bendigo weekly issue 733

CRIMINALBy ANTHONY RADFORD

ONE of Bendigo’s top police prosecu-tors has made a damning assessment of the city’s courthouse, labelling it dangerous with archaic facilities.

Leading Senior Constable Da-

vid Somerton has been prosecuting criminals at the Bendigo Law Courts for almost 20 years.

In a special column in today’s Bendigo Weekly, Senior Constable Somerton said the courts were suit-able for the era they were built – 1896– but not today.

“The Bendigo Court does not have a secure way to receive persons in custody,” he said.

“An accused is removed from transportation in full view of the public.

“Court Two is the only Magis-trates’ Court that can receive persons in custody.”

Senior Constable Somerton said his security concerns also went inside the court rooms themselves.

“Court Four is a smaller chamber, situated on the Pall Mall side of the

building,” he said.“The witness box is within arm’s

length of the prosecutor. Contested cases involving serious assaults have been heard in this room.”

Senior Constable Somerton said security issues for police and other corrective service staff extended to the lack of secure facilities.

“At this point in time there are no toilet facilities for police who attend

court to perform duty as prosecutors, court security, or merely to attend to give evidence or support victims,” he said.

“There is no Prosecutor’s Room set aside for the speci� c use of police prosecutors on a day-to-day basis.

“The Bendigo Magistrates’ Court does not enjoy the same security standards as other metropolitan and regional headquarter courts, such as Geelong and Ballarat.”

‘Archaic’ law courts ‘dangerous’

BENDIGO’S Noah’s Ark was the jump-off point for not just their 40th birthday but also the launch of a new booklet, “Trans-forming children’s lives”.

“We � lled a gap,” service senior manager Val Johnson said at the birthday celebration on Tuesday.

“It was so much more than a toy library, providing the � rst early intervention services .

“Instead of a process where you ‘therapise’ the children, it became a process of ensuring families feel con� dent, so that being part of normal family experiences is the way that chil-dren learn.”

Ms Johnson joined with Noah’s Ark regional manager of Loddon Mallee Michele Todder-dell to launch the brochure and cut the birthday cake this week.

“We used to talk about in-tegration, dump the kid into a situation and walk away,” Ms Johnson said.

“Now, as the largest early intervention provider in the state, we are actively develop-ing resources and training pro-grams.

“We see the future as mov-ing more out into the com-munity, to spread the word, so these children are not just rely-ing on trained people and their

families but on the whole of the community.

“It’s important that the whole community is not afraid of dealing with people with dis-abilities.”

Ms Todderdell said � nd-ing new premises in Bendigo is high on the priority list, as the 13 staff have now outgrown the house they lease from the City of Greater Bendigo council.

“What’s important for our organisation is parent-to-parent support so we also need more space for a drop-in centre,” she said.

Sen Const Somerton said other issues included poor acoustics and a lack of proper wheelchair access, which could hamper justice.

“At Bendigo court a person who is restricted in movement does not have the same ben-e� ts of access as does an able-bodied person.”

The Bendigo Weekly � rst raised the issue of the poor courts facility in 2006, when it highlighted concerns about se-curity, overcrowding, poor dis-abled access and a lack of pri-vacy in the main courthouse.

Other issues at the time in-cluded Victorian Civil and Ad-ministrative Tribunal hearings having to be held in judges’ chambers, the judges them-selves mixing with the public before and after decisions were made, and major courts such as the Federal Magistrates’ Court having to sit in surrounding towns because of the unsuit-ability of the Bendigo building.

In May, the Weekly revealed the previous State Government rejected a plan for the redevel-opment of Bendigo’s outdated courthouse.

The Bendigo Law Associa-tion wants a new court built on the site of the former Advertiser building in Pall Mall.

Ambo site challengeBy ANTHONY RADFORD

THE focus on the contro-versy surrounding where to build the new CBD ambu-lance station has shifted to another site.

Former City of Great-er Bendigo mayor Daryl McClure lost his battle with the council and State Government over their plans to build the new sta-tion on the Uley Street car park.

Mr McClure said this week, after the Victorian Civil and Administra-tive Tribunal released its reasons for rejecting his appeal, that another site on Barnard Street was

more suitable, and free.“My understanding is

State Government paid $1.25 million to council for Uley Street,” he said.

“On top of that, the wid-ening of Uley Street will cost about $100,000.

“For the hospital to replace those parks in a new multi-storey car park on the hospital cam-pus, like they said they would, will cost an extra $1.2 million

“There is a block of land on Barnard Street, near the intersection of Don Street, that is vacant and free because it is Crown land.”

Mr McClure said the

land was larger than the Uley Street site.

“It is an old mining re-serve, and they may argue because of the mine it can’t

be used,” he said. “However, council paid

about $23,000 to � x a mine shaft at Victoria Hill recent-ly, so it’s not expensive.

“The Barnard Street land is the right size and the right shape.

“You could build a lot of hospital beds for $3 million, and the site is closer to the CBD than Uley Street.

“It has a number of traf-� c routes into the CBD.

“Why is it not being done?”

A spokesperson for Health Minister David Da-vis dismissed Mr McClure’s claims.

“The Uley Street site was determined the most appropriate site for the � fth ambulance station in the Bendigo region,” she said.

“This site was the only available site to meet all requirements for siting of an ambulance station including size, location, access and costs.

“Mr McClure’s claims in relation to car parking are incorrect, the new hospital will include a range of car parking. “The relocation of the Bendigo ambu-lance station is a critical step in the undertaking of the new hospital and will enhance ambulance services to the Bendigo community as well as facilitate the Bendigo hospi-tal redevelopment.“

Why pay for this, left, when you can get this, right, for free?

Now that’s goldBy SALLY THOMPSON

WHAT do a publican, a pho-tographer and bikers have in common?

They are all joining forces to raise money for a worthy cause.

The Goldmines Hotel, Rick Bentley Photography and the Boundary Riders are holding a family fundraising evening today in support of the Tiffany Murray Founda-tion, an organisation set up to help 22-year-old Tiffany with the costs of a vital life-saving operation.

After going through one bout of surgery to remove a brain tumour, Tiffany now needs more surgery to remove a second, previously consid-ered inoperable, tumour.

Sydney brain surgeon Charlie Teo specialises in dif-� cult operations such as Tif-fany’s, but the costs are very high, hence the formation of the Foundation.

The fundraising evening promises to be a great time for all the family.

There will be raf� es, lucky door prizes, hamburgers and sausages, photo opportunities and great entertainment.

The Goldmines Hotel is in Marong Road, just up from Spotlight. Doors open at 4pm, gold coin donation entry.

In the swingBOTH those who work hard on their handicap and those who fancy a hit-and-giggle are wel-come to take part in a fundraising day at the Belvoir Park Golf Club.

Specimen Hill Primary School is holding a Golf Day on Sunday to raise much-needed funds. Sup-ported by many Bendigo busi-nesses, the event is open to all golfers, and will kick off with free breakfast from 8.30am, hit off at 9.30am. To register, call Marie Cox on 0434 834589.

Young people invitedYOUNG people in Bendigo are invited to join an advisory group set up by City of Greater Bendigo councillor James Reade.

“Young people who get in-volved will reap the rewards,” Cr Reade said.

“They will have opportunities to build networks, gain skills and knowledge and a new apprecia-tion for their town.”

Up to 20 people aged from 12 to 25 will be chosen to take part.

To nominate, join on the yobendigo website or contact the Youth Development team at council on 5434 6092.

Smart phone launchTHE latest smart phone will be unveiled in Bendigo today.

Apple’s iPhone 4S will be launched at the Telstra store in the Marketplace from 8am.

The phone includes a faster chip, access to iCloud and 200 new software features. It also in-cludes voice recognition program Siri, which allows users to send messages, place phone calls and schedule meetings using only their voice.

Gateway to heaven

By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

GATEWAY PARK, once the � rst point of welcome for visitors coming north to Bendigo, is soon to get a much-needed makeover.

And while some of the plans came as a surprise to residents whose proper-ties border on the oddly-shaped pocket of land on the Calder Highway at Kan-garoo Flat, even those who look set to lose a little are keen to see the work begin.

Laurie and Dot Cook live in Cook’s Cottage, on the park’s north boundary.

They bought the land “dirt cheap”, Laurie said,

almost 26 years ago, when the land was sold off by the Marong council.

Bit by bit, through a couple of serious health scares in a life crowded with travel and busy schemes, the Cooks cleaned up their corner of the park, mowing, planting, even creating gar-den beds and, at one time, growing pumpkins.

The master plan, which is out for public comment now until the end of this month, indicates an area on the south side of the creek where the park boundary will be “reinstated in areas of encroachment”.

