Adelaide's property market, one of the nation's strongest in the past two years, has strengthened further recently.  ales volumes shows that market activity in the June quarter was the highest for Greater Adelaide since mid-2022. The June Quarter sales levels represented a 25% increase on the March Quarter and were 10% higher than the same time last year. This is despite the reality that listings of homes for sale across Adelaide are the lowest at any time in the past 15 years, according to SQM Research figures. This continues Adelaide's track record as a market with consistently high performance and helps to explain why it has been a challenger to Perth as the market with the highest price growth in the past two years. Adelaide's median house price rose 15% in the 12 months to August 2024, while the median unit price increased 12%, according to PropTrack data.  Only Perth has recorded higher annual price growth. Across the Greater Adelaide market, suburbs with positive trends with sales activity outnumber those with negative ones by a factor of three to one. The Greater Adelaide area has standout markets across all price ranges, including affordable municipalities like Playford and Salisbury, middle market areas including Marion and West Torrens, and more upmarket locations such as the Unley, Holdfast Bay and Charles Sturt LGAs. The Playford LGA, which contains Adelaide's cheapest suburbs, is the most popular precinct for buyers, with over 800 dwelling sales in the June Quarter. That was 31% higher than the same time last year – and a 53% increase on the March Quarter.  Most Playford suburbs have positive sales trends, either rising or consistent, with Blakeview and Davoren Park in particular standing out for their consistent buyer demand. The median house price for Blakeview has risen 16% to $550,000 in the past 12 months, while Davoren Park is up 33% to $440,000. Davoren Park had a median house price of just $175,000 three years ago. The neighbouring Salisbury LGA, another precinct targeted for its affordable homes, is also a strong performer with sales levels considerably higher than the March Quarter and also the same time in 2023. Rising markets in the City of Salisbury are headed by standout suburbs like Ingle Farm and Mawson Lakes. The median house price for Ingle Farm was $380,000 three years ago and is now $655,000, after 19% growth in the past 12 months. Another outer-ring location with outstanding numbers is the Mount Barker LGA, which has recorded the highest quarterly sales numbers in more than three years. The suburbs with strongly rising sales activity include Nairne and Mount Barker. Nairne's median house price has risen 17% to $750,000 in the past 12 months. Among the middle market areas, the West Torrens LGA is a notable performer with a significant increase in sales activity in the June Quarter – the highest levels since late in 2021. There are no suburbs with negative trends in West Torrens, while rising markets are headed by Underdale, Torrensville, Plympton and Fulham. The Port-Adelaide Enfield LGA has numerous suburbs with positive ratings, with sales activity overall much higher in the June Quarter compared to the March Quarter and the same time last year. Notable rising markets include Lightsview and Blair Athol. The City of Marion has recorded its highest quarterly sales numbers since mid-2022 in a market dominated by suburbs with positive sales trends, including rising suburbs Warradale, Hallett Cove and Edwardstown. The median house price for Hallett Cove has risen from $470,000 to $800,000 in the past four years. Some of Adelaide's more upmarket precincts are also travelling well. Ten of the suburbs in the Charles Sturt LGA are ranked as rising markets, headed by Flinders Park, Findon and Bowden. Sales activity has been rising steadily in the Holdfast Bay municipality in the past four quarters. A standout feature is that the unit markets in both Glenelg and Glenelg North are classified as rising markets in our latest analysis. The upmarket City of Unley has a particularly strong June Quarter, with sales numbers up almost 50% on the March Quarter. Rising suburbs include Parkside (median house price $1.3 million), Clarence Park ($1.27 million) and Myrtle Bank ($1.6 million). The overall conclusion is that the Adelaide market continues to pump strongly and is likely to be a national market leader on price growth for the foreseeable future.

Yael Goldstein-Love discusses her time- and genre-bending novel, The Possibilities, trying to put motherhood into words, using quantum mechanics to explain the paradox of parenthood, the way parents birth a child's mind, mom rage, writing humor, her newest project, and more! Yael Goldstein-Love is the author of the novels The Passion of Tasha Darsky, described as “showing signs of brooding genius” by The New York Times, and The Possibilities, a speculative thriller about the psychological transition to motherhood. A PEOPLE pick of the week (“a powerful page-turner with deep wisdom”) and Good Morning America recommendation for summer reading (“taps into those primal feelings every nurturer feels — and fears”), The Possibilities grew out of Goldstein-Love's own rocky transition to motherhood as well as her clinical passion for working with people during this fraught and potentially generative period. Her doctoral dissertation examined how mothers experience their anxiety for the unknown futures of their children. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, The Boston Globe, and Slate, among other places. A graduate of Harvard University and The Wright Institute, she lives with her six-year-old son and a very patient cat in Berkeley, CA. In another life, she was co-founder and Editorial Director of the literary studio Plympton, which aims to make the digital age a golden age for literature. Learn more about your ad choices.

