Freeway upgrade cuts accidents by half

THE full duplication of the Calder Highway has at last increased safety on Bendigo’s major arterial, after decades of fear and frustration about the dangerous road. Since works finished in 2009, crash numbers have reduced from 40 (including four fatalities) in the three previous years to 22 (two fatalities) on the stretch between Kyneton and Ravenswood South at the Fogarty’s Gap Road intersection. “Traffic volumes have increased on this stretch of the Calder Highway significantly from before the upgrade in 2004 to post-project in 2009,� Vic Roads Northern Region director Mal Kersting said. “However, recorded crashes have decreased since the duplication. This represents a 50 per cent decrease in fatalities and a 45 per cent decrease in overall casualty crashes. “The upgrade to freeway status included a number of safety

Recorded crashes have decreased since the duplication

improvements, including installation of wildlife fencing, wire rope safety barriers and more than 60 wildlife crossings‌ which help reduce the likelihood of motorists swerving to avoid wildlife.� Four crashes resulting in fatalities on secondary roads into Bendigo last month have nevertheless kept the focus on road safety, boosting the campaign by the Calder Highway Improvement Committee for works at the dangerous turnoff to the Calder Alternate at Ravenswood.

ONLY one of the writers asked if they wanted to be involved in the world-first reading event in the Central Deborah Gold Mine said no.

Super fund blows out

By ANTHONY RADFORD

BENDIGO’S superannuation shortfall could get a lot worse than this year’s $11 million, according to the city’s mayor. The City of Greater Bendigo council was “shocked� last week to discover its share of the $400m statewide unfunded superannuation bill was so high. The scheme provides those who joined councils between 1982 and 1993 with a fixed super return on retirement, no matter how

bad the investment returns are. Any shortfall between what is owed and what the investments returned is paid by the council they were employed with. Council is looking at a range of options for how to pay the shortfall, and has not ruled out scaling back its capital works budget this year. Mayor Alec Sander said he did not think the problem would go away anytime soon. “The fund has to stay ac-

tive until the last member ceases to draw a fund,� he said. “One of the reasons it would be so high now is

and more and more drawing off it.� Cr Sander attacked the rules of the fund, which mean it had to be funded

It will get worse, because as time goes on there will be less and less people there are so few people contributing to the fund. “My personal opinion, is that it will get worse, because as time goes on there will be less and less people contributing to the fund,

in case everyone retired and started drawing on it on the same day. “I would like to see the government change that rule so the fund doesn’t have to be fully funded at

that time, and that will take the pressure off the fund to make these draconian calls on local government,� he said. Cr Sandner said a council-requested report would look at all options for paying the debt, but he would not be drawn on whether cutting the capital works budget was an option. “I’m not going to be drawn as to what may or may not be in the report,� he said. “Our options are to borrow funds to do it, I can’t

see us putting up the rates to do it. “I believe there will be a system where we could pay it off over 15 years at a low rate of interest. “But, as councillors have already recognised, that is only a band-aid fix, because in three or four years there could quite easily be a call of the same magnitude.� Coverage of this story is available at

Grant eases mine water pressure THE State Government has announced a $300,000 grant to rescue Bendigo’s Central Deborah Goldmine from rising mine water. The announcement by Nationald Member for Northern Victorian Damian Drum yesterday on behalf of the Minister for Regional and Rural Development Peter Ryan, will provide for pumps and equipment to keep the rapidly rising groundwater below the Central Deborah’s tourism levels.

Running for a healthier outlook FATHERS’ Day will take on an added significance this year with the staging of the first ever Run for Dad fun run in Bendigo, to aid prostate cancer research. The event has been organised by St John of God Hospital, and has the backing of Athletics Bendigo, the Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia and the Bendigo Weekly. “Bendigo has a very strong prostate cancer support group and as far as we know, this is the first time in Victoria such an event has been staged to raise funds for men’s health,� St John of God Hospital chief executive officer Michael Hogan said. Athletics Bendigo spokesman Charles Chambers said the fun run would form part of the club’s calendar, and provide the entire community with a chance to raise money for prostate cancer research. “The run will substantially follow the 6.5 kilometre course used for the Keith Huddle Eaglehawk to Bendigo Fun Run (held October each year), which this year will be renamed Run

Mr Drum, who is also Parliamentary Secretary for Regional and Rural Development, said the level of groundwater was rapidly rising since Bendigo Mining had ceased its commercial mining operation. For the past 20 years Bendigo Mining has been pumping the entire Bendigo mine shaft system so that it could carry out its mining operation in the same way that any underground mining company does.

IN BENDIGO: Quentin Bryce will return for the Women of Wool luncheon.

SUPPORT: Joseph Mayes will run in the event to support his grandfather Ray Waller who is undergoing cancer treatment. for Dad and held in September,� he said. “We are aiming for 500 entries in our first year, from Bendigo and surrounds, plus further afield.� This event will provide many sponsorship and volunteer oppor-

tunities, from cash donations to inkind support. Those interested are urged to contact Keith Macdonald at Macdonald’s Nursery on 5443 4644 or Bronwyn Wheatley at St John of God Hospital on 5434 3255.

Our G-G’s on the way GOVERNOR-GENERAL Quentin Bryce is heading for Bendigo. Ms Bryce will visit the Australian Sheep and Wool Show at the Prince of Wales Showgrounds on July 20. Ms Bryce is the Patron of The Australian Year of The

Farmer and will be attending the Women of Wool luncheon and awarding the Australian National Fleece Competition winners. Ms Bryce was last in Bendigo to attend the Foundation Fundraising Dinner at the Bendigo Art Gallery.

A NEW mental health centre will aim to fill an urgent care gap in Bendigo. Pregnant women and parents with young children who experience depression or anxiety will soon be able to access a specialised new mental health support service. St John of God Hospital Bendigo has teamed up with Bendigo Community Health to bring a Raphael Centre to Bendigo. The Raphael Centre offers a support service for parents affected by anxiety or depression during pregnancy, or in the three years following the birth of their baby. SJOG Mission director Denis Byrne said Bendigo would benefit greatly from the new centre. “One in seven women experience depression dur-

ing the perinatal period – between conception and 12 months after childbirth – and fathers also experience a higher incidence of mental health issues at this time,” he said. “A series of consultations with key stakeholders have identified significant gaps in the availability of services for people experiencing perinatal and infant mental health problems in the Bendigo area, so St John of God will develop the Raphael Centre providing services free of charge or at minimal cost.” The Raphael Centre will be housed alongside numerous other family-oriented services at the Bendigo Community Health Service’s Kangaroo Flat site, and will complement those already there. Experienced mental health professional Tina

Winzar has been appointed Raphael Centre manager and expects the service will be assisting clients by October. “While the arrival of a new baby is usually a cause for joy and celebration, becoming a parent does not always run smoothly,” she said. “The Raphael Centre Bendigo will provide a range of services to help men, women and young children.” SJOG Bendigo chief executive officer Michael Hogan said the Raphael Centre will be the seventh service of its kind operated in Australia by St John of God Health Care. “This is an important development that will improve health and wellbeing in the community,” he said. BCHS chief executive officer Kim Sykes welcomed the initiative.

