Dreams and nightmares Murray High School has put on quite a visual show for it’s annual Move-A-Thon. The school’s staff and students brought to life ‘Dreams and Nightmares’ as they set out to raise funds for the school. FOR ALL THE GREAT COSTUMES, TURN TO PAGE 6.
Paddlesteamer sails through council unopposed...
All the rivers run By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE fate of the Cumberoona has remained afloat as AlburyCity votes to put the paddlesteamer back on the Murray. The entire community and cultural committee unanimously backed the recommendation on Monday night to sell the boat to Robbie and Fraser Knowles to operate it commercially in Albury when river levels allow. The Knowleses were behind one of the six expression of interest submissions presented to council for the disposal of the Cumberoona last month. The vote means the vessel could only spend up to four months of the year in Albury due to water levels, before it is sailed downstream to be used on Lake Mulwala and the Murray River at Yarrawonga for the remaining eight months. The Knowleses’ proposal was favoured ahead of other ideas for the vessel that included relocating it to Adelaide Nautical College for training, running it through non-profit community organisations, and basing it downstream at Gehrig Winery, or the Ettamogah Pub dam. The winning proposal was initially favoured by council due to achieving the highest qualitative score, which considered factors including use, heritage impact, and sustainability. It is expected the Cumberoona will be sold to the Knowleses with a price tag of
$30,000. For Robbie Knowles, being able to keep the Cumberoona afloat is something he is quite proud to be taking part in. “It feels fantastic,” he said. “We are originally from Corowa, but we have spent a lot of time in Albury Wodonga and around Noreuil Park and always admired the paddlesteamer.” Mr Knowles said the opportunity to save the vessel was a lucky one. He approached AlburyCity earlier in the year to discuss operating a different vessel commercially in the area, before being informed that expressions of interest for the Cumberoona were being received. “It is in very poor condition, it has been dry-docked for a long time now, but the team and naval architect are quite confident.” The works to get the vessel back on the Murray are expected to take a minimum of 12 months, and the Knowleses certainly aren’t wasting any time. Mr Knowles was on the phone with his naval architect first thing on Tuesday morning after council passed the decision, and said he was eager to begin works as soon as the last of the council processes were finished. The Knowleses have not outlined a budget for restoring the Cumberoona. Meanwhile, Yarrawonga Council is expected to back the move.

After patience, it’s the party
IT MIGHT have tested Albury residents’ patience for a few months, but the wait for a new Kiewa Street has paid off. The city celebrated the official re-opening of the street at the
weekend following its $1.8 million facelift. Saturday’s street party was a fitting way to cap off the major project. For more details, turn to page 3.

STAY INFORMED
Far from over By ERIN SOMERVILLE AT ALMOST 93 years old, Thelma Hill still enjoys socialising and catching up with friends as much as the next spring chicken. A member of the North Albury Senior Citizens Club, Ms Hill was there to cut the cake last Tuesday for the club’s 42nd birthday. While the club might not even be half her age, she said it was part of her secret to staying young. “It’s good to be social,” she said. “It’s the most friendly club.” Ms Hill joined many years ago after her two sisters-in-law, who have now passed away, kept mentioning great things about the club and encouraged her to join. The club plays an important role in keeping many local over 50-year-olds entertained on Tuesdays through activities like euchre, indoor bowls, and afternoon tea. For a $4 membership fee for the year, making friends here all-year around is cheaper than just one beer at the pub, and

John Emery challenges Albury Wodonga councils to plan long term Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE for the city. 130988 residents and 23,000 homes over the next 50 years. Planning for Albury’s future is undertaken through the city’s Community Strategic Plan, Albury 2030. The plan identifies the community’s main priorities for the future and outlines strategies for achieving them. Every council plan or strategy links to Albury 2030 and progress reports are presented to council ev-
ery six months. It covers four main themes including a growing economy, enhanced natural environment, caring community, and a leading community. Ms Squires said AlburyCity also collaborated with Wodonga Council on various opportunities that were mutually beneficial, including major land use planning policies, the Digital Economy Strategy, and tourism.
Street party to celebrate opening BETTER parking, pedestrian friendly, and a great atmosphere. These were just some of the reasons the city of Albury turned the newly completed Kiewa Street’s footpaths into the scene of party to celebrate its official reopening on Saturday. Finishing three weeks ahead of schedule and being completed within budget, AlburyCity’s Engineering and Works Committee chair Cr Henk de Ven said it was a great reason to party. “We want to thank residents and the traders for their patience during the construction period,� he said. “This celebration is a statement that Kiewa Street is certainly open for business, and we’d love our community to come along and support our local traders.� “The crew has done a fantastic job and the new upgraded Kiewa Street looks fantastic. “This has been a $1.8m investment in the heart of our CBD, and we’ve delivered a great outcome for businesses and residents.� The whole community was invited to the celebration, with live music and entertainment, giveaways,

