Police have called on residents to help them locate Melton’s ‘most wanted’ offenders. Star Weekly Weekly, in partnership with Victoria Police, today launched a new series calling on residents to help police clean up the streets. Melton’s Most Wanted will be a regular feature in our print edition. It will also be posted on Melton & Moorabool Star Weekly’s Facebook page and online at www. starweekly.com.au Victoria Police Inspector Dave Byrt said everyone can, and should, contribute to community safety. “The community are our eyes and ears, and our success in this regard depends on community participation,” he said. “I would encourage everyone to closely follow Melton’s Most Wanted and Star Weekly, and contact Crime Stoppers if they have any information concerning these persons of interest.” Star Weekly’s editor-in-chief Stephen Linnell said it is important the whole community get behind Melton police. “Our police do a fantastic job. But they need the community to help them,” he said. “This initiative will hopefully result in offenders being tracked down, caught and dealt with by the courts. “We urge the community to share our Facebook posts and the images in print and online, to help our police.” Anyone with information on the whereabouts of these offenders should contact Crime Stoppers or local police.

Community cash splash By Sumeyya Ilanbey Melton council has received more than $4 million in state government funding to upgrade community facilities. Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins announced on Saturday that five projects had been given a funding boost as part of the Growing Suburbs Fund. The funding includes: • $2.5 million for the expansion of the Caroline Springs Leisure Centre; • $1 million for the second stage of the Burnside Multipurpose Community Centre;

• $500,000 towards the construction of a new scout adventure activity centre at the Burnside Heights Recreation Reserve; • $190,000 for the Melton Botanic Trail that will connect the Melton Botanic Gardens to the Toolern Creek Trail; and • $194,000 for upgrades to Kenswick Drive Reserve, including seating, shelter, playgrounds, trees and landscaping. A state government spokesman said most of the Melton projects funded this year were in the town’s eastern corridor. The Melton township received more than $6.3 million last year. Melton mayor Sophie Ramsey said the

funding would go a long way in supporting the fast-growing municipality. “Council works hard to provide the kinds of services and spaces that a growing community requires,” she said. “We can’t do this on our own and we’re really grateful to the state government.” Even happier – and more emotional – was Caroline Springs Scout group leader Claire Mouser, who has been waiting more than six years for a dedicated scout facility. Ms Mouser said the group was currently meeting in an old and small facility in Brimbank, with members travelling up to

15 kilometres out of the area for scouting activities. “It’s been a six-year battle to find a facility in Caroline Springs,” Ms Mouser said. “A lot of our kids are disadvantaged and special needs kids … they need somewhere to fit in. We’re just thrilled and glad of council’s support, as well as the state government’s support.” Construction on the $1.75 million facility is expected to start next year after Scouts Victoria announced $1 million in funding for the building. Melton council will contribute $250,000.

Crossing, bridge works sped up By Ben Cameron It will be full steam ahead in the new year for Brimbank commuters with the Caroline Springs train station set to open and works starting in Sydenham to remove one of the state’s worst level crossings. Works to remove the Melton Highway level crossing will begin in February. Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan announced on Sunday that BMD Constructions will build the road bridge over the Sunbury line. Star Weekly revealed in September that

road-over-rail was the only option being considered for the $46 million project. Works will also widen Melton Highway to three lanes, improving traffic flow and reducing congestion for the 38,000 vehicles that use it every day. The crossing was originally scheduled to be removed by early 2019 but will now be completed by late 2018. The level crossing is one the state’s worst, with boom gates down for nearly a quarter of the morning peak. It is one of three – along with Main and

Furlong road crossings in St Albans – which Brimbank council had lobbied the state government to remove simultaneously. Work on the St Albans crossings has already started. Ms Allan said the Sydenham crossing removal would “pave the way for a massive job-creating expansion of Watergardens Town Centre”. The design includes a new two-way slip lane on the northern side of the highway, with a signalised intersection at Overton Lea Boulevard.

Sydenham MP Natalie Hutchins said the project included cycling and walking paths and new community open space. Meanwhile, it’s been revealed that the new Caroline Springs station will open in January. The V/Line timetable has also been expanded with 10 new services each week on the Bendigo and Ballarat lines. The new timetable will be available to download from November 28. Timetable updates will be added to PTV’s Journey Planner and PTV app on January 5.

Homegrown talent finds its audience Talented VCE students in Melton are exhibiting their artworks at the Caroline Springs Gallery until the end of this month. Up to three artworks from each of Lakeview Senior, Catholic Regional, Melton Christian, Kurunjang Secondary, Staughton and Gilson colleges will be on display for all to admire. Melton mayor Sophie Ramsey said the show was an opportunity for residents to discover the

calibre of the schools’ young artists in “our own backyard”. “This unique exhibition is a celebration of the quality and diversity of the creative talents of the next generation of artists who live and study in Melton,” Cr Ramsey said. “I encourage everyone to take the time to experience this wonderful and inspiring exhibition and acknowledge the achievements of some of our finest, homegrown artists.”

