This week...

Tuning into breakfast television last week, I heard one of the dumbest Canberra bashings ever. Melbourne radio jock Neil Mitchell was bemoaning the fact he’d spent three days in Canberra reporting on the recent Tony Abbott spill motion. “Canberra’s a horrible place. It should be bulldozed”, he sneered. It is not. And it should not. Mitchell might have spent time at Parliament House, where only four of the 226 elected representatives actually live in Canberra, but as anyone who lives here knows, there is far more to Canberra than the big house on the hill. So Mitchell wants to bulldoze the Australian War Memorial and Anzac Parade, does he? The National Gallery, National Archives, Library, Museum, Portrait Gallery, the Mint, schools, hospitals, businesses, charities, animal refuges and the zoo, tens of thousands of family homes... Canberra is home to 330,000 people, human beings just like Mitchell but with more intelligence, heart and spirit. We deserve a little respect. Reasons to be grateful this week include huge crowds enjoying the National Multicultural Festival, Fringe and Lifeline Bookfair, a giant Brumbies’ win, fun at the Sweet Charity opening night, the Hearts of Valour gala ball and delightful music at the CSO Shell Prom. - Julie Samaras

Lifeline Bookfair sets new records

he Lifeline Canberra ‘EPIC’ Bookfair at Exhibition Park saw a record number of 2,089 patrons through the doors in the first two hours upon opening, with over 13,000 people attending the three day event overall. Officially opened by Dr Brendan Nelson and five Cross of Valour (CV) recipients, patrons had

the opportunity to find something great to read and help raise vital funds to support Lifeline Canberra. Revenue increased by 10 per cent, up from the estimated $501,000 raised from sales at the March 2014 Bookfair. Stacey Truscott represented Christine Courtenay AM and donated 10,000 copies of

The Last Class, a DVD of Bryce Courtenay’s last writing class held a few months before his death in 2012, which Lifeline sold at $14.99 each and retained 100 per cent of the proceeds. Allan Sparkes CV donated 100 autographed copies of his book, The Cost of Bravery, and local author Rachael Stevens sold copies of her book, The Skeleton Diaries, to assist in the fundraising effort. The funds from the Bookfair will go towards supporting the Lifeline Canberra crisis line. More people called the support service nationally in 2014 than any other year since the charity’s establishment in 1963, with more than 930,000 calls taken; an increase of over 25 per cent in just two years. In Canberra, the call answer rate increased by nine per cent during 2014, with more than 30,000 calls answered. The 13 11 14 crisis line is available 24 hours per day, seven days per week.

270,000 attend National Multicultural Festival A wet Saturday afternoon failed to deter visitors at this year’s National Multicultural Festival with the event attracting an estimated crowd of 270,000 from 13 to 15 February. According to Festival Director Nic Manikis, feedback from this year’s event has it as “one of the best we’ve staged” with very positive responses from community groups that participated in stalls and on stage. A major change at this year’s event was expanding the festival’s footprint to take in the Civic Bus Interchange area in East Row. “We’ve had very positive feedback and certainly the Indigenous Showcase said it was much better for them there,” Mr Manikis 6

said. “They attracted a good crowd and the configuration of stalls and stage worked for them. The Fringe was also much happier up there and felt like part of the festival footprint.” The event also moved the location of the main stage while the European embassies were moved to Civic square. “People look forward to the festival each year. It is highly anticipated and one of the much-loved events on the cultural calendar in Canberra.” The concert on Friday 13 February featuring Justice Crew and Z-Star was well received with a “jam-packed” crowd, while Mr Manikis said he believed “a lot of people took the opportunity to

take their loved one along to free entertainment and cuisine” on Saturday 14 February. While this year’s event was regarded as very positive, there are still a number of issues to address for future events including working on the electrical supply to make it more constant. “There were some outages which just inconvenience stallholders,” he said. “There are little things we can tweak and find better ways to deliver infrastructure.” Mr Manikis also thanked the 4,000 community volunteers for their assistance as well as the organising team behind the event who “ensured an enjoyable event for the community”. - Allison Redman

From Friday 13 to Sunday 15 February, more than 13,000 patrons assisted in boosting the Lifeline Canberra Bookfair revenue by 10 per cent over the March 2014 event.

cover story show differs markedly from the film. “I am reading the novels in which she is portrayed as a darker figure, who is quite strict and insists on routine; she really whips the kids, and parents, into shape,” she says. Director Stephen Colyer says the Mary Poppins musical is more true to Australian-born writer PL Travers’ books than the sugarcoated treatment of the 1964 Disney film starring Julie Andrews with the much loved music by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman. “In order to get the rights to the musical we were obliged to reinstate more of the darker elements of the story. We made

PRACTICALLY PERFECT MARY

Eighty years ago, a magical English nanny blew in on the east wind clutching a parrot head umbrella and a carpet bag to care for the Banks children in England.

er name was Mary Poppins and she went on to feature in eight books, a Disney film and a stage musical which has finally made its way to Canberra. Alinta Chidzey will play the eponymous role in Free-Rain’s production of the Broadway musical. An Australian production toured Australia in 2010 with Verity Hunt-Ballard (Sweet Charity) as Mary but missed the capital. Chidzey will spend two months in Canberra for rehearsals and the two-and-a-half week season, from 12 to 29 March, which stars Sydney’s Shaun Rennie as Bert. Chidzey is getting to know Canberra better, having only spent a

week here once before performing in The Music of Andrew Lloyd Webber in 2011. “I am used to touring and being somewhere but it’s actually nice to be here for a few months.” She has acted in television shows such as The Dr Blake Mysteries and Neighbours and a number of American telemovies. The Melbourne-based film and television actress is also a soughtafter musical theatre performer who has her own jazz band. “But musical theatre is definitely close to my heart, I love music and dance.” She has seen three productions of Mary Poppins, in New York, London and in Australia, and says the stage

Mary a bit more no nonsense than the Julie Andrews character. She is a little less warm and cheerful, more stern and acerbic. “Travers wanted Mary Poppins to have more of an edge and she remains an enigmatic, mythological character with surprising magical powers. “Even the look of the production is more inspired by the kind of ink sketches that Mary Shepard did for the original PL Travers stories,” he says. “Because we are doing a slightly more stylised version, it lends itself to a more surreal aspect of the story. In the book Mary is trying to help the children to grow up to be more authentically who they are, in this very rigid Edwardian society, by showing them anything is possible. But you have to be attentive to the magic that is in the real world. She helps them appreciate that there is more than you rationally perceive in the real world by taking them on these fantastical adventures. “Mary Poppins is a more ambiguous heroine in the musical than she is in the film. She had a Alinta Chidzey, as Mary Poppins, with Georgia Foster, 12, and Callum Doherty, 11, as Jane and Michael Banks, and chimney sweeps Jamie Winbank, Sophie Highmore, Georgina Galvin and Fraser Findlay.

