Farewell to Thai fall victim Dean BY MICHELLE HERBISON MORE than 300 people gathered in Drysdale on Wednesday to farewell a 33-year-old Geelong man who died in Thailand earlier this month. Dean McKeon’s family, friends and workmates packed Drysdale Community School Hall for a service of nearly two hours. Mr McKeon was on holidays in Patong, Thailand, with a group of friends when he fell off a hotel balcony to his death while apparently sleepwalking on October 8. “We want Dean’s family to know in the days before he passed he was happy,” a tearful friend from the group told mourners. Mr McKeon’s uncle, Ross Deeath, removed his jacket to begin a memorable speech, urging other men to do the same. “I reckon Deano would’ve been sitting here in a T-shirt and boardies,” he said. Mr Deeath described Mr McKeon as a “hippie born 30 years too late” who loved music and dancing barefoot. “Family was everything to Dean. He was his mum’s flowerchild and his dad’s mate.” Childhood friend Blair Anson described Mr McKeon as “deep, loyal and friendly” as well as a party person. “He had an aura about him that just made people want to be friends with him - and he always had a way with the ladies. “It’s hard because I should really be talking at his wedding or bachelor party.” Mr Anson said he and Mr McKeon were “more into throwing pinecones on roofs and wrestling” than typical sports like football while together at Drysdale Primary School. They then went to Newcomb Secondary College together. Mr Anson said in recent years the

Picture: John Conway 72185 group reunited at birthdays and music festivals. “We’d always take off like we’d never been apart.” Mr McKeon’s boss at Etihad Stadium, Paul Brown, called him an honest, reliable team player who loved his job. “He was more of a great mate than just a work colleague,” Mr Brown said. “He never shied from a challenge and he’d always have your back. He was a man of few words but always interesting to talk to. “And he had ever-changing facial hair.”

Happier times: Dean and Rayna McKeon Mr Brown said McKeon enjoyed working as Etihad’s facilities coordinator for shows including U2, AC/DC, Green Day, Pearl Jam, and New Year’s

Eve functions. “But he never quite appreciated George Michael or Andre Rieu,” he joked. Friends also read poems and McKeon’s immediate family lit candles for remembrance. A DVD presentation followed the speeches, showing photos from McKeon’s life including his last days in Thailand. An on-stage display included a guitar, a djembe drum and a hat. The service included songs by Muse, Jeff Buckley, Frank Turner, Foo Fighters and Pearl Jam.

BY MICHELLE HERBISON POINT Lonsdale will remain split between City of Greater Geelong and Borough of Queenscliffe despite objections, according to State Government. Local Government Minister Jeanette Powell ruled out reviewing the town’s boundaries unless both councils and residents west of Fellows Rd requested change. “Municipal restructures can involve significant changes that can have major impacts on councils, the level of rates and services and the local communities,” she said. Borough Mayor Bob Merriman wants about 600 properties west of Fellows Rd to move from the City to his council. “Pt Lonsdale is divided in half,” he said. “Moving the boundary would cease current inconsistencies, like different planning schemes and rates bills.” Cr Merriman said two private surveys found about 70 per cent community support for the change. But the borough was still waiting for Ms Powell to approve a May 25 request for a plebiscite. “There’s no use us spending money on it unless the Government is seriously considering it.” Cr Merriman said rates on homes valued at $500,000 would be about $410 higher in Geelong. “The only difference is they have a green bin and we don’t.” But a City spokesperson said averages were higher in Queenscliffe. “If the section of Point Lonsdale now part of the City of Greater Geelong became part of the Borough of Queenscliffe some ratepayers’ bills would go up and some would go down,” the spokesperson said. Point Lonsdale Civic Association had also written to Ms Powell requesting the change about four months ago, according to president Barney Orchard. “It’s unsatisfactory to have a town with a road down the middle of it that’s ended up with two sets of local government management,” he said. “There must be a far more rational approach to the planning and management of Pt Lonsdale as a whole and not as two parts but the lead needs to come from the residents.”

Drawcards: Samantha Dudas and Kavita Petrack with their Icon for Geelong entries. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 72213

Icon ideas flowing icon

A COMPETITION to design a landmark for Geelong has sent minds racing, according to feedback from Independent readers. Managing editor Tony Galpin said the paper was receiving constant calls, emails and letters about the Icon for Geelong competition. “Everyone from top architects to school kids have contacted us with ideas, enquiries and entries,” Mr Galpin said. “The Icon for Geelong competition is certainly a great chance to exercise imaginations and design skills – and the big cash prize from Senia Lawyers is obviously a major drawcard, too.” Senia Lawyers is offering $10,000 to the winning design. The competition is seeking a landmark of artistic merit and beauty to promote Geelong around the world. Geelong West’s Colin Kelsall suggested a revolving restaurant on top of disused cement silos overlooking Geelong from Herne Hill. “You would have 360 views and could be seen for miles. There’s plenty of space for parking and it’s handy to the ring road and public transport,” Mr Kelsall said.

FOR GEELONG “It could be further enhanced with seethrough elevators on the outside of the building.” Barwon Heads’ Neil Harvey entered a design based on a tall ship made from concrete panels. Mr Harvey, who operates a concrete constructions company, said his icon would be a 15-metre-high-by-15-metre-long replica of the Norfolk, which early Geelong inventor James Harrison commissioned to export beef to England in the 1800s. The model could sit on a pedestal along Geelong’s waterfront, Mr Harvey suggested. “Tall sailing ships are what Geelong was built with,” he said. Bell Post Hill’s Jan Dean nominated an observation tower at Limeburner’s Point. “It would give a wonderful view of the city, waterfront, bay and over to the You

Yangs. It could be built like a lighthouse or some other design reflecting Geelong's past.” Mandama Primary School grade six students Samantha Dudas and Kavita Petrack had their own ideas. Samantha entered a design for a new hotel called Shadatel. The “child-friendly” waterfront hotel would feature a wave pool, a uniquely shaped gymnasium and a balcony overlooking Corio Bay, Samantha wrote. Kavita entered a design for a bridge from Geelong’s waterfront to Melbourne’s Docklands, with glass-bottom restaurants every five kilometres and fin-like structures representing waves on either side. She also lodged a second entry for an underwater hotel based on a cruise ship design. “Who wouldn’t love it!” Icon for Geelong entries close January 28, with the winner announced in March.

