This week...

For me, the Easter long weekend was a time to recharge the batteries, spend time with loved ones, reflect on the year to date, adjust future plans accordingly – and indulge in a piece (or two) of premium dark chocolate. Other than a fortnight off over New Year, Easter is one of the few breaks when I take more than two consecutive days off work. People often ask what I do to escape. Truth is, I love my roles at work and home so much, I rarely feel the need to get away from them. Bestselling author Seth Godin expresses it this way: “Instead of wondering when your next vacation is, maybe you should set up a life you don’t need to escape”. The secret is to find yourself a vocation, career or job that suits your unique talents, and vice versa. Nurture it and make the most of the opportunity. In Eastern traditions, at an individual level this concept is sometimes referred to as ‘dharma’, loosely meaning that you’re on the right path. You’ll know when you’re there. Reasons to be grateful this week include the Canberra Symphony Orchestra’s sensational Sibelius concert, drinking from the deep pool of multigenerational talent sparkling at the National Folk Festival, a reinvigorating extra-long weekend, Easter egg hunts, afternoon tea, soaking rain and colourful umbrellas. - Julie Samaras

Sign up for this year’s Million Paws Walk in Canberra to help raise money for RSPCA ACT and join rescue dog Andy as he leads the pack in a world record attempt for ‘most dogs wearing bandanas’.

ull of worms, covered in fleas and with matted coats, puppies Andy and his brother Hamish were left in pound dropoff kennels at just seven weeks of age. Yet there is a positive outcome for these two cute canines. Transferred to the RSPCA ACT shelter to receive vet treatment, the pups were in shelter care for two weeks before being adopted at nine weeks of age. During their stay, Andy and his litter mate Hamish were quite skinny. The RSPCA ACT provided the animals with appropriate diet as well as basic care including shelter, water, walks and socialisation with humans. In July last year, Andy went on to be named top dog in the inaugural Canberra’s Next Top Pet competition, which raised funds for RSPCA ACT. One of many success stories, Andy’s tale is also a timely reminder of why it is important to support RSPCA ACT through its fundraising and awareness events such as the Million Paws Walk (MPW). This year’s MPW will be held on Sunday 17 May, starting from Stage 88 Commonwealth Park at 11am. In addition, the RSPCA ACT is also attempting the Guinness World Record presented by ACTEW Water for Most Dogs Wearing Bandanas which will begin at 10am. This record is for the greatest number of dogs wearing bandanas at a single venue, which is currently 364 achieved by Golden Rescue (Canada). For those interested in involving their furry friends, the RSPCA suggests considering:

cover story

• Is your dog friendly with other dogs? • Is your dog able to wear a bandana tied around its neck or top of its head? • Is your animal fit, healthy and over one year of age? To be a part of the record attempt, preregister online with your four-legged friend by Thursday 30 April. The RSPCA ACT is hoping to get 4,500 registrants to the event (you can find a registration form inside this edition of Canberra Weekly) and to exceed a fundraising goal of $50,000. All money raised, through entry fees and the sale of merchandise, helps assist RSPCA ACT to operate its animal shelter, support its inspectorate services and provide community education on animal welfare issues. If you can’t get along to MPW on the day, don’t fret, there are still plenty of ways to help the RSPCA ACT including as a foster carer for animals currently in care. If you are interested, email rspca@rspca-act.org.au or call the shelter on 6287 8100. Additionally, pre-registrations are open for the sweetest day of the year, RSPCA ACT’s Cupcake Day in August, at rspcacupcakeday.com.au For more information about the Million Paws Walk or to register, please visit millionpawswalk.com.au

Puppy power at Million Paws Walk

- Allison Redman

A team of internationally qualified and experienced arborists have been hard at work removing dead wood from more than 150 mature eucalypts (Eucalyptus bicostata) among over 600 that line Anzac Parade. The trees are over 50 years old and require a high level of care and maintenance to protect the heritage precinct and provide public safety. The National Capital Authority (NCA) engaged Treeworks ACT/NSW for the works. The NCA is also seeking community assistance in helping to maintain the health of 6

the trees by not parking in the treed areas along Anzac Parade on Anzac Day as this causes soil compaction around the roots and suffocates the trees. In 2014, the entire four-hectare flanks to the Parade were cored, compost was applied and mulched to improve the trees’ health. This work has been successful in helping to extend the trees’ life expectancy. Arborist Russell Wright helps to tidy up the trees along Anzac Parade in preparation for Anzac Day.

capital hill Cracking nest eggs

rowing old is not a certainty. It is more of an aspiration that an increasing number are achieving. According to the Treasurer, the nation needs to rethink how it provides for those twilight years. Paul Keating’s idea was compulsory savings letting people build a neat little nest egg of their own. Reliance on the pension would then decrease. Great theory, but according to the Intergenerational Report, reliance on the pension is forecast to diminish only from 70 per cent to 67 per cent over the next 40 years. Hardly a dramatic shift. And this is where the government has tied itself in knots. Sure there’s a funding issue, but Tony Abbott in pre-election exuberance promised no change to pensions. He also promised to be much better than Labor by ending

the yearly uncertainty over super tax concessions and arrangements. The realities of government always have a habit of biting new incumbents on the bottom; this PM no exception. He told Alan Jones: “What I said before the election was that there would be no adverse changes to superannuation in this term of parliament, because we needed a period of stability. Now I don’t say that we can’t have a discussion about this. I am happy to do that.” On cue, Assistant Treasurer Josh Frydenberg is flagging a review into the entire superannuation tax concessions because the sustainability of them is under question. This would then form a key part of Joe Hockey’s conversation with the Australian people. At the outset, the government is still promising to implement

policies that would lead to “fairer, simpler and lower taxes”. A formula that simply does not stack up if it is going to apply to superannuation. By any measure, the lower or non-existent taxes on Australia’s wealthiest superannuants cannot be made fairer without raising their contribution to the public purse. Put simply, someone’s nest egg is going to crack. Consider this, eligibility for the aged pension and health card does not take into account the value of the family home or assets worth up to $1.1 million. Surely these people could afford to bear more of the burden these concessions impose on the Budget and all tax payers. Last week, analysis based on government data showed 24,000 of the richest superannuants, those with more than $2 million each

in their accounts, were receiving about $5.2 billion in tax-free income every year. By one estimate, trimming these and a raft of other concessions could save the Budget towards $25 billion a year – almost enough to pay down the deficit. Social Security Minister Scott Morrison says he’s willing to consider a trade-off of the generous eligibility concessions to retain the current indexation arrangements for the pension. They take into account CPI and wage rises. Tying pension increases to the cost of living alone would take $10 billion out of the pockets of poorer retirees. A rethink is certainly needed.