The displayed works include studio art, graphic design, sculpture, media and product design, and technology. The exhibition at 193 Caroline Springs Boulevard will run until Wednesday, November 30. For more information, visit melton.vic.gov.au or facebook.com/imaginemelton Sumeyya Ilanbey

Terrified onlookers witnessed frightening scenes outside Macs Hotel earlier this month when 30 people were caught up in a brawl. Inspector Ian Geddes said two men, a 27-year-old and a 22-year-old, were arrested and are expected to be charged on summons with assault. He said about 10 people were involved in a fight which broke out inside the hotel about 5.30pm on November 13. About 30 people then became involved in “smaller fights” as the fracas spilled outside. Eight police units attended, including 16 officers. The fight lasted a couple of minutes inside the hotel and about 10 minutes outside. A witness, who wanted to remain anonymous, said she feared for her life as people brawled inside the hotel. She described the scenes as “chaotic”, and said staff told patrons not to go outside during the brawl. “It was an all-in brawl,” she said. “I was hoping I didn’t get a bottle in my head or a chair thrown at me. I thought we could get really injured. “There were families with children as well.” The witness said she was angry there weren’t any security guards at the hotel to break up the fight and intervene. Macs Hotel and parent company Australian Leisure and Hospitality Group were contacted. ALH Group spokesman David Curry said the company would not be making any comments. Sumeyya Ilanbey

‘Vigilante’ jailed for murder By Sumeyya Ilanbey An ice-affected Bacchus Marsh ‘vigilante’ who stabbed a man 21 times over suspicions he had burgled his house, has been sentenced to 19 years behind bars. Daniel Parry, 37, pleaded guilty in the Supreme Court to murdering Garry Coulson in July last year. Parry told police Mr Coulson had stolen “heaps of stuff” during a burglary on June 25 last year, including televisions, laptops and an iPad … but he didn’t have any evidence to back his claims.

The court heard Parry started looking for Mr Coulson on July 5, and enlisted the help of a friend to confront Mr Coulson. Later that day, Parry and three accomplices arrived at Mr Coulson’s Werribee home where Mr Coulson and his girlfriend were sleeping. “[The girlfriend] woke to a ‘tinging’ sound and saw two males in the bedroom, both wearing dark clothing with hoodies pulled down over their faces,” the prosecution submitted. “[The girlfriend] saw you striking Coulson with the baseball bat. [She] saw the second male standing behind you in the doorway. A

knife was produced. You stabbed Coulson with a knife several times.” Mr Coulson was alive when paramedics arrived, but died en route to hospital. The court heard he had 21 stab wounds, including wounds beneath his jaw and upper neck, his chest and abdomen. Parry handed himself to police on July 6. He told detectives about the violent confrontation in a statement tendered in court claiming he and Mr Coulson exchanged words and a fight broke out. “He got up out of bed and I, I looked and he, he had a knife in his hand and, yeah, we’ve

struggled over the knife, and so I don’t really know what happened.” Supreme Court Judge Christopher William said he believed Parry did not go to Mr Coulson’s house with “murderous” intent, but he was: “satisfied by the evidence and by your plea, that you stabbed Coulson deliberately, repeatedly ”. “You went armed [to Coulson’s home] with a baseball bat. You were affected/disinhibited by ice when you barged into his bedroom … you decided to take the law into your own hands … you acted as a vigilante, with all the risks that entails.”

Dingo has a job to do Pure bred dingoes have a vital role in eradicating feral pests and protecting native wildlife on the brink of extinction, the threatened species commissioner said during a visit to Toolern Vale last week. Gregory Andrews was meeting Lyn Watson, founder of the Dingo Discovery Sanctuary and Research Centre in Toolern Vale, to discuss how dingoes could be used in healthy Australian ecosystems. Mr Andrews has ambitious targets of culling two million feral cats by 2020, establishing five feral-free islands and 10 large feral predator-proofed areas. Dingoes form a big part of that plan – dingoes have been known to urinate on bilby burrows, which keeps away pests, such as cats and foxes. Mr Andrews said the dingo is unlikely to turn into a pest, like cane toads, wasps and rabbits, but their introduction needs to be

managed so farmers aren’t adversely impacted. Ms Watson said she was overwhelmed by the commissioner’s visit, which marks a first significant step in having the potential of dingoes recognised by authorities. “Dingoes mark their territories and, in their territories, if there are threatened species, mesopredators, such as cats and foxes, will keep away,” she said. “They only have to smell a dingo’s dung or urine and they’ll run away, because a dingo won’t tolerate foxes or cats in its territory.” Sumeyya Ilanbey

College crosses tryline The junior girls rugby team at Melton Secondary College is a force to be reckoned with. The 13-player team was formed only last year, but they’ve already smashed glass ceilings. They were crowned state champions in the Melbourne Storm Robbie Kearns Shield competition last year and finished second this year despite numerous setbacks. School sports co-ordinator Gerard Darcy said he was proud of the girls who were achieving outstanding things while having fun. “This year we couldn’t train as much, we

lost a few girls and it was a much stronger competition than last year,” Mr Darcy said. “But the girls fought hard and came runners-up. They were hoping to win, but to get second in the state is a wonderful achievement.” While still a relatively new sport at the school, rugby is quickly gaining a stronghold, Mr Darcy said. He said the school had some of the strongest rugby teams in the state, with seven students already having received rugby scholarships at sports schools. Sumeyya Ilanbey

Dark estate a burglar’s gift Not long after Adrian Abela set up shop in the Ballan Industrial Estate four years ago, his warehouse was broken into. Since then he’s installed security cameras around the perimeter of his Body Clinic Smash Repairs and managed to avoid any further damage, but his neighbours haven’t been so lucky. “Another mechanic three doors up the road has been broken into four or five times,” Mr Abela said. “The gentleman across the road has probably been broken into four or five times just this year.” Mr Abela blames the “pitch black” estate, where there aren’t any street lights, for the spate of break-ins and criminal activity. Fed up with the constant break-ins and theft, business owners wrote to Moorabool council in September requesting street lighting along Smallmans Road and Haddon Drive. At last week’s council meeting, officers recommended that the council refer the project to the ‘capital program’ for future funding, and ask property owners if they’d be happy to pay for the street lighting via a special charge scheme. But councillors unanimously voted in favour of an alternative motion, which suggested writing to all property owners within the estate advising council supported their request for street lighting and to fund it through the Central ward community

development fund. When contacted by Star Weekly, Mr Abela said that was the “best Weekly news he heard all day”. He said the estate was so dark after sunset it was like walking around with your eyes closed. Mr Abela was one of seven businesses to sign the original petition, which implored council to consider funding street lights in the estate.

