‘Healthy boost’ for city services

Bedside manner: Health minister Daniel Andrews meets patient Pauline Stewart at Geelong Hospital on Wednesday. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 50215

BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG Hospital will increase elective surgery after two new theatres open next month, according to Health Minister Daniel Andrews. Mr Andrews visited the hospital on Wednesday to announce Barwon Health would receive $33.6 million to help cater for a “growing and ageing population in Geelong”. The extra funding was focussed on improving the emergency service and intensive care wards while freeing up beds for elective surgery, he said. The hospital’s annual funding was “151 per cent” up on last year, providing Barwon Health with an additional $22.5 million for one of its biggest increases on record. Mr Andrews said the Government would reveal additional funding after the new theatres and beds opened. “We want to grow the size of Barwon Health,” he said. “We know that the region is growing and ageing, therefore we must support Barwon Health to cover that. Mr Andrews said the funding increase would pay for land to build a new hospital in Geelong’s Armstrong Creek urban growth area. The Government was still in negotiations with land owners to determine a precise location for the hospital and the price of the site, he said, The Government also announced a $4 million expansion of Geelong’s mental health facility on Wednesday. Mental Health Minister Lisa Neville said the boost would provide support for 160 additional patients a year at the Barwon Health centre.

EXCLUSIVE WHOLESALE PRICES FOR BUILDERS AND DEVELOPERS

BY ERIN PEARSON A REVIEW of Ambulance Victoria has won the backing of both sides of politics in Geelong after reports of faulty equipment and staff shortages hampering services in the region. Labor state Member for Geelong Ian Trezise said he would always “welcome improvements” in local ambulance services. But he defended the Government’s performance on boosting ambulance services in the city. “I have worked to increase the number of paramedics in the Geelong area and we have seen this recently with the addition of extra paramedics to ensure we do see a great ambulance service for

all in Geelong,” he said. “Last week State Government announced a $56 million rural and regional ambulance package that will deliver 297 additional paramedics across the State, with 234 paramedics to be on the road in the first year. For the Barwon south-west region, this boost will deliver 41 additional paramedics. “The Government works closely with Ambulance Victoria to continually improve services across Victoria including in Geelong” Victorian Nationals Party leader Peter Ryan requested the audit earlier this month after claiming a 2008 merger of the state’s rural and metropolitan ambulance services had led to a series of problems.

Liberal candidate for Geelong Alastair Thomson called for the review to “highlight the inadequacies in the Geelong area” where paramedics were “overworked and under-resourced”. “The paramedics all do a fantastic job in the community and there are not many people who haven’t been touched by there services (but) we know there are problems,” he said. Earlier this month the Independent revealed faulty technology was leaving paramedics lost in the field. Liberal MLC Jan Kronberg told the state’s Upper House ambulance dispatchers were losing track of ambulances due to the fault with “status buttons” meant to enable ambulance tracking.

BY ERIN PEARSON COMMONWEALTH bank customers have lost thousands of dollars after “skimming thieves” targeted a Newcomb ATM. Bank spokeswoman Nichole Ismay said the thieves had targeted Bellarine Village Shopping Centre’s CBA ATM over the past month. Ms Ismay said the bank had not found a skimming device. Customers who lost money were eligible for refunds, she said. “The thefts were discovered through monitoring cards at the

ATM as well as reports from customers to the bank. We believe it was only at that ATM where the thefts occurred,” Ms Ismay said. “For customers who have been affected they can contact their bank and they’ll be refunded within five days of reporting the incident. “Skimming has been an issue but it doesn’t just affect Commonwealth Bank - it affects all banks, so it’s an issue for the industry.” Skimming thieves fit hidden devices at ATMS to obtain copies of customers’ account

details when they use credit or debit cards. The thieves then clone cards to withdraw money. Ms Ismay said any card used at the ATM was at risk. The bank was contacting customers via SMS or mail, she said. Commonwealth would also contact customers of other banks who used cards at the Newcomb ATM. Ms Ismay said a police investigation was underway. Victoria and Geelong Police said they were unaware of the thefts linked to the Newcomb ATM.

Business support attracts children’s protectors to city

POLICE are investigating a woman’s claims three men dragged her from her car before indecently assaulting her at the entrance to Barwon Valley Golf Course. Police said the 47-year-old woman alleged the unknown men aged in their late teens or early 20s attacked her as she sat alone in her car at 2.30am on June 28.

Ferry doubt A “RELATIVELY low” number of commuters have expressed interest in using a proposed ferry service between Portarlington and Melbourne, according to State Government. Environment and Climate Change Minister Gavin Jennings, who released a long-awaited report on a survey into the proposed service’s potential patronage, said about 400 commuters “may” use the ferry on weekdays.

Peace mayor GEELONG councillors have signed their mayor up to an international organisation seeking to rid the world of nuclear weapons. Mayor John Mitchell said the decision to join Mayors for Peace demonstrated that council was “stepping onto the international stage of a peaceful world free from weapons of mass destruction”.

Residents ‘duped’ on Grovedale link route BY KIM WATERS ANGRY Grovedale residents fear authorities deliberately kept them in the dark on plans for a six-lane bypass link next to their homes, councillors heard this week. South Grovedale residents told this week’s council meeting a community consultation process for the plan failed to adequately warn them how close the 4.5-kilometre road would be to their homes. Phil Cranny said many residents had missed the consultation process informing residents about the bypass link to Surf Coast Highway. “Don’t you think we would have kicked up a stink ages ago if we had heard about it,” Mr Cranny said. “I would have been happy to do this in 2006...but we didn’t know.” South Grovedale Community Action Group spokesperson Margarita Kumnick told the meeting information sent to residents had failed to mention the 4C bypass link.

