Lorne community looks to grab a share of funding provided by The Falls Festival
BY NATHAN HALE FIFTEEN Lorne community projects are in the running to share in $16,000 in funding from The Falls Music and Arts Festival community fund. Each year The Falls Festival provides the funds to sponsor local projects within the Lorne community, with the decision on who wins the money voted on by the community. Those who want to have a say had better be quick, however, with voting closing this Sunday, October 17. Fund co-ordinator, Naomi Daly, said she was thrilled with the quantity and quality of projects submitted. “We have had such a fantastic response from the community,” she said. “I think everyone really appreciates this is an opportunity to get some really great things done in our small community. “The projects represent a broad cross-section of people and activity and it is nice to see so many people engaged and working together. “A lot of people have gone to a great deal of effort and I’d encourage everyone to take a moment and have a look at the submissions which are available in the shops – and, of course, to vote!” The projects submitted are: Cricket pitch for Lorne Aireys Cricket Club; preservation and electronic cataloguing of Lorne’s photographic history; co-operative marketing project; Lorne Football and Netball Club courtside shelter (netball court); Lorne Kindergarten outdoor shade structure; bike education programme equipment; kids’ school holiday programme equipment; Lorne/Aireys Inlet P-12 College VCAL student project to create community planter boxes
and mobile chicken house; Lorne/Aireys Inlet P-12 College sculpture creation workshop and materials; water aerobics class equipment; ‘Get Out There’ programme equipment; Lorne heritage buildings booklet; Murray to Moyne cycle team relay jerseys; Lorne Lions Easter Art show fundraiser; and Carols on the Lorne. Project information, voting forms and voting boxes can be found in FoodWorks supermarket, Kafe Kaos, Lorne Greens, Fruits of the Forest and Lorne’s Australia Post Office. Voting is open to all Lorne permanent residents or property owners, aged 16 and over. Only one vote per person will be accepted and voting closes at 5pm this Sunday. Meanwhile, the success of The Falls Festival has again been underlined with it selling out in just 12 minutes. Locals looking to attend, however, will still be given the opportunity to purchase tickets later this month as the festival releases tickets solely for those who live locally. The festival will again bring a diverse and talented collection of artists to Lorne for the event, which this year kicks off on Tuesday, December 28.

THIS week is Fire Action Week across Victoria; presenting the ideal time to prepare for this year’s bushfire season. While council is continuing its year-round fire preparation efforts, now is the perfect time to ensure your property is prepared. Once again this summer, the 10/30 rules for vegetation clearing announced by the Victorian Government last year will apply. This means property owners can clear vegetation including trees from within 10 metres of any building used for accommodation; and ground fuel from within 30m of any building used for accommodation. Now is also the ideal time to clear gutters and consider installing leaf guards to keep gutters clean; as well as the ideal time to review your personal bushfire survival plan. Look out for today’s Fire Ready feature on pages 21-25 for more important information from council and our emergency services; who continue to do a fantastic job. In our preparations, we must never forget the horrible loss of life, the trauma and loss of property caused around Black Saturday in 2009. With this in mind I urge you to prepare well for the upcoming bushfire season. There is more important information on what you can do to prepare on the CFA website at www.cfa.vic.gov.au or at council’s website, www.surfcoast.vic.gov.au You can also get your Fire Ready Kit by contacting the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667
Community win on gaming machines Last
week’s
rejection
by
the
Victorian
Commission for Gambling Regulation of a proposal to introduce electronic gaming machines at the Beach Hotel in Jan Juc is a decision of statewide significance. The decision further vindicates council’s and the community’s opposition of the proposal, as well as council’s decision not to grant a planning permit to introduce electronic gaming machines. The commission said a telephone survey council commissioned was instrumental in its decision. In a media release, the VCGR said it â€œâ€Śwas persuaded by a council phone survey that showed 64 per cent of respondents supported development of the hotel, but this dropped to 17 per cent when they learned this would include machinesâ€?. Council has always been mindful of the potential social impacts of gaming machines in the centre of smaller communities like Jan Juc. This is certainly reflected in Council’s Gaming Policy which provides guidance to council on assessing these planning applications. We commend the Jan Juc community members who put their views forward to council and the VCGR on this proposal. Council will continue to work with the owners of the Beach Hotel should they wish to revise plans for any redevelopment.
Your opportunity to connect with children’s services
As a parent, it’s important to know about the services and groups that are available close to home for advice, assistance and support.

Finally, it was great to join local residents and my fellow Councillors, Rose Hodge and Joe Remenyi, to welcome October at the 175th anniversary of the establishment of the Connewarre community. The morning was a great chance to step back through the area’s rich farming history in particular with school children from around the area heavily involved and lots of great stories told. The horse and cart rides, dancing around the maypole and other activities helped add to the spirit of the day. I congratulate the organising committee and all who were involved in running the event.

tutoring services, toy libraries, respite care, playgroups and therapy services. There will also be a free sausage sizzle and entertainment for the kids. As part of the expo, council will also be releasing the first Surf Coast Shire Playground brochure. This useful resource provides information about local playgrounds throughout the municipality to local families and tourists alike. The expo will be held on Saturday, October 23 from 10am-1pm. I hope to see you there.
Torquay Kindergarten currently provides services to 160 three-year-old and four-yearold children, but the Brumby government has failed to adequately plan for Torquay’s growth. As a result the kindergarten can no longer keep up with enrolments and it’s unlikely that a three-year-old kinder program will be offered next year. This will leave a major gap in the development of children’s social and learning skills. The pre-school community in Torquay is keen to have kindergarten services expanded and has applied to have land behind the current shire QHſEGU CNNQECVGF VQ CNNQY ITQYVJ CV VJG EWTTGPV site. The committee has been told by Member HQT 5QWVJ $CTYQP /KEJCGN %TWVEJſGNF VJKU NCPF has been set aside for enlarging the secondary school. Despite the Brumby government failing to commit a single dollar to improve secondary education at Torquay, the Baillieu-led Coalition has committed $20 milliion to build a year 7 to 12 stand-alone secondary college. This would free up the opportunity for the Torquay preschool community to expand kindergarten service on land currently occupied by the Shire QHſEGU It is staggering that a regional city of more than 14,000 residents has been left to languish as the kindergarten is stretched to full capacity in serving the needs of its pre-school children.
Government MPs need a reality check It is disappointing that letters recently produced and distributed by Brumby Labor government OGODGTU /KEJCGN %TWVEJſGNF CPF )C[NG Tierney are full of self indulgent self promotion and avoid addressing pressing issues within their electorates. The correspondence selectively promotes the Brumby government’s record on climate change. However it fails to highlight the cost DNQY QWVU VJCV YKNN TGUWNV KP )GGNQPI TGUKFGPVU paying more for basic services for generations to come. Cost of the desalination plant at Wonthaggi has blown out from $3billion to $5.4billion and the )GGNQPI /GNDQWTPG YCVGT KPVGT EQPPGEVQT YKNN see the Surf Coast community pay more for water over the next 30 years regardless of need.

These MPs have remained completely silent on inadequate government funding given to VJG )GGNQPI *QURKVCN CPF VJG CODWNCPEG ETKUKU facing the region.

Jan Juc decision ‘groundbreaking’
Report says ambulance wait too long BY NATHAN HALE LOCAL ambulances services are continuing to fail to meet targets and are putting lives at risk in the process. The Victorian Auditor General’s report into Access to Ambulance Services released last week shows no Surf Coast branch is meeting Ambulance Victoria’s (AV) performance targets. AV has set itself the target of responding to Code 1 calls within 15 minutes 85 per cent of the time. Last week’s report, however, shows that all four Surf Coast ambulance branches are well below that target. Anglesea made the AV 15-minute target just 52.7 per cent of the time; Torquay 55.3 per cent; Lorne 67.8 per cent and Apollo Bay 69.8 per cent of the time. With the state election looming, the figures have seen the Coalition renew calls for increased ambulance numbers throughout the state. “Ambulance Victoria board minutes prove that whilst people were dying waiting for ambulances, John Brumby cut back on paramedics,” said David Davis, Shadow Minister for Health. “Victorians will continue to suffer while waiting longer for an ambulance while John Brumby refuses to acknowledge that there is a crisis within Ambulance Victoria. “Victorians in the Geelong region deserve access to ambulance and health services, not a system where Labor cuts paramedics to save money.”

What a drought-breaker CENTRESIDE Drive residents thought the drought had well and truly broken when a strong surge of water saw flooding through their backyards following last week’s heavy rain. Five properties in the street – which is located in The Quay development in Torquay – had water stream through their backyards, however, Surf Coast Shire Council said there was no damage to houses. “Due to recent rains, a contractor working on the Community and Civic Precinct site lowered water levels of dams around the site,” explained council’s director of infrastructure, Sunil Bhalla.
“This resulted in water flowing into five backyards. No houses were damaged. “Council officers have assessed the area and council and the contractor will work with affected residents to rectify any issues that have arisen.” Local resident, Pam Wiltshire, said she thought the water was from last Monday afternoon’s downpour – until it didn’t stop flowing. “I just thought it was a bit of flooding from the rain,” she said. “But then it steadily got worse and worse – but there was no rain – and then when the person from the shire came around, I realised it wasn’t normal.”
SURF Coast Shire councillor, Rose Hodge, has hailed the decision to reject the proposal for poker machines at the Jan Juc Hotel as groundbreaking. Hodge, who was one of the most vocal opponents of the proposal to add poker machines to the hotel, praised the community and the shire for its part in seeing the plan knocked back by the Victorian Commission for Gambling Regulation (VCGR). “This is groundbreaking, because council and the Jan Juc community were able to demonstrate the strong opposition towards the placement of gaming machines in Jan Juc to the commission’s satisfaction,” Hodge said. “This was an important result because of the nature of Jan Juc’s small shopping strip and tightknit community.” Shire mayor, Libby Coker, said the decision further vindicated council’s decision not to grant a permit for the installation of gaming machines. “While we wish the owners of the venue well, council maintains the view that the Jan Juc shopping centre was not an appropriate place for gaming machines to be installed,” she said. “We’re pleased the VCGR has agreed with council’s view and the community’s view.” Member for South Barwon, Michael Crutchfield, said the community should be proud of its historic victory. Crutchfield – who spoke in support of the community campaign in parliament recently – said the decision further supported the shire’s decision not to grant a planning permit for the proposal. “I wholeheartedly supported this community campaign and strongly believe that such machines do not belong in the Jan Juc shopping centre,” he said. The VCGR’s decision is available at www.vcgr. vic.gov.au

