Albury Wodonga’s largest circulating newspaper

They’re off and racing ... It was the event to kick off spring racing at Wodonga, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. From the latest fashions, to the lucky punters, and even some local winning horses, it was the perfect start to an exciting racing season on the Border.

Shifting down By ERIN SOMERVILLE AFTER 43 years of service, local tool maker Terry Meredith will soon be heading to work at Albury’s DSI Holdings factory for the final time. As the manufacturing company that spcialises in making gearboxes closes its doors for good on 31 October, around 135 local workers will be left to find new jobs. For many, the closure of DSI Holdings which opened its Lavington doors in 1971 will mark another sad day in Albury’s economic and manufacturing history. “There were about 200 workers when I first started, I have been here when we had up to 1200 workers and it operated 24/7, through to what it is now,” Terry Meredith said. “We just can’t compete with the overseas market.” While employees told the Albury Wodonga News Weekly they were trying to remain optimistic in a difficult situation, many employees must now face the reality of trying to find work in a job-hunting environment that has changed drastically since they were first hired by DSI many years ago. Many workers have never undertaken a formal job interview or created a resume. “It’s a new challenge,” said machine setter Jeff Whyte, who has been with Albury’s DSI Holdings factory for 21 years. “After 21 years we have to do something different, which is probably a good thing. “We’re having to learn now to find jobs online - long gone are the days of door-knocking asking for work.” Mr Whyte said he had recently experienced an intimidating two-month long application process at a larger Border corporation. “It can be very daunting if you have

Quality inspector Steve Johnson, machine operator Carol Peake, and machine setter Jeff Whyte will say goodbye to their jobs at DSI Holdings in Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE Lavington when it closes next week. 129366 never done an interview or process like that before,” he said. Many older workers and those with highly-specialised non-transferable skills are concerned about their future employment prospects in the Border region, but say the company is being helpful during a challenging period. A private outsourcing and training company has now been hired by DSI Holdings to spend a year with redundant workers at no cost, with the goal of helping find every single one a job in the local community.

It is expected to be a big job, but one that recruitment company Turn2 Work Force Solutions can handle, according to its spokesperson Andrew Schoenfeld, who spends much time assisting the local DSI workers. “We are committed to it,” he said. “Some have got mortgages, kids to feed, and cars to pay off. “It takes a lot of work and energy, and there are going to be a few who will struggle, but we have to be confident.”

The outsourcing company will be using reverse marketing tactics, including advertising, retraining, and upskilling DSI employees to help give them a better chance at finding employment. “This is not just about finding them a job,” Mr Schoenfeld said. “We want to ensure their transition into a career path is going to be successful.” Mr Schoenfeld said while a number of workers would find it more challenging than others to find work in the

local area, the employees’ attitudes during a difficult period had been outstanding. “A lot of these people wouldn’t know how to construct a resume, or have done an interview, or know about networking,” he said. “The last few days they’ve been exceptional now that they know it’s over (at DSI). They have a really good outlook and are very responsive.” Albury Wodonga News Weekly contacted DSI Holdings, but no-one was available for comment.

What a day at the races

Matina’s fortunate life By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE BORDER is lucky to call a woman like Matina Jewell one of our own. Having graduated from Duntroon in 1997, Jewell served as a United Nations peacekeeper and began building an amazing career. It was during her service in the Middle East in 2005, where she was serving at UN Patrol Base Khiam, that tensions in the area erupted and Jewell’s life changed forever. In a move to the Lebanese port of Tyre, Jewell’s UN vehicle crashed. She suffered a suspected spinal injury, and spent two days on the floor in agony at the Tyre UN headquarters. The biggest blow of all, though, was discovering her colleagues had been killed during the bombing of Patrol Base Khiam. Jewell continues to think of herself as lucky, telling the Albury Wodonga News Weekly she had had many close calls in her career, including dozens of near-misses at the base earlier in her service, and a highly-explosive artillery round landing just 15 metres in front of her. Despite her horrific injuries, which still affect her to this day, and having to retire from her duties, Jewell’s career has continued to flourish. She now sits on a number of government advisory panels and not-for-profit boards, is a wife and mother, and a highly sought national and international speaker on leader-

By ERIN SOMERVILLE IT WAS the event to kick off spring racing at Wodonga, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. A strong crowd of about 3000, decked out in the latest spring fashions, fascinators, and brimming with the latest hot tips, flocked to the Wodonga and District Turf Club to try their luck and enjoy the beautiful weather. With the Melbourne Cup onsite and a good track, the popular event day has continued to concrete country racing as a firm favorite among locals. “It was a fabulous day,” Racing Wodonga General Manager Tom O’Connor said. “Everyone really enjoyed themselves.” The cross-generational pull of a day at the races was evident, with Mr O’Connor reporting a very diverse crowd of all ages and agendas making their way to the racecourse, showcasing why country racing is so popular. “We’ve got the facilities to cater to everyone,” he said.

Matina Jewell will share her incredible story tonight at the Border Trust’s On The Couch series. 129110 ship and motivation. There have been many hurdles to clear and challenges to overcome, making Jewell’s story one of incredible inspiration and courage. It is a story she will be sharing today, Wednesday, 22 October, as part of the Border Trust’s On the Couch series. The series include intimate conversations, not keynote addresses, and are guided by host John Walker. Guests share stories and DVDs or photographs and take questions from the audience at the end. Jewell said she is looking forward to sharing her story with the local community. “Out of adversity can come great things,” she said.

considering the large amount of racing occurring across Australia this season. A particular highlight of the day was the crowd throwing its support behind Border Ovarian Cancer, with a strong support for the charity celebrity race and donations being made throughout the entire day. “It was overwhelming the amount of people who were wearing the ovarian ribbons, just amazing.”

