Hi friends There’s plenty to keep you amused again in this week’s City Life so I hope you enjoy it. I mentioned last week about including some puzzles for the kids and our first offering of these is on page 39. Feel free to give me some feedback and let me know what your kids think.
Still on our Colour City promotion, we’ve extended the draw for the 3 night stay at Eagle View Retreat until the end of June. If you’d like to have a crack at winning that great prize and one of our weekly prizes, check out what you have to do on page 22. We have been given a bucket load of tickets for the Moscow Circus that’s coming to Orange shortly. Check this issue and our Facebook page for how to win one of these. Our Looney Lotto winner last week was Pamela Morris. This week’s lucky numbers are on page 24. Until next week, happy reading! bob@oclife.com.au

Todd Bryant from McDonalds called me last week with an exceptional offer involving our new Colour City coffee mugs. The mugs are expected to arrive late this week so I’ll hold off on that news until next week’s issue. In the meantime, if you like your daily cup of coffee, try a coffee from McDonalds this week then make sure you come back here next week to find out what Todd’s offering. It’s really good!

#VisitOrange We all know the great things about living in Orange, and sharing the best moments in town can now win you $500. MARYANNE TAOUK You don’t need to be a professional photographer to take part in the Orange City Council’s new tourism book.
Tourism managers are looking for the best photos of Orange locals enjoying everything the town has to offer. “We’re looking for photos through the eyes of the public,” said tourism officer Mitch
Brakenridge. “We’ve all seen the autumn shots of leaves, but we want to see what locals like.” The new publication being produced by the council will include a ‘Best Orange Moments’
section, which will see contributed photos that have been uploaded to the Visit Orange Facebook page or on Instagram with the hashtag #visit_orange. Categories include best selfie, overall best photo, top 10 people’s choice and photo of the week. Prizes will range from $500 cash to Camera House prints and gift vouchers. Mr. Brakenridge says the aim is to empower locals to have a say in the town’s tourism. The promotional publications will be available for tourism purposes and contain profiles on Orange characters and scenery, along with public shots.

I am all for this tough budget – I am not particularly enthused by politics and have no real leanings to either side of the political debate – but I do realise the government’s need to pay back the debt of the previous regime. But I was really struck by some news I read in Saturday’s Herald. At a time, when the entire country is being asked to tighten it’s belt and do it a little tougher – the government has committed $14 billion to new fighter jets. Just so that makes a little more sense that is $14,000,000,000. Prime Minister Tony Abbott has announced the purchase of 58 fighter planes, raising the Australian F-35 fleet to 72 by 2020. These are fighter jets, bought from the USA, made in the USA, from parts from the USA with ALL of the money going back to the USA. Seriously – do we really need 58 more fighter jets – are the Indonesians that likely to invade us from the north? The $14 billion acquisition will be one of Australia’s biggest-ever military spending commitments. In fact, the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter has been billed as the smartest fighter jet on the planet, designed to strike enemies in the air and on the ground without being detected by radar. The first two of Australia’s initial order of 14 F35s are expected to be delivered this year at a cost of just under US$130 million each. But, at a time when
RENAULT MASTER FROM $37,990 DRIVE AWAY†
FOR NEW SHORT WHEELBASE MANUAL
the country has racked up massive debt internationally, with an interest bill of close to $1 billion a month – do we really need to waste so much on planes most of us believe we really don’t need. $14 billion looks something like this: • Two billion proposed GP co-payments; • 280,000 extra new mums on paid parental leave (capped at $50,000 each) • 1.4 million people over 50 to get back into work with a $10,000 support grant Look, I am not for a second suggesting we shouldn’t be tightening our belts right now, we are on the verge of a GST increase, a rise in inflation and a national debt that could cripple our economy. But I do have issue with this seemingly lavish expense at a time when the government is looking at pruning $80 billion from its spending. I don’t know about you, but the prospect of pruning only $66 billion seems a hell of a lot more appealing, and we will have to stick it out with a few older fighter jets for a while. Last time I looked, we weren’t on the cusp of being invaded no matter how often we seem to annoy the billion Indonesians. So it stands to reason that these planes would be used by Australian forces in overseas conflicts – theatres of war many would argue we have no place being at in the first place and that many more would argue is contributing to the asylum seekers, this government seems so hell bent on keeping away from our shores. But that is another topic for another time.

Smoking is now officially banned at sporting events in NSW
MARYANNE TAOUK No game is too big or too small for the new ‘No Smoking’ laws to be ignored. From weekend soccer to the State of Origin all spectator sport areas have now been classified as smokefree zones. While smoking has been banned from many public eateries and shopping centres, Member for Orange Andrew Gee said people may not be aware that sports are now off-limits for smokers, with an on the spot $300 fine for breaching the law. “Sport is all about health and fitness and enjoying time with family and friends. These bans protect everyone from harmful second hand smoke,” Mr. Gee said. Mr. Gee said that there are no safe levels of exposure to tobacco smoke. “Families and children make up a large part of sporting crowds and for children in particular, inhaling second hand smoke is even more dangerous because their airways are
smaller and their immune systems less developed.” We asked the people of Orange what they thought about the new law. Rose: “You can’t ban smoking outside! I’m not a smoker but I think this is getting too extreme.” Kris: “It’s inevitable. Smoking is being phased out across the board, this is just another step in the process. Sure it’s a bit of a hassle for smokers, but it’s for their own good in the end!” Ben: “I’m indifferent to this whole thing. I’m a smoker, but I don’t like sports, and I don’t like smoking when kids are around. I think the fine will definitely stop people.” Beryl: “I don’t like smoking at any event. Why should I have to put up with that? Maybe if they has a smoker’s area, then they can do what they want away from everyone else.” Stephanie: “I think that second hand smoking is bad, but unless you can completely ban cigarettes it’s hard to govern. Can you stop someone smoking while they’re walking down the street?”

