Sell Subi
Oval for
cricket
By LLOYD GORMAN
Subiaco Oval should be sold
and demolished, and the cash
used to rebuild the WACA
ground, cricket bosses said
this week.

rainee doctors will probably develop a bit


of a sweaty bedside manner in the name
of a good cause.
A large group of pyjama-clad medical students plan to push a hospital bed from QEII
Medical Centre through Subiaco and into

Perth next Friday for Radio Lollipop.


They will push the bed from the medical
library in Monash Avenue, up Thomas Street,
down Rokeby Road and into Hay Street, where
they will make a pit stop at the home of Radio
Lollipop, Princess Margaret Hospital, before

heading up Murray Street into the city.


Organisers Portia Smallbone and Cassie
McCloskey from the charity arm of the WA
Medical Students Society said the bed push
would start at 8am and take about 3 hours
to complete.

Giant road trains


rumbling our way

The WACA would form part of


a two-stadium model for Perth,
with the new 60,000 stadium at
Burswood, across the river.
A WACA report published
on Thursday said a compelling
case existed for significant redevelopment of the WACA, which
would get state and federal government support and funding.
The Premier has been very
clear that any state government
consideration of funding for development of the WACA ground
would only be on the following
basis ... including co-location of
the WA Football Commission at
the WACA, enabling the state
government to demolish and
redevelop the current Subiaco
Domain Oval site, the report
said.
It cited a radio comment by
Premier Colin Barnett that
he didnt see any future for
Subiaco Oval and that he urged
the WAFL and the Football
Commission to get together
and co-locate at the WACA.
Subiaco councillor Julie
Matheson, a WACA member,
attended the launch of the
WACAs $100million plus plan.
I was shocked to see the WA
Football Commission form part
of the WACA redevelopment and

By LOUISA WALES
Massive outback-style road
trains are coming to the western suburbs.
The road trains, known as
B-triple multi-combination
trailers, would be allowed on
the controversial Perth Freight
Link, Main Roads WA confirmed
to the POST this week.
The three-trailer road trains
are already allowed access
to Curtin Avenue, which runs
through Leighton, Mosman Park
and Cottesloe.
Few now use this route, but
when thousands of vehicles are
funnelled into the North Wharf
container terminals from the
southern suburbs, leakage
will see them use Curtin Avenue
to get to the northern suburb
industrial areas, according to
transport experts.
The governments own modelling showed a likely 42% leakage from the proposed tolled
freight link on to surrounding
roads, Opposition Leader Mark
McGowan told a public forum in
Cottesloe this week.

Heres
where
we go

Trucks like this B-triple are allowed to rumble through the western suburbs.
Cottesloe council has voted
to lobby local MP and Premier
Colin Barnett to remove the current permission for restricted
heavy vehicles to use Curtin
Avenue.
By 2050 the freight link will
funnel 13,000 trucks per day
into East Fremantle and North
Fremantle on their way to
Fremantle port.
Mr Barnett has said truck
drivers may be confined to the
new link, but stopped short of
making a commitment (Link
will bring 13,000 trucks a day,
POST August 29).
B-triples can carry up to three
12m-long containers at a time,
can weigh up to 127 tonnes and
are up to 53.5m long.
These juggernauts are not
urban technologies, Curtin
University sustainability expert

Peter Newman said.


They are road trains that
belong outside cities.
They are used for long-haul
freight transport in outback
areas of WA and across the
Nullarbor, and are allowed only
on a limited number of roads
in the eastern outskirts of the
Perth metropolitan area.
In theory, they are permitted
on the southern end of Stirling
Highway to McCabe Street,
Mosman Park and along Curtin
Avenue and West Coast Highway
to the north.
The government has kept a
tight lid on the fact the road
trains are coming, but Main
Roads has confirmed they will
be allowed to travel along the

Bishop saw plans we


were told did not exist

Heritage upgrade
likened to theft

It was both heartening and puzzling to read


the excellent front-page report by Rhiannon
Shine and Linda Callaghan in last weeks POST
(Bishop, SAS developer at odds over security).
Heartening to know our federal Curtin MP,
Julie Bishop, is worried about the proposed
development of private houses at Seaward
Village. Puzzling because Ms Bishop said she
had seen the plans.
Local residents who had a meeting with
Defence Housing Australia (DHA) the day before Ms Bishop spoke to the POST were told as
they have been told many times by DHA there
were no plans, only concept drawings.
So far, the two drawings we have seen have
been very confusing and alarming.
We ask Ms Bishop to listen to the concerns
of her electorate and to keep asking questions
about this development.
Is she aware traffic from the development
will be directed across A-class reserve 19283,
which has been in place for 90 years?
That the intended use of local community
roads is not part of the improvement plan DHA
has presented to the WA Planning Commission?
That new defence houses are being designed
to sit back-to-back with new private houses,
increasing the nervousness of defence families?
That the improvement plan that has been put
to the WAPC does not show the impact of the
project on the local community, yet complies
with its guidelines?
Sadly, if this shocking development proceeds it
will only be after completion, when it is too late,
that the full extent of its harmful impact will be
felt by both civilian and defence communities.

heritage listing upgrade of 58A Leake Street

In a feeble defence of its action, shire
president Rachel Thomas said: Recent

has underlined the importance of identifying
and protecting the shires heritage.
In my view, the councils action in upgrading the heritage listing is like common theft.

Thank you Mr Trowell for pointing out that


indeed anyone can run for office (Why change
a top council?, Letters, POST, August 29).
Cambridge council may have developed
exciting new facilities for the area previously,
but the future vision is only as good as those
people who are guiding it.
It would appear that we now have some
council members who have developed tin
ears and are not representing our community
particularly well.
It is time for change, and it is exciting that
we have a group of new and capable people
wanting to get involved.
A vote for Keri Shannon and selected candidates on October 17 will ensure we have a
top council in the future that has the communitys interests ahead of its own.

Claremont residents and their

Rachel Siewert has been
rocking the Senate with recycled fashion.
The Greens Senator from WA
was inspired by style prompts
for 21 days and used op shop
clothes for her looks.
It was part of Restyle, which
is part of the Perth Fashion
Festival, Ms Siewert said.
Every day there was a
prompt and you had to find
something that went with it.
Prompts included black and
black, dapper, fringe, floral,
animal print and pencil skirt.
Some of the more challenging ones included neon and
fluoro, Ms Siewert said.
For those I wore a hot pink
dress and teamed it with a
jacket.

that cost the original owner
$1325.
Shop manager Kelly Morris
said a woman had donated four
pairs of Blahniks that hadnt
been worn.
Ms Siewert said op shops did
more than raise money for vulnerable people and families.

work often dont have the

The Housing Department said
the final number and mix of apartments would be determined once
development approval had been

Mofflin Avenue resident
Richard Smith wrote to Housing
Minister Colin Holt seeking
information about the departments plans.
In his reply, Mr Holt told Dr
Smith there would be approximately 25 apartments, but heights
and use had not been decided.
The main concern of residents
will be the height of the proposed
development, if it goes higher
than present housing, and the
additional number of cars in an

Armani scammer strikes again


A POST reader who remembered a report about an
Italian con-artist targeting
the western suburbs came
face-to-face with the man in
Subiaco this week.
Gabrielle Brooks father, a
West Leederville resident, was
approached by the con-man in
the Subiaco Coles carpark on
Wednesday and asked for his
credit card details.
The con-man gave his signature spiel about being lost en
route to the airport.
He said he needed to borrow a credit card to buy his

Dr Smith said.
Also, with no community facilities, there will be a lack of trees
and green vegetation, creating
a hot concrete jungle that is not
conducive to the mental health
of its occupants.
These impacts will not be
assessable until the design is
available for public comment.
This process has not been
set out.
A department spokesman said
representatives from Defence
Housing Australia and the
Housing Authority met Claremont
council to discuss the proposal
on July 30.
There is no date yet for the first
formal presentation to Claremont
council, the spokesman said.
Council CEO Stephen Goode
said a Claremont worker had
been given an informal briefing.
In July, the department said
DHA had expressed an interest
in about 30% of the homes.
The department said it intended to retain up to 10% for
social housing and up to 20% for
affordable housing.

Last month, the POST reported that a Cottesloe resident
had almost succumbed to the
same Armani scam.

the man his wife was in the
Brew Ha cafe and she had his

Gabrielle was also in the

about the scam in the POST.
She said her father had

The Department of
Commerce has reported a man

to be leather and made by the
designer Giorgio Armani.

4pm after a man came out of the

Wilson close to home
Subiaco council isnt the only
branch of government having
a run-in with Wilson Parking.
Since its small beginning in
the 1960s, Wilson has grown
into a multinational company
and Australias biggest carpark
operator.
Last month, the ACT govern-

ment passed emergency laws to


protect the identity of drivers
who overstayed in Wilson-run
carparks.
Wilson had taken the government to court to access the
names and addresses of the car
owners.
In June, the NT government
blocked a court order demanding it supply Wilson with the

names of drivers with outstanding fines at Royal Darwin


Hospital.
Two years before the dispute
hit the WA Supreme Court,
former POST reporter George
Williams was the first journalist
to report that Department of
Planning and Infrastructure
had given Wilson the details of
25,000 vehicle owners in 2008.

Beds go abroad
Shenton Park Rehab Hospital has
closed to make way for high-rise
development, but some of its beds
have found their way to a new life
in Somaliland in Africa.
The equipment was in very good
condition which meant we could
donate it for further use, said
RPH director of infrastructure and
facilities John Doherty in a hospital
newsletter.
He said 46 hospital beds that
were not needed in WA had been
donated to Australian Doctors for

Africa (ADFA).
The beds were shipped to
the Hargeisa Group Hospital in
Somaliland, a public hospital for
the less fortunate.
In a thank-you letter to RPH,
Rachael Maritanu from ADFA said:
The donation has been gratefully
received by the hospital and community.
The beds will be serviceable
for many years and are a major
improvement to a newly renovated
ward.

Stirling Highway Hub to get to the nub


A Nedlands marketing and communications firm has been given
the job of rebranding Subiaco CBD
as a top shopping and social spot.
Based in Stirling Highway, not
far from the rose garden, The Hub
was set up in 2005 and counts some
big mining companies, government
departments, charity and other

groups as clients.
The creative company will develop a name, logo and hashtag
for the Subiaco centre.
Subiaco CEO Ian Hill said he expected the work to be completed
within two months, to coincide
with the launch of the Markets on
Rokeby late next month.

Subi Black Dog riders


to hog US roads
A three-week motorcycle charity ride across America later
this month, which may include
Arnold Schwarzenegger, can
trace its beginning back to the
western suburbs.
The Black Dog Ride will see 65
Australians travel 4300km from
New York to Los Angeles from
September 13 to October 3 to
raise awareness of depression
and suicide prevention.
They hope to raise $1million
for Mental Health First Aid USA
which helps soldiers, police and
emergency workers cope with
stress and trauma.
The ride starts just after the 14th
anniversary of the September 11
attack on the World Trade Centre,
the aftermath of which involved
thousands of emergency workers.
Former Claremont resident
Steve Andrews and long-time
friend Subiaco real estate agent
Jack Michael organised the ride.
When Steve lost his mother
and his best friend lost his wife
to suicide, he rode solo across
Australia in 2009 to raise awareness of mental illness.
Since then the Black Dog Ride
has raised $2million in Australia.
Jack, who had been best man at
Steves wedding, also lost his wife
Anna to suicide.
I had no idea until my wife
took her own life that she had
even suffered from depression,
said Jack, who will be riding his
Harley Davidson on the US tour.
She kept it from all of us and
I only wish I had known anything
about it or the warning signs so
that I might have had a chance to

Jack said there was a high

suicide rate among military and


emergency service veterans who
had a high risk of developing
depression, anxiety and posttraumatic stress disorder.
It is estimated that there is a
suicide attempt every 13 minutes
in the US and 78% of all suicides
in US are by men, he said.
He said mental health firstaid training could help reduce
suicides.

Mercury research has a silver lining


St Hildas Year 11 student
Emily Price is heading to
Melbourne next week to
collect the inaugural Dr
Roneal Naidu Award for
research on environment,
food quality and human
health but its a trip she
didnt expect to be making.
As part of the community
service component for my
silver Duke of Edinburgh
Award, I decided to research
the different levels of mercury in fish and the health
impacts this can have on
consumers, Emily said.
She said her project was
inspired by Professor Ravi
Naidu, managing director of the Co-operative
Research Centre for
Contamination Assessment
and Remediation of the
Environment (CRC Care),
which is sponsoring the
award.
The research took a couple of weeks of going through
existing unprocessed data
and collating my findings,
Emily said.

I looked at mercury levels


in a variety of fish species
from a range of locations
across the world and was
really surprised at the potential health impact even
small levels of mercury can
have.
I have always assumed
that eating fish was a good
source of protein, and fish oil
is also promoted as having
incredible health benefits.
But there are people who
can be at risk with even low

Wilson Parking talks pinged


By LLOYD GORMAN

A planned meeting between


Subiaco council and Wilson Parking
last Tuesday was cancelled after a
group of councillors objected.
Some councillors threatened to
call an emergency council meeting to
order the CEO, Ian Hill, not to meet
the private carpark operator.
Mr Hill had said after last weeks
council meeting that he would meet
Wilson for a discussion.
At that council meeting, Wilson was

branded a corporate psychopath


and councillors voted for a report to
the September 22 council meeting
which could end an agreement with
the company.
Councillor Murray Rowe said in an
email on Monday morning this week:
I notice there is still intent to hold a
meeting with Wilsons prior to the report
on this situation coming to council.
There are a number of councillors
who do NOT agree with that proposal.
If you are intending to proceed
with a meeting then please take this as

EXOTIC IMPORTS

Ratepayers have asked the Supreme Court


to step into the Cambridge infill housing row.

BALI STYLE

The Coast Ward Ratepayers Association


lodged papers with the court last week asking
it to review the councils decision to change
the town planning scheme.
A hearing is due in just over a week.
Cambridges Amendment 31 to allow for
higher density and reduced setbacks on larger
blocks brought an outcry from many residents.
They raised $60,000 to fight it in court.
Protesting residents fear the Amendment,
now being considered by the WA Planning
Commission, will severely degrade the garden
suburb character of City Beach and Floreat.
Defenders of the plan say it will allow more
housing options with little impact.
Papers lodged with the court reveal the
grounds challenge the legality of votes on
Amendment 31 at two meeting of Cambridge
council, citing lack of quorums because of
alleged financial interest of mayor Simon
Withers, heritage issues, and allegedly misleading notices advertising the proposed changes.
Weve heard it all before and we do not
accept the claims, Mr Withers said. Our lawyers will respond and the court will decide.
Why were taking legal action: Letter page 36.

Paul makes his final Great Escape


By BRET CHRISTIAN
Paul Royle, whose death
in Nedlands last week at 101
left just one survivor of the
famous Great Escape, had no
idea why the Germans didnt
shoot him.

But the clue might be in his


name.
In 1944, 76 of a planned 250
prisoners tunnelled their
way out from Stalag Luft 111,
emerging near forest outside
the barbed wire, Paul told the
POST in 2009.
But a guard spotted number
77 and sounded the alarm.
By then, Paul and his escape
partner, Englishman Edgar
Humphreys, were half-an-hour
away, but 24 hours later as
they moved through a village
at midnight, the healthy young
men were spotted by home
guardsmen and recaptured.
Only three of the 76 had
made it to neutral countries
and freedom.
A furious Adolph Hitler
ordered that the re-captured
escapees be shot.
But Paul was among those
spared, with two other prisoners, one named Nelson and
the other Churchill, who were
not shot because the Gestapo
believed they had famous
relatives.
British man Dick Churchill
(94) is now the only surviving
member of the legendary
prison break.
Hitler was so enraged by the
escape that the Gestapo even
executed the German soldiers
who had failed to report the
theft of wire that the escaping

airmen had used when they
rigged lights in their tunnel
under Stalag Luft 111.
Prisoners had dug three
tunnels, nicknamed Tom, Dick
and Harry.
Paul had helped spread soil
dug from Harry by filling false
trouser legs with dirt, pulling a
piece of string to release a nail
securing the bottom of each,
then walking new dirt through
old in the exercise yard.
Prisoners used 4000 bed
boards to shore up the sand
inside the tunnels.
In the end it made the
beds pretty uncomfortable,
Paul said.
Tunnelling was an activity
common to most German prison
camps, but on his return to
the camp Paul was grilled by
Australian pilot and peace
time Sydney newspaper reporer Paul Brickhill, who wrote

the book, The Great Escape.