“We have the traditional side and the bookies, and all the racing side of things, and all the members love the Wodonga track. “Then we have the deck and DJ that provides a relaxed atmosphere for 18 to 35-yearolds. “For kids we have a range of activities, such as a clown and jumping castle.” The six-race program drew a reasonable number of entries

Shout out with your road ideas By ERIN SOMERVILLE WIDER roads, more safety barriers, or even a slower speed limit. These are all safety options Member for Albury Greg Aplin welcomes residents to put forward to help enhance the safety of sections of the Riverina Highway, east of Albury, as part of a multi-million dollar upgrade. The project will include upgrades to 5.7 kilometres of the highway between Sandy Creek, towards Lake Hume Village, and through to Bethanga Bridge. It will be completed in two stages, with works on Sandy Creek to the village expected to start next year. The challenging second leg of the project from the village through to Bethanga Bridge, which will pass by popular recreational areas such as The Pines, has prompted Mr Aplin to call upon the public to put forward ideas of how to make the road safer for drivers. The road is used by many young people and is popular for tourists and those enjoying recreational activities around the water. “The real safety issue here, according to the road experts, is whether it is safer to maintain the existing speed limit of 80 kilometres per hour or to move to 60 kilometres per hour on this short but steep and winding stretch,” he said. “We owe it to them to consider fresh options for safety at this key location,” Mr Aplin said. The project is a lot larger than initially expected, with the State Government earlier pledging over $5 million to the widening of the Riverina Highway between

Member for Albury Greg Aplin and a Roads and Maritime Services spokesperson look at upgrading the Riverina Highway 129324 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE Sandy Creek and Lake Hume Village. The extra 3.2 kilometres to Bethanga Bridge could take the project’s price tag up to over $10 million, although Mr Aplin is unable to confirm a figure at this time. The Roads and Maritime Services expects the stretch of road around The Pines, which passes by a quarry, will be challenging to upgrade. Mr Aplin said the project was a real win for the community, as well as himself personally, being a project that had been close to his heart. “I have been chasing this since 2003,” he said.

While patchworks have been completed on the road by the previous government, Mr Aplin said they were not adequate. Works on this second part of the project aren’t expected to begin until 2016. The consultation period will be between 27 October and 21 November. To provide feedback you can complete a quick on-line survey at www.rms.nsw. gov.au, email Wagga.Wagga.Regional.

Man approaches 12-year-old girl By ERIN SOMERVILLE LOCAL police are continuing to urge parents to ensure their children know the Safe People Safe Places strategy after a young girl was approached in Lavington last week. On Wednesday morning, a 12-year-old girl was approached by an unknown man after his white vehicle had been slowly tailing her as she walked to school on North Street, near the Macaulay Street intersection. The young girl then walked through a nearby park, before a man in the driver’s seat allegedly called out for her to get in the car. She was able to run away to a nearby high school and the car drove off. Police began an investigation into the incident on Thursday and are appealing to anyone with information about the vehicle or the man to contact them. The car has been described as white in colour, possibly a stationwagon, with tinted windows and a blue/white registration plate on the front. The man has been described as aged in his fifties, with a tanned complexion and grey hair. Earlier this month, a 15-yearold girl was approached and assaulted in Howlong. Police are urging anyone with information about this incident to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or use the Crime Stoppers

online reporting page: https:// nsw.crimestoppers.com.au/ Meanwhile, the incident has again prompted police to encourage parents to discuss the ‘Safe People, Safe Places’ messages with their children, including; Make sure your parents or another adult you know knows where you are at all times. Always walk straight home or to the place you are walking to. Walk near busier roads and streets, or use paths where there are lots of other people. Know where safe places are – a shop, service station, police station, library or school. If you are ever frightened, you should go to one of these places and ask them to call the police. Learn about safe adults you can look for and talk to if you need help - police officers, teachers at school, adults you know and trust. Don’t talk to people you don’t know and never get into a car with someone you don’t know. If a car stops on the side of the road and you don’t know the person inside, do not stop. If you are scared and can use a phone, call triple-zero and tell them you are scared. If someone tries to grab you, yell out, ‘Go away, I don’t know you’. This lets other people know you have been approached by someone you don’t know.

“Sharron shows an incredibly positive attitude and dedication to not just the team she works in, but the residents of Bupa Wodonga, their families and the aged care industry as a whole.

LO

IT’S the small things about her job that Sharron McCormack loves. Getting to know her clients at Bupa Aged Care, sharing a joke with cheeky residents, and simply being on hand to offer a comforting cup of tea when it’s needed. It’s these little, caring touches that have seen Ms McCormack named the State’s Food Service Assistant of the Year in the 2014 OSCAR Hospitality Aged Care Awards, for her passion and commitment to providing person-first care to all of the residents at her guests at the local aged care home. Ms McCormack was overwhelmed when she found out she had won, having no idea she had even been nominated. “I was over the moon,” she said. “That’s not why I come to work, I love the residents and the job, but it’s nice to have that bit of respect from the boss for the little things.” Ms McCormack regularly takes the time to keep the residents happy, including putting ice in residents’ drinks who prefer it, taking the time to have a chat with someone, making tea for residents when morning tea is over, and just being flexible to cater to the residents’ needs. Being able to provide nutritious meals to the residents is also a big prioirty. “Especially in aged care it’s important to provide this service to them, and it’s great knowing they have a nice meal, that’s hydrating and full of nutrition.” The award aims to create a fivestar culture for aged care hospitality, and Bupa Wodonga General Manager, Linda Hudec, says that is exactly what Ms McCormack delivers.

