CASH SPLASH Coalition pledges financial support to upgrade Spring Creek Reserve clubrooms

BY NATHAN HALE TORQUAY will get its first extensive community facility if a Coalition government wins power at next month’s federal election.

Liberal candidate for Corangamite, Sarah Henderson, last week pledged $350,000 to help turn the ageing clubrooms at Spring Creek Reserve into a space for the whole community to enjoy.

While Torquay has a number of smaller venues available for use by the community around town, there are few places boasting the size of the proposed clubrooms to hold events.

This was underlined with the Surf Coast Shire Council holding its monthly meeting at the clubrooms when a huge crowd turned out for the

Surf Forecast

decision on the development of Spring Creek last year.

And just last month the Concerned Parents About Torquay and Surfcoast Schooling held its public meeting at the clubrooms.

Henderson has worked closely with the Torquay Football Club to help secure the funding for the $1million project, and while she acknowledged the club would benefit hugely from the cash splash, she also said the wider community would reap the rewards.

“The big issue with Torquay is that it is a rapidly growing community,” Henderson said.

“And the football club is no different with its growth. They currently have 400 junior players alone at the moment and they are struggling to keep

pace with the growth.

“So for the whole community – not just the football club – this is a very important upgrade.

“Having a community facility is really important for any town, and this upgrade will provide a facility that families will find very important.

“Torquay Football Club is a family orientated club with a strong family focus.

“They have been very successful in cultivating a family atmosphere and it was very important that we secured this funding.”

The proposed upgrade will include a refurbishment and expansion of the existing clubrooms, upgraded toilet facilities, better storage and the creation of a viewing balcony.

The pledge is part of a $4.79million injection

of funds promised for the Surf Coast, Bellarine Peninsula and Geelong region by the Coalition should they win the August 21 election.

“This commitment of almost $5million is a very substantial one,” Henderson said.

“It will deliver major investment in local infrastructure to meet the needs of growing communities, and these projects will provide a real boost to communities.

“I have been working with Ross Henderson and Denis Ryan from the Torquay Football Club for a number of months now and am absolutely delighted that a Coalition Government will commit to these upgrades.

“Ross and Denis have done a wonderful job advocating on behalf of the club.”

Look around Torquay this week for beanies… in shop windows, on heads and in your friend’s knitting rooms after the Beaut Beanie Festival started on Saturday.

You’ll see the colourful, the creative, the zany and the warm all around central Torquay, with some of the wonderful creations up for sale.

The festival will finish off with a performance from local musician, Bruce Watson, on Sunday from 2.30pm at the Torquay Uniting Church in Anderson Street.

Aireys supermarket decision in August

In August, council will make a decision on a complex planning matter.

Butter Factory Supermarket’s proposal for a development of four shops and offices, with waived car parking requirements at the Aireys bottom shops, is the first planning application for which council has requested a Coastal Hazard Vulnerability Assessment due to the potential impact of rising sea levels.

The applicant has taken the matter to VCAT as council has not been able to come to a decision within 60 days of the application being lodged.

This is due to the amount of technical information that has been required to assess the application, including the CHVA, stormwater management plans and more detailed traffic management plans.

On August 4, council will be hearing public submissions from objectors who have indicated

they wish to exercise their right to lodge a verbal submission, before council makes its decision on the matter at its August meeting.

While VCAT will also be hearing the matter, council’s decision based on expert information and community views will play a big part in determining VCAT’s approach to this application.

MOU signed on sale of council site

Earlier this month, council signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Victorian Department of Education and Early Childhood Development for the sale of council’s Grossmans Road site.

The site’s sale will help fund new Surf Coast Community and Civic Precinct, which will include much-needed sporting, community, recreation and civic infrastructure; as well as paving the way for further expansion of Torquay College.

For more information on the precinct, visit www.surfcoast.vic.gov.au/ccp.htm

At this week’s July council meeting, council will make decisions on a number of important issues, including the RACV’s proposal to use stormwater from Jan Juc to irrigate the Torquay Golf Course.

This is a matter of significant public interest and a proposal for which there is little legislative guidance or precedent for council to consider.

For this reason, council has taken time to seek community and expert input to ensure we can make an informed decision.

A number of other important matters will also come before council this week, including the proposed final Whites Beach Masterplan; new guidelines to promote sustainable design in houses and other buildings in the Surf Coast Shire; and the Winchelsea Estate Masterplan.

The meeting will be held tomorrow at council’s Grossmans Road chambers from 6pm.

From Monday, August 2 the Surf Coast Mobile Library’s timetable will change and a new home library service will begin in Moriac.

Aireys decision soon COUNCIL will next month make a decision on an application to build a supermarket, shops and offices in Aireys Inlet.

A total of 115 objections have been received by council, and these submissions will be heard prior to the shire making a decision.

Since receiving the application from Butter Factory Supermarket, council has also requested additional information including a stormwater management plan, updates to traffic and parking assessments and a coastal hazard vulnerability assessment.

These have been provided and a preliminary assessment into the potential contamination of land from old petrol bowsers and fuel tanks around the site is now being done.

Butter Factory Supermarket has already appealed to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) due to the fact council will not determine the application within 60 days of its lodgement.

Mayor, Libby Coker, said the application presented a number of issues that needed to

be investigated – including coastal hazard and environmental issues – before a decision could be made.

“These issues required detailed assessments to be done, which the applicant has provided,” she said.

“This is the first planning application in Surf Coast Shire for which council has requested a Coastal Hazard Vulnerability Assessment, on the basis of its proximity to the Painkalac Creek Estuary.

“This is a complex issue that council has a duty to address under the Victorian Coastal Strategy.

While this has meant extra time has been taken in determining the application, it is important that council has met its duty in this regard.”

Coker said council was due to hear submissions from all objectors who have indicated they wished to exercise their right to make a verbal submission on Wednesday, August 4. A decision will be made at council’s monthly meeting on Wednesday, August 25.

Family fun for funds

BY ELEANOR WOODS AN ANGLESEA mum of two is on a quest to help improve childcare facilities in the town by organising a day of fun to raise funds.

Like a lot of Surf Coast mothers, when Jo McKenzie made the sea change from Melbourne with her husband and kids, Lila, 5, and Leo, 2, she was met with “limited” childcare resources.

“There are not a lot of facilities and not a lot of funds,” she said.

It was then that she decided, “well, someone’s got to do it”, and began working toward putting together the Anglesea Community Fundraiser.

The event, to be held from 10am-2pm this

Sunday at the Eumeralla Scout Camp will host a range of activities for adults and children alike, with all proceeds going to the Anglesea Kindergarten and Playgroup.

“There are little things they need. If we don’t try and raise the money no-one’s going to,” McKenzie said.

“It will be a fantastic day out. It’s midwinter and there is nothing much to do. I invite everyone to come along and meet others and have a great day out with the family.

“The little ones can have a crack at icing a cupcake or taking part in a picture drawing competition.

“And, of course, there will be a jumping castle and fairy floss.”

Do you have the winning ticket?

THE SEARCH is on for a lucky Torquay Tattslotto and Gifts customer who has a winning first division ticket from Saturday night’s draw.

The customer – who is registered but has not updated their details so they cannot be contacted – bought the ticket with a quick pick.

They are one of six winners who will share the $4million first prize pool.

“Because the winner has not updated their details they cannot be contacted, but we are

thrilled to have sold the ticket,” said Paul Nigro, who only bought the business with his wife, Corinne, in December last year.

“We owned a newsagency in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne but didn’t sell Tattslotto tickets, so this is the first division one winner and it is great to have come just seven months after we took over.”

Saturday night’s winning numbers were 24, 13, 16, 6, 30, 33 with 43 and 34 the supplementaries.

“We need your support” is the message from the children at Anglesea Kindergarten and Playgroup.

Helping to fundraise with their parents are (from left) Tayllah Clarke, 4, Cooper Allan, 5, and Oscar Wu, 4.

Making the most of second chances

BY ELEANOR WOODS FIVE years ago Torquay policewoman Lisa Kearney was diagnosed with leukaemia and told she wasn’t expected to live. “It was awful. I went from being in complete control of my life to having no control at all,� she said.

After severe and invasive treatment and a miraculous recovery, the leading senior constable is in complete remission and determined to help raise funds for the Leukaemia Foundation.

Kearney is working with husband, Rod, also a police officer, and constable Cathy Hastie, who is a bowel cancer survivor.

Together, the three are pitching in with the aim of raising $5,000 for the annual Light the Night Leukaemia Foundation fundraiser.

The trio, who call themselves ‘Second Chances’, are hosting a Trivia Night fundraiser at the Grovedale Hotel, on Thursday, August 12. “There seem to be more and more people getting cancer. It’s scary. Everyone knows someone. If we can do something to help then that’s great,� Lisa said. “When I was sick I saw so many people die, including a lot of children. We have always done fundraising but I’m now really committed to helping this cause.�

Lisa survived her battle only after six months of chemotherapy and a drastic world-first trial using arsenic treatment. “It was just horrible‌ but I had no choice. I had to put my life in the doctors’ hands, and now I’m here today,â€? she said.

The Trivia Night is one of several events the ‘Second Chances’ are involved in this year. “It’ll be a fantastic. We have hundreds of great prizes to giveaway and it’ll be a real laugh,� Lisa said. “Prizes include pairs of $600 sunglasses, watches, overnight stays and heaps more. It’s not a money for

Bunnings concerns remain

BY SARAH LAWRENCE TORQUAY traders continued to stand firm against the proposed Bunnings development when they gathered last week to talk about the effects it could have on the town.

Rob Jolly from the Centre for Independently Owned Research spoke about the financial and personal implications for independently owned retailers when bigger retailers come to small towns.

“Torquay is in a particularly interesting situation. The proposed development is not in the heart of the town, it is on the edge, so that could drive a lot of business away from the main centre,” he said.

More than 20 Torquay independent retail owners gathered at the Jade Restaurant on Gilbert Street to listen to the not-for-profit speaker.

“It was good to tell the traders that they’re not alone, it’s our task to give them some support,” Jolly said.

“There are similar problems in Mission

Beach in Queensland as well as in Albany in Western Australia where a Big W has recently been knocked back.”

Jolly explained that big retailers can suck huge amounts of money out of small towns.

“It’s not just the hardware at Bunnings.

There will be a cafe, nursery and homewares, Bunnings stock an awful lot,” he said.

“All of this will be big competition for the independent retailers in town.

“You also find a lot of independent retailers shop locally, have mortgages, cars, are part of sporting groups and things like that.

“But if they start to lose money then they can’t support the other local businesses they shop from. Economically that is where towns start to get poor and the community weakens – it’s a multiplier effect.”

The traders appeared passionate and motivated to fight Bunnings after the talk finished.

“He gave us some good direction – in particular on working with council,” said Martin Duke from Surf Sight Optical.

Rodney Foord, Martin Duke and Linda Cherubin discuss the potential effects of the proposed Bunnings at the West Coast Business Park.

Anglesea to host clean energy forum A DIVERSE range of speakers will feature at the inaugural Clean Energy Coast Forum at Anglesea this Friday.

The forum’s steering committee chair, Simon Pockley, said the event – to be held at Anglesea Memorial Hall from 3.30pm-5.30pm – will provide a chance for local groups and individuals to form a united front on tackling climate change.

“The reason for having this forum is that whole of region planning is being developed for the south-west coast of Victoria,” he said.

“The objectives of community groups wanting

to take action on climate change do not readily align with government policy, planning overlays, or funding.

“Any significant shift towards energy saving and generation from renewable sources will necessarily involve the community.

“It is important that we try to speak to the various levels of Government with one voice.”

Speakers at the forum will include environmental consultant, Chris Mason, Monica Winston (Geelong Sustainability Group), Andrew Lucas (Transition Towns), as well as Mike Lawrence (Beyond Zero Emissions),

and the Shadow Minister for Climate Action, Environment and Heritage, Greg Hunt.

“The launch of the Zero Carbon Australia Plan has given us a credible and ‘do-able’ case for renewable stationary power by 2020, the community now wants regional action,” said steering committee member and Transition Town speaker, Andrew Lucas.