Cup bubbles over as Dunaden rules track

in brief

BY ERIN PEARSON FRANCE conquered the Geelong Cup for a second year on the trot when galloper Dunaden won the $225,000 group-three race on Wednesday. Jockey Craig Williams rode the French six-year-old to victory after a comfortable start from barrier eight. Dunaden, who won despite carrying the race’s heaviest jockey at 58kg, had six wins prior to fielding Geelong. Williams, one of the world’s richest 2400m jockeys, rode Dunaden fresh from a win at last weekend’s $2.5 million Caufield Cup atop Southern Speed. The Mikel Delzangles-trained horse started with $5 odds, with $3.5 cup favorite Tanby finishing a close second and Irish beauty Bauer in third. Rebel Soldier and Red Eye Special pushed to a slender lead early in front of heavily backed I Am Jake in third. But Dunaden took over on the inside with 200m to go in his first start on Australian soil. The victory followed another French win in last year’s Geelong Cup to Americain. Also French-trained, Americain went on to clinch the Melbourne Cup. The win topped off a sweltering 30-degree day at Geelong Racecourse for more than 15,000 punters. Temperatures at the course were still hovering around 30C after the cup was finished at 5pm. Geelong Police Inspector Chris Gawne praised patrons for their behaviour. He said the crowd was “wellbehaved” throughout the day, with police laying just two arrests and a couple of evictions for drunken behaviour prior to the main race. Insp Gawne said warm weather and alcohol were often a potent mix. “It was the first hot day Geelong’s had in a while. It can create a few problems but we had a lot of police in place to ensure crowds behaved. “This year’s event was spaced out really well, which helps also.” Geelong Nightlife Association president and hotelier Darren Holroyd said more than 1000 patrons visited his Lamby’s Marquee with little trouble.

HUNTERS in the region have surprised State Government with a “strong start” to a new scheme paying a bounty on fox scalps, according to Agriculture and Food Security Minister Peter Walsh. He said collection points in Geelong and Colac were receiving scalps at the rate of one a minute even though October was “not the best time” to hunt foxes.

Northern help A NEW centre to help put disadvantaged people in “stable” jobs will open amid public housing in Geelong’s northern suburbs, Premier Ted Baillieu has announced. Mr Baillieu said State Government had identified North Geelong and Carlton as the state’s first two locations for assistance under the coalition’s $4.6 million Work and Learning Centre initiative.

Scalp bounty

MPs speak REGIONAL Affairs Minister Simon Crean and outspoken coalition front-bencher Barnaby Joyce will discuss the future of regional Australia in Geelong next week, conference organisers have announced. The organisers said both men would be among a range of high-profile speakers to address the Sustainable Economic Growth for Regional Australia national conference from October 25 to 27.

Green goal A NEW employee will help the region’s smallest municipality strive toward its target of “carbon neutrality” in the next nine years, according to Borough of Queenscliffe. The borough said sustainability officer Jacqueline Wilson would work with residents and businesses to address the municipality’s 36,635 emissions of carbon dioxide each year.

Centre stays HUNDREDS of youths have helped celebrate a community centre becoming a “permanent addition” to Geelong’s northern suburbs following a 19-month trial, according to councillor Kylie Fisher. She said teenagers had “embraced” Norlane’s fOrT centre, turning up in droves on Monday night for activities to mark the official announcement of its future in Stead Park.

Incontinence cash A $10,000 donation will help children stop wetting their beds, Barwon Health has announced. The service said Lions Club of Point Lonsdale’s donation would buy five incontinence alarms for Barwon Health to treat an extra 30 children a year.

Record fashions field feels the heat at cup BY ERIN PEARSON FASHIONS on the Field was awash with bold statement colours as the ladies grappled with wind and searing heat at Wednesday’s Geelong Cup. Thousands of punters and fashionistas packed Geelong Racecourse for a glimpse of spring racing statements as a record 150 entrants strutted their stuff. Royal blues, reds and purples were all the rage among the ladies, while pale greens and blues were predominant for the gentlemen. But on the main stage it was all

about one lady in red. Grovedale’s Melaine Morgan, 26, shone in red and black, taking out Fashions on the Field’s dress and headdress awards. Wearing a frock by American designer XOXO and a headdress from Brisbane milliner Terrioswald, Ms Morgan said the outfit had been six months in the making. “This season is all to do with bright colours and red for me is an absolute standout colour, so I decided to get the outfit started some time ago,” she said. “I got up at 6am to get ready to

make sure I could get to the track nice and early and not miss out on anything “The cup is a premier fashion event for Geelong.” The panel of judges critiqued Fashions on the Field entrants on grooming, “suitability” and attention to detail. Ms Morgan wanted to “bring stylish back” to Geelong racing. “I thought a bit of 1940s class was needed this year,” she said. “It’s been lacking here for a few years. It’s making a comeback now.”

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN PUBLIC safety on one of the region’s most popular beaches is at risk after Surf Coast Shire issued a closure notice against Torquay’s lifesaving club, according to its president. Ian Turner said the shire’s list of rectification works would affect the club’s ability to maintain patrols. “It will impact incredibly on getting patrol numbers on the beach and our first-aid facility is in jeopardy,” Mr Turner said. “Technically, we’d be acting in breach of the notice and it has major implications for our insurance issues as well. “All bunkroom accommoda-

roof, which contained asbestos. “We’re grateful to member for South Barwon Andrew Katos for a grant of $300,000 toward that work but we have a lot of chook raffles to go. “Now we’re also faced with rectification works required by council, like fire walls, fire doors and a sprinkler system costing $180,000.” Mr Turner said the shire had encouraged more people to Torquay through tourism and housing developments, increasing pressure on lifesaving services. “But we’re not getting one inch of help from local bodies to help maintain the patrol service.