Ballarat tourism head questions impact of Bendigo’s Grace Kelly exhibition

Tour boss juggles numbers By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

BALLARAT has claimed the Grace Kelly blockbuster at Bendigo Art Gallery did not make a significant difference to motel business. Quoting Australian Bureau of Statistics data released last week, Ballarat Regional Tourism director George Sossi said figures for the March quarter, measuring nights spent in accommodation with more than 15 rooms, showed Ballarat’s

numbers are only five per cent lower than Bendigo’s. “Given all the hype Bendigo had with Grace Kelly, there’s not that much difference … and having a major exhibition that attracted 150,000 people, we’re doing quite well (in comparison),” Mr Sossi told the Ballarat Courier. However, the ABS figures collated numbers for January, February and March: the Grace Kelly exhibition opened on March

11 and ran until June 17. The figures show there are 34 establishments in Bendigo Loddon district with more than 15 rooms,

visitors spent 45,073 nights in those establishments in Ballarat, while in Bendigo, the total was 48,630 nights. The average stay in Bal-

Given all the hype Bendigo had with Grace Kelly, there’s not that much difference employing 424 people. Ballarat has 28 establishments, with 925 rooms, employing 338 people. In the March quarter,

larat was 1.8 nights: in Bendigo it was 1.7. The average cost of a room in Ballarat was $66.45; in Bendigo $72.40.

Free parking has its limits THE rush to drive your car around the block and return to a free car park to beat the time limit will be impossible in Bendigo’s newest car park. While motorists will enjoy 90 minutes of free parking in the $15 million Edward Street multistorey car park when it opens later this month, they won’t be able to beat the system. City of Greater Bendigo Parking and Animal Control manager Neville Zimmer said the car park has employed a new Licence Plate Recognition system to monitor all vehicles that enter the facility. “If a customer leaves before the 90 minutes are used up but then returns later that day regular parking charges will apply because the LPR will know that they have already parked in the complex on that day,” he said. “The 90 minutes free parking

“I don’t know why you’d go down that path (talking about the hype of the Grace Kelly event), but undoubtedly the summer is not our biggest tourism period. “Ballarat and Bendigo both struggle in summer. “Our desire to do separate marketing is because we want to incorporate all our villages in the region, and from a Bendigo perspective, we’re keen to work within our region.”

Even counting only the first three weeks of Grace Kelly, guest arrivals in Bendigo exceeded those of Ballarat by more than 10,000 across the March quarter.

Road toll down at last From Page 1 RACV Public Policy general manager Brian Negus said an assessment of the crash history of the Calder in late 2011 found upgrades have delivered a “safer roadâ€?. In 2008, the Calder Highway’s Harcourt-Malmsbury section had a two-to-three star assessment, one of the lowest in the state, with only short sections of the Great Alpine Road rated at one-star. That assessment was updated late last year, as part of the Australian Road Assessment Program. “This found that the Calder Highway, from Woodend to the Pyrenees Highway, was one of the most improved sections of highway in Victoria, with its risk rating reduced from medium to low,â€? Mr Negus said.

Three sections of the Calder Highway – including two which are still only single carriageways – figure in the top five list for Victoria’s most improved highway sections across the last decade. The Pakenham to Warragul section of the Princes Highway recorded the highest reduction (77 per cent) of crashes, followed by the Sunraysia Highway to Mildura section of the Calder (66.7 per cent), the Woodend to Pyrenees Highway duplicated section of the Calder (63 per cent), and the Wedderburn to Culgoa singe carriageway section (60.9 per cent). All these road sections are now rated low risk. Mr Negus said an update of star ratings for the national network, including the Calder Highway, will be released later this year.

Senator McKenzie said her role as a local parliamentarian was to ensure Coalition decision makers were aware of local challenges. “The intersection is a significant black spot and residents are worried about increased B-double traffic, heavy with grains, fruit and vegetables from Victoria’s northern producers,� she said. “Safety concerns around the Ravenswood intersection have been raised in The Nationals party room and with the Shadow Parliamentary Secretary personally.� Mr Chester said he had met with the Calder Highway Improvement Committee both in Canberra and in Bendigo, and was keen to help deliver a better outcome for

No hitches to stall election hopefuls

Mayor backs return of councillors By ANTHONY RADFORD

CITY of Greater Bendigo mayor Alec Sandner has backed most of his council to be returned at the October election. Speaking to the Bendigo Weekly, Cr Sandner said this election there was no major negative issue, such as the Hargreaves Mall or the tram-around-the-lake plan, that would force voters to judge his council harshly. “That is a very difficult question to answer because a week is a long time in politics,” he said. “Local government is politics. It is electioneering. “I can’t think of any issue that would come out of the woodwork that would cause anything like the discomfort there was at the previous election. “We don’t have a Hargreaves Mall coming up to this election.” Cr Sandner said the current council had worked over its four-year term to change the culture of the organisation after the mall and Walk Bendigo controversies. “We made it quite clear to the officers every job we did had to come in on budget and on time,” he said. “We went further than that. We looked at what we

We looked at what we would like to achieve over the fouryear term would like to achieve over the four-year term.” Cr Sandner said history would judge the current council favourably. “When historians write the history of this present council, they will look at it and say they addressed the issue of growth, and this is exactly what we did,” he said. “We considered we should do something for the commercial world, the arts and the sporting world. “In the commercial world, very early in the piece came the multi-storey carpark and the aerodrome. “For arts and culture it was the library and then along came the 1000-seat theatre. “For the sporting side we were able to find money for the QEO renovations, which have been talked about for about eight to 10 years.

“I have opened five separate brand new pavilions around the municipality and we are looking at the aquatic centre as a result of looking at our pools. “The historians will say this council accepted the fact there was going to be massive growth and started to put items in place.” Cr Sandner said finalising the airport was the council’s next major challenge. “There is a lot of work being done on the aerodrome upgrade and that is not far away,” he said. “There are people wanting an ice skating rink and it would be very nice to have an equestrian centre.”

Concerns TAFE cuts will hurt By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

ONE of Bendigo’s most important tourist destinations has become a busy and productive artisinal centre, thanks to graduates of Bendigo’s embattled TAFE. “You can see the results,” artist Catherine Brennan said this week at her studio onsite at the Bendigo Pottery. “So many people who go through TAFE courses want to create their own gallery, their own studio, their own business, and it gave us confidence to do that. “Doesn’t the government want people in the workforce?” Ms Brennan graduated from Bendigo TAFE in 2009, after five years studying parttime.

in visual arts, but her circumstances after school meant she was not able to enrol in a university course. “Enrolling in TAFE was a real awakening for me,” she said. “I was mostly self-taught, but wanted to learn in an environment that not only took me through the basics but also taught me to teach. “Throughout my course, I sat beside people who didn’t have the money to go to uni, or whose parents couldn’t afford to send them. “It allowed us to just try, without too much risk.” When she completed her TAFE course, Ms Brennan looked for opportunities to sell her handmade scarves as well as paintings and other artworks. When she noticed a building near the entrance

to Bendigo Pottery was being used as a stores shed, she suggested to managing director Rod Thomson she could rent it as a shop and studio space. Now, she works there seven days a week, and since she opened in April last year, other artists, several of them also TAFE graduates, have set up in nearby buildings. “I dream of making this like another artists’ village,” she says. Ms Brennan credits TAFE with getting her started in her business, and is concerned cuts to funding will limit future opportunities for other artists. “I wouldn’t be here, if it wasn’t for TAFE,” she said. “TAFE is like the heart of this city, it’s at the centre. “If the heart starts to suffer, the community will break down.”

