Editor’s letter

T

he say nobody likes change, but sometimes, I reckon, ‘they’ are wrong. I don’t think anyone will be complaining about the change that we’ll all be feeling on the Sunshine Coast in the coming weeks. It’s the change that heralds the last of the cool weather and hints at the long summer months to come. It’s called spring.

In the spirit of the upcoming change of season, spring has arrived a little early in the My Weekly Preview off ce, as this week we are thinking about making a fresh start, and we are encouraging our readers to do the same.

Last weekend I cleaned out my wardrobe, and the younger Pearson will be pleased to learn that this weekend he’s got the chance to earn some pocket money, by helping his mum do the same in his bedroom.

I am in a spring cleaning mood. Would you like to join me? Over the page, I take the feather duster to all areas of life. Sure, it’s a great time to clean out the pantry and give the linen cupboard a good airing, but while you’re at it, why not blow the cobwebs off the f nances, give your relationships a good clean out, and set up some positive habits for mind and body? Head over the page and get ready for change.

If the kind of change you’d like to experience is one of scenery, perhaps you’d like to join us in Italy. We are sipping limoncello in our travel section this week, over on page 20.

If you’d rather leave the spring clean until next weekend, head over to my time on page 32 for activities to do outside the home. Speaking of home, what’s the security like at your place? For some tips on keeping your place Jemma Pearson safe, turn to page 37.

A fresh start

While winter’s chilly grip hasn’t quite left the Coast yet, Jemma Pearson is already feeling in the spring mood, so she has put together this guide on getting ready for the new season ahead.

It’s time to spring clean, and not just your home – relationships, mind, body and bank accounts could all use a refreshing cleanse. Here’s how to do it.

Penny wise Money and w work are still the bigge biggest worries keeping u us up at night. A rrecent Lifeline p poll of more than 1200 respondents respo revealed reve 77 per p cent of A Australians experience exp job-related job-rel stress and t d 72 per cent experience stress caused by f nances.

And stress levels are rising: almost half the respondents indicated they suffered “a lot” of stress in these areas, which is up from about a quarter in 2013.

“If stress lasts a long time or overwhelms our ability to cope, it can have a detrimental effect on our health, wellbeing and general enjoyment of life,” says Lifeline’s John Brogden.

If money worries are getting you down, the Australian Securities & Investments Commission Money Smart site (at moneysmart.gov.au) has some great tips on saving money.

• To save at the supermarket, ASIC advises you to take a list and buy only what’s on it. Put your grocery money in an envelope and don’t take any other cash or cards with you so you can spend only what you have. Buy in bulk and go [ 8 ] MY W EEKLY P RE VIE W \ AUG UST 8, 2014

8.indd 1

grocery shopping once a fortnight.

• To save on electricity switch off heaters and air-cons when you are not in the room, turn off appliances at the wall and use energy-eff cient bulbs.

• To save on water, have twominute showers, wash clothes in cold water and install a watereff cient showerhead. You’ll notice it when you get your electricity bill.

• It’s a good idea to try saving money with a friend. The extra motivation will help and you can share tips and advice. You can enjoy cheap nights out together, and borrow items from each other rather than buying new things.

• Save on bank fees by shopping around for an account that has no account-keeping fees, free monthly statements, no minimum deposit amounts and no overdrawn fees. Visit bankers.asn. au, click on ‘Consumers’, then ‘Managing your Money’ for more on choosing a bank account.

• Little changes can help – cut down on alcohol and takeaway coffees, take your lunch to work instead of buying it, cancel your gym membership and walk to work instead, borrow books and DVDs from the library and set a limit for Christmas and birthday gifts.

C’mon get happy Trumpet player extraordinaire James Morrison believes f nding your passion will lead to happiness. Morrison uncovered his passion at a very young age and spoke last month about his love of jazz music at the Happiness & Its Causes conference in Sydney.

For indigenous artist Gail Mabo, she too discovered her source of happiness at a young age. The daughter of late land rights activist Eddie Mabo is a respected choreographer and artist. One of seven children, Mabo says it was her father who inspired her to dance. Mabo says dance and painting take her to a “happy space”.

Professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi – a pioneering researcher and best-selling author of Flow: the Psychology of Optimal Experience, the classic work on how to achieve happiness – says too many people are caught up worrying about what everyone else is doing and go through life never really questioning who they are, what they like to do and what they are good at.

“And so they end up kind of twisted out of shape and not really happy,” he says. “You have

to learn to f gure out what feels good to you … In terms of what you would like to do for the rest of your life, what makes life meaningful. “You can then perhaps craft a life that you feel good about.”

Vein Matthieu Ricard is a French-born Buddhist monk from the Shechen Monastery in Nepal.

He has worked as an interpreter to the Dalai Lama and is the best-selling author of Happiness: A Guide to Developing Life’s Most Important Skill.

Be more altruistic – what really matters is how we care for others, Ricard says.

“The quality of social network is not just measured by how many people you know socially, it’s base on the number of people of whom you can count, of whom you can ask advice, the people you can trust.

It’s giving and receiving not just a commercial exchange of favours. It’s care, helping each other, the joy of co-operation.

We are now seven billion people deciding the fate of billions of billions of a generations to come, so we can not say that this is not our job, it’s not our responsibility.”

Wear it well MWP’s Dianna Mullins says, “A new fashion season is exciting and my favourite is spring! Being such a big plain fresh white fan and/or the opposite extreme of lots of gorgeous colour, I am usually rewarded with many options this time of year for a wardrobe re-boot.”

