School of rock tunes up for lessons in music industry Bridge fight ‘to minister’ BY KIM WATERS STUDENTS at Drysdale’s St Ignatius College are preparing to rock out next week with Australia’s longest-running education and entertainment tour. Rock the Schools manager Neal Dennis said the event’s “action packed” free program included handson workshops, a careers seminar and a lunchtime concert. “The program was brought over from New Zealand and gives kids lacking in music knowledge the chance to nurture their future in the industry.” Mr Dennis said the program received “rave reviews” from Bellarine Peninsula students last year. “The kids absolutely love it. We’ve never had anything other than rave reviews, with kids jumping up and down and going crazy at the lunchtime concerts. “A lot of students come up after the workshops and say that they always wanted a career in the industry but didn’t know how they could make it happen until now. St Ignatius music teacher Linda Pape described the event as “spectacular”. “More and more” kids were looking to careers in the music industry as sound engineers, stylists or managers, she said. “Now that we have our music VET course it’s not just about being a music teacher or playing an instrument any more.”

BY KIM WATERS RESIDENTS have “bypassed” council and gone to Victoria’s Planning Minister over a proposed bridge connecting their land to a new residential estate, according to a lead objector. John Boland said 864 residents in the area surrounding Bayshore Avenue and Kewarra Drive had signed a petition against the bridge to direct “hundreds” of vehicles past their homes daily. Objectors took their petition directly to Planning Minister Matthew Guy this week, Mr Boland said. “We’ve been really disappointed with council. After years of this debate we decided to bypass council and go directly to State Government to get this sorted out. “We had a very good reception from the minister’s office and we expect a decision in the next week or so.” Residents thought they had defeated the Grigg Creek bridge plan with a 244-signature petition in 2008 before discovering the proposal had been revived earlier this year. “Our roads aren’t wide enough to take all the traffic for this new development and we have a lot of elderly people and young children in this area,” Mr Boland said. Mr Guy’s spokesperson confirmed the minister had received the petition. “The minister’s office…will now consider the issues contained within it.” Councillor Rod Macdonald said in April that bridge planning provisions, including designs to “discourage” non-local traffic, would help maintain neighbourhood amenity.

Plovers ‘slaughtered’ Mr Murray accused dog walkers of “continually” ignoring the rules. The Independent reported in August that the borough introduced the on-leash regulations after a four-month battle with residents fighting a proposed total dog ban on the beach. Residents presented council with a 712-signature petition and more than 105 submissions against the proposal. Dog owners rejected claims

that walking their pets threatened plovers nesting between Fellows and Buckleys Roads. Mr Murray called for “stricter” enforcement of the on-leash rule. “People seem to think birds are only vulnerable on the upper beach, so they take their dogs off the leash near the rock shelves but some of the birds hatch there,” he said. “It shows that residents need to obey these signs – they’re there

for a reason. “The signs are pretty self explanatory and it’s not too much to ask that dog walkers take notice of them so we can protect these birds.” Mr Murray said 60 to 90 eggs hatched over the past five years but only three birds survived. “Public education is really the first step to protecting the hooded plovers and we need more volunteers involved in monitoring this

stretch of beach.” A borough document said bylaws officers caught five dog walkers with unleashed pets over two months earlier this year. The officers gave the residents verbal warnings but no fines. “The hooded plover breeding was not highly successful over spring/summer, where chicks from one nest between 2W and 3W in early November (laid in

late October) within the Borough of Queenscliff did not survive,” the document said. A borough spokesperson said councillors recently voted to “continue a community education process” backing Bird Australia’s push for a volunteer group to help protect the plovers. Council also voted in favour of funding more nest-protection fencing and signage, the spokesperson said.

BY KIM WATERS DOGS are killing endangered hooded plovers at Point Lonsdale despite new signs demanding use of leashes, according to a Bird Australia volunteer. John Murray said he had watched the population of beachdwelling birds dwindle after Borough of Queenscliffe tightened dog regulations during the plover breeding season.

Bells man ‘facing 12 years’ in Bali jail

423352-FB21-9

BY ERIN PEARSON BELLS Beach’s Ricky Rawson faces up to 12 years in a Bali jail after police arrested him on drug charges, according to an Australian Government spokesperson. Rawson, 48, was charged with possession of narcotics after police arrested him in Seminyak allegedly with two ecstasy pills and .06 grams of methamphetamine. Rawson told media outlets he was just two days away from returning home from a 10-day fishing trip. Indonesian authorities are holding

Trade said Rawson had appointed a lawyer. He would also receive assistance from Australian consular officers. Indonesia’s Kerobokan jail currently houses 13 Australians. Denpasar drug squad chief Major Ambariyadi told Australian media that Rawson had allegedly admitted using drugs he bought from an unknown person in the Kuta area. Major Ambariyadi said Rawson allegedly paid about 400,000 rupiah, or $A44, for the methamphetamine and about 300,000 rupiah, $A33, for each ecstasy pill.

Up in smoke: Firefighters battle the blaze on Tuesday night.

BY ERIN PEARSON A BUSINESSMAN has expressed devastation at losing “18 years of hard work” in a fire at Grovedale on Tuesday night. Christie Tyler Furniture owner Sam Cortorillo said he watched his business and two neighbouring stores go up in flames. “It’s going to be a very long process to get the business back to what it was,” he said. “When I got the phone call my heart just dropped, we are all shattered.” About 50 firefighters spent three hours battling the blaze at the corner of Marshalltown and Torquay roads. Police later closed Marshalltown Road temporarily while investigators sifted through the gutted buildings. Police described the fire as suspicious. Mr Cortorillo estimated the blaze

would cost his business more than $800,000. He expected to close for three months before opening in a temporary location. “We’ll get back on our feet, I guarantee it.” CFA operations officer Mark Sinkinson said firefighters rushed to the blaze about 8.30pm to find the buildings “well alight”. The store was believed to have started in Mr Cortorillo’s sofa store before quickly spreading to Parts 4 Automotive and Middy’s Data and Electrical. “It was a rapidly moving fire. It developed in the front of the building and, while firefighting tried to control the spread of the blaze, there was just too much fuel within the building.”

