OT CHOCOLATE. Cosy firesides. Boots and scarves.

What are you happy about this July?

Personally, I am thrilled that the election is over and my press releases have halved! So many emails, it will be a relief to get my inbox and the country back into line.

With bedrooms brimming, I have been one happy lady. We've been balancing this edition with "L" drivers, shotput coaching and demands to go fishing. At least the dog has been content, her walking has tripled these holidays.

Heatley and I would like to welcome new talents to our brilliant HT team (and page 2) - designers Paula Phillips, Leanne Collett and journalist Jess McKenzie.

Our designers have been creating ads and Paula is responsible for our beautiful front pages and revamped logo you may have seen these past few months.

Leanne has been impressing the team with her Hinterland Style designs (collaborating with Karen Muir) and Gallery Trail.

Katie Buckley and Serena Dixon from FYRE Photography have delivered their babies - and Suzy Barry has secured a job as an editor.

Congratulations! We wish you all well.

I'd like to send a huge "shout out" to the Maleny Singers. We heard that many HTs, with their front page showing well-known Barbie Norman, were featured in their Trial by Jury performance. What a laugh - thank you!

Maleny to host state Cross Country championships

HE FRIENDS OF Maroochy Regional Bushland Botanic Gardens are working with Native Plants Sunshine Coast to help local gardeners improve their home landscaping using plants that are native to our region.

A

USTRALIAN RUNNING legend, Benita Willis, has given the go ahead for the Queensland Athletics State Cross Country Championships to be held at Maleny on July 30.

The course was presented to the Queensland Athletics Championship Manager, Greg Ison, and Manager, Recreational Running Services and Programs, Benita Willis, who is a four times Olympian and World Cross Country Champion.

Benita is one of Australia’s best ever distance athletes.

She won the World Cross Country in 2004, the only Australian to have achieved that feat, and holds ten unbroken Australian records on road and track.

Benita said, “The course is awesome. I love all the hills and the uneven surfaces, so it seems to be more of a cross country course than a lot of the courses which I've run on here in Australia.

“I like the finish here because it's up hill with a flat section at the end in front of lots of people which creates a fantastic atmosphere.

“It's also great for the spectators because they can see the whole course from one spot, whereas at a lot of cross country courses that I've seen you have to run from point to point.

“Everything's also very central here with the food, the coffee van and the sports shop, so it's a really good setup.”

Maroochy Athletics - co-coordinators, Maleny Golf Club,

They will launch their campaign at their ‘Natives Naturally’ event, August 6 and 7 at the Arts and Ecology Centre at the Botanic Gardens, Palm Creek Road, Tanawha.

The event will offer home gardeners expert free advice on native plants that can be used to bring new looks to local landscaping, and offer the right plants at the right price to help them get started.

There will be free family entertainment, information displays, guided walks and refreshments as well as expert demonstrations and speakers.

Spencer and Karen Shaw of Forest Heart Nursery will talk about gardening for wildlife and bush foods on the Saturday.

On Sunday, Chris Fuller will talk about native bees and Joan Dillon about caring for native plants.

The Botanic Gardens features species that grow naturally in the Sunshine Coast region, and many locals will be pleasantly surprised to see them in established settings.

This event will help them appreciate the new potential for helping conserve our natural biodiversity, while creating a more valuable and interesting new look for their own gardens.

For information, email friendsofMRBBG@gmail.com or phone 0407 286 433.

Sport Recreation, Maleny Little Athletics and the Maleny community have given their 100% support to this event.

300 are expected to participate, and athletes and families will travel far and wide to showcase the Maleny community.

"I think it's really valuable for the community to move state title races around and I think it will be great to have it in Maleny.”

Mapleton has many residents who have arrived from the far-flung corners of Australia, and plenty from around the world. However, there are a few stalwarts, born and bred here, who have watched the landscape change. Farmer from "way back" and father of 11, Edward (Ted) McCosker, shares his view on Hinterland life with Victoria McGuin.

HINTERLAND TIMES – JULY 2016

T

HE WINTER CHILL is upon us as I sat with Ted in his kitchen near the wood-burning stove. Even the dogs kept trying to sidle into the farmhouse to escape the wind. And Jo (Ted’s wife) was optimistically hanging the washing out, in case it eventually dried.

Ted’s parents built and owned a ‘slab and fibro’ house here in 1933 and the surrounding 487 acres on Delicia Road, and named it ‘Braehead,’ after an area in Scotland where Ted’s mother’s family came from.

Ted was brought up here from his birth in 1935 until World War II. “There was no road before 1947, only a bridle track. It was hard with four kids, all the young at war, with no labour. We had kerosene pressure lights and no fridge.

Ted “Due to labour shortages, my father went to work in Beerwah and we left the farm for a while. I had been at Correspondence School – distance learning - before that, but was put up to grade three in school as there were not enough teachers for a grade two class.”

When schooling finished, Ted spent three years ‘working in pineapples’, then back at the Mapleton farm dairying and banana growing.

“We were cream farmers, as we didn’t have the refrigeration facilities to do milk. Then the dairying collapsed due to the withdrawal of the subsidy.”

Bananas fared worse. “There was a black frost in 1961.”

I didn’t know what a black frost was, so Ted explained. “It’s when the temperature goes below freezing quickly but the air doesn’t form a frost.” The vegetation freezes internally and dies.

All the bananas went black. “In ’63 we’d built them all up again, and then one morning we woke up freezing… black frost again. I said ‘no more bananas’ after that.”

While the farm was a struggle at times, Ted had other areas in life that were rewarding and positive.

“I became heavily involved in the Junior Farmers Organisation, which then became Rural Youth. It gave young men and women experience in leadership skills and meeting procedures.

“Then in 1961 I met my first wife, Rowena Templeton, at a Nambour Dance. She was a school teacher. We were engaged in ’62 and married in Nambour Presbyterian Church in ’63.”

Ted and Rowena had eight children, four boys and four girls. “Now they’re all over the place, doing their thing,” he

smiled. “They all had brains – when they used them! They all did good.”

When cream farming died Ted and the family went into beef cattle and passionfruit.

All was going well, but in 1973, both the cattle and passionfruit farming collapsed.

“Cattle went down from $300 one week to $40-$50 the next. And the passion fruit was bought cheaper overseas, so it wiped our contracts. I was left in dire straits.”

Ted took work experience in the Western Downs near Glenmorgan. “I was supposed to be there for six months, but stayed for ten years! As I could pregnancy test, one day I pregnancy tested 650 cows.”

While he was there, Ted became very involved in the education programme at Glenmorgan School, spending two years as P&C Vice President and two years as President.

Upon his return to the farm (where his parents were holding the fort) he took a seasonal job at the sugar mill and had a few cattle.

Farming on the Blackall Range is a bone of contention for Ted now. “I think 50% of the Blackall Range country should never have been opened up for farming. It’s either too steep, too rocky or has poor soil.”

A passionate believer in ‘sensible conservation’ he shared, “Our place was the first and biggest nature refuge in Queensland. The Land for Wildlife launch was here on our land.”

In 1987 Ted’s mother passed away, and in 1990 Rowena tragically died of asthma, leaving Ted and his father with eight children and a farm to manage.

Eventually Ted hired help, in the form of Joanna den Dekker as a housekeeper. “We hit it off,” he told me, “Got married in 1994, and now we have three girls.”

It became clear through our conversation that Ted is a huge advocate for education. “Both sets of my grandparents were involved in setting up and pushing for provisional schools,” he shared.

“One for Glasshouse, one at Commissioners Flat. And they would raise money to help at functions.”

Ted believes that if you teach your kids how to read and write and count, the rest will fall in to place.

“I was isolated here when I was young. I wasn’t four-yearsold when my mum taught me how to read. She read books to me.

“When war was declared, my father brought the paper home three days later and I remember I picked it up and slowly phonetically reading ‘War dec-clar-ed’.

War has had a strong impact on Ted too, in particular with

the RSL. He did his three months National Service in 1955, then as a reservist.

“When I was young I had this idea that the RSL was old men getting drunk and talking about war memories,” he said.

“Then once I got involved I realised how much more goes on.

“In 1983 the Mapleton RSL were still fighting to get benefits for ex-diggers from World War II.” Ted likes to help any way he can. “We have an RSL picnic at Lilyponds Park for the Vets from Caboolture.”

Ted’s volunteering doesn’t stop there. He is involved in the Mapleton Men’s Shed, and dressed up as Santa “for a long time!” for the RSL, Mapleton Playgroup and Pre-School, and Candlelight Christmas in Maleny.

“Once you become involved, you realise how much is needed,” he said simply.

Community kindness, ‘sensible conservation’ and a champion for education – Ted’s achievements are an asset to the Range.

Potty about

POTTERY Arriving at the home of Montville Citizen of the Year, Pam Maegdefrau, and her partner, Jim Cox, is a visual feast for the eyes. The rainforest seems to hug their home, and the eclectic art, both in style and mediums, welcomes you as soon as you step through the front door. Victoria McGuin went to talk art, community and flying pigs.

by Victoria McGuin

Noosa

Geraldton Montville

AM MAEGDEFRAU is a successful potter who has lived on the range for the last 14 years, but admits she had always been a “city girl”.

This is backed up by the flying pig motifs adorning the property. “Jim and I met in Brisbane and he said if I ever left the city ‘pigs might fly’ – but I did. The pigs are our little reminder of that miracle!

“I still think ‘oh, it’s so exciting here’ when I go back in, but then I think, ‘oh, it’s so exhausting’ and always feel glad to come home,” Pam smiles.

As we talk, we wander through the house, where I enjoy framed cartoons from the early 1900s, Pam’s 1970s renditions of rubbings from seven-hundred-year-old Medieval Brasses, and a modern mountainous clay sculpture of writhing, scrabbling figures.

Pam herself is a master of raku and black-firing techniques, with minimalist shapes and gorgeous colours - but art and Pam didn’t actually become a partnership until the 1980s.

