Editor’s letter
Contents
I
don’t know about you, but when I see a massive storm approaching my instinct is to f nd the nearest shelter. It’s the same approach my dog Truman adopts – although he adds a couple of extra dimensions, including wild-eyed staccato barking followed by a rapid retreat. I think both our responses are reasonable and natural – which is why I f nd the subject of this week’s feature story so intriguing. Storm chasers, as their title suggests, don’t run away; they go as quickly as possible towards the threat so they can get the best possible photos. In this week’s edition we talk with two of the best in the business – a couple of Sunshine Coast locals who ignore their basic instincts to get the perfect shot. For them, the start of summer signif es storm season – for the rest of us it marks the countdown to Christmas. My Weekly Preview and Sunshine Coast Council are getting in a little early with the release next week of the 2014 My Christmas booklet – the ultimate guide to Christmas on the Coast. There are details about where to go for Christmas carols, great recipes, and all the info you need for a great New Year’s Eve - so don’t forget to get your copy. I look forward to talking with you again next week.

THUNDER DOWN UNDER They put their lives on the line for their passion, yet these Sunshine Coast storm chasers say there is no feeling like experiencing the raw power of Mother Nature at her best. Words: Candice Holznagel
T
he 1998 Magna, bruised and broken from years of hail damage, sits alone on the dry and deserted paddock. The ominous clouds are rolling in fast and anyone observing from a safe distance would hope the vehicle’s occupant is long gone, having secured shelter. Within moments, the dull grey sky blackens and Jeff Higgins braces himself as the wind roars past his ears. His heart is hammering in his chest and adrenalin pumps through his veins but he knows he can’t back out now. The beauty of the storm is calling, as is his desire to capture the perfect image. The utter force of the 165 kilometre-per-hour winds tip his vehicle onto two wheels and for a second, Higgins thinks it might spin completely out of control. It doesn’t, and he lives to tell another tale, laughing as he recalls the story. Laugh he may, but the seriousness of what he does has not escaped this 39-year-old Maroochydore resident. Higgins has become a household name since launching his storm chasing Facebook page and website in 2011. He now has 257,000 followers to whom he provides up-to-date weather warnings, information and breathtaking photos. His fascination with Mother Nature began at the impressionable age of eight, when a storm ripped through his home town of Millmerran on the Darling Downs. Now one of the country’s most recognisable chasers, Higgins’ hobby has grown from one born out of interest to a vital community service. In addition to providing valuable information to the general public, he also delivers research data to the Bureau of Meteorology. It’s a far cry from his day job in
civil construction. “Obviously it’s fun,’’ he tells My Weekly Preview. “There is adrenalin, the thrill of the chase and testing your own abilities to forecast it successfully, chase it and then capture it with photos. It’s go, go, go. On the day, we get in and sit down and hang on.’’ Higgins and his team, which includes photography friends and his f ancé Sara, travel hundreds of kilometres around the state armed with cameras, weather instruments and live weather recorders tracking the perfect storm. “For one forecast I can go through a hundred pages of data. I take all of the raw data from 12 models and mash it together,’’ he says. “I have the ability to get us 100 to 200 kilometres within the range of the storm the day before so we arrive 24 hours prior to sort out accommodation. “Once we are within the location the computers get turned off and it comes down to live: what the sky is doing, what’s the temp doing, what are the clouds doing? If it’s Jeff Higgins moving north we head with it and keep tracking the way it’s going, getting constant photos over and over.’’ Capturing the perfect image is the objective for many storm chasers. It is the reason they risk it all. Just ask Mooloolaba photographer Declan Passlow, who spends his days on photo shoots for weddings and working commercial jobs. The 21-year-old feels a thrill of excitement when he hears a storm is
[ 8 ] MY W EEKLY P RE VIE W \ N O VE M B E R 21, 2 0 1 4

on the horizon and grabs his camera to capture the light show. “It’s the fun, the thrill of taking a lightning photo and showing people,’’ he says. “One time when I was on top of Wild Horse Mountain I could see lightning in the distance. “I was there for an hour or so and forks of lightning were coming out of the sky like no tomorrow. There was 50 to 100 kilometres of lightning travelling from Somerset Dam and it was just over my head. “It’s the adrenalin to get the photo. It’s a challenge.’’ Storm chasing as an industry is yet to take off in Australia, but in America it has become a phenomenon. The regions of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska – better known as Tornado Alley – play host to adventure tours with dozens of companies offering tornado chasing holidays for the small price of $3200. It’s not a vacation to be taken lightly, as destructive tornadoes kill 60 people on average each year in the United States. It’s a statistic that makes Higgins hesitate when asked if he would like to venture into the Alley. “Tornadoes are obvious killers. I don’t like the amount of loss of life
On the day, we get in and sit down and hang on
Fast facts 85 per cent of lightning victims are children and young men 70 per cent of all lightning injuries and fatalities occur in the afternoon 10-20 per cent of thunderstorms are severe with winds as strong as 93
kilometres per hour Between f ve and 10 Australians are killed by
lightning strikes each year Thunderstorms average 24 kilometres in diameter A lightning bolt temperature is more than 22,000 degrees Celsius You can be struck by

It is reported between f ve and 10 Australians are killed by lightning strikes each year. Beautiful or not, standing beneath a storm is scary, even for a chaser. “The f rst thing that comes to mind is the raw power of Mother Nature and then the beauty of it,’’ Higgins says. “My main fear is lightning. It’s totally unpredictable and obviously because of the unpredictability it

can trick you at any time and you can be killed at any time. “I have been struck by lightning. It hit the car and a static electricity type spark came through my arm and gave me quite a shock.’’ It’s important people adhere to the safety messages associated with rough weather and avoid being outdoors during a storm. “I can’t emphasise that enough,’’ Higgins says. “With the digital age and lightning camera apps, what we are seeing is an increase in the number of people standing out in the open with phones. People need to be aware.’’ Visit higginsstormchasing.com.
When it comes to severe storms hitting south-east Queensland, it’s not a matter of if, but when. Here are some tips from Higgins Storm Chasing on how to best prepare for the season ahead: • Be aware of severe storm patterns in your area and listen to the radio for advice and warnings • Trim trees, remove overhanging branches and clear gutters and downpipes • Secure loose roof tiles • Prepare an emergency kit including phone numbers, portable radio, torch, spare batteries, f rst-aid kit, timber strips, hammers and nails for temporary repairs • If you have a boat make sure it is secured.
As the storm approaches:
• Secure garden furniture • Disconnect electrical items • Secure all external doors and windows • If driving, stop clear of trees, power lines and rivers.