Final goodbye to an inspiration INSPIRATION comes in many forms, but it is usually from other people. Be they mountain climbers, religious leaders, sports people or loved ones, an act, a caring thought or a general way of looking at things inspires us to be better, to do better. There was no greater inspiration in Bendigo than Michele King. The mother of three was laid to rest this week, after a remarkable life that will inspire a lot of people, some of them strangers, for a long time. Michele first appeared in the Bendigo Weekly in October, 2007. A month earlier, five days before her 30th birthday, the woman with an infectious smile was diagnosed with Stage Four cancer. It had come out of the blue. After falling ill in June that year, a series of tests revealed a tumour in her lungs. Three months later, a

primary tumour was discovered in her bowel. She was given six months to live. “Any longer, a brilliant bonus,� she said. Almost five years later she was still making people smile. Those who face the greatest fear of all – death – and deal with it with the optimism, strength and compassion Michele and her family did deserve to be remembered forever, because they are inspirational. Close friend Kirsty Ash summed up Michele’s strength and inspiration.

GOAL REACHED: Michele saw her youngest son attend school. “She is our medicine. She is just amazing,� she said in the 2007 article. As the Bendigo community does so well, it rallied around Michele and her family, raising thousands of dollars and helping them every step of the way. Michele’s determination was warranted, and it, too, was inspirational. “I want to get a whole lot more out of life,� she said in 2007. “I’m not finished with this world.� She was able to reach

one of her goals, to see youngest son Ryan start school, which he did this year. Everyone who met Michele since the first story, or knew her beforehand, knows how big a hole she will be to fill in their lives. We will all gain inspiration from Michele, her life and the lessons she taught all who knew her. This week they, and others she touched in the community, were able to say their final goodbyes, and a final thankyou.

Tackling a crisis IT was while sitting, ironically, in Shepparton KFC that I came across the Herald Sun report on the state’s obesity crisis.

By Anthony RAdfoRd

The article revealed the State Government had vowed to put Victoria on a diet and a get-fit program to lower obesity rates. The disturbing fact in the article was that Bendigo had the second-worst obesity levels in the state. According to the stats, 56.9 per cent of Bendigonians were overweight or obese. That stat did, and still does, scare me. Surely it couldn’t be right, given the amount of people who walk around the city’s lakes each morning and night, who ride bikes religiously and who go to the gym every day. It seems the majority of the rest of us, and I put myself into that category, are putting our health seriously at risk by simply eating too much and not exercising enough. The realisation our city was facing a major health epidemic soon, if not now, resulted in a quick meeting between Bendigo Weekly staff. We wanted to do what we could to help, and fast. A phone call to the State Government revealed they were planning to roll out a $105 million Prevention Community Model to try to beat the epidemic.

It was in talks with the worst-effected councils to see what programs could be run where, including a Ministry of Food program with Jamie Oliver. Despite Geelong being only seventh on the obesity list, the government has chosen to base that in the City by the Bay, but has chosen a set of local programs with the City of Greater Bendigo council and Bendigo Community health. It has taken more than seven months for the Bendigo healthy Communities Program to begin, and from next week we will unveil in this column who they are, what they do and how they can help you. In the meantime, the Weekly began the Bendigo Better health Club. The club was designed to bring locals the best information about healthy eating and healthy lifestyle it can, while waiting for the local program to start. It gives relevant information, and not too much, to people in their letter boxes, and in their email inboxes, every week. While we will never know how much of an effect the campaign so far has had in the wider community, it has had a marked effect in the Bendigo Weekly

WEEKLY WEIGH IN: Editor Anthony Radford and features editor Steve Kendall’s combined weight loss at 65kg is greater than account manager Pam Fitton’s whole bodyweight. offices. Features editor Steve Kendall and I have taken the anti-obesity message on, big time. Since the start of the year, Steve has lost 35.1kg. I have lost 30kg since easter. For me, it was a lot easier, because I had a trail blazer, in Steve. When Steve started dropping the kilos with Very Low Calorie Diet shakes, it became easier for me to do it. I could see they worked. If I was to shed the amount of kilos I needed, and I still have about 10 to go, it would have taken me about 12 months of watching my eating and exercising a hell of a lot. This way, I could see an alternative, a way that

allowed me to lose a lot of weight, in a relatively short time. And I have. It has been hard, quite hard at times, but the more you stick to it the better the results. hard work is easy when you can measure the results each week. The important thing through all this is to discuss everything with your doctor. I have a minor heart issue, and it wasn’t a problem, but I needed to know first. Once the weight loss is achieved, it is up to me to change my eating habits and exercise regularly. That is easier to do when you are starting from a position of strength, which I now am. The weight loss, for

both Steve and I, has abolished any health problems we have, and no doubt extended our lives. When you look at the challenges facing some people every day, losing weight over the past six months has been comparatively easy. C’mon Bendigo, let’s all get involved. Once the healthy Communities information starts coming through in the Weekly over the next few months, take note. There may be no need for you to take the drastic measures that Steve and I have done, but there will be plenty of options and information available for you all to make better decisions and kill our obesity crisis.

TUNING UP: Joanne and Tammy Bonazza will perform next weekend. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

THE opportunity to perform in the loveliest venue in town has come at a perfect time for Joanne and Tammy Bonazza. “You don’t get too many chances to sing and play in public with a top accompanist,” Joanne said. “We have many choirs in Bendigo, and many people are interested, but we don’t have what used to be here – the conservatorium,

when each and every performance was jam-packed. “This opportunity helps us perform and gives us a little bit less to worry about.” Joanne is a soprano who has been singing as long as she can remember. Her daughter, Tammy, 16, has been learning the violin since she was five. “She’s quite gifted, so we’re hoping she can go on with it,” Joanne said. Their performance at

the Bendigo Bank Theatre at The Capital on Friday, July 20 has been made possible by the Performance Subsidy Program run by the City of Greater Bendigo council. It enables the duo to hire the theatre and their accompanist, pianist Cheryl Long. Joanne, who sings each Sunday in the Sacred Heart Cathedral at the 8.30am Mass, said they have been preparing for the concert for the past six months.

“We’ve played at Carols by Candlelight, and done one concert before, but this is only the second. “We’ll be doing a very mixed program, from Mozart and Gluck to contemporary music. “We are pleased to be able to showcase ourselves, without the burden of the cost.” Bookings for Joanne and Tammy Bonazza at The Capital, 5434 6100 or online.

Carbon tax adds burden to health By ANTHONY RADFORD

THE carbon tax will cost Bendigo Health an extra $600,000 this financial year. Despite being part of a large buying group, which enables them to buy power and gas at a cheaper rate, Bendigo Health expects a power and gas bill this financial year of $3m, 20 per cent up on last year. New Bendigo Hospital executive director David Walker, said the bill, which is for the current site, is the worst-case scenario. “That figure is what we have put into our budget, which will cover the carbon tax and general rises,”

LOOK OUT

he said. “Time will tell if these numbers become a reality. “It is someone’s job to look at how we can save energy across the organisation, and we will look at how we can change our behaviour to minimise that impact. “If we have to look at behavioural change or investing in new equipment then so be it.” Mr Walker said the $630m new hospital redevelopment included strict energy saving measures. “Rather than aiming for a certain star rating, we are looking for a very stringent low energy and low carbon target,” he said.

