This week From the editor Last Friday night, I was lucky enough to attend the 2016 Lifeline Steel Magnolia Award event at Newcastle City Hall and what an inspiring occasion it was.

This year, 14 women were nominated for the award with judges having the unenviable task of whittling that down to a final seven.

Hearing about these seven women - Jodie Bell, Mary Maughan, Diane Ball, Carolyn Bear, Carmel Kaczmar, Teigan Power and Cory Newman, I was moved by the tireless and often thankless work they do in their communities and how lucky we are to have organisations like Lifeline to recognise these remarkable women.

Speaking of remarkable women, special guest speaker Jessica Rowe spoke openly, honestly and with good humour about her struggles with postnatal depression while NBN's Natasha Beyersdorf, an old uni friend of Jessica's, who MCd the event, discharged her duties with grace and aplomb.

Also a massive congratulations to Jodie Bell who was named Steel Magnolia for 2016 for her tireless work in raising awareness and funds to find a cure for Motor Neurone Disease. Her work, and that of all of the nominees for this year's award truly are an inspiration to us all.

Have a great week.

use cruise control, so it was really incredible,” she said.

“It was easy to drive; I was surprised. And I felt really safe.”

Ms Catley believes the Hunter is the perfect area in which to trial driverless cars.

“Driverless cars are not made-up toys from a science fiction movie,” she said.

“The technology is rapidly advancing and there is a huge opportunity for the Hunter region to capitalise on the emerging driverless car industry.”

Mr Foley echoed Ms Catley’s

Greyhound racing petition gains traction

A petition to reverse the ban against greyhound racing in NSW has drawn 37,000 signatures.

The petition, which originated in Maitland with the local branch of the NSW Greyhounds Breeders Owners and Trainers Association, has circulated the state over the past month and has well surpassed the 10,000-signature benchmark needed to guarantee a parliamentary debate.

Member for Wallsend Sonia Hornery, who, along with other Hunter MPs, has supported 4

the association in its opposition to the ban by helping to get the word out, presented the petition to opposition leader Luke Foley at the rally in Hyde Park on Tuesday.

NSW Greyhounds Breeders Owners and Trainers Association Newcastle and Hunter director, Gary Minter said Ms Hornery would deliver the petition to parliament, which resumes this week.

It has not yet been determined when the matter will be addressed, but Mr Minter says it’s

sentiments. “I think the Hunter’s got all the ingredients to be the hub for the emergence of this industry in Australia,” he said.

“It’s got a skilled workforce, it’s got centres of expertise in the Newcastle Institute of Energy and Research, the CSIRO, the University of Newcastle; and I’ve always said the Hunter must be always looking for the new economic opportunities to grow the smart jobs, and I can’t think of an industry that’s more suited to the future of this region.”

only a matter of time.

“We’re hoping that the premier will see the error in his ways, but he’s certainly being pretty stubborn about it – he’s not backing down,” he said.

The GBOTA is staunchly opposed to the Baird government’s ban, announced last month, which will see greyhound racing operations across the state effectively shut down from 1 July 2017.

Premier Mike Baird moved the ban after a special commission of inquiry found evidence of systematic animal cruelty and injuries to greyhounds.

The report upon which the decision was based found “up to 20% of trainers engage in live baiting and 180 greyhounds a year sustain ‘catastrophic injuries’ during races… that resulted in their immediate deaths”.

But members of the GBOTA throughout the state refute the facts in the report, saying much of the evidence is unsubstantiated.

The ban has generated much uproar from greyhound racers, breeders, owners and punters alike, but it remains to be seen if their efforts will be enough to prevent the industry-wide shutdown.

t’s an image plucked straight out of a science fiction film: people cruising around in driverless cars.

But autonomous vehicles could be coming soon to a road near you in the Hunter, if NSW Opposition Leader Luke Foley is able to realise his vision of the region being a pilot for the testing and development of driverless cars.

