HARDWICK, SCOTT BACK SHORTER AFL GAMES Page

KURT COBAIN EXHIBITION

remiership-winning coaches Damien Hardwick and Chris Scott have backed the concept that shorter is better when it comes to AFL matches. It is among the many topics being considered by the AFL’s new competitions committee as they examine

the state of the game. AFL Player Association president Patrick Dangerfield reckons matches run on for too long, an opinion backed by both his club coach at Geelong and Richmond mentor Hardwick. “You only have to look at how it ... continued page 62 >>

Turnbull ‘Would Love’ to see Facebook Boss << cont. from front page... Senior members of the federal parliament’s powerful intelligence committee want the 34-yearold Facebook tsar to answer questions about the controversial data deal. “I would welcome Facebook coming and testifying before our parliamentary committee,” the prime minister told reporters recently. “Of course, we’d love to see the boss, naturally, he is the founder.” Labor MP Anthony Byrne, deputy chair of the joint intelligence and security committee, said Mr Zuckerberg owed Australia’s 15 million Facebook users some answers. “It is completely unacceptable that information from Facebook users has been slyly handed over to Huawei by Facebook,” Mr Byrne said. “I want to know why Mr Zuckerberg allowed this to happen. Mr Bryne said if needed, the billionaire would be invited to explain himself to Australians in a public hearing. He has the support of Liberal committee chairman Andrew Hastie. Liberal frontbencher Zed Seselja said companies must not put profits ahead of protecting its users’ data. “Where companies look to do deals, where they give away personal information, where they sell personal information, obviously they need to be held accountable for that,” he told Sky News. “I think Australians who are using Facebook and other social media would hope that some of their data can be

protected, so Facebook has a responsibility to do that.” Greens leader Richard Di Natale said the problem is broader than Facebook. He wants the federal parliament to legislate tougher Europeanstyle protections for Australians’ data. “We need laws in this country that make sure that information which is private is kept private,” Senator Di Natale told Sky News. Labor’s Jenny McAllister said the data deal raises issues about how Facebook operates, adding the company had been “quite negligent” in describing to consumers what was happening to their data.

Jarryd Hayne’s rape trial set for 2020

ustralian rugby league star Jarryd Hayne’s civil rape trial in California will not be held until 2020. US District Court Judge Lucy Koh set the schedule for the proceedings during a hearing in San Jose, near San Francisco, recently. Hayne and the woman did not attend. Judge Koh set a five-day trial for January 27, 2020. The woman, named in court documents as JV, alleges she was a virgin and heavily intoxicated when she met Hayne through mutual friends at a San Jose bar

in 2015 while he was playing for the San Francisco 49ers’ NFL team. She alleges they had “minimal interaction” at the bar, but caught an Uber to his apartment where he sexually assaulted her. Hayne claimed she “willingly engaged in sexual interaction that did not include sexual intercourse”. JV is seeking “monetary damages”, although the amount has yet to be disclosed. San Jose police, after undertaking their investigation, declined to charge Hayne.

‘I won’t stop suing Google’, Vic man vows

ilorad “Michael” Trkulja won’t stop suing Google until they remove his name and photos from the internet. The Melbourne man has won his High Court battle to sue the search engine for defamation over images and search results that link him to the Melbourne criminal underworld. Mr Trkulja, who was shot in the back in a Melbourne restaurant in 2004, successfully argued in the Victorian Supreme Court in 2012 that Google defamed him by publishing photos of him linked to hardened criminals of Melbourne’s underworld. Four years later the Victorian Court of Appeal overturned the decision, finding the case had no prospect of successfully proving defamation. The High Court disputed that ruling in a judgment on Wednesday and ordered Google pay Mr Trkulja’s legal costs. Mr Trkulja says he’ll continue the legal action until he gets the result

he wants, fearful someone will see the images and tell his grandchildren he’s a hardened criminal. “I will sue Google ... and I will sue them ‘til they stop. I want them to block my pictures,” he told AAP. “I’m not a criminal, I’ve never been involved and I will make sure these people are not going to ruin my family - I have grandchildren.” Google searches for “Melbourne criminal

underworld photos” bring up images of Mr Trkulja alongside gangland figures Mick Gatto, Carl Williams, Chopper Reid, Mario Condello and Mark and Jason Moran, his lawyer Guy Reynolds told the High Court in March. However, Google’s lawyers argued it would be “irrational” for someone to assume photos in a Google image search for underworld figures are all of criminals, because the same search would also bring up the Google logo, movie posters, images of

crime victims and photos of actor Marlon Brando. In a unanimous judgment led by Chief Justice Susan Keifel, the court said it was to be assumed someone searching for members of the Melbourne criminal underworld would “rationally suppose” the people whose pictures or names appeared, or at least some of them, were members of such. The court found while it was clear some pictured, like Brando, were not criminals, it could be concluded someone who is relatively unknown like Mr Trkulja may be connected with criminality or the underworld. Mr Trkulja also claimed defamation around Google’s “autocomplete” options for his name, which have included phrases like “is a former hit man”, “criminal” and “underworld”. However, the court heard autocomplete is an automated function and that previous searches influence future suggestions. Comment is being sought from Google.

ustralians will welcome Prince Harry and his new bride Meghan to Australia in October with great warmth and excitement, the prime minister says. Kensington Palace has announced the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who married recently, will travel to Sydney for the 2018 Invictus Games - a Paralympics style event for defence veterans - of which Prince Harry is patron. It hasn’t been revealed if they will travel elsewhere in Australia, but their overseas tour will also include New Zealand, Fiji and Tonga. Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said Australians would be excited about the visit, and the couple could expect a very warm welcome. “As the founder of the Invictus Games, The Duke of Sussex has become a champion for war veterans around the world, including in Australia,” he said in a statement.

en Ainsworth isn’t much of a punter but the 94-year-old took a gamble a long time ago when he swapped manufacturing dental supplies for pokie machines. It paid off. The now-billionaire founded Sydney-based Aristocrat Leisure, which has since grown into the second-largest gaming machine company in the world. He then exited Artistocrat and established Ainsworth Game Technology, where he remains as chairman. On Monday, the 94-year-old was appointed a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) for his service to business and manufacturing and philanthropic contributions. His business success brought wealth that has enabled large donations, particularly in support of hospitals. It also emanates from an industry that has been criticised for its impact on problem gamblers - criticism

Mr Ainsworth rejects. Australia has almost 200,000 poker machines roughly one for every 120 people - and their effects have been under recent scrutiny in political circles, such as during the Tasmanian election in March, and in business, where major pokie owner Woolworths was lobbied at its annual general meeting last November. Mr Ainsworth dismisses suggestions that poker machines have caused widespread suffering and says 95 per cent of people who play the pokies do so for enjoyment without spending more than they should. “It is a very small percentage of people who have very addictive personalities,” he told AAP. “You cannot run the economy

of the country for the sake of some small minority who think they have got particular rights or whatever.” The gaming tycoon described his appointment to the Order of Australia as an honour and said it was a privilege to be involved in philanthropic efforts, which have included multi-million dollar donations to Sydney Children’s Hospital and St Vincent’s Private Hospital. “It is my pleasure to do those things and I am very glad that I can,” he said.

He said the underlying reasons behind why the kids have their tonsils and adenoids removed in the first place could be responsible for the increased risk of other illnesses. “Fortunately, in recent decades the pendulum has swung right away from unnecessary tonsillectomies or adenoidectomies. It’s relatively uncommon to see a child who’s had one nowadays without there being a good indication,” Dr Loblay said.

