The weather was relatively kind which ensured the lawns at the foreshore around the stage were packed for our of ficial ceremony and the free entertainment and fun events.

To see so many families enjoying themselves proved the small organising committee is right on the mark by putting together a program that focuses on families, particularly young children. It was also tremendous seeing so many young children, older teenagers and even adults enjoying the hip hop and freestyle performers. On behalf of Council I thank the Whyalla community for their continuing and overwhelming support that they showed.

Their efforts are to be commended. Aussie, Aussie, Aussie! In fact, I doubt that we will see another such event for a long, long time — if ever. If you are into your popular band groups music, then this will be something not to miss.

If previous years are anything to go by there will be plenty of free entertainment and other activities for everyone to enjoy. I wish organisers of the three events and the scores of volunteers involved, best wishes for a very successful Easter. This can not be done without community involvement and input.

New strategic plan will target needs of changing times THE future sustainability of the City of Whyalla — carefully balancing community needs through the provision of both essential and desirable services — will be a major focus when Council begins work on developing a new year strategic plan.

To be finalised by the end of this year, the new plan will replace the existing Whyalla Community Plan: Whyalla Towards Vision, which was adopted in In a report to Council, Mr Burfitt said a new strategic plan, in association with the long-term financial plan, would form the most important corporate document clearly demonstrating the way forward for Council deliberations of community priorities and projects.

It needed to reflect commitments to achievable projects within designated timeframes. Any departure from the strategic direction should not occur unless the plan is updated and reflective of changed circumstances. Projects had been instigated and commitments made that were not reflected within the plan and, therefore, financial outcomes had been totally different to those that were envisaged within the adopted plan. The process ahead! The final document will meet the requirement of the Local Gov ernment Act and achieve compliance with any legislative instruction.

Located in Coolibah Court, stage one of Coolibah Reserve has just been completed and is a result of consultation with nearby residents. It is expected that further landscaping will be undertaken in future budgets. However, the initial playground will of fer children a range of challenges, and hopefully enjoyment, on the various pieces of installed equipment. Next to the main facility is a mini basketball court and sheltered seating ideal for parents watching their children.

Originally from Port Pirie, Dian Stewart moved to Whyalla with her husband Rob for an expected 10 months in and 40 years later is still enjoying life in Whyalla. Dian looked after hundreds of children during her time at the centre including fellow child care worker and teammate Jo, who she cared for as a then four-year-old. This was a genuine supercell outbreak. The La Nina year again has led to some very potent setups in the southern states of Australia, Victoria, South Australia and parts of Western Australia - areas that we normally joke about as having no real weather at this time of year other than dust storms and F days.

My own area about 2 hours south of Sydney is having its quietest storm season on record. Every setup has been plagued by upper level moisture - cloudfests as we aussie chasers call them. J Tyler EF3. Clearly, our friends in Australia have some kind of secret to making auto glass a lot stronger than we have here in the states!

After all THAT hail in the video, that car had not lost any windows?!?! But the blackout has impacted everyone. It is a flashpoint which has elevated to a much higher level, the existing grumbles about high household electricity prices, and vocal business sector criticisms about the handicap from high power prices generally and the impost to a flagging economy.

A sharp price spike in electricity prices in July in South Australia had already sharpened the anger. SA Liberal leader Steven Marshall senses this is a game-changer which has clearly brought home to the public the real impact of poor planning and too much focus on renewable energy without in-built security. There were heart-wrenching tales from 12 patients at the private Flinders Fertility clinic located inside the Flinders Medical Centre. They were were told their frozen embryos had to be destroyed after a back-up power generator stopped working an hour into the blackout — an event which reinforced the human side of the disaster.

One company left untouched by the crisis was Coopers Brewery, the largest Australian-owned brewer and a firm with about 5 per cent of Australia's national beer market. In conjunction with energy retailer AGL, it built a 4. It usually feeds excess power in to the state's electricity grid, with about 40 per cent kept for the Coopers plant. But the gas-fired co-generation plant — which Dr Cooper explains is a bit like a jet engine with a power pack — automatically flicked into fully supplying the Coopers plant during the blackout.

Dr Cooper and his top executives had energy security on their minds more than 13 years ago when they were planning the co-generation plant. Coopers had long wanted to take matters into their own hands. Dr Cooper told AFR Weekend that it had stemmed from power outages at the historic Leabrook site in eastern Adelaide where the year-old company had previously been based. Clearing out black sludge from brewing infrastructure if the equipment stopped was costly and annoying.

When the business moved to the new site, being energy self-sufficient was high on the agenda. While production had been seamless this week at Coopers as the state floundered with a widespread blackout which also stopped production at OZ Minerals' Prominent Hill copper mine in northern SA and brought major frustration for business owners and households, Dr Cooper is concerned about the damage to South Australia's reputation as a place to do business.