ANGLESEA resident Eathorne Mitchell will be beamed into loungerooms across Australia this Saturday as part of the ABC’s Gardening Australia show, which will be screened at 6.30pm. Eathorne is the subject of a segment on growing bush plants in coastal areas, although the real star of the show is her lovely garden. A 22-year labour of love, the garden features some wonderful, unusual Australian native plant species, including cinnamon (red) wattle, cocky’s tongue, silver banksias and grass leaf hakea. It is also a haven for local birds with 34 different Australian native bird species identified at last count. “This garden is a testament to working with nature rather than against it,� explained Gardening Australia presenter Jane Edmanson. “The plants’ flowers return each year without any human interference and the whole garden is a revelation of what can and does thrive in the salty, blustery winds that buffet an area where rugged surf meets cliff heathland.� An active ANGAIR member, Eathorne originally sourced many of her plants through ANGAIR’s plant propagation group and from Otways Indigenous Nurseries.
Eathorne Mitchell and her stunning coastal bushland garden.
She is actively involved in maintaining Anglesea’s distinctive heathland and is passionate about removing environmental weeds from the area. Eathorne credits her lifelong love of Australian plants to her mother and grandmother.
“As a child, I loved walking through the bushland around Anglesea, admiring the plant life and I have many fond memories of my mother, and her mother, collecting bunches of local wildflowers.�

forward, the organisation may be forced to fold. The association has been in existence for 14 years and desperately needs new members – as well as people to step forward to fill committee vacancies. “What we seem to have is a big community with very little interest in having a say at all,� Humphrey said.
“Six years ago, when I was secretary, there were 120 members‌ now we have 26.â€? The association will hold its next meeting towards the end of next month, and anyone interested in attending or joining can contact Ron Humphrey on 5261 9748 or email ronald_humphrey@hotmail. com

From little things‌ BY GAIL CHRISFIELD SURF Coast Energy Group members are all smiles following news of a $50,000 State Government grant to fund the group’s new Grow It project. “We’re absolutely thrilled. Actually, we still can’t believe it,â€? said SCEG president, Caroline Hawkins. “This generous grant will help us to deliver a real, hands-on programme that addresses climate change in a positive manner at the grassroots level by engaging people in growing their own fresh food. “Gardening is such a positive activity, which is in direct contrast to much of the current negative discussion around climate change. “Our Grow It project aims to reach those who have never gardened before or who are ‘time poor’ and to introduce them to veggie gardening as a way of taking practical action on climate change in their own lives.â€? SCEG will deliver the project across the Surf
Coast region. Project participants will each receive a subsidised vegetable box with timed irrigation, up to 12 two-hour training sessions over 12 months and regular information about how to grow food at home. Parliamentary Secretary for the Environment and Water, and Member for South Barwon, Michael Crutchfield, congratulated SCEG as one of 19 recipients of the first round of funding for the Victorian Government’s Climate Communities Programme. “The project will receive hands-on support and practical advice on household food production to help reduce the area’s ecological footprint,� Crutchfield said. �It is expected that each participant will grow up to 1,800 kilograms of fresh food per year.� For more information about the Grow It project, contact Surf Coast Energy Group on email at info@ sceg.org.au

Children’s Expo has the answers LOCAL parents wanting to know more about the range of services and support available on the Surf Coast need look no further than the 2010 Surf Coast Children’s Services Expo. Surf Coast Shire is organising this event, bringing together more than 30 service providers from child care, kindergartens, tutoring services, toy libraries, respite care, playgroups
and therapy services that operate in the municipality. The expo will be held at the Torquay Children’s Hub on Grossmans Road from 10am-1pm on Saturday, October 23 at the Torquay Children’s Services Hub. The day will also include free entertainment for the kids, as well as a sausage sizzle.
As part of the event, council will also be releasing its first Playground Brochure; which provides information on the many great playgrounds throughout the Surf Coast. Mayor, Libby Coker, said the expo presented a great opportunity for families to find out about the range of services available throughout the region.
“We have a lot of busy young families in the Surf Coast Shire and many who have also moved to the region recently,� she said. “This is a great opportunity to find out about the services that can help make sure our children grow to be the best they can be.� For more information, phone the Surf Coast Shire Council on 5261 0600.

Encouraging others to give BY GAIL CHRISFIELD THE 12th National Transplant Games in Canberra recently provided the impetus for three Torquay residents to hit the streets in a bid to raise awareness of organ donation among their local community. Decked out in Donate Life regalia, Mary Elliott, Debbie Slater and Lyn Smith pounded the Gilbert Street, Torquay Central, Surf City Plaza and Bell Street pavements to hand out organ donor registration forms to business owners and shoppers. “All three of us met with an excellent response. Not one person knocked us back, which was wonderful,” said co-ordinator Elliott, who didn’t let a broken foot slow her down.
As donor recipients, Slater and Smith were more than happy to help promote the organ donation push. “There are a lot of myths about organ donation. People often tell me that their organs would be too old or unhealthy and are surprised when I tell them that may not be the case,” Smith said. “Many people don’t realise that, even if they have registered to be a donor, family consent is always sought and it is up to close family members to give the final okay. “This is why we are encouraging people to discover the facts, make a decision about organ donation and discuss this decision with those closest to them.” For more information about organ donation, visit www.donatelife.gov.au

Making Victoria FireReady: The Department of Sustainability and Environment is preparing Victoria for bushfires. Planned burning in our parks and forests is starting soon. • • • • •
We can reduce fuel loads with planned burning. This can reduce the intensity and severity of future bushfires. We are increasing the amount of burning we do. We’ll be burning whenever the conditions are right. Our priority is protecting communities.
Burning helps to protect people, townships and the environment but it has risks and inconveniences. You may be affected by these planned burns and see burns or smell smoke.

Torquay’s newest eatery THE POINT Bake will open its doors to the public this weekend – offering Torquay residents the chance to sample delicious homemade cakes and an ever-changing menu. The cafĂŠ is located at Shop 1/38-40 Bell Street – just near WaterMarks Gallery – and is run by Faith Davis. A qualified chef and cookie decorator, Faith has been a regular visitor to Torquay and saw the opportunity to open the cafĂŠ with the closure of Surf Coast Souvlaki. “I had been living in Essendon and coming down
to Torquay for the last 15 years – holidaying in the Caravan Park,â€? Faith said. “We moved down in July and the cafĂŠ will bring a little bit of something different, such as wedding cakes and birthday cakes. “There will also be no lunch menu on the tables. Instead, one of our walls is like a big blackboard and it will be our menu and it will continue to change. “Also, if people come in and want something that isn’t on the board, we will do our best to make it if we have the ingredients.â€?

ANYONE thinking Anglesea’s men had stepped out of the shed and into the tent can think again. A story in last week’s Surf Coast Times inadvertently labelled the Men’s Shed the Men’s Tent. While the tent does not exist, the shed is going strong from its base at the Anglesea and District Community House, with members meeting every Tuesday from 10am-12pm. The group will have a shed, however, from next year. Plans have been drawn up to build a permanent headquarters next to the Anglesea Bowling Club, with work expected to begin early next year. For more information on the Anglesea Men’s Shed, phone co-ordinator Laurie Mason on 5289 6966.
Apollo Bay’s big weekend
APOLLO Bay will host a weekend of activities to support Breast Cancer Network later this month. Building on two highly successful events last year, the events have been combined to create a weekend of friendship, fun and support. The Otway Ladies Night on Friday, October 22 will gather more than 80 women at the Apollo Bay Hotel. The women will be entertained by guest speaker, Lesley Dillon, and local musician Matt Orchard. On Saturday, October 23 more than 200 Pink Lady silhouettes will grace the beach and main street of Apollo Bay as a powerful display of support for women and families affected by breast cancer.

response from the public justified the hard work and dedication from the organising committee, headed by Karren Stoneham. While acts such as Chris Wilson and Tiffany Eckhardt drew huge audiences, sets from lesser known performers such as The Mojo Corner, Good

Madden approves 4C STATE Planning Minister, Justin Madden, has approved an amended planning scheme which will ensure the connection of the Geelong Ring Road to the Surf Coast Highway. The announcement was made last week and will see section 4C of the road link from Anglesea Road near Hams Road to the Surf Coast Highway at Grovedale. The connection will also provide a vital link to Armstrong Creek. The amendment has also reserved land for the southern portion of the Armstrong Creek Railway Station and car park. “Today’s announcement is great news for the people of Geelong, as this project will provide a new and improved connection to the Surf Coast Highway and take traffic off local roads, while catering for tourism and future population growth in the region,” said State Member for South Barwon, Michael Crutchfield. “Geelong Ring Road 4C will also provide access to the south side of the future Armstrong Creek station, which is expected to become one of Geelong’s busiest stations. “I want to thank the members of the local community who took the opportunity to speak to me and participate in the consultation undertaken for this project – your valuable feedback will continue to inform the important design development stage of the project.” Unlike other sections of the Geelong Ring Road, Stage 4C is not a freeway standard connection and will initially provide an arterial connection designed to reduce impacts on the community and complement the surrounding area. The $76.9million 4C connection will provide a vital new transport corridor, according to Roads and Port Minister, Tim Pallas. “This section 4C of the Geelong Ring Road will connect from Anglesea Road near Hams Road to the Surf Coast Highway at Grovedale, catering for future population growth and providing an essential connection to some of Victoria’s premier tourism destinations.” Pallas said the Geelong Ring Road was already providing great benefits for the thousands of people who live, work or holiday in the region. “This fantastic road has slashed travel times and greatly reduced truck volumes on key roads in Geelong by up to 75 per cent in some places,” he said. “Construction is progressing well on the connection to Anglesea Road, works are close to starting on the connection to the Princes Highway and now the Surf Coast connection is one step closer to getting underway.” Plans for Stage 4C of the Geelong Ring Road were first introduced by Geelong City Council as part of its Armstrong Creek Urban Growth Area plan. The approved 4C alignment is situated in the same location previously consulted on and exhibited by council. Planning Minister, Justin Madden, said the approved amendments were an important stimulus for the community. “The creation and location of this transport corridor supports the City of

Greater Geelong’s Armstrong Creek Urban Growth Area, which is expected to accommodate around 55,000 people and provide about 22,000 jobs,” he said. “We’re also providing for a future Armstrong Creek Railway Station to support appropriate transport services for this growth area and the rapidly expanding southern suburbs of Geelong.”

Think pink through October BY NATHAN HALE MITRE 10 Torquay and the crew from YELLOWtongue flooring are teaming up to turn pink for the month of October in support of the Cancer Council’s Pink Ribbon Day. Throughout the month, the Cancer Council is aiming to raise awareness about breast cancer, as well as raise funds towards research education and patient support programmes. For Mitre 10, the link with Pink Ribbon Day is of special significance, for in July, employee Kenwyn Seiffert was diagnosed with breast cancer. The 58-year-old found a lump in her breast during a routine check and has since had the breast removed. With five doses of chemotherapy completed and one more next week, Kenwyn is maintaining her positive outlook on life and is confident she will be back to work as soon as she can. “It was a big shock,� she said. “It certainly gives you another outlook on life because you don’t know what the future holds and you don’t know what you have to go through. “You have your good days and your bad days but the doctors said we caught it early. “I have one more lot of chemo to go and then a course of radiotherapy – and hopefully if everything comes up clear it will just mean regular check ups.� Despite battling a disease which affects 12,000 Australian women every year, Kenwyn has not lost her sense of humour. When asked her age, the 58-year-old replied “15�, and also recalled the story of how her mother decided on her Christian name. “Apparently there was a serial on the radio, called How Green Was My Valley,� she said. “There was a character in it called Ceinwen – which is Welsh – and my mother liked the name and decided to call me that.
Getting behind Pink Ribbon Day are (from left) Vicki Dwyer from Carter Holt Harvey, Mitre 10’s Evan Crick and Kenwyn Seiffert.
“However, when she went to spell it I don’t think she knew how it was spelt, so I ended up with Kenwyn – which is a mix between my father’s name, Ken, and a favourite relative, Aunt Wyn.� Mitre 10’s Evan Crick said the business was only too happy to throw its support behind Pink Ribbon Day, in association with YELLOWtongue flooring.
Throughout October, the iconic YELLOWtongue flooring product will turn ‘pink’. The product itself will be identical to the YELLOWtongue product that Australian builders and DIYers have come to know and trust over the last 30 years; the only difference being it will be supplied with a pink tongue. “Why not get behind this and support it?� said

Crick. “$3 from every sheet of ‘pink’ tongue that we sell will go straight to the appeal. “We just think that as a business with a good profile in the community – which has a lot of good citizens – why not support something that is for such a worthy cause?�
WE’RE TURNING PINK FOR OCTOBER

TONGUE FLOORING For the month of October, CHH is turning their iconic Structaflor YELLOWtongue flooring product ‘pink’ to raise money to support the Cancer Council’s Pink Ribbon Day.