‘‘

Perpetrators ... cut the security fencing in - petition sections

’’

A letter, attached to the petition, stated multiple owners had their businesses “continually” broken into with items of significant value stolen. “Terry Hodge, of Hodge Earthmoving at 18 Smallmans Road, has been broken into twice in the past two weeks, with perpetrators doing extensive damage by cutting the security fencing in sections to gain access to the property and removing multiple items ranging from $5000 to $100,” the letter states. “John, from Inair Custom Trailers of 36 Haddon Drive, reported in the past two days he has had his security fence cut, and approximately three months ago he was broken into, with welders, tools and other workshop items valued at between $70,000 and $80,000 stolen.”

Billy carts get kids moving Xavier and Dakota had a ball carting each other around … the St Dominic’s Primary School prep pupils – and 44 of their classmates – have been hard at work building nine billy carts, under some wise counsel from grandparent helper Russell Pettis, as part of their lessons on ‘movement’. Prep teacher Jessica O’Connor said Bunnings Melton donated money to purchase the parts needed for the billy carts, which will be raffled to raise funds for St Vincent’s Christmas appeal. Ms O’Connor said the pupils learned about working in a team, and all about how things move. “And now they can play with the billy carts in discovery time,” she said. Sumeyya Ilanbey

Migrants unaware of work rights By Sumeyya Ilanbey While working on a farm, ‘Joyce’ witnessed the “dark and uncivilised” side of Australia, one that exploited her and stripped away her basic employment rights. The worst part was not getting paid at all and not being able to complain to Fair Work Australia out of fear. Joyce’s (not her real name) story is highlighted in a new Western Community Legal Centre (WEstjustice) report that reveals the extent of exploitation of migrant and refugee workers. The problem is particularly rife in

Melbourne’s west, report author Catherine Hemingway said. The exploitation isn’t limited to the agriculture industry. Workers reported being underpaid in food processing, childcare, hospitality, security and manufacturing industries. “It is happening in big companies and small businesses; it’s a huge problem,” Ms Hemingway said. “Through our research we found 88 per cent of newly arrived community members didn’t understand Australian employment laws or understood just a little,” she said. “And that makes it really easy to get ripped off. If you don’t know what your rights are, how

are you going to challenge any exploitation?” Ms Hemingway said she hoped the report highlighted the widespread problem of exploitation and would improve employment outcomes for refugees, migrants, international students and temporary-visa holders. The report sets out 10 steps to prevent exploitation, including targeted education, increased accountability in labour hire, and strategic measures to protect vulnerable groups. Ms Hemingway said the report was part of a four-year, three-stage project, which involved training community leaders.

Neng Boi, of the Burmese Chin community, which has a significant population in Melton and Moorabool, said parts of her community were not aware of their legal rights. She said worker exploitation was a huge problem in her community, and she hoped she had been equipped with the skills to help combat the problem. “I learned there are many resources that we can get help from and so many places we can go,” Ms Boi said. “There are also so many things that I hadn’t heard about. I didn’t know we are entitled to extra pay on weekends and public holidays.”

Danny Colgan, Raeph Cumming and Azam Mahmood have taken a vow to stand up, speak out and act in the face of men’s violence against women. And the Moorabool council employees want others to do the same in the lead-up to White Ribbon Day. This male-led campaign is a chance to raise awareness about violence against women, and educate people about its social impacts. A council spokeswoman said council vehicles will display messages of support for White Ribbon Day in the lead-up to November 25, pledges will be made and the initiative will also feature at local sporting clubs.

I’ve been on council for 20 years. There have been major projects undertaken by the previous council and there’s an opportunity now to see some of those come to fruition. What skills do you have that will complement this council? I’ve been mayor twice so I have an understanding of how local government works. I think the critical thing is using the skills of all councillors. I use the analogy if you don’t use the skills of everyone, ‘it’s like a two-legged stool; it doesn’t work’. What are the pressing issues in your ward? The inability of some towns [such as Bungaree and Dunnstown] to grow, which is tied up with sewerage issues. Another issue is the dispersed populations in rural areas and being able to service those populations. And it’s the empowering of communities; council can only do so much.

I bring a degree of experience in regards to many committees and community groups I’ve been a part of. I’m experienced in business and have been on council 12 years. What are the pressing issues for your ward? It’s not so much about the ward; it’s the whole of Moorabool. We have tight budgets and a very large council area to look after – large road and footpath networks, a large number of community facilities spread through the shire. And a lot of issues with telecommunications and fire-risk management.

What skills do you have that will complement this council? I still don’t have an agenda; I have a broad view of what we should do. You need to walk with the people, not dance around them during election time. I understand we have a massive problem. We’re a lopsided shire and have ridiculous growth. We’ve done a lot of strategic work in the past four years and I want to make sure those things are followed through. What are the pressing issues facing your ward? I think the loss of Fiskville was outrageous, the fact [state governments and the CFA] didn’t respond to that quickly; 36 families of real people in a real place were moved along for all the wrong reasons. We’ve been neglected for so long and we’ve come so far in population that trying to bridge that gap is going to be difficult. And the third thing is bringing the people together. Ballan has a different demographic as it grows … but I want to make sure that it has its own identity and its own brand.

