Newcastle Weekly contents

thursday 02 march 2017

This week...

From the editor Given that it seemed like only yesterday that I was putting up the Christmas tree, the fact that I am writing a column for our 2 March edition comes as quite a shock. I remember, when I was a child, complaining about the length of the school term or of being bored during the school holidays was usually wet with a chorus of “enjoy it while it lasts because time will fly by when you’re older” from my parents. Oh, how right they were.

This week, on page 41, we have a story about the vibrant and colourful Beaumont Street Carnivale, which kicks off on Saturday 12 March. Aside from being a great day out for the whole family, the Carnivale is also a celebration of the rich cultural diversity that exists in the cosmopolitan suburb – something I think should definitely be celebrated.

As a proud Hamilton resident, one of the things that I love about my suburb is that my son, who has lived there since birth, has been interacting with myriad cultures since before he could walk. I for one think he is all the richer for it.

Speaking of vibrant celebrations, make sure you get along to the Newcastle Regional Show, this weekend, and please keep your fingers crossed that the heavens remain well and truly closed for the duration.

Have a great week.

ENQUIRE TODAY

Reverend Tim Costello speaks at an Alliance for Gambling Reform press conference.

Pub plan fuels fears $2.95 million proposal for a pub at the heart of the new Huntlee estate in North Rothbury has raised a red flag for a national gambling advocacy group.

The Alliance for Gambling Reform is contesting the development application, lodged by an unidentified applicant and currently before Cessnock City

Council, for a late-trading pub, bottle shop and bistro on Wine Country Drive, on the basis that the pub could have as many as 30 poker machines.

It argues the poker machines could have devastating social impacts, particularly when mixed with alcohol. Already, there is one poker machine for every 47 adults

in Newcastle.

As a community, we spend $423 million a year on playing the pokies.

During the 2015-16 financial year, each Newcastle resident, on average, lost $1054 to poker machines.

In Lake Macquarie, that figure was $528 per person, while in Maitland, Port Stephens and Cessnock those figures were $550, $653 and $536, respectively.

To add to these statistics with another poker machine-laden pub in Huntlee is “immoral”, says former World Vision chief executive officer and brother of former Australian treasurer Peter Costello, Reverend Tim Costello.

Reverend Costello joined the alliance in holding a press conference, last week, as part of a campaign to galvanise community support in opposing the plan.

“I’ve never been a prohibitionist; I’ve always believed people have the right to play [pokies], but I was quite struck [by the fact] that pokies

BEFORE

seem to addict so many people, so profoundly, so quickly.

“I convinced my brother, Peter Costello, to do a productivity commission report in 1999 and discovered that 42.3 cents in every dollar going through a poker machine comes from someone addicted. These machines are built for addiction. “[This proposal] will milk millions of dollars; there will be marriages that break down, businesses that go bankrupt.”

There is some good news: the alliance has collaborated with the Department of Education to develop an educational kit on the impact gambling, which will be taught to students in years 7 to 10 from 4 April. In the meantime, the alliance is encouraging those opposed to the Huntlee pub proposal to write to Cessnock City Council in the hope that the matter will escalate to public debate.

Walka Grange Lifestyle Village advertising moment

Downsize your home, not your lifestyle In this day and age, when life moves at a fantastic speed and we are getting more and more caught up with our own lives, a sense of community is something that, unfortunately, is disappearing. This is not the case at Walka Grange Lifestyle Village, where community is King. alka Grange is a resort-style gated over-55s community that provides the opportunity to downsize your home, without compromising your lifestyle.

Located in Rutherford, Walka Grange is located close to the convenience of Maitland and all of the activities and amenities the city has to offer.

“There was definitely a need for a gated retirement community in this area,” Village manager Barbara O’Neil said.

“Previously a lot of communities like this were constructed in remote areas – there was no access to doctors or hospitals and when you get into areas like Newcastle and Sydney, the prices are astronomical.

“The driving aim of Walka Grange is affordable luxury and I think they’ve delivered – it’s a quality build and we provide everything you need.”

The first thing that strikes you upon driving through the gates, are the generously sized streets that meander their way around the site. Streets that are lined with immaculately presented, beautifully fitted-out, thoughtfully

planned and architecturally designed two or three-bedroom homes.

The second thing you’ll notice is the palpable sense of community that exists within the gates.

“It’s a very mixed demographic here – from sub-60s to our oldest resident who is 92,” Barbara said.

