WILD BUSHFIREThree days, 7000 hectares burnt, and over 300 firefighters

Police have started investigationsinto whether sparks from an anglegrinder ignited a bushfire inBullsbrook that tore through morethan 6650 hectares of land, lastweekend.

The Sun City News understandsworkers for a company that co-leases a lot on Railway Parade,where the fire started onSaturday, had been carrying outgrinding work in the days leadingup to the fire.

A total fire ban, barring metalwork such as grinding, had not

been issued for the metropolitanarea by the Department of Fireand Emergency Services.

Numerous emergency firewarnings were issued Saturdayas the fire headed towardsNowergup, Merriwa and Butler.

At the height of the fire over 300firefighters plus aerial supporttackled the furious fire. Majorroads in the region were closed.These included Wanneroo Road,Neaves Road and Old YanchepRoad. Many local residents wereevacuated.

Warnings were downgraded to awatch and act alert early Sundaymorning after firefighters savedmore than 100 homes from theblaze, which destroyed twoderelict houses, five sheds andseveral power poles.

On Saturday, the bushfire wasmoving at more than twokilometres per hour in a north-westerly direction.

It had jumped containment linesand was burning in the GnangaraPine Plantation towardsWanneroo Road.

The emergency warning wasreinstated on Sunday afternoonafter a wind change occurredcausing the fire to head towardsthe Shire of Chittering.

Smoke from the fire was visiblefrom Fremantle and Rottnest, 68kilometres south-west of Bullsbrook.

FIREBREAKSVice President of the Associationof Volunteer Bush Fire Brigades,Dave Gossage, said holes in thelaw have allowed governments toget away with neglecting to

adequately manage bush landthat presents fire risks withoutaccountability.

About 93 per cent of WA's landarea is classified as Crown andincluded areas that were fire-ravaged.

A private landowner can be finedfor not doing their firebreaks butyet on the other side of the fence,on Crown land, they don't have todo anything

Chicken farm update

Last month, the Humane SocietyInternational called on Australia’smajor supermarkets, includingColes and Woolworths toreconsider stocking Swan ValleyEgg farm or Snowdale Holdingsproduce, after media reportsabout its Carabooda egg farm.

The Sun City News first alertedCity of Wanneroo health officers,last September, about the chickenmanure dumping, hundreds ofdead carcases dumped and othercommunity concerns about theCarabooda egg farm.

Humane Society Internationalsaid it started investigatingSnowdale Holdings and they,Snowdale, were misleading ordeceiving consumers with regardto its free range labelling.

Snowdale Holdings is due in theFederal Court on 8 April, after thecompany was taken to court bythe Australian Competition andConsumer Commission last year,claiming the egg farm’s conditionswere not free range.

The egg farm has been subject tonumerous complaints to the Cityof Swan about odours from itsSwan Valley egg farm affectingneighbours who do not have thebenefit of the 500 metre minimumbuffer from existing or futureresidential development.

Neighbouring residents told theMidland Echo News they areangry that the StateAdministrative Tribunal sessionscheduled for September, lastyear, had been deferred and

during this period big quantities ofmanure was removed from theegg farm.

This caused “a constant appallingand all pervading stench, theincessant drone of bobcats andtrucks and manure laden dust (inbetween the showers)’’.

After the Sun City News alertedthe City of Wanneroo aboutissues at the Carabooda eggfarm, health officers have takensamples and continue toinvestigate the farm without anylegal action being taken.

City of Wanneroo’s City BusinessDirector, Chris Morrison, told theSun City News: “The City ofWanneroo continues to examineavailable information and isawaiting the final report from theforensic science laboratory.

“This final report (due next week)will look at the possibility of flybreeding from manure samplestaken from the property.

“To date the City has receivedpartial components however, as isthe case in all legal matters, weare unable to comment until allfinal reports have been received.

“Once all relevant information hasbeen received and reviewed bythe City, we will be able to make adecision regarding any potentiallegal action.”