You never know when or where an emergency will strike, and David Axon knows it well. When the state government announced that the Melton Model Aircraft Association, of which Mr Axon is president, will be one of 150 clubs across the state to receive a defibrillator, he was relieved. Mr Axon says the club has many elderly members, some with cardiac problems. “There was a gentleman from another aircraft club … and his mates found him dead at the field,” he says. “He had had a heart attack. We really need a defibrillator for ensuring peace of

mind.” Mr Axon says the club can’t afford to purchase defibrillators, which can cost up to $3000. Melton MP Don Nardella said having a defibrillator on hand could mean players, parents and spectators could step in and take action until paramedics arrived. “When cardiac arrest strikes, there’s not a second to spare,” Mr Nardella said. “Early intervention greatly increases the likelihood of survival during cardiac arrest.” Sumeyya Ilanbey

An intruder was caught on camera trying to rob the Caroline Springs medical centre with two young children in tow. Police have released CCTV footage of a man, who had a boy and girl with him, breaking into Active Medical Centre, Caroline Springs Boulevard, about 6.30pm on Thursday, November 3. He’s seen on CCTV searching through drawers and breaking into a cash register, while the two children follow him around the reception and waiting area. Police say he didn’t steal anything. It’s believed the man had been in the medical centre about an hour earlier asking the receptionist about its opening hours. He then returned and gained entry via an internal door to an adjacent business. Senior Constable Paramjot Singh, of Melton police, said it was “very sad” to see the man’s behaviour. “He had two kids with him whilst he’s looking through the drawers,” Senior Constable Singh said. “It’s not setting up a good example for the children at all.” Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

When most people go on a holiday, they indulge in too much food, purchase overpriced souvenirs and just have a jolly good time … but not Chris Eggleston. The Bacchus Marsh CFA volunteer went on a swagging trip to Western Australia last month. He was refuelling his car at Mt Barnett station when he heard there was a major grassfire in the heart of Kimberley, in the country’s far north-west. The dry, dense scrubland fuelled the fire over several days, raging along a180 kilometre-long front. Mr Eggleston, who’s been a volunteer firefighter for the past 37 years, decided he’d help out the WA fireys. “There was nothing heroic about it,” Mr Eggleston insists. “There wasn’t any kicking doors or dragging people out. “But the stations up there don’t get a lot of support, or have a lot of resources, because they’re so isolated. “When I was at Mt Barnett, I happened to hear they were struggling and I offered them assistance.” Western Australia’s fire and emergency services department issued Mr Eggleston with a 24-hour casual firefighter registration. His first priority was to set up a series of water pumps from the river to protect the Mt Barnett station. He later teamed up with a local Aboriginal worker to spot attack burning embers and help with backburning. “The Kimberley fires don’t tend to crown like ours do, so there was just this really intense heat,” Mr Eggleston said. “One of the local tourist helicopters was brought up to give us some aerial oversight. From up in the air, this was one of the most

Patterson said. “He was thrown straight into the action in the Police Valley, where the fire was pushing hard on the breaks … we’d like to pass on our deep appreciation for what he did for us.”

MY PLACE Rick Biden is fascinated with history. So it was only fitting he joined the Ballan Shire Historical Society when he moved to Ballan 16 years ago. Now the society secretary, he speaks with Sumeyya Ilanbey. What’s your connection to Moorabool? I’m a new resident (laughs). We moved to Ballan from Werribee 16 years ago and my wife and I bought a five-acre property, built a house and retired here. I worked on a research fund for 30 years and was ready to resign or retire. There was an opportunity for me to resign at 54 and then I moved up here. What’s your favourite thing about living in Moorabool? Everything. Ballan is just a lovely little town. People are friendly, the atmosphere’s great and you can virtually get everything you want here. What would you change about the area if you could?

(Kristian Scott)

Nothing really. It’s what we like … I can’t see any reason to change anything. Werribee was a little country town in ’69. When we left in 2000, there were people in Hoppers Crossing who didn’t know Werribee existed; it was so huge. Ballan is quite a nice little place. Where’s your favourite place to hang out? Being involved in the historical society, we go there a fair a bit. The local cafes are good and if we want to go out for dinner, there’s this Indian place in Daylesford or the Wallace or Commercial hotels.

When I was a child in Sydney in 1944, we were [sort of] ostracised as a family because of our German connections. But I didn’t know of any other family I had. After I got married, my wife said, ‘Let’s look into your family history’. In 1969-70, we wrote to all the Bidens in Australia and I found out I had a heck of a lot of relatives.

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir finds there’s room for one more cafe … Like Lot 10 Eatery, Dumbo is a new arrival in the WeFo neighbourhood. They join West 48, Pod @ PID, Brother Nancy and Jellybread. This is some fairly intense cafe action. But saturation point? Not yet, it would seem. Dumbo appears to have found its niche rather quickly. The old building next to Footscray West Primary School has been extensively revamped, with much of the limited space taken up by the kitchen and serving area. In the main customer space, there’s a big communal table and a handful of smaller types. The menu has plenty of takes on the usual line-up to keep breakfast fans happy, while the baked Moroccan lamb clay pot ($16) strikes us as something that could also be a handy lunch. The lunch list itself has just three dishes – and CTS tries the lot. Pearl couscous salad with herbs, tomatoes, Lebanese cucumber, chilli herb oil, blackened chicken and green pepper relish ($18) is super. The chicken, moist and juicy, smacks of cumin and more in the seasoning department. Best of all is the fabulous, tangy green pepper relish. No mere garnish this, it is provided in sufficient quantity to really give the dish a hearty flavour bomb. The quinoa zucchini salad with sun-dried tomatoes, dill, goats cheese, shallots, beetroot and smoked trout ($19) is lovely, yet doesn’t quite have the same impact or striking delineation of flavours. It’s undeniably constructed from top-notch

DUMBO MELBOURNE Address: 11 Argyle Street, West Footscray Phone: 9078 2645 ingredients all round, but is a little bland for my tastes. Or maybe it’s this simple: Memo to self – never order anything that involves quinoa. Eating at cafes such as Dumbo often means CTS has to recalibrate expectations, taking on board that meals such as these salads are not the massive mounds of biryani or pho we habitually consume … and that $18 or $19 is the going rate for such fare. Dumbo’s brioche burger ($19) with chorizo patty, bacon, Swiss cheese, jalapeno cream cheese and caramelised onion, with thin chips and harissa mayo on the side, however, does seem to fall short in value for money terms. The verdict from my companion Tony is that the quality is there, but the quantity is less than generous. Then again, maybe comparing a cafe burger with those from ritzy burger joints is unfair. We have been interested to see what precisely ‘chorizo patty’ meant. Would it be a patty all of re-formed, smoked, porky sausage meat? Or would it be a beef patty with some chorizo meat in it. As far as we can tell, it’s the latter. My cafe latte ($3.80) is outstanding.

