Sun beats on the green
THE sun angrily beat down, burning and blistering our skin. Our mouths were parched from dehydration and hoarse screaming, and muddy feet crowded under the lone sprinkler. But through it all, the 5000 people at A Day On The Green Rutherglen left smiling, with bellies full of quality wine and food, and the residual excitement of a thrilling live performance, or four. “Despite the really uncomfortable conditions with the heat on Saturday, the show went incredibly well in terms of both the band performances and the reaction from the crowd,” A Day on the Green spokesperson Chrissy Camp said. “So we were really happy with the whole day – we think it was another winner.” British India kicked the event off in the heat of the day with a fantastic performance, followed closely by Something For Kate and You Am I. The headlining act Hunters and Collectors did not disappoint, forcing crowds up and out of their seats, fists pumping, sweat beading. With a demographic spanning a good 50 years, A Day On The Green was a true family festival. More pictures, Social Seen page 8
Council doesn’t want to know about …
Protest petition By KRYSTEN MANUEL ALBURY CITY has advised organisers of a petition seeking the banning of protesting outside a medical clinic in Englehardt Street to table their petition with the State Government. The statement from Albury City was distributed last night on the eve of a meeting held at St Matthew’s Church to show support for moving the protesters to the other side of the road, and just after the distribution of a petition with the same objective.
But the timely statement from council has been rejected by local advocates against the abortion protesters. “I’m very disappointed with the media release from the Albury Council,” Dr Pieter Mourik said. “I do believe the councillors should be able to review their by-laws and see if there is any way that they could have an exclusion zone as part of their bylaws.” Albury City Mayor Cr Kevin Mack said the State Government was better positioned to legislate for the exclusion
zones being sought by petitioners, not the local council. “This is not a debate about personal opinions or beliefs, it’s a matter of law and in this circumstance the State Government is the most suitable authority for implementing and enforcing legislation,” he said. “Our powers under the Local Government legislation are limited in dealing with these matters, so we have encouraged the organisers to take up their cause with, and present their petition to, the State Government.”
But Dr Mourik said he had been advised the action was well within the power of local council. “I understand that only five councillors need to be agreed to the by-laws for them to be reviewed,” he said. “The reason for the petition is in response to a letter from the council where they said they would only review their local by-laws if there was evidence of significant community interest. “I think the meeting tonight will give the Albury Council a very loud indication that the Albury citizens are
absolutely fed up with the behaviour of protesters.” The mayor said while he supported the right to petition, he also supported the right of anyone to participate in a peaceful protest and for anyone to seek medical assistance free from harassment, and maintained the issue was not something that could be resolved by a council by-law. “This is a complex social issue that goes far beyond Albury and it’s important that groups work with the relevant tier of government. In this case, it is the State Government.”

Meat masters BREEDING for feedlot performance and carcass traits has paid off for a family from Holbrook, with a win in one of the southern hemisphere’s biggest beef cattle trials. Andrew, Anne and Tom Hicks of Hicks Beef Holbrook took out the feedlot performance and Riverine Tender Cut championships from 78 teams in the competitive 2014 NSW Beef Spectacular Feedback Trial. Scoring a total of 828 points from 1000, their team of five spring-drop composite steers came up trumps, taking out the overall reserve grand championship. Andrew Hicks said the Hicks Beef genetics had performed consistently since first entering the competition in 2011. Now in its fifth year, the feedback trial drew a record 600 steers, comprising 16 breeds and their crosses, entered by 78 vendors from three states. Each team of five steers had points allocated for induction, feedlot performance and carcass traits. Weighing between 320420kg at feedlot entry, the steers were fed over 112 days at Teys Australia’s Jindalee feedlot, Stockinbingal, east of Temora. They were processed in January at Teys Australia Wag-

For the Hicks family, the results backed up their overall win in the 2012 trial, a win in the carcass section and overall ranking of third in the 2011 event. This year, their team was $481 more profitable than the trial average, with average daily weight gains in the feedlot ranging from 2.59 to 2.88kg. Dressing percentages topped at 58.8, eye muscle area at
111sqcm and saleable meat yield at 71.8 per cent. The family runs a 1400 composite and Red Angus cow herd on their Holbrook property, Andrew Hicks said the feedback validated their scientifically developed Australian Beef Composite, using a blend of high muscle and marbling genetics of European and British breeds. He said the Australian Beef Composite now comprised eight generations within the herd, with new genetics added as trait reliability and accuracy increased.
Cool cash flows to rescue Festival organiser Shannon White said the festival was back in full swing this year, with targets met and everyone commenting that the festival was a great success. “It was a wonderful weekend - no fires, no torrential rain which we have had unfortunately in the past, the weather was perfect,” Ms White said. “We got between 700 and 800 people which is what we were aiming for. It’s not only benefiting the General Hotel, there would have been at least eight lodges that were full, a number of apartments as well, and also down in Dinner Plain a lot of people hired houses.” Ms White said in the fortnight leading up to last year’s festival, fires were actually threatening the villages. “We cancelled not only because of the fire danger, but there was a major landslide on the road as well and the road was closed for quite some time, making access difficult,” she said. “A lot of the businesses suffered. “It was a crazy time because normal business couldn’t go ahead. The town obviously had a lot of firefighters in there for a long time, but once all the firefighters left and the road remained closed, it certainly was tight times for all the businesses.” Ms McEwan said the 2013 fires also affected the biggest business weekend of the year
By KRYSTEN MANUEL SMOKE from the current Victorian fires wisps its way towards Mount Hotham and Dinner Plain, with residents waking up to a blood red sun. It’s a chilling reminder of the savage fires that nearly took the mountain villages almost exactly this time last year. And despite a tireless, joint effort from fire-fighters, parks and residents, the effects of the fires spread across six months thanks to road closures, meaning the 2013 Cool Summer Festival was cancelled and businesses suffered immensely. But this year business owners breathed a sigh of relief, with revenues up 400 per cent plus thanks to the re-opening of the festival. “The increase in revenue was about 400 per cent for us because over the period of the fires, specifically just prior to the Cool Summer Festival, it meant the only traffic we had that week were emergency services or the local population, of which there were very few people,” Mountain Kitchen owner Alison McEwan said. “Having events like that is very important because it brings new people into the area. It gives people an opportunity to see what it’s like during the summer. “Economically, it has an impact that reaches to not only food and beverage outlets, but also for accommodation.”
for them, with lasting effects stretching on into the snow season. “The Easter weekend is the busiest weekend of the year, summer or winter for us,” she said. “It was all over by Easter but the difficulty last year was we had nearly six months altogether of road closures. So from the time the fires started, which was at the end of January, until about the 30th of May, we had rolling complete road closures, partial road closures or traffic management. “That had the biggest impact because it simply meant we didn’t have passers by, tourists or anything for effectively that four-month period prior to the winter, and then we had another month of road closures during the winter. “The guys worked hard to keep everything open for Easter weekend, but after that it was back to road closures.” Mount Hotham and Dinner Plain count almost entirely on tourists for business, both summer and winter. “One of the main things that has made a big difference, obviously the Cool Summer Festival is increasing in popularity, but also there’s a number of cyclists that are travelling up and down the hill,” Ms McEwan said. “We’re a standing station for the Seven Peaks Passports, so that made it very busy for us. A lot of people are training for the cycling events coming up in March as well.”