It was later made into the
movie starring American prisoners and a motorbike, neither
of which featured in the real
thing, Paul said.
His flying days had ended
early in the war, in May 1940,
when the light Blenheim
bomber he was piloting at almost zero feet was shot down
over northern France by much
faster German fighters.
After the war he returned to
Kalgoorlie and mining as an
engineer, married twice and
had five children and eight
grandchildren.
He retired to Dean Street,
Claremont, and then to
Hollywood Village in Nedlands.
He died in nearby Hollywood
Hospital after breaking his hip
in a fall.
A memorial service was held
on Wednesday.

Oliver said he spent more than a year training


for the swim, with two solo crossings to Rottnest,
long hours in the pool and three early morning
swims a week in the Swan River.
Even swimming the Channel doesnt prepare you for swimming the Channel, because
it changes so often, Oliver said.
The English Channel is 35km across, but
strong tides mean swimmers can be forced to
swim almost double this distance.
Oliver, a former Scotch College student, came
close to failing.
He set off on July 11 in perfect conditions,
but after 11 hours of swimming, just 6km from
his destination, the pilot of Olivers support
boat aborted the swim due to rough conditions.
Devastated, he decided he couldnt give up,
changed his flight home, and waited in the
UK for favourable weather so he could have
another shot.
After 10 days of waiting anxiously for conditions to improve, Oliver got a text from his
skipper to say the window of opportunity was
open he had three hours to prepare for a
night-time crossing.
He set off about 10pm on July 31 and arrived
in France at 11.19am on August 1.
Oliver said despite the swells, jellyfish and
cold water, he had never wanted to give up.
Strong tides off the coast of France delayed
the finish significantly, with the last 2km into
the beach taking a gruelling two hours, as a
three-knot tide tried to throw me back into the
ocean, he said.
Olivers coach, former Australian longdistance swimmer Shelley Taylor-Smith, said
he had shown extraordinary discipline and
dedication.
It takes a champion mindset to make the
toughest of decisions to return to the English
Channel less than two weeks after the swim
was aborted, she said.
Oliver was on the front page of the POST in
2010 when, despite a broken arm, he became
the youngest solo swimmer in the Rottnest
Channel Swim.
He said after accomplishing the Rottnest swim
so young, he had set his sights on the Channel.
With swimming its about whats next, he
said.

Kill Bill, says Claremont


The state governments City
of Perth Bill looks like it was
written on the back of a napkin, a Claremont councillor
said on Tuesday night.
The Bill was excoriated at
the meeting. Other descriptions
were beyond comprehension,
makes no sense, terribly drafted, and disenfranchising.

This is the worst Bill Ive


ever read, deputy mayor
Bruce Haynes said.
Claremont CEO Stephen
Goodes report recommended
the council express concern
about the Bill.
Mr Goode said unless good
explanations could be made
for Perth council taking parts

of Subiaco and Nedlands,


the Bill should be withdrawn
from Parliament.
The initial impetus from
this Bill is remembered
from the rhetoric around the
Robson Report, being that
Perth should enhance its

The Greens are encouraging


their members to stand in next
months council elections.
The party says there will be 11
candidates across the metropolitan area, who they will help with
training and support.
Greens (WA) co-convener Giz
Watson would not confirm in which
councils members would stand.
The POST has heard there
could be candidates in Subiaco,
Cambridge, Nedlands, Vincent
and perhaps Victoria Park.
Ms Watson said: We are asking members who are interested
in local government to consider
putting their hands up and well
assist in the process.
Ms Watson said some members
who were keen to put their hands
up had approached the party for
help.
She said it was the first time the
Greens had offered this level of
training and support, though the
party had run basic information
sessions about local government
for the past 10 years.
She said the party would not be
endorsing any candidates.
If one of our members is a
candidate in a local government

election they may seek the support


of their local or regional group,
but this is not a requirement,
Ms Watson said.
She said in past years some local
and regional Greens groups had
done some local fundraising to
help candidates with leaflets or
advertising.
It will be the same at this election, Ms Watson said.
The only additional funding is
to hold information and training
sessions, which are being funded
from our central budget.
Ms Watson said it was well
known the ALP and the Liberals
were active in encouraging their
members and supporters on to
councils.
Most recently the Liberals
made a concerted effort to gain
the numbers on local councils to
push through the governments
amalgamation agenda, she said.
The ALP use local government
as a training ground for state and
federal parliament. The City of
Vincent is just one obvious example.
The Greens have always been
strong advocates for local government and welcome more members
of local government that share our
values and vision.

People power
can stop Link
By RHIANNON SHINE
People power is the only way to
prevent the controversial Perth
Freight Link from progressing,
a Cottesloe residents meeting
heard this week.

Oil artist Jen Mellor was inspired by Kings Parks Honour Avenue. Photo: Paul McGovern

Anzac centenary inspired artist


Local artist Jen Mellor
drew inspiration from the
Anzac centenary when creating her submission for this
years Claremont Art Award
and Exhibition.
Her painting depicts the
Kings Parks Honour Avenue
and features three firewood
banksia flowers in different
stages of life.
It has a meaning of life and
end, and how weve grown
these trees along Honour
Avenue to remember peoples

lives, she said.


Jen, a plein air artist, said
she enjoyed painting nature
and botanicals.
My favourite subject matter is the beauty of my surrounds, she said.
Kings Park has become
my backyard. You will find
me often visiting, gathering
reference and inspiration to
capture the beauty of Western
Australian flora on to a canvas.
Painting is my passion it
takes me to another place.

Jen was a finalist in the


Black Swan Heritage Awards
in 2012 and her paintings are
represented in WA galleries.
Her Anzac-inspired oil
painting is one of the finalists
in the art award.
The exhibition will be held
at council headquarters,
308 Stirling Highway, from
September 12 to 25.
Visitors to the exhibition
can vote for their favourite
artwork and be in the running
to win $500.

Opposition Leader Mark


McGowan told a packed Cottesloe
Residents and Ratepayers
Association meeting the state
government planned to sign off
on the Freight Link by November.
But Mr McGowan told them to
remember shark culling and forced
local government amalgamations.
People went out there and had
a go and protested, he said.
Shark culling is now no longer
happening and forced local government amalgamations are off
the agenda.
So sometimes getting out there
and having a go pays dividends.
Greens senator Scott Ludlam
told the meeting: How we win
this is by campaigning until they
are convinced that if they persist
they will lose the next election.
You folk happen to live in the
electorate of the federal Foreign
Minister and you are in the electorate of the Premier, Mr Ludlam
said.
Last week, Premier Colin Barnett

said the Roe 8 highway stage of


the Perth Freight Link would
undoubtedly go ahead.
But he did not know how the
final stage connecting Stirling
Highway to the Fremantle port
would be built.
Curtin University sustainability
expert Peter Newman agreed the
best course of action was to lobby
the Premier.
I personally think the only
real hope is with Colin Barnett,
Professor Newman said.
In that cabinet we can already
see a division appearing.
[Transport Minister] Dean
Nalder and [Senator] Mathias
Cormann are saying they will build
it, its complete, its happening.
And the Premier is stepping
back and saying: Well, we dont
even know what were building
for that second part.
Association chairman John
Hammond urged those at the meeting to write to Mr Barnett and said
Cottesloe council had a hopeless
attitude towards the issue.
Cottesloe council has decided
not to do anything about this issue,
he said.

Cut this fee, say hairdressers


Claremont hairdressers
say they wont pay a new $50
council fee.
I ripped mine up and put it
in the bin, said Shane Dias,
who has a salon in Old Theatre
Lane.
I pay $4000-something in
rates. I dont understand why
we have to pay this.
If we stick together, lets see
what they do about it.
Claremont council said the
new fee would cover biannual
inspections of hairdressers,

beauty therapists and other


businesses under the Health
Act.
It started in July.
Josie Doria, at Lucianos
in Claremont Quarter, was
incensed when she got two
invoices instead of one.
If we all refuse to pay it,
theyve got nowhere to go,
she said.
Thomas Jaeger, whose salon
is near the library, also said
he would not pay the new fee.

NEW stations make recycling easy


Recycling household items, that cannot be placed in the yellow-lidded recycling bin, just got a whole lot easier with the
Town installing new multi-purpose recycling stations at convenient locations around the Town.
Residents can dispose of old fluorescent tubes, light globes, printer cartridges, batteries and mobile phones at the new
stations, which can be found at:
Town of Cambridge Administration, 1 Bold Park Drive, Floreat
Cambridge Library, 99 The Boulevard, Floreat; and
Wembley Community Centre, 40 Alexander Street, Wembley
A fourth recycling station will be positioned at the new Bold Park Aquatic when it reopens in October.
The new recycling stations are part of the Town of Cambridges commitment to Maximum Recovery and contribute to
helping us maximise the amount we recycle and minimise the amount we send to landfill.

For more information contact our Waste Minimisation team on


9347 6000 or waste@cambridge.wa.gov.au

Maggie season swoops in


Residents are reminded that with Spring now upon
us, its time to stay alert and be on the lookout for
swooping magpies.
Magpies have a very strong urge to protect their eggs and
nests and during the breeding season are known to swoop
cyclists and walkers who unwittingly stray into their territory.
Some tips to avoid being swooped:
Stay alert for possible nesting sites and, if necessary,
change your walk/cycle route during the nesting season;
Wear a wide-brimmed hat to protect your head and
eyes;
Supervise children at all times;
If swooped when walking - remain calm, walk away
quickly (do not run), avoid looking directly at the magpie;
If swooped when riding - remain calm, disembark and
walk with your bike (the magpie may stop swooping);
and
Do not provoke or harass magpies by trying to hit them,
screaming, flapping your arms or throwing objects at
their nests.
Please remember that magpies are protected under the
Wildlife Conservation Act and that their swooping behaviour
is just their way of protecting their young.
For more information contact Ranger Services on
9347 6000 or the Department of Parks and Wildlife
Wildcare Helpline on 9474 9055.

The morning will also see the launch of an illustrated book of essays about
wildlife and science, based on a popular newspaper column by nature writer
Mike Bamford.
The Bold Park open day is supported by the Botanic Gardens and Parks
Authority, the Town of Cambridge, BirdLife WA, the Wildflower Society of WA
and the WA Naturalists Club.
Light refreshments will be available for purchase.
For further information including walk times and the book launch visit

Station crossing to be made safer

By LLOYD GORMAN

The pedestrian island in


Railway Road opposite Daglish
Railway Station will be widened and extended in a bid to
make it safer.
The work will lengthen the island to 100m and widen it to 2m,
making it safer for pedestrians
crossing near the busy intersection with Hamersley Road.
The wider pedestrian island
was the last option open to
Subiaco council after Main
Roads WA rejected a call for
traffic lights or a pelican crossing, which the council and a
community group had wanted.
Main Roads said the site did
not meet the criteria needed
for it to install either a traffic

signal control system (which


would cost about $450,000) or a
signalised pedestrian crossing
(about $280,000).
A council-commissioned study
found that more than 14,000 cars
a day used Railway Road, while
1700 used Hamersley Road and
up to 724 people a day crossed
the road there.
The traffic study also found
that there had been 14 crashes
at that spot, including one involving a pedestrian.
While Main Roads acknowledges the concerns council has
for pedestrians who utilise
this crossing, the provision of
new traffic signals and pelican
crossing cannot be supported
in this instance, Main Roads
told Subiaco in a letter.

Too narrow Cyclists and pedestrians have trouble crossing busy


Railway Road with the current refuge island.
[We] suggest that council consider widening the median refuge islands on Railway Road to
assist pedestrian movements.
Darron Freegard, a member of
the Daglish Crossing Community

Group, told councillors at a


recent committee meeting that
the group was profoundly disappointed with the response of
Main Roads.
He said that as well as follow-

ing general policies, Main Roads


could also factor site-specific
issues into its decision.
The reality is that Main
Roads has failed to consider
the local conditions and specifically the use of the crossing by schoolchildren and a
disproportionate number of
the elderly people living in our
community, he said.
Mr Freegard said the group
would campaign for a controlled
crossing but would accept a
wider refuge as an interim
solution.
Councillors at last weeks
council meeting voted unanimously to fast-track designs and
funding (an estimated $180,000)
for the upgraded crossing in the
November budget review.

Cafe approval imminent


Planning approval for the
new Peppermint Grove cafe at
Keanes Point is imminent, the
council says.
CEO John Merrick said he was
waiting on the final building plans
for the Mosmans-run operation.
I predict approval within a
week or two and then we can sort
out a construction timetable, Mr
Merrick said.
The building will be construct-

ed mostly off-site and so should be


a fairly short completion time.
The site is occupied by Cappuccino by the River. Operator Kenny
Nguyen has been on a month-bymonth tenancy since Mosmans
restaurant won a council tender
last year.
Mr Nguyen, who has run the
business for about four years,
tendered with eight others but
was not on the shortlist of three.

PLC ladies in waiting


By DAVID COHEN
Ayad Alqaragholli was
mobbed after his newest
sculpture was unveiled in
Peppermint Grove.
The artists 400kg bronze at
Presbyterian Ladies College
features two elongated women
dancing on a sofa.
Ayad said it taken him about
a year to create the work.
It was unveiled last Thursday
in front of PLC principal Beth
Blackwood, dozens of students
and parents, and the schools
pipe band.
Ms Blackwood said she
counted Ayad, who has been an

artist-in-residence at PLC, as a
precious friend of the school.
This sculpture will stand
here as a landmark, Ms
Blackwood said.
It is designed to be interactive and we hope a tradition
is formed of students being
photographed here when they
arrive at PLC.
Ms Blackwood said girls had
wanted joy, friendship and
community to be represented
in the sculpture, which was
unveiled the day after the
school marked its centenary.
The artwork was unveiled
on Ayads 47th birthday.
He was born in southern
Iraq and migrated to Australia

with his wife and two children


in 2005.
When I was in primary
school, I used to go to museums
in Mesopotamia and look at the
sculptures, Ayad said.
It is important for people
to be engaged with art.
Ayad has had work at
Sculpture by the Sea in
Cottesloe since 2010.
He said the human figure was
very important in art.
Nature without people is
nothing, he said.
The figure is the most beautiful creation in nature.
The school will run a competition to find a name for Ayads
sculpture.

Trees to make way for cars


Seven trees will be cut
down when the carpark on
the corner of Shenton and
Davies roads, Claremont, is
sealed next year.
On Tuesday night, councillors
voted unanimously to spend
$387,000 on the work.
A report to councillors did
not mention trees but Myera
Street resident and Friends of
Lake Claremont coordinator
Heidi Hardisty quizzed
councillors about what would
be cut down.
Corporate governance
manager Les Crichton said the
carpark tuarts would stay, but
seven smaller trees, including
four paperbarks, would have
to be removed.
Mr Crichton said more trees
would be planted elsewhere.
Councillor Karen Wood said:

love the trees in it.
Theres just no way we can
leave it in this state.
The big tree in the middle
is one of the best in Claremont.
Im absolutely delighted its
staying.
Upgrading the carpark will
cost $584,000. LandCorp will
contribute $197,000.

Work is expected to begin


after March next year, after
Shenton Road works are done,
and is expected to take five
weeks.
After the meeting, mayor
Jock Barker said Claremont
had 1000, or 20%, more trees
than it did five years ago, as
well as at least 15,000 plantings.

In this seminar, Fertility Specialists Rebecca & Geoff will share essential dietary and

UPCOMING CAPITAL WORKS IN A


PARK NEAR YOU
The Parks Services department has the following projects scheduled to start in
September/October 2015:
Installing solar-powered bollard lighting in the turfed access way between Haldane St
and Montgomery Ave, Mt Claremont. This also includes lighting the laneway connecting
Earls Court. The use of solar power is in line with the Citys sustainability focus while
ensuring the lighting does not prove obtrusive to nearby residents.
Extending existing bollard lighting from the corner of Beecham Rd and Cleland St to
Montgomery Ave, Mt Claremont. This will provide added safety and security to path
users enjoying the bushland setting walk.
Replacing Sunset Foreshore bollard lighting following increasing maintenance. These
lights run from the Iris Ave staircase to Beaton Park. The replacement lighting will be
LED, in line with the Citys sustainability focus.
Resurfacing Hollywood Tennis Courts. This will require the courts to be closed for about
a week. These works will extend the life and functionality of this facility. Works will
include court grinding, tree root removal, resurfacing and line marking. The City will be
liaising with the court booking agent and affected coaching groups.

STRENGTHEN YOUR COMMUNITY


THROUGH VOLUNTEERING
Are you interested in volunteering?
The Nedlands Volunteer Resource Centre, located upstairs
in the Nedlands Library, is your local one stop shop for
nding out about volunteering.

Installing modern outdoor tness equipment at Mason Gardens, Nedlands. Designs are
currently being evaluated for suitability at the park and for the best location.

The centre offers you free, friendly information about


volunteering and what volunteer positions are available
and can assist you in nding a suitable role.

