Late ABC journalist Peter Ryan celebrated for 'long and storied career'
On the wall of Peter Ryan's Sydney home hangs a picture bearing the simple title: "Scoop." The framed and enlarged print of the Penguin cover of the Evelyn Waugh novel of that name often appeared in the background of his live TV reports filed from his home office. The satirical novel about a journalist who, in a case of mistaken identity, finds himself becoming an international news correspondent was a cultural reference point — and possibly a thoroughly-undeserved dig at himself — that Peter could never resist slyly sharing with the ABC's viewers. For anyone sharp-eyed enough to pick up on that small, personal indulgence, Pete's jovial face would always light up with delight as he proudly claimed the joke. It was no small sign of Peter's generous spirit that he welcomed the Australian viewing public inside his home, when, confronted with the challenge of pandemic lockdowns, he transformed his home office into his own remote broadcasting centre, bringing business and finance news uninterrupted to national audiences on radio and television. Of course those days were not without the occasional technical hiccup, which Peter always handled with his customary aplomb, just as he did during one fondly-remembered television live cross when an off-camera voice called out in the middle of the report "Dad, lunch is ready!" Peter embraced working from home with gusto, demonstrating a technological nous, versatility and adaptability that few could hope to match. He would delight in showing off his home "studio" to visitors and he could be paid no greater compliment than when his listeners wrongly assumed he was filing his stories from inside the ABC's Ultimo headquarters. Versatility, adaptability were always hallmarks of one of the ABC's most efficient and multi-skilled content-makers. From his earliest days in the noisy, smoke-filled newsrooms of the 1980s, Peter stepped effortlessly from a world dominated by manual typewriters, telex and fax machines, through to a media landscape fundamentally transformed by the digital and social media revolutions that would follow. As his best mate and long-time colleague, former ABC Foreign Affairs Editor and former AM host Peter Cave said today: "He was a technical wizard." "He set up the TV studio there, he set up the radio studio, and he could work from home," he said. "And he did right through COVID. And as he became ill and couldn't get into the office, he still reported from his home bureau." But Peter was never a stranger to the office where he was long a fixture as part of the ABC Audio Current Affairs team, working to generate agenda-setting news and current affairs on ABC flagship programs AM, The World Today and PM, along with creating bespoke content daily for News Radio, Radio National, the ABC local radio network and the ABC News Channel. His work ethic was always herculean — and his joy in delivering breaking news never diminishing over his long and storied career as a journalist. From his beginnings as a "copy kid" and cadet at Sydney's Daily Mirror where he graduated to covering crime and other mayhem on the overnight news beat, before moving on to what he called his "spiritual home" at the ABC where he quickly rose to become Washington Bureau Chief, a senior news executive, ABC Business Editor and Senior Business Correspondent. A Member of the Order of Australia for his contribution to journalism, he won a Walkley Award for breaking the Commonwealth Bank's money laundering scandal in 2017. His coverage of misconduct in the financial sector was instrumental to the establishment of the banking royal commission, leading to reforms that have affected virtually every Australia in some form or another. Regardless of his many accomplishments, Peter was always genuinely pleased to help others and shared that help far and wide throughout his long career. As Peter himself told his colleagues when his medical retirement was announced last month: "Be kind and caring to people who need it. "As my father once told me — treat people on the way up, the way YOU want to be treated on the way down." It's no small mark of the man that when Peter learned a younger colleague, AM Technical Producer Khem White, was planning to visit a St Vincent De Paul outlet to purchase a wedding suit, Peter insisted on taking him shopping for a "new quality suit". "I'm sure my wife was thankful I wasn't sporting the extra-large, mothball-smelling, pin-striped number. From that day forward I came to realise what a lovely man Peter is and how he will always take the time to make everyone feel valued and important. Even when he would be connecting-in from the Reserve Bank on a busy interest rate announcement day, he would always take a moment to speak to me like an equal," he said. It was that fundamental kindness and decency that characterised Peter's dealings with so many in his