Keep creek below 2000 homes - Guy

Greeted: Matthew Guy hears the grievances of Save Spring Creek campaigner David Bell before Wednesday’s meeting with Surf Coast councillors. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 67727 munity opposition to any development in Spring Creek. “We had 2328 objections to the development of Spring Creek and that’s been ignored. Stop and think, Mr Guy, and go back to the drawing board,” he said.

“We live in this town and we want as say with what happens. Unless you’re vigilant and willing to stand up you will get steam rolled by this process.” Corangamite MP Darren Cheeseman accused South

Barwon MP Andrew Katos and Mr Guy of misleading the community on Spring Creek. Enough land was available in Torquay’s north for 10 years’ growth, Mr Cheeseman said. Jan Juc’s Merrin Wake feared

BY ERIN PEARSON POLICE will crack down on dangerous drivers in Surf Coast school zones over the next three weeks, according to a senior officer. Surf Coast Traffic Management Unit Acting Sergeant Nigel Morrison said police would target speed, seatbelt, mobile phone and child restraint offences as part of Operation Care Bear. “I’ve seen in the past that these offences have been a problem across the Surf Coast and we know they’re things we must keep on top of,” he said. “We’re reminding parents school zones are back in force and will be spreading ourselves around schools on the Surf Coast to implement this.” Act Sgt Morrison said his traffic management unit would specifically monitor school crossings in Torquay, Airey’s Inlet, Anglesea, Moriac and Winchelsea. Lorne Police Sergeant David Cooper said his station was running a similar campaign. The station’s police were “continually” catching drivers speeding in 40km/h school zones. “Operation St George will run until the end of the month to target excessive speeding in school zones as a result of the continued flauting of the law by locals,” Sgt Cooper said. “Even teachers have been pulled over for breaking the 40 km/h speed limit. “People just don’t adhere and are going through these zones at 60 km/h and 70 km/h. It’s just dangerous. “Every day we’re getting people flouting these laws so we’ve made an effort to run a similar operation.”

BY ERIN PEARSON AND JOHN VAN KLAVEREN SPRING Creek’s growth area should have less than 2000 homes, according to Planning Minister Matthew Guy. Mr Guy announced after meeting Surf Coast councillors on Wednesday that he would support only a low-density option for the land one-kilometre west of Duffields Road. Mr Guy said he hoped plans for Spring Creek could now be “concluded” after years of discussion and consultation. Mr Guy’s preferred low-density option would cap homes at eight per hectare instead of the usual 12, he said. “I think giving that certainty to residents is a better outcome than leaving another five years of uncertainty,” Mr Guy said. The previous Labor Government intended to approve 6000 homes in Spring Creek, he said. “I’m willing to look at figures under 2000; a proper outcome which will preserve the view lines of the area, preserve once and for all the boundary between Bellbrae and Torquay and give that certainty that the previous government wouldn’t.” Mr Guy recently told council to decide on its plans for development in Spring Creek at council’s July 27 meeting or State Government would call in the decision. About 120 Save Spring Creek protesters picketed the meeting. Save Spring Creek campaigner David Bell said the protest demonstrated the level of com-

MOVING from a V12 speedway car to an homemade electric ute was a dramatic sacrifice of horsepower, admits Peter Reeves. “It’s just so, so different,” the Belmont resident said. “But it’s very enjoyable for a whole set of reasons.” Mr Reeves became an electric car enthusiast after growing “quite green” with age. He said his battery-powered Holden Rodeo was the first backyard conversion in Geelong to earn VicRoads approval. But more plug-in vehicles were appearing on the region’s road with increasing membership of Geelong Electric Vehicle Interest Group, he said. Mr Reeves, the group’s con-

with his battery-powered sedan would cost about $20,000 but owners with household solar power, such as him, could charge their vehi-

cles for free, he said. Plenty of help with the conversion was always available for anyone with limited mechanical skills. “I was surprised how many people came out of the woodwork offering to help or give advice with my ute. It was a real team effort,” Mr Reeves said. Contemporary home-built electric cars could travel up to 100km before recharging, he said, making them ideal as “town runabouts”. Mr Reeves credited increasing fuel prices and a shift to green thinking for the rise of electric cars. “Most families will have two cars in the future, with one electric for short-distance work.”

Missing man may be with ‘homeless’ BY ERIN PEARSON A MISSING Highton man could be living among homeless people after disappearing last Friday, according to police. Sergeant Adam Forehan said police and family members had grave concerns for 24-year-old Daniel O’Keeffe. Sgt Forehan said Mr O’Keeffe had not used his phone or bank account since disappearing from his home. Mr O’Keeffe had failed to take his depression medication since July 12.

“His reasons for leaving are unknown,” Sgt Forehan said. “We’re seeking assistance from the public in identifying Dan or (urging) Dan himself to make contact to let police know he’s okay.” Police were also appealing to homeless people and their support agencies to “keep an eye out” for Mr O’Keeffe. His family attended a police media conference on Wednesday to call on the public to help find him. Long-term girlfriend Suzie Mansfield said Mr O’Keeffe’s disappearance was out of character.

“It’s safe to say the family and I agree it’s well and truly out of Dan’s behaviour. If he’s by himself that’s fine, we’re all happy if that’s what he wants, but we want to know he’s okay.” Ms Mansfield made a direct appeal to Mr O’Keeffe. “Just let anybody know (you’re okay).” Sgt Forehan said anyone with information should phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. The search was continuing when the Independent went to press on Wednesday afternoon.

