This week...

From the editor I like to notice people's expressions during life's big moments, usually when they're focused on something else: a groom's grin from ear to ear when heads are turned toward the bride, or tears of joy at a mother's first embrace.

As a highly observant empath, watching events move people, moves me.

Of course, not all life events are joyous; on Monday I attended my cousins' dad's funeral. But among the sea of glassy eyes, there were moments of love and joy – you just had to know how to spot them. A cheeky smile through the pew from one of five grandchildren, tiny three-year-old feet standing on tip-toes to place a bible on the coffin, and the soft squeezes, forehead kisses and warm embraces among family and friends, not to mention cathartic laughs during the eulogy (beautifully spoken by my mum).

While perhaps not filled with as much elation as birth or marriage, a funeral is still a celebration of a life and of life itself. And let's not forget to celebrate life while we're still living it.

Let this serve as a reminder to tell those you love how you feel, to take every opportunity that comes your way and live out your heart's desires.

In loving memory of Paul John Masters.

news Restrictions loom; busload to visit rural towns Level one restrictions are tipped to be introduced in mid-September if the region’s dam levels drop further and water usage remains high.

According to Hunter Water, its total storage sits at 65% capacity as of this week – the lowest since 1998.

Chichester Dam, located at the top of the Williams River catchment, is 66.9% full; Grahamstown Dam, near Raymond Terrace, reads 64.1%; Tomago shows 71.5%; and Anna Bay has hit 51.2%.

Hunter Water chief investment officer, Darren Cleary, believes it’s important to preserve supplies ahead of the summer season.

In June, the Hunter region used 4.174 million litres of water and, in July, that figure rose to 4.653 million litres.

“On average we use around 190 to 200 litres of water per person each day in the Hunter,” he says.

“When compared to other areas, like Melbourne for example, where customers use approximately 160 litres a day, there’s more we can be doing to drive usage down.

“If the dams continue to fall and usage remains high, we could reach 60% storage in mid-September, which is the trigger for level one water restrictions.

“By making small, simple changes at home, we all could be using about four buckets of water less

per day.

“Things like reducing our showers to four minutes and ensuring our rainwater tanks are working properly can make a big difference in how much water we use.”

Despite looming restrictions in pockets of the Hunter, many of the state’s rural towns have been struggling with desperately low water supplies.

news All eyes on Georgia Words are a strength, not a limitation for Georgia Rawlins.

Through the use of innovative technology, the Pelican Flat Public School kindergarten student, who has cerebral palsy and is non-verbal, was able to participate in the school’s public speaking competition.

Using an eye-gaze device, which tracks her eye movements towards icons on a screen, allowing her to choose what she would like to say or do, Georgia delivered a touching speech about friends and what they meant to her.

“Friends are the people who play with you and make your day fun,” Georgia said.

“They even listen to me when I can’t get my words out and love me for who I am.”

In the speech, assisted by her learning support officer, Tamara, Georgia mentioned her BFF (best friend forever) – a special person who does anything to make her happy and cheer her up when she’s sad.

She then closed her speech with a message to her fellow classmates who might be looking for their own BFF.

“Come and see me at lunch and I will listen to your stories and be your friend,” she said.

Georgia’s teachers were so impressed with her speech that she was chosen to take part in the Galgabba Community of Schools’ public speaking competition at Caves Beach Public School.

The community is a network of seven schools

in the Lake Macquarie area: Pelican Flat, Blacksmiths Public, Caves Beach Public, Marks Point Public, Nords Wharf Public, Swansea Public and Swansea High.

The schools work together on projects throughout the year and support students to make connections with others.

Suffering with Eczema?

From page 4 One group has already done its bit to support these droughtaffected areas.

The third We Care Road Trip, led by organiser Anne-Marie Best, will send a busload of shoppers to five towns across the weekend of Saturday 14 and Sunday 15 September.

Gosford-based It’s Easy Tours has provided a 54-seat luxury super coach, plus fuel and a driver, for the group, which will visit Merriwa, Dunedoo and Gilgandra before staying overnight in Coonabarabran for a meet-andgreet with farmers.

“Coonabarabran’s water supply is still desperately low, and they are currently on level four water restrictions,” Ms Best says.

“So, to really show our support and help them, I ask [the busload] to refrain from showering for just this one night.

“But, if you really need to

After Coonabarabran, the road trip is then due to stop at Coolah on the way back to McDonald Jones Stadium in Newcastle.

Ms Best says the initiative aims to raise awareness and money for drought-stricken farmers; encourages people to spend up big in the towns to bolster their struggling economies; and spreads love and support.