political capital ‘Cage’ decision has to be dealt with properly here must have been a lot of people who had brain snaps when the decision was taken to build a cage in a public school classroom to provide an area for a student with behavioural difficulties to have some ‘time out’. The Principal has been suspended while an investigation is undertaken. The education department is, rightly, refusing to reveal the school or the names of people involved. The child’s identity has to be protected. We will probably never know the names of the people, and we should assume there were several, who were involved in the decision-making process. That’s okay, so long as we trust the authorities to properly counsel everyone who at some stage thought this would be a good idea, and to also determine whether they are fit and proper people to be placed in situations

dealing with the welfare of children. What I would like to know is, at what stage did the child’s parents or guardians become aware of this ‘cage’? It would seem logical that they were asked for permission for this structure to be built, for the specific purpose of ‘quarantining’ their child from the rest of the class. If that’s the case, they must have said it’s okay. I have not had much to do with special needs children; I have no understanding of the pressures involved as a parent or carer. The alternative is the structure was built without the knowledge of the child’s carer. If that’s the case, it’s inexcusable. We understand the structure was in place for more than a week, again raising the question of the level of knowledge the parents/carers had. The other question this affair raises is the resources available to the Education Department to deal with

children with special needs. The head of the Education Department, Diane Joseph, is obviously unable to speak freely on this issue, but did suggest on 666 ABC Canberra ‘we could always do with more resources’. As a society, we still grapple with so many issues when it comes to dealing with people with special needs. Even writing about issues in this area is fraught with danger. But let’s hope in 2015 we do have at least a basic understanding of what’s acceptable and humane; let’s especially hope people in positions where their decisions directly affect the lives of people with special needs, they have more than a basic understanding. … I LOVE TO receive your thoughts on the issues of the week, including the topics I cover in this column. Thanks Rosemary, who responded to my rant about Australia behaving

WITH ROSS SOLLY, A CANBERRA MAN IN BANGKOK

like a backwater. “I have just travelled fairly extensively in India... Most of the top hotels we stayed in did charge exorbitantly for Wi-Fi and could often only be accessed by sitting in the foyer… I know you will say ‘but India is only a third world country’. However, the hotels we stayed in were definitely not third world... In our travels we too had to wait what seemed inordinate lengths of time in airports for our luggage to arrive from our flight.” Rosemary’s point is that the problems I was lamenting in Australia are similar throughout the world. And certainly in lots of parts of the world that is the case. I’m not sure though that Australia should take any comfort in providing services as good as India.

Prison officers to get final say on needle exchange program

lans to introduce a needle exchange program at the Alexander Maconochie Centre have moved a step forward with the ACT Government signing a Deed of Agreement with the Community and Public Sector Union (CPSU) last week.

ACT Minister for Justice, Shane Rattenbury, said the Deed of Agreement allows the ACT Government to move forward on the Enterprise Bargaining Agreement (EBA) to finalise the paying conditions with corrections staff, “but also a mechanism to continue

to deal with the policy issue of the Needle and Syringe Program (NSP)”. The Deed provides a 12-month timeframe which sets out a clear process for engaging staff in the development of an NSP model, including a joint working group to develop a model, a staff ballot process to determine support for any proposed model, and a commitment not to implement a model that is unable to gain majority support from voting staff. “The bottom line is we need to find a practical model that will work… for me it is all about the outcome,” Mr Rattenbury said. “I am concerned that, at the moment, prisoners are sharing needles, that is why the government remains committed to delivering a NSP

and I believe this is the best, most practical and most pragmatic way to get to the outcome we seek.” According to Alistair Waters, National President CPSU, their members supported the Deed by over 90 per cent but he still believes “the overwhelming view of corrections officers is that a NSP is not in the interest in the health of the prisoners or the good order of the jail”. “They are very pleased they are going to have a vote on any proposed model that comes forward,” Mr Waters said. “We think it is right and fair that on a controversial issue like this, there is clear support from staff before any model is introduced.” (continued page 14)

Prison officers to get final say on needle exchange program (from page 12) “As the Minister said, it is a collaborative process and we will be entering into that process in good faith and looking to work with the government to move forward to find a proposed model,” Mr Waters said. While welcoming the ACT Government’s latest efforts to progress the implementation of a NSP, the Public Health Association of Australia (PHAA) is concerned that ultimate implementation of the program is still limited to the endorsement of custodial officers via a ballot rather than all stakeholders. “It is important and appropriate that custodial officers are involved in the development of a model for the implementation

ACT Policing General Duties officers from Gungahlin apprehended four drink-drivers – two females and two males – during patrol duties in Canberra’s outer northern suburbs overnight on 1-2 April. The first of the four apprehensions was on the Barton Highway at Gold Creek around 9.30pm, when the male driver recorded 0.052, a low-range reading. Around 10.15pm at the same location, a 29-year-old woman from Crace recorded a reading of 0.094. Around 11.50pm, police patrolling on Flemington Road in Mitchell saw a silver Mazda being driven erratically. The driver, a 21-year-old woman from Franklin, recorded a reading of 0.158. The woman was a provisional driver and therefore restricted to a zero blood alcohol content. In the fourth drink-driving incident, police stopped a Subaru

on Wanganeen Avenue in Nicholls around 4am on 2 April when the 36-year-old male driver returned a positive screening test for alcohol. He later returned a reading of 0.084. All four drivers have been summonsed to appear in court on a later date. The Acting Officer-in-Charge of Traffic Operations, Sergeant Tracey Duck, said she was appalled by these four positive results within a seven-hour period, and that this anti-social behaviour should receive widespread community condemnation. “The community must share our level of concern because it is only by making drink driving socially unacceptable that we have a chance of preventing tragedies,” Sgt Duck said. “If any or all of these alcoholaffected drivers had been in a collision, then it would have been a tragic and wretched Easter for those involved.”

