Dual titles pay-off for busy Cameron BY MICHELLE HERBISON YEARS of gruelling training have paid off for Grovedale’s Cameron Brown with two sport aerobics world championships titles. The 20-year-old won the sport’s men’s singles and mixed categories on the Gold Coast last week. “I wasn’t expecting it,” he said. “In the singles the past two years I came third, so I was hoping to get up there.” Brown spent the year flying back and forth to Newcastle for training with partner Allira Bull while juggling 16 hours a week of training with coaching duties and studying education at Deakin University. He said sport aerobics’ two-minute routines required strength, flexibility and co-ordination. “There’s music playing and you’re on stage with hundreds of people watching and cheering you.” Geelong Aerosport Allstars coach Justine Bratanavicius, of Jan Juc, said the club had its most successful year at the Federation of Sport Aerobics and Fitness Worlds. Torquay’s Emily Daniels, 18, finished second in mixed pairs and Bratanavicius’s 12-year-old daughter, Tahnee, was runner-up in a juniors category. “They all did the most amazing routines in the finals and blew me away,” Bratanavicius said.

Bus guards ‘bashed’ Pirrottina said. “There are a couple of rowdy kids you’ve got to deal with and you get a lot of pushes and shoves.” Mr Pirrottina said a 17-year-old head-butted the officer in the attack last Friday afternoon. The officer was injured after asking the teen to stop drinking alcohol in public. The officer went to hospital after the attack and spent “a cou-

tatives” rather than traditional security workers. “It’s not like the old days when we had meathead bouncers, we’re trying to change that image. We deal with people differently.” The latest assault followed reports in the Independent over the past two months on concerns about safety at the interchange. The paper revealed in late September that an unnamed security guard had witnessed children

as young as 10 begging for money and fighting. Geelong councillor Andy Richards said council had heard State Government would stop funding the safety officers. “These officers were put there to assist bus patrons and it’s important we help people with public transport. I’d like to see State Government continue to fund the officers for at least another six months.”

Cr Richards said the Government was responsible for security at the interchange. A Department of Transport spokesperson said “customer service staff” would remain at the interchange until “improved signage” was installed. “The Department of Transport has committed to continuing funding for customer service staff at Moorabool St bus interchange,” the spokesperson said.

He wanted the teen charged to “teach him a lesson”. “They have the attitude ‘You can’t do anything to us, we’re only minors’, so they push you around. “I want to know who’s responsible for them.

‘Surprise’ over new levy talks BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A FRESH round of consultations on plans to hit property owners with an annual $200 fire levy has surprised Geelong leaders. Councillor Bruce Harwood, who holds council’s finance portfolio, said he was unaware of State Government’s new public consultations until the Independent alerted him. The Independent discovered plans to run the consultations on a Government website. The Government’s initial submissions period closed recently. Cr Harwood was “not surprised” the Government was seeking further feedback on the controversial levy. “There’s certainly some apprehension on the part of the Government on this,” Cr Harwood said. “It (additional consultations) is a good way to find out what community thinks about the level and the process of the levy.” The Independent reported last month that council was refusing to collect the proposed fire services levy. The Government’s proposed changes to the existing insurance-based levy would include the new charge on rates notices. Cr Harwood said administration of the levy could lead to “cash-flow exposure” for council. A council report said the levy would cost on average $200. Geelong Chamber of Commerce president Jim Walsh said he was also

Surprised: Bruce Harwood. unaware of the new public consultations. “It makes sense because the Government recognises it will be a significant change,” Mr Walsh said. “What we don’t want is for this to delay action because this had already gone on for years. “So many reviews have recommended this, so now it’s time to get on with it. “I can understand why councils are nervous because they fear a public backlash but I don’t think that would be the case. Provided the changes are explained there’s no reason why the fire levy should be confused with council rates.” The Government will run its consultation meeting from 2pm November 14 at Geelong Masonic Hall, Regent St, Belmont.

Under the weather LINDSAY SMAIL

Dams 90% after our wet October THE REGION experienced well-above average rain in October. Urban Geelong received between 60mm and 90mm, while Anakie had well over 100mm. The average for October is 50mm. Most of the rain was at the start and the end of the month, with the middle weeks comparatively dry. An interesting period between October 29 and 30 featured a small wrap-around system powered by a low to our east, which pushed up rain bands from the south to provide unexpected heavy falls over 20mm in Geelong. In the Otways catchment area, Weeaproinah and Lavers Hill both recorded over 200mm for the month. Even though West Barwon Reservoir recorded below-average rain, Mt Sabine, at the head of the catchment, received 150mm. The falls left Geelong’s water supplies at a healthy 90 per cent of capacity at the end of the month. Although the Bureau of Meteorology’s threemonth outlook is for dry conditions over summer in south-western Victoria, a developing La Nina suggests otherwise. It should also be remembered the Geelong region often fails to conform to the bureau’s outlooks. Temperatures in October were clearly above average. Taking into account the warmer urban site of Geelong’s new weather station, overall temperatures were above 1C higher than normal. The average daily minimum was 10C and the maximum 19.9C, giving October an overall figure of 15C. The long-term average for the area is only 13.1C but the observed site difference would account for at least .6C. The top temperature was 30.8C on October 19, while the lowest overnight was 4.1C on the 18th. The month recorced two thunder days but no severe storms. On the wettest day, which was up to 9am on October 1, over 20mm fell and caused some minor street flooding but without noteworthy damage. Only one strong wind day was recorded for the month, with a gust of 63km/h from the west on October 16.

