Community ally call BY DEAN LAWSON

olice have called on families and friends of people in the Wimmera, Mallee and Grampians travelling this Christmas to be front-line allies in a fight against road trauma.

Regional traffic advisor Senior Sergeant Guin Cleminson urged people to remind travellers coming into the region about potential risks. “I’m urging community members to consider who is planning to visit them over the holiday period, whether from interstate or across Victoria, and to discuss with them the dangers of speed, fatigue and distraction,” she said. “It’s also important they

stress a need for visitors to factor in regular breaks during their journeys.” Sen Sgt Cleminson made the comments while reflecting on circumstances involving serious and, in some cases, fatal crashes in the region this year. She said people travelling through the Wimmera had been involved in fatal collisions. Investigations had revealed many had been travelling considerable distances and-or pushing their personal physical limits. “This has to stop and we need everyone, not just police and emergency services or community leaders, on board to get the message about the dangers of fatigue,” she said. “This is not so much about

IN THIS ISSUE

“Please don’t understate the dangers of fatigue, speeding and driving while impaired – it’s no excuse just because it’s Christmas” – Sen Sgt Guin Cleminson the distance someone has travelled, but more about how tired the driver might be in any given circumstance. It might involve a short distance and be based on a lack of sleep the night before. The key message is that if you’re feeling tired, it’s time to pull over.”

Most at risk

Sen Sgt Cleminson said it was important for people to remind each other the annual holiday period, with an increase in celebrations and activities,

contributed to a significant rise in road trauma. “There is a large increase in motorists travelling on our rural roads and heading to and from holiday destinations and, historically, it is motorists aged between 18 and 44 who are most at risk at this time of year,” she said. “I acknowledge the Wimmera is a large geographical area and families are spread far and wide. On Christmas Day in particular people can be

tempted to try to meet several family commitments across the region – which often involve lengthy trips in the car. “I encourage people to have discussions within their families to reduce the need for excessive travel. “This might mean celebrating Christmas over a few days rather than trying to be in two or three different places on the one day. “Surely celebrating Christmas on Boxing Day or Christmas Eve is better than never being able to celebrate Christmas again.” Sen Sgt Cleminson said there would be a highly visible police presence on main roads, particularly the Western

Highway during the next three weeks. She said the police aim would aim to ensure people travelled and arrived safely at their destinations. “There will be a continued focus on speed, alcohol or drug impaired driving, fatigue, driver distractions and seat belts,” she said. “There has also been an increase across the Wimmera in incidents involving animals. Again motorists need to drive with additional caution, especially during the early mornings and evenings. “The message is to travel smarter not faster over the Christmas holiday period.” • Police tips on safe travelling, page 6.

New Grampians business buzzing People keen to make the most of the breathtaking scenery and award-winning wines and produce of the Grampians have a new and unique opportunity to experience what the region has to offer.

Grampians Helicopters is a new business operating out of Stawell Airport and is offering tours that involve literally hopping between wine and food destinations, while providing a bird’s eye view of the national park and surrounding district. Warracknabeal’s Justin Neofitou, who has spent several years piloting helicopters in Melbourne and central and northern Australia, has returned home with his family determined to show off what his home region has to offer. With partner Justine Hide, who has extensive experience in the international tourism industry, the pair has put together a broad package of offers for tourists and people from across the region. In collaboration with various regional producers and with a scope to also provide scenic and private flights, they started operating their business about three weeks ago. Flights are in a four-seat Robinson 44 Raven

2 helicopter and available all year. “We want to provide something for everyone and share what this region offers,” Ms Hide said. “We’ve spent a good part of this year driving around to all the boutique, niche locations, whether it be olives, wine or whatever else is on offer and been discovering hidden gems that not only tourists but locals might not know about. “We’re hoping that, with our products, we can link them together and showcase all the highlights this region has to offer. “What we’re offering is a treat – whether it is simply for the experience or a special occasion – that is available locally.” In getting a ‘taste’ of what Grampians Helicopters offers, The Weekly Advertiser joined a tour, taking off from Stawell to soak up the majestic Grampians before landing at Montara Wines and Best’s Wines, to gain a wine and produce experience from hosts. Other destinations featuring in the various tours include Mt Langi Ghiran, Blue Pyrenees and Dalwhinne and Norton Estate wineries, Grampians Olive Farm and Red Rock Olives.

Better phone service bid

BY SARAH SCULLY

orsham Rural City Council will contribute $10,000 to a funding application to secure improved mobile phone sevice in Wartook Valley, Laharum and Brimpaen.

The council has strongly advocated for improved mobile phone service in the high fire-risk area but the area was overlooked in the first round of the Federal Government’s $100-million mobile black-spot program. The government has made $60 million available in the next two years in the second round of the program. Cr David Grimble, a Brimpaen farmer, said fixing mobile phone black-spots remained the council’s number one priority. “During the past couple of weeks I’ve had several requests from landowners requesting the council support a financial commitment,” he said. “Putting some money in probably doesn’t sit naturally for us, but I know when the black-spot program was rolled out, one of the key principles was to attract some

leveraged investment. If this is what’s necessary to be successful, I fully support it.” Cr Grimble said the council was acting on advice from Member for Mallee Andrew Broad and a request for financial support from Wartook Valley Communications Committee. In a letter to the council, committee member Royce Raleigh said residents were ‘extremely disappointed’ to be overlooked in round one. “We believe we did not gain full consideration for a number of issues in round one, including need, an area subject to natural disasters, social and economic benefits, and issues of public safety,” he said. Cr Robin Barber said although he supported a recommendation to contribute the money, it was a shame it was necessary. “Andrew Broad really encouraged us to make some kind of contribution towards this,” he said. Chief executive Peter Brown said establishing why the Wartook submission was unsuccessful in roudn one was difficult but the council would align its information

with the assessment criteria.Mr Brown said the council would again work with interested telcos and partners to showcase how improved coverage would benefit agriculture, tourism and emergency management and response. He said many successful round-one applicants made co-contributions. “While it has not been common for councils to contribute money to ensure mobile coverage in the past, we believe this will enhance our chances of success with this program, resulting in improved emergency response, increased economic development and enhanced livability within the municipality,” he said. Cr Mark Radford said people expected in 2015 that mobile phones would work in most places, particularly populated areas. Cr Sue Exell said safety concerns were paramount, particularly with the Grampians Peak Trail set to increase visitors. “I commend Royce Raleigh and everyone else who is pushing for this, because it’s their lives, their properties and their friends that are at risk,” she said.

News briefs Council lobbies for regional expo return

Horsham Councillor Mark Radford wants the State Government to reconsider its decision to cancel the Regional Victoria Living Expo. Cr Radford said he challenged Regional Development Minister Jaala Pulford’s assertion the expo was ‘a waste of money’. “I saw the expo as a great opportunity for regional cities like ours to showcase themselves as potential places for people to shift to from the big smoke,” he said. “Last year was the first time I’d been to one and stood on a stand with some of our officers. It was a great experience, because there were people asking questions such as ‘what is it like to live in Horsham?’, ‘have you got a hospital?’ and ‘what are the schools like?’. I certainly thought for our patch, it was very much worthwhile. “I do question some of the bells and whistles. There was quite an extravagant lunch for guest speakers and all sorts of stuff you could do away with. But the basic principle is something worthwhile.”

Fuel price request

Cr Robin Barber has suggested Horsham council ask its fuel supplier to reduce prices in line with other areas to level the playing field. Responding to economic and business development manager Colin Kemp’s fuel price report, Cr Barber called on the council to take action. “We spend a lot of money on fuel and I think we’ve got fair leverage to suggest to our fuel suppliers, if you don’t lift your game you guys, we might go elsewhere,” he said. But chief executive Peter Brown said the council needed more information before deciding on a course of action. “We know fuel prices in Horsham are high compared with other areas, but we need to know why is it so,” he said. Mr Brown said the council should consult with Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and host a consultation session early in the new year. Cr Tony Phelan: “If we have data then we have to develop a systematic program over time to demonstrate we are in fact being abused with inappropriate fuel prices.”

Support for ‘Forgotten Australians’ BY DEAN LAWSON

ne of Victoria’s 100,000 ‘Forgotten Australians’ has spoken of his childhood experiences in an effort to encourage more people to seek help and support.

Phillip Chalker, 63, of Horsham said it was important people knew that Open Place, a support and advocacy service for Forgotten Australians, had a branch in the Wimmera. Forgotten Australians refers to people who grew up in orphanages, institutions, homes and in foster care in the past century. “We started a little group with about six people in Donald and now we have people from St Arnaud, Warracknabeal and Horsham as well,” he said. “It’s open to anyone – and that includes Ararat, Stawell, anywhere in our region – any-

SPEAKING OUT: Forgotten Australian Phillip Chalker. one who has been in children’s homes or been adopted or fostered out from 1930 to 1990.” Mr Chalker’s personal story features in a publication Open Place has produced called We Remember You. Mr Chalker said many chil-

dren raised in homes had been physically or mentally abused. Others, similar to him, had also been the subject of sexual abuse. Mr Chalker said children suffered abuse at various homes, including government-owned, Salvation Army, Catholic and other church institutions. He said people often did not realise the highly publicised Aboriginal ‘Stolen Generation’ was simply part of the much bigger Forgotten Australians group. “The reality is the Stolen Generation were often with us kids as well,” he said.

