This week... From the editor Australia breathed a collective sigh of relief last week when Al Jazeera journalist Peter Greste was freed from an Egyptian jail after 400 days in captivity. In an interview after his release, Peter explained how important it was for him to remain healthy – physically, mentally and spiritually; his daily prison routine included meditation, study, eating well and exercise. He said he was most looking forward to watching sunsets, watching the stars, feeling the sand between his toes and spending time with people he loves – things he couldn’t do in jail. I thought of his words that evening while walking the dog. As the last vestiges of colour drained from the mauve twilight sky, a murder of crows circled overhead to roost in a towering gum, cawing to one another, while a luminous full moon shone through the branches. For a moment, I stood in wonder at this beauty surrounding me, thanking my lucky stars to be free to experience it. In this edition we introduce our new food writer, Tessa Connelly, and property writer, Lyndall Larkham. Check out their fresh contributions in our Taste and Real Estate sections. Reasons to be grateful this week include photo-shoot fun at Stromlo Forest Park, Mother & Son on stage, cool nights, home-grown tomatoes, twilight walks, personal freedom and that hour of blissful ignorance before tuning into the morning news. - Julie Samaras

news Australia Forum ‘essential’ infrastructure

nvesting in a new convention centre will provide significant returns to the ACT economy, according to the ‘Australia Forum – and its potential economic benefits’ report. Prepared by EY on behalf of the Canberra Business Chamber and Canberra Convention Bureau, the report states construction of the Australia Forum will result in a benefit cost ratio (BCR) of 2.4 over 20 years. Canberra Business Chamber CEO Chris Faulks said this “compares well with other convention centres and similar economic infrastructure projects”. “The expenditure of delegates attending Australia Forum events is estimated at $3bn in the first 20 years. This is $1.6bn more than the current convention facility is anticipated to bring into the economy,” Ms Faulks said. “Economic returns on offer from the Australia Forum could be even higher than the BCR suggests, as it does not take into account additional inputs to the local economy from people accompanying conference attendees or the boost to tourism from extended stays and people returning for a holiday in the future.” Property Council of Australia’s ACT Executive Director, Catherine Carter, welcomed the report and said “a new convention centre is an essential piece of infrastructure for our growing capital – one that will create jobs, boost business confidence

and help us build our city for the next century”. Ms Carter said the next step is for the ACT Government to develop a robust long-term infrastructure plan for the city, which also outlines how projects will be funded. “Despite operating in a constrained economy, a range of significant projects – from City to the Lake to Capital Metro – are currently being rolled out. It is essential that we determine our priority projects, develop a plan and work to a timetable to ensure we deliver them.” According to Ms Faulks, the ACT Government has committed to having the Australia Forum at investment ready stage by 2016. While commending the government for providing funding in the 2014-15 Budget to develop a business case and functional design for the Australia Forum, she said the $8m earmarked in the forward estimates “needs to be allocated in the upcoming budget to ensure work can continue beyond 30 June 2015”. In a step forward for the project, ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr announced that local firm Guida Moseley Brown (GMB) and Romebased architect Massimiliano Fuksas have been appointed to develop a reference design for the centre. The $500m-$700m project will provide Canberra with an iconic new convention centre. Mr Barr said “selecting an initial design is an important milestone in making the new

convention centre investment-ready”. A nine-member judging panel unanimously chose the “poetic and sculptural treatment of architectural form” of the initial design by Fuksas + GMB from a shortlist of seven teams. The judging panel included chief executive of the National Capital Authority Malcolm Snow, ACT Government Architect Alastair Swayne, Canberra Convention Bureau chief executive Robyn Hendry, Australian Institute of Architects Gold Medallist John Denton, and City to the Lake project director Tim Xirakis. The panel was chaired by Ian Wood-Bradley, planning and design adviser to the City to the Lake project.

Plans to transform ACT parking

The ACT Government is proposing a trial of smart parking technologies designed to save time, reduce traffic congestion and provide a better user experience than current parking systems.

The ACT Government is calling on the public for feedback on plans to transform parking in the ACT through the implementation of smart parking technologies, making it easier for Canberrans to find and pay for parking. A public discussion paper outlining the key features of smart parking technology, ‘Smart Parking – transforming parking in the ACT’, is available on the ACT Government’s Time to Talk website for consultation until Friday 6 March. ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr made a joint announcement with Minister for Planning Mick Gentleman on Friday 6 February, stating the ACT Government is committed to urban renewal.

“As part of this commitment and as our city grows, we are looking at ways we can make parking more convenient, so it is easier for Canberrans to plan their travel and to mix car use with other forms of transport, including buses, cycling or walking,” the Chief Minister said. “Smart Parking is a system that is able to capture real time information on parking occupancy by using technology such as inground sensors. Using smart phone apps and intelligent traffic signs, smart parking systems then guide people to an available parking space. This in turn saves drivers time, reduces traffic congestion and provides a better overall user experience,” he said.

Property Council of Australia’s ACT Executive Director, Catherine Carter, said Canberra’s low population and wide geographic spread means car parking is an important issue. “While we must embrace public transport, we must also provide options for people who want to drive into our city and town centres,” Ms Carter said. “Accurate data on car parking usage patterns will enable us to make informed decisions about future development across Canberra, and particularly in Civic where car parking is not evenly distributed.” To read the Smart Parking issues paper, visit timetotalk.act.gov.au/consultations

Wayne mints a memorable career

rom advancements in master tooling to the utilisation of robots and changes in currency, Wayne Hennock has witnessed significant developments during his time at the Royal Australian Mint. Currently working as a Planning and Scheduling Officer, Wayne first applied for a job at the Mint 39 years ago, when he was 17 years old. As the Mint prepares to celebrate its 50th anniversary, Canberra Weekly caught up with Wayne to reflect on his time at the national institution. Originally thinking he would be a fitter machinist or carpenter – as his father used to build steam trains on which he would help out – it was the Mint instead that came calling. Responding to an ad for a fitter and turner machinist, Wayne started his career at the Mint in the Tool Room and over the years has worked in just about every area including the Coin Hall, Drawing Office, Engraving, Die Polishing and