“And the sense of community that is fostered here is just fantastic – people really do come together when there is a need.

If the 24/7 gate security, onsite management, complete home and garden maintenance, community bus service, direct-connect 24/7 emergency phone service, putting green, multiple BBQ facilities and spacious green areas isn’t enough, well, have a look Walka Grange’s Clubhouse. Fit to rival some leagues clubs, the beautifully appointed club rooms feature myriad activity options such as a full bar, commercial kitchen, library, a multi-purpose lounge area, art and craft rooms, an indoor pool, and computer and TV rooms (to name a few), this community centre has to be seen to be believed.

So, if you’re looking to downsize your home

without compromising your lifestyle or security, contact Walka Grange today.

“The residents here really love the security and friendship – here, they’ve got friends around all the time,” Barbara said.

news Life Without Barriers Practice Leader for Children, Families and Young People, Jessica Cocks

Call for parental inclusion A more parent-inclusive approach to child protection and foster care is urgently needed in the Hunter Region and in Australia, a new report has recommended.

The report, compiled by University of Newcastle researchers in partnership with Life Without Barriers, suggests parents and families whose children are removed and placed in care should play more of an active role in their child’s life.

10

Research suggests that allowing the parent or guardian to have input on their child’s upbringing, including where they attend school and their religious orientation, could help the child feel less isolated and disconnected from their family.

Life Without Barriers Practice Leader for Children, Families and Young People, Jessica Cocks, who was on the research team

that compiled the report, said, sometimes, children needed to be placed in care for their safety, but that didn’t mean they should never see their parents. “[Children] deserve to keep those relationships with their parents; they have a right to that,” she said.

With rates of children in care growing in the Hunter Region, Ms Cocks said it was high time for a new approach.

She said that, through things like more supervised care and greater input in their child’s life, parents could help their children live a more stable life while in care.

“With these relationships in place, we know these kids do better,” she said.

“The levels of involvement will be different depending on a child’s needs, but we’re suggesting families can offer a lot more than what the system allows them to offer.”

Penalty rate cuts “massive blow” Federal member for Newcastle Sharon Claydon has branded the Fair Work Comissimon’s decision to cut penalty rates as “a massive blow” to working Novocastrians.

In a landmark decision, handed down last Thursday, the Fair Work Commission stated that Sunday penalty rates will be cut for employees in the hospitality, retail and fast food sectors.

Ms Claydon said she was “deeply disappointed” with the decision.

“This is a massive blow for hundreds of thousands of low-paid workers who rely on Sunday penalty rates just to get by,” Ms Claydon said.

“We know that the people who are most likely to be hurt will be young workers, women, people from culturally diverse communities and jobseekers trying to break into the employment market.”

The Levee Central Maitland advertising moment

You’re welcome at The Levee The heart of Maitland is definitely changing. When you take the time to see everything that The Levee has to offer, you can't really argue with that.

T

he former Maitland Heritage Mall in High Street, Central Maitland has been transformed into a shared vehicle and pedestrian space. The stock-standard pavers have been replaced with hand-cut stone.

There are bursts of green, with semi-mature trees taking root and the space is dotted with seating that is a mix of steel, softened by rough sawn timbers.

The Shared Zone opened over a year ago, and you can see, as you walk through the space, that it’s not just the public area that has changed.

Looking up, there’s the glare of fresh paint on so many of the heritage building façades — evidence that the building owners are feeling confident about what’s happening here.

Under the awnings things have evolved, too. Where there were once shopfronts that struggled, at times, to attract businesses, there is now an eclectic mix of national chains and independent traders – some that look like they would be just as at home on Newcastle’s Hunter

or Darby streets.

You may not have thought of Maitland as a coffee hub, but the smell of fresh grounds and the people walking around with their takeaway cups are quickly changing perceptions.

Halfway along the Shared Zone, there’s an open space where construction workers are pouring concrete. This is the Riverlink.

The final piece in the construction puzzle for this space. When complete at the end of this year, an iconic open-square structure will sit here, framing a link between High Street, the Riverside Walk and the banks of the Hunter river. It sounds like something to look forward to but, in the meantime, construction isn’t affecting public access and people are just going about their business.

The Levee is an example of renewal where government and business are investing, side-by-side, to create a gathering space for the community.

news Looming cuts cause strain Have your say

Member for Newcastle Sharon Claydon (centre) campaigns against cuts to university funding with University of Newcastle students Shay O’Callaghan and Hayden Nichols.