The upcoming annual Ocean Grove PS Art

However, the school is also large enough to offer specialist teachers for subjects.

Support for a plastic bag free Torquay Dear Editor, For the last three months we have been lucky to see so many whales travelling up and down the Surf Coast. As humans we need to be careful that our wasteful ways don’t harm any of the whales or other sea creatures along our great coast. In 2000 an eight-metre whale was found stranded near Cairns. Its stomach was packed tight with six square metres of plastic, including shopping bags, garbage bags and plastic food packaging. The Surfrider Foundation supports a community campaign towards a plastic bag free Torquay. We believe that this would set a fantastic example for other coastal towns which enjoy annual visits by whales. The plastic bag of today can easily become the whale food of tomorrow. It’s time to change our ways.

Dear Editor, In reply to Lyn George’s recent suggestion in local media about relocating the motocross track at Barrabool to Avalon. Yes, it is a golden opportunity to include motocross activities as part of the proposed motorsports hub at Avalon Airport. As a motorcycle enthusiast it makes great sense, however, it would be detrimental for our local communities if McAdam Park were to go. Having more than one legal off road facility is what a municipality the size of Geelong and its surrounding regions needs and what its thousands of enthusiasts have always wanted. Since Geelong’s second facility at Breakwater closed, there has been a noticeable increase in riding activity outside of legal riding areas. Rightly or wrongly, riders do this because they want variety and the chance to explore something new, which is in part the essence of motorcycling. I thank you for trying to help motorcyclists gain other riding opportunities, but a better solution for our communities would be to spread the usage over more facilities, thereby lessening the load on McAdam Park.
Dear Editor, I am appalled and disgusted with the person who has dumped an old television and fridge on the grass verge along Duffields Road in Torquay. I wonder if they have replaced them with a nice new American-style fridge and flat screen TV and just didn’t want to pay the few extra dollars to do the right thing and take the old ones to the tip. You should be ashamed of yourself and not live in such a beautiful part of the country if you feel it’s acceptable to dump your rubbish in the countryside. Shame on you.

A tent… not really Dear Editor Thanks for your support in this month’s Anglesea in Focus with the story ‘Men’s tent to take shape’. The article, however, needs a little clarification. We are, in fact, looking at a shed not a tent as part of the “men’s shed” movement, one of the fastest growing social movements in Australia with over 100 sheds in Victoria alone and new sheds forming all the time. In addition our plans are not new, we have been working together with the Anglesea Bowls Club since late 2009 to develop a facility that both parties can use to the benefit of the community. The shed will include a storage area and workshop for bowling machinery, a recreation area and a men’s shed workshop. In addition there will be toilet facilities and a long verandah capable of catering for men’s shed and bowling functions. In close association with the shire, both groups are putting a submission to the State Government for inclusion of the shed within the bowls club lease area. If all goes well, as your article in this case correctly stated, we will begin building early in the new year.

Marine parks are working Dear Editor, Gary Kerr in his My Big Catch column (October 5) “Australia’s world-class fisheries management demonstrated, lock up mentality, caught out by report”. He goes on to quote ABARE Fishery Status Report figures which demonstrate that for 16 years until 2008 fisheries Australia wide were in decline. 2008 and 2009 reports show some improvement but still 42 per cent of fisheries are overfished. Hardly world class, I would have thought? There can only be a few explanations for this improvement from 73 per cent overfished in the previous 16 years. 1. Marine parks are allowing fish stocks to recover and recolonise overfished areas. 2. An anomaly in the figures as governments pull money out of fisheries research. 3. A reduction in fishing effort due to buy back of commercial licenses or fisheries reaching a point where they are uneconomic to exploit. 4. An unexplained bounceback, perhaps the fish have got smarter? I would say number one was the most likely scenario, yet Mr Kerr uses the improvement to argue for no more marine parks. I am a keen fisherman and despair at the lack of enforcement of fisheries regulations. Everywhere I go I look at recreational catches and see undersize fish and no inspectors and inadequate penalties and yet Mr Kerr sees none of this and all is well. Sure, marine parks are inconvenient to fishermen, but in the absence of effective regulation they are about the only hope fish have of sustainable recovery. Richard Gilbert Deans Marsh

Message from the Premier John Brumby Victoria is one of the most liveable places in the world.
years of prolonged drought and the summer fire risk is still very real.
Our state is famous for its magnificent natural attractions and network of beautiful towns and cities.
Last year, the Victorian Government led the first ever Fire Action Week – a week dedicated to preparing our homes and communities for the fire season.
But Victoria is also one of the most fire-prone places in the world. As we continue to learn the lessons of the terrible fires of February 2009 and drive the next stage of rebuilding in the communities affected, a new fire season is almost here.
This year, Fire Action Week runs from October 10 to October 17 and will again be an important time for all Victorians to prepare.
In recent months there’s been a lot of rain and in some parts of the state, serious flooding.
It’s an opportunity for you to find out more about the fire risk to you – whether you are planning a holiday in the country or coast, or live and work in a fire-prone area.
But this wet weather follows 13
This Fire Ready feature contains
Premier John Brumby essential information to help keep you, your family your friends and your community safe from the threat of fire.
If you live in a high-risk area, I strongly encourage you to attend a Country Fire Authority Fireguard group or Fire Ready Victoria meeting to help you develop your own personal fire plan.
We want to put as much high quality, accurate and timely information as possible in the hands of individuals so that during a bushfire threat you can make informed decisions about how you respond.
Your local community and fire agency, whether it’s the CFA or Metropolitan Fire Brigade, will help you understand how your environment could be impacted and how you can better prepare for this fire season.
That way – together – we will continue to rise to the challenge of making Victoria as fire-safe and fireready as possible.
We’ve made big changes to how we prepare for and fight fires and continue to drive a new focus on protecting and preserving human life from the threat of bushfires.

Making Victoria FireReady
9 things you should do right now. Victoria is one of the most fire-prone areas in the world. So if you live in a bush, coastal or urban fringe area, or even if you just travel to one on a day trip or holiday, you need to be FireReady. 1 Many homes in high risk bushfire areas are not built to withstand bushfire and survival must be your main priority. To find out if you could defend your house from bushfire, use the CFA’s Household Bushfire Self-Assessment Tool online or book a free CFA site visit at www.cfa.vic.gov.au or call 1800 240 667.
Fire Action Week.
2 Start clearing up around your property. Even if you plan to leave well before a fire threatens, you may not be able to. A well-prepared building can shield you from radiant heat, which can kill you. 3 Find out the location of the nearest Neighbourhood Safer Place and how to get there. The CFA website lists Neighbourhood Safer Places. 4 Pack your relocation kit. This should contain, food, water, woollen blankets, mobile phone with charger, a first-aid kit, medication, prescriptions, important contacts, pet food and bedding and anything else you may need away from home. 5 Be aware of your children’s school Bushfire Survival Plan by talking to school staff or visit www.education.vic.gov.au
6 Prepare a written Bushfire Survival Plan and consider the needs of the elderly, people with special needs, children, pets and/or livestock. Obtain your free FireReady Kit from www.cfa.vic.gov.au or call 1800 240 667. 7 Practise your Bushfire Survival Plan – doing so increases your chances of survival in a fire. Make sure you have back-up plans and alternative exit routes in place. Fires are erratic and can arrive at unexpected times. 8 Regularly monitor conditions, know the Fire Danger Rating in your area and keep up-to-date by tuning into ABC Local Radio, commercial radio and SKY NEWS. Fire Danger Ratings are your trigger to act. 9 To be better prepared in your local area, visit www.cfa.vic.gov.au for your local Community Fireguard Group and/or attend FireReady Victoria community meetings.
So get involved with Fire Action week and start preparing now. Your survival and the survival of your family could depend on it. For a free FireReady Kit, or for more information on how to prepare, act and survive, visit www.cfa.vic.gov.au or call 1800 240 667.
Get involved and get ready for the fire season. Fire Action Week is the time for all Victorians to start preparing for the fire season. Despite our wet winter, we’re facing yet another highly dangerous summer. From October 10 to 17, there will be a range of special Fire Action Week events and activities in communities across the state to help you plan and prepare for the fire season. Make sure you get involved. Your survival, and the survival of your family, could depend on it.

Preparation is key 10 ways to reduce
VICTORIA is one of the most fire-prone areas in the world. More than a decade of drought, dry summers and plenty of vegetation after one of the wettest winters on record heighten the need to prepare for the upcoming fire season. Fires can spread as fast as 60kmh in grassland and 40kmh in a forest, and flames can reach more than 100m in height. Radiant heat emits heat equivalent to 50,000 radiators and embers can start fires up to 35km ahead of a fire front. But a few simple preparations could save lives, whether you live, work or plan to holiday anywhere near parklands, forests, grassland or scrubs. This means clearing up around your home and developing a fire plan, which are the themes for this year’s Fire Action Week.
A series of Fire Action Week activities, including fire planning workshops in fire-affected communities, will be held across the state, giving people practical advice, tips and knowledge about how to protect themselves and their families. All communities and people who live, work or plan to holiday in areas of high fire risk need to identify potential fire hazards and clean up around their homes before the summer fire season as part of their fire plan. Fires don’t just pose a threat to people who live in country Victoria. Bush, scrub and grass fires can also place lives and property in jeopardy in urban fringe areas, where the population is increasing. Holidaymakers also need to carefully plan ahead when travelling on hot, dry and windy days.

