This week...

From the editor What possesses us to hoard items of sentimental value?

It could be creased concert tickets, weathered childhood toys, clothes that no longer fit but one day might…

I know I found all three when I was packing to move house last weekend.

It got me thinking about why we hold onto stuff when, at the end of the day, that’s all it is – stuff. The warm, fuzzy memories often associated with it will always be with us, long after material possessions are gone. Of course, there are some exceptions to this rule; for example, you’d be forgiven for not wanting to part with a gift from a loved one who has passed.

But a Kindergarten Home Reader book? I think not. (Well, it survived the cull this time around, only because it has some very sweet, encouraging notes in it from my mum and dad, which, as a writer, is special to me.)

Moving house is cathartic, if not inconvenient. But, if you’re anything like me, you’ll enjoy a good purge.

If you’re not moving, but would still like to do a spring clean, try the 30-day minimalism challenge. Throw out one item on day 1, two items on day 2, and so on and so forth, until you’ve parted with 30 items on day 30. That’s 465 pieces in total. Be ruthless, and have fun with it. You’ll thank me later.

news Researchers dig for ‘Holy Grail’ of MS The hunt is on for the ‘Holy Grail’ of multiple sclerosis (MS).

Researchers at the Hunter Medical Research Institute and the University of Newcastle are working to decode the genetic signals that blood cells release at different stages of MS disease progression, in which damaged nerve sheaths disrupt impulses between the brain, spinal cord and optic nerves, causing symptoms such as loss of coordination, tremors, fatigue and speech difficulties.

The technical term given to these genetic signals is biomarkers, but researcher Kira Groen likens them to letters.

“They’re like an envelope: a miniature cell that contains a unique message,” she told Newcastle Weekly.

“Basically, they can be described as letters that cells are sending to one another.

“We’re looking at whether they differ between people with MS and people without it, and what their role is.”

Bolstered by a $25,000 incubator grant, the research project has about 10 to 12 people

working together, led by Professor Jeannette Lechner-Scott.

Ms Groen said while this particular MS project was still in the research phase, the team hoped to discover enough new information to progress to clinical trials.

“It depends on whether we can find something to target therapeutically,” she said.

“We still aren’t 100% sure on what the exact cause of MS is, and what factors influence it, be they genetic, environmental.

“There’s also no cure, so the more we can find out, the better.”

Inspiration for the study came from glioblastoma, a form of brain cancer where tiny communication particles, known as extracellular vesicles, have been found to indicate the spread of tumour cells.

Professor Lechner-Scott – a staff specialist at John Hunter Hospital’s neurology department – said it could be the same case with MS, where cells were spreading from one lesion to other areas of the brain.

“A biomarker that shows when the disease is

active and needs adjustment of treatment would be our Holy Grail,” she said.

“In this case, it would require a simple blood test, allowing physicians to take early and appropriate treatment approaches.”

news Full steam ahead for station relaunch The former Newcastle railway station will celebrate its next chapter with a free community party this weekend.

Rebadged as The Station, the historic building underwent a significant makeover, which included a fully restored balcony, overlooking Scott Street; repairing damaged doors and windows; restoring and painting the original metal fretwork; and opening spaces on the ground floor.

Revitalising Newcastle, a state government program, led the restoration works.

Program director Michael Cassel said he was excited about The Station’s future, with non-profit organisation, Renew Newcastle, set to take over the site temporarily.

“It will be the first real reuse of the old station, so we’re quite excited and it all culminates in the party,” Mr Cassel said. “[Renew Newcastle] will have 18 months to test some things and find out what really works there, which will then allow us to look at what works permanently moving forward.

“We see [The Station] as a real jewel in the crown, so we want to make sure that whatever we

put there on an ongoing basis is the right thing.

“It will be a mixture of community and commercial uses – that’s to ensure there is sufficient funding for The Station to be maintained and kept in pristine condition.”

Renew Newcastle wants to focus on four different platforms: hospitality – a café, bar, and eateries; events – rotating weekly, monthly and seasonally; innovation and education – create more educational pathways and employment opportunities within the Newcastle CBD; and the people – a place operating for the people, by the people.

The site’s launch, on Saturday 29 September, aims to deliver a quirky, fantastical and surprising atmosphere in the heart of the city.

Fog machines and festoon lighting will set the mood, while silver service butlers, shoe-shine boys, roaming acrobats, artists, and a fortune teller transport guests to a time of old-world glamour.

Four live acts – the soulful Georgie Jones, globe-trotting Nicky Bomba, Newcastle’s Half Nelson and the multi-genre style of Hot Potato

Band – provide the event’s soundtrack.