With semester one upon us, planned cuts to university funding weigh heavily on students’ shoulders.

Although the Turnbull government scrapped its university fee deregulation plan in the 2016-17 budget, a 20% cut to university funding is still on the table.

Options the government has floated to trim funding include reducing the income threshold for university debt repayments, increasing payments for high-income earners, and introducing partial fee deregulation for certain flagship courses.

Member for Newcastle Sharon Claydon joined students at the University of Newcastle during orientation week, last Wednesday, to campaign against the cuts.

She said there was a lot of anxiety from students about the cost of studying.

“University of Newcastle students are telling me they’re finding it hard enough to just get by as it is,” she said.

“Young people are already facing rising rents and fading hopes of home ownership. At the same time, the government hasn’t lifted a finger to protect the penalty rates that so many students rely on to survive.”

Ms Claydon said the government should invest in education to give students a chance to achieve their dreams.

“It’s obvious that hard work and talent should decide whether you go to university, not your bank balance.”

on intersection upgrade People are invited to provide feedback on proposed $500,000 safety improvements on the Stewart Avenue intersections of Parkway Avenue and Kemp Street in Hamilton South.

Parliamentary secretary for the Hunter Catherine Cusack said work at the intersection would include a 30-metre, westbound right-turn lane on Parkway Ave for motorists turning onto Stewart Ave, and adjusting the traffic lights to provide a right-turn phase. Work on Kemp St would involve installing a raised concrete median strip to permanently ban right-turn movements.

Feedback can be provided before Friday 17 March by emailing Natalie Perfrement at Natalie.Perfrement@ rms.nsw.gov.au or by calling 4908 7738 during business hours.

Maximus Rutherford advertising moment

Your one-stop-shop for hoses, valves and fittings With almost 40 years in the hydraulics industry, Wally Davey has had a few of what he calls “Uber moments”.

Referring, of course, to the revolutionary ride-sharing service that changed the game completely, Wally reflects on how far his own industry has come since he started working under the Enzed brand in Auckland in 1978.

That was the year he assembled the first mobile hose service unit in a red Ford Transit van in his home garage, placing himself at the forefront of the industry and its evolution.

“It was an industry game-changer,” he said.

With his business partner, Wally moved to Australia in 1980 and founded Enzed here.

Four years later, they established the Pirtek brand and drove its growth in Australia, New Zealand, Europe, the UK and USA.

Wally sold out of Pirtek in 2001, but it continues to be a viable brand.

He branched out into other industries, but, last year, he returned to his true love of hydraulics.

Maximus was born in late 2016 – another of Wally’s “Uber moments”.

The Rutherford-based business is a one-stop shop for industrial, hydraulic and irrigation hoses, valves and fittings.

Wally runs the business with two other partners, whose extensive experience in the industrial and irrigation markets, respectively, complement Wally’s expertise in the hydraulics sector.

Wally Davey inside the Maximus Trade Centre in Rutherford.

The shop is designed so that anyone – from a farmer or landowner, to a mining or industrial business – can walk in and find exactly what they need.

Wally said combining everything in a onestop shop would save people time and money.

“The customer today is looking to procure a broader range of products in the one place,” he said.

Consolidating the three marketing channels of trade, wholesales and retail also reduces supplier numbers, travel time and order cycles; and drives down the ever-increasing costs of field service.

Maximus opened last month and is ready for business.

Belmont Baths will soon be safe for swimming once more.

At a public rally, hosted by Belmont & District Residents’ Action Group, on Sunday, Lake Macquarie mayor Kay Fraser indicated the council planned to upgrade the baths, which could take shape in a number of ways.

The existing jetty at Belmont Foreshore, and the rope and polystyrene balls that defined a swimming area and kept boats away, were damaged beyond repair during the April 2015 storm.

Since then, the residents’ action group has collected signatures and submitted to the council 160 letters from community members who want to see the baths reinstated – only this time with shark netting.

Well, their prayers have finally

Belmont & District Residents’ Action Group members Roslyn Lloyd, Geraldine Freihaut, Robin Gordon and Allan Johnson at Belmont Foreshore. Photo: Peter Stoop

been answered.

Cr Fraser said the council’s community planning team was investigating rebuilding the jetty and enclosing the area with ecofriendly shark netting currently being trialled in Western Australia.