Born in Portland, Oregon to Don and Wilda Plympton, he grew up in a large family of three girls and three boys. For the six children it was often far too wet to play outside. Plympton credits Oregon's rainy climate for nurturing his drawing skills and imagination. He also was a cub scout and played little league when the weather permitted. In 1964 he graduated from Oregon City High School where he participated in the art club. He went on to Portland State University, where he edited the yearbook and was a member of the film society, creating posters for them. It was here where he picked up his obsession for film – it was for this film society that he first attempted animation, making a yearbook promo that was accidentally shot upside-down, rendering it totally useless. To avoid the Vietnam War, Plympton served in the National Guard from 1967 to 1972. In 1968, he moved to New York City and began a year of study at the School of Visual Arts. Making the Big Apple his home, Plympton served 15 years as an illustrator and cartoonist. Between toting his portfolio and catching cheap matinees, he designed the magazines: Cineaste, Filmmakers Newsletter, and Film Society Review. His illustrations have graced the pages of The New York Times, Vogue, House Beautiful, The Village Voice, Screw, and Vanity Fair. His cartoons appeared in such magazines as Viva, Penthouse, Rolling Stone, National Lampoon, and Glamour. In 1975, in The Soho Weekly News, he began “Plympton,” a political cartoon strip. By 1981, it was syndicated in over twenty papers by Universal Press Syndicate. All his life, Bill Plympton has been fascinated by animation. When he was fourteen, he sent Disney some of his cartoons and offered up his services as animator. They wrote back and told him that while his drawings showed promise, he was too young. It wasn't until 1983 that he was approached to animate a film. The Android Sister Valeria Wasilewski asked Plympton to direct and animate a film she was producing of Jules Feiffer's song, “Boomtown.” Connie D'Antuono, another of the film's producers, “sort of held my hand through the whole process,” Plympton says. “It was a great way to learn to make a film.” Immediately following the completion of “Boomtown,” he began his own animated film, “Drawing Lesson # 2.” Production of the live action scenes was slow due to inclement weather, so Plympton decided to start on another film. For this one, he contacted Maureen McElheron, an old friend with whom he had performed in a Country Western Band (he played pedal steel guitar), and she agreed to score “Your Face.” Due to budgetary considerations, she also sang. Her voice, eerily decelerated to sound more masculine, combined with a fantastically contorting visage helped garner the film a 1988 Oscar nomination for best animated short. “Suddenly people began returning my phone calls,” remembers Plympton. He became very hot in the commercial business doing spots for such clients as Trivial Pursuit, Nutrasweet, Taco Bell, AT&T, Nike, Geico, United Airlines and Mercedes-Benz. His work also started appearing with more and more frequency on MTV and in the increasingly popular touring animation festivals. After a string of highly successful short films (“One of Those Days,” “How to Kiss,” “25 Ways to Quit Smoking,” and “Plymptoons”), he began thinking about making a feature film. His shorts were winning prizes like crazy and he wanted a new challenge – and, as he puts it, “I'd wanted to make a full-length movie ever since I was a kid.” What came to be called THE TUNE was financed entirely by the animator himself. Sections of the feature were released as short films to help generate funds for production. These include “The Wiseman” and “Push Comes to Shove,” the latter of which won the 1991 Prix du Jury at the Cannes Film Festival. With money from his short film prizes and commercial work, he was able to complete THE TUNE and realize a childhood dream. The completed TUNE also made the rounds of the film festivals, garnering the prestigious Houston WorldFest Gold Jury Special Award as well as a Spirit Award nomination for Best Film Score and was distributed nationally by October Films. After personally drawing and coloring 30,000 cels for THE TUNE, Plympton moved to live-action. J. LYLE, his first live-action feature, is a wacky, surreal comedy about a sleazy lawyer who meets a magical talking dog that changes his life. “Making THE TUNE, I had a lot of ideas I realized wouldn't work with animation, but would be lots of fun with real people! I took those ideas and made J. LYLE. Besides, my hand needed a rest after drawing THE TUNE.” After a successful festival circuit, J. LYLE was released in theaters around the country. Like THE TUNE, J. LYLE