Bandiana clearing house for 12,000 defence vehicles

By BLAIR THOMSON THE Australian Defence Force will sell off 12,000 army vehicles and trailers over the next nine years, many of which are located at the Bandiana barracks. The barracks, which act as the army’s warehouse, have possession of many the Land Rovers, Unimogs, trucks and truck mounted cranes that will be sold. The barracks will modify the trucks to make them ready for sale with the army asking for organisa-

win

tions to purchase the vehicles in bulk. The sale is part of the biggest disposal of military equipment since World War II. Defence Materiel Minister Jason Clare said in June the ADF would replace or upgrade up to 85 per cent of it’s equipment over the next 15 years with up to 24 ships, 70 combat aircraft, 110 other aircraft, 120 helicopters and 600 armoured vehicles also to be sold off. A Request for Proposal for the

disposal of the 12,000 surplus army vehicles was announced last week, with some of the funds to possibly be invested in training simulators. The aim of the sale is to reduce costs and generate potential revenue for the defence force. “By disposing of this equipment in bulk, it will increase the amount of revenue Defence can raise and reinvest in new equipment,” Mr Clare said. “The money raised from the sale of these vehicles will be invest-

ed in Force 2030, with one option to fund simulators used for training that will reduce the wear and tear on Army vehicles.” Some of the equipment, which will include a range of communications systems, weapons and explosives ordnance, could end up at the Bandiana Army Museum. “A number of vehicles will be reserved and offered exclusively to community and heritage organisations, including the Australian War Memorial, RSL’s and other histori-

cal organisations,” Mr Clare said. The vehicles were acquired by the army in the 1970s and 80s, with the aging fleet to be upgraded to modern stock. Staff at the Bandiana barracks are still in the process of decommissioning some of the 29 Leopard tanks, which will be displayed at RSL clubs around the country, for delivery. Many have already been gifted to clubs, with Rutherglen RSL recently taking possession of one.

YOU COULD WIN...

IT is a task that should never have to be carried out. But on Sunday a dedicated group will replant the rose garden established at Belvoir Park in tribute to those who have won, and lost, the terrible fight against cancer. The garden was a tribute to all the individuals and families who have battled this most unforgiving of diseases. Unfortunately the sentiment of the planting meant nothing to the low-lives who attacked the garden, destroying everything that had been planted with love. On Sunday the volunteers will set out to once again establish the garden. And to its credit Wodonga council will light the area and maintain it, replacing any plants that for any reason are destroyed. Why cameras cannot yet be installed is anyone’s guess, unless like Albury and the Dean Street crossing lights, someone is waiting for them to come by a slow boat from China. The Brave Hearts organisation deserves the support of every Border resident in its work to take some of burden from families and individuals battling cancer. And it deserves every one of us to ensure the replanted garden is not desecrated again. If part of that support is coming forward and sharing any knowledge that might be held about the first attack so be it. Those responsible should be held accountable for what they have done. This does not mean they should be jailed or otherwise legally punished for their stupidity. But they should be shown just what an impact their actions had on those who created the garden. No doubt Brave Hearts, and their president Jenny Black, could get this message across loud and clear.

Garden of love to be brought back to life

Picture: BLAIR THOMSON.

Art works to lift school yard By BLAIR THOMSON STUDENTS at Glenroy Public School are turning their school grounds into works of art. Each student has spent time with St Kilda-based artist James Cattell, creating clay sculptures which will eventually become a key feature of the school. “It’s for a concrete sensory play area which the students will be able to take part in imaginary play activities,” assistant principal Sharelle Bailly said. “It’s going to be amazing. “We’ll start building the area in the next few weeks and hopefully have everything installed in November.” Mr Cattell, who has worked on an installation near the wood fired oven at Noreuil Park and at the children’s garden in the Albury Botanic Garden, said the students had enjoyed the creative experience. “They’re good kids having a lot of fun,” he said. Mr Catell will return to the school in term four and has further work at the Botanic Garden planned.

By BLAIR THOMSON VOLUNTEERS will bring a garden remembering those battling or lost to cancer back to life on Sunday. 60 roses will be planted at the Brave Hearts Celebration Garden at Belvoir Park in Wodonga after vandals destroyed the area in May. Brave Hearts president Jenny Black said the plants, including several Jane McGrath Roses, would be in bloom in Spring. “It felt like a chunk of you had been taken away from you, it was disbelief,” she said of viewing the destroyed garden. “Everyone was heartbroken because of what it stood for and it broke your heart to see those roses treated like dirt. “The reason for them to be replanted is the celebration of people’s lives and to instil that love and courage for the ones that are still on the journey … it will be just wonderful to have the garden back again.” Ms Black said she would welcome the vandals to the replanting to see the impact they had had on the garden. “If it turned into a positive experience for us in that they recognised

that they caused a lot of damage by the vandalism, it could be a positive for both sides,” she said. “I’d hope they would get the feeling of what the garden stands for and hope it would change their thinking. “It’s not an ordinary rose garden; those roses have a special, deep meaning.” The group is still awaiting clearance from Wodonga Council to install security cameras at the site to prevent future damage. “That’s like opening up a can of worms because Wodonga hasn’t got any cameras,” Ms Black said. “But the council were extremely apologetic and they are going to put a light up and they’ve said in the interim that if there are any roses damaged, they will replace them themselves. “Hopefully that won’t happen, but if that’s the case, they’ll keep maintaining them until the vandalism stops.” Sunday’s replanting will begin at 10.30am and is expected to take several hours. “Anyone that wants to help can come down,” Ms Black said.