certain amount of mystery about her but she is essentially a more friendly, charming character. She is more prickly in the book and we try to give her that quality in the musical.” Colyer has a good few musicals under his directorial belt including Cabaret, The Full Monty, Dirty Dancing, Rocky Horror Show and Kiss of the Spider Woman. Free-Rain’s Mary Poppins production will be more modest – the original would have cost millions of dollars to stage – but Collyer is confident audiences will have a Broadway experience. “I am very satisfied that the solutions we came up with to do it on a more modest budget do not compromise the magic and the enchantment of the story telling.” For a younger generation unfamiliar with the books or the Disney film, which PL Travers loathed, Collyer says the musical has an enduring appeal. “Even if they have only seen the film I think it will be a revelation. Even though it has all the original songs from the film, it shows them another side of the Mary Poppins character. “Audiences will see adventures from the books that were not included in the film and there are additional songs by George Stiles and Anthony Drewe. “A couple of songs were added for dramatic purpose for the show and the different stories create more dramatic content in the show.” - Diana Streak

capital hill Australia pleas for mercy and rediscovers its humanity ust when it looked like the government was spiralling towards a rejection of its commitments to human rights, the national parliament came to the rescue. The unedifying spectacle of the prime minister attacking the Human Rights Commissioner, Gillian Triggs, was counterbalanced, indeed almost contradicted, by a unanimous vote that reasserted our founding values. Gillian Triggs is an eminent lawyer with the job as the nation’s human rights watchdog. She inquired into the way we treat the children of boat people in detention. She found our government was failing to live up to its legal obligations. Her report was far from partisan. While it found children were being horribly harmed, it shared the blame. It criticised the Rudd

Labor government as well as the current Abbott Coalition. Rather than commit itself to doing better, ministers blasted her for delaying her inquiry till after the last election. Lost in the bombast was the real issue. Who Tony Abbott thought he was impressing is hard to fathom. The government has significantly reduced the number of kids behind wire from around 2,000 under Labor to 200. For that it deserves praise. But the bipartisan policy of people smuggling “deterrence” is really code for “cruelty”. It means we continue to keep a significant number of children in conditions on Nauru that are accurately described as institutional abuse. Just imagine the outcry if some church was found to have acted in a similar way. Why, there would be a royal commission. A very different mood marked

the motion in parliament urging Indonesia for clemency for the two Australians on death row. Foreign Minister Julie Bishop made a moving, heartfelt plea. She rejected the findings of a Morgan poll that 52 per cent of Australians were in favour of the death penalty. She does not believe it reflects the true attitude of the majority and called into question its legitimacy. Polling experts agree. They say the question was too general about Australians convicted abroad and not specific to this case. The Foreign Minister does not excuse Andrew Chan or Myuran Sukumaran for trafficking eight kilograms of heroin. She acknowledges it would have brought untold misery and possibly death to addicts and their families. But these two men have been rehabilitated in the 10 years since

their crime. They are remorseful and prepared to continue paying their debt to society. Labor’s Tanya Plibersek told of her rehabilitated husband who served time in prison for trafficking. Had he been caught in Thailand, he too would have been executed. She said the world would have missed out on three beautiful children and a man spending the rest of his life making amends for his crime. Australia is doing no more than Indonesia itself does in pleading for mercy for its citizens. Even if the pleas fall on deaf ears, our political leaders have spoken with one voice against a leftover of an earlier and barbaric time.

political capital Sad story of Lloyd Burch needs explaining

It’s fair to say Lloyd Burch grabbed the opportunity with both hands, volunteering with male support network, Menslink.

At first he rattled donor tins for the organisation, but then later stepped up his role, visiting schools and talking to students as part of Menslink’s incredibly important “Silence is Deadly” program. And that’s where the problems started. Very few people at Menslink knew of Lloyd Burch’s criminal background. In fact there may have only been one person at the organisation who knew. One reason they never knew is that Burch was never subjected to the usual legal clearances required to work with vulnerable people. If he had been tested, he would never have passed. The whole episode is incredibly embarrassing for Menslink and worrying for the schools. If you haven’t worked it out by now, Lloyd Burch is the son of accident-prone ACT Education and

Police Minister, Joy Burch. It raises obvious questions about what role the Minister might have played, whether she was aware of what was going on, whether she understood her son needed special clearance to work with vulnerable people. Unfortunately for Lloyd, this has guaranteed the Menslink affair is front page news. Also unfortunately for Lloyd, the Barr Government’s decision not to answer questions, and Joy Burch’s decision not to answer fully any role she may have played, and to explain her understanding of what her son was doing, has prolonged his time in the spotlight. By refusing to answer questions it suggests the government, and Joy Burch in particular, has something to hide. If the government thinks this is a

non-story, it is being badly advised. A 20-year-old man, with a previous drug problem and awaiting sentencing for robbing at knife-point, was allowed into ACT schools to talk with students. As a parent, I would be deeply concerned if my child was one of those students. But also as a parent, I have a lot of sympathy for the situation Joy Burch found herself in. What parent wouldn’t do whatever they could to give their child a second chance, a better life? So long as no rules were broken. And if there were no rules broken, Burch needed to make a full and frank statement straight away saying as much. You can have your say by emailing politicalcapital@ canberraweekly.com.au

ndrew Barr and his government made a bad call when it decided the Lloyd Burch affair was a media beat-up. I’m sure I’m not the only one finding it really hard not to feel sorry for 21-year-old Burch. I think his story should serve as inspiration for anyone whose life has run off the rails. Burch got himself into a pretty bad space, did some really stupid things, but was given a chance. In 2013, Burch, armed with a knife, held up a takeaway store in Phillip. He was later arrested and charged with aggravated robbery. He pleaded guilty, but ACT Supreme Court Justice John Burns delayed sentencing to allow the young man a chance to show he could be rehabilitated.

community campaign to give local businesses, community groups and individuals a way to express their pride in Canberra has been launched. ‘We are CBR’ is part of the Brand Canberra project and project consultant Warren Apps believes that the time is right to build a local pride mark. “We’ve been overwhelmed with the level of interest from people wanting to use the new Canberra brand as a symbol of their local pride,” Mr Apps said. “We receive several requests a day from professional service businesses to retailers, restaurants and junior sporting

teams travelling to represent the ACT in other parts of Australia. It’s really encouraging and so ‘We are CBR’ was about developing a genuine version of the brand that the community can really take ownership of.” People can access the ‘We are CBR’ resources at www.canberra. com.au/weareCBR

The Australian National University is set to conduct research into the potential long-term health risks of living in a house with loose-fill Mr Fluffy asbestos. Announced by ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr and Minister for Health Simon Corbell on Monday 16 February, the research will be undertaken by the ANU’s National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health (NCEPH) and overseen by the ACT Chief Health Officer. “Mr Fluffy homeowners indicated to the ACT Government at an Asbestos Response Taskforce community forum last year that they would like a health study conducted on this issue. We have listened, and responded,” Mr Barr said. “We have commissioned an epidemiological study on the risk of developing mesothelioma among people who have lived, or are currently living, in a house with loose-fill asbestos in the ACT.” Chief Investigator, Associate Professor Martyn Kirk, said the study will “provide insights into the epidemiology of asbestos-related disease in the ACT and information

on the risks of domestic exposure to asbestos”. “It will provide an overview of mesothelioma incidence in the ACT and document the health concerns of affected residents,” Professor Kirk said. There are four parts to the study: a review of mesothelioma rates and distribution in the ACT; focus groups held with current and recent residents of affected houses to discuss their health-related concerns with voluntary participation; a study looking at the likely exposure levels of current and recent residents in terms of years lived in an affected house and activities such as renovating; and a study linking a number of data sets to estimate the risk of developing mesothelioma in current and former residents of affected houses compared with the general population. Meantime, more than half of the 1,021 houses affected by loose-fill asbestos insulation are under offer from the ACT Government with 610 homeowners having now received formal letters of offer as part of the buyback program.