FOR some, the diagnosis of dementia can be an earth-shattering and depressing experience for both the sufferer and those around them. Learning to live positively with the disease can be a challenge, but there is a strong net of people in the Border community who can help sufferers, carers, and family do just that. On 28 October, the team behind the Border’s Dementia Awareness Day is hoping to help those find an easier and happier path to manage and understand the disease. “Some people get the diagnosis and think it’s all doom and gloom,” The Dementia Centre consultant Catherine Buckley said. “We want people on this journey with someone to know they can live well and positively.” One of the biggest challenges carers have is overcoming the confusion of what services are available, and for what specific needs. With multiple dementia-related services being showcased on the day, organisers hope this will make the process easier and more understandable. A number of carers will also be sharing their experience and lessons. With 332,000 Australians currently diagnosed with dementia, and a further 500,000 by 2030, the need to understand this disease is more important than ever. “Dementia is the third biggest cause of death in Australia,” Ms Buckley said. “Not a lot is known about the disease and there is a lot of stigma and misperception. “It really is a health priority in regional areas and across Australia.” Dementia Awareness Day is open to anyone in the community who wants to learn more about dementia. The day, presented by the Local Dementia Service Providers, will be held at Mirambeena Community Centre, 19 Martha Mews, Lavington on 28 October from 10am until 1.30pm. The program will include respite services, community support services, Dementia Behaviors Management Advisory Service, Aged Care Assessment Team, residential care providers, Centrelink representatives, and the Cognitive Dementia and Memory Service. Admission is free.

Childcare solution

Albury Wodonga Mowing and Gardening

By ERIN SOMERVILLE FOR rural families, daycare can be a difficult option. Travelling many kilometres to the nearest daycare centre, working around strict hours, and not having the flexibility are all problems rural families doing shiftwork or seasonal harvests can face when raising young children. It was 20 years ago that the then team at Greater Hume Children Services put together the model of Family Day Care, where educators can take a small group of children to be cared for when their parents are working, and they are now celebrating their well-deserved milestone. Around 600 people who have been cared for through the organisation, or parents who have put their children into the hands of the trusted educators, attended the 20-year celebration on Saturday. The free celebrations on the weekend included free refreshments and barbecue, a petting zoo, a jumping castle, face painting, arts and crafts, and entertainment. The organisation’s Service Manager Rose Nauer, who has been involved with Greater Hume Children Services since 1997, said it was a wonderful experience to look back over the achievements of the last two decades. “It was really a tremendous service back then and had a really great feel about it, and had a real nurturing feel,” she said. “Over the years, it has really grown up, and a lot of that is providing good educators and good care.”

The Greater Hume Children Services began in the Hume, Holbrook and Culcairn area in 1994. Since then, the organisation has trumped the rigorous childcare standards that have since been introduced over the years. “We were the first service to go through the (new national educators standard reforms) in 2012,” Ms Nauer said. “A lot of people thought we’d struggle because we’re small and rural, but we exceeded the standards in all the areas. “We knew it wasn’t a fluke because in 2013 we were awarded the NSW Family Day Care Australia Excellence in Family Day Care Award in NSW.” Now the team is calling

upon more people in the community to join in on the rewarding career as an educator for local children in their important early years of development. “We are always looking for people who have a genuine interest in children,” Ms Nauer said. “A lot of people think it’s (an educator’s qualification) unattainable, but that’s really not true.” Ms Nauer said the job was ideal for people running their own small business from home, or who want the time to see their own children at school functions like assemblies. “It is a win-win situation because the younger children get that school exposure, too.”

Up and away By ERIN SOMERVILLE THERE is a lot of history, exciting mechanics, and fun lurking behind the closed hangar doors at Albury airport. Luckily, Albury Aeroclub is throwing them open on the weekend for the public to get up close and personal with some of the best aircraft in the region. While the Albury Airport Open Day has been running occasionally for 20 years, local curiosity for things that fly has gathered momentum over the past few years, with a strong public interest allowing organisers to host an annual event for the past five years. For local amateur pilot Dr Michael Thomas, flying is a passion he is excited to share this weekend. “Flying is really exciting, as well as physically and mentally challenging.” A lot of young children who dream of being a pilot are enthralled when they can sit in a plane and explore the cockpit at the open days. “Every year they just look absolutely enthralled by being in the aircraft.” This year’s Albury Airport’s Annual Open Day is extra special, celebrating the 80th anniversary of the Uiver aircraft. Built in 1933, the Uiver was the first flying machine with automatic steering and one of the few aircraft with retractable landing gear. It was also the first plane to feature an entirely separate cockpit and food preparation area. Keen to exploit the possibili-

The Albury Airport Open Day will reflect upon the 80th anniversary of the Uiver landing in Albury. 129361 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE ties of world air travel, the Uiver was entered in the 1934 London to Melbourne air race as the only race entrant with fare-paying passengers. Famously, a fierce electrical storm cut wireless contact and the Uiver drifted off course, becoming hopelessly lost before finding itself circling above Albury. An appeal was broadcast over a local radio station for listeners to take their cars to the Albury racecourse and line-up so a landing strip could be illuminated with headlights. At 1.20am, the Uiver dropped two parachute flares and made its approach to land. It bumped several times on the undulating centre of the racecourse and slithered to a halt 100 yards short of the inner fence. The aircraft was safe. However, the drama didn’t end until 300 locals had to dig it out of the mud the next day, so it could continue to Melbourne.