The new-and-improved baths could include disabled access ramps.

Councillors are expected to vote on the issue next month.

There is more to the Passmore family’s newest addition than meets the eye.

Loveable labradoodle Azlan is not just a pet; he’s an assistance dog for five-year-old Amber, of Carrington.

Born with moderate autism and sensory issues, Amber often gets overwhelmed and runs away.

Last year, Nicci, who has been Amber’s primary carer since she was one-month-old, looked into getting an assistance dog for Amber, to calm her and remain alert to her needs.

She approached Miracle Assistance Dogs in Maitland and was told there was a five-year wait.

Nicci found she could get a dog through Queensland-based agency Smart Pups for a $25,000 fee, so she started fundraising online through GoFundMe. Then, last month, a miracle happened.

Four million meals served OzHarvest Newcastle delivered its four millionth meal, last week, to Merewether Community Kitchen.

In seven years, the food rescue service has saved 1.3 million kilograms of nourishing surplus food from landfill, and redistributed it

16

to people in need through schools, charities and community groups.

The organisation has made weekly food donations to Merewether Community Kitchen since 2010, providing enough food each week to feed 80 people, including

Merewether Community Kitchen’s Sophia Flegg with OzHarvest driver Shane Johns and volunteer Sarah Lewis.

New options for boat ramp

unaccompanied teenagers, young families and the homeless.

All of this is made possible by OzHarvest Newcastle’s long-term partnership with the nib foundation, which renewed its funding for the seventh consecutive year in 2017.

Thanks to the charitable foundation’s support, OzHarvest Newcastle was able to expand its services, last year, to the Port Stephens area to meet growing demand.

The $50,000 in funding received this year will allow the organisation to expand its reach to at least 10 more charitable agencies, and respond to more ad hoc community calls.

OzHarvest Newcastle relies on donations to keep its wheels moving.

Every $1 donated equates to two nutritious meals.

Lake Macquarie council is investigating four alternative options for Pelican Boat Ramp’s replacement after extensive community consultation. These options are to: build a new boat ramp at the existing location; upgrade the existing boat ramp facilities at Naru Reserve; build a new boat ramp, 300 metres south of the existing one; or build a new boat ramp adjacent to the existing NSW Maritime boat ramp on Pelican Foreshore.

Council’s manager of community planning, John Ferguson, said the community’s preference to retain the swimming area was a deciding factor in the council’s decision to investigate alternative options to its original proposal to relocate it 170 metres south. Findings from these investigations are expected to be put to the council for consideration later this year.

Star on the rise He may only be 14, but rising country music star Finnian Johnson is one to watch.

The Aberdare teen only played his first gig last April, and, already, has put several feathers in his cap.

A singer and guitarist, Finnian graduated from the CMAA Australian Country Music Academy Tamworth in July, and returned in January to perform at the Tamworth Country Music Festival alongside the likes of Lee Kernaghan, Troy Cassar-Daley and Adam Brand.

He was one of eight finalists in the 2016 Gympie Muster Junior Talent Search and the Rising Talent Competition. So, to pick up one of 24 scholarships awarded by Variety – the Children’s Charity at a special presentation at Merewether Surfhouse, last week, was a real honour.

Finnian received $4,000, which will cover the cost of a new PA

system to use at his gigs.

Among the other scholarship recipients was Gillieston Heights Paralympic swimmer Maddi Elliott.

The scholarships are awarded each year to kids who already have a talent or passion, and need a helping hand to reach their goals.

They help cover costs like training fees, accommodation and equipment.

sport Me Unlimited! participants with Newcastle Knights players at Nobbys Beach.

Surfing promotes wellbeing Young people carved up the waves with Newcastle Knights players, last week, to mark the launch of a new program to help break the cycle of youth homelessness.

Wallsend-based youth homelessness prevention service, Path 2 Change, has partnered with nib foundation to develop the

Me Unlimited! program.

The program aims to empower at-risk youth to better manage mental illness through physical activity.

It combines weekly group fitness, life skills workshops, and technology in the form of fitness trackers, to set and monitor personal goals.

“This practical and engaging

way of addressing mental health challenges can also have much wider social health benefits, both in prevention and management,” nib foundation executive officer Amy Tribe said.

Hosted by Surfest, the surf session at Nobbys Beach saw key Knights stars like Nathan Ross get outdoors and enjoy the sunshine with Me Unlimited! program participants.