“That will deliver a very high star rating. “The feedback is they are quite high targets so we should see some savings made.” Planned increases in Bendigo’s household rubbish collection charge have been reduced after it was realised the carbon tax would have less an effect on council. The City of Greater Bendigo council initially said the carbon tax would cost it about $1.6 million. However, it has cut that estimate to less than $900,000. The end result is a reduction in the planned bin charges set out at the May

Hi, the State Government has put a lot of effort into restocking our inland lakes, reservoirs and rivers and as regular fishermen and women will know by now, it’s paying off. Victorian recreational fishers are enjoying the best trout fishing in 30 years thanks to the extensive fish stocking program and the end of the drought. The Government’s drought recovery trout stockings were now delivering outstanding results, with young trout released two years ago now providing some fantastic opportunities for the state’s anglers. After more than a decade of drought, many lakes with high quality trout fisheries in regional Victoria dried up, but when rains arrived in the spring of 2010, many of them filled rapidly and came back to life. Fisheries Victoria together with recreational fishers moved quickly to rapidly stock an extra 187,000 trout into 14 formerly drought-affected lakes and reservoirs. Since then the conditions have been ideal for those fish and their growth rates have been exceptional. As a result, trout fishing in some Victorian lakes and reservoirs at the moment is as good you will find in the more famous trout fishing destinations of Tasmania and New Zealand. For a full list of lakes and reservoirs stocked under the program, go to www.dpi.vic.gov.au/fish-stockingreporting

Why not use locals? WHEN is the local media going to make our local councils accountable for letting contracts go to out of town builders and sub contractors? Everyone seems to be concerned with how we spend our money but not where. Our much anticipated car park is a prime example – it was built by a Ballarat builder and many of the sub-contractors were from out of town. The same builder has been awarded the 120 new accommodation units being built in Atkins Street for Bendigo Health. It was disappointing to see our council and Bendigo Health, one of our largest employers, at the announcement with a Ballarat company who once again will probably use their own contractors. That’s between $20million and $30million in contracts to go out of this town. These are only two out of how many? Is it not hard enough for our local businesses at the moment without having to fight our local council and hospital for contracts being given to out of town employers and businesses? Should we not as businesses be helping each other to keep locals employed and keep the business and money local? Name and address supplied.

Education cuts are the wrong way to go TED BAILLIEU’S elevated and myopic view of Victoria and his government’s divisive policies will have a long term deleterious effect on the state financially, economically, socially and creatively. Victoria’s competitive edge will be compromised and eroded by the decline in funding to education institutions like TAFE, which were in a position to respond and supply dedicated teaching and well resourced courses to students and potential employers. The privatisation by stealth of education through the introduction of Registered Training Organisations, which have taken 40 per cent of the TAFE market has contributed substantially to the financial problems of TAFE. The resources and in some cases the lack of quality control on the teaching and awarding of qualifications by some of the Registered Training Organisa-

To buy a signed copy of any Glanville cartoon please phone 5442 5448

tions has placed the whole aspect of further education into doubt. The proliferation of the Registered Training Organisations has actually back fired as now they are competing for students and providing the same courses. An example of this in Bendigo is the cost of obtaining a Cert IV in Training and Assessment at TAFE – $1800, CEB – $1500, Registered Training Organisation $900, online Registered Training Organisation – $400 over two days. Most Cert IV courses are conducted over 20 weeks and as you can see there is enormous disparity in the fees, which brings into question the quality assurance of the skills and qualifications of the graduates. An incident in Kyneton also explains the ludicrous situation, three individual competing RTOs offered Hospitality, Business Management and Accounting in competition to each other. Surprise, all the courses were cancelled because each of the RTOs didn’t reach their quota of students for the courses to be viable. There was a saying in the 90s that Australians are going to end being the poor trash of Asia, because of not developing a priority in education – this is likely to come to fruition as long as we have governments like the

Baillieu Government, who does not value education and whose priority is not in the teaching and learning, that ultimately improves the quality and capacity of our community and society. Scott Ramsay, Strathdale

Why all the fuss? CAN someone please explain to me what the issue is with asylum seekers? The Federal Government spends more than $1billion a year on between 6000 and 12,000 people who come here by boat. That is like spending $1billion a year on Strathfieldsaye, or building a new hospital once a year for the next 10 years for Bendigo. None of these people who come by boats are ever terrorists, who are probably more likely to come legitimately by plane if history is anything to go by. Most of them are legitimate refugees and resettled in Australia or New Zealand. I have lived in Bendigo my whole life, and am a frequent visitor to Melbourne and Sydney, yet I have never met a person who came to Australia illegally. I have also never heard of an asylum seeker getting a job meant for any of my friends.

So, can someone please explain to me, why we are wasting so much time, money and passion on this issue? It is paralysing our parliament and turning our politicians into fools. They are no longer listening to the majority of Australians, they are listing to, seemingly, the irrational racist beliefs of a majority of marginal seats in our main cities. Why? It is only a big issue in these areas. I couldn’t care less whether more or less asylum seekers come to Australia, or whether the boats are turned back or not. It doesn’t effect me, or most Australians, in any way. Sort of like gay marriage. These are all arguments stirred up by politicians and the media just to create relevance and difference. Scare tactics win elections, not good policy. These people are not hurting anyone, they are not taking jobs, they are not security threats and they are in such small numbers their impact on our society is non existent.

Better roads work THE fight to duplicate the Calder Highway all the way from Melbourne to Bendigo was a long and passionate one. Politicians, and business and community leaders fought the Federal Government for years for the duplication, believing it would be great for local businesses and, more importantly, save local lives. Well, the evidence is in – it has. The Calder has been duplicated for the past three years. In that time, casualty and fatality crashes have halved, when compared with the previous three years. That should prove a number of things. Firstly, listen to the local community. Secondly, better roads save lives. While there is no doubt drivers are responsible for a lot of accidents on our roads, you can’t

Editorial Comment legislate or build roads to accommodate bad driving. However, when the accidents occur because the roads are too narrow, the shoulders are too soft or the design of the road makes conditions difficult, it is tragic. Some of the recent accidents on Central Victorian roads have occurred on unduplicated, busy roads. The RACV has long criticised the conditions of some of our major highways and they have a point. While the City of Greater Bendigo focusses on the city’s rapid

growth, and looks at expanding our inner-city road network, it seems state and federal governments have failed to look region-wide. The lack of action on the Calder Alternate intersection is appalling, from both sides. The former State Labor Government recommended it be fixed, but the Federal Labor Government said no. The State Liberal Government has not budged, and the Federal Liberal Opposition also failed to recommit to its 2007 promise at the 2010 election. Simply, the Ravenswood intersection needs to become an overpass, and the major highways around Bendigo – the Midland, McIvor and Calder – need a lot of attention as our city grows. We know that better roads work, and we also unfortunately know poor ones cost lives.

A lesson in TomKat’s divorce VIEWPOINT

MARIKA MCMAHON When I fired up twitter the other day and learnt that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes were going their separate ways, I felt like my worlds were colliding. Tom Cruise is always good for a bit of celebrity intrigue, his child Suri was the ultimate (well at least before Harper Beckham) in kids’ fashion and now there was divorce. As a family law specialist, at least I had the excuse of a professional interest in the divorce. When the divorce was finalised after only 11 days, professional interest was even more justified – surely there are a few things we can learn from a settlement reached that quickly. The immediate thought is that they must have had a pre-nup. In Australia, our version of pre-nups, Binding Financial Agreements have been part of the Family Law Act since 2000. A BFA is essentially contracting out of the family law system – where you agree to what you will each get if you separate, either before you commence to live together or during the time you live together. A well-drafted BFA will clearly set out the

steps that need to be taken when you separate, even to the extent of saying how you communicate your wish to separate. The TomKat divorce has more lessons for us than just the benefit of a pre-nup. From what we read in the gossip mags, it looks like Katie was well prepared and had all her ducks in a row before she broke the news to Tom. In an ideal world, if a relationship has to end it would be a decision amicably reached in unison by both partners.

