Border business strong: survey ALBURY Wodonga businesses are still confident in the strength of the local economy. They say that the next 12 months will be equally as positive, according to results from the latest Albury Wodonga local business survey. A total of 392 businesses from all industry sectors completed the survey, with 38 per cent reporting an increase in profits for the past year. One in five businesses expected a change in employee numbers over the next year, with 85 per cent of those saying they would add more staff. There was also continued confidence in the future of the local economy, with 67 per cent of respondents stating that the next 12 months will be positive or very positive for business in Albury Wodonga. Approximately half the survey respondents intend to make capital investments over the coming year. AlburyCity director economic development and tourism, Tracey Squire, was happy with the results of the survey. “I think they’re very positive, obviously it’s only a sample of the business in Albury Wodonga but at the end of the day, the fact that nearly 38 per cent increased profits is really positive,” she said. “The fact that nearly 17 per cent expect to increase employment and half intend to make a capital investment in the next year is positive for the sectors.” The survey was conducted as part of the Albury Wodonga Business Directory project, a joint initiative of the Albury Wodonga Corporation, AlburyCity and the City of Wodonga. The directory, located at www.alburywodonga.gov.au, includes a search engine, providing a quick and easy way for local residents to search for border businesses.

Special reason to remember

REMEMBRANCE: Supt Peter DeSanto, John Bailey, and Supt Gary Commins remember the police who have died during duty at a ceremony at St Matthews Church in Albury. Picture: ROD HARDINGE

By BLAIR THOMSON NATIONAL Police Remembrance Day is an important day for all serving police and the friends and families of ofﬁcers killed on duty, but for 81-year-old John Bailey, the day has special signiﬁcance. The Border resident is proud to pay tribute to his father, Eric “Bill” Bailey, who was shot several times outside the Adelaide Hotel in Blayney, and amazingly managed to handcuff his killer, who was a wanted man, before succumbing to his wounds. Bill was posthumously awarded the prestigious George Cross Medal for his

heroic actions on that warm January night in 1945. “It means a lot to me … it has done for the last 65 odd years,” John told NewsWeekly after the remembrance service at Saint Matthews Church in Albury. “I’m obviously pretty proud of what he did, and I’ve been to every Police Remembrance Day since it started.” John still remembers the story of the night his father died quite clearly. “It was his ﬁrst day working for the Blayney police … he went to work on the Friday afternoon and by 8 o’clock that night he was dead.” Continued page 2

Police hero dad is remembered From page 1 “He’d introduced himself around the town and some civilians said there was someone dressed in an American serviceman uniform with a gun earlier that afternoon. “Dad found him, his name was Cyril Norman, and questioned him and said he’d search his hotel room where he was staying. “Norman grabbed a gun out of his pocket and shot dad in the stomach, and he was mortally wounded. “Dad wrestled with him, and held him down … he laid on this fella in the gutter … some railway detectives had heard the shots and came around, he told them where his handcuffs were and arrested him, and then died in the ambulance.” His killer was wanted for the murder of Maurice Hannigan in Sydney two days before the incident. He killed Hannigan in a King Street gun shop, and stole the weapon he eventually used to kill Bill. John said his father had been commended for his bravery several times before he was gunned down by Norman. One such incident saw him rescue civilians from a ﬁshing trawler off the coast of Moruya which had been attacked by a Japanese submarine during World War II. “Dad went out with another policeman and commandeered a 22-foot boat, and irrespective of the danger, they brought all the crew back in … he was obviously a pretty brave sort of man, to go out in wild seas and rescue them like that,” John said. “Most of them stayed out at our place for a while, the crew … that was just the sort of thing that he’d do.” John himself joined the police force at 16, a year after his father was killed, and went on to spend 42 years with the force. This included a stint with Albury Police.

Mates come up with a winner

Stroke of luck for patients By BLAIR THOMSON A SIMPLE tool manufactured by the Albury Wodonga Woodcrafters is helping stroke victims at Albury Wodonga Health recover from their injuries and regain their independence. The woodcraft members recently manufactured 10 of the devices which help Wodonga Hospital stroke patients cut their own toast, which is otherwise impossible given that stroke victims generally lose the use of one arm. Albury Wodonga Woodcrafters’ treasurer John Anders was keen to build the devices after his mate Bruce Wallace suffered a stroke. “I was in here visiting him, and he said the guys at the woodcrafters might be able to help him,” John explained. “It has a non-skid surface on it, so you can put bits of toast on it and butter it and put jam on it, it has guides to cut the toast, and also there’s a little place there for a yoghurt so it doesn’t slide all across the tray. “The woodcraft members were very willing to make them last time, and they’ll be very willing this time, so

themselves, so by having this they can gain some of that independence,” she said. “We’re very grateful, for them to offer their time and make them for us ... working with them is wonderful.” Patients are also able to take the devices home with them once they have been discharged.

Council will work as one: Glachan

NewsWeekly – Albury Wodonga’s locally owned free weekly newspaper

By PAT KOOPMAN ALBURY mayor Cr Alice Glachan has put the “initial shock” behind her after emerging from Monday night’s mayoral election with a second term. At the same time she has vowed to lead a unified council forward after her name was drawn from an ice bucket to break a four-all deadlock with Cr Henk van de Ven, who will continue as deputy mayor. “I will clearly be leading off on that foot,” Cr Glachan told NewsWeekly. “However, as I’ve gone to some pains to explain a number of times to a number of media and a number of opportunities, while I am the mayor I am not the ‘keeper’ of the councillors. “Clearly we all … all nine councillors … must together show combined leadership and walk the path that we now have cast for ourselves because we have all had a part in this.

Clearly I need to thank the ice bucket “All nine of us have had a part in the decisions that were made on Monday night and we all have to walk that path. “Clearly we will achieve so much more if we walk together.” Cr Glachan said she was surprised to see the voting pattern of Monday night’s mayoral election. “However, I had always maintained when asked about Albury City Council whatever might happen with anything, I’ve always said with Albury City Council anything can happen and it usually does,” she said. “Clearly it played out with this respect and I think there were a lot of people who found the whole situation, the whole scenario, quite interesting.

“Clearly I need to thank the ice bucket.” Cr Glachan said she respected the democratic voting system. “Everyone has an opportunity to vote,” she said. “At the end of the day, we as a group of councillors, are held responsible by our community. “That is more dramatically so every four years with our council elections and clearly I believe that the people will vote accordingly depending upon whether they believe we did the right thing or not on Monday night.” Also at Monday night’s meeting, chairs of the various council committees were appointed. Cr Robert Angus is chair of planning and development, Cr Amanda Duncan-Strelec is chair of engineering and works, Cr Neville Hull is chair of community and cultural, and Cr Daryl Betteridge is chair of finance and administration.

11 Years d ne Locally Owted! a r and Ope

By BLAIR THOMSON FORMER Sydneysiders Jarrod and Trish Murfett finally feel at home after making the move to Albury in December last year. They’ve ditched the long commute to work each day through heavy traffic, and the expensive house prices, and settled into a place they are proud to call home. “It made sense to move down here for the lifestyle and to start a family,” Trish said. “You go to the supermarket and you’ve got the same checkout person so you build up that rapport, and we’ve got a regular butcher now … it’s just those silly things that you take for granted that you don’t necessarily have in a large metropolitan area.” The Murfetts recently moved into their newly built house, and

also welcomed their daughter Aurora into the world a few months ago. Jarrod, who moved to the area for his job in the defence force, said there were no plans to move back to the city. “We wanted to buy a house and couldn’t afford it in Sydney unless you moved about an hour and a half away from work, and then you lose the lifestyle you want to have,” he said. “And there’s everything in Albury that you could ever need .. we’ve got not plans to move back.” The organisers of the Evocities campaign, which had its Albury launch last week, hope many Sydney residents will follow the Murfetts and move to Albury, which is one of seven regional NSW cities involved in the scheme. “Its a first of its kind campaign,

and it’s to attract city dwellers, from predominantly Sydney, to our wonderful location here in Albury and our fantastic region,” Albury mayor Alice Glachan explained. “We know that one in four people in Sydney have actually considered, or would consider, moving to one of our great locations.” The mayor, speaking at the campaign launch, was flanked by several other individuals and families who had moved to Albury from Sydney. “These people have lived in Sydney and are now happy to call Albury home,” she said. “They’re working with us to encourage more Sydneysiders to make the move to Albury too.” AlburyCity has committed $120,000 over three years to attract people to the Border under the EvoCity campaign.