Alternative plans for a prime waterfront parcel at Toronto have been floated by independent Lake Macquarie MP Greg Piper.

Landscaped gardens and playgrounds, barbecue areas, seating and space for festivals, pop-up markets and cafés are prominent features of the concept illustrations, which Mr Piper commissioned to show Lake Macquarie council what could become of the site.

Currently under the council’s consideration is a plan for a sixstorey mixed-use development at the Bath Street site, next to the Royal Motor Yacht Club.

The plan has been met with significant community opposition since it was unveiled last year.

“I do not support the council’s plans either,” Mr Piper said.

“I don’t believe the councillors have properly considered other options for Bath Street and I’ve become increasingly concerned that they’re not listening to the local residents. “[The concept illustrations are] more in step with what the community wants and needs. If a six-storey development is built on this site, the land is lost to the community forever.”

Former Minister for Defence Industry, Christopher Pyne, will be the keynote speaker at the Hunter Defence Conference’s 10th anniversary celebrations.

The milestone event, which takes place at Crowne Plaza Hunter Valley from 22 to 23 August, is set to include government and industry leaders, as well as senior capability development

staff from the army, navy and air force headquarters. Hunter Defence chair Tim Owen said the conference would focus on national support for regional small-andmedium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

It will incorporate an industry showcase on Thursday 22 August, at which leaders will speak directly with SMEs that are successfully established as contractors or looking to work in the Defence industry.

Mr Pyne (pictured) is guest speaker at the gala dinner the same evening.

“The speakers will provide an overarching view of where government policy is heading over the coming decade and what global supply chain opportunities that will present for SMEs and contractors in the region,” Mr Owen said.

“The leaders endured blustery conditions that added to the excitement, but all completed the activity safely and many overcame their fear of heights.

“The service is extremely thankful to each of the leaders for raising greatly-needed funds, which will ensure that the Westpac rescue helicopter can continue to be here for our community 24/7.”

Ain’t no party like a tea party It’s a party that challenges contestants to embrace their crazy and quirky side.

The Hunter Valley town of Dungog will be the new home of the former Morpeth tea cosy challenge.

The event, which launches this Tuesday 20 August and wraps up on Sunday 25 August, has been rebadged as the Dungog Tea Party.

It will include input from local businesses and schools, as well as the Dungog Men’s Shed, Country Women’s Association and Dungog District Chamber of Commerce.

Dungog Tea Party secretary Erika Seck said the event aimed to promote the town to a wider audience.

“A lot of the businesses here are struggling so, to do an event like this and run it for six days, we’re hoping that people will come and, you never know, they might stay for the weekend,” she said.

“I have already got busloads coming from a number of different areas like Port Macquarie and Toukley.

“We’ve got so many events on and are a very

cover story

cultural sort of town, so hopefully people will go to the cafés, the art shops, and the museum as well – they’re all going to be open.”

Morpeth businessman Trevor Richards and his wife Shirley first started the novelty tea pot and tea cosy exhibition in 1987 after purchasing and renovating Campbell’s Store.

It went on to attract widespread interest for three decades before finally winding down in 2017.

“I had been to Morpeth and seen it, so we contacted them, and they really embraced it,” Ms Seck added.

“We had a year off in between; it has taken us that long to get it organised and I’m sure we will learn from this year, but the response has been overwhelming.

“The town has really supported it – we’re doing it as a non-profit organisation, whereas [Morpeth] ran it as a business.”

The tea cosy challenge will take place at the historic James Theatre – the oldest purpose-built cinema still operating in Australia.

Tea cosies must be made by the contestant

using any material. The main prize is $500, with categories including country capers, rivers to the sea, spring into spring, superheroes, Australiana, paddock to plate, and treasured memories.

Apart from the tea cosy challenge, there will be several other events and activities, including a trivet competition and tea tastings.

The Dungog Tea Party will go from 11am to 4pm on Tuesday, and 10am to 4pm for the remaining five days.

Champion long-distance runner Steve Moneghetti and speedster Vlad Shatrov are among the long list of competitors to race at one of the region’s most iconic courses.

The Lake Macquarie Running Festival, which winds around the shores of Warners Bay, will celebrate its 35th anniversary next weekend.

Event organiser Chad Griffith said the occasion would be marked by recognising some of the runners who had taken part in the past.

NOW SELLING STAGE 2

“This year we are acknowledging our Lake Mac Legends, who are runners that have completed the course 10 or more times over the years,” he said.

“We have runners like John McCain who have been with us from the very beginning and, at 79 years old, John is still running – it’s awesome.

“We’ve been a part of people’s running calendar since 1983 in Lake Macquarie, and we’ve seen other events come and go, but the Lake Mac run has stood the test of time.