Dreamworld ride had other ‘incidents’ A Dreamworld ride that malfunctioned and caused the death of four guests had a history of malfunctions, including two breakdowns on the day of the tragedy. On the opening day of an inquest into the October 25, 2016 tragedy, a packed Southport Coroners Court several earlier incidents had occurred on the Thunder River Rapids ride. Lead police investigator Detective Sergeant Nicola Brown said the water pump on the family-friendly ride at the Gold Coast theme park stopped working twice in the hours leading up to the fatal incident. Det Sgt Brown told the inquest the pump failed at 11.50am and then again at 1.09pm before being reset by engineers. The tragedy which took the lives of Cindy Low, Kate Goodchild, her brother Luke Dorsett and his partner Roozi Araghi occurred just after 2pm. Counsel assisting Ken Fleming QC earlier revealed one previous incident on the ride, in January 2001, had resulted in several

empty rafts colliding at the unloading point of the ride. “I shudder when I think if there had been guests on that ride,” said Mr Fleming, quoting an email between Dreamworld staff after the 2001 incident. The incident was disturbingly similar to the one that resulted in the four deaths in 2016 when the water pump stopped working, causing water levels to drop below the railing where the rafts sat. When the raft containing the four victims as well as two children collided with another raft, it flipped over and dropped the guests into the conveyor system. All four victims were killed instantly from compressive and crushing injuries. Ms Goodchild’s 12-year-old daughter and Ms Low’s 10-yearold son survived the incident. Mr Fleming said the tragedy had been “felt Australia-wide” and the main aim of the inquest was to prevent any similar tragedies from happening again. The families have sought

answers and relatives of Ms Low have said how they hoped the probe would prevent others from suffering “such enormous heartbreak”.

Dreamworld suffered steep falls in visitor numbers following the fatal accident and the park’s subsequent 45-day shutdown. The inquest continues.

Busboy Who Held Dying RFK Speaks of Pain J

uan Romero was a teenage Mexican immigrant working in the US as a hotel busboy 50 years ago when he was thrust into one of the seminal moments of the decade. Romero had just stopped to shake the hand of Robert F Kennedy on the night of his victory in the California presidential primary on June 5, 1968 when a gunman shot the New York senator in the head. Romero held a wounded Kennedy as he lay on the ground, struggling to keep the senator’s bleeding head from hitting the cold floor of the Ambassador Hotel kitchen. For almost a half-century, Romero blamed himself, wondering if he could have done more and often asked, what if Kennedy hadn’t stopped for that brief moment to shake my hand? Today, nearly 50 years after that tragic event, the 67-year-old Romero made himself available for the Netflix documentary Bobby Kennedy for President, ELECTRIC

through the hotel kitchen and meet with reporters waiting on the other side. In the kitchen, Kennedy waved to kitchen staff. Then, he saw Romero. Did he remember him from the day before? Romero stuck out his hand and Kennedy stopped to shake it. During that brief pause, a man ran toward Kennedy and opened fire. Several men jumped on the gunman. Romero ran to Kennedy. News photographers captured pictures of Romero next to the bloodied Kennedy - images that would be seen all over the world. “Is everybody OK?” Kennedy asked. Yes, he said. “Everything will be OK,” Kennedy said before losing consciousness. Romero put a rosary in Kennedy’s hand. Wife Ethel Kennedy - at the time pregnant with their 11th child - ran to her injured husband and pushed Romero away.

Frenchman attempts swim across Pacific

Frenchman embarked on a 9,000-kilometre journey from Japan to the US west coast, hoping to become the first person to swim across the Pacific Ocean. Ben Lecomte dived into the water off the coast of Choshi, east of Tokyo, on Tuesday morning, planning to reach San Francisco in six months’ time in an attempt to raise awareness about the ocean’s health. “More than six years of preparations have lead to this moment. Finally really to start my swim across the Pacific Ocean,”

the 51-year-old wrote on Twitter. A live-stream of his departure was posted on Facebook. Lecomte is planning to swim for eight hours a day, aiming to advance 65 km each day, accompanied by a support sailing boat and his six crew members. “I’m not an Olympic swimmer, but I am an adventurer in the way that I push my limits,” said Lecomte, who became the first person to swim across the Atlantic in 1998, in just 73 days. The team, working with 12 scientific institutions, including NASA and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, will conduct oceanic and medical research throughout the journey. “I want as many people as possible to understand that each one of us has to take action, because the ocean is in peril right now, and if we don’t change anything, it’s going to be even worse in a few years,” Lecomte said in an interview with GQ.

ASTEROID BREAKS UP OVER AFRICA

boulder-size asteroid disintegrated harmlessly over Africa, just hours after its weekend discovery, scientists have said. It’s only the third time scientists have spotted an incoming asteroid on a direct collision course with Earth. The previous times were in 2008 and 2014. The asteroid, dubbed 2018 LA, was discovered out near the moon’s orbit early Saturday morning, aiming straight for Earth. NASA reported the latest episode Sunday night. Asteroid trackers at NASA and elsewhere quickly determined the rock - one to two metre across - was too small to pose any danger. It burned up in the Saturday evening sky over Botswana, eight hours after first being noticed. Video posted on YouTube, from a farm just across the border in South Africa, showed a fireball swiftly descending and getting bigger, and then

a blinding flash in the sky. It burst apart several miles up, according to NASA. Initial estimates had the impact zone stretching from southern Africa across the Indian Ocean into New Guinea. Tracking systems narrowed it down to southern Africa. NASA officials said the scramble among scientists and asteroid observers was a good training exercise. Their ability to zoom in on likely impact areas bodes well for the future, if and when a bigger object heads our way. “This was a much smaller object than we are tasked to detect and warn about,” NASA’s planetary defense officer, Lindley Johnson, said in a statement. “However, this real-world event allows us to exercise our capabilities and gives some confidence our impact prediction models are adequate to respond to the potential impact of a larger object.”

A push to put a mask

on this flu season A push to protect people against the flu with a “weak” vaccine is overshadowing effective prevention methods such as hand-washing and mask-wearing, warns a public health expert. Dr Chris Del Mar, Professor of Public Health at Bond University has challenged the value of influenza vaccinations while speaking at the GPs Down Under Conference on the Gold Coast. He claims the influenza vaccine has been “oversold” in Australia and said hand-washing and maskwearing should be the focus of flu prevention campaigns. Prof Del Mar pointed to a review that found seasonal flu vaccines only reduced the rate of laboratory confirmed influenza cases by between one to two per cent. “Influenza is indeed a true threat to public health and I am not a vaccine sceptic in general, but annual influenza vaccinations do little to protect against serious illness,” Prof Del Mar told AAP. “My viewing of the evidence is that the amount of benefit for influenza vaccine is very, very weak and it makes me think that this is not a great use of our effort in trying to immunise large swathes of the population when there are other opportunities that my be more effective,” he said. Simple hygiene methods such as handwashing, face masks

and quarantine should not be forgotten, Prof Del Mar said. “Perhaps we should be encouraging people to wear masks much more often than is socially acceptable in Australia but is socially acceptable in places like Japan and other parts of East Asia,” He also wants to see the sterilisation of public places, such as buses and trains. Dr Tony Bartone, President of the Australian Medical Association said health authorities have never shied away from the fact the influenza vaccine is not as effective as a number of other vaccines. An ineffective vaccine was partly to blame for last year’s “horror” flu season, he said. “The effectiveness in our elderly population was probably as low as 30 per cent or even less,” Dr Bartone said. He also agreed hand-washing was critical against controlling the spread of influenza. “The best way not to catch something is avoid it,” he said. He said this year’s vaccine promises to be much more effective. “We must not overlook the effectiveness and importance of influenza vaccination as part of a generalised strategy to control the spread of a significant disease that has the potential to kill,” Dr Bartone said.

ON THE CANNABIS TRAIL IN HOLLYWOOD R

ecreational marijuana sales became legal in California this year, and the industry is targeting tourists as well as locals, with tours, shops, lodging and ads. “Just seconds from LAX,” says an ad for the MedMen chain . Yep, there are chains of marijuana stores here. And there are cannabis bus tours, too, like Green Line Trips , with stops at local pot dispensaries along with stops at attractions like Griffith Park. You can even smoke on the bus. (Funny thing about online reviews for Green Line and other tours: They’re really, really positive, as in “the best,” “coolest,” “hella” and “man, o man”.) MedMen, one of several marijuana dispensaries in West Hollywood, scores 4.8 stars on weedmaps.com. At busy times, there are lines to get in, and you’ll have to show ID proving you’re 21 or over. But once inside, it’s head shop meets Apple store. The air smells like pot. Tables display weed, oils, cookies and breath mints, along with iPads to swipe for details on different marijuana plants. The descriptions sound like wine: “good pungent nose” and “some will be piney”. Shelves and hooks display vapour pens, balms, tinctures, lollies. Refrigerators are filled with drinks and frozen pot food like cannabis-infused churros. The sales staff wear red T-shirts saying “Shop. It’s legal”. Their personal styles range from green hair to grey, dreadlocks to buzz cuts, some with tattoos and body piercings and some without. But they seem to have one thing in common: They’re very mellow. “This is the best job I’ve ever had,” said Richard Horn, 26, as he gave me a tour of the store. Horn said there are two types of products, those with THC, the

mind-altering ingredient that makes you high, and those with CBD, which has no cognitive effects but is sold to treat anxiety, relieve pain and enhance sexual pleasure.