The forum programme has been developed by a steering committee from community groups with a focus on facilitating community action.

The meeting is free and is open to anyone wishing to attend.

Community house changes

BY LAURA DUKE IT’S A very exciting time for the Spring Creek Community House and the Senior Citizens Community at the moment, with both groups’ halls undergoing renovations.

During the renovations, which should be finished around Christmas, both groups have relocated to the old police station, just up the road at 18 Price Street, Torquay.

“We’ve moved and it’s business as usual, just a bit cosier,” said Laura Connor, from Spring Creek Community House.

The side ramp entrance (on the left) is where to go for all the social activities and training classes, with Matchworks and the training room upstairs, and Yoga, AA meetings and social activities downstairs, with the front door leading to the reception area.

However, some activities are also being held outside the new location. The Senior Citizens bingo and exercise classes are now held at the Torquay Cricket/Football Club and Tai Chi is now at the Greenleaf retirement village.

Many of the children’s activities such as MAT, as well as arts studio and breakdancing now take place at the Torquay Uniting Church.

“The Uniting Church have been just fantastic in helping us, we couldn’t have done it without them – and a huge thank you to the cricket/ football club and Greenleaf as well,” Connor said.

All of the new locations can be found in the new edition of Springboard, which is out now.

This edition will not be home delivered due to a lack of volunteers, but can be picked up at (the new) Spring Creek House, IGA, Network Video and other local businesses around Torquay.

The house is open from 9am-1pm Monday to Friday, phone 5261 3627 for more or visit www.springcreekcommunityhouse.org.au/

Precinct preparation work commences PREPARATION work has begun for construction of the Community and Civic Precinct site in Torquay.

Barwon Water has started water supply works in the area with earthmoving equipment placing a feeder main that will not only bring water to the precinct, but also improve water services to the north Torquay area.

Temporary fencing has been erected around a section of the site to ensure safety requirements are met, before a site office is constructed.

Inside the fenced area off the Surf Coast Highway, environmental weeds including Blackberry, Coast Tea Tree and Radiata Pine are being removed.

These will be replaced with indigenous vegetation in accordance with the site planting plan.

Following this, work will begin on delivering the first stage of the precinct’s recreation facilities. This phase of the project is on schedule to be complete in March 2011.

Mayor, Libby Coker, said the first stage of the recreation facilities would include one Australian football oval with designs for another, one synthetic surface soccer pitch with designs for another and four competition-standard netball courts, as well as a multipurpose pavilion.

A civic centre will also be delivered by the end of 2011.

“The Community and Civic Precinct will deliver much-needed infrastructure and community facilities for all Surf Coast residents,” Coker said.

“With the first sod to be turned shortly, the Community and Civic Precinct’s recreation component will take shape rapidly with the first stage of construction to be finished in March 2011.

“We have consulted closely with local clubs and groups on how the recreation facilities can best meet local needs now and into the future, ensuring some of the Surf Coast’s most significant infrastructure needs will be met through this project.”

Support for renewable energy THE SURF Coast’s standing as a renewable energy hotspot was underlined last week with the release of a new report in Jan Juc. Federal Member for Corangamite, Darren Cheeseman, hosted Federal Resources and Energy Minister Martin Ferguson, Victorian Resources and Energy Minister Peter Bachelor, Steve Garner, CEO Keppel Prince, Dan Hansen, CEO Suzlon Energy, Robert King, executive director Greenearth Energy and Mathew Warren, CEO Clean Energy Council of Australia at the roundtable discussion.

With the Surf Coast being identified as an ideal location for wind, wave and geothermal energy developments, the government has already poured millions of dollars of funding into local projects.

At the meeting, held at Jan Juc

WE HAVE

Surf Life Saving Club, Bachelor said the report, completed by Sinclair Knight Merz on behalf of the State Government, assessed if Victoria’s future energy needs could be entirely met from renewable energy sources.

“Our government is committed to helping Victoria shift to a low-carbon economy,” he said.

“For nearly a century, Victoria has relied heavily on coal, oil and gas to supply us with relatively cheap but highly polluting energy. Now, we must reduce greenhouse gas emissions while our demand for energy continues to grow.

“The report examined if Victoria had the renewable resources to physically produce enough energy to meet all our energy needs from renewables and the answer is yes.”

Celebrate art on the coast SURF Coast Arts will hold its annual general meeting in Aireys Inlet this Friday night.

The meeting – to be held at the Community Hall on the Great Ocean Road from 7.30pm – is open to anyone who would like to be involved in making a difference on the Surf Coast.

Surf Coast Arts was established in 1995 and since then has encouraged and supported art initiatives throughout the region.

The success of the volunteer group can be judged by the growth of established groups, events and sub committees.

Regular events and activities that the Surf Coast Arts committee and

sub-committees organise include the Torquay Cowrie Market, Aireys Festival of Words, Singing for Fun in Bellbrae, WEAR ARTrageous and the ARTSPOT exhibition held annually in Aireys Inlet.

“It is overwhelming the diversity of talent and the excitement this generates in the community,” said current president, Wendy Grose.

“I encourage anyone who is interested in cultural happenings to get involved.”

Anyone interested in becoming involved is invited to Friday’s meeting, which will include the screening of award-winning animation, Mutt, music from Victoriana Gaye as well as nibbles.

A big hand for small business SERVICES to regional and rural small businesses are now mobile following the first of two visits to Torquay of a Mobile Business Centre.

A programme of Small Business Victoria, the Mobile Business Centre spent last Tuesday in Torquay – with another visit already booked in for September 21.

Small Business minister, Joe Helper, encouraged businesses to take advantage of what the centre had to offer.

“There are 150,000 small businesses located in regional and rural Victoria, many of which don’t have easy access to one of the Government’s eight Victorian Business Centres located in country Victoria,” he said.

“So Small Business Victoria is taking action to bring the Victorian Business Centre to them in the form of a Mobile Business Centre.”

The Mobile Business Centre offers access to the Big Help for Small Business guide, as well as Business Victoria Online and other information and resources needed by businesses.

For more information on the Mobile Business Centre, phone Small Business Victoria on 132 215 or visit www. business.vic.gov.au/mbc

Wine course for all

BY LAURA DUKE WHETHER you’re an experienced wine connoisseur or just like a nice glass with dinner, the Anglesea and District Community House (ADCH) wine appreciation course is for you.

The course is the first of its kind at the ADCH and is open to all members of the community.

“It’s for anyone who enjoys wine and will be a nice environment to eat and drink and chat and learn,” said Ann Wingad from the ADCH. “The idea is to have an informal gathering where the representatives will provide a fairly personal presentation to a small group.”

The course will begin on Thursday, August 5 and run for five weeks from 5.30pm-7pm at the Anglesea and District Community House, located at 5 McMillan Street.

The cost is $50 for the entire course, which must be paid before the first night.

In weekly order, the wineries to present the tastings are: • Blakes Estate Winery • Brown Magpie Wines • Dinny Goonan Family Estate • The Minya Vineyard and Winery • Bellbrae Estate For more information or to book, phone 5263 2116.

Work begins on new toilet block THE AGEING public toilet facilities on The Esplanade were last week closed as work on a new block begins to take its place.

Great Ocean Road Coast Committee (GORCC) boss Richard Davies, said the facilities, located between Bell and Price streets, will be unavailable until October when the new public toilet block opens.

“We have installed signs advising of the facility’s closure and directing people to

alternative conveniences at Cosy Corner and near the corner of The Esplanade and Anderson Street,” he said.

“In addition, temporary fencing has been erected around the site in preparation for demolition works.

“The new facility replaces a very old and rundown facility, which many locals would agree should have gone long ago.

“Its design has been four years in the making

and has involved extensive consultation with residents, the Surf Coast Shire and Department of Sustainability and Environment.”

Designed by Geelong-based architect Peter Woolard, the final design acknowledges the site as being in a highly visible, sensitive coastal location. It incorporates a range of design features that seek to merge the building with its landscape, thereby reducing its overall visual impact.

Alcoa employees go back to playgroup ALCOA Anglesea Power Station employees joined forces with members of the Anglesea Playgroup to give their facility a makeover last week.

The volunteer effort was part of the Alcoa Foundation’s ACTION programme.

ACTION (Alcoans Coming Together in Their Neighbourhoods) is a programme developed by the Alcoa Foundation to recognise the collective efforts of Alcoans in communities where they live and work.

The Foundation rewards initiatives where Alcoa employees choose to volunteer their time working together on a special community project.

Each project not only receives around 40 hours of labour, but also a US$3,000

(AUS$3,100 approximately) cheque to assist in sustaining their services into the future.

Treasurer of the Anglesea Playgroup, Katy Kennedy, said she was delighted with the grant and volunteer support. “This is a fantastic programme.

Anglesea Playgroup is gaining momentum with lots of young families participating in the last two years in particular,� she said. “Our facility was in need of assistance, and as a group we had struggled to find the time and the money to complete the work. “Alcoa not only supplied us with $3,100 but also the arms and legs for the day to actually get the work done�.

Murmur needs your stories to make it work!

Using mobile phone technology, Murmur will be installed at various significant locations around the Bellarine Peninsula. Recordings of stories will be accessed via SMS and online. This simple yet totally modern story-telling platform is another way of interpreting this beautiful region.

Murmur has already been succesfully installed in The Botanic Gardens, Eastern Beach and Waterfront Geelong, joining other “Murmur� cities around the world such as Dublin, Vancouver and Toronto.

Come along to an information session between 7.30pm and 9.00pm on Thursday 29 July at Parks Hall, Newcombe St, Portarlington.

For further information please contact Ross Mueller at The Arts & Culture department on 5272 4703.

A SURF COAST collaborative art endeavour has seen two friends “crack into the high-end art world�.

Torquay’s Nick Morris and part-time local, Dave Bowers, have been nominated finalists in the prestigious Doug Moran National Portraiture Awards for a piece they painted together.

Together the pair operates under the name Doug Bartlett, a pseudonym that pays homage to their respective footy teams.

The painting up for award, which has seen them skyrocket from relative ‘unknowns’ to ‘being noticed’, is described by the duo as “a self portrait, done by two people, of a person, that doesn’t exist�.

Morris and Bowers cleverly blended a portrait of each of themselves to create a portrait of their representative character, ‘Doug Bartlett’, which the work is also aptly named.

In the boys’ style, the image was then screen printed onto a collage of wooden panels before being finished.

Both Morris and Bowers come from a background of graphic design and found their passion in fulltime painting little over two-and-a-half years ago. “We are extremely honoured to be recognised in such a short amount of time. It’s really exciting,� Morris said. “This is really big for us. The avenues this opens to the higher end of the art world are huge.�

Bowers described Doug Bartlett’s collaborative work as a fusion of pop culture, interesting images, colour, and creativity.

They take their inspiration from artists such as Andy Warhol to name but one. “It’s that love attraction with iconography and images and advertising all rolled into one,� Bowers said.

The trust that comes from working as a collaborative team was huge, the pair said. “You can’t be precious about anything you’ve done because the other one could come and paint over it at any time,� Bowers said.

Many of the artists’ paintings had already been sold around the Surf Coast and others are available at Tigerfish, situated in Bell Street, Torquay. “For any locals who have already bought either of our art, this would suggest that from an investment point of view things are heading in the right direction,� Morris said.

Find your perfect career INTERESTED in a career as a professional chef or a fashion designer – perhaps marine biology is more your calling.

Whatever career has captured your imagination, chances are this year’s Herald Sun Melbourne Career Expo will reveal the next step in finding a profession that truly inspires you.

More than 150 exhibitors from all over Australia and New Zealand will be under the one roof to inform Victorians of all ages about finding a new career. “This year the careers on offer are quite diverse,� said Nicole Capper, expo event manager. “For example, the Melbourne Aquarium will be promoting its aquarist for a week programme, which provides students

interested in a career in aquatic science the opportunity of diving in the oceanarium with sharks and stingrays. “If that seems a little too wet and wild for your liking you could consider one of the rewarding careers being promoted by the Department of Justice, like that of a community correctional officer.�

A broad range of seminars covering topics such as ‘VCE examination strategies that really work’ to ‘A career in disability – aspire to inspire’ will be running in one of the three seminar rooms operating throughout the event. “One of the interesting topics being discussed within our seminar rooms this year is finding a new career at 50 years and over,�

Capper said.

