Student planting program aims to provide habitat for native wildlife

By BLAIR THOMSON STUDENTS from Trinity College joined thousands of people on the Border and across the nation by planting trees for National Tree Day last week. About 50 primary school students were joined by Charles Sturt University students and staff in

planting 1000 trees, shrubs and grasses at the Thurgoona campus. Several other sites including Padman Park, House Creek, the Bonegilla Migrant Centre and Wodonga Catholic College also had vegetation planted by various local groups. Nature Conservation Trust con-

servation manager Nigel Jones said the planting at CSU would bolster wildlife numbers at the site. “There’s an education factor here today,” he said. “These kids know a lot about the environment and the animals in the Thurgoona region already so it’s a hands-on approach on how

they can help those animals. “The aim of it is to build up the shrub and understory and the habitat for smaller birds which are getting bullied out of the area by Noisy Miners at the moment.” Trinity College has a strong focus on land and environment matters.

Mr Jones said the hands-on approach ensured the students enjoyed the day. “That’s half the purpose of today, to have fun,” he said. “It will help them to appreciate the environment into the future and appreciate the natural parts of Thurgoona.”

City finally gives backing to Olympic cycle track

Velodrome win By TREVOR JACKSON TRACK cycling is set to return to Lavington velodrome after Albury Council granted Lavington Panthers junior cycling club a 10 year racing license at the Pearsall Street facility. Being the only Olympic size velodrome between Melbourne and Sydney the track is seen as a perfect opportunity for the club to foster up and coming talent in preparation for competing at big city meets.

“It’s very exciting for not just the club but cycling in the area in general,” president of the Lavington Panthers Cycling Club, Jeff Drury said. “To know the council is behind us for a minimum of 10 years is just the best thing we could be told. “For them to say they’re backing the maintenance side of it, they’re going to work with us to upgrade it, that is just the best news we could ever get.

“It shows people working together to make cycling a growing sport in this area.” Mr Drury said the club’s secretary treasurer, Russell Smith had worked tirelessly over the last two years to ensure racing returned to the venue to allow the club to grow and prosper. “It gives us a lot of security,” Mr Smith said. “Firstly being able to race we can hold open meets here and

hopefully we can get a bit more finance into the club and make a few more improvements. “We have some goals to hold bigger events here, to hold combine races with other clubs.” Mr Smith said the council had also approved a grant to fund shade sail structures at the venue. Further improvements included gates and new signage. Continued page 2

Mr Kidd said he expected up to 3000 people to attend the match, which kicks off at 7pm. Melbourne Heart coach John van ‘t Schip said his entire side would come to the Border and wouldn’t take the match lightly. “It’s a practice game for us and we take it very seriously,” he said. “We don’t want to have injuries so the players have to concentrate and be focused. “We’ll try to perform at our best.” The team conducted school coaching clinics yesterday with more scheduled today and tomorrow. “We want to be more involved in the community and the community can be more involved in us,” van ’t Schip said. “We want to be present not only in Melbourne but further away to promote the code and give everyone a chance to come and watch and participate in clinics for youth.”

LONG-term residents of the district will remember when cycling brought thousands of competitors and visitors to Lavington. In fact the Lavington carnival boasted it was the richest cycling carnival in this country, and quite a few more as well. Since those days the flat track has been removed from the Lavington oval although the velodrome remained, something of a white elephant – a reminder of better times long past. But here, as in many other centres, the passion for bike riding has remained and grown. It is ironic that just after Cadel Evans conquered the Everest of cycling, the Tour de France, that Albury Council has finally come to its senses over the velodrome. There are many who believe the battle to get approval for competition racing on the velodrome was part of a hidden agenda to get rid of the facility. The council’s apparent lack of interest in the matter did nothing to dampen these rumours. But on Wednesday the council bowed to public pressure by granting a 10-year racing licence for the velodrome, plus a raft of other improvements. The decision means the Panthers Cycling Club will now be able to realise its dream of promoting the velodrome for racing. The club has said the demand is there – it now has to show us that is the case. Hopefully the track’s glory days are not behind it.

By BLAIR THOMSON THE best local soccer players will come up against some of the most talented players in the country when the Albury Wodonga Football Association side plays A-League team Melbourne Heart at La Trobe University tonight. While Scott Kidd, who will coach the Border side alongside Adam Cardy and Wayne Fraser, is under no illusions about how tough the challenge will be, he believes the opportunity for the local players will be priceless. “We’ve always said we’re of a very good quality in this competition, one of the best in the country and this will be the ultimate test,” he told NewsWeekly. “Players will see what it’s like at the highest level in the country. “You can bring an A-League game down and people can see that standard, but the opportunity the Melbourne Heart has given our players to show their wares, you can’t overestimate the appreciation for that. “This is the old David versus Goliath battle in many ways.” 24 Border players will each play a half against a side which includes former Australian representatives Simon Colosimo and Matt Thompson. “We’ve never played anyone of this standard,” Mr Kidd explained. “We want these guys to play some attacking football and enjoy the experience ... it’s not about the result, it’s about getting the most out of it and enjoying it. “This is like an O&M team playing at AFL level and it should be quite good for soccer on the Border.” The squad has been cut from 36 players in recent weeks with a mix of young and experienced players named in the side, with Ryan Giles from the Hotspurs to captain the team.

Now piracy killing the music store By BLAIR THOMSON THE owner of a Lavington music store says online piracy will force the closure of the shop next week. Terry Wolki has run The Music Shop in Lavington Centro for 11 years but has been losing the battle with internet downloads in the past two years. “At its peak we had four full time staff and several casuals,” Mr Wolki said. “It was probably two years ago that I lost my last staff member. “We used to order 200 new release CDs a few years ago, you’d get them on Friday, release them on the Saturday and see how they sold and re-order on Monday. “But in the last few years, we’d probably buy five or 10 new releases and there’s no guarantee they’d sell.” Mr Wolki said the store, which is selling remaining CDs, DVDs, vinyls and t-shirts at below cost, will likely close mid week. “My brother had 13 Music Shop stores and they’re all closed,” he said. “They’re shutting down worldwide. “They probably won’t even make CDs in a few years, it will all be downloaded. “These days you can just download anything for free, any movie

ROCKIN’: The Conspiracy Plan played at Wodonga Catholic College this week. Picture: TREVOR JACKSON.