remains illegal under federal law.) Many customers leave with whole bags of pot products, but tourists face consumption challenges. The law prohibits smoking, vaporising or ingesting cannabis products in public or anywhere tobacco is banned - which in California, includes restaurants, bars, parks and beaches. Most big chain hotels in California are smoke-free, too, which may leave visitors back where they were before legalisation: looking for a place to smoke. San Francisco has opened “consumption lounges” where smoking is permitted, and there’s been talk of opening similar lounges in West Hollywood. For now, though, the best option for tourists looking to smoke may be to book lodging and home rentals that allow it. Often these are euphemistically advertised online as “420-friendly”, a reference to April 20, the unofficial holiday for weed-smokers. KushTourism.com lists tours as well as marijuanafriendly resorts and other

accommodations in weed-legal states. But what do you do with pot leftovers when it’s time to go home? You’re not supposed to take marijuana on planes or across state lines, since it’s illegal under federal law. That goes for CBD “apothecary” products, too, like the balms and oils that don’t get you high and which are legal for medical purposes in a handful of states. Las Vegas and a couple of Colorado airports have installed “amnesty boxes” where travellers can dispose of drugs before going through security, but California airports don’t have them yet. Transportation Security Administration agents are focused on security threats, not marijuana, according to agency spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein. If they happen to find marijuana in baggage during routine screenings, TSA refers the incident to local law enforcement at the airport, and they decide how to handle it, Farbstein said. But a traveller stopped by TSA with a legal amount of marijuana in California would not be charged because possession there is not a crime. At the end of my MedMen tour, I ask one shopper if I might speak to her about pot shopping. Even though it’s legal, she wouldn’t talk, she said, because her daughter is a cop. Old habits die hard. I asked another well-dressed woman why she came to MedMen and she looked at me quizzically. “I ran out of pot,” said Bari Bogart, 62. “Medicinal or recreational?” I asked. She laughed. “Are you kidding?” Oh, right. Nobody has to pretend anymore.

BARNABY JOYCE’S BOOK DUE IN AUGUST Oldest footprints on earth found in China

arnaby Joyce has pleaded for privacy but he’ll soon have a political memoir out after already taking $150,000 for a tell-all TV interview. Weatherboard & Iron: Politics, The Bush And Me is due out in August and the publishers promise it will surprise readers. The former Nationals leader quit as deputy prime minister after it was revealed he was having a baby with his stafferturned-partner Vikki Campion. “Joyce not only provides a context to this calamitous series of events but also offers an insight into the inner workings of politics and the media in this country,” New Holland Publishers said. “Coming so quickly after his public stoush with actor Johnny Depp, the High Court ruling that he was a dual citizen and his stunning victory in the subsequent by-election in the NSW seat of New England, Joyce was rarely far from

the front pages of national and international news media.” The publishers promise the book will reveal what drove Mr Joyce during his career - “a career that is far from being over”. Mr Joyce recently called for changes to privacy laws after doing a $150,000 tell-all TV interview with Ms Campion. He also accused a photographer of hiding in the bushes outside a church to harass him. “Private individuals, kids especially, should have greater protections than what they’ve got. They haven’t got any,” Mr Joyce said. He said the couple did the infamous interview in the hope it would be a “circuit-breaker” which would end the intense scrutiny on their private lives. Mr Joyce declared the book deal on his parliamentary interests register. The former deputy prime minister is on two weeks of sick leave, but he has found time to campaign against laws preventing harassment of women outside abortion clinics.

Melania ‘hates’ to see families separated

S First Lady Melania Trump says she “hates” to see families separated at the border and hopes “both sides of the aisle” can reform US immigration laws. The comments, released in a statement recently, come as controversy simmers over the separation of immigrant parents and children on the US-Mexico border but her remarks did not refer specifically to her husband’s administration’s “zero tolerance” policy. The tough stance has led to a spike in the numbers of children being separated from their families, with US government statistics indicating nearly 2,000

children were separated from their families over a six-week period in April and May. A spokeswoman for the wife of US President Donald Trump issued the statement after several days of images of crying children appearing on television and online. “Mrs Trump hates to see children separated from their families and hopes both sides of the aisle can finally come together to achieve successful immigration reform,” Stephanie Grisham said. “She believes we need to be a country that follows all laws, but also a country that governs with heart.” While the statement suggested the matter was an issue for Congress, Democratic lawmakers and others have pointed out that no law mandates the separation of children and parents at the border. A new Trump administration policy, which went into effect in May, sought to maximise criminal prosecutions of people caught trying to enter the US illegally.

More adults were being jailed as a result, which has led to their children being separated from them. Trump said recently, “I hate the children being taken away,” but he also falsely blamed Democrats for a law requiring it. In an effort to rebut criticism of the administration, Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen repeated in a tweet the department’s view: “We do not have a policy of separating families at the border. Period.” In a separate tweet, she accused the news media and others of misreporting the issue and called on those seeking asylum to do so at ports of entry rather than crossing illegally. “This misreporting by Members, press & advocacy groups must stop. It is irresponsible and unproductive. As I have said many times before, if you are seeking asylum for your family, there is no reason to break the law and illegally cross between ports of entry,” Nielsen wrote.

Has Basketball Saved the World? Dennis Rodman weeps as Trump and Kim meet

ormer NBA star Dennis Rodman openly wept on television in a live interview from Singapore as President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un met for the first time. The eccentric former reality television star is one of the few westerners to have spent time with Kim during multiple visits to Pyongyang and the two struck up an unlikely friendship over their shared love of basketball. Rodman also goes back years with Trump and appeared on his Celebrity Apprentice show. In an emotional interview with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, Rodman, wearing sunglasses and a “Make America Great Again” hat, said he had received a call from the White House ahead of Trump’s historic meeting with Kim - the first between a sitting president and North Korean leader. “Yes, Donald Trump reached out,” Rodman said, telling Cuomo he’d received a call from a person he described as Trump’s secretary. “She called me and said, ‘Dennis, Donald Trump is so proud of you. He thanks you a lot.’ And that means a lot,” said Rodman. He added that he suspected he “somewhat had something to do with this North Korean situation.” The White House did not immediately respond to questions about the call. Rodman grew emotional in the interview as he recalled former President Barack Obama failing to take him seriously when he returned from Pyongyang with a message from Kim after one of his trips. Rodman said Obama “just brushed me off” and “didn’t even give me the time of day.”

In this Jan. 8, 2014 photo provided by the North Korean government, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, left, talks with former NBA player Dennis Rodman, right, as they watch an exhibition basketball game at an indoor stadium in Pyongyang. He expressed hope that Trump and Kim would be able to make progress. “We don’t need a miracle. We just need the doors to be opened so we can start fresh,” he said, telling Cuomo, “it’s a great day” and exclaiming: “I’m so happy!” Asked to describe Kim, Rodman said the autocratic leader was “like a big kid” who wants to have a good time, but is “trying to protect his people” and his honour. “This guy wants to be around the world. He wants to come to America. He wants to enjoy his life. He wants his people to enjoy this life,” said Rodman, adding that Kim is “not a dumb man”. White House officials have said that Rodman would play no official role in the diplomatic negotiations. Last week, Trump told reporters that Rodman had not been invited to the summit, but praised him as

a “nice guy” and great rebounder. Rodman told reporters at Changi airport that he’d travelled to Singapore “to see what’s going on” and that he hoped “that things turn out to be well for everyone in the world.” Asked if he would meet Kim in Singapore, he said he thought the North Korean leader had “bigger things to worry about”, but added that every time he’d met with Kim, it had been a surprise.