Sadly in December 1934, the Uiver crashed in the Syrian Desert during a mail flight from America to Jakarta, killing all on board. After the tragedy, the people of Albury contributed to a memorial erected in Holland to honour those killed in the crash. This year the Albury Aero Club has teamed up with the Uiver Memorial Community Trust and the Antique Car Club, which will help recreate the Albury landing of the Uiver. There will also be a presence by the Australian Air Force Cadets and the State Emergency Service(SES), guided tours of the aircraft, a Dutch street organ, refreshments, and entertainment for all the kids. The Albury Airport Open Day will be held on Saturday 25 on the Southern Apron, Albury Airport from 10am until 2pm. Entry is by gold coin.

Social Seen Spring shines on the track By ERIN SOMERVILLE ABOUT 3000 Border residents, and guests from afar, headed to Wodonga on the weekend to join in the Caulfield Cup fun. Punters enjoyed great track conditions and a strong field to make a bet, while those there for a socialise took advantage of the facility’s deck and DJ. Even children had a great day out, with a jumping castle and clown keeping them laughing all day long. The Caulfield Cup is the first big event on Wodonga Racing’s spring racing calendar.

YOU eat well. You exercise. You’re careful about what you put onto your skin and hair. But if you’re not feeling as good as you know you should, the missing piece of your feelgood puzzle could be getting adequate and quality sleep. According to The Medical Journal of Australia, insomnia is a common disorder that has significant long-term health consequences. Australian population surveys show 13 to 33 percent of adults have regular difficulty getting to sleep or staying asleep. Sleeping in the right environment and ensuring the body is getting nutrient dense nutrition is an ideal place to start for those who regularly toss and turn, suggests naturopath, nutritionist and Lifestream superfoods advocate Janella Purcell. “Sleep disorders are estimated to cost millions in lost productivity, accidents and health costs and are mostly triggered by our own anxieties and worries,” Purcell says.

CHERYL Cummins is a clairvoyant, Tarot card reader and medium, who has recently moved to Albury from Sydney. While running a very successful business in Sydney, she became well-known and has gained national media attention through working in radio and TV. Cheryl was only young when she discovered her ability and later became aware that she shared this gift with her grandmother. Initially Cheryl found it hard to understand and manage her extraordinary talent and suffered from panic attacks and agoraphobia. With the help of renowned medium Margaret Dent, Cheryl was eventually able to embrace her gift and use it in a very positive way. That was 40 years ago. Since then she has nurtured her abilities, bringing insight and guidance to her clients to help serve as a guide through uncertain times in their lives. We all experience problems and sometimes need assistance to understand and work through them.

Back for more at spine time By TANIA PHILLIPS IT’S time to ‘Straighten Up and Move’ so you can better your spinal health and improve your quality of life. ‘Straighten Up and Move’ was this year’s theme for World Spine Day held earlier this month established by the Bone and Joint Decade (BJD) - Global Alliance for Musculoskeletal Health. October is also ‘National Chiropractic Health Month’ hosted by the American Chiropractic Association. The Chiropractors’ Association of Australia (CAA) is encouraging Australians to think about their spinal health during the month of October and try to ‘Straighten Up and Move’. CAA national spokesperson Dr Billy Chow said that spinal health was more important than most people realised. “Simple things like your postural position when you sit and for how long you sit, can have a massive impact on your health,” Dr Chow said. “Our sedentary lifestyle is a major contributing factor to obesity and many other chronic diseases. By doing the simple things such as improving your

posture, keeping active and living a healthier lifestyle you can prevent a lot of health problems happening later in life. Keeping your spine healthy and mobile is what chiropractors are trained to do, and a healthy and mobile spine is vital to good health.” The CAA’s Just Start Walking wellness initiative is one way to help get you moving. There is an app available for both Android and iPhone (download from www.juststartwalking.com.au), where you can track your walks via GPS, log your walking history, share your walks with friends online and find walking events in your local area. You can also choose to make a walking pledge to help make walking a regular part of your life. To help keep an eye on your posture while you’re sitting at home or work, www.whatsyourposture.com.au gives you handy tips and there’s also a downloadable SitRight widget to prompt you to take regular breaks or you can check with your local chiropractor for other handy tips. Sitting facts:

body will adapt to cater · Your to what you do most often.

·

When your body adapts to constant sitting it makes you less skilled at basic functions like standing, walking, running and jumping. Sitting all day can result in muscle stiffness, poor balance and mobility, as well as pain in your lower back, neck and hip.

Tips to help you ‘Straighten Up and Move’ Sit less: we can improve our health simply by standing up and moving around more. Try standing whenever you’re on the phone as a way to break up your sitting time. Consider introducing ‘walking meetings’ into your workplace. Try walking around the block instead of catching up with small groups in the boardroom. Factor in ‘on your feet time’ such as stretching or standing, walking around the office, changing/correcting posture, moving to loosen the body. Factor in regular physical activity: try what’s appropriate for you such as walking or running, exercise or dance class, playing sports.

THE wonderfully experienced and down-to-earth Anne Lafferty, owner-operator of House of Lingerie in Wodonga. Anne has had the store for eight years and is experienced in making sure you are fitted well whether it be for a first bra, everyday wear or after breast surgery.