2015 ENROLMENT INTERVIEWS
MARYANNE TAOUK It’s not often that NRL stars visit the Central West, with the upcoming Sharks vs. Panthers club game at Carrington Park, Bathurst, locals are invited to a night with some of the Panthers greats. “Having a first grade game in the region is something that is important for the juniors and fans of the game,” said Bathurst Panthers manager John Fearnley. “You can see the action and don’t have to travel to the big cities.” The evening meet and greet will be hosted by Tim Gilbert and will include guest speakers Ivan Cleary, Panthers Coach, club legend Royce Simmons and Panthers CEO, Warren Wilson. “We don’t often get the opportunity to spend time with this calibre of speakers, and the juniors will get a chance to see the game up close,” said Mr. Fearnley. The Panthers visit to Bathurst will include a week full of events, from school visits and clinics to coach training. The sports dinner will be held at Bathurst Panthers on the 25th of July with tickets available from the sports club for $120 each or $1,000 for a table of 10.

‘Stronger, Smarter, Deadly’ StudentS from Glenroi HeiGHtS Public ScHool marcHed for reconciliation and community tHiS week, followinG national reconciliation week.
Maryanne Taouk Hundreds of students from kindergarten to year six, held hand-made placards and cheered, ‘Stronger, Smarter, Deadly’ as they marched the length of Glenroi Oval, marking two significant milestones in reconciliation history. The anniversary of the High Court Mabo decision and the successful referendum to recognise Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in the census may be the history of the week, but for the students it was a chance to explore their culture and be a part of the community. “All the posters the students are carrying, they’ve made, and they’ve invited their families so they have something to be proud of,” said teacher and march organiser, Kylie Greatbach. “To our school it’s important to engage the community- we’re not separate from the families around us, and reconciliation is about coming together.” Glenroi also invited Canobolas High School students to march with the school, along with members of the wider community. “I think this week is very important, to see different schools standing up and working for a better future is what it’s about, for me,” said Mrs Greatbach.

TAFE’s Flexible Training
Chris Whittaker, Peter Rickard, Scott Taylor, James Wolters and Brad Polak
Maryanne Taouk To help young apprentices maximise their schooling, TAFE will now allow a streamlined process to learn additional trades. The simple five-step program is seen as an easier way to transition into further studies or certification for prior learning. Apprentices for Whittaker Contracting Diesel Plant Repair, Scott Taylor and James Wolters, have used the new accessible courses to enhance their work duties. “I think that the more you know, the
better,” said James. “To be able to do multiple jobs when you’re out, knowing you’re qualified, it makes a lot of jobs easier,” said Scott. TAFE Western’s Director of Business Capability, Brad Polak said the new steps to additional TAFE qualifications and recognition of prior learning is to allow apprentices to transition into further training or the workforce. “Training can take place on site or on campus. The focus is flexibility of delivery so the staff can train at times that suit the business.”
Mr. Polak and Sandra Gray, TAFE’s Product and Sales coordinator says the top reasons for businesses to offer the additional training includes ensuring consistent services, developing new systems and processes and providing staff opportunities; something owner and operator of Whittaker Contracting, Chris Whittaker, believes is important. “We strongly believe in continuous improvement and personal development of individuals within their chosen field.”

SUMA PARK DAM SAFETY UPGRADE
Divas To Dazzle orange
The announcement comes on top of $18.2 million already provided by the current NSW Government for the Macquarie River to Orange pipeline.
The upgrade of Suma Park Dam will involve raising the wall by one metre to increase capacity by 10 per cent and reinforce the dam to withstand a one in one million year flood event. The NSW Government will contribute financial assistance of 20 per cent of the total project, which is currently estimated to cost $18.94 million. I’ve been a strong advocate of raising the dam wall for a long time and many in the community have seen this as a common sense measure that is long overdue.

The RMS has floated the idea to see what the public think about it. I have to say I’m not a supporter of the concept. When RMS first told me of the idea they were going to run up the flag pole to see who saluted, I have to confess I smiled and told them they were very courageous (that would be “courageous” in the best traditions of “Yes Minister”!). But let’s be clear about the issue. Nothing is going to be forced on to the Council or the community against their wishes. That’s why RMS has raised it with Orange City Council – to engage in a constructive conversation with them to improve pedestrian safety. It’s a commendable approach. This is a community issue that should be decided by consensus and constructive engagement. So if it’s not going to be a fence, what other ideas can Council, the community and RMS come up with to improve safety pedestrian safety in Summer Street? It’s a conversation worth having.

Send in the Clowns! THE GREAT Moscow ciRcus is bAck, biGGER And bETTER THAn EvER! MARYANNE TAOUK The Great Moscow Circus first performed to gobsmacked Australian audiences in 1965 returning every three to five years with a brand new show and even more death-defying stunts. While the circus boasts an array of high tech lighting and elaborate costumes, it is the world-class performers, they say, have crowds coming back each time they visit. “We are on our way!” said Suzie, a representative from the Circus. “For the last 3 years we’ve travelled 65,000kms, showing to over 900,000 people, and raised nearly $500,000 in support of charities in Australia.” The circus has donated 500 tickets to charities in town, with those
expressing interest sharing in the ticket sale proceeds. Suzie says the Moscow Circus prides itself on charity involvement, and what she describes as ‘edge of the seat’ entertainment. “Gone are the traditional exotic animals,” said Suzie. “We have just a posse of clever miniature horses, presented by our very own up and coming star Dylan, just 12 years old.” With Dylan’s brother Dalton in the ‘Globe of Death’ as a daredevil rider, the circus continues to be a family affair. The circus is set to reach Orange on the 18th until the 29th of June at Sir Jack Brabham Park. Tickets are available at www.ticketdirect.com. au or by contacting 0429 667 269 or 1300 798 550.