Her tips:

• Throw away anything that is pilled, out of shape, stained, or too big or too small.

• Check your basics and replace them if needed.

• Inject new colour with some pieces you love and importantly, suit your body shape.

• You don’t need a big budget for a whole new wardrobe – it’s easy to add colour and trend with accessories if you can’t afford new pieces.

Eat up Nutrition Australia says spring is a great time to give ourselves a diet audit and improve areas that need attention.

There are two aspects to this – f tness and food. The National Physical Activity Guidelines recommend all Australian adults get at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise most days of the week. Water consumption is important for health, too, and most of us should avoid sports drinks unless we are engaging in particularly intense exercise for more than an hour on hot or humid days.

In terms of food, the team at

If you’ve spent winter cosying up on the couch, it’s time to get moving. Here are a few tips to get you started.

• Get a check-up with your GP. • Buy new runners, and add some new pieces to your f tness wardrobe so you look – and start to feel – the part.

Move it

• Set a f tness schedule, either on your own, with a group or a personal trainer.

• Start introducing incidental exercise into your day by taking the stairs, walking to the shops and incorporating little exercises into your day – squat while putting out the washing and lunge your way to the kitchen.

Nutrition Australia recommends f xing the family diet with meal planning. Shopping in advance so you have all the ingredients at hand helps to ensure those meals are healthy. In spring, light soups, stir-fries that are full of vegetables and big healthy salads are great choices. It’s important to ensure you get lots of f bre to keep the body functioning well.

• Add some new tunes to your iPod: new research suggests rap is best for running and stretching; dance music for strength training and pop music for warming up and cooling down.

• Make a habit of stretching, before and after exercise, while waiting for the bus or watching TV. • Plan physical activities on the weekend such as bushwalking, kicking the ball around in the park or meeting friends for a spot of tennis.

• Add weights – hold small weights while walking or tie-on weights while you do the housework.

• Set a reward for goals that are met, such as a facial or massage.

Making a connection The relationships we have with others are perhaps the most enriching part of our lives, but relationship troubles can cause a huge amount of stress, discomfort and despair. It’s natural to have highs and lows in your relationship with your partner, but simple changes can inject fresh energy into a relationship. Does your relationship need a spring clean?

Val Holden is a relationship counsellor with Relationships Australia in Maroochydore.

She tells MWP there are many reasons why relationship problems crop up.

“Often it’s in times of transition that relationships go through hard times, such as the birth of a child, change of job, moving house,” she says. “Often these are the times when couples f ght. They misunderstand each other more.”

Holden says if you are going through a transition period, it is useful to ref ect on your relationship and see how it is being affected. But

issues also arise when partners don’t really hear each other.

“Often one partner will try to talk and the other gets defensive,” Holden says – and then it escalates into a f ght.

“Having a third person – a counsellor who is trained and can make it safe – will help each person

As we grow in our relationships, it’s easy to lose the connection with the person we once fell desperately in love with. If you feel you have lost that spark, there are some simple things you can do to re-establish that connection.

Relationships Australia has this advice on making positive changes

Having a third person – a counsellor who is trained and can make it safe – will help each person listen to what is really being said Val Holden listen to what is really being said.”

She says some couples are able to ref ect and work through issues themselves, but most benef t when they receive counselling.

“If you f nd you can’t talk without arguing or getting defensive, get a relationship expert. Get them to help you hear.”

STOCK CLEARANCE NLY ONE WEEK O STOCK HURRY! LIMITED

in your relationship: • take time to care for your relationship and look at what is happening in it, • stay curious (and respectful) of each other, • be really honest about your needs – tell your partner when you are happy and unhappy and encourage

him or her to do the same, • really listen, and communicate your needs, and • ask yourself, ‘how can I improve my relationship?’.

To spring clean your relationship and add some fresh energy, you could start a new hobby together; go out on dates and spend time alone with each other; every evening, spend time talking about your day; express affection; and notice small things your partner does and appreciate these things.

Other tips include:

• being supportive of one another and not judging, even if your partner does things differently to you, • asking for help if you are feeling overwhelmed by things, • sharing the load, • allowing yourself and your partner time to relax, and • taking responsibility for your own feelings and actions.

Caloundra ready for Tough Mudder

T

he mud will be flying in Caloundra next weekend when the region’s second annual Tough Mudder event gets underway.

And it is expected to be a boon for local businesses and Sunshine Coast tourism.

Caloundra Chamber of Commerce Tourism and Events chair Bill Darby says he is expecting accommodation to be fully booked for the weekend and restaurants and shops packed with participants and their family and friends.

“The economic impact from last year’s Tough Mudder was estimated at over $5 million,” Darby tells MWP. “It was a major weekend where many hospitality businesses recorded record takings for the Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It was fantastic.”

With 12 months to plan for this year’s event, Darby says local tourism and hospitality businesses were able to take advantage of the event and they have added some local touches to keep the party going.

Apres Mud, a play on the widely known skiing terminology, apres-ski, will effectively be an ‘after mud’ event for participants, locals and visitors to enjoy, refuel and relive the experience.

“The public can join in the fun and celebration on the Caloundra

Over the last 12 months our course designers have been hard at work preparing new challenges and surprises… waterfront, overlooking the spectacular Pumicestone Passage,” Darby says.

Apres Mud will be a street party with bars, street food, entertainment and a big screen

broadcasting scenes from the event.

The party is open to everyone and all ages and Darby expects it to be popular.

Then there is the Mud Trail, which is expected to be a popular experience across the entire weekend.

