Record crowds for the races
The 2015 Telstra Business Centre Wodonga Gold Cup drew its largest crowd ever on Friday since it became a half day public holiday, cementing its status on the city’s social calendar. As more than 6000 locals and visitors to the Border headed through the turnstalls, it was four-year-old gelding Master Reset who took home the coveted $90,000 cup in front of a strong crowd.

Double stabbing By ERIN SOMERVILLE WODONGA police have been left appalled at a double stabbing that left two people in hospital following a fight between neighbours in a suburban street last weekend. As of Tuesday morning, one person remains in The Royal Melbourne Hospital, while another is still in Albury Base
Hospital -both with non-life threatening injuries- following the stabbing that occurred around 10.15pm on Saturday on Nicole Crescent, just around the corner from St Monica’s Primary School. A 26-year-old man was arrested at the scene on Saturday and will face Wodonga Local Court on 9 December, on charges of stabbing, intention to cause grievous bodily harm, and affray.
A 24-year-old female was arrested on Sunday and will face the same charges in court in February. The brawl broke out in the front yard of the two neighbouring residences on Saturday night, with up to eight people involved in the fight before emergency services were called to the scene. It is reported that most of those in-
volved carried weapons, including knives, baseball bats and metal poles. Reports have emerged that children had been at the scene or nearby at the time of the brawl. Forensic services were on scene at Nicole Crescent on Sunday collecting evidence, including samples from bloodstained items that had been left on site.
Wodonga Detective Sergeant Graeme Simpfendorfer said police were shocked the dispute between neighbours escalated so violently. “To have this many people involved in a regular dispute that’s escalated quickly is unbelievable to see,” he said. “To have ended up with this result is just unbelievable.”

Life-saver offers peace of mind By ERIN SOMERVILLE A NEW defibrillator has been installed at the Thurgoona Men’s Shed to help put the blokes’ minds at ease as they continue on with their work, knowing help is nearby. Thurgoona Men’s Shed has over 60 members, with around half of them being elderly men. Five of the members have had open heart surgery, and several others have suffered from strokes. Thurgoona Men’s Shed president Bruce Dyce said having a life-saving defibrillator on site made sense, with numbers at the organisation continuing to grow. “It’s a life-saving item,” he said. Members of the Men’s Shed have been trained to use the latest addition to the shed, with other Men’s Sheds across the region having also just installed one or seeking funds to obtain one. Mr Dyce was thankful for the sponsors who helped the Thurgoona Men’s Shed buy the $1650 defibrillator, including Link Real Estate, Kinross Hotel, Maximum Wealth Strategies, National Seniors, and Ibis Styles Albury Lake Hume Region. The Thurgoona Men’s Shed is an increasingly popular asset to the region, with the organisation starting seven years ago with seven members, to now 60 members enjoying the shed’s three weekly sessions and more members signing up each week. With ties to beyondblue, Men’s Shed organisations help get men out of the house, keep busy, and encourages socialising, which helps with both their physical and mental health and well-being. Many of the works the men create are donated to local causes, such as schools and hospitals. A Men’s Shed exhibition will be held on 12 December, at the Albury Showground, for those interested in learning more about the organisation.

CEO injured in staircase fall
Cell-out for gaol By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE historic Beechworth Gaol has been sold to a private Sydney-based property development company at an auction on Friday. The gaol was sold under the hammer for an undisclosed sum, after bidding exceeded $1.75 million. Albury Wodonga NewsWeekly contacted the reported successful bidder Dunnet Properties Group for comment following the sale, but a spokesperson was not prepared to make public comment at the time. The sale has disappointed some members of the Beechworth community who tried to keep the building in local hands by putting $520,000 on the table through the Australian Centre for Rural Entrepreneurship (ACRE). ACRE Co-founder and CEO Matt Pfahlert said ACRE aimed to build thriving rural communities by developing young entrepreneurs, so the site, with its significant heritage, hospitality, entertainment, tourism and retail appeal, would have been perfect. Mr Pfahlert said he went to Friday’s auction with pledges of
Wednesday, 2 December, 2015 Page 3