10TH BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS

Screen time in summer’s arsenal Slip, slop, slap – it’s an adage created to help Australians adapt to the unique environment in which we live. Most Aussies are familiar with the severity of the Australian sun and with one of the highest skin cancer rates in the world, it’s imperative we protect ourselves. But along with seeking shade, sliding on sunglasses, slipping into a shirt and slapping on a hat, sunscreens are an important part of the sunsmart message. Here are some things to look for when buying and wearing sunscreen this summer:

12332030-ACM47-16 10044811-01

• For maximum benefit, consider purchasing a sunscreen that’s SPF 50+. SPF50+ offers only marginally better protection from ultra violet B (UVB) radiation than SPF30+, but it filters out 98 per cent of UVB radiation, compared to the 96.7 per cent blocked by SPF30+. • When it comes to methods of application, it’s a matter of choice. Lotions and milks: Most sunscreen comes in the form of milks and lotions. They have the advantage of being cheap, easy to apply and non-drying. But they may leave your skin feeling sticky or greasy. Creams: They tend to be thicker and come in tubes instead of bottles. Gels: These are alcohol-based and won’t leave your skin feeling sticky or greasy, although they may have a drying effect. They may be more comfortable if you have a lot of body hair. Sprays: These are alcohol-based, so they’re non-greasy, but may dry your skin. They’re easy to apply and great for hairy bodies – but make sure you use enough. Roll-ons: They’re easy to apply to small areas but difficult to apply evenly over a larger area. They’re handy to keep in your bag. Sticks: A sunscreen stick is probably only useful for small areas such as faces. They’re dry, mess-free and compact. Water resistance: If you’re going swimming, look for a product that says it’s water resistant. But remember, even if the label says it’s water resistant, re-applying is a must.

OPEN NIGHT

Friday 25TH NOV 6.30-9.30 • Free colour consultations • Free use of sauna • Launch gym clothing range oxyfit fit Brazilian compression tights and crops • Mandala oils Free show bags for the first 40 through the door

Products for children and people with sensitive skin: Sunscreens should only be used on small areas of a baby’s skin and only if there’s no other protection available, such as clothing and shade. Some sunscreens are marketed specifically for toddlers, infants, children and people with sensitive skins.

Remember, sunscreen is only a secondary and partial defence. First and foremost, try to avoid the sun in the middle of day. If you do go out, wear a broad-brimmed hat, a dense-weave shirt and sunglasses. Eleanor Tabone

25 Scott Street, Melton 9743 1116

12324375-CG39-16

Sunscreens with insect repellent: Insect repellents can reduce a sunscreen effectiveness by about a third.

F E A T U R E

When it’s time for a peace treaty with you Turning 60 is a big milestone and, for women, it can also be a time for self-reflection. Cynthia Barnett, EdD, a retirement specialist, says: “You begin thinking about your purpose in life, about finding what makes you happy and fulfilled. You may be ready for something new, work you love to do. “It’s a time when women need to seriously take stock of their lifestyle habits and make some changes.” There’s heaps of information about taking care of physical health but the 60s can also be a challenging time to maintain emotional and mental health. It’s often an age when marriage problems, work challenges or dealing with family issues are quite stressful. And it’s also when you find your body doesn’t withstand abuse as it did when younger, and health issues may arise. Here are some pointers from Barnett to staying on a mentally healthy track in your 60s: • Set aside quiet time every morning. Meditate, pray, visualise your day. Read something that inspires you. Focus on self-renewal.

• Have fun. Go bungee jumping, rock climbing, backpacking, skiing or dancing – whatever makes you happy. Act like you feel and you’ll feel youthful.

• Be optimistic. Take time to understand what you want out of life. Find purpose and meaning. Then spread the joy to others.

• Find a creative outlet. This helps prevent depression, which affects memory, and helps stimulate your mind. Take up painting. Create a wonderful garden. Engaging your creativity stimulates your brain more than reading, and certainly more than TV.

• Take up yoga. Yoga is great for both mind and body. It is great stretching exercise and enhances flexibility. Flexibility gives encourages better balance that helps avoid falls fractures.

• Make your home an oasis. Eliminate clutter. Fill your home with great music, books and friends. Withdraw and recharge when you need to.

PALM LAKE RESORT TRUGANINA LIVE THE LIFESTYLE YOU DESERVE

• Associate with positive people. They will not drain your valuable energy with complaints. They will help you pursue the best that life has to offer. The 60s can be the perfect time to carve out time for yourself and to set the course for the rest of your life. Keep a sharp eye on your physical health, but also take time to smell the roses. And if roses aren’t in your “garden” – plant them. Carole Levy

SPORT D-Day looming for Keilor X-factor Daniel Venables has the X-factor that AFL recruiters are looking for, according to Western Jets coach Torin Baker. Venables has proven worthy of draft selection after an impressive top-age year in junior football. The Keilor product represented Vic Metro on the national stage and finished with AllAustralian honours. It’s Venables’ potential that excites the draft scouts. “He’s got the capacity to be a dual-position player at the next level,” Baker said. “He played a bit of midfield [in the TAC Cup], but I’d imagine he’s a player who would mainly play forward, but no doubt he’d want to be an AFL midfielder as well.

