Assault in Cooma Two 17 year old youths from Cooma were arrested after a foot pursuit by police last Monday.

Police were called to a reported assault in the main street of Cooma about lunchtime.

Enquiries showed that two youths had approached the 16 year old victim and his group of friends in the main street, near the park.

A discussion took place before the one of the 17 year olds punched the victim a number of times, knocking him to the ground. The second of the two youths was there encouraging the assailant in the process.

After he had finished the assault the two ran off through the park and into the storm channels.

Police from Cooma General Duties, Monaro Highway Patrol and Police Radio Technicians took up the pursuit and spoke to the youths near Amos Street. The two resisted police and struggled to avoid being arrested. They were quickly overpowered, handcuffed and placed into a police truck.

One officer was injured during the incident and received treatment at the Cooma Hospital.

Both of the youths have been charged in relation to the incident, including assault, resisting police and inciting the commission of the assault. They have been granted conditional bail to appear at the Cooma Children’s Court on December 2.

Raglan decision delayed What was tipped to be a controversial decision regarding the use of the Raglan Gallery as an entertainment centre of sorts fizzled on Monday at Cooma-Monaro Shire Council, as the finalisation of the DA was delayed for another month.

Concerned neighbours Ronnie Schoon and Peter Harrison presented first, indicating that it was their privacy, general state of living and the amount of noise generated by traffic that was their prime concerns.

“That driveway past Mr Schoon’s front door should never have been approved and used until the screening that was promised in the original DA was put in place,” Mr Harrison said.

Mr Schoon had previously stated that, as a self employed person who works irregular hours, the car noise of the driveway that was fitted to meet the needs of the Raglan extension does in fact disturb him during times when he is conducting shift work.

“This part of town is very quiet so any unusual noise is disturbing,” Mr Schoon said.

He then put to Council the question, “How would you feel with strangers at

the front of your place looking in your front door?”

Both neighbours expressed that they appreciated and in fact liked the gallery, but that their concerns were for their general every day lives and the disturbances that the approval of this DA could bring.

In response Raglan board member Bob Coles and chairperson Joey Herbert, presented to Council their wish to delay the final decision on the DA for six months.

“We feel that the definition of what is a non-art function is very loose and is actually restricting the services we can offer the community,” Mr Coles said, “According to the current terms we can only offer one non-art function per week, this means we cannot offer writing classes on weekends for those who work full time, for example,” he said.

Council responded by deciding to defer the decision on the DA by one month and to meet with both the applicants and opposers within that time frame to attempt to resolve the situation.

Doing Movember in reverse

5

The Men from Snowy River On November 22, a book commemorating The men from Snowy River March will be launched at Cooma Library at 11am.

The book honours the men who joined the march 100 years ago next year.

The march will be re-enacted from Delegate beginning on November 1, 2015 and ending in Sydney on November 11, 2015.

The marchers will be bussed

between towns, and stop at all the major towns along the way as well as a number of small villages. There will also be some overnight stops.

When reaching Sydney the group will join four other groups, namely the Cooees, The Kangaroos, The Kurrajongs and the Waratahs, where they will assemble in Belmore Park near Central Station, before marching to either the War Memorial in Hyde Park, or the Cenotaph.

NOW OPEN Alex Harvey is participating in Movember, although he has a slightly different take on the well-known fundraising event.

Instead of starting a moustache from scratch he’s decided to part ways with the beard he’s long sported.

It’s been 13 years since Alex was last cleanshaven, but when he has reached $1000 in donations he will once again feel the wind beneath his chin, following a public de-bearding.

“I’ve been growing it since I was 15 or 16, in an effort to look older. Now I hide behind it,” Alex said.

Alex has chosen to dedicate his fundraising campaign to helping raise awareness of men’s health, specifically depression and anxiety in men.

Alex is part-owner of A & R Catering Cooma, which operates the Cooma Ex-Services Club Bistro. It’s not the first time the business has been associated with charitable causes, with regular donations to oganisations such as the Hospital Auxiliary and events like the Cooma Relay for Life taking place.

Readers can donate to Alex’s fundraiser via the Movember website - just type ‘Alex Harvey’ into the member search section.

Alex has promised the removal of his goatee as a ‘teaser’ of what is to come, once he has received $500 in donations.

“It is with regret and excitement that my role as Licensee of the Cooma North Post Office comes to an end on Friday November 7,” Jocelyn wrote in a note to her clients.

Though Australia Post has tried very hard to find someone to take over the licensing of the establishment, they have so far been unsuccessful.

Jocelyn said that she regretted that she will miss her contact with the poeple of Cooma North whom she, “...has come to know and cherish over the last 20+ years; and excitement that I can now look forward to the next phase of my life.”

Though it was obvious that she had mixed emotions on the occasion, the feelings of the people of Cooma North were clear, they are going

to miss Jocelyn, her smile and her service.

“I want to thank each and every one of my friends for their loyalty, their friendship and the times that we have shared and enjoyed together,” she said.

Australia Post is encouraging anyone who is interested in taking on the provision of postal services to the Cooma North community to contact Kerryn Adlridge, Retail Network Manager NSW, Australia Post on 02 6051 3620.

At a special lunch held in her honour on Friday, Jocelyn was showered with farewell gifts and stories of her many years working at the Cooma North Post Office.

BOMBALA COUNCIL GENERAL MANAGER: Ms Ngaire McCrindle Bombala is gearing up for its biggest event of the year - the Australian Motorcyclist 2014 Bombala Bike Show. Motorcyclists will start arriving from Thursday and car drivers are asked to please keep their eyes open for them over the weekend of November 15 and 16 in particular.

This annual event which is held at the Bombala Exhibition Ground on the third Saturday of November is run by a community based group who this year will be donating to the Black Dog Institute.

The Black Dog Institute is a not-for-profit facility offering specialist expertise in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mood disorders such as depression a major problem is all rural areas...

While the organising Committee for the Show have been working hard to ensure that everything is in readiness for the event, Council too have been doing their bit. We will have a new family cabin and some other minor improvements at the Bombala Caravan Park completed in time for the event.

Motorcycle tourism is an important part of the mix for our tourism sector. We have great mountains roads that link us to the coast and the mountains plus numerous towns and villages. The sealing of the Snowy River Way has seen a substantial increase in the number of motorcycles exploring the area and many are now doing the Jindabyne/Dalgety/ Bombala/Delegate/Orbost ride. This is great news for Bombala and Delegate businesses.

While on the subject of events and tourism, I would like to congratulate the Bombala Historic Engine and Machinery Society on their successful “ 2014 Working the Past Rally� held last weekend.

The Railway land at Bombala was filled with beautifully restored engines and the event was very well organised.

The McCR Garden Party was assisted by great weather on Saturday and saw many community members enjoying the beautiful surroundings of Coolringdon Parklands whilst raising money for a great cause.

Seven secrets of successful recycling Snowy River Shire residents are unlocking the secrets of successful recyclers during Planet Ark’s National Recycling Week, by coming along to the annual Recycling Expo on Saturday 15 November, between 10am to 3pm at the Jindabyne Memorial Hall.

“Snowy River Shire residents should be really proud of how well they recycle!” said Snowy River Shire Council’s Waste Education Officer, Margie Ferguson.

“Recent random audits of the Shire’s recycling bins showed an amazingly low contamination amount of about 5 per cent!

These contaminants were mainly made up of plastic bags and non recyclable Styrofoam packaging. There are still opportunities for improvement, with recyclables ending up in our landfill because they are going in the red bin and not the yellow bin.”

“The audits also found there is still approximately 25 per cent of household recyclables unfortunately going into the landfill such as paper and cardboard, glass, plastic bottles and steel cans. It would be great if these resources could be recycled rather than doom them to a sad end in our landfill.”

“The great thing about coming along to the recycling expo is residents can find out about recycling and much more. This year there will be an awesome array of exhibitors including

solar energy solutions, Tumbleweed, Enviromentors, TerraCycle and Drum Muster, plus we have special guests Dirt Girl and Scrap Boy,” Ms Ferguson explained.

Planet Ark’s National Recycling Week, which runs from 10th to 16th November, highlights the environmental benefits of reuse and recycling programs, while making participation enjoyable and easy through a number of community events and programs.

