TERRY KENYON is trying to force bankruptcy on council colleagues Mike Sabatino and Mike Anderton.

The former mayor—represented by Harold Paiker—says the pair owe him $84,000 from the settlement of a defamation case, so he’s taken them to the federal court to have them declared bankrupt.

PERTH city council has been labelled “unromantic” after i ts painters cut padlocks symbolising unbreakable love from the Claisebrook Cove bridge .

Lord mayor Lisa Scafff idi promises the city will replace the locks.

Heartbroken Phil Harrison told the Voice, “I placed a professionally engraved padlock there for my wife some three years ago,” alongside locks from about a dozen other devoted couples. “It was a great reminder for us whenever we crossed the bridge and our grandkids used to love fi nding it along the railings.”

The bridge is being painted and the padlocks have been cut off .

“What a petty, unromantic thing for the City of Perth to do,” Mr Harrison said. “It would have been an easy matter for the dozen or so locks on the bridge to be painted around.”

Ms Sca di said via email that “upon hearing of their removal I was so very disappointed and I wish to off er those people who will realise their love lock is gone to arrange a replacement via the City”.

She’d said the locks’ whereabouts was unknown, but they likely couldn’t be reused since they’d been sheared in two. She says there are also locks on the Trafalgar Road Bridge and the Belltower wall and she’s enjoying the emerging tradition.

While the notion of lovelocks took off like wildfi re in the early 2000s across Italy and France—with some municipal authorities regarding it as vandalism—its origins are thought to lie in pre-WWII Serbia, with young women writing their names and that of their soldier beaux on padlocks and a xing them to what is now known as Most Ljubavi (the Bridge of Love).

“While only a few locks were there I think it is lovely to see people embracing our infrastructure in this way,” Ms Scaffidi says. “It must mean a few moonlight walks are happening on this bridge and hopefully some marriage proposals.”

FOUR Bayswater councillors voted not to fast-track a $10,000 donation to the Philippines disaster fund, with two arguing the timing was unimportant.

In order to deal with the motion immediately the issue had to be deemed “urgent business”: Councillors Chris Cornish, Michelle Sutherland, Mike Sabatino and Mike Anderton believed it wasn’t.

“I’m not against the intent,” Cr Cornish said. “But there is no urgency, the Philippines will need aid and money for years going forward.”

He argued that technically, under local government guidelines, the item couldn’t be

funds could be delayed.Stunned, Cr Terry Kenyon said

there was around 4500 Filipinos in Bayswater requesting help for relatives.

“People are starving, there is no food or water, this is pretty urgent,” he said.

“This council has been one of the the leaders in multiculturalism and Bayswater has become a bit of a centre for the Filipino community in Perth.

“We need to get humanitarian aid out there.”

After the item was approved as urgent business, all councillors voted to donate $10,000 to the Red Cross.

The bankruptcy case will be heard in the federal court in February.

The question of whether Cr Kenyon breached the settlement and voided the bill is being heard concurrently in WA’s district court.

While none of the three councillors were in court for the directions hearing this week, the new council chamber seating plan has Crs Sabatino and Kenyon sitting next to each

THE run-down Robertson Park AIDS memorial has been fi xed following extensive lobbying by the Sisters of the Order of Perpetual Indulgence.

The order of queer nuns contacted the Voice in 2012 complaining the memorial had fallen into disrepair, the lights weren’t working, and it was unclear what the memorial was actually for.

It was also being used as a skateboarding park by blasphemous local kids.

Mother Gretta Amyletta of the order says after long

STIRLING residents are set to be hit with more paid parking spots at higher prices.

The council has voted to expand the amount of paid parking at “high demand locations” across the city, including Herdsman Business Park within Walters Drive, Hasler and Parkland Roads, and around Glendalough rail station.

Council staff stated “it is likely that paid parking will expand into other similar locations”.

The updating of 2008 parking laws will also see many $60

• Mother Gretta Amyletta and sister Mary Jane Singleton are blessed happy the Robertson Park AIDS Memorial has been fi xed. Photo by Jeremy Dixon

lobbying and a few articles in the Voice, Vincent council responded.

Some $15,000 was spent on upgrades, including fi xing up the pond, installing new lights, and a sign so people can actually tell it’s an AIDS memorial.

At the sisters’ request a rock garden was installed so visitors can engrave a stone with the names of loved ones who’ve died from the disease.