Punk rockers raise cash By BLAIR THOMSON STUDENTS at Wodonga Catholic College had the chance to see a live band for a good cause this week. Wollongong-based punk rockers The Conspiracy Plan played a lunchtime gig at the school on Monday to dozens of students, with gold coin entry fees going to the Make-A-Wish-Foundation. “We were there to fight bullying and depression with music and give away Youth Beyondblue merchandise and raise money,” frontman Glenn Haworth said. “We performed for about 20 to 30 minutes and spread a message that if you have problems with anxiety of depression or bullying then it’s important to talk to your school counsellor, friends or family members about it. “It went really well.” The show was part of a tour of regional areas including Cobram, Wangaratta, Benalla, Rutherglen and Yarrawonga. “We’d like to aim at raising $500 per school; if we can raise that it would fantastic,” Mr Haworth said. “So we’re looking at around the $4000 amount in total for the tour.”

or CD and get it straight away.” ARIA figures show physical music and DVD sales declined 23 per cent from 2009 to 2010, while Music Industry Piracy Investigations, which represents record companies and artists, claims 2.8 million Australians download music illegally each year. Legally downloaded music has also boomed in recent years thanks to iTunes. Mr Wolki said The Music Shop had operated at Lavington Centro since the mall opened about 35 years ago. “It always made money, it was a very good business,” he said. “But it’s probably been losing money for the last 12 months. “What I used to sell in a week I’d now do in a month ... it’s unsustainable. “I’m working seven days a week just to cover rent.” Mr Wolki said he was actually relieved the business was closing as he will start work on a new venture. “I’ve owned Utah 501 in Dean Street for 21 years and we recently bought Pushy’s Bike Warehouse,” he said. “My son’s been running that for the past month and I’m looking forward to getting in there and giving that a go.”

Actor to pull plug on Kelly role at festival

Help sought on city website WODONGA Council is seeking residents with a keen interest in Wodonga, information technology, the internet, local government or social media to help guide the redevelopment of the council’s website. The volunteer position requires attendance at two meetings this month and the ability to provide feedback on what the new site should include and how it should look. The website will be redeveloped during the next 12 months with input from the external working group. Staff and councillors will also have input into the new website. Cr Lisa Mahood said that websites were a vital customer service and communication tool for councils. Applications close on Monday.

COMING TO AN END: Michael Beattie, pictured in the Beechworth Courthhouse holding cells, will perform as Ned Kelly for the final time this weekend. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON. By BLAIR THOMSON MICHAEL Beattie will step into the role of iconic outlaw Ned Kelly for the final time this weekend as part of Beechworth’s annual festival looking at the life of the infamous bushranger. Mr Beattie, who sports a dark beard similar to Kelly’s all year round, will be joined by about 20 actors for re-enactments of the bushranger’s committal hearing and trial at the Beechworth Courthouse in 1880 as part of the festival. He told NewsWeekly there were still strong feelings towards Kelly more than 120 years after his hanging in Melbourne, with death threats made against the actor by someone close to the Kelly story. “You could say Ned brings out people’s neuroses,” he said. “He can bring out passion in people, be it good or bad. “Some of the things I’ve had said to me … well I won’t repeat that here.

death as Kelly 14 times by the end of the weekend, with tours, talks and a trivia night also among activities planned for the popular event. According to Mr Beattie, Beechworth has a rich Kelly history. “Coming to Beechworth in the centre of Kelly country you kind of get involved in the story, you walk the places where the people were so many years ago and it really puts you in the place and the story comes alive,” he said. “A lot of the areas around Beechworth are haunts of the Kellys and there are even rumoured huts out in the bush that are there for no reason, not gold mining, not timber getting, and they date around about that time. “A lot of the friends, relatives and sympathisers of the Kellys were in Beechworth. “For foreign visitors you could understand why we’re a bit peculiar; we come from a convict background, the oppression has always been there so for Ned to stand up and thumb his nose at authority, it’s a special thing for Australians.”

Henty jingle to make welcome return in 2011 Everybody knows when a farmer’s goin’ places he goes to Henty Field Days first. September, 2011, will come around with a familiar soundtrack as Henty Machinery Field Days announces the return of the “old song.” The Board of the Henty Machinery Field Days Co-Operative has secured the copyright to the original song in time for the 2011 advertising campaign to promote the event on September 20, 21 and 22. Chairman Ross Edwards said the volume of the reaction to the loss of the old favourite was never anticipated. “We had people ringing up complaining and Facebook sites set up saying ‘if it ain’t broke why fix it?’ ” he said. “In an era when farming and agriculture is changing so quickly, I think it is nice to have some things stay the same and we are glad to be able to secure the rights to use the song,” he said. It is believed, until 2010, the song was one of the longest continuously used jingles in Australian advertising – hitting the airwaves for more than two decades. This year’s field days promises to deliver all the features visitors have grown to love while introducing some new concepts such as the Farm Gate produce market. And just in case you’ve forgotten, the song goes: There was movement at the station For the word had gone around The professionals are coming to town For the Henty Machienry Field Days Coming in for miles around Bringing tractors, trailers, seeders and balers Trucks, four wheel drives and ploughs Bringing headers and scrapers and big cultivators With experts who can show a man how. And 50,000 people will all be coming too Seeing things for better or for worse ‘Cause everyone knows when a farmer’s going places. He goes to Henty Field Days first. Going to the Henty Field Days Lot of good people there See you at the Henty Field Days There’s nothing like it anywhere.