FOOTPATHS AND OBSTRUCTIONS

For more information contact Robyn Forrest (Community


Development Officer Volunteering) on 9273 3640 or
volunteering@nedlands.wa.gov.au

The City of Nedlands recognises that many residents


put substantial effort into developing and maintaining
gardens on their property and the nature strip.
The City generally supports overhanging shading
of footpaths, parked cars and roadways. However,
vegetation from private property or nature
strip gardens can grow to encroach onto public
thoroughfares and reduce required clearances. These
vegetation obstructions can be a problem, particularly
for people with reduced mobility or access difculties.
Residents are responsible for ensuring that
vegetation located on private property, or any plant
they place on the nature strip (other than a street
tree), does not grow in a manner that may cause
obstruction to a footpath or laneway.
Where the City observes plants or trees are causing
obstruction, the resident will receive notice to prune
the vegetation away from the footpath or laneway.
Failure to remove the obstructing vegetation may
lead to the City issuing an infringement.

DOGS OFF LEAD IN PARKS


The City has recently had an increasing number of
close encounters with dogs running in front of lawn
mowing tractors and causing a nuisance around mowing
equipment. Please keep in mind that these open space
areas are used for other recreational purposes and
need to be maintained constantly by the Citys Park
staff. Please ensure you are capable of controlling your
dog while exercising it off leash and that your dog is not
causing a nuisance to other park users.

SNAKE SEASON
Spring is here, so snakes will be coming out of
hibernation. Snakes are especially conspicuous in the
spring when they rst emerge from winter dormancy
searching for food. The City encourages visitors to
our beaches and bushland areas to be vigilant and to
consider keeping their dogs on a leash.

NEDLANDS LIBRARY TALK - WHAT


IS COELIAC DISEASE?
If you have coeliac disease, going gluten-free is
imperative - as it is for those with the lesser gluten
intolerance. With two daughters and a sister all
diagnosed with coeliac disease, Nikki Watson of
Coeliac WA has learnt a lot about this condition.

YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!


This years local government election will be held on
Saturday 17 October and will be held as a postal election
for the City of Nedlands.

Nikki will talk about identifying the signs that say


gluten is not for you and learn what to do about it.
If its not that, she will also give advice on what else
could be causing the symptoms.

If you want to make a difference in your community and


have a say in local decision-making, vote or stand for
election as a councillor in your local government elections.

Learn about gluten free foods (they have come


a long way), and how this condition is very
manageable.

All eligible electors will receive a postal voting package around


three weeks prior to polling day. The package will include a list
of candidates, ballot papers, instructions on how to vote and
a declaration. For more information, go to the Citys website.

Davenport makes a
silk road road to MLC
Fashion designer Liz
Davenport has given rolls of
fabric to Methodist Ladies
College students.
She had accumulated them
over the 30 years before she
closed her Nedlands headquarters last year.
But despite the closure she
said she had never been busier.
Its great being just Liz
Davenport, she said.
Ive taken myself out of compliance and administration and
Im just focusing on design.
As well as giving the textiles
including Thai silks to the
Claremont school, Liz donated a
huge cutting table, zips, buttons,
beads, and sequins.
The link to MLC was the
schools part-time theatre arts

Nicola walked in one day to

Heads roll
at iiNet

Heads have already started to roll in the


first week of new management at iiNet, and
more Subiaco staff could follow.
The internet and technology firms chief executive, David Buckingham, was ousted from
the top job last week.
Other senior managers are also reported to
have left the company, which has been based
in Hay Street since 2009.
The Financial Review reported that the
new owner had also cut the staffs free sweets
and fruit.
Former rival TPGs $1.6billion takeover of
iiNet started on July 24 and would seem to
have started a cull of senior staff that could
spread to the Subiaco head office, which employs about 650 people.
Around the time of the takeover, Michael
Malone, the Perth entrepreneur who set up
iiNet in his parents garage in 1993, said he
was worried for the jobs and security of his
former employees.
In an interview with the business press, TPG
chief operating officer Craig Levy said iiNets
call centre would stay in Perth, but did not
guarantee job levels.

Some Cottesloe councillors would like to see the


railway underground.

Rail motion sunk

Sinking the railway line would make a huge


difference for Cottesloe, Jack Walsh says.
But a majority of his colleagues did not
agree to his motion to lobby Cottesloe MP and
Premier Colin Barnett about the initiative.
Instead, councillors last week went with
mayor Jo Dawkins move to develop a plan for
the town centre and railway land.
Cottesloe has had several approaches for
spot [zoning] upgrades, Mr Walsh said at last
weeks meeting.
We should be doing it in blocks.
Sinking the track would make a huge difference to Cottesloe.
Rezoning would go a long way to paying
for the sinking.
Councillor Jay Birnbrauer said Cottesloe had
pushed for the sinking six years ago.
Its long overdue, Mr Birnbrauer said.
Ms Dawkins said she did not disagree.
But she said the council needed to define what
it wanted to do, include the town centre, and
have development options for Station Street.
The vote against Mr Walshs motion was 6-3;
the vote for Ms Dawkins was 7-2.
Council CEO Mat Humfrey will prepare a
report for this months council meeting.

Boatshed gets
liquor licence

Boys will
be girls

Its taken the state government 71 days to approve a


liquor licence being shifted
400m.

This week prefects from St


Hildas and Christ Church
Grammar School faced off on
the netball court.

This week, a delegate for


Liquor Licensing director Barry
Sergeant said the Boatshed
Market in Cottesloes Jarrad
Street could use the licence
of Railway Streets Grants
of Cottesloe, which closed in
February.
The Boatsheds Craig Skead
said it would be six months
before the first bottle was sold.
We will now apply for a development application from the
Town of Cottesloe and then proceed to tender and finally build
the wine shop, Mr Skead said.
We are using the old boat
building gantry system to suspend the wine store bringing
back a bit more of the buildings
history into the business.
Americas Cup-winning yacht
Australia II was built at the site
when it was a boatshed.

In a long-standing tradition, St
Hildas invites its brother school
for the contest as a fundraiser
for Anglicare WA.
Cross-dressing was the order
of the day, and unfortunately for
the girls, brute force won out
despite hopes that the skirts
would slow the boys down.
The final score was 10:2 to
Christ Church.
The gold netball trophy was
considered to be worth the effort, as well as the hundreds of
dollars raised from spectators.

state government, since 2008 and
his current term as chairman
expired last Monday.
Responding to a query from
the POST, a senior media
adviser to Local Government
Minister Tony Simpson said
Mr Congerton had been reappointed as chairman.
Mr Congerton, who also sits
on a development assessment
panel, presided over the LGAB

during the state governments


failed council cull policy.
The LGAB accepted
Cambridges proposal to swallow
up Subiaco and recommended
it to the Minister.
Morawa councillor Karen
Chappel, who was a deputy
member of the five-person panel,
replaces Kalgoorlie-Boulder
mayor Ron Yuryevich as a fulltime member.
Bunbury mayor Gary Brennan
has been made a deputy member
of the LGAB.
Mr Brennan was chief of staff
for almost five years to former
local government minister John
Castrilli.
Their terms run until August
31, 2018.

There are always snakes at


City Beach, Rod Bradley wants
to remind people.

Rod Bradley found a snake skin


but no snake in his shed.

And they are not necessarily


confined to the dunes or the
bush, he says.
Mr Bradley, a Cambridge
councillor, wants people to take
extra care since a woman died
after being bitten by a snake
near Fremantle last month.
Mr Bradley, a grandfather of
six, said he had found poisonous
snakes in his swimming pool
and on the steps near his front
door as well as signs of one in

a shed at his home in Lowanna


Way, City Beach.
I opened the door to the shed
and there was the whole skin of
a snake intact, he said.
Another day I stepped out of
the front door and there was a
snake stretched out across the
top step, basking in the sun.
It slid away into a crack between the bricks and when the
snake catcher came we could see
it poking its head out but it went
too far in for him to catch it.
Mr Bradley is standing for reelection to Cambridge council.

Its Duck
Crossing
Season

Senior Ranger John Balcombe herding ducks through the town centre.

Actually, it is duckling crossing season. Each year around


this time, parent ducks are making the arduous journey,
with their new ducklings in tow, from breeding areas
near the Swan River through to the safe haven of Lake
Claremont. Drivers are asked to be vigilant when driving
in and around the town centre and to help these lovely
little ducks if you can.

The art award is another opportunity for artists to


connect with audiences said 2014 Claremont Art

Following a recent traffic count and speed study of


Bay View Terrace in the town centre, it was noted that
speeds entering Bay View Terrace from Gugeri Street
were higher than warranted. The current legal speed in
the shared pedestrian and vehicle space is 10km/h. For
the safety of pedestrians in the Terrace, a new traffic
calming speed hump has been installed at the Gugeri
Street entrance. Main Roads WA have agreed with the
Town to formally sign Bay View Terrace as a Shared
Zone. New signage will be installed to remind drivers
that Bay View Terrace is a shared zone and pedestrians
have priority as per the Road Traffic Code 2000.

Surf here we come


Western suburb streets came alive with
runners and volunteers on Sunday as tens of
thousands of participants brought fun and fitness to our doorsteps.

According to the organisers, more than 50,000


people took part in the City to Surf run, which
over its 41-year history has evolved into four runs
over a variety of routes.
The day kicked off at 6am with the start of the
full 42km marathon. Other events are the halfmarathon, 12km City to Surf run and walk, and
the 4km run/walk/wheelchair.
Friends, relatives and locals turned out to cheer
on and encourage the participants, while some
motorists who had forgotten about the traffic
stops got caught in snarls.
Apart from the start and finish, Subiaco was a
centre of huge activity, with local radio station
Nova taking full advantage of its location.

Every marathon runner was oered a free high-ve in


Bagot Road, Subiaco.

Nun on the run.

Runners get
the message
Conservationists were out in
force at the City to Surf run.
Armed with banners and
placards, they took the chance
to pinpoint the threatened
Underwood Avenue bush to runners tackling what has become
known as heartbreak hill past
Underwood Avenue Bushland.
Margaret Owen, from the
Friends of Underwood Avenue
Bushland, said: The stand of
Banksia prionotes on the north
side of the bushland is one of
the biggest around and provides
food to support the carnabys
cockatoos while they are in
the area in the non-breeding
season.

Parking tickets down

Bush campaigners spelled out their message to runners about the importance of the Underwood Avenue site on the route that is threatened
with development.

The message about parking


restrictions during the City
to Surf seems to be getting
through to motorists.
Each year, drivers caught out
illegally parking complain they
have been unfairly treated, but
Cambridge council staff said
the number of tickets issued
was down this year.
Council CEO Jason Buckley
said: The City to Surf resulted
in 46 parking notices being

issued, which included four


cautions, Mr Buckley said.
It is a significant reduction
from last year, when 82 tickets,
including 19 cautions, were
issued.
This could be attributed to a
slight reduction in competitor
numbers, but could also be the
result of greater driver awareness of the parking restrictions
and, as a result, better driver
behaviour.

Despite protests,
Cott wont fight link

twice not to oppose the Perth

Keeping Alices adventures alive


Alices Adventures in
Wonderland had transcended
time, Methodist Ladies College
teacher/librarian Deborah
Bourke said.
Students dressed up as characters from the book last week
to mark the 150th anniversary
of its publication.
The story of Alice, the bored
little girl who went in search of
adventures, has been entertaining children ever since Lewis
Carroll first told the story to

the children of a friend, Ms


Bourke said.
The real Alice was one of
those children.
It still sparks childrens imaginations, as Alice journeys
through the rabbit hole, meeting an array of interesting and
topsy-turvy characters along
the way.
Ms Bourke said the book was
perfect for dress-ups.
The wide range of characters
in the story can be interpreted
in traditional or modern dress,

she said.
All our junior-year girls know
the story of Alice and had a great
time choosing their favourite
characters to be for a day.
There arent many books
that are 150 years old that still
impact children in the way that
this one does.
Lewis Carroll aka Charles
Lutwidge Dodgson wrote his
first Alice draft in 1862 but
added the Cheshire Cat and Mad
Hatters Tea-Party episodes two
years later.

Two public demonstrations


against the $1.6billion project
a road link between Fremantle
port and Perths eastern industrial suburbs have been held,
but at the July council meeting,
the vote to oppose the link was
lost, 3-5.
The council has now voted
twice by slim majorities not to
oppose the freight link.
The first time was on June
22, when mayor Jo Dawkins
used her casting vote to join
councillors Philip Angers and
Peter Jeanes to defeat a motion
to oppose the link.
Councillors Jack Walsh, Sally
Pyvis and Jay Birnbrauer voted
to oppose the link.
At its meeting on July 27, the
same three councillors were
outvoted on the same issue by
councillors Jeanes, Angers,
Rob Rowell, Katrina Downes,
and Helen Burke. Mrs Dawkins
was absent.
Before the council voted on
opposing the link, Grant Street
resident Peter Rattigan said
councillors should fight it.
I urge this council to oppose
what is going to be a waste of
money, Mr Rattigan said.
Put money into the outer
harbour instead that would
take trucks off all suburban
roads, particularly Cottesloe.
Ms Pyvis said she disagreed
with a council administration
report which said a report about
the link by Professor Peter
Newman had not been based
on references.
There are many references,

many being to government documents, Ms Pyvis said.


The Perth Freight Link is a
road that leads to nowhere.
There are so many unanswered questions.
A detailed business plan
supporting the PFL has not
been released.
Where is the transparency?
Mr Rowell said fuel tankers
would still be in the area until
a fuel line was built from North
Fremantle to Armadale.
We will continue to have container trucks going to Osborne
Park and Wangara, he said.
The Perth Freight Link has
nothing to do with Curtin Avenue
and West Coast Highway traffic.
Mr Walsh also disagreed with
the council report.
Main Roads says there will
be a 42% leakage from the
Perth Freight Link to roads,
Mr Walsh said.
Acting mayor Mr Jeanes said
the worst-case scenario was that
nothing happened.
He said the Perth Freight Link
would be better than nothing.
Premier Colin Barnett was
invited to speak at the link
forum held last Tuesday in the
Cottesloe Civic Centre.
But he refused to attend,
telling the local ratepayers
association that advertising
for the meeting was under the
banner of Rethink the Link,
and the event appeared to be
a political debate.
Ms Dawkins said Main Roads
had told council officers the
Freight Links intention was to
provide a safe route and remove
heavy vehicles from roads other
than the Link.
This would include roads in
Cottesloe, she said.

Drinking in
the show
By DAVID COHEN
Stephen Brook once got into
strife over a book he wrote on
the power and politics of the
Bordeaux wine industry.
I didnt pull my punches,
Mr Brook said.
It was about the peculiarities of the place and it got me
into trouble.
People still come up to me
and say what a great book it was.
Mr Brook, from the UK, was
at Claremont Showgrounds this
week for Perth Royal Wine Show
judging.
He has written 32 books on
wine, Britains class system,
Jews, travel, the Salvation
Army, and other topics, but
said the Bordeaux book was
his favourite.
Its important writers remain
100% independent, he said.
It was his third time in WA.
His first trip was an exploration
at Margaret River and a big tasting at Cullens; the second was
to the towns wine show.
Globally, the wine industry
is in pretty good shape, Mr
Brook said.
There are new emerging
markets: China, Brazil, eastern
Europe.
Mr Brook said he got into wine
journalism by accident.
I was writing a lot of book
reviews for the New Statesman
and they asked me to do something on wine, he said.
Eventually I was writing a
wine column every week.
Then I moved to Vogue after
I wrote to them and got lucky.
Mr Brook said the Australian
wine show judging system had
its critics, but he thought very
highly of the process.

The only neighbour to object


to a bed-and-breakfast business in their street owned a
vacant block, Peter Dhu told
councillors.

Oenophiles Stephen Brook and Ainslie Gatt at the Perth Royal Wine Show in Claremont.
Photo: Paul McGovern
Also at the Showgrounds was
Cottesloe resident Ainslie Gatt,
a member of The Fabulous
Ladies Wine Society.
The group says members are
... sick of the testosteronefuelled, high falutin and (lets
face it) downright yawn-inducing
way in which this most deliciously wonderful beverage is
communicated.

I do like riesling at the moment its fresh and crisp, Ms


Gatt said.
Years ago it was sweet and
horrible.
Ms Gatt, an art consultant,
said she drank a lot at the Show.
With the ladies was Houghton
Wines Courtney Treacher, a
wine judge, who wore an eye
mask so she didnt see the labels

on the bottles.
The Perth Royal Wine Show
ran from Monday to Friday,
September 4.
Twenty-five other judges
joined Mr Brook in tasting 2091
wines from 346 entrants.
Judges results were due to
be announced on the last day
of the Show.

