Maleny River Centre businesses hold “Biggest Morning Tea”

Australia's Biggest Morning Tea is a community event that is held on May 25th that raises vital funds to make a big difference for those impacted by cancer. The Maleny Riverside Businesses hosted their morning tea at the Centre.

Sadly, all of us will be impacted by cancer at some point in our lives, and this is exactly what inspires so many of our communities to host a Biggest Morning Tea to raise funds for cancer research.

Unfortunately, 1 in 2 Australians are diagnosed with cancer before the age of 85.

Australia's Biggest Morning Tea usually falls on the last Thursday of May each year and has done so since 1994 raising millions of dollars for the Cancer Council of Australia.

The businesses in the Maleny Riverside Shopping Centre held their first Biggest Morning Tea on May 25th and set a target of raising at least $5000.00. The latest total reached got to $6148,00 with more still coming in.

Organiser Jim Goulton of Maleny Jewellers said that all the Riverside businesses had come together to host this important event. The businesses donated about $2,000 of amazing prices to be won in the various raffles drawn on the day. This event was so successful because of the amazing Maleny District community spirit!”

Investment in research has helped increase cancer survival rates from 49% in the 1980s to 69% today. Because of research, more people are surviving cancer than ever before. And every day, brilliant Australian researchers are working to unlock more of cancer’s secrets.

In Australia, around 930 women are expected to be diagnosed with cervical cancer this year alone. It is hoped that research will eliminate cervical cancer in Australia by as early as 2028.

Maleny Singers Present

Maleny Singers this year present something a bit different in a Short Dramatic Opera by Pietro Mascagni, 'Cavalleria Rusticana’.

Pietro Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana’ was the most spectaculay opera of his career.

The story is of betrayal and revenge - set in Sicily, the action centres around local ex-soldier, Turiddu who is secretly romancing the vivacious Lola who is the wife, however, of big-shot mafioso businessman, Alfio. Then there is the jilted girlfriend Santuzza, this all adds to the drama.

Another first for us is our collaboration with Kim Kirkman and The Inspiration Project Choir. Of course we also have the backing of the 30piece magnificent Maleny Performing Arts Orchestra to be conducted by the talented Kim Kirkman.

The performance will be presented as a dramatised 'concert' including a story narration so you can keep up with the drama of the piece.

We introduce some new singers along with many of your favourite locals as well.

The Opera is presented in two parts lasting approximately 1.5hrs including interval.

It will be held on June 10th - 11th - 17th and 18th June at 3p.m. at the Maleny Community Centre. Tickets are available at the Maleny Information Centre, at the door or online at:

Maleny Show Year Unknown! “Maleny Show-grounds hosting Shows for 100 years”

The Maleny Agricultural Show has been held on the same grounds since inception in 1923. The photo below shows just how the ground. facilities have changed in that 100 years, mostly since the 1970’s.

Who remembers the old typewriter?

The QWERTY keyboard layout, developed for typewriters in the 1870s, remains de facto standard for computer keyboards. Many people would remember typing lessons at school when you would be forced to wear a “bib” to stop you seeing the keys thus learning their position without looking.

In 1927 the first Show Ball was held in the Maleny School of Arts to honour the hardworking pioneers of the district. This year’s show, being held today (June 2nd) marks 100 years since the first show.

Around Glass house Electorate with Mr

Andrew Powell

M.P.

Landsborough Rail to light up the town!!!

Queensland Rail are building a 350 space car park at Landsborough, and concerns are mounting as Queensland Rail have flagged already that they will not adopt dark sky lighting consistent with the Australian Government National Light pollution Guidelines, the Sunshine Coast Urban Lighting Master Plan, the Guidelines of the Australasian Dark Sky Alliance or the International Dark Sky Association.

The Sunshine Coast hinterland is the LAST area of coastal South East Queensland that is not heavily light polluted and its dark skies are highly valued by its residents and visitors.

Sunshine Cost Council have raised the concern with Queensland Rail but it seems Queensland Rail do not wish to incorporate dark sky policies into their new build even at this early stage.

Every inappropriate light contributes to light pollution that spreads over 300kms from its source. Maleny Observatories astronomist Dr Ken Wishaw once again is heading the community to support our

neighbouring town of Landsborough in their appeal to Queensland Rail to implement dark sky policies.

