Bendigo loses a little innocence BENDIGO awoke to shocking news on Tuesday morning, learning of the death of well-liked Bendigo newsagent Garry Angus. Mr Angus’ wife, Jenny, found her 49-year-old husband dead in his Pall Mall business the night before. On Wednesday, 46-year-old Antony John Duguid was charged with Mr Angus’ murder.

Bendigo Ahead

By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

CENTRAL Victoria will boom on the back of the introduction of a carbon tax in Australia, according to a prominent Bendigo company director. “The carbon tax has already had a positive impact on what we’re doing,” Australian Turntable Company and Eco Villages Worldwide director Paul Chapman said.

Carbon tax a golden opportunity

“Businesses like ours, which have already taken the right steps, which are already set up to do it, are able to capitalise on the new business model which is all around the world. “Bendigo has the extraordinary opportunity to capitalise on globalisation.” Mr Chapman’s Eco Villages Worldwide, a subsidiary of ATC, designs and manufactures “sustainable” housing.

Based in Kangaroo Flat, the company produces low-energy modular housing, designed to respond to the increasing worldwide demand in remote or disaster-hit ares, as well as in fast-growing urban areas. The company manufactures modular buildings for Australia, but exports its expertise to projects across the world. “From a business perspective, the

demand is there,” Mr Chapman said. “From a manufacturing perspective, the carbon tax is not good for costs, but from a marketing perspective, because we are making buildings that reduce energy use, it’s good for us. “In the past few months in particular, our inquiries have been up a lot.” Mr Chapman began in hospital-

ity before setting up the Australian Turntable Company with his family. He is a member of the Bendigo Inventor Awards committee, and is a strong advocate for Bendigo as an innovation hub. He said developments in Bendigo, such as the building of the new hospital, will open up more opportunities for green-technology businesses in the region. “I am finding that the mindset (about Bendigo) has changed,” he said. “Now we’re ‘not far from Melbourne’, and ‘a good place to be’.”

the

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, October 21, 2011

BENDIGO’S Easter Festival has suffered another blow, with organisers having to cut it back to a three-day event to cut costs. Next year’s festival will be held on Good Friday, and Easter Saturday and Sunday. The end result could mean the popular brass and pipe bands could miss the main parade, which will be held on Easter Sunday. Major band competitions are held each Easter Saturday and Sunday in Ballarat and Melbourne, with most local bands attending. Earlier this year, former festival president Simon Mulqueen said the festival and the parade “lacked zing”. City of Greater Bendigo mayor and festival committee chairman Rod Fyffe acknowledged some in the community would not be pleased with the decision.

“The community need to understand that the Bendigo Easter Festival is run on an extremely tight budget that relies heavily on more than 600 volunteers,” he said. “The festival doesn’t receive any funding from the state or federal governments and re-

mat,” he said. However, that doesn’t seem the case, with representatives from bands first learning about the changes the day before they were announced, in a story at www.bendigoweekly.com.au. Golden City Pipe Band drum major, and well known

Bendigonian Chris Earl said the bands weren’t consulted, and were shocked with the move. “A number of bands in the region will be forced to make the difficult call on whether to represent Bendigo at national competition or commit to a new-format Bendigo Easter Fair that has appeared without consultation or prior advice,” he said. “Players in local brass and pipe bands could be robbed of performing before their biggest

audience of the year. “The Bendigo Easter Festival should be looking to involve more community bands from country Victorian communities, not reducing community participation in the city’s showcase event. “The sound and spectacle of more bands in the Easter parades would certainly help add zing and a fair bit of zest as well.” Mr Earl said the decision was a wrong one. “For more than a century, Bendigo has blended the most important festival on the Christian calendar and a large community celebration,” he said. “If the Bendigo Easter Festival is to become a three-day celebration, respect the sanctity of Good Friday and Easter Sunday morning – start the event on Saturday and finish with bands, floats and Sun Loong on Easter Monday.”

Duguid remanded

Friday, October 21, 2011 – Bendigo Weekly

By BEN CAMERON

A BENDIGO man charged with the murder of news-agent Garry Angus will reappear in court early next year. Antony John Duguid, 46, made a brief twominute appearance in the Bendigo Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday afternoon, after he was arrested at 8am that day. He did not apply for bail and was remanded in custody to appear again on February 22. Mr Duguid was charged on Wednesday with the murder of Mr Angus, 49, in his Pall Mall newsagency on

www.bendigoweekly.com.au

Monday night. Homicide Squad Senior Sergeant David Snare said police believed Mr Angus was killed sometime between 9pm and 11.30pm. Police and emergency services arrived at the scene to find Mr Angus dead inside the building, after his wife called police when she discovered her husband’s body. Sen Sgt Snare said it wasn’t out of the ordinary for Mr Angus to be at work so late at night. Tributes have flooded in for the popular newsagent and racehorse owner. Mr Angus’ emotional

daughter, Belinda, remembered her father as a man with a heart of gold. A friend of Mr Angus told 3BO Garry would have had no concern about being at the newsagency so late in the evening. “He was always in there and he worked late,” he said. “He never really had (safety) as a concern.”

Drew’s royal fanfare A BENDIGO Senior Secondary College music student will play for the Queen next week. Drew Schultz has been invited to play in a seven-piece jazz ensemble performing at an official Government House function for Queen Elizabeth II, next week. Drew was invited by the Performing Arts Unit of the Department of Education and Early Childhood Development to represent BSSC in the ensemble, showcasing excellence in Victorian State Schools. Drew began his music studies at Kennington Primary school and continued through Bendigo South East College to BSSC this year. Drew’s father, Paul, was full of praise for the school. “I think this opportunity is a reflection of the excellent education framework we have in our state school system here in Bendigo,” he said. “Opportunities for Drew were provided through his school teachers and the Bendigo Instrumental Music Program along with the wonderful choice of subjects at BSSC and ongoing encouragement from his teacher Matt Pankhurst”. Drew has been involved in the previous two Victorian State School Spectaculars in the 80-piece Orchestra; 2010 Shine On and recently in September this year in 2011 Show Time.

Lifeline for carers

By ANTHONY RADFORD

A BENDIGO family who cannot find respite for their severely autistic teenager have welcomed a State Government plan to fund new services. In October 2009, the Bendigo Weekly published an emotional letter from Carolyn and Mick Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Sullivan. The Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Sullivan family had just been through a lot. Then eight-year-old Connor had just gone into remission from leukemia. However, the family was facing another great challenge. Then 14-year-old Holly has severe autism and requires around-the-clock care. Her condition has deteriorated with the onset of adolescence and she has become mentally and physically unmanageable. Despite all this, the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s medical fraternity seemingly threw up its hands and could not provide the family with the support, respite or solution it needed. The article created attention, and some respite was given, but, almost two years on, Mrs Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Sullivan said longer-term respite was no closer, and the Department of Human Services,

and other medical services, still had no solution. Community Services Minister Mary Wooldridge last week announced $41 million of funding to set up new, innovative and flexible disability respite services across the state. Mrs Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Sullivan said the funding was a good start. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will be a very promising step in the right direction for improving the lives of those

for between $15 and $20 per night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not an option in Bendigo as it does not exist.â&#x20AC;? Mrs Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Sullivan said it was important the funding set up multiple respite facilities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Bundaberg, they have one respite home for 5 to 18 year olds and one for those 18 years and over. And in other towns there are respite homes for short stay and others for longer stays,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our daughter recently suffered from psychosis due to withdrawal from long-term antipsychotic medication. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could not get her admitted into psychiatric care in Bendigo as she was not 18. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many others have faced this situation or similar. Our region desperately needs a psychiatric wing dedicated to the care of children and young adults and funding such as this could change this deplorable situation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Submissions end on November 10, so the time to act is now. Bendigo could be the jewel in the crown for those who suffer from a mental illness and or profound disability. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ignorance and despair could be a thing of the past.â&#x20AC;?