Mr Foley was joined by Hunter MPs and state shadow ministers in Newcastle last week, where they led a roundtable discussion at City Hall to advance Labor’s plan to legalise the testing of driverless cars on public roads.

They discussed with industry experts, academics, local businesses and community leaders the possibility of harnessing the Hunter’s expertise in clean technology industries to pioneer the driverless car revolution in NSW. Driverless cars – an industry

Development causes traffic concerns A surge in traffic from new development in Mount Hutton has roused new concerns about an old median strip.

Residents in Nursery Grove say the troubles they already had gaining access and egress to their street have been exacerbated by a higher volume of traffic on Wilsons Road.

At the entrance to their street, on Wilsons Road, sits a median strip, built in 2001, that prevents right-hand turns into and out of Nursery Grove.

Residents leaving the street wishing to go right towards Windale must first turn left into a turning lane that directs traffic into Lake Macquarie Fair shopping centre, and do a U-turn in the carpark before turning left back onto the main road to put them in the other direction.

Kate Phillips says most residents have come to terms with this minor inconvenience, but the sticking point for many is the fact they cannot turn right into their street when coming from Warners Bay. They must first drive about 700 metres towards Windale, turn right into the next available street – Mulga Street – do a U-turn, and wait safely for a break in traffic before turning left back onto Wilsons Road to give them safe, left-hand access to their street.

“I counted about 20 cars while I was waiting there the other day,” Ms Phillips said.

“With all the development, it’s just going to get busier and we’re going to have to spend even longer there. It’s just aggravating.

“Not only that – [cars] fly down there, doing well over the speed limit.”

Once a sleepy suburb, Mount Hutton has been a focal point of development in recent years, with two housing developments currently being built at either end of Wilsons Road.

There is also an extension of Coles’ Lake Macquarie Fair supermarket planned, adding to residents’ traffic concerns.

But Lake Macquarie councillor Jason Pauling (who Ms Phillips has been liaising with) said while he sympathised with the residents, the council could not go pulling out median strips every time someone was slightly inconvenienced.

“I do feel for them, but council has obviously put that infrastructure in for a reason – for greater safety and greater good,” Cr Pauling said.

“Before that median strip was put in, residents were making an

illegal turn across a right-hand turn lane [into Lake Macquarie Fair] to head towards Windale. When there was less traffic, if they broke the law no one cared.”

Cr Pauling said driving towards Windale and doing a U-turn might cost residents a few more minutes, but it was infinitely safer.

news Specialist disability housing a nursing home alternative Non-profit organisation the Summer Foundation, which aims to provide permanent housing solutions for people with disabilities to prevent them from ending up in nursing homes, launched its Hunter Housing Demonstration Project last week.

The foundation bought 10 units peppered throughout the new, 110unit Belle Apartments complex on the highway, in which one of the units the Lewis family now lives.

The apartments are specially designed to meet the needs of people with disabilities.

Some of their features include adjustable kitchen benchtops, lowline bathroom sinks and sensoroperated doors.

Tania said her new apartment had given her some of her independence back.

Founder and chief executive officer Di Winkler said, at the launch, the foundation hoped to demonstrate alternatives to people with disabilities living in nursing homes.

“In the long term our vision is that in all new housing developments, a percentage of housing would be routinely built for people with disabilities, rather than continuing to build segregated, non-specialist housing,” Dr Winkler said.

NEWCASTLE WKLY Pub (4/7)

fter suffering a stroke, Tania Lewis was living in a nursing home in Cooranbong for three long, gruelling years before she was reunited with her family.

“All I ever thought about was getting home,” Tania said.

“I never gave up on that – that dream was all that kept me going.”

Through the National Disability Insurance Scheme, Tania got the supports she needed to move into a Bonnells Bay rental property last year with her husband Leonard and daughter Faith.

But it still wasn’t right. “It had narrow hallways; it wasn’t really accessible for a chair,” Tania said.

