Fashion: new looks from Keegan Hunt

As we were preparing this issue of MetroWest we marked the winter solstice—the shortest day of the year—and the wintry weather really kicked in. How convenient, then, that we’d planned this issue for our ski feature! Up in the mountains the skies are heavy and the pundits are predicting one of the biggest early snowfalls in years. We profile Andrew Dwyer, the general manager of the Ski Club of Victoria and a lifelong devotee of the Australian outdoor lifestyle, whether that’s in the high-country snow or in the bakinghot outback desert. We also take a look at ski destinations locally and internationally, and get some fitness tips for pre-snow training.

Ted Tan’s Mum’s house in by Elaine Sharman

Hi, I am Ted Tan the shoodle. I am dressed for the occasion in my batik shirt on the Balinese day-bed in the outdor entertainment area. My mum’s from Singapore and loves to fill the house with broad hints of her heritage—observe the orchid cushions behind me, antique paint brushes on the wall and Chinese porcelains. My favorite piece is the antique Chinese dressing table in the bedroom, with mum’s collection of silk and jade tassles on the wall behind. We have splashes of red everywhere—it’s good luck, you know.

Spotwood

Our home is light, bright and filled to the brim with pretty and precious things mum brings home from her holidays abroad and numerous local shopping expeditions. She just can’t help herself, I will have to put a stop to it soon or we will start to look like a branch of David Wang’s. I hope you have enjoyed us sharing our home with you as much as we enjoy living in this, our colourful happy abode. It is good living in Spotswood. P.S: if you see me at the local park please stop and say hello!

design

Custom screens from Rada Living Design Rada Living Design started out mainly as a wholesale business from small premises in Seddon, where proprietor Greg Anderson imported antique furnishings from Java. ‘From chairs and statues we started bringing in big wooden doors and other paneling,’ says Greg, and the focus of the business began to shift. Now while he still imports, much of Rada’s business is in custom-made screens, which are individually laser-cut and made to a client’s 6

exact requirements. ‘People bring in a sketch, or a pattern they like, even a leaf they’ve picked up, I turn them into designs and the computer cuts them out,’ says Greg. Many are made from Weathertex, an Australian-invented material that is a compressed product made from hardwood waste products. ‘It’s tough, weatherproof, very adaptable and completely sustainable,’ says Greg. Other products used by Rada for screens vary from steel and aluminium to MDF

and Lucatex: ‘we choose the material to suit the client’s taste and the requirements of the design’, says Greg. The finished product can be as small or as big as the job demands, and Rada screens get used in gardens, against fences, in pubs and restaurants, as interior design features … it’s all up to the customer. Visit Rada’s new showroom in Maribynong near Bunnings to see a full range and speak to Greg about your custom, one-off design.

Andrew Dwyer: outdoors man

by Tim Coronel

While he grew up in Melbourne, the outdoors has always been a part of Andrew Dwyer’s life, whether it’s the snow-capped high-country mountains or the Outback desert. When he was 10 years old Andrew started spending winters at Mt Buffalo, where his Czech immigrant godfather ran the skiing chalet. From there it was into a career in hotels and tourism, always with a touch of adventure. ‘Food’s always been a huge part of my life,’ Andrew says, ‘as is a love of the outdoors.’ After a number of seasons as a ski instructor, working and partying in resorts here and overseas, Andrew and his wife Jane settled at Jamieson in the Victorian high country and set up the Diamantina Touring Company, showing small groups of guests some of the most beautiful and remote locations in Australia. ‘An army marches on its stomach,’ says Andrew, ‘and I had this mad idea that although we were camping we should be serving good food out in remote locations.’ After a few disastrous early experiments, he hit on the best ways to transport, preserve and cook the finest of