There is a growing number of visitors coming to the hinterland specifically to enjoy the night sky, that has the potential to become a significant tourism drawcard. If the car park and the ongoing long term upgrading of the northern rail line use inappropriate lighting, all this is at risk. .

Andrew Powell is aware of this latest news and the feeling is that community pressure is needed to help his investigations at the state government level.

Please consider letting Andrew Powell MP, an enthusiastic supporter of dark sky initiatives, of your concern and support to make a change at the QR development at

Glass.House@parliament.qld.gov.au and there is also a feed-back link for QR at https://translink.com.au/contact-us/feedback

MP for Fisher

Defence Strategic Review & Australia's Strategic Future

The long-awaited Defence Strategic Review (“DSR”) has been touted by the Federal Labor Government as the most significant review in 40 years. Unfortunately, the public version of the Government’s response to the DSR will effectively gut the Australian Army.

The Government’s push to realise long-range strike capability, while in itself a good thing, comes at the expense of hundreds of Infantry Fighting Vehicles which were set to replace the 60-year-old M113 armoured personnel carriers which saw service in Vietnam. No war has ever been won purely in the air and at sea. In 2023, the domains of land, space and cyber have never been more important. A credible fighting infantry supported by

armour and artillery is essential. The gutting of 321 IFVs from 450 to 129 units will leave Australia’s infantry exposed, as will the decision to cut two regiments of self-propelled Howitzers down to one.

I welcome the Government’s decision to implement a National Defence Strategy, though I’m concerned that we won’t see it until June 2024. At the same time, I’m calling for a whole-of-nation National Security Strategy.

The Government has also missed an opportunity to establish a standalone statutory parliamentary committee for defence, much like the PJCIS, which would allow for greater probity and accountability without risking the compromise of defence intelligence. It just shows that, once again, our Labor is putting our strategic future at risk

Vandalism closes Mount Beerwah to the public

Vandals have used a power tool to cut graffiti into a section of the rock face near the base of the summit route on Mt Beerwah.

Glass House Mountain park rangers found the damage on May 20th, when they discovered a rock at the base of Mt Beerwah had been defaced with the words “Jesus Saves, Just Ask”. Mount Beerwah is registered as a Significant Aboriginal Area for the Jinibaras peoples.

The Queensland Parks and Wildlife Service, with the support of the Jinibara People, is temporarily closing Mount Beerwah to allow for repairs and reparations and cultural healing of the site.

Visitors are advised to observe all signage, barriers and to not enter closed areas.

Queensland Police Service and QPWS are investigating this incident and are asking for anyone with information to call the department on (07) 5494 3983, or make an anonymous call on 1300 130 372.

You’ll pay more for your electricity from July 1st

A decision has been made by The Australian Energy Regulator on electricity prices as from July 1st, 2023. This decision means that Queenslanders are set get an average increase of approximately $350 per annum which is up about 22%.

Queenslanders with a concession card, on the pension or are receiving family tax benefits A and B will qualify for a $500 rebate. The annual bill for a typical residential customer is expected to be in the vicinity of $1800 - $2000 per annum.

Wholesale power prices soared to record levels in 2022 following Russia's invasion of Ukraine and a surging global demand for fossil fuels and a number of plant and equipment outages at Australian coal plants.

Customers really need to shop around and call the retailer.

Electric Vehicles are becoming more common on Queensland roads, even in Maleny they are more common that a couple of years ago with a number of Tesla fully electric vehicles seen daily around town.

There are many benefits of electric vehicles (EVs) over conventional petrol or diesel cars. The main benefits are said to be that a “Battery Electric Vehicle” has fewer moving parts than a conventional petrol/diesel car. Servicing is relatively easy, less frequent and overall cheaper than a petrol/diesel vehicle. An electric vehicle has zero exhaust emissions, but still creates a degree of greenhouse gas emissions when it is charged from the electricity grid. These can be reduced if charged from a home solar system.