LET’S build a better Albury Wodonga for the future. That’s the challenge Albury Citizens and Ratepayers Movement founder John Emery has put to both local councils following the dismantling of the Federal Government’s Albury-Wodonga Corporation, which focused on developing the region. The corporation will close its doors on 31 December, meaning its planning responsibilities now lie with local councils. Mr Emery said the loss of the program, which began in the 1970s under the Whitlam Government and aimed to deliver a population of 300,000 to the area by 2000, was a loss for the community. “These people thought of things years ahead of its time,� he said. “It was a wonderful experiment that should have been tweaked and not dismantled. “We will become like the rest when we could have had that golden opportunity.� Mr Emery now is appealing to Albury and Wodonga councils to work together to use their planning powers to capitalise on the twin city’s combined potential and build a city for the future.
“My message to Albury Wodonga councils is don’t throw out what’s left of the baby in the bath water. “We really need to start planning for the future and consider rail and lightrail and think years ahead in the future. “I think this is a massive opportunity, but will they take it?� Indeed they already are, according to acting general manager Tracey Squire. “The Albury Wodonga Corporation has not taken a lead role in regional economic development since its charter was amended many years ago,� she said. “As a result AlburyCity, through its community strategic plan and associated activities, is actively working to drive regional growth and will continue to do so. “Planning for the future is one of Albury City’s biggest priorities. “Council is committed to and has undertaken extensive long-term planning for the city and surrounds to ensure that our communities can continue to grow and attract investment.� Ms Squire used an example of the city’s Thurgoona Wirlinga Precinct Structure Plan, which aims to facilitate orderly and sustainable development across the area which will be home to an extra 50,000

The council is hoping the recycling will continue with residents being able from July this year to cash in on their unwanted mattresses by taking them to the Albury Waste Management Centre in exchange for a tip voucher. “Since July we have doubled the amount (of mattresses).� “Mattresses are commonly found in areas popular with illegal dumpers. “This voucher system is keeping unwanted mattresses out of landfill and, more importantly, encourages people to dispose of them properly without dumping them in our parks or reserves.�
Depending on their condition, recycled mattresses are either transported to Melbourne for cleaning and donated to St Vincent de Paul, or are recycled. The council is in the process of establishing a resource recovery centre at the AWMC which will allow recycling to take-place in house and make second-hand mattresses available to the community. Residents unable to transport unwanted mattresses to the AWMC may be eligible for the council’s home collection service. Visit alburycity.nsw.gov.au/ waste to find the eligibility criteria.

ALBURY council is certainly not sleeping on its landfill problems, smashing a milestone last week after recycling more than 5000 mattresses. The result is a big achievement for the city which has been working to reduce mattresses going to landfill since 2011. “They take up the most critical amount of space in landfill,� Albury City’s Team Leader of Waste Services Andrea Baldwin said. “They are quite large items. “We want our landfill here for the long term.�
Albury City’s Team Leader of Waste Services Andrea Baldwin is proud of the city’s efforts Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE to recycle 5000 mattresses like these. 130761

Students dreaming on By ERIN SOMERVILLE ANYONE would be forgiven for thinking they had taken a wrong turn and stumbled into a fantasy land instead of Murray High School last week. There was an invasion of Yip-Yips, vampires, fairies, and even Lego as staff and students got creative and joined in on the fundraising fun. Last Wednesday’s MoveA-Thon and costume parade were part of the high school’s annual Yarrum Festival which sees students spend a week raising funds for the school in many fun and interesting ways. The Move-A-Thon is a centrepiece in the school’s Yarrum Festival featuring a 10 kilometre walk from Gateway Island to Sumsion Gardens in Wodonga before returning to school for a well-deserved barbecue. “It’s been a huge part of Murray High School’s Yarrum Festival,” teacher Erin Salzke-Spurr said. “It’s a great fundraiser.”
The theme for the sixth annual Move-A-Thon was Dreams and Nightmares which put many creative abilities to the test. The festival also continues the fun through events during the week such as a gumboot toss, nail art, face painting and a talent show. “The kids love it, it’s one of the best things on the Murray High School calendar.” The money raised will be directed back into the school for student based projects, many of which are nominated by the Student Representative Council. These projects include seating for outdoor areas, further developing gardens and purchasing data projectors for classrooms. This year the school is planning to create an outdoor barbecue area to be used for various functions such as year group gatherings and orientation days. While the event raises funds, it also helps motivate students to get up and moving as part of a positive activity.

Nominate your street for a free barbecue Barbecues are held on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings during daylight savings months between 6pm and 8pm.
Wodonga Council is looking for Wodonga neighbourhoods to host a free barbecue this summer.
Wrapped up in Christmas joy IT MAY only be mid-November but the Border has already given the Christmas spirit a kickstart with its Christmas Gift Appeal. The appeal was launched in Wodonga Plaza last Wednesday to the sound of the many young local voices of Wodonga Primary School singing songs of Christmas in Australia. The appeal is coordinated by Target and Uniting Care and ensures children don’t wake up on Christmas morning in a home without presents. This is the 15th year of the appeal locally. “It has been amazingly successful in providing an opportunity for local people to help other local people,” local co-ordinator Susan Cheetham said. The statistics show the help is needed to bring some joy to Christmas to children across Australia.
This Christmas it is estimated that nearly 600,000 Australian children will be living in poverty while an additional 40,000 will be living in out-of-home care and away from their families for a range of reasons. “The Christmas Gift Appeal means that local people can assist children in our local communities so that come Christmas morning they wake up to a present under their tree. “It is a small thing to give to others and yet it means so much to so many children right here in the Albury-Wodonga region.” Local students have already placed presents under the tree in Wodonga Plaza to help bring the Christmas spirit to those in need. Border residents can pitch in simply by visiting Albury and Wodonga Target stores.
Come along, meet your neighbours and have some fun. To nominate your street or for more information, please visit wodonga.vic.gov.au/neighbourhood-bbq or contact events co-ordinator Kellie Miller on (02) 6022 9300 or kmiller@wodonga.vic.gov.au