Midwife awarded Tom Calma Medal

or Aboriginal woman and inaugural Tom Calma medallist Karel Williams, graduating with a Bachelor of Midwifery from the University of Canberra and working as a registered midwife is the realisation of a lifelong ambition. After working in the public service for many years, the mother-of-four said she never stopped

wondering what it would have been like to be a midwife. When the University of Canberra offered a Bachelor of Midwifery in 2009, she applied and was accepted into the first intake. “I have always found the whole process of pregnancy and birth fascinating. I have wanted to be a midwife since I was at school, but there were life events that prevented me from pursuing this goal,” she said. Ms Williams was presented with the inaugural Tom Calma Medal at her graduation ceremony on Wednesday 1 April. It is awarded in honour of the University’s first Indigenous Chancellor to a graduating Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander student who has achieved outstanding academic results while making a valuable contribution to the university or wider community. In her second-year, Ms Williams, whose mother is a Wybra woman from southeast Tasmania and her father an Arrernte/ Waramungu man from Central Australia, did a placement at the Winnunga Nimmityjah Aboriginal Health Service in Narrabundah.

There she worked with Aboriginal women offering antenatal and postnatal care and returned to the service in her third-year where she provided supervised continuity of care to a number of women throughout their pregnancy, during labour and following birth. “It was really important for me to be able to work with women in my community and they told me this made a great deal of difference,” she said. “Having an Aboriginal midwife who they were familiar with helped them to feel safe and made their experiences better and special for them. It was really special for me, too.” Ms Williams has begun work as a graduate midwife at Canberra’s Centenary Hospital for Women and Children, where she will spend the next six months working in the Canberra Midwifery Program at the Birth Centre. Her long-term goal is to work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women and their families, saying there is a need for more Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health professionals.

It is proposed that Brindabella will comprise the district of Tuggeranong (excluding the suburb of Kambah) and the districts of Booth, Cotter River, Paddys River, Rendezvous Creek, Tennent and Mount Clear; Ginninderra, comprising the district of Belconnen (excluding the suburbs of Evatt, Giralang, Kaleen, Lawson and McKellar); Kurrajong, comprising the districts of Canberra Central, Jerrabomberra, Kowen and Majura; Murrumbidgee, comprising the districts of Molonglo Valley, Weston Creek, Woden Valley, Coree and Stromlo, and the Tuggeranong suburb of Kambah; and Yerrabi, comprising the districts of Gungahlin and Hall, and the Belconnen suburbs

of Evatt, Giralang, Kaleen, Lawson and McKellar. The ACT Legislative Assemblyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s electoral boundaries are being redrawn in preparation for the 15 October 2016 election. For the first time, the ACT is being divided into five electorates each returning five Members to the Legislative Assembly, with the total number of Members increasing from 17 to 25 at the 2016 election. A detailed report on the proposal is available on the Elections ACT website [elections.act.gov.au] and from the office of the ACT Electoral Commission. Members of the public are invited to make written objections to the proposal to the Augmented ACT Electoral Commission. Objections should be lodged with the Augmented Electoral Commission by Tuesday 28 April 2015.

ACT Heritage Festival advertising moment

Above: Lily’s family making use of the Trailrider on the 1km Woodlands Track at Namadgi National Park. This will be available for those with physical impairment on 14 April – so what’s stopping you experiencing our natural heritage? All aboard for the ‘Our Boys’ train’ event on 19 April – a re-creation of farewelling the troops heading off to the front 100 years ago.

Heritage festival explores conflict and compassion hat do knitting, fossilised trilobites, twoup, croquet, mountain biking, bush food, gumboot throwing, Chinese tea and the Battle of Waterloo all have in common? You'll find them in this year’s Canberra and Region Heritage Festival, which starts this Saturday 11 April. It’s the 34th festival and this year's theme ties into the Anzac centenary. How has our identity and heritage been shaped by conflict and compassion? Some of the 140 events link to this theme with the focus on local involvement, whether it was leaving for the front or helping on the home front.

There are exhibitions on such as When Hall answered the call, Gunning Remembers, Lest we forget at Nimmitabel, Socks, snacks and camouflage nets at Queanbeyan and, closer to home, A Community Remembers: the Anglican Church of St John the Baptist and the Great War. Many other events celebrate our natural, Aboriginal and built heritage. With bushwalks, open days, games, bike rides and craft activities, it is a great opportunity during the school holidays to learn about the olden days and our bush capital. Open days at Mugga-Mugga on 12 April and

Canberra’s own Norm Banham is thought to be the only person in the world to have successfully built replicas of all four of the Harrison (of Longitude fame) clocks. For the first time, all four will be on display together at the National Association of Watch and Clock Collectors display, The Importance of Timekeeping in Navigation, to be held at the Irish Club on 18 April.

Cooma Cottage at Yass on 18 April both have a host of family friendly activities including cow milking, egg tossing, a petting pen, badge making, colonial games, small cart rides and painting. Tuggeranong Schoolhouse will teach you to knit, just like children did 100 years ago when knitting socks for the war effort. See www.act.gov.au/heritagefestival for a full list of events.

Jessy McGowan the CEO of Barton Private Hospital (BPH) believes that there are three components for people who require elective surgery. First is a visit to the GP, second a visit to the surgeon and finally the visit to the hospital. As BPH is the third member of that important trio, we hosted an information and networking evening on 5 March which allowed GPs and surgeons to meet and observe the level of care that BPH can provide. We also introduced the surgeons that are new to Canberra and are now operating at BPH.

Contracted until the end of the 2016 season with the Raiders, Tilse said the decision to ask for an early release was based on an opportunity presented by Hull KR after the retirement through injury of former Raider, Michael Weyman. Tilse will have the opportunity to be selected for his 200th Raiders match against the Melbourne Storm at home on Sunday 12 April. Kick-off is 2pm.

10 things to do these holidays

2.30pm – 4pm

CT school holidays start this weekend, which means a chance to give your kids a break from the sometimes hectic pace of the school routine. While downtime is essential, so is having fun! To help you keep your children entertained, we’ve put together a list of ideas and events for the school holiday break. 1. Canberra and Region Heritage Festival is on from 11 to 26 April with plenty of activities on offer including workshops, torchlight tours and family fun days.

school break. Activities include woodwork, painting and craft. Call your local Bunnings for more info. National Gallery of Australia offers a range of activities for school-aged and younger children (great for siblings!). Visit nga.gov.au for more.

