Rebellion on Camp Hill IT was up to the young people of Bendigo yesterday to commemorate one of the events that shaped the Australian identity. The Bendigo Historical Society led the re-enactment of the August 1853 Red Ribbon protest on Camp Hill in what is now Rosalind Park. Dressed in outfits from the past, and sporting red ribbons, like the miners who were protesting the licence fee imposed by the government, grades three to six from Camp Hill Primary gathered to hear the call to peaceful protest. Connor Barker and Rory Marshall (left) played the roles of the commissioners who were called on to reduce the licence fee, a first win for the beleaguered miners and the first step towards the all-out Eureka Stockade rebellion in Ballarat. “Our students don’t get so much local history now, with all the things on the curriculum we have to cover, so this is a chance for us to focus on our history,� teacher Brett Parkes said. “It reminds the kids of Camp Hill how Bendigo was built.�

PLANS to turn one of the city’s neglected gems into a “tourist mecca� could rejuvenate Bendigo’s CBD. The Bendigo Weekly can reveal local entrepreneur Mark Coffey is in discussions with the City of Greater Bendigo council to turn Pall Mall’s Beehive building into a residential and commercial showpiece. “On a smaller scale, the Beehive building could be as good as (Sydney’s) Queen Victoria Building,� Mr Coffey said this week.
Entrepreneur aims to add new life to Beehive building
“It’s a building we should be proud of but Bendigo people haven’t supported this kind of development in the past. “This is more important than Fortuna which is too hard, too complex a project.�
Mr Coffey has renovated such landmark buildings as the Wine Bank on View, which he runs with his wife, Janine, and Park View (overlooking the fountain, with Aussie Disposals on the ground floor). His company, Allawah, spe-
cialises in inner-city accommodation in renovated historic buildings. One-third of the Beehive building, facing the RSL museum on Rosalind Park, has been owned by the council since 1999. It was last offered for develop-
ment in 2003, but has been sitting empty while maintenance work was carried out. “The only reason council is interested in the Beehive building is to find models and options to retain its heritage value,� council Planning and Development director Prue Mansfield said. “The best way to do that is to find a contemporary re-use that is financially viable.

Premier event missed
Friday, August 5, 2011 – Bendigo Weekly
By PETER KENNEDY and ANTHONY RADFORD
WHILE it is difficult to keep family politics out of weddings, professional politics rarely gets a look in. That wasn’t the case during this week’s official world premiere of The White Wedding Dress Exhibition at the Bendigo Art Gallery. Despite the significance of the event to Bendigo, the state and the nation, both Premier Ted Baillieu and Tourism Minister Louise Asher declined invitations to attend and open the event. Instead, Local Government Minister Jeanette Powell launched the exhibition, at one stage confus-

ing Bendigo with Shepparton. All this didn’t sit well with Labor Member for Bendigo East Jacinta Allan, who was scathing in her criticism, as were council and gallery representatives. “Curator Karen Quinlan and her team have done a tremendous job and this exhibition will be a great art, tourism and economic boon for our city,� Ms Allan said. Ms Allan said it was disappointing neither Mr Baillieu or Ms Asher made the trip to Bendigo. In response, a government spokesperson played down the significance of the event to the state, the nation and the arts industry. The spokesperson referred to
“This is not the first snub from the Liberal National Government for Central Victoria� the event as highlight only of the “regional arts calendar� and attacked Ms Allan for politicising it. “The success of arts events in our region relies on bipartisan support from community leaders,� she said. “The Bendigo Art Gallery was one of the first regional galleries to host the Premier when he opened
the Arthur Guy Memorial Painting Prize in February.� Ms Allan said former Premiers had been keen to come to the region for major art events. “This is in stark contrast to the other Victoria and Albert Museum exhibition, The Golden Age of Couture, which was opened by the former Premier,� she said.
“This is not the first snub from the Liberal National Government for Central Victoria and regional arts. “For the first time in years, the Castlemaine State Festival was not opened by the Premier, Arts Minister or a senior government minister. Instead it was opened by a parliamentary secretary.� “In the past, Premiers Jeff Kennett and Steve Bracks have not only found the time, but have been thrilled to open the festival and support international arts events in regional Victoria.� “It is shame Mr Baillieu can not seem to get out of Melbourne and do the same.�
Government shelves library cuts
WORTH A LOOK: Visitor numbers have been encouraging. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN
THE State Government has responded to pressure from local councils, including the City of Greater Bendigo, and reversed a decision to cut funding to libraries. Minister for Local Government Jeanette Powell announced yesterday an additional $6.5 million over the next three years and a further $100,000 for a review of services and funding to the sector. Earlier this month, there was a public backlash, led by the Municipal Association of Victoria, against the surprise cuts of $5.7 million from library funding.
Bank to release results BENDIGO and Adelaide Bank will be releasing its full-year results on Monday. Investors, analysts and media will have an opportunity to listen to presentations from managing director Mike Hirst, and chief financial officer Richard Fennell and ask questions about the results. The event will be held from 10am to 11.30am at InterContinental – The Rialto, Trade Room, Level 1, 495 Collins Street, Melbourne.
Students mentor in language
White wedding exhibition draws crowds By ROSEMARY SORENSEN
A STEADY stream of Bendigonians visited the White Wedding Dress exhibition at Bendigo Art Gallery this week, taking advantage of the weekday opening before the first big weekend. Some of the early visitors were a group from the Women of Influence network, who headed to Bendigo for a tour of the blockbuster show which includes not only historical garments from the Victoria and Albert Museum in London but also a collection of Australian designs.
Laura Anderson, the chair of  L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival, said the show is brilliant not just for fashion industry people, but also young people interested in the way style has changed. “This is also a fabulous exhibition for education, because there are so many stories behind the gowns,� she said. Ms Anderson’s own wedding gown, designed by another Woman of Influence, Linda Britten, features in the Australian section of the show. The gown, based on a Dior design, is a simple, ro-
mantic style. It contrasts with the out-there designs such as the inside-out dress by Steve Bruton, which has a figurehugging ruched dress encased in a petticoat frame. Robyn Caughlan’s Aboriginal wedding dress from 1998 features the Aboriginal flag in a kind of gypsy design, while Romance Was Born designers Luke Sales and Anna Plunkett have a wool and raffia gown with a bodice of Swarkovski crystals on show. “It’s so important to keep and preserve these dresses,� Ms Anderson said. “They are so much a part of both family
and social history.� “The wedding gown is such an important part of our culture, and it’s common to so many cultures,� Ms Britten said. “For a designer, of course it’s also what we finish the show with, so it’s very special.� Gallery director Karen Quinlan is keeping a close eye on the visitor numbers and responses to this beautifully displayed show. “We won’t know the response for a while, but it’s looking very good so far,� she said.
AS part of their studies in Cultural Diversity in the local community, 15 La Trobe University Occupational Therapy students will mentor BSSC’s newly arrived students needing English language support. The students will attend the Bendigo ESL Learning Support after hours Homework Centre to work with BSSC’s new arrival students. The program was launched on Tuesday and was celebrated with an afternoon tea.
Jail time for Census NEXT Tuesday the Census is doing jail time. The Census is a snapshot of the nation and accurately measures the number of people in Australia on Census night, their key characteristics, and the places in which they live, including inside Australia’s 233 jails. Head of the Population Census program, Paul Lowe, said Australia’s 26,255 prisoners will be counted in the 2011 Census using administrative data that captures the prisoner’s age and sex.

