GAMECHANGERStadium. The Queensland Government haspledged $100 million for Townsville’s super-stadium project.
Townsville Enterprise chief executive Patri-cia O’Callaghan said the NSW move shouldconvince the Government to increase funding.
“We have made it clear to the Premier and allof the local state MPs that we don’t think the
funding commitment of $100 million is enoughand that our community will continue to put se-rious pressure on the state to find further fund-ing in partnership with the Federal Governmentto deliver the fully integrated stadium and en-tertainment centre,” she said.
“We expect the Prime Minister will commithis Government’s fair share to this project but
this does not mean that the state is off the hook.“We won’t be short-changed in ensuring that
this community is provided with an integratedstadium and entertainment centre that is of na-tional and international standard.”
Mayor Jenny Hill said she didn’t care wherethe funding for the CBD stadium came from.

ONE FINALTIME NORTH Queensland Cowboys great
Matt Bowen is one of three retiring
legends stepping out on the field for
the last time in Auckland today.Bowen, 33, Canberra Raiders leg-
end Jason Croker, 42, and the Sydney
Roosters’ Braith Anasta, 34, will suit-
up for one final time with the clubs the
famous trio played a combined 938
first-grade games with. Each have

stop on his own incredible career with
the Cowboys, following a stint with
Wigan in the British Super League,
began via a series of text messages
from North Queensland co-captain

their filthy presence has taken over areas of Townsville and Charters Towers yet this growing plague continues unabated. Remember when the Palmetum was a popular weekend spot for picnics and wedding photos? Not now, who would risk black liquid excrement landing on the bride, and my heart aches for the elderly residents of the Good Shepherd nursing home located next door to the overpowering stench. Calls for bat culls are opposed by animal activists yet as an animal lover I’d gladly endorse a cull of this
vile vermin, as I had no problem stalking each and every cane toad near my fish pond, and after the sudden grab with a plastic bag about 50 of the buggers met their maker in my freezer, my yard is now toad-free. But if you are really worried aboutanimal welfare, do you know how our beef is slaughtered these days? All major supermarket meat except pork is now Halal certified. Australian national standards require pre-slaughter stunning, but allows Halal slaughter to use reversible stunning,
where the animal regains conscious-ness before it bleeds out. Yes, really. If we care about animal welfare, where’s the welfare in that? We protect disease-ridden bats, but for meat that we put on our tables, let’s make its last moment on earth one of pure, unadulterated terror. Shouldn’t we use the most humanemethods available to ensure death to any creature is as swift and painless as possible? Cull or kill, just don’t condone cruelty.

ANIMAL CRACKERSTO CULL or not to cull? It seemsto depend on whether we con-sider an animal threat, pest or pet.With crocs, specimens like the 50-year-old reptilian “baby boomer” wallowing off The Strand should always be rehomed, after all, this old boy was in his own habitat for over five decades before it was decided he was too great a risk to his uninvited guests. Our response was a humane approach, but there are calls for culls in the Northern Territory where saltwater populations have soared to one crocodile for every two residents. Experts say removal and relocation is best, and that unless you get rid of every croc, there will always be a risk. But why is it that some creatures areconsidered a menace to society, while risks from others are ignored? Time was of the essence after wild brumbies wandered on to the Bruce Highway causing a tragic road fatality. After a second death, the ironically titled Action Group gave sharpshooters the green light to cull the herd, and although it would have been great to see these horses rounded up and tamed, the problem hasn’t resurfaced. Now the wild pigs rampaging in ourregion are in the spotlight, but an offer from bowhunters to help cull them has caused a flurry of feedback with the method of the final kill questioned. Pig hunters regularly use dogs to bring the pigs down by their ears so they can be finished off with a knife, but dogs can get badly mauled during this process. Bowhunters offer stealthy marksman-ship skills and use a long-handled knife to finish if required – no dogs. I know which I’d rather endorse. Then there’s the bats. Hideous, foul-smelling, disease-spreading creatures,
VILE VERMIN: Filthy bats have taken over areas of Townsville and Charters Towers. Surely it’s time for a cull.
Remember when the Palmetum was a popular weekend spot for picnics and wedding photos? Well, not any more ...
KATTER’S Australian Party will demand a tougher crackdown on coward punches when it re-enters negotiations with the State Government over lockout laws. Katter MP Shane Knuth warned the Government had hurt its chances of passing its lockout laws through the State Parliament after Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk refused to push back debate. She said the laws were too important to wait.
A MAN who fell asleep behind the wheel while ordering at a McDonald’s drive-through was one of 10 Northern Territory motorists who have been caught drink-driving by police. The man ordered at a Darwin drive-through on Thursday and pulled over into the waiting bay where he fell asleep, before being woken by police and breath-tested. He returned a blood-alcohol level of 0.196, almost four times the legal limit.
THE boss of the highly criticised NBN rollout has asked for trust as he vows to have eight million homes and businesses connected to high-speed broadband by 2020. NBN Co chief executive Bill Morrow said roughly half the nation’s homes and businesses were now either in the design stage, under construction or ready for service. “This is such a complex undertaking that has never been done before anywhere,’’ he said.