Assault probe

“It mentioned the larger Armstrong Creek development but did not mention by name the road that we were worried about,” Ms Kumnick said. “The letter we received was about Armstrong Creek and the majority of people who didn’t want to buy or invest in the area would have just chucked it in the bin.” Ms Kumnick showed councillors a map attached to the Armstrong Creek letter. She pointed out a small, dotted line representing the 4C road. “The majority of people who had looked at this would have missed this line,” she said. “It’s tiny.” Mayor John Mitchell said council had followed a “legal process” in advertising plans for the road, which formed part of the Armstrong Creek development. Cr Mitchell said the route was advertised for more than six months between 2006 and 2007. Councillors voted unanimously to

Engagement: Andy Richards. request Vicroads extend the consultation period. Cr Andy Richards said council would also run a “community engagement strategy” with information sessions on 4C. Council would table a report at its next meeting on the process for identi-

fying the 4C route and associated community consultation, Cr Richards said. Cr Jan Farrell was pessimistic about the potential for a resolution. “Vicroads doesn’t necessarily take on the residents’ views,” she said. “I’m not going to sit here and pretend this is a solution because it’s not.” Residents in the gallery were outraged when council officers told them Vicroads might only extend the consultation period for another three weeks. “Three weeks is a disgrace - we need more like six months,” a man yelled. The Independent last month revealed community opposition to the bypass link, with residents fearing additional noise and traffic would devalue their properties. They wanted the route change to align further south with Boundary Road.

Violence push GEELONG unionists have launched a campaign for employers to give female staff paid leave for dealing with domestic violence. Geelong Trades Hall Women Unionists Network’s Christine Couzens said the “practical” initiative would allow women to avoid using sick or annual leave to cope with the fallout of domestic violence, such as dealing with solicitors and support agencies.

Road charge GEELONG’S council will charge land owners to build a road for development of an industrial precinct to cash in on the city’s bypass. Councillors voted this week in favour of a special charge scheme to pay for a 400-metre link between Bacchus Marsh and McManus roads at Lara to improve access for existing businesses and encourage their expansion plans.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A SPONTANEOUS groundswell of support has established a Geelong chapter of an organisation fighting child sexual assault. Bravehearts set up shop in the city after founder Hetty Johnson addressed a Geelong Business Club meeting. “As a Geelong-born girl it makes me so proud to know that my home town cares so deeply about its children,” Ms Johnson said. “Never before in my 14 years of public speaking have I ever received such a warm and motivated response to our call to protect children.” Ms Johnson said Bravehearts Geelong would bring prevention and early intervention programs to the region. “I’m bristling with excitement for the children and families of Geelong and brimming with admiration, appreciation and pride in the business community of Geelong who have so eagerly embraced the need to keep their children safe. “Many thousands of your children will benefit from this amazing support. Take a bow Geelong.” Incorporated in 1997, Bravehearts has forged a movement for change in how government, the judiciary and the wider community deal with child sexual assault. Bravehearts works in specialist therapy, support, education and legislative reform. Ms Johnson said Child Protection Council statistics showed 95 per cent of child sexual assault victims knew their attackers. Only 10 per cent of offenders came to the attention of police and just one per cent were jailed, she said. Former Grace McKellar manager

Council transparency concerns

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN LAND USE and economic development are priorities for the new boss of the region’s strategic planning body. And Elaine Carbines said G21 would oppose a State Government takeover of planning for the region. Ms Carbines has taken over as chief executive officer of G21 from Andrew Scott. The alliance organisation works on planning the future of the region with funding from its five councils. Ms Carbines, a former Labor MP, said strategic planning was the key to the region’s sustainable development. “We’re doing a regional land use plan across all five municipalities which will earmark future residential, commercial, industrial and recreational development,” she said. G21 had received state funding to produce an economic development in conjunction with the land use plan. “State Government should have confidence in G21 and the Geelong region, that it is mature enough to follow due process,” Ms Carbines said. “No where else in Victoria is regional planning done to this degree and even around Australia we’re regarded as being ahead on planning and regional strategy.” Ms Carbines said G21 has also identified redevelopment of Geelong’s cultural precinct, including the city’s library, performing arts centre and gallery, as a priority project. The region’s residence had developed a heightened awareness of their right to have their say on future development of the region, she said. “Sometimes there has been a vacuum of information between the proponent (of development) and those affected. A vacuum will be filled by something and it’s not necessarily helpful,” Ms Carbine said. “Misinformation and fear can build up but the element of community fear has to be worked through. “I’m a strong believer in facts and consultation.”

that we would have to come back to council just to attend a lunch,” Cr Macdonald said. But Cr Bruce Harwood backed the limit, saying it was “more than generous”. He believed that a $3000 annual limit for attending conferences, seminars and meetings was also acceptable. “It does keep us vigilant of our duties in relation to the cost of rate-payers expenses - it’s there to support and protect us.” The draft policy set out limits for various claims ranging from office expenses to taxis and taking spouses to public events. City Hall releases to the media on request a summary of expenses covering set items including allowances, car travel, flights and phones. The summary has previously failed to include items such as the rail passes. Councillors voted to defer their vote on the new policy.

