poverty. Corio ward councillor Kylie Fisher urged State Government to urgently review the rent rises. “It’s disappointing because families are struggling and that needs to be taken into consideration,” she said. “It really impacts on low-
income earners and their families.” A department spokesman said rents were pegged at 25 per cent of household income. “If the household income goes up then the rent goes up. If the household income goes down the rent goes down.” The spokesperson said the

department ran biannual reviews. “Most tenants, about 90 per cent of them, are on rebated rents. Rises are often linked to increases in Centrelink payments. “If tenants have concerns we’re more than happy to discuss it with them. They can simply contact their local office of housing.”
BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN LIBERAL MP Andrew Katos has used a seven-year-old speech to split Labor counterparts over plans for a directly elected mayor of Geelong. Mr Katos said Member for Lara John Eren supported a directly elected mayor but Geelong’s Ian Trezise opposed the proposal. Mr Katos cited a 2004 parliamentary speech in which Mr Eren called for an investigation into a directly elected mayor of Geelong. “For seven years the Labor party’s representative in Lara has supported a directly elected mayor for Geelong and it’s about time the Member for Geelong gets up to speed as well.” Mr Eren confirmed he supported a directly elected mayor. “This is an important issue for Geelong, not to be taken lightly and requiring wide consultation. It’s the government that has the mandate on this because it went to the election committed to this policy.” Mr Trezise accused Mr Katos of “putting up a smokescreen”. “My position has always been that I do not support a directly elected mayor,” Mr Trezise said. “It would cost $250,000 minimum to run a campaign and that would eliminate the vast majority of people from running. It would become the bastion of the rich and famous or political parties and as a former councillor I think that’s wrong.”

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN SUCCESSIVE rent hikes totalling $70 have floored public housing tenants in Geelong’s northern suburbs, they have told the Independent. They said Department of Human Services had hit them with two $35 increases a year apart. Norlane’s Mick, who wanted his surname withheld, said the $70 hike was a blow to him and other public housing tenants. “It’s hitting people hard because we’re already having difficulty making ends meet.” “They’re finding it really tough because food costs, utilities, everyday living is going up.” Mick said the department raised rents $35 in June last year and had just sent a letter advising of a second $35 rise. “We’re paying a lot of money $194 – for a house in poor condition. The house is over 70 years old and its falling down,” Mick said. “They justify the rent by saying they charge market rent but if you had a look at this house you wouldn’t get the money they charge if it was a private rental. “Our pensions haven’t gone up and the rent is more than 25 per cent of our income.” Mick receives a disability pension. Wife Kaye is on a carer’s pension. Two of the couple’s five children live at home with them in their three-bedroom weatherboard house. Mick, a former housing support worker, was considering fighting the latest rise at Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal. “The problem is that I know what you’ve got to go through,” he said.

BY ERIN PEARSON POLICE are calling on unknown victims of convicted Geelong paedophile Robert Charles Best to come forward after he pleaded guilty to a string of fresh charges this week. Best, 70, whose 20-year criminal history includes sex assaults on St Joseph’s College schoolboys, had his court cases suppressed until earlier this week. The former teacher has 21 previous convictions across four trials for sex crimes between 1969 and 1988. He pleaded guilty this week to six sex abuserelated charges against three more boys aged 11 to 12 during his time at St Joseph’s. Geelong Police Detective Sergeant Kevin Carson, who has overseen investigations into Best’s sex crimes since 2002, said he had “no doubt� more victims had yet to come forward. “We know there are many, many more victims out there and we urge them to contact us,� Det Sgt Carson said. “If anyone needs to talk to police all they have to do is call.� Det Sgt Carson said Best’s victims were struggling to understand why the Catholic Church financially defended the Christian Brother through six trials. “They’re coping all right with the court cases but not the fact that so much money was put behind Best’s defence over the years. “But nothing is easy with Robert Charles Best.� Best taught at Newtown’s St Joseph’s between 1985 and 1989. He was jailed in 1998 for two years for indecently assaulting two Victorian schoolboys. Earlier police charged him in 1996 with eight counts of indecent assault on five boys aged 11 to 12 while working at Ballarat’s St Alipius parish primary school. Best was this week remanded in custody to appear for a pre-sentence hearing on July 25.