Eight weeks ago, the Lewis’ prayers were answered, when they become some of the first tenants to move into specialist disability housing in Belmont.

Go for gold: students farewell Westcott Some of Scott Westcott’s youngest fans gathered last week to farewell the Adamstown athlete ahead of his Olympic debut in Rio. Students at New Lambton Public School, which Scott’s sons Noah (year 2) and Finn (kindergarten) attend, gave him a grand send-off with an assembly in the school’s hall.

Scott made a speech to the students, in which he talked about persistence and courage in the face of obstacles.

He told of how he never once gave up in the 16 years it took him to reach his goal of making the Australian Olympic team.

Scott first attempted to qualify for the Sydney 2000 Olympics, but he narrowly missed out. He tried again in 2004 to qualify for Athens.

At the time he was ranked fourth in Australia, but the Olympic committee only selected three track athletes that year.

“I was tired, but I kept on going,” Scott said. “I trained every day, sometimes twice a day, for another four years.”

Scott missed out, only marginally, again in 2008 for the Beijing Olympics and in 2012 for the London Olympics.

“I thought, I’ve had enough, I’m going to retire,” he said.

“And then I had this idea. I thought maybe, because I kept on trying to keep fit, maybe I’ve got one more good race in me.”

Last year, on his 40th birthday, Scott qualified for Rio at the 2015 Beijing Marathon, which he ran in two hours, 15 minutes and 30 seconds.

“After 16 years of trying, I finally made my goal,” he told the students.

New Lambton South Public School will be rooting for Scott when he competes on August 21 – the final day of the Olympics, which kick off on August 5 in Brazil.

Scott joins 16 other Hunter athletes on the 418-strong Australian team.

They are: Richie Campbell (water polo), Matt Dawson (hockey), Katie Rae Ebzery (basketball), Karsten Fosterling (rowing), Thomas Fraser-Holmes (swimming), Benn Harradine (athletics), Iain Jensen (sailing), Damien Martin (basketball), Leilani Mitchell (basketball), Simon Orchard (hockey), Nathan Outteridge (sailing), Daniel Repacholi (shooting), Aaron Royle (triathlon), Will Ryan (sailing), Spencer Turrin (rowing), and Emily Van Egmond (football).

Alfie and Boaz Bonar are the Youth Ambassadors at the upcoming Run Newcastle event this weekend. Photo: Jamie Wicks

hen it comes to seemingly boundless energy, there are few who are as full of beans as Newcastle identical sixyear-old twins Alfie and Boaz Bonar.

“They’re not outdoor kids – they are always out and about. If they’re not out running, they’re on their skateboards. They’ve both got huge amounts of energy,” dad Trent told Newcastle Weekly.

To that end, the youngsters have been named youth ambassadors for the upcoming Cotton On Foundation event Run Newcastle.

“It has come as quite a big surprise,” Trent said.

“The excitement is pretty high in our house at the moment – the boys have been asking ‘is sit tomorrow’ nearly every day and we’ve been saying ‘just one more sleep.’ They just can’t wait.”

The boys join fellow ambassadors Carrie Bickmore, Tegan Martin and Tim Robards for the event where 100% of registration fees go towards the refurbishment of the adolescent ward at the John Hunter Children’s Hospital.

There will be a 12-kilometre fun run and a six-kilometre fun run or walk as well as a one-

kilometre race for children, aged four to 12 as well as junior and toddler runs.

With both boys champing at the bit to get running, Alfie said it was the fitness aspect of running that excited him.

“I like running because you can run with your parents and I like going fast,” he said.

“I also like it because it’s good for your health.”

For Boaz, the opportunity to do what he loves while raising much-needed funds for sick kids was an added bonus, adding that the cheers from spectators would only encourage him to do better “It feels good to help raise money for the sick kids in hospital,” Boaz said. “When people cheer me on I’ll smile, wave and run faster.”

Since its first race day in 2013, Run Newcastle, an initiative of the Cotton On Foundation, has raised more than $372,000.

