CATS’ BATTLE TO STAY ‘RELEVANT’ IN FINALS

Labor snubs Lyons By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN THE state opposition snubbed Mayor Darryn Lyons at a major election announcement in Geelong this week. Cr Lyons was available to attend but confirmed the opposition failed to invite him. Opposition leader Daniel Andrews launched a pitch for votes when he announced $70 million for Simonds Stadium’s stage-four upgrade and $30 million for the first stage of a Geelong Performing Arts Centre redevelopment. “It was disappointing, not only as mayor but also as chair of (regional councils alliance body) G21,� said Cr Lyons, a Liberal party member. “I don’t know why I wasn’t invited. “I’ve championed those projects. I’m all about getting the most funding I can for Geelong. “As far as I am concerned, politics doesn’t come into it.� The Independent understands Cr Lyons expressed his disappointment to Cats chief

Model teen goes global THE CATWALKS of Milan are a long way from the schoolyards of Geelong. But captivating teenager Elodie Russell is taking the distance in her stride with a blossoming career as an international model. The 16-year-old reveals her hopes, dreams and experiences so far in the new edition of Geelong Coast magazine (GC). She speaks about working for months in Milan, London and Tokyo and the impact on her life back home in Geelong. “I definitely miss my family and friends. It gets hard to stay in contact with them if you’re trying to find your way around a new country,� Elodie confides to GC. She is just one of the local faces featured in the latest edition of GC, the region’s premier glossy lifestyle magazine. GC is available at all good local newsagents. PICTURE: REG RYAN

Brian Cook and others but was told Labor controlled the invitations. Labor’s local election team was prominent at the announcement, including South Barwon candidate and Geelong councillor Andy Richards, who has previously locked horns with the mayor. A Labor spokesperson said the $100 million package for the stadium and GPAC would create jobs for the region. “The mayor has plenty of opportunities to meet with Mr Andrews, as he’s in Geelong on a regular basis.� The stadium project will include replacement of its Brownlow and Jennings stands, increasing capacity to 36,000. Sports Minister Damien Drum said he was surprised Labor would fund the entire stadium upgrade without seeking a federal contribution. He labeled the announcement “typical Labor waste�, warning $70 million would be “ripped out of community sport�.

Double Take GEELONG filmmaker Kristy Fuller was less than impressed when she couldn’t find her purse anywhere. She turned the house upside down, called the last place where she had it and convinced herself it was lost. She spent all morning cancelling and reordering her licence, Medicare cards, personal bank cards, business bank cards, credit cards, zoo membership... The she returned home to put the laundry on and, well, guess what she found in the washing machine. Her terse comments identified the suspect of the intended money laundering operation. “Ethan, my darling boy, you are a little...” CATS coach Chris Scott did a double take of his own at his media conference this week.

Email: editorial@geelongindependent.com.au

Asked about North Melbourne talisman Brent Harvey, who sat out the team’s elimination final against Essendon with suspension for lashing out at a tagger, Scott started on the standard response. “We’re not going in with a plan to antagonise Boomer Harvey,” he began. But pressed as to whether it might be worth a try, Scott recanted, to the amusement of the media pack. “Actually, yes, now that you mention it. Everything is worth a try.” Boomer, you have been warned. SCOTT was also pressed about the extra issues involved in competing against twin brother Brad, coach of the Kangaroos, and how the family coped. “I think my mother has usually supported the underdog,”

Scott smiled. “The real issue for her this week is to work out who the underdog is.” Which also begs the question of whether Cats can be (under)dogs. The fiery front cover of the latest Geelong Coast magazine (GC) certainly raised some temperatures over the past week. The flaming background set the scene but the rippling torso of handsome Avalon firefighter Luke Wood really turned up the heat among local ladies. Kim Shields threw fuel on the fire with a post under a Facebook image of Luke’s cover. “What is that smell?” she wondered. “Oh wait, it’s the single women of Geelong setting their houses on fire.”

Councils’ social media turns up pier pressure By NOEL MURPHY THE REGION’S councils have launched a Yarra Street Pier social media campaign after the state opposition turned its back on their top-priority project. Targetting Premier Denis Napthine and Greens leader Greg Barber, the campaign of councils alliance body G21 also followed Costa Property Group promoting its ageing Cunningham Pier as an alternative berth for cruise ships. G21 chief Elaine Carbines described the opposition’s snubbing of the Yarra Street Pier proposal in favour of further Simonds Stadium upgrades as “disappointing”. “I think the opposition has ruled out supporting the Yarra Street Pier for this election, which is disappointing but that’s their choice,” she said.

“We’re now focusing on local MPs pursuing funding for a business case for the pier. We hope they see the merit - all the five councils do and support the redevelopment of the pier and its benefits.” G21, comprising Geelong, Surf Coast, Golden Plains, Queenscliff and Colac-Otway councils, expects a Yarra Street Pier for cruise ships to generate $61 million in business locally and $80 million statewide over 10 years, creating 522 jobs and 218 during construction. Labor this week overlooked the pier proposal to instead committ $70 million to the stadium and $30 million to redevelop Geelong Performing Arts Centre, G21’s equal top priority. G21’s campaign focussed on Geelong’s potential to capitalise on a burgeoning cruise ship industry, the fastest-growing tourism sector in the world.