Drug, burglary ring ‘busted’, court hears
in brief
BY KIM WATERS POLICE have busted a “very wellorganised” drug and burglary ring in Geelong, a court heard this week. Jason Davison, Ryan Stalker and Timothy Innes fronted Geelong Magistrates Court on Wednesday over an alleged series of “large-scale” burglaries that netted the group more than $200,000 in stolen goods. Mr Davison, 34 of Burdoo Drive, Grovedale, also appeared on charges of drug trafficking and possessing an unregistered firearm. Police Senior Constable James
RACING authorities will draw up a plan to guide the future of Geelong Racecourse, according to Victoria’s minister for the sport. Racing Minister Denis Napthine said the Baillieu Government would contribute half the funding for the $62,000 plan, which could usher in new facilities for training, horse stalls, crowds and parking.
Constance told the court officers executed numerous warrants during a series of overnight raids on May 24 as part of an “extensive investigation” into a Geelong drug trafficking operation. Snr Const Constance said police intercepted about 3000 phone calls between the three men and a Craig Doherty, 39, of Francis Street, Belmont, regarding the handling of stolen goods and trafficking meth-amphetamines. Police executed another search warrant at Mr Davison’s Grovedale home on May 25, seizing 65 grams of amphetamines in a cream-coloured bal-
loon, black Oakley sunglasses, an Apple Mac computer, an un-registered starter’s pistol and three mobile phones. Snr Const Constance said police believed the group was responsible for a series of large-scale burglaries on commercial premises in the region. He alleged Davison was also involved in “transportation” of drugs from Melbourne to Geelong for sale. All the Geelong police division was working on the continuing investigation, Snr Const Constance said. Magistrate Stephen Myall refused Davison bail.
Mr Myall scheduled Stalker and Innes for bail application hearings on Thursday. Mr Davison and Mr Doherty will face court again on June 22. The four men first appeared in Geelong Magistrates Court last week after police raids on their homes uncovered stolen property including tools, cars and two Ducati motorcycles. Mr Davison’s lawyer, Ms WellsSimon, said her client had told her the 65g balloon of amphetamines was a “stress ball manufactured in a Salvation Army group therapy session”.
John and Bob in a Heartbeat JOHN and Bob are keeping tabs on the vital signs of some of Geelong Hospital’s sickest patients. The two portable Dash 5000 monitors carry the names of two important volunteers as they roll around the hospital’s cardiac care unit checking heart rhythms, blood pressures and oxygen levels. Heartbeat Geelong, a charity organisation of former cardiac patients, donated the monitors in memory of past-president John Ellis and former golf day organiser Bob Loader. Barwon Health cardiology director Professor Sandy Black welcomed the donation. “The portable monitors are already in use and give us the flexibility to provide a higher level of monitoring to the sicker patients by taking the equipment to the patient. “This adds greatly to the safety as well as the convenience of patients. We are very appreciate of the hard work done by Heartbeat in support of the unit.”
Air blood WORLD-FIRST airborne blood supplies helped save the life of a Moolap man after a crash near Mount Duneed on Tuesday, according to Ambulance Victoria. A spokesperson said helicopter paramedics gave the 61-year-old a transfusion on the way to hospital in Melbourne just a month after Air Ambulance Victoria initiated a program to carry blood on flights.

Cancer rates BOWEL cancer rates are higher in Golden Plains Shire than almost anywhere else in Victoria, according to new figures. Bowel Cancer Atlas of Victoria reported a rate of 43 deaths per 100,000 head of population in the shire, second to West Wimmera and almost four times higher than the lowest rates in the state.
Carer shortage NURSING home residents face a “substantial shortage” of volunteers to spend time with them, according to Barwon Health. A spokesperson said Red Cross was calling for volunteers to join a Community Visitors Scheme, which provided “one-on-one” time with aged care residents.
Meter feedback THE PUBLIC can have its say on a controversial program installing “smart meters” to measure Victorian homes’ electricity consumption, according to Member for Western Victoria Region Simon Ramsay. He said the Baillieu Government wanted consumers to email feedback on the meters to amireview@dtf.vic.gov.au.

Shire’s footpaths affair to remember on TV
Mooney, who lives at Point Cook, immediately lost his licence for six months and copped a fine of more than $400 but chose to take the matter to court. He did not appear in Geelong Magistrate’s court on Wednesday but his lawyer said he would plead guilty.
CATS STAR Cameron Mooney will plead guilty to a speeding charge that cost him his licence, a court heard this week. The dual premiership veteran was allegedly caught driving at more than 35km/h over the speed limit in an 80km/h area on Mount Dunned Road in January.

BY ERIN PEARSON JAN JUC residents have taken their fight against a special charge scheme for footpaths to national television. Channel 9’s A Current Affair contacted them after reading that Surf Coast Shire would take Supreme Court action to overturn a state planning tribunal ruling against the scheme. Residents fear the shire will push ahead with the footpaths charges if it wins. Councillors voted for court action last to prevent a “legal precedent” allowing ratepayers to beat special charge schemes. Lead objector Steve Burton said Tuesday night’s television story would not be the last council hears from the residents. “We’re still looking at (our) options…and not ruling anything out. This is by no means done and dusted.” Jan Juc’s Holly McIntosh urged council to “move on”. “We’re all appalled with the shire’s inability to listen to the community. We’ve voiced that we do not want ugly cement footpaths and to expect us to pay for something none of us want is ridiculous.” Shire chief executive officer Mark

Alcoa river ‘link’ research including taking 150 water samples and analysing 46 elements and acidity. “I’ve caught Alcoa’s Anglesea power station in a case of monstrous dumping of processed water high in boron,” Mr Parsons said. “Alcoa was discharging wetted, dissolved fly ash containing boron at 10 times higher than normal - in effect the fish suffocated by ingesting the resultant flock.” Mr Parsons said he took samples at Salt and Marshy creeks,
at Alcoa’s power station outlet and downstream in the river. “The samples clearly indicated the toxic substances being poured down the Anglesea River – 90 per cent of the water comes from the Alcoa plant except in significant rain events,” Mr Parsons said. Mr Parsons said Alcoa’s Environment Protection Authority licence for the power station had “TBA” listed for its boron limit. Alcoa’s Brenda Foran defended the company’s opera-
tions at Anglesea. “The company remains confident of its continuing safe operations for the environment and the community and looks forward to the findings of the independent review.” Mr Foran said Alcoa strongly refuted Mr Parson’s allegations. “We haven’t seen any evidence as yet so we have nothing to respond to. Alcoa will respond once we have the evidence. “We hope his methodologies, testing and qualifications are investigated as well.”