Electric vehicles (EVs) have gained significant traction in recent years, promising a greener, more sustainable future for transportation. With the mounting concerns over climate change and the depletion of fossil fuels, EVs have emerged as a viable solution to reduce carbon emissions and create a cleaner environment. In this article we attempt to explores the future of electric vehicles, analysing the advancements, challenges, and potential implications for the automotive industry and the world.

Advancements in Electric Vehicle Technology

The future of electric vehicles lies in the continuous advancements in technology, especially in battery technology. The development of highperformance batteries, particularly lithium-ion batteries, has been instrumental in enhancing the driving range and charging efficiency of EVs. However, research is underway to create even more efficient and cost-effective battery technologies, such as solid-state batteries and lithium-sulphur batteries, which could significantly

Self-driving EVs can optimise energy consumption, improve traffic flow, and enhance safety on the roads. With the integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, EVs of the future will become more intelligent, capable of learning driver habits and optimising performance for maximum efficiency.

Infrastructure Development:

One of the key challenges hindering the widespread adoption of electric vehicles is the lack of a robust charging infrastructure. However, significant efforts are being made globally to address this issue. Governments, businesses, and organisations are investing heavily in building charging networks, including high-power fastcharging stations and wireless charging technologies.

Furthermore, innovative solutions such as vehicleto-grid (V2G) technology are being explored. V2G enables EVs to discharge excess stored energy back into the grid during peak demand, effectively transforming EVs into mobile power sources. This bidirectional energy flow can create a more resilient and sustainable energy system.

Environmental and Health Benefits:

The future of electric vehicles promises a substantial reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution. By replacing internal combustion engine vehicles with EVs, we can significantly mitigate the harmful effects of transportation-related emissions. Electric vehicles

produce zero tailpipe emissions, leading to improved air quality and reduced respiratory illnesses.

Additionally, the shift to EVs reduces dependence on fossil fuels, which are finite resources associated with geopolitical conflicts and price volatility. By embracing electric mobility, nations can enhance energy independence and create a more stable and sustainable energy ecosystem.

Economic Opportunities

The transition to electric vehicles offers significant economic opportunities. The EV industry is expected to generate millions of jobs worldwide, ranging from manufacturing and assembly to research and development of new technologies. This industry growth will also spur innovation and attract investments in renewable energy sources and battery production.

Moreover, electric vehicles can contribute to energy grid stability. As more EVs are connected to the grid, they can act as decentralised energy storage units, helping to balance fluctuations in renewable energy generation and improve grid resilience.

Challenges and Potential Solutions

Despite the promising future, several challenges must be addressed for electric vehicles to reach their full potential. These include the high initial costs, limited driving range, longer charging times, and the environmental impact of battery production and disposal.

To overcome these challenges, governments can implement supportive policies, such as financial incentives, tax breaks, and subsidies, to make EVs more affordable for consumers. The Queensland Government offers some incentives to encourage purchases of electric only vehicles and those can be found at the web site:

https://www.qrida.qld.gov.au/program/queenslandzero-emission-vehicle-rebate-scheme

Investments in research and development can accelerate breakthroughs in battery technology, leading to cost reductions and increased energy density. Collaborations between automakers, battery manufacturers, and charging infrastructure providers can streamline the development and deployment of electric vehicles.

Conclusion

The future of electric vehicles is poised for remarkable growth and transformation. Advancements in technology, infrastructure development, environmental benefits, economic opportunities, and concerted efforts from stakeholders will be the driving forces behind the widespread adoption of electric vehicles.

As we shift towards a sustainable revolution in transportation, electric vehicles hold the key to a greener, cleaner, and more energy-efficient future. By embracing this transformative shift, we can mitigate climate change, improve air quality, enhance energy independence, and create a better world for generations to come.

Not everything is good for electric vehicles. The expected life of an EV's battery pack is between 10 and 12 years and at this stage their replacement is expensive.

Right from the start there is an amount of greenhouse gasses and emissions produced in the making of the vehicle and even more from the making of the battery. Is this enough to off set the total emissions over the life of the vehicle?

Charging from the grid will also produce harmful emissions, unless it is charged exclusively from solar power direct. There is a long way to go in developing electric vehicles for efficiency..

Maleny Players Next Production!

