Small change, big memories: iconic kids' birthday cakes honoured on gold coins
Nostalgic kids' birthday cakes may soon start appearing in coin purses as the Royal Australian Mint releases a dozen designs based on a decades-old cookbook. The Australian Women's Weekly Children's Birthday Cake Book, first published in 1980, has inspired the new coin designs released on June 12. "Passed down through generations, this beloved book has sparked joy, kitchen chaos and unforgettable birthday memories," the mint said. The jelly-filled swimming pool, the lolly-laden candy castle, the Dolly Varden dress, the choo-choo train cake and the rubber ducky are among 12 recipes to be replicated on the mint's designs. The coins are legal tender, but have been designed with collectors in mind, as there's limited mintage on the series. Royal Australian Mint acting CEO Emily Martin, a child of the 1980s, said, "This cake book was on every bookshelf and used in just about every kitchen across Australia". "I used to spend a lot of time poring over its pages, choosing my next birthday cake," she said. "I particularly remember having the swimming pool. Of course, it was made with green jelly because in 1980, when this book came out, they didn't actually have blue jelly. It wasn't invented until later." Recipes from the Australian Women's Weekly Children's Birthday Cake Book were selected because they are "relatable to many Australians". "At the Mint, part of our remit is telling Australian stories and reliving Australian culture through our coins," Ms Martin said. "Something like this is just iconic, a lot of our coin programs showcase historic events or our natural beauty through our flora and fauna." The mint is releasing special products in addition to the coin series. "We have a special limited edition hardcover children's birthday cake book with a $1 choo choo train coin in it," Ms Martin said. She said the mint was also releasing an old-fashioned recipe card box, complete with coins and cake recipe cards. The mint is running an online ballot system to ensure the collectibles aren't scooped up by a handful of buyers. There will also be in-person purchase limits for customers buying through News Express stores. "There are limited mintages of everything, so I really would encourage people to get their hands on them as quickly as they can," the acting CEO said.

‘His contribution will not be forgotten': Tributes flow for $720m super stud Snitzel
Four-time champion Australian sire Snitzel has died after a glittering stud career which produced 23 individual group 1 winners, sales of some $450 million and prizemoney of $273 million worldwide. A son of another champion stallion, Redoute's Choice, Snitzel was euthanised on Wednesday morning at age 22 at Arrowfield Stud in Scone after showing 'signs of age-related decline' since last year. 'Despite comprehensive veterinary support and the daily dedication of Arrowfield's experienced stallion team, his condition deteriorated rapidly over the past week,' Arrowfield Stud said in a statement. 'With no treatment options remaining, the decision was made to allow him a peaceful and dignified farewell.' Foaled on August 24, 2002, the son of by Snippets' Lass won seven of his 15 starts on the track for Rosehill trainer Gerald Ryan. The victories included the listed Breeders Plate on debut and the group 3 Skyline and Up And Coming Stakes, before his sole group 1 win in the Oakleigh Plate. Starting his stud career in 2006, Snitzel went on to sire 160 stakes winners and was crowned champion Australian stallion four seasons in a row, from 2016-17 to 2019-20. His service fee last year was $247,500. His champion progeny include Chris Waller-trained star filly Lady Shenandoah, two-time Everest champion Redzel, four-time group 1-winner Trapeze Artist and Golden Slipper winners Marhoona (2025), Estijaab (2018) and Shinzo (2023). On Tuesday at Seymour, two-year-old colt Job Done became Snitzel's 20th individual juvenile winner for the season. He will be part of Snitzel's fifth Australian 2YO sires' premiership. Snitzel's direct progeny have won $273,085,262 in prizemoney worldwide, with most of that success coming in Australia, where they have won $218,014,638 and 146 stakes races. 'Arrowfield acknowledges the profound impact of his passing, not only as the loss of a great horse, but as the end of a significant chapter in the stud's history. Snitzel was more than a commercial success; he was a reliable and stoic presence who shaped the daily rhythm of life at the farm and anchored many careers,' the Arrowfield statement read 'Like his sire Redoute's Choice and grandsire Danehill, Snitzel became a cornerstone not only of Arrowfield's breeding program, but of the broader Australian thoroughbred industry. His contribution to the sport, measured in champions, premierships, and the people he brought together, will not be forgotten.'

It was once agenda-setting, appointment viewing. What went wrong for Q+A?
At its best, it helped set the national agenda. 'When management moved Q+A to Thursdays [in 2021], before shifting it back to Mondays, it disrupted what's meant to be a habit-based show,' says one high-profile ABC presenter. 'Cutting the number of episodes and putting the show on hiatus in the middle of the year only made things worse. It's hard enough to attract viewers as it is, without expecting them to chase you across different time slots or come back to you after a mid-year break that makes no sense.' One producer notes that Q+A led the way in terms of social media innovation, running a live feed of Twitter comments from viewers before archiving its account on the platform, now called X. 'Before Twitter became a sewer, it was a huge asset to the show,' the producer says. 'But by 2020, when Hamish [Macdonald] took over as host, it became so bad that he had to leave the platform. Stan Grant [who was appointed Q+A host in 2022] copped the most horrible, racist abuse, and you can imagine all the vile comments directed at the female presenters.' Peter Meakin – who spent five decades leading news and current affairs coverage at the Seven, Nine and Ten networks – suspects social media made some politicians more cautious (and therefore, more likely to bore viewers). Loading 'It used to be a sport for them to go on air and spar with each other,' Meakin says. 'You might get a few letters saying, 'That was disgraceful', but not the instant groundswell of hatred you get now. They're more scared of putting a foot wrong.' In a statement, ABC news director Justin Stevens said, 'Discontinuing the program at this point is no reflection on anyone on the show. We always need to keep innovating and renewing.' Stevens said the ABC would produce more news documentaries, and would make its Your Say election initiative – which allows audiences to suggest questions for politicians – a permanent feature. ABC managing director Hugh Marks later announced around 40 redundancies and 10 contract positions that would end early. He also flagged changes to the audio division, separating the sport and capital city network teams into a simpler structure. The ABC's content division will be renamed ABC Screen, led by content director Jennifer Collins. But McEvoy insists the national broadcaster must do more to fill the void created by Q+A's cancellation. 'The ABC always needs to be trying new things, but I don't think an online survey can really give Australian citizens the chance to question decision-makers and politicians – or hold them to account,' he says. 'Engaging Australian citizens in a moderated but open discussion on national issues is a core part of the ABC's obligations as a public service broadcaster … the toxicity of platforms like X that encourage outrage makes the role of a moderated forum like Q+A even more important.' Former prime minister Malcolm Turnbull, who was once a frequent guest on the program, believes Q+A was at its most compelling when it resembled a dinner party. 'It was all about having the right mixture of guests,' he says. 'In its heyday, if you were interested in Australian politics and you didn't watch it, you were concerned you might miss out on something.' Loading Since Jones left Q+A in 2019, the program has had several hosts including Macdonald, David Speers, Virginia Trioli, Stan Grant and Karvelas. 'All formats, after a time, start to feel a little tired,' says Trioli, who now hosts the ABC's Creative Types arts program. 'But I'm a huge fan of the Q+A format. It was a mighty program and one of the most important in terms of news, current affairs and public discussion in this country. 'People say they want accountability and they like to feel that issues are being put directly to politicians, but I think sometimes the audience can struggle with the reality of that,' she adds. 'You will get arguments, or politicians spinning their wheels and avoiding the question, while the host is trying to get them to answer – and that can make things awkward, uncomfortable or combative. It's a crapshoot every time, but the producers worked their guts out to do an amazing job.'
