Shire of Noosa

The Shire of Noosa is a local government area about 130 kilometres (81 mi) north of Brisbane in the Sunshine Coast region of South East Queensland, Australia. The shire covered an area of 868.7 square kilometres (335.4 sq mi), and existed as a local government entity from 1910 until 2008, when it amalgamated with the Shire of Maroochy and City of Caloundra to form the Sunshine Coast Region.

In 2013, residents voted to leave the amalgamated Sunshine Coast Region. On 9 November 2013 an election resulted in Noel Playford being elected to take office on 1 January 2014 with the new council.

The Shire of Noosa was re-established on 1 January 2014.

History

Ancient history

The Noosa area was originally home to several Aboriginal groups. These primarily include the Undumbi tribe to the south, the Dulingbara to the north, and the Kabi Kabi (or Gabbi Gabbi) to the west.

Although much of the culture and presence of the traditional owners of the Noosa district has been lost during the short period of white settlement, there still exist many subtle reminders. These include:

Noosa (artist)

Sky Barbarick, better known by her stage name Noosa, is an American singer-songwriter.

Background

The name comes from the place of the same name in Australia where Sky became inspired to write songs as a way of "translating [her] spirit to the world".

Noosa was exposed to the world when Sky's song "Mirrors in the Moonlight" was transformed by producer Mickey Valen into their first single "Fear of Love". This and a string of later singles went to #1 on The Hype Machine. Since then, Noosa has released a 5 track EP in 2013, with one of its tracks featured on a Kellogg's commercial, and a debut studio album entitled "Wonderland" in 2014.

    I Made You Look

    by: Nas

    Intro: Jadakiss]
    I need it from the top, AHHH!
    This is history baby
    Commissioner Steve Stoute, Lenny - ha!
    God's Son, whattup?
    D-Block, whattup?
    Bravehearts, whattup? Yeah

    [Verse One: Jadakiss]
    Yo ain't nothin but trouble God
    When I kick in the door with D-Block, Bravehearts and the Double R
    Don't make me let the machine off
    This is methadone music that you can lean off
    "Made You Look," the remix with me up on it
    I copped your shit, now I break weed up on it
    And everything is real I see
    Like my niggaz that been home but they only got a jail ID
    I helped the game, it ain't help me
    I'm top five dead or alive and that's just off one LP
    And, I still buzz, they feel cuz
    Cause they know the flow's Ill just like Will was
    I'm just tryin to make sure that my sons wealthy
    Out of shape but I make sure that my guns healthy
    I'm a ape, you can't stand 'Kiss
    Comin through the hood in a Aston Vanguish the color of dandruff
    They said we jumped him, I just let the gun snuff him
    Copped P then turboed soon as they uncuff him
    This goes out to all of your mans
    Why put you in the verse when I can put in a coroner van
    D-Block
    [Chorus 2X: Nas]
    THEY SHOOTIN! Ah made you look
    You a slave to a page in my rhyme book
    Gettin big money, playboy your time's up
    Where them gangsters, where them dimes at?
    [Verse Two: Ludacris]
    Yuh, woo! It's time to go, Luda let's go!
    I'm from the school of hard knocks, sneak peeks and low blows
    Where X's mark spots and kitchens mark O's
    Where love is gon' getcha and hate is gon' snitch ya
    And fingers squeeze triggers like boa constrictors
    It's the, Mr. Luda, Jada and Nas
    And our bullets give you a deep tissue massage
    So hear a song and dance while I make these ends
    You never stood half a chance like Siamese Twins
    AHHH - THEY SHOOTIN, look in the barrel
    Then he made the front page of the Miami Herald
    or Chi. Tribune, nozzles with silent doom
    We in that A-Town Journal-list, filed with goons
    You should print my information, quote my rhyme
    And keep me in between these New York and L.A. Times
    I was the victim of society, it's 'Cris the menace
    With mo' shit out on the streets than evicted tenants
    WOOOOOOOO!
    [Chorus]
    [Interlude: Nas]
    Uhh.. uhh..
    (BRAVE-HEARTS.. BRAVE-HEARTS.. BRAVE-HEARTS.. BRAVE-HEARTS..)
    Jungle, Wiz, Nashawn!
    We got 'em scared look
    We got 'em scared they runnin
    [Verse Three: Nas]
    Yo, I grasp the ratchet, the blinker, the biscuit, the burner
    The heat, the toaster, the twister you meetin your owner
    The banger, the hammer, the flamers I aim at the cannons
    and can ya, manhandlin ya, you'll be famous like cancer do
    And cut, that's the end of your movie
    Pretendin you actin like you and your mens'll come shoot me
    My tennis shoes Gucci, old school pea soup green
    Jean Lee suit on Beaver, clicko champagne
    Friday the 13th my CD drop, I rhyme to more Base than EZ Rock
    I'm Jason, call up P.D. watch
    them Bravehearts, Jungle and Wiz and Nashawn
    Ill Will rasta Lake, never revealin his face on
    TV or pictures or even them niggaz
    Sorry that I made you wait long, glad them fakes gone
    [beat scratches out]
    WE SHOOTIN! Squeezin them triggers with Luda beside me
    Me and 'Kiss get Luniz of weed, set to Styles P.
    Tell him hold his head, God's Son got him we made y'all look
