The Mitch pitch: Mayor seeks direct re-election BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN MAYOR John Mitchell has announced his nomination for Geelong’s first direct mayoral election. Cr Mitchell said he had received an “inordinate amount of support to run again”. “People from sporting and business circles and the general community have asked me to stand and I wanted to let them know of my decision,” he said. “I wanted to take the angst out of it and take the pressure off the initial announcement.” Residents will have their first chance to choose City of Greater Geelong’s mayor at council elections on October 27. Under the previous system councillors chose the mayor behind closed doors. The Independent revealed last week that the election would run under a preferential system rather than first-past-the-post. Cr Mitchell said he had received encouragement from both sides of politics. “I’m not a member of a political party, so I’ll be representing everyone, not just sections of the community.” Cr Mitchell said he would run a grassroots campaign. “It won’t be an elaborate campaign. I still have some corflutes left over from the last election. “No doubt some people will throw a lot of money at it but I can’t afford that. I reckon $30,000 would be the upper-limit.” Cr Mitchell said he made his announcement early to avoid it becoming a distraction to his existing work as mayor. “It’ll be a long campaign but that comes later. My sole focus is about being mayor of the day and I can guarantee that an election campaign will not get in the way of that.” Cr Mitchell said he was unconcerned State Government had yet to finalise the full process for the election and mayoral role. He was happy to stand on his record and achievements as mayor over the past four years. “We certainly bat above our weight in terms of grants received from state and federal governments in the last few years.”

Towns call for rollout BY MICHELLE HERBISON DRYSDALE and Clifton Springs will submit a formal request to be included in the next rollout of the national broadband network, according to a community group. Drysdale and Clifton Springs Community Association president Doug Carson said the group wanted to keep the issue “bubbling away” so the towns avoided being duped again. NBN Co last month announced plans to connect Bellarine Peninsula towns including Ocean Grove, Queenscliff and Point Lonsdale and new residential estates at Clifton Springs. However, NBN Co left out Drysdale, Portarlington, Indented Head, St Leonards and established areas of Clifton Springs. Mr Carson said the community was “not prepared to sit back and do nothing” after putting up with inadequate mobile phone reception and television black spots for years. “With all those areas together, why can’t we get a decent NBN set-up? The ones with the bad reception have to wait longer.” Mr Carson believed many Drysdale and Clifton Springs residents would connect to the NBN. “For the business community, I’m utterly convinced they’d take it up ASAP.” Committee for Bellarine’s Tom
O’Connor said the first NBN rollout plan “defies logic” “A place like Drysdale is as big as Ocean Grove and Point Lonsdale is fundamentally a holiday resort.” Mr O’Connor said residential developments, new supermarkets and investments in schools proved the towns were growing enough to warrant connection to the NBN. “If we focus on nothing else, we should at least make the NBN available to the young people because they’re the leaders of tomorrow.” NBN Co’s Lalla Hinds said the recent three-year rollout announcement was only part of a planned 10-year build. “Every single property in Australia will be connected. We’re delivering the infrastructure as quickly as we possibly can.” Ms Hinds called the NBN a “national freeway”. “We can’t just put an off-ramp every single step of the freeway to get everyone connected at the same time.” Member for Corio Richard Marles hoped the next rollout would include areas in the region omitted in the three-year plan. “The rollout phase is something that I’m following closely and will continue to push for the best outcome for the Geelong region.”
Ford ‘sticks with the battler’ BY CHERIE DONNELLAN FORD WILL stick with a parts supplier whose financial problems forced the car company to stop work for days, according to a spokesperson. Sinead Phipps said Ford would continue ordering parts from CMI Industrial even though it was in receivership. “It’s business as usual for both Ford and CMI,� Ms Phipps said after Ford’s Geelong staff returned to work on Wednesday. “Our preference is to continue working with CMI, so we’ll wait to hear what the receivers say.� CMI’s landlord locked the company’s workers out of their Melbourne factory last week over a rental dispute. The dispute shut down Ford’s production plant as administra-
tors attempted to save CMI from bankruptcy. Ms Phipps said Ford cooperated with union representatives over staff arrangements during the shutdown. “We brought forward some scheduled down days for this month so we could pay workers 50 per cent of their expected wage. They were then able to top that up with their annual leave entitlements.� Geelong’s Ford senior shop steward, Brendan Sexton, was “happy to be back at work� but “worried� about more delays. “It’s a shame that due to Ford outsourcing parts manufacturing we’re affected by their stuff up.� Mr Sexton said the shutdown had raised concerns among some younger Ford workers
about meeting financial obligations. “I know it’s a financial struggle for some of the younger guys to keep up with their mortgage and bills when this happens. If people were out of leave entitlements, they were losing money really.� Mr Sexton said he hoped Ford would put in place contingencies to “resolve� issues like CMI’s receivership earlier. “It’s sad when big companies can’t work together to deal with these issues early enough. “It’s just hard for people who are doing a good job for the company to lose out for so long.� Ford’s Geelong production plant shut for three days.

