Police probe the cold case death of Charles Faul
Unsolved mystery: $100,000 reward to find perpetrator of shooting 27 years ago
T he NS W H omicide S quad in conjunction w ith the Minister for Police and Emer gency S er-vices Michael Gallacher ha ve
announced a $100,000 reward for infor-mation relating to the shootin g murder of Charles Faul in Redfern.
EDITOR'S DESK
We've learned nothing from Anna Wood's tragic 1995 drug death
I n 1995, there was perhaps no bigg er news story than the dea th of S ydney school girl Anna Wood.
The 15-year-old collapsed into a coma after taking an ecstasy tablet at a dance rave and later died. Like it or not, the stor y gained ev en more prominence because Anna Wood was a normal, middle class ev eryday girl living on S ydney’s north shore.
In other w ords, she didn ’t fit the dr ug stereo-type we’d all become used to.
Not surprisin gly, the dea th of Anna W ood sparked huge community concern about the use of drugs such as ecstasy, and it was the first time that paren ts probably legi timately questioned their otherwise good natured kids about the ta-boo subject of ‘recreational’ drugs.
The media a ttention a t the time spark ed nu-merous responses, includin g a c all f rom NS W Premier B ob C arr to shut do wn the club Anna Wood had attended that night. The Coroner sug-gested better drug education information.
As someone who was around Anna Wood’s age at the time, I remember clearly the sur ge in talk about drugs and their dan gers through the me-dia, school and my general social circle.
Fast forward 13 years, and what have we really learned about the issue?
Last w eekend a t the D efqon.1 music festi val in grea ter w estern S ydney, 23- year-old J ames
Munro died after reportedly taking three ecstasy tablets. Many others a t the ev ent suffered dr ug overdoses, and there was 84 people arrested for drug-related offences.
Music festi vals lik e this one really need to be looked at in terms of the very serious drugs issue that often dominates them.
I think there is a wider issue that needs to be ad-dressed and that is the education that surrounds illegal drug use.
I’m not quite sure that the real long-term mes-sage from young Anna Wood’s death in 1995 has ever really been deli vered in the wa y i t should have been.
It seems that we as a society moved on not only from the death of a teenage girl with her entire life still in front of her, but from the wider drugs issue entirely.
The death of J ames Munro is dismissed b y so many as just another ‘druggo’ who finally met his match, particularly on social media.
And I understand the argument that it is diffi-cult to have sympathy for somebody who know-ingly takes drugs.
But what we were supposed to learn from Anna Wood’s death in 1995 was that it could happen to your son or your daughter at any time – no mat-ter how responsible you think they are.
Instead I think we’ve put drug deaths into a cat-egory that none of us want to think or care about.
It could happen to your son or daughter
TROY DODDS@troydodds
Mr Faul, aged 40, was found slumped in the driver’s seat of his red Ford Falcon sedan in W oodburn Street about 6pm on May 15, 1986. He had suffered multi-ple gunshot wounds.
He was due home to help celebrate his son’s 13th birthday that night but never arrived at the party.
Police are hopeful the NS W G overn-ment’s r eward o f u p t o $ 100,000 f or information will lead to the arrest and conviction of the person or the people responsible for Mr Faul’s death.
Anyone w ith any information should call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

R ecently re- elected M ember for Grayndler An thony Albanese has put his name in to the rin g for the Federal Labor leadership,
which is being decided by a ballot.It was widely anticipated he would seek
the L abor leadership , after enjo ying a short but ev entful stint as D eputy P rime Minister benea th former P rime Minister Kevin Rudd throughout the election cam-paign in August and September.
Mr Albanese was undec ided after the election, ho wever after consultin g w ith his family he dec ided to put his nomina-tion forward.
Mr Albanese is con testing the posi tion against former Na tional S ecretary of the Australian Workers Union, Bill Shorten.