While it’s not yet clear

whether this means the Cooks’ plantings will have to go (and Dot says “over my dead body”, with a laugh), the couple said they are ready for their “little piece of paradise” to change – a little.

“They have all been re-ally good about it,” Laurie said of the visits from coun-cil and clean-up crews to this back-end of the Rotary-managed park.

“We have looked after our bit, and the rest can take care of itself.

“What we always want-ed to do was to make this part look pretty.

“I love it when I come

out and see families enjoy-ing themselves here.”

Kangaroo Flat Ward councillor Barry Lyons said he hopes the council will adopt the master plan.

“I’d love to see it done over the next three years, but we know it will depend on budgets and the work will be done incremental-ly,” he said.

Project team landscape architect Rosanna Gapella said feedback from resi-dents had con� rmed strong community support for the upgrade.

“Most people said they would like to see the park stay as it is, in terms of

open space and the way it is used,” Ms Gapella said.

“There were a few mi-nor points about the play-ground and safety, but there has been very little consternation about it.”

Cr Lyons said plans to improve the park were prompted by a request from the Rotary Club of Kangaroo Flat that council revisit arrangements for its management.

While Rotary will maintain management of the rotunda, maintenance of most of the park areas will come under council’s responsibility, once the up-grade plan is adopted.

Sustainable the way to go

THE terrible scenes com-ing out of Cairo this week have prompted Bendigo’s small Coptic Christian community to speak out.

“We want to send our voice to everyone here to say we are in severe sor-row,” pharmacist George Samaan said.

“We need to help our families in Egypt in any way possible.”

Mr Samaan said there are about 15 Egyptian families living in Ben-digo, most of whom are connected with the St Paul Coptic Orthodox Church.

He said the congrega-

tion has gathered several times this week, to pray for the victims of the at-tacks.

Witnesses reported that last weekend military police � red on crowds of

protestors who were dem-onstrating about the de-struction of churches and attacks on Copts since the deposition of former President Hosni Mubark in Egypt in February.

The head of the Cop-

tic Orthodox Church in Australia, Bishop Suriel, called for the expulsion of the Egyptian Ambassador and two Egyptian Consul Generals.

“They have failed to take a proactive approach

to advocate the rights of the Coptic people in Egypt or to speak out against the atrocities and intense persecution the Coptic people in Egypt are facing,” the Bishop said.

Mr Samaan, who came to Australia on a work visa, has family liv-ing in Cairo.

He said they are safe, but very concerned about the escalating violence against the Coptic com-munity, which is about 15 per cent of the Egyptian population.

He said the Bendigo Copts are hoping people in Australia will add their voices to the growing in-ternational condemna-tion of the persecution.

“Instead of protecting people, the army is killing people, because they dare to ask for their basic right in life, which is to have a place to worship,” Mr Sa-maan said.

FOR people keen to make their house more energy-ef� cient, but not quite sure how to go about it, seeing how some-one else has done it could be just the thing

“The idea is so people interested in renovating or building a sustainable house can learn about the experience from those who have already done it,” Verity Lougoon of Bendigo Sustainabil-ity Group says.

“It can give you a better idea, not just about things that have worked but also about things that haven’t worked.”

BSG is organising a Sustainable House Day on Sunday, October 23, with a number of buildings open for inspection.

Ms Lougoon said there will be ret-ro-� tted houses open as well as houses built according to the latest principles, including � at-pack quick-build con-structions designed for tourism or for housing in tough conditions.

The self-tour day will start at Pep-perGreen Farm, where Access Employ-ment have installed emergy ef� cient modular buildings as part of their train-ing facility.

The training centre buildings were designed and built by Bendigo-based Eco Villages Worldwide.

Ms Lougoon says designers and builders will be on hand for people to consult.

Participants will also be able to tour the Enviropod group of houses on High Street at Kangaroo Flat, which is pres-ently up for sale.

These modular houses are delivered as � at-packs, and quick to construct, with adaptable � oor-plans, designed to reduce both heating and cooling.

Highly insulated, they are also solar powered.

Still working on the � nal program for the Sustainable House day, Ms Lou-goon says up to six houses will be open from 10.30am to 4pm, with owners and suppliers on hand to answer questions.

There’s a $20 sign-on, and organis-ers are encouraging people to car-share once they have gathered at PepperGreen Farm to register from 9.30am.

You can register on-line at trybook-ing.com.au, or phone Bendigo Sustain-ability Group on 5443 5244.

Make the time for

exercise nowIS exercise really that important to good health?

The short answer is a resounding yes. Research into the bene� ts of exercise

and its effects on a person’s health has de� nitively shown that it is crucial to as-sist in the prevention of a range of life-style-related diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease and certain types of cancer.

Keeping active becomes more im-portant as we get older to stop mus-cle-wasting and help prevent oste-oporosis.

Here are some suggestions:

An extra 10 minutes of sleep is not going to de-

termine how much you get out of the day. Get up 15 minutes ear-lier and make yourself a healthy breakfast.

Take the next step and get up half an hour ear-

lier to make time for breakfast and 15 minutes of exercise if you know you may not have time in the evening or during the day.

This will get your metabo-lism and blood pumping.

Exercise in the morning helps you feel fresh and motivated. It clears your head and releases endor-phins which alleviate stress

Don’t go home after work, head straight to the gym.

If you go home you are much more likely to give away the idea and the carbs you eat in the evening will go into fat storage overnight.

Be encouraged to avoid making excuses by look-

ing to inspirational people and seeking motivating images and goals.

Drink plenty of water to rehydrate during ex-

ercise. Dehydrated cells are ex-hausted cells.

Aim for exercise at least four times a week. Ex-

ercise works the diaphragm, which massages the intestines and thereby improves digestion. It also regulates appetite, blood sugar control and metabolism.

HUNDREDS of pil-grims are expected to descend on Bendigo this month as one of Australia’s premier Catholic pilgrimages comes of age.

The 90-kilometre Ballarat to Bendigo Christus Rex Pilgrim-age turns 21 this year, and organisers are anticipating a record turnout as pilgrims of

all ages take part in the event that last year re-ceived a blessing from the Pope.

The three-day pil-grimage is modelled on the ancient Paris to Chartres pilgrimage in France, and celebrates Mass in Latin in the Extraordinary Form.

It begins at Bal-larat’s St Patrick’s Ca-thedral on October 28,

where pilgrims meet at dawn for a traditional blessing.

The pilgrims arrive at Sacred Heart Cathe-dral at 3pm on Sun-day, October 30, for a Solemn High Mass.

More information can be found at www.crex.org or by phoning Marty Corboy on 0414 564 876.

Police pods on agendaBy ANTHONY RADFORD

THE State Government will be urged to set up police pods to combat anti-social violence, and use state-of-the-art technology to detect bush� res, at the Liberal Party State Council meeting in Bendigo this weekend.

About 400 politicians and delegates will meet at the All Seasons Quality Re-sort to discuss a series of motions and hear from guest speakers.

Deputy Federal Opposi-tion Leader Julie Bishop will address the delegates tomor-row morning, and Premier

Ted Baillieu will make a speech on Sunday.

Local Liberal branches have moved a series of mo-tions that will be discussed and voted on Sunday morn-ing.

Among these are calls for the government to introduce the pods, and gain access to the � re detection technol-ogy.

The police pods would comprise vans that would be set up areas prone to anti-social violence, such as nightclubs, and in Har-greaves Mall, to provide a police presence and rapid response.

“The incidence of anti-social behaviour in region-al communities has given those cities a jolt,” the mo-tion reads.

“The issues once thought

of being more prevalent in Melbourne are now in country Victoria on a weekly basis, whether in shopping areas during the day or in entertainment precincts at night.

“The proposal for police

pods would assist police in strengthening their presence and returning respect to the streets.

“This motion also sup-ports the use of those same

police pods in visiting schools to promote respon-sibility and respect.”

The delegates will also hear calls for the govern-ment to access � re-detection devices, which are currently in Australia but dormant.

“The Firewatch early � re detection technology, us-ing sensors that operate 24 hours a day, was developed in Europe and is now being used to assist in reducing the impact of � res in parts of Asia and the US,” according to the Golden Square Lib-eral branch.

“The technology was trialled in Victoria by the Commonwealth as part of the response following Black Saturday.

“However, since the conclusion of those tri-als, the equipment has sat dormant and not connected to � re monitor-

ing services in Victoria.“(Such) a vital and proven

tool in combating � re should be part of Victoria’s efforts for the coming � re season.”

The local branches will also put forward a motion calling for the intro-duction of better wi-� and mobile services on country trains, and the establish-ment of quiet carriages on trains.