ONE FINALTIME NORTH Queensland Cowboys great
Matt Bowen is one of three retiring
legends stepping out on the field for
the last time in Auckland today.Bowen, 33, Canberra Raiders leg-
end Jason Croker, 42, and the Sydney
Roosters’ Braith Anasta, 34, will suit-
up for one final time with the clubs the
famous trio played a combined 938
first-grade games with. Each have
their own reason for being at Eden

stop on his own incredible career with
the Cowboys, following a stint with
Wigan in the British Super League,
began via a series of text messages
from North Queensland co-captain

their filthy presence has taken over areas of Townsville and Charters Towers yet this growing plague continues unabated. Remember when the Palmetum was a popular weekend spot for picnics and wedding photos? Not now, who would risk black liquid excrement landing on the bride, and my heart aches for the elderly residents of the Good Shepherd nursing home located next door to the overpowering stench. Calls for bat culls are opposed by animal activists yet as an animal lover I’d gladly endorse a cull of this
vile vermin, as I had no problem stalking each and every cane toad near my fish pond, and after the sudden grab with a plastic bag about 50 of the buggers met their maker in my freezer, my yard is now toad-free. But if you are really worried aboutanimal welfare, do you know how our beef is slaughtered these days? All major supermarket meat except pork is now Halal certified. Australian national standards require pre-slaughter stunning, but allows Halal slaughter to use reversible stunning,
where the animal regains conscious-ness before it bleeds out. Yes, really. If we care about animal welfare, where’s the welfare in that? We protect disease-ridden bats, but for meat that we put on our tables, let’s make its last moment on earth one of pure, unadulterated terror. Shouldn’t we use the most humanemethods available to ensure death to any creature is as swift and painless as possible? Cull or kill, just don’t condone cruelty.
Shari Tagliabueemail [email protected] Shari on Twitter at www.twitter.com/sharitags
ANIMAL CRACKERSTO CULL or not to cull? It seemsto depend on whether we con-sider an animal threat, pest or pet.With crocs, specimens like the 50-year-old reptilian “baby boomer” wallowing off The Strand should always be rehomed, after all, this old boy was in his own habitat for over five decades before it was decided he was too great a risk to his uninvited guests. Our response was a humane approach, but there are calls for culls in the Northern Territory where saltwater populations have soared to one crocodile for every two residents. Experts say removal and relocation is best, and that unless you get rid of every croc, there will always be a risk. But why is it that some creatures areconsidered a menace to society, while risks from others are ignored? Time was of the essence after wild brumbies wandered on to the Bruce Highway causing a tragic road fatality. After a second death, the ironically titled Action Group gave sharpshooters the green light to cull the herd, and although it would have been great to see these horses rounded up and tamed, the problem hasn’t resurfaced. Now the wild pigs rampaging in ourregion are in the spotlight, but an offer from bowhunters to help cull them has caused a flurry of feedback with the method of the final kill questioned. Pig hunters regularly use dogs to bring the pigs down by their ears so they can be finished off with a knife, but dogs can get badly mauled during this process. Bowhunters offer stealthy marksman-ship skills and use a long-handled knife to finish if required – no dogs. I know which I’d rather endorse. Then there’s the bats. Hideous, foul-smelling, disease-spreading creatures,
VILE VERMIN: Filthy bats have taken over areas of Townsville and Charters Towers. Surely it’s time for a cull.
Remember when the Palmetum was a popular weekend spot for picnics and wedding photos? Well, not any more ...
KATTER’S Australian Party will demand a tougher crackdown on coward punches when it re-enters negotiations with the State Government over lockout laws. Katter MP Shane Knuth warned the Government had hurt its chances of passing its lockout laws through the State Parliament after Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk refused to push back debate. She said the laws were too important to wait.
A MAN who fell asleep behind the wheel while ordering at a McDonald’s drive-through was one of 10 Northern Territory motorists who have been caught drink-driving by police. The man ordered at a Darwin drive-through on Thursday and pulled over into the waiting bay where he fell asleep, before being woken by police and breath-tested. He returned a blood-alcohol level of 0.196, almost four times the legal limit.
THE boss of the highly criticised NBN rollout has asked for trust as he vows to have eight million homes and businesses connected to high-speed broadband by 2020. NBN Co chief executive Bill Morrow said roughly half the nation’s homes and businesses were now either in the design stage, under construction or ready for service. “This is such a complex undertaking that has never been done before anywhere,’’ he said.

