Power Independence with Solar Batteries

Over half of all Australian homes will have batteries for energy storage in the next ten years... The new trend in solar power is to include battery storage and generate enough power for day and night use. With energy prices rising by 17% or more on the 1st of July, the intelligent option is to vote with your feet and begin to take control of your own power production with investment in the latest solar energy revolution.

Australia is way behind the world in the development of cheap, renewable energy with the coal and gas lobby blocking any new clean energy development. This is making Australian power costs among the highest in the world, leaving household to fend for themselves using solar power to offset rising electricity costs.

24 Hour Solar Power

With Feed in Tariffs now ridiculously low, there is no point left in sharing solar power with the grid. At 6 cents per kWh it is not equitable to export power when you have to buy your energy back later at 30 cents. Solar Power Battery Storage is the best way to beat the unfair electricity network and create energy independence today. 888 Solar Tek, a local solar company based in the Northern Rivers, is providing revolutionary new technology that slashes the cost of battery storage, providing 24 hour solar power to homes. With custom designs based on your energy use, they maximise the benefits of your investment and deliver a cost effective solution for your power needs. They offer a free energy assessment and are delivering hybrid and off-grid power systems that are much cheaper than buying from the grid.

888

The End of Support for Solar NSW Solar Bonus Ends This Year!

Government subsidies for solar export to the grid will end this year in NSW. If you are you one of the smart people in the Northern Rivers who are benefiting from the 60 cent per kWh export you will need to make plans for the coming changes. Payments under this plan expire at the end of 2016, leaving solar owners with 4 - 6 cents for each kWh exported after then. 20,000 homes in the Northern Rivers will have to install new meters to be able to use the power they now export entirely to the grid. 888 Solar Tek, your local hybrid and off-grid solar experts, have developed a smart migration plan, which will eliminate 80% or more of your ongoing power charges. They can install additional solar panels and battery storage now, to cover all of your daily energy use, slashing power charges.

The Truth About the

Every cent of the Solar Bonus generated by your existing system is collected right up until the end of the scheme, when both system are combined. Your new hybrid solar system allows greater independence and typically pays for itself in 3-5 years. 888 Solar Tek tailor the new solar system around your existing equipment and provide 12 months free monitoring and support. If you have very low electricity usage you may choose to go off the grid altogether to eliminate fixed supply charges that make up a large part of your bill. 888 Solar Tek have new technologies that can operate both on and off the grid. This makes staged transition to energy self-sufficiency cost effective and avoids costly equipment change-over.

REAL Cost of Solar Batteries...

The Gel-acid batteries were much cheaper to buy, lasted longer and could be configured in many different sizes to better match each home's energy use. They do not explode if over charged like Lithium Ion, are compatible with all inverter and charger systems and have a welldeveloped re-cycling program. Gel-acid batteries have been tried and tested over decades and, with fifth generation desulphation technology, are the lowest cost and best value battery available.

Many new battery technologies have leapt into the solar arena and early adaptors have had mixed reports about the real value of their performance. Not all that glitters is gold and some of the best PR campaigns have hidden the real cost of new solar batteries. The real test for new battery technologies is measured by their ability to deliver a cost per stored kWh below grid price. Every battery has a life span in the number of cycles of charge and discharge they can achieve before they lose capacity, with 60% being the standard for end of life. The cost of batteries divided by the cycle life gives the best measure of their value.

888 Solar Tek is the leading supplier of Gel acid batteries and hybrid and off-grid solar systems in the Northern Rivers and one of the few solar companies that offer custom battery sizing based on your power use. They retro-fit batteries to existing systems and provide cost benefit analysis based on your current and projected power costs. With local, personalised service and an ethos to always look after their customers' needs first, 888 Solar Tek are the number one choice for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers.

Other than the special feeling you get from being the first boy with the new toy, all of the Lithium Ion batteries on offer fail to satisfy, none of them delivering stored energy for less than the cost of buying it direct from the grid. Some like the BYD Mini, featured in recent TV ads on the North Coast, cost over twice as much as buying power from the grid!

Why pay for electricity when it is cheaper to make your own?

888 Solar Tek is the top-selling retailer for solar battery systems in the Northern Rivers. We supply customised new or retrofit systems to match your power use - not a one size fits all package. You get personalised service with free 12 month system monitoring. The electricity grid is a huge monopoly that serves the large generators and retailers. Selling your solar power for 6Â˘ per kWh or less is unfair! Beat the network by generating and storing all of your own power now. Call us for free, honest advice before you buy anywhere else.

NSW Solar bonus scheme ends this year!

The Sanden EcoÂŽ Hot Water Heat Pump System use up to 78% less energy than conventional electric water heaters. Quicker and easier to install than solar, you get the savings right away. Sanden is the most efficient and eco-friendly hot water heat pump system on the market, offering up to 50% faster heat recovery than its competitors. Call us for all your Solar Hot Water needs on 02 6688 4480.

Only Motoma Gel-acid batteries with an Australian invented de-sulphation device which increases their lifespan by years, deliver a storage cost well below the grid price.

You may not of noticed yet, but your power bill just went up by over 17% on the 1st of July. We all know we are getting ripped off by the electricity networks and that it will only get worse. As the rage grows, many people are seriously looking at getting batteries for their solar systems to be more independent from the bloodsucking grid now.

siren) response but was later upgraded to a 1A emergency (highest priority) whilst the ambulance was on its way. Mr Cook was transported to Gold Coast University Hospital, although it was believed he arrived almost 1.5 hours later at 5:28pm in a critical condition. Tweed Byron Local Area Command police are investigating the circumstances which led to Mr Cook's death, with a report to be prepared for the NSW Coroner. Meanwhile, the young father’s family, including two young children, were by his side at the hospital as he passed away. His death resulted in an outpouring of heartache and support for the family, with reports around the death receiving national coverage. Northern Rivers Regional Rugby League president Brian Rix told the media that it was a shocking tragedy. “We’ve spoken with the Mustangs. Of course they’re all distressed, the players that were around there,” he said. “Country Rugby League is organising some counselling for the players that might require it, and we’re talking with the Casino club as well just to make sure that they’re all okay.” The NRRRL has decided the

Murwillumbah Mustangs will not replay the semi final that was ceased on Sunday. NRRRL President Brian Rix said he consulted Mr Cook’s family before deciding this weekend’s grand final will go ahead with the Mustangs to play Cudgen, an all local affair. “I’ve been in contact with both clubs, both Casino and Murwillumbah, and made sure that they understand the decision,” he told the media. “We spoke to the police and we’ve spoken to some executive members of the Country Rugby League and our decision is the game is as it stands at half time of the game on Sunday. “That is that Murwillumbah have won the game 8-4. “It won’t be replayed and they’ll move on into the grand final. “I spoke with Grant’s dad and he was adamant that he wanted the boys to continue and make sure they played.” The grand final will no doubt serve as a tribute to Grant. Meanwhile the Mustangs have set up an account to assist Coleen and the family through this tough time. Details: Murwillumbah Rugby League Football Club Limited. Account number: 449486661.

A DEEP sadness has swept over the Tweed Shire this week following the tragic death of 28-year-old Grant Cook during a Murwillumbah Mustangs home game at Stan Sercombe Oval on Sunday, September 11, at 3.30pm. Although a NSW Coroner’s report is yet to reveal the cause of death, Mr Cook received a heavy tackle during the Murwillumbah Mustangs semifinals match against Casino RSM Cougars. Witnesses said Mr Cook got up immediately from the tackle and made his way to the sideline before he collapsed. He was believed to have lost consciousness and went into a seizure and eventually cardiac arrest. A doctor, who was watching the game, rushed to Mr Cook’s aid and performed CPR prior to an ambulance arriving about 20 minutes later. NSW Ambulance has now launched an investigation into the response times of the ambulance after it was revealed it took up to 1.5 hours to transport Mr Cook to Gold Coast University Hospital and 20 minutes for the initial response. An ambulance spokesperson told the media that the case was initially listed as an emergency 1C (lights and

Baby Show and Fete a roaring success

To The Weekly team. On behalf of the All Saints Anglican Church Fete committee I would like the sincerely thank you for the advertising of the recent Baby Show and Fete, held on Saturday, September 3.

I feel that the site in Centennial Drive is definitely better in all ways than the BlackRocks site for both the gentlemen involved and the koala population. There is already much activity in the newly suggested area which I am sure would be far more convenient, so there would be very little impact on the surroundings there and the koalas would not suffer from intrusion caused by the activity surrounding the Men’s Shed.

Incidental drug use arrests are becoming less likely to attract convictions. It is drug use among the disadvantaged that is most likely to come to public notice.

Many serious traffic accidents can be linked to drug use and driving under the influence of drug use and driving should continue to be policed using reasonable reading limits.

a licence to construct a temporary site when a permanent, centrally located site at Lot 3, Centennial Drive Pottsville is available, and would make a much better option than a temporary site at Black Rocks sports field. Cathryn Cole, Kingscliff

Council needs to take lead role on this

Of course it would make sense to locate the men’s shed at lot 3 Centennial Drive. Lot 3 would provide a permanent home from the outset for the men’s shed, whereas the Black Rock sports field location would only be a temporary site and would incur costs and upheaval of relocation at a later date. Lot 3 Centennial Drive is in a central location close to amenities, plus it is crown land. It is astounding that the Tweed Shire Council would want to consider granting a license for construction of the men’s shed at Black Rocks sports field when the superior option of Lot 3 Centennial Dr now exists. Tweed Shire Council has a responsibility to exercise wise stewardship of the threatened coastal koalas, because this iconic species is a national treasure. The Black Rocks koala population is vital because it is located in an area that facilitates movement between North to South and East to West. Given the increasing development pressure placed on this fragile koala population, Tweed Shire Council should be jumping on Lot 3 Centennial Drive as a fantastic solution that satisfies human needs and spares the fragile Black Rocks koalas an industrial facility in their midst. I urge all Tweed Shire Councillors to please act in the public interest of all Australians and future generations by declining a license to place the men’s shed in Black Rocks sports field, thereby protecting the koalas from this unnecessary disturbance because they are already at a high risk of extinction in the near future. Please grant all necessary permits for the men’s shed to be built at Lot 3 Centennial Drive, which offers superior amenity than the sports field.

Finally, a win win situation for all regarding the Pottsville Men’s Shed. The Black Rocks Oval is not suitable for many reasons. It is a temporary site only so an utter waste of money if there is a suitable permanent site. I imagine not easy to get to without your own transport; isolated and could be subject to vandalism; and a fire and noise risk to the already struggling and endangered koalas. These koalas are on the brink of extinction and hardly need the stress of an industrial type facility under their noses. And equally the men shedders need to get on with their work in peace. The central Pottsville location could also benefit the primary school and is near other community facilities. Solution solved. Susie Hearder, Pottsville

“I support the shift, do you council?”