BY ERIN PEARSON GEOFF Chandler’s backpack will be lighter than others next month when he tackles Papua New Guinea’s gruelling Kokoda Trail. The 50-year-old, who has a prosthetic leg, believes his amputation will provide him with a weight benefit over his fellow trekkers on the 96kilometre journey. “It’s going to be a huge advantage for me,” he laughed. “I’ll only have one sore foot at the end of the trek and will only need half the pairs of socks.” A motorbike accident left the jovial Geelong West father with an agonising leg injury that left him in constant pain for 26 years. But in 2010 Mr Chandler decided quality of life was more important than keeping his injured leg, so he went under the knife to have it removed. He will take on his epic Kokoda trek 12 months after the amputation. “For 26 years I was in pain every single day. My leg was deformed and susceptible to breaking,” Mr Chandler said. “I’d spent six months prior to the surgery in plaster. Now I’m going over (to Papua New Guinea) full of confidence.” Already six kilograms lighter, he will join nine other Geelong residents on the trek across the historic World War II trail from July 5. Mr Chandler said his family was reluctant about his trip but he eventually managed to win them over. “My sister and my kids were a bit hesitant and didn’t really want me to go but they support me now, particularly mum who thinks it’s a great way to pay respect to my dad who walked the Kokoda Trail during World War II. “He was one of the lucky ones to come back.” Personal trainer Matt Jolley said Mr Chandler’s dedication left him “blown away”. Pre-trek preparation included two saunas a day to help acclimatise and 4.30am workouts. “If people aren’t inspired by what Geoff is doing I don’t think they’ll be inspired by anything,” Mr Jolley said.

Sex talk ‘raises proceeds’ for prostate support group

SEX TALK has provided a financial windfall for a Geelong group supporting sufferers of a cancer afflicting men. Geelong Prostate Support Group reaped $1500 from An Evening with Bettina Arndt – Men’s Health and Sexuality at Geelong’s Village Cinemas last month. Ms Arndt, one of Australia’s highest-profile sex therapists, spoke at the evening about various sexual health issues confronting men, including the affects of prostate cancer treatment. Community service organisation Zonta Club of Geelong ran the evening, with the Independent providing free promotion as a sponsorship. Independent managing editor Tony Galpin said the proceeds went to a deserving local group. “Geelong Prostate Support Group provides an invaluable community service to the many families touched by prostate cancer,” he said. “The money will help the group continue providing emotional support to victims and follow up to help them negotiate the recovery process. I congratulate Zonta for its wonderful initiative on behalf of Geelong Prostate Support Group.”

Pokie debate ‘scares workers’ pokies in Geelong’s 25 venues in 2009/2010. Mr Burnett said Geelong had ample help for problem gamblers. “Being local, it’s easier to get on to a counsellor and get someone help when required,” he said. “All venues have posters with the contact phone numbers up, staff are trained to spot people with potential issues and the self-exclusion program is going well.” Mr Burnett rejected Mr Wilkie’s push for a mandatory pre-commitment system to limit how much gamblers spent on each pokies session. “That’s not the way to go,” Mr Burnett said.

He believed access to on-line gambling the close association between sport and gambling were “serious issues” for young age groups. “There is a need for more local research on impact of these developments,” Mr Boyd said.

The City has conducted a successful trial from that has restricted traffic to one-way traffic only in Clifford Parade. This means that traffic has only been allowed to flow westbound from Hitchcock Avenue towards Grove Road. These chanegs will now be permanent.

Orienteering steps out in city FOR THE cartographically-challenged, there may yet be hope. The sport of orienteering usually elicits visions of maps with complicated contour lines, compasses, hiking boots and rough terrain. But the Geelong series of park and street orienteering events is, well, a walk in the park comparatively and literally. Park and street orienteering is ideal for the average walker seeking a little exercise – mental and physical. Geelong coordinator John Gavens explained that anyone who could walk to their nearest shop was fit enough to participate. “You don’t need a compass or any special mapreading ability. Just wear running gear or lightweight clothing and shoes and you’re ready to go,” John said. “The beauty of these events is they cater for everyone.
Join the club JOHN VAN KLAVEREN “Some competitors are elite athletes using it as variation in their training. Others are walking the dog, walking with friends or getting around with the family, including babies in prams.” Geelong Street O runs a series of events each season. Next up is a six-event winter series starting on July 7 and another 10-event series with legs at Lara and Torquay.

Telstra ‘workshops’ technology with seniors Telstra is giving local community groups in the Central Victoria and Sunraysia region the opportunity to teach seniors the benefits of modern-day communication technology such as mobile phones and computers through the Telstra Connected Seniors program of grants and training. No-one is ever too old to learn about technology and seniors are always surprised at just how much they can easily do online, like banking, shopping, finding out about new interests and joining social groups. We understand the feelings of apprehension around learning how to use new technology. Thankfully, mobile phones and computers can be simple to use and best still, they open up a whole new world of communication.
The workshops are conducted by experts and peers in a friendly and comfortable environment where seniors learn specifically tailored skills at their own pace. Telstra offers grants of up to $5,000 for local community organisations and up to $50,000 for state and territory organisations to run these workshops. In addition, the program runs events throughout the country and offers web-based tutorials on technology basics.