Tidy up in time for summer MANY homes in areas of high fire risk are not built to withstand fire, despite Victoria being one of the most fireprone areas in the world. More than 2,000 houses were destroyed during the fires in January and February 2009, with many succumbing to fires started by embers. You should consider your individual fire risk no matter where you live, especially if you’re near paddocks, grassland or bush. There are many ways to make your property safer. Clearing up and planning ahead will help protect your home from fire, and it could save the lives of you and your family if you get caught and need it to shelter. Having the space surrounding your home cleared of
vegetation will minimise your home’s exposure to radiant heat and direct flame, which will slow the speed and intensity of an advancing fire. Without this space, your home may not survive the fire front. If you are caught out at home when a fire hits, this space around your home may increase you and your family’s chances of survival. If you own land in a municipality that is vulnerable to fire, you may be able to clear vegetation on your property around your home without a permit for fire protection. This includes trees within 10 metres of your house and ground fuel within 30 metres of your house. Visit www.cfa.vic.gov.au to see if the 10/30 rule applies in your municipality.
Tips for preparing your home • Leaf-free gutters. Keep gutters clean and install leaf guards or a leafless guttering system • Vegetation near the house. Clear vegetation from around the house, keep grass less than 10cm high and remove weeds. Check with your local council for laws on clearing native vegetation • Mulch. Use stones or pebbles or decayed humus mulch instead of woodchips or dry straw. Keep it moist • Gardens. Avoid plants with high levels of oils in their leaves such as eucalyptus and tea trees, which are highly flammable • Metal flyscreens. Install metal flyscreens on windows,
surfcoasttimes.com.au
chimneys, doors and vents to keep out embers • Around and under the house. Remove flammable items from around your house, such as paper, boxes, doormats, woodpiles and garden furniture • Back-up water source. In the event of power failure, use a non-electric (ie. diesel) pump from an alternative water supply such as a swimming pool, tank or dam. You can access the CFA Household Bushfire SelfAssessment Tool as well as a number of other helpful resources to help prepare your fire plan from the CFA website or call the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667 to request a FireReady Kit.

Making Victoria FireReady:
Victoria’s Total Fire Ban districts have changed. Victoria now has nine Total Fire Ban districts that align with the nine Victorian Bureau of Meteorology weather districts. This means Total Fire Bans and Fire Danger Ratings now apply to the same districts. Total Fire Bans are declared by the CFA on days when fires are likely to spread rapidly and be difficult to control. They can be declared either state wide or in certain districts. Fire Danger Ratings predict fire behaviour should a fire start. The Fire Danger Rating level is to be used as your trigger to leave. For more information on what you can and cannot do on Total Fire Ban days and the importance of Fire Danger Ratings, visit www.cfa.vic.gov.au or call 1800 240 667.
CODE RED
Understanding the ratings FIRE Danger Ratings predict fire behaviour should a fire start and how difficult it will be to put it out. It is important to remember: • You need to know the daily Fire Danger Rating in your district to stay safe • The Fire Danger Rating is your trigger to act • The higher the rating the more dangerous the conditions • Fire Danger Ratings will feature in weather forecasts during the fire season • They will be broadcast on radio and TV, appear in some newspapers and be available on the CFA and Department of Sustainability websites on cfa.vic.gov.au or dse.vic.gov.au or phone the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667.
Forrest’s fire planning day FORREST will host a Fire Action Week Planning Day this weekend. The day, to be held at the Forrest Community Hall on Sunday, October 17 from 11am-3pm, will focus on identifying local risk and personal risk and the importance of writing and practising your individual fire plan. The Forrest Fire Brigade will be on hand providing local information and a sausage sizzle. Fire Action Week signals that it is now time to start planning and preparing for the upcoming fire season.

Be fire ready with Icom Plan for your WITH the bushfire season fast approaching, all Australians – especially those in fire-prone areas – need to be fire ready. The Black Saturday Royal Commission recognised, among other things, that reliable communications in such a catastrophe are vital, and can be the difference between life and death. In the event that a bushfire threatens your area, a portable UHF CB or scanner/receiver can become a valuable tool in helping you survive and make it out alive. For serious communications, look no further than Icom. The commercial grade IC-41S is built tough to withstand extreme conditions, and has a large capacity 2000mAh Lithium-Ion battery which provides roughly 13 hours of typical use per charge. With 5-watt output power and many scanning options, the IC-41S makes it easy to stay in touch during an emergency. Icom’s fantastic range of scanner/receivers will also prove to be invaluable during the unrelenting fire season. The IC-R6 has full frequency coverage, can receive on FM, WFM and AM bands and has a loud, 150mW internal speaker. This allows the user to stay aware of any danger, through monitoring emergency broadcast systems. In rural areas, the analogue signals transmitted by police and fire authorities can also be received. So when you prepare your evacuation kit for this summer, be sure to include an Icom
holidays
UHF CB or radio scanner, to help you stay in contact in the event of an emergency. To find out more about the great range of Icom products, phone 9549 7500 or visit www.icom.net.au
IF YOU plan to travel or go on holiday in areas close to bush, coastal areas or parklands in Victoria, you must carefully plan how you will respond when fire threatens. Holidaymakers face the same risk as residents in fire-prone areas across Victoria. But the prospect of a season of high fire risk should not deter you from visiting country Victoria this summer providing you plan ahead and monitor local conditions. You are potentially at risk this fire season if you: • Go on a camping trip in fire-prone areas • Stay at a caravan park • Holiday at a beach house • Visit or house-sit a country property • Spend a weekend or a day at the beach or in the country. If you are outdoors when a fire starts: • Leave the area immediately if it is safe to do so. Do not wait to see smoke and flames • If you cannot leave safely, shelter at a designated Neighbourhood Safer Place of last resort, or an enclosed building while the fire passes. Stay near the exit so you can escape if the building burns.
The Icom range of portable communications equipment can play a vital part in your fire preparations this season.
TRAILERS
If there is no cover: • Find a large, open area as far as possible from trees and vegetation, or shelter behind a rocky outcrop or wall or in a large dam or lake • Avoid slopes and hilltops – avoid being above the fire • DO NOT seek refuge in above-ground tanks or swimming pools • Cover exposed skin with dry natural-fibre clothing.

All creatures great and small MORE than 100 people and their pets flocked to St Wilfrids Anglican Church, Mt Duneed, recently for the seventh annual Blessing of the Animals. The menagerie included guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, dogs and even goats, with 60-plus animals receiving a blessing from Reverend JoAnne Wells, who said she had never seen the animals so well behaved during the service. “At one stage, I was telling a story about St Francis talking and it felt like all the animals in the church were listening,” she said. “The biggest was an Irish Wolfhound that had to be seen to be believed; the smallest a baby guinea pig and the cutest a five-week-old pug puppy.” In all, close to $1,000 was raised with a local animal shelter to benefit from some of the proceeds. Reverend JoAnne Wells blesses a new ‘kid’ on the block.

Carson joins new team By Enzo Raimondo, CEO REIV
August REIV vacancy rates ANOTHER month has passed with very little change or improvement in the availability of rental homes in Victoria. The August release of the REIV’s residential vacancy rates showed that a mere 1.7 per cent of rental homes were vacant, the same as in July this year and slightly better than this time last year when it was 1.4 per cent. This is in stark contrast to the first half of the last decade when rental homes were much more available; for instance, in August 2003 the vacancy rate was 3.6 per cent. Unfortunately, due to insufficient investment and construction of residential homes, the Melbourne market shows no signs of returning to vacancy rates like that in the short- or medium-term. Renters will find that this translates into higher rents and higher competition to secure the home of their choice. Within the city the most difficult place to find vacant homes for rent was in the outer suburbs, where a vacancy rate of 0.8 per cent was recorded, down from 1.3 per cent last month. The vacancy rate in the inner suburbs – those within 10 kilometres of the CBD – was 1.8 per cent, very close to the 1.9 per cent recorded in the middle band of suburbs. Vacant rental homes in regional Victoria remain scarcer than in the city. The Geelong region recorded a vacancy rate of 1.4 per cent and Ballarat recorded one per cent. Bendigo recorded a rate of 0.4 per cent. The vacancy rate has now been below 0.5 per cent in Bendigo for 12 months, making it the most difficult place to rent a home in Victoria.

Building numbers continue to rise MORE than 57,000 homes will be built throughout Victoria this year according to the Housing Industry Association’s Victorian State Outlook. “Victoria is forecast to see a 25 per cent increase in housing starts this year, to a level of 57,172,� said HIA Victorian executive director, Gil King. “The strong result largely reflects increased first home buyer grants that were specifically targeted for new housing, and were particularly generous in regional Victoria, where much of our state’s recent housing activity has occurred.� “Healthy home building activity is forecast to continue next year, with the number of homes started forecast to be 54,025 in 2011, still a very high level.� From an already-solid looking base of 41,924
dwellings in financial year 2008/09, the number of housing starts in Victoria grew by 30 per cent in 2009/10 to reach a level of 54,369. On a financial year basis, HIA forecasts 54,686 starts in 2010/11 (up from 53,000 as of the previous Outlook report released in late June 2010). Housing starts are forecast to reach a level of 52,294 in 2011/12 (compared to a forecast in the previous Outlook report of 48,800). “There appears to be enough forward momentum in Victoria’s new home building market to take it into another year of growth in housing starts in 2010/11,� King said. “However, if Victoria wishes to maintain a building and affordability edge over the long-term,
the government must ensure steady land supply and low taxes and levies on housing.� In the lead-up to the state election HIA has called on both major parties to remove and/or reduce housing taxes such as stamp duty, and maintain ongoing land supply for housing. Other items on HIA’s wish list include: • Ending excessive regulations that increase red tape and push up the cost of new homes • Making finance more easily available for housing • Introducing better planning processes to reduce holding costs and delays; and • Increasing industry skills and training to ensure a future workforce.
Rate hold welcomed, but with a warning MORTGAGE Choice, Australia’s largest independently-owned mortgage broker, has applauded the Reserve Bank of Australia for holding off on a cash rate rise for another month, while warning new and existing borrowers to batten down the hatches for an almost certain run of rises in the near future. As talk continues of lenders looking to increase variable home loan interest rates independently of the cash rate cycle, the Reserve Bank made a mostly unexpected move last week by keeping the rate steady at 4.5 per cent for the fifth successive month. This occurs as a number of lenders are increasing rates on some or all of their fixed term loans.
“Another month with a steady cash rate is fantastic news for anyone repaying a variable home loan and those looking to enter the market,� said Mortgage Choice spokesperson, Kristy Sheppard. “However, it’s pretty much a given we’ll soon see an increase to variable rates prompted by either a Reserve Bank cash rate move or by lenders moving interest rates regardless. “The vast majority of economists say we’re looking at several rate rises by the end of 2011. Anyone who’s not aware of this and has, or is looking to take out, a variable rate home loan needs to catch up quickly on the information out there and prepare their budget now. “Another important trend receiving little attention
thanks to the heavy focus on variable rates is that fixed home loan interest rates have been creeping up over the past three weeks. “Our lender panel’s average interest rate for a three-year fixed term home loan – the most popular – hit rock bottom in mid-September and is very much on the way up. “We have 24 lenders on that panel and 11 of those increased rates on one or all of their fixed loans over the past three weeks. “A number of these lenders have already done so more than once. “This saw our panel’s average three-year fixed rate rise by 0.14 percentage points in the past three weeks, from 7.33% to 7.47%.�

angleseaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest hidden secret
2 bronwyn court, anglesea Whether it is the 5 star architecture, the expansive ocean views, the exclusive location or the immaculate presentation, you cannot help but be overwhelmed when you first view this magnificent property. The most intriguing thing is that the more time you spend there, the more detail you see and appreciate what a stunning piece of architecture this property is. Designed by Daryl Le Grew, ex Professor of Architecture at Deakin University, the 3 BR residence is located in an elevated position, in a court that only has 3 properties in it. The architect has optimized the panoramic view to capture both the ocean and the sky, and has allowed an abundance of natural light to infiltrate every room. The 4 sundecks allow you to have somewhere to sit at different times of the day, and the flow through ventilation captures the

range $2m - $2.2m afternoon sea breezes in summer - everything has been considered. The residence has a commercial grade construction with no expense spared when it was built and it is still in as new condition. The high quality garden has been previously included in the ABC Open Garden Program but as there is no lawn, it is relatively low maintenance now that it is established. It is difficult to do justice to this stunning property in such few words however, if you are looking in this price range and have an appreciation for the skill of a world class architect, then this property is a must see.