A sad state of affairs THE world can be a scary place and it would seem that Border residents are not immune from the effects of anti-social behaviour. Inspector Lynelle Rodwell’s column in this week’s edition of NewsWeekly highlights an alarming trend within our society. It is a poignant reminder as to where the world is unfortunately heading at the moment. It highlights a lack of respect for people in authority, along with a general disregard for our elders. Alarmingly, it highlights how young children, encouraged by older people who should know better, are encouraged to physically hurt others. Insp Rodwell writes: “What hope is there for any person trying to improve the safety of our community and preserve the peace if parents actively incite the opposite?” And she is absolutely right. Parents are expected to be role models for their children. They are the ones with the responsibility of grooming our leaders of tomorrow through their formative years. Unfortunately, it would seem that some of these parents

are sending the wrong message and simply don’t care. How is it that some people only see violence as a means to an end? Why is it that young children can verbally abuse people in authority without feeling any sense of remorse at all? It would be fair to say that the vast majority of parents do set the right example for their children. But there is an ever increasing element in our society where there are others who have absolutely no respect for the law. Parents take on the responsibility of nurturing and guiding their children through life from the moment they are born. As parents we set the example and guidelines for our offspring. Perhaps we all need to take a long hard look in the mirror. Would you like the person looking back at you? The lessons learned at home are the ones young people take out into the wide, wide world. People in authority deserve to be treated with respect. Unfortunately the onset of the summer months will not provide us any reprieve.

Most women set out to change a man, and when they have changed him they do not like him. ~ Marlene Dietrich

Pollies’ corner

Just another anomoly

Sussan Ley Federal Member for Farrer WELL, this week I am back in Canberra for the start of the new Parliament since the election cliff-hanger in August, but ﬁrstly a quick cheerio to Ivan Schache from Henty. Ivan proudly informed me he was “eighty something” and, despite perfectly timing retirement from the land just prior to the onset of drought in mid 1990s, still makes it to the annual Henty Machinery Field Days each year to check “what the new boys are up to”. During his stop by, Ivan, who made the short trip from the local Sweetwater Retirement Village, veered off into an enlightening chat on whether the elderly should have to re-

Bill Tilley

test annually (or at least more regularly) to have their driver’s licence renewed. Again, it is one of these unique border anomalies for our region which sees the requirements much tighter in NSW than Victoria. I would be fascinated to hear what you think. The tantalising prospect this growing “season” might see a return to past normal Spring conditions which brought a wonderful air of optimism to Henty this year – even those not purchasing just yet were certainly eyeing off possible bargains should those super looking crops continue through to harvest. A quick thank you also to the many who took the trouble to pop by our stand, enjoy the sausage sizzle, grab a balloon for the kids or simply offer a “congratulations” on the election result in Farrer.

I was grateful to have improved my overall result since the last election, but for me the size of the margin isn’t what matters. I take on the role again with many clear aims; perhaps the most vital being to ensure your voice will be clearly heard during this Parliament’s promise of a renewed focus on rural and regional Australia and the issues that uniquely confront us. Climate change, a possible carbon tax, water rights and river management along with the national broadband rollout will obviously dominate headlines and debate. I would also like to take this opportunity to alert you on some new roles I have been allotted by the returned Federal Opposition Leader, Mr Tony Abbott. As Shadow Minister for Childcare and Early Childhood Learning, already

this week I have scheduled meetings with childcare centre operators, family day care mums and other MPs all keen to give me their perspective. Talking with many young families across Farrer, it is quite clear balancing a quality work/life balance against the increasing

Sussan Ley and Ivan Schache at Henty last week.

cost of child care remains a burden for many. Early Childhood Learning is a relatively new portfolio which complements this child care focus and aims to ensure our preschoolers are receiving quality, instructive care not just a “babysitting” service. Achieving improvements while keeping services affordable will be a key issue in coming months and, again, I would welcome your thoughts on these or any other issues concerning you. While child care and pre-school needs are now personally behind me and my three growing children, they certainly will have a view on another added portfolio responsibility; Employment Participation, but a little more on that next time. Until then, take care. – Sussan.

WHERE do I begin? is the question most people ask when thinking about their family history. “There is so little I know and it’s such a vast subject.” That task is about to become a whole lot easier, thanks to Age Concern’s innovative cross-generational learning initiative … Learn to Live, which will launch in midOctober with a course in Family History. Family History (genealogical research) is the fastest growing leisure activity of the decade, especially in the 40s age group, but increasingly among younger people as well. Its popularity in Albury Wodonga was conﬁrmed in a recent survey with family history topping a list of over 20 lifestyle topics. Some people want to research their family in Australia, or their roots in Europe. The course will be held on Wednesday evenings from 7-9pm, commencing October 20 and concluding on December 1.

By PAT KOOPMAN A SPECIAL insight into the role of partnership brokering within the community was outlined to the Border business sector in Albury on Friday. Keynote speaker at the luncheon, hosted by Murray Industry and Community Education Employment Partnership Incorporated (MICEEP), was founder and principal of Dixon Partnership Solutions, Ian Dixon. The main focus of Mr Dixon’s address centred on where partnering generally is moving across the world and nationally. “It is also about how local businesses, schools and communities can get involved in working together more effectively for the benefit of young people, particularly to sustain regional communities into the future,” Mr Dixon told NewsWeekly. Two primary objectives are central to MICEEP’s role.

PARTNERS: At last Friday’s business luncheon were Rod Bramich, MICEEP executive officer Kim Strachan, Ian Dixon and Chris O’Connor. Picture: PAT KOOPMAN

The first is to increase the school retention rate in the region to completion of Year 12 or equivalent. The other main focus is to close the gap for Indigenous young people with their retainment and engagement in school, and hopefully their completion of Year 12 and going on to further employment, education or training. MICEEP’s partnership brokering role is quite

“unique,” according to Mr Dixon. “It’s quite a brave attempt by the Federal Government to look at a new way of going about promoting these partnerships,” he said. “It’s a fantastic opportunity for community groups, schools and businesses to come together and create effective partnerships that will really develop some impact for the community.”

Already the warm weather is bringing out the worst in Alburyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s public behaviour

What are these parents thinking?

Oh dear! If last weekend is anything to go by, we are going to be in for a very busy summer period dealing with an array of violent offences. While the weather hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really even begun to warm up, already many are beginning to come out of their winter hibernation and get back into the social scene with barbecues, functions and social activities. Recently I attended a particularly violent incident well away from the nexus of our high profile Dean Street. Through my policing experiences with alcohol and violence, I am well aware of the situations that result and have seen quite a few nasty events in my time.

They have no respect for others, for the law and dare I say little respect for themselves. The process by which violence is taught is circular. The teaching begins in the family, expands through the culture of the community and larger society in which the child grows and matures and is then again reinforced or discouraged in the family. A growing body of empirical research has demonstrated that exposure to violence deleteriously affects childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s social, emotional and cognitive development. Long term exposure ultimately affects their adult functioning. They can experience anxiety, depression, sleep disturbances and fear.

plimentary words about the police presence that have come gushing from the mouths of some very young female children would be enough to make the most hardened streetwise person blush! Making our community safe and reducing the fear of violence and crime is a responsibility of every member of our community, not just the law enforcers or the council, but each and every individual that lives within our boundaries. The majority of our neighbours, friends and citizens are good people who try to do the right thing. Unfortunately there are others who just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care or see violence as the only means to an end. How do we deal with people like this?

inspector LYNELLE RODWELL What has been most disturbing lately has been the involvement of children â&#x20AC;&#x201C; very young children, especially when words of encouragement are given from adults to those young children to physically hurt others! What hope is there for any person trying to improve the safety of our community and preserve the peace if parents actively incite the opposite? Believe me, the not-so-com-

We can make a difference allowing exposure to more positive behaviour rather than negative behaviour, with positive interaction with those in the community and extended family and by promoting a value of high self-esteem, and finally from leading by example and showing a mature non-violent way of dealing with issues. Ultimately, the success of strategies by support agencies, counselling, council, police and courts relies on the basic assumption and expectation that the initial point of contact to discourage violent behaviour and set the right example rests with the parents. I will be on leave from Monday, and will return with my column early in November.

