Staying safeFunding hopes high for scheme to protect women

By BLAIR THOMSONCO-ORDINATORS of an award winning program that protects vul-nerable women and their children are confident the service will return to full strength.

Bsafe provides devices that alert authorities when victims of family violence are in danger, but govern-ment funding was not renewed for the pilot program and most devices returned.

Donations totalling $30,000 have kept the service running at a bare minimum for those most

at risk, including two women in Wodonga and two in Wangaratta.

Co-ordinator Rachel Mackay said Bsafe staff were “three-quar-ters” of the way towards securing the $250,000 necessary to con-tinue the service for the next three years.

“If we get that donation from a private company we’re probably able to fund about 12 women, pos-sibly more, and goodness knows how many kids would be attached to those women,” she said.

“We’ll be able to operate at full

capacity and help about 100 people over those three years.

“We’re in the process of dis-cussions and fingers crossed, that money will come through.”

Funding for the pilot program ran out in August and nine of 13 devices were handed back.

Ms Mackay said they still hadn’t heard anything from the state gov-ernment as to why the program hasn’t received funding.

“For women and children, Bsafe is something that is indescribable for them,” she said.

“It allows them to remain in their own homes and communities and have that extra protection and safety.

“One of the workers said to me today that they’re no longer prison-ers in their own homes, they can resume a normal life.

“Some women not on this pro-gram, they feel unsafe to leave their house.

“It also makes it easier for them to contact police if something does happen.”

Ms Mackay said she expected to

find out within a month if the un-named company would donate to the service, which is run by Wom-en’s Health Goulburn North East.

“People can also donate through our website or Facebook,” she said.

“Even if people can’t donate money towards it, they can show support in other ways like joining the Facebook page.”

She said the group was set to re-sume taking referrals after receiv-ing public donations from across Australia, with three enquiries made this week.

So much valuefor women forso little cash

NWEDITORIAL

IT is an unfortunate fact of life that so many unions that start with love end with ill-feeling and, at times, violence.

While the violence can at times be a two-way street, the majority of the time it is the man who resorts to this method of hopefully controlling his partner.

It was not so many years ago the com-munity adopted an attitude that domestic violence was something best ignored and left to the protagonists to sort out them-selves.

The problem with this was that many women were belted black and blue on a daily basis and their plight was ignored by the people and organisations they ex-pected would help them.

Today things have changed for the bet-ter.

Men who resort to violence can look forward to answering for their misdeeds, with domestic violence being high on the agenda of our police.

While most offenders pull their heads in after a visit from the law, there are still a small number of men who believe they are the “boss” of the family and have every right to take out their anger and frustra-tions on their weaker partner.

For these women life can become a nightmare.

They live with the knowledge that danger lurks around every corner and the night is no time to relax.

The Bsafe program is one way some of these victims can be given the security to know help is virtually just the press of a button away.

In this region the program has proved to be an overwhelming success.

But in another baffling argument in-volving money between the state and fed-eral governments the funding that had al-lowed the scheme to start was pulled.

The result is that for $250,000 the project is at threat and women at risk of violence have been left without help.

It is time the governments stopped their petty antics and provided the cash that is so urgently needed.

Night to aid young battler

Carolyn best entrant in Albion naming

By BERNAdETTE cANNIZZAROTHE Bubbly Charity is holding a ladies night at the Regent Cinema on October 20, com-mencing from 6pm in support of the Hayne family.

Asher Hayne is a bright 16-month-old boy who was diagnosed with a brain tumor after nine days of early morning vomiting and visits to the doctor.

Asher was taken to the Albury emergency department where a CT scan of his brain re-vealed Asher had a tumor on the bottom part of his brain.

He was flown to the Royal Children’s Hos-pital in Melbourne and had an MRI which showed the tumor the size of an orange.

He underwent surgery to insert an inter-nal drain to relieve the fluid build up in his brain and on September 4, Asher underwent a 12½ hour operation to remove the tumor.

Spending two days in Intensive Care Unit, a post operative MRI showed the tumor was successfully removed.

A biopsy revealed the tumor was a Me-dulloblastoma tumor, which is a highly ma-lignant primary brain tumor that originates in the cerebellum or posterior fossa (a type of cancer).

Unfortunately the best treatment for this cancer is a combination of both chemother-apy and radiation therapy, but Asher is only 16-months-old and his brain would be se-verely damaged by the radiation therapy and so he must undergo six cycles of very inten-sive chemotherapy which will take between six and eight months.

Asher is to spend this time in Melbourne, away from his two sisters, who remain in Al-bury under the care of grandparents while parents Ian and Amy stay at the Ronald Mc-Donald house alternating nights to be with Asher.

This is a trying time for the Hayne family, and so the Bubbly Charity have organised a movie night to raise much needed funds for the family.

The cost of the event is $30 and includes a glass of bubbly, followed by the movie star-ring Owen Wilson, Midnight in Paris, with proceeds going to the family.

For tickets please contact the Bubbly Charity on 0403 291 061 and support the group which supports families in need in our area.

BATTLER: A night out at the pictures will help Asher Hayne and his family.

By BLAIR THOMSONCAROLYN Re is the lucky winner of NewsWeekly’s competition for suggestions to name the new roof-top restaurant set to open at the Albion Hotel in November.

Her entry, “On the Albi”, was considered by Albion co-owner Brendon Cooper to be the best of the many entries.

“So she’ll win a $100 voucher which she can use at the hotel,” Mr Cooper said.

“It was the best sugges-tion, but I don’t think we’ll end up using the name for the new level.”

An excited Ms Re said she would share the prize with friends.

Wiggleshit the right notefor theirjunior admirers FUN: The Wiggles, who will perform on the Border next week, often “jam out” to Bob Dylan and Rolling Stones songs in soundchecks.

Freedom subjectof women’s day

WOMEN will discuss freedom from addic-tion, depression, guilt and fear at Wodonga District Baptist Church’s inaugural women’s conference on October 22.

The day event, titled Freedom, will fea-ture Wangaratta’s Barb Detlefsen as keynote speaker, followed by electives on a series of issues women often struggle with, conclud-ing with an afternoon of pampering, craft and “chilling out” with a cappuccino.

Mrs Detlefsen, who has a powerful testi-mony to give on her own experience of the power of Christ in her life, will discuss her desire to see women live in the freedom Christ died to give.

Organiser Mandy Stark said the confer-ence was for Christian women or women in-terested in exploring who they are and what their purpose in life is.

The conference will run from 9am to 4.30pm on Saturday, October 22, at Wodon-ga District Baptist Church, 154 Melrose Drive, Wodonga.

By BLAIR THOMSONSHORT, repetitive and quick to the point.

Those are the ingredients for cre-ating great children’s songs accord-ing to Jeff Fatt, the sleepy, purple skivvy wearing member of The Wig-gles, who will visit the Border next week.

Using this simple formula, The Wiggles have conquered the world with their catchy tunes acting as the soundtrack to the early years of countless children across the globe.

In 20 years they’ve sold more than 23 million videos and CDs, seven million albums and had nine ARIA nominations, gathering fans like Robert De Niro, Jerry Seinfeld and Mick Fleetwood in the process.

“It all comes from the children and understanding where they’re coming from,” Jeff told NewsWeekly of the group’s success.

“It’s a bit like a jingle or a classic 60s style song that doesn’t go for all that long because the attention spans of children aren’t all that long.

“They can play a song over and

over and over again, much to the chagrin of parents on a long car trip ... they might hear a Wiggles album about 100 times,” he added with a laugh.

Tracks like Hot Potato, Fruit Salad and Big Red Car are known by parents as much as their children with characters like Dorothy the Di-nosaur, Wags the Dog, Henry the Oc-topus and Captain Feathersword the Friendly Pirate just as recognisable.

“They’re all in our Big Tent show,” 58-year-old Jeff said.

“It’s got a really intimate atmo-sphere because it’s limited to about 3000 people, it’s a round stage so ev-eryone gets a really good view of the stage and are in very close proximity to it.

“We’re loving it because you get that really good feedback from the audience.

“It’s one big crazy sort of a party.”Jeff, who until recently hadn’t

missed a show in 20 years, has re-turned to the band’s live line-up after having a pacemaker installed.

“My heart rate was dropping be-

low 30 beats a minute,” he explained. “My GP thought it was just be-

cause I was so fit, but apparently pacemakers are a fairly routine op-eration.

“It’s all operating really well at the moment and touch wood we’ll get another 20 years out of it ... I’m just so grateful to resume with the band.”