Westpac sues Ablett snr for defaulting on mortgage WESTPAC Bank is suing Cats legend Gary Ablett senior for defaulting on mortgage payments for his two Grovedale units. The bank has lodged a writ against the former champion AFL forward in the Supreme Court of Victoria. The writ said Ablett owed more than $186,000 on the mortgage for the
Meadowvale Dve units, bought in 2003. The four-time All Australian player, AFL Hall of Fame inductee and goal-kicking record holder for Geelong Football Club took out a loan for $172,500, the writ said. But Ablett “failed, refused and/or neglected to pay” the mortgage repay-
ments up to January 23 this year. Ablett was “wrongfully in possession” of the properties and had “failed or refused to deliver up possession” of the units, the writ said. Westpac was seeking damages and costs as well as possession of the units. Ablett played six games for
Hawthorn in 1982 and another 242 between 1984 and 1996 for Geelong. He kicked 1030 goals during the his career. Controversy has dogged his retriement, including the death of young Geelong woman Alicia Horan from a drug overdose in his Melbourne hotel room in 2000.
in brief Cats trusted USED-CAR buyers would have more trust in sellers who were Cats fans than supporters of any other AFL team, according to a vehicle research website. CarHistory said it had run a survey finding that buyers would have the most trust in Geelong supporters and the least in Collingwood fans, who were even suspicious of buying from each other.
Laneways start WORK has begun on a project funneling pedestrians throughout central Geelong to encourage “commercial activity, vibrancy and city living”, council has announced. Mayor John Mitchell said works on Brougham St behind Geelong’s Sheraton hotel was the first in a series of improvements to deliver the Central Geelong Laneways and Linkages project.
Residents defy council to create roadside gardens
Florist wins A NOT-FOR-PROFIT florist in Manifold Heights has won a statewide award for its work employing staff with disabilities. Boxes and Bunches won 2012 Victorian Disability Sector Awards’ support worker category at a presentation evening in Melbourne late last week.
Experts’ visions ABOUT 60 leading architects, urban designers and planners have gathered in Geelong to create a “cohesive future plan” for the city’s heart, according to a Deakin University professor. Architecture school head Hisham Elkadi said the group of experts produced a “number of draft scenarios” to inspire discussion on central Geelong’s Vision 2 revitalisation project.

‘Stripping’ for dinner Ms Gillett said sustainability group Future Proofing Geelong planned to draft a nature strips policy for submission to council. Other councils in Melbourne and Sydney already encouraged plantings, she said. The group’s vision would complement many of Geelong council’s existing policies on issues including “walkability” and the environment. “You’re going to want to walk down a street all beautifully planted up with nice nature strips,” Ms Gillett said. She was among Independent readers who responded to a recent Buckets & Bouquets entry under the name Get Real criticising the use of nature
strips” as “communal… farmland”. Ms Gillett said nature strip gardening was also about “creating community”. “Everyone complains it’s not like it used to be,” she said. “Kids don’t play on the street and you don’t know your neighbours. If you start gardening on your nature strip everyone talks to you.” Cloverdale Community Centre’s Sue Hartigan said the centre ran a program about two years ago for people with disabilities to grow vegetables on the facility’s Corio nature strip. The strip was thriving as a communal herb garden that anyone could use, she said. “We just did it. Council didn’t say
anything to us.” Ms Hartigan said nature strips were under a “grey area” of responsibility. “If your nature strip is yours you should be able to do what you want with it. If it’s council’s they should maintain it. “We wanted to become a model to show people it’s really easy to grow your own food even in a small space.” City of Greater Geelong’s Brendan Gaudion said residents could install alternatives to grass subject to council approval. But council’s website says “finesize gravels that meet specific criteria” are the only permitted surface for nature strips other than grass.

BY MICHELLE HERBISON GEELONG residents are increasingly turning nature strips into vegetable gardens because council lacks policies to stop them, according to a community agency. Foodskil’s Katie Gillett said higherdensity living was decreasing residents’ private garden space, so many were planting on nature strips. Council workers occasionally requested gardeners return their nature strips to grass but rarely enforced it, she said. “There are no real rules in Geelong around nature strips. There are guidelines and VicRoads by-laws but there’s no council by-law.”

Tough budget hits sweet spot BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN The Baillieu Government has laced a dour state budget with sweeteners for Geelong. But Gordon Institute of TAFE faces a financial hit, with the government slicing funding for courses statewide. Treasurer Kim Wells said the budget focussed on “securing the future and rebuilding the state’s finances”. The budget allocated funding to fix problems plaguing Geelong’s rail link to Melbourne, including the purchase of additional V/Line rolling stock to increase capacity along with $172 million for regional track maintenance. The Government also delayed the introduction of the troubled myki ticketing system on V/Line rail services until mid-2013. Other announcements affecting the region included: $13.6 million for a co-located

facilities $2 million for renewal of Geelong Performing Arts Centre Member for South Barwon Andrew Katos said the budget’s focus on health care, transport and school upgrades would drive economic activity, productivity and create jobs. “Given the current economic challenges this is a major win for the Geelong region,” Mr Katos said. G21 Alliance chair Cr John Mitchell said the $150 million to the region reinforced the Government’s belief in the area. Labor MPs Lisa Neville, Ian Trezise and John Eren condemned the Government for “failing to take action on jobs and growth for the Geelong region and the Bellarine Peninsula”. They said the Geelong Hospital funding was only $3.8 million this financial year.
Response ‘overwhelms’ riding charity BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN THE PUBLIC response to an Independent story about thieves raiding a tiny local charity has been “overwhelming”, its executive officer says. Rainbow Riders’ Rikki Raadsveld said the charity was full of praise for its many donors. “Offers of help came from both the business community and individuals and we’re still following up with a number of generous donors. “We received three new computer monitors, which have all been put to good use in the children’s classroom.