New chief plans a brighter future

“It’s not equitable for all councillors,” Cr Farrell said. “If we’re to have an expenses policy…it needs to be transparent.” Cr Andy Richards said after the council debate on the draft that he had “faith” City Hall staff would come up with a policy “that works”. “Given that councillors voted to defer the policy last night unanimously, I’d say we have more work to do as a council,” Cr Andy Richards said. “Whether it’s by car or by a public transport allowance, I’m sure we’ll come up with a reasonable policy.” The Expenses and Facilities policy also came under fire from councillor Rod MacDonald who criticised the expenses policy, calling for the removal of a $1000 limit on payments to cover attendance at local functions. “I see it as probably ridiculous

BY KIM WATERS GEELONG councillors are claiming “unreported” expenses, a council meeting heard this week. Councillor Jan Farrell also accused unnamed colleagues of keeping their hidden expenses “quiet”. She said council’s draft 2010 councillor expenses policy threatened to give “ourselves and the community” a false sense of security about the transparency of expense claims. “It needs to cover all the things that are happening in the background quietly – the things that aren’t reported,” Cr Farrell said. “This policy is not about transparent reporting.” Cr Farrell raised a $1200, sixmonth rail pass given to councillors Andy Richards and John Doull as an example of a “hidden” expense that failed to rate a mention in the draft policy.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN DEPUTY Prime Minister and Treasurer Wayne Swan enjoyed Geelong’s waterfront on a crisp, clear day for a Labor party fundraiser this week. Mr Swan was in a relaxed but unexpansive mood when he hit town with Finance Minister Lindsay Tanner for a $1300-a-head lunch at Le Parisien restaurant. Despite the new leadership, Mr Swan deflected most questions on Geelong issues to instead speak about the Federal Government’s stimulus package. When asked about the impact of recently projected population growth for the

region, Mr Swan agreed infrastructure was a key challenge. “You do need to be ahead of the game on infrastructure.” But Mr Swan was quick to point out the Government’s record with Geelong Innovation Fund, established after a series of job cuts in the city’s manufacturing sector. “We’ve invested in the future of the Geelong region. We have provided a pipeline of activity,” he said. “Regions like Geelong can be rocked by something like the global financial crisis. “We’ve introduced the national health reforms and the education revolution, all with local impact.”

Rezoning push in battle for golf site BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN THREE councillors will seek an investigation into rezoning 22 hectares at North Geelong north for a nine-hole golf course, a public meeting has heard. The rezoning would retain a proposed course now under doubt after the owner of the former Geelong Golf Club site, Links Investco, changed its plans to redevelop the land. Monday’s joint ward public meeting voted to request council investigate rezoning the land for public use. A second successful motion requested Links Investco to stick with a 2006 planning

scheme amendment and associated Section 173 agreement requiring retention of the golf course. The meeting also requested council write to Premier John Brumby and Planning Minister Justin Madden asking them to reject a Woolworths application for a bulk retail development on part of the golf club site. Mr Madden called in the Woolworths application and appointed an advisory committee to hear submissions on the plan. The Committee is currently preparing its report. Councillors Eddy Kontelj, Stretch Kontelj and Barbara

Abley called Monday’s meeting. Councillors fear approval of the Woolworths application could jeopardise an earlier agreement between council and Links to develop the nine-hole course and turn it over to council if it was unviable. Cr Stretch Kontelj said councillors were frustrated that council had lost planning control over the site. “We’re left to clean up the mess afterward,” he said. “The developer wants to revisit the proposal and walk away from the section 173 legal agreement. There is no reason for the minister to grant the

developer its current application. “If that happens, it will bring to an end the section 173 agreement because there will not be enough land left for the ninehole course.” Member for Geelong Ian Trezise, who attended the meeting, said the section 173 was “made in good faith”, so all parties should honour the agreement. Geelong Environment Council president Joan Lindros told the meeting she was outraged Mr Madden had seized planning control. “It’s a major issue and we will remember what he has done.”

MATES stand back licking their lips while watching him at work. But a measured Dan Cunningham takes a sober approach to brewing the perfect beer. In fact, while others were pouring themselves a few frothies or heading down the pub, Dan was concerning himself with pouring thousands of dollars into a brewery to create his own label. This was when a knockabout bloke mucking around with a home brew kit inside a Barwon Heads’ garage turned into a minor beer baron. Named after a popular nearby surf break where Dan and his mates encounter a different kind of froth, his Beacon Bitter and Pale Ale are now on the end of many local drinkers’ tongues. As a career brewer, Dan knows he’s living the dream of many red-blooded Aussie males. “It’s either a dream or a nightmare at times – I don’t know which yet,” he slowly observes. “But it’s still heaps of fun.” Beer was on Dan’s consciousness for years before he began sifting through yeast, hops and malt extracts at home. It was not quite the days of the six o’clock swill but spending quality time with dad took a different twist back then. “My old man used to come to town every Friday, have a few beers and sit me on the counter – with a lemonade, of course,” the 36-year-old tells. “When I was younger beer was all about quantity rather than quality that’s certainly changed a lot these days.”

Cheers: Dan Cunningham tests his latest drop. Picture: Tommy Ritchie Dan certainly isn’t a beer-guzzling slob stuck on a bar stool. He skipped typical ambitions of becoming a publican for visiting some of Europe’s finest breweries at age 21. Germany, Holland, Czech Republic, Ireland were all on his itinerary but an appreciation for Britain’s traditional real ale taste in the Old Dart was the start of things to come. “I got exposed to more than just VB,” Dan grins. “When I got home I had a bit more of a look around these micro-breweries that were just popping up in the 1990s. “People are starting to realise that beers aren’t something you have to slam down freezing cold.” The real impetus for Dan’s brewery only came years later when a bad day working for the man forced his hand. Instead of the usual home-brewery education from reading instructions

on the back of a supermarket brew kit, Dan elected to take the high-brow course at university to understand the science behind the bubbles of beer. When Geelong’s famous Scottish Chiefs pub changed hands, Dan was quick to take up a lease on its brewery and get serious. “Over the past few years I’ve got to know most people in the brewing industry and they’re pretty happy to invite you in, show you around and answer your silly questions,” he says. Less than a year into the dream business, Dan is now eyeing a prime parcel of real estate in his home town to start a first-ever “beer cafe” with a brewery on show. And there appears no shortage of customers lining up beyond his niggly mates. “People are starting to recognise me around town,” Dan notes. “You always get the odd one who asks for free samples, too.”