Workers ‘dig up’ lost town west of Geelong BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN CONTRACTORS working on duplication of the Princes Highway west of Geelong have uncovered the remnants of a small town dating back to the 1850s, according to VicRoads. VicRoads project director Tony Hedley said the discovery had attracted the interest of Heritage Victoria. He said the town of Clifford was established as early as 1853 on the Colac Road near Cape Otway and Devon roads, Mt Moriac. “It soon had a school, church, hotel,

store, post office and a smithy. By the year 1890, all of the people living in the town were listed as farmers,” Mr Hedley said. “Current conditions indicate that the Princes Highway in this location has altered considerably from the small road it would have been in the 1870s.” Mr Hedley said the works had uncovered the remnants of four buildings near the intersection: a Church of England dating from establishment in 1853 to 1875; the store and post office (1869); the hotel (1871 to 1877),

which was destroyed in a fire; and a blacksmith station (1872). Mr Hedley said VicRoads had consulted Heritage Victoria during investigations of the sites. “Archaeologists remove artefacts of significance for cataloguing during this process. Permits have been granted to remove the remains as required to enable construction of the new highway.” Mr Hedley said VicRoads did not expect the discoveries to delay work on the highway duplication.

The project remained scheduled for completion in 2014, he said. Contractor BMD Constructions has been working on the $220 million duplication between Waurn Ponds and Winchelsea. State and federal governments have committed a further $515 million to continue the highway duplication beyond Winchelsea to Colac. Mr Hedley said planning studies, site investigations and concept design works for the Winchelsea to Colac work would begin later this year.

in brief Children sale A GEELONG mother who posted her two children for sale on Ebay has escaped police charges. Police decided against charging the woman after accepting her explanation that the posting was a joke but Department of Human Services revealed it would launch its own investigation to determine whether the under-10 children were at risk of harm.

Young ‘racism’ ALLEGATIONS of racial abuse in an under-12s match between Portarlington and Drysdale have rocked Bellarine Football League. Football Geelong scheduled a tribunal hearing for Wednesday night after national media coverage of a Drysdale player allegedly calling an 11-year-old Demons opponent a “nigger”.

Speedy suburbs POLICE have caught more motorists speeding in the Belmont and Highton area than any other part of the Geelong region, according to new figures. Police released statistics this week showing 1263 speeding offences in the 3216 postcode for the past financial year.

Selwood ‘improved’ GEELONG researchers have identified “inefficiencies” in the running style of star Cat Joel Selwood to help him become an elite footballer, according to Deakin University. The university said a team from Deakin’s School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences identified shortcomings in Selwood’s gait, which had since been modified to improve his performance.

Cyclists coming ONE OF Australia’s “premier” road cycling series will tour Geelong in August after kicking off in Gippsland next week, according to Victoria’s Sport and Recreation Minister. Hugh Delahunty said the 2011 Scody Cup would feature some of Australia’s emerging cycling champions competing in the four-race series.

Club closed A TRIBUNAL has issued an interim injunction ordering Geelong’s Rush nightclub to close amid fraud allegations over the transfer of its liquor licence, according to Victoria’s Consumer Affairs Minister. Michael O’Brien said the state’s liquor licensing director was seeking an inquiry into whether Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal had grounds to take action including permanently cancelling the licence and imposing fines up to $30,000.

Marles debate CORIO MP Richard Marles has flown to New York for a United Nations debate on climate change and security in his role as federal parliamentary secretary for Pacific Island affairs. Mr Marles said his trip also included visiting Cuba to “further develop closer aid cooperation” in the Pacific.

‘Air guitar shirt’ to strike a chord with exhibition AN ELECTRONIC “air guitar shirt” will blast out the Australian anthem next week to launch an exhibition of initiatives in Geelong science laboratories. Dr Richard Helmer, who invented the shirt with CSIRO Belmont colleague Michael Mestrovic, said rehearsals were underway for next week’s performance. Dr Helmer described the guitar as sensors that could be strapped to a shirt below the elbows.

One sensor was for strumming and the other to choose chords. The launch of the State of Design Festival exhibition at Ford Discovery Centre on Wednesday would be the shirt’s debut performance of Advance Australia Fair. “We’re going to add a bit of spice to it,” Dr Helmer said. A Geelong music teacher would play the anthem, although he had no experience with guitars or the shirt. “We’re under the pump,” Dr

Helmer said. “But you don’t have to be a guitarist to play (the shirt). You don’t even have to be a musician.” Dr Helmer said he and his colleague invented the shirt “because we could” but it had since found applications in improving the performance of athletes. “We’re trying to take it into medical stuff as well.” Organisers said the interactive exhibition would also feature a

Deakin University search and rescue robot and a “super-fast human-powered vehicle”. Inventors and designers would attend to show how their creations could be adapted to various applications, the organisers said. The exhibition, running under the theme Design That Moves, would be open for “self-guided tours” until July 29. The Ford centre is in Gheringhap Street.

A $3000 cash prize will help Geelong pay homage to the bell-ringing father and son “icons” of the city’s historic T&G Tower, according to organisers. They said the inaugural Bell Ringer Award would go to the winner of a “mighty battle between performers” during a Streets Are Alive festival in Geelong on October 8 and 9.

Cancer call CANCER Council Victoria has issued a call for volunteers to help lead its 25th annual Daffodil Day fundraiser in the Geelong region. A spokesperson said the council would be unable to run its two stalls in the region on August 16 without the help of 12 extra volunteers.

School win GROVEDALE Primary School’s “dedication to healthy, active education” has won $1000 in a national competition, according to organisers. The school said it would use the Nestle Healthy Active Classroom Challenge prize to build a vegetable garden hothouse from recycled bottles and to stock it with seedlings.