While best known for their co-lourful shows and cheerful songs, pre-show soundchecks are quite dif-ferent.

“We usually jam out on some rock songs, whatever is the flavour of the day for us, usually done without the skivvies on,” Jeff said.

“It’s a few guys having a good time, having a bit of a jam of any-thing from The Stones to Bob Dylan to The Gospel.”

Their shows at Gateway Lakes on the Lincoln Causeway on Tuesday, October 18, and Wednesday, October 19, will run for more than an hour.

Rotary visit markedTHE relationship between Ro-tarians in Australia and the US will be marked by a tree planting ceremony in Albury on Friday (today).

Albury Mayor Cr Alice Gla-chan will join local and visiting Rotarians for the event to be held at 2.30pm at Brown’s Lagoon.

The event will be a perma-nent reminder of a friendship ex-change between Rotary Districts 5080 (USA and Canada) and District 9790 (Australia)

The visitors arrived in Aus-tralia for the exchange on Octo-ber 4 and will return home on Sunday, October, 16.

During the stay they will visit the the Rotary Clubs of Eltham, Myrtleford, Shepparton and Al-bury North and Albury Hume.

As well as the tree planting ceremony, the Canadians will visit Wonga Wetlands, Burraja Cultural Centre and the Flying Fruit Fly Circus.

Conmen target ofBorder campaign

By BLAIR THOMSONTRAVELLING conmen are the target of a na-tional campaign launched on the Border.

NSW Fair Trading Minister Anthony Roberts and Victorian Minister for Consum-er Affairs Michael O’Brien hope a new hot-line and greater cross-Border communica-tion will stamp out “gangs” of dodgy traders who target the vulnerable.

“Travelling conmen don’t respect con-sumers and they certainly don’t respect bor-ders,” Mr O’Brien said.

“And for that reason it’s essential that ju-risdictions work together to tackle this very serious issue.”

Mr O’Brien said the signing of a memo-randum of understanding between the two states would allow both to work closer to-gether.

“In Victoria, unfortunately this year we’ve had dozens of reports of traveling con-men,” he said.

“We have, we believe, over $180,000 al-ready lost to these scams in Victoria alone.

“Because some people are reluctant to re-port being ripped off, we believe the figure is far higher than that.”

Mr Roberts said “organised crime gangs” who offer cheap, cash-only deals for services like laying bitumen and roof repairs, and fail to properly complete the job, cost communi-ties “tens-of-millions of dollars” each year.

“And for a number of years organised crime gangs have been escaping punishment,

simply because they’re highly mobile and have targetted sections of the commu-nity who are most vulnerable to scams,” he said.

The new hotline would allow law enforce-ment officials to gather intelligence and shut down the dodgy services, he added.

Mr O’Brien said Victorian flood victims had been targeted by the groups.

“It’s a terrible thing when people are pre-pared to prey on people’s trust,” he said.

“So by bringing NSW and Victoria to-gether we feel we’ll be much better placed to tackle these problems and also educate the community on how to avoid getting ripped off.”

Anyone who suspects they have been tar-geted should call the new hotline on 1300 133 408.

New display home ‘a winner’By TREVOR JAcKSONGJ GARDNER Homes are delighted with the re-sponse to their new display home at Fairway Gardens Estate according to sales consultant, Mick Murphy.

Mr Murphy said the home attracted around 180 visitors over the course of last weekend, far exceed-ing what they’d expected.

He said many people had inspected the home as a result of the feature in last week’s NewsWeekly while others had watched it throughout the building phase and were eager to see the finished product.

“Probably 99 percent of those people thought it was a stunning display home,” Mr Murphy said.

“A lot of people com-mented that it felt like

a family home and they could imagine themselves living there.”

Mr Murphy said the lo-cation at Fairway Gardens Estate backing onto the golf course was now very convenient with new in-frastructure at Thurgoona and felt it created a true country feel with city con-venience.

“It’s a major develop-ment but people aren’t on top of one another,” he said.

“It’s got some open green spaces and with the trees surrounding it has that almost rural type feel to it.

“A lot of people said it was by far the best dis-play home they’d seen and you have to be happy with that.”

On your bike, the messageBy BLAIR THOMSONBORDER bike riders joined cyclists around the country for Ride to Work Day this week.

Organisers estimated 150,000 Australians rode to work on Wednesday, with dozens of Border commuters stopping at council events at the Albury tax office car park, Nandos in Lavington and at Woodland Grove, Wodonga, on their way to work.

Albury Council’s road safety officer, Lauren Toroc-sik, said there was a strong bike riding community on the Border.

Wodonga Mayor Mark Byatt was one of the many lo-cals that used pedal power on Wednesday.

He said cycling was a good way of reducing pollution and also had health benefits.

Clubs can bet on these grants

SPORTING clubs from Albury Wodonga are being invited to apply for a new fund-ing grant with a difference as part of the Betfair Cash 4 Clubs campaign.

The point of difference in this com-munity program is that clubs can choose what they want to do with the money.

The additional resources can be used to improve facilities, gain coaching quali-fications, invest in the sustainability of their club or quite literally purchase a bar-becue or a new kitchen sink!

Australian cricket legend, Greg Chap-pell has thrown his weight behind the pro-gram.

Group aims to helpmigrants settle in

By BLAIR THOMSONFORMER UK citizen Victoria Gilbert admits moving to the Border three years ago was a tough ask.

Like many migrants, Ms Gil-bert left friends, family and the comfort of a small town to dive into a new life with her husband in Australia.

“It was quite lonely and iso-lating,” the former Hereford-shire resident told NewsWeekly.

“It took time to get used to a new style of living.

“I think it probably takes about 12 months to two years be-fore you really settle in.”

To help other English citi-zens that are thinking of moving to the Border, or have already migrated, Ms Gilbert started Brits in Albury Wodonga.

Australian Bureau of Statis-tics data from the 2006 Census shows more than 3000 Border people were born in England, about 2.5 per cent of the popula-tion.

“It’s a group to assist exist-ing British families in the area to connect with local services, local advice, support, and to meet oth-er people in similar situations,” Ms Gilbert said.

“I thought it could help peo-ple settle in but also promote the area to other families looking to move to Australia but don’t know where to go.

“It’s a new group and I just

want people to know that if they want to have a chat to someone that’s been through the same situation, they know we’re here.”

Brits in Albury Wodonga started two months ago and has 20 members who meet for social gatherings.

“One of the people in the group who I’ve become friends with, she said her first Christmas was quite difficult, and I said me too, she said she just wanted to be with her family, I said me too,” Ms Gilbert said.

“So there are lots of similari-

ties and it helps you to adjust.”“I love it here,” Ms Gilbert

said. “I’ve made some really good friends.”

To join the group or for more information, visit Brits In Albury Wodonga on Facebook or call Ms Gilbert on 0458 684 254.

Victoria over the moon as her petXena is home again

By BLAIR THOMSONVICTORIA Wood-Bradley is “over the moon” after her stolen dog Xena, who she describes as her best friend, was found alive and well.

The two-year-old Alaskan malamute was taken from Al-bury Centro almost a month ago and finally reunited with her owner last week.

“I’m over the moon, doing back flips … every day is just 10 times better having her here,” Ms Wood-Bradley said.

“I thought I’d seen her so many times, had so many tip-offs and I’d get so close, but they wouldn’t have the same eyes or whatever.

“Seeing her was the best feeling ever.”

Xena had spent nine days in an Shepparton animal shel-ter before being found by Ms Wood-Bradley.

She said the dog had been micro-chipped but her details were not up to date.

“I called up the chip com-pany and asked if there was any way she could be re-registered and they said the dog was down but my details were wrong,” she said.

“If she didn’t have a chip, she would have been put down already, but they usually hold on a bit longer if they’re chipped.

“But they wouldn’t have held on for too much longer, that’s for sure.”

About 1000 posters had been placed around the Bor-der seeking information on Xena and images of the alleged thieves posted on Facebook.

“I’m pretty sure I know who did it and the cops will hopefully

charge them, but they can only arrest them if they come back into the state,” Ms Wood-Brad-ley said.

“So there’s not much the po-lice can do.

“They haven’t really told me all that much.”

Ms Wood-Bradley will now keep a much closer eye on Xena

with “big padlocks” to keep out would-be theives.

“I’m treating her like a queen with top food, all proper meat and really enjoying every second I’ve got with her,” she said.

“It’s so good to have a sec-ond chance.

“I want to thank the public and media who helped a lot.”