THERE is never any substitute for old-fashioned customer service and personalised attention - but when you have been touched by breast cancer then this is probably even more important. House of Lingerie is the local accredited fitting specialist for Amoena breast forms. This means that at a time when a woman may be feeling at her most vulnerable - sick and sore, just finished with surgery and going through treatment - there is a sole-trader there to offer private and personalised service. House of Lingerie owner and operator Anne Lafferty says she prides herself in making sure that anyone coming into House of Lingerie, whether it be for a first bra, wedding and maternity garments or after surgery, always feels welcome and special and not like a number. Anne said when she first opened the store eight years ago she was approached almost im-

mediately by a breastcare nurse to provide the fitting service for prostheses after breast surgery. “There was a niche there,” she said. “There wasn’t a small, intimate boutique doing prosthesis fittings.” She said she decided to settle into the business for a year or so first, before travelling to Sydney to undergo the training with Amoena to provide this service. And now as a trained fitter with a lot of experience behind her, she sees it as an honour to help women through this difficult time. Over the years she admits to seeing women of all ages and all walks of life - because unfortunately cancer doesn’t discriminate, but she believes it’s her age and maturity that helps provide the right, specialised service that a woman needs at that time and indeed other major times in her life.

And of course the nice thing is that Amoena and House of Lingerie are both there to provide this important service to the women in our region. Amoena is the world leader in breast care, with a range that spans breast symmetry products. Its mission is to improve women’s quality of life after surgery. Amoena’s founder, Cornelius Rechenberg, set out to develop a breast form as natural as a real breast. The company’s bras are specially designed to combine comfort and good looks with the security you need following breast surgery. Anne said it doesn’t take long to find out whether you’ve got the perfect fit - it just takes a bit of know-how. House of Lingerie is located in Suite 7/1 Stanley Street, Wodonga. Call 02 6056 9536 to chat to Anne about all of your fitting needs.

Tammy stands by herself Tammy (M) Starring: Melissa McCarthy, Susan Sarandon, Kathy Bates SOMETIMES I can’t help but feel sorry for Melissa McCarthy. It seems she has a habit lately of drawing some of the most annoying, hard-doneby characters in her spree of comedy flicks. We first meet her this time as Tammy, a no-hoper who can’t even hold down a job at the local fat food joint. Upon coming home, she discovers her husband is having an affair, and promptly leaves to move in a few doors down, with her mother. But when the going gets tough, the tough get going, and that’s exactly what Tammy does. She spontaneously takes herself, her hard-drinking grandmother, and her grandmother’s money and car on a reckless road trip to redemption. Through some battles between her and her grand-

mother, and with the advice of wealthy southern lesbians, Tammy learns to overcome some of the negative attitudes holding her back in life. While there are not many laugh-out-loud moments in this film, McCarthy constantly keeps the audience smiling with her effortless way of humorously portraying a woman who just doesn’t quite fit in with society’s standards. The film is refreshing in depicting a heroine who isn’t typically beautiful, smart, or talented in any certain area, but all the while still driving home the message that she deserves to be happy just as much as anyone else. The cast of this film is surprisingly star-studded, with Kathy Bates and Sandra Oh doing a great job of playing a loving and smart couple. Alison Janney holds her ground as Tammy’s exasperated mother, and Susan Sarandon is very delightful as the harddrinking granny, with her energy and age usually enhancing the wacky character. - Erin Somerville

THE year 2015 for home entertainment equipment will go down as a significant shift towards simplification and stability within a home network. For this to occur planning is required to develop your requirements. Why this statement now and not two years ago, or five years into the future? We have the knowledge that a good percentage of homes will have an acceptable calibre of internet within the home. It does not require NBN (although it helps) but a better understanding that quality routers and infrastructure is required to run multiple items and users that take up bandwidth from the internet. Gone are the days of needing many source items whereby purchasing high quality multidisc player, these units can provide options of eight separate boxes, and items such as the array of internet media units have simplified the process. We can go evenfurther via the removal of individual expensive AV receivers that were central to the home theatre and network. Music around the home has become as simple as finding a powerpoint, with varying levels of music allowing you to ac-

cess millions of songs, tens of thousands of radio stations and stream your music library from your computer. Other additional benefits from security, lighting, motorised blinds and other household management will become the norm within the next few years. This may sound easy and it’s been a long time coming, the technology while complex is now beginning to become operator friendly. My belief is the foundations and formats for the next decade and beyond that are relevant to your home have been announced. No differently to the past, the collection of electronics must perform as a team, not a collection of specials of the day or the latest award winner. It may be a little more boring; however it is all about doing the functions that best suit without fanfare. The developments for 2015: Ultra High Definition will arrive correctly. The next generation of televisions will interface with the recently announced formats for the next generation player and streaming services. With Ultra High Definition both as 4K or 8K it was best to wait

until the formats for the players and streamers were announced before upgrading. Projectors are going digital, recent announcements of digital projectors entering the consumer price markets will change the reality of true big screen television. With lamps expected to outlast most LCD televisions and image standards to challenge the best televisions, we will now be able to develop a screen that can move from the traditional 16 x 9 television screen to the full widescreen experience as a long-term investment. The next generation of surround sound established is called Dolby Atmos, designed to be a true 360-degree sound experience. Dolby Atmos provides a true overhead experience coupled with the surround sound system it is a genuine advancement for home theatre. Planning is the key - over time we bring in a group of experts in their fields to ensure the work is balanced and practical, the future plan within the home will also require a master plan for the future to protect your home from becoming technology dated and being locked into a system that holds you to ransom in the future.

Showers of blessings in field THE skies may have opened over the 51st annual Henty Machinery Field Days, but so too did the wallets. Farmers across the region had their prayers answered when around 20mm fell over the thirsty

spring crops last week, boosting profits at the major event as well as morale. With a record number of visitors flooding in on HMFD’s opening day, and strong sales reported right across the event, the small town of

Henty still makes a big impression when it comes to putting on a show. For all the Henty Machinery Field Days fun and action, turn to page 6.