“The Perth sisters are absolutely delighted,” Mother Amyletta says.

“The Perth sisters have received [numerous] comments from people saying how proud they felt about the memorial again now the repairs have been completed.”

With two community fi gures dying due to HIV/AIDS in the past two weeks, Mother Amyletta says the memorial is still very relevant and important to the community.

Vincent mayor John Carey says “I think it’s a beautiful refl ective area that’s now fi tting for the memory of victims of AIDS”.

The sisters had hoped artist Rodney Glick would agree to putting a red ribbon on the monument but he’d said that wouldn’t work with the piece, so they compromised and instead installed a sign with the ribbon and an explanation of the work.

They’re still hoping Mr Glick will change his mind.

Prayers pay off

parking penalties increase to $80, including failure to pay at a metered bay and parking when the meter has expired.

Parking in a clearway will nearly double, from $80 to $150 and the council has closed a loophole that allowed residents to park on verges opposite their property.

The council has budgeted $5.8 million to increase paid parking at the Herdsman and Glendalough areas.

Mayor Giovanni Italiano denied the move was a revenue raiser, insisting it was designed to encourage public transport and stop clogged streets.

“The benefi t to ratepayers

is that the expansion and maintenance of parking facilities will be funded from the proceeds of paid parking, rather than by ratepayers,” he says.

“This is important as surveys of the city’s parking facilities have indicated that 70 per cent of users are not Stirling ratepayers.”

City manager Laurie Crouch says extra paid parking spaces will also ease driver frustration.

“Longer trip times and tra c congestion, looking for a bay, add to drivers’ frustrations.”

The new laws will be go out for community consultation and come back to council for a fi nal review.

A HIGH-RISE apartment tower planned for Beaufort Street has attracted the ire of the nearby Court Hotel.

Court owner Bree Maddox wrote to the Perth development assessment panel, concerned complaints from new residents about noise and behaviour could spell doom for her iconic gay bar.

The Court has a closing time at 2am, which has never been the subject of a complaint, but the former Penthouse pet is concerned newcomers may tut and fuss.

“Bringing residents into the area creates the potential for objectors which, if the result is we are unable to renew these permits, would be fi nancially devastating for our business,” Ms Maddox wrote.

Owned by Northbridge Centre Custodian Services, the trio of towers will feature two commercial buildings and a 27-storey block with 144 units and 88 serviced apartments.

The application was due to go in front of the DAP Thursday, where Perth councillors James Limnios and Rob Butler were to determine its fate along with unelected members Paul

AN attempt by the Abbott and Barnett governments to shift costs onto local councils has failed and could result in an exploding population of corellas and rainbow lorikeets throughout Perth.

Farmer consider the birds serious pests because of their impact on grain and fodder. They also damage phone and light towers, and aggressively compete (very successfully) with native birds for food and nesting sites.

Bayswater city council was gobsmacked when told funding for a control program had been axed and that for it to continue, the council would have to cough up $25,000 over fi ve years.

“Under the current fi scal restraints issued to state

Kotsoglo, Brian Curtis and Terry Tyzack.

Planning staff ers advised that to minimise complaints, all new residents should be warned about “noise and other adverse

impacts” so they know what they’re getting into.

They also recommended the buildings be constructed to block the bulk of the noise from the 100-year-old pub.

Buyers to be warned:

“There is a risk that the city may see more requests

Pests to explodefor funding of programs that were traditionally run at a state level, however, fall into what is increasingly termed ‘shared governmental responsibility’.”

Bayswater councillors voted to approve the control program, on the proviso the government funded it.

THE community bus plan is dead, with Vincent council balking at the cost of servicing the under-served east-west route.

The route had been served by the 401 bus until the WA public transport authority removed it in February due to lack of use. PTA media man David Hynes had told the

Voice “we have an obligation to not waste taxpayer dollars on heavily-subsidised services that are grossly underutilised”.

Vincent council commissioned research into a community bus feasibility study, but has now stepped back from the plan conceding it’s too expensive. It had set aside $100,000 but the fi nal cost was looking much higher.

We loved LyndonI AM writing in response to a comment attributed to Lisa Sca di in the article on Lyndon Rogers (Voice, November 16, 2013).