“We have up to 15,000 people on a hot day all under our supervision but don’t get a penny to assist the club in maintaining patrols for the beach. “Local authorities take our services for granted but we’re a volunteer organization and our existing resources are strained. “We need someone to stand up for all the years of service the club has provided. Without it, the next two to five years are not going to be sustainable.” Mr Turner said the shire should postpone its requirement for major works to the end of the beach season. Surf Coast Shire refuses to answer questions from the Independent.

tion at the club will have to come to a halt this week.” Mr Turner said the club had engaged Geelong building contractor McColls Constructions to liaise with the shire. “We’ve been in dialogue with the shire over the past four weeks but we weren’t getting too far. The contractors are liaising with council about the rectification works like the fire and stairs issues. “Council has presented us with a list of requirements just eight weeks from patrol season and it’s put enormous pressure on us.” Mr Turner said the club also faced a $100,000 shortfall on the $400,000 cost of replacing its

AMENDMENT C245 PLANNING AND ENVIRONMENT ACT 1987 - GREATER GEELONG PLANNING SCHEME - AUTHORISATION A02069

PUBLIC MEETINGS

The City of Greater Geelong Council has prepared Amendment C245 to the Greater Geelong Planning Scheme. In accordance with Section 8A(3) of the Planning and Environment Act 1987, the Minister for Planning authorised the City of Greater Geelong Council as the planning authority to prepare the amendment. The amendment affects all land subject to Design and Development Overlay Schedule 14 - ‘Dwellings over 7.5m’ (DDO14), which generally includes most residential areas in the municipality.

NOTICE OF COUNCIL MEETING The next meeting of the Greater Geelong City Council will be held at the Council Conference and Reception Centre, City Hall, Little Malop Street, Geelong on Tuesday 25 October commencing at 7.00pm. Details of issues to be considered are available on the City’s website www.geelongaustralia.com.au

The amendment seeks to implement the findings of the “Review of Design and Development Overlay 14 - Dwellings over 7.5 metres in height” (November 2010) and proposes to retain a modified DDO14 permanently in areas that have been identified as having access to significant views within the municipality. This includes parts of Bell Post Hill, Clifton Springs, Drysdale, Hamlyn Height, Highton, Indented Heads, Leopold, Manifold Heights, Newtown, Ocean Grove, Point Lonsdale, Portarlington, St Leonards and Wandana Heights.

THE REGION’S children are performing well in literacy but their immunisation rates are low compared to the rest of the state, according to according to a new report. The report also identified a “relatively high number” of one-parent families and above-state-average kindergarten attendance in the region. State Children and Early Childhood Development Minister Wendy Lovell launched the report by regional coun-

The Clifton Springs Boat Harbour entrance and an area adjacent to the main ramp will be dredged over the following two weeks starting Monday 24 October until Monday 7 November. The boat ramps will be closed to vessels during the week preventing access to Port Phillip Bay, launching facilities will be available on weekends, however some restrictions and time delays may apply. The City advises people wishing to lauch vessels during these dates to use neighbouring facilities including Limeburners Point in Geelong or Point Richards at Portarlington.

RGYC eyeing project BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN ROYAL Geelong Yacht Club is interested in managing a marina proposed as part of a new convention centre facility, according to the club’s manager. Phil Clohesy said the club had the experience and resources to manage a marina. “We’re very interested in talking to the council about that. Marinas are our core business and we’re strong players in the aquatic industry. “There’s scope for a visitor’s marina as part of the convention centre and the more visits via the water the better for Geelong.” Mr Clohesy said increased marina capacity could lead to further development of Geelong’s Festival of Sail. “We have a vision of a power boat spectator flotilla on the bay to accompany the key events. An expanded marine industry would sustain the growth of the festival.” Mr Clohesy said the announcement was exciting for Geelong and promised significant benefits. “Any development along the waterfront will benefit Geelong and there’s a great need for a convention centre. It would become a huge attraction, along with the cruise ship destination project. “My experience in Western Australia was that maximising the potential of the waterfront will enhance our international standing.” Victorian Employers Chamber of Commerce and Industry (VECCI) chief Mark Stone said the project would help drive the local economy. “Regional economies benefit from conference and exhibition delegates enjoying the hospitality of local cafes, restaurants and pubs as well as visiting attractions and shopping locally. “The location will showcase fantastic bay views and ensure the convention centre will become a landmark in the region.” Geelong’s council has unveiled plans for a new precinct including the convention centre, a resortstyle hotel, a spa centre and potentially the marina on foreshore land below Eastern Park. Mayor John Mitchell said the project would be funded through a public-private arrangement. He expected some opposition to the project. “The development will respect the park and open it up for more people to enjoy.” Cr Mitchell said the site was on State Government Crown land under City Hall management. Discussions with the Government had been positive. “They haven’t told us it’s not a goer, so we’ll continue to talk to them,” he said. The City estimated the project would create 650 jobs during construction and 750 ongoing. The development would return about $56 million a year to Geelong, the City said. Bryan Dennis, the general manager of Geelong’s existing waterfront Sheraton hotel, said the city was short on rooms to cater for conferences and conventions. “The more we can attract the better off we will all be, right down to the Surf Coast.”

NO DEBT..!

“Works to date have included building a new entrance, refurbishing overnight rooms, installing ensuites, the construction of a negative pressure room for treatment of infectious illnesses and providing additional entertainment activity stations,” said Kate.

*Conditions apply: All pets must be microchipped before being registered. If your 2011 registration has not been renewed, a 12 month fee is applicable. The City provides this service in the interest of animal welfare and community awareness. We encourage pet owners to use the services of their local Veterinarian for total animal care.

“The redevelopment still has a long way to go and the next stage of work involves building an oncology unit to enable children to receive cancer treatment in Geelong.”

I KNOW OUR DOGS WILL ALWAYS COME HOME. WILL YOURS?

In addition to supporting the Children’s Ward through this maintenance project, Shell is sponsoring its employees in a corporate team in the upcoming Cotton On Foundation Run Geelong event on November 20, when more funds will be raised for the ward.

