TEST SQUAD L

egspinner Mitchell Swepson’s aggressive approach secured him selection in an Australian Test squad carrying hope rather than expectation on the looming Indian tour. The 23-year-old Queenslander is among four specialist spinners included in a 16-man squad also featuring allrounder Glenn Maxwell and brothers Shaun and Mitchell Marsh. Spin great Shane Warne had been among those calling for Swepson to be fast-tracked into the Australian side. “I had high hopes with a lot of chat being thrown around but I didn’t really deep down think I was a chance,” Swepson told reporters in Melbourne on Sunday. ...cont. on page 69 >>

Man in Vic court after fatal overdoses

hree people have died and at least 11 remain in hospital after 20 suspected ecstasy overdoses in Melbourne, with a French waiter appearing in court on dealing charges. Five clubbers were treated in hospital after partying at the Revolver Upstairs in Chapel St, where Sebastien Verger-Giambelluco was allegedly selling pills on Sunday. The 30-year-old French national is in Australia on a working holiday visa and has waiting jobs at three restaurants in Carlton. He appeared at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Monday charged with trafficking MDMA and possessing the proceeds of crime. Detective Senior Constable Simon McCloskey told the court 20 people were in hospital from suspected overdoses in the city over the weekend - three of them fatal.

One of the deaths was at a house in Elwood on Friday night, he said. A spokesman for The Alfred Hospital said 12 people were admitted with suspected drug reactions over the weekend, 11 were still being treated on

Monday and were in a stable condition. There is no information about the other five patients. Police went to Revolver early on Sunday after a woman in her early 20s was taken to hospital with a suspected overdose.

Detective McCloskey said there is no evidence directly linking Verger-Giambelluco to the other overdoses. Magistrate Andrew Capell granted him bail but required him to surrender his passport and report to a police station three times a week. “The allegations here are suggestive, and suggestive only, that drugs you sold may have affected or caused overdoses - evidence of that is tenuous at best at the hospital or discharged. moment,” he said.

Mum admits murdering kids in Vic lake

mother has admitted murdering three of her seven children despite earlier insisting dizziness or witchcraft was behind her fatal drive with them in her car into a Melbourne lake. Akon Guode, 37, showed little emotion as she pleaded guilty to the infanticide of her one-year-old son, Bol, and the murders of her four-yearold twins, Hanger and her brother Madit. Guode on Monday also pleaded guilty to the attempted murder of her six-year-old daughter, Alual, who survived the crash in Wyndham Vale on April 8, 2015. The mother’s plea comes before her trial for the murders in the Victorian Supreme Court. As the charges were read to her on Monday, with the help of an interpreter, the only words Guode said were “guilty” to each charge.

None of her family was present and detectives who investigated the children’s deaths did not comment as they left court. Guode was in August ordered to stand trial for three counts of murder and one count of attempted murder following a fourweek committal hearing in the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court. After the bodies of her children were pulled from the lake, the mother blamed a

the car’s engine’s revving after it had landed in the water. A key witness also testified that Guode believed witchcraft had caused the crash. Guode had told the woman she thought she was under a “spell” when she drove into Lake Gladman. The woman said Guode believed her lover’s wife may have used a witch doctor against her. The witness gave evidence she overheard Guode say she would “rather take her own life and that of the kids” than see them live with her lover, Joseph Manyang, and his wife. During Guode’s committal hearing Mr Manyang said he believed it was an accident and continued to visit Guode in prison. He said she was a good mother who loved all her children. Guode will return to court on January 31.

dizzy spell for causing her to lose control of the car. But an investigator said the car was deliberately driven into the water. Several police reenactments showed the car could not have drifted off the roadway, as Guode claimed. The re-enactments also demonstrated a driver would need to turn the steering wheel three times to get into the water. Several passers-by and witnesses recalled hearing

Turkish cargo jet crash kills 37 A

Turkish cargo jet has crashed near Kyrgyzstan’s Manas airport, killing at least 37 people as it tried to land in dense fog.

Most of those killed on Monday were residents of a village that was struck by the Boeing 747 as it attempted its landing about 7.30am local time (12.30pm AEDT).

According to the airport administration, the plane was supposed to make a stopover at Manas, near the capital city Bishkek, on its way from Hong Kong to Istanbul. The doomed plane ploughed for a few hundred metres through the village, shattering into pieces and damaging buildings. Initial estimates put the death toll at 37. Kyrgyz officials initially identified the Boeing 747400 as belonging to Turkish

Airlines, but Turkish cargo operator ACT Airlines said the jet was theirs. “Our TC-MCL signed plane, flying on January 16 from Hong Kong to Bishkek, crashed on landing at Bishkek at the end of the runway for an unknown reason,” ACT Airlines said in an emailed statement. “More information will be disclosed concerning our four-person team when we get clear information.”

Samsung chief’s arrest sought over bribery S

outh Korean prosecutors want to arrest the head of Samsung Group, accusing him of paying multimilliondollar bribes to a friend of President Park Geun-hye. Samsung Group chief Jay Y Lee was questioned for 22 straight hours last week as investigators probed a corruption scandal that resulted in parliament impeaching Park in December. The special prosecutor’s office accused Lee of paying bribes totalling 43 billion won ($A48.7 million) to Choi Soon-sil, a friend of the president who is at the centre of the scandal. Lee was also accused of embezzlement and perjury in the prosecution’s application for an arrest warrant. Seoul’s central district court said a hearing will be held on

Wednesday to decide whether to approve the warrant. Samsung did not have an immediate comment. “The special prosecutor’s office, in making this decision to seek an arrest warrant, determined that while the country’s economic conditions are important, upholding justice takes precedence,” Lee Kyu-chul, a spokesman for the office, told a media briefing. Prosecutors have been looking into whether Samsung’s support for a business and foundations backed by Park’s friend Choi might have been connected to the National Pension Service’s 2015 decision to support a controversial $US8 billion merger of two Samsung Group affiliates. NPS chairman Moon Hyung-pyo was indicted on Monday on charges of abuse of power and giving false

evidence. Park remains in office but has been stripped of her powers while the Constitutional Court decides whether to make her the country’s first democratically elected leader to be forced from office. Moon was arrested in December after acknowledging ordering the world’s third-largest pension fund to support the $US8 billion merger in 2015 while he was head of the health ministry, which oversees the NPS. Samsung has acknowledged providing funds to the three institutions but has repeatedly denied accusations of lobbying to push through the merger. Choi is accused of colluding with Park to pressure big businesses, including Samsung, to contribute to

non-profit foundations backing the president’s initiatives. Choi, in detention and on trial on charges of abuse of power and attempted fraud, again denied wrongdoing on Monday in an appearance at the Constitutional Court. She also denied having any prior knowledge of the Samsung Group’s controversial 2015 merger of two affiliates. Park has also denied wrongdoing, though admitted carelessness in her relationship with Choi. If the impeachment is upheld by the Constitutional Court, an election would be held in two months, with former UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon expected to be a candidate.