in brief

City set for 25 cruises a year, says new study Mr Katos said the push would encourage more tourists to visit regional Victoria, with a cruise ship also visiting Portland this season. The Independent reported in August that two cruise ships were scheduled to visit Geelong this summer. Spirit of Adventure’s 348 passengers would arrive on December 20, while the 684 capacity Regatta was set to visit on February 17 and 18. Mr Katos said the stopovers would offer passengers a number of shore excursions, including to the 12

Apostles, Warrnambool and the Grampians. Mayor John Mitchell said the preliminary reports “sound good” but demanded an investment in waterfront infrastructure. “If that was the case, if we had Yarra St pier built and in place the ability to cater for 25 cruise ships would be there,” Cr Mitchell said. “But we’re a long way from that happening, so the key word here appears to be preliminary. “I haven’t been told the result of this

POLICE have called for witnesses to a fatal smash between a truck and a car near Winchelsea early last Friday. Police said the driver of the Ford sedan died at the scene and his male passenger was seriously injured in the head-on smash on the Princes Hwy, with the log truck driver escaping uninjured.

report but there’s no doubt that if we had the infrastructure in place there’d be nothing to stop this type of activity happening. “The economic impact would depend on how long they stay. Our goal is to have a cruise ship stationed here.” Cr Mitchell confirmed the two cruise ships visits this summer would operate from a swing mooring rather than dock at Cunningham Pier. Council has plans for a $22.4 million project to rebuild Yarra St for uses including cruise ship berthing.

‘100 jobs in pipeline’ at new $17m Corio factory BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A NEW $17 million factory at Corio could create 100 jobs, according to management. RPC Technologies strategy and development manager Andrew Sarich said the Heales Rd factory had already hired 40 but could add more with further success. The factory had already delivered four 70-tonne pipes to Wonthaggi’s desalination plant, he said. Victorian Manufacturing Minister Richard Dalla-Riva officially launched the factory on Wednesday. RPC Australia received a matching $2.75 million grant from Geelong Investment and Innovation Fund for the Corio project. L Bisinella Developments spent $12 million building the 5600 square metre facility. Mr Sarich said the Corio facility had capability to deliver to “all the company’s business units”. “The project has created 40 jobs at the moment but is capable of 100 employees per shift as we get more business,” he said. “We hope to open up new market opportunities in Victoria.” RPC Technologies has an annual turnover of $65 million, employing 500 staff in Sydney, Newcastle, Adelaide and Indonesia. The company manufactures composite materials for defence, water, transport, mining and energy sectors. Mr Dalla-Riva and Member for Western Victoria Region David Koch used the factory opening to launch a new $800,000 industry partnership program. Mr Dalla-Riva said the joint program with Deakin University and Geelong Manufacturing Council aimed to boost manufacturing jobs in the region.

Bypass closure VICROADS will close 200 metres of lanes on Geelong’s bypass at Corio to carry out resealing work before an influx of traffic around Christmas, according to project director Tony Hedley. Mr Hedley said one lane would remain open each way during the work to replace cracked asphalt near Beckley Park, with the project to begin on Monday with the right weather.

Jobs cut IMPROVED maintenance has cost the jobs of 22 workers at Shell’s Corio refinery, the company has announced. Refinery general manager Marck Schubert said the reduction in breakdown work had forced Shell into the “difficult but necessary decision” to cut the jobs.

Centre step CONSTRUCTION work on a $9.5 million children’s centre at Ocean Grove is scheduled to begin mid-2012 after City Hall appointed an architect this week. The City said the new facility next to Bellarine Aquatic and Sports Centre would include a kindergarten, playgrounds, day care and maternal and child health services.

Disaster warning RESIDENTS should update their mobile phone service addresses to receive emergency alert disaster warning text messages this summer, Corangamite MP Darren Cheeseman has advised. Mr Cheeseman said the new system was ready for this year’s “disaster season”, with the service particularly important to residents in fire-prone areas such as the Otways.

Geelong victim alleges inaction over dog attacks BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A WOMAN whose pet has endured two dog attacks this year has accused council and State Government of inaction. The 24-year-old from Highton said both levels of government had taken little action after she reported the attacks on her dog. In the latest attack three uncontrolled dogs set on the woman and her white terrier cross near the former Geelong Golf Club last weekend.

THE REGION has recorded its lowest unemployment rate for two years, according to Federal Government. Member for Corangamite Darren Cheeseman said the 3.8 per cent figure for the Barwon Western District region was a “very good number”.