Mr Dhu and his wife Violet are


empty nesters and want to rent
a spare room and bathroom in
their five-bedroom, two-storey
home in Tower Street, West
Leederville.
But the owner of a block opposite told planners it would
spoil the area.
As it happens, this street is
already too close to Leederville
commercial hub, the landowner
said in a letter to the council.
He said a bed-and-breakfast
use would have a negative effect
on the value of his property and
he would want compensation.
We residents of the street will
fight the approval of this unfair
decision either as a class action
or individually, through all legal
and social media avenues.
Mr Dhu told the development
committee he had spoken to
most of his neighbours.
They think it is a good idea,
he said.
We will live upstairs.
Cambridge council agreed
the Dhus could run a bed-andbreakfast business from their
home.

Withers in the crosshairs

By LINDA CALLAGHAN

Council elections could turn


into a bloodbath in Cambridge.
Four candidates will compete for the mayoral chain and
whatever happens the vote will
be split.
Anger among ratepayers has
built up over the past six months
because of proposed changes
to housing types allowed in
the town.
Mayor Simon Withers has been
the prime target.
He held off announcing
whether he would run again
until Thursday, he said to spare
his family from what had become
increasingly personal attacks.
During the Amendment 31
debate I was subjected to five
months of nasty and personal attacks, including banners outside
the primary school where I take
my children, he said.
I delayed announcing because I wanted to minimise the
time that my family would be
exposed to this kind of abuse.
In a way, this election is a
vote on whether that kind of
behaviour is acceptable.
Five candidates led by lawyer
Keri Shannon declared themselves a ticket for more than
half the seats on the council.
Ms Shannon works for a resources company and has degrees in finance and accounting.
She lived in West Leederville
before moving to City Beach.
Maverick councillor Rod
Bradley, who has often been
a lone voice on the council, is
standing. Three others who have
stood in previous elections and
been defeated make up the rest
of the ticket.
The other two candidates for
mayor are City Beach lawyer
Gary Mack and councillor
Pauline OConnor.
Mr Mack started canvassing

Ted and Pauline OConnor after


their wedding.
months ago delivering his own
leaflets and chatting to voters
on the streets.
He has been working his way
through West Leederville.
He worked for Fremantle
council before going back into
private practice with a Subiaco
firm.

Married to high school teacher


Leila for 32 years, they have a
son and two daughters.
He said he had been approached by an agent for the
ratepayers group asking him
not to run because he would
split the vote.
Ms OConnor (68), who has a
seat as a councillor for another
two years, said she would not
join ratepayers because she had
never run on a ticket.
That is just not me, she said.
What you see is what you get.
I am a straight shooter.
I have never run with any
group and they never asked me.
A former deputy mayor who
was acting mayor following
the resignation of Marlene
Anderton, Ms OConnor was
also previously a member of
Perth city council when Simon
Withers late father, Reg, was
lord mayor.
Now the rugby union season
has wrapped up, Ms OConnor
said she was putting all her time
into her campaign to be mayor
of Cambridge.
She described herself as rugby
mad, a devotion she shares with
her husband, Ted, who played
in the No.8 shirt.
He is a New Zealander and

the London Marathon.
Mr Withers and his wife,
Emma, have two daughters
aged nine and seven who have
a hectic round of ballet, scout
groups, cubs and joeys as well as
looking after two dogs and a cat.
Mr Withers said he used to
play tennis and hoped to return
to it after having back surgery
last year.
A former lap swimmer, he
has taken the plunge at HBF
Stadium to get fit again in readiness for the rebuilt Bold Park
pool opening.

Former lawyer to stand in Cott

his verge last year.
That certainly could have
been handled a lot better, Mr
Rodda said.
It could have been done
to a better standard. Various

As with anything, consultation is key.

of whether we received a flyer.
Mr Rodda said he had never
been a member of a political

was his own.

by myself, he said.
I dont believe local government is a place for party

How mens sheds can


help with dementia
Being an active member of
a mens shed can help with
dementia, according to a senior
dementia consultant.
Michelle Harris, from
the Bethanie Care Group,
dropped into the Mosman Park
Community Mens Shed recently
to give a talk to members on
Living Well with Dementia.
She was so impressed with
the shed that she declared it
dementia friendly, and said it
was a model of what society
needed.
Ms Harris said that every
four seconds, one person was
diagnosed with some form of
dementia across the globe.
The rise is so significant
that I dont believe there will
be enough care homes in 2050
in Australia to cope with the
dramatic rise in dementia,
she said.
She explained that part of
the problem was that funding
was based on disability rather
than ability.
We need to support peoples
abilities rather than focusing

on pills and potions, she said.


The mens shed is therapy.
It is brilliant, and we need
more of them around the world.
Ms Harris said she had been
particularly impressed by the
signs, photos and accessibility
of the Mosman Park shed.
Every person with dementia
has a different experience, so
our approach to communication must be person centred,
she said.
We need to build a dementiafriendly community with services that support a person to
maintain their autonomy.
She said dementia caused a
shift in the way someone experienced the world.
As a society, we must become
more dementia aware and
friendly by changing our minds
about people whose minds have
changed, she said.
With the support of the
WA Mens Shed Association,
Bethanie has recently opened
four sheds in its lifestyle villages
in Busselton, Capel, Rockingham
and Yanchep.

Judo on the curriculum

Some Shenton College students have added judo to the


list of things they study at
school and their learning
curve is going to be part of an
academic study.

Michelle Harris with members of the Mosman Park Community Mens


Shed. Photo: James Campbell

Last month, with the support of


the UWA Judo Club, the school
started its own judo academy
and nearly 40 students signed
up for weekly lessons.
Shenton College principal
Michael Morgan said it was
the rst high school-based judo
club in WA.
This initiative will allow
Shenton College students to

Town of Claremont Presents

enjoy the international Olympic


sport of judo through high school
and continue into university,
while beneting from the physical and moral teaching of judo
and the incredible opportunities
for international exchange,
he said.
We hope to develop a competitive edge and foster international student exchange
with Shenton Colleges established international network
of schools.
The club was of great interest
to judo master and academic
Akitoshi Sogabe, visiting from

Konan University in Kobe,


Japan.
Dr Sogabe, a 6th dan, was at
Edith Cowan University two
years ago to research knee injuries in judo, and during this
time he coached and trained at
UWAs Judo Club.
He was back in Perth last week
as part of another international
research project for the All
Japan Judo Federation.
Dr Sogabe was in WA as part
of a survey of four countries
Australia, Japan, France and
Germany to look at judo in the
education system.

Mosman tighter on grants


As part of its budget tightening, Mosman Park council has
changed its community chest
program.
Since it began in July 2013, 13
grants of between $1000 and $3000
have been given to community
groups for community projects.
A staff report to Tuesday nights
council meeting suggested changing the program to allow local
groups to buy small equipment,
such as printers, that allow them
to function better; cover the cost
of promotional materials such as
brochures or signs which encour-

age membership; or cover the cost


of training or courses to allow
volunteers to develop skills.
At the corporate and technical
services committee meeting on
August 11, North ward councillor Zenda Johnson welcomed the
proposed changes, saying the current system probably cost more to
administer than it gave out.
The council will now have
one round of grants a year, with
this years applications due on
November 6.
It will review the program next
February.

Transgender sperm storage


A Nedlands reproductive clinic
is providing sperm storage for
transgender people undergoing
the change from male to female.
The Keogh Institute for Medical
Research at the QEII Medical
Centre said the stored sperm
could later be used for IUI or IVF
procedures in the female partners
of transsexual women.
The institute said hormonal and
surgical treatments were known to
decrease fertility.

In male to female transition, the


number of viable sperm reduces
gradually. Within a few years of
treatment there will be no detectable sperm and ultimatelythiswill
become irreversible.
Ideally, sperm storage should
be done before hormonal therapy
starts.
The institute is the only sperm
storage centre in WA not attached to an IVF clinic, allowing
transgender people to feel more
comfortable.

was stolen from his car
on Wednesday night.
Austin is appealing for
the book to be returned.
It was taken from
the car either at the
Glendalough shopping
centre or Pollard Street,
Glendalough, Austin
said.
The thieves also stole a
bottle of Wolf Blass Grey
Label wine from the car,
a Hyundai i45.
Also taken were articles
and proofs of Austins stories for the POST.
The address book is the
killer, Austin said.
If that could be returned, or if someone finds
it, that would be great.

Police wonder if these two men can assist with queries


about a Claremont crime.

Men sought for assault info

Two smartly-dressed
men in their 20s may be
able to help with queries about an assault in
Claremont last month,
police say.
At about 12.45am on
Monday, August 10, two
men were in a physical
confrontation in Stirling
Highway.
Detective Senior
Constable Terry Gilmore
said a third man had
approached the men in
an attempt to calm the
situation, but he had been
forcefully pushed against
a wall, knocking him out.
The injured man was
taken to hospital and later
released.

The first man had light


skin and dark short hair,
was about 1.8m tall and of
medium build.
He was wearing a black
leather jacket, white
button-up collared shirt,
brownish grey skinny
pants, and brownish grey
shoes.
The second man had a
tan, a slim build and short
dark or black hair, and was
about 1.82m tall.
He had on a blue suittype jacket, blue collared
button-up shirt, and tan
pants and shoes.
Information can be
given to Crime Stoppers
quoting reference number
7817.

Drugs, cash seized in raid


Police seized ice, heroin, cannabis, and $10,000
cash during a raid on a
Mt Hawthorn home on
Tuesday morning.
Wembley police joined
detectives from Perth and
Midland to search the
Fairfield Street home.
Acting Senior Sergeant
Dave Stevenson said tips
to Crime Stoppers from the
public were instrumental
in getting the warrant.
A Mt Hawthorn man
(39) has been charged
with a range of offences,

including 73 counts of
offer to sell or supply a
prohibited drug, Sergeant
Stevenson said.
A 49-year-old Mt
Hawthorn woman has
also been charged with
30 counts of offer to sell
or supply a prohibited
drug.
Both people had their
bail refused when they
appeared in the Perth
Magistrates Court.
Vincent council workers
declared the home unsafe
for human habitation.

Methadone
tip-o
A Mosman Park man
had methadone in his
home last Friday, police
allege.
Officers from Cottesloe
police station searched in
the morning at the 45-yearolds Stirling Highway
home.
The man was charged
with possessing a prohibited drug and unlawful
possession of property.
Station officer-incharge Neil Morton-Smith
said the search had happened in part thanks to
a tip-off.
Information from the
community can be very
helpful and we are grateful when residents report
suspicious activity or
people, Senior Sergeant
Morton-Smith said.

Burglars
walk in
Some Cottesloe residents were home when
they were burgled last
weekend.
The burglars got into the
Avonmore Terrace home
through an unlocked back
door between 11pm on
Saturday night and 8am
on Sunday.
They took a wallet, cash
and jewellery.
A bank card in the wallet
was used to commit frauds.

On Wednesday morning, John Woodhouse was


admiring his cumquatladen tree which stood
outside his Orangery
Gallery in Onslow Road.
During night, someone
else was apparently
equally impressed with
the fruiting tree and
stole it.
Leaving tyre marks in
the grass, the fruit-loving
thief appeared to have
tried to lift the entire pot,
realised it was too heavy
and pushed it over to pull
the tree out.
The thief left the second
less impressive cumquat
tree to stand alone.

Now there is only one


cumquat.

40 charges for ex-Telstra man


A former Telstra
worker is due in court
next week after allegedly stealing Telstra
property valued at more
than $250,000.
Major fraud squad officers charged the 38-yearold Applecross man with
40 counts of stealing as a
servant.
He has been sacked from
his job, which included
managing client accounts.
A Telstra spokesman

said no company customers had been affected by


the alleged crimes.
Police said that between
January and October last
year, the man had ordered
phones and iPads under
different customer accounts and forwarded the
items to himself.
They said he had sold
the items online and kept
the proceeds.
The man is due to appear in Perth Magistrates
Court next week.

52kmh over the Freeway limit


Police said a 20-yearold Churchlands man was
speeding on the Freeway
two weeks ago.
They said the man had
been driving a Subaru
Forester at 152kmh
when he was pinged in

Joondalup at 10.15pm on
Friday, August 21.
The Mitchell Freeway
has a 100kmh limit.
Last Wednesday, police
impounded the Subaru
and charged the 20-yearold with reckless driving.

Why Coast ward ratepayers are taking Cambridge council to court


Letter from Robert Walker
Coast Ward Ratepayers Association

On August 25, Cambridge Coast


Ward Ratepayers Association
applied to the Supreme Court for
a judicial review of Cambridge
councils decisions to initiate and
adopt scheme Amendment 31.
Amendment 31 may result in
45% of City Beach residential
lots and 33% in Floreat being
strata-titled for multiple and
grouped dwellings.
In some streets, the amend-

ment affects 80% to 95% of lots.


In addition, grouped dwellings
on corner lots are to be granted
concessions with reduced setbacks,
effectively destroying the uniform
setbacks for which these suburbs
are renowned and admired.
In Floreat, heights for multiple
dwellings will be greater than
are now permissible.
Over 82% of respondents to
the statutory advertising period
opposed Amendment 31, but the
council ignored its own planners
and experts advice and adopted

it with only minor modications


and without further advertising
or consultation.
The amendment was adopted
by mayor Simon Withers and
councillors Corinne MacRae,
Colin Walker and Tracey King.
Professional advice we have
received says the adopted
amendment is still fundamentally awed, will not achieve the
stated aims of creating housing
diversity, and will severely affect
the character of these suburbs
as we know and love them.

We are opposed to Amendment


31 as adopted because:
It does not represent a good planning outcome for these suburbs;
It delivers density without
diversity;
There have been failures in
legal and statutory process that,
if followed, might have led to a
better planning outcome;
There is a better way affordable housing and diversity can be
obtained with minimal impact or
conict on homes in traditional
suburban streets.

Andrew Mills defensive


arguments (Wembley matters, Letters, POST, August
22) over being handpicked by
Keri Shannons Save Our City

run for Cambridges Wembley
ward give the impression he is
a Wembley boy with an address
in Cambridge Street, Wembley,
in my view.
In fact, he lives in Hovea
Crescent, City Beach, which
is the address he gave when
he asked questions about
Amendment 31 at the Cambridge
council meeting on April 28.
At the same meeting I was
present he said: Ive got a

Great white took woman in 1985


Re Sharks dont eat women
(POST, August 22).
During the 1980s and 90s, I
was living in South Australia.
In 1985, a woman was killed
while abalone diving and snorkelling not far from the shore in
the Port Lincoln Peninsula area,
not far from where tuna shing
boats were moored.
Her husband and children
were watching from the shore

when a huge white pointer came


out of nowhere, took hold of her
and pushed her out of the water.
No remains were ever found.
It was a terrible event for
her family to have witnessed.

Are possums

Candidates not from Wembley


a great idea they build an eightstorey building right nearby
with residential housing. No
one bought in there thinking it
would be low density forever,
did they?
But two apartments in a twostorey building the size of a City
Beach house were unacceptable.
I can see hed like eight storeys in Wembley, where he has

If you are seeking election,
giving your home address when
you write to the POST would be
a good place to start.

Floreat and the association have
obtained, at their own expense,

Stand up to them, Withers


I am utterly disgusted reading some of the vile letters
and comments that have been
presented over the past few
weeks regarding Cambridge
mayor Simon Withers and
councillors.
I have been watching and
listening to the unruly and
rude attacks on the above by a
small group of uncouth people
who must surely have some
unstated agenda, unrelated to
their objection to the zoning

amendment proposed by the


council.
No doubt we all have an
opinion, but dont express this
in such a manner.
Hopefully Mr Withers and
the council will stand up to
this bunch of rabblerousers,
and get on with the excellent
way Cambridge has been run
over the past few years.

Last night, out on the terrace,


for the rst time ever I watched
a possum eating the berries off
the cape lilac on the verge.
I have been thinking for quite
some time to start an anti-cape
lilac movement.
They are an intrusive weed
and a home for those nasty white
moths whose caterpillars invade
anything that isnt hermetically
sealed.
Get rid of them.
But now even the possums are
feeding on them.
The twenty-eights have been
doing so, and for the past two or
three years the black cockatoos
have been at it too.
Is this because the natural
food source for the birds has
been phased out of the city
environs, and the possums are
running out of old rotting roofs
to feel comfy in?
These guys need to be fed, but
an alternative to the cape lilac
needs to be introduced.

Avoid them,

I wish I could
save the old
trees next door
Having read the councils
policy on trees in Claremont,
I was hoping the large stone
pine trees (Pinus pinea) in my
neighbours backyard would be
protected.
However, after speaking to
Andrew in the councils park
department over the weekend, I
learnt the homeowner can chop
down any tree on his private
property, though the council
tries to preserve trees.
These are a cluster of magnificent stone pines, about
30m high and a haven for birds
and wildlife, in particular the
already threatened carnabys
cockatoo.
I believe my new neighbour is
planning to take some of these
trees out.
Already some significant peppermint trees have gone.
Ria Kitson
Airlie Street, Claremont

Why do mature trees have to


be cut down at such an alarming rate in our suburbs?
As I drove past Karakatta
station last week, I thought they
were pruning, but no!
By the afternoon, at least
six trees had been cut to the
ground to make way for a bike
track.
If we can ride a bike, surely
we can steer around a tree?