Catch you at the Cube to be Wodonga’s cultural catch-cry THE Cube Wodonga was selected as the new name of the Arts, Community and Entertainment Centre at Monday night’s Wodonga council meeting. The venue replaces the Wodonga Civic Centre in Hovell Street. The name was selected after community consultation, with both online, email and hardcopy name suggestions received. The Cube Wodonga is a variation of one of the online suggestions

– The Culture Cube – and reflects the venue’s design that alludes to a cube-like shape. Wodonga Mayor Cr Mark Byatt said after the design process for the brand, the name was slightly altered to The Cube Wodonga as it had a stronger sense of pride and ownership of the project for the city’s residents. “Councillors were looking for a name that would represent the community and the diverse role the

venue will play into the future hosting events such as live comedy and music, functions, theatre, conferences and lectures,” he said. “We wanted it to be iconic, catchy, easy to remember and pronounce, and that linked to our existing brand and demonstrated what may occur inside the venue. “We thank the community for all of their suggestions and hope they take ownership of The Cube Wodonga once it opens next year.”

Cr Byatt said several names were explored, but many were not considered to be the right fit for the venue. “We didn’t want people referring to this great venue as the entertainment centre or performing arts centre – that was too generic,” he said. “This way people can simply say they are going to see a show at The Cube, and everyone in the region will know what they mean as it is succinct and catchy.”

163 sign up and more to come LAST week, Josh Dickinson from Physique Essentials announced a program that he envisioned would change the lives of Border residentsâ&#x20AC;Ś but even he has been left speechless by the response! â&#x20AC;&#x153;In only seven days we have received 163 entrants.â&#x20AC;? Mr Dickinson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This tells us a number of things. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Not only are we, as a community a tight-knit bunch, but many of us are

desperately needing help in improving our health and our lives.â&#x20AC;? The Your Best Body Challenge is such an event, where people can get together and help inspire each other with the benefits of fitness. With a weekly group fitness session, as well as fortnightly nutritional seminars to provide the nuts and bolts of good nutrition, their aim is to help as many people as possible!

â&#x20AC;&#x153;With 163 sign-ups in only seven days, it has made me wonder how big a difference we can truly make,â&#x20AC;? Mr Dickinson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Would it be possible to have 500 people sign up? What was once an unfathomable dream could quite possibly become a reality.â&#x20AC;? The challenge commences on September 3 with registration free. The only prerequisite is a $10 donation to the Wodonga Dog Rescue.

Seminar to tackle teen depression

Black dog day

By BERNADETTE CANNIZZARO

Are you in company of an adolescent? Have you noticed characteristic changes? Have they withdrawn from friends and family? Have you noticed a dramatic low self esteem or are they extremely self critical? If you answered yes to some of these questions, invest some time to attend the Teen Depression Seminar at the Regent CinemaÂ on Wednesday, August 31. One in five Australian children aged four to 17 have significant mental health concerns and young adults ages 18-24 have the highest prevalence of mental disorders of any age. The Rural Initiatives Project Manager for Black Dog Chris Rule said itÂ is difficult to understand why depression occurs, though we do know depression does not discriminate. Presenter and CommunityÂ Education Project Manager Kate Hille will feature a powerful illustration displaying what it feels like to live and deal with depression. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kate will be using a curriculum program titled â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Head Strongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; created by the institute, which is now accessible to PDHPE teachers as a free resource,â&#x20AC;? Mr Rule said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Navigating teenage depression is a program designed to provide accurate information about what depression is, how to spot early warning signs and how to build a resilience.â&#x20AC;? Factors such as bullying can also lead to depression. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unlike traditional school bullying, young people are so connected with bullying from social networks and SMS messaging, that it can occur 24 hours a day, seven days a week,â&#x20AC;? Mr Rule said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It can be confronting for a young person. Also, society is so fast paced these days.

Chris Rule talks about teenage depression. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you have a personality of an anxious worrier or a perfectionist then you may deal with external factors differently.â&#x20AC;? The annual seminar has proved successful with over 1500 people attending throughout regional NSW. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over 90 per cent of attendees feel more confident within themselves and have a greater confidence and knowledge to deal with issues they face after they attend a seminar,â&#x20AC;? Mr Rule said. Mr Rule said there is a stigma around mental health. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The fact is they are normal people dealing with an illness,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The analogy I have is you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave diabetes go unchecked.â&#x20AC;? The institute created and recently launched a depression diagnosis tool available nationally to general practitioners, allowing people to get a proper diagnosis. The seminar is at the Regent CinemaÂ on Wednesday, August 31, starting at 6.30pm.

Survey responses will be accepted until Friday, August 26. David Koschitzke, managing partner at Harris Liebermann, and chairman of the Albury Chamber of Commerce, said the survey is a great opportunity for local businesses to take a step back and reflect on the past year. “I would encourage everyone to complete the survey,” he said. “The best way to better understand how the local economy is travelling is to hear it from businesses themselves.” Survey results will be used to strengthen and support business and benchmark the region against other comparable cities. For information about the survey contact the Business Hotline on 6023 8719.

No interest loans scheme wins $24,000 from state By TREVOR JACKSON A SCHEME that allows people to borrow money at no interest for essential household items has received a $24,000 government grant. The money was presented to the Albury

Wodonga Community Network by member for Albury, Greg Aplin. No Interest Loan Scheme officer, Cheryl Ellington said the money was not a hand-out and needed to be repaid but said it helped to keep

those in need out of the cycle of high cost finance that many didn’t qualify for or couldn’t afford to repay. “We’ve done $85,000 worth of loans in the last 14 months,” Ms Ellington said.