Ms Carbines said the campaign was already “creating quite a bit of attention”. The opposition thought it was on a “vote-winner” with Simonds Stadium, she said.. “But we’re yet to see whether it is or not. It’s an important piece infrastructure to finish off and to... try for nine games a season where at moment it’s only getting seven. “That’s the gamble the opposition has taken.” Ms Carbines hoped State Government would support the pier project. Assessments had shown the project would be “more cost-efficient” than upgrading “the old Cunningham Pier”, she said. Any consideration of using Cunningham Pier would also have to factor in the Costa group’s sale price, previously $20 million.

Nelis arrested POLICE have arrested a man wanted for questioning over the suspicious disappearance of Leopold man Paul Kingsbury. Investigators arrested John Nelis at an address in Fairbairn Dve, Corio, after a three-week manhunt in Geelong’s northern suburbs.

Vandalism ’hotspot’ GEELONG is in a “hotspot” for vandalism of cars, according to new RACV figures. The motoring body said smashed windows, “keying” of panels and denting had left the city and south-west Victoria with Victoria’s biggest insurance claims bill for damage to cars.

Panel revealed CITY Hall has revealed a futuristic prototype panel for the dome of Geelong’s new library and heritage centre. The panel, manufactured at North Geelong’s Kane Constructions, is one of 332 that will make up the skin of the dome, with installation scheduled to begin early in 2015.

Springs sod THE FIRST sod of a $51 million retirement village at Clifton Springs has been turned to signal the start of construction. Bellarine Springs will include 200 homes for over 55s and a community centre across nine hectares, creating 50 construction jobs.

Bright careers A LOCAL apprentice and a trainee have been acknwowledged as among the best in Australia, according to their employer. Gforce Employment Solutions said Belmont carpentry apprentice Alexander Innes and Highton education trainee Grace Brennan were among 19 winners from a field of 30,000 at a national awards program in Canberra this week.

Netball boost A NETBALL pavilion worth more than $1 million will cater to growing demand at Leopold, ward councillor Rod Macdonald has announced. He welcomed a contribution of $100,000 from the Napthine Government this week to complete the required funding for the project, which would deliver a “modern facility” for the increasing number of netballers in the town.

Hornets coming THE RAAF’s “most powerful warplane” will feature at Avalon’s next airshow, organisers have announced. They said the F/A-18F Super Hornet would be part of the “largest RAAF contingent to ever participate” in the event, scheduled for Avalon Airport form 24 February to 1 March.

A VAST cast of singing and dancing puppets is set to put on a bright and colourful show as Geelong Youth Choir expands its range. The puppets will bring a series of stories to life with a menagerie of eye-catching puppets including diva cats, singing flowers and vegetables and an animal choir. Youth choir director Denise Hollingworth promised lots of toetapping tunes and upbeat music and fun for children of all ages, especially three-to-nine-year-olds. “The idea for the puppet show came about when we were planning a special concert for the younger preschool children in our Let’s Make Music program,” Denise explained. “We soon discovered the joy of puppeteering and wanted to explore it further. “The senior choir worked on the planning, props, scripting, puppet choreography, vocals and staging. “It’s been a valuable and enjoyable experience all round. It seems you’re never too old to enjoy the magic of puppets. “The choristers have had a blast this term and it’s led to lots of improvisation and creativity, something we really value in music and the arts. “Our two younger choirs will also join in with parts of the show.” Geelong Youth Choir, a notfor-profit community group, has been offering music programs in Geelong for more than 25 years. The choir will perform Puppet Song at St Luke’s Church hall, corner Barrabool and Scenic Rds, Highton, from 3pm Saturday. Entry is by gold coin donation. More information is available by phoning 0431 981 652.

Turnbull pulls plug on our TV By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN FEDERAL Government will pull the plug on Geelong's community television station next year. Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull announced this week that community television licences for the “sixth channel” spectrum would cease at the end of 2015. The spectrum would be sold, forcing Channel 31 off the air. Mr Turnbull told community

stations to move to the internet. The Tribe Television and Video producer Adam Tribe said the decision removed a valuable training ground for the industry. “It is a great training and a breeding ground for future production expertise. It has often been a stepping stone for both programs and people who have moved to the networks. “It gives an opportunity for programs that might otherwise

not see the light of day. It is an extremely competitive industry with a lot of people vying to get into it and opportunities are scarce." Mr Tribe, who ran GOTV in Geelong online for several years before selling it due to lack of business support, said suggesting community television simply moves to the internet was too simplistic. “Television production as opposed to online video is signifi-

cantly different. To throw a line out there that one can replace the other is incorrect and misleading. “They're very different beasts. You won’t have the same content, duration of content or striving for quality of content. “You have got a real audience now but on the internet you will lose your audience.” News Geelong producer Noel Fanning said Mr Turnbull demonstrated limited understanding

of the communications industry. “Local football and local news won’t get a look in anymore,” Mr Fanning said. “Community television is self-sufficient. It’s not costing the government anything but (closing it) will cost lot of jobs. Mr Fanning said local audiences were "still not ready" for online TV. Media student Zoe Hollingsworth described the decision as

a “terrible idea”. “It’s strange how the Government just decided this and expected everyone to go along with it. “Media students have only very few avenues as there is and Channel 31 is one. It’s crucial as a media student. "This is a real setback.” Channel 31 broadcasts 90 first-run locally produced programs weekly to a cumulative monthly audience of around 1.4 million viewers.