$400,000 and by the time the auction finished he had $520,000. He said he was interested to speak to the new owner. “We had such a strong interest in our efforts to secure the site that we’ll provide this feedback to the new owner, especially as it relates to the old walled section of the gaol,� he said. “We’re interested in a sustainable future for the historic part of the gaol, with a community benefit involved.� ACRE was keen to bid for the site but didn’t have enough time to raise the required finance to meet the expected $2 million price tag. The gaol was put on the market a decade after a developer bought the prison from the State Government for $1.7 million. It is well known historically as the site where Ned Kelly was locked up twice in the 1870s and again during his committal hearing for murder in 1880, as well as the incarceration site of crime boss Carl Williams. The site has approval for conversion into 24 units.
A WELL-KNOWN Albury businessman remains in a critical and unstable condition after sustaining serious head injuries early on Tuesday morning. SS&A Club CEO Tim LeVesque, 45, was found by emergency services at the bottom of a stairwell in a Dean Street hotel suffering serious head injuries. Early investigations suggest he may have fallen from the top of the staircase to the concrete floor below. He was taken to Albury Base Hospital, where he remained in a critical and unstable condition. A crime scene was established and police from Albury were conducting a full investigation. The SS&A Club has released a statement and said it was saddened by the news. “At this early stage our immediate concerns are with Tim’s family and the staff of the SS&A Club,“ a spokesperson said. “The board and management are liaising closely with hospital staff for updates on Tim’s condition.“

New RFS trucks roll in for fresh fire season NEW Rural Fire Service (RFS) fire stations and fire trucks will be delivered to the Border as Albury electorate received a slice of $5 million in bushfire protection money. The local investment is part of a wider $314.6 million allocated to the Rural Firefighting Fund in the NSW Government’s 2015/16 budget. A new heavy bushfire tanker will be placed at Jerilderie Brigade headquarters, a new category one fire truck will go to Lavington Brigade, a logistical operations support vehicle will be delivered to the Urana Group, a new category seven crew cab fire truck will go to Splitters Creek Brigade, and Brocklesby will receive a refurbished category one crew cab fire truck as part of the funding allocations.

a key role in keeping residents safe. “The devastating effects of bushfires are never far from our minds, particularly in the lead-up to summer,� he said. “It’s great to see that 11 local RFS brigades/ units will benefit from this funding to support their efforts in keeping our community safe. “These new facilities will allow our volunteers to continue to be supported with the latest technology and equipment while they assist their local community in times of need.� Superintendent Patrick Westwood, District Manager Southern Border Team, said the new vehicles and stations are vital for protecting the bushfire-prone interface with the local community. “We will also continue to work with councils to develop local projects throughout the region,� Supt Westwood said.
A 34-YEAR-OLD man was hospitalised after being bashed in Wodonga by two men on Friday night. The man, from Melbourne, was in Wodonga visiting family before he was assaulted in an alleyway between High and Church streets. The Melbourne man sustained serious facial injuries to his eye and was taken to Albury Base Hospital, and is expected to be transferred to Melbourne for further medical attention. Police released CCTV images from a taxi of two men who are believed to be linked to the assault, taken moments before it occured (see below). The incident occurred about 10.50pm on Friday, and police are encouraging any witnesses or anyone with information to come forward or call Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000.

Cash splash for Girl Guides ALBURY Girl Guides and Lavington Scouts will be among eight organisations across the Albury electorate to benefit from state community infrastructure funding. The funding has been provided under the NSW Government’s Community Building Partnership program. A total of $91,472 will go to Albury Girl Guides for asbestos removal and recladding of the Albury Guide Hall while $7,960 will be used to re-surface the Scout Hall in Lavington.
In Culcairn, $40,000 slice of funding will used to improve and expand Culcairn Early Childhood Centre’s Indoor Learning Area while Corowa Preschool will see $30,000 to extend the existing building and improve security and develop a parent support room. Other funding includes $7,500 for an industrial dishwasher at Tumbarumba Women’s Bowling Club, $5,000 for stage lighting at the Morundah Community Centre stage, $7,000 to develop a Urana Youth Adventure Park, and $9,450 for the construction of
weatherproof shelters for tiered seating at the Tumbarumba Showgrounds. Albury MP Greg Aplin said he was delighted that the NSW Premier Mike Baird had approved the roll out of these local projects as part of more than 1000 throughout NSW. “There was a strong level of interest from the community for the available funds, with almost 3,000 applications received across NSW,” Mr Aplin said. “Local businesses and construction jobs will benefit from this community infrastructure.”

Wodonga’s golden glow By ERIN SOMERVILLE THE Wodonga Gold Cup is proving to be an increasingly popular highlight on the city’s social calendar, with the halfday public holiday event drawing its biggest-ever crowd on Friday. A total of 6131 racegoers flocked through the gates for the 2015 event - up from last year’s crowd of 4772. Wodonga and District Turf Club general manager Tom O’Connor said the figure was
an indication the event was being embraced by the city. Many more packages had also been sold prior to this year’s event compared to 2014. “The first year was a great success and gave us a platform to build our race day on,” he said. “There were a lot more businesses coming on board with the holiday this year. “We’re hoping it will be even bigger again in 2016.” While Mr O’Connor admits
the club is still learning to cater to such a large crowd, he said there was an overwhelming amount of positive feedback from those who attended the day. “We had fantastic feedback from businesses and the crowd that they enjoyed the day.” Many of those who attended travelled from out-of-town including neighbouring regional towns such as Benalla, Wangaratta, and Yarrawonga, as well as the metropolitan centres of Sydney and Melbourne.