Health Minister Da-vid Davis will also hold a policy forum at the coun-cil, speaking about the Bendigo hospital redevelop-ment.

‘Bendigo’ turns 200THIS week is Bendigo’s 200th birthday.

William ‘Abednego’ Thompson, the English prize � ghter known as Bendigo, was born on October 18, 1811.

The BBC reported this week that a plaque has been placed on the build-ing where Bendigo was born in Not-tingham, honouring the famous bare-knuckle � ghter who only lost one of 20 � ghts during his career.

“Bendigo also has a city named after him in Australia,” the BBC reported.

The basis for this claim is, in fact, still in dispute and probably always will be.

In Naming Bendigo, the booklet pub-lished as part of the � rst exhibition at Bendigo Art Gallery’s Post Of� ce Gallery, curator Sandra Bruce wrote “Bendigo’s origins are shrouded in mystery”.

Ms Bruce documented the “of� cial attempt to � nd an answer” in 1890 when a committee undertook to � nd out where the name of the city came from.

That committee found evidence of the name dating back to 1840, when it was “so called after an employee on that portion of the Ravenswood station which afterwards became known as the Bendigo Gold� eld.”

Apparently, an overseer, “a bit of a dab with his � sts, and a great admirer of the boxer Bendigo”, named the creek Bendigo, or, as another version has it, there was a man on Mount Alexander Run given the nickname after the famed � ghter.

That’s now become the most com-mon origin, but Ms Bruce also identi-� ed other claims, such as that the word was a corruption of bandicoot, or that it referred to the bends in the river – a place “all bend and go”.

By BEN CAMERON

FIVE-year-old Caitlin Crute leads an ac-tive life that would put most of us to shame.

Mainly because she doesn’t have a choice: like more than 122,000 Austra-lians, Caitlin has Type 1 diabetes.

She’s struggled with the symptoms for the past two years: a serious lack of sleep, a constant need for exercise and carbohydrate loading and daily injec-tions, which helps keep her alive.

Thankfully, a ride or a walk around the lake is in her family’s daily routine, which maintains her all-important blood glucose levels.

Then there’s the extra carbohy-drates she has to eat.

“Caitlin needs to eat every 2.5 hours to keep her BGL stable,” mum Sharna said.

This includes three main meals and three smaller meals, each with a certain amount of carbohydrates, based on her daily insulin intake.

The Harry Little Kindergarten pupil doesn’t get much sleep either, having to be woken two or three times on a good night.

“When she is sick she is woken a lot more and has very little sleep,” Sharna said.

But help is within the family’s grasp, in the shape of a new $8500 in-sulin pump (which delivers fast-acting insulin 24 hours a day), that would greatly improve her quality of life.

The pump is tiny, the size of a small MP3 player, connected through a small tube and cannula in her belly.

“It would mean no more needles for Caitlin,” Sharna said.

“This machine will keep our Cait-lin alive and deliver insulin in a more natural way.

“As a parent, to watch my daughter go through this every day breaks my heart and if I could take this away from her, I would.

“It (the pump) would give us and more so Caitlin a lot more freedom and � exibility in her day-to-day life.”

At the moment, Caitlin has to en-dure two injections and 10 � nger pricks a day.

“Emotionally, Caitlin doesn’t deal with the needles real well,” Sharna said.

“It’s a daily battle to get her to have her injections, which she knows are very important and we stress to her that this keeps her alive, but, we have learnt that this is Caitlin’s way of having con-trol.”

To raise money and awareness for Caitlin and diabetes, Sharna is organis-ing the “Walk to Cure Diabetes” at Al-bert Park Lake on October 23.

Go to the fundraising page at www.walk.jdrf.org.au or call Sharna on 0422 953 331 or 5446 9310.

Help is at hand

BENDIGO real estate agent CR Martin was one of the � rst businesses to sign up for a business en-ergy assessment.

More than 1600 jobs could be created and half a billion dollars injected back into the community if Bendigo businesses re-duced their electricity use by 30 per cent.

The Bendigo Weekly is joining forces with Cen-tral Victoria Solar City to promote the Target 30 campaign.

During October, Ben-digo businesses of all sizes are being offered

discounted Business En-ergy Assessments. CVSC

is looking for 350 busi-nesses to sign up this month, and the bene� ts could be two-fold.

The data collected will be fed to the Federal Government as part of the development of en-ergy policy.

Principal Clive Mar-tin said he was delighted with the results of the as-sessment for his business.

“I now know what questions to ask next time my electrician is around,” he said.

“Other businesses should do this to save money, because, really,

no one knows until it is pointed out to you just how much money you can actually save.”

TO participate in the trial and receive an assessment, busi-nesses can contact Sonny on 0467 519 008 or by email at [email protected] or register online at www.centralvictoriasolarcity.com.au

Unsuitable for use

BENDIGO Court’s founda-tion stone is dated 1896, 115 years ago.

In 1896, powered � ight was a dream, the telephone was just over 20 years old, and man landing on the moon and computers as we know them today were stuff of science � ction.

When the Bendigo Court was built there were Courts of Summary Juris-diction, or Petty Sessions as they were then known, in Castlemaine and Kyneton.

In 1896 Human Rights and Equal Opportunity and Occupation, Health and Safety had not yet formed part of our lexicon.

At Bendigo Court a person who is restricted in movement does not have the same bene� ts of access as does an able-bodied per-son.

Courts of Petty Ses-sion were also operating in Eaglehawk, Elmore, and Rochester. Bendigo was the central regional court.

From about the mid 1980s, Eaglehawk, Elmore and Rochester had all closed.

Court closures were the subject of an Auditor Gen-eral’s report in November, 1986. The case load from each was then transferred to Bendigo.

The complexity of mat-ters dealt with by Magis-trates’ Courts has also in-creased.

More serious charges can now be heard in the Magistrates’ Court and the jurisdictional limit for prop-erty-related crimes has also been increased.

Other quasi-judicial bodies such as Victorian Civil Administration Tribu-nal and Victims of Crime Assistance Tribunal have been created relatively re-cently in the context of the life of this court building.

All of this means that cases that are heard by mag-istrates take far longer and

courtroom availability is at a premium when other ju-dicial bodies are required to be accommodated.

This can mean that cases are not � nalised as early as they might once have been.

When I began prosecut-ing in 1992 there were two magistrates who serviced the region.

There are now four. There is only the one entry point to the court which is

accessed via a ramp to the basement.

Courts One and Two are vast and impressive archi-tectural chambers, however the acoustics within each is appalling.

Court Three is a smaller chamber where the acous-tics are better, however one has to then also compete with passing pedestrian traf-� c which can sometimes be noisy and off-putting.

Court Four is a smaller chamber again, situated on the Pall Mall side of the building.

Acoustics is not such an issue here, however traf� c

noise from trucks and trams impacts on one’s ability to adequately address the court.

The witness box is with-in arm’s length of the pros-ecutor. Contested cases in-volving serious assaults have been heard in this room.

A public address system has been installed at the court and while this assists in alerting court users to their case being called, there

are frequent instances where people do not hear who is being paged.

The Bendigo Court does not have a secure way to re-ceive persons in custody.

An accused is removed from transportation in full view of the public.

Court Two is the only Magistrates’ Court that can receive persons in custody.

At this point in time there are no toilet facilities for police who attend court to perform duty as prosecu-tors, court security, or mere-ly to attend to give evidence or support victims.

There is no prosecutor’s

room set aside for the spe-ci� c use of police prosecu-tors on a day-to-day basis.

The Bendigo Magis-trates’ Court does not enjoy the same security standards as other metropolitan and regional headquarter courts, such as Geelong and Bal-larat.

Apart from the duty so-licitor room, there are no facilities at court for a prac-titioner to speak privately with their client.

There are no facilities for police to speak privately with witnesses, legal practi-tioners, or other police.

Police are not the only agency workers who use the court’s services.

Department of Human Services, RSPCA, local coun-cils, VicRoads, WorkCover, and Commonwealth DPP all add to the court work-load.

Civil matters are also dealt with by the court. Family Violence Interven-tion Order Proceedings have also placed a further burden on court listings.

Any decision on a pur-pose-built facility would need to be made after con-sultation with all stakehold-ers, taking into account the needs of each.

Bendigo desperately needs a new courthouse. The current building, while beautiful, is unsuitable and unsafe for modern law.In this instalment of a series looking at all areas of law, Leading Senior Constable DAVID SOMERTON, a police prosecutor, looks at why the current courthouse in unsuitable for criminal law. He paints a picture of “appalling” acoustics, dangerous layouts, no privacy, no facilities and a total lack of security.

