Scalpers on notice
From the streets to the Factory Theatre
Ten wakes up!
Auction fi gures soar across inner west p.3
E vent or ganisers and the Sta te G overn-ment are sick of tick et re-sellers makin g big profi t mar gins and rippin g off con-sumers, and have warned they will crack
down on scalpers.NSW Minister for F air Tradin g, An thony R ob-
erts this w eek announced new la ws to protec t consumers f rom ticket sc alping and tick et f raud when buying tickets to major sport, concert or en-tertainment events.
Mr Roberts said the NS W G overnment w ill set clear r ules so fans are made a ware of the terms and conditions when either selling or purchasing a ticket on the secondary market.
“These new la ws w ill improve transparenc y in the mark etplace, protec t consumers and allo w the ev ent or ganiser to e nforce their te rms and conditions to protec t g enuine fans from tick et scalping and fraud,” Mr Roberts said.
“These reforms have the support of the nation’s sporting bodies because regrettably, genuine fans have been ripped off b y tick et sc alpers ei ther charging sky -high prices, or sellin g tick ets tha t don’t actually exist.
“Even if a purchased ticket is genuine, the ticket may still be worthless, if the event owner cancels the ticket for bein g resold in breach of i ts terms and conditions.
“Often the perpetra tor simply disappears lea v-ing the consumer out of pocket.”
Mr Roberts said previous attempts to stamp out ticket scalping had not really had an y major im-pact, and it was time for a long-term solution.
“Event or ganisers ha ve tried to ad dress ticket scalping with varying success by allocating tickets
to sporting clubs, limi ting the number of tick ets that can be bought by any one person and staging the release of tickets,” he said.
As part of the proposed new la ws, re-sellers must pro vide a clear and legible imag e of the ticket, showing the tick et number, row and sea t number but with the barcode obscured.
They must also include details of the terms and conditions of sale of the ticket, and notice of any condition which allo ws the tick et to be c an-celled if it is resold.
Tough new rules aim to stop scalpers making big profits on tickets

Police to target speeding this weekend in high visibility operation across the state
night and w ill r un un til 11.59pm on Monday, October 7.
Double demeri ts w ill be in place for speeding, along with seatbelt and mo-torcycle-helmet offences.
Officers w ill be out targeting danger-ous dri ving on our roads, foc using on drink-driving, speedin g, fa tigue and seatbelt offences.
There have been 33 less dea ths on our roads this y ear, compared to the same time last year.
Assistant Commissioner J ohn Hartley, Traffic and Highway Patrol Commander,
said drivers need to heed the warnin gs before heading out on the roads.
“The Labour Day long weekend will see an inc reased number of motor-ists startin g their journey to and f rom planned ev ents, as w ell as returnin g from school holida ys w ith family and friends in the c ar,” Assistan t Commis-sioner Hartley said.
“We are commi tted to driving down the road toll and will be targeting speed-ing drivers this weekend. Those reckless enough to risk others’ lives can expect to feel the full force of the law.”

EDITOR'S DESK
Drugs crisis rolls on and there are deeper questions still to be asked
Sometimes it is not the answ ers that get us into trouble, but the questions.
The questions w e don’t want to ask, the ques-tions we fail to ask, and the questions w e know we need to ask of ourselves.
One of the big news stories of 2013 has been the ASADA scandal in Australian sport – a story that took a very significant twist last week when NRL star Sandor Earl appeared on ‘ The Footy Show’ to tell his story.
Earl, f or t hose n ot i nterested i n f ootball, w as the first NRL pla yer to be handed an inf raction notice in this whole ASADA scandal, over his use of the banned substance CJC-1295.
He made various claims durin g his in terview about his former club, the Panthers, and the club itself has responded widely to those.
The righ ts and wron gs of all of this w ill be sorted out by smarter and more involved people than myself. But I do want to make a few points.
Firstly, I commend S andor E arl for the wa y he spok e and presen ted himself on ‘ The Footy Show’ last Thursday.
Anyone who believes the stereotype that rugby league players are all c avemen earning millions of dollars a year should do themselv es a fa vour and find a copy of the interview online.
Secondly, I commend the Panthers for their re-sponse – i t was sw ift, via a Warren Wilson press conference the ne xt da y and v ia Phil G ould’s
quite emotional column in The Sun-Herald over the weekend that followed.
The question tha t probably hasn ’t been ask ed enough is how Stephen Dank was allowed to mix so freely with Sandor Earl in the first place?
If we accept that Dank was not employed by the Panthers (and w e ha ve no reason not to ), then why was the blok e at training long enough and regularly enough to form a bond with Earl?
One can only hope tha t this stor y proves how closely NRL clubs need to k eep a firm ey e on every aspect of their operations. The who, what, where, when and why needs to be asked of every department and every situation.
And of S andor Earl, the questionin g over why he kept so much of this f rom the club ’s doctors and staff has not been nearly intense enough.
Earl clearly wan ts people to accept tha t he wasn’t supported enough by Penrith, but admits he played a role in k eeping secrets – you cannot have it both ways.
But perhaps the best question of all, and a question tha t has a whole ran ge of loaded an-swers, was asked by a very emotional Jan Earl – Sandor’s mum. She v ery simply ask ed who was advising kids like her son.
One of the big questions here surrounds wh y Sandor Earl did wha t he did. One g ets the feel-ing it wasn't to cheat. Rugby league may one day find some troubling answers.
I com-mend the Panthers for their response