Dr Peggy Brown: “The ACT has a fantastic health system and all too often the dialogue that goes into the public space is about the issues or the problems or the challenges”.

Dr Brown calls time as ACT Health boss somewhat “reluctant recruit” to the role of Director General of ACT Health, Dr Peggy Brown says it has been an honour and privilege to be in the position. Dr Brown has decided not to renew her contract after her current five-year term expires later this year. “I don’t have a specific other goal, I don’t

have another role I’m going to,” Dr Brown said. “I’m going to put my feet up for a while after I’ve completed my contract and then look at what other challenges are around at that time.” While she has overseen delivery of a range of important projects for the ACT community including the Centenary Hospital for Women and Children and the Canberra Region Cancer Centre, Dr Brown believes it is “some of the things that are a little less tangible that I feel I’ve been able to bring to the role”. “I come from a mental health background and consumer engagement participation has been strong in the mental health sector for a couple of decades now… while ACT Health, when I came to the role, had some commitment and experience with that, we have been able to strengthen that considerably in the time I have been in this role.” This includes having a consumer sit on the Executive Council, the peak committee for ACT Health, while consumers also feature on over 100 committees across the organisation. “We genuinely look to engage with consumers about what we are planning and thinking about and we seek their input and we value the advice they give us,” Dr Brown said.

During her time as Director General, Dr Brown has also faced her fair share of criticism with issues including an alleged bullying culture and faulty data reporting. “From time to time there are things that go the way you don’t want them to go and sometimes it gets played out in the public arena,” Dr Brown said. “We take that very seriously because we want to have the best health system we can… but it’s really not the norm.” According to Dr Brown, “no one can run a perfect health system; it’s how you respond that’s the important thing”. “The ACT has a fantastic health system and all too often the dialogue that goes into the public space is about the issues or the problems or the challenges… but on the whole the quality of the service that is available in the ACT and the breadth of the services that are available truly, I think, surpasses what you would get in any of the other jurisdictions.” A recruitment process is under way for a new Director General of ACT Health. Dr Brown is expected to finish with ACT Health later this year. - Allison Redman

news Planning changes to streamline light rail

egislation changes are set to streamline planning processes for the Capital Metro Stage 1 project, according to Minister for Planning, Mick Gentleman. The Planning and Development (Capital Metro) Amendment Bill 2014 includes the removal of review rights to the ACT Civil and Administrative Tribunal for capital works projects directly linked to the Stage 1 Capital Metro project, including tracks, depots and associated infrastructure. In addition, the Bill has a number of restrictions on Supreme Court review rights including removal of the right to seek review under the Administrative Decisions (Judicial Review) Act and time limiting review rights under the common law. All proposed works will still be subject to the development assessment process under the Planning and Development

Act, including opportunity for the community to comment on development applications. Mr Gentleman said these changes do not take away the public consultation period for developments and other planning changes in relation to this project, such as future development applications, will be publicly notified and subject to the normal public consultation process. An independent report supports the ACT Government’s proposal to limit appeal rights on infrastructure and development projects of benefit to the ACT community. The Latimer House Principles and the ACT Legislative Assembly report prepared by the University of Canberra’s Institute for Governance and Policy Analysis highlighted appeals of planning decisions for DFO in Fyshwick, for the Gungahlin Drive Extension and for the

Giralang Shops redevelopment as examples of where “narrow vested interests” have sought to “overturn decisions on public or commercial amenity approved for the wider good by the government”. The report stated that: “The Government has recently sought to limit appeal rights through legislation in regard to plans for a light rail system in northern Canberra and Gungahlin in an attempt to reduce the additional cost to the project of being subjected to delay and appeal by narrow vested interests. Its justification for this action has been that the project is part of an electoral mandate. It seems that the unfettered rights of narrow vested interests to seek to thwart broader interests of the citizens of the ACT needs reflection and review if the very expensive and most often fruitless processes are to be avoided.”

Gungahlin to get men’s shed

he Men’s Sheds of Canberra provide a safe, helpful and friendly environment for men of all ages to get together and support one another. The Gungahlin Men’s Group will receive $15,000 to establish a new Men’s Shed thanks to a funding grant from the ACT Government. Chief Executive Officer of

Communities@Work, Lynne Harwood, says that Men’s Sheds are a vital part of the community. “Men’s Sheds are a space where men can connect, make friends and participate in activities which promote ‘mateship’, as well as avoiding social isolation that can be associated with mental health problems in elderly men.

has been around for about nine years. We think it’s excellent and the men in the group are so excited to have the funds to establish a Men’s Shed and have a permanent space for their activities. The men like engaging socially and the group gives them independence and a purpose to continue with their hobbies,” she says. The grant funding in Gungahlin will allow the group to engage more with the local community and participate in philanthropic work, such as fixing equipment for local schools, in addition to gearing and setting up for optimal men’s group activities and having a safe space to store tools and materials. The Gungahlin Men’s Group meets every Friday from 9.30am at the Ngnunnawal Neighbourhood Centre, 40 Yarrawonga Street, Ngnunnawal. Contact Communities@Work on 6228 9200 or www.commsatwork.org for more information. - Madeline Power

Standing near a work in progress by the Gungahlin Men’s Group, Matt Hudson, Malcolm Mortimer, Kevin White, Lynne Harwood, Bill Mclaine and Jim Thornton are glad to see the beginnings of a Gungahlin Men’s Shed.

“Thanks to the ACT Government’s 2014-15 Men’s Shed Grants Program, there will now be a permanent place for the Gungahlin Men’s Group to store things and conduct their technical activities. We’ve found that often men in Gungahlin like coming to be a part of the group, but travel to places around Canberra that have established Men’s Sheds due to that previous lack of permanent space,” Ms Harwood says. Communities@Work provides support and guidance to Men’s Sheds to assist members in taking charge of the shed and making decisions which are in the best interest of its members. Rachel Sewell, coordinator of the Communities@Work Gungahlin Men’s Group, is happy to have the permanent space at the Ngnunnawal Neighbourhood Centre to base the new Gungahlin Men’s Shed. “The Gungahlin Men’s Group

Charity event serves up success he annual Maxim Invitational Tennis Charity event exceeded fundraising expectations at the North Woden Tennis Club on Thursday 12 February raising $156,000. The event, hosted by Maxim Chartered Accountants, brought together 32 local businesses to compete and raise money for local organisations Kulture Break and Technical Aid to the Disabled ACT (TADACT). Kulture Break received $52,000 which Kulture Break CEO and founder, Francis Owusu said will “be put towards purchasing a

community mini bus to support our dance mentoring programs and to promote the inclusion of young people living with a disability”. TADACT received $104,000 which will go towards a major upgrade to their current facilities and a showroom.