Ross said physical activity played a major role in staying positive and healthy.

“It’s great to get involved and help young local people who have faced some struggles,” he said.

“Homelessness is a complex issue, but by taking little steps like getting outdoors and [being] involved in programs like Me Unlimited!, we can help make positive changes.”

Visit path2change.org.au for more information on Path 2 Change and its services.

Community vision crystalises The group behind plans to get the Newcastle Knights into the community’s hands, announced their financial and business model this week.

Under a non-distributing cooperative, the group aims to raise an initial $20 million, with up to 40,000 founding owners or shareholders.

Each share would cost $500.

The plan would see increased spending on elite development, grassroots development, improved science and elite recruitment by investing and shareholders would also be given benefits that include a range of tailored packages including discounted goods and services, co-owner discounts from selected businesses, one-season membership and a game-day seat to the equivalent of $125 seating per share purchase.

THE FEMMES ARE BACK

F

ollowing on from a sold-out tour last year, US 90s indie pop heroes Violent Femmes will be back on Australian soil for their most extensive Oz jaunt since 2005 – and Newcastle is on the list.

Bass player Brian Ritchie told Newcastle Weekly that the band responsible for such indie standards as Blister in the Sun, Kiss Off, Country Death Song and Add It Up, had been in love with Australia since their first visit – so much so, in fact, that Ritchie himself became an Australian in 2004 and now resides in Hobart.

“We came down there for the first time in ’84 and just fell in love with the place,” he said.

“And given that every show on the last tour sold out, shows that the feeling might be mutual which is just great."

Since releasing their first, self-titled album in 1983, the Femmes' unmistakable folk-tinged

38

rock sound has propelled them to iconic indie rock status (up there with the likes of the Pixies) thanks to such genre defining sets as Hallowed Ground, The Blind Leading the Naked, and Why Do Birds Sing?

For Ritchie, it was frontman Gordon Gano’s musical naivety, that set the band apart, right out of the gate.

“Gordon had never been in a band before or even played with a rhythm section so he was a musical blank slate and there were very few preconceived notions of what a band should be” After 16 years away from the studio, the band released a comeback album last year We Can Do Anything and Brian said it was like the band had never been away.

“Gordon had this suitcase of cassettes – and we ploughed through that. It was great fun.”

- Stephen Bisset

MATHISKE BRINGS THE BIG SOUND

Newcastle-based guitar maestro Bruce Mathiske will return to the Lizotte’s Lambton stage this weekend but, this time around, aside from performing a best-of solo set, Bruce will also be joined by an orchestra of 10 guitarists who will be playing pieces specifically arranged and composed by Bruce.

The show is a live adjunct to his 2014 release, The Mathiske Suites for Guitar and Orchestra.

Having been described as ‘the

authentic guitar virtuoso’ Bruce had put his live shows and touring on hold for the last 12 months to focus his attention on composing, mentoring and teaching, but is now champing at the bit to get back on stage.

With a career spanning three decades, Bruce has delighted audiences around the world with not just his phenomenal level of technical brilliance, but more importantly, with his instinctive ability to absorb and understand, then master and consummately deliver just about any style of music you could think of. It is clear that Bruce Mathiske’s eclectic music influences have evolved into a style all his own. From the Mediterranean to Ireland – from Latin America to Australia – there aren’t many corners of the globe in which Bruce hasn’t cast his musical ear.

Catch Bruce Mathiske at Lizotte’s Lambton on Saturday 4 March.

IT’S CARNIVALE! Hamilton will celebrate its rich cultural diversity when the 2017 Beaumont Street Carnivale kicks off this month.

More than 20,000 people are expected to descend on Hamilton for the popular event and Hamilton Business Chamber president Nathan Errington said people could expect a full program of fun, food and family activities.

“Hamilton will, once again, come alive with colour and energy, celebrating rich diversity and culture that is underpinned by the suburb’s modern cosmopolitan profile,” he said.

The event will be held along Beaumont Street, between Tudor and Donald streets, with an additional entertainment zone in the Gallipoli Legion Club laneway,

featuring big bands, swing and jazz performances.

There will be three stages with live headline acts performing throughout the day, including former X Factor contestant Roshani, reggae artist King B Fine, indigenous and non-indigenous dancers from The Hunter School of the Performing Arts, with their troupe Millabah, and Southern Fire Entertainment, who will conjure the flavours of Rio with sequined Samba dancing.