A TOWNSVILLE police officer who was dragged for 200m hanging out of a moving car has told of the moment his attacker looked him straight in the eye before grabbing him and accelerating.
Former soldier Joshua James Shooter,25, was yesterday jailed for 4½ years – suspended after 15 months – over the attack, which happened on Flinders St on January 4, 2014.
Sen-Constable Craig McSwan spoke tothe Bulletin after Shooter was sentenced yesterday, sharing details of the attack, which left him with lifelong injuries.
“He grabbed hold of me and actually
looked at me and started smashing me in the face,” he said.
“I put my hand on his shoulder and said ‘stop’ and he’s grabbed my hand, taken off and pulled me into the car.
“There was none of the normal indicators beforehand – even when he was changing gears there was no angst, no rapidness to his movements.”

TURNBULL HEADS NORTH BUT NOT BEARING GIFTSPRIME Minister Malcolm Turnbull isset to roll in to Townsville next weekas part of a regional tour, but a firmfunding commitment to a new CBDstadium is unlikely to be announced.
It is understood the stadiumdoes not satisfy the necess-
ary requirements to be funded underthe Coalition’s $5 billion NorthernAustralia Infrastructure Facility.
The Bulletin understands HerbertMP Ewen Jones is lobbying for a res-olution on the project and may try tofind another funding stream for it.
It is understood Mr Turnbull,left, will be the guest of honour at a$1500-a-head fundraiser being held
on Monday night at the home of con-struction identity Adrian Gabrielli, aprominent local supporter.
Given the fallout of QueenslandNickel Industries going into adminis-tration last month and mass job lossesin the mining sector, there are highhopes the prime minister will bring apositive announcement in tow.
It is understood the Government
fears funding the stadium projectwould set a precedent that could leadto calls of bias from other regions.
There may be scope for fundingunder urban renewal and regener-ation works, but a decision could takesome time. The stadium has been highon Townsville’s infrastructure wishlist for the best part of a decade.