Boost for Catholic schooling
Friday, August 5, 2011 – Bendigo Weekly
Maiden Gully site for education expansion
By PETER KENNEDY
THE proposed Catholic school at Maiden Gully will provide a comprehensive educational facility from Prep to Year 12 . Catholic Education Sandhurst director Phil Billington chairs the Maiden Gully Steering Committee, and said the new schools would complement the established Catholic schools in the region. “This is a wonderful outcome for Bendigo,” Ms Billington said. “The Maiden Gully Catholic School provision has the full support of the Diocese and the leaders
www.bendigoweekly.com.au
of Catholic schools in the Goldfields area.” Catholic College Bendigo confirmed plans for a new Marist Brothers secondary school at Maiden Gully on Tuesday. The expected commencement date for the school is some time in 2014. The project also involves a partnership with the City of Greater Bendigo council for the development of public recreational facili-
ties to cater for the local area. Council chief executive officer Craig Niemann said there was an intent to provide recreation facilities jointly to make sure the Maiden Gully area received the facilities it needed. “This will be a great outcome if we can pull it off,” he said. Ms Billington said the growing interest in Catholic education in the Bendigo region had prompted the establishment of the new
school site and all involved parties were committed to consulting with the community in order to provide the best facilities possible. She said the new school would firmly establish Catholic Education Sandhurst as a leading provider of education in the region offering more choice for Bendigo families, in particular those in the Maiden Gully area. A public rezoning consultation meeting will take place at Maiden
Gully Hall from 9.30am to 1.30am and 6pm to 8pm on Wednesday, August 17 as part of the rezoning proposal required to develop the new school site. Representatives from Catholic Education Sandhurst, their consultant team and the council will be there to provide information and to answer questions about the proposal.

Premier defends gallery no show By BEN CAMERON
PREMIER Ted Baillieu has dismissed Opposition claims he snubbed Bendigo by failing to attend last weekend’s official opening of The White Wedding Dress: 200 Years of Wedding Fashions. Mr Baillieu declined to say why he missed
the opening of one of the state’s biggest tourism events, which was left to Local Government Minister Jeanette Powell to open, despite the Premier saying the Bendigo exhibition was a prime example of his government’s commitment to the regions through tourism projects.

In Bendigo this week to tour new pilot offices of the Department of Premier and Cabinet, Mr Baillieu said the Opposition’s claim that he’d snubbed Bendigo was a lot of hot air. “I think the Opposition is doing what it does best and that is make a lot of noise and make a lot of fuss,” he said.

“I’ve had the pleasure of being at the wedding dress exhibition today already and it’s been a fantastic exercise and I’m looking forward to similar exhibitions promoting Bendigo.” The Bendigo DPC on King Street was one of the first regional centres established and will be on a nine-
month trial basis. “(It’s) an important step, and it will work,” Mr Baillieu said. He also said he was “very satisified” with Bendigo Health’s handling of the possible privitatisation of pathology services. “I’m confident that we’ll get a great outcome,” he said.

A COMMUNITY forum will be held this morning to brief locals on the planned new Kangaroo Flat swimming pool complex. The City of Greater Bendigo council wants to build an indoor 25 metre pool on the site, but the local Kangaroo Flat Community Enterprise group wants it 50 metres long. The Enterprise group will hold the meeting at the Kangaroo Flat Sports Club today from 10am. The council will brief the community on the existing plans to build the complex in Browning Street. The site was chosen after an extensive review of the aquatic facilities across the region and a feasibility study recommended the closure of the existing pools in Kangaroo Flat and Golden Square. As well as a pool, the planned complex will include health and fitness services. Enterprise chairman Alan Besley said the forum would enable locals to see plans of the proposal which was first mooted in January, 2009. “This is a great opportunity to hear more about this exciting project and we encourage all interested parties to come along and put forward their ideas,” he said. “Local primary and secondary schools are also very keen to put forward their views at the forum. “This is a great way to get feedback on the community needs for future generations.” Council is yet to decide on whether to provide a 25 or 50 metre indoor pool as part of the proposal.

Water boss moves on ting in the drawer. “We will need them, no doubt, at some stage in the next 20 to 30 years.” Mr Hanlon leaves Coliban Water a much stronger place than when he arrived. Water has never been more secure for Bendigo, and the city is now drought proof. “I would have liked to be further down the track with the reconfiguration of the rural system,” he said. “But, there is no quick solution to that.” Mr Hanlon was full of praise for his board and staff. “The executive team that is there now is the strongest executive team I have ever worked with,” he said. “They would all like water to take a back seat in terms of profile. “When I began the board told me they wanted an open organisation that served its customer base. “I am only a servant of the board, so the recent changes all relate to them.”
Sports for Schools returns JUST months after delivering more than $7 million of sporting equipment to more than 7600 schools across Australia, Coles has announced the return of its popular Sports for Schools program which aims to get Australian kids active and engaged in grassroots sport. The biggest program of its kind in Australia, Coles Sports for Schools encourages customers to collect vouchers when they shop at Coles which their local school can then exchange for free sports equipment with one voucher earned for every $10 spent at Coles supermarkets and Coles online. Due to overwhelming demand, and a record number of schools registering for the program, Coles Sports for Schools voucher collection in all states has opened, two weeks earlier than planned, Coles Sports for Schools 2011 is also partnering exclusively with the AFL to sponsor the AFL Schools program which features a nationwide network of school football ambassadors to promote the game and develop skills at grassroots level. Coles managing director Ian McLeod said the company was looking forward to another successful program.

COLIBAN Water was a much different place when managing director Gavin Hanlon first walked through the door on July 2, 2008. Mr Hanlon leaves the water corporation today for his new job as managing director of GoulburnMurray Water. When Mr Hanlon began at Coliban, community support for the organisation was at an all-time low. Water was scarce, and harsh restrictions were seen as the only way of solving the problem. Fast forward three years, admittedly a lot of rain later, and the corporation’s main focus is on what to do with all the water it has. The Coliban system has more water now than at any time in its history. Mr Hanlon’s management of the Goldfields Superpipe and a change in board philosophy from one of conservation to one of finding and purchasing water has changed
things around for the region dramatically. “Conservation will only take you so far before it starts hurting families and pensioners,” he said. “My time at Coliban has been a roller coaster ride. “I started when we were in extreme drought, built a new team, fixed the financials and ended with extreme flood. “We have effectively built a new organisation and taken consultants out of it. It has been a lot of fun.” It wasn’t that fun, though, when Mr Hanlon began. “My immediate focus was all about trading water for Bendigo and getting seriously nervous about the Castlemaine, Kyneton and Loddon systems,” he said. “That was all in the first 12 months. “If it hadn’t rained, plans were in place, and if a decision was made, projects to solve these problems were ready to go. “It is nice to know they are sit-

NEW VIEW: Students have mappe their ideas for Eaglehawk d out ’s future
Meeting the needs BendigoAhead By ROSEMARY SORENSEN
TOP of the agenda for the Eaglehawk Business and Community Network is the need to maintain what makes the place special. They also know it has to meet the needs of the locals. “Eaglehawk is unique in Bendigo,” president of BCN3556 Ross Mitchell said this week. “We’re more like Maldon, and we’re also a very community-minded group. “Development is great, but we don’t want to kill that village feel.” La Trobe University Planning students presented a concept plan for the development of Eaglehawk at the BCN3556 annual general meeting on Tuesday. As an exercise in imagining a future for a city, the students put forward ideas for what Eaglehawk might look like in 2030. The plans, which prioritised higher density housing for the central business district and public spaces with pedestrian access,

prompted lively discussion among the network members. “The students recognised there is a need for better pedestrian environments and places for retail growth,” La Trobe University Planning lecturer Andrew Butt said. “Project ideas include slowing traffic and making crossing High Street safer, and the development of a plaza-style space on either side of Victoria Street, at the rear of the shops which would open up new retail and residential opportunities. “There was an active discussion, with the network keen to see ideas. “They didn’t agree with all of them, but it was very good debate.” Mr Mitchell said it was the first time both business and community had come together to plan Eaglehawk’s future. “We have made plans and run workshops in the past about what we need and prioritising it, but the idea now is to form a network that can actually drive it,” he said. “With the students’ concepts, there were a lot of things where you think, that’s never going to happen, but this has given us a solid start, something to work on.”
A new ambulance station, Aldi supermarket and community facilities will “transform the western entrance,” Mr Mitchell said, and the eastern entrance is set for change with the St Peter’s Church site up for development. City of Greater Bendigo Eaglehawk Ward councillor Peter Cox said the need for service-planning was crucial in the area as the population grew. “There is plenty of land that can be developed within the area, including vacant Crown Land,” he said. “Rather than spreading the development outwards it makes a lot of sense to evaluate existing vacant land that already has services, shops and transport close by. “People want to be connected to a suburb that has a heart and that sums up the 3556 postcode pretty well. “It has everything, but it needs a makeover.” Council will begin a plan to develop Eaglehawk in a two- kilometre radius from the town centre.