H ome owners in the Marrickville Local G overnment Area are taking advantage of a hot prop-erty mark et w ith the number
of auction listings up by an incredible 25.7 per cent on last year.
Australian P roperty M onitors (APM) figures sho w tha t in 2012 the number of homes listed for auc tion betw een J une to August was 801. In the same time this year, the number of homes listed for auc-tion had climbed to 1007.
Senior E conomist Dr Andrew W ilson from APM said the numbers were an indi-cator of the gro wing popularity of the in-ner west region.
“The inner w est continues to be one of Sydney’s hottest housing market regions. Despite typic ally pro viding the highest number of auc tion listings of an y of S yd-

ney’s regions, the inner west also provides the highest clearance rates,” he said.
Mr W ilson said w ith the property mar-ket gaining in momentum with buyers looking to g et in to the mark et, i t wasn ’t surprising for sellers to use auctions to sell their homes.
Ed T ancred, S ales Manag er for Ra y
White Marrickville and Dulw ich Hill, said the number of buy ers from other parts of Sydney lookin g to purchase in the Mar-rickville area from other areas was push-ing up the prices.
“Our offices are g etting 30- 40 per cen t of North Shore and Inner East people who are selling their apartments and choosing
to live in this area,” he told the Inner City Weekender this week.
Property is also being snapped up fast.“In Harrison Street, Marrickville we were
looking to sell a t around the $8 00,000 mark at auction. It was sol d prior to auc-tion for $1,000,000 and in only four da ys of being on the market,” Mr Tancred said.

Marrickville Council has produced a free Inner West Seniors Road Safety Calendar that promotes road safety amongst older drivers and pedestrians.
Older road users are particularly vulnerable on our roads and are more
likely to suffer serious injury from even minor accidents. Between 2007 and 2011 13 per cent of all casualties were over 60.
“The population of Marrickville is getting older,” said Mayor of Marrick-ville, Jo Haylen.
“In 1991 more than nine per cent of the population were over 65. 10 years later, this had increased to 10.6 per cent. And forecasts show that by 2022 it’s expected that about 13 per cent of our population will be over 65 years.”
The 2014 Inner West Seniors’ Calen-dar aims to prevent accidents by rais-ing older people’s awareness of road safety issues.
A road safety message is displayed on each month of the calendar along with a number of handy hints that can help prevent accidents and reduce risks.
Local residents can pick up a copy of the calendar from Council.
NSW Police are urging Sydneysiders to plan ahead as more than 1.7 million people are expected to descend on Sydney to celebrate the International Fleet Review and a range of activities over the long weekend.
Operation Coventry is the high-visibility policing operation for the International Fleet Review and will see additional general duties, plain clothes and specialist police patrol the Sydney CBD and harbour to provide a safe and enjoyable time for all spectators.
The operation will include General Duties police, with assistance from specialist commands including Police Transport Command, Traffic and Highway Patrol Command, Public
Order & Riot Squad, Operations Sup-port Group, Licensing Police, Mounted Unit, Dog Unit and others.
Commander of Operation Coventry, Superintendent Craig Sheridan, said this is an event not unlike New Year’s Eve. He said police will have additional officers out and about to ensure every-one is safe.