Living in a home

Mr Chalker was five when he found himself suddenly living in Allambie Children’s Home with two older sisters and a younger brother. “We were in Richmond and to this day we still don’t know

why we were taken from our parents. The police and welfare basically took us out of school one day,” he said. “When I was eight I was sexually assaulted by one of the teachers and I reported it. “But as usual at the time, noone did anything except transfer my brother and I to Box Hill Boys Home and my two sisters to Salvation Army East Kew Girls Home. “Then, when I was about 10 I was sexually assaulted again, this time by a Salvation Army officer who was assaulting several kids. “He was eventually caught but instead of doing anything to the officer the authorities put me in the lock-up at Turana Youth Training Centre to cover it all up. “They made up some story that I had exposed myself to a lady when I was walking

to school one day. This was physically impossible because we all went to and from school on a Salvation Army truck. “When I was 13 in Turana, another person tried to sexually assault me but I turned on him and nearly killed him. “They let me go the next day. I had done two years in there for nothing. I was eventually transferred to Try Boys Hostel in South Yarra and then I got a job as a 15-year-old. “When I walked out of the youth hostel the government handed me about 500 letters that my parents had written that I had never received. I cried for two weeks. “Even now, when I try to get records, authorities tell me they have been shredded.” Mr Chalker said he carried the legacy of his tormented childhood in physical and mental scars.

“I have a special hearing device and without it I can’t hear a thing. As kids we used to get belted around the ears a lot,” he said. “I also have a condition where I can’t help but hum to myself. I’m now 63 and I’ve been having help with mental health since I was 45.” Mr Chalker said he went as far as writing to the Queen in 2010 about the circumstances he and other children had endured. He continues to lobby for justice and help for people who had been abused and neglected. He said anyone seeking more information about Open Place’s Wimmera group, which has its next gathering at Horsham Sports and Community Club at noon on January 29, could call 1800 779 379 or him on 0428 173 606.

Warning on Christmas gifts

olice have warned Christmas shoppers buying the latest electronic personal mobility devices that some are officially defined as ‘motor vehicles’ under Victorian law.

Regional safety liaison officer Senior Sergeant Guin Cleminson listed devices such as hoverboards and powered scooters as ‘non-compliant motor vehicles’. Sen Sgt Cleminson said it was important people were fully aware of rules and regulations and safety issues. “Some of these devices are

Guin Cleminson defined as motor vehicles under the Road Safety Act 1986 and Road Safety Rules – Victoria 2009,” she said. “It’s important for the community and especially parents to realise that while they might appear to be toys, such devices can reach between 15

and 20km/h. Any fall or collision could result in a significant injury. “The last thing we want to see is a child seriously injured or even killed as a result of receiving one of these devices over the Christmas period.” Sen Sgt Cleminson said if anyone used the devices listed as motor vehicles on a road or road-related area, they were subject to offences including unregistered, unlicensed, failing to comply with registration standards, interlock and zero-alcohol conditions, as well as drink or drug driving. She added the rules also ap-

plied to petrol-powered bicycles, which were often legally classed as motorcycles. “Side-by-side and singlewheeled devices such as the iScooter, Hoverboard or AirWheel, as well as powered skateboards are non-compliant motor vehicles, only to be used on private property,” she said. “A Traffic Incident System report will be required for any injuries or collisions that occur involving electronic personal mobility devices and people will be liable for possible prosecution.” Sen Sgt Cleminson said she

recommended anyone considering buying one of the devices for either themselves or their children, to understand rules, regulations and safety concerns. “Effective adult supervision is recommended when using these devices on private property and the wearing of appropriate safety equipment, including a bicycle helmet and elbow-wrist guards,” she said. “People should also be aware that because these devices are considered a motor vehicle, drink-driving laws apply, even when being used on private property.”

TESTING TIME: Horsham police officers breath-test motorists on the Western Highway in Horsham last week.

Police tips on safe driving Police have provided safety tips for people travelling to, from and through the Wimmera, Mallee and Grampians during the summer holiday period. Regional traffic advisor Senior Sergeant Guin Cleminson said as part of Operation Roadwise, police across the Wimmera, including the division’s Superintendent, inspectors, detectives, members from the divisional intelligence unit, single-member stations, station commanders and Highway Patrol members would prioritise road safety. “We would prefer to deter people from doing the wrong thing in the first place, but if motorists take the risk and do the wrong thing you can be assured we will be out in force and you will get caught,” she said. “I ask each member of the community – what can you do to contribute to Operation Roadwise?” Police tips for road users this festive season:

• If you know you’re going to have a couple of alcoholic drinks, leave the car at home and arrange alternative transport. • If plans change and you hadn’t planned to drink, don’t drive home. It’s that simple. Don’t risk it. If you see someone else planning to drive who shouldn’t be, don’t let them – you might save their life. Ask yourself, would you be happy with that person driving a vehicle that was driving towards a car filled with your family. If the answer is ‘no’, speak up and do something to stop it. If you can’t stop someone from driving, ring triple zero and give police the details. • If you, or your family or friends, are planning a long drive – plan the best route, plan for regular breaks and share the driving. Driving while fatigued can be a deadly mistake. • Mobile phones – we all have them. Turn them off while driving and don’t check your phone until you pull over for one of your regular breaks. • Seat belts – no excuses, they are there for your safety.

Motocross to be televised world-wide

Christmas is for everyone EDITORIAL BY DEAN LAWSON

Christmas is a highly spiritual time of the year for many people. It is an important annual affirmation of faith, providing a sense of connectivity with the supernatural and a profound purpose for existence.

To others it manifests itself as the one time in the year to be collectively thankful for having guiding principles that promote love, magnanimity, generosity and forgiveness as well as justice and an understanding between right and wrong. To some it represents a time of good cheer; a time to break from a busy work schedule to celebrate family, friends, children and individual circumstance. At the core of it all is simply a good idea. What better way to thumb our nose at the evils of the world than to celebrate the birth of someone who, as well as being an obvious historic religious deity and martyr, also represents a wonderful ideal based on goodwill. It’s great that people with strong Christian beliefs consider Christmas sacred and celebrate the occasion. It’s even better that people with no or little religious faith, or from outside the Christian church, also cherish December 25, the Christmas season and what it all means. Hypocrisy? Far from it. What it instead means is the simple message of sacrifice, the act giving and goodwill has gone beyond religious boundaries. Atheists, agnostics – anyone for that matter – should always be welcome to celebrate Christmas. It’s all about the message, not about who delivers it or how it is delivered. In fact religion, while in most cases promotes the positive message of Christmas, can sometimes cloud its true meaning. For example, consider the puritanical Lord Protector of England Oliver Cromwell who during his reign in the early 1600s banned Christmas celebrations for holy reasons. We think Ollie might have missed the point. Christmas and its ideals are, like in many parts of the world, firmly entrenched in the Wimmera, Mallee and Grampians. From everyone at The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and Mixx FM, we wish our readers and listeners a happy Christmas and a prosperous New Year. Please, stay safe on busy roads this holiday season.

roadcasters will telecast international motorcycle racing action in Horsham in 2018 live to a world-wide audience.

CHRISTMAS CHEER: Hundreds of Wimmera children have lined up at Horsham Plaza this month to whisper their Christmas wishlist in Santa’s ear. Santa, pictured with Mrs Claus, has been a popular feature of what has been a busy month for the plaza, with increased foot traffic as Wimmera people busily complete their Christmas shopping.

Horsham Motorcycle Club officials have confirmed Australian-based online broadcaster NRGTV will present blow-by-blow action and commentary of the World Junior Motocross Championship from a Dooen circuit. Club spokesman Kenny Watts said it was the first time a world junior motocross event would be televised live around the world. “We’re not quite sure whether it will be broadcast live for the whole event or just the finals but it is certainly big news, not only for our club, the event and Australia, but also for Horsham and the Wimmera as well,” he said. “We want Australian motocross fans to come to Horsham and fans worldwide to watch it on their computers. “We still have a long way to go in our preparations but things just keep falling into place.” The live telecast will be part of significant international media coverage of the event. The Horsham club has to provide a media centre to meet the needs of up to 40 journalists from around the world. Horsham won a bid earlier this year

to become the first club in Australia to host world junior motocross titles – the biggest event of its kind on the planet.