Visit canberrarailwaymuseum.org for dates and prices. RSPCA ACT is hosting Kids N’Kritters for children wanting to learn more about animals. Visit rspca-act.org.au/node/2287 for times and costs.

9. Fresh Food Markets: Belconnen Markets have a free, three-day celebration for kids from 17 to 19 April. Entertainment includes a jumping castle, petting zoo, face painting and live music. Fyshwick Markets offer holiday cooking, baking and pastamaking classes, as well as Spanish and Anzac-themed workshops. For kids of all ages, visit fyshwickfreshfoodmarkets.com.au for details. 10. Nothing at all… These holidays, consider spending some downtime with your kids by doing calm, simple activities. Child psychologist Jocelyn Brewer suggests getting back to basics over the school break in order to recharge and reconnect. “Children connect with their siblings and parents through play,” she says. “Calming craft activities that involve cutting, glueing, sticking and colouring can be totally absorbing and are a great way to enjoy family time together.” Basic activities can include simply talking, sharing stories, spending time in nature (especially during autumn), visiting your local park, baking or cooking some healthy food. - Melanie Collins

LET THEM EAT CAKE

We chat to the duo behind the Canberra Cake Club, where the rules are simple: bake cake, eat cake, bond over cake. It’s a sweet idea. rom the elaborate design you chose from the pages of the Australian Women’s Weekly birthday cake book for your Mum to painstakingly replicate, to the sophisticated three-tiered creation at your wedding, or the lightness of Grandma’s inimitable ginger fluff, one thing is clear – some of our greatest memories are inextricably tied to cake. Cake represents something bigger than flour, sugar and butter – it signifies celebration, milestones, joy. When Canberra bloggers Rachi Perrera and Giulia Porro both attended a bloggers meet-up in late 2013, it was over a shared love of baked goods that their friendship blossomed. Inspired by a similar project in Perth, it was during this first meeting that the idea for the Canberra Cake Club was born. “We started thinking about what we could do in Canberra, and that’s when it all started,” Perrera says. “We pick a location, a theme that sometimes goes with the venue. Each cake-up is different.” 34

It’s a simple concept with big appeal. Every six-or-so weeks, the Canberra Cake Club holds a ‘cake-up’ – bake something, bring it along to share, taste other people’s creations and take as much as you like home. In a city like Canberra, where over 23 per cent of the population was born overseas, and where so many people have relocated for employment, cake-ups also provide the opportunity to meet new people in a relaxed environment. “That’s definitely one of the things we had in mind when we set it up,” says Porro. “To make it a social event, a chance to talk to like-minded people who share a passion for baking and eating.” Since the club began in January 2014, they’ve held cake-ups at a diverse range of venues, from ice-cream stores, to gourmet food shops and cocktail bars, with unique themes like ‘pineapple,’ ‘coffee,’ and ‘America’. “There are quite a lot of people who come to every cake-up, but we get a lot of newcomers as well,” says Perrera. “At the first one, we had 15 people, and the biggest we’ve had is about

50! They’re getting bigger and bigger. The demand is there.” Whether you’re an experienced pastry chef, or an amateur home cook with a killer sponge recipe, you’re welcome at the Canberra Cake Club. To register for future events, keep your eyes on canberracakeclub.blogspot.com.au. There are friends to be made, and cakes to be eaten. Don’t forget your Tupperware! The April cake-up is a special ‘pink’ themed event, with proceeds going to Jo Allen and Ginny Thomas, two Canberra women undertaking a seven-day, 350km bike ride in Vietnam and Cambodia to raise funds for Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA). Tickets for this cake-up are sold out, but you can donate to the BCNA Pink Pedal Challenge by visiting gofundraise.com.au and searching ‘Jo and Ginny’.

Marie Antoinette may not have exclaimed “Let them eat cake!” on the eve of the French Revolution in 1789. Jean-Jacques Rousseau quoted it as early as 1740, and some historians have credited it to Marie-Thérèse, the wife of Louis XIV, who died in 1683.

Pavlova is believed to have been created in honour of Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova during or after one of her tours to Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s. The origin of the pavlova has been a matter of disagreement between Aussies and Kiwis for years, but unfortunately formal research suggests that NZ might have won this round.

Black forest cake is the English name for the German dessert Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte. German law lists Kirschwasser, a clear fruit brandy distilled from Morello cherries, as a mandatory ingredient, otherwise the cake cannot legally be marketed as Schwarzwälder Kirschtorte.

Many food historians believe cheesecake originated in ancient Greece and was served to the athletes during the first Olympic Games in 776 B.C.

Wine Harvest Festival Canberra is a pretty great place for wine lovers to live. The countryside around the ACT is home to more than 140 vineyards, and there are more than 33 wineries within 35 minutes of Canberra. The range in temperature, vineyard elevations and varying soil types allows for the production of a wide range of varieties – from Riesling and Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Shiraz, to Sangiovese and Tempranillo. The annual Wine Harvest Festival, on 11 and 12 April, is a chance to celebrate viticulture and winemaking in the Canberra region. With over 20 cellar doors open, and a range of events on the program, it’s shaping up to be a beautiful autumn weekend amid the vines. See canberrawines.com.au for program details and more information.

Pyrex turns 100

Dress up your salad

Most people have a piece of Pyrex glassware in their kitchen cupboard, often handed down from their nanna or mum. This year, the household name celebrates 100 years of providing the world with practically indestructible, heat-efficient and transparent glassware for baking, storage and freezing. To mark the milestone, Pyrex are releasing a range of anniversary products, including the iconic measuring jug (pictured), pie plate and dotted storage containers. The range is oven-, microwave- and dishwasher-safe, and available now from David Jones, Myer, Big W, Woolworths and selected independent retailers, with prices ranging from $9.95 to $16.95 per piece.

As the weather cools down, I’ve been getting a little more creative with my salads, adding wholesome roast vegetables – such as sweet potato or pumpkin – goat’s cheese, toasted almonds, to lots of leafy greens and a drizzle of sticky balsamic dressing. I usually make my own dressing, to avoid refined sugars and additives, but I’m enjoying the new organic sweet balsamic reduction by Jomeis Fine Foods. It’s sweetened using coconut sugar, and is 100 per cent organic, free from artificial colours, flavours and preservatives, non-GMO and gluten- and dairy-free. It’s also delicious. See jomeisfinefoods.com.au for stockists.