Understanding which items can be recycled at the kerbside is the first step in establishing successful recycling habits.

Research suggests that contamination in recycling bins is not always due to a lack of care or concern, but rather due to genuine misunderstandings about what can be recycled.

A new report from Planet Ark, titled The Seven Secrets of Successful Recyclers and sponsored by the Australian Packaging Covenant, addresses the four materials that most confuse people and the common mistakes made.

Surprisingly, 50 per cent of people surveyed got at least one item wrong when asked if it is recyclable. For example, only 34 per cent of Australians know that empty aerosol cans are recyclable in their kerbside bins. One of the top explanations given for not recycling aerosols was a mistaken belief

that they will explode in the recycling.

“It’s surprising that more than half of Australians wrongly believe that aerosol cans can’t be recycled,” said Planet Ark’s Head of Campaigns, Brad Gray. “In fact, they are made from fully recyclable steel or aluminum.

Even though many people use aerosols everyday for products like deodorants they still hold on to old ideas. The research shows people report having been told to keep aerosol cans out of the recycling, which is a hangover from the past. Once they are empty it is perfectly safe to put them in the recycling.”

The survey also shows that 26 per cent of people sometimes or always put their recycling in a plastic bag, then into the bin.

However, items contained within the plastic bags end up being sent to landfill as the systems in the sorting facility can’t separate the various materials and the bags clog the machines. Recycling must be loose in the recycling bin to be sorted effectively.

T h e S e v e n Secrets of Successful Recyclers are: Know the facts; Don’t bag

it; Do it in the bathroom; Do it in public; Take it to work; Think outside the bin; and Buy it back.

Snowy River Shire residents can find local recycling options on the Snowy River Shire Council page of Planet Ark’s RecyclingNearYou.com.au website – a service which provides reuse, recycling and safe disposal information for a wide range of different materials.

Visit RecyclingWeek.PlanetArk.org website or call the National Recycling Hotline on 1300 733 712 for further information about any of Planet Ark’s National Recycling Week initiatives.

National Recycling Week is kindly supported by Major Sponsor the Australian Packaging Covenant and Associate Sponsors Rexona, Bingo and ‘Cartridges 4 Planet Ark’.

POST & RAIL

Wednesday November 12, 2014

the

postman calls

The Postman has to wonder about some motorists – like, for instance – how fast would someone be driving in Sharp Street on a Sunday night?

Obviously too fast to avoid hitting a kangaroo and apparently way too fast to stop and move the dead animal off the road.

It was probably lucky the kangaroo wasn’t a human pedestrian. Would the driver have stopped then, one wonders?

How does everyone feel about the change to the Bureau of Meteorology’s weather descriptions?

Whereas we once had scattered showers (or shattered scours, as The Postman has heard on occasion) now we have the very uninteresting ‘slight’ chance of rain.

A ‘medium’ chance of rain probably means prolonged drizzle. A ‘high’ chance of rain could mean floods.

It has really taken the colour out of weather reports. Are we still allowed to refer to ‘seven eights’ cloud cover, or has that become the drab and lacklustre ‘overcast’? We have a colourful language, why can’t we use it?

Do you support Lifeline? Well, so does Birdsnest and tomorrow, it being 13/11/14, the Lifeline telephone number, you can get a bargain while giving your support.

Birdsnest is giving a 14 percent discount on store purchases to everyone who donates $13 to Lifeline on the day.

Riposte Lisa Ashurst It’s not often I come close to choking on my brekkie over a newspaper article but such was the case while reading an item in one of the Sunday papers just recently where it was revealed that a youth, currently in gaol for his unprovoked one-punch attack on a Sydney teenager which resulted in the teen’s death, is arguing against his sentence having been doubled on an appeal.

Originally sentenced to five years and two months for unprovoked assaults on five young men in Kings Cross, the youth’s sentence was doubled on appeal following an angry response from sections of the community which supported the campaign by the dead teen’s family for tougher penalties in these cases. The Court of Criminal Appeal agreed, hence the youth’s sentence being increased. But this is not what caused the almost brekkie choke. What did that was the bit about the youth’s lawyers filing an application for special leave to appeal the decision on a number of grounds, the most infuriating being the appeal court’s “failure” to take into account that the youth was an “Aboriginal offender” who came from a “deprived background”. Forgive me for questioning this, but why should the court be required to take either into account at all? How is it even relevant? The bottom line here is that the youth likes to thump complete strangers in violent, unprovoked

attacks and one of his victims died as a result. This is all the court needed to know.

Sorry if this offends anyone, but I don’t really consider someone’s race or background as mitigating circumstances in a criminal instance and feel the youth’s lawyers are clutching at straws. Racial and/or cultural roots have no place as a valid defence for criminal activities in my opinion and “deprived background” also niggles because when it’s all said and done, regardless of how we were raised, we all have a reasonably basic understanding of what’s right and what’s not. This is why those who commit criminal acts (regardless of their background) conceal their activities. They know it’s wrong and therefore punishable by law. It’s also why, if caught, they will latch onto any defence that might get them out of trouble, despite how puerile, and I have a very low opinion of lawyers who scrabble around the bottom of the barrel in the hope of finding a lame excuse that just might stand up in court. I know it’s their job to defend their client but at some point they have to draw the line, surely.

The youth behind bars for this particular offence may feel the doubling of his sentence is unfair but what he did to his victims was even more so, especially in regard to the teen who died from the injuries he sustained as a result of the attack and the offender’s race, background and degree of alcohol consumption are no excuse. The attack was unprovoked.

The victim died.

End of story.

KNP goes fee-free The NSW Government is opening all national parks for free on November 15 and 16 to mark the 40th anniversary the National Parks and Wildlife Act. The Member for Monaro John Barilaro said the fee free weekend was a celebration of legislation that was crucial in protecting NSW’s natural and cultural heritage as well as our unique wildlife. “Next weekend will be a great opportunity for families in the Monaro to take advantage of the fee free weekend to explore our National Parks, including Kosciusko National Park, for a picnic, a walk or simply to drive through,� Mr Barilaro said. “The NSW Government has provided an additional $40 million to maintain our parks, enhance education and improve access. “We have created nine parks and provided $62.5 million to increase hazard reduction in national parks, including the employment of 94 additional fire-fighters.�

Environment Minister

Rob Stokes said NSW has grown its parks system from only one per cent of the total state in 1967 when the National Parks and Wildlife Service was first established, to 9 per cent of the state, or more than 7 million hectares. “It’s fitting that such an important milestone coincides with the World Parks Congress, where more than 4000 delegates from around the earth are here in Sydney to discuss how to best to manage our world’s protected areas,� Mr Stokes said. “The Congress brings together Presidents to park rangers, business executives to indigenous leaders – in a common endeavour to plan the future for terrestrial and marine parks and protected areas around the world. “From Border Ranges National Park in the north and Ben Boyd National Park in the south, from Sydney Harbour National Park out to Gundabooka we have amazing places on our doorstep, wherever we live.�

All vehicle fees will be waived for the state’s

46 fee charging parks, as well attraction fees to places such as La Perouse Museum, and the Sea Acres Rainforest boardwalk and landing fees at The Basin and Sydney Harbour Islands.

For more information about the fee free weekend in NSW national parks go to www.nationalparks.nsw. gov.au/Whats-On/feefree-weekend

CAT awards

An awards scheme recognising the contribution of amateur theatre groups in Canberra and throughout regional NSW for the past two decades, will receive much needed financial assistance from the NSW Liberals & Nationals Government.

Member for Monaro John Barilaro was joined

by Deputy Premier and Minister for the Arts Troy Grant to announce a $20,000 grant to help fund the Canberra Area Theatre (CAT) Awards.

Following the ACT Government’s decision to withdraw funding support for the CAT Awards, Mr Barilaro said the NSW Government was keen to ensure financial viability of the awards.

Mr Barilaro said the NSW Government is committed to supporting and developing theatre. “Amateur theatre might not be ‘avant-garde’ enough for the ACT Government to have any interest, however it is popular for regional communities and brings people together,� Mr Barilaro said. “This region in particular has cemented a growing reputation as a centre of cultural and artistic excellence and recognising the need to nurture artistic talent is just as important as celebrating and appreciating the work of established artists.�

Deputy Premier and Minister for the Arts Troy Grant said since the awards were founded in 1995, they have grown to become a major event in the theatrical calendar in the ACT and throughout NSW. “The event held in Canberra showcases a variety of theatrical productions and raises the profile of home grown talent,� Mr Grant said.