N ew Mayor Jo Haylen has set her sights on becomin g a “leader for the people ” and deli vering the best outcomes for all in the
Marrickville L ocal G overnment Area in her tenure for the next 12 months.
Having e xperienced poli tics in her uni-versity da ys, Cr Ha ylen understands the intricate na ture of the wa y poli tics plays out at all levels.
But she’s also tasted poli tical life in the biggest ways in Canberra.
“I worked for the federal g overnment in Canberra where y ou spend most of y our time in meetin gs w ith bureauc rats, who talk to other bureauc rats. You don’t hear from people first hand,” she said.
But all of tha t is about to chan ge and she’s lookin g for ward to communic ating with people first hand.

“Residents don’t care about what politi-cal label you wear, they care about getting things done. S eeing their parks are up-graded, the footpa th is fix ed and essen-tial services are delivered to them,” said Cr Haylen, who is Marrickv ille’s youngest ever female mayor.
And unlik e the poli tics outside of lo -cal g overnment, Cr Ha ylen relishes the thought of working with her fellow Coun-cillors no matter what side of the political fence they may stand.
“I’ve worked really w ell with my North Ward Counc illors Mark Gar diner who’s a Liberal Counc illor and w ears that badge, Sylvie Ellsmore who w ears the Green badge and myself as the Labor Council-lor. We’ve worked really well together on many projects,” she said.
“Local government is the level where so many issues are shared. I’m excited about providing leadership to w ork w ith all Councillors to see good things come about for residents of Marrickville.”
She said the k ey to enhanc ing the char-acteristics of Marrickv ille is to buil d rela-tionships betw een residen ts. P roviding open spaces for residents to communicate with each other is one wa y the commu-nity will be strengthened.
“Marrickville Council is the v ehicle that provides the support. M y vision is takin g the best parts of Marrickville, and growing the charac teristics tha t mak e i t a spec ial place to live,” she said.
She said what Council did best was deliv-er to those who need it most. She wants to continue to deliver for all, whether it’s re-sources for communi ty groups, chil dcare for families or spaces to come together.

W ith Christmas only 12 w eeks away, the D epartment of Fair Tradin g are put ting re-tailers on notice about the
big dan gers of stockin g to ys tha t coul d harm children.
Fair Tradin g Commissioner, R od Sto we said more than $100,000 in fines and costs have been handed out b y courts to 17 dis-count toy sellers to date this year.
“This is completely unacceptable partic-ularly given 15 ha ve been fined before b y Fair Trading and six have previously been prosecuted in court,” he said.
“Non-compliant toys have the poten tial to do serious harm to young children.”
Toys tha t don ’t comply are susceptible to choking children from small breakable parts if ingested, and non- compliant pro-jectile toys can cause serious ey e injuries

One of the stores tha t are named b y the Department of Fair Trading is Marrickville variety store Ex cellent P rice, which was fined over $10,000 in April of this year.
Five items were listed as not comply ing with Australian safety standards.
Store Manager, Peter Wang said he had removed all fi ve items after the fine was imposed and reassures loc al c ustomers that he has complied with the Department of Fair Trading.
“I’ve paid the fine and removed the stock that was considered to be dan gerous,” Mr Wang told the Weekender.
“I no lon ger sell the stock. I ha ve com-plied with Fair Trading.”
Mr W ang said he had requested F air Trading to v isit his store again and do an
inventory of wha t did not comply w ith Australian standards.
“I’m waiting for the D epartment of Fair Trading to rev isit m y shop just in c ase there is something else that doesn’t com-ply. I am only too happ y to comply w ith the authori ties w ith such ma tters,” Mr Wang said.