Too many trees get the chop in our

Ashlea Wilken suburbs, says Claremont reader AshSecond Avenue, Claremont


lea Wilken.

Dont toe Liberal party line


on bombing, Julie Bishop

Claremont reader Ria Kitson sent in this photo of stone pines she fears
her neighbours may be planning to get rid of.

So thats why Barnett wanted small councils gone


At a recent Cottesloe council
meeting, I asked two questions
specific to Marine Parade.
When would the no standing
and speed limit stencilled signs
be repainted?
The response was that the
first would be repainted in due
course and that Main Roads was
responsible for the second.
Apparently, Main Roads installed speed limit stencilled
signs as a trial and has decided
to abandon them, because they
have had no effect.
The council then said speed
limit compliance was strong
in Marine Parade, so I guess it
concurs that signs are not really
necessary because everyone
pretty much does the right thing,
mostly!
My second question was about
safely crossing Marine Parade
at or near the Wearne Hostel
and Lady Lawley Cottage, which
cater to aged residents and children with disabilities.
The council response was
that the area did not meet the
minimum volume of traffic
and pedestrian use to justify
installing safe havens like zebra
crossings.
In fact, the council said safe
havens or crossings actually
increased pedestrian accidents,

based on its experience.


So now I find out speed limits
painted on the road and zebra
crossings are actually not only
a waste of time but also hazardous to pedestrians, based on the
councils experience!
I just hope that if any councillors are fortunate enough to be
cared for at the Wearne Hostel,
they remember their comments
as they are getting wheeled
across Marine Parade and a
car is approaching them at or
above the speed limit.

I hope they say to themselves


as they try to huddle within the
confines of the traffic median:
Thank God I didnt support a
crossing or my well-being might
have been in danger.
I am starting to see why
Premier Colin Barnett wanted
to do away with councils that
wasted money and time and
did nothing.
He has to look no further than
Cottesloe council, in his own
electorate.
Shirley Primeau
Marine Parade, Cottesloe

I was astonished to hear


Foreign Minister and Curtin MP
Julie Bishop call for Europe to
join the bombing of Syria as a
way to stem the flow of refugees.
The refugees, predominantly
from Syria, are fleeing the bombing by the US, Turkey, Saudi
Arabia, the Syrian government
and now, apparently, Australia.
The bombing of ISIS positions,
mainly by the US, over the past
year or more has made no difference to the strength and fighting
capacity of ISIS on the ground.
The bombing campaigns kill
more civilians and destroy more
civilian infrastructure than ISIS
strongholds in fact, the bombing seems to be hit and miss, with
the emphasis on miss.
Plainly and simply: more
bombing leads to more refugees,
but Ms Bishop knows that.
Does Australia take in extra
refugees from the dipterous
wars it waged in Afghanistan
and Iraq?

Im wheelchair bound and looking forward to Uber


I am disabled and require
round-the-clock care.
I use an electric wheelchair
for mobility and rely heavily on
maxi-taxis for transport.
Last Friday, I was forced to
make yet another formal complaint about a taxi driver who
showed up to the job extremely
late with his pants undone and
underwear visible.
He clearly had a hunger for
fast food, because he insisted
that my friends operate the
wheelchair hoist and strap my
wheelchair into the van themselves while he ordered food
and left the meter running.
When he returned to the

vehicle after a considerable


delay, he proceeded to drive
as though he was competing in
the Grand Prix.
In the end, because one of my
friends was in a rush to get to
work and the driver had no idea
how to get there, or how long
it would take, we dropped my
friend at his house, which was
nearby, and he called an Uber.
During the rest of the taxi ride,
my other friends and I feared
for our lives.
I assume the drivers appalling conduct was all because we
were travelling a short distance,
meaning that almost the whole
fare paid was consumed by

overheads and fees imposed


by the parent company and
government.
That said, there are many good
taxi drivers out there, some of
whom are my regular drivers
who I book privately, as do most
wheelchair users, bypassing
dispatchers.
I want UberAssist to enter the
market for the drivers benefit.
I am sure you would never
want to work 16 hours a day,
assisting people living with disabilities with their transport,
for approximately $10 to $12 an
hour, would you?
James Davies
Fortview Road, Mt Claremont

Of course not!
We seem to expect them all
to go to Europe, already overcrowded.
Australia buries its head in
the ground when it comes to
refugees escaping wars, death,
bombings and destruction.
We lock them up, hide them
away, throw away the key, refuse them entry to Australia or
anywhere where they will be
afforded the dignity befitting a
human being.
Come on, Ms Bishop: you are
an educated, intelligent woman.
Dont make ignorant statements that toe the party line
rather than telling the truth.
Give Australians the benefit
of being able to assess your
comments and those of your
government for what they are
worth.
Walk in their shoes.

Cushioned by design
LOUISA WALES

he quest to find the perfect


cushion led Cottesloe textile
artist Sally Philip to the
obvious answer: make it herself.
I kept buying more and
more cushions, trying to find the
perfect cushion, Sally said.
It got so bad that I had to
actually sell some on Gumtree
just to make room for the new
ones.
Laughingly dubbing herself
the Imelda of cushions, Sally
said she had always been
creative, and her cushion quest
had led her to begin a design
process that recently culminated
in her range of hand-stencilled
linen cushions.
I had an idea of what I
wanted and what I would like,
she said.
There are so many massproduced printed cushions, and
they all start to look the same.
I thought it was time I just
created what I loved.
Weary of the sheen and
gaudiness of synthetic fabric
cushions pumped out by the
thousands in factories, Sally

Sally Philip is continuing a family tradition of being creative with fabrics.

opted for the tactile and earthy


pleasure of plain linen, adorned
only with her monochrome
stencilled designs.
I love the raw, clean feel of
linen, she said.
I found some really goodquality softened linen in
America. Then I just came up
with all the sorts of simple clean

designs that I would like to see in


my home.
She says her designs have a
coastal influence, born of her
love of living near the sea.
With a similarly coastal colour
palette soft yellows, neutrals,
shades of blue, sea greens and
soft pinks and stencil designs
ranging from a whimsical moose

to a rhapsodic oak tree Sallys


cushions combine simplicity with
subtlety.
I have always loved painting,
she said, and I enjoy the
process of hand painting each
picture, keeping the end quality
really high.
Im a bit of a perfectionist,
and Im very particular.
For Sally, a busy mother of
three girls who works parttime, the decision to follow her
creative impetus through to
completion has been a joy.
Im never happier than when
Im creating, she said.
Ive always wanted to do
something creative; I actually
wanted to be an interior
designer when I was younger,
but I followed the sensible path
rather than the creative path
and became a nurse and then
trained as a sonographer.
I feel like Im at the stage of
my life where I just want to give
it a go.
With a mother who was a
very creative and gifted quilter,
and three daughters who love
to contribute to Sallys design
decisions, there is a strong sense

ior

te r

ex

POST, September 5, 2015 Page 43

of feminine continuity in Sallys


endeavour.
She plans to develop a bigger
range of cushions, including some
for outdoors, and table linen.
I can never find table runners
that are long enough for the
tables these days, she said.
They all look short and stumpy.
Drawing on another creative
avenue of hers, floristry, Sally
has an innovative idea to make
a decorative runner that could
provide a two-dimensional
artwork for the table.
I want to be able to lay
something on the table and
make it look beautiful with hand
painted images, so that you can
have a dinner party with it rather
than having all the flowers and
candles, which take up all the
space, she said.
Sallys designs can be
customised, and her range
includes fun colours and stencils
that would be suitable for
childrens rooms.
She hopes to have her
cushions stocked in some small
boutique shops, but for now
is selling them online through
Facebook at Sally Philip Designs.

CATHERINE MAZZA
Do-it-yourself projects often begin
with the best intentions.
The prospect of creating something
yourself is initially met with enthusiasm
and grand expectations, but
sometimes, even the best intentions
can fall by the wayside when a
project starts to get too hard, takes
too long or if the results dont quite
look as they should.
With this in mind, several Perth
businesses are running workshops
that give people a chance to

complete DIY projects or learn skills


without the long-time investment.
Interiors retailer Corner Store started
its Crafting at the Co-op earlier this
year, run at its Fremantle premises.

So far there have been workshops in

their popularity, Lynn and her team will
be expanding the workshop schedule to
include classes in homewares and DIY

The classes are typically held on
weekend afternoons and the costs

If that isnt enough to tempt you, they
provide morning or afternoon tea to

ube Nouvelle means


new dawn and
for retail stylist and
textile artist Gloria Ford,
that is just what her little
Claremont shop has been.
The small Leura
Avenue store, crammed
with beautiful, tactile
homewares, was a whole
new beginning for Gloria
when, last year, she
decided to use her talents
in interior design, styling,
textiles and handcrafting
and bring them all
together under one roof.
Its really about
community and giving
back, she said of her
warm, friendly shop with
its eclectic range of linens,
tableware, homewares,
artworks, jewellery and
childrens clothing.
Everything I love is in
this shop, she said. It
is a place to fossick in. It
has evolved over the year
as Ive got to know my
clientele, but really I bring
together things I love, and
that have a story.

mix of antique and


avant-garde with
a bit of whimsy
thrown in.
The homewares, furniture
and artwork are largely
locally-made because
Gloria wants to support
local businesses and
artists.
Other goods that come
from interstate or overseas
have been chosen
because of their own back
stories. Voyage Maison,
for example, is a Scottish
family-run company that
produces cushions with
handpainted watercolour
scenes on linen matched
with local tweeds and
velvets.
A new furniture range,
Xavier, comes from

Brisbane.
Aube Nouvelle will be
the sole WA stockist for
a range of high-quality
furniture that Gloria said
was perfectly designed for
WAs climate and style.
Gloria has also started
a consultation service with
interior designer Yvonne
Mettham.
She said that in their
collaborative approach
to interior design, they
worked closely with clients
on designs suited to them
and their lifestyles, not
necessarily what was the
latest fashion.
Gloria also runs knitting,
crochet and beading
classes, crafts that have
become very popular
again, especially among
young people
Its also another way of
bringing the community
together, she said.
Grandmothers used
to teach this sort of thing.
I learnt knitting and
crocheting from my greatgrandmother.

A stroll through
medical history

Turning
kids into
foodies

A Sunday afternoon walk will


take interested people past the
art deco King Edward Memorial
Hospital and into the medical
museum, Harvey House.

Perth chef Peter Manifis has


strong ideas about what children should be eating.
Last week, Peter spent time
showing food coordinators from
several childcare centres some
delicious dishes using produce
like local kangaroo and mackerel.
There are plenty of meat
cuts and fish that are fresh and
affordable, Peter said, at the
cook-up at Unicare in Nedlands.
Kangaroo has great properties. It is lean, cheap and delicious.
Daycare centres often serve
tinned salmon from overseas
when we have local mackerel
that can be served fresh and is
cheap.
I serve mackerel in my restaurant, Incontro, and I think
children can be taught to eat
everything.
Peter said the willingness of
the childcare centre to embrace
opportunities to improve childrens health was commendable.
It is a privilege to cook for
children, he said.
Last year, more than a million
Australian children spent time
in childcare, which amounts to
a lot of meals.
At Unicare, Virginia King
and Hua Zhar, who took part
in Peters workshop, prepare
124 meals a day and put a lot
of thought into making the food
healthy and balanced.
We have chicken once a week
and soup once a week, Virginia
said. We also have vegetarian
meals, fish and mince.

Food for thought Chef Peter Manifis throws around some meal ideas with childcare chef Virginia King
for happy consumer Alessandra Rose Kelemanis from Unicare. Photo: Paul McGovern
The workshop was organised by Australasian Health
Development Network nutritionists Ros Sambell and Amanda
Devine, who provide nutrition
training in the community.
The network has developed an
online menu planning tool that
saves childcare centres time
and money.
And parents are interested too.
Karen Palmer from Unicare
said the centre had hosted a
session for nearly 40 staff who
then applied their knowledge.
This training has also resulted
in our families wanting to have
a training session themselves,
she said.

Titled Maternity and Museum,


the free See Subi on Sunday walk
on September 13 will start and
finish at the corner of Bagot and
Hensman roads at 1.30pm.
It will pass KEMH, which was
built in 1935, on the way to Harvey
House in Barker Road, which
began life as an industrial school
in the 1870s.
In 1916 it became King Edward
Memorial Hospital.
Harvey House is named after
the hospitals first matron and
became the WA Medical Museum
in 1985.
Volunteers there will give a
guided tour of the original hospital and provide an insight into
WAs medical history through the
interesting exhibits
The relaxed and informal walk
will last about 1 hours and is
suitable for all ages.

Sing some songs in Subi


Now is your chance to join
a choir and be part of a musical show all in one night.

are encouraged to head along,
make some music and be part

The workshop will run

from 6 to 7.30pm, with light


refreshments provided for all

part and the audience.
The workshop will be run by

Wilde West under the baton of
musical director Joshua Webb
and with accompanist Gavin
Nicklette.
It is all happening at the community centre on the corner of

It was an enlightening Science Week for


students at Perth Modern School as they
learnt about the science of light.
The school organised a plethora of fun science
activities, talks by experts and a science fair.
In a collaboration between arts and science,
students created holograms of objects they
had artfully designed.
Talks by a series of experts in the different
fields started with breakfast talks on particle
and theoretical physics and physics in marine
science and technology.
Other lectures centred on forensic chemistry,
astronomy, including the Square Kilometre
Array, optics and biomedical engineering and
epigenetics.
During the Science Fair, students presented
scientific research on a range of topics and
were in the running to win prizes.
Students were able to take part in a panel
discussion, speed dating with the scientists,
involving scientists in the fields of mechanical
engineering, molecular biology and geology.
Finally, students were dazzled by a mind
blowing experimental light display that showcased the scientific principles of light.
Midaiah Harnett (13) said Science Week was
an incredible opportunity to understand more
about the world around through science.
Perth Mod students are very curious and
science provides a lot of answers so it was
awesome to spend a whole week focusing on
science and how it will help revolutionise the
21st century, Midaiah said.
Perth Modern School was awarded a National
Science Week school grant that contributed
towards Science Week activities.

Small fish are the sweetest


In-between seasons can
be unpredictable and a bit
frustrating for anglers so it
may be a case of setting your
sights on smaller species.
But dont get me wrong, the
smallest fish are usually the
sweetest.
Bread-and-butter fishing
is how more than 90% of
recreational anglers cut their
teeth, and it is just like riding a bike, you never forget
how to do it.
You can rely on getting a
feed of fresh fish if you just
go back to basics and there
are always places to fish no
matter what the weather.
The Fremantle Moles are
always good platforms for
fishing for herring and skippy
and there are still a few good

An honorary father to many, Alan Earnshaw will spend Fathers Day with his
family, including son Gavin and grandson Louis.

One grandfathers
life of giving
As Fathers Day approaches,
Alan Earnshaws children are the
first to admit they think their dad
is the best in the world.
And hundreds of West Australians
would agree because for them,
hes a lifesaver.
Thats because Mr Earnshaw (88)
has a very rare kind of blood plasma
that includes an antibody that stops
babies dying from rhesus disease,
a form of severe anaemia.
He has given blood every few
months since he was in his early 20s
and has racked up hundreds of donations in more than four decades,
enabling countless mothers to give
birth to healthy babies.
Donating blood to help babies
gave me a wonderful feeling, and
it was a magnificent experience
to often have the opportunity to
nurse the baby Id donated blood
to, said Mr Earnshaw, who now
lives at Mercy Health Mont Clare.
Normally Id donate two pints of
blood every seven to eight weeks at
the WA Blood Bank, but sometimes
Id be asked to donate two pints in
a six-week period and Id always be

happy to oblige.
The most memorable time was
when my wife and I were about to
go out for a family dinner and I
received a call from King Edward
Hospital asking if I could donate
straight away and, of course, there
was no way I was going to refuse.
So we went straight to the hospital
instead of the restaurant.
When I look back now I do feel
proud of being able to help all those
babies over more than 40 years of
my lifetime. It makes me very emotional actually.
Mr Earnshaw is now a resident
at Mercy Health Mont Clare, where
service manager Jenny Jones said
Fathers Day presented the ideal
opportunity to recognise the unsung
heroes of the community fathers
like Mr Earnshaw.
She said Alan would spend time
with family on Fathers Day including his son and daughter as well as
his grandchildren.
They are understandably very
proud of him and his contribution
to the lives of other WA families
over the decades, she said.