Team effort the way to go wanted to put another team in. “Some are new staff this time around, and some went in it last year and realised they could have taken it more seriously,” he said. “We are building up some rivalry – we’ve challenged
Coliban Water to put a team in, too.” Workplace teams will be entered in either of two categories; 2-5 staff and over 5 staff. There is no extra fee, you just nominate your team on your individual entry form. According to St
John of God Hospital chief executive officer Michael Hogan, like last year, some employers are subsidising all or part of the $50 entry fee for their staff, as a health and wellbeing initiative. Proceeds this year go to the Heart Foundation.

From Page 1 “It’s a complicated equation, so we’re taking time to bring it to the market, but when we offered it last time, there was not a single expression of interest.” Ms Mansfield said the project originally looked at heritage planning for the entire building, but that proved “unachievable”. Mr Coffey said his plan was to renovate the building with apartments on one level, and boutique stores in the ornate arcade area which once housed stock exchange agents. He is anticipating council will put the building up for sale, once repair works have been completed this month. “It always costs more to renovate than to pull something down and start again, but it’s a feel-good thing,” Mr Coffey said. “What I’d like to see is this building sold with conditions on it, so the cost of renovation is clear, and transparent, and then may the best man win. “It’s most important that it is restored, and what I’d hate to see is someone buy it and the status quo remains – and nothing happens.”

From Page 7 “I was delighted at the response to last year’s Sports for Schools program which had such a big impact on schools around Australia and brought communities together collecting vouchers to get their schools new sports gear,” he said. “As the research we have published today shows, parents know that getting kids active and involved in sport is important and it’s encouraging to see that so many support their kids and their schools from the sidelines or as an organiser.

Sports for Schools returns “It’s also great news that the amount of time spent playing sport in Australia appears to be on the increase. “But our research also highlights how important to schools and parents having enough of the right equipment is if kids are to be encouraged to get active and stay involved. “With so many demands on school resources and parents facing rising household bills, it’s easy to see how sports can become an unaffordable luxury to many Australians.” Celebrity chef Curtis Stone is

the ambassador for the program. “I’m passionate about getting kids interested at an early age in eating well and keeping active,” Mr Stone said. “Good habits picked up in the playground will often stick and there is no better start we can give our kids than a healthy lifestyle.

Anthony Radford
Ben – It’s the local you know 3BO and I am here with Bendigo Weekly editor Anthony Radford. Radders, let’s talk about what’s happening around Central Victoria. At the moment it’s all about the new Catholic school planned for Maiden Gully. What’s the latest you have on that one? Anthony – This has been in the wind for the past three or four year. Ages ago there was an announcement it would be at Maiden Gully. This week they announced it would be the Marist Brothers running it which, as a Marist Old Boy, I think is fantastic. What I can also reveal today is there will be, out on the same sight with shared recreation facilities, a Catholic Primary school as well. Ben – That sounds like it will be a boon for the locals and for the rest of Bendigo. Anthony – It will be run by the Catholic Diocese under the authority of the parish of St Liborious, who also run a primary school in Eaglehawk. This is coming off the basis that there are more Catholic children at Maiden Gully Primary School than any other Bendigo public primary school. Obviously there is a demand out there for Catholic education. Ben – Once again, demonstrating the progression and growth of Bendigo. Now, as far as visitors to town goes, the Premier is in town today, but he comes amid a bit of controversy. What’s going on there. Anthony – Yes, Premier Ted Baillieu and Tourism Minister Louise Asher were conspicuous by their absence at the opening of the art gallery’s White Wedding Dress exhibition on the weekend. Both were invited and both declined, instead leaving Local Government Minister Jeanette Powell, who mistook Bendigo for Shepparton during her speech, to do the honours. In response to Jacinta Allan’s criticism of this, the Premier’s office today released a statement saying the exhibition was the highlight of the regional cultural calendar. That is wrong, and maybe points to why Mr Baillieu didn’t turn up. This exhibition is a highlight in the Victorian and Australian cultural calendar and needs to be treated as such by the State Government, as such exhibitions were by the previous government.

Discovering our history is informative, too A NOTE to say thanks and well done for the weekly column Discovering Bendigo. James Lerk’s current series: Defining Irishtown, Activity in Irishtown, Social Challenges and What’s in a Name is exceptional in that it illuminates a little-known part of Bendigo’s history. A walk along the length of Bridge Street looking at it through much more informed eyes is educational. The roots of the North Bendigo community have never been described in such interesting detail, and I look forward to following the series as it unfolds. Well done James and well done Bendigo Weekly. Noel Ridge, Bendigo
Gallery the plaything of marketing DRESSED-UP Bendigo Art Gallery economic benefit claims distort the gallery’s purpose and undermine the worthy efforts of its staff. The worry is the gallery has become the plaything of marketing and tourism gurus, and competing politicians. The Weekly’s July 29 story, White Hot, claimed, The gallery is hoping The White Wedding Dress will push past the previous record set by its Golden Age of Couture exhibition in 2008, which attracted more than 75,000 visitors with an economic boost estimated at $9.4 million. The 2009 council study that came up with $9.4 million made four slips that can halve the “boost” to $4.7 million. The study has all visitors as full-paying adults, yet April 2009 council minutes show 35 per cent were children and pensioners. It is assumed day visitors spent $130, and overnight $260. One night, two adults and two children – $1040. Get real. It ignored Tourism Australia data showing 42 per cent of overnight stays are with friends and relatives, bypassing accommodation and food outlets. It overlooked the rate burden of additional administrative and infrastructure costs, and an indulgent $6 million annual loss attributable to related City Futures directorate units – market-

ing, tourism, capital, gallery and administration. The City of Greater Bendigo council is aware of the study’s slips or failed to check the study. Either way, council’s bad numbers form continues: Inconsistent Visitor Information Centre counts, discredited tramaround-the-lake data, fanciful O’Keefe trail benefits, wonky major events estimates, vague mall outlays, ignored multi-storey car park costs, and flavoured jail theatre claims. Council can do better than this. A reality check is necessary. Elastic council information influences then distorts resident, business and government opinion and investment decisions, and our rates. Ted Coleman, Strathfieldsaye
Stop this madness now Mr Baillieu PREMIER Baillieu’s true environmental colours are showing, or is it just his ignorance? First we had the destructive resumption of cattle grazing in Victoria’s Alpine National Park, second the impending attack on Melbourne’s Green Wedges, and now the rampant assault on what little is left of our Mountain Ash forests in the Central Highlands near Toolangi after the
Black Saturday bushfires. Forests are our great carbon stores and wet ash forests amongst the most efficient on the planet, storing up to 2000 tons of carbon per hectare. Young and regrowing ash forests are far less effective. Our forests are being sold for peanuts by VicForests, a government agency, an organisation heavily subsidised by you and me. The Toolangi forests in Melbourne’s water catchments have reduced water run off for up to 150 years after logging. What of biodiversity and its loss? These forests are the remaining habitat of the endangered Victorian faunal emblem, the Leadbeater’s Possum, principally endangered by habitat destruction. And for what?