Just too lazyIn relation to your headline Junk City, (Bendigo Weekly, Oc-tober 7) I must sadly advise that nothing the City of Great-er Bendigo council does will ever change the mindset of an unfortunately large section of our society in relation to waste disposal and recycling.

My work requires me to visit all parts of Bendigo and all types of private dwellings across the demographic spec-trum of lifestyles and incomes.

By and large, most garbage bins are filled with recyclable materials of all descriptions.

no specific age or gender applies here; it is simply that people are just too lazy to sort their genuine waste from what can be recycled.

They don’t give a hoot, and no amount of educating, advertising, pamphlet drops or cost incentives will ever change them.

We are largely, with a number of exceptions, a nation of wasteful sloths who make it a losing battle for those people who genuinely attempt each and every day to reduce waste and recycle household items.

Eric Lakey,Bendigo

Recipe for disasterTHE meeting of Eaglehawk residents was reported in the last edition of the Bendigo Weekly, October 7, and focused on the view of one person.

I do not believe these views were shared by all at the meeting.

Eaglehawk is a place where people are welcomed not on the basis of their social or eco-nomic standing.

The major concern ex-pressed is that if this facility is going to be developed then it must be of a suitable stand-ard to meet the needs of those who are affected by homeless-ness and in a life crisis.

My 30-plus years as a men-tal health professional work-ing in the community in the area of crisis management and community care lead me to make the following comments about the plans submitted to council: I would argue this proposal is a disaster for the potential clients.

Twenty-eight rooms stuck in an old building on one of the busiest intersections in the Bendigo area, with no parking,

no external amenities for up to 40 to 50 people in residence in rooms that are no bigger than a pantry in a modern home.

People experiencing a time of major life crisis, all crowd-ed into a sub-standard, over-crowded facility in a licensed premises.

This is a recipe for disaster. I hope that sound plan-

ning principles are adhered to in this matter, whether it be with the Liquor Licensing Commission, Local Govern-ment, or the Department of Housing and Community Services.

People who are in a crisis time in their lives deserve humane, culturally relevant emergency support services.

The people of Eaglehawk are compassionate and will not stand idly by and will challenge at every stage of the planning/approval process, and insist that all departments and statutory bodies with re-sponsibility in this matter will be held accountable.

The big danger is that it is an easy out for governments to shirk their responsibilities to care for people in their time of need.

Paul Penno, Eaglehawk

Glass half fullRE: the article “Residents say no” published in the Bendigo Weekly, October 7.

We would like to make the following comments. We are offended and disappointed by the reported comments which were attributed to Mrs Miller.

We see a desperate need for low-rental accommoda-tion. Wouldn’t it be better to be placing positive energy into a plan to accommodate peo-ple in need, rather than the negative, offensive comments quoted?

Our community does not see the relevance of the com-ments made in reference to the primary school, re: character and behaviour of the children attending, rather, this com-ment reflects the attitude of a former mayoress of Eagle-hawk.

And we certainly don’t see the relevance about people congregating in the park. We believe parks are for people, all people, and to say otherwise is ridiculous.

We are very proud of our parks. In fact community

members and volunteers of Eaglehawk Community House (people from public housing) contributed many hours of their time in the design and reconstruction of Bright Street Community Park.

The comments of Mrs Miller in the article paint a very dim view of people in need, people from public housing.

Our local public-housing tenants contribute many posi-tives to the very fabric of Ea-glehawk. For example the Ea-glehawk Community Cultural festival is in its sixth successive year, and would not occur without their voluntary sup-port.

And we remind your read-ers that our public housing res-idents were willing to commit their time to protect everyone’s housing in the recent bushfires around Bendigo.

Eaglehawk Community House is one of a few commu-nity centres in our region and offers a positive environment for everyone.

They do not discriminate. They offer programs such as weekly community lunches,

Tai Chi, pottery, digital pho-tography, school holiday ac-tivities for primary school stu-dents, art and craft for those affected by bushfires to help people reconnect with their community.

Please look for the glass half full, not half empty.

It is better to promote growth in any community rather than focus on negativity.

Denise Wilson, Relma Betts, Glynn Jarrett,

Eaglehawk

Take off the blinkersLEADERS of the Bendigo Sustainability Group should take their blinkers off when it comes to meeting the short and medium-term energy needs of Victoria without driv-ing family and business fi-nances to the wall.

Their zealous pursuit of re-newable sources for all power is laughable and very danger-ous for Victoria.

As dangerous as unfettered support for a carbon tax that will disadvantage Victorians.

If Karen Corr and others at the head of BSG had their way, Victoria would be left with a few inefficient solar panels and throbbing wind farms to power every home, business and industry.

The disruption to the economy and to life in Bend-igo and other towns would be horrendous.

Everyone has to do their bit to improve the environ-ment, but whacking a carbon tax on everything is not the way to go, particularly when the rest of the world is not trav-elling that path.

It is a shame that BSG con-tinues to be oblivious to the damage a toxic carbon tax will do.

Robert Treller,Maiden Gully

Rubbish solutionsI nOTE the article called Junk City on the front page of last week’s Bendigo Weekly.

Mr Craig niemann ex-pressed his concern at how the smaller bins have failed to reduce the amount of rubbish

being taken to the Eaglehawk tip.

Of course it will not reduce the amount of rubbish – you can’t reduce your rubbish by changing the size of your bin.

I think an easy way to re-duce rubbish would be to get manufacturers to reduce the amount of packaging on goods and food.

I think the council is lucky people are actually taking the rubbish to the tip.

I have only recently moved into the Bendigo area, but I have seen many other areas where councils try to reduce the amount of rubbish being collected the general result is an increase in illegal rubbish dumping in bush areas.

I rent, therefore I cannot choose my bin size, but the small bin we have goes out every week full as I can fill it – bring back the big bins.

As for recycling, I think the council should do a week-ly pick-up of the recycling bins, that would increase the amount recycled immediately.

There were historic scenes of celebration, kisses exchanged and even a protest when the Gillard government’s conten-tious carbon pricing legisla-tion was approved by the house of representatives this week.

Whether or not Australia should put a price on carbon is one of the most divisive issues this nation has encountered in the modern era, and for what it’s worth, I believe it is something not just Australia, but indeed the world, needs to confront and deal with.

Doing nothing to try and fix a problem should never be an option and in fact, does not offer a solution at all.

It wasn’t an option in 2007 when both major parties took some sort of carbon pricing policy to the election. John howard may have been a late convert to the cause, but the former coalition government and now federal opposition has morphed into just that – opposition.

Tony Abbott maintains he will wind back the carbon

pricing legislation should he be elected prime minister at the next federal election, but it seems this would be a job far easier said than done.

The easy way out is just that. Not the best way out, but certainly the easiest.

For its part, the govern-ment reckons that while elec-tricity prices will rise up to 10

per cent because of the new carbon price legislation, the cost of living for Australian families will rise by only about 0.7 per cent.

Julia Gillard and her gov-ernment, and the indepen-dents who supported the implementation of this legis-lation, deserve to be judged on these numbers.

It would be easy to attri-bute the rapidly rising energy prices to the carbon tax, but in essence, much of this is due to a need to replace and upgrade

ageing infrastructure and needs to be completed.

And now that Australia has made the brave and bold move to take action on pric-ing carbon, pressure needs to be applied to other nations and economies to do likewise. Ultimately, the success or oth-erwise of pricing carbon will not be the impact on the cost

of living, but the difference it makes to the environment, something that can only be achieved by more nations tak-ing action.

Australia’s decision made global headlines, but it should have been a global decision to implement a carbon price, and to this end, the United Na-tions now needs to flex some muscle. It needs to demon-strate why it is an organisation of Nations supposedly United.

In need of careIF and when the plans to improve Gateway Park at Kangaroo Flat are approved by council, Bendigo will get another good park to add to the list of this beautiful city’s green spaces.

Walk through Gateway Park now, and you will find it a little neglected, and very much in need of some ten-der loving care.

You will also see where some very odd decisions were made in the past, with housing encroaching on the long strip of land around the Bendigo Creek.

It’s like a jigsaw puzzle with the edge bits missing.

Putting time and money into it now will protect the park into the future.

City of Greater Bendigo council now has a number of parks and gar-den projects on the go, and it will be difficult for them to juggle all the dif-ferent priorities in the next few years.

Gateway Park, not yet budgeted, will require a relatively small cost commitment, compared with other major projects such as eaglehawk’s Canterbury Gardens and the Ben-digo Botanic Gardens at White hills.

Council’s chief executive officer

Craig Niemann has already indicat-ed that the ambitious Master Plan for the Botanic Gardens will take as long as 20 years to achieve and that work will proceed in incremental steps.