Masterchef contestant reveals literary interests

Sharing his passions

MASTERFUL CHEF: Chris Badenoch will feature at the Write Around the Murray Festival. Picture: blair thomson

By BLAIR THOMSON FORMER Masterchef contestant Chris Badenoch was in Albury this week to launch the upcoming Write Around the Murray Festival. The keen chef will cook recipes from his book, The Entire Beast, at the Community Wood Fired Oven in September as part of the celebrations. “When I read about the festival I thought there were so many amazing things going on and the opportunity to come up here, talk about my book and do some cooking for people was something I just couldn’t pass up,” he said. “I was down at the wood fired oven yesterday and it’s unreal. “I’ll cook things like beef cheeks, lamb neck, bone marrow and pigs head, just to show the diversity of what the oven can do and get everyone trying a whole range of stuff.” Mr Badenoch, who finished third in the first Masterchef series, spent four months creating The Entire Beast

which is his first foray into writing. “It’s been out for about a year now so it’s all pretty exciting,” he said. “I’m one of those people that always wanted write; I’ve got this notion about being a writer, sitting on a yacht or at a country house writing for a living. “The book talks about my food philosophy which is basically about respect for the animal. “When we slaughter animals and eat them, we should eat the lot, nothing should be wasted.” Mr Badenoch will be joined by about 30 writers at the festival, which runs from September 7 to 11 and is expected to attract 4000 attendees. Guests include photojournalist and author Nigel Brennan, who with sister Nicole Bonney will share the story of the 462 days Brennan was held captive in Somalia, and comedian Anh Do, who will speak about his book, The Happiest Refugee: A Memoir, at the Festival Dinner.

When are young drivers going to learn there is ...

No bad luck in a speeding fine? A COUPLE of days ago a friend called to tell me that her daughters 19-year-old boyfriend had received a speeding ticket and because he was on his red Ps he would lose his licence. This didn’t generate much sympathy from me given my line of work and the traumatic scenes I’ve attended over the past 20 odd years from speed related crashes. Then she tells me this is his second speeding offence! He had already lost his red P-licence previously for the same thing! I shook my head in amazement

and disgust. What does a person need to do to make these young people realise that speeding is wrong and speed limits are designed to keep everyone safe? You would think he would have learnt the first time around! I thought this example was particularly relevant with Education Week last week, and am wondering how do we educate young people to educate themselves about rules and regulations outside of the school environment? Simply put, actions have consequences.

learner was unaccompanied and was under the influence of alcohol when driving. In another incident an 18-year-old red P-plater lost 14 demerit points in one hit after not displaying his P-plates, fishtailing at traffic lights, and driving a performance vehicle for which he was not authorised to drive and causing unnecessary noise. This portrays the naivety and ignorance that exists within this age group. How do you really make someone accountable for their own actions?

Gamers welcome R18+ plan Smith abstained from voting on the issue but the federal Minister for Home Affairs Brendan O’Connor has indicated that NSW support is not necessary to introduce the rating at a national level. Mr Smith will make a decision in coming months on the introduction of the rating in NSW and is expected to approve it. Mr Sinclair said he had played several games that he thought shouldn’t have been classified MA15+. “Judging by some of the things in Modern Warfare like being able to shoot civilians, that probably should have been R18+ but it got pushed down to MA15+ because of the rating system,” he said.

AFTER 12 months of effort the Halve Waste campaign has finally put an end to the ever growing quantity of waste going to landfill in Albury. If, from June 2010, the amount of waste to landfill had followed its historical growth trajectory, the Albury tip would have seen an increase of nearly 10,000 tonnes of waste to landfill. Instead, over the past year the amount of waste has stabilised and even reduced. Halve Waste estimates that more than 16,000 tonnes have been avoided so far. Andrea Baldwin, Waste Management Officer with the Albury City Council said that she is excited about the results. “Before the introduction of the Halve Waste campaign, Albury was landfilling about 200,000 tonnes of waste per year,” she said.

“Since the program was launched in June 2010, waste to landfill has started to reduce. “We are now landfilling 192,000 tonnes per year”. Reducing waste to landfill is of even more importance in light of the new carbon pricing mechanism recently announced by the Federal Government. It is estimated by the Australian Landfill Owners Association that the additional cost to landfill operators from receiving one tonne of municipal solid waste (equal to 1.2 tonnes of CO2 equivalent) under the new carbon price of $23, is in the vicinity of $28-$30. This cost is likely to be passed on to consumers. Every tonne of waste diverted from landfill and recycled translates into real financial savings for the community. “The results of the Halve Waste cam-

paign so far are largely due to the efforts of the community which has whole-heartedly embraced the campaign.” Ms Baldwin said. “However, it is important that we all step up our efforts and continue to improve resource recovery rates over the next 12 months.” The Halve Waste campaign provides a number of programmes to help residents reduce their waste. Businesses can sign the Halve Waste pledge and can obtain a free waste audit of their premises. Schools have the opportunity to participate in the Waste Watchers program and residents can apply to receive one of 1000 subsidised compost bins. There are also plenty of resources on the Halve Waste website for those interested in the scheme.

Waste campaign ‘having success’

“And it’s easy enough for gamers to get around the restrictions anyway.” Albury LAN Mine owner Dave Morris said the current rating system for games was “still in the dark ages” and Mr O’Connor said the rating reforms would bring Australian in line with the rest of the world. “We wanted to ensure that we had an R18+ classification so that we caught up with the rest of the world and at the same time ensured that we had sufficient protection in place for children in this country,” Mr O’Connor said.

LONG TIME COMING: Chris Sinclair agrees with plans to introduce an R18+ rating for video games. Picture: blair thomson

By BLAIR THOMSON BORDER gamers have welcomed news that Australia will introduce an R18+ rating for video games following a recent meeting of attorneys-general from all states and territories. The in-principle agreement will see the adults-only rating come into effect at a date yet to be specified. “It’s very good news, it’s been a long time coming,” 20-year-old Albury resident Chris Sinclair said. “The majority of gamers are over 18 so it makes sense to be catering for the older group rather than the younger group. “It doesn’t make sense that older gamers can’t access games designed for older gamers.” NSW Attorney-General Greg

But these visits are not a time for “serious” wine – they are all about fun and laughter, with easy drinking drops being the order of the day.

winelovers with

paul muntz

he North East is a great place to live – four distinct seasons, including one when the fluffy stuff falls. I am midway through my annual ski week at Thredbo, a sojourn that is a nice balance of hard exercise and hedonistic pleasure. Let’s look at a typical day on the slopes:

The hard work

My ski group have got a few years on me and are not only passionate about their skiing, they are simply bloody good at it. Put simply, they take no prisoners and the name of the game is early starts, minimal “breathers”, short lunches, and a continuous addiction for adrenaline. So, having a couple of noggins over lunch is not a hot idea and usually ends in tears. Alcohol and skiing don’t mix – even a couple of glasses is enough to disconnect the brain from the legs. So, my mob go hard at it all day and, just when we think we still have a few runs left in the legs, we head back to the lodge about mid-afternoon for a couple of cold beers, then put the feet up to gird the loins for the evening soiree.

