Hopes for new ambulance station dashed as plans ...
OUT IN COLD By BLAIR THOMSON HOPES of securing a much-needed new ambulance station in Albury have again been put on hold. The NSW Government denied funding for the project in its budget this week which Member for Albury Greg Aplin admits was “disappointing” after years of pushing for a new station. “Obviously I’m disappointed,” he said. “It’s something I’ve been trying to get on the Government’s radar and the Government is focused on
delivering it’s pre-election promises, but this wasn’t a pre-election promise. “It’s something I’ll take up with them again and it’s something I’m pushing quite hard for.” He estimated it would cost up to $2.5 million to research, plan and build a new station, with paramedics currently working in cramped conditions with outdated facilities at the 77-year-old building. Mr Aplin said he hoped “substantial” government land assets in Lavington, some of which have
already been sold, would provide funding for the project. “The properties we’ve identified are the old health campus at Diggers Road in Lavington, there’s also the old site of Woodstock which was once a mental health facility,” he said. “I don’t know the exact figure of what those sales could be worth, but it would be sufficient to fund the station and that’s something I will be encouraging the Minister for Health to expedite.” Despite the grim station news,
Mr Aplin said there were several positives in the new budget. “There’s funding there for the new Albury TAFE connected learning facility which will help young people and adult students in the area, there’s $1.55 million for new facilities for people with disabilities and significant contributions to roads,” he said. Much of the roads cash will help repair flood damage. “Money is also going to upgrading and maintaining the XPT train service which is always good and
there’s going to be 150 new police across the state this year,” he said. Spending in Mr Aplin’s electorate also includes $2.7 million which has been allocated to repairing the John Foord Bridge at Corowa, $1.3 million for 16 more nurses in the region and $2 million to create 10 new sub-acute beds at Albury Wodonga Health. Local disability support group Kalianna Enterprises was was also allocated $580,000 to provide transport services for aged and disabled people.

By BLAIR THOMSON BORDER war historian Graham Docksey has returned to the Border after travelling 16,500km around Australia tracing a piece of Albury’s history. The retired Major can “see the finishing line in sight” in his bid to visit the graves of every member of the 2/23rd Battalion (Albury’s Own) who died in action or from wounds or illness between 1940 and 1946. That has involved trips at his own expense to several countries including Libya, Egypt and Papua New Guinea and countless hours of research. “There are 318 graves and there’s only six remaining that I haven’t photographed,” he said. “It’s been a fulfilling journey, a moving experience.” Mr Docksey will compile the images, along with a photo and information on each soldier where possible, into an online history of the local battalion for family members of the deceased to access. He will also meet publishers in Melbourne to discuss plans for a book. The Thurgoona resident, who spent 46 years in the Australian Army, eight years of which were as the manager of the Army Museum Bandiana, can empathise with the deceased battalion members. “I was only 19 when I went to Vietnam to serve, I had my 20th birthday over there,” he explained. “I can understand their sacrifice and what they must have gone through, particularly at such a young age. “You see graves of soldiers that died at 18, 19 … at that age you haven’t even expe-

Anyone with information or photographs on battalion members should contact Mr Docksey on 0429 655 815 or email grahamd@live.com.au
$9000 Albury recycling grant ALBURY Council has won a $9000 community grant to increase beverage container recycling in Albury and reduce waste being sent to landfill. The Keep Australia Beautiful grant will enable the council to install two sets of waste and recycling receptacles at the Albury Entertainment Centre and four across the Convention Centre complex. The focus of the $170,000 nationwide Community Grants Scheme is on increasing away-from-home recycling, through practical
projects that leave a legacy and do not duplicate existing recycling activities. Project results must be measurable and show how recycled materials are being collected and diverted from landfill. AlburyCity was awarded a grant, along with four other New South Wales community projects, to purchase the infrastructure required for the recycling of beverage containers and other materials at the Albury Entertainment Centre. This follows on from the $6426 grant they received in
2010 to install recycling bins and signs at Lavington Oval. “AlburyCity was selected as its project provides a clear outcome for increasing the recycling rate of containers in public places,” Keep Australia Beautiful NSW CEO Peter McLean said. “With only just over half the total waste produced in Australia each year being recycled, this project provides an option for the public to recycle containers when they are out and about.” Albury Mayor Cr Alice Glachan, said she was “delighted” to receive the grant.
Protests do us no credit ANYBODY who had had any association with abortion knows full well it is a traumatic experience. It is a situation that can cause real heartache to the individuals involved, as well as within the wider family. In fact it is a situation that has the potential to tear a family apart. It is a subject that for some is clear cut – it is a legal medical procedure and any woman has the right to decide whether or not she wishes to continue, or terminate, a pregnancy. And there are those who believe the law is wrong and will virtually stop at nothing to dissuade any woman from going ahead with a termination. In Albury over recent months the issue has caused considerable grief as a group calling itself The Helpers of God’s Precious Infants has set up a protest outside a termination clinic. While nobody disputes the right of the group to voice their views, right minded people must have misgivings about them photographing and approaching people visiting the clinic. Pro-choice individuals have taken to staging an opposing protest with the result that a peaceful residential street has become something of a battle zone. It appears efforts to broker a truce between the groups have been only partially successful meaning there is no end in sight. As a result the confrontations show little sight of abating. It is a situation that does little credit to this community.