YOUR GUIDE TO BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION ON THE SURF COAST & BELLARINE
Burbank’s big award BURBANK has added yet another honour to its repertoire by taking out the ‘Best Integrated Housing Development Award’ for its Denton Mills project at the Master Builders Association of Victoria’s awards held at the Grand Hyatt, Melbourne. Once the former Denton Hat Mills factory, the heritagelisted Denton Mills development – spanning 95 metres along Nicholson Street, Abbotsford – is now a lively, mixed-use precinct that has transformed the once derelict site into a vibrant mix of residences, offices, and a café. “Burbank engaged Peddle Thorp architects to design a unique mixed-use development in harmony with original architect William Pitt’s design of circa 1890,” said Burbank managing director, Jarrod Sanfilippo. “Heritage features of the original steam powered hat factory, such as the façade and chimney, were restored. “The 61 residences at Denton Mills comprise a mix of one, two and three-bedroom apartments, lofts, and twostorey terrace style apartments, all surrounding a central courtyard. “Six offices are also incorporated into the development, as well as a ground floor café, which has become a focal point for residents and workers in the area. “An undercover car park for 145 cars at the rear of the original building and 90 bicycle racks complete the development.” This award-winning $36million development is yet another feather in Burbank’s cap, who, with more than two decades of experience under their belts and counting, continues to deliver innovative and quality products. “Burbank is highly committed to surpassing expectations, and we are thrilled to receive this award for Denton Mills,” Sanfilippo said.

Local art on show at Salt AN EXHIBITION of Anne Hastie’s latest works was opened at Salt Contemporary Art in Queenscliff on Sunday and will remain on display until October 25. Hastie is a highly qualified and experienced artist who first exhibited more than 30 years ago. She holds a Masters of Fine Art, and has travelled regularly to China, spending time in Beijing as an artist in residence with the Red Gate Gallery. While Hastie’s paintings can be described as abstract, her work is firmly based in the physical world. Her landscape references are imaginary and are based what can be seen and touched. The works on paper and canvas are created by poured inks, paint, varnishes and hand applied pigment, and the results are images that melt into many layers. Public lectures Salt Contemporary Arts will also inspire your mind next week with two public lectures presented by psychoanalyst, David Pereira, and social researcher, psychologist, and novelist, Hugh Mackay. Pereira will take up an ongoing exploration of the relation between psychoanalysis and the arts; this year through the writings of the Australian writer Gerald Murnane.
Murnane’s work creates for us a place from which to interrogate the nature of landscape in its dense coincidence of time and space, truth and fiction. This lecture is part of an ongoing collaboration between Salt Contemporary Art in Queenscliff and The Freudian School of Melbourne. Mackay will use his latest book to focus on us as individuals; delving into the heart of some of life’s big questions through his presentation, What Makes Us Tick? Pereira’s presentation will be on Saturday, October 23, from 2.30pm-4pm and for more information or to RSVP, email info@saltart.com.au or phone 5258 3988. Mackay will speak between 5pm-6.30pm on October 23 and information, or ticket inquiries, are available by emailing thebookshopatqueenscliff@gmail.com or phoning 5258 4496.

A ‘Sound’ investment… THE CATALINA Sounds label has gone from strength to strength since hitting the shelves only a few years ago. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – it ticks all the right boxes in respect to the look, value, quality, taste, provenance… everything. No wonder then with the previous 2009 release they won the outright trophy for Champion Sauvignon Blanc and Elite Gold Medal at the Air New Zealand Wine Awards. With this new 2010 Sauvignon Blanc release, winemaker Nina Stocker continues to impress with her deft touch and innate ability to craft seriously good wine. Her knowledge and talent belie her age and the future looks bright indeed for Catalina Sounds’ fantastic range of wines. Aready the Catalina Sounds brand has a very strong following among wine lovers, and these new releases featured below will definitely continue that trend… if you haven’t already, do yourself a favour!
Catalina Sounds Pinot Gris 2009 ($25)
It’s great to see the Marlborough region producing exciting examples of other grape varieties. This new release from Catalina Sounds shows a lovely clean, rich and aromatic style with subtle pear and apple characters typical of this variety, with enough richness and palate weight to make it a wonderful partner with food.

Last call for songwriters remote and regional areas who can’t always make it to a local heat, with an avenue to enter and showcase their musical talent. “Our current performance category winner, Tenielle, was discovered through last year’s Digital Heat and she has had an amazing year performing in New Zealand and Nashville, releasing her debut EP and signing a deal with Mushroom Music,” Manion said. “Being able to provide these wonderful opportunities for aspiring musicians and introducing their music to a wider audience is the whole focus of the Telstra Road to Tamworth programme.” Aspiring songwriters wishing to enter the songwriter category of the Telstra Road to Tamworth, and performers wishing to enter the digital heat have until midnight on Sunday, October 31. The winning digital heat performer and four best songwriters will be taken to Sydney to join twelve other heat winners to compete in ‘Boot Camp’, the next stage of the competition. ‘Boot Camp’ is a two-day musical mentoring workshop in Sydney that culminates with a live semifinal performance as part of the Sydney Telstra 500 V8 Supercars event on Saturday, December 4, 2010. The top seven performers and top three songwriters chosen at the semi-final will progress to the Telstra Road to Tamworth Final in January 2011 in Tamworth. For more details on how to enter visit www. telstra.com/trtt
TIME is running out for talented songwriters from the Surf Coast and Bellarine to stand up and get their fair share of the spotlight before entries close in this year’s national Telstra Road to Tamworth (TRTT) song writing category on October 31. The Telstra Road to Tamworth presents a valuable opportunity for unsigned songwriters to put their music in the hands of the right people, with a full 12-month music mentoring prize package on offer which includes a return trip to Nashville – the global home of songwriting. Australia’s hottest female trio and Telstra Road to Tamworth Ambassadors, The McClymonts, said this was a fantastic opportunity to make some headway in the competitive music industry. “Luke Webb, our current TRTT songwriter has just returned from Nashville where he worked alongside Australian artists Troy Cassar-Daley and Tommy Emmanuel in iconic songwriter venues like The Bluebird Café – that sort of thing just doesn’t happen without the backing of a great program like the Telstra Road to Tamworth,” said Brooke McClymont. In addition to the songwriting category, Telstra has continued their commitment to ensure regional performers can fulfil their musical dreams with the option to submit entries online in the Digital Heat category. Local Telstra area general manager, Jodi Manion, said the high volume of entries in last year’s inaugural Digital Heat reinforced the need to provide people in
Catalina Sounds Sauvignon Blanc 2010 ($25)
Having worked closely with the growers in the vineyards to ensure balanced fruit and controlled yields has reaped rewards here. The grapes took a little longer to reach full ripeness but this only added to the wine’s resultant balance and structure that was aided by this slower, longer maturation period. Nina’s definitely on track here (again) – beautifully pristine, fresh, fruit characters showing controlled zest and vibrancy all in the right measure with balanced acidity and length on the finish rounding off a lovely textural, complex wine. The weight, feel and purity of the flavours are real highlights…
Catalina Sounds Pinot Noir 2008 ($28)
The 2008 vintage for Pinot Noir in New Zealand was again very fine for the variety. I’ve seen some great wines coming through – all rich, lush, spicy, layered, complex wines with terrific depth and character. This is no exception and delights with bright, floral, silky dark cherry fruits and soft, plump mouth-feel…great value.

GEELONG-based clarinet player, David Gardner, accompanied by his premium jazz quartet, will pay tribute to Chicago-born maestro Benny Goodman at Drysdale’s Potato Shed this Sunday. The performance will act as a fundraiser for the St James Anglican Church Hall restoration and is presented in partnership with Jazz Australia. Clarinet legend and bandleader, the ‘King of Swing’ Goodman changed the face of popular music in the 1930s and ’40s, and his music remains timeless. A child prodigy, Goodman was once the world’s most celebrated jazz musician, exposing jazz to a wider audience, and creating one of the first racially-integrated musical groups in times of segregation – he launched many successful jazz careers. Bandleader Gardner spent 14 years with the RAAF Band, is head of woodwind at Christian College and has performed with the distinguished Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, Don Burrows, James Morrison and Buddy de Franco. Included in The David Gardner Swing Quartet is pianist John Shawcross who has toured with James Morrison, drummer Daniel Zampatti who is head of percussion at Christian College, and bassist Isaac Barter who is integral to Melbourne’s jazz scene. The David Gardner Swing Quartet will perform some of the greatest tunes in the history of popular music including Dinah, Body and Soul, Poor

Octoberprest launch
Time to face the music
BY ALISON MARTIN OCTOBERPREST is the latest exhibition showcasing the diversity of local artisans and will be launched at Drysdaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 135 Gallery on the weekend. The new exhibition will be officially opened on Sunday, October 17 and will feature a stunning collection of work by some of the Bellarineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most talented artists. Acclaimed Swan Bay glass artist, Vicci Crowley-Clough, will show her slumped and crafted platters, bowls and even a Christmas tree. Stunning ocean floor photographic images by Ocean Groveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pasqualina Grosso depict the treasures of the ocean floor. The photographs began as research for Grossoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paintings and took on a life of their own as she created the series, with her traditional SLR camera and without the use of any digital enhancement. Drysdaleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s John McClumpha will display his finely detailed lino prints and etchings, which have been inspired by the Bellarine landscape. McClumpha has been developing the broad techniques of printmaking under the guidance of Gaye Nieuwenhof and demonstrates his progress in the Octoberprest collection. 135 Gallery is also the working studio of lino print artist, Pip Williams, who will feature some of her peninsula-themed works in the exhibition. Williamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; new series has been inspired by her earlier years in St Leonards and include sailing scenes across the Bluff. The opening will be held from 3pm on Sunday at the gallery, 135 Andersons Road, Drysdale and the exhibition is expected to run until December.
Pip Williams will officially launch 135 Galleryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new exhibition â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Octoberprestâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; featuring glass art, photography and lino prints on Sunday.

