CONTRIBUTING to community projects every year, the Into Our Hands Foundation is set to expand and help even more people in 2017 and beyond, thanks to the efforts of a number of civic minded North East residents. Serving rural communities within the Alpine, Wangaratta and Indigo municipalities, the foundation is an organisation that enables local people to shape the future of their communities by directing resources (money, time and talent) to support worthwhile local initiatives. Initially established as a way to directly help people in fire affected communities, the foundation is now looking to expand into a number of community initiatives. One such keen foundation member is Myrtleford woman Katrina Bendeman, who fell in love with the sense of community in Myrtleford since moving to the area almost three years ago. “It’s been the most amazing time,” Katrina said. “There’s something really different about the people around here.” She has been an executive officer with the foundation since May 2015, having previously lived in the Kinglake area and helping support that area’s continued redevelopment after Black Saturday. Katrina said the foundation is aimed at “enhancing communities through strength, cohesiveness and wellbeing” and she is passionate about people being able to bolster local communities and causes by “giving where they live”. Among the many programs the foundation has helped support in recent months has been a partnership with the Tour of Bright event to help them employ local youth, and helping passionate locals raise money to weatherproof and preserve the Mt Buffalo Chalet. continued page |

MONEY MATTERS

GARDEN HINTS

Get back on track in 2017 IT’S the New Year and chances are you’ve set a few money-based resolutions. The trouble is, even the best intentions often fail to make it past Australia Day. So this year, try a different approach. Bypass the resolutions and draw up a money bucket list instead. “Your money bucket list represents personal goals that individually, and collectively, improve your finances,” said ME head of deposits and transactional banking, Nic Emery. “Take some time to think about what would really make a difference to your financial wellbeing - no, we’re not talking Lotto wins - then follow a three step guide to make your money bucket list a personal blueprint for a prosperous 2017.” Pick your top three goals. “For your money bucket list to work it pays to stick to a small number of achievable goals,” Mr Emery said. “Select the three goals that matter most to you, rank them in order of importance, and write them down. “Presto. You have the beginnings of a money bucket list.” Set realistic targets “Next, refine those goals,” Mr Emery said. “Start by making them specific. “If ‘saving more’ is at the top of your bucket list, think about how much you can afford to save. “Could you manage $20 a week or even $50 a week? Setting measurable targets

makes it far easier to stick to your goal. “If reducing debt is on your bucket list, consider which debt you want to pay off first. “Your credit card is likely to come with the highest interest rate so it can make sense to make this your top priority. “Take the same approach if you’re keen to reduce the balance of your home loan.” Make it happen “The key to ticking off each goal on your money bucket list is to have a plan of action in place,” Mr Emery added. “Here’s how you do it. “Remember that goal to grow savings by $20 each week? “Make it effortless by setting up an automatic transfer to move $20 out of your transaction account into a savings account every week. “Do the same with payments used to trim debt – you don’t have to wait until the monthly payment date to make extra repayments on a home loan or credit card. “If you’re struggling to find the cash to achieve your goals, start challenging your expenses. “Plenty of apps are available like the free TrackMySpend app that show where your money goes. “Finally, take a step closer to ticking off each goal on your money bucket list by checking you’re getting a good deal on financial products.”

WITH DEBBI GIBSON, HORTICULTURALIST

Summer garden survival tips WITH the festive season over and summer in full swing, it’s time to take some steps to ensure your garden survives the hot summer season. Midway through January, temperatures are heating up and some plants are more vulnerable than others. Potted plants and hanging baskets tend to feel the effects of heat first. Keep them well watered, in the cool of the mornings, and mulch to help retain moisture. Monitor them regularly. If they dry out completely, or the plants wilt, plunge the container into a bucket of water for half an hour to rehydrate. Move them to a more shaded spot where they are protected from the hot afternoon sun. Check irrigation systems are not blocked or leaking and are watering the gardens and lawns, not paths and driveways. Soaker hoses are a great option as they deliver water to the base of the plant and into the roots. Always water in the early morning or evening, never during the heat of the days as most will be wasted and lost to evaporation. Watering early will help to avoid mildew too. Apply a liquid fertiliser fortnightly to