If council does not approve this new permanent site for the Men’s Shed it will prove they want development at Black Rocks sports field, irrespective of the impacts on this critically important and endangered coastal koala population. Menkit Prince, Uki

Pottsville Men’s Shed president says Black Rocks shift not so easy POTTSVILLE & District Men’s Shed president Michael Ryan has slammed suggestions the group should deviate from their current proposed shed site at Black Rocks Sports Field and build the shed at Lot 3 Centennial Drive. In a three-page letter, Mr Ryan said The Weekly’s recent article (September 8) had “given the impression that the Men’s Shed can be easily relocated to Lot 3 Centennial Drive”, an assumption he said that was completely wrong. Mr Ryan cited five reasons the site could not be shifted including the cost implications of site clearance and infrastructure works required at Lot 3 Centennial Drive, which were not needed at the Black Rocks site. “The cost implications of the Men’s Shed being redesigned to incorporate toilet facilities which already exist at the Black Rocks site,” he said. “The Men’s Shed has already engaged a contractor to build the shed and has paid a substantial deposit to facilitate its prefabrication. As recently as August 3 this year the Pottsville & District Men’s Shed (P&DMS) members voted 26 to 3 in favour of pressing ahead with building the shed at the Black Rocks site and that remains our intention. And finally, cancellation of the contract would no doubt have serious financial implications.” Mr Ryan said the timing, cost and hindrances placed on the P&DMS means the site could take years to be built. “The reality is that if we were to decide to relocate to Lot 3 we estimate that, even with a fair wind, it would take at least three years to get to where we are now with the Black Rocks site,” Mr Ryan said. “Long before this the various bodies which have provided funds for the shed would, quite rightly, be asking a lot of embarrassing questions about what happened to their money. “Furthermore, we still have to raise funds to meet the fit out costs of the shed and are therefore in fund raising mode. Unwarranted and unnecessary controversy about the location of the shed is the last thing we need at this point in time.” Mr Ryan said the P&DMS had deliberately been “very circumspect about responding to any outside interference in its internal affairs”. “Ever since July 2014, when the Council, in the absence

of any other suitable sites, supported P&DMS request to use Black Rocks Sports Field as the potential site for the Men’s Shed, (names omitted), have been constantly waging a campaign with two objectives 1. To prevent the Shed being built at the Black Rocks site and 2. To persuade the Council to abandon the Sports Field and allow it to return to bush,” Mr Ryan said. “It appears that the Mayor shares these objectives. The campaign has been based around various environmental issues associated with the site but, in particular, the alleged detrimental impact of the Shed on the Koala population in the area.” “However, at that time the Pottsville Preschool had been granted, from NSW Crown Lands, a licence to investigate the use of part of Lot 3 as a car park, being required for their proposed extensions. The Preschool has been negotiating with Crown Lands since February 2012. In June this year (2016) the Preschool lodged their application for development approval of their extensions. “This application will need to be reviewed, assessed and approved by Council, before any other possible usage can be considered for this site. “It has taken the Preschool over five years to get to the point where they can lodge an application for developmental approval. There is no reason to believe that it would take any less time for the P&DMS to negotiate with Crown Lands to secure the remainder or part there of as a site for the Men’s Shed. “Also, we have no information about the terms and conditions upon which Crown Lands would make the site available. The impression given in the article is that there is pending legislation which will transfer control of Crown Land to the Council which implies that decisions about the use of the remainder of Lot 3 Centennial Drive could be made much quicker. “Our information is that the proposed legislation has not even been drafted. Currently there are a number of review processes being undertaken at the State Government level, including a Parliamentary enquiry into the State Government’s management of Crowns Lands. These may or may not result in the ultimate transfer of some Crown Land to council. “It has taken two years to prepare and approve the Development Application for the Men’s Shed at the Black

Rocks site at a cost in the region of $30,000. “If the Shed were to be moved to another site this investment would be lost and potentially, a similar amount would need to be found for a new Development Application for Lot 3 Centennial Drive site and, presumably, it would take the same amount of time to complete. “Lot 3 Centennial Drive has exactly the same suite of environmental issues as the Black Rocks site and similarly, Koalas are present. “This calls into question motives for trying to stop the Shed being located at the Black Rocks site and smacks of hypocrisy. The photograph accompanying the article, which includes the Mayor and another Green’s candidate, looks like a pre-arranged publicity stunt to promote the Green’s in the upcoming election. “The relationship we have with the Pottsville Primary School is very important to the P&DMS. Whilst it might be less convenient, there is no reason why our interaction with students at the school cannot be continued and developed when our purpose built shed is operational.” YOUR SAY: Do you think the Pottsville & District Men’s Shed should be located at Black Rock Sports Fields? Send your letters or comments to editor@theweekly.net.au

Read Mayor Katie Milne’s response MAYOR Katie Milne said the resolution of Council in 2014 “clearly stated that it was a maximum five year lease and that Council was to continue to pursue a permanent site”. “Mr Ryan was well aware of that resolution,” she said. “If Mr Ryan didn’t agree with the terms of the resolution he should not have proceeded with the application. “I would have thought Mr Ryan would be pleased with the possibility of this really great central location. “I can’t understand why he is so enamored of the isolated site at Black Rocks. “I was concerned that Mr Ryan advised he has entered into a building contract already. “He shouldn’t be doing that until he has been granted the Licence for the land, which hasn’t been approved yet. Centennial Drive would be a great alternative site for these Mens Shedders. There are no other options for Koalas.”

THE LEGAL LIGHT! Ugg-ly legal battle over Ugg “Ugg“ was probably the ﬁrst human word ever uttered by primordial cavemen and it’s about to be shouted by lawyers in a US court.

Walk for Women’s Health Week

A GROUP of local ladies decided to organise a walk around the Murwillumbah CBD last Wednesday, September 7, as part of Women’s Health Week. The walk was organised by prominent locals Sally Mather from First National Real Estate Murwillumbah and Tahlia Boan from Missy T Personal Training. The walk attracted another nine local women who linked arms for a women’s health walk. “We wanted to do something for women’s health week

so we organised a walk around the CBD with a group of ladies,” Mrs Mather said. “We stopped by tweed fruit exchange and they supplied us with fresh cut fruit, which was extremely nice.” Mrs Boan said The Jean Hailes Women’s Health Week is a week to focus on your health, learn more and take action. “We feel that women need to support each other and this walk was a way to meet new people and have some fun whilst raising money for the Jean Hailes Foundation,” she said.

In Australia warm woolly Ugg boots have been a winter staple since the 1970s. The sheepskin boots were warm and easy to slip into. The woolly boot has grown into fashionable footwear and a billion dollar industry around the world. But, as Tony Mitchell of Stacks Law Firm notes, there’s more in law to Ugg than a bulky sheepskin boot. “In law it’s all about who has the trade mark rights to the word ‘Ugg’ in relation to sheepskin boots,” Mr Mitchell said. “Having a trade mark on a particular product is vital in protecting marketing and sales rights, and the law can get complicated, especially when it comes to trade marks in different states and countries.

“The Ugg case demonstrates that trade mark protection has to be established in every jurisdiction in which a product is to be sold or distributed, and the need to do it early.” American footwear giant Deckers began court action earlier this year by suing an Australian company for selling sheepskin boots called Ugg in the US.

Calls for Anchourage Island Boardwalk to be saved SEVERAL TWEED residents have called on the Tweed Shire Council to spare the Anchorage Island Boardwalk at Keith Curran Reserve in Tweed Heads this week. The Weekly received several phone calls regarding the boardwalk as well as one local who dropped a copy of the (September 8) article at the office on Tuesday (pictured below), which highlighted some of what the locals think.

Deckers argues it holds the trade mark to the name Ugg in the US and many other countries, and that means nobody else can use the name Ugg to sell sheepskin boots. The Australian company argues Ugg has its origins in Australia as a generic term for sheepskin boots, and the American firm shouldn’t have been allowed to claim a trade mark on a name that was already in use. The firm argues Australian-made Ugg boots were exported to the US well before Deckers bought the US trade mark from an Australian entrepreneur in 1985. “The important point in law is whether the US trade mark on Ugg was based on a falsehood, in that the trade mark application claimed the word Ugg had no prior significance in the footwear industry,” Mr Mitchell said. “The French blocked the world from using the word champagne as it is a region of France. That’s why we now have to label it sparkling wine. Ugg boots are lining up for the same international legal battle.” Interestingly, according to an ABC report, Deckers had been selling its boots stamped Ugg Australia, even though they are made in China.

The Weekly contacted Tweed Shire Council for comment in relation to the boardwalk and whether it could be spared. The boardwalk was built as part of an employment skills development project (work for the dole) in 1997. According to a Tweed Shire Council media spokesperson the boardwalk was put to the community for comment four months ago through the yoursaytweed.com.au

consultation website. “Following that feedback, staff recommended that the boardwalk be closed. However, that is yet to be formally endorsed by the Council. While closing the boardwalk is certainly an option, staff are making enquiries into other options which may extend the life of the asset,” the media spokesperson said. Council said the structure was closed due to concerns surrounding public safety. “Various deficiencies were noted during a routine inspection including: failure, or imminent failure, of numerous connections between pile and headstock, minor rotting of structural timbers, subsidence and rotation of several piles “No date has been set on when a decision might be made.” The Weekly also asked Council about community consultation and why several residents said they were not engaged to communicate their views on the boardwalk. “There was a Tweed Link article about the proposed closure on July 5, 2016, a media release on July 6, 2016, site signage installed on closure some months ago, requests for public comment on the yoursaytweed.com.au website four months ago and a Councillor workshop on June 9, 2016,” the spokesperson said.

“As this legal case over Ugg boots shows, it’s very important to get expert legal advice if you want to protect your product or challenge others who infringe on your intellectual property rights,” Mr Mitchell said.

A SPIKE in bankruptcies across the Tweed since last quarter has revealed some shocking statistics that one in 10 locals are now blacklisted from credit cards - and in many cases because of an unpaid mobile phone bill. The most recent Australian Financial Security Authority (AFSA) report shows over the last three months there has been a 30 per cent jump in the personal bankruptcies in the Tweed Valley. Credit compliance expert Laurence Barlow, who circulated the statistics across the local media this week, said it’s reached the point that one in 10 people in the Tweed Valley have been banned from borrowing with mainstream financial lenders. “There is a growing number of cashstrapped locals getting themselves into financial trouble,” Mr Barlow said.

Credit blacklisting spikes across Tweed

“When you can’t use the traditional sources of borrowing it can lead to all sorts of problems. The majority of these credit problems stem from an unpaid mobile phone bill – the Telcos are brutal. “If you’re more than 60 days late paying a telephone bill that’s more than $150, you can be blacklisted from getting traditional credit for five years. Most people don’t even realise what’s going on – they only find out when they next try to apply for credit or get finance and are turned away. “A couple of unwise decisions later – like resorting to payday loans – and things can quickly spiral into a vicious cycle of more debt.” Mr Barlow said the digital market offers a range of new options to manage budgets set reminders to help you take control of your finances.