We’re excited to be bringing you 'Dancing with Lughnasa' by Brian Friel- and Directed by Andrew Wallace. Dancing at Lughnasa is a 1990 play set in a cottage in County Donegal in 1936. It’s a household of five unmarried sisters who would all like to be married. The youngest has an illegitimate son, the eldest tries to keep preserve family respectability. But now the father of the child re-appears, full of seductive charm, while an elder brother has just returned after decades working as a priest in Africa and is strangely changed.

In the back hills there are still lingering pagan rituals, Lugh (pronounced ‘Loo’) being the ancient Celtic god of the harvest. The rhythms of family life play out against broader social tensions and economic hardship. You will enjoy meeting these fundamentally good-hearted and resilient people.

At Friday evening performances you are invited to come along at 6pm to purchase a bowl of Irish stew to enjoy whilst being entertained with music on the veranda at the Playhouse.

Please purchase your tickets early to avoid disappointment.

We look forward to seeing you at the Playhouse.

Take care wit re-chargeable batteries!

Lithium-ion batteries are becoming more important to the day to day living conditions of all Australians.

Unfortunately, there have been more than 450 fires in Australia have been linked to the batteries over the past 18 months. Over-charging, over-heating, physical damage or even defects in the manufacturing process, could all cause a lithium-ion battery to ignite. Never charge electric scooters or bikes indoors.

You should not use batteries showing signs of swelling, overheating or damage. Lithium-ion batteries can reignite hours, days or even weeks later after being extinguished.

Home owners needed to safely manage lithium-ion batteries. It is important to always follow the manufacturer instructions and guidelines in respect to the handling of lithium-ion batteries.

An Old Codger’s Thoughts & Opinions

Are the people off the Sunshine Coast being rated as second class? Deputy Premier Steven Miles has announced that there have been 1100 new land blocks approved and are now available at Caloundra South and Aura but can’t say if a major rail upgrade will be done by 2032.

The first planning for this rail line which includes just 37km to connect Maroochydore, Caloundra and Beerwah to Brisbane was was allegedly completed in 2001 but consideration has not been finalised as at this time. How long does it take?

This line was used as one carrot by Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk to attract votes to gain the 2032 Olympic Games in Brisbane. Now, according to Deputy Premier Steven Miles this might not be built by that time. This would just be but one more projects promised to gain political points then not provided.

The Sunshine Coast’s population is expected to increase by some 120,000 in the next 20 years.

The suburb of Aura is now closer to the goal of 20,000 homes which is anticipated to home about 69,000 people. For this number of new homes, the lack of decent public transport means car dependency becomes the norm thus creating traffic chaos, both within the southern Sunshine Coast area and on the main highway between Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast.

Caloundra Road often turns into a frustrating carpark as more than 32,000 cars per day are using that roadway with an increasing number of 1100 of daily trips being experienced..

Between 7.15am – 9.15am and 3.45pm to 5.45pm when cars were banked up at the Aura roundabout in all directions leading to the main Sunshine Coast motorway.

All of this extra traffic has a flow-on effect on hinterland residents who have to also travel to Brisbane. Building more roads has little remedial effect on traffic density as by the time the new section is completed the traffic volume has continued to increase.

The immediate duplication of the Sunshine Coast heavy rail system to Gympie with an extension through Aura, Caloundra and onto Maroochydore is one way to help ease the density of local traffic volume.

This will also help to reduce emissions from vehicles thus assisting with reducing the affects of climate change because as traffic congestion increases, so too do fuel consumption and CO2 emissions..

Truthful tells us that his neighbour’s wife, Kathleen Murphy was standing vigil over her husband's death bed. As she held his hand, her warm tears ran silently down her face, splashed onto his face, and roused him from his slumber. He looked up and his pale lips began to move slightly.

“My darling Kathleen,” he whispered. “Hush, my love,” she said. “Go back to sleep. Shhh, don't talk.”

But he was insistent. “Kathleen,” he said in his tired voice. “I have to talk. I have something I must confess to you.”

“There's nothing to confess,” replied the weeping Kathleen. “It's all right. Everything's all right, go to sleep now.”

“No, no. I must die in peace, Kathleen. I slept with your sister, your best friend, and your mother.”