and file members to be part of a ballot that has equal w eighting to the v otes of the caucus. It will be a month long process to decide who w ill ultimately be the leader of the Opposition.
The popular M ember for Gra yndler launched his leadership c ampaign on Tuesday night in Sydney.
In put ting his nomina tion for ward, Mr Albanese said he was the best c andidate to lead the Labor Party because he had the experience to get it back into government.
“I’m the best c andidate to lead L abor back in to g overnment a t the ne xt elec-tion,” he said.
“I’m standing because I ha ve the polic y credentials developed over a lon g period of time. I’ m standing because as a senior minister in the g overnment for six y ears I ha ve look ed after inf rastructure, trans-port, regional development, local govern-ment, broadband communic ations and the digital economy.”
Senior Labor figures who are backing Mr Albanese include Greg Combet and Penny Wong. Ms W ong said she believ es ei ther candidate would make an excellent Prime Minister, but said Mr Albanese had the ex-perience for the job.
The result of the ballot is e xpected to be announced on October 13.
Man's vehicle is torched after leaving it unattended
A man's car has been torched after it was left parked in a local street over a couple of nights.
A man left his vehicle parked in Meeks Road, Marrickville on Tuesday, September 10. On Friday, September 13, he returned to the location to retrieve his vehicle and discovered his vehicle had been damaged by fire.
The man noticed one of the windows was smashed and the interior to the vehi-cle was also extensively damaged by fire.
Police are appealing for anyone who saw suspicious behaviour in this area to come formward. Anyone with information is urged to contact the Marrickville Local Area Command on 9568 9299 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Random breath test catches out drink driver in Lewisham
About 10pm on Friday, September 13, police stopped a driver on Denison Road, Lewisham for the purpose of a Random Breath test.
Police spoke with the driver and sub-jected him to a roadside breath test, to which he produced a positive reading.
As a result the driver was arrested and taken to Newtown Police Station for a further breath analysis, which was also a positive result.
The driver was charged with driving whilst under the influence of alcohol with a mid range PCA and his licence was im-mediately suspended.
The man is due to face Newtown Local Court next month in relation to the matter and is facing the possibility of being fined.
Police investigate theft of Yamaha quad bike

The property is located near the inter-section of Northumberland Lane. Once inside the person/s have stolen a Yamaha Quad bike. Police were called to investi-gate the incident.
Anyone with information about this in-cident is urged to contact the Marrickville Local Area Command on 9568 9299 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Warning issued about illicit use of party drugs
Police have issued a warning about the use of party drugs and the risk party-goes take when supplying, carrying or taking illegal drugs.
“Our message is very clear: for anyone who is contemplating taking illegal drugs or synthetic substances, don’t do it. Don’t take the risk; don’t play Russian roulette with your life. Drugs are dangerous, drugs are bad, drugs are potentially lethal,” said Detective Acting Chief Superintendent Arthur Katsogiannis.
He said that police will do their job as the commutiy expects and arrest and charge anyone found to be using or distributing illegal party drugs.

ID scanners at Kings Cross hotels
Online auction websites warning
Tony Abbott w as officially sworn in as Australia’s new Prime Minister in Canber-ra on Wednesday morning.
“We will strive to g overn for all A ustra-lians, including those who didn ’t vote for
us,” Mr Abbott said after being sworn in.“We aim to be a c alm, measured, steady
and purposeful g overnment tha t sa ys what it means and does what it says.
“We w on’t f orget t hose w ho a re of ten
marginalised: people w ith disabilities, in-digenous people and women struggling to combine career and family.
“We will do our best not to leave anyone behind.”
Applications will be open soon for events and activities as part of Marrick-ville Counc il’s 10-da y festi val, Open Marrickville 2014.
Open Marrickv ille 2014 w ill be the Council’s third festival celebrating the culture and di versity of Marrickv ille through storytelling, music, dance, art, theatre, food, and more.
“Council wan ts our young cultur-ally and lin guistically di verse (CALD) community to take pride in their back-grounds, and understand their parents’ and grandparents’ history and values,” said the Mayor of Marrickville Council-lor Victor Macri.
See the Marrickv ille Counc il website for more details.
High risk licensed v enues in Kin gs Cross w ill h ave t o o perate id entifica-tion scanners for most of their opera t-ing hours as w ell as public holida ys, special days and the 2 4 hours preced-ing those days, Minister for Hospitality, George Souris, announced this week.
“The introduction of ID scanners into Kings Cross heralds the roll out of the next phase of the NS W G overnment’s crackdown on alcohol-fuelled v io-lence,” Mr Souris said.
The r egulations w ill r equire t hese venues to opera te ID sc anners f rom 7pm on Thursda ys con tinuously through to 7am on M ondays and on Mondays, Tuesda ys and W ednesdays from 7pm to 7am.
Fair Tradin g Commissioner R od Stowe is warning online consumers to avoid penn y auc tion w ebsites where the odds are stacked against the major-ity of bidders and the auction limits the number and value of wins per account, places expiry dates on bids sol d or has heavily restrictive terms on returns of goods.
Online penn y auc tions are w ebsites that offer g oods on auc tion for mini-mal or no reserve price and where bids are placed in small amounts, often less than a dollar.
“On some of the w orst sites, it’s less like taking part in an auction and more like gamblin g on a horse race where you c an't see an y of the other horses and the finishin g line k eeps mo ving away,” he said.
He urged consumers to read the fine print, search independen t si tes for feedback and not to rush into large and expensive purchases. V isit w ww.fair-trading.nsw.gov.au.
“There will be a number of safeguards to ensure the integrity of the ID scanning system and to protect personal data,” George Souris said.