Teen looks to take big step on catwalk By TREVOR JACKSON AT just 16 years of age Border teen model, Jennifer Bhuta has taken the next step in realising her dream of becoming a supermodel. She has been selected to represent her birth country of India in the Miss Teen Supermodel pageant in Fiji this month. After applying for the position with little time remaining for entry Jennifer was successful and received the phone call she’d been hoping for. The pageant includes the top teenage models from around the world and Jennifer said she was surprised and excited to have been selected. “It all came about really suddenly and I took the opportunity,” she said. “It’s really exciting, I can’t wait to go to Fiji … to go overseas for a pageant will be a whole new experience. “To go overseas and represent the country is pretty amazing.” Jennifer said the pageant would run to the usual format with the girls separated into groups to participate in various activities such as snorkelling and kayaking and the mandatory photo shoots before a final night which included modelling various outfits and what she consid-
ered the most daunting part of the event, the questions. “You have to wear swimwear, cocktail dress, evening gown and you get judged on all of those things,” she said. “I think the photo shoots will be easy but it’s pretty scary having to answer questions you’ve never even thought about in front of a crowd that’s judging you.” Having lived in Australia for around 14 years with much of that time spent on the Border, Jennifer’s mother, Meera said it was a very proud moment for her. “I can’t express my feelings about how lucky I am to have her as my daughter,” Meera said “It doesn’t matter if she wins or not, it’s a proud moment for her that she’s been chosen to go to Fiji representing India.” Meera said that living in Australia had provided her family with nothing but positive memories but felt it was important that Jennifer remembered her roots. “I’m happy that she’s living in Australia and representing India,” Meera said. “She’s been living here and grown up here and she hasn’t forgotten her origin country and that’s the main thing.” Jennifer flies to Fiji on September 24 for the competition.

Parkinson’s cure aim of walk Ven will be there to wave everyone off and walkers can enjoy a free sausage sizzle after the event,” organiser Pam McMillan said. The cost is $5 per adult, $2 per child under 15 years of age, or $15 per family. This year, Deb England from Parkinson’s NSW will feature at a pre walk seminar held on September 10 at the Quest Apartments, Kiewa Street Albury, commencing at 2pm. The seminar will provide infor-
mation and support for those suffering and living with Parkinson’s Disease. People wishing to support the cause can donate either online before September 12 on www.unitywalkfundraising.com.au or by contacting Pam McMillan on 0407 503 605. Donations can also be made on the day and receipts will be issued. Parkinson’s Disease is the second most common neurological condition in the world.
It is very difficult to diagnose, though it is diagnosed usually after unexplained symptoms. Over 80,000 Australians live with Parkinson’s Disease and there is currently no known cause or cure. It occurs when certain nerve cells (neurons) in part of the brain called substantia nigra die or become impaired. Normally, these cells produce a vital chemical known as dopamine. Dopamine allows smooth co-
ordinated function of the body’s muscles and movement. When approximately 70 per cent of the dopamine-producing cells are damaged, the symptoms of Parkinson’s Disease appears. Tremor, (shaking, trembling) is the most well known symptom, but is absent in one third of people when the condition is first diagnosed. Typically it is most noticeable at rest and when stressed or tired and disappears during movement and when asleep.

New Red Cross branch to fill a need: organisers
494073-KC36-11
By BLAIR THOMSON THE Albury branch of the Australian Red Cross is set to be reformed as need for the support service grows. At least 10 people will meet today to discuss the details of resurrecting the branch, which organiser Jill Fielder said was almost certain to go ahead. “The branch will be reformed but we just need to figure out when and where we can meet, things like that,” she said. While Albury has a Red Cross blood service and first aid unit, it doesn’t have a branch, which are used to raise money and assist people with personal support in times of emergency. “We’ve got branches in Table Top, Culcairn, Holbrook, Howlong and Brocklesby to name a few, but there hasn’t been a branch in Albury since it dissolved seven years ago,” Jill Fielder explained. “There’s a growing need for support services here.
“If we can get the branch back up and running we can create an office and have a phone number and point of contact so people know we’re available to help.” Ms Fielder, publicity officer for the Table Top Red Cross branch, said re-opening the service could allow new programs to be introduced in the area. “There’s a parenting program which we hope to get, and that’s currently being run successfully in Sydney,” she said. “It could allow us to get very active in the area. “It would allow us to better help those people that are most in need.” Ms Fielder said the Red Cross has been active during floods in Holbrook and Culcairn and supported people affected by the Gerogery fires in 2009. The meeting is scheduled for 10am at Adamshurst in David Street, Albury. For more information call 6041 6658 or 6041 4260.