Beach smoking bans set to spread in area HAVE YOUR SAY Mail: Email: Fax:

PO Box 407, Geelong, 3220 editorial@geelongindependent.com.au 5221 3823

Byrne said councillors would soon discuss the MAV proposal. “While we haven’t adopted a position as yet, it appears to be almost a logical progression given the moves in other councils and in outdoor policies,” he said. “We’d like to see a consistent approach and that’s why we tend to

work with the MAV on these types of issues.” Hobsons Bay Council recently became the third Victorian municipality to ban beachgoers from lighting up. The ban will outlaw smoking on every bayside beach from Altona to Elwood. Smokers who indulged on the beaches face fines of $200. City of Port Phillip, covering beaches from Port Melbourne to Elwood, introduced similar laws last summer. Surf Coast Shire was Victoria’s first municipality to implement a beach smoking ban in 2008 after the Independent reported a Surfrider

Foundation call for the by-law, which earned the support of Quit Victoria. The organisation said several other Victorian councils also had forms of outdoor smoking bans. However, Victoria lagged behind New South Wales where 79 municipalities have introduced outdoor smokefree policies. Quit Victoria said public bans were critical in “de-normalising’’ smoking. MAV has sought input from councils on proposals to ban smoking in children’s playgrounds, sport facilities, parks, reserves and alfresco dining areas.

Thousands celebrate Geelong’s role model of ‘nice’ BY ERIN PEARSON A LAST round of applause marked the farewell for legendary Geelong footballer Bob Davis at his funeral in St Mary’s Basilica on Tuesday. Almost 2000 mourners attended the public funeral for Davis who died last week aged 82. Stars of sport and television attended to say goodbye to the man who played 189 VFL games for the Cats between 1948 and 1958 and coached the team to its 1963 premiership. League Teams co-host Lou Richards, The Footy Show’s Sam Newman, Premier Ted Baillieu and match caller Rex Hunt joined the crowd. Guy Davis remembered his father as funny, friendly and charming. “We were lucky to have him as a father, a grandfather, a protector, a role model and a friend. “He was my mate. We love you Bob and we will miss you so much.” Former Cats president Frank Costa said Davis “brought hope” with him to Kardinia Park. Davis, who leaves behind wife Margaret, five children and five grandchildren, also left a lasting impression on Australian television. Channel Seven’s Sandy Roberts told the Independent his former colleague could “light up any room”. “You always walked away happier after meeting Bob,” he said. Collingwood president Eddie Maguire remembered Davis as a role model. “Bob was a tremendous entertainer and I took his spirit into my career after watching him for years,” Maguire told the Independent. “He made us all fall in love with football. He led my career.” Father Kevin Dillon urged mourners to learn from the Geelong Flyer as his coffin left the basilica draped in white lilies. “We can pay the ultimate tribute by leaving here today a little less selfish, a little more resilient and look at life with a bit of humour,” Fr Dillon said. “Bob knew the power of nice.”

PARAMEDICS have put a man in an induced coma after a three-car collision on the Princes Highway at Little River early Wednesday morning, according to Ambulance Victoria. A spokesperson said the man in his 20s was trapped in a wrecked car for 45 minutes before an air ambulance flew him to Melbourne’s The Alfred hospital.

Timor report A GEELONG councillor has reported to colleagues on his trip to East Timor around eight months after the ratepayer-funded journey. Cr Cameron Granger said he visited the tropical country to “see first-hand” the living conditions and challenges facing residents.

Fractures fall AUSTRALIAN hip fracture rates among the elderly are declining in line with a trend throughout western countries, according to new Geelong research. Deakin University researchers believed improvements in osteoporosis medications might have contributed to the decline of 31 per cent among women and eight per cent for men.

Library resumes WORK HAS resumed on building Lara Library, according to council. A statement from City Hall said Rendine Constructions had taken over the project after the previous building contractor stopped work without explanation and failed to respond to council enquiries.

Ambo awards AMBULANCE Victoria has presented awards and medals for service to 21 staff from Geelong to Apollo Bay, according to a spokesperson. The presentations acknowledged staff who had served with Ambulance Victoria from 10 to 30 years, the spokesperson said.

Sports nod COUNCILLORS have approved plans for a new sports precinct on a 45-hectare site next to Drysdale and Clifton Springs. Councillor Rod Macdonald said council would now investigate funding options for the project, which would feature “premier level” playing fields, lighting and a pavilion near the intersection of Portarlington and Grubb roads.

Salvos call RISING living costs for struggling families across the region makes this year’s Red Shield Appeal more important than ever, according to The Salvation Army. The Salvos have appealed for residents to donate toward the appeal as collectors knocked on doors for the appeal this weekend. Flyer’s farewell: Bob Davis leaves St Mary’s Basilica on Tuesday.

Mayor’s trip to New York ‘an investment, not junket’ BY KIM WATERS GEELONG ratepayers should consider their mayor’s $5800 trip to America an “investment” in the future rather than a “junket”, according to councillors. Mayor John Mitchell defended the 12-day trade delegation trip to New York next month, saying its “economic and social benefits far outweigh the minimal cost”.

Crash coma

Alcoa initially invited him onto the delegation as part of celebrations marking 100 years since Geelong was proclaimed a city, he said. Cr Mitchell’s itinerary included talking with Alcoa World Wide Group’s board and meeting cruise ship industry representatives. He also planned to promote Geelong as an off-season training base for New York Yankees baseball club.