$10,000 projects wanted
BDCB chairman Jamie Horne with customer service officers Tracy Johns and Jess Mott.
THE Beechworth and District Community Bank (BDCB) has again upped the ante among local and regional banks, with an additional $10,000 per year commitment to local community groups. This funding comes on top of the $45,000 it has already committed to for the 2014 financial year. “Our whole banking model is focused on donating our profits back into the community via grants and sponsorships,” BDCB chairman Jamie Horne said. “Over the past two years, our growth has exceeded all expectations which, in turn, has enabled us to return even more to the communities we live in, work in, shop in and raise our families. It is great to have so many locals banking local and seeing the profits from their banking kept local.” At its last board meeting, the BDCB directors unanimously
agreed to pursue projects for which it could potentially provide up to $10,000 in seed capital mid range community projects. “What we are looking for are community projects that will add to our local facilities and infrastructure,” Mr Horne said. “Ideally, a concept will be presented to us from which our contribution of $10,000 can be used as the seed capital and leveraged against local, state of federal funding to create a much larger amount for a larger project. “We are not looking to run or co-ordinate the project ourselves” Mr Horne also said partnering with other organisations to create even bigger pools of funds for community projects would be an opportunity the BDCB would jump at. “Absolutely, we are all about partnerships and positive out-
comes,” he said. “We have already contacted Indigo Shire Council with five potential ideas which range from festival infrastructure assets, youth projects, seasonal celebrations, health and well being equipment and street beautification.” Mr Horne confirmed that groups and individuals are welcome to contact the branch to present their project ideas to staff. All submissions should be in writing and meet criteria. One of the main considerations is that these funds must be used for a broader communitybased project, not to benefit any one specific group or organisation. The BDCB has, in three years, returned or facilitated over $360,000 back into the regional communities where its customers reside.

Testing times for our water USING saline water on your farm can have a negative impact on plant and livestock productivity and lead to a decline in the longer term health and productivity of soils. Department of Environment and Primary Industries (DEPI) land health officer Kylie Macreadie says testing salinity levels of water used on your farm can be a quick and easy task. “From a simple test DEPI can provide farmers with an understanding of appropriate uses for their water, based on known salinity tolerance levels of plants and livestock,” Ms Macreadie said. “In the north east region, 54 per cent of saline discharge sites are within 100 metres of a waterway. There are streams and groundwater with salinity levels high enough to impact on plants and animals.” DEPI staff regularly monitor 60 streams for salinity. Ms Macreadie said the monitoring helped to establish trends and identify ‘hot spots’ where land managers needed to be aware of managing the heightened possibility of salinity threats. “Monitoring during summer when evaporation and water use is high, or after rainfall events, can aid in identifying times of

“Our educators are trained and supported by a team of qualified and very experienced early childhood professionals in our coordination unit.
Educators are required to either already hold or be working towards a formal child care qualification. “Some have already achieved their Diploma or Bachelor degree which means families can be confident that their children will be cared for and educated by people who are very capable, dedicated and truly passionate about children’s wellbeing.” The service is unique in that despite being a small rural service, it covers a vast geographic area with 39 family day care educators and 12 in-home care educators. Greater Hume Children Services has a great team of educators who form partnerships with families. “We’re very family focused and always try to accommodate the needs of the family,” Greater Hume Children Services educator Glenda Rogerson said. “Many families have different needs for their childcare. Greater Hume has taken on in-home care, so they offer a huge range of options for families. “Greater Hume Children Services provides families with resources and information to help them with their childcare decisions and Greater Hume child services is now in Wodonga and families need to know they have options for flexible hours of care” Glenda has been a Family Day Educator for 27 years and offers families the in home care family day care service.

‘STOP and rest’ is the message for all Hume Highway motorists, who will soon see work beginning to improve rest facilities 18 kilometres south of Holbrook. Member for Albury, Greg Aplin advised Roads and Maritime Services is planning work to start later this month. The Australian Government provided $1.25 million for the Blue Metal Hill Rest Area upgrade under the Nation Building and Heavy Vehicle Safety and Productivity programs. “The project aims to encourage drivers of heavy vehicles to comply with legally required rest break requirements by providing improved rest, toilet, shade, shelter and load checking facilities,” Mr Aplin said. Electronic message signs and safety fencing are in place to alert motorists to the upgrade and access to the rest area will be maintained during the work. Work will be carried out on weekdays from 7am to 6pm and from 8am to 1pm on Saturdays, and is scheduled to be completed by the end of June, weather permitting.