A glimpse of the city’s past and peek into the future is also on offer through Newcastle Region Library’s fascinating photo gallery.

The Station’s launch takes place from 5pm to 10pm at the corner of Watt and Scott streets.

news Walking distance too great, cinema pleads with council Birmingham Gardens’ heritage cinema attracts film-lovers from near and far.

But Newcastle councillors have heard how a draft plan to address traffic and pedestrian safety, as well as poor and non-compliant infrastructure, will threaten the Regal Cinema’s future.

Hundreds of supporters gathered at the council chambers last week to hear cinema co-manager, George Merryman, speak about the proposal’s impact.

According to the council, a major factor behind the project was a missing section of a shared pathway between Blue Gum Road and the underpass, beneath Newcastle Inner City Bypass.

It stated a pedestrian and cyclist count, conducted by the council during a weekday afternoon peak-hour period, found a third of

pedestrians were jaywalking at the University Drive/Newcastle Inner City Bypass roundabout, instead of using the tunnel.

The council added it wanted to divert jaywalkers to the existing underpass.

However, Mr Merryman said the proposal, which required the removal of 21 car spaces outside the Regal, would force Newcastle’s last single-screen cinema, on Moore Street, to close.

The Regal, which was earmarked for demolition due to safety concerns in 2007, only to reopen four years ago after a passionate community campaign, could operate for the final time on 23 December.

While the council claimed a survey revealed there was sufficient on-street parking within 400 metres of the cinema, Mr Merryman argued it endangered patrons.

“Many of our patrons are elderly and infirm,” he said at the meeting.

“Those words – elderly and infirm – do not suit proposals that would require them to either cross a dangerous road or walk up to half a kilometre.

“To walk that distance in your 60s, 70s, 80s, or 90s, without protection, without cover, in rain, or worse – the heat of summer – would be inviting disaster.

“The bottom line is the alternative parking plans create, for Regal patrons, the exact safety issue this proposal is meant to solve for cyclists and jaywalking pedestrians.

“The way the proposal works is that it moves people with limited mobility to accommodate cyclists who are highly mobile.”

Mr Merryman said the Regal’s patrons were not anti-cyclist and he understood the council’s fears for

jaywalkers’ safety.

But he believed adequate signage, which directed pedestrians to legal and safe ways to cross the roundabout, would be a practical solution.

Mr Merryman said, if the Regal were to close, the cinema itself wouldn’t go anywhere.

“I take comfort in the fact that the Regal was here long before many of us and it will be here long after,” he said.

“But the closing of the Regal again; that’s not the story we want to tell.”

Councillors were initially expected to vote on the draft plan at Tuesday’s meeting, but it was delayed to a future date.

Staff are investigating various suggestions to minimise the impact on the cinema.

news Council backs residents Cessnock council says it stands by the community on a proposal to open a northern access point to Cessnock Correctional Complex.

The public gallery was packed with people at last Wednesday’s council meeting – many of them residents concerned about Corrective Services NSW’s investigation into a second entry/exit to relieve pressure on residential streets to the south.

One of three options floated by the NSW Department of Justice, as Newcastle Weekly previously reported, runs via residential streets, just 418 metres away from Nulkaba Public School.

Kerlew Street resident Karen Shearer told the magazine she believed using an existing stateowned road, behind the old Allandale hospital, was the only option, as it took gaol traffic away

from the residential area.

Cessnock mayor Bob Pynsent said the council supported its residents.

“The current access route through Lindsay Street and Mavis Street is not suitable,” he said. “[The council] would like to see this route closed and a new route established using the state road network.

“We know residents of Nulkaba are extremely concerned as Kerlew Street has been identified as another viable option. We don’t want to see the access moved from one local road to another.

Ratepayers will again be forced to foot the bill of ongoing road maintenance.

“I have been advocating for our community as a member of the Cessnock Correctional Consultative Committee to secure a solution.”

Bikie gang crackdown

Landmark competition

New laws will make it easier for NSW Police to tackle organised crime during raids on outlaw motorcycle gang clubhouses.

Introduced by the Berejiklian government, the reforms will give police executing a warrant on clubhouses clear powers to: search anyone on site, compel any person to reveal their name and address, and to move people on from the venue.

Parliamentary Secretary for the Hunter, Scot MacDonald, said the changes would help police in the Hunter Region continue to break up outlaw motorcycle gangs.

“Outlaw gangs have no place in our society and we make no apologies for taking this tough stance,” he said.

Newcastle university architecture students have been given the opportunity to design a landmark contemporary arts space.

