WELL-BEING FOR THE WORLD JUNE 21 is International Day of Yoga and imagine the sort of world we’d have if all our political decisions were agreed upon by wellness practitioners, advocates and educators! According to the United Nations, the organisation that proclaimed the theme for the world-wide day of recognition: “The message of Yoga in promoting both the physical and mental well-being of humanity has never been more relevant. A growing trend of people around the world embracing Yoga to stay healthy and rejuvenated and to ﬁght social isolation and depression has been witnessed during the pandemic. Yoga is also playing a signiﬁcant role in the psycho-social care and rehabilitation of COVID-19 patients in quarantine and isolation. It is particularly helpful in allaying their fears and anxiety.” This week local Yoga guru Kate Astill spoke to us about the importance of a balanced life through the prism of the yoga ethos.

SHINING A SPOTLIGHT COUNCIL WATCH By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY PINNACLE Integrity has been named as the firm which will undertake an independent investigation into the way complaints have been handled by Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) during this current term. The move was sparked after seven councillors called on former mayor Ben Shields to resign after numerous allegations of misconduct were brought to the attention of his fellow elected members. The motion passed on Tuesday evening read, in part, That Pinnacle Integrity be engaged to undertake the Independent Enquiry Investigation and that the report

be made available publically, with the exception of Appendix 2 on the original report which must remain confidential. On its website, the company labels itself “The Integrity Management Specialists” and states: “Pinnacle Integrity is able to promptly manage and resolve a range of issues from sex-based harassment, workplace grievances, bullying, sexual misconduct, corporate fraud and workplace injuries. “We sensitively address issues, irrespective of the political, public or competitive environment. We have extensive experience working across the industrial landscape. “We provide objective advice complemented by comprehensive, objective and independent

reports provided to assist in resolving workplace issues and conflict,” the company states. “Pinnacle Integrity reports highlight the level of professionalism and independence that demonstrate the critical procedural fairness and objectivity

necessary in managing misconduct. Our reports are routinely presented in Federal and State industrial jurisdictions and Administrative Tribunals,” it says. Pinnacle touts itself as having Local Government investigation specialists who have conducted

scores of investigations for councils across NSW. The company says its specialists have over 20 years’ experience working directly with councils and understand council governance and regulatory frameworks including Local Government Act 1993, Local Government (General) Regulation 2005, Public Interest Disclosures Act 1994 (NSW), Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979; Independent Commission Against Corruption Act 1988. Mayor Cr Stephen Lawrence told the extraordinary meeting that the company came highly recommended. At this stage, all matters remain under investigation and there is no suggestion that any negative findings have been reached.

Funding to boost regional tourism TOURIST attractions that could put regional towns on the map and improve accessibility for people with disability are set to receive a significant funding boost. Dubbo MP Dugald Saunders announced this week that applications are open for the $30 million Regional Tourism Activation Fund to deliver new or upgraded tourism infrastructure. He said the fund will support the construction of new iconic visitor experiences or unique event spaces, boosting the profile of regional NSW and giving people even more reasons to take a holiday in the regions. “Our region is one of the premium tourism destinations in NSW, but there is always more that can be done so I’m encouraging local councils and tourism operators to come forward and apply for funding,” he said. Applications open June 16 and close on August 11.

Decent highway one step closer By JOHN RYAN THERE may be some medium-term relief in sight for Dubbo motorists travelling to and from Sydney. After years of road budgets heavily prioritising highways such as the Pacific and Hume, the state and federal governments are now committing funding towards “congestion-busting improvements to the journey over the Blue Mountains”. Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure, Transport and Regional Development Michael McCormack said the commonwealth is turbocharging the Great Western Highway Upgrade with a $2.03 billion funding contribution, announced in the 202122 Budget. Mr McCormack said construction on the upgrade between Katoomba and Lithgow is on track to start next year. “The Australian Government is backing in the plan to transform the Great Western Highway, because we know what a difference this landmark project will make each and every day to communities in the Blue Mountains and west of the Divide,” the Deputy Prime Minister said. “This project will end the gridlock and deliver safer, more reliable journeys along the highway.” The state’s regional roads minister Paul Toole said the upgrade is already taking shape. “This is the last major highway out of Sydney that’s not du-

al-carriageway, and that’s not good enough for the thousands of motorists from Sydney, the Blue Mountains and the Central West who use it,” Mr Toole said. “The NSW Government has put $2.5 billion on the table to transform journeys along the Great Western Highway – and with the Australian Government’s $2 billion funding boost for the East and West sections, a project that has been put in the ‘too hard’ basket for far too long is fast coming to life and will see shovels in the

ground at the end of next year. “The NSW Government is also pushing ahead with work on the Central section including investigations into building Australia’s longest road tunnel from Blackheath to Little Hartley, cutting out the Victoria Pass and Blackheath gridlocks during peak hours.” Calare MP Andrew Gee said the federal government is committed to improving access between Sydney and the Central West as people continue to move to and visit regional

NSW, and regional businesses enjoy a boom in productivity. “A strong, reliable and safe connection over the Mountains is critical to ensure more people can travel to and from regional NSW for work and tourism,” Mr Gee said. “That’s why the Australian Government has invested in the East and West sections, which will be the first to kick off with designs to be released to the community in coming weeks – which means motorists will benefit sooner.”

IN BRIEF

3000 plus test for Covid-19

THE DAY FLEW PAST THIS amazing photo by Grace Walker was taken near Narromine’s aerodrome just on sunset and what a spectacular sunset view it was. The plane in the photograph is a Legend Cub MOAC from Dubbo’s Wings Out West, and this aircraft certainly did have its wings out to the west as the setting sun so amply shows.

NEWS ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN MORE than 3000 people came forward for Covid-19 testing between Thursday, June 10, and Tuesday, June 15, and Western NSW Local Health District chief executive Scott McLachlan has praised local communities. “The communities of Coonabarabran, Dubbo, Forbes and Parkes really rallied behind the call to come forward for testing,” the health boss said. NSW Health has also contributed its two-bob’s worth, thanking the communities in areas visited by two cases of Covid-19, who travelled from Victoria through Dubbo to Queensland while potentially infectious, for their excellent response to calls for increased testing.

Gin Gin water woes By JOHN RYAN THE debate surrounding the controversial heightened weir proposal at Gin Gin near Trangie is heating up with a planned public meeting set down for Dubbo on June 23. Healthy Rivers Dubbo convenor Mel Gray told Dubbo Photo News that Professor Richard Kingsford will join an impressive line-up of speakers at the public meeting, sparked by widespread community concern about the proposed Gin Gin re-regulating dam on the Macquarie River. “Professor Kingsford’s expertise covers river ecology, water use in Australia, wetland ecology, waterbirds, river policy,

and dam building affect,” Ms Gray said. “The Gin Gin dam would be a massive $84 million subsidy to the irrigated cotton industry. Downstream irrigators, graziers and businesses that cater to recreational fishing in

the valley would all take a huge financial hit. “There have been increasing calls for Dugald Saunders MP and the NSW Nationals to release the business case to the public once it is complete. What are they trying to

hide?” The public meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 23 from 6.30pm at Dubbo’s Pastoral Hotel, with other speakers to include Tony Lees from the Trangie Aboriginal Land Council, gra-

zier Garry Hall who’s a private Ramsar Wetland Manager and Inland Rivers Network president Bev Smiles. Ms Gray says the dam proposal is expected to reduce water downstream for unregulated irrigation, and have a serious impact on populations of native fish. “The public (is) encouraged to come along to the Pastoral Hotel with their questions about the impacts the proposal would have on the river, the marshes and all of the people and wildlife that rely on them.” For further details about the event contact Mel Gray 0431 471 310 or email healthyriversdubbo@gmail.com

“NSW Health continues to urge anyone who resides or works in or has visited these areas since June 1 to be especially vigilant for the onset of even the mildest of cold-like symptoms, and to get tested immediately and isolate should they occur,” was the message sent to Dubbo Photo News. At this stage, hopefully, it looks like inland NSW has dodged a bullet when it comes to no-one seeming to contract the virus from that selfish couple who left lockdown and passed through this area. I can’t understand why the authorities don’t issue huge fines to people who knowingly, premeditatively, do the wrong thing, because so many livelihoods, and potentially lives, can be put at risk by that sort of behaviour.

Honours in order for humble community champion By JEN COWLEY

WHEN we contacted Dubbo’s newest Member of the Order of Australia to ask if we could visit to do a story, she had to consult her diary and slot us in between commitments, agreeing to our request “as long as you promise to make it quick”. Shirley Stonestreet OAM, mother, great-grandmother, friend and all-round civic stalwart is a busy girl. At a spritely 88, Mrs Stonestreet has dedicated most of her life not only to her family but to her home town and her fellow citizens, so it was only fitting that she be named in this year’s Queen’s Birthday Honours list for service to the community of Dubbo. Not that she thinks she deserves all the fuss, but such is the nature of the honour that it most often goes to those who don’t seek or pursue it. “I was absolutely flabbergasted,” Mrs Stonestreet said of first learning of the impending honour, bestowed for her unwavering commitment to serving others through a range of organisations. “You don’t volunteer because you’re looking for a pat on the back,” she assures us, adding that she initially told “them” (the awards co-ordinators) she didn’t want any media coverage but that she’s made a special exception for Dubbo Photo News. “Volunteering isn’t just about a single person – there are other people you work with in a team. It’s not just been me – it’s been a collective effort with so many other people over the years.” Mrs Stonestreet’s contribution to the community of Dubbo is well recognised – from her dedication to such organisations as Probus and VIEW, among others – but her commitment to volunteering began when she was a young mum of three. “Back in Leadville when the children were going to school, a neighbour and I began holding fetes to raise money for the school.

Shirley Stonestreet, who was named as a recipient of the Order of Australia Medal (OAM) in last weekend’s Queen’s Birthday Honours, says it’s essential to pass the baton of a volunteering spirit on to younger generations. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY

“Then when we moved to Dubbo we became involved with scouting, and that was the start of my scouting career,” she says of a volunteer ‘job’ with the famed movement that spanned more than four decades and took her from Scouting Mum to Regional Commissioner of the Golden West Region, covering from Lithgow to Broken Hill. “I guess I’m still involved because I’ve been privileged to be made an honourary member.” Volunteering and serving one’s

community are traits Mrs Stonestreet has instilled in her children, all three of whom have the spirit of “giving back” running through their veins and have followed their remarkable Mum’s example into civic life. Passing that baton is something about which she remains passionate. “It’s essential to give the younger generation a good start – they’re the ones who are going to be our country’s future. “If you can give them a good

foundation to work from and the right mentality to achieve as much as they possibly can, that’s so important.” With her Order of Australia, this inspirational octogenarian hopes to help shine a light on the value of volunteers. “It’s an honour, it really is,” she says. “But more than that, it draws attention to volunteers and what they’re involved with and what they give to society.” Mrs Stonestreet is keen to showcase the contribution of volunteers from organisations such the Scouts and VIEW – which incidentally stands for Voice, Interest and Education of Women. “These are things people might have heard of or know vaguely about, but they don’t necessarily know much about what those organisations do. An award like this gives us an opportunity to inform people and encourage people to give back to their community.” On behalf of that grateful community, Dubbo Photo News says a hearty “Thank you and congratulations, Shirley Stonestreet OAM.” ••• ALSO named at the weekend in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list for 2021 were a number of other remarkable people from around our region who have contributed significantly to their communities. Tooraweenah batted well above average this year, with two locals awarded the Order of Australia Medal (OAM) in the general division. Jill Blackman was honoured for her service to the community of Gilgandra, while fellow Tooraweenah local Margaret Zell has similarly dedicated many decades of her life to supporting her town and its residents. Peak Hill’s Leanne Heywood was awarded an OAM for her services to business through a range of organisations, while Susan Nicholls of Gulgong has also added the letters to her name, honoured for her service to the community.

A super meeting hears things are getting tough for retirees By JOHN RYAN FOR local people who saved to retire, things are pretty tough according to Dubbo Orana Combined Pensioners and Superannuants Association president Ken Windsor. Dubbo Photo News caught up with the group which has a regular meeting every second Friday. “We have interesting guest speakers and we talk about the issues that affect elderly people in the Dubbo district,” Mr Windsor said, pointing out it’s important for a sense of fellowship and information sharing to have regular meetings. “We get the odd person who has really been driven by the authorities to a point where they’re really suffering and we can help them get out of that situation. “We have a head office in Sydney and they are a lobby group both with the state and federal governments. They do a great job advocating for us. “Often we have members who have been in a similar position, or have had a similar experience, and they can also help. It’s what we’re all about and it’s group therapy because everybody gets together and

they’re not afraid to speak about what’s going on. We encourage that.” Mr Windsor says the lack of meetings during the worst of last year’s Covid lockdowns really brought the importance of the regular CPSA meetings to the fore. “I was getting phone calls almost daily asking when we’d be meeting again and we missed about four meetings but then we started meeting in rooms that had a good Covid procedure and we were able to maintain the flow,” he said. Mr Windsor said it’s been an incredibly challenging environment for retirees, with interest rates almost in negative territory for people with investments, with costs going up and almost zero return on money in the bank, making planned retirements a rocky road. “It’s more than difficult. It’s almost unbearable in some instances. (For) investments in super funds the returns were so small and the fees to manage them were going up that it was better to take it out and put it into fixed deposits in the bank and they’re still returning less than one per cent – that money isn’t maintaining its value.”