By Bernadette Cannizzaro BORDER artist Jenny Toole is a vibrant person by character and her work is a reflection of that. A favourite painting of dormant vines at Vintara Vineyard captures the image of a cold winters’ day and it is apparent that her talent is great. Jenny discovered her passion as an artist in her school years. “Though I had times where I didn’t paint much, it was a renewed interest,” she said. “The last 15 years I have painted regularly. “I am varied in my subjects and I often surprise people with what I paint.” Her artwork has captured the attention in various art shows, winning highly commended awards. The most recent was The King Valley Art Show’s acquisitive water colour award. “I am paint impressionistic,” she said. “I don’t copy. I am not photo realistic.” She has been tutored by several internally known artists, notably Charles Sluga, who has given her inspiration for watercolour painting. “Charles is my biggest influence,” she said. “He constantly introduces new ways to approach painting. I am constantly learning. This year I will be attending a 28 day tutorial by Charles in Croatia.” Jenny is feature artist at St Augustine’s Primary School Art Exhibition and Sale accompanied by over 30 local and regional artists.

This hideout is attracting visitors as it becomes a real ...

Part of the community

By Bernadette Cannizzaro With so much talk of doom and gloom it is refreshing to drive through a residential street in Wodonga and find a buzz. People from all walks of life are lining up at any time of the day to enjoy fine coffee or a lunch time gathering. Mothers with prams, various groups, the adoring couple, all come to take some time out at the Hideout Cafe. Over a year ago, co-owners Kate Bullock and Dan Yassin saw the potential to open a cafe in an old, vacant fish and chip shop. Though it was deemed “risky” opening a new cafe in a hiden street, it has proven a success. “Friends and advisors who saw the vacant property were convinced it would fail, but we saw the opportunity and with the right strategy we knew it could work” Kate said. “The locals are proud, it’s their special treat to come to their local cafe. “People are travelling from High Street to come to us. “There’s a variety, that’s why I think people come here. “I am very aware of gluten free and about six of our desserts are gluten free. “Our customers comment that we have a great variety, as opposed to other cafes that only offer one or two items on the dessert menu.” It doesn’t stop there. Locals have taken to supplying the cafe with lemons. “I feel humbled when neighbours bring lemons,” Dan said.

COMMUNITY SPIRIT: Helen Young, Kim Passalaqua and Vicki Knight enjoy a meeting at the Hideout Cafe. Picture: Bernadette Cannizzaro

“We’ve been here a little over 12 months and we are surrounded by people who are generous and genuine and it gives me a real sense of belonging in this community.” When the cafe recieves an over-

supply of lemons, a large basket is placed on the counter with a sign for customers to take a lemon home free. “It’s the least we can do to pay the favour forward,” Dan says.

The customers get a buzz from it too, they inform the duo they’ve paid up to 90c per lemon in the supermarkets. Acts of kindness is all part of encouraging a community spirit.

Flies bring latest show home FOUR ex-Flying Fruit Fly Circus students will return to the Border to tell a tale of love, lost love and everything in between. Wodonga Council presents A4 Circus Ensemble in Downpour this September at the Flying Fruit Fly Circus’ new headquarters. Downpour is a show with a beating heart that combines drama with circus acts to create stunning imagery you have to see to believe. Four extraordinary performers juggle, balance, contort and hula their way through the quicksand of life and love. Based on a Dostoevsky short story, Downpour has just returned from a season at the Montreal Circus Festival and the Melbourne Fringe. The four characters stir from a sleep – a sleep disturbed by sounds of threatening weather. The stage is set and the audience soon learns who loves who and who doesn’t. The show will be on Saturday, September 24 at the Fruit Fly Circus headquarters in Hovell Street at 8pm. A family ticket (four people) costs $50. Single tickets are $15. Tickets can be obtained on the internet at http://www.wodonga. vic.gov.au/ticketsales/ or by phoning 6022 9223.

Work starts on Albury cancer carers centre By BLAIR THOMSON GROUND work for the Albury Wodonga Carers Accommodation Centre has began at Albury Base Hospital. A construction team will spend several months readying the site for construction by installing drainage lines and moving earth, with hopes the 20 room centre, which will house patients, carers and families, will be operational in about 12 months time. Stage two of the facility is hoped to be opened by 2014 and is expected to contain about 10 rooms. “This is one of the milestones,” Fight Cancer Foundation managing director Eric Wright said of the project starting. “There’s a sense of achievement. “There’s nothing to stop us now and I think the local Lions, Rotarians and Zonta people are quite excited that there’s real progress because they’ve been working on it for six or seven years.” Albury Council recently donated $25,000 to cover the installation of sewerage and water infrastructure, joining $725,000 in local donations to the project.

The Federal Government has donated $1.5 million and the NSW Government has contributed $750,000. Mr Wright will meet local members of Parliament Bill Tilley, Bill Sykes and Tim McCurdy in Parliament House in Melbourne next month to discuss ways to attract Victorian Government funding. “We’ve got community funding, commonwealth funding, NSW funding and the Victorian funding is pending,” he said. “We’re hoping the three MP’s can help us get that through the Victorian Government. “Their constituents are all in the catchment area and it’s those constituents that will benefit from the accommodation centre, so were asking them to put the story through to the Health Department. The accommodation centre will house people that travel to Albury for treatment from a radius of about 200km. “When the new cancer centre comes in there will be new services offered so the volume of people coming and going might increase,” Mr Wright said.

Seniors grants aplications now open The grants program is an integral part of the NSW Seniors Week celebrations from March 18-25, 2012.