Lock up your bike or lose it ACT Policing is once again reminding cyclists to ‘Lock it, or Lose it’, to combat the rising number of reported bicycle thefts across Canberra. Officer in Charge of Crime Reduction, Station Sergeant Daryl Neit, said “whether you ride a cheap and cheerful bike or a carbonfibre super-lightweight racer, it’s important to prevent bike theft and lock up properly. And, if your bike does get stolen, report it immediately to ACT Policing on 131 444.” Police are also urging cyclists

to record details of their bicycles, as only 16 per cent of bikes recovered by ACT Policing in 2013 were able to be identified. “It’s essential that bike owners record details including the bike’s serial number, characteristics and photographs, so it can be easily reclaimed if found.” More information about the ‘Lock it, or Lose it’ campaign and an electronic version of the Bike Passport are available online at justice.act.gov.au or police.act. gov.au

Kids choose top showbags

Rosary Primary School students Ryan O’Rourke, Nick Agnew, Anastasia Vlahos and Emily Benson with their favourite bags of goodies from this year’s showbag selection.

he votes are in and the kids have spoken – Spongebob Squarepants is this year’s most popular showbag on offer at the

ActewAGL Royal Canberra Show. The winners of the best showbags were judged by the Show’s biggest fans and toughest critics, children,

and the panel of students chose well. Spongebob Squarepants was rated Best Overall Showbag, followed closely by Giant Wicked Fizz for Best Confectionary, Trash Pack Garbage for Best Boys Showbag and Tweety for Best Girls Showbag. A select group of lucky students from Rosary Primary School in Watson had the chance to pick out a showbag to take home and try before the gates open for the ActewAGL Royal Canberra Show 2015 on Friday 27 February. “Last year, I chose a showbag that had lots of Barbie things. I like bags that have lots of toys and fun stuff and because I don’t like going on the rollercoasters, I just like to get a showbag,” Year 3 student Anastasia Vlahos says. Royal National Capital Agricultural Society CEO Garry

Ashby says showbags play a large part in the annual Show. “Recently a study found that the selection and purchase of showbags are the second most popular activity at the Show, followed closely by the animals. I believe the showbags encourage younger children to budget, and make thoughtful selections, which translates to a life skill, gets them ready for the future and similar types of decisions,” Mr Ashby says. Showbags will be available from the Showbag Pavilion at the 2015 ActewAGL Royal Canberra Show, Exhibition Park, Friday 27 February to Sunday 1 March.

CEO Jessy McGowan says Barton Private Hospital offers a new evolutionary model of care for the Canberra region.

Patients receive the highest level of service and care throughout their stay.

Barton Private Hospital offers 5-star health care Barton Private Hospital (BPH) is a fully licensed and accredited hospital situated in the heart of the Parliamentary Triangle in Canberra. Offering both day surgery and overnight hospital accommodation and high quality surgical care, patients are assured of the best attention before, during and after their surgery.

essy McGowan, CEO of BPH, says the hospital is affiliated with 40 well-respected surgeons from different specialities, with nine new surgeons joining in 2014 who have all been selected for their high quality surgical practice. “We pride ourselves on delivering excellent customer service to our patients,” Ms McGowan says. “Our surgeons practise in three operating theatres and specialise in a range of surgery: Urology, Gynaecology, Dentistry, General Surgery, Pain Management, Orthopaedics, Ophthalmology, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Cosmetic Surgery, Ocular-Plastic Surgery, Fertility/IVF, Vascular Surgery, Periodontal Dental Surgery, and Ear Nose and Throat Surgery.”

She advises that “patients who would like to have their surgery at Barton Private Hospital should ask their GP for a referral to one of the surgeons who are currently operating at our facility. Our surgeons are listed on our website by specialty. Alternatively, we would welcome the surgeon of your choice; if they are not a member of our team, they can apply for visiting rights though our vigorous Quality and Safety process.” The nursing staff are fully trained to ensure patients receive the highest service and care throughout their stay, and staff also undergo regular in-service education and accreditation. As BPH is in close proximity to Hotel Realm, wards for patients requiring overnight accommodation are located in the hotel itself. “The Medihotel, as it’s called, is located in

Because of our commitment to quality patient care, patients who stay overnight in our Medihotel ward can be accompanied by a companion at no extra cost. BPH provides this service above the contribution of the Health Funds to ensure that the postoperative experience is second to none,” Ms McGowan says. BPH is licensed by ACT Health Protective Services and fully accredited and credentialed by Global-Mark under the AS/NZS ISO 9001-2008 incorporating the core standards for safety and quality in health. “We benchmark against 20 other Australian private hospitals,” Ms McGowan says. “BPH is a members’ choice hospital provider with all major private health funds.” BPH offers a new evolutionary model of care for Canberra and its surrounding districts. With a promise of the very best of pre-, intra- and post-operative care, BPH has received a 92.6

Canberra Audiology advertising moment

Canberra Audiology in Deakin offers the very latest in hearing technology and the best quality care.

Now hear this: new hearing aid outperforms normal hearing

n Australia, one in six people has a hearing loss and the most common issue for these people is not being able to hear clearly in noisy environments. A new Siemens hearing aid has been developed that now enables the wearer to understand speech in challenging listening environments better than people with normal hearing. Two independent clinical studies were conducted, simulating certain noisy environments such as a cocktail party, and measured the ability of the wearer to correctly identify speech while subjected to constant background noise. The researchers compared the results of normal hearing listeners with hearing impaired listeners (fitted with the new technology) and the results clearly identified

that the hearing aid wearers could understand significantly more of the conversations than the people with normal hearing. Using advanced directional microphones and innovative wireless binaural processing, the clever chip within the hearing aids eliminates unwanted noise and focuses on the sounds that the wearer actually wants to hear. Background chatter in a busy restaurant, wind noise while out walking and the sound of traffic whilst on the road is greatly reduced, all while maintaining a clear, natural sound quality. These hearing aids are now available at Canberra Audiology in Deakin. Canberra Audiology is committed to giving the best quality, independent hearing care for self-funded Canberra residents. The clinic staff

offers the most personalised experience you could ask for and focuses on providing excellent professional service to clients and state-of-theart diagnostic and rehabilitative technology. To find out more about how you can benefit from this revolutionary technology, please call 6156 4474 to make an appointment.

While a decision was made in December to wind down the Trust, funds are available to support a final round of grants. There are no specific priority topics, funding limits or limit on the number of applications an applicant can submit, but all applications should be well developed and justified, and clearly demonstrate the potential to produce a road safety benefit in the ACT and region. Due to the winding down of the Trust, applicants should plan to complete their projects by the middle of 2016. Applications close Wednesday 11 March. The online application form and guidelines are available at roadsafetytrust.org.au

McGrath, Hogg & Kekovich The Cerebral Palsy Alliance ACT ‘Raising a Smile’ fundraising dinner will be held on Saturday 23 May to honour the memory of Gabrielle Eve Pettit-Robberds, who had cerebral palsy and passed away at just two years of age in May 2010. Craig Robberds, Gabrielle’s father, says this fundraising dinner will commemorate the five-year anniversary of her passing and help raise funds for new physiotherapy equipment and therapy programs for the Cerebral Palsy Alliance ACT Therapy Centre which opened last November.

Remove your unwanted double chin DO YOU OFTEN LOOK AT PHOTOS AND REALISE YOU HAVE A DOUBLE CHIN? An accumulation of fat under the chin can cause the appearance of a double chin in some people. Others have sagging jowls, making them appear tired. These signs are often hereditary but tend to get worse with age. Fortunately these ageing signs can be reversed. Dr Bernard Leung performs VASER Liposculpture to remove the unwanted fat causing your double chin. By carefully sculpting the neck and lower face he can give you a more defined jawline. This procedure permanently removes the fat cells. For loose skin or ‘turkey neck’, Dr Leung can combine this with a neck lift procedure.

OUR NECK LIPOSCULPTURE IS UNIQUE It takes more than state of the art medical equipment and good surgical skills to be an expert in neck and body contouring. It requires a thorough understanding of the mechanisms of ageing, a sound appreciation of proportion and aesthetics, and a keen artistic eye – all skills that Dr Leung possesses.