Ken Windsor says the retirement landscape is incredibly tough at the moment, with interest rates at record lows for people who planned and invested their savings, yet ﬁxed living costs seem to be constantly on the rise. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS

DRAFT DUBBO REGIONAL LOCAL ENVIRONMENTAL PLAN Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) as required by the state government, has prepared the draft Dubbo Regional Local Environmental Plan (LEP). The draft LEP is a consolidation of the existing planning controls of the former Wellington Shire and Dubbo City Councils. Until this point, DRC has been operating under two separate LEPs, and now needs to consolidate the two, so it is following one set of planning controls. The draft LEP will guide planning and land use activities within the LGA, including development, heritage, conservation, agricultural usage and the zoning of land for the LGA. To find out how the draft LEP might affect you and your property, head to dubbo.nsw.gov.au/lep before 30 June 2021 to have your say and book an appointment with our planning staff.

Mayors want new health ministry COUNTRY mayors want a new state government ministry of Regional and Rural Health, similar to the already established portfolio for Regional Transport and Roads, which gives specific attention to the provision of resources for those services. The Country Mayors Association (CMA) says recent surveys of its members have identified health as a major issue for rural communities, and points to the fact that there are significant differences between health services provided to metropolitan areas compared with regional centres, and between those larger centres and small country towns and remote communities. The CMA is encouraging residents in regional areas to “get behind this initiative” by contacting Premier Gladys Berejiklian with support for the proposed new portfolio.

SENIORS FIND SECURITY IN Oak Tree Dubbo residents Rhondda & David

Regional Retirement

As trends from around Australia indicate, one ripple effect of the pandemic has seen house prices surge in regional areas as increasing numbers of people seek a more laidback lifestyle over the hustle of living in big cities. But it’s not only the new wave of those working from home who are taking up residence in regional areas; retirees are also continuing to realise the benefits of a quieter post code. With a strong regional footprint, the Oak Tree Group is experiencing this spike in demand first hand. Amid this increased interest, it has also brought an increased sense of urgency, a clear shift in the mindset of seniors now bringing forward their decision to move to a retirement community. Peace-of-mind and an attractive lifestyle are just some of key drivers fuelling many seniors’ decision to turn to an Oak Tree village. Amidst all the uncertainty of the pandemic, our retirement villages can offer security in both the physical and financial sense. The unique structure of our model insulates owners from the volatility of the

wider property market, while our fixed-fee arrangement provides budget certainty. Within the village, the gated community provides a higher level of security, while the boutique size encourages familiarity with neighbours. The friendly, welcoming atmosphere will make you feel right at home in next to no time. Throughout the pandemic, the need to have both lifestyle amenities and a support network close at hand has been more prominent than ever. Having quality retirement options in regional areas allows seniors to settle in areas you know – where you’ve put down roots and have friends and family nearby – without the need to relocate. Maintaining a sense of social connection, particularly for seniors, has never been more important. And with purpose-built recreation facilities and close proximity to nearby shops and services, you’ll have everything you need to socialise with new and old friends, indulge your hobbies, try new things, and generally spend more time doing the things you love within a safe proximity to home.

By JOHN RYAN

DUBBO was the centre of attention for positive social and environmental impacts as Local Landcare Coordinators from across the state congregated at the Hub of the West for the organisation’s first gathering in more than two years. Members of the state-wide network of Local Landcare Coordinators spend much of their time working in isolation or small teams and Covid restrictions in 2020 saw the annual event cancelled. Landcare NSW CEO Adrian Zammit says it’s the profusion and overflow of ideas at the gatherings that sparks a synergy of collaborative thought, which can then flow into on-the-ground action. “These gatherings are critical in terms of bringing the Landcare community together in one spot,” Mr Zammit told Dubbo Photo News. “It allows us to form social bonds and get to know each other on a personal basis and also to exchange ideas about what’s working really well and what’s not and collaboratively discuss what else we can do to actually empower Landcare. “When you gather together you have a lot of conversations happening over morning tea, over lunch, over dinner, down the corridor, those sorts of conversa-

NEWS

tions can’t be replicated using video-conferences so getting together is just so essential to be able to amplify those conversations that we have as a community.” He said the informality of the organisation’s culture sparks so much in the way of innovation to quickly grasp fleeting opportunities and believes just like any other business, it’s really all about social connections and relationships. “Once you form relationships, that’s the grease in the wheels that gets the ideas going and people then are just so willing to work together and that in turn generates ideas, it generates energy and positivity and things really get going,” he said, emphasising the outlook in this space is incredibly optimistic. “Everybody’s obviously very

upbeat. The countryside’s looking green but there’s a certain energy within the Landcare community to get things going,” Mr Zammit said. “Apart from the breaking of the drought we believe Landcare is in a really good spot to take advantage of opportunities that are around with carbon markets and environmental goods and services as more and more focus is being put on the need to look after our environment and sustainable farming.” He also believes the strategic landscape is evolving with many people in the mainstream having had a rethink of their priorities when it comes to an appreciation for healthy soils and hopes to make communities more resilient when it comes to providing local food and produce.

“I think we’ve had a number of events that really lined up the planets for us. The change of administration in the USA, the bushfires, the drought, floods, the mice plague, Covid...we’ve got everything lining up which has focussed the general community’s attention on the need to look after our environment,” he said. “So now governments, big corporations, all need to really take care of how they are performing environmentally and socially.” He believes Landcare NSW is now seen as an incredible, organic network that’s survived for so many years and now it’s building partnerships like never before. “Before, we used to have to go to prospective partners to actually get anything done. Now partners are coming to us and that’s a real shift I’m seeing. “Landcare is now building a particular structure and reputation and brand and people are taking note that this is a wonderful network of highly capable, highly skilled people with strong social connections that can get real work done on the ground.”

RURAL Crime Investigators and members from the Department of Primary Industry’s Game and Licensing Unit conducted Operation Ambush over the June long weekend as part of an ongoing operation in the vast Western Region targeting illegal hunting and trespassing, along with related rural crime offences. A large number of patrols were conducted throughout the Dubbo and Mudgee areas with several persons detected hunting. Police conducted vehicle stops/ searches and inspected hunting dogs and equipment. Several legal actions will be taken in relation to these breaches, including drug and dog offences. Additionally, Rural Crime Investigators were also able to interact with local landholders who were happy to see them – it’s vital that the channels of communication between cops and farmers are opened and strengthened, with landholders capable of being the eyes and ears needed on the ground to report any and all suspicious activity in the more isolated rural areas.

New shadows in cabinet reshuffle

New state Labor leader Chris Minns at Greg Warren’s Campbelltown electorate office. PHOTO: SUPPLIED

By JOHN RYAN FORMER Dubbo resident Greg Warren has kept his spot in the shadow cabinet after a reshuffle by new state opposition leader Chris Minns. Mr Warren, who grew up and went to school in Dubbo before joining the Australian Army said he was “humbled to join so many talented colleagues and remain as NSW Labor’s shadow minister for Local Government, Veterans and Western Sydney”.

Mr Minns said his new team offers a positive and energetic alternative to the tired, 10-year-old coalition. “I have given our new team a challenge – let’s show the people of NSW what is possible in this State. Let’s be positive and optimistic,” Mr Minns said. “This team is the future of Labor in NSW. It represents a new generation with ideas, energy and innovation.” The new Labor leader said education and early childhood learn-

ing will be elevated as a priority in the Shadow Cabinet with the portfolio held by Deputy Leader Prue Car. Thirteen of 27 members of Labor’s frontbench are women. Jodie Harrison will serve as Shadow Minister for Women and for the Prevention of Domestic and Sexual Violence. Former Leader Jodi McKay appreciated the offer to serve but indicated a preference to stay on the back bench and focus on her electorate of Strathfield.

The new Shadow Cabinet elevates a number of young Labor MPs – Daniel Mookhey as Shadow Treasurer, Jo Haylen as Shadow Transport and Paul Scully as Shadow Planning. The Minns Shadow Cabinet will include five Labor members elevated to the front bench for the first time – Anoulack Chanthivong, Steve Kamper, Rose Jackson, Courtney Houssos and Tim Crakanthorp. Michael Daley and Tania Mihailuk will also return to the Shadow Cabinet.

Laughs in DubVegas

DUBBO is set to play host to some of the nation’s funniest people when the Melbourne International Comedy Festival Roadshow rocks into town. Our city is one of 80 country destinations for the 2021 show with comedians keen to shake off the seclusion post-Covid and roll out the laughs at the Dubbo Regional Theatre and Convention Centre (DRTCC) tomorrow night. DRTCC Manager Linda Christof says the region has played host to some belly-laughing acts in recent weeks, and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival is sure to be up there with one of the funniest shows audiences from Dubbo and surrounding areas have come across. “We’re really excited to be able to bring this hilarious show to the region. “The Melbourne International Comedy Festival is one of the most well-known and popular comedy shows in the country, and to have the show coming (here) as one of our season shows is really great for our region,” said Ms Christof. The show will be hosted by Sam Taunton who will be joined by Floyd Alexander-Hunt, Nikki Britton, Randy Feltface and Takashi Wakasugi. Tickets to Melbourne International Comedy Festival can be purchased in person at the Box Office, 155 Darling Street or via phone (02) 6801 4378 during business hours, or by visiting the website drtcc.com.au.

Approaching the ﬁnal frontier SPACE is often described as the final frontier and it may well remain that way if nations like Australia can’t produce enough scientists and engineers to take advantage of the lightning jumps the human race is making in the technological sector. JOHN RYAN talks to Dubbo Leadership Academy principal Mandi Randell about the school’s free upcoming Space Camp these school holidays, and why it’s so important for this current generation of students to turn its eyes towards maths- and science-based subjects. ••• Tell us about the Space Camp in these school holidays? We received a grant from the Foundation for Regional and rural Renewal (FRRR) to put on an educational school holiday program to bring kids together and focus on the future. It has been a rough few years with bushfires, drought, then Covid and it has been really hard on kids. We wanted to create an opportunity to focus on innovation and exciting future prospects as a way to help propel kids who have been through tough times towards a brighter future. Why is learning about space and the science behind it so important for this generation of students? Science and STEM careers are in great demand and that flexible and innovative thinking is key to all aspects of our lives and economic development. We need big thinkers and big dreamers and understanding and appreciating the majesty of space is a great way to get kids hooked into the wonder of science. Technological innovations, innovations in medicine and telecommunications will all revolve around science and STEM careers and we have some of the brightest future scientists in Dubbo. I want to help them find their way to these amazing, rewarding, enriching careers that are fundamental to Australia’s future. You grew up and went to school in the USA. Tell us about the 1960s space race and how JFK’s pledge to land a man on the moon sparked a massive resource boom into US schools which built up a generation of scientists and engineers? Leadership in aerospace inspired a generation to dream big. Commitment on the national level to

achieve the previously unachievable was seared into the national psyche. We all made model rockets, we all wanted to go to space camp. The national cultural drive in valuing science inspired generations of scientific thinking and innovation whose reverberations are still felt today. What implication did that have for US education on the whole? STEM is as valued and needed as literacy. High schools in the US require two years of senior science because giving every student the opportunity to discover their aptitudes in the sciences allows the next generation of thinkers, tinkerers and dreamers to emerge who may not have known they have it in them. What is it about space that can capture a child’s imagination, and potentially steer them on a course into the scientiﬁc or engineering world? Space and dinosaurs, our past and our future, help to situate humanity’s story in the order of wonder and chaos that is the history of time. When we are young, we know no bounds and can see ourselves past the limitations of today. It allows us to harness possibility and the potential of our curiosity. How critically short are we when it comes to engineers and scientists in this region/state/nation? STEM careers are identified as

Australia’s major career skills gaps. In Dubbo alone, we will need a massive number of doctors, lab technicians, chemical and mechanical engineers, builders, town planners and the list goes on. Just on the advertised mining projects that are slated for Dubbo alone, there are literally hundreds of chemical and mechanical engineers, botanists, biologists, environmental scientists, (people who are skilled in) environmental law and legislation – the list is truly staggering. The defence forces are actively seeking drone pilots and engineers to innovate those important technologies in flight, communication, programming, cybersecurity and defence. The future is bright for STEM careers. Let’s harness the potential in our local talent and inspire them into their future by starting with the big dreams of space. Where are these qualiﬁed people going to come from? Right now, companies are thinking they will have to recruit people from urban areas but I think we can grow our own with our local talent. If we give kids the learning experiences that can enrich their potential, we can give them not only rewarding and needed career pathways, but enrich the social, cultural and economic fabric of Dubbo ensuring its prosperity well into the future. The Academy wants to bring

opportunities to children to help them find their way to becoming their personal best. We go out of our way to pair our students with local industry leaders so kids can find their way into amazing careers that require advanced training. I want them to grow up knowing the community values them and there is a place for their skills here. We do not need to board to have the best educational opportunities. We have the greatest minds in the country here and the Academy will work hard to develop them and inspire the kids of the region to dream big.