Hi, my name is Duane Dalton and I am the new Telstra Country Wide Area General Manager for Geelong and the Surf Coast. I am very excited to be working with the local community to deliver the best possible service to our customers. Telstra Country Wide has been an integral part of the local community for the past 10 years, and the recent decision by Telstra to broaden the role and responsibilities of the TCW team means we have never been more hands on! Over the next 12 months my focus will be on engaging with the local community to encourage our customers to come into our stores and learn about our wide range of products and services. We will also be investing $822,000 into Geelong and the Surf Coast region to provide customers with even better mobile coverage and faster data speeds. Our Telstra Country Wide team is dedicated to the people of Geelong and the Surf Coast. Our staff live locally and have an understanding of the region’s unique needs. This local knowledge means that we can provide the right telecommunications solutions for each business and individual customer. I look forward to meeting and speaking with people in our community in the coming weeks and hearing about what is important to them so that we can continue to improve upon the quality of our customer service. Our local Telstra Stores are the place to find great Telstra products such as the Telstra T Box®, T Hub® and T-Touch Tab™. Customers can speak with specially trained staff by visiting one of their local Telstra Stores.
John said the recent summer series achieved record participation. “We’re always trialling new courses with different maps and we attracted 65 participants on average per event.” Street orienteering events usually features three courses for runners, ranging from three to 10 kilometres, plus a walking course. Most events use a “scatter” format in which participants search for a designated number of controls in any order in the fastest time. The controls can have differing points value, with the aim to obtain as many points as possible in a set time. Points are deducted for late returns. Events start at 7pm, with registration and a briefing 30 minutes prior. Entry fees are a nominal $4 for adults and $2 for juniors. John said street orienteering often enabled participants to discover parts of the city and region they had never seen before. “We’ve discovered the bayside beauty of Rippleside, the intricate web of streets and cutthroughs at St Albans and the coastal beauty of the Jan Juc cliffs. One summer event was held almost entirely within Eastern Park.” For the more adventurous, the sport also offers mountain bike orienteering and rogaining, both on a state-wide basis. John said more information was available at vicorienteering.asn.au/parkstreet/geelong or by emailing lesgav@gmail.com or phoning 0427 840 816.

letters Ford jobs ‘in transition’ I WRITE in response to John van Klaveren’s story headlined ‘Canteen jobs ‘doubt’ as Abbott tours’ in the May 20 Independent. Concerns over job loss are understandable in making a transition through a mechanism that is new to our economy. But let us remember why it is essential we make the transition to a low-pollution economy. Climate Change is real and requires urgent action, to which every reputable science organisation and the Liberal, Labor and Greens parties attest. In making any significant transition government must use a series of complementary policies alongside the tax or scheme to ensure an effective and just transition. So although it can be difficult to understand what is really happening through the many mixed messages we are given, we, as a community, are more intelligent than to listen to the scare mongering of Tony Abbott and Sophie Mirabella. We, as a community, need to unite and look at the opportunities that this transition presents and the significant positive outcomes from strong price-onpollution legislation.
If we delayed action on climate change by implementing the Liberals’ direct action policy we, as the highest polluting country per capita in the world, would contribute to passing tipping points to catastrophic climate change. If we fail to transition our pollution-intensive economy now we will be left behind as the world transitions to clean, renewable technologies. Just think what would then happen to jobs and the cost of living. Zac Power Geelong West

Mad believers
GAVIN Brown’s letter in last week’s Independent showed he is an ostrich. Once he has a feel for an argument that he accepts he buries his head in the sand and will not look around to see what is actually happening around his body. Our weather in Geelong is fine and the rains are great but did he offer any reason why we are having fine rain, or drizzle, in many areas of the flat land between the Dandenongs and our coastline? This is a result of cumulus clouds being held to a
HOW CAN the climate change debate be over when it never began in terms of facts versus theory and outright fiction? I have zero confidence in published reports and expressed views of scientists and others who rely on and reap funding from governments pushing the global warming scam as a vote winner. The recent Climate Commission report was a classic example; a commission comprised exclusively of government-selected members, wholly funded by government with a clear and sole charter
to deliver findings supportive of the government’s proposed carbon dioxide tax. Independent scientists are divided on the suggestion of man-made warming. All scientists agree there is no evidence man has the capacity to influence climate. When tame warmist scientists refer to “evidence” they really mean flawed modelling based on a highly questionable theory. If there were real, peer-proven, empirical evidence they would rush to wheel it out. In the absence of evidence, those who fail to question choose to believe because they need a cause to champion, such as saving the planet, or are simply innocent youth or gullible adults. I have no issue with those in this category. There are many others, however, who knowingly pedal warmist alarm for personal profit or political gain, which is both shameful and inexcusable. It is a blight on our nation that such individuals and politicians can seemingly escape any meaningful challenge for evidence-based scrutiny. Stop this madness now. Gary Matchan Mount Doran