Shelter to cut animal killing 72242

Melaluka to help ease load on Bev BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN BEV DAVIS works the equivalent of two full-time jobs but not by choice. As well as her day job at CSIRO’s Belmont facility, Bev also cares for her intellectually disabled adult daughter, Kylie. “Sometimes you go home after a long day and you have another job. There’s a lot of pressure,” Bev admitted. “I’m on call as well and sometimes it’s really difficult to find someone to look after Kylie at the last moment. “I have a large and supportive family but they’re all getting older and can’t have her like they used to.” Bev said disability services provider Karingal’s day and after-care programs helped ease the load. “I use respite whenever I can because it gives me a break and gives Kylie a break from me. “She learns independent liv-

ing skills in respite, so she comes back a little different, which in turn helps me. “But we could always use more.” Karingal has launched its first public appeal to raise funds and in-kind goods and services for its Melaluka respite accommodation project at Leopold. Karingal head Daryl Starkey said the project would provide 2500 nights of respite accommodation annually for up to 300 clients. The project would refurbish

and extend a two-bedroom dwelling that Karingal had acquired in Melaluka Rd, he said. “We hope people get behind this community project either through a financial donation or through support with building materials, goods and even trade services.” Mr Starkey said more information about the Melaluka project and how to help was available by phoning Karingal Foundation on 5249 8919 or visiting karingal.org.au and clicking on the site’s ‘Get Involved’ tab. He said the project was seeking: tea towels, saucepans, cutlery, dinner sets, mugs, glasses, utensils, refrigerator, a freezer, dishwasher, microwave, frypan, electric kettle, toaster, sandwich-maker, food processor, towels, face washers, sheets, pillows, doonas and covers, mattress protectors. The Independent is a Melaluka project supporter.

medical treatment, he said. “Currently the shelter has a 27 per cent kill rate for dogs and we can reduce that. We want to see more than 90 per cent of animals re-homed,” Mr Bailey said. “We can’t do this overnight but we’re working with the help of RSPCA ACT and Animal Welfare League of Queensland who have done it. Both had new management come in and look at what was going on and made positive changes.” The shelter drew criticism last week over hidden camera footage

posted to the internet showing animals medicated and killed. Staff were also shown apparently joking about inhumane practices at the shelter. More than 150 people attended a Geelong Animal Welfare Reform group protest on Saturday. Spokesperson Joyce Doherty said the group supported the shelter’s changes. “A policy that takes out the killing of animals has got to be good. “We need to have some really inspired and invigorated leaders to see big steps taken.

The pledge followed a series of resignations at the shelter, with vice-presidents David Cecil and Mark Osborne following president Ian Walter out the door this week. Spokesman Mike Bailey said the shelter would now enter a “transitional period” in which it would stop killing animals to “make space”. The centre would only kill animals deemed dangerous or beyond

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN CLOSING Limeburner’s Point boat ramp for another cycling race is “crazy”, according to anglers Fishing Geelong secretary John Hotchin said the Corporate Cycling Challenge on Sunday, December 4, would close the ramp “virtually all day in prime fishing season”. Event organisers had been asked to investigate the feasibility of waiving fees at St Helen’s boat ramp as an alternative to Limeburner’s, he said. “It means trying to squeeze another 160-plus into St Helens, which is already chock full, especially if it’s a good day. “Limeburner’s is one of the best ramps in the system. Last year the overflow section was open and there was car and boat trailer parking up and down Hearne Pde.” Mr Hotchin said previous events had also restricted anglers’ access to Limeburner’s, with more to come this summer. “The recreational fishing industry is worth $2.3 billion yet

Squeeze: John Hotchin. they take every opportunity to take slices from it. The City is just crazy to allow it.” City Hall told Eastern Park users the Corporate Cycling Challenge was a fundraising event for up to 2000 entrants competing in a time trial. The event would start on Geelong’s waterfront, travel through Eastern Park then onto Portarlington Rd to Point Henry before returning. The race would close Podbury Cres, Lower Hearne Pde, Eastern

Park Circuit, Holt Rd and Limeburner’s Rd from 6am to 2pm. The event would also restrict access to the city’s botanic gardens, conference centre and East Geelong Golf Club. Golf club manager Russell Lucas said closures and access restrictions were frustrating. “There aren’t many days when we cannot get access. We do have some alternatives to get in and out,” he said. “It’s becoming more prevalent but we understand we have to share the facilities.” Event organiser Steven Greene said ramp fees at St Helens would be waived. “I believe the event will be beneficial to the Geelong community and council has been happy to get behind it,” he said. “Unfortunately, there’s always someone inconvenienced but we do everything we can to make sure the inconvenience is as limited as possible. “The event will contribute to the economy and raise awareness of the beautiful things Geelong provides.”

GEELONG has missed out on the next National Broadband Network rollout, according to a new schedule for the project. Prime Minister Julia Gillard released the schedule this week, showing Ballarat, Melbourne city, Melton and Tullamarine as the only new Victorian locations for the next 12-month rollout.

The schedule listed 28 locations and nearly 500,000 homes over the next year. Rollout operator NBN Co said it would announce additional locations over the next year. The Independent reported two weeks ago that local MPs had been lobbying Communications Minister Stephen Conroy to consider

Geelong for an early hook-up. Council’s economic development portfolio holder, Rod Macdonald, called the announcement “disappointing”. “It looks like they’ve gone for the easiest rollouts. Council has launched a website for residents to vote support for the NBN.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A REGULAR, leisurely Sunday motorcycle ride along the Great Ocean Road cost Greg Branch his life. Greg isn’t dead but neither does he feel alive. “It’s cost me plenty,” he observed quietly, his introspection heightened by the recent 10th anniversary of the collision that irrevocably changed him. “It’s not just the physical injuries; it’s the emotional and psychological scars and the effects on those around me.” The Newcomb motorcycle mechanic joined a few mates for a typical cruise along the region’s celebrated tourist road, including a regular stop at Lorne’s The Arab cafe for coffee before meandering back home in the afternoon. But Greg didn’t make it home for another eight months. While negotiating one of the Great Ocean Road’s many curves, an 18-year-old motorcyclist heading in the opposite direction crossed the white line and crashed head-on into Greg. “It happened in the blink of an eye. He had to be airlifted to Melbourne because he had severe leg injuries,” Greg recalled.