COUNCIL WATCH

Plan to have your say on future planning IF you want a say in how a Dubbo or a Wellington of the future looks, now’s your chance. The draft Dubbo Regional Local Environmental Plan (LEP) is now on the table, and community members are invited to take a look and provide feedback and input as to how planning, development, zoning, lot sizes and general controls on development might take shape in years to come. After the amalgamation of Dubbo and Wellington councils and until now, Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) has been operating under two separate LEPs, so consolidating the two makes sense to ensure that planning controls and provisions are consistent across the local government area. The draft LEP is on public exhibition until 30 June 2021, and the community is able to book an appointment with council’s staff to discuss how the changes might affect them. To view the draft Dubbo Regional LEP, book an appointment or have your say, visit www.dubbo. nsw.gov.au/lep 30 June 30.

No excuse for elder abuse: know the signs THIS week saw the world mark Elder Abuse Awareness Day, and here at home, Dementia Australia took the opportunity to call for all Aussies to familiarise themselves with the different forms of elder abuse and be vigilant on behalf of our most vulnerable people. The organisation said with the prevalence of dementia rising, the risk of elder abuse is an increasing concern. Different forms of elder abuse include physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, social and financial abuse as well as neglect. It’s important for people to know the warning signs, and to know how to respond if they suspect a family member, friend, neighbour or client is being abused. Please speak up if you suspect someone may be a victim – contact the national Elder Abuse Phone Line on 1800 353 374, which will connect you with the relevant service.

HOLISTIC HEALTH

Science by day, yoga by night By JEN COWLEY BY day, Kate Astill is a scientist – working at projects beyond the intellectual grasp of most mere mortals. At the end of the day, the towering blonde sheds the figurative white lab coat, slips into something more comfortable, literally, and stretches both her body and her work day. After hours, Kate is a yoga teacher. As a university qualified medical scientist, she progressed up the scientific food chain to project management and now works – in her own words – “with a team of development engineers to build a precision support tool for clinicians in virtual hospitals and in emergency departments to practically manage sepsis”. Alrighty then, I mumble, admitting I don’t profess to understand, but it sounds like an important field of medical endeavour. Kate has the grace to laugh. “It is,” she says, bending her six-and-a-bit-foot frame to light a semi-circle of candles around what she tells me are “sound bowls” which she uses in the mid-week evening class at her yoga studio. I comment on the seemingly unusual combination of gigs – from clinical scientific work to the undeniably softer field of the ancient physical practice of yoga – but when Kate explains it, the blend makes perfect sense, and there’s an obviously happy synergy between the two. “They absolutely relate,” she Kate Astill is a medical scientist by day, a yoga teacher by night, but she says. “My journey to teaching yoga says the seemingly unusual combination actually has a happy synergy in a holistic approach to health. PHOTO: DUBBO PHOTO NEWS/STEVE COWLEY was very much encouraged by the

self-development I could do through my work in medical science, with leadership opportunities, discovering mindfulness, emotional intelligence. “Having an interest in physiology and the body definitely helped with my yoga teaching – doing physiology at university certainly made the teacher training a much easier course to do and understand because I already knew how the body works. “My partner is a personal trainer, so through helping with his classes I also learned about the different terms for extension, flexion and the way the body moves.” That Kate chose to call her yoga business Raw Impact, gives a nod to the holistic approach that has seen such a harmonious marriage between her two fields of practice. “My mission is to impact the lives of people through empowerment, through self-care and to provide them with opportunities to discover the raw and authentic version of themselves.” Hers is a holistic approach to overall health, she explains, and says her yoga practice draws on other aspects of health science. “We approach mind, body and spirit here and we do that through yoga classes and additional workshops. We’ve run self-care retreats, incorporating other local small businesses in town to have things that are about self-care for the body – facials, energy healing, acupuncture, sound bowls – stuff for the mind, the body and the soul.”

Kate derives great fulfilment from both her fields of endeavour, but there’s a particular satisfaction she derives from seeing the direct result of her yoga practice. “It’s such a lovely way to build a community. When I first opened, everyone would come in and sit silently on their mats but now they’re chatting, getting to know one another, they’re networking outside the studio hours. “It’s also nice to see people’s progression with some of the physical poses we do – they’re challenging themselves more, building confidence, self-awareness, balance,” she says, stressing that it’s not so much about a “work-life” balance. “They’re working on their life balance. “The biggest thing is to teach people about mindfulness – about clearing the mind of all thoughts and just being present in the moment, not thinking about what you did today, or what’s for dinner or having to go home and do laundry.” Kate agrees mindfulness is now more important than ever, given the year the world has just endured. “Looking after our mental health has become a huge necessity since Covid, and there’s also that need for a sense of community because of people feeling isolated and not having their own tribe to go to and network with. “Just speaking about things and how you’re feeling is important and with yoga, you’re tuning in to how you’re feeling and what your body is saying. You’re listening and adapting.”

Sports job a world away from comfort zone By JOHN RYAN BRENDAN Martin spends his working days at Dubbo Sportsworld running sports competitions along with maintenance, cleaning and whatever else needs to be done. “I set up gear and other stuff for the various things we’ve got going on,” he told Dubbo Photo News. The 35-year-old is from Dubbo and worked at a few jobs including 12 years in the steel industry before finding his current niche. “I just felt I needed a change, something different. I was here for an Inflatable party with my young fella and had a bit of a yarn to Greg King (who) came up with something and I thought I’d have a bit of a go at it.” Brendan says he finds it appealing that when people arrive at Sportsworld they’re generally happy because they’re either at a party with their kids or playing sport with their friends, which generally makes for good moods. “It’s rewarding to see that you

come in and you do your job right and then the customers who are coming here for a purpose have a great time,” Mr Martin said. He saw how much fun his young bloke had at that initial Inflatable party and thought that if he was surrounded by that sort of positivity every day, it would make for a pretty satisfying work environment. “I also remember coming here as a kid for indoor cricket and with my school for sports so there’s some nostalgia when it comes to good times I’ve had here during my life. There’s a lot of good memories, so knowing that this generation of kids is coming up here and doing the same thing is great. “With Inflatable World now up here you’ve got that extra thing to make it fun for the kids. That’s something I wanted to be a part of.” At the steel business, Brendan said he had a great group of workmates and there were many great customers but believes the far greater number of daily interac-

tions he partakes in at Sportsworld have been great for his personal development. “I am a people person in the right environment. I guess I’ve got to feel comfortable, so being here, helping out at Inflatable World, I serve people at the counter and run the sports comps of a week. “I guess it was a little bit out of my comfort zone, but it’s something I wanted to take on and it was a challenge to me to get myself a little bit out of my shell,” he said. “I’ve found it makes me feel a lot more positive outside work as well. I’ve (developed) a lot of self-confidence within my day-today life. I can talk to 50 people a night and be happy and get along with everyone, so I can take that onboard in my day-to-day life and run with it as well. “It has been really positive for my family and me. We’re all enjoying the change.” Mr Martin says his family has noticed how positive the role has been for him and while his kids

come to play at Inflatable World, his wife now plays Three-onThree basketball with a few of her friends. “She’s never played before but she enjoys that and the kids come with her so they get to see me at work as well. Even though I’m working, I can still interact with them because the nature of this job is (to be) walking around, so they can hang out with me while I’m doing my jobs. It’s great for family. “I enjoyed my last job, it was

good (and there were) good people. I was there for 12 years and that place helped me a lot but I just needed something different. I felt like making the change a few times and I always worried I didn’t know what was on the other side. “I was safe where I was but the safe option isn’t always the better option. “Sometimes you have to take that leap and you never know where you’ll end up, you could be a lot happier. I know I’m a lot happier now.”

Leader at work, in life By JOHN RYAN GRAHAM Lyon says he’s very proud to have graduated from the Australian Rural Leadership Foundation’s Program. The program is an 18-month experiential training program aimed at improving leadership for the betterment of rural, regional and remote Australia and Graham believes it’s improved his capacity for giving back in all aspects of his life. “Our cohort met in the Kimberly, Fremantle and regional WA, Bendigo, Regional Australia for remote learning during ovid and we finished here in Dubbo recently,” he told Dubbo Photo News. “You go through an interview and selection process and then an organisation is asked to sponsor you. In my case the Australian Meat Processing Corporation

sponsored two participants in this course (of 26).” The Australian Rural Leadership Foundation doesn’t have a high profile in mainstream Australia, but Graham believes the course is vital to the nation as Australia is crying out for strong leaders in the bush. “The foundation is relatively unknown but has an increasing profile in regional Australia as the numbers of alumni swell to over 1000 people,” he said. “For me, the need for strong leaders in the bush is very clear. We are resilient, innovative and resourceful people and if we speak together as one through our networks in rural, regional and remote Australia, then we own our story and our future. “You’re not told much going into the course as the idea is to gain as much learning as you can from

the experience. I knew I was surrounded by great people and a great organisation and therefore I took the leap of faith. “The course absolutely delivers on all fronts. It is all about building capacity in rural and regional Australia, not about the individual and our intention is that our workplaces and communities all benefit from this program.” Graham says his workplace, Fletcher International, is always striving to improve on everything it can, in every aspect of the business, in every way, every day. He believes the course content and on-ground learning opens up the mind to absorb in the “now”, and implement when needed into the future by recognising when positive change can happen. “The key in this course is experiential learning – that is, deep learning that may not be required

immediately. You draw on the experiences of this learning depending on your situation and goals,” he said. “The learnings taught us about six main leadership practices – awareness, of self, others and systems – authenticity, to help be a positive influence on people and community beyond self – action, courage to influence and mobilise others for common good – adaption, open to alternative perspec-

tives, responsive to changing contexts – affiliation, aligning with others to deliver a common good and advocacy, championing a commitment to an action.” One program commences every year and 35 participants meet for five two-week sessions around Australia. You can apply for Course 29 on the Australian Rural Leadership Foundation website from July 429 this year.

Who attends your art classes? The residents of Kintyre - that’s what it’s all about. It’s lovely for them to have something a little bit different in their lives. I was asked if I would do it, and I said I would love to because I love helping and starting the residents off in the right direction.

How long have you been teaching and practising art? I did a fair bit of teaching oneon-one at home, one of the ladies helped me with the computer, and I helped her to paint. I’ve been practising ever since I was a kid. My mum said I was born with coloured pencils in my hands! It was just part of me and something I love. In my old age with my hands not being as good now, I can’t hold a brush anymore but I’m still doing little things and the yearning is still there.

What kind of feedback are you getting from your students? They’re really happy, I try to encourage them to give it a go and get used to putting pencil on paper. I like to do something different every time they come. We have about 15 people who attend and I go around to them all and give them my attention and help. I get pictures out of books, Australiana, birds and animals or something else they might like. I like to help them in any way I can to get

Farmers welcome trade deal with UK FARMER lobby groups have welcomed the ‘in-principle’ trade deal between Australia and the UK, with NSW Farmers Association claiming the introduction of Ag Visas for UK backpackers and tariff- and quota-free access for a range of produce grown in NSW will benefit the regions. NSW Farmers President James Jackson said the development of Ag Visas for workers from the UK and 10 ASEAN nations as part of the trade deal is welcome news. “It appears that working holiday makers from the UK will no longer be required to work on farms before being eligible to extend their stay,” Mr Jackson said. “This potentially could inspire an increase in backpacker numbers post international border restrictions, considering UK backpackers made up around 25 per cent of working holiday makers extending their stay into a second year. “This might be good news in the longer term for harvest and skilled labour, but it will not address the immediate need for farm workers in NSW.” Beef tariffs and sheepmeat tariffs will be eliminated after 10 years, sugar tariffs eliminated over eight years and dairy tariffs will be removed over five years. Rice growers will receive immediate duty-free access for short and medium grain milled rice when the agreement enters in force. “The UK is not a huge market for the agricultural sector, but now there is a real opportunity to diversify our export market potential.”

Our advertisers stay a step above the competition.