Whether you are 15 or 50, you are sure to find a seminar to answer questions about a career of interest. “Our live and interactive stage is designed to both entertain and inform,â€? Capper said. “We have it all‌ from science shows to cooking demos with a well known Melbourne Chef. “Whether you are thinking about your first career, considering a new career or simply want to find out about volunteer work, we will have the information to help you at our career event.â€?

Feed that wave of hunger

BY LAURA DUKE

Joe Miceli and Luca Corelli are two of the faces behind the delicious pizza and pasta at Torquay Waves.

FOR QUALITY pizza and pasta look no further than Torquay Waves in Bell Street Torquay.

With 30 pizzas, 27 pastas and a variety of meat dishes, the Italianstyle restaurant is the place to find a warm meal on a chilly night this winter.

Owner Joe Croce has been making pizzas since he was 17, and opened the business nine years ago.

“We used to only have six or seven pastas, and we’ve also added a few more pizzas along the way,� he said of the ever-expanding business.

And he doesn’t plan to stop there, revealing plans to enlarge the restaurant in the future to allow more space for dining in, as well as extend the areas for home delivery and possibly even add new items to the menu. “We strive for quality and aim to keep the customer happy – and

maintaining quality and consistency is a key,� Croce said.

Home delivery is available in Torquay and Jan Juc and “a welcoming light would be appreciated�.

Torquay Waves is also now fully licensed, so they can deliver beer and wine with your meal, or you can BYO bottled wine to the restaurant.

Torquay Waves is open seven days a week from 4pm and is located at 3/24 Bell Street, Torquay, phone 5261 3100.

Flexible super for life’s different stages

BY DARRYN JACOBS LIFE goes through so many changes – often in the blink of an eye.

Investing, planning and setting long-term goals can seem ambitious when you are young – as does planning for retirement when you are just starting a family – but laying these foundation stones early can make all the difference.

What people should be thinking about at what age depends on many factors, but there are some major turning points in life when most people need to reconsider their financial position, especially when it comes to a retirement savings plan, investment

strategies and, importantly, insurance protection.

There’s no doubt that with people’s busy lifestyles there’s often little time left to stop and consider strategies to improve their financial wellbeing.

Managing superannuation can be simplified with super accounts that are capable of evolving through a person’s different life stages, from their first job, to having a family, through to retirement.

Long-term planning for a 20-year-old university student usually revolves around what is happening next weekend. However, it is never too early to start thinking about financial planning issues and setting up a basic superannuation savings account.

a family is enough to make your bank account scream, but financial planning and family planning actually go hand in hand.

Young families paying off a mortgage should review their investments in super and ensure they have enough protection. Families with a limited cash flow can cost-effectively take out life cover and total and permanent disability insurance, as well as other essential insurance cover, such as income protection, through their super account.

Retirement, of course, should be the phase of life when people are enjoying the fruits of their labour.

To help make saving for retirement easier, people could look for super accounts that are simple and

flexible with no in-built commissions.

Everyone’s circumstances and needs are different though, so it’s important for people to seek out quality financial planning advice.

Banks now expressing caution

STANDARD economic commentary would have you believe that the Australian banking system is healthy and strong and that all is well with the Australian economy.

It is not that long ago that there was a good oldfashioned bank run that required the Australian government to step in and guarantee deposits up to $1million; a guarantee that is still in place.

Throughout this period, Australian banks have remained relatively tight-lipped about any potential vulnerability.

As such, the recent remarks made by a senior banking executive, highlighting the financial industry’s fragilities, were rather refreshing.

Joseph Healy is head of business banking at the National Australia Bank and recently indicated that the way banks lend money in Australia

and our love affair with property is bleeding investment away from other more productive sectors of the economy.

As a result of the Basel II Accord there is a bias that has led to increased household lending.

Banks can on average do three to four times more lending per dollar of capital to households.

As Mr Healy points out: “You have the perverse situation where it is actually more profitable and attractive to banks to lend to a weekend holiday home because of capital rules than it is to support a small business.�

This aggravates the strongly increasing levels of household debt, which has grown from $280billion in 2000 to $1.1trillion today. The longer term consequences are obvious with small business employing seven out of 10 workers.

Reminder for dog owners SURF Coast Shire is urging dog owners to keep in mind the need to look after their canine friends and the local environment by following four simple steps.

Mayor Libby Coker said with the Surf Coast having one of Victoria’s highest rates of dog ownership, dog owners must take extra care to consider others. “Council has designated a series of onleash, dog-free and off-leash areas to ensure we preserve public safety and protect the environment, but also provide great open spaces where dogs can play,� she said. “There are hundreds of walking tracks, parks and reserves where owners can take their pets.

We need to be mindful though that there are places and situations where dogs off leashes are not so welcome. “Owners should not that council has declared all townships in the municipality as on leash

areas unless otherwise designated. “If you’re in doubt, pick up a map from council’s Grossmans Road Service Centre that shows restrictions in individual townships as well as across the shire, or download one from council’s website.�

The four steps recommended by council are: • Observe dog restrictions, including on-leash and off-leash areas • Clean up after your dog with POOch pouches • Be careful of where your dog goes around beaches • Always keep your dog under effective control – at home and in public.

Coker said playgrounds are out of bounds for pets and dogs are not allowed off-leash within 10 metres of playground equipment.

Maps showing dog restrictions and more information are available from council’s website at www.surfcoast.vic.gov.au

Welcome to the second of our bi-monthly columns in the Surf Coast Times for 2010 where we report on some of the recent activities within our business.

Alternative Fuel Trials Alcoa Anglesea had plans to undertake and monitor the results of two alternative fuel trials in

was a trial of HiCAL40 as an alternative fuel to replace coal in the power station’s boiler. The two projects complement Alcoa’s strategic sustainability targets around conserving resources, sustaining operations and reducing waste and greenhouse gas emissions. The soy biodiesel trial is underway, however the HiCAL40 trial is on hold.

A four-month trial of an ethically sourced soybased biodiesel product at the Anglesea mining operations commenced on June 1. The product

bid to further reduce greenhouse emissions across the site. The Soy-based bio-diesel alternative fuel trial is progressing well with no reports of equipment or other issues. Alcoa will

continue to monitor the project for the remaining weeks of the alternative fuel trial. A project evaluation will occur to determine if Alcoa Anglesea will permanently switch the mine’s equipment to B20 Soydiesel.

The proposed HiCAL40 Alternative fuel aims to replace 0.5% of the current coal input with a carbon-based fuel known as HiCAL40. This alternative fuel is already successfully used in

to them. The success of these projects has led Alcoa to believe there is scope for a trial at Anglesea Power Station to determine the potential to develop new markets for the product.

Alcoa applied for an EPA Research, Development and Demonstration (RD&D) permit to conduct the trial but this not yet active and remains on hold while Alcoa continues its review into a range of technical and environmental, health and safety  � for the project has been agreed to with the Victorian EPA while the review continues.

More information on both these projects can be found at the base of this web page: http://www. alcoa.com/australia/en/info_page/anglesea_ env_plan.asp or by contacting our Community Â? Â? Â? also be discussed at the upcoming Community Consultation Network meeting.

New Waste Management Partnership

Venues across the Surf Coast and Geelong region will have a new way to collect waste and increase recycling rates, thanks to a partnership between Sustainability Victoria, the Alcoa Foundation and the Barwon Regional Waste Management Group.

Launched in early June at the Anglesea Recreation Reserve, the project aims to extend recycling efforts

sporting and recreation venues and main streets across the Surf Coast and Geelong. Recycling facilities and education programs to accompany the program will be in place in the next three years.

Dear Editor, Concerned Parents About Torquay Surfcoast Schooling (CPATSS) has just received a letter from Minister for Education, Bronwyn Pike, in relation to the issues we raised with her following the public forum on June 21.

Attached to this letter is a Torquay College Year 10-12 update (June 2010) flyer that outlines the principles and approaches to secondary school and a timeline for implementation (letter and flyer are available on our website at www.cpatss.com CPATSS is disappointed that the letter from the Minister of Education again fails to answer the questions raised at the forum, and also fails to address our request for a meeting with the minister.

The flyer attached to the letter has provided some information to the reader, but again fails to answer concerns raised by CPATSS. The flyer makes a statement of including a wide range of information and consultation process to develop the college to meet the needs and expectations of our community.

This open-ended statement does not provide a mechanism of how the consultative process will be conducted, and represent the broader community needs for Surf Coast secondary schooling.

This is by far the most information that has been provided to the community on this matter and we commend government for this.

A core focus for CPATSS has been to ensure information is available and transparent to the school community in order for parents to make informed decisions about the critically important issues regarding their children’s education – we have worked very hard to see this happen.

The information provided has little indication of future secondary school planning in our rapidly growing community.

From our data analysis it would seem that even when Torquay College 7-12 is fully operational at least 1,000 children per day will still be transported to Geelong and beyond to access secondary education.

The plan may all seem fine on paper but of course the test will be in its implementation.

CPATSS will continue to monitor information as it becomes available and provide it to the wider community via our website.

CPATSS also welcomes the opportunity to participate in planning and development committees to assist in attaining the same top-class

secondary experience already realised in the current environment at Torquay College.

Glenda Arenson On behalf of CPATSS

The time has come for a Liberal government Dear Editor, Over the past three years of this Labor government control, boat people have really come our way in force.

It is fair enough that we, in turn, try and help them and their families to lead better lives in Australia.

But when they take over the jobs of us Aussies – who then may have to be forced onto benefits – I object strongly.

I do find it strange that their boat motors seems to stop working when they get here. It’s good thinking on their behalf, as they cannot be sent back to their own countries.

Diesel motors are, in fact, very reliable – but they do not like water in their fuel and cannot be fixed at sea.

It is past time that the Labor government took a good, hard look at itself in this, and other very important issues, in which they need to change for the better.

I think it will be Liberals for me, thank you.

No need to move Ocean Grove toilet block Dear Editor, I am writing in regards to the recent article ‘Safety Concerns’ re the toilet block in the retail centre car park in Ocean Grove.

One of the main concerns regarding the current position of the toilet amenities block was the safety of elderly and children. If this is the case, then all the adjoining car parks should also be removed and allocated to a different position.

There is absolutely no difference between walking from the toilets or walking from your parked car.

The toilets are in a very convenient place for all shoppers and moving them will simply mean an inconvenience for many who wish to use these amenities.

It was also stated that the moving of the toilet block will mean there are more car parks available. This is correct as we would gain approximately six to eight car parks, except what about the loss of car parks where the new amenities block will be?

There is talk about it being behind Coles, but wherever it is will mean a loss of car parking spaces. At a minimum we would lose another six to eight spaces so there is no advantage to moving the amenities block at all.

Perhaps it would be an idea if Ocean Grove residents had a say in this matter regarding their community, rather than the Ocean Grove Community Association president saying what should or shouldn’t happen.

Residents didn’t vote for him so he is not speaking for us.

Denise Gunn Ocean Grove

Time to be upfront and honest Dear Editor, The response by Woolworths Corporate and Public Affairs to my letter of July 6 in the Surf Coast Times indicates to me that I may have hit a rather raw nerve.

It strikes me as trying to defend the indefensible.

It neglects to acknowledge that the sole purpose of Woolworth’s existence is to provide a return to shareholders.

Don’t get me wrong, I have no issue with this, however, this brings with it a requirement to be honest. There are really only two ways for Woolworths to make a profit. Either encourage more folks to use their supermarkets or reduce costs.

No amount of corporate spin would convince a rational person that requiring customers to scan their own purchases is a path in the direction of providing a greater level of service that would in turn encourage more customers.

This leaves the only conclusion to be drawn, no matter how much spin they put on it, customer scanning technology is a cost-cutting measure.