Portrait of Ali (left) by Hoda Afshar (above).

FASCINATING FACES

Three Canberra photographers are among 44 finalists selected for this year’s National Portrait Photographic Prize from a record 2,500 entries. n uncertain teenage father; a regal bearded woman; a man in medieval attire holding an owl; two children from remote Elcho Island engrossed in a computer tablet. These are just a few of the diverse subjects in this year’s exhibition. Dr Christopher Chapman, one of the three judges, says many of the portraits flicker with complex emotional registers. “Outwardly bold, they suggest inner reflection. Surety is based upon serenity, innocence is deepened by a flash of self-awareness.” Dr Chapman, National Portrait Gallery director Angus Trumble and guest judge photographer Nikki Toole, selected the 44 finalists for the prize, which aims to promote the best in contemporary photographic portraiture by both professional and aspiring Australian photographers. “While many images showed insight, drama or sensitivity, those that really made us pause conveyed something more,” he says. “Many of the photographs selected for the exhibition revealed to us something surprising

about their subject – we could strongly sense their candour, or trepidation, as they revealed a glimpse of their inner self.” This year’s winner of the $25,000 prize, now in its eighth year, was Melbourne photographer Hoda Afshar with her Portrait of Ali, a haunting portrait of a young Iranian boy in the mountainous region of northern Iran. Dr Chapman says the portrait was a unanimous choice for the judging panel. “The photographer has created a compelling portrait of the young boy. The rocky, misty setting creates a sense of mystery, intimating the boy’s future – likely as a shepherd.”

Alex Ellinghausen – Former prime ministers of Australia A chance encounter between two former Australian prime ministers was the subject of news photographer Alex Ellinghausen’s portrait. Ellinghausen is a political photo-journalist for Fairfax Media based at Parliament House. He says the photograph of Bob Hawke and John Howard is both a news photograph and

a portrait as it was a spontaneous moment which he captured. “In the course of my work I have to take a lot of portraits. This is more of an observational portrait rather than a sit-down portrait.” The photograph was taken when former foes Hawke and Howard addressed the National Press Club on its 50th anniversary in June 2014. “They were both invited to talk about their time in politics and during the address Hawke praised Howard’s gun laws and Howard praised Hawke for floating the dollar. “It was that exact moment after John Howard complimented Bob Hawke when he sat down and Hawke stretched his hand across and held his. You could see there was genuine warmth between them. “Usually a portrait is a transaction between two people – the sitter and the photographer. The subject has to give you permission or you ask the subject for something. In this case, it really is between the two of them, it has nothing to do with me.” (continued page 40) 39

FASCINATING FACES (from page 39)

Rohan Thomson – The Morticians

Former prime ministers of Australia 2014 (above) by Alex Ellinghausen (left).

As two-time Walkley finalist, threetime PANPA Award finalist and winner of the Australian Sports Commission photographer of the year, it was just a matter of time before Rohan Thomson made it as a finalist in the National Photographic Portrait Prize. Thomson, a photographer with The Canberra Times, took the portrait of two morticians at Tobin Brothers while on an assignment about unusual jobs. “It was taken in the room where they look after the bodies, fix them up, tidy their hair, before the person’s funeral. It was part of a story the newspaper was doing on interesting jobs in Canberra , so we approached them, and they were happy to have us around,’’ he says. In the photograph, mortuary workers Michelle Keevers and Josh Wallace prepare the deceased for their funerals. “Together they have seen the bodies of babies and children taken well before their time as well as those whose bodies bear the marks

of a long life. They have spent hours tending to the remains of people who have died in their sleep and even more on those who have been through trauma. They believe in the importance of their work in giving final dignity to a family’s loved one, and appreciate the role they can play.” Thomson has gravitated towards portraiture because he finds it more interesting than any other kind of photography. “You can tell something about someone from a portrait. A landscape is beautiful but for me there is no story in it. With a portrait you can create a story and tell something about the person or people in the picture and you can capture an atmosphere or a beauty.” But portraiture has its own challenges. “Not every person is easy to work with. You’ve got to build trust with people and represent the person with honesty, especially in a portrait like this where you are not taking a photo of a person smiling at their wedding. I’ve invaded a personal aspect of their lives and they are sharing that.”

Canberra-based photographer Marzena Wasikowska often captures tableaux of family life and in this picture, it’s an informal gathering around a table littered with wine glasses, mugs and a plastic milk bottle with a smartphone in the foreground and another being used to photograph the scene in the background. “At social gatherings, smartphones rule. One person’s click-tolerance is tested, another is respected. Already a reverse shot exists.” Wasikowska has described the camera as “the other offspring, the storyteller and the scribe”. She is married to photographer John Reid and all three children, Jess, Mia and Kai, are keen photographers. “As a family we have led

discontinuous lives since 2004 when Jess moved to Melbourne to study dance, Mia started to travel for work and now Kai is in Sydney. I try to record the intersections.” In the photograph, her famous actor daughter Mia, also a talented photographer, gazes enigmatically at the camera with teacup in hand and younger brother Kai on her left. During the filming of Jane Eyre, an image Mia took on set of director Cary Fukunaga and co-star Jamie Bell was selected as a finalist in the 2011 National Photographic Portrait Prize. The National Photographic Portrait Prize exhibition is at the National Portrait Gallery until 8 June. Entry is free. - Diana Streak

â&#x20AC;&#x153;An enthralling insight into combat flyingâ&#x20AC;? - Herald Sun

True stories from the men who flew in WWII Michael Veitch's life-long obsession with the aircraft of the Second World War led him to conclude that every single person who flew, or flew in them has at least one extraordinary story to tell. Over the course of a year, he interviewed over 50 former aircrew across Australia, many of whom had never spoken about their experiences before, even to their families. The result is Flak - a collection of vivid, unforgettable stories from RAAF veterans about their experiences of combat in World War II. From bomber pilots to fighter aces, from rear gunners to bomb aimers, from stories of death and fear to tales of humour and comradeship, Michael has helped unearth the extraordinary stories of ordinary men living and fighting in extraordinary times.