Run Newcastle will be on at Newcastle Foreshore on Sunday 7 August. For more information and to register, visit runaustralia. com.au/run-newcastle/ - Stephen Bisset

Participants sought for food study

McWilliam’s Mount Pleasant chief winemaker Jim Chatto.

Hunter Valley wine on national stage A Hunter Valley winery has been named winery of the year at a prestigious awards ceremony earlier this week.

McWilliam’s Mount Pleasant, Hunter Valley was named as the best in the region by revered wine critic James Halliday in the 2017 Wine Companion Awards at an event that coincided with the release of his respected, 776-page annual Wine Companion.

McWilliam’s Mount Pleasant chief winemaker Jim Chatto told Newcastle Weekly he was overjoyed with the award.

“We’re all very excited about it

here,” he said. “We’ve known about it for some time so it’s good to actually be able to talk about it.

“In essence, this award could possibly be the biggest and most significant acknowledgement the winery has ever received.”

Chatto said it was the range of wines submitted for the awards that got the winery over the line.

“The major factor in the award would be the breadth and depth of the wines submitted,” he said.

‘We had a great vintage here in 2014 and we’ve been adding new wines and focusing on what’s great about

Now in stock

Mount Pleasant but, at the end of the day, the products still have to stack up and, thankfully for us, they did.”

While this is a major boon to Mount Pleasant, Chatto added that the award is also reflective of the breadth of viticulture talent in the Hunter Region.

“We really do have some great talent in this region – I’d say the Hunter has been making some of the best reds we’ve made since the 1960s,” he said.

“The Hunter is really staking its claim again nationally.”

WINTER FAIR ROAD CLOSURES

GREATER ASKS WHAT DOES FAIR MEAN TO KIDS Wallsend school students have been asked what the Wallsend Winter Fair means to them.

The question has been posed

by Greater Bank as part of its Wallsend Winter Fair School Art Competition.

Greater Bank Wallsend branch manager Jodie Daly said entries have closed and the quality, this year,was very impressive with students using parades, dance exhibitions and market stalls as inspiration. Students have the chance to win some great prizes.

The school with the most entries will win $500. There will also be Greater Bank youth savings accounts for the best three artworks.

The Wallsend Town Business Association is also giving away 10, $20 prizes to age group finalists.

Everyone who entered will receive a $5 savings account from Greater Bank and has a chance to win one of

Jodie Daly presenting the $500 prize to St Patrick’s school at last year’s Fair.

eight programs of art classes from Art Mania Studio Wallsend.

Last year, St Patricks school won $500 for being the school with the most entries.

“Greater Bank is again getting behind Wallsend Winter Fair because it is a great community event,” Mrs Daly said.

“Art is an important way to reflect on the importance

of community and to bring a community together,” she said.

“Greater Bank is customerowned rather than shareholder owned so our focus is on the local communities in which we operate.”

This is the second year the competition has run. Mrs Daly will announce the winners and present the winning school with its prize at the Fair on August 14.

Sunday 14 August

With the Wallsend Winter Fair just around the corner, The Wallsend Town Business Association would like to alert you to the following road closures and additional foot and vehicle traffic in the area. The following streets and car parks will be closed from 6am to 6pm on Sunday 14 August.

DAMIEN’S LONG ROAD “The show will cover all of the favorites that people expect from me, but there will also be a couple of more obscure tracks thrown in there as well,” he said.

“Over the ten years, I’ve done quite a few songs that have been separate from the albums, so it will be good to dig a few of those up and give them a run.”

Leith’s career is one peppered with highlights –from his time on Idol to working with some of his personal musical heroes such as Joe Melson (co-writer of the Roy Orbison hit Crying) and Sharon Corr and he added there was one particular ‘light-bulb’ moment where he realised he could have a decent crack at this music lark.