Blank Preparation. “When I first started there was a lot to learn… we were very lucky we had a lot of people here with a lot of coinage knowledge,” he says. Reflecting on the Mint’s history, Wayne says there have been plenty of changes including the development of the foyer area which used to house melting furnaces, while the Mint now outsources blanks, something they used to do in-house. “To get a master tool, the actual tool to make the die, has also changed,” he says. “From the concept stage, a sculptor would cut into plaster by hand, usually taking a week to complete, which was then reduced into the master tool over a period of three days. Now it is done on computer which is sent to a computerised engraving machine which cuts it out which can be achieved within a day.” Robots, or Automated Guided Vehicles, have also played a role in reducing the amount

of manual labour required. Fifty years ago the Mint was a 24-hour operational factory with today’s technology now creating efficiencies in production. The Mint currently uses five different robots including Titan, a machine which picks up blanks and feeds them to the presses. Wayne says when he first started at the Mint “almost 400 people were working here” and “at that time we were doing 1c and 2c coins, which was about 40 per cent of our capacity”. He was at the Mint when the 1c and 2c coins were phased out as well as during the introduction of the $1 and $2 coins. One of his most memorable projects was being involved in the 2000 Olympic Games medals program. “It’s a really good place to work and there are a lot of nice, friendly people here,” Wayne says but he admits even he has wondered “where do all the coins go?”. - Allison Redman

Go behind-the-scenes at the Mint This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Royal Australian Mint which was established in Deakin in 1965 to enable Australia to go through the biggest monetary and economic change since Federation – the introduction of decimal currency. Built between 1962 and 1964, the Mint was officially opened by His Royal Highness, Prince 8

Philip on 22 February 1965 and was the first wholly Australian mint in the country. Since opening, the Mint has been the sole provider of Australia’s circulating coins, producing over 14.5 billion coins to date. About five billion of them are in circulation today. To celebrate its 50th anniversary, the Royal Australian Mint is hosting an Open Day on

Saturday 21 February from 8.30am to 4pm. The family-friendly day offers visitors the chance to take a rare walk through the secure production areas of the Mint factory while coin production is in process ($5 per adult; children 16 and under free). The newly refurbished viewing gallery will also be on show, featuring new interactive elements for visitors.

capital hill Looking over the precipice n his 509th day as Prime Minister, Tony Abbott had what he described as a near death experience. Forty per cent of his party room wanted him gone as their leader. The rest gave him a chance to retrieve his and the government’s parlous situation. The PM told journalists crowded into his courtyard: “We have shown the Australian people that we have looked over the precipice and we have decided we are not going to go down the Labor Party path of a damaged, misguided and dysfunctional government”. That of course begs the question, how did it get to this? Labor’s Bill Shorten didn’t miss when he shot back, “Tony Abbott promised he would run a stable and united government. This is his biggest broken promise yet”.

Ironically Abbott seems to agree. He’s now promising: “The solution to all these things is good government, and good government starts today”, and in case you missed it he repeated, “Good government starts today”. He’s promising for the umpteenth time to be more consultative and to institute new protocols between himself, his office and his ministers and back bench MPs. But one of the 39 who voted to dump him shakes her head in frustration. She says, “Process is not what will convince the voters, only good outcomes and policies.” Of course the most compelling evidence of how a government is travelling is the opinion polls and there Abbott and his government are deep in the abyss. Forget all the talk of his front

bench feeling locked in to vote for him. The biggest single stumbling block for Malcolm Turnbull was a couple of dozen MPs who were there when he was leader before and failed. “They don’t believe he has changed,” one of them told me. They are giving Tony Abbott a last chance to show he has and that he is winning the public back to the Liberals. Another measure of the government’s standing is what Liberal politicians are being told by their constituents and branch members. The man who moved the spill against Abbott, WA backbencher Luke Simpkin, says he was inundated with complaints about the Prime Minister over the summer break. Simpkin is no warm and cuddly lefty. He is at the conservative end of the party. He

is now looking for results; results that will save the large number of government members who have margins of 10 per cent or less. All eyes will now be on the May Budget and how that is received. The problem is the overhang of the 2014 economic prescription. The Prime Minister is still committed to battling that through the Senate. Labor says the government is still committed to cut pensions, family assistance and help for young job seekers. In response, Tony Abbott says a new families and childcare package is on the way, a tax cut for small business and initiatives for jobs. If all of that doesn’t pass muster, Tony Abbott will be looking for a new job before the year is out.

political capital Did Seselja back the wrong horse? ed Seselja ended up on the winning team after this week’s Liberal leadership wrangle, but did he back the right horse? Senator Seselja announced before Monday’s spill motion that he was sticking with Tony Abbott because “we have seen what happened to the previous government when they got in the habit of changing leaders”. But as the ACT’s representative in the States/ Territories’ House, did he do the right thing by the people he represents? After all, the ACT has not fared particularly well under Tony Abbott’s Prime Ministership. For starters, the public service has copped a shellacking. It may not be any different under another leader, but the decisions taken by the Abbott government have done untold damage to the community Senator Seselja represents. Malcolm Turnbull has indicated

a more sympathetic approach to the public service – maybe that should have figured in Senator Seselja’s thinking. ACT Liberal Leader, Jeremy Hanson, took a stand against Tony Abbott last year over his decision to relocate 600 federal public service jobs to Gosford. “I’d rather not be at odds with the Prime Minister, but what I’m doing is standing up for Canberra,” Mr Hanson said at the time. And, of course, Tony Abbott, like John Howard before him, has refused to call Canberra home. It’s not a big issue, but it’s symbolic. I think it’s outrageous that our Prime Minister won’t live at the Lodge. Imagine if David Cameron decided he wouldn’t live at Number 10. It’s an issue our local Members should be fighting for. Senator Seselja’s support for Mr Abbott is a little surprising, given

that the Prime Minister had backed Gary Humphries during the messy preselection tussle. Alone it could have been justification for voting for a spill. But more than anything, the best interests of Canberra should always be first and foremost, for all our elected representatives. Last year Mr Humphries called on the ACT Liberal Party to stop being “Abbott’s foot soldiers”. He wanted the party to stand up and fight for Canberra, in the face of a vicious attack by the Commonwealth. Senator Seselja may well argue that he was putting the best interests of Australia first this week, because God only knows the country needs a period of leadership stability. But it would be interesting to know what his constituents think. … GIVEN THE GOINGS-ON in

Next generation steps up he ActewAGL Royal Canberra Show 2015 is promising to be a fun-filled event with an adventure for everyone, and off on their very first adventure is the inaugural Canberra Royal Next Gen (CRNG)