Education the key: Mourik
Abortion protests ‘are outrageous’
Students get great learning from clinic
By BLAIR THOMSON EDUCATING young people on the importance of sexual health and contraception is a vital step in reducing termination rates, according to a leading Border doctor. Dr Pieter Mourik, who recently left Wodonga Hospital after 38 years in obstetrics, said he vehemently opposed anti-abortion protesters at Albury’s termination clinic in Englehardt Street. “But it is abhorrent that there are 100,000 abortions in Australia each year,” he said. “What we need to be doing is educating people in sexual education and contraception and the morning after pill. “But there will always be a need for termination, because 30 per cent of people who turn up have failed contraception.” Dr Mourik, who educates medical students on terminations, said The Helpers of God’s Precious Infants, who protest at the termination clinic each Thursday, were “unchristian” “How dare anybody judge anyone else,” he said. “My students go there and they’re intimidated. “One student was pursued by a man in a hat, telling her he was there to help, and she rang me in tears. “They’re crossing to an illegal act by obstructing people, by intimidating people, making them feel uncomfortable and giving them offensive literature.” He said a mother and her daughter, who was the victim of sexual assault, had been approached by the group and intimidated, and were too distraught to talk publicly about the incident. Dr Mourik said he hoped the pro-life group would abandon their weekly protest but said the issue shows no signs of abating.
By BLAIR THOMSON MEDICAL students from Albury’s Rural Clinical School are about to begin their final exams. And the good news is that half of the 12 students will stay in regional areas when they graduate. Senior obstetrics and gynaecology lecturer Dr Pieter Mourik said the school was addressing the need for doctors outside of the cities. “It was set up about eight years ago and it’s one of the best things the Federal Government has ever done to recruit young doctors to the country,” he said. Dr Mourik, who recently completed his last night on call as an obstetrician at Wodonga Hospital, said there was a need for doctors on the Border. “I work 72 hours straight,” he told NewsWeekly ahead of his last shift. “We’re in desperate need for another obstetrician, like now, in the next month … it’s not safe working 72 hours in a row. “We need at least three more obstetricians here.” Located near Albury Base Hospital, the Rural Clinical School gives fourth, fifth and sixth year medical students hands-on access to patients. “They get better access than any student in Sydney,” Dr Mourik said. “There are 120 major topics we have to cover in women’s health, they see 160 to 180 patients, and there were only six topics that they didn’t see. “They get great experience.” Student Louise Killen, originally from Sydney, said the school had reduced the students’ apprehension of working in regional practices. “It’s changed our perspective,” she said. “I was a bit apprehensive having come from a big city but I’d definitely consider coming back.”

Abi take new look at city’s past
HISTORY: One of Abi Thompson’s lino cut prints portraying the former Wodonga Post Office.
LOCAL artist Abi Thompson has worked in partnership with the Wodonga Historical Society and Wodonga community members to research and document the history of Wodonga’s High St and create a pictorial frieze through hand-coloured lino cut prints. The High Street Project is being funded through the City of Wodonga’s Arts and Cultural Contribution Program. Ms Thompson said the project’s aim was to create a visual record of the original Wodonga CBD and its residents prior to
the revitalisation of the city. “It has been terrific working with the historical society and older members of the local community,� she said. “I have used photographic records to map a section of High Street as it was in the first 50 years of the 20th century. “I hope the project promotes discussion and dialogue between older residents and the everchanging community, which will take us into the future.� The project will be launched on Thursday, October 6 at 10am at Arts Space Wodonga (cnr of
Lawrence and Hovell streets) as part of Wodonga Senior Celebrations. Free morning tea will be provided. It will be an opportunity to hear the stories that go with these beautiful pictures and share the amazing history of Wodonga’s High Street. The project will be available for viewing until Saturday, October 8 at Arts Space Wodonga, with other venues to be announced. Wodonga Senior Celebrations has more than 40 events for older people in the Wodonga
community, so there is something for everyone during the month of October. The Wodonga Council-run event coincides with the Victorian Seniors Festival, which is an opportunity to celebrate the rich contributions of older people within the community. Bookings are required by phoning 1300 796 222. Payments can be made at the council’s Hovell St office between 9am and 1pm weekdays.

The Rmax is under evaluation for several government departments. Agricultural uses include spraying, seeding, remote sensing, precision agriculture, frost mitigation and variable rate dispersal. Yamaha report that most units are going to existing contract sprayers and weed control businesses.

ONE of the most exciting new products to be showcased at Henty Field days this year is the Yamaha Rmax unmanned agricultural helicopter. These flying computers are used extensively in Japan for rice spraying and seeding but are just starting to appear here. While they are not designed to replace a manned crop duster, they solve problems for small, difficult access, steep, dangerous or wet areas. Operated by remote control, they’re typically used on medium to high value row crops, however niche markets are continually being developed. The Rmax uses its 7.5m swath to cover two acres in six minutes, regardless of terrain, obstacles or mud.

Learn to beat stress
Balloon Day aims to reinforce need to keep kids safe By BERNADETTE CANNIZZARO KEEPING children safe in our community was the focus of the day at Woodland Grove, Wodonga on Tuesday to raise awareness for child protection week. “Fly a white balloon” is a local initiative first seen 12 years ago, with a purpose to break the silence on child sex abuse. Founder Ilena Young said she was proud to see her community event grow and be taken on by the Lions Club who have now introduced the event to 62 Lion Clubs in North East Victoria and the Riverina. “Child abuse effects families,” Wodonga Volunteers Events Co-Ordinator Nancy Gaskin said. “When a child is abused it has a ripple effect, families can be torn apart. “It only takes a few people to ruin the lives of a child but the rest of the community are there to help and that is the message we want to send to those who have been abused. “The children are our future. We need to ensure we have a safe community for them to grow up in, so they can be positive, loving people.” Myths would have society believe perpetrators are dirty old men hiding in bushes. This is not the case. Statistics show 34 per cent of those who are sexually abused are by family members. A further 59 per cent are friends or acquaintances of the child or family such as neighbours, coaches, teachers and so on. “It’s not just about stranger danger, it’s people danger, Ms Gaskin said. “Children have a wonderful radar. “They naturally know when someone makes them feel uncomfortable. “There are parts of the body that are sacred and should not be touched.”