Just this week it was announced that restoration of the 1905 pic-nic shelter at the Botanic Gardens has been completed, thanks to an $80,000 grant from heritage Victo-ria. Further work is scheduled next year.

These small tasks, such as rein-stating timber bridges and landscap-ing, improve the gardens, but ev-eryone knows that, sometime soon, there will need to be a big commit-ment of funds if the much-admired master plan is ever to be completed.

Bendigo will soon be a city of change, with upgrades in the city centre transforming an adequate cul-

tural precinct into a brilliant one. how good it would be if, as this

part of the vision for Bendigo is re-alised, we could begin to look for-ward to the realisation of those plans for a botanic gardens that will be ad-mired by not just the people of Ben-digo but the rest of the country too.

14 • LIFE www.bendigoweekly.com.au Bendigo Weekly – Friday, October 14, 2011

IT doesn’t happen often, but I was star-struck on Sunday.

I have openly ridiculed the fascination some people have with stars of AFL, fawn-ing around them as if they were gods rather than sports-men, but I think I can under-stand the feeling now.

There I was tucking into my Sunday treat of breakfast eggs in a Kyneton cafe and the long-suffering Mrs Kend-all uttered the amazing sen-tence: “I think Asher Keddie is behind you.”

My heart leapt a beat, as I cautiously turned. Then I heard the voice, it was Ash-er all right. There in all her blonde loveliness. A vision in a beautiful green out� t.

Slighter than I imagined, but more stunning in real life.

I had that remarkable feeling of butter� ies, went hot and had a rush to the head. I was also speechless, a rare thing nowadays let me tell you.

I was on safe ground here, Mrs K knows I have a thing about Miss Keddie.

She allowed me to look without a thump to pull me back in line.

It seems I had been sit-

ting near to the Asher god-dess for a while, but Mrs K had not mentioned it.

Probably a good thing, knowledge of close proximity for too long could have been detrimental to my health.

It was the briefest of pass-ings, I did not utter a word to her, but it was magic.

Asher left in a swish of long blonde hair, and my heart retuned to a near-nor-mal beat.

Mrs K was wildly amused as I drove off oblivious to where I was going, in a part daze.

“Quite made your day,” she said, as I missed another turning.

When I was able to think about it calmly, I was quite interested in the impact.

Here was a woman who I had watched for hours in Love My Way, Offspring and Paper Giants but had no idea who she was as a person.

How can I be that im-pressed?

Last time I suffered that feeling over an unknown was when I was 16.

Many moons ago.I was clutching an LP

record and in line to meet my musical hero of the day, Kate Bush.

To my eternal shame I was mostly speechless as I met Miss Bush.

She started to sign my al-bum cover only to halt as the pen failed.

So, tongue-tied Steve’s only line to Kate was: “The ball’s jammed.”

Kate’s reply was just as stunning. “It’s the lacquer.”

There I was clutching my signed album cursing my lack of ability.

Ever since I have put it down to my tender years, but I reckon if I had been forced into conversation with god-dess Asher I would have been stumbling verbally in a simi-lar way.

Thirty-four years on and still nervous around women.

But Asher is in a starzone all of her own.

On Sunday night I went to bed, and I dreamt of Ash-

er. Now, it sounds like a mov-ie plotline but it’s true.

For some reason she was sitting in my mum’s lounge room and someone was in-terviewing her.

I hunted out my notepad, pushed in and sat down next to her.

I asked if I could have a word.

But she’d just � nished an interview and didn’t want to do any more.

Never, mind I was just happy to look... and dream.

ANGUS MACKAY, the MLA representing Bendi-go in the Victorian parlia-ment, was re-nominated for the position that he had held back in March 1871.

Mackay had some very advanced ideas for his time, particularly in regard to the need to make education for the young of the colony com-pulsory.

His vision was that through education, socie-ty could become more eq-uitable and people could rise beyond what other-wise would have been an almost designated station of their lives.

The effect of the Mackay-sponsored Edu-cation Act, was to see the construction of State Schools across Victoria to cope with the enormous increase in enrolments that took place once the Act had come into opera-tion.

Irishtown, which had been previously served by two fee-paying denomi-national schools, was to also become the home of one of the newly created State Schools.

When established, it was to be called the New State School Irishtown number 325, later known as the North Sandhurst State School.

Back to the nomi-nation form of Angus Mackay, there were � ve days between the nomi-nation being made and it being � nally lodged with the relevant electoral of-� cer.

The length of time was used to obtain the 17 signatures of registered electors who were in sup-port of Mackay’s nomina-tion.

To me the names on the form are of interest as the electors who have endorsed the nomination are a very broad represen-tation of Bendigo society at that time.

The names transposed are: RB Sibley, James Car-michael, TJ Connelly, John Fisher, WP Simpson, WP Neale, John Stephen-son, William Powell, Henry Smith, James Samuel, D Macdougall, George Joseph, William

Hosking, Albert Edward Berkeley Casey, William C Vahland, Charles Sch-lemm and Ch Daley.

To those readers fa-miliar with Bendigo, there are some very well known names listed, rep-

resenting a diversity of viewpoints, religion, and ethnicity, giving us a true indication of the wide respect that Mackay had engendered within the community.

As all aspiring poli-

ticians, Mackay cam-paigned to espouse his policies and aspira-tions for his constitu-ency by holding public meetings in all parts of the electorate, including Irishtown.

IT’S open garden season, your chance to snoop about for ideas.

The � rst open garden of the season is a fundraiser for a week-long festival schedule for the end of April next year.

The Bendigo and District Branch of the National Trust has secured funding from City of Greater Bendigo Council for Heritage Awards, which they are aiming to announce at the inaugural heritage festival in the last week of April next year.

Branch president Gary Hill says the festival wants to put the whole city on display.

“Bendigo is a good exam-ple of a place where the whole city is a museum,” Mr Hill says

“One of the dominant features of its heritage is the industrial landscape, as well as the cultural landscape.

“We’re looking for peo-ple’s stories, so if someone feels they have a collection of documents and photographs to do with their family history and they want an opportunity to show them, then this will be an opportunity.”

Mr Hill wants businesses and organisations to get be-hind the festival too.

“They can open their doors and display their arte-facts, holding exhibitions and displays,” he says.

The National Trust’s � rst fund-raiser for their new fes-tival will be Sunday October 23, from 101m to 4pm, at Har-dhill House, 57 Green Street, California Gully.

Mr Hill is hoping people who are interested will come along ($3 entry) to enjoy the garden and � nd out more about the proposed festival.

“It’s all about people con-tributing what they know and what they can put on display.”

KATE GRENVILLE’S Sarah Thornhill picks up the story of The Secret River family who settle on the banks of the Hawkesbury River with vision to prosper and make themselves respectable.

But, as readers of The Secret River know, along the way these settlers did things they would later regret, and in Sarah Thornhill, the se-crets of the past rise up to cast, as Grenville writes, a “long chill shadow”.

Grenville has taken her own family history as inspiration for her nov-els. Her forebear Solomon Wiseman was transported to Sydney in 1806 like Thornhill in her books.

After The Secret River was published, a “distant relative” got in touch and said a family anecdote had it that Wiseman’s daughter “fell pregnant to the gar-dener and died”.

“This felt like a nudge in the ribs from the cos-mos, so I went back to the archives,” Grenville says.

The result is this swift-

ly-moving, surprising nov-el, which reads like a mys-tery story, but also � lls in deftly parts of our colonial history.

Grenville took more than 20 drafts to get the plot right on this one, but all that hard work hardly shows. The people are real, and places come alive.

THE good people at Erindale Farm would like it known that, chemical free they may be, but they don’t claim organic status. Our report about the Community Farmers Markets referred to Erindale’s organic beef, while in fact their Black Angus Beef is fed in pastures treated with 95 per cent natu-ral fertilisers and they use “no antibiotics, steroids or growth promotants”.

Also at the Markets (sec-ond Saturday each month), you’ll � nd McIvor Farm Foods’ free range pork, which are also farmed on the “natural, ethical, wholesome” principle. They are newcomers to Ben-digo (they’re based out Heath-

cote way), but they are getting into the swing of things fast.

Time to start thinking about ham for Christmas, they remind us.

LIOR:EASY AS 3-2-1

K Y L E : 2005 saw you burst onto the music scene with

your debut album Autumn Flow. Recorded and released independently, it would go on to become one of the most suc-cessful independent debuts in Australian history. What were your expectations of how well the record would be received at the time?

LIOR: I honestly didn’t have any expectations. I produced the album independently, self-funded it and I just handed it to Triple J. I really didn’t expect anything and they were actu-ally the ones that chose which songs to play and then just fed o the public reaction af-ter that. It was organic in the way that it grew and I was just blown away by its success (win-ning three ARIA nominations) and I had to pinch myself. It was a beautiful journey and contin-ued to grow in a very organic and real way. I’ve never been involved with a record label and have always done my albums independently so I feel like I have a really direct connection

with my audience, and I just re-ally like keeping it that way.