F rustrated commuters w ill g et a repriev e f rom o vercrowded trains w ith the in troduction of a new timetable commenc ing on
October 20. The chan ges w ill see the B ankstown

Transport Minister Gladys B erejiklian said the new timetable made use of the existing infrastructure and “rolling stock” to create a better outcome for commuters.
“There are impro ved stoppin g pa tterns to reduce congestion and more consistent departure times, meanin g c ustomers a t busier stations won’t need a timetable and platforms will be less crowded,” she said.
The Minister said the o verhaul aimed to maximise positive customer experience.

the biggest re-write of the train timetable in a generation with the aim of deli vering benefits to as many customers as possible. This is a timetable designed around the needs of customers – previous timetables

• More than 20 ,000 e xtra sea ts to the city every weekday morning.
• Reduced journey times for customers travelling lon ger distances, includ-ing many on in tercity services. More trains to and f rom S ydney Airport - 145 extra services a week.
Ms Berejiklian said the g overnment had to factor in that commuters were working longer hours.
“We know a lot of commuters are w ork-ing longer hours, so ser vice frequency for people headin g out of the c ity has been extended later into the evening and simi-larly in the morning,” she said.
But Shado w Transport Minister , P enny Sharpe, has her doubts about the changes.
“The failure to reduce road con gestion by providing more trains on the w eekend is a lost opportunity,” she said.
“The G overnment’s failure to release a draft or allo w an y communi ty consulta-tion means tha t for commuters the dev il will be in the detail tha t emer ges o ver coming days.”
The last train timetable upgrade was in March 2011 which added an extra 107 train services. More details can be found on www.newtimetables.com.au.

S eptember is the mon th when the warmer weather comes in to play, but it’s also magpie breedin g sea-son.
Magpies are usually friendly, but in Sep-tember they are known to become protec-tive of their nests durin g breeding, which means they a ttack pedestrians and c y-clists. Their hostility is usually over by the end of the month.
NSW Ambulance Inspector Norm Spald-ing said injuries people can sustain from a magpie attack are extensive.
From cuts to the head and pecks to the ears, to more serious outcomes, pedestri-ans and cyclists are warned to take heed.
“Every year NSW Ambulance receives calls for people sufferin g injuries f rom swooping birds and i t can be v ery upset-ting, especially for children,” Inspector
It is magpie breeding season, which means pedestrians and cyclists should take care