Motor City festival rocks on with major events help Federal changes By NOEL MURPHY ‘gag’ law service ROCK fans rejoice, Motor City Music Festival will return to Geelong Showgrounds next Labor Day weekend with 40 thumping, grooving, roaring acts. Director Hugo T Armstrong said the festival had secured major events funding from City Hall after a successful baptism earlier this year. The inaugural event featured leading Australian blues and rock acts alongside some of the country's top tribute bands. “We're pumped to be able to reprise what we delivered at the inaugural Motor City Music Festival,” Armstrong told the Independent. “In all my years running festivals I’ve received lots of compliments and been very privileged but I’ve never been so overwhelmed as I was at Motor City. “People were telling me all weekend, ‘This is exactly what Geelong needs, this is great’ - that was the number-one comment all weekend. There were so many proud Geelong people.” Armstrong said City Hall’s major events unit had underpinned the

ROCKING ON: Tourism Greater Geelong and the Bellarine's Roger Grant, Cr Ron Nelson and Hugo Armstrong enjoy the atmosphere at the inaugural Motor City Music Festival. Picture: Jessica Shepherd festival with support for the next two years. Council's major events portfolio holder, Ron Nelson, said Geelong deserved an affordable music festival. “I went to the first festival and

Hugo certainly knows how to run a music festival,” Cr Nelson sasid. “He had a fantastic variety of bands indoors and outdoors and, now he has a product to sell, I’m sure we’ll get a lot more people.”

Armstrong said next year's event would include new tribute bands and blues acts alongside some big names in country and rock music. Motor City would release its first performer list next month, he said.

NEW federal funding arrangements have "gagged" Barwon Community Legal Service, according to Member for Corio Richard Marles. Mr Marles told parliament this week the “unfair and illogical” arrangements put greater pressure on limited resources. “By prohibiting the use of federal funding for all forms of advocacy, the government is effectively attempting to gag our legal services,” he said. “At the same time, since the Liberals have come to government the Barwon Community Legal Service has received large numbers of requests to provide submissions to a broad range of inquiries. “On the one hand, the Abbott Government is seeking the expert advice of our community legal centres but on the other it does not want to listen to them. “It makes no sense. I sincerely hope that the Abbott Government reconsiders this unfair and illogical funding arrangement.” Mr Marles said services such as the legal service were best placed to draw on their specialist expertise and experience to advocate for law reforms. Barwon Community Legal Service executive officer Nick Hudson said the new arrangements would increase stress on the delivery of frontline services and result in the inefficient use of resources.

HE MIGHT have undertaken 3000 operations on sick children in Third World countries, teaching doctors along the way, but Barwon Health doesn’t want him operating on its patients. Professor Paddy Dewan has travelled overseas 100 times with the humanitarian medical body he started, Kind Cuts for Kids. He’s worked in Gaza, Bangladesh, Kosovo, Albania, Vietnam, Mauritius, Sri Lanka, Bosnia, Thailand, India and Papua New Guinea. But he was sacked from working with Geelong’s peak public health body. A former chairman of Victoria’s College of Surgeons, Prof Dewan set up Kind Cuts for Kids after operating on victims of a 1989 Russian train disaster that killed 800 people. “It was in Chelyabinsk. Three-hundred more people were injured, 150 of them sent to each of two hospitals. I was there 10 days,” he told the Independent. “That resulted in me returning to Australia and contacting people about how I might be involved in teaching in under-privileged countries. In 1993 I went to Bangladesh and New Guinea because I was selected by College of Surgeons after I put my hand up to teach.” Prof Dewan makes about four trips a year, each for around two weeks. He receives no pay and loses money while working away from Australia. He delivers a wide range of procedures on his travels, according to both his training, other available medical skills and access to resources. “I’ve had training in orthopaedic plastic surgery and if no one is likely

some sub-speciality. I’ve done anorectal anomalies where kids are born without a bottom or normal nerves to the lower part of the bowel. “There’s a lot of re-do surgery because the training’s not been in place.

“It’s about empowering people in developing countries to do work for themselves. Like teaching a man to fish rather than giving him fish but we’re starting from a very low base where you’ve got to teach them to make hooks from bits of wire.” “Kind Cuts for Kids was set up to facilitate other people as a solution in developing countries while developing skills at home.” The non-government, not-forprofit body operates without an office or staff, relying on volunteers and the goodwill of surgeons around the world. Prof Dewan told the Independent last month that he lost his job after complaining about another surgeon then alleging the reviewer handling his complaint had a conflict of interest. The reviewer was the person who dismissed Prof Dewan after 16 years with Barwon Health, he said. Prof Dewan called for a royal commission into the national health regulator and hospital administration decisions adversely affecting health professionals. Barwon Health dismissed his claims, saying Prof Dewan was one of three surgeons it no longer required after deciding to use Royal Children’s Hospital for paediatric surgeries. Geelong mother Tricia Connoley praised Prof Dewan’s work, saying he had cared for her daughter for 20 years, regularly going beyond expectations or professional duties. “He’s a humanitarian who’s been treated inhumanely. It’s very unfair,” she told the Independent.