THE Albury Wodonga Islamic community fears it could soon face hostility from residents with the heavy national media focus on Islamic terrorists. The comments come from Islamic Society of Albury Wodonga president Yakub Muhammad who spoke to the Albury Wodonga News Weekly following anti-terror raids on Islamic homes across Australia and a ramped-up national committment to fight the Islamic State, or ISIS. Mr Muhammad said the constant recent media coverage of a small percentage of Islamic extremists, who he said the peaceful local community condemn, threatened to create a fear mongering mentality against all Muslims, particularly in regional Australia. “Regional areas tend to cop it the most because there isn’t as much education or exposure to Muslims,� he said. “All of a sudden people can see someone with dark skin in a turban or Islamic costume or with a head scarf on, and I have specifically seen here some people get scared and some get angry.�" Mr Muhammad, Yakub Muhammad. who has lived in Albury for 27 years, said his sister and wife have recently been abused in a car park by a man for wearing hijabs (scarfs that cover the hair) and were left feeling shaken and too afraid to continue their shopping. His friend’s wife has also reported being abused by a man in Lavington shopping centre for wearing a niqab (veil that covers the face and shows only the eyes), and said she had to publicly defend her decision for wanting to wear one for religious reasons. Mr Muhammad said he is concerned about the effect current international events and media coverage will create, particularly on Albury Wodonga’s approximate 300 Muslim residents. “I’m just waiting to get more abusive calls, I think they are coming big time,� he said. “Islam is about peace, not violence or beheadings, that’s not Islam� he said. Mr Muhammad said he is making an effort to open the doors of the local Muslim community to residents who have any questions or are curious, including holding open days.

DOMESTIC violence should not remain behind closed doors. This is the message local police and support workers are shouting across the city following a rise in reported cases this year. The latest Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research report shows 50 extra cases of domestic violence were reported in Albury during the 12 months to June, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The 19 per cent jump means Albury’s latest domestic violence count stands at 310 incidents. With staff at the Women’s Centre for Health and Well-being Albury Wodonga seeing more than this number of women every year, it is almost certain this is only a small fraction of incidents occuring behind closed doors in the local government area. “The statistics don’t reflect how many women and children suffer from domestic violence,� the centre’s health promotion worker Peta Pitman said. The incorporation acknowledges women can occasionally be the instigators of domestic violence themselves, but statistics show the crime is most often committed by males. The centre works with local residents to help them escape domestic violence situations, and provide them with knowledge, options, and support. Many women seek assistance anonomously. “For us, it’s all about wanting women to be safe,� Ms Pitman said. “We work with experts to support them in what way is right for their individual situation.� There have been suggestions that the rise in domestic vioence reports could be a positive indication that it is no longer a crime being kept secret. “In terms of that, we are seeing more confidence with victims report-

THE Border’s music scene is not being given a proper chance to be heard, say local artists. The comments come after NSW Police Minister Michael Gallacher stated earlier this month that the live music industry was dead thanks to the closure of music venues. Local artists say the music scene is well and truly flourishing behind closed garage doors on the Border, but finding avenues to perform live can be tricky. Many local acts find it necessary to travel out of the region and to major cities to showcase their hard work. A heavy emphasis on DJs and pop music culture through programs such as The Voice and X Factor has also been detrimental to up-and-coming musicians, with audiences constantly demanding more than a stripped-down, talented performance, Border artists said. Albury band Midnight Alibi’s singer James Oswald is one of many musicians who spoke to the Albury Wodonga News Weekly, and is eager to see more support for live music. “The music scene here is better than what people think,� he said. “In the last five years there have been that many people starting bands and playing. “There is a lot of need to have a platform to showcase the work.� With many venues preferring to hire cover bands or DJs, some local artists say they feel pushed out of the scene on the Border. “We have both a vibrant music scene with lots of local talent but it is being squandered by the lack of a dedicated live music venue who regularly have bands on,� local musician and sound engineer Jake Mannik said. Local bands say they face further obstacles when they do secure some local stages, having to fork out for a sound engineer and security if none are already provided at the venue. For

as ‘Indi expats’, had full knowledge of the fraudulent conduct and even encouraged it. No evidence has been put forward that Ms McGowan knew of this conduct. Ms McGowan’s media adviser has stated that she will not be making further comments on the incident at this stage. Meanwhile, Voices 4 Indi president Alana Johnson said the group had not yet been contacted by the AEC and denied endorsing fraudulent voting. She further outlined concern that the investigation could deter young voters from heading to the polls. “We only know what we’ve read in the paper, we’ve not had any contact from the AEC,� Ms Johnson said. “Many rural young people leave home to study, travel and work, they are often transient and their family home remains their permanent address. If young people’s place of enrolment is an issue for Indi, then it is an issue for rural electorates across the country. “Any clarification and improvement the AEC can make to the enrolment process that encourages and helps young people to be involved will be welcomed.� Meanwhile, the AEC was unable to outline the consequences for Ms McGowan’s political future if the investigation ruled her campaigners submitted fake votes, but said findings would be released shortly. Acting Electoral Commissioner Tom Roger, who was last week tasked with examining enrolment details, said he was taking the matter very seriously “I have asked for the AEC examination to be given the highest priority,� he said. “These investigations are continuing at the present time. Once the task is completed - which I expect to be soon - if there is any doubt at all regarding the enrolments, I will take further steps, including, if necessary, referral to the AFP.�

INDEPENDENT Member for Indi Cathy McGowan says she fully supports an investigation into electoral fraud after claims many Indi voters in the 2013 Federal Election supplied incorrect residential details. While Ms McGowan stated earlier this week that she had not yet been contacted by the Australian Electoral Commission, she highlighted in a public statement that she welcomed any queries they might have. She first heard of the allegations on Friday. “It’s important the Australian people have the utmost confidence in the AEC and electoral process and I know they will undertake an extensive and professional investigation,� Ms McGowan said. “But we must be mindful these are allegations, so let’s wait and see the results before making a judgement.� Ms McGowan won the seat of Indi in a surprise 439-vote win over Liberal candidate Sophie Mirabella last September through a strong grassroots campaign known as Voices 4 Indi. It is now believed many voters were no longer living in the area at the time of election. The AEC’s new integrity unit is reportedly investigating over 20 potentially fraudulent enrolments by McGowan supporters, whose Indi enrolment addresses fail to correspond with their home addresses in other seats, previous enrolment information, and social media information such as on Facebook and LinkedIn. Ms McGowan agrees that the unlawful declarations should be fully investigated. “An enrolment is a declaration made by an individual to the AEC and it is up to the individual to ensure it is accurate and lawful,� she said. Allegations have surfaced that McGowan campaign workers, referred to

Homes&Property �� Albury Wodonga

A total charmer, to its heart By ERIN SOMERVILLE DISCOVERING all the surprises of this unique home is half the fun. This three-storey home is perched on the heights of Parkland Drive, overlooking the beautiful Les Stone Park, close to sporting facilities, Central Wodonga, and schools. Inside, it’s just as delightful. A formal lounge or reception area leads into a large, family area complete with wooden floorboards, gas and ducted heating. There is so much space, leaving buyers with multiple options of how to utilise the areas. The house boasts a large and light timber kitchen area, equipped with a massive walk-in pantry, a luxurious amount of cupboard space, and a gas cooker. The potential in this large kitchen area is enormous, and with it opening onto a beautiful decking area overlooking the park

and backyard, the rewards are massive as well. A smaller, formal or casual dining room just sitting off the kitchen will only spark off more ideas as to how buyers can use the space to its full potential. It’s the small and surprising charms that continue to make this house so intriguing. The main level continues to boast a bathroom, a delightful open powder-room area, and a master bedroom equipped with built-in wardrobes. Upstairs, the exciting mystery of the home continues to unravel, with three lovely bedroom areas, two of which are equipped with their own study area. A bathroom is also conveniently located on this top floor. The potential for these bedrooms upstairs is endless, and would be ideal for guests or giving children their own space away from the main bedroom and living area.

The home’s wonders don’t stop there. The bottom storey, which opens up into a massive rumpus room, is equipped with a large gas heater and built-in bar, making it ideal for entertaining guests or the kids all-year round. Opening onto the backyard, and equipped with a toilet, this area is ideal for the entertainers or those who love the outdoors. Branching off from the large rumpus is a generous-sized bedroom, again providing private accommodation for older children or guests. This floor also has a large laundry area, with plenty of storage space.

Good time to have a look WITH growth in Victoria’s property market starting to moderate, now is a good time for first home buyers and first-time investors to consider their options. Sales in regional Victoria have been consistent over the past 12 months, resulting in solid price growth. But with a more stable performance outlook and steady interest rates set to continue, securing a quality regional property has become all the more feasible. A home is the biggest purchase we are likely to make, and for those who are initiating a lifestyle change in the country, the commitment is more than just a financial one. For inexperienced or first-time buyers, the process can be daunting. Agents report that some first home buyers have limited knowledge of the sales process or even a section 32 vendor statement - the information a seller must provide about the property. The most important tip for new buyers to bear in mind when preparing to purchase their first property is: Do your research so you know what you’re getting into. The first step is to monitor recent sales activity in the town or region you’re considering and the services and amenities within that area. If you’re preparing to settle there or relocate, think about your most important priorities: Will you be commuting some distance for work-

and how long will this take? Is there shopping close by? What about essential medical and other facilities? If you’re a first-time investor, look at the median rental prices for that town and whether you’re likely to recoup your investment outlay over a certain period. Is the region growing and are rental properties in demand? Work out your sums and how much you can afford so you don’t overstretch your finances. It’s wise to leave some ‘breathing space’ in case interest rates or other circumstanceschange in the future. Furthermore, make sure you fully understand the buying process, what you are signing up to, and all the legal and financial implications. On Wednesday, 29 October, the REIV - in conjunction with Consumer Affairs Victoria and the Law Institute of Victoria - is holding a free information seminar in Melbourne for first home buyers and new investors. Expert speakers will present on various topics such as your legal rights and obligations, interest rates and different mortgage types. I will provide an overview of the current state of Victoria’s property market, geared to first home buyers and less experienced investors. Details on the home buyers seminar can be found at the REIV website - www.reiv.com.au - where you can register online or by calling (03) 9205 6601 to reserve your seat.

When it’s just too, too late IMAGINE this. It’s 30 minutes until the auction is set to start. An interested buyer approaches the auctioneer with an extra clause for the contract for sale. Inclusion of the proposed clause would entitle the potential buyer to settle 30 days later than any other bidder. Tony Cahill, legal author and contributor to the redraft of the contract for sale and purchase of land, says this is not a fair way of dealing with property. “When the auctioneer does their introduction to the property, they typically recite the compulsory standard conditions of auctions and one of them is: ‘As soon as practicable, after the fall of the hammer, the buyer will sign the contract’. They don’t say; ‘These potential buyers will sign one contract if they succeed, but that other potential buyer will sign another with extra clauses’,” Mr Cahill said.