Geelong community – thank you.”

App speeds up treatment time
BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN A MEDICAL app trialled in Geelong will speed up treatment for patients with serious injuries and illnesses, according to developer Lake Imaging. The Visage Ease app produces high-quality 3D and 4D images for doctors to inspect on iPhones, iPads and iPods. Lake Imaging partner Craig Lightfoot said the app had completed a successful trial in Geelong. He expected it to become a standard tool for doctors and specialists throughout Victoria. Mr Lightfoot said the trial used the technology to streamline urgent treatment for seriously ill or injured patients. “Early diagnosis and treatment is the Holy Grail when it comes to optimising recovery in many
emergencies and illnesses,� he said. The app enabled doctors to view images stored on a server and pass them on to referring physicians. “This now happens at the touch of a screen, reducing waiting times to a minimum,� Mr Lightfoot said. “The Visage solution provides a much faster and higher quality means of communication compared to printed film or patient CDs.� Mr Lightfoot experienced the system firsthand during the trial when six-year-old daughter Clare broke her arm at home. The app allowed him to have Clare’s X-ray examined and the fracture treated within four hours. “Clare may well end up in the history books as one of the first patients in Australia to get the

express treatment,� he said. “The specialist was able to see her X-ray in perfect detail on his iPhone, decide what needed to be done, treat her injury, book the surgery and she was back home four hours after the accident. “This will make a huge difference to the diagnosis and treatment of patients, particularly in regional, rural and remote areas of Australia.� Dr Chee Keong Chan of Gateway Plaza Family Medical Practice said the app allowed him to inspect high-resolution images any time, anywhere. “With the high resolution display on my iPad, the image quality of X-rays, CT scans and MRIs is impressive and comparable to desktop versions,� Dr Chan said. “It is also a useful tool in patient education and explaining the results via my iPad�.

Return to park ‘success’ for Queenscliff festival BY MICHELLE HERBISON QUEENSCLIFF Music Festival will remain in Princess Park after successfully moving from JL Jordan reserve, according to organisers. Director Michael Carrucan
said November’s festival was more successful than expected despite heavy rain on the Saturday. Attendance increased 21 per cent and ticket sales reached 8046, according to a council report. Mr Carrucan said patron sur-
veys received positive feedback on the new location. “It just seemed a nicer area and had a little bit of room to grow the festival with a little bit less impact on the town overall. With the orientation we could also project the sound mostly
out to sea. “We had a couple of complaints but you’re going to get complaints wherever you are.” The festival began at Princess Park in 1997 before moving to JL Reserve near the town’s train station until 2010.

BY MICHELLE HERBISON A STATE-OF-THE-ART shellfish hatchery at Queenscliff has sparked a Victorian mussel industry resurgence, according to State Government. Agriculture and Food Security Minister Peter Walsh said the facility helped the state’s mussel production grow 68 per cent to 951 tonnes in 2010/2011 year. Mr Walsh said a falling population of wild mussels was a “major obstacle” for the industry when the hatchery opened in 2008. “An unreliable supply of wild juvenile mussels had been threatening the viability of the Victorian mussel sector until a joint effort by mussel growers and Fisheries Victoria saw the hatchery established at Queenscliff,” he said. Mr Walsh expected the increase in production to improve further next year. Victoria’s total aquaculture industry, including trout, oysters, scallops and ocean fish, increased production 27 per cent last year, he said. Portarlington mussel farmer Lance Wiffen said his company had more than doubled production in the past few years. “Four or five years ago we were unable to fill our farms up with mussels and supply the markets we’d been building for the previous 10 to 15 years.

Lobby ‘spend doubt’ BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN GEELONG’S council could reap a better return from its spending on two lobby groups, according to a former mayor. Cr Bruce Harwood questioned the effectiveness of both groups after council renewed its financial commitments to them. “There’s too much talk and not enough action. Too many glossy brochures, not enough rubber on the road,” Cr Harwood said. The mayors of the region’s five councils signed a four-year agreement last Friday to continue funding G21 Regional Alliance. Geelong’s council agreed in March to maintain its $22,000 membership of Committee for Geelong. Geelong council will provide G21 with funding of $403,000, based on its 75 per cent share of the region’s population. The contribution rises to $453,000 in the fourth year of the new agreement. Cr Harwood said the next council, to be elected in October, could revoke its G21 membership with a year’s notice. “Not only is the City the major funding body but also far and away the largest resource provider. Our senior management, officers and councillors are engaged in almost all the pillars of G21, which is a cost also borne by the City.” Cr Harwood said a streamlined panel of regional experts advising council would have greater efficiency and effectiveness. “Panel representatives would have the capacity to speak on behalf of their respective industries. “I’m sure there’ll be people who won’t be happy about this idea but it would reduce the time it’s taking us to get…firm ideas and commitments to Spring St and Canberra.”