This will be a very promising step in the right direction for improving the lives of those with a profound disability or mental illness. with a profound disability and/ or mental illness in Victoria,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Support for this long-suffering group of individuals has always been nothing short of pitiful. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With no other option available, many have been forced to relinquish their loved ones into the care of the state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Other options include placement in a nursing home, or caravan park/motel unit. These options are inappropriate and highly distressing for children and young people with disabili-

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am surprised at how often I have to explain to people in this region that there is nowhere for our daughter to go now, parttime, full-time or for even a few hours. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is ironic that under government guidelines, families such as ours are entitled to a break from our daughter for approximately 63 days per year in out-of-home respite accommodation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Towns like Geelong, Ballarat and Wodonga, just to name a few, provide this out-ofhome respite accommodation

Mrs Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Sullivan said the funding could be a long-awaited lifeline for parents and carers such as herself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My husband and I care for our daughter full-time as school is no longer an option due to her degree of mental instability,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The plan will contain information on activities aimed at increasing community knowledge and peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likelihood to take personal action to prevent violence and address it appropriately. The strategy is also aimed at increasing the competency of council staff to prevent, recognise and manage violence against others appropriately. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is an important project and residents can register their interest in this project by contacting councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Strategy Unit on 5434 6148 or by email to strategy@ bendigo.vic.gov.au,â&#x20AC;?

THE City of Greater Bendigo council is continuing its stance against violence by developing a Violence Prevention Plan for the city after an alarming rise in the amount of violent incidents. Mayor Rod Fyffe said violence is a community problem and he is alarmed by the rising incidence of family and other violence in Greater Bendigo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the 2010-11 financial year local police responded to 753 family violence incidents in Greater Bendigo â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a rise of 79 per cent compared to the number of incidents reported in the 2006-07 financial year period,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe these figures are unacceptable and by developing the Violence Prevention Plan we hope to identify how the City of Greater Bendigo can help prevent violence from happening in our community in the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 2010, Greater Bendigo councillors signed a policy statement

Pressure builds on minister

BANK ON IT: Stephanie Burton with Saver Plus Consultant Sam Taylor.

Explain cuts: Educators

Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

THE Victorian government will release a report into VCAL funding, following pressure from the education sector. The Bendigo Weekly reported last month that Bendigo TAFE and Bendigo Senior Secondary College were part of a statewide protest against cuts to the administration component of funding for the Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning. Educators involved in VCAL had supplied information to researchers at the University of Melbourne, but were not given access to the resulting report before the cuts were announced, without warning. At that time, the education department said the report was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;policy documentâ&#x20AC;? which would not be made public. A week later, however, a spokesperson for education Minister Martin Dixon, said that decision was under review. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is the ministerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intention to consult with the department and stakeholders on releasing the report,â&#x20AC;? the spokesperson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is consistent with established report processes.â&#x20AC;? Victorian Association of State Secondary Principals president Frank Sal confirmed this week that the VCAL report will

Mr Sal said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be interesting to see whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in it, but it hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t arrived yet.â&#x20AC;? Mr Sal said the information supplied had pointed to the need for an increase in administration funding, not a cut.

â&#x20AC;˘ Bendigo Senior Secondary Col-

lege, one of the schools which will be affected by the VCAL cuts, was this week named as one of three national school finalists in the School Pathways to Vocational Education and Training category of the Australian Training Awards.

MORE than 120 Bendigonians have benefited from Havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Saver Plus in the past year. Saver Plus is Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest matched savings program and has become so big it has re-opened recruitment in Bendigo and Haven is looking for new participants. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re recruiting again, Saver Plus will continue to make a positive difference by building participantsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; money management skills,â&#x20AC;? Havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sam Taylor said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Participants in Greater Bendigo have saved over $25,000 and have used their matched savings to help pay for laptops, school uniforms and sports fees.â&#x20AC;? Saver Plus helps people on lower incomes to strengthen their financial skills and develop

a savings habit. The program has reached more than 11,000 Australians, matching their personal savings dollar for dollar, up to $500, to help pay for educational costs for themselves or their children. Research shows 87 per cent of past Saver Plus participants continued to save at the same rate or more two years after completing the program and reported greater life satisfaction with an ability to control their finances and reduce debt levels. Kangaroo Flat ANZ branch manager Joshua Gladstone said his branch was behind the program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The 2011 Saver Plus research confirms the positive outcomes of this program,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Saver Plus was developed by ANZ and the Brotherhood of St Laurence in 2002.

To be eligible to join Saver Plus participants need to: â&#x20AC;˘ Be at least 18 years old; â&#x20AC;˘ Hold a Health Care or Pensioner Concession card; â&#x20AC;˘ Have some form of regular income from work; and â&#x20AC;˘ Be a parent or guardian of a child at school, or attend vocational education themselves.

Stats show anti-social behaviour on the decline

Streets ahead By ANTHONY RADFORD

BENDIGONIANS are becoming better behaved on the streets, with a dramatic drop in the number of fines for anti-social behaviour. City of Greater Bendigo council figures revealed the number of fines police issued last financial year for consumption of alcohol and urinating, excreting or vomiting more than halved. In 2009-10, police issued 211 fines for

drinking alcohol in public. That dropped to 96 last financial year. In 2009-10, 89 fines were issued for urinating, vomiting or excreting in public. Last financial were only 28 fines were issued. Bendigo Police Inspector Wayne Barclay put the drop down to good behaviour. “There are a couple of reasons for these drops,” he said. “The main one is people are behaving

themselves around the nightclub precinct.” Insp Barclay said more police on the beat in Bendigo would help keep late-night revellers on their best behaviour. All up, anti-social fines and miscellaneous fines such as food safety breaches were well down last financial year, netting council only $69,418 from 143 breaches. In 2009-10, council received $98,274 from 338 such breaches.

In other council fines, Bendigonians coughed up $747,000 for 14, 234 parking fines last financial year, up $70,000 and 1000 fines from the previous financial year. However, the amount of animal control fines dropped over the municipality in 201011. Council received $262,000 from 1219 animal control fines in 2009-10 and $241,000 from 1116 fines last financial year.

Golden Gurus shine By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

A progrAm aimed at reversing the decline in the number of people volunteering across the community was launched in Bendigo this week. golden gurus celebrates “the quiet achievers, who are major achievers,” chairman of the Bendigo Volunteer resource Centre paul Kirkpatrick said.

“We know that the number of people in our community aged from 60 to 65 is set to explode in the next few years and these are people who have skills that can be passed on.” mr Kirkpatrick quoted a monash University study that showed participation numbers in volunteer work dropping by seven per cent to 31 per cent in the past three years. The golden gurus pro-

gram is funded by the federal government to partner people over 50 with community organisations through the Volunteer resource Centre. They receive training and participate in an ambassadors program, mentoring organisations and small businesses. At the launch, the resource Centre announced its first two ambassadors, David Wright and Vicky matthews.

“They will be helping us to promote the concept of golden gurus, and encouraging people to get involved,” manager of the centre Helen Yorston said. “We hope we will have many people come forward to volunteer as mentors, and we are inviting community organisations and businesses who feel they need support to contact the centre.”

Concert is packed with talent ANNE Conway will be the headline act at a special concert at the Bendigo rSL on Sunday. peter Sheahan’s Walk Up Afternoon of Entertainment will also feature some of the city’s best-known performers. Nicole Harriage, Leigh Bice, olive Bice and Bendigo Bill will join mr Sheahan and others at a concert to raise money for Bendigo Health’s palliative Care auxiliary. The concert runs from 2pm to 6pm at the Havilah road venue. Entry is $10.