City ask cafes to buy elsewhereThe City of Swan has asked localrestaurants and cafes in theSwan Valley to avoid using eggsfrom Swan Valley Egg Farm toshow their support to theHumane Food Region program.

Only a handful of restaurantswere known to use eggs fromSwan Valley Egg Farm, and allhave been asked to look for analternative supplier.

The egg farm became mired incontroversy over allegedlyincorrect labelling free-rangeeggs.

The City of Swan wrote torestaurants requesting they stopusing Swan Valley Egg Farmproducts at the beginning ofDecember.

According to City of Swan CEO,Mike Foley, some restaurantshad already started sourcing anew egg supplier.

The Humane Society InternationalAustralia has called on Woolworthsand Coles to drop WesternAustralia's largest egg supplier,Snowdale Holdings (SwanValley Egg Farm) overallegations it falsely labelled itsfree-range eggs.

"Evidence is mounting againstSnowdale not only ofmisrepresentation regarding itslabelling but also of the cruel and

unsanitary conditions in which itshens are raised," HSI wrote inseparate letters to the powerfulsupermarket chains.

"We urgently request Coles/Woolworths to stop selling alleggs labelled as 'free range'supplied by Snowdale whetherunbranded or sold under theSwan Valley or Eggs by Ellah labels."

The Australian Competition andConsumer Commission claimsPerth-based Snowdale sold 71per cent of its eggs as "freerange" from 2012-13, charging apremium for them.

ACCC alleges Snowdale ‘madefalse, misleading or deceptiverepresentations on its egg cartonsand websites that its hens wereable to move about freely on openranges on most days’.

As part of its evidence, theconsumer watchdog allegesSnowdale squeezed more than100 times the recommendednumber of laying hens into itsbarns, up to 17 hens per squaremetre, and failed to provideadequate outdoor ranges withshade and easy access.

The CSIRO recommends 1500hens per hectare under animalwelfare guidelines for free-rangeeggs.

Starting a Mens Shedin Yanchep/Two RocksI have been living in Yanchepfor four years, and really lovethe area, and especially thecommunity feel of this area.

However I'm afraid that this isnot the experience for allolder residents, in particularmen.

Most of the ladies that Isocialise with in Yanchep andTwo Rocks, are of the sameopinion, and we were hopingthat you could help us find outif there would be sufficientinterest from the local menfolk to start up a Mens Shed.

The nearest one to our areais almost 40 kilometres away.

I intend to put up someposters around the doctors,post office and communitycentres, but I think that if wecould have the support of theSun City News, that wouldgive us a boost to start.

I would value any advice frommembers of the community,please do not hesitate to callme. I am just taking the firststep to test the water

Morag Crompton, Yanchep.

Happy recyclingWho grabbed all of thecopper out of the recent bulkrubbish collection?

I would like to know as I andother people put out somevery good reuseable thingsthat would be good forsomeone else to recycle(make use of), but I went outto find every bit of usefulgoods with the copper,aluminium or whatever othermetals worth a dollar torn outof all useful items.

I believe this is not right, so ifyou see these steely peopledoing the same in front ofyour house please tell themwhere to go!

KN, via web site.

ReplyDear Barry Rowe, I wasamazed when reading a copyof Sun City News, to readyour account of anexperience on the Pippdinnyroundabout.

I am not sure of the exactlocation of the speed sign yourefer to but am pretty sure thespeed on this section of roadhas always been 80km/h.

What you seem to have thewrong impression is that the

speed sign is to tell you whatspeed you must travel.

It really tells you themaximum speed you canlegally travel on the road.

I would be surprised if manydrivers feel it would be safe todo a small roundabout at80km/h.

I think if you check road trafficrules the posted speed is themaximum you are allowed todrive not the best speed. Allroads have either times orconditions that indicate it isbetter to travel slower.

D J Baum, via email.

Who's responsibleBarry Rowe sounds to me tobe an idiot behind the wheel.

Before you get to thisroundabout there is a signrecommending the speed tobe 60km/h for this roundabout- This sign is approximately100 metres before theroundabout.