The weather ahead Weather experts are warning Sunshine Coast residents to brace themselves for a summer of severe storms. If last weekend’s sweltering heat, which produced temperatures as high as 40 degrees Celsius, is a sign of things to come, then the region is in for a scorcher. Meteorologist and WIN News weather presenter Hannah McEwan says the Coast will see a change in weather patterns resulting in
dryer conditions. “There’s a good chance of having a really big and severe storm season,’’ she says. “We did have more of the f ooding rain a few years ago, which prevents (thunderstorms)… we’ve had that heavy rain rather than explosive thunderstorms but after a hot, heavy day we will see that this year.’’ McEwan says there are a couple of factors resulting in the change of patterns. “This time around we are still in neutral

conditions and it looks like we will drift into El Nino. “It’s a good indication of lower than average rainfall. We’re not guaranteed to see that, but that’s what the general weather pattern brings. “The next three months are looking, not only for us but right across Queensland, at warmer than average daytime and overnight temps. It will be a hot summer, but we are expecting dry conditions.’’ For storm warnings visit www.bom.gov.au

Coast chef reflects on his work with rock stars and royalty Words & images: Sam Walker
H
e grew up with Cat Stevens, knocking about on the streets of London’s Soho, played squash with John Cleese and rubbed shoulders with the royals, the rich and the famous. Stephen Pulman doesn’t know where to start when asked about his life and his work. “I’ve had such a huge career,” he says. He is seated at one of the small tables in Le Bistro Jardin, where he makes and serves traditional European cuisine. Its humble facade, tucked away in a quiet stretch of Mooloolaba’s Brisbane Road, belies the rich food experience and the depth of knowledge prepared by possibly one of the most experienced chefs on the Coast. He is the f rst to admit he has had a colourful life and an equally
colourful career, spanning more than f ve decades and several continents. But it could very easily have been quite a different journey. When Cat Stevens (who goes by the name of Yusuf Islam) had a hit with one of his early songs, he asked Pulman to be his manager. It was tempting, but Pulman’s own career was taking off. His passion for food won and an illustrious career followed. He became a head chef at the age of 22 and has held the top position in some of London’s most elite kitchens, including head chef at The Belfry, Mirabelle (which was bought by Marco Pierre White in 1998 but is no longer open) and Annabel’s. In these roles he cooked for members of the British royal family, including Prince Charles and

[ deciding Australia is “the best place on the planet to bring up children”. He opened a restaurant at Montville called Mirabelle and ran it for nine years. He has also taught at TAFE and worked for a company importing machinery for the industry. “But I’m really a chef. I’m more comfortable doing that than anything else.” He started in the industry at the age of 14 with a two-year course at his school where they cooked for the heads of department. He believes food, like wine and lovemaking, are the great loves in life. “Food is a little like theatre – people come to be entertained,” he says. “It shouldn’t be something that you just throw down your throat like a lot of Australians seem to manage. Food is a passion.” And it is a passion Pulman has never grown tired of. Despite his 70th birthday fast approaching, he shows no sign of slowing down. “No way. What for?” he asks.

“I don’t sit down – hardly at all. I still do 12 hours a day and I still train and I’m f t.” But while he can name drop some of the biggest stars of the ‘70s and ‘80s, he says they are people like everyone else. And he is just as happy to meet and cook for you or anyone else who walks through his door. “No I don’t miss it because they’re just people and I love meeting people. “What I do miss every so often, I do miss the depth of culture of Europe, but not a lot.” He also loves helping people and Le Bistro Jardin gives him that opportunity. “I did counselling for four years for Lifeline and that’s a part of having this,” he says, waving his arm around the small restaurant with its brightly coloured scatter cushions and walls adorned with posters, prints and artwork. “It’s more than just being a chef – there’s a whole lot more and that’s not just entertaining people, it’s also helping people.”

Study: how men’s sheds fix men
U
niversity of the Sunshine Coast researchers are taking a close look at how getting men together socially to work on a variety of projects is paying dividends for their health. Head of USC’s School of Health and Sports Sciences, professor John Lowe, is leading a research team that is assessing the physical, mental and sociological benef ts enjoyed by members of the Buderim Men’s Shed. This facility on Mill Road, Buderim, is part of a national community-based, non-prof t and non-commercial organisation that comprises more than 1,100 individual groups. It provides a forum for men of all ages to meet and helps improve the health, wellbeing and social inclusion of members through collaboration on projects such as woodwork, mechanics, gardening, art, computing, sport, metalwork and music. Lowe is working with USC academics Dr Jane Taylor, Dr Mary Kynn and Dr Rachel Cole on the research, which aims to put men’s health in the spotlight. “Men’s health doesn’t get nearly as much attention as it should by mainstream society and this research aims to uncover the impact this group has over the short and longer term for members,” Lowe says. “While this initial study is looking at a local organisation, our goal is to expand this to include a national perspective. “Men’s sheds were inherently unique to Australia. Their success in encouraging men who may feel isolated and alone has led to the
Update: Sekisui House proposal The future of the proposed Sekisui House development at Yaroomba is still in limbo, with the Sunshine Coast Council postponing a decision to determine whether it gets the go-ahead. Sunshine Coast mayor Mark Jamieson says the meeting to consider any major Planning Scheme Amendment was set for early December but has been deferred. “Further information from council technical staff, and separately from Sekisui House, is
still required for council to properly consider any amendment to the Planning Scheme,” Jamieson says. “Any amendment, if it were to be proposed by Council, would involve public exhibition and the consideration of submissions from the community. “We’re not at that point yet and a meeting of council to formally consider a potential amendment to the Planning Scheme for the Yaroomba site is yet to be scheduled for the New Year.”