Making arrangements for alternative accommodation, setting up your new phone, email, bank accounts and gathering together relevant documents like superannuation information can save time, stress and cost later on. Obtaining legal advice before you separate is invaluable. Chatting to a family lawyer about your individual circumstances can help you get understanding of what might be ahead as well as the things that you can do to protect

Obtaining legal advice before you separate is invaluable Sadly, life is rarely that easy. If there is violence or mental health issues, often a separation needs to occur in difficult and even unplanned circumstances. In my experience, many times one party will be oblivious to the feeling that the other party has – that the relationship is disintegrating or a person faced with the breakdown of the relationship instead puts their head firmly in the sand. Katie’s divorce journey can teach us that if there is the opportunity to get organised before you separate, it can save a lot of time, effort and trauma later.

your situation, it might even give you peace of mind as to how you can meet your cost of living in those initial weeks following settlement. Under Australian family law, the right split of assets between the parties is a matter of weighing up how each party contributed to the building up of the assets, both financially and non-financially and then balancing that against the future needs of both the parties. To embark on that analysis you need to have an accurate understanding of what are your assets and liabilities.

In our family law matters, more of the time is spent ascertaining that compared to assessing and arguing the contributions and needs. Ensuring you have a good understanding of your joint financial position will make things a lot smoother. Sometimes, when a relationship ends, a person can be deliberately kept in the dark about their financial situation. Ideally it is also good to know what you plan for the future as this will effect your settlement – things like where will you live, will you need to work more, will you be able to borrow money to refinance the mortgage. I suppose that wasn’t such an issue for Tom and Katie, they probably had to think more about will they be able to keep Suri in the heels and designer handbags. Like Australian settlements, the terms of this settlement will be confidential so we’ll never know the full picture – we are just left to ponder whether Katie has received enough out of the settlement or will she be looking for a revival of Dawson’s Creek to pay the bills.

Restaurants join forces to spread Bendigo’s best By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

IN the past five years, Bendigo’s reputation for all things cultural has gone up many notches. To build on the region’s “flavour of the year� status, Bendigo Tourism today relaunches the Life’s-a-Dish program, teaming one of the city’s best-loved heritage attractions with some of our best-known restaurants. “The idea first grew out of a chance encounter,� City of Greater Bendigo marketing manager Glenn Harvey said. “Former (council) CEO John McLean and his wife, Claudia, came back from a trip to Italy enthusiastic about the Buon Ricordo concept that first began in 1964 and now embraces 120 venues. “Bendigo’s version of the Buon Ricordo idea was to get visitors and locals to explore beyond spaghetti and lasagna.� Life’s-a-Dish 2012 includes seven restaurants: Domaine Asmara at Tolleen, Gallery Cafe, Hotel Shamrock, La Piazza, Malayan Orchid, Quills and Twenty2. Artist Sue James has worked with each restaurant to design individual plates, which will be used to serve each season’s signature dish. Patrons can buy the plates, made at Bendigo Pottery, and once all seven are collected, you receive a complimentary master plate, featuring images of Bendigo. “Bendigo’s new pioneers are the chefs, restaurateur and winemakers who are crafting a fine-dining renaissance,� Mr Harvey said. “We’re blessed with fresh local produce, so it will be interesting to see what each restaurant comes up with as their seasonal dish.� ON THE MENU: Carlo Barri of La Piazza.

TEMPORARY HOME: Mayor Alec Sandner and Carolyn Macvean in Pall Mall.

Library on the move

By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

THE biggest problem facing library staff from their impending move is letting people know. “Everything is going well, and we’re on track for the move at the end of August,” Goldfields Library Corporation chief executive Carolyn Macvean said. “We’re just hoping people know where we are.” Work has almost finished on a quick refurbishment of the former Advertiser building at 96-98 Pall Mall, which the Bendigo library will take over for about 18 months from August 27.

“As a temporary space, this will work well,” Ms Macvean said. “We’re trying to keep disruption to our services to a minimum.” Most services will be contained on the ground floor, with the main entrance from Pall Mall. The building at the rear, which fronts onto Hargreaves Street almost opposite the current library site, will also be used. The Pall Mall building is currently up for sale, but would only be sold subject to a lease for the temporary library.

THIS year’s big-selling book, Fifty Shades of Grey by EL James, is proving what we all know: we love to be involved in a popular event, and it’s fun to get caught up in something that sweeps the world. With the internet, that kind of mass-involvement is so easy. Although there is something calculated about the way this book was marketed, it’s also jolly clever. So: does anyone think it’s a good book? Clearly lots of people have enjoyed it, because it’s finally OK to have soft-porn openly discussed without making people feel they are doing something illicit in reading it. But most people I’ve talked to seem to know they are con-

suming fairyfloss rather than an eclair: light and sticky sweetness rather than something that tastes really good. Here’s how it’s described in the publisher’s blurb: “When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating.” Beautiful, brilliant and intimidating? Ah yes, this is fantasy all right. The rise of women writing erotically is an interesting phenomenon (Brisbane writer Krissy Kneen has been a ground-breaker in this here in Australia). Local romance writer Jess Anastasi will have something

to say about the difference between romance and erotica at the Bendigo Writers Festival on Sunday, August 12 at 3pm. She will also be discussing the difference (is there any?) between men’s and women’s writing. If you think there is none, or that the differences are only to do with subject matter, or that there is a world between how women and men think and write, come along and join in the discussion. Fantasy writer Margo Lanagan, who has been much more subtle but equally steamy in her new novel SeaHearts, will be speaking too.

Cats nip in at nap time Despite showing contempt in the warmer months, pets become friendly in the cold

IT’S cold. Others may use a thermometer or check the weather on the radio or TV, even the internet could come in to play. However, I judge the ambient temperature by cat activity. I have four of the little darlings, and for most of the year they skulk around the house and yard in their snooty way. They eat, sleep and sleep. Lazing the days away between eating some of the food provided by me and the long-suffering Mrs Kendall. They are so ungrateful. All this changes when winter comes. All of a sudden we are popular. Cats appear on the couch, take up all the best spots, and hog the wood fire. They will shred you if you dare to move them, and hassle you until you move from the top spot. They take a new interest in us, as if they really love us and always have done. It’s such a con, and they think we don’t spot it. I will let them get away with it during the day, but come curfew time the cats come into their own. Cats like beds. At 7.30pm the migra-

tion to the doona starts. Like the German tourists taking the best spot on the beach, the cats sneak onto the bed and settle down for the night. Heaven forbid you try to move them on when it’s time for human sleep. Last Friday I decided to head to bed early, and was faced with all four in their “I’m in for the night” positions. Softy that I am, I slid into the bed, taking care not to disturb them. Trouble is, their positioning made it a bit tricky. I had to bend in the most unusual ways to fit in the available space. This was all well and good, and I drifted off to sleep. About 2am the cats had felt the cold. They now decided humans are OK, and had moved closer. This was of course only for the heat I was generating. They had moved so close, their combined weight had pinned me in position spread-eagled under the covers. To make matters worse,

one of them was snoring. It was that annoying type of snoring that goes away, only to come back when you least expect it. The long-suffering Mrs K was in another bed by now, pushed out by the furry friends. I had a disturbed night to say the least, and finally

drifted off properly at 4am. This time of year, cats are up and about by 6am. The demands for breakfast began. This was alongside the noise of two of the cats trying to break down the cat door to go outside. I let them out, only to find one of the cats in the bath.

She prefers her water from the tub, but only freshly poured. No point me putting it there the night before. Has to be fresh. Jobs done, I hop back into bed for another bit of shuteye. An hour later they wanted to come in again.

Talkingshop

More food and water, a bit of running around and I am well and truly awake. Awake, but shattered. I noticed as I staggered off to the car to come to work they had all settled back on the bed to sleep all day. Poor little things, they’d had a busy night.