Shattered Lives Our hidden road toll “Then my lungs collapsed and they had to airlift me out as well. I also had head trauma and had the nerves to my right arm virtually ripped out of my neck. “He ended up losing his leg and now my right arm’s dead – it has no feeling and no movement. “It’s ironic: that collision literally cost us an arm and a leg.” Greg said he suffered daily referred neuropathic pain from his arm. “It’s a burning sensation. Sometimes it’s so bad I have to knock myself out with pain killers. “It’s like leprosy; there’s no feeling, so I’ve done a bit of damage to my fingers. “The doctors want to take the arm off now and I know it makes sense but I haven’t been able to bring myself to it yet.” The non-physical legacy of the crash was biting deepest for Greg. “It’s like your personality changes; we become different people. It would only take a little thing to set me off.

“I resorted to verbal abuse. A mate had an accident a while afterwards and suddenly I saw what I was like, except I was worse. “I thought I was stronger and it shocked me that I could be this way. “It’s broken my mate. And it’s hit my family hard. “My wife ended up leaving and my daughter shut down, shut me out. “It affected me financially as well. I couldn’t work and I lost half my payout to my wife when we separated. “It’s taken a lot of choices away from me. Once it’s happened you can’t take it back.” Greg said he had only recently started talking to his ex-wife again and was trying to rebuild his relationship with his daughter. He also modified his motorbike so he could ride again and renewed his licence. “I’m one of those people who thought it would never happen to me but it did. I did stupid things as a teenager and now it’s all caught up to me.” Greg pleaded for other road users to learn from his experience. “Please, be more aware of what you’re really doing.”

Uni tyre advance GEELONG researchers have helped develop new technology to recycle tyres for new rubber products, according to Deakin University. Deakin research engineer Chris Skourtis said the university had worked with VR Tek Global to turn tyres into a rubber “powder” suitable for manufacturing “higher-quality-end” products. Old tyres were usually dumped in landfills, burnt or recycled into “low-quality materials of limited use”, he said. “We now have a technology that is far better.” Mr Skourtis said VR TEK planned to commercialise the technology next year.

their families and friends actively promoted the libraries with fundraising activities. “The Paddington Toy Library received generous support from Bunnings, which completed a shelf refit to the value of $1000, IKEA donated $500 worth of new toys and Vic Group Training organised a 12-month traineeship.” Jo said MCG Signs was also helping out. Successful promotion had enabled 40 per cent growth of Paddington Toy Library in the past two years, she said. “With success comes the challenge of finding more space to accommodate the toys and better facilities for members to use.

“We’re seeking council support to include this in the new Children’s Services Hub scheduled to be built on the current site in Heyers Rd, Grovedale.” The nine regional toy libraries are in Ocean Grove, Belmont, Geelong West, Leopold, Newtown, Torquay, Anglesea, Queenscliff and Portarlington, with another for Winchelsea is in the planning stages. Jo said Paddington Toy Library was open 9.30am to 11am Wednesdays and Saturdays. More information was available by phoning the library on 0468 693 795 or visiting its website at paddingtontoylibrary. org.au.

JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A CHILDREN’S paradise is unveiled every week at Grovedale Community Centre – but not enough kids know it exists. Paddington Toy Library is one of nine around the region, serving more than 1000 members. Coordinator Jo Scott said the community-run, not-for-profit organisation provided quality – and often unaffordable – toys on loan to members. “Members can be parents, grandparents and family day-care providers,” Jo explained. “We want to encourage learning through play for children, especially those who might not be able to access quality toys. “By providing a service to families at a small fee, children in disadvantaged situations have access to the same early learning resources as their peers,” Jo explained. “Providing a diverse range of toys such as puzzles, games, dress-ups and popular party packs makes a child’s life exciting as they get to visit and borrow new toys each fortnight. Jo said borrowing toys was more environmentally responsible because the equipment was always in use. Jo said toy library members,

letters State irresponsible

Our daily deals are easy to find & use...

I WRITE to correct the record in regard to a story on Geelong’s Moorabool St bus interchange in last week’s Independent. Member for South Barwon Andrew Katos has a steep learning curve ahead judging by his response to the community’s call for a rostered police presence at the interchange. First, council voted in 2009 to provide “in-principle support” for the state Department of Transport’s proposal to establish a central Geelong bus stop. That’s right, council was asked to endorse a State Government plan. Council supported that plan with conditions attached so the Government would not just walk away when it finished the project. One condition was that the Government supply customer service officers to help with the interchange. Council did not supply security officers to the interchange at any stage. Mr Katos was on council at the time. Of course, he may not have read his paperwork, as was the case with the Moorabool St social housing development. Second, police numbers, law and order and limiting anti-social behaviour in our community are jobs for police. Our police do a great job with limited staff and our community needs a substantial boost to police numbers. It is State Government’s responsibility to provide adequate police. Mr Katos possibly believes he and his Government can walk away from their responsibilities. Cr Andy Richards City of Greater Geelong

GIVEN that the general public has no recourse to other forms of energy, the carbon tax seems even more repugnant. England’s British Constitution Group has detailed some of the carbon tax’s impositions in an internet You Tube video titled Some Things You Ought to Know About, Australia. The clip states that not only will there be a price on carbon but the size of ours car and houses will be taxed as well as our wages and the holidays we take. It seems anything carbon-related will be taxed, and although this video is British, there’ll be similarities. Given that little information has surfaced about the deeper meaning of the carbon tax, the 1000-page length of the legislation seems to perhaps harbour some sinister if largely unknown implications. Perhaps our local federal MPs might wish to write to this paper with more details. Gary Oraniuk Geelong West

Greater Geelong’s own easy local directory……

People pollution SO MUCH has been said and written about climate change and carbon dioxide that confusion never ends. So much scaremongering by Federal Government is nothing more than dirty politics by dirty politicians. They want to impose another tax, which they must give a name. John Howard gave us the GST, Julia Gillard will give us a carbon dioxide tax and you and I pay for no matter what. Carbon dioxide has been on this planet since creation and always will be. It’s a natural phenomenon nature couldn’t do without. The human contribution is just a drop in the ocean, nothing more. A book available at libraries, titled Heaven and Earth, is an eye-opener to the last page. The very last line reads: “Human stupidity is only exceeded by God’s mercy, which is infinite”. The world’s problem is not carbon dioxide, it is a population explosion in which one third of the population will perish due to famine, disease, war and so on. Frank Morino Point Lonsdale

Promise dishonoured PRIME Minister Gillard said in parliament that the pollution of this country had been investigated and discussed for 10 years to find a solution to global warming. You would think, then, that she would have had a clear understanding of the situation to put before the public during the last election but, no, this wasn’t the case because she decided when she just scraped through that there would be a carbon tax after all. I ask how can she get away with this despicable behaviour in misleading the public as to her true intentions.