Slopes socialising

Social life on the snow falls into basically three categories – bar life, lodge life or visiting. I am not a big one for bars – 25 butterscotch schnapps shooters one after the other don’t do a lot for the following day’s skiing. People exiting bars often have a tendency to try to walk to the next mountain instead of back to their lodge. Visiting is great fun – having a sticky beak at someone else’s lodge can be fascinating. These get-togethers are usually drinks events, with lots of standing around, small talk, and the inevitable re-run of the day’s skiing just past. Bubbly, beers and cheap Sav Blanc are the usual drinking suspects. Personally, I reckon these are great opportunities to try something unusual – there is nothing like trotting out a bottle of Mongolian sparkling wine, or an unpretentious little white from Croatia, to steer the conversation away from the mundane ski stuff. 0711 Wodonga Ad 12.9x10 PR.indd 1

The serious part

Usually, the “good stuff” doesn’t get trotted out until you’re back at the lodge and tucking into dinner – then it’s time for “food” wine. At our lodge, the dining is communal and mostly all wines are shared. It may not be the time to pull out your Chateau Latour, but putting on a bottle of Jacobs Creek is likely to end badly, with shouts of derision and some slow clapping. Full flavoured whites like Chardonnay and Albarino are a nice way to start, with Aussie Shiraz, older Cabernet Sauvignon, as well as beautiful Grenache – based wines from the Southern Rhone making regular appearances. The food at our lodge is delicious and life sustaining, but you wouldn’t call it delicate and pretty. At the end of a long day, this is not a time for soufflés and grilled whiting – roast cuts, warming casserole or just a good old fashioned steak are true winter dishes, and they match well with robust wines of quality.

How not to finish

After a hard day on the pins, and a glass or two over your normal daily average, it is not wise to reach for the Cognac or Port if you expect to front up again the following day. A small flirtation, perhaps, but then stick the cork back in – exiting the tow line for a quick trip into the bushes the next day is not a good look!

A warning about “Gluhwein”

People seem to associate hot mulled red wine with snow. It is a combination of forgettable wine, heavily spiced to mask the mediocrity and then boiled within an inch of its life so there is not a skerrick of alcohol remaining. Then the restaurant puts an outrageous price on it. Forget it! Have a nice cup of coffee to warm the “cockles” and save your bucks for something decent.

Tip for the week?

If you have young kids and have never gone to the snow, you are missing one of our great local treasures. Rug the kids up, hire a toboggan and have a great day. And to reward yourself for being great parents, pull the top off a nice bottle of warming red once you get the kids home safely. Next week: Indigo Wines – quality by osmosis?

Hellebores add late colour GARDENguru with

PRUE SMITH

H

ELLEBORES must be one of the most popular of all perennials at present. Their common names are the winter rose or the Christmas rose. These pretty little plants

with their large interestingly-shaped leaves, are one of those sought-after plants which grow well AND flower in shaded conditions. What’s more – they flower in the latter half of winter and into the spring, creating colour and decoration at a time when you are looking for such. They look especially good under trees and shrubs, growing to a height of about 60cm. The most common of the various species of Hellebores is Helleborus orientalis and its many cultivars, and they are currently in bloom. Their flowers can be white but most often are a shade of pink or plum, and usu-

ally have splashes of green on them. They have prominent stamens which add to the wonderful floral effect. The darker maroon/ plum coloured ones, such as “Otto’s Plum�, are very popular these days. Hellebore leaves are dark green and very strongly segmented, almost palmate. They often disappear during dry, hot months. The remaining older leaves often need cutting back late in the autumn when they can look a bit raggedy. This also allows you to see the buds forming and flowers developing. The flowers are held above the leaves. They self-sow quite easily, and soon form

clumps. Hellebores do not like to be transplanted once established, so it is best to lift any seedlings when they are still quite small, if you want to form new clumps elsewhere. The other species usually readily available in nurseries are H. argutifolius, which will soon be carrying its pale green flowers, and H. foetidus, which carries drooping green bells edged in maroon later in the spring. These are both a little taller than the H. orientalis varieties, but enjoy the same conditions. All are well-worth having in your gardens and there are always new cultivars coming on to the market.

Garden tasks: ✓C amellias are in full bloom now, so it is a good

time to choose a bush if you are planning to put one in.

✓ I f your gardenias leaves are yellowing, it may

help to water them every couple of weeks with a water-soluble fertiliser like Thrive, or else give them another dose of Epsom Salts. If the yellowing persists, there may be a problem with root-knot, caused by soil nematodes. Lift the plant, and if there are irregular swellings on

the roots, you need to destroy it.

lood oranges are in season now until late September. Originating in Sicily and known for their sweet yet tart flavour with hints of cherry and raspberry, their flesh colour ranges from orange red to a dramatic burgundy tone. Growing areas for the major variety of Arnold (Moro) blood oranges are the Riverland, Mildura, Murrumbidgee areas and Griffith. One of three new varieties of blood orange under trial is the Tarocco that we won’t see in greengrocers until 2013. However, this

new variety will be seedless, larger than the “Arnold� and a fraction sweeter. Apparently it’s not quite so reddish in skin colour. I can’t wait for this new improved variety!

Uses for Blood Oranges:

• Make a fashionable Blood Orange and Campari cocktail • Slice blood oranges for a salad with fennel and olives and drizzle with a wholegrain mustard vinaigrette • Slice blood oranges in a salad of baby spinach, rocket, finely sliced red onion and top with cooked prawns and a garlicky dressing • Use blood orange juice in panna cotta, sorbet or icecream

Watch-point:

If you see ‘blood navel’ oranges, they should not be confused with a true blood orange. These navel oranges are sweet-tasting ‘pigmented’ fruit with pink flesh similar to a red grapefruit.