Slow driver catches the eye of local police officers
About 12.40am last Friday morning police were performing a routine patrol when they observed a vehicle travelling very slowly. Due to the manner of driving police turned to follow the vehicle and at this time the vehicle accelerated and sped off. Police activated their warning devices and stopped the vehicle.
The driver was subjected to a roadside breath test that returned a positive result.
As a result the driver was arrested and taken to Newtown Police Station for a breath analysis.
The breath analysis returned a high range reading.
Police immediately suspended the driver’s licence and charged the driver with high range PCA.
Items stolen in brazen Marrickville robbery
About 10pm on Saturday, September 28 a female was putting shopping items in her car which was parked on Arthur Street near the intersection of Illawarra Road, Marrickville. Whilst doing this she had placed a number of items including a camera, iPad and Mac Book next to the car on the ground that she had purchased earlier in the day.
During this time a male has walked past the car and grabbed the items on the ground. The victim chased the male along Arthur Street and lost sight of him at Liv-ingstone Road. The male was described as wearing a hooded jumper and jeans. No further description was given.
Anyone with information about this incident is urged to contact police.
Property stolen during daylight break and enter
Sometime between 12.30pm and 2.30pm on Monday, September 30 unknown person/s have gained entry to a house in David Street, Marrickville, near the intersection of Marrickville Road.
Once inside the premises the person/s have rummaged through one of the rooms of the property.

N ot sure wha t to do w ith your unwanted tec hnological pieces of master y tha t ha ve become obsolete?
Australian Bureau of Sta tistics (ABS) figures show Australians are the largest users of elec tronic media, w ith e-Waste one of the fastest growing types of waste.
Consider this: • 17 million telev isions and 37 million
computers have been sent to landfill (figures up to 2008)
• 99 per cent of Australian households have at least one television set, while 55 per cent have a second set
• Of the 15. 7 million computers tha t reached their ‘end of life’ in Australia in 2007-08, only 1.5 million w ere re-cycled – that’s less than 10 per cent.
• Australians buy more than four mil-lion computers and three million tel-evisions annually.
If you’re one of the four million who in-vests in a new television, and don’t know where or how to get rid of your used set, Reverse Garbage has the solution.
At Mid day on W ednesday, O ctober 9 Reverse Garbag e on A ddison R oad a t Marrickville will join forces with Reverse e-Waste to launch a recycle service.
Effectively that means people can take along their unused or un wanted elec-tronic e quipment a nd l eave i t t here f or recycling or to be placed a t Reverse Gar-bage to be sold to the public if i t is in ac-ceptable working order.
Reverse Garbag e CEO , Narelle Man tle said the streets needed to be cleaned up from this type of pollution.
“More and more we are seeing e-Waste litter our streets, w e are proud to w ork with Reverse e-Waste to offer our com-munity the abili ty to safely dispose of their e-Waste,” she said.
“Items collected through our e-Waste drop off poin t will be a vailable for c rea-tive r euse, o r a lternatively r ecycled b y Reverse e-Waste.”
If i tems such as V CR’s, D VD pla yers, mobile phones, P Cs and laptops are no longer needed, drop them off at Reverse Garbage’s premises a t 8/ 142 A ddison Road, Marrickville.
A full list of items that Reverse Garbage will accept can be found on their website www.reversegarbage.org.au

A crowd of up to 80,000 is expected topack into ANZ Stadium this Sunday to watch the National Rugby League (NRL) Grand Final.
The season is about to come to an end with Manly and the Roosters to
battle it out for the ultimate prize in Australian rugby league.
With such a big crowd in attendance, Marrickville residents planning to at-tend the big game are being advised to take public transport to the venue.
Public transport is included in the match ticket price.
Extra trains and buses will be run-ning to ANZ Stadium from right across Sydney with transport officials hoping people will leave the car at home.
The exact crowd figure for Sunday is a mystery given tickets went on sale months ago, with many thousands purchased by South Sydney Rabbitohs supporters, who expected their team to be there on the big day.
The Rabbitohs went down to Manly last Friday night, however, and many thousands of tickets have been placed on Gumtree and eBay.
The NRL is encouraging league fans who have tickets to get along to the game no matter what, as it is one of the great days and spectacles in Aus-tralian sport.

But Natalie Fraumeni, a Year 12 studen t from Santa Sabina College Strathfield, takes i t in her stride and sa ys strategy is the key.
The 18-year-old aspiring journalist said pressure to perform w ell c ame f rom the individual themselves.
“You tend to put pressure on y ourself because you need to achieve the required mark to g et in to the course tha t y ou choose,” she said.
Part of her stra tegy was to study in blocks. She chose to study in the mornin g and in the evening, but always makes sure she has downtime.