White Pages Product Manager Sarah Simpson said this year’s covers celebrated humble community members who didn’t always get the recognition they deserved. “There are thousands of Australians going the extra mile to help other people succeed and never ask for thanks or recognition. We wanted to honour these local legends who sometimes hide in the shadows and elevate them to a place where everyone can celebrate them,” she said. “This year we are thrilled to recognise David’s efforts inspiring his community.” This year’s Albury White Pages and Yellow Pages will be distributed in a new ‘ideal size’ and page layout and will take around six weeks to reach each household. The new book will be easier to handle, use and store.

Just ring to skip your old rubbish routine WHEN gardening, renovating or building on a commercial or private scale, tasks like getting rid of rubbish need to be as quick and painless as possible. You want convenience, punctuality, professionalism and for your expectations of quality service to be met – so you call Jim’s Skip Bins! The Jim’s Group has been a trusted household name for three decades – and all Aussie. Having started out as a part-time gardening venture, founder Jim Penman soon turned a simple business into an empire. Currently, there are over 2,900 Jim’s franchisees in four countries, growing at the rate of around 200 per year. With a solid focus on each and every facet of customer service, franchisee owners like Wodonga’s Trevor Winter emulate the very heart of what makes the Jim’s Group so successful. “My son Anthony was working for another brand of franchise when he started looking for himself,” Trevor said. “He got into Jim’s so I began to investigate Jim’s as well and thought ‘this is a good thing!’ “Customer service is what it’s about for me – Customers want to know the driver is professional and well trained, that he operates good equipment and is well presented. Being on time, reliable, price competitive and safe completes the package. “Jim’s guarantee is 100 per cent satisfaction – that’s a big benefit to people. Franchisees are encouraged
to use complaints as an opportunity to learn and to work with the customer to resolve the issue raised. Customers are also surveyed to make sure they’re happy with their service.” Trevor will service both households and commercial entities, all you have to do is dial 131 546 and Trevor will call you within two hours – guaranteed. “You phone the call centre or book online,” he said. “Within the two hours I call you to discuss your requirements, provide a quote and if you are ready, arrange a delivery time. Once we’ve spoken about the quote and you are happy with it, we can send a copy via email. “When the quote is accepted it is followed by an invoice which is also sent by email. I deliver the bin and when it’s delivered and paid for you get the receipt via email. If people don’t have an email address, no worries – we can mail or drop of the paperwork in person, it’s all part of the service. “The time you have the skip for is negotiable – we try to be as flexible as we can. I have an Eftpos machine in the truck and for corporate clients we can set them up with a viable payment plan and account.” Trevor currently services Albury and Wodonga and hopes to purchase a second vehicle in years to come – one for each town. But his sights are set high, with eyes on surrounding towns as well. “There is fantastic opportunity for building up business on the Border
considering the growth that’s occurring and planned for the future,” he said. “There’s no Jim’s Skip Bin franchise in Wagga, I don’t think there’s one in Wangaratta or Corowa either, so there’s a lot of opportunity to expand the business into the whole region.” And if the security of having the entire Jim’s Group behind this simple
business doesn’t give you enough peace of mind, rest assured Trevor is not only invested in the skip business, but in the Border community as well. “We’ve made Albury Wodonga our home,” he said. “We moved from Melbourne in September to be closer to our grandchildren, and we’ve always liked living in the country rather than the city.
100%
“We are settling into the community and have found the locals really friendly, which has made moving to a new environment that much easier.” “If you see me around town don’t be afraid to say hello – and call me Jim if you can’t remember my name!” Call 131 546 or visit www.jimsskipbins.com.au for your quote today.

CONGRATULATIONS Peter MacLeod-Miller for a letter that encapsulates the activities of the powerful and the vulnerable. And I wonder why the members of the “Helpers of God’s Precious Infants” aren’t working in underdeveloped countries to assist the huge numbers of already born suffering and starving infants and children if they are so worried about preserving life? Or assisting those with large families who are struggling to support their children? Or giving some respite time to those with infants and children who need 24-hour specialised care, rather than standing on a footpath and harassing others with their self-righteous beliefs? The issue still is that those who attend the clinic have the right to make their own extremely hard choices without being scrutinised by the so-called “Helpers of God” for goodness sake. And please community members who are tired of the actions of the “helpers” sign the petitions being made available at St Matthew’s Church and Albury Day Surgery. Wendy Cole, Albury.
We stand transformed I ENJOYED reading about the functional, creative result of a local traineeship targeting young Aboriginal folk. I wonder, though, about the heading of the article: “Transforming their lives”. This is an outdated journalistic style that, even while
important steps are being made to better our community, nonetheless perpetuates the “us” and “them” culture that is so destructive for all. Do you not reckon we are ALL transformed for the better, when we have beautiful, functional bike racks to use, and when young people are able to work in a meaningful way that helps structure their lives? I think ‘they’ are transforming their lives AND our lives; we are all on this boat (planet) together. Ruby Rowat, Albury.
Not helpful OVER the last few weeks there have been several letters about this issue. I don’t intend to talk about whether a group of cells formed six or so weeks, in some cases, after the union of a sperm and an ovum is a human being or the religious beliefs of the protesters are right or wrong. I would ask the protesters could consider for a moment the beliefs and feelings of those who choose to use the service. Can I ask if the protesters would be happy if I and a group of supporters gathered outside their church or their children’s schools with banners and placards highlighting the abuse of children, both girls and boys by priests of their church and the shameful cover-up by the church hierarchy including popes and cardinal. I suspect that you would not like this. By all means pray if your religion tells you that’s what will help, but leave these people alone and go elsewhere. David Thurley, Lavington.
Say it with condoms NO-ONE wants to think about sexually transmissible infections on Valentine’s Day, but the day is a great opportunity to think about how you are keeping yourself safe. National Condom Day falls on Valentine’s Day - 14 February, to bring into focus the need for being aware of the risks of contracting an STI said Dr Elizabeth Farrell AM. “We want women to know that
they can catch an STI at any age, so even if you’re not worried about getting pregnant anymore, you still need to use a condom to practice safer sex,” Dr Farrell said. While common STIs in Australia, including chlamydia, gonorrhoea, syphilis, HIV and genital herpes are seen at higher levels in teenagers and young adults, anecdotally doctors are seeing a rise in some of these conditions in older women.

