Hi Everyone

T

his week I think I can refer to the edition possibly being the most glamorous of the year! We have included our Wedding feature, which as always involves lots of glamour and style. This is combined with a page that features the group shots from our local ‘Debutante Season’. What I am referring to is the Glasshouse Country and Maleny Debutante Balls that this year were held on the last two Saturday nights. And no, the glamour doesn’t stop there – we have also included ‘Out and About’ photos from the Vintage Calendar Girls Gala Launch held at the Beerwah Golf Club on Saturday night. And wait that’s not all, we have also featured a promotion for the upcoming Spring Fashion Parade and High Tea that is being held as a fundraiser for the Maleny Neighbourhood Centre – and will feature lots of gorgeous fashion items from Birdy Fashion and Beauty Boutique, Imelda’s on Maple, Maleny Jewellers and Maleny Optical. Hope you enjoy this touch of glamour to our regular read. Regards,

Local News Readers Cup For Year 4 students from across the Range, reading took on a new dimension last Friday, when they got involved in Gary Crew Hinterland Reader's Cup held at the Maleny State School Hall. There was plenty of excitement in the hall as the students who represented Maleny, Conondale, Montville and Mapleton started the day with their rousing war crys. Then it was on to the competition. Over the past few weeks, students were required to read a selection of four books, and on the day the teams representing each school were asked a series of questions about those books and scored points for the quality of their answers. This was combined with a writing task and scores were attributed to each group throughout the morning. The competition was neck and neck and came down to a tiebreaker. And when Conondale were annouced as the winners on the day, the smallest school of the day, proved that they had the biggest cheers. Conondale State School Principal Adam Vlieg said that the students had really enjoyed reading the books before the event, and had really been looking forward to attending on the day. Division 5 Councillor Jenny McKay said the annual Gary Crew Hinterland Reader’s Cup, presented by Sunshine Coast Council’s Maleny

www.gcnews.com.au

Conondale team Rhona, Abbie, Cam, Jacinta, Judah, and Dimity with Gary Crewe Library, promoted literacy and reading for life. “The Cup has been running for 14 years and the main partner is local prize winning author and academic, Gary Crew,” she said. “Gary is Australia's most awarded author for children and young adults, having won the Children's Book Council Book of the Year four times - twice for his young adult novels and twice for his illustrated books. “Gary has also won the National Children's Book Award, the NSW and Victorian Premiers' Awards, the Ned Kelly Award for crime fiction and twice been shortlisted for the Edgar Allan Poe Mystery Fiction Award in the USA. “The Gary Crew Hinterland Reader’s Cup culminates in an exciting finale where school teams demonstrate their knowledge and comprehension of selected books. ”

After seeing the passion and support shown by people at the recent Aussie World rally to save the exits to and from the Bruce Highway, Mr McArdle has secured a meeting with Mark Bailey, Minister for Main Roads so the community can address their concerns to him directly. “After speaking with Minister Bailey during Parliament I am pleased to hear that he has since arranged to meet with Steve Amos, the owner of the Aussie World Garage and Mike Doreshenko of Save Exit 190 lobby group, to discuss their concerns about the impending closure of the northbound exit,” Mr McArdle said. “I am heartened by the news that the communication channels have re-opened and look forward to hearing that a resolution can be reached that protects the livelihood of people who work and own businesses in the Aussie World area.” Owner of the Aussie World Garage Mr Steve Amos is similarly pleased with the Minister’s interest.

“On behalf of the many businesses located at this complex and surrounds which depend upon local and tourist traffic to fund their businesses, we are delighted with the opportunity to share our concerns with the Minister,” he said. “As we have petitioned on numerous occasions, we the businesses directly affected by the deletion of Exit 190, would like to see direct access retained to allow us to keep our businesses, and the people we employ, functioning long term. “A better alternative for our community and the rainforest along Steve Irwin Way has to be found. Easy access without destruction of environment and community has to be achievable allowing a balanced result for all those involved and not just one party,” Mr Amos said. Mr McArdle said the current proposal has people travelling away from Aussie World before they can access a road to get back to Aussie World. “The current proposal is clearly flawed and I thank the Minister for agreeing to the meeting and urge him to be ready to truly listen to and consider legitimate alternatives.”

Mal Brough steps up

By Lea Parkes

The Witta community numbers swelled on Saturday when the Witta Rec Club hosted the inaugural Witafest event created to celebrate the cultural history of the village formerly known as Teutoburg. The theme for this year’s event was ‘Teutoburg up to 1900’ the early years of selection, survey and settlement. Naturally there was a strong historic focus on the day, which included Bill Kitson. He's one of Queensland’s best known surveyors, a highly respected spatial historian and Witta local. Bill was on hand to answer questions and share his local knowledge with both locals and visitors to the event. There were also guided tours of both Witta’s Church and Cemetery which were well attended. Those interested in the local environment had the opportunity to do a guided walk with Spencer Shaw on Berganns Lane, strolling along the historical road reserve checking out remnant rainforest and 10 year old revegetation. There was also an extensive entertainment Rebecca Wright and Donald McKay were performing traditional Scottish music

Talented Conondale performers Astar and Rawhina program including live music, workshops, traditional games, and the opportunity to dress up and have a 19th century styled photographic portrait taken, along with gourmet food and beer. Event co-organiser Steve Chaddock was pleased with the day, and very pleased that the weather was on their side. Too keep up-to-date with their plans for next year, make sure you like their Facebook page or check out their website www.witafest.org

At the time of going to print, local Federal member for Fisher Mal Brough had just been sworn into the Cabinet of the new Malcolm Turnbull-lead government. As well as being the local Federal Representative for our readership, our Mr Brough is now the Special Minister of State and the Minister for Defence Materiel and Science. Minister Bough is no newcomer to a Ministerial portfolio. He previously served in the Howard government in various roles including the Minister for Employment Services, the Assistant Treasurer and Minister for Revenue, and the Minister for Families and Community Services and Indigenous Affairs. As the Special Minister of State, Mr Brough will be responsible for various parliamentary, electoral, financial, public service and oversight affairs. As the Minister for Defence Materiel and Science, his duty is the oversight of defence procurement, financial management, project and sustainment management, materiel engineering, and materiel logistics to ensure the Australian Defence Force is equipped and supplied with the requirements as identified and approved by government. Although these new roles in the Turnbull government will inevitably see Minister Brough drawn away from the area more frequently, it can only be a positive for the region that the electorate of Fisher has a voice in Cabinet.