Another thing, as well is the80km/h signage is for themaximum speed permissiblenot that you have to maintain80km/h regardless of the roadconditions.

I would suggest that you,Barry, undergo defensive

driving instructions as I wouldnot like to have you drivinganywhere near me on theroad if you think like that.

I am an out of town strangerand I drive to the conditionsand, day or night, have plentyof time to see and slow forroundabouts.

Kelvin Smyth, via email.

GripesI was so looking forward tothe new Capricorn EsplanadeRoad being completed as thismakes walking along thebeach road very easy now.

However, two things thathappen on a regular basisspoil it.

One is the hoon drivers thatthink it is a race track, sodangerous as this happensany time of the day or night.

And, secondly, the peoplethat think it is okay to let theirdogs make a mess on thepath and just leave it there.

Have some consideration forthe other people who use thepath.

Sharon, Yanchep.

OPINIONSFROM THE EDITOR’S DESKDid you make any new year’sresolutions?

New Year’s resolutions are kindof like a drunk uncle. You knowyou shouldn’t take him tooseriously, but you can’t help butlaugh and play along when hecomes around once a year.

It’s become popular for people tomake fun of New Year’sresolutions, they never work, inan almost gleeful way.

Why don’t resolutions work?

Human behaviour, we wouldrather continue doing somethingthat doesn’t work rather than trysomething new that could work,but also could fail.

That sounds insane, but thinkabout it - First, think back to yourresolutions from last January.

Did you follow through? Do youeven remember what they were?Yet how many of us weretempted to make moreresolutions this year?

Failing at our resolutions hasimplications, we start to distrustourselves.

If you’ve set the sameresolutions for five years, andnever followed through, whatmakes you think you’ll bedifferent this year?

Rather than setting new yearresolutions, I prefer to focus onwhat I’m going to do this week,by Friday.

It’s more achieveable, it worksand I get things done - How haveyour new year resolutions beengoing?

Arson at Cassilda Park

A fire was deliberately ignited in the middle ofbushland at Cassilda Park, Two Rocks.

Several young Tuart Trees were burnt. Thanksto a rapid response by the local fire team, whoarrived with several trucks and a heap ofvolunteers, the fire was contained andextinguished quickly without spreading toneighbouring properties.

Anybody with information about those who setthe park on fire should contact the police on 131444. Rewards of up to $50,000 are paid forsuccessful convictions for arson.

New action groupThe Sun City News is aware of a local group ofouter northern suburb disgruntled residents whoare so upset at the lack of local infrastructurefacilities and services being provided by the Cityof Wanneroo that they are considering settingup a new action group - A ‘Ratepayers’ Alliance’.

A number of these groups have beenestablished in the eastern states with greatsuccess - They are usually independent groupsfighting for lower rates, smaller government,reduction in waste, better use of technology inlocal government with direct decisions tosupport the whole of the community.

More next issue.

Local surf clubs get funding boostThe Yanchep Surf Life SavingClub and the Quinns-Mindarie Surf Life SavingClub will receive a fundingboost to prevent drownings atlocal beaches.

The Federal Member forPearce, Christian Porter, saidthe Australian Governmentwould provide $25,000 toeach of the surf clubs overthe next five years.

“The funding will assistYanchep and Quinns-Mindarie to purchase newrescue equipment, first aidand medical supplies so theirlife savers can continue tosave lives,” Mr Porter said.

“Australians love to go to thebeach and it will be a key partof most families plans for thissummer.

“Our beautiful beaches are animportant attraction for localresidents and tourists alike.

“This new funding will ensureour life savers have theequipment they need to keeppeople safe and prevent aholiday from becoming atragedy.”

Each of Australia’s 311 SurfLife Saving Clubs will receivethe funding over five yearsfrom the AustralianGovernment’s $8 million BeachSafety Equipment Fund.

SLSA’s Coastal DrowningReport identified 121 coastal

drowning deaths in Australiain 2013.