Gillard instigate a wide inquiry into the potential excesses of the Australian media. This needs to be with particular focus on the dominance of the Murdoch Press. Murdoch’s News Limited, with its dominant 70 per cent share of Australia’s media outlets, has much to answer for in terms of its shameless proconservative political bias, often rabidly and infamously manifested by its self-promoting shock-jocks, as well as its tabloid, broadsheet and electronic outlets. The current level of political discourse favoured by the coalition and the negatively sensationalist hysteria of the Murdoch Press are truly a match made in heaven – both manage to plumb previously unsurpassed depths of moral relativity and outright dishonesty in the interests of mutually beneficial political expediency. Bring on the inquiries and let the vested interests squeal and squirm. Michelle Goldsmith, Eaglehawk

V I E W P O I N T opinion
Passion be praised
PLANS to turn the Beehive building into a commercial and residential “mecca” must be applauded. While there will be obvious heritage concerns, which can be dealt with, the plan has merit. The Beehive has been neglected. It could be one of Bendigo’s greatest assets. Instead, it sits there as a blight on Pall Mall, one of the prettiest streets in Australia. It’s not only the blistered paint and faded artwork that shows its tough life. The top level is a disgrace. Years of neglect by all and sundry have left the former Bendigo Stock Exchange section of the inside as nothing more than a pigeon haven, poop and all. The City of Greater Bendigo council, led by
with
PETER KENNEDY
Editorial Comment Don Goldsworthy, have done a valiant job in the past few years to rejuvenate its half of the top two storeys of the Beehive building, but it is too little and has taken far too long. Council, rightly or wrongly, has not seen allocating money to it as a priority. This is where private money should come in. Most of the non-street level section to the right of the stock exchange and Allan’s Walk is ripe for the picking. It is rundown, severely damaged and plagued with problems, but the bones of something beautiful are there.
The council obviously doesn’t have enough money to renovate in any respectable and acceptable time frame, so someone else needs to. Mark Coffey has turned some of the city’s rundown landmarks into stunning apartments and businesses. His record speaks for itself and he must be praised for having the passion and the gumption to take it on. But there is more to this than just a commercial opportunity, or a good use of an old building. This is an example of where Bendigo needs to go in the future. It is not
just a representation of the much-talked-about inner city, medium-density living, but almost of urban renewal. Bendigo’s CBD needs a boost. Hargreaves Mall’s redevelopment, anti-social violence and Walk Bendigo have left a bad taste in locals’ mouths. There is no doubt about it – the CBD is tainted. However, with ideas like this, the pendulum is swinging. Bendigo is blessed – we have these types of buildings, and we have people prepared to do something with them. Such a development would speed up other urban renewal projects, – such as Eaglehawk and Epsom – and provide a big boost to the region’s reputation.

GLENDA MILLARD tells a wonderful story about her own path towards becoming one of Australia’s most admired children’s book writers. It starts with a house full of books, and a family sitting quiet around the fire absorbed in reading, and winds its way through little episodes told with humour and grace. No wonder, when an editor found her first manuscript in a slush pile, that editor couldn’t resist. Millard has just published another joyous, slightly idiosyncratic picture book, For All Creatures. Illustrated in bold, busy style by Rebecca Cool, it is a hymn of praise – for all creatures great and small. Each page delights in the colour, the movement, the variety and sheer wondrous beauty (and oddness) of animals, birds and insects. Best known for the courageous Tishkin Silk books, Eaglehawk-based Millard has an uncompromising certainty that a child can and will cope with big and unusual words. Suitable for children as young as three, For All Creatures includes words such as dawdle and camouflage, nonchalant and fluke (that’s a baby echidna!). This polite, elegant, modest

woman turns out to be something of a revolutionary, throwing word-bombs into homes and igniting imagination fires. Millard has Jeff Kennett to thank for her writing career. She was sailing along, reasonably content, working for what was then the state-run gas and fuel company, when rumours went around that, with privatisation around the corner, the only workers who wouldn’t lose their jobs was the marketing department. “I’d left school at 15, and had no idea how to write a report,” Millard says, “so I enrolled in a course.” Her teacher, perceptively, told her she ought to be doing creative writing, an idea rather pooh-poohed by Millard. Practical woman that she is, she thought that was all fine and good, but how on earth would she make a living? So the next course she enrolled in was titled “Writing for Money”. But fate intervened again: this time, the writing teacher, to unblock some of those in the class who were finding it difficult, gave them an assignment that began, “Beneath an oak tree in the forest….” Millard’s effort so impressed her teacher she was encouraged

Photo: ROSEMARY SORENSEN to send it off to publishers, and now the plot gets really interesting. “I haunted Dymocks,” Millard says, “and narrowed it down to a publisher who does lovely books! “I really didn’t anticipate anything, just thought I’ll keep doing it.” That publisher was the doyenne of children’s publishing, Margaret Hamilton, and it was she who recognised in Millard’s writing something out of the ordinary.

2 The Happiest Refugee
The Haunted Heart
ELOISE lives in an English village. She is 18 and yearns for love. It’s 1838 and things just are not moving fast enough in the right direction. A new family moves to the area and Eloise becomes the centre of attention for the enigmatic and graceful son and the beautiful daughter. Things change fast, and Eloise is drawn into an emotional maelstrom of erotic fantasy. The tale is wholly original, and introduces some magnificent concepts. Never terrifying, but certainly scary, the tale traverses the world in Eloise’s bid for emotional and physical satisfaction. Descriptions of her attaining this are
“People say to me, why don’t you write adventure stories, things like Enid Blyton – these are stories I love reading but I’m not drawn to write them.” The use of difficult words, the quirky shorelines, the surprises at every turn of the page, “this was not the pattern people expected,” Millard says. “When I wrote Tishkin Silk, I realised it was all right to be me.” For All Creatures is published by Walker Books, $29.95.

graphic and engrossing. Told in first person, Haunted Heart gives a believable account of descending into the unknown, and a partial recovery into a whole new life in the new world. Then it twists again. Tania Donald is based in Melbourne and this is her first novel, though she does turn her hand to writing plays and sketches for theatre and radio. I must admit this is not my usual choice of style for a read, but I enjoyed my foray into 19th century erotic-goth-horror. I may even wander back into the territory again some day. – Steve Kendall

