The CCC case against Lisa Scaffidi


By BRET CHRISTIAN
Perth lord mayor Lisa
Scaffidi has been called evasive
and contradictory in attempting to explain her deliberate
acts of serious misconduct,
says the Corruption and Crime
Commission.
Gifts she received could
adversely affect her honest
and impartial performance as
lord mayor of Perth, says the

She had been a councillor for
seven years before being elected
mayor in 2008.
BHP gave Ms Scaffidi and her
husband Joe an all-expensespaid $US36,826 business-class
trip to Beijing for the 2008
Olympics, including accommodation valued at $US16,000,
plus event tickets.
When given the opportunity
by staff to list the gift on the

councils register, she did not


do so, the CCC said.
She said on one occasion that
it did not have to be declared
and she did not see it as a gift.
When questioned by the CCC
she said she had forgotten, and
later claimed ignorance and
blamed the staff.
She asserted to the media that

Angry parents
take a swing
By DAVID HUDLESTON
Irate Mosman Park parents
are fighting to keep their
childrens swings and play
equipment on the verges
outside their homes.
The residents have been advised to petition the council to
change its verge policy, which
one parent was told required
a $150 application fee and $50
a week rent.
Last Tuesday night, a hastily convened delegation of
five parents addressed the
combined regulatory services

and corporate and technical


services committee meeting
for half an hour.
They were protesting against
orders the ranger had issued
them on the long weekend during school holidays to remove
the play equipment.
They said many more residents were affected but they
had only five minutes notice to
attend the meeting to protest.
Last months council meeting
went behind closed doors for
20 minutes for legal reasons to
discuss enforcing the councils
verge policy after a shipping

container had been left on a


verge for too long.
North ward councillor and
committee chair Zenda Johnson
explained the councils legal
position.
We have a policy that a permit is required ... to indemnify
the council against any potential damage claim, she said.
It is not a case of you having
to take the swing down. You
can leave it there if a permit is
obtained from the town.

SAS families live


with real stress

Will new market lack


down-market appeal?

Our three children were schoolmates of


children of SAS members during the 90s.
They, and we, were well aware of the impact
on families of tours of duty as the SAS served
in the Gulf Wars 1 and 2 and elsewhere.
Much is made in the media of the stress of
y-in, y-out work at mine sites across WA.
Such stress is barely comparable to having
ones family member at an undisclosed active
battlefront.
Helping families deal with the unknown is
largely by collegiate support by fellow residents
of Seaward Village at Campbell Barracks,
Swanbourne.
Defence Housing Australias proposal to
intrude on the privacy and security of SAS
families at Seaward Village by selling part
of it must be challenged by community representatives at local, state and, particularly,
federal levels.
Will it be?

Grant Street, Cottesloe

My heart sank when I read the latest selfcongratulatory news from the CEO of the
group organising the upcoming Subiaco street
market (Big crowd ready for biggest street
market, POST, October 3).
Organiser Evans Briers has previously said
the market will attract only the best stalls
and goods (whatever that means) and said
last week that there would be no coffee
retailers if you want to get a coffee go to
the existing retailers, suggesting that he has
no understanding of the reason for the broad
appeal of the previous markets.
It was precisely the down-market (yes,
cheap!) nature of the food, coffee and bulk
produce stalls that was so attractive.
I wonder if the organisers have thought
about how their estimate of 20,000 to 40,000
dedicated coffee drinkers will be adequately
catered for by the existing venues on Rokeby
Road.
Couple this with the inconvenience to both
stallholders and customers of a set-up and
pull-down form of market infrastructure and
I predict, reluctantly, that the new venture is
heading for an ignominious failure.

Tell MPs not to vote for Perth Bill


An informal survey earlier this
year showed that most Subiaco
South ward residents did not
want to be swallowed up by the
City of Perth.
We are at risk of being the only
people in WA to suffer a boundary change without the chance to
vote on it.
The City of Perth Bill is likely
to come before Parliament this
month.
Concerned citizens, please write

individually to all Upper and


Lower House MPs, asking them
to vote against the Bill, or at least
those aspects of it that involve
boundary change.

Truth missing
in truck fight
By LOUISA WALES
Confusion and intrigue surround the hot issue of whether or
not big trucks will be forced out
of the western suburbs and on to
the proposed Perth Freight Link.

Sounds bizarre Experimental drummer Darren Moore jams with Guy Ben-Arys brain cells as they
sit, wired for sound, in a dish.

Guys brain makes real music


By JACOB NAZROO
Can brain cells perform
live music outside a body?
Yes, apparently.
A drummer stimulated brain
cells in a dish and, embodied
in a modular synthesiser network, the cells responded to
the drum to make sounds at
the Masonic Hall on Broadway
on Sunday.
Project mastermind Guy
Ben-Ary advised the audience
to think of the perfamance as
band members watching each
other and taking cues as they
improvised on stage.
The project, cellF (pronounced self), was four years

in the making and aimed to


explore the intersection of art
and science.
CellF was supported by the
Department of Culture and the
Arts and the Australia Council
for the Arts.
Guy, a biologist, took skin
cells from his wrist and cultivated them into the brain cells
for the show.
Participating artist Nathan
Thompson said whenever
Guy handled his brain cells,
they would emit crazy noises
through the synthesiser, so
other team members had to
handle them.
Hundreds gathered to watch
Tokyo-based experimental
drummer Darren Moore jam

with the brain cells.


Darren said he had done
quite a lot of experimental
music but cellF was unique.
The cells and modular
synthesiser sat in a car-sized
metal construction shaped
like a square gramophone
to symbolise amplification
and inspired by old analogue
computers.
The shape is informed by
the process, Nathan said.
He said after four years it
was relieving to see it all come
together.
The team planned to demonstrate cellF in the eastern
states and was trying to organise a European tour.

lor Jack Walsh and councillor Sally


Pyvis asked for evidence that the
freight link would be regulated.
But on the evening of the Main
Roads presentation the council
was told that Mr Rickard could
not immediately provide evidence
that this was the case.
This led the Main Roads presenter Chris Rickard to say he
would take the question on notice.
In a subsequent email reply to Ms
Pyviss questions, Mr Rickard, who
is the Perth Freight Links stakeholder engagement manager, conceded the freight link would not be
regulated, but left the option open.
If for any unexpected reason
there is demonstrable leakage on
to alternative routes as a direct
result of PFL [and the associated]
heavy vehicle charge, Main Roads
will consider prohibiting access to
those routes, he said.
Heavy vehicle traffic through the
western suburbs will continue as it
does currently, but will be only a
small proportion of heavy vehicle
movements to and from the port.
A week after the briefing, an
altered version of the power point
presentation was on the Cottesloe
councils website.
It then said: Charges and routes
could be regulated to control leakage, thus demoting truck regulation from definite to possible.

Pragmatic,
cost-effective
legal advice and
representation.

Information being received by


local people is clouded in contradictions and apparent official
changes of mind.
The most critical local question that affects whether heavy
container trucks flood Curtin
Avenue and beyond is if the truck
freeway south of the river is to be
a regulated road.
A regulated freeway would mean
that heavy commercial vehicles
would not be allowed to deviate
from the freight link on to surrounding roads, clearing big trucks
from the western suburbs.
A Main Roads WA briefing given
to Cottesloe councillors two weeks
ago about the impact of the Perth
Freight Link on their suburb
explicitly stated it would be a
regulated road.
After the briefing, Cottesloe
mayor Jo Dawkins copied parts of
the Powerpoint presentation that
was sent to councillors and circulated a flyer to Cottesloe residents.
It reproduced Main Roads claim
that charges and routes will be
regulated to control leakage.
Leakage from the freight link on
to surrounding routes has been
predicted by the head of Main
Roads to be 42%.
Ms Dawkins flyer suggested
Cottesloe and the western suburbs
would not be adversely affected by
leakage from the nearly fivefold
increase in freight trucks predicted
to be using the freight link in the
next 30 years (Link will bring

The power to choose


when you celebrate the
Queens birthday in 2016
could be in the hands of
your local council.
While the Governor has
declared the monarchs
milestone will be celebrated on Monday, September
26, that hasnt been set in
stone for everyone.
The Department of Local
Government has written
to WA councils asking if
they have their own ideas
about when and why it
could be slotted in on local
calenders.

Local governments
may request that the public holiday be celebrated
on an alternative date of
significance within their
districts, in lieu of the date
proclaimed as the public
holiday for the rest of the
state, a recent departmental circular stated.
It said the councils
should outline the reason
for choosing alternative
dates and the consultations
undertaken.
Councils have until
December 4 to make their
cases.

More VW angst
A Volkswagen Passat was
marooned in Claremont on
Monday morning.
The car, which had a PLC
centenary sticker on the
rear window, had its back
wheels off the ground when
it ended up perched on the
wall between the Bunnings
carpark and the footpath
on Leura Avenue.
There was significant
damage to the underneath:
metal had been pulled back
as the car went over.
Did that happen as easily as it looks foot on the
accelerator instead of the
brake? a passer-by asked.
The car had Merredin
plates (Heart of the
Wheatbelt).

From the Wheatbelt to Claremont: this car was in a tight


spot on Monday.

State no-show at freight probe


By LOUISA WALES
The state government spent
more than a quarter of a million dollars spruiking the controversial Perth Freight Link,
but sent no representative to
this weeks Senate inquiry in
Fremantle to present its case
for the proposed freeway.
It paid three public relations
firms around $255,000 to sell
the plan to the public and a
further $21,000 on an advertising campaign.
Senator Scott Ludlam, who
instigated the inquiry into the

decision to commit funding to


the project, told the panel of
senators it was disappointing
no one from Main Roads WA or
the government had taken the
opportunity to pitch their plan.
One of the purposes here was
to hear from Main Roads and
hear from the government and
get their counterpoint, he said.
Throughout the eight-hour sitting, witnesses were questioned
by the eight senators.
Fremantle mayor Brad Pettitt
told the inquiry the freight link
would be only as good as its
weakest link.
He said there were numerous

weak links in the plan, chief


among which was getting the
freight traffic through the as yet
unspecified final 1.5km from East
Fremantle to the port.
East Fremantle mayor Jim
ONeill agreed the link would
put immense pressure on the
area, specifically on Stirling
Bridge.
Even at this point of time,
Stirling Bridge doesnt cope,
he said.
Its the obvious bottleneck.
Main Roads, when they
briefed our council, said that
their scope ended at the George
Hotel in East Fremantle.

It doesnt even get the trucks


to port.
Nineteenth century ports
didnt work for 21st century cities, Cole Hendrigan from Curtin
University told the inquiry.
He said the states economy
needed a purpose-built 21st
century port.
Dr Hendrigan said that if
the freight link went ahead, it
would be necessary to double
the Stirling Bridge linking East
and North Fremantle.
Getting the freight trucks
through North Fremantle to
the port would require major
alterations to North Fremantle,

he said.
Basically, to get this through
North Fremantle it looks like
youd have to destroy North
Fremantle as it looks now
around Queen Victoria Avenue,
he said.
An alternative for the final
stretch of the freeway would
be to build a massive flyover
across both the railway line
and Stirling Highway, joining
up with Port Beach Road, he
said, with an equally disastrous
impact on the Queen Victoria
Avenue precinct.

Melvista:
secret meeting

Fears property developers

Freshwaters all sold out now whats next?


By DAVID COHEN

People are moving into the


70 new Claremont homes on
Stirling Highway created by
Paul Simpson.
Building finished on Mr
Simpsons Freshwater project
in August, five years after
he submitted plans to

Claremont council.
The apartments are all sold
and settled, Mr Simpson said.
A quarter were bought by
investors, the rest are owneroccupied.
The owners are a broad
cross-section, from new professional graduates to retirees in
their final homes.

Some are country people


treating it as a city base.
The initial plans for
Freshwater on the old doctors surgery site, next to Christ
Church were for two threelevel buildings.
But they were held up for 18
months by Main Roads due to
concerns they would be on land

Its the little things...


as well as the big things
that make our lives better

resumed by the state government


for widening the highway.
The council resisted letting Mr
Simpson build five storeys in return
for pushing the buildings back,
but the plans were approved in
December 2012.
Mr Simpson said he understood
some people were used to lowdensity buildings.
People say they dont want to
leave the area, but they want something smaller, with less maintenance and better security, he said.
When it comes to council approvals, its a shame some councils reflect the perception low or
medium-rise is bad.
Mr Simpson (57) got into development when he was living in Hong
Kong and working for Sun Hung
Kai Properties, one of the biggest
property developers in the world.
I worked for them for a decade,
in transport infrastructure, Mr
Simpson said.
When I got back, I was approached by an east coast property
fund to develop a property here

for them.
That project, West One in West
Perth, started in 2004 and was finished three years later.
It is in Hay Street and has 59
apartments.
Before SHKP, Mr Simpson was
assistant to Wilson Parkings Laurie
Wilson and set up his Hong Kong
and Malaysian operations.
He said he was typical of the people looking to live in apartments.
When our two daughters moved
out, the big house [in Mosman Park)]
didnt suit my wife and me, he said.
There were very few places in
the western suburbs we could move
into an apartment.
Baby-boomers are the biggest
proportion of the population.
Their children are leaving home.
That is feeding the demand for
apartments.
He and his wife now live in a
North Fremantle apartment.

Job done Developer Paul Simpson is proud of his Freshwater project, his

Community building is an important function of any council.


Events like Christmas at Lake Monger and our new Wembley Street
Festival bring people together and strengthen our community.
So do cafs and restaurants, which is why we are promoting
redevelopment in selected areas of the Town.
People need places and events to meet each other and enjoy
themselves. Families need parks and playgrounds.
In 2010 we accelerated our shade sail installation program for
playgrounds and created 18 new dog exercise areas across the
Town. Playgrounds and dog exercise areas bring people together.
A lot has been achieved but there is still more to do.
Our council is about to become very wealthy and we will have the
opportunity to put ourselves in a very strong financial position.
This once in a lifetime opportunity must not be squandered.

Retrial ordered
for tree lopper

Bottler idea for Bali


Christine Parfitt was aiming
to save turtles in Bali, but instead is reducing the amount
of plastic used on the island.
The Cottesloe resident and
former St Hildas student is in
the running for a Telstra WA
Business Womens Award.
Christine (29) said countless
220ml plastic cups of water were
sold on Bali for five cents each.
We donate stainless steel
water bottles to Indonesian
schools, and put water dispensers in their canteens, Christine
said.
The schools purchase refills
for their dispensers, so water
is cheaper.
The canteen makes more
profit, the kids drink more
water and theres no plastic
waste.
Every Indonesian student
who gets a water bottle does
an eight-week program to learn
where plastic comes from and
why its bad for the environment.
There was also a link to
Australian schools, Christine
said.
Kids from both countries
take part in a competition to
create designs to be printed
on the bottles.
They are sold through
Australian schools, online, and
some retailers.
For every bottle bought, one
is donated to an Indonesian
student.
Christines program, called
Bottle for Botol, has seen 3000
bottles donated to Indonesia.
The first Indonesian school
we signed up had been using
840 plastic cups a week, she
said.
Christine was born in the
UK and started at St Hildas
in Year 6.

The Supreme Court has ordered a retrial of a tree lopper


acquitted of harassing a Dalkeith
couple.
Sean Robert Weinthal was
prosecuted by Consumer Affairs
after he made 16 calls over four
days to Jennifer Jones.
Six of the calls were made in an
eight-minute period; the next was
at 5.18 the next morning.
In December 2014, Magistrate
Denis Temby heard some of the
calls could be explained by poor
mobile coverage, and at least one
had been made accidentally.
In his retrial ruling, Justice Paul

Tottle said: A face-to-face conversation took place between Mr


and Mrs Jones and [Mr Weinthal].
The magistrate found that in
the course of that conversation
[Mr Weinthal] made a series of
comments which amounted to
threats of retribution and used
inappropriate language.
Justice Tottle said he was satisfied Mr Temby had misdirected

complex in Subi Centro.
One-bedroom apartments are on the developers website for $480,000, while two and
three-bedroom flats cost $580,000 and $795,000.
This brings to 34 the number of units in the
Hood Street/Roydhouse Street complex that the
government is known to have bought.
Last year the WA Housing Authoritys annual report showed it had bought 10 units in
the same block for a shared ownership scheme
(Finbar in Subiaco apartment deal, POST,

In its latest annual report, published last week,
Finbar said 42 units in the Subiaco complex
had not yet been sold.
To date, Finbar has sold $135.9milion worth
of units.
It expects sales for the Subiaco complex to
hit nearly $165million.