Barbecued chicken with blood oranges (Serves 4-5) This dish is perfect for a weeknight when you can grab a take-away barbecued chook, add exotic blood oranges and a quick fragrant sauce.

MAKING TECHNOLOGY EASY TO UNDERSTAND

YOU may or may not have heard about “cloudâ€? technology, but it’s here, and it’s very useful for those of us with more than one internet device, e.g. a smart phone and a computer. “Cloudâ€? is simply tech speak for internet-based storage. Optus Smart Safe™ is the new “cloudâ€? service for Optus mobile and broadband customers. Files from up to five devices, including your Optus Smartphone (currently not available for iPhone) and computer, are backed up to one secure account that lets you do a number of very useful things: Back-up – Optus Smart Safe™ is a handy

way to protect and back up the photos, music, messages, contacts, calendar and documents you store on your smart phone and computer. And with the data stored on the internet, it is easy to retrieve should you lose your mobile, crash your computer. Store – Optus Smart Safe™ allows you to store all your files in the one secure place. So rather than copying and saving files to carry with you, they can be accessed 24 hours from anywhere with an internet connection. Share – You can view, download and share your stored files with friends, and on social networking sites like facebook.

Power to the people By TREVOR JACKSON IN this time of digital technology there’s one thing we need to remember: our digital products need to be powered and that power needs to be reliable. While it may sound simple enough it can become rather expensive to constantly replace batteries that supply charge to our high-tech items and even more frustrating when our rechargeable batteries leave us in the lurch when needed most. There are many options out there in the market place and being an avid photographer I’ve searched for the best and most

reliable batteries to power my off-camera flash units. I stumbled across Sanyo’s eneloop batteries while rummaging through Foto Supplies one day and have found them to be the best for what I need. They come pre-charged, ready to go and hold their charge for an extended period of time, indeed the manufacturer claims they hold 90 per cent of power after six months of storage and 75 per cent up to three years. So after using the batteries in my flash units for some time I changed over to everything in my home that is battery powered.

Save time – Set your computer and Optus Smartphone to automatically back up your files. Your new files are then automatically saved and stored without you having to think about it. Get 500MB of Optus Smart Safe for FREE – Up to 500MB of Optus Smart Safe™ online storage is free for all Optus mobile plan customers.

Stick to the basics

I ATTENDED a function last week and in conversation it was commented to me that having spent a significant sum on my new high tech system why do I need four remote controls just to watch television? This is an issue that will continue to plague consumers’ for years to come. Issues can be faced when a customer may purchase a premium model television and then a budget audio system or vice versa. If you purchase a single brand package ensure they come from the same series.

If the purchase is of separate components enquire whether your other devices will work on the one remote.      Aftermarket remote controls are available, most providing similar frustrations with more small buttons than necessary. We sometimes get carried away by bells and whistles we may use for less than 10 per cent of the time. It is very easy to get caught up with the “in fashion for 2011â€?. Many middle and lower end brands will spend more time tempting you with the sizzle to detract you from the performance.

Open day a chance to begin learning

LEARNING: The open day at La Trobe University will provide students with heaps of information.

Decisions about uni courses are important ones for future students and their families. La Trobe Albury Wodonga Open Day is a great opportunity to talk directly to staff and students about study options. Be there on Sunday, August 21, from 10am to 3pm and experience the difference! A wide range of activities and information sessions will introduce visitors to the campus and its courses. The campus continues to offer unique courses in sustainable resource management, environmental management and ecology, and postgraduate teacher training/ education, as well as a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate courses in other key study areas. In 2012, new science degree course pathways at the Albury Wodonga campus will include Agricultural Science and Wildlife and

Conservation Biology. In the Humanities study area, a new Work Ready Bachelor of Arts and Diploma of Arts will also be available. “The lower costs of living and studying in regional areas, coupled with high quality teaching, personalised attention and flexible study options, are major factors attracting students to consider studying at La Trobe University’s regional campuses,” Leo Whyte,

Future Students Adviser at the AlburyWodonga campus said. “We are keen to help you to make an informed choice about your future study options – but if you can’t make it on the day, call to organise a visit at a more suitable time.” Call Leo on 6024 9785. The Albury-Wodonga campus is also hosting the Wodonga Sustainability Fair during the open day.

“I now look forward to my career as a health professional. “My experiences at university have been fantastic. I met so many wonderful people from all around the country and had so much fun. Also getting my first high distinction for an assignment was pretty exciting. “For the first year and a half I lived on campus. I met so many new and fun people. “The friends I met on my first day at CSU are still great friends now. CSU has such a supportive environment, both academically and socially. You will have the best time. “I’m a student ambassador and find it very rewarding to show prospective students our university and to have the chance to tell them a bit about uni life.” To experience CSU for yourself, book a tour www.csu.edu.au/campustour

The CSU experience is waiting for you. At Charles Sturt University, aspiring students don’t have to fit their plans around just one open day. The university’s open day every day program means that you can take a personal guided campus tour at a time convenient to you. Visiting CSU any weekday for a personal guided tour with an experienced student ambassador is an excellent way to get real insight into the CSU experience. Your tour will give you the opportunity to talk about your course, see what it is like to study at CSU plus learn about accommodation and other campus facilities you could be using once you start your degree. Christy Dunlop is studying Health and Rehabilitation Science at CSU in AlburyWodonga and is also a student ambassador. Originally from Cowra, NSW, Christy wasn’t sure moving to Sydney or Melbourne to attend university was for her. Luckily she found the perfect solution when she decided to study at CSU. “As I came from a small town I was hesitant to move to a big city,” she said. CSU in Albury-Wodonga was the perfect place. The range of allied health courses and new learning facilities were also part of the reason I chose CSU. “Since coming to CSU, I have learnt so much, not only academically, but about myself and the lifestyle I want to live. “When I left high school I was a little uncertain of how I wanted to spend the rest of my life but CSU has definitely helped me realise what I want.