‘Black spots’ driving case for NBN roll out

BY KIM WATERS BABY mix-ups in Geelong hospitals are “far more common” than realised, according to a breastfeeding counsellor who experienced her own accidental newborn switch. Australian Breastfeeding Association Geelong’s Marlee Agnew called on Federal Government to implement an “electronic protection system” for infants at birth. Ms Agnew said the American system involved anklets for babies and wristbands for mothers that beeped if mismatched. Ms Agnew said the American system would prevent mix-ups similar to an incident at Geelong’s St John of God Hospital last week when staff gave the wrong newborns to two mothers for eight hours. Ms Agnew said she experienced her baby mix-up at Geelong Hospital’s Baxter House more than 40 years ago. “I know it also happened at St John of God about six years ago and probably at every hospital around the country.” Ms Agnew said a mandatory electronic protection system would give new mothers peace of mind. “It would be the answer we’re looking for to stop these mix ups.” A St John of God spokesperson said the hospital was investigating last week’s mistake. The hospital had offered the families involved counselling and pastoral care, the spokesperson said. “Protocols are in place to ensure mothers are given their own baby but it seems that in this instance human error was involved. Unfortunately, it seems the baby’s identification bracelets were not checked against the identification bracelets on their mothers. “We deeply regret this mistake and will be reinforcing to staff the importance of abiding by hospital protocols at all times.”

said a big issue for business was the variability in speeds presently available. “There are a lot of technology-based industries in Geelong now but what we need from a business perspective is similar up and down-load speeds,” Mr Heather said. “Business has to do so much off-site storage of backups instead of doing it online because the upload speeds are so slow. “There’s a perception that Geelong is well serviced because we have Neighbourhood Cable offering

high speeds but that only covers a portion of the area. Outlying areas are lucky to get 1.5mbs. “There are a number of older exchanges around Geelong – the Belmont exchange is notorious for slow speeds.” Mr Heather said cables to exchanges sometime ran in loops, so proximity to an exchange did not necessarily mean faster speeds. “You could be a kilometre from the exchange but your cable could run an extra two or three kilometres,” he said.

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN INTERNET black spots and patchy broadband connection speeds plague the Geelong region, according to IT experts. They identified Bell Park, South Geelong, Wandana Heights, some areas of the Bellarine Peninsula and Leopold as among the worst for limited services. The black-spot list follows last week’s Independent revealing that Geelong was pushing to jump the queue for connection to Australia’s National Broadband Network. Barwon Computer Solutions general manager Adam Tattersall said even his own Highton home was unable to connect to ADSL2, which offers the highest speeds currently available. “My phone line goes back to the Belmont exchange and I have to make do with a maximum speed of 1.5mbs. Anything greater than that would just make the system fall over,” Mr Tattersall said. “The whole area is definitely patchy. There’s congestion in some exchanges because there are a limited number of ADSL ports and it slows everything down.” Mr Tattersall said Geelong desperately needed the NBN roll-out because of the number of head offices in the region. “These businesses need really large internet connections,” he said. “A lot of Geelong business data has to be kept off site because the system here just can’t handle it. A fibre system with upgraded exchanges would open Geelong up to a whole new era in technology.” Mr Tattersall said his business had to install multiple phone lines into its premises to achieve enough speed to service the needs of clients.

Driving home his point: Tony Abbott gets his hands dirty at Breakwater’s Aus Pits this week. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 67772

BY KIM WATERS OPPOSITION leader Tony Abbott has vowed to protect Geelong’s small and medium-sized businesses from the Gillard Government’s “crippling” carbon tax. Mr Abbott told workers at Breakwater concrete manufacturer Aus Pits this week that he would scrap the tax if elected Prime Minister. He warned that many small and medium-sized businesses in the region would suffer under the “hobbling” tax. “I want you guys to stay in business, I want you guys to stay employed. I want to try to ensure this company has a good future,” Mr Abbott said. “If we win the next election we will take this tax off, that’s an absolute guarantee. It’s the first thing we’ll try to do.” Mr Abbott said businesses like Aus Pits would face “needless” uncertainty over unknown costs. “There is compensation for households, there is assistance for some large businesses, but small and medium businesses like this are not assisted and that’s obviously going to be a real problem for

job security in businesses like this. “You won’t know how much your costs go up until your suppliers send you post carbon tax invoices. You’re expected to quote for jobs after July next year without knowing…the price.” Mr Abbott promised workers his direct action plan for climate change would reduce carbon emissions with “incentives rather than penalties”. “There’s a smart way and a dumb way to achieve a five per cent reduction in emissions. We want to do it in a smart way, by building on the common sense practices that many Australian businesses have already adopted.” Federal Labor MP for Corio Richard Marles ridiculed Mr Abbott’s “doomsday” prediction. “The facts are that the Gillard Labor Government will allocate, free of charge, Australian carbon permits to the most emission-intensive and tradeexposed industries.” Mr Marles said manufacturing companies could also be eligible for the Government’s Clean Technology Program grants to invest in energyefficient equipment.

Cheeseman ‘stands by Gillard’ as polls keep falling BY ERIN PEARSON JULIA Gillard should continue leading the country despite falling polls, according to Corangamite MP Darren Cheeseman. Mr Cheeseman said he remained “100 per cent” behind his embattled leader. Mr Cheeseman was the first Labor MP to publicly back Ms Gillard’s prime ministerial credentials before she ousted predecessor Kevin Rudd. A Nielsen Poll this week found that Ms Gillard’s approval rating had dropped to a

new low of 34 per cent, the lowest since Paul Keating in 1995. The poll predicted the Gillard Government would also lose in a landslide if an election was held now, with the Coalition ahead 61 to 39 per cent on the two-party vote. Mr Cheeseman said he remained one of Ms Gillard’s “biggest fans”. “Julia Gillard is absolutely the best person to lead this nation,” he declared. “She is getting around this country campaigning very hard to set a price on carbon.

“I will continue to support her in the very tough and challenging role she has at the moment.” Opposition leader Tony Abbott, who outpointed Ms Gillard in the Nielsen Poll as preferred Prime Minister, said she would lose her job if his campaign against the carbon tax was strong. “Frankly, if you’re a PM who tries to bring something in that does as much needless damage as this will do you deserve to lose your job over it?”