JAMES Halliday’s eyebrows turn up in the middle, and no doubt there are winemakers out there who are tempted to think him devilish at times. It’s his winery star-ratings that are eagerly awaited, a highly-sought-after tick of approval that can kick along a reputation very nicely. So it was with a sigh of relief and in some cases a prolonged “yeeeeees” that Bendigo’s winemakers, assailed by some pretty lousy weather in past seasons, received news that their approval rating remains high. Pondalowie Vineyards in Bendigo East was awarded their highest rating fivestar for a record seven consecutive years, and they also garnered five red stars for the third time. This is given to wineries that are not just good, but consistently so. Mandurang Valley, too, are toasting their success with four and a half stars, and a brilliant 94 out of 100 for their 2008 Old Vine. Wes Vine, who runs Mandurang with his family, says the region is really scoring well in Halliday’s Wine Companion, the top-selling guide in Australia. “We’ve been a strong brand for a while,” he says of Bendigo’s regional wines, “and while the increase in the number of wineries does make it harder in the marketplace, it also gives the region more weight. “The more good wines made here, the easier it is for us to promote it.” Wes started out making

wine as a hobby, back in 1976, using two old vineyards as the bulk of his fruit. It’s those old vines that created their first Old Vine, a blend of cabernet, shiraz and merlot. The older the vines, the more intense the flavour, he explains, but they are also susceptible to rot, so it’s difficult to know if you’ll get a yield in any given year. This year, with the enormous amount of rain early, the yields were down to about 20 per cent, so Wes is not expecting another Old Vine in the short term. But he’s keeping his fingers crossed that it will be a kind spring and summer. “It was 2004 before the conditions were right for our first Old Vine, and then it was 2008 when we made the next one,” he says. “We certainly won’t be making it in 2011.” Wes explains that smaller winemakers tend to stick with red wines because they are more reliable.
“There aren’t so many making white wines in this region, because it requires a higher investment so smaller family owned businesses find it more difficult to get into,” he says. Mandurang Valley does a riesling and semillon and even sav blanc, although they can’t rely on regional fruit for that at the moment. “We’ve been running odds and even years for the last decade,” he says of the crop-damaging weather. “So I’m hopeful, if the serious frosts stay away, we’ll have a good season.

Hard life on the streets
Irishtown was a rough and ready place when night fell
IN most communities, there is always a small percentage of people, who display negative antisocial behaviour. Unfortunately these characters can, and do, damage to the reputation of the whole, this was also the case with Irishtown. A German, Franz Gass, who lived at the Baker’s Arms Hotel at Irishtown found the problems that he faced in life were too great to cope with. As a result, in 1859 he committed an act of self destruction, as suicide was often referred to in the 19th century. The ready availability of cheap and often illicit alcohol from the small shanties, had many unpleasant consequences to the brazenly antisocial element who frequented these places. Drunkenness made respectable citizens question what and where were the police on Saturday night and Sundays? This same question has a contemporary corollary. One Irishtown local recording: A mob of wretches who fill the refreshment houses from Saturday evening till Monday morning, make a point of standing on the footpath and assaulting every Chinaman that passes.
dent had written to the council on behalf of a group of ladies regarding what he termed the ‘brewers nuisance’, which amounted to the dirty state of the pavements in front of their premises. Brewer’s waste was to be found on the walkways, gutters and roadways, this material, produced a rather unpleasant stench. The council resolved to create a by law that all shopkeepers be compelled to sweep and clean the footpaths in front of their establishments. The council’s Inspector of Nuisances would be responsible for the enforcement of the new by law. A German puddler, Anton Engisch, who had his puddling machine not far from where Caledonia Street is now, was in trouble for allowing his sludge to damage the roadway. Engisch’s machine was not far from where Thunder Street is now drawn through. On the hill to the north of Engisch’s machine the Tyson’s Reef Mine was located. During 1860 there were 1592 puddling machines operating across the Bendigo goldfield with a significant number in Irishtown.
DIRTY WORK: Anton Engisch’s puddling machine looked like this illustration. WITH
JAMES LERK Two or three will put out their legs, and another two will give a push, and over they go into the gutter and a laugh is raised among a score of wretches at the fun. Here is another of the wretches over with him and no sooner said than done; head first he goes into the gutter; and then this does not even contend them, for as soon as John {the name nearly always given to a Chinese by Caucasians} can pick himself up and run away, he is saluted with a shower of stones and gravel. And more than this, they do not confine their attacks to Chinamen. I saw an unfortunate German
all, the fiend who first struck him waited his opportunity and deliberately kicked him with the full force of a heavy boot three times on the head, and if two or three people who appeared to be passing had not begged them to spare him, they certainly would have left him dead on the ground. Sometimes in the late 1850s and early 1860s those tipplers who were the worse for drink were brought before the bench, because their antics had caught the attention of a passing off duty officer. Arthur Arthur, was violently assaulted in November 1859 three men and a woman Jane Tinker were subsequently charged. Henry Orth, an Irishtown resi-

In a stew over lamb plan
My new additions add spice to the daily duties
SOME time ago I mentioned the arrival of Nancy Drew the mystery ewe. The old girl is thriving in the paddock and has lost her sludgy green colouring. The colour came about by rolling around in the truck, so it was best our recent downfalls had washed it away. All of a sudden my flock has grown. The long-suffering Mrs Kendall heard of orphan lambs in need. These orphans have been separated from mum for various reasons and need to be hand fed. Roll up mug punter Steve. Now, each morning at 6.30am Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m struggling into jeans and jumper clutching bottles of lamb formula and heading for the shed. Our two orphans, Piglet and Lamb Chop caught on to the feeding regime pretty quick and have doubled in weight in the first 10 days. Of course, everything now revolves around the orphans. Feeding times rule our day, come last feed I am so tired itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s straight to bed. We both work, so come 8am the lambs are bundled
Funny the emotions a lamb will bring out
into the back of the car and we all head to Bendigo. Before you ask, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work in the Weekly workplace, they fit in quite nicely with Mrs K. There, a whole new bunch of surrogate mothers take over, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big fight who gets to feed the â&#x20AC;&#x153;babiesâ&#x20AC;?. Funny the emotions a lamb will bring out in women.
STEVE KENDALL ON LIFE
Mind you, I heard tell that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sharonâ&#x20AC;? (previously mentioned in my story about a hot spot in the MRI scanner) bought in some lamb shanks from Coles and showed them to Piglet and Lamb Chop. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not kind â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sha-
ronâ&#x20AC;?, or should I say Sue. How are the studs by the way? (Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll teach you to try to scare my lambs.) Of course, the fluffy orphans drew some attention, and last week we had people asking if there were any more lambs. As any farmer will tell you, orphan lambs can be more trouble than they are worth. Hence the availabil-
ity.
As it happened there were a couple more around, and Mrs K bundled them into our temporary pen in the shed. We were looking after them for the night before delivery to their new foster mum in the morning. Next day, the trip to Bendigo was fraught. Two adult (humans) and four lambs.
Mrs K on her own generally provides quite a din, but with the added cacophony of lambs on the move, it was quite a ride. Added to this, one lamb had managed during loading to relieve itself in both ways known to lamb and beast. Scared, or just plain malicious? Whatever the reason the noise was mingled with a distinctly farm-like odour. From the lambs that is. It was a relief to be dropped off outside the Weekly. Fresh air and silence. So now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re back to a manageable number, and weaning is due in the next couple of weeks. In a way Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be quite sad when they are out grazing the paddocks on their own, not needing the bottled lamb formula. I quite enjoyed my time as a livestock owner, up before dawn and seeing the stars and the new moon in all their glory. Somehow, I think I may just be having a few more orphans down the track. And I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll ever eat lamb roast again.