Researchers and students from the School of Architecture and Built Environment were last week presented with the design brief for the Speers Point Multi Arts Space, an innovative arts pavilion that will provide a flexible platform for cutting-edge multimedia exhibitions, installations, performances and community events.

To be built at Speers Point Park, the arts space will be a visually-striking cultural and community hub.

It is funded by the state government’s Regional Cultural Fund.

The winning design will be announced on Thursday 15 November, while the council will call for construction tenders early next year.

Artist recalls Queen’s historic visit

Val Anderson with her program sketch of Queens Wharf Tower.

Newcastle’s iconic Queens Wharf Tower has met its demise.

But one prominent local artist will never forget its opening.

Amid the excitement of Queen Elizabeth II’s visit to Newcastle in 1988, Val Anderson was asked to promote the new piece of architecture as a tribute to Her Majesty.

Val, now 84, sketched the artwork for the cover of Tourism Newcastle’s program of events to celebrate the tower’s opening.

“They wanted a photo of the tower so we went to Stockton, but there was no way we could’ve taken photos [from there],” she said.

“We jumped on the ferry and, on the way back, one of the attendants was interested in what my husband, Bill, was doing and said, ‘I’ll go and tell the skipper’.

“He stopped the ferry and ran it back and forth three times so we could get the photos.”

Two of Val’s sketches – the one of the tower and another of Newcastle Town Hall – were used as gift wrapping by Newcastle council, while the program sketch also circulated extensively in the local media.

“It was used a lot – as a souvenir, included inside a free Queens Wharf print, then again for the city

centre, and also as wrapping paper,” Val added.

“I think I was approached to do it through [art director] Mark Widdup. I’ve always been fairly prominent, but I think it was done through his gallery and Tourism Newcastle.”

The often-divisive Queens Wharf Tower was dismantled, piece-by-piece, and removed from the harbourfront this month.

Newcastle council stated the tower would have cost ratepayers $1.6 million over the next four years in maintenance.

Lord mayor Nuatali Nelmes said its removal was a “real step forward” for the city’s visitor economy. “[It returns] an uninterrupted view of the cathedral and our beautiful heritage architecture,” she said.

“Starting in October, we expect to welcome more than 10,000 visitors to our city during a record 20-ship cruise season and we can be proud of the view that will greet them as they enter Newcastle harbour.”

Novocastrians will be asked for feedback on a permanent replacement for the tower.

In the meantime, Newcastle council will look to activate the site through synthetic grass, coloured rubber surfaces, raised tree planters, and seating.

news Healthy lunchbox swaps Obesity poses a significant health, social and economic burden across the country.

Parents and carers of school children in the Hunter Region will now have a helping hand in the kitchen to create healthier lunchboxes.

A University of Newcastle research project, SWAP-It, is a parent support program delivered via an app.

Lead researcher, Associate Professor Luke Wolfenden, said the initiative aimed to address the nutritional intake of children to align with dietary guidelines and prevent unhealthy weight gain.

“Good nutrition is one of the most important determinants of children’s health and wellbeing,” he said.

“Within the Hunter New England region, more than 135,000

lunchboxes are packed for primary school-aged children every day.

“These lunchboxes provide the fuel for young, growing minds, containing a third of their daily intake.

“However, packed within these lunchboxes, are more than 270,000 items of junk food, cleverly packaged and presented to children to be consumed each day.”

Professor Wolfenden said junk food contributed to excessive energy intake, unhealthy weight gain, diabetes and other health issues that impacted on a child’s physical and mental health.

The SWAP-It program will be delivered to 150 primary schools across the region, reaching about 75,000 students and 60,000 parents over a three-year period.

It includes nutritional guidelines, weekly support messages, and

resources such as links to lunchbox planners and shopping lists.

“The primary SWAP-It message to parents is to swap in healthy foods and swap out less healthy foods in the lunchbox – every day,” Professor Wolfenden said.

The program was funded through a $500,000 grant from the nib foundation.

Director Michelle McPherson said, with obesity estimated to cost the nation $58 billion per year, and 27% of Australian children classified as either obese or overweight, it was important to improve the food habits of the next generation.

“We believe the SWAP-It program has the potential to do exactly that,” she said.

Lake Macquarie mayor Kay Fraser with Newcastle Cycleways Movement’s Michael Golding.

Fernleigh’s “missing link” It’s NSW Bike Week, and Lake Macquarie council has made a timely proposal to the state government to jointly fund a “missing link” of shared pathway.

Once completed, the 3.5-kilometre Fernleigh Awabakal Shared Pathway, from the end of the iconic Fernleigh Track at Belmont, to Blacksmiths, would create a 27km continuous walking and cycling route, from Murrays Beach in the south to Adamstown in the north.