“I reported the attacks but each time the authorities weren’t very interested,” she said “The police said to contact the council and the council said they would get back to me within 24 hours but they didn’t.” The woman wanted to remain unidentified, fearing reprisals from the owner of the three dogs. She said they left her scratched, bruised and with torn clothing after she picked up her pet to protect it from injury.

“They (authorities) seem to think that a dog-on-dog attack is not worth doing anything about but it could be a child next time. “I know it’s not the dogs as much as it is the owners but if nothing’s done people will be too scared to walk their dogs anymore.” City of Greater Geelong health and local laws manager Steve Sodomaco said staff were investigating the latest attack. Council also investigated the previ-

ous incident, which reached a resolution between the parties, he said. “So far this year 100 dog attacks have been reported to council, many of which were rushes rather than attacks resulting in injury,” Mr Sodomaco said. “There was one serious attack on a person and 26 attacks that resulted in a minor injury to the person or persons involved.” Mr Sodomaco said council had declared three dangerous dogs this year.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN GEELONG could accommodate 25 cruise ship visits a year by 2025, according to preliminary results of a new study. The study said developing Geelong as a cruise ship destination would add $25 million a year to the economy and create more than 100 full-time jobs. South Barwon MP Andrew Katos said he welcomed State Government’s decision to develop Geelong as a cruise ship destination.

New airport to mix trainee pilots with jumbo jets

Going for second best Armstrong Creek housing. The report recommended that the City, Avalon’s airport operator and State Government work together on a long-term plan for Avalon. Lethbridge Airpark should help to submit an application for funding to cover runway and lighting upgrades, the report said. The study estimated developing a regional airport at Avalon would cost up to $25 million and take up to two years. Avalon Airport owner Linfox was drawing up a master plan for the site to include facilities for general aviation. “A permanent development at

Avalon East would most probably consist of a single north-south orientated runway up to 1500m long parallel to the existing runway at Avalon Airport, based on a two kilometre separation,” the report said. “A preliminary review of the proposed location of the Avalon East runway would appear to satisfy line-ofsight issues and response times from the existing Avalon air traffic control tower.” Geelong Airport operator Andrew Townley said he would relocate to Tocumwal at the end of the year because Avalon would be too expensive.

“The big issue for us is the cost – it’s going to be a fair bit more than what we’re paying at Grovedale,” Mr Towley said. “We had to draw a line in the sand and realise its not going to work for us.” Mr Towley said mixing beginner pilot students with jet aircraft was undesirable. He would return to Geelong only to complete annual reviews for his trained pilots. The Independent reported in March that Mr Townley believed a move to Avalon would cost him scenic joy flight customers, a significant part of his business.

Growth ‘options’ out for comment community, business and development groups. We now need feedback from the wider community. “This is critical to ensure the G21 regional growth plan truly reflects how we, the people of the region, want it to look like in the future.� Ms Carbines said the scenarios proposed “growing in�, “shared� growth or “new communities� between existing population centres. “In scenario one, our region grows in and up, not out. People would be living in apartments and townhouses, close to public transport and shops, spending

less time in cars. “Scenario two envisages population and growth shared across the region along transport corridors. Employment opportunities would grow in Colac, Torquay and central Geelong. “Growing out would see growth in new communities along the edge of Geelong, connecting with Torquay, Leopold and Lara, using more land for housing. Ms Carbines said residents would be able to provide feedback in a series of workshops, listening posts and an online discussion forum. She encouraged attendance at

workshops in Bannockburn, Belmont, Colac, Geelong and Winchelsea. “We’ll also be available to listen to the community’s feedback at 30 different listening posts across the region. If you’re unable to participate in the activities we encourage you to join our online forum at www.G21regionalgrowthplan.com.au. “The feedback we receive from this community engagement process will shape the draft G21 regional growth plan.� Ms Carbines said a draft of the plan will be available in April.

‘Study tours’ recommended

ADVERTISEMENT

GRAND OPENING Global tip for

Action Kayak and Sail is staying true to its motto of “pedal, paddle, sail, fish” in its new premises at Portarlington Rd, Moolap. The company is the only dealer of Hobie kayaks this side of Melbourne. The new showroom displays a full range of Hobie paddle and pedal kayaks and stand-uppaddle-boards. At an open day on November 12 everything in-store over $10 will be discounted by ten per cent and there will be a Pedal Kayak and a Hobie Stand Up Paddle board given away. There will be a sausage sizzle and trade experts to give advice. Everyone is welcome on the day to check out these great craft. Neil says Hobie pedal kayaks are a great choice for a cruisy fishing adventure. “The Pro Angler is just a beast,” he says. “It is so stable you can stand up in it and fish. Being a pedal system, they are hands-free and anybody can do it.” He said the kayaks are easy to put on a car and quick to clean, making them a better option than a tinny.