“Our exciting new Mud Trail will feature 24 Caloundra businesses, who will roll out a special welcome and congratulations to our event visitors, any time over the weekend from Friday through to Sunday evening,” says Darby.

“The backbone of the event will be a mix of food, drink, music, shopping and fun activities.”

Tough Mudder, designed by British Special Forces, includes a series of endurance tests including thick mud, f re, ice-water and 10,000 volts of electricity.

This year’s Caloundra event will be the f rst Australian Tough Mudder

to feature the new Fire in your Hole obstacle.

Tough Mudder general manager Australasia, Jeremy Kann, says the Coast’s inaugural event last year was one of the biggest Tough Mudder events to date.

“Over the last 12 months our course designers have been hard at work preparing new challenges and surprises to test the all-around strength, stamina, mental grit and teamwork of Queensland Mudders,” Kann says.

Tough Mudder will take place at Bells Creek, Caloundra South on August 16 and 17. The Apres Mud event will kick off from 2pm on August 16 along the Esplanade at Bulcock Beach and the Mud Trail will from Friday August 15 to Sunday August 17.

CHOOSING A BUILDER

HEART OF THE HOME

Kitchens and bathrooms are two of the most important rooms in your home.

You might not judge a book by its cover but many people judge a home by its kitchen and bathrooms.

Morcraft Homes director Steve Morcombe says kitchens and bathrooms are two of the highestcost areas when building a home and for good reason.

They are the areas with the most appliances, fittings, features and extra attention needs to be paid to details like waterproofing.

“Getting these two areas right is important for functionality, ease-of-use, liveability and visual

impact,” Morcombe says.

He suggests anyone building a home take some extra time to think about the flexibility of a kitchen space, how much time they will spend in it and how it will be used before settling on a design.

“One of the biggest mistakes with a kitchen is having it too crammed or having a design that makes it hard to access the mostused areas,” he says.

Visualise yourself in the space and how you will use it and pay attention to small details.

✓ Finishing touches Choosing the right paints and renders will ensure your home is easy to maintain in years to come. Check back next fortnight to learn about the importance of adding the right f nishing touches.

If someone is making school lunches is there room for another person to be making breakfast at the same time? And if you have the pantry open are you able to open the fridge door?

“It is the little things that can make a kitchen more functional and enjoyable to use,” he says.

But not every kitchen needs the same features.

“The type of life you lead may be reflected in the type of appliances you need.”

If you are a keen cook and a big entertainer you might consider the higher end ovens and stoves whereas someone who eats out a lot or is away often might focus more on having an easily accessible microwave.

Storage is another important consideration and Morcombe says there are many options like pot drawers or cupboards that can be accessed from both sides that maximise storage options

and make cupboards easier to use.

The biggest consideration with bathrooms, as a builder, is making sure they are properly wet-sealed.

“Your house is likely to be your biggest asset and protecting it from moisture damage is a small thing that can save you financial pain in years to come,” he says.

Making sure the showers, including any tiled recesses, wall-to-floor joins and pipe penetrations are fully wet-sealed from the beginning, will give you peace of mind in the future.

Flexibility should also be considered in the bathroom. If you have children or teenagers, how many will be using the bathroom, is there adequate storage for all their bathroom necessities and is the space easy to use?

“Getting these two areas right from the start can make your home more liveable and add to its overall value in years to come.”

THE REAL ITALY

Drinking homemade limoncello in a 15th-century farmhouse and taking pizza-making lessons with an Italian mama are two of the authentic experiences to be had when you explore southern Italy on a Living Local group tour.

U

sing the same care and attention a jeweller might employ to handle precious stones, 68-year-old farmer Peppino Nunziata examines the plump, waxy lemons hanging from wooden pergolas in his 10,000-square metre garden.

“Lemons are very delicate, so they need a lot of looking after,” he says, after deciding this particular bunch is not yet ready to be picked.

Every day, from 6.30am, Peppino works in his garden, preparing for a marathon seven harvests,

which produce an impressive 2500 kilograms of lemons per year.

Sadly, though, these fragrant, golden gems are no longer the high-value commodity they once were; Sorrento lemons were once a lucrative export, but today the price is much lower.

In order to keep their business going and preserve an important part of the region’s history, Peppino and his family have been forced to diversify, opening their property up to tourists as an agriturismo – a working farm where guests are

lit ll granted literally t d a taste t t off local l l life, lif with ith many home-grown products served at the dinner table.

The Italian government set up the concept in the 1980s, to give farmers a secondary source of income, maintaining the existence of farms and stopping a mass exodus of people from the countryside.

Tour operator G Adventures is now using the Nunziatas’ Il Giardino di Vigliano property in its ‘Local Living’ program, giving tourists the opportunity to enjoy grass-roots southern Italian hospitality.

Set in the hills above Sorrento, with views of the island Capri and a coastline dotted with umbrella pines, it’s hard to imagine that life here is ever hard graft.

Walking through a shady tunnel of lemon and mandarin trees, the smell of citrus fruits create a euphoric headspin.

Owned by the Nunziato family for four generations, the garden was f rst planted in the 17th century. Ida, Peppino’s wife, says lemon production in this region was started by the Jesuits in the 16th century, although the fruit was popular as far back as Roman times.

Now, most of the lemons the family produce are sold to a limoncello factory in Capri, one of the f rst places to bottle the syrupy, sweet digestif 20 years ago.

Ida serves limoncello on the terrace of the 15th-century stone farmhouse.