“I studied biology and medical technology,” she tells me. “I was a scientist for about 12 years. Then I suddenly realised, as much as I loved it, I needed to go and explore other things.”

She ventured overseas in January 1970 and fleetingly met her future husband in Singapore. He was an “optimistic adventurer” who then tracked her down in India and they spent the next two years exploring Europe together, and

“While we were in Amsterdam he saw an advert for the Bahamas. He came home and said, ‘Pack your bags, there’s a train at one o’clock for Lichenstein, we’re going to catch a plane to the Bahamas,’ and we did!”

Unfortunately it proved impossible to find work, so they headed to Florida for five years before returning to Sydney and driving up to Queensland in an old Combi van.

“We bought five acres at Ormen, built a house and pretended we knew what to do with cows,” Pam says, raising her eyebrows.

“By this time I was determined I’d become a potter, so I went to Kelvin Grove College and studied for four years, where I had a studio.”

Pam and her husband had parted ways by then, and she spent the mid-1980s until 2002 living and breathing art in Brisbane. “It was an exciting time and I couldn’t muck about as there was a lot of competition,” Pam shares.

“I exhibited and entered everything I possibly could, and finally people learnt how to spell my name!”

Pam began teaching part time in the Ceramics department at South Bank TAFE, became President of the Craft Council and was asked to join a steering committee at Gateway TAFE. It was around this time that she met artist and head of the Art Department, Jim Cox, who in a timely fashion brings us tea and biscuits.

“It started as a friendship and grew from there,” says Pam. “He has a lovely sense of humour and we share silly attitudes about life.”

Jim is a prolific artist, with vibrant, colourful paintings, superb life drawings, sculptural work from recycled materials, and book illustrations, including The Book of Krumple, which he also wrote.

“Jim is part of a life drawing group who meet every Friday – he believes it ‘keeps your pencils sharp’ when you draw every week.”

Pam herself never really stops either. Within a year of moving to Montville, in 2002, she became secretary of the Montville Village Association, and a founding member of Community Arts, where she met other painters, potters and drawers.

“We set up a group and had an old packing shed to work in. Eventually, I thought maybe we could create a bigger art group involving more of the Hinterland and we called it Arts Connect.

“We started with Artists on the Green in 2007, which worked fairly well for a while, once a month. Then we had a terribly wet year and couldn’t display as frequently and eventually the venture faded.”

However, opportunity smiled and Pam’s group was asked to create sculptures with the Maleny Garden Club. One garden was Lucas Parklands, which is roughly 30 acres of rainforest. “I took the mob there and everyone became very excited, and so Sculpture on the Edge was born.”

From there came Spicers Clovelly’s Jude Turner, who was keen to have permanent sculptures in the gardens. We trialled this, and the second year we moved to Spicers Tamarind and mentioned prizes, which grew into the now

well-known ‘Spicers Sculpture Award’.

Next came inspiration from a member who had seen open studios at Scenic Rim. “So we started doing this once a year, and now it has evolved in to the Arts Trail and the Open Studios program.”

These are impressive artistic contributions to the Blackall Range, but just as important to Pam is people actively supporting and protecting the character and community of Montville, something she continually fights for.

“We need to provide engaging things up here for the younger generations too – village life is so much more interesting with young people involved!”

I can clearly see why Pam was named Montville Citizen of the Year, but the lady herself is bemused. “I never thought I’d achieve such an honour, as I’m a bit of a stirrer,” she grins.

Syd Kirkby MBE, has explored more of Antarctica than any other Australian, and he lives right here in Flaxton. Victoria McGuin said his stories were eloquent, fascinating and amusing, and she could have written twice as much!

YD’S ACHIEVEMENTS are hugely impressive and I was curious as to how this all began. “Well, it’s partly my nature,” Syd explains. “My father was a roamer and restless, and this came through to me too. And it’s partly because of my wonderful Uncle Frank, who was an explorer.

“When I was about four my mother, like all mothers, was grossly unjust,” he chuckles. “So I ran away. I took my toy yacht to the river to sail it with string and it came undone and sailed away.

“On the river bank were some old-fashioned boat builders and I asked for their help. In those days, you could do that, it was a lovely simple time.

“They retrieved my boat and we sat drinking beer and eating sandwiches and yarning, man-to-man.”

He eventually wandered home, to find his Uncle Frank holding the fort, while everyone else was out searching for him. “We sat together on the well cover and he told me stories of exploration.”

Sadly, life was about to deal this free-spirited boy a huge blow. Aged five, Syd contracted Polio and was extremely limited in his movements from the waist down.

“My mother, Frances, wanted to love and cuddle me, and hated seeing me in pain, but my father, who was a physicist, left his job and committed himself to my rehabilitation,” Syd says. “What that must have cost him….”

At the time Australian nurse Sister Elizabeth Kenny was going against medical opinion, claiming that as soon as Polio victims could stand you had to ‘make them work’, exercise and keep the muscles active.

“Father believed in her methods, but he was flying in the face of medical and family opinion, which must’ve caused dreadful confliction.”

Sydney Senior began a regime to help his son. “Dad would carry me to the beach, put me on the sand, take the callipers off and rush into the water, calling out for me to join him. I would drag myself with my arms to reach him, and swim and play.”

By the time Syd Junior was 14 years old, he was swimming, sailing, prospecting, trekking and boxing.

“Dad would come to all my fights, and even if I won he would suggest ways I could be better. I began to feel frustrated and wondered, briefly, if he was a little ashamed of me…

“Then I won my weight division in a boxing tournament. I looked across and his head was on the apron of the ring. He was in paroxysms of tears. It hit me then - this is all for me.”

On leaving school, Syd gained a cadetship in surveying, indentured to Mr Fyfe, the then Surveyor General of Western Australia. For five years he worked with excellent mentors and did very well in geodesy and astronomy. Far less well in subjects he did not enjoy.

This paid off, as in 1954, when he was only 20, the

Commonwealth and Western Australia Government put an expedition together to venture to the Great Sandy Desert and he joined the team.

“It was almost exploring, and I loved it. The aboriginals knew of white people but hadn’t seen them. We met them with mutual cordiality and warmest regard. And it was fun, just wonderful fun!”

Two months into the trip Syd received a telegram by radio saying his father had terminal cancer and he should go home.

“The very next day a telegram arrived from Dad. It said, ‘Son, have you ever known me to die to someone else’s timetable? Take as long as you need. I’ll hang on. Dad’.

“I knew he’d do it, so I finished the job.”

A year later the opportunity arose to go to Antarctica. “I wanted to be home for Dad but he said, ‘You go son, I’ll hang on. It’s only another year and a half.’ So I tossed my hat in the ring.

“There were flies in the ointment though…The minimum age was 28, I was 21. And they needed a graduate surveyor with a minimum of five years’ experience, I’d yet to sit my final exams.

“Phil Law, the director of the expedition, interviewed me.

He looked at me and said, ‘You’re a remarkably young looking 28’. I replied, ‘What you’re actually looking at is a remarkably mature 21-year-old’,” Syd laughs.

“However, I’d done my research and knew he was a boxer, so we sat and talked about it for three hours, and he took me on.”

And so began a career of exploring. “85% of a continent twice the size of Australia had never been seen. Any place I would stand, no other human being had stood. It was awe inspiring.”

RUBY SET JEWELLER JEWELLERYY RANGE for the Month of JULY JULY Amongst other achievements, Syd was part of the first team to explore the Prince Charles Mountains with a team of dogs.

“Every village square in Australia should have a monument to those dogs. It was a hideous and cruel existence,” his eyes fill with tears, “but it worked.”

I hear stories of these magnificent, athletic animals; in particular Streaky, who was so exhausted by the end of his last expedition that the team towed him in the sledge box.

“But we still put a harness on him, so he felt important.”

We talk for nearly three hours, and I wish I could share everything. From his childhood, to his ‘utter dasher’ of a brother, Karl, who succumbed to cancer at only 22, to his mother and father’s love story, and indeed his own with his beautiful wife, Jude.

As for Sydney Senior, he kept his word and stayed alive until a few months after Syd returned from his first icy expedition.

After working on The Times crossword together in hospital and noticing an error in a clue, the pair penned a letter to The Times. “We finished, he put the pen down and died.

“He made me and gave me a life.”

You can read about Syd’s explorations in Dr Lynette Finch’s biography, Fixing Antarctica – Mapping the Frozen South, available at Rosetta Books, Maleny and Mapleton Hardware and Garden Centre.

t i k c a h n a c n Hayde Music comes to the mountains with an infectious grin at its helm. Hayden Hack, the frontman of Hayden Hack Infusion, is ready to entertain crowds with his six-piece band, now renamed HighLife.

Tani du Toit went to talk life, love and music with this uplifting musician.

This uplifting musician talks on life, love and music....

By Tani du Toit

H

AYDEN HACK GIGGLES. And with it, he throws back his head, shuts his eyes and clutches his stomach, allowing the hilarity of the situation to erupt into an infectious belly laugh.

It’s a New Year’s Eve celebration on the foreshore of Mooloolaba and Hayden has joined two fellow musicians in an African ensemble to entertain the crowd.

The talented musician is having a ball, clearly as comfortable playing drums on the street as he is as front man of a highly-accomplished eight-piece band.

Fast forward a year later to February 2016 and Hayden crosses the busy main street of Maleny.

It’s been a scorching summer on the Sunshine Coast but on the mountain range autumn is in the air.

He wanders over with his trademark open smile and bright eyes, his shoulder-length curly hair touching a jade necklace his mother-in-law gifted him.

“Howzit,” he said in a strong Capetonian accent, keeping eye contact while he sips from his takeaway coffee. The 33year-old is an enigmatic sort but shares freely and with glee when asked what he’s been up to.

“I just released my latest solo called “My Lady”,” Hayden said, referring to the song he dedicated to his wife of nine years, photographer Ketakii Jewson-Brown. “She’s such a special human being,” he beamed. “She just fills the world with light and love.”