FISHING

with Gary Shugg


tailor around at the moment
as well.
Good numbers of skippy and
silver bream can be caught in
the inner harbour at E shed
and Stirling Bridge. And it
will not be long before the
mulloway start their river run.
From October, the deeper
waters of Mosman and
Blackwall Reach should be
alive with good numbers of
mulloway because there have
already been pretty good
reports of substantial fish
being caught.
You do not really need
a boat to land these great
fighting fish, try the jetties at

Bicton, Mosman, Claremont


and Nedlands.
It is worth casting a line
along the beaches in POST
territory, with most favourite
haunts holding good numbers
of whiting, skippy, and nice
silver bream, along with
plenty of herring and a few
half-decent tailor.
City and Floreat beaches
have been fishing particularly
well over the past week or so
for bread-and-butter species.
If you happen to be lucky
enough to get out in a boat between the weather, plenty of
king george whiting are being
caught as well as squid and
herring over the weedy areas.
Remember, the smallest
fish are the sweetest, just
ask my mum.

Leschenaultia is not always blue


The Wildflower Societys
emblem, blue leschenaultia,
and its relatives in the
goodeniaceae family will
be the focus when the Perth
branch of the Wildflower
Society meets on Tuesday,
September 8.
Society member Jim
Barrow, who is also the
author of How to Enjoy WA
Wildflowers, will talk about
this varied, colourful and
almost entirely Australian
group of plants.
Many people like this group
because lots of its species
have brilliant blue flowers.
But there are also many
that are red, yellow or white,
such as red leschenaultia,
the wreath leschenaultia and
the cancer bush (Scaevola
spinescens).
Members of the family
are also very widely grown
and have been developed
as pot plants or living posies in Europe and North
America.
Meetings of the societys
Perth branch are held on the
second Tuesday of each month
in the Subiaco Community
Centre, across the road from
Crossways shopping centre in
Bagot Road.

Blue Leschenaultia is the emblem of the Wildflower Society of WA.


The doors open at 7.30pm
and the meeting begins at
8pm. You do not need to be

a member of the society to


attend, entry requiring a $2

The St Vincent de Paul
Societys annual street appeal
is on next Friday, September
11, and many volunteers will
be out and about.
US lacrosse players Evan Leeder and Brendan Murphy are helping build enthusiasm among young Subiaco
players .

Imports pass on passion for lacrosse

Two US players are boosting


the standard of play and providing support for local junior
coaches at Subiaco Lacrosse
Club.
The club recruited Brendan
Murphy from New York State and
Evan Leeder from Pennsylvania,
both fresh from success in the
competitive US National College
Lacrosse League.
Subiaco vice-president Andrew
McTaggart said the move was
part of a strategic plan to help
junior coaches with their skills.
In Perth, we play in our own

little bubble, but outside here


lacrosse is a massive international sport, Andrew said.
Through the American boys,
our junior players and coaches
are getting a window into the
international lacrosse world
and can see the level at which
lacrosse can be played.
He said that as a specialist
junior coach, Brendan was able
to engage young people.
Brendan was so passionate to
get to Australia after graduating
from college that he resorted
to crowd-funding to raise the
necessary finances.

I was a little nervous as I had


heard that people from American
get a bit of stick here, Brendan
said. But the people Ive met
so far have been real friendly.
The kids are really enthusiastic and it seems that part of
the Australian character is to
always give things a go.
The two men are visiting
schools to run coaching clinics
and also hold after-school clinics
at Rosalie Park.
For more information, call
Brendan on 0448 132 020 or Evan
on 0484 346 053.

St Vincent de Paul CEO Mark


Fitzpatrick said the money
raised would go towards providing emergency relief and support to families and individuals.
The society responds to welfare needs in the community by
way of food, clothing, furniture
and financial assistance, Mr
Fitzpatrick said.
Last year, Vinnies provided
emergency relief to around
40,000 people in WA.
With a high cost of living and
increases in the cost of utilities,
we are experiencing a higher
number of people struggling
financially so we are hoping
West Australians will give what
they can.
Some local places where
you can look for volunteers

include Rokeby Road, outside


Woolworths in Subi Square,
at the Park Street entry of
Coles Subiaco, Coles West
Leederville, Bunnings at Home
Base, and Subiaco railway
station.

Inverarity at the Grove
Former cricket selector and Hale School
principal John Inverarity will talk about
his life of cricket and teaching at the Grove
on September 8.
Despite being an Australian cricket player
and then Cricket Australias chairman of
selectors from November 2011, John says he
has always regarded himself as a teacher.
Education is his main interest and commitment.
He has had a long teaching career and was
Hale principal from 1989 to 2002.
Not attracted to the prospect of retirement,
he is channelling his energies into Teach
for Australia, which runs parallel to Teach
First in the UK.
John will be interviewed from 10 to 11am.
The audience will be invited to join in
the discussion.
Contact Westcoast Community Centre on
9286 8676 or email westcoastcommunity@
gmail.com if you would like to attend.

O to the national championships are, front from left, Zoe Shanahan (Shenton College), Millie McCarthy (PLC), Holly Halliday (St
Stephens), Caitlin Watts (MLC) and, back from left, Molly Norrish (St Marys), Ruby Hamilton (Shenton College), Tahni Geer (Ocean
Reef SHS), Olivia Basso (Ocean Reef SHS), Emma Bond (St Marys) and Natasha Oberman (Churchlands SHS).

Girls to take on Australias best

The under-14 girls


Perry Lakes Hawks team
have won their way to the
national basketball championships.
In an incredible 2014-15
season, they have won their
2014 Basketball League
Championship, the 2014
State Championship and the

2015 Challenge Cup.


Their success means
they have now qualified
to play in the Australian
National Championships in
NSW, where they will play
against the most talented
under-14 basketball teams
in Australia.
Most of the girls have been

playing together for the past


three years, topped up with
three new players this year.
For the past two seasons
they have been coached by
Georgia Clarke, who plays in
the state basketball league.
The Perrry Lakes Hawks
are based at the Bendat
Stadium in Underwood

Avenue.
They will fly out to
the championships on
September 26 and need to
raise $35,000.
The girls have been fundraising since January but
would welcome donations
from basketball-loving
people.

Cottesloe Primary Kindergarten

the children.
Kindy is all about stretching

This wild encounter was a way
to experience something new and
to expand personal boundaries in

a supportive environment.
Mrs Creedon said that though
kindy was optional, it was a very
important school year.
Kindy helps children to develop
language and to learn to interact
with peers and adults in a range of
play and more formal situations,
she said.
She said at Cottesloe it was
integrated with the rest of the
primary school, with access to all
the schools facilities, including
the library.

Coppelia gets the Degas look


SARAH McNEILL

When Coppelia was first


staged in Paris in 1870, the
ballet perfectly reflected
Parisian cultural life.
It was a world of
Impressionist painters, like
ballet-loving Edgar Degas,
popular bal-musette music
and comic opera.
Europe was on the cusp
of the Franco-Prussian war
and people were fleeing
persecution to settle in the
New World.
It is in this era that

Queensland choreographer
Greg Horsman has set his
new version of Coppelia for
a co-production between
Queensland and WA ballet
companies.
He has moved the action
from its original setting in
the 18th century Austrian
Empire to Hahndorf in
South Australia, around the
same time that the ballet was
conceived.
Greg first visited Hahndorf
in 1986 and was inspired
to move the ballets story
to this town, settled mainly

by German migrants. His


research showed that many
children and adults had been
lost in transit to their new
homes and this fuelled the
idea that Dr Coppelius might
invent an animated dancing
doll, Coppelia, in an attempt
to re-create a lost daughter.
People in the second half
of the 19th century were
fascinated by automata, moving
machinery and puppets.
Writing an introduction
to WA Ballet Companys
production of Coppelia,
music lover and arts

researcher Alan Dodge says


automaton makers, like
Frenchman Pierre JaquetDroz and Swiss mechanic
Henri Maillardet, created
dolls that were able to draw
pictures and write poems.
By the time the ballet
Coppelia was created, there
were many family-based
firms making automata in
Paris, Alan said.
A comedic ballet about a
beautiful, life-sized dancing
doll was bound to be popular
in 1870 Paris.
Choreographed by Arthur

Saint-Lon, with Charles


Nuitters libretto based on E.
T. A. Hoffmanns fairy tale,
the ballet was set to music by
Lo Delibes.
Delibes was described as
a dancers composer he
attempted to do what the
new Impressionist painters
of the time were doing: make
colour matter.
Alan said: Delibes
loved colour, especially
oriental colours, and he was
inventive. He knew how to

music.
The ballets debut was
at the Thtre Imprial de
lOpra, better known as
the Salle Le Peletier, which
was the favoured theatre
of Degas, who also loved
the charm of colour and
devoted most of his time
to painting dancers, mostly
backstage or in rehearsal.
In his introduction, Alan
writes: The company was
filled with dancers taken
from the lower levels of
society, often forced into
prostitution on the side as
they were paid so little.
Most of the corps was

made up of very young


girls, known at the time
as les petits rats (the
little rats), who spent their
lives in rehearsal rooms
being ogled by men in top
hats and fur coats who
were prospects for added
income.
This is a new world version of one of the oldest
ballets still performed.
The WA Ballet presented
Chrissie Parrotts cheeky
1950s version of Copplia
in 2007. This new production of Copplia, which
premiered in 2014 with
Queensland Ballet, is the
second of two new cocommissions for the two
companies.
Coppelia will be
performed at His
Majestys Theatre from
September 11 to 26.

a universal question is
progress financial or

or place?
In her play, The Fever

aYawuru woman, looks
at progress from the

Against a background of
around 1.5million tonnes
of ore a day being hauled

looks at one small family
and what mining means for
the people living on that
ground.
In what Jub describes as

Jub wrote the play
as part of an Australian

a stand-out, he said.
The story begins in the
1980s and travels through
to current day.
This is a family on

They have suffered,

even celebrated it.
Progress is part of
all our narratives in this
country, and particularly in
this state, and we need to
look at the results and the
repercussions.
Jubs thoughts
on contemporary
Aboriginality are beautiful
and poetic.
It is not our place to say
what is right or wrong. Its
our job, in the theatre, to
throw up the conversation.
Lets talk about it.
Kyle said Yirra Yaakin

80s music icons


still grooving

Performer Cat Hope is delighted an archive of new music is being built up at the state library, which is hosting a series of
new music concerts.

New music saved for posterity


The state library will host
a series of free lunchtime
concerts to showcase new
music.
Composer Cat Hope, an
associate professor at Edith
Cowan University, was
instrumental in establishing
a project for the library to
record new music as part
of its collection.
The state library has a
comprehensive collection
of music in scores, records
and CDs, Cat said. But a
lot of new electronic music
doesnt have a score, or
its hard to understand the
notations. Most new music
needs to be performed to
make sense of it.
The library combined
with Tura New Music and
Edith Cowan University
to develop the WA New

Music Archives.
Students from the
music program at the WA
Academy of Performing
Arts are performing new
music live in the library,
partly to make new WA
music accessible to a wide
audience, and partly to
allow recording of the
music.
Students are now
encouraged to record their
new work, said Cat, who
was an independent artist
for many years, composing
and performing her own
new music.
She said the library
performances were an
opportunity for emerging
composers to have their
music performed outside
WAAPA, and to road-test
it in a public space.

STEVEN SHER

Did you know the expression jet black comes from


fossilised wood found in
Whitby in Yorkshire?
Jet is found in seams of
shale, some of which extend
under the sea. Pieces often
break away in bad weather
to be washed up on the
shore.
The manufacture of jet
jewellery in Whitby began
in the early 1800s and
gained world prominence at
Londons Great Exhibition
in 1851.
When Queen Victorias
husband, Prince Albert,
died in 1861, the nation
was plunged into mourning.
It was decreed that the
Queens court had to
wear black and the public
followed suit for many
years.
As a result, the demand
for jet jewellery grew
significantly and, at its
peak, around 1400 people
connected to the industry
were employed in the small
town of Whitby.
By the 1880s, the mourning
code had relaxed and the
jet industry had declined
considerably.
Jet jewellery is still made
today and you can find
pieces of jet on the beach
in Whitby.
And jet was not just an
ornament of mourning

black jewellery was the


height of fashion and worn
for its beauty and sentiment.
Amazing skill is needed to
carve and polish jet.
It is light in weight, so
large pieces could be worn
comfortably. Its still very
fashionable to wear jet
today, with black always
in vogue.
Be careful not to confuse
Whitby jet with French jet,
which is basically black
glass. You can tell the
difference because the glass
is brittle and cold to touch.
Jet may induce an electric
charge when rubbed and
is sometimes referred to
as black amber because
amber does the same thing.

Paul Young led a new genre


called blue-eyed soul

Most would like to forget


the fashion of the 1980s,
but who can forget the
music?
Coming hard and fast
out of the disco-andglitter-ball era, the 80s
saw the emergence of an
exceptional range of music
and singer songwriters who
have stood the test time.
AC/DC, Queen, and
Culture Club made their
mark, as did singersongwriters Michael

Fast food gets a healthy spin


David Kane would
like to revolutionise the
fast-food industry. And
the way he plans to do
that is with his own-made
soups.
David lives and works
around Fremantle and
said he was frustrated by
the lack of healthy takeaway food options for
lunch.
I was sick to death
of sandwiches, burgers
and kebabs, David said.
And unless you want a
full-blown meal, we are
extremely limited to what
is on offer.
So he started making
soup.
David has always been a
passionate amateur cook.
He has six sisters and
soup was always a family
favourite as a quick,
healthy option.
Encouraged by friends
and family, David started
a pop-up gourmet soup
bar called Suppa Club,
and asked for a stall at the
Subiaco Farmers Market.
They said they were
full, but liked the idea of
home-made soup so much
that I had a stall within a
couple of weeks, David
said.
To get the business
up and running in
a whirlwind couple
of weeks, he hired a
commercial kitchen at
Mantle in Fremantle
and worked well into the
night making up a range
of his own recipes to suit
vegan and vegetarian
palates, refining classic
soup recipes and creating
hearty meat options.
Davids pop-up Suppa
Clubs at Subiaco and
now South Fremantles
Growers Green markets
have become a success.
Its great seeing people
line up for healthy food,

A gift that keeps on giving


The Gift (M)

REVIEW: PIER LEACH

One thing that can be


said about The Gift is that
it keeps on giving not
just for the full length of
its absorbing 108-minute
running time but for
hours after, as its lingering
creepiness continues to
make you shudder.
Its the feature directorial
debut of Joel Edgerton,
who also wrote and stars,
and is a taut psychological
thriller that on one hand
delivers a series of jump
scares but on the other
offers the kind of nuance
and intelligence rarely seen
in stalker films.
One of its great strengths
is the manner in which
Edgerton shifts audience
perception, tipping the
scales of empathy between
characters until virtually

It is creepy stuff, as the audiences perception of the characters played by Rebecca Hall,
Jason Bateman and Joel Edgerton keeps shifting.

nothing is clear-cut.
It starts out with an
amiable, upwardly mobile
couple, Simon (Jason
Bateman) and Robyn

(Rebecca Hall), buying a


house in the Los Angeles
hills, having just moved
from Chicago. Its Simons
hometown; hes just landed

a new job while Robyn is


easing back to work after a
miscarriage.
By chance, while theyre
out furniture shopping, they

bump into a man named


Gordo (Edgerton) who
went to school with Simon
but whom Simon does not
initially recognise. The next
day he drops by, leaving a
gift on the doorstep, and
slowly starts insinuating
himself into their lives.
While Robyn
tentatively likes him,
or at least his gestures,
and empathises with
his social awkwardness,
Simon remembers him
more clearly Gordo the
weirdo and wants the
acquaintance cut off.
Thats when things start
getting overtly creepy,
especially for Robyn,
and a chance discussion
compels her to start
investigating just what kind
of relationship her husband
had with Gordo in high
school.
Apart from playing
Gordo with a kind of meek
sweetness mixed with a

What the critics are saying


Me and Earl and the Dying Girl
(M)

What begins as a spirited but safely


familiar pastiche of John Hughes
and Wes Anderson is compelled
to become its own thing, GomezRejons film embracing the most tired
tropes of stereotypical YA weepies
so that it can kiss them goodbye,
says Time Out New York. The New
York Observer agrees: Me and Earl
and the Dying Girl treats a serious
subject with wackadoodle humour
that is endearingly contagious.
Its tender, clever, wise and highly
recommended.