Dr Bernard Leung is a leader in neck sculpting procedures. He is one of the most sought after liposuction surgeons in Canberra.

›› Smooth reliable results in a safe and comfortable environment ›› The procedure is walk in/walk out. Most people return to work within a week ›› Less bruising and swelling

CWM11166-V8

For an assessment with Dr Bernard Leung to ﬁnd out what is possible for you please call 6255 8988.

›› Unsurpassed skin tightening By removing fat from the neck and jowl area, you can improve your facial proportions. This will result in a much more attractive and youthful appearance.

Matt Nimmo and Tom Reaby at Belconnen’s newest offering, 54 Benjamin.

MIXING IT UP

hat makes the perfect cocktail? Some suggest it’s the masterful balance of acid with sugar. Others praise the magic of a delicate fragrance. Purists emphasise the width of the ice cubes. According to Matt Nimmo, manager and consultant at 54 Benjamin, the ‘perfect’ cocktail doesn’t exist. “Every customer is like a puzzle,” says Nimmo. “There’s not necessarily a cocktail that is good for everyone. We train our staff to know about 90 different cocktails. When a customer comes to the bar, it’s all about asking them the right questions.” 54 Benjamin is an anomaly, nestled amid beige office-fronts and a formalwear store in the Churches Centre in Belconnen. Upon entering, you’ll find Nimmo behind the bar, often alongside owner Thomas Reaby and other members of the team. It’s a relaxed, personal experience. The staff are passionate about discerning specific tastes – a love of grapefruit, an aversion to rum – and crafting something unique. Having both grown up in Belconnen, Reaby and Nimmo possess a genuine understanding of the suburb and the people who live and work there. “Belconnen is just really underserviced,” Nimmo tells me. As he says this, I notice the bar behind him, crammed with hundreds of colourful bottles of spirits, some

familiar, most exotic. I think they’re in safe hands now. “We saw a little bit of a hole in the market for high-end drinking. But we wanted to take away from the arrogance of it, have a little bit of fun with it and bring it back down to earth.” The small, edgy space reflects this ethos – it’s industrial and grungy without being contrived. Light bounces off exposed copper pipes and the matte charcoal walls resemble blackboards. There are plans to exhibit and sell the works of local artists, giving the customers a setting that is constantly changing, while supporting Canberra’s creative-folk. The drinks menu is similarly dynamic. There are classic highballs on offer, as well as a selection of traditional Japanese whiskeys and a few fruity punches ideal for an afternoon tipple in the sunshine. Ambitious and internationally focused, the cocktail list is inspired by mixology trends from Melbourne to New York. Flick to the ‘Sweet Corner’ of the menu for a nostalgic homage to traditionally Australian tastes. Nimmo laughs as he describes an unlikely favourite, the ‘Frog in the pond’ – a fun, tonguein-cheek adaptation of the children’s dessert, now with gin and aloe vera water. With an all-Australian beer list, wines, inventive nonalcoholic options, a house-made soda that

changes weekly and a food cart in the works, the options at Benjamin 54 are diverse and inclusive – precisely what Reaby and Nimmo had envisioned. “What is a cocktail bar in 2015? In Australia?” asks Nimmo. “It’s not the bartender in a bowtie. It’s more relaxed. We don’t have to pretend to be anything that we’re not. We can still serve up the kind of drinks that you’d find on award-winning menus across Australia, but without the fuss.” - Tessa Connelly 54 Benjamin Way, Belconnen.

54 BENJAMIN’S ‘LASSIE SUSAN’ The guys from 54 Benjamin have kindly provided us with the recipe for one of their popular house cocktails, the ‘Lassie Susan’. It’s inspired by the Indian yoghurt-based drink, but with a boozy twist. At 54 Benjamin, all drinks are served with a bowl of Bhuja snack mix, but Matt Nimmo sees this cocktail being perfect for an Indianthemed dinner party – the cooling properties of the yoghurt will take the edge off a spicy curry. This drink can easily be adapted for designated drivers, kids and expectant mums. Simply replace the 45ml of rum with 45ml of milk for a creamy banana lassie. - Tessa Connelly Preparation time: 10 mins. Makes 1 cocktail

INGREDIENTS

METHOD

Honey syrup

15ml water

In a pot, heat honey and water. Stir until the honey and the water form a syrup. Do not let boil. Alternatively, boil a kettle and mix honey and water in a bowl. Cool before use.

15ml honey Banana puree

Banana puree

The juice of ½ a lemon for each banana Note: Ideally, use ripe or overripe bananas, as they taste sweeter. Under-ripe bananas will produce a chalky texture. Ice, to fill a cocktail shaker 2 heaped tsp Greek or Indian style unsweetened yoghurt 45ml Sailor Jerry’s spiced rum

In a mixing bowl, puree banana using a blending stick or other blending device. Add lemon juice to prevent browning. To a cocktail shaker, add ice, yoghurt, banana puree, honey syrup, spiced rum and coconut. Shake well for around 25 seconds. Matt offers a tip for home bartenders: you can never shake it too hard!

1 heaped tsp desiccated coconut

Pour all ingredients from the shaker into a milkshake glass; there’s no need for straining.

Fresh nutmeg for garnishing

Garnish by grating fresh nutmeg on top.

TEA, ANYONE?

ea cosies are funny. That’s the definitive word from Loani Prior whose books of knitting patterns have inspired women around Australia to create outrageous covers for the humble tea pot. Portraits of a Tea Cosy is a travelling exhibition, at CraftACT until 28 March, which is a collaboration between Prior and photographer Mark Crocker. The pair used the homely tea cosy as a catalyst to explore the joy of owning something handmade that involved family tradition. They travelled to regional areas and collected individuals’ stories and tea cosy designs. The result is a series of beautiful black and white portraits by Crocker of ordinary people holding their tea cosies which are in vibrant colour. Prior also recorded an interview with the participants who shared deeply emotional stories 44

of love and loss and childhood tragedy with doses of humour. One of the most striking photographs is of Ted Gibbons of Queensland who made a tea cosy from zinc and hessian. “A long long time ago now, probably nearly 60 years ago, I was a drover and in those days an enterprising cook would make something in the way of a warmer. “This tea cosy cladding is zinc. It comes from outside of an old house that’s on my property that was built in the 1850s… Inside is just hessian stuffed with sheep and lambs wool.” The stars of the exhibition are the exuberant tea cosies which take the form of a chicken, a peacock, a bowl of fruit, flowers, a Tam o’Shanter, a jester’s hat and a pair of unfinished jumper sleeves. The names are delightfully quirky; Sleeveless in Seattle, Hey Jimmeh and Gone Feral.

Mel George, CraftACT curator and exhibition manager, says Loani Prior has a cult following and her books Pretty Funny Tea Cosies, Really Wild Tea Cosies and How Tea Cosies Changed the World have been very influential. “The exhibition came from workshops she held during which people designed and made their own cosies. She made the tea cosies for the show and Mark took the photographs with blurbs to tell the stories,” she says. George says fans of Prior’s work were phoning before the show opened on the last stop of its national tour. “I knew it was going to be a winner. There are outrageous cosies with personality. It’s fun, accessible, colourful and quirky and the titles will make you smile.” - Diana Streak

Canberra Weekly’s resident film critic, Joanna Baker, shares her top picks for who will take home an Oscar this week. Finally, at the pointy end of awards season, the Academy will hit the red carpet this Sunday (22 February, LA time) to present the industry’s leading men and women with their most coveted prize, an Oscar. Predictions have been constantly evolving resulting in one of the closest years for the top honours. And the nominees are:

Best Picture Birdman The two-horse race is on between Birdman and Boyhood. In what’s looked like a done deal since August, indie epic Boyhood has lost traction recently under the weight of high flying Birdman. A wonderful story of rebirth, reinvention and redemption (not just for its acting lead), Birdman

has an edginess that captures viewers, dragging them willingly into its bizarreness. An engrossing cinematic experience that leaves you wondering “why?” for all the right reasons.