chamber’s survey showed 75 per cent of local businesses supported the three-year trial. While some hospitality and retail businesses are facing the burden of penalty rates that come with the racing holiday, many local businesses have been won over by the local event. “I spoke to a large manufacturing business on cup day and they loved the idea,” Mr Squire said. “On Melbourne Cup a lot of people want to take the Monday and Tuesday off, but the Wodonga Cup gives them a long weekend without that extra day off.”

THE Wodonga Gold Cup halfday public holiday has been met with mixed reactions by the city’s business community. Friday’s race meet marked the second year the city replaced the Melbourne Cup holiday with the Wodonga Gold Cup holiday as part of a threeyear trial. While many businesses made the most of the holiday, booking out marquee packages, the Wodonga Chamber of Commerce reported not all business were winners. “The feedback has been mixed,” Wodonga Chamber of
Commerce business manager Bernie Squire said. “Some of the traders who opened because of the business they are still have a preference to have the holiday on Melbourne Cup Day. “A lot of businesses are making their own decision within their own workforce.” Mr Squire said the chamber had marked the half-day public holiday as an upcoming discussion point on its agenda to begin gathering data and feedback before the three-year trial concludes.

Kate’s winning eye for art By ERIN SOMERVILLE WHEN artist Kate Gorman entered her work into the 2015 Arts Wodonga Hume Bank Acquisitive Contemporary Art Award, she didn’t think she would take out the award for the second year in a row. Gorman’s artwork, Inlet, was selected ahead of 28 finalists for the $5000 prize, sponsored by the Hume Bank. The dreamy artwork that playfully uses colour is inspired by her love of the water, and memories of growing up on the Central Coast. After winning last year, Gorman gave herself little chance of taking out the 2015 contemporary art title, the only award for artists in the Albury-Wodonga region. “I was quite honoured when I was selected two years in a row and then to win, it was a great thrill.” Living on the banks of the Ovens River, Ms Gorman said the exhibition was a wonderful opportunity for the region’s many artists to showcase the quality of their work. “It’s a very high calibre competition,” she said. “It’s an honour to be just selected as a finalist.” The awards were judged by Amanda Gibson - creative arts recovery facilitator for the Mitchell, Macedon and Hume region, from Regional Arts Victoria - and announced last Friday. Art Space Wodonga curator Simone Nolan is encouraging the public to see the exhibition. It features contemporary 2D and 3D contemporary works,

INDIGO’S newest mayor James Trenery has targeted working effectively alongside rate capping as one of his biggest priorities during his term. Cr Trenery was elected as Indigo’s first Yackandandahbased mayor since 2004 on Thursday, after former mayor Bernard Gaffney announced he would not be seeking reelection. The new mayor narrowly
secured the position with a 4-3 vote win over Jenny O’Connor. Cr Trenery, who has two children and has lived in Yackandandah for 13 years, said he had decided to put his hand up for the role two months ago. With a background in small business and management, Cr Trenery has served as chairman of the finance committee for the last two years. He said he was looking forward to working with the shire through some of the changes
being made in Victoria. “’We have got rate capping coming up in Victoria and have worked hard with the budget preparing for that,” he said. “It’s not going to go away so we have to go with it.” Cr Trenery said he was also eager to see more conversation between the shire’s chambers of commerce. Tangambalanga’s Peter Croucher has been elected deputy mayor.

Chronic pain in the arts By ERIN SOMERVILLE PAIN and art have long been known to co-exist, as Albury Wodonga Health showcases in its latest exhibition 'Pain in the Arts’. The exhibition is hosted by the Albury Wodonga Health Chronic Pain Management Program to celebrate the 20-year anniversary of the program at the Wodonga Hospital. The exhibition opened on Saturday at the Creators Artspace, Gateway Island Wodonga to show how pain can often be the catalyst to great and positive artistic pieces. As part of the program participants are encouraged to create a piece which expresses their experience. The displayed art work is a collection from previous program participants, and represents their chronic pain experience and optimism about their future following positive changes brought about by participation in the program. “The artwork is a powerful tool for expressing feelings and changes to an individual’s life, that many may have difficulty articulating", program manager Dr Esther Langenegger said. The chronic pain management program aims to improve participants’ quality of life by increasing their capacity for activity, reducing levels of distress and improving levels of functioning.