BY KIM WATERS PLANS to build a weir will leave an Otways creek as little more than a “trickle”, according to a Greens MP. State Upper House member Greg Barber slammed the plan to divert 700 million litres a year from Dewings Creek to Geelong’s water supply. Mr Barber said the weir would take up to half the river’s annual flow. Barwon Water could legally divert almost all the creek’s water, he said. “They only have to legally leave one million litres per day flowing through the creek, which, let me tell you, is just a trickle at your feet,” Mr Barber said. “The rivers that flow into and through Geelong are some of the most stressed in the state, particularly at the end of a 13-year drought. “Barwon Water is just reaching out further and further to tap new surfaces with no concern for the environmental impact.” The Independent revealed last month that Barwon Water planned to reinstate a 50-year-old diversion weir on the creek to boost the region’s drinking supply. Barwon Water’s Paul Northey said the concrete weir would divert water to Wurdee Boluc Reservoir during “high rainfall events”. Liberal candidate for South Barwon Andrew Katos labelled the plan “hypocritical” after the Labor State Government criticised him for suggesting a similar Otways project. Labor Member for South Barwon and parliamentary secretary for water and environment Michael Crutchfield defended the weir as a way to help secure the region’s water supply.

The Independent, Friday July 16, 2010

letters Route of all evil MEMBER for South Barwon Michael Crutchfield declined to attend a recent Grovedale community meeting on the east-west stage 4C bypass link to explain why it could not run along Boundary Road. Councillor Andy Richards attended but would not discuss an alternative route, insisting council’s proposal for a six-lane freeway carrying an estimated 17,000 cars a day straight through a residential area was best. This ludicrous plan would have a negative impact on the lives of thousands of people, disrupting established communities and devaluing hundreds of homes. The Armstrong Creek planning committee, of which Cr Richards is a member, proposed this ridiculous freeway with the backing of Mr Crutchfield. Together they have shown zero consideration for home owners and did not consult the community. Instead, they appear to have pandered to property developers who don’t want the road passing through or close to yet-to-be-established Armstrong Creek housing developments. With the conspicuous absence of Mr Crutchfield at the meeting, his Labor colleague, Cr Richards, was left to speak, maintaining there was no issue and refusing to concede there had been no consultation with residents or that the common sense route would be along already-established Boundary Road. The consensus of all in attendance, except for Cr Richards, was that the alternative Boundary Road route was a better option and would not disrupt the communities of Waurn Ponds, Grovedale and Marshall. Boundary Road is also shorter, less costly and a more-direct route to Torquay and Barwon Heads. Kent Fuller Grovedale

Labor’s road ragers TO SEETHING Grovedale residents I say welcome to the real world of Labor politics. There is no consultation anywhere, any time or with anyone except a chosen few to help Labor’s agenda. Labor wants the road, so you’ll have the road! This is government for State Government. Just look at the waste of money on things like Myki, the smart meters and Planning Minister Justin Madden’s takeover of planning in Geelong. MP Michael Crutchfield’s rant against residents at Torquay over the secondary school (Independent, June 25) is just another chapter in this shabby Labor Government’s non-consultation. Just look at the misery caused by wind farms’ devastating impact on communities and geothermal power that is so dangerous South Australia’s geothermal plant at Innamincka blew up and had to be capped by experts brought in from the US. The Government wants to put 12 of these plants in a thriving community at Gherang and - surprise residents were never consulted. Come on, Energy and Resources Minister Peter Batchelor, if wind farms and geothermal power stations are so good, put them in your own neighbourhood. Come on, Mr Batchelor, lead by example.

Come on, Premier John Brumby, I expect to see them on your own farm at Bendigo. Come on, Mr Brumby, lead by example. Residents of south Grovedale should do what Labor party hero Gough Whitlam said - maintain the rage - and vote this arrogant, non-consulting Government out of office. Marlene Hart Gherang

Idea branches out GEELONG community organisation Commonbonds commends John Wilson’s June 2 letter to the editor of the Independent about Geelong’s plan to plant 20,000 trees over 10 years. Why are we still persisting with tree felling and logging when the whole world has caught up with the fact that, by attracting rain, forests are essential to our very survival? The former golf club site in North Geelong is a wonderful opportunity to begin the landscaping of Geelong. It is scientifically true that trees filter dust and toxic chemicals and the Corio and North Geelong area has suffered from the highest rate of asthma, allergies, ADHD and autism in the state. We would add that 20,000 trees is a match for the population of Geelong and surrounds, so we suggest City of Greater Geelong should give vouchers for people to buy certified trees for approved areas so residents can have the pleasure of planting and nurturing them through their initial stages of growth. Beautifying streets and footpaths would be a great place to start. Pam Edwards Commonbonds

Water plant spin A COMMUNITY conference on the proposed Northern Water Plant, called by the EPA, was recently held at Norlane and will reconvened midAugust to hear answers from Barwon Water to questions raised and submissions received. This well-matured and much-overpriced environmental project is to be shoe-horned into Geelong Port with $90 million of funding, although no costings have been given, but the recycled water it will supply will go only to Shell and Stead Park. General industry and community re-use has not been included. What is worse and in spite of best efforts, cooling of the refinery will still continue using 300 megalitres of seawater a day taken from Corio Bay. This is not an example of the declared EPA principle of “maximum benefit at minimum cost” - it represents a collection of spin and public relations statements. The debate continues about storing sewage, treated or untreated, at the site to serve as a “retarding basin” for the northern sewer system. The selection of process and the design is many months late. Barwon Water, as a public authority, must make its pilot plant test results and project background studies available but refuses to do so.