WRESTLING LEGEND JIMMY SNUKA DIES AT 73 J

immy “Superfly” Snuka, a legendary former professional wrestler who earlier this month was found not competent to stand trial in the 1983 death of his girlfriend, has died. He was 73. A lawyer representing Snuka said family members told him that Snuka died Sunday afternoon at his sonin-law’s home in Florida. His daughter - who currently wrestles in WWE as Tamina Snuka - posted a photo on Instagram of her holding her ill father’s hand with the caption, “I LOVE YOU DAD #FOREVERMYDAD

#RestWell #FamiliesAreForever #BestDad #SnukaLegacy.” And WWE acknowldged his death with a statement of condolence on its website. A judge on January 3 dismissed the murder case against the retired WWE star in the death of Nancy Argentino, whose body was found in their hotel room. Prosecutors allege she was beaten to death. Snuka maintained she died from a fall. Snuka, a native of Fiji was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 1996.

JAPAN BIRD FLU FEAR: 80,000 CHOOKS CULLED

okyo About 80,000 chickens have been culled at a poultry farm in central Japan after an outbreak of bird flu, Japanese authorities say. Troops were called in to help with the cull at the farm in Yamagata late on Saturday after a highly virulent strain of bird flu was detected, the Gifu prefectural government said. The outbreak prompted the local government to restrict

movements of poultry and eggs within a 10-kilometre radius of the farm. The farm alerted the prefectural government after more than 100 chickens were found dead early on Saturday. Since late November, cases of the highly pathogenic H5 virus have also been found at poultry farms in Niigata, Aomori, Miyazaki prefectures as well as the northernmost island of Hokkaido.

Brazilian vampire bat consumes human blood

ransylvania’s Dracula is getting competition from the Dyphilla ecaudata bat in northeastern Brazil, one of the world’s three species of vampire bat. Brazilian researchers have discovered that this small mammal has begun feeding on human blood due to the “degradation” of the local ecosystem caused by man. Research leader Enrico Bernard of the Federal University of Pernambuco Zoology Department says the species lives in a cave in northeastern Brazil’s Catimbau National Park,

some 300 km from Recife, the regional capital. The park, which is calculated to have some 2,000 caves, has a very dry climate and Bernard’s team has been monitoring one of the caves in the region for the past three years where there is a colony of bats living near the entrance. After analysing the excrement of the bat colony, researchers were surprised to find that - in addition to chicken DNA - there was also human DNA in a few of the samples, indicating that the bats were feeding on human

blood. Bernard said that the land of the people living in the park area was not “expropriated” when it was declared a national park in 2002, and people still live there in “rickety homes with little protection” from the elements - or bats on their nightly forays. Given the lack of big birds in the region, the traditional sources of their blood meals, the bats have had to resort to feeding on human blood at times. The normal amount of bird blood that the bats consume in a single “meal” on their

nighttime flights is about a tablespoon, and they are primarily after the fat it contains. However, human blood is thicker and has a higher protein content. Bernard says “there is no need for panic.” However, if the bats are now resorting to human blood for their meals, this does pose a public health problem since they can carry rabies. In 2005, Brazil registered its largest outbreak of rabies transmitted by bats in the northeastern state of Maranhao, with 20 people dying of the disease.

later charged with two counts of assault. Alastair Longmuir was outside the club, where his friend worked, when he saw the commotion about 2.30am and recognised Noll. “He was yelling and screaming and being really aggressive,” the 19-year-old told AAP. “He was saying, ‘I’m Shannon Noll. Let me back into the Crazy Horse’.”

At some stage the alleged assault occurred and Mr Longmuir said it was at that point Noll was swiftly taken to the ground by guards. Hindley Street revellers who saw the incident started singing Noll’s best-known hit. “As he was thrown to the ground these strangers started singing What About Me to him,” Mr Longmuir said. On Saturday Noll had performed at the Sounds By The River concert along with John Farnham and Daryl Braithwaite in Mannum, east of Adelaide. His manager David Woodward said there would be no comment in relation to the singer’s arrest or the incident in Adelaide for legal reasons. But he said upcoming tour dates would go ahead, including his scheduled appearance at the Mornington Racecourse on January 21 and 22 as part of the Red Hot Summer Tour. Other shows he is still scheduled for include the Tamworth Country Music Festival and more Red Hot Summer dates around the country.

“All of Shannon’s tour dates are going ahead as planned. He is looking forward to all upcoming show dates,” Woodward told AAP on Monday. The Australian Idol runnerup has been enjoying a career resurgence of late, more than a decade on from his appearance on the TV talent show. The incident has not done much to dent his popularity judging by the reaction on social media, with a Facebook post of him performing at Mannum attracting hundreds of supportive comments. He is scheduled to appear in the Adelaide Magistrates Court on February 24, the day before performing at a concert on Queensland’s Bribie Island.

