ON RAdIO

“Nobody cares what you look like when you’re all sweaty…” She was of course talking about performing hot yoga.

Loretta Ryan - Nundah local and 4BC pre-senter - has a favourite spot in the area, and it’s the Bikram Yoga studio.

However, working up a sweat isn’t the only thing that Loretta enjoys. She also loves her job - despite the fact that she has to start work at 3:30 in the morning.

Loretta co-hosts 4BC’s breakfast radio program alongside fellow presenter Ian Skippen.

But Loretta never has a problem getting out of bed, because she spends her days talking about things that matter to Queenslanders.’

“I love telling people’s stories and making people smile…that’s worth it. The aim of News Talk 4BC is to connect with people and to keep them informed,” Loretta said.

One of the privileges of Loretta’s job is hav-ing the opportunity to be involved in community events, and over the past few years she has participated in Nundah’s Christmas in the Vil-lage.

During her career, Loretta has interviewed stars like Gene Simmons and Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees, but it’s not only celebrities that make her job exciting and interesting. Loretta says that meeting regular people and hearing their inspiring stories is what is really important.If you have an upcoming event you would like Loretta and the 4BC team to be involved in, contact: [email protected]. You can also stay up-to-date by following them on Facebook (newstalk4bc) and twitter @newstalk4bc.

Paul and Christine are passionate about sourcing unique salvage items and statement pieces

Salvage Emporium holds architectural & decorator delightsWHAT HAPPENS when dreams and passion unite? For baby-boomers Paul and Christine Norris, this happy union led to the creation of their business - Grand Ideas Salvage Emporium.

The idea was born after Paul and Christine had retired, and their business showcases ‘one of a kind’ pieces that have been recycled or repurposed.

Drawing on their experience in the building and art fields, Paul and Christine expertly source items with a point of difference.

Visitors to Grand Ideas will find an eclectic array of repurposed items, industrial antiques, lead-lighting, retro and vintage homewares and toys, recycled building materials, garden installa-tions and wall art.

Their imaginative creations transform all man-ner of things - and it seems there’s nothing they can’t repurpose.

Their creativity has brought new life to things like an outboard fuel tank, which they turned into a retro coffee table.

If you are looking for a special piece for the home or garden, something that is uniquely different, you will find it at Grand Ideas Salvage Emporium.

Undoubtedly, there will be something to give your project that added flair.

Be sure to visit regularly as stock changes rapidly and there will always be something new and different to admire.

Breakfast = Winning!RECENT STUDIES have thrown the ‘no breakfast’ theories out the window and promote the importance of a healthy breakfast for your health and weight-loss goals. It sounds simple, but you would be surprised how many people skip breakfast thinking it will be beneficial for them.

In general, those who eat breakfast eat fewer calories throughout the day. If you skip breakfast, your metabolic rate stays low, along with your blood sugar levels. This makes you feel tired, low in energy and prone to snacking... so kick-start your day with a healthy breakfast!

Try this Berrylicious Breakfast Recipe:

Raspberry-banana smoothieCombine ½ banana, ½ cup frozen raspberries, ½ cup fat-free Greek yogurt and 8 ounces of skim milk in a blender. Serve with 1 slice of whole wheat toast. Anytime Fitness - Toombul Shopping Centre – Call 3630 4088, email [email protected]

The real estate market varies from month to month, year to year, and the conditions can change quite rapidly at times. The best time to sell will normally be when you are ready and the property has been prepared well to be sold – this is not always going to be in Spring.

Here are two graphs for local suburbs outlining the peak selling periods averaged over a three-year period. As you can see - the ‘Spring Sell’ Myth does not add up!

One of the best indicators of the best time to sell is to look at current sales activity. How many days is it taking prop-erty around yours to sell? Are they selling overnight or quite quickly? If this is the case, then the time may be right as - long as you are ready.

If property in your suburb is displaying an abundance of sold boards, with few remaining ‘for sale’, check with your preferred agent to see if now is a good time to sell.

No matter how the market is travelling, the key to your selling success is often the strategy you use and your agent’s understanding of how to help you maximise your result. Even in a flat market, exceptional results can be achieved if you get the preparation, presentation and plan right from the start. If sellers or agents don’t present the property to the market-place well, the result could be lacklustre.It is important to remember the ‘5 P’s’: Proper preparation prevents poor per-formance. In other words the time of year should not be your focus. If you are ready to sell, chances are the time is right.

WHAT’S HAPPENING AT THE NUNDAH NEIGHBOURHOOD CENTRE

Nundah Festival 2013Centre

Christmas PartyNNC FINISHED 2013 on a high note, holding a Christmas Party for all of the Centre’s clients and supporters. There was a huge turnout with more than 150 people attending and enjoy-ing the festivities.

We would like to thank the Lord Mayor’s Charitable Trust who provided a grant that covered costs for catering and children’s entertainment. The trust also provided presents for all the children who attended the party.

Also a big thank-you to our volunteers and staff for all their hard work, and local businesses for their support.

Overall, everyone had a great day and we hope to see you all next year!

• Myths and facts relating to violence

• Confidence/personal empowerment

• Body language and communication

• Fear management and dealing positively with confrontation

• Assertiveness and awareness training

• Self-image and self-esteem

Thank-youA big thank-you to the Yoga Ladies from Energex who donated $400 towards

purchasing Christmas gifts for women escaping domestic violence. It meant a lot to

have done this without your generous donation.

The Nundah Community Legal Service [NCLS]SOCIAL INCLUSION IS CENTRAL TO AUSTRALIAN SOCIETY: the idea of the ‘fair go’ and justice for all. Legal problems rarely exist in isolation. Broad economic and political uncertainties, as well as financial, social and cultural issues have an im-pact, and may lead to job losses, struggles paying day-to-day expenses and caring for loved ones, fractured relationships and domestic violence.

It is easy for people to feel lost in the daunting legal process, a maze of jargon, forms and forbidding personnel in black robes. Lawyers can help but they are ex-pensive, and government-provided legal assistance has many competing demands on its resources.

At the NCLS, we strive to help people with problems to break the cycle early.We help to reduce the ripple effect of hardship and despair by providing all members of the community access to justice through free, local, accessible, quality egal service.

We do this through our long established weekly Wednesday drop-in advice service staffed by dedicated volunteer lawyers and students together with an employed senior solicitor who sees clients by appointment. Our service is not means-tested and takes a holistic collaborative approach.

The NCLS looks forward to as-sisting our community in Brisbane’s North during 2014.