orbit. And there were many, many people in that orbit. "He maintained a meticulous contact book, it was amazing," Peter Cave said. "He could within minutes pull just about any business leader of Australia out of his contact book, get on to them and get them on air." Those contacts, his high regard from the business community and Peter's reputation as a fair and balanced reporter, ensured a steady flow of exclusive interviews. But he was always a fierce and effective warrior against those he saw as responsible for injustice and other misdeeds. A champion of transparency, accountability and gender equity in the boardroom and the workplace, he was always dogged in pursuing the truth and countering disadvantage wherever it existed. Among his many other professional credits, he sat on the board of the Media Entertainment Arts Alliance's Benevolent Fund, which provided help for journalists who had fallen on hard times. Regardless of his accomplishments though, Peter always had time to share a joke, some words of advice and offer a friendly ear to everyone. There are countless journalists who benefited from his advice and mentoring. And at a time when many people's careers are winding down, Peter was throwing ever-more energy and enthusiasm into his craft and his hunt to get the next "scoop". He never lost his zeal for journalism while always being generous and supportive to his colleagues and quick to offer advice, enthusiasm and praise — he always had time to offer his friendship, a word of advice or camaraderie, or just a joke or wry observation. He was the kind of person everyone walked away from feeling better about themselves. Sadly, life just didn't have enough time for Peter and we're all the poorer for it. A lifelong Beatles fan, Peter might have appreciated the words credited to John Lennon: "Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans." Peter had great plans for the years ahead, often discussing his plans for retirement and his desire to devote his future to his two favourite people — his wife Mary and daughter Charlotte. His devotion to them was an inspiration to anyone who juggles the work-life balance and a reminder that the greatest measure of anyone's success in life is the cherished memories they leave behind for those who loved them. Peter was well-loved and will be well-remembered by those whose lives he touched. We will never see his like again and we will miss him deeply.

Kmart August Living range reveals bold new red decor trend
For years, it has been all about neutral tones and capsule wardrobes, but finally that trend is being ditched thanks to an 'unexpected' addition. Kmart launched its August Living range, set to hit stores on July 24, and while neutral tones were still very much present it seemed this season was all about colour. For those unsure how to bring a pop of colour into their home, Kmart buyer Nic Holmes recommended the 'unexpected red theory'. The theory refers to a design concept popularised by Taylor Migliazzo Simon, which is the idea that a touch of red can make any space feel more vibrant, stylish and pulled together. This is because the colour instantly demands attention and draws the eye in. It purposefully goes against what we've been told for half a decade — that we should be trying to make our homes as neutral as possible. 'We're seeing some very viral moments — so anything red, this 'unexpected red theory' that's coming through,' the longtime Kmart buyer told The budget retailer has brought red into store in small ways, such as the $19 Nico Portable Rechargeable Lamp and the $39 Hourglass side table. 'They're small pieces where you can introduce red into your home without significant investment,' he said. 'Layering these berries and reds is becoming a real theme of the season.' Mr Holmes said customers did love the peeled back, neutral tones but the global trend was shifting towards dopamine decor — putting items you love in your home to make it more inviting and ditching trends in favour of what brings you joy. 'It's about being able to introduce colours into your home and making that very big statement away from what you're used to seeing,' he said. 'And you don't have to spend a lot of money to sneak in a dopamine piece — a cushion is enough. You can bring in side tables, you can bring in different pieces. 'And once you get comfortable with that, you can really layer on. We started introduce a bit of colour last season, and there was a lot of appetite for it.' Kmart's latest range features green, blue, red, pink and mustard yellow all for the sake of that dopamine decor trend. He said Kmart saw that, and decided to run with it. Mr Holmes said it is something he is expecting to see a lot more of in coming collections. Last year, Isfira Jensen, CEO and principal interior designer at Jensen & Co. Interiors, told ELLE that dopamine decor was a 'much needed' trend after years of neutral and minimalism.