In the article she says “Lyndon is obviously smarting from a loss at the recent elections”. She then goes on to say, “possibly if he had been more engaged and interested [he would] have been re-elected by ratepayers who would have appreciated and enjoyed and loved what he represented and stood for”.

Well, Lisa, you obviously are totally unaware of the tireless eff ort Lyndon put in during his short term to assist and represent the ratepayers of East Perth, which is where we live.

Nothing was ever too small or difficult for him to address or investigate on one’s behalf. During his term of o ce he always attended the monthly meetings of the East Perth Community Safety Group. He was the only elected councillor who attended during that period.

To say he was not “engaged or interested” just shows how little you know about him. I think Lyndon’s failing (if he had one) was he was never politically aligned to a particular clique, and that gave him less clout in the eyes of certain groups.

The more I see of local government the less I like it. I suggest the viewing of the fantastic TV series Grass Roots should be compulsory viewing for all councillors!

City freeloadsWHEN the City of Perth was split (into Perth, Vincent, Cambridge and Victoria Park) in 1993/4, it was largely in response to bleating from central city property owners they were “subsidising” the residential suburbs. Now Lisa Sca di, having learnt nothing in the intervening two decades, is spouting a similar line about how rates would change if Perth has to take in all of Vincent.

As the City of Perth itself points

It’s the dog’s bollocksTHE retention of part of Mt Lawley within the City of Stirling is a terrible decision.

This is probably a once in a generation opportunity to make a real neighbourhood with consistent heritage out of the riverside suburbs north-east of the CBD, and it is being squandered because Mt Lawley supposedly has more in common with Gwelup and Scarborough than with Maylands and Bayswater.

On any rational inspection of the map, Alexander Drive is the natural boundary between Bayswater and Stirling—the Stirling panhandle sticks out like dog’s bollocks and cannot possibly make for e cient integrated service delivery.

Choral livesJOB well done Steve Grant in covering the popular revival of choral and early music (Voice, November 16, 2013).

This returned me to grammar school days and several years of Sunday morning matins in Ripon Cathedral, where we read comic books hidden between our knees while the clergy preached, the organ thundered and the choir soared.

Some of the majesty sank in. The Gregorian chant and 17th century composer Matthew Locke, for examples; and now the Tallis Singers stir memories and bring on rapture.

Tune into the ABC Radio’s Classic FM for such items. Experience choral bliss.

Ron Willis

out on its website, “the residential rate is set at a relatively low level when compared to other metropolitan authorities to support the City’s aim of encouraging people to reside in the City”, so property and business owners in the City are subsidising residential property right now. It would be interesting to know what the City of Perth residential rate would be if not set artifi cially low in this way.

But the fact the City of Perth feels it needs to subsidise residential use in the City is illuminating in itself. Vincent doesn’t provide subsidies and still people fl ock here to live. Ask any real estate agent in the area.

The fact is the inner-city areas surrounding the central business district bear the costs (not just fi nancial, but social and environmental as well) of providing the access those same City property and business owners see as essential to their commercial well-being. Heavy tra c on Beaufort and Fitzgerald Streets detracts severely from the amenity of those centres. Heavy tra c on East Parade, Charles Street and Loftus Street cuts residents off from community amenities, businesses and public transport. The Mitchell Freeway cuts Leederville town centre businesses off from half its natural customer catchment.

The City of Perth, on the other hand, benefi ts twice from all this: By businesses getting the customers and employees they need and by the City of Perth getting millions of dollars in parking revenues every year. Surely it is not too much to ask for the City to spend some of those carparking dollars to off set the impacts of those same cars on the residents of Vincent.

As I pointed out a number of times when I was on Vincent council, if Vincent was able to put a 50-cent toll on each car passing through the area to or from the city, we would be able to do away with property rates in Vincent completely. This is not fanciful—other places in the world (Singapore, London, Stockholm, Durham (at a different scale)) have these sorts of access charges—perhaps it is time for Perth to seriously consider it too.

It could be argued the state government’s Perth Parking Levy acts as a de facto charge of this sort, but it misses all those who drive through, rather than to, the City and thus contribute nothing but congestion

DEVELOPERS are circling like sharks to snap up newly sub-dividable blocks in Vincent.

Due to an unforeseen quirk in new WA government rules, blocks as small as 240sqm can now be divided into tiny lots in parts of Vincent’s historic residential suburbs. Some 578 newly eligible lots exist across the city, and the council’s worried old houses will be bowled over for tomahawk blocks (tiny battle-axes).