HINTERLAND TIMES – JULY 2016

Cracker: Hayden Hack doing what he loves best, laughing out loud and making music. Here he is performing on the dun dun as part of a New Year’s celebration at Mooloolaba

Hayden plays all the instruments in “My Lady”, which was highly commended at the 2016 QMusic Awards World category. It’s a touching rendition accompanied by guitar, kalimba, ukulele, various seed shakers and the doef conga drum.

“I compiled footage she took into a video without her knowing… because I love the way she views the world in her art and mine combined, as we are.”

This intimate offering adds to the outstanding repertoire Hayden has created in a span of ten years. Primarily as lead singer and guitar player of The Hayden Hack Infusion (now HighLife), Hayden’s strength lies not only in his magnificent voice, but in the multifaceted social commentary that underpins his work.

“When I write lyrics, I attempt to open listeners’ minds to new ideas or thoughts that are unfamiliar, self help and reflection,” Hayden shared.

“I like to find ways to try and bring us all together again to try and live in some kind of harmony – we don’t need to kill each other to get the message across, you know…

“Being South African makes me view the world in a different way, having had many interactions with all sorts of cats,” he said.

“From the extremely rich to hanging out with the guys in shanty town shabeens (shanty town bars) and sometimes in their shacks that could only fit three people … that’s the real reality. Not many ‘whities’ see that side of it all.”

The son of musician parents, Hayden’s life quite literally almost started on stage. His mother is a jazz singer and went into labour during a performance before his birth in 1983. His father is a guitar and bass player who also teaches guitar.

“Both my parents have given me little tips along the way and I have learned a lot from musicians I’ve played with,” he said.

Music lovers and particularly followers of Afrofunk and fusion know Hayden well as the frontman of Hayden Hack Infusion (now called HighLife).

F lair for Fashion New direction: HighLife frontman Hayden Hack with members Lee Hardisty (left), Brad Wenham (right) and Nathaniel Combs (far right) at a recent Crystal Waters benefit gig

Soon after Hayden’s 2008 arrival in Maleny via Melbourne to follow his wife to her home town to raise their beautiful children, daughters Lalita and Kioni, he and local bass player Mitch Ruggles started a two-man outfit.

“I never planned to have a band,” he said. “We played a few gigs and then it grew from there. Within a year we were a five-piece band and then an eight-piece band with a horn section. Now we’re a cranking six-piece.”

Hayden calls HighLife his “music family” and they continue to win the hearts and admiration of scores of fans regionally, nationally, and overseas.

Their sound is infectious and uplifting, a maelstrom of Afrofunk, djembe percussion, sax, flutes, drums, acidy guitar and harmonious arrangements carrying his meaningful words into the world.

“We don’t fit into any genre… I like it that way,” Hayden said.

Most recently, the change in name from Hayden Hack Infusion to HighLife came as a natural progression for the band. Hayden said fans can expect HighLife to uplift their spirits and enjoy the moment we’re in, in this life.

Hayden is playing at Finbars on August 13 and you'll see him at the Maleny Music Weekend.

“I am just so blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people who are inspiring musicians and have beautiful families like my own….it’s really a big family.”

Humour is life’s medicine: Lalita Hack, Kioni Hack with their parents Hayden Hack and Ketakii Jewson-Brown hope they have taught their daughters not to take themselves too seriously. Lalita is the older child.

ENORE MELDRUM, the curator of the Kenilworth Historical Museum ushered me into a little theatre where visitors can view a 20 minute film about the region’s history.

A walking font of history, Lenore regaled me with tales of the town and surrounds for over an hour, while I listened enthralled. “The decision was made for Kenilworth Museum that there would be no duplicates, just interesting displays relative to the visitors, and to current life. Every artifact has a story, and it’s that story that brings history alive.�

One such local story was the Diphtheria epidemic of 1907. “The children might be a little off colour and go to bed, and the tissue grew across their throat and they choked to death in their sleep.� “We have a cemetery in Gheerulla because of two little girls who died of Diptheria in 1907.

Prior to that time anyone who died was buried on the family property, but their parents were not land owners, so the Farmers’ Association set aside reserve land so their little girls could be buried in consecrated ground.�

The devastating illness touched Lenore’s own family and an account of her Aunt Winnie’s experience is documented in a letter, as well as her 1924 diary.

1917 Dial 4.5 horsepower engine at Kenilworth Museum

“She was taking some patent medication and I looked it up, and it was almost pure heroin.�

After struggling to conceive, Winnie’s story ended sadly, when her son was only four years old. She died in a vehicle rollover near the Conondale bridge.

Also on the first floor, the old quarters for the single men working for the forestry has been converted into a showcase for ‘life in days gone by’. Stories of local families

who lost son after son to World Wars are poignantly juxtaposed against the domestic display.

The old kitchen, complete with a timeline of cake mixers from a bowl and whisk to a fancy tin mixer that was freighted in as a surprise by the late Richard Sims, Lenore’s grandfather, is set beside antique dining setting and dresser.

There is an old wringer that shamed me for my whining on washing days, and fatigue set in as Lenore told me how her mother, who had the only telephone exchange in the area, would rise at 3am to do the washing before a 6am start on the switchboard!

Downstairs, is a place where old machines and farm vehicles go to rest in glory. All fabulously restored by Lenore’s uncle Ed Sims - who never wanted anything sitting idle. “Everything had to

work”, said Lenore.

He spent the last three months of his life swearing and sweating over a particular toy steam engine. He got all sorts of machines working, notably, the Ruston and Hornsby engine from S.T. Adams mill in Oakey Creek.

“Unfortunately, he didn’t leave any instructions before he died at age 95, and nobody has been able to get it going since!”

Kenilworth Historical Museum is open from 102pm every Sunday, and Lenore has a million stories, all of them a fascinating entrée into the history of the old Kenilworth, Gheerulla area.

There’s also an App available for historical discoveries around Kenilworth for all that hidden history.

Maleny resident, Bill Scaly, has been feeding the community at the Maleny Neighbourhood Centre with his scrumptious Ayurvedic meals for over a year now, and sharing delicious recipes to boot.

Gay Liddington went to hear more about Ayurveda and how it translates to Bill’s generous way of life.

Bill cooks a community feast

by Gay Liddington

“Happiness radiates like the fragrance from a flower and draws all good things towards you.”

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

A

SIMPLE BELIEF and yet one that Bill Scally lives by.

He speaks of generosity of spirit in the Maleny community but one wonders if he knows how much he exemplifies this quality.

“When you become part of a small community you see the people regularly and can follow up. You’re always available to keep supporting them, whereas in the city it’s very hard to do that.”

Antiques c olle ct ables

re cycled e g a Vint onster M

Carboot

And so it is, that sustainable health and healing has beckoned this Ayurvedic practitioner along his life path…

Bill reflects. “Back in 1974 when I was a very young man, I learnt a meditation technique called Transcendental Meditation (TM). I still practice it every day.

“During the late seventies and early eighties, those of us who were alternatively minded looked for better diets.

I wanted to find a diet that would support the progress I seemed to be making with the meditation.”

Seeking enlightenment, Bill had left his studies at teacher’s college and university to become a meditator.

Embracing an opportunity to be part of an historical event, Bill attended the 1980 Maharishi Vedic Science Conference in Delhi.

“My teacher Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who introduced the TM technique to the world, gathered all of the top Indian Ayurvedic doctors together. It was the first time that such experts had congregated to reassemble ancient knowledge.”

Six years later, married with a child and working full-time as a primary school teacher, Bill honoured the call to become an Ayurvedic technician.

“Back then people found it very difficult to know how to use the spices we were advocating. Modern western science has now acknowledged and verifies the benefits of these herbs and spices - for instance turmeric and its antiinflammatory, antiseptic qualities.

“I was in the first batch to gain this Ayurvedic knowledge.

A doctor and I decided to hold cooking classes to educate

and others can buy a take-away. And then quite often we’ll put up to eight meals into the freezer for emergency rations at the Neighbourhood Centre.”

Meals from Billy’s Ayruvedic Kitchen are also available at Maple Street Co-op, sometimes at the Crystal Waters Market and often at Club Acoustic.

“It’s almost as if I’ve done everything to prepare myself for being here. I feel really blessed that I stuck with this Vedic tradition of knowledge that goes back more than 5,000 years.

It’s knowledge that’s part of me now.”

If Ayurveda is the science then Bill is a true practitioner.

‘Billy’s Ayurvedic’ offers vegetarian catering, cooking classes, massage therapies and lifestyle support.

For more information phone Bill on 0400 306 081.

people how to make this digestible food. And so we ran twoday cooking courses. Over the years I gradually refined it down to one day.

“And now, along with my wife Jane, I’ve taught Ayurvedic cooking in every state and territory in Australia except Tasmania. We were also the main caterers for the TM retreat courses over the last 20 years.”

Bill refers to his career as a school teacher.

“I finished my last school teaching job in mid 2013. And that was teaching aborigines in the Northern Territory. I’ve always gone for more exotic, different, off the map things. So I had two years as a roving teacher travelling to remote communities.

“I really loved the aboriginal children. I used to teach them yoga. They were challenged in many ways and were quite chaotic, but once they started yoga they would settle down within about ten minutes.”

The word ‘ayurveda’ is translated from Sanskrit to mean ‘the science of life’.

Bill explained that according to Ayurveda there are three doshas or controlling principles called Vata, Pitta and Kapha.

These operate within us and without us.

“Everywhere in the universe is controlled by these three principles and they’re interacting all of the time. Every person has the three doshas lively in them but in different quantities.”

I asked how these are assessed. Bill referred to his longtime friend and Maleny local Wendy Rosenfeldt, teacher of Transcendental Meditation and a Maharishi Ayurvedic health practitioner.