retail’s future Action Kayak and Sail also sell recreational single and double kayaks, both with pedal and paddle features. Some can also have a sail attached. There is also a range of true sailing trimaran kayaks with roller furling sails in a single and a double. Neil says they are great fun with the feel of a sports car on water. Stand-up-paddle-boarding is the fastest growing sport in the USA and Neil says Australia is also getting on board. He says they are great to work upper body and core strength. “The 12-footer is huge, you could invite ten guests and have a party on it,” he says. “All in all we are ‘shaping a lifestyle’”.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN GEELONG could expect to be left behind if it failed to make a “knowledge investment” in its central retail area, according to a Deakin University expert. International retail industry specialist Steve Ogden-Barnes recommended study tours of similar retail precincts overseas. “Geelong should seek inspiration from international waterfront central activities areas,” he said. Mr Ogden-Barnes will present a Getting Retail Right seminar as part of a Survive and Thrive business advice series next week. “We need to ask who is in a similar situation in other countries and then reach out to those people and seek inspiration. There are areas like Vancouver and the Bayside precinct in Los Angeles that have reinvented themselves. “We need to go on a waterfront retail study tour and talk to places that have gone through it. Send a delegation to some waterfront economies and see how they do it.

Expert: Steve OgdenBarnes. “Every other business sector sends people overseas to see what is going on. “Corporate retail precincts need investment and, although I may be doing a disservice to those involved, I don’t see much of that happening. “Geelong can expect to be left behind if it does not make a knowledge investment in its central area.” Mr Ogden-Barnes said central

retailers needed to band together rather than operate as individual competing businesses. “It seems there’s a lack of a united voice and plan among the retailers, with some even fighting the central Geelong marketing extra rate. “Retailers in the central area should take a strategic view as a team of central retailers, not as a group of independent traders in a battlefield. “But if Geelong simply does more of the same, it is in danger.” Mr Ogden-Barnes said retailers often had no qualifications or technical skills in areas such as merchandise management and marketing. “Retailers can invest in their own businesses by upskilling. “The functional transactional approach needs to be replaced with something more dynamic.” Geelong Chamber of Commerce’s Survive and Thrive program will continue on Tuesday at Deakin’s Geelong Waterfront campus.

HAVE YOUR SAY WINDSOR PARK MASTER PLAN REVIEW DRAFT MASTERPLAN

NEW MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH CENTRE IN REYNOLDS ROAD, BELMONT

The City of Greater Geelong has carried out a review of the Master Plan for Windsor Park located between Rose Avenue and Gerbera Avenue Norlane. The reserve currently accommodates a range of active uses including football, little league, netball, cricket and a skate park.

We're about to open a brand new Maternal and Child Health Centre at 29-31 Reynolds Road in Belmont (next to the Tenpin Bowling Centre).

The purpose of the project was to prepare a revised Master Plan for the Windsor Park Reserve in Norlane, which incorporates a review of the existing Master Plan (1997), site conditions, land ownership, past history and the future aspirations of key user groups of Windsor Park.

The new centre will replace the Grovedale Maternal and Child Health Centre in Noila Street, which has now closed.

The revised Master Plan will provide guidance for the City of Greater Geelong, the Windsor Park Advisory Committee, North Shore Recreation Club and regular user groups, in their aim to enhance and improve the existing reserve and its facilities for the greater benefit of the local community.

It will open on Monday 7 November.

To find out more call our Family Services department on 5272 4741.

GEELONG’S council will save $22,200 on power annually after spending $163,500 on energy efficiency upgrades at two facilities, according to figures from City Hall. The upgrades replaced lighting and installed solar power panels at a North Geelong depot while adding a pool blanket to Norlane’s Waterworld as part of

council’s “EcoChallenge” program. The City said parts from the replaced 450kW lights at the depot were “recycled where possible”. Councillor John Doull said the upgrades would also cut 50 tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions from the depot. Council was pursing “a wide range of energy efficiency initiatives” through EcoChallenge, he said.

Catfish make a splash JOHN VAN KLAVEREN of Australian Union of Senior Swimmers International since 1986. Members regularly participate in club meets as well as occasional state and national swimming events. “Our members love the challenge but there’s a strong social aspect to getting together,” Lynette said. “People do it for fitness because it’s low-impact, especially if you’re recovering from injuries. “Swimming is one of the most effective forms of exercise for improving aerobic fit-

In the swim: Fiona Kersten, Colin Thelwell, Robyn Clancy and Jillene Delahunty make a splash for Geelong Catfish. Picture: John Conway 72198 ness, resisting coronary disease, lowering blood pressure and improving muscle tone and posture.” Lynnett said the squad had its own experienced coach and covered a variety of strokes, with shorter and longer sets and distances. The club aimed to have

squads at various swim centres around the region to enable more people to participate. “We do different drills to practise our stroke techniques to improve our times,” Lynette said. “Records are registered, so there’s a competitive edge to it, especially when we compete

against other clubs and states.” Lynette said club members had won state and national medals, with Margot Milne achieving FINA Masters World ranking of fourth in 2007 and 2008. She also won three silver medals at Perth FINA World titles in 2008 and two gold at Sydney’s 2009 World Masters Games, while 1984 Lorne Pier to Pub winner John Lidstone holds a 25metre state record for backstroke. The club was open to anyone aged from 18, although members tended to be “slightly older than that”, she smiled. Lynette said the squad met Tuesday and Thursday nights at Norlane Waterworld. She said anyone wanting more information could phone her on 0425 796 479 or visit www.catfish.com.au.