THE LATE teenage years are busy enough with school, part-time jobs, licences and social activities without adding another commitment. But Highton Girl Guides member Sarah Grace did just that by taking on the challenge of the Queen’s Guide Award. The Sacred Heart College student’s dedication and hard work paid off with a high tea ceremony to celebrate her achievement. Highton guides area manager Sue

Blight said taking on the Queen’s Guide Award was a significant commitment that took between two and four years to complete. “The award is the peak achievement for youth members of Guides Australia, providing an opportunity for personal development and greater self-awareness. “It’s recognised nationally and internationally and is part of the aim of Girl Guides to nurture and mould the community leaders of the future. “Only a handful are presented each

Mayor Darryn Lyons said the money committed to the revitalisation project so far would upgrade a “critical” city precinct around Malop, Lt Malop, James and Short Sts and Shorts Pl. Improvements would include smoother links between key precincts, beautification works and part of a proposed “green spine” in the city centre, Cr Lyons said. “This part of central Geelong has the potential to mirror the laneway atmosphere of Melbourne but without the traffic and congestion hassles.” State government also announced Drysdale and Clifton Springs would get a brand new sports precinct if it was re-elected. A $7 million redevelopment would add new pavilion and sports fields to cater for the growing Bellarine population. Mr Napthine also handed Belmont High School $6.3 million for a major upgrade. The project would deliver improvements to the school’s main classroom wing, domestic arts wing, library and gymnasium.

A $7.5 MAKEOVER in central Geelong could create almost 90 jobs after the latest pre-election commitment to the city. The Napthine Government announced on Wednesday $3 million to complete funding for City Hall’s Central Geelong Revitalisation Project. In more cash splashes, Premier Dennis Napthine also announced funding for Drysdale-Clifton Springs sport precinct and upgrades to Belmont High School. “I am delighted to see the ongoing development of the City of Greater Geelong, Victoria’s biggest regional city,” Mr Napthine said. The revitalisation project would have “numerous social, economic and environmental benefits” for Geelong, he said. “It will enhance liveability, create new opportunities for property and business investments, expand demand and supply of goods and services and attract visitors and new residents.” Mr Napthine said the project had “potential” to create 45 direct jobs and 40 indirectly “due to enhanced business opportunities”.

WORK on a controversial $1 million performance space in an Ocean Grove public park could start in days after moves to stop it were “resoundingly” rejected. Ocean Grove Park Association president Colin Atkins said a contract had already been let for the construction of the project. The Independent has reported over the last few months that battlelines were drawn over the controversial proposal. A group of park association members pushed for a special general meeting to restrict the

committee to financial decisions under $20,000, which would have stopped the proposal. But the motion was defeated 220 votes to 90. The project will be funded with $500,000 from State Government, $200,000 from City of Greater Geelong, $153,000 from the park association and $150,000 from Ocean Grove Connecting Communities. Mr Atkins said Magellan Projects was awarded the $874,500 contract. “The price is within budget with adequate funds available for the supervision of the project and for (extra) fittings and fit-out.

“Magellan Projects is an experienced building contractor based in Geelong utilising local trades and suppliers. It has successfully completed projects in metropolitan and regional Victoria across various market sectors including commercial, retail, education and community.” The project was earmarked for completion in late February 2015. Mr Atkins said the association was seeking expressions of interest to join a performance space management committee. The committee would draft an operations manual and seek bookings, he said.

Also, the service is friendly and efficient. Botanic Gardens Lover, Geelong West BOUQUETS to Geelong West’s Damian and Travis for assisting me when my car broke down in pouring rain on Pakington St. Their kindness and generosity was unexpected and highly appreciated. They are upstanding members of our community. Grateful Grandmother, Newtown

BUCKETS to John Fairnie (Letters, 5 September). So what if the Wathaurong dancers wore red “nappies�. Obviously nowadays they can’t dance naked like their “ancestors�. I bet you don’t wear a kilt without underwear like your own ancestors may have. And if you do, please don’t dance anywhere I’m present. Give Them A Break, Geelong West BOUQUETS to Blitz Fitness Studio and its fantastic personal trainers for their help, guidance and support on my journey to be fitter and healthier.

BOUQUETS to Nola, who bucketed “selfish peopleâ€? (Buckets & Bouquets, 5 September). As a cafĂŠ owner, I am annoyed at people sitting at my tables with food and drink from other cafes. They take up room and leave a mess. Anyone who disagrees should put themselves in our shoes. June, South Geelong

BUCKETS to an obese person who used a disabled parking space without a permit. Sorry, your condition does not entitle you to park wherever you like. Choosing a park further from the shop might help, too. Where are the parking inspectors when they are needed? Angry Shopper, Highton

Letters Mulder’s wobbly road STATE Roads Minister Terry Mulder has announced a two-year delay in the Geelong-Winchelsea highway duplication despite promising less than six months ago it would be finished by Christmas. Funny, that, six months of bad weather causing a two-year delay. That logic only makes sense to a politician trying desperately not to explain why the duplication is not a priority. He blamed the contractors’ inability to build during winter. Of course, a contractor who could build in Victoria’s mild winters could have been found they manage it in Northern Europe, North America, Japan and Korea, all of which have real winters. Everything governments do now is about politics and getting 51 per cent of the vote. It does not matter how many wobbly promises are made as long as they get lots of pictures in the news. If State Government really wanted to get things done it would not spend hundreds of millions of dollars telling us what it has started but spend the same money on actually finishing something. But that is of course a naive view of modern politics and politicians who care more about focus groups and newspaper polls than achievements Russell Greenwood Colac

Fixing Labor’s TAFE bungle OPPOSITION MPs and candidates who have signed the TAFE pledge fail to concede that it was the former Brumby Labor government that bungled its attempts to reform the TAFE industry in 2008 by opening the market up to competition from the private sector without extra support. Unlike Labor, the Coalition Government is working closely with TAFEs, investing a $200 million structural adjustment fund to help them innovate and adapt to the market-driven training system introduced by Labor. The opposition continues to talk down and undermine vocational education in Geelong. The coalition remains committed to delivering training that leads to long-term, meaningful jobs in the region. Funding for Gordon Institute of TAFE has increased nine per cent since 2010 to $59 million. Enrolments have grown eight per cent over the same period. The Napthine Government is investing a record $1.2 billion each year in Victoria’s training system, up almost 50 per cent on Labor’s last budget in 2010.