APPLE UNVEILS NEW SOFTWARE UPGRADES

pple has unveiled software upgrades that would let older iPhones run faster, help parents limit their children’s screen time and make its Siri voice assistant work more like a rival feature from Amazon.com. Taken together, the moves announced at Apple’s annual Worldwide Developers Conference in San Jose amounted to focusing on reliability and catching up with some competitors. The latest version of Apple’s operating system for the iPhone and iPad, iOS 12, will make older devices such as the iPhone 6 work better. Software chief Craig Federighi said iOS 12 could carry out simple tasks, such as opening

apps, up to twice as fast as its predecessor, iOS 11. The new system will work on a range of products that date back to 2013. As the smartphone industry has matured, consumers have kept devices longer. Apple faced a backlash late last year when it emerged that the company slowed down some older iPhones with flagging batteries. Other new features include parental controls to limit the time children spend in apps, as well as which apps they can use. Earlier this year, shareholders criticised Apple for contributing to computer overuse by children. Apple also rolled out group video chat sessions with up to 32 users, putting it in direct competition with companies

Microsoft building game streaming service

icrosoft is working on a gamestreaming service that will deliver “console quality gaming on any device.” “Gaming is now at its most vibrant,” Phil Spencer, executive president of gaming at Microsoft, announced during Microsoft’s E3 press conference recently. “In this significant moment we are constantly challenging ourselves about where we can take gaming next.” He said that Microsoft is recommitting and harnessing the full breath of the company to deliver on the future of play. That includes experts in Microsoft research working on developing the future of gaming AI and the company’s cloud engineers building a game streaming network. He added that the company is

also in the midst of developing the architecture for the next Xbox consoles. This year’s E3 has been a period surprisingly engrossed in the idea of turning what once was a physical goods, retail driven industry into something more akin to Netflix. Last week, Ubisoft founder Yves Guillemot said that the ability to play games on essentially anything with a display by streaming the game from a server was going to reshape the entire face of gaming. On Saturday, Electronic Arts unveiled just such a service. While still in development, EA said their cloud gaming initiative would allow people to play highend games on mobile phones, on smart TVs and on low-end laptops like Chromebooks. In the lead up to E3, Microsoft’s head of gaming Phil Spencer said that Microsoft was most interested in making sure games play well no matter what sort of device they are playing on, a hint that the company was investing in cloud gaming.

such as Cisco Systems and Microsoft’s Skype. The company broadened the ways that developers can work with Siri, allowing more in-app use. Until Monday, Apple had let developers tap Siri for voice control of only a handful of apps such as PayPal and Uber. Amazon, by contrast, has been much more open in letting developers create custom phrases to control apps with its Alexa assistant. New features help protect users’ anonymity online. The

company said its Safari web browser for both Macs and iPhones will protect users from being tracked without their permission by websites that use “like” or “share” buttons from social media companies. Apple unveiled new steps to make it hard for advertisers to distinguish among users, building on its effort, begun last year, to prevent such tracking.

Amazon unveils handsfree streaming device

lexa for couch potatoes is coming. Amazon’s new streaming TV device will let users shout out when they want to turn on the TV, change channels or search for sitcoms - all without pushing any buttons. The Fire TV Cube is not entirely hands-free yet, however. Some apps or streaming services may require viewers to pick up the included remote to rewind or stop a show. Amazon says it’s working with those services to integrate voice commands. Amazon’s other voice-controlled Fire TV devices require a push of the remote’s mic button or a separate Echo device with Amazon’s Alexa voice assistant. Unlike the other devices, the Cube will let viewers switch between streaming services like Netflix and regular cable channels with such voice commands as “Alexa, turn on ESPN.” The new device can also do typical Alexa tasks, such as playing Jeopardy! or fetching the

weather, even when the TV is off. Amazon sees Alexa as a major part of its future. It has struck deals to put the voice assistant in cars, refrigerators and alarm clocks. Getting people to use Alexa keeps them tied to Amazon’s services and ultimately buying more from the online retailer. The Cube will be available later this month for $US120. Nvidia’s Shield also offers hands-free streaming using Google’s digital assistant. Other devices, including Apple TV, require activation with the remote’s mic.

Calls for kids’ data protection in Australia

ustralia will inevitably need to follow other countries legislating against the collection of data about children from the internet, a data privacy protection expert warns. Dylan Collins, the chairman of the kids’ digital media company TotallyAwesome, believes the internet was designed for adults and many services are struggling to adapt to the extraordinary number of youngsters logging on every day. “Pretty much everything is based around capturing personal data and monetising it in some form,” the Irish entrepreneur told AAP on Thursday. “That’s just not safe or appropriate for six, seven or eight years olds.” In recent years, the US, Europe and China have created socalled “zero-data environments” which prohibit companies from

collecting data on people under a set age - ranging between 13 and 16. “It’s probably inevitable that something similar will come to Australia in the not too distant future,” Mr Collins said. He predicted that over the next five to seven years there will be a universal right for children to have access to the internet without being tracked. Mr Collins’ concerns follow the Cambridge Analytica breach, which highlighted how Facebook data can be turned against internet users for sinister political purposes. But he believes the much bigger concern is what hasn’t been done with data - and what could potentially be done. Mr Collins estimates before a child reaches the age of 13, there are “tens of millions” of pieces of information about them that have been collected and could be used

to build a profile. “You’ve got all of this personal data about children floating around the very dark corners of the internet,” he said. “You can imagine some pretty

nefarious uses this could be used for. “At some point, you’re going to see some sort of 9/11-type event with all of this childrens’ data that has been inadvertently collected.”

Public debate on the subject is more restrained though, with many resigned to the fact that individual rights are subordinated to state interests. Liu Haifeng, vice general manager at Xindehui, a Meiya Pico subsidiary, said he sees surveillance tech as a positive. “It is impossible for people, especially the younger generations, to live without electronics,” he told a roomful of police listening on at the Beijing event. Therefore, suspects trying to escape, “can never get away”.

STAR TREK-STYLE DIAGNOSIS DEVICE SOON

Star Trek-type medical tricorder, diagnosing medical problems at the push of a button, could be a step closer to reality. Researchers at Birmingham’s Aston University have developed a working desktop prototype of a machine which can take readings from blood and human tissue using laser beams. It has been successfully trialled at Ninewells Hospital in Dundee while a portable prototype - with applications beyond medicine - is being worked on. Developers at the Aston Institute of Photonic Technologies (AIPT) said it allows a range of tests to be carried out “quickly and painlessly”. The innovation means the once fanciful idea - depicted in sci-fi

show Star Trek - of doctors using tricorders to effortlessly diagnose a variety of ailments may soon become reality. The machine uses three separate lasers to monitor how effectively blood is delivered to tissue, measure bloodoxygen levels and look at cell metabolism. It works by shining the laser beam on the patient’s skin, while the patient feels nothing. That data is then instantly processed by a computer, and reproduced as a graph. The device has already had practical applications, being used in diagnostic procedures for strokes and skin cancers, and is non-invasive, as no needles are necessary. It can constantly monitor blood delivery above the eyebrows,

helping doctors mitigate the risk of stroke in patients with hypertension. In cancer patients, researchers have said it is a high-precision way of identifying the margins of head and neck skin cancers, which could help reduce the risk of tumours returning. A prototype wearable monitor has been developed that athletes can wear on their wrists. Much of the technology is ready to go into production, and the university recently launched Aston Medical Technology to commercialise inventions.

Daimler also unveiled a medium-duty Freightliner eM2 106, with a range of up to 370 km, designed for local distribution, such as beverage delivery, which some analysts see as the “sweet spot” of the emerging electric truck market. Truckmaker Navistar and its partner Volkswagen aim to launch their own medium-duty truck in North America by late 2019. Daimler, with a $US66.4 billion market capitalisation and bestknown for its luxury MercedesBenz brand, has a 40 per cent share of the roughly $US39 billion North American heavyduty truck market.

“While electric truck sales will be fairly significant in coming years, I don’t think it will displace diesel anytime soon especially in highway, long-haul trucking where obviously battery capacity and range anxiety present itself,” said Tim Denoyer, senior analyst at ACT Research, a commercial vehicle consultancy. Daimler Trucks North America Chief Executive Officer Roger Nielsen said the truck’s payload had been curbed by the size of batteries. Stuttgart-based Daimler will invest more than 2.5 billion euros ($A3.8 billion) in R&D at its truck operations by 2019, with more than 500 million euros earmarked for electric heavy-duty commercial vehicles, connectivity and self-driving technology.