PUBLIC MEETING NOTICE OF COUNCIL MEETING The next meeting of the Greater Geelong City Council will be held at the Council Conference and Reception Centre, City Hall, Little Malop Street entrance, Geelong on Tuesday 8 May commencing at 7.00pm. Details of issues to be considered will be available on the City’s website www.geelongaustralia.com.au
Turbine seeking subsidies “The Eco Whisper turbine is a great product but falls in the area between subsidies offered to households and the larger wind farm facilities,” he said. “I’ll be advocating to my parliamentary colleagues for this Australianowned-and-developed technology. If we can cut red tape or provide targeted assistance to small manufacturers it will hopefully help companies such as Austeng employ more Geelong workers.” Mr O’Brien said the project would create green jobs in the region. Austeng had Victorian orders for turbines and national and overseas sales were “on the cards”, he said.
BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN AN INNOVATIVE Geelong-made wind turbine falls outside government green subsidies, according to its designer and manufacturer. Austeng’s Lyn George hoped the revolutionary design could qualify for the subsidies after the company bought a minor shareholding in the Renewable Energy Solutions Australia Eco Whisper turbine. “We’re putting our money where our mouth is because it’s creating a huge amount of interest,” Ms George said. Member for Western Victoria David O’Brien pledged to go into bat for the turbine.

Storages near 80% after average April
MOST of the Geelong urban area and the Bellarine Peninsula received average to above-average rain in April. The Breakwater Racecourse weather station recorded the long-term average amount of 45.4mm, which is derived from readings over many years at the former Geelong Airport site. In contrast, most of the Otway Ranges, Golden Plains and Moorabool catchments were below average. Despite this, the storages remain at 79 per cent of capacity. This is on a par with last year and is a comforting situation for the region. Weather enthusiasts will be disappointed to learn the old Weeaproinah site in the Otways is no more after 111 years of operation. New property owners have closed down the station on the retirement of Frank Minchinton and the Bureau of Meteorology has as yet to provide resources for an automatic sta-
Under the weather LINDSAY SMAIL tion near the old site. Geelong Weather Services will attempt to include monthly figures from Beech Forest, Johanna Heights and Lavers Hill for comparisons. The nearby station at Wyelangta still operates but figures are only posted several months later. April’s average daily temperatures were around .7C warmer than the long-term average, given the
recent site change. The average daily minimum was 10.6C and the maximum 21.7C. This compares with 9.5C and 20.2C respectively for the airport averages. Factoring in the potentially misleading difference made by Geelong’s urban heat island effect, the overall result was a generally warmer April. One day was over 30C, on April 6 when the temperature reached 31.8C. The coldest day was April 24, with a maximum of 14.6C. The lowest overnight temperature dropped to 5.2C degrees on April 30. Three thunder days were recorded, on April 2, 22 and 23, while a severe storm lashed the region on April 6, the first for the year. The storm had wind gusts up to 76km/h at Breakwater, with some structural damage and fallen trees reported.
Paul to weather next charity ride BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN GEELONG cycling enthusiast Paul Beretta hopes for good weather when he embarks on a 1600km charity ride this week. Mr Beretta will act as chief mechanic for Tour de Cure’s 90 cyclists, including his television presenter brother Mark. The event, in south-east Queensland, aims to raise $2 million for cancer research. Mr Beretta survived “atrocious” weather in a recent inaugural Country Kids Tour from Geelong to Warrnambool as a training ride for the main fundraiser. “The Country Kid’s Tour was set up to bring the cancer awareness and prevention message to country kids,” Mr Beretta said. “We visited primary schools and did presentations about being fit, healthy and happy, dispelling

Classic vintage: Western District Historic Vehicle Club’s Norm Lehmann and Ray Van Galen promote next weekend’s swap meet. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 80197
Heritage revs up motor club YOU DON’T have to own a heritage car to be a member of Western District Historic Vehicle Club – but it helps. According to the club’s newsletter editor, Neil Remeeus, nonvehicular members often acquire a set of wheels along the way. That’s because all the club’s 270 members are passionate about older cars – after all, their motto is ‘Enthusiasm, for enthusiasm’s sake’. “People may join because they used to own an historic vehicle or are looking to buy one,� Neil said. “Usually there’s someone who puts a car up for sale. It’s a way of giving new life to older vehicles time and again.� Neil was at a loss to explain the mystique and attraction of historic and older vehicles. “You’ve either got oil in your blood or you don’t,� he surmised. “You’ve got to have an automotive interest to start with. “But I do know that once you start you don’t seem to be able to
Join the club JOHN VAN KLAVEREN stop.� Neil said some members fully restored their cars while others were completely original. “Most of the marques owned by members are Ford, Chevrolet and Dodge but there’s a wide variety of cars,� he said. “I can’t even fit all the logos on the front page of the newsletter.� Neil emphasised that Western District Historic Vehicle Club was not a car club but a vehicle club catering for historic and special interest vehicles of all types and ages. “It doesn’t necessarily mean
they have to have four wheels.� The club adds colour and interest to events like local town festivals and fairs and major City of Geelong events such as Festival of Sails and Gala Day. The club has regular weekend runs and rallies as well as visits to aged care facilities. “Whenever we turn up at somewhere like the McKellar Centre there’s always lots of reminiscing with the older residents,� Neil chuckled. The club’s home is Geelong Showgrounds in an area set aside for a display of restored vehiclerelated artefacts. The club’s major event is its Bay City Swap at the showgrounds from 7am on May 12. Entry costs $5. The meet offers a variety of stalls catering for all interests, especially vehicle related. Neil said more information was available on the club’s website at wdhvcgeelong.com.au.