establishment of similar groups in other countries.” Buderim Men’s Shed VicePresident Barry Cheales said the group is thrilled to be working with USC and is looking forward to seeing the results from the study. “Men’s Sheds do more than work on collaborative projects,” he says. “They help f x men and build communities. “We have more than 270 members and, since we f rst started in 2011, we have had many members experience greater health and happiness. “We hope awareness around the importance of men’s health and specif cally how Men’s Sheds can help will increase throughout the region.”

LIGHT RAIL: LAST CHANCE TO HAVE YOUR SAY Time is running out to have your say on possible route options for the Coast’s proposed light rail network. A number of route options have been put forward for the light rail corridor between Caloundra and Maroochydore. Sunshine Coast mayor Mark Jamieson says the proposed light rail network has the potential to support the lifestyle of residents with benef ts for the community, the environment and the economy.
“Community input on the proposed route options is an important step in the process of identifying a preferred route,” Jamieson says. “We can then progress more detailed feasibility studies to look at engineering, costs and timing.” The route options are available for comment until Friday November 28. For more information on the proposed routes visit lightrail.sunshinecoast.qld.gov. au/route-options.

Fine art finds new home at Moffs Words: Kate Lees
S
unshine Coast local Annie Holloway has created a unique art space in the heart of Moffat Beach. Holloway says her appreciation for the industry sparked the idea to open Holloway Gallery. “I’m just a lover and collector of art,” she says. Following the demolition of a building in Roderick Street, Holloway developed a larger purpose-built space similar to the original building design. Holloway, who has worked in conference coordination, spent time travelling overseas where she formed friendships with artists. “We lined up contracts with the artists [overseas],” she says. The gallery currently hosts nine contemporary local, national and international industry professionals who focus on various styles and techniques including etching, giclee, glass work, lithography, linocut, mixed media, sculpture
and oil painting. American cartoon artist Chuck Jones’ hand signed limited edition Bugs Bunny animation celluloids and Archibald f nalist Barbara Tyson’s paintings also feature at the gallery. The gallery, which opened last month, will occasionally accommodate guest works for solo exhibitions as well. It aims to attract interstate and international visitors. Holloway says the main purpose of the gallery is to foster and support the talent of their artists.
Palmwoods wins a new $2.5M town square A blueprint for greenness, character and prosperity in Palmwoods has been endorsed by the Sunshine Coast Council. Division 5 Councillor Jenny McKay says the Place Making Palmwoods Public Domain Masterplan will deliver the collective vision of the local community. “The Palmwoods community has put a lot of time and effort into shaping this masterplan and it’s so exciting that we can now start to turn that vision into reality,” McKay says. “Throughout the whole consultation process there were more than 300 individual contributions. There was also a 96 per cent acceptance of the masterplan by the community.” President of the Palmwoods Progress Association Mariannje Morice says the masterplan will deliver the community’s wish for the formation of a unique town square. “This was identif ed as the local community’s top priority during the consultation process with council and it will really breathe new life into

If you have a penchant for rip-off designer goods, you might need to think twice before adding them to your collection in the future. Japan’s NEC has unveiled a technology that sniffs out even the most convincing counterfeits by reading microscopic patterns on everything from a luxury purse to a metal bolt. The technology can also be used to trace the origin of mass-produced offerings by reading so-called ‘object f ngerprints’, or three-dimensional surface irregularities, the f rm said. “You can identify offspring that come from the same parental mould,” says Toshihiko Hiroaki, assistant general manager at NEC’s Information and Media Processing Laboratories. The technology could let a customs off cial, for example, snap a smartphone picture of a specif c spot on an object which is then instantly matched - or not - to a manufacturers’ pre-registered image. The trade in counterfeit goods is estimated to reach into the hundreds of billions of dollars a year. The technology is in the testing phase with plans to release a commercial version next year. AAP

T
ornadoes can occur within any severe thunderstorm, although in Australia they are quite rare. On average, 10 to 20 are seen per year, compared to North America’s 1,200. Tornadoes have been observed on every continent except Antarctica. Tornadoes, or ‘twisters’ as they are commonly called, can vary signif cantly in shape, size and colour and in developed areas, can cause catastrophic damage. The most typical form of tornado has a visible rotating funnel extending from a storm cloud to a narrow end on the ground, and often carries debris and dust. The funnel must be in contact with the ground for it to be considered a tornado. On average, tornadoes have wind speed of less than 180 kilometres per hour, travel a few kilometres before dissipating, and are less than 80 metres wide. There are tornadoes much smaller and much bigger than this. In fact, a tornado in Hallem, Nebraska in 2004 was up to four kilometres wide at the ground. The strength of tornadoes is recorded using the Fujita scale,

which rates the damage they cause. This scale starts at F0 which is the weakest, and can damage trees but has little impact on structures. An F5 is the strongest and can easily rip buildings from the ground. There are various types of tornadoes. One we sometimes see off the Sunshine Coast is a waterspout, although there is still some disagreement on whether they are classed as true tornadoes. Waterspouts develop over water and can be quite dangerous to boaties and people practising water sports. They are no threat off the coast as they dissipate soon after moving onto land. The storm season is kicking into full gear across Queensland and by the looks of it, it is going to be a big one. Make sure you keep up with severe thunderstorm warnings as they are issued and be prepared in case of an emergency. For help from the SES call 132 500.