Spalding said.Cyclists are more at risk from losing bal-
ance whilst being attacked, which c an re-sult in open w ounds and broken noses as a consequence of crashing.
If riding a bike through a magpie nesting area, people are encourag ed to con tinue to ride if they are attacked.
However the better option is to get off the bike and walk the bik e through. Most magpies will only swoop within 50 metres of their nest.
Inspector Sp alding said if peopl e w ere attacked they shoul d remain c alm ev en if the urge is to panic. Panickin g will only provoke the birds further.
Inspector Spalding said if bleedin g oc-curs f rom an open w ound the v ictim should apply pressure on the area and keep it clean. A doc tor should be consult-ed who may recommend a tetanus shot.
He said if the injur y is more serious, Tri-ple 000 should be called immediately and an ambulance asked for.
Tips for surviving magpie swooping sea-son include:• Travel in groups where possible.
Swooping birds will generally only tar-get individuals.
• Wear sunglasses and a broad-brimmed hat for protection.
• Try to k eep a wa tch on the magpie. Magpies usually sw oop f rom behind and it is known that magpies are much less likely to swoop if they’re being watched directly.
• Do not return after bein g a ttacked, Magpies w ill a ttack the same people again and again.
It is also very important that if you have young chil dren pla ying outside where a magpie may have nested that they are ap-propriately supervised.
If a resident feels that a magpie is a men-ace they c an con tact the NS W Na tional Parks and Wildlife Service on 1300 361 967 and report it.

News in numbers
Sydney’s first new theatre in six years is set to be open for business with the Eternity Playhouse at Darlinghurst holding an open day on Sunday.
Housed in a converted Victorian-era church in Darlinghurst, the Eternity
Playhouse will host a public open day from 11am.
Following its $7.9 million transforma-tion by the City of Sydney, it is the first
theatre to be opened since Carriage-works in Eveleigh raised its curtains in 2007.
Sydneysiders will be able to step backstage, explore the dressing rooms and try their luck on the stage at the community open day, which will also feature musical entertainment and light refreshments.
The theatre’s inaugural show by renowned theatre director Iain Sinclair is Arthur Miller’s All My Sons, which will open at the theatre in spectacular fashion on November 5.
The play features a stellar cast in-cluding Marshall Napier, Toni Scanlan, Briallen Clarke, Robin Goldsworthy, Anthony Gooley, Andrew Henry and Meredith Penman.
We all hope to leave the world better off than when we entered it. One way to do this is through including a char-ity in your Will.
Leaving a generous gift to the Leu-kaemia Foundation in your Will makes it possible for the Foundation to con-tinue its work supporting thousands of Australians affected by blood cancer, with around 50,000 Australians cur-rently living with the disease.
“Including a charity in your Will is a very personal decision but can be one of the greatest Gifts” says Christine McMillan, General Manager NSW/ACT.
A legacy gift included in your Will can take many forms. One gentle-man, who had seen the support we’d
provided his late wife, included the Leukaemia Foundation, in his Will through the gift of their home.
“It is incredibly important that if you have included us in your Will you speak to our team, to allow us to thank you and to ensure that the Foundation is able to use your generous gift as you intended,” said McMillan.

At the time of the installation of the new lights, about three w eeks ag o, the club also received a new energy consumption monitoring device called a Smart meter.
“The amazing thing about this apparatus
is that i t provides real time da ta on ho w much energy the club is using.
“You monitor the usage on the internet,” Mr Mining said.
He said the purpose of usin g the Smart
meter was another wa y the club w ould utilise the reduction of energy costs.
The new ligh ts w ill benefi t a ran ge of PCYC members who pla y basketball, fut-sal, weights and dancing to name a few.
E nergy efficient lighting has been installed at the Marrickville PCYC that w ill sa ve the y outh cen tre thousands of dollars on their
electricity bills thanks to a program de-signed to reduce energy costs.
The initiative called The Community En-ergy Efficiency Program (CEEP) provided $112 million in grants to 170 local govern-ment and non-profi t community groups, which will transform their existing energy practices into more cost and ener gy effi-cient practices.
The lights in the main hall at Marrickville PCYC have been overhauled. Previously the lights took around 10 minutes to fully illuminate. Now the lights power on at the flick of a switch.
The benefits of the new ener gy efficient lights are pleasing in more ways than one according to Marrickv ille P CYC Manag er Justin Mining.
“When we look a t the ener gy efficiency these lights will bring, they are enormous. It delivers a ran ge of en vironmental ben-efits including a 6 5-70 per cen t reduction in energy costs for Marrickville PCYC,” Mr Mining said.
The cost sa vings, expected to be in the thousands, will go towards other areas of need for the club.
“We c an spend the money tha t w e are saving on other programs for y oung peo-ple in our community,” he said.
L ocal member for Marrickville Car-mel T ebbutt is ur ging residen ts in the Marrickv ille area to v ote for community groups who they
think shoul d g et a slice of a $200 ,000 grassroots funding program.
It’s all part of the Communi ty Buil ding Partnership P rogram designed to help community groups and organisations.
Ms T ebbutt will mak e a recommenda-tion to the program on which groups are most in need, based on the number of nominations she receives from residents.
She said the Department of Premier and Cabinet w ould assess the projec ts and their communi ty benefi ts and w ill mak e the final recommendations.