flowering and fruiting plants and pots. Seasol and PowerFeed or Charlie Carp are ideal. For the vegie patch use Seasol with PowerFeed for Vegies. During extreme heat provide some shade protection for newly planted seedlings and veggies. Shadecloth, old curtains or even leafy branches can be used to give some relief and prevent leaf burn. DroughtShield is a product which can be sprayed on vulnerable plants’ leaves to provide protection from severe heat, water loss, drying winds, sunburn and transplant shock. Over time, garden soil can become water repellent so apply a soil wetting agent. This comes in a liquid or granular form. Scrape back the mulch before applying a wetting agent, then water in well and replace the mulch. Garden beds may need to be topped up with mulch. Not only does it reduce water evaporation from the soil surface, it also cools the soil and reduces water loss from the plants’ roots. Stay cool; enjoy the garden and happy New Year.

FEATURE STORY

Dogs and fireworks QUITE a number of dogs have a fear of fireworks and thunderstorms. Sometimes this can include loud noises in general. In the case of thunderstorms, it is difficult to be prepared; however, fireworks often only occur on specific evenings and they are advertised. It is possible to be prepared to make the experience less terrifying for your dog. The fear is generally irrational in that it has no basis. Generally dogs who experience loud noises such as thunderstorms and fireworks when they are young pups under 12 weeks may not have such fear. Adult dogs experiencing fireworks or other such loud noises for the first time, especially if they genetically have an anxious disposition, are more likely to become fearful at these times. Affected dogs may run away

with no direction or goal except to try to escape. When they run, they are panicked and may get hit by a car on the road because they will not notice anything around them. Dogs in the home may destroy things to try to divert their attention or even to try to escape. I have been told of dogs who have ripped away carpet to try to dig through the floor of the house in order to escape. Some dogs tremble and have a horrible time. They may accidentally go to the toilet inside. If the dog is punished for going to the toilet inside, they will become more fearful and have more reason to fear the loud noises next time. Ask your veterinarian about medication to help your dog to relax if it has a problem and fireworks are predicted. With less fear, a dog can have

the ability to learn to cope. When the fireworks happen, the dog should be allowed to escape to the part of the house where it is most comfortable. Playing soothing music so another sound is audible may help. If your dog seeks help from you, you can gently stroke its back and speak soothingly to say “good dog” but do not make contact around the face and generally continue what you are doing. If you seem anxious, your dog will become more worried. Kissing your dog or stroking around the head can make your dog think you are worried so gentle long strokes along the back while focusing on something else is most calming for your dog. Never punish your dog during these episodes or the problem will get worse. Dr Meagan Lee BVSc (Hons), Veterinarian.

“We’re tapping into the spirit of the community,” she said. Katrina added that the foundation is excited to focus more on the Wangaratta area in 2017 and in coming years, and is currently looking for programs that they can get involved with. “We want to support each other to make a bigger impact and provide a legacy for the future,” she said. One of the newest additions to the foundation, alongside Wangaratta woman Anne Shaw, is Milawa resident Tammy Atkins, who said she is very excited to continue contributing to the community within the organisation. “Into Our Hands is a well-respected community foundation,” she said. “I’m excited to have joined the board and I’m really keen to explore ways our community might use this philanthropic vehicle. “It’s early days and there’s plenty of conversations to be had, but I think the foundation can be a way of creating partnerships and pooling local fundraising for bigger projects.

“It’s also a means for individuals to contribute to community initiatives. “It’s a great initiative to be part of and I welcome a conversation with anyone keen to know more or interested in contributing.” Current foundation chair, Loretta Carroll, said the foundation helped build communities build confidence in themselves to build for the future. “We’re giving people confidence to have a bit of a go,” Loretta, who is based in Mudgegonga, said. “That way, we can all benefit.” Lorsetta aid she has always been community minded, and feels that there are many benefits to rural communities working together to find their own solutions and approaches to problems and issues. “It gives people ownership of their local community,” she said. “Everyone has a say.” Anyone wishing to know more about Into Our Hands can see the organisation’s official website at www. intoourhandsfoundation.com.au, or search for Into Our Hands Foundation on Facebook.