From Pink to Border show for Derrico

By BLAIR THOMSON JUSTIN Derrico is not exactly a household name. But the talented guitarist has performed around the world with some of the biggest artists in popular music including Pink, Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, Tina Turner and Enrique Iglesias. Born in New York and raised in Virginia, Derrico’s career skyrocketed after he was hand picked to tour with Pink five years ago. “I auditioned for it, me and about 20 other guys and they hired me on the spot,” he told NewsWeekly ahead of his upcoming gig at the Albion. “A week later we were in Budapest playing for 120,000 people which was pretty epic. “It was a crazy week, I had to learn about 27 songs for that and it was a bit of a challenge. “I’ve now done five world tours with her and it’s worked out great.” Derrico, based near Hollywood in California, first picked up a guitar at age 15. “Back then all I listened to was Jimmy Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan,” he said. “They had such a huge influence on my playing. “For the most part it came pretty natural for me but I worked on it for a long time, practising scales and trying to improve my playing.” His first big break came when he landed the spot of touring guitarist with The Calling and his reputation has continued to grow as the years have passed. Derrico has never been one to rest on his laurels. “I’m always trying to perfect my performance,” he said. “It’s taken a lot of work to get there. “A lot of people can play fast, but it’s about playing fast and in time.” Performing alongside Pink in front of tens of thousands of fans is often a nerve-wrecking experience for the 29-year-old. “There’s always a bit of pressure,” he explained. “I always want to bring my A game, support her and bring a great show for the fans. “There’s very small room for error and a lot going on ... if one person stuffs up then everyone stuffs up, a lot of people are relying on you.” Derrico’s gig at the Albion on Sunday, August 14, will feature his solo band and songs from last year’s album, Boldly Going Nowhere. “It’s been out since October last year,” he explained, “but It’s been hard to promote because I’ve been so busy.” “I’m keen to get to Australia because they’re real music fans there, they appreciate real music.” Derrico, who grew up on a 186 acre farm in rural Virginia, admits there are times during his whirlwind life where he has to pinch himself. “I’ve played with some amazing artists and it’s been a great ride man,” he said.

TOURING: Justin Derrico and his band will play in Albury during his upcoming tour of Australia. “I know there’s another season of (TV show) The Voice, then I’m going to do another record and I know at some point this year Pink wants to go back on the road and I’ll be there ready for her. “I’m just trying to be the best

musician I can be and have fun with it at the same time.” Derrico plays at the Albion Hotel in Albury on Sunday, August 14. Tickets are available from moshtix.com.au and the venue on 6021 3777.

BOXOFFICE MOVIE: Hanna (M) DURATION: 111 Minutes By BLAIR THOMSON HANNA is an beautifully made, intriguing action film focussing on the exploits of its near-rabid title character. Played to perfection by 17-yearold actor Saoirse Ronan, Hanna begins the film as a super-fit and highly trained human weapon led by her father, Erik (Eric Bana). Both are isolated from the rest of the world in a small Arctic shack with their survival entirely dependant on their hunting abilities. The need for Erik to cut his teenage daughter off from the rest of the world, and the purpose of her training in martial arts, several languages, and a fictional back story of her life, is not apparently clear. Even once they leave their icy home and Hanna is taken into CIA

custody, only for her to escape, the exact reason why the young girl is so important is not apparent. The answers slowly unravel throughout the movie in beautifully made action scenes and engaging psychological drama, stitched together with great editing. Every aspect of this movie – screenplay, acting, sound design and story – are well presented. Cate Blanchette is great as the steely CIA agent Marisa, but Ronan steals the limelight. Her look of young innocence is countered by her cunning and ruthless fighting abilities which she uses against her attackers with alarming efficiency. Set against backdrops including Morocco, Berlin and an abandoned amusement park, the movie is one of the better action releases. It has a real heart and soul which sets it apart.

CAMERA CLUB: Kathryn Hopps, Paul Temple and Helen Bishop play with their cameras ahead of a new exhibition at Creators Artspace. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON

Best images go on display By BLAIR THOMSON THE Wodonga Albury Camera Club launches its annual photographic exhibition tonight at Creators Artspace on Gateway Island. Featuring works from about half of the group’s 60-odd members, the exhibition often attracts close to a thousand viewers during its two week run. “The club’s members range from those just learning photography, right through to semi-professionals,” event organiser Paul Temple said. “Name something and they shoot it; landscapes, portraits through to montages and creative manipulation. “It’s a chance for members who normally wouldn’t exhibit work to actually take part in an exhibition which is put together pretty well.” Each of the entrants submit two of their best works with images shot on the Border and beyond. “They’re all capable of producing great work, it’s just a matter of selection, making

sure they put their best stuff forward,” Mr Temple explained. “The thing about the club is it keeps you busy doing things. “There are monthly competitions and that was the reason why I joined back in 1989, to keep active and working and producing something each month. “People shoot on everything from compact cameras right through to the most professional cameras.” While some members still use film, the majority shoot on digital cameras. Club member Kathryn Hopps will take part in the exhibition and said she had learnt from more experienced photographers in the club. “I think it’s just about getting out there and having a go, experimenting and trying different things,” she said. The images will be on display until Sunday, August 14. For more information call Mr Temple on 6024 4885 or 0401 950 273.

A MURRAY Valley grazing property known as the birthplace of Murray Grey cattle will be auctioned in August. Thologolong Station, a 344ha grazing property 65km east of Wodonga with 1km frontage to the Murray River, has been listed for sale by Elders. Thologolong was originally owned by Peter and Ena Sutherland who were credited with pioneering the Murray Grey breed. Historical accounts record that Murray Grey cattle were developed from an initial chance mating of a black Aberdeen Angus bull with a roan Shorthorn cow in 1905. The resulting 13 grey calves were bred on Thologolong by the Sutherlands, and the cattle were named Murray Greys in recognition of their colour and their Murray River origins. “It became apparent … that these odd cattle grew quickly, were superior converters of feed and possessed carcase merit,” an official history on the Murray Grey Beef Cattle Society website states. “Local cattlemen were attracted by the Grey’s size and appearance and began developing the breed.” In 1929, following the death of Peter Sutherland, Ena Sutherland sold her herd to her sister-in-law Helen Sutherland, who de-

veloped the breed with her husband, Keith. In 1939 the Gadd family purchased Murray Grey bulls from the Sutherlands and commenced a major breeding program. By the 1960s several breeders were successfully breeding commercial Murray Greys and the Murray Grey Beef Cattle Society was formed to register the cattle and to administer the breed. Murray Greys have since been bred in New Zealand, the US, Canada and Europe. The property contains a heritage listed timber homestead constructed from hardwood timber felled and milled on the property in the late 1920s. Helen died in 1986 but the property has remained in the Sutherland family’s ownership since its inception. The property is fenced into 40 paddocks and carries 150 breeders. Elders agent Reg Coulston, who has listed the property for sale, said a price in excess of $1 million was expected. The property will be auctioned at 2pm on August 11. For further details contact Reg Coulston at Elders Albury on 0418 118 207 or enter the property ID number 35669087 at www. eldersrealestate.com.au