Kathleen mustered a pained smile and stroked his hand. “Hush now Patrick, don't torment yourself. I know all about it,” she said. “Why do you think I poisoned you?”

In the last two issues I have been discussing the requirements of a valid Will. I thought it would be a good opportunity to continue the train of thought with what could happen should you die without a valid will. If a person dies without a valid Will, that person is said to have died “intestate”.

Dying without a valid will or ‘intestate’ can be very detrimental to your loved ones and also very expensive. Not only have you given away your ability to decide how your estate is to be distributed and to whom but you also run the risk of the costs of administering your estate increasing drastically and your estate being distributed to unintended beneficiaries.

One example of an unintended beneficiary is an estranged spouse from whom the deceased was not formally divorced. That estranged spouse will share in the deceased’s estate under the Queensland intestacy rules despite the deceased and the estranged spouse not being in a relationship at the time of death.

DYING WITHOUT A WILL: WHAT HAPPENS?

The Succession Act sets out the rules to be applied in situations of intestacy. Here are some examples:

• If you are married/de facto with no children, your spouse takes 100%;

• If you are married/de facto with one child your spouse takes the first $150,000.00 plus the household contents. Assets after this are divided equally between the spouse and the child

• If you are married/de facto with two or more children your spouse takes the first $150,000.00 plus the household contents. Assets after this are divided 1/3 for the spouse and 2/3 equally between the children.

In situations where you do not have any close relatives the rules provide that your estate must go to relatives that are further removed from you.

Another problem with dying intestate is the need for court

For the team at Easton Lawyers it is a privilege to help people through tough and stressful times and if the client cannot come to them this is no obstacle as home visits and/or hospital visits are a service they provide.

approval for the appointment of someone to administer your estate. In a will you would appoint an executor of your choice. However with an intestacy, your loved ones would have to apply to the Supreme Court for an administrator to be appointed. In the absence of a suitable person the Supreme Court may appoint the Public Trustee.

If you are considering a trust or company, please seek legal advice before taking action. Should you have any questions please contact our office on 07 5494 3511 Monday to Friday between 08:30 and 17:00 AEST. Take

The Hinterlandgrapevine Online News Travelling Jackaroo “Getting to the Top”

“Back on the road” ….. continuing on with my mission!

Made it to the world famous Betoota Hotel. The Betoota Hotel is located a relatively short 170 kilometres east of Birdsville in far south-west Queensland.

It’s truely a unique pub in how it’s old fashioned and the way you’d want a bush pub to be. if you’re travelling out to Birdsville, or even just on the way near there make sure you call in and say Gday, you’ll regret it if you don’t.

There’s some amazing vintage vehicles at the Betoota Hotel. As a history nut I was in absolute heaven. It is well worth a stopover to have a look on your way past that’s for sure.

The Betoota Pub is honestly in my top 5 pubs in Australia that I’ve been to so far. It’s family owned and honestly from the second you walk through the door you feel welcome.

I recently ran into Mary the founder of “Are You Bogged Mate?” in Birdsville, Queensland.

“Are You Bogged Mate?” is a rural men’s mental health charity that starts a conversation with the broader community about the rising issue of depression and suicide rates among men in rural Australia.

The founder of this amazing organisation is Mary who travels anywhere in the country spreading the message & talking about mental health in a very Aussie bloke kind of way. Check her out at:

The dirt track you take to get there is a few kms off the main road and you come across this beautiful pub on the hill. The building is almost 100 years old and it’s age is shown beautifully. The front bar is historic and iconic, and in the back section there’s the dinner area where they make home cooked feeds that are amazing.

proposed route - Maleny to Maleny!

Elaman Creek Bridge 1928

This photo is of the Elaman Creek Bridge on the occasion of official opening on the 13th October, 1928

The wooden traffic bridge was officially opened by the Main Roads Commission, Mr Kemp. It spanned Elaman Creek on the Maleny - Kenilworth Road, some ten miles from Maleny and was 'in the main survey route of the Great National Highway to connect Brisbane and Gympie as a road’.

Official guests included the Mayor of Brisbane, Alderman William Jolly, and the Chairman and councillors of the Landsborough Council.

The bridge was partly washed away by flood water during 1946 and was subsequently replaced during the winter months of 1994.