Monaro Early Intervention Service (MEIS)

Many, many thanks from MEIS Mick Boyce The chance to expand into the cottage next door was too good an opportunity to miss.

The growing number of children requiring MEIS services and our need to establish speech and occupational therapy as a permanent part of our service was our motivation.

Funds had to be raised in a hurry. The building cost $213,550 and the renovations have cost more than $80,000. The response from Monaro people across the three shires has been overwhelming.

From hundreds of handwritten letters asking for support the sum of $70,757 was raised very quickly.

Thank you Thank you, Monaro.

You are champions for a worthy cause. Please come and see the fruits of your generosity at the opening on November 14.

Thank you to those who have supported us by organising or participating in events such as the annual MEIS Charity Golf days, two Sip ‘n’ Swing big band nights, the trivia night run by the Snowy Mountains Motorcycle Club, the Defence Social Club collection, the CWA and the Nimmitabel Garden Club.

A special thanks to the e generous support given by Cooma Rotary Club who provided willing helpers in working bees but also a cheque for $12,000 for the project.

With that groundswell of support from the community, two charitable foundations and an electricity infrastructure company have provided very generous support to the project.

This sort of significant e support gets projects like this across the line.

Thank you to the Vincentt Fairfax Family Foundation, e the John T Reid Charitable Trusts and Transgrid.

Much of the renovationss were completed with phys-e ical labour from committee volunteers and help from m tradesmen and other mem-bers of the community.

Local businesses have e been generous in providing g advice and giving discountss on materials. We thankk each and every one who o has given of their time, effortt and equipment.

But most of all we thankk Chrissy Fitzgerald (long g serving committee member)) who has overseen this pro-ject from start to finish and d who has done the bulk off the painting and gardening.

Chrissy, this is your cottage.

Elsa, the Lego Man and an oversized bowling pin on display Elsa from Frozen was hands down the most popular character among kindergarten girls while an oversized bowling pin and a Lego man were some of the crowd favourites at Jindabyne Central School’s (JCS) Book Week parade.

A total of 432 JCS students from Kindergarten to Year Six donned costumes to be part of Book Week, Australia’s longest running children’s festival.

Students were asked to come dressed as a character from their favourite book and teachers joined in the festivities.

There were appearances from the classics

Photo Restorations?

including Peter Rabbit, Little Red Riding Hood, Pippi Longstocking and Where’s Wally, while some new characters also proved popular including Minecraft, Emmett from the Lego Movie novel and a huge bowling pin from the book Mitchell Goes Bowling.

JCS principal Debbie-Lee Hughes said she was impressed with the effort her students had made to come dressed as their favourite character.

“There were lots of unique characters and characters we haven’t seen before at Book Week parades,” said Ms Hughes.

“The students put in a great effort to dress up as their favourite book character.”

The theme for this year’s Book Week was Connect to Reading.

Nickelodeon duo, Luke and Wyatt, have recorded a how-to video available on AussieVault.com.au and are encouraging all primary school children to jump on board.

“The Little Aussie Songster’s competition is such a cool concept,” said Nickelodeon’s Wyatt. “Luke and I want to encourage as many kids as possible to enter!”

“Yeah, that’s why we made a super rad how-to video,” said Luke. “We want to hear the sound of every kid in the country singing along to the national anthem. From kids in NSW to SA, the louder and prouder the better.”

For The Voice 2014 Winner, Anja Nissen, Little Aussie Songsters is a great way for kids to show off their talent and win some great prizes.

It’s easy to show your national pride - To enter as an individual or to register as a group, visit AussieVault.com.au to read all the terms and conditions before you record your version of Advance Australia Fair and upload it via AussieVault.com.au.

New deal for Jindabyne Holiday Park Award-winning management group Australian Tourist Park Management (ATPM) has successfully tendered for the lease of local icon Jindabyne Holiday Park.

Snowy River Shire Council issued the lease agreement to ATPM last month, and they will officially take the reigns on 15 October.

ATPM Chairman Graham Henry thanked Council for the opportunity to manage and develop the park. “We are excited to bring more visitors to the region and provide local opportunities for the community,� he said. “Jindabyne Holiday Park suits ATPM’s ethos perfectly. Our philosophy is to provide exceptional holiday experiences, with a combination of fantastic environments, great hospitality and modern facilities.� “We are passionate about achieving this. Jindabyne is an iconic Australian town, overlooking a stunning lake and is close to several world-class ski resorts.

The park itself sits on the banks of Lake Jindabyne with amazing views from most of the accommodation and facilities.�

Mr Henry said ATPM was keen to work with other local tourism operators, attractions and eateries to bring more visitors to the region. “It’s impossible not to enjoy a holiday at Jindabyne and we aim to put the icing on the cake,� he said. “The park will offer free wireless internet to all guests, free kids activities during school holidays and many other extras such as free board game and DVD hire.� “We look forward to working with the local community and Council in welcoming guests, not only to Jindabyne Holiday Park, but to the amazing town of Jindabyne.�

Gold Coast-based ATPM has been managing and developing holiday parks across the country for 21 years, with 30 parks located across five Australian states.

Support for dementia drivers With an estimated one new case of dementia every six minutes in Australia, more information and resources are needed to help people driving with dementia and their families, according to the National Roads & Motorists’ Association and Alzheimer’s Australia.

The NRMA and Alzheimer’s Australia NSW will today launch a new free guide, Staying on the Move with Dementia, to help people with dementia to understand the impact the condition has on driving and help prepare them for life without a driver’s licence.

The guide also provides advice to the families of people with dementia so that they are better able to provide a support role.

The free guide is available on the NRMA community hub www. livingwellnavigator.com.au Dementia is one of the conditions that drivers are required by law to report to the Roads & Maritime Services.

While having dementia doesn’t automatically mean a person can no longer drive, it will require them to get a medical assessment and possibly undertake a practical driving test.

Dementia provides a raft of helpful measures around driving with dementia and alternatives for people when they can no longer drive. These include: - How to identify early warning signs that dementia may be affecting someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s driving - Advice on how to help the person deal with the condition and how to prepare them for the time when they can no longer drive - How to access alternative transport options when a person can no longer drive NRMA President Kyle Loades said with around one in 10 people over 65 and three in 10 over 85 living with dementia the nation needed to do more to prepare itself for the impact dementia would have on drivers and their families. â&#x20AC;&#x153;More and more Australians are diagnosed with dementia every day and some are as young as 30,â&#x20AC;? Mr Loades said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s critical that these people and their loved ones have all the information they need to make the right decisions around independent mobility and safety.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a nation we need to do more to help people prepare for the impact dementia will have on

their mobility and invest in more alternative transport options so that a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quality of life isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t impacted when they can no longer drive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why the NRMA and Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Australia have joined forces today to release Staying on the Move with Dementia.â&#x20AC;?

Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Australia NSW CEO The Hon. John Watkins said the issue of driving once there has been a diagnosis of dementia is a highly complex one and is often one that is fraught and emotional for everyone involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our members time and again tell us that this can be such a difficult and highly emotional issue,â&#x20AC;? Mr Watkins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We need to ensure the person with dementia is supported to remain independent and to keep driving for as long as it is safe to do so. And then we must make sure there is appropriate support and information available to the person and their family and carers to make what can be a really difficult transition from driver to non-driver as smooth as possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Staying on the Move with Dementia is an important tool to arm people with the information they need during what can be a difficult time,â&#x20AC;? he said.

New climate Electrical safety on the L.A.N.D dog Mojo works wet weather The latest addition to the Climatedog pack, Mojo, is out in the YouTube top paddock, http://youtu.be/eov0_LaMBVQ, showing farmers and weather buffs how the MaddenJulian oscillation can drive summer rainfall and affect local seasonal conditions.