Councillor tells of Borough’s library woes

Unhappy chapter RESIDENTS of Eaglehawk believe they are being pushed to the back of the queue for improved library services. “This time last year we were asking for the hours to be increased,” City of Greater Bendigo Eaglehawk Ward councillor Peter Cox said. “They promised a survey of readers, but that hasn’t happened, and something needs to be done.” Eaglehawk Library, part of the Goldfields Library Corporation, is housed in a room of the historic Mechanics Institute, alongside the Town Hall. It opens from 9am to noon on Fridays. Cr Cox met with a group at a cafe in Eaglehawk this week, in response

HISTORIC: The Mechanics Institute building in Eaglehawk. to concerns expressed at his recent monthly residents’ forum. The group decided to circulate petitions calling for longer opening hours as the “first priority”. “All we really need immediately is to have more hours,” one of the women at the meeting said. “There is very little that is needed in terms of in-

frastructure, we don’t need more books or more shelving, that’s not an issue.” Another woman, who was part of an earlier campaign in the Borough for more library hours, said Eaglehawk residents were disadvantaged. “Everything in Eaglehawk, you have to fight and fight for,” she said. “We have to stop us be-

Bendigo Day Surgery Partner in Medial Excellence

getting to know usâ&#x20AC;Ś How many Operating Theatres are there at Bendigo Day Surgery? There are 3 state of the art operating theatres at BDS. What happens in the Operating Theatre? In the operating theatre patients are transferred on to an operating table where they receive their anaesthetic (if required). While this is occurring the nurses are setting up the sterile equipment for the procedure. This is a very important part of the procedure as it prevents infections. During the operation there is a nurse assisting the anaesthetist, a nurse assisting the surgeon, and another nurse circulating to care for patient and assist where required. What type of staff work in the Operating Theatres? In the operating theatres we have registered nurses, enrolled nurses, theatre technicians, and sterilising technicians. What sort of training do these staff members need? Registered nurses currently train in University to obtain a degree in nursing and enrolled nurses attend TAFE to obtain their diploma of nursing. There

MISSION: Sheryl Mackley. Photo: garry PatersOn

are also specialist operating theatre and anaesthetic courses available to nurses which many of the BDS staff have completed. Theatre technicians and sterilising technicians are required to undertake specialized training before commencing their positions. What equipment is used in the Operating Theatre? An anaesthetic machine, patient monitoring, operating table, theatre lights, diathermy machine and stock trolleys. Examples of the other equipment available at BDS are; microscopes, liposuction machine, camera and TV monitor towers for arthroscopies and laparoscopies, and the ultrasound machine for removing cataracts. We have recently purchased

gynaecology equipment which allows us to perform the most current procedures for the treatment of heavy bleeding and permanent contraception. How are the Operating Theatres kept so clean and sterile? All equipment and floors of the operating theatres are cleaned between patients as well as a floor to ceiling clean at the end of each day. Staff are regularly updated on infection control procedures and the facility is audited 3 times a year to ensure compliance. How do I find out more about Bendigo Day Surgery? We can be contacted by telephone on 5444 3533 or you can visit our website www. bendigodaysurgery.com.au

HAVE you got wool? Well, Bendigoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sheryl Mackley wants to get her busy fingers on it all. After a friend from church tipped her off about the great work being done by Mission Without Borders recently, Mrs Mackley is on a mission of her own to crochet as many blankets as possible, for those less fortunate, in countries

such as Bosnia, Romania and the Ukraine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so lucky in Australia, we have so much,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we get cold, we just turn up the heating, but people in these countries have nothing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hear stories of families where their lounge room is also their bedroom. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to do my bit... it

gets to minus 30 degrees in some of these countries.â&#x20AC;? The self-confessed crochet-aholic has been putting together blankets for the past four months and is keen to ramp up her productivity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to create as many as I can,â&#x20AC;? she said. Contact Mrs Mackley on 5447 2114 if you want to donate.

Hilux Heroes Precision Driving Team. The team has been one of the biggest attractions for many years at the Adelaide, Brisbane, Hobart, Sydney, and Melbourne Royal Shows. The bike boy and performing circus dogs will also be popular, as will Tubby the robot, the rides, the

Full details of the show are at www.bendigoshow.org.au, with admission for adults $15, pensioners and students $14, children $6 and a one-day family pass $35.

Funding coup THE State Government made two expected funding announcements in Bendigo this week. Premier Ted Baillieu announced details of the expected $3 million funding for the Sandhurst Theatre project at the former Bendigo jail. A few days later, Deputy Premier Peter Ryan used Bendigo Show week to announced the details of the $2 million for the Prince of Wales Showgrounds promised during last year’s election campaign. Labor Member for Bendigo East Jacinta Allan welcomed the theatre support for what she said was a Labor project. “With Labor sup-

port, this exciting project for Bendigo will now go ahead,” she said. “During 2010, I worked hard with Principal of Bendigo Senior Secondary College, Dale Pearce, to secure

project for Bendigo on the map,” she said. “Securing the funds to build a new theatre for the school and the community has been one of my top priorities for Bendigo.” Mr Baillieu said the 1000-seat theatre would be a boon for Bendigo.

“Economic modelling indicates the development will create 56 new jobs, while the construction phase is expected to generate 50 on-site jobs and 71 jobs in supporting industries. The project will also boost Bendigo’s emerging status as a regional provider of quality education and associated venues, arts and cultural activities.” Mr Ryan said the showgrounds funding would towards the next stage of the Bendigo Exhibition Centre development. The project involves the construction of a 6,150 square metre pavilion to be used for the 2010 Sheep and Wool Show and indoor equestrian events.

Level playing field needed for speed cameras WHILE watching A Current Affair the other night it was interesting to hear Victoria Police state they allow a tolerance of plus three kilometres per hour on a mobile speed camera and plus 2kp/h on a fixed speed camera. This is a very interesting fact because, unless things have changed, this is the tolerance that the cameras are at when sent for certification. In other words they are not as accurate as the police would like you to believe. Taking all this into account means you are not given any allowance as they have stated, only what the camera is certified at. Surely if the government wishes to keep its credibility it must change the Australian Design Rules from where it is acceptable for speedometers to be produced with a plus or minus factor of 10 per cent to one per cent so everyone is then on a level playing field. Robert K Smallpage, Huntly

Confused in White Hills WHAT confuses me, is the apparent low state of the American economy. When I look at their business interests in other countries, which include such projects as Disneyland, Sea World, supermarkets, films, television shows, newspapers, manufacturing, insurance and so many other interests that I have not mentioned, why is that country so badly in financial remission? Usually American businesses rely on their overseas commitments, charge a capital utilisation fee of 15 per cent or higher on the

total assets of their investments, plus a large proportion of the yearly profits. With that in mind I wonder whether the USA has deliberately induced the present downturn in the economy for their own devious reasons. Perhaps a more educated person may be able to explain this confusing dilemma I find myself unable to understand. Ashley Young, White Hills

Call to comment I AM writing to encourage local CFA volunteers to comment on the State Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new Green Paper, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Towards a More Resilient and Safer Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. The Green Paper raises for discussion significant changes in the way Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency agencies are organised, so it is extremely important that emergency service volunteers have their say on what is proposed and how best our services can be supported and co-ordinated to benefit all Victorians. The Green Paper proposes formalising an â&#x20AC;&#x153;All Hazards/All Agenciesâ&#x20AC;? approach, recognising CFA Brigades also respond to floods, rescues, road accidents, industrial incidents and more. It also discusses; a statewide body to oversee all emergency services, new ways to encourage volunteerism, expanding the Fire Services Commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s role to include other large scale emergencies, co-locating different emergency organisations, joint training standards and a potential top-level amalgamation of emergency services.

Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency capabilities would not function without volunteers on the front line and in senior incident management roles, so we must have our say. The Green Paper suggests changes at the top level, but we can also talk about what works best at the community level. It is Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency services volunteers who

This allows approximately 17 seconds for a vehicle to accelerate from zero to 90km/h - that is if the north bound traffic has actually slowed to 90km/h. Will this be like other

dangerous intersections in Bendigo, ie Myrtle and Hargreaves St, where deaths needed to occur before VicRoads acts. The City of Greater Bendigo council is largely to blame, not for its poor planning in the past, but its consistent failure to act on those plans. Of course these matters are no longer of any consequence to council as the responsibilities now lie solely with VicRoads.

v i e w p o i n t opinion

email: letters@bendigoweekly.com.au

Funding needed tWO quotes from City of Greater Bendigo mayor and Bendigo Easter Festival chairman Rod Fyffe in the story on page two of today’s Weekly are concerning. Firstly: “this decision has not been taken lightly and we have consulted with all of the festival’s stakeholders and sponsors who have all agreed to the new format.” Cr Fyffe is talking about the decision to change the city’s historic Easter festival from four days to three. the move means the popular pipe and brass bands may not be able to march in the gala parade, which will now be held on Easter Sunday. that’s because two major national competitions are held on Easter Saturday and Sunday at Melbourne and Ballarat, and they have been for a long time. Each Easter, band members rush to the competitions on and arrive home in time to march in the torchlight Procession, before rushing off to compete again on Sunday, and arriving home for the Monday parade.

Editorial Comment When www.bendigoweekly.com. au broke this story on Wednesday, it became clear very quickly bands were unaware of the changes, which flies in the face of Cr Fyffe’s quotes. hopefully this is just an oversight and not another example of council “consultation” that in the past has overlooked some of the most important players. the second quote is perhaps more of a concern: “the festival doesn’t receive any funding from the state or federal governments,” Cr Fyffe said. What the heck is going on here? this is supposed to be Bendigo’s premier event.

It brings millions of dollars into the community, and gives locals an excuse to spend and entertain. While events at places like the art gallery attract tourists, and are good for the local economy, the festival is entertainment for locals, and gives them a chance to get out and support the community that supports them, as well as spend money. this week, the State Government announced it would spend $3 million on the Sandhurst theatre proposal, and $2 million on a new shed at the Prince of Wales Showgrounds. Both projects are important, worthy and worthwhile, but surely a government that can find $30,000 to put towards a $100,000 public viewing deck concrete slab at the Bendigo Racecourse can find money for the most important event on the city’s calendar. that, of course, assumes the council has applied for funding in the past. If it hasn’t, that is even more concerning.

What constitutes a failure? Is having a go worth some sort of recognition or has our society morphed into a ‘winner takes all’ situation where losers outnumber winners? these are the questions I’ve been asking, and asked, after some recent media reports that include the reference ‘failed political candidate’ to describe people who have stood for parliament, but not been successful. I count myself in that category, twice over, but have never viewed the fact I did not win as being a failure. as a community I believe we should acknowledge the efforts of people willing to put themselves forward to represent the rest of us, supposedly with a view to wanting to make a positive difference. as a candidate, one is expected to work harder and longer than ever before, an often thankless task that involves massive amounts of time away from your family, an incredible amount of focus and effort, a reduction in income (in some cases to zero), all the while having

your life laid bare for anyone and everyone to scrutinise. It’s also an incredibly exciting rollercoaster ride, and one you seek to undertake of your own volition with the knowledge it is a tough gig.

Partner in Medical Excellence

“Some recent media made references to a ‘failed political candidate’” resent being labelled a failure simply because they did not win. a candidate’s brief is to do their absolute best and to leave nothing in the tank come election day. No “what ifs” as a few wise politicians have said to me over the years. there would be an outrage if australians labelled an athlete or team that wins a silver medal at next year’s London Olympics a failure. and a racehorse beaten in a photo finish for the Melbourne Cup could hardly be termed a failure. I took part in a really en-

thought of the premise before he asked, but in our collective of three or four, none of us thought the term appropriate. For what it’s worth, I don’t believe elections should be viewed as something to be won or lost. People win lotteries and raffles where skill and effort are forsaken for chance and luck. But any athlete worth their weight knows that it takes a lot of hard work to succeed. Likewise, election success must be earned, and so, too, respect. pk@bendigoweekly.com.au

FOODfossickers

Family market RECENTLY, the Bendigo Weekly reported discussions about extending the monthly Community Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market into the Hargreaves Mall and possibly creating a dedicated childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market. Well, Bree McMahon says that idea has already been bubbling away quite happily, and is set to move up a notch. Bree first set up a childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market in Bendigo about a year ago. That became Kids Market Central Vic, and extended almost immediately to Castlemaine and Rochester. She runs them every two or three months in each site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As my own children grew, I found I needed to sell off things they had grown out of but which

were too good to throw away,â&#x20AC;? Bree says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We started at the Bendigo District RSL but it grew too big for that, doubling in size quickly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve discovered thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a real need for it, something that people are calling for.â&#x20AC;? Earlier this year, she began contemplating adding food to the range of stalls, particularly looking at organic and preservative-free products, to cater for children with allergies. An immediate reaction to adding this in to the market fare has convinced her this is the way to go. In the next Bendigo Kids Market, which will be on December 3 at Liborius Centre, Panton Street in Eaglehawk, at

least five stalls will be selling jams and preservatives especially for children. Bree says she doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready yet for a weekly, or even a monthly event pitched at kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I found thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a need for it so often,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also because many of the stallholders are work-at-home mums, and they canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford to have a stall each week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This works well, but maybe it could expand in the future, to compliment the well-established farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; market.â&#x20AC;? She says she tries to make the market more of a family day out, providing things for kids to do and showbags, with fundraising for charities as well.

The Little Refugee

Anh Do and Suzanne Do Allen & Unwin, $24.99 IT was Anh Doâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personality, his optimism and humour, that made his autobiography, The Happiest Refugee, such a popular book. Turning it into a book for kids might seem a bit opportunistic, and the slightly daffy looking little boy on the cover

of The Little Refugee is a worry too (illustrations by the very experienced Bruce Whatley). But told simply, the story is strong, and in a complex world, where so much is thrown at kids that is dark and scary, this picture book will be welcomed by parents. The message is clear, but sincere: difference can cause sadness, success brings happiness. The success of the young Anh

It is easy to read, in the sense that it moves swiftly, and uses sentences that are simple enough. But there is nothing simple about what Barnes is telling the reader, or inviting us to consider.

Fuel up your body What you eat before and after your exercise can quickly determine how much energy you will derive from your exercise. It is not much fun exercising when you feel flat because you lack energy. Likewise, failing to eat appropriately after your exercise can leave you feeling tired and lethargic for the next day. So have a light meal or snack an hour or two before exercise, preferably something low fat, low GI and with a small amount of protein. Here are some suggestions: Low fat yogurt and a piece of fruit Handful of raw nuts and fresh fruit Berry smoothie with a scoop of whey protein powder Regular training sharply increases the need for energy, protein and many micro nutrients.