THE EYES HAVE IT
ENTERTAINED
BEN CAMERON Brooke Addamo aka Owl Eyes might be young, have big dreams and wield a prodigious talent, but sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also unsually patient. After a slightly stuttered beginning to her career, Addamo enjoyed her breakout year in 2010. Today, her enviable voice has been all over radio, either through vocal support for Aussie hip hopper Illy, on debut EP Faces, or new track â&#x20AC;&#x153;Raidersâ&#x20AC;?. Throw a support slot for The Wombats into the mix, and Addamoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s having quite the hoot. Central to her rise has not only been a self im-

THERE I was, crammed into Bendigo Art Gallery last Saturday with about a zillion others, at the Grand Opening of the sure-tobe-biggest-thing-since-slicedbread White Wedding Dress Exhibition. And there we were, listening to speeches about the artistic, fashion and historical significance of the white wedding dress from a myriad of dignitaries, fashionistas and art folk. And there I was, watching everyone smiling in agreement about just how important that one white dress is to a girl, on that one day in her lifeâ&#x20AC;Ś Gulp. White wedding dresses traumatise me. The thought of fluffy white tulle fills me with dread. Earlier this year I got married â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but managed to avoid â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;all thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201C; choosing an off-the-rack black and red number, that more mirrored one of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;bordello ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in From Here to Eternity, than anything remotely on display in those glass cases. While loving every minute of our nuptials and wedding festival â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and it was! â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I oh-so resented the amount of pressure that bubbled up from the bowels of the earth every time the words â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;wedding dressâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; were
posed hiatus, but the help of producer and mentor, Jan Skubiszewki, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a great musical connection and I love working with him, I feel safe,â&#x20AC;? she says. His connections led to her guesting on Illyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big hit of last year, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It Can Waitâ&#x20AC;?. Waiting is something the 20-year-old knows something about. Born in Perth but moved to Melbourne at age seven, she first appeared on Australian Idol back in 2007â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a remnant of what she calls her â&#x20AC;&#x153;dorky teenage phaseâ&#x20AC;?. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a memorable experience for Addamo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was quite strange and surreal,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was really young, I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say I was naive but when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re young you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know a lot about yourself or the industry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I got pushed around by a lot of people, in a lot of different directions, I got really confused.â&#x20AC;? Many teenagers would have been lured by the promise of fame, but Addamo took a different route.
uttered within earshot. For an ex-tomboy who never thought sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d get married, it was a bit much. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get me wrong. I love a wedding, but being a bride â&#x20AC;&#x201C; whoa Nelly! Amid my panic and rising sense of disconnection, I wandered around this exquisitelymounted exhibit (and it is â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it goes on for miles too), staring somewhat blankly at the couture, and reading (with interest) the info plaques that went with it. Thenâ&#x20AC;Ś There she was. My get-out-of-jail-free card: the RED WEDDING DRESS. Finally Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d stumbled upon a like-minded soul whose wedding dress also represented passion, colour, a free spirit and a wee bit of subversion. Plus she could wear the thing again after it was â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;all over red roverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;! And what a rebel this lady was. I stared with relief at a â&#x20AC;&#x153;rubycoloured silk-gauze mid-calf dressâ&#x20AC;? worn by one Monica Maurice who married in South Yorkshire, England in 1938. According to the catalogue notes, Ms Maurice was â&#x20AC;&#x153;an independent, unconventional womanâ&#x20AC;? with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;passion for racing cars
She took two years off. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really wanted to find myself, musically,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to find what came natural to me, not what people were telling me what I should be doing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s evolved into what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing now. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I worked out what I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be.â&#x20AC;? It was a mature decision Addamo made on her own. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went in there singing jazz covers and they wanted me to do pop music,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be stock standard, I wanted to be a true artist. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a wise decision of me to take those years off to discover who I was.â&#x20AC;? Thankfully she did, and the first taste off Faces, the gorgeousâ&#x20AC;&#x153;1+1â&#x20AC;?, validated that decision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think my music is predominantly pop but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got substance behind it,â&#x20AC;? Addamo says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The moniker (Owl Eyes) allows me to be a bit more creative.â&#x20AC;? Although now a favourite, â&#x20AC;&#x153;1+1â&#x20AC;? wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a personal
and flyingâ&#x20AC;?, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;until 1978â&#x20AC;? was the only â&#x20AC;&#x153;woman member of the Association of Mining Electrical Engineersâ&#x20AC;?. My kinda lady! It turned out I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only person in the room panicking - the conversations I heard around this exhibition were priceless. Everyone has a wedding story â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in the end the the genius of the show is its universality. The best I heard was from a woman who was becoming traumatised by Bendigoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s op shops. So far sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d seen the exact same dress sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d worn to her own ceremony, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;remainderedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in not one but three. She didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whether to feel flattered or battered. The real triumph though is how our community is embracing the exhibition. The Meadow Boutique opposite the Bendigo Art Gallery is displaying a stellar white dress covered in cheeky texta grafitti. But Bobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Boutique takes the (wedding) cake so far. Looming large over the northern end of Williamson Street, owner Sonia Brit has mounted a giant plush bunny head atop the hand-stitched quilted dress she wore to her

fave. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like the simplicity of mixing mathematics with something like love,â&#x20AC;? she laughs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was one of the first songs we (Addamo and Skubiszewki) wrote and I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure about it, I thought the lyrics were a bit too plain, but then it grew on me. Her post-Idol path echoes that of Lisa Mitchell, who has carved out her own career without a cover version in sight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She was an inspiration to me, because I was a bit bummed out by the Idol thing, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a stigma and I wondered if I was going to be taken seriously,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was really worried about that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lisa has paved a way for us to break out of that mould â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you can create something new, it shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter what your background is.â&#x20AC;?

Joining in a common cause
THE campaign in support of the proposal for a National Disability Insurance Scheme is gaining momentum, with a special morning tea at the Bendigo Town Hall this week. The DisabiliTEA event organised by local self-advocacy group Having A Say, was one of many held around the country on Tuesday. City of Greater Bendigo mayor Rod Fyffe, Member for Bendigo Steve Gibbons, Member for Bendigo West Maree Edwards and Senator Bridget McKenzie attended the Bendigo event. The Productivity Commission’s recently released report into disability care and support condemned the current disability support system as
NEWS • 25
www.bendigoweekly.com.au
“inequitable, underfunded, fragmented and inefficient” and recommended introducing an NDIS to ensure people got the vital support, equipment, therapy and care they needed to get on with their lives. Every Australian Counts campaign director and former New South Wales government Minister John Della Bosca said the events were significant. “For the first time in living memory everyone – people living with disabilities, carers, families service providers and advocates – have come together,” he said. “We have one goal. That is to make sure the Federal Government implements the Productivity Commission report and brings about an NDIS.”

In the steps of explorers
IT was 1593.8 kilometres, give or take a metre, but the self-named Mad Bastards decided it was fine to round it up. And so, Mick Ellis and John Esnouf walked 1600 kms in 50 days, from the infamous Dig Tree in Queensland to Port Melbourne, all in the name of â&#x20AC;&#x153;unfinished businessâ&#x20AC;?. The Mad Bastards are a group of Bendigo friends who walk together, not just your round the Kennington Reservoir-type walk, but long tramps that usually take a week. Their first such escapade was from Robe to Bendigo 10 years ago, a kind of re-enactment of the treks made by Chinese in the 1850s to South Australian ports then overland to the goldfields, in order to escape the racist tax on Chinese arrivals. Up to 22 people can set off on these walks, although itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more often a dozen or so and sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mere couple of hundred kilometres, like the Melbourne-to-Bendigo stroll, covering about 30 kms a day. John and Mick, however, are now officially the maddest bastards of the group. The idea first came to John about three or four years ago. He would get enthused, then cool off, thinking it was all a little too mad. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d put it on the backburner,â&#x20AC;? he says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;then last November, I decided to get serious about it.â&#x20AC;? This year is the 150th anniversary of the ill-fated attempt by Robert Burke and William Wills to cross Australia from south to north. Setting off from Menindee near Broken Hill in August 1860, it was April 21, 1861,

test â&#x20AC;&#x2122;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tag for a safer workplace tO say Kathleen Chadwick is something of a live-wire is an obvious understatement. especially when she is one of the only licensed female test and tag inspectors capable of inspecting your commercial or even household premises to ensure it meets all current regulations and provides a safe environment for your employees or family. the Occupational health and Safety Acts throughout Australia requires all portable equipment, appliances, electric tools, extension leads, power boards and portable residual current devices in commercial and industrial areas to be tested on a regular basis. Under the Victorian Oh&S Act (2004), an employer has a legal obligation to ensure that the premises and the plant at their workplace is safe and without risk to health (Section 21).
Is your workplace safe? Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t worry about Kath being intimidated by what was once exclusively male domains as she is quite at home testing equipment in workshops and factories as well as offices throughout the region. What about your home is it as safe as you think it is? Kath will gladly test all
leads for items such as electric blankets, heaters, lamps, exstension cords and the range of appliances power boards seem to attract. Kath can test items on site or you can drop your equipment into Kathâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s test â&#x20AC;&#x2122;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tag at 29d Piper Road, east Bendigo, phone 0415 471 828.