“Each year, Australia’sdedicated life savers performabout 12,000 rescues and32,000 first aid treatments.The Beach Safety EquipmentFund provides support directlywhere it is needed most – tosupport the volunteers surflifesavers patrolling beaches,”Mr Porter said.

Mr Porter said that in additionto the $8 million for new andupgraded lifesaving and firstaid equipment, the AustralianGovernment is providing $2million for the BeachDrowning Black SpotReduction Program whichaims to reduce drownings atdangerous beaches andprovide public safetyprograms that highlightcoastal hazards such as ripcurrents and rock fishing.

These programmes are partof the Government’s $15million package to cutdrowning deaths across thenation.

It includes $4 million to assistthe Royal Life Saving Societyto prevent drownings in inlandwaterways and an existing $1million a year to produce,develop and distribute watersafety messages, DVDs andeducational material targetingmore than 1.5 millionAustralian children aged up tofour years.

“The educational materialdeveloped by former Olympicswimming coach LaurieLawrence delivers key watersafety messages toyoungsters in a fun andengaging way,” Mr Portersaid.

“They are being distributednationally to child carecentres, kindergartens andplay groups and are availableonline at kidsalive.com.au.”

New surf rescuersOver the festive breakYanchep Surf Life SavingClub president, JohnHeesters, congratulated thenewest Surf RescueCertificate holders: CodyHeesters, Kate Maliphant,Averil Willoughby andMadderson Walker. (Left toright in photo).

Members from the YanchepSurf Life Saving Club patrolthe every popular YanchepLagoon beach area everySunday throughout thesummer season.

Plans for the new surf clubfacilities seem to be in limbo,between the City of Wannerooand WA State Government.

The existing Yanchepfacilities have been describedas probably the worst inWestern Australia, but thecouncil and state governmentseem to be working to theirown agenda.

For such an important rolethis volunteer club performs,it would be expected that boththe council and stategovernment would ensurethey had all the properfacilities and equipment toperform the service theyprovide for free.

The importance of fruit andvegetables in your dietFor years you’ve beenhearing that it’s important toincrease your intake of fruitsand vegetables. But, do youknow why?

While there are so manyreasons to include thesenutritional powerhouses intoyour daily diet, starting withthe idea that they’re soaccessible and portable, hereare a few other reasons worthmentioning.

As a nation, we’reheavier than ever

The rise in obesity is at an alltime high and it’s largely theresult of being overfed andundernourished coupled witha sedentary lifestyle.

Instead of choosing lowcalorie, low fat and highquality foods, many of us areeating nutrient void, caloricallydense ‘sub-foods’ which areloaded with fat, sugar, caloriesand chemicals.

These foods do little to fueland support us while causingus to gain weight at rapidspeed. What’s the solution?

A whole foods, plant based,nutrient rich diet with qualityprotein sources as well.

Fruits and vegetablesalso protect your healthThese healthy foods containessential vitamins, minerals,and fibre that help protect youfrom chronic diseases, whichcan be painful, debilitatingand even fatal in some cases.

Fruits and vegetableshave been shown to helpprotect against heart disease,stroke, certain types ofcancer, gastrointestinalissues, high blood pressure,eye disease and more.

Boosts your immunesystem

Your immune system is likean internal army. When it’sstrong, it protects its borderagainst invasion. When it’sweak it’s as if the army is fastasleep.

A weakened immune systemincreases the incidence ofvirus and bacterial invasion,issues such as skin disorders,delayed wound healing, upperrespiratory infections, agingand chronic illness. Eatingmore fruits and vegetables aspart of a healthy diet is animportant key to help boostimmune health.

Fruits and vegetableskeep you fuller

for longer

The fibre coming from manyfruits and vegetables helps tofill us up without filling us out.Also, we want to see a platethat’s full and when it’s filledwith unhealthy choices, thecalories add up quickly.

Adding bulk to our plate in theform of a salad, cookedvegetables and more gives usthe satisfaction of havingmore and feeling satisfiedwithout the downside ofeating too much of foods that

don’t provide us with thenutrients we need.