letters Insane monster AT THE end of this century when our great grandfathers discuss the significant things of the past 100 years they will be dumbfounded how a small group of elites could hoodwink the entire civilised world into spending trillions of dollars on a problem that didn’t need fixing. The great global warming swindle has become a self-perpetuating industry and, despite clear scientific evidence to the contrary, its supporters have too much at stake to admit they have got it wrong. Politicians have their egos to protect, the captains of industry likewise and they don’t really care because they will make massive profits whichever way the cards fall. Climate scientists and their lackeys have created a monster that has become uncontrollable. This monster has created in turn the greatest mass hysteria in recorded memory. Environmentalist doctrine now shapes to an unprecedented degree the rights and duties that govern commerce and political life. Once in place, the green censorship of ideas, court jurisdiction over the means of production and all the other travesties of rationality are likely to stay in place long after they will have clearly been seen to have failed to achieve
the unachievable. A carbon tax is effectively a tax on progress, a penalty for being alive and breathing in and exhaling CO2. It is totally insane, stupid and regressive tax. Alan Barron Grovedale
One eye on denial SURELY it’s bad enough having serial climate change denialist Alan Barron harangue we good citizens every second week with his flat-Earth views but now it appears he’s the one-eyed Cat as well (Letters, May 27)! Please, Mr Barron, when airing your prejudices at least get the facts right. The free kick you alluded to wasn’t against Cameron Ling and certainly wasn’t in the 2010 preliminary final in which your team was comprehensively thrashed by Collingwood. Mr Barron bemoaned a “petty ruck infringement”. I notice the recipient missed last weekend with concussion! Very, very petty. Although Mr Barron seems very concerned about umpiring decisions affecting match outcomes, I found it strange he didn’t mention the late-game decision in the previous Friday night match. The consensus across the football community was
that the umpires got it horribly wrong disallowing Scott Pendlebury’s arguably match-winning goal that would have sunk the Cats. Actually, I’m glad the result went Mr Barron’s way as Geelong without doubt was the better team on the night and deserved to win. I am a Magpie tragic of 60 years standing, incredibly passionate and occasionally biased but I like to think I see the big picture, recognising the skills and talents of the opposition as well. Bring on the round 24 rematch. Rob Wallis Point Lonsdale
‘Refugees’ top oldies I RECENTLY read a news story about 24 Parade College students locking themselves in a makeshift detention centre at their school to raise awareness of the plight of asylum seekers in mandatory detention. Twenty year 10 and 12 students spent 24 hours in a cage sleeping on concrete in cramped quarters behind a wire fence eating only basic food and went without phones and iPods. The teacher’s idea was to show students what it would be like to be in detention and to change the students’ perception and to promote understanding at the school.
The only perception that needed changing was that of the teacher because she obviously couldn’t distinguish between Australian detention and some Asian jungle refugee centres. This type of symbolism is hurting the minds of our young people who would be better served in seeing how the real world lives by spending some quality time with our elderly people who have contributed their entire lives to Australia without a murmur. Why not a bit of community spirit and help the elderly with a bit of weeding or errand-running instead of this ideological, politically motivated indoctrination of young minds, which costs us dearly. Why don’t these teachers show their students the real state of care for the elderly and the condition to which our hospitals have degenerated? Nah, not PC enough. Russell Williams Newtown

Fiddler on waterfront BY HAMISH BROOKS GEELONG Lyric Theatre Society will bring musical theatre back to Geelong’s Costa Hall with a performance of the timeless classic Fiddler on the Roof. Davina Smith Crowley will direct a cast of 75 on a stage bereft of musicals since Les Miserables in 2000. Co-producer Ben Crowley said the theatre society wanted the show to “challenge the boundaries from an artistic perspective”. “We thought we were best able to create a landscape of vastness in Costa Hall, which is suited to (main character) Teyve’s struggles to preserve his family’s Jewish traditions in the face of changes in Russian society.” Crowley said the Costa Hall production would give one of Geelong’s leading actors, Howard Dandy, his long-awaited chance to play the coveted role of Tevye. “It was nice to give Geelong’s leading actor the opportunity to play a role he has always wanted to play,” Crowley said. “It will also be the first time, in acting careers spanning 30 to 40 years, that he and his brother Bert (who plays The Rabbi) have
appeared in the same show together.” Crowley said the cast of 75 featured 18 children and nearly as many teenagers, fulfilling one of the lyric society’s aims of bringing experienced actors together with inexperienced thespians beginning their careers. “Having so many wonderful, experienced actors in the show has really lifted the level of the performance. All the youngsters are learning a lot.” Crowley attributed the ongoing appeal of Fiddler on the Roof to the power of the story and its rich music. “Audiences love it because the emotion and strength of the story is passed on through the musical score, which is, I believe, the best in musical theatre. “It also explains why some of Geelong’s best musicians have volunteered for the orchestra – that and the wonderful orchestra pit at Costa Hall.” The lyric society’s production of Fiddler on the Roof will be at Costa Hall, in Deakin University’s Waterfront campus, from June 10 to 18.
’80s enough for a loving tribute

BY ERIN PEARSON FOUR legends of Australian rock will “bling up” Geelong in a tribute to the ’80s on Saturday night, according to former Kids in the Kitchen frontman Scott Carne. He will join Uncanny X-Men’s Brian Mannix, Models’ Sean Kelly and Real Life’s David Sterry when they perform their hits in Absolutely ’80s at Corio’s Gateway Hotel. Carne said the show was like a “jukebox” of tunes. “It’s about reminiscing; taking you back to the ’80s time vault when we had huge chart topping hits,” he laughed. “People who are in their ’30s and ’40s can go back and relive their crazy teenager years. “Some of us have put on a few pounds and have a few more wrinkles but we’ll step up to the plate and bling it up.” Kids in the Kitchen became a household name with double-platinum debut album Shine and five top 10 singles including Change In Mood, Bitter Desire and Current Stand. But the band “fell off the radar after the ’80s bubble burst”, Carne said. Carne and Mannix put together Absolutely ’80s after watching a Countdown Spectacular in 2006. “We realised we weren’t inventing the wheel any more with our music but enjoyed it so much we wanted to refresh it and take it out on the road.” Carne said the Gateway audience could expect hits such as Uncanny X-Men’s 50 Years and Everybody Wants To Work, Model’s I Hear Motion and Out of Mind Out of Sight and Real Life’s Send Me an Angel and Catch Me, I’m Falling.