Performed by dancer Joyoti along with students of her school, this cultural night will celebrate authentic Indian society as we head into the Commonwealth Games to be held in Delhi, India, from October 4-15. Joyoti brings to life the art of ODISSI in her display of rich, dramatic styles, which will be a feast for the spirit as well as for the eyes. The show will be held on Saturday, October 2, at 5.45pm (for 6pm start). Tickets costs $15 for adults, $30 for families (four plus people), $8 for concession/seniors card and free for children under 12.

Health Naturally...

Helping harness power of the mind By PAUL BARRATT-HASSETT from The Evolving Mind THE Soul’s Code is made up of programmed energetic/behavioural contracts. A great way of visualising this is to imagine that the soul’s code is a barcode (just like the ones on items in the supermarket) of finished and unfinished business. The finished business is what has been passed on from past lifetimes (let’s call this wisdom) and the unfinished code is left to be sorted this lifetime (these are our encumbrances). Everyone has a barcode representing the emotional learning’s we desire to have in the physical experience. These emotional learning’s are best described as contracts or behavioural contracts. Another way of saying this is you are pre-programmed with behavioural habits or certain types of personality traits that are reflected from the soul’s barcode. These contracts that are programmed on a soul level manifest on the physical level activating DNA proteins into mental and emotional behavioural patterns. In essence these contracts are broadcast so that our DNA proteins “pick up” the signal and produce cells

with the patterns encoded in them. So every time we produce new cells they are programmed from DNA chromosomes holding the direct code from the soul, they are frequency specific to our life’s purpose. These physical, mental and emotional behavioural patterns directly determine our relationships with everything (people, animals, things, events, God and self). They are the primary reason we get sick or diseased, have toxic or destructive relationships, have negative experiences with money or property and live with self hatred issues – they are waiting to be mastered, resolved and evolved into wisdom; they are our unfinished business. Evolving the Soul’s code is our spiritual reason for living; it is our life’s purpose. These contracts that are written up on a soul level ensure that we have behavioural traits that will attract into our lives to facilitate life’s experience giving us an opportunity to evolve these contracts completing the “code expression” that we desire to experience/master – in essence fulfilling our life’s purpose or life’s mission. In other words we attract into our lives the experiences we unconscious-

ly desire to master and overcome and turn into wisdom. For some people cancer can lead then to a better life (as recently highlighted by the story of Melbourne Football Club president Jim Stynes). Evolving Mind is not a philosophy but a rare mental and emotional “process” that we apply to our life to “resolve and evolve” our negative contracts aligning ourself with our life’s purpose thus evolving our soul’s code. Evolving the soul’s code can happen many different ways from a near death experience to witnessing the birth of a new born baby, from attending a seminar to discovering something new about you and your life. All have a process through which evolution takes place and Evolving Mind made the discovery as to the “process” of this evolution and “how” it happens. It’s when our coping mechanism becomes stuck, it’s when we are in a rut that we need help and this is where the Evolving Mind can really help. “Using this process, that we teach you in just two days, you can evolve any negative contract that is stagnating your life, says Elise Barratt-Hassett from www.evolvingmind.com.au

Achieving your best through yoga does not mean big expense YOGA and the extra cellular matrix – surely that’s enough of a title to get readers interested. Extra Cellular Matrix sounds scientiﬁc enough to have evidence and sci ﬁ enough to offer escape and entertainment. In the West what often will sell needs to include fashion and evidence. It is also important that the product somehow increases your use by date and supports ageless ageing, is cost effective and yet

appears to have an elite status or sense of class. We all know yoga has class or classes (usually once a week) and the status comes from the fact that rock and ﬁlm stars, the Australian Ballet and gurus have yoga as part of their lifestyle. Yoga has always been a little bit fashionable – some years more than others. The amount of money you could spend on a yoga wardrobe, yoga gear and yoga retreats could

endanger your mortgage or credit card status. But the extra cellular matrix – now there’s a juicy term. It does have a medical deﬁnition which loosely translated is the goo that all your cells-that’s organs, muscular/skeletal structure-joints, spine, bones-our immune system-nervous system-including the brain-is suspended in and supported by. Prof Alfred Pischinger German medical practitioner, author and homeopathic researcher has tagged

Evolving the Soul

this the “ground substance” which is the home of regulation and feedback within the human biological system – in other words it is crucial in keeping our system balanced and healthy. The most important thing we can do to this extra cellular matrix to maintain our health and wellbeing, increase our use by date and remain agelessly ageing (remember you are as old or as young as your cells are) is to oxygenate and move this matrix.

That means exercise and breathing. Yoga achieves this in a balanced way and at a personal best level. It’s a team sport you can play for life – the team you are playing for is the human consciousness. Your escape is actually your centered awareness that grows with every step closer you take to the yoga life. It’s cost effective if you let it be and easy to transport and maintain. And what it looks like is pretty much up to you.

Health Naturally...

Helping to stave off colds and flu

Lymphatic congestion must be avoided MANY women experience lymphatic congestion from time to time, particularly in the left breast. Why? Since most of us are right handed and use our left arm less than our right arm, more stagnation of the lymphatics results on the left side. Interestingly, more breast cancers start in the left breast than the right! So while most of us get some degree of lymphatic congestion, it is nothing to worry about, however, we all should learn our sources of congestion, physical, emotional, and chemical, and how to manage them over time to reduce the risk of developing cancer. Imagine toxins and waste products piling up in the breast tissue, forming little junk yards. The body may encapsulate the junk yard, forming a mass or a cyst, or not. If this pollution persists over time – well, you get the point. It can contribute to cellular mutation and increase the risk for cancer down the road. The breast tissue contains an abundance of lymph vessels. Unlike other areas of the body, the breast lacks sources of external compression, such as muscles or strong overlying frontal part that promotes natural lymphatic drainage. As a result, ﬂuid has a tendency to stagnate, which may lead to breast problems. This is where gentle, non-stimulating massage techniques can be used to aid ﬂuid recirculation. Massage therapy is an effective non-invasive treatment for breasts, as they also require good circulation and tissue mobilisation for optimum health.

HUMAN flu pandemics result when a new influenza A virus emerges with the capacity to efficiently infect and spread between humans. Inhaled influenza virus attacks epithelial cells in the respiratory tract. The usual recommendation is to vaccinate against the flu. There are 200 viruses that can cause the common cold and there is no common preventative. Probably the best remedies available are herbal. The alternative may be to use natural remedies to build up immune response. Herbs such as echinacea root extract or astragalus are the most used with vitamins A and C and the mineral zinc all aid immune response. Native American Indians used echinacea angustifolia for a wide variety of problems including respiratory infections and snakebite. Herbal physicians among the European colonists quickly added the herb to their repertoire. Echinacea became tremendously popular toward the end of the 19th century. Echinacea was the No 1 cold and flu remedy in the US until it was displaced by sulfa antibiotics. Ironically, antibiotics are not effective against colds, while echinacea offers some real help. Echinacea remains the primary remedy for minor respiratory infections in Germany, where over 1.3 million prescriptions are issued each year. Many people don’t wait to be prescribed a dose of echinacea but quickly take a good dose at first sign of a cold or flu. The best scientific evidence about echinacea concerns its ability to help you recover from colds and minor flu

It is at times believed that there may be a correlation between chronic poor breast drainage and susceptibility to cancer. Massage techniques is one of the most effective ways for addressing such problems and promoting breast health. Another potential physical cause of lymphatic congestion in the breast tissue can be bras that apply too much compression over areas of lymphatics. If it only takes the pressure of a 10c coin against the skin to stimulate lymphatic flow, is it possible that excess pressure can stifle flow? Of course! Hence the need to choose bras with discernment. Consider having them professionally fitted. High-end stores like Myer and independent lingerie retailers have professionally trained/certified fitters. And consider going braless when you can. If you are a larger sized women who must wear a bra 24/7, consider the above, along with learning massage techniques to stimulate lymphatic flow - a healthy habit for all women, especially those with limited shoulder mobility sitting at computers every day. If you want to learn more consider attending a Better Breast Health 4 Life™ workshop.