ingredients even in the wildest of places. ‘I worked out that fire is the very best medium you can cook on, ranging from intense heat for roasting to lovely slow simmers in ash.’ Andrew has now had three books published featuring his outback cooking recipes and ‘campfire stories’, and has been a TV regular on The Great Outdoors and a number of other travel and food shows around the world. And now he’s added a new hat to this busy life, running the Ski Club of Victoria (SCV) and its Mt Buller headquarters, centred on the The Ivor Whittaker Memorial Lodge, better know at ‘The Whitt’. ‘Skiing was always very dear to me but hadn’t intended to take on the SCV job. Winter I’m usually in the Outback leading tours across the desert, so it’s a real change for me to be on Mt Buller for the whole winter!’ ‘The Whitt is a unique place,’ says Andrew, ‘developed with a bequest from an SCV member who died in WWII. It’s a real old-fashioned ski lodge, rustic and a bit eccentric. It’s always been the hub of Mt Buller life. We’ve got in a really good chef, we’re restocking the bar and generally

shaking things up.’ It’s the perfect time for a spot of rejuvenation, as SCV is celebrating its 90th anniversary this winter, and the club is going strong, always looking for new members to share its extensive facilities and offering a welcoming, strong club atmosphere. ‘There’s nowhere else quite like Australia to ski,’ Andrew says ‘with the snowgums, native animals, there’s always a touch of the frontier’. He is upbeat about the future for ski resorts, despite concerns about climate change. ‘We always have good seasons and bad seasons, and resorts are investing in sustainable snowmaking, as well as paying increasing attention to “the green season” to offer yearround activities.’ As we spoke to Andrew he was on his way to a Tourism Victoria board meeting, where he is part of the team that oversees Victoria’s regional tourism, major events, and local and international marketing. ‘I’m regarded as a bit of tourism veteran now, although I don’t feel old,’ he says. ‘As long as I’m sharing my love of the outdoors with as many people as I can, I’ll be happy.

International Students:

Why Use an Education Placement Service? By Chan Lai Hoong of New Careers Australia When we meet with international students about to graduate from a Bachelor’s degree program, they often debate whether they should go back to their home country or undertake further study in Australia via a postgraduate degree. Some students are also unsure which postgraduate degree to take. If you want to stay in Australia and continue studying, using a qualified and established consultancy with an education placement service to guide you offers numerous advantages. Education placement agents are in a partnership with universities, just as a travel agency is a partner with airlines. We are trusted representatives selected by these institutions to promote their courses. Professional education agents in Australia work according to the codes of conduct set by the Australian government. This is how you can rest assured your education agent is always working with integrity. We’re often asked what we charge for placing a student in an education institution. When we tell these people our service is free, we sometimes see sceptical looks on their faces. They then ask us what we get out of helping them. 10

It doesn’t matter to us which school you decide to go to. We look at what each student wants, needs, and which matches their entry requirement level, and then find suitable options for you to choose from. The code of conduct stipulates that under no condition can we as agents mislead a student. Each education agent is trained and only selected by an institution after rigorous referee checks.

a much better understanding of each school, course, and program. You won’t have to waste precious time doing this research on your own. Each year we receive training from the institutions to let us know about next year’s courses ahead of time. We’re told about any new courses planned, which courses were cancelled, and whether there have been changes in entry requirements or curriculum.

The benefits of education placement A good education agent has hundreds of education institutions on their side. We’ll look at your aspirations and check the schools you like first, exploring all of your options. We’ll then customise the courses we present you with, as we know each person has unique needs, and different budgets—tuition fees can vary quite a lot. By using an education agency you are often able to have your school application fees waived and save money. Let’s say you apply for four different schools— you may have all four fees waived. This can amount to several hundred dollars in savings.

A smooth, trouble-free application We talk to the right people at each school, as we have channels of communication set in place. This ensures a fast response time. We hear so many stories of students who couldn’t find the correct person to talk to on their own. If you need help with obtaining a new graduate student visa, we can also show you the best options, which documents you’ll need, and all of the related costs.

recipes I am food Eating your way to health

Anthia Koullouros, published by Penguin Lantern RRP$39.99.