GEELONG has the Cats, Supercats, Wildcats and Baycats. Now the Catfish have added their nickname to the city’s sporting lexicon. Geelong Catfish is a group of masters swimmers proving age is no barrier to enjoying healthy competition. Membership officer Lynette Newman said the club’s oldest member was 79. “We’ve had quite a few people who were competitive swimmers as kids or young adults who have come back into it,” Lynette explained. “Some of our members train for pool competition, some for triathlons and some for ocean swims and some just to relax. One of our members does 12 ocean swims a year.” Part of the masters games structure, the club has been operating under the auspices

letters Stage of shame DESPITE promises to the South Barwon electorate, Planning Minister Matthew Guy has decided big business is far more important than the rights of Grovedale’s hearing-impaired students and the devastating health impact of Geelong’s ring road stage 4C on residents who suffer respiratory illnesses. South Barwon voters got rid of an MP who refused to listen. His replacement is more of the same. Andrew Katos and Mr Guy have failed thousands of residents of Grovedale, Waurn Ponds and Marshall. Shame on them both. Dot Pearce Grovedale

Business over residents PLANNING Minister Matthew Guy said “there is no reason section 4C cannot be moved” but big business is more important than thousands of Grovedale, Waurn Ponds and Marshall voters whose dream homes will now be nightmares. Andrew Katos’s job is to represent the opinions of his constituents. He has failed thousands of voters, many of whom reluctantly voted Liberal for the first time vainly hoping he would do the right thing. All who promote the original alignment of section 4C while ignoring the safety problems are to be condemned. The Victorian Government claims there is no money for nurses and teachers but can find $90 million for a road to nowhere. Who benefits? Not the existing community, that’s for sure. Lee Gladwell Grovedale

Step up on broadband COUNCILS must lead the way to ensure regional Australia benefits from high-speed broadband. This is a recommendation that a regional telecommunications independent review committee heard recently from Dr Tim Williams, a global expert in community regeneration and author of Connecting Communities, a report commissioned by broadband technology company Huawei. His point is clear: if councils don’t act now their communities risk missing out on the wealth of benefits broadband can bring to the bush. Rural and regional Australia is now getting the attention it deserves regarding the critical utility of

Our toxic food gives kids fat chance I AGREE with Stretch Kontelj that the National Partnership Agreement on Preventative Health program to encourage healthy eating will have little impact on waist lines in Geelong (Independent, October 14). Education via newspapers or talks here and there will not override children’s visual learning perception. If they see their parents, friends and media personalities eat unhealthily and unhealthy food is all that’s available to them how can they change their lives? Visual merchandising and marketing is not geared to make society healthy – consider apples rather than chocolates at supermarket checkouts. Government will throw money toward these schemes and programs as an illusion to

Slim pickings: Healthy waistlines will remain a mirage in Geelong due to “toxic” food, according to a reader. make people think government actually cares about their health. There is no money in a healthy society for the medical, pharmaceutical and food industries After learning about the toxicity of our foods, I estimate that

the 21st Century: high-speed broadband. It is time for councils to step up and ensure their communities don’t miss out. Jeremy Mitchell Huawei Australia corporate affairs director

Divinyl birthday I ONLY recently became a resident here and have just discovered that Geelong is the birthplace of Australia’s top female rock performer, Chrissie Amphlett. She has been through hell for the past year fighting breast cancer, which, thankfully, seems in remission. Since it was her birthday, on October 25, I would like to extend to her best wishes for the future on behalf of the people of her birthplace and hope she can count on continued support from us here in Victoria’s premier regional city. Steve Joseph Norlane

Republic omissions TALK is again increasing on the possibility of Australia becoming a republic. Could, then, some erudite scholar inform us of what law and which property titles would not be null and void once a republic was declared?

seven items need to be removed from human consumption to shut down hospitals. These are: artificial sweeteners; flavour enhancing agents; artificial colours; preservatives; tobacco; alcohol; and sugar. To reduce health problems we need to teach people about the toxicity of things they put in their mouths. Why is a salad roll dearer that a burger? The logical costs of the items of each means the burger should be more. Choices are limited for getting something healthy while on the move. When we shift awareness to change, change will happen if people truly value the direction it leads them. Ronald Rapetti Whittington

I fail to see any mention of these issues associated in any discussion of the republic issue. And just who is asking for this and what is wrong with our present system and law, which has quite adequately served us for so long? Gary Oraniuk Geelong West

Sceptics shanghaied THOSE against the carbon tax complain about how they are confused (Letters, October 21). The reason for this is due to the vast amount of misinformation put out by those under the influence of the mega-powerful and fossil fuel industries. It has been known for half a century that pollution by humans has significantly affected the planet. A carbon tax is a small but important step to begin to reduce this problem. As for politics, Julia Gillard changed her mind when she found herself in a minority government. What is more concerning is Tony Abbot’s ceaseless rhetoric about repealing the tax because he so desperately wants to be prime minister. For this he is willing to put at risk tens of billions of dollars worth of investment in clean technology. Leigh Adamson Belmont