“People love running along the beautiful shores of the lake and we’ve got one of the fastest courses going around, so the times are always quick.”

Luke Simpson, right, celebrates his goal with Jayden Ryan at the weekend.

Northstars book finals ticket Newcastle punched its ticket to the 2019 AIHL Finals after a tense 5-4 shootout win over the Sydney Ice Dogs on Sunday.

Northstars captain Bert Malloy’s successful shootout goal saw the

visitors become the second team to clinch a finals spot behind runaway leaders Canberra Brave.

The Ice Dogs, playing in front of their home crowd at Macquarie Ice Rink, opened the scoring and,

despite a Richie Tesarik goal, took a 2-1 lead at the end of period one.

Newcastle started the second stanza strongly and hit the front through goals to Luke Simpson and Sammy Banga.

However, two more goals from Sydney, courtesy of Dylan Quaile and Grant Toulmin, put the Ice Dogs ahead 4-3.

Malloy managed to draw the Northstars level in the final period and both teams could not find a winner, sending the match into five minutes of extra time.

Newcastle goaltender Charlie Smart kept his side in the contest with some big saves to push it to a shootout.

The Ice Dogs four attempts to find the back of the net were not successful and the Northstars failed on their three efforts, leaving Malloy to finally seal the win.

Newcastle head coach John Kennedy Jr praised the squad’s

Cracked wall?

resilience but added there was plenty of room for improvement as the finals approached.

“The boys never gave up and were able to find a way to win,” he said.

“These last final games, it’s already playoff hockey.

“Even though we’re in second place, there has always been a question of whether you will make it, with all these other teams nipping at your heels.

“Now that that’s out of the way, it’s refocusing on habits.

“I think we could have come out a lot better in the first period.

“As soon as we get that sense of urgency and realising the way we need to play all three periods, that’s going to be the key thing for us over the next few weeks.”

Newcastle will face the Brave in Canberra on Saturday 17 August.

The finals are set to take place at Hunter Ice Skating Stadium from 31 August to 1 September.

An act of inspiration A spritely group of seniors from Caves Beach Gym has shown age is no barrier during an inspirational performance on season nine of Australia’s Got Talent.

The 30 gym enthusiasts went before a judging panel that includes Grammy-nominated singer and TV personality Nicole Scherzinger, celebrity chef Manu Feildel, actress Lucy Durack, and entertainer Shane Jacobson.

Caves Beach Gym manager Jenny Walker said the seniors, who range in age from 50 to 88, wanted to send an inspirational message.

“Age is no barrier – that’s one of the things that kept coming up,” she said.

“A lot of these people are well into their 70s and 80s, so they wanted to show that illness and that sort of stuff is no barrier to stop them from doing what they

want to do, particularly in terms of exercise and feeling better.

“One of the ladies said to me: ‘This is the year for doing things that I’d never do’, and going on a reality television show was certainly one of them.”

The Active Over 50s team initially entered the 2019 series as a joke but, following auditions in Newcastle’s town hall, eventually gained selection.

Members then trained three times a week for almost a month, on top of regular workouts, to prepare for the two-and-a-halfminute act.

The colourful performance included a gym circuit on stage using the likes of kettlebells, aerobic step benches and weight plates, while some participants were also interviewed about their reasons for going on the show.

Walker said she was proud of the group’s efforts.

Caves Beach Gym, which helped to train them, is owned by Swansea District Baptist Church. It operates as a not-for-profit.

“We’re only a little local gym but we have got great clients,” Walker said.

“For some of them, it’s their

only outing of the week and, as we get older, it’s more important to get moving.”

Australia’s Got Talent displays a wide range of mind-blowing acts every Sunday and Monday night from 7pm and 7.30pm respectively.

The winner is set to pocket $100,000 in prize money.

THIS WEEK • While it is still cold and time is being spent indoors, use white oil to dust off hard-leaved houseplants such as Ficus lyrata, umbrellas, Madonna Lilies and strelitzias.

• Don’t prune wisteria now – wait until flowering has finished in spring.

• Dig in cow manure and blood and bone to prepare for planting spring/ summer vegetables, such as tomatoes and cucumbers, but wait one week before planting.

Stop work and start your sea change The sea change lifestyle is hitting an all-time high with downsizers moving to popular coastal regions and, from all reports, now’s the time to jump on this ‘mega-trend’ while conditions are perfect.

Social analyst, Mark McCrindle says Australia’s suburbs are undergoing significant transformation with people moving across more communities than ever before, including downsizers seeking a sea change.