BASIL NAIMET@ICWJournalist
“This y ear there ha ve been 18 applic a-tions from community groups in the Mar-rickville electorate,” she said.
Previous rec ipients w ere: H oly Trini ty Church Hall at Dulwich Hill who recei ved just over $45,000 to upgrade their disabili-ty access, change room, toilet and kitchen; and $22,000 for the Greek Orthodox Com-munity for reno vations to their Commu-nity Day Care Centre in Petersham.
It is believed this year over $450,000 has been allocated for the Communi ty Build-ing Partnership P rogram, ho wever only half of tha t w ill be a vailable to the Mar-rickville electorate.
Ms Tebbutt is k een to hear f rom people supporting their community groups or or-ganisations to maximise their chances of receiving part of the grant.
“Unfortunately funds are limi ted to $200,000 and not all projec ts will be suc-cessful in sec uring a gran t. Tha t’s wh y I wan t to hear f rom all residen ts about which projec ts they think most deser ve funding,” she said.

Energy bill is set to be reduced by up to 70 per cent thanks to new lights

Full Moon in Pisces opposses the sun in Virgo
September 19th –
October 5th
Complications are likely with joint finances, loans, legal issues, insurance claims, payments and other arrangements. However,
you need to avoid getting into wrangles with bureaucrats, officials and other people no ma tter how strong your desire is to put them in their place, as this will only make a difficult situation worse.
AQUARIUS JANUARY 21 TO FEBRUARY 19
You have to admit Pisces, you are not always the easiest person to deal w ith and righ t now you are determined to impose y our
ideas and thoughts on other people creating a stir both at home and at work, resulting in y ou being told that you are stubborn, short sigh ted and simply making trouble.
PISCES FEBRUARY 20 TO MARCH 20
The next fortnight is likely to be a highly vulnerable time for you and you need to be careful of being your own worst enemy. You
will be feeling highly vulnerable especially at work and will need to be careful of confusion, deceit and uncertainty. Don’t buy into gossip and don’t allow your emotions to control you. Before you jump to conclu-sions be certain that you have your facts right.
ARIES MARCH 21 TO APRIL 20
Misunderstandings are likely in relationships over the next two weeks and if they are not handled w ith diplomacy breakups are
likely. By considering your lover’s thoughts and ideas ra ther than just trying to bulldoze them into compliance you can sidestep most issues. Children are likely to be a cause of concern.
TAURUS APRIL 21 TO MAY 21
When i t comes to family and property ma tters there w ill be a good deal of confusion and mud dle. It’s important to bear this
in mind, particularly if you’re buying a home or renovating. Make sure that you aren’t totally r uled by your heart or y ou could make a major mistake. Listen to your common sense.
GEMINI MAY 22 TO JUNE 21
The planets suggest that you’ll only damage your own prospects if you insist on sticking in a rut or with one train of thought. You
must escape from the mental restrictions you have built around your-self. Among them are the bouts of jealousy or envy that seem to eat you up inside.
CANCER JUNE 22 TO JULY 22
During the next fortnight you are going to have to put some se-rious thought into your finances. You need to be pr epared for
unexpected expenses; also it is important to double check all financ ial statements. Have a conversation with your partner involving your pos-sessions and earnings.
LEO JULY 23 TO AUGUST 23
Your home and family ma y begin to resemble a nest of eg o ma-niacs and it will be necessary for you to take a cold but practical
approach to certain decisions. Which will mean confronting faults and difficult truths in yourself as well as others. This ma y bring you some moments of anxiety but you will flourish.
VIRGO AUGUST 24 TO SEPTEMBER 23
Destiny or fate, whatever you like to call it, seems to have been sufficiently unkind lately to leave you wondering if you are the
target of a campaign of dirty tricks. But set aside such worries or suspi-cions as that imagination of yours is running away with you. Events will unfold into something remarkable, so all you basically need is some of that splendid patience and determination.
LIBRA SEPTEMBER 24 TO OCTOBER 23
Problems and difficulties are likely regarding certain friendships as some of the people in y our li fe are g oing to be ev en more
grumpy, stressed out and self absorbed than is usually the c ase. How-ever, it is not up to y ou to resolv e other peop le’s problems for th em, therefore don’t allow yourself to become overly involved.
SCORPIO OCTOBER 24 TO NOVEMBER 22