Cr Mitchell’s itinerary included a Yankees game, sightseeing in New York and three days in Los Angeles. This trip will follow Cr Rod Macdonald’s flight to New York next month for a three-day forum on “preparing” Geelong for the arrival of broadband services. Councillors defended the mayor’s trip before approving it at a council meeting this week. Cr Bruce Harwood said other coun-

cils in the region were “quite envious we can do this”. “It is a shock to some residents in Geelong that there is life outside Little River and Winchelsea,” he said. “If you don’t go, you’ll never know.” Cr Barbara Abley said councillors would be considered “fools” if the mayor did not join the delegation. “I can’t see any room in here for junkets…the itinerary is jam packed.”

inside the project indicated that John Holland intends to vet all workers coming onto the job,” Mr Gooden said. “John Holland has already rejected some Geelong workers because of their union membership status. “We want this project to go ahead with more local content so the people of Geelong benefit economically as well. “We are horrified to discover John Holland still has a blacklist in this day and age and we will not consider the

negotiations to be in good faith until John Holland and Barwon Water throw their blacklist of Geelong workers in the bin and come to the bargaining table with clean hands.” Mr Gooden said 12 workers on site for the earthworks stage of construction were on a base rate of $22 an hour with a $3 site allowance, which undercut the standard industry agreements by almost a third. Federal Government has committed

$20 million to the project, Victoria $9 million, Shell $47.5 million and Barwon Water $17.5 million. The plant, scheduled for completion late next year, will treat sewage and trade waste from Geelong’s northern suburbs to produce Class A recycled water for Shell Geelong Refinery and nearby public sports grounds. John Holland had not returned the Independent’s call for comment when the paper went to press.

Bashing victim plans ‘self-defence lessons’

Bashing victim David.

man apparently became violent and “pushed” the woman. Victoria Police Constable Hannah Smith said the man punched David to the face “numerous” times before continuing the attack with kicks when he fell to the ground. A friend picked up David but the man resumed the attack, knocking him to the ground again, Const Smith said. The man and woman fled in a taxi from which they ran away without paying.

David vowed he would “do it all again” if he encountered a similar situation. “I might get some self-defence lessons,” he laughed. “It’s just what you do.” David said his injuries had forced him to take leave from a new hospitality job after eight months seeking work. He was concerned about explaining the injuries to his children but told them he was hurt while trying to do the right thing.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN SITE agreement negotiations on work to build a $94 million sewage treatment plant at North Shore are being dragged through the sewer, according to unions. The unions claimed a breakthrough this week in their protest against contractor John Holland’s alleged blacklisting of some Geelong workers from the site. Geelong Trades and Labour Council secretary Tim Gooden said a dawn protest on Wednesday shut the gates to the Barwon Water project. John Holland then agreed to re-open talks this Friday after the company “pulled the pin” last Monday, Mr Gooden said. He blamed the breakdown on John Holland undercutting industry-standard site agreements. “We held the protest to force John Holland back to the negotiating table. They have tried to devolve industrial responsibility to their five major labour hire contractors but we want to talk to John Holland directly. “John Holland wants to have their cake and eat it too. They claim they have no industrial responsibility but still want to pull the strings.” Protracted negotiations were close to finalisation when the latest stoush erupted after unions discovered John Holland was blacklisting the Geelong workers. “Not all contractors on the job are from the local area.

Shire seeks ‘southern route for bypass link’ the objective of creating an efficient ring road around Geelong”, the shire said. A State Government panel is reviewing 4C after residents at Grovedale and Waurn Ponds objected to the route’s proximity to their homes. The previous Labor Government set the route but the Coalition initiated the review after winning November’s state election. The panel received 86 submissions before running a five-day hearing process in Geelong this month. Boral Property Group, which employs over 120 Geelong staff through Blue Circle Southern Cement, said the proposed 4C route would hurt

its Waurn Ponds limestone quarry. “A significant portion of the unmined limestone reserves are affected by the proposed alignment,” the group’s submission said. “These limestone reserves are an extremely rare and valuable resource for the state of Victoria.” Geelong Public Transport Users Association’s submission said the 4C alignment would “divide communities north and south of the combined rail and road reserves”. “A six-lane dual-carriageway motorway paralleling the Warrnambool railway line will impede opportunities for necessary transit-oriented development

in Armstrong Creek.” The route earned support from submitters including Armstrong Creek developers, City of Greater Geelong, Department of Sustainability and Environment and Barwon Water. Newland Developers general manager Mark Whinfield said development of “all of the precincts within Armstrong Creek” relied upon the proposed route. The City said the alignment was “the best location”. Regional councils alliance body G21 said it offered the “best opportunity” to integrate Grovedale and Waurn Ponds with Armstrong Creek.

BY KIM WATERS GEELONG’S bypass link to Surf Coast Highway should go further south, according to a council submission to a panel reviewing the route. Surf Coast Shire said the 4C link should go around Geelong’s Armstrong Creek growth area to provide a “seamless, high-speed transition” from Angelsea Road. The shire said the existing proposed route further north would provide slower access to Torquay because motorists would eventually pass through Armstrong Creek traffic controls and speed limits. The proposed route was “contrary to

“Health and fitness is as essential to performance as skills or technical knowledge.” Other competitors were Leaders for Geelong program’s Jean Paul, Gordon TAFE’s Sue Warner, the chamber’s Bernadette Uzelac, Barwon Health’s David Ashbridge, Third Ecology’s Mark Sanders, Mayor John Mitchell and lawyer Andrew Senia. Robyn Reimers, who operates challenge training venue Club Exec, said Ms Slatter was initially sceptical about the benefits of the challenge. “Her previous quests for health and fitness were seriously undermined by her strong belief that no amount of training could change her body shape and physiology. “She can now continue toward her goals with confidence that she can make further gains if she puts her mind to it.”

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN TAC EXECUTIVE Tracey Slatter is the winner of an inaugural challenge to improve the fitness of Geelong office workers. Eight executives accepted the Geelong Chamber of Commerce challenge to promote healthier workplaces. Ms Slatter said her transformation over three months competing in Geelong’s Fittest Exec 2011 was surprising. “I’d done some fitness work before but hadn’t noticed much difference but this has been transformational,” she said. Ms Slatter lost 6kg, worked 14cm from her waist, reduced her “bio-age” by 10 years and doubled her aerobic-cardio fitness levels. “But it’s how good I feel and the energy levels I have that’s the real difference. That translates into productivity,” Ms Slatter said.