MARK Ruseler’s comments (Letters, April 20) were welcome but many statistics are rubbery indeed. He might be well-reminded that the internet and other avenues are great sources of information for verifying facts. The generally-accepted definition is that someone is employed if they work one to two hours a week. Whether the jobs are full-time is often unstated. We have seen many jobs go lately, and many more losses announced, so the picture cannot be that rosy, especially in Geelong. As far as ratings agencies are concerned, you get what you pay for. To accept a business-as-usual approach to public or private funds and assets is ludicrous but nevertheless continues. The “$100 million a day” of debt I referred to was first disclosed by Barnaby Joyce who I contacted personally, and received relevant links to the Treasury website. After further confirmation via Tony Abbott’s statement I included that information in my letter. Perhaps Mr Ruseler might see fit to confirm his information personally, like I did.

BARWON Water’s need to further hit customers with an additional increase in charges (Independent, April 27) is a direct consequence of former Brumby Labor Government mismanagement. Customers have seen their water accounts increase an average 10.75 per cent for the past four years and now a further increase of 13.5 per cent this year. This is due to the failed policy settings of the former government’s water minister, Tim Holding, who tried to force Victorians to pay for a needless statewide water grid. The additional increase is needed to start repaying the Melbourne-Geelong interconnector even though it was recognised well before its construction it would never to be needed. Again, this was imposed on Barwon Water’s customers by Labor to offset the cost of the wasteful and disastrously expensive desalination plant at Wonthaggi. I have been advised that the new water board, now in the final phase of bolting down the next fiveyear water plan, will see these earlier increases more than halved in the future. Water is a critical essential service for any community but the outrageous instructions from the previous Labor government to the then-water board did not reflect the capacity of the Geelong region and Barwon Water’s customers to pay these unsustainable annual increases. While the former Brumby Government forced these increases on water users, the Baillieu Government is restoring confidence and autonomy at Barwon Water so it can manage its business without government intervention from Spring Street.

IN RESPONSE to K Reiter’s letter in last week’s Independent, I write to support Cr John Doull’s push to restore the ancient Indented Head Hall. It is true the hall is on Crown Land and managed on behalf of the community by Bellarine Bayside. However, all of Indented Head’s community facilities and public open space are on the foreshore. This is in contrast to St Leonards and Portarlington where facilities are spread across both the foreshore and council land. In this context it is most appropriate for City of Greater Geelong to contribute to the development of community facilities for its towns regardless of where facilities are situated. Let’s work together as communities to get things moving with our councillor. To use Anzac Day and the loss of lives on battlefields to attack an elected councillor who wants to improve a community facility for existing and future generations was below par and, in my view, warrants an apology. John Bugge Portarlington

An appetite for Destruktor
Blackout: Death metal band Destruktor plays a rare Geelong gig next week.
“no turning back” to a softer style. “I started listening to glam metal like Guns N’ Roses when I was about 10. “I then started listening to hard rock metal and my music tastes got heavier from there.” Lynch said Destruktor rarely performed locally despite basing itself in Geelong. “We only play in Geelong about once a year. That’s the nature of the (metal music) beast.” However, the band had played at metal music festivals Australia-wide and supported several big-name acts. “We supported Swedish metal band Dismember and Krisiun from Brazil when they did their last Australian tours,” Lynch said. He expected Destruktor would tour Europe next year depending on the success of Australian gigs. “We’ve got people in places like Germany and Chile who have a strong interest in our music,” Lynch said. “It would be great to be able to meet those fans.” Lynch considered playing music from the band’s latest album, Nailed, to New Zealand audiences last year as a career highlight. Lynch said the Geelong gig at the National Hotel on May 12 would be a chance to play a few new songs to prepare for Sydney’s Evil Invaders IV festival. Other metal bands on the Geelong bill include Thrall, Desecrator and Ignivomous.

BY CHERIE DONNELLAN “IN YOUR face” is how lead singer Glenn Lynch describes his death metal band, Destruktor. He promised the band would impress Geelong’s underground music scene fans with a “no-holds-barred” performance in the city this month. “We’re pretty lively on stage, to say the least,” Lynch said. “We push ourselves through the intensity of the music. “We’re probably one of the most extreme three-piece metal bands in Australia.” Lynch warned that the band’s music was not for the faint-hearted. “We sing about heavy themes like death and war.” Lynch said the niche market for death metal had sent the band through many changes over the past decade and a half. Destruktor formed in Bendigo in 1997 but relocated to Geelong 10 years later, he said. Lynch was still its frontman, while its bass player was now Brad Ollis and Jahred Mawdsley was on drums. Ollis, who hails from Geelong, played some “punishing bass”, Lynch said, while Mawdsley’s drumming was so intense it must “be seen to be believed”. “Jahred’s an amazing drummer. He’s been asked to play in so many bands but he’s remained loyal to Destruktor”. Lunch described his introduction to metal as a progressive process with