Best Director Richard Linklater, Boyhood A marathon of patience, Boyhood is a direction feat. Understated and simple in content, Linklater’s visually hands-off approach allowed the actors’ characters to unfold naturally onscreen. Its unrepeatable timeframe highlights the project’s inert trust. Always a subjective category that flops easily with best picture, if Boyhood pushes out Birdman for Best Picture, Iñárritu will surely head to the podium here.

Best Actor Michael Keaton (pictured), Birdman Will seasoned veteran Keaton’s daring revival in a case of art imitating life pay off, or will relative up-starter Redmayne break through boundaries much like his portrayed subject, Stephen Hawking? My money’s on Keaton. His go-forbroke performance was candid, fearless and soaring. You have to admire a good comeback story.

time out OUR OSCAR PREDICTIONS

Best Actress Julianne Moore, Still Alice Fifth time lucky, Moore is the standout. Her performance as renowned linguistics professor facing early-onset Alzheimer’s patient, Alice Howland, was measured, courageous and full of grace – everything we expect from Moore. It is impossible not to be moved by her devastating and complex performance reminding us exactly why she has always been a true leading lady.

Known for giving accolades within a specific theme or pattern for the year, will the academy go with old-school stables or newbreed standouts? Or like last year’s rare anomaly of the same film honoured in both the best actor and best supporting actor categories (which could effectively happen again with Keaton and Edward Norton’s Birdman) embrace a break with tradition?

As it goes, portrait of Luke Chiswell by Charlie White.

It’s unusual to find the combination of young men and skateboards in the arts world, but that’s where Luke Chiswell is right at home. AS IT GOES is an exploration of disenchantment through the lens of his first passion, skateboarding. “This exhibition uses skateboarding as a metaphor to examine the compromises we make to the tyranny of time in spite of things we love,” he says.

For Chiswell, who is known for his street art images of Straightface, this was represented by the improbability of translating skateboarding into a career, the uncertainty of how to make a living, and the self-doubt that manifests itself through cynicism of friends, family and educators. Chiswell is part of the Stomping Ground Collective which is developing the pop-up shipping container village on Lake Burley Griffin’s west basin, due to open on Canberra Day, 9 March. He will set up in one of the makeshift studios. AS IT GOES, at Nishi Gallery in New Acton until 8 March.

Another side of Bacon Now here’s something different. Pope Head - The Secret Life of Francis Bacon is a one-man show that will be in Canberra for one night only, 22 February, 5pm, Canberra Courtyard Theatre. The brainchild of Garry Roost, it describes Bacon as “an enigma, a maverick, a controversial and charismatic Force of Nature”.

Library names arts fellow Acclaimed composer Chris Williams has been named the Friends of the National Library of Australia’s inaugural Creative Arts Fellow. Williams, who recently completed a Masters degree at the University of Oxford, is a graduate of the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. His winning project was Discovering ‘The Desolate Kingdom’: exploring the imaginary cultural space of Nigel Butterley’s ‘lost opera’. Nigel Butterley is an Australian composer and pianist regarded as among the most significant of

his generation. Williams plans to compose a musical response to the incomplete opera held in Butterley’s manuscript papers in the Library’s collection for a workshop performance by the Sydney Chamber Opera Company for the composer’s 80th birthday.

Rain, rain, go away The Canberra Symphony Orchestra has a large and loyal following so it seems a pity that its most popular concert of the year, the Shell Prom, which is usually partnered with an Embassy or High Commission, has been spoiled by rain for the last several years. In 2012, organisers took the tough decision to cancel Carnevale di Canberra. This year, on 14 February, A Touch of Tartan rain started and continued steadily until the last note was played. Diehard fans donned rain macs and huddled under umbrellas but many families, especially those with young children, reluctantly left at interval. We know weather predictions can be fickle but given that summer showers are most likely to occur late afternoon, perhaps the wonderful team at the CSO could consider changing the time and make it a bit earlier? Just a thought.

Perfect your red carpet style

Just Cuts advertising moment

Connie Malfone, local Just Cuts Operations Manager and hair stylist of over 20 years, shares her favourite styles to achieve red carpet chic this season. e’ve had the Golden Globes, the very recent Grammys and before we know it, the Logies will be upon us. The real winner of red carpet season? The hair! From the sleek updos to the polished curls, award season brings out the very best in on-trend hair. This season, voluminous hair is back in a big way, with Meghan Trainor rocking big, round and undeniably gorgeous curls at the Grammys. Get the look: Connie recommends starting with a squeeze of frizz defence, following with a curling iron. “Start with some JUSTICE Professional Smooth & Groom styler to give the hair shine while keeping the frizz at bay particularly if trying in Canberra’s currently unpredictable weather. Follow with a hot curling iron, starting half way down the hair for a more natural look that will soften the face,” Connie advises.

Bobs were all the rage – and low maintenance to boot, with Rosamund Pike rocking the chinlength bob, smooth and straight, and Emma Stone choosing a more textured bob.

Get the look: This is a hairstyle set to stay. Keep it fresh with regular trims and a holding clay to keep shiny. “A layered bob is perfect for any face shape – the style allows for the hair to be adjusted to a flattering length to suit your own face. Keep it sleek by using a generous amount of JUSTICE Professional Clay, using a hair dryer to maintain the hold all night long,” says Connie.

The guys definitely weren’t left behind this award season, with John Mayer and Sam Smith both rocking a Mad Men style quiff. Get the look: It wasn’t named 2014’s most popular hairstyle for men for no reason! With the right length hair and the right products, this style looks award-winning on most hair types. “When getting your hair cut, ask for a medium length on top, with short cropped sides. Massage Firm Gel into damp hair, comb and allow to dry. Be careful with the part – it has to be straight for award-winning style,” says Connie. You can find Connie and her team of qualified stylists at Just Cuts Canberra Centre, Gungahlin Village, Tuggeranong Hyperdome or Riverside Queanbeyan. No appointments necessary. 57

‘Silence is the birthplace of happiness’: Create moments in your day where you set aside the thoughts of your busy mind.