Big events

The world junior titles will follow the opening round of a national motocross series on April 3 next year and the Australian Junior Motocross Championship in September, 2017. “It doesn’t stop there. We’re also trying to secure a round of the Victorian Enduro Series, preferably next winter, and if we can get it and run it as well as other events, we’ll also put our hands up for a round of the Australian enduro,” Mr Watts said. “We have to keep bringing these types of events to Horsham. It’s great for our motorcycle club and it is great for the regional community. “When we had the Australian junior titles in Horsham in 2013, it pumped an estimated $3.5-million into the district economy. “One of our aims is make Horsham the mecca of motocross and that means just keeping on building on what we have.” Mr Watts said his club had been busy exploring the various aspects required to host an international event, including attracting people to the Wimmera from a variety of cultural backgrounds.

YOUR SAY Domestic violence

Sir – The 2015 Australian of the year, Rosie Batty addressed a special parliamentary sitting to draw attention to the tragedy of family violence in our community. Her speech and that of several others highlighted that family violence has no boundaries and impacts everyone. It was a privilege to be able to speak in response to Rosie Batty and the many other inspiring and brave women. I was proud to add my voice to the campaign to stamp out domestic violence and to show that domestic violence is never acceptable. Events associated with White Ribbon Day drew attention to the fact that silence is no longer acceptable.

It was fabulous to see between 200 and 250 people attend the Wimmera White Ribbon Committee’s Walk Against Violence last month. There are no women’s shelters and limited support services in the Lowan electorate. We need an increase in funding for additional services in regional Victoria so local women can safely escape from violent relationships and move on with their lives. Family violence can be physical, psychological, sexual or financial abuse and we need a stronger judicial system to manage people who have these intentions. We need improved access to support services for men who recognise they have a problem and need help to break the cycle. We can all make a difference to

stamp out domestic violence. It is important for people to speak up. Staying silent makes you as guilty as the perpetrator. We will do whatever we can to stamp out family violence in this state. Emma Kealy, Member for Lowan

Carbon emissions

Sir – The good news is – ‘Research: CO2 increases yield’ – The Weekly Advertiser, December 16. The bad news is – mega bucks and mega man-hours have been expended in Paris exploring ways of preventing this happening – the media at large. The target of all this annual frenetic activity is carbon dioxide emissions, particularly from affordable coalfired power generation. Why is the raw heat of combustion

that we use in immense quantities in our vehicles, our aircraft, and our power generation disregarded in favour of an unproven theory? Why is the amount of heat that our air-conditioners pump out of our buildings and vehicle cabins also disregarded? If a true reading of increasing temperatures was to be obtained the temperatures in all these confined spaces must also be read. Until someone accepts the challenge to produce the evidence – ‘scientists believe’ does not qualify as evidence – to condemn CO2, I will continue to believe that Al Gore, the antagonist-in-chief, will make a killing from carbon trading.

2010 Horsham winner set for return BY TONY LOGAN orse lovers are in for a special treat on Horsham Pacing Cup day when Tanabi Bromac returns to the scene of his victory in the 2010 Wimmera Mail-Times Horsham Pacing Cup.

Tanabi Bromac will lead the field out on January 10 for the 2016 edition of the $70,000 Group 2 contest. Tanabi Bromac retired in July 2013 after a racing career that spanned some six years and 107 starts. The black gelding debuted with a 20-metre victory in the Warehouse Sales 2YO Pace at Bendigo in August 2007 and ended with the fine record of 24 wins, 31 minor placings and stakes of $465,927. Tanabi Bromac’s victories include the Victoria Derby Final, a quartet of country cups at Shepparton, Wangaratta Echuca and Horsham, three wins at Melton, four at Moonee Valley and minor placings in a host of big races such as the NSW Derby, Vicbred 3YO Final, Sydney Inter Dominion Heat, Len Smith Mile and The Enduro. Trained throughout his career by Elmore trainer Keith Cotchin, Tanabi Bromac

campaigned successfully across the nation, in Victoria, Tasmania, Queensland, South Australia and NSW. But ‘Ernie’, who earned the stable-name after popular indigenous television personality Ernie Dingo, struggled to adapt to life in the paddock, much preferring the action around a racing stable.

Duck to water The Cotchin family were aware he needed to be involved in something productive and stimulating and kindly offered their little champ to Shepparton horsewoman Julie Duffy for adoption and re-education. “He’s taken to his new life like a duck to water,” Julie said. “I think he’s going to make a great all rounder-jumping, trail riding and dressage.” Fast-forward to Horsham on Sunday, January 10 and Julie, ‘Ernie’ and HERO program manager Tanya McDermott will lead the way in the Horsham Cup, not with the usual racing silks and sulky, but under saddle in the finest equestrian turnout.

BOXING DAY

e l a S

ACCOMPLISHED: Horsham Scouts Raechel O’Donnell, Josephine Bond, Michael Timms and Matthew Ough receive their Australian Scout Medallions and certificates in Melbourne.

Scouts’ national achievement Four Horsham Scouts have reached the pinnacle of Scouting, achieving their Australian Scout Medallion.

Horsham 2nd Scouts’ Raechel O’Donnell and Matthew Ough and Horsham 4th Scouts’ Josephine Bond and Michael Timms received medallions and certificates from Scouts Victoria assistant chief commissioner Lachlan Preston in Melbourne. The Australian Scout Medallion is the highest award in

the Scout Section, aimed at children 11 to 15. To attain the award, Scouts must: • Earn their Adventurer Badge, become proficient and instruct others at campcraft – camping, cooking, construction, first-aid and hiking – and citizenship – promise and law, local government and leadership – as well as another chosen field such as emergencies, water safety or environment. • Earn six proficiency badges, such as fire awareness, commu-

nication, bushcraft, top ropes, multi-media, individual sport, team sport, performing arts and trade. • Attend three patrol activities of at least 12 hours each. • Participate in a leadership course and demonstrate an active leadership role in Scouting. All four Scouts became Patrol Leaders for their respective patrols. They have now linked up to the Venturer section, which is for youth 14 to 17.

Holiday parties

chool is over for the summer and the holiday season is upon us, and with it comes an increase in parties.

As a parent or guardian you have an important role to play in providing advice for responsible decision-making and helping ensure the safety of teens attending parties. As a host, register the party with Victoria Police through the Party Safe register. Party Safe forms are available on the Victoria Police website or at the local police station. When you register, consider the following – the number of people likely to attend your party; if there will be alcohol; informing your neighbours; obtaining consent from the parents or guardians of underage drinkers; responsible serving and provision of alcohol; adult supervision or appropriate security; a medical emergency plan. Please try to register your party at least one week before it is being held. It is illegal for a child under 18 years to consume alcohol unless the child is in the company of a responsible adult, who is either the child’s parent or guardian, or has the consent of the child’s parent or guardian.

Consent

This means that you must obtain consent from a child’s parent or guardian before you can legally provide alcohol to any child at your party. There are, of course, penalties for providing alcohol to an underage child without permission from their parent or guardian. Where possible, contact parents well in advance to obtain their consent to their child drinking alcohol at your party. But remember, your responsibility as a host does not end after you have obtained consent to supply alcohol. The safety of your guests is your first priority. If you intend to supply alcohol, consider the amount and type of alcoholic drinks. • Ask guests not to bring their own alcohol. Supplying alcohol gives you more control over the amount and type of alcohol consumed by your guests. • Have a responsible, non-drinking adult serving alcohol. Adult supervision and reinforcement of acceptable behaviour is critical. Wednesday, December 23, 2015

on the

BEAT

with regional crime prevention officer Senior Constable Di Davidson

• Serve alcohol from a single location away from busy areas and the party entrance. • Limit the supply of spirits, champagne and other full-strength drinks – consider light beer and other diluted drinks instead. • Mixing energy drinks with alcohol places the body under great stress. Consider not providing energy drinks. • Avoid providing any drinks in open containers or punch-bowls. These may be easily spiked or tampered with. • Stop serving alcohol to guests who appear to be becoming intoxicated. • Seek immediate medical attention for any guest who has difficulty communicating or is non-responsive. • Call the parents of all intoxicated guests and ask they be picked up for their safety. And, of course, prevent anyone from driving after drinking. Active adult supervision is critical and must be constant throughout the party. Speak to supervising adults and instruct them to: • Walk through the party area and mingle with guests to identify any problems before they escalate. • Set the standard and make it clear that excessive alcohol consumption and any violence will not be tolerated. Your response to any violence is important for reinforcing acceptable standards. You should: • Be verbally assertive to separate the individuals. • Make arrangements for violent guests to leave where possible. Remember that you do have the right to ask people to leave and if you cannot handle a situation, call police for emergency assistance on Triple Zero. From all here at Victoria Police, we wish you the best of the season. Stay safe.

�ar�cipants develop e�ec�ve leadership, performance management, strategic thinking and corporate governance skills. They form close business support networks and draw on the knowledge and e�per�se of fellow group members. The year culminates in presenta�ons where each individual reports their key learnings from the program, including an outline of the Enterprise Improvement �lan to the Leadership Wimmera Commi�ee.

PERSONNEL CHANGE: New Horsham Rural City Council community services director Kevin O’Brien will replace Angela Murphy – the new planning and economic director.