To say that 40 per cent of Torquay customers have embraced the new technology puts a smile on my face as I envisage affection-starved Torquay residents passionately relating to the new machines.

Forty per cent of customers may indeed use these machines but begrudgingly so because of the longer queues at the fewer lanes staffed in the traditional manner.

My original comments still stand; the introduction of these machines is driven by one thing and one thing alone and that is the reduction of costs and with it the reduction of job opportunities within the Torquay community.

At least be up front and honest.

healthyliving Winter means sports injuries 18

WITH the footy season in full swing, no matter which code you subscribe to, or other winter sports you choose, injuries may be taking their toll.

Hamstring injuries are most common at this time of the year, especially in the faster running sports. Back pain can also be a problem and often occurs along with hamstring issues.

A recent research study has found that Australian footballers have significantly more severe low back pain than non-athletes.

Symptoms worsen as the level of competition increases.

Low back pain is commonly reported in elite soccer players, while shoulder injury and low back pain occurrences are also high in rugby league players.

To minimise the risk of injury it is important to adequately prepare for the game.

This includes regular maintenance, good nutrition, appropriate warm up and warm down protocols, including stretching before and after a game, being prepared with a proper training regime, easing back into exercise after a break and hydration on the field.

Chiropractors recommend that anyone returning to sport after

Tuesday 27 July 2010

a break consider a visit to their local chiropractor to tune up their body and make sure it is ready to go for the season.

Seeking assistance for problems during the season may also help to reduce the severity and recurrence of symptoms.

Chiropractors are five-year university trained, government regulated and registered healthcare professionals who specialise in the diagnosis and management of spinal health related problems.

Increasingly, professional sporting teams are adding a sports chiropractor to their health care staff to help players maintain their structural health both before and after the game.

No matter what sport you play, you will be placing your body under structural stress. There are benefits to be had in ensuring your body has a regular tune up and is ready to perform at its peak – in the same way that you would regularly book your car in for a service.

Compiled by Dr Tanya Ball, Chiropractor, Surfcoast Chiropractic Clinic, from CAA materials.

Dieters wanted for website trial PEOPLE who are serious about losing weight are being asked to help CSIRO develop a web-based diet management programme.

The CSIRO Preventative Health Flagship is calling for volunteers to try out a pilot ‘online social network’ in which they get access to free diet and health information, recipes and chat sessions.

CSIRO is asking participants to sign up for 12 weeks, starting in early August.

CSIRO ICT research scientist, Dr Shlomo Berkovsky, said the trial aims to understand how online tools, such as discussion groups and chat sessions, can play a role in providing social support to dieters. “People who diet with their families and friends tend to lose more weight,� Dr Berkovsky said. “We want to see if we can create an online support system by putting you in touch with other people who are going on the

same journey.�

The online diet programme will help make meal planning and shopping easier. It learns what you like to eat, what you have or haven’t eaten recently and suggests recipes for you to try.

It will also create a shopping list based on your meal plans.

Participants must be over 18, be overweight or obese and have regular access to an internet-connected computer.

Anyone interested in signing up can do so at www.fhl.csiro.au CSIRO adheres to strict privacy guidelines, and personal information collected will not be distributed to any other party and will be used for scientific reasons only.

Berkovsky said the names and other details given by participants will never be disclosed, and they are free to withdraw from the programme at any time, with CSIRO deleting all personal information.

Show your support

THE LEUKAEMIA Foundation is calling on Surf Coast and Bellarine Peninsula residents to support one of its major fundraisers of the year – Light the Night.

The evening – to be held at Eastern Beach Reserve in Geelong on Saturday, September 1 – is an inspiring event to remember, celebrate and give hope to people living with leukaemias, lymphomas, myeloma and related blood disorders, and their families.

The foundation aims to raise $1.8million through Light the Night to fund blood cancer research and free services to support the estimated 40,000 Australians currently living blood cancers or related blood disorders.

Families, friends and colleagues will gather at twilight to give witness to hope for a better future by carrying coloured balloons with a tiny light inside. The balloons are coloured according to the following: • Gold to REMEMBER a loved one • White to CELEBRATE being a blood cancer survivor • Blue to GIVE HOPE and show support.

Now in its second year, Light the Night will be an inspiring

night as local ambassadors relate their experiences and lead gentle evening walks.

In the weeks leading up the events, registrants raise funds for blood cancer research and free support services to support patients and their families “I helped to Light the Night at an inaugural event last year. It was stunning to see thousands of illuminated gold, white and blue balloons against the night sky,� said Stephanie Hechenberger, general manager of the Leukaemia Foundation in Victoria and Tasmania.

This year, it is projected that 2,480 Victorians will be diagnosed with leukaemia, lymphoma or myeloma each week and blood cancer will be the second biggest cancer killer in Australia after lung cancer. “Light the Night is a powerful expression of Australia’s blood cancer battles and this year, Victorians can help to give hope in a brighter future simply by attending,� said Hechenberger.

Light the Night will be held in 25 locations across Australia.

Helping young people make the transition YOUNG people leaving out-of-home care now have easier access to a comprehensive package of supports to help them make the transition from foster care, kinship care and supported accommodation to more independent lives.

Visiting the Leaving Care Helpline headquarters at Melbourne Citymission last week, Minister for Community Services and Member for Bellarine, Lisa Neville, officially launched a one-stop-shop for advice and assistance. “Just like most teenagers, those living in outof-home care need support when they take the step from living at home with their carers to

living more independently,� Neville said. “The Brumby Labor Government understands this step can be a stressful and confusing time, that is why we have set up the Leaving Care Helpline. “Around 2,000 young Victorians aged between 16 and 21 will be eligible each year to receive help from this new service. “They will receive practical help finding accommodation, education advice and financial assistance, as well as general support and practical advice either in person or via the Helpline. “Supports can include brokerage funding for

Hearing clinic comes to Torquay GOOD hearing is integral to good communication and quality of life.

The ability to hear is essential at all ages – whether it is a child hearing their classroom teacher’s instructions, a husband hearing about his wife’s day or a grandparent being able to hear the punch-line of a family joke over dinner; our hearing is important.

But did you know that hearing loss is the world’s single most common disability?

The fact is, the majority of people who suffer from hearing impairment don’t have to, and improving the hearing problem can result in a significant improvement in their quality of life.

Surf Coast Hearing Clinic is a new, local audiology clinic based in Torquay, which understands hearing

impairment and knows that hearing problems can be solved.

The clinic’s university trained audiologists provide full hearing assessments for adults and children (aged four years and over).

The clinic will fully inform you about your options, whether it is through appropriate medical intervention, fitting of a digital hearing device or through a communication/rehabilitation programme to assist you with your everyday hearing needs.

If you or a member of the family has any concerns with their hearing, phone Surf Coast Hearing Clinic to make an appointment on 5264 7451, or simply drop in to the clinic at Suite 5, 6 Walker St, Torquay.

Grants up for grabs SURF Coast and Bellarine community groups can help seniors access a new world of information and communication by applying for Telstra Connected Seniors workshop grants worth up to $50,000.

Grant amounts range up to $5,000 for local community organisations and up to $50,000 for state and territory organisations. Eligible community organisations can apply for Telstra Connected Seniors grants at www.telstraseniors.com.au until 5pm Wednesday, August 18.

Telstra consumer executive director, Jenny Young, said the Telstra Connected Seniors workshops enable older Australians to embrace the digital age and enter a new, exciting communication horizon.

“The workshops have been strongly attended across the country as older Australians are keen to learn how to communicate and access information using their computer and mobile phones,� Young said. “The workshops are conducted by experts in a friendly and comfortable environment where seniors learn specifically tailored skills at their own pace. “Once seniors have mastered the basics at the workshops, they can then revise their skills and learn other communication skills by accessing the online ‘how to’ guides log at www.telstraseniors.com.au.�

Telstra area general manager Geelong and the Surf Coast, Jodi Manion, said modern day technology can be easily embraced by all community members to help overcome isolation. “Everyone, no matter their age or background, can learn about modern technology at these workshops and the vast array of advantages they present,� she said. “Workshop attendees will learn how to send and receive emails and text messages, which is the ideal way to keep in touch with family members who live in and out of town. “More often, migrant groups have friends and relatives who live overseas and the workshops

will teach their members how to use features such as sending photographs and videos. While people living in rural and regional areas always enjoy learning new ways to keep in touch. “And of course everyone can benefit from learning how to do online banking and shopping, as well as how to stay in touch on social networks which are increasingly popular with seniors.�

Not-for-profit community organisations with a primary member base of people age over 60 are eligible to apply.

Organisations that have previously received grants and successfully completed their training can reapply for further funding.

New health cards issued

DEPARTMENT of Veterans’ Affairs clients will have their new Repatriation Health Cards delivered by the end of next month.

The new and improved cards are being mailed out over an eight-week period, and some clients may have already received theirs.

Minister for Veterans’ Affairs and Minister for Defence Personnel, Alan Griffin said around 40,000 new gold, white and orange cards began arriving in the letterboxes of clients earlier this month.

Griffin said to coincide with old Repatriation Health Cards expiring this year, new cards had been designed to include a number of new and improved features. “New cards will now have a magnetic strip which Drysdale Senior Citizens Club president, Mary Wilson, and members, Glenys McKenzie and June Naylor, will contain data including the veteran’s full name, prepare a nutritious ‘home-cooked’ lunch for local seniors on Wednesdays – one of many services provided by the club. To find out more about the weekly activities and events at Drysdale Senior Citizens Club, call in at the file number, card type and expiry date,� he said. centrally-located venue in Wyndham Street or phone 5251 2983. “Micro-printing and the addition of a DVA-

registered hologram will ensure enhanced security and reduce the likelihood of reproduction. “New cards will work the same way as Medicare or private health fund cards – just one swipe will enable health providers to immediately access the client’s information and streamline the claims process.�

Griffin said for the first time, all clients living overseas will be issued with a Repatriation Health Card. “Distributing cards to clients residing overseas will remove the need for them to contact the Department to obtain a ‘letter of authority’ when seeking medical treatment within Australia,� he said.

Griffin said health providers will accept both the old and new cards during the transition process. “These new cards will ensure veterans receive a more efficient service when visiting their local health provider,� he said.

The trip of a lifetime GEELONG Lutheran College student, Reife Braun, is only 12-years-old but is preparing to set off on an experience of a lifetime next week.

Reife and his father will fly out to the African village of Kande, Malawi, on August 3 for a threeweek adventure he expects to learn a great deal from.

The father and son team will be members of a 10-person work party for the Mphatso Children’s Foundation and will be helping to build a nursery school for children aged two to six years.

Reife said they will also help to construct a maize, or corn, mill to grind the maize needed to make porridge for the children.

“The maize porridge costs about 10 cents per bowl; and a lot of the people in Malawi cannot afford food so they starve,” he explained.

“Mphatso Children’s Foundation provides a free bowl of porridge every day to over 1,000 children in the nursery schools, some children walk up to two hours to get their free bowl of porridge.

“This experience will change my life and I look forward to seeing how I can use my experience to benefit others in the future and help Malawi and others in need.”

For further information about the foundation’s work in Malawi, go to www.mphatso.org

A monster of a fair ONE of the State’s largest book offerings, the Geelong West Rotary Club’s ‘Monster Book Fair’, will be held early next month.

Opening times are 11am-5pm Friday, 9am-5pm Saturday and 10am-2pm Sunday.

Thousands of books will be on offer at just $1 for soft-covers and $2 for hard-covers.

All funds raised go to local and other Rotary

charities.

The fair will be officially opened on the Friday at 7.30pm by Margaret Clark, awardwinning Geelong author of best-selling teen and children’s books who, more recently, has had her first adult fiction published.

Cost for entry to the official opening is $10 which includes refreshments and finger food.

Realise your dream at Estuary Senior auctioneers’ competition 2010 ADRIAN Butera from Compton & Green won the highly coveted REIV Senior Auctioneers’ Competition, beating a firstclass field of contestants.

In order to win, Butera displayed a high degree of technical proficiency and professionalism, skills he will now use in his attempt at the Australasian Real Estate Institutes’ Auctioneering Championships in New Zealand in September.