“He’ll need to keep working harder on his endurance to do that, but he’s a high-end talent. “He’s a rare talent in terms of his explosiveness and ability to impact games when it matters, and there’s multiple examples of that.” Once Venables is off the board – he’s tipped to be in the top-20 range – it will become a lottery for the Western Jets. Up to six more players are in contention to be drafted, whether it be in the national or rookie drafts. Two with solid claims are Brodie Romensky and Jets co-captain Oscar Junker after finishing first and second in the Jets’ best-and-fairest.

Romensky, a halfback-midfielder, was the Jets’ most consistent player and featured in Vic Metro’s run to the national title. Junker, another defender-midfielder, was invited to the AFL draft combine. Recruiters have also made inquiries about wingman Judah Dundon, co-captain Wilson Berry and talls Harrison Bult and Brock McGregor. Lance Jenkinson

Countdown on for Jets By Lance Jenkinson It will be an intriguing AFL draft period for the Western Jets. The only ‘lock’ on the phantom draft boards is talented forward Daniel Venables, tipped to be taken in the top 20. Thereafter, the Jets’ prospects become a draft roulette, the club hoping the ball falls on their number once the elite 30 players are taken off the board. “We know that Daniel will be a certain pick and we expect him to be in the top 20 range,” Jets coach Torin Baker says with confidence. “For a lot of the other boys, and this is through the whole back end of the draft, it’s quite wide open from around pick 30 through to the rookie draft range. So from 30 through to 100, it’s a bit of a mixed bag.” 60 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ NOVEMBER 22, 2016

The draft chances of the 2016 crop of Jets hopefuls are particularly hard to assess because of the circumstances surrounding the team this season. How much weight is given to team performance when assessing an individual after the Jets missed out on the finals? Have injuries – and there were plenty of Jets lining up for surgery this year – dashed the hopes of certain players? Did players with private school commitments get enough exposure to AFL recruiters throughout the year? There are more questions than answers for the Jets ahead of Friday’s national draft and Monday’s rookie draft. Baker won’t be surprised at all if seven of his Jets players make it on to an AFL list come Monday evening, but he knows that number

is pie in the sky. “We feel as though we’ve got about seven boys in contention, but we don’t expect all seven will get drafted,” he said. “Three or four players drafted [overall in the national and rookie drafts] would be a good result for us. “We know some of our players are still being interviewed by clubs, as we speak, and there’s some solid interest in our group of players.” The only guarantee for the Jets players and any other hopeful is some restless nights between now and Friday’s draft. “I’ve spoken to most of them over the past couple of weeks and there’s a little bit of anxiety there about where they’ll go and if they’ll go,” Baker said. “I’m sure that’s the case with all the players in contention.”

Darley’s match against Mt Clear is evenly poised after the first day of their Ballarat Cricket Association two-day match. Both sides started in form, sitting one and two on the ladder after three rounds. Mt Clear decided to bat first on their home pitch, making the most of the short boundaries by hitting 26 boundaries in their total of 214 off 65.3 overs. While the score is more than the Lions have had to chase in the past couple of years, skipper Heath Pritchard said they were happy restricting Mt Clear as they did. “It was a pretty small ground,” he said. “And 214, I’m happy with that score to chase. Shots were either ones or fours – miss-hits were going for fours and sixes – I thought we bowled really well.” Pritchard was the pick of the bowlers, taking 5-53 off 17.4 overs. He took five of the last six wickets. Despite his own figures, Pritchard was full of praise for the other bowlers. “Matt Cape bowled well and got the early breakthrough, and the spinners bowled well, despite shots going for boundaries. “I thought Brad Barnes bowled well in his second spell … which helped me get my wickets.” In reply, the Lions made 0-30 at stumps. Lachlan Herring will resume at 16 not-out and Jake Wilkie on 10. “We batted well, and to finish the day at 0-30, ended a good performance for the day. If we bat well next week, we’ll get the win.” The only downside on Saturday for the Lions was an injury to Pritchard. After opening the batting, he retired hurt for two. “I had a little hammy twinge,” he said. “I hurt it going off for a single, and it was a bit hard to run, It wasn’t worth doing more damage with not many overs left in the day.” If the Lions get the win, it’ll be their third of the season so far, having already knocked off last season’s premiers Golden Point. “We’ve got a bit of work to do,” Pritchard said. “Mt Clear is one of the better sides and, if we get the win, we’ve got wins over the premiers and a side that made the semi-finals. “Hopefully, a win will set us on our way.” Tara Murray

STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

Bowlers the key to bustling Lions’ lead Melton’s bowlers have done the job for a second straight week in the Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association’s east-west competition. Having bowled Hoppers Crossing out for a measly 19 last week, the bowlers were in the thick of the action on day one of the two-day clash with Endeavour Hills at the Hills’ home ground. Endeavour Hills elected to bat on a good pitch, but it was a decision the team would soon regret as it crumbled to 6-24. Nicochana Perera led a mini-comeback but lacked support as his team was skittled for 93. Brad Jones starred with the ball for the Lions, taking a career best 8-29 from almost 19 overs. Lions captain David Kirk said that to back up the performance from the previous week was something they had focused on. He said it was good for Jones to get rewarded