New appointment K

evin O’Brien is Horsham Rural City Council’s new community services director.

Mr O’Brien, who has been a senior officer with Southern Grampians Shire Council, will replace Angela Murphy who is set to become Horsham’s new planning and economic director. Ms Murphy moves into the role in January after the retirement of Tony Bawden. Horsham council chief executive Peter Brown said Mr O’Brien brought a wealth of experience to the position. “Kevin has worked in local government for the past 18 years. He has managed major

projects and large and diverse workforces. Kevin is a very experienced director and we welcome him to this important position at the council,” he said. Mr Brown said Mr O’Brien had been Southern Grampians council’s infrastructure services director for the past five years. This followed more than six years as community services manager. “Before this, he held various community service management positions, focused on youth, children and families at Warrnambool, Wyndham and Casey councils,” Mr Brown said. “Throughout his employment Kevin has successfully man-

The Horsham performing arts centre will bring many opportunities and I’m excited to be involved with the development of a new children’s hub in Horsham North,” he said.

Vauxhalls to visit A convoy of more than 30 Vauxhall cars will roll into the Wimmera for a national rally next month.

IMPRESSIVE: A 1932 T80 Silent 80 Sedan is one of many quality Vauxhall vehicles part of the Vauxhall Owners Club of Australia. The club will host its national rally in the Wimmera next month.

The Victorian branch of Vauxhall Owners Club of Australia will host a national rally, staying at Longerenong College from January 8 to 15. A show ’n shine event, which will also feature a display by Wimmera Mallee Historical Vehicle Society members, will be at May Park, Horsham, on Saturday, January 9. Horsham Cr Mark Radford will officially open the 41th national rally at the show ’n shine event at 11am. Secretary Elaine Walk-

er said the rally would start on January 8, with club members enjoying an evening meal at Longerenong College. “We will be hosting 60 entrants from across Australia for the seven days,” she said. “They will bring 33 Vauxhall cars ranging from early 1920s to the 1960s and ’80s.” Ms Walker said Horsham was chosen as the destination because the committee’s convenor Glen Hubbard was from the Wimmera. “We host the national rally every five years in Victoria – last time it was at Churchill in Gippsland,” she said.

“We stay seven days in the region because we have people from interstate coming and we like to show our areas off.” Ms Walker said members would travel to towns throughout the Wimmera during their stay. “We plan to visit a local car club member’s property and a car club, as well Halls Gap Zoo, and Wartook Doll and Carriage Museum,” she said. “We will also go to Warracknabeal to see Wheatlands Agricultural Museum, the Hall of Fame at Stawell and Murtoa Water Tower Museum and Woods Museum at Rupanyup.”

Wimmera Highway set for repairs

he Wimmera Highway will be subject to improvement works this summer with VicRoads set to start projects valued at almost $2.7-million along the key rural route. Resealing works at various sites between Apsley and Marnoo will be aimed at providing motorists with improved driving surfaces and strengthening the highway against damage.

Work will include 24 kilometres of resealing at a cost of more than $1-million and two large-scale projects involving the rebuilding of sections of the road. One of the sections will include two kilometres of highway west of Natimuk and the other a three-kilometre stretch west of Horsham at a combined cost of $1.6-million. The condition of the Wimmera Highway, especially are-

Wednesday, December 23, 2015

as targeted for the rebuild, have been the subject of considerable regional concern, discussion and debate. VicRoads regional director Ewen Nevett said improvements were vital to increase the strength and surface of the roads, reduce the chance of vehicles losing control and improve safety and reliability. “These projects will improve conditions for drivers, and extend the life of the highway.

Sections of this road are uneven with rough and pot holed surfaces,” he said. “These upgrades will provide drivers with a smoother and safer ride.” Mr Nevett said the upgrades would make a significant difference to the vehicles that drove along the Wimmera Highway daily, which on some sections was as many as 7800. “These works will support primary producers to get their

www.theweeklyadvertiser.com.au

products to the market or to the factory as well as support residents as they travel to work and school,” he said. Mr Nevett said the summer months were ideal for Wimmera and Mallee road projects because the roads needed to be dry and temperatures warm enough for new surfaces to set correctly. He urged motorists to be patient, to allow extra time for their journeys, be alert for

road-work zones and slow down so everyone could enjoy a happy and safe summer, including road workers. “We’re asking people to remember these workers are real people, with real families working in high-risk environments day and night for the benefit of all Victorians,” he said. Work will start in the next few weeks and finish by mid 2016.

MPs’ messages for Christmas

ederal Member for Mallee Andrew Broad and State Member for Lowan Emma Kealy have wished people across the region well for the festive season.

The following are their Christmas messages. Mr Broad: “Christmas is a time to reflect on the world we live in, the people we share our lives with and the values we hold. The true message of Christmas centres on hope, peace and goodwill to all, regardless of who we are and what we do. In choosing the ‘lowly shepherds’ to first share the news of Christ’s birth, the angels showed the world that value is found in the content of character, not in social status or wealth. On the night the angels heralded Christ’s birth, they proclaimed, ‘Peace on Earth, goodwill to all men’. In light of recent events, that message seems at odds with the realities of our world today, where the peace and good we were promised, is at risk of being overshadowed by darker deeds. If we were blessed with

peace on Earth, we would save the Federal Budget $26-billion a year in defence spending. With peace on Earth, Australia’s troops could be home with their families this Christmas. Peace on Earth would allow a united humanity to build people up instead of tearing each other down. Perhaps the promised ‘peace on Earth’ is actually the peace that can be found in the hearts of individual men and women, the type of peace that is offered in the Christmas story – where hope and redemption are delivered through the birth and life of Christ. This festive season, pause and consider the hope and values of the Christmas story and what they can mean for you. Eat some good, Australian-grown food and enjoy time with your loved ones. Merry Christmas.”

Emma Kealy:

“As we prepare to celebrate Christmas and the arrival of 2016 I would like to wish everyone in the Lowan electorate a happy and safe Christmas. Christmas is an opportuni-

S Y! R LY OU DA N O 4 H ING pm 2 R OX to FOIS B 10am TH

ty to spend time with family and friends and to reflect on the important things in life. Holidays can bring great moments of joy and hopefully long stretches of relaxation. I hope everyone enjoys this time, but also remains vigilant and safe on the roads, in our waterways, pools, out in nature and even in the backyard. As the festive season brings with it an array of shopping needs, I encourage everyone to shop locally to support our local traders and economy. It has been a privilege to represent and work for the people of Lowan in 2015. For me it has been a busy and fulfilling first year in politics and I have greatly enjoyed the diversity of individuals, groups and organisations I have worked with. The strength and generosity of our rural communities is one of our greatest assets. Please take the time to look out for others in our community, to extend the hand of friendship and offer the spirit of Christmas to those around you.”

TRAINING AWAITS: East Grampians Health Service nurse teaching team members, from left, Deborah Bennett, Jenny Turner, Claire Sladdin and Heather Phillips.

Nurse training partnership Australian Catholic University – Community and East Grampians Health Service are set to go into partnership to provide a Diploma of Nursing program in Ararat from March next year.

Participants who graduate from the program will be eligible to register as enrolled nurses with the Australian Health Practitioners Regulation Agency. East Grampians Health Service chief executive Nick Bush said enrollments would start when ACUcom received final accredi-

tation from Australian Nursing Midwifery Council. Mr Bush stressed the importance of nurse training to ensure the sustainability of a qualified health workforce. Health service education manager Heather Phillips confirmed that subject to accreditation, the Diploma of Nursing program would require a full-time study commitment. She said classes would be from Mondays to Thursdays between 9.30am to 2.30pm at Ararat Hospital.

The program would also provide clinical placements as part of a diverse range of clinical experiences. A dedicated clinical teacher will provide supervision for students during their placement. Entrance testing for the program will be at Pyrenees House at Ararat Hospital at 10am on January 19 and February 5. People seeking further information or who want to register for entrance testing can email acucom.melbourne@acu.edu.au or phone 9953 3321.

lans are well underway for Ararat branch of Victoria Police Blue Ribbon Foundation’s annual Grampians Ride to Remember.