< Bedouin camel rests near the treasury Al Khazneh carved into the rock at Petra, Jordan
FLAVOURS OF JORDAN
The UNESCO World Heritage site of Petra may be the drawcard that attracts visitors to Jordan, but its the deeply embedded tradition of hospitality that makes them want to stay. By Celia Paul
A
s the sun disappears behind the cluttered skyline of Amman and the call to prayer echoes through the city, I’m sitting down to dinner. Here, in the artists’ quarter of Jordan, lies a house wreathed in scented f owers, intricately tiled with mosaics, and fronted by a shady terrace. At Beit Sitti, meaning ‘Grandmother’s house’, I’ve been tackling the basics of Jordanian cooking. After a day of wandering through the markets and shops of Amman, it’s a relief to distinguish between the aromas that have been bombarding
my senses. Cardamom, cumin, fresh mint and cinnamon all play a role in the attempt to recreate some Jordanian classics. We sit down to ouzi: f lo pastry parcels f lled with lamb and vegetables, f avoured with all-spice, cinnamon and cardamom; the charred eggplant dip mouttabal, thickened with tahini paste; homemade bread baked in my host’s house, washed down with fragrant mint lemonade. It’s a different scene from hurried suppers of a standard week night. Here, food is lovingly prepared from scratch and its purpose is to
provide the focal point of a gathering with friends and family. Jordan is a country described by locals as a quiet voice in a noisy neighbourhood, managing to maintain stability despite the turmoil in the Middle East. Its success as a tourist destination has mostly been because of the ancient Nabataean city of Petra – a community of dwellings hewn from the mountains, lost to the world until the 19th century. But there’s so much more to Jordan than that. And before I journey to view one of the most spectacular sights in the Middle East, I’m set to get a taste of life in the rest of the country. More visitors have been drawn by the country’s thriving food scene, from the falafel and shawarma stalls to Rainbow Street, where the city’s teens gather to eat, date and hang out. The multicultural capital is a world away from rural life, but the strong sense of hospitality in Jordanian cooking and entertaining stems from century-old traditions. My next destination helps illustrate just how strong those traditions are. In the Dana Biosphere Reserve, to the south of the country, lies the Feynan EcoLodge – a remote desert outpost reachable only by 4WD. Amid the arid, rocky hills, I sit down with the Bedouin. The nomadic tribes featured in the likes of

Not Starbucks: Bedouin man preparing cardamom-spiced coffee
Lawrence of Arabia have adapted in the face of modern life. The family we are visiting no longer travels daily. Instead, it camps on one spot for a few months, grazing animals until it’s time to move. But at the centre of Bedouin culture lies hospitality, and it’s a key part of their creed that no traveller is turned away. As half-dressed children scamper around us and baby goats graze, the most important of all the Bedouin rituals, the coffee ceremony, gets under way. I’m shown how to behave appropriately during the ritualistic preparation and drinking of the cardamom-spiced coffee, how to bake bread in the ashes of the f re and how to line my eyes with home-made kohl.
Soundtracked by the jangling bells of the goats, we feast by candlelight. After an evening of moon-gazing on the roof terrace, I’m not ready to head back into the modern world. Instead of the mosquito-netted comfort of my simple but elegant room, I choose a mat on the roof under the stars. It is the perfect preparation for the Jordanian big hitter, Petra. It’s a hair-raising journey through the mountainous back roads from Feynan to Petra, with hairpin bends and sheer drops that have scared off the majority of drivers. Gradually the mountains start to take on a pink tinge, the roads become busy, and we enter the red sandstone landscape of Petra.

Half-built, half-carved into the rock, the city is a breathtaking feat of ancient engineering. I enter through a gorge known as the Siq – a long channel lined with huge cliffs. It is here that I catch my f rst glimpse of Petra’s most iconic sight, the Treasury. Carved straight from the pink rock face, over 40 metres high and incredibly detailed, it’s believed the Treasury was built in the early f rst century as the tomb of a Nabataean king. Even in one of the world’s most visited sites, modernity and tradition sit hand in hand. There is no better way to see that than through the Jordanian food scene. Whether you’re indulging in high-end sushi in Amman or are invited to share in a family feast, meals are a social occasion, and the warmth of the hospitality you’re guaranteed to experience is the result of a centuries-old ritual.

1. WHAT?
2. WHY?
The Philae Lander is the f rst robotic spacecraft to land on a comet.
To unlock the mysteries of comets, thought to be one of the original sources of Earth’s water.
5. WHERE IS THE COMET?
3. HOW LONG DID IT TAKE?
The European Space Agency launched the Rosetta mother ship 10 years ago with its very special cargo – the Philae Lander.
4. FREQUENT FLYER POINTS?
TEN THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THE PHILAE LANDER
The rubber duck shaped comet is 510 million kilometres from earth between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It’s so far away radio messages take half an hour to reach Earth.
n o i l 6 bil
The Rosetta mother ship travelled six billion kilometres to deliver the spacecraft to the comet.
6. HOW BIG IS THE LANDER? About the size of an average family washing machine.
7. LANDING?
8. SAY WHAT?
9. HOW MUCH?
Its harpoons failed and the spacecraft bounced a couple of times before landing a kilometre off target.
The Philae’s f rst tweet after landing? ”Finally, I’m stretching my legs after more than 10 years. Landing gear deployed.”
Mission has cost
$1.8
billion
10. FUTURE? Landing in the shadow of a cliff means scientif c study will be restricted by the reduced capacity of its solar-charged batteries.