And the advice is to consider making the lifestyle change sooner rather than leaving the move too late.

Downsizers residing in capital cities in large family homes are cashing in on high real estate sales with a solid wave of first and second home buyers snapping up their empty nests, but these perfect conditions are not expected to last forever.

ABS census data supports the sea and tree change ‘mega-trend’ reporting an increase in people settling outside capital cities, with the highest rates of internal migration in coastal and regional towns across Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria.

And as downsizers go in search of a better lifestyle for

their golden years, it’s important they find an affordable and sustainable housing solution.

The fastest form of affordable housing currently being built in Australia is over 55s lifestyle communities developed under the land lease ownership model. One such operator leading the industry is Ingenia Lifestyle who are experiencing record levels of downsizers seeking a new lifestyle change.

Ingenia Chief Operating Officer, Nikki Fisher, said 70,000 Australians live in land lease communities, providing an attractive offering for downsizers to live a leisurely lifestyle along

with an improvement in finances and a decrease in stress levels.

“Land lease living is an increasingly popular option for the independent and active over 55s as it protects our resident’s financial security and independence and is a simple and transparent model to understand.

“Ingenia’s innovative land lease ownership model allows a downsizer to purchase a new home, lease the land and gain from the financial and lifestyle benefits that come with community living.

“With a growing demand for our lifestyle communities in coastal locations, we encourage

downsizers to start looking at their options today and fasttrack their downsizing plans while the market conditions are favourable,” Nikki said.

Latitude One by Ingenia Lifestyle has been recording high levels of sales from local Port Stephens and Newcastle downsizers attracted to the benefits of the land lease model. The popularity has now seen the team almost sold out of homes in the first six stage releases, with release 7 launching on 24th August.

To find out more please contact Sheree Richardson on 0408 295 737 or visit www.liveinportstephens.com.au

Welcome to gold class living Live, laugh and relax at Latitude One, a magnificent resort-style over 55s community in Port Stephens where variety is the spice of life and each day brings new delights to enjoy.

Imagine a lifestyle where your time is your own, unhampered by a list of maintenance chores, where you’re free to travel, to have fun, to fulfil dreams.

Many have already discovered the Ingenia difference, so much so that homes in the first six stages have almost sold out.

Release 7 will be on sale from 24th August, so register your interest today as this new window of opportunity is not going to last!

The Hateful Eight

Saturday, SBS, 8.30pm, MA15+ (2015)

Tarantino’s eighth film is a cosy affair, despite its three-hour runtime.

Set in the depths of a Wyoming winter, bounty hunter Marquis (Samuel L. Jackson) is caught in a storm and snags a ride with fellow bounty hunter John (Kurt Russell), who is carrying fugitive Daisy (Jennifer Jason Leigh, above). On the way they pick up Chris (Walton Goggins), but are soon forced to take shelter in a shop.

Friday

pick of the week Cinderella Saturday, PRIME7, 7pm, G (2015)

The Sweetest Thing Saturday, 9GO!, 9pm, MA15+ (2002)

Lily James (right) plays the eponymous lead character who is tormented by her wicked stepmother (Cate Blanchett) and her nasty stepsisters. Anyone who’s seen the 1950 animation of the same name will know what to expect, though there are a few modern modifications. With a kidfriendly G classification, this is a good opportunity to introduce Cinderella, Prince Charming (Richard Madden) and the Fairy Godmother (Helena Bonham Carter) to a young, new generation.

The tale of a woman (Cameron Diaz, pictured) with commitment problems, who calls on her two girlfriends (Selma Blair and Christina Applegate) to help her find a man who might be Mr Right. It’s coarse, but the sharp comic performances of Applegate and Blair mean this audacious variation on the chick flick scores plenty of laughs.

celebrity birthday JENNIFER LAWRENCE 15 August 1990 Jennifer’s ruling planet throughout the next 12 months is powerful, energetic Mars. How she uses her energies is going to determine how well thing go for her during this period.

Mars is often associated with arguments, challenges and mishaps, which means she might often be impulsive and intense. This could lead to misunderstandings, possibly even lawsuits, or complications in her relationships. The key to dealing with these obstructive forces is to go within and draw upon the deeper levels of awareness.

in the stars ARIES 21 MAR – 20 APR

CANCER 22 JUNE – 22 JULY

LIBRA 24 SEPT – 23 OCT

CAPRICORN 22 DEC – 20 JAN

Focus your attention on work, as it is unlikely to get by without some confusion manifesting itself.

What’s more, you may not care for a colleague’s attitude, however, you still need to do your best to avoid misunderstandings. Your stars favour creative pursuits throughout August.