Boost your confidenceHow? Empty calories comingfrom refined carbohydratesincrease our appetite anddesire for foods high in sugar.

For many of us, thesecravings are so strong we canfeel powerless as we spendyears, often decadesstruggling with binge,emotional and disorderedeating. This cycle is not onlyharmful to our health and ourwaistlines, but is damaging toour mental and emotionalhealth as well.

Part of a treatmentplan

Eating fruits and vegetablesas part of a healthy diet canbe part of an alternative andcomplementary treatmentagainst symptoms, illness,conditions and even disease.Imagine the benefits oftreatment coming from thevital nutrients within certainfruits and vegetables withoutthe harsh and painful sideeffects of certain medications!

More energyNothing gives you lastingenergy more than a healthydiet along with exercise and ahealthy lifestyle.

4GX mobile service across GinginLocal residents now have extended access toone of the world’s fastest mobile networks, withTelstra switching on 4GX in parts of Gingin,bringing extreme speeds and extra 4G coverageto local residents.

Gingin is part of the largest activation of 4GXservices across Australia, joining over 600 newtowns and suburbs that have been switched on.

Telstra area general manager, Guy Champion,said Gingin customers in the new coverageareas with compatible devices will be able toinstantly pick up the signal and enjoy the newnetwork features.

“The upgraded 4GX network provides improvedcapacity for Gingin’s agricultural growth. A morewidespread coverage network with consistentdata speeds means more efficient ways for localfarmers to do business.

“4GX is supercharging the Telstra MobileNetwork in the area and giving compatibledevices access to super fast mobile speeds asthey seamlessly transition to the new service. Butthis also has wider network benefits for Gingin4G customers without 4GX compatible devices,with traditional 4G services freed up to helpmanage the ever growing demand for data.”

4GX sets a new benchmark in mobile internetspeeds in Australia, allowing people withcompatible devices in 4GX areas to download,share, stream and connect faster than ever. Theworld-leading technology pushes typical mobiledownload speeds up to two to 100Mbps forcustomers with compatible devices, some of thefastest commercial mobile speeds in the world.

4GX is based on Telstra’s new 700MHzspectrum and delivers higher typical mobilespeeds on compatible devices, allowing moreAustralians to experience ultra-fast mobileinternet. It also uses sophisticated LTEAdvanced technology to bring together Telstra’s1800MHz and 700MHz 4G spectrum bands,where both are available, to supercharge mobileweb speeds even further on compatible devices.

To say 2014 was a ‘big year’ is probably anunderstatement; especially from Alkimos up thecoastal strip to Yanchep Two Rocks.

This region was regularly listed as one of thefastest growing regions across Australia, but notwithout its problems.

Sadly, for many residents’ there wasdissatisfaction at the City of Wanneroo and WAState Government who have failed to keep upwith the basic infrastructure demands of a fastgrowing community. One estate developerwarned residents not to speak to the media.

Yanchep Two Rocks remains the remotestsuburb in the remotest city in the world, whilegovernment authorities, at all levels, have madenumerous promises/commitments and deliveredon few.

Reviewing all the issues readers have raised withthe Sun City News through ‘letters to the editor’;Facebook, phone calls and online comments, theCity of Wanneroo council received over 50 percent of the comments.

These included: broken promises by the mayor;a seawall no one wanted; money wastedlowering the boardwalk, money wasted on anunwanted fire track; trying to charge juniors for achangeroom extension; local councillors; and, thelack of traffic management at the MarmionAvenue and Lagoon Drive’ intersection.

There were a number of firsts for the region:Peppa Pig and the local Business EXPO wasvery popular; as was the opening of a McDonaldstore at Yanchep.

Negotiations continued throughout the entire yearregarding the new sporting facilties to cater forcurrent demands - The council linked the buildingplan to approval of a ‘developer contribution fund’which taxes each new land buyer an additional

$7000 plus - The two new sporting oval andchanges rooms don’t appear any closer to beingstarted, 12 months on.