ture illnesses. Although Chinese herbal tradition suggests that astragalus should generally be used in combination with other herbs, modern Chinese investigators have found various intriguing effects when astragalus is taken by itself. Extracts of astragalus have been found to stimulate parts of the immune system in mice and humans, and to increase the survival time of mice infected with various diseases. Other research suggests that astragalus might be useful in treating cancer, chronic active hepatitis or genital herpes and increase the efﬁcacy and/or reduce the side effects of cancer chemotherapy. For vitamin C the therapeutic dose is a more than daily orange juice. My recommendation is to take one or two grams of vitamin C and then an hour later, if you’re still sneezing, your nose is running or feel shivery, take another one or two grams of vitamin C. Keep doing this until symptoms subside as this will stop a cold in almost every person who follows the regimen. Most studies on vitamin C recommend no more than the recommended daily allowance of 60mg per day. Hay fever is a common problem in this area in spring, some call us the “Hayfever Capital” of Australia. These remedies that boost immune response can also help to lessen the overactive allergic reaction that is often caused by pollen and grasses. The homeopathic treatments are also very effective for symptom relief. If you need advice on your health see one of our naturopaths or your doctor.

The Olive Health Foods infections more quickly. Echinacea may also be able to “abort” a cold, if taken at the first sign of symptoms. Some herbalists recommend a lower maintenance dose throughout winter. It is believed that echinacea acts by stimulating the immune system. Animal studies have found that various constituents of echinacea can increase antibody production, raise white blood cell counts, and stimulate their activity. The best quality echinacea should tingle or “buzz” on the tongue. Astragalus is used when people have repeated viruses such as glandular fever, ross river fever and chronic fatigue syndrome. It has three major actions – immune stimulant, energy tonic and liver tonic. In the US, astragalus has been presented as useful for treating colds and flu. Many people have come to believe that they should take astragalus to prevent a cold and ecchinacea at the first sign of a cold. However, according to traditional Chinese medicine astragalus formulas should not be taken during infections. To do so is said to resemble “locking the chicken-coop with the fox inside,” causing the infection to be “driven deeper.” Rather, astragalus is more appropriate to use for preventing fu-

Safety first for Border firm

OUTSTANDING: Jacinta Macaulay, from Border Express, with the award which was presented at the National Safety Awards. Picture: PAT KOOPMAN

TRANSPORT company, Border Express, has featured prominently in the 10th annual National Safety Awards. Senior welfare officer, Jacinta Macaulay, was announced as the winner of the category for the outstanding contribution by an individual in rehabilitation and return to work. “Being acknowledged on the national stage is a real honour,” Jacinta said. “We have striven for best practice in regards to rehabilitation and return to work and have a great system in place to assist our injured employees return to their duties in a safe and durable manner.” Awarded by the Safety, Rehabilitation and Compensation Commission, the awards recognise and reward excellence in work health and safety, rehabilitation and returnto-work achieved by employers and employees within the Comcare scheme. Border Express was granted a self insurance licence in January 2008. It has its own self-insurance division to manage the compensation and health issues for its 750 employees.

MILESTONES: Staff members with Mercy Place and Mercy Health celebrate their service milestones. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON

Mercy workers celebrate dedication to health service By BLAIR THOMSON SEVERAL staff at Mercy Place and Mercy Health have celebrated long service milestones, including two staff who had been with Mercy for 30 years. Denise Ronan had originally planned to only spend a short time with Mercy in 1980. “It just came about when my mother-in-law, who was working at Mercy Health, asked me if I wanted a job there for three months relieving somebody because they had broken their ankle,” she said. “I’ve been there ever since …

they never actually said I could stay, but here I am,” she added with a laugh. “But it’s been very good … I love working with the staff and it’s been a very rewarding experience.” The long service certificates were presented to the staff on Mercy Day, which commemorates the opening of the first Mercy House by Catherine McAuley on September 24, 1827. Mercy Place Albury service manager Jarrod Hall said it was impressive that the two separate services both had staff dedicated to their jobs.

Aussie asparagus is clean, green and in season

NOW! GOSS WITH

BARB LOWERY

PRING has sprung and that means the Australian-grown asparagus season is now well and truly in full swing. Expect to enjoy this unique, versatile vegetable from now until March. Aussie-grown asparagus has earned an enviable global reputation. It’s esteemed in both domestic and export markets. Our major growing areas for asparagus are in Koo Wee Rup and Dalmore in Victoria (65km south-east of Melbourne) where over 93 per cent of Australia’s asparagus is produced. About 97 per cent of our asparagus comes from Victoria. Approximately 60 per cent of Australian-grown asparagus is sold fresh on the domestic market and 40 per cent is exported. Most of the asparagus sold is green asparagus, with a small amount of white and a very limited amount of exotic-looking purple asparagus (a hybrid) that’s popular for salads and available in November.

Imported asparagus is not a patch on Australian asparagus. These days consumers are savvy and check labels with country of origin as we’re keen to support our Aussie farmers. Also, it’s far better to anticipate the Australian asparagus season.

Asparagus facts

• Australian-grown asparagus is world-class quality, has more flavour and is more tender than imported asparagus. • It’s 100 per cent clean, green and safe to eat. • Annual per capita consumption of asparagus in Australia is surprisingly low. On average Australians only eat approximately 416g – about two bunches – so there is plenty of room for improvement. • This season the Australian asparagus export market looks to be a little difficult for growers due to a high Australian dollar and stiff competition from asparagus grown in countries like Peru and China, which have very low production costs • Asparagus contains vitamins A,C and E, folate and dietary fibre.

Asparagus is an everyday vegetable

As recently as the early 2000s Australians considered asparagus a “gourmet”

vegetable and a delicacy to be eaten on special occasions. Now, supplies are generous and we are eating it as an everyday vegetable. Asparagus is very versatile, as it can be used in canapés, soups, entrees, salads, mains and quick snacks.

Asparagus parmesan – a 5 minute entrée! Throw asparagus spears into a wide pan of boiling water and simmer until crisptender. Test a spear by inserting the point of a sharp knife. Drain and arrange on hot plates. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil or melted butter. Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Top with shavings of top quality parmesan cheese. (I also like to scatter strips of prosciutto over asparagus before topping with parmesan) … it’s so easy To stir-fry: cut spears into 2cm diagonal pieces. Heat a wok and add peanut or vegetable oil. Add asparagus, finely sliced mushrooms, garlic, fresh ginger and shallots. Stir-fry for two minutes, or until crisptender. Add a splash of oyster sauce and a little water and toss until asparagus is slightly glazed.

To barbecue, grill or roast: drizzle asparagus spears with olive oil (add crushed garlic if you like). Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Barbecue, grill or roast at 200C, turning occasionally until asparagus browns slightly and is crisptender. To microwave: put one bunch of green asparagus in a clean plastic freezer bag. Add 2-3 teaspoons olive oil and ground pepper. Tie the bag very loosely. Microwave on high for two minutes or until asparagus is just tender. To serve, cut bag open onto a plate, taking care as the bag will release steam when opened. Sprinkle with sea salt. To serve asparagus cold for salads: cook until crisp-tender and drain. Then “refresh” by plunging spears into iced water for two minutes only. Drain again and pat dry on paper towels. If necessary, prepare one day ahead, cover and refrigerate.