CATCH OF THE WEEK

FISHING FOCUS

Name:

Angus Caldwell, Wangaratta

Catch:

Murray Cod

Size

120cm

Bait:

Worms

Location: HEALTHY FISH: Tom Rochow with an Ovens River Murray cod that he caught on one of his own handmade lures during the Christmas period.

Fish are on the bite this year HEY everyone welcome to 2017. I hope you all had a wonderful festive season and caught heaps of fish. I know a lot of people certainly did catch heaps of fish, with good reports coming in from all over the place. Redfin, Murray cod, yellowbelly, trout the whole lot. Everyone has been doing well. In the words of Franko Cozzo… ”Everyone’s a winner”. On the whole, it is the Murray cod fishing that has dominated the fishing news in North East Victoria over the Christmas period. Many anglers have reported great catches of Murray cod from all over the place. The Ovens River has been a real standout with people catching large numbers of Murray cod, in some cases

well over 20 per day. Most of the cod have been small and undersize, however, a few have been caught within the 55-75cm slot size limit, and a few have been caught over the 75cm maximum size limit. Reports of these larger cod are more common downstream closer to Bundalong. The best news is that these large cod are now a protected species – able to spawn and ensure heaps of natural Murray cod recruitment for years to come.

Most cod that I have heard of have been caught on lures, with spinnerbaits being the lure of choice for many anglers during the day, and surface poppers being a favourite from sunset onwards. Although I have had stacks of reports from the Ovens River, I have also had good Murray cod reports from the Kiewa River, the Mitta Mitta River, the Broken, King and Buffalo rivers. As for the trout, the most consistent reports have been coming from the Ovens River upstream of Bright, as well as the Buckland River. From all reports both rivers have very healthy populations of both brown and rainbow trout that are willing to hit your lure at the moment thanks to the recent rainfall which has added plenty of fresh water to streams.

Setting new goals

MIA, an aspiring actress, serves lattes to movie stars in between auditions and Sebastian, a jazz musician, scrapes by playing cocktail party gigs in dingy bars, but as success mounts they are faced with decisions that begin to fray the fragile fabric of their love affair, and their dreams threaten to rip them apart.

2016 just flew by. Did you achieve everything that you envisioned for yourself a year ago? If not, maybe you had a time flow crisis. Without making a start on your health and fitness goals, the health ‘to do list’ can seem even more overwhelming. Suddenly months have flown by and you have not achieved any of the goals you set yourself for the year. Most of us set rather big goals for ourselves each year, and achieving these is difficult as we lose focus or give up. The most common excuses I hear are time related ones - such as “I’d love to eat better but I don’t have time”, or, “I feel much better when I exercise but I don’t have time”, or “relaxation is just not a priority - I don’t have time for it”. To achieve a goal, it is important to define it, and then create little steps to tick off along the way, that fit in with the time you do have. Your goal may be to lose a few kilos, to reduce symptoms, increase energy, eat better, determine if you have food

WINE TALK

Vinelea Wines

Gapsted Wines is a well-established leading producer of premium wines based near Myrtleford, in North East Victoria.

2015 Petit Blanc

Front of House / Wait Staff

Around $24 IT doesn’t take long for most of us to fall off the wagon when it comes to our New Year’s resolutions. Feeling hungover has a way of helping us make the decision to give up a vice, but as soon as we come good we tend to revert to our bad old ways. One of the best pieces of advice I’ve received from a quitter was to not let one slip up ruin the long term plan, and another was to reward yourself each time you reach a milestone. I call my resolutions “positive lifestyle choices”, which usually include supporting more local producers, trying new things and celebrating the simple things in life. So cheers to that with my first ever glass of Vinelea Wines’ 2015 Petit Blanc. It’s a blend of Marsanne and Roussanne grown and handpicked from the Beechworth-based winery owned and managed by Stuart Smith and Rhonda Parish.

Gapsted Wines has several casual positions available for the summer period within our busy Cellar Door Restaurant. The suitable candidates must be available to work weekends, Friday and Saturday evenings and Public Holidays, have an outgoing cheerful personality and a passion for a high standard of customer service.