Straight Outta Compton (MA15+)

Rolling Stone says Compton would be


better if it didnt sidestep the bands
misogyny, gay-bashing and malicious
infighting but what stands is an
amazement, an electrifying piece of
hip-hop history that speaks urgently
to right now. The Guardian semiagrees: The first half of Straight Outta
Compton, F Gary Grays two-and-ahalf hour opus about the birth of west
coast gangsta rap, is bursting with
energy, exuberance and inspiration.
The second half is immobilised by
bloat and sanctification.

We Are Your Friends (MA15+)

The feature debut of director


Max Joseph can occasionally be
as entrancing and euphoric as
the pulsating dance songs on the
soundtrack. But even an empathetic
performance from Zac Efron (and an
impressive, nuanced turn from Wes
Bentley) cant distract from a movie
that mistakes surface flash for probing,
zeitgeist-y insights, says Screen
International. Rolling Stone reckons
The clichs tick off with metronomic
regularity in a film that panders to
formula instead of exploding it.

Average star ratings

steely-eyed creep factor,


Edgertons real coup is
landing Bateman and Hall
as the central couple.
Bateman, usually the
sweet, funny, slightly
ineffectual guy (Arrested
Development, Identity
Thief), plays superbly
against type, while
Hall (Frost/Nixon, The
Town) gives Robyn a
complexity that only adds
to the perplexingly blurred
character lines.
Edgertons strength
is writing wonderfully
flawed, complex
characters, as we saw in
the last film he wrote, the
excellent and underrated
Australian drama Felony
(directed by Matthew
Saville).
Thats the strength of
The Gift. Despite some
too-obvious manipulations,
he has crafted a fine,
thorny thriller that sticks
with you.

Every year, the Comit
Interprofessionnel des Vins de
Champagne sets a maximum yield
that is designed to control quality
and output from the French region.
Like the Pink Floyd album of the same name, The Wall is a concert film that
is also intensely personal.

Documenting
history of our times
Two epic pieces of modern history
are committed to documentary film
in The Wall and How to Change
the World.
The Wall is a concert film in which
Roger Waters, co-founder and primary songwriter of Pink Floyd, fuses
the public and the personal.
Written and directed by Waters
and Sean Evans, it is based on
Pink Floyds ground-breaking
concept album, The Wall, and
embarks on an intensely personal
road trip that deals with the loss
Waters has felt throughout his life
due to war.
Screening at Luna Leederville
and Luna on SX in Fremantle
as part of a worldwide screening
event at 8pm on Tuesday,
September 29, the film is followed
by a recorded Q&A called The
Simple Facts, in which Waters and
his Pink Floyd band mate Nick
Mason are reunited to answer
questions submitted by fans from
around the world.
The other piece of history,
How to Change the World, will

screen for a limited season at Luna


cinemas and is a real-life thriller
about the pioneers of Greenpeace.
Jerry Rothwells self-described
hippie heist movie chronicles the
fledgling days of Greenpeace, from
its beginnings in the early 70s,
as a group of friends sail a boat
into the maelstrom of a nuclear
test zone in Alaska, capturing
the worlds attention, through its
internal struggles and politicking
as the movement grew into an
international phenomenon.
With extraordinary, neverbefore-seen, mint-condition 16mm
footage from the archives and
personal collections of seminal
figures, How to Change the World
presents a character-rich rendering
of how a disparate group of hippies
ascended to an iconic activist
movement.
Its score includes numbers from
Pink Floyd, Leonard Cohen, Joni
Mitchell, Brigitte Bardot and
Canned Heat.
It screens for a two-week
season at Cinema Paradiso from
September 17.

Drought in Champagne
set in at the end of May
this year and left the vines
short on water, resulting in
slow growth. This will see a
reduction in wine volume,
and so a lower maximum of
10,000kg per hectare has
been set, with an additional
500kg per hectare being
allowed to be released from
the reserve.
Reserve wines are a
fascinating aspect of
champagne production.
Reserve is the term used for
still wines held in reserve
at the end of primary
fermentation. This wine can
be used by a chef de cave
(winemaker) at a future time
of their choosing.
The wines are stored in tanks,
barrels or, in the case of
Bollinger, en magnum.
Reserve wines serve several
purposes. Firstly, their
addition to a blend can
contribute texture, depth
and richness. By choosing
wines that have particular
characteristics, the chef de
cave can smooth out the
vagaries of the vintage.
For example, reserve wines
kept from a warm and
therefore ripe year such as
2003 may be contributed
to wines from cooler years
with reduced ripe fruit
characteristics.
Reserve wines also provide

insurance against extreme


weather events that can affect
the yields of vineyards frost,
hail and other damaging
events.
A winery with a large bank of
reserve wines can ensure that
its production is not severely
hampered by unexpected
weather events.
In July 2013, a hailstorm
wreaked havoc on the
vineyards around Epernay,
where Pol Roger is produced,
and the Cote des Blancs.
Some vineyards had extensive
damage and lost up to 30%
of their yields a costly night.
It was estimated that more
than 300ha of vineyards
were completely destroyed in
that storm, and up to 3000ha
were badly affected.
For wineries that had a
large stock of reserve wine
in the bank, the financial
cost of the storm could be
reduced, however for wineries
producing all that they grew,
or bought, there could be little
insulation against this scale of
damage.

Home fit for a hobbit

A spectacular colonial estate built for a wine merchant and politician is for sale
just outside Adelaide.

Fancy the aristocratic life?


Despite the efforts of a few jumpedup sheep farmers in the late 19th
century, Australia has never really
embraced the idea of an Australian
aristocracy. Had the idea got off
the ground, however, you can be
sure than an Australian house of
lords would be stacked to the brim
with South Australians. Prominent
families like the Playfords and
the Downers have made SA their
home since before Federation, so it
shouldnt be that surprising to find
a 131-year-old English mansion in
the Adelaide Hills. Built for wine
merchant and politician Sir William
Milne in about 1884, Eurilla boasts
2ha of manicured formal gardens,
a stable and a palatial main residence. The five-bedroom property
is listed for an undisclosed price by
selling agents Nathan Casserly and
Victoria McGregor-Reid, of Ouwens
Casserly Adelaide.

Lets be honest
Perths property prices are falling
and the market will remain flat
next year, according to the NABs
Australian Housing Market Report.
So what should agents tell vendors?
The truth, according to Craig
Gaspar, of Caporn Young. Honesty
is the best policy, Mr Gaspar said.
Sellers rely on agents to give them
the correct information. We are
having some difficult conversations
with sellers about what prices
they can expect in this market, but
its important to be honest. Mr
Gaspar had two scheduled auctions
last weekend: 3/16 Perina Way,
City Beach, which went under
the hammer for $785,000, and
19 Hibiscus Court, Churchlands,
which was snapped up beforehand
for $1.41million. Meanwhile
in Nedlands, a two-bedroom
apartment at 4/35 Esplanade was
sold before the auction by Adam

patterning to luxury appliances and
a breathtaking view of a ravine
adjacent to Powder Mills Park.
This is truly a wizards place, Mr
Bell said. This homes wonderland
includes a fairy er meditation
pond, complete with a running
waterfall. Theres a full kitchen that
any hobbit would be proud of, with
lots of mahogany worked in, and
a wide-open view to the woods

guessing when it was built in the
1960s and early 1970s. It was built
for a lawyer/artist couple, Robert
and Marguerite Antell.

the move ended one of the home
builders main frustrations the
need to get planning approval and
a separate building permit. It has
never been very practical to get two
approvals for the one house and
this has added a lot of time to the
process, Mr Airey said. Thankfully,
the Minister has overseen a
commonsense change that now
means a planning-compliant
single house will no longer require
approval.

Red-tape win for builders


Home building and renovation times
in WA could be cut by up to two
months thanks to a planned state
government move to slash red tape.
Single dwelling projects that already

At the other end of the desirability
scale, the Queensland home dubbed
Australias worst house has
sold at auction for $668,000. The
seriously dilapidated home on a
427sq.m block in Dutton Park, about
4km from the Brisbane CBD, fetched
$168,000 more than the reserve in
a suburb where the median house
price is $785,000. Ray Whites
Gunther Behrendt listed the home
as structurally unsafe to enter
in his online listing, but that only
heightened interest among buyers
eager to get their hands on the
valuable block. There is no way to
sugar-coat this, Mr Behrendt wrote
truthfully in the listing. More than
100 people attended the auction to
watch 25 bidders compete for the
timber home, which was built before
1946.

hen asked about the floors,


selling agent John Hunter,
of Abel McGrath, doesnt need to

Theyre Indian slate, he says,

Everybody asks about the
floors.
The rough-cut stone is an integral part of the contemporary
design, which relies heavily on
natural materials to create the
feel of a country retreat.
Timber cabinets and reedeffect wallpaper complement
the cool stone flooring, which
covers most of the main living
area and the hall.
The living area at the rear is
the centrepiece of the house,
featuring a high-end kitchen,

sunken lounge and big alfresco


terrace.
Quality finishes define the
kitchen, where rich timber and
composite stone are combined to
create a beautiful breakfast bar.
There is also a butlers pantry hidden behind one of the
cabinets.
A partition with an embedded
double-sided gas fire marks the
end of the kitchen, where steps
lead down to a dining area and
an adjoining sitting room.
The alfresco terrace overlooks
the pool at the back of the 850sq.m
block, where a limestone retaining wall and landscaped gardens
mark the boundary.
Back in the homes foyer, a
short staircase leads up to the
main suite, which is appropriately elevated over the rest of
the house.
It features a spacious bedroom
and a walk-in robe that leads to
a luxurious ensuite.

Giant road trains rumbling our way


From page 1
length of the freight link into
East Fremantle and across the
river to North Fremantle, entering Fremantle Port.
People will be horrified when
they discover road trains are
going to be driving through our
suburbs, said Kim Dravnieks,
convener of Rethink the Link,
the public campaign opposing
the freight link.
The government has been
utterly duplicitous, he said. It
goes totally against their advertising campaign at the moment.
Theyre spending a lot of
money saying that the freight
link will make it safer for you,
safer for children.
But theyre not telling people
that these huge trucks will be
on the new Perth Freight Link
with a mix of cars at a greater
speed, making it more dangerous, not less.
Traffic on the freight link, including the huge road trains, will
be allowed to drive at speeds up
to 80kmh, even around curves.
Main Roads has not yet responded to questions about what
measures, if any, would be in
place to prevent the B-triples from
following already established
freight truck routes north from
Fremantle along Curtin Avenue,
Marine Parade, Stirling Highway
and West Coast Highway.
If you want to avoid a toll, you
drive on other roads, so we can
safely say we are going to have
more heavy trucks on roads that
arent the freight link, Professor
Newman said at a public forum
opposing the freight link held in
Cottesloe this week.
He said it was highly inappropriate to have B-triples sharing

Container trucks pass in Curtin Avenue, Cottesloe.


roads with other suburban traffic, and penetrating deep into
the urban area.
It should be obvious that you
dont run any kind of B-triple
traffic through the suburbs, no
matter what measures you might
take to try to protect people
from them with walls and other
devices to separate them from
the community.
The reality is the freight link
is going to be used by substantial numbers of cars as well
as trucks, because its going
through the main urban area.
He said the sheer bulk and size
of the road trains were major
concerns on shared roads.
These road trains are significantly more dangerous in
mixed traffic because of their
size, he said.
It doesnt matter how good
their engines are, how good their
brakes are you know what a
road train is like in the country,
how hard it is to get around to
pass one.
That is what we will be
contending with en masse in
Perth now.
Chair of the Freight and
Logistics Council Fred Affleck
said he thought the B-triples
on the freight link would not
be popular.

People tend not to like big


trucks, he said.
But he said B-triples were
very safe trucks and their advent would be economically
beneficial to the port.
Its about efficient movement
of freight, and this is certainly
one of the most efficient ways
to do it, Dr Affleck said.
Professor Newman agreed that
the road trains would be highly
unpopular.
I think its the final nail in
the coffin for the Perth Freight
Link, he said.
When people realise that
these massive juggernauts are
going to be sharing our roads,
thundering through our suburbs,
theyll say this must not happen.
He agreed with Dr Affleck
that road trains would bring
a heightened cost efficiency
to freight movement, but he
said this efficiency would be
achieved only with social and
environmental costs.
This will kill off the rail option, he said.
I hesitate to say rails completely dead for the long-term
future in the outer harbour at
Kwinana, but I think B-triples
will kill off trains going to the
port in Fremantle; the trains
just cant compete.

John Hammond, president


of the Cottesloe Residents
and Ratepayers Association,
called both the freight link
and the change of law to allow
road trains on the link totally
demented.
If the multi-combination
trucks are going to come down
Curtin Avenue and Marine
Parade then that will cause severe vibrations in homes along
those streets, he said.
There are going to be greater
emissions of diesel particulate
which is a threat to health and
its going to cause substantial
noise for our area.
It will have a profound effect
on the way we recreate in our
suburbs.
People will be much less
likely to use footpaths or ride
bikes, and travelling on our roads
will become more dangerous.
What this demented plan will
do is ensure we have thousands
of road trains rumbling through
our suburb to a port that will be
in excess of capacity one year
after the unfinished link is built.
Its madness.
He agreed with Professor
Newman that the prospect of
road trains travelling on mixeduse roads through suburban
areas highlighted the need for
an outer harbour at Kwinana.
It dramatically emphasises
the need for the outer harbour
in Kwinana to proceed, he said.
We must be looking at rail to
transport freight. Using trucks is
the antiquated way of doing it.
We need to seriously look at
rail to carry freight and people
through our suburbs; thats what
the other major cities of the
world are doing.

People power
can stop Link
From page 9

Other councils all up and


down the coast are understanding whats happening.
The only council that seems
to have its head stuck in the sand
is Cottesloe.
Cottesloe mayor Jo Dawkins
said the council had resolved to
lobby Mr Barnett and Transport
Minister Dean Nalder for the
removal of heavy vehicles from
roads within Cottesloe and to
request models and costs of
alternatives to the link.
Regardless of whether or
not the Perth Freight Link goes
ahead, residents in Cottesloe are
concerned about the increasing
volume of heavy trucks on Curtin
Avenue, Mrs Dawkins said.
Cottesloe councillor Jack
Walsh said the council did not
have a strong position on the
link, but offered his views as a
resident.
Environmentally, the Perth
Freight Link is a disastrous
proposition which will destroy
wetlands and threaten the
health of the community due
to the huge increase in diesel
particulate emissions, which are
known to cause cancer and heart
and lung conditions, he said.
Also, lets imagine the impact
on Cottesloe during those years
of construction, when the roads
in the south end of Cottesloe
are all under construction and
the traffic is really jammed up.
It will have a lasting detrimental effect on the amenity
and lifestyle of the Cottesloe
community.

Why Coast ward ratepayers are taking Cambridge council to court


From page 36
instead labelling us NIMBYs
and so on.
A sad day for democracy in
Cambridge.
Some would have you believe we are about pushing
density into other areas; that
is not the case.
We understand that the
state governments policy
regarding infill means our
suburbs are not immune to
change and infill, but they
need to be achieved sensibly,
with due regard to character
and amenity.
This is about what is right
for these suburbs to preserve
their character for our and
future generations.
This is about taking time to
make sure we get things right.
In normal circumstances, a
council would have listened
to ratepayers, engaged with
them and worked collaboratively to achieve an acceptable outcome.
But in this case, circumstances that unfolded were
anything but normal.
Worries about process were

at the outset brought to the


councils attention.
When they were ignored,
they were raised with Local
Government Minister Tony
Simpson.
We had comprehensive
advice from a prominent
law firm and a legal opinion
from a QC.
Mr Simpson and his department refused to investigate
our worries, saying they had
no responsibility to act.
These concerns are now
the subject of the legal proceedings.
We have also met Planning
Minister John Day, WA
Planning Commission representatives and Premier Colin
Barnett.
As no one in government
has been able to allay our
concerns, and given that any
application for a judicial
review of a decision must be
brought within six months
of its being made, we were
left with no alternative but
to preserve our legal rights
and begin legal proceedings
against the council.
The decision was not taken

lightly and it is with a heavy


heart that we began proceedings against our own council,
whose elected members are
supposed to represent ratepayers interests.
We would also like to take
this opportunity to thank

everyone in our community


and beyond for their generous support, and Churchlands
MP Sean LEstrange for his
support to date.

Cottesloes civic centre.