was financed entirely by the animator himself. Plympton's second live-action feature, GUNS ON THE CLACKAMAS, a behind-the-scenes look at an imaginary disastrous Western, was shot in Oregon and New York. Plympton says the idea came from the 1937 movie “Saratoga”, in which star Jean Harlow died during the filming and a stand-in was used to finish. “It was supposed to be a drama,” says Plympton, “but it ended up being funny. Every time Harlow was in a scene, a box or something blocked the view.” As with J. LYLE,GUNS ON THE CLACKAMAS got a limited theatrical release. In 1996, Bill Plympton followed “Mala Noche” writer Walt Curtis around his Portland hometown to record him reading his poetry. This outrageous performance film hit the festival circuit in 1997 to stunned audiences. It is entitled WALT CURTIS, PECKERNECK POET. In 1998, Bill returned to animation with I MARRIED A STRANGE PERSON. It's a heartwarming story of a newlywed couple on their wedding night. Grant, the husband, starts experiencing strange, supernatural powers and Kerry, his wife, can't cope. Whenever Grant thinks of something, it becomes reality, yet he doesn't know where these magical powers come from. Once again Bill Plympton single-handedly drew and financed an animated feature extravaganza – only this time for adults and the politically incorrect. It was released by Lions Gate Films to good box office numbers and still plays today on cable TV. Bill's next animated feature, MUTANT ALIENS, the story of a stranded astronaut returning to Earth after 20 years in space, was completed in January 2001 and premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. It won the Grand Prix in Annecy 2001 and was released in theatres in 2002. It has played all over the world to huge audiences. Bill's feature film, HAIR HIGH, is a gothic '50s high-school comedy about a love-triangle that goes terribly bad, with two young, murdered teens returning to their prom to get revenge. It stars the voice talents of Sarah Silverman, David & Keith Carradine, and Dermot Mulroney, and was co-produced by Martha Plimpton. Plympton charted new territory in animation, this time by broadcasting all of his drawing for the film live on the web at www.hairhigh.com. The film was completed in January 2004, released in over 50 cinemas around the country – and was released on DVD. Bill's short film GUARD DOG has been a hit at film festivals and it brought Bill his second Oscar nomination in January 2005. Two equally successful sequels soon followed, “Guide Dog” in 2006 and “Hot Dog” in 2008. Throughout his career, Bill has always made 2 to 3 short films a year that keep bringing in a solid income from sales around the world. His feature film, IDIOTS AND ANGELS, was completed in 2008 and after a successful run on the film festival circuit, was released in U.S. theaters in 2010. The film features the music of Tom Waits, Pink Martini, Nicole Renaud and Maureen McElheron, and no dialogue. It's a much more mysterious film than his previous ones, a dark comedy about a man's battle for his soul. “Because this film has no dialogue,” Plympton says, “I wanted music to play throughout – almost like a long opera – or an extended string of music videos. The look of the film is very Eastern European – something like what Jan Svankmayer might make, or David Lynch if he made animation – very dark and surreal.” Bill waited a little while before starting his next feature, and used the time to release several successful short films, such as THE COW WHO WANTED TO BE A HAMBURGER, SUMMER BUMMER andDRUNKER THAN A SKUNK. But eventually his plans returned to feature-length animation, and he started work on CHEATIN', the story of two lovers, Jake and Ella, who encounter jealousy and insecurity after their perfect courtship. Partially inspired by the works of James M. Cain, and partially inspired by a past relationship, CHEATIN' is a tale of exaggerated passion and star-crossed lovers, exploring the dual nature of how two people immensely attracted to each other can also want to kill each other at the same time. CHEATIN‘ may also be the first animated feature partially funded on Kickstarter, with loyal Plympton fans kicking in over $100,000 needed to finish it. Plympton's movies have won him such a loyal following that the cable channel Shorts HD bought the rights to his entire library and set up a Bill Plympton channel on iTunes, something he hopes will engage a whole new generation of fans. Bill is currently working on finishing HITLER'S FOLLY, a mock-umentary about Adolf Hitler's love of animation. He's directing and drawing another film called REVENGEANCE, written by animator Jim Lujan, which is also being partially funded through a Kickstarter campaign.