Brioche building ewtown’s Cafe Brioche is building a loyal following seeking value for money and great coffee. Based at 175 West Fyans St, the café has a private dining room that can seat 16, perfect for a small meeting or just a lunch gathering with friends. Proprietor David Pollitt says Café Brioche can arrange seating to make tables to suit particular group sizes. Café Brioche’s opening hours will extend over winter to 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Friday. “Why queue up on the way to work wasting money on petrol
N
when you can park easily outside the cafe, pick up a coffee and be on your way or stay to try one of the many cakes or slices prepared on the premises,” David suggests. “Our award-winning coffee is roasted locally at Capra Coffee, on Fyans St.” Café Brioche cafe can be booked for private evening functions any day of the week, with menus tailored to clients’ budgets. The café also accommodates Brioche catering services, available for functions across the region. David is happy to arrange meetings for discussing individual
requirements by emailing him on david@brioche.com.au. In January Brioche took over management of The Teahouse, at Geelong Botanical Gardens. A new menu is available at The Teahouse during autumn and winter. Tables inside seat a maximum of 12 guests, while gas heaters are available outside. David says The Teahouse is open 9.30am to 4pm “during the cooler months”. Customers can make enquiries and bookings by phoning 4208 0441.

vaporative air-conditioners provide a cool flow of air during summer but end up letting plenty of heat escape through vents in winter. Powerfect Heatsaver can help Geelong residents make huge cost savings and reduce their environmental impact. A simple installation of Heatsaver outlet covers will reduce heat loss through evaporative cooler vents by 20 per cent, according to http://scinergy .com.au. Richard Rothengatter from Powerfect, Heatsavers’ Victorian agent with 10 years in the electrical business, says trying to close
E
air-conditioning vents for winter is usually difficult and ineffective. Heatsavers are simple covers that clip onto vents magnetically, simply and efficiently, saving time and ensuring comfort. After a simple initial installation they can be put into position and removed at the end of winter to store ready for next year. Richard and Heatsavers business partner Ian Chapple advise that anyone even “semi-handy” can install the covers themselves following simple instructions included with purchases. Heatsavers came to Victoria thanks to Ian, Richard’s long-time
friend who discovered the covers’ success after their installation in his daughter’s New South Wales home. “The result was a significant saving in their heating bill for the remainder of that year,” Ian says. Last year Ian and Richard banded together to bring Heatsavers to Geelong and Victoria. Many Geelong residents who had Heatsavers installed last year found they had cost savings from reduced energy use, while rooms heated faster. More information about Heatsavers is available by phoning Ian on 0459 700 055 or Richard on 0414 737 333.

Get creative to give mum a little surprise on Mother’s Day.
Day to remember LIFESTYLE 4 U B
The region has a wealth of quality cafes and restaurants that will be open for business on Mother’s Day. Make a booking – not too early – and make it soon to avoid the rush. Check out all the venues advertising in this week’s Independent. Surely there’s an eatery with a great menu for the morning of Sunday, May 13. Now don’t just stop at breakfast. Take a little time out with mum. She’s a busy woman, so think how she likes to while away her free time. Movies? Shopping? Entertainment? It’s all available close to home on Mother’s Day
this year. And a little creativity would help in the gift department. Sure, traditions like flowers should be maintained but a little added extra won’t go astray. Think of gifts that complement her lifestyle. Sports, hobbies, personal interests; she’s a real woman with a real life. Think of something she really likes or needs, not what her kids would like to see her with. Yes, we’re ruling out frying pans and irons here! A little creativity, a little effort and a little outlay can make a memorable Mother’s Day. It’s what mums deserve.
W e have something beautiful for every mum this Mother’s Day 1032031-JF18-12
reakfast in bed, a card, flowers, champagne. Maybe some chocolates for good measure. Mother’s Day often ends up like the jocks-and-socks routine of its counterpart for fathers. Same old “surprises”, same old day. Mums deserve more. Mums deserve a break from easy-wayout traditions. And in the Geelong region, plenty of inspiration is all around for a Mother’s Day to surprise any mum. For a start, try breakfast actually away from the house. Most mums spend plenty of time there already.

s Geelong is expanding, so is The Weight Works. The business now has offices at Leopold, Geelong West, Norlane and in the Grovedale/Marshall area to service growing demand. The Weight Works’ personal food coaches have been teaching clients across Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula for the past eight yeas to utilise and choose better food. Winter is coming but cold weather has arrived, bringing with it the desire for hot foods. To avoid coming out of winter with a spare tyre around the girth we need to eat foods low in energy yet warming and sustaining, such as vegetables. Vegetables are versatile. Hearty, thick soups, stir fries and vegetable casseroles using vegetables as the bulk of the recipe along with dried or fresh herbs and spices can help keep anyone satisfied despite being low in energy.