withcareersTHERE are many peopleemployed as salespeople inAustralia but top talent is inshort supply.
People who are self-aware,easily build rapport, like tolisten and can handle theknock-backs are in highdemand – and do not alwaysneed university qualifications.
A five-year study of 22,000salespeople by businessconsultants SG Partnersreveals 74 per cent lack skills inbuilding rapport, 87 per cent donot know how to effectivelyask questions, and 95 per centtalk too much.
SG Partners managingdirector Michael Lang says hiscompany screens about 1000salespeople a year but onlyabout 250 of those are worthrecruiting.
“The average salespersonout there likes to talk morethan listen, they like to tell
people how great they are andto project their beliefs on toothers,” he says.
“Great salespeople reallywant to find out more aboutthe person in front of them –what makes them tick, howthey make decisions, how toinspire them, how to be thetrusted adviser, how todemonstrate they care.
“It’s one of the hardest jobsin any organisation becauseyou are being paid to go outand get rejected so you’ve gotto be comfortable with that.
“(Ask yourself) ‘do I sufferfrom rejection?’. If so, eitherchange or you shouldn’t getinto selling.”
There are about 1.08 millionsales workers across Australia,including 87,700 salesrepresentatives, according theAustralia Bureau of Statistics.

Sold on need for ‘soft skills’are goals-focused, resilient,able to think strategically, andare comfortable to meetcustomers away from theoffice rather than sittingbehind a computer.
He says they are very hardto find.
“If you can find a technicalperson with the emotionalintelligence to match, that’ssensational,” Mr Avey says.

Matt Bowen is one of three retiring
legends stepping out on the field for
the last time in Auckland today.Bowen, 33, Canberra Raiders leg-
end Jason Croker, 42, and the Sydney

up for one final time with the clubs the
famous trio played a combined 938

stop on his own incredible career with
the Cowboys, following a stint with

their filthy presence has taken over areas of Townsville and Charters Towers yet this growing plague continues unabated. Remember when the Palmetum was a popular weekend spot for picnics and wedding photos? Not now, who would risk black liquid excrement landing on the bride, and my heart aches for the elderly residents of the Good Shepherd nursing home located next door to the overpowering stench. Calls for bat culls are opposed by animal activists yet as an animal lover I’d gladly endorse a cull of this
vile vermin, as I had no problem stalking each and every cane toad near my fish pond, and after the sudden grab with a plastic bag about 50 of the buggers met their maker in my freezer, my yard is now toad-free. But if you are really worried aboutanimal welfare, do you know how our beef is slaughtered these days? All major supermarket meat except pork is now Halal certified. Australian national standards require pre-slaughter stunning, but allows Halal slaughter to use reversible stunning,
where the animal regains conscious-ness before it bleeds out. Yes, really. If we care about animal welfare, where’s the welfare in that? We protect disease-ridden bats, but for meat that we put on our tables, let’s make its last moment on earth one of pure, unadulterated terror. Shouldn’t we use the most humanemethods available to ensure death to any creature is as swift and painless as possible? Cull or kill, just don’t condone cruelty.
Shari Tagliabueemail [email protected] Shari on Twitter at www.twitter.com/sharitags
ANIMAL CRACKERSTO CULL or not to cull? It seemsto depend on whether we con-sider an animal threat, pest or pet.With crocs, specimens like the 50-year-old reptilian “baby boomer” wallowing off The Strand should always be rehomed, after all, this old boy was in his own habitat for over five decades before it was decided he was too great a risk to his uninvited guests. Our response was a humane approach, but there are calls for culls in the Northern Territory where saltwater populations have soared to one crocodile for every two residents. Experts say removal and relocation is best, and that unless you get rid of every croc, there will always be a risk. But why is it that some creatures areconsidered a menace to society, while risks from others are ignored? Time was of the essence after wild brumbies wandered on to the Bruce Highway causing a tragic road fatality. After a second death, the ironically titled Action Group gave sharpshooters the green light to cull the herd, and although it would have been great to see these horses rounded up and tamed, the problem hasn’t resurfaced. Now the wild pigs rampaging in ourregion are in the spotlight, but an offer from bowhunters to help cull them has caused a flurry of feedback with the method of the final kill questioned. Pig hunters regularly use dogs to bring the pigs down by their ears so they can be finished off with a knife, but dogs can get badly mauled during this process. Bowhunters offer stealthy marksman-ship skills and use a long-handled knife to finish if required – no dogs. I know which I’d rather endorse. Then there’s the bats. Hideous, foul-smelling, disease-spreading creatures,
VILE VERMIN: Filthy bats have taken over areas of Townsville and Charters Towers. Surely it’s time for a cull.
Remember when the Palmetum was a popular weekend spot for picnics and wedding photos? Well, not any more ...
KATTER’S Australian Party will demand a tougher crackdown on coward punches when it re-enters negotiations with the State Government over lockout laws. Katter MP Shane Knuth warned the Government had hurt its chances of passing its lockout laws through the State Parliament after Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk refused to push back debate. She said the laws were too important to wait.
A MAN who fell asleep behind the wheel while ordering at a McDonald’s drive-through was one of 10 Northern Territory motorists who have been caught drink-driving by police. The man ordered at a Darwin drive-through on Thursday and pulled over into the waiting bay where he fell asleep, before being woken by police and breath-tested. He returned a blood-alcohol level of 0.196, almost four times the legal limit.
THE boss of the highly criticised NBN rollout has asked for trust as he vows to have eight million homes and businesses connected to high-speed broadband by 2020. NBN Co chief executive Bill Morrow said roughly half the nation’s homes and businesses were now either in the design stage, under construction or ready for service. “This is such a complex undertaking that has never been done before anywhere,’’ he said.