Have your sayon laws to keepwaterways safe

THE NSW Government is looking for peo-ple interested in joining the State’s Mari-time Advisory Council.

The Maritime Advisory Council will advise the Ports Minister Duncan Gay on strategic matters concerning the promo-tion of boating and other waterways based activities.

Waterways safety, environment, navi-gation, regulation, infrastructure, com-munity issues and the development of the maritime industry in NSW are part of the council’s brief.

Mr Gay said the first priorities will be to help develop a policy agenda for safety reforms, access to waterways and boat storage.

“The council will comprise of up to nine members who can offer expert advice which is representative of the major rec-reational boating and commercial vessel sectors,” he said.

“Council members will be appointed for a three year term with eligibility for re-nomination and re-appointment.

“The council will meet at least two times per year,” he said.

It is estimated that 1.5 million people go boating each year in NSW and there are now more than 250,000 registered vessels.

Expressions of interest, including details of relevant personal experience, qualifications and other relevant details, should be marked confidential, and for-warded to Office of Boating Safety NSW Maritime, Locked Bag 5100, Camper-down, NSW 1450.

Which future are you looking forward to?The Albury region is facing some serious challenges. Recycling rates are below average and our landfill is filling fast. With new Statelandfill taxes and the proposed emissions trading scheme pushing up rates and tipping costs, the time has come to make a change.

Of the 200,000 tonnes of waste we landfill each year, nearly 75% could be recycled. Our goal is to recycle an additional 100,000 tonnesof this waste – effectively halving the amount sent to landfill – to keep our environment, and our future, looking bright. You can helpby joining the Halve Waste campaign to reduce waste and increase recycling at home, work and school.

Because a brighter future can be achieved by halves.

Night of funa boost

for Cooinda COOINDA Family Support Group will hold its second annual variety night next Thurs-day, October 20.

The Commercial Club will be the venue for a line-up of local talent providing what promises to be a fantastic night of entertain-ment.

A variety of music, song, dance and com-edy acts will be on offer.

Among the entertainers are unique coun-try pop icon Louise Egan, The Remnants playing Oz rock covers with a Celtic bush fla-vour, bush poet Jeff Jackson, (aka “Bastard from the Bush”) telling a few tall tales, the downright funny comedian Spud Murphy, and virtuosic dancers and musicians from the Regional Academy of Performing Arts and the Murray Conservatorium.

The River’s breakfast show hosts, Kevin and Luisa, will be hosts for the evening, serv-ing up the night’s entertainment with their characteristic banter, keeping everything rolling along with an extra dose of fun and cheekiness.

The door price includes finger food and soft drinks.

There will also be full bar and table ser-vice.

Ticket prices are Cooinda members $5, all others $12, or $10 per person for groups of 10.

Bookings are essential, by phoning Coo-inda on 6056 4844.

The evening is part of Carers’ Week which runs from October 16-22.

Cooinda currently provides services to over 600 families in Albury Wodonga and outlying areas.

It provides an opportunity for families to meet each other, share experiences and in-formation and give ongoing mutual support in order to relieve some of the stresses on the family that arise with disability.

The extended family and friends are en-couraged to become involved in activities which include seminars, workshops, advo-cacy, education, social and fund-raising ac-tivities.

Carers provide unpaid care and support to family members and friends who have a disability, mental illness, chronic condition, terminal illness or who are frail aged.

There are currently over 2.6 million un-paid family carers in Australia, more than 770,000 of whom are primary carers – the people who provide the most care.

Carers are an integral part of Australia’s health system and are the foundation of our aged, disability, palliative and community care systems.

The annual replacement value of care provided in 2010 is over $40.9 billion.

It is estimated that carers provided 1.32 billion hours of unpaid care in 2010, the pro-ductivity loss of which is estimated at $6.5 billion.

Eliminatingpoverty atcentre of

action weekALBURY Wodonga will again participate in a national week of action against poverty next week.

Anti Poverty Week is a national campaign that runs from October 16-22.

It aims to raise community awareness of poverty locally and internationally.

It has been estimated that more than a million Australians are affected by poverty and severe hardship; more than a billion people around the world are desperately poor.

Convenor of the Albury Wodonga Anti Poverty Week working group, Ian Bedford, said local activities will be launched at Wood-land Grove, from 10.30 am on Monday.

Local schools will be involved and there will be a display of silhouettes, representing the face of local poverty.

That evening St John’s Anglican Church, in association with St Stephen’s Uniting Church in Wodonga will host “Monsoon” a simulation game which enables participants to experience life in a rural Indian village, subjected to the vagaries of monsoons, crop production and money lenders.

Following last year’s successful display

of artwork in “Reflections on High” students from Wodonga Senior Secondary School have created works that depict their under-standing of an aspect of poverty.

This display will run for the rest of the month.

On Thursday night St David’s Uniting Church in Albury will host a talk on the im-pact of economic and social disadvantage in our region.

Liz Chapman, Community Programs Manager with UnitingCare Goulburn North East will speak of the impact of poverty on children.

People can join with her in celebrating the cohesiveness in rural communities that can enable meaningful lives for everyone.

On Friday night, the Anti Poverty Week trivia night will be held at Wodonga Tennis Centre.

‘This was very successful last year,” Mr Bedford said.

“Hosted by Rural Housing Network Lim-ited, it raised funds for a number of local wel-fare agencies, while providing a fun night out for participants.

“We are sure that it will be very popular

Helping give gift of sight WODONGA optometrist, Kelly Gibbons of Wodonga Eyecare is joining the World Sight Day Challenge during October to help give the gift of vision to people in develop-ing countries.

On World Sight Day, October 13, Kelly donated her eye examination fees to help provide eye exams and glasses to children in developing countries who can’t see well enough to learn at school, as well as adults who don’t see well enough to provide for their families.

For the month Wodonga Eyecare will also run a competition to guess the number of lollies in the jar for a gold coin donation with the winner receiving the jar full of lol-lies.

Optometry Giving Sight, the organiser of the World Sight Day Challenge, funds programs that provide eye exams and glasses, trains local eye care professionals and develops vision centres that deliver long-term vision care to people in desper-ate need.

There are 670 million people who are blind or vision impaired simply because they don’t have access to an eye examina-tion and glasses.

“I have supported Optometry Giving Sight for four years and am proud to donate to such a worthwhile cause,” Kelly said.

“It’s easy for us to take good vision for granted so taking the World Sight Day Challenge is a great way to raise funds to help people who don’t have access to even basic vision care.”

Donations will enable Optometry Giv-ing Sight to fund more sustainable pro-grams that provide eye exams and glasses to millions of people in need.

Raised funds will be directed to proj-ects in 16 countries in Latin America, Af-rica, Asia and Indigenous Australia.

Just $5 can provide an eye examina-tion and a pair of glasses for someone in a developing country.

The Wodonga Eyecare team are also inviting their clients to make a donation at the practice throughout October.

Optometry Giving Sight guarantees that 85 per cent of all funds raised by optom-etrists and their patients go directly to pro-grams that give sight to those most in need.

SeNiorSTImESRiverwood to hold open day

JUDITH and Michael Presnell play bowls, organise community events and like to travel.

They are just two of the residents making the most of the lifestyle on offer at retirement community Riverwood in West Albury.

And that lifestyle will be on display on Friday, October 21, from 10am-3pm when the Lend Lease community opens its doors to the public as part of a village-wide open day.

Judith and Michael have lived at Riverwood for more than four years – and the two couldn’t be happier.

“Michael and I have taken up a number of new hobbies and activi-ties since moving to the village –Riverwood offers a great variety of recreational facilities and Michael and I particularly enjoy playing bowls,” Judith said.

“I’m also a member of the village’s social committee which keeps me busy organising a range of events. The village has many functions including a twice weekly happy hour which is a great way to catch up with other residents.”

Judith and Michael are just two of many retirees across Aus-tralia who are doing just as much – if not more – than ever before.

“When we made the decision to move to a retirement community we looked at a number of villages but the homes at Riverwood are

spacious and well-appointed and we fell in love with the village’s location,” Judith said.

“We also really like fact that we can go away on holidays without having to worry about security and who will look after the house.”

Located on Padman Drive, visi-tors to Riverwood can now view a limited number of upgraded two bedroom units which are available for sale.

“As part of the open day we will be having a sausage sizzle, a jazz

band, giveaways and village tours,” said Anne Jack from Riverwood.

“We’re certainly looking for-ward to introducing our wonderful village to the wider community and we’re extending the invitation to anyone who would like to come.

