FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY MANY households across the Dubbo region are starting preparations for the new school year, checking off supply lists, buying uniforms, school bags and new shoes.

In the Leggett family, five-yearold Jamisen (pictured) needs the assistance of an occupational therapist to help his first day at school – and the years ahead – go well. He will start kindergarten this year at Dubbo North Public School.

Good luck to all our region’s kindergarten students and everyone returning to school. May 2021 be a smoother ride.

SUMMER HEALTH

Prevent heat stress as weather warms up

By LYDIA PEDRANA WITH the mercury set to spike into the mid to high thirties over the next few days, the Red Cross is urging people to be aware of the serious impacts heat can have on health.

Understanding symptoms and taking simple steps to prepare for the hot weather can dramatically decrease the likelihood of falling ill.

Common symptoms of heatstroke include a change in consciousness, or being confused, appearing hot, red and flustered and in extreme cases, vomiting.

More seriously, Dubbo Red Cross first aid trainer George Chapman described overheating as the “shortest route to death you can take.”

Explaining that heat related injuries are generally categorised into three stages, Mr Chapman shed light on how first aiders would treat sufferers.

“The first stage is heat cramps and that is where you may be out walking or doing a bit of exercise, you’re sweating profusely and you start to get slight muscle cramps in your legs and a slight headache,” he said.

“At that stage, all we have to do is take you out of the heat and give you some water to drink and you’ll be fine in 20 or 30 minutes.”

During stage one, a person’s temperature is likely to be around 38 or 38.5 degrees, and as they move into stage two, it could rise to 39 or 39.5 degrees.

“In stage two, the muscle cramps and headache are now quite severe, sweating is really profuse, you’ll be quite pale and it’s now getting to a stage where it’s quite serious,” Mr Chapman said.

“We can’t give you a glass of water, we can only give you sips of water, so what we would do is take you into an area that is cool, strip you to your underwear, spray you with water and then fan you with a towel or something like that to get the temperature down as fast as you can.”

Lastly is stage three, or heat-

stroke, which Mr Chapman said is, “virtually irreversible.

“The internal organs begin to cook, the muscles in your legs begin to melt, the headache would now be really profound, and you won’t be sweating, because all the water that you had is gone, there’s nothing left to sweat, so the skin becomes red, hot and dry,” he said.

“At this stage, we’ve got to everything we did for stage two, but now we are going to put ice under the arms pits and onto the groin to get that temperature down as fast as you can.

“Do they have to go to hospital?

As far as I’m concerned, yes, they do, I don’t believe we as first aid people can rehydrate someone correctly, they do need to go to hospital and go on a drip.”

While the effects of hot weather can be severe in some cases, there are some simple tips for preventing severe outcomes.

The Red Cross’ top tip is to stay hydrated with water, rather than alcohol, tea, coffee or fizzy drinks, even if you don’t feel thirsty.

Eating small meals, often can also help, with the Red Cross recommending cold food such as salads and fruit which also contain water.

To reduce the impact of heat, it’s best to stay indoors or in the shade, particularly during the hottest part of the day.

Cool showers or splashing your face and back of neck with cold water can also help you stay cool, as can ensuring you are exposed to sufficient air circulation, either from an air conditioner, fan or open window or door.

If you are out in the elements, stay in the shade, wear a hat, sunglasses and loose-fitting clothing.

Sun protection with an SPF factor of 30 or more is a must too.

Lastly, the Red Cross is encouraging the local community to look out for their neighbours by checking in with those who may be more susceptible to heat stress, in particular the elderly whose bodies cannot regulate temperature, and ensure they understand these simple ways to stay cool.

EMERGENCY REPORT

Lucky escape for elderly driver

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY AN 81-year-old woman is in an induced coma in Westmead Hospital following a single vehicle accident near Narromine at the weekend.

Remarkably, she was rescued from the vehicle by emergency services with no broken bones, internal or head injuries, except a collapsed lung.

Air Ambulance arrived at the scene inviting their own

drama after setting down in a paddock where a piece of stubble pushed on a fuel drain valve causing a 70-litre jet fuel leak.

On Tomingley Road to retrieve the patient, air ambulance crew conducted an operation on the woman to correct her collapsed lung.

It was a sight local emergency workers had not seen before, but has left them in awe of the remarkable skills of the air ambulance crew.

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THIS year, the German government extended its electric vehicle (EV) subsidies by four years, making it mandatory for all petrol stations to include electric chargers, while the EU committed to adding 800,000 (to the existing 200,000) public chargers to its network by 2025.

The story is very different in Australia. While EV registrations are free in the ACT, some other state governments are either implementing or planning a tax on EVs, which supporters of the new technology say risks disincentivising a Paris Agreement emissions target solution.

Dubbo Regional Council councillor Dayne Gumley has been instrumental in ensuring Dubbo is part of the expanding EV charging infrastructure.

“My interest was more practical than altruistic. Dubbo is a large modern regional centre which attracts people from across the east coast. It also sits at the intersection of major national highways in the geographic centre of NSW,” Cr Gumley said.

“It seemed to me that Dubbo was an obvious place to install EV charging infrastructure to ensure its place on the map for people who have chosen and might choose EVs as their preferred mode of transport.”

The 36th of 60 operational NRMA fast chargers planned for NSW was installed at Mudgee late last year.

Members of the Dubbo Electric Vehicle Interest, Owners; Users and Support (DEVIOUS) attended the official event and are short circuiting over moves by the state governments of South Australia, Victoria and NSW to tax electric vehicles.

“There is no direct correlation between money that is collected as a tax at the petrol bowser and money that is spent on roads.

Fuel taxes go into general revenue. Now is not the time to create an additional tax on saving the planet,” Dubbo EV owners’ group member Mathew Dickerson told Dubbo Photo News.

Proponents of an electric vehicle tax argue that electric ve-

hicles use the roads and therefore should contribute to the fuel excise.

“One day, when electric vehicles start becoming common place, the time may come to consider new taxes. But at this point in our history, when we should be doing everything possible to encourage people to switch to electric vehicles, this tax would be pure poison,” Electric Vehicle Council chief executive Behyad Jafari said.

NSW Transport Minister Andrew Constance and NSW minister for energy Matt Kean have warned NSW should not follow other states and disincentivise people from buying EVs.

Members of the Dubbo EV owners’ group, opposed to state taxes on electric vehicles, attended the official opening of an NRMA fast charger in Mudgee in November. The new station closed an EV loop between Lithgow, Mudgee and Dubbo and opened the way for EV-driving visitors from Sydney and the Hunter regions. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

“Norway went past 50 per cent of new car sales being electric last year. Other countries – such as Iceland, the Netherlands and Sweden – are well into double digit figures. Even the State of California stands out in America as approaching double digit figures for new car sales,” Mr Dickerson said.

Founder of DEVIOUS, Dubbo EV owner Chris Dalitz, said early adopters of EVs have paid a “price premium” for their vehicles – making a greater contribution to tax revenue through GST and Luxury Car Tax. “The electricity used in EVs is taxed with GST (Federal) and other levies (State based), so as we use more electricity in our homes, we contribute more tax.

“A well thought out ‘road usage charge’ needs to recognise where (city/country), when (congestion) and how much (distance) of the road network is being used by a vehicle – regardless of its propulsion system,” he said.

“Furthermore, the environmental impact of that vehicle (emissions, noise, safety) should be factored in rewarding EVs or penalising polluting vehicles.”

FACE masks are now compulsory inside airport terminals, including Dubbo City Regional Airport (DCRA).

Passengers and staff, regardless of whether they are travelling or not, are required to mask up as per a decision made by National Cabinet last week.

DCRA manager Jacki Parish said staff are simply following government health advice.

“We support any measures that will keep our staff and passengers safe, which is why we started wearing facemasks when inside the terminal from (last) Monday,” she said.

“If you are attending the airport, you will be asked to wear a mask.”

Local charity group Pink Angles are selling reusable masks for those who arrive at the airport without one.

Additionally, the DCRA are working with NSW Health and NSW Police Force to conduct temperature testing, away from the main terminal, on passengers arriving from Brisbane.