New service for dialysis patients

Exclusive report: MURWILLUMBAH LOCAL June Purcell has clocked up thousands of kilometres during the past three years traveling to The Tweed Hospital to receive her vital renal dialysis treatments. Mrs Purcell, who has lived in Murwillumbah for the past 77 years, has required the treatment twice a week. She has been forced to rely on two carers including her daughter Cathie Franken to provide her with transport each week to receive the treatments. But her situation, alongside dozens of other locals, is set to improve once the new six-chair satellite renal dialysis unit comes online at Murwillumbah Hospital soon. The renal dialysis unit will be built at Murwillumbah District Hospital following the NSW Ministry of Health announcement of $400,000 funding for the unit. It’s a huge boost for the Murwillumbah District Hospital which last year had downsized its maternity ward to treat non-caesarean and low risk births only. State member for Lismore Thomas George MP met with hospital staff, Mrs Purcell and The Weekly on Friday, September 9, to make the announcement. Mrs Purcell will still be required to attend The Tweed Hospital for dialysis until such time as the unit is up and running with estimates the unit could come online by early 2017. The service will be a satellite service of the Tweed Byron Health Service Group Renal Dialysis Service, which currently provides in-centre and home-based renal dialysis services to the residents of the Tweed Local Government Area (LGA), Byron LGA and residents of the southern Gold Coast Service Level Agreements. “The $400,000 funding from NSW Health will provide the opportunity to commence the planning and design consultation phase for a purpose-built facility to address the need for in-centre renal dialysis in the Murwillumbah area,” Mr George said. “This funding will enable the establishment of a sixchair Renal Dialysis Unit at MDH to provide in-centre haemodialysis to patients with stable, dialysis-dependent kidney disease.” NNSW LHD Chief Executive Wayne Jones said this was great news for those local renal dialysis patients who

currently travel to The Tweed Hospital for treatment. “Once completed, a local dialysis unit at MDH will give back a huge amount of time to these patients that I am sure they will welcome,” Mr Jones said. “The Tweed Valley population growth and the growing ageing population, combined with the significant Aboriginal population, have all contributed to an increasing prevalence of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in the region which supports the development of the satellite renal dialysis service at MDH.” Mrs Purcell said she was pleased the Murwillumbah District Hospital was being recognised with this funding and the provision of services such as renal dialysis. “It’s something myself and other local people rely on,” she said. “And having to drive to The Tweed Hospital for such a long time has taken its toll both physically and financially, we’re really pleased this announcement has been made, I just hope it gets installed as soon as possible.” YOUR THOUGHTS: Is this a treatment you could benefit from in Murwillumbah?

Stroke Unit opens at Tweed Hospital NORTHERN NSW Local Health District (NNSW LHD) will officially open the new Acute Stroke Unit (ASU) of The Tweed Hospital on Friday, September 16, in conjunction with National Stoke Week. NNSW LHD Chief Executive Wayne Jones said the Tweed Byron Health Services Group had a higher-thanstate-average incident of Atrial Fibrillation, Hypertension, and high cholesterol leading to a higher-than-state-average incidence of stroke. “The Tweed Hospital sees more than 300 stroke and Transient Ischaemic Attack (TIA) admissions annually, with stroke one of Australia’s biggest killers and leading causes of disability,” Mr Jones said. “The importance of early care for patients experiencing stroke in an ASU model has been well documented during the past 20 years. “The stroke unit model of care provides tangible benefits to all stroke and TIA patients by facilitating early treatment of complications, a focused approach to clinical care and timely access to allied health professionals.” Mr Jones said the new ASU was supported by an increased number of allied health clinicians as well as Dr Abhay Daniel who provided medical governance. “The ASU supports patients with acute TIA and stroke from across the Tweed Valley, as well as patients from Byron Central Hospital and Murwillumbah District Hospital,” Mr Jones said. “The ASU has been operational since May 2016 and is a welcome addition to the services provided at TTH.”

Fernvale Primary school many decades ago

d after 100 years

Fernvale Primary still looks goo

Murwillumbah Potters working wonders in the original school room

Century old Fernvale Primary School remains community space By Madeleine Murray

ON APRIL 20, 1915, Charles Watt of Condong Range wrote a letter to Hon. J. Perry, Parliament House, Sydney. He enclosed a petition from the local dairy farmers asking that a school be built “as speedily as possible, as the distance to Murwillumbah is too great for children to travel to get educated.” He added that the residents “are willing to give a hand to build the school and even go as far as to fence it in”. By September the next year, the request had been granted, land cleared, local timber cut, and the one-room schoolhouse built in the bush off Fernvale Road. It opened on 18 September 1916, less than 18

months after the first letter. At Fernvale Primary, one very patient, resourceful teacher taught all the primary school subjects to about 18 pupils, from Year One to Year Six. Julie Johansen started Year One at Fernvale in 1964, and finished primary school there six years later. There were only three other children in her grade. She walked half a mile to school, barefoot. “If it was cold or rainy, we just ran!” she said. Some children walked from houses up to four miles away. Life was much harder in those days. Julie grew up on a dairy farm on Minnows Lane, an area that didn’t have power until the 1960s. Her aunt on an adjoining farm wrote: “The coming of electricity is something

I shall never forget – the electric iron was my greatest joy – no more lighting up that petrol iron.” Falling rural populations and better transport into Murwillumbah meant that the school wasn’t viable any more, and Fernvale Primary closed in December, 1976. Most of these little country schoolhouses have been moved, converted, abandoned, or demolished, but Fernvale lives on as a place of learning. Today, thanks to the Murwillumbah Potters and the Tweed Shire Council, the well-proportioned building still sits on the same stumps with the water tank in the same place. It has the same hardwood walls, brush box floors, and elegant double-hung, six-

over-six sash windows. Murwillumbah Potters built a wood-fired kiln on the land in 1980. Six years later, the group signed a lease and set up a clay workshop in the schoolhouse, where it has continued to flourish, with members’ fees, and grants from the Tweed Shire Council. The group holds classes and workshops in the idyllic location. Anyone can join, or just drop in for some casual lessons from one of the obliging members. A big working table sits in the old schoolhouse, with four pottery wheels in a smaller annex added in the late ‘60s. There are regular firings in the electric, gas, wood, and pit-burn kilns outside. So with 100 years of continuous learning, there will be a lot to celebrate at Fernvale Primary on September 18.

BALANCE is easily taken for granted. However when the fragile vestibular organs of the inner ear and brain are damaged by illness or injury, anyone can lose their ability to balance.

YOU COULD HAVE A BALANCE OR VESTIBULAR DISORDER

o achieve good physical balance, we rely on our brain, eyes, innerear, and musculoskeletal system to work in harmony. Balance disorders are typically under diagnosed and undertreated. More than 1/3 of adults aged 40 years and older experience vestibular dysfunction at some point in their lives. Common symptoms of vestibular disorders include vertigo and dizziness. Vertigo is a spinning or whirling sensation, or an illusion of the self or world moving. Dizziness is a lightheaded, floating or rocking sensation. Poor balance, nausea, visual disturbances, headache, hearing loss, tinnitus, and pain or fullness in the ears can accompany vestibular disorders.

HOW CAN YOUR OSTEOPATH HELP? There are many causes of dizziness or vertigo. But most types of vestibular disorders can be diagnosed by means of a thorough medical history and clinical examination. The most common type of vertigo is Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV), and once diagnosed is easily treated with repositioning manoeuvres, with a success rate of 90%. Another type of vertigo encountered is Cervicogenic Vertigo, which is due to a dysfunction in the neck. Again once diagnosed, it can be easily treated with Osteopathic intervention. Your Osteopath can diagnose most of the common types of vestibular disorders and can either treat the condition or refer on for further diagnosis and treatment. Dr Rudi Gerhardt B.Sc., D.O.

For some parents, the decision is simple. Their children go to the local public school – the school in the same government zone as their house. Other parents might want to look further afield at other government schools (‘out-of area’ schools) or private schools. THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING A SCHOOL FOR YOUR CHILD If you’re looking beyond the local public school, think about what will work best for your child’s characteristics, personality, strengths, needs and interests. You might also consider how different schools’ cultures and values sit with your family values and family life. Here are some other things you could think about.

educating your child at home? PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS How does the location of the school, cost or difficulty of travelling to and from the school, and public transport options affect you? Where are your child’s friends going to school? SCHOOL-SPECIFIC FACTORS How big is the school? How many children are enrolled there? What facilities does the school have to support your child’s learning – playgrounds, library, home language support, music programs, clubs and sporting teams? What are the school’s previous academic results or performance in other areas like the arts, sport or community engagement? How well does the school support children with special needs, if your child has a disability, developmental delay, autism spectrum disorder or other need?

Do you want your child to have a religious education?

SCHOOL COMMUNICATION AND CONNECTIONS What opportunities are there for parent and family involvement with the school, and how is communication between home and the school managed?

Do you need to send your child to boarding school, or are you interested in

Does the school have a connection with the local community?

PERSONAL VALUES AND PREFERENCES Do you prefer public or private education?

Healthy ideas for lunch boxes

GRAINS, MOSTLY WHOLEGRAIN AND HIGH-FIBRE VARIETIES Remember to include lots of varieties of bread, fillings and spreads, to retain interest in sandwiches. LUNCH BOX DRINKS Water is the best drink for children and should be packed with the school lunch box every day. A drink bottle filled with water that children can refill throughout the day is an excellent way to keep kids hydrated. On a warm day, frozen water bottles can help keep lunches chilled and also provide a refreshing drink. Plain milk is another great drink option for school lunches, and reduced-fat options are suitable for school-aged children. UHT milk is a handy, practical choice, because it does not need to be kept cold. Sugar-sweetened drinks are not suitable for children’s lunch boxes and these should be avoided. These include sugar-sweetened soft drinks and cordials, fruit drinks, vitamin waters, flavoured waters, mineral waters and ice teas, energy drinks and sports drinks. Artificially sweetened drinks do not add any sugar or energy (kilojoules) to the diet. However, they teach kids the ‘habit’ of drinking sweet drinks and can result in a preference for sweet drink choices. Some artificially sweetened drinks such as diet soft drinks are also acidic and can result in dental health problems. Artificially sweetened drinks are not appropriate for children. Flavoured milks and fruit juices add sugar to children’s diets and should only be provided occasionally.

EDucation FRUIT Include at least one serve of fruit in your child’s lunch box each day. Use fresh seasonal fruit whenever possible. Canned fruit in natural juice (with no added sugar) is also a good alternative. Dried fruit is high in sugar and can stick to teeth, resulting in dental health problems. It is best to include dried fruit only occasionally. VEGETABLES Remember to include vegetables in your child’s lunch box every day. Encourage children to enjoy the crunch and colour of raw vegetables. Try salad or grilled vegetables such as capsicum or eggplant in your rolls or sandwiches. Try vegetable sticks with dips, or a container of mixed raw vegetables. DAIRY – MILK, YOGHURT, CHEESE AND ALTERNATIVES Children need dairy foods such as milk, yoghurt and cheese for optimal growth and development. It is important to put some dairy options in children’s lunch boxes every day. If your child cannot tolerate dairy foods, use suitable alternatives such as calcium-fortified soy or rice drink, or soy yoghurt. One serve of dairy is 250mL of milk, 200g of yoghurt (one small tub) or 40g of cheese (two slices). PROTEIN – MEAT OR MEAT ALTERNATIVES Each day, the lunchbox should include a food that is high in protein, such as lean meat or poultry, fish, eggs, tofu, legumes, beans, nuts and seeds. If your school has a nut-free policy, peanut butter and other nuts should not be included in your child’s lunchbox.