with wickets for the way he had bowled the past few weeks. “The last two or three games he’s bowled really well but hasn’t been getting wickets. He got reward yesterday for good bowling. “It was a really good wicket, a quick outfield and a small ground. Ashley Sweet and Brad bowled well to set it up.” Sweet took the other two wickets. The Lions had 25 overs left to bat on day one. The aim for Kirk was simple: get a first innings lead by stumps. They did it with ease and will resume at 3-94, with Anthony Gale on 14 and Kirk on 12. “We wanted to get the runs, so we’ve got the result no matter what happens next week with weather,” Kirk said. “It was a good effort to get the runs in those overs.” Ben MacRae was again among the runs (36), while fellow opener Michael Alexander

contributed 29. Among those looking to get a bat for the Lions on day two is first XI debutant Aaron Clarke. Clarke came into the side to replace playing coach Nathan Geisler, who was unavailable. “He’s a 16-year-old who’s worked hard at training and had some good performances in the twos,” Kirk said. “Hopefully he’ll get a chance with the bat.” The Lions know the job isn’t done. Consistency has been the side’s weakness in recent seasons. “We haven’t won two games in a row this season,” Kirk said, “and I threw the challenge out to the group before the game. “We haven’t won away from home either. It’s good to get the points, but we’ll be hoping to continue this form next week.” Tara Murray

Angela Molnar won her 200-metre individual medley and finished second in her 50-metre backstroke. Ryan Dobbie scored 106 on Saturday against Sunbury United. (Damian Visentini)

Saints have their day By Tara Murray A century to St Anthonys’ Ryan Dobbie put the Saints in a good position against Sunbury United in their Gisborne and District Cricket Association B-grade match. After struggling with the bat the past couple of weeks, St Anthonys was after a change of fortune against the strong United line-up. After a few shifts to the previous week’s side, the Saints looked better with the bat early, cruising at 3-154. But from that point, the wickets fell until they were bowled out for 244. Dobbie, who missed the previous match, made 106, while Wes Greig, another inclusion this week, made 43 at the top of the order. James Hughes was the best of the bowlers for United, taking 4-44. Meanwhile, Bacchus Marsh is in control of its B-grade match against East Sunbury, thanks to some lower order batting heroics. Aaron Peterson (59) started well at the top of

the order, as several batsmen got starts. Despite this, the Bulls were in trouble at 7-126. Numbers eight and nine, Chris Dugdale-Porter and Jack Powell, produced an 89 eighth-wicket partnership to push the score past 200. But a run-out finished the Bulls’ innings shortly afterwards, with the side all out for 262. Powell finished unbeaten on 58. Jaxon Mobilio was the best of the bowlers for the Thunder, taking 5-90. As for Lancefield, it set Ashfield 7-247 in their match. The Tigers looked in control for most of its innings, with seven of the nine batsmen that made it to the crease passing double figures. lan Sinclair top-scored for the Tigers with 67 not out, while Ryan Millar chipped in with 49, before being run out. Ashfield skipper Ryan Pretty toiled hard, taking 4-90 off 30 overs. Macedon made 211 against ladder leaders

Wallan. Every one of Macedon’s top order made contributions as they looked to push the score past 200. But the tail didn’t offer much resistance, which restricted Macedon’s total to 211. Brendon Scott top-scored with 45 not out. Matt Bell was the best of the bowlers for Wallan, taking 5-40. The struggling Blackwood team looks set for another loss in the C-grade competition. After getting into trouble with the bat against Woodend – and making just 116 – Blackwood needed quick wickets at the end of day one to hold onto any chance. It wasn’t to be. Woodend was 2-97 at stumps, needing just 20 runs on the second day for victory. In other C-grade results, Kyneton and Romsey are both in control of their matches against Sunbury United and Sunbury. Meanwhile, Riddell is 2-10, chasing Gisborne’s tally of 129.

Angus Grigg is the latest player to sign with Melton Football Club. Grigg joins the Bloods after spending last year with Essendon District Football League premier division runners-up Aberfeldie.

Fierce competition to represent Melton’s top team Melton secured its first vital win away in the Bowls Victoria Pennant division 1, section 1 season on Saturday. Up against struggling bottom-side Preston-Reservoir, Melton started the match clear favourites, but knew it needed to perform. It did just that, winning all four rinks easily to record an overall 45-shot win, 95 (18)-50 (0). Melton secretary John Adams said a win was never in doubt. “We ran all over them,” he said. “Teams that are below us on the ladder are the sides we need to beat. We never looked like losing. We started well and kept getting further and further ahead. “To have a 45-shot win away from home is massive.”

The win was Melton’s third for the season, its two losses by way of a combined 11 shots. Melton’s next two assignments are Fitzroy Victoria and Glenroy, teams fighting alongside Melton for a finals spot. With both matches at home, Adams said they are vital to the overall season outcome. “If you win all your home games and win two or three away games, you’re likely to play finals,” he said. “Win both these games and you set up the season.” Competition for spots in Melton’s top team is fierce, with the division 2 side on top of the ladder. In other competitions, Bacchus Marsh

rebounded after its worst performance of the season with one of its best, a thumping win over Woodend in Central Highlands Bowls Division’s division 1. There was little trouble for any of the rinks, as a six-shot margin was the closest result in the 116 (18)-60 (0) win. Stand-in skipper Adam Dodd had a 25-shot win. Bacchus Marsh jumps from sixth on the ladder to third, and is on 57 points, three points clear of Kyneton. In division 2, Bacchus Marsh had an 89 (14)-86 (4) win against Kyneton, while Mt Cottrell were easy winners against Diggers Rest, 109 (18)-83 (0). Bacchus Marsh sits 12 points clear on top of the ladder.