“If you’ve been curious about retirement living, why not come along to the open day and see first hand what’s on offer.”

For more information, and to RSVP to attend, please call Anne on 0467 807 202.

REGULARS: Stan McClounan, Robyn Weaver, June Hall, Barbara Leddin, Mavis Stokes and Judith Presnell are all regulars on the bowling green at Riverwood.

Fashion fillies toglam up, showing

their best style By BERNAdETTE cANNIZZAROIT is without doubt that spring racing is as much about fashion as it is about the horses.

Each year, women step out in their finest to showcase their ability to piece together an outfit that suggests they are in the know of the latest fashion trends.

Seasonal colour palettes flutter across the greens and women are known to stare at each other, commenting on the dashing or the di-saster of individual outfits.

Make sure you are one of the successes and not a disaster.

This year, fashionistas can expect to see strong, vibrant colour palettes with matching accessories.

The clutch is the accessory must-have with your outfit and hat-inators are set to be the headpiece of the season.

Black and White is still fashionable, par-ticularly if the fabric is patterned.

This includes either polka dots or stripes. Patterns can be mix and matched this year,

but be clever about how you add this to your outfit.

Remember, spring racing gives women the opportunity to dress like a lady, and while some women believe this means showcasing as much of the body as humanly possible, this re-ally should not be the case.

Consider the length of the dress and the amount of exposure of your legs and cleavage.

All in all, you don’t have to pay a million dollars to attract admiring looks.

Whatever it is you decide to wear on the day, wear it with pride.

It’s your day to shine in your best, so frock up and have fun!

Spring adds to club’s reputationBY BERNAdETTE cANNIZZAROLADIES and gentlemen, it’s spring racing carnival time and the Albury Racing Club is gearing up to bring you another year of great racing, spring fashion and loads of fun.

The carnival kicked off this month on Saturday, October 8 with Oktoberfest, followed by Cox Plate day on October 22.

The race that stops the nation, the Melbourne Cup, is on Novem-ber 1 and locals will again have the opportunity to enjoy themselves at the Albury Racing Club.

“Last year was the first year we held a Melbourne Cup meet, with just under 3000 people attending,” chief executive of Albury Racing Club John Miller said.

“It will definitely develop into the second most important meet-ing of the year behind Albury Gold Cup in years to come.”

Statistics confirm the Albury spring carnival is growing each year and there seems to be a grow-ing interest, particularly with the introduction of Melbourne Cup day and Oaks Day, both of which have

created a strong carnival of events in Albury.

“We have a well established fashions on the field on Oaks Day,” Mr Miller said.

“We have over 600 ladies booked into the lunches on this day, so it makes sense to target the fashion angle.

“Also, the Thursday Oaks Day meeting (November 3), has full TAB status and a greater prize money.”

Attracting punters and fash-ionistas, the Albury Racing Club

continues to provide better service and facilities.

“We constantly try and improve customer facilities and our hospi-tality services at all meetings,” Mr Miller said.

“One of the things that came out of last year with the big crowd was a need to have some more screens and audio services for the Flemington races.

“We have installed new LCD screens on course and will also have a giant 12m screen set up in the beer garden so people can be a

part of all the Flemington action.“We also have music in the beer

garden between races and we ex-tended our hospitality options with the Melbourne cup lunch a sell out last year.

“We now have a barbecue mar-quee package available for small groups of 20 plus so they can enjoy their own private marquee under the shade of the elm trees.”

Take on bookies with confidence“ I have got to learn how to place a bet for next year’s racing carnival ”

By BERNAdETTE cANNIZZAROPLACING a bet can be exciting, par-ticularly if you are the type who does not often punt.

The environment is pumping with adrenalin.

Swooped in the midst of fashion and flutter you gather your money and head to the betting area, only to find you are betting on the name that grabs your attention or your lucky number!

‘Truly’, you sigh, ‘I have got to learn how to place a bet for next year’s racing carnival.’

Sound familiar?Would you like to understand a

basic form guide and be confident to place a bet this season? Here it is!

The basic racing form guide:The (No.) simply represents the

horse’s number in the race.The (Last 6) simply represents

where the horse finished in its last 6 starts.

The (Br) represents the barrier that each horse starts from.

The (Jockey) is the horse’s rider.The (Wgt) is simply the weight

which the horse will carry in the race.The (Form). Here you will see

a multitude of different letters, but what do they all mean?

T - Means that the horse has won before at this same track.

C - Means that the horse has won before at this same race distance and at this same track.

D - Means that the horse has won before at this same race distance, but the win was at a different track.

W - Means that the horse has won a race on a track rated SLOW or HEAVY.

B - Means that the horse started favorite at it’s last start, but it did not win.

H - Means that the horse is trained on this same track.

N - Means that the horse has won a race before at a night race meeting.

X - Means that the horse has had a spell, which means the horse has not started in a race for three months or more.

F - Means that the horse has fell in a race.

P - Means that the horse was pulled up by a jockey in a race.

L - Means that the horses jockey fell off the horse in a race.

The (career) simply represents the total number of starts the horse has had and where the horse fin-ished, 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

The (trainer) is the name of the horse’s trainer.

And placing a bet on a horse race is just as simple.

The most confusing part of horse racing for all beginners is working out what all the different betting types actually mean.

So here are all of the most popu-lar betting types simply explained.

Win bet: Your selection must win for you to collect.

Place bet: Your selection must place (1st, 2nd or 3rd) for you to col-lect.

Each way bet: Your selection can either win or place for you to collect.

Quinella: Your selections must finish in the first two placings in any order e.g. (1st ,2nd) or (2nd, 1st).

Box quinella: Taking multiple box selections for example (1, 2, 3 and 4) and if any of these selections finish in the first two race placings, then you will collect e.g. (1, 2) or (2, 3) or (4, 1) etc.

Exacta: Like a quinella, however your selections must finish in an exact (1st and 2nd) order for you to collect. Generally this bet type pays more than a quinella, because the odds of you winning are actually less.

Trifecta: Your selections must finish in the exact order (1st, 2nd and 3rd) for you to collect.

Multiple trifecta: Basically, this is a way of enhancing your chances

of winning by playing more possible winning sequences. For example: You choose a horse to win, which is your banker (1) and this horse must win and then you choose your horses e.g. (2 and 3) on the second line, which means that either of these horses need to be placed second and then on the third line you once again have your horses e.g. (2 and 3) and again either of these horses must place third. So your winning se-quences for you to collect would be either (1/2/3) or (1/3/2).

Box trifecta: You are boxing your trifecta and increasing your number of winning sequences. For example if you box the numbers (1, 2 and 3) you can collect if the result is (1, 2 and 3) or (1, 3 and 2) or (2,1 amd 3) or (2, 3 and 1) or (3, 2 and 1) or (3, 1 and 2).

First four: Picking the first four placings in order (1, 2, 3 and 4). This bet type although very tough to pick correctly, will pay a small fortune if do you select it correctly, for example in a race like the Melbourne Cup.

Double/Extra Double: Picking the exact winner of two different nominated races.

Treble: Picking the exact winner of three different nominated races.

Quadrella: Picking the exact winner of four different nominated races.

Have fun, but stay in control

GETTING glammed up is one of the attrac-tions of race day.

Both men and women pull out their fin-ery for a day at the races, adding to the colour and atmosphere of the occasion.

Enjoying the day, whether it be in a cor-porate marquee or just sitting on the lawns soaking up sunshine, is having a glass or two of bubbly (or whatever takes your fancy).

But beware having too much of your fa-vourite tipple.

There is nothing more degrading than to see a young lady dressed in her finery, who finished the day in a total state of disrepair.

We have all seen it.The beautiful young lady now in bare feet

or damaged stockings, high heels in hand staggering around and looking extremely second hand.

Or a young man whose suit is astray and shirt hanging out as he makes a fool of him-self.

Go on, enjoy yourself – but don’t finish the day making a spectacle of yourself.

Day that won’t break the bank

BY BERNAdETTE cANNIZZAROMORE people are discovering the affordability of a great day out at country race meetings, according to Club Manager at Wodonga Turf Club, Mr Bradley Thomas.

“Country race meetings provide entertainment for people of all ages in a relaxing, family-friendly envi-ronment,” he said.

“Patrons experience the live racing action and thunder of hooves up close, whether in a high quality corporate package or a BYO family picnic on the lawn.

“Last year’s Melbourne Cup day meeting was a great introduction for Wodonga.”

“We had numerous families en-joying our spacious lawn area and plenty of first time racegoers.