Tweed youths present well for 20th Les Peterkin Portrait Prize THE 2016 Les Peterkin Portrait Prize for local primary school students has broken records this month, after more than 3000 entries from 37 schools, four enthusiastic judges and 40 winners. The annual Prize (LPPP) is named after legendary local artist and art teacher Les Peterkin, and this year marks its 20th anniversary. On display at the Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Art Centre from 16 September to 4 December 2016, this event celebrates the enormous artistic talent of local primary school students. Students worked on the theme Me, Myself and I, sketching, collaging and painting artworks that capture their unique personality or a special characteristic through self-

portraiture. Prize Coordinator Marianne Galluzzo said the standard of the art presented was - as usual very high. “This year’s theme asked students to create a portrait that best describes themselves as an individual. They were encouraged to investigate ways in which other artists depict themselves, and how to use the principles and elements of art and design to express their ideas,” Ms Galluzzo said. The 2016 judges - a local Bundjalung Elder, Aunty Dale Williams, Education Support Officer and faithful LPPP supporter Ronalda Combo, the Gallery’s Education and Audience Development Officer, Jodi Ferrari, and primary school teacher

and cartoonist Russell Hayes - were all extremely impressed with the creativity and effort of every child who entered. First prize winners from the three age categories: Ava Ziles (5-7 years) from Dungay Public School, Charlie Wappett (8-10 years) from Byron Community Primary School, and Delta Fox (1113 years) from Chillingham Public School. Each of these prize winners, and the creators of 37 other prizewinning and commended works, will have the thrill of seeing their artworks professionally framed and hung in a professional gallery setting. Another 200 outstanding works will be displayed in folios for the duration of the exhibition. The Prize is made possible

Ava Ziles, The happy girl

by the financial support of Tweed Shire Council and Tyalgum Public School, with assistance from the Friends of Tweed Regional Gallery & Margaret Olley Arts Centre, and Derivan. “Last but not least, the Prize would not be possible without the enthusiasm of art-loving parents, volunteers and teachers,”

Charlie Wappett, Pink Hair Dye

Ms Galluzzo said. The Prize’s official opening and presentation ceremonies promise to be one of the biggest events at the Gallery this year and will be held on Sunday 18 September. Everyone is welcome to attend the celebrations, which begin at 10am with a fun art making activity.

The exhibition will be officially opened at 11am by Tyalgum Public School Principal Janelle Cloherty, followed by the keenly anticipated announcement of winners and prizegiving by the man himself Les Peterkin. Throughout the event, visitors will be entertained by wandering mime artiste Michele Jean.

Tweed Valley Woodcrafters Tweed Valley to launch have new dedicated home ADHD support group A LARGE crowd gathered for the official opening of the Tweed Valley Woodcrafter’s Shed at Murwillumbah Showgrounds on Friday, September 9. Member for Lismore Thomas George MP spoke at the event and said the acquisition and completion of the project was made possible through the Government Community Building Partnership Program. Mr George present awards of gratitude and appreciation to two of the three

local companies who generously assisted through the offers of their services and materials in the construction of the new facility. Members from the Elanora, Richmond, Gold Coast Woodcrafting groups and the representatives from Pottsville & District Men’s Shed, swelled the attendance of the visitors to witness a remarkable display of local talent.

ADHA SUPPORT Group facilitator Natalie Dreha is calling on parents to attend the Tweed Valley’s first Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) Support Group meeting on Friday, October 14. Mrs Dreha said the ADHD support group will be a place where carers of children, with ADHD, ODD, anxiety and challenging behaviours can come together in a supportive and informative way. “Carers can share ideas and strategies in regards to managing difficult behaviours. There will be up to date information sheets available and guest speakers,” she said. “As the parent of a child with ADHD, you may feel alone and misunderstood as there is so much misinformation around ADHD. “That’s why support groups are important for us. They can help us to see the light at the end of the tunnel, and to

find support along the way.” Mrs Dreha said less than seven per cent of Australian children are diagnosed with ADHD. “ADHD was first recorded in medical journals in 1792,” she said. “So it is not a new disorder. However, it has a bad name associated with it, thanks to shows like “A Current Affair”. Who show hyped up boys on a roof. “There are actually three types of ADHD. Hyperactive, Inattentive and combined type. Which is both Hyperactive and Inattentive.” To find out more and express your interest in the support group visit Facebook.com/ ADHD Murwillumbah or phone Mrs Dreha 0427 778 667. For Banora Point resident visit Facebook.com/ Tweed Banora ASD, ODD, ADHD. Support group is every second Monday of the month, Banora Community Centre.

Living Life To The Full Today is the oldest you’ve ever been and the youngest you’ll ever be again

How do I know when I need a hearing aid? Hearing loss can sneak up on you. Most people who come for a hearing assessment to discover they have hearing loss have already lost a considerable portion of their hearing. This is because hearing loss is a very gradual process. The inner ear or cochlear is shaped like a snail and inside there are thousands of tiny hair cells. Over time, these tiny hair cells become damaged. This is most commonly caused by ageing, and occurs very slowly. Generally speaking hearing loss will begin in the high frequency range first. This spectrum includes thousands of environmental sounds such as birds singing, the car indicator and soft footsteps. When listening to speech, it often means the misinterpretation of consonants,

such as ‘f’ ‘s’ ‘th’. So a word such as ‘fun’ you may hear as ‘sun’ or you may often be taking a guess or relying on context to determine what is being said. More extensive hearing loss signs are more obvious, such as needing to turn the TV volume up above the level of others in the home, asking others to repeat themselves, and having difficulty hearing amongst background noise. The good news is, it has now been extensively proven that the best time to start using a hearing aid is earlier rather than later. Those who are in the initial stages of hearing loss can benefit enormously from an improvement in clarity when listening to speech, and to access to the full high frequency spectrum in

their environment. Not only will they instantly hear conversations better, but as their hearing changes over time, it’s proven that the brain’s ability to adjust to a hearing aid is far greater than someone who waits until their hearing has dropped significantly. Today’s hearing aids are a far cry from those even ten years ago. Brand new microchips, digital programming, and discreet sizing are all standard features in even entry level devices. In fact if you are fitted and recommended a hearing aid by a professional, and are yourself motivated to wear them, there’s a 95% chance you will be a successful wearer.

Do you have trouble hearing in any of the following situations? ,/ ,/ ./ ./ ,/

Trouble hearing the TV clearly unless at a high volume Trouble hearing clearly in group conversations Trouble hearing voices above background noise Trouble hearing someone speak if they are not looking at you Trouble hearing certain voices (children or people with accents)

Mr. Property Services’ goal is to provide “a home for every budget” Mr. Property Services was established in 2008 to offer a professional and dedicated service at reasonable rates to the 'Buyers' and 'Sellers' of manufactured homes located in Lifestyle Villages and Residential Parks in the Tweed Valley and the southern tip of the Queensland Gold Coast. New Laws commenced on the 1st November 2015 The Law applying to homeowners in Caravan Parks, Residential Parks and Manufactured Home Estates has changed effective from the 1/11/2015. The Residential (Land Lease) Communities Act 2013 has replaced the Residential Parks Act 1998. One of the signiﬁcant changes that the Residential Land Lease Communities Act 2013 has introduced concerns “Assignment”. What is an assignment? When you sell your home in a Residential Park / Lifestyle Village, an assignment allows you to transfer (or assign) your site agreement to the Buyer[s]. This may be an option if the terms of the new agreement were not agreeable to the purchaser. If an operator refuses such a request then an application to NCAT can be made seeking an order that the operator consent to the assignment. So far this year two applications for the assignment of an Owner’s site agreement has resulted in two different sets of court orders, one in favour and one against. Park Owners are claiming they are not obliged to consent to a request for assignment and home owners claim consent cannot be unreasonably be withheld. Key issues, are relevant clauses of old

agreements still valid? Is a 'site agreement' also a 'tenancy agreement'? The Tenants Union residential park ofﬁcers are working hard in collecting facts from assignment case studies and lobbying MP's of both houses.

your Will and possible claims Probably one of the most obvious and often overlooked strategies is to ensure that you make some provision for a family member or beneficiary that you would normally completely cut out of the Will, if you had your choice. As much as this seems to fly in the face of what you want to achieve with your testamentary wishes, sometimes you can avoid a claim by making “adequate provision” to the family member involved. This often happens with “black sheep” children where the parents would normally leave them out of the Will completely. Rather than doing this, it is a much better solution to make some provision for them which is modestly reasonable in all of the circumstances and is pitched at a level that will inevitably make them think very carefully about whether they contest the Will or not. Recently a Supreme Court Judge said “Adequate means no more than sufficient. It does not connote generosity.” The reasoning behind this is that of more recent times the Courts have been much more willing to deny claims brought by adult children and if the executors of your estate are left with an arguable position in relation to possible claims being made by an adult child, it is quite possible that this could prevent and/or restrict any claims being made against the estate. Utilising this strategy means that you must obtain proper legal advice from lawyers who are experienced in this area of law and can take into account all of the relevant variables in your family situation and the assets of the estate so that provision can be carefully crafted into the Will in order to prevent a claim being made. 3.Transfer some or all of your assets while you are still alive Transferring assets prior to your death can avoid a claim being made against your estate with the reasoning being that there are no assets in your estate after you die. Unfortunately the provisions of notional estate in NSW can thwart this strategy if the transaction occurs within specified timeframes with reference to the date of death but this strategy can succeed in the State of Qld. It is a risky strategy in that if you give away all of your assets before your death, you risk whoever you give them to not supporting you or simply taking off with the assets to deal with as they please. There are also quite dramatic effects that this can have in relation to your taxation and Centrelink benefits which will deem gifts to remain as assets in your name. This could mean that you could effectively get rid of all of your assets and then have Centrelink tell you that you are no longer entitled to a pension! You may also then receive a capital gains tax bill from the Australian Tax Office if you are not properly advised. There is also the possibility (if certain timeframe requirements are met) that if the assets are located within NSW, the aggrieved relative can bring a claim against the estate and have those transactions set aside. 4. Conclusion By far and away the most effective strategy to avoid claims being made is to look carefully at the ownership of your assets and how these might be passed to your preferred beneficiaries in a way that the assets do not become part of your estate. This strategy, coupled with ensuring that you obtain proper legal advice in relation to the drafting of your Will and reasonably dealing with any possible claim for provision by your family members will give you the best possible outcome. There is no guarantee that these strategies will completely stop a claim being made by family members. However, a carefully crafted strategy to avoid claims with the correct legal advice can save you and your family a lot of anxiety and ultimately, legal costs. A small investment now may avoid a much larger expense, both financially and emotionally, to your estate and your family later on.