Ms Parish said airport staff are also vigilantly cleaning and sanitising high-traffic areas.

. . r a e Y w e N New Home Why you should consider downsizing at Oak Tree Retirement Village Dubbo Although it is a very rewarding change, downsizing can be daunting, particularly if you have lived in your home for many years. At Oak Tree, we are here to support you and make the process as simple and stress free as possible.

While it might be difficult at first, the benefits of downsizing are unmatched.

A fresh start with less worries.

Downsizing allows residents to leave behind the physical and financial burden of a large family home. Our villas are stylish, of a high-quality condition, and still have that homely feeling about them. Downsizing into an Oak Tree villa gives you the opportunity to decide what’s important to you and fill your new home with your most precious items and memories.

Peace of mind & budget certainty.

As we get older, the family home can become too big, the yards and gardens increasingly difficult to maintain, and the house more challenging to clean.

At Oak Tree, have the peace of mind that all maintenance, repairs, and most of your regular outgoings will be taken care of with an affordable weekly fee. It covers everything from gardening,

rates, and water, to building insurance and recreational facility operations.

Security for the future.

While commonly associated with aged care facilities or nursing homes, our retirement villages actually encourage you to maintain your independence for longer. The no maintenance structure, smart design, and convenient locations of our villages set you up for the long term.

We collaborate with many external service providers, and with close proximity to crucial medical facilities, you’ll have all the care you need well into the future.

“We stumbled across Oak Tree Dubbo and liked the feel of the place right away. We knew we couldn’t just go by ‘feel’ though, so we looked at other villages too but found there was nothing else like it.

We live in a lovely supportive community – it’s everything we hoped. I can keep up with the housework, the gardens are beautifully maintained for us. It’s like being on holidays all the time. We love it.”

FUNDING

Boost offered for tourism infrastructure LOCAL councils and community organisations in the Parkes electorate are being urged to apply for funding under Round 5 of the popular Building Better Regions Fund (BBRF).

Federal Member for Parkes Mark Coulton said both the community investment and infrastructure projects streams would offer exciting opportunities for economic growth in the electorate.

“There’s no doubt 2020 was challenging in many ways, but the BBRF will help us to kick-start a new year, bringing support to community-driven projects in the Parkes electorate,” Mr Coulton said.

“This round includes $100 million in dedicated funding for tourism-related infrastructure, boosting our regional tourism recovery, while maintaining $100 million for broader community infrastructure and investment.

“The BBRF has gone a long way to enhance local community facilities and create jobs.

“Under the latest round, we secured a whopping $18.8 million for the Parkes electorate, with Cobar Shire Council receiving the largest funding amount of $6.8 million for an upgrade to their local oval facilities, an Early Learning Centre, and an Economic Resilience Strategy.

“Projects like these being funded under the BBRF are delivering lasting benefits to communities in our region, and I urge coun-

cils and community groups to put forward their strong applications to help drive our local economic growth.”

Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Michael McCormack said the Australian Government is proud to be supporting regional communities through the BBRF,

particularly those regions which rely upon domestic and international tourism, “2020 highlighted just how strong our regions are, with communities and industries working to overcome many challenges to continue to grow,” the Deputy Prime Minister said.

“I encourage all eligible applicants to apply for funding to en-

sure the lifeblood of this nation – our regions – continue building strong communities for the future.”

Applications are now open and can be submitted through the online portal at www.business.gov. au/bbrf. Applications close March 5, 2021, with successful applicants expected to be announced in mid-2021.

Free trade agreements with Canada and Korea deliver benefits FURTHER cuts to Canadian tariffs this year will assist Australian fresh or chilled beef exporters, according to Member for Parkes Mark Coulton. The value of these exports to Canada increased by 92 per cent to reach $33 million in 2019-20.

“Tariff reductions on our sheep and goat meat exports under our bilateral free trade agreement with Korea helped increase those exports by eight per cent, to reach $169 million in 2019-20. Tariffs on these products will now be cut from 6.7 to 4.5 per cent,” Mr Coulton said.

“Australia is a trading nation and the products we export are high quality and in demand globally. Reducing trade barriers will boost export opportunities for our farmers and businesses in key export markets which translates to more jobs and economic growth in the Parkes electorate and further afield,” he said.

DUBBO TALENT

Local dancer accepted into elite training centre

Emma Duff y began dancing at Stepping Out Dance Factory when she was six and quickly fell in love with the feeling of performing. PHOTOS: SUPPLIED

By LYDIA PEDRANA AS many 2020 school graduates prepare to take on tertiary study in the next few weeks, Emma Duffy is off to pursue her passion for performing.

Turning down offers to study double degrees in law and arts at five different universities, the creative and intelligent 18-yearold has instead chosen to take on a two-year course at a wellknown, full-time dance training centre in Sydney.

With COVID-19 restrictions meaning Ms Duffy needed to submit videos and photos rather than auditioning in person, she was accepted in Ev and Bow within an hour of pressing send on her application.

Preparing to make the move to the big smoke next month, Ms Duffy explained why she chose to follow her heart instead of her head.

“I chose to go to Ev and Bow over university, as although I know I would easily adapt and love university, it has always been dancing, and the freedom to both create and inspire that I wish to keep doing,” she told Dubbo Photo News.

“For me, this decision was so easy because I knew I wouldn’t get the same feeling of dancing every day and feeling truly alive if I was at university.”

Beginning with hip hop classes at Stepping Out Dance Factory when she was just six years old, Ms Duffy was quick to fall in love with the thrill and adrenaline that comes with being on stage.

“I think what I love the most about dancing and performing, is that it to me is a completely out of body experience, in the sense that it’s not just your body going through the motions but instead your heart telling a story that may be too hard to put into

words,” she said.

“It’s the feeling of freedom and the heat of the stage lighting, it’s the eyes of a million people watching.”

Training with Stepping Out up until now, Ms Duffy said her teachers have had a major influence on her confidence and ability, crediting them for inspiring her to get to the level she is today.

She is also grateful for the fond friendships and memories she has created within the Stepping Out community.

“At first, it was Miss Emma who introduced me to dance and after my first hip hop class I just couldn’t wait until the next Tuesday when I could do it all again,” Ms Duffy said.

“As the years passed, I picked up more genres and started being taught by Miss Rikki where I learned all my foundation ballet work, and she suggested I try

contemporary dance which I am forever grateful for as it’s taken me exactly where I want to be.

“Miss Brandi helped me gain so much confidence, in the sense she made me sing on stage which was amazing but so scary, and I learned so much from her and all of her past training.”

Not knowing anyone except for her future roommate, who has already completed one year at the centre, Ms Duffy feels ready and excited about her next step.

“Although it is so overwhelming and a massive change to what I am used to, I know it is best for me as a dancer to take such an amazing opportunity.”

Following the two-year course, Ms Duffy will have obtained a Diploma of Dance and Certificate IV in Dance.

Beyond that, she hopes to get into a major dance company and travel the world, dancing on one stage at a time.

IN 2021, Australian music icon John Williamson (above) will celebrate his 51st anniversary in the entertainment industry and foresee closing the book on his regular touring.

He first wandered into Richmond’s GTV9 studios in 1970 with a guitar under his arm and could not have predicted then – as a Mallee farmer – he’d make a 50plus year career out of singing and performing.

Half a century on, John Williamson has made an art of expertly capturing Australia in song. Painting lyrical pictures of our unique fauna and flora, landscapes and people, John has encapsulated the beauty, wonder and, sometimes, heartbreak of life Down Under.

From boabs to billabongs and snowy mountains to sandy beaches, the Mallee-born songwriter’s 52 albums – including 20 original studio albums – have traversed Australia like a dust-covered road train.

IN BRIEF

Rumour mill swirls about rehab centre location

Preparation is key as holidaymakers face busier roads this summer

By LYDIA PEDRANA COMMUNITY members are pushing for Dubbo’s new $7.5 million drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre to be built on the old Bellhaven site, Dubbo Photo News understands.