Country boys set for return to city

Back in town: Troy Cassar-Daley, above, and Geelong’s Adam Harvey, right, will bring the country to the city in a dual performance next month. “I think we have as much fun as the crowds do.” Despite growing up in Geelong, Harvey said he always remained nervous about homecoming performances. Geelong was the only town where nerves plagued his pre-performance preparation, he revealed. “I always get very nervous when I play in Geelong because I’ve got the family here and the old home crowd. I’ve got to make

sure every one leaves happy or they’ll be on the phone to my mum,” Harvey laughed. “I do plan on getting Troy in a Cats jumper, though, and teaching him the theme song so he fits in when we come down. “I’ll also have to take him out to mum and dad’s place and put him to work.” Adam Harvey and Troy Cassar-Daley will perform at Geelong Performing Arts Centre on November 10.

BY ERIN PEARSON HE MAY still be trying to get his name printed on Fantail wrappers but country music icon Adam Harvey knows he’s on to something good. Born and raised in Geelong, Harvey said he would tour the region with friend and fellow country music artist Troy CassarDaley with a play list of traditional country songs for all ages. Harvey is one of Australia’s most accomplished country music performers, with a career spanning 10 years and awards including seven Golden Guitars. Recently back from a 90-show tour with Beccy Cole, Harvey said he was looking forward to hitting the road again with Cassar-Daley. “Troy came around to my place the other month and we wrote some songs together and he ended up singing on my latest album,” Harvey told the Independent. “Troy likes all the old favorite country songs like I do, so people can expect to see us perform music by the likes of Johnny Cash, Hank Williams, Willie Nelson and Slim Dusty as well as some originals.” Harvey described country music as unique for its songs about life rather than just love and heartache. “People often need to escape and forget their problems and I think that’s what makes country music popular with fans,” he said.

Pre-teen music: The Mighty Buzzniks play at Drysdale on Sunday: Picture: John Warkentin

‘Buzz’ for kids FULL BUFFET ALL YOU CAN EAT at Potato Shed LUNCH & DINNER Adults $21.95 Seniors $14.95 Kids $9.95

BY ERIN PEARSON HE STARTED on a mission to bond parents and children through music. Now Jamie Saxe has caught the entertainment bug. Saxe said his six-piece, The Mighty Buzzniks, embodied what a Dr Seuss rock band would look like. Saxe said the band wanted to bridge the gap between pre-school and “pre-packaged teen pop”. “When you become parents you see there’s lots of music for really little kids but from four to 10 years of age they have to go up to teenage music but that music isn’t really appropriate,” he said.

“So I started writing songs where I could utilise lots of different genres and styles to create stories and lyrics that relate to children. “I soon realised that playing live in front of children is really fun to do.” The Mighty Buzzniks has written soundtracks for children’s television programs and performed around Australia at events like Warrnamboool’s Fun4Kids, and Federation Square New Year’s Eve party. Saxe said the group’s latest album, Bug Out, offered songs about sports and bullying. Giant talking chickens and treehugging robots were among the odd-ball characters that inspired the

songs’ “bum-shaking fun”, he said. “On the ground there’s a huge desire for something new, energetic and sophisticated, without the cheese. “This is the force that drives us to mix modern sounds with themes and words that are relevant to kids’ lives.” The Mighty Buzzniks will perform in Geelong as part of a Family Fun Day at Drysdale this weekend. Venue Manager Rob Macleod said the day would also feature a range of free, healthy, artsinspired activities for children and families. The Mighty Buzzniks will perform at The Potato Shed on Sunday.

RSL’s warm welcome eelong RSL wants everyone to know they’re welcome. Manager Chris Bennett says, despite common misconceptions, anybody can become a member. “We’re here for everyone,” he says. “You don’t have to be a soldier or soldier’s relative, you can be whoever you like.” Chris says the most anyone pays for membership is just $35 but non-members are also welcome to come and enjoy some of the facilities. The club’s Belmont building has just undergone major refurbishments, expanding the car park to fit 155 cars and sprucing up the front of the building. Members pay only $8.50 for lunches and $3.50 for pots of beer.

Regular meal and show nights start on October 28, kicking off with Iconic Australian rock star Ronnie Charles. Tickets for the show and its two-course meal of either scotch fillet steak or chicken cost $45 a head, $80 a couple or $380 for a table of 10. A different guest will perform each month. On October 31 members can get lucky at the quarterly giveaway night when $2800 of prizes from Ross Parke The Good Guys will be up for grabs. Geelong RSL also features a large function room with a fully serviced bar and kitchen, which can be booked for any occasion for about $250 a night. Staff will organise food packages for individual needs.

The course provides a stepping stone for ongoing sporting careers and a lifetime of physical health.” National Ready Steady Go Kids Director Stuart Derbyshire is delighted to welcome the Dodds to the team. “Their passion for working with children and love for sport make Carmen and Byron the ideal candidates to expand our network,” Mr Derbyshire says. “Families in the area are undoubtedly going to benefit from their dedication and extensive experience. “With term four commencing, we’re looking forward to welcoming more children to the classes and giving them a chance to benefit from the program.” Term four enrolments are available by visiting readysteadygokids.com.au or phoning 1300 766 892.