Tolerance call as ‘erratic’ refugee riders hit the road 522798-MD21-11

BY KIM WATERS HUNDREDS of refugees riding bicycles “erratically” around Geelong need patience from other road users, according to the head of cyclist safety program. Bike Safe Geelong’s Barton van Laar said 200 refugees were on the road riding to job training, workplaces and employment interviews as part of a Bike2Work program. Demand among Geelong’s refugee community for the program was “quite large”, he said. Cars were too expensive for many refugees who were “very keen” to assimilate themselves into the community. “They can’t afford cars and cycling is a viable alternative,” Mr van Laar said. “It’s really important we teach them road rules. We appeal to the public to understand that these learners might be riding a bit erratically at first.”

Mayor-only poll backed ‘by default’ GEELONG residents should elect a mayor without a deputy to avoid installing a team with a “vision”, according to Municipal Association of Victoria. The association’s submission on introduction of a directly elected mayor next year said councillors should choose the deputy annually to help share the deputy’s “workload”. The association said its

“default position” was support for the mayor-only vote because the Government’s discussion paper did not offer an option to oppose a direct mayoral election. “The MAV does not support the direct election of (a) mayoral team (because it would) inevitably be elected on the basis of an election platform, or vision for the city. It must be

recognised that any vision as such could be quite inconsistent with the actual needs of the diverse communities of City of Greater Geelong.” The association discussion noted the Government had failed to provide a “substantive underlying rationale” for implementing a direct mayoral election.

Mr van Laar said Bike Safe was seeking donations to the program of bicycles, light sets and helmets. Geelong Police and Variety Club of Victoria were helping with donations, he said. Victoria Police Western Region Inspector Carl Peers backed the call for motorists to show tolerance toward the refugee cyclists. “Be patient, give them space and only pass cyclists when it is safe,” he said “They have a legal right to be on the road and in some cases it’s their only means of transport to support their families in getting training or going to work.” Insp Peers praised the initiative. “It’s these types of programs that break down barriers and help build relationships in the wider community. “Police are also very pleased road rules and bike safety are being taught.”

Driving ambition: Aaron Bandy and Matthew Cummings prepare for the Mongol Rally. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 64341

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A PAIR of Grovedale adventurers will tackle an arduous rally from London to Mongolia. Police dispatcher Matthew Cummings and mechanical engineer Aaron Bandy plan to leave for London next month to buy their one-litre racing car and supplies for July’s Mongol Rally. Teams entering the long-running event raise money for charities while driving unsuitable vehicles across Europe and Asia. But the first challenge facing the Grovedale pair was gathering enough donations to their Team Half Way Round. “We have to get our charity donations up - they’re sadly lagging at £35,” Mr Cummings conceded. “We’ll be out in the next month bugging friends, family and businesses into supporting our charities.” Mr Cummings said the team would raise money for Christina Noble Children’s Foundation and WaterAid. The also intended to donate their vehicle to authorities but admitted it may be of little

value after crossing the rugged terrain of countries like Belarus, Kazakhstan and Russia. Mr Cummings said his “uncanny ability” to find his way home from pubs in strange towns would stand him in good stead as the team’s navigator. His preparations included watching Eurotrip, all the National Lampoon vacation movies and buying a travel book on Mongolia. Mr Bandy said he was a mechanic who “taught MacGyver everything he knows”. His preparation comprised a single gym session before Christmas. Despite their light-hearted banter, both men conceded the trip would be dangerous. “There’s a warning on the adventurists website saying the chance of being seriously injured or dying is high,” Mr Bandy said. Mr Cummings said the team was named after Long Way Round, a television documentary series featuring actors Ewan McGregor and Charlie Boorman.

City ‘win’ on fire levy

524013-KS21-11

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN GEELONG businesses have scored a long, hard-fought victory against a fire services levy, according to the city’s chamber of commerce president. Jim Walsh said the levy was a “punitive” impost on regional businesses. State Government has announced a consultation process starting next month on replacing the levy with a “property-based system” to fund fire services. “We’re pleased there’s progress but we look forward to the release of the consulta-

tion process and confirmation it’s a ratesbased system,” Mr Walsh said. “We’re waiting on the detail because there are a number of variables but a rates-based system is what we have been arguing for. “The current system disadvantages regional businesses versus metropolitan businesses and penalises those that insure over those who do not.” The fire service levy is charged on insurance holders’ premiums, providing funding of $600 million a year for country and metropolitan fire services. Mr Walsh said the levy had been up to 70

per cent for regional businesses, which he described as “a staggering level of tax”. Treasurer Kim Wells said the Government would release a position paper in June before engaging in a “comprehensive public consultation process” on the proposed design and implementation of the new levy. “The Government intends to introduce legislation in early 2012 and there will be a transition period that will commence on 1 July, 2012, to allow insurers to phase out the FSL prior to full implementation from 1 July, 2013.”

Numbers up as hunters ‘have a blast’

Hidden Treasures ... Buy or Sell with

Star Trader Feathered friends: Duck shooting opponents Elise Andersen and Tony Murphy at Reedy Lake. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 64709

BY ERIN PEARSON DUCK shooting has radically declined across the Geelong region this season, according to animal activists. Coalition Against Duck Shooting’s David Mould said shooting destinations such as Lake Connewarre, Hospital Swamp and Reedy Lake were hosting a handful of shooters each weekend compared to hundreds five years ago. “We’re only seeing the hardcore element out there and that’s a small minority.” But Geelong Gun and Rod Association’s Mick Veitch said hunter numbers only appeared smaller this year because they were spread out over increased shooting destinations. Duck-hunting licenses were up 33 per cent, he said. “Everybody’s been very happy with the amount of waterfowl around.”

City shoppers ‘going frugal’ BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN CENTRAL Geelong must ride “the tide of consumer change” toward frugality and convenience, according to a shopping trends expert. Directional Insights managing director Helen Bakewell said impact on regional retailing was already apparent. “Retail is always changing and evolving, so we need to accommodate change and not fight it,” Ms Bakewell said. “The majority of Australians prefer to shop in enclosed centres with easy access, undercover parking, everything in one place. “Post-GFC Australian shopper behaviour has changed, with an increasing interest in food shopping and frugality.

“Women, the primary shoppers in Australia, are shopping as frequently as they did in 2009. However they now more often identify themselves as mission shoppers – shopping for a reason – rather than leisure shoppers. Ms Bakewell said central Geelong could have a bright future with “good planning, initiative and preparedness to change”. Directional Insights this month released its biennial Consumer Shopping Benchmarks 2011 survey, revealing food as a new fashion among consumers. The survey arrived as a Commonwealth Bank Business Sales Indicator showed retail sales slumping 1.4% in April, the biggest fall of all industry sectors.

Geelong Traders Association president Hayden Spurling said consumers were reducing debt, like mortgages, while battling rising costs of living, which reduced disposable income. “Customers are more mindful of where and how they spend and it has led to more on-line shopping. People are also tending to eat more at home, fuelled by the popular cooking shows on television. “More retail and restaurant space is becoming available but it’s fighting for a viable share in a smaller market.” Mr Spurling predicted a revival of quality strip shopping. “Retailing is still about creating an experience but has to be offered differently.”

IT SOUNDS like the start of a joke: What do you get when you combine hockey with water polo? The answer is more intriguing that it is funny: Underwater hockey, played at Norlane Waterworld every Wednesday evening. “It’s not everyone’s cup of tea but once you give it a go you find its really good fun,” says Geelong Underwater Hockey League’s Stuart McCallum. Stuart describes himself as the club’s chief organiser, promotions officer, secretary, treasurer and coach. He said Geelong players had often been selected for state and national teams and the club had provided up to a third of the Victorian junior team. “The beauty of this activity is it’s great for all takers - any age group or gender,” Stuart said. “It’s very safe – we don’t get many injuries.” The club has been involved in a Leisure Networks program to create healthy sporting environments for “culturally and linguistically diverse” (CALD) participants. Masks, snorkels and fins are supplied for first-timers. The club also hosts a number of school groups, most recently from Geelong, Western Heights and Matthew Flinders colleges. “Once people have been playing for a while they often get their own gear,” Stuart explained. “It’s a great family activity – there aren’t many sports that can

buckets & bouquets BUCKETS to the person who designed the so-called shelters at Kardinia Park’s netball courts. With up to 5000 people using the courts each week one would think the shelters might be wind and rain-proof, not just a mesh wall. Must have been designed by a man. Wet And Windblown, Torquay

BUCKETS for V/Line for changing the start of the 8.29am train to Melbourne.

Thankful, Lara BUCKETS to a stupid woman who insisted I put my golden retriever on a leash in an off-leash park because she was afraid her show dog would be attacked.

WHAT’S wrong with being rich and why should it preclude anyone going for office as an elected official (Letters, May 13, 20)? Over time we must have had mayors and councillors who were better heeled than others - did their money get them elected to the top spot by their peers? Do objectors to a directly elected mayor suffer the out-dated them-and-us attitude that used to divide our communities? That attitude no longer applies in this day and age when jokes about tradespersons’ charges used to be made about doctors and solicitors. Surely the existing rules on election of councillors would apply to a directly elected mayor, with candidates accounting for all money raised. The depth of candidates’ pockets would worry me less than how many stooges they had standing to ensure a win on preferences. How often would the collective amount spent on the election by a group far outweigh that of a single person?

I once reported on council meetings in a country area. After the advent of a directly elected mayor, who was a successful local businessman, the tenor of the meetings improved. With a strong hand at the helm, the meetings were smoother and more work was completed with less paperwork. A respected member of the community, the mayor received similar respect in and out of the chamber. I would welcome a similar mayor of Geelong, one who understands the wider world of business and is used to handling large amounts of money. Elizabeth Cross Wandana Heights

Directed appendage WHAT would be the benefit to the average ratepayer in the greater Geelong area of a directly elected mayor? We have been manipulated from Spring Street for at least the last 20 years to what effect? Fifty years ago our city had character and heritage similar to Bendigo and Ballarat but

over time it has been eroded so that there is barely any recognisable identity left. Narrowing of our well-planned streets with wide footpaths that nobody uses, planting of tropical trees out of place in this area and alterations to main-street parking have contributed to residents choosing to shop elsewhere. It seems much money will be spent by the people who would benefit most from the election of their selected candidate to the position of mayor with little regard for the real people of the area. Are we destined to become just an appendage of Melbourne or is it already too late? Pricilla Wright Newtown

THE DEPARTMENT of Planning and Community Development discussion paper titled Mayor of Geelong – Direct Election falsely states the people of Geelong want a directly elected mayor. The Baillieu Government has no mandate to impose this on us after winning only one Lower House seat in the region at the 2010 election. I wholly concur with City of Greater Geelong councillors that a properly conducted referendum on the question of a directly elected mayor be held (Independent, May 13), accompanied by cogent arguments for and against such a drastic change. The referendum should ask the question: Do you want a directly elected mayor for Geelong? If the answer was an unambiguous yes then that would be the time to present the people of Geelong with the above-mentioned discussion paper. Jeannette Johanson North Geelong

Campaigner praised I ADMIT that I admire people like Messrs. Worland, Oraniuk, Linaker and Barron (Buckets and Bouquets, May 13). They care what happens to us and around us. Permit me to say a few words about just one of them, Peter Linaker. Mr Linaker once had an important, senior position on our water board. Unfortunately, he couldn’t stop the poisoning of our drinking water with fluoride. Mr Linaker spent his own money on advertising and days organising marches through the city against fluoridation. I feel privileged to have met Mr Linaker. MK Rzeszewski Ocean Grove

Playing the man A SIMPLE sign you are on the path to winning a debate is when the opposition resorts to attacking the person, not the argument, so I was glad to see Alan Barron fall into that trap in his letter to the Independent on May 20. In response to deceptive misrepresentations of Professor Tim Flannery by climate sceptics, I dared to earlier present in the Independent the facts on what he really said about the effect of reducing carbon emissions. Because of this simple correction Mr Barron claimed I had a closed mind. To his credit, he did present some information claiming Earth was cooling. However, the information was wrong. The hottest decade on record was 2000 to 2009 and the previous decade was the next hottest.

ADVERTORIAL Furthermore, to get the full picture on climate change you need to take into account Earth’s total heat content, including land, air, oceans and ice. Even since 1998, the hottest year on record, observable, measurable science has shown the total heat content of Earth has been increasing. Air temperature does not rise steadily every year because it varies more than the total heat content due to winds, currents, cloud cover and other factors. In fact, the hottest year on record was a mindblowing 13 years ago. A couple of cooler years here and there do not disprove global warming. Gavin Brown East Geelong

Thieving bludgers THE FACT someone thinks they can invade your personal belongings is beyond me. I hopped in my car on a 4C morning to head to work only to find everything had been taken. There is no worse feeling than the pain and anguish caused by thieves who leave you violated and vulnerable. What gives them the right to take our hard-earned tax dollars by being on the dole and thinking they can just take the things for which he have worked so hard? Readers, please make sure your cars and houses are locked up. All Australians should pass a test before getting any benefits from government because some just simply don’t deserve it.

Indented Head’s Lyle Grinter and Helen Allan are lucky winners of an Australia-wide Stratco Outback Verandah Patio competition. For purchasing a patio from Designer Pergolas late last year they won a Toyota Prado GX worth $50,000. “We were absolutely rapt one of our customers won,” says Designer Pergolas sales and design coordinator James Ferris. “Even better was that these particular winners were in need of a new car. We must have fitted over a hundred of the patios last year and we joked with the customers about them winning the competition, so it was a huge buzz for us as well.” Designer Pergolas has been a distributor for Stratco since 1989 when director Tony Layton moved into the veranda-patio-andpergola-installation business.

Between 2000 and 2005 Designer Pergolas was outback dealer of the year. James attributes part of that success to the company operating without contract labour. “All staff are in-house, including our installation crews, which provides piece of mind for our clients. They know that we’ll get the job done,” James says. “We also look after all plans and permits for customers.” Designer Pergolas recently relocated to a larger warehouse, with plans in the pipeline for a 380-square-metre showroom. “We should have it up and running soon,” James says. “The showroom will encompass every design option Stratco offers, from verandahs and patios to carports and sunroofs.”

Free at last THE GEELONG Cats seem to be on the end of some very poor umpiring decisions. A free kick awarded against Cameron Ling cost the Cats the preliminary final last year and another awarded to the Blues for a petty ruck infringement almost cost the Cats the game last Friday night. The umpires should put away their whistles in the last minute or so of tight games and not pay petty free kicks when the fate of the game hangs on a kick awarded close to goal. Pay the blatant frees but a petty free should not be awarded in the dying seconds of a game when it unfairly penalises one side. Alan Barron Grovedale

Living large: The Potbelleez will play two gigs in Geelong after touring Australia with Usher. musically, so when you’ve got it and it’s unique,you’ve got to keep true to it. “Our signature sound remains the same, we’ve just gelled more as a group and people will hear our solidarity a lot more.” From performances at the ARIAs on the Sydney Opera House steps to gigs at every major festival in the country,

The Potbelleez have performed across the globe since its breakthrough year in 2007. The band’s music has featured on television programs shows such as So You Think You Can Dance and Australia’s Next Top Model. Some of the group’s singles have achieved number one on both ARIA’s club and dance charts.

“There’s no real rest for us,” Greene said. “We’re very lucky though to be able to make music all week and perform all weekend. “The hardest thing to do in the music industry is to make your career provide for you.” The Potbelleez will be at Rush Nightclub this Friday and Eureka Hotel on July 7.

BY ERIN PEARSON BIG STAGES are large crowds are the future for Australian electro-pop group The Potbelleez, according to DJ/producer Dave Greene. He spoke to the Independent after the four-piece, known for its various hits including Don’t Hold Back and Are You With Me, recently finished a sellout 14-show tour with American music royalty Usher. Greene said the group had caught the big-stage bug. “We just couldn’t believe where we were every night of the week,” he laughed. “The whole thing was such a well-oiled machine, it was amazing to see. “We loved the big stage. Now we have the hunger for it.” Preparing to embark on its first unsupported solo tour, The Potbelleez will have two gigs in Geelong to perform songs off the latest album Destination Now. Greene said the album, coproduced by Australian dance legend Paul Mac, stayed true to the group’s distinctive dance sound. “Developing a signature sound that people recognise is one of the hardest things to do

> 115g (3/4 cup) self-raising flour

VANILLA BUTTER BISCUITS 1. Line 2 baking trays with non-stick baking paper or use non-stick trays. Use an electric beater to beat the butter, sugar and vanilla essence in a medium bowl, scraping down the side of the bowl when necessary, until just combined. 2. Sift the self-raising and plain flours together into a bowl. Add half the sifted flours to the butter mixture and use a wooden spoon to mix until combined. Add the milk and mix well. 3. Add the remaining sifted flours and, when the mixture becomes difficult to mix with the wooden spoon, use your hand. Mix with your hand until the mixture forms a soft dough that leaves the side of the bowl and doesn’t stick to your hand. If the mixture is a little dry, add an extra 1 tbsp of milk. (There should be no dry bits of dough in the bottom of the bowl.) 4. Roll tablespoonfuls of the dough into balls and then place the balls about 4cm apart on the lined trays. 5. Use a floured fork to flatten the biscuits slightly. Dip the fork in a little flour every second or third ball. (You can also flatten the balls with a lightly floured hand or fingers, the base of a glass or the side of a grater. Any decorative edge can be used to press a pattern into the top of them.) Place the trays in the fridge for 20 minutes to chill. 6. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 160°C. Bake the biscuits, swapping the trays halfway through, cooking for 18-20 minutes or until the biscuits rise, are slightly cracked on top and are light golden underneath. Remove the biscuits from the oven and set aside to cool for about 3 minutes before using a spatula to transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. By S. Harrington of Waurn Ponds 425004-JF21-11

SPHINX ROCK FESTIVAL JUNE LONG WEEKEND

ombard The Paper People is the Geelong region’s one-stop party shop. Since opening in Corio’s Homemaker Centre in late 2009 the store has been ranked one of the top Lombard outlets for turnover rates, proving Geelong residents love to party and know how to throw a great bash. Lombard is a family-owned business that has been in operation for over 40 years. With stores around Australia, Lombard describes itself at the “largest party shops in the universe”. The company recently opened two new stores this year and expects more by the end of 2011. The party shops have all sorts of supplies. A variety of colourful tableware and decorations in themes such as Sponge Bob Square Pants and Disney princesses are available.

Costumes galore and a wide range of balloons are also available, with Lombard’s unique products sure to make great talking points for unforgettable parties. Lombard has an official merchandise licence for AFL and stocks a range of supporter gear. A range for royal wedding products has also been added, with Lombard selling out of all its crowns and tiaras. “We look forward to creating new and exciting products for all sorts of up and coming events,” says marketing coordinator Olivera, “it’s never just another day in the office.” Store manager David Postill and his euphoric team are always eager to assist. With their customer service and expertise they can help design a superior party from start to end.

improved low and mid-range torque plus helps deliver improved economy and reduction in emissions. The bottom line is the MiTo QV sprints to 100 km/h in just 7.5 seconds and has a top speed of 219 km/h. Combined with being able to boost torque to 250 Nm (up from the usual 230 Nm) by using the `Dynamic’ mode switch, and the six speed manual shifter, and the MiTo QV is a feisty piece of kit. The new six-speed gearbox is beautifully matched to the MultiAir engine and is light and smooth. The short version of MiTo has a five star Euro ANCAP safety rating. It achieves this with seven airbags, crash-saving stability program, ABS brakes, EBD, traction control, ASR, cornering brake control, dynamic steering torque, hill holder and a host of other technology including crash sensors and a central `nerve centre’ that takes in all data and decides what is the best action to take. Thanks to the Alfa DNA system you almost get two cars in one with MiTo. Using the `Normal’ driving mode the car is suited to urban driving. Switch to ‘Dynamic’ mode and suddenly your quirky little Alfa sprouts Attitude with a capital `A’. The mode adds 20 Nm of torque and it’s quite apparent as you push the MiTo through the gears. The steering becomes more direct and the chassis flatter as you fling the car around sharp bends like a go-kart. With the engine revving easily out to 6500 rpm and the deft gearbox this is simply a delight for anyone with a love of true motoring. The engine delivers with some urgency, not just in performance, but also in the decibel levels into the cabin. the next bend. The QV also has the new stop/start facility launched recently and it works a lot better with the manual shifter than the new dual clutch transmission used the TCT MiTo variants in conjunction with the Hillstart facility.

BY ERIC BLAIR he Alfa Romeo MiTo isn’t so much a hot hatch as a stylish coupe and one that’s positively stunning in appearance. Styling of the Alfa three-door was done by a design group at the company’s Centro Stile. They’ve come up with an excellent body dominated by big round lights front and rear, a domed roof, sharply rising waistline and a cabin that tapers significantly in width as it approaches its rearwards extremities to give a neat, sporting look. The shape is a bit love-it-or-hate it thanks to the out-there headlights and grille. It’s one of those cars that looks great in some settings and ordinary in others. There’s also good legroom in the back pew, which is surprising given the car’s length at just over four metres. There are seats for five, but really it’s a four-seater. The MiTo QV model (QV stands for `Quadrifoglio Verde’ or green cloverleaf, Alfa Romeo’s symbol) is powered by a high-revving 125 kW turbocharged 1.4-litre MultiAir engine and a chassis that facilitates what you expect from Alfa – superb handling. A hot hatch that fits into the category and at the same time retains the individuality for which Alfa is well known. A glance at the MiTo front is enough to tell you where the car comes from and that there’s a sporty angle to it. Back seat passengers may have some issues with the roof line converging in close to the outside seats limiting headroom. The QV is set apart from other MiTo variants by the cloverleaf badging and exclusive 18inch darkened alloy wheels. MiTo QV features the latest MultiAir engine to come from Fiat’s engine development centre, FPT. The MultiAir design concentrates on a more exact science of taking control of the quantity and characteristics of the air taken into the cylinders during the combustion cycle. This delivers an

eelong’s leading independent motorcycle workshop offers customers a top quality, professional advantage. Motorcycle Service Centre is a VACC-accredited workshop providing manufacturer-approved warranty and log-book servicing for all makes of motorcycles, scooters, ATVs and PWCs from Japan, Europe and USA. The centre’s Rob Jenner says the team is always keen to provide great service and expert solutions. A motorcycle chassis dynamometer has just been installed to assist with performance tuning and fault diagnostics. “In the past we’ve always done a lot of road testing for tuning and fault finding,” Rob says. “We’ll still be doing that but to a much lesser degree. The dyno allows us to run bikes at high speed under load and to literally stand beside them watching and listening.” PWC users can rely on the expert, personalised service of powerski enthusiast Ryan who specialises in all types of two and four-stroke watercraft. After entering both bikes and riders in state and national level road racing championships, Rob can offer racers and track-day riders expert help in all facets of sport and track bike service, set up and performance enhancement. Dirt bikes are catered for, with riders able to take advantage of the centre’s many years of experience in repair and service. Motorcycle Service Centre covers all types of maintenance and repairs including engine and transmission reconditioning, restorative services, general repairs and parts, suspension overhauls, track-day set ups and roadworthiness certificates. The centre is an approved crash repairer, working with Shannons, Swann, QBE, RACV and InsureMyRide among others. Business hours are 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Friday at 336 Portarlington Road, Moolap.