A 47 year old man died on a Plympton footpath after a 42-minute wait for an ambulance, and despite desperate attempts by a heroic bystander to revive him. Some of South Australia's most vulnerable patients are subjected to “substandard” care at government disability facilities, a damning review has found. A young woman who fell from a moving ute and was run over by a taxi in the early hours of Sunday morning has “pulled through”, her mother says.

In this episode, Maureen Conway interviews Rick Plympton, CEO of Optimax and one of the Aspen Institute's Job Quality Fellows.

We chat with former St.Kilda president Andrew Plympton about his time at Moorabbin and how the Saints came close to merging with Carlton. We also dig into the circumstances that lead to the sacking of Stan Alves. He also chats about his sailing connections and his membership on the Australian Olympic Committee executive.

This episode evolved out of several others. The three audio contributions I received were placed under different headings. Then I received the anonymous contribution and it seemed to tie things together; hence “Honesty”. I can’t think of anyone who I’ve spoken to since this pandemic started who hasn’t had to change the way they think or operate. We hear from a pub landlord (who’s now become a virtual pub landlord and is supporting the community while considering the impact on his business (If you’re looking for a virtual pub try https://www.facebook.com/virtualbrookinn/ ), a retired gentleman, a mindset coach (who talks about the impact on his clients and his own mental health) and one who feels lonely as the remaining non-furloughed member of staff in a manufacturing business.

In which we learn that the third season of Super Friends wasn’t really lost, find out that Ron never read Marshall McLuhan, and miss out on the lost last ten minutes, after watching Bill Plympton’s I Married a Strange Person and an episode of Super Friends.

[1:10] The early days of Optimax located in a barn but leveraging computer-controlled machining [2:45] Growth assisted by Kodak, now working with NASA Mars Rover [4:00] Focusing on "small volume, high quality, quick delivery" and through a combination of Technology, process and attitude, becoming the largest Optics manufacturer in the US [5:15] How lean manufacturing plus a culture of openness, sharing and distributed decision-making keeps Optimax growing "We know that some of the best ideas for improvement come from the people DOING THE WORK every day...so at Optimax, we've tried to make sure that we build in processes that enable those ideas to percolate to the top." [8:00] The EVOLution of corporate culture at Optimax - "What was the right decision or the right process yesterday, may not be the right decision or the right process today, so we're continuing to look for opportunities for improvement [9:00] How to get started on the EVOLution to a self-empowered organization: "A fundamental belief that most people wake up in the morning and they want to create value, so what we have to do is provide our employees with training, resources and current information so that they can make good decisions, so that they can show up at work and do whatever needs to get done to create value. In contrast, if you look at a traditional pyramid-structure organization, it's really frustrating because people in the organization doing the work have really good ideas but what tends to happen is that many of those ideas get squashed and it destroys people's spirits." [10:35] "I don't think we began to realize until we were on the journey, Optimax was growing in the early days at the sphere of influence of the leadership team. As we let go of the reigns and started allowing others to make decisions and take responsibility, Optimax started to grow at the sphere of influence of the entire team." [11:30] Why every individual can be a superstar when their role is aligned with their gifts [12:30] How the cultural EVOLution has driven 20% annual growth, still with plenty of opportunity ahead [13:30] Rick's personal evolution as a leader - peer reviews, creating a learning culture, working with Bruce Peters (Bruce's episode here: https://fortheevolutionofbusiness.simplecast.com/episodes/teal) [15:45] How to get started on the teal journey (Recommended reading: Reinventing Organizations by Frederic Laloux: https://www.reinventingorganizations.com/) [18:00] Why a self-empowered team does NOT need consensus, and what to do instead [19:50] The corporate structure and decision-making processes with self-empowered teams Optimax - "We're relying less and less on some sort of strategic plan...and more and more on living life in the moment and sensing and responding to the opportunities that are there today." [25:15] Aligning the reward system with the culture that you're trying to create - monthly profit sharing at Optimax, investing in higher education, 401k matching, donating time off to potential employees "I'd like to make sure that every one of our employees has the opportunity to be a millionaire by the time they retire." [28:15] How to onboard employees into a teal culture (Recommended reading: Question Behind The Question by John Miller: https://qbq.com/qbq-the-question-behind-the-question/) [30:30] Creating more "Inclusive Prosperity" through more conscious succession planning that ensures that they will stay vibrant, keep jobs here and benefit the local community - "most of the wealth created by the company goes back to the employees so the people creating the wealth share in the wealth. This would be a great way not only to benefit employees but also to strengthen communities across the nation." [33:00] Rick's Aspen Institute Fellowship on Job Quality [35:45] The leadership EVOLution necessary for the EVOLution of business toward Conscious Capitalism: "As a business leader, I think if you're willing to let go of the reigns, you'll find that you'll end up on a path that will take you places you never imagined you could go." [37:30] The importance of finding your strengths and finding a role where you can leverage those strengths [40:20] Creating a culture where people can share challenges and help each other grow: "Some people come to Optimax just looking for a job, they're at a place in life where they just want a paycheck so that they can pay their bills, but it's a beautiful thing to see that same individual a few months later where they've gone through a transition and they've learned some new skills and they've begun to understand the culture that we have and they show up at work and they're passionate about what they're doing. I just love that." [43:45] Investing in internal R&D, but also looking at how to helping support employees with ideas of their own [46:00] Scaling the culture for continued growth at Optimax