Duo agrees to burqa session BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG organisers of a controversial Ban the Burqa protest have agreed to meet women who wear the cover-all Islamic garment. Bradley Hutchinson said he and Kye Keating had agreed to a challenge on morning television show Sunrise to speak with burqa wearers. “If they (Sunrise) can find a rational, open person, sure thing we’ll meet with them,” Mr Hutchinson said. Mr Hutchinson told the Independent last week that he and Mr Keating started their Ban the

Burqa Facebook page to stop wearers concealing their identities in public. They arranged a Ban the Burqa protest last Monday. The pair denied bigotry was behind the protest but attracted criticism from Geelong’s peak multicultural services provider, Diversitat. Mr Hutchinson called the “public safety protest” a success. “The protest went pretty well, with a lot of stories about trips to shopping centres and banks and such. “The few Muslims I’ve spoken to have been angry, irrational and as racist as they accuse me of

being.” Mr Hutchinson said media outlets across Australia had inundated him and Mr Keating with requests for interviews, while their Facebook page had grown to more than 20,000 members. Mr Hutchinson maintained his criticism of the burqa as a symbol of reluctance to integrate. Diversitat chief executive officer Michael Martinez hoped the meeting with burqa wearers would educate Mr Hutchinson and Mr Keating. “It’s a good idea they meet these women to find out their cultural and religions beliefs,” Mr Martinez said.

Country girl’s Maddy about fashion this year but I definitely didn’t think I’d win,” she laughed. “All the girls are gorgeous, so it was really hard to even think I had the possibility of finishing first.” Ms Griffin said she was looking forward to starting a fashion course in Melbourne next year after completing secondary schooling at Sacred Heart College in 2010. She hoped the modelling experience would give her an

insight into the industry. “I’ve been interested in fashion my whole life and always wanted to be a fashion designer, so I’m really excited about starting my fashion design course at RMIT next year.” Ms Griffin will compete in the national finals in November. Nicole Mitrov, 13, won Miss Country Girl Junior for Geelong at the contests in Market Square Shopping Centre last Friday.

RECYCLING AND RUBBISH

BY ERIN PEARSON GERMANY’S closure of a stem cell clinic has jeopardised a Geelong man’s bid to beat multiple sclerosis, he has told the Independent. Sandy Alvaro, 39, said he desperately needed the controversial therapy after initial sessions in Sydney reduced his symptoms. “I need to improve my quality of life and Germany is leading the research in stem cell treatment, so going there was my best option,” he said. Mr Alvaro said his hopes faded when the German Government closed the Dusseldorf-based X-Cell Center following a change in European guidelines for stem cell treatments. The centre’s website told patients their appointments were cancelled “until further notice”. The centre had been operating under an administrator after filing for insolvency in May. Mr Alvaro was diagnosed with MS in 1998. The condition attacks the central nervous system, causing severe nerve pain and fatigue. Mr Alvaro, who has a threeyear-old daughter, said he was shattered over the X-Cell closure. Stem cell treatment has sparked international controversy for harvesting embryonic cells. But Mr Alvaro wants an alterna-

Many doctors believe stem cell treatment can regenerate tissue to treat conditions including MS, cerebral palsy, spinal injuries and arthritis. Mr Alvaro previously had a stem cell procedure at a Sydney clinic that harvested cells from his fat but the German centre would have drawn them from

his marrow. He said he would have to return to Sydney instead of his preferred German clinic if Germany maintained its ban on X-Cell’s treatments. The company’s website said X-Cell had treated thousands of patients. “Since I had initial infusion in Sydney my energy levels have increased and my fatigue is

Asbestos delays park reopening BY ERIN PEARSON DISCOVERY of more asbestos has again set back plans to reopen You Yangs Regional Park, according to Parks Victoria. The park was due to reopen this month after six months of work to replace asbestos drainage infrastructure uncovered during heavy rains in January. Authorities initially planned to reopen the park for Easter. Parks Victoria’s chief Geelong ranger Siobhan Rogan said workers had discovered another three asbestos culverts in the park. “The asbestos culverts are now being removed under strict Work Safe and EPA standards,” she said. “Earthmoving machinery will also continue to operate as road works and car park upgrades progress on Great Circle Drive, the main access route within the park, for all of July. “In the interests of public safety, the park is expected to re-open in stages from the second week of August.” The clean-up has cost $1.5 million so far to remove about 80 tonnes of asbestos, replace 100 culverts and repair 25 kilometres of bike tracks.

The parts are then sent off for recycling.

The club, established in 1913, holds monthly get-togethers at Geelong Showgrounds. Members participate in weekly races from late May to the end of October. Birds race over 60km at the start of the racing season, with the distance increasing by 100km every three weeks. By the end of the season the birds race up to 1000km. This year the season will culminate in a race from Bourke, in northern New South Wales. Morry said club races offered prize money of $50 for first, $30 for second and $20 for third as well as a trophy. The club sometimes organised special races in which birds might fly from Tasmania to the mainland while vying for a prize pool of up to $10,000. Morry said anyone seeking more information about the club could phone him on 0414 614 507 or visit vha.asn.au.

from breeders if need be.â&#x20AC;? Morry said homing pigeons were celebrated in World War I. One famous bird was credited with saving an entire battalion caught behind enemy lines. Morry said competitors bred and trained their own birds. He described preparing the pigeons for racing as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;bit of an artâ&#x20AC;?. Most pigeon fanciers kept between 50 and 100 race birds, breeding baby pigeons called squabs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to get them in race condition, which takes a lot of training by taking them to certain locations and flying them home,â&#x20AC;? Morry said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When the bird comes home you have to get it straight into the cage. Controlling the feed helps maintain homing control.â&#x20AC;? Morry said the club had a lot of juniors coming through the ranks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Funnily enough, kids will sometimes lose interest but the

FINDING the way home, for we humans, is aided by landmarks, street signs or a GPS. But how would we go if we were just dropped in the middle of nowhere without any of the usual assistance? One option might be to follow a pigeon â&#x20AC;&#x201C; if you can. Geelong City Homing Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s resident bird man, Morry Iacovella, said no one quite knew how the birds found their way home, sometimes over distances of 1000 kilometres. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are some interesting theories,â&#x20AC;? he explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some scientists claim the birds rely on Earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s magnetic fields, others believe the birds use the position of the Sun to direct them.â&#x20AC;? Morry had a few other interesting facts about homing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or racing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; pigeons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The birds can travel from 40 to 120 kilometres per hour, depending on wind and weather conditions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When releasing birds for training, they often beat their owner home because they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to stop for traffic. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The defence force still uses homing pigeons today. In fact, they had them available to use in Iraq in case normal communications failed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The racing pigeon is protected and the army can requisition them