Renowned illustrations on display
The Friends of the Botanic Gardens are inviting you to get a rare look at a collection of works from one of Australia’s premier natural history illustrators. ‘Plant disease illustrations’ by Margaret Senior will be on display at the Orange Botanic Gardens ‘Botanic Room’ from Saturday the 7th and is running for ten days. You may think that Seniors ‘plant disease’ art might be visually unappealing, but these illustrations are anything but; with vibrant colours and fine detail capturing beauty in unlikely places. Dr Murray Fletcher said the works are not only exceptional in their artistry, but also for educational purposes. “These coloured illustrations were commissioned by the Division of Science
Services of the then NSW Department of Agriculture in 1964. Margaret Senior was originally commissioned to produce 24 coloured paintings of plant diseases and other aspects of biology at the princely sum of £21 each,” he explained. “She eventually produced more than 80 superb illustrations which are still used in publications produced by NSW Department of Primary Industries today.” Dr Fletcher said it was a treat to be able to showcase these works, as they are rarely seen by the public. “I believe they have only been on display once before, at the State Archive exhibition in Sydney, so we are honoured
to get this chance to showcase.” The Friends of the Botanic Garden are inviting everyone to come and enjoy the works. “The exhibition will appeal not only to lovers of art, but also people who enjoy gardening and growing their own produce. You may even be able to spot some of the plant diseases you’re having trouble with!” The exhibition will take place in the ‘Botanic Room’ at the Orange Botanic Gardens. Opening Night is Saturday 7th June at 5pm. It will then be open from 10am-2pm on weekdays, and 10am-4pm on weekends.

PAUL TIERNEY
Addicted … to junk I’d like to think that at 47 years of age, I’d have dealt with my addiction to fatty and sugary foods – not even close. When I was a kid, I loved lollies. All kinds of lollies, really, but my absolute favourite were called Jelly Tots. They were similar to soft jubes - little jellies covered in sugar. We were very good friends with the lady who ran the corner store near my nan’s house – so there was always a treat to be had when a visit to the grandparents happened, which was very often in those days. I think that’s where my addiction to all things junk started. Flavoured milk was a big one for me when I went off to UNI. Like most people in their late teens and early twenties, a beer and a late night were also high on the list of priorities, but chocolate milk and raspberry flavoured bullets kept me going when the pressure was on during the UNI years. It was also at this time that I first found out what a ‘Tim Tam Slam’ was – and I think that led me to becoming addicted to coffee as well. I’m a bit hyperactive, a trait I thought I’d ‘grow out of’ as I got into my 20s, then my 30s and then my 40s. Maybe I’ll lose the ants from my pants when I hit the big five-o in just over 2 years time… Maybe not. I can definitely feel the buzz, or the kick, or whatever you want to call it that a sugar hit gives me when I’m in need of a pick up. There are
many I know who either are not in need of the bite that comes from eating a Krispy Kreme Donut (mmmmmm …) or the almost instant gratification that comes from a can of soft drink or a coffee. Yes, I’m aware I’m not doing healthy things to my body at all, and that aaa the consumption of sugar, fat and fizz is in direct contrast to all the running and fitness I’ve been getting into. But like the characters from Star Wars who fall for the Jedi Mind Tricks, the lure of the quick fix is too much for me. I am weak – I lack discipline – and for those who’ve been in my office, you’ll have worked out that the jelly beans in the bowl on the table are really for me to eat, as opposed to the pretence that they are there to put visitors at ease. I drove to Coonabarabran to watch my eldest play rugby last week. I’d prepared for the long journey by making an iPod playlist and buying a couple of bags of treats for the journey. Leaving Millthorpe before 7am, it wasn’t long before I’d stopped in Orange and purchased a coffee, and I opened the rather large packet of Musk Sticks on the way down Summer Street. I knew I was in a bit of trouble when I reached into the bottom of the bag to find it empty – and I had yet to go through Molong! A packet of cookies purchased in Dubbo (with another coffee) got me to Coona without the need for more damage, either to my arteries or my wallet. The road trip home from the rugby saw me again venture to a fast food outlet to stop my cravings. I justified the ‘need’ for more fatty food with the excuse in my brain that I was driving 700km in one day, and I needed to be ‘sharp’. I hope my doctor doesn’t read this – I guess it’s time to curb my junk food ways.

If only we could sue them? In the business world, if you do anything that could damage another business through unfair means, chances are you could be sued. If in public life, you do anything to defame or damage a person’s reputation, chances are you’ll get sued for that too. So why can’t we sue the mainstream media for continually presenting “news” in such a fashion, that could be argued is simply trashing our nation. I for one, am totally sick and tired of seeing and hearing so called ‘news’ every night on the television that
has been fashioned simply to stir people up. Who cares if Tony Abbott winked at a radio jock? Who cares if one lady out of millions is going to be disadvantaged by the doctor gap payment because she’s required to go the doctor three times a week and requires a lot of medication? I feel for this lady and assume that cases like hers would be addressed. My point is, by holding this lady up as an example against the new fee is a bit of a stretch by any standards and when put all over the news, of course people are going to be stirred against the fee and the government.
These are just two examples of what we’re being fed every night and it’s hardly helpful. Personally, I believe that in all likelihood, the way the media reports news these days, and especially anything to do with the government, is damaging our nation in ways that we may not realise. There appears to be no balance in the reporting and trivia is getting more airtime than important issues. Mark my words, if the media isn’t reigned in to a more responsible level of reporting, sooner or later we’ll pay for this and it won’t be pretty.
letters to the editor BRAVO! Dear Sir, Those who attended the performance by Critical Stages and The Shift Theatre production of ‘The Girls in Grey’, last Saturday evening at the Orange Civic Theatre can only acclaim the quality of the performance. All aspects; stage, setting, clarity of the actors and their presentation have to be admired.
During the production it would have been easy to hear “a pin drop”. Of most note was the absence of any microphone or amplification except for the sounds; the effects of which would be experienced, while the World War 1 nurses (played by the actors) were on stage. It has been customary for me to carry ear plugs to each performance we attend at the theatre. From experience the volume of sound, which it appears has to be
as loud as possible and exorbitant, simply creates distortion and a ringing in the ears on leaving the theatre. “Ringing” is recognised as being a symptom of damage to the hearing. In other situations, ear protection has to be worn. One thing Saturday night did prove, is that Orange Civic Theatre’s acoustics are excellent.