NSW Department of Primary Industries (DPI) climate impacts and adaptation leader, Tim Sides, said as part of the Climatedogs animation series Mojo is helping the public understand the impacts of an important driver of summer rainfall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Madden-Julian oscillation is traditionally active during our monsoon period from November to April, which can lead to rain events in NSW,â&#x20AC;? Mr Sides said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mojo has been inactive during the 201314 monsoon period and farmers in parched summer cropping areas will be hoping Mojo can deliver much-needed rain to lift soil moisture reserves and dam levels this season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A sometimes working dog, Mojo, like his namesake, can be unpredictable, operating independently of climate dog Enso, the El Nino southern oscillation, another variable phenomena which impacts on our climate.â&#x20AC;?

In the Climatedogs kennel, Mojo and Enso are important drivers of our variable climate along with Ridgy - the subtropical ridge, Indy - Indian Ocean dipole, Sam - southern annular mode and Eastie - east coast low.

These often unruly climate dogs form a series of amusing animations which has been developed by NSW DPI, Victorian Department of Environment & Primary Industries and the Cotton Research and Development Corporation to explain complex climate drivers and atmospheric features.

The project worked closely with the Bureau of Meteorology with some funding assistance provided through the Australian Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Carbon Farming Initiative.

Get your Mojo back-in-behind and check out his kennel companions on the DPI website, http://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/ agriculture/resources/climate-and-weather/ variability/climatedogs The Madden-Julian oscillation can be tracked on the Bureau of Meteorology website, http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/mjo

Essential Energy has launched a new safety campaign across regional New South Wales urging landholders to follow some simple steps to minimise the risk of electrical accidents on their properties.

The L.A.N.D agribusiness safety mail-out offers some important safety advice for people who live and work in the 1,500 regional and rural communities serviced by Essential Energyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s electricity network.

Essential Energyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regional manager South Eastern, Phillip Green, said the L.A.N.D campaign would reach about 120,000 landholders and focus on four key safety messages: â&#x20AC;˘ Look Up and Live â&#x20AC;˘ Always be aware â&#x20AC;&#x201C; of the location of poles and wires in your working area â&#x20AC;˘ Need to know â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the height of your farm machinery, in both the raised and lowered position, so you can maintain the required safety clearance distances â&#x20AC;˘ Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disembark â&#x20AC;&#x201C; if machinery does come into contact with powerlines, stay in the vehicle where safe to do so. Remember the emergency escape procedure and call Essential Energy immediately on 13 20 80. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We appreciate that people in agribusiness face increasing pressure on their time however identifying potential hazards on

your property before starting work can help to minimise the risks associated with farming near overhead powerlines and other network infrastructure,â&#x20AC;? Phillip said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;One of the simplest steps that we recommend is checking the location of powerlines and marking them at ground level before beginning any farming activities on your property. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know firsthand the significant risks and danger involved when machinery contacts overhead powerlines â&#x20AC;&#x201C; thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vital that you maintain minimum safety clearance distances at all times.â&#x20AC;?

If machinery does contact powerlines, Essential Energy advises people to remain calm and stay in the vehicle until the power has been isolated and powerlines removed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t risk being electrocuted by disembarking from the vehicle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; only attempt an emergency evacuation as a last resort, such as if the vehicle is on fire,â&#x20AC;? Phillip said.

The L.A.N.D public safety pack contains details about how to order safety stickers and overhead electrical network maps that might assist landowners to identify risks on their properties or worksites.

For more agricultural electrical safety information, visit essentialenergy.com.au/safety or call Essential Energy on 13 23 91.

First step towards a stronger sector The Federal Government has released the Agricultural Competitiveness White Paper issues paper, marking an important step towards a more profitable and competitive agricultural sector, says National Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Federation (NFF) President, Brent Finlay.

The White Paper - a strategic mapping tool for the future - will identify pathways and approaches for increasing farm profitability, and boosting agricultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contribution to economic growth, trade, innovation and productivity.

Mr Finlay says the release of the issues paper, contains nine key points that are essential to the industryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s future â&#x20AC;&#x201C; ranging from food security, to improving farm gate returns, to enhancing agricultural exports, to the effectiveness of incentives for investment and job creation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s release of the issues paper is just what we wanted to see â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the first step in making agriculture a priority in this country. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Realising agricultureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vast potential is key, and the NFF strongly supports the Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commitment to set stable, long-term policies to improve productivity and growth of our

dynamic industry. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The NFF looks forward to working with the Government on the White Paper, and to develop a strategy clearly focused on real improvements for our sector,â&#x20AC;? Mr Finlay said.

Underpinning the White Paper is the NFF-led, industrydeveloped Blueprint for Australian agriculture. In the past 12 months, industry leaders and key decision makers have worked together to continue turning the Blueprint findings into real action. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our work on the Blueprint has identified key priorities. These include: measures that drive improved farm profitability; better drought management policies; improved arrangements that drive investment in the sector; reduction of the regulatory burden on the agriculture sector; and ways to continue to improve agricultural exports and new market access. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We fully support todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s release of the issues paper as the first step towards a commitment to action beyond the talk, for a strong and sustainable future for agriculture in this country,â&#x20AC;? Mr Finlay said.

Farmers want unified farm representation Farmers across Australia want their advocacy efforts to be streamlined and strengthened through a more unified model of representation, a report on farm representation has found.

The report, Newgate Review into the Future of Farm Sector Representation was released at the National Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Federation (NFF) National Congress in Canberra.

The report is based on exhaustive research of grass roots farmers and is the start

of a broader process on how the agriculture sector should adapt to optimize farmer representation.

NFF President Brent Finlay said the report recommended that the agricultural sector unify, reduce duplication and adapt to changes in the modern agricultural environment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The challenge now is for the farm sector to act on the reviewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendations, determine what transition to

a more unified model might look like and identify a realistic timeframe and process for implementing change,â&#x20AC;? Mr Finlay said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Between now and March next year, NFF and its 30 member organisations will systematically explore and discuss how we can adopt a more unified model of representation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about working together for the long term benefit of the farm sector and ensuring the community, media and government understand and value the importance of our contribution to the Australian economy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We said from the beginning this wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be another report to sit on the shelf gathering dust.

The momentum is building and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to keep pushing for change - our farmers deserve the best possible

representation going into the future. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve established working groups to ensure wide consultation in our sector and this process will ensure everyone has an opportunity to engage and have their say.

We will be as inclusive and transparent as possible. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Engagement is not about critiquing the reportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recommendations, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about working together to produce better options and outcomes.

Hard decisions will need to be made by every part of the sector, but as a sector we should have no illusions, the status quo is not an option change is on its way,â&#x20AC;? Mr Finlay said.

A website has been established for farm sector stakeholders to read the findings of the Newgate Review and learn more about how they can engage with the working groups.

Between November this year and March 2015, working groups established through the review process will consult with member and non-member organisations on what a new unified approach may look like.

The 28 registered bidders attending Greendale Merino sale on October 29 were focused on securing quality merino sheep genetics.

The rams catalogued for sale showed great depth and quality and a total clearance was achieved on the day for the 79 rams on offer to average $1608.

Buyers attended from Corowa, Holbrook, Goulburn, Alectown, Pambula, Seymour Victoria and a number of Monaro clients.

Wathonga Partnership, Cooma, purchased the top price ram for $3750.

The lot 5 ram had ASBV figures of -2.3 YFD, +19.8 YCFW and an MP+ index of 164.

Second top price went to new clients J, L & A Miners of Adaminaby, who took home one of the heaviest rams in the catalogue with a BWT of 86kg for $3400.

Jim and Claire Buckley from Jindabyne were after some of the higher performing rams in the sale.

Using ASBVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s they selected three rams with average figures of -2.1YFD, +20.3YCFW and an MP+ index of 161 for an average price of $2916.

Amandri Group â&#x20AC;&#x153;Biggamâ&#x20AC;?, Berridale, bought six at $1166, and Muerer Pastoral Co, Holbrook, buying five at an average of $860.

The majority of other purchasers at the sale secured two or three rams each.

Greendale Merinos offer clients wanting to improve profitability, within their own flocks, a genetic package of high fleece weights and low micron wool.

This is validated with clientsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; performances of highly profitable results in a number of Comparison Trials.

By providing information from data collected on fleece weight, micron and growth to Sheep Genetics, Greendale Merinos have been able to provide clients with ASBVs to further identify the right sheep and predictability of the ramâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s progeny to meet their breeding objectives.

The McGufficke families would like to thank all buyers and under bidders on the day for their support.

The sale was conducted by Auctioneer, Steve Ridley through Elders Cooma.