New childcare choice FAMILIES with young children in the region can benefit from greater choices in childcare and education with Greater Hume Children’s Services (GHCS) now being available in Victoria. This is another achievement by the service that has had recent successes in being selected from 163 services across NSW with an award in excellence as NSW Co-ordination Unit of the Year by Family Day Care Australia. The service was also successful in being one of the first services to be assessed as exceeding the national standard by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority. “We are pleased with our growth and recognition of our service and are looking forward to bringing this to families in Victoria,� service manager Rose Nauer said. “Our educators are trained and supported by a team of qualified and very experienced early childhood professionals in our co-ordination unit. Educators are required to either already hold or
be working towards a formal childcare qualification. “Some have already achieved their diploma or bachelor degree which means families can be confident that their children will be cared for and educated by people who are very capable, dedicated and truly passionate about children’s wellbeing.� The service is unique in that despite being a small rural service, it covers a vast geographic area with 39 family day care educators and 12 inhome care educators. GHCS have a great team of educators who form partnerships with families to provide the best service possible.

Fire plan for animals, too THE Department of Environment and Primary Industries (DEPI) is urging the community to be prepared and establish a fire plan for animals as well as the family. DEPI Manager Animal Health and Welfare Operations Robert Suter said it was up to all of us to plan ahead and to prepare for the safety and welfare of pets, livestock or other animals well before an emergency impacts on home or property. “DEPI have extensive guidelines available which are designed to help you make these preparations to ensure the welfare of your animals this fire season,” Dr Suter said. “If you are planning to evacuate your animals you must make preparations now - before the emergency - in order to avoid chaos and confusion later. “This plan needs to include all of your animals (pets and livestock) and prevention measures to minimise the impact of the emergency. “Too often in the past lastminute efforts to save animals have led to tragedy for both humans and animals. “The basis of any emergency plan is the safety of you and your family, which includes taking any action to protect animals or property early before the emergency is impacting your property. “Not all animals may be able to be evacuated and owners should decide ahead of time which ones they will be evacuating with and make arrangements for those that will be left behind to give them the best possible chance of surviving.” Livestock and horses should be moved to low-risk areas. In the case of fire, low-risk areas
Plan ahead and prepare for the safety and welfare of your pets. may be cultivated paddocks with no vegetation, bared-out paddocks, green paddocks or a large, well-fenced sand ménage. Dr Suter said low-risk areas should not be next to areas of scrub or bushland, or at least large enough in size to allow animals to move well away from these areas. “It is important to remember low-risk areas must be available at all times during the fire season and at short notice,” he said. “All low risk areas should have sufficient drinking water to enable stock to remain in this area during periods of high to extreme temperatures for several days. “Low-risk areas should also be protected by firebreaks.
“On a Code Red day, leaving high-risk bushfire areas the night before or early in the morning is the safest option do not wait and see what will happen. It is unlikely you will be able to safely move your animals once an emergency is in your area.” In recent fire events, many people who planned to leave took longer to get ready than they had expected. This resulted in them being delayed and leaving when fire was upon them often with tragic consequences. Guidelines are available at www.depi.vic.gov.au/fire-andemergencies/animals-in-emergencies For more information please contact DEPI Customer Service Centre on 136 186 or visit website at www.depi.vic.gov.au

Voice of youth YOUNG people in Indi have a fantastic chance to be part of a forum bringing together likeminded people from across the world to engage in discussion on the global financial challenges. Indi MP Cathy McGowan is encouraging local people aged 18-30 to apply to be part of a five-person Australian delegation at the Y20 Summit this year in Sydney. The summit will be held on 12-15 July and is the premier youth forum associated with the G20 Summit, supported by the Department of Education. This is a major platform for young people to make their voices heard on the global economic challenges ahead, and will also include policy discussion involving delegates representing the G20 states. Ideas generated at the summit will be presented to the G20 Leaders Summit for their consideration. “This is a wonderful opportunity for young people to make their voice heard on a world stage, with delegates from other G20 nations sharing their thoughts and ideas on policy affecting youth,” Ms McGowan said. “To be involved and engaged in such an event would be such a beneficial experience on many levels, including international connectivity and networking potential, sharing of big ideas, gaining other perspectives from across the G20 states, and simply enjoying the company of new people with a passion for discussing the issues they’re facing.

Heart bears the weight IF YOU are overweight and struggling to keep to your weight loss resolutions, don’t give up, as even a modest loss of 10 per cent of your body weight can have a positive impact on heart health. A recent US study of middleaged women who were either overweight or obese showed that a 10 per cent reduction in body weight was enough to lower their risk of developing heart disease. Rachelle Foreman, Heart Foundation health director (Queensland), said it was important that people set realistic weight loss goals and maintained them. “Many people who know they have a weight problem charge into the New Year with a burst of enthusiasm to lose a dramatic amount of weight,” Ms Foreman said. “But when it comes to weight loss, slow and steady wins the race. “The best thing you can do for your health is set an attainable weight loss target and keep the weight off for a longer period of time. “A goal of 10 per cent weight loss should be achievable for most people through simple everyday changes to their diet and level of physical activity.”
The US research noted that women involved in short-term weight loss programs tended to lose more weight initially, but after six months many had started to regain it. However, those who lost and sustained at least 10 per cent of their overall body weight for two years had reduced levels of ‘bad’ cholesterol, reduced levels of triglycerides (a type of blood fat), better control of their glucose and insulin levels and less inflammation in their bodies. Ms Foreman said the US study confirmed similar research conducted in Australia that also included men. “Heart disease is the biggest killer of Australians and reducing your heart disease risk is a great gift to give yourself in 2014,” Ms Foreman said. For most people being a healthy weight means having a BMI (body mass index) between 18.5 and 24.9, but waist circumference is also a good indicator - women should aim for a waist measurement of less than 80cm and men for less than 94cm.