KYLE: Your second album Corner Of An Endless Road was also a huge success, debuting at #2 on the ARIA charts. How did the creative process di er for the second album given your experience after Autumn Flow, and also the added weight of fan expectation?

LIOR: Yeah, it’s really hard to escape that pressure. When I was making my � rst album I wasn’t really expecting any-thing. So I tried to really chal-lenge myself and make an am-bitious album, one that was not guided by what people were expecting. With Endless Road I worked with an orchestra as opposed to Autumn Flow which was produced with quite mod-est means.

Endless Road was also a bit more of a darker album with its subject matter and being in� u-enced by things that were go-ing on in my life. You can only deal with what is inspiring you at the time and not get hijacked with what people are expecting. At the end of the day, the art it-self is what is left and you’ve got to be happy with that.

KYLE: The end of 2010 and beginning of 2011 saw the release of your critically-acclaimed third album Tum-bling Into The Dawn and the start of your By Request Tour. What in� uenced your decision to embark on a tour where the set list for each performance is controlled by the fans in atten-dance?

LIOR: It was probably a

combination of reasons really. It’s been six years since my � rst album came out and I’ve done three albums in that time. I’ve always felt that my audience is pretty loyal and I thought it would be cool to do something that says thankyou and gets them a bit more involved. So I put the word out there to my fans to write to me and let me know which songs they want to hear. It’s been great because each show is di erent, as is each set list, and it just gives me the challenge and enjoyment of putting on a show that is inter-active. It’s been great fun, and a great way of mixing things up and connecting with the audi-ence

KYLE: You also include the option of a cover song to be chosen at each performance on the tour. What song have you most enjoyed covering the most so far?

LIOR: It’s been funny actu-ally. I’ve had a lot of fun giving Bon Jovi and Alice Cooper a crack. There have been some songs that I’ve really enjoyed doing. What I like about the cover song option is that you get some songs that are fun and challenging, and others that are just a lot of fun; I think that di-versity has been the key for me. Trying to mix it up and make it as entertaining and di erent as possible.

Lior plays The Palais Hep-burn Springs Saturday, Octo-ber 15.

KYLE HEASLIPMidway through his two-month By Request tour of Australia, ARIA nominated artist Lior takes the time to chat with b.entertained on all things music.

AT a battle of the bands event at Musicland in Fawker, Mel-bourne, last weekend, Eater of the Sky took out � rst place, earning themselves a place in the semis.

“We came � rst in that heat by a fair amount of votes,” Eat-er’s Declan Hain says.

“We also received some great feedback from the judges as well as the other bands that played.

“We have actually had a hard time trying to de� ne our sound to people... all of our songs are very diverse in terms of feel and genre.

“Our music has a lot of em-phasis on dynamic rhythms and

grooves, with a heavy metal and melodic rock twist.”

Eater of the Sky began as Igloo in 2008 after guitarist Sam Butcher and Hain started look-ing for a drummer to jam and write with; through a Music In-dustry course, they found Nick Reid.

“We started jamming and writing original material from the get go,” Hain says.

“We went through two vo-calists through the years, but none were as committed to the band as the original line-up.

“So early this year we de-cided to just take on the role of vocals ourselves, this led to the change of name and music

style.” The band have gradually become semi-regulars at the Newmarket Hotel, and a follow-ing is building.

“Whilst it may be small, we believe we are starting to gain momentum,” Hain says.

“The general atmosphere of the Newmarket is just great.

“We have met so many great people and musicians through playing there.

“The bands that we have played with such as Armed Ko-rean and El Montez have been great supporters of us.” Eater of the Sky play the New-market Hotel with El Montez and We, The Dreams on October 21.

By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

YOU have probably seen one in a paddock by a road you’ve sped along in your car in the back-blocks.

Low-slung, rusted iron, sun-bleached timber, steepled like a church, a building of rhythmic functionality.

They aren’t beautiful, woolsheds. So how come they draw us like a � ne painting on a white wall in an art gallery, demand-ing at least a moment of contemplation of their lines, their details, their meaning?

Tim Fischer, who writes a foreword to pho-tographer Andrew Chap-man’s new book about Australian woolsheds, suggests that it might have something to do with the history that con-gregates in the rafters of the big sheds.

He suggests some-thing about our Aus-tralian identity when he points out that a woolshed is a schizo-phrenic kind of place: “It is either full-on with colour, action and move-ment as the sheep � y across the boards and the wool hits the table for the skirting and sorting into bales, or it is deadly silent in the long months between shearing.”

Mr Fischer describes the woolshed at those unused times as “eerie, unloved and lonely”.

This is the melan-choly, slightly unnerving thing about a deserted woolshed. While one of the best-known and loved paintings in Aus-tralian history is Tom Roberts’ busy Shearing the Rams, it is the dusty light and remnants of toil that make Chap-man’s photographs so powerful.

“They are dramatical-

ly beautiful,” Mr Chap-man says.

“You lose a lot of shots because the sheds can be really dark, and the wood doesn’t re� ect much.

“But there are so many elements that make them visually in-teresting.”

Mr Chapman, based in the Dandenongs, has been photographing shearers and the people and places of the wool industry since 1976.

His � rst woolshed was “a nondescript tinny in Central Victoria”.

Just as he completed the work on this book, “a labour of love”, he was laid low with liver disease, and almost died. A life-saving transplant later, he is back at work, documenting the land-scape and the people of the country.

Earlier this week, he was in Castlemaine visit-ing friends, and took the opportunity to check out an old woolshed north of Maldon.

“It had pretty well collapsed,” he says.

“Year by year, the sheds go, one by one. I hate seeing them go.”

Mr Chapman’s Woolsheds ranges far and wide, from an aban-doned woolshed on Bruny Island in Tasma-nia, crumbling into the ferns, to a huge, grand, shiny new shed near Hay in New South Wales, re-built after a tornado bat-tered everything � at in 2007.

Victoria is represent-ed by a classic corrugated iron shed in Streatham, an abandoned rusting heap of an old shed in

Manangatang, a snazzy little shed with a gabled roof in Mirboo, and Ra-heen, weathered like a chequerboard on the rolling hills near Heath-cote.

He quotes farmers such as Graham Hyslop of Ailsa, at Spring Plains near Heathcote, who de-scribes his 700 acres as “enough to get you into trouble but not enough to get you out”.

He says the response to this and other books about the wool industry

has reinforced his under-standing that, in Austral-ia, there is a “deep love” and nostalgia for the country.

“I’ve had so many kind wishes, and it’s tapped into a strong well of memories,” he says.

“People have said to me, I can almost smell the wool.

“I didn’t expect it to be such an emotional re-sponse, but it’s a beauti-ful thing.”

Woolsheds by An-drew Chapman is pub-lished by Five Mile Press, $39.95.

DEADLY SILENT: Drysdale shearing shed at Euroa. The property is owned by Ian Milliken.

People have said to me, I can almost smell the wool. I didn’t expect it to be such an emotional response...

FOR many years now, the Bendigo community has benefited from the services of Enhance – a not-for-profit organisation which provides computer sales and service for people on low incomes. Enhance has re-launched with a brand new name, and a new enthusiasm. They are now called ReVamp Computers.

“We are really excited about this new stage in our community service” said Project Officer Brenda O’Shannessy. “We are committed to helping people to become part of the new age; to get on-line and share in the benefits of technology.”

According to Brenda, there is still a significant number of people who have not been able to keep up with the demands of modern communication, and this can only be detrimental and socially isolating. “In today’s world, it is no longer a matter of choice. Computers are

not a luxury, but a necessity. More and more services and information are become accessible only through electronic means, and those who do not have the means are becoming more and more disadvantaged.”

That is the whole mission underpinning ReVamp Computers. They refurbish donated computers, and supply them with full operating systems, and peripherals, and then sell them to people at a very

low cost. They also provide computer repairs at a very low price, and if they can’t fix it, they don’t charge.

ReVamp Computers is a division of Future Employment Opportunities, an organisation that is committed to social opportunities, employment and social inclusion. ReVamp Computers is open on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and can be contacted on 5446 3041 or email [email protected]

THE Bendigo Legion Angling Club and the Heathcote Angling Club held the inaugural Derrinal Cup � shing

competition at the Derrinal Pool at Lake Eppalock early in September.

In appalling conditions Heathcote won the cup despite the efforts of Bendigo’s Maurice Knight of landing the biggest red� n along with Terry Jenkin’s contribution of a decent creel.