THE BENEFITS OF SILENCE o how has the landing back to ‘real’ life been now that the holidays are over? Are you feeling refreshed and revitalised and excited about the year ahead or are you feeling a sinking groundhog day feeling of ‘here I go again’? If you do find yourself feeling stuck in a rut of a job or a relationship status or a life that doesn’t feel quite right, it can be a very confronting place to be. Don’t despair, for whilst it’s uncomfortable you are certainly not alone. When looking for a way out of a jam you can do worse than putting the kettle on a, having a cup of tea and doing a spot of reflecting on the truism that whenever you find yourself suffering, you’re likely to be having a ‘war with reality’. In other words, there’s a gap between how you would like things to be and how things actually are. The bigger the gap the more it hurts. What immediately takes the edge off the pain is to accept where you find yourself. Accepting where you find yourself doesn’t fix any of your

WITH WESLEY SMITH DIRECTOR, LIVE WELL SPA & WELLNESS CENTRE MANUKA livewellnaturally.com.au meditatewithwes.com

problems but it allows you call a truce between you and your circumstances and lets you begin to put your energy towards finding a way out of your predicament. Beyond acceptance you need a plan and from this point there are a thousand strategies in a million self-help books that would offer you one. My advice is to create moments in your day where you set aside the thoughts of your busy mind, for as the Yogis say, “Silence is the birthplace of happiness” not to mention creativity, imagination, contentment and a whole lot more. Pursuing moments of silence is the reason I meditate, whilst others drop into silence when they paint or play music or go for walks in the bush or prune the roses. Pick any way that appeals to you and honour yourself by making time in your life for the pursuit. Each time you emerge from silence, you will find it so much easier to see solutions your cluttered mind cannot and to formulate your path to where you want to be.

IN THE GARDEN THIS WEEK

Above: Some of the produce to be harvested, savoured and preserved at this time of year.

• Monitor soil moisture, particularly with newly established plants and also in the veggie patch as recent rainfalls in Canberra and surrounds has been somewhat random and predictably unpredictable; • Continue to harvest, consume and preserve all and sundry in the productive garden; • Harvest and dry edible herbs for future use whilst in peak condition. This is generally before flowering starts as their flavour tends to become pungent and their texture, stringy, when they do; • It is an ideal time to get out and harvest edible weeds as this summer has been particularly favourable for everything green. This means vigorous, lush, nutritious and tasty treats are

WITH HORTICULTURIST TRACEY BOOL

available for the forager and their families. • Consider seed to be sown and seedlings to be purchased for early autumn and winter crops. Canberra Organic Growers Society has a handy planting calendar on their website: www.cogs.asn.au; • Prioritise, organise, and methodically potter at a sustainable pace when it comes to everything garden related to significantly reduce the likelihood of a horticultureinduced conniption.

MINT 50th ANNIVERSARY OPEN DAY

Watch out for: Large Citrus Butterfly The Large Citrus Butterfly (Papilio Aegeus) is a species of butterfly which can be found in local gardens during summer. The larvae of this species are often considered a pest as they feed on the foliage of both native and introduced varieties of citrus. This showy butterfly has a wing-span of around 140mm and can be found in all states except Tasmania and Western Australia. The female lays her eggs on the upper surface of the leaves and shoots of the host plant. Once hatched, the larvae feeds for approximately four weeks and grows to around 60mm before pupating. The cocoon can vary in colour in order to more closely resemble the stem it is attached to. The butterfly emerges anywhere from one to six months later depending on the season.

A Large Citrus Butterfly, complete with its recently shed chrysalis, which I happened to stumble upon when pottering in my garden recently. If you take the fact that they eat citrus foliage out of the equation, they are quite enchanting and lovely insects.

Overall, I have found the damage caused by Large Citrus Butterfly in our climate to be minimal in a balanced garden ecosystem; and who can discount the lovely creature the caterpillar becomes and the fascinating journey which gets them there?

The Royal Australian Mint will host a family-friendly Open Day on Saturday 21 February 8.30am-4pm to mark its golden anniversary. The event offers visitors the chance to take a rare walk-through of the secure production areas of the Mint factory while coin production is in process ($5 per adult; children 16 and under free).

Franklin, which was Australia’s fastest growing suburb in 2009, will benefit from the ACT Government’s proposed Light Rail scheme.

Franklin: ‘close to everything’ ranklin is located on the doorstep of Gungahlin Town Centre and just 10 kilometres north of Canberra’s CBD. Established in 2007, the suburb was named after novelist Miles Franklin and its streets named after writers. Situated next to the industrial hub of Mitchell, Franklin boasts a number of large open spaces, including children’s playgrounds, walkways and bicycle paths with pedestrian access to Mulangarri and North Mitchell grasslands.

There are 47 hectares of landscaped recreational areas, along with the Gubur Dhaura heritage precinct and Old Wells Station Track. McGrath Gungahlin agent Adam Jones, who specialises in selling in the suburb, says it is popular with professional couples, down-sizers and people who are “convenience-savvy”. “It is a strongly desired suburb,” he says. “It’s close to everything – Gungahlin, CBD, Mitchell, it’s really close to Gungahlin Drive Extension if you want to go down south and it’s close to the airport,” Jones says.

Parts of Franklin, which was Australia’s fastest growing suburb in 2009, have views of Black Mountain Tower and the Brindabellas. The suburb will benefit from the ACT Government’s proposed Light Rail scheme (to commence construction in 2016) along Flemington Road. “There has been a noticeable change [in buyer interest] since in the light rail has been approved,” he says. Franklin has an early childhood school for children up to Year 3, with a number of schools, cafés and shops on its perimeter and a Woolworths supermarket under construction. It has a median household age of 29, which makes Franklin one of the lowest median age suburbs in the ACT. Over 44 per cent of the residents are foreign born, the third highest for any Canberra suburb.

Super idea for first home buyers The Real Estate Institute of Australia last week called on the Federal Government to allow first home buyers to use their superannuation to secure a deposit. Such a scheme, which is available in Canada, New Zealand and Singapore, would encourage young Australians to contribute to voluntary superannuation and then use this as part of the deposit for a first home. REIA chief executive officer Amanda Lynch said the scheme would be a “workable solution” for first home buyers. “We believe this scheme would be effective given that survey after

survey of first home buyers has found that an adequate deposit was the biggest barrier to purchasing a property,” she said. The call comes as the Australian Bureau of Statistics released its December data showing investors now account for approximately 41 per cent of all new loans – the highest level on record. First home buyers had dropped to their lowest share of the home loan market in 10 years. Mortgage broker Gerard Tiffen, managing director of Tiffen & Co, said any step that enabled first home buyers to enter the property market must be seriously considered.

“A creative way I have heard mentioned and is worth exploring is to use a person’s super as a ‘buffer’ that a lender would only be able to access in event of default,” he said. “For example, a 15 per cent deposit, 5 per cent super ‘buffer’ could enable an 85 per cent lend with no lender’s mortgage insurance required whereas it would normally be required at 80 per cent.” Tiffen said his company is processing a lot more loans where parents are required to provide a guarantee. - Lyndall Larkham Email property@canberraweekly.com.au

expert advice Diwa Hopkins Economist Housing Industry Association

What does the latest interest rate cut mean for the Canberra property market? While lower borrowing costs usually attract buyers to the housing market and push prices higher, the broader economic conditions in Canberra, dominated by the ongoing squeeze on public sector jobs, has poured cold water on the city’s property market. As a result, rental prices and, to a lesser degree, home prices have eased. With this situation likely to continue over the medium term, the latest interest rate cut is unlikely to materially stimulate Canberra’s property market as would be otherwise expected. HIA is forecasting new home building activity to decline for a second consecutive year in 2015 before starting to recover modestly in 2016. Yet despite this outlook, for those who can reliably afford to, current conditions of subdued price developments and low borrowing costs make it an opportune time to get into a new home.