“I’ve known Wendy for many years since she was a very young woman. She can take your pulse and tell, even on sub, sub levels, every system in your body, how it’s functioning and the balance in that system.”

Bill moved to Maleny from Sydney at the beginning of 2015 to create a base for his family. Shortly after his arrival an introduction to Maleny Neighbourhood Centre led Bill to volunteer his teaching skills at the Flexi School.

He adds, “I saw an opportunity on a Friday to use the centre’s kitchen and offer something different to cater for another section of the community. And so by early March I’d started the Ayuvedic kitchen.

“There was a lot of interest in learning the cooking process.

Earlier this year Jane and I volunteered our skills and ran a series of cooking classes over four consecutive Mondays.”

Each Friday you will find Bill and his team at Maleny Neighbourhood Centre preparing food for ‘Billy’s Ayurvedic Kitchen’. Bill fondly describes them as being like family. An inviting $12 lunch is served at 12.30pm.

“I just do something really simple, don’t charge a lot and it’s organic food.

“At the end of the day, I give left-over meals to my team

ITTA RESIDENTS no longer have to drive to Maleny when they run out of those bare necessities.

The owners of Maudy's, Sam Kulkarni and Ron Coxhell, have expanded their business, opening the new Witta General Store last month.

Sam said locals had been crying out for a general store and the response so far was fabulous.

“Everyone's just loving it,” he said.

As well as stocking essentials like bread, milk and toilet paper, the store offers a range of local produce and the house-blend Witta Organic Coffee.

The store also has a take-away counter serving burgers, fish and chips.

Sam said the take-away menu will provide an alternative to the fine dining available next door at Maudy's.

He was keen to hear feedback from customers about what they would like to see on the menu.

Sam said he hopes to create a hub for foodies at Witta.

You'll find Witta General Store at 466 Maleny Kenilworth Road, or phone them on (07) 5494 4411.

Peaceful Roads or a TT Motorcycle Race ?

A

SYDNEY PROMOTER is proposing to bring “the world’s deadliest race” (Time Magazine) – where motorcycles will race with speeds of up to 300 kmph over four days on our local roads.

Debate is hot on social media, we are told the TT or "Tourist Trophy" race would give huge exposure to the Hinterland, and a "major economic boost to the entire Sunshine Coast region".

With a predicted massive influx of international and domestic visitors, and as a potential "gold mine" for businesses across the Coast, there is support for the race.

On the flip side, Peaceful Roads Sunshine Coast are a group of Hinterland residents and businesses raising objections because of its potential impact on their work and daily lives.

They say the race is proposed to be held two weeks before Christmas – one of the busiest family periods of the year and that people in the 47km circuit will not be able to leave their houses for work, study or shopping during the race.

The group state that the Hinterland’s vibrant tourism industry is based on the serenity and exceptional scenery of its green countryside. Thousands of visitors every week come for weddings, to enjoy good food and music, or just to have some quiet time in the country.

22

HINTERLAND TIMES – JULY 2016

"Each week these visitors inject dollars into our local economy, supporting hundreds of businesses that have been developed to meet the needs of our tourism market," said a group spokesperson.

"The proposed race would ruin this unique environment we have taken over 20 years to build."

They share, "We do not need to become known internationally as a “place to race”, opening the doors to a threat of a 365 day change to our lifestyle."

Cr Jenny McKay told the Hinterland Times that, "An application has been lodged. The due process would have been for it to be assessed by Council Officers, elevated to the Events Boards, which is an appointed external board and only from there, if it had met all the criteria - be brought to Council.

However, we are now dealing with the issues.

"I have more questions than answers," Cr Jenny admits, "and have advised the community that this application will now take the path that it should have, which is thorough forensic examination, culturally, socially and economically prior to any further public comment.

"This assessment will also provide proposed cost to State and Local Government to hold such an event and if the economic returns balance the commitment."

An easyrider near Kenilworth: our roads are already popular - but do local residents want a TT race?

Image Natalie Brown

Cr Jenny says it could be between "3 to 12 months" before council knows more, "depending on the Applicant's ability to provide the information needed to form a report to Council".

Country cooks tackle

obesity crisis

by Jessica McKenzie

W

HEN JUDY STUBBS was a girl, she learned to cook watching her mother and grandmother. As the eldest of six children she was soon put to work, getting dinner started while her mother helped her father in the fields.

Judy honed her cooking skills at school and went on to become a teacher of cooking and sewing.

Her love of good food and cooking is infectious. Her face lights up as tells me how the expert home cooks of the Queensland CWA are being mobilised to tackle a hefty health problem.

Two in three adults in Queensland are either overweight or obese, as are one in four children. Faced with these alarming statistics, Queensland Health invested $2.2 million over three years to implement the Country Kitchens program with the QCWA. The program will deliver hands-on nutrition workshops in 80 rural, regional and remote communities across Queensland.

Over the next six months, Maleny and Beerwah CWA members and other interested community groups will be trained by dietitians to deliver the program.

Early next year they will venture out into the community to inspire and educate people to make healthier food choices.

Judy was brimming with ideas after attending an induction with Country Kitchens lead dietitian Fiona McKenzie on June 20. “I'm convinced. It is going to be so interesting and so worthwhile,” she said.

“If we can influence younger people to make better choices, we might have a future without some of these chronic diseases.”

Judy said she was “over the moon” to have the Girl Guides, Maleny Neighbourhood Centre, TS Centaur Navy Cadets and other community groups involved in the project. She said Country Kitchens had given new life and new purpose to the QCWA. “I really think that it's a big part of the future of the CWA,” she said.“If we set the

example, I think more people will want to join the CWA because they can see we are making a real difference.”

Lead dietitian Fiona McKenzie said the QCWA was perfectly placed to respond to specific needs in the community. She said the proliferation of fast food and high fat, high sugar products was a major factor in the obesity crisis.

The Country Kitchens program would demonstrate how quick, tasty and nutritious home cooking could be.

Kondalilla Eco Resort Manager Jacqui Freeman says the Picnic Creek room is perfect for retreats and workshops

Retreat to

Kondalilla Eco Resort

APPLED SUNLIGHT streams in through the glass walls of the Picnic Creek building at Kondalilla Eco Resort, where the only sounds are birdsong and the rustling of wind through the trees.

It's here in this tranquil rainforest setting that owner Gene Thompson and his partner Janet McGeever have guided many couples to find a deeper connection in their love making.

The six-day Making Love Retreat draws on tantric methods to help couples understand and explore their sexuality.

Already a successful businessman, Gene trained as a marriage councillor in the late 1970s. Driven by a desire to understand life, love and sexuality, he has travelled the world to learn from leaders in holistic counselling, journey work and tantra.

In 2008, Gene and Janet travelled to Switzerland to take part in the Making Love Retreat created by Diana Richardson. The couple were so impressed by Diana's methods, they returned to Switzerland in 2011 and gained approval to run the retreat in Australia.

When Treehouses of Montville came on the market 18 months ago, Gene purchased the property to serve as a permanent venue for the retreats.

Late last year, he changed the name to Kondalilla Eco Resort, reflecting the property's proximity to the national park and its ties to the Gubbi Gubbi people. He has since renovated the Picnic Creek room, installing a glass wall to bring in natural light and reveal beautiful views over the water.

The venue is used for a range of retreats including one and two-day weaving workshops with Maleny artist Alice Spittle. Alice teaches traditional Maori weaving techniques with New Zealand flax while sharing spiritual and cultural insights.

Health and fitness guru Edwina Griffin also hosts regular Health and Healing retreats at the resort.

Her teaching is based on the mind-body-spirit connection and the three-day retreat includes meditation, exercise, nutrition and ceremony.

Resort manager Jacqui Freeman said the Picnic Creek retreat room provided the business with a point-ofdifference in the Montville tourism market.

“Accommodation is our core business and the retreat is something we offer back to the community,” she said.

“It is a work in progress but ultimately I'd like to see Picnic Creek being used every day for some sort of teaching or education.”

Ms Freeman is also excited to be involved in the Hinterland Gourmet Safaris, run by Matilda Scarfe of Gourmet Afrika. The week-long tour will take guests from Maleny to Cooroy and includes a good mix of fine dining, pub meals, barbecues, wine tastings, cooking classes and farm tours.

Guests will stay two nights at Kondalilla Eco Resort during the Montville leg of the tour.

Creating a healthier and wealthier community O

NCE AGAIN MALENY will hold an event that is a first of its kind on the Sunshine Coast. The Hinterland Finance and Sustainability Expo will be a free one day event held at the Maleny Showground on July 23 from 9am – 3pm.

The event brings together a number of financial and environmental experts who will share their knowledge and inspire visitors to take action to improve their personal, family and business situations, and contribute to making a more sustainable community.

Many of us know how important it is to start financial planning and invest in our future.

Nowadays there is also a growing awareness of taking a more ethical approach to financial investments, but many just don’t know where to start.

For some, just working out the basics, such as how to manage a budget and understanding how finance works, is puzzling and confusing enough.

This can be a challenging task on our own, even just getting started working out which professionals you might see and how to fit in making appointments to get the ball rolling can be difficult.

The President of the Maleny Commerce, Spencer Shaw, said that over the past few years the Chamber could see that there is a gap in the financial understanding of our community, between the desire to make things happen and having the skills and knowledge to achieve it.

“We also know that Maleny sets a great example to the rest of the Sunshine Coast; to show them how it is done, that people power is truly important and by connecting with others and bringing people together, we can achieve much more.”

Mr Shaw said, “Fortunately the Maleny Credit Union and the Sunshine Coast Council were keen to join forces and assist us to create a free event – the Hinterland Finance and Sustainability Expo – which hopes to bridge the gap.

“Ultimately we wanted to bring a unique blend of experts together who could act as a catalyst for change by giving people the knowledge and understanding that they need for their stage of life and experience.

“The event’s organising committee have put together a program that combines a group of motivated business people / exhibitors as well as two inspiring speakers and a number of panel discussions, where attendees to either contribute or quietly sit back and take it all in.”