There could be some almigh ty blunders on the w ork front and it will certainly pay to double check everything you are working
on so that if this should occur it will be the fault of other people ra ther than your good self. In fact certain workmates, contacts and colleagues could be disgruntled and uncooperative.
SAGITTARIUS NOVEMBER 23 TO DECEMBER 21
Delays and hold ups are likely with travel plans; the car may run out of petrol or break do wn at the most inconvenient time. The
public transport you depend upon may suddenly disappear off the face of the earth and that flight you have booked may be held up indefinite-ly. Be certain to double check all arrangements.
CAPRICORN DECEMBER 22 TO JANUARY 20
Alongside catching up w ith friends, having a few drinks and betting on the horses, fashion is the most important and most talk ed about aspec t of the Sprin g Carnival sea-son. L ast w eekend I was in vited to celebra te a f riend’s birthday at Rosehill Gardens for the ‘ Golden Rose’ to kick off the spring racing season. The superb weather and elec-tric atmosphere were a recipe for an awesome day, and it was just that.
When y ou took a look around the sea of colour , there were men in suits wearing ties in every colour possible and there were women in the most lovely summer dresses.
I chose to go for a simple outfit – a black top and a green, pink, blue and yellow floral skirt with my favourite strappy black heels and a modera tely sized feathered flower fasci-nator, also in black, but I’ll admi t picking my outfit wasn’t an easy choice.
Going to an ev ent w ith such a lar ge foc us on fashion means that planning an outfit can be a little stressful; but if you have a basic knowledge of the spring racing trends and what not to do, getting ready can be simple.
When planning for a trip to the races, the most im-portant guideline to remember is tha t the ev ent
is based around class – the races are e xpensive, classy days out so it is important to dress to the
occasion. Women shoul d alwa ys dress mod-estly, keeping the dress or skirt close to the knee and covering up any cleavage, and men should wear dress-shoes and a tie with nice pants, a belt and sui t jacket, if the weather is cool.
This season, the up-do is the g o-to hair-style for women and teamed with a brightly
coloured fascinator, you can’t go wrong.Wearing a big fasc inator can be pretty daunt-
ing, especially if you haven’t been to the races be-fore so, if you aren’t keen on going all-out a small flower
or feathered piece in your hair will work a treat.

Some people think of the sporty kid at school as not being overly bright, or ma ybe you have heard a sa ying ‘can’t have the body and the brains’ or somethin g similar. But maybe it’s the people that think that way that are the silly ones.
In just one recent study of many that have tied physical per-formance to mental performance, 48 children aged nine to 10 were asked to memorise names and loc ations on a fic titious map, either only by studying the information or being tested on the material as they studied.
Half the chil dren w ere in the top 30 per cent of their ag e group on a test measuring aerobic fitness, while the other half scored in the lowest 30 per cent. When asked to recollect the information studied, chil dren who w ere fi tter consisten tly performed better than those who were not as fit.
The difference betw een the high-fi tness and lo w-fitness groups was also stron ger when the ini tial learning was per-formed by studying alone than when testing and study were combined. P revious studies ha ve sugg ested tha t combining testing and study improves later recall in children, and is less challenging than studying alone. Based on these results, the study authors suggest that fitness levels may influence learn-ing increases even when the study method used is more chal-lenging, and tha t higher lev els of aerobic fi tness can benefit learning and memory in school-age children.
Keeping your kids on the books all the time at the expense of a good play outside may be doing more harm than good.
In addition, the study suggests these findings may be impor-tant f rom an educ ational polic y perspec tive. As the authors state, “Reducing or eliminating physical education in schools, as is often done in tigh t financial times, ma y not be the best way to ensure educational success.”
Hopefully our new g overnment thinks i t’s w orth k eeping our kids’ fundin g for their health bec ause i t w ill help them get smarter. Also look around for activities like little athletics, team sports and all sorts of ways to get the kids up and active and know they can have the body and the brains!