Open day to showcase local talent Opera in the Otways BY GAIL CHRISFIELD
OPERA in the Otways is back, with Cape Otway Lightstation presenting the Victorian Opera in a gala concert of the most-loved operatic and Broadway favourites in the spectacular surrounds of the lighthouse. At Opera in the Otways this Saturday, Victorian Opera’s music director Richard Gill will conduct some of the State’s finest voices, accompanied by a full orchestra for a concert of popular arias, duets, and ensemble pieces. The state opera company’s programme will include songs from household favourites Rigoletto, La bohème, The Magic Flute and Carmen, plus Broadway hits Oklahoma, The King and I, Oliver, A Little Night Music, and The Threepenny Opera. The gala will feature a choir of the region’s school children who will perform on the day alongside professional artists who have appeared in Victorian Opera’s recent, acclaimed productions of Julius Caesar and The Turn of the Screw. Richard Gill has promised a rousing performance at Australia’s most significant lighthouse. “Performing in regional Victoria
THE BELLARINE will certainly be the place for all things artistic on November 27 and 28 as Point Lonsdale’s popular Totally Shattered Glass Studio hosts its second annual open studio. Artworks by local artists, including renowned glass artist and studio owner, Vicci Crowley-Clough, will be on display and available to purchase. A series of demonstrations throughout the weekend will also showcase the skills involved in glass-making, basket-weaving and jewellery making. “I don’t usually open my studio to the public so this is a rare opportunity to come in and see what we do here,” said Crowley-Clough. “Last year’s inaugural event was hugely successful and took us completely by surprise. “We’re more prepared this year with a broad range of works on offer, including glass, mosaics, jewellery, Christmas decorations, baskets and paintings. “Many pieces were created by my students who attend weekly classes each Tuesday or Wednesday. I am really looking forward to giving these 12 beautiful people the chance to show off their skills.” Totally Shattered Glass Studio is located on the QueenscliffPortarlington Road, Point Lonsdale, and will be open from 10am to 4pm on November 27 and 28. Entry is free. Local artist Vicci Crowley-Clough shows one of her works in progress, a glass ladder that has since been completed for an exhibition currently under way at the Geelong Town Hall.
is one of the most vital aspects of Victorian Opera’s work. We want to inspire a whole generation of artists and audiences throughout all of Victoria,” he said. “This is a great event which people from Melbourne and regional Victoria have embraced and in the Lightstation grounds we can give them an even better experience in another iconic and equally beautiful Otways location,” said Lightstation manager, Paul Thompson. In addition to Victorian Opera there will be a fun programme of roving performers and main-stage entertainment, highlighting some of the region’s talented performers. Free activities will be provided for children.” Opera in the Otways is synonymous with good food and wine, and this year people will be spoilt for choice. The region’s best produce, wine, beer and hand-made gourmet delicacies will be served at a Paddock to Plate celebration at the Lightstation on Saturday. Tickets to Opera in the Otways are available online at www.ticketmaster. com.au or from the Lightstation.

Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival returns GEELONG Performing Arts Centreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Poppykettle Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Festival returns this month with a two-day programme packed full of workshops, singing, dancing, playing and imagining. The festival, now in its 29th year, remains Geelongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s premier childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s festival, dedicated to promoting and celebrating performing arts for young people. Hundreds of children from primary schools and kindergartens throughout the region will attend the festival next week to be held on Thursday, October 21 and Friday, October 22. Activities will take place in Little Malop Street, GPAC, the Geelong Library, Geelong Art Gallery and Johnstone Park. The fun kicks off on Thursday, October 21 with Kinder Day from 10.30am to 1.30pm. Children will be encouraged to play, make, create and laugh as they join in a range of free activities fun by kindergartens from across the region, as well as the library and gallery. There will also be performances from the band Playing with Snails, as well as local primary and secondary children.
Primary Day on Friday, October 22 will be chock-full of activities, from dancing to hula hooping, singing to stilt walking and puppetry. The Poppykettle Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Festival originally began when the Geelong Corio Teacher Librarians Association decided to hold a literary day for children. Held as part of the weeklong Springding Festival, the event was inspired by local author Robert Ingpenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s award winning childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s book The Voyage of the Poppykettle, first published in 1980. This much loved story about a group of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;hairy Peruviansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; setting sail from Peru to discover Australia has recently been rereleased for a new generation of children to enjoy. Geelong born and raised, Ingpen is a world renowned author and artist who has written and/or illustrated more than 100 works, including the Poppykettle sequel The Unchosen Land. Nearly 30 years after the first Poppykettle Festival, Ingpen remains actively involved in the annual celebration. Kinder Day is a free event open to the public, while Primary Schools Day is open to participating schools.
Mathinna comes to GPAC
LOCAL dance-lovers can look forward to a poignant and thought-provoking end to the 2010 Alcoa Theatre Season at the Geelong Performing Arts Centre with Bangarra Dance Theatre presenting its multi-award winning Mathinna. Inspired by a young girl's journey between two cultures, Mathinna traces the history of a young Aboriginal girl removed from her traditional life and adopted into western colonial society before being returned to the fragments of her original heritage. Based on a true story, Mathinna became the archetype of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;stolen childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Bangarraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s artistic director, |Stephen Page, and his performers recreate her powerful story of vulnerability and searching in an era of confusion and intolerance. It is a powerful work of visual storytelling charged with beauty and an aesthetic empathy. Bangarra Dance Theatre is an internationally renowned Australian dance company fuelled by the spirit, energy and inspiration derived from the culture, values and traditions of Indigenous Australians. In 2009, Mathinna won Helpmann Awards for Best Ballet or Dance Work, Best Choreography in a Dance or Physical Theatre Production and Best Original Score. Experience Mathinna in The Playhouse at GPAC for three shows only, on Friday, October 22 at 8pm and Saturday, October 23 at 1pm and 8pm.

A trio too good to miss Tuesday 12 October 2010
A small piano trio, Vitebsk, by Aaron Copland, evokes this most American of composersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Jewish inheritance. Surprisingly the trio uses the modern language of dissonance to render a traditional Jewish folk-song and the effect is strikingly powerful and characteristic of Jewish chant. Finlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous composer, Sibelius, is the Nordic representative in this programme with a tender and nostalgic piano trio composed in honour of the idyllic seaside town, Lovisa, where Sibelius spent his summer holidays as a boy. Trio Anima Mundi is a Melbournebased piano trio with players Kenji Fujimura (piano), Rochelle Bryson (violin) and Miranda Brockman (cello).
THE FINAL concert in Trio Anima Mundiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2010 â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Nordic Lightsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; concert series will be held at St Pauls Anglican Church in Geelong next weekend. The concert series features music which captures the essence of the three composersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homelands, with rhythms and melodies based on folksong and folklore. Bedrich Smetanaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Piano Trio in G minor is the centrepiece of the concert and transports the listener to Bohemia (Czechoslovakia) with its poignancy and drama. The Trio was written in memory of the composerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eldest daughter who died at the age of five and although turbulent, the trio is interspersed with melodic lines of great simplicity and sweetness.
The Trio takes its subscription series to three centres in Victoria each year and has been praised for its â&#x20AC;&#x153;...sumptuous string duets that surge out with heartfelt
magniloquenceâ&#x20AC;? and for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;... voluminous riches of the keyboardâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;?. The concert will take place at St Pauls Anglican Church, Latrobe Terrace,
Geelong at 3pm on Sunday, October 17. For more information and bookings and inquiries, phone 5368 2325 or email info@trioanimamundi.com

Local artists on display THERE are just two days remaining to see more than 50 works of art from local artists who entered the Surf Coast Shire’s 2011 calendar competition. The works are currently on display next to Endota Spa in Torquay Central – with some available to purchase. Surf Coast Shire chief executive officer, Mark Davies, councillor Rose Hodge and local artist Kyla Vinton judged the 12 winners which will appear in
the calendar. There is one position left, however, and that is on the front of the calendar. Which piece of art is featured on the cover will be decided by a people’s vote – which will remain open until the exhibition closes at 4pm tomorrow. The sale of individual pieces of art is at the discretion of each artist, and if a sale is made, all proceeds will go directly to the artist.
Surf Coast Shire councillor Rose Hodge, shire chief executive officer Mark Davies and local artist Kyla Vinton judged the entries for the calendar.

Market View with tracey watts
The US is no canary SINCE well before the Global Financial Crisis, the US has been a source of concern for a select few economists, analysts and commentators who recognised the ponzi nature of its economy. Since the GFC, amid a mainstream view that the US economy is recovering, those same analysts have consistently said there has been no US recovery at all. The release of US jobs data last week has only highlighted the precarious position of the US economy. Employment fell by 95,000 in September while the official unemployment rate remained unchanged at 9.6 per cent but this barely scratches the surface of the US jobs picture. To begin with, a more realistic measure of the unemployment rate is U-6 which includes people that want a job but gave up officially looking, people with parttime jobs that want a full-time job, people who dropped off the unemployment rolls because their unemployment benefits ran out etc. U-6 is now at 17.1 per cent increasing a staggering 0.4 per cent from last month. Structural unemployment, defined as those people unemployed for more than 27 weeks now stands at 6.4 million. To give this number some perspective, it is a measure that has very rarely ever gone over two million. People working part-time for economic reasons increased a staggering 612,000 taking to 9.5 million the number of workers who wish to work more hours. The significance of this figure is that there are 9.5 million workers whose hours need to be increased before companies actually start hiring new workers. Many economists suggest that the unemployment situation is continuing to deteriorate with the US suffering a permanent destruction of jobs in industries such as housing and finance and no discernible drivers for new jobs. Tracey Watts is a director of Third Wave Group. This is an abridged version of their weekly Tidal Report which can be accessed at www.thirdwavegroup.com.au

When would I refinance my mortgage? WHENEVER it makes financial sense to do so. Heard about mortgage refinancing? In the past, most people who took out a mortgage doggedly continued with it until they had paid it off. These days, people refinance their Mortgage much more frequently. The average duration of a home loan in Australia now is just 4-5 years. Here we look at some of the reasons people in Australia refinance their Home Loan.
Mortgage refinancing reasons: lower rate
The most common reason for people to refinance their Mortgage is to get a better deal. But be careful you don’t become interest rate-fixated. When you refinance your Home Loan, you need to consider fees and charges as well as the interest rate. You often have to pay charges for exiting your current home loan, plus charges for taking out the new mortgage. You need to be sure that in refinancing your Home Loan that you’ll be better off in the long run after taking into account all costs.
Mortgage refinancing reasons: more flexibility
Many people only discover the full details about their Mortgage when it’s too late. They try to do something and get told by their Lender that either they can’t do it, or they will incur a hefty charge if they do. An example is a Redraw Facility - the ability to pay extra money into a Mortgage and then redraw it later. This feature is not possible with a Basic Home Loan, so many people refinance their Mortgage to give themselves this sort of increased flexibility.
Mortgage refinancing reasons: renovation
If you carry out renovations, it often makes sense to refinance your Mortgage and take out a construction loan so you only pay interest as building progresses. Once construction is over, it might make sense to refinance your Home Loan again so that you consolidate the total amount you owe into a loan that minimises
your interest bill, while giving you a degree of liquidity.
Mortgage refinancing reasons: home equity
Over recent years in the property market houses have appreciated at a significant rate. e.g. a home you bought for $300,000 five years ago, might now be worth $500,000. Refinancing your Mortgage with a Home Equity Loan might let you tap into that extra $200,000 equity.
Mortgage refinancing reasons: defaulting
Some people find they have borrowed more than they can comfortably repay, and they’re in danger of defaulting. There’s no shame in that. But don’t suffer in silence. If you’re having trouble making your Mortgage repayments, talk to Geelong Financial Group and we can investigate if a more suitable product is available.