The $9.64 million project would

start at the end of the existing popular Fernleigh Track, winding along a fully accessible, elevated boardwalk through the Belmont Wetlands, and end at Blacksmiths Beach.

The council also plans to install eight, purposely-commissioned sculptures by Aboriginal artists along the pathway, featuring stories and themes depicting the local Awabakal people and their relationship with the environment.

More than 200,000 people use the Fernleigh Track each year.

news Driving program expands to Upper Hunter region For people like young mum Shantell Martin, the challenge of obtaining a provisional drivers licence can seem insurmountable.

“I had my L plates for many years but my struggle with anxiety prevented me from building my log book hours and sitting the driving test,” she said.

“When my husband was diagnosed with a permanent disability, I realised that I needed help to overcome my fears, so I could get my licence and support my family.”

Thanks to The Salvation Army’s Drive for Life program, Shantell pushed through and became an independent driver once and for all.

Delivered by The Salvation Army’s Oasis Youth Network, Drive for Life provides financially-

marginalised youth with professional driving lessons, driver mentoring, and financial support to cover the cost of driving tests and licence fees.

“Drive for Life gave me the opportunity to form a connection with an amazing driving mentor who gave me the emotional and practical support I needed to get back behind the wheel,” Shantell said.

“I’m proud to say that I now have my P plates and I’m actively looking for work.”

Now, thanks to a generous $100,000 donation from Glencore Coal Assets, more young people like Shantell will benefit from the Drive for Life program.

The funding will facilitate the program’s continuation in

Oasis Hunter representatives Adam Purcell and Jean Rennie, Glencore Coal Assets’ Allyn Hamonet, and Drive for Life graduate Shantell Martin.

Newcastle, as well as an expansion into the Upper Hunter.

There are currently 20 participants progressing through the program, which launched in Newcastle last November.

Oasis Mission and Partnership Manager, Adam Purcell, said the expansion to Singleton would provide young people of the Upper Hunter with an opportunity to

shape their futures.

“Drive for Life equips young people with the skills they need to attain their driver’s licence – a critical step towards employment and independence,” he said.

“This generous funding from Glencore dramatically increases the program’s reach.”

news New playground unveiled The not-for-profit Mission Australia Early Learning Centre at Stockton has opened a new playground, almost nine months after severe storms lashed the coastline.

In January, large surf and big tides washed away more than 15 metres of beach.

The early learning centre, housed in the former Stockton Surf Lifesaving clubhouse, lost part of its outdoor space.

A large section of the yard was deemed unsafe and inaccessible for children.

Newcastle council approved plans in July to move the yard to a new location at the side of the property, and the community generously helped put it into action.

Williams, said the centre was grateful for the community’s “significant contributions” to restoring the outdoor play area.

“Thanks to their generosity, the children who attend the centre will have access to a fun and educational natural environment that will contribute to their sense of wellbeing, wonder, and belonging,” he said.

“It’s been so wonderful that the community has rallied behind us to help rebuild our outdoor space for local children to enjoy. We are absolutely thrilled.”

news Program’s vital support for parents Every parent wants to give their child the best start in life.

While having a new baby and parenting young children can be a joy, it’s also challenging.

Loneliness, exhaustion, depression, anxiety, or restarting a family after fleeing domestic violence – some parents struggle just to get through the day.

For Valentine’s Kellie Jeffery, a volunteer parental support program has been a “godsend”.

The mother-of-three and her husband, Tom, decided they needed help a couple of months after their twins were born.

The pair turned to a non-profit organisation called Home-Start.

“All of my family live in Tamworth; most of Tom’s live here [in the Hunter], but they all have kids and families themselves,” Kellie said.

“Having three very small children, and never having twins before, it was a whole new world for us.”

The Home-Start Volunteer Home Visiting Program recruits, trains and supports volunteers, who embark on weekly visits to help

20

families with children under the age of five.

The volunteers aim to provide friendship and practical support to parents feeling burdened by their new role.

Kellie was matched with one of Home-Start’s trained volunteers, Anita Ibbotson.

She said the program had made a remarkable difference.

“Taking three kids to the doctors or for vaccinations is impossible for one person, so having that extra set of hands was just an absolute godsend for us,” Kellie said.

“When I was trying to feed twins, run a house and cook dinner, Anita would come over and help out with dinner or entertain the kids for a while so I could run around and do a thousand things around the house.

“Anita is our angel; she’s gone above and beyond.”

Home-Start receives no government funding for its volunteer program, instead relying on donations, fundraisers and grants.

