So why can’t our beloved Powerhouse Museum have two campuses, avoiding the need to move Locomotive No. 1, the Catalina flying boat and the other large objects? – Dick Pollitt, Mosman

Why can’t this government abandon Baird’s grand design and restore some sanity to what is really needed for Parramatta. – Garry Horvai, Pennant Hills

The destruction of the Powerhouse Museum is an act of cultural vandalism without comparison in the modern world. Rather than extend the collection over two iconic sites as has been done in London with the Tate and Tate Modern, or in the USA over several sites with the Smithsonian Institute, the NSW government has opted for ongoing debasement of the state’s cultural, historical and environmental heritage.

What a soulless, vapid city politicians are creating. The old joke about a bridge and an opera house for sale is no longer funny. I expect to see them listed in Domain any day now. – Marie-Louise Dreux, Petersham

After all of the expense of the Darling Harbour revamp, the added attraction of a world class museum within easy walking distance of the hotels and the revamped area would make the museum a cash cow.

Does the government think tourists are going to get on a train or ferry out to Parramatta when the city is the centre of tourism? – Robin Humphrey, Springwood

If Gladys Berejiklian is confident that the electorate agrees with the rebuilding of the stadiums and the moving of the Powerhouse Museum, she should put both proposals on hold until after the next election.

This would allow all people to decide on the future of these major issues, something they are currently denied. – Tony Re, Georges Hall

The papers the government released reveal what we always knew about the proposed move of the Powerhouse Museum to Parramatta: it was never feasible.

Oh well, all is not lost: I’m pitching the storyline to the producers of Utopia. – Irma Havlicek, Umina Beach

Australia needs to go its own way in the world

Your editorial was most candid and sounds a clarion call for us in Australia (“Summit of illusions has a clear message”, June 14) .

Our future focus should be towards our neighbours in the Asia/Oceania region of the world.

America reflected in the persona of Donald Trump has for too long now sounded like the spoilt child who has had its lolly taken away.

They were once great contributors to the planet, but a culture of expected rights and freedoms has them now moving towards being takers rather than givers.

The foundations of the planet earth we once knew are being shaken. This is admittedly discomforting.

If we don’t point ourselves in our own chosen direction then the bully boys of the world will drag us in their direction, which is ultimately self-defeating.

Australia’s coming of age might well start with us recognising our First Nations peoples in our Constitution. There’s a solid foundation stone to move us forward creatively. – Neville Williams, Darlinghurst

Many times I thought Trump would never be elected President of USA (Letters, June 14). I watched every minute of the three debates and came away convinced that he had no hope of victory, especially when he refused to say he would accept the will of the people in the event of he not winning. I was dumbfounded on election day.

So who is to say he will not succeed now? Time will tell. I have learned not to write him off. And for world peace, I wish him well. – Michael Kennedy, West Pymble

Of all the comments on the Singapore Summit, Michael Kirby’s informed and compassionate assessment seems the one most worthy of reflection (“A long way to right the wrongs”, June 14). Beware those who “mock the time with fairest show” when a false face hides what the false heart knows. – Meredith Williams, Dee Why

Even the most ardent supporter of Trump admits he sometimes presents poorly, but if he succeeds in denuclearising the Kim regime, who cares about his demeanour and modus operandi – unless you are one of those elitists for whom the “sizzle is more important than the steak”. – George Fishman, Vaucluse

Trump has now verified that he is not the great negotiator that he like the world to believe that he is. Kim has neither ceded nor agreed to anything remotely close to denuclearisation. Trump’s new nickname? Steinway. Kim is playing him like a piano. – Alan Garside, Raglan

I await the announcement of the biggest, most expensive Trump Hotel project to date – in Pyongyang. – Patrick McGrath, Potts Point

Energised by school funding

The state election is only nine months away and we now have news of a huge boost in funding for schools (“Huge boost in funding for schools”, June 14).

The Treasurer Dominic Perrottet claims the government’s strong economic management has allowed for heavy investment in schools.

It was encouraging to read all new schools and schools being upgraded will be designed with sustainability in mind. Does this mean all these schools will be fitted with solar panels?