LAUGHTIME! TIME LAUGH One day at a busy airport, the passengers on a commercial airliner are seated, waiting for the cockpit crew to show up so they can get under way. The pilot and co-pilot finally appear in the rear of the plane, and begin walking up to the cockpit through the center aisle. Both appear to be blind. The pilot is using a white cane, bumping into passengers right and left as he stumbles down the aisle, and the co-pilot is using a guide dog. Both have their eyes covered with huge sunglasses. At first the passengers do not react; thinking that it must be some sort of practical joke. However, after a few minutes the engines start spooling up and the airplane, starts moving down the runway. The passengers look at each other with some uneasiness, whispering among themselves and looking desperately to the flight attendants for reassurance. Then the airplane starts accelerating rapidly and people begin panicking. Some passengers are praying, and as the plane gets closer and closer to the end of the runway, the voices are becoming more and more hysterical. Finally, when the airplane has less than 20 feet of runway left, there is a sudden change in the pitch of the shouts as everyone screams at once, and at the very last moment the

airplane lifts off and is airborne. Up in the cockpit, the co-pilot breathes a sigh of relief and turns to the Captain: “You know, one of these days the passengers aren’t going to scream, and we are gonna get killed!” ****
My grandson was visiting one day when he asked, “Grandma, do you know how you and God are alike?” I mentally polished my halo while I asked, “No, how are we alike?” You’re both old,” he replied. ****
Every year, Smitty and his wife Martha went to the State Fair. And every year, Smitty would say, “Martha, I’d like to ride in that there airplane.” And every year, Martha would reply, “I know, Smitty, but that airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars.” This one year Smitty and Martha went to the fair and Smitty said, “Martha, I’m 71 years old. If I don’t ride that airplane this year I may never get another chance. “ Martha replied, “Smitty, that there airplane ride costs ten dollars, and ten dollars is ten dollars.” The pilot overheard them and said, “Folks, I’ll
make you a deal. I’ll take you both up for a ride. If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say one word, I won’t charge you, but if you say one word it’s ten dollars.” Smitty and Martha agreed, and up they went. The pilot performed all kinds of twists and turns, rolls and dives, but not a word is heard. He even does a nose dive, pulling up 15 feet above the ground, but still not a word. They land and the pilot turns to Smitty, “By golly, I did everything I could think of to get you to yell out, but you didn’t.” Smitty replied, “Well, I was gonna say something when Martha fell out, ...but ten dollars is ten dollars!” **** A fellow was very much in love with a beautiful girl. One day she told him that the next day was her birthday. He told her he would send her a bouquet of roses... one for each year of her life. That evening he called the local florist and ordered twenty-one roses with instructions that they be delivered first thing the next morning. As the florist was preparing the order, he decided that since the young man was such a good customer, he would put an extra dozen roses in the bouquet. The fellow never did find out what made the
young girl so angry with him. **** A big, burly man visited the pastor’s home and asked to see the minister’s wife, a woman well known for her charitable impulses. “Madam,” he said in a broken voice, “I wish to draw your attention to the terrible plight of a poor family in this district. The father is dead, the mother is too ill to work, and the nine children are starving. They are about to be turned into the cold, empty streets unless someone pays their rent, which amounts to $400.” “How terrible!” exclaimed the preacher’s wife. “May I ask who you are?” The sympathetic visitor applied his handkerchief to his eyes. “I’m the landlord,” he sobbed. **** I never go to church,” boasted a wandering member. “Perhaps you have noticed that pastor?” “Yes, I have noticed that,” said the pastor. “Well, the reason I don’t go is because there are so many hypocrites there.” “Oh, don’t let that keep you away,” replied the pastor with a smile. “There’s always room for one more.”

4loor celebrates show 200!
BM BM
4 on the 4loor or ‘4loor’ as it is known by many, has become somewhat of an institution in our humble town, with the first show taking place way back in may 1998.
That’s 16 years of supporting local musicians and live music lovers; no small feat in modern nightlife happenings. A countless number of musicians have got their start on the 4loor stage at the Vic Hotel, with many going on to bigger things. It certainly is a great initiative for our town! Our hats are off to everyone involved, especially organiser Jon Carter for keeping the show on the road and the Vic for supporting live and local music! To celebrate, there is a big line-up for this Saturdays show, with some performers who played the very first 4loor back in May 1998, including Steven Holmes, Basford, Ash Hayllen, Rob Carroll, Amber, Steve Rutherford, Bec, and Ado.