Swooping birds bring danger
By BLAIR THOMSON BORDER residents beware. Birds have begun swooping in the area. As the weather begins to warm up, birds including magpies, magpie-larks and plovers have started to defend their newborns and unhatched eggs against potential predators. And unfortunately for bike riders, joggers and walkers, the animals don’t distinguish between actual threats from cats and other birds and people simply enjoying a stroll in the park or leisurely ride. “There is no denying it – no one likes to be swooped by a bird,” Department of Sustainability and Environment senior wildlife officer Emily Gibson said.
“It can turn a pleasant walk or bike ride into a stressful and potentially painful experience. “The best strategy is for people to avoid areas where they know a bird is likely to swoop them.” The DSE has an online Victorian Magpie Map and Wodonga Council has a list of previous swooping sites on its website. Tips to avoid being attacked include putting cable ties and eyes on helmets if bike riding, attaching flags to a bike, using an umbrella in swooping areas and wearing hats and sunglasses for protection. And aggressive responses can make the bird’s behaviour worse.

Time to look to your security and be on the front foot as ...
Spring brings new crime problems WE have enjoyed a relatively few quiet months in regards to stealing property from motor vehicles. However over the last few weeks there has been an increase. Continual education has highlighted the fact that this is an opportunistic crime and earlier in the year stealing from motor vehicles was the highest crime category for the Albury Local Area Command. In media reports it was highlighted that more than 50 per cent of these types of crimes occurred because vehicles were not locked. Two distinct methods in relation to stealing from motor vehicles have appeared.
Firstly the thieves are taking money and leaving behind iPhones, cameras and other valuable items left in vehicles. Secondly the thieves are taking every item of value left in the vehicles. Again we emphasise to everyone to remove all valuables from your vehicles and ensure that when your vehicle is unattended, the vehicle is to be locked. Spring is representative of change. The changes that occur in our area related to policing includes an increase of tourists to the town, usually groups of people celebrat-

damage and assaults begin to increase. We try to reinforce responsible drinking and behaviour and remind everyone to reinforce this with family and friends. Also at this time of the year we start to receive calls about swooping magpies. Such events can be reported to the council and Albury Police. We work together to identify locations of swooping magpies and warn everyone through the media. Magpies are a protected species and cannot be shot simply because they are swooping. In serious cases, permits can
be obtained and this can occur dependent upon the circumstances and safety to the community. A break in school terms commences for all schools in September. Many people start to think about travel, planning for Christmas and activities to do over the warmer months. This brings an increase in retail theft. Businesses that haven’t already done so are encouraged to seek guidance from our Crime Prevention Officer in relation to improved security for their premises especially if they have been past victims of retail theft.

or those that know me, there are no surprises when I say that France is my number one favourite country, and by extension Paris is the premièr city. Over the past decade or so, I have managed to get there most years and withdrawal symptoms had started to set in since my last visite (en route to the Burgundy Wine Show) in early 2010. The Child Bride is not one for wine shows, but this time there are none, so happily she is my companion in the City of Light. Probably just as well, as half of the Border district seems to be heading to la belle France in September. On Friday night it was dinner with a medico mate from Albury and, as we headed to CDG Airport, three separate sets of locals were arriving, including Barb Lowery, your very talented AWNW food columnist. Clearly, this was not a good time to bring your mistress to gay Pareè and hope to get away with it. Had Paris changed since last year? Not one whisker! If there is an air of depression in Europe about the falling Euro or despair with the financial sea anchor called Greece, it hasn’t affected the Parisian way of life one jot. The cafes are full, tourism is booming (albeit with a shift to visitors from Asia these days, rather than the traditional American market) and the shops dealing in haute couture are going gangbusters. On Friday night I returned to Restaurant Oscar with my now exhausted medico mate (he had just conquered Mont Ventoux on his road bike – no mean feat!) and his delightful daughter. Oscar is a little
PAUL MUNTZ
restaurant off the main drag, in sight of the Eiffel Tower, but you need a GPS to find it. It is (or was) a Bib Gourmand restaurant, meaning that its food quality and service, etc were good enough to place it on the cusp of getting a first Guide Michelin star, but without the hoo-ha and crippling prices. It was a delight, and importantly no second mortgage wa s needed on the house to pay the bill. On Saturday evening, Parisian friends took us to Le 6 New York, their favourite diner, for what proved to be a first class evening. When they told us of their choice, I was a tad apprehensive, fearing that the frites would become fries, and the steak tartare cooked just easy over and placed in a hamburger bun. Not so. Classic French cuisine, a restaurant full of Parisians, and a noticeable absence of Americans (thank you, GFC) – a worthy star in the Parisian dining firmament, but maybe a change of name is needed? No way! The days were filled with visits to Poilâne, arguably the finest boulangerie in Paris, and to Pierre Hermè who is producing extraordinary flavour combinations with the ubiquitous macaron (macaroons for us Aussies). Finally, a food trip in Paris would not be complete without a visit to the famous Rue Cler market street – a foodies delight, and with a fascinating history, including a tart shop located in the premises of the last horse butcher in the area. A look at Paris in the 1920s – Party central and just about every piece of naughtiness you can imagine.