The two guest speakers will be Dale Symons from ASIC MoneySmart who will talk about understanding finance, along with inspirational and award-winning local business operator Bob Cameron from Rockcoat, who has happily given up his time to share his learnings with other business people.

There will also be three panel discussion topics – ‘Growing Business for Sustainable Communities’, ‘Financial Literacy’ and ‘Ethical Investments’.

The event also features 36 businesses who represent either financial or sustainability services and products.

“We believe that the event will be a great opportunity for locals and visitors to the area to learn more for themselves personally and this in turn will benefit the sustainability of the area,” Mr Shaw said.

RSPCA de-sexing campaign available in Maleny

L

AST YEAR it is estimated that 20,000 extra animals were de-sexed thanks to the RSPCA Qld Operation Wanted campaign and this year they’re hoping the numbers will top 30,000.

Over 170 vets reduce their de-sexing fees by at least 20% for three months.

Dr Susan Portas with a female Rhodesian ridgeback, Scout, who was recently desexed

“Nearly 45,000 animals come into our care every year and the vast majority of these have not been de-sexed," said RSPCA Qld spokesperson Michael Beatty. "We’ve got to get the message out there.”

Dr Susan Portas from District Vets Maleny agrees, "It's basically to try and encourage people to desex their animals, and make it more affordable."

"Without desexing there is more chance that accidental breeding will occur. There are already lots of animals trying to find homes, neglected or dumped - we don’t want more unwanted puppies and kittens."

The reason we have such a massive feral cat and wild dog population is because people aren't de-sexing their pets.

Responsible pet owners can reduce this threat to our native wildlife – both in our national parks and in our own backyards – and make a real difference to our environment - just by a simple de-sexing procedure.

"It's easy to do - it just takes a phone call or come in and see us. It is done in a day, then you don't have to worry about anything," says Susan.

It is not income tested, any residents can come and access the savings - and as Susan says, "Everyone enjoys a discount!"

Call Susan and the team on 5499 9077 or find them at 7 Myrtle Street, Maleny and access 20% off desexings until August 31.

The advantages to having your pet de-sexed are enormous: ● No risk of unwanted litters ● Reduces desire to roam ● Reduces risk of some cancers ● Reduces other unwanted behaviours such as urine spraying (cats) ● Cheaper Council registration fees ● Allows pets to be healthier and happier

POWER OF ATTORNEY WHEN & WHY IS IT NEEDED? There can be a multitude of reasons why you will need someone else to act on your behalf – you may be travelling overseas where communication is difficult or you may be experiencing a serious health problem such as lengthy hospital stays or loss of mental capacity. This is where a Power of Attorney comes in. The grant of a Power of Attorney can either be made as a general grant for a particular purpose and for a particular time frame as long as the purpose of the grant does not relate to medical or personal matters; or as an enduring grant for an unlimited time frame for financial, personal and health matters.

It is important to distinguish between a grant of power of attorney and a will. A grant of power of attorney can only be used when the person granting the power is alive. Should that person die, then the grant of power of attorney ceases to be of effect and the Will takes over.

Everyone should consider appointing someone to act as their enduring attorney.

The choice of an attorney should be taken with a lot of care and thought and should be someone you have complete trust in.

When appointing someone as your enduring attorney you can specify exactly in which circumstance that person will act as your attorney. An example is the circumstance where you have been assessed by a medical practitioner as having lost capacity. To remove someone as an attorney is also possible by you expressly revoking that power.

By appointing an enduring attorney you are protecting yourself against the possibility that should you one day lose capacity to manage your own affairs you will not put your financial position at risk. It is an insurance policy worth having!

LET US FIND THE RIGHT PEOPLE FOR YOU

MEMBER OF GROWCOM

Desrae and Don Stewart

by Victoria McGuin

D

ON AND DESRAE Stewart are well-known social figures on the Range. They ran the first motel in Maleny, Rolling Hills, back in 1982, before converting an old Flaxton home into Tanderra guest house, “the first one at this end of the Range,” states Desrae.

By the year 2000 however, they decided to retire to Mapleton and enjoy time together – and apart. “I hardly see Desrae three days a week, what with her crafts groups, Mah-jong and Rummy!” Don says.

Until recently, Don was a keen woodworker, turning lamps, carving bowls and wooden fruit and making furniture, plus driving for the Care Cottage. Now, though, he is happy with his mountain walks and playing bowls.

“Don climbed Mount Holdsworth, 5000 feet, when he was 82,” Desrae tell me with pride.

Desrae herself is certainly busy. Having been a member of the Maleny Craft Group in the 80s, she missed the

creativity and camaraderie once they moved to Flaxton; so Don suggested forming her own craft group.

“We advertised in the local paper in Nambour, and started with about seven women. Now there are nearly twenty of us,” Desrae says.

“We’re a great group. We have made dolls and teddy bears in the past, but these days it’s mainly quilting, embroidery, crocheting and patchwork” she explains.

The group meet every Thursday from 9am to midday at 152 Flaxton Mill Road. “A very kind friend has a studio on her property and offered it for our group to use,” Desrae tells me.

The Flaxton Craft Group pay $2 each week, which includes morning tea and a celebration of Christmas in July, and Christmas in December.

“We sell our quilts locally, and often through word-ofmouth,” Desrae shares. “And each year we give about $200 that we make to local charities, such as Katie Rose, the Salvos and Cup for Cancer.”

Desrae shows me an array of quilts she has worked on recently, from modern to candlewick designs.

With seven granddaughters, she has a readymade fan club, although admits some “are growing out of quilts sadly these days”.

The Flaxton Craft Group are happily undeterred by changing fashions, as they enjoy all that their weekly gathering can bring. “We’re like a big family. We swap recipes, stories, ideas…and create some lovely work in the process. And we always like to welcome new members!” Desrae smiles.

If you are interested in something creative and social with a needle and thread in hand, then give Desrae a call on 07 5478 6720.

Between a Wolf and a Dog

Patina Farm

The Boy with the Big Hair

by Georgia Blain

by Brooke and Steve Giannetti

by Khoa Le

with Anne Brown of

This is a beautiful, melancholic book, alive with the fragility of life that touches us all. It calls in the atmosphere of a rainy day in Australia beautifully, a metaphor for our very own sorrows, and how quickly our imprint in this world can fade. It leaves the reader with a heavy heart, and a feeling of urgency with respect to one’s own life. Taking place largely over one rainy day in Sydney, and rendered with the evocative and powerful prose Blain is known for, Between a Wolf and a Dog is a celebration of the best in all of us -- our capacity to live in the face of ordinary sorrows, and to draw strength from the transformative power of art.

Ultimately, it is a joyous tribute to the beauty of being alive.

A new farm home blending modern lines and materials with French antiques.

When Brooke and Steve Giannetti decided to leave their suburban Santa Monica home to build a new life on a farm, they looked into themselves, and travelled to Belgium and France, for inspiration. Brooke’s inviting prose combines with 200 photographs and Steve’s architectural drawings to show their inspirations, their materials selections, and the enviable result of their team effort and creativity: an idyllic farm in California’s Ojai Valley. We see every corner of the family home, guesthouse, lush gardens, and delightful animal quarters.

This is not your typical coffee table design book. The book takes you through the design process from raw property, initial home design, landscape design, final construction and finished interior design. When designers, authors, and a publisher come together in a book as well-done as this one, it is an absolute joy to the reader.

Harry hates brushing his hair, but when two doves decide to build a nest in his tangled mop, he has bigger problems than just avoiding an annoying comb. As Harry’s hair continues to grow more and more tangled, a tree begins to grow right out of his head! The tree attracts more birds before their singing starts to drive Harry crazy.

Thankfully, his mom comes to the rescue with a solution, but not before Harry learns a big lesson about the importance of keeping himself and his hair neat and tidy. Full of gorgeous illustrations, “The Boy with the Big Hair” is sure to delight even the most wild of children!

0RQWYLOOH $UW *DOOHU\

uDY WAS BORN in Adelaide in 1971 to gifted artists, Louis and Lucette DaLozzo. Her childhood consisted of bohemian treks around Australia with her parents and older brother, Sebastien. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 1977, my parents heard of Noosa, a little piece of paradise with a French connection. At first, we lived in a caravan in Noosa Woods. About a year later, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hilton Houseâ&#x20AC;? at 60 Hastings Street became available for rent. It was an old, high set colonial house on stumps. It was there that my parents opened the very first gallery in Hastings Street. In those days, you could do everything in Hastings Street. There was a butcher and a newsagent and even a dentist operating from the space where Tony and Joan Page had their Beachside Art Gallery from 1995 until 2006.â&#x20AC;?

Before finishing high school, Judy was offered three major art scholarships, an enormous privilege for a young Australian art student. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I chose to study at Ecole des Beaux Arts in Mons, Belgium as the scholarship came with a five year living grant. Also, it is where my mother studied.â&#x20AC;?

On completion of her studies, Judy returned to Australia and settled in Queensland where she lives with her husband and two children. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Judy has an exceptional talent for the ingenious use of subject matter, composition and collage,â&#x20AC;? gallery owner, Joan Page informed us. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Her exquisite paintings exude a quality of freshness, youth and vitality. She has an innate talent for harmonizing the traditional and the modern.â&#x20AC;?

Still Life paintings in oil on canvas and nude drawings in ink are Judyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s favourite subjects. Her talents arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t restricted to paintings. She excels also in ceramics and sculpture.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have been fortunate to travel extensively in Europe, united States and Canada but it, was my travels throughout Australia as a child that convinced me I was born to paint. The stark light and vivid colours of nature were my initial inspirations.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are thrilled to have Judy as our feature artist for July,â&#x20AC;? said gallery manager, Lisa Powell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have been exhibiting her paintings since she was a teenager and she is a firm favourite with us and our clients.â&#x20AC;?