“There is always one particular moment that springs to mind,” he explained. “It was the first time I played at the Enmore Theatre in Sydney. When I first came to Australia, I used to walk by the theatre and dream of having the chance of getting on that stage and, when it finally happened, it was such an amazing feeling.”

t’s hard to believe that it has been ten years since singer Damien Leith captured the heart of the nation on Australian Idol. However, since his breakout stint, Leith has definitely eclipsed his reality TV star persona with eight studio albums, two novels and an ARIA and Helpmann awards under his belt. To celebrate the auspicious anniversary, Leith will be hitting the road, later this month, for a mammoth 35-date national tour, which will kick off in Newcastle.

In a case of ‘time flies when you’re having fun’, Leith told Newcastle Weekly he couldn’t believe the milestone had rolled around already.

“This has got to be the fastest ten years in the history of time,” he laughed.

“It really has gone by so fast, but it’s an occasion that’s definitely worth celebrating.”

Leith added that the celebratory shows would be full of favorites such as his stirring renditions of Hallelujah, Unchained Melody, Message to My Girl, and Creep, with a few rarer tunes and insightful stories from a decade on the road.

Some of the nation’s best riders will hit the Hunter next weekend.

High octane action Some of Australia’s best dirt track motorcycle riders – some from as far away as Townsville and Adelaide – will descend on Barleigh Ranch at Eagleton for the 2016 staging of the Australian Senior Dirt Track Championships.

Sponsored by Chris Watson Motorcycles Yamaha and supported by the Port Stephens Council, the championship meeting will be staged on Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 August.

There will be nine classes of competition – six two-wheel classes, the dirt track sidecars and two classes of ATVs (quads).

Dirt track racing is a great spectacle for fans who can see the entire track, and when an Australian Championship is on the line fast, exciting action is guaranteed.

Given the great history of dirt track racing around the Hunter region it is surprising that this annual championship meeting has not been staged at Barleigh Ranch since 2006, and before that it was in 1984.

Hunter fans will get a long overdue look at some of the nation’s best, gathered in the one place on the same weekend as all of last year’s winners will be there to defend their titles, but none will find it easy given the quality and depth in the entry list in all classes.

Luke Richards from Singleton won three classes last year, denied another by his good friend Marty McNamara from Gunnedah, while Adelaide teenager Ty Lynch will be looking to step up from his Under 19 class win.

Queenslanders, sidecar duo of Adam and Graham Liebke and Briony Hendrickson in the womens class and local ATV rider Matthew Griffiths will also be defending their titles.

Former world champion Troy Bayliss, veteran Hunter rider Paul Caslick and gun Brisbane youngster Jarred Brook are among other favored riders.

Action on both Saturday and Sunday commences at 10am.

Enter to WIN Newcastle Weekly has three passes to the Australian Senior Dirt Track Championships on Saturday 13 and Sunday 14 August to give away.

To enter, email competitions@newcastleweekly.com.au with ‘Dirt Track’ in the subject line. Tell us your name, full contact details and in which two years was the Australian Senior Dirt Track Championships last staged at Barleigh Ranch. Entries close and winners drawn at 9am on Wednesday 10 August. One entry per person.

“It’s great that we’ve got the young people in the show as well, mixed in with us oldies because that’s how you ensure that these stories and songs will continue to be told.”

Andrew, who was inducted into the Northern Territory Indigenous Music Awards Hall of Fame , won a Jimmy Little lifetime achievement award at the 2008 Deadlys and was a recipient of an Order of Australia medal said that while, she has clocked up countless kilometers on Australian highways and byways since she first stepped onstage in the late 1960s, her passion for performance is still as strong as ever.

“I’m 70 next year and I have to use a stool these days because my back’s gone, but the voice is still there and as long as that’s there I’ll keep doing it.”

MIXING IT UP AT THE STAG Newcastle outfit The Buzzard Mix make it nigh on impossible to stay stationary during one of their shows. Playing a sweet concoction of old school soul, ska and reggae, they draw inspiration from a long line reaching back to the original Jamaican ska outfit The Skatalites, through the rocksteady reggae of Toots and the Maytals to the unique dub soul of New Zealand’s Fat Freddy’s Drop.