THE arr ival of internet b e h e m o t h A m a z o n ’ s Australian online store has l o c a l b o o k s h o p o w n e r s screaming for a level playing fi eld on GST.

Unlike books bought in local shops, items bought on Amazon’s Aussie portal are not subject to GST nor other importation restrictions that aff ect prices and delivery times.

In the US, Amazon sells one of every two books sold online, and is the number one online bookseller in most countries it operates in. Its dominance of the ebook market is even higher, accounting for between 70 and 80 per cent of all US sales.

Elizabeth’s Bookshop co-owner Harry Schmitz says customers may get a short-term buzz from lower prices but says there will be real long-term impacts on the Australian economy

“How many local Australian jobs will be generated by the launch of Amazon’s Australian website and how much money will the government miss out in non-levied GST,” he asks.

“This website is another impediment to people visiting local bricks and mortar shops.

“I believe it’s another nail in the coffin for high street book sellers in Australia.”

H e w a n t s t h e A b b o t t government to follow France’s lead: In October, French MPs passed a law to prevent Amazon from combining delivery with a fi ve per cent discount on its books.

Since 1981 French law has fi xed book prices so readers pay the same whether they buy online, from a high street chain, or from a small bookseller. Extensive discounting is banned.

Last year, Borders shut its doors in Australia and Angus & Robertson scaled back to a handful of outlets.

Dymocks managing director Steve Cox is also calling for the same GST rules to apply to both online and real world sellers.

• Elizabeth’s Bookshop founder and co-owner Elizabeth Schmitz. Photo by Stephen Pollock

“Australian stores can thrive and compete with the best of international competitors, but the playing fi eld needs to be even for both sides,” he says.

“GST is levied on books in this country, but not collected on overseas purchases—this needs to change.

“Australian retailers are restricted by parallel importation restrictions that negatively impact on our ability to get books to

customers in the fastest time and at the best possible price, and this needs to change also.”

Amazon’s Australian website currently only sells ebooks for its proprietary Kindle reader. Its European and US sites sell physical books for home delivery, as well as a plethora of goods, including DVDs, electronic equipment and CDs.

New chapter for GST?

The council’s trying to close the loophole before a goldrush of demolitions gets underway but Cr Josh Topelberg this week revealed “developers are looking in the City of Vincent to fi nd a block aff ected by this”. He told colleagues he’d received a phone call from someone asking “is it true that there are opportunities now that you’re going to close the doors on?”. He’d declined to answer, suggesting the person do their own research.

“ T h r o u g h t h e j o y s o f bureaucracy that window will be

open for a while,” he added.The council put its wheels

in motion last night, voting to formally go ahead with former Cr Dudley Maier’s plan to “rezone” areas around Hyde Park and Cleaver Precinct to stop already tiny blocks being subdivided. While technically classed as a rezoning, they characterised it as restoring the status quo from before the WA government snafu.

It’ll now be sent off to the WA government for a red tape adventure that could take 18 months.

On the night of Thursday 28 November 2013, the trafficlight controlled pedestrian crossings at the Milligan/HayStreet intersection will be changed from a pedestrianexclusive crosswalk to parallel walk crossings.

This means pedestrians will be able to cross the roadparallel with the traffic flow, with turning vehicles givingway to pedestrian traffic.

Pedestrians will be given a five second head start beforetraffic turning are given a green signal. Pedestriansmust cross the intersection according to the pedestriancrossing symbols. Remember, by law turning vehiclesmust give way to pedestrians.

There will be personnel at both sites to assist and directpedestrians crossing the road for the next seven daysafter the conversion.

Removing the exclusive-partial pedestrian crossingphase at these intersections will allow for more efficienttraffic flow for both traffic and pedestrians, ultimatelyreducing congestion in the city.

The modifications will affect both pedestrians andmotorists using the intersection. It is important to sharethe road and approach these intersection in an alert,safe and courteous manner.

On Saturday 30 November at 1pm the pedestriancrossings at the Milligan/Murray Street intersection willalso be modified to become parallel walk crossings.

THE plan has “been through the ringer” but the old Stockade Building on Wellington Street will be saved.

Most of the 1910 building will be retained in the new six-storey design by Palassis Architects.

It was approved by Perth city council Tuesday night, and it’s third time lucky for the $4.5 million project.