All photos are “Large flowered hybrid Clematis” Gardening GURU

WITH

ROBYN GIBBS

Photos courtesy Alameda Homestead Nurseries

HERE are some plants that should be grown simply for sheer indulgence and dare devilment. High on my list of candidates for moments of reckless decision are the Peonies, whether of the herbaceous (dying down each year) or the tree (maintaining a framework of stems in winter after all foliage has dropped) variety. Peonies are the Dolly Partons of the flower world – truly voluptuous, and to be rewarded with magnificent flowers on a plant that, particularly if it was of the tree form, may have cost rather more than the average Geranium, is cause for utter joy. Even one flower in the first spring will banish any lingering guilt for extravagant or impulsive purchasing. The “Queen of the climbers”, the Clematis, is my other choice for a piece-deresistance feature. Even one large flowered specimen will sweep an ordinary garden into the dizzy heights of splendid luxury, giving the gardener so much pleasure as well as just cause for self-congratulation. The Clematis genus is enormous and includes over 200 species and well over 1000 cultivars. Bush walkers will be familiar with the aristata, the evergreen native Clematis

with its small white star flowers followed by clusters of seed fluff. “Apple Blossom” and “Snow Flake” are two varieties of the evergreen Clematis armandii. For a month this vigorous climber covers completely in flowers the size of 20c pieces and of course makes an outstanding, very pretty, show. The montanas, with many small white or pink flowers, are vigorous deciduous creepers, flowering in spring. For grandstanding though, it is the large flowered hybrids that are the complete showoffs. In the not too distant past, these prima donnas did have a bit of a reputation for being fussy but no longer. A couple of tried and true measures can have even the most fearful of gardeners achieving success and the consequence of that, of course, is a niggling desire to indulge further. There is great scope for much indulgence with the large flowered hybrid Clematis too. Many varieties achieve flowers the size of a bread and butter plate and the colour range is extensive. With every shade of blue, mauve, pink, crimson-red, white and all manner of combinations, and with some double varieties on offer too, it is a problem to nar-

row down the choice. If you are even remotely interested in viewing a full range of Clematis in flower, go to the website for Alameda Homestead Nursery. David and Judy Button are wholesale growers of Clematis at Berwick and supply local nurseries with their beautiful quality plants. Varying in height from 1-3m, and occasionally 4m, Clematis can be planted in a large tub or in the garden. Grow them up fences or verandah posts enclosed in mesh, inside an obelisk, up and over garden arches and pergolas and even up through climbing roses. Wherever a Clematis is planted, make sure it has a cool root run (achieve this with ground-cover planting or thick mulch) and if possible, shelter from the hot northerly winds. I take my cue on planting and pruning my Clematis from the very down to earth book “Growing Clematis” by Bridget Gubbins, who used to grow these plants for her own pleasure and for commercial purposes, near Tumbarumba. Brigit advises planting the lowest set of growth nodes on the large flowered hybrid plants below the soil to encourage multiple shoots rather than a single stem, and tickling

only the bottom couple of centimetres of the root ball. Although some experts advise tracing back the ancestry of each Clematis in order to ascertain the exact timing for pruning, Brigit says she has never followed that advice, instead pruning all large flowered varieties down to the second bottom pair of healthy buds every winter. After the spring flowering, she trims each climber back by a third to bring on another flower flush. In August as the buds are swelling, a handful of a good complete fertiliser is beneficial with another feed at Christmas and late February. They enjoy potash too, so spread ashes from the open fire if you have one. For some serious titillation, check the Clematis in your local nursery right now or view the online offerings from Alameda Homestead that may be ordered at your nursery. Of the readily available good performers, Elsa Spath has 15-17cm diameter flowers in a rich, dark blue, Niobe is velvet ruby red, Dr Ruppel has royal pink flowers with a carmine centre bar, Ernest Markham is rich petunia red and Jackmanii Superba is a stunner with dark velvety purple flowers. But the possibilities are endless ...

Wine and health – Just how much can you get away with?

Winelovers PERSPECTIVE WITH

PAUL MUNTZ

INE is wonderful stuff! A good reason why it tastes like mother’s milk is the presence of alcohol in the brew. At the end of a long stressful day, it is hard to beat a G+T, or a soothing glass of wine. Quite frankly, coming home to a sparkling mineral water just doesn’t cut the mustard. And don’t overlook the therapeutic benefits – historically, wine was used in preference to water in past centuries simply because the alcohol and natural acid killed off all the “bugs”. (It must have been interesting to see the kiddies weave their way to school after a bowl of cornflakes and a glass of red for brekkie). Unbelievably, until the 1960s alcohol was actually available in British hospitals on the National Health Service! Try getting Medicare to pony up for a bottle of Grange – I don’t think so!

So how does wine help? The answer is – in lots of ways, including: • Boosting HDL (the “good” cholesterol) – which helps clean out all those fatty deposits from the arteries. • Reducing LDL (the “bad” cholesterol) that put the “nasties” there to start with. • It’s full of antioxidants. • It’s said to reduce the risk of some cancers and to help with mental acuity as we get older. • It relieves stress (Duhhh!). By the way, have you ever heard of a winemaker dying young? They mostly seem to live to a ripe old age (although the odd one has died prematurely through accident). And there is always the “French Paradox” – the Froggies seem to be able to consume cheese, butter and cream by the bucket full without corresponding high levels of heart disease. How do they do it? – mostly by washing down those naughty things with plenty of red wine.

So is all the news good? • • • • • • • •

Nope! Excess drinking leads to: Alcohol dependency. Accidents. Liver damage. Dementia. Cancer of the mouth. Strokes. High blood pressure. Increased infertility (undoubtedly brought on by “brewer’s droop” ...).

So what is the answer? Well, I think it’s pretty clear – excessive alcohol is bad news. Moderate drinking is good news, (and in fact the experts seem to think it is better for you than total abstinence).

So how much is “enough”? Until recently, it was pretty much settled

law that two to three glasses a day for men and one to two for women (unfortunately, a women’s body tissue is more prone to alcohol related damage) was regarded as “moderate”. Then, some peanut masquerading as a Frenchman halved these quantities in some obscure study, declaring that anything above one glass a day would put you at death’s door (well, he didn’t quite say that but certainly that was the tenor of the article) – needless to say I assiduously ignored these as ravings of a lunatic, and continued with the good old comfortable two or three glasses a day rule which, with two exceptions, I have maintained assiduously for nearly 40 years. But remember, each glass is around 100ml of wine – no cheating by filling up to the brim!

Where to from here? My personal view is to avoid the periods of bingeing and abstinence that seems to be the mantra for many of my friends. That is, they have several unhappy nights when mineral water is the order of the evening, and then “get stuck into it” as a personal reward. A much better bet is to keep quantities moderate (that is, the three/two glass limit), but don’t panic if it is a daily event. Remember it is not just the warm calming feeling of alcohol coursing through your veins. The ceremony of drawing the cork, pouring and thinking about the wine, not to mention dinner conversation with your loved one, simply cannot be doing you harm. I am a pretty relaxed sort of guy at the best of times, but there is nothing like a sip of

the grape to elevate you to a slightly more ethereal plane. But a word of warning about the odd occasion circumstances that these limits are exceeded. Remember that you cannot defy alcohol gravity – the more alcohol you drink, the worse you are going to feel. Drink heaps of water with the wine (even if it means lots of “potty stops”), and don’t forget those couple of aspirin before you hit the sack. The headache is lurking there when you go to bed – you just don’t feel it. Jancis Robinson, the famous wine writer, also swears by a dose of Milk Thistle (a natural liver supplement) before she heads out to a tasting – I have tried it and it works a treat!

Aussie asparagus is the best From page 16

Pasta primavera (Serves 4-5)

Return to the pan, cover and keep hot. Meanwhile in a separate pan, cook the vegetables in boiling water until crisp-tender and drain well. Place the cream in a pan and bring to the boil. Stir in the parmesan, add the hot vegetables and immediately pour onto the hot pasta. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, toss gently and serve immediately.

Drizzle with extra olive oil and lemon juice and serve.

For this dish it’s Chardonnay time! Look for a lightly wooded version from the Yarra Valley or Margaret River (WA) The ABC (Anything But Chardonnay) drinkers could settle for a SSB (Semillon Sauvignon Blanc from Western Australia).

Paul’s wine pick Gremolata sounds rich but it is actually quite light and tangy.

Paul’s wine pick Richer flavours mean we have to “ramp up” the weight of our white. To keep the theme look at an Arneis from Italy (or from the King Valley just down the road from Albury Wodonga). Or look for a Savignan – also from the King Valley.