The former aged care facility located in Wellington currently sits empty after closing its doors permanently in 2018.

With Dubbo Regional Council committed to providing land for the centre, Dubbo Mayor Ben Shields doesn’t believe the Bellhaven site is the most appropriate location.

“There are a number of sites Council could potentially provide and that is a resolution of Council to do that,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

“We are being told that the ideal site is somewhere in a rural location, so it needs to be on an acreage.

“Whilst I think the idea to have it at Bellhaven has good intentions, the best spot for a facility like this is somewhere where patients and people seeking treatment have that privacy and have that relaxed atmosphere out of town.

“Bellhaven is not necessarily in the right place for a facility like that if you are trying to get people away from bad influences.”

Meanwhile, Member for the Dubbo electorate Dugald Saunders remained tight lipped about the areas being considered.

“We are in the very early stages of looking at options for the

location of a drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre in the Dubbo area,” he told Dubbo Photo News.

“There are a number of factors to consider and all options will be evaluated before a decision is made.

“I’ve said on a number of occasions it is important that we do this project right, and that doesn’t just relate to the construction of the building, but also the programs and the location.”

Also stressing the importance of getting the design and location of Dubbo’s rehab facility right is executive director of The

Glen Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centre, Joe Coyte.

Mr Coyte, who has worked at The Glen on the Central Coast for the last 20 years said community support and professional consultation are key to running an effective facility.

“We understand better than anyone how to run a successful residential rehabilitation centre, we understand how the location and the site are important to its success or failure,” Mr Coyte said.

“I would suggest that any site being considered should

be looked at by the people who know how to run rehabs and should include consultation with local community.

“It’s a very important decision.”

While a fully funded detoxification and residential rehabilitation facility for Dubbo has been a hot topic for many years, the State Government only announced funding for the project in November last year.

The $7.5 million commitment to Dubbo’s centre is part of $305 million set aside for drug and alcohol related services in the state budget.

IT’S the summer for road trips, but new research from NRMA Insurance is warning of a lot more traffic on the roads this year, with an expected 20 percent increase in the number of Australians planning a driving holiday this year.

An NRMA Insurance poll shows 90 percent of Aussies who are going on a driving holiday are planning on travelling for more than two hours, with nearly one in ten planning a trip of more than 15 hours to reach their destination.

The school holidays will see the busiest traffic conditions, with nearly three-quarters going away in December and January.

The poll also worryingly shows nearly one in five admit they don’t do any maintenance on their vehicle, or even plan their route, before setting off.

To keep safe on a long road trip this summer, NRMA Insurance advises getting a good night’s sleep before setting off, making sure your vehicle is ready for the long trip ahead by getting a service and once on the road, restrain luggage and children correctly, take regular breaks and check – and drive to – weather conditions.

IN BRIEF

Local environment group working to save an endangered bird

By LYDIA PEDRANA NOURISHMENT for the nationally endangered Glossy Black Cockatoo is permanently available at Taronga Western Plains Zoo (TWPZ), thanks to the work of Dubbo Rivercare Group Inc. volunteers.

Alarmed by the scarcity of the species’ favoured food source, the group planted 12 she-oak trees on TWPZ property at the end of last year.

According to Dubbo Rivercare president Daryl Green, this particular bird is what many human parents would describe as a “very fussy eater”.

“It feeds predominately on the seeds of just a few of our regional she-oak or casuarina trees,” Mr Green told Dubbo Photo News.

“The birds strip the seed pods from the tree, then tear them open with their strong bills to extract the seeds.

“One of these casuarinas is the Broombush She-oak or Allocasuarina diminuta, the numbers of which are much diminished due to land clearing since European arrival.

“Bushfires in recent times have made the problem worse for the birds, with many of the aged eucalypts containing the nesting

hollows necessary for their breeding, have burned to the ground.”

It is hoped that when the new trees reached maturity, the bird, which spends most of its time in the nearby Goonoo Forest, will be a more frequent Zoo visitor.

“The giveaway signs will be the sound of the clicking of their bulbous and well-adapted cone-cracking bills, the fall-

ing debris of casuarina cones and the broken cones lying beneath these favoured trees,” Mr Green explained.

Separately, the TWPZ is also working to replenish other critically endangered bird species, including the Regent Honeyeater and Plains Wanderer, through their specialised breeding programs.

“After planting the she-oak trees, the TWPZ keepers showed the (Rivercare) group through the nursery and breeding areas, and then to the flight aviary,” Mr Green said.

“They explained the importance of being able to breed these beautiful and striking birds, which now number very few in the wild.

“This breeding program has been remarkably successful, both at Taronga and Western Plains Zoo; releases of captive bred birds into the wild, including in 2020, have progressed with a good degree of success.”

While last year posed many challenges for many local volunteer organisations, Rivercare is “quietly satisfied” with its achievements.

Mr Green said there were 29 working bees conducted in 2020, which amounts to almost 500 hours of work or $12,000 of volunteer labour for the local Council and community.

Currently on recess until early next month, Mr Green encourages anyone interested in becoming a Rivercare member to get in touch by contacting dubborivercare@gmail.com or calling the president directly on 0427 952 033.

Be wise with water over summer under Level 1 water restrictions

DUBBO Regional Council are reminding residents to be wise with the city’s water while Level 1 water restrictions remain in place.

This means households can water outside each day during daylight saving, between the hours of 6pm and 9am.

Residential daily target per person per day to 380 litres - up from 320 litres.

Climate change will have a profound effect on Council’s Water and Sewerage undertakings.

More information can be found on the DRC website, or by contacting Council’s Customer Experience team on (02) 6801 4000.

IT’S A RECORD! Free-diver Stig Severinsen from Denmark has added another Guinness World Records title to his list of accolades, this time for the longest distance swam underwater with one breath using fins (open water, male).

IN THE FAMILY

Dubbo family working over four generations

By JOHN RYAN

WHEN it comes to Dubbo residents, there’s few families in town who could match the Bruces’ connection with its working history.

James Bruce started shoeing horses and heating metal into products well before the twentieth century began, according to Max Bruce, who still fronts up daily to work at Sid Bruce’s Exhaust and Auto Repairs, well into his 70s.

“I’m 74 and the business started in the motor game in 1924 and I’ve been here since 1964, dad before me and my grandfather before him; it was a blacksmiths before that,” Max told Dubbo Photo News.

It’s an incredible four generations of the family working in an industry which involves the facilitation of transportation – from horseshoes and bullock wagons, through the early development of the internal combustion engine and now cars run by computers.

“Just a progression, before motor cars there were blacksmiths looking after horses and buggies, sulkies and wagons and the family’s been working in it since the late 1800s.”

Everything involved in retail and service seems to need to be new these days with shiny counters and flash shopfronts, but the Sid Bruce workshop is like a walk back in time and customers tell us the level of personal service is like it was back in the 1950s – which Max says is vitally important to his family.

And there’s a pride in the family workmanship, borne out by the legacy of historical photographs on display which depict the earliest Bruce ‘Smithy’ and family members and business premises through the generations.

“Everyone from my grandmother has kept the old photos down along the line and a relative has touched them all up and expanded them and framed them and done all that for us,” Max said.

“There’s a fair bit of history.”

He said when he started as a young bloke, in those days they fixed everything they could, they salvaged everything possible and

didn’t waste a thing and they bought new only when there were no other options.

“There’s a lot of waste going on, isn’t there, most things can be reused but you need the time to fix them and nobody’s got the time anymore, but we used to make things, we fabricated things, you didn’t rely on a spare parts set-up that could just supply anything and everything, but today they can supply and deliver far quicker

and more cheaply than we could re-manufacture things,” he said.

Max’s grandfather had retired before he started so he was taught the automotive mechanic trade by his dad, and he said being taught by his dad was pretty special.

“It’s all about everybody helping one another and you pick up bits and pieces along the way.

“I’ve enjoyed the interaction with our customers, we’ve got some families who are fourth gen-

eration clients, or their nephews or nieces, they still bring their cars to us, so there’s quite a few of them, we’re kept pretty busy.

