  • Nano-Stern-The-Story-Biography

    Nano-Stern-The-Story-Biography

    The Story Nano Stern’s path as an artist follows richly crafted song lines laid by his family and his Chilean musical ancestry, and unites those with a sound utterly fresh and relevant. The confluence of recent student and environmental political events in his home country Chile and Nano’s rise as an articulate writer and performer have, much to his chagrin, positioned him as the voice of a newly politicized Chilean generation. The grandson of Jewish refugees fleeing persecution, Nano’s childhood was painted vivid by not only his own family’s musicianship but by the powerful legacy of the Nueva Canción movement lead by Chilean musical activists during Pinochet’s dictatorship a generation before. Legends like Inti‐Illimani and Victor Jara‐ who suffered exile and even death during these troubling times‐ continue to inspire Nano’s breadth of sound and emotion. “I am extremely respectful of the tradition,” explains Stern, “It is an enormous gift we received from the people of the past.” When only fifteen, Nano joined popular Chilean underground band, Mattoral, and thus was initiated into the fresh, new sounds and socio‐political pulse of the South American rock/punk scene. The thick rock‐energy of Mattoral, his classical and jazz training, and the powerful influence of traditional, Chilean revolutionary music make for something purely Nano. What has emerged is a powerhouse artist, brilliantly layering indigenous, African, and European elements into a sound all his own, and humbly bringing audiences to tears, to their feet, and to reverie with a singular kind of emotion and soulfulness unlike any other South American artist performing today.

    Nowra CBD Revitalisation Strategy Committee 28 July 2016 - Item 1 Attachment “A” Extract, Illawarra-Shoalhaven Regional Plan ACTION 1.3.1 Renew and revitalise Nowra Centre by coordinating State agency input into precinct planning and reviewing capacity for expanded health-related uses Nowra Centre is the business, retail and services hub of the Shoalhaven. It has retail and commercial offerings, civic and government services catering for the local community, and tourism functions. The Nowra Centre supports 9,200 jobs, concentrated in health care (2,600 jobs), retail (1,650) and public administration (1,100). Major employers include Shoalhaven City Council and the Shoalhaven District Memorial Hospital. Planning for the growth of the health care sector in Nowra will help to diversify and strengthen the Centre. Shoalhaven City Council is already working to renew and revitalise the Centre to encourage new business opportunities through the: • CBD Urban Design Masterplan; • Nowra CBD height and floor space ratio planning controls; and • Nowra CBD Revitalisation Strategy. The priorities are to increase public transport use, better integrate walkways and cycleways, improve pedestrian connections across the highway, and better integrate recreational uses around the Shoalhaven River and the commercial activity in the Centre. As Nowra Centre grows it will be important to coordinate local and State infrastructure. The NSW Government will: • coordinate State agency input into precinct planning activities; and • identify Shoalhaven District Memorial Hospital’s capacity for growth, and consider opportunities to accommodate future expansion. Nowra CBD Revitalisation Strategy Committee 28 July 2016 - Item 1 Attachment “B” Nowra CBD Revitalisation National Stronger Regions, Round 3, Grant Application - Overview The project will address a number of social issues and support economic opportunities through a program of infrastructure and assets renewal to improve the amenity, function and long term future of the Nowra CBD.

    Submission No 420 INQUIRY INTO THE MUSIC AND ARTS ECONOMY IN NEW SOUTH WALES Organisation: Illawarra Folk Festival Date Received: 2 July 2018 Legislative Council The Music and Arts Economy in NSW Introducing the Illawarra Folk Club, presenters of Folk Music in the Illawarra The Illawarra Folk Club Inc was established in 1979 as a not for profit organisation and has over this time run fortnightly Folk Music concerts in central Wollongong and throughout the Illawarra. We have run 33 annual Folk Festivals since 1986, initially at Jamberoo which we outgrew. The current version of the Illawarra Folk Festival attracts an aggregate 10,000 people with up to 12 stages over 4 days. It runs in January every year at the Bulli Raceway GBOTA site, the adjoining Bulli Showground and the Bulli Grevillia Park. This Festival attracts about 1500 on site campers and 400 volunteers giving a total of 5,000 hours of free help. The event puts $1.5 million into the local economy. We believe that this festival is the largest volunteer run festival in Australia In addition to the Illawarra Folk Festival we ran for a number of years a small one day festival on the Jamberoo to Robertson Road and since 2012 we also have run the smaller Folk by the Sea Festival at the Kiama Showground and Church Point precinct of Kiama. This event attracts 2,000 people over the 3 days including about 150 campers. Both events include a festival licensed bar. Both our festivals are wrist band entry only, for a day or for the entire festival.

RVN‐2 refers to the broadcast license call sign of the station, “2” being the channel number of the frequency. However, RVN‐2 was also the name and reference attributed to the station and the channel for many decades amongst viewers, and up to today, those who experienced RVN‐2 sometimes still refer to the channel as that. RVN‐2 was more than just a television service. Its identity on air and its Kooringal Studio facility became local institutions equivalent to that of a landmark. The station was a major local industry, at one time employing 150 local people in various roles from production to technical to clerical, as well as providing an introduction and training ground for young television employees.

  • WIN TV Breached for Vaccination Story

    WIN TV Breached for Vaccination Story

    WIN TV breached for vaccination story ACMA media release 41/2013 – 7 June WIN Television NSW Pty Ltd (WIN TV) breached two provisions of the Commercial Television Industry Code of Practice in a news report on WIN News Illawarra about measles vaccination that misled its audience. The report was broadcast on 16 August 2012 and concerned an outbreak of measles in south-western Sydney. Included in the story was the following unqualified statement made by a non-expert: ‘All vaccinations, in the medical literature, have been linked with the possibility of causing autism...’ The Australian Communications and Media Authority found that by broadcasting that statement and by conveying a higher level of controversy and uncertainty about immunisation than was justified by the facts, WIN TV had failed to broadcast factual material accurately. ‘The story would have misled an ordinary viewer about the level of risk of vaccinating children,’ said ACMA Chairman, Chris Chapman. The ACMA also found that WIN TV did not make reasonable efforts to correct the significant error of fact. ‘While the ACMA has no power to direct the making of an on-air corrective statement, given the circumstances of this case and the important public health issues involved, the ACMA recommended to WIN TV that it make an on-air statement concerning the ACMA’s findings,’ added Mr Chapman. The licensee has, however, declined to take this opportunity to clarify on air this important public health issue, one which no doubt remains of ongoing concern to its audience and the wider Australian public. The licensee offered to provide a link on its website to the ACMA’s finding.

Soon the South Coast and West Camden Co-op opened its own selling floors in Sussex Street, Sydney. Illawarra and Shoalhaven farmers immediately withdrew their consignments from ‘the system’ and sent their produce instead to the fledgling co-operative. On Mondays and Thursdays steamers arrived from Wollongong, Kiama and Shoalhaven. Carrier after carrier had to be engaged to convey the butter, bacon and cheese sent from the South Coast to the Co-op’s floor while many agents had nothing else to do but stand outside their doors and watch their business disappear, their carts returned empty from the wharf. The oC -op finished business on the evening of its opening day with all its consignments sold at a very good price.