now available from Geelong’s TintMaster in Gordon Avenue intMaster now offers a pick-up-and-delivery service for customers installing its new wonder product, Ultra Carbon. TintMaster’s Dave Kershaw says Ultra Carbon is the next generation in car window tint. “And if you’re too busy, we’ll pick up your car, install the tint and deliver your vehicle back to you. “It’s just part of the great service to Geelong and suburbs that we offer at TintMaster. “Our experienced and highly qualified tint technicians will professionally install Ultra Carbon on your car in our modern, purpose-built workshop.” Dave says Ultra Carbon offers enhanced appearance, performance and protection unmatched by any other product. Its non-metal, nano-hybrid carbon technology combines the popular low-reflective black-type finish of conventional carbon films with superior infrared heat and UV rejection only previously possible with metallic films. Dave says Ultra Carbon provides exceptional optical clarity together with signal-enabling technology eliminating interference for mobile phone, radio and GPS operation. Ultra Carbon also comes with a full lifetime warranty. The TintMaster range includes almost-clear films for drivers preferring a lighter window that still keeps out heat and UV rays. “When you want the best look for your car, the best protection for your family and the best value for money, see TintMaster,” Dave says. TintMaster is at 9 Gordon Avenue, Geelong West. For more information phone TintMaster on 5221 8877.

In control: Buyers of this type of wagon are looking for a high driving position. you want to accelerate hard it puts out a deep growl to let you know it’s providing you with the performance you need. Diesel consumption is normally in the eight to nine litres per hundred kilometres bracket in country and motorway driving, and will tend to sit at about 10 to 12 litres per hundred when working around town. Part of this impressively low fuel consumption is a stop-start system; this switches off the engine when the Q7 comes to a standstill and restarts it when the driver releases the brake pedal. This can make for significant fuel savings and emission reductions in heavy traffic conditions, where vehicles are at their most damaging. A key feature of the improved efficiency is the introduction of a new eight-speed automatic transmission that lowers fuel consumption by about five percent. Audi Q7 isn’t a vehicle for everyone, but if you routinely carry more than three passengers and want to give them a real taste of luxury, and would like to enjoy some light to moderate off-road exploring then this may be just the SUV you need.

BY ERIC BLAIR he Audi Q7 is a large SUV that was primarily designed for the US market. It works well on the country roads in Australia where it makes a superb cruising machine that simply lopes along. Its sheer size gives it a voluminous interior that’s complemented by big comfortable seats. Indeed, the front bucket seats are almost like armchairs to ride in. Whereas the Porsche Cayenne and Volkswagen Touareg, which are related to the Audi in that they are based on the same floorpan, were designed from the outset to be efficient in offroad operation, Audi has concentrated on making this vehicle a superlative handler on-road. But Audi hasn’t neglected off-road abilities. The permanent four-wheel drive is the first major step. The torque split via a central Torsen differential is 40 per cent to the front, 60 per cent to the rear which, combined with a near50/50 front to rear weight distribution, gives it superb handling balance on both sealed and unsealed roads. The adjustable suspension has settings to increase the ride height for genuine off-road conditions, as well as dynamic settings to improve handling. Due to the harsh global economic climate during the design stages of the 2011 Audi Q7, the German company sensibly put its efforts into mechanical changes rather than aesthetic ones. So the changes centred around lowering fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. This big-grunt engine is a delight to sit behind, with all that torque moving the big Audi Q7 along with a minimum of fuss. It’s smooth, quiet and more responsive than the average turbo-diesel due to using the latest in turbo technology. When cruising the engine is all but inaudible and when