PEOPLE SANG AS NOLL KNOCKED DOWN: WITNESS

evellers sang Shannon Noll’s hit song What About Me as the singer was knocked to the ground outside an Adelaide strip club, a witness says. Noll was arrested in the early hours of Sunday morning outside the Crazy Horse Revue on Hindley Street in Adelaide’s CBD. The 41-year-old was reportedly removed from the club by security guards and

he sister of a woman raped and stabbed to death in a Melbourne home 40 years ago has criticised the way police initially handled her sister’s murder investigation. The bloodied bodies of Suzanne Armstrong, 28, and housemate Susan Bartlett, 27, were found in their home in Collingwood on January 13, 1977, after a neighbour heard the cries of Ms Armstrong’s 16-month-old son, Gregory Ms Armstrong had been raped and stabbed 29 times and left her on the floor in her bedroom. Ms Bartlett, who police believe was either trying to save her housemate or raise the alarm, was caught by the offender and stabbed 55 times in the hall of the home on Easey Street. Police believe they were killed on the night of January 10. As she joined Victoria’s homicide squad boss on Sunday to announce a $1 million reward for information on her sister’s death, Gayle Armstrong expressed frustration about early errors. “We weren’t even interviewed,” Gayle told reporters on Sunday. “We had to make an appointment to go down to the police station to speak to police, which was really bad.” The sisters had planned to reunite in Hungerford,

Queensland, where Gayle was working as a shearers’ cook. But Ms Armstrong stayed in Collingwood when she couldn’t find anyone to look after baby Gregory. Police have a DNA profile of the offender and 130 persons of interest, including 41 who have died since the murders. But all eight prime suspects in the case were eliminated after DNA testing in 1999 and investigators working the case have no strong leads. “I hate to say it but here’s a million dollars,” Gayle said. “You can live the rest of your life in comfort - just say something.” Homicide Detective Inspector Mick Hughes said he didn’t think someone could commit a crime with such brutality and go unnoticed. “I don’t say that he has told someone, but someone will know something about his behaviour or conduct that can point us to him,” he told reporters. He acknowledged mistakes were made in investigating the case decades ago but said it is now standard to interview the families of homicide victims. “Even (despite) the mistakes those guys may have made in the early days, I know all they want is this investigation to be solved for the sake of both families.”

Hanson, 34, admitted in a San Diego court he was the

“performance-enhancing drugs to numerous

professional athletes”.

The former University of Southern California gridiron player had protested his innocence since Australian and US authorities arrested him at a golf course near San Diego in 2015. But as his trial approached and facing life in prison, he agreed on Tuesday in a plea deal to the 20-year sentence. He entered guilty pleas to racketeering conspiracy and conspiracy to distribute narcotics charges. Prosecutors agreed to drop two of the lesser charges he faced - money laundering conspiracy and operating an illegal gambling business. It will be up to the judge at his March 20 sentencing to confirm the plea deal. In June 2011, Hanson arranged for a professional gambler to go to Sydney’s Star City Casino and have $US1.5 million in drugtrafficking proceeds turned into a casino cheque.

The cheque was then cashed in Las Vegas.

The court heard Hanson unsuccessfully attempted to do it again with the gambler in August 2011, with $US2.5 million. Hanson, an American, had lived a playboy life before his arrest.

His Twitter picture depicts him smiling and shirtless by a pool with an attractive woman in a bikini. Hanson originally faced extradition to Australia, but Australian authorities likely will have to wait until after he’s served his prison sentence to prosecute him.

Hanson had boasted he could sell a kilogram of cocaine in Australia for $US175,000 compared with $US20,000 in Los Angeles.

The Australian-US investigation, which began with the discovery in a Sydney hotel room in 2011 of a suitcase containing $A702,000 in cash, eventually led to Hanson and ODOG.

NZ boogie boarder ‘risked life’ on falls

daredevil boogie boarder has been filmed riding down New Zealand’s fast-flowing Huka Falls in front of cheering crowds.

The stuntman, believed to be 32-year-old Porirua man Hayley Patuwai, goes by the name Dr Bubbles in the footage which is believed to have been filmed on his way to Hamilton between Christmas and New Year. Referred to on the video as “the man, the myth, the legend” he is shown drifting over the falls.

Taupo mayor David Trewavas says it’s behaviour that puts lives at risk, but such thrillseekers are not uncommon over the summer months.

While signs upstream of the falls don’t warn against swimming, they do alert those entering the water of strong and dangerous currents. “We certainly don’t condone that sort of activity when it puts individual’s lives at risk,”

he told NZ Newswire.

“And not only that, but it risks the lives of the emergency services who are called out if something goes wrong.” The footage, shared on the BeastMoze Facebook page, has been viewed more

than 97,000 times and has attracted more than 3000 likes.

It’s received mixed reactions with some praising the daredevil and others urging people not to follow his example. Water masses of Waikato river rushing down Huka Falls

lobal sales of vinyl records will break through the $US 1 billion ($A1.4 billion) mark for the first time this century, a report said. The LP’s remarkable revival will continue this year, with more than 90 per cent of revenues coming from sales of new and second-hand discs, according to Deloitte. It will be the seventh year on the bounce that sales of 12inch records have recorded double-digit growth, pushing their share of the physical music market to 18 per cent. Paul Lee, Deloitte’s head of technology, media and telecoms (TMT) research, said vinyl’s resurgence more than 40 years after its peak was a phenomenon. “The ubiquity of music streaming services means that music has never been more accessible, portable and readily available for the consumer. “Yet, despite that, consumers are choosing to buy something tangible and nostalgic and at a price

point that provides record companies with significant revenues.” Around 40 million new vinyl records are expected to be sold this year, pulling in $US800 million to $US900 million in sales. The report said that 10 per cent of global revenues will also come from the sale of new turntables and accessories. “Vinyl has a future in music, and an attractive one from a financial as well as an aesthetic perspective, but it is not, and is unlikely ever to be, its major growth or profit engine,” Lee added. “Music’s future, both from a revenue and consumption perspective, is all about digital, and this is where the brunt of the industry’s focus should be.” More than 3.2 million LPs were sold last year, according to separate figures published by the British Phonographic Industry last week, a rise of 53 per cent on 2015 and the highest annual total since 1991.