To the book fair and beyond! By NATALIE LEWIS STAFF and students flocked to the library at Orana Heights Public School on June 2 for the bi-annual book fair. Featuring a range of fiction and non-fiction books for young readers, the event was hosted with the help of children’s publisher, Scholastic Australia. Orana Heights teacher librarian Signe Bladt-Woicek enjoyed the spacethemed fair which featured encouraging expressions such as “To the book fair and beyond!”, and “Read-

ing is a blast!”. Miss Bladt-Woicek said it was great to see so many students browsing the selection. “There are some great new books,” she said. “Graphic novels are really popular, so are books on gaming such as Minecraft.” The best part of the book fair is that the school receives a per centage of the sales. “We get a commission which goes back to the library and all of the money goes into buying more Back, Miss Bladt-Woicek, Mrs Davies, Mrs Fuller, front, Sienna, Apryl, Charlotte, Khloe, Jaydah, books.” Jasmine and Mekenzie.

AFTER arguably the most challenging few years on record in the rural sector, the state’s farmers, including those across our region, are heading into winter with a renewed confidence, according to a survey conducted by agribusiness giant Rabobank. Completed last month, the survey found nearly 90 per cent of NSW farmers expect business conditions over the coming year to improve or remain similar to last year. Strong commodity prices were largely responsible for the sentiment, cited by 64 per cent of respondents who expected improved conditions, with this being particularly so among beef and sheep producers. Continuing excellent seasonal conditions in most regions, along with favourable interest rates were also factors contributing to the confidence in the coming year.

Historically, drinking tea increased the life expectancy of the British – and you’ll be even more surprised to learn why. It wasn’t any beneﬁcial compound found in the tea itself; rather, it was the act of boiling the water, which had the effect of killing pathogens found in the untreated water that was largely in use in England at that time.

INLAND RAIL TO SAVE $170 MILLION ANNUALLY IN TRANSPORT COSTS Shifting freight from road to Inland Rail for at least part of the journey could save $170 million in transport costs each year, according to the preliminary ﬁndings of CSIRO’s Inland Rail Supply Chain Mapping Study. This will mean businesses like Concrete World Industries could make savings of up to 39 per cent on freight when moving their product. It was great to visit the team in Dubbo with my National Party Leader and Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack recently to hear about their plans for expansion.

Housing crisis – advice sought WELL-KNOWN real estate agent Bob Berry was slated to speak at last week’s Housing Availability Forum in Dubbo but was forced to self-isolate after being near a site around the time the Covid-positive couple from Victoria visited on their horror trip along the Newell Highway. In his absence Graeme Board delivered the address – here is an abbreviated version of that speech. ••• ON behalf of the Real Estate Institute of NSW (REINSW) Orana division we commend Dubbo Regional Council (DRC) for hosting today’s Housing Availability Forum and bringing the whole of the residential sector together. Regional NSW in the last year has seen a significant change in residential housing, both in the sales and rental sectors. Just 15 months ago at the time of the first Covid lock down, ‘doom and gloom’ was predicted for housing. It never arrived and regional NSW has led our nation in the performance of the residential housing sector for growth in demand in both sales and rentals. Dubbo is both a beneficiary and a victim of the regional housing performance, however, we must solve our problems in our own patch. One can quantify in a few words the task for Dubbo, starting at this forum, that is, to increase the supply and density of housing. Our members look to move forward, and we see the challenges not as problems but as opportunities for Dubbo. However, we will just quickly reflect on two issues: a) In 2005, in being invited by Council to serve on the working party for the residential review of urban areas, the REINSW said in our submission that Dubbo is very well served in all forms of detached residential housing, and our housing estates are as good as any regional city. However, Dubbo lacks choice of flexible housing types, particularly in medium density housing. The REINSW has maintained the same narrative since, and the challenges of 2005, remain 16 years later. b) Over the last seven years in Dubbo, politics seems to have taken preference over planning and people in determining housing outcomes. Hopefully, those days

have gone. Dubbo is facing a housing outlook not seen within the last 50 years’ growth in the city. It will take a new approach from all stakeholders in the residential housing sector, as the old policies will no longer achieve the outcomes required for an adequate supply of housing for the community. All stakeholders will be reliant on Dubbo Regional Council to provide the leadership, the collaboration and the vision for housing the community. Dubbo Regional Council is the only entity in Dubbo with the capacity to institute change and create the HOUSING POLICIES for the next decade needed to meet the current and anticipated demand created by future developments. The 2005 REINSW submission to Council, predominately focused on the identified needs of the ageing population seeking smaller size housing to downsize. Many prospective buyers never

obtained their requirements. In the 16 years since there has been much change in the demand we are now experiencing. There is a demand from the young professionals, in the health, services and other sectors, seeking secure housing without the requirement to maintain grounds. The consumers of one and two bedroom rental flats/ units still exist and there is a community obligation to provide sufficient accommodation to house this sector, many of whom fit into the lower socio-economic demographic. Our members believe all these demands must be catered for, and Council has land available for medium density use. It just needs vision and commitment from Council to produce outcomes. The latest rent figures for the March quarter will be distributed today and reveal a consistent trend in rents, across the 6 main inland regional cities. REINSW is only one stakehold-

THE Wilderness Society is breaking new ground with a running event in the Pilliga Forest set to raise awareness and funds to save the landscape from Coal Seam Gas (CSG) extraction. “Join us on a challenge over breathtaking rocky outcrops, stunning views and rare eucalypt woodlands,” the spiel goes as the society asks runners to sign up now for this life-changing run through the unique and wild forests of the state’s North West. The three newly created trail running events (5km, 20km and 50km) aim to raise money and awareness to support The Wilderness Society’s campaign to protect the Pilliga Forest and its communities from what it says is damaging fossil fuels and to “bring the nation closer to a liveable environmental future”. Organisers claim the Pilliga Ultra is an opportunity to make your voice heard and to show the “future of this forest is worth more standing tall and free than depleted and extracted”.

The forum saw a wide cross section of participants including real estate agents, state government agency staff, land developers, council staff and business people and councillors attend; Left: DRC Mayor Cr Stephen Lawrence addressed the forum and spoke of the clear need for a stakeholder reference group to be set up and advise council on the best way forward to ensure housing needs are met across the region.

er in the residential housing sector, but we can provide statistics and trend demands on a regular basis. It is a well-known saying that if you want to know what is happening in real estate anywhere, go and talk to the agents conducting open homes on any Saturday morning. There are about 25/30 open homes in Dubbo on any given Saturday. It is the housing consumers attending inspections of sale and rental property who shape the views of REINSW members. I thank Dubbo Regional Council for the invitation to Orana division of REINSW to attend and participate in the forum today. Today’s forum will not solve all supply issues, but it is at least a recognition there is a housing supply problem and Council can now chart a new set of housing policies to address the issues. REINSW Orana members stand ready to work with Council and all other stakeholders in this task.

IT’S A RECORD! Harnaam Kaur from the UK first appeared in Guinness World Records 2017 as the record holder for the youngest female with a full beard. She was aged 24 years 282 days when her record was confirmed in September 2015. She’s gone on to become, among other things, a freelance model and motivational speaker, spreading her message of body positivity and acceptance. As you would expect, Harnaam often gets asked frustrating or insensitive questions about her facial hair. When asked what she’s sick of hearing, Harnaam replied: “It would absolutely have to be ‘why do you have the beard?’ Sometimes I wanna be sarcastic and be like ‘well, why does your dad have a beard?’ “I wish people asked me more questions about personal development, you know, ‘How do I add value? You found your purpose, how can I find my purpose?’” Harnaam often tackles animosity or ignorance head-on in order to educate more people about her condition.

NEWS OPINION AND ANALYSIS by JOHN RYAN

A man’s best friend still missing Dubbo police praised the behaviour of residents and visitors over the long weekend, both on the roads and in pubs and clubs. Inspector Jason Bush (left) briefed media on the traffic operation while senior sergeant Nathaniel Luck gave the stats for Operation Pariac. PHOTO:

GEOFFREY CROSS is missing his best mate Red (above) and he’s hopeful some readers of Dubbo Photo News will be able to help him find his loyal dog. Red went missing from “Newbury Park”, which is about halfway between Dubbo and Narromine, and he’s very concerned for his safety. Red’s wearing a chain collar with his name and Geoffrey’s phone number, 0428 873 120.

Movement at the Dubbo Station DUBBO’S a great proving ground if you want to get ahead in the NSW Police Force and that’s been amply demonstrated once again this past week. Former Dubbo bloke Mick Willing arrived back in his hometown as a senior constable after a varied initial career in Sydney and quickly won a promotion to detective sergeant and then inspector before becoming the state’s youngest-ever superintendent on the South Coast. After a few more challenges he was named boss of the elite Homicide Squad and became its longest-serving boss before becoming an assistant commissioner. This past week, in one of the city’s worst-kept secrets, the NSW Police Force announced he’d been appointed to a deputy commissioner role. Well done, Mick. Three-and-a-half years ago an inspector from Taree, Peter McKenna, was promoted into the Orana superintendent’s job and he set

about his new role with gusto. There were plenty of arrests, the beat cops understood in no time flat that their boss had their backs, and crime in many areas was curbed. Then McKenna’s focus changed and, with the ability to be more proactive thanks to less reactive measures being needed on the frontline, he began building relationships deep into the community, especially with much of the city’s troubled or vulnerable youth. He diverted three full-time police officers to work on Project Walwaay in 2019 and the Aboriginal Youth Team has helped preside over a 60 per cent reduction in the number of charges police have placed on young Aboriginal kids. It’s pretty much putting human faces to both sides of the equation – cops and kids – and understanding that so many of these ‘recidivist offenders’ are really children who’ve never been given the slightest ‘go’ in life. Peter McKenna will be the commander in charge of the state’s Northern Region, and he’ll be greatly missed from the entire Orana Mid-Western district. The popular and long-serving Western Region commander Geoff McKechnie, who last summer spent his holidays driving a header for a mate during the state’s bumper harvest, will be retiring later in the year and is set to be replaced in that role by Superintendent Brett Greentree.

All’s (pretty) quiet on the Western Front DUBBO’S had some eventful long weekends in the past when it comes to crime and law and order issues, but this wasn’t one of them. Senior sergeant Nathaniel Luck briefed the assembled media last Tuesday on how Operation Pariac panned out – general duties officers were assisted by specialist licencing police to target alcohol-related violence and anti-social behaviour both inside and around licensed premises. “Over the two days numerous police, additional police, were deployed within the Orana Mid-Western Police District as the result of which there were four arrests made. There were over 70 licensed premises inspections completed, there were several in-

fringement notices issued and numerous amounts of breath testing done,” Snr Sgt Luck told Dubbo Photo News. “Police were pleased with those results, in general it was quite noticeable that the majority of the licensed premises that were visited were complying with their license requirements and additionally, the crowds that were at the pubs were well behaved. “We only had four arrests thankfully, there was a small matter here in Dubbo where a police officer was assaulted by an adult female who’s refused to leave the premises and who was subsequently charged, there was a highrange and mid-range PCA within Dubbo, and there was also a fail to comply with a move-on direction, so again in general, while they were still taken seriously as alcoMick Willing has been named as a new deputy commissioner in the NSW Police Force. His parents told Dubbo Photo News last week how proud they are of the young bloke who grew up in West Dubbo. He’s pictured (left) at a 2004 press conference, during his days serving in Dubbo.

hol-related crime, they weren’t on the higher scale.” Operation Pariac is conducted throughout regional NSW at various times of the year and regular operations will continue to be rolled out.

Highway patrol stats for the long weekend

NEXT up to brief media was Inspector Jason Bush who ran through the highway patrol stats for the holiday weekend across the vast Western Region. “The long weekend operation concluded at midnight on Monday night, and it was pleasing to see that most drivers that travelled though our region behaved themselves,” he said. Inspector Bush said it was pleasing to report there was a significant reduction in the number of speeding offences detected over the long weekend compared to the same period last year, with 600 speeding infringements issued as opposed to about 900 over the June long weekend last year. “Hopefully our message about speeding is getting through. “There was a significant number of major events that were traffic-generating. It’s good to see that most of those drivers adhered to our operational advice – it was pleasing to see that there were no fatalities or serious injuries recorded in the Western Region again this year.” He said even though this was a pleasing result, we needed to keep that safety momentum going.