Wild dogs need to be controlled Wild dogs – which are commonly known as feral dogs rather than dingoes – are a constant concern for local Glasshouse Country and Blackall Range farmers, landholders and pet owners alike. As part of a broader integrated approach, Community Programs Portfolio Councillor Jenny McKay said Bio-Security Queensland and Sunshine Coast Council support local area coordinating groups to undertake proactive wild dog baiting programs. “Landowners have a legislative responsibility to control declared pests on their land and participation in wild dog baiting programs is an effective way to help meet this responsibility,” Cr McKay said. “The current community led wild dog baiting program is being held from September 14 to October 9, for participant properties throughout Bald Knob, Beerburrum, Beerwah, Belli Park, Bells Creek, Cambroon, Conondale, Coochin Creek, Crohamhurst, Curramore, Eerwah Vale, Elaman Creek, Gheerulla, Kenilworth, Kidaman Creek, Maroochy River, Peachester, Reesville, Valdora, Witta and Yandina Creek. “The baiting program is offered to eligible local area coordination groups at least twice a year, with each program lasting for around four weeks.” Cr McKay said there were further methods landowners should take to reduce the impact of wild dogs and council officers were available to assist with education and action. “Council officers are also available to arrange site assessments and to train residents in proactive and reactive trapping.

“In cases where livestock or pets have been harmed, council officers will at times install motion activated cameras on the properties to determine if the dogs that caused the damage are domestic or wild dogs. Different capture techniques and strategies are employed, dependent on this determination.” Cr McKay said generally hinterland areas have the most wild dog sightings, however there had been a steady increase of wild animals reported in the fringe between the urban and rural land (peri-urban land areas) throughout South East Queensland. “Council has been working with Biosecurity Queensland on a peri-urban wild dog research program to monitor, track and identify dispersal patterns for wild dogs throughout South East Queensland,” Cr McKay said. Residents are encouraged to report wild dog sightings, incidents or requests by visiting council’s website or calling 5475 7272. Council will then investigate and action as appropriate.

Sportsground plan for the future The Beerwah Sportsground committee is inviting members of the local community to bring along creative ideas to a strategic planning session scheduled at the Sportsground from 9.30am until 12.30pm on Friday, October 2. The plan will outline committee aspirations and priorities for the facility for five years from 2016 – 2021 and it is hoped that more community members will get involved. “This is a fantastic community asset used by many people in the community. We would like to see even more people involved in the site in years to come and would love to hear fresh ideas from the community,” said Beerwah Sportsground committee president, David Weil. Right now the grounds are home to numerous recreational clubs such as Beerwah and District Rugby League, Beerwah Bocce Club, Glasshouse Horse and Pony Club, Beerwah and District Youth and Community Centre (BADYACC) and the Sunshine Coast Kennel Club. It also houses tennis courts, a skate park, the Beerwah Aquatic Centre and is used for camping by people from all over Australia. Strategic plan facilitator, Ana Greenfield from Hinterland Community Development said it was a great opportunity for the community to come together and dream big for the sportsground. “A lot of new energy is in Beerwah which is evident in the events and recent development that has taken place in the town,” she said. The sports ground site was once crown land designated as a Reserve for Recreation and Showgrounds with the former Landsborough Shire Council.

Voices in unity

A concert of choirs will be held at the Montville Village Hall, from 2.00pm - 4.30pm on October 11. This wonderful event combines not only the voices of two remarkable choirs Sweet Chilli, and the Nightinguys, but also their expressions of love of music, song and story. The Nightinguys are eight men chock-full of fabulous a capella music. Audiences love the passion and humour and their community cabaret shows are always at capacity. With six enthusiastic years of singing the exquisitely tasty arrangements of Musical Director Dale Jones, they deliver a powerful sound with rich harmonic textures. The women of Sweet Chilli have had a high profile on the Blackall Range for the last 12 years, performing at Music Festivals, Interfaith Events, Community Galas and Fundraisers, and private events and ceremonies. Their sumptuous three and four part a cappella repertoire includes songs from – Africa, India, Sweden, Japan, Poland and several Pacific nations.

Are recurring headaches controlling your life? Day after day of missing out on things, or just being miserable, irritable and looking much older than you really are?

Recurring headaches are not normal! While headaches are terribly common, they are NOT normal. The normal condition of the human body is vibrant and healthy...not tired and painful! Pain is our body’s alarm system that something is wrong. So – if you often say “It feels like my head is in a vice”, or “I’ve had migraines since puberty” or “My neck and shoulders are always tight and tense” and you just want to go and lie down - then pay close attention now. Four major causes of headaches are dehydration, stress, food intolerance, and neck subluxations. And each of these causes has a path to relief. The most little known is neck subluxation. Can this help your headaches? Subluxation is the term chiropractors use to describe ‘dysfunctional’ vertebrae in the spine. Upper neck subluxations very commonly cause ‘Cervicogenic Headaches’. This type of headache presents with neck stiffness and pain at the base of your skull, which can sometimes radiate through to your eyes. Drugs can reduce the symptoms (turn off the body’s alarm) for a while, but they do not correct the cause – and the symptoms return. Many studies have shown the benefits of treating the neck subluxations of headache sufferers, including the Boline and Duke Studies. If you are having headaches something is wrong. Chiropractic is a safe and effective form of healthcare that treats a major cause of headaches, the Subluxation. Call Adjust to Life Chiropractic today to find out if your headaches are a good fit for our very successful Headache Relief Program.

Contributed by Bob Banner The Beerwah Lions Club had a busy start to September with 266 kilograms of empty aluminium cans purchased and sent off for recycling. Lion Bob Banner presented a short report on the success of the recent Beerwah Charity Sports Day. Glasshouse Country should be proud of its combined efforts in raising money for cancer research, he said. Zone Chairman Rob Hobson was a guest at the September Dinner Meeting.

Maleny Commerce Update With Spencer Shaw

The results of the Range Restaurant and Cafe Awards are in and the Winners are ‘us’ for the amazing food culture at our fingertips here on the Blackall Range! The people have spoken and all of the participating dining venues are considered winners. After counting more than 2000 votes, the outstanding results achieved by all confirms that here on the Range, we deliver amazing food experiences. In the restaurant section, this year's winner is Bella Vista Mapleton. Congratulations to Leigh and the team with runner up Maudy's Bistro & Bar - well done Sam and Ron's team, in a close result.