Asparagus and prawn gremolata

This classic Italian dish is always made in spring, hence the name. Traditionally made with spaghetti, I’ve opted for farfelle, those cheeky little bow ties • 500 g farfelle eg Barilla • 12 green beans, cut into 2cm pieces • 1 cup fresh broad beans • 6-8 asparagus spears, cut into 2cm pieces • 200 g sugar snap peas • ½ cup fresh peas • 1 cup pouring cream • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese • salt and freshly ground black pepper Cook pasta in lightly salted boiling water until al dente and drain well.

(Serves 4-5 as entrée) Gremolata is a zesty, fragrant and versatile mixture. It’s served over Osso Buco, but I also serve it with prawns, salmon, chicken and asparagus. • 2 tblspns chopped flat leaf parsley • 1-2 cloves garlic, finely chopped • 1 tblspn finely chopped lemon zest • 1 tblspn extra virgin olive oil • 500g raw prawns • 2 bunches asparagus, trimmed • 2 tblspns olive oil, extra • 2 tblspns lemon juice Chop parsley, garlic and lemon zest separately. Combine in a small bowl. Peel prawns and de-vein, but leave tails on. Cook asparagus in lightly salted boiling water for a few minutes, until crisp-tender. Place in a serving dish, cover and keep warm. Heat oil in a pan, add the prawns and stir-fry until just cooked. Arrange prawns over asparagus and spoon gremolata over.

WAR: Kate Dethridge with a display at the new A is for Animals Exhibition at Albury LibraryMuseum, which covers a wide range of animals during war. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON

War dogs and other pets By BLAIR THOMSON THE latest exhibition at Albury LibraryMuseum highlights an often weird and wacky A to Z of animals at war. The exhibits range from kangaroos which were smuggled over by soldiers to war ornaments made from ostrich feathers. The A is for Animals exhibition assistant curator, Kate Dethridge, said there was an interesting history of animals during war. “Soldiers used to smuggle all sorts of animals overseas,” she said. “We think of dogs, but people used to also smuggle cats, monkeys ... we’ve got kangaroos and a whole range of different animals at this exhibition.

“It’s about animals in war and the animals that have accompanied Australians overseas into service and battle.” The photos and physical items cover the Boer War through to modern-day battles in Iraq and Afghanistan. Not only are helpful animals, like carrier pigeons and tracker dogs looked at, the less desirable pests are also covered. “We also look at animals which threatened troops, like rats and insects which made life hard for those in the trenches,” Ms Dethridge said. The exhibition, from the Australian War Memorial in Canberra, ends on Sunday, November 14.

Team effort key to success

TEAM: Wodonga Real Estate Best Agents sales team (back, left to right): Amanda Kotzur, Clinton Harvey, Alan Hodgson and Des Lonergan. Front: Margy Meehan and Heidi Bourke.

By PAT KOOPMAN WODONGA Real Estate Best Agents has been an integral part of Wodonga’s residential landscape for two decades. During this time it has forged a reputation as being a leader in its ﬁeld. The real estate business has grown dramatically since starting operations with an initial team of ﬁve staff members, which has since expanded to 26 as the business has continued to thrive. Alan and Vicki Hodgson brought a 50 per cent share of Wodonga Real Estate in 1990, where Vicki was working in reception and accounts. Soon after, when Alan wound up his business interests in farming and property, they took 100 per cent of the business and Wodonga Real Estate Best Agents was born.

Property Goss THE drawn AFL grand final and the replay this weekend is going to play havoc with local real estate agents and open home inspections. No doubt the NSW Labour Day holiday on Monday was also going to mean a slow weekend but the grand finals, AFL Saturday and the NFL on Sunday, will definitely take the heat off visits to open homes. So if you want an opportunity to really spend some time over an inspection and have the full attention of the agent then this weekend will be a good time.

Dean St icons to go under hammer TWO of Albury’s iconic corner sites are up for auction in the next few weeks. The Mates Building on the corner of Dean and Kiewa Streets will be auctioned by L J Colquhoun Dixon on October 8 and the old ANZ building on the corner of Dean and Olive Streets is to be auctioned by Chapman Gould and May on October 15. Both buildings have played a major role in the development of the Dean Street retail and business precinct. The Mates Building was purchased in

There’s finally smiles in the bush HAVING just made a trip along the river to Mildura and back it is great to see the country looking so prosperous and lush. More importantly the farmers all along the river are smiling, albeit with some nervousness. The power of rain! Of course if you ever wanted to get into the rural scene then this may be just the time. If you are willing to accept that the 10-12 year drought may be over, then a lifestyle or commercial investment in a rural property could make sense. The stars of rain and good commodity prices are lining up and there are plenty of battered and bruised sellers looking at getting out. Have a talk to Brian Unthank, one of the Border’s most experienced rural land salesmen – he will point you in the right direction.

Every home is a castle in their eyes WHETHER you are a first-time home builder or your financial future is secure and you want to build your dream home, Alatalo Bros are certain they can meet your needs. Alatalos have been a major player in the Border housing market for 30 years, and there are literally thousands of Border residents living in an Alatalo Home. Company sales manager Tony Moyle says the company is geared to provide for any segment of the market. For first home builders the company can ensure you get the best value for your dollar. And by also having their own housing estates, Alatalo Bros are able to offer very attractive discounts for those choosing house and land packages. At the top of the market they are experienced in all the needs of the computer-savvy client who wants the latest in electronic gadgetry in their home. With more people wanting to be able to be in touch with their home from laptop or mobile phone, the latest trends including electronic systems such as C-Bus which control lighting and other electrical services including heaters, audio visual devices, pool pumps, sprinklers, blinds and more can be incorporated into your Alatalo home. All levels of security systems can also be built into your home. And, according to Mr Moyle they can do things like control the lights in your home while you are away so that anybody passing by would think the house is occupied. “You can have a system that turns on the kitchen lights in the morning, lights up the family room in the evening and even switches on the bedroom lights for 10 minutes just as you would do when you are going to bed,” Mr Moyle said. When you build with Alatalo it is not just a matter of taking one of their designs. “We will talk to people and see what they want. “They can even come to us with a sketch of their preferred floor plan and we will design a home for them from it.” This was the case with a magnificent new home being built by the Alatalo team for Mark and Viv Felmingham in Wodonga’s Felltimber Estate. “We went through a range of meetings and discussions to get what they wanted,” Mr Moyle said.

MAGNIFICENT: The latest Alatalo masterpiece under construction in the Felltimber Estate.

LATEST: Tony Moyle with one of the two hydronic heating control stations. The room is also the hub of the wiring for the C-Bus electronic system. “We drew plans, amended them and amended them again to come up with the final design.” The result is a sensational family home featuring five bedrooms all with en-suites, family and living rooms and study, home theatre and a host of features most of us would only dream about. The C-Bus system will enable the family to keep in touch with home from afar. An in-floor hydronic heating system powered by a gas-fired boiler allows the floors in each room to be heated independently, meaning energy will not be wasted. An in-ground swimming pool will be adjacent to the under cover outdoor entertainment area that features a vaulted ceiling under the main roof. While this home is probably out of the reach of most people, it is a good example of the extra distance Alatalo Bros will go to make sure every customer is satisfied with their Alatalo home.

Where city living meets country lifestyle

A LOCAL company using local trades and suppliers is the catch-cry of the Alatalo business. Tony Moyle says that anyone building with Alatalo can be sure their money is supporting the local economy. Reece is the supplier of all plumbing supplies, Flair Cabinets provide the latest in kitchens and cabinets, including St George appliances, and local tradesmen do all the work. “It is very important to us that we are part of this community and play our part in supporting local business,” Mr Moyle said. Alatalo Bros have about 50 homes under construction on the Border. They also have a building arm in Wagga and have recently undertaken work in Shepparton. Alatalo Bros have blocks available in the following 11 Border estates. Wodonga: Country Club, Wattle Glenn, Wattle Views, Whenby Grange, Riverview, Baranduda, Western Park, Felltimber. Albury: Mungabareena Park, Hamilton Valley, Fairway Gardens.