Gun stolen at Bourke

BOURKE police are appealing for information after a firearm and power tools were stolen during an aggravated break and enter over the long weekend. About 3am on Sunday, June 13, entry was forced to a home on Anson Street, with the crooks ransacking the house and adjoining business. A firearm, power tools, vehicle keys and phone were among items reported stolen. Officers attended and established a crime scene but as the investigation continues, police urge anyone with information – including CCTV or dashcam footage from the area around the time of the offence – to contact the local cops or Crime Stoppers. z Send your news tips to john.ryan@panscott.com.au or 0429 452 245 txt is best

Emergency Services Levy to be spelled RATEPAYERS will soon notice the Emergency Services Levy imposed by council will appear as a separate line item on their rates notice, thanks to legislation that recently passed through both houses of state parliament. The levy amount will not affect the rate increase allowed for a financial year. The Country Mayors Association (CMA) of NSW has been lobbying for some time for this change, given the levy is a NSW government levy which funds Fire and Rescue, Rural Fire Services and State Emergency Services. Insurance companies also contribute to the levy. The CMA says councils “strongly believe” ratepayers should be aware that the levy is paid to the government for the services it provides and that council’s contribution is payable from the allowable rates increase each year. The new legislation means the levy paid by councils will not have to be paid from the annual rate pegging amount and will be shown on the rate notice separately, the same as insurance companies show the ESL Levy on their renewal notices.

School of Rock: Let’s get the band back together! By JOHN RYAN MANY kids dream of playing in a band and Dubbo’s Macquarie Conservatorium is offering that chance in the upcoming school holidays. On offer is a fun week of afternoon workshops for vocalists and young players of electric lead guitar, bass guitar, drum-kit and keyboard who want to play in rock bands. Macquarie Conservatorium director Vivienne Winther said it’s a must-do for aspiring musicians who’ll get the chance to not only learn new skills, but also collaborate with like-minded youth. “We are thrilled to run this new workshop for local youth these school holidays,” Ms Winther told Dubbo Photo News. Participants will be able to finetune their rock band skills under the expert tutelage of experienced local band musicians and teachers. That mentoring team includes band musician and song-writer Clinton Hoy, guitarist and singer Isaac Scholze, and bass player James Collingridge. “It’s a great opportunity for the many young people out there who are interested in playing together in bands,” Mr Collingridge said. “Kids can come into the workshop as an individual and we will match them into a band, or if they already have their own band organised, they can stay together in that band.” The workshop will be held at

Macquarie Conservatorium – situated on the corner of Darling and Bultje Streets, where there’s plenty of room for bands to rock and roll. Participants need to have some experience playing one of the fol-

lowing rock band instruments: electric lead guitar, electric bass guitar, drum-kit or keyboard. Or they can choose singing as their main focus, and they can be at varying standards from elementary to more advanced on their

chosen instrument but it’s important to note this workshop is not for beginners. Song-writing also makes up a large part of the workshop, with bands encouraged and mentored to write their own songs. Two great additional features of Dubbo’s Rock School will be working with a professional sound system and developing stage performance skills. “We’ll be partnering with SOMAD (Songwriters and Original Musicians Association Dubbo), a peak body for live and original music, to give these young band players hands-on experience with a professional sound system. SOMAD will also provide a Q-and-A session on the music industry – what you need to do to run a band and get gigs,” Ms Winther said. At the end of the workshop the participants will give a showcase performance for family and friends at Macquarie Conservatorium. The conservatorium is also offering some Rock School scholarships for indigenous and female students, so anyone interested in being considered for a scholarship can indicate that on their registration form. “Young musicians should register for Rock School now. Registrations close on Tuesday, June 22 and places are limited, so don’t delay,” she said. For more info and to register online for the workshop you can visit the Conservatorium’s website: www.macqcon.org.au

WELLINGTON NEWS Bell bridge to be finally built By NATALIE LEWIS AFTER many years, the footbridge linking Wellington’s Pioneer and Cameron Parks is finally set to be replaced. Dubbo Regional councillor David Grant has welcomed the news and is looking forward to seeing the pedestrian bridge being used as a thoroughfare for the community. “As a councillor and ever since I’ve been on this council, it’s been something I’ve been passionate about for a long time,” he said. “And (thanks) to our Director Liveability Skye Price who put it as one of her top priorities to get this project up and running.” Council has received $738,000

funding through Phase 2 of the Federal Government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure program for the project, adding to council’s contribution of $100,000. The bridge design was tabled at council’s May ordinary meeting. “It’s been a long time coming and I’m excited to see that it is just about there,” Cr Grant said. He added that a number of local community groups had been working behind the scenes on getting the bridge re-established and he congratulated them for their efforts. “I’m looking forward to actually seeing construction and the finished product,” he said. Council’s Director Liveability

Skye Price said the bridge forms an integral part of the town’s path network. “The original bridge provided a great link between Wellington CBD, the popular Pioneer Park sporting ground as well as the showground

and Mt Arthur,” she said. The new bridge will be accessible for prams, wheelchairs and cyclists along with recreational and mobility scooters. Council is investigating the feasibility of retaining some ma-

jor structural components of the original suspension bridge which spanned the Bell River due to its historical significance and community importance. The project is expected to be completed within seven months.

Lions president Chris Hardy said the club is still accepting donations. “We have hundreds of newly donated books which we are busily putting away in alphabetical order,” she told Dubbo Photo News. “The pre-loved books are still only a gold coin each (to purchase) with a few special books at reduced prices. “All the money received is being donated to Licola Camp, a camp for children, so come and buy a book or two and find out more about this special camp.” The Book Fair will be open on Saturdays from 10am to 2pm at the former Western Store opposite Cameron Park and the club hopes to raise enough money to send up to six disadvantaged local children to the camp this year.

Improving quality of life with cancer

WITH the long-held dream of a new cancer centre for Dubbo now just months from becoming a reality, a group of volunteers from across the region has established the Western Cancer Centre Foundation, a charitable entity that aims to help “smooth the rocky path” and improve the quality of life for cancer patients and survivors through the provision of a range of complementary services. Fellow volunteer board member JEN COWLEY spoke about the WCCF’s aims with chair and renowned Dubbo-based oncologist, Dr Florian Honeyball, who took time out for the interview while seeing patients at one of his regular outreach clinics in Walgett in the region’s far west. Florian, thanks for giving up your lunch break to speak with me from Walgett. You’re the volunteer chairman of the Western Cancer Centre Foundation, but what exactly is your ﬁeld of professional expertise? I’m a medical oncologist at Dubbo Health Services, and chair of the Western NSW Local Health District (LHD) cancer services clinical stream. I also lead the Remote Video Assisted Chemotherapy program increasing access to cancer treatments in remote communities. What is the difference between the Western Cancer Centre Foundation (WCCF) and the centre itself? The Cancer Centre is the facility that provides treatment for cancers across our entire region – it’s run by the local health district (LHD) and it’s designed to provide a world class but basic service to people in our area. What the foundation strives to do is improve on that service and help to increase the quality of life for people with cancer, not just here in Dubbo but across the entire western region, by providing a holistic approach to cancer and its treatment. That will include fitting out the wellness centre within the new cancer centre. Providing complementary services like exercise physiologists, dieticians, occupational therapists – over and above what the health service is obliged to provide – programs that are not part of the standard fare. It’s also about providing services further afield, for instance to help a smaller town get chemotherapy services, or help establish a new outreach service, not just in medicine but in allied health services. Maybe also trying to get clinical trials out of the city and into regional areas like Dubbo. Those are the sorts of things we’ll be looking to provide as an addition to the cancer centre, through the foundation. Is there an advocacy role for the foundation to play? While it’s not part of the terms of the foundation as such, it’s a side-effect. The foundation will definitely advocate for the improvement of services. It will help improve the knowledge about cancer in our community, but it’s about providing extra services and things to help people to get through their cancer diagnosis and treatment, not just in the acute phase but for many years after, which is when people start falling off the bandwagon a little

bit and may need more help than is currently available to them. Can you explain the role of the volunteer WCCF board? The board helps in shaping the way in which the foundation will move forward. It’s about getting people from a diverse range of backgrounds and areas to ensure there are enough voices being heard to reflect the communities of the region. It’s also the role of the board to make sure the governance of the foundation is working properly and that what we’re doing is appropriate not only in medical terms, but also in terms of what the community expects.

 The foundation will add to the treatment services of the cancer centre...we will do everything in our power to smooth that rocky path for people diagnosed with, treated for and being a survivor of cancer...  The board will also get the message out there that cancer is something that hits one in two of us, and it’s something we can actively do something about in making sure people’s access to care and quality of treatment is as good as it can be. We are all volunteers on the board – all ten are from a diverse range of experiences and backgrounds – from medical people to cancer survivors, to awareness ambassadors, to those in professional, civic and business fields. We aren’t just from Dubbo, we have board members from surrounding communities as well. What is the governance structure of the foundation? The foundation is registered with the Australian Charities and Notfor-Profits Commission, and has (Deductible Gift Recipient) DGR status, which means that for taxation purposes, it’s recognised by the Australian government as a charity, so all donations over $2 are tax deductible. The foundation isn’t part of the health service, it’s important to make that distinction. It hasn’t been created to fund the services the health service should provide – the cancer centre itself will be entirely funded by the LHD, through the NSW and Australian

Dubbo-based medical oncologist and chairman of charitable entity, the Western Cancer Centre Foundation, Florian Honeyball

governments, as will all the provision of services for the PET scanner, the chemotherapy suite, the linear accelerator (the radiation machine). What the foundation is trying to do is to add to the services you’d get through any cancer centre across Australia and turn the experience of being diagnosed with, treated for and being a survivor of cancer into as smooth a path as it can be by providing as many complementary things as we can. As a foundation, we will do everything in our power to smooth that rocky path. You’re an oncologist, so you have “skin in the game” so to speak. Can you tell us how important the cancer centre and the foundation are and what sort of gaps will be ﬁlled in service provision? The cancer centre itself is an incredibly important part of the Dubbo Hospital redevelopment in that it provides tertiary level care at a regional location. It means

people will actually receive the care they should have, because at the moment a lot of people elect to have only the treatment they can have in Dubbo because it’s too hard to get to Sydney. For instance, having the PET scanner available means people won’t have to travel to Sydney for an important part of their diagnosis and monitoring of their cancer. Additionally, the radiation machine – the linear accelerator – being here in Dubbo means everyone in Dubbo can stay here for their radiation treatment rather than have to travel. That travel often comes at a time that is innately stressful in itself. Exactly. Having to travel often means having to stay away from families and family support – it’s already a very vulnerable time for people when they’re diagnosed and having treatment. For people within a 100-kilometre radius of Dubbo it really means not having to stay away at all, and even for those who are outside that radius, it will still mean they can stay within their own region and medical catchment, and they’ll often have a network of family and friends here, so it’s not quite as alienating as having to travel to Sydney or Orange. So there are both ﬁnancial and emotional beneﬁts? Very much so, and the emotional and financial benefits aren’t just for the individuals with cancer, but also for the wider community because the fact that we can provide these services in Dubbo increases the number of professionals who will stay here to further their careers. It attracts people in the medical field to move to Dub-

bo, which has flow-on effects for everyone. It also makes retiring in Dubbo and the west of NSW a much more viable option if you know that you have access to comprehensive cancer services within your own community and catchment. On a personal note for you, it must be enormously gratifying after so long to see this kind of dream become a reality. Beyond words. There have been so many people on this path with me and it’s the culmination of 46,000 people coming together to fight for a cancer centre for Dubbo and western NSW. It’s incredibly gratifying to be part of a community which is so passionate about furthering its own health care needs. If people would like to help support the Western Cancer Centre Foundation, what’s the best way to do that? Feel free to go to the website, which will be launched soon, and that will show you how you can contribute financially. We are also launching a Facebook page which will keep the community updated on what’s happening. We’d also encourage people to consider becoming ambassadors for the WCCF – next year, we’ll be looking for “champions” in places around the region outside Dubbo to help us promote the services we’ll be offering. We’d love for people to familiarise themselves with what the foundation does and to be our advocates in their own communities. *Jen Cowley sits as a volunteer director on the board of the Western Cancer Centre Foundation. 

Gentle on her mind: Songstress’ mental health message

MELINDA Schneider is a legend of Australian country music – a singer songwriter with a big voice who is now using that voice to tell a story as moving as her anthemic songs in a bid to help others navigate the murky waters of mental ill-health.

` I think country women in particular are incredibly stoic and I am too, but I think you can be too strong for too long... a

Melinda spoke with JEN COWLEY ahead of a visit to Dubbo this weekend for a women’s wellness workshop called Be Gentle on Yourself, for which she’s partnered with the Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP).