“We’ve lived through the easiest part of history and seen a hell of a lot of changes, we’ve done well.”

Robert Bruce is the fourth generation of the family to take on the trade and he said he likes the way the emphasis has always been on looking after their customers as the number one priority before

any other considerations are taken into account.

“I enjoy the longevity of the business, just the stability of things, not the chopping and changing so much like most of today’s world is,” Robert said.

“Back in the old days you just sort of did your trade and continued with your trade rather than chopping and changing like most trades are now, things are so changeable nowadays.”

Dog (wash) day afternoon

By JOHN RYAN TOM Foster enjoys taking his German Shepherd rescue dog, Dodge, to the Mitre 10 dog wash because, he says, everything you need is there, you just pay to use them and drive away.

And, he says, it’s sort of fun work during the holiday period, and much more fun than working at a day job.

“It’s great, this dog wash, it’s just easy to bring your dog here to give it a wash,” he told Dubbo Photo News one hot afternoon.

Dodge was loving the attention, and the water spray, not so for his buddy Sasha, owned by

Tom’s brother Jake Foster.

Jake told Dubbo Photo News that Sasha is a mixed breed he bought “from some bloke in Perth”, and he said she doesn’t like getting washed, at all.

“She hates it, she’s not keen, she’s not excited, Dodge loves it, she hates it,” he said.

“You can come in here, put a few bucks through it and everything is here for you.

“It’s not bad, it’s pretty good, awesome and convenient and saves us having to buy shampoo.”

Right: Tom Foster washes Dodge while his brother Jake and pup Sasha look on.

YOUTH EVENT

Helping local teens ‘bounce back’ after rough year

By LYDIA PEDRANA THE trials and tribulations of 2020 didn’t just challenge adults of society.

According to headspace Dubbo, the forced isolation which came as a result of the global pandemic had a major impact on today’s youth.

Headspace Dubbo’s community engagement officer Amy Mines, said young people still crave physical connection, despite how connected they may appear on social media. “Young people struggled being limited to their homes, many living in volatile environments that they could no longer escape,� she told Dubbo Photo News. “For anyone, regardless of their age, losing control over situations is also something that can impact mental health and not knowing when this control will be regained can be anxiety provoking. “Many young people struggled with having to do school online especially those who struggle in mainstream education already or who did not have access to adequate internet or support from family.�

Recognising this, headspace Dubbo, along with Dubbo Youth Interagency, are hosting a free event for 12- to 18-year-olds next Wednesday, January 20, at the Dubbo Aquatic and Leisure Centre from 4.30pm to 8.30pm.

Dubbed the ‘bounce back youth event,’ the aim of initiative is to reward the young people of Dubbo for the resilience they have shown over the past 12 months.

Encouraged to come dressed as their hero, there will also be a poolside DJ, free barbecue, goodie bags and free water slide access.

Ms Mines said such in-person events are vital for mental and emotional wellbeing. “Being able to get out in the sunshine and fresh air and have fun in the water is great for boosting one’s mental health,� she explained. “Connecting with people in person being able to enjoy their physical company, read body language, tone and inflection, is all important to maintaining and creating positive relationships. “It’s important for young people to have safe spaces where they can come and explore their identity, who they want to be, how they feel about day-to-day issues and others’ opinions. “It is also a great way for them to get to know the workers from various youth services on a more personal level and develop a rapport and trust that can encourage them to access and utilise the services available to them as and when they need them.�

With a no ticket, no entry policy, tickets are now available from headspace Dubbo or: www.123tix.com.au

Many volunteers from this region spent plenty of shifts along the east coast during the months of bushfires over the 2019/2020 summer period, as well as performing their emergency duties back here at home.

Here’s a snapshot of some of the Orana Region’s Rural Fire Service brigades after they received their Premier’s Citations.

High vaccination rate needed FEDERAL Member for Parkes Mark Coulton has urged everyone to remain vigilant and monitor the latest information on COVID-19 outbreaks in the wake of a confirmed case of COVID-19 travelling through Nyngan, Broken Hill and Orange at the beginning of January.

“In my view, we will not defeat the virus in Australia unless we have an extremely high rate of vaccination,” Mr Coulton said.

The vaccine for Australia is a two-shot process which needs to be managed, particularly for priority populations.

“There will be five phases of priority populations over the course of 2021 to administer the vaccine: both the Pfizer vaccine and the AZ vaccine. Populations in the first phase are quarantine and border workers, front line health officials, those working in aged care and disability care, and those in aged care, and disability care residents.

“Worth noting is the fact that vaccination is not a silver bullet.

Once the vaccination starts, COVID-Safe practices do not end – they will continue.”

HEARTBREAKING TRAGEDY

A town in mourning Disbelief and shattered lives as a community comes together in the wake of a tragic loss of life; two young boys, Shane and Sheldon Shorey, killed in Wellington on Tuesday, January 5.

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY JACOB Donn, 25, faced Dubbo court on Tuesday via video link from Bathurst jail.

Sobbing during the proceedings, he said he wished he had died instead of six- and seven-yearold brothers, Sheldon and Shane Shorey.

Mr Donn was refused bail and charged for the fatal pedestrian crash which the unlicenced driver allegedly caused in Wellington on Tuesday, January 5.

He made no application for bail when he appeared in court on Thursday on charges of dangerous driving occasioning death-drive manner dangerous, negligent driving (occasioning death), negligent driving (occasions grievous bodily harm), dangerous driving occasioning grievous bodily harmdrive manner dangerous, cause bodily harm by misconduct, in charge of motor vehicle (x2), never licensed person drive vehicle on road, fail to stop and assist after impact causing injury (x2), fail to stop and assist after vehicle impact causing death (x2), fail to stop and assist after vehicle impact causing grievous bodily harm, and possess prohibited drug.

In court supporting Donn was his great-grandmother, Dawn Donn.

Magistrate Theresa Hamilton cited the fact Donn fled the scene leaving two dead and three injured, making him a flight risk and he was denied bail.

The deceased boys’ mother Shayleen Frail, 34, was severely injured in the crash and is making her re-

covery in Westmead Hospital. “Even the doctors are amazed at her strength and resilience. Hopefully she will be transferred back to Dubbo Base Hospital soon,� family friend Bec Clarke wrote in an online post, republished here with her permission. “Shay knows the hardest part is yet to come but knows she has the love and support of her family, friends, community and even strangers. “She really does want to thank everyone personally for their well wishes and support during this tough time,� Ms Clarke wrote.

Ms Frail suffered a broken left knee and fractured right ankle and will be in a neck brace for a spine/ neck injury for up to 12 weeks.

Just three days after losing his life in the crash, Shane Shorey was to celebrate his 8th birthday at the Dubbo Aquatic Centre on Friday, January 8.

Family and friends gathered at the party venue as planned. “Shay was able to join in via video call while we all sang happy birthday and released the balloons. It was absolutely heartbreaking but beautiful as well,� Ms Clarke wrote.

At about 4.30pm on Tuesday, January 5, emergency services were called to Warne Street, Wellington, following reports five pedestrians had been struck by a car.

10-year-old Mataya AhSee was also injured in the crash and is to have a partial leg amputation.

The Wellington community and beyond are struggling to come to terms with the sad tragedy.

The boys’ father Joseph Storey (crouching, in blue shirt) is comforted by family, friends and an outpouring of love and support from the Wellington community.

THE UNLIKELY COUNCIL DUO The Mayor and his Deputy: one left, one right, one conservative, one progressive, but somehow, both mates

By LYDIA PEDRANA THEY could be likened to Buzz and Woody, Timone and Pumba umba or Wallace and Gromit.

Both sitting firmly on different ferent sides of the fence when it comes to their views, opinions and d approach, Dubbo Mayor Ben Shields hields and Deputy Mayor Stephen Lawrence don’t just make it work, they make it work well.

The pair met back in 2015 during the Save Playmates Cottage age campaign when Mr Lawrence nce was the State Labor candidate ate and Mr Shields was the Depuputy Mayor of the former Dubbo bbo City Council.