Open daily from 10 to 5, the gallery is located at 138 Main Street, Montville, opposite the Village Green. From July1st, Judyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paintings will be featured under â&#x20AC;&#x153;Exhibitionsâ&#x20AC;? on the galleryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website www.montvilleartgallery.com.au and also on our Facebook page.

ALENY SuPA IGA, the oldest original commercial premises in Maleny, recently teamed up with local commercial solar developers, Project Brainstorm, to install solar power to help keep their food fresh.

The store began trading at their current premises in 1905 as the 'universal Providers” and since 1995 the current owners, Rob and Samantha Outridge, have endeavoured to provide as much locally sourced produce, products and small goods as possible to the Blackall Range community.

“We strive to work with locals as much as possible because it helps keep the money circulating within the local community,” declared Rob when asked what inspired him to make this investment.

Through collaborative consultation with Luciano Giangiordano and Rob Swales from Project Brainstorm, they’ve developed a unique three-step approach to help IGA reduce the ever-growing cost of electricity directly affecting the price of goods to their customers.

The process began by fitting ‘Power Factor Correction’ to improve the electrical efficiency of the grid-supplied power before a 52kW solar system was installed.

The third and final phase will be implemented after a period of collecting and analysing the combined performance of the solar energy with the Power Factor Correction unit.

Luciano Giangiordano, CEO of Project Brainstorm, explained, “This analysis will take place over the next 6-to12 months from data being gathered and analysed.

“This approach will ascertain the best way to attack the peak demand charges using either batteries, an LPG generator or a combination of both, including more solar panels to further reduce electricity consumption.”

Rob Outridge had the last word on the project as he stood watching the overhead visual display monitor situated

near the checkouts, clocking up another 200+ kilowatt hours of solar power production for the day.

Obviously happy with his decision Rob informed us that, “Many of our customers were urging us to go solar for some time and we had been looking into it for a few years, but it had never stacked up from a business perspective.

“Recently with the price of solar becoming much more compelling we decided to install it, adding this public monitoring of the solar production in order to share the information with our customers.

“In this way they can see the benefits to the community and environment. The project has been a win-win for local businesses, our customers and ourselves.”

HETHER YOu'RE A stressed out soccer mum or a toddler with teething issues, Juan Perez has a knack for putting people at ease.

It was those people skills which he credits for his rise up the ranks from a spray-painter on the shop floor, to the national manager of a successful smash repair chain.

The same skills helped him to hit the ground running when he ditched the high-pressure leadership role to start a family daycare with his wife Katchia Avenell, in Brisbane.

Mr Perez said he was working 70 to 80 hours a week when his first son, Diego was born. “I missed out on the first one or two years of his life, working so many hours,” he said.

“I quit my job and we started a small family daycare at home where we were both looking after the children.”

Becoming a stay-at-home dad was a massive change from his former life and came with it's own challenges.

“The washing - it never ends! It's the amount of work that you take for granted,” he shared.

But Mr Perez said being involved from the birth of his younger son, Mateo, made it all worthwhile.

“I think the best thing is watching the kids play and when they're laughing their heads off and asking you silly questions,” he smiled.

Family man smashes targets When it came time for Diego to start school, the family packed up and moved to Maleny so the children could attend The River School.

“We actually honeymooned in this area when we got married,” Mr Perez said. “We love the country and we always said we were going to move up here one day.”

Ms Avenell now has a job at The River School kindy, where she is becoming well known and loved in the community.

Mr Perez said he was bored at home and decided to

phone Greg McDonald, owner of Maleny Smash Repairs, to offer his services.

Mr McDonald recognised the experience Mr Perez could bring to the company and immediately handed him the reins.

In the three months since he came on board, Mr Perez has modernised and streamlined the business. He said his first priority was to get the car back to the customer faster, on the same day if possible.

He also wants to spread the word out to Hinterland

Above: Maleny Smash Repairs owner Greg McDonald and manager Juan Perez are working together to revitalise the business

locals that they don't have to take their car to coast for repairs.

“The biggest hurdle that we've tried to overcome is you don't have to go down the hill to get a quote,” he said.

“You just have to tell your insurance company you want Maleny Smash Repairs.”

Oxymoron I

N A SINGuLARLY petulant and graceless speech in the early hours after election night, Malcolm Turnbull said he thought he would be returned to government.

His surly but defiant supporters – those of them who had not already gone home – snarled agreement.

And for what it is worth, I concur: my fearless prediction is that the coalition will end up with between 76 to 78 seats in the House of Representatives, a thin but decisive majority.

But this is not the way it was meant to be, and it is definitely not as the commentators, the editorialists and the bookmakers confidently forecast.

Although the national polls were always close, we were repeatedly reassured that the marginals were holding for the coalition.

In fact, they were all over the place: Tasmania collapsed, New South Wales swung further than expected and Queensland did not stay solid. It has been a damn close run thing.

We have been saved from the awful fate of Bill Shorten: our savings thrown down the toilet, our families left to starve at the hands of the unions, our children bound into slavery from the marauding hordes of boat people and the rest of the chaos of which we were warned by our government and its supporters, most particularly the tabloids of the Murdoch press.

Instead, we breathe again: Malcolm Turnbull lives on, but he is almost on life support.

He promised us excitement, agility, unity and stability; now it seems a bit oxymoronic, and we’re not just saying that because he studied at Oxford.

He is no more than half right: there will be plenty of excitement in the offing, maybe even a bit of agility.

But unity? Hardly: Turnbull is even further bound in thrall to the conservative rump, who will forever insist that their man – Tony Abbott – could not have done worse and would almost certainly have done better.

There is no thought of a reverse leadership coup – yet. But stability is simply out of the question. The hard liners will continue to fester in the party room, waiting for the smallest stumble.

And there will almost certainly be plenty of those. It will

“... Bill Shorten’s exaggerated and misleading propaganda campaign was simply more effective than Turnbull’s exaggerated and misleading propaganda campaign. “ be weeks before the final composition of the senate is determined, but it is already certain that Turnbull’s great electoral reform has backfired badly: far from clearing the independents out, they have jostled their way back in a way which will make stable government – even with the wishywashy form to which we have been accustomed – all but impossible.

And the great strategy for a joint sitting to pass the industrial relations bills is no longer being discussed.

In fact even the national economic plan – jobs and growth, globs of mirth – is at serious risk; it may survive, bit it will be need to be negotiated, perhaps beyond recognition.

So who is to blame? Well, certainly not Turnbull – he has no doubt at all. It was all Labor’s big lie on Medicare -shameless, fraudulent, dishonourable, etc: as I have noted elsewhere, it sounded like the bellowing of a maddened thesaurus.

But in fact the truth was that Bill Shorten’s exaggerated and misleading propaganda campaign was simply more effective than Turnbull’s exaggerated and misleading propaganda campaign.

The coalition has niggled away at Medicare for years – generations in fact; Shorten’s contention that Medicare could be privatised, or at least dismantled, bit.

Turnbull’s apocalyptic threats to the budget over negative gearing, the so-called war on business, and the reprise of the boat people did not really resonate.

It was as simple as that; but better any excuse than having to confront the dreadful reality: Turnbull stuffed it up.

As a result, Shorten should be immune from an immediate challenge. Anthony Albanese is a credible and popular contender, but the relief that Labor is not only back from the brink but hovering close to government should concentrate the minds of the doubters.

This does not mean that Shorten is assured of another go at the next election, but it gives him more than a buffer than even he would have dared to hope.

So in a sense there will be a period of relative stability as both the major parties draw breath and sort themselves out. But in terms of legislation, or even policy, there is now

something of a vacuum.

Labor’s platform has now been shelved and most of the coalition’s will have to be reformulated or at least placed on the backburner while both the party room and, more importantly, the senate can be persuaded of an agenda for the next term.

Shorten has declared that Turnbull will not have a mandate; political theorists may argue, but the practicalities make it clear that every so-called reform will have to be fought through, and many, if not most, will fail.

Legislation will be at premium; compromise and conciliation will have to give way to the threats and bribes of the previous term.

This is not to say that nothing can be achieved, but it does mean that Turnbull will have to retreat from the belligerence of the campaign, and more particularly from his unforgiving stance on election night.

At his final press club address last week, he said that he believed Australians were looking for a greater sense of common purpose, for the parliament to offload the ideology and focus on an end to division for division’s sake.

And perhaps they are, but they have seen precious little of it in the last eight weeks.

If Turnbull wants to make the change, he will have to start right in the parliament – even in the fastnesses of his own party room. It may happen, but it must be said that the portents are not promising.

And thus we have come to the end – or at least the beginning of the end – of a depressing election campaign, and the equally depressing beginning – well, the start of the beginning – of the next episode.

The next three years promise to be interesting times indeed, and very possibly still more depressing – more of the same, and we haven’t enjoyed that so far.

But there is one ray of light and hope: we will no longer have to endure the daily homilies from the government spokescyborg, Matthias Cormann.

It may not be feasible to turn him off entirely – he is, after all, pre-programmed for eternity. But at least we won’t have to throw things at the television every time he appears.

It’s not much, but it’s something to be thankful for.

Tips from the best

Busy Needles have been crafting winter woolies - lovely warm and colourful knee rugs, hug-metights, beanies, scarves, mittens and bed socks.

Maleny's Busy Needles group meets every fortnight from 9 - 11am in the Verandah Room of the Community Centre.

They provide wool, needles and patterns for a variety of projects including Premmy Babies, Erowal, Maleny Memorial Hospital, Prince Charles Foundation, Salvation Army and beanies for cancer patients.

Last month several members visited Erowal to distribute the many items this group had lovingly crafted.

Residents like Gladys Penney (pictured) selected items for themselves and the staff distributed the gifts to those who are “bed bound”.

"It is always very heart-warming to see and hear their expressions of appreciation, this is what keeps us producing these items each year for them. A lovely afternoon tea was shared by all, Busy Needles ladies, residents and staff," said member Lorraine Van den Brink.