Daimler’s Freightliner eCascadia is an 18-wheeler with a 400 km range, aimed for regional distribution and port services, compared to Tesla’s Semi - expected to be built by 2020 - which it says will be suited to longer-distance runs with a 800 km range. Daimler said it will start delivering prototypes to customers later this year for fieldtesting and expects to have the trucks in production by 2021.

ost Australians want a ban on electronic cigarettes lifted, according to an Australian Retailers Association survey. Conducted by the Crosby Textor Group, the poll shows 61 per cent of 1200 adults backed a move towards legalising e-cigarettes or vaporisers, commonly known as vapes. The Turnbull government should follow the lead of the United States, United Kingdom, Canada and New Zealand by opening up the market, ARA executive director Russell Zimmerman says. “More and more Australians are buying personal vaporisers with nicotine online from overseas, simply because they can’t buy them locally,” Mr Zimmerman said in a statement on Monday. “The government needs to act so that responsible local retailers can compete on a level playing field and sell less harmful products for Australians trying to change their habits.

PAUL HOGAN TO STAR INconic ‘MRAustralian DUNDEE’ FILM actor, Paul

Hogan is to star in upcoming feature film The Very Excellent Mr Dundee, production for which starts next month in Australia, Los Angeles and Vancouver. Hogan recently thrilled and infuriated fans of the Crocodile Dundee film series in which he starred in the 1980s, by appearing in a short film that appeared to be a trailer for a new film in the franchise. But the clip turned out to be a advertisement for Tourism Australia. The Very Excellent Mr Dundee sees Hogan playing himself and on the brink of receiving a Knighthood for services to comedy. “Don’t do anything to mess this up,” his manager tells him. However, despite all his best efforts, the next six weeks sees his name and reputation destroyed.

MISS AMERICA DROPPING SWIMSUIT COMPETITION T

he Miss America Organisation is dropping the swimsuit competition from its nationally televised broadcast, saying it will no longer judge contestants on their appearance. The competition began nearly 100 years ago in Atlantic City, New Jersey as a bathing beauty contest designed to keep tourists coming to the seaside resort in the weekend after Labour Day. But it has run into resistance to the swimsuit, and to a lesser extent, evening gown competitions, that had come by some to be seen as outdated. An email scandal last December in which former Miss America officials denigrated the intelligence, appearance and sex lives of former title winners led to a shakeup at the top, and the group’s top three leadership positions are now held by women. Gretchen Carlson, a former Miss America who is head of the organisation’s board of trustees, made the announcement on Tuesday on “Good Morning America.” “We’re not going to judge you on your

appearance because we are interested in what makes you you,” she said. Carlson, whose sexual harassment lawsuit against Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes led to his departure, said the board has heard from potential contestants saying, “We don’t want to be out there in high heels and swimsuits.” “Guess what?” she said. “You don’t have to anymore.” Asked if she was worried the show’s television ratings might suffer because of the elimination of swimsuits, Carlson said she was not, adding that the swimsuit portion is not the highest rated section of the broadcast. Viewers seem to be more interested in the talent competition, she said. She also said the group would make changes to the evening wear portion of the competition, adding it would not judge women on their chosen attire. “It’s what comes out of their mouths that we care about,” she said. The changes will start with this year’s broadcast on September 9.

Broccoli boost served up in your coffee

eople who don’t fancy eating broccoli can still reap all its health benefits thanks to a special powder version of the muchmaligned vegetable that can even be stirred into coffee. Bunches of broccoli deemed too imperfect looking to be stocked on shop shelves have been ground up and turned into a powder by science agency CSIRO and agriculture group Hort Innovation. Every two tablespoons of powder contains about one serve of broccoli, a vegetable health experts consider a superfood because it’s packed with dozens of nutrients. One Melbourne cafe has started experimenting with the powder by stirring it into coffees. Hort Innovation chief executive John Lloyd says the powder is also ideal to mix into smoothies, soups, and baked goods. “Research shows the average Australian is still not eating the recommended

daily intake of vegetables a day, and options such as broccoli powder will help address this,” he said on

Wednesday. The powder and a range of snacks are being developed as part of a research project

that aims to reduce vegetable waste by creating healthy food products from “ugly” produce. It’s hoped that the powder could help boost the vegetable intake of Australians after a CSIRO survey last year found four out of five adults aren’t eating enough fruit and veg to meet national dietary guidelines. The CSIRO’s lead researcher on the broccoli powder project, Mary Ann Augustin, said the next step is to develop the powder further and test it among a wider group of consumers. “The powders are an option for farmers who want to produce value-added vegetable ingredients for the lucrative functional food markets,” Dr Augustin said. “The CSIRO team and Hort Innovation are discussing potential commercial applications with produce growers and grower groups across Australia who are interested in getting the powder on the market.”

Boost vitamin D levels at home this winter

D intake. Not all milk products contain this essential vitamin, so make sure you’re looking out for fortified varieties. ORDER EGGS AT BRUNCH Dippy eggs and soldiers are more than just homely comfort food - they’re also great for, you guessed it, vitamin D. All the goodness in an egg comes from its yolk, so it’s important to use the whole egg and not just the whites. One egg will give you about 40 IU, which is a brilliant excuse to get stuck into this teatime treat. ADD SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS TO YOUR STIR FRY

ne of the more unenjoyable elements of modern life is that we spend so much time cooped up in offices. While we know this can wreak havoc on your posture (and probably doesn’t do much for your mental wellbeing either), you might have a bigger issue to worry about - vitamin D deficiency. In the year 2011-12 the Australian Bureau of Statistics found one in four Australian adults are deficient in vitamin D, which is essential for keeping teeth and bones healthy, regulating mood and improving resistance against winter bugs. The best source of this vital vitamin is getting out in the sunshine; when the sun’s UVB rays hit our skin, a reaction takes place that enables the

cells to manufacture it. The problem is, all those hours squirrelling away at your keyboard mean many of us rarely see daylight during the colder months. Booking a two-week holiday to the Bahamas would be ideal, but in reality, few of us have the time or money to jet off so close to Christmas. Regardless, now winter’s almost here, it means fewer sunny days, so you need to be extra-vigilant about getting enough of the good stuff. Here’s how to combat bleaker days and up your vitamin D intake during the chill. BAKE SOME FATTY FISH Next time you’re stuck for ideas for a quick and healthy dinner, head to the fish aisle. Salmon, mackerel, herring, trout and kippers are all

brilliant sources of vitamin D that many of us don’t eat often enough. In fact, just half a fillet of salmon has over 1,000 IU of vitamin D, which is more than the daily recommended allowance for a person (according to government advice, we should all be aiming for 1000 IU in the winter months). Fresh fatty fish also supplies iron, zinc, niacin, vitamin B6 and vitamin B12, in addition to a whole host of other nutrients you need for good health.

In a similar way to humans, certain varieties of mushrooms can produce vitamin D when exposed to sunlight. Research has uncovered that shiitake ‘shrooms are the best at mimicking the process. There are thought to be 40 IU in 120 grams of the potent fungi, which might not sound like a huge amount, but when it comes to staying healthy every little bit helps. TAKE A SUPPLEMENT

Let’s face it, we’re all busy people, and one of the easiest ways to win at winter health is GLUG ON A PINT OF to simply take a supplement. FORTIFIED MILK Just don’t snack on them like Got milk? Then get Fruit Pastilles; taking high swigging. According to doses of the vitamin for long research, an 200ml glass of periods of time can lead to whole milk contains at least excessive build up in the 100 IU of vitamin D, a quarter body, so keep a close eye on of your daily optimum vitamin your numbers.

NSW Health warns against ‘mushrooming’

ealth experts are urging residents not to die for fungi after more than two dozen people were hospitalised after eating wild mushrooms across NSW. There have been 38 cases of mushroom-related hospitalisations across NSW in 2018 to date with 27 taking place in autumn, which is peak mushrooming season. “Cooler, wetter weather is making good growing conditions for wild mushrooms,” NSW Health’s Dr Benjamin Scalley said in a statement on Saturday. “But it is difficult for most people to recognise edible from poisonous mushrooms.”

Poisonous varieties can cause severe abdominal pains, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, sweating and confusion - or even death. “Some varieties of mushrooms can be fatal, causing severe kidney and liver damage,” Dr Scalley said. There have been 281 hospitalisations in NSW and the ACT between 2014 and 2017 and almost 900 mushroom-related calls to the poison hotline in the same period. The most dangerous variety of mushroom, the so-called death cap, was spotted growing in Victoria and the ACT earlier this month.

Four people have died in the ACT since 2002 and there have been a number of poisonings associated with the lethal mushrooms.

Experts warn cooking wild mushrooms does not make them safe to eat and people should avoid eating them unless they’re store bought.