eelong Aquatic Centre believes its quality teachers, facilities and water make children smarter. The centre and students’ parents participated in national research under Griffiths University’s Professor Robyn Jorgensen, finding that early-years swimming made children smarter, more sociable and confident and better at interacting with peers. Children enjoy the aquatic environment at the centre while listening to teachers and following their instructions. The water provides a wonderful medium for children as young as infants to absorb a range of stimuli. Children can participate in learn-to-swim programs before they can walk. No other sport offers young children the same scope for participation. Geelong Aquatic Centre has parents in the water with their children from the age of four months. As well as encouraging participation and enjoyment in water, swimming lessons have many other benefits. A child familiar with water from an early age has an advantage over others afraid or inexperienced in aquatic environment other than the bath. Children who are happy and confident in water can think of ways to get out of any difficulties and will be more likely to learn to swim quickly, safely and enjoyably. Geelong Aquatic Centre offers an ideal environment for children and infants. The specialist learnto-swim facility has no distractions such as water slides or aqua aerobics lessons. • Children are also supervised when swimming. • The centre also offers: • warm water at 32C; • warm air to retain body heat; • passionate, caring, dedicated, trained staff; • a sequential, developmentally based, fun program;

hree-year-old Taegan Dodds is just like any other preschooler: energetic, eager to learn and he knows exactly what he wants. So when Taegan recently attended a free Ready Steady Go Kids trial class and didn’t want to leave his mum knew she was onto something. Taegan’s parents, Carmen and Byron Dodds, were so impressed with the multi-sport program they bought their own franchise and are expanding the network into Melbourne’s western suburbs, Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula in time for term four. “Until that first class all we wanted was to find a fun, age-appropriate way to encourage our son’s development” Mrs Dodds says. “But Byron and I loved the program as much as Taegan did and we felt that more children in our area should be able to benefit. “With the intensive expansion of Point Cook and Geelong we saw the need for increased access to sporting activities for children in the area and are proud to be bringing this high-quality program to these family focused communities.” As a parent trained in delivering the physiodesigned program and as an occupational therapist with experience in paediatrics, Mrs Dodds is qualified to recognise the advantages of the program. “Ready Steady Go Kids takes on a holistic approach to children’s development,” she says. “The program not only teaches preschoolers the fundamentals of 10 different sports but also promotes self-esteem, a love of sport and physical activity and teaches skills preparing children from as young as two and a half for their journey into school. “What appealed to us about Ready Steady Go Kids was its reputation, the variety of sports on offer, the non-competitive nature and the structure

Giulietta’s back in a new look BY ERIC BLAIR he Giulietta name has been used by Alfa Romeo since the mid1950s and we’re delighted to see it back after too many years of the legendary Italian marque following the German line by using a bland numbering system to identify its cars. Launched at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show the new Giulietta replaces the Alfa 147. There’s a new styling approach to the Giulietta. Though Alfa Romeo has been using the disguised door handle theme for several years, the designers have excelled themselves with the looks of the new model. They have narrowed the lines of the cabin to further give the visual impression that this an exciting coupe, not a workaday hatch. Alfa Romeo won’t be disappointed it if pulls buyers up from the Corolla, Honda Civic and Mazda3 class as well. With a starting price of just $36,990 (plus on-roads) the Giulietta will prove tempting to potential buyers considering the top end versions of these established Japanese cars. Initially the Alfa Romeo Giulietta comes to Australia in two formats, both with turbo-petrol engines. One uses the high-tech 1.4-litre MultiAir setup aimed at providing economy and fun. The other is the new

1750 engine (a much loved name with Alfa owners) in the high-performance Giulietta QV. The 1.4 engine produces 125 kilowatts of power, the 1750 a very desirable 173 kW. Strong torque is a feature of any turbocharged engine and these Alfa units illustrate this, with up 250 Nm and 340 Nm respectively. Note that these figures are with the Alfa’s electronic system set in the D (Dynamic) mode. The Italian machines went safely around bends at speeds that wouldn’t have been considered possible in what is after all a family hatchback in the latter years of the 21st century. While we love the styling of this latest Alfa Romeo, the thick windscreen pillars create blinds spots, in some situations the big door mirrors come into the equation as well and spoil the driver’s view of a fair bit. Comfort was good in the Giulietta 1.4, but the QV may be best left to lovers of sporting cars as it’s pretty firm on normal roads and can thump about at times on rough bush roads. Alfa Romeo’s all-new Giulietta combines fun with function, style with spaciousness, and at the same time provides the character that lovers of Italian cars crave. It seems sure of carving out a neat niche for itself in Australia.

sense in an era when people are finally coming to realise the probable effects we are having on the atmosphere of the planet on which we all live. That engine size of 1.5 litres is interesting in a time when most competitors in cars of this size have 1.8litre units. Top torque is generated a very-high 4800 rpm, but the 145 Nm is impressive from an engine of this size. Peak power is 88 kW, again good for an engine of this size. And the spread of the torque isn’t too bad, with a healthy amount being offered below about 2000 rpm. The automatic works nicely with the engine characteristics and is willing to change down a gear or two to get the revs to somewhere near its torque peak. While it may come from one of Honda’s plants in Thailand, rather than from Japan, it has been screwed together well and seems sure to stand the test of time. Honda City sedan is very much a car for the times. It is aimed at providing a comfortable car with excellent fuel economy to those who can think outside the square. It provides good equipment levels and that slight aura of prestige you don’t get in many cars in this class.

BY ERIC BLAIR lthough it’s around the same size as Honda’s popular Jazz hatchback, the City sedan is significantly longer, indeed it isn’t a lot smaller than its big brother the Civic. However, that’s not a fair comparison, because a reasonable bit of the added size in current model cars is due to extra length in the nose to provide crash protection for both occupants and pedestrians. The City has good head and legroom front and rear. The front seats are a decent size and offer better support than is normal in vehicles of this size. The flat floor in the rear seat area means three adults can be carried, though two and a child would be a more reasonable limit. Honda City is impressively quiet for a small sedan, with little increase in sound levels when on coarse surfaces. Handling is competent, with the City being happy to turn into corners and stable once in them. Fuel economy and low emissions are high on the list of features of the Honda City. Economy is obtained by using a smaller than average engine for a car of this size, at 1.5 litres. But this capacity makes a lot of

sport Cats to have jump on Roos GEELONG Cricket Club claimed its second win of the Premier Cricket season when it destroyed Footscray Edgewater last Saturday. Batting first, the Cats compiled 5/270 from their 50 overs at the crease, with Micah Buchanan and Jacob Thorne looking in supreme touch to score 71 and 82 respectively. With the ball, Geelong’s openers struggled to have an impact as Footscray Edgewater moved to 52 without loss. But two quick run-outs swung the momentum before Jeremy Hart ripped through the middle order to claim the astonishing figures of 4/9 from four overs. Michael Condy took three wickets of his own to help dismissing the visitors for just 92. On Sunday, however, Richmond ended the Cats’ perfect start to the year with a six-wicket win at Central Reserve. Geelong batted first but never really got going to finish all out for 161 in the 45th over. Micah Buchanan top-scored with just 38. Richmond slumped to 3/31 but from then on the bowlers struggled to have an impact. Saturday features another one-day game, this time at Junction Oval against North Melbourne, which