2015 youth group. The CRNG 2015 is a youth committee with a focus on promoting youth as part of the Royal National Capital Agricultural Society (RNCAS) and ActewAGL Royal Canberra Show, with a total of 22

young members aged between 13 and 25. The CRNG are all passionate about showing, stewarding and becoming part of the RNCAS. CRNG member, 15-year-old Emily Patterson, says their plan is to engage with young people by spreading the word via social media. “We’ll be introducing a Facebook group soon, but we’re running an Instagram competition for people under 25 years old, where they take a picture at the Show from around the grounds and upload it using the hashtag #CRNG15. We will have a panel of three judges that will select the winner after the fireworks, and there will be a prize for first place,” she says. The CRNG will also have a Snapchat profile, CRNG15, to share images from around the showgrounds during the show. CRNG members will be competing in a Youth Farmers

Challenge in which teams of four race against time to be the first to complete a range of activities. “The Youth Famers Challenge is running in the main arena on Friday night and on Saturday. People will see us compete in a bunch of fun activities like a gumboot throw, roll a wool bale, put together a poly pipe joint, hay bale throw, find an egg in a bucket of flour using just a utensil held in between your teeth, drenching of sheep, car tyre change, and an egg and spoon race across a slippery detergent floor. It should be really fun and we hope to get lots of people involved, especially if it gets more young people to come on board and join our committee after the Show,” Emily says.

Rachel Vance and Claire Matthews with sisters Cordelia and Octavia Whatman, and Alexandra Matthews. Rachel and Claire founded Liver Kids Australia in 2013 in response to the lack of general awareness, support and funding around childhood liver disease in Australia.

ordelia Whatman is starting Year 3 soon, loves swimming, painting and is fascinated by Tasmanian Tigers. Bright and bubbly three-year-old Alexandra Matthews can’t get enough of Frozen and Peppa Pig. The two Canberra girls have one very special thing in common – they have both survived liver disease. Cordelia and Alexandra were born with Biliary Atresia, a life-threatening condition in infants in which the bile ducts inside or outside the liver do not have normal openings. Cordelia’s mother, Rachel Vance, says before Cordelia was diagnosed with liver disease she hadn’t been aware that children so young could be affected. “Shortly after Cordelia was born, she was diagnosed with Biliary Atresia. She had jaundice, which is yellow skin, and when she cried her tears were even yellow. We tested everything. She was listed for a liver transplant in November 2007 and when we finally had a compatible liver, I remember the surgery took so long, almost 12 hours… when she was recovering the first thing I noticed was that her skin wasn’t yellow,” Ms Vance says. Claire Matthews says after her daughter

Alexandra underwent care and a successful liver transplant surgery at Sydney’s Westmead Children’s Hospital, she wanted to help others going through the difficult journey. “A social worker put Rachel and I in touch, we founded Liver Kids Australia and we aim to contribute to the work of the Liver Transplant Unit in Westmead with whatever funds we can raise plus provide support to families,” she says. “There aren’t that many charities out there that promote awareness of how crucial organ donation is, but the Gift of Life’s DonateLife Walk is coming up. That walk is wonderful and shows the community a positive outlook towards organ and tissue donation.” Now in its ninth year, the Gift of Life’s DonateLife Walk 2015 encourages people to discuss organ and tissue donation with relatives and friends, and formally register their donation decision on the Australian Organ Donor Register.

In some cases, Peter says designers work to a theme or concept nominated by the individual institutions to highlight and celebrate their cultural offerings. “The type of content we are asked to design can also influence how challenging the creative process is,” he says. “Decorative elements are somewhat easier to work with, as opposed to narrative treatments or characters, which require a more adaptive approach and clever ideas to make them ‘translate’ well onto the building, especially in the case of more ornate architecture.” Each of the six institutions will have its own custom technical design, specification and layout. It takes a team of seven technicians about five days to set up and program all of the sites. When it comes to the challenge of working outdoors, Peter says it can be a “very unforgiving setting for projection” as you can’t control the environment. “It is rare that we will have a direct front-on angle from which we can project due to trees, lamp poles and other potential obstructions.” To overcome this, The Electric Canvas team make detailed site inspections and use highly accurate

laser survey techniques so all of these factors can be studied during the technical design phase. They also use custom projection modelling tools to plan each site layout and predict things such as brightness and resolution, which are “vital to the success of the projections”. “Our artists need to take ambient or transient light sources into account at all times during the design process and they have to consider every angle of a building from the public’s point of view”. Weather is also a big factor but Peter says they use “reliable custom-designed infrastructure to guard our equipment against the elements and our amazing crew always gets the job done, come rain, hail or shine”. In addition to the architectural projections, there will be an interactive display of powerful robotic searchlights that can be controlled by the public to create grand structures of light high in the night sky above Canberra. As in past years, The Electric Canvas is also participating in an artist mentoring program, where they assist other artists to realise their creative vision through the art of architectural projection. Projections are expected to be on during Enlighten 8-11pm on Friday and Saturday nights, 8-10pm every other night. - Allison Redman

Death Cap warning

Call 1300 141 777 Email energyadvice@act.gov.au Web www.actsmart.act.gov.au 26

Death Cap mushrooms have once again been found in the ACT, prompting a reminder from ACT Chief Health Officer Dr Paul Kelly to people not to pick or eat any wild mushrooms. In the past 15 years, there have been four fatalities and a number of poisonings associated with Death Cap mushrooms in the ACT. Dr Kelly said Death Cap mushrooms can easily be confused with edible wild mushrooms and “it can be extremely difficult for even experienced collectors to distinguish the small button Death Cap from an edible mushroom”. “All parts of the Death Cap mushroom are poisonous, and eating just one can be fatal. Cooking the Death Cap mushroom does not make it safe,” Dr Kelly said. More information about the Death Cap mushroom is available online at health.act.gov.au