You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need a skinfull to enjoy yourself on a night out

Why have a run-in with the police? ALBURY Local Area Command has experienced a number of months with relatively low crime figures and certainly no spikes in any specific areas. Many would suspect that our crime figures are seasonally based; lower crime results in the winter months and increases in the summer months, but this is not the case. Over the past few years the commandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s police have responded to almost an equal amount of jobs every month of the year! Nevertheless the warmer months bring people outside and

we respond to an increase in assault related matters. Spring is only a few weeks away and it is at this time of the year that Albury experiences an influx of visitors to the region, usually sporting groups celebrating the end of the season. It is a timely reminder to our community to encourage responsible behaviour and drinking. Historically Dean Street becomes a focus especially if there are reports of assaults occurring. From our own surveys we know that this focus creates a perception of a lack of safety in and

Policenews with

insp lynelle rodwell

around this area, however, Dean Street is exceptionally well policed and most covered by CCTV. With holidays fast approaching we often find our social life becoming more chaotic than ever. The more parties we attend, the more often we socialise and celebrate with alcohol.

%$.(5 027256 Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got you covered

Sometimes we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like hearing it but excessive drinking can have a negative effect on us, not only physically, but socially and emotionally as well. This doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a good night out. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just important to know your own limits. By drinking in moderation and having sober and supportive friends close by, one can have a happy and safe night out. An Australian Bureau of Statistics survey on personal safety conducted in 2005 showed that males between the ages of 18-24 were most likely to be physically

assaulted (43 per cent). If the assault was by another male then this usually occurred in a licensed premise (34 per cent) or in a public area (35 per cent). What can you do about this? Educate and raise the awareness among your friends, family, brothers, uncles, and anyone you know that socialises and consumes alcohol that fits this category. We all too often shake our heads at the events we read about alcohol fuelled violence. Ensure the people you are closest to act responsible and drink responsibly when they go out.

New tower site ‘still too risky’

By BLAIR THOMSON OPTUS has released a new plan for a Thurgoona mobile phone tower following opposition from residents over the first proposal. Under the new plan, the tower would be located at the Thurgoona Country Club car park near Thurgoona Drive, about 100m from the original site at the golf club greenkeepers yard. Optus said in the new development application that painting the 26.3m structure in “rivergum” and “pale eucalypt green” shades would minimise its visual impact, as would nearby mature trees. The company also took the recent decision to change the design of the structure, making it slimmer. “Optus believes it has taken all appropriate and available measures to mitigate any potential impact on the visual amenity at this location and believes the installation will not be an eyesore or be highly visible in the area,” the company said. “Furthermore, it is considered the the facility is vital infrastructure that would provide enhanced services to customers, providing improved coverage to the Thurgoona area.” Newton Circuit resident Linda Winterbottom and partner Simon Powell have been vocal opponents of the tower. Ms Winterbottom said while the new location was more appropriate it

Residents voiced worry over the effect the original proposal would have on land values and health and said the tower would be an eyesore.

Optus admitted at the time that it only considered two possible sites for the tower. An information session will be held at the Thurgoona Country Club Resort on Tuesday, August 23, at 6pm and submissions can be made on the application, available on the Albury Council website and offices, until August 29. Albury Council planning director Michael Keys said he thought the new site would be more acceptable to nearby residents. “We hope that the proposal addresses the majority of the concerns but we’re open to see what issues people may have with it,” he said. Council is expected to vote on the proposal in September or October.

SES members from Albury were among 45 emergency service personnel who took part in a major land search exercise in two national park locations between Moama and Deniliquin on the weekend. The exercise revolved around a major land search for two missing campers on Saturday, but as further information came to light, it became apparent that the missing persons may have run into foul play. A night search was conducted on a nearby property believed to be connected, and during that search police and SES personnel found evidence which led to an arrest, and provided further clues that the missing persons had been taken elsewhere by criminals. First thing on Sunday morning police and SES personnel went back to a different area of national park and soon discovered more evidence which

led them to finding two injured campers around lunch time. The two campers were given immediate first aid treatment by SES members and were then evacuated out of the bush by stokes litter to Ambulance Crews waiting just outside the park. The exercise had achieved its key goal of locating, and subsequently rescuing the missing campers. Key benefits from this activity included NSW Police Search Co-ordinators and field team leaders having an opportunity to put themselves and their techniques to the test in a realistic scenario. Given the success of the last two land search activities held between the NSW SES and NSW Police it is likely to be an annual event, with the next focusing on putting police and SES boat crews to the test in a water based activity.

Blending grapes - right or wrong? Mixing and matching

Here in Australia, I certainly see some weird and wonderful blends – often, unfortunately, not a result of a serious attempt to “marry” two compatible wine “siblings”, but often a way of getting rid of some surplus small quantity leftover batches. So, if your experiment with sangiovese didn’t work out, dump it in with the shiraz and no one will be the wiser.

winelovers with

paul muntz

n the New World, we seem to have a love affair with what are termed “single varietals” – that is, wines produced from a single grape variety. Contrast this with the Old World approach. After a few hundred years of experimentation, many classic wine areas (Bordeaux, Rhone Valley, Sauternes, etc) have worked out that their greatest wines are from a blend of different grapes.

Great Aussie blends

But not all “mixing” is as random – here in Oz, cabernet sauvignon and shiraz have always had a wonderful affinity, and have produced some fantastic outcomes, although that blend is rare elsewhere

in the world (the Froggies would never do it – quelle horreur!!!). Likewise, semillon sauvignon blanc blends from the Margaret River are truly yummy and make a refreshing and complex change from the predictable “passionfruit” driven New Zealand Sav Blancs.

And overseas?