The fi rst application lodged in 2011 proposed knocking down most of the old building and just keeping the facade.

PCC bo ns on the design advisory committee wanted to keep more and

THE birds are back. Crows and ibis fl ocking to overfl owing bins, at the rear of Nando’s in Mt Lawley, are still making life a misery for nearby residents on Clarence and Beaufort Streets.

In April, the Voice reported that birds scavenging at the bins were defecating on nearby houses, dropping chicken bones in gutters and keeping neighbours awake by squawking at the crack of dawn.

The council pledged it would take action to fi x the problem, but Clarence Street resident Patrick Patterson says things are worse than ever.

“There’s now even more birds at the bins than before,” he says. “I went down there at 6am this morning and there were 10 ibis and God knows how many crows.

“The noise is horrendous and they leave a mess everywhere.”

Vincent council CEO John Giorgi says the council had asked Nando’s to build an enclosed bin store area.

“Nando’s is on track with the installation of the bin store area, the ground work has been completed, including provision of taps, drainage and a cement fl ooring.

“The next step is to construct the walls. They have been also asked to ensure all rubbish is bagged and to keep the lid down—I suspect this amount of rubbish in these photos is a result of the Beaufort Street Festival.

“The bins are checked as part of routine inspections and have been found to be satisfactory at that time.”

the designer went back to the drawing board, submitting another plan early this year.

Finally, after its third attempt through DAC in September, everyone’s happy with the new heritage-friendly and energy-e cient design.

Also at PCC this week, the demolition of nearby FESA house was approved at the urging of the Barnett government, so a hotel could be built (see “Brutal fate for FESA building” Perth Voice, November 16, 2013).

The other big hotel project down at Barrack Square also received the thumbs up (“Hotel nod for river,” Perth Voice, November 16, 2013), though the fi nal call rests with the WA government.

Taoist ShrineMaps path for transformation

“Taoism is a path to ultimate transformation, leading us to harmony within ourselves, with those around us, and with the entire world.”

Chanting at the shrine

A new Taoist shrine that symbolizes the process of spiritual development for better health will be the focus of a celebration on Saturday 23 November.

Taoism is a rich tradition of teachings dating back up to fi ve thousand years. Along with Buddhism and Confucianism, it is traditionally recognized as one of the Three Religions of China, all of which are observed by the Fung Loy Kok Institute of Taoism.

Taoism is a path to ultimate transformation, leading us to harmony within ourselves, with those around us, and with the entire world. What we believe or where we come from is not important. Rather, what we do and who we are is the focus of Taoism. For this reason, although Taoism is one of the great religions of the world, people from any religious tradition or those without religious belief are welcome and can fully participate in a community of Taoist cultivation.

Taoist training is intended to return both body and mind to our original nature. According to Taoist teachings body and mind cannot be separated. Each step in the training is intended to help the mind return to stillness, clarity and wisdom, and the body to a balanced, relaxed and healthy state.

Taoism teaches that to return to our original nature is to help others. Taoism teaches that service to others allows us to relieve our minds of agitation caused by attachment to gain and loss and to our own narrow perspectives. Over time, as our minds become clearer and our bodies become healthier, we become ever more able to practise compassion

towards others and be helpful to those in the world around us. In the end, the meaning of life is to help others.

The new shrine is located at the headquarters of the Taoist Tai Chi Society of Australia, at 52 Railway Parade, Bayswater.

Participants will enjoy a special Taoist vegetarian lunch as part of the event.

The Taoist Tai Chi Society of Australia Inc (TTCSA) began in Fremantle in 1980, and is part of the International Taoist Tai Chi Society founded by Master Moy Lin-shin (1931 – 1998) in Canada in 1970.

The mission of this charitable organization is to cultivate physical, mental and spiritual health in the community by making the Taoist Tai Chi™ internal arts of health, such as tai chi, chanting and meditation, available to all. Membership of the Society is open to people of all faiths.

Master Moy Lin-shin’s teachings were developed as a way to recover the linkage between tai chi and Taoist ‘dual cultivation’ training of body, mind and spirit. This synthesis off ers a unique method for the physical, spiritual, ethical and social training of the whole person.

The Society off ers regular classes for its members, and also off ers special ‘health recovery’ classes for people with particular health or mobility problems that may prohibit them from participating in a regular class.