letters Bet on shire blowout CAN SURF Coast Shire be trusted? In 2007 the shire’s strategic resource plan stated that: • Council rates would rise by five per cent for at least three years. This has never been honoured or achieved; • Council rate revenue would be $28 million in 2010. Now it’s $33 million - a windfall of $5 million a year on council’s own forward estimates, so why the debt blow out?; • Council debt would peak at $11.5 million in 2010 and be 29 per cent of State Government’s prudential borrowing limit for councils of 60 per cent of rate revenue. Council now claims debt will be $18.5 million and within four per cent of the prudential limit. City of Greater Geelong is almost nine Ron Humphrey times the size of Surf Coast Shire yet Surf Coast has almost half as much debt. So why is this a concern? Well, council’s project management of the construction of a toilet block in Torquay’s Gilbert Street was budgeted at $250,000 but the facility eventually cost $400,000 - an alarming blow out by any standards and now the toilet block requires major remedial works. What assurance does the community have that the new shire offices won’t blow out? The community won’t know because, although contracts have been signed, we have been kept in the dark and have not seen the final, endorsed plans or the proposed costing. Will the shire exceed its forecast debt levels of 56 per cent? History tells us we can bet on it. Ron Humphrey Torquay

Rowing a good sport BARWON Rowing Club is an integral and proud member of the Victorian rowing community, with a rich and long tradition dating back to the late 1800s. The club is seeking government funds to rebuild its boathouse in order to position itself within the community as a vibrant centre for not just rowing

but healthy community activities on a broader scale. Rowing Australia is accelerating its national drive to push funding into supporting community rowing clubs. Under the Federal Government’s Pathways to Success position paper, infrastructure projects and forging linkages with those keen to develop healthy activity will assume a high priority. Whether the program is focused around a school rower, elite Olympians or masters and recreational fun, the drive toward a healthier lifestyle through sport is clear. Barwon Rowing Club’s bid to re-build is ideally positioned as a perfect example of this aim within Victoria. Rowing Australia wholeheartedly supports Barwon Rowing Club’s rebuilding initiative - and hopes it will enable the community to better see rowing as a means to a healthier lifestyle. Matt Draper Rowing Australia national development and events director

MPs ignore rowers I HAVE been a member of Barwon Rowing Club for 12 years. The club took in four inexperienced rowers from Kardinia International College in 2004 and gave us boats, coaches and an amazing time. Our crew rowed together over four years and competed in many regattas, including Head of the Schoolgirls. Two of us still remain with the club. The club just doesn’t teach people to row; it is an inter-generational social network. The club’s mentoring teaches dedication and hard work in the context of a fun, supportive environment. Barwon Rowing Club took me, as a 14-year-old, sport-resistant person and turned me into a passionate rower who hopes to pursue the sport as a lifelong hobby. The club provides some of the essentials of life, such as an engaging social network and education for a healthy approach to living through exercise. However, unless local members of parliament show more action on helping the rebuilding of the club’s shed, I am concerned this opportunity won’t be made available to the next generation of teenagers and the cycle of a lack of interest in sport among many young people will be continued.

BABBA still living in the ‘70s BY ERIN PEARSON MANY cover bands take music lovers back to the catchy music and stellar costumes of the ’70s, leaving younger audiences to imagine what it was like living back then day after day. They should ask the BABBA quartet for a description. The tribute group has travelled around the globe playing the hit songs from Swedish pop group ABBA and spending night after night caught up in the ‘70s rush. A self-confessed Billy Joel diehard fan, Michael Ingvarson takes on the persona of Benny three nights a week. He told the Independent his job was “the best in the world”. “Being Benny, it’s great fun,” Ingvarson said. “At times it’s kind of surreal but when I’m on stage it becomes real and I realise that he is such a great performer and talented songwriter.” Only a young boy when ABBA mania hit the world, Ingvarson said he still remembered when the craze for the band “took over”. “I was about seven in 1977 but I remember the reaction,” he said. “Kids had stickers all over their school bags and the songs were all over Countdown.” The BABBA foursome stumbled across each other by luck when two of their number enrolled in the same Melbourne University music course and came across the remaining members seeking work in the music industry.

“The original girls had performed in a battle of the bands competition together at the Royal Darby Hotel and the pub’s owner offered thems a regular job as an ABBA thing,” Ingvarson said. “Not long after I joined along with Hey, Hey it’s Saturday’s Kim May as our bass player and it just progressed from there.” The group prepared for its debut with little understanding or expectation of the fanfare to follow. “We played our first gig to see what would happen and 450 people turned up,” he said. “We realised something good was going on here.” Fifteen years later, the group still travels the globe covering the song’s of one of the world’s greatest pop bands. Ingvarson described the BABBA show as “contagious”, with all the right costumes, music and dance moves. “It’s a real trip down memory lane for everyone who experienced ABBA the first time round and we’re booked a year and a half ahead,” he said. The self-described song-writer has three children to original BABBA member Frida. BABBA will visit the Geelong region to play at Batesford’s Dog Rocks Hotel on July 17 and Breakwater’s Buckley’s on August 7.

delicious meals. The shows feature The Delltones for $38 or with dinner as well for $65 on August 12. “These guys are great entertainers,” Julia says. The Delltones have entertained audiences for years in their bright pink suits with the motto of ‘Keep raging and stop the ageing’. The legendary outfit has played rock and roll around Australia for over 50 years, so the members know plenty about what it takes to put on a memorable concert. Their promoters say audiences still “scream, shout and go away singing the songs, dancing the steps, chanting the goofy chants”. The enthusiastic band’s creamy harmonies feature the booming bass tones of legendary Ian ‘Peewee’ Wilson, also known as the Beanpole of Bop. The Sphinx also invites patrons to enjoy the dulcet tones of the UK’s Charlie Landsborough on July 24. Geelong’s own Dennis Walter will perform during a Sunday lunch on October 10. The Sphinx advises patrons to book now to avoid disappointment. For more information on shows and dinner packages phone the Sphinx on 5278 2911.