Burras blunder with bat By Tara Murray Diggers Rest Bulla’s batting woes have returned – consequently it has a fight on its hands for victory against Bacchus Marsh in the Gisborne and District Cricket Association McIntyre Cup. Having put in their best batting performance in their previous game, against Riddell, the Burras were left to rue too many starts and no one going on with it on Saturday. Seven batsmen reached double figures for the Burras, but not one passed 40 in the team’s total of 154. Michael Sammut was the best with the bat, making 38. Burras playing coach Kevin Barker said the performance showed the side still has a lot of work to do with the bat. “It was really frustrating,” he said. “We had times where we would get a partnership, then we would let them back into the game, losing a clump of wickets. “There was six or seven guys who got starts, but not one player went on. It’s especially frustrating as we thought last round might be the catalyst for more consistent performances with the bat. “We weren’t overly happy with our batting, but we also have to give them credit for the job they did.” All seven of the Cobras’ bowlers took wickets, with three players taking two each. In reply, the Cobras, who are the form team of the competition, will resume at 1-18. Drew Closter fell for a duck off the first ball of the innings. Barker said the Burras needed to follow the example set by the Cobras on day one if they are to win. “Their ground fielding was really good,” he said. “They restricted the run rate, which forced wickets. “When we went out to bowl, we were just looking to restrict their runs, hoping we could be in an even position – and 1-20 is about that. Three wickets would have been a bonus if we could have got them.” In other matches, Gisborne produced its best form of the season early against Riddell to take first-innings points. The opening spells of acting captain Jay King and Darcy Nolan destroyed the Bombers’ top order, leaving them scrambling at 6-26. Despite a middle-order comeback from Matthew Darby (39) and Cameron Moran (42), once Darby was removed, the Bombers were quickly bowled out for 117. Gisborne finished day one at 4-134. A 91 from Woodend’s Warren Else set up his side’s score of 9-286 against Rupertswood. Sunbury is in trouble at 4-43 chasing Romsey’s 139. Aaron Paterson took two of the four wickets for Romsey.

Meanwhile, The Avenue remains win-less after six rounds in Ballarat District Bowls division 1. Sitting at the bottom of the ladder, the Avenue travelled to Learmonth hoping to kickstart its season. Despite a better match than previous weeks, the Avenue was still on the wrong end of the scoreboard. Bill Hawken’s rink had a massive 26-15 win, and new skip Ben Gould’s rink won by three shots, but it wasn’t enough – the Avenue lost 96 (4)-84 (4). It was a better day for the rest of the Avenue’s teams, all recorded wins. Tara Murray

Auskick helper goes the extra yard A week out from the very first session of the Melton Saturday Auskick Centre four years ago, the co-ordinator dropped out and committee members scrambled to find someone to do the job. Michelle Whitehand, who was on the committee, put her hand up and with her husband as one of two coaches, the program started with 30 children. Four years on, Whitehand is still the co-ordinator and the program now embraces more than 130 children. “I was on the committee for the Melton Junior Football Club and we were approached about starting another Auskick Centre in Melton to run on Saturday mornings,” she said. “I thought it was a great idea to have a centre that was connected with the Bloods.” Whitehand’s work hasn’t gone unnoticed, and earlier this month at the AFL Victoria Community Football Awards she was named AFL Auskick volunteer of the year. She was nominated for the award by AFL Goldfields development manager Grant McMillan. “I’m not the type of person who likes taking individual accolades,” she said about the award. “This award is for the whole team. Graeme Dreaver is the coaching co-ordinator and does a lot of the planning of the kids on Saturdays. It allows me to do a lot of the promotional and communication side of things. “We’ve got nine volunteer coaches and more volunteer staff. It’s a big team that’s like a family.” This year has been a big year for the centre, with 48 children given the chance to be part of the AFL grand final parade and play at half-time on the big day at the ‘G’. Continuing to grow the program is the next step for Whitehand and the rest of the committee. An AFL Goldfields study released last year found only eight per cent of males aged five to 39 in the area were playing any form of Australian Rules. A scholarship program is another idea Whitehand is hoping to get off the ground next year. “Next year we want to start a scholarship program to help under-privileged kids get involved. “We had a kid keep coming up with his pocket money asking if he could play. “We’ll look at approaching schools to give the chance to kids who wouldn’t normally get to do it.” Tara Murray

Rod and Sheryl Easdown test drive Hyundai Elantra Elite

SHE SAYS

ROD’S VERDICT A very good package, well priced.

here are two Elantra models: the base Active, at $24,694 in manual or $27,071 in auto, and the Elite, just shy of $30k. If you can manage it, go for the Elite; the interior is noticeably nicer with richer, more tactile surfaces and an ambience that says quality. For all of that, the Active has everything you need. It surprised me that there is no navigation option. Hyundai instead asks you to plug in your iPhone and use its mapping, with the map and directions coming up on the in-built centre screen. This is fine only as long as you have phone range. Otherwise this is a terrific car. The seating is comfortable and supportive, and it’s easy to find the right driving position. But I didn’t like the forward posture of the head restraints, which can’t be tilted back. The dash layout is simple and clear and I liked the generous leg room up front. It’s still pretty good in the back too, but headroom will be an issue here with taller passengers.

ne of the things that most impressed me about Hyundai’s luxury car, the Genesis, was the balance achieved between ride and handling. But then a Genesis costs $65k. The surprise is that Hyundai has achieved that same balancing act with the far more price-friendly Elantra. It corners fast and flat without skipping, it’s predictable and solid. And it’s not just the ride/handling equation, it has beautifully weighted steering and a nicely taut chassis. When you feel like taking it gently you’ll note the interior is quiet and the fuel economy is pretty good, despite a willing motor and a well-matched six-speed auto that changes down when it should, rather than when it will use the least amount of fuel. It’s brisk away from the lights and it overtakes swiftly. Among all the sedans between $20k and $30k, this provides about the best driving experience you’ll find, along with heaps of practicality.