HOW TO TRAIN A DRAGON 2 It’s been five years since Hiccup and Toothless successfully united dragons and vikings on the island of Berk. The now inseparable pair journey through the skies, charting unmapped territories and exploring new worlds...
The epic action of ‘Edge of Tomorrow’ unfolds in a near future in which an alien race has hit the Earth in an unrelenting assault, unbeatable by any military unit in the world. Lt. Col. Bill Cage (Cruise) is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously dropped into what amounts to a suicide mission. Killed within minutes, Cage now finds himself inexplicably thrown into a time loop—forcing him to live out the same brutal combat over and over, fighting and dying again…and again.

What is shaping our behaviour? When you’re living in Orange you come to expect certain things. You know that every year the town changes into a flaming sunset of colour as Autumn is heralded. It signals the need to pull out the Winter woolies and prepare for the coming cold weather. We are unconsciously shaped by our surroundings and we naturally adapt for our own comfort. What we wear, where we choose to go, even our mood is so easily influenced by the circumstances in which we find ourselves. Interestingly we do it in other areas of our lives as well. We adapt our
personality to fit the crowds we are with. We can even change who we are depending on who others expect us to be. Jesus was always firmly grounded in who he was – the Son of God. Whether he was enjoying a meal with friends, facing temptation in the wilderness, being made an outcast by the authorities, or being hung upon the cross, he was steadfast in his approach towards others. Is my behavior and attitude shaped by the people around me or by the knowledge that I am God’s child? Jesus’ example is both an encouragement and a challenge. “The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever”. (1 John 2:17)

A buzzing good time! CHRIS BENNETTS Orange City Rugby’s Ladies day was a great success on the weekend, not only did first grade defeat Bathurst Bulldogs 22-10, but through various fundraising activities the club and its supporters were able to raise a great deal of money. After the match, players and fans gathered in the Waratahs Sports Club to watch local lady Ashlea Codner raise a whopping $7,600 by shaving off her long blond hair as part of ‘The World’s Greatest Shave’. Ashlea had plenty of support from family and friends who cheered her on as she went under the clippers. Ashlea said she was overwhelmed by the support. “I’d just like to say an epic thank you for the all the fundraising and the support, I’m completely chuffed! Thank you so much!” she smiled.

JUST FOR A LAUGH! A film crew was on location deep in the desert. One day an Old Indian went up to the director and said, “Tomorrow rain.” The next day it rained. A week later, the Indian went up to the director and said, “Tomorrow storm.” The next day there was a hailstorm. “This Indian is incredible,” said the director. He told his secretary to hire the Indian to predict the weather. However, after several successful predictions, the old Indian didn’t show up for two weeks. Finally the director sent for him. “I have to shoot a big scene tomorrow,” said the director, “and I’m depending on you. What will the weather be like?” The Indian shrugged his shoulders. “Don’t know,” he said. “Radio is broken.”

Brass gets a boost CHRIS BENNETTS A generous donation will ensure that kids in Orange will have access to music. Kleenheat Gas has donated $5,000 to the Salvation Army’s ‘Just Brass’ program as part of their community sponsorship initiative. Greg Saunders from the Salvation Army said he was over the moon with the donation. “This money will go towards the purchase of roughly ten new instruments and various other pieces of musical equipment, which in turn will enable us to take on 10 to 15 new students next semester.” The ‘Just Brass’ program works closely with schools, families, and communities to ensure that all children are able to enjoy music and explore their musical potential. They provide programs for beginners, juniors, and intermediate level players ensuring that a student’s current skill level is catered for. “We have 31 students enrolled this term, and thanks to this donation we are aiming to reach roughly 40 students next term,” Greg explained. “We sincerely thank Kleenheat for helping us expand the program.” Geoff Hill from Kleenheat Gas said he enjoys being able to make these donations on behalf of Kleenheat. “It really is a privilege to be able to support great community programs like this, especially when it helps young children develop skills,” Geoff said. “I like getting out and meeting the people that the donations will help!” For more information on the ‘Just Brass’ program call the Salvation Army Office on 6362 1870.

Orange Blood Donor Centre manager, Gail Turnbull, commended the teachers on their efforts and urged other groups and individuals in the community to do the same. “We are constantly in need of donors, especially in the winter months when donation drop slightly due to people catching flus and colds.

Australia’s Sam Soliman won the IBF middleweight boxing title with a unanimous points win over Germany’s Felix Sturm, in Krefeld, Germany last Sunday. The 40-year-old Melburnian showed enormous reserves of fitness to dominate the fight. “He won, clearly,” Sturm conceded after the fight. “He kept moving, he was hard to hit.” It was the sweetest win of all for 17-year professional Soliman, who outpointed 35-year-old Sturm in Germany in February 2013. However, the German boxing commission later altered that result
to a no-contest after announcing Soliman returned a positive drug test for an illegal stimulant. His B sample later tested clean for any prohibited substances. That was a non-title bout, but with the belt on the line this time, Soliman produced an emphatic performance. He comprehensively outworked the defending champion, landing a lot more punches. Soliman’s win has set up a potential all Australian matchup with former IBF champion Daniel Geale, who was the next highest ranked contender behind the Victorian.