You are welcome to join them for their next get together on July 14, enquiries to Florence on 5494 2115 or Dorothea on 3349 8969.

C R E AT I V E C U T S Afro Foli Festival

Landscape and Mood Annie McIntosh celebrates the diversity of our landscape, from barren inland desert to coastland. The images are drawn from memories of travels around our country, yet combine reality with fantasy.

Collage, printing, acrylic paint and inks are used in an annihilate/ replace method of working to delve deeper into the strata of landscape.

She is preoccupied with the effect of colour and mark making on mood, inviting the viewer to experience the emotional response along with her.

The exhibition "An Exploration of Landscape and Mood" is at Garden Haus Gallery, The Garden Maleny, July 11–31.

Bassidi Koné, of Bobo origin, grew up beside his father’s favourite instrument, the balaphon (a traditional, wooden xylophone).

During his early teenage years, he began playing alongside a master djembefola (djembe player). The young Bassidi extended his skill and quickly distinguished himself through his innovative solos and technical virtuosity.

Bassidi tours internationally and collaborates with internationally diverse ensemble groups and this year he visits Palmwoods at the community friendly Afro Foli Festival on July 23.

Bassidi will teach and perform with his wonderous balaphon and djembe skills and perform alongside local band, HighLife.

Maori contemporary artist, Alice Spittle has exhibited her work in galleries and events throughout New Zealand and most recently in Australia.

Alice is now creating full time with new work showing at Maleny Art Direct (MAD) in Maple Street.

"The idea behind the work that I do is to discuss legacy and what that means to each person. I want to look at what I am choosing to pass down to future generations.

Knowledge is to be shared!

“I have used my legacy series (paintings) and brought them into a three dimensional form. Also, with my love for weaving I’ve added the traditionally woven cloaks to showcase their prestige."

Rob Natoli at ‘Pop Up’ Art Gallery

Rob Natoli, a well-known local arts figure with lovely landscapes and wood fired pottery is one of the newest members at the ‘Pop up Art Gallery’.

Artist and educator, Rob says, "My work is a reflection of environments I live in, how those environments interact with me and how I respond."

"I love the physicality of art making, of making marks that only I will make both conscious and subconscious. Art is exploring what moves us and what gives it soul in a digital age when appropriation and novelty thrive."

Mayhem At The Playhouse

Songlines: The living narrative of our nation, showcases work from Jane Nicol and David Miller.

For Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, the Dreamtime describes a time when the earth, people and animals were created by our ancestral spiritual beings. They created the rivers, lakes, plants, land formations and living creatures.

Dreaming tracks crisscross Australia and trace the journeys of our ancestral spirits as they created the land, animals and lores. These dreaming tracks are sometimes called ‘Songlines’ as they record the travels of these ancestral spirits who 'sung' the land into life.

The "Dreamtime" Art Exhibition Celebrating 2016 NAIDOC Week is on July 9 at 5pm at Maleny Art Direct.

Annie J & Fusion are a group of awesomely diverse musicians collaborating with an equally awesome chick, who writes some amazingly diverse original songs, mixing up funk, blues, rock and reggae into a unique dance groove we like to call FuSION. They are quickly becoming one of the ‘go to’ bands on the coast and were selected to play at Mitchell Creek Rock'n'Blues Festival in 2015 to an appreciative audience.

This band creates a sound that is new, funky, danceable, singable and fun with lyrics that can evoke serious thought and laughter that will just make you feel happy inside.

Enjoy their act at Finbars, July 23.

Young Queensland musician Oskar Campbell has been playing gigs around the Sunshine Coast for the past few years, steadily growing a loyal music following.

His twists on old classics; such as Johnny Cash’s Folsom Prison Blues and Elvis’ Burning Love; are fresh and dynamic, winning over audiences of all ages, with most performances ending in relentless calls for numerous encores.

A skilful guitarist and talented songwriter Oskar's latest single Into the Night captures his audience with its simple and beautiful hook.

Australia has 7 recognised native Citrus, one local and two from not far away.

The Round or Gympie Lime Citrus australis is occurs naturally between Beenleigh and Gympie. It favours low canopy rainforests with higher light levels and the seedling and saplings are noted for their spiky stems. As a tree they have been recorded up to 20 metres, but locally some of the bigger ones seen are paddock trees to 10 metres, with a bushy form. The fruit are dark green, rough skinned and up to 7cm across. Some of the large paddock trees have been known to produce a 100kgs of fruit or more and these can be used to make a tasty marmalade.

Finger Lime Citrus australasica occurs naturally between Ballina NSW and Beenleigh, with naturally red fruiting forms occurring in SE QLD. Finger Lime again favour areas of increased light levels in Rainforests and can grow either as a shrub or small tree to 10 metres. This species has received the most attention from horticulturalists and plant breeders

for the ability of the fruit fresh to separate when removed from the skin into small crystal like beads of citrus juice.

Fruit can be yellow, green, black, red and various combinations and approx. 4-8cm long by 1-2cm wide. We are currently stocking Rainforest Pearl, a red / pink variety.

Finger Lime are a great refreshing and tangy addition to drinks and meals such as seafood.

The last of our close to local citrus is Desert Lime Citrus glauca from western Queensland, New South Wales and over the border into South Australia. This glaucous, spiky shrub is found in semi-arid woodlands and can hold its own against grazing pressures with its thorny nature. The fruit although small are produced en-masse and are being brought into cultivation and wild harvested to supply their small but very tasty fruit to a wider market of chefs and bushfood connoisseurs. You could be ambitious and have a go at growing this in a drier spot but it is a true arid country plant.

Besides rewarding us with fruit, our spiky local native citrus are sought after nesting sites for some off our small native birds, for the protection they provide against hungry pythons. In addition, the beautiful Orchard Swallowtail Butterflies will enjoy sharing the foliage with you. Do yourself a flavour and plant a local Citrus in your backyard.

Feral Yellow

I

T’S THAT TIME of year, once again, and the hills are alive with feral yellow. The yellow referred to is the bright colour of the large daisy flowers belonging to Japanese Sunflower, Tithonia diversifolia.

This shrubby plant can grow 2-3m tall and has greyish-green hairy leaves. Whilst frequently called Japanese Sunflower, it is native to eastern Mexico and Central America, the home ground of quite a lot of our weeds.

Whilst in flower, it is certainly eye catching but for the remainder of the year those large swathes and patches are a dirty grey-green and decidedly unattractive to both people and livestock, although goats will break it down and eat at least some of it. However, letting goats loose except under strictly controlled conditions, is not generally recommended. A monoculture of this plant is of absolutely no value to our native fauna, and it will certainly spread to

form a dense mass, excluding all other plants.

The message to everyone, Councils, Main Roads, and private landholders, is to get rid of the patches before they spread.

The plant is susceptible to spot spraying, cut and paint methods and manual removal. Since it is flowering now, make sure all accessible flower heads are removed and bagged before seed is set.

Once it has spread across a steep hillside, it is much more difficult to control.

And now for another daisy. Montanoa hibiscifolia, closely related to Tree Daisy and also cultivated in gardens, is native to East Africa, and is a weed of roadsides, rainforest margins and the banks of watercourses. Flowering usually follows that of Japanese Sunflower and these daisies are white.

It is not as rampant in its growth habits but does, nevertheless, need to be controlled. Remove the flowers before

Japanese Sunflower, Tithonia diversifolia they set seed.

We have a wonderful climate here in the Hinterland, which regrettably, also favours weeds. Controlling them is an ongoing battle but it’s a battle worth winning.

HINTERLAND TIMES – JuLY 2016

HE WILD WEATHER over the weekend of June 4th and 5th saw some spectacular tree failures across the Range. A lot of these failures were due to prior mistreatment of the root plates of the trees through human activity around the tree bases.

This activity included paving, earthwork which either raised, lowered or otherwise reshaped the soil levels around the tree, and one of the trees that failed had a new carpark built under it.

All this work was done with little or no regard, or understanding, of the tree’s needs. If you have any doubts about work you are undertaking, particularly earthworks, call an arborist.

Remember, up to half of a tree’s mass exists and functions under the ground.

As a rough guide, if you are within the dripline of a tree, or in other words, inside the line of the canopy edge, you are on the tree’s root zone. 12 times the trunk diameter, and you are in what is known as the Critical Root Zone, CRZ, and

any work done in this zone should be done under the guidance of a qualified arborist. For example, a tree with a 1 metre trunk diameter has a CRZ with a 12 metre radius.

Be particularly mindful if the tree you are working near could hit a building or other target if it fails.

IRE PITS have become a central part of our outdoor living, evolving from the days of caveman and campsites (out of necessity) to a myriad of modern designs to suit each individual application.

There is something primeval, mesmerising and calming watching flames in motion.

Most fire pits are fuelled by wood or charcoal with some designs operating on gas.

Not only is it a place to gather and chat with a drink of choice but also a means of cooking, using skewers, grill baskets, cooking grate, cast iron skillet of rotisserie.

Community News Community News Community News Art mural takes flight

Teens - read and win in July

Book now for RECYCLERAMA

The pilot project 'Say Yes To Family Peace' is about to take off from Maleny.

Last month the Maleny Neighbourhood Centre hosted the creation of an extraordinary community artwork pioneered by artist Rob Clark.

Rob said, "We plan to take this to neighbourhood centres and community centres across Australia. We're starting with the Sunshine Coast - Caloundra and Nambour.

Free to participate, 133 canvases formed the mural, leading to conversations of hope and support.

Sale of the canvasses will support families seeking help through a range of programs.

Rob said government officers suggested strategies to move the project forward and stated that this initiative is in alignment with the government's mission to end domestic and family violence in Queensland.

"We are meeting with the Mayor, and have received support from Robert Ah Hoon from the Men's Wellbeing Association and Gene Thompson from Kondalilla Eco Resort.

"Say yes to family peace, is the other side of saying no - identifying positive solutions that create peace," said Rob, "and it started right here on our Hinterland."