“People who experience an en-joyable day at the races in Wodon-ga will in turn attend other events at the club and hopefully become passionate members of this local club.”

The entry price of $15, or $12 for pensioners also covers much more than the live action, with free

children’s activities, live music and excellent facilities, all adding to the family fun at race meets.

Mr Thomas said that on Mel-bourne Cup day, Wodonga will have a big screen on the front lawn which will telecast all the Mel-bourne races and become the dance party zone later in the day.

“People attending Melbourne Cup Day races in Wodonga can also enter the 2AY trip for New York at the live broadcast on course from 1pm,” he said.

“Also, patrons attending the

races that day can pick up a free pass to the Wodonga race meeting on Sunday, November 6.”

Just as the club has its sights set on providing an excellent day out for their patrons, it also aims to provide opportunities for upcom-ing jockeys.

“We’ll have several apprentice jockeys riding in each race, with many of these men and women to become the next star jockeys of the sport,” Mr Thomas said.

And of course, there is the Fashions on the Field!

“We have Wodonga Beauty Room Fashions on the Field, with five categories including Best Dressed Lady, Best Dressed Gent, Best Hat, Best Dressed Secondary Student and Best Dressed Primary Student,” Mr Thomas said.

“People can enter at the front gate by 1.30pm.”

Also, if you are one of the many who enjoy a few glasses of bubbly, but not the long wait for a taxi, you will be happy to know the club is of-fering a free bus service, with times in the club’s brochure.

How to achieve that fresher look

Cosmetic Nurse Alex Pike has seen an increase in women wanting Botox for special occasions such as the Albury Oaks Day ladies luncheon.

By BERNAdETTE cANNIZZAROIF you thought Oaks Day was about fashion and hair, then you may be intrigued to know that this event has some women dieting, hiring personal train-ers, and starting cosmetic pro-cedures such as fillers or Botox.

The who’s who of local women are preparing to step out with new hair dos, dresses, shoes and fresher, “uplifted” faces, all in the name of looking fabulous for the Oaks Day ladies luncheon on November 3.

Alex Pike has been a Cos-metic Nurse Therapist since 2004.

Throughout this time she has seen an increase in ladies wanting to look their best for special occasions.

“The phone is running hot with appointments leading up to Oaks Day,” she said.

“I encourage ladies to have treatment at least three weeks before an event.

“There is a slight chance of bruising and I like to make sure women look their best.”

“We usually prescribe Botox for the upper face.

“The usual concerns for women are frown lines and crows feet. It gives our clients a fresher look.”

One Botox procedure usu-ally lasts up to four months and costs from $300 per area.

“We are a unique clinic,” Alex said.

“We only offer injectables. “Its a medical procedure, its

a prescribed procedure.“A doctor should be on the

premises – the first consulta-tion is with our doctor.”

Botox has been used for 30 years and was originally used for illnesses such as cerebral palsy.

The cosmetic dosage is very small compared to the medical dosage and there has been a lot of medical research around the effects and benefits of Botox.

A handy website for people interested in the treatment is www.wrinkles.com.au.

The injection process takes 10 minutes and the risks are generally low such as a slight chance of bruising around the injected area.

So, why are women fussing and spending money on such an event?

“Oaks Day is a huge day for ladies in Albury,” Alex said.

“Every woman wants to look their best and Botox gives them that lift, a face with a fresher look.”

Tannned look will getadmiring glances, but

don’t botch the jobBy BERNAdETTE cANNIZZAROTHERE’S nothing better than a good tan, and nothing worse than a DIY job gone wrong.

Here is how to get the perfect result.

Firstly, choose a tan that is slightly darker than your skin.

There is nothing nice about orange legs on a white torso.

Before purchasing your product choose from either a light, medium or dark tan.

As an example, fair skin should choose a light co-loured tan. Olive skin can choose a medium colour.

Exfoliate your body the night before applying your tan.

“Many people get the exfoliant part wrong,” says beauty therapist Maria Rob-ins.

“They do it in the shower, while having a shower.

“The correct way to ex-foliate is to apply a small amount of water to the body and scrub and exfoliate one limb at a time.

“You should be exfoliat-ing dry skin, not wet skin as too much water dilutes the scrub and it’s not as effec-tive.”

Do one application at a time.

Many people lather themselves in the tan, hop-ing to create a darker tan.

This is not a good look.

Many times your body can end up with multiple tones, otherwise known as streaks.

If you desire a darker tan, simply do a seperate applica-tion the day after.

“People forget to skim over the elbows, knees and ankles,” Ms Robins said.

“These areas are usually the parts that go darker than the rest due to being drier than the rest of your body.

“Moisturising these ar-eas prior to applying your tan will make sure they don’t darken.

“ You can use a sorbelene cream or any type of mois-turiser”.

Ms Robins says a tanning mousse is the easiest of all tanning products to apply at home.

“The texture is finer and it is easier to use,” she said.

Apple tart has never tasted like this! The secret is a delicious chocolate pastry that’s easy to patch if necessary when

lining the tart tin. For the filling don’t be afraid to cheat

and use ready-bought pie apple as the Aus-tralian quality is good. However fresh and slightly tart Granny Smith Apple provides a lively contrast to this fabulous pastry.

If you are making a pie or tart in a flan tin with a loose base, it’s best to put the pre-pared tart on a tray…… as who hasn’t almost

pushed up the raw or cooked tart or pie and almost lost it before baking? I’ve been guilty of this just once.

I know I’m always sifting icing sugar over cakes and desserts. Generally it’s be-cause I don’t want to add any more kilo-joules! However, if you prefer a decadent apple tart, top it with an easy chocolate glaze made by gently melting 125g chopped dark chocolate (70%) with half a cup cream then allowing mixture to cool until warm before pouring over the tart. Then the glaze sets lightly when cold.

CHOC-APPLE TART (Serves 8)

PAUL’S WINE PICkThis recipe sounds naughty, but I am sure

the apples are good for you! Chill down and enjoy a half bottle of Morris Liqueur Classic Tokay with the sweet – a fresh and luscious drop, and not too heavy – but not too much, though!

FooDGOSSwiTh BARB LOWERY

Try our luxurious apple tart

YOU WILL NEED:1/4 cup sultanas2 tblspns tokay (topaque) or Muscat2 tblspns caster sugar (approx)Pastry100g dark 70% chocolate, chopped 185g unsalted butter, chopped1 cup plain flour1 cup self-raising flourpinch salt2 tblspns caster sugar1 egg yolk, beatenapprox 2 tspns iced water

METHOD:Filling – peel, quarter and

core apples. Slice apples thickly into a microwave-safe bowl and add sultanas and tokay. Cover and microwave until apples are tender and begin to break down,

but still have chunky pieces. Gently stir in the sugar and leave apples to cool.

Pastry – Melt the chocolate and leave to cool. Beat butter until soft and gradually beat in the sugar and chocolate until well-mixed. Stir in the sifted flour and salt and add the combined egg yolk and water to make a soft pliable dough. Turn dough out onto a clean smooth surface and knead only until smooth. Pat dough into a disc and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes. Grease a 23cm fluted tart tin and line the base with a circle of baking paper.

Preheat the oven to 190 C.Roll out two thirds of the

pastry to 4mm thickness and line the prepared tin, bringing

pastry up the sides of the tin. Trim away excess pastry.

Spoon cold apple filling into pastry shell. Roll out remaining pastry and cover the filling, pinching edges to secure them. Prick top of pastry well using a fork.

Bake for about 35 minutes, or until pastry is cooked through.

Leave tart to cool in the tin then remove carefully. Dust with Icing sugar or spread with a chocolate glaze as suggested.

T his has been the most beautifully exhuberant spring along the Bor-der. Gardens have been full of co-

lour, and displaying lots of growth. We are also enjoying the re-appearance of new foliage on deciduous plants, which is fresh and exciting to watch develop! Young leaves are generally a lighter shade of green than the mature speci-men.

Most gardeners have to exercise

self-discipline at this time of the year if visiting nurseries. We immediately lose sight of any design we are trying to create when we see some attractive flowering plant and can think of “just the spot’” for it! We never think of its eventual size.

We really need to understand what sort of gardener we are and what sort of garden we want to create, and this is especially important if the amount of time available to spend in the garden is an issue.

Working within a design saves so much time, effort and money. You know exactly what is needed and the amount of maintenance that will be re-quired. But if you are a plants-man and want one of everything, the garden be-comes far more time consuming.