WITH ANITA McPHERSON The wine has a golden straw colour and lightly floral aromas with some peach and honeysuckle. It has a lovely, smooth texture with creamy lasting flavours reminiscent of apple and melon with a little honey and vanilla, which I imagine would develop even further over time. There’s a pleasantly dry finish which means it goes beautifully with poultry or while sampling cheeses, which are the kind of things we seem to have plenty of at this time of year. If you make easy resolutions, sticking to them can be both rewarding and a breeze. Available from the winery in Malakoff Road, Beechworth or go to www.vinelea.com.au.

Experience in the hospitality industry is desirable. A current RSA is essential. Please forward you resume to: Robyn McLennan PO Box 425 MYRTLEFORD VIC 3737 robyn@gapstedwines.com.au

Summer snow, 1983 JANUARY 11, 1983 was a Tuesday. The previous Saturday on Mt Hotham, high winds which had been blowing turned cold, and temperatures on the Sunday and Monday were icy. Then on the Tuesday, it began to snow lightly, but by lunchtime it was heavy enough for the snowplough to be brought in to clear it.

TECH AND SCIENCE

The science of new year resolutions f(x) x 3.14r 2

WITH CHRIS FEBVRE,

NEM CREATIVE DESIGNER cfebvre@nemedia.com.au

WHAT’S your new year resolution in 2017? Is it to eat healthier? To exercise more? To get out and socialise more? To stop socialising so much because you’re nearly broke? To climb Mount Everest and teach a group of mountain goats how to become a barber-shop quartet? Well there’s good news and bad news. The bad news is, you’re about as likely to succeed in ‘eating healthier’ or ‘exercising more’ as I would be if I was determined to become the new boxing heavyweight champion of the world and start calling myself Rocky Balboa. The fact is, less than 10 per cent of new year resolutions are actually achieved, which is a pretty sobering statistic, isn’t it? I know, I know, I’m being a major downer but I did say there was good news, too, I promise. So, how do we succeed in accomplishing our new year resolutions?

IT AIN’T ROCKET SCIENCE: Committing to new year resolutions doesn’t need to be a complicated affair. Psychologist Susan Weinschenk says, “There’s two main lines of brain and behavior science that influence new year’s resolutions: The science of habits and the science of self-stories.” Usually, when we set goals for the new year, we’re talking about changing habits that are small, automatic, conditioned behaviours we have picked up over time. In some instances, a number of small habits add up to create a pattern of behaviour that is larger than the sum of its parts, but nonetheless it’s still comprised of small habits. So when we set a new year resolution like ‘I’m going to eat healthier’ we are attempting to alter

multiple habits simultaneously. In other words, we’re setting vague and extremely big goals without addressing the core behaviours, which is almost always doomed to fail. For example, say you’re a slob at home and you want to become neater. If you make the resolution that you’re going to tidy up every day and put everything away where it belongs after you use it, I can guarantee you’ll have the neatest, cleanest house ever - for one weekend. But if instead you tell yourself you’re going to take off your shoes when you enter your house each day and put them on the new shoe rack

you just bought, you’ll have a much better chance of succeeding, and you won’t have to vacuum as often - which ‘lazy you’ loves. Which brings us to the next point that of self stories. It’s one thing to try to train your brain with a bunch of new habits, but if it goes against the core idea you have of yourself, you’re still going to struggle. We rarely ponder it, but each of us has built up an idea of who we are, deep down. Some of us love putting the work in to be neat and tidy - it’s who we are. And some of us (not naming anyone) would much rather spend

their spare time playing xbox. But of course, eventually the housework needs to be done lest you want your visitors to think you are a professional mold farmer. So for those lazier people among us, we’ll have a much better time sticking to our goals if we can add incentive to our new habits that matches our self story. So while I might not become Rocky anytime soon, I can at least ride 10 kilometres on my spin bike while I play my favourite games. Happy New Year everyone, I have plenty more to share from the wonderful world of science and technology in 2017, so stay tuned.
