harbour, came within centimetres of tearing a hole in Scallywag’s imposing hull. Witt miraculously kept his boat safe when a collision looked inevitable, and

last year’s Sydney to Hobart runners-up avoided disaster. Now he and new owner Seng Huang Lee, who bought the boat formerly known as Ragamuffin 100 from Syd Fischer, have turned their attention towards Boxing Day where the fleet will be greeted by a gusty northeasterly wind before a southerly change blows in around midnight. “If I had to design one [a weather forecast], I’d write that,” Witt said. “It’s one that’s going to put the race record in serious jeopardy. It’ll be a good race this one, it won’t be like last year’s. “(The start) will be quick and then the (southerly) change, but the change seems to be getting smaller and smaller now. “History tells you Oats are going to win right. I don’t think CQS can, I think they’ll get dropped off the back pretty quick and I think the light air won’t help Loyal, they were looking really good three days ago. I think it’s us or Oats.” BEST BET: Scallywag, formerly known as Ragamuffin 100, is the biggest threat to Wild Oats XI. Picture: AAP

Cahalan was far from the first female to do the race when she tackled it for the first time 32 years ago. “There were many women there before me and when first I did the race in 1984,’ Cahalan said. ‘There was a girl on Windward Paasage and I looked at her and felt ‘wow’.

to 25, she could be joined by several more in the next few years, “There’s a lot of women now coming through in the teens and 20s, so you’ll see the ﬂoodgates are open,” Cahalan said. However, her imminent milestone is just halfway to the male race record of Tony Cable, who this year will contest it for the 51st time. Among the women competing this year is 2012 470 Olympic gold and 2016 sliver medallist Jo Aleh, who is using the race on new supermaxi CQS to prepare for a possible place in the 2017-18 Volvo Ocean Race.

Festive feast of speedway SPEEDWAY BY ALLAN ROARK

ALL Christmases really have come at once for race fans on the north west coast as they check their super-sized stocking and find a massive night of action, December 27, at Latrobe speedway. The programme features a huge double header with both sprintcars and super sedans headlining the racing, and it all comes to an end with an eve of destruction, last car running demolition derby. The massive 15-car sprintcar field will be brilliant to watch and there was plenty of excitement last time Chris Johns took the win at this track. He started from midfield, drove aggressively and battled his way to the front. Kurt Luttrell, Mark House and both Adrian and Jason Redpath are always fast here, however, and all want to win. Fourteen super sedans have entered and are all

chasing current Australian Champion Callum Harper. Last weekend, Brad Smith and Harper competed in Late Models in Victoria and it

was Smith who took victory. He will need to fend off challenges from Adam Beechey, Jason McPherson, Dave Nicholls and sever-

al others. The 21 street stocks entered will have plenty of split heats before it’s all in for the final.

Corey Bauld is keen to return to the top step on the podium, whilst Dale Riley Jr, John Riley and a host of others will be vying for victory.

Seven speedcars will line up, and crews have been working hard to get this great category of racing established in Tasmania. A field of 16 Formula 500s will provide awesome racing, so expect a massive battle between Ben Shadbolt, Dylan Beveridge, Kristian Kelly and Ricky Weatherill. But it’s the massive list of more than 40 speedway karts that will kick things off from 4pm with racing in three classes. Australian Junior champion Jac Laneyrie has confirmed he will be racing this meeting ahead of the state titles early next month, and will definitely be worth watching. For all teams, apart from the speedcars, the challenge will be getting their cars ready after racing hard the previous night at Carrick. Racing on the main track starts at 6pm and and it all ends with a bang with the last car in the demolition derby taking the spoils of victory.

Tasmania’s age-old Christmas traditions WHEN the fans started filing into the venues for the first modern Olympics in Athens 120 years ago, Tasmanians had already flocked to 12 editions of the Burnie Carnival. Down the highway at Latrobe, they were also in on the act – sending them on their way in the first Latrobe wheel within months of those first celebrations in the Greek capital. Edwin Flack could have prepared for his double gold success over 800 and 1500 metres by running in any of the first six Burnie miles – still a much prized event 17 years into the 21st century. All perhaps a little perspective on just how precious the Tasmanian Christmas Carnivals tradition is. Only the middle years of the Second World War have thwarted the dedication of the Burnie Athletic Club’s committee and of their colleagues at the Latrobe Bicycle Race Club. Just as the greatness of the Olympic Games has been tested, there have been challenges for the Tassie treasures but they have survived – and the general buzz around is that they are enjoying a revival. New Year’s Day will present the 130th birthday carnival for Burnie and its refreshed committee are well on the way to delivering a great show. With few other opportunities around Australia nowadays for high quality track cycling to flourish and the demise of the domestic track and field circuit nationally as from this season, there is little surprise that

many cyclists, athletes and their coaches are looking to Tasmania over the festive period to prepare, perform and be rewarded. They have worked out that even without television coverage, social media has provided the platform for talented and savvy sportspeople to tell the world about their achievements. And

what a better way to do that than to link with something that’s older than the Olympic Games. This will be good seriously good sport to watch, commencing at Latrobe tomorrow, then the following day at the Silverdome in Launceston and the two nights at the Devonport Oval before starting 2017 off with a celebra-

tion of Burnie’s milestone. And as they say, there’s more – with a handy little program of criterium racing across the north of the state, starting this afternoon at Westbury. The carnivals are of course not simply about running and riding with each also featuring that cherished Tasmanian tradition of wood chopping.

For sure there are other places around the country and overseas that embrace the artform, but it's home is here. Few sporting moments around the world each year spellbind their attending crowds quite like the centre arena tree-felling at Burnie. As we age, not every birthday is welcome, but this one surely is.

THE Hobart Hurricanes are prepared for back-toback matches against Adelaide Strikers. The Canes will take on the hosts at Gliderol Stadium on Monday and Tuesday as they look to extend their three win and one loss Women’s Big Bash League record. Sasha Moloney has been ruled out due to a knee injury and Irishwoman Isobel Joyce has called on to fill the void for unavailable international Amy Satterthwaite. Julie Hunter will also play her first match of the season. “The Strikers are currently at number three on the ladder and have started to hit some good batting form particularly after promoting New Zealand international Sophie Devine up to four,” Hobart coach Julia Price. “Sasha Moloney will be missed with her explosive fielding but we are hoping to have her back in the lineup for our home games in January after what we hope is a quick recovery from her injury.” – COREY MARTIN