Dance dispels the hex

HIV/AIDS issue among his peers and set out to create an intergenerational conversation about AIDS history. Welsby was consumed by two years of research, reading biographies, watching documentaries and interviewing artists and activists who were in their youth during the 1980s AIDS crisis. He developed HEX with dancers Chafia Brooks and James Andrews into what he describes as a space between suffering and celebration. “After my friend Jason was diagnosed, he once said that the hex was never the virus itself, it was the fear and hatred.” After a successful launch at various festivals and with the backing of mainstream AIDS organisations, Welsby is embarking on a national tour of state capitals which will culminate in Canberra. “I love Canberra so much and it’s very special for me to perform in my home town and share the show with a local audience.” The show is a reflection on the nightmare of an epidemic that brutally damaged the gay community before Welsby and his peers were even born, but it is also a joyful celebration of what it means to be free. “HEX is about a spiritual

connection between generations. In the queer community we need to have inter-generational conversations because history is not handed down. When you become a part of the community it doesn’t come with a mentor or a set of parents. It’s usually relegated to your own generation. “The show reflects on the early years of the AIDS crisis and how devastating that was for the gay community, but it is matched with the contemporary experience of my generation inheriting this kind of trauma. When we came of age we realised something very serious had happened, and was still happening in a much more managed way. This show is kind of a reflection of collective healing.” Although it seems overtly political, HEX has enjoyed good reviews for the excellence of its story, dance and the craft of the show. “The show is really endorsed by the HIV and AIDS sector, and that’s important because it’s coming from the community it concerns, but I wanted to reach a broader audience and we have had great support from the arts community. “I am not trying to please everyone and being a queer artist is innately political. I don’t set out to be, but people ascribe that to the work. “It’s about the cultural impact on my community; how a generation of gay artists almost disappeared and a lot of audiences disappeared. I am aware of those absences so it’s about a spiritual relationship.” HEX, 1 March, Street Theatre. Tickets, $25. Bookings 6247 1223. - Diana Streak

Lauren Jackson will miss the remainder of the 2014/2015 Wattle Valley WNBL season for the University of Canberra Capitals after MRI scans revealed she will need further surgery on her injured knee. Head coach Carrie Graf said it’s disappointing news for Jackson, with the four-time Olympian, World Champion and Australian Opals and US Women’s National Basketball Association

player making an immediate impact since her long-awaited return to the court in November following an 11-month knee rehabilitation process. “She (Lauren) has been playing in pain since she re-joined her UC Capitals teammates in round 10; she was committed to playing out the current season but unfortunately her recovery hasn’t gone to plan,” Graf said.

Top results for cyclists Canberra-based cyclists have recorded some top results recently with podium finishes at a number of events. In downhill action at Thredbo, Canberra’s Ronja Hill-Wright placed second behind 2015 Junior World Champion, Tegan Molloy, in the elite women’s category while in the Under 19s men’s downhill, Jackson Frew earned himself a podium finish by placing third. Meanwhile, at the two

BMX national rounds held in Shepparton, Victoria, on 7-8 February, Caroline Buchanan claimed first on the Saturday but slipped out of contention on the Sunday to finish seventh. Despite the result, Buchanan retains the overall national series lead. Fellow team rider, Mikayla Rose, raced in the Champbikx 15 category and placed second on Saturday doing one better to win Sunday’s fourth national round.

DINING

Les Bistronomes Executive Head Chef, Clement Chauvin.

The cozy dining room at Les Bistronomes, ready for an influx of lunch guests.

Les Bistronomes in Braddon offers laidback fine dining with a focus on regional produce.

n the corner of Elouera and Mort streets in Braddon sits an unassuming restaurant frontage, adorned only by a string of twinkling lights. Inside, Les Bistronomes is abuzz. Abel Bariller greets us at the door with a hearty “Bonjour!” and leads us to our seats. The lighting is warm and low, and an exposed brick wall creates an intimate, rustic vibe.

Tender rabbit saddle, heirloom carrots and a zingy Dijon mustard sauce.

A diverse crowd fills the space – a romantic first date unfolds in the corner, small groups of friends chat loudly, and a party of retirees celebrate at a round table in the centre of the room. It’s mid-week, and the restaurant is full. The duo behind the owneroperator establishment – Clement Chauvin and Abel Bariller – both had their own extensive careers in the fine dining industry before pairing up to open Les Bistronomes last October. Chauvin runs the kitchen as Executive Head Chef, while Bariller is the Restaurant Director and an internationally renowned sommelier and wine judge. The wine list is meticulously curated and features predominantly local and French varieties. We’re in good hands. There’s a ‘postcard’ from France placed face down on our table. Flipped over, it reveals a succinct menu. A small selection of pre-entrees are perfect for sharing, including the classic escargot in garlic butter and a charcuterie platter with rillette. There are four entrees, but looking around the

restaurant, the pork belly appears to be the favourite. The ‘Les Plats’ options for mains are similarly pared back; a steak with red wine jus, rabbit saddle, fish, and a tomato, leek and goat cheese tart. Planning ahead allows you to pre-order the impressive ‘plates for two’– the beef wellington that Chauvin perfected while working under Gordon Ramsay, or a whole, ash-encrusted duck which turns heads as it is marched through the restaurant, still smoking. French cuisine has, at times, suffered a reputation for being excessively rich and predictable. However, the past few years have seen a revival of the French bistro, most notably in New York and London. Bariller agrees that a shift is under way. “I think there is a revival, to be honest. At the moment, a lot of trendy things are happening, lots of experimental, fusion-type projects. But I think people want classic, genuine food as well.” Indeed, the principles behind increasingly popular wholefood diets, ‘locavore’ eating and ‘slow-foods’ are consistent with the emphasis on quality produce that underpins

There’s no pastry like French pastry. This shortcrust strawberry tart is paired with lemon verbena and a glossy liquorice ice cream.

French cuisine and informs the seasonal menu at Les Bistronomes. “We’ve got two gardens – one at Clement’s place and one at my place,” says Bariller. “We get around 80 per cent of our protein from small farmers around Canberra, the fish from the South Coast. We try to grow as much as we can – all the carrots are from my garden. White carrots, heirloom carrots, basil, herbs. It’s a bit of extra work, but we believe it makes a difference.” Les Bistronomes, 26 Elouera Street, Braddon. Tues-Sat: lunch 12-2pm, dinner 6-9.30pm.

A POSTCARD FROM FRANCE

GREEN SKILLET OMELETTE

As a newcomer to Canberra, something I’m appreciating is the breadth of local, fresh produce available in the region. I love visiting the farmer’s market on a Saturday morning and choosing my seasonal fruit, vegetables and herbs for the week ahead. The following recipe is from the e-book Summer by nutritionist and blogger Meg Yonson of megandveg.com and I Quit Sugar. I often adapt it by adding handfuls of spinach or kale for extra nutrients. This simple take on a French classic is perfect for breakfast, lunch or a quick dinner. - Tessa Connelly Serves 2

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

time out

Paul and Kathryn O’Keeffe return to their home town of Canberra to perform in Circa’s latest production, Beyond, later this month.