Fisho’s ‘the best’ ishermen’s Pier has won a Victorian Seafood Industry 2011 award for Best Seafood Restaurant. The win has helped re-establish the iconic venue as one of the best fine dining restaurants in Geelong and Victoria. The restaurant was cited for “striving to serve the freshest and best regional and seasonal seafood available”. Co-owner George Katos was rapt with the award. “We were thrilled to win after taking over the restaurant just five months ago,” he said.

fresh produce and excellent customer service. The judges acknowledged that the restaurant provided ongoing staff training, including seafood tastings and information on where each species on the menu was caught. “We try to have the catch on the plate the same day,” George said. “We’re really fussy on freshness. For instance, we get our fresh rock lobster locally each day from Apollo Bay – you can’t go wrong if you’re cooking that fresh.” The award also recognised the innovation and presentation brought to the menu by hat-winning chef Tyler Vakidis who completed an apprenticeship with TV’s George Calambaris at The

ew simple contemporary pleasures are more enjoyable than catching up with friends over lattes or a bite to eat in relaxed surroundings. Diners find this combination working beautifully at Soft Cafes across Geelong. Soft also has a strong focus on the competitive takeaway coffee market, offering three sizes in respective strengths. Soft’s own freshly ground blend from Redstar is available along with organic beans and decaf. The cafes have three styles of chai latte, all made with passion and pride. Customers can phone in their orders to ensure coffees are sitting on the bench as they walk in the door. Functions and events are equally important at Soft, with the cafes developing a strong reputation for hosting both over the past 12 months. Two of the venues are licensed. Options for finger food are affordable, with prospective customers advised to consider contacting Soft’s management team for a quote and further discussion. Clients can visit www.softcafe.com.au to make enquiries and view the venues. Soft owner Craig Morrissy knows that each event is different, “so individual quotes are necessary to meet the requests of the host”. “Soft can offer its facilities at reasonable prices because the cafes generally don’t open in evenings, so availability is usually no problem.” Craig says the food servings are substantial, wholesome and priced to meet most budgets. “We don’t kid ourselves by aiming at the top end of the market. We are in the middle-market, providing relaxed surroundings, quality finger food and sincere customer service”. Soft’s cafes are heating during winter and have smoking areas outside. Wheelchair and pram-friendly, the cafes also have room for a few toys for children. Catering enquiries, applications for employment and provision of feedback on recent visits is available by emailing info@softcafe.com.au.

LOSING WEIGHT WITH MANDY FISHER nce again the cold winter months are approaching. We tend to look for food that will warm and fill us up. Hectic winter schedules can leave little time for cooking healthy meals. People often opt for quick, less-than-healthy meals from fast-food restaurants and other places in order to save time. But eating at home usually leads to healthier eating. Since time is precious, here are some fast and easy, healthy dinner choices to get you through the season. Slow cookers can be a huge time saver. Throw in a lean roast in the morning along with some of your favorite vegetables and come home to a delicious, healthy meal. Chickens are available in deli sections of most grocery stores. These chickens are cooked and ready to serve, so just remove the skin into the bin, pick up a bag of frozen vegetables and cook a few potatoes or sweet potatoes in the microwave and you’ll have dinner on the table in less than 15 minutes. Pizza may not sound like a healthy meal but you can make a nutritious pizza at home in less than 30 minutes. Start with a large pita bread then top it with pizza sauce and veggies such as mushrooms, spinach, and green peppers. Sprinkle with reduced-fat mozzarella cheese and bake at 190C for about 15 minutes. If you want meat on your pizza, choose lean ham, chicken or bacon. Soups are wintertime favorites for many people. Cook a huge pot of soup for your family on the weekend and you’ll have a couple good meals for the week.
O
Chick pea and chorizo soup The following recipe creates a nutritious winter meal to feed four. INGREDIENTS: 1 chorizo sausage, sliced finely; 2 teaspoons prepared garlic; 400g can diced tomatoes; 400g can chickpeas, drained; 2 cups chicken stock; 1 bunch silverbeet. METHOD: Spray a soup pot with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Cook chorizo for two minutes until crisp. Reduce heat and add garlic, tomatoes, chickpeas, stock and two cups cold water. Bring to the boil. Finely shred the silverbeet leaves and chop the stalks. Add the stalks to the pan and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally for 10 minutes until heated through. Add the silverbeet leaves and simmer two mins until the leaves have wilted. Divide evenly into four soup bowls.
If you have cooked a pot of soup that is mainly vegetable it’s easy to turn it into a hearty meal by adding cooked pasta or rice and beans or lentils or cooked meat such as chicken, lamb or beef. You can also freeze soup and just reheat in the microwave. The Weight Works can help you learn to use normal food to stay warm and lose weight.

Easy removal for men’s hair eelong Hair Removal has the latest technology in hair removal with the Soprano laser. This new laser is proving to be popular with clients, particularly among men for their back, arms and chest areas. Getting rid of unwanted hair can boost a man’s confidence and self-esteem. The only issue preventing many men from undertaking laser hair removal is perceptions that the procedure is painful. However, Soprano’s trademarked IN MOTION action gently heats the targeted area with pulses of energy that gradually heat the follicles in the skin’s sub dermal layer. While pain tolerance is subjective, many clients describe the sensation as soothing like a hot stone massage. Most laser hair removal technologies utilise large amounts of heat to destroy hair follicles and ensure permanent reduction. But Soprano IN MOTION decreases the pain and minimises the risk of side effects, so numbing cream is not required. Geelong Hair Removal uses only industry goldstandard diode lasers, which are medically classified Grade 4B with a wavelength of 810 nanometres for permanent hair removal. The number of treatments required is significant-