A good plants-man of course, or-ganises the garden so flowers are ap-pearing at all times of the year and they complement each other. He knows the size of any new plant, whether they are evergreen or deciduous, how much shade will be caste as they mature, and the colour of the flowers, as well as the conditions they require such as sun or shade, the type of soil, and so on.

We are lucky enough to live in a cli-mate which allows us to garden nearly every day of the year. Plants from many different parts of the world thrive here, along with many superb Australian natives. Some homework is necessary if you want to take advantage of all those available to us, so you can work towards establishing the sort of garden you want.

GarDeNGURUwiTh PRUE SMITH

GARDEN TASkS:

✓ If you are looking for a living evergreen groundcover, there is a new range of African Cape Daisies on the market. They are the Osteospermum “Springstar” range, which only grow about 18cm high and have a spread of about 25cm. Some of the daisies still have that lovely navy centre, but all have different coloured petals – yellow, terracotta and cream splashed with pink amongst them. Osteospermums like the sun and don’t need much water.

✓ You might like to try to improve your pumpkin crop by hand fertilising. Pick the male flower – the one with lots of pollen – and brush it right across the female flower several times. The female flower is identified by the rounded bit at the base.

✓ Tomatoes seem to respond to an application of blood and bone or dynamic lifter. Follow the directions on the package carefully. Too much is worse than not enough. Over-feeding with any fertiliser can result in a plants’ death.

Leaving the Piedmont region, the Child Bride and I recently wound our way north to Lake

Orta, the least “touristy” of the larger Italian Lakes, and a favoured holiday haunt for locals. Then, a day or two at Lake Maggiore followed with sensational scenery and jaw dropping mountains, before we headed (with several million other tourists) to Lake Como.

If the Lakes had a common theme, it was beauty and history, but, alas, some parts are becoming a cross between Disneyland and the Gold Coast.

OUR QUEST?After a few weeks on the trot, I

think the CB and I were looking for some R and R, content to let a boat cart us around the various lakeside sights, but keeping up the exercise regime to offset the excess calories (not a problem for the wafer thin CB, despite the fact she fell in love with the local gelati and homemade tiramisu).

kEEPING TO THE RULESAs mentioned in a previous

column, the CB and I have a strict rule on our travels – always drink the local wine and enjoy the local dishes, no matter how challenging that may be.

Thus, there was no question of reverting back to Barolo, or to Chi-anti, for comfort or “safety”– it was time to try the wines of the Lakes region.

But it was hardly a chore ...If the Lakes are the hole in the

donut, the donut itself is made up of brilliant wine regions:

TRENTINO-ALTO ADIGE

Always a favourite, this region produces crisp and fruity white wines with a definite “Germanic” character (it is, after all, a stone’s throw from the Austrian border and its citizens just happen to be in Italy – at least for now, until the next border turf war). Riesling, Traminer and Pinot Bianco thrive in this area, along with a host of in-digenous grapes.

VENETOThere is not much room in Ven-

ice itself to grow grapes, and wet feet are not good for grapevines. But the surrounding region of Ven-ice, with a combination of broad plains and lower alpine mountains shared with its neighbour Austria, is vineyard heaven.

Veneto is home to the soave grape, the reliable red wines of Val-policella and the well known spar-kling prosecco.

Vast quantities of red wine also come from this region, but, al-though very good, they rarely com-

pete with the high quality sangio-veses of Chianti or the nebbiolos of Piedmont.

FRIULI-VENEzIAA relative newcomer in wine

terms, this region covers a vast area with coastal vineyards empha-sising red wine styles, with hilly or mountain regions the focus for the whites.

Despite its size, the quality and value for money of its products makes this area one of Italy’s top two white wine regions. There are lots of local grapes not seen else-where, of which the well known verduzzo was my favourite.

LET’S NOT FORGET.....Two other regional wines com-

mand comment – the first is Fran-ciacorta, a classic-method spar-kling wine made from a blend of chardonnay and other white variet-ies – very stylish and a wine I prefer to prosecco.

And finally, worth a mention is

Valtellina “Inferno” which was rec-ommended to me by the locals but which (because of its name) I could not bring myself to try. Poor fool me. Later research revealed that it was in fact straight nebbiolo, and probably the best example of this grape outside of Piedmont. “Infer-no” turned out to be nothing more than a region and not (as I had suspected) a chilli pepper infused beverage! I will be looking for the chance to give it a go another day.

HOME, JAMESWhat an adventure the past

month has been! Bliss in the City of Lights (Paris), pain in Spain (Camino Trail), culture and cuisine in Barcelona, beauty Bra Cheese and Barolo in Piedmont, and the stunning vistas of the Italian Lakes.

On each day I have counted my blessings, but, alas, it is time to head back to the grindstone ...

Step back in time with photo display

By BLAIR THOMSONAN intriguing exhibition will officially open at Creators Artspace on the Lincoln Cause-way tonight (Friday).

Border photographer Paul Temple has created close to 30 images using photo-graphic techniques from the 1800s.

Featuring subjects in period dress, the photos have the appearance of age.

“I’ve been interested in using alternative processes for photography and a while ago I went down to the North East Muzzle Loaders and they have weekends where they use guns and get dressed up in period costumes,” Mr Temple said.

“I thought it would be good to try the old techniques that were historically motivated as well.

“I used Van Dyke printing and the latest thing I’ve used is tintype from the 1850s.”

Tintype is a technique that uses a plate in a wooden camera, while Van Dyke printing is an old way of processing film negatives.

“The results are mixed,” Mr Temple ad-mits.

“The photos aren’t what you would call perfect but they are their own little pieces of art because you can’t reproduce it like you could with a negative or computer file.

“All the little flaws are part of the beauty of the photos.

“The images look like they could have been found in an attic or something.”

Mr Temple, president of the Wodonga Al-bury Camera Club, said he tried to exhibit his solo work once a year.

“At the moment I’ve got something at the Wangaratta Performing Arts Centre with an-

other photographer, but if you try to do too many exhibitions you go crazy,” he said with a laugh.

“This show also has some shots from the Beechworth Historical Re-enactment Group during the Ned Kelly weekend and also fea-tures another group.

“So it should be a good exhibition.”Days of Black Powder shows at Creators

Artspace until October 23.

NEW EXHIBITION: Paul Temple will launch Days of Black Powder at 6pm tonight (Friday) at

Take the tissues,it’s a tearjerker

By BLAIR THOMSONTHE Albury Wodonga Theatre Com-pany has launched it’s latest produc-tion, Miss Saigon, at the Albury En-tertainment Centre.

The musical is a heart-wrenching tale set during the Vietnam War, tell-ing the story of a doomed romance between an American GI and a Viet-namese bar girl.

Show director and theatre com-pany president Joseph Thomsen spoke to NewsWeekly prior to last night’s (Thursday) opening perfor-mance about the eleventh-longest running musical in Broadway his-tory.

“I think one of the most com-pelling things about Miss Saigon is the fact that it’s such an emotional show,” he said.

“For people that like to go out for a night and experience and feel something, that’s exactly what this show is about from start to finish.

“You won’t go to Miss Saigon and not be affected.

“You’ll probably need a box of tissues by the end of it.”

The local production has been about a year in the making with the last 3½ months spent in rehearsals.

One of the highlights is a large set that took several days and many workers to erect.

“I think people are going to be pleasantly happy and surprised with what they get on stage,” Mr Thom-sen said.

“We’re trying to surprise people with a helicopter ... it’s one of those things where people wonder what they’re going to get with the helicop-ter in Miss Saigon, if it’s going to be real, if it’s going to be an image, if it’s going to be flat and drop out of the ceiling, or something else.

“So that’s one of those little sur-prises.

“There is a real helicopter and people get into it and it takes off.”

Preparing Miss Saigon for it’s run of eight shows involved tireless work from many people.

The production features about 40 people in the cast, 18 in the or-chestra, a crew of around 20 people

and a production team of about eight.

“A lot of the actors have had to travel some distance for the show,” Mr Thomsen said.

“It’s quite amazing to have people from Wagga, Beechworth, Canberra and Chiltern and other surrounding areas and great to know that people are keen to come from such places to be involved.

“I think in regional areas there are always people that travel for shows, because you often need someone to sing or play a particular character, but we’ve had a few more people that have had to travel quite a long distance.”

The musical is the Albury

Wodonga Theatre Company’s big-gest production for the year, follow-ing on from Blackadder 2 and You Can’t Stop the Beat, a compilation of popular songs from movie musicals.