ALBURY Wodonga Cycling Club commenced its spring racing with the Wilson Transformer 51km handicap road race. Setting off from Wodonga in ideal conditions the three limit riders, Jodi Uphill, Terry Halpin and John Forke worked well together to try to hold off the main chase group. The main group had a 12minute gap to catch the front riders and with Brendan Washington leading the scratch chase group faced a big challenge. By the half-way mark one of the front riders had retired leaving just the two to work together. With a strong first half Halpin and Uphill still held a seven minute lead and were well placed to lead the race to the finish. Despite a strong effort the scratch group was unable to make much of an impression on the lead riders and approaching the finish Uphill pulled away from Halpin to take the win with Justin King sprinting home to third place. With around 3km to go Washington broke away from the scratch group but was soon run down by Paul Ingwersen and James Rendall. With 1km to go Ingwersen staged a breakaway attempt only to be passed on the line by Washington who took out the fastest time for the race. HEAT two of the Albury Wodonga Yacht Club’s Commodore Trophy and championship series took place last weekend on an ever-filling Lake Hume. Despite the excellent conditions provided by the rising water levels competitors again faced light wind conditions forcing many boats to retire. Donald Thomson made the best of it in the Commodore Trophy skippering Impressions across the line in front of Terry Caldwell’s Pisces with Mark Harris bringing Mondial home in third. For the trailable yacht championship series Peter Kalin finished first on Plane Sailing with Phil Clements bringing Rum Runner home in second followed

by Caldwell while Thomson was on his own in the Off-The-Beach boats section. Placings were the same for the handicap series. This weekend sees the first of the ladies helm races and hopefully a little more breeze to provide more action. WODONGA Rifle Club will have three members in the Victorian F class target shooting team this year. Grant Groves, who is the F class champion of the Wodonga club, will captain the team. Susie Ryan will be team manager and a third Wodonga shooter, Ken Melgaard, will be a shooting member. Bruce Kneebone of Wangaratta is also a member of the team, reflecting the strength of the North East in long range shooting. The team will compete against all other states at the national championships in Canberra on November 14 and 15. The first competition will be a 15-shot match at 800m on Sunday, November 14. On Monday the teams will fire 10-shot matches at 300m, 500m, 700m and 800m, with the winner of this competition being crowned national champion. Victoria is the reigning titleholder. MELBOURNE Heart FC will bring elite football to the Border when Albury Wodonga stages the 2010 leg of the Drake Football Series on October 8. A series of clinics will be set up with assistant coach Ante Milicic and Socceroos, Jason Hoffman and Eli Babalj. A “Coach the Coach” workshop will be a highlight of the visit with Milicic providing junior coaches an insight into the technical and tactical innovations of the A-League’s newest club. Included will be a freestyle competition at QEII Square with competitors required to express themselves through their inventive use of the round ball. “At Melbourne Heart FC we believe that it is incumbent upon us as a club to help spread the word of football and grow the game at a grassroots level,” Heart chief Scott Munn said. “This commitment has been evident in the reach of our extensive community program which has seen the club conduct clinics for nearly 7000 juniors.”

At 17, Zach aiming for a national title By TREVOR JACKSON ANOTHER Border youngster is making his mark in motor racing, this time in the open wheel Formula Vee 1200cc category. Seventeen-year-old rookie driver, Zach Jones, has continued his impressive introduction to the sport with a clean sweep in round four of the Victorian Circuit Racing Championships at Phillip Island on the weekend. Beginning on Saturday morning with a pole position Zach went on to dominate the race, winning by a margin of seven seconds after eight laps, a great effort given the controls in place for the category. Sunday proved more of a challenge with a bad start relegating him to fourth place and a safety car being called out on the ﬁrst lap. Racing returned to full pace and Zach found himself in second position on lap three, the lead car then holding a 100m gap, quite a large margin in Formula Vee racing. With the controlled category brave driving was required to close the gap and Zach began braking late and getting on the power early to make up the time. On lap ﬁve he regained the lead with a bold move up into Lukey Heights and maintained the position from there, taking the win by just half a car length. After a solid start in race three and consistently strong laps throughout Zach took the win by almost 15 seconds. On the back of his performance Zach has received some great feedback with two teams approaching him regarding his racing for next season which may well give him the opportunity of a team drive. Having begun racing in the category in March this year, completing just four rounds, it’s an even more impressive result. Starting out in karts in Echuca at the age of eight, Zach soon developed a passion for the sport. Moving back to the Border he continued his racing and eventually decided to step up to Formula Vee. “I had to step up to seniors in karts anyway,” Zach said. “There wasn’t much of a price difference to race Formula Vee so we decided to give that a try to see how we’d go. “It was hard at the start just getting out of

Zach is making his mark in the national competition this year. a kart into a car but I’ve found it much better in the last few months with a lot of testing … it’s gone really well.” Zach faces the Australian titles in Mallala at the end of October and is hoping to come home with a placing in the event. “As a rookie driver it will be a massive event,” he said. “I’m a little bit nervous but some of the people that came to Phillip Island on the

weekend will be there so it gives me a bit of a boost to know I can beat some of them.” A placing at the Australian titles could well boost Zach’s chances in coming seasons and with the way he’s been driving anything is possible. “I’ve had a fair bit of conﬁdence in the car lately,” he said. “The way I’ve been driving in the last few rounds has been really good.”

From back page “People said ‘I’d play if you did a golf day’, so we thought we’d go with that. “The money we raise is staying in Albury and I think people are happy to donate when they know the money is staying in Albury.” The equipment to be purchased with the funds raised, worth around $3800, is basically a training aid for nurses to give them more hands-on experience accessing ports on children being treated. The port is used for the treatment of cancer and an inexperienced nurse can take longer to administer the treatment than necessary, simply due to a lack of experience. “The nurses have been fantastic but if it’s their first time accessing the port it can be a long process which can be distressing,” Ms Sanders said. “You just want it over and done with quickly,” Mrs Kernaghan said. Mrs Kernaghan said the golf day was a good opportunity for corporate sponsors to network and local businesses could sponsor holes for $100. “The ANZ have been good,” she said. “They saw it on our Facebook page and approached us to see if they could help.” She added that there would be prizes on offer for those involved with nearest the pin and hopefully a raffle for a large item that is yet to be confirmed. Mrs Kernaghan said anyone interested in the golf day could contact them by email at flutterbyfoundation@hotmail. com The golf day consists of an 18-hole four ball Ambrose team competition and places are filling fast so be sure to get your name in soon to ensure a place in this very worthwhile day.

Drive earns Matt invite to join top team

SPEED: Matt Chahda leading the Tony Kart in Sunday’s final.

By TREVOR JACKSON BORDER racing driver, Matt Chahda, continues to make a big impression in the motorsport world with his top performances on the karting scene. At just 17 years of age he has been offered a drive with the Tony Kart racing team, one of the top karting teams in the country, in a four-hour enduro race. The event takes place in December at the Todd Road kart track in Melbourne, an undulating track that Matt enjoys racing on. Being an invite-only event it is a huge achievement from the Albury youngster. On the weekend Matt competed in the Albury Wodonga Kart Club’s club chamionship series and managed to beat the Tony Kart driver he will possibly be teamed with in the enduro. This was a great effort given the fact that Matt was using an older Arrow chassis, his usual chassis having been bent and the kart rebuilt for the weekend’s event. “For Matt to come out and beat him was a pretty big thing,” said team owner and father, Amin Chahda. Matt’s move to overtake the Tony Kart and take the lead in the ﬁnal of the round was nothing short of bril-

liant, braking late into the corner but still managing to hold his position, showing he has both the speed and the ability to mix it with the best. “He’s not a dirty racer, he won’t take people out,” Amin said. “He’d rather sit there and wait for his opportunities. “I think what’s impressed the Tony Kart team is his smoothness and clean racing.” The enduro in Melbourne will be a big test for Matt with 32 of the top Australian karts taking part. Having been involved in the sport for most of his life Amin said it was very satisfying to see the progress Matt has made in just two short years in the sport. “We didn’t even think about Matt racing in the past,” he said. “About three years ago he started asking for a drive in one of our karts … I was busy racing myself but in the end we gave him a drive. “I didn’t think he was that interested in motorsport but looking through some old photos with his brother in his racing suit I noticed Matt at about six years old sitting in the kart in the background. “He did a half a dozen laps in his first try and showed some promise. “In his first race he started last and finished third or fourth out of 15 karts.