Start with a solid rock steady rhythm section of Robin Nelson on bass, Shannon Roman on drums and Josh Plummer skanking on guitar.

sounds of Jodie Kell on the keys and you start to feel the bum cheeks of even the staunchest nondancer are eventually going to lift from the barstool. Add some spice with the cranking brass section of Phil Stuckey’s trombone, Jodie Kell’s trumpet and Ingrid Moon’s tenor saxophone to get things moving before the vocals enter the mix with the sweet honeyed voice of Camilla soaring over delicious harmonies. There’s no better recipe for a party, and The Buzzard Mix create a party wherever they play.

From smooth, simple vanilla to rosemary, cayenne pepper and brown sugar, owner and chief ice cream-maker Lyndon Sar (pictured) has thought of it all.

Over the years, Lyndon, who worked in IT for 12 years before he took an interest in ice creamery four years ago, says he has created countless flavour combinations.

TEAM DANNY GREEN GIVEAWAY

TIPS FOR STAYING ON TRACK IN WINTER It’s undeniably harder to keep up your exercise regime in winter, as the days get shorter and mornings colder. But there are ways you can maker it easier on yourself.

Partner up. Find an exercise buddy to attend those morning gym classes with. It’ll be harder to hit the snooze button if you know you’re not only letting yourself down, but your buddy, too.

Enlist the help of a personal trainer. This one works in a similar way to teaming up with a buddy: if there’s someone to push you and hold you accountable, you’ll be less

likely to fall off the wagon.

Reward yourself. You can do this in any season, but it will probably give you more motivation in the colder months to reward yourself for how far you’ve come. Think a new outfit to show off your new body rather than a sweet treat.

Modify your workout routine.

If you simply can’t brave the cold and stick to your usual morning or night workouts (especially if they’re outdoors), why not take the joggers to work and use your lunch break to go for a brisk midday walk.

Concerned at the state of men’s health in this country, world champion boxer - Danny Green – has developed a health and fitness program aimed squarely at the average, everyday champion.

Team Danny Green (TDG) is an online program featuring simple and achievable food and exercise plans designed by some of Australia’s top trainers and nutritionists and guided by the philosophies of one of Australia’s most respected athletes.

Green is quick to set TDG apart from the myriad of other fad diets and fitness products that saturate

the market. “We’ve made things really simple so anyone can fit exercising into their daily routine - and you can still enjoy a beer or a chocolate bar at the right times within reason.”

Visit teamdannydreen.com.au

Enter to WIN Newcastle Weekly has one Team Danny Green prize pack (including a subscription to Danny’s nine-week program and a t-shirt – RRP $225)) to giveaway.

To enter, email competitions@newcastleweekly.com.au with ‘Danny Green’ in the subject line. Tell us your name, full contact details and your favourite way to get fit.

Get ready for spring

Get creative with limited kitchen space.

MAKE EVERY INCH COUNT When kitchen space is at a premium, storing all your crockery and gadgets can become a delicate balancing act. Get organised and utilise every inch of space with these tricky storage tips.

Easy-grab storage bins. Pick up some wire baskets or plastic tubs to keep on top of cupboards. These are great for storing items you may not need often, but still need easy access to.

Utilise vertical space. This applies to pretty much anywhere throughout your kitchen,

from the inside of the pantry to the outside of cupboards. Place hooks to hang utensils or a magnetic strip to keep all your knives in one place.

Surprise space. Opt for a hollow island bench with shelves in it to store all those bits and bobs you’ll need on hand when chopping, mixing or rolling.

Shelve it. Make up with shelves what you lack in cabinet space. It’s also a quirky way to display your crockery.

It’s countdown time to spring and, this year, it will be most welcome.