Her study regime includes doin g prior exam papers.
“Doing prac tice exams are a g ood indi-cation of what to expect in the HSC, so I’d recommend doing them,” she said.
“There are tw o forms o f practice exams that I do. Text book versions and I also at-tempt past exam papers.”
Natalie said w ith the help of a tutor she was able to put a number of strategies in place that created a holistic approach.
“I must admit I used to be a stress head and w orked on a stra tegy to sta y c alm,” she said.
Tutor John George from InFlow Educa-tion in Five Dock said he used a four step system that guaranteed success for her.
“We teach studen ts ho w to learn more in less time and exam techniques for zero stress,” he said.
Natalie’s HSC survival tips:• Ease yourself into the experience• Adopt good study habits • Do practice exams • Put together good summary notes• Ease the pressure on yourself• Exercise and have down time

These days, walking from one store and into another can be the difference between spending $100, $1,000 or even $10,000. I recently went shopping for a new handbag and in my head, I had a rough idea of what I wanted it to look like but I was open to inspiration. I trudged all day long through store after store, trying to find the ‘right’ one but by the end of the day I was so mentally and physically exhausted that I had to give up.
It wasn’t the sheer amount of bags that exhausted me, although there were thousands, it was the range in price that I just couldn’t get my head around.
In one department store, I could buy a handbag for as little as $20 and one for over $10,000 and that’s not to
mention the bags that were ‘price upon application’. For some people, spending a lot on fashion is no
drama but what about the average people out there, the ones who can’t afford to just spend wherever they want to – how do we choose what to pull out the big
bucks on and what we scrimp on? Variety stores like Kmart and Target are
great for picking up those basic items at a reasonable price but there are some things you simply can’t do cheap.
The first is shoes. I was always a serial cheap shoe-buyer and I loved it but that
was until I pulled out my wallet for a pair of decent shoes. I have never looked back – decent shoes are better for our feet and are much more comfortable.
You can’t get away with a cheap suit. A cheap suit will stand out next to a good one, and not for any positive reasons. If you spend a little extra to get something that fits right and has quality stitching and lining, it will last a lot longer too.
Leather jackets and jeans are also worth the extra cash!