“We don’t yet know what our next musical will be,” Mr Thomsen said.

“We’ll probably do a sequel to the very popular Can’t Stop the Beat with new songs next year and we’re finalising the musical still.

“People have been buying tickets to Miss Saigon and with a bit of luck, I’ve got a feeling we’ll go quite well with it.”

Miss Saigon shows October 13, 14, 15 and 20, 21 and 22 with mati-nee shows at 1.30pm each Saturday.

ON paper, Real Steel shouldn’t work.

A story of a washed up, drop-kick boxer who fights robots with his newly reunited son?

Sounds a bit cheesy, doesn’t it.But somehow, everything has

fallen into place to make a highly engaging movie; great cast, inter-esting story and realistic CGI.

Set in the not-too-distant fu-ture, Hugh Jackman stars as the gruff Charlie Kenton, a former could-have-been-but-never-was fighter who fights scrappy old ro-bots at county fairs and lawless battlegrounds for cash.

When his machine gets de-stroyed, racking up debts in the process, he’s in desperate need for cash.

When a former lover dies, leav-ing behind his son, Jackman sees an opportunity to cash in by “sell-ing” the boy to his relatives, but he must take custody of him for a few weeks.

While he’s reluctant to even acknowledge the boy, played by

Dakota Goyo, they eventually band together and realise they make a great partnership in the robot fight-ing scene, complete with a new ma-chine or two.

Jackman has the old world boxing skills, while Goyo has the video game prowess to skillfully command the bot, rescued from an electronic graveyard, towards grinding victories.

Watching the futuristic ma-chines in action is stunning while the modern architecture and stadi-ums are inspiring.

There’s something quite excit-ing about seeing a fighter get its head knocked off and oil gush onto the canvas as sparks fly.

While the film is set a decade or two in the future, the producers have struck the right balance be-tween old and new.

Gadgets and new technology make an appearance but the film makers have wisely ensured that they don’t dominate the film, in-stead focusing on the story and emotions of the lead characters.

BANG!: Elizabeth Flynn plays Kim in the Albury Wodonga Theatre Company’s production of Miss Saigon. Picture: BLAIR THOMSON.

A REVIEW of some market indicators shows that a lot has changed in the past decade.

In the June quarter this year the median Melbourne house price was $590,000, which is 103 per cent higher than the $291,000 re-corded in the June quarter 2001.

A decade ago the stamp duty payable was $13,120, which is 132 per cent less than the $30,470 that was payable on the median house if purchased in the June quarter this year.

Unlike a decade ago, first home buyers can now benefit from a 20 per cent reduction on this bill for most homes.

However the First Home Owner’s Grant was valued at $7000 in 2001 and is still val-ued at $7000.

According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, the average home loan to a non-first home buyer was $291,200 in June this year, 99 per cent more than the $146,500 re-corded in June 2001.

The median price of a house in Toorak was $2,175,000 in the June quarter this year, 105 per cent higher than the $1,062,500 in the June quarter a decade ago.

In more affordable Broadmeadows the

median was $370,500 in this year’s June quarter, a substantial 219 per cent higher than the $116,000 in the June quarter 2001.

This is indicative of a trend that has seen the more affordable suburbs increase in val-ue more rapidly.

And finally, in the City of Ballarat the median house price has increased by 122 per cent from $130,000 a decade ago to $288,500 in the most recent June quarter.

HoUSeANDlaND | THE ONLY VIEW THAT MATTERS

Family firm named NSW best2 out of 3 for husband, wife

BORDER builders Jim and Julie Carroll won the presti-gious New South Wales Fran-chisee of the Year 2011 Award at the annual Hotondo Homes conference held in Rotorua, New Zealand.

This is the second time that they have won this award in three years.

“We have been a Hotondo Homes franchise for 11 years, and winning this award twice in the last three years is fan-tastic and a huge honour,” Mr Carroll said when accepting the award.

Mrs Carroll said they were very proud of their achieve-ments.

“It is a joint effort,” she said.

“We have fantastic staff, two display homes with a third due to open in De-cember, and couldn’t have achieved this award without the support from our local community.”

The New South Wales Franchisee of the Year Award is given to a builder who has displayed outstanding busi-ness practises, built top quali-ty homes, and has exceptional customer service.

“Builders who win state franchisee of the year awards encapsulate what Hotondo

Homes is all about – a profes-sional builder building quality homes,” Mr Renwick, Man-aging Director of Hotondo Homes, said.

“Jim, Julie and their team are dedicated to growing their business and have in-spired other builders within the franchise with their pro-fessionalism, market share growth and high customer satisfaction rating.

“We are proud of what they have achieved in the Al-bury region, and this award couldn’t go do a more deserv-ing franchise.”

Jim and Julie have built a reputation as a reliable and highly regarded builder in the Albury and surrounding ar-eas.

They are also involved in supporting the local commu-nity, not only through using local trades and services, but also through continued sup-port of local events.

If you would like to speak to your local award winning builder, contact Jim, Julie and their professional team on 6043 1925.

You can also visit their display homes located at Fair-way Gardens Estate, Thur-goona, and Centaur Park Es-tate, Lavington. WINNERS: Jim and Julie Carroll with their certificate for being named Hotondo’s NSW franchisee of the year.

ALBURY Wodonga Moun-tain Bikers in conjunction with Pushy’s Bike Ware-house held their annual “Day On The Can” downhill race on Sunday at Nail Can Hill.

In all 46 riders tackled the daunting course with good track conditions de-spite the rain experienced leading up to the event.

Race organsier, Adam White said it was a good race for beginners to try the sport with the majority of the track

reasonably easy to roll down but he said it also presented a challenge when the pace was picked up testing the most skilled riders.

Riders ranged in age from Oskar White, 10, to over 50 Tony Nicholson.

Unfortunately for Nich-olson mechanical issues ended his campaign on the first practice run but young White certainly showed the flair he has already become known for.

Entrants travelled from as far afield as Healesville and Melbourne with the in-tention of using this race as a warm up for the upcoming Victorian downhill Series.

The fastest time this year was a 2min 29.4 second run recorded by Neil Van Der Ploeg, more commonly known for his cross country riding.

Fastest woman down was local cross country rider Lisa Smallbone.

McGrory has crowd spellbound

So close to podium for Jones team

YOU could have heard a penny drop when Olympian Scott Mc-Grory told of the despair of losing a child just weeks out from the 2000 Sydney Olympics.

Guests at Lavington Panthers cycling club gala dinner Saturday night were spellbound by the enig-matic speaker who shared his life story, the ups and downs and the strength required to overcome the most painful of experiences.

More than a tear was shed as McGrory recounted his Olympic campaign and the weeks of turmoil even up to the very day of his gold medal victory.

He recalled apologising un-der his breath to team-mate, Brett Aitken on the morning of the race, thinking he’d not done enough to take the pair across the line to vic-tory.

But the results are now history and the two rose to the challenge to take their place among cycling’s elite.

During the gala dinner many items were auctioned, the crowd were entertained by auctioneer, Scott Andrews and much-needed funds were raised for the club.

An Anna Meares signed skin suit was purchased for a healthy sum, as was an Albury Wodonga Cycling club jersey signed by Cadel Evans and many other items that were on offer.

Event co-ordinator, Deb North

said the objectives set out prior to the night were all achieved.

“We had some very clear objec-tives,” Mrs North said.

“First off to raise some money to upgrade the track, secondly to raise the profile of the club, thirdly

to open doors and build ongoing relationships and finally to attract new members in whatever form, whether they want to ride or come along in a social sense.

“We’re absolutely chuffed!”Mrs North said the night raised

around $8000 which would help in upgrading facilities at the Pearsall Street velodrome.

She said the club was very pleased with the support shown by Albury Council with deputy mayor, Neville Hull in attendance and con-

sidered the night to be a huge suc-cess.

“We now have a great relation-ship with AlburyCity,” she said.

“The night was a huge boost in the profile of the club, which will only grow from here.”

THE Border’s Brad Jones Racing team rose to the challenge of the infamous Mount Panorama circuit on the weekend to take a fifth place finish with the Team BOC Com-modore, testament to their steely resolve in a tough sport.

The combination of Jason Bright, ably assisted by Andrew Jones and the wiley experience of the Jones team provided a recipe for success.

But as Bright has stated on many occasions this season, quali-

fying isn’t currently the team’s forte and the weekend returned a similar scenario, although conditions lead-ing up to the race were hampered by changeable weather affecting all teams.