Electrofishing Field Day at Numeralla lands some big fish On Sunday November 2, Numeralla Landcare organised a demonstration of an Electrofishing boat to electro fish one hole of water on the Numeralla River.

After an interesting presentation at the Numeralla hall where Woo Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly (facilitator of Upper Murrumbidgee Waterwatch) and Antia Brademann (Upper Murrumbidgee Demonstration Reach facilitator) spoke of their work on the upper Murrumbidgee and a background on the new Feral Fish Scan (carp portal) which is to be launched by the Minster in the coming weeks.

Mark Lintermans (University of Canberra fish ecologist) gave a presentation on all relevant fish species that are or were in the upper Murrumbidgee River and tributaries.

An interested and well attended crowd then proceeded to a local water hole on the Numeralla River where Mark Linterman and Ben Broadhurst launched the electrofishing boat and demonstrated how the electro fishing worked.

The data collected will give everybody a base as to the next step for planning future work to help rejuvenate the Numeralla and surrounding rivers.

Numeralla is a known breeding ground for European carp.

The Numeralla community over the last

10 years have been working on reducing European carp numbers.

The reintroduction of native Murray Cod and Golden Perch over the past six years has seen an average of 6,000 fingerlings stocked per year.

Efforts of stabilising banks, tree planting, re-introducing fish habitat, weed control, willow removal, and Mud Marlin Competitions, have all been performed to lessen the impact of European carp and establish native fish numbers.

This will improve water quality and recreational fishing and, in the long term, improve the river system up and downstream of Numeralla and into the Murrumbidgee River.

The proposed next step, when funds are raised, is to electro fish three more waterholes, one on the lower Kybeyan, one on the lower Badja and the third on the Numeralla.

The new biological control for European carp, Koi Herpesvirus, due to be released in 2018 has the potential to substantially reduce European carp numbers by 70 percent when released. The Numeralla community hope to have healthy fish numbers to compete with the remaining European carp.

Each year a Mud Marlin Competition is

held to remove as many European carp as possible.

The 2014 Mud Marlin competition yielded 1,802 European carp caught over the week long competition.

This would not be possible if not for the collaborated a p p r o a c h of Numeralla Fishing club, Numeralla Landcare, ACTEW AGL, NSW Fisheries, Upper Murrumbidgee Demonstration Reach, Waterwatch, Crown Lands, the former Murrumbidgee Catchment Management Authority, Cooma-Monaro Shire Council and volunteers.

An especially big thank you goes out to the sponsors of the annual Mud Marlin Fishing Competition, whose contribution provides much sought after prizes at each years competition.

Pictured, a big carp and a smaller brown trout which was released.

Cooma Probus October speaker – Dr Wiles (Continued from last edition) Thus, our current models are making hard work of explaining the evidence presented by our information analysis so far…what can we do?

Well, we could do with a better model as the current ones cannot explain the information in the first cell nor in the process of speciation; information that is clearly present when we investigate living things. But where should we begin? This is where the analysis of information can help us. We have seen from the requirements for our first cell that information is necessary to specify the material elements of our first organism if it is to exist and reproduce but that organism also required non-material elements too. This principle of both material and non-material entities is fundamental to understanding information and our existence.

However, we now need to switch from the information within life to the information within the Universe at large. It is generally recognised by cosmologists that our Universe is finely-tuned by its laws and constants, without which it would not exist in a stable form that could support life. The “Goldilocks Zone” within our Solar System is one example of this fine-tuning. Have people heard of the Goldilocks Zone?

Basically, for life to exist on Earth, water must be in its aqueous phase, that is as a liquid. If the Earth was 5% closer to the sun, the oceans would evaporate (global warming on a ferocious scale) and if it was 20% further away from the sun, the oceans would freeze and life could not exist on Earth (endless ice age). So the Earth

occupies a very privileged piece of galactic real estate.

More than 100 examples of fine tuning have been described to date. All these laws and parameters are described by information. But where did the information come from and how did they become so finely balanced to create a stable universe?

In the words of former Cambridge cosmologist, Professor Paul Davies, “No one knows.” Oxford Professor of Physics, David Deutsch has proposed a “Multiverse” where there are trillions upon trillions upon trillions of universes and we just happen to live in the one that turned out right.

However this hypothesis still does not explain where the information came from.

Although we don’t have time to go into it in detail now, the microscopic realm of the atom and fundamental particles is also finely tuned. But we are still on the hunt for the source of the information.

Now information auditing shows that the whole universe is a mathematically encoded, digital entity described by information. This is the reason that the Laws of the Universe (such as gravity) are best written as mathematical equations and why computers are so phenomenally useful. But where did the information come from? We all know from school that a coherent essay didn’t appear in our homework overnight unless we wrote it (the homework fairy is a myth!) Similarly in the Universe, meaningful information needs to be specified by some process. The basic information flows within the physical Universe can be tracked and require a Physical Information Generator. We haven’t

got time to analyse it now but this process is very similar to the Biological Information Flows in life but in living things we need a Biological Information Generator.

So as we drill down to find the source of the information, what is there to find? For nearly 100 years, Energy, matter & time have been considered to be fundamental entities in the universe but it can be seen that they are all specified by information.

Thus we can describe an Information Model of the Universe that has both material and non-material elements. I call this the “Compound Model”. ….And so what is the relevance of all this information?

From your school or university studies, you might think that we understand most of our universe but there is still a lot to learn. Despite the protestations of some scientists like Richard Dawkins, there are many non-material entities lacking good explanations such as: thought, mind, selfawareness, memory, conscience, the fabric & laws of the Universe to name but a few. All these appear to be non-material – certainly they are intangible. Most of these have a less than satisfactory explanation from an exclusively materialistic point of view or frame of reference but if we recognise that non-material information is the fundamental entity of the Universe and entertain the concept of a Compound Model of the Universe that has both material and non-material elements, the explanatory power is profound!

In Conclusion: Information is required to describe the Universe – but the origin of that information is obscure. We have seen that both Biological and Physical

Information Generators are required to account for the Information in the Universe but since they must have worked sequentially, Ockham’s Razor would suggest that they were one and the same entity which I have denoted the “Universal Information Generator”. The origin and identity of that is outside of science but interesting to ponder. For the NeoDarwinist it is the Neo-Darwinian Synthesis and the Big Bang although we have seen that they lack the mechanisms to generate meaningful information. The Intelligent Designers will opt for Intelligent Design, be it Aliens or otherwise although then their information has to be explained too.

Theists will posit God. If you have another explanation, please contact me. I would like to know!

So the Universe is a digitally-defined, information-based entity written in the language of mathematics; but this concept is not new. More than 2 millennia ago, Euclid said: “The laws of nature are but the mathematical thoughts of God.” Thus, I present to you an Information Model of the Universe and commend it to you for your thoughtful consideration. If you want more details, you can consult my book: The Information Paradox in the Cooma Library or for sale at the bookshop or Sharp Street Surgery.

Thank you, Doc, some of us scratched our heads, some bought your book, but we all enjoyed your talk even if we echoed Peter’s comment on Paul’s letters –“ some of what (he) says is hard to understand. “

Spring clean your kitchen – and your energy bill A noisy fridge, a dirty stove top, and an oven that smokes every time you bake are not the components of an ideal kitchen. Spring is a great time to revive this important room in your home – and in doing so you could save money on your energy bills.

Origin’s Energy Expert, Anne Armansin says, “If you’re planning a spring clean this year, why not tackle the kitchen too! It’s not about getting rid of everything old and breaking the bank with upgrades, it’s about showing some TLC to the appliances that aren’t performing as efficiently as they should be and making savings to your energy consumption.”

“Most major appliances are expected to be operational for at least ten years, with well maintained units performing their primary function for up to twenty years. There are some really simple things households can do to ensure appliances are operating as efficiently as they should be - it’s just a matter of knowing what these things are.”

According to Anne, here’s how you can help ensure kitchen appliances are operating as efficiently possible: Food for thought when it comes to the fridge Anne says, “Fridges and freezers are the biggest energy users in most kitchens. The cost of excess energy used by faulty refrigerators can really add up.