His wife Catherines father,
Charles Murphy, was mayor
for seven years, and Catherine
has been a councillor.
He said he was concerned
about cyclist and pedestrian
safety, the much-complainedabout public toilets below
Indiana, and other foreshore
issues.
I dont send my kids in
there, Mr Rodda said about
the Indiana toilets.
Eventually we also have
to deal with the congestion
at Jarrad Street.
Id like to be on the inside
and understand the issues.
Mr Rodda ducked a ques-

tion on whether Premier and


Cottesloe MP Colin Barnett
did a good job for his suburb.
In many ways hes in a
difficult position, Mr Rodda
said.
Especially in the current
climate, where he could be
criticised for spending too
much on his electorate.
Mr Roddas children go to
Cottesloe Primary School,
Presbyterian Ladies College
and Christ Church Grammar
School.
He is chairman of the primary schools board, has been

sub-committee when he was

Kill City of Perth Bill, says Claremont


From page 7

other cities on the world stage,


Mr Goode said in his report.
The Bill does almost nothing to achieve such ideals.
Mr Goode said the Bill
would not give Perth any new
powers.
The state government has
clearly held the planning and
infrastructure power to itself,
which would be a significant
disappointment for the City of
Perth and other advocates for
the Bill, he said.
If the Bill is enacted, after
July 1 next year, council
boundaries would change to
encompass all of Kings Park
and portions of Nedlands and
Subiaco.
The only explanation for
the annexation of these lands

has been that as a capital city,


Perth should include icon
infrastructure, attractions
and facilities, Mr Goode said.
The new boundary will
draw into Perth UWA, Kings
Park, QEII Hospital campus and Hollywood Private
Hospital.
There do not seem to
be demonstrated problems
with the operation of local
government in respect to
these facilities under the
current boundaries, nor is
there any operational benefit
from annexing Kings Park
into Perth.
The much commentedupon situation of UWA having to deal with three local
governments at the moment
could as easily be addressed
by adjusting a boundary to

include it into the City of


Nedlands the most sensible
option or into the City of
Subiaco as a slightly less nonsensical option than including
it in the district of Perth.
Mr Goode said Subiaco
would lose 1347 rateable
properties with an estimated
loss in rates of $2,032,000, or
9.1% of rate revenue.
There would also be an
estimated $500,000 of lost
revenue from parking fees
and charges.
Significant revenue impacts have also been reported
by the City of Nedlands, Mr
Goode said.
He said the proposed
boundary changes were arbitrary, lacked logic and were
entirely contrary to planning
for good local government.

The fact that the changes


will rob the cities of Nedlands
and Subiaco of revenue while
leaving them with inevitable
problems simply highlights
how poor the idea is, he said.
Councillors agreed and
voted unanimously for Mr
Goodes recommendation.
Councillor Peter Edwards
said the Bill looked as though
it had been done on the back
of a napkin.
Councillor Chris Mews said:
Its another underhand move
by the state government to
disenfranchise members of
the Subiaco community.
Councillor Peter Edwards
said: This Bill really makes
no sense.
Mr Haynes said the City of
Perth had managed to wobble
on for a century without it.

From page 1

that it was there in black and white


that the state government is to
demolish and redevelop Subiaco
Oval, she said.
As a member I stood up and
asked them if the WAFC was going
to be able to make up the $15million difference that Subiaco Oval
generates for grassroots football
in this state.
They didnt like questions being
asked about football and they said
that was a matter for football.
Their response was that they
were just accommodating the
WAFC and that loss was up to the
football commission.
Ms Matheson described this as a
no-win situation and a devastating
loss for grassroots football and
Subiaco.
According to the WACA report,
the WAFC still has a 77-year lease
with Subiaco council for the Oval.
It is looking at other options
because AFL West Coast Eagles
and Fremantle Dockers matches
will move to the new Burswood
stadium in 2018.
The WAFC is now considering
alternative accommodation for its
administration and training facilities for its elite junior football and
umpires, the WACA said.
Co-location at a developed
WACA ground is one of the
WAFCs preferred relocation
options and presents some real
benefits for the WACA in terms of
sharing the ongoing maintenance

The WA Cricket Association suggests demolishing Subiaco Oval and using the money to rebuild the WACA ground.
and operational costs of the WACA
ground, potential cost efficiencies
associated with shared services
and maximising the utilisation
of the ground.
The WAFC also has a preference for a venue that is capable
of hosting the WAFL match-of-theround and finals matches.
Vacating Subiaco would also
open up purse strings for crickets
ambitions with the East Perth,
stadium the report said.
[Relocation] also provides a
strong argument for capital investment in the WACA ground, as it
would release the Domain oval site
for commercial and residential
development, the report states.
[We] have been pursuing negotiations with WAFC to develop a
draft memorandum of understanding to guide an ongoing negotiation
process.

Football bosses said they had


been in talks with cricket on a for
more than a year.
At this point in time, the WAFC
has made no decisions regarding
the location of its administration
facilities once AFL games cease at
Domain Stadium in 2018, but will
continue to examine and discuss
options, including the WACA
ground, the commission said in
a statement.
There is no agreement at the
current time for WAFL games or
finals to be played at the WACA
grounds.
In March, councillors unanimously voted to recommend the
turfed area, on which football
had been played for more 100
years, should be placed on the
state heritage list as a culturally
significant place.
Listing the 191m by 132m playing

Speed humps dumped


Speed humps in Claremonts Second
Avenue have been vetoed by councillors.
Chris Mews was the only Claremont
councillor who voted for the devices
and said they could be removed if they
didnt work.
A report proposed the cushions go in
between Graylands Road and Ashton
Avenue, after 49 residents signed a petition complaining about traffic speeds
and poor sightlines.
Its a very silly idea and Im very much
against it, councillor Karen Wood said.
She was worried about hump problems with horses in boxes during the
nearby Royal Show.
Councillor Jill Goetze said speed wasnt
an issue in Second Avenue.
Visibility and safety are, she said.
Parking bays on the crest [of the road]
would be very helpful.
The report cited Main Roads data from
2010 to last year, which showed there
were 13 crashes (two people injured,
and 11 properties damaged) between
Graylands Road and Ashton Avenue.

Nothing has changed my view that


the surface-to-air missile was supplied
by Russians to separatists, Curtin MP
Ms Bishop said.
It was an absolute bullseye it took
out the cockpit.
The atrocity on July 17 last year killed
298 people, including Scotch College boy
Mo Maslin, his siblings Otis and Evie,

Swinging voters
The swing planned for Swanbournes
Hatchett Park will be installed at its
original location.
Claremont council wanted to put it
in the northern part of the park, near
Brian Walker Lane.
But after notification letters were sent
to neighbours, one resident suggested
the swing go closer to Devon Road.
More letters were sent. Most of the
replies went with the original location.
The people have spoken, councillor
Karen Wood said at Tuesday nights
meeting.
The swing, deck replacement and bin
will cost $35,000.
Im delighted to see councillor Wood

surface would have protected it


from redevelopment.
But last month, the day after
Subiaco councillors held a
workshop about the future of
the oval and grounds, they were
told the heritage push could be
in trouble.
A number of things have happened with this nomination that
indicated a very likely political
resistance to this nomination, a
senior council source told councillors.
Councillor Mark Burns who
moved the motion to heritage
list the oval said the WACA announcement proved why it needed
to be protected.
This is exactly what I had envisioned, he said.
Mr Barnett wishes to sell it
and listing it interferes with that
process, he said.
We need to be fighting the State
Heritage Office via public support
to list the oval or our involvement
in its future is over and done with.

Ms Bishop was asked if the people

justice.
I believe so if the international

Ms Bishop said Russia had vetoed a
tribunal.
Thats not the end of it, she said.
There are other options.
The best would be the United Nations

Ms Bishop said she was deeply concerned with Russian president Vladimir
Putins territorial aspirations.
Sanctions are hurting, but Putin has
an extraordinary way of presenting
Russias woes as the worlds fault.

Five on the list


Five people will be interviewed for
the job as Christ Church Grammar
Schools next principal.
Methodist Ladies College principal
Rebecca Cody is on the panel examining the candidates.

This action starts with us.


In his response to the email,
Mr Hill said there was clear opposition to what would have been
open discussions ... that could
bring a fresh and open mind to
the apparently long-standing yet
unresolved issues.
The situation has been discussed with [acting mayor Scott
Arbuckle] and while other options
were considered, I have taken the
decision to defer indefinitely any
meeting with Wilson Parking.
Wilson last week described
councillor Mark Burns psychopath comments as unprofessional,
inaccurate and damaging.
It said it had a long-standing
and successful contract with the
council and that it looked forward
to working with Subiaco.
Mr Arbuckle said: I would
prefer a more collegial approach
but at the end of the day we need
to move forward and the CEOs
determination has been pragmatic
and appropriate.
Mr Hill said it seemed now that
Wilsons only option to deal with
the council would be to make a
public statement at the start of
a committee or council meeting.
Meanwhile the high-profile spat
over the 46 council parking bays
in the Wilson carpark in Seddon
Street looks set to escalate.
Councillor Lee Hemsley will
put forward a motion later this
month to sever all commercial
links with Wilson.
Mr Hemsley said Subiaco
council occasionally used Wilson
Security, the same company which
subcontracts to Transfield Services
at the processing centres on Nauru
(since 2012) and Manus Island
(since February 2014) as part of
a more than $2billion contract.
There have been a string of
serious sexual and abuse allegations against asylum seekers and
detainees on both islands involving
Wilson staff at the centres.
Other allegations include claims
by former Nauru guards that
Greens Senator Sarah Hanson
Young had been spied on at the
island.

Austin Robertsons sporting

Cruise control

Fremantle midfielder
Michael Barlow is one of the
nice guys of football and has
been playing football brilliantly
since he was plucked out of the
VFL at the ripe old age of 23.
Hes always struck me as a
thoughtful sort of bloke: no tatts,
no weird hairdo, no embarrassing dickhead behaviour, no police chases -- just a good honest
footballer, fighting back after
having his leg smashed a few
years back in a horrible way and
giving every ounce of his being
for his team.
I asked Fremantle for an
interview with Barlow, but my
request was declined.
Why? I asked. Well, Freos
media guy said, he was subbed
two weeks ago.
Sure, I said, but he played well
again last week and, in any case,
I wasnt planning to interview
him about his form.
Who made that decision?
I asked.
Chris Bond [Freos football
manager], he replied.
So, no chinwag with Michael
a great shame, because hes a
very special player with quite a
story to tell.
He goes about his football like

a good sheepdog. No fuss, no


barking, no drama; and while
everybody else is faffing about,
all the sheep get rounded up and
deposited in the pen.
How did he do that without
us noticing?
How does he always seem to
be cruising? He doesnt look
fast and maybe he isnt. He just
seems to be one of those blokes
with an in-built radar, because
he always knows how to track
the ball.
Or maybe hes a magnet, and
the football just follows him.
Some players just know how
to read the play. These special
men do not have to learn or be
told where to go; they just turn
up where the ball happens to
be, without any rhyme or reason.
They always have the time,
and never hit the panic button.
Barlow is a bit like Guy
McKenna and Collingwoods
Scott Pendlebury, who also have
that special gift of never appearing hurried.
Hell hate me for saying it, but
my great mate from Subiaco FC
days and beyond, Wally Martin,
was another of those gifted
players who seemed to have an
in-built computer to calculate
where the ball was going next.

A real puzzler for WA sides


Every year, the last round
of the home-and-away season
throws up interesting issues
as teams jostle for position
and coaches and players hope
for the last-gasp performance
that might put ink on a new
contract.
This year, two really fascinating situations involve our WA
teams, and sorting them out
is trickier than doing Rubiks
Cube!
Pretty much everybodys
been happy that the Dockers
are resting as many as half
their wounded heroes from the
game in Adelaide this weekend, so theyll be cherry-ripe
for next weeks historic home
qualifying final.
But spare a thought for their
opponents, Port Adelaide.
Theyll finish ninth if they
win, but as low as 12th if they
lose, and while Im not saying
theyd ever tank to be beaten
and get better draft picks, its

a bit unfair if the other side


is allowed to, in effect, sit on
the grass and knit a purple
scarf while Port is forced to
run rings around them as if
nothing strange had happened.
I reckon the fair thing to
do would be to give Port the
same selection latitude that
Freo gets.
That gives them a chance to
test out some of their fringe
players and may give us a
more interesting spectacle.
Now, what an interesting position the Eagles are in. Youd
have to say that they will roll
over the top of the Saints and
secure second spot and a home
quarter-final, but is that actually the best thing for them?
Theyll almost certainly play
the Hawks then.
Win that, and the world is
their oyster.
But lose and the Hawks
are about as far from easybeats as you can get and they

have a danger home game


against a team like Richmond
or Adelaide, and then have to
front up to, probably, a rested
Freo in the prelim.
Whereas, if they lose to the
Saints and finish fourth, theyll
play Freo in the first round
with an extra day to recover
and no home-ground advantage
to either side and perhaps
theyd have a better chance
of going straight through to a
home preliminary final, more
than likely against the Swans.
So if the Eagles suddenly
found half their team had
come down with a mystery
flu virus and had to miss the
Saints game, that might not
be the worst thing thats ever
happened.
Its as hard to work out which
is the best path to what would
be an incredible Grand Final
appearance as it is to get all
the same coloured squares on
each side of that damn cube!

Thats real entertainment, folks


West Coast Eagle J-J-J-Josh
K-K-K-K-Kennedy has won the
Coleman Medal.

All talent and no fuss Michael Barlow.

Hallelujah.
With less emphasis on the
do I or dont I? this season,
Kennedy looks a different
player when shooting for goal.
In previous seasons, with his
stuttering approach, he looked
more like a drunken sailor walking the plank.
I actually found the Kennedy
shuffle entertaining, and the
Eagles faithful approved of it
wholeheartedly as well and
isnt that what our footy is really all about, entertainment?
These days, our football is a
full package of entertainment.
Lets take the stars of it all
the players and the various

trends in player appearance


on show every weekend.
Like society in general, theres
an ever-increasing number of
fashion statements.
Young (and not so young)
footballers use their skins as
canvases with terrific, grotesque
or melancholy graffiti.
It bobs up everywhere, led
by the flag bearer, the tattoo
supremo himself, Dane Swann.
I wonder sometimes where all
the ink starts and finishes with
Swanny. He looks like a map
of a Sydney inner-city suburb.
And what about bald heads
and beards?
Some of the bearded lads look
straight out of an early 1900s
Fremantle Derby.
J-J-J-Josh K-K-K-Kennedy
would blend into an old sides

black-and-white photographs
like he belonged.
And why, I ask (as I pamper
every remaining hair follicle
with expensive shampoo to try
to keep whats left from falling
out), do some of our young tyros
shave their heads?
Does it make them run faster?
There seems to be an increasing number of our football gladiators shaving off their youthful
locks like Gary Ablett junior.
Perhaps it is both a fashion
statement and a tactic to catch
the eye of the umpires when
Brownlow Medal votes are cast:
three votes for the bald guy, two
for the chap with red hair, and
one for the bloke with the beard.
Maybe J-J-J-Josh will win both
the Coleman and the Brownlow?

Wives and lovers in the sporting arena


The hue and cry about WAGS
(wives and girlfriends) being
on a cricket tour was a bit of
a giggle.
For a couple of weeks after
the disastrous Ashes series,
the chorus of leave the WAGS
at home sounded like Johnny
Cashs hit, Dont Take Your Guns
to Town complete with the same
dire consequences.
This probably happens in other
sports womens and mens
where sex the night before the
big match is taboo.
That admonition went about
in my football days, but if the
players were listening, very few
heard anything.

Though abstinence was recommended the Friday night before


a big match, my former coach
Haydn Bunton had a peculiar
take on it, saying Thursday was
the night to be avoided.
Maybe I should interview him
about why I never thought to
ask him.
To be fair, its different for
Test cricketers, who are away for
months and send text messages
every second night promising
they love her forever and will
make up for everything the second they get home.
Even home from a tour, they
often have time only to say hello
to the wife, pat the kids on the

head and get the grass stains of


the creams before theyre off to
yet another continent to do it all
over again.
Even when the Australian
team plays at home, its constant
travel around the country, even
immediately after theyve played.
You have to wonder whether
WAGS know what they are getting into when they sign on the
dotted line to share their lives
with a cricketer.
Back in the Bradman era,
rumour had it that only the Don
was permitted to take his wife
on tour.
It might have had something
to do with the mountain of runs

he scored, but I believe other


factors came into play with him.
I spent 20 years following
cricket tours interstate and
overseas, and wives were never
encouraged along. I know many
players some of the biggest
names in cricket found having
their wives around took their
minds off the job at hand.
And you didnt have to be
Nostradamus to predict that
having some players wives there
and others not split the ranks.
The problem didnt always revolve around good old-fashioned
nooky.
I can recall Allan Border
telling me one morning in

Birmingham that the previous


night, hed investigated a noise
outside his hotel room to find his
wicketkeeper, Wayne Phillips,
walking up and down the corridor comforting his crying
daughter.
It was 2am, and Wayne was not
out overnight.
AB was having none of it, and
in 1989, wives were not allowed
on tour until the boys had regained the Ashes.
I am not sure if theres a policy
about husbands, boyfriends and
lovers, but our womens side won
its Ashes series against the Poms,
so maybe the girls could give the
boys a few pointers!