Helping hand can create ‘wow’ factor

Chief executive officer Real Estate Institute of NSW

www.reinsw.com.au vacant properties can feel quite unappealing and uninspiring. The addition of furniture creates a much more emotional connection for potential buyers. And with occupied properties, while most people have reasonable furniture it can sometimes lack the ‘wow’ factor. A property stylist can stage it in a way that creates a great feel – it’s about how it feels rather than how it looks. In short, property styling can raise the value of a property by decluttering, depersonalising and reducing the flaws. Perception is reality in selling. So by creating a warm, homely and inviting environment you will help position your property ahead of others in a buyer’s mind.

4HINKING OF BUYING AN ESTABLISHED HOME Think again! Transfer duty exemptions and concessions are available for certain new home purchases, off the plan purchases, and vacant land purchases on which a home will be built within a specified time.

THE federal carbon tax will push the cost of the Great Australian Dream up by thousands of dollars according to the NSW leading real estate body, all of which will also be subject to GST and stamp duty Average residential building price increases of $5000 as a result of the carbon tax will be even further blown out by more than $740 in additional GST and stamp duty imposts, according to the Real Estate Institute of New South Wales. “It is bad enough that the carbon tax will push up the cost of an average new home by at least $5000 but to then make that increase subject to not one but two existing taxes, is just unconscionable”, REINSW President, Wayne Stewart said. “New home buyers will be delivered a triple tax hit which for many will simply mean the final nail in the coffin of their Great Australian Dream. “A carbon tax increase of $5000 on the average new home which incurs a 10 per cent

GST, and is then subject to stamp duty, will inevitably knock buyers out of the market. “When cost of living pressures are making home ownership harder, the Federal Government should be looking at ways to make buying a home easier and not harder. “By allowing a tax (carbon) on a tax (GST) on a tax (stamp duty) is to simply abandon those struggling to buy their own home. “An increase of $5000 in the cost of materials for a new residential home flowing from the carbon tax will result in approximately $747.50 in both GST and stamp duty. “Combined the three taxes will result in an increase of $5747.50. “The government has either not thought through the impact of the carbon tax on the real estate sector or is hoping home buyers won’t pick up on it and will just cop it. “The direct and indirect impacts of the carbon tax will result in a generation of Australians who will never know the feeling of owning their own home.”

PROPERTY styling, or staging, has become one of the big growth areas in real estate marketing as owners and agents look to maximise a property’s appeal and value. Stylists and interior designers can either work with a homeowner’s existing furniture and design or create something entirely new from scratch. The secret of staging a property is to take away the owners’ personal tastes and create something that will appeal to the highest percentage of potential buyers. The first impression is what is going to sell a property. Subtle furnishing and good use of colour creates something that will appeal to the particular demographic of the area and the biggest number of buyers. Everything from multimillion dollar waterfront properties to one-bedroom apartments and dodgy old houses can benefit from some professional help. Let’s face it, without any furniture some

Hard work pays off with state selection

YEARS of hard work and commitment has paid off for 15-yearold Wodonga Saints junior netballer, Ainslee O’Connell who has been selected to play at state level in the Victorian Catholic state squad. Ainslee is one of 12 juniors in the state to make the team and participate in the Australasian titles in Shepparton from September 27 to October 4 against Australian and New Zealand teams. Ainslee said she was excited about the opportunity and had been working towards state selection since she was eligible. “After all the years of trialling for state teams it’s pretty good, I’m happy,” she said. “It’s been hard work, I’ve done lots of training, rep training. I’ve trained with the Saints, trained with the academy, but it was all worth it.” Ainslee’s workload has lifted this current Tallangatta season where she’s stepped up to a regular playing position in the Saints A grade line-up. Her current coach Sarah Brodie said she was now a vital player in the mid-court for the team. “Ainslee played in the 15 and under team last year and this year we believed she was ready and had the skills to come up and play in A grade and she has played every game,” Sarah said. “She plays centre and wing defence, has a very good defensive mind and attacks the ball … it’s good to have that young spirit and drive in our mid-court.” Ainslee said the opportunity to play at the higher club level had improved her strength and skills. “I like the challenge of A grade,” she said. “Up in A grade I play people who are better skilled and have

been playing a lot longer and I’ve picked up a lot along the way. “I’ve become a lot stronger, holding myself a lot better when I play which has made it a lot easier to play at state level … I can hold my own.” Ainslee’s mother, Loretta, said she was pleased with her daughter’s achievement but said she understood the hard work required to reach the state level. “I am proud of her but I also know how hard she’s worked,” Loretta said. “It’s been accumulating over the years, she’s been doing rep netball for four years, she’s also been doing the netball zone academy this year but certainly playing A grade against mature women has improved her stamina … I think this year she has really improved.” Of course with all sports there is a cost involved and upfront costs to be part of the state squad plus travelling to Melbourne weekly for training can eat into any budget. Sarah said the Wodonga Saints club was looking at fundraising to help Ainslee along the way. “We’re just trying at club level to organise some fund-raising and we’re having a raffle on our next home game which is against Chiltern in two week’s time,” she said. “Hopefully we’ll be contacting our major sponsors and just anybody at all that would like to contribute can contact myself or the club.” Sarah can be contacted by phone on 0408 168 203 or those interested in assisting can visit the club website at wodongasaints.com.au where information about Ainslee’s achievements can be found.