We’ve measured energy consumption of fridges in customers’ homes on numerous occasions and in one home, the cost of wasted energy was $1.63 per day – that’s around $600 a year!1” • Adjust thermostats to maintain the temperature between 2°C and 5°C in the fridge, and between -15°C and -18°C in the freezer • Listen to your fridge. Manufacturers advise that refrigeration compressor units should only cycle on about 30% of the day, so if you have a fridge that sounds like it’s continually running, it’s time for a health check • Faulty door seals can allow cold air to escape your fridge or freezer cabinet and make your fridge work too hard. Check seals by placing a piece of paper between the door and the seal and then pulling on the paper. If it moves easily, you need to replace the seals • Ice build-up of more than 6mm in your freezer can

act as an insulator, hampering the cooling process.

Check regularly and defrost if necessary • Fridges and freezers operate at peak efficiency when full, so choose one that’s the right size for your needs • Turn off, empty, clean and leave the doors open when you are away for an extended period • Check the age of your fridge. Refrigeration energy efficiency standards have improved the performance of units by 40% for units manufactured between 1993 and 2006 1 Comparison of a faulty 500L unit, measured at a continuous power consumption of 300W (7.2 kWh per day) with an average MEPS 2005 compliant, 500 Litre fridge/freezer (1.37 kWh per day). Electricity costed at 28¢ per kWh Avoid the dreaded ‘dish-duty’ Anne says, “Dishwashers are considered essential in many homes, particularly those with teenage children.

Not only are they cheaper to use once a day than washing up by hand three times a day, they’re also likely to clean each load more quietly and efficiently.”

• Dishwashers offer several programs and their energy rating labels are based on a ‘normal program’ with low wash temperatures, usually between 40 ̊C and 50 ̊C. Energy costs are currently between about twenty and thirty cents per load depending on your machine2 • Greasy and more heavily soiled items can be cleaned using a ‘pots and pans’ or ‘heavy cycle’ setting.

These more intensive programs may heat wash water to temperatures between 55 ̊C and 75 ̊C, have more rinse cycles with an energy cost per load between about forty-five and sixty cents3 • Try and run your dishwasher at full capacity where possible. If it takes days to fill up, use the rinse cycle at least once a day which costs less than about two cents for most models4 • When empty, ensure filters are clean and free of obstructions • Leaky hoses may cause your kitchen to flood.

Check hoses for wear and tear and have old, cracked ones replaced before they fail • Connect your dishwasher to cold water – it is cheaper to run than using hot water Switch off bench-

top appliances Smaller bench top appliances like electric kettles and toasters, and some larger ones such as blenders and food processors are relatively low-energy users due to their short operational times.

However, remember to turn appliances like this off at the wall when not in use and be mindful of energy use (listed on the compliance plates) when making new purchases. Be a cool cook! Smart use of these appliances is all that’s needed to save energy: Oven & cooktop• Preheat your oven for no longer than 20 minutes • If you’re using a fan forced oven, reduce energy use by cooking on multiple levels simultaneously – that’s your spuds, your roast, your apple crumble, all in one!

• Plan ahead and cook several freezer friendly meals at once • Don’t bake in grime - clean up fresh spills as soon as your oven has cooled • Try to keep the oven door completely closed until food is cooked. Every time the door is opened, the oven temperature drops by about 14° - 20°C • Replace the 50 W halogen lamps in your range hood with 6 Watt LED lamps • Keep your stovetop clean - spills can clog gas jets, creating an uneven flame • Be sure pots and pans completely cover hotplates to avoid wasting energy • It’s best to cook with lids on pots and pans.

You’ll achieve better cooking results, including less evaporation, as well as reducing steam and cooking smells in the kitchen Microwave• Keep clean and ensure inside table turns when operating (if designed to) • Turn the unit off at the wall when not in use and save on standby power • Don’t over heat items and ruin food or containers • Only use dishes that are identified ‘suitable to microwave’ While you’re at it why not make your new favourite spring meal an energy-friendly one! This delicious Shredded Chicken and Asian Noodle Salad from Alison Alexander only uses a small amount of energy, but is by no means short on flavour!

Kayakers highlight importance of Snowy River environmental flows A group of four kayakers made the most of the recent Snowy River environmental flows from Jindabyne Dam by completing a four day paddling adventure from the ‘McLaughlin River Junction to the Barry Way’ between October 15 - 18.

The 83km kayak journey passed through spectacular mountain country within the Byadbo Wilderness Area and Kosciusko National Park.

During this time, we encountered rugged gorges, large waterfalls, gentle flat sections, abundant wildlife, towering cliffs and challenging white water rapids up to grade 4.

It was humbling to travel part of the Snowy River song line, that indigenous Australians had used as part of their annual migration from the mountains to the sea.

Each summer, the large Bogong Moths would swarm to the rocky Alpine caves, and gather

like roofing tiles with many thousands to the square meter of rock. At this time, and for thousands of years, indigenous groups from far and wide, would follow the river valleys to the alps, and using kangaroo skins as blankets, scoop up the moths in large masses and then roast on hot coals.

In later years, Banjo Patterson immortalized the Snowy River through his poetry works, that then inspired the all time classic ‘Man from Snowy River’ movie.

We carried all our personal, food, camping and safety gear in the kayaks and camped on sandy beaches nestled besides the river. While most rapids could be paddled safely, we portaged around some dangerous cataracts including Currawong Falls and Snowy (Jimenbuen) Falls. Both of these waterfalls were off-the-radar stuff, and consisted of churning whitewater among

some super steep topography.

While on the river, we monitored and mapped pest plant and feral animal populations that could be used to help with future catchment management works. There were big mobs of goat, up to 50 in one mob, some wild horses and evidence of pig and deer.

Environmental flows are a ‘win win’ outcome for both recreational use and for waterway health. More flows enable more people to be able to enjoy this iconic asset from paddlers, fishing groups, campers and naturalists.

The group are hopeful of inspiring a ‘Snowy River Paddling Festival’ that could coincide with environmental flows during October when the spring thaw is taking place. Paddlers from around the world, in canoes, kayaks and rafts, could visit, learn about, and participate in river trips along the Snowy River’s entire 500km length.

There is a plethora of world class paddling across all skill levels on the Snowy, from the challenging upper reaches around Charlotte Pass, down through Buchan, and on to the SNOWY MOUNTAINS NSW flat water sections and river mouth near Marlo. Such a festival could stimulate tourism and inject money into the local economy, and at the same time, assist the river to get back to good health.

has had a devastating effect on the Snowy as the once free flowing wild river was reduced to a trickle with a series of pools often separating the rocky gorges and sandy flats.

Under the full sun, these shallow pools became warm and stagnant and algal blooms blossomed, this fouling the water and reducing biodiversity such as fish, amphibian, reptile, invertebrate and mammal populations.

Introduced noxious weeds such as Willows (Salix species) and Blackberries began to thrive in the altered landscape and they often outcompeted the indigenous flora along the riparian (river side) zone. Willows chocked the waterway as their elevated roots created mini dams in the minuscule flow. This exacerbating erosion by forcing water up, over and around the foreign roots to then flow on downstream. Although resilient by nature, the Snowy River was dying a painful death.

Thanks to many years of campaigning by groups like the Snowy River Alliance and Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF), the river is being revived and is slowly bouncing back.

More water has been allocated for environmental flows, and broad scale community education programs have had a profound impact on how we, as a nation, value and treat our precious rivers.

Pest plant and animal eradication programs are in place and water quality is improving, this increasing biodiversity.

The Snowy River now receives about 15% of its pre-dam average annual flow, and has come a long way after 40 years of a diverted flow. Still, it’s a long way off the 28% promised in 2002 in a joint initiative by the Commonwealth, NSW and Victorian Governments.

The kayakers would like to thank the Snowy River Alliance, Australian Conservation Foundation (ACF), Environment Victoria, Southern Rivers CMA, Landcare and Willow Warriors for their assistance in river conservation.

Exciting Summit to Surf Rally In perfect weather, ninety drivers and cars from all over NSW and southern Queensland had a great weekend over the 8-9 November punching their cars over some of South-east NSW’s best drivers’ roads.

‘First and foremost, the weekend was about driving.

Saturday’s run was from Cooma to Bombala and on to Boydtown, returning to Bombala and on to Cooma via The Snowy River Way and Maffra Road. The two outstanding sections of road were a great “rip” (more correctly described as a tour) through the forest down the Imlay Road, and a great drive up along The Snowy River Way with some outstanding views of the Boco Rock Windfarm.