The Two Rocks recreational boat ramp closureriled the boating community - Originally closedfor six to eight weeks for repairs and upgrade, itwas closed for months denying boating accessto the waters off Two Rocks for the entire 2014summer fishing and cray season.

In March 2014, the City of Wanneroo made thedecision to close the Dewars ‘Durrs’ track,stating: “With a growing local population and anincreasing numbers of families now using thesebeaches for swimming, four wheel driving cansimply not continue.”

Social media reaction and petitions caused theCity of Wanneroo to reconsider their originaldecision, eventually re-opening the track.

With the onset of Autumn strong coastal windscaused more erosion worries at Seabird. TheShire of Gingin looked at a number of solutions,but any remedial work will be very costly.

During April and May 2014, a variety of issuesconcerned the local community - idleness anddereliction of Lindsay Homestead,disappearance of the Prickle, boat ramp issuesdragging on and no noticeable progress with thesporting fields project.

The Gingin community hosted their inauguraltriathlon with over 155 competitors involved.

Next came one of the biggest raids ever seen inWestern Australia - Project TRICORD andOperation POLO saw 550 law enforcementofficers raid a number of rural properties inCarabooda. The investigations and court actionsare continuing.

In late May 2014, the City of Wanneroo startedthe lowering of the Yanchep Boardwalk by about

ne metre at a cost of around $300,000. Theres still mixed feelings in the community - From awaste of $300,000 to it should be removed.

n late June 2014, the Yanchep Beach PrimarySchool was officially opened by the WA Ministeror Education, Peter Collier.

n July, the inaugural Yanchep Business EXPOwas held at Yanchep Central Shopping Centrewith Peppa Pig making a special appearance.

Both the City of Wanneroo and Shire of Ginginrought down their annual budgets, hiking propertyates between 4.2 per cent to seven per cent.

Work on Stage 2 of the Yanchep Lagoon seawallausing loss of access to the lagoon beach. Theagoon Cafe was dramatically affected by the

massive loss of business - In late December014, the City of Wanneroo entered into a ‘behindlosed door’ deal with the business owner.

n August, the City of Wanneroo came underttacked, yet again, in relation to the 15 year delay,hen refusal, then wanting junior sporting clubs toay for extensions to the Oldham Reservehangerooms - After extensive local communityutcry and many meetings including three differentouncil meetings, the council finally agreed to buildhe small extension, but stated it wouldn’t be builtntil the end of 2015 at the earliest.

n late August, the WA State GovernmentTransport Minister, Dean Nalder, announced thathe rail to Yanchep had been put on hold. Thisould mean the rail line to Yanchep will not beginntil 2022 - This announcement displeased many

ocal residents and property developers.

September saw Yanchep Redhawks, Lancelin-edge Pt Pirates and Gingin Eagles reserves winheir competition league premiership. McDonaldYanchep was officially opened on Saturday 28September - AFL Grand Final day.

October saw Capricorn Village Joint Ventureannounced the first release of land and homepackages at the Atlantis Beach development atTwo Rocks.

During October, after a number of car accidents atthe Marmion Avenue and Lagoon Driveintersection, pressure from the community was puton the council to instal traffic lights - Eventually thecouncil agreed, but didn’t provide a schedule forwhen they will be constructed.

This intersection was rated the third worst in Perthmetro area, by the RAC 2014 Risky Roads survey.

November 2014, saw the long time leaseagreement between the Department of Transportand Yanchep Sun City Pty Ltd (YSC) come to anend - YSC had managed the marina since theend of the Alan Bond America’s Cup challenge inthe 1980s.

December saw the start of the fire and wildweather season - A tornado hit in the Shire ofGingin, while a fire raged through rural ginginnear Sovereign Hill and Redfield Estates.

Yanchep police were kept busy throughout theyear, seizing numerous ‘hooning’ cars, nabbingdrink-drivers and speedsters. They also had todeal with numerous drug raids, domestic violenceissues and general law and order issues.