A trivia night will take place at Adamstown Bowling Club from 6.30pm on Saturday 27

Tickets cost $15, with all proceeds going towards the program.

Local businesses have already donated numerous prizes, which will be raffled and auctioned on the night.

Some prizes include tickets to Human Nature, accommodation, artworks, a harbour cruise, fashion items, movie passes, a Jets jersey, and beauty products.

Bike park kicks up a gear Awaba Mountain Bike Park will hit new heights as a $450,000 revamp looks set to spin it into one of the best in the country.

The funds, secured by the Hunter Mountain Bike Association (HMBA), are expected to provide new trails, signage and car park improvements.

Lake Macquarie mayor Kay Fraser believed it had the potential to be a “significant tourist drawcard” for the city.

“What the Hunter Mountain Bike Association is doing to upgrade the world-class network of trails at Awaba is very exciting,” she said.

“The expansion of the network will benefit local riders and visitors alike, while promoting healthy, active lifestyles.

“I’m also very pleased to see that the proposal includes plans to provide more adaptive trails for riders with a disability.”

Cr Fraser met with HMBA representatives and Lake Macquarie MP Greg Piper at the bike park on Monday.

Apart from the Awaba facility, another 10 projects in the area also received financial support as part of a $3.5 million haul under the state government’s Stronger Country Communities Fund.

More than $600,000 will go towards a new children’s playground and improvements to Bernie Goodwin Memorial Park at Morisset, while $620,000 is set to extend the Morisset Peninsula cycleway at Brightwaters.

Walters Park, the home of Lake Macquarie Rugby Club in Speers Point, will pick up $231,000 for field lighting; Lake Macquarie council will receive more than $680,000 to build better shade structures, seating and barbecue areas at local swimming

centres; and $219,133 will provide new roofing at the Hunter Life Education Centre in Edgeworth.

Other projects include $200,000 for new and upgraded trails at the Lake Mac Outdoor Recreation Centre; $140,312 to install ceiling insulation at Morisset PCYC; $72,765 for a three-bay storage building at Awaba Oval; $116,500 to improve facilities at Wangi Wangi Library; and $136,400 for a Charlestown

CREATE public art project.

Mr Piper said it was great news for Lake Macquarie communities.

“I’m really happy that we’ve been able to get so many of these projects funded,” he said.

“I am particularly pleased that we’ve received funds to extend the cycleway at Brightwaters, and the money for Awaba Mountain Bike Park will make it one of the best in the country.”

Summer is coming, and this means that so are the parasites!

With summer just over a month away, it’s now time for pet owners to brace for pests, parasites and all things that bite.

“Snake bites are a big concern during the warmer months,” said RSPCA Hunter Senior Vet Dr Tonya Stokes. Snakes are more active during this time as they look for food and mates.

“Snakes are more aggressive and have more toxic venom at the beginning of summer,” warned Dr Stokes.

To help prevent snake bites, always keep your animals on leads during walks, especially in bushland areas near water. At home, keep lawn and grass height low and clean up any rubbish piles where snakes might hide.

If you think your pet has been bitten, keep them calm and quiet, and get them to a veterinarian immediately. Pets left untreated have a much lower chance of survival.

Ticks can also pack a deadly punch. To help prevent bites, make sure flea and tick treatments are up to date. It’s also a good idea to check your animal’s coat at least once a day for ticks.

“Ticks use native animals as a host,” said Dr Stokes, “So you might have ticks about if you have possums or blue tongues or possums living nearby.”

Signs of tick paralysis include weakness in the back legs, change in voice or coughing. “Tick paralysis progresses fast and animals can die within hours. It’s extremely important to get your animal to a veterinarian as quickly as possible,” said Dr Stokes.

sport Marathon squad’s tough desert test Newcastle’s Rachael Howard was first across the finish line as the 2018 Indigenous Marathon Project (IMP) squad completed its toughest challenge yet.

The team of 12 took on a 30-kilometre desert run through Alice Springs at the weekend.

In an emotional ceremony that followed, 11 learned their hard work over the past six months had booked them a spot in the New York City (NYC) Marathon in November.

Howard, who ran most of the way with Charlie Maher, the first Indigenous Australian to complete the NYC Marathon back in 2010, said she enjoyed the experience.

“It was tough, but I loved it, and running with Charlie was really special,” she said.

Howard was also presented with the Nadine Hunt Leadership Award in recognition of her own strong leadership skills.

The IMP uses the marathon as a vehicle to promote active and healthy lifestyles to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, while also celebrating Indigenous resilience and achievement.

It is an initiative of the Indigenous Marathon Foundation – a health promotion charity.