A sub-committee including district motorcycle enthusiasts is working closely with police from the northern Grampians on the February 7 event. Organisers are confident the 174-kilometre ride will attract more than 350 riders and pillions from across Victoria and interstate. The ride is a ‘green corridor’ event and will be open to all licensed motorcycle enthusiasts riding under police escort to maximise safety and minimise disruption to other road users. The 2016 ride will start from Ararat and travel through the countryside to the fringes of the Grampians National Park including the townships of Moyston and Pomonal to Halls Gap for morning tea. Ride participants then travel through the Grampians to Yarram Gap Road and on to Willaura and back via Moyston to Ararat for a barbecue at Alexandra Gardens. Event spokeswoman Dianne Radford said the ride had attracted major sponsors including Shannon’s Insurance, Wimmera Motorcycles, ACE Radio

through radio stations 3WM, MixxFM and The Weekly Advertiser, Parkview Hotel and Ord’s Motorcycles – Ararat. “Ord’s Motorcycles will help organisers present a signature event, a popular Ararat and Grampians show ’n’ shine,” she said. Sub-committee chairman Phil Clark said the ride had grown to become a major event, attracting motorcycle enthusiasts from far and wide “We have a dedicated committee including many acting as volunteer marshals on the day and importantly we are working closely with police to create an enjoyable and safe ride that will again take in the Grampians National Park,” he said. “The ride will support the Ararat branch of the Victoria Police Blue Ribbon Foundation and honour the memory of Victorian police officers killed in the line of duty.” All proceeds from the 2016 ride go towards an Ararat branch project to raise $150,000 for a ‘Jason Bond’ Perioperative Unit at East Grampians Health Service’s Ararat Hospital. Riders and pillions will pay $30 to register. The cost includes lunch and other items. People can register at website www.trybooking.com/JILQ.

evidence based and innovative Speech Pathology OPENING Clinic January 13 At 62 Darlot St, Horsham FAMILY-FRIENDLY EVENT: The Mik Maks were a hit with children at Carols in the Grampians earlier this month. A crowd of more than 4500 people flocked to Grampians Motel, Halls Gap, for the carols.

Halls Gap carols primed for 2016

lans for next year’s Carols in the Grampians are already underway with organisers confident they can better this year’s crowd of more than 4500 by busting through the 5000 mark.

Co-ordinator and Grampians Motel owner Jeff Lovell, who worked with Northern Grampians Shire Council to present the Halls Gap event, said there was a bubbling enthusiasm for the event to continue next year. “We doubled the crowd we had last year and we’re in the process of looking at the dollar side of things to see what we can do,” he said. “But all the artists are on board and everyone is keen to go again. It went really well and everyone seemed to have a great time.”

Carols in the Grampians featured headline entertainers including Denis Walter, Karen Knowles, Julie Walter and Michael Cristiano. Mr Lovell said children’s entertainers The MikMaks were also a huge hit, as were Ginger and Tonic, Humphrey B. Bear and Aboriginal entertainer and artist Tommy Crow. “The change from a Friday to Saturday night seemed to be a good move and the local artists put together by Greg Little from Stawell Performing Arts were all top class – simply splendid,” he said. “The fireworks display was another major highlight. It was just unbelievable and people couldn’t believe we could put on such a display. It went for 12 and a half minutes and it

was probably the best fireworks I’ve seen at a country show.” Mr Lovell said the event had the potential to expand into a full weekend of activities. “We want to grow it and make it bigger but we need to take little steps at a time,” he said. “Everyone is just raving about it. For $5, considering the high-class entertainment that was on show, it was great value for money. We’ll see if we can get more than 5000 people next year.” The event featured a variety of children’s activities and an extensive list of sponsors including The Weekly Advertiser and radio stations 3WM and MiXXFM. Several businesses collaborated to provide accommodation for performers.

Incentive to help provide new jobs The State Government is encouraging employers to access an updated Back to Work scheme and hire unemployed workers in Lowan and Ripon electorates. Member for Western Victoria Jaala Pulford said the Back to Work Scheme, a capped twoyear $100-million fund, had been boosted with a significant increase of incentive payments for employers.

Employers can now access up to $5000 to help them hire and train young unemployed and retrenched workers and up to $12,000 for long-term unemployed. She said employers could also receive payments of up to $4000 if they provided accredited training to the new employee. This would be in addition to any other payment under the scheme.

NOV’s solar powered water pumping solutions have been developed to reliably transfer water from boreholes, wells, lakes or rivers where traditional power is unavailable.

Christmas gift of giving rings true “I wish we could put up some of the Christmas spirit in jars and open a jar of it every month.” ~Harlan Miller BY SUJATHA UMAKANTHAN

ondering where the year has disappeared to? Me too, but considering December, abundant with festivities and celebrations is everybody’s favourite month, I have very little to complain about.

to take home. I arrived at the tail end of the mediation to see both boys with very Yoda-like expressions, calmly trying to win the first place through a rock-paperscissors game. I nervously anticipated a fullblown tantrum and regretted the wisdom of introducing only a limited number of prizes. The game had concluded and clearly there could be only one winner. What astounded me was the mature and accommodating expressions on the children’s faces as they shook hands and walked away after the prize was claimed by one of them. They had reached a stand-off after twice displaying their abilities but had generously conceded to a game of chance, despite both deserving the prize.

As I always say, the festive season often means different things to different people. If you were to ask me to single out one major significance of this season or rather my favourite, it is the precious gift of giving. It appears that even the younger ones among us aren’t immune to the generosity around us during this season. Last weekend, we had a Christmas party for children hosted by both Oasis Wimmera and Horsham Rotary. I noticed several incidents that made me wonder if the children’s behaviour had more to do with a Christmas spirit or perhaps, these days, children are more magnanimous than we thought. One incident involved two little boys, who had tied in a competition for a huge cuddly plush toy that even some of the ‘bigger kids’ among the parents wanted

Spirit of sharing

When did seven-year-olds learn the art of negotiating and giving in graciously? Perhaps, it was much more than just the magic of

Christmas in the air. I would like to believe it makes it much easier to participate in giving when the entire community celebrates the spirit of sharing. Look around and you will find more and more touching anecdotes around this season. They perhaps are trivial, insignificant actions on their own but yet quite insightful and delightful living embodiments of the spirit of giving. How easy it is for us to emulate something when everyone around us, young or old, practises the virtue. This year has seen its share of tragedies and heart-breaking incidents around the globe. Despite that, communities and humanity as a whole have risen and partaken in the simple act of giving. Be it charitable donations, supporting refugees, understanding the plight of less fortunate people or practising tolerance and acceptance and above all forgiveness amid extremist atrocities – everything symbolises giving and resonates with what this festive season is all about. So if you are looking for a Christmas to remember, be the first to extend your hand. And if you can go a step further, make it last until Christmas comes again next year. Have a wonderful time giving and sharing. There is nothing to lose by caring.

POTENTIALLY LETHAL: Authorities have warned about the dangers of Victorian alkaloid poppies.

299

ZOINGO BOINGO

Poppy danger warning Authorities have warned flowering poppies on Victorian farms are potentially lethal. Department of Economic Development, Jobs, Transport and Resources industry specialist Shane Herbertson said Victorian poppies were bred differently to those grown in other countries and were toxic due to the quantities of thebaine they contain. Thebaine, in its raw form, is a toxic opiate alkaloid and only laboratory testing can confirm how much is in any one plant. Morphine is also present in Victoria’s poppies. It too is deadly and it is impossible to identify which plants have it with the naked eye. Mr Herbertson said while the State Government heavily regulated the poppy industry, it was inevitable that some people would be curious about poppies and be potentially misinformed. “Government and industry want to make it very clear – poppies grown in Victoria might look identical to other poppy plants but they are chemically very different and can be highly toxic to humans,” he said.

“Our bodies cannot process the chemicals found in the poppies grown here and using them in any way, including to make ‘poppy tea’, is life-threatening and should be treated as an emergency. Any dose can be fatal and should be treated as an emergency.” Mr Herbertson also warned the part of poppies used in medicines could only be extracted from Victorian poppies by industrial processing. He said taking them for any other use was not only illegal, but also dangerous. “While having a poppy industry in Victoria is overwhelmingly beneficial to regional and rural communities, people who were willing to illegally enter and-or take poppies from Victorian farms need to be aware of the risks they are taking,” he said. Mr Herbertson urged people who see any unusual or suspicious behaviour near poppy crops to report it to the police. For more information about poppies in Victoria, visit www.agriculture.vic.gov. au/poppies.

Citroen confirms production of E-Mehari convertible Citroen has revealed its EMehari all-electric convertible SUV, has the appearance of a futuristic concept car, will be rolled out in 2016.

The tiny zero-emissions vehicle has room for four people, all-terrain capability, removable roof, side panels for a ‘liberating driving experience’ and borrows many styling and function cues from the original 1968 Citroen Mehari allterrain vehicle. If it were to come to the Australian market it would join the Jeep Wrangler and forthcoming Land Rover Evoque in the niche convertible SUV segment. But Citroen Australia public relations and communications

manager Tyson Bowen cut any Australian hopes short. “It’s not something we would consider,” he said. “It’s a small electric vehicle that they use mostly for resorts running around Europe. No, there is no consideration to bring it here.” The little crossover has been created in collaboration with French investment and holding giant Bollore Group, which lent its experience in developing electric drivetrains and batteries. The E-Mehari uses a lithium metal polymer battery to deliver a 110km/h top speed and a city range of 200km. Citroen says the LMP battery is among the safest and most reliable on offer and is unaffected by extreme tempera-

ALL TERRAIN: Citroen’s E-Mehari ‘it car’ is a mix of original 1968 Mehari, modern C4 Cactus and outlandish concept. tures. A full charge takes eight hours on a high-current 16amp socket or 13 hours on a

standard domestic 10-amp outlet. Its body panels are plastic for durability and are available

in blue, orange, yellow and beige to contrast with two roof shades of black or orange-red. Interiors are trimmed in either beige or orange-red and are completely waterproof, allowing the transport of wet watersports gear or a complete hoseout, for example. The new addition to the European line-up shares some styling features from the Cactus M concept that broke cover at the Frankfurt motor show in September, as well as styling traits of the production C4 Cactus. Citroen has broken away from the DS sub-brand and is going in search of its own crowd with more playful and unique vehicles, which it says is evident with the announcement of the E-Mehari.