WHAT is the rationale for State Government’s reduction in library funding (Independent, July 15)? Libraries are educational and cultural hubs that provide meeting places and a wide range of accessible services and activities for people from all age groups and diverse backgrounds. Further, why were councils and library corporations notified of the cuts only after their budgets had been finalised? At best this was discourteous but at worst it smacks of contempt for councils and their communities. Such cuts mean savings will have to be found elsewhere or library staffing and/or services reduced. The ramifications of cuts for Geelong will be great because its library is experiencing increasing demands on its collection and services. Does this ill-considered action herald a period of bad budgeting practices by the Baillieu Government or, worse, a new era of Kennett-style attacks on valued community assets? Jennifer Wills Portarlington

I AM concerned and deeply disappointed at State Government’s decision to cut funding to public library operational costs funded under the public libraries grant program. The recurrent state funding contribution for public libraries has reduced from 20.1 per cent of service expenditure over the past three years to 19.2 per cent, while local government’s recurrent contribution has grown from 72 to 74.7 per cent. A loss of funding will increase ratepayer pressure on Geelong Regional Library Corporation and member councils to fund the increasing gap in operational costs. The library corporation experienced an increase in the 2010/2011 financial year of eight per cent in use of the lending collection, with 2.5 million items loaned. Physical visits to libraries increased 13 per cent, with 2.4 million visits to the region’s network of 13 libraries and three mobile libraries, and an increase of more than 100 per cent in use of online library services including e-databases and e-books. The benefits of a range of public library programs that provide economic, educational and cultural benefit to the life of Geelong and its visitors are well documented. Our library is at the forefront of learning and

community development programs and must be maintained with adequate resources. Yvonne Adami East Geelong

Bad Guy WE ARE saddened, angered and disgusted at the contemptuous treatment of our community by socalled Planning Minister Matthew Guy. To ride roughshod over the wishes of many in the community and to use a primary school as ransom against Surf Coast Shire is no better than the behaviour of governments in Africa. One would have thought that 25 per cent of the population was a significant voice of objection to Spring Creek development. There is no shortage of housing in Torquay and Jan Juc, where nearly half the houses lie empty for most of the year until their rich city owners decide to take a break. We dread to think Spring Creek will be filled with the same waste of space. What is the rush to push this development through? Are there already done-deals between State Government, real estate agents and developers? Why else would the Planning Minister start bullying council one month before it finalised its 2040 decision? If council wants to retain any credibility with its constituents it will hold tight to its decision to have the new primary school and major development in Torquay’s north and to vote against development of Spring Creek. We do not need a primary school in the area suggested by Mr Guy. Sandra and Richard Jennings Jan Juc

The hate tax WHY DO Labor and the Greens hate the Australian people? This is the only explanation I can think of as to why they are treating us this way over the carbon tax. Labor lied before the last election because it knew people wouldn’t vote for it if it was honest about its intentions. Now both Labor and the Greens say the Liberals’ call to give us the right to vote on the carbon tax is nothing more than a political stunt. Or is it democracy that Labor and the Greens hate so much?

The Independent, Friday July 22, 2011

GAVIN Brown (Letters, June 15) alleged I deliberately misrepresented remarks by Professor Tim Flannery. Is this the same Gavin Brown who stood as a Greens candidate at the last federal election? If so, then his response is predictable but not excusable. Mr Brown mischievously claimed I misquoted Prof Flannery. In my letter I said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;And in any case, going by Climate Commissioner Tim Flanneryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments, climate change does not pose an immediate threatâ&#x20AC;?. In other words, I was interpreting Prof Flannery. I certainly did not attribute the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;immediate threatâ&#x20AC;? to him. Prof Flanneryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1000 years comment was picked up by The Australian, which reported: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Gillard Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chief promoter of the climate change debate has admitted even a global effort to cut carbon emissions would not lower temperatures for up to 1000 yearsâ&#x20AC;?. Prof Flannery made the same 1000-year remark here in Geelong on March 25. I was there and my hearing is perfectly sound. Mr Brown, if he were at the meeting, must have very selective hearing. If I had misquoted Prof Flannery it should be easy for Mr Brown to supply the exact quote with the citation. Or, on the other hand, if Mr Brown wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t at the Geelong meeting he wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have known what Prof Flannery said in any case. The Independent was correct in publishing my letter because it did not contain any inaccurate information. If Mr Brown cannot prove his allegations he should publicly withdraw his obnoxious comment.

â&#x20AC;˘ the Australian energy regulator developing a plan for how the grid can deliver 100 per cent renewable energy. How could we in the Barwon region benefit from the opportunities of the plans, including in our business and manufacturing sectors? Local government, businesses and community can be active participants and our Future Proofing Geelong Low Carbon Growth Plan is an exciting opportunity for our region. Vicky Grosser Manifold Heights

First step to future ON JULY 10 we saw the Gillard Government take the first significant step in addressing urgent climate change.

The clean energy future package will charge the top 500 polluters for the pollution they put into our atmosphere, invest in clean energy and open positive economic opportunities. The package not only compensates nine out of 10 families for increased costs, it leaves many better off. The climate movement said yes to a price on pollution and yes to a clean-energy future. On July 1 next year Australia will begin the shift to a green economy powered by clean, renewable energy. This package should be designed to work to a pollution reduction target that limits global warming to 2C as the internationally recognised upper safe level of warming. But the five-per-cent-by-2020 target of the package is far from sufficient on Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part to meet this necessity. Unfortunately, the reason the package works to

such a small target is because its effectiveness has been compromised by $9.2 billion dollars in compensation for the big polluters and a low starting price of only $23 dollar per tonne of pollution. There is a long way to go in creating a safe climate future but the clean energy future package is a significant first step. Zac Power Geelong West