CIRCUS THAT TOUCHES THE HEART

here were some gobsmacked spectators in Civic Square when husband and wife team Paul and Kathryn O’Keeffe were showing off their acrobatic skills. The couple were in Canberra to promote the Circa show Beyond and to visit family. It was also their fifth wedding anniversary. The O’Keeffes, who grew up in Canberra, are both professional performers who were part of Warehouse Circus and Quantum Leap dance ensemble. Although they have been with Circa for several years, this is the first time they have been in the same production. Circa is a Brisbane-based contemporary circus group which has three ensembles that tour the world. Artistic director Yaron Lifschitz says although the troupes have had extraordinary success internationally, particularly in Europe where physical theatre is popular, it is gratifying to bring the shows back to Australia. “What’s most satisfying to me is the chance to bring internationally successful productions direct to our regional Australian communities – direct from Buenos Aires to Port Macquarie, from Berlin to Toowoomba. In many ways, while we feel so lucky to enjoy considerable international success, it’s the chance to create moments of pure joy and fun for those closest to home that matters most. We aim to create circus that is honest, moving and touches the hearts of our audiences – this is the

most we hope for from any performance.” Beyond was born in Berlin and has travelled the world since, receiving glowing reviews. It is now touring Australia for the first time and will be in Canberra Theatre from 25 to 28 February. Paul and Kathryn haven’t performed in Canberra for years and are expecting all their family and friends to come watch the show. The show blends dynamic circus acts like trapeze and Chinese pole with cheeky feats of strength and bunny heads, set to a mix of show tunes, ballads and electronica. Paul says the cabaret style of the show is different to Circa’s other productions. “There are more characters. It’s a bit crazy but there are quite gentle movements.” As passersby watch on, Kathyrn effortlessly lifts herself onto a three-level stand into a graceful handstand in a movement she also does blindfolded. Paul says their group of seven performers are all similar in size and build and had to find novel ways to create the human towers for which Circa is renowned. “We all stand on each other at some stage, I even stand on Kat’s head,” he says. Circus performers require excellent timing, balance and strength but Paul says the most important element is trust. “You have to trust yourself, your partner and the rest of the group because you are always relying on somebody else.”

Although collaboration is essential, there is also an element of risk. “That’s what circus is about. We are constantly pushing ourselves. We are careful and there is a whole protocol in place, but we must push boundaries to make it new and fresh.” An act that may be just three seconds on stage might have taken a year to learn and perfect and all the performers have a range of skills, whether it’s tumbling, aerial or feats of strength. Kathryn, who trained as a dancer and was good at contortion, has pushed herself into different skills and is now focussed on basing, which requires supporting another performer. The couple have been together for 12 years but with long tours keeping them apart, they relied on Skype to keep in contact. “We love what we do but we have to because there are such long tours. This is the first year we have travelled together. It’s been a huge year being in eight countries,” she says. “We are based in Brisbane but are on tour most of the year. You get used to being on the road all the time and living out of a suitcase. If I buy something I have to think about what I will get rid of.” Circa will do a number of workshops with local community and school groups including Canberra Grammar School in preparation for their staging of Barnum later in the year, Melba High School and Warehouse Circus. - Diana Streak 41

Shen Yun Returns

Next Week

17–18 FEBRUARY 2015 CANBERRA THEATRE

All New 2015 Show With Live Orchestra

Enjoy Shen Yun’s Heavenly Music Tens of thousands of Canberrans have seen the classical Chinese dance and music shows of Shen Yun since 2007, when it first toured Australia— and every year, audience members keep coming back. It’s easy to understand why: the costumes and backdrops catch your eyes, the music stays in your ears, and the stories and values in a Shen Yun performance touch your heart and move your soul. Shen Yun’s orchestra and music composition have been praised as genius for their heavenly melodies—especially in finding a harmonious blending of the sounds of East and West, a feat that has more often ended in failure than success. The ability to seamlessly blend these two great systems to create one fresh, harmonious sound is what makes the Shen Yun orchestra experience unique. This is how the effect is achieved: A Western orchestra plays the foundation, while traditional Chinese instruments lead the melodies. The sound produced is uniquely pleasing to the

ear. The ensemble at once expresses both the grandeur of a Western orchestra and the distinct sensibilities of China’s 5,000-year-old civilization. The Chinese instruments include the erhu, dizi, pipa, and suona. All Chinese instruments are classified by their material construction into eight categories: jin (metal), shi (stone), tu (clay), ge (hide), si (silk), mu (wood), bao (gourd), and zhu (bamboo). Collectively, these eight classifications are known as the ba yin, or “eight sounds.” All materials used to make these instruments originate from nature, and the significance and symbolism of each is closely tied to its natural origin. While each of the Chinese instruments differs greatly in character, their interactions produce euphonious sounds that may surprise the listener. In fact, the emotions that these instruments are capable of invoking are as refined and subtle as they are complex. Through the performer’s technical excellence and emotive expression, any human emotion can be depicted.

Tickets: (02) 6275 2700 | Civic Square, London Circuit www.canberratheatrecentre.com.au

The focus of Chinese music is not merely on people, however. Perhaps due to the fact that their materials originate from the natural world, they are adept at evoking scenes both natural and heavenly. The things that Chinese music is capable of expressing are both lofty and profound. So, as you’re being dazzled visually by Shen Yun—pay attention to the music, too!

You will love the show. Book your tickets now.

Canberra is home to Australia’s largest glass studio facility and to nearly 80 embassies, so for the Canberra Glassworks to mount an exhibition that marries the two is a stroke of brilliance. Curator Ivana Jirasek has paired nine glass artists with eight different embassies: Helen Aitken-Kuhnen with Japan, Andrew Baldwin with Malta, Erin Conron with Belgium, Ben Edols and Kathy Elliott with Italy, Hannah Gason with France, Elizabeth Kelly with Finland, Klaus Moje with America and Lienors Torre with the Czech Republic. The result is a magnificent body of work that links international glass traditions to the cultural influence of those countries.

Over at Beaver Gallery, Canberra Glassworks’ technical manager Tom Rowney has an exhibition of his studio glass on until 3 March. Rowney, one of Australia’s master glass blowers, says he has always been attracted to the ‘glassiness’ of blown glass. “By my use of bright colours, fine graphic line work and shiny surfaces, I aim to showcase the unique qualities that can be achieved through this wonderful medium.” Also at Beaver is Judith White’s Aventurine green top, blown glass with incalmo and cane work, by Tom Rowney. Transit, a collection of richly textured paintings and works that reflect the interplay between form and space in the urban environment. “Abstract shapes and spaces refer to railway stations, city centres, bus terminals, parks, gardens, ponds and urban lakes; not specifically but with a strong imaginative reference to the transient energy, texture and movement of the urban landscape,” says White.