IN THE GARDEN Even though we have JUDY SHARPE had the odd warm day, Mother Nature is tricking us and it is far too early to consider fertilising lawns or feeding indoor plants.

If you are in a frost-free area, rose pruning should have been completed - if you haven’t yet fed your roses, try something a little different, mix two cups of blood and bone with half a cup of superphosphate, plus a spoonful of dolomite.

Citrus maintenance is also important. Plants grown in containers should only be fertilised with a slow release such as Bounceback Feed ground grown citrus with poultry manure applied under the drip line, followed several weeks later by citrus food. Both applications should be watered before and after fertilising.

Never feed lawns until the grass is actively growing which means being mowed. Weeds should be sprayed now before fertilising at the end of the month.

Prepare gardens for spring by fertilising the entire garden with the appropriate product, whether it be cow manure or slow release pelletts.

It is tomato time. Prepare beds for summer vegetables by preparing with cow manure at least one week before planting.

Renovating vs rebuilding Prestigious award for LJ Hooker veteran

R

esearch shows that moving house is one of life’s most stressful experiences.

Second to that is probably renovating a house.

Yet all of us will contemplate multiple moves and even most likely a renovation at some time in our lives.

But few of us think of a third alternative: knocking down our current home to rebuild a new, modern residence.

Identifying the right option for you comes down to a range of factors, starting with time.

Managing contractors and renovation is a big job and can take a lot of time. It’s important to assess whether you have the ability to manage this process over several months.

When you love the area you live in and your neighbours, extending or renovating your existing home is usually a better idea than moving.

However, with many rebuilding projects, there can be hidden elements that only come to light once the works have started on site.

This can include hidden asbestos that is often sheeted or clad over, or foundations that are subsiding or not adequate to take the extension.

Termites may have caused

With Rawson Homes General Manager Hunter, Peter Slominski.

extensive damage to the structure of your house, electrical wiring may not meet the current regulations or service pipes may no longer comply.

No amount of homework can always uncover all of these hidden items, not to mention the costs required to rectify it.

Considering a knock-down rebuild can be a better option.

It will avoid the aforementioned problems and can be an effective option that can cost less than renovation/extensions combo.

Suddenly you’ll find yourself in your dream family home in a neighbourhood you already love.

A great home loan rebate.

August 5 – 11

PICK OF THE WEEK Ali Friday, SBS, 8.30pm, M (2001) He’s young. He’s handsome. He’s fast. He can’t possibly be beat.

Director Michael Mann re-creates the boxing great’s life (circa 196474) with the customary skill and sophistication that made The Insider and Heat such gripping epics. In style and content, this jazz-fuelled biopic literally floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee as it highlights the pivotal incidents that made Cassius Clay and Muhammad Ali (a justifiably Oscar-nominated Will Smith, above) such a compelling force of nature.

Friday

Win A Date With Tad Hamilton!

Night At The Museum Saturday, TEN, 7pm, PG (2006) If you’ve ever wanted to see a prehistoric man spray a fire-extinguisher in a homo sapien’s face, here’s your chance.

Bumbling security guard Larry (Ben Stiller, above) accidentally lets loose an ancient curse that causes all the wax figures, animals and insects on display at New York’s Museum of Natural History to come to life and wreak havoc – think the animal mayhem of Jumanji blended with the historical fantasy of Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure. Cameos abound, including Stiller’s pal Owen Wilson as a cowboy.

Friday, ELEVEN, 8.30pm, PG (2004) Kate Bosworth is the lucky girl in question in this romantic comedy from Aussie Robert Luketic (Legally Blonde).

Through a competition, small-town check-out girl Rosalee scores a dream date with Hollywood hunk Tad Hamilton (Josh Duhamel, right).

Unexpectedly, the movie star becomes spellbound by her wholesome allure, and escapes the limelight to court Rosalee back in West Virginia.