20th show supports New Arrivals
QUOTA INTERNATIONAL PRESENTS
raft enthusiasts from around the state will flock to a 20th annual Geelong Doll, Teddy and Craft Show next month. With around 40 stalls of doll and teddy paraphernalia, the show is set to attract more than 500 patrons. This year’s show also includes a jewellery store and a hair braiding workshop. Organised by women’s service club Quota International Geelong, all proceeds will go to Diversitat’s Women and Children New Arrivals project. The braiding workshop will be run by Sudanese women demonstrating traditional skills. The women are part of the New Arrivals project, assisting people from Sudan, Liberia, Congo, Afghanistan and Burma in their transition to urban western life. Club member and Diversitat worker Rosemary Stewart says refugees often need trauma counselling. “Some of the women have arrived under a protection visa and most are single or widows with children. Many haven’t been to school and have been living in refugee camps and face issues like language, housing, mental health and wellbeing and parenting.” Ms Stewart says the project also offers a coastal holiday house for short family breaks and transport to medical and family appointments and outings.

Dodge nut: Murray Coster admits to being one-eyed about the Dodge since he first saw one 73 years ago. His latest car is this big, comfortable 1937 model. Picture: Tommy Ritchie

anifold Heightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Murray Coster describes himself as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Dodge nut from way backâ&#x20AC;?. Murray said he fell in love with the Dodge in 1938 when his uncle, a commercial traveller for an engineering firm, visited the family regularly in Swan Hill. â&#x20AC;&#x153;On this particular occasion he arrived in the latest Dodge Sloper. The sloper was a streamlined, two-door thing with a little boot on the back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would have been sevenyears-old and that was the start of my love affair with Dodges and I have refused to look at anything else since,â&#x20AC;? he laughed. Murray has owned several Dodges but admits to once owning a 1937 black Ford 10. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had that for a couple of years but I wanted something a bit bigger and a bit more comfortable so I sold the Ford when I found the 1937 Dodge,â&#x20AC;? Murray said.
Waneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wheels GREG WANE He found the Dodge, 22 years ago, fully restored by a car enthusiast in Corowa and later sold in Bendigo. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have since completely redone the inside: the upholstery, trims, head lining, doors, seats and instrument panel,â&#x20AC;? Murray explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The bloke that restored the car did not have any taste for colours and the interior was terrible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It had black headlining and dark brown seats, it looked absolutely shocking. â&#x20AC;&#x201C; continued page 61

as a “challenge” to drive. “It has got no power brakes, no power steering, no nothing. I am getting to the age where I really need the power steering. It is just all muscle power. “I have to keep my distance from cars in front because of the lack of braking power. They’re just normal hydraulic brakes and the car weighs about a ton and a half.” Murray said it wasn’t power he wanted. “I bought the car because it is nice and comfortable to ride in and it’s a Dodge.

“He had even painted the instrument panel a dirty brown colour.” Murray’s big cream coloured Dodge represents the style of the day with its big broad mudguards, running boards and the rear slopping panels. The shape was similar across the other big makes, Ford and Chevrolet, during late 1930s America. “I’ve got a 1929 Dodge as well, but this one’s a lot more streamlined and much more comfortable to drive.” As well as restoring the interior, Murray has had the engine out a couple of times “for little noises”. “When it began to develop strange noises, I re-sleeved the engine and ground the crankshaft. “I had the engine out again about three years ago, to deal with some more little noises, but basically it is a reliable old bus that just keeps going.” Murray is originally from Swan Hill where he did his motor mechanic’s apprenticeship at the Dodge garage. “My Dodge has got a straight-six, side valve engine, it’s about 3200 cubic centimetres. “It is not so powerful but it pulls very well. It’s the smallest of the Dodge engines that went into the car. The motor size was optional with a range of engines to choose from. The car looked the same from the outside but it was available with various cubicinch capacities. “They did have straight eights from about 1930 but phased them out by 1935. “The car’s got a manual transmission and the overdrive came as an optional extra. I managed to pick up an overdrive a few years ago and install it and now the car whistles along nicely.” But Murray said the overdrive has done little to improve the fuel economy. “It probably would have if I drove it more sensibly. I tend to have a very heavy foot, and I can keep up with the modern traffic reasonably well. “If I get 17 miles to the gallon I am going well. It can deliver 22 - 25 depending on how fast you are going.” Murray said he drives the Dodge regularly on long distance rallies with the Western District Historic Vehicle Club. Murray said the car is best described