time out FILM REVIEWS Home (G) Get in the groove and move with the Boov in this imaginative and inventively intergalactic 3D animation. Colourful, life affirming and kooky, watching Home is like falling into a hyper-colour Hubba Bubba bubble of a dream where facing one’s fears and learning life’s lessons is as easy as drinking an oddly named slushy. Professional absconders, an adorable intergalactic race known as the Boov, arrive on earth to hide from their malevolent followers, the Gorg. Transplanting all humans to one location and removing anything deemed unnecessary (i.e. bicycles, toilets and trash cans), the orderly Boov’s new sanctuary on the best planet ever is perfect. Well, almost. Loveable misfit Oh (voiced by Jim Parsons), so named by his many friends with unveiled

eye-rolling and intense sighing; has a propensity for causing issues and when he accidentally sends an e-vite to an earth housewarming party straight to the dreaded Gorg, he instantly becomes Boov public enemy number one. Attempting to stay one octopus-like foot ahead, Oh forms an unlikely friendship with an adventurous girl named Tip (Rihanna) and Pig, her adorable fat-cat moggie, on a quest of her own. Through a comical series of adventures, Oh learns that being different and making mistakes is all part of being human and yourself. The verdict: As with most children’s movies, the “haven’t I seen this before” feeling is ever present but it’s the little touches that make this movie. There is something novel to enjoy in Oh and the Boov. 3 stars.

Fast & Furious 7 (M) Pegged as the last instalment of one of the most successful film franchises ever; this no-holds barred, high-octane, adrenalinefuelled sequel – for all its gear smashing – has a lot of heart. Finding a balance between speed, street smarts and sentiment, the tragic death of series staple Paul Walker early in the filming was handled with genuine sincerity. Like its six predecessors, a plot is merely a vehicle for action. For those who need it, the basics are as follows: the ‘family’ (Dom, Brian, Mia, Letty - Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Jordana Brewster, Michelle Rodriguez respectively) is finally back in LA but struggling to get back to a ‘normal’ life. Meanwhile, cold-blooded black ops assassin Deckard Shaw (Jason Statham) vows to take revenge for his brother having been thwarted in

their previous mission. Employing the philosophy “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”, Shaw teams up with mercenary Jakande (Djimon Hounsou) to steal the privacy eliminating gods-eye computer program, and kidnap the hacker who designed it. In a calculated move, government intelligence officer Petty (Kurt Russell) brings his backing and reach to the family’s table asking for their unique brand of help. As farfetched and overtly heavy-handed as some of the action in these films seems, there is something ultimately appealing, something that makes you feel like you are right there having just as much fun as the actors and film makers did in making it. The verdict: Another great series adventure and a moving tribute. 4 stars. - Joanna Baker

HOW TO BUILD A FIT LIFE

If we take the time to nurture our youth, their natural leadership skills will rise to the top.

have been very lucky over the years to have worked and developed health and wellbeing programs for the youth of today. One of my projects was working for 10 years throughout the South Pacific creating a program called Passport4Life and Passport4life4work, which focused fundamentally on improving the health of kids and helping them get work placements. Very rewarding! Recently, I created the School Obstacle Course Challenge (SOCC), which aims to encourage kids to become a community within their peer groups, build their teamwork, communication and leadership skills, and to understand their health better. The reason I’m writing my column this week about children and leadership is because we need to engage with our youth today – more than ever before. Many of my

mates who are over 40 have said that they wished they had someone to encourage them to work harder when they were young, so we should take the chance now to help our kids. We should be leaders and mentors. I get asked every week to help mentor children, which I love. But I also feel that we, as adults, are missing the opportunity to guide our future leaders. It’s easy to be objective about what the youth of today aren’t doing, but it’s our leadership that gets us out and about with the youth, and imparting our learning or life skills onto them. It doesn’t take much to help change a life for the better. In my experience, kids are hungry for leadership and mentoring, they want us to engage with them, we just need to know how. I truly believe that if we take the time to nurture our youth their natural leadership skills will rise to the top.

WITH LEE CAMPBELL, CELEBRITY TRAINER, HEALTH & FITNESS PROFESSIONAL BFIRM.COM.AU

My tips for mentoring • Take time to listen • Understand what they might be fearful of • Share your experience – the good and the not-so good • Help them understand what communication is (and isn’t) • Discuss what respect means • Empower them to make a decision • Talk about actions that have consequences • Follow up with them and show them you care • Share their success with them • Let them lead you or the group and make decisions • Give them feedback • Show respect and care • Encourage healthy living • Share exercise together

TOP TIP:

playful palette As the weather cools down, dĂŠcor styles are warming up. According to Dulux, autumn brings a playful approach to colour and design, with style taking its cues from a time when using bold combinations with geometric shapes was the norm. Brighten up your home with these autumn-inspired buys.

To create a bold feature, Dulux stylist Bree Leech says use a stencil in a single or multiple graphic shape. Draw them onto the wall, mask it off, then paint in colours that tie back to other elements in the room.

in the garden Gardening tips and tricks (from previous page) Growing sprouts Vietnamese style: Scroll down on the vietnamview.org website to find ‘How to grow bean sprouts the Vietnamese way’ - a handy factsheet describing how to sprout beans and other seeds using damp sand. It’s a method trialled successfully by a gardening friend but for a minor, though disconcerting challenge, removing all the remnant sand from the sprouts! If anyone finds a solution to this gritty issue, please let me know. Preventing weeds outstaying their welcome: Mother Nature doesn’t like bare earth and responds by covering it with fast-growing, pioneer plants with low nutritional requirements and exemplary reproductive capabilities. Generally these plants are considered garden pests and once they have produced seed, are

difficult to control. The vegie patch is one such place where the soil surface is commonly idle, moist and host to weedy plants outstaying their welcome. However, these unwanted plants also have many benefits including protecting the soil, encouraging beneficial soil life and increasing nutrient levels. Many are also healthy additions to the human diet. So what I am getting at here is if used smartly, weeds are your friends. The key is knowing which varieties to leave and which, including my nemesis couch grass, are less troublesome being removed straight away. The other key to managing weedy pioneer crops is removing seed heads before they mature to prevent their spread, and then digging them out when you are ready to plant your next crop of vegies.

Densities in the suburb of Bruce range from detached houses through to four-storey apartment buildings.