ADVERTISING FEATURE

More doctors in house

New service for Bendigo BIG Swedish Store Run is an IKEA pick up and delivery business, run by Morten and Nerida Hansen. For the past 12 months, they have been shopping for, and delivering IKEA goods to homes and businesses in the Geelong region. Now it is Bendigo’s turn, with a run planned for July 27. IKEA is such an iconic, and much loved store by families and businesses everywhere, but until now, has not been accessible to regional Victoria. Nerida and Morten saw a niche market in a shopping and delivery business from IKEA to your door, and have made it simple for people to order, pay and receive IKEA goods on a regular basis. Through the comprehensive IKEA website, customers can select products and build a

shopping list, then email it directly to Big Swedish Store Run. A quote including the goods and delivery fee is provided, and once confirmation is made, the customers simply wait for their goods to be delivered – a very simple, cost effective alternative to driving to Melbourne and spending all day in-store. With a large van, Big Swedish Store Run can move just about anything from IKEA, and are much more user-friendly than the current delivery alternatives. For further information on this wonderful service, please visit their informative website at www. bigswedishstorerun.com.au or phone Morten and Nerida on 0417 389 355. Orders for July 27 delivery should be booked 7 days beforehand.

WHEN it comes to a successful medical practice Golden City Medical Clinic is an outstanding example. The clinic first opened in Baxter Street around 20 years ago with two general practitioners before moving to Bridge Street where the numbers of GPs working in the clinic grew to five. The clinic made another move to a larger premises in 2009 to their current location, at the former Fifeshire Hotel at 41 Eaglehawk Road, Bendigo, enabling Golden City Medical Clinic to accommodate more doctors and pathology services along with plenty of on-site parking. Dr Ashraf Mansour and Dr Cassandra Worme have recently joined the team of five experienced doctors and four practice nurses.

Dr Mansour has special interest in men’s health, paediatrics and minor procedures. Dr Worme has special interests in women’s health and paediatrics and is currently finalising her studies to obtain Fellowship of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners. With seven doctors on board, it is now even easier for existing patients to make an appointment and new patients are also welcome. The clinic offers an after hours service 24/7 with patients of the clinic being able to access the doctor on call, simply by phoning the clinic. Call the friendly team at reception on 5441 4554 to make an appointment.

New legal hand at HQ

A COUNTRY law firm appealed to Tim Baré when he started his legal career with HQ Law late last month. He moved from Melbourne with his wife Sharyn and son Isaac after having worked in a management role at the Melbourne County Court for five years. “A country law firm had appeal to me, particularly the diversity in the type of work available and work opportunities afforded to me,” Tim said. “I’ll have to learn to adapt quickly as you’re entrusted with a large amount of responsibility.” This has already proven correct with Tim well on the way to establishing a trusted and professional relationship with members of the local community. HQ Law is a well established and respected law practice mainly focusing on conveyancing and

commercial work. However they also handle court appearances, family law and wills and probate work. “I feel that I bring a unique perspective to my clients in litigious matters where, through my experience having worked in the courts, I understand the dilemmas litigants face when bringing matters to court,” Tim said. ‘If you do require legal assistance particularly in the areas of sale of a business and commercial matters, I am willing to provide professional support to make your life as stress free as possible.” Tim looks forward to working with the Bendigo community at HQ Law, virtually opposite the law courts at 110 Pall Mall, Bendigo.

Soundtrack to fame By STEVE KENDALL

SELF-CONFESSED musical hermit Shannon Wakefield is going to be dragged into the limelight again. The ex-Ruteger singer/songwriter has been out of the scene for a while, and has only just rekindled plans for a relaunch. Then, out of the blue, Sony records let him know 15 of his tracks will be in the new Southern Cross Ten TV show, The Shire, which starts on Monday. “I had no idea it was coming,” Shannon said. “It’s going international, and on DVD too.” Shannon comes across as pretty grounded about the whole thing, though admits the cash flow increase would be good. “I’m not really part of the music scene in Bendigo, the TV show will give my music maximum exposure, but I’d probably rather stay at home writing or be in the studio,” he said. “The songs they’ve used are ones I’ve written and released myself a few years back, when I was actually doing gigs. “Funnily enough I think I will be getting back into live shows next year.” Shannon said he’s paid his dues touring with Ruteger, so

this new exposure is not unearned. “We were together for eight years, we had a record deal, and worked really tirelessly for not a lot of reward. “So I decided to hang up the guitar.” Shannon felt the need to take some time away from music, which had consumed his life for some time. He was also able to refocus on family. Self-taught Shannon first picked up the guitar at 18, and as he puts it, is still learning. “My guitar is the best relationship I’ve had,” he said. “It’s therapeutic for me.” Shannon describes his musical tastes as eclectic, listening to anything from soundtracks to industrial metal. “I love deciphering music,” he said. “I listen to it phonically and mathmatically. You work out songs are quite mathmatical.” At the moment he’s working on a heavy melodic metal concept album, whatever that may mean, alternative country and standard rock. There are plenty more genres in the pipeline too. Shannon said the extra exposure the TV show will give him will be beneficial.

“It’s not so much for me out touring,” he said. “But I will be able to write songs for other artists. “I get more joy out of creating music as opposed to the notoriety of playing live. I’d be quite happy writing songs and nobody knowing who I am.” Shannon said it’s not unusual for songwriters to take a back seat in the industry. “There are a lot of writers out there. “The guy who wrote all the songs for Dr Luther and a load of songs for Katy Perry, I don’t know what he looks like. “I don’t what the guy who wrote all the songs for Robbie Williams looks like either.” Shannon sees it as working on something you are passionate about, without the public profile. He hasn’t written for anyone else – yet. “It’s definitely something I want to do in the future, either with an established artist, or someone younger taking my songs,” he said. “You would get the payment from that song without having to travel for 24 hours to get to play a gig for one hour. “I like being a hermit, I would quite happily stay at home.”

DISC OVER BENDIGO

www.bendigoweekly.com .au

A pillar of society THOSE who have been following this series will recall how Joseph Reed was born at Pleasant Creek (Stawell) in 1875, then after many years in Melbourne came to Bendigo in 1900. Reed was experienced with horses as well as the aerated water and cordial industry when he was living there. He drove horse drawn lorries when delivering for the Frankston Springs Cordial and Aerated Water Company. This company was started by William Cleal born in 1861 died at Malvern in 1925; Cleal began his business in 1883 in partnership with William A Blake. The company had a diverse range of bottles for their products including stone ginger beer bottles which were manufactured by the Bendigo Pottery. Frankston Springs was to be taken over by GH Elliott. Exactly why Reed left Melbourne is not clear, however he acquired the Bendigo agency for Crystal Malt Ale of North Fitzroy, operating from his house in Arnold Street. On his corner allotment, Reed brewed hop ale and ginger beer, these became

WITH

JAMES LERK quite popular during the warmer months of the year. Joseph Reed, in 1906, together with his brother William Henry Reed, constructed a new factory, in Moran Street, two years later the two brothers formed a partnership. To the best of my knowledge the building is still standing. Unfortunately William died unexpectedly in 1914.

pletely rebuilt the original factory which still exists now as a self storage and antique centre. The most modern ideas went in the new factory in order to attempt to increase efficiency and capture a larger market share. As the boys of the Reed family were sufficiently old, they were taken into the business and they too had some progressive ideas. During the winter months there was little trade in the aerated waters industry and for this reason