CLASSIC architecture is ailing and architects have forgotten the skills of

old, says local urban designer Malcolm Mackay.

“The current generation of architects have lost their way, they’ve lost their training: They just put stuff together and hope it looks okay,” the Mt Hawthorn local says.

“Sometimes it does, and more than often it doesn’t.”

He’s seeking to revive what he regards as a near-dead art form with his exhibition of hand-drawn designs inspired by classic architecture the world over.

“It all started with an epiphany that I had in Adelaide a couple of years ago: Adelaide has a fantastic collection of old buildings because it hasn’t had as much development as Perth.

“I thought ‘not only is this beautiful, but there’s not many people around who can do this any more.

“Up until the early 1900s,

proportion, elegance and doing things beautifully was a major preoccupation.

“In the olden days the buildings had a lot more richness to them, the ornamentation and the details made them great to look at.”

Mackay, who sees his fair share of designs by sitting on development assessment panels that oversee approval of big projects in Perth, says it’s a myth the old-style ornamentations are prohibitively expensive.

“They only account for 12 to 15 per cent of the building cost.”

As to why architects have lost their way: “Sometimes it’s developer pressure to make it as cheap as possible, but I think it’s actually a cultural thing.

ARTSDAVID BELL

“Architects moved into a modernist phase in the ‘20s or ‘30s and they just got stuck there and never came back”. It’s a phase he characterises as, “very stripped down, steel, glass, concrete, no ornamentation, rectangles and boxes”.

Mackay says the community feels, “an element of frustration and disappointment with what architects do” but he thinks they should speak up about what they want to see in new developments.

“I’d love to see architects and the community talking to each other again, and for architects to discover what it is that turns the community on and

get back into that space again. “That’s the message I’m trying to send out: Not

all is lost, not all architects are into boring buildings, we can do it diff erently.

‘There’s a lot of apathy, people get ground down. You may only be one voice, but if everybody decides to speak out you would get a groundswell of opinion.”

Malcolm Mackay’s The Forgotten Art of Architecture is at Linton & Kay Galleries, level 1/137 St Georges Terrace from November 24 to December 12.

RED SHIELD APPEAL

ARIES (Mar 21 – Apr 20)The omens for social and professional advancement are good. If you can allow

movement with friends, then the dance is deep and satisfying. On the work front, it will be an acceptance of the fact of limitations, that gives you a clear path to higher things. Freedom has many forms.

TAURUS (Apr 21 – May 20)The tough and the sensitive invariably have a tricky time with each other. When a rock

hits a rose, it doesn’t even notice it has done so. This is problematic for both. Your job is to fi nd a balance between the two. Though you are a pragmatist, you have an aesthetic nature.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 21)The underbelly of relationships is demanding attention. What is going

on around power exactly? And what is going on around secrecy? This is a good moment for noticing these things. It doesn’t have to be a loss of innocence. It can be a door to greater wonder. Ask the right questions.

CANCER (June 22 – Jul 22)Jupiter and Saturn are fl owing with each other. Jupiter brings expansion. Saturn

brings restriction. Together, on a good day, they form an in and out breath. Breathe and fl ow. Let life open and close. Let it move through the opposites. Accept both and you’ll fi nd release.

LEO (Jul 23 – Aug 22)The more you think you have adjusted to your natural position on the throne,

the more gremlins there are to deal with. These gremlins are evidence of matters that haven’t been attended to on the way up. Attend to them now, lest you meet them on the way down. Look under the rug.

VIRGO (Aug 23 – Sept 22)You have the energy – and now you have a sense of direction that makes your heart

happy. This is a powerful combination. In the pursuit of your vision, there is no need to sacrifi ce either bravado, or sensitivity. When they come together, the feeling is transcendent. Go for it.

LIBRA (Sept 23 – Oct 23)Life is shaping you up and getting ready to ship you out. It is adding bones to

the amorphous mass of indecisiveness that regularly becomes your undoing. Tighten up loose bolts. Add discipline where there is none. Don’t impose it. Find what needs it – and give it as a gift.

SCORPIO (Oct 24 – Nov 21)The Sun has shifted into Sagittarius. It comes as a relief to be out of the

spotlight. Transparency undermines your power base. Saturn is delivering a solid seven days worth of home truths. One of them is that the kind of power that comes from keeping things hidden, is brittle and false.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov 22 – Dec 21)The Sun has arrived, bringing you the fi re and light that you have been crying out

for. This is ignition time. It is a moment primed to fan the fl ames of your quest in whole new ways. Strong, diffi cult lessons about letting in others perspectives and feelings, have been taken on board.