NINTENDO’S NEW CONSOLE SET FOR MARCH 3 N

intendo’s new Switch console, which alternates between a home and mobile gaming system, will go on sale on March 3, the gaming giant says. Revealed at the end of 2016, the Switch is Nintendo’s first home video games console since the Wii U. However, a small portable screen can be removed from the main hub and connected to the device’s modular JoyCon controllers to create a mobile, handheld gaming device. The next instalment in the popular Legend Of Zelda series, Breath Of The Wild was also revealed as a launch title for the system, as was Super Mario Odyssey and

Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Nintendo also said thirdparty games including EA Sports’ Fifa and world-builder Minecraft would also be available on the system. Although Switch’s price will vary from country to country, it will cost $US299 ($A399) in the United States and 29,960 yen $US260 ($A347) in Japan, said the company. “Nintendo Switch is a brand-new kind of home gaming system that offers a wide variety of play modes,” said Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima. “We will introduce the world to new experiences made possible by the unique characteristics of the Nintendo Switch hardware and the Joy-Con.” The modular controller has

MOON OVER THE HILL AT 4.51BL YEARS I t turns out the moon is older than many scientists suspected: a ripe 4.51 billion years old.

That’s the newest estimate, thanks to rocks and soil collected by the Apollo 14 moonwalkers in 1971. A research team reported on Wednesday that the moon formed within 60 million years of the birth of the solar system.

Some of the eight zircon samples were used in a previous study, also conducted at UCLA. Barboni said she is studying more zircons from Apollo 14 samples, but doesn’t expect it to change her estimate of 4.51 billion years for the moon’s age, possibly 4.52 billion years at the most.

It’s the second major moon study recently. On Monday, Israeli scientists suggested our Earth’s constant companion may actually be a melting pot of many mini-moons.

Rather than one giant impact that shaved off a chunk of Earth and formed the moon, a series of smaller collisions may have created multiple moonlets that eventually merged into one, according to the researchers.

Barboni said regardless of how the moon came to be - one big strike at Earth, many smaller ones or even none at all - “you still end up at the end solidifying the moon as we know it today.”

The giant impact theory holds that the resulting energy formed a lunar lava ocean that later became solid. It’s this solidification age that Barboni and her team have now ascertained. “We finally pinned down a minimum age for the moon formation,” she said, “regardless of how it formed.”

A.I. TO BE BIGGEST 2017 TECH TREND: EXPERTS A

rtificial intelligence that creates smart homes powered by virtual assistants will be the biggest tech trend of 2017, analysts predict.

Experts from tech analyst firm CCS Insight said this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES) will be remembered for the unveiling of products designed to help users control their entire home using voice controls, apps and artificial intelligence (AI) assistants. They said waves of new products will look to build on the early success of the Amazon Echo and Google Home, two smart home systems which went on sale in 2016. Both products connect to the internet and can link up with other internetenabled devices and appliances around homes, including TVs, lights and thermostats, enabling users to control all these items using just voice commands.

CCS Insight’s Martin Garner said the success of the Amazon Echo smart speaker in the UK meant that many companies were looking to work with it

rather than challenge it themselves.

“Success in the smart speaker market will be determined by the software platform, not the hardware,” he said adding that the analyst firm believes AI will go on to be the biggest technology trend of 2017 because of this shift. CES organisers the Consumer Technology Association has also revealed new research ahead of the Las Vegas show that suggests a similar trend. It said the emergence of smart home devices such as the Echo that are driven by AI and machine learning will cause a 1.5 per cent growth in industry revenue in the US alone this year. Chief executive Gary Shapiro said: “Our forecast reinforces our belief that connectivity is going to be one of the driving trends of our time. “More and more consumers are discovering the remarkable benefits connected products deliver, providing any time, anywhere access to information, entertainment and each other.”

SLEEP DEVICES TO HEAD TRENDS AT US SHOW

echnology designed to improve sleep was one of the biggest trends at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show (CES), organisers say. The annual Las Vegas-based event had a dedicated “sleep tech marketplace” for the first time with sleep trackers and sensors, smart alarms and even connected beds on display.

Gary Shapiro, chief executive of CES organiser the Consumer Technology Association (CTA), said the event was seeing “huge growth” in wearable devices aimed at improving sleep, health & fitness and sports tracking.

The trade show, which marks its 50th anniversary this year and traditionally serves as an agenda setter for the coming 12 months, was the biggest yet, including more than 850 companies exhibiting products at the event for the first time. And 600 start-up firms looking for investment .Household names including Sony, Samsung, LG and Panasonic presented new products during the show.

PARIS HAPPY ABOUT AXING OF DRAMA ABOUT DAD P

aris Jackson says she’s surprised her feelings were taken into account after a drama after about the life of her father, pop superstar Michael Jackson, was pulled from broadcast. She took to social media to say she was pleased about the decision. The Sky Arts program was set to star Joseph Fiennes as the singer as part of the Urban Myths series starting on January 19. But Jackson, 18, said she wanted to “vomit” after seeing images and a teaser clip of the actor as her father. After the decision was made to drop the episode, she posted on Twitter: “I’m surprised the family’s feelings

were actually taken into consideration for once, we all really do appreciate it more than y’all know.” Sky Arts said that the decision to axe Elizabeth, Michael And Marlon was made “in light of concerns expressed” by the family, and was supported by Fiennes. “We set out to take a lighthearted look at reportedly true events and never intended to cause any offence. Joseph Fiennes fully supports our decision,” a spokesman said. After images were published online showing Shakespeare In Love star Fiennes as Jackson and Stockard Channing as her godmother, Dame Elizabeth Taylor, Ms Jackson wrote on Twitter: “I’m so incredibly offended by it,

On his new album Americana, Diesel pays tribute to the artists that inspired the musician he would become – one of our nation’s most lauded, accomplished and hardworking rock guitarists and singers – by putting his own unique stamp on a collection of classic songs. The doorway into Americana, is a creation all Diesel’s own. Hank’s Dream was a melody that circled his head during three sleepless nights in New York last year and its title refers to the spark that brought the Lizottes to Australia all those years ago:

Dad Hank’s dream of a different life on the other side of the world. Uncannily, around the same time, one of the Lizzotte boys stumbled upon

a photo from Hank and Theresa’s wedding album. “It’s this incredible black and white photo of them in front of this in front of this ridiculously big old Buick that they borrowed – they got married on a shoestring and borrowed a car from the Navy,” Diesel says. “There they are, in front of it, all dressed up … that’s classic Americana to me. So when this album happened I was like, ‘There’s my cover’.” So now, 27 years after he busted out of the garage and into the Australian psyche with Don’t Need Love and Soul Revival, it’s time for fans to circle back and hear the songs that made the man. Americana. Diesel and his band perform Americana at Chelsea Heights Hotel on Friday February 10. Tickets start from $35 and are available from the venue or Moshtix.