Anthia Koullouros—naturopath, herbalist and organic lifestyle educator—has helped people find health and happiness for over twenty years. Anthea educates and inspires people to take care of their minds and bodies with natural, sustainable solutions. Simple, nourishing, traditional dietary foundations

underscore her philosophy of eating food that's best for one’s body, soul and the planet. This is Anthia’s first book on a healthy, sensible approach to food and removing pre-prepared and processed foods from your diet. The book includes shopping lists, meal planners, expert tips as well as more than eighty recipes and detailed dietary tips. I Am Food also prescribes herbal teas and other ‘food as medicine’ for ailments ranging from allergies to stress and provides everyone with the knowledge they need to live a happy, healthy and balanced life.

If you crave salty, savoury foods and can ravage a bag of crisps or crackers in one sitting, then this healthy alternative is not only good for you, but will also satisfy your cravings. Eat the biscuits just as they are or serve as part of a dessert cheese plate with cheese, fresh pear slices and pate.

Parmesan Biscuits Makes about 18 PREP TIME: 15 minutes COOKING TIME: 25 minutes

2 cups (20g) almond meal or ground activated almonds 2 teaspoons Tuscan Herb & Spice Blend (or sweet paprika and cayenne pepper, to taste) 1 teaspoon fine natural salt 1 cup (80g) very finely grated aged parmesan cheese 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, more if needed 1 egg white, lightly beaten 1. Preheat the oven to 200oC (fan-forced). Line a large baking tray with baking paper. 2. Place all the ingredients in a bowl and combine with your hands until a moist, moderately sticky dough forms (add more water or oil if you need it) 3. Using oiled hands, place the dough on the prepared tray and flatten with the palm of your hand. Press the dough out evenly unil quite thin. If it cracks, simply press it back together with moist fingers. 4. Reduce the oven temperature to 180oC and bake on the centre shelf for 20–25 minutes until set and golden. Remove and cool on a wire rack. When the dough has cooled, cut it into pieces or break it apart for a random jagged effect. They are not super crisp, and are quite tender. For a crisper cracker, bake in a 180oC oven for 5–7 minutes just before serving. 5. The biscuits will keep in an airtight container for up to two days, so eat them up quickly!

The level of omega-3 oils found in canned tuna is highly variable, as canning methods destroy much of the omega-3 oils in the fish. This is my alternative. It is an old Italian recipe I recall from my Italian neighbours when I was a child—the fragrant oil gently infuses with flavour as well as preserving the tuna. Some species of tuna are overfished, and wild tuna is always preferable to farmed. Due to their high position in the food chain, there is an abundant accumulation of heavy metals in tuna. By all means enjoy it, but eat it sparingly.

Tuna fillet in a jar SERVES 2 PREP TIME 5 minutes COOKING TIME 5 minutes

olive oil, for cooking and to cover 2 x 200 g tuna steaks, bloodline trimmed 1 bay leaf 5 black peppercorns 1 lemon cut into wedges

1. Warm a frying pan over low–medium heat and add about three tablespoons of oilive oil. When warm, place the tuna steaks in the pan and cook just for a minute or so until they change colour. Turn them over and cook the other side—the middle will still be raw. Remove the pan from the heat and cover with a lid for five minutes. The tuna will continue to cook in the residual heat. 2. Put the bay leaf, peppercorns and lemon wedges in a meduim sterilised jar, add the tuna and fill with enough olive oil to cover the tuna. Tightly close the lid and store in the fridge for up to four days. Just flake off what you want as you need it. The tuna is delicious in a salad or as part of a finger food plate. TIPS: Add your favourite herbs and spices to the jar to infuse the oil and tuna. Try chilli, lemon and garlic cloves or a teaspoon of Tuscan Herb & Spice Blend or dried oegano, basil and marjoram, to taste. STERILISING JARS Preheat the oven to 120oC(fan-forced). Wash the jars and lids in hot soapy water, then rinse and place on a sturdy baking tray (except plastic lids or rubber seals). Dry well with a clean tea towel before use.

food & drink

whisky a go-go When we think of whisky, we usually think of Scotch, and there is also American bourbon, Irish whiskey and a few from Canada and Japan that aficionados can name. But now more whisky drinkers are becoming aware of Australia’s long distilling tradition, and of some of the world-class single-malts being produced locally in over twenty different distilleries. Tasmania is the centre of Australian whisky production, with distilleries such as Lark, Nant, Hellyers Road and Sullivans Cove. Taking advantage of pure river waters and locally grown grain, these Tasmanian single malts are winning accolades all over the world. Sullivans Cove has recently been named the world’s best single

malt at the World Whiskies Awards and has been praised by world-renowned whisky guru Jim Murray. Nant has also won its fair share of gongs, especially notable as it is one of the younger distilleries and whisky-making is a slow, patient process. At Nant you can invest in your own barrel of whisky, which is left to mature for at least five years before its sponsor can opt have to some or all of it bottled for their personal stock, or sell it back to the distillery with a guaranteed return—a canny investment! Melbourne-based Bakery Hill might operate from an unromantic industrial warehouse, but it produces some fine whiskies and is notable for the purity of its approach: Bakery Hill only uses single casks, bottles at cask strength (usually over 45% alcohol) and does not use chill-filtering or caramel colouring to enhance the

appearance of the whiskies. Western Australia’s Margaret River region is well known for its wines, but there are also distilleries out west that produce whiskies including the Limeburners. And if you thought that peated whiskies were an Islay thing, try the Limeburners peated expression, which uses peat sourced from the nearby Ponogurup Ranges. New Zealand has also produced some fine whiskies. Although none of its distilleries are currently operating, the remaining barrels from the famous Willowbank distillery in Dunedin, which closed in the late 1990s, are carefully stored in a dockside warehouse at Oamaru where they are bottled under the name of The New Zealand Whisky Collection in 15- and 21-year-old expressions.

Ski feat ure

Snow world Many Australian skiers and snowboarders are flying off to explore international mountains in the search for new slopes to conquer. For some itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of a gap-year backpacking adventure, for others a family holiday of a lifetime. A lucky few get to make a lifestyle of it, hopping from country to country to work and play in an eternal winter wonderland.

Japan

There are over 300 ski and snowboarding resorts throughout Japan, spread throughout the main islands from north to south. Nagano, Niseko and Hakuba are just some of the well-known ski destinations. Furano, on the northern island Hokkaido, is an increasingly popular destination for Australian skiers.

"Furano (pictured) regularly receives nine metres of snow each season." Japanese ski fields offer visitors a long season, often stretching from November to May, and a large amount of fine, powder snow. Furano, for example, regularly receives nine metres of snow each season. Many Japanese resorts are renowned for their combination of state-of-theart facilities with a traditional village atmosphere.

New Zealand

Closer to home, Queenstown is the hub for many New Zealandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main ski areas, including Coronet Peak, The Remarkables and Treble Cone. Other NZ ski regions include Aoraki Mt Cook and Mt Hutt. All are easily reached by flying in to Christchurch or Queenstown. If you want a break from the downhill action, all NZ ski areas have plenty of other attractions to offer, from cafes, bars and restaurants to all manner of adventure tourism experiences such as bungee jumping and jet boats. 14

Mt Buller

Let it snow! Every Australian ski season begins with an anxious wait: when will the snow come, and how much will there be? But this year has already got off to a great start, with big snow dumps right across the high country giving all resort areas a kick-start for a great winter. All the major resorts have invested in snowmaking equipment, chairlifts, restaurants and bars and other facilities to offer visitors a full range of activities. They are also increasingly developing non-snow activities and attractions to make them year-round destinations.

Victoria

Victoria’s main ski regions are Mt Buller, Mt Hotham and Falls Creek. All are well-developed resorts with a mix of accommodation options, ranging from backpacker hostels to luxury ski-in/ ski-out lodges and apartment complexes. Buller is closest to Melbourne, about a three-hour drive away via Mansfield. Falls Creek and Hotham are in the heart of the Victorian high country, on the Great Alpine Road. Other areas such as Mt Baw Baw, Lake Mountain, Mt Stirling, Dinner Plain and Mt Donna Buang are popular with cross-country skiers, and families and sightseers after a day of tobogganing and snowball fights.

NSW

North of the Murray are Australia’s highest peaks in the Snowy Mountains. The two main ski areas, Perisher and Thredbo, are close to Australia’s highest mountain, Mt Kosciuzko. Perisher is the largest ski resort in the southern hemisphere, with 47 lifts and its highest peak at over 2000 metres. Thredbo was founded by a consortium of European migrants who were working on the Snowy Mountains Hydro-electric Scheme, and it offers some of the longest and steepest runs in Australia in a village atmosphere reminiscent of a European ski resort.

Canada’s Big White

Big White Ski Resort, Canada’s favorite family resort, is now even easier to get to with Air Canada’s non-stop service from Sydney to Vancouver. Air Canada recently announced it will increase the capacity on the Sydney–Vancouver route to meet the demand of snow-seeking Australians, bringing on 777-300 aircraft. Flying 777s will increase the capacity by 79 seats per day or 553 per week. This is welcoming news for Australian skiers and boarders looking for a winter wonderland holiday featuring guaranteed snow. ‘In the past we’ve met seasonal demand by offering additional flights for short periods in December and January, traditionally the peak periods for Australians 16

visiting Canada's ski fields,’ says Paul McLean, Air Canada’s general manager for Australia and New Zealand, ‘but the decision to replace the current B777-200 with a larger B777-300 between 28 October 2014 and 28 March 2015 is a significant development.’ Located in the famed Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, Big White Ski Resort has long been known for its quantity and quality of snow. Boasting an average snowfall of 7.5 metres annually, it’s no wonder Big White has received numerous internationally acclaimed awards for ‘Best Snow’. The 2013/14 season was no exception as Big White recorded one of the best seasons on record when it closed its doors on 13 Apr with a snow base in excess of two metres. The resort could probably stay open

until June, however, domestically families are kissing goodbye to winter and saying hello to summer. It’s not only the snow at Big White, it’s the convenience of the charming totally ski-in/-out resort village. For families the ski-in/-out village is so easy— there’s no commute to the ski fields: out the door, on the snow and the immaculately groomed slopes await. After the lifts stop spinning, there is something to delight the kids every evening from Saturdaynight fireworks to bonfires by the skating rink to the adrenaline rush of Canada’s largest tubing park. There is even a 25-metre ice-climbing tower for those looking for a challenge. For more information on Big White and other Canadian destinations, contact your preferred travel specialist.

Shape up

for the ski season Skiing is a massive workout for your legs. Your muscles and cardio system will be called upon at all times while you're on that mountain. You can't fake a good ski technique and must always listen to your body. Injury can occur when fatigue sets in. The happy news is with a few key exercises you can target the legs and strengthen them so you can get in a few more runs before fatigue sets in and those legs start to burn. This little cheat-sheet of exercises can be done from now, six weeks out from the peak of the season. Even just a little prep is better than nothing. Key fitness elements for a good ski season Endurance: You need to find time to work on your cardio fitness—be it a cycle, jog or even a brisk walk. Half an hour, four times a week will help condition your cardio fitness and stop you from fatiguing too early. Try an indoor cycling class, they are great for building fitness with low impact as well as strength benefits. Strength: To ski safely and enjoyably, downhill and cross-country, you need strong quads, hamstrings, glutes and core (balance helps). Now, if you're a seasoned gym-goer, you'd be all over this, just make sure to incorporate some single-leg isolations such as lunges—these will help your balance on those skis. 20

If you can't get to a gym, here are some exercises you can do at home:

Lunges Lunges are excellent for ski exercises because you can do them at varying angles and directions, with a step or platform, or with weights. By doing various types of lunges you work more muscles in your legs. This will benefit you as you ski. The basic lunge involves taking a big step forward with one leg and then bending until your thigh is almost parallel to the floor. Never bend so far that your knee extends further than your foot. Try for three sets of 12 reps.

One-legged Squats These squats are one of the best exercises because they both strengthen your legs and increase your balance. To do this exercise, stand straight on one leg, with the other leg bent at the knee. Bend your knee as if you were about to sit down without reaching a fully seated position. Pause briefly and return to standing. After several repetitions, switch legs. If balance is difficult, put your hand on a chair or wall. In time, try to do these with no balance assistance. To enhance your balance even further, do them with your eyes closed. Make sure to track the knee over the toe. Repeat this exercise approximately 10 times before taking a rest. Try to complete this a total of four times per day. Plié squat for inner thighs Strong thighs are essential for skiing. Target your inner thighs with the plié squat. Start with feet more than shoulder-width apart, feet at a forty-five degree angle. Hold a dumbbell between your legs, or full water bottles. Keep your back straight and your chin level with the floor. Bend your knees to squat down, while keeping your weight centered on your heels as you bend down. Remember to keep your knees about your ankles and stop when your thighs are parallel with

Plyometric exercises These are exercises that require you to jump, explosively. Use caution when you do these, as you can injure yourself if you are out of shape or have a history of knee problems. Skipping rope and jumpsquats are two good plyometric exercises. These strength exercises can be done anytime: while watching TV or listening to music while dinner is cooking, or when your kids have gone to bed. Have a great season—you’ll notice as you ski more, you’ll get stronger and better every time.

KORE KORE Skincare is an Australian company focused on producing natural skin-care products. The company has made a study of ancient healing potions and remedies once used by our forefathers for medicinal cures for a variety of illnesses and problematic skin disorders. KORE then blended today’s advanced technologies to create a unique ingredient—“Kore Complex”, trademarked, owned and exclusively related to KORE Skincare. One particular natural ingredient that was rediscovered in KORE’s scientific studies was bovine

colostrum. This pure ingredient is found in the majority of KORE products and is as the first liquid produced by dairy cows prior to producing milk. Studies conducted by scientists suggest that this powerful bioactive concentrate improves the functioning of the human immune system by increasing the production of glutathione, the body’s master antioxidant, which is vital in the healing and production of skin cells along with numerous other serious health benefits. KORE products are gentle on the skin, completely safe to use, are chemical and paraben free and are developed without any form of animal testing. All

KORE products are suitable for all skin types. The KORE range includes: Foaming Cleanser 120ml (1), Gentle Exfoliator 120ml (2), Intensive Serum 30ml (3), Recovery Night Concentrate 50ml (4), Revitalising Toner 120ml (5), Repairing Eye Serum 30ml (6), Restorative Day Concentrate 50ml (7), Rejuvenation Mask 50ml (8) and Optimal Repair Cream 50ml (not pictured).

SETTING GOALS In my last article, I discussed how often small business owners can lose sight of why the business was set up when day-today events start to overtake them and so I thought Ian Ash, AInstIB I would provide a simple guide on just one way to get things back under control through goal-setting. It is surely true, as Lewis Carroll said, ‘If you don’t know where you are going, any road will get you there’ and without clear goals, you will be swayed and distracted by whatever comes along and hence expend unnecessary time, effort and perhaps even money on things that are not essential to the business. So where do we start? A simple way to derive goals is to divide a rectangular box into four and label each of the four boxes: ‘Strengths’, ‘Weaknesses’, ‘Opportunities’ and ‘Threats’, then list the business attributes in each (this is known as a 22

SWOT table). Strengths and Weaknesses tend to be internal items that the business has direct control over, whereas Opportunities and Threats tend to be externally generated. It is a good idea to do this exercise with other people in your team, as you will get a more comprehensive assessment of the business in these areas. Most goals will tend to be focused on improving or fixing something, so the Weaknesses box is going to be your best source for the goals. Creation of the goals should follow the SMART principle, that is: • Specific • Measurable • Achievable • Relevant • Time-specific You should keep the number of goals to a reasonable level (i.e. better to achieve a few than fail on a lot) and each goal should have a defined Owner within the business (they can’t all reside with the boss!). There are also some important things to note about the goals selected: • The goals must be written down, shared and committed to by each owner. • You have to be passionate about the goals

you set for the business and truly believe that they can be achieved. Without the passion or belief, you simply won’t put in the necessary effort to make these a reality. • The measurable aspect is especially important since progress against each goal must be tracked on a regular basis and action taken if you are starting to deviate from the required objective. A simple example that I use to illustrate what a SMART goal looks like is as follows: Goal: I will lose five kilos in weight by 1 December 2014. It is clearly specific and easily measurable (if we assume I start on 1 July, then I know I need to lose 1kg each month to stay on target). Assuming I have 5kg worth of excess weight to lose, then it should be both achievable and relevant and the end date makes it timespecific. Best of luck with your goal-setting!