He will be joined in that event by runnerup Matthew Young from Buxton (St Kilda) Pty Ltd. The REIV conducts a yearly competition to find the best novice and senior auctioneers in Victoria.

The purpose of this competition is twofold: it helps estate agents to develop and improve their skills; and it offers the industry an opportunity to highlight the skills required to conduct a successful auction and achieve the highest return for the vendor.

Victoria is the residential auction capital of Australia and people expect not only an interesting auction but one that gets the best return possible for the owner.

Entrants are judged by some of Victoria’s most experienced auctioneers on their understanding of the laws and regulations that relate to property transactions, as well as their ability to run the auction professionally and present the property.

This year’s finalists were: Adrian Butera of Compton & Green; Peter Clark of Clark First National; Richard James of Jellis Craig; Alisha Hobart of Harcourts; and Matthew Young of Buxton (St Kilda) Pty Ltd.

Starting on page 57 To submit information for the industry news page, please forward photographs or editorial to: advertising@surfcoasttimes.com.au

by Wednesdays at noon.

ideal time for first home buyers.

“This new stage at Estuary includes a range of lots well suited to young couples and families – and with up to $26,500 available in first home buyers boosts – it is a fantastic time to buy,” he said.

“Stage 3B presents an affordable opportunity for buyers to break into the property market, with lots priced from just $147,000, Estuary offers one of the best value new home options in the Geelong region.

“With over 130 sales in the past nine months, it is clear Estuary is proving popular with buyers.

“As well as traditional home sites, an array of house and land packages are also available at Estuary presenting a simple and affordable way to buy and build from the ground up.”

Estuary’s stage 3B allotments are well positioned within the Estuary masterplan, just moments from

the estate’s central community park and walking distance from planned wetlands and the future fivehectare recreation reserve.

“With nearby shopping, schools and the beautiful Lake Connewarre, buyers will enjoy a plethora of lifestyle opportunities, and all just 10 minutes from both Geelong city and the coast at Ocean Grove,” Cottesloe said.

“Estuary will offer future residents the best of both worlds in a safe and secure small-town environment at Leopold.”

For more information on Estuary and the release of stage 3B, contact Alan Smith on 1300 737 598 or visit the onsite sales office located off Melaluka Road Leopold, open from 12noon to 5pm daily.

For more, visit www.estuaryleopold.com.au or www.villawoodproperties.com.au

Leopold’s Estuary development is located near the banks of Lake Connewarre.

Warralily on display WARRALILY, Geelong’s first master-planned residential community, is set to become the region’s most sought after address for home hunters with the announcement of plans for a new display village within the estate.

Due for completion mid-2011, the display village will be accessed off Barwon Heads Road and will feature the latest in home designs from some of the region’s most acclaimed builders.

According to Warralily sales and marketing manager, Crystall Mousios, it will be the largest display village in Geelong.

“The display village will feature 55 home designs from 23 local and metropolitan builders, however, residents will not be restricted to using one of these builders,” she said.

“We know building a new home can be stressful and the purpose of Warralily’s display village is to help make those decisions easier by providing a wide variety of home designs and layouts you can touch and feel.”

Each home will provide home builders with a ‘life size’ representation of the Warralily Design

Guidelines, which have been established to enhance the overall character of the community.

“The aim of these guidelines is to protect each resident’s investment by creating a consistently high quality standard of homes and a community that all residents can be proud of.”

Mousios emphasised Warralily’s focus on creating a sustainable community, with ‘intelligent solutions’ proposed to achieve minimal water and energy use.

“This will include access to recycled water for parklands and private gardens and an advanced fibre optic network, connecting residents to high speed broadband, access to Pay TV without the need for a satellite dish and access to a unique community intranet with information on community events, forums and message boards,” she said.

With residential lots already being snapped up, homebuyers are encouraged to register their interest via the Warralily website to stay up to date with activities and future land releases.

LEOPOLD’S premier new residential development ‘Estuary’ is set to become a haven for first home buyers, with developer Villawood Properties’ recent release of 15 new land lots in stage 3B. Strong demand for lots at Estuary has led to the early release of stage 3B, which offers a mix of allotments ranging in size from 438sqm to 597sqm and affordably priced from just $147,000.

Located in the bourgeoning new suburb of Leopold, first time buyers at Estuary will be well positioned to benefit from the Government’s new regional First Home Buyers Boost.

Presenting a $26,500 grant for buyers building their first home in regional Victoria, the boost is now available to buyers (introduced July 1, 2010).

WRECK OF THE ‘JOSEPH H SCAMMELL’ CONT.: Extracts from ‘History of Torquay’ by James A Baines 1938 The deckhouse now assumed a new role. The history of the Joseph H Scammell, and the seaside cottage “Scammell House� in Pride St, Torquay. The scroll-work of the wrecked ship’s quarterdeck is retained as ornamentation on the verandah, and many fittings bear the ship’s inscriptions. The narrow door gives ingress and egress to the old saloon, the living room on the lower floor of this double decker cottage. Portholes provide light in the north & south walls. All available fittings and timbers were secured from the wreckage to fit out the cottage. Some relics were stolen, but the atmosphere of the ‘ Joseph H. Scammell ervades the building.

THE COMING MONTHS

PROPERTY REPORTS

We can again report excellent sales volumes & results from your dedicated sales team. A record land sale in Jan Juc & top results in home sales have been achieved over the cooler months. There has also been several exceptional sales in the rural area in and around Bellbrae / Bells Beach. The market remains buoyant across all sectors & we are seeing time on the market decreasing whilst prices across the board continue to escalate.

Stock levels have remained constant for the last few months after a dramatic drop in availabilities as we moved out of the effects of the GFC late 2009.

Despite the cooler weather enquiry is strong though naturally numbers around town are down. As buyer confidence continues to improve we see further decreases in stock levels which can only impact positively on prices.

If you are considering selling we would be pleased to view your property at a time convenient to yourselves and provide a current market appraisal and report.

Our report will include recent sales, availabilities, market conditions and options for marketing and selling programs.

YOUR GUIDE TO BUILDING & CONSTRUCTION ON THE SURF COAST & BELLARINE

Class and style with Derbyshire LOCAL boutique builder Derbyshire prides itself on its beautiful custom designed homes and first-class finishing.

Noel Derbyshire and his team specialise in building homes that are designed to suit their clients’ land and lifestyle.

This uncompromising approach is captured by Derybshire’s architect-designed Platinum Series One display home in Highton.

The award-wining three-bedroom home is a breathtaking example of intricate attention to detail and clever contemporary design.

The Platinum Series One has a six-star energy rating and offers sophisticated, stylish living that would be equally at home in a coastal or city setting.

From the street it makes a stunning first impression with its eyecatching façade that combines glass, cladding, smoked pine and feature stonework.

This effective use of materials continues inside where the plantation spotted gum floors bring warmth to the contemporary colour palette.

European floor-to-ceiling windows wrap around the front living room to create a light-filled environment that is balanced by the natural texture of a stone feature wall.

Budding ‘Masterchefs’ will be at home in the nearby kitchen which features white two-pack joinery, a mocha-toned Wathaurong glass splashback and Caesar stone island bench with twin under mount sinks.

It also boasts premium stainless steel appliances, quality fittings and spacious walk-in pantry housing the fridge, small appliances and ample bench space.

The kitchen overlooks a built-in day bed which sits beneath a large picture window flanked by bookshelves. Tucked behind the kitchen is a clever study nook that neatly combines a desk, shelving and built-in filing cabinets.

The dining area opens onto an expansive outdoor deck. Large sliding doors on the other side of the deck flow through to a second light-filled living room. Down the hallway you discover a family bathroom and two spacious bedrooms. Downstairs also has a large laundry, powder room and double garage access.

A beautiful timber staircase flows to an upstairs master bedroom retreat with large en suite, master bedroom, study nook and a spacious walk-in robe that would get the Carrie Bradshaw tick of approval with its rows of shoe racks, generous hanging space, drawers and two wall mirrors.

The home’s architectural design rates highly for energy through its clever use of cross ventilation, a double insulated roof, thermal

surfcoasttimes.com.au

mass and double glazed windows. These sustainable elements ensure that even on a bitterly cold day the interior remains beautifully warm without having to switch on the ducted heating.

The total size is 43.5 squares incorporating 33.3 squares of residence, 5.2 squares of garage and five squares of deck.

The Platinum Range Series One is $650,000 (on your land).

Derbyshire custom homes start from $300,000 (on your land).

The Platinum Range Series One at Lot 143 Province Boulevard Highton (Mel ref: 450 K8) is open weekends from 1pm-5pm or by appointment by contacting Noel on 0407 524 406.

Designs turned upside down GJ GARDNER has a new plan for everyone to enjoy the views If you’ve been longing to maximise the views from your new block with two-storey-living, then GJ Gardner Homes Skyward range has plenty to offer.

Boasting 11 eye-catching designs in the series, the Skyward range offers two-storey homes with a twist – living areas upstairs.

“Often multi-storey living featured the bedrooms on the top floor but the Skyward series turned this idea on its own head,” said GJ Gardner Homes Geelong local builder, Rohan Smith.

“We’ve got a mixture to offer people choice.

“This range is perfect for people who have a view and desire that outlook from upstairs.”

Smith said a feature of the Skyward range was the flexibility it offered.

“We offer some different facade options and what sets us apart is a combination of upstairs and downstairs living

options,” he said.

Besides contemporary and classic facade options, GJ Gardner Homes also offer the flexibility of personalising the facade.

Sizes range from 24 to 38 squares and everything in between.

The 29-square Lynx features four bedrooms, two bathrooms.

It has a study, an open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area downstairs while upstairs has a separate living room with a balcony.

The 38-square Arista is more traditional in its design with the living space on the ground and three bedrooms and a library on the first floor.

The Tucana boasts the best of both worlds and has two bedrooms, a study and an activity room on the lower level while upstairs features the master bedroom and the open-plan kitchen, meals and family zone.

For more information phone GJ Gardner Homes Geelong on 5221 1447.

National Builders for a structurally sound home NATIONAL Builders Group have made a structural framing breakthrough, offering the most superior and environmentally friendly structural house framing option exclusively to customers at no extra charge.

National Builders Group offer termite protected ‘blue’ timber framing to the whole house and all load bearing outer walls are framed with 90mm x 45mm studs at 450mm centres, giving greater strength and reliability and are totally vermin proof.

The great thing about the National Builders Group termite protected ‘blue’ timber framing is that the treatment process involves the application of organic insecticides, safe and widely used in household consumer products, which are safe to handle and pose no significant threat to humans, plants and animals, but are toxic to termites.

This offers the opportunity for National Builders to provide a 25-year structural guarantee to customers – some conditions may apply.

National Builders Group recognises that structural framing is made from

natural timber grown and harvested from managed renewable plantation pine. As a result the following benefits apply: • No rainforest timber or endangered species are used • Plantation timbers grow on solar energy • Timber absorbs and reduces greenhouse gases.

That’s right, trees absorb greenhouse gases during growth while releasing oxygen into the atmosphere whilst storing carbon.

These timbers require low energy for growth and production, transport and installation.

So, there you have it, National Builders Group provides the very best of structural integrity within your new home in an environmentally friendly manner.

And that’s not all – National Builders Group also offer a long list of ultrapremium inclusions with no extra charge.

To find out more, visit 16 Ironbark Street, Waurn Ponds, phone 5241 8355 or go to www.nationalbuilders.com.au

Hotondo on display at Portarlington HOTONDO Homes Ocean Grove has opened a new display home in Portarlington.

The Dakota 267 is located at 8 The Rise, Portarlington, and is the first Hotondo Homes display to be built on the Bellarine Peninsula. The home is a 27.8square design featuring four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two spacious living areas.

“We’re excited to open our Dakota 267 display to the public so we can show off all the hard work we’ve put into the construction and presentation of the home over the last six months,’’ Hotondo’s Allie Barker said.

“It’s the first Hotondo Homes display to be built on the Bellarine Peninsula and showcases one of our most popular family-friendly designs.’’