he saying the kitchen is the heart of the home rings true for patrons of Dog Rocks Hotel when immersed in the venue’s atmosphere of homely nostalgia. The hotel’s kitchen has at its core sometimes-forgotten principles, such as preparing all food fresh on the premises using quality ingredients to create dishes that are all about flavour. Head chef Sam Clifton is excited about the hotel’s upcoming Pudding Club on August 22. “This event is unique,” Sam explains.

he number-one reason diets fail long-term is a lack of long-term compliance or the inability to stick to a diet. The vast majority of people who lose weight will regain it and often exceed what they lost. Diets that follow the concept of “burning” more kilojoules than you consume will cause you to lose weight. They all work as a quick fix or they wouldn’t be in the marketplace. But what about permanent weight loss? A diet is a short-term strategy to lose weight. Permanent weight loss results from alteration in lifestyle and eating behaviour. I don’t like the term diet because to me it represents a short-term attempt to lose weight as compared to a change in lifestyle leading to permanent weight loss. Diets that offer weight loss by drinking their product or eating their bars or pre-made meals will not achieve permanent weight loss. They fail the can-I-eat-that-way-for-the-rest-of-my-life test. The nutritional plan you pick to lose weight must be part of a lifestyle change you will be able to follow forever. If it’s not a way of eating you can comply with indefinitely, even after you reach your target weight, then it’s worthless for permanent weight loss. Going from “their” way of eating back to “your” way of eating after you reach your target weight is a recipe for disaster and the cause of the well-established yo-yo syndrome. There are no shortcuts, there is no free lunch and only a commitment to a lifestyle change is going to give you permanent weight loss. I realise that’s not what most people want to hear but it’s the truth, like it or not. The Weight Works is concerned with lifelong weight management, not quick fix weight loss.

Getting that time back on side

FIT AND HEALTHY WITH SAM JONES When it comes to exercise and the time it takes to make a difference, we often won’t do anything at all because we think that if we don’t work out for an hour there is no point and we don’t have the time for that. Exercise should be convenient,

it should fit into your life, you should enjoy it even though you may never love it and there are so many options out there that will allow you to get that elusive time on your side again to do what needs to be done. Don’t just give up because you only have time for a short walk or to do half your program at the gym. After all, anything is always better than nothing. • Samantha Jones is from Contours East Geelong (Newcomb) and Contours Geelong West (Manifold Heights).

The hair removal experts G

eelong Hair Removal’s Maggie Boucher and Helen Hochreiter are experts in removing unwanted hair and have accumulated 40 years experience in the industry. They specialise solely in hair removal to guarantee clients the highest possible standard of service. Permanent hair removal using the electrolysis method is used to treat white, red and grey hairs that are not suitable for laser treatment. The Lightsheer diode laser system is specifically for permanent hair reduction and can achieve superior results in fewer treatments than other available systems. Laser hair removal is ideal for large areas and dark-coloured hair because it is time and cost-effective. Treatment programs are designed specifically for each individual client depending on hair colour, skin type and growth cycle. Unwanted hair is removed from all areas of the body for men and women. Treatment of women with hormonal problems such as polycystic ovarian syndrome or menopausal facial growth has achieved excellent results. A free initial consultation and test patch are available, usually taking 15 to 30 minutes before commencing treatments. Maggie and Helen complete their treatments with an excellent follow-up service.

he song does not sound right! You probably know how the song goes: “Ti-i-iiime is on my side, yes it is”. What? Who really has time on their side? In fact, sometimes time even seems to be the mortal enemy! The person who wrote that song obviously does not live on the same planet as you and I. Every day we do things in a lastditch effort to save a little time. We can even buy precooked rice to save ourselves five minutes. However, we still just don’t have the time to exercise as much as we should.

ow is the time to invest in good quality window protection before the summer rays return, according to TintMaster’s Dave Kershaw. The Five Star Energy Efficiency program for houses in Victoria concentrates on insulating the building to keep heat in the house in winter but the rating scheme omits the most important factor for summer the sun’s radiant energy. The sun’s rays travel straight through glass including doubleglazing. This results in the largest heat gain for the house in summer. One way home owners can moderate this is to shut blinds and curtains, which delays the sun’s effects but darkens rooms and blocks vision outside. Another option is to install external blinds to shade the windows but Dave says these are expensive, spoil views and are easily damaged by the weather. This is where TintMaster comes in. TintMaster’s new Ultra Solar Control window film, applied to the interior of the glass, blocks the ultra-violet energy and most of the

Nissan crosses over into Dualis use BY ERIC BLAIR issan has long been one of the major players in the Australian 4WD/SUV scene with a total of five vehicles in its range. The smallest of these is the Dualis, which was first shown as a concept car at the 2004 Geneva Motor Show and has been on sale locally since late in 2007 with a new, Series II, model arriving in May this year. The range was expanded in mid-2009 with the addition of a 2WD variant, called the Dualis Hatch. A further addition – a longwheelbase seven-seat version called Dualis+2 – is due later this month. The Dualis Series II changes, which apply to both two and fourwheel drive models, are substantial, with every visible body component forward of the windscreen new. The Dualis’ revised bonnet shape not only gives it a bolder look but, working with other changes, also helps improve the aerodynamics. Inside, the visual changes are minor, chiefly a revision to the instruments and the LCD display screen for the trip computer.

Red cross: Nissan Dualis is a cross between a 4WD and a hatchback.

