When his sister died from diabetes, playwright Robert Harling wrote a play as a tribute. It ran for 1,126 performances when it opened on Broadway in 1987.
In 1989 a film starring Sally Field, Dolly Parton, Julia Roberts and Shirley MacLaine firmly cemented Steel Magnolias in our hearts.
The play’s popularity sees it performed regularly in theatres around the world. Its first Australian production at the York Theatre, Sydney in May 1988 featured Nicole Kidman in her professional stage debut, alongside legends Maggie Dence, Nancye Hayes, Melissa Jaffer, Genevieve Lemon and Pat McDonald.

Members of the Eumundi Rotary Club together with local volunteers, took part in the nationwide Clean Up Australia Day campaign on 1 March, joining communities across the country in a shared effort to care for the environment.
The club extends its sincere thanks to everyone who took part. Seven club members and 1 local Eumundi family – 2 adults and 2 young children – joined the clean up effort. Volunteers focused on the Eumundi tunnels and Ball Lookout, collecting 4 large bags of general waste and 3 large bags of recyclable material. Where possible, the rubbish was carefully sorted to maximise recycling and reduce waste sent to landfill.
The prize for the most unusual find was was awarded for a car’s front bumper – a sizeable discovery. Other notable items included broken parking bollards, a cigarette lighter, a vape, a battery, eggshells, pieces of polystyrene and even a nappy. One volunteer also struck gold, finding $5 at Ball Lookout. As expected, there were large quantities of cigarette butts, disposable coffee cups and lids, soft plastics, bottles, cans, paper towels and food scraps.
The event was a positive example of community collaboration, reinforcing the importance of protecting and maintaining local spaces for everyone to enjoy. ... See MoreSee Less

Walk into any pharmacy and you will see the shelves stocked with familiar pain relievers. Many of these belong to a group called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, commonly known as NSAIDs. But what exactly are they – and when should they be used?
NSAIDs are medicines designed to relieve pain, reduce inflammation (swelling) and lower fever. They are called non-steroidal because they are not steroids like cortisone, although both types of medicines reduce inflammation.
Many are available over the counter, while stronger versions require a prescription. Some widely used NSAIDs include:
◾ Ibuprofen (e.g. Nurofen, Advil)
◾ Aspirin (e.g. Aspro)
◾ Naproxen (e.g. Naprogesic)
◾ Diclofenac (e.g. Voltaren)
◾ Celecoxib (e.g. Celebrex)
When your body is injured or inflamed it produces chemicals called prostaglandins. These chemicals cause pain, swelling, redness and heat. NSAIDs work by blocking the enzymes COX-1 and COX-2 which are responsible for producing prostaglandins. The result? Less inflammation and less pain.