The Dakota 267 begins with a formal living room that could be used as a home theatre. Also adjoining the entrance hall is the master bedroom with a double walk-in robe and en suite. In the centre of the home is a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and family area that opens out to an alfresco area for year round

entertaining.

The kitchen is a standout feature of the home due to its generous walk-in pantry and direct access to the attached double garage. Three remaining bedrooms are positioned at the rear of the home off the open-plan area. Each has a built-in robe and easy access to the central bathroom.

Hotondo Homes Ocean Grove has house and land packages available at the Arlington Rise estate in Portarlington. To view a large range of floor plans and products visit the sales office and showroom located on the corner of Grubb Road and Sinclair Street, Ocean Grove.

Festival set for success

BY NATHAN HALE INTEREST in the inaugural Anglesea Music Festival continues to grow, with early bird ticket sales pointing to a busy weekend of local entertainment.

The festival – to be held on October 8, 9 and 10 – continues the proud tradition the Surf Coast and Bellarine Peninsula have for nurturing local talent and showcasing music to the region.

Festival director, Karren Stoneham, said with the festival less than three months away, excitement continued to build. “The Surf Coast has so much to offer with musos from all walks of life,� she said. “And our footprint will be having the mix between grassroots and highly acclaimed performers. It’s exciting, it’s a reality and it’s very affordable with all that festivals have to offer and very much a festival to attend.�

Early bird tickets are priced at $50 for an adult weekend pass to the festival – something which has evolved from the highly successful Anglesea Live concept. “The initiative grew from Anglesea Live – which has been a longstanding part of the Anglesea Community since 1999,� Stoneham said. “Now, after a decade, Anglesea Live is set to expand into an annual festival. “The Anglesea Music Festival will showcase a wide range of genres, with an aim to find a

balance of local, regional and well known bands while celebrating all that is good about the area’s community, environment and music. “There are some great acts that have put their hands up to perform at this first event; Wendy Stapleton, Lisa Edwards, Paul Norton and Michael Christian. “Wow! What a foursome. Truly Australian icons of the music scene, all poised from phenomenal success both here and internationally.�

Legend of the Australian blues-rock scene, Chris Wilson, will work his pipes and harmonica at the festival while also offering a harmonica workshop. The Band Who Knew Too Much is a bona-fide foolproof floorpacking highly energetic act kicking out their double bass, washboard, and accordion and driving tracks with gusto.

Dave Steel is a highly respected rootsrock multi instrumentalist musician, who will perform solo, with his band the Welcome Wagon and Tiffany Eckhardt. Steel and Eckhardt are one of the most dynamic couples in the Australian blues-folk scene.

Along with the acts performing, a number of musicians will also host workshops throughout the festival – sharing the secrets of their success.

Numerous other acts have also been confirmed for the three-day festival, with all information on the website, visit www. angleseamusicfest.com

Adelaide songstress Lisa Edwards will be one of the drawcards at October’s Anglesea Music Festival.

n THE PLATE

with Mary-Ellen Belleville

“Just gimme some steam!�

THERE I was, leaping about the lounge-room, lip-synching and mirroring every carefully choreographed step Peter Gabriel makes in his scintillating rock concert filmed in Rome. Having watched this DVD many times over, I know all the lyrics and every suggestive move he makes – yep, I’m an unabashed fan!

One of his well known songs features the lyric “just gimme some steam� and whilst I was getting all hot ’n’ bothered, I began thinking about dinner, and what a versatile, healthy, easy method steaming is for getting the evening meal ready in minimum time – with maximum flavour!

Flavoursome, low-fat meals using a delightfully simple method of cooking are just the ticket for anyone working full time who arrives home to peer into the fridge, and then decide what’s for dinner?

Steaming retains all the vitamins and minerals, the colour and natural flavours of foods, leaving moist, tender and tasty meals of vegetables, fish and chicken.

And having consumed these wonderfully slimming meals, you can then splurge on dessert –

delicious steamed puddings or custards – without batting an eyelid to the diet-police (or your own conscience)!

There are some wonderful steam ovens now available for the domestic kitchen and in so many ways these are a much more useful option than giving space to a microwave oven. In my opinion they are more useful in any kitchen, and in many ways better than steaming on the stovetop, however, you can improvise by using a wok or large saucepan with a stack of the simple bamboo baskets in which to layer the food.

A handy tip is to line the steamer with a sheet of baking paper, or if cooking a whole fish, layers of sliced lemon and herbs. This prevents the food sticking to the rack.

Some steamers are designed for specific foods, such as the asparagus kettle or a fish kettle. The principle is the same – all steamers cook food in gentle vapours that rise from the liquid, be it stock or water.

Often the bubbling liquid below the food can be a part of the meal, for example, a light broth, which

at serving time becomes part of the fish, chicken or vegetables that have been cooked above it.

When steaming food, the liquid needs to simmer fiercely – yet if the heat is too high, foods can become waterlogged, soggy or tough.

To cook a whole large fish such as a snapper of 3-4kg, you will be amazed at how tender the flesh will be if you simply bring the steamer up to a rapid simmer, cook for 10 minutes, and then turn the heat off, leaving the fish in the steamer with a lid on.

Allow it to rest 10-15 minutes in the steamer before serving.

Asian style chicken If you wish to cook a whole chicken, with Asianstyle flavours, simply pop some slithers of fresh ginger and a stem of lemongrass into the cavity of the chicken, brush the entire skin with soy and steam for one hour. The difference in the texture of the flesh is amazing.

These are starting points; as I have said, recipes can be a bit like brief navigational directions – I’ll point you in the general direction then you

experiment and use your imagination.

Steaming is a great way to re-heat leftover meals as well. The night before I’d marinated and barbecued some butterflied quail and two little birds were left. So for a light meal the next evening I made a simple salad, dressed with a chilli vinaigrette and topped it with the quail which I had steamed for about four minutes. They tasted just as delicious as if they’d just been on the barbecue.

Steamed puddings Whole fruits such as peeled pears, rhubarb, or (when they come into season) peaches and nectarines are simply stunning steamed – the retention of the natural colours and the flavour will knock you over.

Serve them in a bowl with some gently steamed banana and ginger puddings. Simply adapt your favourite banana cake/muffin recipe by adding some finely diced glace ginger, a good dash of cinnamon, and spoon the mixture into individual tea cups (or dariole moulds) and steam them for 35 minutes.

Almost as delish a dish as Peter Gabriel! Now, it’s back to the concert.

Stenlake to light up the morning SEASON Two of the Geelong Performing Arts Centre’s popular Musical Mornings programme will see the highly talented Ian Stenlake take to the stage next month.

Stenlake will appear on Wednesday and Thursday, August 4 and 5, from 10.30am in The Playhouse.

Stenlake (pictured), who has recently starred as officer Mike Flynn in the Channel Nine drama Sea Patrol, made a tremendous splash starring as Sky Masterton in the stage classic Guys and Dolls, opposite his Sea Patrol co-star, Lisa McCune.

Stenlake also played Oscar Stone in TV’s Stingers – a role he left to take the lead role of Cliff in the Australasian tour of Cabaret.

In Eureka the Musical he fought for a fair go, and he recently shone in the lead role of Curly in Oklahoma! His rousing rendition of Oh, What a Beautiful Morning is a highlight for all ages.

Stenlake brings a sparkling show full of wonderful musical theatre highlights and with his rich voice and commanding stage presence this will be a Musical Morning not to be missed.

Musical Mornings concerts are sponsored by Tuckers Funeral and Bereavement Services, with pre-show performers and exhibits in the GPAC foyer, presented by the region’s various cultural communities with thanks to Diversitat.

Patrons are also invited to enjoy free tea and coffee before shows, and to stay and chat afterwards over lunch in the GPAC Café.

To book tickets, phone the GPAC Box Office on 5225 1200 or visit www.gpac.org.au

When only the ‘Best’ will do A+E news in brief Queesncliff drawing class

SALT Contemporary Art Gallery in Queenscliff will host a Tutored Life Drawing Class this Sunday.

The class will be presented by David Beaumont, and will be held at the Hesse Street Gallery from 3pm-4pm. The life-drawing class will cater for both beginners who have not previously drawn from the life model, and for those looking to further develop their skills. Numbers are limited and bookings essential – so be quick. A fee of $20 includes materials and participants are requested to bring an easel or board. Tables will also be available. For more information or to book your spot, phone 5258 3988.

THE GREAT Western wine region of Victoria produces some remarkable reds – Shiraz being its Tour de Force.

Indeed, some are in my all time favourites list for sure. One of the most revered producers from this stellar region is Best’s wines by the Thomson family.

The key to their formidable reputation is, of course, longevity – longevity in the wines, the vineyard and five generations of family involvement in the winery.

The short history lesson is that the original vines were planted

by Henry Best, way back in 1868, with the Thomson family purchasing the property in 1922 and continuing their winemaking history through to today.

The custodian of this incredible iconic Australian winery and vineyard is fourth generation winemaking ‘legend’ Viv Thomson, who’s clocked up 50 vintages now and is currently co-nominated with his protégé, Adam Wadewitz, for Gourmet Traveller’s ‘Winemaker of the Year 2010’.

This is well and truly long overdue but deserving recognition for a highly skilled veteran winemaker of Viv’s standing, one who’s intimate knowledge and respect for the vineyard, it’s site, soil, and growing conditions sees him allow the wines to reflect and fully express the combination of all these factors in his wines.

Here’s a few you might like to get to know…

Best’s Great Western Bin ‘1’ Shiraz 2008 ($30)

The colour is gloriously deep and dark, brooding with layers of concentrated plummy black fruits, dark chocolate, pepper and spice. There’s an ever-so-slight lick of creamy vanillin oak rounding out the rich palate but this only adds to the ‘more-ish’ nature of the wine. The feel is elegant, rather than powerful and makes for great drinking now, but this wine will continue to develop over the next 5 years.

ons Congratulahotite l th e be ac h

Best’s Great Western Bin ‘0’ Shiraz 2007 ($65)

Fairly limited and hard to find due to the vintage seeing some of the toughest growing conditions on record, yet this wine has overcome the setbacks and picked up a Gold Medal at The Royal Melbourne Wine Show in 2009. Think essence of rich dark blood plums and blackberry fruit, dark chocolate, and savoury/meaty spice allied with intense raspberry, cherry and rose petal floral fragrance on the nose. A triumph!

It’s not all about red up there and I thought I’d include their very likeable Chardonnay in this review. Lovely and full flavoured, this wine shows stone-fruit, an edge of green apple tartness, and melon fruit characters which are all held together by the tight mineral acidity that keeps the wine structured, allowing no ‘fatness’ or ‘flabby’ textures on the palate. French oak plays a part but only a minor, more integrated role. In all, a balanced and enjoyable Chardonnay.

The gig – to be held from 8.30pm – will see the quartet bring their lively show to the Bellarine for a one-off performance.

Spyndrift’s music is raw, grungy, bouncy, frisky, provocative, sassy and sweet, inspired by reggae ska combined with catchy lyrics and a down to earth message.

And if that doesn’t catch your imagination, the band describes the show as “vibrant, burlesque, explosive, captivating, theatrical and memorable�.

Band members Elle Wood, Hoya Wolfgang and Merin Trebilcock have performed in numerous musical outfits together and separately for more than 20 years.

They also have a depth of experience and skills in theatre, children’s pantomimes, workshops, puppetry and

In 2004 Trebilcock teamed up with Richard Collopy – an experienced and seasoned musician – and Spyndrift was born.

With a plethora of songs under their belt their selfproduced album Sound Swell was recorded in 2006-07.

Since then the music has undergone a steady metamorphous from laidback groove to a dynamic and highly energetic show.

Capping their rise to fame, Spyndrift won the 2010 Vic Hunt Memorial Music Award at the Sleepy Hollow Blues Club in Gee long.

Return of some old favourites THE 2010 Alcoa Theatre Season continues at Geelong Performing Arts Centre with a very special show starring two of Australia’s most loved performers.