Money for future THERE have been mixed responses to the Gillard Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plans for the carbon tax roll out. I found myself impressed with a key part of the plan â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the money set aside to address our need for renewable energy with all its associated employment potentials. The plans include new money, new independent bodies and an energy regulator to develop a plan for how the grid can deliver 100 per cent renewable energy through: â&#x20AC;˘ a new clean-energy finance corporation with $10 billion over five years, of which 50 per cent is quarantined for renewables only; â&#x20AC;˘ a new independent Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) administering $3.7 billion of existing renewable energy programs; and

Sounds of ’60s BY ERIN PEARSON THE LATE 1960s was a pioneering time in music, according to veteran Australian rock music legend Jim Keays. “The Beatles were still around and there weren’t the distractions that there are now,” he said. “Every kid was into music. It was an exciting time.” Keays, the former lead singer of The Masters Apprentices from 1965 to 1971, has been playing the sounds of the ’60s alongside two other legends of Australian rock since 2000 in Cotton, Keays and Morris (CKM). Keays said he and bandmates Darryl Cotton and Russell Morris had a steady schedule of shows. “We’re doing 100 gigs a year because we appeal to the baby boomer market. All the hits we had were in the era when those people were growing up, so the music was a part of their youth. “That’s the great thing about music, it’s timeless. It’s great to be able to bring joy to people.” Cotton rose to Australian fame in pop band Zoot alongside Rick Springfield and Beeb Birtles. Morris shot to success as part of Somebody’s Image before releasing hit single The Real Thing in the late ’60s. Keays said the three watched musical genres evolve during their respective careers in bands

Real things: Russell Morris, Jim Keays and Darryl Cotton play at Geelong’s waterfront next month. and as solo artists. “When we first started we were garage punk music and then it became psychedelic music then progressive rock,” he laughed. “This all happened whilst we were juggling 15 gigs a week. It was just ridiculous. “This doesn’t happen now and thank God it doesn’t.” Keays said the music of the ’60s and ’70s would never die. “The good thing about CKM is

that a lot of the songs we do have lived on largely due to radio stations like Gold FM and Because I Love You has been used in lots of television ad campaigns,” he said. “To be gainfully employed 40 years after we began our music careers is unbelievable. “And long may it last!” Cotton Keays and Morris will play at Geelong’s Deakin Waterfront Cafe on August 14.

‘Top-line bands’ set to headline at Queenscliff BY ERIN PEARSON AUSTRALIAN bands Eskimo Joe, The Triffids and Gypsy and The Cat will headline this year’s Queenscliff Music Festival, organisers have announced. Festival director Michael Carrucan said more than 100 acts would perform across five stages at this year’s festival back in its initial Princess Park site. Camping was also on the cards for the first time this year, Carrucan said. “I am rapt about the depth and breadth of talent and music we have on offer. “There’s a real commitment here by everyone involved to make the festival the most affordable, best-value-formoney ticket going around.” Joining the headliners will be The Cruel Sea, The Herd, Kimbra, The Beautiful Girls, Shane Nicholson, Pseudo Echo, Richard Clapton and The Snowdroppers. Carrucan said The Triffids and indigenous reggae collective No Fixed Address would perform exclusively for the festival in one-off Victorian concerts. Queenscliff would be The Triffids’

first festival since the death of band leader and singer/songwriter David McComb. “Special international guests” would join The Triffids for its twohour set. The Triffids formed in Perth in 1978 before earning international success and a 2008 induction into the ARIA Hall of Fame. Band member Graham Lee said Queenscliff would be “bittersweet”. “The motivation is to celebrate Dave’s life by singing the songs he wrote but we’re doing this because he isn’t with us,” Lee said. “When we play though is when it comes home to us that we were very, very lucky. We were constantly being presented with songs that were absolutely amazing songs. “We were spoilt for material because Dave was such a prolific writer, such a great writer. “We knew what we were doing was good at the time but never though it would stand the test of time the way it has.” Queenscliff Music Festival will run from November 25 to 27.

Screen Actors Australia John Henderson is an actor, director and musician with many credits to his name. This month he is busy shooting a feature film while managing his drama school SCREEN ACTORS GEELONG. John has been the Director of Screen Actors Geelong since 2007 and has helped hundreds of local actors achieve their dreams of working in film and television. Last year, John travelled to Hollywood to study at the prestigious Stella Adler Academy of Acting. “It was such an amazing experience and has changed the way I tackle drama classes at Screen Actors. All my leading teachers have attended the Stella Adler program, so our students have a real advantage!”

John has a Bachelor of Arts (Communication Studies) and Bachelor of Teaching (Primary and Secondary) from Deakin University.

Address: 32-34 Little Ryrie Street, Geelong Phone: 5229 1600

John trains a variety of students from the ages of 3 to 73. His studio offers classes for beginners, advanced and ‘social’ actors. “Drama is great fun, but there is also a discipline involved. I teach my actors to be passionate, inventive, professional and resilient - which are skills that relate to many industries.”

Cash Converters Over the last 13 years Cash Converters has aimed to change perceptions of second-hand dealers. “Cash Converters has made itself a pleasant place to shop and an easy way to sell or loan goods,” owner Jon says.

“The hard work is paying off and the recent response from customers has been overwhelmingly positive.” “Our new personal finance centre is more spacious and friendly space and the new, modern colours will brighten the whole store,” Jon says. Cash Converters has always led the way in responsible lending, so Jon’s team will change the perceptions of new customers about buying and selling second-hand goods.