“Citroen is confirming its ambition to bring to market cheery, optimistic vehicles that are different from the rest,” it revealed in a statement. “The E-Mehari is an ‘it car’, designed to appeal to customers looking for an alternative vehicle with a positive outlook on life, attentive to trends and to the environment.” Fellow French car manufacturer Renault has also recently partnered with Bollore Group to produce a small Pininfarina-designed electric hatchback named the Bluecar at its factory in Dieppe, France. The E-Mehari made its debut at Citroen’s headquarters in Paris. Daniel Gardner Go Auto Media 2015

Dire prediction for parts-makers

bout 100 parts-makers are expected to close by the time Australian car manufacturing ceases in 2017, costing Victoria and South Australia tens of thousands of jobs, according to industry consultant Deloitte Australia.

In a sobering assessment of the immediate outlook, Deloitte partner Damon Cantwell estimated two-thirds of remaining parts-makers would be in ‘serious trouble’ in the next 12 months. Supporting this view, Federation of Automotive Products Manufacturers, FAPM, manager Tom Chappell said the closures would be a heavy blow to the industry and the economy. “It’s going to be substantial and it’s going to be significant,” he said. Many of the closures would be made by overseas companies closing Australian subsidiaries, according to Mr Chappell. “The problem is that the products they make are heavy, highly engineered, they’re expensive and they are expensive to transport,” he said. “When your customer wants sequenced, in-line delivery of those components, it doesn’t make sense to locate your supply plants in another

country, so when your manufacturing customer is overseas, that’s where you have to locate your supply plants. “This is a negative. This is plant and equipment that was established here that was productive and now it’s leaving the country.” Mr Cantwell said it was almost too late to do anything about it if a company had not already started diversifying or exporting as a ‘window is closing rapidly’. He said there were examples of companies that would survive the closure of the three car assembly plants – Ford, GM Holden and Toyota – by the end of 2017, but they had laid down their plans some years ago. Mr Cantwell said the Australian arm of the German giant Robert Bosch group and the relatively small Melbourne parts-maker MTM were examples of companies that had planned ahead. Bosch Australia is now the main source for the Bosch group of power diodes, a critical part used in vehicle alternators. It will soon be able once again to sell diodes to customers other than Bosch, and expects to double output to almost 200 million a year by 2020. In addition, 95 percent of the

engineering Bosch does in Australia is for offshore customers, maintaining high skills jobs in Australia. MTM makes door checks and gear selector mechanisms that sit on the top of the centre console. It has been exporting its door checks for some time and now provides the door checks used on every Cadillac. The company recently diversified and now manufactures all-terrain vehicle, the Tomcar. “MTM has been at the diversification and export game for 20 years,” Mr Cantwell said. “None of this happened overnight. “MTM chief executive Mark Albert has really done the hard yards over a number of years to insulate it from what’s ultimately happened in terms of the closure of the car manufacturing here.”

Not optimistic

But Mr Cantwell said he was not optimistic about the chances for other companies to achieve similar transformations. “That window is closing rapidly. One of the reasons is MTM and Bosch have seen this shift in domestic manufacturing a long way out. “So, for companies who are just

starting that process now, or who only started 12 months ago, 18 months ago, when the announcements were made, they are really playing catch-up and they need to be very smart about how they go about their market targeting. “The other aspect is to make sure that within their own management teams, and this is not always the case, they have the right skill sets around market development, marketing and the R and D story, which is so important to long-term exports.” Mr Chappell said one of the most interesting aspects of the MTM story was the company had a high percentage of engineers in its local workforce. “MTM has now got a business model where they have a high proportion of the high value jobs based here in Melbourne,” he said. “They have established a plant overseas to service those companies in low-cost environments. They can do those low-value jobs efficiently.” Mr Cantwell said the Tomcar project at MTM was indicative of a developing trend around the global vehicle industry of manufacturers establishing several smaller-volume plants instead of one large plant. “What has been a bit lost in the lo-

cal debate over the past two or three years is, what we have seen globally around new styles of vehicle manufacturing and you’d argue that at the micro level, Tomcar is an example of that,” he said. “Companies like Mahindra Reva, an electric vehicle company in India, are putting plants up around the world that only have capacity of 30,000 units a year. Now this is revolutionary compared with what has happened over the past 60 years of car manufacturing, where bigger has been better.” Mr Cantwell suggested it might be too late to look at this style of manufacturing in Australia. “There are windows closing left, right and centre and this is another of them,” he said. “The reality is, with 12 to 18 months to go, and I should preface this by saying if you look at the possibility of new-style manufacturers establishing here, you are not going to save 150 automotive suppliers. You might save 20 or 30, but the security of the skill base and the technology, the engineering smarts that goes with it, potentially can be secured.” Ian Porter Go Auto Media 2015

Mercedes Benz uncovers new SLC

ercedes-Benz has swapped a V8 engine for a bi-turbo V6 in the flagship AMG version of its refreshed and renamed SLC convertible sportscar.

In line with its global naming policy, Benz has dropped the old SLK moniker for SLC, with the ‘C’ highlighting the car’s close mechanical connection with the C-Class mid-sizer. The reveal of the reborn roadster falls nearly 20 years after the original SLK went on sale globally, and the new one will arrive in Australian showrooms in June next year. The biggest change is to powertrains, with Benz ditching the 310kW/540Nm 5.5-litre V8 from the SLK55 AMG and replacing it with a more fuel-efficient V6 unit. The new performance flagship will now be called the Mercedes-AMG SLC43 and is powered by a 3.0-litre biturbo V6 pumping out 270kW at 55006000rpm and 520Nm at 2000-4200rpm, which is 40kW and 20Nm less than the outgoing bent eight. It can dash from zero to 100km/h in 4.7 seconds – 0.1s slower than the outgoing V8 version –but its fuel consumption figure of 7.8 litres per 100km betters its more powerful predecessor by 0.7L/100km. The rival BMW Z4 sDrive35i uses a 250kW/450Nm 3.0-litre twin-turbo straight six and does the 0-100km/h sprint in 5.4s, while the Audi TTS Roadster delivers 210kW/380Nm from its 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo for a 4.7s 0-100km/h dash. The SLC line-up has four other variants, starting with a base SLC180 that employs a 115kW/250Nm 1.6-litre fourcylinder delivering fuel consumption of 5.6L/100km and a 0-100km/h time of 7.9s when paired with the six-speed manual, or 8.1s with the 9G-Tronic ninespeed dual-clutch auto. Next up is the 135kW/300Nm 2.0-litre four-pot in the SLC200 that consumes 6.1L/100km, 5.7L for the auto, and hits 100km/h in 7.0s, or 6.9s in auto guise. All other variants are auto-only, including the SLC300 that uses a 180kW/370 2.0-litre four, ensuring a 6.6s 0-100km/h time and fuel use of 5.8L. The most economical variant is the SLC250d, which is the sole diesel offering and is powered by a 150kW/500Nm 2.1-litre four-cylinder unit offering up fuel use of 4.4L/100km and a 0-100km/ h time of 6.6s. This variant is unlikely

to be made available Down Under. At the moment the Australian SLK lineup includes the SLK200, 250, 350 and SLK55 AMG. A full model line-up will be revealed at the Detroit motor show in January, but Australian pricing and specification will be announced closer to the launch. The SLC is not an all-new model, rather a major facelift of the third-generation SLK that arrived in mid-2011, but it gains a number of exterior styling tweaks to bring it into line with its more modern stablemates. Up front, the SLC gets a new bumper with larger, more aggressive air intakes, chrome trim, new headlights with LED daytime running lights, and a redesigned grille offered with the diamond pattern as standard across the range. At the rear there is a new bumper and diffuser housing the tailpipes, and new, narrower tail-lights. Cabin updates include a new instrument cluster, light or dark aluminium trim parts with a carbon-fibre finish, a new sports steering wheel updated leather and nappa leather trim and a new Comand infotainment system with a 7.0inch display. The ‘vario’ metal roof can now be opened or closed at speeds up to 40km/h, and the new automatic boot separator moves down when the roof is open if it is in the upper position for increased boot capacity. The SLC adds the Dynamic Select system that adjusts the engine, transmission, steering and suspension to the driver’s taste and includes Comfort, Sport, Sport+, Eco and Individual modes. The optional Dynamic Handling package lowers the ride height by 10mm and includes an adaptive damping system, direct steering and Dynamic Cornering Assist. In terms of safety, the SLC has autonomous emergency braking as standard, while options include a reversing camera, blind-spot and lane-keeping aid, an automatic high-beam adjustment function and traffic sign recognition. A DVD player, Bluetooth, internet radio, sat-nav, USB ports, and an SD card slot are also standard. The original SLK launched globally in March 1996, it went on sale in Australia in February 1997, in its three generations Benz has sold about 670,000 units. Tim Nicholson Go Auto Media 2015