TRYING to interview a well-known personality in a public place usually makes for a protracted process, peppered as it often is with interruptions from well-meaning fans and well-wishers. With this in mind, I approach my interview with country music star Melinda Schneider with some trepidation, given we’ve arranged to meet for brunch at a popular bay-side café on a sunshiney Central Coast Friday morning. I needn’t have worried. Not that the inimitable Ms Schneider isn’t well recognised – it’s just that she’s so much a part of this pretty coastal community that she’s just simply “Melinda”, a regular local, a normal working mum. One who just happens to have an almighty voice and a place in the annals of Australian musical history. She also has a story to tell, and more importantly these days, she’s willing and able to tell it. ••• Clad in flannelette shirt and jeans, the woman who for the past few years has regularly donned a glamourous golden gown to channel the great Doris Day in her well-received tribute show, is sharing a table with some other locals when I arrive. She excuses herself from the group, thrusts out the free hand that isn’t holding her breakfast plate, flashes me a smile pop culture would describe as a “megawatt” and says, “I’m Melinda.” Her eyes are strikingly pretty but, belonging as they do to a seasoned professional, they size me up with a wariness borne of years of being on guard. We settle in with some pleasantries and while she’s nothing but friendly, I sense that each word is measured and practiced as she begins to answer my questions about her partnership with the Rural Adversity Mental Health Program (RAMHP) and her upcoming visit to Dubbo for a women’s wellness day titled Be Gentle on Yourself, which is also the name of her newly released song. Soon though, as our conversation progresses, it’s as if some little inner voice quietly whispers that it’s okay to let down her guard and tell her story, that she has her own permission to speak openly, despite years of programming to the contrary. The result is a perceptible glow of warmth and authenticity, and suddenly it makes perfect sense that this nearly 50-year-old icon of the Australian music industry

makes such a perfect advocate for rural women’s wellbeing. Melinda’s own experience of struggling to maintain good mental health had its genesis in a childhood spent in the public eye, but the diagnosis of depression wouldn’t come until 2018, when it confined the mum of one to bed for six weeks, and forced her to confront the reality of her own fallibility. “I couldn’t come to terms with the fact that I had depression – I refused to go on medication. Then my doctor said to me, “Be strong, but not TOO strong”. “That really struck a chord and I began thinking about how stoic I always am and how I just keep soldiering on and not allowing myself to fall down.” For the first time, Melinda allowed herself to rest – really rest – and time to recover. Soon though, the depression returned and was compounded a month later with the death of a friend through suicide. “That really took me down so low,” she recalls. “Understanding he’d made that choice because he wasn’t able to admit he had depression because of the shame he felt, made me realise I was doing the same thing, and that I needed help.” Melinda consulted a psychiatrist, confiding about her perfectionism and the unrealistically high standards she sets herself and was finally convinced she needn’t struggle alone or without help. “So I surrendered to it,” she says of finally agreeing to try medication. “I began almost immediately to

feel better. Part of that was coming to terms with the fact that I wasn’t perfect. Self-judgement is so destructive.” ••• THE program of wellness talks she’s now helping to present takes its name from her 2020 single, Be Gentle on Yourself. Tellingly, it’s a song written 20 years ago. The paradox of taking two decades to heed her own advice isn’t lost on Melinda. Neither is the notion that the inability to take her own words to heart is symptomatic of women’s tendency to be able to tell other women to give themselves a break while denying ourselves the same latitude. “Totally!” she agrees. “And it happens a lot with my songs. I write from a place of my own truth, but walking the talk is important too.” The power of Melinda’s lived experience is part of the success of the wellness workshops. “(Someone from) RAMHP saw me give a keynote address in 2019 and without even knowing my story, asked if I would come on board as an ambassador. “I told them I’d love to, and then told them of my depression,” she says, adding that the organisation allowed her the time she needed to muster the courage to “go public” with her story. That Melinda is a leading light in the country music scene means she’s familiar with regional Australia and its people, so partnering with RAMHP has a certain synergy. “I think country women in particular are incredibly stoic and I am too, but I think you can be too strong for too long.

“You need to be stoic to a point but not to excess.” On the question of what she considers to be the essence of resilience, Melinda takes time to muster her thoughts. “It’s an interesting question,” she muses. “When you’re depressed, there’s no hope and without hope there can’t be resilience. “The only way you can bounce back is to let yourself fall down, surrender to what you’re going through without judging yourself – give yourself all the unconditional love you give to others. “It’s different for everyone – but if you give yourself time to “sit in the shit” of depression, after time you can recover. “That’s resilience.” ••• HAVING been in the public eye from the tender age of eight – she shared her famous yodelling mum’s stage as a child – Melinda says the glare of the spotlight is challenging, but not for the obvious reasons. “I’ve never known my life to be private and I’m quite comfortable with that. What I’ve struggled with and am having to learn is to be imperfect in the public eye.” Authenticity is important to Melinda, but lifelong programming by perfectionist parents meant her own expectations of flawlessness have been nigh on impossible to overcome. “For so many years I was holding something of myself back so that I could appear perfect. “Privately, I’m authentic, but I’ve been very careful about managing my public image – as a lot of performers are. Now that I’ve gone

public with my story, and I’ve felt the love and support and appreciation from people, something has shifted. I now know it’s okay to be perfectly imperfect.” People have come forward to offer Melinda their thanks for making them feel “normal” or to say it’s her honesty that’s prompted them to seek help – something she finds deeply validating. “Being able to help positively change someone’s life just by being authentic and sharing, that’s amazing,” she says, but goes on to ponder the guilt that goes with admitting to suffering depression when, to all intents and purposes, your life is seemingly “perfect”. “I kept thinking, what do I have to be depressed about? I have a beautiful home, a beautiful man and a beautiful son, a successful career doing what I love – life is great, compared with other people. And again, it’s about that self-judgement – I’d say to myself, “How dare you have depression! “That voice has been very loud at times.” Now that she’s given herself permission to be imperfect, what she does she do differently to “be gentle on yourself”? “I just try to tune in to my body more. I try to be more aware of my feelings and what I’m holding on to, and I try to get them out and not bottle them up. I have a lot more awareness now than when I was in my early 40s about what I was avoiding. In our society we’re not encouraged to let things out.” Melinda is no stranger to Dubbo, but during this visit, she’s hoping to impact people’s lives in a positive way through both her Farewell to Doris shows and the Be Gentle on Yourself wellness talks. “I hope people walk out with permission to feel exactly how they feel without judgement, and to be a bit more understanding with others who are having a hard time. “I want them to give themselves and others permission to be exactly where and what they are with no pressure to be or perform a certain way.” z Help is available 24/7.

OPINION & ANALYSIS

LETTERS & FEEDBACK

Click bait: Mice make their way to London WHILE we’re all busy baiting them, some tabloid media outlets around the world are instead using our rampant rodents themselves for bait... click-bait that is. One headline in London’s tabloid newspaper The Sun last weekend screamed “Farmer’s wife wakes to mouse chewing eyeball...” and went on to detail how the “Aussie rodent plague is destroying everything in its wake”. The article goes on to detail tales of the horror unfolding Down Under, and quite rightly points to the devastation being wrought on regional NSW by the mice plague, quoting residents from across our region. Farmers, business people and householders from Narromine, Parkes, Orange, Coonamble and others are mentioned in the story, which draws from some of our own Aussie tabloid media. The article draws a comparison between what it calls the “Apocalypse mouse” and the Coronavirus pandemic, quoting NSW Farmers’ president Xavier Martin who likened the plague to “trying to control Covid on a cruise ship”. Despite the click-bait headlines, the article does shed light on the breadth and depth of the disaster wrought by what some experts have deemed the worst mouse plague in decades. Graphic stories and equally graphic photos showing hordes of mice have been published in some of the world’s best known newspapers, including The Times in London, the Washington Post and the New York Times. It’s great that the world is paying attention to the plight of regional Australia which has already suffered so much, but it’s a shame our region is getting such widespread attention for such an awful problem. (We should be grateful that the positivity created by Prince Harry and Meghan’s visit here in 2018 still resonates around the world’s media outlets.) As for The Sun, that tabloid newspaper couldn’t resist a dig at we colonials. “The mice are almost certainly descended from rodent stowaways on British convict ships nearly 250 years ago,” it sniffed. If London’s The Sun is so keen to claim the mice, they’re welcome to repatriate them. We’ll chip in – the equivalent of ten pounds ought to do it.

Protect all creatures great and small

Historical mice, hysterical communities

The Editor, There has been a lot of comment of late about animal welfare. The RSPCA speaks of ‘all creatures great and small’ and the respect they deserve. This is vital to all animals – a feral rabbit, pig, donkey, cat or mouse, etc do not ask to be born feral, and unwanted. With little effort, the killing of these animals can be done in a more humane and effective manner. And every effort must be made to avoid our unique native animals and birds being killed by mouse baits that are in use. As human beings we are supposed to be at the top of the food chain – as a result, we should lead by example. Don Graham, Dubbo

(This letter is part of a collection and was written describing the mouse plague of 1914 and again in 1917. It was sent to Dubbo Photo News to illustrate the cyclic nature of plagues such as the one the region is currently experiencing). The Editor, The mouse plagues were terrible. Dad had haystacks fenced in with iron dug into the ground. At night we used to go and chase the mice along the iron. They would fall into kerosine tins half full of water, which we had sunk into the ground. They would soon be full of mice. The men pushed with a flat stick to stop the mice getting out until they drowned. They got very diseased with

bumpy legs. It nearly makes me sick to think of it all. We had to keep the table and cupboard legs in tins of water to keep the mice out of our food. It was a real battle. They even ate the curls of little girls’ heads at night (this is the truth!). I have seen the curls lying on the pillows. Any wonder I can’t stand a mouse near me. I loathe them. Mrs M.P.

‘Outrageous’ claims about Gin Gin project The Editor, Fanciful claims were made in Dubbo Photo News, Letters to the Editor, May 27, [“Questions about Gin Gin Weir project”, Michael McKay] about the cost and purpose of environmental water. These types of outrageous

statements will seem silly to most reasonable people, but there is a risk that some might actually believe this stuff. A line-up of river experts will be presenting at a public meeting in Dubbo next week to discuss the implications of the proposed Gin Gin dam. This an excellent opportunity for the public to find out what the impacts of the Gin Gin plan would be on the valley from people who have decades of knowledge and experience.

The hidden scourge of police PTSD Warning: The following comment refers to suicide and may cause distress to some readers. Peter Gillett (pictured right) is a retired NSW Police Officer now living on King Island and during his policing career he worked with Brad Edwards. He was moved to write a poem in response to Brad’s death two weeks ago after a long battle with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome (PTSD). “I am sickened by the continuing plight of (the) suicide of former and serving police,” Mr Gillett wrote to Dubbo Photo News “In response, I have written a poem on the subject. “I too retired from NSW Police as a result of PTSD injury and now live the life of a homesteader on King Island,” said Mr Gillett, who has written a book about his career, titled “A Step Too Far”.

Tickets Please – In memory of our fallen mate Brad Edwards Sometimes we see him at carnivals, gaudy, dressed by chocolate wheel. We cast suspicious eyes and know it’s not quite real. We hear the spinning flutter and dare not see where numbers land. Everyone’s a winner, he oils in language few say they understand. Been known to do private gigs – bedroom, flat or crowded bar A voice that could be near or from afar. Soothing hiss falls easy, like hand inside a glove Come, come insistent whisper all is ready, delay no longer, my love. Impromptu appearance, a specialty, no booking fee required. In moments he can screw your brain, in seconds all cross-wired.

In fits of rage materialise with answers clear as mud Seductively he calls, tells of stories writ in blood. Silent friend of many years, plan B if things go awry, Whispers lies into our ears, promises the sky. We gaze into his mirror-cracked, disjointed all we see. Confidently he grasps at our hands – “All be better soon,” he utters, emptily Not afraid of party, cheerful music and play, Come and dance with me alone to see another day. As long you hear my discord, playing underneath, I’m in no hurry, but tells of glory in the wreath. Old age, young age, bothered

by neither one. If seeds of doubt be sown, he knows his job is done. He knows his weathered dreams of nothing or eternity have currency either way, A quick snatching commando style, a house favourite, free

of pay. At times we catch fleeting scenes of him, fox-like among the chickens, A slowly moving searchlight finds him quivering in the bracken. None can really know the face always on the turn and run. If perchance, you encounter him, come back, tell the rest of us and end his time of fun. z If this article has caused concern about your own or someone else’s mental health, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14 or call the NSW Mental Health Line 1800 011 511 for advice.