“Many firms are typically reactive ‘history writers’ acting as the government’s hand maiden. These guys provide their clients with the bare minimum,” Rob said. “Most firms do not visit or proactively call their clients, they do not make an effort to build lasting relationships with their clients, they do not offer a fixed price up front and they want to charge for every six minutes of time,” Garry said. Branches of some mid-tier firms along with sole practitioners, and multi-partner firms have all joined forces, giving the Proactive Accountants Network an initial combined annual turnover of more than $128 million. Stewarts Accountants centrally located at 141 View Street, phone 5442 2966 or alternatively view their website at www.stewartscpa.com.au or www.proactiveaccountants.net for more information.

GIZMO
BORDER COLLIE CROSS, BLACK/WHITE MALE, 1 YEAR
I am a vibrant, happy and outgoing dog. I love to play and socialize and am quite partial to a bit of human attention. I am an intelligent boy who learns quickly and I am pretty good on lead. I am an active boy but not super high energy. I still need to learn some more manners, but a little bit of training will go a long way. Playing with toys and fetching will be excellent ways to keep my mind busy and my body well exercised. JEEBUS
DSH, TABBY WHITE MALE, 1 YEAR
Jeebus is a little shy when you approach him but he does love his attention. Jeebus came as a stray so his history is unknown. Jeebus is gentle even though he seems shy and can be frightened, so he would be better suited to a quiet lifestyle. Jeebus is not Desexed but he will be once he is adopted. A reminder Cup Cake fundraiser day is on the 15th of August, Fundraising events such as cupcake day will ensure the society continues providing best possible inspectorate, animal shelter, veterinary, educational services and give the love, care and protection to so many animals each year.

Unnerving the cyclists eddie barkla
for space. T-intersections are always unnerving no matter where or when, day or night the question racing through the mind is: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Have I been seen?â&#x20AC;? There is always that moment of tension as the stopping distance of vehicles is so good these days a last second jump on the brakes will pull up the vehicle. The look up the road to the right by the driver quickly approaching toward the intersection always makes the heart leap as to â&#x20AC;&#x153;have I been seenâ&#x20AC;?, or â&#x20AC;&#x153;am I out of the line of sight and will be in front of the vehicle when they keep coming through the intersection?â&#x20AC;? The real one that is hard to fathom that happens more often than we could quote, is the vehicle that comes from behind drawing alongside with a left hand turn indicator on and veer to the left. They make a turn without checking if we are still on the inside of the vehicle. another really daunting thought that often crosses my mind is the amount of drivers texting messages as they pass. Thank God they keep a straight line while passing, as coming from behind we as cyclists are
Artwork: AMy GILLETT FouNDATIoN most vulnerable. What does all this mean and is it a complaint or just a whinge? after being a shared road user both as a driver and cyclist you come to appreciate that we can all be intimidating and unnerving to each other. Riding close to cars on my bike is just as unnerving for the motorist as it is for me. Keeping a straight line remaining as far as
left as it is practicable and reasonable to still be visible is prudent behaviour when sharing the road. I am sure as a cyclist there are just as many drivers wondering: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Has this rider seen me or not? They are not giving much space.â&#x20AC;? my motto is : â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do unto others as you would have them do to youâ&#x20AC;?. Looking to seeing you on the road soon, God willing.

EAGLEHAWK jumped to second on the Bendigo Football Netball Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Senior Football ladder, with a come-from-behind win against fellow top-four side Gisborne. The Borough replaced Gisborne in second spot after a se-esawing game at Gisborneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gardiner Reserve. Gisborne held a three-goal advantage at quarter time, but a six-goal-to-one second term saw the Borough up by two goals at the half. Three goals each in the third term gave
Eaglehawk a 10-point lead going into the final term. Eaglehawk kicked four goals to three in the final term to win 14.17.101 to 11.18.84. In the only other game of the split round, South Bendigo downed Castlemaine 20.17.137 to 6.3.39. This weekend, Eaglehawk takes on Castlemaine at Camp Reserve, South Bendigo plays Gisborne at Golden Square in the match of the round, Maryborough is at home to Kyneton, Sandhurst hosts Strathfieldsaye and Kangaroo Flat hosts Golden Square under lights from 6.30pm.
ladder takes shape
THE Bendigo Football Netball Leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Senior Netball ladder is beginning to take shape, after some defining games on the weekend. Third placed Gisborne accounted for fourth-placed Eaglehawk 57-40 in the first match of the split round on Saturday. South Bendigo (44) easily accounted for Castlemaine (19) despite the two being next to each other on the ladder. This week should be an easy week to pick winners, if games go according to plan. Top-placed Golden Square take on Kangaroo Flat, Second-placed Sandhurst face Strathfieldsaye, third-placed Gisborne takes on South Bendigo and Eaglehawk travels to Castlemaine.
ladY BraVes shine IT was the turn of the Lady Braves to shine in the SEABL on the weekend. The women defeated second-placed Dandenong 68-62 at Bendigo on the weekend. This week they host Albury Wodonga on Saturday and then travel to play against first-placed Knox on Sunday.
BraVes split MatChes
THE Bendigo Braves remain on top of the SEABL East Conference ladder despite splitting its two games on the weekend. The Braves defeated Ballarat 88-83 at home on Saturday, and went down to Knox 89-71 on Sunday. The Braves host Albury Wodonga on Saturday night.

Your horoscope Aries (Mar 20 - Apr 19):
You are likely to feel compelled to take on a major project requiring the use of your large muscles. If this is a simple alteration you have already planned and you can get it done very quickly, it will probably go fine. If otherwise, think again until Mercury goes direct on the 26th. On the weekend your reflexes are not at their best.
Taurus (Apr 20 - May 19):
Libra (Sep 23 - Oct 22): It is necessary that you give attention to an issue of control that threatens to split one or more of your relationships. Either one of you may be the one who is seeking power and it may be quite subtle. Step aside from attempting to get what you want through manipulation.
Leo (July 22 - Aug 21):
Your restless mind wants to move in a new direction. It will likely be related to contacting people at a distance, preparing to travel, seeking professional advice, or focused on education. You would rather plan a vacation than attend to problematic relationship issues at home. Who wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t?
Changes may be occurring in your primary relationship. One or the other of you is probably trying to hang onto what is familiar. Changes and growth must be allowed to happen or the relationship will become stale. Let things flow naturally. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t jump to conclusions or make problems bigger than they are.
Gemini (May 20 - June 20):
Virgo (Aug 22 - Sep 22):
You are tempted to make a moderately significant purchase and will probably do so. Then as the week moves forward you will reconsider the expense of it and decide you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really need the item anyway. When you return it, you might not be completely honest about why.
0508
Cancer (June 21 - July 21): Mars, the warrior, enters your sign this week and will be traveling with you for six weeks. This energy is especially helpful in defining our boundaries. Periodically we need to examine who we are and also who we are not. The sensitive Crab does not like a scene. Think about who has overstepped boundaries for three weeks and plan how you will protect yourself.
If you are not conscious, you could be pulled into schemes of manipulation or compulsive behaviors. Existing relationships could re-experience the pain of old wounds. You have a choice of whether to work it through or act it out in the same ways as the first time. You will be steadier at the end of the week.
Be careful of what you say and of whom you speak at the beginning of the week. By the 8th you may wish you had never opened your mouth. Others are especially sensitive and may misunderstand your intention. It is a challenge to soften a statement that has already been made.