To presume ‘they’ll be right’ because we just got on and rode when we were kids with no helmet, no boots and were okay is a load of rubbish. We were lucky, not safe. My number-one rule is ‘have fun, be safe’. The most important part of safety gear is the helmet. The first thing I tell any child is ‘if you don’t have a helmet on, don’t ride it, push it!’ Your head never heals, brain damage is forever. Firstly, your helmet needs to fit properly and become the outer shell

SAFETY FIRST: Jacob Williams, Merv’s son, shows the correct way to wear a helmet and goggles. of your head, so a snug fit is important. It needs to be firm but not tight. It should push your cheeks in a little and not move around on your head. The strap should be snug under your chin, not loose like a skipping rope. Don’t buy a helmet online. You risk the helmet not fitting properly or not complying with Australian safety standards. Goggles, long pants, boots and a long-sleeve shirt and gloves are important protection. Make sure the goggles fit in the

helmet and your child has good vision. Children can wear work boots until you can afford entry-level moto boots, wear jeans, not tracksuit pants, and any long-sleeve shirt or wind-cheater will be fine. Entry-level gloves and goggles cost about $30 each. Parents – please don’t jump on a bike in thongs and no helmet. Remember, children want to be just like mum or dad. Set the rules and make everyone adhere to them. As parents you are their first coach so you need to be familiar

with controls so you can pass on the knowledge. Children need to be aware of the brakes, throttle, clutch and, most importantly, the ‘kill switch’. It’s a good idea to go through this in the shed. Explain if they get into danger and can’t stop in time with brakes to stop the engine. Make them rev the engine a few times and understand what happens when you open and close the throttle. I have seen too many kids get on a bike and as it accelerates they panic and hold it wide open till they crash. When in an obstacle-free paddock, go through the controls again, have them ride a couple of metres and stop using the throttle control, brakes and clutch. Do this until they get it right, then have them ride forward and hit the kill switch to stop. Let them ride slowly doing some circles and figure eights. The more slow-riding procedures they do, the more at ease they will feel. Then go back to braking exercises, be patient and give lots of positive feedback. No high-speed riding should be allowed until you are confident they have mastered and can use the controls fluently. This could take weeks. Page

Angling at Christmas on the

ith only days until the fat man in a red suit turns up, it’s time to turn our attention to the region’s best prospects for a family fish and the chance to get children to test new gear.

Many family-friendly options are available and there’s some great fish on offer with a little bit of preparation. Boat or bank, people need to be careful around waterways. Remain courteous and most importantly observe safety rules and regulations. Many anglers run the gauntlet of fishing without wearing their life jackets or PFDs. Also keep in mind with lower water levels, many submerged obstacles such as logs and stumps are starting to appear, which can not only damage boats and motors but injure boaters and their crew. Murray Cod limits: Remember the size limit in Victoria and NSW is now 55 to 75 centimetres. Bag limits apply of one fish in rivers and two in lakes.

Lake Fyans

After a successful day at Fyans earlier filming an episode for Merv Hughes Fishing, it was exciting to see so many good fish on offer. Trolling and casting were the best methods, using small hardbody lures and soft plastics to land three brown trout and six rainbows in two short sessions as well as nice redfin.

BITE

Trevor Holmes VICTORIAN INLAND CHARTERS

With the predicted holiday traffic at Fyans, there will be many stories told of great fish in the coming weeks. Bait wise you can’t go past mudeye fished under a bubble float for best results.

Lake Toolondo

With low water levels at Toolondo, launching and retrieving has become difficult and a four-wheel drive vehicle is a must. There’s still some great fish in the lake but the hot weather will take its toll over summer. We were lucky enough to strike ideal conditions at the weekend and land several good fish including three brown trout of 57, 58 and 64 centimetres, with the bigger one weighing in at 3.5 kilograms. There’s not many redfin in the lake and what’s there are small. The rainbow trout have all but disappeared apart from new-release fish of about 900 grams.

Lake Wartook

A friend trekked to Wartook and came away satisfied last week, catching more than 20 trout and a handful of good redfin in a two-day jaunt. Fishing the shallow edges early and

late when the fish ventured in chasing smelt and minnows proved deadly. During the brighter middle of the day they fished mudeye at about two metres and landed some nice browns including one that went close to 4kg. Wartook will probably be one of the better options over the festive period because it doesn’t see as much boat action as other lakes and produces some sensational fish.

Rocklands Reservoir

With water levels dropping at Rocklands, it’s going to be tough going as was the case in early spring. The fish become unsettled and not willing to feed for long periods but when the outflow stops there will be some great angling because the redfin will school up again. Stumpjumpers have proven the best option at Rocklands, slow-trolled in about four to five metres of water. Jigging over sounded up schools has also been very rewarding. Rocklands is becoming a bit of a target for bass anglers with some good fish taken early morning and last light. Trout should be a good option on the troll and casting the shallows with soft plastics and shallow-running hardbody lures.

Taylors Lake

Still producing a few nice cod and golden perch on the troll as well as bait such as yabbies and scrub worms. The worms will be targeted by pesky

carp as well as small silver perch, but persistence does pay off. Best times for cod and yellas is early and late in the day or through the night. Big deep diving lures trolled close to snags and trees are the best cod option. There’s been several nice redfin landed on bait by bank anglers.

Wimmera River

Campers and caravan masses will probably land some lovely fish in close to the towns mainly on bait such as worms and yabbies. But it’s those venturing further out, casting lures and spinnerbaits to snags, trees and drop-offs that will produce the more consistent numbers and better fish. Lower Norton and beyond has been the better location of late and there are many access areas. But please be respectful of private property. As the water stabilises after an environmental

Bank anglers have done well since the opening of the cod season on December 1. Holding many cod and a few redfin, the lovely little lake out west has seen many happy anglers of late. Yabbies, scrub worms, bardi grubs and raw chicken strips soaked in soy sauce have produced fish up to 80cm but many below the slot limit of 55 to 75cm. Boating has become a little difficult with low levels. Expect a lot of ski boats over summer. • Victorian Inland Charters, 0438 132 130.

Bombers recruit Fedke

immera netball stalwart Sharon Fedke will swap leagues in 2016 after signing on to coach Horsham District outfit NoradjuhaQuantong.

WINNER: Jake Waterfield is pictured with the 1.806-kilogram yellowbelly that won him a Horsham Angling Club’s Christmas competition on the Wimmera River. Other results, adult, Grant Kemp, 0.825kg yellowbelly 1, Larelle Souter, 0.490kg silver perch 2, Gary Anson 0.393kg silver perch. The event attracted 31 adults and eight juniors. The club will run its Wednesday twilight competitions on January 6, 13 and 20. The competitions are from 5pm to 9pm.

Wednesday, December 23, 2015

Fedke – who spent a decade at former Wimmera club Horsham United followed by two seasons at Horsham Saints – will co-coach the Bombers’ A Grade side with returning coach Yolly Francis. Fedke has a wealth of playing and coaching experience at both Wimmera Netball Association and regional level. She said her decision to leave the Wimmera association was difficult, but was excited about the new opportunity. “I’m not getting any younger – I don’t have that many years of playing left,” she said. “I’ve known Noradjuha-Quantong’s Rachel Pipkorn since I first moved here 12 years ago and played with her at United. “I’ve also known Yolly for years and played netball with her socially. When she approached me about the role, I thought it was a good opportunity to play netball with friends I never get to play with on Saturdays.” Francis said the club was thrilled to secure a playing coach of Fedke’s calibre. “We are very excited to have Sharon – her wealth of knowledge and experience is something we knew we wanted in our team and club,” she said. “She will provide our young team with a lot of support and encouragement and

Sharon Fedke gives us another leader on and off the court.” The Bombers played finals in 2015 and were bundled out by Laharum in the first semi-final. “This year was such an enjoyable year coaching our great bunch of girls, and I’m looking forward to building on that in 2016,” Francis said. Fedke said she was looking forward to mentoring up-and-coming Bombers. “My goal with all my sport is to give back what I have received,” she said. “My aim is to pass on the knowledge I’ve attained from other coaches and players over the years. “If I can do this – and see a player grow through listening and taking advice – then I feel I have achieved something.” Fedke became a Wimmera Netball Association life member in 2014. She is also a life member of Horsham

Fedke said she would continue to keep up-to-date about what was happening in the Wimmera competition “My feelings about the league and the players I have played with will never change,” she said. “I have great respect for the people I have played with and against and those friendships will remain. The Wimmera association will always be a huge part of me.” Noradjuha-Quantong president Tim Kelly said the club was preparing for another strong year on the court. Four of the Bombers’ seven netball teams contested grand finals this year, with B Grade and C Reserve winning flags. Mr Kelly said he was looking forward to building on the club’s success. “Sharon is an experienced player and coach, and she and Yolly are both excited for what the coming year will bring,” he said. Noradjuha-Quantong’s B Grade side will push for a sixth consecutive HDFNL premiership in 2016 under joint coaches Chloe Gabbe and Georgia Francis. Mr Kelly said coaches for C Grade and C Reserve were under negotiation and would be announced early next year. The Bombers have also appointed junior coaches, with Yolly Francis and Pipkorn returning to coach the 17 and unders, Gabbe and Katrina Kerr, 15 and under coaches and Kylee Walter, 13 and under.