The café section was very close with Waffle-On Stroopwafels, who nudged in front of runnersup Little May Espresso and the Mary Cairncross Cafe’s team in a photo finish. The Most Outstanding Restaurant staff winner is Leigh Oakley of Bella Vista who has a huge fan club. The Most Outstanding Café staff is the service supremo Jess Mitchell of Elements at Montville who was also last year's winner. Big thanks to Andrew Powell, Julie Shelton Real Food Festival Sunshine Coast, and Cr Jenny McKay for helping with the officiating. The results of the Restaurant and Cafe Awards were announced at Real Food Festival and congratulations to Julie and team for another

outstanding event this year. Karen and myself were fortunate to MC one of the speaker's venues this year and the talent that you can tap into at these presentations was very inspiring. It was well worth a seat to digest some great ideas as well as the great feed you’d just had! Business tip of the month is: don’t look at people coming in your door just as customers and your relationship with them as purely a financial interaction. We are fortunate in Maleny to have a large percentage of our business coming to town through tourism but building your business locally is about building positive community relationships. Most of the long-term successful businesses in our town work with their community and we all benefit through this.

Long lasting high gloss protection for your vehicle Family owned and operated AAA Detailing Beerwah, are excited to let customers know about ‘Fire Glaze’ … a professional auto polish that offers superior and long lasting results. Fire Glaze, designed and manufactured in the USA, does not contain any silicone, teflon, wax or acrylic based products. It does however, contain an amount of tempera-flex; a unique nano-technology product and UV inhibitors, which protects your vehicle while importantly still allowing the paint to breathe. Fire Glaze will provide UV protection against damaging sun and the natural elements for up to three years before reapplication is required. The main cause of fading paint is oxidization and Fire Glaze stops this from happening. After application, your paint feels as smooth as silk and virtually eliminates dirt and grime build up. Bugs can easily be wiped off with a damp micro fibre cloth.

Fire Glaze can also protect against salt, road tar, diesel fuel, unleaded fuel and even brake fluid. When applied according to instructions, Fire Glaze can also retard or even eliminate damage from tree sap, bat and bird droppings, carbonated drinks, eggs, glue and ink. This highly effective polish is used in America by leading companies including Coca Cola, Mazda, Boeing Aircrafts, US Navy and US Air Force. Fire Glaze Plus can be applied on any painted vehicle or product such as cars, trucks, caravans, planes, stainless steel, fibreglass, chrome and polished aluminium. AAA Detailing Beerwah have applied Fire Glaze to many types of vehicles including marine vessels, cars, trucks working in the mining industry, earth moving equipment, aeroplanes, tip trucks and high mileage vehicles. Customer feedback has been unbelievable. Owner Jamie has seen vehicles that have had the product applied go up to the far North Queensland Cape and return unwashed looking like they have just been on normal dirt roads! He has seen similar amazing results from a customer’s car that was treated one year ago and has travelled over 9,000 km through the rugged terrain of Queensland’s west. This is a highly effective product that really works. Fire Glaze will provide protection for up to three years without any renewal application. Besides one coat lasting three years and protecting the vehicle from oxidation, Fire Glaze is a one-

step product. There is no rubbing compound necessary on most vehicles. Fire Glaze will also protect against nature’s elements including UV and is an all climate sealant. The current Fire Glaze formulation is a totally revolutionary chemical composition originally developed by Ameri-Chem manufacturing company engineering staff 15 years ago, and has been continuously upgraded and perfected over time. AAA Detailing Beerwah, located at Shed 5, 1 Roys Road Beerwah, is the only distributor and supplier in Queensland. Depending on vehicle size, prices start at $200.00 for professional application; alternatively, customers can purchase the product and apply to their vehicles themselves. For more details see their website www. aaadetailingbeerwah.com or contact the office on 5494 6149, Jamie on 0427 882 327 or Jodey on 0416 729 395. Business feature

Bushfire preparation is your responsibility

CALL US

TODAY TO BOOK IN THE KIDS, FAMILY & FRIENDS !!

Unlimited Classes !! Unlimited Places !! Unlimited Fun !! Keep your kids active these school holidays with our Dance & Martial Arts Holiday Activities

Landsborough — Beerwah — Glasshouse Mtns

Contributed by Gavin Stewart, Volunteer Community Educator This week, we’ll look at the Prepare part of getting ready for bushfire season. Prepare your Bushfire Survival Plan. Your Bushfire Survival Plan will be critical to you surviving a major wildfire event. Some of the issues you need to consider include: Does everyone in your family understand the dangers of bushfire and how your plan will be put into action? Have you arranged appropriate car and household insurance? Do you know what you will take with you if you need to leave early? Have you considered how to deal with pets and livestock? To learn more about preparing your Bushfire Survival Plan, go to www.ruralfire.qld.gov.au and click on the Bushfire Survival Plan tab. Prepare your property. Clear space around your home and property. Remove any fire hazards from around your home including undergrowth, raking up leaves, twigs and removing low branches. Ensure there is access to adequate water and fire fighting equipment for you to use in the event of a fire, and that fire trucks and emergency vehicles can easily find your property and can move around easily once they are there. Prepare yourself. Prepare a bushfire survival kit for the eventuality of you staying during a fire, and separately a relocation kit for the eventuality of you having to leave and evacuate. The contents of each of these will be set out in your Bushfire Survival Plan (the website sets out what the contents will need to be). Prepare yourself mentally and physically. You need to be prepared both mentally and physically for the ferocity of a bushfire. You also need to be mentally prepared to calmly carry out your bushfire survival plan, even though your emotions may be telling you otherwise. To help you be ready, contact a Community Volunteer Educator from one of local Rural Fire Brigades. Glass House Mountains, Kirsty Levis – 0418 980 019 and Steve Rook – 0407 572 930. Landsborough V.C.E. Kevin Sedgeman – 0429 940 991. Maleny V.C.E.

FIFO Connect meetings are positive and fun and also allow for discussion of the common issues that affect families. “A lot of FIFO families are new to our area.

Cover stars win Australia wide competition By Sonia Clark Last month we featured a cover story on Heather and Gordon Wright who were celebrating their 65th Wedding Anniversary in our August 12 issue. Following up on our cover couple - the Glass House Mountains residents were recently fortunate enough to win an incredible weekend away to the Margaret River in WA through a national competition they entered with Muffin Break. Gordon completed his entry by answering the question ‘Who would you like to share a coffee with, where and why?’ in 25 words or less. Gordon wrote that he would most like to share a coffee with his wife Heather in South Australia where they first met and that they are celebrating 65 years of marriage together. Gemma Fitzsimons, Marketing Manager ANZ Muffin Break, said one of the reasons why the Wrights’ won the ‘Weekend with Friends’ competition was because they were the true

definition of life-long friendship. “Sharing a life filled with laughter, a positive outlook and common interests is truly special,” she said. Gordon chose Margaret River from three locations as it was the furthest away and it was a great opportunity to also catch up with friends from the region. The prize valued at $4,000 includes return airfares, two nights five star accommodation, breakfast and car hire. Also included in the prize was a gourmet dinner for two and a tour to the regions premium wineries, food and creative establishments.