Classic Bordeaux is a varying mixture (depending on the different communes) of cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, malbec or petit verdot. In Sauternes, French “stickies” are made from semillon, sauvignon blanc and a small dash of muscadelle. Things start to get really interesting when you hit the Rhone Valley. For example, Chateauneuf du Pape is made from no less than

13 varieties – usually around 8 red grapes and 5 white grapes! And in the Rhone, this is not a result of “using the leftovers” – most of the grapes are indigenous varieties seen rarely elsewhere, and the locals have worked out over scores of generations that they are the grapes that work best. Who knows? Maybe in a couple of hundred years, Aussie winemakers will have got to the same point. Are overseas wines always blended? Definitely not! The classic wines of Chianti are usually made only from sangiovese, and the wines of Alsace are almost exclusively from one grape only. Over in the Loire Valley, unmixed sauvignon blanc and chenin blanc show their best as straight varietals.

Sometimes, a little “dab” of another grape can be useful. In Cote Rotie (Northern Rhone) winemakers found that a small amount of the white grape viognier “lifted” their local syrah (shiraz), by adding some nice aromatics and complexity to the peppery syrah. Next week we will look at the exceptions to the rule – where single varietals work beautifully, and also have a look at bubblies.

Tip for the week?

Grab a bottle of Wynns cabernet, and their cabernet merlot blend, from the same year, and try them both – look for the different structure that the merlot brings, making the blend a little softer and “plummy”, and structured for earlier drinking than straight cabernet.

Fail-proof plum souflés foodgoss with

barb lowery

s we won’t see rosy, fullflavoured fresh plums until early next year, it’s a good opportunity to share a recipe with you

that uses a can of ready-cooked red plums. Soufflés are one of the most intimidating dishes to make, because the ingredients and technique need to be precise to ensure the soufflé rises well, is light as a feather and doesn’t collapse before you get it to the table. These beauties don’t require a paper “collar” and will also hold up for five minutes or more. So be a show-off and impress

your friends with this recipe that any budding junior chef could make. In summer you could substitute fresh raspberries for plums.

cup (250 ml) soufflé dishes with melted butter and sprinkle with caster sugar, shaking out excess. Remove stones from plums and place fruit in a food processor. Measure 1¼ cups (312 ml) of plum puree and add the lemon juice. Leave the remaining plum puree aside. Beat egg whites in a large bowl until soft peaks form. Gradually beat in the caster sugar and continue beating until mixture is thick and glossy. Quickly fold in sifted cornflour then

plum puree. Divide mixture between prepared dishes filling them to the top – don’t be afraid as the mixture will not spill over during baking! Place soufflé dishes on an oven tray and sprinkle with flaked almonds. Bake for about 15 minutes or until soufflés are well risen. Meanwhile swirl remaining plum puree into whipped cream and keep mixture cold. Dust soufflés with icing sugar and serve immediately with the plum cream.

Wine Pick A lovely light sweet dish like this calls for a yummy but “light” sticky – try a Horrocks “Corton Cut” Riesling (SA) or a Browns (of Milawa) Orange Muscat and Flora.

Receipe Plum Soufflés (Serves 6)

melted butter 2 tablespoons caster sugar 825g can red plums, well drained 1½ tblspns lemon juice 6 egg whites 2/3 cup caster sugar 3 tspns cornflour flaked almonds sifted icing sugar whipped cream, for serving Preheat oven to 190ºC. Brush 6 x 1

ustralia’s Open Garden Scheme started in 1987 after local gardeners had experienced garden visits under a similar scheme in England. It is a not-for-profit organisation which promotes knowledge and pleasure in gardens and gardening across Australia through opening gardens and holding other gardenrelated occasions. There is a board of directors and a chief executive officer as well as a committee, selection panel and co-ordinator in each State. Directors, committee members and selectors are all volunteers. Most of the scheme’s income comes from the entry fees charged at each garden, though 35 per cent of that entry fee returns to the garden owner, most of whom donate it to a charity of their choice. Since 1987, over $1,100, 000 has been donated to community garden projects. Those benefitting from the scheme are too numerous to mention, but range from Botanic and community gardens, to horticultural colleges, to school gardens, to hospital gardens,

PRUE SMITH

to the restoration of historic landscapes. Nearly $5 million has been given to charities by the garden owners, so it is a very worthwhile organization. The criteria which selectors of gardens try to maintain is simple. They want to open the best gardens in the district, subject of course to their owners wanting to do so, which will both entertain and interest those who visit them. The scheme includes all manner of styles in their list of gardens. Well-known classic gardens, such as Dame Elisabeth Murdoch’s home, “Cruden Farm” down in Gippsland, always attracts a huge number of visitors. So do other classic gardens in the Dandenongs near Melbourne, gardens in the Blue Mountains and Southern Highlands, and those in the Adelaide Hills. But people are also interested in seeing smaller gardens similar to their own sized gardens, hoping to get inspiration and ideas. The Guidebook for Australia’s Open Garden Scheme is now available in local bookshops and newsagencies.

Juliet aims for road to stardom By BLAIR THOMSON LOCAL performers will by vying for their chance at stardom at tomorrow night’s (Saturday) Telstra Road to Discovery competition at the Kinross Woolshed. Featuring six young local artists from towns including Wodonga, Kergunyah, Corowa and Wangaratta, each performer will play two songs, and one winner will be flown to Sydney in December to take part in a threeday music mentoring program covering all aspects of the music industry. They will then have the chance to compete in semi-finals and possibly the finals held during the Tamworth Country Music

Festival early next year, with a trip to Nashville the major prize. Wodonga musician Juliet Gibson, best known for her work with sister Grace as duo Grace and Juliet, said she had been perfecting her solo act in the lead up to the event. “I’m really trying to rehearse a lot and get myself up to scratch because I’d love to win it,” she said. She told NewsWeekly it had been hard to perform with her sister since she moved to Melbourne, so she has focused on writing new music for herself. “It’s a bit different to the style and genre that Gracey and I used to play; it’s a bit more commer-

cial, I guess you could say,” she said. “It’s more about inspirational stuff and more basic than the more complicated stuff that we used to play together. “I’m going to play a mix of covers and originals on the night.” The Wodonga Senior Secondary College year 11 student said she would move to Melbourne once her high school studies had finished and resume her work with Grace. Also performing at the show will be Australian Idol winner Shannon Noll and previous Road to Discovery songwriter category winner Dave Garnham. Artists including Tim Rogers, Mick Thomas and Ella Hooper recently performed alongside past winners at an event in Sydney. Rogers said the competition helped to foster up-and-coming performers. The event kicks off at 6.30pm at the Kinross tomorrow night (Saturday).