Both advocating to save the he childcare facility, Mr Shields ds joked that he was “on guard” d” when he was first introduced d to Mr Lawrence.

“Over the years I have had d a fair few run-ins with Laborr types,” Mr Shields told Dub-bo Photo News jovially. ths “However, as the months went by, I found out that while he might be a bleeding-heartt leftie, he has a huge sincerity to his approach and holds his views with conviction.”

Meanwhile, Mr Lawrence was thinking the same thing about the “old school country conservative”.

“I thought he (Mr Shields) was a deluded Liberal party member who needed to see the light and I have consistently tried to lead him to that light over the years, with no success,” Mr Lawrence jested.

“But more seriously, I met him during the 2015 State Election campaign when some members of the Save Playmates Cottage committee introduced us and my first impression was that, in a blue over local issues, he was a better person to have on your side than against you.”

Although their political views are more often than not polar op-

“I th think that by having open commu communication that isn’t just betwee between the Mayor and Deputy Mayor Mayor, but with all councillors, has lled the current council to be the most harmonious in at lleast 40 years,” Mr Shields said said.

“This has enabled Coun“T cil tto get a lot of things done without bogging down in petwith politics.” ty p Mr Lawrence agrees, credM iting the current Dubbo Reitin gional Council’s “collective gio approach” for achieving app “many wins” for the region, “m namely the recent State Govna ernment funding for a detox er and rehabilitation centre. an The two also sit on the board of the NSW Local bo Government Association, Gov where Mr Lawrence is in a wh higher position than Mr h Shields as Vice President, which allegedly “annoys” the Mayor.

Although it’s not necessarily kosher that the Mayor and Deputy Mayor of a town hold two different political persuasions, both strive to use it for the greater good rather than letting it drive a wedge between them.

Mr Shields said, “For me personally, having Stephen as a sounding board to troubleshoot community issues that may be of concern to Labor type people has been a great help to me.

“Even though I come from a conservative background, as Mayor I have honestly tried to represent everyone.

“Stephen’s advice, and way he explains things – particularly social matters – has assisted me significantly.”

Mr Lawrence said: “It’s helpful if the positions (of the Mayor and Deputy Mayor) reflect the political balance of the council and that the council itself is functional.

“This council certainly is that; we are 10 honest people genuinely committed to proper decision making and doing the right thing and we don’t have ego-driven fights.”

Both also admitted the other has successfully changed their views on some major Council issues but were reluctant to divulge details.

“As they say around footy teams, what happens on tour stays on tour,” Mr Shields laughed.

“It’s best not to reveal too much of our argy bargy.”

Maybe next time they disagree, they should have it out in the ring?

OPINION & ANALYSIS

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

On Trump, Labor claims Dear Editor, Re: R. McKeowen’s Letter to the Editor “Perhaps Donald Trump could give advice”, Dubbo Photo News, January 7, 2021.

In a Letter to the Editor last week, R. McKeowen jumped to the conclusion that my scrutiny of the Coalition government must make me a devotee of the Labor Party.

Whilst this is common assumption in a Two-Party System, it is a fallacy to believe I must be devotee of Labor because I am criticising the Coalition.

I scrutinise the Coalition because they are in power, and because the mainstream media appear to be incapable or unwilling to hold the Coalition to account for their duplicity and incompetence.

If Labor were in power and acting with the same lack of honesty and integrity as our current Federal Leaders, R. McKeowen can

be assured Labor would receive the same scrutiny and critique from me.

R. McKeowen also stated I would benefit from advice from Donald Trump on appealing the result of the last (Federal) election.

If that recommendation was made in jest, the humour is lost on me. The idea of taking advice on ethics from Trump – serial fraudster, adulterer, racist and compulsive liar – is irrational, as Trump is.

The events of last week were the lethal culmination of Trump’s immorality, and prove he deserves punishment, not praise.

Greg Smart, Dubbo

The ‘COVID alarm’ goes off out west The Editor, Chances have increased that the virus is with us in “the bush”. I don’t blame the young man who test-

ed positive after a camping trip “out west”. After all, before Christmas Mr Barilaro urged people to “flock to the regions” at the same time as the Chief Health Officer was urging people to “stay home”.

Did Dugald Saunders speak to Mr Barilaro to urge him to change what he was saying? I doubt it.

More recently, Mr Barilaro was urging people not to travel to regional NSW. A bit too late, Mr Barilaro.

What is going to happen now Mr Barilaro? Is the Government going to pay for the deep cleaning of the businesses which the young man visited? What about the staff of those businesses having to be tested and then isolate for 14 days, who is going to pay their wages? How many more businesses are going to be affected? How many more people are going to be affected?

What about Nyngan and

Broken Hill. It would have been far better if you, Mr Barilaro, had urged the Treasurer to issue the $100 food and entertainment vouchers to the people of regional NSW. After all, you are the

Minister for Regional NSW. The only thing you have done, Mr Barilaro, is cause a potential problem with the economy of businesses in regional NSW and put everyone on edge this side of the

Blue Mountains.

Latest update: he’s “flipped/flopped” again, saying it’s now okay to travel to regional NSW! Kate Bailey, Ponto

Country newspapers head back to grass roots Ron McLean ❚ OPINION IN the last decade the media landscape across Australia has been turned on its head by the wholesale acquisition of local and regional mastheads. It is a critical state of affairs. The print industry has been decimated by the combined effects of monopoly ownership, corporate greed, destructive cost-cutting and loss of identity and autonomy in local communities.

In the bush, hundreds of small newspapers which functioned independently, in many cases for more than 100 years, have been sacrificed on the altar of what is seen as progress. Newspapers, even those in regional cities, have been banished to on-line versions of themselves. Surely the newspaper barons must have become aware in recent months that ONLINE DOESN’T WORK. The people who matter in all of this are READERS, not computer-screen jockeys. The large majority of people out there are not computer-savvy, they are not digital warriors – and they never will be. All in the name of profit, the big players in the field have turned their backs on their lifeblood. And now, they are paying the price.

REPEAT. ON-LINE DOESN’T WORK. The power of the written word in a low-cost item, a newspaper in the flesh, has been prematurely and carelessly discarded.

What has happened in country media particularly comes as no surprise to me. All the cracks have been building up for years, the last few decades even.

I came to Gunnedah more than 40 years ago, when the Namoi Valley Independent was owned by the Longmuir family. The late John Longmuir was a newspaperman through and through and a great man for his community. He said to me once that a local newspaper had to be a town’s best advocate

Local newspapers have been a significant factor in the life of country towns for more than a century. In recent years, however, after a seismic change from independent to monopolistic ownership, many “locals” have disappeared and many more will not survive much longer. But the winds of change are blowing back again, as hardcopy newspapers start to re-appear in country towns. The Gunnedah Times is one of the latest additions to the new independent face of country newspapers. and its greatest defender. I’ve never forgotten that. I’ve tried to make it my mantra, too, though I doubt with the same effect.

Over the years, local newspapers have been the backbone of communities. Some people might think that statement is over-dramatic or fanciful. It’s not. There has never been anyone who fought for his local community like John Longmuir. And that’s the way the majority of small papers operated.

So why has the decline in local newspapers occurred? Well, in my view, the root cause of the problem is the consolidation of newspaper ownership in the hands of a few very large operators. At one time, virtually every country town had its paper. Then, gradually, hundreds of mastheads were swallowed up by, initially, Rural Press. Then, in time, Rural Press was taken over by Fairfax, at the same time as Australian Provincial Newspapers and News Limited intensified their acquisition of rural papers in other parts of Eastern Australia. That left very few independent, privately-owned papers in the bush.

Almost overnight, local communities, to a large extent, had lost their voice. Proprietors and editors and senior staff, who knew their local communities backwards, forward and sideways, were no longer there, swallowed up by corporate greed. All that local knowledge, history and experience disappeared... the people who knew how a local town ticked had gone.

Long-term staff either resigned, retired or were swept out by the new broom. The emotional commitment of a local editor, like John Longmuir, to a town and to a job took a real battering.