Andrew Conforti of Heathcote managed to land the only golden perch of the trip with a 32cm specimen.

Vacancies are still available for any members interested in the Dartmouth trip on October 22 and 23 with John Telford accepting trip captaincy duties – phone 0428 844 671.

With Dartmouth currently in excess of 70 per cent, members are hoping that the increased water levels and slowly rising water temperatures will lead to some activity worthy of the drive.

Closer to home, reports of goldern perch below Turrumbarry weir are becoming more common along with reports with plenty of � sh being caught below the spillways of both Eppalock and Cairn Curran, for those prepared to put in the leg work.

Of interest to the majority of Eppalock � sherman is the news that Fisheries Victoria has removed the recreational bag limit of 30

for red� n per angler, while recognising that it is one of Victoria’s most popular inland species.

Although very popular amongst freshwater anglers, red� n are harmful to native � sh and other sport� sh such as trout according to Fisheries.

This decision will assist in managing red� n in our waterways and may actually improve the quality of many red� n � sheries.

Red� n populations can become stunted due to abundant numbers.

Removing the bag limit will help reduce competition for the available food source allowing � sh to reach a larger size more desired by anglers.

Also Fisheries recently stocked an additional 35,000 Murray cod � ngerlings into the Goulburn River.

This is in addition to the 100,000 Murray cod that Fisheries Victoria stock yearly into lower reaches of the river to

encourage anglers back to areas devastated by � res.

The Murray cod were bought with Victorian Government’s bush� re recovery funds and released between Seymour and Yea.

The Goulburn River between Yea and Seymour has the potential to be a � rst class native � shery for Murray cod, featuring in-stream habitat (fallen timber) and features good access for anglers according to the Department of Primary Industries.

The Central Victorian Lure Caster Supers

competition is on again this Saturday October 15 at Lake Eppalock with the Goldern Perch round.

The super series is a catch and release lure � shing competition with all � sh photographed then released.

Registration is between 6.30am and 7.45am sharp at the Kimbolton Kiosk and Bottle Shop.

Fishing starts at 8am and � nishes at 1pm with presentations after results are � nalised at 2pm.

All competitors must abide by Victorian boating and � shing regulations and compete at their own risk.

Check out the website at www.cvlcss.com or phone Jarrod Martin on 0437 000 6482 for more information.

Heatcote nets the

Derrinal Cup

GAME ON: Members of the Heathcote and Bendigo Fishing Clubs at the recent Derrinal Cup.

THE warmer weather of late certainly raises hopes of some good

springtime � shing in our local reservoirs.

While it is still a bit early to predict what might happen in terms of insect hatches.

I know that the may� y hatch at Barkers Creek Reservoir used to start in early October.

The best days were often about the time of the Bendigo Show.

Hatches at Malmsbury, Lauriston, Newlyn, Hepburn Lagoon and Newlyn Reservoirs are a few weeks later.

Fishing the may� y hatches is often best on cloudy, overcast days.

On such days the insects struggle to dry their wings for take off.

The trout take

advantage of the insects caught in the surface � lm.

Then when the weather heats up in November or December the evening caddis hatch can be expected, especially at Barkers Creek Reservoir.

December often brings the Damsel and Dragon Fly migrations/hatches.

The reports I have heard so far indicate that we might have to be patient until the newly stocked trout grow in our reservoirs.

Col and Gene Holland caught some of the small trout rising at Tullaroop recently.

Better � sh were rising but they were out of casting range.

Hopefully as the bugs increase the � sh will move closer to shore to feed.

They may take some time to realise that the lake is bigger than it was and leave their low water feeding grounds.

I have also heard that there are plenty of the smaller trout rising at Barkers Creek Reservoir.

They are providing a challenge to those casting to them. Again, better-sized � sh are rising further out.

The sections of rivers and creeks below dam walls are also probably worth a look.

Trout love � owing water and often go over spillways or swim upstream when water � ows over.

They take up residence in the tailrace waters below the dams.

FIRST opened in 1993, Harcourt’s much-loved Skydancers Garden Centre and Café is set to re-open on

Saturday.The well renowned tourist

destination and local Harcourt treasure for more than 15 years, Skydancers, has recently undergone a major refurbishment and makeover.

All Stone Quarries bought Skydancers in May, and have initiated a complete metamorphosis of what was originally, Australia’s only temperate Butter� y house.

Skydancers will operate as a Grow Master Garden Centre, continuing its long held tradition of catering to the gardening needs of the local community.

The Manager of Skydancers, Markus

Mollenhauer is well known to the Castlemaine and Harcourt district, he will head up a dedicated team, which will include the horticultural skills of Skydancers founder, Gary Sobey.

The display gardens that encircle the newly renovated and enlarged café have been transformed and will provide seating for many visitors.

Tim Bird co director of ASQ was well aware of the signi� cance that Skydancers had to Central Victoria.

“Skydancers was greatly missed by the community and we are looking forward to welcoming everyone to enjoy our gardens and café,” he said.

Skydancers is located at the corner of the Midland Highway and Blackjack Rd at the south-western edge of Harcourt.

THIS year National Water Week aims to raise awareness of the

importance of taking care of our catchments.

A catchment is an area of land that drains to one point, usually a creek or river.

All land in Australia is part of a catchment.

The ways in which we live and work in these catchments have an impact on the quality of water that drains into these waterways.

Poor management practices on land can lead to deterioration in water quality.

Poor water quality is damaging to the natural environment and increases the level of treatment that our water requires.

National Water Week is the only nationally-focussed event designed to assist our community to take actions that help protect and conserve our most precious resource – water.

National Water Week aims to support and encourage the various members and community groups who create

and promote events during National Water Week, as well as promoting key messages of water conservation.

The success and reach of National water Week lies strongly in the hard work and support of the individuals and organisations who make events and activities happen.

National Water Week’s focus is on connecting to the community and providing pathways for the community to connect with one another. Community education, schools and media resources are also available.

National Water Week is hosted by the Australian Water Association.

In a time when we battle with water shortages, getting involved in NWW may encourage increased understanding by staff, stakeholders and the broader community of what we can do, both individually and collectively, to secure our water future.

See www.nationalwaterweek.org.au for more details.

5441 2209

Hi there, my name is Delilah and I came to the RSPCA with my friend Samson. We have had a rough life spent on the end of a chain. We have not had much human interaction, yet we remain lovable and almost desperate to please. If there is someone who has time and knowledge, we will make loyal and terrifi c companions. We just want a family to love! I will be desexed upon adoption.

STAFFY CROSS, TAN

Hi there, my name is Champ and I am a very sweet boy, who has such a kind heart with a very loving personality which is not too out there for a cat. I am just quiet and I want a loving owner who would like to spend some quality time with me. So why not come and see me. I will be desexed upon adoption.

MALE, 4 YEARS

FEMALE, 3 YEARS

LIFE can be made up of deep-valley-to-mountain- top experiences and it is often the deeper the val-leys the more our charac-ter is shaped. In Year Six, Megan An-derson began to experi-ence minor health issues that did not completely manifest until Year Nine. In the following years there were fainting bouts which were diagnosed initially as a cardiac condi-tion. The fainting continued with prolonged bouts of dizziness until Megan progressed into losing consciousness coinciding with seizures, panic at-tacks, anxiety and depres-sion. The frequency of the attacks increased as did the stigma surrounding Megan’s predicament of still not knowing the di-rect cause or treatment required. Stress levels reached new heights with up to 10 sei-zures in a single day. Thankfully, there was a light shining brightly at the end of the tunnel. Family love and caring school members became a guide for Megan, giving her the will to � ght harder

to overcome the af� iction. With the continued positive af� rmations and physical and emotional support being offered, Megan has been able to transform her “sick kid” thinking into becoming a young person with a de-sire to be on top of her health and well being. This has not only be-come a foundation of the Bendigo South East Col-lege student’s testimonial journey but she has now realised her own experi-ence can become a catalyst in helping others. Megan’s mother and fa-ther, Jacquie and Michael, both being keen cyclists, worked on encouraging Megan to ride, under-standing that the exercise helps to relax the mind and strengthen the soul. Cycling requires as much, if not more, mental strength and control than physical and Megan is coming to appreciate this aspect of her recovery. Cycling requires com-mitment and setting short, medium and longer-term

goals, all conducive to eas-ing anxiety and stress. This combines well with the network of riders that are impartial in accepting allcomers to cycling. After being diagnosed with psychogenic seizures, Megan was told she could not be medicated, how-ever she can now see the silver lining in the cloud has been the fact that she can face her fears while still young. Megan recognises she will always be an anxious person but this condition has taught her how to be strong enough to move on with life and enjoy expe-riences that come along, and she now has strategies that allow her to deal with issues as they arise. Megan’s 500 laps of the Tom Flood Cycling track today will be a time to share with others the awareness of adoles-cent mental health and make a � nancial contri-bution to St Luke’s and Headspace. You are welcome to wit-ness this event and drop a donation in towards the cause. Looking forward to see-ing you on the road soon, God willing.