HIGH NOTE: Seniors sing everything from The Ramones to Coldplay. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN A GROUP of talented Central Victorian seniors have spent time with Australian musical royalty. The Forever Young Choir, a seniors choral group, took Bendigo by storm in the presence of former Seekers member Athol Guy. The choir, with the help of Girton Grammar music students, brings together 53

singers aged from 61 to 90. Laura Dusseljee, head of Girton’s junior school music program, dreamt for many years of recreating the young@heart concept from America in Bendigo. She saw the possibilities, she wanted to create dreams and foster her passion for music with other like-minded people and her focus was

to achieve this amongst the senior citizens of Bendigo. Nine months down the track, today there exists an outstanding senior’s choral group whose repertoire includes songs from KISS, the Ramones, Bob Dylan, Amy Winehouse and Coldplay. See and hear more about the choir at www.bendigoweekly.com.au

Trading in change... A change is always as a good as a holiday, it just depends on your destination. WHATCHA-GOT? All of us love to upgrade, trade up and improve at some point in our lives, whether it’s our faces, cars or conversation skills. So much so, divorce is no longer taboo like it was in the good old days and self empowerment companies are sucking in people by the thousands. Even Warnie has cleaned up his act, and his teeth too. Change is the new black. It’s not a bad thing, and “out with the old and in with the new “ often works. But it depends on what you’re trading up for: sometimes it’s better to stick with the traditional parma and chips and get a guaranteed decent feed, than pick over braised goat’s testicles with a side of honey-drizzled lovegrass, and go hungry, and be at least $60 worse off for the experience.

And hanging onto things from the past can hold you back. Whether it’s a pair of jeans you’re never going to fit into. Or a deep resentment of somebody who used to call you “Beatles Haircut” all the way through primary school. Sometime you’ve got to let it be, and just let it go. Even if you get nothing in return.

Tendering for new school

EVEN though the Education Act had come into force in the colony of Victoria in 1873, it required a massive amount of organisation for the new Education Department to arrange schooling for the children of the state. The initial option which had been largely adopted by many of the National as well as the Denominational schools was to be taken over by the Education Department, as was the case with the St Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School situated in Lucan Street, Irishtown. With schooling having become compulsory, it meant that in almost all instances, the earlier schools were inadequate in their accommodation to cope with the sudden increase in enrolments. This was also the case of the former St Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School which had now become State School 325 Irishtown. Land for a new school building had been set aside on the corner of Nolan and Smith streets, being a large block on the crest of the hill, situated north of the main Irishtown settlement, affording a view of the Tysonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Reef Mine to the south, and the gas works a few hundred metres further away on Bendigo Flat.

WITH

JAMES LERK The local Board of Advice had a difficult task with so many requests to be attended to in respect of school accommodation. Not deterred, the Board of Advice oversaw the placement of advertisements calling for tenders for schools throughout the district. As mentioned some

The local Board of Advice had a difficult task weeks ago, St Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School had been in the charge of Thomas Reid and his wife. As a result, he was appointed head teacher of the new State School 325 Irishtown, even though he was still in the same building where he had been for a number of years previously working under the banner of the Church of England. Mr A. McIntyre had written to the Secretary of the Education Department on June 9, 1873 as follows: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sir, I have the honour to submit Tenders for the above school for your consideration.

CLASS ACT: The new State schools provided more spacious accommodation for students and teachers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The time for completion being short namely June 28th â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;73 (1873). â&#x20AC;&#x153;The tenders of Messrs Kennedy and Anderson is reasonable and recommend that it be accepted without delay. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This tender does not include any furniture which will require to be further provided for. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Received cheque

Kennedy and Anderson ÂŁ413, Robert Wilkinson ÂŁ433, E. P. Newcombe ÂŁ520, Robert Jeffrey, well known Eaglehawk timber supplier and contractor, ÂŁ546 and finally George Pallett, a well established Bendigo contractor who had completed a number of public works buildings in Bendigo. His tender was ÂŁ642. As can be seen the prices between the highest and lowest contract submitted showed a difference of almost 50 per cent. To have received this many quotes for the period is interesting, as at the time most contractors were still very busy. As a follow-on from the mining boom of 1871-1872, house construction was at an all-time time high. Accommodation at the St Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School was so unbelievably cramped, it caused parents and guardians to take up a petition amongst themselves, beginning on June 22, 1873. In the two days the petition ran a great number of signatures were collected. The petition was sent with the assurance that they were all genuine and â&#x20AC;&#x153;that the prayer of the petitionâ&#x20AC;? be met.

Kiwi rock gods Shihad became touring buddies. “The first our, they were a bit disgusted with our behaviour, we were probably more rock n roll than they were,” he laughs. “We’ve got some very fond memories of touring with them, pulling all nighters and sitting on a beach watching the sun come up. “I’ve got a four and a half year old now, I’m usually asleep on the couch by nine o’clock.” Penman puts the longevity of Salmonella Dub down to a bunch of blokes loving what

peak, then crash again. “It’s not about the records anymore, it’s about the live show. “It’s all changing, but it’s great, there’s nothing wrong with change.” Change is the key word with Salmonella Dub, as much has since 1992, when Penman first hooked up with Mark Tyler and David Deakins, who were just shaking off their punk origins; Salmonella’s delicious melting pot of rock, jazzy horns, electronica and a heap of other ingredients, was just beginning to simmer. “Grunge was quite big at the time,” Penman says of the Kiwi music scene of the day, and much of the world too probably. “There certainly wasn’t any drum and bass, or anything progressive happening.” Salmonella eventually lined up a small string of shows, including their first at a joint called the Westport Racetrack tearooms, on a Wednesday night in 1993; around the days Penman had to scrounge for equipment. “We only dreamed of a sampler back then, but we couldn’t afford one because we were on the dole,” he says. “We hot-wired an old cassette deck... we found in a dumpster at an old record

Those Pacific pioneers of a distinct and original style, blending reggae, groove, hip hop , electronica and dub, are more focused than ever on what put them at the top of the sales bracket in the first place: ambitious live performances. Over nearly twenty years, guitarist Andrew Penman has seen the lot: bar room brawls with Shihad, guerilla style performance equipment, and the peaks and troughs of record sales. “Our strength has always been about the X Factor of the live unit... we are very focused on creating a seamless 60 minute product,” Penman says. “The arse has dropped out of the retail industry completely, i Tunes has decimated the concept of an album. “It’s crazy over here (New Zealand), you can be number one in the charts, and only sell 600 copies in a week. “We’ve watched it go from nothing, to this huge

So for the sake of promotion, Bridie picked a “stupid name” from a song by Sydney band, Ya Ya Choral. “We grabbed and used it and didn’t really think about it,” he admits. “There was no real thought put into it. “My Friend The Chocolate Cake was only supposed to do three gigs, that’s all that was supposed to happen. “It is a stupid band name. “But we’ve got it, and 21 years on, we’ve still got it... it works in its own way. “That’s the good thing... we were never meant to hang around “There was no pressure to change the world with it.” While the enjoyment grew beyond those three gigs, so did Bridie’s resentment of his hastiness in the band’s name.

What began as a side project at best for lead singer David Bridie and friends, has been two decades of success built on friendship, rather than intensely moody, sparks aflying jam sessions. “Everyone gets along really well, and we all believe in the music,” Bridie says. “It’s not like we’ve flogged it, in the sense that we don’t go out touring eight months of the year. “It’s pretty well oiled machine The Chocolate Cake. “We feel really privileged, it’s been a great journey.” It started 21 years ago, when Bridie began searching for a name for band that was only meant to

NEW START

Go with the flow By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

WATER – a dry topic, you’d think. But the new chairman of Coliban Water sets to explaining the corporation and its objectives with a zeal that is infectious. Bubbling like a spring creek, Andrew Cairns takes to the topic enthusiastically. That’s not to say he babbles. Mr Cairns is not the babbling sort. But as he talks about why he took up the role of executive chairman of the organisation responsible for delivering a good quality, reliable water supply to the Bendigo region, it is impossible not to be swept along with him. An engineer by training, Mr Cairns has been on the Coliban Water board for four years, stepping up to the chairman’s position to replace John Brooke last month. Currently the Bendigo and Adelaide Bank’s head of Community Solutions and Partnering, he was the first chief executive of Bendigo Community Telco (and remains a director of that company). That experience he describes, with apparent sincerity, as “a beautiful thing”. What it enabled him to develop was a passion he has for “blending communityoriented outcomes within a commercial framework. “It’s important,” he adds, “to ensure that there is a creation of shared capital.” Which brings him to water. In the past, Mr Cairns explains, water was taken for granted. Years of drought, followed by flooding rains, and we are no longer, at least for now, either uninterested in or ignorant of the role of water in our lives. “Gone are the days when water authorities were just asset management organisations,” Mr Cairns says. “Today we are more focussed on how we can be an adjunct to the economic development of the community where we operate.