Poland to promote its drinking heritage

olish vodka has been drunk by kings and peasants, used as a medicine, and during World War II even served to bribe the occupying Nazi German forces. Now a museum is opening in Warsaw devoted solely to the 500-year history of the Polish national alcoholic beverage. Known in Polish as “wodka” - meaning “little water” - it got its name from the clear liquid that results from the distillation of cereals - traditionally rye, wheat or another grain - or potatoes. The Polish Vodka Museum is an attempt to celebrate this long national tradition and promote one of the country’s best-known exports at a time when sales are flat domestically, with newly affluent Poles often preferring wine. It will open to the public in June in a section of a former 19th century vodka factory that has been revitalised with the help of funds from the European Union.

The CEO of the Polish Vodka Association, Andrzej Szumowski, said he hopes the multimedia exhibition will bring greater recognition to the national drink. He described vodka as an essential component of Poland’s heritage and claimed that Poles were the first to produce it - something he acknowledged was a point of dispute with Russia. “This is part of our DNA, part of our history, heritage and tradition, and there is no other product so global and so recognised,” he said during a presentation for the media. Michal Skotnicki, the president of the board of BBI, one of the developers, noted that many countries have long relied on their local alcohols to develop tourism and said it is “high time” for Poland to do so, too. “It’s a scandal somehow that in Poland we didn’t have a cultural entity showing to the world that vodka

is from Poland,” Skotnicki said. The museum will be open to adults only and concludes with a display on responsible drinking. Visitors can don glasses that create the distorted vision typical for various blood alcohol levels. High-end restaurants and bars designed by a

prominent Warsaw architect, Miroslaw Nizio, are also opening in the complex. They incorporate original elements of the 19th century factory into a modern industrial design space. Old oak vodka barrels have also been used to create floors and bar counters.

Tabasco celebrates 150 at its birthplace

ne of the world’s most famous condiments, Tabasco, celebrates its 150th birthday this year. Edmund McIlhenny created the famous pepper sauce in 1868 on Avery Island, Louisiana. The company is still headquartered there, and it is still run by McIlhenny’s descendants. But whether or not you’re one of those pepper fiends who shakes Tabasco on everything from eggs to burgers, Avery Island is a fun destination with a neat history. Tour the Tabasco museum and factory, try free samples of Tabasco-infused goodies, dine on Cajun food and consider trying a Bloody Mary (spiked with Tabasco, of course). There’s also a unique nature preserve called Jungle Gardens where you’ll learn the story of how Avery Island helped save an entire species of bird from disappearing in the US. Despite its name, though, Avery Island is not an island. It’s a salt dome, a geological phenomenon in which an

underground bed of salt pushes up the terrain. That salt is used to flavour Tabasco. As the story goes, McIlhenny planted some pepper seeds he’d been given and liked the peppers they grew. He mashed them up with Avery Island salt, let the mixture age, then added vinegar and packaged the result in bottles designed for cologne. The spicy sauce was a hit. Museum exhibits include vintage bottles along with the wooden barrels still used to age the sauce. A greenhouse displays some pepper plants, though the peppers are now mostly grown outside the US. The sauce is bottled here, though, and you’ll get a good look at the factory where a stream of bright red

bottles flies past. The factory can produce up to 700,000 bottles a day, and you’ll see the day’s tally on a digital ticker. By the way, the seeds have no connection to the state of Tabasco in Mexico, but the word tabasco is derived from an Aztec term that means “humid land” and the seeds McIlhenny planted are said to have originated in Latin America. Across the decades Tabasco has become a cultural phenomenon as well as a culinary staple. One video in the museum shows Tabasco turning up in everything from Bugs Bunny cartoons to James Bond movies. Tabasco was used as a wartime code word and included as a condiment in prepackaged meals for

US soldiers. And it’s sold in 195 countries and territories worldwide. Tabasco’s current CEO, Tony Simmons, is McIlhenny’s great-great-grandson. He says only 2 to 4 per cent of family businesses make it to the fourth generation, but Tabasco is already in the hands of the fifth generation. “My family is very tied to Avery Island,” Simmons told AP. “Avery Island is part of the reason we’ve been able to hold onto our business for 150 years.” At the onsite country store, you can try free samples of Tabasco-infused edibles ranging from soft ice cream to soda to pickles.

Reasons why beer may be good for you

homas Jefferson once said: “Beer, if drunk in moderation, softens the temper, cheers the spirit and promotes health.” Though he may not always be right about the temper - ask the bouncers at any nightclub - he may be surprisingly correct about the health claim. We take a look at some of the biggest benefits beer drinking has for your body.

1. It may reduce the risk of heart disease Perhaps the most proven positive of a well-placed pint: drinking beer is good for your heart. According to a 2012 study published in the European Heart Journal, beverages rich in polyphenols, like beer, have been shown repeatedly to carry substantial cardiovascular benefits, and drinking one half to two pints of beer a day lessens your chance of heart disease by around 25 per cent. 2. It can be good for your long-term memory With an emphasis on ‘longterm’. After a boozy night out, don’t expect to know what you did or said after your seventh pint of Stella. However, studies suggest that chemicals found in beer can slow the progress of degenerative cognitive diseases like Alzheimer’s. Sipping on your beer of choice won’t help you study for your exams, but, decades down the line, it might help

you remember which ones you passed. 3. It’s apparently good for your bones According to a 2013 study, beer contains a high proportion of silicon, a key component of bone construction, in quantities not found in most foods. Products high in hops and barley are particularly effective. 4. It could increase your creativity Evidence suggests a light tipple increases creativity and outside-the-box-thinking. A 2017 study published in the journal Consciousness and Cognition, found participants with a small amount of alcohol in their bloodstream outstripped their sober counterparts in cognitive tests, despite losing, in the words of the study, “a degree of executive control”. It’s as Hemingway (supposedly) said: “Write drunk, edit sober.” 5. It may help your sight This may sound like

alcoholic mysticism but there is evidence to suggest that unlatching a lager might be just as good for your eyes as gulping down a carrot smoothie. According to researchers from Canada, one beer a day releases antioxidants that help to stop the formation of cataracts. Unsurprisingly, there’s a catch: Drinking three or more beers a day reverses this trend, on top of fuzzying your faculties. 6. It could reduces the risk of kidney stones No one seems entirely sure why beer carries this particular benefit, but a 2013 study suggested that a bottle before bedtime could reduce the risk of kidney stones by 40 per cent, or even more. Some put it down as a component of hops, others to the increased fluid intake, but all agree that periodic beer drinking is doing your kidneys a kindness. Quaff them into shape at your leisure - just get used to the odd bathroom break.

legend that has stayed with the band until today. The Face To Face tour will traverse the classic album – with the band performing all the songs that made the LP a breakthrough for them back in 1978. For Dave Gleeson, it is an honour to be able to perform the classic tracks and take listeners down memory lane. “Face To Face is, without doubt, one of the must have albums and sits very comfortably alongside any of the greatest Australian albums of all time,” he says. “Every song, whether released as a single or not, is indelibly stamped in the music vocabulary of rock music fans, here and in many parts of the world. I heard it for the first time at the age of 10, thanks to my older brother, and now to be singing many of the songs each night on stage with John

and Rick, is somewhat surreal. Chock a block with thumping riffs and evocative lyrics, Face To Face is an album 40 years old that still kicks the arse of many albums before, or since.” Iconic rock band The Angels are gearing up for the 40th Anniversary Tour of their seminal album Face To Face in July. It is hard to believe, but in 2018 it has been four decades since Face To Face was released. To celebrate, the band will be embarking on a massive national tour that will see them perform the entire album, as well as their biggest hits. The Angels bring their Face To Face 40 Years On Tour to Chelsea Heights Hotel on Saturday July 14. Doors open at 8pm and tickets are on sale now from the venue or Oztix.com.au