By BLAIR THOMSON COUNTRY music duo McAlister Kemp will play at the Kinross Woolshed tonight (Friday). The two musicians, Drew McAlister and Troy Kemp, first performed together in 2008 in a band covering the music of The Highwaymen. “We just toured a lot and while we were on the road we started writing songs together,” Kemp told NewsWeekly. “We were both solo artists at the time. “It turned into a project and we did the whole country music duo thing, and it just snowballed. “We’ve separately been playing cover songs in pubs for 20 years but we’ve lived very parallel lives. “Music is all we’ve ever done and all we know how to do.” While Kemp admits neither performer was particularly successful as a solo artist, their pairing has been met with much kudos. “It’s been a long time coming and it’s great to finally get some success and recognition for what you do,” he said. “It’s quite weird to win a Golden Guitar in your thirties for Best New Talent, but I suppose it shows you can break the mould which is kinda cool. “We’ve won that new talent award and just hope we can get the rest of the awards.” The band plays a brand of country music that’s tinged with American influences from Brooks & Dunn, Alan Jackson and The Warren Brothers. “Australia has got its own country tradition of John Williamson and Slim Dusty,” Kemp mused. “It just depends if you want to break the mould and sound more American. “The traditionalists in Australia don’t want country performers to sound American but there’s a place for that sound now, that rocking sort of sound.”

The duo are currently recording their second album, a follow up to last year’s All Kinds of Tough. “We went to Nashville in June to write for the album with some great songwriters,” Kemp said. “I guess you grow up listening to American country music and Nashville’s the home of country music in America; everyone that wants to make it in country music goes there. “We love to write songs there, soak up the atmosphere and immerse ourselves in what’s going on.” He expressed similar praise for the atmosphere at the Kinross. “It’s an amazing venue with an

amazing country feel … a very cool establishment to play country music,” he said. “We’ve played there a couple of times before, but this will be the first time as the duo. “We’ve also got local guy Korey Livy opening for us and he’s really good.” Kemp said they would also play a few cover songs like The Gambler, Copperhead Road and Sweet Home Alabama during the performance. “It’s just going to be a good rocking country night really,” he said. For more information call the Kinross on 6043 1155.

BOXOFFICE MOVIE: Red Dog DURATION: 92 minutes By BLAIR THOMSON IT’S quite refreshing to see an entertaining Australian film. They’re usually few and far between. But this feelgood story, shot in outback Australia is well produced and well acted and will appeal to people of all ages with it’s engaging true story about a dog discovered one day in the middle of a road in the middle of nowhere. And before I go any further – no, the dog doesn’t talk. It’s not that kind of film. The life of Red Dog, who is on his last legs after eating poison, is told through the tall tales of drinkers in the small Western Australian mining town of Dampier. The story goes that the Kelpie/ cattle dog, who is actually brown in colour, was given the name Red Dog after being covered by dust on his journey to the mining community. While he’s friendly with the tradies that work on the heavy

machinery at the mines, he’s a free spirit with a habit of roaming around and doing as he pleases. As the movie progresses, more people cram into the pub to recall their memories of the canine. Each person has a different story of Red Dog, like the time he saved someone’s life by distracting a shark with a steak, or the time he hit the road in search of his lost owner, travelling thousands of kilometres and ending up in places like Perth, Broome and Port Hedland. The film largely avoids the sappiness that often plagues feelgood movies. But it can’t quite avoid the caricature of the “tough Australian bloke” living in the outback, with words like “strewth” sometimes thrown in and the use of the stereotypical Aussie throughout. But it has a real ability to pull on the heart strings. Many cinema-goers will cry as the end of the film approaches with several people rubbing their welling eyes when NewsWeekly reviewed the film. It’s well worth a look.

Live and entertain in style A hidden treasure is the perfect description for this West Wodonga home. Whether a first home buyer or someone wishing to downsize this property offers the ideal package with everything in place to simply move in and enjoy. The well established landscaped gardens greet the new owners and extend to the rear of the property maintained by an in-ground watering system to ensure year-round picture perfect appeal. Inside the three bedrooms have built in robes, the main providing an en-suite with walk in robe. The large family room is segregated

from the main living area via double doors and the gas wall furnace is vented to the dining area for winter comfort while summer temperatures are kept at bay with ducted cooling. The large kitchen includes an ample pantry with gas cooking, dishwasher and double sink. The dining area opens to an entertainers paradise with paved undercover pergola in a picture-perfect back yard setting. The rear of the property is also accessed through the double garage via a rear roller door allowing for easy garden maintenance.