Regionalisation became the new mantra. The very first move of the

new regime was to introduce rolling cost-cutting, to set up regional models, to close down printing presses in favour of regional printing hubs, to reduce staff by sacking or “sharing” with a regional office, to scale back local production, pagination and page make-up, and basically remove local editorial independence.

In other words, the hub of the organisation wasn’t in local communities, it was in a regional office.

Local newspapers suddenly didn’t even have a local editor, some didn’t even have a shopfront.

In my view that model has been a complete disaster. As just one example, the printing press at the Namoi Valley Independent in Gunnedah, installed in 1971, had the best reproduction of any newspaper across the state, even the whole country. It won a slew of state and national awards. This was largely because the press operator, Terry Maroney, looked after the press like a baby. Maintenance was meticulous. But very soon after the sale of the paper, the press was dismantled and shipped off to the Philippines. So, a vital piece of infrastructure was lost. That was just the start.

I’m not criticising journalists on local papers. I know they are trying but they are frustrated. I’m critical of the upheaval caused by management. And I’m also critical of the level of training in the industry. In the making of a journalist, there’s no substitute for the experience of the old-time operator, who knows news-gathering and what the people want like the back of his hand.

None of that experience is available today. Young journalists have been thrown in at the deep end.

It will be a long way back for country newspapers – the infrastructure is no longer there, social

and reading habits have changed dramatically and digital communication, which is beyond the comprehension of a large slice of the readership, now rules the roost.

This large section of the readership now has to go online to access local news. For many, that is something right out of their ambit. They want their news in their hands and they want it “local”.

I also think that some of the role of the local paper has been taken over, to an extent, by the growth of Facebook. The jury’s still out there.

In some circumstances, Facebook might be seen as a useful communication tool, despite the atrocious spelling, woeful grammar and foul language, but Facebook is vacuous, mostly comprising quick grabs, and lacks the depth and substance of print. People don’t want anything that requires analysis or a thought process these days, they are not capable of that and don’t want to be.

I really fear for the future of print.

It is beyond belief that major centres like Grafton and Lismore, and many others, no longer have hardcopy newspapers. Places like Maitland, where the local newspaper was established in 1843 as one of the very early newspapers in Australia, and Mildura, on the Murray, where staff turned up at work one day earlier this year to learn that the paper was being closed down that day. Incredible.

So how does the bush fight back?

Well, if the industry is to survive in the bush, there has to be a wholesale restructure, a return to the traditional “local” roles of country newspapers. The key word is local. Through corporate greed, country newspapers have become irrelevant. The best way to resist the challenge is to “do it better”, not roll over to digital. If the fight hasn’t been lost, it’s certainly on

the ropes.

The outlook is not beyond recovery. The answer lies in community-driven newspapers, backed by local business, stepping into the breach. It means hard work, not just nine to five, and it is a financial risk, because newspaper production is expensive. Business and readership backing is essential.

That’s the challenge.

That is why the Gunnedah Times is throwing its hat into the ring.

It is coming into print to give the people what they want. The locals don’t want a publication that they can only read online.

A printed newspaper can be read at leisure – it doesn’t just flash across a screen and disappear into deep space. It can sit in a paper rack for days, for later referral, to answer questions, like what’s on at the cinema, who has died, who has had a baby or what’s on television.

It can be sent on to family members in other parts of the country, it can be cut up and pasted in scrapbooks.

The corporate raiders who thought that everyone would simply gravitate to online have made a grave miscalculation about the influence of online in country areas, which clearly shows how little they know about the way their communities operate.

If the big players in the industry don’t know what their readership wants, they could hardly complain about someone else stepping into the breach to provide it.

Thankfully, though, country press is fighting back. Small, independent, community newspapers have sprung up in scattered locations across NSW, Victoria and Queensland. They face a tough fight for survival, but, without exception, country towns have given them great encouragement.

For survival to occur, however, that community backing must continue beyond next week, next month, next year.

Australian Red Cross, Dubbo staff and volunteers.

Story contributed by GREATER WESTERN REGION, AUSTRALIAN RED CROSS Photos by KEN SMITH THE Dubbo office of Australian Red Cross reopened the doors in a new location at 343 Darling Street on December 11 (next door to Studio 62 hairdressing).

The new office was opened by the Director of Red Cross NSW & ACT Poppy Brown.

“Red Cross has had a long and strong presence in the far western region of NSW. Everyone says the new office ‘feels like Red Cross home’ and it’s probably because the new office looks a lot like our Dubbo office we had in Wingewarra Street from 1958,” Poppy said.

“We are also delighted that we now have a training room to deliver First Aid and Psychological First Aid training at our new location.”

The opening was held in conjunction with the NSW Premier’s Bushfire Emergency Citations, awarded to local emergency services volunteers in recognition of their services during the

2019-2020 NSW Bushfires.

Emergency Services volunteers were also recognised for making wellbeing calls to people quarantining in Sydney hotels during the COVID pandemic.

“In 2021 we will be inviting people to join our Trauma Teddy Knitting Group.

You don’t have to be a knitter, you can come along and help in other ways, enjoy some time out, meet new people,” Poppy said.

Anyone who has some time to spare is encouraged to explore the volunteering opportunities available with Red Cross in Dubbo, including becoming an Emergency Services volunteer to assist communities to prepare and respond to an emergency, becoming a preparedness trainer, or becoming a Telecross caller making a daily call to someone living alone and at risk due to medical issues or make a longer call to someone socially isolated.

If you are community minded and like to help people, call 02 8295 2755 and find out more about how to become a Red Cross volunteer.

WORDS OF WISDOM

Noel Bennett Interview and photo by SOPHIA ROUSE Is age just a number?

I’m 81 but I don’t feel it. I’m lucky because I’m a healthy person so I plan to live a long time. I try to keep myself as fit as I can. I play table tennis and golf. I just don’t think about age.

What about the world today doesn’t make sense?

Certainly the pandemic has upset the world for the year and has changed the way we operate and will for a long time.

Within the village one of the very good things is that we would get together and that’s been restricted but we’ve made up for it in other ways.

We’ve had activities outside and we’re trying to do the best we can.

I’ve been at Kintyre Village for 15 months. My wife passed away six years ago, and it was a pretty lonely existence for a single person. So, I was impressed with the appear-

ance, freshness and openness of Kintyre Village but when I came here the friendliness and opportunity to meet people with similar backgrounds and lifestyles was what really got me here. I love meeting new people and making new friends.

That’s one of the reasons why I came involved in the social committee here.

What did you get up to growing up?

Life when we were kids was different to today. I milked two cows and rode a pushbike three miles before I caught a bus to school when I was eight or nine. I was a typical farm boy and I think growing up on the farm was very special. I saw the introduction to so many new things.

When I was a kid there was no electricity, no gauze doors so flies and mosquitoes in houses was just a thing that was accepted. We rode horses and lived a different life to what the younger generation do today.

I look back and think how fortunate

I was to be born in that generation and see the gradual improvement.

You know, the things we take for granted now. We saw lollies once a year. On Christmas Eve the local store owner would donate boiled lollies for Santa to throw out on the street for kids to grab and that was the only lollies we saw. So, it was a real treat when we got things like that. You respected and valued everything.

I’ve played sport all my life because it was a social meeting in those days.

There was no TV or home entertainment, so you made your own up. You played tennis in the winter and cricket in the summer and you would go swimming after cricket and get up to all sorts of mischief.

I’ve been involved in just about every community activity in Tottenham. I was in local government for 17 years.

I carried the torch in the Olympic relay, and I hold an OAM for my work in the community. I’ve always had an inbuilt desire to make things better for people.

twitter.com/CBMDubbo

Decide what will you give up in order to achieve your goal?

No pain, no gain. Let’s say your goal is to study a subject that’s hardest for you for 30 minutes every day. Would you get up in the morning 30 minutes earlier, to get it out of the way and not have to think about it the rest of the day? Would you switch unhealthy snacks for good? Would you give up a night in front of the TV or scrolling social media to join a class to learn that something new? Write it on your list.

Break it down.