Efforts are being made to close the health gap between Aboriginal and Torres Straight Islanders people and other Australians.
Food security to close the gap LEADING health organisations, the Dietitians Association of Australia and the Public Health Association of Australia, have joined forces with Australian Red Cross to draw attention to the health gap between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and other Australians, due to food insecurity. The three organisations are releasing their December 2013 Food Security for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples policy at Parliament House in Canberra. According to the organisations, one in four (24 per cent) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander People report food insecurity, compared with just five per cent of non-Indigenous Australians. Public Health Association of Australia CEO Michael Moore said: ‘We’re calling on all levels of Government to address food insecurity in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander
people. Many in this population group do not have access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food to lead a healthy and active life - an issue they say is not getting any better and needs urgent attention. “Factors such as poverty, low or inadequate incomes, poor housing, including basic set-ups to store and prepare food, and less access to nutritious food place these Australians at higher risk,” Dietitians Association of Australia CEO Claire Hewat said. “The result is that many Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families go hungry, and that diet-related diseases run rife in this population. “Sadly, in this group of Australians, we see high rates of preventable dietrelated diseases like obesity, type 2 diabetes and heart disease.” Ms Hewat said nutrition needed to be a top priority if the health of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peo-
ple was to improve. According to Jennifer Evans, national co-ordinator, Families Children and Food Security at Australian Red Cross, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people do not have an equal opportunity to be as healthy as nonIndigenous Australians, with poorer access to healthy food, primary health care and health infrastructure. “This is reflected in data showing life expectancy for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people is 11.5 years shorter for males and almost 10 years shorter for females, compared with other Australians,” Ms Evans said. The Food Security for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples policy highlights the need for all levels of government to take the lead in addressing food insecurity, working with non-government organisations and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Fitness goals set STAY committed to your fitness goals this year and commit to a better you. With a new year comes new challenges and new opportunities. For many Australians, this is in relation to their health and fitness goals. Anytime Fitness recognises this and wants to help their members stay on track to achieving their goals. “Many of us start the year off in full speed, but it often doesn’t last long and we quickly lose focus,� Anytime Fitness Albury club manager Elle Bradley said. “It takes three weeks to create a habit, and for the majority of people they fall out of routine long before this. “We are offering our members a few simple tips to start the year and help them commit to their new goals. “First of all, sleep well. The average person requires at least 7 hours sleep per night in order to keep their energy levels high throughout the day. “They also recommend decreasing your portion size. It’s a known fact that Australians are eating too much in the 21st century. Try slowly decreasing the size of your meals. You will still feel full and won’t be tempted to snack like you think you might be.� “Most importantly, eat breakfast. It will kickstart your metabolism for the day and keep you feeling fuller for longer. “Try mixing up your workout routine as well. Talk to one of our personal trainers or train with a friend. “A trainer will motivate you and ensure you are performing exercises cor-

this is a piece of equipment, a new activity, or a food you’ve never tried, variety won’t let you down.� For more information on how Anytime Fitness can help you achieve your goals, visit anytimefitness.com.au or phone 1300 ANYTIME.
COMMUNITY and sporting groups are being asked to help the Wodonga community to be more active, more often as part of Premier’s Active April. Formerly the Premier’s Active Families Challenge, the campaign aims to improve participants’ health and well-being by participating in physical activity. Healthy Together Wodonga is asking community groups, clubs, and organisations to collaborate on a calendar of activities throughout April by providing information on programs, activities, events and come-and-try days. “Local clubs and organisations play an important part in encouraging the community to participate in physical activity,� Healthy Together Wodonga team leader Claire Taylor said. “The idea is to support the whole community to come along and join in some affordable and accessible fun. “Being involved is a great way for group and clubs to promote
themselves to the community and join forces with a major state-wide campaign.� The Wodonga Sports and Leisure Centre, through the YMCA, is a key sponsor of the Wodonga campaign. Activities need to be either free or low cost - to the value of $10 and the calendar will promote activities that are already planned, not just specially organised activities. Clubs and organisations can submit an activity through the expression of interest form found on the website at wodonga.vic.gov.au/ healthytogether under ‘News/projects’, by phoning the Healthy Together Wodonga team on 02 6022 9300 or picking one up at the council’s offices. Anyone can register as a participant with Premier’s Active April at activeapril.vic.gov.au Participants receive incentives, have the chance to win prizes and get updates on Wodonga activities. An Activity Tracker app will also be available. Participation is free.

Wagga Road, Lavington Support these local businesses WAGGA ROAD has been a major commercial hub in the Albury region for many years. The combination of large commercial sites and a diverse range of businesses has ensured its longevity both prior to and since the construction of the Hume Freeway bypass. And if Albury Northside Chamber of Commerce has any say in it, the area will continue to forge ahead with future planning and new developments changing the shape of the street. Chair of the chamber Phil Clements says there’s plenty of confidence in the area, both from the Chamber and the existing businesses. “The businesses there are there for the long run, and obviously doing well,” he says. “The new developments that are happening in the area are going to inject a degree of positivity there as well. The prospects for the region generally are very bright. “I think Wagga Road is going to be a significant player in a commercial sense going forward.”