Towards an empty
rubbish bin
By DAVID COHEN
Imagine having nothing
in your general rubbish or
recycling bins when the truck
comes to empty them.
It can be done, say Libby
Eustance and Rebecca PrinceRuiz, who try to live by the
mantra Empty Bins, Full Lives.
The duo wants people to
sign up for a free Earth Carers
course that starts on Tuesday
and will take people beyond
the three Rs of reducing, reusing and recycling.
It is feasible to have nothing in your bin some people
achieve it but most people
who do the course end up with
less, Ms Eustance said.
The course includes time
at the Grove library and a
Mosman Park community garden, hands-on demonstrations
and a tour of a landfill and
composting facility.
If you chuck a milk carton

Guilty plea

into your recycling bin it travels a long way, Ms Eustance


said.
It gets taken to Bibra Lake
for sorting and baling and then
goes to China for roof insulation or, clothing, or to be burnt
for energy
There is another way.
Ms Price-Ruiz said parents
with kids, uni students, professionals and retirees were
among the hundreds who had
done Earth Carers courses.
They end up wishing everyone knew how to recycle
properly and where it goes,
she said.
It can be the start of a whole
new way to live.
The course takes 17 hours
and is spread over three
Tuesday evenings and two
Saturday mornings.
Nibbles are included.
To get on the course, contact

A man has pleaded guilty to


charges over rifles valued at
more than $17,000 stolen from
a Nedlands gun shop nearly
two years ago.
Clinton Paul Bisschops
pleaded guilty in the Perth
Magistrates Court on Tuesday
to one count of receiving and
one of being unlicensed to sell
firearms or ammunition.
Deputy Chief Magistrate
Jacqueline Woods heard Mr
Bisschops received 16 weapons
valued at $17,430 after the Target
Solutions shop in Loch Street
was burgled in November 2013.
They had been stolen, and
you well knew, Ms Woods said.
The court heard Mr Bisschops
had sold a Marlin repeater
rifle, a Savage bolt-action rifle,
a CZ bolt-action rifle, a Uberti
lever-action rifle and a Tikka
bolt-action rifle.
Mr Bisschops, who appeared
in court via video from Hakea
Prison, will be sentenced in the
District Court in December.

Subi ratepayers should share $40m bonanza


By RHIANNON SHINE
A Subiaco councillor has criticised the councils inaction on
the City of Perth Bill and says
it is stealing not to reimburse
ratepayers who are forced out
under the legislation.
Councillor Lynley Hewett said
the thousands of South ward
residents who could be forced
into the city of Perth should
apportion as much blame on
Subiaco council as the state
government.

Dr Hewett, a South ward resident, said Subiaco council had


denied its electors a vote on
the proposal, which is before
Parliament.
Subiaco council had the opportunity to give its electors a
chance to have a say by including
a vote with the current local government papers, Dr Hewett said.
But they refused to do so.
If passed, the City of Perth Bill
would see Perth take over UWA,
Kings Park, the QEII Medical
Centre and the surrounding

Subiaco residents.
Swept up in the new law would
be up to 3000 people, about 1500
ratepayers, who live in the section
of Subiaco south of QEII and east
of Hampden Road and Broadway.
Dr Hewett said Subiaco had
also voted not to obtain a legal
opinion on the City of Perth Bill.
The 2350 ratepayers of
Hollywood and Crawley have
paid rates to Subiaco for over
100 years, she said.
They have an investment. They
represent 17% of electors.

VOLUNTEERS recognised
at Cambridge Awards
The Town of Cambridge Volunteer Recognition Awards held earlier this week awarded four
outstanding community members for their tireless volunteering work.
The calibre of nominees was judged to be so high this year that rather than presentation of one
Club Volunteer award, three awards were presented.
The first of the Club Volunteer Awards was presented to long time Floreat Surf Life Saving Club
member and current president, Albert Iten, who has dedicated 18 years to the Club.
Since joining in 1997, Albert has had various roles at the Club including his current as president,
a position he has held for the past five years. He has always been very involved in coaching and
training nippers, cadets and senior members in surf lifesaving skills and has been an active patrol
member and patrol team captain for many years.
Earlier this year the Club awarded Albert a life membership for his valued contribution to the
Floreat Surf Life Saving Club, and he was also awarded the 15 Year National Patrol Service award.
Recipient of the second Club Volunteer Award was husband and wife team Brett and Felicity
Chivers who, between them, have dedicated 26 years to the Cambridge Scout Group.
Their journey with Cambridge Scouts began when their own children were young and they have
continued to work with new groups of children long after their own children have grown and
moved on.

Shed men take

The 130-year-old helm
salvaged from the steamer
SS Cambria has been resurrected in Royal Freshwater
Bay Yacht Club.
The Cambria was built in
Launceston, Tasmania, in
1885 and sank after hitting
rocks at the southern end of
Garden Island in March 1900.
No one at the club knows
how the helm ended up at the
club, and it has been moved
from room to room.
The WA Maritime Museum

Basil asked the Mosman

I thought it was a good

they could do.
Mike Wiggin, head of the

president of the WA Mens

some recycled jarrah in the
shed to make the plinth for
the wheel.
Originally, they wanted it
on an angle on a tripod, but
I knew that wouldnt look

It looked like it should be

The median strip could be

Cambridge council road bosses
said.
But adding cycleways along
the strip between Durston Road
and Templetonia Avenue would
increase the cost to about
$190,000, they told the community and resources committee.
The council has not earmarked any money for the
extra work and it will need to
be considered during budget
discussions for the following
year.
Records show there have
been 14 crashes in the past five
years, four at Kalinda Drive.
Staff applied the safe-system

I was hoodwinked by Defence


Housing Australias rhetoric

Langer says
Shannon left
meetings early

The public meeting on


September 20 in Allen Park,
Swanbourne, was an eye opener
on the proposed redevelopment
affecting the SAS community in
Swanbourne.
That night, I realised the
real question was why is the
Seaward Village redevelopment
proposed? and not how do we
best develop Seaward Village?
I felt hoodwinked, because I
had assumed Defence Housing
Australias (DHA) intentions
were to best serve the SAS and
their families.
Why? Because I had presumed
higher authorities would understand and protect our prestigious
troops, especially the Special
Air Service, who provide such
high-risk, high-security service,
forgoing the most basic human
need the emotional comfort
and support of being in touch
with the people they love.
Does DHA really understand
and cater for the needs of this
special group of servicemen and
their families, or is DHA using
the promise of new houses to
disguise its plan to sell prime
real estate for financial gain?
Can SAS families who are
restricted in what they can say
to us in the wider community
openly discuss their concerns
and issues with DHA, or is
there an unspoken worry that
negative or critical views

Cambridge mayoral candidate Keri Shannons latest


flyer says she has attended
every council meeting since
February 2015 and held the
town to account.
What it doesnt say is that she
left every meeting after question time which is at the start
of the meeting to the dismay
of all the councillors.
Ms Shannon is running for
mayor, but in my opinion it
looks as though she could not
be bothered to stay and listen
to how the council dealt with
its business each month.
If that is the case, it only
reinforces what many people
are saying: she is interested
in only one issue and nothing
else the council does.
Yet she is running on openness and honesty.
Alan Langer
deputy Cambridge mayor
The Boulevard, Floreat
Keri Shannon responds:
I have attended every council
meeting since February and remained
after questions many times, only to
be dismayed by what I saw.
In February, I was present when it
was suggested that councillors Sonia
Grinceri, Pauline OConnor and Rod
Bradley leave the chamber prior to the
key February vote on Amendment 31.
I was present when councillors
imposed canvas awnings on a West
Leederville resident, who wanted
security shutters after problems,
including a break-in.
I have seen enough of a council
not listening and know I could do a
better job.

may prejudice their serving


husbands?
Can DHA ignore the wider
Swanbourne community unrest
and dissent by virtue of its federal authority?
Finally, DHAs powerful
rhetoric initially stopped
me from thinking coherently
about a practical solution to
this issue. Surely renovation
to existing SAS family housing
(mostly built since the late 1980s)
would, as some SAS families
have suggested, raise housing
standards, allowing the base
to remain intact, with its own
privacy, security, 25-year-old
trees and bush.
This solution yields value:
without selling off land, there
would be space for the SAS community to expand in the future,
in its sought-after, settled and
tucked-away village base.
Dont let the rhetoric get you,
too!

Engineer drives himself


I was heartened when an experienced engineer presented
as a candidate for Subiacos
North ward, even more so
when Paul Netscher said he
was an independent with no
affiliations to a business or
developer, and that he was
now a consultant.
Mr Netscher had a long career with a South Africa-based
engineering conglomerate,
Wilson Bayly Holmes-Ovcon
(WBHO), which has several affiliated companies operating in
Australia, including Probuild.
Probuild has been associated with several big development projects in Perth.
My concern as a voter is
whether Mr Netscher still has
any professional affiliation

with or financial interest in


WHBO or any of its subsidiary
or associated companies.
John Stickle
Robinson Terrace, Daglish
Paul Netscher responds:
I havent been involved with
WBHO or its subsidiaries for four
years, and dont owe it any favours.
Some ex-workmates in South
Africa are friends who I see every
other year.
Im not linked to any company,
construction or otherwise.
Im standing independently of
other candidates and councillors,
running my own campaign with
my funds.
I can act freely in Subiacos best
interests.
Thank you John, and the other
voters whove taken time to ask
me questions.

Leave poor
Ted Smith
in peace
I am appalled at what is
happening with 81-year-old
Ted Smith, who sold his
Cottesloe home, Tukurua,
at a rock-bottom price to
one of the richest men in
Australia, Andrew Forrest
(I want to die in Tukurua,
says Ted, POST, October 3).
Clearly he has been left
overwhelmed and traumatised, and is footing a
daily bill of $2000 for late
settlement.
My heart goes out to him.
Mr Forrest, have some
compassion and release this
poor man from his contract
with you.
You can afford to buy any
house in Perth; please leave
this man in peace.

Sense is
lacking
Recent behaviour,
statements and claims
by current and hopeful
Cambridge councillors
show little common
sense.
A survey conducted
by an independent
consultant resulted
in no less than 81% of
respondents against
Amendment 31.
Yet the council refused to accept this
result.
Some councillors
at the July council
meeting were told by
the Local Government
Department not to vote
because of perceived
conflict of interest
that their properties
might be affected by
Amendment 31.
How can anyone adequately represent the
interests of all ratepayers without representing some of their own?
Of course they have
an interest they live
in the area!

She said the group was trying
to understand what happened
when skin was exposed to ultraviolet light, in particular what
happened between the skin
and all the signals produced in
the body that affected general

such as skin cancers, and the

A new D-Light research

advantage of Perths weather
to investigate how much sun
exposure we need for good
health.
One of the groups conveners
is Prue Hart, who has been head
of the inflammation research
group at the Telethon Kids
Institute, in Subiaco, for the
past 12 years.
Professor Hart said D-Light
was looking at the risks and
benefits of sun exposure.

Its about choice and getting
the balance right.
Professor Hart is leading the
PhoCIS Study, within the D-Light

multiple sclerosis using UV-B
phototherapy.
Ive spent two decades working in this field and my goal is to
harness the ability of UV sunlight to suppress the immune

Professor Hart said D-Light

at the Institute was an important

Its all part of our collaboration and the partnership within

On the verge of crop circles


By LINDA CALLAGHAN
A City Beach man who was
refused permission to build a
solar-powered tree on his verge
is creating crop circles instead.
But artist John Major has upset
a neighbour with his design in
blue metal.
Cambridge council staff gave
him 60 days to remove the rocks.
Now he wants councillors to
reconsider because he says the
stones outside his home in Lentara
Crescent will be grown over by
plants in about 10 weeks.
It seems I cant do right for
doing wrong in Cambridge, Mr
Major said.
After they refused me permission to build the tree, I applied to
put down artificial turf.
There are 56 other properties
in the area that have artificial turf
and I doubt if they have council
permission.
But I wanted to do the right
thing and applied.
I hate the idea of wasting
water.

Special Meeting Of Council


To be held on the 20th October 2015
It is advised that a SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING will be held
in the Council Chamber of the Shire of Peppermint Grove,
1 Leake Street, Peppermint Grove, on 20th October 2015,
commencing at 5.30 pm
The purpose of the meeting is to swear in the newly Elected
Councillors, elect the President, Deputy President and
representatives to various committees for a period of 2 years.
Yours faithfully
Mr John Merrick
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

In August, councillors voted 6-3 to let Ms


Yap have her office on the terrace, but only
for five years.
Some were worried about changing the shops
classification from restaurant to office.
Ms Yap had signed a 10-year lease with the
landowner, and went to the State Administrative
Tribunal to try to get a longer period from the
council.
At SAT mediation held 16 September,
Member Connor ordered that [Claremont
council] is invited to reconsider its decision,
a report to councillors said on Tuesday night.
Councillors voted 10-0 to let Ms Yap have
10 years.
I am so blessed, Ms Yap said after the vote.

Mr Major said he saw lots of


water running along the roads when
people were watering their lawns.
He said the council did allow
blue metal to be used, but of a
finer grade.
It would just blow away in the
wind, he told members of the development committee on Tuesday
when he showed them two packets
of different sized aggregate.
Councillors agreed to support
the staff decision that the gravel
had to go, but the full council will
have the final say next week.
They said under council rules Mr
Major should provide a 1.5m-wide
footpath on the verge.
Mr Major said only one man
walked past his house each day
at 6pm.
Councillor Louis Carr said:
Without causing offence, Mr
Major, one part of me says this is
horrendous.
Councillor Pauline OConnor
said: There are better ways to
waterwise that verge.
Councillor Corinne MacRae said:
Grey is such a grim colour.

What will get tired old


Crossways moving?
Subiaco councillor Julie
Matheson is spot on when she
describes Crossways Shopping
Centre as tired (Wake-up call
for tired village hub, POST,
October 3).
I am left wondering how many
years this revamp conversation
will drag on?
What a waste of potential, and
how depressing for the boutique
retailers.
Maybe the council could offer
an incentive to the strata owners
to get them moving?
I also wonder if the owners
have looked at other retail and
hospitality improvements up

and down Rokeby Road, Hay


Street and in Perth city.
Or are they so happy with
their investment return that
they dont give a damn what the
place looks like?
Conversely, are they running
at a loss?
Expanses of bland beige tiles,
a small pile of river stones, a few
potted palms and three concrete
monoliths adorn the atrium.
Such dated and dingy decor
surely deters customers.
Room for improvement is an
understatement.

Murchison Street, Shenton Park

Dont wind back the clock

Alan has been a


rock for 16 years
Cambridge councillor and
deputy mayor Alan Langer is
retiring from the council and
next Tuesday marks his final
council meeting.
On behalf of the Wembley
ward community, and the
Cambridge community more
generally, Id like to extend
grateful thanks to Alan, my fellow ward councillor of 16 years,
for his rock-solid service to the
community.
He is highly respected by
staff, his peers and the wider
community, and his no-nonsense
approach to all council issues
and his business acumen have
served ratepayers and residents
well.
You could always depend
on him to see the big picture
instead of getting bogged down
in minutiae and pettiness.
Enjoy retirement, Alan,

Shenton Park reader Carole Peters sent in this photo of the Crossways
Shopping Centre atrium and says it looks dated and dingy.

A few years ago, an elderly


friend of mine was very distressed due to construction next
door and feared her retaining
wall was collapsing.
So who did she call?
Cambridge councillor Rod
Bradley of course.
He arrived immediately,
listened to her concerns and
allayed her fears by calling in
inspectors from the council.
Ive voted for Rod Bradley as
Coast ward councillor again.

deep divide within the council


and its residents.
Ms Shannon is pushing a
single-issue platform.
Many Floreat residents and
I, who have remained silent on
Amendment 31, fully support
a more diverse, vibrant and
modern suburb with a mix of
accommodation options for all
members of the community.
We have waited 20 years for
a sensible planning solution
that addresses the changing
demographics and population
growth within our suburb while
complying with the state planning policy for greater Perth.
Lets not wind the clock back
immeasurably, opening ratepayers up to an unnecessary risk
of potentially expensive legal
proceedings.
We should think and act sensibly when we vote.

Wendy Appleyard
Lentara Crescent, City Beach

Dean Mudford
Grovedale Road, Floreat

As a resident of Floreat for 20


years, I implore residents to vote
with their heads and support
mayor Simon Withers.
In my view, voting for Keri
Shannon will simply return
Cambridge council to paralysis
and will be the catalyst for a

Lightning Rod

Alan Langer
though, knowing you, retirement
is a word I would use loosely !
Corinne MacRae
Cambridge Wembley Ward councillor
Blencowe Street, West Leederville

I read with interest Nedlands


council candidate Wayne
Neguss letter, Fun times at
Neds councils last meeting
(POST, October 3).
I do not know Mr Negus from
a bar of soap, but I suggest he
shows a bit more respect to the
councillors he evidently wants
to join.
Mr Negus should understand,
and the quicker the better, that
the matters that come before
the council are complex and
in most cases there are no easy
answers.
This will necessitate strong
debate, and during this debate,
if councillors stray from the
motion, points of order.
He should also understand
that members of the public are
not allowed to disrupt meetings
and that is why at the meeting
he wrote about, the presiding officer, deputy mayor Bill Hassell,
reminded the gallery that offenders would be removed if
this behaviour persisted.
Maybe one of his election
promises is to bring chaos to
the council and to disrupt the
harmonious relations that have
served the city well.
All present councillors have
performed with distinction over
the past four years.
They take their roles seriously and provide tremendous
service to their residents, and
this includes the three current
Dalkeith councillors.

PLC maps out curly tales


A curly pig tail was given
to every Presbyterian Ladies
College student after they
went on an excursion to the
Watsonia butter and bacon
factory.
Tierful tale The almost-empty RAS councillor stand, above, and the
jammed member stand, below, just before Royal Show fireworks started
last Thursday night.

Seating sparks anger


A Royal Agricultural Society
member says firework seating
during the Royal Show was
unsafe and a rip-off.
The angry member photoraphed the RAS grandstand,
just before fireworks erupted
last Thursday at 8pm.
One photo showed an almostempty section the other showed
a jam-packed section of RAS
members.
This year, the RAS decided
to close the south deck for the
exclusive use of councillors,
the member said.
I appreciate and respect the
fact that RAS councillors are
higher up the food chain than
common old RAS members and
I appreciate that the best-tried
theories can be different when
put into practice.
But I emailed the RAS on

Monday night and said this was


clearly not working.
The member said he was in
the stand again on two other
days, but nothing had changed.
The only security was the
man in the photo guarding the
entry to the councillors exclusive deck to keep the RAS
members out, he said.
An RAS spokeswoman said
seating for members was the
same as last year.
The south grandstand is reserved for all councillors all
volunteers who assist in the
running of exhibits and competitions at the show as well as
guests attending RAS functions.
The seats may be empty until
the evening entertainment commences but soon fill quickly as
people prepare to watch the
fireworks.

The 1949 incident and lots of


other news is documented in
colour in artist Mary Yates historical map of the Peppermint
Grove school.
Next Thursday Ms Yates
and school archivist Shannon
Lovelady will lead a heritage
walk around the school while
using the map.
Imagine doing that today,
Mary said about the pig tails.
The tour will start at Scorgie
House, the schools administration building which the map
says was The Queens School
when PLC bought it in 1917.
On Snowden Oval walkers
will learn PLC was offered a
cow for 15 pounds in 1919, but
the school declined.
The girls all realised they
had forgotten how to milk a
cow, Mary said.
Youve got to have a bit of
fun with these things.
Mary who has also created her distinctive maps for
Claremont, Mosman Park,
Peppermint Grove, and
Cottesloe councils said her
new creation took about a
year.
There was a lot of research,
she said. I turned it all into
imaginary scenery.
During her work she was
shocked to learn from a former
student that girls had not been
allowed to have toys.
On her map she had drawn
a teddy bear, so she put a line
through it and added: No toys
allowed.
The map also has details on
the crockery order that sank en
route from Britain in 1946, the

Map marvel Mary Yates with her latest creation, a map of PLC.
objections to calling the new
college house Dods (too much
like Duds), and the ill-fated
school fawn dress.
Its good for a round-table
discussion for girls. Mary said
about the map. Its a talking
point.
Mary left her native South
Africa in 1997 and lives in Mt

Claremont.
Im looking for more work,
she said.
Copies of the map A2 size are
for sale for $100. Free smaller
copies are also available.
The walk on Thursday starts at
10am and includes morning tea.

Does Cottesloe truly have


residents interests at heart?

Path wall is a
design let-down
The bike path north of the
railway line has for a long while
been broken after it passes Loch
Street railway station.
It is good to see the work
proceeding to fill this gap, so
cyclists can avoid having to
enter the road and share it
with cars.
However, it is disappointing
that the retaining walls built
immediately north of the station
seem to have been designed and
installed with no thought given
to their appearance.
The walls are post-and-panel
type with patterned faux limestone panels that do not match
the colour of any natural limestone.
The tops of the walls finish
exactly where they need to for
retaining purposes, resulting
in an abundance of steps and
a lack of visual cohesion.
These walls are going to be
there for a long time and, sadly,
they are going to look second
class and lacking in design for
all of that.
Chris Mellor
Butler Avenue, Swanbourne

Swanbourne reader Chris Mellor despairs of the design of the retaining


wall alongside the shared path near the Loch Street railway station.

Teams keep winning coaches


Ive lived in City Beach since
1974 and have seen councils
come and go.
Mayor Simon Withers and
the current council are to be
congratulated for all they have
achieved.
Our town is in the best
shape its ever been we have
new cafes, restaurants and
clubhouses, more support for

Scaffidi fracas has us worried


Recent revelations regarding Perth lord mayor Lisa
Scaffidi highlight residents
concerns over a Perth council
takeover.
The CCC is of the opinion that
there has been a lack of transparency in Ms Scaffidis failure
to disclose gifts both from BHP
and Hawaiian Investments.
At a debate hosted by the
Property Council, Ms Scaffidi
outlined her dreams of a tunnel

under Kings Park so that urban


infill below the scarp of Kings
Park, all with riverside setting,
could replace the unsustainable meandering of Mounts
Bay Road.
Her interest in treating a few
buyers to the glorious river
views seems to take precedence
over respecting what is sacred
to us all.
Anna Vanderbom
Monash Avenue, Nedlands

sporting clubs than ever before,


as well as better parks and
footpaths.
I dont know why anyone
would want to change this
council.
After a lifetime of playing
sport, I know that no team ever
made it to the top without a
great coach.
Like coaches, mayors cop a
lot of criticism from Monday
morning experts who cant
understand why things dont
run perfectly.
Good coaches and good
mayors have to see the bigger
picture.
Good coaches and good
mayors have to shut out the
noise and take the team to its
objective.
When you have a winning
coach who gets results, you
hang on to them.
Its the same with mayors.
Robbie Young
Dartmouth Avenue, City Beach

This is an open letter to


Cottesloe mayor Jo Dawkins
about her recent notice to residents about the councils stance
on the Perth Freight Link.
Im not convinced the council
has residents interests at heart.
In this notice, you said: it
would be irresponsible of the
council to oppose an initiative
that has the potential to benefit
Cottesloe by reducing the heavy
traffic.
I think the opposite: it is
grossly irresponsible of the
council to adopt the position
it has in the face of large and
growing community opposition
to the project.
Transport Minister Dean
Nalder has steadfastly refused
to release any business case for
the link (perhaps there is none).
The heavy vehicle industry
has agreed that truck volumes
on major suburban routes will
increase and many drivers will
use Curtin Avenue to avoid a
toll on the link.
Curtin Avenue is already
awash with large trucks and traf-

fic is heavy, noisy and dangerous.


Main Roads has a vested
interest in the link proceeding
the federal government gave
it $1.6billion to build big roads
(no other developed countries
would choose this sort of option
in 2015).
Face it, Ms Dawkins. In my
opinion you dont wish to voice
opposition to a project Cottesloe
MP and Premier Colin Barnett
fully backs.
If the council had the real interests of all Cottesloe residents
at heart, it would commission
its own investigation of the impacts of the Perth freight Link
on Cottesloe.
I will not vote for any councillor you support in these
elections.
Cottesloe deserves a council
that represents the diverse views
of the community, and has the
ability to make sound decisions
for a sustainable future.
Kerri Watson
Princes Street, Cottesloe

Subi spends more than neighbours


Subiaco councillor and candidate Hugh Richardson says a
campaign for no rate increases
has no substance, because
recent rate rises have been
dominated by state government
charges and council candidates
are campaigning on something
they will not fix (Burns backs
group of four, POST, October 3).
Maybe incoming councillors
could look to their neighbours
to find some cost savings.
Nedlands looks after an area
three times the size of Subiacos
and has a similar number of
residents, yet manages on

an operating cash budget of


$24million, as against Subiacos
$42million.
Cambridges area is three
times the size of Subiacos has
28,000 residents v Subiacos
20,000, and it has an operating
cash budget of $36.5million.

New PLC head


learns the ropes
By DAVID COHEN
Kate Hadwen says no
big changes will be on the
agenda when she starts as
Presbyterian Ladies College
principal next year.
Dr Hadwen has been involved
in an extended handover with
Beth Blackwood for the past
month to ensure she is a full
bottle on the first day of school
next year.
I think I have some idea of
what Ive got myself in for, Dr
Hadwen said. Its a privilege.
Ive kind of been Beths
shadow ... Im looking forward
to listening to what everyone
has to say.
Dr Hadwen has no plans to
bring back the old school tie
and supports the International
Baccalaureate.
I wont be making any immediate changes. The tie is not on
the agenda, she said.
Ms Blackwood, who has been
principal for 18 years, started
the IB and said it was worth it.
It gives choice and its an option for students who are good
all-rounders, Ms Blackwood
said.
It prepares them exceptionally well for university ... the
focus is on offering a range.
Some PLC parents question
the IB because only about 10%
of girls choose it.
Dr Hadwen said the figure
next year would be closer to 20%.
Before I came here I did a
scoot-around of IB and what
the numbers are like, she
said.
On the whole its about 10%.

PLCs numbers are quite


remarkable given weve only
had the program for a relatively
short time.
Some parents also worry about
co-educational classes at PLC
but Ms Blackwood said it was
about options.
I think the days of educating
girls in girls schools, in an ivory
tower, are over, she said.
I still believe girls do best in
a girls school, but having opportunities to work alongside boys
in a genuine meaningful activity
allows them to understand different perspectives.
She said some classes did
not have the numbers to be run
at PLC or Scotch College, its
brother school.
At her last junior school assembly, Ms Blackwood told
girls the junior school was a
place where she took refuge if
she was having a tough day at
Scorgie House.
There are tough days when
there are so many demands
competing for attention that you
need to walk away from the desk
sometimes to be reminded what
youre here for, Ms Blackwood
said.
The junior school is a lovely
way of doing that.
Its a demanding job, but Ive
loved it.
I like that notion of when you
arrive in the morning you never
really know what the days going
to bring.
Debbie Lee, Ms Blackwoods
executive assistant who has been
at PLC for 34 years, will leave
the school next month.

More than 20 extra council


workers could be put on parking and traffic duties for games
and events at Subiaco Oval over
the next two years.
Subiaco councils staff of 10
rangers will be augmented by
teams of 18 casual parking and
information officers, and three
team leaders in 2016 and 2017,
and possibly 2018, under a tender which closes on Tuesday,
October 13.
The new contract will renew
similar existing arrangements.
The 43,500-seat oval hosts
around 30 to 35 major events
each year, which bring in about
a million people.
According to the tender documents, the extra staff will be
expected to spend 75% of their
typically five-hour-long shift
patrolling streets and carparks,
issuing infringements for noncompliance or take corrective
action to ensure fair and safe
use of parking resources.

Free entry
There will be free entry to
all handball competitions at
the national championships
in Mt Claremont this weekend.

State tax
tackled
Two of Perths biggest
sporting bodies joined forces
to tackle the state government last week at the State
Administrative Tribunal.

No go Claremont pools carpark was off-limits for Royal


Show-goers last week.

Bays pay
Community groups are in
line for parking money after
last weeks Royal Show.
The Claremont pool carpark
was not used for show patrons, but
the council let community groups
collect money at other spots.
North Cottesloe Surf Life
Saving Club and the Claremont
Nedlands Lions Club managed
the cars at Lake Claremont
parkland.
The bottom golf course
carpark saw Friends of Lake
Claremont and the Rotary Club
of Mosman Park collect money.
Rowe Park was run by
Cottesloe Surf Veterans,
Freshwater Bay Primary School,
and the Claremont Bowling Club.
The Dolphins Water Polo Club
managed carpark 5.
Council corporate and governance manager Les Crichton said
community groups received 70%
of the money they collected.
As in past years, pool users
are provided parking permits
by pool staff, Mr Crichton said.
As always the rangers and
our environmental health officers did long hours and assisted
where they could.
Im pleased to say that both
traffic and parking were generally less problematic this year.
We understand patron
numbers were down, however
planning for both in light of the
construction works in the immediate area paid dividends.

Jellyfish are coming to get us


Jellyfish are taking over the
world, says Louise Farnay.
The Cottesloe artist has an exhibition depicting the creatures
at the Marie Antoinette shop in
Napoleon Street.
Im concerned about depleted fish in the oceans,
Louise said.
Jellyfish are taking over and
its a severe issue around the
world.
They look so beautiful and
fragile, but they are deadly and
annoying and full of freedom.

of cut-off framing.
It means you can rotate the
canvas in any direction, she
said.
She said she painted on the
floor.
You get a beautiful gestural
movement with your arm,
Louise said.
Prices for her jellyfish art
range from $690 for a framed
A2-size picture to $35 for smaller
versions.

Louise (52) is a Presbyterian


Ladies College graduate and
also studied at the then Perth
technical college.
She has lived in Singapore,
Tokyo, London and Hong Kong.
Next Friday, October 16,
Marie Antoinette owner Sarah
Aubault will have an event for
children featuring Louise, a
colouring-in competition and
ice-cream tasting.
The exhibition runs for another three weeks.

The WA Football Commission


(WAFC), which runs Subiaco
Oval, and the WA Cricket
Association, which operates the
WACA ground in East Perth,
brought the action against
the Commissioner of State
Revenue.
Both had the same legal team
at the directions hearing on
September 30 while the State
Solicitors Office represented
the Commissioner.
The dispute related to their
status as not-for-profit organisations and state taxation.
It was agreed the tribunal
would first deal with the WACA,
with mediation starting in
February next year and the
WAFC in April.
The WAFC, which has its
head offices at Subiaco Oval,
did not want to comment.
A WACA spokesperson said
the association was seeking
clarification on an administrative issue.
A Department of Finance
spokeswoman confirmed the
proceedings but would not
comment further.
Unless information is made
public in a directions hearing,
the Commissioner is prevented
from disclosing specific taxpayer information by the Taxation
Administration Act, she said.

Prosecution
rests with
department

Scandal fires up
By LLOYD GORMAN
Worry over misconduct alleged against Perth Lord Mayor
Lisa Scaffidi has spilt over to
neighbouring Subiaco, part
of which is in the process of
being swallowed by one of her
pet projects.

A decision on whether to
prosecute Perth lord mayor
Lisa Scaffidi for allegedly
accepting and concealing
valuable gifts now rests with
the Department of Local
Government.
The Corruption and Crime
Commission said this week that
it had done its work in bringing
its report to the attention of
Parliament and the department,
which has responsibility for
enforcing the law.
It is up to the [department]
to decide what action to take,
if any, the CCC said.
Although the time for breach
action has expired, the time for
prosecution has not.
Breach action can be taken
in the State Administrative
Tribunal as an alternative to
criminal prosecution, but there
is a time limit on the SAT alternative.
The 2008 all-expenses-paid
trip the lord mayor and her
husband took to the Beijing
Olympics was paid for by BHP,
which benefited from two decisions of Perth council.
Parts of the gifts were prohibited. Mrs Scaffidi did not
list that and other gifts from
companies on the register in the
next financial year as required,
according to the CCC report.
They came to the attention
of the CCC in May when BHP
was fined $US25million over its
Beijing hospitality program by
the US Securities and Exchange
Commission.
The maximum penalty for
each count of failing to disclose
gifts, if proved, is $10,000 fine or
two years jail.

Perth lord mayor Lisa Scadi addresses the Subiaco Business Association in the Barry Cable room of Subiaco Oval. At the time her council had
made a formal takeover bid to include in its boundaries Subiacos business district, Subiaco Oval and Princess Margaret Hospital. It has now
set its sights on the southern end of Subiaco, including UWA and QEII.

Subiaco council has raised its


concerns with every MP about
Perths mayoral status and proposed capital city legislation.
In the wake of the Corruption
and Crime Commissions report
about Ms Scaffidi, Subiaco councillors at Tuesday nights council
meeting unanimously authorised
mayor Heather Henderson to
write to MPs.
The City of Perth Bill which
proposes moving about 3000
residents in the South ward
of Subiaco into an expanded
Perth City Council (PCC) could
be back in Parliament for next
weeks sitting.
The Bill would also create
a powerful committee with
new planning powers, headed

by the Perth mayor and WA


Premier, which is being strongly
supported by Ms Scaffidi, the
University of WA and developer
lobby groups.
Mrs Henderson told MPs
councillors had agreed with
Premier Colin Barnetts comments that PCC could become
dysfunctional if Ms Scaffidi
was re-elected without the confidence of its elected members.
The City of Subiaco shares
these concerns and wants to
see the status quo remain,
she wrote.
Whichever way the City of
Perth mayoral elections goes,
[Subiaco] is concerned that
the strategic direction of the
City of Perth isnt a positive
outcome for the South ward
residents.
In the letter she stated PCC
had previously said it did not
want to be responsible for
normal residential precincts
and wanted to focus on being
a modern, leading capital city.
On the other side, the City

The commissions case against


From page 1

CCC said it had not even been


raised there.
But she had assiduously entered in the gift register a $30
cheese platter, a $20 porcelain
goblet, a $25 ornamental fan and
a $25 Space Shuttle clock, plus
PIAF tickets.
There was an intention to
keep the [BHP] gift confidential,
the report said.
On Monday after the CCC report was released Mrs Scaffidi
said that she had attended
every event as an ambassador

EXPRESSIONS OF INTEREST

for Perth and WA.


But when the CCC had asked
her about her activities in
Beijing she said she had made
no formal speeches but used the
trip for networking.
She later told a journalist that
the trip was made as a private
individual.
On her way home from Beijing
she and her husband enjoyed a
side holiday to Shanghai with
two other couples. In Shanghai
they paid their own accommodation.
The Olympic hospitality package was very substantial and

was accepted in circumstances


where there was an intention to
keep the gift confidential, the
CCC said.
In 2008, the council waived a
$22,000 rental fee for Forrest
Place for a BHP Olympicsrelated event.
Two days later, Ms Scaffidi
formally accepted the BHP invitation to the Olympics, which
she had previously accepted
verbally.
BHP was later given free hire
at Perth Town Hall.
Ms Scaffidi also accepted a gift
of accommodation at Broomes

Cable Beach resort valued at


$1093.50 from shopping centre
developer Hawaiian, and later
voted to approve a $180,000 grant
to a group including Hawaiian
to draft a business plan for part
of Perth.
Both the accommodation
components were prohibited
gifts and should have been
disclosed but were not,
according to the CCC.
Other gifts, including the
airfare component of the Beijing
trip and accommodation to the
Leeuwin Concert paid for by
BHP were not prohibited but

p Subiaco takeover fight

Heather Henderson
of Subiaco wants to continue to
provide the local government
that is appropriate for this location, she wrote.
[Subiaco] is seeking your
support in ensuring that this
Bill is not enacted and that the
residents of the Citys South
ward continue to be a part of
the City of Subiaco.
It is common sense that the
status quo is maintained.

Julie Matheson
Mrs Henderson has written
to MPs previously outlining the
councils objections to the City
of Perth Bill.
At Tuesday nights meeting
of Subiaco council, councillor
Julie Matheson said the City
of Perth Bill would repeal the
1993 Perth Restructuring Act,
which established Victoria Park,
Vincent and Cambridge.
Whats going to happen to

those local governments when


the Perth Restructuring Act is
repealed? she asked.
As well as including the southern section of Subiaco, the Bill
would include Kings Park.
This should sound warning bells for everyone, Ms
Matheson said.
She said a bridge was being
planned from QEII to Kings
Park and Ms Scaffidi had spoken
about building a tunnel underneath the park.
Most significantly are the
powers this Bill gives to [Perth
councils] director of health,
she said.
Now, why would the director
of health want planning powers?
Is it because the hospital is close
to Kings Park? Would they be
getting powers to do development in Kings Park? These are
questions the parliamentarians
havent answered.
I have been meeting parliamentarians and they have been
unable to answer them.

lord mayor Lisa Scaffidi


should also have been entered
on the gift register, which they
were not.
Mrs Scaffidi claimed in media
interviews that her Beijing trip
had been sanctioned by the
council and that legal advice
had been obtained. Neither
statement was true.
The CEO had no power to
approve the trip and Mrs Scaffidi
had not knowingly misled on that
point, the report said.
Mrs Scaffidi was unable to
explain, when questioned by
the CCC about the BHP gift, why
she said to BHPs Ian Fletcher:

Of course its been registered.


A website journalist who
questioned the mayor by email
wrote that she said there was
no requirement to enter the gifts
on the register, and that there
was no council decision-making
relationship at the time with BHP.
She told another reporter: It
is not on my gift register nor did
it need to be.
Eight other international trips
were not disclosed by her, but
two were.
It is more probable than
not that having regard to all
the material including her

many contradictory statements,


her failure to disclose was
deliberate, the CCC wrote.
Premier Colin Barnett said
this week: I dont see there
was any benefit to the state out
of [her trip] and at any rate it
was too expensive, very much a
personal thing and the failure to
declare was the problem.
Common sense will tell you
its a gift of significant value and
it should have been declared.
He said Mrs Scaffidi bore
absolute responsibility for
accepting the trip and that she
had failed to disclose it.

Tony Simpson

Jock Barker

If she wont resign,


sack her: Barker
By DAVID COHEN
Lisa Scaffidi should be
sacked if she wont resign, says
Claremont mayor Jock Barker.
At Tuesday nights Claremont
meeting, Mr Barker said Local
Government Minister Tony
Simpson needed to show leadership if the Perth lord mayor
would not go voluntarily, after
the Corruption and Crime
Commission found she had
engaged in serious misconduct.
None of the western suburbs
six other mayors, acting mayors,
or shire president would back
Mr Barkers call.
That misconduct reflects
badly on each and every one of
us who serve as elected members in the local government
sector, Mr Barker said.
When we are elected to
public office we take an oath,
and consequently the electors
have every right to expect the
highest standards of behaviour
from us in relation to our local
government duties.

The lord mayor has dismally


failed the expected highest
standards test of proper behaviour of an elected public official.
It is vaguely suggested by
the Premier that Mrs Scaffidi
should resign.
But I suspect in the manner
in which things are done today
she will tough it out.
The public wont forget the
lord mayors behaviour easily.
Consequently, every day Mrs
Scaffidi remains in office the
local government sector carries
the burden of dishonourable
behaviour in carrying out our
public duties.
She ought to show respect for
the sector and for the citizens of
WA by demonstrating decency
and resigning.
The Minister, however, needs
to show leadership and that he
expects the principles of proper
conduct to be upheld by those of
us who are covered by the Act
he administers.
Failing the lord mayor resigning the Minister needs to
sack her.

Good news is a Lost cause

By DAVID COHEN

Theres too much news about


bad things, says magazine editor Kira Carlin.

You wonder where their heads are A local driver had a close encounter with this Claremont kerb.

Curb this kerb, says driver


A Claremont resident says a
poorly designed kerb caused
damage to her car on Monday.
Connie Micheli said the sharp
angle on the concrete kerb at the
corner of Davies and Shenton
roads had caused hundreds of
dollars damage to her left rear
wheel rim.
This corner should clearly be
rounded to accommodate a left
turn, Ms Micheli said.
You wonder where their
heads are when redesigning
the roads.
She said the markings on the
kerb showed more than one car
had hit it.
LandCorps general manager
Luke Willcock said the
intersection was temporary.

The reason the temporary


kerb has been constructed in
such a manner is to protect
an existing above-ground live
power pole at the north-western
corner from vehicle collision,
he said.
Notwithstanding, we
recognise the design of the kerb,
coupled with the line marking,
is clearly causing on-site issues.
We have instructed Georgiou
Civil to urgently implement
control measures to mitigate
the current issue.
This intersection design will
need to continue to protect the
power pole until Western Power
removes this asset.
Western Power has not yet
confirmed a date for this.

Subis assets total $350m


Subiaco council is sitting on
assets of nearly $350million.
The council is looking for
auditors to ensure its books
and accounts are correct and
compliant.
According to the tender document, the city had $349,330,660
in assets at the end of the June
30, 2014, financial year.

The document also shows


that it had a total operating
income of almost $126million
and operating costs of just over
$45million.
Total rate revenue was put
at more than $20million while
the council had outstanding liabilities of nearly $16.5million
and a full-time staff of 202.

Kira has published the first


edition of her quarterly magazine, Lost, and is hard at work
on the sec,ond issue.
Theres fabulous stuff going
on no one talks about, Kira
(27) said.
A car crash on a highway
is not really relevant. Maybe
it would be if there were 40 in
three weeks.
Lost is 114 pages and its
contents include how to live
serenely, the rise of e-sports,
where electronic waste goes to
die, a long illustrated interview
with Australian adventurer
Tim Cope, a piece on local ice
hockey players, and images of
body-painting.
It could have been 150 pages
there was so much great content, Kira said.
This was something that
needed to happen.
She said the idea for Lost
started over drinks at the pub,
and her frustration with magazines already on the shelves.
None of them really speaks
to me, Kira said.
There was nothing out there
I wanted to subscribe to.
There are nearly 20 advertisements in Lost. Kira had to
battle advertiser fears of being
in something untested and new.
Its a very cut-throat industry, she said.
Nine out of 10 magazines

Buyers beware:
road closures
By DAVID COHEN
Will buyers at a Claremont
apartment block under construction be told about their
regular road closures?
On Tuesday night, councillors approved an extra entry
and exit for the Mirvac tower
in Graylands Road.
The 234 apartments are part
of the North-East Precinct development.

Record guild
election win
UWA student Maddie
Mulholland has become the
103rd Student Guild president
after winning the election by
a record 1433 votes.
Rhys Tucker (737 votes) was
runner-up.
A former national springboard diver, Maddie said she
had been involved with student
representation since 2010 and
a lot of people knew about her
work ethic.
Maddie said being a member
of the STAR party, which had
the past three guild presidents,
had helped her cause.
With a varied but extensive background in almost
all aspects of student life, I
think I am ready and capable
[of being guild president],
Maddie said.
Maddie aims to improve food
and drink options and student
spaces on campus and engage
more with students uninvolved
with the guild.

But not all councillors like


them.
This was approved against
our town planning scheme,
councillor Peter Edwards said.
It was approved by a development assessment panel, and
it was also against Main Roads
policy.
Graylands Road is often closed
by Claremont for traffic management during events including
the eight-day Royal Show and
concerts.
When they purchase there,
will there be encumbrances on
their properties? Mr Edwards
asked.
Councillor Peter Browne said
NEP buyers were being alerted
about noise from the football
oval and the Showgrounds.
Council CEO Stephen Goode
said Mirvac could not be forced
to include a warning to buyers
about the road closures.
Its not binding because
were not granting a planning
approval, Mr Goode said.
On the other hand, it will be
on the record we asked them
to do it.
Councillor Anita Lorenz
said there would be squeals of
anguish when apartment buyers realised they would have
trouble driving in and out of
their building.
Councillor Karen Wood asked:
Where are their 250 cars going
to go?
Mr Goode said the
Showgrounds owner, the Royal
Agricultural Society, could be
told crowds and managing traffic
were their problem.
We could say we are not going
to close the road Id like to do
that, Mr Goode said.

Backyard pets are shrinking


By DAVID COHEN
Shrinking backyards are the
reason for the boom in unusual
pets, says vet Coetzee de Beer.
Avians and exotics are the
fastest-growing section in the pet
industry, the Murdoch University
vet hospital worker said.
Everyones yards became
smaller, they cant have a cat
or a dog so they have a snake,
a guinea pig or a bird.
Dr de Beer was at Claremont
Showgrounds last Thursday at
Murdochs first Royal Show stand.
A few hours earlier he diag-

nosed a 12-year-old galah with


liver disease.
All hed had to eat was bird
seed, Dr de Beer said.
But like any other creature
he needs a balanced diet his
should be pellets, seeds, vegetables and fruit.
We can manage his liver
disease, but it means some
expensive medication.
The Murdoch team sees small
mammals ferrets, rats, guinea
pigs reptiles, birds, axolotls
and frogs.
We dont do fish, but we
might go into stick insects, Dr
de Beer said.

The most common reasons


people took their pet snakes
to Murdoch were problems
shedding their skin, respiratory
diseases and poor husbandry.
The best thing to do with
your exotic pet is book it for a
consultation with a specialist
vet and get the right information from the beginning, Dr
de Beer said.
If you get it on a good diet
from day one theres a good
chance its going to be healthy.
Murdoch also has an equine
centre where vets care for everything from paddock ponies to
elite racers.

Crash charge
Dog day afternoon While Axel (below) was having fun
on the beach, someone broke into his walkers car.

Expensive outing for dog walker


A dog walker for the
Shenton Park Dogs
Refuge Home had his
car broken into at Floreat
last week.
The volunteer took Axel
to the beach for a run and
swim but returned to a
broken window.
The homes president,
Karen Rhodes, said the
walker had not left any
valuables in his car.
Axel is a seven-year-old
male staffy cross the home
rescued from Broome. He
needs at least a 45-minute
walk every day.
Hes probably better as
an only dog but certainly
didnt bother about other
dogs around him while

he was splashing in the


water, Karen said.
I think hes just been
frustrated being in kennels when he was probably
used to being on Cable
Beach all day.

Book thief fined $500


A woman was fined
$500 in court on Tuesday
for stealing 20 books from
a Dalkeith shop in July.
Monique Ann Ralph (52)
was charged by Cottesloe
police after stealing the
books, including Roald
Dahl novels, from a table
outside the Dalkeith
Village Newsagency at
9.45am on July 9.
After an investigation by
Constable Bree Daniels,
Ms Ralph, of Trigg, was
charged with a count of
stealing.
On Tuesday, a duty
lawyer told Magistrate
Michelle Ridley that Ms
Ralph felt sick about what
shed done.
She knows shes done
the wrong thing ... she was
under an extreme amount

of stress, the duty lawyer


said.
Ms Ridley noted no
medical records were offered to support a bipolar
claim.
She noted Ms Ralph had
received a spent conviction for a similar offence
in 2013.
The court heard she had
returned some of the books
to the shop, with a letter
of apology.
She cant find all of [the
books], the duty lawyer
said.
Some may be able to be
sold, but she accepts she is
liable for full restitution.
Ms Ridley ordered her
to pay $299 restitution to
the Waratah Avenue shop.
She was also ordered
to pay $169.10 court costs.

A 27-year-old West
Perth man has been
charged over a Subiaco
crash last month that left
a teenager in hospital
with life-threatening
injuries.
The 19-year old woman
was walking in Thomas
Street, near Hay Street,
at 9.10pm on Wednesday,
September 16, when there
was a crash involving a
black Mercedes-Benz.
The man was charged
last Friday with failing to
assist after a traffic incident and failing to report
an incident occasioning
grievous bodily harm.
He is due to appear in
the Perth Magistrates
Court on November 19.
Anyone with information
about the crash, or who
saw the vehicle or pedestrian involved, is asked
to call Crime Stoppers on
1800 333 000, or report information online at www.
crimestopperswa.com.au.

Uni students
laptop nicked
A Kate Spade purse was
one of several items stolen from a car at Mosman
Park on Monday.
University student
Nicola Storey said she
would welcome the return
of her property, because
it is important for her
studies.
Ms Storey was parked at
Buckland Hill when her
car was broken into.
As well as the brown/
tan purse, the thieves
took her black/grey Dell
Precision M4800 laptop,
three notebooks, French
textbook Invitation au
Monde Francophone, a
pencil case with a flower
print, and keys to a Suzuki
car.
The Dell had a black material slip with blue trim.
Contact Ms Storey on
0477 167 755.

Spade work A uni student would like this purse,


and other property returned
to her.

A bike helmet saved a man from worse injuries.

Rotto cyclist airlifted


A Perth man was
airlifted from Rottnest
Island last Saturday after
a serious bike accident.
The man was riding at
Porpoise Bay when he
came off.

Police and medics were


with the man for four
hours before the helicopter took him to hospital.
The man had been saved
from a worse injury by his
helmet, police said.

Open Day!

No go There wasnt much room for trailers in Crawley.

Tough lesson awaits


uni illegal parkers
Finess for parking on
the road outside Royal
Perth Yacht Club are
closer, according to the
Department of Parks and
Wildlife.
A club source called
the POST last week about
anarchist uni students
blocking entries to the
club and boat ramps with
their cars.
The car owners ignored
witches hats when they
left their cars at the
Crawley club.
Frustrated yachties
used lipstick to write messages Dont park here,
stupid on car windows.
The club said all the
cars blocking entries and
exits [created] a fire risk,
the source said.
Theres a lot of fuel and
boats there. All the illegal
parking would make it
hard for a fire engine to
get there.
Last year Nedlands
MP Bill Marmion said a
legal loophole prevented
department staff booking
parked cars.
Parks and Wildlife officers can only fine drivers
caught illegally parking.
Amendments to the

Conservation and Land


Management Act 1984,
known as the Conservation
and Land Management
Amendment Bill 2015,
have been passed by the
Legislative Assembly
and are currently going
through the Legislative
Council, a department
spokeswoman said.
The amendments will
give Parks and Wildlife
officers the power to issue
parking fines in the same
manner as local government officers.
Over the past four years,
department staff have issued 244 notices for illegal
parking at Matilda Bay.
Last week, the department could not say how
many fines had been issued so far this year.
In 2013 two students
were fined in court. One
pleaded guilty to two
charges, including obstructing an officer and
parking without buying a
ticket, while the second
also pleaded guilty to
three charges of obstructing an officer, failing to
display a valid parking
ticket and parking illegally.

If Cottesloe councillor Sally Pyvis is successful in lowering the speed limit on Marine
Parade to 40kmh, traffic will be pushed into
other Cottesloe streets where the speed limit
is 50kmh. [The limit is now 40kmh from Forrest
Street to Grant Street.]
Broome Street, Marmion Street, Jarrad
Street, Forrest Street, Napier Street, Avonmore

Regarding the letter, Withers gets


my vote, from Brian King (POST,
September 26).
Mr Kings characterisation of Mr
Withers ability to work with people is not consistent with the views
of 82% of residents surveyed over
Amendment 31.
We have lived in City Beach for 45
years and certainly there have been
improvements, which is no more than
ratepayers expect from their council.
Whether or not these have escalated
in the Mr Withers term of office is
debatable.
The single issue mentioned,
Amendment 31, has galvanised the
whole Coastal ward community
against him.
The mayor and councillors are
voted into office by the residents to
serve the residents, not any political party.
Some of the current councillors
have ignored this fundamental aspect
of democracy.
The best way we can show our dissent is by voting for candidates who
share our values and will represent
the majority views of residents

Unit 6-7/34 Hector Street OSBORNE PARK (Off O Malley Street)

As a Rokeby Road retailer, my


neighbours and I paid substantial
rent and always tried our hardest
to drag shoppers away from the
large air-conditioned shopping
centres and into our little area.
We would have Thursday night
specials with some extremely generous discounts on sale items, but
we still did not get more people
though the area.
We welcomed the creation of the
Subiaco Business Association, with
retailers like me meeting monthly
and, with generous council support, working together to create
a vibrant family shopping strip.
At the inaugural meeting, I suggested that because the top end of
Rokeby Road did not need to be a
major thoroughfare for vehicles,
we should block it between Bagot
Road and Hay Streets to allow pedestrians to wander up and down.
Retailers, especially food outlets,
should then be allowed to move out
on to the footpath with their wares,
with the foodies placing tables
and chairs to entice pedestrians.
Retailers supported this motion
unanimously.
The health inspector then advised that food was not allowed to
be taken out into the open and one
of the rangers said it might cause
accidents if people tried to walk
between retailers on the footpath.
I suggested that since we lived in
a Mediterranean climate, and as
they had eaten in the open in the
Mediterranean basin for thousands
of years, surely this would not be
a health hazard.

Plus, we could block off the


footpath so pedestrians could not
walk through each area.
It never happened.
It is refreshing that, over 30 years
later, we are finally getting an
outdoor market in Rokeby Road.
Good luck and happy shopping!
Graeme McLennan

When youre on
a good thing
I keep reading ads saying that it
is time to change the Cambridge
council.
I cant understand why anyone
would want change just for the
sake of change when the current
council is clearly a great council
that has achieved a lot.
You can see it everywhere.
People who say it is time for a
change seem to think it is their
turn to run the council.
It seems more about power than
about improving our local area.
I dont want these kinds of people
running our council and making
bad decisions that affect my family,
my lifestyle and me.
There are not many good councils
in Perth, and Cambridge council
wasnt always this good.
When you do get a good council,
you should support it and enjoy
the benefits.

Anything we
Khan do

From page 6

Four POST readers have


driven 16,000km across Europe
in the Mongolia Charity Rally
to raise $10,000 for English
education charity Go Help.
At the end of the trip they also
sold their Toyota Hilux to raise
another $20,000.
The four were western suburb GP Jeff Veling, paediatric
professor Peter le Souef, dentist
Andrew Bochenek and heart/
lung surgeon Mark Edwards.
Mark and Peter formed Team
Quokkastan while Andrew and
Jeff drove under the banner
Khan on Aussie.
They took two cars from
Australia for the expedition.
They drove across Europe,
through Turkey and into
northern Iran. Then along
the Great Silk Road through
Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan,
Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and on
to Kazakhstan and Siberia.
Then it was over the Altai
mountains in Russia, into northern Mongolia across the Gobi
Desert and nishing many weeks
later in Ulaanbaatar, the ancient
capital of Mongolia.
Around 20 teams from
Australia, England, Scotland,
Hong Kong, Sweden, US, Italy,
Canada, Switzerland and many
other countries took part in the
annual rally.
The teams had to nd a vehicle, raise as much charity and
sponsorship money as they
could, and then set off from
Brussels, unsupported and left
to their own resources, not to be
seen again until they reached
Mongolia on August 26.
The adventure is over but the
memories will linger, Jeff said.
To have four friends spend

Andrew Bochenek, Je Veling and Peter le Souef reading the POST just outside a Kurdish village in eastern
Turkey with Mt Ararat in the background.
over seven weeks together, to
be in close contact, the bowel
illnesses, the rough roads, the
incredible scenery, the long days
of driving, the basic accommodation and still look forward to
the next experience and share
it together is an incredible feat.
We all feel very privileged to
have done this together.
It has created a special bond
between us.
To anyone contemplating
such a journey, do it.

He said they did not experience any personal danger.


Everyone we met was friendly
and helpful. In fact, most went
above and beyond the expected,
he said.
The Kazak cafe owner who
brought out samples of all the
food he had, so we could choose.
The Russian cafe staff who
used Google Translate to explain
what the various dishes were,
the Mongol herders who came
from nowhere to welcome us, the

home-stay families who made


us feel among friends instantly.
It made us feel humble that
these complete strangers are so
welcoming.
He said he could not have
had better travelling companions with Marks culinary skills
and Peters ability to nd beer
anywhere.
And he said that after seven
weeks of travelling in a car with
Andrew just 30cm away, they
were still friends.

wanting to stay in the western


suburbs couldnt afford big
homes, but could afford apartments.
He said he made money on
Freshwater, despite the delays.
An apartment development
wont go ahead unless the developer has got pre-sales to warrant
the project, Mr Simpson said.
Before building starts you
typically need 60% pre-sold.
Freshwater was 100%.
Five out of the 10 commercial spaces have been sold for
around $9000 per square metre.
Two are being tted out for
an orthodontist.
Mr Simpson said being a
developer was challenging but
satisfying.
Youre liaising with an incredible range of professions:
town planners, bankers, engineers, website developers,
he said.
Youve got to have an understanding of all of them.
He is now working on Ten
Bellevue Terrace, a high-end
project with Giorgi Exclusive
where three of the six apartments are already sold.
He also has his eyes peeled for
his next western suburb project.

Why is your house odd and not even?


Do you know how houses in
the street are numbered?
There is a system, as Mosman
Park council found out when it
considered a recommendation
to review its policy on house
numbers.
It explained that houses in
streets running east-west were

numbered with house No.1 at the


western end of the north side.
House No.1 in north-south
streets is at the northern end
of the east side.
Houses in culs-de-sac are
numbered consecutively.
Regular house numbers are
allocated to duplex and triplex

units with each designated A


and B, or A, B and C.
The council can use its discretion to assign individual
house numbers to duplex and
triplex units.
In a battleaxe subdivision, the
front block retains the normal
house number with the rear lot

designated A.
Normal house numbers are allocated to townhouses and flats,
with internal units numbered
unit 1, unit 2, and so on.
The corporate and technical
services committee recommended the huge group of
policies be deferred.

Why bring in

I was surprised to see Loren


Whitewas runningfor Subiacos
South ward.
Loren lives in the North ward
and was a North ward councillor
until he was rejected by residents
at the last election.
As a North ward councillor, he
did very little to support South
ward and was strongly opposed
to the community-endorsed solution for Lake Jualbup.
I see no value in bringing ina
new councillor to represent
South ward when our current
one, Hugh Richardson, has
proved so effective at representing us on a range of issues.
As well as supporting individuals on specic matters,Hugh
fought hard to preserve Rosalie
Park, was a strong (and successful) opponent to amalgamation
and has worked tirelessly to
achieve a more sustainable and
community-oriented solution for
Lake Jualbup.

Farewell, Jack
I note that after 16 years of
service to the community, Jack
Walsh has not sought re-election
as a Cottesloe councillor.
Jacks outstanding contribution
exemplies how best local government should operate, that is
with transparency, integrity and
decision making that represents
the communitys best interests.
His extensive knowledge,
articulate debate, wisdom and
foresight will be greatly missed.

Margaret Owen sent in this photo of a tawny frogmouth on its nest and
reflected on the observation techniques of earlier naturalists.

Shoot first, study later


The tawny frogmouth had
been sitting on the nest for at
least 25 days before I saw its
little chick.
I read that tawny frogmouths
share in brooding the eggs.
All that time I thought she
was the same bird.
Even with sharing, a great effort is put into nest building and
to hatching a chick or chicks.
Then the offspring have to
be raised.
This nest is just outside the
bush in Underwood Avenue,
but the other partner has been
heard in Underwood on two
mornings, no doubt seeking
food.
The call is a repeated oom,
oom, oom, oom, oom.
How our comprehension
about nature has changed over
150 years.
John Gould described the
nesting behaviour of tawny
frogmouths: In every instance
one of the birds was sitting on
the eggs and the other perched

1 Butler Way, Peppermint Grove



on a neighbouring bough, both


invariably asleep. That the
male participates in the duty
of incubation I ascertained by
having shot a bird on the nest,
which on dissection proved to
be a male.
Our search for knowledge
needs the habitat of such birds
to be protected.
Our native species are protected, but their habitat is not.
Margaret Owen
Daglish Street, Wembley

While it is heartening that


so many people suddenly have
appeared to contest seats in all
Subiaco wards, it is also interesting that most of them have
not been active at all in any of
Subiacos issues over the past
several years.
Several candidates are currently councillors who have
been stalwart in their defence
of Subiaco.
One new candidate in particular, Jeremy Mowe, has worked
independently and tirelessly to
defend Subiacos independence.
It worries me that one candidate is representing a political
party, The Greens.
Subiaco survived a battle
to be independent and have
councillors who represent
their wards and ratepayers,
not parties.
I am backing Julie Matheson
in East ward because she has
made herself a champion of
Subiaco, is available for consultation and listens to each
and every business or resident
who approaches her.
It is a contrast to candidates
who have almost never come
to a council meeting, written a
letter to the POST or the West
Australian, or been part of the
numerous meetings the council
has held in order for ratepayers

to express opinions.
I urge all ratepayers, businesses and residents, to carefully check their candidates
who has been there for you,
who has used their time for
you, and who has the record
you can depend upon? and
vote accordingly.
Linda Rogers
Park Street, Subiaco

Cambridge St
no great shakes
The narrowing of Cambridge
Street in West Leederville took
over a year to complete and the
loss of business suffered by local
rms was signicant.
Cambridge Street now poses a
hazard to cyclists using the road,
given the bottleneck design.
The volume and speed of the
trafc are concerning, and trafc banks up when buses stop.
It may be that the fresh faces
of Keri Shannon, John Connell
and Andrew Mill at Cambridge
council would be of benet to
the local community.

Diverse views and harmony at Nedlands


Re Nedlands candidate
Wayne Neguss letter, Fun
Times at Neds councils last
meeting (POST, October 3).
The past four years on the
council have been a privilege
and a pleasure for me.
Contrary to what Mr Negus
thinks he learnt from the one
meeting he attended, we have

a highly functional council and


executive team at Nedlands.
Our council has great diversity, with people from many
walks of life.
We often have diverse views
about the matters before us,
leading to debate this is the
purpose of a council.
What can be said about our

council is that there is none of


the animosity between individuals that has plagued previous
councils and no factions.
This enables us to conduct
constructive and respectful
debate.

Its all over bar


the shouting
It is all over for another
year and I, for one, am
quite happy.

Light, shadow, and music Sofari Hidayat works the wayang kulit puppets. Photo: Sandy Herd

Drama emerges from the shadows


Guests at a Javanese shadow
puppet play rehearsal in
Claremont were invited to go
behind the scenes to see how it
worked.
Master puppeteer Sofari Hidayat
was at Methodist Ladies College
so students could play gamelan
music as he worked the puppets.
The western concept is to sit
at the front, to see the puppets on
the screen, MLC music teacher
Peter Hadley said.
But in Java, people prefer to be
on the other side of the screen, to

see the action.


Eighteen students played gongs,
bonang (metal pot-shaped drums),
and xylophones as Mr Hidayat
performed and narrated part of
the story of the kidnapping of Sita.
After the rehearsal, Mr Hidayat
said there were about 300 puppets
used in the plays.
They are made of leather and
buffalo horn, he said.
The puppet play (wayang kulit)
has been performed for more than
a thousand years.
The Year 8 MLC students have
done a unit on gamelan music and

have learnt several wayang pieces.


Its place in Javanese culture
is akin to opera in the West, Dr
Hadley said.
In Java, some dalangs (puppeteers) are superstars and treated
like royalty.
Wayang has been declared a
Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible
Heritage of Humanity by the United
Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organisation [Unesco].
Mr Hidayat does a gamelan
performance once a week at the
Indonesian consulate in East
Perth, which is free and open to all.

Yes, congrats to the Hawks


and commiserations to the
Eagles. Now lets move on
and go fishing.
Plenty of bread-and-butter
fish herring, skippy, a few
nice gardies and the odd
tailor are being caught
along most metro beaches,
including in POST country.
Cottesloe is fishing well
for herring and nice sand
whiting, with the odd squid
being caught from the rocks.
If you head a bit farther
north, to Hillarys, Ocean
Reef and Mindarie, some
reasonable tailor are still
hitting baits in the late
afternoons, along with the
odd decent skippy. Squid
are being caught in numbers
from the rock walls, too.
Boaties are doing well
close to shore, with good
numbers of nice sand whiting coming from just about
anywhere you can spot a bit
of sand. The beauty of having a boat is that the farther
out you go, the bigger the
whiting get.
Large patches of sand surrounded by broken ground
and weed are where you will
find good-sized sand whiting
as well as king george whiting (KGs).
For sand whiting, a small,
long-shank hook, a small
sinker and a piece of prawn
or squid will do the trick.

FISHING

with Gary Shugg


For the bigger KGs, first
catch some fresh squid over
the weed banks, keep the
tubes to eat and the heads
for bait for thumping big
KGs.
Usually 8kg line will do,
and use the same rig as for
sand whiting but with bigger
hooks around 1/0 or 2/0.
Now here is the secret to
landing those big kidney
slappers.
Cut the fresh squid heads
down through the eyes to
make two equal pieces,
Thread half a squid head
on to your hook, leaving
the squid tentacles hanging down.
Drop your rig to the bottom
and keep the rod tip moving
up and down to make the
tentacles move around and
ensure your bait is irresistible to any passing KG.
Keep in mind that the West
Coast bioregion demersal
fishing closure, from north of
Kalbarri to east of Augusta,
comes into effect on October
15 and continues until midnight on December 15.
This irks a lot of anglers
but there will be long-term
benefits for your children
or grandkids.
Thank goodness the footy
is over. But hang on, isnt the
cricket starting soon?

How to tackle bullying


Hear about innovative ways
to prevent or reduce bullying
by children and young people
at a free forum in Churchlands.
It is an ideal opportunity for
parents, teachers and others who
work with children and young
people.
The forum will be presented by
Professor Donna Cross from the
Kids Institute and University of
WA, who will outline strategies
developed from 12 years of ongoing research.
The forum is coordinated by
the Commissioner for Children
and Young People, Jenni Perkins,
who says bullying is often raised
as an issue in her conversations
with children and young people
across WA.
Professor Crosss research is

recognised worldwide and, importantly, she is able to translate


this work into practical strategies
that help parents and those who
work with children and young
people to identify when bullying
is occurring and take appropriate
steps to address it.
The seminar will also include
presentations from the president
of the WA School Psychologists
Association, Eileen Kuruckchi,
and two young people involved
in the Cyber Savvy research currently being conducted in WA
schools.
The seminar is from 7 to 8.30pm
on Tuesday, October 27, at the
Churchlands Concert Hall, 20
Lucca Street.
It is free, but bookings are essential at trybooking.com/IYYK.

Members of the Perth Metro Pipe Band are teaching a new generation of pipers.

Are the pipes calling you?


The Perth pipe band scene is
set to grow with students from
all schools now able learn the
bagpipes or drums.
Perth Metro Pipe Band member James Forsyth is president
of the new Perth College of
Piping and Drumming, which
he said was started to fill a need
for quality pipe and drumming
tuition.
Whenever the Perth Metro
Pipe Band plays, people always
come up to us and say they love
the pipes or drums and wish
they or their children could
play, so we decided to establish
the college and open up the
pipe band scene to everyone,
James said.
Ultimately, we just want to
build up Perths pipe band scene

to be one of the best in the world.


Lessons for students of all levels and ages are held on Monday
evenings at Perth Modern
College, Subiaco, or on Saturday
at the Masonic Hall, Inglewood.
Perth Metro Pipe Band is

Perths fastest growing pipe band


and grade 3 state champions. The

Playing a round for charity

There were pink fascinators


and hats, pink masks, pink
aprons and pink shorts when
members of Surfside Ladies
Golf Club hit off for the cancer
cause.
The clubs annual Pink Ribbon
Day at Wembley golf course aims
to raise money for breast cancer

research, and to have fun.


Club captain Wendie
McKenzie organised a fun game
of golf, which was played by 40
ladies in pink-outfitted teams
using, of course, bright pink
golf balls.
Many winners were presented
with a variety of prizes as well

as novelties.
Two raffles raised $292 for
breast cancer research.
The Surfside ladies have
been playing golf at Wembley
golf complex for 55 years and
hold two fundraisers a year, the
other being for Starick Womens
Refuge.

When spices ruled the world


The first Europeans to arrive in Indonesian in the 16th
century saw wealthy multicultural societies with maritime
networks stretching halfway
around the world.
Middle Eastern and south and
east Asian merchants in the
emporiums traded in brilliantly
dyed Indian textiles and Chinese
porcelain as well as spices.
The coastal Malay and Javanese

sultanates had established


close connections with the international world of Islam and
this inspired the development
of sophisticated artforms now
known as the pesisir, meaning
coastline.
The subsequent ascendancy of
the Dutch East Indies Company
changed all this and by the 18th
century the bustling Indonesian
ports had been reduced to halfdeserted provincial towns.

At 6pm on October 21, James


Bennett, the co-curator of the
Art Gallery of WA exhibition
Treasure Ships: Art in the Age
of Spices, will present a talk,
View from the Shore, on the
cultural impact of globalisation
of Indonesia during the age of
spices.
The talk in the Theatre
Auditorium at the University
Club UWA is free but booking is
essential on eventbrite.com.au.

Stuart McPhee, an experienced


private share trader and author,
will explain the worlds biggest

Wild about the


carnivores
Allen Lowrie will share his knowledge
of, and passion for, plants that eat animals
when he gives a talk in Subiaco on Tuesday.
Allen, who is a world expert on carnivorous
plants, started working at 15 and had established himself financially by 40 so he could
follow his passion for plants.
He is a self-trained botanist and talented
researcher who has travelled across Australia
and into Borneo, Sumatra and Malaysia to see
plants in the wild.
He has described 135 new plant species,
published six books and many papers.
His latest works are the three-volume coffee
table books, Carnivorous Plants of Australia
Magnum Opus, containing a wealth of illustrations, both photographs and Allens botanical
drawings.
Carnivorous plants fascinate people all over
the world and WA has a very rich supply of different carnivorous plants.
Allen will present his talk for the Perth
branch of the Wildflower Society of WA on
Tuesday, October 12.
The society meets in the Subiaco Community
Centre across the road from Crossways shopping centre in Bagot Road.
The doors open at 7.30pm and the meeting
begins at 8pm. Supper is served after the talk
and entry is $2 at the door.

Jazz man gets his gong


Cottesloe musician Lew
Smith is the first jazz man to
be honoured as a State Living
Treasure.
Better than a buried treasure, Lew quipped.
He is one of 15 senior artists
to be honoured for their lifetime
contributions to arts and culture.
Born in Yorkshire, Lew came
to Perth with his singer wife,
June, in 1974, and he soon established himself with the Perth
Jazz Society.
Lew and Junes Apple Band became a fixture on jazz calenders.
Lew, a multi-instrumentalist,
was a founding member of Jazz
Fremantle in 1992 and continues to be a committee member
today.
He said he was really proud
to have jazz recognised as an
art form and that the award was
really for Jazz Fremantle, which
is thriving and still plays every
Sunday at the Navy Club.

The Living Treasure Awards


were introduced in 1998 and
held again in 2004. They have
recognised WA artists, authors
and performers, including Tom
Hungerford, Jimmy Chi, Robert
Juniper, Lucette Aldous and
Elizabeth Jolley.
The award ceremony will be on
Friday, October 16, and the recipients are actor Faith Clayton,
musician Stephanie Coleman,
authors Robert Drewe and Joan
London, artists Pippin Drysdale,
Alan Griffiths, Nalda Searles,
Mary McLean, puppeteer Noriko
Nishimoto, choreographer
Chrissie Parrott, film maker
Herbert Pinter, photographer
and printmaker Miriam Stannage
and musicians Richard Walley
and Dave Warner.

Kids art is
all about
being messy

Making a show
of heritage
The famous and not-so-famous
people who shaped Perth will be
portrayed in three very different
performances next weekend
as part of Perth Heritage Days
2015.

Nedlands artist Jane McKay understands that making a mess and making
mistakes are all part of learning.
Jane has moved away from exhibiting
her abstract works to teaching art to a
new generation.
She has been running art classes for
children in Perth for more than five years
with Creative Kids Art Club.
What began at Tresillian Arts Centre
with one class and four children has now
grown to over 100 budding young artists at
Tresillian, Fremantle and Scarborough.
Jane said: Art is often hard to do in
a classroom. Its messy, it involves a lot
of cleaning up and if teachers are not
really into art, it can sometimes just be
too hard.
But art helps children develop original
thinking and problem-solving skills and
teaches them that making mistakes is all
part of the learning process.
Art students are aged between five and
10 and Jane said that over the years, she
had had students who were difficult to
manage in a classroom but were totally
focused and involved in art.
When a five-year-old tells you that
taking her finished work of art home was
the best day of her life, you know youre
doing something right, she said.
Creative Kids Art Club is held after
school from Monday to Thursday during
school terms, and each term explores a
new project painting on canvas, mask
making, drawing, decoupage, sewing,
sculpture, clay work, papier-mache or
printmaking.
They never do the same thing twice,
Jane said.
For more information, go to: www.
creativekidsartclub.com.au.

Creative kids George Mort and Zara Wayzlan proudly show o sculptures they created.

How to get creative at Tresillian


A new series of courses
will start at Tresillian Arts
Centre in the second week
of the school term.
There will be art classes
covering everything from
watercolour and oil painting
to pastels and acrylics.
Some of the classes cater

for beginners and others are


for more advanced artists.
Enrol for social life drawing, needle craft or mould
making or get involved in
weekend workshops.
There are also classes in
French and Italian language
for beginners to advanced

speakers.
Tresillian caters for the
body as well as the mind, with
Pilates and yoga sessions.
The term runs from
October 17 to December 9.
To book, call in at
Tresillian, 21 Tyrell Street,
Nedlands.

At Parliament House, there will


be a dramatic performance highlighting Edith Cowans life and
acknowledging the part women
have played in shaping Perth.
It will be delivered by Perthbased actors Michael Loney,
Caroline McKenzie, and Sophia
Forrest. Caroline and Sophia are
related to Edith Cowan and Sir
John Forrest respectively, which
adds another dimension to the
presentation.
St Georges Cathedral is presenting The Time of Your Life
created by Jenny Davis and directed by the cathedrals drama
consultant, Anthony Howes.
It is a vibrant play that is the
culmination of two years of
Agelink workshops with seniors
reminiscing about the 1950s.
With a large cast aged from
five to 50, this play recalls the
pathos and comedy of an era
when Perth still had rationing
and kids played backyard cricket
all summer.
At the Perth Town Hall,
you can hear the BallPoint
Penguins portraying some of our
Perthonalities, past and present,
in songs and parodies.
Their show, The People Who
Shaped Perth, will examine the
rarely explored intersection
between heritage and humour,
with a bit of nostalgia thrown in.
Performances are on October
17 and 18 and are free, but some
require bookings.
The full program is available
at heritageperth.com.

Awards value our heritage


Nominations are open for
next years WA Heritage
Awards.
The awards recognise outstanding contributions by owners, volunteers, professionals
and organisations that work
hard to promote and conserve
WAs cultural heritage.
Heritage Minister Albert
Jacob said: I encourage all
West Australians to get be-

hind their communities and


nominate worthy candidates.
There are many recent
examples across WA of stateregistered heritage buildings
that have been transformed
into contemporary commercial
and residential spaces through
thoughtful conservation and
adaptive reuse.
These places have been
given a new lease of life while
retaining their heritage values

and I would be very happy


to see them honoured with a
heritage award nomination.
The awards are run by the
Heritage Council and this
years awards recognised 11
individuals and outstanding
heritage projects in April.

WA Heritage Awards close at

Bench encourages kindness


A new buddy bench at City
Beach Primary School has

school parent who died from
breast cancer last year.
School principal Grant Ward

the bench would be a beautiful

Applications are just about


to close for adventures on
sail training ship Young
Endeavour next year.
There are places for 24
young people on each 11 or
12-day voyage on which they
will learn the skills to sail a
square-rigged tall ship.
Keeping watch and taking
the helm, cooking in the galley, navigating using the ships
charts, and climbing the 30m
mast are just some of the tasks
the crew is set.
Voyages in Young
Endeavour develop skills for
life, says Young Endeavour
Youth Scheme executive di-

rector Stephen Moss.


No matter where you
sail, your voyage in Young
Endeavour will be challenging and exhilarating an
amazing experience you will
remember for the rest of your
life!
Youth crew are selected by
ballot, and no sailing experience is required.
Young Endeavour is operated by a professional Royal
Australian Navy crew who
ensure the highest standards
of safety and care, and teach
the youth crew.
Applications for the ballot
are open to young Australians
aged 16 to 23 at www.youngendeavour.gov.au.
First round applications
close on October 10.

favourite shells, crystals and


Lego to be set in resin and inset
into the bench.
Angelas partner, Keith
Hickey, said Angela would have
loved the idea of the buddy
bench, with its special purpose
of helping to foster friendships.
Mr Ward said buddy benches
had been built in various schools
around the world.
The buddy bench will offer a
special place for our kids to sit
and reflect, or to signal to other
children in the playground that
they need a friend to sit and talk
to or play with, Mr Ward said.
In addition to City Beach
Primary Schools values of
respect, responsibility and
resilience, the bench aims to
foster the qualities of kindness,
caring, compassion, sharing and
inclusion in our children.
Through small acts of courage our children experience
how great it feels to be there
for others and what a relief it is
when others are there for them.
Mr Ward said students could
use the buddy bench if they
were new to the school, wanted
to make new friends, wanted to
play something different from
what their friends were playing
or if they wanted to be buddies.
Mr Ward thanked Ben
Hawkins and the team from
Keepa Group who designed,
built and installed the bench,
which was funded by the schools
P&C.

Sophisticated Mephisto
SARAH McNEILL

Faust holds a brightly-lit


mirror up to us and asks how
far we have really come, says
WA Operas artistic director
Brad Cohen.
When the devil appears and
asks Faust what will make
him happy, his answer is not
wealth or fame he already
has those. He desires youth,
and will do anything to regain
it.
A nave young woman is
seduced, gets pregnant, loses
the baby and loses her sense
of herself.
This is the story of Charles

Gounods medieval opera


and we have not come too far
from it.
The once popular opera
was relegated to the back
blocks for several decades as
notions of evil and the devil
changed. Mephistopheles as
a red-caped, red stockinged
devil became unpalatable and
instead the face of evil often
took on more human forms,
like Stalin and Hitler.
But in 2004, Scottish
director David McVicar
updated Faust for the Royal
Opera House in Covent
Garden, giving it a new and
timely relevance.

Instead of its traditional


16th century setting, McVicar
placed the opera in the
decadence of 1870s Paris a
time when the original opera
was at the height of its fame.
Emperor Napoleon III was

in power and France was


teetering on the edge of the
Franco-Prussian war.
Brad explained: It was
the time of a new-look Paris,
when imperial boulevards,
grand arches and a tower

were being built and there


was a bellicose pride in being
French.
It was a period of dramatic
clashes between established
Catholicism and a new
appetite for the decadence of
cabaret, music hall, absinthe
and morphine.
And evil took on the
form of smooth, elegant
sophistication, Brad said.
Brad lives in Oxford when
hes not in Perth and couples
his career as an international
conductor and artistic
director with running his own
music publishing company,
Performing Editions.

story

From page 64

Just last week, he


launched his new company,
Tido Enterprise, to
produce downloadable
digital sheet music.
Brad is well known
for his critical editions of
popular operas and says
Faust is the musical bible
from which all other operas
have sprung.
Grounds Faust offered
a model of how a lyric
French opera might
succeed, Brad said.
He said Gounod had
written to Bizet when he
was composing The Pearl
Fishers, encouraging Bizet

with specific strategies for


composing a number-based
opera.
Every opera used
Gounods template, Brad
said. Far from being a
clich, Faust is in fact the
pure source from which the
clich eventually sprang.
In a production that
swings between the grandeur of cathedral towers
and the dazzling lights of
dance halls, American tenor
Patrick OHalloran is Faust,
Teddy Tahu Rhodes is
Mphistophls and Natalie
Aroyan plays Marguerite.
Brad conducts the WA

These are our songs


SARAH McNEILL

A visit to the War Memorial in Canberra inspired an album of Anzac songs for Lee Kernaghan.

Lee Kernaghan had to be


persuaded to stop learning
American country music
and start writing his own
Australian bush ballads.
I didnt think my life
was important enough to
write about, he said.
It was 1992, and with
his first hit song, The
Boy From the Bush, Lee
changed the country music
landscape in Australia
forever.
His first song was a
simple one about a young
bloke in the bush, utes,
pubs and beer ... And it
was explosive, he said.
Hot on his heels, Troy
Cassar-Daley, Keith Urban
and James Blundell were
all exploring an original
and ancient Australian
songline, strumming about
the landscape and the
drovers, bushmen and
farmers who live on it.
Between them, they
made country music
mainstream.
I was so fortunate to be
part of this group, Lee said.
[The music] was about
them, it was about us.
He had a string of hits
like Outback Club, Three
Chain Road, Hat Town

and Electric Rodeo, which


dominated the charts.
He has sold more than
two million albums, and was
named Hit Maker of the
Decade in 2001 and 2011.
During a visit to the
Australian War Memorial
in 2013, Lee began to read
the letters and diaries written by Australian servicemen and women dating
back to Gallipoli.
I could almost hear the
music in my head as I was
reading, Lee said.
He began to put the letters and diaries to music in
what would become Lees
most recent album, Spirit
of the Anzacs.
He said: This album
could have had 50 songs
instead of 20, and the
planned six months became
two years as I kept going
back again and again
to cover the main areas
of Anzac service, from
Galipolli to Vietnam, Korea
and Afghanistan.
Its not like anything
Ive done before. Its
like every song Ive ever
written that has sought to
give voice to the bush has

been preparing me for the


privilege of singing the
voice of our soldiers.
These are not songs
about war, but about
mateship, valour, courage,
love and friendship.
It went platinum within
three weeks of being
released in March, and is
the highest selling Australian
album for 2015 so far.
Lee also released his first
book this year, The Boy
from the Bush, These are
My Songs, These are My
Stories, tracing his career
and telling behind-thescenes stories about songs
and albums.
Now Lee is undertaking
the biggest tour of his
career.
Called The Songs and
the Stories in Concert, the
two-part concert will feature his most loved songs
and the stories behind them
in a semi-acoustic setting,
followed by the Spirit of
the Anzacs album complete
with a large video screen.
He will perform at
the Regal Theatre on
October 17. Book through
Ticketek.

Olive and Ernst Samec relax at home after viewing their daughter Olivias portrait at the
Black Swan portraiture exhibition.

Portrait of
a survivor
SARAH McNEILL

I almost thought I
didnt need to paint his
face, Olivia Samec said of
her portrait of her father,
Ernst.
Everything that
represents who he is is in
the painting.
In the portrait, which
won a commendation in
the Black Swan Prize for
Portraiture and is a semifinalist in the Doug Moran
Portrait Prize, her father
(87) sits in a modernist egg
chair next to an ancient
ceramic wood-burning
kachelofen, and on the wall
above him is a portrait of
his wife painted by Romola
Morrow.
Titled Ernst Samec,
Architect, Migrant
Survivor, Olivias painting
pays tribute to the Austrian
immigrant who had
escaped Nazi conscription
by tunnelling his way out
of a military compound and
escaping over the Alps.
He eventually made his
way to WA to become an

influential architect
and partner
with famed local
architect Marshall
Clifton.
When Marshalls
daughter, Romola,
painted Olive
Samecs portrait,
Ernst refused to sit
for her. However,
he was more
relaxed about sitting for his
daughter.
Olivia said that instead
of sketching and taking
photographs, she had
painted the portrait straight
to canvas over 40 sittings.
The 2.5m tall, thick
porcelain kachelofen that
stands in the corner of
the room is part of family
history.
It is burnt into
everyones memory, Olivia
said, of the ornate Rococo
piece that Ernst bought
when it was removed from
a German castle in the
1970s.

will be announced at
the opening of the 2015

at Juniper Hall in
Paddington, Sydney, on
Wednesday October 28.

Lily Mercer believes that


science and art go hand in
hand.
Lily, a ceramic artist and
part-time science teacher,
was born in England and
now lives in Mt Claremont.
She is frequently
surprised, and occasionally
appalled, at how little
Australians know about
their native flora and
fauna.
It is amazing how few
people know that the
numbat is the Western
Australian animal emblem,
she said.
She teaches the science
of ecology and the
environment at Moerlina
school, and supports her
teaching with her own
collection of ceramic and
porcelain native animals.
Her company is called
Potteroo Creations, named
after Gilberts Potoroo,
which was thought to
be extinct until it was
rediscovered in 1994 in
Two Peoples Bay reserve.
She makes numbats and
bilbies for the Australian
Wildlife Conservancy,
which protects native
animals, and donates some
of her proceeds to the
organisation. Her porcelain
kangaroos are stocked by
Aspects of Kings Park.
Next weekend, Lily will
hold her first exhibition

1 tsp mustard seeds
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp brown sugar
To serve:

reduced by two-thirds and syrupy in
consistency.
Allow syrup to cool and then decant
to a small jar. Add the oil, mustard

season with salt and pepper. Screw
the top on the jar and shake well to
combine.
One hour before cooking, prepare
the steak. Combine the paprika, garlic,
olive oil, parsley and peppercorns in
a shallow ceramic bowl, mix well and
then massage over the meat to coat
it. Cover and allow to come to room
temperature.
Preheat the barbecue or pan to
high heat, add steak and cook for two
minutes each side or until cooked to

Remove steak from barbecue and
allow to rest for five minutes, covered
loosely with foil.
To serve, slice steaks into thick slices
and drizzle over the beer dressing, a

The thrill of the grill


floral

apron

KATE NELSON

Evening walks around the


neighbourhood are punctuated
by tantalising whiffs of sizzling
sausages and slabs of steak.
They are smells that reminds
you that summer holidays are just
around the corner.
Nose in the air, I am like a basset
hound as I try to detect whats
cooking.
The most envy-inducing
barbecues send out scents that are
smoky, sweet and have that extra
hit of something exotic thrown in.
Cooking and eating outdoors is
an Australian tradition. After all,
it was the promise of meat three
times a day that was used to entice
migrants from the British Isles
during the mid 19th century.
Colonial meats were most likely
to be native game or mutton past
its prime, but the kiss of flames and
a generous attitude to seasoning
can have a transformative effect.
The modern butcher works
on the same principal, offering a
dazzling array of protein that has
been cut and tenderised into quick
fixes for busy customers.
I am not a fan of overly
marinated meats because the
flavours and textures can dull and

detract from the character of the


meat.
Marinades should enhance the
meat by providing an interesting
and flavoursome crust. Dry rubs
and simple herb and oil blends take
only minutes to prepare and work
their magic quickly and effectively,
leaving scope for adding lively
flourishes post cooking.
This weeks recipe celebrates the
proven union of succulent prime
beef and beer.
It is a fantastically low effort,
high impact dish and the trickiest
part is boiling the lager for long
enough to reduce it to a flavourful
syrup.
Rules of barbecue and steak
cooking are well worth mastering.
Make sure the grill is hot enough
to create the sizzle required to keep
cook time relatively short. Aim for
minimal turning and prodding as
the steak cooks. The rule of thumb
is to turn it only when juices rise to
the surface.
Resting the meat after it cooks is
also crucial to maximise tenderness.
Then its just a matter of carving
into slices and topping with beer
dressing, which has been reduced
to a malty tang, and serving with
freshly charred seasonal vegetables.
Dont be surprised if you see
neighbours peering over the fence
trying work out what smells so
good!

Losing its grip on the Krays


Legend (MA15+)

REVIEW: PIER LEACH

Tom Hardy is a
chameleon actor of a
calibre that can make
sitting in a car for an entire
85-minute film utterly
riveting as he did in last
years superb drama Locke.
Most filmgoers,
though, will recognise
his burly screen presence
from his more physical
performances, in which
violence and madness seem
to be recurring themes in
Nicolas Winding Refns
brutal 2008 film Bronson,
Warrior, Lawless, The
Dark Knight Rises, and
even this years excellent
Mad Max: Fury Road.
He is a fascinating actor
to watch and in writerdirector Brian Helgelands
film about Ronnie and
Reggie Kray, the notorious,
much-feared gangsters of
Londons East End during
the 1950s and 60s, he plays
both twins.
Its a huge challenge.

With Reggie he has the


chance to show some of
his range, the ability to
switch from handsome
and charming into a cruel,
cold-blooded thug. With
Ronnie, however, the
schizophrenic, sadistic and
more overtly psychopathic
of the two, any depth is lost
in the films lightweight,
blithely comical tone.
Hardy soon makes you
forget hes playing opposite
himself, but Helgeland
(whose screenplay for LA
Confidential won him an
Oscar) has bigger problems
to contend with, starting
with an underdeveloped
script.
At 131 minutes it is
bloated, but worse, it
doesnt contain any
narrative arc. It starts in
the 60s when the Krays
are already established
as gangsters with clout.
Blackmail gets Ronnie
out of prison and Reggie
soon meets Frances (Emily
Browning), his future wife
and the films unlikely
narrator.
The twins brutal tactics

are evidenced early on,


and the violence remains
steady throughout. But

Nelson will take part in


a Cottesloe literary event
with visiting Melbourne
novelist Leah Kaminsky.
In her book, After This,
Alice recorded the stories
of some of the last living
witnesses to the Holocaust.
Fourteen Holocaust
survivors, who all had made
new lives for themselves
in Australia, recounted a
period of horror, torture,
pain and shame.
Leahs novel, The
Waiting Room (Random
House), is set in Israel and
is a fictional rendering of
Leahs experiences as the
daughter of a Holocaust

survivor and as a doctor


living and working in
Israel for 10 years.
It has received
widespread acclaim for its
exploration of the inherited
trauma on the children of
Holocaust survivors.
Alice said: Leah and
I will be discussing
Holocaust memory,
commemoration, writing
about painful experiences
and many more topics in
the context of both our
books.
The free event, with
morning tea, is at the
Cottesloe Civic Centre in
Broome Street on Sunday,
October 18, at 11am.

First Vintage 1959
With blackberry
and mulberry on the
nose, this wine has
ripe red raspberries and freshly cracked black
pepper, with star anise and
liquorice adorning the edges.
The texture on the palate is
magnificent luscious and
rolling on the front-mid palate
with ripe fruits flowing into a
finish that has firm, gravelly,
drying tannins and very good
length of flavour. No new
oak is used in this wine. The
American oak hogsheads
(300L) are one, two and three
years old so the fruit shines
without the overt influence of
oak characters. The stand-out
quality is the intense concentration of flavour.
Elegance, liquidity, balance
and intensity.

the length is magnificent.
The cabernet component
lends flow and elegance to
the palate, while the shiraz
brings spice and weight. The
gravelly tannins sit on the
cheeks rather than the floor
of the mouth and seem to
multiply. It is not as plush as
the 2012, but is restrained,
intriguing and spiced all the
same. The fruit has absorbed
the strong American oak
characters.

the fruit is elegant and has

Part legend, part history, her story is set in
1000BC and follows King
Davids extraordinary
rise to power and subsequent fall from grace.
Anointed as the chosen
one when just a young
shepherd boy, David
rises to be king, grasping
the throne and establishing his empire. But his
journey is a tumultuous
one and the consequences of his choices will
resound for generations.

He is by turns hero and

patriarch.
His wives love and fear
him, his sons will betray
him.

Working in the red north


There is an ethereal
edge to the photographs of
Perths Daniel Craig (aka
Matsu).
Daniel captures the
fluidity of movement and
raw energy of performers
in the local music scene.
But in his first book.
Dust, he has left the music
scene behind and ventured
far into WAs north, to the
red dust of the Pilbara,
to immerse himself in the
harsh beauty of life on a
cattle station.
Daniel spent two weeks
in the outback following
the cattlemen and women
of De Grey, Mallina and
Sherlock stations as well
as catching the action
and spills at a rodeo in
Pannawonica.

Pilbara allowed him to
gain their trust, resulting
in images that are both
stunning and intimate.
Whether from up
close among the cattle as
theyre mustered or from
a distance highlighting
the enormity of a fullyladen road train, Daniels
photographs deftly
capture the richness of the
landscape, people and life
in the cattle country.
Short, written reflections
accompany some of the
images, giving us an

insight into his approach


and emotions. As Daniel
sees it, there are multiple
dimensions to his

photography.
A camera is just a tool
it is the heart and mind
guiding it that matter, he
writes. There is a sense of
freedom in the hard work
out here.
In Dust, Daniel provides
a beautifully crafted
glimpse of the lives of those
who work in the red dirt
and dust of the Pilbara.

this iconic corner house.
Built to custom specifications and used as a display home, the sprawling

It succeeded on both
fronts.
Built on a 423sq.m block,
the home combines bold

Strata
managers
in spotlight
Strata managers
who mismanage
properties will
be retrained or
forced out of the Strata Community
Australia CEO Kim
industry under
Henshaw.
a proposal from
the sectors peak
body. Strata Community Australia
chief executive Kim Henshaw says
a small number of bad apple
strata managers are hurting the
industrys reputation. The SCA is
undertaking a qualification redesign
that it hopes will offer managers
the chance to earn a certificate
III or IV, or a diploma in strata
community management. SCA
accounts for the membership of over
80% of Australias strata managers,
but there are operators out there
not bound by codes of conduct
and ethical standards, who give
others a bad name, he said. Mr
Henshaw will present the results
of the redesign to the WA state
government after it is completed,
but says the ball is in their court
when it comes to implementing it.

Yet it pales in comparison to the 27


gigawatts generated by coal-fired
power stations, due largely to the
problem of solar storage. Rooftop
solar generates most of its power in
the middle of the day, while most
of us are at work. When we come
home and turn on the lights, its
no longer generating. Tesla CEO
Elon Musk is marketing his lithium
ion Powerwall to store renewable
energy, but at $4220 for the
lowest capacity model it doesnt
come cheap. Scientists at Harvard
University led by Professor Michael
Aziz think theyve come up with a
cheaper, greener alternative which
they call flow batteries. The
batteries rely on cheap, abundant
elements stored in liquid form in
tanks. The batterys capacity can
be modified by simply increasing
the size of the tank. Energy density,
or the space required to store a set
amount of electricity, is a problem
for the emerging technology, but the
scientists still expect their product
to be commercially available within
three years.

Paradise in Peru
If restful solitude is your idea of
a perfect getaway, this Peruvian
mountain retreat might be your
ideal holiday home. Built on a
5800sq.m rural plot near the capital
Lima, the house enjoys sweeping
vistas of a lush river valley and
the mountains that flank it. A
steep, winding track leads down
to the river 70m below. Local firm
Marina Vella Arquitectura played
heavily on Peruvian traditions in the
distinctive design, which features an
abundance of rough-cut stones and
clay, as well as some rich timber
trimmings to add contrast. It takes
local influences to a new level, as
most of the materials used in the
construction are found on the site.

Solar battery breakthrough promise


Australias rooftop solar generating
capacity reached 4.2 gigawatts
in June a phenomenal increase
from just 0.04 gigawatts in 2008.

Flow batteries designed by a team at


Harvard University could be the lowcost solution to solar energy storage.

Most of the materials used to build this Peruvian mountain retreat are
found on the site.
Prices drop 2.7 per cent
The Perth housing market slide
continued in the third quarter of
2015, as house prices slumped by
2.7%. The metro median now sits
at $535,000. REIWA president
Hayden Groves said the dip was
modest considering the recent surge
in listings, which have reached

around 15,000 across the city.


[That] is up by about 3000 on what
we would consider normal, he said.
The rental market is even softer,
with about 50% more properties
on the market than this time last
year, according to REIWA. As a
consequence, the overall median
rent has dropped to $410 per week
across Perth, Mr Groves said.

Ensuring your bond is returned untouched


Abel McGraths Investor
Service Manager, Sandra
Pereira says in most

issues involved in tenants

She says carpets must be

cleaned by a professional
and it will help ensure
tenants get their bond
back if they also enlist
the help of professionals

in order to ensure the

On occasion there may
be an opportunity to
do so, time permitting,
however it is not a
requirement of the
property manager to do
so, she explains.
As someone who has
inspected hundreds
if not thousands of
properties during the

course of her career, Ms

common reasons for
tenants not getting their

o not be fooled by
the blond brick exterior this Subi townhouse
harbours something truly
unexpected.
The renovation, which
the owners completed
about 18 months ago, shows
an eye for detail and stylish, minimalist design.
That masterful alchemy
of old and new is typified

at the homes core, where


a striking jarrah staircase
is combined with a sleek
balustrade in glass and
polished chrome.
The light-filled living
area has jarrah floorboards
and crisp white walls,
while the kitchen is decked
in white Silestone quartz.
You might never want
to leave this open-plan living area but for the paved
courtyard that is accessed by
a pair of glass sliding doors.
North-facing and hidden from the street, the
courtyard has the feel of a

private caf garden.


There, you can sip drinks
with friends in the shade of
established plants, including a lemon tree.
The top floor encompasses three good-sized
bedrooms, all with grey
woollen carpets, and a
bathroom that is tiled from
floor to ceiling.
There is an air of
Parisian-style glamour to
the main bedroom, which
has a walk-in robe and its
own balcony.
There is room for just
one car in the carport, but

when youre this close to


the action, you might have
no need to drive at all.
Rokeby Road is just a
short walk from the 224sq.m
strata property.
The strata levies are
$592.86 a quarter.
The selling agents
are Niki and Chelsea
Peinke, of The Property
Exchange.

ow would you like to


own 32.3ha in the heart
of the golden triangle?
That is, of course, the
Margaret River wine regions golden triangle, so
dubbed by Australian wine
writer James Halliday.
The sprawling property at 5021 Caves Road,
Cowaramup, is on the
market for $1,795,000.
With winemaking heavyweights for neighbours,
including Vasse Felix and
Cullen Wines, its of no
surprise the agent says the
property could be the ideal
tourism venture.
Selling agent David
Cross of JMW Real Estate,
said approval had been
granted in the past for
chalets to be built on the
property, and although
that approval had since
lapsed, the potential to
apply for something similar
remained.
Regardless of potential,
the existing three-bedroom
home has much to offer on
its own.
Elevated and cedarclad, the house resembles
a contemporary log cabin,
nestled among native trees.

gents will often tout a


homes proximity to the
local school bus route or
railway station.
But how often do you come
across a family home that is
just metres from the local
primary school?
This Webb & Brown-Neaves
home, on a 470sq.m block, is
one such rarity.
Its directly opposite
Swanbourne Primary School
and a short bike ride, or
minutes drive, from Scotch
College in the other direction.
The kids can walk over

Polished Tasmanian oak oors give warmth to the interior.


there and use the ovals or playing fields on warm afternoons
and weekends, selling agent
Nathan McIntosh, of Mack
Hall, said.
You dont need a massive
block when youre over the
road from that.

The homes backyard is


manageable in size and certainly has a lot going for it.
Parents will love that they
can keep an eye on the kids
from the kitchen or limestone
alfresco area, where they
swim in the raised concrete

pool or play on the artificial


sports turf.
In the open-plan living area,
tall windows make the most
of the pitched roof, letting in
plenty of natural light.
The kitchen comes seriously well equipped, with
gleaming black granite benchtops and Miele appliances.
At the front of the home, a
formal living area features a
two-storey void that sets the
tone for a stylish design.
There are three bedrooms
on the top floor, including the
main suite, which has a walkin robe and an oval spa bath.
Here, a north-facing balcony looks out to the street,
while retaining privacy,
thanks to an established
Chinese elm.

Riverside Real Estate

here is a tiny sliver of land


near the Dingo Flour sign
where the river is barely more
than 500m from the beach.
The short isthmus is inconveniently bisected by the
railway line, but its still only a
short walk between the Indian
Ocean and the Swan River
using the pedestrian crossings.
This neatly packaged limestone house sits right at the
sweet spot, well back from the
highway but within an easy
walk of the river foreshore or
Leighton beach.
The design complements
the enviable location, making
good use of stone and timber to
create a warm, inviting home
that seems to revel in the sea
breezes.
Its a practical design for
active families, with one main

living area downstairs and


three big bedrooms upstairs.
There is also a guest bedroom near the main entrance.
There are no big lawns
or elaborate gardens to take
care of, just a sprinkling of
greenery around the patio
and at the front of the 354sq.m
corner block.
That is because you dont
even have to cross a road to
get to the riverside parkland
that stretches all the way to the
eastern tip of Mosman Park.
Blackbutt floors lend the
home an elegance that is sure
to impress guests, and the wellequipped kitchen with a gas
stove and an island counter
will make catering a treat.
The selling agent is Jennifer
Rosenstein, of Riverside Real
Estate.

Samaritans
enjoy the
sunshine
Samaritans walked their
dogs in the sunshine last
Sunday to promote a mental
health art exhibition.
As part of Mental Health
Week, volunteers from the
Samaritans listening service
handed out brochures to promote the Samaritans and Mental
Health Week Art Exhibition at
the YMCA Gallery in Frame
Street, Leederville.
This exhibition showcases the
work of more than 60 artists who
share their expression of living
with mental illness.
It runs until Thursday, October
15, and the gallery is open on
weekdays from 9am to 5pm.

Angry parents take a swing


From page 1

concerned about the policys


impact on their childrens play
and interaction.
If the council is suggesting
that we potentially move away
from that community spirit and
that family spirit that we all
enjoy so muchand ultimately go
to a protection liability nanny
state, how do we then consider
our position as community loving people who want to be part
of Mosman Park? he asked.
The easy option is to go to
lets protect all our liabilities,
but if I ran my business like that
I may as well get lawyers to be
all our non-executive directors
and protect our liability.
To me, this is about embracing the community spirit here.
Mr Mansell said the fact that
there had not been any consultation before the ranger turned up
pointed towards Mosman Park
becoming a nanny state.
Jimbrell Street resident Pepita
Smyth said she has been given
a verge hire form when she applied for a permit on the Tuesday
after being served the notice.
She said it required $150 up
front and $50 a week.
I am happy to apply for a
permit, but honestly I am not
going to pay $50 a week for a
swing thats insane, she said.
So I signed a form with the

cost crossed out. I went away


very disenchanted by the whole
process.
Ms Smyth said many residents
had already taken their swings
down because they were afraid
of being ned.
I really believe that the
swings keep my children safe
and it is a very important part of
the community spirit, she said.
Its been a school holiday day
today and I have been home in
and out doing housework.
There have been children
from three different houses
where their parents work.
These children have been
running up and down the verge
without stepping foot on a road
the whole afternoon with various
parents watching out the window.
The children have been able
to grow and communicate with
each other safely without getting run over, without walking
to a local park on dangerous
Mosman Park roads.
They have been staying
off the driveway, they are on
the grass playing safely. Even
my four-year-old is under the
watchful eye of the community
out there.
We dont live in blocks with
high walls to keep our children
inside.
Mr Mansell said the swings
kept the children active and off
the X-Box and computer games.

We want our kids to be able


to look each other in the eye
rather than talking at their
feet, he said.
We want them developing
their social skills and interacting in the community and getting
physical exercise.
Ms Johnson said the policy was
so divisive it needed community
consultation to discuss it.
But CEO Kevin Poynton asked
Mr Mansell to arrange a meeting
with him, regulatory services
manager Thomas Abbott and
residents to discuss the policy
and he could then report back
to the council.
He suggested the residents
take up a petition and present
it to the council, which would
then have to act on it.
Mr Poynton assured them the
council would embargo any
further enforcement action
until then.
North ward candidate Andrew
Maurice, who attended Tuesday
nights meeting, said: I think
local government should be
encouraging activity by kids
and not discouraging it.
I think the council should
have communicated more effectively with the residents
in explaining the reasons for
enforcing the policy, as well
as having processes in place to
handle enquiries with respect
to the permits.

Where is
the truth?
From page 3

In the meantime, Ms Dawkins


yers containing the erroneous
statement that the road would
be regulated had been delivered
to each home.
Ms Dawkins said she had not
changed the website and was
unaware it had been changed.
It is my understanding the
slides on the website have not
been changed since they were
emailed through to council by
the MRWA, she said.
Mr Rickard also conrmed
that there were no planned
changes to the favoured heavy
vehicle route to northern commercial and industrial areas up
Curtin Avenue and through the
western suburbs:
Container trucks travelling
on Port Beach Road currently
make up 2% of all vehicles and
11% of the total 3000 average
weekday container truck movements to and from the port, Mr
Rickard said.
With Perth Freight Link it is
expected that these trucks will
continue to travel northbound
to service industrial areas in
the northern suburbs.
If the percentage of heavy ve-

hicles using the western suburb
route remains steady (at 11%), the
actual number of heavy vehicles
would then increase, as total
truck numbers using the port
climbed towards 13,200 in 2050.
This would mean 11% of that
gure, about 1450 heavy freight
vehicles a day, would use Port
Beach Road to begin their travel
north through the western suburbs via Curtin Avenue, West
Coast Highway and Hale Road.
Mr Rickard said the western
suburb route would remain a
restricted access vehicle (RAV)
4 network route, but no further
access to larger classes of heavy
vehicles would be allowed.
RAV 4 network vehicles include prime mover semitrailers
towing dog trailers to a length of
27.5m; trucks of this size will still
be allowed on Curtin Avenue,
West Coast Highway and other
RAV 4 roads.
Curtin Avenue and West Coast
Highway are also RAV 2 network
roads, on which short B-triples
and B-doubles to a length of
27.5m are allowed, as are car
carrier semi-trailers and prime

movers towing semi-trailers to


a maximum length of 25m and
20m respectively.
B-triples up to a length of
36.5m will be allowed on the
freight link. They are included
in the larger classes of heavy
vehicles that Mr Rickard said
would not be allowed on western
suburb roads.
The confusion over whether
or not regulations will be used
to force truckies to stick to the
freight link follows Premier
Colin Barnetts appearance at
the North Fremantle residents
meeting in August at which
he said that trucks would be
forced to use the freight link,
but gave no concrete commitment that this would happen,
instead saying it was the most
likely scenario (Barnett to use
big stick on truckies, POST,
August 29)
The POST sought a comment
from Main Roads on what regulation if any would be in place to
prevent heavy vehicles leaving
the freight link route, but at the
time of going to print they had
not responded.

School mull over where our new
high school will be.

From page 3

We will not have enough


places by 2026.
Mr Collier said a decision on
the site would be made in three
to six months.
A problem with the old City
Beach HS site are the four tenants: the International School,
the Japanese School, the Hyogo
Institute, and a student residential college.
Mr Collier said the
International School had a
lease until 2027.
He said the old City Beach
HS site was very practical, and
if it was chosen the government
would nd a new home for the
International School.
Co-location could be possible, Mr Collier said.
Mr Withers and Cambridge
councillors were briefed on the
new school on Wednesday night.
They havent published a
timetable, Mr Withers said.
Each site has issues a number have serious environmental
issues.
I hope it leads to better bus
services for City Beach.
City Beach HS was closed in
2005 with 140 students.

all members of the Senate committee agreed on the need for


an outer harbour in Kwinana
to be developed.
But she said that was 10 to 20
years away and the freight link
was necessary in the interim.
Numerous witnesses disputed
her position, saying work on the
outer harbour needed to start
soon and the massive injection
of nearly $1billion of federal
funding should go towards that
instead.
Dr Pettitt said Fremantle
council would support the
building of a dedicated freight
rail bridge over the Swan River,
which would allow more freight
to run during peak hours rather
than off-peak as was currently
the case with the shared-use
rail bridge.
He estimated the cost of that
to be $80-120million.
Running the port and trucks
at off-peak times was also suggested.
Unlike most other cities in
the world, our port only runs
from 8am to 5pm, Dr Hendrigan
said.
In most port cities, it is the
inverse.
He suggested the port could
operate additional hours from
5am to 10pm.
It would be controversial,
but its either that or build a
$2billion freeway to a port approaching capacity.
MUA representative Chris
Brown said building the freight
link would enhance the sale of
Fremantle Port, but that the port
would then be out-competed
by a new state-of-the-art outer
harbour, which would be built
to accommodate bigger ships
and have bigger boom cranes.
Dr Hendrigan said the rst
stage of the freight link, known
as Roe 8, would be like a
viaduct across the Beeliar wetlands and the boggy ground
there would require a vast
amount of geotechnical engineering to ensure the freeway
didnt subside.
Poor communication and
lack of transparency from Main
Roads and the state government
were making the issues around
the freight link very confusing
for the public and the Senate
inquiry panel alike, Senator
Glenn Sterle told the inquiry.

Hawks show us the height of the bar


Hawthorn have set the standard once again.
I can see why some teams dont
enjoy playing them, but right
now, to win a Grand Final, you
have no choice.
So last weekends big game
was not the dawn of a new era
for the West Coast Eagles, but
it was not necessarily the end
of one either.
The Eagles had a brilliant
season.
As for the Hawks, they hammered home the status quo,
proving again that its battlehardened men who make things
happen on a football field,
men like Luke Hodge, Sam
Mitchell, Josh Gibson, Shaun
Burgoyne, Isaac Smith and
Jarryd Roughead.
These are the stand-up guys
from the mighty Hawks, all
among footballs highest echelon of achievers, and damn
proud of it.
They play in your face, puncture defences and burn up teams
from the inside.
You could have made a case
for any of them to win the Norm
Smith Medal.
In any football match, character, heart and desire are
things you cant measure, but,
inevitably, a game comes down

to the tale of the tape.


So when it was announced
that the little magician Cyril
Rioli had won the medal, who
could possibly argue?
He requires only a dozen disposals to wreak havoc, but his 18
disposals, including a mammoth
11 score assists, were carnage
on a new level, even for him.
Theres no argument that big
muscle-bound men with pace
always lodge in the frontal lobes
of the recruiters.
But if you dont have good little
guys in your team, you are not
following the trend of our game.
Football needs those smaller,
quicker, skilled players who can
dart around like jumping jacks
on Guy Fawkes Night.
In recent times, premierships
have been won with coaches like
Mick Malthouse, who builds a
house of bricks, then surrounds
it defensively with a series of
barbed-wire fences.
The Lyon King will probably
tell you this defensive mindset
doesnt always work.
But this final series has been a
celebration of the brilliant little
guy I can just imagine Rioli
saying, Size aint everything.
It aint the muscle, its the
movement, eh Cyril?
But, as good as Hawthorn

made on the fly in a pressurecooker arena, and normally


you might excuse it. But not in
a grand final.
I actually thought Luke played
well. He is a very talented footballer, but his decision not to do
the team thing was a momentum
changer.
In the first half of the third
quarter, the Eagles found a
spark of intensity and gathered
momentum: just one more goal,
and maybe the Hawks might get

the jitters.
Then, came the second decisive moment.
As the ball flew high over Jack
Darlings head, he did everything right and out-manoeuvered
his opponent to take what looked
a straightforward chest mark.
Unfortunately, Jack spilt what
he would take 99 times out of 100,
straight out in front, 25m from goal.
Bugger me, the Hawks got off
the hook, promptly kicked the
next two goals and the Fat Lady
started to moisten up the tonsils.
This seasons final series has
been something of a paradox.
Some matches have been
strap-yourself-to-the-seat enthralling, others, like the Grand
Final, lopsided and unbalanced.
But in the end, Hawthorn, the
benchmark all season, were still
the benchmark at the final curtain.
They did it easily, like tossing
sand pebbles into a river, and
they have stamped their passports to greatness by winning
three premierships on the trot.
Whats worse, some of their
hard-arsed senior players obviously dont know when its time
to leave the table.
Many of them were raising
four fingers in the celebratory
photos.
Cheeky so-and-sos.

Claye Beams

Dayne Beams

There must be something


about tattoos that grabs the
attention of the young at heart.
I am now 72, and, inspired by
one of WAs most distinguished
hoteliers (and my cousin), Bob
Maher, who sports a tatt on his

left arm, I recently got one on


my left arm as well.
Im not going to reveal what
it actually says, but its Chinese
character in permanent black
ink confirms my lifelong love
of Asian culture.

were, and as skilfully as Cyril
played, the Grand Final game
highlighted how simple errors
could be game-changers that had
a corroding effect on everything.
There were two pivotal moments.
The first came early in the
first quarter, when Eagle Luke
Shuey didnt handball over the
top of a defender to teammate
Jamie Cripps, who would have
run into an open goal.
These decisions, of course, are

Messages from footballers ink


A couple of weeks ago, I
wrote about AFL footballers
making statements by sporting
crazy, ghastly and sometimes
cool hairstyles.
Well, what do their tattoos
tell us?
Aristotle once said that the
aim of art was to represent
not the outward appearance
of things, but their inner significance.
If thats the case, some of our
AFL stars have some serious
explaining to do!
Lets have a look at just a few,
starting with the leader of the
pack, Dane Swan.
Swanny, the Collingwood
champ, would look more at
home astride a Harley Davidson
hog the Adelaide constabulary
certainly thought so a little
while back!
Whatever story the ink all over
his body tells us, it would go on
longer than Blue Hills.
And what about the Beams
brothers? Both have used their
bodies as canvases, Dayne
splashing his story in red,
green and blue ink down his
right arm and continuing on
the right leg.
His bro has seen fit just to

Dane Swan
cover both arms in all three
colours. Youd have to ask them
what it all means.
Not all brothers follow the
trend: Brad Hill has tatts,
Stephen doesnt.
Travis Cloke is another whos
gone big. When hes wearing his
famous number 32, you could
swear you were looking at
the tips of the wings of a giant
Magpie under there.
But when you actually see it,
who knows what it is or what
the scythe-like apparatus right
in the middle of it all is? Clues
anybody?
The Hawks Cyril Rioli is the
same, with just the tips of a
tatt poking out from under his

guernsey surely, a hawk?


Nope, Cyril has RIOLI emblazoned across his back, just in
case somebody needs to know
who he is at the beach.
Other heavily tattooed payers
include Buddy, Nathan Jones,
Mitch Clark, Michael Walters,
Clancee Pearce, Chris Masten,
Jesse White and Dustin Martin.
Some of the boys, of course,
have cool tatts.
One is Luke Hodge, who has
a small tattoo on his inner right
arm. Undeniably cool on an
undeniably cool dude.
The first footballer I can recall
getting a tattoo was East Perth
captain-coach Jack Sheedy in
1962.
I saw Jack last week, and he
confirmed that the tattoo on his
right arm was a rose, put there
during his days in the navy.
I must have been inspired because, in Hong Kong on a footy
trip a few years later, I saw a
tattoo parlour and talked two of
my Subiaco teammates, Kevin
Merifield and Peter Burton, into
joining me to get our nicknames
tattooed on the insides of our
right legs.
Yep, Ocker16 is still there it
has now lasted almost half a
century.

Do the whistle blowers need a whistle blower?

The other day I found myself


in the middle of an argument
between two old mates about
you guessed it the umpires.

One of them, an Eagles man


through and through, said WA
clubs always got the wrong end
of the whistle when they went
to Melbourne.
My other mate, a dyed-inthe-wool Sainter, said that was
rubbish, and Melbourne clubs
got slaughtered by the umpires
when they came to Perth.
He was still recovering from
the 23 frees to six the Eagles
got against his mob in round 23!
Bets were laid, and I was appointed King Solomon.
Anyone who knows me will
tell you that statistical analysis
is not my strong suit, so I asked
around to find someone who
could provide the necessary
research.

I was introduced to, of all


people, WA rock-and-roll legend
Dave Warner, who now lives in
Sydney and is a student of the
strange ways of the umpiring
fraternity.
Some of the facts he gave me
made my head spin!
First, he settled the bets: Dave
said both my mates were right
kind of.
The Saints man was only
just right, despite that recent
lopsided count.
On average, Victorian teams
do fall on the wrong side of the
free-kick ledger when they play
away from home but only by the
tiniest fraction, not much worse
than the away club suffers when
two Melbourne teams play in
Melbourne.
Also, they hardly ever have
a blow-out game where they
get absolutely slaughtered by
the umps.

Dave said the Eagles guy was


correct: when non-Victorian
teams visit interstate, they get a
much worse deal from umpires
and have many more blow-out
games where its harder to find
a free kick than a satisfactory
answer from a call centre.
He reckoned that over the
nine seasons hed been looking
at umpiring stats, the trend was
remarkably consistent.
When non-Victorian teams
travel interstate, they get the
frozen tip of a very raw prawn.
When other non-Victorian
teams come to play at Subi,
they can expect to be roughed
up too, whether its Dockers
or Eagles.
I did a quick check of free
kicks this season and found only
one game at Subi in 23 rounds
that didnt fit the pattern.
But Dave said Eagles supporters shouldnt complain too much.

Over the past three seasons,


West Coast had 185 more free
kicks than theyd conceded,
almost 50% more than the next
team, North Melbourne.
At the same time, Fremantle
had the worst record in the AFL,
recording 135 more free kicks
against them than theyd been
awarded.
Oh, and surprise, surprise,
the free kick-count in the two
derbies was 52-32, or 62% in the
Eagles favour.
Dave says this years stats show
home Vic teams get 56% of free
kicks when they play visiting
interstate teams.
If that doesnt sound like
much, ask Tony Abbott if hed
have been be happy with that
approval rating in the polls!
So, finally, I asked Dave the
64-thousand-dollar question:
do you think umpires really
are biased?

Turns out that, before he


took to rock-and-roll, Dave
got a psychology degree, and,
he suggested a whole pile of
subconscious forces affected
umpires.
Hes labelled them, such as
Lets not spoil the party, Who
do you punks think you are?
and What a champion! but
most importantly I really want
you guys to like me.
Sometimes, Dave believes, the
umps could have several of these
biases working on them all at
the same time, and he reckons
theyre just as powerful as the
old crowd free-kick.
Its all a bit of a mystery to me,
but the upshot, after seeing it in
black and white, is that if you
want a bit of a leg up from the
whistle-blowers, it pays to play
for a Victorian team.
Or, ahem, the Eagles.