LeBron James and Chris Bosh scored 25 points each as the two-time defending champion Miami Heat clobbered the Indiana Pacers 117-92 Friday to reach their fourth consecutive NBA finals. Miami used a game six blowout to join an elite NBA group by becoming the first team to reach the championship four straight times since the Boston Celtics did it from 1984-87. James also had six assists and shot eight from 12 from the field in 32 minutes of playing time for Miami who used an emphatic victory to claim the Eastern Conference final series 4-2. “We are going to four straight finals and we will never take this for granted,” James said. “We will celebrate this for sure and when we start getting ready for
and didn’t finish.” Glenn Turner put the Kookaburras ahead in the 25th minute before three goals in a four-minute spell in the second. Eddie Ockenden doubled the lead on 50 minutes and Jamie Dwyer put his name on the score sheet a couple of minutes later. Turner added his second goal when converting a penalty corner to extend the lead to 4-0. Australia now sit top of Pool A after Belgium
had a last-minute 3-2 win against India and Spain held England to a 1-1 draw. The Australian women conceded an early field goal from Cheon Eunbi but came back to score three to win the game. Emily Hurtz equalised before Anna Flanagan struck twice to turn the score around. Cheon Seul Ki’s goal on 67 minutes came too late for Korea to claim a draw. “We knew before we started the game and the tournament that the match against Korea would be a very difficult one,” coach Adam Commens said. “I thought that we built into the game and throughout the second half we played some
the finals we will lock in.” James regrouped in a huge way after coming off one of the worst offensive performances of his brilliant career in game five, where he battled foul trouble and finished with a career playoff low seven points on just two-of-10 shooting. “We are competing against the (Michael) Jordan of our era, the (Chicago) Bulls of our era and you have to tip your hats to them,” said Pacers coach Frank Vogel. The Heat are the third team in NBA history to make the finals four straight years. The Celtics made a staggering 10 in a row from 1957-66, then the Los Angeles Lakers did it from 1982-85. Boston was also the last team to do it, beginning in 1984.
good hockey. “During that period we controlled the match well and I was pleased with the efforts of our players to take their opportunities well. “The last five or six minutes were a little disappointing, to let them back into the game, but ultimately we got the three points and that’s what we were after.”

The Penske file (Legendary American race car team owner Roger Penske has confirmed his keen interest in entering Australia’s V8 Supercar category next year. Penske is looking at buying or partnering an existing V8 team, with Dick Johnson Racing featuring in takeover talks. Penske has approached former V8 champion Marcos Ambrose, who is in his ninth season of American stock car racing, to return to lead the proposed Australian expansion of Penske’s racing empire. The 77-year-old tycoon, known as “The Captain”, owns Team Penske – one of the most successful racing organisations in American motor racing history – and heads Penske Corporation, a multi-billion-dollar, Detroit-based international automotive and transport conglomerate with Australian interests. Penske is an icon of motor racing in the US, fielding winning teams in a variety of championships for almost 50 years. He is the most successful team owner in IndyCar history with a record 12 series titles and 15 victories in the Indianapolis 500, another all-time mark. “We’re very interested in V8 Supercar,” he told Fairfax Media at the Detroit IndyCar Grand Prix, which is run by a division of Penske Corporation. “Our goal – if we’re going to do it – is to go (into V8 racing) next year. “A couple of teams have talked to us, so we have some things in the works. I think it’d be good.” Penske has been linked to bids for Dick Johnson Racing and Ford Performance Racing, but recent speculation has suggested DJR is the primary target.
Brazilian hopes Australia midfielder James Holland says Monday’s match against Clube Parana, a Brazilian second division side, will form a key part of the Socceroos preparation for their opening World Cup clash with Chile. “It’s really important,” he said. “I think our coach (Ange Postecoglou) is still trying to instil his philosophy and how he wants to play. The fact that we all play at different clubs we need that game time to help instil that philosophy in our game. This game is important for sure.” Holland, 25, is hopeful he will make the cut for the 23-man squad, saying there’s no point in being in Brazil if you don’t think you can. “I think every player has to believe in themselves, that’s natural,” he said. “If you don’t believe in
yourself you won’t get very far, I think that’s important.’’ Holland’s move to Austria, Vienna has developed his game - he has played Champions League soccer this season - and given him the chance to stake his claim on the international stage. But, he believes, there is more to come. He argues that Australia’s inexperience and rawness can work in its favour. “I think when you have a young team you have an ambitious and a hungry team so I think that can be the the difference,” he said. “I’m not sure if experience matters. If you’re good enough you’re old enough. It doesn’t matter how old you are. “Anything’s possible and that’s the mindset we want to go in with.”

Julian’s big fight
stedo@oclife.com.au
recently undergone major is leg, but is still battling with cer. With all funds depleted ungMy family provide for, are biggesttohate at the moment stories like the oneayou’re about ue has organised benefit to read. proceeds going to Julian’s family. JAMIE STEDMAN
I know hate seems a bit harsh but that’s how I feel about cancer. If I could use expletives, this piece would be riddled with them. What is most unfortunate is that stories like this seem to be coming around way too often these days. If I never have to do a piece about raising money for some poor bastard again, it’ll be too soon! However the world just doesn’t work like that so here goes… Julian Reynolds is one big unit. For a little fella like me he’s practically a giant; matter of fact the last time I saw him, he’d pulled up in my driveway, unfolded himself from his tiny car like a Swiss army pocket knife and my young fella yelled out “dad, there’s a giant person here”. I don’t think my son thought humans could get that big! This was about 18 months ago. Julian had popped round to give me back some tools or a
mower or something he had borrowed as he was heading to Bonville Golf Club to take up residency there as the teaching Pro. He was leaving Duntryleague behind after a relatively short time, to be closer to his young family’s extended family. We stayed in touch, he’s a good chap, and then through a common friend I heard that Big J had gotten some pretty ordinary news. Cancer. The details are pointless, the disease doesn’t care where it hits or how hard so why should we? However the prognosis is as bad as it gets. Julian is 28. His young bride is 24. His two boys, Tiger and Rocko (yeah, he likes his golf ) are 4 and 1. It sucks! So how can you help? Well the staff and Pro’s at both Duntryleague and Wentworth Golf Clubs have gotten together and organised a date for a golf day as a way of raising some much needed funds for Julian and his young family.
63613575
This is when I am most proud of this place; we come together to help out one of our own. Julian wasn’t here for long but he left an impression. Orange embraced him. So on Friday the 27th June, Duntryleague will be the venue. The day will be a four-person Ambrose event. There will be numerous prizes available on the day but that’s not really the point is it? It’s $100 a person and promises to be a fantastic day, and rain, hail or shine the day will proceed! You don’t have to be a golfer to get involved; there will be auctions and raffles going on throughout the evening from about 4pm. The beers will be cold and the fire warm so come on down. There are so many businesses already involved; too many to mention here, multiple golf courses
from across the state have donated tee times, such is the esteem in which Julian is held. The day is not just about raising funds for Julian and his family; it’s about raising awareness; Julian is 28! No-one expects cancer but it doesn’t care, nor does it discriminate. An account has been set-up where you can donate. BSB 082774 Acc. No. 829731593 Acc. Name – Orange Golf Club. Ref – Julian Reynolds If you want any further information or want to donate time, money or goods, please contact either the Duntryleague Pro-shop on 6362 4072 or the Wentworth Pro-shop on 6361 4571.