District Governor welcomed Contributed by Diane Hobson Lions District Governor Rodd Chignell and his wife Lion Wendy were welcomed at the Mooloolah Valley Lions Club September dinner meeting, held at Glenview Gardens. It was inspiring to hear him talk about Lions and share ideas about how the club might further serve the community. Rodd and Wendy have dedicated so much of their life to serving others. Rodd has been actively involved in community service activities for over 36 years. Outside of the Lions, Rodd is also involved in developing youth and community projects in his local area. We also welcomed a new Lions member to the club. Fran has been a valued volunteer at the club for many years. After hearing Rodd talk, she was herself inspired to further support the club, by officially joining the group. She realised that our club values all levels of support. President Kathy Selleck presented a cheque to Michelle from the Glenview State School P&C and another cheque to DG Rodd for the Lion's Children's Mobility Fund. Mooloolah Valley Lions are very supportive of local schools, groups and community initiatives and are looking for like minded people to join the club. We welcome anyone from the local community including Mooloolah Valley, Palmwoods, Eudlo, Glenview and beyond, who would like to come to our Lions dinners.

If you would like to be involved in building the community and helping others, please feel welcome to come along and meet our club. Just let us know ahead of time for catering purposes. Dinner meetings are held at Glenview Gardens on the third Tuesday of the month at 6.30pm for 7.00pm. Please contact Diane on 0403 871 842 if you would like to come along or for more information. We look forward to meeting you.

Cats and dogs living in harmony with kookaburras, blue tongue lizards and ringtail possums? It can happen. Learn how at a free public seminar hosted by the Sunshine Coast Council and presented by the RSPCA. The seminar will be held on Thursday, October 1, from 6.00pm at the Lake Kawana Community Centre. Environment Portfolio Councillor Jenny McKay said the free seminar is aimed at local community members and pet owners who are keen to learn about and protect local native wildlife. “This is a great opportunity for local cat and dog owners to learn how to keep their backyard safe, and be a responsible pet owner,” Cr McKay said. “The RSPCA’s wildlife veterinary team will offer tips and lessons on how to reduce your impact on, and live in harmony with, our native urban wildlife. “Participants will have the chance to have all of their wildlife questions answered.” Each year over 15,000 wild native animals are presented to the RSPCA Qld Wildlife Hospital, and that number is growing. Interested participants can book online at the Council’s Community Hub Website or call 5413 1400. The Lake Kawana Community Centre is located at 114 Sportsmans Parade, Bokarina. Parking is available at the venue.

Relay for climate change The Sunshine Coast Environment Council (SCEC) is organising its second annual Climate Change Relay to be held on Saturday, September 26, between 10.30am and 8.30pm. The Climate Change Relay is a community event organised by the Sunshine Coast Environment Council (SCEC) to call for urgent action on Climate Change. The relay will walk along the beaches of the Sunshine Coast starting at Sunshine Beach (10.30am) and Kings Beach (12.15pm) and finishing at Cotton Tree (5.45pm). The route is divided into 35 stages of approximately two kilometres each and people can join at any point along the route for one or more stages. Remember, although the relay consists of 35 stages of approximately two kilometres each, people can join at any point along the way, and take part for as many stages as they want. Full details on all stages can be accessed via the SCEC website (www.scec.org.au)

Friends of Mary Cairncross Association Birds and bats

with Sue Tanner With the beautiful warm weather we have been having recently (what happened to winter this year?) many of our migrating birds have already returned to the rainforest. The cheeky Rufus Fantails (pictured) can be seen on the forest floor often very close to the track with their pretty orange fantails displayed. Fruit doves can be heard calling, in particular the distinctive low sound Wompoo. Whip birds and Green Catbirds hold ‘conferences’ across the forest and the Paradise Rifle Bird can also be heard, with a loud screeching cry. One of the joys of being on the information desk in the afternoon is watching the pond for the many bird species that come to drink and wash. On a recent shift I saw a Golden Whistler, a couple of Lewin’s Honey Eaters, a Spectacled Monarch and several others since forgotten (I’m sure they’ll be back). The Grey Faced/ Headed Flying Foxes are still in the Piccabean Palms near the creek. They are very chatty especially when joined by the Red and Little Black Flying Foxes – they can be heard all over the forest. I had a group of kids on the Rose Gum platform a week or so ago and the whole colony of flying foxes took flight over our heads. Not sure what startled them but they were a spectacular sight with the sun shining through their wings. The forest is a safe environment for these little creatures and they pose absolutely no danger to visitors. The Friends of Mary Cairncross Association aims to protect and enhance the natural environment of the Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve. To find out how to become involved check out www.friends-of-mary-cairncross. com.au or call 5435 0348. www.gcnews.com.au

Living - Arts Mamma Mia a potters inspiration Maleny artist Cathy Lawley who works in clay, creates earthy, whimsical works of art that have been collected for gardens and homes around the country. Whilst primarily self-taught, Cathy holds a Diploma in Ceramics and is an award-winning artist who has attended workshops with highly regarded potters and Raku Masters both in Australia and internationally. In 2014 Cathy fulfilled a personal dream – travelling to Tuscany, where she shared her passion for clay and raku pottery for 14 days with a group of very excited Australian participants. Now after such a successful tour, Cathy has been asked to take another tour in 2016, this time to The Greek Island of Skopelos, where the famous ‘Mamma Mia’ movie was filmed.

SEPTEMBER 23 2015

Diana from Artemis Tours has asked Cathy to teach in Skopelos. Diana lives in Kalymnos, she will also be our interpreter and tour guide, throughout the two weeks. At the same time, Cathy hopes that others will follow their dream and join her for this fabulous and fun pottery and sculpture experience. Skopelos Foundation for the Arts School is set in a beautiful mountain top over looking the deep blue Aegean Sea and stunning Mediterranean sunsets. This will be a totally unforgettable experience! With all the details looked after, all that participants have to do is settle in, relax and enjoy themselves in the workshop and their tour visits. Partners and non-participants are also welcome, with many attractions and opportunities exploring the nearby islands, shopping, swimming or hire a scoter. There’s so much or so little to do and to be discovered on the Island. “Although it’s not until next year, I think the timing gives people a great chance to plan and save for a fabulous holiday experience, and to think about where else they might like to visit after the workshop is over,” Cathy says. The Greek Island ‘Mamma Mia’ sculpture workshop program ensures plenty of time for workshop activities including throwing on the wheel, creating sculptures, glazing and firing; culminating in an exhibition of participants’ finished pieces in the nearby village.