The flu fighters up the ante
Justin Scattini is from Ord Minnett in Buderim

SL has announced that it will acquire the global influenza vaccine business of Novartis, an international pharmaceutical company, for US$275 million. The business will be integrated into CSL’s existing vaccines business, bioCSL, which in the 2014 financial year netted $125 million in sales of flu vaccines. The transaction is expected to settle late 2015 or early 2016. Evidence was building that CSL needed to either build scale in its f u vaccine business in order to compete effectively or leave the industry. In choosing the f rst path by way of this acquisition, CSL estimates that combining the bioCSL and Novartis f u businesses will establish CSL as the number two player in the $4 billion per annum global market for seasonal f u vaccines. Prior to this, GlaxoSmithKline, Sanof and Novartis were widely accepted to be the top three players in the industry. Its managers estimate that f u vaccine sales

following the integration of Novartis’ business will build to US$1 billion over the next three to f ve years, giving CSL about 25 per cent market share. At the same time, it has bought quality assets and infrastructure, some inventory and an impressive pipeline of four late-stage research and development vaccine projects on the cusp of commercialisation. Filing for these products is expected to occur by the end of 2015. As these products are commercialised, much of the research and development expense associated with the clinical trial programs should fall away and the operating leverage inherent in f u businesses should see margins improve. The management does, however, caution against assuming a lighter research and development spend in the immediate years, given that late-stage studies often require the highest levels of patient enrolment and therefore higher levels of associated costs. At present, bioCSL’s f u manufacturing facilities are based exclusively in Australia, despite distributing vaccines in North America and Europe. The proposed addition of the Novartis f u business brings with it three additional manufacturing sites located at Holly Springs in America, the United Kingdom and Germany. This global network will provide bioCSL with seasonal and pandemic capacity. At full capacity, the Holly Springs facility (which will house the company’s cell culture production capabilities) can produce 50 million seasonal doses. It is expected there will be some early wins at Holly Springs, given that its manufacturing capacity is signif cantly underutilised. Encouragingly, CSL plans to fund the acquisition through surplus cash. Its management commented that the acquisition would not impact the $950 million buyback announced at its recent annual general meeting. Furthermore, the return on investment for this acquisition was estimated to be signif cantly above the company’s cost of capital, despite a continued investment phase over the next three to f ve years.

Paul Vials Head chef at Lemon and Thyme What’s your favourite go-to meal at home? Angel hair pasta with Sirena tuna, broccolini and chilli flakes. What’s your favourite locally-sourced produce and why? The wonderful fresh local seafood – right on our door step. What’s the best advice someone ever gave you? The end of the night ALWAYS comes. What’s the strangest meal request you’ve ever had? Omelette – with no egg. What do you enjoy most about working on the Sunshine Coast? The vibrant atmosphere and positive attitude that’s everywhere. What task do you love being able to hand over to your apprentice and why? Anything that will stretch their knowledge and skill level. Talk us through the process of creating a new dish. Most dishes are guided by the customers/owners and the produce available. I try to get the feel for an establishment and match the food. What do you think Sunshine Coast diners are looking for?
the exploration of world cuisine More and more, healthy eating and understanding the source of ingredients is becoming important. Last meal on earth? Wow that’s a hard one but one dish would be Gateau Marjolaine (layered hazelnut meringue with pistachio and coffee butter cream covered in chocolate ganache). If you’re going to go, eat cake! Piece of equipment you can’t live without? Combi oven makes it all so much easier. What is your inspiration? I’ve been in the industry all my working life. It’s just in the blood and I love the feeling of happy diners. Nothing like a great service to make you want to come back the next day and do it all again, better.

time
How far down the rabbit hole would you like to go? TODD’S GROG – Todd Widdicombe from 92.7 MIX FM’S Todd and Sami gives his opinion on the best brews of the week. I do indulge in a beer every night for its health benef ts. The other f ve beers I have are for my witty comebacks and f awless dance moves. I must confess though, beer can be a tricky son of a gun at times. One minute you’re dancing like a sexy MOFO and the next you’re sans pants, on the f oor making out with a shoe. You’re thinking, “style mastery I got this, I’m all

over it like Vlad Putin, shirtless, on horseback, with a rif e and a combover”. But enough about me, I gotta tell ya I’m so sick of my buddies who just can’t handle a night on the beers anymore. Last weekend, for example, they dropped me three times while carrying me to the taxi. I know right? Not to brag or anything, but writing this little column has made me a tad famous it seems. They know me by name at the booze shop at Brightwater and also at the police station. Of course it’s always everything in moderation friends – for me I only drink beers on days beginning with ‘T’: Tuesday, Thursday, Today, Tomorrow, Tednesday, Thaturday and Thunday. My doctor recently told me to

go easy and watch how much I’m drinking, so I’ve installed a webcam near the beer fridge – thanks doc! Onto more pressing matters, this week’s beverage is genuinely as f ash as Michael Jackson in 1987. I’ve never denied I’m a bandit for a pale ale, but this little beauty I’m presenting for your consideration might just be the pussycats PJ’s when it comes to pales. The White Rabbit Pale Ale comes from the minds of selfproclaimed free thinking Belgian hippies who have somehow blended traditional brewing processes with their wild imaginations and created a most magical Belgian style pale from their home in Healesville, Victoria. This brew features a perfect balance of delicate fruit esters and
subtle spicy notes. What I experienced was nothing short of joy from this quirky and somewhat eccentric ale and I even indulged in some cracked pepper in one tasting, something usually reserved for Belgian White beers. While the White Rabbit PA is far from a session beer, it is a ripper to open the account with and I highly recommend if you love a pale, be it Coopers or 150 Lashes or Little Creatures. Enter the White Rabbit warren and have a crack at this one, ‘coz there’s more chance of Adam Sandler making a new movie that people like, than of you being disappointed. I give the White Rabbit Belgian style Pale Ale a solid 3,5 out of 5 thumbs up.