My take on it.. Good
Well, you knew I was going to go there… so how GREAT was the Origin match? Of course the result went a long way to making it great but the match itself was one of the all-time best. I was exhausted after the game ended and all I did was watch! NSW Coach Laurie Daley hailed it the greatest State of Origin triumph of his entire career and a win that would unite an entire state as the Blues pulled off upset for the ages. And who could argue. The heroics shown from both camps will be spoken about for years to come. With several stars playing “busted” and likely to miss game two, the Blues somehow secured their first win at Suncorp Stadium in a live Origin match since 2005 to move one step closer to ending Queensland’s eight-year dynasty. “For the boys to do what they did under those conditions, I am one extremely happy coach and I am certain a whole state would be happy and I think this win would probably united us more than ever before.” Daley said. If the Morris twins were Queenslanders they’d have their statues up already at Suncorp Stadium. Throughout the game the message kept going down to Brett Morris from the Blues coaching box to give them “five more minutes”. That five more minutes never came. He finished the game with a trysaving tackle on Darius Boyd. Then we saw the image of his brother Josh, the ligaments in his knee torn and the doctors checking him on the sideline, he interrupted his own injury treatment to hop up off the sidelines and chase down a

runaway Greg Inglis to add to his already impressive defensive display. Some stats for those that like them: NSW players made a record nine try-saving tackles, with Hayne and second-rower Beau Scott producing two each. Gallen, Reynolds, winger Brett Morris and interchange forwards Luke Lewis and Tony Williams each produced a trysaving tackle as Queensland had ‘‘all of the good ball, all of the running, all of the momentum, the crowd and the referees’ calls go their way’’ in the second half. The Maroons completed 17 of their 21 sets in possession in the second half compared with NSW completing 12 of 15 sets, the Blues had to make 188 tackles to 140 by Queensland. Daley spent the last six minutes fuming in the coach’s box as the Maroons had three consecutive sets on the NSW line following decisions by the match officials to rule halfback Trent Hodkinson had lost the ball when it appeared to have been stripped and to give the ball back to Justin Hodges after stopping play to allow Billy Slater to receive treatment for a shoulder injury. I’ve never seen that in a game before unless the injured player was going to be directly in the way of the play; it appeared an interesting decision by referee Hayne. To rub salt in, Instead of Hodges playing the ball on the left side of the field where play had been halted, he was allowed to hand it to Greg Inglis and run back to his right centre position so he could receive the ball again on the next play. It was outrageous. There were of course some ugly incidents arising from the match. With the standout being when Josh Reynolds was placed on
June 5–11, 2014
report after a dangerous lifting tackle on Queensland’s Brent Tate which sparked tensions between both sides. Reynolds has since had the charges downgraded and is now free to play in game two. The decision attracting much outrage north of the border; but what’s new there? Everything is always someone else’s fault if you’re a Queenslander. It’s probably NSW’s fault that the bananas are always bent! There was the Papalii hit on Gallen which, for the record, I thought he was entitled to make. Then there was the Gallen hit on Slater. Again, he was probably entitled to make that tackle. Cameron Smith played injured, CherryEvans was damaged and Watmough could be out for a number of weeks with a torn Bicep muscle. Daley told his players the win was one of the most courageous in Origin history because of what they overcame in those dying minutes but he reminded them the job was not finished. ‘‘One more win and the series is ours,’’ Daley said. Can’t wait for game two!
Bad
Unfortunately there’s not a lot of ‘BAD’ stuff going on in sport this week! I say that with my tongue firmly planted in my cheek. How refreshing it actually is for once, to have to struggle to fill this section. Topically the Josh Reynolds tackle and it’s outcome is probably getting most air-time but the way HE is being blasted in the Qld media is pretty ordinary. He made a tackle (which, by the way, Beau Scott was a big part of) that wasn’t great. In the current environment he probably should have got two weeks at least. But he went to the judiciary to plead his case and those three gentlemen decided to downgrade the charge.
Reynolds had nothing to do with that! To come out on the front page calling him a “grub” and blanking out other headlined swear words just makes me shake my head in amazement. If the shoe was on the other foot, we NewSouthWelshmen would be banned from entering the sunshine state indefinitely. It’s time the Queenslanders stopped playing the poor little brother card. And can you imagine the utter outrage if a Blues player had of come out in the media and told the nation how scared he was when he was in the air. I’m not saying he wasn’t but to comment on it seemed in bad taste. Tate claimed his legs were shaking for ten minutes after that incident but he seemed to play very well whilst they were shaking so uncontrollably. There is no conspiracy, no-one is out to get you, and if you actually tried daylight savings along with the rest of humanity you may find you actually enjoy some aspects of it! You bent the rules for Greg Inglis. You bent the rules for Adrian Lam. Toni Carroll was a Kiwi international. The 100th Origin game was played in your fine state only because you finally decided to recognise the ‘exhibition’ match that was played in Los Angeles. Conveniently this then meant that the game fell in Queensland. Lucky that! I’m a bit sick of it; you bend the rules and then sook when we attempt to do it. You get all the good calls throughout the match and then carry on like six year olds when Reynolds’ charge get downgraded. Get over yourselves Qld, I’m over you!