The foundation’s director, former world champion marathon runner Rob de Castella, said he was incredibly proud of this year’s IMP squad.

“Finding the strength to run 30 kilometres is a testament to their purpose and drive to achieve,” he said.

“They started at 5.20am and, once the sun came up, it warmed up a bit and a few of them were struggling, but they all kept pushing through.

“This run has been so special for them – to run on country in the heart of Australia, to spend time by themselves, and reflect on their purpose.”

Ace deal for local tennis association Six-time grand slam winner and recent US Open champion, Dylan Alcott, was a special guest in Newcastle last week for the announcement of a four-year, $50,000 sponsorship deal.

The Newcastle and District Tennis Association will use the funds to upgrade its facilities, as well as the potential development of new courts. “[This] will add enormous value to our regional centre and be of benefit to our broader tennis community,” president Ellen Gordon said.

The sponsorship was secured through ANZ.

Book offers taste of Hunter wine history A new book that documents the Hunter’s rich winemaking history has launched in Newcastle.

Hunter Wine: A History is the result of a four-year research project led by the University of Newcastle’s renowned sociologist, Professor John Germov, and Australia’s leading wine historian, Dr Julie McIntyre.

Tracing six generations of wine producers, from when the first vines were planted in 1828 to the changing tastes and rising interest in wine of the 1980s, the book uncovers new truths about the Hunter’s wine community and its connection to the

global economy.

It highlights the colonial and global influences of the region’s early years and reveals how Hunter Valley producers changed Australian drinking culture by creating a taste for their wines and spurred touristic traditions of visiting the region.

“In the 1850s there was barely a market for the small quantities of wine produced in the Hunter Valley, but Hunter wine became very popular in the heady era of Australian prosperity from the 1880s to World War I,” Professor Germov said.

“Then, due to war and the

Renowned sociologist Professor John Germov and Australia’s leading wine historian, Dr Julie McIntyre.

[Great] Depression, drinking fell out of favour until the mid-1960s when producers like Lindeman’s, Drayton’s and the McGuigan family encouraged a new drinking culture of ‘introduction wines’ – products that are easy-drinking and affordable.

“In the 1980s, tastes changed again, with rising interest in more refined wine styles from single grape varieties like Chardonnay, Semillon and Shiraz.

“Hunter Valley stalwarts,

including Tyrrell’s, McWilliam’s Mount Pleasant and Brokenwood, were at the forefront of developing these styles for a new generation of drinkers.”

The book launch took place at Newcastle Museum at the weekend alongside an exhibition from the Vines, Wines and Identity project, which was jointly funded by the Australian Research Council Linkage Project scheme, the Hunter Valley Wine & Tourism Association, and the museum.

Long weekend comedic catharsis Newcastle’s grassroots Not Just for Laughs comedy festival has set an ambitious goal to introduce you to your next favourite comedian.

Bound for The Station – formerly Newcastle railway station – on the Labour Day long weekend (Sunday 30 September and Monday 1 October), the festival features a full-day program to reflect its strong, local focus on comedy in all forms, including stand-up, improv, sketch and podcasting.

Local comic Liam Callen will be back for more after headlining last year’s inaugural festival with his highly experimental improv show, Hell Gig Simulator.

It was an elaborate production involving several stand-ups, audience plants, costume changes, sound cues, and detailed character performances.

Callen is back in 2018, only this time, he plans to make things a lot easier on himself.

Armed with words and a microphone, the selfproclaimed ‘professional stand-up dandy’ will be performing his first solo comedy hour, which is all about embracing failure.

Fail Better parodies the informative and inspiring TED talks that have been watched by

more than a billion people online.

Callen says the show is about the little things that connect us all.

“Failure is a great unifier, more so than success,” he says.

“Few people have reached the top of Mount Everest, but most have burnt the roof of their mouth eating soup.”

In a new addition to the line-up, Brisbane comedian MJ Wong is set to bring his debut solo show – MJ Wong: In the Wong Family – to Newcastle, after a sell-out run at Bris Funny Fest 2018.

MJ claims he was born into the w(r)ong family, then he fell in love and got married to the w(r)ong woman. Will he ever belong; will two w(r)ongs make a right?

A dysfunctional family, a failed marriage: a happy family life has always managed to elude MJ. How do you “grow up” without “grown-ups” to aspire to? How do you find your feet when your world gets turned upside down? How do you save on tomatoes at the supermarket?

MJ explores these questions with his unique blend of “smart and dumb” jokes in an often

When pesky aphids attack, as they have this rosebud, use a bee-friendly pyrethrum spray.

Spring has… sprung? Cool weather clings on So far, spring hasn’t sprung!