FOR OVER two decades the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has told the world the planet is warming. It has also claimed that all its claims are peerreviewed in scientific literature. However, Canadian investigative journalist Donna Lamframboise has documented disturbing facts in her book, The Delinquent Teenager. Her investigation found that one-third of the entire corpus of purportedly peer-reviewed work in the IPCC arsenal is made up of magazine articles and press releases from activist organisations like Greenpeace. She also discovered that some of the so-called top scientists included 23-year-old graduate students! The IPCC is right to say carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas and certainly greenhouse gases trap heat. However, what traps the most heat is not CO2 but water vapour, which comprises 97 per cent of greenhouses gases and has 26 times the greenhouse effect of CO2, which comprises an insignificant one per cent of the atmosphere. The insignificance of CO2 is such that if the entire atmosphere were CO2 it would still absorb no more than eight per cent of heat radiating from Earth. The IPCC’s cherry picking of data and overstating of the influence of anthropogenic carbon emissions has distorted the science and the public debate. Our politicians have unfortunately uncritically accepted the IPCC’s position and committed to spending billions of dollars on a problem that, at worst, does not exist or, at best, poses no threat to the planet. The IPCC should be sued for misrepresenting the science on climate change. Alan Barron Grovedale

Where’s the honesty? IT IS normal for political parties to want to win elections and govern. But when a party misrepresents what it stands for by misleading the public to gain votes then it will behave in an unethical manner. What happened to the honesty and transparency we were promised by the Labor Government when it assumed power? Christina Dengler Norlane

Cave dwellers straight to city his own song, The Lake. “The album cover of Let Love In is so great. I love the piano and guitar woven into each other and the sexy sea shanty kind of vibe and how his voice trails into a really dark side of love.” Abbe May plumped for Electric Alice as her favourite. “There’s a dirtiness about this song, delivered in a really melancholy way with an industrial sounding drum and guitar track. “I think it’s my favourite song because, for some reason, it reminds me of my home town.” With a career spanning 35 years, Cave is one of the true greats of Australian music. Starting with Boys Next Door followed by The Birthday Party, Cave went on to make 14 albums with The Bad Seeds and two more with Grinderman. Joining the singers will be a band led by Sydney writer and musician Cameron Bruce who plays with both Paul Kelly and Washington. Straight to You - Triple J’s Tribute to Nick Cave kicks off in Geelong before taking in Ballarat, Melbourne, Canberra, Sydney, Newcastle and Brisbane. The show will be at Deakin’s Costa Hall, Geelong waterfront campus, on Wednesday. Tickets are available from Geelong Performing Arts Centre or gpac.org.au.

Nick of time: Muscles, Adalita, Urthboy, Dan Sultan and Bertie Blackman will be among Australian music stars performing their favourite Nick Cave songs in Geelong next week.

A STELLAR line-up of guest artists will all add their unique talents to a tribute to one of Australia’s music greats, Nick Cave, in Geelong next week. Straight to You – Triple J’s Tribute to Nick Cave is part of the youth station’s Ausmusic Month. Artists lining up to join the tribute include Abbe May, Adalita, Sparkadia’s Alex Burnett, Bertie Blackman, Dan Sultan, Bluejuice’s Jake Stone, Children Collide’s Johnny Mackay, Spiderbait’s Kram, Lanie Lane, Lisa Mitchell, Muscles and The Herd’s Urthboy. Lane nominated Jack the Ripper as her favourite Nick Cave song. “It’s such a powerful piece of music. This track really grabs my attention every time I hear it. “The male backing vocals and stabbing guitars are such a great part of the arrangement, along with some very descriptively violent and tormented lyrics.” Spiderbait’s Kram said he could listen to Cave’s Red Right Hand 100 times over without tiring of the song. “It reminds me of a Sergio Leone western mixed with creeping death. Wicked instrumentation, nothing is overused or wasted and his lyrics and vocals are perfect. “Pure drama with a tubular bell as the star and great keyboard solo – everything in this song is awesome.” Muscles admitted the Cave classic Let Love In influenced him lyrically on

THE SECRETS of the deep will be revealed during National Wool Museum’s Summer of Discovery in Geelong. Featuring three exhibitions in one, Wrecks, Reefs and The Mermaid will enable patrons to submerge themselves in summer fun. Museum director Gordon Johnston said the exhibitions offered an in-depth look at awe-inspiring marine specimens and flotsam and jetsam. The exhibition chronicles two archeological expeditions in search of the site of His Majesty’s Colonial Schooner Mermaid, wrecked in 1829. Australian National Maritime Museum organised the expeditions among the remote coral reefs off the coast of Queensland in 2009. A fascinating array of 31 photos includes renowned underwater photographer Xanthe Rivett’s images of the trip, uncovering evidence of the impact of climate change on the Great Barrier Reef. The doughboy scallop and weedy seadragon are just two of the unusual creatures living in Port Phillip Bay. Marine photographer Mary Molloy allows visitors to experience a whole new world as she presents detailed and colorful images of these amazing creatures. The National Wool Museum features a Summer of Discovery Learning Zone where young visitors can play with diving equipment, make a boat from salvage materials and try their luck at keeping their own reef alive. Wrecks Reefs and The Mermaid runs from November 11 to February 12. The museum is open from 9.30am to 5pm on weekdays and 10am to 5pm on weekends at the corner of Moorabool and Brougham Sts. More information is available by phoning 5272 4701 or visiting www.nwm.vic.gov.au.