GEOFF ACHISON FROM MELBOURNE TO MEMPHIS

ocals love Geoff and his background tells us why. Born on Phillip Island, Achison taught himself guitar in the isolation of rural Australia and forged his own path to a successful career with an explosive blues/funk style and top-notch vocals. However, Peninsula fans aren’t the only admirers Achison has earned along the way, having toured relentlessly throughout the U.K, U.S and Australia. With each country toured, our blues wizard performs his popular acoustic solo shows or enlists the best local musicians to recreate his brainchild band The Souldiggers as he goes. Forming the group, Souldiggers is meant to convey the tapping into of one’s soul for honesty and truth, and this is expressed through their music and Achison’s hard work, which continued in 1994

setting up his own record label Jupiter II Records. These early recordings were received well by fans and critics, which led to him representing the Melbourne Blues Society at the International Blues Challenge in Memphis winning the coveted Albert King Award for his guitar skill. An extraordinary guitarist who plays quite unlike anyone else, Geoff has been a driving force on the Australian blues/roots scene inspiring and influencing many of his younger compatriots. Besides his music awards he has been honoured in ‘Australian Guitar Magazine’s’ Top 50 Guitarists, True Fire’s ‘100 Guitarists You Should Know’ and he is also Official Patron of the ‘Melbourne Blues Appreciation Society’, In 2017 Geoff Achison released Another Mile

Another Minute, his first all-original studio album in 8 years. This release also featured The Souldiggers and an impressive list of guest artists. It was picked up by US label Landslide Records and scooped the pool at the 2017 ‘Chain’ Australian Blues Awards winning in 5 categories Watson & Tilders are sadly no longer around, but Geoff’s success serves, in part at least, as testament to their positive influence on the younger generation. Geoff Achison’s journey continues these days with himself an elder

statesman of the vibrant local scene and a firm favourite with those in-the-know on the international stage. Geoff Achison and his band perform Sunday June 24 at Mornington’s Royal Hotel from 3pm with no cover charge. For more details and a comprehensive local Gig Guide visit www.pearlhq.com.au.

As producer of Dog Day Afternoon, he shared a best picture nomination in 1976. Bregman, who discovered Pacino in an Off Broadway play, was the personal and

business manager not only for Pacino and Alan Alda but also at various times for Barbra Streisand, Woody Allen, Faye Dunaway, Candice Bergen and Bette Midler. Bregman nurtured Pacino as the actor built his stage and then his film career, helping Pacino land his first starring role in a feature, 1971’s Panic in Needle Park, for which the actor beat out Robert De Niro.

Cobain’s items to go on show in Ireland

n exhibition dedicated to late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain opens in Ireland next month, showcasing a selection of the grunge rock singer’s belongings curated by his family. From his sketches and drawings to clothing and a car, Growing Up Kurt Cobain will display dozens of Cobain’s personal items, some of them never seen before by the public. His daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, and mother, Wendy O’Connor, will be among the singer’s relatives attending the opening at the Museum of Style Icons in Newbridge, 50km southwest of Dublin. Cobain, who had Irish ancestry, died in 1994 at the age of 27 from a self-inflicted gunshot. “I have always been the most intimately informed of who my father was by my grandmother and aunts,” Frances Bean Cobain said in a statement. “I am so ecstatic that their view of who Kurt was gets to

(03) 9582 4600 | mulgravecc.com.au

be celebrated with Nirvana fans the world over.” Fans of Cobain, who popularised grunge rock in the early 1990s, will be able to see the striped green sweater he wore in the video for Nirvana’s 1991 hit Smells Like Teen Spirit and his MTV Video award for the same song. The singer’s childhood drawings of cartoon characters, handwritten lyrics and powder-blue 1965 Dodge Dart car will also be on display. “With this exhibition we hope to bring the focus back to Kurt’s roots, vision and artistic genius, to inspire everyone not to lose their creativity and childlike wonder,” Cobain’s sister Kim Cobain said. The small museum in County Kildare has outfits worn by the likes of Audrey Hepburn, Elizabeth Taylor and Grace Kelly on display, and has previously hosted exhibitions dedicated to Michael Jackson and Prince. The museum’s owner, William Doyle, who is also

chief executive of jewellery and homeware maker Newbridge Silverware, said the idea of a Kurt Cobain exhibition stemmed from his friendship with the singer’s family.

“The family have this feeling that they are bringing him back home,” he said. Growing Up Kurt Cobain opens on July 19 and runs until the end of September.

Honda Urban EV Concept named ‘Best Concept Car’ by global judging panel A n international panel of automobile experts has named the Honda Urban EV Concept as ‘The Best Concept Car’ in the renowned 2018 Car Design Award honours, presented today as part of the Turin Motor Show. Organised by Auto & Design magazine, the Car Design Award finalists and winners are selected and judged by a jury comprised of 12 automotive journalists from the world’s most prestigious publications. The Honda Urban EV Concept was named as a finalist in April this year, and was subsequently chosen as the overall concept car winner against nine other vehicle designs. Global recognition in the Car Design Award follows the Urban EV Concept’s success in being named as Automobile magazine’s 2018 Concept of the Year in January. Honda revealed the Urban EV Concept at the 2017 Frankfurt Motor Show. The milestone design sets the

direction for Honda’s first battery electric for Europe, which will be introduced during late 2019,with a simple and sophisticated appearance that contrasts with the advanced technology that powers the car. Its low and wide proportions present a sporty stance, while the contemporary styling incorporates slim A-pillars and a wide windscreen that appears to sweep around the entire front end of the cabin. Entry and exit from the vehicle is via rear-hinged coach doors. At the front of the Urban EV Concept, interactive multilingual messages can be displayed between the headlights, including greetings, advice for other drivers on the road, or charging status updates. The interior is equally inviting, with natural materials and an open-plan cabin that features front and rear bench seating. Natural grey fabric and wood finish accents create the relaxed ambience of a lounge

area, while a high-tech ‘floating’ dashboard incorporates a wraparound screen that runs behind the console and extends into the doors. “The Honda Urban EV Concept is a wonderfully judged piece of design which brings a much-needed sense of personality to the EV space,” concludes the joint statement from the Car Design Award jury. “Its clever blending of both retro and futuristic aesthetics gives it an undeniable desirability that few can compete with.” Honda’s Urban EV Concept will be the first pure electric car to go into series production under the brand’s ‘Electric Vision’ strategy in Europe. This strategy includes the development of a dedicated electric vehicle platform, featuring fully-electric Honda powertrain technology. “Our Urban EV Concept is the true representation of ‘We make it simple’ design idea, which aims to make cars closer

to people’s hearts,” said Makoto Iwaki, Honda R&D Executive Creative Director. “I express the utmost gratitude on behalf of our entire Honda design team to the jury who valued our unique proposal, which we feel contrasts with the recent car designs. The production car based on this concept model is currently underway, which will be easy to access, fun to drive, and make everyday life more fulfilled and joyful.” In 2018, the Car Design Award celebrates its third year in a renewed format. It was originally run between 1984 and 1997, and – fittingly – Honda was the very first winner with its design for the thirdgeneration Civic. Order books for the production model of the Honda Urban EV Concept will open in early 2019, and the first European deliveries are set to commence towards the end of that year.

James Sutherland to stand down as Cricket Australia CEO

ricket Australia chief executive James Sutherland has resigned, denying the sport’s recent balltampering crisis was the catalyst that ended his 17-year tenure. Sutherland has given 12 months’ notice, with the former first-class cricketer to continue in the post until his replacement is found. Sutherland was appointed in 2001 as Malcolm Speed’s successor at the then Australian Cricket Board, overseeing plenty of highs and lows in a remarkably long tenure for a CEO of a major sporting body. Instrumental in the formation of the successful men’s and women’s Big Bash Leagues, he more recently proved a circuit-breaker in last year’s ugly pay dispute and helped sign the lucrative new broadcast rights deal in April. However, Sutherland’s tenure has also featured a handful of scandals involving the national team - including two that led to the exits of coaches Mickey

Arthur and Darren Lehmann. The 52-year-old insisted in Cape Town two months ago that he had no intention to stand down in the wake of Australia’s premeditated plan to cheat by scuffing the ball with sandpaper. Public heat was turned on Sutherland over the unprecedented saga which led to skipper Steve Smith and vicecaptain David Warner being banned for 12 months and prompted ongoing reviews into the culture at CA and in the team. But Sutherland, flanked by

chairman David Peever in Melbourne on Wednesday morning, told reporters his departure plan had been in the works for years. “It (the ball-tampering saga) hasn’t had a bearing on my decision. David and I have been talking about this for two years,” Sutherland told reporters. “It’s something I’ve been talking about for a long time. “It’d be silly for me to say anything other than I want to continue in the role (in the immediate aftermath of public outrage that followed the cheating

scandal). “After nearly 20 years at Cricket Australia and 17 years as chief executive the time is right for me and my family.” Sutherland thanked Peever and his five predecessors for “having the confidence in me, and their friendship, support and counsel”. “My successor will have a strong and stable platform to lead our sport,” Sutherland said. “My overwhelming feeling today is a sense of gratitude. I feel fortunate.” Peever, who confirmed he will serve another term as chairman, thanked Sutherland for his “wonderful service to the game”. “When he started in the role he was younger than then captain Steve Waugh. He carries himself with humility and dignity,” Peever said. “The whole time I’ve been chairman, we’ve been talking about what the best time is.” Peever revealed Sutherland was close to resigning after the 2017-18 Ashes success but the pair agreed he should stay on until negotiations with new TV partners Fox Sports and the Seven Network were complete.