59 Rockers Soultrain Debut By Terri Lee Fatouros

ock’n Roller’s get ready for a Sunday Soultrain debut that’s been a long time coming. Peninsula pride Diddy Reyes and his boys are headed for Davey’s on Sunday February 5 and we’re tipping there’ll be a few in tow. Mod poppers, the 59 Rockers are a black rockabilly hard hittin’ band that leave you gasping for more. During the late 50’s a cool hybrid music trend of black mod rockabilly dripping with greased hip sprung up and exploded worldwide. Its up-beat boogie imbued itself into the minds of the masses, forcing them to listen at first then loving embrace it so much they simply went wild over it. Front man & vocals, Diddy

Reyes, Jordie Fitzgerald, drums and Ben Goodall on double bass have embraced this powerful genre and relives the era with shows mixed with original influences that make out

for wild danceable upbeat boogie gigs. This is one hell of a dance party gig you won’t want to miss out on peeps! Diddy Reyes 59 Rockers hit Sunday Soultrain at

Davey’s Hotel, Nepean Hwy in Frankston, February 5. Show starts at 3pm and is a free event. For more details visit www.daveys.com.au or find Sunday Soultrain on Facebook.

GEMINI Keep in mind that not everyone is honest. The hard truth is that people tend to tell little lies or exaggerate things just to get their way. Don’t get hung up on what seem to be okay. Just trust your instincts on this.

CANCER The planets beam their light on your practical side this week, Cancer. You are more grounded and persistent which gives you a great overview on the things you do at work. You are a born leader and this shows in the way you deal with things. LEO Enjoy a wonderful artistic vibe on the middle of the week moving forward. This will make you a bit busy but will put you in the spotlights which you will definitely enjoy. Try to be realistic with your goals though. VIRGO You’ll get an extra dose of energy and patience this week, Virgo. You easily take care of your daily routine and tasks. You’re a spirited sign but isn’t always the most enthusiastic, so when when Mars, sings its mantra of stamina, ambition and achievement, you’ll spearhead an impossible mission a la Star Wars. LIBRA It would be a shame if you give up on something because you think it might just go wrong. You could develop a beta version before you give it a roll. You could always try to change something to make it different. Try out a new approach. SCORPIO Your new year’s resolution should include trimming your expectations on yourself and of others, Scorpio. Which of those are realistic and which do you need to pull out? Don’t feel back about bailing out on a promise. At least that way, people can draft a plan B instead of waiting for you to deliver. SAGITTARIUS Pay attention and react fast this week, Sagi. Career opportunities will come your way this week and it’s up for grabs. Use your network to strengthen your grip on the price. A word of warning: stay away from people you know could push your buttons. You don’t want any negative distraction to divert your eyes from the finish line. CAPRICORN This week is all above healing and moving on. Anything that involves cleaning, establishing personal relationships, starting anew and staying somewhere else will have a positive outcome. You might find yourself interested in alternative ways of healing. AQUARIUS There are a lot of things that you really need to experience, Aquarius, so it’s not enough to just think about them. You are a very dashing diva/dandy, so go ahead, dare and learn from your explorations. You could position yourself in an epic career advancement because of this. PISCES You’ll probably turn totally inwards or you might even be a bit possessive at some moments this week. You have the tendency to see things in black and white. No shades of grey for you. Try to control things and you won’t get into troubles with others.

ARIES The start of the week looks bright and sunny. Explore where your boundaries lie and push yourself to surpass them. If you’re the business type of an Aries, target a new venture. It could be a new branch or an expansion of your existing products or services.

TAURUS Your social life is blooming. You usually don’t really open up to strangers but you are letting your shields down this week. You’re in a mood to just enjoy the moment. You might meet someone interesting or get to know a different side of someone you already know.

SEA SHEPHERD SPOTS JAPANESE

WHALE POACHERS

ea Shepherd claims to have found a Japanese ship in the Australian Whale Sanctuary with a dead minke whale on its flensing deck. The Nisshin Maru whaler factory ship was spotted by the helicopter of Sea Shepherd’s MY Steve Irwin as the crew allegedly scrambled to hide the slaughtered whale with a tarp, while the fleet’s harpoons were also quickly covered. “The whale killers from the Nisshin Maru were caught red-handed slaughtering whales in the Australian whale sanctuary,” Ocean Warrior Captain Adam Meyerson said on Sunday. “The Steve Irwin has shut down their illegal operations and caught them trying to hide the evidence.”

It comes after Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe visited Australia.

A handout photo made available by activist group Sea Shepherd allegedly shows a dead Antarctic mink whale onboard the Japanese vessel Nisshin Maru in Antarctic waters in the Australian Whale Sanctury, 15 January 2017. According to the activist group, workers on the Japanese ship covered the whale with a blue tarp after being spotted. In 2014, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague ruled tha Japan’s antarctic whaling was illegal.

Choosing The Right Agent The most important part of selling or leasing your home is making sure that you have chosen the right agent. Make sure you feel comfortable enough that you can be honest with your agent, this person is going to be in your home, around your family and in many cases they will be privy to financial & personal information regarding you & your family. If you have an instant repour then you are half way there. Be sure the agent is experienced, ask them if they will be the one conducting your ‘Open for inspections’ & private viewings. Many agents have personal assistants or buyer agents who conduct the inspections and deal directly with the buyers rather than the experienced agent you’ve chosen and trusted to negotiate the sale of what may be your biggest asset. In-experienced agents lack confidence, experience & maturity when it comes to challenging & negotiating price. Knowledge of the property you are selling, the attributes it has to offer, the location & infrastructure such as shops and schools - this is important when it comes to challenging buyer objections regarding price. I always say that if a buyer gives me two reason not to buy your home or pay their highest price.. then I will give them 10 reasons why they have to. When you’re flying you want an experienced pilot in control at all times. Imagine if you were an hour into your flight and the pilot announces he is going to sleep, that his apprentice is going to take control for the remainder of the flight. Having an experienced agent in control of what may be your most valuable asset should guarantee a much safer and a less stressful Real Estate journey. Good Luck & Real Estate blessings to you!!