All this activity will be balanced by visits to other stunning Greek Islands such as Skiathos and Alonnisos, galleries, museums, markets, and authentic Greek cuisine, also fun Greek dancing nights. During the month of October, Cathy will be displaying sculptures and information about the ‘Mamma Mia’ Greek Island tour in the front window of Peace of Green Gallery Maleny. You can also visit Cathy in her Maleny studio by attending a workshop. To book a place in the Greek Island tour, or for more information, contact Cathy on 0402 333 576. Or email cathy@friedmudd.com. Deposit will need to be paid in December to secure a place with full payment due mid 2016. Visit http://friedmudd.com/pottery-sculpture-tourgreek-islands/

Living - Arts Shine at Glasshouse Christian College Contributed by Sandy Johnson ‘Shine’ is Glasshouse Christian College’s annual event showcasing Dance, Drama, Music and Visual Arts with students from Prep to Year 12 involved in this gala occasion. Now in its third year, Shine 2015 was bigger and better than all the others preceding it. Stages were set up in the undercover area, the library, the hospitality courtyard and the college was decorated by illuminated sculptures, student artwork, fairy lights and lanterns. The program was full with simultaneous performances occurring on all three stages, each one with a completely different atmosphere. The large undercover area was used for the dance performances, band items and large singing

groups such as Little Voices and Sing & Shout. The library had an intimate feel with mood lighting and a small stage for individual and small group musical items. The stage in the hospitality courtyard was subtly lit and had the feel of an outdoor café and showcased modern music from some of the more senior students. The art gallery was set up in the library and this year’s student work was spectacular. Art students had also been busy converting plastic soft drink bottles to stunning chandeliers and turning sticky tape into beautifully illuminated angels. Shine is all about giving Glasshouse Christian College students an opportunity to demonstrate their amazing abilities and that is just what they did!

It’s amazing what the GCC Art students can do with some sticky Jasper Tait and Arno Mens proudly tape and Christmas lights show off their artwork

Expression / impression on show

The interweaving geometry of space, time and object permeate both Kevin Grealy’s and Jacky Lowry’s work. Kevin is strongly influenced by the 19th century Japanese woodblock printmakers Hiroshige and Hokusai, especially their portrayal of the effects of season and weather on mountains and skies. He portrays the endless variety of shapes, textures, colours and moods of the Glasshouse Mountains in response to the time of day, the position of the sun and shadows, the

Local winner

Recently local Landsborough artist and Master Pastellist Christopher Blake won first prize in the Pastel Society of Australia awards held at the RQAS Petrie Terrace gallery in Brisbane. Carol Rix from Woombye (pictured with Chris) won a secondary award in the Barbara Alexander awards. This was her first ever art entry! Sally Thomson from the local Sunshine Coast PSA group also won a prize in the scapes section. www.gcnews.com.au

season of year, changing weather, the length of focus and the aspect of view. Kevin’s work is strongly graphic while Jacky’s, although using bold graphic techniques, tends to calligraphic resolution, somewhat reminiscent of Escher. The repetition of subtly different yet intrinsically similar tones and shapes, provides a mesmerising but definitive rhythm to her works, many of which use leaves and plants as their origin. The completed pieces are strongly linear, and themes around paths, journeys, luminosity and spirituality frequently emerge; nevertheless the patterned and abstract collages still retain a resonance with the original forms and emotions of their source images. Jacky and Kevin’s exhibition ‘Expression / Impression’ will be on display at Vianta Arts, 70 Simpson Street, Beerwah, from September 27 to October 31, and opens at 6.00pm on Friday, October 2. Light refreshments will be served at the opening, and an a la carte menu will be available from 7.00pm. For table bookings call Vianta on 0412 312 399.

Range of artists on show

Art’s Connects held the first of their monthly ‘Open Studio’ weekends for 2015 in August and now another group of talented artists are getting ready to open their studios on the weekend of September 26 and 27 from 10.00am – 4.00pm each day. The artists that will be throwing open their doors to the public to show you inside the workings of their arts practices are Kaye Leach, Jacky Lowry, Barb Willcocks, Nita Clare Lester and Wendy Edmonds. Barb Willcocks is a watercolour artist and her studio is located at 176 Obi Obi Road, Mapleton. Kaye Leach is a ceramic artist who you can visit at 363 North Maleny Road, North Maleny. Printmaker Jacky Lowry is located at 941 Aherns Road, Conondale, along with Nita Clare Lester a Botanist, who has the Wilde Woode studio at 293 Willandra Place, Mapleton. The final open studio will be painter Wendy Edmonds at 27 Glen Eden Court, Flaxton.

Watercolour exhibition

Maleny resident Michele Retschlag, an award winning artist and teacher with many years’ experience in the watercolour medium, is opening her North Maleny studio for nine days to show approximately 40 paintings. Michele trained at the Brisbane College of Art, graduating with a four year Diploma, before working at the University of Queensland as an illustrator. She was introduced to the watercolour medium almost 30 years ago, and still retains her initial enthusiasm. “The unpredictability of working in watercolour is challenging, exciting and loads of fun,” she says. Michele established her own watercolour school in Brisbane, has tutored regularly for the Watercolour Society of Queensland, as well as many other art groups in Queensland and northern New South Wales, and has been invited to judge on many occasions. The studio exhibition runs from 10.00am to 4.00pm, October 31 through to November 8.

You Said It Refreshing approach

In a time when we are bombarded by doctored images and words in most publications, I was heartened to see the family photo on the reverse side of the recent pamphlet from the Member for Glass House Andrew Powell. How refreshing it was to see a family ‘selfie’ of happy children and parents. No staging, no specific message, just laughter and fun. It seems to sum up the essence of who our representative is and why we are lucky to have him. Jane Caraffi Montville

Glasshouse Country Debutante Ball

Congratulations to all involved with the 22nd Annual Anglican Deb Ball, in particular the debutantes and their partners, and their parents. As always it was a night to remember. A big ‘Thank you’ to all those who helped in any way, from those who taught them the dances, to those who did the washing up and the cleaning up after, and the many jobs in between. Also thank you to our MC Mike Turner, chaplain of Beerwah High, and those receiving the Debs. Next year the Ball will be held on September 3. Prospective Debutants should watch for notices of the information nights in the first quarter of the year. Anglican Deb Ball Committee

Lovely night out

It was my pleasure to be a guest at the Glass House State School Art Gala and Night Market last Friday, September 11. The warm welcoming for someone who is not part of the school community, the catering, and of course the beautiful art work, all contributed to make for a wonderful experience. I couldn’t help but be blown away by the sheer amount of work that would have gone into the organising of such an event and would like to give special mention to the art teacher Miss Pope, and Mrs Blake and the P&C.