us Dent has been servicing the Geelong area for the past nine years, offering paintless dent repair as a cost effective way of repairing vehicle dents and dings that have not cracked or chipped paintwork. Geelong’s Aus Dent can get the job done right the first time with no sanding, fillers or expensive paintwork. With award-winning technicians, be assured your car is in good hands. Paintless dent removal leaves vehicles with the original finish, so there’s no mismatched paintwork or repair marks. Paintless dent removal is also faster than conventional body shop methods and most repairs can be finished in a couple of hours. The technique is relatively new to Australia but has been used by European car manufacturers like Mercedes Benz and BMW for more than 20 years. Geelong manager Gary LeGuern says Aus Dent saves time and money. Aus Dent Geelong offers free quotes and a quality guarantee. Aus Dent is at 3/100 Barwon Terrace, South Geelong. Phone 5223 1128 or 0414 638 749 or visit the Aus Dent website at ausdent.com.au.

arwon Tyre Centre staff and friends have returned in one piece from their annual esCarpade fundraiser to help raise money for sick children. The seven-day outback motoring adventure sent staff travelling around 4500km spreading fun and laughter while collecting funds for children’s charity Camp Quality. Owner Graeme McMahon says 74 vehicles participated, raising a grand total of $1.4 million “We returned safely, having experienced only minor mechanical issues along the way – we bent a steering arm,� Graham laughs. “I really want to thank everyone who supported us in our third esCarpade, especially our major sponsor, Winter and Taylor. “We also had heaps of support from many other sponsors and customers who helped our team. “The first year we did it we raised $6500, last year we raised $8500 and this year we hit $18,500.� Graham says customers offered donations for the cause and the team ran various fundraisers. “Laughter is the best medicine and hopefully we spread some cheer along the journey.� Barwon Tyre Centre provides a fast, affordable service to the Geelong region. Graeme has seen a lot of tyres over the years, so he knows how to spot the good from the bad. The Belmont store stocks a wide range of tyres to suit all vehicles big or small. A range of services from minor repairs to full wheel servicing and complete tyre sets are available. Barwon Tyre Centre is at 15 Settlement Rd, Belmont. More information on esCarpade fundraiser or Barwon Tyre Centre is available on 5241 1944.

sport Maggies, Sharks to do or die GEELONG Cricket Club suffered a heavy defeat to Carlton in Warrnambool last weekend and will need to quickly get back to its best against Camberwell this round to stay in touch with the top sides. The Cats sit in ninth place, while the Magpies are one spot below them in 10th after losing last week to Richmond. To be fair to Geelong, the side appears to be in a transitional phase this season, with some fresh talent being injected following the departures of veterans in the past year or two. Still, with the experience of Liam Buchanan, Andre Borovec, Luke Muller and Jeremy Hart, the Cats should still be expected to be competitive against the best. In what will be the first two-day fixture of the season, the Cats will need just one or two of their young players to step up if the older guys perform to the level of which they are capable. Geelong Cricket Association’s first division may only be in the first weekend of November but the round four match between North Geelong and Manifold Heights could almost be classed as an elimination final. Both teams have one win on the board from three

Local Cricket JIM TIMBERLAKE games but a depth of talent that the top few teams in the competition possess, so a loss for either could be fatal. North Geelong has some genuinely good players, with Brad Scown, Sam Hall, Col Millard and Mark Zimmer enjoying success at local level for many years. But for some reason the side has struggled to match it with the stronger teams the past couple of seasons. Manifold Heights, on the other hand, doesn’t look to have the same guns in its arsenal as the Magpies but sits one place higher on the table in ninth. Perhaps this is a golden opportunity for players such as David Dodd to continue his reasonable form

with the bat and stand up to make a big score and help his side claim some valuable points. If no one from the Sharks stands up, North Geelong will win. Selections: Highton v St JOSEPH’S, South Barwon v GROVEDALE, East Belmont v GEELONG WEST, Leopold v LARA, Bell Post Hill v NEWTOWN & CHILWELL. The two gun sides of division two clash this round in a replay of last season’s grand final, with Geelong City hosting St Albans Breakwater in what should be a classic encounter. The Saints sit atop the table with three impressive wins from as many starts, while the Sharks are second following a narrow loss to Murgheboluc last Saturday. As has been the case the past couple of seasons, St Albans Breakwater boasts a quality bowling line-up including Justin Miller, Chris Jones and Michael Cox but their batting still seems to be their Achilles heel. This is a problem City doesn’t have, with an even mix of batters and bowlers including the evergreen Graeme Beaumont who has returned to the teams first XI and showed he still has the class to compete. City will be fired up to gain some small revenge