Some common myths about contesting Wills and practical advice for those making their Will to avoid claims against their estate It is a common assumption made by most people that if they have a legally drafted Will, it cannot be contested by family members. Nothing could be further from the truth. In all states and territories in Australia, there is similar legislation which allows certain family members who are listed as eligible applicants who can bring a claim against the estate if they can establish that they have not been properly provided for in the deceased person’s estate. The ingredients for establishing such a claim vary from case to case but basically you need to establish that you qualify as an eligible applicant under the law, that you have financial needs and that the deceased person should have made further provision for you in their estate. The applicant’s financial and material circumstances, as well as the nature of her/his relationship with the deceased, the financial and material circumstances of any competing claimant/s and the moral obligation the deceased owed to the parties involved in the dispute are relevant for the Court’s determination. The test is what a reasonably minded testator would have done in all of the circumstances. Claims often come about because certain relatives or family members are not properly provided for in someone’s Will, or at all. In many cases the “black sheep” of the family who is a social misfit and receives a government pension and has little or no relationship with the family generally is usually the most qualified person to bring a claim under the legislation! As unfair as this may seem, and in many cases where a parent or parents choose to not make provision for such a child, more often than not the person effectively cut out of the will have a very strong claim against the estate. Will One of the common myths of people making their Will is that if they leave a small sum of money to an errant child that this will be sufficient to discourage or prevent a claim being made. Once again, nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, it will most likely have the effect of angering the person you wish to disinherit which may encourage that person to bring a claim on your estate. The true test is whether you have made reasonable provision for the child or family member concerned taking into account all circumstances of the family dynamics, the estate assets and the individual circumstances of the person making the claim. So how can you avoid a claim being made against your estate? Here are a few strategies that may save you a lot of anxiety, time and ultimately money within your estate after you pass away:1.Structure your assets so they are not part of your estate There are various things that you can do with the ownership of your assets in order to ensure that they pass on to the family members that you want them to. For example, if you hold a property as joint tenants with someone, after you die your share passes to the surviving joint tenant without reference to your Will. Leaving aside issues of notional estate in the State of New South Wales, this can be a very effective way to ensure that your main asset passes to the family member that you wish to receive the property. A great example is where a couple who are on their second marriage buy a property together as joint tenants. When one of them dies, the half share will pass to the surviving joint tenant without reference to the Will or the estate (except in NSW). Similarly, joint bank accounts can be a strategy to avoid a claim against the estate. Under the law of joint bank account survivorship, the general rule of thumb is that the benefit or ownership of the joint bank account passes to the surviving joint account owner upon death, without reference to the Will or the estate. You can also ensure that superannuation and life assurance cover is paid to specific beneficiaries by completing “binding nominations” for payment of the proceeds of those policies to the beneficiaries that you wish to receive those payments. Once again, issues of notional estate in the State of NSW can intervene to cause issues with this strategy. 2. Get proper advice in relation to drafting

Beware of cowboy skin doctors on the South Coast

IN THE past ten years there have been a number of rogue skin clinics outlawed that had abused medicare and also a form light treatment called photodynamic therapy or PDT, mostly for a quick buck. More recently some of these clinics have risen again with the same dubious practices. Dr Glen Parker, Principal Doctor at the Tweed Skin Cancer Clinic has seen a number of patients who have been to these clinics and come for a second opinion. Most patients that I have seen who have attended these clinics were only given one option upfront for treatment for their spots, which is photodynamic therapy or PDT. They were not given other mainstay first line treatment options such as cryotherapy or creams, so essentially they were forced into having a very expensive treatment. PDT was introduced ten years ago but went out of favour due to the side effects and loss of pigment that occurred when used over large areas. PDT treatment was also hijacked by rogue clinics as a money maker to boost their income even if it wasnt the best treatment for patients at the time. I have

seen patients develop more skin cancer in areas where they have had PDT due to the loss of pigment it caused. Any treatment that causes loss of pigment can increase this risk, and in this high UV climate this is quite dangerous. Some of these patients have come in sun burned after they were told to apply the PDT cream and go out in the sun for 2 hours. Even after reapplying sunscreen the reality is that there is still a risk of sun burn if you are having direct sun exposure for that long. I am shocked at some of the recommendations that have been made at these clinics. Some patients have been told that they will cut out their skin cancer in the clinic, then send them home with an open wound only to return in a few days to have it sewn up. This was planned for one such female in her 50s who had a severe recurrent aggressive form of basal cell carcinoma on her ear. She already had surgery on this before and it was significantly smaller than her other ear, if she had done this she would have lost her ear. She has since had a course of radiation. One elderly female was informed that she had to have her face cut from her left cheek right through her lip and it would leave a severe scar, and if she didn’t it would “go to your brain and kill you”, that was what the Doctor had told her. I performed another biopsy on the same area and there was no skin cancer there at all. These patients also told me that the Doctor had called them and tried to bully them to come back in after they had not returned, and they were also told that because the doctor had found the skin cancer they were

legally the only ones who were allowed to treat it. This is not true. Many patients I have seen for a second opinion have had skin cancers and melanomas missed at these clinics. They told me that they were only interested in their sales pitch for PDT rather than checking them thoroughly. I have found melanomas in areas where they gave them PDT which they had obviously missed, which is very concerning. This can mask the appearance of the melanoma making it even more difficult to find. One such female in her 50s had a rare pink melanoma that had been totally missed, and PDT given on the area. Luckily we found it and she has had to have graft surgery. These clinics also advertise that the Doctors who work there have done various GP skin cancer certificates. Patients should be aware that this is no guarantee that they are seeing an expert with the correct surgical training and many years of experience required to find and treat skin cancer and melanoma correctly. This work is not simply a matter of jumping in and having a go, using trial and error with patients as your guinea pigs. This is a highly skilled field of medicine. In twenty years of practising and training other Doctors, I have seen very few who develop the high level of skill to be able to find all skin cancers and melanomas and properly treat them every time. I have seen patients come in from every skin clinic that has come and gone in this area and there are many bad stories, whether they had things removed that shouldnt have

been, or skin cancers missed, or surgery gone wrong, or they didn’t get it all and left it, or they werent referred on. Those are that risks you take with inexperience. This is an art form and not everyone is an artist. Patients in general may be quite confused or in the dark about what is best to treat their sun spots and sun damage. In my 20 years experience I can offer the following overview. Any non surgical treatment medical or natural, cryotherapy or cream or light, is essentially causing a burning or reaction in the skin which invariably causes some degree of loss of pigment. Loss of pigment in this high UV climate is quite dangerous and can lead to further sun damage and more skin cancer. In my clinics I have tried all forms of treatment over the years, but the one I use mostly with consistent success is cryosculpture. This is a totally different technique and instrument to the regular “freezing” done by your GP. This technique is not that painful or invasive, is used quite shallowly, it doesnt remove pigment from your skin leaving white spots or halo scars on your face, and the downtime is only 5 days. If you stay with your regular check ups, over time your skin tone will even out, your skin health will be better and more robust, as long as you are using sunscreen as your daily moisturiser in between. You will also get much less sun spots and skin cancers. This is the purpose of regular skin checks, not to become more spotty and scarred with each visit. Cryosculpture is a form of artistic sculpture, hence the name. It is not used widely in this Country, more so in the USA.

Headache Awareness Week!!

THERE ARE different types of headaches and it is possible to have more than one type of headache at the same time. Some common types of headaches include:

Family-friendly surgery with kid’s corner.

Tension headache – usually affects both sides of the head and may feel like a tight band across the forehead, Sinus headache – can make your forehead feel tender due to blocked sinuses (the spaces between the bones of your face), Migraine headache – a severe headache that usually throbs. It often affects only one side of the head with the pain centred over one eye, the temple or back of the head. You may also get other symptoms like nausea, vomiting and sensitivity to light, noise and smell. Some people get an aura (e.g. flashing lights, blurred vision, tingling or numbness) up to an hour before the pain starts. A migraine may last from 4 to 72 hours. Migraines affect about 1 in 4 women and about 1 in 12 men and commonly start in childhood or as a young adult. There are many causes or triggers for headaches including lack of food, eye strain, stress, too much alcohol, high blood pressure, and caffeine withdrawal. Migraines can also be triggered by certain foods such as cured meats (e.g. ham), chocolate, caffeine, nuts, pickled foods, monosodium glutamate (MSG), aged cheese, yogurt, onions, brown vinegar, and chicken livers. However, different things trigger migraines in different people. Most headaches are harmless and respond to simple treatment measures. Many people treat themselves with simple painkillers

such as paracetamol, drinking extra water, having a rest, or simply by waiting for the headache to go away. However, occasionally a headache can be a symptom of a serious illness. Doctors and pharmacists can help find the cause of a headache and advise you on treatment options. To treat a migraine, you may need specific pain-relief medicines. Simple painkillers such as paracetamol and ibuprofen can be effective. If these medicines don’t help, your doctor can prescribe special migraine medicine for treatment and prevention. Migraines may improve with rest, sleep, a dark and quiet environment and drinking water. There are some simple ways of reducing the number of headaches such as managing your stress levels, eating a balanced regular diet, exercising regularly, drinking plenty of water and getting plenty of sleep. Keeping a food and pain diary can be helpful for working out which foods, if any, trigger your migraines. If you know what triggers your headache, you may be able to avoid it. Your local pharmacy can help too. Pharmacists are medicines experts. If you have a headache that has lasted for a long time or you don’t regularly get headaches, speak to your pharmacist or doctor.

Current Tweed Shire Councillor Warren Polglase

Local teacher Michael MacNamara

Council candidate Greg Reid

WHILE MANY NSW Council regions are recovering from their elections last weekend, it’s just warming up on the Tweed with the campaign trail kicking into gear once more this week. Candidates were again invited back to The Weekly’s Council Election pages with the question this week: What do you believe are some of the biggest issues facing the Tweed Shire during the next council term? And, further to this, how do you believe the shire can best act to address these issue(s)? As a growth Council, we have to make the right decisions about how we manage population demand in a way that does not compromise those things that we treasure about our environment and lifestyle. Water security, infrastructure, jobs and human services that support a growing community will be the big issues for the new Council. We have the tools that can attract new opportunities in our tourism, hospitality, retail, manufacturing and agricultural sectors. However, we need a Council with vision and capacity to get the balance right for current and future Tweed residents. I have worked hard to seek consensus and the middle ground in a Council that has been racked by division and self-interest. Two of our current Councillors refuse to sit with their colleagues, collaboratively and constructively. You don’t treat the community that way, they want to see the Councillors working together for their benefit and the good of our beautiful Shire. This will be the pathway to a brighter future for the Tweed We need to drastically improve public transport throughout the Tweed Shire creating a seamless transport network with our neighbouring regions. An upgraded public transport network will not only benefit the shire’s aging population but will also boost the tourist economy throughout the region. We have two International airports less than two hours away and we need to make it easy for those tourists to commute throughout the Tweed Valley. I would like to see an enhanced network of busses linked together with existing light rail and rail facilities which use one simple payment form extending across South East Queensland through the Tweed Shire and on to northern NSW. The Gold Coast Commonwealth games are coming and we should prepare now to guarantee a reliable transport service. Council must also reduce the fees and red tape associated with Small Business. I would like Council to create a Small business department to foster start-up small businesses in the Shire. Encouraging small business leads to more jobs and sustainable growth. The big issues don’t change much from election to election – environment, Koala’s, community consultation, supporting business, infrastructure, transport, roads, transport, rates, rubbish, water security, fiscal responsibility. They are all vital for the next term. All candidates have a vision but, without a strategy and the skills to implement it; it will remain a wellintentioned motherhood statement. Councils can’t afford to think and act like councils any more. They must think and act like a business and return dividends to shareholders – the ratepayers. And that starts at the top - if a board underperforms then heads roll. The Shire is stagnating and Tweed’s ‘board’ has significantly underperformed. The Council itself is very well run but the current crop of councillors, with one or two exceptions, are unprofessional and lack the experience to deliver the results the ratepayers deserve. On the 29th October we need a Councillor clean-up and

to elect a group of councillors who: - understand the dreams and aspirations of our families - listen to the community and work collaboratively to support them - are a loud, unified voice to the State and Federal Governments to get the funding and support we need - have the maturity, professionalism and leadership skills to deliver results.