Avoid pitfalls that go with DIY renting Do you own an investment property? If so, it’s a good idea to use the services of a professional when renting it out as trying to do this yourself could end up costing you both in time and money. Some of the stories told by professional property managers would convince the staunchest do-it-your-selfer that this job is not for the faint-hearted, or the amateur. There is the case of a landlord who selfmanaged his properties and who failed to provide the tenants with proper notice when he wanted to increase the rents. When the tenants failed to pay the extra amount, he evicted them and went to the Consumer Trade and Tenancy Tribunal to try and obtain the outstanding money. However, because he had breached the rules, the CTTT stopped him from recovering the unpaid rent and took further action for illegally forcing his tenants to leave. Most real estate agencies have professional property management staff used to dealing with situations such as these and who are on top of all the many rules and regulations. Residential property managers’ sole job is to manage rental properties, carrying out a myriad of duties from finding tenants and ensuring the rent is paid to organising re-

While you may like the idea of having a close relationship with a tenant of your choice, it is worth considering what might happen if the trust and friendship between you breaks down – as it can – and you find yourself unable to deal with a person in a situation that is less chummy than it was. As professionals, property managers can deal fairly and equitably with both you and the tenant in your property. They know the market and will be able to negotiate rent increases, they can advise you on what sort of insurance you should have and they can make you aware of problems if your property is unsound in any way.

THE ONLY VIEW THAT MATTERS

| HOUSEANDLAND

Bricks and mortar the best return First step towards White Box Rise pool THE construction of Wodonga’s new pool has begun. Work to remove 60 large trees and smaller scrub at the White Box Rise site began on Monday with a Takeuchi earthmover flattening trees and shredding them. When it’s opened in December 2012, the $11.2 million pool will be 50m x 25m and have a splash pad, toddler pool, and shade, cafe and retail areas. “After a fair few years of waiting it’s fantastic to see the site starting to take shape with some early clearance stages,” Wodonga mayor Mark Byatt said. “I don’t think there’s a comparison between this facility and the

old facility. “This is a new facility and something that should last the community for many years in the future.” Stormwater captured at White Box Rise, which currently has more than 300 homes, and surrounds, will be treated and reused in the pool and the trunks of the removed tree will line the banks of the Murray River in a bid to stop erosion. Council received 25 expressions of interest to head the aquatic project with that list now down to eight. A head contractor and secondary contractor are expected to be appointed by December with works including site establishment, earth-

works, drainage and construction to commence shortly after. Cr Byatt said the pool was one of two big projects for the city, with the Wodonga performing arts centre, which was this week named The Cube Wodonga, currently under construction. “We’re still working towards opening the aquatic facility for the start of the 2012-13 swim season, so we’re on time and on track for that barring any unforeseen circumstances like delays caused by the weather,” he said. “It’s a fantastic outcome for us and a major project.” The pool is a replacement for the aging Stanley Street facility.

Enzo Raimondo CEO Real Estate Institute of Victoria increases for property was 1.6 per cent compared to 1.3 per cent for shares. Not only were the returns greater but they were subjected to less volatility. The study also found that in over 80 per cent of the market segments reviewed there was very little or no correlation between the share market and returns from the residential property market. This means that broadening an investment portfolio to include property is likely to provide not only stability to the outcomes but can also help to counter balance shifts in the stock market.

The recent falls in the stock market, both here and overseas, are a timely reminder about the benefits of diversified investment portfolio which includes property. The last 20 years have shown that investment in Melbourne property has provided better returns than the stock market, a factor that will provide further comfort to property investors. A recent study by Dr Ashton de Silva and Professor Gavin Wood published by RMIT University showed that, in addition to satisfying the basic need of accommodation, housing was also a very solid long-term investment. Their study compared the typical rates of appreciation across 108 different segments and 500,000 sales between 1990 and 2010. This period of time includes the 1991 recession, Asian Financial Crisis, the 2001 recession and the recent Global Financial Crisis. The outcome was compared to that gained from a balanced portfolio of Australian shares as measured by movements in the Australian All Ordinaries Index over the same time. The study showed that that the quarter-on-quarter percentage

SMART: Year nine, Jessy Shippard used his size to the team’s advantage against Murray High at Albury Sports Stadium.

Boys show they’re up to task ALBURY High school under 15 boys basketball team have continued on from their female counterparts’ success with wins in their first two games of the Combined High School tournament. Having had strong wins over both James Fallon and Murray high schools the team is looking solid and hoping for success in the Riverina leg of the tournament before taking on the rest of the state. Coach Greg Wright said the team was working well together and had gelled quickly to produce some good results. But he was philosophical about their continued success as the competition progressed. “They’re not too bad but unfortunately they don’t have a very tall player,” he said. “Once we start getting up against schools that have boys who are under 15 and about six foot six we’re going to start struggling … it’s amazing how tall some of the kids are.” The team predominantly consists of year nine boys other than year seven Jessy Shippard. However, despite his small stature Mr Wright said Jessy had slotted well into the line-up, using his size to his advantage. “He does remarkably well,” Mr Wright said. “He makes it hard for the tall guys because he just goes around them or under them, draws them in and passes off and sets up our guys inside.” Mr Wright added that he considered his starting five to be very strong and felt the team had performed well at this early stage of the competition and time would tell how far they could progress. “For a recently formed team they’ve gelled pretty well together … they play quite well,” he said. “It’s the first time we’ve played with the four quarter format and they seem to be able to handle the rotation quite well. “We’re hoping to win Riverina and after that it’s a toss up as to who we’re going to play and how far we go.”

BORDER cyclist, Declan Gregory has claimed victory at the John Woodman Memorial Wagga to Albury cycling race on Sunday. Gregory said it was an amazing feeling to have won the race at just 18 years of age in his first attempt and to be the first rider in the history of the race to take the title wearing Albury Wodonga colours. “I couldn’t ride it last year and I followed the race so it’s just a race I wanted to do,” he said. “It just came together perfectly.” Gregory said while the conditions were good throughout the race it was still a tough event and he praised the club riders and his Albury Wodonga Cycling Club Development squad team-mates for their work to ensure he had every chance of winning. “It was hard but the bunch was working well and we had a tail wind most of the way so it didn’t make it too difficult in that respect,” he said. “Shane (Way) and Jamie (Ruddy) rode unreal. At the end there they covered all moves and drove pretty strongly up the hill and put us in a good position, and Jamie, at the finish just following my wheel right to the line was perfect.” Coming off the Jindera Gap Gregory was sitting in a strong position at the front and broke away with a Shepparton rider to attempt to break open the pack but was unable to create a winning margin. It all came down to a sprint to the line and although going early, Gregory proved his strength to take the narrow win. “We didn’t have a huge lead at the Gap but we just had to go for it,” he said. “We got caught at the base then just kept going and got to the sprint and it was just perfect.