for last season’s premiership defeat and should go one better. Selections: ALEXANDER THOMSON v St Peter’s, Waurn Ponds v TORQUAY, NEWCOMB DISTRICT v Guild St Mary’s, MURGHEBOLUC v Bell Park, THOMSON v Marshall. In divison three, third placed Modewarre hosts fourth placed Little River in what looks like being a crackerjack game of cricket. With a tight table looming this year, this match will give the winner a serious boost while the loser will find themselves back in the pack and fighting for their survival among a host of clubs looking to sneak into the bottom half of the top six come finals time. Modewarre suffered its first defeat last week at the hands of Teesdale, although Jackson Bolton held up his end of the bargain with a tidy five-wicket haul. Little River enjoyed a solid victory over Lethbridge, thanks mainly to 75 runs from Sam Reidy. Modewarre should have enough aces up its sleeve to record a narrow win. Selections: Corio v TEESDALE, Meredith v INVERLEIGH, CORIO BAY v Shelford, North Shore v WINCHELSEA, Bannockburn v LETHBRIDGE.

Bay harbours action aplenty as snapper season reaches full swing Centimetre perfect: Andrew Dellaca with a 65cm snapper from Clifton Springs.

On the bite BRIAN LONG WITH ideal fishing conditions likely this weekend, anglers should enjoy outstanding action if the past week is any indication. Competitors in the Gary Clarke Fishing Competition will find snapper in the inner and outer harbours on the run up to high tide. Paul Jefferies showed the way in the past week, fishing Wilson Spit to boat his bag limit of big snapper three times on fresh pilchards. Shaun Stevens has also been doing well but on soft plastics out in front of Mountain View Quarries. Shaun has caught plenty of small fish along with reasonable numbers in the 1kg to 3kg bracket. Simon D’Antino and son Ryder have been harassing the snapper off Clifton Springs, finding plenty of fish to 4kg. Again, fresh pilchards have returned the best results. Andrew Dellaca and Charles Swanton nailed fish to over 3kg on plastics in the same location. Norm Osborne fished the nine-foot bank for two ripper snapper over 7kg each. Norm found the fish most active from daylight to 9am, after which he turned his attention to whiting in close to Bird Rock. North Shore rocks hosted few anglers over the past week but those prepared to put in the hours caught snapper, flathead available and some huge pike. Soft plastics have been working a treat, with small, metal, baitfish profile lures best for the pike.

Trevally continued to bite in Queenscliff’s cut. Stuart Tanner tried with sandworms to finish with seven better than 1kg each on the high tide slack water. The same are also produced snapper, salmon and Tommy rough. Black Rock rewarded anglers fishing during the late evenings with both snapper and whiting. Most of the snapper are around 950g, with the whiting a similar size. Snapper and gummy sharks were landed from 13th Beach this past week after dark on squid and salmon fillets.

Pike were also taken from the rocks between the two silos piers. Stingaree Bay’s spoil ground was patchy but anglers fishing the southern edge took good numbers of snapper and whiting. Early morning has been the best time. Garry Jenkins fished the Hermsley spoil grounds, finding plenty of squid. Most were small but the sheer numbers made for fantastic fishing. Portarlington to St Leonards produced any number of whiting captures, with reports suggesting the best fishing was in 3.5m of water on the build-up to high tide.

Sandy conditions made surf fishing difficult at Fairhaven and Eastern View but salmon were taken when the water cleared. Lure was best, with bait anglers struggling to catch a fish. Nearby, Cinema Point was a standout on the salmon, with the deeper water holding quality fish better than 1.5kg. Deep Lake vastly improved over the past week. Most of the fish were small but the numbers of rainbows made for enjoyable angling. Lake Tooliorook also produced plenty of rainbows, with the better fish nudging 1.8kg and most around 900g. Ballarat’s Lake Wendouree is full and producing plenty of small rainbows. As the weather warms fly anglers will be hard pressed to go past this waterway. Lake Bolac again produced top trout fishing, with rainbows in excess of 3kg taken by a variety of methods. Trolling Tassie Devils has been successful, while shore-based anglers have found Powerbait or local smelt best. West Barwon Reservoir was the week’s surprise packet, returning rainbows of around 1kg in good numbers from the left hand arm. Lure was the go, with SX40s best. Carp were readily available from the Barwon River at Queen’s Park on corn or bread baits, with some fish close to 5kg. Kids continued catching rainbow trout from North Geelong’s Seagull Lake. Powerbait accounted for most of the fish, with plenty of activity through the middle of the day. Snapper should be the target fish for this weekend, with the quarries, Wilson Spit, Clifton Springs or the nine-foot bank ideal. Fresh pilchards should be used for bait, while the best time should be from 7pm to 11pm. Send reports and photos to info@raylongtackle.com.au or visit Brian at Ray Long’s Fishing World, 105 Shannon Avenue, Manifold Heights.