Mr Cahill believes it is at the heart of every auction that people are bidding on the same deal, but that is not always the case. “I think there are a number of agents who believe the most important thing to do is to get a signed contract. One way to get that signed contract might be to maximise the number of bidders in the room by allowing certain concessions. This system is counter-productive and will breach the agents’ obligations. “Saying that the ultimate buyer will sign one contract at an auction, when in fact different contracts may apply for different bidders is misleading and can lead to action being taken, not only under consumer law but under the Property, Stock and Business Agents Act 2002 and Regulation.” Mr Cahill believes that the

problem does not just lie with agents, but that some solicitors and conveyancers who act for intending bidders have formed bad habits. “Often solicitors or conveyancers write letters saying; ‘Can you please confirm that if our client is the successful bidder there will be these changes’. In the interest of the auction having as many people interested as possible, many vendors agree,” Mr Cahill said. Mr Cahill suggests agents reassess the way they handle the situation. “The better approach, assuming the vendor is willing to give a concession to one buyer, is to give that concession to every potential buyer. If that concession is having 90 days instead of the usual 42 days until settlement, then why not allow every potential buyer the same opportunity,” Mr Cahill said.

Local Sport Harris century leads way By JAMES MCNEIL A CENTURY to Lavington captain Sam Harris led the way for his team to defeat Albury in what was a day of quality matches, some excellent finishes and brilliant individual performances in round two of the Cricket Albury Wodonga season on Saturday. Harris put together a classy 120 at Lavington Panther’s Oval to set Albury a target of 285. He was ably supported by Tom Hargreaves who ended up with 57. For Albury, Grant Wells was tight with the pill and recorded tidy figures of 3/48 off 19. In chasing Albury’s captain Kade Brown also put in a captain’s knock with 109 supported by Grant Wells who capped off a solid match with 49.

Tom Hargreaves was the pick of the Panthers bowlers, snaring 3/66 from 20 overs as the Albury Titans fell four runs short of victory over the home team. Plenty of runs were scored at Bunton Park with North Albury taking the honours against Belvoir to back up their first round win. Despite resistance from Mick Spiteri (69) and Zac Simmonds (62) in the lower order, a five-wicket haul to Brandon Purtell and 3/58 off 20 to Robert Hartnett restricted Belvoir to 277. In reply Brendan Simmons crafted 103 with support from Daniel Athanitis (63) while Brandon Purtell capped off a great all-round game with 47 not out to get the Hoppers home. Youngster Tate Spiteri toiled well to

gather 3/65 off 14 for Belvoir. At Urana Road oval New City’s first five batsmen got starts with John Pratt (77) and Hayden Wishart (51*) the best as the New City Phoenix posted 5/255. In response Fraser Bremner scored 115 to lead the Tallangatta bushies chase with Greg Mcgillivray (40) and Ned McCormack (38) providing support. Darcy I’Anson took 6/65 off 17 and claimed a catch and the run out of Ned McCormack to cap off a great day in the field and grab victory for New City. A run fest at Alexandra Park saw Wodonga recover from 2/5 through the rearguard action of Trent Ball (93) to post 344 against East Albury. Robbie

Jackson (61) and James Tonkin (83) also got runs for the Wodonga Bulldogs as Cameron White took three wickets. In the chase East Albury’s Leicestershire recruit Aleem Mahmood scored 89 and Kris Milosta blazed 95 as the Crows fell 20 runs short. Last year’s wooden spooners Wodonga Raiders pushed grand finalists St Pat’s right to the end at Xavier. Jonathan Carson scored 47 to help the Raiders to 184 as Mark Butters and Jon Shaw took two wickets each and skipper Kane Arendarcikas finished with 3/31 off 15. Having St Pat’s 5/52 Raiders looked in the box seat, but 51 to Luke Restall and a superb 82 to Dean Nicholson guided St Pat’s home despite three wickets each to Kori Stevenson, Avery

Weilandt and Trae Mack. Some great exhibitions of cricket across round two, with round three shaping to have some tight contests as well. The game of the round will be the replay of last year’s rained-out grand final with St Pat’s taking on Wodonga at Les Cheesley Oval while in other matches Belvoir take on Lavington at Kelly Park, Albury v New City at Billson Oval, Tallangatta take on North Albury at Rowan Park and East Albury are up against Wodonga Raiders at Alexandra Park. James McNeil is the captain of East Albury and will be providing the Albury Wodonga News Weekly with expert commentary on this year’s Cricket Albury Wodonga (CAW) Provincial A Grade competition.

Couldn't have asked for better By ERIN SOMERVILLE WODONGA trainer Lizzy Aalbers couldn’t have asked for a better day for two of her horses to win races. The local trainer, now in her seventies, took home a double win at the weekend’s Caulfield Cup in Wodonga, as both Towong Bridge ($3.30) and Prairie Gold ($3) galloped strongly home. “My two best friends were at the races, and one of them has cancer, so it was a big thrill to win a race for her,” she said. “It was better than winning a race in Melbourne when my friends are there.” The double-win was not a big surprise for Aalbers, working on four gallopers this season, who had confidence in Towong Bridge’s recent racing form. Meanwhile Prairie Gold carried 58 kilograms to victory, despite concerns from Aalbers about the weight. With a strong start to the spring racing season, Aalbers is not too concerned about what lies ahead. “I’m just poking along, it just keeps me doing a bit of exercise every day,” she said. “I try and place where I think they can win. “It is so competitive now, and you regularly run into (popular trainers) Moody, Price, and David Hayes. “Racing on the Border is very strong now with all the Melbourne trainers coming up.” Aalbers expects to next give her winners a run a Albury’s Oaks Day meeting.