What an achievement

Smart meter

The roll-out of so-called 'smart' meters across Australia in the last five years gets little publicity in most media. However if you lived in Victoria you would have heard all about them. There they are mandatory for consumers in VIC, but 1/10th of the population have rejected them. The promise is that they are 'green' and are a revolutionary method for you to save on power use. And they allow what's called TOU (time-of-use) rates which will, it’s promised, save you money. However time-based pricing has not (according to studies in the USA, Canada and Ireland) significantly changed overall power consumption. The smart grid industry has continued to spend billions of dollars to deploy smart meters despite the mounting evidence that they are of no value to consumers and actually introduce significant privacy, safety and security risks. Research at the Kellogg School of Management at North West University and the University of Chicago (USA) provides confirmation that smart meters are unlikely to benefit either the consumer or the environment. In QLD the government calls them 'advanced meters' and rolls them out based on 'public demand'. But if you have a new home or are renovating your systems you will automatically get a new smart meter. You may be seduced into having one based on 'green ' promises. Don't. The other major issue is that about one in every 10 households have members who react severely to the meters EM radiation. They are pulsed devices sending a signal to central data collection points and the pulse is over 100 times more powerful than a mobile phone. If located near a bedroom/main room many react to the power pulse with headaches and nausea. It’s called microwave illness. More on StopSmartMetersAustralia website.Keep your traditional meter and lock it up. Richard Giles Conondale

The McGrath Foundation would like to say a huge thank you to the Landsborough community for getting behind our community cricket initiative, Pink Stumps Day, and helping to raise more than $1.2 million to help support families experiencing breast cancer in Australia. The McGrath Foundation set community cricket teams a challenge to help smash our fundraising goal and we haven’t been disappointed. Thank you to the Landsborough Cricket Club for their fantastic efforts. They got their local community involved, turning their pitches pink and raised $500.00. To date, our extensive network of McGrath Breast Care Nurses have helped support over 36,000 families in Australia through their breast cancer experience, providing invaluable physical, psychological and emotional support from the time of diagnosis and throughout treatment. We know we wouldn’t be able to continue our important work without your community’s support, so thank you. Registrations for Pink Stumps Day 2016 are now open and can be made online at pinkstumpsday. com.au As we say at the McGrath Foundation, together we can make a difference!

For a long time now we have been reading and hearing about the sustainability of solar power and its advantages both to the environment and our hip pocket. Google ‘Sustainability of Solar Power’ and you will get about 8,870,000 results. You would want to make sure you are on solar power before you spend infinite hours of energy, not to mention your time to research the results! Solar energy is not only sustainable, it is renewable and this means that we will never run out of it. Solar panels are a silent producer of energy and during operation solar electricity power plants produce zero emissions. So we know how good solar power is, however for the home owner there is the cost of converting. Let’s face it, it’s not going to be cheap to convert to clean and renewable energy but the long term benefits are surely worth it.

I have just learnt that IGA Maleny has donated over one million dollars back into the community. Surely this is a noteworthy happening, such a wonderful effort, from the community to the community? Hopefully, all the recipients will make a special thank you to Rob and Samantha for their efforts. Isn’t it amazing what one cent in the dollar, over time, can achieve? Congratulations to Rob and Samantha. Now, if only BI-RITE could be saved, that would really be a community effort. P. Owens Landsborough

You important wedding everyone sees it are the most

World of wedding cakes By Sonia Clark What’s a wedding without an impressive cake? GC&M News went behind the scenes and spoke to local cake maker, Jo Jones to find out more about what goes into preparing a wedding cake. An important part of making a wedding cake is sitting down with the clients to discuss their requirements. These days the bride and groom are both usually part of the consultation process, and they often bring pictures of ideas that they like. The consultation will discuss design options, the number of guests expected, whether the cake will be eaten at the wedding or taken home, as well as themes and colour schemes. Often, the cake will reflect the personalities of the bride and groom as well as tying in with the overall colours and theme of the wedding. A variety of themes have been popular; with classic wedding cakes featuring simple ribbon/edible lacework and flowers among the most favoured. Textured cakes are proving popular as butter cream is coming back into fashion, as well as a mix of classic and textured layers. Jo has also found that a recent trend has been for ‘rustic themed’ cakes; where the cake is layered with icing and the cake underneath is still visible. Chocolate mudcake is currently the most popular flavour choice followed by ‘red velvet’, (a slight raspberry/ chocolate tasting blend) white chocolate mud cake is also a firm favourite. Often clients with tiered cakes will mix the flavours for each tier. Jo suggests a three month lead time for delivery of wedding cakes. This allows time to source handmade or personalised toppers and to create, set and dry sugar craft items, as well as allowing time to book in the actual making of the cake. Some cakes can take days to create and remember during wedding season cake bookings fill up fast.

By Lea Parkes Recently I attended a really smart, thoroughly modern Wedding Shower, that had all the special traditional elements and the bridesmaid organising the event showed just how smart she is, by having Club Glass House host the event. The bride at the centre of the celebration was our lovely receptionist Sarah, and while she lives locally, her bridesmaids are based in Toowoomba and the Gold Coast so it wasn’t really practical for them to host an Margaret Moffat with Sarah Taylor-F ox event at their homes. (soon to be Moffat) So Sharon Bochow and her team at Club Glasshouse came to the rescue, setting up their function room to comfortably accommodate quite a lot of ladies who had come together for the special occasion. The bridesmaids had done a great job of decorating the room. It looked gorgeous and featured all the things that the bride loves, a backdrop that doubled as a photo booth, photos featuring the bride and groom to be’s romance, and lots and lots of pink. With Club Glass House’s new separate food servery area, it worked really well as the food is all out on display, including hot box items which meant that guests could wander back and forth picking and choosing what they would like to eat. It was a lovely afternoon, and with the personalised assistance that the club provides, it also meant that the event could come in on budget, and none of the guests had to clean up at the end of the afternoon!