TWEED ROADS The first major issue is our core assets – Roads The challenges are how do we do this. Additional Funding plus operational savings within the organisation to free up surplus funds for our road maintenance programmes or do we let the potholes get bigger and let the roads deteriorate. SMALL BUSINESS INITIATIVES The second issue for elected members is initiatives for small business to create opportunities in Tweed Shire. Will the elected body consider forgoing a proportion of small business contributions -which is part of the business set up costs – to assist small business to create community based employment initiatives. Council does not create opportunities but can assist opportunities to be created by offering initiatives. AFFORDABLE RATES Streamline Council Operations focusing on 2-3 per cent cost savings and maintain a rate increase capped at CPI, this can be achieved and would free up funds to support what I consider to be the two major issues in Tweed Shire. I did not support the wastage of ratepayers money on purchasing a Murwillumbah property of approx. $300,000. Are we landlords or do we want to deliver outcomes of maintaining Tweed Shire roads. There are ways that council can deliver these outcomes but at the same time will require tough decisions by the elected body to deliver on these essential issues that face Tweed Shire. The Tweed Shire needs a team that will work together to drive the local economy to create jobs, protect the environment and support the community. Tweed Labor has an Action Plan that will tackle these important issues. We will work together to drive local job creation, such as supporting the rail trail, protect our environment and tourism sector by keeping the Tweed Shire Gas-Field free and support the area through appropriate development which meets community expectations. Working hard for Tweed residents will ensure they have a council that is focused on finding common ground so we can deliver for the community. We will continue to listen and talk with locals and community organisations about our positive plan for the Tweed Shire. The only way to get our shire working effectively and address the issues that face us is by supporting Labor’s Action Plan and voting Labor on 29 October 2016.

Council needs to focus its finite financial resources raised through rates on providing the basics of water, waste and roads. The community needs to be supported by sensible development of infrastructure, housing and services. Some of these can be assisted by grants from the State and Federal Government. Other services and opportunities can be provided by business investment and development. For anything to be sustainable it must qualify in four parameters of being financially viable, legal, social acceptable and supportive of the environment; none stand in isolation. So when some Councillors just argue for a single issue, or a single parameter this is not sustainability as no issue can exist in isolation. Councillors are challenged to think and understand the broader impacts of their decision making, rather than a narrow agenda. This can be achieved by selfeducation and listening to the many groups of residents and ratepayers that must be represented. Therefore the challenges for Councillors and Council are to be actively listen to all stakeholders with proper informed community consultation, funding of services through Council own operations, grant funding and private investment and most importantly fixing the pot holes, clearing the waste and generating water security.

Your candidates for the October 29 Council Election

Tweed Shire Council Elections 2016

Few Councils have had a Mayor gaoled and a Council sacked, both relating to improper dealings around property development. The biggest issue in the Tweed is Integrity. If we can’t trust the people elected to make decisions on our behalf then we’re in a bad place. Tweed Shire has “been there”.

I am committed to making sure we don’t go back. I will act with Independence and Integrity as a Councillor as I have in my professional life and community activities, working collaboratively with other Councillors. Recent proposals like “Bouncing Castles” at Jack Evans Boat Harbour and the Instrument Landing System (ILS) at Gold Coast Airport highlight the importance of remaining vigilant and for Council to represent the community. Linked to development is adequate water supplies. Rather than trying to justify a dam on Byrrill Creek based on a 30year old business plan we should have a full independent investigation to identify the best options for ensuring our water supply needs. Some of the most important issues affecting the Tweed Shire in the immediate future are: the coming online of major developments such as Kings Forest and the strategic planning needed to make sure existing residents are not footing the bill for the infrastructure needed for these new areas. One of the biggest planning challenges is how to balance the provision of infrastructure and the protection of the environment with increasing population. The need to foster local employment opportunities that support our communities and that protect the environment we all want to live in is another big issue. We are perfectly placed to maximise niche tourism such as cycling, surfing, eco tourism, local food tourism, cultural tourism and art trails. We also need to support and strengthen our farmers and help them overcome the challenges they face by valuing and protecting our local food production.

The provision of local health services is one of the biggest concerns in our Shire and Council needs to be a strong advocate for the community to make sure people are able to access the services they need. The extension of the runway at the Gold Coast airport also has a huge potential to affect Tweed residents and the community needs strong advocacy when dealing with QLD based decision makers. If you are planning to vote as you did last time then you must expect more of the same: rising rates, eroding services and decision making frozen by personal conflicts. The world is changing rapidly in technology, economic patterns and climate. Simply continuing with past policies will just make the Tweed a victim of change. Young people will continue to leave seeking work. Services will decline under pressure from an aging population. Infrastructure will become dated or too difficult to maintain. All the while, costs will continue to rise. I am standing as part of a team that aims to change the focus of Council from petty administration to a positive advocate for the community. That means using planning and innovation to put downward pressure on rates. It means pursuing better access to health services and social supports. It means building on our strengths to encourage emerging industries in food production, the arts and renewable energy.

75417

Up until 2012, Council had been granted seven straight years of above the allowable limit rate rises. This is more than any other council has been allowed in recent memory. The pain was felt by all ratepayers. Regular rate rises are still occurring year after year. Where’s this windfall gone? I know where some of it has gone – the elaborate, expensive and seriously compromised Kingscliff Locality Plan. A lot of this money has been diverted to sell something that none of us wanted - taller buildings. Being trained and well paid doesn’t give the planners the right to assume that they know what’s best for us. It doesn’t give them the right to ignore the survey of 1250 people that showed 97 per cent support for the three storey height limit. It doesn’t give them the right to ignore the 12,000 people who have signed the petition to get back our original three storey limit. Using our money to shore up their desired outcome (not ours) is a predictable bureaucratic response to a revenue windfall. I hope the newly elected Council will take a hard look at bureaucratic spending.

Give bees a chance to thrive, says local apiarist LOCAL BEE keeper Vic Medcalf is calling on fellow apiarists to help take up an excessive number of local bee hives, after he continues to take calls to collect bee swarms. Mr Medcalf is a well-known apiarist in the Tweed Valley and has for years campaigned to help bees continue their vital work across the shire. “If any bee keepers are interested in getting in contact or starting a bee hive, it would be great to hear from them,” he said. “Bee hives are easy to maintain and the benefits are numerous in both supplying honey and helping our native bees.” To find out more about bees phone Mr Medcalf on (02) 6677 9226.

Local Real Estate 33

Real Estate “Not another real estate agent”, Anne’s your Agent of the Week I AM not just another real estate agent… I’m Anne Besgrove. Married with a growing family, living on the land and previously owning two businesses in our community. Our family is now 5th generation locals and I attended Murwillumbah High School. Growing up in the Tweed Valley has given me an extensive knowledge of our beautiful valley. I am genuinely interested in my clients as people above just being “buyers and Sellers.” As a result of my ability to work with people I have forged long term relationships with both my new and old property owners. This is reflected in repeat and referred business. I believe my role as an agent is to provide “Good Old Customer Service” and to treat my people as I would expect to be treated. I pride myself on my integrity, being trustworthy, honest and professional. As my logo says“Matching People to Properties” and I am fortunate in my work to have the opportunity to pass on my properties to new families to enjoy and make their home. Read a few words from Anne’s clients: “We found Anne to be remarkably responsive to any of our requests in the purchase of the property. As we were long distance purchasers. Anne took full control of tradesman that we required before and after the purchase of the property. Because of her knowledge in residential real estate we would highly recommend to

anyone who is purchasing or selling property to take in consideration Anne Besgrove of First National Real estate Murwillumbah.” Terry & Deb “Anne Besgrove from First National Real Estate Murwillumbah was great from start to finish with the job she did for us in selling our rural property. Anne has excellent knowledge of rural properties, country living and the real estate market place. Anne puts maximum time and effort into dealing one on one with potential purchasers and remains in good communication with all parties during all phases of the sales process, including following up to ensure timely and accurate settlement. Anne is passionate about her job and strives for the best possible outcome for both sellers and purchasers. Anne has an effusive personality and a kindhearted disposition, she is friendly and energetic! I have no hesitation in recommending Anne and would definitely use her services if I ever need a Real Estate agent again.” Lydia “From the moment we had first contact with Anne, the times we revisited the property we bought, and even after for last minute questions, Anne has dealt with each and every enquiry with honesty and punctuality. Anne’s market knowledge and specific property knowledge was far above any other real estate agent from other companies we were dealing with at the time. Anne always conducted herself in a professional, trustworthy and

friendly manner and it was a pleasure to meet her and have her sell us our new home. My opinions of real estate agents is forever changed! Thank you Anne!” Erika and John

Strong growth in Tweed property sales Record numbers of new units under construction

THE TWEED housing market continues to grow with the highest sales activity in regional Australia according to the latest market report released by CoreLogic. The CoreLogic Quarterly Regional Market Report for June 2016 analyses the housing market performance of some of the largest regional areas including: Newcastle and Lake Macquarie (NSW), Illawarra (NSW), Richmond-Tweed (NSW), Geelong (Vic), LatrobeGippsland (Vic), Gold Coast (Qld), Sunshine Coast (Qld), Townsville (Qld), Wide Bay (Qld), Cairns (Qld) and Bunbury (WA). CoreLogic observations have confirmed that most major regional areas are now seeing an increase in home values, demand for housing in the regions is picking up in the Richmond-Tweed region. Over the year to May 2016 there were 5,766 properties sold, which is 2 per cent higher than one year ago and 19 per cent above the five year average for the region.

Since 2014, the number of residential homes selling across the region has been trending upwards, while across all other regional markets analysed, sales activity was lower. The number of sales are still well below the peak seen in 2002, when over the 12 months ending May 8,398 properties were sold. Home values across the region have risen over the past year, with both houses and units increasing their median value by 8.4 per cent to $482,674 and $367,571 respectively. Across the rental market, rental rates for both houses (+4.8 per cent) and units (+5.6 per cent) have risen over the year. The rise in rents have not increased at the same rate as home values and thus rental yields have fallen slightly. The median rent across the region is $440 for houses and $380 for units. To the north Queensland’s two major lifestyle markets of the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast were the strongest performing regions across the state over the period, with both house and unit values rising. Transaction activity,

however, was mixed, with sales volumes across the Gold Coast remaining steady over the year, but well above the five year average and Sunshine Coast volumes falling over the 12 month period. Townsville, Wide Bay and Cairns were weaker performers over the year with median values remaining relatively flat, or falling. CoreLogic research analyst Cameron Kusher said, “Our latest data points to an increase of value growth in regional markets, particularly those which are located adjacent to capital cities. As people are priced out of certain capital cities, buyers now appear to be looking to these adjacent regions.” “Home owners in Sydney and Melbourne have seen a substantial rise in housing equity over recent years. Subsequently we are seeing some evidence that these buyers are starting to look for holiday and investment properties in certain regional markets which is also providing an impetus for some of the value growth we are currently seeing.”