The rain has been great, but the cooler weather is controlling the new spring growth.

In a few days’ time we’ll be doing October garden chores.

Roses have been looking great, apart from the aphids attacking the new growth and deterring bud swell.

covered in hundreds of aphids – out came the pyrethrum spray (bee-friendly), but after the rain, I’ll be checking again and might have to resort to a stronger contact spray, which I’ll use late in the day after the bees have gone to bed.

Remember, once the humidity returns, coastal roses will be prone to fungal disease.

I advise regularly spraying with a fungicide, but more importantly, fertilising each month to keep them healthy.

Sudden Impact is ideal, but also try sulphate of potash, one month, and apply dolomite after heavy rain. Don’t overlook a good dose of blood and bone.

Azaleas and spring flowers will last a little longer until the heat sets in.

Once pansies fi nish blooming, fertilise with cow manure and replant with petunias a week later.

Prune and feed wisteria and jasmine once they fi nish flowering, as these spring-flowering climbers are quite rampant and require regular pruning to control their vigorous growth.

Gardenias can begin to show signs of stress as they produce their fragrant blooms, which can be partly attributed to a lack of water, lack of iron, or merely the

IN THE GARDEN JUDY SHARPE

effort needed to produce flowers.

It is important to fertilise gardenias with cow manure, whilst those being grown in containers need an application of a slow-release product and peat moss to cover the root’s surface.

If yellow leaves persist, water chelated iron over the roots surface late in the day.

Lawns are a problem this year; a lack of rain, the cold weather – it has all added up to weeding, fertilising and lightly topdressing, but do spray for weeds before fertilising.

Houseplants can be re-potted now, if necessary. Clean dust off hard-leaved plants, freshen up the soil and begin applying a liquid fertiliser each fortnight.

When bulbs have fi nished flowering, they should be allowed to die off. This process is essential for protein storage for next season’s bulbs.

Prune tropical shrubs such as hibiscus and Asian Bell trees at the end of October.

Hibiscus need iron, so cow manure is the perfect fertiliser.

If grown in pots, use a slowrelease product.

When daisies and lavender fi nish flowering, give them a light prune, but never cut back to hardwood.

PICK OF THE WEEK Harry Brown

Back To The Future

Harry Brown

Friday, SBS, 8.30pm, MA15+ (2009) Screen legend Michael Caine (left) returns to Get Carter territory in this brutal, uncompromising revenge thriller that showcases the veteran actor’s darker side.

Caine, as the titular pensioner, ekes out a quiet, uneventful life with just his wife and old friend Leonard (David Bradley) to pass the days. But dual tragedies soon shatter Harry’s world and, dismayed at the efforts of the police, Harry decides to mete out his own brand of retribution.

Friday

The Notebook

Back To The Future

Saturday, NBN, 7pm, PG (1985) Michael J. Fox’s (left) first outing as time-travelling, guitar-strummin’ teenager Marty McFly is great fun. Sent from the year 1985 to 1955 in a souped-up car invented by crazy scientist Doc Brown (the inimitable Christopher Lloyd), Marty embarks on a heartpounding mission against the clock to unite his parents (Crispin Glover and Lea Thompson) and make sure of his own future existence. Robert Zemeckis’ seminal gem is superb entertainment.

Sunday, WIN, 8.30pm, PG (2004) The fate of two young adults falling in love in North Carolina in 1940 is writ large in this adaptation of Nicholas Sparks’ best-seller (directed

MARKET DATES IN OCTOBER ON THE NORTH COAST ANIMAL SOAP Ph. 0407 230 854 or visit us at www.guardiananimalsoap.com.au Guardian Animal Soap is a very special soap because it not only deep cleanses your pet, it also makes them feel and smell good.

It is a natural wash and conditioner all in one.

Our soap is specially formulated by combining a selection of pure essential oils and carrier oils with the bulk of the oils being carrier oils While the essential oils chosen are to keep parasites at bay such as grass mites, fleas, ticks, lice and also aid in the relief of skin allergies and help with the healing and soothing process.

They are also anti-fungal and anti-bacterial,

keeping in mind that some animals have very sensitive skins, we have made one soap for all.

To keep the soap natural and chemically free, the soap is hand made and naturally dried which enables us to not use any hardeners or add any preservatives.

Guardian Animal Soap aids in the relief of dry, itchy and flaky skin for horses and dogs.

Guardian Animal Soap is pH balanced and rinses with extraordinary ease. With regular use, this soap promotes cleaner, healthier skin while leaving your dog's coat soft and shiny.