Parking my priority for workers in Geelong IT WAS great to join the Premier Denis Napthine at the official opening of the Energy Australia Call Centre in Moorabool St recently. Here we will eventually have an additional 300 jobs in our CBD, creating more activity with employees no doubt shopping, dining and socialising in the heart of town. The call centre, together with the NDIA and Workcover coming to Geelong, means more jobs for our region, which is fantastic news but we do need to address the issue of parking to accommodate this influx of people to our city centre. If elected I will explore options to increase parking in the CBD and for commuters. Tiered parking at Geelong Railway Station’s car park on Latrobe Tce is worth consideration. This over-crowded car park is a favourite for train travellers, Gordon students and city workers. I believe a tiered car park might help address the shortage of city parking and potentially link with the train station, providing easier access. bor was last in office. A half yearly training market report 2014 shows positive results for job creation, with the coalition funding training programs in areas of skills shortage that enhance employment opportunities for all age groups. Indeed, 72 per cent of Victorian students are now training in areas of value to the economy and employment growth. Andrew Katos MP Member for South Barwon

High ground, low circulation I SEE the so-called Geelong Advertiser’s circulation is down another 9.2 per cent (Geelong Independent, 5 September). Let that be a lesson to us all: if you seize the moral high ground there’s only one direction left to go. I’m pretty sure Liz Hayes is editing it via Skype. R Graham Belmont

Action on ice THE LAW Reform, Drugs and Crime Prevention Joint Parliamentary Committee has tabled its inquiry

Email: editorial@geelongindependent.com.au PO Box 407, Geelong, 3220 Fax: 5249 6799

nouncements for more drug-testing kits and sniffer dogs for police. Funding of $2 million for community grants to respond to the impact of ice has been announced, along with $2.7 million for an education advertising campaign on the dangers of use and the harm associated with its use. The campaign asks a simple question: What are you doing on ice? Simon Ramsay MP Member for Western Victoria

A grave mistake POLICY: Central Geelong needs a solution to its car-parking pressure, according to a state election candidate. Commuters could also have another option if parking capacity was increased at South Geelong Railway Station. I will also look into improving bike paths around our city to give people greater confidence to ride to work. I’d like to see more people choose this option if we can make cycling safer in the future. Paula Kontelj Liberal candidate for Geelong report into the supply and use of methamphetamine, particularly ice. The committee conducted more than 113 public hearings around Victoria, including in Geelong. The committee heard evidence from 220 witnesses and received 78 submissions. The inquiry also sought advice on the supply and manufacture of methamphetamine and the links to trafficking by organised crime and outlaw bikie clubs. Online trafficking was also investigated. The 54 recommendations are in direct response to evidence and statistical data showing a trending escalation of ice use and a lack of resources in regional Victoria to deal appropriately with the harm it causes. Recommendations that respond to supply, prevention, harm reduction and treatment are peppered through the report. This drug affects people from all forms of life but is not a pandemic, an epidemic or a crisis. In reality it affects less than two per cent of Australia’s population. Nevertheless, it is an increasing social and health problem. It is pleasing to see that the Napthine Government has responded quickly to the report with an-

THE ABBOTT Government is managing to frighten the so-called horses – older voters – with the whisper retirees might be required to take out loans against their homes to fund their retirement in future. This would leave them little capacity to bequeath anything to their families and little or nothing to fund a bed in a nursing home should they require it. About 2.3 million Australians, 10 per cent of the population, are now age pensioners. This number is set to increase dramatically over the next 20 years. It does not take much common sense to appreciate that such a proposal will consign any party which pursues it to the political grave. Michael J Gamble Belmont

Future is electric THERE is undoubtedly an imbalance between Australia and China. We import a lot more from China than they get from us. Food and cotton we have in plenty. We also have an interesting range of plants, some of which thrive in the desert for a useful range of medical purposes, like eucalyptus, and tannins for leather. The car industry, which is so important to Australia, is in a state of collapse in China, as it is in America. Ford and General Motors are stampeding back home. The internal combustion engine is marching to extinction. As the internal combustion engine faces extinction, where is India? Tata Motors owes more to stupidity than good judgement. The compressed air car is floundering. The French have led in electrics, such as tidal power. See the film Who Killed the Electric Car? J P McLarty Ocean Grove

Mercury rising in Queen show By Emily Iannello BEELZEBUB, Galileo, Scaramouche, fandangos - Queen fans can get out their best harmonies and air guitars for a top-line tribute band headed Geelong’s way. Queen: It’s A Kinda Magic will relive the legendary British rock band’s halcyon days of hits such as We Will Rock You, Bohemian Rhapsody and We Are the Champions. The tribute show will play Geelong Performing Arts Centre a little over a month after the actual Queen tour Australia with Adam Lambert in place of frontman Freddie Mercury, who died in 1991. English-Canadian performer Giles Taylor has taken on the demanding Mercury role in the tribute show. Taylor has been travelling the world the past 13 years, performing with artists such as Blur’s Damon Albarn, Gabrielle, Rick Wakeman and The Moody Blues. Taylor told the Independent the Queen gig was his toughest so far. “This is the biggest challenge ever,� he said. “It’s physically and vocally exhausting. It’s such an incredible task, a wonderful challenge.� Taylor said “true� Queen fans would appreciate the attention to detail in the tribute show. His bandmates are Richie Baker as Brian May on guitar, James Childs as John Deacon on bass and Kyle Thompson as Roger Taylor on drums. The quartet has been touring around Australia and overseas with the show, drawing some warm reviews. “There are so many good songs,� Taylor said.