Before y ou g o out and spend a lot of money on the la test ‘age defying’ cos-metics, try something that might have a real effect.
A research team f rom the University of California says it has found the first evidence tha t a stric t regime of e xer-cise, diet and meditation can have such an effect on ageing.
Going on a health kick reverses ageing at the cellular lev el they believ e. The study l ooked a t 3 5 m en w ith p rostate cancer.
The researchers sa w v isible cellular changes in the group of 10 men who switched to a healthy diet and stuck to a recommended timetable of exercise and stress-busting meditation and yoga.
The changes on a cellular level related to protective caps at the end of our chromosomes, called telomeres. Their role is to safeguard the end of the chromosome and to prevent the loss of genetic information during cell division.
As we age and our cells di vide, our telomeres g et shorter – their structural integrity weakens, which can tell cells to stop dividing and die.
The la test w ork b y P rofessor D ean Ornish and colleagues suggests telomeres can be lengthened, given the right encour-agement. They measured telomere length at the beginning of their study and again after five years.
Among the 10 men with low-risk prostate cancer who made comprehensive lifestyle chan ges, telomere length inc reased significantly by an average of 10 per cen t. In comparison, tel-omere length decreased by an average of three per cent in the remaining 25 men who were not asked to make any lifestyle changes.
Good news for those people that know real ‘anti-ageing’ isn’t found in a skincare bottle and sold in bulk from the local cor-ner supermarket.

Big dance in small chucks hits Riverside Theatres
Two of the Inner W est’s top dance performers and cho -reographers will be taking to the stag e ne xt mon th in the Dance Makers Collective’s
‘Big Dance In Small Chunks’ at the Lennox Theatre, Riverside Parramatta.
The Collective is a collaboration of inde-pendent performers and music ians who come together to showcase their talents.
Sisters M elanie and Marnie Palomares from Dulwich Hill will feature with 10 oth-er artists durin g the four da y show. Both have years of experience working with in-dependent choreographers.
In 2011 M elanie w orked w ith Shaun Parker and Compan y in ‘Happ y as L arry’ and toured the UK and R eunion Island. She was ac ting R ehearsal Direc tor for Shaun Parker’s ‘The Yard’ and toured with them regionally in 2012.
Marnie has performed throughout Aus-tralia and in New Zealand, Europe, Ameri-ca, London and Korea. Her choreographic credits include ‘ Chapter One ’ for P ulse8 Dance Compan y in 2008 and ‘Ph ysical Fracture’ (with her sister M elanie) for the Sydney Festival First Night (2009).
She choreographed for the Nick elodeon Kids Choice Awards 2011 for performanc-es by Cody Simpson, Stan Walker and the ever-popular Jack Vidgen.