ardens along the Border have been quite spectacular this spring! Everywhere you look there is beauty, and Magnolias, which grow so well in our area, have contributed to the scene. There are well over 100 species of evergreen and deciduous shrubs and trees in the Magnolia genus, most originating in East Asia and the Americas. Because they enjoy our climatic conditions, they look healthy and flower prolifically. The flowers stand out on the deciduous varieties because they appear before the leaves do later in the month. Magnolia flowers are generally large and appear from attractive furry buds, which can be slightly frost-tender. Some are white or a creamy colour, others are mauvey-pink with white streaks. Most are goblet-shaped. Some are saucer-like flat blooms, and yet others are like big stars. Deciduous magnolias have oval-shaped leaves with smooth edges. In the spring they are a lime green but darken as the warmer months follow. In the autumn, they turn yellow and then

brown. The tree does not hold them for long enough for them to be unsightly. The leaves of the evergreen varieties such as the magnificent bull-bay (Magnolia grandiflora) are a beautiful glossy dark green with a rust-coloured underside, much sought after for floral decorations. Magnolias like a sunny spot though prefer not to get a lot of the Western sun. Their flowers, with their large petals, don’t like the wind. The preferred soil is a deep loam, with organic matter added. The required pH is neutral – around 6 – 8. Once planted, they prefer not to be disturbed. Their roots are quite shallow and a little fragile, so they benefit from summer-mulching. Magnolia soulangeana is the most common deciduous variety grown here. There are so many cultivars, but among the best are “Alexandrina” which has flowers
with purple-pink petals on the outside but white on the inside. “Lennei” has puffed-up flowers rather like doves! - which are rosey-purple. “Rustica Rubra” and “Triumphans” are reliable flowerers too. Magnolia stellata, which is one of the smaller growers, has slightly scented, star-like flowers with strappy petals, and grows to about 4m maximum. There are pink and white-flowering varieties. One with similar shaped, very pretty pale pink flowers is Magnolia x loebneri “Leonard Messel”. It grows to about 6m in the typical magnolia vase shape. “Elizabeth” has creamy yellow flowers, and Magnolia liliflora “Nigra” and “Holland Red” both have much darker plum-coloured blooms. There are yet other varieties which flower later in the spring (Magnolia wilsonii, M. sinensis and M. sieboldii) so you could have magolias in bloom in your garden for several months if you choose your varieties carefully. The last to flower is the superbly scented Magnolia grandiflora during the summer months. It becomes a huge tree if looked after.

By BLAIR THOMSON THE complex stories of Jim and Phil Krakouer will be brought to life on the Albury Entertainment Centre stage tomorrow (Saturday) night. The indigenous brothers rose to fame in the early 1980s with their new style of Australian rules dubbed “black magic” drawing praise from many in the football word. But both men faced adversity and controversy on the path to the big league, during their careers, and in life after football. “They dealt with a lot of things like racism,” explains Leon Burchill, who plays Jim in the production. “And Jimmy obviously spent time in jail, being in trouble with the law, but it’s him looking back on that and saying that life goes on. “The audience can see both the mistakes and the success that they have experienced and judge it for themselves; we don’t preach to them.” Burchill said the play, simply titled Krakouer!, follows the duo from their early childhoods, when they developed a love of the game, through to their careers and beyond. “And it looks at the people like friends and family and coaches that inspired them throughout the journey,” he said. “I’ve experienced similar things, maybe not to that extent, but I can relate to a lot of the things Jimmy went through. “It’s for all ages, but mainly for school kids because we want to affect the younger generation in a positive way.”

Barker to give his all in show ARJ Barker is set to return to the Border this month to perform his new stand up show at the Albury Entertainment Centre. The acclaimed comedian, best known for his work on the stand up circuit and as Dave in Flight of the Conchords, will fearlessly tackle topics like 3D movies, Google Maps and prawns in the hourlong set. Tickets for the September 28 show range from $39.90 for concession holders and groups of 10 plus, to $44.90 for adults. Phone 6043 5610 for details.
While Burchill has never met the man he plays, Phil Krakouer often tags along when the show tours. “It’s great to get the feedback from Phil to say you’ve hit the nail on the head, especially because I’ve never met Jimmy,” he said. “We’ve got a lot of footage of them and a book that I constantly read, which is how I try to get his character. “When people ask what the biggest challenge was, I say ‘everything’.” That’s especially true when it comes to the physical scenes in Krakouer! “I’m originally from Queensland, I used to play NRL,” Burchill said. “I didn’t grow up with AFL so I had to learn a lot of the ball skills and how the game works because we use footballs on stage. “We actually have to practice our skills every day before the shows to keep them up to speed. “When you’ve got people that follow AFL, especially in Victoria, they’ll notice if you don’t do a handball or kick right and there are a lot of footy fans that come to the shows. “So gee, there’s no pressure or nothin’.” Burchill is joined by Sean Dow, who plays Phil Krakouer and Luke Hewitt, who takes close to 30 different characters. “It’s been well received and the feedback we’ve gotten has been largely positive,” Burchill said. “But you’re only as good as your last audience.” Krakouer! shows at the Albury Entertainment Centre on Saturday for one night only. For more information call 6043 5610.

Artists society shows off work
BOXOFFICE By BLAIR THOMSON MOVIE: Final Destination 5 (MA) DURATION: 92 minutes IT’S hard to comprehend that the fifth instalment in a film franchise could be anything but utter rubbish. But, against all odds, the creators of the new Final Destination have created a brilliant piece of entertainment. While the jury’s out on whether or not the B-Movie feel is intentional, it has certainly turned out that way ... and it’s hilarious. It may seem morbid to laugh at a movie which is essentially a bunch of people meeting their demise, but the manner in which it happens – a person falling off a bridge onto a sail boat mast, for example – is gold. The storyline is simple enough; the lead characters (played by no actors of particular notoriety) have cheated death. They were supposed to die in a bridge collapse but avoided their fate. Now destiny catches up with them. The writers and special effects guys have focused all their attention on creating bizarre scenarios in which the characters are killed off, one after the other. The dialogue, acting and story take a back seat in the movie; the ultra-gory death scenes, which have a cartoon-like quality, are the real stars of the show. 3D is used masterfully in such morbid moments with guts, brains and eyeballs visually showered over audience members. The movie is a prime example of how 3D should be used and directors should take note that restrain is often a good thing when it comes to relatively-new technology. Final Destination 5 is a sheep in wolf’s clothing, a comedy hidden under a layer of blood and guts and an great way to spend 1½ hours.