Nearly 20 years after they last appeared as the bickering Beare brothers in ABC TV’s Mother & Son, Garry McDonald and Henri Szeps reunite for Halpern and Johnson, an award-winning drama about two very different men with one surprising thing in common.

The classic grumpy old man, Joseph Halpern (Szeps) is a recent widower who seems incapable of expressing his sense of loss and love for his deceased wife, Florence.

At her graveside he is joined by a stranger, Dennis Johnson (McDonald), who unexpectedly describes Florence with more affection than just a dear, departed friend…

With warmth and wit, Lionel Goldstein’s play explores the complex web of marriage and friendship, secrets and lies, mixing sharp human insight with cracking humour.

McDonald and Szeps are brilliant as these two polar opposites in this touching and funny play about love, loyalty and betrayal.

The Ensemble Theatre’s sell-out 2007 production demonstrated that their chemistry as performers has not diminished since their Mother & Son days.

Ensemble Theatre’s Halpern and Johnson appears in The Playhouse at GPAC tomorrow through until Saturday, as part of the 2010 Alcoa

67

Theatre Season.

Big screen dreams WANT to be the next big director, animator or game developer? Screen It is a great way to test your creative and research skills and showcase them on a national scale.

The filmmaking competition, run by the Australian Centre for the Moving Image (ACMI) is open to school-aged students enrolled in primary and secondary education around Australia.

More than 160 school groups and individual entrants have already registered to take part in this year’s challenge. Registration is free and entries close at 5pm on Friday, September 17.

Screen It’s young filmmakers learn about interesting topics by researching current issues such as this year’s theme, The Environment. Who Cares?, which has been designed to resonate with Australian students, particularly their concern about the state of the environment and issues of global sustainability.

It also coincides with the International Year of Biodiversity, declared by the United Nations.

Of course, it wouldn’t be a competition without great prizes (including a state-of-the-art portable projector from Mitsubishi Electric for the primary and secondary schools with the best overall entries), and the rewards extend to being featured at the annual awards ceremony in Melbourne and having work showcased online and to visitors of ACMI.

Four of the festival’s best THE MELBOURNE International Film Festival (MIFF) returns to the Geelong Performing Arts Centre this weekend for a special event.

On Sunday, MIFF@GPAC will feature four of the best films from MIFF’s 2010 programme – screened over one day in The Playhouse at GPAC – providing a fantastic opportunity for movie lovers of the Geelong region to see films that they might never see anywhere else.

Home By Christmas The day begins at 11am with Home By Christmas, a film memoir based on New Zealand director Gaylene Preston’s interviews with her father about his World War II experiences.

On his way home from rugby practice, Ed Preston joined the New Zealand army. He promised his pregnant wife Tui he’d be home by Christmas – but four years would pass before his return, after escaping a prison camp in Italy.

Matching Jack At 1pm is Matching Jack, the latest work from the acclaimed Australian filmmaking duo Nadia Tass and David Parker, creators of Malcolm and The Big Steal.

Starring James Nesbitt, Richard Roxburgh,

Jacinda Barrett and Colin Friels, Matching Jack tells the story of an inner-urban Melbourne family turned upside down when their young son, Jack, is diagnosed with leukemia, and his father’s years of infidelity come to light.

The Disappearance of Alice Creed The third film will be the taut British thriller The Disappearance of Alice Creed at 3pm. Kidnapped, thrown in a van and locked away in a purposebuilt room, it seems the end is nigh for Alice Creed (played by Gemma Arterton of Quantum of Solace and The Prince of Persia).

But as with all well-laid schemes, in the end it’s the little details that will bring the assailants undone. With twists and turns all the way to the end, The Disappearance of Alice Creed sticks three characters in an impossible situation and watches as they try to worm their way out.

The Wedding Party Finishing the programme in style at 5pm is the festival’s opening night film, The Wedding Party.

In this new Australian comedy of errors, firsttime feature director, Amanda Jane, takes her camera into the heart of Melbourne and creates a fun-filled farce about family, love and the choices

Matching Jack is one of the four films on show this weekend.

we make.

From the sacred turf of the MCG to the city’s kinky underground, The Wedding Party explores everything that can go wrong (and right) in the search for love, with an impressive ensemble of Australian talent, including Josh Lawson, Isabel

Lucas, Steve Bisley, Heather Mitchell and Bill Hunter.

Single session tickets and all-day passes are available. For more information or to book tickets, phone 5225 1200 or visit www.gpac.org.au

Dreams can come true Tuesday 27 July 2010

BY LAURA DUKE GEELONG author Ken Sheerin is the perfect example of someone going after their dreams.

The local writer – a recent guest at the Torquay Froth and Bubble Festival – said he is “having a load of fun writing and self publishing now he is retired”.

After leaving his Geelong home at 15, Sheerin travelled around Australia working at a variety of places, including woolsheds, meatworks, the navy, and even on a shark/cray boat.

Despite his varied experiences, he has “always harboured the writing thing” – and in 2006 he started writing while doing a correspondence course.

So far he has released three books, including The Perfect Day and other short stories; Myvanwy and the House of Dragon; Tula (The first book in the Rim Trader series) and is currently working on his fourth, Rhuma (the next in series), as well as a book of poetry.

Sheerin said he is always on the lookout for ideas for his stories, gaining inspiration from everyday things he sees around him.

“You can get inspiration from anywhere

Up and coming blues-roots musician Shaun Kirk will play the Torquay Hotel this Saturday night. Kirk, who has built up a strong following over the last 18 months, will kick off from 8pm in the main bar.

– even just walking the dog,” he said.

“You see something, then add the ‘what if’ factor and you’ve got a story.”

Testament to this, he said, are the ideas and thoughts behind the book Myvanwy and the House of Dragon, which was inspired by a combination of four random books bought from the Belmont Sunday market.

Couple these books with a hot air balloon feature at the Geelong show and “a month later I was away with the fairies” (or dragons, in this case) Sheerin said.

After an initial struggle to get started he said “the book virtually wrote itself.

Once you get that first character nailed, that character pretty much write their own story”.

Having been so many places and had so many experiences, Sheerin said these past occurrences had proved vital in his writing.

“If I write about a certain place, I’ve probably been there, because when you write, you inject that little bit of yourself in there,” he said.

Ken Sheerin self-publishes under his own banner, and his books can be ordered from his website, visit www. armchairpublishing.com.au

Ken Sheerin was a guest at last month’s Torquay Froth and Bubble Festival.

Sophie and Issy kept rugged up on the weekend as they watched Torquay defeat Portarlington by 45 points.

There was no doubting who (from left) Gemma, Sarah and Lucy were supporting as they were decked out in their yellow and black.

Photos: SARAH LAWRENCE

Support came in all shapes and sizes for Torquay with Fee Fee showing her colours with owner Robyn.

After 22 years as the Torquay Football Club’s number one volunteer in the can booth, Craig ‘Legsy’ Voss was thanked by the club when they put on a special 40th birthday party for him after Saturday’s game. The local legend celebrated with friends and family at the Torquay clubrooms. “I’ve been doing it for years, I just love being in the can booth and coming to the games on the weekend,” said Voss.

Enjoying a day out at the football were (from left) Alex, 11, Jack, 11, Bailey, 12 and Cooper, 12.

JULY 27 - AUG 2 2010

Attached Aries – is there a tug-of-war between you and your partner?

Do you want more freedom, while they yearn for more commitment?

The only solution is to meet somewhere in the middle. Single Rams – with Mars and Saturn linking up in your relationship zone, a new romance will be a frustrating stop/start kind of affair.

Does it feel as if your personal and professional lives are at war?

Changes are coming thick and fast at work but don’t be so busy that you neglect your domestic responsibilities. The Full Moon urges you to be more adventurous in love. Cautious Crabs – it’s time for you to crawl out of your cosy cave and take a few chances!

Mars marches into your sign on Friday (until September 15) so it’s time to be brazenly bold and beautiful. If you’re not confident about your talents and abilities, why should anyone else? Despite your best efforts, you’ll feel like it’s one step forwards and two steps back on Saturday, as Mars and Saturn join forces in your sign. Be patient.

When it comes to your health, you have to be proactive and responsible.

Work hard to keep yourself in tip-top shape Taurus! This week’s Full Moon lights up your Brilliant Career zone, so you’re keen to display your talents and shine professionally. However, it’s not a good time to make long-term decisions. Be patient and wait.?

Communication will be fraught with difficulties this week, as loved ones annoy you (and tell you things that you’d rather not hear). They are acting as a mirror so you can learn more about yourself. As birthday great Carl Jung explained “Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.”

The Full Moon stirs up your home zone, so expect the unexpected from loved ones this week. You’ll also feel unsettled at work, as Jupiter and Pluto fuel your ambitions – and then Saturn comes along and stymies them. Others will try to push your buttons but think things through before you react. The lesson to learn this week is patience.

Your friendships are in a state of flux. Some close relationships will end suddenly, while others will develop in unexpected ways. Don’t jump to conclusions about a child, teenager or friend. Check the facts thoroughly first. Communication and travel are highlighted so grab your mobile phone, jump in the car or take off in a plane.

There’s no escaping money pressures at the moment. Try to organise your life so you have two streams of income coming in – and don’t put all your financial eggs in the one basket! With three planets in your sign, you’re extra fussy and finicky. Avoid being a carping critic. As birthday great Henry Ford said “Don’t find fault, find a remedy.”

Young children and teenagers will test the boundaries this week - even more than usual. If you are firm and flexible (a tricky balance) then you can guide them through the multitude of changes that are happening.

Your goals and dreams seem far away on Saturday, as frustrations abound and negativity clouds your usually sunny disposition.

Saturn (your ruling planet) and Uranus face off again, so problems that first surfaced in late 2008 could come back to haunt you. Keep what’s working in your life, and change what isn’t. (The trick is knowing which is which!) Gung-ho Mars barnstorms into your career zone on Friday, so expect to feel even more ambitious and driven than usual.

Full Moon madness sees you at your eccentric best (and rebellious worst). It’s time to surprise others with your wild and wacky ways or shock them and do the complete opposite. Uranus is impatient for change, but don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater! Travel, study plans or legal matters may be delayed – yet again.

It’s a fabulous week for creative Piscean projects and spiritual exploration, as the Full Moon activates your intuition and imagination zone. Don’t rock the boat when it comes to joint finances or shared resources though – you could find yourself cut off. If you’re expecting money from others, be prepared for a long and frustrating wait.

ANGLESEA GOLF CLUB

WITH MARGOT SMITH

Men’s pennant CONDITIONS seemed to be ideal for our division one team on Sunday in their semi final at Barwon Heads.

Clear skies, no wind – but it wasn’t to be our day.

The men lost the final 6/1 to The Sands at Barwon Heads and the season for them is now over.

Anglesea Golf Club Golf Links Road, Anglesea Clubhouse: 5263 1582 Pro Shop: 5263 1951 Email: info@angleseagolfclub.com.au Web: www.angleseagolfclub.com.au/

Karingal bowl We had two teams completing in the Karingal Bowl on Friday. Ann Stokes had a good day finishing with 37 points and just missed out on an individual win.

But it was the team of Wendy Callahan, Tess Brown and Liza Mills that bought the bowl back to Anglesea. Another bit of silverware for the cabinet.

Midweek golf Weather conditions were a bit better for the men this week and nearly all of them finished their mid week round. Peter Gannon had a win in A grade with 39 points, John McLachlan won B Grade with 40 points

and Graeme Callahan stated the winning triffecta for the household with a win in C grade scoring 40 points as well.

Graeme Mills scored an eagle on the 18th and the NTPs were won by Gary Shugg, Kent Taylor, Russell Murfitt and Peter Gannon.

The ladies played the Doris Chambers Stableford Foursomes event on Thursday.

The winners of this event go on to represent the club at Rosanna Golf Club later this year.

Our winners were Judy Talbot and Janice Calvert with 35 points on a countback from Lynn Thompson and Wendy Callahan. Maralyn Cross and Rhelma Barnett were third with 32 points.

NTPs were Pauline Hammett, Sandy Favre and Gloria Hodgkisson.