KIA STINGER HEADING FOR OZ

talking point of the North American International Auto Show in Detroit event before the doors have been thrown open, the new Kia Stinger has been confirmed for Australia. The sleek, powerful rear-wheel drive GT fastback sports sedan is expected to make it into Australian showrooms by the end of the third quarter this year. “This is a car you cannot help but be excited by,” Kia Motors Australia Chief Operating Officer Damien Meredith said. “It has all the attributes to appeal to the Australian enthusiast _ exciting design, a high-tech performance engine and gearbox combination and rearwheel drive. “The Stinger is the right car to take Kia, and the brand’s perception, to the next level in Australia. It is the type of car to add desire and excitement to Kia’s core values of style, reliability and value.” The Stinger will arrive in Australia with the 3.3-litre V6 twin turbo driving the rear wheels through an eight-speed transmission. While final specifications are still to be settled the Stinger is expected to

Rafael Nadal with the Kia Stinger during a Kia Key handover ceremony at Garden Square in Melbourne Park January 15, 2017

produce 272kW of power at 6000rpm and an impressive 510Nm of torque from 1300rpm through to 4500rpm. There is an expected 0-100km/h sprint of 5.1 seconds. “Those are the sort of performance figures which will give the Stinger credibility in any company and add an emotional element to the already compelling practical reasons _ 7-year warranty, 7-year capped price service and 7-year roadside assist _ for considering a Kia,” Mr Meredith said. Designed in Kia’s European studio in Frankfurt under the hand of Kia’s head of design Peter Schreyer and developed over extensive testing on the grueling Nurburgring under the watchful eye of

KMC’s performance and engineering guru Albert Biermann, the Stinger is an uncompromising rendition of the true gran turismo ethos _ nimble and fast, luxurious and quiet with the perfect balance of ride and handling. “I think for the Kia brand, the Stinger is like a special event,” Biermann said. “Because nobody expects such a car, not just the way it looks, but also the way it drives. It’s a whole different animal.” To further define the car for Australia, the KMAu ride and handling team will refine the suspension and tuning to ensure Australian buyers are presented with a local tuning package which best suits Australia’s testing roads.

Vegas tests driverless electric shuttle

here’s a new thrill on the streets of downtown Las Vegas, where high- and low-rollers alike are climbing aboard what officials call the first driverless electric shuttle operating on a public US street. The oval-shaped shuttle began running on Tuesday as part of a 10-day pilot program, carrying up to 12 passengers for free along a short stretch of the Fremont Street East entertainment district. The vehicle has a human attendant and computer monitor, but no steering wheel and no brake pedals. Passengers push a button at a marked stop to board it. The shuttle uses GPS, electronic kerb sensors and other technology, and doesn’t require lane lines to make its way. “The ride was smooth. It’s clean and quiet and seats comfortably,” said Mayor Carolyn Goodman, who was among the first public officials to take a ride on the vehicle developed by the French

company Navya and dubbed Arma. “I see a huge future for it once they get the technology synchronised,” the mayor said on Friday. The vehicles have a range of about 145km for each electric charge and take about five to eight hours to recharge. The top speed of the shuttle is 40km/h, but it’s running about 24km/h during the trial, Navya spokesman Martin Higgins said. Side streets have been blocked to make a dedicated lane for it to pass traffic signals during the trial. Higgins called it “100 per cent autonomous on a programmed route”. “If a person or a dog were to run in front of it, it would stop,” he said. Higgins said it’s the company’s first test of the shuttle on a public street in the US. A similar shuttle began testing in December at a simulated city environment at a University of Michigan research centre. At a cost estimated at $US10,000

($A13,317) a month, Las Vegas city community development chief Jorge Cervantes said the vehicle could be costefficient compared with a single bus and driver costing perhaps $US1 million a year. The company said it has shuttles in use in Australia, France, Switzerland and other countries that have carried more than 100,000 passengers in more than a year of service.

NISSAN VMOTION 2.0 CONCEPT MAKES WORLD DEBUT

AT NORTH AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL AUTO SHOW – PREVIEWS FUTURE SEDAN DESIGN DIRECTION

issan recently signaled the future direction of the company’s sedan design direction and intelligentmobility technology with the world debut of the Nissan Vmotion 2.0 concept at the 2017 North American International Auto Show. The Vmotion 2.0 concept combines a high sense of style, emotional design, space, comfort and technology to make the mobility experience seamless for busy professionals. Also making its auto show debut was the 2017 Nissan Rogue Sport, which is designed to expand the audience for Nissan’s topselling Rogue crossover when it goes on sale this spring (USA) at Nissan dealers across North America. Presenting the pair of new vehicles were José Muñoz, Chief Performance Officer, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.; Chairman, Nissan North America, Inc., who also provided details on

“We see design as the ultimate expression of how customers see themselves” Nissan’s record 2016 sales; and Shiro Nakamura, Senior Vice President, Chief Creative Officer, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., who addressed the Vmotion 2.0 concept’s combination of unique style and advanced Nissan Intelligent Mobility technology. “In 2016, Nissan surpassed 1.5-million vehicle sales in the United States for the second consecutive year. Our #1 selling Rogue crossover was a key contributor to this all-time record sales, with Rogue sales up nearly 15 percent,” said Muñoz. “The new 2017 Rogue Sport, with its combination of fun-todrive and advanced Nissan Intelligent Safety Shield technologies, is guaranteed to help keep our momentum going strong into the new year.” Available Rogue Sport technology includes an

HONDA RIDING ASSIST MOTORCYCLE WINS THREE AWARDS AT CES 2017

Around View® Monitor (AVM) with Moving Object Detection (MOD)1, Forward Emergency Braking with Pedestrian Detection2, Intelligent Cruise Control3 and Rear Cross Traffic Alert4. The Nissan Vmotion 2.0 concept offers hints at the future of “Nissan Intelligent Mobility,” the company’s roadmap to achieve zero emissions and zero fatalities. “Technology is evolving. So is design. At Nissan we see design as the ultimate expression of how customers see themselves, but also an expression of the vision and values of our brand,” said Nakamura. “Vmotion 2.0 previews what the future designs from Nissan will be. And it is an insightful proposition of what the future sedan could be in the coming years.” The Nissan Vmotion