Most music lo vers c an fondly re call t he f irst real concert they ev er went to, and veteran performer Jon English is
no exception. In his case, the day that the then 15-year-
old sa w The B eatles perform li ve wasn ’t just special – i t was life- changing, propel-ling him on to a c areer pa th tha t w ould make him a household name.
“I think when m y sister took me to see The B eatles a t R ushcutters B ay Stadium in Sydney in 1964, that was when I sort of went ‘wow, this is great’ and more to the point it was when I thought, ‘Jesus, maybe
I could do this, make a living out of it’. So that was probably the ultima te moment,” English said.
The Bri tish-born music ian mo ved to Australia when he was 12- years-old, and said tha t he began pla ying music in his teens, partly because it was a good way to pass the time.
“We w ere f rom the w estern suburbs of Sydney and there wasn’t a big surfing cul-ture there, for ob vious reasons, and there wasn’t a lot to do , so you had two choices – you could kind of han g out around the station... or play music,” he explained.
English got his first taste of professional performance in the la te 60 ’s when he joined Sebastian Hardie, but although he loved being in a rock band, he left in 1972 after bein g c ast as J udas Isc ariot in the Australian cast of ‘Jesus Christ Superstar’.
He then c arved out a c areer in TV, which spurred on his popularity.
Recently, English has been busy a t work with his rock tribute concerts and penning
musical sho w ‘Paris’, which is a vailable on iTunes, and ‘Busk ers and An gels’. He is currently touring venues in Sydney per-forming his ‘Trilogy of Rock’ show.
BLAST FROM THE PAST
Jon English takes to the stage in new tour
The 10 artists w ill presen t nine new and exciting short works described as explosive dance in ‘ bite-sized’ bursts. Filmmakers, music ians, v isual artists, lighting and set designers w ill add the spectacle of sight, sound and colour.
DMC driving force Carl Sciberras, said he was excited to see DMC bring emerg-ing musicians and performers together for such a high quality show.
“We decided to dev elop Big Dance in Small Chunks – a program tha t gi ves
every member the chance to create and perform a short work,” he said.
‘Big Dance in Small Chunks’ sho ws at Riverside Theatres, Parramatta from October 23 to 26 at 8pm. Visit www.riv-ersideparramatta.com.au for details.

CHATTERON THE BOX
There’s been plenty of action over in the
Channel Ten news depart-ment this past week. Firstly, one of the best young televi-sion journalists in Australia right now, Hamish MacDon-ald, has quit the network. \Meanwhile, Jessica Rowe is back and will be part of the morning show ‘Studio 10’. Lastly, Ten has re-launched the ‘Eyewitness News’ brand with live news streaming.
Channel Nine won’t be happy that their big
budget, hugely hyped series ‘Power Games: The Packer-Murdoch Story’ bombed. The second and final episode only managed to hit 773,000 viewers, down 20,000 from the previous week. Nine had hopes for the series on the back of last year’s Packer drama ‘Howzat’ but viewers didn’t share that passion for Kerry’s father Frank.
With the show set to end next month,
‘Breaking Bad’ fans will soon have something else to look forward to, a spin-off series. Titled ‘Better Call Saul’, the series will serve as a prequel and centre on attorney Saul Goodman, Walter White’s lawyer.
In some better news for Nine it has secured
the IronMan and IronWom-an Series from January next year. The 2014 series will be shorter and faster than previous events, with races conducted at three new loca-tions starting in Margaret River in Western Australia.
Channel Nine are copping it hard from
viewers of ‘Weekend Today’ after popular American entertainment correspond-ent Michelle Mahone was axed from the program. Last weekend the show used a lo-cal entertainment reporter in studio, which didn’t quite hit the mark in my opinion.
Lastly, just when you thought there couldn’t
possibly be anymore pawn shows, two more popped up on A&E last week. ‘Pawn Stars UK’ is a flop but I did very much enjoy the spin-off series ‘Hardcore Pawn Chicago’. ‘Hardcore Pawn Chicago’ airs Tuesday nights at 7.30pm.

I t was another thriller match and a close call for New town, who manag ed to hol d on to a w in against W entworthville last weekend.
Newtown started the ma tch against W ent-worthville in spec tacular fashion, which took them on a scorin g spree w ith 40 unansw ered points in the first half.
It was close to the J ets’ best first half perfor-mance in sev eral weeks as halv es Ryley Jacks and Adam Henry were in top form; Jacks figur-ing prominently in New town’s first five tries, and scoring two.
The second half was a differen t stor y ho w-ever as the J ets’ standar d of pla y fell b y the wayside. Their completion ra te was no where as solid as the first, which sa w it drop from 87 per cent in the first half to 5 4 per cen t in the second.
There would have been cause for concern for Jets coach Greg Ma tterson who w itnessed his team succumb to 26 unanswered points in the second half.