Sunday’s run was from Cooma to Adaminaby with time to inspect the Adaminaby Snowy Scheme Museum, on to

Lake Crackenback Resort and returning to Cooma. This day’s run also included another great “tour” along the Middlingbank Road, Rocky Plains Road and Eucumbene Road.

The weekend also included excellent morning teas in Bombala and Adaminaby, good lunches in Boyd Town and Crackenback, and a Saturday night presentation dinner at Cooma Car Club.

There were some beautiful and outstanding vehicles “on show” which included two Ford GT 40 replicas, two Cobra Daytona replicas, and some great Jaguars – an XK 150S F.H.C, two E Types and a Mark II. There was a total of 27 AC Cobra replicas – and the drivers of these spectacular roadsters “hunt in a pack”…. they would have provided

a great spectacle with accompanying sound track as they “toured” down the Imlay Road.

Mark Hudson, the president of the Cobra Car Club of NSW thanked the organisers and volunteers at the presentation dinner. He also made special mention of the assistance provided to Cobra Club members on the Friday night before the rally, by Kel Goodman who opened his workshop so that the Club members could work on a broken down Cobra, and by Robert Stroud who opened up his employer’s shop (Mack’s Auto) after hours to collect some parts needed for the repair. Mark made the point that that kind of hospitality and extra effort simply wouldn’t happen in the city.

Abocve left: Ian Hampton poses with the oldest car in the rally, his Peugeot 203 - 1951 model.

Above right: Lyn Kelleher from Crookwell poses with her Porsche 911, this was her and her husband’s first year at the rally.

Cooma women bowlers enjoy Melbourne Cup roll up What a great day we had at the club, the weather was just right with 22 bowlers turning up for a game of mixed bowls in the morning.

Rink 2: M. Zasso, D. Russell and I. Rees battled it out with the Meillon’s (Cheryl and Mick) and P. Harris. It was great to see Mick back bowling and welcome to Innes, we sure hope you enjoyed your day. Margherita’s team came scrambling home 19-16, with Innes winning the lead prize.

Rink 3: R. Roberson, R. Wainwright, M. D’Amico

played an all women’s side of O. Jebbink, E. Hamilton, M. Obermaier. Unfortunately for the girls Red must have been in control of his game, or was it his helpers? Red won the game 24-8, as well as winning skip prize and Mary the losing lead prize.

Rink 4: L. Theobald, M. Hilton (welcome back to bowls also), G. D’Amico (18) played J. Locker, R. Steinfort, L. Snell (14) and had another close game, with Mary winning the second’s prize and Leonie the losing skip one.

Rink 5: the Adaminaby girls trio of T. Sanders , L. McMahon and L. Waters were joined by our own amazing Simon Schoon, back playing again at almost 92, who showed great winning skills paired with Luba to win 2510.

Thank you to Skip and Red for organising the sweeps, a great job boys, also to bar staff, and everyone else who helped to make it such a enjoyable and successful Cup Day, whether you were a winner or loser.

Alpine ultra marathon Bocce Club’s annual Cooma Cup

Next Wednesday morning, two athletes will begin an Alpine ultra marathon challenge.

Australian adventurer Kyle Williams and veteran Victorian ultra marathoner Jamie Smith will attempt a world first 70km ultra marathon adventure through the Snowy Mountains, incorporating climbing the 21 highest mountain peaks over 2,000 metres in the Main Range.

This challenge is unique, being part ultra marathon and part adventure.

Kyle and Jamie will need to navigate and run their own route over 70 km of mostly off-trail snow terrain in unpredictable alpine weather whilst gaining over 4,000 metres of elevation and climbing 21 different mountain peaks.

Kyle Williams is no stranger to record breaking challenges. In November 2013, Kyle set a world record by becoming the first person to climb all 26 of Australia’s highest mainland mountains nonstop, hiking 130 km across the Snowy Mountains in 48 hours straight (The

A2k Challenge).

Jamie Smith is a well regarded veteran Victorian ultra marathoner, with over 21 successful ultra marathons under his belt including finishing the tough The North Face 100 kilometres ultra on three occasions, as well setting the Fastest Known Time (FKT) for the 67 kilometre Gippsland Plains Rail Trail Run. Kyle said “This will be my first ever ultra marathon and what a way to do it! It will be a tough, uncompromising challenge with no crowds or trophies, just simply two mates pitting themselves against the will of the Australia’s toughest mountains to challenge their limits and create an ultra running first.”

“I love being in the Snowy Mountains and I love the challenge running long distances provides. This run is so unique being both part ultra and part adventure - I can’t wait to take on this pioneering ultra test,” Jamie said.

Pictured, Kyle and Jamie on a training run.

Cooma Gun Club shoot Last Saturday 32 shooters from Bega, Bombala, Eden, Bermagui, Canberra, Tumut and Cooma Gun Clubs, attended Cooma Gun Club’s monthly D.T.L. (down the line) shoot.

The weather was fine, sunny and without wind. This month, the program was 25 target double barrel graded cash divide and 75 target champion of champions (25 target double barrel, 25 target single barrel & 25 target point score).

These two events were shot from 18 metres, not the usual 15 metres making it more difficult for competitors. The event was shot this way to simulate state and national events rules.

Good news for bowlers The Country Club board has decided that, commencing Saturday November 8, Green Fees are reduced to $7 for a trial period of two months as it is felt that the higher fee of $9 could be a contributing factor in the drop off in attendance of Social Bowlers.

If this move proves successful it is proposed to keep Green Fees at the lower rate after the trial.

Bowlers, the bowl is now on your rink, In Wednesday Bowls last week Alan Crowe, Mario Frezza and Fred Smith kept Judy Locker, Bob Douglas and Kevin Jackson on four shots for six ends to lead 11/4 and just held on to win 15/14.

Sergio Roncelli, Mary Phillips and Bob Lahy trailed Ken Rees, Mick Mayhew and Leonie Snell 13/15 with three ends to play.

Eight shots over those ends to Bob’s team gave them victory 21/15.

Did the substitution of former member Nelson Wallace for Sergio Roncelli have something to do with it?

Russell Fox, Keith Goodwin and Renate Winckel trailed Max Butler, Mike Mannile and Cheryl Meillon in the early stages then hit the front 15/10 on end 17.

Twelve shots over the remaining four ends to Cheryl’s team gave them a good win 22/15. Dot Jackson and Ron Wainwright ran into an inform Daphne Buckley and Peter Harris to trail 8/17 before eventually going down 20/27.

The new Green Fee brought mixed comment from Saturday Bowlers, and it will be a great help to the Bowls Organiser on the day if people have the correct amount thus overcoming a change problem.

Max Butler and Leonie Snell had the best of the running in their match with Mary Phillips and Fred Smith, in fact it was not until the last end that Mary and Fred took the lead to win 16/15.

Guess that is the best time to hit the front.

Keith Goodwin, Steve Lapham and Renate Winckel had slightly the better of the running for thirteen ends against Mary Obermaier, Bob Douglass and Rulie Steinfort but dropped five shots on end 14

and never recovered to go down 15/21.

Mike Mannile and Sergio Roncelli were looking at a big score against them when they trailed Colin Whiting and Mario Frezza 6/18 and then 14/22. Two fives to Mike and Sergio brought them to the front 24/23, but they were unable to deliver the knockout punch with Colin and Mario winning 27/25.

No Social Bowls on Sunday as Round three in Monaro Clubs Challenge had to be transferred to Cooma.

On Saturday play in the Challenge continued at Nimmitabel with Cooma playing Adaminaby and Jindabyne against Nimmitabel.

Adaminaby v Cooma: Adaminaby won the pairs two sets to nil, the triples in a tiebreaker, and the fours also in a tiebreaker.

Jindabyne v Nimmitabel: Jindabyne won the pairs two nil, the triples two nil, and the fours in a tiebreaker.

On Sunday Adaminaby played Nimmitabel and Jindabyne played Cooma.

Adaminaby won the pairs two sets to nil, the triples one set and one drawn, and topped it off winning the fours two sets to nil. Cooma v Jindabyne. Cooma won all three rinks two sets to nil.