Stay in the food safety zone
Face time
We’ve discovered a great new way to deal with unwanted facial hair on the Coast. You’ll never want to wax your eyebrows again after trying threading, at a new salon called Graceful Eyes. Threading is an ancient hair removal technique that uses a simple cotton thread to quickly pluck out hair. It’s perfect for those with sensitive skin, as it uses no chemicals or hot wax. And it’s over in a matter of minutes! Graceful Eyes also offers eyebrow and eyelash tinting, eyelash extensions, henna designs and Indian head massages. Find Graceful Eyes near the ANZ entrance, right next to Flight Centre, at Kawana Shoppingworld or call 0424 456 277.
Keep your lips kissable Need a new lip gloss for summer? We are loving Revlon’s Super Lustrous gloss, $21.95. Available in 12 shades, it contains SPF 15 and light-ref ecting spheres to add a super shine to your perfect pout.

fitness tip
Did you know there are an estimated 4.1 million cases of food poisoning in Australia each year? The reason? Many people think it’s OK to leave hot food sitting on the bench. Dr Michael Eyles, chair of the Food Safety Information Council, says, “The temperature danger zone for food lies between f ve and 60 degrees because in this zone, bacteria in food can grow and toxins can accumulate to unsafe levels within a few hours. We should always refrigerate or freeze cooked food that isn’t going to be eaten straight away and keep perishable food refrigerated under f ve degrees.” Follow these six food safety tips: 1. Don’t over-cater. Prepare food as closely as you can to the time you will serve it. 2. Keep your fridge at or below f ve degrees and make sure cold air can circulate by not overf lling it. 3. Read the label on packaged food to see if it needs to be stored in the fridge or freezer. 4. Keep hot food at or over 60 degrees. 5. Freshly cooked food that won’t be eaten straight away should have the temperature reduced quickly. Divide into containers in small portions and put it into the fridge or freezer as soon as it stops steaming. 6. If you’re transporting perishable food, always use a cooler bag with a frozen block.

Champagne on a beer budget WORDS Peter Atkinson
T
hirty years ago, the only people who ever got behind the wheel of the legendary Audi S1 were the world’s elite rally drivers. The German maker’s newly-minted S1 Sportback is not, like its namesake, a purposebuilt rally car. It doesn’t have a massively powerful f ve-cylinder, 370 kilowatt turbocharged engine, nor does it snarl and growl and crackle like a Formula 1 racer. The new S1 is very different from the car that helped make Audi’s iconic Quattro all-wheel-drive technology a household name with a string of dominating victories in the World Rally Championship back in the 1980s. Based on the spunky little A1 Sportback, the baby of the Audi range for a couple of years, today’s S1 might not ever be seen on the rally track.
Yet it felt completely at home on Tasmania’s Baskerville Racetrack when Audi unveiled the latest, and most affordable, member of its Audi Sport line of performance machines. Sneaking (barely) beneath the $50,000 barrier, the S1 Sportback puts that legendary Quattro grip and handling, plus a liberal dose of turbo-charged performance, into the hands of an entirely new audience for Audi. S1 buyers will be mostly males, aged in their early to mid-20s and, according to Audi’s Australian general manager Andrew Doyle, are most likely to become loyal buyers of the Audi S and RS models well into their motoring lives. That helps put into context the importance of this little machine in Audi’s ambitious sales strategy. “At $49,900 it brings a new entry point to the
Audi Sport performance range and is the most affordable S-model ever,” Doyle says. “It’s also the f rst time that Quattro has been available in this segment.” Doyle predicts it will spur further growth in Audi’s record-setting sales surge, tipped to see the brand sell more than 19,000 vehicles in 2014. Audi’s impressive growth in Australia will see it jump from the 18th ranking in the marque’s worldwide sales a year ago to 14th, and possibly 13th by the end of the year. So what about this alluring and punchy little S1 Sportback? Well, if a morning’s drive around the twisty, hilly roads south of Hobart, and a vigorous session of trackwork at the equally twisty and undulating Baskerville circuit is any guide, it’s going to win plenty of fans. It combines a more than adequate two-litre, turbo-charged four-cylinder TFSI engine pumping out 170 kilowatts and a brawny 370 Newton metres of torque with nimble, surefooted handling and the kind of interior and exterior f nishes we’ve come to expect from this maker. Those power f gures are impressive enough – the same engine, in slightly sharper tune, drives the f recracker S3 Sportback as well – but in a car weighing just 1340 kilograms it means a very quick and responsive combination. The engine itself, built mostly of lightweight alloys, weighs just 148 kilograms despite its lusty outputs. The S1 itself is pocket-sized. Imagine a Fiat 500 with the power of a Holden Commodore and you start to get the picture. A sprint to 100 kilometres per hour in just 5.9 seconds is part of the equation, but that hefty helping of torque is equally impressive in the huge f exibility it offers. The S1 will accelerate, in sixth gear, from just over 1000 revs per minute and 50 kilometres per hour right through its extensive rev range, topping