Schools are the obvious buildings to make use of solar energy as very few schools are open at night. An initial outlay for solar panels could save schools an enormous sum of money due to lighting, heating, cooling and computer networks.

If there is as much spare cash as the Treasurer claims surely there will be enough for solar panels. –Robyn Lewis, Raglan

Guarantee there will be no indoor swimming pools, orchestra pits or heated horse stables in the “necessary” upgrades earmarked for a number of public schools in NSW. – John Cotterill, Kingsford

Times are changing

Christian churches must forgo the right to keep silent on child sexual abuse, both as educational institutions and as hearers of confession (“Bishops still don’t get it, things have changed”, June 14).

If not, they must forgo the right to work with children in line with the rest of the community who are banned from working with children if they fail to report abuse. – Vanessa Tennent, Oatley

Whether the Catholic bishops “get it” or not, the Pope has publicly stated what they have to do. The Pope said, in reply to a journalist’s question, that there is zero tolerance of sexual abuse; bishops must remove all powers from priests who offend; and they must support victims including in the pursuit of civil claims.

Moreover, some of the things recommended by the royal commission and mentioned by Joanne McCarthy are simply not within a bishop’s power to change. They are matters for Rome. – Greg McCarry, Epping

My bet is that Malcolm Turnbull will take all the credit for the royal commission into child abuse during his apology on October 22 rather than thanking Julia Gillard for initiating it (“Tougher laws months away”, June 14). – Judy Hungerford, North Curl Curl

An undersea cable for neighbours

Congratulations to the Turnbull government for financing the undersea internet cable to the Solomon Islands (“‘It’s business’: talks with Chinese telco ongoing”, June 14).

As a wealthy nation, Australia should be very proactive and generous in helping our less well off neighbours in any way we can. Be proactive not reactive. – Graham Russell, Clovelly

Will the internet cable connection promised to the Solomon Islands and Papua New Guinea be better than the internet cable connections Turnbull promised to Australians? To where will their cable be connected? The home, curb or corner? They should check their contracts now for download speeds, data limits and ever-extending connection dates. – Ian Campbell, Newington

The political relationship between Brian Burston and Pauline Hanson has been destroyed.

Turnbull’s double dissolution stunt

It’s no surprise that One Nation and the rest of the hard-right fringe is fracturing (“Senate scramble as Burston quits One Nation”, June 14). Five senators on the right no longer represent the party of their election.

This alone damns our democracy or what is left of it. But the carnage is partly due to Malcolm Turnbull’s double dissolution election stunt which meant more fringe-dwellers were elected than in a normal half-senate election. – Nick Wilson, Palm Beach

Training students for jobs that don’t exist

Recent findings seem to go against the current thinking that we are helping students by training them for jobs that don’t yet exist and that future workers will undertake a variety of jobs in response to flexibility in the job market (“Early career choice pays off over lifetime”, June 14).

With this type of thinking espoused by leaders in government and education, is it any wonder that children no longer have a clear sense of career direction? It would also be interesting to know if this is contributing to the lack of engagement with education in our young people. – Philip Cooney, Wentworth Falls

For universities to boast about their student culture and the variety and volume of their degrees and not show where people end up after graduating means that adolescents aren’t to blame for having an uncertain career path. Being in year 12, I know what courses I want to do, I just have no idea where it will land me or who I will be working for. – Naosheyrvaan Nasir, Quakers Hill

Data entry is not teaching

Just what do we want from our teachers and students that we are subjecting both to such extremes of testing and data collection (“Teachers win data entry reprieve”, June 14). Imagine the stress put on little children by such testing no matter how good, kind, caring and wonderful the teacher may be. Imagine multiplying the collection of 1000 pieces of data for one child by 28 or 30.

Do the people who dream up these schemes ever think about what the rest of the class is doing while the teacher is finding and entering the data? No wonder teachers are complaining about workload.  – Augusta Monro, Dural

A final solution for refugees

Congratulations Australia, you’ve finally been recognised and acknowledged in the world (“Australia an inspiration for boat halt”, June 14).

Your treatment of refugees has been adapted by Italy and will forever be known as “The Aussie Solution”. Doesn’t have the same ring as “Final Solution” but the treatment of the oppressed is from the same page.