Sun skin on the line
with skin cancer by age 70, adolescents underestimated their skin cancer risk, with one in two rating their chances of developing skin cancer as ‘low’. “It’s wonderful to see teens understanding that a tan isn’t the hallmark of health it was once made out to be,” she said. “However, while most don’t actively seek a tan, we do want them to actively protect themselves. “Skin cancer doesn’t have to be an inevitability. “Take the recommended sun protection measures and the odds of preventing it are in your favour.”
Dermatologist and Honorary Secretary of the Australasian College of Dermatologists Dr Patricia Lowe reminded young people that getting to know their skin was an important part of being sunsafe. “Make a habit of keeping an eye on your skin and getting to know what ‘normal’ is for you. “It doesn’t take long and it can make the difference between early detection and not knowing until it’s too late. “If you notice any changes, see your doctor because early detection of skin cancer almost always means it can be successfully treated.”

“The first phase of the program saw NSW Fair Trading and the Australian Consumer and Competition Commission (ACCC) visit close to 350 retail outlets in February as part of an education campaign about the mandatory labelling standards. “In April, NSW Fair Trading visited 104 retailers and eight importers/distributors. “As a result of those checks, five traders were each issued with $550 penalty notices and 24 traders received formal warnings due to non-compliance.’’ Last month, NSW Fair Trading and ACCC inspectors visited a further 118 retailers with portable pools in stock, plus another 318 retailers that were considered likely to be stocking portable pools. “While the compliance rate for the stores with pools in stock doubled to 65 per cent since February, there is still room for improvement,’’ Mr Mason-Cox said. “Of those inspected last month, 41 traders were noncompliant, 27 traders were issued with 32 $550 penalty notices, 10 traders received formal warnings and one trader remains under investigation.”
NSW Fair Trading Minister Matthew Mason-Cox is reminding families to be vigilant about children’s safety in and around portable pools coming into summer. “Since 30 March a new mandatory safety standard under the Australian Consumer Law has applied to all suppliers of portable pools,’’ Mr Mason-Cox said. “The new Consumer Goods (Portable Swimming Pools) Safety Standard 2013 now requires all portable pools and their packaging to carry warning labels about the active supervision of children and the pools’ appropriate storage when not in use,” he said. “For portable pools 300mm or more in height, pool fencing laws apply and consumers should consult with their local council before purchasing this product.” Mr Mason-Cox said the mandatory standard was introduced to address the drowning risk portable pools posed to young children. “Over the past nine months, NSW Fair Trading has been conducting a series of education and compliance programs to ensure businesses are aware of and complying with the mandatory standards,” he said.

NEW findings from the Cancer Council’s National Sun Protection Survey show that Australian adolescents are developing healthier attitudes towards tanning, but there is still room for improvement. Research released on Monday show that 38 per cent of young Australians aged 12 to 17 years like to get a sun tan compared to 60 per cent 10 years ago. Cancer Council Western Community Programs co-ordinator Mel Nixon said the results were encouraging and that most teens no longer viewed the ‘bronzed Aussie’ as something to aspire to. However, the survey also showed that teens were still not doing enough to protect themselves from the sun. “Twenty-three per cent of adolescents are still sunburnt on summer weekends, a figure which shows no significant change since 2003-04,” Ms Nixon said. The Cancer Council and the Australasian College of Dermatologists are using National Skin Cancer Action Week, 16 to 22 November, to remind young people from NSW that they aren’t invincible and that proper sun protection and skin awareness can be a lifesaver when it comes to skin cancer. This year’s theme of Your Summer. Your Skin. Your Story aims to raise awareness of the harsh effects of skin cancer while encouraging Australians to share their personal skin cancer stories and how it has affected their lives. Ms Nixon said that although two in three Australians would be diagnosed