Be realistic. You are not going to be working on your goal 24/7. You have to eat, sleep, spend time doing other things. Choose a realistic amount of time to work toward your goal. Aim for a routine. For example, is spending 20 minutes a day focussing on your goal enough? Could you walk 20 minutes a day if your goal is to get fit or lose weight? By the time a week, a month, three months go by, you’ll have dedicated a significant amount of time working to achieve your goal and probably have formed a good habit around it too. Write down what you’ll do exactly – those snack sized bites at your goal – to achieve it.

Get help.

Going it alone means you’re only accountable to you. There are a host of reasons why that’s not a good idea, but if you have someone to check in with, a parent, a friend, a tutor who you can report to and log your progress, it does force you to step back for a moment and take an honest look at how you’re progressing, giving you the opportunity to improve or maybe celebrate. Write down who you’ll tell and how often.

What’s your why?

If you don’t have a why, then you don’t have a reason to stay motivated. If your goal is to learn a new skill so you can get a better job, move to a new city, afford a holiday, buy that car, get that degree, lose those 10 kilos… then that’s the key to success. What’s your why? Write it down.

Read your goal every morning.

Now that you have your list. Frame it. Put that frame by your bedside and every morning when you get out of bed, read it. When you go to bed at night, let it be the last thing you read. You could just as easily stick it to your bathroom mirror or somewhere you see when you start and end your day.

It’s the moment to remind yourself before and after the noise of the day what’s your goal, what you’ve committed to do to achieve it, and why.

Winners of the waiting game

By KEN SMITH A MORNING of thunder and rain couldn’t match the smiles and excitement of Year 12 students and their teachers at the Dubbo College Senior Campus HSC Results Release morning Tea. Senior Campus relieving Principal Marisha Blanco said the school’s leadership team was thrilled with the results, with a 16 per cent increase in the number of students achieving results in the top two bands. These results were shared across 30 courses.

A record number of 236 students graduated Year 12 at Dubbo College this year.

“While we are elated by our HSC results, we are also immensely proud of all of our students, many of whom have been offered apprenticeships, further education and direct employment from school.”

Miss Blanco said.

Dubbo College HSC students returned to Senior Campus on Friday, December 18, for a final farewell morning tea to celebrate their amazing success.

The HSC really is over.

The idea of Go Figure is to arrive at the figures given at the bottom and right-hand columns of the diagram by following the arithmetic signs in the order they are given (that is, from left to right and top to bottom). Use only the numbers below the diagram to complete its blank squares and use each of the nine numbers only once.

Place a number in the empty boxes in such a way that each row across, each column down and each small 9-box square contains all of the numbers from one to nine.

STRANGE BUT TRUE z Many people in South Korea opt to compress the remains of the dead person into gem-like beads in different colours, which are then displayed at home. z Greenland sharks don’t reach puberty until they are 150 years old. z The first hoop skirt was worn by Queen Juana of Portugal, in a bid to hide the fact she was pregnant. z In 2015, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield released the first ever album recorded entirely in space, titled “Space Sessions: Songs from a Tin Can.” z The oldest known customer service complaint was written on a clay cuneiform tablet in Mesopotamia 4000 years ago. In it, a customer named Nanni complains that he was sold inferior copper ingots.

ODDS, ENDS & INSPIRATION z Russia only classified beer as an alcoholic drink in 2011. z In 1984, New Zealand Prime Minister Robert Muldoon got drunk and decided to spontaneously call a general election, which he lost. z Before battles, some Roman gladiators read product endorsements. The makers of the film “Gladiator” planned to show this but nixed the idea for fear that audiences wouldn’t believe it. z A person with geomelophagia has the urge to eat raw potatoes. z In the late 1800s in Corinne, Utah, you could buy legal divorce papers from a vending machine for $2.50. z Late in his life, Guglielmo Marconi believed no sound ever dies completely. He dreamed of building a device strong enough to pick up the actual words of Jesus at the “Sermon on the Mount”.

NOW HERE’S A TIP z Purchase New Year’s celebration items that are on sale in January if you have a family member graduating as a student in 2021. You can get all kinds of items for a fraction of the price, and you will be ready with all the 2021 things you need! z Got a neckache? Grab a pair of long socks, fill each with 2 cups of uncooked white rice and a couple of drops of your favourite essential oil. Knot the sock tightly to seal.

Microwave for up to 2 minutes, and test temperature before draping it over your shoulders to apply heat to sore muscles. It’s so nice, especially when you’re laying down. z Contributor J.P. advises that instead of using candles during a power outage – it can be dangerous! – try a battery-operated lantern instead. You can even use solar garden lights in a vase. You’d

be surprised how much they can light a room. z “If you’re storing clothes in a storage tote, put a sheet of fabric softener in as well. It can help repel bugs and keep the fabrics smelling fresh.” – M.W. z “Spray non-washable plush toys with dry shampoo to clean and freshen them. Rub vigorously with a terry towelling cloth to remove any extra residue and fluff up!”

– P.H. z Wrap a bit of sticky tape, sticky side out, around a straightenedout paper clip. You can GENTLY put it in the headphone jack of your mobile phone to get out lint that is otherwise inaccessible – but, for increased safety, don’t try this while your phone is charging.

Also, keep a lint-free cloth that comes with glasses handy to clean the screen of your smartphone.

Race to finals heats up

By GEOFF MANN Photos by MEL POCKNALL THE Whitney Cup enters an interesting stage in the run to the finals. RSL Colts are clear leaders with Macquarie and CYMS favoured to complete the top three.

Newtown is a win out of the finals at this stage while Rugby are 10 points behind and Souths a further six on the bottom of the ladder.

In Saturday’s results Colts 7/237 d Newtown 155, Souths 7/216 overcame Rugby 6/213 and CYMS 6/196 d Macquarie 110.

Meanwhile, Souths batsman

Michael McCarthy started the new year with a bang, blasting 56 to lead the Hornets to a morale-boosting win. It was just their third win of the season.

McCarthy’s knock was crucial as Souths chased down Rugby’s 6/213 with three wickets in hand.

RSL Colts extended their lead in the Whitney Cup after an easy win over Newtown while premier CYMS remain in equal second with Macquarie, five points clear of Newtown.

VALE DON ATTENBOROUGH

By Vince Williamson

By GEOFF MANN

THE outpouring of love for Don Attenborough was obvious when the Dubbo Ducks Swimmers gathered with the community to say farewell to a man who had reached out across the ages.

“Donny was a fun-loving, generous and kind-hearted man who shared his love for the outdoors with all of us. He was a bloke everyone wanted to travel with on our many visits to Austinmer, Harbord, Cobar, Lightning Ridge, Forbes and Condobolin. Every one of us has a story of three hundred to share,” Henry Wilcockson and Brian Scloeffel shared at the service held at Down the Lane.

Don had served as Club captain and president and

on the committee since commencing over forty years ago.

“He and wife Betty always said the Dubbo Ducks were family. They shared our joys and celebrations as well as the sadness’s of life in a rural community. Donny’s back garden was our tree of knowledge. The most difficult thing for us all was separating the tall tales from the facts!”

Moving tributes were paid by Betty and son Jack, daughter Sue and son-in-law Peter Williamson, as well as his grandsons Vince and Carl.

It was significant that Don passed away at the end of the Duck’s 60th anniversary.

Vince wrote a poem that captured the spirit of a unique human being.

Donny do all, as most knew him The king of Alfred St You couldn't help but like him A better bloke, you wouldn't meet

He was known as a bushman, a worker, a fisherman, Man who just wouldn't stop But he wasn't any of that to me He was my dear old pop.

We'd spend every school holidays in town with him and nan.

We would fool around all day long Him teaching us, to become a man.

He would rub his whiskers up on your face And laugh and laugh with glee While you pretended to not like it Although anyone could see.

He would take us to the forest To get loads of wood for the fire But the back shed had five years of wood And we had no desire.

Swimming on a Sunday He would take us to the ducks I can still hear Max and him You've broke again, well I'll be... buggered Volunteering showing animals Round and round the zoo.

The poor old bloody visitors He'd make up more than he ever knew.