A British newspaper alleged last week that a former top Qatari football (Soccer) official paid $US5 million ($5.3 million) to get support for the emirate’s campaign to
host the 2022 World Cup. The Sunday Times said it had obtained millions of emails and other documents relating to alleged payments made by Mohamed Bin Hammam, the then FIFA executive member for Qatar. It alleged that Bin Hammam, who is also the ex-Asian Football Confederation (AFC) president, used slush funds to pay out the cash to top football officials to win a “groundswell” of support for Qatar’s World Cup bid. Now all this is a bit ugly isn’t it? At the time of writing none of the allegations against Bin Hammam had been confirmed or denied but the biggest thing I’ve found from reading about it all is that no-one seems surprised!
It is as if the paying of officials to get their votes is an accepted, if unspoken, rule of business. The decision to give the World Cup to Qatar, a country with little football history, provoked widespread condemnation across the football world, particularly over health concerns for leading players forced to play in the desert nation’s stifling summer heat. Former FIFA president Sepp Blatter said in May that it was a mistake to choose Qatar to host the 2022 World Cup because of the country’s sweltering summertime climate. The Times also quoted the Qatari committee behind the World Cup bid as denying that Bin Hammam played any secret role in their campaign, or had any knowledge of the alleged payments. Well they would, wouldn’t they? We have not heard the last of this and we have to wonder how deep the corruption runs. It certainly casts a horrible shadow with kick-off in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil only moments away

RUGBY UNION
Waratahs are the real deal For a second week running they sit in the top two on the competition ladder, their goal achieved with three games in hand. But Cheika was not getting carried away. “It is so tight and you can slip from anywhere,” he said. “What we’ve done is put pressure on everyone now to keep performing because the more rounds [you play] with other teams behind you, you’re a chance. “We’re in there but we have big games against the Brumbies and Highlanders and one against our old enemy, Queensland away from home, so it’s going to be a great three weeks when we get back.” Polota-Nau will require major dental work, while Dennis was taken to hospital for his cut, which he incurred before scoring the try that sparked the Waratahs’ comeback. Halfback Nick Phipps was voted players’ player for yet another career-best performance that was as varied as it was assured. Kurtley Beale and Bernard Foley stepped up to the mark set by All Blacks No.10, Aaron Cruden and again played decisive roles in the Waratahs’ sophisticated attack. Their performances bode well for the Wallabies’ campaign against the French next week.

For the first time since 2010 the Waratahs were able to win in New Zealand. That they did it with a win over defending champions the Chiefs, made it all the more satisfying. Tatafu Polota-Nau lost his two front teeth in the first 10 minutes and Dave Dennis picked up a cut to his knee described as the worst his coach Michael Cheika had ever seen. Surely they can now consider themselves title contenders. Cheika lauded his players’ belief and work ethic against the reigning champions. “There is a lot of satisfaction there, I don’t know about the most [satisfying], you never know, but I am very proud of them,” he said. “It was a really hard-working effort, they just kept getting back up and there were some guys in a lot of pain and discomfort, and they were comfortable playing in that discomfort zone, which is a good sign for us. “But there is still so much to do - we have another massive game coming up after the break.” The Waratahs have three more games to play in the regular season, including home games against the Highlanders and Brumbies and a final trip up to Brisbane to face the Reds.
Hey hey everyone. I just love being home and I get almost a month at home before I have to jet set back to the USA for a huge bowling convention called 'Bowl Expo'. I plan to spend my time at home wisely. By wisely, I mean play as much as I can with Aria and Hugo :) They really are the best parts of me and the best parts of Kimberly all rolled into little human beings. My time with them only strengthens my passion to make every trip away worth it! I always give it everything I have on the lanes. The sacrifice I make, to leave them to compete, is huge. This sacrifice is all the push I need to get me to give 100% to every shot I bowl. My successes are just as much for Kimberly, Aria and Hugo as they are for me! I'm not sure I could do what I do without their support! Love you three very much! Till next time Orange, be good Orange. Cheers Jason
Dale Harding is a pretty quiet guy. Therefore it’s not that surprising that his latest achievement went by relatively unnoticed. Last week Dale made his first grade debut as a Referee in Group 10 when Bathurst St. Pats played the Orange Hawks. Not that big a deal I hear you say, well Dale has now refereed first grade in both Rugby League and Rugby Union! And that is a bit of a big deal as far as I’m concerned. Dale began his refereeing career in Union in “Geez, I dunno Stedo either 2001 or 2002”. Travelling to Sydney each weekend to hone his skills, eventually making his First grade Division 1 Subbies debut in “probably ‘06 or ‘07, I don’t do dates, mate”. Dale started reffing League in 2013 “just for the new challenge”. “I’m still finding my feet Stedo. I’m finding league a bit harder than I thought I would. Union seemed to come more naturally to me, but I’m getting there.” “My biggest fear is signalling a Union call in League; I’ll cop a hiding” Dale laughed. I’ve done 100% no research on the matter whatsoever but I don’t imagine there’s too many other people that have refereed at First grade level in opposing codes! Great work Dale, and good luck for the future.