Weekend events The course is just a little drier and we were all thankful to be able to have a round without requiring the umbrella or the wet weather gear. Saturday was

the last round on the Presidents Cup and we had some good scores posted the week before from players that had only played one round. Michael Preston made a run for it scoring 44 points to win C grade, giving him 81 points with 37 in a prior round.

But the cup was taken home by John Hall winning B grade with 40 points, and combining this with last weeks round he had a total of 82 points. A grade winner for the day was Colin Foster with 34 points on a countback from a few others. Ann Stokes had another winning day on the course scoring 38 points.

NTPs were Phillip Weickhardt, Dales Saunders, Geoff Bell and for the second time this week on the 16th Gloria Hodgkisson.

The day started well, sunny and warm, but it didn’t last and the late starters got a bit wet. The event was an aggregate par event and we had no teams on positive territory. The Callahan household, Wendy and Graeme, had their third win for the week with 1 down and runners up were Tony Leeds and local hero, Peter Calvert with 2 down.

WITH THE PRO SHOP

FINALS fever has hit the club with both men’s pennant teams having convincing wins in their semifinals on the weekend.

The div 1 team led by captain, Craig Corker, defeated Angelsea at Barwon Heads 6 matches to 1.

They will now take on arch rivals 13th Beach. The div 3 team has had an outstanding season and with Barry Tippet at the helm will start favourites to beat Barwon Valley.

In the semi-finals they were far too strong for Elcho Park winning 4-1.

All finals will be played at The Sands with div 3 teeing off at 8.30am and div 1 at 10.15.

It would be great to see as many supporters as possible.

Men’s competition Clear skies and a gentle breeze greeted the men on Wednesday for the 4BBB stableford event and many players took full advantage of the favourable conditions.

After several protests of why we haven’t written

about him, we finally can mention the name; Chris Calthorpe. He and partner Terry Beggs had a fantastic 50 points to be clear winners of the comp.

The dynamic duo of John Casboult and Lawrence Gudykunst were the runners-up with 47 points.

NTP on the 7th was won by John Ramsey while Mick McLean took the honours on the 13th hole.

A smaller than normal field competed in the comp on Saturday with many opting to watch the Cats demolish Brisbane.

The winner was Peter Jones with 6 up on a countback from Ray Robinson. Geoff Caddy won the A grade event, also on a countback from Jim Demetrius.

Some notable players from the pro shop have had a lapse in form of late, and no doubt Matt Stewart will be heading to the practice fairway after Saturday’s round. On the other hand, Deb Shoesmith is finding some form after her sabbatical in Vegas and Tybin has dusted the cobwebs off his clubs and got them swinging again after a long absence from the course.

Women’s competition The women played a stableford event on Thursday and Rae Rayner had an excellent score winning with 38 points. After some indecision about whether to play or not, Sue Morris had one of her best rounds to date, finishing runner-up with 36 points. Sue has been having lessons with Browny and it was great to see that the lessons, combined with the hours Sue has been putting in on the practice fairway being rewarded. Linda Carroll won NTP on the 7th while Merle Whitnall hit a fabulous shot on the 13th to finish a mere foot from the hole.

On Saturday, Christine Yelland won the par event for women, with one under, but special mention to Deb Shoesmith who finished square!

Orwin. The jackpot was won by Rob Young.

From the ladies room I was delighted when president Pamela called to ask me to partner her for the Dorothy Chambers foursomes round this week. Foursomes is always a challenge and a forgiving partner is big plus.

We played with new golfer Mary Sweet and her partner Jenny Halloran. After a brilliant start the girls ran into trouble on the last couple of holes and missed the prizes but watch for their names on the winners’ list soon Marina Naughton and Julie Rogers were the winners over Jun Ball and Anne Denham. NTP’s went to Ainsley and Gill Patten and Marg Ganley won the 9 hole comp.

The clubhouse was rocking on Saturday for the member’s dinner dance. And it seems good form on course translates to excellent moves on the dance floor!

Future events As a result of The Sands being awarded the hosting of the Geelong and District Golf Association Men’s Pennant Grand Finals on Sunday, the scheduled guest day has been postponed. An alternative date will be announced shortly.

WITH C H R I S B A R R

THE FINALISTS for the Clive Martella Cup have been decided. Ross Duff and Brendan Bulley will play off for this year’s honour. Good luck to both players.

Last Wednesday was the second and final round of the mid week championships. Paul Walters added another championship to his collection winning by two strokes over Tim Sinnott. After excellent first rounds where Paul hit 73 and Tim 74, both found the going tough in the second round with Paul hitting an 81 and Tim 82. In the overall net result Bill Young with 133 won by five strokes Geoff Lamont.

The Wednesday division winners were div 1: Rob Young with 67 from Greg Baeck with 68. Geoff Richmond had the score of the day in division 2 with 64. Daryl Sceney was r/up with 68. In division 3 Bill Young with 66 won from Ken Herald 69. NTPs went to David Stephens, Paul Walters, Ken Munro and Peter

Saturday’s results Saturday’s stableford event was played in overcast but calm conditions. In division 1 Ross Duff with 38 points won on c/b from Michael Mckinnon. In division 2 Greg Pender with 40 pts beat home Garry Lenehan with 38. Rod Chappell won division 3 with 40 pts with Trevor Bell r/up on 38.

But the score of the day came from Bruce Groom in division 4 with 44 pts. Colin Stone was r/up with 40. NTP’s went to Graeme Riches, Ray Furphy, Bob Young and Ross Forbes. Bob Hayles took home the jackpot.

The Saturday girls played stableford Tim Ratcliffe on 38 won the day from Helen Sceney 37. NTPs went to Marg Joyner and Ainsley McCallum.

Tuesday 27 July 2010

Mixed fortunes for Coasters THE SURF Coast soccer teams certainly didn’t get it all their own way on the weekend, with draws and losses in most leagues.

Surf Coast teams continue to lead a number of ladders, though, as the business end of the season approaches.

FFV Provisional 2 Men: Surf Coast (1) v Hoppers Crossing (1) The Surf Coast Prov 2 Men ground out a hard-fought draw against the threatening Hoppers Crossing this weekend. In the end, with Surf Coast’s superior fitness coming to the fore, the Coasters were unlucky not to get a win. However, the draw keeps one of our main rivals at arm’s length.

U17 Boys: Surf Coast (1) v Bell Park (2) The under 17s faced a strong Bell Park team and lost 2-1. The Coasters were 1-0 up at the half-time break and playing some nice football. Both teams fought hard end to end but most of the possession was dominated by Bell Park. Bell Park capitalised on their opportunities scoring two cracker goals, and while the blue and yellow boys gave their all they couldn’t break the defence.

U16 Girls: Surf Coast (2) v Surfside (3) The Surf Coast under 16s girls lost another nailbiting contest, this week against Surfside, with the game decided in the final minutes. The rivalry between the two clubs at the under 16s girls level

is now legendary, with epic battle after epic battle being fought out. The finals series promises to be a thriller.

U14 Girls: Surf Coast Yellow (1) v Kardinia (3) The Yellows played their best game of the season and were the better team on the pitch in the first half. In the second half, some position changes at half-time didn’t go the Coasters way. Although the Yellows maintained their gutsy performance, Kardinia managed to sneak a couple of quick goals.

Well done, Yellows, on an excellent game of soccer.

U14 Girls: Surf Coast Bue (1) v Surfside (2) The Blues last game against Surfside produced a

poor result, being beaten about 6-0 or thereabouts.

So the girls were out to put in a better effort this time around – and that they did. The game was in the balance at half time, but they went down 2-1.

U12 Girls: Surf Coast (0) v Surfside (0) Without trying to sound like a broken record, the Legends again missed three top quality players due to injury, this time against a highly competitive Surfside team who travelled down to the Legends home ground. The game ended 0-0, but having said that, it was far from a boring game with both sides playing explosive football and creating many attacks only to have them cut off in the last line of defence.

Dealing with sprained ankles

BY JEFF OXLEY ONE OF the most common sporting injuries is the sprained ankle.

This usually occurs with a twisting/inversion (foot turned inwards) movement when the ligament and tendon formation on the outside of the ankle is overstretched and can be damaged to the point of rupture.

When injured, pain is felt over one or more of these ligaments, and swelling often occurs followed by bruising which can occur over most of the foot and even to the medial (inside) aspect.

It should be noted that the pain on the medial side often remains longer than that on the lateral side.

When the ligaments and/or joint capsule are stretched or torn, bleeding may occur internally or externally. Internal bleeding into the joint leads to joint effusion with considerable disability and swelling on both sides of the joint.

External bleeding leads to more obvious bruising, usually associated with swelling on one side for the joint. Less commonly a sprain can occur to the medial (inside) ligament complex

when the ankle is forcibly turned outwards.

Many ankle sprains are very slight and the player may safely continue his game after a commentary break. A more substantial injury requires an accurate diagnosis and often an x-ray to rule out fractures.

Treatment initially involves the RICE regime, being careful not to apply any form of heat within the first 48 hours. Electrotherapy such as pulsed ultrasound or laser therapy may be of assistance in this early period.

Once the swelling and inflammation has subsided, the ankle should be mobilised (to ensure that all joints are mobile), strengthened, and most importantly rehabilitated on a wobble board.

If all these stages are correctly performed, then the chances of re-injury are minimised.

Finally, all suspect ankles should be taped or braced during all sporting activities to prevent reoccurrence and the consequent irreparable weakening of the joint.

Jeff Oxley is a renowned sports physiotherapist and the Director of Corio Bay Health Group.

It’s winter classic time

The Under 14 Yellow Surf Coast team went down 3-1 to Kardinia on the weekend.

SURF Coast Longboard Club will host its annual Winter Classic this weekend at Point Impossible.

More than 120 competitors across seven divisions will converge on the Surf Coast for the winter classic charity event.

The event is the state’s biggest longboard competition, with surfers from South Australian and Tasmania joining plenty of local talents for the two days of competition.

Surfers to watch will include past winner Micheal Pinney, along with Jordie Brown and Adam Lynch.

The competition in the age divisions is more fierce with the over 40s boasting many past state champions such as Greg Brown, Grant Price and John Ayton.

On the Saturday night Bird Rock Café in Jan Juc will host the classic function from 7pm, with a gold coin donation for entry.

Proceeds from this year’s event will go to the Torquay CFA to help them purchase their new fire truck.

THE STATE Government has not accepted a proposal to increase the number of marine parks in Victoria, the Minister for Environment and Climate Change, Gavin Jennings, said last week.

Jennings said the proposal contained in a report by the independent Victorian National Parks Association would not be acted on by the Labor Government.

“The Labor Government has ruled out creating more marine parks and will not amend the current marine national parks before the election or during the next term of government. This is similar to the moratorium introduced recently in New South Wales,” Jennings said.

“While independent groups like the Victorian National Parks Association are free to put forward their views, this is not a proposal that the Labor Government is entertaining.

“Victoria’s marine national parks were established in 2002 in consultation with all stakeholders to protect marine life in those

designated areas. Victoria has a world-class system of 13 marine national parks and 11 smaller marine sanctuaries, protecting 5.3 per cent of our coastal waters.

“Our Government established those marine national parks in consultation with all stakeholders to protect marine life in those designated areas – and we are not changing these arrangements.”

So, from an angler’s viewpoint, this certainly is good news and it seems that commonsense has prevailed.

Well done to all those fishermen out there who signed the petitions and all those who acted on your behalf at both local and state level, including VRFISH, The Boating and Fishing Council of Australia and the Victorian media.

However, there is still no guarantee of consultation with recreational fisherman over these issues and this is something that has to be rectified.

And the major question that still needs to be answered, revolves around Jennings’ original press release, where he said “the proposal by the VNPA had only been made public recently and would take some time to analyse by the Department of Sustainability and Environment and Parks Victoria before any further comment could be made.”

The question that still remains is why both of those departments were party to this proposal in the first place and why a non government body such as VNPA should receive such support.

We need written guarantees from both political parties that they will not consider new marine parks to the detriment of recreational fisherman and other stakeholders whose livelihoods rely on a properly managed fisheries programmes.