Camping every chance we got Make us take cold showers on the river.

Most nights it got to midnight, To get rid of the shiver.

I can't recall him scorning us For the silly things we did.

I reckon he might have had it worse With his own three bloody kids.

We're left now with the memories Me, Karl, Nin and Magoo They have shaped us, Made us, who we are I know this much as true.

The time we spent at Alfred St We will never forget.

They have touched so many hearts Our Donny and our Bet.

Nan said he was most proud of his family I'd look around and wonder why But Donny I am proud to have been your mate and for now we will say goodbye.

Jack leads as flock flies home

By GEOFF MANN

CYMS winger Jack Allen is using his Sunday morning swims to help prepare him for the upcoming season. His pre-season follows the lead of another footballing Duck, Ron Soden.

Jack is no stranger to the pool having claimed the full suite of medals at national titles over the years.

On Sunday he showed why, taking out the Henderson’s Menswear January Trophy with a near perfectly timed race.

Jack placed in all events except the brace relay and

to top off a good morning also had one of the lucky numbers!

“Jack is always happy and enthusiastic, both in and out of the pool and it's great to welcome him each week,” Judy Walsh said.

Twenty-eight Ducks were at the pool on Sunday, reflecting on the year just gone and the recent passing of stalwarts Don Attenborough and Ross Tomlins.

Judy says there was an intriguing sub-plot on the pond.

“A little sibling rivalry between Max and Lilah Naden saw then both

swim particularly well to get first and second in the final of the 25 metre Freestyle. Jack Allen was a fly in the ointment when he just pipped the Naden’s’ granddad Tom Gray out of third,” Judy laughed.

Tom was happy with his win in the gruelling 25metre Butterfly.

“He is one of the very few in the flock who can still manage to get his wings over. The rest have adapted their own styles.

Many resemble dying ducks,” Judy added Plans are underway for the AIF Western Districts Carnival at Forbes on Sunday, February 14.

Dragons back on Macquarie

By GEOFF MANN THE Dubbo Outback Dragons started paddling in the more slightly inflated river from their sheds at Sandy Beach last week.

Paddlers are looking forward to a more productive year after the challenges of 2020.

“We are heading to Parkes at the end of June to participate in an 8km race on the Reservoir. We expect up to 40 members will head down the Newell and compete as two teams,” publicity officer Chris Robinson said.

Outback Dragons has

61 members – men and women – and Chris says they love seeing their new members getting an opportunity to participate in a competition.

“We paddle from Sandy Beach downstream to the weir and back to Sandy and then a shorter trip to complete a 60-minute paddle each Tuesday and Saturday.”

Chris outlined the clubs plans to compete at Canberra, Port Macquarie, Cairns and Perth this year, conditions permitting.

“Fingers crossed,” Chris smiled.

SPORT

By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE list of Dubbo Cycle Club milestones achieved on outgoing president Matt Gilbert’s watch of just four years, makes his retirement from the role, a photo finish.

Boasting incredible achievements by the club’s riders, a gut wrenching move from the club’s ancestral home track at No. 1 oval, the construction of a new facility and, being named Australia’s number one club; Mr Gilbert can reflect on his tenure with a lot of satisfaction, gratitude for the dedication of the club’s members and also, unwavering thanks to his father for passing on a love of cycling.

“My father rode, and it would have been wonderful to share all these experiences, sadly we lost him in 2008, but I know that he would be well pleased with the work that has been done,” Mr Gilbert said.

“He won the “5 Mile Scratch race” in 1955 and rode on Victoria Park No.1 and so did my kids William and Christopher which made me extremely proud; as well as myself, coached

by Gus Dawson.

“My father and uncles raced, and all were considered heroes of the family. I started rolling around in 1990 with my father and James Lago, who went on to represent Australia at the World Titles and still a good friend.

“At the time the cycling was extremely strong in Dubbo and NSW with riders at state level attending world titles, breaking world records and riding at the Olympics so winning was very tough but I did ride lots of carnivals with my favourite race being handicap racing such as the Bob Spear Memorial Wheel race, 4-hour Madison in Wagga and criteriums across the state.”

In 2017, the usual roles of club president and committee members were turned on their head when the club read first in a newspaper, that their historic home track was to be removed.

“It came as a shock and the fact that it occurred the way it did was extremely disappointing considering we were the best and the longest surviving track in NSW. Sadly, the track had no historical evaluation put on it considering its rich history as the home of the first Australian cycling world champion in 1920, Bob Spears.

With Mr Gilbert at the helm, the club needed a focused and dedicated group that dealt with all reoccurring activities of the club and all the requirements to produce a high-quality cycling facility.

“Between Gus Dawson, Jason Farr and myself we were making imperative decisions on a weekly basis that simply had to be made quickly to work with the fast-moving nature of the building of new infrastructure.

“The track currently sits at international standard which is far higher than first intended. For a flat velodrome to be at that standard it matches some of the best such as those in Japan,” Mr Gilbert said.

Despite the extraordinary challenges of the last four years – COVID 19 closing the track for a time, included – he regards the demands of the role as an honour, especially when the club was named number one in Australia.

“To my knowledge no sporting club in Dubbo’s History has been named number one club in Australia and It came at a time when we were under the most amount of pressure which shows to the enormous capacity of the Dubbo Cycle Club that I have come to know so well.

“To represent the Dubbo Cycle Club at the Australian Cycling Awards for the national club premiership is an astonishingly high

Photo finish for club president

point for the club and one that I will remember for as long as I live.”

He also managed to be awarded a Dubbo Day Award and is a first recipients of the Electorate award.

Beyond the accolades he enjoys above all, seeing junior riders reach their true potential.

In his time as president riders in the club have achieved a combined 58 gold, 30 silver and 28 bronze national titles. At Oceania level; it’s been 4 gold and 2 silver.

Accumulated state titles amount to 110 gold, 80 silver and 49 bronze.

Since 2017 five Australian records were made by riders in the club.

“I have to reiterate the words of Gus and say that I thoroughly enjoy seeing kids grow up and realise their true potential and hope that in some way I have been able to help them achieve that.”

Looking forward, Mr Gilbert says Cycling NSW has shown interest in performance camps in Dubbo and running state level events at the new facility.

“I would like to see lots more racing and social events for all cyclists as well as being a haven for families to learn to ride confidently and safely.

“The past four years have been a huge commitment to see things through, but I firmly believe that it is incumbent on active members of the community to produce high quality sporting facilities so that the youth in particular reap the lifelong rewards that sport can give.

I do feel Dubbo needs an independent sporting commission to oversee involvement and support of all kids in all sports in Dubbo to combat the constant battle against screen time, antisocial behaviour, mental health and overall wellbeing.

“Older members of the club and lovers of sport take great solace in seeing riders reach their full potential and I give testament to the treasure of sharing such special moments as I have been fortunate enough to have,” Mr Gilbert said.

Ben O’Brien is the new Dubbo Cycle Club president.

“He’s a very capable person. Ben is an excellent new captain of our wonderful club; he is very well organised and flanked with a larger dedicated team will take the club to new heights.”

Research conducted by Lumen comparing the currency of attention across media formats shows that the average print ad is Āƴå ƋĜĵåŸ ĵŅųå likely to get noticed than even the best performing digital ads.

Consumers give newspapers their undivided attention and actively consume content.

8. Regular readers have strong spending power According to a report from The Works, regular newspaper readers earn aboveaverage salaries.

Regular print readers earn more than the typical Australian. Their average salary is $84,178 pa, which outstrips by $8697 the wage earned by the average non-newspaper reader ($75,481 pa).

Advertisers looking to reach the wealthiest shoppers should be in their local newspaper.

9. Newspapers are immediate and timely Short deadlines allow ads to run faster. This makes newspapers a great environment for topical advertising, and perfect for brands that are market sensitive.

10. Flexible medium = unlimited creative possibilities From a tiny space, to multiple ads on a page, to double page spreads, you can create almost any ad you want. + This research has been collated by NewsMediaWorks of which Dubbo Photo News is a member.