2.0 concept’s dramatic silhouette is characterized by a “floating roof,” with a line flowing seamlessly from the steeply raked A-pillars to the trunk lip. An extended wheelbase shows off the car’s generous cabin, while the distinctive body surface is defined by Nissan’s”Emotional Geometry” design language. The dynamic high-tension body is crafted in a warm silver paint with copper undertones. With a layered effect for the paint finish, a glimpse of the body at different angles reveals a subtle but different hue. The new Rogue Sport and Vmotion 2.0 concept will be on display at the Nissan booth throughout the North American International Auto Show, which runs from Jan. 14th through Jan. 22nd at Cobo Center in downtown Detroit.

onda Motor Co., Ltd., has announced that the Honda Riding Assist motorcycle, a concept model of Honda’s selfbalancing motorcycle that was exhibited at CES 2017 – the world’s largest consumer electronics and technology tradeshow – has won three awards. The Honda Riding Assist motorcycle won the Best of CES 2017 “Best Innovation” and “Best Automotive Technology” awards as judged by Engadget1, the official partner of the Best of CES Awards, as well as the Popular Mechanics magazine’s2 Best of CES “Editors’ Choice Awards”. In a global debut at CES

2017, Honda unveiled its Riding Assist technology, which leverages Honda’s robotics technology to create a self-balancing motorcycle that greatly reduces the possibility of falling over while the motorcycle is at rest. Rather than relying on gyroscopes, which add a great deal of weight and alter the riding experience as announced by other companies, the Honda Riding Assist incorporates technology originally developed for the company’s UNI-CUB personal mobility device. Honda Riding Assist is Honda’s proposal to make touring and everyday use of motorcycles more fun.

ADAM VOGES TO CAPTAIN PM’S XI

ormer Test batsman Adam Voges will captain the Prime Minister’s XI next month when they host Sri Lanka in a Twenty20 clash. Sri Lanka, who face Australia in a three-match T20 series next month, are playing a warm-up game against the PM’s XI at Manuka Oval on the night of February 15. Voges knows both the Canberra venue and opposition well. “I’ve played two or three of the PM’s games now .. I’ve played a few Shield finals and a Big Bash final at Manuka, so I have plenty of experience

there now and looking forward to getting there again,” the Perth Scorchers skipper said. “Having toured Sri Lanka recently for the Test series, when they played exceptionally well, I think it (the three-match T20 series) is going to be a good series. “It’s a short tour for them, just a handful of Twenty20 games, but I think those spinners in any format of the game are a tricky proposition.” The timing of next month’s T20 series has been widely criticised as Australia’s best players will instead be in India preparing for a four-Test

series. There has been speculation Michael Clarke would either captain or coach the PM’s XI, but the West Australian was given the gig. Voges played the opening two Tests of the home 201617 summer but was dropped as part of the overhaul that followed a five-Test losing streak. The 37-year-old was unavailable at the time because of concussion, but national selectors have seemingly made the call Voges’ Test career is over. Voges, who boasted a Test batting average of 105.58 at one point last year during a

knock of 239 against New Zealand, is set to finish with 1485 runs at 61.87. “I’m delighted that Adam Voges will be available to captain the PM’s XI,” Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull said in a statement.” Voges joins the likes of Ricky Ponting, Matthew Hayden, Justin Langer, Brett Lee, Chris Rogers and Michael Hussey in captaining the PM’s XI, describing it as a “tremendous honour”. Manuka will host a doubleheader on February 15., with Papua New Guinea taking on an ACT XI in the curtain raiser.

Roberts has matured, FIGHTING PACQUIAO AT says new Bronco Mead HOME A DREAM FOR HORN

risbane centre James Roberts has matured and is ready to return to his best in the NRL this season, according to recruit David Mead. Roberts' career was hanging by a thread after he checked into a rehabilitation facility in Thailand last year, ending a debut season with the Broncos that was continually disrupted by injuries, suspensions and off-field incidents. But the 23-year-old is back on the right track after his first full preseason with Brisbane and poised to reunite with Mead, his former teammate at Gold Coast, on their right edge. "I've noticed an improvement in him as a person," said Mead, who played outside of Roberts for two seasons at the Titans. "He tells me he's feeling pretty happy and he's excited to play this year, so I'm excited for him. "Obviously he's got a lot good people around him here at the Broncos and he's very well looked after." Mead has been training on the wing with the Broncos since starting

pre-season in November and is relishing the chance to play alongside Roberts again. "He likes to get early ball and just do what he can," he said. "With Jimmy, you can have three defenders and two attackers and he'll create something out of nothing. That's the type of player he is. I've scored a couple of tries off him (like that). "If he just gets back to playing instinctively, that's where his best football comes in." Mead, 28, has moved NRL clubs for the first time after starting his career with the Titans in 2008. Gold Coast did not table him an offer to stay but Mead said he has moved on and settled in his new environment. "It took me about three or four weeks to feel at home," he said. "Obviously I was still nervous those first couple of weeks, but we've got a crew who turned up here all new as well, at the same time. "We've just been hanging out and mixing with the boys. I've spoken a lot to Wayne (Bennett) since being here."

ustralian boxer Jeff Horn says fighting “absolute legend” Manny Pacquiao in his home town of Brisbane would be beyond a dream. The 28-year-old was on Wednesday confirmed to fight the welterweight world champion, and told Fox Sports that the opportunity to fight Pacquiao at Suncorp Stadium would be massive. “It would be beyond my dreams, I never thought I’d be fighting my first world title in Brisbane - at home,” Horn told Fox Sports. “It’s going to be like an Origin match. It’s going to be

massive,” he said. The venue for the fight is yet to be confirmed - with Sydney, Melbourne, the US and UAE also said to be in the running - but Suncorp Stadium is believed to be the favoured option. Horn, a former school teacher, is undefeated after 17 professional fights. Although Pacquiao, 38, is already the heavy favourite to win the bout,0 Horn believes he has an edge on the fighter. “I think he’s underestimating my skill and I think that’s going to be his downfall,” Horn said.