MERCURY RISING: Giles Taylor as legendary Queen frontman Freddie Mercury. “We only have two hours to perform and we play 23 songs but I could easily think of another 23 I’d love to play.� Taylor nominated Queen’s epic hit Bohemian Rhapsody as his favourite song to perform. “Musically, it’s quite complex and it’s right at the end of the show. It’s our big finale, so everything has to be done on the ball. “It’s all done live, so we’re really focused at the end of the show.� Taylor said the audience could expect to see Queen “as they would have been in their own day�. “I know that two members of Queen are out touring now but

Friday, 12 September, 2014 Page 19

it’s a very foreign route. We try to recapture Queen as they were in the ’80s.� The show had introduced a new generation of fans to the Queen phenomenon, Taylor said. “When we set out to do the show we thought the audience would mainly be older Queen fans but we’re also seeing a younger crowd. “People in their teens are coming. It’s incredible that people who weren’t even alive when Queen was performing want to come and see us.� Taylor believed that Queen’s enduring popularity was easy to explain. “They’re one of the few bands that produced a great number of classic rock tunes,� he said. “We’re talking late ’70s rock when Queen was up there with the biggest names, if not the biggest name. “They were iconic and had a long career and I think that creates for a long shelf-life after that.� Taylor said the show attracted the attention of Mercury’s former personal assistant, Peter Freestone, who now toured with the band when his schedule allowed. Freestone had praised the tribute show as the closest he had seen to the real thing. The Queen concert would be Taylor’s second time in Geelong as a performer. “I was there a couple of years ago for a completely different show but I was playing the piano. “It’s nice to come back and do it from the front of the stage this time.� Queen: It’s A Kinda Magic plays GPAC on 12 October.

Trio’s in harmony with folk heroes

Sat 6th Dec

A TRIO of local performers is harmonising its way around the Bellarine Peninsula with the songs of a famous folk group from the 1960s. Marion Rose, Stewart Firth and Jon Mamonski say family and friends encouraged them to go public after noting “how close� they sounded to the original Peter, Paul and Mary. The three describe themselves as “huge fans� of the American group, which had a series of hits

with songs like The Times They are a Changing, Blowing in the Wind, If I Had a Hammer and Puff the Magic Dragon. Mamonski said the group’s 1964 concert album, which sold seven million copies worldwide, inspired local performances of Peter, Paul and Marion. The trio had mimicked the harmonies of its ‘60s namesake at events on the peninsula including Ocean Grove’s Carols at the Park, the annual lighting of Point

Lonsdale’s Christmas Tree and Queenscliff Lighthouse Theatre shows, he said. Peter, Paul and Marion’s next show would relive their heroes’ “glory days� in a two-hour concert at Queenscliff Uniting Church. Tickets for the show, beginning 7.30pm on 19 September, were available at the door or from Queenscliff Information Centre, Mamonski said.

COOKING, dining and socialising - these are the fundamentals of human enjoyment, and Geelong West’s 400 degrees has them down pat. And they do it with a twist, a healthy twist. 400 degrees, at the north end of Pako, features a remarkable Stonegrill Restaurant that allows diners to be the “masterchef”. The stone is heated to a sizzling 400 degrees and patrons make their selections from prime offerings of beef, chicken, seafood and more - and do the cooking themself. “It’s great fun, absolutely,”

says owner-manager Paula Leone. “It’s very interactive. We find people come in as couples initially then a few weeks later they’re back with four people, then for birthdays with larger groups to share the concept. “We have a lot of regular customers because of the fact you can control the way you cook and because every mouthful is as delicious as the first.” The cuisine is healthy as all produce is trimmed of fat and no oils are added to the stone. Don’t fuss if you can’t cook, friendly staff at 400 Degrees are more than happy to assist.

Mouth-watering steaks such as eye fillet and black Angus fillet, black Angus and waygu rump, porterhouse are all on the menu. As well as great steaks they also offer seafood, chicken breast, and grilled Haloumi vegetarian grill. In addition, 400 degrees menu includes Thai beef curry, a selection of pasta dishes, chicken salad, salt and pepper calamari, and choices for the kids. So get set to experience a taste beyond anything you’ve had before and get set to have some fun. 400 degrees, 17 Pakington St, Geelong West, phone 5229 9992.

Foster Carers

light up lives. Make leap to foster caring

GEELONG couple Beth and Adam, who have four young children of their own, care for three foster children. They have cared for 13 children over the past four years. Beth and Adam urge more people to take the leap and become foster carers with MacKillop Family Services during national Foster Care Week from 14 to 20 September. “I wanted to provide kids with a stable home and with the security of knowing we’ll stick with them through their ups and downs,” Beth says. “They’re often dealing with difficult pasts and I feel we’re

giving them hope for a brighter future.” The couple has cared for children of different ages and from various backgrounds. Some have stayed with them for just a few nights, others have been with them a few years. “The biggest impact on our family has been uncovering the sad world many children are exposed to,” Beth says. “We all feel blessed to have the opportunity to love some gorgeous young people who have left us with lasting impressions and happy memories.” National Foster Care Week highlights the urgent need for

more foster carers in the community, with more than 40,000 children experiencing out-of-home care in 2013 across Australia. “Many people often comment that they’ve thought about becoming foster carers themselves but for one reason or another haven’t taken that leap,” Beth says. “This week is the perfect week to take the leap.” MacKillop provides all foster carers with ongoing support, training and regular breaks. More information about becoming a MacKillop foster carer is available by phoning 1300 791 677 or visiting mackillop.org.au/ fostercare.