Settling into the chair as head of Coliban Water, Andrew Cairns says the key to getting it right is finding the right balance

CUSTOMER FOCUSED: Andrew Cairns has a passion for community. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN. More photos at www. bendigophotos.com

“And you can’t do that in a vacuum. “The more input into planning, the more consultation with the community, the more it means you are going to have higher quality information with which to make decisions.” Customer surveys are showing two things, he says. People want more control over their water usage and they want fair pricing. “We have to be sure that’s in our planning,” Mr Cairns says. Coliban Water has a 50 year plan, which comes up for review shortly, and a series of fiveyear plans, the third of which they are about to begin work on. “That’s one of the things that excited me, to get involved in that plan so we can make short, mid and longterm benefits for the region,” he says. “Some of the things we

need to invest in are intergenerational, and so some of the decisions we make must be intergenerational. “In other times, we’ve had to make immediate decisions, when there’s a flood, or during the drought.” Not a man to use colourful adjectives, Mr Cairns nevertheless is quick to apply

corded a positive cash flow. Two positives have come out of all those negatives, which has put what Mr Cairns calls an “innovative organisation” in the box seat to capitalise on a unique circumstance. “We’ve gone from having the lowest flows on record to the most within a couple of

Gone are the days when water authorities were just asset management organisations the word “horrendous” to the past few years, desperate times when the supply dwindled, only to be finally inundated with too much water for the system to cope with. A loss of $16.9 million was recorded this financial year, yet again, but this was at least the first time in eight years that Coliban Water re-

years,” he says. “The diversity needed to plan around all that is huge.” Although it hurt, financially, the need to find new water sources (building the super-pipeline and a recycling plant) and to invest in new technology such as mini-desal plants has now put Coliban Water

in a strong position to plan ahead. Ironically, the problem they must also grapple with is that, now supply is assured in the short term, demand has dropped. We learnt how to do without water. Mr Cairns explains that investing in ways to “shore up the storage” had to be done at a time when demand was dropping. “Now that’s sorted, we have a demand issue: people are using far less water than they did previously, so there has been a change of behaviour. “No one is saying we should be wasting water, but what people are looking for, I believe, is more certainty over availability and over quality.” And, he reiterates, it is this that will drive the water plan, and this, too, which will form the foundation of the kind of organisation Coliban Water will be into

the future. As they finalise the appointment of their next managing director (following the resignation of Gavin Hanlon in July), Mr Cairns makes it clear the kind of person they will be seeking to put in the role. “As an organisation, I think we have come through a period of transformation, and we are more… no, not more…”, and he stops, a rare moment of indecision as he picks his words carefully, then starts again. “In the past a lot of conversations have been around the technical aspects of water, rather than the social and customer aspects. “I believe we are far more focused now on the customer area, and understanding customer requirements. “The reason I applied in the first place to be on this board is because of my passion for that collage of community and commercial needs.”

Your horoscope Aries (Mar 20 - Apr 19):

You and another may be in different camps at this time. You could be in conflict over issues of shared resources, which may also include the subjects of intimacy and sexuality. The one who plays Venus’ role is the one asking for more sharing. Sexual desire is strong at this time but can be thwarted by lack of attention to the communion of hearts.

Taurus (Apr 20 - May 19):

This is a time of evaluation. The subject at hand is a new relationship beginning or a fresh promise in an ongoing partnership which developed late in the autumn of ’11. If you want to grow this relationship further, then a new surge of energy and resources are required. You must decide if it is worth the effort.

Gemini (May 20 - June 20):

You are looking for a way to make improvements in your job or the working environment. This may require some experimentation. You’ll be turning your ideas over, this way and that, searching out the best solution. It is an interesting learning experience and one which others may share with you.

2110

Cancer (June 21 - July 21):

You may feel out of sorts this week. Your feelings are in conflict with your ideal self and your values. You want to put your best foot forward, but circumstances do not feel quite right. Bring closure to small projects. Wait until after the New Moon on the 26th to begin new ones.

Leo (July 22 - Aug 21): Your attention shifts toward home, hearth and family as it often does at this time of year. You may have a strong need to clean out debris, get out in the yard, and generally make things ready for summer. This will require three or four weeks, after which you will shift to the holiday preparations. It is your natural solar rhythm. Virgo (Aug 22 - Sep 22):

You are caught between what you should do and what you want to do. The routine is safe, but also boring. Your mind may play tricks on you and you could be distracted easily. This is not a good time to do work that requires attention to fine details. You are feeling independent, so you may want more alone time than is the norm.

Libra (Sep 23 - Oct 22):

Capricorn (Dec 21 - Jan 19):

Your love of luxury and fine things may cause a battle with your partner, who prefers to keep the belt tightened. This reflects a genuine inner conflict. A fairly strong part of you is also wanting to play it safe as well as buy what pleases you. Look for a way to satisfy your wants a little more inexpensively.

There is tension in your relationship sector. Partners, or even friends, may be goading you toward a fight. Most of it is over ego stuff and not worth your attention. You do not have to prove anything here. They just want to “best” you somehow. Pay close attention to your billfold. Pickpockets may be floating about.

Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21):

Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 17):

Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 20): This is a time in which your exuberance and enthusiasm may carry you farther than you really intended to go. You will certainly have more energy to do whatever you choose, but take care that you don’t promise way more than you can deliver. Your warm and generous heart could have a heyday.

Pisces (Feb 18 - Mar 19): During the next two weeks you will be contemplating your existence. You are thinking about how you can position yourself in order to feel more sense of meaning in your work, your family, and your relationships. Some may be pondering on the level of the spiritual. “What is the ‘best’ that I can become?”

This is not your best week for getting along with others on the playground or at home. Even if you keep to yourself, you may attract those who want to take pokes at you. Don’t get caught up in a battle of wills. The energies are short-lived, no more than a couple of weeks, and you can return to harmony.

You may have a nagging sense of boredom this week. Your normal routine may feel repetitive and in need of change. The “authorities,” whomever they may be, will probably argue with your need for change. These folks are much more into the security of tried and true sameness.

PASSION FOR BOOKS: Eaglehawk author Leonie Hill.

TIME and her writing group are precious to Eaglehawk author Leonie Hall. It was only when the last of her six children was about to leave home that she finally developed her passion for reading into a serious focus on writing. Then, when she joined a local writing group, she was hooked. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I look back at what I did when I started, the pad and pencil, I see how much Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned to sharpen up my writing,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now, I will put a draft away, sometimes for a couple of months, and then bring it out to see what needs to be done.â&#x20AC;? Mrs Hall meets each month with a group of half a dozen people in a writing group. They each bring a piece of writing on a set topic, and read it out for comments by the others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a varied group, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mostly to encourage others to have a go, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also very useful for ideas on what

you might do to improve it,â&#x20AC;? she said. Born in Quarry Hill, Mrs Hall is a fifth generation Bendigonian. She remembers being a bookworm as a child, when she would escape up the plum tree with a novel. It was reading Anne of Green Gables, she says, that cemented her love for reading. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was just an ordinary girl, but I liked to dream,â&#x20AC;? Mrs Hall says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be a pirate on a ship or a cowboy,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There were always stories being told in my family, too.â&#x20AC;? It was stories about her grandmotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life that started her writing; the first novel was loosely based on the life of a wilful woman brought up by a strict man, who once horsewhipped her for daring to take off in the hunting hack. â&#x20AC;&#x153;These are the things that trigger my writing,â&#x20AC;? Mrs Hall says. Her first books were published as e-books, but since she found Equilibrium Books, she has published in

paperback two novels, Issy (about a 1950s factory worker living in Fitzroy) and Chasing Lucy, set in 1920s Paris. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all in here,â&#x20AC;? she says, pointing to her head, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and I just like to get it out. My characters tend to go their own way, so I never really know where a book will finish. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember waking up one morning and thinking, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to see what happens next â&#x20AC;Ś then I realised I hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t written it yet.â&#x20AC;? Mrs Hall says she loves the feel and even the smell of books, and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t walk past a bookshop without getting her hands on one. She is concerned that her great-grandchildren (two already), will miss out on the pleasure of books, with the advent of e-books. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a friend who told me she woke up one night thinking it was dawn because there was a blue glow, and she turned over to discover her husband reading his Kindle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;E-books are fine, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not the same as a book.â&#x20AC;?