Tips for a healthier home

Contributed by Landsborough Health and Wellness Centre Feng Shui offers fresh insights on how to improve your environment without the cost of purchasing expensive ornaments from the store. Simple changes can be made that create the effects you desire. Some common and easy changes that you can make are: • Placing a mirror in the dinning room can double the food and indicate plenty for the family. • Often called the ‘Chinese Money Tree’, the Jade plant is regarded as auspicious in attracting abundance. Place outside the front door and also outside the back door. Looks great as well! • The turtle can be placed at the back door to protect the home from anything negative. It also provides luck and success for the home owner. • If, when opening the front door, you can see through to your back door, you will need to redirect the flow from going straight out the back door. If you can place an object in its pathway (eg, a plant or statue) it will redirect the ‘chi’ flow positively. • Place the ‘Fortune Frog’ inside your home facing inwards to bring prosperity energy into your life. 28

Things To Do Outspoken presents, Magda Szubanski One of Australia’s most beloved performers, Magda Szubanski will be in conversation with Steven Lang at the Maleny Community Centre on Thursday, October 15 from 6.00pm for 6.30pm start. Magda is most famous for her role in Kath and Kim as Sharon Strzelecki, but also for her work in the comedy sketch programs Fast Forward, the D-Generation, and, of course, as Esme Hoggett in the film Babe. In this new and extraordinary memoir 'Reckoning' Magda describes her journey of self-discovery from a suburban childhood haunted by the demons of her father’s espionage activities and the secret awareness of her sexuality, to the complex dramas of adulthood and her need to find out the truth about herself and her family. With courage and compassion she addresses her own frailties and fears, and asks the big questions about life, about the shadows we inherit and the gifts we pass on. Also on the evening program is Paul Williams, Program Coordinator in Creative Writing at Sunshine Coast University and the author of several short stories and novels. His most recent book is 'Cokcraco', an exhilarating, playful and witty novel about writing, identity and literary KritiKs. Tickets are available from Maleny Bookshop by phoning 5494 3666. Cost is $18.00 and $12.00 for students. To find out more, check out the outspoken website at www.outspokenmaleny.com

Flute ‘Star’ to shine in Maleny According to the London Daily Mail, Australian flautist Jane Rutter is ‘a star of the flute’ and Maleny Arts Council (MAC) has invited her to the hinterland for a return concert in the Maleny Community Centre on October 18 from 2.00pm - 4.00pm. President of MAC, Jennifer Radbourne, said Jane particularly wished to come back to Maleny because she loved the audience, the atmosphere and meeting the patrons at 'Drinks on the Deck' after the performance. “Drinks on the Deck upstairs at the Community Centre following our afternoon shows have become a tradition, and we invite our audience again to meet Jane Rutter and join us for refreshments after ‘Flute Spirits’ her new, unique and intimate concert,” said Professor Radbourne. The concert on October 18 will include Jean-Jacques Rousseau’s solo flute version of the ‘Spring’ from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons as well as Indian Ragas and contemporary incantations played on a variety of flutes, gold, silver, wooden, bamboo and ebony, and the Irish whistle. At her last Maleny concert, the Community Centre was booked out two weeks before the performance, so music lovers are urged to book early to ensure a place. Tickets are $25.00 or $22.00 for Maleny Arts Council members, and bookings are open at the Maleny Information Centre or online at Trybooking.com. For further information, or to join MAC please ring John Marsden on 5499 9033.

In the Garden Get Up & Grow with Jade King Spring has arrived in Green Valley with a burst of flowers, hatching chickens everywhere, newborn lambs and squealing piglets! Luckily all of this beauty is not diminished by the corresponding arrival of pests and disease. The hardest part is to deal with these outbreaks organically, but there are both homemade and commercial organic options available. Here are just a few.

Organic Pesticides

Homemade White Oil – aphids, mites and whitefly. Directions: 1 cup of ordinary cooking oil mixed with 1/4 cup of dishwashing liquid. Dilute one tablespoon per litre of water. This solution effectively suffocates the pests and is simple and effective. Commercial Organic Pesticides - Dipel (caterpillars), Ecofend (mites and aphids), Eco-Oil (mites, scale and aphids).

Organic Herbicides

Vinegar – weeds Directions: 1 cup of salt to 1 litre of vinegar mixed until dissolved. This must be brushed directly onto weed leaves as it is not a selective weed killer and will kill anything it touches. Also it is not to be poured onto soil as this can make the soil inhospitable for plants and soil organisms. Commercial Organic Herbicides: Weed Blitz, Bioweed.

Organic Fungicides

Milk Spray – powdery mildew Directions: Mix 100ml milk with one litre of water. Spray regularly on both sides of leaves.

Apple blossoms attract butterflies to the garden There is substantial anecdotal evidence that milk treatments can be effective in the protection of some plants from powdery mildew and other viruses. It should be noted that there is some debate regarding the type of milk used, with gardeners advocating that it must be organic milk as it contains antibiotic qualities. Bi-carb and Condy’s Crystals – aphids, slugs and mildew. Directions: One teaspoon of bicarb-soda into one litre of water. Add one litre of milk and a teaspoon of Condy’s Crystals (Potassium permanganate). Scientific studies indicate that the key ingredient, potassium permanganate is effective in reducing fungal infections, yet its efficacy is compromised by environmental conditions such as rain etc. The bicarbonate soda is known to alter the pH of the leaf environment preventing fungal spores from germinating; however it does not actually kill the fungus. As noted, these are preventative measures and often will not cure the problem. Commercial Organic Fungicides: Eco-Fungicide or Ecocarb.

Jade likes her family to be able to live as self sufficiently as possible from her garden and she loves to share her knowledge with others.

3 reasons why it might be a good time to buy 1. THE LOW CASH RATE The RBA cash rate has been held at its record low of 2 per cent for the fourth consecutive month. A low interest rate is good for borrowers as it allows them to pay less to finance their loans, making it cheaper. 2. HIGHER BUILDING APPROVALS Between June and July 2015, the number of building approvals increased 4.2% in seasonally adjusted terms, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

“The rise in dwelling units approved will add further to strength to the pipeline of work yet to be done by residential builders with 223,000 dwellings approved in the 12 months to July,” said Peter Jones, chief economist Master Builders Australia.

3. INVESTOR CREDIT PROPORTION IS DROPPING

An increase in the number of homes available for purchase reduces the pressure exerted by large demand. This means that prices will hopefully increase less as time goes on, making them more affordable.

However, this does look promising, as APRA placed stricter regulations on property investment loans earlier this year. This was done to give people looking to live in their own homes more of a chance of being able to buy the property.