Renovate Today Aware of asbestos dangers ALBURY City is supporting national Asbestos Awareness Month this November and encouraging residents, builders and renovators to educate themselves about the dangers of asbestos. People are urged to visit www.asbestosawareness.com.au or alburycity. nsw.gov.au/asbestos to find out more about asbestos and what to do if asbestos is found in a property.
AlburyCity’s Team Leader of Building Surveying Warren Jenkinson said it was important that people knew the facts about asbestos. “Many people wrongly believe that only fibro homes contain asbestos. “Asbestos products can most likely be found in any Australian home built or renovated before 1987 even brick, weatherboard, fibro and clad homes,” he said.
“There is no safe level of exposure to asbestos fibres. “With at least one in three Australian homes containing asbestos, many homeowners, renovators, tradies and handymen are putting their health and the health of families at risk when doing home renovations, maintenance and demolition. “That kind of work can release dangerous asbestos dust and fibres that can
be inhaled and lead to asbestos-related diseases including mesothelioma.” Asbestos can be found in kitchens, bathrooms, laundries and under floor coverings, behind wall and floor tiles, in cement floors, internal and external walls, garages, ceilings and ceiling space (insulation), eaves, fences, extensions to homes, and backyard sheds. Mesothelioma is a cancer that
mostly affects the lining of the lungs and develops between 20-50 years after inhaling asbestos fibres. There is no cure and the average survival time after diagnosis is 10-12months. Inhaling asbestos fibres may also cause other diseases such as lung cancer, asbestosis and benign pleural disease.

Rating your fire danger CHECKING the Fire Danger Ratings to understand the daily fire risk this summer is an important way to protect from fire danger. Fire Danger Ratings give information on how dangerous a fire would be if one started, Emergency Management Commissioner Craig Lapsley said. “As the ratings increase, so does your risk of fire,” Mr Lapsley said. “This summer, you could be at risk of uncontrollable fires on Severe, Extreme and Code Red days. “Talk to your household about where you’ll go on these days and when you’ll leave,” he said. Fire Danger Ratings are based on the weather conditions and other factors, such as how much dry vegetation there is. Hot, dry, windy days are the worst weather conditions for fire. Ratings are forecast using Bureau of Meteorology data up to four days in advance, and are declared by fire weather district. The three most important ratings to look out for are Severe, Extreme and Code Red, although fires can break out on days when the ratings are lower. Code Red days are the worst conditions for a grassfire or bushfire and means that if a fire was
to start, it would be uncontrollable. Most houses are not designed or constructed to withstand Code Red conditions. Leaving highrisk areas the night before a Code Red day or early in the day is the safest option. A Severe or Extreme fire danger rating means that if a fire starts and takeshold, it will be unpredictable and fast moving. Leaving early is the safest option for those who live in a high-risk area and whose house is not prepared and not defendable. “Last summer, there were only five days where fire danger spiked at Severe to Extreme levels and there were no Code Red days,” Mr Lapsley said. “Code Red days are rare and serious but fires can still start and run on days of Very High and Severe Fire Danger Rating. “Don’t take any chances this summer - keep your family safe and check the Fire Danger Ratings daily,” he said. Check Fire Danger Ratings at emergency.vic. gov.au, by downloading the FireReady app or by calling the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667. Those who have a hearing or speech impairment can contact the Victorian Bushfire Information Line (VBIL) via the National Relay Service on 1800 555 677.
Top: Check the risk every day. Right: Make time to prepare a plan for this bushfire season.
Understand the warnings to prepare for fiery summer UNDERSTANDING how fire warnings work and how to use them is an important part of preparing for summer in Victoria. “Fire warnings are issued when a fire has started and you need to stay informed and take action,” Emergency Management Commissioner Craig Lapsley said. “There are three different levels of warnings - Advice, Watch and Act, and Emergency Warning. “Warnings aren’t necessarily issued in any order - a fire might start and spread so quickly that the first warning issued could be an Emergency Warning. “Warnings contain specific information which could save your life so it’s important that you read or listen carefully to the warning. “For example, a warning might advise you that roads have been closed and that you need to seek shelter locally.
The risks need to be taken seriously.
“Or it might tell you that you need to leave, but tell you which road is open,” Mr Lapsley said. There are different situations when you might need to monitor and check for fire warnings and updates. On a hot, dry, windy days when fires can start suddenly at any time; On a fire risk day when you’ve left early or are preparing to do so; If you can see or smell smoke in the air and you want to check what’s going on. “It’s your responsibility to understand the different levels of warnings and how to access them,” Mr Lapsley said. “You should never wait to receive an official warning before you leave. “Bushfires can start, spread and become uncontrollable quickly - threatening homes and lives within minutes.

NOVEMBER 16-23, 2014
Message from the Premier This week is Fire Action Week, Victoria’s annual fire planning and preparation week.
Right now is the best time to understand your fire risk and get prepared, not when a fire starts.
Now is the time to increase your understanding of the fire risk where you live, prepare your property, and decide what you’ll do if a fire starts.
What can you do to prepare? Talk to your family about the fire risk where you live and make plans for what you’ll do on hot, dry, windy days. Check the Fire Danger Rating for your area every day and know which Fire Danger Rating is your trigger to act. Understand how to stay informed by accessing warnings and updates, and know how to use them.
Last summer, firefighters responded to more than 40,000 incidents, and 4,600 bushfires and grassfires burned across the state. This year, the season forecast tells us that we’re facing an aboveaverage risk of bushfire and grassfire.
On hot, dry, windy days, fires can start and spread quickly. If the Fire
Danger Rating is Code Red, Extreme or Severe, you’re risking your life if you wait and see. Leaving late means driving your family through smoke, fallen trees and powerlines, and facing the risk of being trapped or worse. Leaving early is the safest option to protect yourself and your family.
Premier Hon Dr Denis Napthine
This week, CFA brigades around the state are opening their doors and getting out and about in their community to talk about getting ready for summer. You can check cfa.vic.gov.au/events for information on what’s happening in your local area.
For more information on how to get prepared for summer, go to emergency.vic.gov.au, or ring the Victorian Bushfire Information Line on 1800 240 667. If you have a hearing or speech impairment, contact the Victorian Bushfire Information Line (VBIL) via the National Relay Service on 1800 555 677. Remember, it’s up to you to take responsibility for your safety and the safety of your family. This summer, leave and live. The Hon Dr Denis Napthine MP Premier of Victoria