Time to tango Embassies are a great source of support for the arts, as illustrated by the popular Multicultural Festival. The Argentinian Embassy is sponsoring a concert that will bring the fiery nightlife of Buenos Aires to Canberra on 19 February at the ANU Great Hall.

Bald Archy is back As parliament continues to provide rich fodder for satirists and cartoonists, Canberrans can get their fill at the Bald Archy Prize exhibition which is on until 8 March. Jovial Joe by Tony Sowersby.

Founded by Peter Batey in 1994 as something of a joke against the Archibald portrait prize, the Bald Archy Prize has become an icon on the Australian art calendar (albeit an eccentric one), particularly because of the absurdist nature of the event, calling for irreverent comic and satirical images of well-known Australians. Batey says there are 47 finalists in this year’s exhibition, the winner of which will be chosen in July. Watson Arts Centre, Aspinall Street, Watson. Open daily 10am-4pm. Admission $5.

Lovelorn If you prefer not to be part of the mainstream’s confected romance on 14 February, there is a Music for Valentine’s Day concert at the Tuggeranong Arts Centre on Sunday 15 February. Jazz singer Meredith Adams and the Riverina Chamber Orchestra Collective will perform at 5pm. And still on romance, just as those curmudgeonly types at the National Capital Authority decree that love locks are verboten and will be removed with bolt cutters, ScreenACT has kindly arranged a screening of Locks of Love, the Canberra-made feature film bridging 11 stories of love at Palace Electric

on 15 February 6.30pm. Love locks are an international phenomenon in which lovers etch their names into padlocks attached to bridges, gates or fences. ScreenACT director Monica Penders says it will be a chance for Canberrans to see the film on the big screen before its national release on DVD. The location for the film was a set in Glebe Park with a purpose-built gate which was removed at the end of each shoot. “Therefore no local bridges were harmed in the making of this production. “It was a huge undertaking with nearly 300 people involved in the project. But we are very pleased with the results. It looks fantastic on the big screen and audiences have laughed and cried at the right moments. Always a good sign.” The NCA says the locks on the Carillion Bridge will be removed to prevent “any serious structural damage” occurring. “Padlocks will continue to be removed as part of an ongoing program.” We will wait and see if a cat and mouse game developers between lock lovers and bolt cutters!

SHAKESPEARE IN THE VINES “Something wicked this way comes” Act IV, Sc 1

As the sun sets, the dark night approaches and the witches come

CWM12900

Still Alice (M) While the tragedy of Alzheimer’s is indisputable in all circumstances and at all ages, Still Alice is an intensely moving story about 50-year-old Columbia professor of cognitive psychology Alice Howland (Julianne Moore) whose fastidiously-constructed communication-driven life abruptly submerges into murky confusion. Accentuating the supreme loss of those with the crippling disease, Richard Glazter and Wash Westmoreland’s adaptation of Lisa Genova’s novel is a passion project that transfixes viewers with compassion and realism. As the woman who learns to master the art of losing – her memory and herself – Moore’s performance is stunning. A contained Alec Baldwin portrays her devastated and ill-prepared husband, whilst Kristen Stewart is surprisingly good as the couple’s youngest unwavering daughter. The verdict: Thought provoking, resonant and poignant. 4.5 stars. - Joanna Baker

Book online

Wild (MA15+) Life-affirming and perspectiveinducing, Wild is a richly textured film about confronting life’s choices and rising above one’s regrets. A captivating emotional powerhouse story of adventure, tale of redemption and motherdaughter love story expertly amalgamated into one. Haunted by memories of her mother Bobbi (Laura Dern), years of reckless behaviour, heroin abuse and the destruction of every relationship including her marriage; Cheryl Strayed (Reece Witherspoon) makes a rash decision. Cramming her entire life into a backpack, Cheryl sets out on a life-changing hike to travel the thousand miles from Mexico to Canada on the US Pacific Crest Trail solo… with no experience. Witherspoon is wonderful, and like her character’s pack, drags viewers through each distressing, rewarding, traumatic and beautiful moment of the journey. The verdict: Embracing physical hardship to confront inner demons, Wild pierces the spirit. 4 stars.

The winners in Canberra Weekly’s latest round of competition draws are:

Macbeth is undoubtedly one of Shakespeare’s most powerful and popular works and Essential Theatre returns to Flint at Shaw Vineyard. Tempted by the prophecies of three mysterious witches, Macbeth’s ambition to be King of Scotland leads him into a nightmarish world of evil, deceit, and murder. This classic tale of power, superstition and madness will be like nothing audiences have seen from Essential Theatre. Macbeth will be raw, edgy and entertaining.

fi tness RESOLUTION OR TRAP?

y this time of year, many people start to hammer themselves about their New Year’s resolutions. Motivation is one thing, but to see people beat themselves up because they feel they’ve failed a resolution is harsh on them and the people around them. We all need to set ourselves some achievable health and fitness goals, and they should be achievable – not so far off the mark that you’re setting yourself a trap. Stop the self-sabotage! Everyone’s goals are different and we all need a different approach to achieve the right outcome for us. TIPS Here are my top tips to help you achieve your fitness goals: • Set realistic goals (small steps are the start of a lifetime journey) • Take ownership (your goals are yours not anyone else’s) • Be accountable for yourself (don’t blame others)

Roji Salon advertising moment

Ashleigh McPhee and Chloe Gray of Roji Salon aim to please, providing clients with excellent service and attention to detail that will leave you looking and feeling great.

Sublime styling at Roji Salon Tucked away in Hotel Hotel, Australia’s most awarded hotel, Roji Salon is a tranquil space where men and women can enjoy the very best in hair treatments and styles. roji (translated from the Japanese as “dewy path”) is a small garden that separates the teahouse (cha-shitsu) from the main house; a transitional zone between the outermost spaces of everyday life and the innermost sanctum of the sacred tea ceremony. This pathway to the tea ceremony is a metaphor for the salon. At Roji, clients enter a retreat from the outside world. In the beautifully designed space, you receive the highest level of care, and the most up-to-date styling advice. Clients are treated with Aveda products containing pure flower and plant essences, and offered a range of teas served in individually handcrafted teacups made by a local designer. Roji stylists Ashleigh McPhee and Chloe Gray provide a total experience for clients: elevating the processes of cleansing, cutting and styling to the same level of contemplative pleasure as the ritual tea ceremony, and ensuring that each client leaves Roji with feelings of renewal and rejuvenation. With almost seven years of experience in the world of hairdressing, Ashleigh also