Everything at your doorstep

inutes to Belconnen town centre and other major facilities, Bruce has all you could wish for on its doorstep. It is a “very desirable” suburb, according to LJ Hooker’s Peter Clay, thanks to its proximity to Calvary Hospital, the Australian Institute of Sport, University of Canberra, Canberra Institute of Technology and Radford College. Bruce also houses the Fern Hill Park information and communications technology businesses hub, off Thynne Street.

“There is high demand from buyers who cite overall location and the proximity to these… as major influencing factors,” Clay says. Bruce appeals to first home buyers and students, he says, thanks to the availability of well-priced apartments and townhouses, and second family home buyers with its reasonably priced larger homes and proximity to quality schools and university. “At the moment there is a limited supply of available family homes, with solid demand meaning a high level of interest from family home buyers.”

In many respects the suburb is separated into the old and the new - with a large number of residential developments undertaken in the past eight years. Densities in the area range from detached houses through to four-storey apartment buildings. The best streets include Jaeger Circuit, which is highly sought after and closely held. The suburb was named after Viscount Stanley Melbourne Bruce, the eighth Prime Minister of Australia and the first Chancellor of the Australian National University. Many of the streets in Bruce are named after people and places associated with Australian tertiary education. On Census night 2011, 37.2 per cent of the population was foreign born, the eighth highest for any Canberra suburb.

Time to build for the future New Master Builders ACT executive director Kirk Coningham says the industry faces a crisis in confidence – not just in building and construction but across the economy. Coningham says the industry plays a vital role in growing the Canberra economy and creating jobs. “The commercial building sector is flat,” he says. “This has been exacerbated by the Commonwealth’s draw back on spending which impacts on office space requirements and residential housing.” He says ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr is sending strong messages about his intention to create activity to underwrite revenue.

“This is welcome but also a big challenge in the context of the ACT budget position.” Despite strong gains nationally, the latest data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics shows that building approvals in the ACT have fallen over the past 12 months, down 31 per cent. Coningham says land releases across the border at Googong have kept some at work, while local builders have been crying out for more land. “The LDA is working on Moncrieff but this is taking far too long… Done well, the release of land will stimulate the economy and

improve housing affordability – a win-win for future growth.” He says there’s plenty of promise for industry with upcoming projects such as the new Supreme Court, the University of Canberra Hospital, and the Northbourne flats precinct. “Canberra has real momentum,” he says. “I want to work with the business community, the government and the community more broadly to help ensure Canberra is increasingly a place where people come to find opportunity and enjoy an amazing quality of life.” - Lyndall Larkham Email property@canberraweekly.com.au

I am moving interstate. How long can I rent my house out before capital gains tax applies? An exemption to capital gains tax on your home is available if you move out of your property and rent it out. Provided you lived in the property prior to renting it out, you can still deem it to be your main residence and it will be exempt from capital gains tax for a continuous rental period of up to six years. This is known as the temporary absence rule and can be used provided you have only one main residence. The six year exemption period restarts if you move back into your home and then commence renting it out again. You are able to claim all available rental expenses against rental income, however expert advice should always be sought from your professional tax adviser.

A jewel of the inner north O'CONNOR 20 BOOBIALLA STREET

t is one of the most impressive residences to have hit Canberra’s inner city market in some time, according to agent Alexandra Charley. Designed as a “one of a kind” custom build, Charley says this five-bedroom executive residence has a commanding street presence and luxuriant and refined interiors. “Built just five years ago, the vision was to create a one-of-a-kind residence which retains superb solar passive qualities, but which also capitalises on the breathtaking 180-degree views across Canberra city,” she says. “The result is a home on a grand scale with an astounding 510sqm of floor space spread across three levels and with each level serviced by your very own personal lift.” The impressive chandelier-lit entry with waterfall feature is just the start of things to come. There’s also

a beautiful alfresco area overlooking an in-ground pool, a stunning lightfilled kitchen with walk-in butler’s pantry, an in-slab hydronic heating system, double-glazed windows and sub-floor storage. There are four separate living spaces including an upstairs parents retreat with a large private balcony with views to Mount Ainslie, Mount Majura and Black Mountain. All secondary bedrooms are large enough to be a main bedroom in their own right, she says, four of them with their own walk-in robes. The house, which would suit executive families and extended families, is close to the city and the popular O’Connor Ridge walking and bike trails. She says this stunning property has attracted enquiries from national and international buyers, as “properties of this calibre are a rarity”.

2015 BuildCare Seminar Series Let us help you create a home that’s better to live in now, that will be worth more in the future.

Hi Brendan, “Eco Pearl” was conceived as an energy efficient house around a north facing block which combines features incorporating disability friendly, ease of access, and utilises feng shui attributes, but above all else a home that has inbuilt flexibility for either a small or large family, or a family with older in laws who like a little extra freedom, or a family with teenagers requiring separate living space. The house was designed using zonal living concepts for a cool climate like Canberra. We had the idea of using space effectively and taking advantage of Canberra’s natural sunshine streaming into the house from early each morning. The Architect captured these attributes and designed a house to meet our requirements. Brendan and his professional team built the house with the attention to detail we appreciated and communicated in a way that left us satisfied we had made the right decision with the right builder for the right reasons. Brendan was always there personally to offer advice and assistance when required, including financial implications. His astute management of procurement saved us money as well. Which other Builder does all that? The final product incorporates quality of construction that some people would consider unaffordable today. Today’s Homes have more than met our expectations. After living in the home for nearly a year now we know we made the right decision. Today’s Homes are perhaps uniquely able to build something a little different, without compromising quality, and at an affordable price. ‘Maggie and Peter’

With interest rates at a record low, this is a must for the astute investor with a possible combined rent of $475 per week. You can actually borrow 104 per cent of the purchase price to also cover the settlement costs (obviously with sufficient supporting security). Close to golf club and boat ramp; inspections highly recommended.

The interiors tell of bygone romantic times and conjure up easy comfort and time to indulge in your favourite pastimes. Beautiful use of Cedar and Oregon in cathedral ceilings creates a sense of cosy warmth and the spacious living dining areas offer a sense of welcome. A slow combustion stove is contrasted with reverse cycle air conditioning.