I am a commuting cyclist and spend about 10 hours a week covering 200 kilometres getting to and from work across Bendigoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s city limits. There are many moments quite unnerving while sharing the road. The 80-90 kilograms of body and bike combined are no match for a tonne of metal on wheels, and there is no grounds for creating a confrontation as to who may have the right of way. Lying on the road being right does not make sense when broken bones and serious body damage may occur. Roundabouts where entering and exiting can be a challenge and quite a test to the heart. as a cyclist we are a bit slower to pick the gaps and get off the mark to enter the roundabout. Vehicles which are quick in acceleration can change the status of space around us very quickly and seem to be bearing down, testing our ability to get through safely. It is common practice for cyclists to fill the lane as bicycle lanes are not common in existing infrastructure, this is changing as new roundabouts have designated cycle lanes. Some motorists can be a bit pushy in wanting the same space. a metre matters to the cyclist and can be reduced down as little as 100mm when jostling
thunder still in it
THE Bendigo Thunder again came close to beating top of the ladder North Ballarat in their VWFL finals clash on the weekend. The Thunder went down to the Eagles by seven points in the first semi final. The Thunder was first to get on the scoreboard with a goal from Emma Grant, quickly followed with a second from Brea Hards. From then, Ballarat controlled the play. Despite leading by five points at the first break, the Thunder did not capitalise on the wind advantage in the first quarter, while Ballarat made the most of it in the second quarter, scoring 2.5 and keeping the Thunder scoreless. The Thunder was able to push back in the third quarter, keeping the Eagles scoreless and led into the final term by one point. Despite having the wind advantage the Eagles were unable to capitalise on their shots at goal and scored only one major. The Thunder, likewise, was unable to maximise on its inside 50s, scoring only points. Final scores were â&#x20AC;&#x201C; North Ballarat 4.11.35 to the Thunder â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 4.4.28. Thunder coach Russell Jeffrey said the team was now focussed on next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Preliminary Final against La Trobe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to take the loss today and learn from it,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As always we had some great players, Elizabeth Waters is always outstanding in the back line and today she really stepped up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We now have to focus on this Sunday against La Trobe, we went down to them by just four points in round one and then came back and bet them by 14 points in round eight, but when it comes to finals, it really is a whole new ball game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;La Trobe did well to take out Lalor, they will be keen to come out strong, we just need to play our game and capitalise on our strengths.â&#x20AC;?
Capricorn (Dec 21 - Jan 19): Social and romantic life is favored this week, particularly over the weekend. You may be mixing business and pleasure in a pleasant combination. This is a good time to discuss issues within a relationship because you are steady of mind and likely to be realistic, in relation to yourself as well as others. You intend to keep your promises.
Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21):
Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 17): You are happy to allow your partner or a special friend to plan the activities you share this week. This is a really good time to communicate, work things out together, and play. The partner is in a dominant position, so be sure you convey what is important to you and that your plans together are fair.
Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 20): Warning to those on diet and exercise programs: this week it is just too easy to break training. If you mean what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve promised to yourself, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go anywhere in which you would be in harmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s way. It is a time in which you feel more outgoing and extroverted. Social life is a pleasure.
Pisces (Feb 18 - Mar 19):
Aspects are especially favorable for fun. Your muse is present for creative activities. Love and social life are in a peak time. Activities involving your children will be positive and memorable for them. Near the 8th someone breaks a promise or goes back on his/her previous word. Maybe it is you.

Fast, furious Finland WEDDERBURN brother and sister rally duo Brendan Reeves and Rhianon Smyth have finished a fine fourth in class in Rally Finland, round eight of the World Rally Championship, at the weekend. Rally Finland is the Mecca of world rallying, and with an entry list of more than 100 cars, including all of the world’s best drivers, the action was fast and furious from the outset. Reeves’ main challenge came from Irishman Craig Breen and Estonian Egon Kaur. Both drivers had competed at Rally Finland previously, and with Reeves entering for the first time, he knew it was going to be a battle to take a victory. Kaur and Breen were just two of 15 other competitors battling out the WRC Academy, a six-round one-make series to find the world’s best driver under 24 years of age. All crews compete in identical Ford Fiesta R2s prepared by British-based MSport. Rally Finland began with three stages on Thursday evening and Reeves sat in second place at the overnight halt. Friday was a long and demanding day with crews completing eight forest stages, with Reeves settling into a good rhythm to finish the day in third overall. The final day of the event included a further six stages, but the day got off to a bad start for Reeves when a puncture on the first stage cost him more than three minutes. This dropped him back to fifth overall, but over the remaining five stages the tenacious Australian fought his way back, clawing more than 45 seconds off his nearest ri-

now places him equal second in the overall championship standings at the half way point of the six-round series, a good reward for his consistent driving in the first three rounds. The next event for the Australian duo is the Les Boucles Chevrotines in Belgium next weekend. The pair will drive a similar Fiesta R2 in the event and will use it as a practise for the next round of the WRC Academy, Rally Germany, the following weekend

Path to glory
A PROGRAM which provides an alternative pathway to careers in the sport and recreation industry is kicking major goals in Bendigo. The Sports Education and Development Australia program includes 15 students from Bendigo and across Northern Victoria united by a passion for sport and a desire to work in the sporting field. What’s different about the SEDA program is the students undertake a three-year tailored program that includes a Diploma of Sport Development geared towards helping the students achieve their sporting career goals. While completing their studies, students also have the opportunity to work on key events and programs with state sporting partners and learn directly from staff in the industry. As teacher Dean Young said: “It’s an opportunity to further their education in a sports-focussed curriculum with hands on experience”. This year’s Bendigo program will undergo a major expansion in 2012 to reflect the co-operation and support of Cricket Victoria, Football Federation Victoria and Melbourne Victory, AFL Victoria, Basketball Victoria (Country), Tennis Victoria and Netball Victoria. By increasing the number and variety of sports offered, SEDA will be able to provide more opportunities for people in the community to engage in a wider range of physical activities. SEDA will host an information night next Wednesday, August 10 at Bendigo’s RL Campbell Theatrette from 7.30pm. Students interested in being part of the 2012 SEDA program are urged to attend.

CAMERON McGlashan is a talented cricketer who firmly believes his future lies somewhere around sport. As part of the inaugural Sports Education and Development Australia Bendigo program, the talented teen gets to combine his passion for sport with his studies in a manner that’s already proven to be a winner.
N U G D E S U
In the first four years of the SEDA program, which provides young people with an alternative and practical pathway to university and/or a career in their chosen profession, more than 90 per cent of program graduates have landed on their feet at either university or in employment and apprenticeships. Cameron wants to be a teach-
e c n a r clea
er, most probably a sports teacher, and believes he would have struggled to make it through the traditional VCE program in his pursuit of his dream. “I’d probably see myself as having dropped out by now,” the 16-year-old Eaglehawk local said. Cameron first played open age cricket for the Eaglehawk B
Grade team as a 14-year-old. He said he felt motivated to achieve more as part of the small class of 15 students who shared a similar passion for sport. “You are in a room with people that love everything you do,” he said of the classes the SEDA students sit through at the Bendigo Cycling Club rooms at the Tom Flood Sports Reserve.