The in-cabin ambient lighting has been given a softer look and has been extended to illuminate the front footwells. Nissan assures us this will give occupants a warmer feeling upon entering the car at night. The invisible change to the interior of the Nissan Dualis is the use of a new “acoustic” windscreen that helps dampen sounds and vibrations outside the vehicle. Ride comfort in the Dualis is pretty well sorted out, although the suspension is firm in the European manner to give good handling. Dualis is almost car-like in the way it reacts and feels, though you do sense it has higher centre of gravity than a passenger car. Dualis features good interior space in all seats and a reasonably large, practically-shaped rear load area. The rear seats have a 60/40 split and the luggage area is good for a vehicle of this type. Power comes from the same 2.0-litre engine as is used in the 4WD, 102kW and 198Nm. A turbo-diesel engine may be imported in the future but Nissan Australia is still not convinced that Australian buyers are looking for that engine in this Japanese car class.

ost motor cars from the late 1980s depend on sophisticated computers and electronics to control the operation of the engine and transmission. To effectively diagnose and repair a motor vehicle, professional workshops require expensive electronic scanners and diagnostic equipment to help them trace and diagnose vehicle operating problems. Graeme and Richard Bye at North Geelong’s Fluidrive Automatic Transmissions make sure their workshop has the latest diagnostic equipment to pinpoint any problems caused by faulty electronics. By using this expensive equipment, they are able to save hours of diagnostic time thereby saving customers money that would otherwise have been spent on time to manually identify the problem. Graeme says that, to do the job correctly, a modern workshop needs to invest in the training and equipment and keep abreast of all the technical information on all transmissions. Fluidrive Geelong has specialised in automatic transmissions for more than 30 years and prides themselves on providing customers with the best job, using quality parts, at a competitive price. Richard says in all his years in the automatic transmission business, one of the biggest problems he has found is customers don't realise that, particularly as the transmission gets older, it requires regular servicing to help prolong the life of the transmission Additionally, having a regular service ensures any leaks or problems are detected and can be fixed before they develop into major breakdowns Fluidrive recommends the transmission be serviced at least every 12 months or 20,000km. A regular service is even more critical if the vehicle is driven in a lot of stop/start (peak hour) traffic, does a lot of short trips or is used for towing. Fluidrive Automatic Transmissions is at 384A Thompson Road, North Geelong. Phone 5278 2681.

ary Keleman has an extensive knowledge of all types of servicing and repairs to Mazdas, including engine rebuilds, clutch and brake repairs and air-conditioning regassing. For the past 33 years he has been servicing Mazdas in Geelong. Gary says a question customers often ask is “will we lose our warranty if we don’t have our car serviced by the dealer?”. In Mazda service books under “Owner Responsibility” is the following statement: “You must retain evidence that proper maintenance has been performed on you Mazda vehicle which an authorised Mazda dealer or other service provider should certify in this warranty information booklet by its stamp and its signature”. “This means if you’re unhappy with your service centre, you can take your car to a service centre of your choice,” Gary says. But it’s crucial that genuine parts and correct oils are used, he says. “It’s also important that you service your vehicle on time regardless of mileage.” So Gary says the answer to the question is “yes”. “Yes, Keleman Motors can service your vehicle. “Yes, you will keep your warranty. “Yes, Keleman Motors uses genuine parts and the best oils. “Yes, it has the latest electronic equipment. “Yes, Keleman Motors services all makes and models of cars. “Yes, Keleman Motors will save you money.” For more information or to make a booking, phone Keleman Motors on 5229 9555 or visit 3/13 Crown Street, South Geelong.

DIPLOMAS/ADVANCED DIPLOMAS & CERTIFICATE COURSES:

On the bite AFTER weeks of heavy groundswells pounding the region’s surf beaches everything changed last weekend when fine settled weather fired up the salmon all along the coast. No area was better than Fairhaven where huge numbers of fish were caught on lures. Anglers had to keep moving to follow the shoals through the clean, flat water but most were rewarded with large bags. On Saturday John Mole and I had a red-hot three-hour session hooking a fish a cast on our Braid Marauder lures. Most captures were just under 1kg but we managed fish 2kg. The following day we tried our luck again with Danny Clapinski, Andrew Dellaca and Brendan Sheedy, catching and releasing over 100 fish in just a few hours. More would have been caught if it wasn’t for the persistence of a large seal that obviously liked the salmon as much as we did. Eastern View produced fair numbers of salmon on both bait and lure, with the best captures during the afternoon high tides. Jan Juc and Bancoora also rewarded anglers with salmon, with the better fish over 2kg. Surf poppers and bait worked but the biggest bags were again landed on lure. John Holt fished just near Stony Creek at Lorne twice to find any number of salmon to 1.5kg taking bait and Surf Snatchers. John changed to lure for hook-up every cast while the tide was running up to high. Further afield, salmon were also in numbers at Wye River where Tony and Andrew Gordon found fish to 2kg using bluebait and surf poppers. They caught 16 fish in two hours. Queenscliff cut produced silver trevally in fair numbers, with soft plastic anglers landing fish to 1.2kg on Turtleback worms. Whiting continued to reward anglers putting in hours at Queenscliff. The fish seem to be spread out, with many moves generally required to order to schools. Most anglers reported only a

One in 100: Danny Clapinski with a salmon from Fairhaven on the weekend. couple of fish at each location, ensuring a lot of anchor retrieving per session. Swan Bay again produced gummy shark, with the best sighted weighing 6kg and taken after dark from the jetty on cured eel. Numbers of small gummies seem to be biting, with most only around 2kg. Jonathan Carmichael has been anchoring up in the channel just off Duck Island where he has found the gummies love freshly caught squid. St Leonards has been the most reliable destination for whiting, with good pockets of fish on the shallow grass beds. Snapper reports have been down so far this winter but fish are still present, with all the best reports coming from Wilson Spit. Terry Thomas fished after dark with silver whiting to land two fish, with both weighing 6kg. Fishing Corio Bay’s inner-harbour, Justin Jenkins found plenty of small snapper picking his baits clean until he switched to a whole squid bait. The squid was only in the water for a few minutes when Justin’s reel screamed off before he boated a 7.2kg snapper off the old Yarra Street Pier.