Hornets’ victory builds for finals BY SARAH SCULLY orsham Hornets kept their Country Basketball League finals hopes alive with a convincing 41-point win over Terang on Saturday night.

The Hornets had the Tornadoes’ measure early in what was at times a scrappy affair, but Terang refused to concede. Horsham led by eight points at the first change and 13 points at half-time, but it was a 28-to18-point third quarter that gave the Hornets the breathing room they needed to turn the game over to the team’s juniors. Led by James Hallett – with a game-high 23 points – the Hornets’ younger brigade showcased its skills in front of an appreciative home crowd in the last quarter. Coach Cam Bruce, 12 points, said it was great to finish the year on a high. “It was a must-win game for us in terms of finals,” he said. “If we lost, we were out, so it was good to finish the year on a positive note and now we can look forward to next year. “The young guys played really well, particularly James, who keeps getting better and

Horsham d Terang, 93-52 Terang d Stawell, 88-61 better. He’s been training with us and doing really well over the past few weeks, so if we’re lucky enough to play finals, it puts him in a good position.” Bruce said the team would enjoy a break over Christmas and New Year before returning for its last game of the home-andaway season against bottom side Timboon on January 10. “To make finals we need to win that game as well, but we also need to hope for another team to lose its games,” he said. “It’s not ideal, but it’s the position we’ve found ourselves in this year.” Bruce also paid tribute to the Hornets’ supporters. “The past two opposition coaches have mentioned how good it is to play here in front of a crowd,” he said.

“We’re grateful for the support, it’s like having an extra player on the court each week.”

Wildcats

A 25-point game-high performance from Stawell’s Jarred Ohayon was not enough to get the Wildcats over the line against Terang on Sunday. Stawell enjoyed a strong start to the encounter, dropping 19 points to 11 in the first term to take an eight-point buffer into the first break. But the Tornadoes stepped up a gear in the second quarter, shooting 28 points to 14 to lead by six points at half-time. Terang went on to dominate the third quarter. The Wildcats were more competitive in the last, but the damage had already been done. Aidan Marr, 12 points, was the only other Wildcat to finish with double figures. Keane and Scott Judd were standouts for Terang, contributing 23 points apiece. The Wildcats have a break until January 17, when they travel to Colac to take on the Kookas. They will finish off their season against cellar-dweller Timboon the following week.

Wimmera clubs receive equipment grants Wicket for Koop Sports and recreation clubs throughout the region will receive grants as part of the first round of VicHealth’s 2015-16 Active Club Grants program.

Member for Lowan Emma Kealy said the grants aimed to increase or maintain participation in physical activity by funding equipment such as bats, portable goals, uniforms and balls. The following clubs will receive grants of up to $3000: Horsham Hockey Club, $1452; Kaniva Hockey Club, $2700;

Natimuk Tennis Club, $720; Natimuk United Football Netball Club, $2699; Wimmera Kart Racing Club, $3000; Wimmera Roller Derby League, $2977. “This funding is vital to help more Victorians reach the recommended 2.5 hours each week of moderate physical activity,” Ms Kealy said. “Sport builds a sense of community, particularly in regional areas where it is one of the best ways for communities to come together.

“As well as the physical benefits of preventing illnesses, getting active helps maintain mental wellbeing, keeping us alert and resilient against the stresses of modern life. “Now is a timely reminder as we head into the Christmas and New Year period when we usually have a chance to relax and perhaps eat more than we usually do.” VicHealth chief executive Jerril Rechter said VicHealth was proud to continue to support

sporting organisations, particularly in disadvantaged areas of Victoria. “VicHealth is committed to addressing rising obesity levels in Victoria and as part of this, we want to make physical activity participation part of everyday living,” she said. “Previous rounds have shown us that these grants encourage people to try new activities, support them to join their local club or continue playing their favourite sport.”

against Windies Former West Wimmera Association cricketer Jackson Koop, 20, has performed strongly while playing for a Victorian Invitational Eleven against a touring West Indian team at Geelong. Koop captured 1-45 from 14 overs, claiming the wicket of opener Rajendra Chandrika for 28. Chandrika shouldered arms and was trapped lbw. The West Indies made 7-303 at stumps in the two-day game as players from both sides battled oppressive heat. Koop, a bowling all-rounder, plays for Melbourne in Victoria’s Premier cricket competition and cut his teeth in the game as a junior at Nhill.

Rooney eyes return to Horsham track BY TONY LOGAN

ll eyes were on the glamour horse Philadelphia Man as he crossed the finish line to claim victory over stablemate Restrepo in the 2015 Horsham Pacing Cup.

Eight metres away in third place, a 2-1 chance called Arden Rooney gave barely a hint of greater glory to come. Leviathan owners Merv and Meg Butterworth had sent their handy pacer across the ditch just four days earlier to the Great Western stables of Kerryn Manning, to be trained for an assault on the rich Victorian Country Cups and Summer Of Glory carnivals. The following week at Hamilton, Arden Rooney finished second, albeit 20 metres away from the ultra-impressive cup winner Restrepo. At his next outing he finished a handy fifth to Bit Of A Legend in The Pure

Steel at Melton, beaten by 5.3 metres. A fortnight later Arden Rooney and Kerryn Manning shocked most punters with their 80-1 victory in the $400,000 Hunter Cup at Melton – similar to this year’s Melbourne Cup – and in quick succession saluted in the Terang and Geelong cups, Swan Hill FFA, Melton FFA and Mildura Cup. The gelded son of Bettors Delight USA headed to the paddock for a well-deserved break over the winter before Manning prepared her charge for a campaign back in his homeland. With the benefit of three runs under the belt, Arden Rooney returned to his best with a stunning victory in the Nyah-Swan Hill Pacing Cup, 1:57.3 from the 30-metre backmark over the staying journey of 2790 metres. Manning’s husband Grant Campbell took Arden Rooney

over to Christchurch the following week to prepare for the New Zealand Cup and the gelding showed he was up for the fight, with a pipe-opening victory in the $30,000 Kakoura Cup on November 2. He went on to win New Zealand’s richest and toughest race, two miles from the standing start – the $750,000 Group One New Zealand Trotting Cup – at Addington, Christchurch, on November 10. Manning became the first female to drive the winner of the race that stops the nation in the Land of the Long White Cloud and also the first female trainer, along with co-trainer Campbell, to take it out. So onward to Horsham pacing and trotting cups day, on January 10. Make sure you’re trackside for a fantastic day of action and entertainment both on and off the track. Who knows what fairy tales might lie ahead?

A heat rule, which forced officials to abandon Horsham and Grampians matches on the weekend, robbed Homers’ Simon Hopper at a chance to hit 500 runs before Christmas. Hopper leads Horsham batting stocks with 488 at an average of 97.6. Horsham Saints’ Josh Carroll has captured 16-132, at 8.25, to lead Horsham bowling figures. Jake Leith is one of the reasons Donald leads WimmeraMallee competition, leading a

batting aggregate with 272 at 45.33. Adrian Love from Hopetoun is the leading bowler with 19-155 at 8.16. Horsham and Grampians cricket associations resumes on January 16 and WimmeraMallee cricketers return to the field on January 9.

OPPORTUNITY: Kerryn Manning and Billy Brownless charge to victory at Melton in a Celebrity Charity Challenge to launch the 2016 Summer Of Glory Carnival. Patrons at Horsham Harness Racing Club’s cup race-day on January 10 have a chance take Brownless’ spot in HRV’s double seater sulky for the ride with Manning – the world’s greatest reinswoman. After a briefing from club stewards, the winning driver will be outfitted with safety vest, racing silks, helmet, gloves and goggles. They will then climb into the sulky and head onto the 1000-metre Horsham circuit.

Cricketers to resume in January YOUR ONE STOP Homers, Buangor and Donald lead their respective A Grade cricket competitions as they all head into a Christmas-New Year break.

Buangor leads the Grampians competition with Harry Ganley leading association bowling figures with 22-144 at an average of 6.55. Ganley has also hit 332 runs at 41.5 to trail Youth Club’s Jamie Solyom who tops the table at 344, averaging 43.