Oakfield Ranch will be bringing camels adorned in Moroccanthemed accessories, and cooking demonstrations will fill the streets with the aromas of global cuisines.

Event Cinemas will create a touch of Hollywood, complete with popcorn, movie tickets and special guests on the red carpet.

Beaumont Street Carnivale will be on Saturday 12 March from 10am to 5pm.

COUNTRY AT HEART

cover story

When the tiara comes off, and the R.M Williams boots come on, Casey-Lee Rebellato is your average, 19-year-old country girl at heart.

Newcastle’s 2016 showgirl Casey-Lee Rebellato lives and breathes rural life. Photo: Peter Stoop

Growing up on an acreage in Mount Hutton with five horses, Newcastle’s 2016 showgirl loves rural life.

“I eat, sleep and breathe horses, ever since I was a little girl,” she said.

Casey-Lee has attended the Newcastle Regional Show every year since she was about six years old.

“Each year I look forward to experiencing the show all over again; it’s my favourite time of year,” she said.

“It’s special in a way that only people from Newcastle can appreciate.”

As a young girl, Casey-Lee had always admired the horse-riding events at the show.

Then, last year, she entered in the hacking division (in which, incidentally, she won four firstplace titles, two seconds and a third).

While registering her horses, one of the workers at the show office suggested she enter the show’s flagship Showgirl Competition. “[The competition] was a lot of fun, but the entire time I had no expectations of winning, right up

Divalina’s Wallsend

r Sa l e

until they called out the reserve winner.

“I thought, I wonder who got first place, when they called out my name. My mum burst into tears.”

In the week leading up to the show, CaseyLee and the other showgirl entrants attended several events that measured their confidence, presentation, ambition, general and rural knowledge, and public speaking skills.

Casey-Lee was crowned the winner before the show opened. As part of her duties as the 2016 show ambassador, Casey-Lee sat with the official party at the grand opening, and presented other competition winners with their ribbons and sashes.

Since then, she has represented the region at a number of events, including a recent etiquette weekend in Dubbo with all of the other 2016 showgirl winners from rural NSW towns.

Casey-Lee will hand over her title to the 2017 showgirl at the Newcastle Regional Show this weekend, which runs from 3 to 5 March at Newcastle Showground.

Autumn is finally here. The weather should cool and gardeners will heave a sigh of relief. We can put down the hoses in favour of a spade and try to repair the ravages of the hot, humid summer. Burnt growth on shrubs and trees can finally be pruned off, allowing new leaves to shoot – fertilise and mulch with sugar cane. Lawns have suffered badly from army grub attack, this year, leaving brown patches – keep applying Seasol to promote root growth and lightly top-dress damaged areas.

Citrus need attention – prune off any growth damaged by leaf miner.

Ground-grown citrus can be fertilised with poultry manure out under the drip line. Water before applying and after. Two weeks later, fertilise with citrus food using the same application rules.

winter arrives. Feed with a slowrelease fertiliser and top-up the pot with peat moss. If you saved a cyclamen corm from last year, it must be re-potted and fed this month.

Fuschias and geraniums can be pruned now, using healthy cuttings to strike new plants. Azaleas and camellias will benefit from a foliant fertiliser, which is available specifically for acid loving plants.

Don’t apply any positive fertiliser such as manures, as these can promote leaf growth instead of flowers. Don’t consider planting out spring bulbs until the weather is more stable in April or May. Don’t forget the trick of putting them in the crisper for a couple of weeks before planting.

Although the main living and bedrooms are on the upper level, there is a DLUG and sleep out/ rumpus downstairs with a 2nd bathroom, this could easily be classed as the 4th bedroom. Being a corner block there is enough room for your caravan or boat to be parked off street, as well as the added benefit of taking advantage of the aspect and added space that this offers.

March 3 – 9

PICK OF THE WEEK Brokeback Mountain Friday, SBS, 8.35pm, M (2005) With a stunning backdrop, a master director in Ang Lee and commanding performances from Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, this controversial cowboy yarn is near flawless. Lee’s classic begins in 1963, when a relationship blooms between a pair of Wyoming cowboys (Ledger and Gyllenhaal). As the summer ends, both men quickly marry, but their time at Brokeback Mountain proves too strong to forget and the pair try to sustain their relationship over the ensuing two decades.