THOMAS ROMPS TO RECORD US GOLF VICTORY

ustin Thomas had five birdies in seven holes as he wrapped up a start-to-finish victory in record style at the Sony Open in Hawaii. The long-hitting American clinched his fourth PGA Tour title, his second in a row and third of the young season, after firing a five-under-par 65 at Waialae Country Club for a 27-under total of 253 on Sunday (Monday AEDT). The 23-year-old won by seven shots from England's Justin Rose while Jordan Spieth was outright third on 19 under. Thomas, who had opened

with a magical 11-under 59 to take control of the tournament, signed off with a comfortable two-putt birdie at the par-five last to add yet another slice of golf history to his dominant week of multiple records. His aggregate for 72 holes eclipsed the previous PGA Tour low of 254, set by Tommy Armour III at the 2003 Texas Open. Marc Leishman was the best-placed Australian in a tie for 20th after closing with a round of two under to finish at 12 under.

Maradona hopeful of landing Napoli role D

iego Maradona is in talks to work with his former Serie A side Napoli, where the football legend is idolised nearly 27 years after leaving the club. Maradona, who is in Naples for a theatrical event on Monday celebrating the club's first title win, met with Napoli President Aurelio de Laurentiis on Saturday night. "It was the first step," Maradona said Sunday. "First of all I have to sort out the problems I have here in Italy, then I can work for Napoli in Italy and in the world. "We have to do things well because I want a winning team, a team that can play on level terms against Juve, Inter, Milan and Roma." An Italian court is scheduled to finally end the decades-long battle between Maradona and the Italian government on February 28.

Maradona has always insisted he does not owe any of the millions in back taxes the government claims are due. The 56-year-old Argentine arrived in the city on Saturday night and was greeted by more than 100 cheering Napoli fans, who had waited in freezing temperatures outside his hotel for a glimpse of their idol. "It continues to surprise me," Maradona said. "There are kids who have never seen me play and today they get excited and cry for a photo with me. "Every day I feel the affection and love the Neapolitan people have for me." Maradona led Napoli to their only two league titles in 1987 and 1990 and scored a club record 115 goals between 1984 and 1991.

SWEPSON ADDS FIZZ TO AUSSIE TEST SQUAD << cont. from front page... “I haven’t spoken to (Warne) but I’m sure when I do, I’ll have to shake his hand and thank him. Whether that helped or not, I’m extremely stoked that he said those comments.” Swepson, who has played 14 first-class games, joins fellow spinners Nathan Lyon, Steve O’Keefe and Ashton Agar in the squad for the four-Test series starting on February 23 in Pune. Lyon and O’Keefe are the incumbent spin twins from the third Test against Pakistan in Sydney, and only time will tell if Swepson unseats either of the New South Welshmen or the tourists opt for three slow bowlers. “He is an exciting young

legspinner, gives the ball a very good rip, he’s a wickettaking legspinner,” Australia’s interim chairman of selectors Trevor Hohns said. “At the end of the day, you have got to take wickets to win Test matches and given the opportunity we feel that he could play a part over there.” Swepson got the nod ahead of Australia’s limited-overs legspinner Adam Zampa. “We thought we would go for a more attacking legspinner more so than a defensive legspinner,” Hohns said. Agar played his two previous Tests in July 2013 while Maxwell played the last of his three Tests in October 2014. “I was hoping for a long time that it wasn’t going to be my last Test,” Maxwell told

reporters in Melbourne on Sunday. Matthew Wade has retained his wicketkeeping spot, as has opening batsman Matthew Renshaw for a tour which Hohns said would be tough. “We have a squad here that can perform well enough in those conditions to give a good account of itself,” Hohns said. “We know it’s very difficult over there. No country in the last 10 years probably has performed all that well over there or succeeded. “Somehow, some way, someone has to turn the tide. And we’re hoping that we can do that.” Hohns said Shaun Marsh’s versatility to bat anywhere in the order assured his return while Mitchell Marsh’s superior bowling was

preferred to fellow allrounder Hilton Cartwright, who played Australia’s last Test match. Only three fast bowlers - Mitchell Starc, Josh Hazlewood and Jackson Bird were included. Hohns said Wade’s retention as wicketkeeper, ahead of NSW gloveman Peter Nevill, was multi-faceted. “We know he can bat,” he said of Wade. “The thing with Matthew is, since his inclusion in the Test side, we feel his wicketkeeping has improved immensely. “Plus we don’t necessarily see it, but what he adds to the team environment and what he does behind the scenes is immeasurable.”

MATT GITEAU EARNS PRAISE IN TOULON RETURN

att Giteau has boosted Toulon in his return from a long injury lay-off as the French rugby side beat Sale in the European Champions Cup. The 34-year-old Wallabies playmaker came off the bench in the second half having

overcome a broken ankle suffered playing for Australia in the Rugby Championship in August. The Top 14 side, also boasting former Wallabies James O'Connor at wing and flanker Liam Gill, scored two tries in the last four minutes to claim a 27-12 victory over

the English side. All Black Ma'a Nonu crossed early to give home side Toulon the lead at Stade Felix Mayol on Sunday (Monday morning AEDT). But the Sharks quickly hit back through a converted Sam James score to take a 7-5 lead at the interval. Toulon reclaimed their advantage through South African flyer Bryan Habana's try just before the hour and, with Sale responding immediately with their second try. It was the star-studded French side who finished the stronger as Jonathan Pelissie and Josua Tuisova both touched down. Sale boss Steve Diamond singled out opposition substitute Giteau in praising his side for their gallantry despite their 16th-straight Champions Cup defeat.

"The scoreline didn't reflect the game. The first 60-65 minutes it was a very good game, but their bench made the difference in the end," Diamond said. "Matt Giteau came on and made a big difference for them, but there was a lot of pride in our performance." Three-time winners Toulon meet Champions Cup holders Saracens next weekend and French centre Mathieu Bastareaud urged his side to improve. "We were concentrating too much on the bonus point too soon. We played very poorly, especially in the first half," Bastareaud said. "We have to be more disciplined and we have to make better use of our possession if we want to stay in this competition - we kicked too often and we weren't good at the breakdown."