This National Foster Care Week

Take the Leap! Become a foster carer

Glastonbury’s forster carers play a crucial role in the community.

Service seeking foster carers EACH year Foster Care Week celebrates and acknowledges the invaluable work of foster carers. The week is also a time to promote foster care in the community and raise awareness. Demand for foster carers in the Barwon region is greater than the number of foster carers recruited. Glastonbury Community Services is calling on Geelong locals who would be interested in becoming foster carers to provide short-term or long-term care for the many children and young

Many people think about becoming foster carers, so now that it’s National Foster Care Week there’s never been a beter time to find out if foster caring is for you.

people in need of a loving home. Children and young people who cannot be placed locally are sometimes forced to move outside the region, making it imperative more foster carers are recruited so they can stay near their schools, friends and sports teams. To celebrate Foster Care Week and the extraordinary work of the region’s foster carers, Glastonbury hosts an annual appreciation luncheon. The event acknowledges the carers’ commitment to caring and ensuring that local children

and young people have a safe and nurturing home. The luncheon also acknowledges foster carers as a crucial part of the Glastonbury care team. Glastonbury knows that carers’ dedication and commitment to children and young people is astounding and to be congratulated. Anyone interested in becoming a Glastonbury foster carer can obtain more information by phoning Sandy Meessen, team leader of Glastonbury‘s carer training and recruitment, on 5222 6911.

For any upcoming Feature Information call Karen Jenkins on 5249 6704 or email karen.jenkins@geelongindependent.com.au

Right now there are children in Geelong that need safe, loving and nurturing homes on a short and long-term basis. Take the leap and contact MacKillop today to help a child in need. Call us on 5278

Steve Johnson kicking goals for car owners at premises in North Geelong KEEPING a car in tip-top working order is not negotiable these days. It’s imperative for safety and economy that cars are kept running smoothly and properly, says North Geelong’s Steve Johnson. With a new recently-relocated workshop and service centre at 29 Rodney Rd, North Geelong, Steve is keen to help maintain customers’ vehicles and save them money in the meantime. With a legendary namesake playhing for the Geelong Cats, Steve’s also happy to plug the team at his Steve Johnson Automotive. So while Geelong’s in the AFL finals, Steve’s offering a genuine 15 per cent discount on all servicing and repairs for all Cats supporters who can produce anything with the team’s logo. It can be a bumper sticker, a key ring, a hat or a scarf - anything the customer can provide to show they’re a true Cats supporter. “I can’t understate the importance of regular servicing and checks,” Steve says. “It’s the best way to help stop unwanted and costly breakdowns.” As a parent, Steve stresses the need for younger drivers especially, and the parents of younger drivers, to ensure their cars are kept in good running order. “You really have to keep an eye on them, as most just don’t understand the need for basic safety maintenance,” he says. Car owners and Cats fans can phone Steve Johnson Automtive.

Calm conditions improve angling CALM conditions over the weekend enticed many anglers to chase large squid off Queenscliff. Fishing World Geelong’s Michael Moore cast a Gan Craft Kurosio Sunset jig in size 3 for a bag of eight squid to 1.5kg. Michael noted that aggressively working the jib yielded the best results. Other anglers fishing Queenscliff caught King George whiting to 45cm with pippies and tenderized squid on the grass beds to the left of the harbour. Anglers fishing soft plastics inside the harbour landed silver trevally to 40cm on the tide changes. Dylan Pace and Matt Alsop caught both trevally and Australian salmon with Z-Man plastics. Daniel Baden and I set out from St Leonards in search of squid on Saturday afternoon. We motored over to the mouth of Swan Bay where we quickly caught a bag of squid on white Shimano 14T jigs in size 2.5. I saw other anglers catching whiting just out from the boat ramp, although smaller than the fish at Queenscliff. Some huge gummy shark to 21kg were also taken off St Leonards recently on fresh squid. Portarlington Pier produced Australian salmon for anglers casting 25g metal slugs. Squid were caught at night around the pier lights. Calm nights allowed anglers to wade the shallows off Clifton Springs and Portarlington for flathead, flounder and many other species. The flathead were quiet but flounder were plentiful. Geelong’s waterfront produced pinkie snapper to 50cm on Gulp turtleback worms. Western Beach moorings held the best-sized schools, with the key to success sounding around to locate the fish then drifting over the area with soft plastic lures bumping off the bottom. Bream were caught in the grammar school Lagoon on vibe lures fished under the moored boats. Conditions were excellent along the Surf Coast where Australian salmon reaching 2kg were taken while spinning the beaches. Anglers chasing bream in the small estuaries caught fish to 40cm on hardbody lures and Bass yabbies. Local lakes also fished well in the calm conditions. Anglers trolling deep at Lake Bullen Merri boated excellent-sized Chinook salmon to 2.2kg. Trolling at 15m to 20m was apparently more effective than fishing bait, especially with larger lures such as the Rapala F-9s. The Chinook were smaller next door at Lake Purrumbete, averaging 1kg but readably available for anglers fishing deep with pilchard fillets amid a liberal berley trail. Brown trout were also caught while trolling early morning or fishing mudeye suspended under a float. Moorabool Reservoir produced some trophysized redfin. Successful anglers had to work hard for their catches, some up to 45cm. Don Munro headed up to Lake Bostock to try his luck on the Chinook salmon last Friday afternoon. Don started casting brightly coloured Tassie Devils, catching a Chinook of 675g and another of 560g.