You may have the ability to study and put long made plans and ideas into action. Energetic, intellectual conditions are looking good when it comes to the realisation of your hopes and dreams. Also be extra mindful when driving to avoid minor or serious accidents.

What your next life move should be will become apparent in the near future. Be careful of being your own worst enemy by over-reacting; above all else, keep your insecurities in check. It’s a happy and productive time for the sportsperson, artist or those who deal with children.

TAURUS 21 APR – 21 MAY

LEO 23 JULY – 23 AUG

SCORPIO 24 OCT – 22 NOV

No matter what is happening, you need your rest and relaxation.

What your next move is needs to be considered seriously this week.

If you’re already in a relationship, you will be rediscovering each other, perhaps due to a special anniversary or old memories which are being reawakened.

You may be introduced to some new contacts through a loved one.

Friends may be making plans for a celebration and an invitation seems to be winging its way to you. Venus is in Leo and it is a great time to spruce up your home or to arrange a celebration.

With the Sun in Leo until 23 August, a vibrant social mood will colour this month and it’s a time when you’ll find it relatively easy to find support and affection. Your enthusiasm is contagious, but you need to keep your feet on the ground.

It looks as though unspoken words are making everyone unhappy. You will need to deal with this situation in a mature fashion and be prepared to discuss disagreements and differences of opinion. If you ignore this advice, come bedtime you could toss and turn for many hours.

GEMINI 22 MAY – 21 JUNE

A good sense of timing and an enterprising spirit will help you to make progress and restore confidence. Expect recognition for imaginative ideas which you communicate and apply well during the year ahead. Your values may go through a fundamental shift.

Control a tendency to overspend!

You will be surrounded by friendly, chatty people which will be a delightful experience this week.

Children or young people will be bringing you a great deal of pleasure, either because they make some kind of achievement or simply because you enjoy doing things together.

VIRGO 24 AUG – 23 SEPT

SAGITTARIUS 23 NOV – 21 DEC Naturally, you want to be top dog, but perhaps you are forgetting to look at the needs of those who are offering you real support. On a positive note, the influence of the planets can’t help but to encourage greater confidence, optimism and a focus on enjoying yourself.

AQUARIUS 21 JAN – 19 FEB Get matters in the areas of banking, tax, insurance or bureaucracy cleared out of the way so that you can breathe more easily. You will have to find the middle ground at some point where relationships are concerned, so be careful of being your own worst enemy at the moment.

PISCES 20 FEB – 20 MAR Sorting out your financial life is of major importance at this time. It is crucial that you don’t become resentful, but try to be practical and far-sighted when it comes to your long-term financial security.

Loved ones will offer some great advice which should be followed.

My favourite things

RING

After completing an Indigenous silversmith workshop, I travelled to Scotland, where I acquired this ring and learned about their local practice. That was really cool to see their different techniques, and the ways their culture tell their stories through art.

KANGAROO SKIN

Photos Denholm Samaras

Traditionally burning and carving on kangaroo and possum skins has been done by my people for a long time … For me, it’s a way of continuing culture and stories on traditional mediums.

Now based in Canberra, Krystal is a jewellery designer, painter and a cultural facilitator with a vision for women and men to feel strong, connected and empowered.

SUNRISE STATION REVISITED This is my mum’s book. She wrote it all by hand, then my dad went into the computer room and typed it up. It’s got a lot of family photos, my elders, and cool stories in there.

EARRINGS This is one of the pieces I’ve created for my arts business. This is for our ‘Sacred Tracks’ collection, and is my way of paying respects to our native animals and making some pretty cool bling, too.

NECKLACE I designed this necklace for the Culture to Catwalk fashion show that was run at the NGA, and hand-painted it myself … It’s just a really beautiful piece and I love it. Each component of the necklace carries significance for me.

THE WORLD’S FIRST MOON DOME COIN Fifty years ago, the world was transfixed as over half a billion people watched one of mankind’s greatest achievements – the Apollo 11 moon landing, live on television.

Today, fifty years on, history is made again as their achievement is celebrated on a remarkable world-first, The Moon Landing 50th Anniversary Moon Dome Coin.

This coin is a marvel of modern minting, struck as a solid dome, the surface of the moon with its craters and contours are perfectly replicated with an antique patina finish. This is the first time that the lunar surface has been minted onto a domed shaped crown coin and the first-ever to feature the portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse. Only 50 years after the moon landing, could a coin of this technically demanding specification be minted. As such it is strictly limited in availability. Reserve yours today for just $29.99 plus $9.99 p&h and it will come presented in the bespoke Moon Landing 50th Anniversary Collectors’ Pack.