has the skills to apply flawless, beautifully finished makeup. “I’ve always loved doing hair and makeup. When I have a client in, I really want to be able to make their day because hair is really important to people. I always like to talk with my clients about what styles they like, what they don’t like, what hairstyles they’ve had in the past to see what the client wants. I love to do hairstyles and makeup for events, and we have the Aveda Finishing Touch stand with a variety of lipsticks, lipglosses and makeup products to suit every occasion,” she says. Chloe knows the Aveda chemical-free range well, with her hairdresser training beginning in an Aveda concept salon. “People like the Aveda product range because it’s good for your hair and skin; it makes your hair soft, it’s great to work with, plus it smells luxurious,” she says. “I like to make clients feel good about themselves and they can come here to unwind and leave feeling and looking great. I like a challenge when it comes to hair – I speak with

clients about what they like about their hair, what lifestyle they have, like if they have to tie it back often to play sports, and discuss the type of style they expect to have at the end of styling,” Chloe says. The Aveda full spectrum hair colour range is up to 96 per cent naturally derived from plants, flowers, non-petroleum minerals and water. The full Aveda product range is available at Roji Salon.

Upcycled pallets lend themselves well to outdoor furniture and garden features.

UPCYCLING: PALLET POTENTIAL Whether you choose to build furniture or a raised garden bed for the backyard, the beauty of working with pallets is that the possibilities are only limited by your creativity. Kennards Hire has some handy tips to get the most out of pallets, as well as suggestions on what you can build to make your home or entertaining area that much more inviting.

Preparation

DIY ideas

• Once you’ve collected your pallets, inspect the wood to ensure it is of adequate quality and remove any protruding nails. • For a smooth surface, sand the wood down with a power sander and assemble the pallets as per your design before applying paint or varnish to prevent splinters. • It’s common to use whole pallets as table tops or lounges and then cut the remaining pallets into pieces for back rests, legs or bench tops. Use a table saw, circular saw or mitre saw for any lengths you need to cut to size.

Outdoor furniture: Wooden pallets lend themselves well to low couches and sun lounges. These can be a great addition to the outdoor entertaining area, especially if you can get some cushions or seats to throw on top. Benches, chairs and tables are other projects to consider. Indoor furniture: With a bit of creativity, pallets can be used effectively in the home as well. For instance, a glass top across some stacked pallets makes for a great coffee table. Garden pieces: Pallets are also ideal for raised flower beds, veggie gardens and planter boxes.

REAP WHAT YOU SOW

A handy berry locating and harvesting tool: this one is a small bamboo stake but chopsticks also work well. This handy tip makes finding and picking berries quick, easy and prickle free.

t’s that time of year again when one enters a state of sometimes barely maintained equilibrium: with veggies, herbs and fruit producing concurrently and with astounding vigour, there’s not a moment which cannot be filled with cutting, chopping, preserving, drying, creating or devouring. Like I said, utter madness! But reaping what you sow is rewarding and satisfying, the workload is temporary, and therefore, maintainable. My advice is to get organised and recruit help from family, friends and likeminded people. You could have community bakeoffs and passata parties; and sharing tips, tricks, resources and experience is a mutually beneficial endeavour I highly recommend.

Handy tips and tricks Berry finder: This handy tool, shared with me on a recent garden visit by an ever-efficient and practical gardener, makes finding and picking berries quick, easy and prickle free. Basically, it’s a stick or stick-like object around 30cm in length that you use to lift berry canes and foliage, revealing the often well-hidden berries beneath for harvesting. There’s no damage to the delicate fruit and foliage or the picker’s hands. You can craft one using household /garden objects such as bamboo stakes, timber doweling or chopsticks.

Seasonal shade house: On my garden visit I also got to see an alternative use for an old pulldown blind as a shade house for growing veggie seedlings. The blind was opened out as needed over a recycled timber frame, and

was used to extend the growing season of veggie seedlings by protecting them from hot summer suns and cold frosty mornings. It was particularly useful in establishing sensitive seeds and seedlings such as carrots.

Tailgate potting bench: I don’t know why this seemingly obvious epiphany came to me but it did and I am eternally grateful: vehicle tailgates, particularly those on four wheel drives such as dual cabs, make perfect mobile potting benches. Tailgates are the ideal working height and have a solid waterproof surface, all essential requirements when pottering with soil, plant

matter and the like. They can be hosed down and folded away when done, making them space efficient, too. My son was kind enough to replace his plastic tailgate liner with a flat and durable stainless steel one recently, and we also negotiated timings regarding my using said tailgate for this purpose.

Praise for revival

Open Gardens Australia has a number of spectacular gardens lined up for viewing in the coming months, before the organisation winds up its operations on 30 June 2015. Locally, upcoming open gardens include Diana’s garden at 72 Fidge Street, Calwell (14-15 February) as well as Cottage Garden at 18 Ebden Street, Ainslie, and Tina’s Mosaic Garden at 28 Vasey Crescent, Campbell (21-22 February).

A Canberra Spanish Colonial Revival home transformed by Canberra interior designer Nadine Neilson has been lauded by Australian House and Garden as showcasing a “traditional, tailored approach that marries the best European and American sensibilities”. The magazine has devoted eight pages of its February edition to feature the Reid home, owned by Journey Home designer Nadine Neilson and her husband, Antolin Feria. Neilson says the magazine’s editors became interested in her efforts to revive the heritage character of the home yet making it a welcoming, contemporary place in which to live.

The retail and services mix at Curtin shopping centre includes a supermarket, post office, bank, hair salon, numerous eateries and more.

Something for everyone

stablished in 1962, Curtin is a popular suburb in Canberra’s inner-south, conveniently located to both the Woden and City town centres. Named after John Curtin, the Australian Prime Minister between 1941 and 1945, the first homes were built in 1964. At the time, town planners adopted the Radburn model developed in the United States, with the homes facing onto a shared green space with no back fences. Originally streets near South Curtin

Primary (now Curtin Primary School) adopted this unusual model. Curtin has two primary schools and an abundance of parks, covering nearly 11 per cent of the suburb. Resident Michael James says the suburb appeals to “everyone”. “Families are a definite big part, but there are still a lot of ‘originals’ that have been here since the ‘60s,” he says. “It’s close to everything. It has a great local and friendly shopping centre, beautiful green belt, and a real community feel.” Its vibrant commercial centre

has a supermarket, a family-run post office and fish and chip shop, bank, and numerous restaurants and eateries. Curtin is surrounded by some of Canberra’s more affluent suburbs, including Yarralumla and Deakin. In August 2014, an architecturally designed property at 28 James Street broke the suburb record when it sold for $1.925 million. There are 43 Mr Fluffy-affected homes in the suburb, the second highest in the ACT after Kambah (with 103). On Australia Day in 1971, Curtin was the site of Canberra’s deadliest natural disaster when Yarralumla Creek flooded, sweeping cars off Yarra Glen, killing seven people. And in 2003, four houses, including two in Munro Street, were destroyed in the January bushfires.