The company had a diverse range of bottles for their products including stone ginger beer bottles Despite the family setbacks, the business continued to thrive and expand, employing more hands, it was then that he sought out larger premises. William Bruce had died in 1916, he had been one of Bendigo’s pioneers and was also an aerated water manufacturer, in Bridge Street, Irishtown. His factory and works came up for sale in 1917 and was purchased by Joseph Reed. Over the years he com-

the Reeds decided to manufacture various condiments, sauces and pickles. The manufacture of condiments worked in well with Bendigo’s burgeoning tomato growing industry. Diversification was important for a whole year cash flow. Joseph Reed passed away in September 1943 and was described in his obituary as a prominent business man. Reed was not only prominent in the city’s business affairs but he was in-

volved in other community related activities. Reed had been one of the pillars of the Arnold Street Methodist Church. Not only was he a trustee of the church but when they came to rebuild the building in a more substantial form it was Joseph who acted as guarantor for the loan to construct the new edifice. Reed held many posts within the church and for decades particularly that of Sunday School superintendent. He was an office bearer

in a number of other capacities as well. Reed was loyal to the core. Integrity is a word that his obituarist used a number of times. By 1938, he was so respected locally, that he was appointed an honorary magistrate to sit on the local bench. Sons Percival, Leonard and Alexander, who had connections with the Bendigo North school, continued the business, purchasing Darby Brothers of Sheppar-

ton Aerated Waters and Cordial Works. They also expanded down south to buy JG Spain’s plant and works at Kyneton. In time the sauce manufacturing was carried out in a large factory in Havlin Street, next to Ewing Park, a home décor centre is in the building at present.

ENTAL health is important to keep your pet fit and well. Bendigo Animal Hospital in Napier Street is offering a 20 per cent discount on the price of a cat or dog dental during July. Just like humans, pets need to have regular checks on their teeth. Damaged and painful teeth can cause the animal to go off its food, bringing on other complications. So a dental is a cost-saver in the long run, even easier with a 20 per cent discount. “The Bendigo Animal Hospital is a family-focused small animal hospital

where your pet is in good hands,� vet Karen Costigan, said. “A dental is important for overall health, so make the effort during July and clip out the coupon now.� To take advantage of the offer, one per household only, clip out the coupon appearing in the Bendigo Weekly this month. You must book by the end of July to be eligible. The Bendigo Animal Hospital is at 294 Napier Street, Bendigo and offers a 24-hour emergency service.

Fish caught despite weather FRESHWATER FISHING

NICK ATYEO and taking the prize for first fish caught for the weekend on the Saturday morning. John Telford and Rob Tanaskovic recorded the biggest bag of brown trout for the weekend with John also managing the largest trout. For those that missed out on the excitement of last month’s official rod-buckling outing the club has found a new location for members to brave the elements with a trip to western Victoria scheduled for July 21 and 22. Lake Tooliorook just south of Lismore (past Ballarat) will be attracting Legion Angling Club members in search for the quick growing, hard fighting Rainbows and solid Redfin. Successful stocking over the last two years has resulted in unbelievable growth rates with fish well in excess of two kilograms falling to all manner of fishing. While fly fishing and lures are accounting for plenty of fish, bait fishing with the live bait using the resident bait-fish is often the most productive method. A camping ground is adjacent to the lake with plenty of

Fyans hosts Goldfields Shield

HE Victorian salmonoid season on rivers and streams is currently closed. Victorian trout fishers are still able to fish in most lakes and reservoirs with the rivers and streams opening at midnight on Friday, August 31. To celebrate the opening, the Goulburn Fish Festival is scheduled for that Friday between 5.30pm and 9.30pm and again on Saturday between 9am and 2pm at the Eildon Community Centre. Free activities include guided tours of the Snobs Creek fish hatchery, a fishing expo and presentations, and a seminar about fishing in the region. Local produce will also be showcased along with prizes and giveaways, face painting, jumping castle and fishing activities for the rest of the family. Refreshments will also be available. For more information about the Department of Primary Industries go to www.dpi.vic.gov.au or phone the Customer Service Centre on 136 186.

held at Lake Fyans. Ballarat won the competition. Bendigo members to catch trout were, Tony Jacobs, Alan Chisholm, Greg Hellsten, Peter Bowman and myself. Unfortunately none were large enough to beat the best from Ballarat of 1056 grams. There have been some good reports of large trout being caught on bait and fly in Hepburn Lagoon recently. Trout of between two to five kilograms are certainly excellent sized trout. Cairn Curran Reservoir is very muddy at the moment but I have heard of a brown trout of about 700 grams being caught recently. This fish was probably stocked in November last year as a yearling, to grow to this size indicates a good food supply in the reservoir. Hopefully the water will clear before springtime and we can expect conditions for fly fishing to improve at Cairn Curran.

ORE than 20 members ventured to the picturesque Lake Eildon a fortnight ago for the Bendigo Legion Angling Club’s official trip. Cold damp weather could not deter the enthusiasm of members in their for search the exclusive trophy fish. Despite some serious angling pressure the exclusive trophy fish of our dreams still remain at large and will have to wait until another time. Returns were generally poor with even the often abundant Redfin proving difficult to boat. I was fortunate enough to land the largest Redfin for the weekend at 42 centimetres picked up trolling through submerged timber in 15 metres of water with a Manns 15, bibbed hard-body lure. However Tim Ripper and Maurice Knight secured the largest bag of Redfin with a combined length of 60cm. Most crews members managed at least one trout for the effort with the largest coming in at 50cm. John Purdy fished the pondage adjacent to our accommodation for the weekend at the Eildon Caravan park for a few trout including the only Rainbow recorded for the weekend

Taxation 2012

Tax returns made easy OUR tax return is how the Australian Tax Office knows your income for taxation purposes. Not everyone needs to lodge a tax return, but if you do, you need to lodge it on time.

Y

Information you need to prepare your tax return. To complete your tax return you will need the financial documents you have received or records you have kept during the year, and a tax file number.

Do you need to lodge a tax return? As a general rule, if you had any tax taken from any payment you received, you need to lodge a tax return. Working holidaymakers who visit Australia must lodge a tax return if they’ve been paid a salary or wages in Australia. If you are managing the estate of someone who died during the financial year, you need to work out if they would have needed to lodge a tax return if they were alive. If so, you need to lodge a tax return on their behalf.

How to lodge your tax return? You can prepare and lodge your tax return online, by mail or by using a registered tax agent such as those featured in the Weekly’s current Taxation feature. When to lodge your tax return? You have until October 31 to lodge your tax return. If you use a registered tax agent, you can lodge later than October 31, but you need to be registered as a client beforehand to qualify.

Convenient Tax Return Options: onss:

Tax help with Shares & investments Negative gearing & rental Capital gains Multiple year tax returns

After you lodge – assessment, refunds and payments The ATO will process your tax return and issue your notice of assessment that shows the details of your tax refund or your tax bill. This usually happens within 12 business days depending on if you lodge electronically or 42 if you lodge by mail. You should check your notice of assessment and inform the ATO if it is incorrect.