[ out at a maximum speed of 250 kilometres per hour. Its mid-range acceleration is a feature, giving it plenty of punch when overtaking or scampering out of slow corners and up hilly sections. The power is delivered in silky, linear fashion, put eff ciently to the ground through all four wheels. While not outrageously tricked up, the S1 enjoys a 25 millimetre lower ride height than its A1 siblings, with bigger alloy wheels and quad exhaust pipes the biggest clues to the potent package that lurks beneath that cute exterior.
Inside, there’s a chunky f atbottomed sports steering wheel and superb leather sports seats. It will be offered in a range of special colours with three contrasting roof-colour choices. Standard kit includes the Audi Drive Select system allowing a choice of Eff ciency, Auto or Dynamic modes (the latter stiffening the suspension and unleashing more sound and fury from the engine) – as well as Xenon headlights, climatecontrol air, electric windows and mirrors, auto wipers and a superb Bose 465-Watt, 14-speaker audio system. The car’s personal soundtrack, too, is enhanced by a sound actuator in the S1’s exhaust system. A series of enhancement packages – including Quattro interior and exterior styling packs and an S-Performance kit, range from $2490 to $4990 on top of the asking price. That will mean most
people will fork out about $60-grand to put this car on the road, putting it near the top of the premium compact market. Even in standard guise, though, this is a very appealing little machine. Perhaps the only drawback is the lack of an auto transmission – it’s available in six-speed manual only – a pity since Audi leads the way in the quality of its super-quick, supereff cient dual-clutch transmissions. On the plus side, the S1’s clutch and gearbox are light and slick and its rewarding, beautifully-balanced driving characteristics keep the driver fully engaged. Icing on the cake? It sips a modest 7.1 litres per 100 kilometres while delivering performance to mock many bigger, more credentialed sports models. As for the original S1? Well, Audi were kind enough to roll out a fully-restored, working version of the 1980s rallying icon, courtesy of a Melbourne-based car enthusiast who bought it recently for $165,000, for some hot laps around Baskerville. Talk about turning back the clock.

A step closer to cracking the world land speed record
The new all-wheel-drive Jaguar F-TYPE R coupé this month ensured the Bloodhound SSC World Land Speed Record program passed a signif cant high-speed testing milestone. The test marks the start of a major technical partnership between Jaguar and The Bloodhound Project, with the ultimate aim of raising the world land speed record above 1,000 miles per hour (1,609 kilometres per hour) and to help inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers. The record stands at 763.035 miles per hour and was set by Andy Green in Thrust SSC in 1997. Andy will drive the Bloodhound Supersonic.
On the relatively soft surface of the Hakskeen Pan desert in the Northern Cape of South Africa, the stability of the F-TYPE R coupé and its dynamic ability – it will reach 96.6 kilometres per hour in just 3.9 seconds with a limited top speed of 299.3 kilometres per hour – enabled the successful completion of a vital communications test for the Bloodhound SSC team. “Our target with engineering the all-wheel drive F-TYPE was to maintain the engaging rear-drive character that’s so important to Jaguar sports cars, yet offer even greater dynamic capability,” says Ian Hoban, Vehicle Line director, Jaguar. “The result is a controllable, exploitable and blisteringly fast performance car in all weather and road conditions.” The combined closing speed of almost 700 miles per hour enabled the successful test of the system that will allow communications between the ground crew and Green, which will run for the f rst time on the Hakskeen desert in 12 months.
WORD ON THE STREET Audi gets arty Audi has partnered with Queensland Gallery of Modern Art as part of its Future Beauty: 30 Years of Japanese Fashion exhibition. The interior of an A3 Cabriolet has been transformed into a piece of art, through the use of bold colours and futuristic paneling as a reference to traditional Japanese dress. The exhibition is open until February 2015.

Real estate climbing back Loans for new homes are on the increase - and the trend is set to continue.
T
he latest figures on new home lending from the Australian Bureau of Statistics are reflecting what those in the property industry have been saying for months – there is renewed activity and interest in the real estate market. Those new home f gures reached a fresh high for the cycle in the September 2014 quarter, reports the Housing Industry Association. “Apart from the stimulus-fuelled period around the GFC, lending for new housing is at its highest in 20 years,” says HIA Chief Economist, Harley Dale. “That is a healthy result in terms of the short-term outlook for new home construction. The demand for new housing ref ects activity from f rst-home buyers,
trade-up owner-occupiers, and investors.” Dale adds, “The aggregate number of loans for f rst-home buyers is still very low from a historical perspective. Policy reform is vital to turning this situation around and needs to be aimed at the excessive and ineff cient taxes and regulation levied on housing,” adds Dale. “First-home buyer loans reached conspicuous troughs in the early months of 2011, 2013, and 2014, although these levels were 12 per cent higher than the record low in the early 1990s recession. Loan numbers have only lifted by 5.1 per cent from this latest 2014 trough.” BOQ Chancellor Park and Mooloolaba owner-manager Brenden Brial’s lending centre operates out of
More new homes In the month of September 2014 HIA’s seasonally adjusted estimate shows increases in the number of owner-occupier loans for new housing in NSW (+5.1 per cent), Queensland (+4.9 per cent), South Australia (+8.5 per cent), the Northern Territory
(+17.8 per cent), and the Australian Capital Territory (+14.6 per cent). Elsewhere, the number of new home loans declined by: 1.6 per cent in Victoria; 1.1 per cent in Western Australia; and 11.3 per cent in Tasmania.

I have noticed it has been building steadily for six to eight months and particularly in the last three to four months. I am as busy as I have ever been in 15 years up here on the Coast BOQ’s Brenden Brial
Mooloolaba. He tells MPP that these statistics ref ect what he is seeing in the local market. “I have noticed it has been building steadily for six to eight months and particularly in the last three to four months. I am as busy as I have ever been in 15 years up here on the Coast.” He says as well as new lending he is helping out those who are ref nancing and “taking advantage of low interest rates”. “First-home owners are still pretty thin on the ground. Being able to come up with f ve per cent deposit plus all costs is diff cult. Generally they [Brial’s clients] tend to be people upgrading their owneroccupied residences or buying an investment.” He adds that he is also seeing those who are hoping to buy a commercial property through their superannuation fund. He says there is quite a lot of demand for “lowerend commercial properties for mum and dad business to get in”. Being their own landlord is appealing for these small business owners. Of the renewed activity, Brial says, “I think people are feeling more
comfortable given where interest rates are at.” He says most of his clients aren’t new arrivals to the Coast. “I would say it is predominantly locals. Many people move up and rent for a while f rst. I am getting people who are buying their f rst home on the Sunshine Coast but have been renting here for two or three years.” He adds it is a good sign that the market is warming up and that prices have already bottomed. “I would say most people are buying now because they realise it won’t get any cheaper.” Those buying investment properties are now seeing their own homes stabilise and even increase in value and “they are getting back some of that equity”, making investing more viable and appealing. Brial will be watching the market with interest in the coming months. “December/January has tended to be very slow for quite a few years as tradies and solicitors go on holidays. But this December/January will probably be the best I have ever had in 12 years.” M Y W EEK LY PREVIEW.C OM .A U