Starting Sunday’s race buried deep in the grid was always going to require a huge performance to make the podium, a feat they al-most achieved.

An engine misfire early in the race contributed to contact with a competitor’s car almost ending the

Albury team’s mountainous effort.After being held up half way

through the race during a safety car period the tables were turned and a stroke of luck saw Bright leap frog many of the front runners to sit in third position with less than 30 laps remaining.

“We were definitely down on straight line speed in the race but other than that the car felt pretty good,” Bright said.

“Our strategy all went quite well, we were a little bit caught out

a couple of times during the safety cars which meant we didn’t work our way towards the front like we should have but the last safety car couldn’t have worked better.”

And although Bright was un-able to hold off a fast charging Craig Lowndes with a handful of laps remaining he considered he had the pace to match it with Mark (Frosty) Winterbottom.

“I knew Lowndes was coming and knew he had plenty of speed and I didn’t really want to get held

up in a battle with him because Frosty was lurking not far behind him,” Bright said.

“I tried pretty hard to hold Frosty behind and ended up run-ning wide on the second last lap and he got through.”

Co-driver, Jones said while the car lacked straight line speed it felt solid under brakes.

“It was good fun, our car was really good down into Forest El-bow, I passed a lot of cars down there,” he said.

YOUR BEST BODY12 WEEK CHALLENGE

Proudly Supported by:

WEEK SIXFOOD GLORIOUS FOOD…

Wodonga, VIC – We have reached the half-way point in the challenge already. In that time we have seen results in body composition and fi tness levels.

One of the important things to remember about any program that sets out to help people to change their body is that it is more than sim-ply exercise, exercise and exercise. Nutrition

plays an equally if not more important role in

the journey towards better health and body

composition.

So as the weekly group fi tness sessions

continue to challenge the participants with the

sessions getting a little tougher each week,

this week also saw us deliver the third in a se-

ries of nutritional seminars as part of the Your

Best Body Challenge.

The seminar was aimed at not only dis-

cussing what we should eat but also the best

time to eat certain foods. The aim was to help

attendees see food in a different way and har-

ness the power of the foods to increase their

results.

We have seen the results so far and now

eagerly await the next six weeks.

The Brooks’ boat, Rhythum is a 21 foot Child-splay marine hull powered by a 510 cubic inch blown Chevy motor running on alcohol fuel.

The boat develops around 1700-1800 horsepower and is capable of speeds over 140 miles per hour.

Rhythum will be driven by Cameron Brooks who’s gener-ally more comfortable behind the wheel of a drag car.

He said in comparison to drag cars he’s driven, the boat was extremely difficult to drive.

“It’s the best and fastest in Australia,” Brooks said.

“Up until last year it won all the major races for circuit boats around Australia.

“I was used to quarter mile drags and the slowest we’d go was around 210mph.

“This thing, I drove it the other day and it felt at least as hard, if not harder to drive at 140 than doing 220 (in a car).

“I had more trouble driv-ing this than driving the car, it just accelerates, it doesn’t slow down!”

Cleaver said he would be in attendance from 7am on Saturday morning for those interested in running the speed class.

Boats will require current registration and some driver safety equipment.

A safety levy is also pay-able to compete.

Spectator entry to the event will be by gold coin do-nation with all proceeds going to the Bonegilla Fire Brigade.

Racing is expected to be-gin around 10am and catering will be provided by the Lake Hume Coast Guard.

Further enquiries can be directed to Richard Cleaver on 0418 690 996.

With a full Lake Hume, the day promises to provide plenty of entertainment in a beautiful family setting.

Classic bikes povide afeast for enthusiasts

CLASSIC motorcycle enthusiasts were treated to a display of old ma-chinery during the annual Butter-ball Run on the weekend.

Bikes ranged from Harleys to Hondas, pre-war to post and every-thing in between in various stages of repair all organised by the Albury Wodonga Classic and Enthusiast Motorcycle Club.

Typical of the day was club member, Sean Crosthwaite with his pristine 1945 Harley Davidson which won best American bike for the run.

The story behind the Harley was as interesting as the bike itself and Crosthwaite was up to date with the exploits of Harley through those years of manufacture.

“It’s one of the first of the over-head valve models that Harley actu-ally manufactured,” he said.

“It’s quite a rare model in the fact that there weren’t many civilian models built in 1943, 44, 45 because of the war efforts.

“Harley Davidson were obvious-ly short of materials and all the met-als and things went into the military aspect of things.

“Harley Davidson built 88,000 motorcycles during the war period which were known as WLAs and they were purely for the military but mine is one of the civilian ones from that year.”

Crosthwaite said the bike was as original as physically possible given its age and he described it as a col-lectable classic.

“Obviously a lot of the parts aren’t available now such as pistons and rings so I’ve used a lot of after-market stuff,” he said.

“The engine’s been blue printed and balanced which couldn’t be done back in 1945.

“I’ve changed the gearing a little bit, the sprockets on the drive which

gives it more top speed and the en-gine doesn’t work as hard at those top speeds.”

And despite the bike’s spotless presentation on Saturday morning Crosthwaite said there was a lot of maintenance required to keep the Harley in that condition both aes-thetically and mechanically.

“With old bikes comes a lot of maintenance,” he said.

“They have an old set of ignition points in them and you have to keep them regularly gapped, the spark

plugs gapped and keep the oils up to them.

“Being an old type of engine they do leak a bit of oil.

“After a weekend of riding it gets quite dirty … with the older engines they have an older chain oiling sys-tem … they have a breather pipe that actually goes onto the chain and oils it as you ride along which makes a bit of a mess.”

Crosthwaite said the days of finding such classic bikes in sheds on farmer’s properties were all

but over but there were still some around and the Butterball Run pro-vided the opportunity for such old machinery to be on display as they were intended.

He said the run and the Border club also allowed like-minded en-thusiasts the chance to catch up and talk all things old and classic.

“It’s a fantastic club, the rid-ing’s a big part but so is the social aspect,” he said.

“We all get together and talk about old motorcycles.”

Hoy backs Legacy as he battles for London Olympics spotFORMER Culcairn equestrian rid-er, Andrew Hoy, has called on the community to join him in support of Legacy.

Hoy has announced he will bat-tle to qualify for the 2012 Olympics on horse, Rutherglen in memory of our fallen heroes and their families.

Legacy is a charity dedicated to

supporting Defence Force families suffering financially and socially after the death or serious injury of a spouse or parent, during or after their active service.

Hoy has been volunteering as a Legatee with London Legacy since February 2011.

“Legacy is a trusted and re-

spected organisation doing what-ever it can to enhance the lives and opportunities of the families of our deceased veterans,” Hoy said.

“I am a proud Australian and am thankful for the work of our vet-erans and would like to give back in whatever way I can.”

Alongside his work for Legacy,

Hoy is heavily focused on his riding. With the Australian Eventing

team failing to automatically quali-fy for the 2012 Olympics, Hoy must now seek to snap up one of the last 20 individual spots available.

Hoy has pinned his hopes on Rutherglen to ride him towards his fourth consecutive Olympic games.

BAD RHYTHUM: Blown Alcohol Displacement boat, Rhythum will driven by Cameron Brooks on Lake Hume on Saturday.

POWERBOAT racing will return to the Hume Boat Club at Bell-bridge this Saturday, October 15 with a club day organised for lo-cal enthusiasts to have a run.

And spectators will be treat-ed to a real spectacle with at least four Blown Alcohol Displace-ment boats in attendance, all ca-pable of over 130 miles per hour!

Race co-ordinator, Richard Cleaver said the club hoped to re-introduce powerboat racing to Lake Hume in a similar vein to times past.

“I’ve only lived in Albury for 20 years but they tell me in days gone by at Kangaroo Point and other venues on the weir pow-erboat racing was very popular,” Cleaver said.

“What we’re trying to do is have the Hume Boat Club be-come the base for powerboat racing between Melbourne, Ad-elaide and Sydney.

“We believe we have at least

four BAD, (blown alcohol dis-placement) boats coming, two from Adelaide and one from Syd-ney as well as a local boat owned by Tony Brooks.”

However the main theme of the event is to “Run what ya Brung” with the objective being to encourage local boats to get involved.

“What we’re trying to do is encourage people who have some form of performance boat, whether a family ski boat or something that they think is quite fast that might be sitting in a shed,” Cleaver said.

“The kids might have moved away, maybe they don’t get the boat out of the shed to go wake boarding or water skiing any more and they might consider getting the boat out and run around with us in the speed class.

“Our first class is up to 60mph and social in-boards or