BENDIGO United spinner Nick Crawford is con� dent his team can match reigning premiers Strathdale-Maris-tians tomorrow in a grand � nal replay of last season.

Despite losing several players, including gun bat Heath Behrens, United, led by star turns from Mark Di Fede (80) and Crawford (3/12 off nine) beat Sand-hurst by 15 runs in Round One of the Bendigo and Dis-trict Cricket Association.

“Sandhurst is strong, and we think that they will � nish

in the top four, so to beat them � rst up was terri� c,” Crawford said.

“The changes that have been forced upon us mean that everyone must do their bit when they get a chance.

“That was the pleasing thing about the weekend.

“Mark Di Fede and Wayne Fidler played really well up the top of the order, and Joel Spry (26 not out) and Zac Mona (13) � nished our innings off.“

Crawford said Maris-tians, and Bendigo, were the

teams to beat this summer.“Maristians and Bendigo

appear to be the benchmarks this season, and this game will be a good test for us early in the season,” he said.

“We certainly know what is needed to compete with Maristians and it is up to us all to play just as well as we did last weekend.”

In other matches Strath-� eldsaye play Huntly/North Bendigo, Bendigo take on Kangaroo Flat, Eaglehawk play Sandhurst and White Hills face Golden Square.

EAGLEHAWK’S Liam Andrews is a boy going places, fast.

The eight-year-old was last week crowned Australian cham-pion at the 2011 Honda Austra-lian Junior MX Championship in South Australia.

Liam won all � ve races to secure the ideal 125 points and the 50cc 7-to-under-9 title.

Before the � rst race had even begun, Liam’s race bike had spark plug problems on the start line, and his shot at the champi-onship was almost over.

But luckily another Victori-an’s father, Scott Adams, came to the rescue and Liam’s bike was ready to go with only seconds to spare.

Liam took off and was sec-ond into the � rst corner, but gained the lead as they exited the corner. He then pulled a handy lead, which he held un-til taking the checkered � ag. The � nal gap was about 29 seconds.

The second race was held in extremely dif� cult and boggy conditions.

The start line was completely covered with water, and the rest of the track heavy thick mud.

Several riders went down at the start, but Liam managed to stay clear of the crash, and found himself second for much of the race. Eventually Liam got past and held on for his second win.

Conditions for the third race were not much better with several riders again going down at the start, but Liam took the inside line into the � rst corner,

and took the early lead. He then continued to extend

his lead, but half way through the race got stuck in a deep rut.

He managed to keep his bike running and get back on, surprisingly still in the lead.

The rest of the race was inci-dent free for Liam, � nishing 36 seconds in front of the rest of the pack.

Weather conditions had im-proved for the fourth race, the track drying up with minimal mud and puddles. Liam took the lead from the start and was never challenged, eventually winning by 24 seconds.

At the � nal day of racing, Liam was extremely nervous. He had a 14-point lead over second place and only needed to � nish

ninth or better to take out the title.

Liam was determined to win the last race and get off to a good start, so much so he monoed off the line and half-way down the 70-metre � rst straight.

He won by 15 seconds and helped the Victorian team se-cure more podium � nishes than any other state for the � rst time.

Another local boy, Brodie James, also competed in the 50cc class.

He was � fth overall going into the � nal race, but ham-pered by bike troubles � nished the titles in eighth position.

Younger brother Carson James also quali� ed for the � -nals. Jake Pfeiffer competed in the 65 and 85cc class.

Liam’s on the move

ROARING SUCCESS: Borough boy Liam Andrews.

GEARING UP: Megan Anderson.

Your horoscopeAries (Mar 20 - Apr 19):Activities involving travel, teaching, education, publication or the internet are given a green light. In the area of relationships, your patience may be short and you might say things you’ll wish you hadn’t. You have a desire to break free from restraints. Perhaps travel in person or via internet will offer a diversion.

Taurus (Apr 20 - May 19):Warning to those on diet and exercise programs: this week it is just too easy to break training. If you mean what you’ve promised to yourself, don’t go anywhere in which you would be in harm’s way. It is a time in which you feel more outgoing and extroverted. Social life is a pleasure.

Gemini (May 20 - June 20):Take up whatever activities you need on a daily basis to resolve or prevent health problems. You may feel a compulsion to clean up files, closets, or other areas of detail. It is one way of organizing your mind. It is a good time to catalogue, classify, and coordinate details for your next project.

Cancer (June 21 - July 21):Your energy level is good. Positive outcomes related to your career or work in the world are reflecting well upon you. Almost anything you set out to accomplish is handled in unusually quick time. You have what it takes to be a warrior on behalf of yourself or others. People will listen to you.

Leo (July 22 - Aug 21):At this time you have the opportunity to present a product of your intellectual creation. If you have done your homework, then this may be a serious accomplishment. Love and social life are favoured. Aspects are not the best for activities concerning the law, travel, or the internet. Back up everything!

Virgo (Aug 22 - Sep 22):Your ruling planet, Mercury, has just changed signs to Leo. This represents a shift of attention from financial matters to focus on communications, neighbours, siblings, and others who are in your daily environment. You may need to consider the needs of your vehicle now. Give it a checkup and a detailing.

Libra (Sep 23 - Oct 22):This is a second major week for you, in which you will be pondering important issues. You are launching a new project in self-definition. Anything new can be intimidating, but remind yourself that you stand on the security of solid research in your field.

Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21):Mercury travels rapidly through your sign between now and the end of October. During this period there likely will be greater emphasis on communications, errands, and other short distance travels. Your mind is sharp as a tack and your communications are clear and precise. It is an especially good time for education, whether teaching or learning.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 20):Your mind is flying with thoughts, details, questions and answers. You want to discuss them, but you definitely do not want someone else to solve your concerns. You seek the balance of a counterpart, one who may debate things without becoming emotional about it.

Capricorn (Dec 21 - Jan 19):Well, here it is. The spotlight is on you now. You can take this opportunity to improve your status in the world. It represents the beginning of a new stage in maturity as you demonstrate the wisdom you have accrued. You may be adding a role as a mentor or teacher to your repertoire.

Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 17):You are attending to responsibilities this week. It is a fairly serious time in which you feel somehow ethically or morally bound to follow through with commitments to the outside world. It is possible you are teaching others what you have learned. If you have prepared you will de� nitely succeed.

Pisces (Feb 18 - Mar 19):The intuitive visionary in you is especially strong at this time. You may serve as the Voice for a greater spiritual purpose if you keep your ego out of the picture. Give to the Greater Whole whatever is within you that needs expression. But if you do this in service of the ego, you could make a mockery of it.

Despite two losses in a row and turmoil in the board room, star player Gabrielle Richards says the team still has spirit

p37

Shining lightBy BEN CAMERON

THE off-court dramas of Kristi Harrower’s contract negotiations have not played a part in the Bendigo Spirit’s 0-2 start to the Wom-en’s National Basket-ball League season, ac-cording to star centre Gabrielle Richards.

Richards, a shining light amid the gloom of two tight losses to Townsville (64-74) and Logan (56-61) on a tough � rst-up road trip last weekend, said a lack of offensive syn-ergy had cost the Spirit, not off-� eld disruption.

“Offensively we haven’t gelled yet.

“Once we gel, we’ll be able to get points ev-erywhere, because we’ve got some great threats on our team, she said.

Despite only � rst hearing about Harrow-

er’s request for a longer contract through the media, Richards said it had no effect on the team’s performance.

“We didn’t know much until it was out in the papers,” she said.

“But when it came

out we had a talk about it at training and knew where she and the board was at, so we weren’t kept in the dark.

“It’s just a majority of it was behind closed doors.

“I don’t know the ins and outs, I have no idea, I’m just happy she’s out playing on the court with us.”

Richards, who

starred with 22 points and 10 rebounds in a seven-point loss to Townsville, said fans shouldn’t read too much into their start.

“It won’t be a true indication of how we’ll travel during the sea-

son,” she said.“It’s not panic sta-

tions just yet.“Our threes weren’t

too crash hot, which is surprising because we’ve got some brilliant shooters in our team.”

Richards was con� -dent the Spirit had the defensive structures in place at least to tackle reigning champions Bulleen tomorrow night.

I don’t know the ins and outs.... I’m just happy she’s out playing on the court with us.she’s out playing on the court with us.