A RECORD-HIGH number of units currently under construction nationwide, is affecting the capital growth performance of units in certain capital cities and it is anticipated that capital growth will continue to slow. According to the CoreLogic Home Value Index, over the 12 months to August 2016, combined capital city house values have increased by 7.2 per compared to a 5.5 per cent rise in unit values. The rate of annual growth for units has been only slightly lower than that of houses across the combined capital cities, while across individual cities the trends vary significantly. Hobart and Darwin are the only two capital cities in which the change in unit values over the past year has been greater than the change in house values. In Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Canberra, the change in unit values over the past year has been less than half that of houses. With Melbourne and Brisbane experiencing historic high levels of new unit construction and substantial increases in unit stock expected over the coming years, it is reasonable to anticipate that the gap between the annual change in house and unit value will persist and potentially grow larger. The most recent data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) showed that nationally there were 152,449 units under construction at the end of the March 2016 with an additional 41,548 units approved for construction to July 2016, many of which would have already commenced construction. The report from CoreLogic reads, “The demand for inner-city housing, particularly

units, has increased significantly over recent years the heightened level of unit construction has the potential to create problems for the housing market. “While an increase in housing supply is important, much of the new unit stock to-date has been targeted at an investor market. “From an investors perspective units offer higher yields and lower prices than houses however, in many cities recent capital growth has underperformed and the rental market is the weakest it has been in more than two decades. “With additional unit stock under construction, there is the potential as this stock enters the market the rental market will become even more depressed. “Over the coming years we anticipate that the performance of houses and units could diverge even further. “While units offer a much more affordable purchase price than houses, as the supply of units relative to houses increases, we would expect demand for detached houses to hold-up much better than demand for units. “Especially considering much of the new unit stock has to-date been one or two bedrooms, of a similar internal size and design and very much targeted at a similar market segment. “For those people who are looking to purchase a unit at a time when supply levels are moving through record highs, projects which are differentiated from the broader market, based on their location, design, owner mix or quality of the developer may provide some safe haven from the weaker unit market conditions.”

The Queen asks the help of Celina (Anne Westmorland) the Royal Sorcerer to make sure that the Princess who is chosen, is a true Princess in every way.

Zen & The Art of Dying

75405

It is a very intriguing title: how can we die graciously? Or better, how can our lives be celebrated graciously and in an intimate, informal manner by the ones who loved us? These are questions that the film Zen & The Art Of Dying tries to address through the experience and wisdom of Zenith Virago, a popular and charismatic celebrant who lives in the Northern Rivers of NSW and for the last twenty years has been challenging traditionally held assumptions about death and dying. Coming from the UK as a young mother to discover her identity as a lesbian and a feminist and selfdescribed death-walker in Australia, Zenith has become a very sought-after marriage celebrant and is also the co-founder of the Natural Death Care Centre, an organization that provides do-it-yourself funeral alternatives to the residents of NSW’s North Coast. Her mission is to facilitate people to celebrate the most crucial events of their life without giving in to commercial considerations, bureaucracy and cultural taboos while instead reclaiming and reimagining community and family-oriented death care traditions long forgotten in our society. The film, winner of the 2015 Byron Bay International Film Festival, is a documentary about Zenith but also about how to put a bit of Zen in the most important moments of everyone’s life.

Trombone Kellie and the Muddy Roaders Trombone Kellie and the Muddy Roaders have a well deserved reputation for not only their skills as musicians but also the gift of being truly entertaining and fully engaging with their audience.

Beatles mania returns for Ron Howard’s new documentary By Jeffery Black

RON HOWARD’S new film Eight Days A Week – The Touring Year’s opens in cinemas globally on September 16 and I was given the opportunity to see the film recently at a preview screening. With access to The Beatles’ management company, Apple Corps archive of film, photos, and newly-discovered amateur fan footage, Howard and his team have assembled an attractive narrative of the well-worn path that is The Beatles early career. Former-Beatles Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr appear in recently shot interviews, along with archival 70s US television interviews with John Lennon, and George Harrison grabs from Anthology in the 90s. Another observer to the madness that was their 1965 US Tour was Florida DJ Larry Kane who was asked to join the tour and report from within the inner sanctum. His insights and perspectives into what was happening in the world at the time gave some much needed background to this new documentary. Other personalities contributed and provided on-screen context – with the most powerful – Afro-American historian Kitty Oliver and her first social contact with the white population while attending a concert in Jacksonville, Florida. Why so powerful – because The Beatles wrote into their touring contracts that they would not play to segregated audiences, and Oliver along with other fans, black and white, swayed to the music together. As Ringo

said: “They were just people”. And this is where this documentary shines as Howard examines the issues that The Beatles believed in and fought hard to defend. From the awkward apology from John Lennon on his ‘The Beatles are bigger than Christ’ comments, offending the sanctity of The Budokan in Japan by playing rock and roll music in a temple, and snubbing the Marcos family in The Philippines – and as history has shown them right, and the inability of police and security to cope with mass hysteria and venue craziness of what we call today stadium rock. He does skirt around a few issues – the furore over the MBE presentations, John’s very outspoken opposition to US involvement in Vietnam, drugs and sex. By 1966, The Beatles became bored with touring and despite their creative output in the studio they had to reconcile that with playing oldies like Act Naturally, Twist and Shout on stage. They knew the end was coming, so they played the 1966 concerts largely in auto-pilot and to dwindling audiences – and on August 29, 1966, at Candlestick Park, San Francisco they took cameras and a tape-recorder on stage to document what they knew would be their last ever concert. The pivotal film moment comes during a press conference in Hamburg, Germany in 1966 when an unnamed reporter asks The Beatles why they have become so ‘horrid and snobby’. Paul McCartney – usually the diplomatic Beatle, lets fly – and from there on appearing before the public lost its appeal. Who’ll want to see it? I’d say just about every baby

boomer should be que-ing for a ticket. But take the kids and the grandkids because what The Beatles did in those years was to write the rock and roll touring manual, and Eight Days A Week – The Touring Years begins at page one. Editor’s note: The author of this article, Jeffery Black, is considered one of Australia’s foremost Beatles experts. Mr Black is a broadcaster and researcher responsible for cataloguing the National Film and Sound Archives Beatles holdings and Curator of the 50th Anniversary Beatles Exhibition Australian Tour for the Queensland Museum.

Change the world by changing your habits, says Youth Frontier students AN INNOVATIVE program aimed at inspiring local students by matching them with volunteer mentors is working wonders at Murwillumbah High School. YWCA Youth Frontiers Mentoring Program selected fifteen year eight and nine students at Murwillumbah High School who are now leading the way with ‘making a difference’ in their community. Each pair have selected an important issue and have developed projects to create positive change in the community ranging from a fun run to raise awareness around domestic violence; to food waste and composting workshops; to making a film about bullying; to creating a cooking program that brings together the elder and youth generations; to a bike day to inspire kids to leave their screens; to a community arts project supporting girls to fulfil their potential. Share project coordinator and passionate local youth worker Marlena Basser visited The Weekly to present some of the outstanding results achieve by the students. “The student/ mentor teams have been working together since May and I am blown away by what they have achieved in such a short time,” she said. “Their projects are meaningful, innovative, and engage the wider community - these kids are not the leaders of tomorrow, they’re leaders now.” In order for these projects to have the level of impact, the students would like, they are calling on the community to get behind their initiatives. The Tweed Valley Weekly will be supporting them by focussing on one or two of the projects each week and letting the community know how they can get involved. This week we’re talking about “Love Food Hate Waste” a year 9 student Edward Hubbard and year 8 student Kika Brace are passionate about the environment. “They love food but are shocked at how much of it goes to waste,” Mrs Basser said. “$2.5 billion worth of food is wasted every year in NSW alone” said Edward one of the students, who believes we can change if we start with changing our habits.

From 11am – 1pm N.E.WASTE are providing a free session in which their chef, Daniel Lange, will make and then feed you delicious, nutritious, healthy meals as well as teach you practical ways to save more than $1,000 per year just by planning your meals and storing food correctly. Then local composting expert Hamish Brace will show you how to set up your own basic comporting system at home. The workshop will finish by 2pm. To book your place, simply phone the Murwillumbah High school office on (02) 6672 1566.

Together with their mentors Gillian Woodward and Tony Thomson they have taken on the mission to turn Murwillumbah High into a model school when it comes to reducing food waste and encouraging the wider community to do the same. “We have already presented a film ‘Just Eat It’ to the school community to raise awareness amongst students” shared mentor Gillian Woodward,” he said. “Our next event is a public workshop this Saturday at Murwillumbah High School.”

Shaun Grace found following lengthy search Light aircraft calls for emergency landing

KINGSCLIFF POLICE released a statement on Sunday, September 11, that said Shaun Grace, who had been reported missing from Hastings Point several weeks ago, had been located safe and well on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland. Shaun Grace, 47, was last seen at Hastings Point Headland more than three weeks ago. He

is well-known to those in the area and had been living out of his car for the last few months. Police said Mr Grace was now with family and is receiving ongoing treatment for a medical issue. Tweed/Byron Local Area Command LAC wanted to “thank the community and local media for their assistance during the search for Mr Grace”.

GOLD COAST Airport can confirm that an emergency landing of a general aviation aircraft took place at approximately 10.20am this morning. The incident involved a Diamond DA 42 aircraft and both the runway and taxiway at Gold Coast Airport were closed for a short period of time as a result. Emergency services and airport safety personnel responded quickly to the scene. There were no injuries sustained

by the two people on board. The aircraft has now been cleared and both the runway and taxiway have now reopened. Gold Coast Airport is open and fully operational.

BY “RAIN”

Aries: Expect an emotional roller coaster this week building to the lunar eclipse Friday. It is best to not overload yourself at this time and keep things simple. While Friday may see drama in your life, a good friend may just step in to help. Taurus: You may find yourself half committing to a tricky relationship at this time not knowing if it is right or not. Try to step back and see if it is really what you want, and don’t rush anything or it could take an unexpected turn. Gemini: You could find yourself in a little bit of a tiff at home this week, and it certainly would be best to nip it in the butt right away or you could see it drawn out till Friday. This weekend sees an exciting encounter coming your way. Cancer: You might find yourself at loggerheads with someone at work this week, and it will help if you try to see things from their perspective also. This Friday can see the beginning of a trip that will take a very suprising twist which is very meaningful. Leo: Between now and Sept 21st you could feel the itch to make a major purchase. A house, a car, a vacation ticket... whatever it is it is best to wait until the 21st. Mercury retrograde sits in your financial sector making things ungrounded. Treat yourself to something smaller for now and play it safe. Virgo: You could find yourself in a conflict in the home this week, and a difficult compramise. It could be more worthwhile making a small sacrafice as a gesture of goodwill to put it behind you rather than letting the tension continue. Libra: While last week bought a pleasent suprise your way, this week could see some tricky situations unfold. You could find difficulty with a particular person which can be frustrating. Try to let go a bit, and see where things take you. This weekend will bring something positive your way. Scorpio: You could find yourself in a emotional vortex this week particularly with your social life. If there are unresolved issues you wish to tackle with someone, try some tact and gentleness. For the next couple of weeks starting romances can be trecherous. Saggitarius: You may find yourself being hit on both sides by both career and home issues this week. You might feel yourself getting frustrated at a certain person that could be holding you back from doing what needs to be done. It is a good time to address this issue, and share your side of the story. Capricorn: While most signs this week are facing major challenges, you can expect things for you to start falling into place Capricorn. With a rising confident energy in career and ambition zones and a strong ability to make the right decisions, you are ready to tackle a big challenge on Friday. Aquarius: You will find many new opportunities opening up for you this week particularly in travel and study. You may have to take care of your wallet, as spending away your savings could happen all too easily. You can expect a wonderful chance encounter over the weekend. Pisces: You may have to be very careful this week in regards to contracts or deals with other people. Both Mercury in retrograde and the lunar eclipse working against any commitments you can make, it is best to wait it out for a week. Use this time to go over details instead of signing in Ink.