Hunger to fight THE Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1, the highlyanticipated third instalment of the blockbuster phenomenon, is released today (Wednesday). This story takes the futuristic chronicle of Katniss Everdeen to a new realm - the Games may have been obliterated for good but the fight to survive is about to intensify. Faced with the most daunting odds - and watched by the eyes of a hopeful nation - Katniss must put into motion courage, strength and empowerment against the all-powerful Capitol. This is the moment when she realises she has no choice but to open her wings and fully embody the Mockingjay symbol. If only to save Peeta, she must become a leader. The story begins with Katniss’s rescue from the destruction of the Quarter Quell. She awakens in a shocking world she didn’t even know existed, the deep, dark underground of supposedly annihilated District 13. She quickly learns of the devastating reality she must face - District 12 has been turned to rubble and Peeta is being held, manipulated and brainwashed by President Snow in The Capitol.

According to director Francis Lawrence The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 dives further into the fabric of Panem and into the story’s most powerful emotions as Katniss and the nation enter a harrowing but transformative time. “Emotionally, Katniss is like a foreigner in a strange land as this story begins,� Lawrence said. “This is the time when she realises she can’t stand by and do nothing. “There has been too much deception and the people Katniss loves are in danger. “She will do whatever it takes to keep them safe. “The stakes have always been high in The Hunger Games but now the entire world opens up. “The games themselves are gone, but threat of oppression now permeates all of Panem.

“This chapter gave us a chance to reveal entirely new locations with amazing action sequences. “It’s a gigantic movie.� In her third and most poignant turn as Katniss, Academy Award winner Jennifer Lawrence relished the chance to portray the character at this heightened juncture as she emerges from distress to take her first steps into leadership. “I was excited for Katniss to come into her own as a leader, but she’s still a very reluctant hero,� Lawrence said. “In the first movie she wanted to save her family. “In the second, she tried to save her friends and herself. “Now, she starts to realise the impact she has on the wider world and that she has a choice to lead this battle for what is right.� Don’t miss tonight’s special midnight premier screening at Regent Cinemas.

Showers of blessings in field THE skies may have opened over the 51st annual Henty Machinery Field Days, but so too did the wallets. Farmers across the region had their prayers answered when around 20mm fell over the thirsty
spring crops last week, boosting profits at the major event as well as morale. With a record number of visitors flooding in on HMFD’s opening day, and strong sales reported right across the event, the small town of

THE Albury Wodonga Islamic community fears it could soon face hostility from residents with the heavy national media focus on Islamic terrorists. The comments come from Islamic Society of Albury Wodonga president Yakub Muhammad who spoke to the Albury Wodonga News Weekly following anti-terror raids on Islamic homes across Australia and a ramped-up national committment to fight the Islamic State, or ISIS. Mr Muhammad said the constant recent media coverage of a small percentage of Islamic extremists, who he said the peaceful local community condemn, threatened to create a fear mongering mentality against all Muslims, particularly in regional Australia. “Regional areas tend to cop it the most because there isn’t as much education or exposure to Muslims,� he said. “All of a sudden people can see someone with dark skin in a turban or Islamic costume or with a head scarf on, and I have specifically seen here some people get scared and some get angry.�" Mr Muhammad, Yakub Muhammad. who has lived in Albury for 27 years, said his sister and wife have recently been abused in a car park by a man for wearing hijabs (scarfs that cover the hair) and were left feeling shaken and too afraid to continue their shopping. His friend’s wife has also reported being abused by a man in Lavington shopping centre for wearing a niqab (veil that covers the face and shows only the eyes), and said she had to publicly defend her decision for wanting to wear one for religious reasons. Mr Muhammad said he is concerned about the effect current international events and media coverage will create, particularly on Albury Wodonga’s approximate 300 Muslim residents. “I’m just waiting to get more abusive calls, I think they are coming big time,� he said. “Islam is about peace, not violence or beheadings, that’s not Islam� he said. Mr Muhammad said he is making an effort to open the doors of the local Muslim community to residents who have any questions or are curious, including holding open days.