At the Olympic Games, sport beats rationality Greg Smart ❚ OPINION CAST your mind back to the Rio de Janeiro Olympics in 2016. International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach declared Brazilians united behind the games, despite the need to forcibly evict the impoverished residents of the favelas to make way for sporting facilities and accommodation. Venues which were nowhere near capacity. Rio de Janeiro was the centre of the mosquito borne Zika virus, but the financial imperative to hold the Olympics overrode public safety, and the Olympics went ahead anyway – without improving the lives of ordinary Brazilians as was promised in the hosting bid. The hosting baton was then handed to Tokyo for 2020. A government debt of over 200 per cent to GDP was no disincentive for the Japanese government to budget over US$12Billion to host the games – the rationale being hosting the Olympics puts a city “on the

map.’’ Despite Tokyo already being a major capital city and renowned tourist destination. Of course, Covid-19 threw the world into disarray last year. The Tokyo 2020 Olympics were postponed for twelve months while the world came to grips with a global pandemic and a halt to international travel. Still called Tokyo 2020, the Games are now less than a month away from beginning. But should they be held at all? After an initial swift response to the pandemic – mask wearing, social distancing – Japan has one of the lowest vaccination rates in the OECD, with less than 3 per cent of their population fully vaccinated. Current polling shows nearly 70 per cent of the population opposes the Games going ahead. International spectators have been barred from entering the country. A decision by Japanese Olympic officials to bar local spectators from attending is expected soon. Medical facilities under pressure from local virus outbreaks have prompted towns and cities set to host athletes, training events and

entertainment events to express concern to organizers of the spread of the virus by visitors. Vaccinating of hotel staff to athletes has been given preference over vaccinating ordinary citizens, which has led to local governments being inundated with complaints. In a major blow to organisers, over 10,000 volunteers have declined to participate in the Games due to concerns about contact with athletes and their entourages. The one-year postponement is estimated to have added US$2. 8Billion to the cost of hosting the Games. In light of the obvious health threat in staging the Games, the IOC and the Japanese government are remaining steadfast that the Games will go ahead on July 23. The IOC continues to issue statements stating they are doing their utmost to ensure a safe and secure Games will be “a light of hope for people all over the world” (whatever that means). In the background are the financial and political pressures for the Games to go ahead. Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga was expected to call an

election after the Games, hoping the goodwill from hosting this international event will translate to an election victory. It has taken mounting public pressure for Suga to now state his government would “not put the Olympics first” – but the decision for the Games to go ahead or not rested with the IOC. Under the host-city-contract the Olympics are the exclusive property of the IOC, so only the IOC has the right to cancel the Games, not the host city. If the IOC was to cancel, insurance policies would indemnify it and the Japanese organising committee – in what would likely the largest claim of this type in history. If Japan cancelled the Games, the costs would fall on the Tokyo organising committee, and ultimately the Japanese government. The billions of dollars in media rights, sponsorship and advertising go to the IOC, and are of course a huge incentive for the push for the Games to go ahead. The power balance between the host city and the IOC is always skewed in favour of the IOC, which contributes nothing to the cost of running the Games.

Given the financial, contractual and political burdens placed on the host city, it seems inevitable the Tokyo Games will go ahead in one form or another. I think the form will be events held in empty venues, devoid of atmosphere and any Japanese uniqueness that justifies the cost and threat to public health. Given these burdens of hosting the Olympics, is it little wonder the host city selection process has in recent years been marked by cities withdrawing their bids, leaving Los Angeles and Paris to run unopposed for 2024 and 2028. This brings us to Brisbane hosting the Olympics in 2032, which given there are no rival bidders, will be announced in the next few weeks. The Brisbane bid was based on Queensland government revenue and attendance projections formulated in 2019. We all know the world has radically changed since then. Why buy into a prize no one else is fighting for? z Greg Smart lives and works in Dubbo, and is a keen observer of current affairs.

Photos supplied by DUBBO ENVIRONMENT GROUP DUBBO Environment Group’s recent inaugural photographic competition drew an enthusiastic cohort of local snappers whose images reflected the topics of humanity and the natural world and certainly meant the judges had their work cut out for them. The 58 entries were submitted from budding photographers both young and not-so-young from across the Orana Region, and the quality of the entries was “excellent” according to the judges.

Vice president of DEG, Di Clifford, said the enthusiastic response for the competition has prompted the group to begin planning for the staging of another such event. “Stay tuned,” she said.. “Watch for details in the coming months.” An exhibition of the entries was held with the support of generous sponsor Ramien’s Timber, which lent its showroom for the monthlong display. According to Max Ramien, the exhibition was well received by members of the public. A well-attended launch evening was also held at the showroom to announce the winners.

Thumbs Up – Who says customer service doesn’t exist in Dubbo? Not with two fabulous ladies, Lorraine at Specsavers and Janet at Millers. Both of you have gone above and beyond and my mum and I sincerely Thank You for your kindness, patience and exemplary customer service. See you again on another Sunday.

Thumbs Up to the Dubbo Regional Council staff who set up roadside message boards, traffic management inside the show ground and supplied showground workers for the Covid testing at short notice last Thursday in pouring rain, no whingeing from these guys.

Thumbs Up also to the Covid-testing crews, a job well done.

in Victoria and travelled through inland NSW and into Queensland and put the health of so many people at risk. And that’s without mentioning the livelihoods of so many people in business who had to close up for an anxious period, get staff to isolate and spend extra money deep-cleaning their premises. The mental and financial stress must have been immense, and all because two selfish people were too ignorant to care about anyone other than themselves. That couple should face a large fine.

Right: Lilly Rayman won first place in the Natural World Open category for her stunning image of a dust storm, and told the story of not thinking her photo of her “messy house yard” was good enough to enter, but her partner convinced her to submit the shot.

Thumbs Up to everyone involved in the statewide U13 rugby union carnival held at Apex Oval over the June long weekend. Thousands of people made the trip to Dubbo from all across NSW and stayed at local motels, ate out at local restaurants, pubs and clubs and the visitors I spoke to were full of praise for the way the event was run, and also for our fantastic facilities at Apex Oval.

Second place in the Open Natural World cat- Marlene Cutler’s image of a knitted poppy brooch egory went to Sandra Gaffney’s image of one captured the judges’ attention for second place in of our feathered friends. the Open Humanity category.

Briette Smith’s black and white image secured second place in the Junior Humanity category.

Thumbs Up to the good ‘ol 3801 locomotive and the organisers and volunteers who keep this legendary steam train running on the winding tracks, how many people were left with giant smiles on their faces after seeing the legendary monster and having a ride out to various outlying centres. It’s just so good to see the old skills that are needed to preserve the 3801 being safeguarded and passed on to new generations of rail enthusiasts.

Red sunset: You could be forgiven for thinking this photo from Peter Woodward was taken during a Martian sunset, such are the hues and shades of red that dominate the shot, and the absence of any hint of blue. At the moment, a Dubbo sunset could be confused as having the same early evening temperature as those on Mars. “Moo Moo” says the Friesian cow mailbox spotted by our ace photographer Emy-Lou. But while there may be mail inside, it’s unlikely any dairy lovers will find creamy milk.

Ten years of family care at Buninyong Pre-School Contributed by BUNNINYONG PRE-SCHOOL

THE “family” of Buninyong Pre-School – including current and past children, families, staff and community members – gathered on May 10 to celebrate a decade since first opening its doors at the Myall Street premises. Organisers of the day sent out a special thanks to Bert McLellan and the team from Dubbo West Rotary for providing “carefree catering” and to BJ Ramien for the installation of a commemorative plaque

and flagpoles. The office of Member for Parkes Mark Coulton donated flags, and Uncle Frank “Riverbank” Doolan opened the celebrations with a Welcome to Country. Thanks were extended also to the school’s management committee members past and present who helped throughout the event. All who attended had a fun time reminiscing, as well as enjoying face painting, coloured hair-spraying, a concert from the children and plenty of cake.

SUDOKU EXTRA

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.

Carmen lives and breathes AFL By GEOFF MANN

 I think it depends on where you grew up. Women have been involved in the sport for a long time but the passion around Women and Girls AFL is increasing all the time. The AFLW has been a huge platform and a huge drawcard for some of our kids to see they have a future in a sport they love... 

CARMEN Armour has had a love affair Australian Rules Football all her life. Now she is expressing that passion by coaching Central West girls in the Country Championships. She has been involved with the Dubbo Junior AFL Club since its inception in 2012 and it is not hard to see why. “I grew up in Broken Hill so AFL is in my blood!” She says when the club started nearly 10 years ago there were only a few players. “We bounced off with just four little teams to play against each other because we didn’t have enough numbers but we have grown the player base and I’ve just stepped up from being an assistant to coaching the Under 14s this year.” Carmen’s skills have been rewarded and recently she was appointed coach of the Girls representative team. “I am really delighted to be working with these talented kids. We’ve had rep sides that we’ve taken away before with great managers and great kids. It hasn’t always been a great arena for us so we’re spending more time together in the build-up this year and we’re aiming to improve our performances.” Trials were held in Molong to cater for teams from Dubbo, Orange and the two Bathurst clubs

and squads for Under 13s, 15s, 17s, Youth Girls League and Women’s were announced during the week. Girls have traditionally played netball, hockey, soccer and basketball but in recent years Touch, league tag, rugby union and league have become increasingly popular. Carmen sees each of these as having transferable skills so AFL is offering a fairly easy transition for those wanting to try something different. “We’ve got a lot of young girls coming through that have been allowed to play mixed gender sports up until about 13 and then they go to single gender sports. There’s

Zoe McAneney Youth Girls

a lot that go to League Tag and soccer but then we tend to lose them but we’re finding that AFL is a great bridge for some of those who are still really physical, want to play a great game and this is providing that platform for them to stay in sport. “There are so many skills that come from netball, basketball, league tag, soccer and the rugby codes and there are a lot of girls who have come over to try AFL. Dale and Rachel Bates who coach the Youth Girls in Dubbo have just had their first win ever and the enthusiasm is high. “All our teams are gaining in confidence and to see their skills

developing is just marvellous,” Carmen gushed. Pathways? “We’re really lucky in the Central West that we have access to some fantastic coaches and we have players in the junior and Youth Girls who have the potential and the pathway to elite footy if they take it.” Carmen says AFL NSW Development Officer Casey White has been a real driver in recent years. “Casey has been a tremendous asset for the development of our game in the Central West. He’s always out promoting our game, teaching skills and for anyone who wants to get involved he is always on the end of the line. He’s supported by a mammoth amount of volunteers across the four teams in our competition. “Some have been involved for the past ten years and more and

more are coming through. We could not have community sports without the self-giving of those parents, grandparents and interested volunteers who get us up every weekend to play a game we love.” What about for those mums who have not grown up with AFL? “There’s an awful lot of us who have grown up with the sport in Victoria, South Australia, Tassie, Western Australia and even Sydney and Brisbane. We’ve lived and breathed AFL. It’s our number one sport and what really excites me is we run a program for parents with this experience to partner up with newcomers so they know how to have a conversation with their kids about how well they did and encourage them to work on whatever it is they feel they need.” Carmen believes this expanding knowledge base is creating many previously unknown opportunities for young athletes in the central west of the state. Let’s give a shout out to Carmen and her training colleagues at Dubbo Juniors – Ben Fairman (12s), Carmen Armour, Dale Bates (Youth Girls) and Michael Armstrong (18s). Dubbo and the Central West AFL are celebrating their 40th anniversary this year so what an opportune time to get involved as the journey continues.

Ducks host Queens Legacy Carnival By GEOFF MANN OTTERS, Frogs, Sharks, Marlins, Ducks, Mermaids, Splashers and Diggers transformed into judges, ladies, coppers, soldiers and leg-roped convicts for a fabulous finale to the annual Queen’s Legacy Veterans Swimming Carnival on Sunday. After an exciting morning in the pool, friends from all over the state gathered to raise funds and celebrate ‘life after Covid’ in the RSL Club auditorium. Val Reid from Gladesville Diggers took the 25m Freestyle just.02 ahead of a Frog (Hornsby) and two Sharks (Cronulla RSL). Cronulla claimed the Crocodile Cup, touching out the Ducks and Gladesville Diggers. One of the Ducks newest members, Rob Dickerson (pictured) became a local hero after touching out Anne Wood (Cronulla) and Chris Reid (Gladesville) to have his name etched on the prestigious 50m Freestyle Handicap. Young Jack Allen made it a weekend to remember, backing up his try for CYMS on Saturday with an impressive win in the 25m Sprint while Nicole Johnstone finished third behind Lisa Hedge and Stacey Thomas in the Ladies event. The local boys team claimed the 4x25m medley relay and Austinmer took out the Legacy Relay.

Tribute for local rugby legends By GEOFF MANN A MEMORIAL day planned for former Dubbo Kangaroos Ollie Hall (Wallabies) and Mick Frew became a tribute to three when former president Charlie Holland passed away recently. In what “Dan Frogan” described as the greatest day in his long rugby career, over 80 former players gathered in the club house to reflect on the contributions each had made. Retired ABC Sports commentator Gerry

Collins returned to his rugby roots to charm supporters with his reflections. Greg Lesberg, Rawson Leach, and Peter Frew paid emotional tributes to Ollie and Mick and there were plenty of kind words for the administrative genius of Charlie. The battle against old rivals Orange Emus resulted in a narrow loss 12-7. “Character building” was the consensus of the gathered who spent many hours rebuilding friendship forged in “battle”.