ARIES: 21 MAR – 20 APR

CANCER: 22 JUNE – 22 JULY

LIBRA: 24 SEPT – 23 OCT

CAPRICORN: 22 DEC – 20 JAN

Your emotions will seem to take on a life of their own making you moodier than usual and you could find yourself involved in a family argument. It’s obvious that the significant other in your life deserves respect and affection and that’s just what you’re now prepared to give.

You will be taking many short distance trips; if you haven’t got the hang of how your public transport works or learned to drive this is the ideal time to do so. This will also be a time of romance so take time out with your lover.

There is some evidence that you will find yourself involved in a secret kind of relationship. This doesn’t have to be a love triangle but it could be something much odder, such as keeping in touch with a ‘black sheep’ relative the rest of the family ignores.

You could go back into training or just study for fun and the subjects you choose will be philosophical or mind-broadening rather than purely practical. Being more accepting, openminded and forward-thinking gives you a better chance to embrace that special person when they cross your path.

TAURUS: 21 APR – 21 MAY

LEO: 23 JULY – 23 AUG

SCORPIO: 24 OCT – 22 NOV

AQUARIUS: 21 JAN – 19 FEB

Don’t take things at face value; whilst the outlook may be optimistic there are hidden pitfalls so tread warily and keep out of matters that don’t concern you. You’ll enjoy a more youthful attitude toward life, possibly joining in sporting activities and youthful pastimes such as skating or dancing.

Jupiter in Scorpio puts you in a vibrant social mood. There will be a couple of lucky breaks that help you to sort out a number of sticky family or relationship issues. This would be a good time to buy a property, especially if it has a garden.

The Sun in Libra from the 24th suggests you will tire easily or become a little jumpier than usual.

So make certain to rest up, because let’s face it, you tend to go to extremes, mainly due to the fact that you think you are superhuman.

You will have to find the middle ground at some point where relationships are concerned. Be careful of being your own worst enemy at the moment and above all else, you must hang on to your wonderful sense of humour. Be especially patient when driving.

GEMINI: 22 MAY – 21 JUNE

VIRGO: 24 AUG – 23 SEPT

You and your partner will share a milestone decision. Young people will bring you a great deal of joy either because they make some kind of achievement or you simply enjoy doing things together. At work, you’ll need all your communication skills to resolve certain issues.

An artistic mood will take hold and this will be nourished and nurtured by getting out into the open to check out your environment with new eyes. You will reach out and make changes which will set the pattern of your life for many years to come.

You can’t put off dealing with your family any longer – it’s time to bring them back under control. That takes time, but you can do it. Mercury and Jupiter are in a favourable aspect which indicates you have the diplomacy and strategy to create a win-win situation for all concerned.

Brie’s home and family circumstances, which could include a move of home, building work, redecorating or buying new furniture and fittings, are going to become of greater interest. The definite domestic slant will temporarily anchor her closer to home and family. There are likely to be births amongst family and friends and the family circle will be expanding. There will be more dealings with her mother and other female friends and relatives, especially those who are older.

Feelings of family loyalty will strengthen.

TRAVEL My husband and I enjoy cruising; to see the world, different cultures and relax in comfort – it’s the ultimate holiday for us.

My favourite things

COFFEE My favourite meeting, social event, or just time alone is a chance to have a coffee. My pick is a soy cappuccino.

PILATES I go to the Pilates Space, on Hunter Street, three times a week; I am a strong believer in the “use it or lose it” mantra. It is a full body workout in 50 minutes that feels like 10 minutes.

SURF LIFESAVING It is my hobby, my work, and my passion. Working in an organisation that is 100 years old, an iconic organisation, and with volunteers that share the same passion as myself for the Hunter Region is terrific.

Rhonda Scruton

HUNTER SURF LIFESAVING CHIEF EXECUTIVE

Rhonda has been the chief executive of Hunter Surf Lifesaving for 21 years this October and she is privileged to work with more than 7,000 volunteers. Born in Newcastle and a former student at Newcastle Girls High School, Rhonda’s love of the city and its people is very special. Her goal – to have modern surf clubs throughout the Hunter Region – is coming to fruition. Rhonda aims to not only provide the safest and most beautiful beaches in Australia, but also offer excellent clubs from which to work, educate and patrol. Hunter Surf Lifesaving, which unites 13 clubs, will celebrate its centenary with a flag-raising ceremony at Nobbys Beach this Saturday 29 September from 9am.

EDUCATION I really enjoy learning about the history of Australia and, of course, surf lifesaving.

The surf movement really grew after WWI when soldiers came home after the war and banded together to continue protecting Australians. Mateship, integrity and discipline are very strong traits of lifesavers.

Life is meant to be lived.