Getting help. To get help preparing and lodging your tax return, you can engage a registered tax agent, contact a community volunteer through Tax Help or ask a family member or friend to help you. Tax Help is a network of volunteers who provide a free and confidential service to help people complete their tax returns during tax time. Tax Help is suitable for people earning under $50,000 a year with straightforward tax affairs. See the ATO’s website for more details.

www.mgr.com.au

What’s New in 2012:

Sometimes, despite ‘expert’ opinions, the promised tax benefits of the investment might not actually be available due to incorrect interpretation of the tax law. Not getting the right advice can lead to negative tax consequences and leave you with unforseen tax liabilities. www.ato.gov.au

Bendigo Gold picks a new chairman

Digging deep for VFL finals By JOEL PETERSON

BENDIGO Football Club is preparing to go it alone next year, and its transition into a new era has already begun, with the appointment of Tim Dickson as chairman on Wednesday. Existing Bendigo Gold chairman Peter Lodewijks stepped down from the club this week, citing a new career opportunity as his reason for the decision. “I have been given a chance to pursue a different career path that offers some very significant professional and personal opportunities which I cannot ignore,” Lodewijks said. A current member of the Bendigo FC board, Dickson will see out the end of the 2012 season, and lead the Gold’s return into being a standalone VFL side in 2013. The club will completely sever ties with Essendon after 10 years of an alignment with the Bombers in 2013, and prior to that, enduring very little success as the Bendigo Diggers, including two winless seasons. The new chairman is excited to lead the club into the next chapter in its history. “I’m elated to have been given the opportunity to lead the club for the remainder of this season and then

WINNING STREAK: Bendigo Gold is on a roll. into 2013 when we will be operating on a stand-alone basis, “ he said. “Obviously the transition to a stand-alone organisation, especially as we are basically a young club, is throwing up a wide range of challenges and issues but these are being systematically and professionally addressed.” On-field, the club is enjoying the best winning streak in its history, having won six consecutive games, including a 26-point win over arch rivals North Ballarat last weekend.

The fifth-placed Gold takes on the second-placed Casey at Windy Hill tomorrow. Coach Hayden Skipworth said defeating the Scorpions will be tough. “We probably need one or two more wins to cement a finals spot, but they’re a strong team all over the ground and are probably the form team of the competition,” he said. “They have kept opposition sides to relatively low scores, so we just have to open the game up and play to our attacking strengths.”

Driving force for kidney cash FOUR Bendigonians are working to raise money for Kidney Health Australia by participating in the Kidney Kar Rally. The two teams of Damian Harris and Annette Ironside (SUBIrific Kar 63) along with Chris and Lesleigh Daldy (Team Bendigo 250) have raised more than $8000 combined for the rally.

The 24th running of the event will take in roads across the Nullarbor from Mandurah in Western Australia to Bendigo from August 14-24. Annette Ironside of SUBIrific Kar 63 said she was delighted to be involved with such a good cause. “Damien wanted to go in a rally and thought it

would be fun, and I have always wanted to enter and have admired rallies such as the Variety Bash. “I feel that the Kidney Kar Rally is just the right charity for us, with the main benefactor of the rally money the Kidney kids camps.” More information on the rally is available at www. kidneykarrally.com.au.

Heading off to Melbourne EAGLEHAWK’S Riley McIvor and Golden Square’s Hamish Morcom have both been selected to the 24-man VCFL Under-19 representative side to take on the VAFA on Sunday at Melbourne’s Elsternwick Park. Eighteen-year-old Morcom, originally from Ballarat, played in Bendigo’s 23-point interleague win over Gippsland on May 26, while McIvor, 19, played in last year’s BFNL Grand Final with the Two Blues. Both wearing number four come Saturdays, they are important cogs in the machines of their respective clubs.

Morcom plays a key role across half-back for the Bulldogs, while the explosive McIvor has been a shining light in a dim season for Eaglehawk, starring in the midfield. Morcom, in his first year at Square after moving from Ballarat to study Occupational Therapy at La Trobe University, has been named vice-captain of the VCFL side. He said he certainly didn’t expect the accolades he has received this year. “It’s all been a bit of a surprise really, I came over thinking I’d just focus on my studies but I’m definitely happy to be in the

side,” Morcom said. “You can learn a lot off the other guys in the team because they play in different conditions and they’re all obviously really great players.” McIvor echoed those sentiments, saying, “It’s an honour to play for Vic Country”. “We’ve got another light session on Saturday before we play, but I’m really looking forward to getting out there.” Both players will miss big matches for their BFNL clubs this weekend, McIvor’s Eaglehawk taking on Gisborne while Golden Square come up against South Bendigo.

Legend keeps an eye on the Blues

By JOEL PETERSON

Carlton legend anthony Koutoufides has described recent criticism of embattled coach Brett ratten as “part of the natural coaching cycle”. the 278-game Blues champion and two-time best and fairest winner spoke in defence of his 1995 premiership teammate. “It’s just natural, Carlton supporters demand success and everyone thought that this was probably the year when they were playing good footy early on,” he said. “Everyone knows with footy you’re paid a lot of money, scrutinised heavily and you’re watched by everyone so unfortunately he has to just put up with it.” Koutoufides now works with Herbalife and was in Bendigo this week to visit local franchisees Keith (chairman of Bendigo Publishing) and Karen Sutherland. they brought the man who wore the famous number 43 guernsey into the Weekly’s offices for a chat. Koutoufides said he follows aFl from a distance these days, but puts his former club’s drop in form mostly down to injuries. “I love the club and will al-

ways be indebted to the club, they gave me my opportunity and provided me with so much, but I only watch from a distance. “they had a few injuries, and the depth doesn’t look to be there, and you lose confidence when some of those players aren’t out there.” Koutoufides has been doing the rounds of several clubs in

I think that’s it for me, I think I’ve officially retired, again Victoria this year, making cameo appearances for Moonee Valley, Deer Park and Hillside among others. He was lured to Heathcote District Football league side north Bendigo in april to play alongside former Carlton teammate and current north coach Damien lock, and had high praise for the 33 year-old. “I was approached by the club and was told that Damian

lock is coaching, which was probably the reason I decided to come up for the game,” he said. “I’m rapt that he’s getting an opportunity to coach, and he was fantastic that day, he had high expectations of his players and they certainly went out there and played for him. “the way he set it up and the way he spoke to the players was great, he’s doing a really good job.” as for his footballing future, the 39-year-old said he has probably played his last competitive game. “I think that’s it for me, I think I’ve officially retired, again.” he said. “When you play football for so long and you give it away, something inside of you wants to get back out there and play with some teammates again, but to be honest I’m not sure. “I haven’t played that well this year, and it’s really only been to make money for the clubs and be in that team environment, but as for next year it’s not something I have intentions of doing.” AFL LEGEND: Anthony Koutoufides was in Bendigo this week.

By JOEL PETERSON BENDIGO has been in the limelight of the sporting world this week, with the Australian Goldfields Snooker Open taking place at the Bendigo Stadium. Beamed to 70 countries worldwide, the event is putting Bendigo on the tourism map and bringing money into the city, providing more than $500,000 to the region’s economy last year. The favourites so far have gone through relatively unscathed, with the notable exception of world number one Mark Selby, who lost his first round match to Scotland’s Jamie Burnett 5-3. Defending Goldfields Open champion Stuart Bing-

ham also suffered an early exit, Matthew Selt getting the better of him in a tightly contested match 5-4. Chinese superstar Ding Junhui cruised through to the second round with a comfortable win over England’s Alan McManus 5-0, while Ding’s compatriot Xiao Gudong went down to Barry Hawkins 5-1. Despite the exceptional play, crowd numbers have been disappointing according to World Snooker commercial director Miles Pearce. “Conditions here are great, especially having recently been in China and Thailand where it’s hot and humid, the players love it here,� he said. “We’re a little down on

last year in terms of ticket sales but last year we had exceptional numbers, being the first year of the tournament. “We see Australia as a growth market, we’ve signed a three year deal with the Victorian Government and we just have to make sure crowds are consistently increasing. “There are tickets still available from the Bendigo Stadium, however as the weekend progresses seats will be limited. “We expect more people to come in over the weekend, and depending how Ding [Junhui] and Neil [Robertson] fare, we could see a lot more people come in over the next few days.�
