BY KIM WATERS WHILE most other 11-year-olds are bopping along to the likes of Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus, Wallington guitarist Georgia Rogers is playing soulful blues. Georgia recently earned a place in Geelong’s prestigious Sweethearts jazz band as one of the group’s youngest musicians. Band director Ross Lipson hailed Georgia as a “rising star” after she blew him away during auditions, which included a blues improvisation. “She’s an absolute gun,” he said. “I can’t believe how good she is.” Georgia, who described the praise as “pretty cool”, was “extremely excited” to have earned her place in the band. “The Sweethearts came to play at my school and I thought they were really great so I decided to audition.” Georgia will squeeze Sweethearts rehearsals into her busy practice schedule and other band commitments. “I’m in a band with some kids from school and we play all kinds of stuff,” she said. “I’m also practising for my grade three acoustic guitar exam, so that’s about half an hour to an hour of practice after school every night. “I’ve been playing for six years now and I just really love it.” Georgia was “really excited and a little bit nervous” about playing with her new band. “The Sweethearts went to Europe recently and that would be such an amazing thing to do, so I’m looking forward to touring with them.” Georgia plays acoustic guitar and has dabbled in electric and bass versions of the instrument. “But I never sing,” she laughed.

Ms Lindros said dog walkers had ignored beach signs instructing them to keep their pets on leashes. “They’ve had signs up in the area warning people to control their dogs and walk below the high tide mark but people haven’t obeyed that,” she said. “People should realise that there are alternative places to walk their dogs so we can protect these critically endangered birds.”

Libs ‘refused’ offer of stooge BY ANDREW MATHIESON THE LIBERALS are facing defeat in Corangamite after knocking back the offer of a stooge Nationals candidate, according to a former councillor. The former councillor said he offered three weeks before the election to stand as a National and direct preferences to Liberal Sarah Henderson but her party believed she could win without his help. The councillor, who did not want to be identified, raised the offer with Geelong’s Liberal House but party headquarters in Melbourne rebuked the idea. “They got back to me a couple of days later and said ‘Thanks, but no thanks – I think we’re just about right’,” he said. Incumbent Labor MP Darren Cheeseman had a 500-vote lead over Ms Henderson when the Independent went to press on Wednesday. The former councillor believed Nationals’ preferences could have guaranteed Ms Henderson a bid enough swing to win the federal seat. He had rejected a Shooters and Fishers Party approach to stand in Corangamite before his Nationals offer to the Liberals. “My feeling was the election was going to go down to the wire and Greens’ preferences would get Darren Cheeseman over the line,” he said. “I thought rather than standing for the Shooters and Fishers Party, which might have only got 50

MP win ‘85% chance’ BY KIM WATERS LABOR’S Darren Cheeseman is a “safe bet” to win the federal seat of Corangamite, according to a Deakin politics professor. Geoffrey Robinson said he was “at least 85 per cent sure” Mr Cheeseman would win the seat as he maintained a lead of several hundreds votes on the Liberals Sarah Henderson as counting of postal votes continued on Wednesday. “It’s fluctuating at the moment and Sarah Henderson is getting around 58 per cent of the postal votes but the other votes that come in (absentee, provisional and pre-poll) are unlikely to fall her way,” Prof Robinson said. Mr Cheeseman, who won Corangamite from the Liberals in 2007, had a 571-vote lead

over Ms Henderson when the Independent went to press on Wednesday. Australian Electoral Commission staff had counted 5491 postal votes. More than 13,000 postal, provisional, absentee and pre-poll votes remained uncounted. Mr Cheeseman had a 1200vote lead when counting of postal votes began at the start of the week. Prof Robinson said he expected a recount call, although the result would probably remain mostly unchanged. “People do find the strangest way to fill out ballot papers but there are strict guidelines now on how to interpret individual votes, so I don’t think a recount would change the outcome very much.”

votes and lumbered me as a shooter, which I’m not, it would be better to have Nationals representation in Corangamite to swing preferences. “They need to put up Nationals with Liberals in every seat because otherwise the big risk is the Greens get in as Labor stooges.” Nationals state director Luke O’Sullivan said the party would have considered the offer if Liberals had raised it with officials.

“In hindsight, it’s very easy to look back and see whether the Nationals would have stood a candidate in Corangamite; that if she’d fell a few hundred votes short it would have made the difference,” Mr O’Sullivan said. “Corangamite had never really been on the radar before for the Nationals in terms of targeting a candidate.” Liberal party headquarters had not returned the Independent’s calls for comment when the paper went to press.

Pot luck: Garry Nelis with another smashed wheel. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 52428

in brief Worker killed A WORKER has died after falling from a grain bunker at North Geelong. WorkSafe investigators rushed to the scene after the 40-year-old man fell about eight metres while trying to secure a cover on Tuesday afternoon.

Pub robbery POLICE are hunting two armed men who assaulted a worker and forced him to tie up two other employees while robbing Waurn Ponds Hotel. The worker received a minor head injury before the robbers stole his car to flee the hotel on Monday.

Kinder cash GEELONG’S council will seek government funding to expand kindergartens at Grovedale, Leopold and Ocean Grove amid “pressure” from surging demand, according to councillor Kylie Fisher. She said the kinders needed extra rooms to overcome a shortage of available places.

Register ripped A MAN armed with a “large knife” has robbed a Corio milk bar, according to police. They said a female shop attendant refused to hand over cash, so the robber ripped a register from the counter before fleeing.

Giant screen

BY ERIN PEARSON AN OUTBREAK of potholes across the region is damaging cars and threatening the lives of motorcyclists, according to mechanics. They say some motorists are forking out thousands of dollars to repair or replace expensive wheels as ongoing wet weather creates and deepens the holes. Safety Motors owner Garry Nelis said he had noticed a surge in potholerelated damage to customers’ vehicles. “This year’s the worst we’ve see in a while. “Potholes damage the suspension and wreck the tyre and rim of cars.

“Some wheels cost $700 dollars and then you have to pay for the tyre on top, so it’s a big issue for car owners. “Car owners could spend $2000 at least on fixing a Commodore with a low-profile tyre with a rim because of the price of parts.” Mr Nelis said his business had fixed about 15 cars with pothole damage in the past month and a half. Mobile mechanic Bill Waters blamed the wet winter for potholes “popping up” all around the region. He was particularly worried about motorcyclists trying to negotiate roads strewn with holes. “If a motorcyclist hit one at 60 km/h it would be disastrous.”

Mr Waters said he had seen potholes everywhere during his regular travelling around the region. “Because Geelong’s had dry weather before soaking rain, the water goes into cracks and pushes the asphalt out.” Motorists have also reported damage from repairs to potholes. Inverleigh’s Kamy Elliott, 18, said her car had suffered numerous chips from loose stones poured into potholes on the Hamilton Highway. “There were problems before but never as bad as this, she said. “The rain has had a massive impact and in turn made the situation worse. “My family and friends are having the

same problem. “It’s a few hundred dollars to get a windscreen replaced if you don’t have windscreen protection included in your car insurance.” AAMI’s Mike Sopinski said the insurance company dealt with claims for pothole damage. “Given then the fact heavier rain has been occurring over Geelong we are urging motorists to take extra care on the road and be aware that potholes may be in places they weren’t previously,” he said. A VicRoads spokesperson said the organisation had not recorded an increase in complaints following heavy rain in the past month.

Archaic supply: ‘no power to the people’ ANDREW MATHIESON AN archaic electricity line laid down for returning Second World War servicemen is causing persistent power blackouts for communities north of Geelong, according to a state MP. David Koch said residents in Lethbridge, Meredith and Bannockburn reported losing electricity 60 times for more than 200 hours in the past 12 months. The blackouts had also left hundreds of homes without running water. The Member for Western Victoria believed the single-wire electricity line

was never designed to service the region’s fast population growth. “There is no doubt the existing line is too small and too old and the maintenance required to keep it operational has been forgotten,” Mr Koch said. Residents had complained to Powercor but it had told them the problem was too expensive to fix, he said. Mr Koch told state parliament power shortages were a legacy of the Brumby Government’s lax infrastructure replacement. “Corners have been cut for far too long and it’s time Labor stood up and provided good government and strong

NO MAINTENANCE DECKING

Lethbridge’s David Sutherland said blackouts were determining whether families stayed or returned to the town. “In our case, it’s a very big inconvenience because we rely on power for everything,” Mr Sutherland said. “When the power goes out at our place there’s nothing we can do - we can’t even get a glass of water.” Mr Sutherland believed governments focussing on the supply of high-speed internet had their priorities wrong. “It astounds me the number of people talking about the national broadband network when at our place there’s no guaranteed power supply,” he said.

leadership to communities that have been left by the wayside,” he said. A spokesperson for Energy and Resources Minister Peter Batchelor said the Government expected the electricity provider that owned and maintained the networks to provide reliable supply. “That’s why we have put in place a strong regulatory framework with penalties if the supply of electricity deteriorates,” the spokesperson said. “In addition, under this framework businesses must make payments to consumers who experience severe or repeated outages.”

Corio school children set to sing a song of merger BY ERIN PEARSON CORIO children will join together in song next week as an introduction to the merger of their eight primary and secondary schools in 2011. The students will gather at Flinders Peak Hall on Thursday to simultaneously sing Come Play Your Part in a music program involving half a million school children around Australia. Corio Primary School performing arts teacher Amanda Baulch said the event would be an important stepping stone to the merger creating Northern College P-12. “We decided what a fantastic opportunity this could be for all our northern schools to get together before we will merge next year,” she said. “Across the eight schools we’re estimating close to 300 children will take part. “Music is such an important thing for all children to develop self-confidence, self-discipline and teamwork in a positive way,” Nikiesha Short, 12, was “very excited” to be one of 50 Corio Primary School students set to take part in the singing. “I can’t wait to just have a great time with my friends,” she said.

A Broadband for Seniors program has encouraged dozens of greyhaired novices to click on mouses rather than setting traps for the pests of the same name. One Care Geelong began classes this week in the latest expansion of the initiative teaching over 55s the basics of the internet. Program coordinator Anne Leach said the program had spread to several service clubs since Grovedale

Baptist Church started the classes last year. Most participants had found “a whole new world” online. “One woman well into her 60s went on the internet for the first time, typed in her grandfather’s name and up came a photo of him,” Ms Leach said. “He was a part of the Geelong’s history but, more importantly, she was absolutely blown away being able to find out about things like that about her own family.” Ms Leach said information on the program was available by phoning 5229 2133 or 0421 116 176.

BY KIM WATERS ORGANISERS are preparing contingency plans in case of flooding during UCI World Championship cycling in Geelong next month, according to a councillor. Bruce Harwood said organisers could divert riders to Mount Pleasant Road if flooding closed part of the course along the Barwon River. The course could even turn “back on itself” if Breakwater Road closed, he said. Residents have raised concerns about the impact of flooding on the race and traffic if this month’s heavy rain continues into September. The race through the central city area, Geelong West, Newtown, Highton and Belmont will close a series of roads as hundreds of thousands of visitors arrive for the event from September 28 to October 3. Cr Harwood said the organisers were “finalising” their contingency plans. “They’ve suggested that if the Barwon River floods Mount Pleasant Road will come further into play,” Cr Harwood said. “If there is extreme flooding and the Breakwater Bridge is affected they may have to look at turning the course back onto itself.” Cr Harwood said flooding during the event was “unlikely”. “These contingencies are being discussed by the committee and they will have more information in the future. While it’s unlikely, you do have to plan for these things.” Geelong Environment Council president Joan Lindros warned that last September was the city’s “biggest” month for rain in 2009. “With the flooding we’ve already had the ground is solidly wet and that will increase the likelihood it will happen again during heavy rain,” she said. “Organisers need to work out a fall-back plan and inform residents before the race because that (riverside) section of the track may be unusable.”

‘Pets hospital’ to slash costs BY ANDREW MATHIESON AN ANIMAL welfare group is raising money to build a Geelong pet hospital promising to cut the cost of veterinary services. People and Animal Welfare Society (PAWS) said its hospital would provide services including mobile vaccinations and microchipping, animal transportation and surgery. The not-for-profit organisation has bought a block for the $1 million hospital. PAWS has invited about 40 schools in the region and several Geelong businesses to participate in a casual dress day on

September 3 as a fundraiser for the campaign. Geelong PAWS board director and fundraiser Nadine Williams said the hospital would benefit pet owners struggling to pay everyday household bills and inevitable veterinary costs. “There are obviously problems for some people with financial difficulties and they can’t afford this basic care,” she said. “We might be able to help that a little bit and take pressure off some families. We want to be able to say there is a place you can go.” Mrs Williams said cheaper fees would prevent owners having pets

put down for illnesses that were sometimes as simple as untreated skin allergies. Some clinics failed to understand why pet owners let minor problems develop into life-threatening illness for their pets, she said “But we’re very sympathetic and aware of a lot of different circumstances in the real world.” Mrs Williams said the hospital would also benefit Geelong through provision of additional training in animal care. She asked anyone willing to make donation to phone PAWS on 5248 2091 or to email wildendeen@bigpond.com.

CLOSING SOON

BY ERIN PEARSON SURF Coast councillor Linsday Schroeter has retired after more than two decades fighting for Winchelsea residents, he has told the Independent. The 77-year-old said he had brought forward his retirement after initially planning to finish his civic service at the end of council’s term in 2011. Cr Schroeter said he had grown increasingly frustrated with a “lack of council support” for Winchelsea and Lorne. “I’m the only councillor who’s taken any interest or had anything to do with Winchelsea and Lorne,” he said. “Winchelsea has really been ignored and it’s very frustrating. “Everything the shire does is Torquay focused. Everything is hap-

pening down there and I’m sick of it.” Cr Schroeter hoped his predecessor would continue to fight for the rural parts of the shire. A Victorian Electoral spokesperson said the commission would announce Cr Schroeter’s replacement in the next few weeks. The commission would run a countback of preferences rather than hold a by-election because the shire did not have wards. “Voters won’t need to vote again as preferences for second, third, fourth, fifth etcetera will be reallocated according to the remaining candidates.” Unsuccessful 2008 candidates in order of the most primary votes were Michael Lewis, Garry Kerr, Ron

Humphrey, Rodney Foord and Elizabeth Wapshott. Cr Schroeter was a councillor on Winchelsea Shire for seven years before local government amalgamations in 1994. He then spent 15 years serving as a councillor on the new Surf Coast Shire. Cr Schroeter won headlines for voting to save kangaroos in Anglesea and Airey’s Inlet amid concerns about road safety, for backing a wind farm at Gnarwarre and for fighting to keep taxis at Winchelsea. He also controversially threatened to slash overgrown roundabouts at Winchelsea himself after residents had complained about traffic and fire threats.

BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG has a “really bad” culture of drinking and violence around nightclubs compared to popular precincts overseas, according to a researcher. But Deakin University’s Dr Peter Miller said his international findings ruled out extra police as a “silver bullet” to cleaning up central Geelong after dark. Dr Miller visited the USA, Asia and England to investigate how their authorities tackled drug, alcohol and violence in nightclub precincts. He will use his findings in a five-year study on issues surrounding Geelong’s nightlife. “Geelong’s drinking and violence culture is really bad,” Dr Miller said after returning from overseas. “Geelong is doing well in terms of a collaborative model and regulating nightclubs but still has very high levels of violence compared to other countries - the USA closes most bars at 2am and Canada has less violence culturally.” Dr Miller doubted extra police would solve problems of alcohol and violence around nightclubs in central Geelong. “We call for an increase in police all the time and there’s a really good argument for that but we need to be realistic about the expectations of increasing the number of police,” he said. “They can do a lot of good

Picture: Tommy Ritchie 52250 and would be great to see a lot more but we can’t expect the police to solve all the community’s problems.” Dr Miller said England recently employed 36,000 extra without “major impact”. “Liverpool has virtually everything Geelong’s got in terms of radio networks, accord-type bodies, CCTV and some ID scanners but the big difference is at the same time they did all this in 2006 the number of police almost doubled,” he said. “They’ve at least managed to

stop that trend but they haven’t seen a massive turn around the alcohol and violence problems have simply levelled off.” Dr Miller said his research suggested cracking down on sales of packaged liquor would be effective in combating violence around central Geelong.

Countries with fewer problems often had state-owned liquor outlets, he said. “This often means better prices because in the end the government gets to determine the retail price of the liquor but it means a lot more health intervention is available at point of sale. “It helps address the health costs and gather data on what percentage of liquor consumption comes out of packaged liquor sales. “Geelong still has a long way to go with these sorts of things but we’re seeing change.”

The Independent, Friday August 27, 2010.

Sweet sound of music Local Legends ANDREW MATHIESON OLD muso Ross Lipson walks back into his school office, spots crumbs strewn all over the carpet and picks up the leftovers from a meat pie. He laughs off the mess after having lunch with good mate Rick McLean who he credits as the mastermind behind lifting Ross’s school band, Sweethearts, from playing just for their parents to being a hit with international audiences instead. “Yes, he spilled the pie,” Ross says, grinning ear to ear, “but he can do whatever he likes.” The two have been inseparable since 1995 when Rick identified the right music genre for the Matthew Flinders Girls High School band. They gradually switched to a fusion of classic soul and Motown after moving away from what Ross describes as “daggy music”. “It was pretty cheesy but we thought it was pretty good,” he reflects. “I’d cringe if I was listening to it now.” The band went on a marketing push that soon had the band of teenagers, some aged just 13, recording their first album. The first-line up has since all grown up but the Sweethearts’ legacy is a further seven recordings. “We’d always have fun but we didn’t know where we were heading for the first few years,” Ross recounts. “Rick made me realise the potential of what we could do but he was also my biggest critic. I hold him responsible for heaps of changes to the band and without Rick it wouldn’t have happened.” Since its humble beginnings just over two decades ago when Ross and fellow teacher Clive Whistance would jam with students, Sweethearts has become a phenomenon. The Geelong schoolgirls now play around 50 gigs every year, including several jazz and soul festivals in Europe. “What we’re doing that differentiates us from other programs is that ours is all authentic learning in the real world,” Ross explains. “When they play a gig, it’s real – the band’s getting paid.” The band’s breakthrough came when Geelong gig organiser Jamie McKew invited Sweethearts to Port Fairy Folk Festival in 1996. They anticipated performing quietly on one of the back stages, not as support to Australian pop star Christine Anu in front of a packed crowd. “That was brave to put a year nine band on but Jamie backed us in,” Ross smiles. The Sweethearts concept has since morphed into a certificate music program also for other schools, while the Matthew Flinders outfit now has its own board of directors and eight other support staff. In fact, the band has become so big that 53-yearold Ross has left his science classroom to concentrate on the music. “As I always joke, I have the best job in show biz,” he chuckles. “I get to work with these amazing, motivated kids.” An Anglesea resident, Ross was formerly a professional airforce band oboist touring nationally and overseas. Before the airforce he played in the 1970s pub music scene during his days at Melbourne University. “You could always get a gig – it’s just an unreal scene,” he reminisces.

BOUQUETS to MG car club men who generously and happily came to Anam Cara hospice to brighten the day of patients. It was lots of fun and uplifting to us all when they shared their MG stories and took individuals for rides around town. Well Done Fellas, East Geelong BUCKETS to Tired And Grumpy (Buckets and Bouquets, August 20). The dog is not to blame for barking, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the lazy or ignorant owner who fails to property care for their pet. I suggest you put a note in the ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s letterbox advising them to do something about their dog. Barking Up The Wrong Tree, Newtown BOUQUETS to Club Italiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s members and employees whose school holiday program hosted children for bocce, mask decorating, cooking, music, dance and a meal.

Gracia, Grovedale BOUQUETS to Climatic Air Conditioningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rob and Andrew for exceptional customer service.

Grateful Bec, Paul and Lucy, Waurn Ponds

BUCKETS to a hotel for serving one burnt chicken schnitzel, another containing a hair and a fish platter with black spots. The hotel would only give us a voucher, hoping we would return. I would rather eat at McDonaldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s before going back. Unhappy Group Of People, East Geelong BUCKETS to the cruel person who stole our camera from a bedside in the maternity ward of St John of God Hospital.

letters Open and shut case I WRITE to object to the closure of Alexander Avenue, Point Lonsdale (Independent, July 16, 30). If service vehicles, fire fighters and residents in surrounding streets are to retain access and egress from the area, the road must remain open. It is very much a treed area, encompassing all the associated risks from the closure. The street layout of any urban area caters for through-traffic, cosy courts, links to other areas. When you choose to buy a house you buy into the circumstance of your choice. You don’t have the right to buy or build a house next to an airport and then demand that the airport be shifted. I use Alexander Avenue in my sometimes-tasks of delivering Probus or bowls club newsletters. Council must not close off streets to satisfy one or a few people to the detriment of 20 others. The thought of services like firefighters, ambulances, police and others being prevented from using the avenue in the case of an emergency appalls me. There are other ways of slowing traffic rather than going to the extreme of a road closure, which must not be done. AH Brown Point Lonsdale

REGARDING the proposed permanent road closure of Alexander Crescent, Point Lonsdale, speed humps are an alternative. This is yet another attempt to close another road in the Queenscliff area, posing increased risks in the case of bushfire while lengthening travel time, especially for elderly, less mobile citizens. Could speed humps be installed to slow speeding traffic, which poses dangers, especially to children and the less mobile? Speed humps would also be valuable in Nelson Road adjacent to the community health centre. BP Rymer Point Lonsdale

Roads to safety I HAVE read with interest the various comments and opinions on the Alexander Crescent closure, so I decided to throw my opinion into the mix.

WE WRITE in support of Yvonne Parker’s plan for the future of Portarlington’s rotunda (Independent, August 13). We are frequent op shop patrons and are very supportive of the work done by the volunteers at the two op shops in our town. However, our newly restored rotunda, soon to be the centre of a beautifully designed town square, should be presented as an important town icon, a meeting place of picturesque and historic significance. Perhaps a meeting of interested community members should be arranged to establish the use of the space. In our opinion, an op shop is not an option. The space lends itself toward a visitor information centre or a business related to the town’s tourism. We hope that our community groups may facilitate such a meeting in which ideas can be expressed and opinions heard. Maureen Allen and Juliet Gavens Portarlington

My understanding is that all the roads, streets, courts and crescents in Borough of Queenscliffe have been designed and made for vehicular traffic, with some carrying more traffic than others. So why has one crescent been closed because it’s become too busy and is a “danger to the children playing on the road”, as some wit suggested. If children wish to play outside it would be best they use backyards or the many parks in the area. It seems these children have their own private playground. Should we check all the streets, roads etcetera in the borough and close them for the safety of resident children? I was raised in Queenscliff in the ‘50s and ‘60s and even in those quiet days we were firmly discouraged from playing or riding our bikes anywhere near the traffic no matter how quiet the road. As the towns on the coast became more popular and the roads busier there were no road closures. As for a disaster in the event of a wildfire, well, we won’t mention that. JA Porter Queenscliff

I WAS interested in Gavin Brown’s letter, headlined ‘Electric willpower’, in last week’s Independent. As I work in what’s left of our manufacturing industry, I read with great excitement about Australia’s ability to become 100 per cent emissions-free in 10 years. Clearly unbeknown to anybody involved in industry anywhere on the planet, Gavin Brown and his cronies have developed a furnace able to run on lettuce leaves and celery sticks. I am interested to know how any sort of vehicle, electric or otherwise, could be produced without use of extensive industrial production methods heavily reliant on fossil fuels. Want windows, wheels, panel work, an interior, brakes, steering, an iPod-compatible stereo, heated seats, cruise control etcetera? Show me the manufacturing techniques required to produce any of these without using fossil fuels. And before any eco-nuts start reaching for their carbon-offset ticket books, I mean real methods that actually exist. Of course, if we fully imported these electric cars we wouldn’t have to feel guilty about making some smoke in our own country. Yes, that’s the answer - we’ll import them on a container ship! If we’re lucky the ship might be fitted with the latest fuel-efficient, common-rail diesel engine manufactured by Wartsilla in Finland. After all, this ship only uses 3.8 litres of heavy fuel oil per second at full load. Once on the dock we’ll load the cars onto our hybrid Kenworths and deliver them to local dealerships. Gavin Brown, please don’t insult our intelligence with your 100-per-cent-emissions-free-Australia rubbish. Glen Curtis Lara

Stab wounds IN THE days after the weekend’s federal election, Labor Member for Corio Richard Marles was asked on BayFM radio whether the poor result for Labor could partly be explained by the spectacular removal of former Prime Minister Kevin Rudd. Mr Marles felt that the election result would have been worse for Labor if Kevin Rudd had led the party during the campaign. Mr Marles’ reply showed that Labor still doesn’t get it. Regardless of their political persuasion, Australians detest back stabbers and turncoats. The political assassination of Mr Rudd was all

about the promotion of Julia Gillard by her factional henchmen who got wobbly after a few bad polls. Julia Gillard and Wayne Swan, who should have been Mr Rudd’s closest confidants, acted out of personal interest to depose their leader in a manner that went completely against the ethos of mateship and loyalty, for which Australians are world renowned. Whether Labor would have won with Mr Rudd we’ll never know but what we do know is that Australians won’t reward turncoats and back stabbers. Labor suffered because it was not seen as a credible government, nor was it clear about for what the party stood. The fact that federal Labor is consoling itself with the notion that the election result may have been worse with Mr Rudd as leader shows that Labor is completely out of touch with the Australian people.

THE CENTRAL concerns with fluoridation of water supplies is flouride’s toxicity and the fact that we who are ingesting it were not even asked. Fluoride is classed as a Schedule 7 poison, which means it should not be ingested yet authorities keep telling us, like some murderous nanny, that it is good for us. There is a mass of evidence attesting to fluoride’s deleterious effects, which are just simply ignored and have never made it into the equation. With 600,000 tonnes of fluoride pumped into Geelong’s atmosphere every year, cause for concern is deep. If the authorities will not rescind the fluoridation of our water then at least they should monitor the levels of a control group of volunteers to keep track of their flouride levels. Accumulation of fluoride leads to all kinds of well-documented deleterious outcomes If the State Government should choose to poison us, it is only fair that we, the recipients of this poison, should know how badly poisoned we are.

Wretched prison life BY ERIN PEARSON “PRISON is like hell”, according to play-write Angus Cerini. Six years after working in a juvenile justice facility “boy’s prison”, Cerini has brought his experiences to life in a new play to feature in Geelong this weekend. His Patrick White Playwrights’ Award winner, Wretch, tells the story of a mother visiting her son serving time for a crime of violence while exploring their “often tubulous” relationship. Cerini said his time working in the justice facility was “pretty striking”. “You go into a prison and it’s a very confronting sort of place but very quickly I realised these young blokes were much like the boys I went to school with in the outer suburbs of Melbourne. “A lot had just stuffed up. Many were destined for jail but for most of them things had gone wrong and they never thought that would happen to them.” Cerini said most of the young males he met in the detention centre suffered a “lack of male leadership”. “It always seemed to be a father figure lacking in these boys’ lives,” he said.

“On the other side were the mums and it was so simple to see how they stuck beside their kids and forgave them no matter what. “These guys in jail hate themselves but it’s the mums who love them and forgive. “That’s what struck me the most and that’s really where this play came from.” Cerini hoped the play would prompt regional audiences, particularly young men, to question their understanding of social justice and the influence of family and peers. “Without these sorts of things being examined I don’t think we have any chance of dealing with them, least of all within ourselves,” he said. “The experience I had in there was astonishing. It gave me a window into the lives of people that I had only ever seen reported in the newspapers.” Cerini takes on the character of the son alongside Melbourne theatre stalwart Susie Dee as the mother. Wretch will feature at Geelong Performing Arts Centre this Friday and Saturday as part of the centre’s 2010 Shaken & Stirred season.

Blues band set to take out the trash BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG blues band Trailer Trash made its debut on the most apt stage possible, according to lead singer Glenn Penny. The six members of Sleepy Hollow Blues Club climbed aboard a trailer used for dumping rubbish to parade through the main streets of Apollo Bay in the town’s music festival earlier this year. The logical choice of name given the debut “just stuck”, Penny said. “That’s how the band kicked off,” he laughed. “We were invited to play at the festival as representatives of Sleepy Hollow Blues Club. Six of us turned up and after one rehearsal we took to a trailer with a tarp over the top and rolled down the street. “We played our way into town from the camping ground near the pony club and played our way back out and received a wonderful reception.” With Penny on guitar and vocals, other members are pianist Garry Marshall, Ian Wilson on guitar and vocals, bassist Pete Anderson, drummer Lloyd Cotton and Colin Mac. “The whole thing about this band is that the songs are something everyone can tap their foot to,” Penny said. “Blues music is like pulling a song out of a hat and interpreting it in your own way. “That’s the beauty of blues.” Penny calculated the average age of the band at 45. “I’m a building surveyor and Garry’s a plumbing supplier but we all just love blues and it works.” Trailer Trash performs from 6pm on the fourth Sunday of every month at Sleepy Hollow Blues Club in Geelong Trades Hall.

Club on course to water security urlewis Golf Club will become the first regional golf course and the second in Victoria to implement innovative sewer mining technology to ensure the club’s long-term water security. Barwon Water will contribute $250,000 and provide technical support for the project to save up to 70 million litres of drinking water a year. The golf club will extract sewage from a nearby main and treat it in a purpose-built, on-site plant to produce high-quality, recycled water to irrigate the course. Barwon Water chairman Roger Lowrey said the project would benefit the club. “Not only will this project provide water security for the golf course, it will save valuable drinking water and increase recycled water use,” Mr Lowrey said. “We congratulate Curlewis Golf Club on its vision and drive toward a sustainable future.” Mr Lowrey said sewer mining was consistent with Barwon Water’s strategic goal to provide sustainable water and sewerage management. “This technology is one of a number of innovations that will provide new water solutions to meet future demand.” Mr Lowrey said the project would provide a blueprint for safe and sustainable alternative water supply options. “The concept is relatively new in Victoria. Currently there is only one other golf course sewer mining operation at Sunshine. “Barwon Water’s investment in this innovative project will provide knowledge and experience as we investigate other opportunities.” Curlewis Golf Club president Peter Penning said ongoing dry conditions and water restrictions had forced the club to look at alternative water sources. “A secure, self-sufficient water supply will ensure the course is always in prime condition, which will allow the club to grow and attract new members,” Mr Penning said. “The project has been positively received by members, with 98 per cent voting to accept and endorse the proposal put to them by the club’s committee of management.” Mr Penning said the club intended on having the project complete for this summer.

The water project will help maintain Curlewis Golf Club as one of the region’s premier courses.

Joeys focus on teaching skills he college understands the need to provide curriculum programs to effectively support and engage boys. Literacy is critical to the long-term success of boys in secondary education, impacting on all subject areas. St Joseph’s places a great emphasis on developing boys’ literacy skills through a range of opportunities and programs across all year levels. All faculty areas have been audited to identify to their specific literacy needs and strategies have been developed and adopted to support the development of literacy. The college literacy coordinator works closely with subject coordinators on subject-specific strategies, such as the development of a literacy handbook phased in at year seven. The booklet contains literacy scaffolds, graphic organisers and literacy tips for all subject areas. The booklet will eventually be available on line, allowing easy access at school and at home. Year seven students with additional literacy support are invited to attend a Literacy Breakfast Club that meets weekly before school over breakfast to work with two teachers on sharpening literacy skills. The College has also invited guest authors to the school to share their experiences and careers with the boys. The mathematics faculty also provides additional support through Lunchtime Maths Club. Students can seek advice and help with understanding maths concepts or assistance in completing homework. Groups of students are also given the opportunity to participate in a Tournament of the Minds public debating and speaking competition. Alternative programs are offered to students in years nine and 10. The Patch, a vegetable garden created and cultivated by year nine applied science students, has seen the vegetables of their labour shared with the class and the staff. Year 10 students have the opportunity to enrol in

Cycle in safety with Beretta’s T

greenhouse gas emissions, pollution and traffic congestion in suburbs. By reducing the number of trips made by cars, cyclists are making Australia’s already-congested roads less congested. The benefits of regular exercise, like cycling, is well proven. Regular cycling can reduce the

risk of disease. Cycling is low impact on the body, improves cardio-vascular fitness, provides improved muscle tone, bone mass and clearer skin and helps with personal weight management. Bicycle maintenance is critical to ensuring cyclists are always safe when out riding their bikes. Riders should make sure their bicycles are adjusted properly, the wheels are securely fastened and should always check brakes before riding. Paul and the team at Beretta’s Bike Hub can help customers with all their cycling needs. Anyone unsure of where to start when seeking a new bike or some repairs or who just wants to know more about riding safely can drop in to see the team at Beretta’s Bike Hub.

he bicycle is a legitimate form of sustainable transport and increasing in popularity. This means it is highly important that both cyclists and motorists are aware of each other on the road. Under the road rules, bicycles are considered to be vehicles and have a right to be on the roads but cyclists must also obey traffic signals and road signs. When motorists and cyclists obey traffic laws, cycling is a very safe form of transport and the health benefits greatly overshadow the risks. Research has shown that 55 per cent of all car trips are less than five kilometres in length. Cycling is an extremely efficient alternative, with nearly a third of private trips replaceable by bicycle. Cycling is also the preferred method of transport on an environmental basis.

Waneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wheels GREG WANE en Blackney reckons Hillmans were built like tanks But he claims â&#x20AC;&#x153;they wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take the cream of a rice puddingâ&#x20AC;? when referring to their power. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All my children had Hillmans as their first cars for this reason,â&#x20AC;? the 85-year-old Belmont resident said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The cars were slow, they werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t very quick.â&#x20AC;? About 10 years ago Ken and his third son, John, bought an old 1963 Sunbeam Alpine, a car based on the Hillman Minx and built by the Rootes Group in Britain. The car was bought from a farmer at Freshwater Creek on the Anglesea Road. It was all in one piece but needed a serious restoration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The car was all there basically but we had to strip it right down and put oil right through the system to keep the rust at bay,â&#x20AC;? Ken said. His youngest son, Craig, a qualified panel beater, was able to do the full ground-up restoration. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We sand blasted the whole car, took the dash out and redid the complete dash - it was a comprehensive restoration,â&#x20AC;? Ken said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Miraculously, the seats were trimmed and in good nick,

so we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to do anything with them but the rest of the car wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t much chop at all. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We put in new sill panels and patches and the right hand fender had been crunched at one stage, so thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; some new panel repairs. We had it painted in a two-pack paint job.â&#x20AC;? Ken said the car was as close as he could get to the original red colour was used by the Rootes Group in 1963. The car was unique in the sense that it was sold as a convertible - literally. A detachable hard-top roof is bolted to the body and Ken said that in summer he removed the roof, which was usually a two-person job and used the car as a soft-top. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a canvas top but it was really awkward to pull up, so I just put a tonneau cover, like the MGs, across the seat area.â&#x20AC;? The Sunbeam Alpine was launched in 1959 and styled by Kenneth Howes who based the design on the Hillman Minx, Hillman Husky and it used the short wheelbase of the Minx estate car. The 1963 Series III model was introduced with a 1600cc engine with an alloy head. About 5800 cars were built at the Rootes Ryton facility in England. Ken believed the car had been driven by its Modewarre owner for about two years. Prior to then it was thought to have been owned for some years by a Leopold resident. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it is the only one in the Geelong area and was probably bought new here,â&#x20AC;? Ken said.

The Sunbeam Alpine is typical of a 1960s-style sports car. Pictures: Tommy Ritchie

BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG Supercats have claimed South East Australia Basketball League’s south conference premiership with a 12-point victory against Hobart Chargers. The Supercats shot out of the Arena box on Saturday night with an early three-point shot from forward Nathan Herbert just 13 seconds into the grand final. Supercats Isma’il Muhammad, Braith Cox and J’Nathan Bullock helped extend the lead to 10 points, with the Geelong side heading into the first break with a handy lead 27-17. The Chargers remained firm and fought back in the third quarter to bring the margin from 25 to 11 points but were unable to suffocate the Supercats’ scoring opportunities in the final term. The Supercats finished the match on top 99–87. The win was the Supercats’ fifth SEABL conference championship since rejoining the league in 1997 and the team’s fourth in six years. Herbert won most valuable player for the match with 23 points. Muhammad had 16 points, nine rebounds and four assists, while Bullock finished on 16 and seven.

A challenging time over Pod BY ANDREW MATHIESON GEELONG would have fought a two-match ban on suspended forward James Podsiadly if the same penalty was handed down weeks earlier in the season, coach Mark Thompson has revealed. The club decided to avoid risking the Cats’ cult figure missing three games including two finals, which could have resulted in Podsiadly staying out of the side until a possible grand final. He was rubbed out on a charge for making forceful front-on contact with Carlton’s Bryce Gibbs. The Cats also accepted one week for defender Josh Hunt on a charge of rough conduct for a crude, slinging tackle. Thompson said the Cats’ thinking on challenges had changed as the finals approached. “I would have probably challenged Podsiadly’s and maybe Hunt’s,” he said. “It’s a bit of shame. That’s the way it is – we haven’t got a problem with any part of the process but it’s just where we are at the moment. “We would have probably contested the impact (of Podsiadly’s bump) if anything.”

Podsiadly may not play another game for four weeks if Geelong wins its first final against St Kilda next week and advances straight through to a preliminary final. Thompson said the suspension would have “huge consequences” on the 28-year-old AFL debutant who has kicked 45 goals in 17 games. “He’ll be pretty devastated, I’d say,” he said. Podsiadly’s actions have opened the door for maligned ruckman Mark Blake to play for the first time in weeks. Thompson said Blake’s inclusion could mean Geelong “at times” would play three talls – Cameron Mooney, Tom Hawkins and Brad Ottens – inside the forward 50-metre arc at Skilled Stadium tomorrow. Thompson ruled out resting players ahead of an easy clash against West Coast. Cameron Ling, Andrew Mackie, Tom Lonergan and Ottens would also return, he said. “We’ll probably play a very strong squad this week, as strong as we can possibly field,” Thompson said. Fremantle coach Mark Harvey

was criticised for resting several quality players last week in a farcical 116-point loss against Hawthorn. A bad run with injuries in previous weeks forced the Dockers to leave out seven of its leading stars last weekend. “We haven’t been taking those risks with our players,” Thompson said. “If you look back at our stats we’ve missed a lot of people through injury the last six weeks and a lot of those boys could have played.” But Max Rooke looks set to miss out on the Cats finals’ campaign. Thompson said the hardened utility would be forced to step up his preparation to simulate match conditions to even be considered. He said the Cats would have to “be in a bit of a state” to play Rooke again this year. “Obviously it’s going to be difficult for him. He knows that but, again, we just can’t give up on him because of his character,” Thompson said. “We’d love to have him in the team but it’s going to be hard.”

sport Lara final exit looms GEELONG Football League plays its first round of finals this weekend with two games at West Oval. The final five was settled last week, with the finishing order Bell Park, South Barwon, St Mary’s, Lara and Leopold. St Josephs missed out by percentage despite winning last Saturday. Surprisingly, Leopold enters the finals as a real premiership threat. The Lions only just scraped into the finals but their form over the past month has been spectacular, culminating in last week’s flogging of ladder leader and premiership favourite Bell Park. Reigning premier South Barwon also put the others on notice that it’s not a spent force by holding West Saints to only three straight goals while kicking 25 itself. Saturday’s qualifying final sees South Barwon take on St Mary’s. St Mary’s has fallen away in recent weeks with injuries taking their toll but the Saints hope to have close to a full list to pick from this week. These two sides have met twice this year with honours split but it will be South Barwon that holds sway in this one. Sunday’s elimination final between Leopold and Lara pits two finals newcomers. It’s been 11 years since the Lions have made the finals and five for Lara. Lara has hit a rough patch of late after a surge in July that saw it topple the three top sides in three consecutive games. Unfortunately for the Cats, this form has left them and Leopold will win.

BFL The second week of Bellarine Football League finals features two games at Portarlington. Saturday’s second semi-final between Drysdale and Amateurs is widely anticipated as a dress rehearsal for the grand final. Ammos were sensational last week when they smashed Queenscliff by 74 points. Cameron Williams in the ruck, Jason Tom up forward and Trevor Edwards on the back flank were pivotal to the win and will again be expected to provide leadership. Drysdale had last week off and will come into the game with fresh legs eager to play.

Local Footy FRANK MASON The Hawks will be wary but will have too much all-round talent. Sunday’s first semi-final between Queenscliff and Anglesea promises to be a close affair. The loser bows out of the finals, ensuring both sides will put their best efforts on display. Queenscliff will be shattered by last week’s loss but can take some heart from its performance in the third quarter when it displayed the skill and teamwork required to win a final. Anglesea surprised many by beating Torquay in last week’s elimination final and may have just discovered some self-belief. The Roos will need all of it on Sunday because Queenscliff will be out for respect, which it should be able to earn.

GDFL Werribee Centrals and Bell Post Hill meet at St Albans Reserve on Saturday in the second semi-final. The winner will advance straight to the grand final and go in on equal terms. Werribee finished on top of the ladder after an excellent start to the year, while the Panthers started slowly but have really turned it on in the second half of the season. Injuries have stalled Werribee’s charge and its doubtful many of its gun players will play a part in the finals campaign. The Panthers can see the club’s first ever seniors premiership on the horizon and won’t stop now, so expect them to win. Sunday’s cut-throat first semi-final has East Geelong and Bannockburn locking horns. Bannockburn has been solid all year and will go in confident. East Geelong looks far better with Ryan Closter back in the side and will be buoyant after midfielder Ryan Coy’s league best-and-fairest victory. This will be a dire battle but expect Bannockburn to advance to next week’s preliminary final.

Art of darkness: Owen Lundy displays his 2.2kg snapper from St Helens and Adam Van der Lugt with a gummy shark from Swan Bay’s jetty.

Anglers weather conditions to land trout COLD WET and windy weather left only the hardy or foolhardy on the water in the past week but quality fish we still landed despite the trying conditions. Lakes where anglers found protection from the wind provided the standout captures. Lake Bullen Merri received the most pressure, with dozens of shore-based anglers catching predominately rainbow trout from very small up to around 1kg. Powerbait was effective fished on a running rig, with mornings producing the best fishing and the action slowing as the days progressed. Last weekend Ken Alford and my dad, Ray, landed 25 five fish on Powerbait from the shore, with all but one fish returned to the water. Paul Tamis and Rick Maes fished the lake with bait from the shore all night for just a couple of small rainbows but in the morning they trolled in a boat, catching more small rainbows and two quality browns of 2.3kg and 2.5kg. The boys’ best lure was a Tassie Devil in colour number 51, with the fish taken both down-rigging at six metres and flatlining on the surface. Jacob Holt fished Lake Purrumbete where in blustery conditions he found that trolling was his best choice. With a Tassie Devil on one line and a Mirra Shad on the other, he caught and released four fish around 900g and one standout brown close to 3kg. Wurdee Boluc Reservoir rose dramatically with a large amount of water, which discoloured the water. Fish were still available from the line separating the clean and dirty water, with Danny Jones catching a brown of 2kg and a rainbow of 980g

On the bite BRIAN LONG on a Pegron minnow. In saltwater, most reports for the week were about squid, with some fantastic results. Anglers have been finding that the quality jigs now available are superb, particularly renowned brands such as Dartmax, Harimitsu, Clicks and Yamashita. David Matuch has been harassing the squid on the inshore grass beds off Clifton Springs where he has consistently had success, like many other anglers. Squid can generally be found in numbers at present all the way from Hermsley to Queenscliff. Although most captures have been from the south shore, plenty have also being taken on the opposite side of the bay from Kirks Point to Altona. Surf anglers again found conditions challenging in the past week as big swells pounded the shore, stirring up the sand and making salmon fishing tough. Fairhaven was the best destination when the water cleared, with lures giving the best results. We have found that bait has been less productive, although Surf Snatchers and poppers have been effective. Silver trevally are still being taken in Queenscliff’s cut an hour either side of high or low tide with soft plastics, with curl-tail grubs and Turtleback worms best.

Few anglers fished Swan Bay in the past week but hardy soul fishing after dark caught gummy shark pushing 6kg. Fresh bait and high tides are essential. John Carmichael fished just off Duck Island for a mixed bag of squid, flathead, whiting, salmon and trevally, with the finned fish taking pippies and bluebait. Snapper were disappointing but persistence paid off for Owen Lundy when he fishing land-based at St Helens. Without a bite for over four hours, Owen had just decided to go home when his rod folded under the weight of his best snapper yet, a fish of around 2.2kg. Steve Sloan fished off the stick marking the end of the former Yarra Street pier where he nailed a couple of nice snapper around 2kg on pilchard. Steve had a number of runs from other fish but failed to hook up, perhaps due to the size of fish currently encountered in the bay. Andrew McKenzie reported good numbers of salmon working baitfish off Williamstown and Altona. Soft plastics anglers had a quiet time on Geelong’s waterfront, although Greg Stevens managed a butterfish of 2.4kg on an Atomic grub. Estuary reports were inconsistent, with bream taken from Spring Creek and Anglesea River. Lures have been outfishing bait, with a mix of soft plastics and hard-bodies working. Bream fishing will improve in coming weeks due to the flush of freshwater hitting most of our streams.