ONKYO 9.2 CHANNEL NETWORK AV RECEIVER //
E GRILL
// Unique for an electric barbeque, the egrill uses halogen tube elements which emit intense radiant infrared heat. // The Easy Way to Enjoy Home Networking & Distributed Audio The TX-NR1008 is an upper-mid-range A/V powerhouse designed to give you maximum set-up flexibility in the home. Its 9.2 speaker channels let you enjoy a multi channel source in your main room, plus powered audio in two other rooms. Or you can use the extra channels to take full advantage of the new surround dimensions of Audyssey DSX™ and Dolby® Pro Logic® IIz. Other processing highlights include DTS-HD Master Audio™ and Dolby® TrueHD for pristine lossless audio on Blu-ray Disc, and HDMI® upscaling of all video sources to 1080p with Faroudja DCDi Cinema™. As a network A/V receiver compatible with Windows® 7 and DLNA, the TX-NR1008 lets you stream audio from your PC or from internet radio channels sourced through vTuner. Set up and calibration are easy and accurate, thanks to ISF video calibration, a new overlaid graphical on-screen display, and Audyssey room correction and equalization. Bi-amping capability and a smorgasbord of the latest connections complete what is an outstanding entertainment package.
The egrill is hot enough to cook steak within minutes, and large enough for a small family. The egrill has two tube elements containing tungsten filament suspended in halogen gas. Electricity is conducted through the tungsten filament which slowly evaporates, the halogen gas carries the evaporated tungsten particles back to the filament and re-deposits them, giving the elements a longer life span. The egrill cooking system offers high heat output using infrared tube elements and reflectors. The infrared system emulates the sun’s rays, where heat is transferred and absorbed by an object without physical contact. With this system the infrared heat penetrates food more thoroughly resulting in more even cooking and longer heat retention, A conventional gas grill heats first by direct heat transfer and second by circulating hot air around the food. This process often causes dry food from the hot air. Infrared energy has the opposite effect, sending the infrared heat deep into the food leaving the moisture intact. This process enhances flavor and creates a succulence that is difficult to replicate with other cooking systems.

Free DVD to help stroke survivors STROKE is a major cause of death and a leading cause of disability in Australia. Stroke survivors need significant support before they can return to their daily lives â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and research shows that many are at increased risk of developing depression. A new, free DVD, produced by beyondblue: the national depression initiative with the National Stroke Foundation was launched last week by Governor-General, Quentin Bryce AC. The Tackling depression after stroke DVD features interviews with stroke survivors, their families and their carers, and a psychiatrist who all speak candidly about how depression commonly affects stroke survivors and their carers.
Clinic to be held in Forrest OTWAY Health is holding diabetes and spirometry (breathing) tests in Forrest next week. The local community health nurse will be holding the clinic at Forrest Hall to provide individual support and education to those living with or at risk of diabetes. The nurse â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who will run the clinic from 1pm-4pm on Thursday, October 21 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; will also be offering spirometry testing to assist with the assessment of lung function. Spirometry testing requires a referral from your doctor. The cost for the appointments are $11.20 for the spirometry test (with results faxed to the referring GP) and $5 for the diabetes support. To book for the clinic, phone Otway Health reception on 5237 8500.
The DVD will provide helpful insights for people who have experienced stroke and will be a useful training tool for GPs, counsellors and other health professionals. The DVD features an interview with beyondblue research adviser, Professor David Clarke, who talks about the signs of depression after stroke and effective treatments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Up to two thirds of people who have a stroke will experience depression and although it is more common in the first year after the stroke, stroke survivors, friends and family need to be aware of the symptoms of depression so treatment is accessed at an early stage,â&#x20AC;? said Professor Clarke.
National Stroke Foundation chief executive officer, Dr Erin Lalor, said stroke results in many changes for a person, but not all of them are physical changes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Stroke can make it difficult to do many of the things we take for granted â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like moving and speaking, but stroke can also affect the way people think and feel,â&#x20AC;? Dr Lalor said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Depression is very common â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one in five people will experience depression at some time in their adult lifetime. For people recovering from a stroke, this figure is even higher. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope to raise awareness of this littlerecognised, but common effect of stroke in the
community and hope this improves the quality of life of stroke survivors and those who care for them.â&#x20AC;? beyondblue chief executive officer, Leonie Young, hopes the DVD will help raise awareness of depression after stroke and assist people to get the help they need. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Depression can often go unrecognised and undiagnosed in people who have had a stroke because the two disorders have many symptoms in common,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to notice the signs of depression and seek help early â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the sooner the better.â&#x20AC;? The free DVD can be ordered online at www. beyondblue.org.au or by phoning 1300 22 4636.
Looking after your lungs 2010 is the year of the lung and marks the first World Spirometry Day, which will be celebrated this Thursday, October 14. World Spirometry Day aims to raise awareness about lung health, how to identify that you may have a lung condition and steps to take to prevent contracting a lung condition. Tunstall Healthcare, the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading provider of telehealthcare, is instrumental in the introduction of telehealth both in Australia and around the world, to manage chronic conditions affecting the lungs such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and lung cancer. Telehealth units are used to monitor a patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vital signs from the comfort of their own home, reducing the need for regular GP and hospital visits.
A telehealth unit can monitor vital sings.
The patient is reminded to take their vital signs, including air flow, on a regular basis. This data is transmitted to a monitoring centre for review, with abnormal readings passed on to the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s GP or specialist for follow up. This allows doctors to intervene and quickly adjust the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behaviour or medication. Consequently, studies conducted on telehealth have found that this quick intervention drastically reduces emergency hospital admissions and duration of hospital stay. By engaging patients in their own health, telehealth also assists people to better understand and manage their condition as well as reduce disruption to their life created by ongoing doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appointments.

Cancer Council issues warning on breast checks
Celebrate Nude Food Day INTERNATIONALLY renowned chef, Jamie Oliver, has thrown his support behind National Nude Food Day by pledging to bring a nutritious, rubbish-free lunch to work tomorrow. With Wednesday, October 13 known as Nude Food Day, Oliver has joined more than 600 schools who have registered â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with over half a million Australians expected to take part, proactively working towards healthy bodies and a healthy planet by packing a nutritious, rubbish-free lunch. Nude Food Day, as part of Nutrition Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Nutrition Week, has been developed in response to the increasing concern surrounding two of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most critical issues: the importance of good nutrition for optimal health, and assigning a greater commitment to minimising our environmental footprint. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the 2010 theme for National Nutrition Week being â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Falling in Love with Food â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Healthy Food; Healthy Planetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, National Nude Food Day is a perfect fit â&#x20AC;&#x201C; weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited to be in partnership with such an inspired awareness campaign,â&#x20AC;? said Aloysa Hourigan, national spokesperson for Nutrition Australia. Nude Food Day is also an opportunity to raise funds for Nutrition Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Healthy Schools Programme, which will ensure Australian students continue to be educated

about the importance of healthy eating habits throughout the year. Until the end of October, Smash Enterprisesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Nude Food Movers is contributing a portion of its sales from its Rubbish Free Lunch Box, to the Healthy Schools Programme. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The launch of Nude Food Day is very exciting for us, as it represents everything we stand for; encouraging Australians to be healthy and to look after their environment,â&#x20AC;? said Dale Harbinson, managing director of Smash Enterprises. Members of Parliament have also thrown their support behind National Nude Food Day, with the majority of Ministers for Health and Education in each state and territory helping to promote the event within their departments. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I support the initiative of Nude Food Movers and Nutrition Australia in developing National Nude Food Day to promote healthy eating and to help reduce the waste associated with disposable food packaging,â&#x20AC;? said Katy Gallagher, Minister for Health, ACT. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nude Food Day provides a valuable opportunity for schools, groups and workplaces to focus on taking action on these important issues.â&#x20AC;?

AS THE world turns pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Cancer Council Victoria is urging women to beware of companies offering breast imaging services as a means of detecting breast cancer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here in Victoria there is a growing number of companies promoting various breast scanning technologies which they claim can help find breast cancer,â&#x20AC;? said Cancer Council Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s manager of cancer screening, Kate Broun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These services often target young women and are often aggressively marketed as being â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;safeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;non-invasiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;comfortableâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the implication being they are a viable alternative to mammographic screening. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mammography is the only screening method for which there is top level evidence that it saves lives. Women need to be very wary of claims that other technologies are equally or more effective at detecting breast cancer,â&#x20AC;? In April this year Cancer Council WA released a report looking at a range of breast imaging services being promoted in the state. The report found insufficient evidence to support the safety or efficacy of the technologies and concluded that until

such evidence becomes available, women should use proven strategies for the detection of breast cancer, such as mammography and being breast aware. The fact is, Australia has a very effective free national breast cancer screening programme. All women aged 50 to 69 are invited for a mammogram (breast X-ray) every two years through BreastScreen, and women aged 40 to 49 and 70 or over may attend if they wish. Cancer Council encourages women of all ages to be â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;breast awareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; which means being familiar with the normal look and feel of your breasts and promptly reporting any changes to your doctor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our chief concern is a situation in which a woman relies on one of these unproven technologies and later develops breast cancer which is found too late for successful treatment,â&#x20AC;? Broun said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While we acknowledge that mammography is not perfect, it is the most reliable and effective early detection tool we have for breast cancer.â&#x20AC;? Breast cancer is the most common cancer affecting women in Victoria. Women with questions about breast cancer can call the Cancer Council Helpline 131 120.

MOON RIVER WEEKLY STARS With three planets in your relationship zone, it’s time to focus on those around you. You’ll make powerful personal connections if you are less self-absorbed and more involved with others. Don’t take criticism too personally [especially on Thursday and Sunday]. Fireworks and footstamping are out, and cool compromise is in!
As Saturn and the Sun move through your domestic zone, home is definitely where the heart is. Focus on ways you can bring more stability and sunshine into your home. Have some family relationships become ragged around the edges? Sunday’s stars give you the energy boost [and insight] you need to restore communication and sort out problems.
You’re keen to get a romance moving in a positive new direction. But Venus is retrograde [until Nov 19] so you’ll have to make major concessions to get a relationship going – or to keep an established one on firm ground. A stubborn attitude will only slow things down. Ask yourself “Am I being determined or just plain pig-headed?”
Lions can be a lazy lot, but rickety relationships will only improve if you get off your beautiful backside and get to work! Plus romance will blossom if you treat your partner [or potential partner] like a Prince or Princess. The Sun links up with Mercury on Sunday, when you’ll be in sparkling social form and at your conversational best.
Geminis are the gadabouts of the zodiac - you’re always in such a rush. This week, slow down, and take the time to listen to those around you [particularly at work]. Consultation and cooperation will get you a lot further than being slapdash. The Sun hooks up with Mercury on Sunday which favours friends, fun and fabulous conversation.
Don’t confuse important issues with trivial ones. If you make mountains out of molehills, then you’ll end up feeling stressed and exhausted. You’re in the mood to talk this weekend – especially about money. If your finances are in a mess, take the time to discuss your options with a professional. Study and travel are highlighted on Sunday.