Signs are good, say agents If last month was any indication, the Canberra property market may be on the verge of a recovery, according to agents. While January is traditionally a quieter month, agents have seen an increase in buyers throughout the Territory. The Independent Property Group’s John Minns said the number of people at their inspections had risen by 15 per cent. Last year open homes averaged 468 people each week, while 546 inspected homes in January, Minns said. Last month IPG sold 140 properties, compared to 116 last January. “There are lot of really positive

signs coming out of the Canberra market right now,” he said. “This increased enquiry also translated to 15 per cent higher monthly sales than the 2014 average, so buyers are clearly motivated to act.” LJ Hooker’s marketing manager Karen Ligdopoulos said the company was also seeing a large increase in attendances at open homes. “Over the weekend our group conducted 119 open homes and had 521 attendees. That’s the exact amount of open homes from last week with almost 100 extra attendees,” she said.

“Canberra is a very transient city and we find that in January more people are looking to move into the Territory to rent and buy as job opportunities such as new placements are allocated from the services.” Attractive prices, increased choice and high levels of affordability are driving the market, particularly first home buyers, Minns said. “Forty-six per cent of those who purchased a home through Independent Property Group in January were aged between 25-35 years old.” - Lyndall Larkham Email property@canberraweekly.com.au

expert advice David James Director Herron Todd White

How are residential properties valued? Valuations of residential properties employ one or more of the valuation approaches by applying the principle of substitution, using market derived data. This principle holds that a prudent person would not pay more for a good or service than the cost of acquiring an equally satisfactory substitute good or service, in the absence of the complicating factors of time, greater risk or inconvenience. The lowest cost of the best alternative, whether a substitute or the original, tends to establish market value. The concept of ‘Market Value’ reflects the collective perceptions and actions of a market and given the unique characteristics of land determine its optimal utility by considering the highest and best use of the property as improved. The primary approach adopted is the Comparison Approach. This method considers the prices paid of similar or substitute properties and related market data, and establishes a value estimate by processes involving comparison.

Hi Brendan, We just wanted to let you know how well our house is going! It’s been almost a year since we moved in and it’s feeling like home. Going into our second winter the solar passive design is proving to be amazing for our climate. I tell people how warm our house is, and they almost don’t believe me, but the thermostat doesn’t lie. This morning was a cold zero degrees and our home was 18 degrees without the use of any heating. By 1pm this afternoon it was 21 degrees and only 13 degrees outside. On your advice we installed a 3kw PV solar system and not only do we not have electricity bills, but our account is in credit of over $250. Last winter our gas bill was $280 which is amazing since we have gas cooking, heating and gas boosted solar hot water. Overall the credit from the electricity will partially offset the cost of gas by a significant amount. All this and we stay toasty and warm though the cold autumn and winter that Canberra is famous for. The finish and quality of our house is much better than most and we have plenty of compliments from our guests. The day to day liveability of our home is a credit to you and your team. Gaelle and I both agree if we ever build again Today’s Homes will be on speed dial. Kind Regards Josh and Gaelle

PICK OF THE WEEK Mamma Mia! Saturday, 7TWO, 9pm, PG (2008) Adapted from the hit musical and interspersed with hits by iconic pop outfit ABBA, Mamma Mia! tells the story of Sophie (Amanda Seyfried), a bride-to-be who lives with her mother Donna (Meryl Streep, above) at their Greek island resort. Sophie’s dream is to have her father give her away – the trouble is, she doesn’t know who he is. She identifies three men who could be her father – Sam (Pierce Brosnan), Harry (Colin Firth) and Bill (Stellan Skarsgård) – and invites them to the island for the wedding.

Friday

Wedding Crashers

The Matrix Wednesday, GO!, 8.30pm, M (1999) Experiencing Andy and Larry Wachowski’s thrilling sci-fi masterpiece is kind of like a rebirthing in the genre. Neo (Keanu Reeves, left) is a computer hacker who, guided by the mysterious Trinity (Carrie-Anne Moss) and Morpheus (Laurence Fishburne), learns the true nature of his reality when he is sucked into a virtual world. His bewilderment gives way to self-belief that enables him to battle an evil government force. The miraculous production design proved to be a yardstick for all contemporary action cinema.

Sunday, GO!, 9.30pm, M (2005) Best friends John and Jeremy (Owen Wilson and Vince Vaughn) spend springtime crashing weddings in order to seduce women. The tail end of another successful season finds the pair at the wedding of the daughter of Treasury Secretary William Cleary (Christopher Walken). Wrangling an invitation to a weekend celebration at the Cleary compound, the pair undergo a series of mishaps at the hands of the dysfunctional Cleary family. Vaughn (right, with Isla Fisher) is in fine form here, while Wilson does a stand-up job as the joker who falls for Claire Cleary (Rachel McAdams).

BOOKS “‘A person that reads is a person that thinks for themselves’, I love that quote …it’s good to have an escape from reality and give you something else to think about.”

My favourite things TUNED IN “There’s a song for every feeling and I think when you hear the right song at the right time it’s a couple of minutes of therapy… most of the stuff I like is Mo-Town from the ‘60s, it speaks from experience and real feelings.”

FAMILY

“I have a very small family; it’s pretty much me and my Mum and Dad in Canberra. They’ve supported everything I’ve done.”

Ben Edwards

RUNNING “I used to run as a teenager all the time… I’m falling back in love with it. It’s another therapeutic activity along with the endorphins, you are out in nature as well.”

BOXER

A high achiever as a kickboxer, local athlete Ben Edwards has switched focus to boxing, having also competed in mixed martial arts. He returned to the ring last November, his first bout since injury earlier in the year. Ben has been fighting for 10 years and walked away from a Raiders contract at age 19 to pursue his dreams. “Walking away from a good living with rugby league, I never questioned it,” he said. “It is the one thing in my life that I know is the right thing.” - Allison Redman 210

TEA BREAK “It’s something I’ve grown into. I got a taste of it and just went crazy. There’s a whole world out there with different tastes and sensations. Types of green tea are my favourite.”