sport Saints to skin Cats at Lara ROUND four of Geelong Football League presents a lop-sided group of games, with the top sides set to take on the bottom teams. One game that will be closer than most is at Lara where the Cats host St Mary’s. Both sides have registered two wins for the year and both lost last weekend. The Cats battled against reigning premier Bell Park but showed good signs with Sam Allan, Kane Smith and Jack Hollmer playing well. St Mary’s only just got beaten by Leopold, which want’s so bad because Leopold’s much improved this year and destined to play finals. David Clarke, Andrew Baars and Tim McClean are leading the Saints side well and the rest are following. Both sides know victory this weekend is vital to their finals hopes and will give it everything but St Mary’s will take the points. Other selections: Colac v SOUTH BARWON, ST JOSEPH’S v St Alban’s, BELL PARK v Grovedale, LEOPOLD v North Shore, West Saints v NEWTOWN.
Local Footy FRANK MASON
BFL Torquay makes the short journey down the Great Ocean Road on Saturday to take on arch rival Anglesea in Bellarine Football League’s game of the day. The Tigers have had a great start for new coaches Craig McCaughan and Mick MacFarlane, with an unblemished record putting them second on the ladder. Scott Hughes leads the league goal-kicking table and Matthew Boag is third, indicating the side’s strong scoring ability. Anglesea started the year like a house on fire but
was bought back to earth last weekend the Roos lost to Queenscliff by a thumping 83 points. The week before the Roos beat Portarlington by 187 points. That’s a 270-point turnaround and indicates a worrying difference in standard between the top and bottom sides in the league. The Roos battle against the better sides and this will again be the case, with this year’s strong Torquay side to win well. Other selections: Drysdale v AMATEURS, QUEENSCLIFF v Portarlington, Barwon Heads v OCEAN GROVE, MODEWARRE v Newcomb.
GDFL Geelong and District Football League has the most evenly matched game in the region this weekend, with East Geelong playing Bell Post Hill at Myers Reserve. These two played off in last year’s grand final and are evenly matched all over the ground. Cam Addie, Chris Moreland and Shaun Lewis can be relied upon to give the Panthers drive around the
packs and if Justin Tarr can get his hands on the ball in front of goal then the home side will be hard to stop. East Geelong is a work in progress, with recruits Jayke and Jesse Mawson coming to grips with their teammates and league’s style of play. They will only get better and, with class acts in Lucas Murphy and Ryan Closter giving direction, the result will be good. The Panthers were narrowly beaten last week after playing a barnstorming last quarter to almost steal the game from Thomson. That never-say-die attitude has helped them to the past two premierships and always comes in handy. East have always thought it had the side to win the past two premierships after its triumph in 2009, which makes the rivalry between the sides even stronger. Expect Bell Post Hill to sneak over the line. Other selections: BELMONT LIONS v Inverleigh, WERRIBEE CENTRALS v Corio, NORTH GEELONG v Geelong West, BANNOCKBURN v Anakie, Winchelsea v THOMSON.
Redfin on the double at lakes, with trout also about on Powerbait
BRIAN LONG REDFIN have become one of the region’s most keenly sought species in the past two months, with Lismore’s Lake Tooliorook continuing to fire in the past week. The redfin have been so thick that numbers can be caught in a short time once located, Matt Mooney discovered just how ravenous these fish can be when he landed a pair of nice redfin on the one lure. Paul Jenkins trolled the lake with mate Garry Holt, catching in excess of 100 fish and releasing all but a dozen for a feed. The boys found small Stumpjumper lures ideal. Lake Tooliorook also rewarded anglers chasing trout. Fishing Powerbait on a running sinker rig has produced fish over 2kg, with anglers wading well out and casting as far as possible enjoying the best results. Nearby, Deep Lake also returned reasonable numbers of trout. Powerbait was again best but lure casters started to see their results improving from the deeper southern shore on small bibbed lures such as SX 40s, Rapala X Raps and Dorados. Access to Lake Bullen Merri remained restricted but shore-based anglers caught a few nice trout, some better than 2kg. Powerbait and live minnow were the baits, while anglers who trolled gold coloured Tassie Devils on downriggers found the fish 8m to 10m down. Lake Purrumbete produced mostly smaller trout along with reasonable numbers of redfin. However, as always this water seems to produce the biggest fish, with two trout better than 3kg
Turbo
Above: Peter Murphy with a 60cm fish caught during Lake Mulwala’s Cod Nationals. Right: Matt Mooney with his two redfin on one lure. caught in the past fortnight. Ballarat’s Lake Wendouree remained a fantastic option. Most of the trout have beem under 1kg but in good numbers on fly, lure and bait. Joel Harrison fished Pykes Reservoir where small redfin dominated. He finished with six redfin around 600g and a trout of 1.2kg, using live minnow. Anyone seeking fun on carp should try Fyans Park, on the Barwon River, with bread or corn baits fished unweighted. The best reports have been coming from anglers fishing through the middle of the day.
Surf anglers had to contend with huge seas and big tides last weekend, so the limited safe rock platforms at Artillery Rock were a hot spot. Salmon, trevally and barracouta were caught by a lone lure caster positioned here. This weekend’s late afternoon low tides should suit both Fairhaven and Eastern View. Providing the water is clean, fish lures along any of the deeper gutters. The past week’s weather also made fishing offshore for bluefin tuna difficult. Paul Hunter drifted the Stingaree Bay Spoil

On the bite
grounds for a nice bag of rock flathead and snapper on soft plastics. His best flathead was 61cm and his biggest snapper weighed 2.2kg. Snapper reports became limited but a hardy few putting in a few hours on the inner-harbour caught some quality fish. Gary Porter fished the anchorage directly out from the silos piers and landed two nice fish, one of 3.1kg the other 3.9kg and both on fresh pilchard. Xavier St John fished from the rocks at North Shore late on Monday to catch a 3.4kg fish as well as a nice ling of 1.3kg. However, any number of tuna from 8kg to 16kg have been taken when conditions have allowed. Small lures have been required, with the traditionally larger models failing to produce results. Aaron Ball fished inside Swan Bay this week for gummy shark, which was good choice because he landed two over 8kg. Aaron used cured eel, with the bite occuring just on dark. Whiting continued to caught in numbers from St Leonards to Queenscliff. Fresh squid and pippies were the baits, with the morning tides the most productive. Point Lillias has produced whiting but generally between 30cm and 33cm. Peter Murphy returned from the cod nationals competition at Lake Mulwala to report the fishing was less than red hot. Cod were still caught, with many just on size. Spinnerbaits and deep-diving minnow lures were the best choice. This weekend’s best bet should be either Deep Lake or Lake Tooliorook. Land-based anglers should fish Powerbait for trout, while boaties would be advised to troll with deep-diving minnow-pattern lures for the abundant redfin. Surf anglers should find salmon in clean water along any of our major beaches Send reports and photos to info@raylongtackle.com.au or visit Brian at Ray Long’s Fishing World, 105 Shannon Ave, Manifold Heights.