This month we take a trip down the Clackamas river for the 1995 mockumentary "Guns on the Clackamas," directed by legendary animator and Oscar-nominee* Bill Plympton. How was Plympton's transition from animation royalty to live-action director? Will the Clackamas finally get its time to shine? Find out on this episode!*There are multiple times where we accidentally refer to him as "Oscar Winner," which is not the case since he has only been nominated, but it 1000% should be true because Bill Plympton is a genius animator.

Our esteemed guests are Rick Plympton and Mike Mandina, CEO and President of Optimax Systems. This optics company is no traditional success story. The website states it well: “We leverage our optics manufacturing technology for programs that benefit mankind and projects that defend our freedom.” Rick and Mike have fostered a corporate culture that empowers and dignifies the 280 people who work there. It's nothing short of cutting edge…and fun. Rick Plympton, CEO, Optimax Systems Mike Mandina, President, Optimax Systems

Today's Guest: Bill Plympton, filmmaker, Hitler's Folly, Cheatin Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of professional Nazi hunters who don’t know what a ‘mockumentary’ is but suspect it has clues that will satisfy their lives’ work… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! When you start watching Hitler’s Folly, the new film by Academy Award nominee Bill Plympton, the action starts immediately and you can’t help but get pulled in. And when you get to the end, you’ll probably do what I did – start over from the beginning and watch it again. BILL PLYMPTON podcast excerpt: "I was reading a newspaper and saw that Hitler was a big fan of 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.' I thought that was the most surreal thing I ever heard. Here is the most evil man in history, laughing over the antics of these dwarfs!" Hitler’s Folly is a mockumentary, a fake documentary, if you will, in the spirit of Spinal Tap or, if you want to be era-specific, I suggest H.G. Wells’ infamous radio play, “War of the Worlds.” In Plympton’s conceit, Adolf Hitler never lost his desire to become an artist – an animator, in fact, in the mode of Walt Disney. For Hitler, the German aggression of the second world war is nothing but an opportunity for him to create his cartoon magnum opus, an animated version of The Ring, featuring his Disney like creation, "Downey Duck." And those concentration camps? Wait until you learn what their real purpose was! BILL PLYMPTON podcast excerpt: "I didn't want to pay a lawyer $10,000 to go through the film and pay another $10,000 for rights, so we decided to release 'Hitler's Folly' for free. And if people like it, they can donate to my studio so we can make more films." By the way, Plympton calls Adolf Hitler a media star – “the Donald Trump of the past.” I don’t want to give away too much, but you will likely come to the end of Hitler’s Folly convinced that the Axis lost the Big One for a completely different reason than the one found in most history books. Hitler’s Folly will be streamed for free at www.plymptoons.com beginning on Friday, June 3. This is Bill Plympton’s second visit to Mr. Media; the first was in April 2015 to promote his animated feature, Cheatin.

This week, Travis chooses Idiots and Angels (2008), a film from animator Bill Plympton, known for his distinctive art style and early-year MTV interstitials. In Idiots and Angels, a curmudgeonly fellow awakens one day to find he's grown a pair of wings which prevent him from indulging himself in bad deeds. Plympton, an iconoclastic animator, undertakes the entire process of animating a feature film himself. Plus, find out how the Chexist Chainsaw Massacre ties in, and listen as we attempt to trace the lineage of adult animation, from Ralph Bakshi all the way through Adult Swim!