Local Cricket JIM TIMBERLAKE Geelong has enjoyed plenty of success against in the past. Geelong Cricket Association commences round three on Saturday in the first two-day fixtures of the season. In the match of the round, reigning premier Geelong West takes on South Barwon in a game both sides will consider as a chance to see where they sit in the scheme of the things. The Rams have hit the ground running in their title defence with two victories so far but the quality of the opposition has not been the same standard they will encounter here. Damian Vassilou has been

in fine form with two half centuries, while Craig Allthorpe and Glen Talarico have enjoyed some success with the ball. The Swans sit mid-table with one win and one loss. The win, against Leopold last week, was by the narrowest of margins of one run in the final over. Phil Halbish looks like he will trouble plenty of batsmen but, to be fair, he’ll need support from his younger bowlers. With the bat, the addition of Clinton Peake at the top of the order looks ominous. As always, the team with the most contributors will win and Geelong West looks to have a moreeven spread. Selections: ST JOSEPH’S v Bell Post Hill, Manifold Heights v HIGHTON, GROVEDALE v North Geelong, GEELONG WEST v South Barwon, Leopold v EAST BELMONT, Lara v NEWTOWN & CHILWELL. Torquay looks like again being a force to be reckoned with in division two. Undefeated so far, the Tigers take on a new-look Alexander Thomson this round in a game evenly matched on paper. The Vikings have lost Sean Arnott and Lucas Benci but have added Marcus Cowdery and Justin

Larkins to their squad. For the Tigers, veteran Stephen Alsop has begun the season brightly with 95 runs in his side’s narrow win over Thomson last week, while Terry Hill claimed three wickets. Torquay should win but an upset would not surprise. Selections: Guild St Mary’s v WAURN PONDS, ST ALBAN’S BREAKWATER v Newcomb & District, Murgheboluc v GEELONG CITY, Bell Park v MARSHALL, St Peter’s v THOMSON. Bannockburn earned a welcome win last week against Corio Bay in a result North Shore will be desperate to emulate when the two sides meet in division three. Bannockburn had five batsmen scoring in the 20s last Saturday, which was slightly disappointing, but Pat Richards made sure he cashed in with 121 in his team’s massive 299. North Shore looks set to really struggle this season, with a host of players having left over the winter. I fear this game could be one of a few blowouts against North Shore this season. Selections: Teesdale v MODEWARRE, INVERLEIGH v Corio, Shelford v MEREDITH, WINCHELSEA v Corio Bay, LETHBRIDGE v Little River.

Snapper’s snapper a big noise among personal bests on bay On the bite BRIAN LONG ANGLERS who put in the hours had some outstanding snapper captures over the past week. None was better than the 9.3kg monster landed by Geelong Independent photographer Tommy Ritchie from the inner-harbour last Friday evening. Tommy said he’d like to apologise to nearby anglers for all the screaming as he landed his first big red. Other anglers also caught personal-best snapper. Belmont’s Russell Blair caught a fantastic fish just off Yarra St in the middle of the afternoon, which just goes to show that not all the best captures are taken after dark. The area between St Helens and Corio Quay hosted most of the snapper action, with the two hours leading up to and after high tide best. Simon Dantino found snapper off Clifton Springs, catching fish on bait then following up with soft plastics. Some of his best captures topped 6kg. Stephen Jones found fish on the bend of the channel off the Springs, catching and releasing seven fish to about 5kg on soft plastics. Paul Graham trolled with Tail Dancers between Point Henry and Clifton Springs for two snapper, six flathead and a huge pike just over 1m long. Paul noted plenty of fish on his sounder but found them difficult to tempt. Stingaree Bay’ spoil grounds were rewarding,

Screamer: Tommy Ritchie with his 9.3kg snapper. with snapper, flathead, whiting and pike all taken in reasonable numbers. Early morning saw most of the action. Peter Sharp trolled along Alcoa Pier with small laster lures to catch salmon, mostly just over 1kg. Whiting were taken from many areas, with good fishing in shallow water generally under 3.5m.

Great For Geelong

Edwards Point, Grassy Point and Hermsley were all productive, with fresh squid and pippies the best baits. Joel Kramer fished the entrance to Swan Bay where he took plenty of whiting along with a few big salmon. Joel also caught a flathead of 2.2kg on a Squidgy Wriggler in the Bloodworm colour.

Plenty of squid were available along the inshore grass beds, with reports jigs in the 3 and 3.5 sizes working the best. Trevally and snapper were caught from the Queenscliff cut. Soft plastics accounted for the bigger numbers of fish. Perry St John headed to Fairhaven amid strong wind looking for a salmon. It turned out to be a great choice, with Perry enjoying a hot three-hour session on fish ranging from 900grams to 1.5kg. Black Rock was productive for snapper either side of 1kg during the two hours leading up to dark. Redfin continued biting in the Barwon River upstream of Buckley Falls to the junction of the Leigh River. Worm baits and Atomic shads and Rapala lures worked a treat. Carp were taken between Queen’s and Fyans parks on corn or bread baits. Anglers should use a berley to attract and hold the fish. Trout reports improved as the week progresses. Lake Tooliorook produced fish to 1.5kg, with bait clearly best. Deep Lake returned fish on Powerbait, with small, bibbed lures also taking trout around 1kg and 1.5kg. Stuart Haberman fished the top arm of West Barwon Reservoir to grass a couple of nice brown trout, his best 1.6kg. Stuart used a Rapala CD5 in the Muddler pattern. Six-hundred rainbow trout were liberated into North Geelong’s Seagull Lake ahead of this Sunday’s Nelson Junior Fishing Clinic. The free competition runs from 9am to 1pm for children aged to 16.