“Good limoncello should be cold but not freezing,” she explains with a matriarchal authority, revealing that while Peppino’s preserve is the garden, she very much rules the kitchen.

Once the sun has seeped into the still Gulf of Naples, leaving an afterglow of pink streaks across the horizon, we head inside for a pizzamaking lesson.

Ida slips doughy discs into a crackling woodf red oven and we bake enough bread for a picnic lunch the following day, exploring the other side of the peninsula along Italy’s better known Amalf coastline.

Following the Walk Of The Gods hiking trail clinging to the cliff tops, we watch expensive

yachts cruise the waters and marvel at the exclusive Li Galli islands. This area certainly isn’t short of money – or tourists.

Finally we reach Positano, where pastelcoloured houses crowd the cliff face like pushy spectators jostling for a front row view of the water.

Heading back to sleepy, stress-free Sorrento, we hope that Ida has already f red up the pizza oven.

Baking is second nature to Italians, and during excavations of nearby Pompeii, archaeologists unearthed carbonised bread, along with grains and barbecue grills.

The famous site is a short drive from Sorrento, and an obvious highlight for visitors to the region.

But with ongoing excavations and a quarter of the area still uncovered, there’s plenty to discover.

Our guide, Renato, takes us to a domus (villa).

The high-walled fortress once belonged to rich merchants who made their fortune selling wine and olive oil.

There are remains of colourful frescoes, used as a substitute for windows, and glittering f oor mosaics, designed to ref ect light in the otherwise dark, cool building.

Nearly two thousand years later, the roof having collapsed and walls crumbled, the sun

Roman temple in Pompeii

beats down on weary tourists regretting their midday visit.

We continue to Naples where baristas serve viscous, explosive strength espressos to loud, boisterous Neapolitans.

An eccentric performer turns up on a customised Tim Burton-esque scooter to entertain diners. He’s the epitome of Naples’ offbeat, humorous charm.

Playing hot and cold WIN News weather presenter and meteorologist Hannah McEwan talks cold fronts

I

f you watch the weather on TV regularly, you will be familiar with a cold front on a weather map. It is displayed as a thick blue line with triangular spikes, pointing in the direction the front is travelling, towards warmer air.

A cold front is the edge of a cool, dry air mass which replaces a warmer air mass at the surface.

After the front passes, a dramatic temperature drop can be experienced as well as a shift in wind direction and a change of humidity.

Cold fronts in Australia usually move from the south-west to

north-east and are accompanied by an area of low pressure.

Cold fronts form because our planet is unevenly heated by the sun, with cold air at the poles and hot air at the equator, so the air constantly moves to try and make the temperature the same.

When hot air moves towards the south and cold air moves north, a front forms between the two different air masses.

In Australia, cold fronts generally have the biggest affect in the south and can occur all year round. The largest temperature change, behind a front, usually occurs during autumn and spring and the middle of winter.

During winter, cold fronts can bring chilly weather or snow. In summer, with more moisture in the atmosphere we can see storms, hail, rain and sometimes tornadoes.

If there is not enough moisture present, regardless of the time of year, a front can pass with no cloud or rain.

After taking antidepressants for 20 years, she was shocked to find there was a cause for her depression that was never found. Within weeks she was excited, happy, motivated and amazed to get her life back.

When she f rst began antidepressants, she felt a lack of interest in life, low mood, irritability, anger, anxiety and insomnia. Exhaustion then caused more anger and irritability. With a young family, the strain was too much, so she went to her GP and began antidepressants, which worked well, but needed to be maintained for a normal life.

When I f rst saw her, she had responded to an ad about depression and was curious about coming off her antidepressants. After asking a few questions, and scanning her brain and body for inf ammation, infection, hormone and brain chemical levels, it was clear what the causes were.

Nothing traumatic had happened during the time the depression began, she was relaxed and happy as she had returned from an overseas holiday. This always rings alarm bells, as there are bacteria in water overseas that can cause depression, so we organised a bowel test. We also found that when she was moody, it f uctuated, with bouts of sleepiness, and fogginess throughout the day. This usually indicates a relationship with food, as the

symptoms start between meals, f rst irritability and fogginess, then sleepiness, then back to normal.

When food does not agree with you, it can cause depression, anxiety, irritability, insomnia and low thyroid function. The liver detoxif es the offending food, by using enzymes which are also involved in making serotonin in the brain. This results in the brain under-functioning leading to low moods. One of these enzymes is responsible for producing melatonin for sleep, so insomnia follows. The thyroid drops in function during a food reaction. In women this will cause the progesterone to drop, which creates an oestrogen dominance problem leading to PMS, menopausal symptoms, and more hormonal imbalances including severe mood swings.

We found with testing she had a few offending foods she was eating regularly, and when we received the results from her gut test found she also had a bacterial overgrowth affecting the brain. After treating these, starting a good diet, and raising serotonin, melatonin, and dopamine naturally, she was feeling amazing within weeks.

Depression and other mood disorders affect one in four Australians. It is not a disease that has unknown cause, like many believe, and can be resolved quickly.

Early Retirement Seminar Are you happy being dictated to by the Australian Government’s Retirement policy? If so, you should NOT attend this seminar.

Learn how you can retire in your fifties, or even earlier!

But let’s forget the word ‘retirement’ and move on to ‘living the life you want to live’.

If you think that financial planning is all about investing, you’d be wrong. It’s all about figuring out what it is you want to do in life, and planning how, and when you will be able to afford to do it.

We are going to analyse four vehicles that give ordinary people financial independence earlier in life. No one wants to be forced to work until their late sixties or seventies.

The 4 individual possibilities that lead to financial freedom are: • Working for yourself • Living from rental income • Living from share income • Massaging your work into your retirement A combination of some, or all, of the above is the ideal solution. If you want to learn the early retirement strategies that one of Buderim’s oldest Financial Planning practices uses…don’t miss this once only seminar. Remember, we don’t sell property and we don’t sell shares. We only get paid to provide good financial advice.

We will walk you through some of the best early retirement tips you’ve ever heard.

Whether you want to work out a Financial Plan of your own, or you believe you’ve already got one…don’t miss this opportunity.

$25 million learning hub opens

A

$25 million award-winning Learning and Teaching Hub was officially opened at the University of the Sunshine Coast this week.

Queensland Senator James McGrath unveiled the three-story building, which is a joint initiative of the Commonwealth Government’s Structural Adjustment Fund, TAFE Queensland East Coast and the University of the Sunshine Coast.

The building contains premises for USC’s Student Life and Learning, Tertiary Preparation Pathway, Buranga Centre, Centre for Support

and Advancement of Learning and Teaching and TAFE’s nursing programs.

TAFE Queensland East Coast head of nursing Jo-Liz Prosser expects students, researchers, partners and the community will benef t from the new space.

“Our nursing students and USC’s will benef t from cutting-edge simulation technology, with students already using simulation training equipment which includes fullyequipped nursing wards with high-tech manikins that even display symptoms and respond to treatments,” Prosser says.

The building was designed by architects from multidisciplinary studio HASSELL and was built by BADGE Construction Projects, which last month won a Queensland Master Builders Sunshine Coast award for the project.

Fancy a furry new friend?

Are you looking for a new loving and loyal family member to liven up your home life? Then don’t miss out on Adopt a Day, where more than 100 dogs will be eagerly awaiting new families to adopt them.

Local councillor Christian Dickson says he is pleased he is able to provide some funding support towards the big day.

“For those interested in getting a new dog, I cannot recommend attending this free event highly enough,” Dickson says.

“There will be dogs of all shapes and sizes, ages and breeds looking for a ‘forever home’.

“They will be coming from a number of different animal refuges from the Sunshine Coast area and further af eld.

“Entry is free and dog food donations are welcome. Plus, a year’s supply of dog food will be won on the day.”

Adopt a Day will be held at Ballinger Sports Complex on Sunday, August 10 from 9.30am to 3.30pm.

Now’s the time to support new Coast projects Here’s your chance to back the f ve region-making projects nominated by the council under the State Government’s Strong Choices Investment Program.

“The Sunshine Coast will be competing with every region across Queensland to get a share of the $8.6 billion which will be made available if asset sales go ahead in this state,” acting mayor Chris Thompson says.

The council has identif ed f ve projects which will make the biggest difference to the future of this region: duplicating the North Coast Rail Line, upgrading the Bruce Highway, the Sunshine Coast Motorway, Nicklin Way interchange and the Mooloolah River Crossing, a bus corridor and an entertainment and exhibition centre.

Crime pays for Harry Potter author With a seven-book crime series in the works, JK Rowling proves she has more than wizards and witches up her sleeve.

A

uthor JK Rowling has revealed plans to pen many more crime thrillers and create a series that will run for longer than her seven Harry Potter books.

The multimillionaire novelist, who has written two whodunits under the pen name Robert Galbraith, says she loves the crime genre because she can create as many tales as she likes for her character, rather than be tied by a single storyline.

Her comments come after her second crime novel featuring detective Cormoran Strike, The Silkworm, topped the Sunday Times bestseller list in June.

Speaking at the Theakstons Old Peculier Crime Writing Festival in North Yorkshire last month, the author said she hoped to write more than seven books about the detective.

“It’s pretty open-ended,” she said. “I really love writing, so I don’t know that I’ve got an end point in mind. One of the things I love about this genre is unlike Harry Potter, where there was a through line, where there was an overarching story, a beginning and end, you are talking about discreet stories. So while a detective lives, you can keep giving him cases.”

The bestselling author, who has been widely

credited with helping to get children reading, said she decided to use a pseudonym for her latest series to prove herself as a writer.

“I wanted to prove to myself that I could get a book published on the merits of the book.

“A friend of mine said, ‘Why did you need validation?’, and I think possibly you need to be a writer to understand why.

“I had known for a long time that I had this character in my mind, and that I wanted to write a detective series and part of me hoped that I might be able to keep it long enough, kept the story going long enough to establish a series.

“I just wanted something, I suppose, just for me.”

And Rowling revealed she has always been a fan of crime novels and drew inspiration from the genre for her Harry Potter series. “I love crime. I’ve always loved it. I read a lot of it and I think the Harry Potter books in many ways are whodunits in disguise.

“I enjoy the golden age [crime] book. That’s very much what I was trying to do with these books – to take that f nite number of suspects – the genuine whodunit style, but make it very contemporary, make it up to date and make sure this is a credible person and a credible back story.”

] THE WEEK THAT WAS

Thinking outside the traditional investment box

Anthony Ward is from Ord Minnett in Buderim

O

ne investment area that is starting to gain the interest of the Australian investor is in the category of alternative investments.

These include a diverse range of investments such as private equity, hedge funds and infrastructure: the aim is to provide different return and risk characteristics to traditional bonds and listed stocks. Since 1994, they have, on average, produced a higher return with less volatility than Australian equities.

There is limited opportunity to invest in alternatives. However, there is an investment manager who is stirring up interest in this area. Blue Sky is a diversif ed alternative-asset

manager across private equity and venture capital, private real estate, real assets (currently focused on water), and hedge funds. Formed in 2006, Blue Sky has produced an impressive track record since inception across a blend of its strategies at 13.9 per cent per annum.

Having established its ability and presence in the alternatives market, we believe Blue Sky is poised to take advantage of increasing allocations to the sector by retail and institutional investors.

Blue Sky holds more than $600 million in assets under management across its strategies, providing it with suff cient scale to turn an expected $5 million prof t on as-reported basis in the 2014 f nancial year.

Management fees range between 100 and 250 basis points per annum, while performance fees tend to be struck at 20 per cent above an eight per cent hurdle. With solid absolute performance, this structure leads us to forecast total fees on assets under management

It’s back!

of about three to f ve per cent.

One exciting business opportunity for Blue Sky is in its real asset investments. Its real assets business is focused on investment in water entitlements and utilities and infrastructure assets. This was established to capitalise on the outlook for Australia’s agricultural production, the global water supply gap anticipated in coming decades and the opportunity for appreciation in the price of entitlements as farmers refocus their crops to higher-margin outputs.

Australia’s water entitlements market is one of the world’s largest.

The emerging global undersupply of water and an increasing need for Australian farmers to feed the world’s growing population creates an attractive market for investment in Australian water assets.

A JAZZY AFTERNOON COLOURED CARROTS Carrots are believed to date back thousands of years. They were originally grown around Afghanistan before spreading around the world and they were purple. The orange carrots we eat today were bred by the Dutch about 500 years ago. Most of the nutritional value of carrots is in the skin, so don’t peel them.

Kia crosses over into turbo territory WORDS Peter Atkinson

K

ia has given a whole new meaning to the term “f ying the coop”. Or, in this case, f ying the Koup.

The Korean maker’s cute but previously mildmannered Koup, a two-door version of its popular Cerato sedan, has been given the hairy-armed treatment with a new turbo-charged engine – Kia’s f rst boosted engine to arrive in Australia.

The injection of this feisty, home-built 1.6-litre turbo, now also found in the smart Pro_Cee’d hatchback released recently, has added an

interesting edge to the Koup, which up to this point has been mostly “all show, not much go” in the performance stakes.

In turbo form it’s an altogether different thing.

Its 150 kilowatts and 265 Newton metres of torque certainly provide impressive bang for your buck, with its $27,990 (manual version) asking price.

It’s yet another appealing offering in the Kia showroom – a place which only a handful of years back offered cheap and cheerful motoring – but now is home to some of the most appealing

small cars on the Aussie market.

Aggressive, modern styling and massive improvements in vehicle dynamics and presentation have transformed the Kia f eet over the past couple of years.

The Koreans certainly seem to have the Japanese, and even the Europeans, in their sights. The Koup isn’t necessarily the car to do that. It’s a niche vehicle at best, although the turbo certainly broadens its buyer appeal.

We drove it in six-speed automatic conf guration, a $2200 premium over the six-speed manual – and it seems like a good investment.

The auto transmission is decisive and wellcalibrated to the strengths of the engine, primarily its very good low-down torque rather than its abilities higher in the rev-range. It drives purposefully off the line and out of corners with the engine in its sweet spot between about 2000 and 4000 revs.

Let the engine spin much beyond that and the punchy performance tends to drift away. That’s not necessarily a bad thing – it’s hard to imagine the Koup selling directly against hard-edged performance machines such as Subaru’s WRX and the like.

Instead, Kia is pitching it as the most powerful machine under $30,000 in Australia and it certainly impresses as a smartly presented, reasonably equipped two-door fun machine. From the outside, the Koup’s styling really f ts the bill.

It boasts modern, sweeping lines, nicely proportioned stance; the obligatory LED running lamps and, in this case, a smart-looking diffuser beneath the rear end. Inside, it’s slightly less impressive.

Functional, no doubt, but it doesn’t quite match the eye-catching quality and f air of its recentlylaunched sibling, Kia’s Pro_Cee’d, which boasts one of the best cockpits we’ve seen for ages. The Koup is Continued over>

a little more conservative. There are a lot of black f nishes, albeit mostly in soft-touch materials, but the centre stack and instrument binnacle are a touch pedestrian.

There is a useful multi-function display in the instrument panel delivering all manner of useful trip and economy information, and wheel-mounted paddles to take charge of the gearshifts, but otherwise there’s not much to excite the driver.

Mind you, that’s probably a harsh criticism for a car costing so little with such satisfying performance.

The turbo commands a $4000 price premium over the entry-level Koup, which will set you back $23,990 with a six-speed manual transmission and 129 kilowatts.

Of course, the danger in whacking a turbo-charger into otherwise fairly mundane machines is that their driving dynamics sometimes struggle to keep up with the additional performance.

That’s not a problem with the Koup, partly thanks to its nicely settled and predictable handling and sturdy braking and partly because its power delivery doesn’t necessarily encourage all-out aggression from the driver.

A full suite of safety devices includes six airbags, electronic stability control, vehicle stability management and ABS brakes. It will reach the speed limit in a sharpish 7.4 seconds, but remains very driveable in normal traff c situations.

Pleasingly, it emits a rorty exhaust note and it still manages decent fuel economy of less than eight litres per 100 kilometres.

In terms of practicality, two-door machines like this rarely score well, yet the Koup delivers acceptable space and comfort to the front-seat passengers, while those in the rear are afforded decent access

KIA CERRATO KOUP TURBO Details: Two-door, f ve-seat compact coupe with turbocharged, four-cylinder engine and six-speed automatic transmission.

Tech stuff: 1.6-litre, gasoline direct injection, turbo-charged four-cylinder engine produces 150kW at 6000rpm; 265Nm at 1750-4500rpm; six-speed automatic transmission with gearshift paddles.

Features: Six airbags, stability control, ABS brakes, air-conditioning, cruise control, electric windows and autofolding mirrors.

Thirst: 8L/100km.

Performance: 0-100km/h in 7.4 seconds, top speed 222km/h.

Verdict: Sweet looks, with a punch.

Bottom line: $30,190 (plus on road costs).

and reasonable space once they get there.

The boot is also relatively roomy, although it becomes more shallow the further items are pushed in, and the struts for the boot-lid tend to intrude into the load space, reducing its overall usefulness.

Still, these are relatively mild criticisms of a car that’s very affordably priced and that delivers plenty of value. Quite a coup for the Koup coupe, you could say.

WORD ON THE STREET

A feast of classic Fords under one roof

Harley goes electric The rumble of Harley-Davidson’s iconic motorcycles has been silenced.

Well, in concept anyway. HarleyDavidson and Marvel Studios introduced Project LiveWire – Harley’s first electric motorbike. Project LiveWire, featured in Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, is the ride of choice for Natasha Romanoff (Black Widow) played by Scarlett Johansson in the film. The bike is not for sale but is designed to get insight into rider expectations of an electric HarleyDavidson motorcycle.

t’s not every day you get to see a collection featuring some of Ford’s most classic and iconic vehicles on display in the one location.

But this Sunday more than 115 Ford show cars, including a full range of Limited V8 FVPs, will be on display at the Pacif c Ford showroom at Maroochydore, with entry free.

Pacif c Motorgroup branch manager Greg Manchester says the show, back by popular demand, is in its sixth year.

“We had a lot of owners who were looking for something like that in the area,” Manchester says of the show’s origins.

And with no grassy paddocks, mud or dust in sight, he says the dealership has proved to be a popular venue for car owners and show attendees.

The oldest car featured in this year’s show is a 1932 Model T replica, followed closely by a 1934 Tudor.

Other highlights include a Thunderbird Roadster and a variety of Mustangs.

Brock Mahoney’s 1977 XC hardtop will be on show this weekend But Manchester is excited about the special appearance of Brock Mahoney’s 1977 XC hardtop, In Envy, which was unveiled at MotorEx in Melbourne last month.

The XC GS coupe was bought new by Mahoney’s dad and was the family car before becoming a Sunday cruiser and then passed to Mahoney, who has fully restored it.

The guest speaker for the day is Ford Performance Racing driver Chaz Mostert and the dyno machine will be running for participants to check

their vehicle’s performance.

Manchester says the event will also support Tania Sherley in her quest, Chasing My Dreams. Sherley has spina bif da and hydrocephalus and is on a quest to get out of her wheelchair as part of the Sunshine Coast Marathon.

The Pacif c Ford and FPV Total Performance Car Show will be held at Pacif c Ford on Sugar Road, Maroochydore from 9am to 3pm on August 10. Show vehicles need to be registered prior to the event.

Under lock & key

Worried about home security? Here are a few easy tips to keep your property safe and secure.

LOCK AND LEAVE

HIDDEN TREASURES

This might sound obvious, but an amazing number of people don’t lock their front and back doors when they leave the house. For a secure home, this is a non-negotiable – not only do unlocked doors make it easy for intruders to enter your property, they also void many insurance policies. Get in the habit of securing all doors and windows, even when you are home. Also, don’t hide a key in the garden – seasoned burglars will know exactly where to look.

Leave a spare with a trusted friend or neighbour instead.

Don’t leave moveable valuables, such as your laptop, iPad, jewellery or smart phone, sitting in plain sight. Walk around the exterior of your property and look at what can be seen from the windows – opportunistic thieves may be tempted by the sight of your expensive sound system. Rearrange items so they can’t be seen, close the curtains or blinds or store valuables securely away when you’re not at home. (If you keep expensive jewellery, artwork or other high-cost items you may want to invest in a personal safe.) The same goes for outdoor items – make sure your bikes, sporting equipment and barbecue are reasonably hidden from prying eyes.

CLOSED DOORS The most secure doors are of solid-core construction with safety hinges and dead bolts (if you have French doors use push bolts or key-operated locks. Security doors and screens are great ways to allow light and breeze into the home without compromising on safety – make sure yours meet Australian standards and are professionally installed.

LIGHT IT UP A home that has sat dark and empty at night for weeks at a time is an easy target for burglars.

If you are going on an extended holiday, consider installing timer lights which can be turned on for an hour or two in the evening, to create the appearance of people being home (if your home has smart wiring you should be able to program a TV or sound system to turn on and off as well). Also, sensor lights for the exterior of your property are a must – these are affordable and easy to install, and the sudden light they give off can be enough to deter a would-be intruder. If you’re worried about energy usage opt for a solarpowered version. [ 38 ] MY W EEKLY P RE VIE W \ AUG UST 8, 2014

38.indd 1

BE ALARMED Home alarm systems are not as expensive or cumbersome as they used to be, and can provide a great deal of security and peace of mind. You can choose to alarm just your front and back doors, install motion sensors in key rooms or opt for a full security system – the most comprehensive packages are monitored by external security companies 24/7.

Other systems allow you to log in remotely from your phone or iPad and check that everything is secure within the home.