This is the lowest level it has been since March 2015, but it is only just at the beginning of showing a decline, so experts are warning not to conclude anything just yet.

Father Harry Ruess - Anglican Church Maleny

At the heart of the Christian Gospel is the notion of sacrificial service which has sprung into our world following the example of Jesus Christ. His whole words and actions have inspired folk of good will in every corner of the world. In our own nation there are large organisations like Angelcare, Bluecare, Ozcare, The Salvation Army and St John Ambulance who are inspired in one way or another by Christian Values. There are also a host of other not-for-profit organisations, which like those with a Christian ethos, serve our community day and night, especially the less fortunate. Organisations like Rotary, Lions, APEX known as ‘Service Clubs’ are household names which contribute so much to society. The gospel writes, Matthew, Mark and Luke agree that Jesus said St Mark 10: 41-45 ‘Whoever would be great among you must be your servant, whoever would be first among you must be slave to all. For the son of man (Jesus) also came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.’ See also St Matthew 20:26-28, St Luke 22:26-27. Last Wednesday, September 9, Queen Elizabeth ll became the longest reigning monarch of England, out throning her great great grandmother Queen Victoria. Queen Elizabeth’s life has been one of service to god, country and commonwealth. It was

heart-warming to see and hear in the media of her many acts of service during her lifetime, especially working with her mother during World War 2. I recall the words of the late president J.F Kennedy at his inaugural address in 1961. ‘Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country’. Worshippers in mainline churches will recall that over the past few weeks the Apostle reading has been from St James who emphasised the necessity of good works to demonstrate ones faith. St James 2:17 ‘So faith by itself, if it has no words, is dead.’ Have a read of St James, it only has five chapters. Finally, could I suggest a well known prayer to reinforce the return of sacrificial service to our human brother and sisters, in the words of St Ignatius of Loyola 1491 – 1556. ‘Teach us good lord to serve as you deserve, to give and not to count the cost, to fight and not to heed the words, to act and not to seek for rest, to labour and not to ask for any reward. Save that of knowing that we your will.’ After a long hard day or week in whatever service you do, could I suggest you sit down with a cup of tea or coffee or some other beverage, turn on the TV and catch a rerun of ‘Are you being served!’

Sport Glasshouse Country Bowls Club

Glasshouse Country Bowls Club

Congratulations

Business Bowls Competition The first round of the 2015 Spring Series commenced on Wednesday night, September 16. The competition runs for eight weeks and is held at night at Club Glass House. It consists of 16 teams of three members. The team members come from local businesses and have a great evening of fun playing lawn bowls. They are mostly not bowls club players, but just out to play in a fun atmosphere. The evening commences with a sausage sizzle, followed by a game of bowls at the end of which prize money is awarded, followed by more socialising in the Club House. This Business Bowls Competition has been running for a number of years now. It consists of two series a year of eight weeks duration. One in Spring and one in Summer. Vying for a team in the competition is hotly contested, as it is proving more popular with local businesses every year. The results of Round One were ‘The Old Farts’ (Gary Gray, Adam Berrell and Josh Waterworth) with 91 points. Denis Bochow, a former member, may find it hard to get back into the team? Runners up were the ‘Beerwah Trophies’ (Michelle McCoombe, Jill Kircheiner and John Annakin).

Amy Trevan of Glasshouse Christian College who is going to compete in U10 High Jump.

Laura Vobr of Beerwah who will compete in Townsville for Discus and Shot put.

It Costs No More To Hire A Proven Professional

I have the authority A DPI Officer stopped at a farm in Kilcoy and talked to an old farmer. He told the farmer, “I need to inspect your farm for illegally grown drugs.” The farmer said, “okay, but don’t go into that field over there…”, as he pointed out the location. The DPI Officer verbally exploded and said, “look mister, I have the authority of the state government with me!” Reaching into his rear back pocket, the arrogant officer removed his badge and proudly displayed it to the farmer. “See this badge?! This badge means I can go wherever I want. On any land! No questions asked, no answers given!

Do you understand old man?!” The farmer kindly nodded, apologised, and went about his chores. Moments later the farmer heard loud screams, he looked up and saw the DPI agent running for his life, being chased by the farmers big Santa Gertrudis Bull. With every step the bull was gaining ground on the officer, and it was likely that he’d sure enough get gored before he reached safety. The officer was clearly terrified. The old farmer threw down his tools, ran as fast as he could to the fence, and yelled at the top of his lungs “your badge! Show him your badge!” Submitted by Ty, Glass House

Get your solar return chart done, if possible, as all indications this weekend triggers how your needs are to be met. SCORPIO October 23– November 22 The situation that arose at the beginning of this month could come up for review under this Mercury retrograde period.

CAPRICORN December 23–January 19 Respect the rules of good protocol in professional business or parental relationships.

AQUARIUS January 20– February 19 With the Sun sign entering Libra this month it opens up a world of travel, expansion and enlightenment about future activities and contracts from afar. Someone returns under this Mercury retrograde period as Mars enters Virgo now, activating money issues. PISCES February 20– March 20 There are questions you are forced to answer which are invasive. You may feel pushed into a corner, or on the defensive. What you need to do is not to justify yourself to others but to enquire what you need to learn from them. This week offers rewards. ARIES March 21– April 20 In the midst of a series of eclipses taking place during this month, you should be ready for new and exciting ways to experience love and pleasure. As the Sun sign shifts to Libra for their birthday month, that sign being opposite, is good for partnership or deals. TAURUS April 21– May 21 Recently you may have found yourself in a gad-about mood! Hopefully your wanderings were most enjoyable and now may produce wonderful results. Following your gut feelings can lead you to be in the right place at the right time. Family and finances are solid.

GEMINI May 22– June 21 Be open to a new friend or partner as a sudden encounter knocks on your door. With the birthday sign of Libra starting this week, that air sign, similar to your own, opens up a doorway to a more creative self-expressive universe. Mars inspires improvements at home. CANCER June 22– July 22 This is a good week for a meeting or lunch with a colleague or client. It will prove interesting, and may bring fresh possibilities. By being pro-active and doing investigative work you will head off problems. A full Moon weekend sees you decide your true value! LEOJuly 23 –August 22 The Libran birthday month starts this week and for you it opens the door to increased communications and more neighbourhood activity. With Mars entering Virgo, together with Jupiter, psychic energy comes to you to prepare money making opportunities. VIRGO August 23 – September 22 With Jupiter and Mars in your sign you can now spend on durable, functional and beautiful items. You are also determined to find answers, but you don’t need to read between the lines. Don’t detect bad intentions where none exists and lose perspective.