Electro visual show By KRYSTEN MANUEL THE Border will welcome an intriguing new sound with local rock-electro outfit Insert Memory launching their debut album Beauty Flowers at The Cube in coming weeks. Formed in 2012, Insert Memory is composed of lead vocalist Shannon Flanagan, vocalist/ keyboardist Hannah Mitchell and her younger brother Lachlan on guitar and vocals, Emily Weavers on bass, Emma Quirk on keyboard and DJ CandyB, all brought together with original music by Craig Dent and Dale Tassie in sessions with Ms Flanagan. “We’re doing rock-electro, but we’ve added a whole visual show with it,” Mr Dent said. “We’re all about being as cutting edge as we can, but still appeal to people in the contemporary music sense.” The visual aspects of the show were photographed and designed by Mr Dent, with video surveillance footage by film-maker John Kovacs, as well as the intro news by Wodonga sisters Josie and Emi Hanuska. The band has even added a virtual drummer with Ms Mitchell’s design skill and the help of the Academy of Interactive Entertainment (AIE). “We’ve developed, with the
For a unique musical/ visual experience, don’t miss Insert Memory this Saturday. AIE, a 3D drummer,” Ms Mitchell said. “I was inspired by a recent trip to Japan. Lachy and I are right into the anime scene, so it was inspired by a few different anime characters. “I drew it, sent it off to the institute, they translated our drawing into the programs they were using with motion capture and an actual drummer.
“The AIE have been working on drumming patterns with an actual drummer and then they’ve programmed her to copy those so she’ll be ready for the launch.” The first free teaser song Spandex Expands is available on the band’s website www.insertmemory.com and via www. facebook.com/InsertMemory and a second free song, Honey Your Name Melts in
My Mouth was released prelaunch in mid-September 2013. The new song is part of a suite of nine lyrics written for the album and is dedicated to the memory of Mr Dent’s friend Karen McLean who was lost to cancer. Another track on the album, X-rays of the Forest Floor is also about over-coming grief, whilst teaser Spandex Expands is about self-identity. “It’s important that the show isn’t that trippy it alienated people, so there are actually some really heartfelt songs in there,” Mr Dent said. The sound of Insert Memory has been developing, particularly in the past year, to lean further towards rock than before. “In terms of the sound, I originally found it really obscure and hard to play to be honest,” Mr Mitchell said. “But we slowly made it more of a rock sound. It was very electro and crazy, but now it surprisingly fits really well and it’s good fun to play.” Insert Memory is playing at Wodonga’s Artspace at 7pm 9pm, Saturday 15 August. Tickets are available from www.insertmemory.com for $20, including autographed CD, or $10 for the live show only.

Tin man has feet of clay ROBOCOP (M) Starring: Joel Kinnamon, Abbie Cornish, Samuel L. Jackson READY for another creepy, soulless re-make that’s totally unnecessary? Then you’re ready for Robocop. In fact, it’s the worst remake since the abysmal Total Recall effort. This film fails on so many levels, it almost erases the kitschy, sly original. Joel Kinnamon takes the lead role, in the worst miscasting since Harvey Keitel in the original Apocalypse Now shoot speaking of disasters... Arthouse Kinnamon, best-known for his role in the American version of The Killing, tries to play cop Alex Murphy, horribly injured and rehabilitated in a crime-fighting hyperalloy combat chassis. The train first runs off the tracks when the Robocop repairers take away every part of Alex apart from his head, lungs and,
bizarrely, his right hand. Future relations with Mrs Robocop (Abbie Cornish) are looking more than a little problematic. Perversely, in an attempt to further humanise Robocop, they’ve made him less human. Themes of humanity, individuality, conscience, consumer culture, American imperialism and moral killing are laid on with a trowel, with none of the sly subtlety of the original. A case in point is Samuel L. Jackson, in shouty mode as a TV shock jock - epic fail, as the young people say. The film does work as a crash, bang, wallop, special effects powerhouse, but beyond that, not so much. Watch particularly for the very enjoyable opening sequence on the streets of Tehran, with US robots pacifying an urban population, coming under attack from suicide bombers. – Jason Beck

Silver screen travelogue CALLING all wanderlust travel enthusiasts and world adventurers! Want to see some of the world’s inspiring and dynamic travel adventure films in one action-packed weekend? The Adventure Travel Film Festival is for everyone who has ever known the highs of travelling the world and experiencing new cultures, people and places. It is for like-minded, traveladdicts of all backgrounds and those seeking inspiration for that next great expedition. It is also a reminder that adventure travel can be undertaken on even the simplest of scales and lowest of budgets and is open to anyone, anywhere. Beginning in the UK three years ago, the Adventure Travel Film Festival is now a must-do annual event for all British and travel-enthusiasts, and it’s fast becoming the same in Australia. The weekend festival was founded by Brit adventurers Austin Vince and Lois Pryce, who wanted to create a three-day event packed with all things adventure, including inspirational adventure travel films, speakers, workshops and social events guaranteed to stir the soul of seasoned adventurers, armchair travellers and dreamers alike to celebrate past experiences and inspire the next great adventure. Against the scenic backdrop of Victoria’s Great Alpine Valleys in beautiful Bright on 14 to 16 February, there will be screenings of some of the best adventure travel films ever made. The 2014 line-up includes a veritable smorgasbord of big names from the adventuring world attending the event from across the globe. Listeners will be on the edge of their seats for the re-telling

saw on TV, although polished and professional, were nothing in comparison to the real-life dramas that were arriving in our letterbox. “Once we started searching actively, films came to the surface that were absolutely mind-blowing. We were amazed, and excited, that adventures of this quality, old and new, were essentially unknown by the public. “The festival provides a platform for the best independent travel films, and a reminder that anyone from anywhere can experience life-changing adventures and capture it on film to
share with the world.” Among the many diverse and dynamic film highlights of the 2014 festival are African Odyssey - featuring four teenagers from New Zealand who motorcycle from Cape Town to London with no motorcycle experience and a borrowed camera, Janapar - a travel yarn which interweaves a love story across continents and cultures, Ocean Ambition - the tale of a young plucky Irishman’s attempt to row across the Atlantic Ocean from Morocco to Barbados and many more. Yes, it’s all happening at The Ad-
venture Travel Film Festival - whether you’re into trekking, motorcycling, 4x4-ing, kayaking, climbing, cycling, long-distance horse-riding or something more outlandish, it’s a must for any sane human, adventurer or not, who has ever dreamed of exploring our great wide world - itchy feet guaranteed. For the full festival program and updates, visit www.adventuretravelfilmfestival.com/australian-festival. Weekend passes (from $95) and day passes (from $65) are available in advance via the festival website.