The Sun City News sincerely thanks all thepeople who contributed, phoned or emailed tips,and helped out in various ways - Looking forwardto 2015 and beyond, we continue to welcomeyour tips, contributions and photos.

We feel it is this special relationship with the localcommunity that continues to make the Sun CityNews the region’s most popular local newspaper.

How the unemployed ‘disappear’ and why it mattersWith monthly unemploymentfigures due out this week, theusual attention will be paid tofluctuations up and down.

In last year’s Mid Year Economicand Fiscal Outlook Treasurer JoeHockey predicted thatunemployment could reach 6.5per cent, which is 0.25 per centhigher than was predicted in thefederal budget.

How the unemployment figure isactually calculated became a hotmedia topic when the AustralianBureau of Statistics was forced tosubstantially revise its seasonallyadjusted labour force figures forJuly and August.

The ABS cited difficulty withseasonally adjusting theunemployment figure, whichmeant only the raw figure wasused. These difficulties wereattributed to a variety of factorsand are now considered to beresolved.

However these conversationsgloss over how the official figureof unemployment underestimatesthe ‘real’ figure of unemployment.

For those of us who areinterested in how unemploymentcontributes to the way weexperience ourselves in theworld, who is excluded from thesefigures is just as important as whois included.

The discouragedSo who is missing from this keydata set that we have been

hearing a lot about recently? Toanswer this we need to look atdefinition of ‘unemployment’ moreclosely.

The International LabourO r g a n i s a t i o nstates a person isunemployed ifthey have workedless than onehour, have beenactively looking forwork during thereference week,and could start ajob in the weekfollowing.

Recently, the ABSupdated theLabour ForceSurvey to align‘active steps’ ofjob seeking with the ILOdefinition.

Now a person is considered to beactively looking for work if they, atbare minimum, call an employerto ask about a job position asopposed to reading through a jobnotice board or applying forCentrelink payments.

Here we can see that a personwho has given up on the jobsearch, or feels so disheartenedby the process that they looked atjobs on a notice board but did notmake contact with any employer,are not considered to beunemployed and therefore aremissing from unemploymentfigures.

Economists refer to this cohort ofunemployed as the ‘discouraged’.

We consider this term to be aeuphemism because when weturn to psychological and

sociological studies that examinethe experience of unemploymentwe find paper after paper thatdiscusses the detrimentalpsychological impact thatunemployment has on a person.

Such research documents thisdistress in terms of anxiety,stress, depression, suicide andlower self-esteem - that is, manypeople can be said to beexcluded from the unemployedcount because of thepsychological impact ofunemployment upon them.

The ‘active subject’What do we do about unemploy-ment, then, if it is so devastatingto people’s well-being?

‘Activation’ is one solutionfavoured by current governmentfigures for the ‘problem ofunemployment’ in Australia andhas been for some time now.

Activation is notjust about activejob seeking oractively improvingone’s skill base(increasing skillsvia training etc), itis also aboutactively workingon oneself toimprove one’s ‘jobreadiness’ interms of self-esteem, resilienceand motivation.

From thisperspective any

programs to improvepsychological factors like ‘self-esteem’ are to be encouraged.

The problem of theunemployed is (not)

the unemployedThe problem with these programsof reformation is that they onlycontribute to constructing theproblem of unemployment as theproblem of the unemployedindividual themselves, runningthe risk of becoming a form ofvictim-blaming which patho-logises the unemployed andmakes political discussionsaround the structure ofemployment, unemployment andthe labour market even less likely.

In discussions aboutunemployment and welfareprograms it is rarely mentionedthat mass unemployment isrequired by our socio-politicalregime, a contemporary form ofneoliberal capitalism.

The Non-Accelerating InflationRate of Unemployment is a termused by economists andpoliticians to refer to the level ofunemployment, between 4 percent and 6 per cent, considerednecessary to prevent inflationtaking off.

We need to also consider thatthere just aren’t enough jobs to goaround.

Figures in August 2014, forexample, showed there wereapproximately 147,200 jobvacancies though unemploymenttotalled 735,500 people.