Soft plastics anglers working the Geelong waterfront found fishing slow, with mainly small snapper to show for their efforts. However, Harry Richmond found a nice shoal of snotty trevalla holding up near Cunningham Pier, with the fish climbing all over his Squidgy Critter lures. Lake Bullen Merri remained the best local destination for freshwater fishing, with landbased anglers catching trout under 1kg on Powerbait. Trolling has generally produced better fish, with Bendigo’s Darren Shilling landing a nice brown of 3.3kg with a Merlin deep-diver. Other lures doing well included gold-coloured Tassie Devils. Ideal conditions made for fantastic captures of bluefin tuna again in the past week. While most fish were still running between 8kg and 15kg, visiting Canadian angler Paul St Peter caught a huge 104kg specimen on 15kg line.

Swans out to regain respect WITH the top six Geelong Football League sides playing the bottom six this weekend, all eyes will be on the South Barwon and Grovedale game at McDonalds Reserve. It won’t be just the heritage jumpers that most Geelong and Bellarine leagues sides will be wearing for this weekend’s rivalry round that will draw the crowd but the predicament in which both sides find themselves. South Barwon will definitely play finals but it has lost its past two games and there is doubt that it’s a real premiership fancy. Regaining respect will be on its agenda but getting the four points to finish in the top three will be the number-one priority. Grovedale is in the spotlight for the wrong reasons, with rumours of disharmony coming out of Burdoo Reserve. Coach Harvey Lang had huge expectations of his side his year and publicly stated them. The Tigers have not delivered at all and will once again finish outside the final five and questions are now been asked. It would be a huge upset for the Tigers to beat the Swans but if the Tigers’ players want to make a statement of approval for the coach they will come out firing. This will be a lot closer than the ladder position suggests, with South Barwon coming out on top. Other selections: ST JOSEPHS v Newtown, BELL PARK v West Saints, ST MARY’S v Colac, St Albans v LEOPOLD, North Shore v LARA.

BFL All roads lead to Queen’s Park for the muchanticipated game between ladder leaders Amateurs and Drysdale. Presently Ammos holds the top spot by percentage and will give up the minor premiership title if it loses this one. These two sides met last in round five, with Drysdale running away with the game in the second half in a high-standard match. Since then the Hawks have picked up Adam Holland from Ocean Grove and Andrew Fergusson from Corio and are even stronger. Ammos has had an unsettled line-up this year, with injuries to the likes of Lindsay Smith and Scott Faulkner stopping the team getting its best side on the field. These teams always put on a good display and

Local Footy FRANK MASON this one won’t be any different but it will be Ammos at home that wins this one. Other selections: Anglesea v TORQUAY, Newcomb v MODEWARRE, Barwon Heads v OCEAN GROVE, Portarlington v QUEENSCLIFF.

GDFL Geelong and District Football League finals may be a month away but already many are anticipating the closest finals series in years. Up until a month ago Werribee Centrals was a shoo-in to take the flag but since then it has lost one game and battled in a few more. The Centurions are still on top but the gap between them and the rest has narrowed significantly. Second placed Bannockburn has also suffered a horror patch with two losses from its last four outings. In its favour is that it has beaten Werribee in that same period. Consistency may well be a problem but at least the Tiger coaching panel knows the talent is there. What has really set tongues wagging is the sensational form last year’s grand finalists, East Geelong and Bell Post Hill, have shown of late. The Eagles have six on the trot and can barge their way to second spot if they keep on winning. Fifth placed North Geelong will definitely play finals for the first time in a while and has shown it has the talent to give the others a real run for their money. This weekend’s round pits second placed Bannockburn and fourth placed East Geelong at Victoria Park and third placed Bell Post Hill and North Geelong at Keith Barclay Oval. By Saturday night there may be an indication of which way this years finals series will head. Selections: ANAKIE v Corio, WINCHELSEA v Inverleigh, WERRIBEE CENTRALS v Belmont Lions, THOMSON v Geelong West, NORTH GEELONG v Bell Post Hill, BANNOCKBURN v East Geelong.

BY ERIN PEARSON OCEAN Grove Football Club captain James Dalton is recovering well from a fractured skull, according to team members. Grubbers coach Cameron McGregor said he expected Dalton back on the field within four weeks. “James is already back at full-time work and getting some very light football training,” McGregor said. “But he’s still a good month off any good contact sport.” McGregor said Dalton had escaped long-term injury following the accident during a

club reunion last month. However, the skipper was still dealing with “temporary troubles”. “James still has limited hearing in his left ear but once the fluid has subsided it’s expected to improve,” McGregor said. “At the moment he’s contributing off field and around the club as captain. “He’s been to all the team meetings and team dinners and as far as I’m aware he’ll make a full recovery. “We hope to have him back playing around round 17.” Dalton was at Ocean Grove’s Zebra Bar on June 19 celebrating the Grubbers’ 2000 pre-

miership reunion when he fell and hit his head around midnight. Ocean Grove has suffered a run of serious injuries this season. Ryan Baker is out with a calf injury, Andrew Strauchan is battling an achillies problem and Mathew Davis is recovering from a knee reconstruction. McGregor said Baker and Strauchan would probably also return in round 17 along with other players. “It’s not good having some of better players out but it does gives other players opportunity to play,” the coach said.