DOMESTIC violence should not remain behind closed doors. This is the message local police and support workers are shouting across the city following a rise in reported cases this year. The latest Bureau of Crime Statistics and Research report shows 50 extra cases of domestic violence were reported in Albury during the 12 months to June, 2014, compared to the same period in 2013. The 19 per cent jump means Albury’s latest domestic violence count stands at 310 incidents. With staff at the Women’s Centre for Health and Well-being Albury Wodonga seeing more than this number of women every year, it is almost certain this is only a small fraction of incidents occuring behind closed doors in the local government area. “The statistics don’t reflect how many women and children suffer from domestic violence,� the centre’s health promotion worker Peta Pitman said. The incorporation acknowledges women can occasionally be the instigators of domestic violence themselves, but statistics show the crime is most often committed by males. The centre works with local residents to help them escape domestic violence situations, and provide them with knowledge, options, and support. Many women seek assistance anonomously. “For us, it’s all about wanting women to be safe,� Ms Pitman said. “We work with experts to support them in what way is right for their individual situation.� There have been suggestions that the rise in domestic vioence reports could be a positive indication that it is no longer a crime being kept secret. “In terms of that, we are seeing more confidence with victims report-

THE Border’s music scene is not being given a proper chance to be heard, say local artists. The comments come after NSW Police Minister Michael Gallacher stated earlier this month that the live music industry was dead thanks to the closure of music venues. Local artists say the music scene is well and truly flourishing behind closed garage doors on the Border, but finding avenues to perform live can be tricky. Many local acts find it necessary to travel out of the region and to major cities to showcase their hard work. A heavy emphasis on DJs and pop music culture through programs such as The Voice and X Factor has also been detrimental to up-and-coming musicians, with audiences constantly demanding more than a stripped-down, talented performance, Border artists said. Albury band Midnight Alibi’s singer James Oswald is one of many musicians who spoke to the Albury Wodonga News Weekly, and is eager to see more support for live music. “The music scene here is better than what people think,� he said. “In the last five years there have been that many people starting bands and playing. “There is a lot of need to have a platform to showcase the work.� With many venues preferring to hire cover bands or DJs, some local artists say they feel pushed out of the scene on the Border. “We have both a vibrant music scene with lots of local talent but it is being squandered by the lack of a dedicated live music venue who regularly have bands on,� local musician and sound engineer Jake Mannik said. Local bands say they face further obstacles when they do secure some local stages, having to fork out for a sound engineer and security if none are already provided at the venue. For

as ‘Indi expats’, had full knowledge of the fraudulent conduct and even encouraged it. No evidence has been put forward that Ms McGowan knew of this conduct. Ms McGowan’s media adviser has stated that she will not be making further comments on the incident at this stage. Meanwhile, Voices 4 Indi president Alana Johnson said the group had not yet been contacted by the AEC and denied endorsing fraudulent voting. She further outlined concern that the investigation could deter young voters from heading to the polls. “We only know what we’ve read in the paper, we’ve not had any contact from the AEC,� Ms Johnson said. “Many rural young people leave home to study, travel and work, they are often transient and their family home remains their permanent address. If young people’s place of enrolment is an issue for Indi, then it is an issue for rural electorates across the country. “Any clarification and improvement the AEC can make to the enrolment process that encourages and helps young people to be involved will be welcomed.� Meanwhile, the AEC was unable to outline the consequences for Ms McGowan’s political future if the investigation ruled her campaigners submitted fake votes, but said findings would be released shortly. Acting Electoral Commissioner Tom Roger, who was last week tasked with examining enrolment details, said he was taking the matter very seriously “I have asked for the AEC examination to be given the highest priority,� he said. “These investigations are continuing at the present time. Once the task is completed - which I expect to be soon - if there is any doubt at all regarding the enrolments, I will take further steps, including, if necessary, referral to the AFP.�

INDEPENDENT Member for Indi Cathy McGowan says she fully supports an investigation into electoral fraud after claims many Indi voters in the 2013 Federal Election supplied incorrect residential details. While Ms McGowan stated earlier this week that she had not yet been contacted by the Australian Electoral Commission, she highlighted in a public statement that she welcomed any queries they might have. She first heard of the allegations on Friday. “It’s important the Australian people have the utmost confidence in the AEC and electoral process and I know they will undertake an extensive and professional investigation,� Ms McGowan said. “But we must be mindful these are allegations, so let’s wait and see the results before making a judgement.� Ms McGowan won the seat of Indi in a surprise 439-vote win over Liberal candidate Sophie Mirabella last September through a strong grassroots campaign known as Voices 4 Indi. It is now believed many voters were no longer living in the area at the time of election. The AEC’s new integrity unit is reportedly investigating over 20 potentially fraudulent enrolments by McGowan supporters, whose Indi enrolment addresses fail to correspond with their home addresses in other seats, previous enrolment information, and social media information such as on Facebook and LinkedIn. Ms McGowan agrees that the unlawful declarations should be fully investigated. “An enrolment is a declaration made by an individual to the AEC and it is up to the individual to ensure it is accurate and lawful,� she said.