One of your endearing qualities is that you look for the best in everyone. True friends bring love and lucky opportunities into your life, whereas fair-weather friends will just take advantage of your sweet nature and lead you up the primrose path to trouble. Between now and November 19, you need to be discerning - and learn to say no!
Don’t blame others if your goals and dreams aren’t progressing according to plan. Perhaps you are the saboteur Scorpio? Look within to discover how old belief systems [and ineffective communication] are holding you back. With three planets in harmonious Libra, it’s time to bring more balance and relaxation into your hectic life.
You’re full of enthusiasm but don’t overdo it. Talk is cheap. Make sure you back up your bright ideas with plenty of productive action. It’s time to walk your talk! Friday is your dream day of the week, as fabulous Moon/Jupiter aspects send good times and lucky opportunities in your direction. On Sunday, the power of the group is on your side.
Is your self confidence being affected by problems with an authority figure or work colleague? Honest communication will smooth over difficulties, but you’ll have to be the one to swallow your pride and initiate peace talks. Be inspired by birthday great Eleanor Roosevelt “No-one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”
Focus on your Aquarian aspirations for the future. Impossible dreams can come true with plenty of passion, planning and persistence, so start making your wish list ASAP. Avoid the urge to splurge [especially mid-week]. A little retail therapy is fine, as long as you can afford it. If funds are low, then find ways to have fun at home – for free.
Intimate relationships are highlighted however, if you don’t improve your communication skills, then passion will be replaced with problems. Sunday is the best day to talk things through and get to the bottom of unresolved issues. Singles – you’re in the mood for love but you need to take the lead. No more procrastinating Pisces!

Renwick on the rampage TASMANIAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S Hamish Renwick has taken backto-back Ocean and Earth Teenage Rampage titles in the Boys 16 and Under division at Jan Juc. The weekend provided ideal conditions and Jan Juc turned it on for the event, with great three to four-foot waves on both Saturday and Sunday. Renwick, who competes regularly in Victorian waters, was a standout throughout the whole contest, winning every heat he was in. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m stoked to go back-to-back here at Jan Juc,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Victoria is a bit like a home away for home for me, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad I took it out.â&#x20AC;? In an action-packed and low scoring final, a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;double interferenceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; was called late in the heat on Renwick and local favorite, Harry Mann. Coming in third and fourth position respectively were Jackson Wylie (Point Lonsdale) and Jamie Powell (Jan Juc). In the 16 years and under girls, Nikki Van Dijk (Phillip Island) continued her amazing run
of competition results by taking out the final in dominant form, scoring 12.67 out of a possible 20. After taking out the Rip Curl Gromsearch two weeks ago at Jan Juc, Van Dijk was in scintillating form â&#x20AC;&#x153;The waterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting warmer so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot more enjoyable surfing at the moment,â&#x20AC;? the star teenager said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were some really good waves out there today and yesterday.â&#x20AC;? Joining Van Dijk in the final was Kally Laity (Sandy Point), Zoe Clarke (Jan Juc) and Matilda McLellan (Point Leo) who placed second, third and fourth respectively. The top four surfers in the male divisions and the top two surfers in the female divisions qualify for the Ocean & Earth International Teenage Rampage to be held on January 28, 29 and 30 next year, where they will line up against qualifiers from around the globe.

WITH MARGOT SMITH
WE HAD another week with more sunshine than rain – although the rain was extremely heavy when it came. It seems that a few of the men choose to abandon play on Wednesday and I’m sure lots of us would have done the same and once again you have to be out early to get the best weather. So if you want to play in the good conditions during Open Week we still have some gaps in the morning fields. Get your entry into the office this week. Throughout the year we have had a few good winning streaks - two in a week, three over two weeks - but none can match the purple patch of Judy Talbot. She has now won five Thursday’s on the trot and a couple of weekend wins thrown in. She also won the touring competition this last weekend, which is quite prestigious in some circles. Let’s hope the form continues for Open Week. Midweek results Wednesday was stableford for the men. Bernie Dalton had the best seniors score for the day with 40 points,

Men’s competition Players rode out the storm on Wednesday with everyone finishing their round for the par event. As the thunder and lightning moved in, the final groups made their way up the 18th. Mick McLean won the event with 4 up while Bob Spurling was runner-up with 3 up. Peter Gray won NTP on the 7th while Craig Hunter took the honors on the 13th. Saturday was a sensational day for golf, and more than 200 players took advantage of the fantastic conditions. John Williamson obviously thought it was a perfect day for golf, winning the medal with a nett 66, while Geoff Caddy won A grade with a 70. Alan Schultz and Dion Gilbert won NTP’s on the front nine, while Dean Bernasconi was closest on the 13th and Andy Samu the 17th.

Weekend competition With no football to contend with and fine weather predicted the field was almost full for Saturday and the scores were very competitive. Darren Turner had the best score with 7 up winning A grade. In B grade, Ross Robins won the countback from Brent
McDonald with 6 up, and in C grade, David Steele won from Matt Donkers with 4 up. Mary Funder won the ladies with 3 up. NTPs were won by Arthur Jearum, Richard Gribben, Mike Grossman and Frank Fowler and Paul Lata scored an eagle on the 8th. Pam Hill had the day’s best score in the Stableford event on Sunday. Pam had 43 points to win the ladies event. Other winners were Barry Coleman with 38 points in A grade, Bryan James with 39 points in B grade and David Macvean with 37 points in C grade. NTPs were Brent McDonald, Ross Duff, David Adamson and Glenda Deans. Meanwhile, the touring party at Port Fairy was able to contribute to that club’s legacy fundraising day on Saturday and take home some of the prizes. Barb Cook had the longest drive and Marg Hales claimed a nearest the pin, and we probably would have had some more if some had remembered they were in the daily competition! Judy Talbot scored 37 points to win the touring event but it wasn’t enough to beat the locals. Good golfing!
Women’s competition A fine but chilly morning greeted the women for the stroke medal comp on Thursday. One of our younger members Danielle Walker won the medal with a fabulous nett 69. Juggling the school run and getting to the tee on time is not easy, so well done to Danielle. Gillian Connelly was runner-up with a 72. Beryl Westbrook won NTP on the 7th while Anne Taylor hit a great shot to win NTP on the 13th. The women played a stableford event on Saturday and Linda Turner took the honours for the second consecutive week, winning with 36 points. A reminder that on October 21, there will be a special day to raise money for Breast Cancer research. Players are encouraged to wear a touch of pink for the stableford event and pink balls will be given to players in return for an $8 donation. Raffle tickets are also being sold in the pro shop with some fabulous beauty packages as prizes.
Senior Amateur Championships Next week the The Sands will host the 2010 Senior Amateur Championship of Victoria. The event is for players over the age of 55 with a handicap below 25. The championship is a 54-hole stroke event played over Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Just when I thought it would be safe not to mention the name Deyen Lawson after weeks of hogging the limelight, he records another great victory. It has been a wonderful few months for Deyen with numerous victories around the state. His latest feat came at Torquay on the weekend winning the men’s open championship. Deyen scored rounds of 71 and 68 on Saturday to finish equal with another young player who has recently joined The Sands, Luke Allen. Luke had rounds of 68 and 71 to force the championship into a play-off. Deyen eventually prevailed winning on the second play-off hole. Special mention to Matt Stewart who had rounds of 79 and 76!!!
but the best scores for the day were from Warren Heinnen and Frank Denahy both with 41 points winning A and C grade respectively. Tony Leeds won B grade with 37 points. NTPs were Peter Hester, Alan Nanscawen and Colin Favre. The women are playing stroke every week in the lead up to Open Week – which will clearly be good for their golf. Best score for the day was Myrell McConachy winning Div 2 with nett 72. Judy Talbot as previously mentioned had her win with nett 75 in Div 1 and Helen Smith won Div 3 with nett 79. Jill Emerson won the putting competition with 32 putts and the NTPs were won by Sue Britnell, Margot Parton, Jo Mehegan from Rosebud and Dot Hermann.

News in brief Twilight bowls THE EVER-POPULAR Torquay Bowls Club twilighters hit the greens again on November 3, and early bookings suggest the events will be as popular as ever. Last year the club had as many as 100 wannabe bowlers on the greens for the Wednesday evening fun events. This year, the series will run until the end of March. Players who were involved last year will be given priority in filling the rinks this year, but there will be some places available for newcomers. This year there will also be a Twilighters championship up for grabs as well as the annual challenge to the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pennant bowlers. The series will be sponsored by Barry Plant Real Estate, Alcoa and Crowne Plaza. Anyone interested should contact Ian
Gribble on 5264 8120..

The top rink on the day with 20 shots up was M Kemp (Skip), J Christie, D Millard and B McCasker.

Anglesea River in light of the recent fish deaths and to discuss the long term management of the estuary and its entrance.”
Fishing on the coast Regardless of the situation in the Anglesea River, fishing on the Surf Coast is definitely improving at the moment. Our oceans are starting to fire right up, with good snapper catches being taken of up to two and three kilograms by those getting out in their boats Salmon are still around with some very good catches being taken both of the beaches and the rocks. From Point Roadknight onwards good catches are being reported. Some reports from the Lorne Pier have also been received with some nice salmon recently being caught there. Painkalac Creek is also producing some nice bream I have been informed. The weather is starting to improve and more and more people are starting to dust off their rod and reels, ready their boats and get out there to catch their big catch. From Torquay to Queenscliff, if you are lucky enough to have a boat and the weather continues to improve, the fishing is definetly on the improve. There are truly some early good catches to be had. This week’s report reflects this.
Big catch reminder A reminder, if you have some real catches you want to send in, please forward them to the email address below, with the type of fish, weight, length, location and your name. I am more than happy to place your photos in My Big catch. Email photos to mybigcatch@bigpond.com

THIS week has been one of continuing sadness as the third fish kill has occurred in the Anglesea River. I have tried to explain over the last few weeks what has been happening and still continues to happen. The following is a press release from the Corangamite Catchment Management Authority. It reads: “The Surf Coast Shire, Corangamite Catchment Management Authority (CMA), Environment Protection Authority (EPA) and the Department of Health have been working together to investigate the effects of an extended period of low pH (highly acidic) water within Anglesea River estuary. Constant monitoring has been taking place by Surf Coast Shire and the Corangamite CMA since the first report of fish deaths and EPA water quality tests on 13 September, and the pH has been consistently low. Signs will continue to be placed around the estuary advising caution until the pH returns to a suitable range. Fisheries Victoria is also concerned about the fish deaths and is working with the responsible agencies to determine the exact cause and any steps that can be taken to mitigate further deaths. The natural source of the acidic water is the surrounding peat swamps further up the catchment. This is not a new phenomenon and there are several well documented instances of this occurring, particularly when a long dry period is ended with heavy rains. The last major event was in 2001. Corangamite CMA chief executive officer, Gareth Smith, said it was hoped that a further strong rainfall event would help flush the acidic water from the system and allow it to naturally re-equilibrate as it had done so in the past. Agency representatives will meet later this month to discuss future directions for management of the