sport Swans to swoop on Bell Park Just typical: Matt McDonnell with a typical Portland tuna.
Salmon, squid lead action as conditions settle CALM conditions in the past week produced some outstanding action on salmon along the coast and squid in Corio Bay’s outer-harbour. The water was often clean along in the surf, with anglers finding huge numbers of salmon from the beaches and rock platforms. My good mate John Mole and I had a hot bite last weekend, catching and releasing over 50 fish. Most were just under 1kg but at times the return was a fish a cast. The following day returned fewer fish but I still landed a dozen, the best around 1.3kg. All our fish were taken on lures. Gary Marshal hit the sand at Eastern View where the fish were on the bite from the first cast. Two hours of frantic action produced any number of salmon to almost 1.5kg on lure. Salmon also entertained Bob Harding while fishing the beach at Cumberland River on the high tide. Bob caught nine fish, including a beauty just over 3kg. Estuary anglers found salmon in the Barwon River, with most around 500g but a few better fish to 1kg among them. Bait worked but soft plastics returned the best results. Xavier Norton fished Queenscliff’s cut for trevally with Turtleback worms on the lead up to high tide, landing four fish to 1.3kg. He also lost two others while trying to lift them up to the pier, estimating them at closer to 2kg each. Freddy Knowles caught two nice gummy shark at the entrance to Swan Bay, the best 4.3kg cleaned. However, the 4kg snapper he also caught made for a great night, especially on 3kg line. Steve Sharp fished Swan Bay Jetty where all was quiet until just on midnight when a reel screamed off with a tailor that later weighed 3kg. That was the only bite until Steve left at 5am. Whiting were a little quieter but fish
On the bite BRIAN LONG
Ink, pink: A calamari pounces on a Squid Snatcher jig. were still taken from St Leonards to Clifton Springs. Anglers fishing the build up to high tide with fresh squid and pippies enjoyed the best results. Anglers were for some reason still catching great numbers of squid and some big specimens at that. All the best results came from less than two metres of water on the shallow weed beds, especially between Clifton Springs and Hermsley. A wide range of coloured jigs worked but the smaller jigs, generally in a size 2.5, were best. Soft plastics anglers caught quality flathead and small snapper on the outer-harbour spoil grounds, with Gulp minnows and Turtleback worms productive on the run-off from high tide. Salmon were still available in the inner
and outer harbours but land-based anglers found them difficult to locate consistently. Fish were taken at St Helens, the entrance to the grammar school lagoon and The Carousel but boat anglers caught the most fish, especially close to the quarries. Cold nights kept most snapper anglers off the water but some who braved the late-night sessions reported some quality fish to more than 5kg from the area directly out of the silos piers. Pilchard and silver whiting were the baits, with small gummy sharks also present. With winter here our lakes will start hosting some great trout fishing. Lake Bullen Merri has been producing rainbows to 1.5kg on Powerbait fished under a running rig from the shore. Anglers trolling have taken also fish, many showing up on sounders at three to six metres down. Anglers continued catching rainbows as Hepburn Lagoon, with all methods successful. Lake Elingamite was a standout, with redfin to 1.5kg a common catch as well as awesome brown trout nudging 3kg. Small boats are essential, with bait and lures equally successful. Wurdee Boluc Reservoir was still fishing well, with some redfin over 2kg taken recently as well as trout in excess of 3kg. Most trout have been closer to 1kg and taken on lure. Portland remained the hot destination for tuna, with any number of smaller fish still available in as close as the 40-metre depth. Plenty of fish were also caught out wide where anglers have enjoyed the added bonus of some awesome dolphin fish. Small, skirted lures such as the Pakula Uzis have been bringing the most success.

LOCAL footy returns to home-andaway games this weekend after last week’s interleague games. Geelong Football League was the only side to record victory, with Bellarine and Geelong and District leagues suffering narrow losses. Geelong Football League followers finally get to see the league’s two top teams play each other this weekend, with South Barwon hosting Bell Park at McDonalds Reserve. Both sides are undefeated after six rounds, with Bell Park only sitting on top of the ladder above the Swans due to a bigger percentage. These two also met in last year’s grand final when South Barwon won the flag, as it also did when the two met in 2007, so a rich rivalry is evident. Bell Park recruited Paul Waldron and James Rock to bolster the side this year and this game will test whether it has improved enough to win its first flag since 2003 What we do know is that South Barwon has won the past two premierships and six of the past 11 and the way it has started this year it is set to win another. The Swans love the big games, with Clinton Wells a prime example of a player who never lets them down when the pressure is on. This will be a high standard game, with only home-ground advantage tipping the scales in South Barwon’s favour. Other selections: Colac v ST JOSEPHS, NEWTOWN v Grovedale, Leopold v NORTH SHORE, West Saints v LARA and ST MARY’S and St Albans.
BFL This weekend’s round of Bellarine Football League games is highlighted by the clash between Queenscliff and Anglesea at Queenscliff. Anglesea is having a wonderful season and sits second on the ladder. Mature-aged recruit David Mensch is performing admirably, while stalwarts Brock Shiels and Christian Robertson are setting a great example to the younger Roos. Queenscliff is also flying and sits
Local Footy FRANK MASON third on the ladder. The Orvis boys, Steve Owen and Roscoe Holmes are playing well and the Coutas will play finals this year. Whether they’re good enough to win a premiership is a question still to be answered. Winning this game would put them well in contention and coach Heath Jamieson would be drilling his players on the game’s importance. It’s always hard for visiting teams at Queenscliff and Anglesea will find the going too tough. Other selections: BARWON HEADS v Newcomb, Modewarre v DRYSDALE, Portarlington v AMATEURS, Torquay v OCEAN GROVE.
GDFL Werribee Centrals will find out where its premiership aspirations sit when it hosts Bell Post Hill at Galvin Park on Saturday. At this stage of the season most punters have pencilled in East Geelong and Bell Post Hill as certain grand finalists, with Inverleigh the smoky in the field. Werribee always manages to slip under the radar but the Centurions sit third on the ladder and must be rated a chance. David Leatch has plenty of talent at hand, with Anthony Kitchen, Brendan Chugg and Nathan Lovell capable performers. Bell Post Hill is purring along and is yet to lose a game. Injuries to Shaun Lewis and Brent Grgic in last weekend’s interleague game won’t help its cause but it should still have enough talent to win this one. Other selections: WINCHELSEA v Corio, North Geelong v EAST GEELONG, Bannockburn v INVERLEIGH, Belmont Lions v Thomson, ANAKIE v Geelong West.