Homes&Property �� Albury Wodonga
The great in and outdoors IT IS all about wide open spaces inside and out at this delightful property at Tangambalanga. Set on three acres and just a short 800 metres from town, primary and secondary schools, and shops, this place offers the best of country living without the isolation. Fans of open plan living will appreciate the style of this home, which has a sprawling open space encompassing the lounge room, kitchen, and dining area. The huge lounge area is the atmospheric heart of the home, overlooking the spacious front yard and the gorgeous ranges towering overhead. It is complete with a freestanding wood heater and ducted air-conditioning to make it a welcoming space any time of the year. The open-plan electric kitchen offers plenty of space, and has all the latest modern conveniences such as a large
built-in oven, and a massive stove, all overlooking the action of both inside and out. Nearby, the dining space offers plenty of room. There will be no fights over the bedrooms, with the home providing three beautiful large rooms, all with built-in wardrobes and views of the countryside and house yard. The bathroom is a comfortable area of the home, with a deep built-in spa bath guaranteed to offer endless comfort every day. A shower, separate toilet, and vanity all make this bathroom a wonderful addition to the family home. The outdoors is just as great as in, and with so much space and shedding you could go hours without seeing another soul on the property. There is a huge range of sheds, from an 18 metre by 12 metre shed with four access
doors, concrete floor, and power, to a second machinery shed, as well as a double garage with a work storage area. It doesn’t stop there! A triple carport, wood shed, garden shed, dog run, and even chicken pen are the icing on this mouth-watering cake of sheds. The possibilities are endless, whether simply for storage, a work space, or even for a space to call yours and escape to for some peace and quiet. The wonderful outdoor delights continue among the home that is encircled by a gorgeous six-foot wide verandah. Entertainers or those who like to savour the outdoors will simply love the covered outdoor area, offering plenty of space and a built-in barbecue to enjoy all year round. Best of all, the area overlooks a sparkling in-ground swimming pool, making this place an instant summer hit.

IT WAS a quick and dynamic evening on Lavington Sports Ground on Friday as the popular Big Bash Twenty 20 cricket hit off the first match of the season. The charity event organised by Cricket Albury Wodonga saw two big hitting games take the pitch throughout the evening. Defending champions Tradelink Hurricanes are off to a good start, opening their Twenty 20 season on an 8-128 win against newcomers Linde Forklifts Reds (9-127). The bad luck continued throughout the evening for the competition’s newer teams. The night’s second match saw the rookie team 2AY Aces fail to match Insight Clinic Privates’ score of 6-146, after the team was all out for 107. The second match still dished up some excitement for the crowd, with Privates’ Isaac Willet boasting the highest score of the night with 42 runs under his cap, while the team’s star bowler of the night Kane Aren Darcikas taking five for 20. The Ace’s Chris Taylor also made some big hits, racking up 35 runs on the board, however, it wasn’t enough for the team to pull off a win. Cricket Albury Wodonga board member Grant Ball said the charity matches were prov-

ing a big hit. “We had a good crowd,” he said. “It was popular the first couple of times it was run, particularly in December when people have Christmas parties and activities at the matches.” The previous two Charity Big Bash seasons raised more than $70,000 for local charities.This year, money raised will go towards the new Albury Wodonga Regional Cancer
Centre in memory of former local cricketer, Braedon Hensel who passed away in July, aged 22, and to the James McQuillan Future Fund. The Charity Big Bash format will see the teams play two big hitting games each night, on four occasions at Lavington Sports Ground. The next match that was initially scheduled for 28 November has now been brought forward to 25 November, due to Wodonga Gold Cup holiday.

SMASHING a board in half, sparring, and showing mental and physical discipline were some of the difficult feats North Albury taekwondo students had to pass to earn their black belts on Sunday. After years of training, five students gained their first dan black belt, while another achieved his second dan black belt. One student acquired his fourth dan black belt, only one grade short of the highest level achievable in the Albury area. “It’s been a long time coming, it takes four years to get there,” North Albury Taekwondo Academy sabonin (instructor) Tony Hedrick said. “It takes a lot of committment.” The black belt tests can be difficult for students, with some putting in up to four classes a week over the years to earn it. All aspects of the examination on Sunday presented different challenges to each student, but sparring and board breaking can prove to be particularly difficult. “Board breaking can be quite painful. “You see the looks of pain on their faces when they kick a board hard and it doesn’t break, and then they have to turn around and do it again.” Mr Hedrick said the Korean martial art was steadily growing in popularity on the Border, with students aged from six to 58 attending the academy. “People gain strength, co-ordination, fitness, and a strong mental attitude as well as physical.”

Local Sport Winning opening stand By JAMES McNEIL AN OPENING stand of 233 runs by Kade Brown and Nicholas Morris has steered Albury to a stunning 82-run victory over Wodonga Raiders in their Cricket Albury Wodonga Round Five clash at Bilson Park on Saturday afternoon. The partnership was one of the biggest opening stands seen in CAW with Morris scoring 161 and Brown 145 in a stunning display of batting and part of a busy weekend of cricket which saw two rounds of cricket played over two days. Brown has already been in the highlights reel this season and shapes as one of the competition's best players. Morris was yet to make a century prior to Saturday but managed to bat for almost the entire innings. Morris hit 12 boundaries and six sixes in his score while Brown’s 145 was made up of 12 boundaries and nine sixes. The pair helped Albury to 378, a score which was unattainable as Raiders slumped to be all out for 151. Tassell, Sawyer and Cooper were the chief destroyers as they picked up three wickets each. Tallangatta pulled off the upset of the round accounting for Wodonga at Rowen Park.