ELATION: Declan Gregory shows off the spoils of victory after the presentations following Sunday’s John Woodman Memorial victory. Picture: TREVOR JACKSON.

“I sprinted too far out, I always do it, but I had to go, I was just going to get swamped. “I can’t believe it, it’s unreal, the first time I’ve done it … it’s bloody unreal, it’s awesome.” Border cycling identity, Steve

Kilpatrick said the whole race amounted to a team effort from those in the club and felt the team aspect of the sport on the Border was currently as strong as he could recall. “There were riders up the front

helping Declan,” Kilpatrick said. “Other riders were helping Washo (Brendan Washington) to try to get him the fastest time. “It was a great team effort overall and shows how well everyone is working together at the moment.”

Charity event to aid children’s foundation

SELECTION: Back row: Jeremy Payne, Dom Wild, Fergus Dawson, Sam McIntosh. Front row: Janessa Donnelly, Shelby Thorneycroft, Jo Plowright. Absent: Zac Nelson.

Border 8 head overseas BORDER hockey is to be well represented again at an international level with eight players from the region selected in the Australian Country teams to tour Asia later this year and early next year. Four under 21 players will travel to Fiji later this year to contest the Pacific Cup and another four senior players will travel to Malaysia and Thailand in April. The under 21 players selected are Dom Wild, Sam McIntosh, Shelby Thorneycroft and Zac Nelson while the senior players are Jeremy Payne, Fergus Dawson, Janessa Donnelly and Jo Plowright. Payne told NewsWeekly they were all selected after representing

Victoria in Melbourne then travelling to Port Lincoln to contest a tournament against other country sides in Australia. He said going on the strength of the competition at Port Lincoln the Australian teams should prove to be strong contenders in the international competitions. “We played in the Victorian side and were a very strong team but we only won one game,” he said. “Qld and NSW are really strong teams and both of those sides had between three to four players selected in the Australian side. “We should be a really strong side so we’re hoping to do pretty well.”

BORDER cyclists are being urged to participate in the Genesys pro cycling team annual charity event next weekend. The team is raising much needed funds for the Children First Foundation and began the annual event last year with good support from the Border’s cycling fraternity. Event organiser, Gill Battye said they were hoping this year’s event would be bigger and better and could raise more money for the worthwhile charity. “The Children First Foundation is the major charity of the Genesys cycling team and Genesys Wealth Advisers,” Ms Battye said. “We try to raise funds for the foundation wherever we can and we’re lucky because we have access to the pro team … they’re smashing it across the country at the moment.” Ms Battye said last year’s event attracted around 50 riders and was a great opportunity for Border cyclists to meet and ride with a professional team. She said many participants from last year had requested a more challenging course so this year the course design was handed over to Brendan

Washington from Albury Wodonga Cycling Club Development who has provided two separate rides to cater for all cyclists. A 20km course will take in areas of Albury with a short climb up East Street while the longer 60km course will test the stamina of the more experienced with a tough climb up the trout farm hill near Lake Hume. Washington said he was pleased to be involved with the charity ride and hoped some members of the development squad could participate despite commitments to race at Cootamundra. The ride heads off from The Full Cycle in Macauley Street at 8.30am on Saturday August 27 with registration from 8am. The cost is $10 for adults and $5 for children with all registration fees going to the foundation. All who register go into the draw to win a Genesys Pro Cycling team jersey and The Full Cycle is offering an opportunity to ride in the Genesys team car at the Tour of the Murray for those who enter at the shop and answer three simple questions at the time. The ride will finish with a sausage sizzle at Hovel Tree Park.

Just how can you tip this lot? THERE’S not really a lot I can say about last weekend’s footy results. My own results speak for themselves but they also speak volumes for the quality of footy being played in the region at the moment. No results are a foregone conclusion and despite the Tigers’ domination of the competition this season they too have shown vulnerability. They may well have claimed the minor premiership but it certainly hasn’t been plain sailing and the season is anything but over. The biggest shock of the weekend was probably Myrtleford getting up over Wangaratta. But then the Saints have achieved one of their best seasons for some time. But the final 102-70 result wasn’t indicative of the game, the final term six goal blast from the Saints certainly unexpected. And while the victory can only add to the confidence up in Myrtleford it would have done little for the Magpies as they face the business end of the season. North Albury’s season was buried by Corowa-Rutherglen with the Roos taking a 118-104 victory. A six-goal third term set up the victory but a last term effort from the Hoppers almost reversed the result. The Hoppers are now left to rue a season that could have been. The Raiders were under the pump to keep their season hopes alive when they faced a strong Lavington outfit and would certainly have started as underdogs. From the outset they showed a determination that eventually gave them the points, 94-67.

ous contenders come finals time. With the top five now cemented this week’s round is a simple formality and most games should provide just that. Lavington should have no trouble bouncing back this week to defeat Corowa-Rutherglen, North Albury will finish on a high against the Rovers, the Saints should take their winning tally one game further with victory over Wodonga, Albury will have no trouble against Wangaratta and Yarrawonga will be pushed to the limit but should prevail against the Raiders.