PAINTER: Albury Wodonga Artists Society member Meg Brown is one of several people who will have artwork displayed from this weekend. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON. By BLAIR THOMSON LOCAL artists will be given the opportunity to show their talents when the Albury Wodonga Artists Society Exhibition 2011 opens tonight. Featuring about 60 works across two venues, the show contains works from Border painters of various levels and styles. “You could say the group is fairly traditional, leaning towards realism, but we’re getting young members painting more modern works,” Albury Wodonga Artists Society president Heather Sparks said. “There are people in the group that have been art teachers and have backgrounds in art but also people just starting out, so we get a nice mix. “It’s an annual event that’s been running
for almost 25 years now, and a chance for our members to have their works shown.” This year’s exhibition is spread across Arts Space Wodonga and the Garden Gallery Cafe at the Wodonga Plant Farm. “We held it at Gateway Village last year but had to upgrade because we needed space to hang all the works,” Ms Sparks explained. “We usually get tremendous support.” The group operates out of The PaintBox studios at Gateway Village with workshops held throughout the year. “People are most welcome to come in and have a look around,” Ms Sparks said. “There may be artistic people that have maybe moved to the area and don’t know where everything is, so the studio is a great place to start out.”
Friday, September 9 The Albury Wodonga Artists Society annual members exhibition opens at Wodonga Arts Space at 5.30pm, and the Garden Gallery Cafe at Wodonga Plant Farm on Sunday at 3pm. Runs until October 1. Enquiries 6059 5306. The Australian Red Cross information morning tea to reform the Albury Red Cross Branch, at Adamshurst in David Street, Albury. Starts 10am, costs $10.

The possibilities are endless ARE you the Border’s next big renovator or looking for a central Wodonga investment property? Then this older style Wodonga home could be the one for you. The spacious home consists of three bedrooms plus study and is situated just a short walk to Centro Wodonga shops making for an ideal investment opportunity. Your options are endless with a large flat block so close to the CBD and a little TLC or serious renovations could turn a modest investment into a cash reward. Classic high ceilings and a large lounge with gas heating and air conditioning begin the canvas, the original kitchen with gas cooking adds to the possibilities.
The master bedroom includes huge built in robes with the remaining two and the study of original design. The spacious tiled family room provides and extra living area and is kept cosy in winter with a wall furnace and cool in the warmer months with an air conditioner. The large rear yard includes a shed for the garden tools and plenty of space for the children to play or possible future development with council approval. Indeed the savvy renovator is sure to see no end of real potential with all liveable options in place plus the opportunity to stamp your own style on the property and create something special in an extremely convenient location.
The REINSW says the dream of home ownership has ended for many Australians as a result of cuts to stamp duty concessions for first home buyers in the NSW State Budget. The comments were made following the O’Farrell Government’s decision to slash first home buyers benefits by removing stamp duty concessions for existing homes. “This is really disappointing news for families, essential workers and all those trying to buy their first home,” REINSW president, Wayne Stewart said. “Unfortunately for some, the dream of home ownership will now become simply unachievable. “And in the broader context when the storm clouds are gathering over the global economic outlook, the decision is troubling. “Australia weathered the last global financial crisis because the property market was invigorated yet those lessons have been ignored today. “The REINSW believes that the budget initiatives will worsen the housing affordability and housing availability crisis gripping the state and hurting first home buyers.
“While the announcement of a release of an additional 10,000 land sites is welcomed, it will have little impact as we would expect most of those sites would be well beyond the reach of first home buyers. “The REINSW is not seeing anything in the Budget which goes to the heart of the housing affordability and availability crisis. “It is unfortunate that the decision to cut first home buyers stamp duty concessions on existing properties will only serve to increase house prices and further erode housing affordability. “It is inevitable that as first home buyers scramble to beat the January 1 deadline, we will see prices increase as demand exceeds supply. “The flow on effects for NSW are serious, both in metropolitan as well as regional and rural centres. “The government’s announcement of hundreds of additional nurses, teachers, police and other frontline workers is laudable but as we have argued for years now, where will they be able to afford to live that is close to where they work?”
Credit Union buys Beechworth premises WAW Credit Union has purchased its current premises at 19 Camp St Beechworth. The purchase will allow important renovations of the building with particular focus on addressing long-standing
issues that the community has raised with current owners related to disabled access and the facade of the building. WAW CEO, Mr Peter Challis was delighted with
the purchase decision. “We have been acutely aware of the issues surrounding disability access but until now have been unable to undertake significant structural renovations,” he said.