Falcons firm for flag with 3-0 win THE weekend’s domestic hockey round has shaped the remainder of the season in both men’s and women’s competitions. Falcons men have emerged as flag favourites after defeating United 3-0. With seven of their top players missing Falcons were able to cover the absences to still field a strong team while United were missing Sam McIntosh and Mark Bryant. A scoreless first half showed the defensive intensity of both teams and it was Falcons who emerged better prepared in the second half. James Jewel opened the scoring for Falcons from a penalty corner play and when Matt Russell flicked the ball over United keeper, Tony Jones to take a 2-0 lead just two minutes later the result was looking ominous. United were unable to penetrate the Falcons defence and with 10 minutes remaining Ivo Mol sealed the match for the victors. Wombats are making a late charge to the finals and their 2-1 win over Magpies keeps them

just one win out of the four. A three goal haul by Joel Anderson was the backbone of Norths 4-2 win over Wodonga, solidifying their position in the top four. Meanwhile Wodonga women overcame a slow start to defeat Falcons 3-1. Magpies 2-1 win over Norths moves them to just two points off the top of the ladder and only three points separates the top three teams in the closest season yet. ALBURY Steamers have posted their biggest win of the year at Kapooka on the weekend completely outclassing the RARC side with a 78-5 win. Despite a strong start from the home side the Steamers applied early pressure with a try after just seven minutes of play. Four further tries in the first half gave the visitors a decisive 29-5 lead at the break and they looking like running away with the game. As the final score shows, they did just that, holding the hosts scoreless in the final term and thus inflicting the demoralising

defeat. Steamers now face Griffith at Murrayfield this weekend.

A coach has to take some form of responsibility for the performance of those in his charge. A poor coaching program can have a devastating effect on a team’s season and many a coach has felt the wrath of the ownership group over the years because of just that. But likewise, poor performances on the field can be just as devastating. But is it a sackable offence in the AFL if a team doesn’t perform? And can a coach really take the full blame when a team consistently under-performs? In the case of the Melbourne football club it appears to be the case. As we’ve seen this last week

the club took matters into their own hands, sacking coach Dean Bailey, to deal with what can only be described as an embarrassing day for the Demons, the 186 point drubbing the second highest in AFL/VFL history. But certain Demon team members have stated the players should be held responsible for the thrashing and others in the media have noted a distinct lack of effort from the playing group. Although Bailey had achieved some form of success this season for his club it was too little, too late, or so it seems, in a tenure that has yielded little, the administration finally having enough. And an admission to playing for draft picks, a practice that should certainly be frowned upon by the AFL, and one I consider to be nothing short of cheating, has since fuelled the fire. Team building is one thing, and may well take some time to reap the rewards but purposely under-playing a team to take advantage of the national draft is something the club as a whole, not just the coach, should be held accountable for.

ALBURY High School has progressed to the next round of the Combined High Schools Basketball knock-out tournament with a tough 36-30 win over James Fallon High at the Albury Sports Stadium. The victory propels the team to the final round at Temora. The win was even more impressive given the fact that the team had only been together for a few days prior to the competition and had their first game as a group in a warm up on the morning of the knock-out. Coach Gemma Gibson was impressed with the team’s performance given the lack of preparation with try-outs for the team held on the Tuesday before the competition and only eight girls showing up for the team. “Basically we only had our side together during the week,” Ms Gibson said. “We’ve got a few representative players which helps us but the way that they actually got in and had a go was a really good effort. “We will be training for the next round and hopefully we can go further.” With Deniliquin High School unable to attend the competition it came down to a Border clash and Albury made the most of their opportunities through smart play and teamwork. Ms Gibson said although they weren’t a tall team, with many of the players in year 7 in the under 15 competition, they ensured victory by including all players on the floor in the action. “No one left anyone out,” Ms Gibson said. “We basically poised and made sure we controlled the ball and stayed in our zone defence. “We have girls who aren’t as strong as others so we made sure they got as much time as they could and just kept talking, driving to the basket and rebounding.” Ms Gibson said they were now looking to up the ante with training runs set up prior to the Temora round and said they were buoyed by the fact that the future of the team seemed bright with so many young players holding their own in the competition. “The majority of our girls are just Year 7,” she said. “We’ve got one Year 9 and one Year 8 … it’s an under 15 comp so hopefully for the next couple of years we’ve got a fairly strong team coming through.”

Hoppers eye off finals spot NORTH Albury has refused to lay down with an impressive 9856 win over Wodonga Raiders on the weekend to keep their season hopes alive and only one of our tipsters, Helen Goldsworthy managed to pick the result. But just like the Hoppers, Helen still has a lot of work to do to stay in touch with the leaders of our competition, but onto the game. A quarter time 4.2-2.3 lead set the victory up and a further three goals straight in the second term helped to hold that advantage. The Raiders, while having plenty of the ball in the second could only manage 1.3 and had they converted more accurately the final score could well have told a different story. The Hoppers again took the upper hand in the third but themselves found the small sticks on a number of occasions, although also managed to keep the Raiders goalless for the term, just the two behinds adding to the home side’s tally. And while both sides provided ample work for the scorers in the final term the damage had been done and the Hoppers took the points. The Raiders now have the tougher run home and will need to pull out all stops to hold onto fifth spot. Meanwhile Wangaratta took a 97-59 win over Corowa-Rutherglen and Lavington were less than impressive against Wodonga but still managed a strong 93-73 win all the same. Wangaratta Rovers were comprehensively thumped by Yarrawonga, 128-45 as were the Saints when they faced the might of the

make for an interesting couple of rounds ahead. However, I can’t see the Hoppers having enough to topple the Panthers so I think they’ll have to look further ahead for their next victory, although time is fast running out. Likewise the Raiders have no chance of a win this weekend. Wodonga will take the home ground advantage against the Roos and will come away with a hard earned win, Yarrawonga will have no trouble accounting for the Saints and Wangaratta should take care of business against the Rovers.

North Albury face a strong Lavington outfit this week and will need a big effort to ensure they grab a victory and place the pressure squarely on the Raiders shoulders.

The Raiders face the Tigers and it’s hard to imagine them even bothering the reigning premiers and should the Hoppers pull off the unimaginable and take a victory this weekend it will certainly