Friday

The Nutty Professor Sunday, 9GO!, 7.40pm, PG (1996) A remake of the 1963 Jerry Lewis comedy classic with Eddie Murphy playing overweight Professor Sherman Klump and his sex-crazed, foul-mouthed alter ego Buddy Love.

Flawless make-up and special effects dominate the show as Murphy works the fat suit with ease, while the transformation into the charming and slim Love is quite amusing. Murphy’s multi-role performance is frequently amazing, demonstrated best in the dinner table sequences where he plays the entire Klump family.

Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius

Sunday, 9GO!, 6pm, G (2001) Not quite up to scratch with the Pixar group’s offerings, nonetheless this is a modest animated fantasy from Nickelodeon, about a super nerdy gradeschooler (voiced by the improbably named Debi Derryberry) capable of stupendous inventions who must travel into deep space to rescue his town’s adult population from aliens. Simple and very silly, this may be purpose-built kids’ fodder, but it still packs enough good-natured fun to draw some appreciation from older, though not necessarily more mature, audiences.

WITH FRANCIS BEVAN

The next 12 months represents the closing of a cycle for Eva, one that started nine years ago. It is a year where she needs to sort a number of things out for herself, both in her work life and personal affairs. It may not be an easy year, for many unexpected problems connected to the past may unexpectedly raise their heads. Music, writing, the arts, nature and her intuition will all bring comfort and pleasure. Travel will also be a great joy.

ARIES MAR 21 - APR 20

CANCER JUN 22 - JUL 22

LIBRA SEP 24 - OCT 23

CAPRICORN DEC 22 - JAN 20

Communication is the name of the game; it will enhance all your relationships. You could have a really enjoyable chat to a friend or you could sit and talk things over with your lover. A trip to the theatre or a riotous night out will be right up your alley.

Venus the planet of love goes retrograde on 5 March, which should put you in the mood to get your finances in order. Apart from mere money, this aspect encourages an examination of what makes you feel worthy. You’ve got a few weeks to get your priorities sorted out.

Venus is retrograde in Aries on 5 March indicating that something concerning relationships must be tackled over the next few weeks.

You and your lover may have some issues which need discussing before you can move forward with plans for the future.

Venus retrograde indicates that younger members of the family may cause some kind of problems and they could turn the home into a temporary battlefield. You may feel that one of your children is being manipulated by an older youngster.

TAURUS APR 21 - MAY 21

LEO JUL 23 – AUG 23

SCORPIO OCT 24 - NOV 22

The Sun in Pisces casts a glow over your artistic potential. Your talents should shine this month, so have some belief in yourself and what you can offer the world at large. Of course, if art and literature leave you cold, you might feel more inclined towards romance.

Your love life is looking up when a charming and flirtatious mood takes hold. You’ll be extremely seductive and win admiration with ease. Whether you’re warming up a new relationship or re-heating an old one, this month’s planetary aspects will help you to get things going in the right direction.

You may have some kind of inspired idea which helps you to find an easy way through an awkward problem. A friend may help out at work or at home and, in addition to this, any help that you give others will be greatly appreciated.

A romantic date will give your heart a lift and singles, a simmering attraction could gather exciting momentum.

Fun places and encounters will keep you smiling; going further afield or catching up with a friend from afar will be stimulating. An exciting personal or professional project will progress well.

GEMINI MAY 22 - JUN 21

VIRGO AUG 24 - SEP 23

SAGITTARIUS NOV 23 - DEC 21

Neptune in Pisces indicates you could meet someone who sets your heart aflutter, as romance seems to be in the air. Travel may be the trigger to meeting someone new or you may stay firmly put, only to find the one you fancy is a fascinating stranger from afar.

This is a wonderful time for putting your ideas across to others.

If you want to speak of how you feel or to make others understand what makes you tick, you will find just the right language. Be easy on yourself, you don't need to store up stressful problems.

You will be able to zip through the chores at home this month and, if you work from home, you will be able to achieve greater success than normal. This is a good time to buy something that uses water for example, a washing machine or dishwasher.

AT

PISCES FEB 20 - MAR 20 You are likely to receive thoughtful gifts which will set the scene for better things to come. Singles, a tantalising attraction could intensify.

Good financial deals will please you and a beautiful new possession will enhance your happiness, but an expensive purchase or undertaking may dent the budget.