HIA announces first region win
F & J SANDERS Builder Pty Ltd has won the HIA-Building Commission south-east Victoria Regional Home of the Year for its spectacular Red Hill South home. Judged by industry professionals, the HIA Awards acknowledge the talent of designers, builders and building companies who plan and construct quality new housing and apartments, and renovations and outdoor projects. Regional awards are held in South East Victoria, Central Victoria-Mildura, North East Victoria, and Western Victoria each year. All regional winners become automatic finalists for
their respective categories at the HIA-CSR Victorian Housing and Kitchen and Bathroom Awards to be held in November at Crown Towers. The winner is the ultimate in energy efficiency and luxury. Spread over three levels the home has expansive open plan living, with polished concrete flooring throughout, four bedrooms, study, rumpus room, four bathrooms plus a separate powder room, plant/service room, three car garage and outbuilding. The large undercover barbecue pavilion with inground pool makes it perfect
Agent’s Choice

for entertaining while extensive decking and balconies off each bedroom allow for tranquillity. The extensive use of natural materials including recycled spotted gum, large black butt posts, used both internally and externally, sees this home complement its rural surrounds. The design of the home allows it to feel light and airy and cleverly incorporates the fall of the site. Large open windows maximise the view. The judges believed the quality throughout the home was of a very high standard. The home was entered in the over $1 million custombuilt category.

ALBURY’S St Patrick’s Primary School has been crowned Paul Kelly AFL cup champions for 2011 after a strong 5.5.35 - 2.3.15 win over Newcastle’s Belmont Christian at the home of Greater Western Sydney Giants this week. Coach Tony Hill said it was “sensational” to take the title in such dominating style. “We travelled up to Blacktown with 16 boys from St Pats to play in a round robin situation and won the three games in our pool,” Hill said. “We crossed over to the quarter final and won that by about 10 goals then went into the semi final and won that 75-19 then played the grand final and won it too.” With 32 teams from around the state participating in the competition Hill said it was a credit to the boys to take such a strong victory. “We were quietly confident of making it to the semi final stage based on last year’s results,” he said. “We were by far the strongest team here based on our round games but we were made to work hard in the final.” Hill said the boys sang the team song with gusto and were presented with their medals by Michael O’Loughlin and Brett Kirk. “Kirky was there for our semi final and final talking to the kids,” Hill said
Andrew Jones takes co-driver role as Bright says ...
Tyres key on island
THE V8 Supercar series heads to Phillip Island next weekend and the Brad Jones Racing stable has announced its driver paring for the BOC racing team. Most notably Jason Richards won’t be driving the endurance rounds at the Island or Bathurst due to his ongoing battle with cancer and Andrew Jones will be stepping into the driver’s seat. BOC Commodore driver, Jason Bright said it was disappointing Richards wouldn’t be in the seat as his co driver but said his health was the most important thing at the moment. “It’s a massive shame,” Bright said. “As far as drivers I want in the car with me I’d love to have JR out there, and if he was feeling up to it no doubt he’d be jumping in but Phillip Island can be a very tough race let alone Bathurst. “The main priority at the moment is I want him back as a team mate next year rather than just the enduros … let’s hope he can just concentrate on getting better.” Bright said Jones would provide plenty of pace and experience in a car that looks ideally suited to the fast Phillip Island layout. “We’re fortunate we’ve still got very good drivers to slot in there and Andy did a great job last year with JR,” Bright said. “As far as guys that are fast and have got the experience he would be right up the top of the list with guys you’d try to snatch to drive with you anyway.”
CONFIDENT: Jason Bright says his Brad Jones Racing BOC commodore is looking good to tackle the notorious Phillip Island circuit next weekend. Bright said the pace of the BOC tyre life is very critical, that could car and the tyre life they’ve been be a pretty big benefit.” able to extract throughout each Some lack-lustre results in restint in race trim proved to be a fast cent rounds has seen Bright slip and efficient package and he said down the driver’s championship their qualifying times had been on standings and he was hoping to imthe improve. prove on that at the Island. “I think pace wise we’re looking And Phillip Island is notorious very good at the moment,” Bright for throwing up many challenges said. including the weather but Bright “I think our qualifying speed is said he was feeling confident the much better now and I think we’ve team and the car were up to the still got good tyre life. job. “Going into the enduro series, “It’s been pretty disappointing particularly Phillip Island where to slip from fourth to twelfth just

St Pat’s win Paul Kelly AFL final
in that three round period but the points are still all very close,” he said. “If you have a good run at the enduros you can leap back up there pretty quickly because all the points are paid for one race but it can also be very punishing this time of year if you don’t finish either of those races. “Assuming we’ve got good reliability I reckon we can have a good run at the enduros but Phillip Island is one of those joints where the weather does usually play a part in the race. “I’ve been there weekends where it’ll be dry all weekend then all of a sudden the weather will play a pretty big part in the actual race. “The trick is to have the strategy and be able to react to whatever the conditions throw at you … it’s one of those places it can go either way.” But Bright again returned to the tyre life factor. “The right rear tyre there really struggles and if you’ve got a car that’s even slightly oversteery you’re likely to be in a lot of trouble,” he said. “Once that tyre goes away you don’t just lose half a second a lap, you lose multiple seconds per lap and your whole day can be ruined by one bad stint. “Hopefully our car tyre life will be as strong as what it has been, and I have no reason to think that it won’t be, and it’ll probably play a pretty big factor in the way the day goes.”
Falcons show they have eyes only for the flag FALCONS have secured a grand final berth with an impressive 8-1 win over United in the first semi final of domestic hockey on the weekend. Falcons coach, John Jewell said his team’s discipline at both ends of the field brought about the result. “We were very strict on not carrying the ball unnecessarily and allowing United to back tackle,” he said. “Our forwards were able to get good quality ball from midfield which gave us more chances to score. “Our defence held their nerve under pressure and due to tight marking gave few chances to the United forwards.” Wodonga booked a spot in this week’s preliminary final against United after drawing 4-all with Norths. Wodonga started strongly with Josh Pritchard scoring from a tomahawk shot but their jubilation was short lived. Joel Anderson made a strong run that caught the Wodonga defenders napping and slotted the first of his two goals. Just minutes later Norths hit the front
courtesy of Carlin Webster who found space inside the circle. Wodonga regained their composure and were able to score three more before half time but Norths came back in the second half to level the score at full time. Norths women ensured their shot at the flag, progressing to the grand final with a 2-0 win over Magpies. Norths’ tight defence denied Magpies a score despite a late chance from a penalty corner, however Norths’ keeper, Sam Campbell was equal to the task. Meanwhile Wodonga continued their progression with a 5-0 win over Falcons. First half scores to Jessie Lucas and Riley Sutherland gave Wodonga a valuable lead at half time and a further goal each in the second half kept the momentum flowing. Wodonga coach, Dennis Martin was pleased with the result and the way his team played. “We moved the ball a lot better this week and we gave away minimal turnovers,” he said.