ARIES [Mar 21-Apr 20] Love, friendship, learning, adventure and fun are all mixed together this week. If you make the most of your charm, then you’ll be able to get what you want. But don’t let your enthusiasm for a new project overtake your ability to get the job done.
TAURUS [Apr 21-May 21] It will be hard to run away from relationship issues this week and it will also be difďŹ cult to connect with loved ones, as Saturn stymies communication. Attached Taureans – are you pulling your weight? Single bulls – look for love with someone older.
GEMINI [May 22-Jun 21] Early to mid-week looks restrictive and demanding, as Saturn piles the pressure on and you worry about commitments. Come Friday you’re feeling much more buoyant, as Mercury [your ruling planet] moves into the energetic sign of Sagittarius.
CANCER [Jun 22-Jul 23] Saying the ďŹ rst thing that’s on your mind is a recipe for trouble this week. A strategic approach is the safe and sensible way to go. With Mercury moving through your job zone it’s time to communicate more clearly with colleagues.
LEO [Jul 24-Aug 23] Be honest when dealing with others this week. If you waste time then you’ll just end up in a sea of confusion. Your motto is from birthday great Mark Twain “Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.�
VIRGO [Aug 24-Sep 23] Expect close relationships to be a mineďŹ eld mid-week, as misread motives lead to irrational behaviour and silly misunderstandings. You’ll quickly pick up the aws in people’s plans but it would be wise to spend less time criticising and more listening.
LIBRA [Sep 24-Oct 23] Your creative efforts are appreciated in your community, as you bring together a group of people. Think things through carefully and consider your options before you speak your mind, otherwise you could end up with a misunderstanding on your hands.
SCORPIO [Oct 24-Nov 22] Are you obsessed about a personal issue? Avoid being short-sighted Scorpio. A calm, considered approach [with a view to the long-term] is the clever way to go. And with Saturn moving slowly through your sign, have the strength to be the authentic you.
SAGITTARIUS [Nov 23-Dec 21] Sagittarians are curious creatures and this week’s stars encourage you to be even more adventurous than usual. You’re also in the mood to shop, as you experiment with your physical appearance. So it’s time to update your wardrobe or purchase beauty products.
CAPRICORN [Dec 22-Jan 20] Your Capricorn mind is like a steel trap, as the Mercury/ Saturn hook up helps you power through projects. Don’t miss the opportunity to get heaps done. With Mars marching through your sign, you’re in fast forward mode – there’s no turning back!
AQUARIUS [Jan 21-Feb 19] Many Aquarians have experienced a ďŹ nancial disappointment over the last few months. But are you facing the facts, or putting a naive Neptunian spin on what really happened? Make sure you get your head out of the sand and learn from your mistakes.
PISCES [Feb 20-Mar 20] Have you got a very high mountain to climb? Don’t give up and throw in the towel half-way. Be inspired by Winston Churchill “Never never never quit.� It’s also time to utilise your poetic mind via imaginative ideas, creative brainstorming and delicious daydreaming.

SURF REPORT with MWP’s man in the water
He certainly found his mojo and was on fire - Julian Wilson was almost unstoppable in Hawaii last week - he seemed to spend more time in the air then on the water. It seems unfair he had to settle for second – but Dusty Payne deserved the win. The tour moves on to Sunset starting Monday. You can catch it live through the ASP site. Now the bad news….yep, groundhog day. No waves seems to get everyone cranky so what does one do? Golf? Fishing? Fixing stuff? Walking around Bunnings buying stuff you don’t need? Setting up the Christmas tree? Whatever it is it won’t be surfing… so be happy! It will confuse your friends.
FISHING REPORT with Wayne Nilsson from Maroochydore Fishing World
ESTUARY: Flathead are taking plastics and live whiting along the Twin Waters area of the Maroochy River right down to the bar. There are plenty of whiting on the drift from Channel Island to Chambers Island using yabbies and worms. You can find tailor and trevally at the motorway bridge pylons using lures and pillies. The recent very hot weather has brought on the mangrove jack in good sizes. SURF: Bream are on the top of the tide around the exposed rocks at Mudjimba with fowl gut the best bait. There’s whiting around the Maroochy Bar area using worms. Pincushion is returning jew on big baits. OFFSHORE: Caloundra 6 to12 Mile is returning parrot, sweetlip and squire. Currimundi and Coolum have spotted mackerel, but they are moving around with the bait schools. Better quality reef fish are out on the Barwon Banks using pillies and squid. Spanner crab season closes on 20th November for 1 month. FRESHWATER: The best time of the year for bass and golden perch at Somerset and Wivenhoe. Both Baroon Pocket and Lake McDonald are also returning good bass along the weed line. Borumba is firing for togas on fly.
be free to do everything you ever wanted to do After you have made the move to Caloundra Rise you’ll wish you had done it earlier as the peace of mind it gives you frees you up to go and do all the things you have been waiting to do. Just a short distance to magnif cent beaches and picturesque hinterland. A community style living with regular events, classes and get togethers.