Crackmasters Whether it’s a once-over for an entertaining area before a party or sealing a crack or two in a driveway, Crackmasters can help. Director Jason Cobb says Crackmasters is happy to take on small jobs. “We handle anything to do with pavement, from cleaning and repairing asphalt and concrete to reconstruction projects, the whole lot.” Jason says the company recently completed a large project for Parks Victoria, replacing 800 metres of culverts at the You Yangs state park. Crackmasters installed a fuel-resistant resurfacer at Avalon Airport, placing a membrane across the tarmac to prevent spilled fuel damaging the asphalt. “All these products and services are available for domestic clients as well,” Jason says. Crackmasters’ new, powerful, truck-mounted pressure washing unit is proving popular. The Geelong-based company has expanded, with a Crackmasters franchise now on the Gold Coast.

combined fuel consumption of 9.1 litres per 100 km, although on our brief test - including some enthusiastic driving to get the feel of the engine and transmission – it used a hefty 13.7 litres/100 km. We look forward to a full road test in the near future where we will get a better idea of real-world fuel consumption. From the Omega we jumped into an SSV ute powered by Holden’s Gen IV 6.0-litre V8 hooked up to a six-speed manual shifter. This is the vehicle at the top of Holden’s current sports ute range and in the heartland of what has been a shift from workhorse-only, to sports car that also earns it’s keep. The typical buyer is a self-employed plumber or business owner requiring a ute for light carrying duties. Many tow a trailer for the tools of trade, keeping the ute pristine for cruising and sportsrelated activities, like towing a jet ski or boat. It’s in the V8-powered utes that it becomes clear why the once-unfashionable ute has taken on the mantle of Australia’s favourite sports car. The straight-line performance is brutally quick and with Holden’s rearwheel drive combined with superb suspension,. Like the Omega, the SSV ute gains a host of new features, although the basic body shape remains the same. At last year’s launch of the Series II Ute. Changes to the SSV include new interior trim, upgrade to 19 inch alloy wheels and satellite navigation with live traffic updates.

BY ERIC BLAIR THERE’S nothing quite like driving a ute in Australia, the country that, at least by one account, invented the utility. In other countries utilities might be seen as working vehicles, in Australia they are lifestyle items. Our recent road test of the latest Holden SSV ute, now equipped with the new SIDI 3.6-litre V6 demonstrated yet again that Aussies like to see and be seen in these hot looking vehicles. No one understands this more than the designers at Holden and the new VE series Commodore utes are aimed as much at the sporting driver as the tradie. Tradies tell us that customers like to see them arrive in more than a boring Asian machine that has no show and not a lot of go. The current VE Commodore Ute has taken on cult status in recent years. Even the austere Commodore Omega has come a long way. In its latest upgrade the Omega has gained Holden’s i-Q multimedia system, dual zone air-conditioning, a sixspeed automatic transmission, and the 3.6-litre V6 has been ousted by the 3.0-litre SIDI V6, now with E85 ethanol-blend fuel capability. If there’s no E85 available locally don’t worry, the SIDI engine also runs on unleaded and ethanol blends in between. The upgrade will set buyers back an extra $2000 with the Omega price tag now $35,490, before on-road costs. Holden claims the 3.0-litre SIDI (direct injection) engine will now get a

Elegant: Nissanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flagship Maxima sedan is modern in appearance without going over the top.

Maximum value BY ERIC BLAIR issan Maxima has enjoyed sales success in Australia over many years. Success in a class in which others have struggled, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because buyers show a preference for locally built cars in the big-six-cylinder market. The major difference between the Maxima models is under the bonnet: the 250 has a 2.5-litre variant of the V6 VQ engine compared to the 3.5 V6 in the ST-S and Ti. All models use a CVT (continuously variable transmission). So the cheapest Maxima has the lowest fuel consumption and does away with some of the bling that is added to the two 350 Maximas. So what does the Maxima 250 ST-L do without to keep its price down?

Not a lot; the 350 ST-L gets the bigger engine, rear parking sensors, a boot spoiler, intelligent keyless entry and heated front seats. Whereas the Maxima Ti adds DVD satellite navigation with 3D mapping, a 7-inch full-colour touch screen, DVD player, reversing camera with predictive path technology, 11-speaker Bose sound system with auxiliary MP3 player input. Bluetooth hands-free telephone technology is included as is a power sunroof. While Nissan has restricted some of the goodies to the upmarket Maxima models, that does not mean the Maxima 250 ST-L has a poverty pack. For starters there is leather upholstery. Then thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dual-zone air-conditioning, plus an audio system with a six-disc CD player and aux-in and MP3 compatibility. In the key area of safety the

entry level Maxima has exactly the same package as the topline Ti. That is six airbags, active front headrests, as well as ABS brakes with dynamic stability control. The Maxima continues Nissanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ethic of being elegant, but is perhaps the sportiest looking Maxima so far. The push-button start/stop button may be good for sports cars where drivers expect gadgetry, but of doubtful value to a Maxima owner who is more likely to prefer the simple act of turning a key. On long sweeping bends the car seemed right at home. Where Maxima exceeds expectations is in comfort. Recent Nissan TV commercials have highlighted that the car is ideal when caught in city traffic. Well, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to add itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not really bad either if you do happen to travel long distances.

Cold comfort: Steve Dmytrenko with a typical buck rainbow trout from Lake Tooliorook. Lonsdale Bight, with pippies and fresh squid the baits of choice. Squid returned with the clearer water, with anglers fishing in around 2m of water achieving the best results with small jigs in the 2.5 size. Shaun Burke fished with plastics at the Queenscliff cut for a nice bag of silver trevally. Using Turtleback worms in the Pumpkin Green colour, Shaun landed seven fish to just over 1kg as well as mostly small salmon. Salmon continued to give anglers plenty of action in the Barwon River estuary, with most of the bigger

Rivalry round upset looming NEWTOWN and St Josephs square off at Elderslie Reserve this weekend in the highlight game of Geelong Football League’s rivalry round. These two clubs are located within 500 metres of each other and over the years have built a rivalry that matches it with the best in the league. Adding to the tension is the bitter fallout from their round-six clash when Joeys’ Paul Carson was reported and Newtown coach Jacob Spolding was particularly vocal in his condemnation of Carson. Newtown was flogged on that day but has regrouped to sit in fourth position on the ladder, just behind Joeys, which is guaranteed a top-three finish. Newtown would have to fall in a heap not to play finals this year but a loss tomorrow takes it one step toward doing just that. Instead of thinking of survival, Spolding will have his men set on winning to make a statement that they are real challengers for the premiership and not just making up the numbers. Joeys has only lost two games for the year but has really slipped under the radar behind Bell Park and South Barwon as premiership fancies. Coach Russell Robertson is due for a big game and might find the better ground conditions at Elderslie more-suited to his high-flying ways. Expect a spirited crowd to get into the swing of things as Newtown enjoys an upset victory. Other selections: COLAC v North Shore, West Saints v BELL PARK, Grovedale v SOUTH BARWON, LEOPOLD v St Albans.