CAPRICORN (Dec 22 – Jan 19)Venus is with you. She is lighting up the bits of you that tend to forget about

delight. It’s so easy to get caught up in the grind and forget that life is more than that – much more than that. Simple pleasures can lead to deeper pleasures. Delight needs to be exercised too. Give it space.

AQUARIUS (Jan 20 – Feb 18)The Sagittarian Sun lights a spark in you. It speaks of openness, expansion and

adventures to be partaken outside the box. That’s music to your ears. Deeper issues and deeper journeys of healing are by no means over yet - but they are at last showing signs of having run their course.

PISCES (Feb 19 – Mar 20)There are a lot of good things going for you in the starry sky. Mercury is

availing you of insight. The North Node of the Moon is giving you the feeling that you are on the right track. As illusions break and healing surfaces, so optimism rises. Mortality is a mighty adventure to be on.

The Power Assisted Electric Bicycle is still regarded as a bit of a novelty item in Australia, but that’s certainly not the case overseas.

If you frequent the ever expanding bike path networks across the major cities it’s hard not to notice those commuters that are making the task look just a bit too easy.

With the recent changes in legislation regarding the limitations of Power Assisted Electric Bicycles, we’re starting to see a more refi ned approach to construction of these bikes.

There are a few companies working to bring the new Power Assisted Electric Bicycles design and development to Australia, the main one being West Australia’s ZAP Bikes. They have been operating for almost 3 years and recently

moved to their new premises at 8 Port Kembla Drive in Bibra Lake to handle the increase in demand. We spoke to them and they gave us an insight into their future development plans for the Australian market.

“ZAP Bikes has been in business for 3 years now and we’ve seen a huge uptake of our ZAP Bikes in that time. Our Online Shop is up and running, helping us get our bikes to every part of Australia now. Along with our website expect to see ZAP Bikes Dealerships in the major cities in the future.”

A VOICE PROMOTIONAL FEATUREFocus on Beaufort Street

Beaufort Street is the perfect place for our business. We live local and we work local, the team at Beaufort Realty can be seen any day of the week eating, shopping or socialising along this wonderful strip.

We are proud to be associated with the Beaufort Street Festival, a true celebration put on by the community for the community. With 120,000 people attending last weekend, many visiting Beaufort Street for the fi rst time, we feel our little street is certainly on the destination map.

This will benefi t the shops and cafes which in turn will benefi t the whole community.

If there is anything you want to know about Beaufort Street or local real estate buying, selling or renting call into 580 Beaufort Street and meet your local team.

Sharing dishes is the best way to eat Greek and no one does Mezze Platters better than Estia in Inglewood.

Estia has launched a new menu with lunch specials every day, including Chicken yiros, Pulled pork pitas and Squid salad. They now also serve breakfast on Saturdays and Sundays that includes a Greek feast or you can choose from their popular dishes like the Mousaka, Sheftalia or Spanakopita or the famous Mezze platter. For authentic, modern Greek food where everyone is welcome you can’t go past Estia.

Parking is free, easy and convenient. Book your table now for Christmas.

Sharing is caring

If there is one thing the Singh brothers know how to deliver, it is exceptional seafood. For 10 years their popular Red Cray restaurant in Belmont has been a winner or a fi nalist of multiple awards.

In April this year the boys expanded their seafood empire, bringing their award winning talents back home to Mt Lawley in the form of Red Cray on Beaufort Seafood Bar Grill.

Here you can enjoy the best of Beaufort including Tasmanian Salmon cooked to perfection, Seafood Platters with Morton Bay Bugs and succulent Seared Scallops, to name a few. On Tuesdays and Wednesdays come down for the special $15 Fisherman’s Night Menu and on Thursdays let the $30 Farmer’s Night Special; a 300g MSA Sirloin Steak served with chips, salad and a side of chef’s special get your tastebuds in a frenzy.

2013 Gold Plate Award winning restaurant for seafood dining

Not hungry? Come down for a drink or cocktail with friends, Red Cray is now fully licensed, BYO wine only ($6 per bottle), to serve liquor without a meal.