September 3oth –
October 16th
Focus on adventure and philosophy, as everything from interna-tional affairs to spiri tual questions w ill tax your mind. Your de-
sire to travel will be boosted, as indeed w ill your need to e xpand your knowledge, therefore, allow yourself encounters with new ideas. Mer-cury is retrograde and setbacks and problems at work are likely.
AQUARIUS JANUARY 21 TO FEBRUARY 19
Focus on thinkin g posi tive and don ’t allo w y ourself to g et sucked into a negativity vortex! No matter what the situation is
keep calm and tr ust your intuition as i t will give you the extra insight that you need! Mercury is retrograde and money tensions could flare up, be honest and talk through your concerns.
PISCES FEBRUARY 20 TO MARCH 20
The focus is on your work life; if you are trying to win over a col-league or client, invite them to lunch t o break the ice. M ercury
is retrograde in your house of finances, so wa tch your spending as un-expected outlays are likely. It would be a g ood idea to gi ve your cred-it cards a chance to recover before starting on your next big spending spree at the shops.
ARIES MARCH 21 TO APRIL 20
The focus is on loving your body and c aring for its strength and beauty. Learn to appreciate what is unique about you, and don’t
pick yourself apart. Mercury is retrograde in your partnership house so you need to forget about the small stuff and ignore mini-dramas. There are emotional pitfalls all around you.
TAURUS APRIL 21 TO MAY 21
The focus is on y our soc ial life and bein g a team pla yer, so in-stead of taking all the credit, give credit where credit is due. Your
ruling planet Mercury is retrograde and there is likely to be a lot of ten-sion, confusion and muddles involving family. Whatever decisions you make could turn out to be wrong, so avoid acting prematurely.
GEMINI MAY 22 TO JUNE 21
The focus is on your home and family. This is the ideal time to catch up with loved ones you haven’t seen for a while. You have
under-estimated how much you’ve been missing each other. Also be a great friend when your BFF texts you about her tough w eek, be sensi-tive. Mercury is retrograde and social plans may be suddenly cancelled.
CANCER JUNE 22 TO JULY 22
Communication is the name of the game and this is an excellent time to reconnect with old friends who make you laugh and plan
a fun g et tog ether. Also y our siblin gs, neighbours or colleagues w ill have interesting news to pass on. M ercury is retrograde in y our house of home and family, indicating that there is likely to be a tense time.
LEO JULY 23 TO AUGUST 23
With Mars in y our sign makin g this a highly ener getic month, it’s a fast and furious pace all the way, but at least you’ve got the
physical strength and tenac ity to cope w ith the pressure bot h at work and at home. If you can keep your head while all those around you are losing theirs, you won’t be doing too badly at all.
VIRGO AUGUST 24 TO SEPTEMBER 23
Romance beckons; if you have recently entered into a new part-nership be ready for e xclusivity talks b y D ecember. J anuary
and April w ill bring the c areer progress tha t you’ve worked hard for. If you’ve been contemplating a job change now is the time to g o for it. During O ctober, you need to be s mart w ith your mone y and stick to your budget.
LIBRA SEPTEMBER 24 TO OCTOBER 23
Mercury is retrograde in your sign from the 21st so be very care-ful of wha t you say and wri te as y ou’re likely to be misunder-
stood. You may think you speak with a reasoned, clear voice, but your emotional intensity will show through. You are also likely to take con-structive criticism the wrong way.
SCORPIO OCTOBER 24 TO NOVEMBER 22
Focus on important friendships and give praise where praise is due with your loved ones and close associates. Explain why you
think he or she rocks! With Mercury being retrograde you need to avoid pressuring companions to hang out as a group, instead revel in some one-on one time.
SAGITTARIUS NOVEMBER 23 TO DECEMBER 21
Focus on y our career and solv ing a tough w ork project and be ready to make a beeline to your boss with the solution. It is also
important that you look a t your money si tuation c arefully and mak e some sensible dec isions. M ercury is ret rograde so be v ery c areful of misplacing important pieces of paper.

So you’re not into gyms or standard “exercise” but you know you feel great when you’re your fit so what can you do? Well thanks to nerdfitness.com here are some ideas.
Martial arts: Be honest. You watched ‘The Matrix’, you heard Neo go “I kno w Kung Fu” and y ou wanted to be able to one day say the same thing. Whether it’s Kung Fu, Muay Thai, Tae Kwon Do, Karate or C apoeira, there’s a martial art out there that will make you feel like a badass.
Build a standin g desk: I t’s no surprise tha t there’s a stron g correlation between sitting all day and an early grave. Why not fix your posture, strengthen your legs, and spend the da y be-ing more productive with a standing desk?
Stop meeting for coffee: If somebody wants to meet up with you for coffee, suggest something active; throwing a baseball, tossing a frisbee, going for a hik e – anything that gets you up and moving. I say yes to pretty much anybody that invites me to play golf. Wink wink.
Clean: Ugh, nobody lik es to clean the house or apartmen t. I certainly don’t. So I make a game out of i t. I see ho w much I can accomplish w ith a sin gle song blasting at max v olume. Of course, after g etting through one son g, I figure “ well, I’ve already started, might as well keep going”.
Do handstands: This is a fun ac tivity that builds up serious arm and core strength and will leave you sweating bullets af-ter even a few minutes. Find a park, g o do handstands, c art-wheels, somersaults, and whatever else makes you feel young again. Go on, give it a try!
Parkour: The beginner’s guide to Parkour is one of the most popular on Nerd Fitness. I don’t care how old you are, there’s no reason y ou c an’t g et started w ith rollin g around in y our yard and vaulting over picnic tables and bike racks.
Playout: Is Parkour too serious for you? Try a playout! Spider-man was on to something – climbing walls, swinging from sky-scrapers, and poppin g flips around the bad guys. Y ou might not be able to swing between buildings, but you can definitely visit a playground in your area and get creative!