KEYS PLEASE While that key holder just inside the front door is convenient, if an intruder does get into your home it can become a nightmare. Don’t store your spare car or house keys in an obvious place (especially when the car is in the garage) to prevent them falling into the wrong hands. Instead, choose a less conspicuous storage spot that everyone in the family knows about.

Mooloolaba riverfront beauty

Recognised as one of the last development opportunities on the Mooloolah River, Mooloolaba, is the charming ‘Pink House’. Never before offered to the market, the home was built as a f shing shack and was surrounded by similar shacks – but now the Pink House is the last one standing. It boasts a generous 37 metres of river frontage on a 1012-square metre block of land, all just 350 metres from Mooloolaba Surf Club. Zoned for development, this is an opportunity many locals have been keeping their eyes on for years.

ARIES [March 21-April 20] It’s time for rams to ricochet into brand new territory, as you initiate changes in increasingly creative ways. As birthday great Andy Warhol declared “They always say time changes things, but you actually have to change things yourself.” Thursday is the day to help someone in need.

TAURUS [April 21-May 21] You think you know how a loved one is feeling but jumping to conclusions [without checking facts] is a recipe for trouble.

Take the time to talk things through. Attached Taureans – love and duty are linked as you work on a creative solution to a stubborn problem together.

GEMINI [May 22-June 21] Many Geminis are keen to share information and exchange ideas with family, friends and colleagues. Just make sure your chatter doesn’t denigrate into gossip. Saturn steadies your mercurial mind on the weekend, plus Uranus helps you approach a dilemma in a daring new way.

CANCER [June 22-July 23] Don’t assume you have all the answers. You have much to learn from others – especially children and teenagers. Listen to the wise words from the mouths of babes! Money matters are on your mind on Sunday so make sure all bills are paid.

LEO [July 24-Aug 23] Mercury and Uranus stimulate your curiosity and propel you into a brand new adventure … but you may also encounter some road blocks, as Saturn stymies your progress. Hasty actions and half-baked plans will only lead to long-term frustrations.

VIRGO [Aug 24-Sep 23] The stars give you a welcome boost this week and help you re-discover your Virgo vim, vigor and verve! So take a break from the madness around you and escape somewhere quiet where you can relax and rejuvenate. The power of imagination is on your side.

LIBRA [Sep 24-Oct 23] Impulse buys now could lead to problems later on. So avoid expensive purchases or major money moves, as you’re inclined to view your current financial situation through rose-colored glasses. In the present climate, slow and steady wins the money race.

SCORPIO [Oct 24-Nov 22] You’re thrust into the spotlight this week. The Sun, Mercury and Jupiter give you a confidence boost, so polish up your public persona and make sure you’re putting on a good show. Things get serious on Sunday when a family member frustrates you.

SAGITTARIUS [Nov 23-Dec 21] With the Sun, Mercury and Jupiter all activating your aspirations zone, it’s time to dream big dreams for the future. Be inspired by Barack Obama “It’s only when you hitch your wagon to something larger than yourself that you realise your true potential.”

CAPRICORN [Dec 22-Jan 20] Avoid being a lone wolf. If you nurture close relationships and network with colleagues, then you can combine your talents on a creative joint project. You’ll have to be patient though. A relationship with a friend or acquaintance could cool, as responsibilities overtake fun.

AQUARIUS [Jan 21-Feb 19] Your bohemian side shines brightly this week, as you inspire others with your quick mind and avant-garde spirit.

Attached Aquarians – you head into exciting territory. You enjoy sharing common interests but you’re also keen to pursue personal projects.

PISCES [Feb 20-March 20] Are you feeling bored to bits with the daily grind? Seek out stimulating people this week, as you celebrate your versatility; shake up your usual routine; and do something different. It’s also a terrific time to express your Good Samaritan side as you nurse a family member.

SURF REPORT with MWP’s man in the water

Well it is five- to six-foot and pumping if you are in Indo at the moment! Just check Air Asia and you can get a return flight for $800. As for here it looks like the devil ESE wind is predicted so I really have no options for you, but get in early in case the wind is slow to get up. Crack out the golf clubs and go for a hit or maybe clean the house! The next ASP contest will be in Tahiti and unless it is big, it can get quite boring to watch. That said, if anyone of us scored one of those barrels you would think your life is complete or your escaped a death trap. Finally we are heading towards the north-east doldrums soon, so whatever you score now will be it for a while. So stop reading and get out there!

FISHING REPORT with Wayne Nilsson from Maroochydore Fishing World

ESTUARY: Catch flathead on live whiting and trolled lures around Goat Island and around the channel markers at Bli Bli. Quality whiting are on the banks off Picnic Point using worms, and at Eudlo Creek mouth on yabbies. Bream up to a kilo can be caught on pillies at the mouth of the Maroochy.

SURF: Beach worms are returning whiting and dart in the low-tide gutters next to the coffee rock at Maroochy Beach. Bream on fowl gut are at Pincushion at the top of the tide. Flathead and whiting are along North Shore with jew and sharks making it interesting.

OFFSHORE: Most of the shallow reefs from Mooloolaba to Caloundra are returning parrot, sweetlip and squire on cut baits and pillies. The Barwon Banks are prolific with snapper, pearl perch and amberjack on whole squid and floated pillies.

Grab spanner crabs due east of the Gneerings.

FRESHWATER: Most local dams have come alive with golden perch, bass and silver perch with both shrimps and lures working. Somerset is having a good run of bass and golden perch on deep divers – the best colours are red and black or green and yellow.