WITH GEOFF HABERECHT OF TRU HIFI
Audio – all in the match 33% OFF RRP “IF ONLY I had known” is a comment echoed time and time again when the time has come to sorting out the mismatch of audio components. A common combination issue comes from early high quality electronics, being replaced by budget built low-end electronics. In the 1980s and ’90s, the products competed for the best reviews and the reviewing companies were generally at arm’s length, brands lived and died by the publications. Today, public relation companies along with multi levels of media exposure allows the middle and lower tier products to be presented and accepted in the market rapidly. By aligning with influential people, naming stadiums or arranging complementary articles, this has opened the pathway for the lower-tiered products, and ultimately they became part of the stack of boxes filling up the lounge room. From the mid 2000s, many quality brands have left the market, and they are still wondering what happened here, why was our product better and cheaper and we went out the back door, it is not just the boutique brands but the big companies like Sony and Panasonic are currently weathering the same threats. Higher grade electronics has been returning gradually to the market over the past five years with more variety and a greater level of competition, the problem for the consumer is what product is the real deal, and what product is a budgetmade product using a trusted brand logo of yesteryear.

Mismatched audio components - everyone’s nightmare. To help avoid the wrong choice by pass the overzealous sales person that has only one product in mind to sell you, which is usually the one with the best bonus for them. When a product has say 50 per cent off is it a true 50 per cent off when the discount is applied and is it 50 per cent cheaper than its genuine rivals? Check the history of the model if this model has had little change over a number of years then the likelihood it is a good model rather than a model that changes every six months. The ironic
Reg Price $14,995
sign is when the item is successful, it is usually simplified and user friendly, the further down the scale you go the items tend to have a more hi-tech feel when six buttons could have easily been replaced by one. 2014 will be a great year of choice for the budget conscious and the premium market. The recommendation is to match and balance your investment of a similar standard across all of your home entertainment requirements.

Homes&Property �� Albury Wodonga
Modern living at its best IT’S no surprise the proud owners of this truly superb home will be a little sad to say goodbye. Positioned in a unique cul de sac with a prime view of the Wodonga Golf Club’s 17th hole, 20 Oatlands Fairway offers the very best in modern living with the charm of natural beauty literally at your doorstep. From the outside, this home is already impressive, with muted tones of grey and cream, sharp lines and a cleverly low maintenance, drought tolerant, stylish garden. Large stained glass doors welcome you inside, with high ceilings and over-sized tiles, giving an airy feel to the already spacious entry. To your left, you will find the open-plan kitchen, dining and first of four living areas. The chef within will be drawn to the sizable kitchen with its 2 pak finish, quality Smeg appliances, 900ml cooktop and huge butler’s pantry. Light filled and with views to the golf course, the first living room provides more than enough space for the whole family, with security side door access to the yard. The master bedroom, direct-

ly opposite the living area, is an impressive king size, offers views to the golf course, ceiling fan and considerable walk-in robe - but real opulence is found in the ensuite. Following the same modern, classic tones, this room presents a luxurious spa, corner shower and heat lamps for those cold Border mornings. Bedroom two is also king size with ceiling fan and builtin robe for plenty of storage. Down the hallway, embellished with ornate plaster work and dado rail will take you past the second living area, sectioned off with elegant glass doors. This room would make the perfect cinema with just a couple of blinds installed. Further along will take you past the study - and not your typical under-sized crammy afterthought - a study with the size and versatility to be a gym, rumpus room or sitting room - whatever your heart desires. With views to the pool and extra storage, this room has much potential. The third living area also offers sliding doors and built-in robe. The third bedroom is queen
size - perfect for a nursery with built-in robe and ceiling fan. Further down the hallway and off to the right will take you past the laundry, a room with, again, plenty of storage and security sliding doors for yard access. The main bathroom is also located in this vicinity, with convenient separate toilet, spacious corner shower and a deep, soothing bath - for when the spa is already occupied. The final bedroom offers the same features as bedroom one and is also king size. Once exiting the house, you will find the yard is every bit as impressive as the house - with large undercover entertainment area, established palms and a pool that seems to painfully beckon visitors, especially in these warmer months. The yard extends around the house, with plenty of room for more garden - be it vegie, herb or flora. Finally, 20 Oatlands Fairway offers a double remote lock up garage, complete with workshop area. Don’t miss your chance to inspect this unique property.