sport Surf’s up as salmon on fire along coast On the bite BRIAN LONG SALMON fishing in the surf improved again over the past week, with the best yet to come. Fairhaven and Eastern View were on fire, with lure casting providing some outstanding sessions. Last Saturday Brendan Sheedy, my wife Jeanette and I had a ball catching and releasing over 50 fish, with the best just over 1kg. A follow-up session the following day produced fish in smaller numbers but after a shift to Cinema Point the salmon were coming thick and fast, plenty caught and released again. Simon D’Antino also found the salmon at Eastern View but most were under 1kg. He moved to the rocks just before Lorne and caught fewer but of better quality, with some whoppers lost while trying to lift them up the rock face. Gerry Forbes found a big shoal harassing bait inside the reef at Hut Gully. Casting small, metal, baitfish-profile lures he landed a dozen, the best 2.3kg. Darryl Stirling had similar results at the mouth of the Erskine River on the run-up to high tide. Salmon were also caught at Jan Juc and Breamlea, although not in the numbers experienced further down the coast. Queenscliff cut produced some awesome trevally on soft plastics, particularly Turtleback worms in the Green Pumpkin fished an hour either side of high tide. Noel Hutchins put in a late-night session at the mouth of Swan Bay where he caught two magnificent gummy shark weighing just over 8kg each on fresh squid. Anglers fishing the 20m line off St Leonards landed both snapper and gummy sharks, with the best captures before daylight and up to 9am. Charlie and Frank Chapman had two outings chasing whiting off Clifton Springs, catching their combined bag limits both times as the tide ran off from high. Plenty of squid were still available from the shallow grass beds between Clifton Springs and Hermsley. The key to success has been fishing in around 2m of water with small, generally 2.5-size jigs. The best reports were from anglers using Black Magic squid snatchers, which seem to balance perfectly. Corio Bay’s inner and outer harbours still hosted big shoals of salmon. The fish showed up consistently at Eastern Beach, Griffin Gully, St Helens and the quarries. The cooler conditions apparently kept many anglers from venturing out after dark for big snapper but the few prepared

to put in the hard hours enjoyed results, with over a dozen fish better than 5kg landed. The fish were biting from just before dark until 10pm. Anglers fishing close to the retaining wall at Royal Geelong Yacht Club landed a mixed bag, with salmon and snapper dominating. Casting soft plastics hard against the wall and allowing them to sink to the bottom was successful, with anglers only required to work lures ever so slowly. Freshwater captures increased with the onset of cooler conditions. Lake Bullen Merri had rainbows taken on Powerbait fished on running sinker rigs but the number of fish caught on soft plastics was a real surprise. Patterns imitating gudgeon seemed best. Wurdi Boluc Reservoir produced some outstanding captures, with some of the best bags of redfin I have ever seen taken in the past two weeks. Lures accounted for

most, particularly Pegron Minnows or Spinwells. Some nice trout were also landed, mainly browns pushing close to 3kg. Further afield, Ross Virt spent last Saturday at Lake Mulwala looking for cod on fly. His expertise in catching cod on fly and tying some of the best native flies around paid dividends. Ross also cast spinnerbaits and trolllanded a second cod but reports of many missed hook ups throughout the day suggested a drive north to chase our native species could be worthwhile. Apollo Bay continued producing awesome tuna, most over 100kg. Anyone seeking less punishment consider Portland where plenty of fish are in close generally willing to bite. Send reports and photos to info@raylongtackle.com.au or visit Brian at Ray Long’s Fishing World, 105 Shannon Avenue, Manifold Heights.

Locals ‘in leagues of their own’ ONLY one game of football is in town this weekend, with Geelong and Bendigo leagues playing a representative game at Skilled Stadium on Saturday afternoon. All three local leagues are playing interleague games as a part of a Victorian Country Football League Worksafe Country Football Championship. Twenty leagues from across the state are ranked in the championship according to their ability, with the winners of each game then going up a rank the following year. Geelong Football League is ranked number five in the state, while Bendigo is sixth. For a number of years Geelong was ranked either number one or two in the state but a loss last year and failing to play in the competition at all the year before has seen it plummet down the championship rankings. But Geelong is pulling out all stops to end the slide, appointing Glen Wallace as coach this year. Bendigo also used to be ranked highly but lost a bit of ground when it formed a stand-alone side to play in the Victorian Football League a few years ago. That side is now affiliated with Essendon and the league is regaining its strength. Geelong’s home-ground advantage and desire to head back up the rankings will help it win this one. An added incentive to get along and watch the game is that the VFL match featuring Bendigo Bombers and Geelong will be played from 11.15am.

BFL Bellarine Football League will be out to reverse its woeful record in interleague football when it travels to Donald to take on Sunraysia. It has been a number of years since the Sharks have won an interleague game and its ranking as 11th in the state might flatter the team. Travis Robertson has the coaching

Local Footy FRANK MASON job this year and has pulled out all stops to get the best players in the league interested in playing. Sunraysia League draws its clubs from Mildura, Wentworth, Robinvale and Merbein and has players coming from Adelaide and Melbourne, so pundits expect its interleague side will be very strong. This game is played on neutral turf, so home-ground knowledge and travel won’t be a factor but expect Sunraysia to win.

GDFL Geelong and District Football League’s interleague side makes the long trip to Malseed Park in Mount Gambier to take on Western Border. The Raiders only returned to interleague football last year and recorded a victory over Heathcote. This year the competition is a bit stronger but coach Adam Skrobalak is keen for his side to build a reputation as a major league and has a strong squad to choose from. Steven Richerts, Shaun Lewis, Brett Connors and Brent Grgic are class acts and will be leading lights in a side committed to represent the league. Western Border draws its clubs from Hamilton, Portland, Millicent, Casterton and Mount Gambier and is sure to be strong. An added incentive for the Raiders is the knowledge that if they win and Bellarine loses then the two leagues will most likely play each other next year. The Raiders will play a very physical game combined with a bit of polish and should be able to win.