10 August 1989

ARIES: MAR 21 - APR 20

CANCER: JUNE 22 - JUL 22

LIBRA: SEPT 24 - OCT 23

CAPRICORN: DEC 22 - JAN 20

Over the last few months, have you felt as if you've been treading water or even going backwards? Have there been power struggles or setbacks with major projects? Thankfully Mars is now in your 9th house making you feel more positive, passionate and productive about life and the universe.

The chances are that both you and your partner can make savings on unnecessary expenses and relieve yourselves of unwanted debts. Don’t fight about this because everyone gets themselves into situations every so often which are then balanced by the occasional windfall.

Issues surrounding friendship and trust are very important to you this month. Venus is in your 12th house making it rather difficult to put your feelings to one side, especially if someone close is upsetting you.

However, try not to take offence where none is intended.

Relationship issues, how to help someone, where to draw the line and what to say or not to say with a difficult matter will require sensitive judgement. It's difficult to say no to someone you love but sometimes it’s better for everyone in the long run.

TAURUS: APR 21 - MAY 21

LEO: JUL 23 - AUG 23

SCORPIO: OCT 24TH - NOV 22

The planets stimulate your communication and relationship zones. Passions are ignited and social media is also favoured and the more creative your approach, the more positive the response will be. However, you need to resist the temptation to be a possessive or bossy Bull and be more sensitive.

Happy Birthday Leo! Jupiter moves into Libra bringing improved relationships with your children, siblings and loved ones. This is also the ideal time to don your detective cap as you dig up a mystery, uncover a secret or research a topic that has always fascinated you.

Jupiter in Virgo is igniting your international connections and it is time to stop contemplating situations and to start being proactive!

Partnerships of all kinds will need a bit of extra work and the more you try to control others, the more difficult situations will be.

Action planet Mars is in your social sphere and if you are looking for professional or business opportunities, it is your friends who will be pointing you in the right direction. Dealings with male colleagues, clients and customers in a dynamic way will lead to positive outcomes.

GEMINI: MAY 22 - JUNE 21

VIRGO: AUG 24 - SEPT 23

SAGITTARIUS: NOV 23 - DEC 21

PISCES: FEB 20 - MAR 20

Jupiter is in Virgo and friends and colleagues are going to have a strong influence on you. Relations with other people could swing from one extreme to the other; kind words and deeds will touch your heart whilst thoughtless comments from others could hurt your feelings.

Saturn is Retrograde in your sign, which can make you feel as if you are reversing through life and have the worries of the world on your shoulders. It’s time to take a step back and view your life from a positive prospective. Let caution be your watchword.

The younger generation will be a big focus in your life, whether this means helping your children with homework or mentoring younger co-workers.

Your creativity will be firing and you will be able to provide them with some amazing insights. Enjoy pampering yourself as you need it now.

Singles may be drawn to revisit an old romance - but do you seriously want to do that dance again? There may be an unexpected trip and a lot to do with relatives and siblings who could have some issues in their lives they will need your support with.

SLASHER SEASON 1 DVD Slasher tells the gripping story of a young woman who finds herself as the centrepiece in a series of horrifying copycat murders based on the grisly killings of her parents.

Born amid a great tragedy, Sarah Bennett (Katie McGrath – Jurassic World, Dracula, Merlin) has spent many years feeling cast adrift. But when she returns to Waterbury, her place of birth, she is determined to turn her life around. She has her husband, Dylan (Brandon Jay McLaren – Graceland, The Killing), a man who loves her more than anyone ever has, and is focused on her art, having opened a gallery in her old hometown.

Moving into the house where her parents were murdered may seem odd, but it’s free, thereby giving this young couple the financial stability to pursue their dreams.

She may be at the scene of the crime, but Sarah is starting over.

Enter to WIN Newcastle Weekly has five copies of Slasher Season One on DVD to give away.

To enter, email competitions@newcastleweekly.com.au with ‘Slasher’ in the subject line. Tell us your name, full contact details and two of the show’s stars. Entries close and winners drawn at 9am on Friday 12 August.