FOXY UPDATE

with Nicole Hood, Club Manager, Fernwood Bendigo

Useful hints for full support OCTOBER really is a pink month. With the introduction of Pink Ribbon Day, breast cancer awareness and breast health is in the front of many women’s minds and Fernwood Bendigo is very pleased to be associated with Octobra. This fundraising event is driven by the donation of bras, which brings me to the point of this month’s article, making sure that you are wearing the correct bra size. Here are some clear indicators that you’ve got the wrong bra size: Your bra rides up at the back – this is a sign that the cup size is too small or the straps are too tight. Your bust spills over the top or out the sides of your bra – the cup size is too small. There’s a wrinkle in the cup or the cup is loose – the cup size is too large. You have a bulge above or below the band at the back – the cup size could be wrong or your band size is

notice that your bras are feeling uncomfortable it’s either because they need replacing, or it’s because your body shape or your weight has changed and you need a different size. You’ll find trained bra fitters at specialty lingerie stores, and reputable lingerie party plan consultants also undertake training in this area. And for women undertaking any form of exercise, wearing a good-quality well fitted sports bra is a must. There is absolutely nothing worse than getting into a group fitness class to find yourself hitching up your bra straps the entire way through the class – very annoying. Once you’ve got yourself sorted with new bras, donate your pre-loved bras to a fabulous cause, Octobra. We have a collection bin at the top of our stairs.

wrong or needs adjusting. The straps leave red marks on your shoulders – the cup size is wrong, your band size is too big, leaving the straps to do too much support, your straps are too thin, or your bra needs adjusting. The centre of your bra does not lie flat on your chest –the cup size is too small The under-wire cuts into your bust tissue – the cup size is too small, the wire should sit outside and under your bust. The correct bra size is found by: Measuring – to determine your band size and your cup size. Trying on – since there can be variations in sizes between different brands and different styles So when was the last time you were measured for a bra? Not since your first bra? What about since you’ve had kids? It’s a good idea to get professionally fitted for a bra every so often. If you

Donate those old bras

T’S now the third week into Octobra and another very busy week of donated bras into all locations at the Professionals Bendigo, Fernwood, Bendigo Weekly, Bendigo Media Centre and now St John of God Hospital, Bendigo Health and the City of Greater Bendigo. Bras are collected every Friday and counted. If enough bras are collected by the end of the month, Fernwood Fitness will donate $2000 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Last week’s tally reached 565 with less than 500 to go to stretch around the QEO. So go through your

drawers girls and keep them coming in. Remember to get regular updates on their easily accessible Facebook page Octobra, for the latest information.

Bendigo day surgery â&#x20AC;&#x201C; how they operate BenDigO Day surgery (BDs) has three state-of-the-art operating theatres. in the operating theatre, patients are transferred on to the operating table where they receive anaesthetic if required. Meanwhile nurses are setting up sterile equipment for the procedure, to prevent infections. During the operation there is a nurse assisting the anaesthetist, one assisting the surgeon, and another to care for the patient and assist where required. BDs staff their operating theatres with registered nurses, enrolled nurses, theatre technicians, and sterilising technicians. registered nurses currently train at university to obtain a degree in nursing and enrolled nurses attend tAFe to obtain their diploma of nursing. there are also specialist operating theatre and anaesthetic courses available to nurses, which many of their

staff have completed. theatre technicians and sterilising technicians are also required to undertake specialised training. What equipment is used in the operating theatre? An anaesthetic machine, patient monitoring, operating table, theatre lights, diathermy machine and stock trolleys. Other equipment may include microscopes, liposuction machine, camera and tV monitor towers for arthroscopies and laparoscopies, and the ultrasound machine for removing cataracts. BDs have recently

purchased gynaecology equipment allowing them to perform most procedures for the treatment of heavy bleeding and permanent contraception. All equipment and floors of the operating theatres are cleaned between patients as well as a floor-to-ceiling clean at the end of each day. staff are regularly updated on infection control procedures and the facility is audited three times a year to ensure compliance. Contact Bendigo Day surgery on 5444 3533 or visit their website www. bendigodaysurgery.com.au for more information.

Making a splash in Bendigo and surrounds

G’s POOLS & SPAS is a local family business that has been operating in Bendigo for 15 years. They are the authorised Compass Pools dealer for central Victoria, servicing Bendigo, Castlemaine, Kilmore, Kyneton, Woodend and surrounding areas. Compass Pools is widely known for “the pool that cleans itself” and most of BG’s Pools & Spas customers take advantage of this patented infloor cleaning system. Their customers are rewarded with easy to maintain pools that use less chemicals and are safer to

swim in. BG’s Pools & Spas’ Emma Hargreaves said the time is right to buy. “There is high demand for our inground pools, so you need to get in quick if you want one this summer, spots are filling fast,” she said. “If you want something a little different we also build custom designed concrete pools. “We are excited to have recently joined Just Spas as we now have access to a large range of quality, Australian made spas.” Many of these spas are able to be viewed in BG’s

Pools & Spas showroom, including a swim spa. BG’s Pools & Spas has access to a large range of spare parts and accessories and stocks the Focus range of pool and spa chemicals. “We offer free, computerised water testing by our trained staff while you wait,” Emma said. “We also have a loyalty program and regular newsletters for our customers.”

“Our in-house pool service team can undertake maintenance and repairs, or you can sign up for regular pool servicing,” Emma said. The company also offers chemical delivery within Bendigo for just $5. BG’s Pools & Spas is open Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm and Saturday 9am to 2pm, and is located at 1B Adam St, Bendigo. Telephone 5444 3496 or go to www.bgspoolsandspas.com.au

Matt gives back “TELL me and I’ll forget; show me and I may remember; involve me and I’ll understand.” At the age of 10, Matt Wallace was set for 10 years of Motocross racing before starting a successful cycling career which has spanned 18 years, and now continues in a new phase as a cycling coach. Matt’s chosen disciplines of Cross Country Olympic distance MTB and road cycling has taken him across many world and international stages. Initially, Matt rode under the guidance of his father and uncle, both accomplished cyclists, but was not professionally coached until entering the AIS. Learning from his early shortcomings, Matt now abides by the tenets that a coach can add an objective point of view, and dedicated riders need to be told when to rest as they are vulnerable to overtraining. Retiring in 2000 from competitive cycling, Matt worked towards coaching accreditation and four years into this role is seeing success. Specialising in aerobic conditioning for roadmountain bike and track, his approach is a holistic one. Something Matt loves is teaching technical skills on the mountain bike to all levels of riders. “Teachers teach more by what they are than by what they say,” said Matt. He sets programs that assist his athletes to train the mind and how to stress body correctly. The dedication, desire and discipline has to come from within the individual. When this is accomplished there are endless possibilities that can be achieved, regardless of age. Matt is an encourager of older riders not to hang the bike up too quickly, as

there are a lot of opportunities in cycling after a cyclist retires. For those starting out in riding, with correct training a rider can easily get to the pro ranks while studying a degree or working a part time job. Matt has watched many make the mistake of trying

He balanced a dynamic program of both MTB and road and was set for selection in the Olympic team, but that’s a story in itself. Any journey has people that make it memorable. Matt’s dad, training partners Tony Hughes and Chris White, the VIS and Damian Grundy the

“Teachers teach more by what they are than by what they say” to train full time before their body can take that type of work load. Matt is not quick to share his past pedigree of cycling prowess, but from the mid 1990s the cycling history books local, international and on the world cup circuit echo the name long and clear. Matt shared many events with team member Cadel Evans in both MTB and road.