Hot Water

Has Your Hot Water System Been Checked Lately? Ever Heard of a Sacrificial Anode?

A sacriﬁcial anode is a vital part of your water system, and having it inspected can be the difference between an efﬁciently working system and a costly replacement. Manufacturers recommend that you maintain the anode in your system in order to prevent damage from rust + corrosion. THE ANODE IN YOUR SYSTEM SHOULD NEVER BE ALLOWED TO CORRODE AWAY, WHATEVER TYPE OR BRAND OF SYSTEM YOU HAVE SOLAR, ELECTRIC, GAS OR HEAT PUMPS FOR A LIMITED TIME we will check your anode in the Tweed & Gold Coast area FREE OF CHARGE. “REMEMBER YOU CAN’T LOSE, NO ANODE REPLACEMENT NO CHARGE” Comes with a 5 year warranty ~ Make your Hot Water System last for 30 years!

Funeral Notice

KENNETH ANTHONY SMITH KENNY Tragically passed away on 3rd September 2016. Aged 58 years.

Much loved by Family and Friends. He will be sadly missed. Always in our hearts and memories Family and friends are warmly invited to Kenny’s funeral service to be held at his property, 385 Tomewin Road, Dungay on SATURDAY (17th September) at 1pm. A celebration of his life will follow at the Tumbulgum Tavern.

EVA ALICE WATERSON 14/01/1934 - 08/09/2016

With the most absolute love and respect we would like to acknowledge not only the passing of, but the life of Eve (as she preferred to be called). She peacefully went to her sleep at the age of 82 years. Eve was the most amazing Mother, Nanny and Great Nanny.

Bowls Notes CABARITA LADIES Sue Goode and Kate Potter the 2016 Club Pairs Champions, have returned from a tilt at the State Champion of Club Champions Pairs Championships conducted at Warilla. In a tournament that attracted 89 Pairs entries from within the State, Sue and Kate were the only contenders from north of Coffs harbour. Whilst the girls didn’t make it to the winners circle, they certainly gave their opposition a hard time in this knock out event. In their first round game against Engadine the girls were trailing their opposition. Sue, delivering great draw bowls, and brilliant skipping by Kate, resulted in the scores being even by the thirteenth end with the duo then taking control to close the game four shots up. Their second round game was on a synthetic pitch, a first time experience for both players, that created a difficult situation to overcome. Being 13-0 down at the completion of five ends didn’t deter the girls as they eventually got a grip of the conditions, fought back valiantly, and were unlucky to be beaten by a mere

with Judy Tuckey

One shot to be eliminated from the competition. A truly grand effort from the Cabarita ladies. This fine pair of bowlers, who also proved to be great ambassadors for their Club and the District at this event, are to be applauded for their enthusiasm and dedication to the game of bowls in their endeavours to broaden their experience and improve their bowling. Clubs around the District are finalising championships at present. Kingscliff Club Select Triples resulted in Wyn Butler (S), Coleen Smith (Sub for Pauline Freeman) and Joan Griffiths after a slow start, catch up and overtake Di James (S), Jane Bonnet and Shirley Whitehall to close the game with shots to spare. Novice Singles was another great final with Sandra Dean and Catherine Mangan in a challenge for supremacy. The girls matched each other earlier in the game until Dean broke away and took the game with a comfy margin. Cabarita concluded their Club Select Pairs with Joy Lake (S) and Robin Andrews up against Karen Cranwell (S) and Judy Martin with team Lake claiming victory with ample shots to spare. Condong B.C. has loosened the purse strings for a super

Weekend Carnival in a couple of weeks time with huge prize money up for grabs. Open Triples on Saturday 24 September and Open Pairs on Sunday 25 September promises two great days of bowls with rich rewards on offer. Don’t miss out. See you on the greens. Good bowling everyone.

Cabarita SLSC GREAT WORK and an enormous thank you to Keith Wilson who as usual was busying himself around the club last Tuesday when a member of the public alerted him to three people who found themselves caught in a rip at Cabarita Beach. The three were very lucky that the public and Keith were on hand to respond so quickly. Volunteer surf lifesavers will be resuming weekend patrols for the 2016/2017 from Saturday 24 September.

Who else has been following the results of the World Titles Rescue 2016? So many fantastic results from all our Aussie athletes who have been competing in Eindhoven and Noordwijkj and what great sporting idols they are for our younger athletes to follow. Maybe one day we will have a few Cabarita Beach SLSC athletes on the Australian Team. Something to aspire to - Rescue 2017 in Poland. Dig out those caps and pink rashies Nippers as this Sunday is the day we have all been waiting for. Yes

Nippers is back on! Parents don’t forget to get here at 8:45 for roll call before the first march down to the sand. If this glorious weather continues we will be in for a brilliant day. Members draw on Friday along with the famous “ Nippers BBQ”. The Boaties Sunday draw and raffles are a great way to end the week. I look forward to seeing you down at the club.

WAVE JUDGING under the World Surfing League has come under harsh criticism this week after Flores took to his Instagram to give his view on the recent judging controversies, saying the level of judging is “amateur” compared to how big the sport has become. “I’ve just Been saying it for the last 6 years & got fined a million of times for asking explanations,” Flores wrote. “Now everyone is finally waking up. The judging at the moment is way too amateur for How big the sport has become. “We have contracts, debts, sponsors, bonuses. We have dedicated everything to be at this level. We have all contributed to progressing our sport. Let’s improve so that the next generation doesn’t have to deal with this. “Don’t get me wrong, it must be tough to be a judge, it’s a hard job but If there isn’t good enough judging then there shouldn’t be that much money involved. Simple as that.” Surfing Life has reported that Flores has had a long history of clashes with ASP/WSL judges during his time on the tour.

“He was once fined and threatened to be booted from the tour when he stormed the judges tent during the J-Bay Open in 2014. While eventually he remained on the tour, he was suspended from competing at the tour’s next stop in Tahiti,” Surfing Life Magazine online reported. Surfing Life reported that the biggest outburst against the tour came from Bobby Martinez during the Quiksilver Pro in New York, where he went on a verbal tirade against the ASP QS and subsequently retired from professional surfing. According to the WSL rulebook, a surfer can be fined anywhere between $1000 to $50,000 for engaging in any conduct which could cause damage to the image of the sport of surfing. It goes on to further explain that “damage to the image of the sport of surfing” includes any act which casts the sport of surfing, or the WSL, in a negative light. The WSL has yet to comment on the recent social media outbursts by surfers. So far none of the surfers involved in this recent controversy have received a fine. The Hurley Pro and Swatch Women’s Pro are currently on hold with the next call taking place tomorrow morning.

BURRINGBAR’S WARATAH Falcons were victorious in the Division 1 Women’s Grand Final last Saturday when they faced their opponents Casuarina at the Tweed Border Hockey Fields in Murwillumbah.

Murwillumbah Mustangs release tribute fundraising shirt for “Cookie” THE MURWILLUMBAH Mustangs will play Cudgen Hornets in the NRRRL Grand Final on Sunday, September 18.

Sh ting Hoops WOMEN’S LEAGUE

For those who witnessed Monday night’s preliminary final between Steelers and Blazers experienced a cracker of a game. Blazers lead from the start and seemed to be well in control throughout. But maybe it was visions of a Grand Final, or the experience of Steelers that changed the game in the final 5 minutes of the 4th quarter. Steelers fought back from being 8 down to win a place in next Monday’s Grand Final against Young Guns with a 28-21 win. Kelley Mumford was the difference, using her skill and strength to put the Blazers ladies on the back foot. For Blazers, Jess Mattner played an outstanding game. Neither side deserved to lose. The Grand Final, a repeat of last Photo and words by: Josie Thacker seasons, has the makings of being a very

exciting one. Young Guns have lost one game in the past 2 seasons, and that came just a couple weeks ago against Steelers. It’s a difficult one to pick, but I think Young Guns will be too strong. The game starts at 6.30pm on Monday. The venue is the SDA Church Hall on Racecourse Road. Entry is free, so come and see the best of Murwillumbah’s Women League.

AUSSIE HOOPS (5-10 years)

Unfortunately, we are nearing the end of Aussie Hoops for term 3. Next Tuesday is the final session for this term. Apart from a few winter colds and flu’s, I’m sure everyone enjoyed themselves and have learned a little about basketball from Coaches Aaron and Sash. Aussie Hoops will continue in term 4 for a new 8 week program. It’s a mixture of

learning, playing and simply having a lot of fun. Details of how to register will be on our Murwillumbah Basketball Association FB page in the next week. Or you can contact me direct, 0448 883845 for any questions you may have. We are waiting on Basketball Australia to release costs for term 4, but we envisage it will still be $85 for new players (inc Ball, backpack and singlet) and $65 for returning Hoopers.

MEN’S LEAGUE

What looked on paper to be a tight contest proved not to be judging by the result in game 1. The Tropics are hitting their straps and looking the team to beat after a comfortable 20 point win over early competition leaders, Wolves. Leading at one stage in the 3rd quarter 27-7, credit to the young Wolves to fight back in the final quarter to go down 43-23. In the 2nd game, Oddballs came home strong in the 4th quarter to win 34-23 over Bushrangers after trailing for the first 2 quarters. Jefte Juarez and Tim Wetherall were strong around the key for the boys from the bush, but the old boys of the league are holding their own,

assisted by some young blood in Jordan Merota and Wayne Kajkmn.

YOUTH LEAGUE (11-16 years)

The final session before the school holiday break was held on Wednesday. Aaron and I are very proud of these kids and the steps each has taken over the past 10 weeks or so. Most had never played the game, and now they know positional play better than many senior players. Next term we are determined to get the Youth League competition up and running, commencing Wednesday 19 Otober at 4pm. If you are interested in playing, please contact me, 0448 88 3845, and we’ll get you into a suitable team. Each team will be mixed gender and ages and you will be playing for a title! But you won’t be alone as and we’ll be assisting with coaching tips along the way. We would love parents to join us to be team managers as well as coaches if you are keen. Aaron and I assume head team coaches. Until next week, happy ballin’