Clearly unemployment can not be‘solved’ by unemployed peopletaking non-existent jobs and it isunreasonable to blameunemployed individuals forunemployment when there is nopaid work.

If our politico-economic systemneeds unemployment, the activelabour market vitriol poured uponthe unemployed is unjust as wellas ineffective.

If you plan on living in your homefor a long time, you need to buywith an eye to the future.

In today’s real estate market,people are moving homes lessfrequently, which means youneed to think ahead. When you'relooking to buy a new home, youmight be drawn to features thatappeal to your current lifestyle,but will they be practical in fiveyears?

What should you be thinking about?

Nowadays, buying a home is along term investment you’re likelyto retain for a long time.

If you’re on the hunt for a home,have a think about the kind ofplans you have for the future. Doyou have children? If not, do youplan to have them? Whether ornot you decide to have childrenwill have a big impact on the typeof home you buy, the layout of thehome you buy and the amount ofspace you require.

If you do already have children,their age and whether you plan onexpanding your family are factorsto consider.

It's also imperative you considerlocation. If you think it’s unlikelyyou’ll be moving again over thenext five to 10 years, then fewdecisions you make about thehome you're buying will be asimportant as where you buy.

Which features havethe most impact?

The layout and features withinyour home are imperative to yourfuture happiness and comfort.

Things to ask yourself are:

n Do you want an open-plancentral living area or would youprefer the areas separated?

n How do these indoor spacesconnect to your outdoor area?

n What kind of outdoor area yourequire?

n Do you need lots of space forthe kids to play?

n Do you want room to add in apool?

n Is there space to entertain?n Do you want your kitchen toflow into your outdoor zone?

The number of bedrooms youhave and their placement are alsoimportant. If you plan onexpanding your family, you might

want to buy a home with enoughbedrooms to accommodate this.

If you have very young children,the bedroom being close to themaster bedroom might be animportant factor. Whereas if youhad older kids, separation betweenthe master and minor bedrooms islikely to appeal to you.

If you regularly have guests stay,it's also worth thinking about howa guest bedroom would and couldfactor into your plans. Thenumber of bathrooms you requireand how they connect andservice the master and minorbedrooms will also be influencedby your plans for the future.

Don't buy outside your means

As important as it is to consideryour long term plans when buyinga home, it's also equally important

that you don't purchase a homesignificantly outside your budgetjust to satisfy potential futurerequirements.

Buy within your means so youcan live comfortably, but keep aneye to the future. You may not beable to achieve all of yourpotential future requirements, butyou can likely achieve enough sothat your home grows with you.

Consider location, style and size

When choosing your new home,three key factors to consider arelocation, style and size.

These three elements havesignificant impact upon your comfortand satisfaction levels, as well asthe market value of your home.

LocationLocation is imperative to the re-sale value of your home, so makesure you think ahead and look forareas that will serve you well inthe future.

When deciding on a location, yourlocal real estate agents knowareas extremely well and are alsoaware of any proposed changesthat are likely to affect your assetin the future.

On a personal level, you shouldconsider factors like: distancefrom your place of work; nearbyeducational facilities; availabilityof recreational facilities; the local

town-planning scheme; and thedevelopment potential of the land.

Style and sizeWhen determining the style andsize of your home, the top fivequestions to consider beforemaking a decision are:

n What are your garage orcarport requirements?

n Do you want an extensivegarden or low maintenancesurrounds?

nWhat are your expectations foryour family living areas?

n Do you want indoor andoutdoor entertaining areas?

n Does the home have thecapacity to extend?

Prior to submitting an offer youshould make your own enquiriesto satisfy yourself on thesuitability of the property.

You may wish to obtain a copy ofthe Certificate of Title, which willinform you of any encumbrancesthat may affect your use of theland or strata entitlement.

It's also a good idea to speak withthe seller's agent who can informyou of any issues you should beaware of.

Speak to your agent about thekinds of home that would be mostsuitable for your long-termaspirations.