April 10 – 16

PICK OF THE WEEK It’s Complicated Friday, PRIME7, 8.30pm, M (2009) There’s nothing complex about this predictable romantic comedy from director Nancy Meyers. Meryl Streep (above) plays Jane, a chef who is still coming to terms with her divorce from Jake (Alec Baldwin) 10 years earlier. But when circumstances throw the pair together again, sparks fly and the two launch into an unexpected affair – the tryst made all the messier for Jane by the attentions of her architect (Steve Martin). A middle-aged comedy that accomplishes more than it sets out to.

Friday

Stardust

We Were Soldiers Saturday, SBS1, 8.35pm, (2002) A brutal and resonant portrayal of the Vietnam War’s first major ground battle in November, 1965, exploring the honour and decency of the men on opposing sides. Leading the charge is Mel Gibson (above) in a powerful performance as the paternal commanding officer of a cavalry battalion, while his devoted wife (Madeleine Stowe) takes care of things on the rose-tinted home-front, informing distraught battalion wives of their husbands’ fates. Plenty of patriotic flag waving, but an effective tribute.

Thursday, ELEVEN, 8.30pm, PG (2007) Director Matthew Vaughn brings Neil Gaiman’s sublime Victorian-era fantasy novel to the big screen. In the village of Wall, a man (Charlie Cox) goes on a quest to win the heart of his beloved (Sienna Miller), but another journey in search of falling star (Claire Danes) is plagued with obstacles, most notably in the form of an evil witch (Michelle Pfeiffer, right) and a crossdressing pirate (Robert De Niro). Some outrageous cameos from British comedians Ricky Gervais and David Walliams make for a wicked and enchanting tale.

Fun experiences, the opportunity to cultivate advantageous new contacts and happy times with someone returning from afar will light up the year ahead. However, it will take thoughtful effort to sort out challenging family issues. She shouldn’t dismiss any advice that comes her way without giving thought on how best to apply it to her life; with a little thought she can turn it to her advantage.

CANCER JUNE 22 – JULY 22

LIBRA SEP 24 – OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 – JAN 20

If you’ve been through a rough time in your relationships recently, you will really be able to turn the page romantically during the coming year. One major blessing in your relationships is that you are likely to value yourself and that’s crucial! A new budget will help ensure longterm security.

It's a wonderful time for turning your attention to anything that needs serious thought or intense concentration. Older people or those with more knowledge or experience than you, both at work and at home, will be quick to pass on advice and help. Others will delight in your company.

A fortuitous encounter with a colleague will bring timely guidance with a confusing work matter. This is the ideal time to improve your diet and fitness routine through discipline and commitment. If you’ve strayed from the course you want, now’s the time to get back on track.

If you’re a parent, you may find that children are completely exhausting. If this should be the case, enlist the help of friends and, especially, your partner. If there have been any tensions or problems in the family, this is a good time for sorting them out.

TAURUS APR 21 – MAY 21

LEO JUL 23 – AUG 23

SCORPIO OCT 24 – NOV 22

AQUARIUS JAN 21 – FEB 19

Your energy levels are going to be high and you will be a real force to be reckoned with, however you must also make time to rest and relax. Glossing over the finer points of a family argument or financial matter will only cause tensions later.

Ambitious Mars is in your career zone for the first time in two years. In other words, you should be more fired up about your working life than you have been since early 2013, so put your best foot forward, as the planets are filling you with self-confidence.

This is a great time to sort out things at home and in your private life. For some, it’s going to be about having a good declutter. For others, it’s about facing up to the fact that you and someone in your family have issues that need resolving.

GEMINI MAY 22 – JUNE 21

VIRGO AUG 24 – SEPT 23

An ambitious financial, business or property venture will need finetuning. Small but important changes will help establish a path to success. Spreading your wings with a tough project will hone your skills in a new way. Reconciling differing ways of doing things with a relative or colleague will prove interesting.

Fun plans that are ambitious, doing helpful things for others, spontaneous promises and a special request that’s a lot of work may stretch your energy levels. In your love life, you need to be open and honest and avoid playing games. Ignore this advice at your peril.

There could be some tough financial decisions to make and you need to take your time. By being patient you should be able to avoid mistakes, whereas if you tear ahead you might have to retrace your steps, making things very complicated. Don't be afraid to seek professional advice.

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 – DEC 21 Now’s the time for putting into action a project or plan that is likely to enhance your future prospects. That isn't to say you should dramatically change your life, but you should be thinking of ways to solve current financial issues.

PISCES FEB 20 – MAR 20 You could experience a temporary lack of patience when driving or where matters related to education, children, paperwork or technology are concerned. When communicating with others, think before you act or speak, otherwise don’t be surprised if your sensitivities get a bashing.

FAMILY “My sister Sophie and I have grown really close in recent years. She’s just turned 21 and this photo was taken last time I was in Canberra earlier this year. This photo is in my room in Sydney.”

My favourite things COUCH TIME “Watching TV shows is one of my favourite ways to relax. Lost, Sons of Anarchy, Friday Night Lights and Breaking Bad are some really entertaining ones I’ve been watching lately.”

LOCAL FOOTY

“This is the jumper I wore playing for Belconnen last year in the NEAFL. I have played a lot of footy for Belconnen over the years and still have a lot of great mates from the club.”

GUITAR

GWS GIANTS

A product of the PM Capital Giants Academy, 19-yearold Jack Steele is ready to step up to the big league after joining the GWS Giants in November 2014. The Belconnen junior is the first player to be drafted out of Canberra since 2009. Jack has impressed the coaches over his first pre-season with head coach Leon Cameron believing he is set to make his AFL debut this season. The GWS Giants play at StarTrack Oval (Manuka) on Saturday 11 April, taking on the Melbourne Demons. - Allison Redman

“A mate of mine taught me the guitar a couple of years ago. I find it a good way to relax after a day of training. I learn a new song every couple of weeks and Taylor by Jack Johnson is my favourite song to play.”

MAN’S BEST FRIEND “I’m a dog lover and this is my girl Indy. She’s a Springer Spaniel and she’s been part of the family for five years. She lives at home with Mum and Dad in Nicholls and I probably miss her more than them when I’m in Sydney.”

MEMORIES “These are some pictures of me playing for the ACT in U12s at Nationals in 2008 and it’s been framed by former Collingwood player and now coach Nathan Buckley. He was my idol growing up and his words of encouragement ‘Be All You Can Be’ mean a lot to me.”