$ How to sell the $7 GP co-payment fee Of the three most controversial elements in Joe Hockey’s 2014 Budget, two—the Deficit Levy on high income earners and the re-indexation of the petrol excise—will almost certainly be passed by the Senate. Tom Elliot, 3AW Drive host However, the proposed $7 charge for attending one’s local bulk-billing GP is opposed by Labor, the Greens and even Clive Palmer. As a result, in its current form the fee is dead in the water. Here’s what I think Mr Hockey has to do to sell his new healthcare charge:

First, despite the 2014 Budget being several weeks old it’s still unclear who will continue to pay the $7 charge if they see their doctor more than ten times per year. My advice? Cap the fee at ten visits for all children, pensioners and anyone on disability support. Most other people can probably bear the cost in the unlikely event they require a GP more than once a month. Second, Mr Hockey should rethink just how he intends to spend the money raised by the charge. Right now the funds in question will be deposited into an account at the Future Fund, where they’ll be left year-in, year-out, until they total $20 billion (a colossal sum of money). At this point the annual investment earnings from the account will be directed towards medical research. While such a goal is admirable, it fails the basic political test of linking a new tax

to a perceived and immediate public benefit. At the best of times medical research is risky, expensive and unlikely to yield dividends in the short term. For its sins the Australian voting public demands results right now, not in ten or 15 years’ time when today’s obscure plant compound evolves into the wonder drug of tomorrow. In every Australian state hospital waiting lists grow and grow as the health system struggles to deal with an ageing population. If Joe Hockey wants his $7 GP Levy to pass the Senate, he should promise to funnel the money raised not into long-term research, but rather towards frontline hospital services—such as new MRI scanners, more emergency doctors and enough nurses to deliver adequate patient care. Not even Labor Leader Bill Shorten would oppose such a plan.

The Tainted Trial of Farah Jama

Email your name and address

by Julie Szego

by 7 July to competitions@indentmedia.com.au

One Saturday night in 2006, a woman in her forties was found slumped unconscious in the toilets at an over-28s nightclub in Doncaster. The police and an ambulance were called, she was taken to hospital and an investigation into an alleged sexual assault began. Forensics quickly established a DNA match from a sperm sample found on the woman’s body and a young man was arrested. He was Farah Jama, a young Somali refugee. Jama insisted he was innocent: he’d never met the woman, in fact he’d never even been to Doncaster, and he had numerous alibi witnesses who supported his assertion that he’d been at home in Preston that night. The police could provide no evidence to prove that Jama had been at the nightclub—no fingerprints were found, he didn’t appear in CCTV footage, no witnesses had seen him at the club. Yet the case went to trial and Jama was convicted of rape solely on the DNA evidence, which was held to be incontrovertible.

So Jama went to jail to begin a six-year sentence, and soon afterwards his legal team began working on an appeal—an appeal that would rest on one fundamental question: ‘could the DNA evidence be wrong?’ It took until December 2009, but finally the appeal was heard … Former Age journalist Julie Szego delves into every aspect of this puzzling and troubling case, trying to establish what really happened. Along the way she meets with resistance, not least from Jama and his family, who want to control the way the story is told. Ultimately Szego reveals just how flawed the case against Jama was, and how much it rested on unthinking assumptions by so many people who should have known better: police, forensic scientists, lawyers and the courts. OUT NOW. The Tainted Trial of Farah Jama is out now from Wild Dingo Press RRP$29.95 (paperback, ebook also available).