“SUTHERLAND’S TENURE HAS ALSO FEATURED A HANDFUL OF SCANDALS...”

IBF STRIPS GOLOVKIN OF MIDDLEWEIGHT TITLE T

he International Boxing Federation has stripped Gennady Golovkin of his middleweight title after he failed to set up a mandatory defence against Ukrainian Sergiy Derevyanchenko. Golovkin was scheduled for a rematch against his WBC mandatory challenger Saul “Canelo” Alvarez on May 5 but the Mexican withdrew from the fight after being suspended by the Nevada State Athletic Commission in April. Golovkin, who had held the IBF title since October 2015, defended his WBA, WBC and IBO belts against Vanes Martirosyan instead in a fight that was not sanctioned by the IBF. The IBF’s mandatory challenger

bout was next in the rotation and the organisation ruled in a meeting on May 22 that Golovkin had until June 6 to agree fight terms with Derevyanchenko. “After a lengthy review and period of deliberation, the International Boxing Federation has vacated the IBF Middleweight title held by Gennady Golovkin,” the IBF said in a statement on Wednesday. “The IBF had to enforce the penalty under Rule 5H for Golovkin having participated in an unsanctioned contest within his weight class and declare the IBF Middleweight title vacant. “The IBF will identify the two leading available contenders and order them to negotiate to fight for the vacant title.”

MAYWEATHER IS WORLD’S HIGHEST PAID ATHLETE

etired boxer Floyd Mayweather has reclaimed first place from football superstar Cristiano Ronaldo in Forbes’ 2018 list of the world’s 100 highest-paid athletes. The 41-year-old American’s earnings from last year’s fight with Irishman Conor McGregor made him the world’s best paid for the fourth time in seven years, with $US285 million. Real Madrid striker Ronaldo ($US108 million) fell to third, behind soccer rival Lionel Messi ($US111 million). Only the top three had earnings surpassing $US100 million. Irish mixed martial artist McGregor ($US99 million) and

Paris St Germain’s Neymar ($US90 million) were fourth and fifth, respectively, but for the first time since 2010 there was not a single woman on the list. Serena Williams, winner of 23 grand slam tennis singles titles, was the sole female representative last year but she has since largely been inactive owing to pregnancy and giving birth to her daughter Alexis in September. Though still substantial, her $US18 million off-court earnings from sponsors were insufficient for her to make the top 100. LeBron James (basketball), Roger Federer (tennis), Stephen Curry (basketball), Matt Ryan (American football) and Matthew

Stafford (American football) concluded the top 10. Barcelona’s Argentine star Messi narrowly surpassed Ronaldo after signing a new contract at Barcelona, but the Portuguese, Mayweather and golfer Tiger Woods - this year ranked 16th - remained the only three to top the best-paid list during the past 18 years. Fourth-placed McGregor’s earnings represented almost double that of fourtime Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton ($US51 million).

an Thorpe has called for change with how sporting bodies approach major competitions like the Olympics in a bid to ease the burden on athletes. The Australian swimming legend believes there is too much pressure placed on competitors when organisations set medal targets for events. Instead of being ambitious in setting high goals, Thorpe says it’s only having a detrimental effect on athletes’ performances. “I don’t think it’s beneficial when sporting organisations are talking about how many gold medals we’ll win at a competition and that will be the highest number we’ve ever won,” Thorpe said on Tuesday. “It puts an immense amount of pressure on athletes around something they have no control over. “What I’d prefer to see happen is we know the athletes represent our communities, they’ll represent the diversity of this country and they’re going to represent it well to the best of our ability and that will lead to gold medals.” Before Rio 2016, the Australian Olympic Committee predicted Australia would win 13 gold medals, for an overall tally of 37. The Australian team returned with eight golds and a total of 29.

goes - some sides, for example, play 33-minute quarters and others play 28-minute quarters,” Hardwick said on Friday. “Over the course of a week that doesn’t seem significant but over the year it can be quite significant. “When you look at games with young sides, the blowouts tend to happen in the last five minutes of quarters. “If it’s all about what’s best for the competition, I think it’s a nobrainer.” Scott said shorter matches would be more appealing to

younger fans. “It does open up the potential for even more games,” Scott told reporters on Friday. “If the game was much shorter I think there would be a really strong argument to stretch the season and maybe even consider a move that would assist the integrity of the game by having more teams play each other twice. “I don’t think we’d lose much from the spectacle if the game was up to even 25 per cent shorter.” Hawthorn coach Alastair Clarkson said his club was

asked by the AFL to trial some proposed structural changes at a session last weekend at Etihad Stadium because they had requested to train at the venue ahead of three matches there. “They said ‘well, if you do, in some of your 18 versus 18 stuff would you be able to allow us to just trial a couple of things?’” said the four-time flag-winning coach. “We gave the AFL two 10-minute opportunities to use our players. “It was only around one particular thing and that was at stoppages. “Either centre bounce or between the arcs, (they asked) ‘could we see what it looked like with more numbers staying inside 50, rather than all going up to the stoppage?’” Clarkson said it was incumbent on the AFL to accumulate as much evidence as possible if they were to lock in any rule changes before the draft in October. “There were parts of it that looked really, really effective and I’m sure the AFL were pleased with some of the outcomes,” he said. “There were other parts that you think ‘that’s not going to work at all.’”

EAGLES NOT SCARRED BY LOSSES

TO SWANS: YEO W

BOMBERS MUST BUCK BYE TREND AGAINST EAGLES

f recent history is an accurate guide Essendon should be afraid - very afraid. The Bombers emerge from their AFL mid-season bye to take on West Coast at Optus

Stadium on Thursday night. Not only will they need to find a way to upset a fired-up Eagles side looking to rebound after a loss and reclaim top spot, they must buck the trend of teams

est Coast midfielder Elliot Yeo insists his team haven’t been scarred by their two losses to Sydney this year, saying he would gladly face the Swans in this season’s AFL finals. Sydney are the only team who have beaten West Coast this year - in round one, and again last week. The third-placed Swans have won 11 of the past 13 matches between the two sides, and the odds are high that the arch rivals will meet at some point during this year’s finals. If that happens, Yeo says West Coast would embrace it. “Absolutely,” Yeo said. “I don’t think there’s any scars. “It’s one of those ones where it’s a little bit more frustrating, because personally I feel we should have won (on Friday). “And we probably should have won in round one if we had have capitalised. “The confidence and belief is there that we can beat them and we can take it up to them. It’s just a matter of being able to execute it.” West Coast won the clearances (36-24) and inside 50s (63-52) in Friday night’s 15-point loss, but losing their first games back after the break. Since clubs first started to pause for a rest in round 10 just one - Hawthorn - of six has managed to take the

their young forward line failed to capitalise. Forward Jack Darling is still sidelined by a fractured ankle, and West Coast are hoping fellow spearhead Josh Kennedy won’t join him on the injury list. Kennedy, who underwent foot surgery during the off-season, looked sore during the end of last week’s game, with the pain in his Achilles tendon seemingly flaring up. Yeo hopes the 30-year-old can keep battling through the pain. “He’s a contested player. He’s always got some sort of ice pack on somewhere,” Yeo said. “It’s just one of those ones where he pulled up a little bit sore. But I think he should be ok.” West Coast (10-2) slipped to second spot following the loss to Sydney, and will be aiming to rebound in Thursday night’s clash with Essendon at Optus Stadium. Yeo said the prospect of reclaiming top spot wasn’t a motivating factor for the group. Essendon (5-7) have won three of their past four games, but face an uphill battle to work their way back into the finals picture.

premiership points on their returns to AFL action. Gold Coast and Port Adelaide were the first sides to have a bye after the Power won their round-nine clash in Shanghai.