BFL The top five of Bellarine Football League is almost settled, with Queenscliff, Amateurs, Ocean Grove and Anglesea assured of playing finals even though five home-and-away matches are yet to be played. Fifth spot is the only on one in contention and Torquay has first dibs on it, with the Tigers four points clear of sixth placed Drysdale. This weekend Torquay can secure that spot for good if it can beat near neighbour Anglesea at Spring Creek Reserve. The Tigers lost to Amateurs last week in a grand performance that saw them fall just short. Drysdale has a pretty good run home to finals, so the

fish taken downstream from the bridge but the better numbers from the Ozone Jetty all the way to the Sheepwash. Surf anglers found salmon mainly from the rock platforms where the water was cleaner than the beaches. Most fish were close to 1kg but some to just over 2kg were landed at Grey River and the mouth of the St George River. I can’t remember ever receiving so many freshwater reports, which shows that plenty of rain and consequently high storage levels have sent our trout fishery from strength to strength.

FRANK MASON Tigers better make every post a winner from now on. Beating Anglesea is no easy task because the Roos have proved they are up to the challenge this year, with a mix of youth and experience resulting in solid performances. This one will be close but it will be Torquay that cements a finals spot with victory. Other selections: QUEENSCLIFF v Portarlington, Barwon Heads v OCEAN GROVE, MODEWARRE v Newcomb, Drysdale v AMATEURS.

GDFL Anakie’s hopes of making Geelong and District Football League finals took a nose dive last weekend when the Roos lost to Belmont Lions. They still sit in fifth position but their run home to the finals is hard and the two-game buffer they had over Thomson is now down to four points. This weekend the Roos start the first of three hard games when they travel to Myers Reserve to take on Bell Post Hill. Bell Post Hill is travelling nicely in second position on the ladder and has a huge array of talented players in the likes of Matthew Jovonavic, Justin Tarr, Shaun Lewis and Chris Moreland. Anakie has its own share of good performers in Nick Costello, Dan Berg, Gary Richerts and Yelsin Perek but does not have the depth of quality offered by the Panthers. With their season on the line, the Roos will throw everything into this one but it won’t be enough because Bell Post Hill will be too strong. Other selections: THOMSON v North Geelong, EAST GEELONG v Geelong West, Corio v INVERLEIGH, Bannockburn v WERRIBEE CENTRALS, BELMONT LIONS v Winchelsea.

THE SOUND of screaming reels punctuated a freezing Saturday night on Corio Bay as anglers enjoyed multiple hook-ups on snapper. Danny Moore found the fish in five metres of water off the quarries, landing three snapper over 4kg each. Danny also caught and released a further four fish. Terry Holt caught three snapper over 3kg each in Corio Bay’s inner-harbour. Terry caught all his fish on silver whiting. Paul Carter fished land-based at Bird Rock where he missed the first four runs before finally nailing a fish of 5.3kg. In the next two hours he landed two more of just over 3kg each. Land-based soft plastics anglers caught snapper from the waterfront between Cunningham Pier and Royal Geelong Yacht Club. The best fish I saw was around 2kg but larger specimens were hooked and lost. Warehou, known locally as snotty trevalla, were also taken from the same location, with Turtleback worms and curl-tail grubs working best. Calm conditions attracted plenty of boats onto the bay last weekend, with whiting and snapper dominating captures. Plenty of quality salmon were also available near the pier at Point Henry and off Hermsley. St Leonards to Edwards Point produced the best whiting fishing but they were also taken within the

Last week Lake Bullen Merri produced a huge trout of over 5.5kg along with two others just over 4kg. Trolling has accounted for most of the bigger fish from the lake. Lake Elingamite also excelled with trout to better than 2.5kg. A mix of lure and bait produced fish, with the morning’s best. First-time soft plastics angler Neil Wilson fished the lake with awesome results last weekend, nailing a magnificent redfin of 1.9kg. A small boat is required on this lake. Lismore’s Tooliorook Lake produced rainbows from 800g to 1.3kg, with bait anglers using Powerbait and counterparts on lures favouring Lil Rippers and Rapala X Raps. Ballarat’s Lake Wendouree will be worth a trip, with 90,000 liberated fish now starting to bite. Most fish are around 500g but will take a lure such as a small Tassie Devil. Weed cutting is due to start at the lake next month, so the second half of the year should be ideal. Harry James fished Bostock Reservoir with small, bibbed lures to land four rainbows of around 1kg each and in great condition. Harry said a bait angler fishing nearby also landed four nice fish on unweighted worms. Tullaroop Reservoir was also productive, with rainbows of 900g common catches for both fly and lure anglers. Deep Lake and West Barwon, Wurdee Boluc and Newlyn reservoirs are all worth fishing. Rainbow trout are dominating captures at each but browns are also present. The fish will be aggressive toward lures while spawning. Pykes Reservoir remains the sleeping giant of trout waters. Few reports have come from the reservoir but, with plenty of water and considering the quality fish we caught from here a few months ago, it should by super over the coming weeks.

ABOUT SAM (5) is a likely improver in this event after being narrowly beaten here last week. LEKTRA TRAIN (4) can race in a forward position despite the challenging, middle draw.

FULL CIRCLE (4) should find this event easier than his heat of the Maturity Classic and may only need to step away safely to prove too strong. LAURIE VALENTINE (8) was well placed at Sandown Park.

EXPLOSIVE DROP (8) may appreciate the return to a wider draw after competing against tougher company in a recent heat of the Maturity Classic series. KON TIKI (2) may also enjoy a similar drop in grade.

IT'S MANIC (3) is a rising talent who has the early speed to jump straight to the lead and run right away from his rivals in this event. ADEN JAYA (7) is rarely out of the money and can feature again.