Homes&Property Enzo Raimondo CEO Real Estate Institute of Victoria
Albury Wodonga
Diverse rent rates THE REIVâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthly rental vacancy figures include an overall rate for regional Victoria. But while the relatively low December 2013 rate (2.9 per cent) suggests rental homes are hard to find statewide, it is the rates for particular areas which tell the real story. The employment situation, economic factors, projects underway in regional towns and the amount of available rental stock are among the factors which can create big variations in rates. For example, the December 2013 figures show a rent-
al vacancy rate of just 1.8 per cent in Ballarat and the Central Highlands. That may be welcome news for investors seeking tenants, but it can create localised challenges for those seeking accommodation. While that was the lowest rate, the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s highest December rate - 6.3 per cent - was in East Gippsland and Wellington Shire, an area with limited economic opportunities and low household incomes. In Bendigo, where the December rate was 3 per cent, there is a history of rental
shortages - the market there was previously described as a treasure trove for property investors and it is expected to tighten again as the New Bendigo Hospital project steps up. As recently as two years ago, it was generally more difficult to find an affordable rental property in regional Victoria than in Melbourne where building programs had boosted housing stock. However, that gap has closed and the overall rental vacancy rate for Melbourne city and for regional Victoria are now the same at 2.9 per cent.
But there are substantial variations between the inner and outer suburbs of Melbourne; just as there are between the various regional areas across Victoria. In Geelong and the Barwon region, Decemberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rate of 4.7 per cent was up from 3.8 per cent in November; but still below the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high of 6.7 per cent in May. In Warrnambool and the Western District, the rate was 3.6 per cent , also down on the yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s high of 6.9 percent in August. And in AlburyWodonga the rate was just 2.1 per cent.
Regional house prices are up THE median price of a house in regional Victoria increased by 2.6 per cent in the final quarter of 2013, to a new record of $320,500. REIV CEO Enzo Raimondo said that this quarterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s increase was the highest since March quarter 2013. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This quarterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s increase is in line with a strong increase in the Melbourne market,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It shows that Victorian buyers have been responding to the record low interest rates, driving ongoing increases in house prices. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Geelong, Ballarat, and Bendigo remain at their peak prices after this quarterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bendigoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house price increased the most out of the three main centres with a 1.6 per cent increase to $320,000. However, price growth was mixed across the re-
gion with the highest price growth mainly contained in suburbs with median prices above $340,000 such as Kennington and Strathfieldsaye. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Geelongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house price increased by 1.4 per cent to $410,500 and remains the most expensive of the three centres. Demand in that region was strongest along the Bellarine Peninsula - in areas such as Portarlington, Drysdale, and Clifton Springs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ballarat recorded a 0.9 per cent increase to $292,500 with growth across most suburbs of the municipality. Price growth was strongest for suburbs with a median price above $300,000 such as Canadian, Alfredton, and Brown Hill.â&#x20AC;? Growth in regional Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s house prices has been more evenly distributed this quarter with price growth recorded in Ararat, Wangaratta, Golden Plains, and Wellington.
THE TIME IS NOW R O F
Grant boost for new homes THE $5000 New Home Grant was introduced in 2012, when the NSW housing sector was close to an all-time low. In distinction to our First Home Owner Grant, the sole purpose of the New Home Grant is to boost housing supply and, by doing so, put downward pressure on prices and rents. The availability of a new home incentive to foreign purchasers is nothing new. NSW Laborâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s equivalent of the New Home Grant, the Home Builder Bonus, introduced in 2010, was similarly available to foreign purchasers. Similar programs exist across the other states. Contrary to media reports released last week, the First Home Owner Grant is available only to Australian residents and is worth $15,000, not $5000. Total support for first home buyers is up to about $35,000. The positive turnaround residents are seeing in the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s critical housing sector suggests the NSW Governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policies of targeting incentives towards new housing and expediting the release of new housing lots are working. In dollar terms, support for first home buyers in the first half of the current financial year was more than double the support provided via the New Home Grant. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are conscious of the pressure on first home buyers that foreign investors could be applying, and accordingly we are constantly looking at all options to ensure that our first home buyers are given every support to own their own home,â&#x20AC;? NSW Treasurer Mike Baird said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Any policy action we take must not jeopardise the recovery in the housing sector that is currently underway.â&#x20AC;?

With 157 teams sourced primarily from Victoria - from Mildura to Traralgon and some NSW teams - the threeday event was jam-packed with action. “It was quite a diverse range of associations - very small associations like Mount Beauty to larger ones like Bendigo,” Wodonga Junior Basketball Association representative Trevor White said. “The tournament season starts in October and runs through to February in the lead-up to the championships which are held in Bendigo. “For the older age groups this is one of the last tournaments before championships. They look at the teams they will be playing and what they need to do to get the best result.” White said despite the home crowd advantage, the Wodonga side had some work to do in preparation for the championships, with Mildura proving to be a

“The Wodonga Association won the under 18 boys, we had a couple of others placed in second in a couple of other divisions but Wodonga didn’t sweep the floor by any means. We have a bit of work to do to catch up with the other guys. “Some of the offensive skills need work, particularly the 16 boys played quite defensive and played well, but when they had opportunities didn’t make them count. We’re getting the ball down there but just not getting it in the hoop. “The girls were stronger. Some of them didn’t get to the grand final game and missed out on percentage.” The next tournament event is in Benalla in next two weeks, as is the under 16 and 18 championships, with the under 12 and 14 age group championships coming up in April. “I’d like to thank the sponsors - we had a major sponsor in La Trobe University,” White said. “This is the second year they’ve sponsored the event and we very much appreciate it. We also had support from the Wodonga Council for the second year, so we would really like to acknowledge them as two of the bigger sponsors.”

Football is thriving at the grassroots level and by showcasing elite players in our city is only going to further support the growth of football in the region.” Dom Newnham is arguably Albury’s most passionate Melbourne Heart fan and convenor of Albury’s Melbourne Heart Supporter Group was an excited man as his team took to the pitch. “We always have to travel to Melbourne to watch games. I just can’t believe they’re playing here. It’s a dream,” he said before the game.

Jon Sharp vs Mildura Heat players.
MELBOURNE Heart continued its late season revival with a thrilling 2-1 victory over the Perth Glory in the A-League Football match at Lavington Oval at the weekend. More than 6000 fans braved the heat to watch their heroes extend their unbeaten run to four since Christmas. With the thermometer rising to 40 degrees the game was put back by two hours, starting at 5pm, to protect the players. It was the hottest game in ALeague history, with two drinks breaks also slotted in to help stave off the effects of the heat. The Heart did not disappoint their fans either, taking the lead in the 51st minute through a Patrick Kisnorbo’s header from a corner. But local die-hard Heart fans were back on the edge of their seats when Steven McGarry equalised, after capitalising on a dangerous set piece for Glory in the 73rd minute to lock things up. But then the man that fans know affectionately as “Super Dave” Dave Williams secured the match-winner late in the contest to give the Heart the valuable three points. It was the second week in a row that “Super Dave” had proven the match-winner after he steered his side to victory against Sydney FC in the previous week. Albury City mayor Kevin Mack welcomed the high-level match to the city. “Sport is such an integral part of our community, and to host an