From back page finished so strongly in the Victorian state titles which now gives her the number 3 Vic Chicks plate to run on her bike. “It was a really big improvement and achievement for me,” Teala said. “I tried my hardest and it was just so good coming third.” Teala said the competition was tougher than the Northern Regions series with eight of the best from Victoria vying for the podium places. “I was just trying to stay strong and improve all the
time to try to keep up with them,” she said. “I’m really proud of myself to get this far and be living my dream.” Teala’s father, Rob was equally proud. “For a privateer to come up and get to that against team riders, it’s a good achievement,” he said And despite the obvious fear of injury with a couple of crashes throughout the course of the season Rob said he simply supported his daughter’s passion. “All I wish is she doesn’t hurt herself and she gets up and goes again,” he said.
“She gets to the front and has a crash and has to do all that hard work again … she tries her hardest to get there.” And the hard work seems to have paid off with Teala now gaining the notice of bike shops with sponsorship dollars wanting to help her to the next level. “I’ve been talking with a couple of shops and sponsors,” Rob said. “It’s been a long hard road to get there and not be recognised until we’ve made a big achievement and now being recognised, it’s just like being on top of the world.”

Eight of Thurgoona’s nine football and netball teams managed to make finals this season and five were still in the running to make grand final games, three of those already having a grand final berth booked. The seniors and reserves grade football teams and the 15 and under netballers have all progressed through with B grade and 18 and under netballers playing off this week in preliminary finals. This continues on from Thurgoona’s recent success with their Good Sports programs and Mr Way was quick to praise all involved with the club on and off the field. “It’s a huge thrill for everyone in the club,” he said. “It’s an award that recognises the strength of of the whole club, of all the grades of football and netball so to win that again the second year in a row is terrific for the club. “A lot of people have put a lot of work in. “The response and the support from Thurgoona community and businesses has been terrific in the last four or five years so we hope we provide a good service to the community.”
ALBURY Tigers have left no doubt of their ability to take yet another O&M flag this season while Wodonga Raiders have stumbled at the crucial time of the season to bow out of the finals race. The Tigers’ emphatic 144-103 victory over the only other real flag contender, Yarrawonga now more than ever begs the question, can anyone stand up to the reigning premiers? The Pigeons were not without their chances in the possible grand final preview with a strong first quarter showing they could keep pace with the Tiger juggernaut, trailing by just a solitary point at quarter time. But that was pretty much all she wrote! Albury began to step on the gas in the second and went to the long break with a two goal lead before running rampant with an eightgoal burst in the third. Just four goals from the Pigeons in that term put them well and truly on the back foot and six straight majors from the Tigers in the final term buried Yarrawonga’s hopes of progressing straight through to that final game of the year. In contrast the Raiders were never in the game against a fast running Lavington, suffering a 106-47 drubbing. A 6.6-1.0 first term set the scene and the game ran to script from there on. John Spencer was out of sorts up forward for the Raiders, only contributing two goals but it’s tough to score when the midfield can’t deliver the ball. And that’s where the Panthers excelled. They simply ran the Raiders’ midfield ragged, capitalising on any mistakes to move the ball forward and apply scoreboard pressure to dash the hopes of the Red and Blue. And while the Panthers have stumbled in recent weeks they certainly stood up and turned it on for their fans and will now have their eyes set on a win this weekend against the Pigeons. But that’s a big call and while the Pigeons may well have suffered

We knew that we had struck a special chord with many local residents when releasing the Albury-Wodonga 12 Week Your Best Body Challenge. The weather was fantastic and I
knew that we would have a few people come through and ‘officially’ complete their registration, but none of us were quite prepared for the total number. After over 2 hours of solid registration, and prior registrations leading into the event we had 315 local people focused on getting fit for 2012. I am sure; this would have to be the
biggest fitness challenge of its kind to ever hit the border region After a brief introduction to our training, it was back to the studio for a mountain of data entry (thanks Clare) to determine our fitness groups, with the REAL fun starting on the 12th. Let the challenge to better health begin!

RIDING HIGH WITH TREVOR JACKSON
Title caps off season
BORDER motocross rider, Teala Petz is on top of the world after a successful 2011 season of racing. Teala took first place in the Northern Regions series in her age group and a just as impressive third place in the Victorian State titles. At just 14 years of age Teala races against some of the best 13-16 year old girls in the state. To finish with such a strong performance is a credit to not just her ability but also her passion for the sport and hard work throughout the season. Teala described the feeling of winning the Northern Regions and finishing third in the state as being “speechless”. Coming into the final round of the Northern Regions Teala held a gap of around 19 points to second place and only needed to finish to take the title and won it with a 13-point margin. But she said she was proud to have Continued page 22