Picture: ADAM WILSON The Bushies batted first and compiled 224 with handy digs from Nathan Thompson (73) and James Weighell (54). The best of the bowlers was James Tonkin who took 5/39 from his seven overs. In reply, Robbie Jackson was the top scorer for the bulldogs with 62 as late innings efforts from Dan Dixon (29) and Jack Craig (28) weren’t quite enough to get them home.
Captain Matt Armstrong was the best with the ball for the Bushies with 3/35 off his 10 overs. Belvoir posted 168 batting first at Kelly Park to comfortably beat New City who were bundled out for 100. John Spencer continued his good form of late with 41 and Cameron Lodding also chipped in with 56. Darcy I’Anson and Callum and Doulton Langlands grabbed two wickets each.
Gruelling rides ahead of races
Peter Cook grabbed 4/14 off his 10 in restricting the Phoenix to all out 100 with Mitch O’Brien top scoring with 20. At Lavington, Panthers Oval East Albury managed to chase down Lavington’s target of 155 for the loss of four wickets. Batting first, Lavington managed to compile 153 with Sam Harris top scoring with 45 and AB Mackinlay supporting him with 39. Cameron White was the star with the ball for the crows claiming 4/24 off 9.4 overs while Dylan Weeding effected four dismissals behind the stumps. In the chase, the Crows took 37.3 overs to chase down the total with James McNeil (74) and Hayden Coulson (33no) the top scorers. At Bunton Park, North Albury were bowled out for just 67 by St Patricks. Heath Naughton (4/19) and Kane Arendarcikas (3/3 off 5.1) were the main destroyers. Ash Borella and David Farrell shared the top score for the Hoppers with 13. In reply St Pats made quick work of the total with Nicholas Flood scoring 31no. Meanwhile, the teams all backedup on Sunday for Round Six of the CAW competition. Wodonga batted first at Les Cheesley oval and were 7/166 at the end
of the 26 over rain-affected first innings. Trent Ball scored 57 and Robbie Jackson supported him with 52 whilst Zac Simmonds and Matt Rhook took two wickets each. In reply, Cameron Lodding scored 35 to be Belvoir’s best while Leigh Collins and Beau Kennedy took three wickets each. Albury having smashed a score in excess of 300 the day prior failed to replicate their success after being bowled out by St Pats for 119 at Xavier. Kade Brown was again the top scorer with 29 while Jon Shaw produced a scintillating spell of 6/13 off 7.2 overs to wrestle the match in St Pats favour. In response, Luke Restall and Neil Smith got the home team off to a solid start before a middle order collapse threatened to bring them undone. Fortunately for St Pats, they passed Albury’s score for the loss of seven wickets despite Grant Wells’ haul of 3/15 off 10. Wodonga Raiders and Lavington played a 32 over match in which raiders finished their innings at 8/86 at LPO. At Urana Road Oval New City batted first and ended up 2/162 off their 42 overs against North Albury. Ryan McGrath was the best for the Phoenix with three wickets. East Albury and Tallangatta will play their round six match later in the year.

WITH only eight weeks until the Mars Australian Road Cycling Championships in Ballarat, Border cyclists are deep into their preparation to compete against some of the sports best. Raced over three events, an Individual Time Trial, Criterium (street race) and Road Race, the championships will see the best in young Australian talent in the Under 23 racing and the rock stars of the sport in Elite events. While much of the focus will be on Tour De France winner Cadel Evans competing in one of his last events, the Border riders will be looking to benchmark themselves against the World Tour Professionals and achieve some personal milestones. Top Albury rider Neil Vander Ploeg has enjoyed a solid year of racing on the Australasian circuit with the Avanti Team and is in excellent form. Recently returned from a week’s racing in New Zealand’sTour of Southland, Neil will be looking to improve on his career best 4th race. An excellent all round rider, Neil possess a blistering sprint at the end of a tough race and has a genuine opportunity to surprise on the day. Another Albury rider building towards a solid result in the Elite Men’s event is Brendan Washington of the Full Cycle Team. With an impressive ride in last year’s event, Brendan has enjoyed an excellent season and is in top form after enjoying stage podiums in the gruelling Tour of New Caledonia. With a reputation for hard and aggressive racing, Brendan makes his own luck in races, often instigating early breakaways from the pack and animating races. In the Woman’s Elite events, Wodonga’s Taryn Heather is a genuine contender in her specialist event the Individual Time Trial as well as the Road Race. Based in Europe racing for Switzerland’s BiglaTeam, Taryn has raced the full European season of World Tour events, and has returned home in career best condition. The change to a tougher Individual Time Trial course in this year’s event has Taryn motivated and hard at work on the roads and the gym with an Australian title in her grasp. The Bended Elbow Team will also have a number of riders at the event to gain experience with Declan Gregory, Gerard Wild, Charly McMillan and Ryan Allen lining up in Individual Time Trial and Road Race events.