McConville back GEELONG cyclist Chloe McConville will return after months of illness to compete in this week’s inaugural Amy’s Otway Classic, organisers have announced. McConville was forced out of Australia’s development team in Europe earlier this year with lung and leg clots from deep vein thrombosis. She was off her bike for more than three months before resuming training. “After having so much time off I’m just really looking forward to being a part of it again, because that was something I struggled with.” McConville had Glasgow’s Commonwealth Games and a professional contract in her sights when her illness struck. “There was definitely some down days when I was almost ready to throw in the towel but the thing was to keep the bigger picture in sight.” The 26-year-old spent the past 14 weeks completing an intense training program.

Cats’ test of relevance

By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN

GEELONG’S battle to defy the odds and remain a finals relevant team continues tonight against North Melbourne. Losing to Hawthorn in last week’s qualifying final, relying on tried and tested performers, led to renewed questions about Geelong’s place in the AFL pantheon. Commentators argued another flag would allow Hawthorn to claim equalera status with Geelong, conveniently overlooking the Hawks’ lower win percentage and lower finishes, including one season out of the finals altogether. But Cats coach Chris Scott still has

the long-term firmly in mind while remaining upbeat about the team’s short-term prospects. No one seriously expects the Cats to win through to the grand final this year - even Geelong supporters are almost resigned to the inevitable. Add to that further injury setbacks, including ruckman Hamish McIntosh out with knee soreness, Steve Johnson still under a cloud and Allen Christensen struggling with a back injury, and the Cats could arguably have underdog status. Scott admitted his younger players needed to step up this week but saw “room for optimism”. “If we can turn around some of those performances and get a bit more

of an even contribution we’ll be in good shape. “We’ve come up with some tangible things we need to monitor from the coaches box.” Captain courageous Joel Selwood cited finals experience as a positive for the young brigade. “The younger kids got another finals experience, performing in front of a big crowd and we’ll be better for the experience,” he said. Scott agreed the experience would only help his newer charges. “Short-term it gives all of our players and our coaches the opportunity to build some momentum and play a bit better than we did on the weekend.

“And if we do and it’s good enough then we can roll that momentum and good form into the week after.” Scott said only fit Cats would face the Kangaroos. “We’ll take in a team that’s absolutely capable of getting the job done, not only this week but into the next couple of weeks as well. “I understand that when you’ve got a few injury concerns over individuals the perception can be that the team’s a bit wounded. “We won’t be taking in a team that’s wounded or flat or with any excuses this Friday night. We’ll be ready to go, enthusiastic and planning to play our best footy.”

Warriors face destiny when Saints come marching in By Josip Zilic NORTH Geelong Warriors’ destiny is in its own hands against fellow National Premier League promotion hopeful St Albans at Elcho Park tomorrow. St Albans is a tough unit to break down, posting some strong performances prior to last weekend’s 2-1 loss to Richmond. The Saints were up 1-0 with a man extra after Richmond had a player sent off. The intensity rose but St Albans lost a player and the momentum, copping two goals in the second half to dent its promotion charge. North Geelong notched up a crucial 2-1 win away to Moreland on Sunday. The home side was more composed early, stretching the Warriors’ midfield and putting the defence under pressure with numerous shots. Daniel Zilic pulled off an acWARRIOR: North Geelong’s Michael Anderson stays focussed under pressure on the weekend. Picture: IVAN DUGANDZIC robatic save to deny James Pa-

padimitriou in the 15th minute. After some mistakes adjusting to the sandy pitch, the Warriors began to settle. Robbie Zadworny made a break for a one-on-one with the keeper who saved well for a corner at the 33rd minute. Michael Anderson opened the scoring from the corner, rising to head across goal out of the reach of Nikola Kostadinovski The Zebras went close to equalising when Joel Nikolic tried to push the ball through a goal mouth scramble but was unable to trouble Zilic. Moreland earned it’s reward five minutes after the break when Daniel Sweeney drove a grubbing shot from the edge of the box, hitting a lumpy patch of sand in front of the six-yard line to go over a diving Zilic in goals. North Geelong responded in true style, combining well through the midfield. The Warriors thought they had the lead

again at the 70th minute when Zadworny was through on goal but the referee controversially ruled it out for a foul on Mile Medjedovic. Two minutes later North Geelong put the result to rest when Nathan Long went on a length-of-the-field run, linking with Reardo Luka and Anderson to meet the ball in the penalty area and bury into the goals. Moreland pressed hard to close out the match, with two efforts hitting the bar, but was unable to get the leveller. North Geelong coach Micky Colina deflected talk of promotion after the match. “We’ll talk after round 26. Football’s a crazy game and anything’s possible,” he said. Moreland coach Danny Gnjidic was annoyed at his team’s inability to put away chances. “That sums up our season: we can play well but we’re just not clinical in front of the goals,” Gnjidic said.