“It’s sort of progressed from there. “It’s come natural to him … it’s not something he’s had to be taught.” Amin said it was a huge opportunity for his son to mix it with the best in the karting scene. Some of the big names in motorsport have been, or are still, involved in the kart scene including drivers currently competing in the Australian V8 development series. Well known motorsport identities such as James Courtney have suggested keeping Matt in karting for another 12 months. “James was a big kart racer before going overseas and then coming back and racing V8s,” Amin said. “He thinks keeping Matt in karts for another year will teach him the race craft he needs and then he should be ready to step up to tin tops. “When you out-qualify people like Shane Price, who’s a V8 Supercar driver, you know you’re going pretty good and Matt’s beaten him.” With Amin himself owning a V8 Falcon touring car the opportunity is there for Matt to take advantage and get a foothold in the sport. Either way the young Border racer seems to be on the right track to take his passion to the next level in the future.

Border iron men to cross the Nullarbor ORIGINAL: This Ariel Fieldmaster was more than up to the task ahead.

Classics star on show, and on road By TREVOR JACKSON CLASSIC motor cycle fans using the Lincoln Causeway could not help but notice the line up of motor bikes at the Three Monkeys Tavern. The occasion was the Albury Wodonga Classic and Enthusiasts Motorcycle Club weekly ride. As well as enjoying the ride those attending were able to end the day with a wood ﬁred pizza. Machines taking part ranged from early model Triumph and Harley Davidsons to Yamahas and Ariels. Many hours of mechanical work had obviously gone into several of the bikes with others basically in typical condition for their age. Although some may not have appeared as fastidiously rebuilt as others they had all received more than their fair share of TLC, not necessarily all show, but certainly all go! A late model Harley Sportster sat proudly next to one from the 1960s, the latter showing the ravages of time, but still providing more than enough pleasure for its proud owner. Nortons and Moto Guzzis shared the carpark with an 1950s era Ariel Fieldmaster that looked as if it had been pulled out of the shed, dusted off and readied for the pilgrimage. An immaculate vintage Harley sported a tank mounted gear shift and foot clutch set up, as it was back in the day, and a price tag not really discussed in depth. With many of the models of motorcycle participating becoming ever more rare it was great to see them being used as they were intended originally, as a form of transport, not just something to hide in the shed, never to see the light of day. The club welcomes enquiries from all motorcycle enthusiasts regardless of age or model of bike. Members are currently gearing up for the annual Butterball Rally which is taking place on October 9-10. Those interested in participating in this great event need to have entries submitted by this Sunday, October 3. No late entries will be accepted. For all enquiries ring Roger on 0408 431 582.

By TREVOR JACKSON THE sport of iron man burst into most households in the early 1980s via the efforts of Grant Kenny. Since then it has grown steadily in Australia to the point where now it’s hard for competitors to gain entry to any of the popular events. One of the major events on the Australian calendar is the Busselton Iron Man in Western Australia on December 5. Ten competitors from the Albury Wodonga Triathlon Club will be heading across the Nullarbor to participate in the race and are currently in week seven of a 16-week intensive training program. Nine of the competitors are ﬁrst-timers, including club media spokesman, Peter Hudec. An iron man event can take more than 10 hours to complete and pushes the body to the limit, requiring anything up to 18 hours per week of disciplined training. Mr Hudec said the iron man event was the pinnacle of endurance racing. “A lot of people like the triathlons because it involves the three disciplines, swimming, bike and running,” he said. “It’s rare to have each discipline at the top level. “That’s what’s very appealing … it’s not just pounding the pavement all day long.” Such an event may provide some form of variety but the work required to participate is nothing short of extreme. Four blocks of four week training sessions are set down to condition the body,

starting small and building up before tapering off leading up to the event. This includes block sessions where you might ride the bike for ﬁve hours then get off and run for a further 2½ hours … and that’s just the training! Full time employment adds yet another dimension to the workload and the performance by Tony Abbott at the Port Macquarie iron man event cannot be underestimated. “Tony Abbott said he trained about 10 hours a week,” Mr Hudec said. “He came in under 13 hours which was a good effort.”

By TREVOR JACKSON FUTSAL is beginning to make its mark on the Border with a healthy competition growing for senior players in the region. Juniors are also being catered for with the new summer competition beginning at the PCYC indoor court in Albury. Games are run on Mondays and Wednesdays and are proving to be quite popular for those who play outdoor soccer during the winter months. Organiser Jacqui Finlay said more teams were being sought with openings for juniors who hadn’t played soccer in the past but had an interest in the game. “This is our second season and the kids are really enjoying it so far,” Ms Finlay said. “They are wanting to continue with soccer during the summer to keep up their skills and ﬁtness. “The winter soccer competition is ﬁnished now but with futsal they can learn more skills because it’s faster than outdoor soccer. “We’re looking to get new kids in that want to play outdoor soccer but aren’t real sure about it. “We’d like them to come down and have a look, have a try to see what they think and introduce soccer to all kids. “We can take whole teams or place individuals into teams.” Ms Finlay said futsal was a good starting point for those interested in the sport of soccer, giving them the speed and skill they needed to take their game to the bigger outdoor venues.

She said one of the biggest hurdles that faced the sport in the region was the lack of knowledge about the game by the general sporting community. “Although we are into our second season it is still very new in the area,” Ms Finlay said. “People don’t know much about the sport

or that we have an organised competition. “It is huge in all the cities with state titles just like outdoor soccer. “It is a real sport with a real ball, it is here and we are staying.” Anyone interested in the sport can contact the PCYC direct or phone Ms Finlay on 0422 140 998.

You can only imagine the times of the day he utilised to prepare for the event, the average competitor requiring an inventive approach to their training regime. “I recently had a friend who needed their cat fed,” Mr Hudec said. “I ran from Lavington over to Birallee and then ran back after doing the job. “You integrate the training into your schedule.” But there’s still more to it than just the physical training. Mr Hudec said an iron man event was mind over matter. “You ﬁnish 180km on the bike then have to get off and run a marathon,” he said. He said the nutrition was a huge part of the program with different people taking different approaches to their needs from eating sandwiches or pizzas on the run or bike legs. At 41 years of age Mr Hudec might seem a little old for this type of event but he said the most popular age group for such events was from 36 to 45. “It takes a long time to get adjusted to endurance events of this stature,” he said. “If you look at the entry lists you ﬁnd hardly anyone under 25 … they’re just not built for it.” To compete in such an event competitors need a real goal and for most it’s not winning, it’s simply competing or improving their previous time. “Most of the competitors race against the clock,” Mr Hudec said. “It’s a lot of work, but if you discipline yourself you reap the rewards later.”

Family golf day is taking off

GIVING BACK: Tanya Sanders and Larissa Kernaghan raising funds to help the community.

By TREVOR JACKSON CHARITY and sport on the Border seem to go hand in hand and the latest fundraising effort from the Flutterby Foundation is no different. The foundation is hosting a golf day at the SS&A golf club in Wodonga on November 5 to raise funds for equipment at the Albury Base Hospital children’s ward to aid in the treatment of cancer. The Flutterby Foundation was originally formed by two Border residents who both had children diagnosed with cancer. Tanya Sanders and Larissa Kernaghan were both faced with the prospect of battling the disease and after the support of the community decided to give something back. “The community really rallied and supported us,” Ms Sanders said. “We thought of what we could

do to give back … we are both from families where we feel it’s important to give back. “We know what it’s like to battle such a huge thing and thought we were in that unique position where we could raise money and raise awareness for the other families in the area who are ﬁghting such a terrible disease.” Initially the thought of starting a foundation wasn’t something they’d planned. Their original plan was to hold a movie night and raise a bit of money which, went so well they decided to keep it going. “It’s kind of just taken off from there,” Ms Sanders said. The golf day also came about not by an initial plan but more by word of mouth. “I started talking to a few people that play golf and it started to snowball,” Ms Sanders said. Continued page 42