Hang your head in shame.  – Tony Redmond, Wyong

Italy is a beautiful country but now not for refugees.

Italy was wrong to refuse the shipload of refugees. Spain showed a kinder heart and a stronger character and acted to help the unfortunate souls. This is only one example of an issue that is going to be ongoing.

Let’s work on making life better for all. – Dennis Fitzgerald, Box Hill (Vic)

Beware the private lives of politicians

C’mon all you finger pointers! Barnaby Joyce is a top politician whose personal life should be private but a sad play of events made it prime-time news (“Joyce due for icy welcome at Nationals conference”, June 12). If we investigated the morality of all our pollies, Parliament House would make R-rated films and websites look like Sunday school picnics. – Cecile Hunt, Paddington

Stone Floor Restoration darling point- Vitrification and Crystallisation Facts

It is too often heard of comments about other trades, making the assumption that 'anyone could do that job'. This could not be further from the truth with regards to cleaning and restoring stone floors. Not only are skilled operatives required to learn in-depth information about the different types of machinery, cleaning techniques and product formulations but they are also required to tailor this knowledge for each and every different stone type.

An intriguing part of stone restoration is the polishing process. There are two different ways that an individual can achieve a polished finish to a stone such as marble. These are vitrification and crystallisation. Below are the details you need to fully understand the important facts about these fascinating processes.

Vitrification usually requires a two-step process as the restorer will spray an acidic solution which reacts with the calcium within the marble tile. Buffing machinery is then used to work this solution into the floor until it dries. A steel wood pad is placed onto the buffing machinery in order to complete this.

The product spray contains calcium fluorosilicate which alters the chemical formation of the surface. This process leave a much stronger and high-gloss finish to the stone. It is an important element to realise that once applied, the chemical alteration cannot be reversed so care should be taken when completing this process.

The second process still uses crystallisation, however, the product used is a powder rather than a liquid spray. Why is this better? The big difference is that once the powder is rinsed, the stone tile underneath is left clean and without build-up.

The stone surface is polished and the powder should only need a maximum of two applications. An important fact to remember is that the cheapest price for a professional restorer is not always the best. Expert knowledge and experience counts for so much and knowing details about the above processes will leave you with the opportunity to maximise the value of this incredible provision.

Stone Cleaning - The Ultimate Guide to stone restoration Sydney

Natural stone comes in a wide array of colors, styles and materials and includes marble, granite, slate and limestone. It is essential to use the correct method to care for natural stone to retain both the appearance and stability of your floor.

It is important to select a contractor who is experienced in stone restoration Sydney, as using the incorrect methods or chemicals can damage the material beyond repair. The fundamental goal of restoring stone is to reproduce the look and feel of a newly installed stone floor.

Stone floors are a beautiful accent to any home or office, if they are well-maintained. A stunning transformation is possible when floors dulled by dirt and scratches are cleaned, polished and restored by flooring professionals.

The first step is to remove any wax that may have been applied to surface which may have become very dirty especially in any pits that may be present. These pits are then filled with an epoxy to match the natural colour of the stone.

Next a grinding machine is used with numerous discs on the bottom of the machine while a steady flow of water is applied to maintain a dust free atmosphere as well as protect the discs as much as possible. This peels away the worn top surface to reveal a pristine layer underneath. This process is very time-consuming and it may take up to three different sets of discs to completely grind the floor to the level necessary.

The grinding process can also eliminate depressed grout joints. The grout will become level with the surface of the floor so that dirt can no longer develop in the recesses joint. A completely flat floor also gives the illusion of being monolithic and can enhance safety by reducing potential tripping hazards.

Grout lines are thoroughly cleaned using appropriate cleaning agents and brushes.

On removing the excess water the floor is then polished with compounds and powders to restore a brilliant luster. This enables the natural colour of the stone to come out, which is crucial to every polishing. Any excess polish is removed to prevent hazing.

Floors can be mopped dry to enable sealing, which protects the floor from staining and scratches and drastically improves the final look of the stone floor.

The above information works to provide you with the ultimate guide to stone floor restoration; a process that requires in-depth knowledge, skill and craftsmanship.