Stylish heritage home GRIFFITH 11 LA PEROUSE STREET

ituated on a large 1,416 sqm block, this stylish heritage home in Griffith is nestled among beautifully landscaped gardens which offer both tranquillity and privacy. The house has been restored and renovated to maximise space, light and quality, agent Richard Luton says. A vibrant use of colour throughout gives the property a modern take on classic heritage living. Ideally located in one of Canberra’s oldest suburbs, this home is a short stroll to Manuka village and a number of schools, including Canberra Grammar and St Edmund's College. “It’s a very sought-after location,” Luton says, “only five doors from Manuka.” He says the interest in the property has been great, with “over 30 groups” attending the first open

for inspection. Luton says the house is an ideal teenage residence with segregated bedrooms and living rooms. At one end of the house, you walk through a sizeable parents’ retreat to the master bedroom, complete with modern ensuite. At the other end, there are three bedrooms and two bathrooms, and a rumpus room. The kitchen is well equipped with granite benchtops, dishwasher, a large Smeg range, centre bench and two sinks. A meals area leads to a cosy formal lounge room with fireplace and formal dining, which looks out to a gorgeous north-facing patio. The impressive outdoor entertaining area boasts a large deck, which is perfect for entertaining, and overlooks a sparkling in-ground swimming pool and beautiful leafy gardens.

PICK OF THE WEEK Best Exotic Marigold Hotel Saturday, TEN, 7.30pm, PG (2011) Judi Dench (left) and Maggie Smith lead a formidable cast of veteran UK actors on a trip to India, where the diverse group of characters find themselves after “outsourcing” their retirements. A widow (Dench), a retired High Court judge (Tom Wilkinson) and an unhappy couple (Penelope Wilton and Bill Nighy), among others, travel to the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel on the promise of advertisements seen back in Blighty. Of course, not all is as hoped.

No Country For Old Men

Skyfall Sunday, WIN, 9.10pm, M (2012) Fifty years and 22 films precede Skyfall, which, on its release, was lauded as the best Bond film ever. This is James Bond reinvented and Daniel Craig (above) gives such a strong performance that we can forgive him for Quantum of Solace. Judi Dench as M is practically the co-star of this outing, with plenty of screen time to show off her considerable acting chops. After a botched mission where 007 is presumed shot at M’s misguided order, she is pressured by new boss Mallory (Ralph Fiennes) to retire.

Monday, ONE, 9.30pm, AV15+ (2007) Javier Bardem (right) is stone-cold brilliant as the relentless killer who leaves no witnesses to his bloody pursuit of downto-earth Texan cowboy Josh Brolin and the stash of stolen cash he found out in the desert. Also on the hunt for the dough is hired gun Woody Harrelson, whose mouth is as big as his Stetson, while Tommy Lee Jones is the world-weary sheriff left to pick up the pieces. A clever meditation on morality, this cracking yarn is also a supremely violent and unpredictable cat-and-mouse caper that recalls the wit of the Coen brother’s cult classic Fargo.

This year is the ideal time for Emily to gather her inner resources – a unique professional or financial opportunity will call for the best she has to offer. A family commitment will take energy and patience; there’ll be awkward issues and details to sort out as she moves forward. A concerted effort towards a health or fitness goal will bring a breakthrough. Romantic vibes will be buzzing all year long as she welcomes new people into her social scene.

ARIES MAR 21 – APR 20

CANCER JUNE 22 – JULY 22

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

Stand by for a time of inner reflection. The planets conspire to assist you to be far more introspective. This is an excellent time to trust your own intuition and during the next month you will be feeling quite nostalgic.

Neptune in your solar house of adventure and travel increases your awareness of all the possibilities that lie outside the confines of your life. This is the perfect time to explore new neighbourhoods, develop an interest in exotic cooking or to learn more about the spiritual side of life.

Your marked ability to communicate your thoughts to anyone who is willing to listen is highlighted. Your confidence remains high, even in the presence of greatness. There could be great news about your job; you could receive a promotion and the recognition that you have been working for.

Your curiosity is stimulated as Mercury enters the area of your chart to do with learning and communication. Affairs in the lives of your siblings, colleagues, relatives and neighbours have extra importance. If you can’t make the progress you wish to with your goals, wait and be patient.

Romance can be strengthened and this is definitely the right time to tell someone exactly how you feel. Relaxation is advisable because if you get yourself uptight you could stutter and stumble. Turn your attention to any affairs involving investment, insurance, tax or shared resources.

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19

It’s a fantastic time for putting all the chores to one side and concentrating on fun. If you’re going to a social gathering then you’ll be the life and soul of the party. Just be careful not to go over the top or to offend anyone.

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEPT 23

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21

The Sun’s timely entry into your financial sector should be a great help to you, as your mind will be clear and you can see issues from a logical standpoint. You’ll be able to budget sensibly and pay off outstanding debts. Keep your own counsel this week.

Engaging in heartfelt discussions is something that comes as second nature this week, especially with family members and your life partner. Many issues that have been hanging over from the past can be cleared up. Look after your health and don’t put undue pressure on yourself.

With thoughts turning to home and family, you will prefer to remain in familiar surroundings this week. There are signs that coming to a final decision regarding a deeply personal matter may prove to be distressing so don’t make any choices without being very certain of yourself.

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21 As the Sun makes its entrance into your 11th house, friends are going to have a powerful influence on your prospects. Neptune’s harmonious angle to your own sign gives an optimism and vitality to your outgoing nature. You’ll be highly popular, boosting your social life.

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUNE 21 A free and frank exchange of views is signalled by the conjunction of the Sun and Neptune. In all working situations, from a shopfloor conversation to the most high-powered executive meeting, your views are important. On the personal front, communications with loved ones may be difficult.

CANBERRA AREA THEATRE (CAT) AWARDS What started from a tiny dream to recognise theatre talent 20 years ago has become a reality so big it requires a board and sponsorship. “In 1995 we had six companies and six judges and now have over 60 companies and schools and 17 local and four regional judges. The area has extended far beyond my original dream and the CAT mobile sponsored by National Capital Motors has seen us travel many kilometres far and wide.”

My favourite things STAR OF DAVID Coralie came from a Jewish family and for her 21st birthday her parents gave her a silver Star of David which has become her trademark piece of jewellery. “I never take it off so it gets washed every day but I have had to replace the silver chain a few times. I will be buried with it on my forehead.”

“I was brought up on chicken, long before it became popular. Coming from a Jewish family it was the staple diet and I still love it, roasted, boiled or fried!”

PUBLICIST AND FOUNDER OF THE CANBERRA AREA THEATRE AWARDS

Canberra’s “publicist extraordinaire”, Coralie Wood has been a stalwart presence in the theatre scene since she moved from Melbourne as an air force wife in the 1960s. “My husband John Wood was head of the VIP squadron and was away all the time so that’s why I got involved with theatre.” But Coralie had already done her share of acting as a child, voicing radio serials playing boys’ roles because their voices would break. She opened Canberra’s very first theatre restaurant with a show called Dimboola, a spoof celebration of a country wedding. “It was supposed to run for four and a half weeks… it ran for four and a half years!” - Diana Streak 202

FRIENDS “The painting presented in the Faces of Canberra Centenary project by Barbara van der Linden tells it all. My friends are very dear to me, especially my personal hairdresser, travelling companion and long standing friend Mr Charles – hairdresser to the stars.”

MEDAL OF THE ORDER OF AUSTRALIA Coralie remembers clearly the day she opened a letter in a supermarket to find she had been offered one of Australia’s highest honours for her contribution to the arts. The letter was emphatic that she was not to share the news with anyone, at the risk of it being rescinded. “I was told I couldn’t say a word, which for a publicist is dreadful, so I shrieked at the frozen peas!”