Every July is teenReadmonth for 12 to 18-year-old bookworms or casual readers at their favourite Sunshine Coast Council library.

Community Portfolio Councillor Jenny McKay said “There are four easy steps and teens can then be in the running to win some fantastic prizes.”

“Once again, in a partnership with Voices on the Coast Youth Literature Festival, there is also a school Box of Books prize.

“Entrants simply nominate their school to go in the running to win a big box of books donated by Voices on the Coast for their school library.

“The more books you read the more chances you have to win.”

How to enter teenReadmonth: 1. Become a member of Sunshine Coast Libraries if you aren’t already; 2.

Register for teenReadmonth online or in person at your local library; 3. Read five items (books, eBooks, magazines, manga or graphic novels); 4. Complete a reading log.

There are $50 gift cards to be won, and registrations open at 9am on Friday, June 24 and close at 5pm on Sunday, July 31. For more details head to council’s library website or call your local library on 5475 8989.

It’s time to join an epic day of recycling at RECYCLERAMA! This bustling, busy place is full-tobursting with antiques, collectables, vintage items and loads of bargains in the car boot.

1500 plus people attended the last event and it had the buzz of a great European Market.

If you’d like to book a site, be quick for the Antique and Collectable indoor sites, or the outdoor areas. You will need to join the queue early for the best spots available, after previous stallholders confirm if they are rebooking their spaces.

This is a perfect day to sell your unwanted treasures or perhaps find some new ones! See over 100 - 150 car boot stalls, and take part in the Cent Auction drawn three times daily.

Enjoy yummy food and delicious coffee for breakfast and lunch, including pizza, sausage sizzle, baked goods and gourmet ice cream.

Coach tours are available and there is an ATM on site. So book a stall at the Maleny Showgrounds this August 13, and enjoy the atmosphere!

Secretary June Dunn said, "We have just purchased two “low-height” beds at a cost of $9328 for the hospital and Nicole White, Director of Nursing, is extremely pleased with them.

We also are purchasing three new TVs for the wards. We continually supply items to the hospital, ranging from Versacare Beds (hi tech) at about $13,000 each (I think we

have supplied about seven to date), to wheelchairs and many smaller items that assist the staff and patients.

We also supply annual subscriptions to two magazines for distribution around the hospital.

Our President, Val Bridger, and her husband Geoff have a beautiful dog called Lucy who is a Delta Care dog and, after training, she is an official hospital visitor to cheer up patients at Maleny Hospital.

There are several instances of great results when patients have interacted with Lucy.

The Auxiliary’s next meeting is July 19 in the Downunder Meeting Room at the hospital. Visitors are always welcome and afternoon tea is provided.

Energy Levels – How Are Yours ?

I

N ORDER TO BALANCE fitness and health and prevent functional illness, your body needs to generate large amounts of energy. When this doesn’t happen, you will get a symptom – FATIGuE. This is one of the most common complaints I hear. The fatigue may be physical or mental or both.

Over time, fatigue will make you unwell. If you feel that physically you are struggling to get through the day and mentally that clear thinking and decision making are becoming more difficult, then it is up to you to change that and make it better. I can help with that.

When you’re constantly tired the first thing you have to do is find out why, and that means learning not only where your energy comes from, but how to maximise its production.

Energy of course comes from the food you eat – for most people this means a combination of proteins, fats and carbohydrates. What you have to learn is what works best for you. Keep in mind that FATS can provide you with more than twice the energy you get from either carbohydrates or protein.

It is clear that to maximise your energy levels and stop the fatigue, you must reprogram your body to BuRN FAT. Most people who are tired, rely on too much carbohydrate and sugar (often as much as 80 – 90%). This means that fat, since it is not burnt, is stored in and on the body, resulting in weight gain, obesity and further health problems – blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, heart problems.

Fix the fatigue factor as soon as you can. Learn to maximise body energy. You’ll start to really like the way you feel and look.

I’m looking forward to hearing from you.

Ayurvedic Health Advice to Suit You

The Guru

P

EOPLE IN WESTERN society are generally suspicious of gurus and associate them with leading people Wendy Rosenfeldt astray and brain washing them into handing over sums of money.

A guru is a spiritual teacher and as in any other profession or vocation there will be fraudulent ones as well as authentic ones. uncertainty and suspicion arise due to the fact that their area of expertise lies outside what we are brought up with or taught at school. Their wisdom has both a mystical awe and ambiguity about it.

Talking about enlightenment and higher states of consciousness can seem like a foreign country if you have had no experience of it. Pragmatic types may wonder what the point of self-realisation is.

Coupled with the idea that anything associated with teaching spirituality should be free, gurus seeking financial remuneration are treated with distrust. We are comfortable paying for the services of counsellors, life coaches and teachers but when it comes to meditation, suspicion is aroused when money is mentioned.

The main purpose of the Guru is not about telling you what you should do but about showing you how to find your own truth, how to get to a state of awareness where you are self-sufficient.

Many great spiritual teachers expound on the experience of enlightenment, detailing how someone should live in this state.

However knowing that we will live life in cosmic alignment doesn’t actually helps us to get there.

It is the technique to help you get there that is invaluable.

Maharishi Mahesh Yogi taught Transcendental Meditation to thousands of people worldwide and then trained teachers to pass on the practice in its purity. Without the practical experience of unity Consciousness all the descriptions of enlightenment are nothing more than inspirational.

The experience of transcending takes us to that level of life where everything is unified, the mind and the body, the individual and the universe, and at the same time allows the body to throw of deep rooted stress and tension that stops us from maintaining this expanded state when we come out.

It is a profoundly practical technique as it improves health, optimises brain functioning and allows us to access more abstract levels of thinking. This strengthens intuition because the experience of deeper levels of the mind allows us to recall and process experiences that would otherwise be lost in the subconscious.

The more in touch we are with ourselves the less likely we are to fall prey to charlatans or get caught up in delusions about life.

It all comes back to experience. If the guru gives a practical way to improve life it is worth more than all the wise words in the world.

If you are following anyone purely on the point of view of faith then it is good to question the value of what you are being told.

Wendy Rosenfeldt is a Teacher of Transcendental Meditation and a Maharishi Ayurvedic health practitioner.

Bacteria friend and foe

R

ECENT RESEARCH HAS shown what an important role our gut microflora plays in not just maintaining our immune system, protecting us from the flu but also in helping us to maintain a balanced state of mind and emotion. We all know the feeling we have when our gut is bloated and our bowel or stomach is “off”. usually this is due to our diet, sometimes because we have eaten something that we know is not in alignment with creating good healthy digestion.

Processed or fast food certainly confers this experience every time. Sometimes the emotions we feel when we are eating, such as anger or frustration negatively affect the chemistry our body secretes which is necessary for good digestion, or even just the fact that we’re rushed and so don’t make use of the digestive enzymes in our saliva and bolt our food down without properly chewing it.

Our microflora is also affected by the things we don’t realize are being done to our food before we eat it, one such case is the way chicken is cleansed of bacteria by immersion in a chlorine bath, I believe fish are as well. There is also the chlorine that is added to our drinking water to sterilize it against harmful bacteria. Chlorine intake has been associated with heart disease, impaired fat metabolism, imbalanced hormone activity and

certainly the death of necessary bacteria in our intestines which are there to perform multiple functions all of which are designed to enhance our general immunity and well being.

The association between good and bad oral health and bacteria has also been well researched and has been shown to negatively affect cardiovascular health, inflammatory diseases, migrate through the body and even powerfully contribute to the susceptibility of an increased risk of various cancers.

Regular brushing of teeth, flossing, care of gum health, tongue cleansing first thing in the morning, as well as being mindful of sound digestive practices helps to optimize good oral health which effects the entire body.

Wash your food well, use a good water purifier, eat some cultured food, such as healthy unsweetened organic yoghurt or other naturally fermented food. And as an added bonus to your body take a good probiotic supplement which will not only benefit your gastrointestinal microflora but your whole body and also your mental and emotional health.

ADVERTORIAL

Reconceptualising Pain P

HYSIOTHERAPISTS DEAL daily with the issue of chronic, or long-standing pain, it is usually the main complaint when clients present to the clinic. Pain is a critical protective device.

"Pain depends on how much danger your brain thinks you are in, often not how much danger you are actually in."

Pain is designed to get you out of trouble. However, pain and the amount of tissue damage occurring often do not relate. An example of this would be a person feeling neck pain/headache driving past the spot where they sustained a whiplash injury in a motor vehicle accident years before.

It is not so much tissue/cellular injury causing the pain response. The person essentially feels threatened. Here, many other output systems such as the motor, memory, emotion, visual, sensory, autonomic and immune system to name a few are working together, allowing us to escape danger, cope or heal.

The Neuro Orthopaedic Institute (NOI Group) based in Adelaide is an independent international group of Physiotherapists dedicated to research and education in pain. Current research encompasses a biological (neuroscience) and psychosocial paradigm to help 'Explain Pain'.

Over the past years, many Medical and Allied Health Professionals, including our Physiotherapists at Maleny Physiotherapy have attended their courses in an effort to improve clinical outcomes – for patients, therapists and the clinical team.

As we continue to learn more about pain, some of our physiotherapy treatment strategies and techniques have developed and changed and new language or dialogue to educate our clients has emerged.

“It’s my L5 disc, it is slipped!” The language we use builds very strong images in our minds of pain and dysfunction.

This sounds like the back is unstable, unreliable and dangerous. As clinicians we often examine spines that have radiological evidence of disc disease, but the spinal level named is not the structure/level causing pain! Metaphors are commonly used to express how we feel about pain and its effect. This too, gives us clues as clinicians as to how to help our patients.

For more reading, visit www.noigroup.com or come in and see Tim or Mary Bagshaw at Maleny Physiotherapy and discuss and learn something about ‘Explain Pain’. We will add more articles in this column from time to time to expand on this topic.