Hazard burns in progress
Bushfire alertWITH bushfire season around thecorner, firefighters are remindingshire residents to start cleaning andpreparing their properties.
Rural Fire Service Queensland(RFSQ) Far Northern region bushfiresafety officer Katie Mann said coolerovernight temperatures assisted in the
management of hazard reductionburns, with early morning dew helpingto extinguish them.
“Bushfire season is on our door-step,” she said. “With weather condi-tions favourable for hazard reductionactivities, now is the prime time forlandowners to consider what stepsthey should take to reduce their risk.”
Ms Mann said the first step for
landholders wanting to burn off was toapply for a permit.
“Permits are required at all timesfor a fire bigger than 2m in any direc-tion,” she said.
“They are free and can be obtainedfrom your local fire warden.
“As long as fires are lit when windspeeds are low, conditions are prob-ably the best we’ve seen all year for
low-intensity hazard reduction burns.”RFSQ has joined forces with Mar-
eeba Shire Council to reduce fire riskin Dimbulah as part of Operation CoolBurn.
Cairns acting area director JamieHaskell said Wolfram Road Rural FireBrigade started controlled burns onTuesday.TO PAGE 3

Wet end to dry yearGREENER pastures in theCharters Towers region and aflowing Burdekin River havemade a solid comeback, but theshowers of blessings in the newyear are expected to be short-lived.
A low pressure system orig-
inating from the Gulf Carpen-taria saw a big and wetDecember end, which carriedon into the first four days of thenew year yielding a total rain-fall of 89mm since December28.
Other drought stricken re-
gions in Northern Queenslandenjoyed the rain too, with Pen-tland, Ravenswood and Hugh-enden recording 95mm, 57mmand 25mm respectively duringthe last week.
But Bureau of Meterologyweather forecaster Diana
Eadie said the recent heavyrainfall was fleeting, with thelow pressure system shiftingtowards the coast.
“Essentially, we’ve had atropical low which trackedoriginally south and it’s pushedoff the coast now and Charters
Towers can expect to go backto more stable conditions forthe rest of the week,” she said.