Astley Cup launch By GEOFF MANN THE old war cry from Dubbo High School sent a chill down my spine when the 2021 cohort of Dubbo College students bellowed the famous chant. The College competed against Bathurst High and Orange High for an iconic trophy that was introduced in 1923. The Astley Cup is the longest running inter-schools sporting and debating event in Australia. While Dubbo won three of the first eight Cups in '23, '25 and 28, it has been a long drought since the school last grasped the trophy in 2011. "This year is ours" was the common theme running through the Hall as Year 10 students joined their Senior College fellows for the presentation of playing gear for tennis, soccer, netball, hockey, athletics, rugby league and Mulvey Cup debating.

multi-shot ends for a comfortable 26 shots to 13 win over 10 ends. Gaye Cottee, Peter Bennison and Peter Sinclair dented the hopes of Mike Twohill and his partners Helen Emblem and Bryan O’Sullivan. Gaye’s team kept with Team Twohill but put together a couple of productive ends to take a 17-10 victory in a match played in great spirit. “Skip Rick See linked up with Steve Kelly and Lionel Ayoub against Ron McAuley, Gordon Lummis and Kevin Scott. Rick’s boys were leading after 11 ends, however, as everyone knows, sport is a game of two halves! Kevin got his team going after the break and soon caught, then overtook Rick’s team and clinched a win 16 shots to 8. It was a great comeback with a ‘never say die’ attitude,” Pistol added. Overall winners – Cheryl Storch, Ruby Stockings and skip Roy Frost (27 points); Johnny Fardell, Gary Huggins and Matt Quill (26). Lucky bowlers – Doc Livingston, Lionel Ayoub and Gordon Scott. Resters – Alan Stratford, Kevin Scott and Helen Emblem. Pistol Pete pointed out the new phone number to book for Combo Bowls is 5820 0380.

IN a night full of frivolity with lots of “friendly fire” the Dubbo Ducks wrapped up another challenging year. “We lost three of our long-serving members in 20/21 – Ross Tomlins, Don Attenborough and, more recently, Tony Wall, so our hearts went out to them and their families when we gathered to celebrate our 60th year,” Tom Gray shared. “This club is built on mateship and when we say farewell, it is not just the persons we are grieving for, it is their families who are in our hearts. Ross, Donny and Tony all made contributions and Trish, Betty and Merle and their families are forever linked to the Duck Pond.” The Ducks is one of Dubbo’s longest serving sporting and community groups. “Come down to the RSL pool any Sunday morning around 8.30 to meet and join in the fun,” was the smiling invitation from Judy Walsh! “Never too old, not too young to be a Dubbo Duck”. ••• Special Awards 2020/21  Open Championship (Kevin Williams Trophy) – Brett Schloeffel  Championship Bridesmaid (Peter Davis Trophy) – Mark Prentice  Open 100mtrs (D & A Glendale Trophy) – Mark Scullard  RSL Championship Over 60 (Allen Griffin Trophy) – Tom Gray  45-49 Years (Jack Adams Memorial Trophy) – Craig Ross  Champion of Champions ((Daily Liberal Trophy) – Brian Schloeffel  Most Breaker (Kevin Hopkins Trophy) – Lucas Salmon and Greg Jankowski  Most Improved (Mike Twohill Trophy) – Josh Bird  Ken McMullen Award for community service (Dubbo Rotary Plate) – John Wherritt  Stirrer’s Spoon – Dave Sparkes  Spit the Dummy (Brent Ryan Trophy) – Norm Bahr, “not for the ﬁrst time”!  Vern Traeger Dubbo RSL Trophy – Peter Hargreaves  Tom Flynn Iron Man Memeorial 9Jean Flynn Trophy) – Judy Walsh  Col Eastburn ”Boom Boom” Brace Relay – Judy Walsh and Lucy Taylor  Emergency Services Trophy – Peter Hargreaves, Jack Allen and Tom Gray  Clive Rootes Relay – “Unknowns”: Robert Rich, Roger Mackay, Ron Everett, Garry Giddings  Club Person of the Year (Meadows, Slapp & Traeger Trophy) – Roger McKay

By GEOFF MANN THE RSL Combo bowlers have enjoyed their first few roll ups on the revamped greens at RSL North Dubbo Sporties. “It is good to be able to continue our Sunday morning ritual, although a couple of bowlers had their locators on speed dial and turned up at Wingewarra St,” Pete Ruzans laughed. “42 of our members gathered. There was a real buzz of excitement as bowlers laid down their first bowls. It took just a few ends for most to adjust to the way the green played. It was true and fast but most were impressed with the green by the end of play and happy to have what is now a very good facility to play bowls.” Col Dover, Frank Vaughan and Shirley Marchant lined up against Paul Martin, Ross Pharo and Phil Knight but despite chalking up the first points, never scored after the second end. This resulted in Phil’s team winning nine ends in a row to amass a 16-11 lead but once drinks were taken, Col’s team rebounded to score on the final for ends and grab an unexpected tie – eight ends each; 16 shots all.

team believed to be John Cole, Chris Cristante and Greg Brown (no names on scorecard). Thet game proved to be another thriller that ended in a 7-all draw. “John Fardell teamed with Gary Huggins and Matt Quill to take on Beryl Hobson (Skip), Fred O’Sullivan and G. Strawhan on Rink 5. Beryl led her side to a good start but Matt and his charges kept chasing and by end 7 took a one shot lead. They continued to chalk up points with some great team bowling, accumulating 24 shots

while Team Beryl languished, notching up just eight shots from the last six ends. On Rink 7, Roy Frost led Cheryl Storch and Ruby Stockings against Graham Ross, Mel Giddings and Marion Carolan. Roy and his girls powered their way to a 19-4, 12 ends to four win. “Or was it a flogging”, Pistol Pete queried??

The United Services Memorial Club (USMC) was beautifully decorated for the gala night with the ever-popular Eric Grothe and the Gurus setting the tone. “Whilst the event was a club fundraiser our intent this year was to provide something for the whole community. Everyone in Narromine deserves to get out and have fun and this also gives an economic stimulus for local people,” Sally said. “The Ball provided an opportunity for people to be social and have a laugh after the difficult times of drought, Covid and then the mice plague!” Special guests included Parramatta legend Brett Ken-

Sally was excited at the recognition of local businesses. “The canapes and meals were catered and served by the incredible team at The Grazier’s Table. The food was delicious thanks to our very talented Narromine based caterers. “Jacques Barrett & Daniel Townes entertained us with their comedy shows and were a hit with the crowd,” she smiled. “League legend Brett Kenny provided some interesting insights into his playing career prior to Steve Hart and the Gurus getting everyone fired up on the dance floor for the remainder of the night.” Sally, Jets president and Mick Burns and the Ball committee were ecstatic about the community inputs. “Being a club that values

SPORT Junior Rugby heavyweights converge on Apex oval By YVETTE AUBUSSON-FOLEY THE weigh-ins were done, with one U13 rugby competitor scraping in at 102 kilograms, just one shy of the 103 kilo limit for that age group in the NSW Junior Rugby Union State Championships. The best U13 rugby teams from across the state converged on Dubbo’s Apex Oval complex for a thrilling weekend of junior football and the reaction from those who travelled, the players, their parents and families, was one of awe at the local facilities and organisation according to Dubbo Junior ‘Roos president Jason Blake.

“All weekend we’ve had team officials and parents thank us for staging the event,” Mr Blake told Dubbo Photo News, “So thanks to all our hard-working volunteers and also council staff who did a great job.” Dubbo Photo News spoke to many parents of players who were thrilled to travel inland for a change, with most of these competitions having been held closer to the eastern seaboard. Parramatta’s Two-Blues had a giant forward pack and skillful backs taking out the grand final against a spirited Gordon outfit 27-7.

CONTRIBUTING PEOPLE

Dubbo Photo News June 17-23, 2021

In the course of life, people of all interests make their contribution to their communities and sometimes a book has been written about their eﬀorts. Back in the 1960s P A Yeomans introduced his ideas in the early 1960s, farming a property south west of Bathurst. At the time chisel ploughing was used to help conserve soil moisture in paddocks and he developed a modiﬁed version which could penetrate the hard pan level without bringing up subsoil to the surface. He continued over time, practising contour cultivation, water storage in farm dams, the layout of better farm roads, gravity irrigation, erosion control and solving salt problems. A book covering these achievements is “Water for Every Farm” compiled by his son, Ken Yeomans.

In 2017 Charles Massey who wrote “Call of the Reed Warbler” presented his book to Dubbo people at a function. He writes to encourage the way we farm, exploring regenerative agriculture and the vital connection between our soil and our health. Using his personal farming experience as a basis, he tells the real story behind industrial agriculture and the global proﬁt obsessive corporations driving it. He relates how innovative farmers are ﬁnding a new way, regenerating their land and witness astounding transformations. Whether your interest is in backyard gardening or broadacres, health worker or public leader the book presents a clear view of a sustainable future for our food supply, our landscape and our health. The book includes positive references to farming land at Narromine.

The nation’s sheep numbers have decreased substantially and shearers are hard to ﬁnd. Geoﬀrey Barrett is the author of “An Inspirational Board” which records his 50 years of shearing as well as the ten basic steps of shearing a sheep. Now a resident in Dubbo the author worked in sheds in southern Queensland and northern NSW, developing his work to become a leading contractor. The book includes the graphic coverage of shearing and a section on the “top eight” shearers.

Mark Nelson has written “Jim Hazelton – Born to Fly.” The first Australian to fly the Pacific solo in a single-engine aircraft, Jim crossed the Pacific over 200 times working in the hazardous business of ferrying light aircraft. In the 1960s he and his brother were active spreading fertilizer by aircraft, working in the Dubbo region.

EINSTEIN WAS RIGHT Edited by Jeb Buchwald. Subtitled “The Science and History of Gravitational Waves” it brings together essays by some of the main physicists who conﬁrmed Alberts Einstein’s prediction of gravitational waves as well as contributions by several experts on Einstein - general relativity, and the philosophy and sociology of science.

POWER OF MONEY

Hardly a day passes where we hear or read of some corruption activities focused on money. With the Federal Budget recently introduced the opinions and strategies flowed. A book being a #1 Best Seller “The Deficit Myth” by Stephanie Kelton writes on “how to build a better economy.” Supporting the economy, paying for health care: saving businesses, creating new jobs, preventing a climate apocalypse; how are we going to pay for it all? The title shows that things we’ve been led to believe about deficits and government is wrong. Instead, the author describes how we can use our resources responsibly to maximise our potential as a society. The USA and UK media is very supportive – as one says ,“Convincingly overturns conventional wisdom” – and notes “a radical new plan for building a just and prosperous society.”

Graham Hancock wrote “Lords of Poverty” which relates to the aid care for poor nations. Every year the world’s cost for all oﬃcial aid is paid by the richest countries. Ordinary tax payers who contribute think that the money goes to the poorest. But it doesn’t. Where it does go beggars belief – and this book examines so many examples. In India 300 million subsist below the poverty line. When Imelda Marcos and her husband were in control of the Philippines they were estimated to have embezzled some $10 billion – most taken from foreign aid provided by Western taxpayers. It is now a recent book but it deals with the situations in Africa where the issue continues.

Author Jeﬀrey Sachs wrote “The End of Poverty” which covers how we can make it happen in our lifetime. Our generation has the opportunity to end extreme poverty in the world’s most desperate nations. The author, recognised as “probably the world’s most important economist” has travelled to over 100 countries advising leaders of economic development and poverty reduction. He lays out how poverty has been beaten in the past, and how we can make a diﬀerence the 20% of humanity can escape the poverty trap.

MONEY LAND By Oliver Bullough. Subtitled “Why Thieves & Crooks Now Rule the World & How to Take it Back” this reveals the obscene dark side of globalised finance. Read about the realm of oligarchs and gangsters, their power and zero accountability. You can see its effects are occurring everywhere. How did we get there? A small group of bankers in London had the idea - “offshore,” a zone where money could flow free. That created a reservoir of secret wealth, and one that bends the laws of every nation on Earth so that it protects it’s masters.

CHURCHILL & ORWELL

by Thomas Ricks, “Subtitled The Fight for Freedom” the Pulitzer Prize winning title is a dual biography of the two key minds of the 20th century. Both came close to death in the mid1930s – Orwell shot in the neck on the trenches in the Spanish Civil War. Churchill was struck by a car in New York City. At the time neither had been seen as major personalities. Yet both Churchill and Orwell had the foresight to see clearly that the issue was human freedom, that the challenges of the totalitarian menace of Communism and Facism would deny us basic freedoms and had to be resisted. #06139 HB JUST $19.95

Initially she wrote it for herself, but during 1944 a member of the Dutch government in exile spoke on radio from London that after the war he hoped to collect eyewitness accounts of the suﬀering of Dutch People under German Occupation. The Frank family, who were in hiding, were arrested and later two secretaries working in the building found Anne’s diaries.

Through her work with the escape route network she helped a thousand Allied POWs and downed airmen reach safety, yet she had to escape from the French herself to avoid capture by the Germans – she had risen to the top of their most wanted list.