Cross Country Mountain bike coach at the AIS, all played a significant role, along with many elite riders, along the way. Matt’s reward comes in seeing self belief develop in a rider, “If you believe you can achieve something – it is amazing how the brain and body will find a way to make it happen,” he said. Looking forward to seeing you on the road soon, God willing.

BENDIGO Spirit’s season is back on track after a stirring12-point win against reigning WNBL premiers the Bulleen Boomers. Rising star Tess Magden had a big say in the game, collecting a near careerhigh 25 points in the character building 93-81 victory last weekend. “I didn’t shoot as well as I’d like to,” she said. “It took me a few shots to get those 25 points.” The 21-year-old Australian representative admitted the girls were feeling the pressure to perform

after an poor start to the season, but some tough training sessions mid week primed the Spirit for belting Bulleen. “We had a really hard training week last week... credit to Bernie, his training really got us up for the game,” Magden said. “It was a lot more physical (than usual), he put in a lot of physical drills to get our offence used to playing under that duress.” Magden said Spirit centre Gabrielle Richards’ effort to shut down gun Liz Cambage was pivotal to the win. “Gabe was awesome...

she pretty much cut Liz out of the game for the first half,” she said. “Gabe definitely won that battle overall.” The Spirit now faces West Coast at home on Saturday, a team Magden believes matched up well against them. “We had a bit of trouble with them last season... they play a really up-tempo style of game so we just have to make sure they don’t out hustle us,” she said. “We’re both short teams so we match up well. “I’m sure we can get the job done.”

CHAMPIONS: Yet another piece of silverware for the Bendigo Falcons.

Bendigo Falcons soar to rare premiership air THE Bendigo Falcons’ achievement of 12 straight A Grade premieship titles has been lauded by Baseball Victoria. The Falcons thrashed Eaglehawk by 19 runs in

this year’s final. BV chief executive officer Brett Hidson said it was a “massive” achievement. “It’s a huge achievement by the club,” he said.

“To my knowledge it’s a state record, by a fair way. “In the summer leagues, Waverley won four titles in a row, but this is something else.”

ON THE BALL: Peter Stepien bowls for Spring Gully at the Ken Wust Oval. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

THE beginning of Round Two of the cricket season produced the first centuries of the season with Spring Gully skipper Shaun Makepeace scoring 132 and Mandurang’s Matt Giri 127. Sixteen-year-old Maiden Gully spin bowler Hamish McCartney also captured 5/99 in his A-grade debut. Mandurang have given Sedgwick the daunting task of chasing down 331 after a dominant day with the bat as new recruit Matt Giri stamped his authority on the contest with a blistering 127 with good support from Cain Ladiges (56), Geoff Thompson (48) and Leigh Haw (27). The best of the Sedgwick bowlers was Matt Gray with three wickets. Sedgwick will be looking for big innings from Scott McKenzie, Alan Friswell and Andrew Sharpe to get close to Mandurang’s total. It was a similar story at Maiden Gully. Spring Gully posted 322 with skipper Shaun Makepeace compiling 132 and Ricky Mannix (79) showing that he will be a huge asset this season.

As mentioned, the best of the Maiden Gully attack was Hamish McCartney with 5/99. West Bendigo, after posting a modest total of 139 for Marong to chase, may have the upper hand, as they had the home side reeling at 4 / 29 at stumps. Marong will be hoping for a big effort from the likes of Richard Murphy and Jeremy Ross to get them over the line. United have set Golden Gully 172 for victory with Steve Harris (63) and Forbes Klemm (48*). They will be hoping Jeremy Rogerson and Brendon Lummis can get them off to a solid start after Brad Webster and Seb Olle again captured four wickets each. In the final game of Round Two, Axe Creek had a much improved batting performance. James Carboon top scored (55) in their total of 131. They then struck back late in the day to have Emu Creek 1/41 at stumps and the game very evenly poised.

Player of the week Makepeace gets a surprise THIS week’s EVCA Player of the Week is Shaun Makepeace, who smashed 132, after coming off a third ball duck last weekend. Playing for Spring Gully, who are chasing a third straight premiership, Makepeace helped his team post an impressive 322 against Maiden Gully. “The boys lied to me at tea and told me I was on 88. I was really on 93,” Makepeace said. “After tea I hit a six then was on 99 for 20 minutes, but I thought I was only 95. “Just a single to bring up

Job only half done, says coach McCrae IT was a run feast for Huntly/ North Bendigo’s top three batsmen last Saturday, but the job is only half done, according to coach Lincoln McCrae. On the back of an unbeaten, and extremely patient century from Brett Elvey (114*), who carried his bat through The Power’s 4/294, his team have the upper hand against Strathfieldsaye this weekend at Strauch Reserve. On a flat track Elvey produced his club’s first century in seasons, while skipper Lincoln McRae (71) and brother Brodie (66) were untroubled for most of the day. However McRae said it would take a similar effort with the ball to stop The Jets’

“We’re in a winning position but there’s a lot of work to do,” he said. “We’ve always had the game plan of having wickets at tea time, and we did that well on Saturday. “In the past we’ve struggled to bat all the way through, even in one-day games.” McRae said Elvey’s powers of concentration and application were almost unmatched in the competition. “There’s not many blokes who can do it, maybe Nick Scullie,” he said.

“He’s not elegant but he’s effective. “He cops a bit of lip from the opposition, but he actually thrives on it.” Jets skipper Ben Gunn said Saturday was another big challenge for his undermanned team. “It is a massive test and if we want to be a top-four side then these are the games we need to win and need to play well,” he said. “We need to stay positive and to put the previous week behind us. “We let ourselves down with the ball but now it’s time to redeem ourselves with the bat and we know that if we can bat our 85 overs then we can chase these runs down.”

SUCCESS: Dream Pedlar crosses the finish line to win the 2010 Bendigo Cup. Photo: GARRY PATERSON

By BEN CAMERON

WITH two well-known international horses running on the day, Bendigo Jockey Club chief executive officer Ian Hart believes Wednesday’s Bendigo Cup could be the biggest and best attended in its long history. The $200,000 cup has attract-

ed horses from big name stables, such as Lloyd Williams and Bart Cummings, as it serves as a Melbourne Cup qualifier for the first time. Mr Hart has accepted 337 nominations so far for the 10race card, a figure he believes is slightly better than last year. “It’s not just quantity, the

quality is absolutely outstanding,” he said. Among those nominations are British stallion Sahara Sun, Caulfield Cup second placer Green Moon and inaugural Sandown Cup winner Macedonian. Another Brit, At First Sight, is set to run after finishing second at the English Derby early last

month, as a 100-1 long shot. However the odds are the BJC is on track to have another bumper attendance. “We had just under 11,000 last year, so this year should surpass it,” Mr Hart said. “With the cup being a qualifying race for the Melbourne Cup, it should build more momentum.

“We’ve booked more corporate areas too.” The Cup has also been extended from 2200 metres to 2400m With such a broad and talented field, Hart was not prepared to predict who would follow in Dream Pedlar’s 2010 hoof steps and win.