The final point score for the event after three rounds was Adaminaby 22 points, Cooma 19, Jindabyne 10 and Nimmitabel 2. Congratulations to Adaminaby who played consistent bowls throughout the event for a well deserved win.

Next Sunday play will commence in the Cooma Club Fours with first round matches in the Morning (9:30am start) with winners continuing in the afternoon and morning losers also playing in a “Plate” event in the afternoon, so everyone will get at least two games .

With Green Fees reduced now is a good time to introduce new Bowlers. The Club can lend sets of bowls for a trial period and tuition is available if required. Contact Keith Goodwin any evening on 6452 2105.

Great spring conditions for monthly medal

by Garry Atkinson Once again golf over the last week has seen fine scoring with golfers requiring 40 points or more to be in the running for prizes.

The greens are in magnificent condition and so putting is nearly a pleasure! Junior golf has now begun and the Friday chook run has more birds than players, so come along and win a prize.

A grade monthly medal winner on Saturday was Garry Atkinson with 39 points on a countback from long hitting Mark Salmon, a visitor from St. Georges Basin Golf Club.

Ken Ganya won the B grade monthly medal with 68 nett and Allan Kelly took out the C grade medal with 68 points.

Ball winners went to 71 nett with Darren Hedger just scraping home.

Nearest the pin prizes were taken out with very accurate shots by Mark Salmon on the ninth and Jim Caldwell on the 17th.

On Sunday an individual stableford medley was played, with Sam Patricks having a great round to collect first prize with 41 points.

Ball winners went down to John Gargett with 36 points.

Nearest the pin on the ninth went to Brian Searl and John Gargett took out the 17th – both players had great shots, nice and close.

On Wednesday the men’s single stableford saw some great scores

with Campbell Childs top scoring with 39 points in A grade.

Jeff Burgess has really hit some form of late and took out B grade with the best round of the week - a massive 44 stableford points.

C grade was taken out by Heikki Evans with 37 points.

Ball winners went to 33 points with Geoff Bohringer just getting home.

Nearest the pin on the ninth was taken out by Campbell Childs and on the 17th Bill Dyball hit a beauty to easily win the ball prize for being the closest.

Next week sees the Klein Trophy mixed stableford on Saturday as well as an individual stableford, an individual stableford on Wednesday and the Super Stableford shootout on Sunday.

Another interesting competition week coming up.

Junior golf has now started so any members who can lend a hand on Sundays at 2pm are encouraged to come along and, of course, junior golfers are invited to join the group.

Don’t forget the very social nine hole chook run on Friday afternoons anytime from 4pm onwards.

You don’t need a handicap just a hankering for chook.

It really is a great way to finish up the week and warm up for the weekend.

See you on the greens.

Berridale tennis news Summer Night Competition between Jindabyne & Berridale Rules for Night Competition are two serves each and best of eight games and final scores are calculated on total games won by each team. Monday November 3, the two Berridale teams met first up with the Herefords beating the Angus team 49 games to 47 in a close match.

Playing for the Highlanders was Virginia Logan, Noelene Diacono, Renae Brockbut, Bronwyn Thompson, Michael Hedger, Gordon Griffin, Hamish Grant and Peter Woodall.

Berridale vs Snowy Young Ones on Saturday 8 November We knew we were in for a hot day of tennis with Cooma predicted to reach 30 degrees, but it turned out to be a scorcher as the Young Ones ripped through the (shall we say more experienced) Berridale team.

I am happy to write that BERRIDALE WON - (one set that is)! Yes, it was a sound thrashing by the Snowy Young Ones. At half

time they w e r e ahead 7 sets, 44 games to 1 set, 21 games.

Afternoon tea was delicious and a rest under the shady trees very welcome before it was back into it for the mixed doubles.

Playing for Berridale was Wendy Bruce, Kathleen Parkyn, Angela Field, Margie Wade, Tony Edwards, Anthony Wellsmore, Gordon Griffin and Tony Hayes. The Young Ones team consisted of Daphne, Victor, Patrick and Kevin Fraser, Malcolm and daughter Erin

Pearce (playing at No.1 for the ladies) and mum and daughter Jenni and Amy Fraser.

There was no joy for Berridale in the mixed doubles as the Young Ones won the day convincingly by 15 sets, 93 games to 1 set, 34 games. Thanks to Wendy and Angela for our one set and welcome to Tony Edwards from the night comp now playing as our No.1 man on Saturdays.

Monaro rep team wins one, loses one in Konica Cup The Monaro rep season got under way in earnest on Sunday when the Cooma Toyota MDCA Konica Cup side travelled to Queanbeyan and then the ANU to play in round one and two of the Konica Cup. The first match was played at Freebody 1, the number two ranked ground in the ACT. With a lightning fast outfield on offer, the Monaro batsman were licking their lips until they checked out the wicket which was very damp largely thanks to a sprinkler malfunction the previous night.

Batting was going to be quite difficult on the damp wicket and when Monaro won the toss bowling was the only option.

Monaro got off to a great start with Lochie Schofield (1-19) getting the early wicket and with Jack Parkyn (0-19) bowling a great line and length really strangling the Queanbeyan innings.

Mitch Clarke (4-23) was bought into the

attack and with Queanbeayan looking to lift the run rate Mitch took full toll with the ball, picking up two quick wickets.

Queanbeyan batsman P Moore (52) was the thorn in Monaro’s side, scoring a run a ball 50 before a nice catch from Damo Hayden off the bowling of Simon Walsh (1-22) ended his innings.

Queanbyean failed to rally in the final overs mainly thanks to tight bowling and some outstanding fielding from Monaro saw Queanbeayn finish on 9/115.

Monaro took to the crease with plenty of confidence which quickly evaporated with Monaro slumping to 3/28 with J Knowles (315) taking full advantage of the damp wicket.

Sam Williams (33) was doing a great job chasing down the small total with wickets falling constantly around him - with many of the Monaro batsman falling to poor shots on the damp wicket.

Mitch Hynes (15) steadied the chase and looked ready to launch into the Queanbeyan attack before skying a catch.

Damo Hayden (15), fresh out of hospital, kept Monaro in the match but the Monaro tail just couldn’t find the much needed boundaries in the final two overs, finishing on 9/107.

A match Monaro should have won and, as it was, the first bat on turf for the year from most of the boys and a tough deck to hit first up it was a match to forget for the batsman but the bowlers could walk away with their heads held up high with all bowlers hitting good line and lengths.

A quick dash to ANU South, in this must win encounter. Monaro lost the

toss and were once again in the field.

ANU got off to a flyer and were 0/30 off three overs. Once again Jack Parkyn strangled the batsman and finished with good figures of (0-19) and was unlucky not to get a swag of wickets.

Mitch Clarke (2-21), the man with the golden arm, got the much needed breakthrough.

Monaro struggled in the field with some poor fielding and the bowlers starting to tire and couldn’t quite back up their first match efforts. T Shiels finished with 52 not out.

ANU finished on 3/147 off their allotted 20 overs.

A quick pep talk from the senior members of the team assured the batting group that this wasn’t an overly large chase and that ANU were probably 20 runs short of a par score. Monaro got off to a steady start and had the run rate well in check and, with a deep batting lineup, the loss of two early wickets didn’t slow the run rate.

Sam Williams (39) was once again looking good before he got adjudged LBW in what could best be described as a very poor decision.

At 4/90 with eight overs to go the match was in the balance but a very sensible knock from Luke Johnson (29*) and some power hitting from Iqbal Patel (27*) saw Monaro home with two overs remaining.

The one win and one loss has Monaro sitting in third spot on NRR and winning the final two matches will just about guarantee Monaro a spot in the semi finals.

Monaro have shown they have the potential to go very deep into the Konica Cup this year.

Next week Monaro hosts Batemans Bay in Round three of the McDonalds Country Plate.

Monaro will be fielding one of the strongest sides in recent memory and the Monaro boys will be primed for a big match.

on the Monaro

Mitchell Hynes was unfortunate enough to be caught by The Monaro Post on camera as Aron Rogers knocked the bails off in this delivery.

It wasn’t all bad news for the Cats however, as they easily defeated Dalgety posting 180 and the boys from Dallas only securing a run total in the thirties.

This match was held at Snowy Oval on a glorious summery Saturday.