FITNESS
Some health foods are killing us. Most people are familiar w ith mac ro nutri-ents, these are the broad groups c alled protein, fats and carbohydrates.
None of these groups are bad. You use all of them to live.
I read a study the other day that said much of people’s knowledge on fitness topics comes from media and advertis-ing. Ads saying ‘low fat’ sound healthy to a lot of people, but w e are consum-ing more lo w fa t produc ts than ev er before. So why are we still getting fatter than ever?
Low cholesterol is another line, some people no w think this is a deadly poison. Cholesterol is essen tial in our bodies and helps make up and repair our cells. Our body can manufacture it as it is essential for brain health.
Look up Chris Masterjohn Phd on the net for an e xpert’s view on what cholesterol really does, or search for Anthony Colpo –he sho ws women with higher cholesterol li ve longer! Your brain is the most cholesterol rich organ in the body!
There are many studies that show low cholesterol negatively effects brain health.
Research by an Iowa State University scientist suggests that cholesterol-reducing drugs known as statins may lessen brain function.
Yeon-Kyun Shin, a biophysics professor in the department of biochemistry, biophysics and molec ular biology, says the re-sults of his study sho ws that drugs that inhibit the liver from making cholesterol may also keep the brain from making cho-lesterol, which is vital to efficient brain function.
At the end of the day, it’s your body, you always get the final say, so make an informed decision because it’s you that has to live with the decision.
Do your research and make sure it all adds up.

The new hosts of Channel T en’s upcomin g breakfast sho w ‘Wake Up’ aren’t too worried about their longstanding compe-tition on the other networks, instead the trio want to focus on making the best TV possible for their viewers.
Natasha Exelby, J ames Ma thison and Na tarsha B elling are currently on a whirlwind Australian adventure hopping from town to town in their big red ‘W ake Up’ bus to find out wha t real Australians want in a breakfast show.
“This new sho w is about findin g out wha t our audience wants and I think certain markets are forgotten,” Belling said.
“We’ve had some fan tastic feedback but one of the main messages people ha ve said is they wan t to see real people have real conversations and we think that will be easy for us to do because we are throwing away the autocue and scripts,” Exelby added.
Another exciting initiative the show is introducing to view-ers is localised news bulletins in each state, something which is common overseas but very unique in the Australian break-fast TV arena.
“Often y ou’ll wa tch the na tional news and there ’ll be a shooting out west but if you’re living in Queensland that’s not really relevant to you. Similarly if ther e’s a storm in Queens-land you don’t really c are in Penrith, so I think tha t will be a
major difference,” Exelby said.While B elling and Ex elby ha ve been lon gstayers on Ten’s various news bulletins over the years their male co-host in Ma thison has joined the team w ith a v ery
different television upbringing behind him.Mathison’s claim to fame was co -hosting ‘Aus-
tralian Idol’ from 2003 to 2008 before quitting the hit sho w to w ork on fello w Channel T en series ‘The Project’.
“I don’t know if I’ m fully prepa red to w ork in news but the beauty is I’ m w orking alon gside two excellent journalists who can fill in any gaps I might have,” Mathison said.
The show is set to debut next month.157ICDFIL

A rlington Oval was the venue for a foot-ball celebration last Sunday when the State L eague Di vision 2 Grand Final was won by Stanmore Hawks beating
Fairfield City Lions 1-0.On a warm Spring afternoon the Hawks played
a har d fough t match in f ront of around 1, 000 spectators who witnessed Nick Paradisis score in the 12th minute.
Hawks P resident T ony Pan teli said the pla y-ers did g o in to the ma tch feelin g the pressure of winning especially after taking out the minor premiership, effectively handing them the club championship for this year.
“Our e xpectations w ere high. L eading the competition all year we could never go down in the Grand Final, partic ularly after bein g minor premiers,” he said.
He said it was now up to Football NSW to pro-mote the club.

BASIL NAIMET@ICWJournalist
“The Grand Final match was crucial for us be-cause it would prove we should not have been relegated to State League Division 2. Taking out the club championship means i t’s up to F oot-ball NSW to promote us to Division 1,” he said.
Nothing seems to bother the club ho wever, not ev en the though t of bein g promoted to a higher league.
“We’re c apable of bein g competi tive in Di-vision 1, but if w e want to be in the top three teams for that division we need to bring two to three players into that squad,” Mr Pan teli told the Weekender.
From the outset, this team set their sigh ts on winning the competition.
Mission accomplished – in style.