As Wodonga continues to grow, residents are being asked for their input. 140838 Picture: ADAM WILSON
Have a say in how Wodonga grows WODONGA Council is asking for public comment on the draft Wodonga Growth Strategy. The draft strategy represents the council’s vision, outlining how the city could grow and change to meet forecasted growth up to 2036 and beyond. As one of the fastest-growing regional cities in Victoria, Wodonga is expected to double its population within 25 years and has the capacity to accommodate an ultimate population of up to 100,000 persons. Wodonga mayor Anna Speedie said enhancing the existing liveability and prosperity of the city as it grew and
changed were the overarching ideals that underpinned the draft strategy. “We encourage the community to have a say because this will determine not only the way we live in Wodonga in our future, but the decisions we make today will also greatly affect the future of our children’s children,” Cr Speedie said. “It is a pivotal document which endeavours to outline our vision of Wodonga going forward, bringing all future planning together. “It is a draft, there is still a lot of work to do, and we want to hear from as many people,
from across the community, as possible to ensure it truly reflects future needs and desires.” The draft document will be on exhibition for 28 days and a report outlining recommendations and changes is expected to go before the January 2016 meeting of council. Have your say by looking at copies of the draft document at Wodonga Council’s Hovell Street offices and other community venues or online at makewodongayours.com.au before 17 December. A series of information sessions are also planned to be held at locations around the city.

Art is packing ’em in By ERIN SOMERVILLE ALBURY’S upgraded art gallery has drawn in almost the entire annual visitor numbers of its predecessor in the two months since it’s been opened. The Murray Arts Museum Albury (MAMA) has welcomed more than 20,000 visitors since it opened on 2 October. The former Albury Regional Gallery had just 24,000 visitors comparatively for all of 2014. MAMA director Jacqui Hemsley said to hit the 20,000 visitor mark in just two months exceeded all expectations. “I thank the Albury and broader community for embracing MAMA the way it has,” Ms Hemsley said. “If you haven’t been to MAMA yet, please come and see us. And if you have been, please come again because MAMA is constantly changing.” So who are these thousands of people flocking to see MAMA? Figures show 43 per cent have been female guests, 33 per cent male, and 19 per cent have been children. Locals are proving a strong supporter, with 70 per cent of visitors so far being local and 30 per cent from out of town. People have travelled from Melbourne, Sydney, and Ballarat specifically to see MAMA. The gallery is also proving a hotspot for students, with

were outstanding and urged residents to take their summer holiday visitors to MAMA. “I thank all the MAMA staff for their hard work and dedication to making this new art mu-
seum a success for our community,” Cr van de Ven said. The figures come in the lead up to two large exhibitions that will feature at MAMA over summer, including ‘Impres-
sions of Paris’, that will see works by Lautrec, Degas, and Daumier, as well as being the only venue in the southern hemisphere to host ‘Marilyn: Celebrating an Icon’.
A $1 MILLION dollar redevelopment of Lavington Sports Grounds could be on the cards if its application for state funding is successful. The proposal has been placed on the NSW Government’s shortlist of 32 projects, standing out from 413 eligible expressions of interest received for the NSW Government’s ClubGRANTS Category 3 funding program. Mr Aplin said he was thrilled the project was shortlisted for a share of up to $8 million available for upgrading sport and recreation facilities. “The NSW Government is committed to investing in sport and recreation facilities for everyone to enjoy,” Mr Aplin said. “This round of ClubGRANTS Category 3 is in addition to further funding rounds for emergency relief facilities and cultural infrastructure for which applications will soon be called.” Mr Aplin said the EOIs had been assessed by an independent committee comprising Northern NSW Football, Football NSW, NSW Rugby League, Country Rugby League, Netball NSW, Cricket NSW and Sport NSW representatives. Full applications will be assessed by a committee comprising government and sports representatives and independent chair Mike Colreavy. Successful projects will be announced early next year.

Vine and her accomplices may feel warm and fuzzy but the rest of us do not, and never, ever will. Wake up Australia, and stand up, and grow up. We should not worry what the rest of the world thinks - only the majority counts, that is if we claim to be a democratic country. Referendums are the only answer, and then we will only have ourselves to blame, not do-gooders, and the bleeding hearts, that always duck for cover when things go wrong. Bill Whitham, Tallangatta.
Some helpers DENISE M. Cameron (Letters, 18 November) sounds anguished at the loss of life she assumes is happening at Fertility Control Clinics. She claims the Helpers of God’s Precious Infants have 'saved’ the lives of 300 babies over 23 years. Could the pro-life lobby consider how it looks to this reader? Firstly, put aside the illogical fluff and rhetoric about revenue, MPs' intent and caring canines. Then look at the argument Cameron is making: “This work of 'God’s helpers’ is threatened by the proposed amendment to Victorian law. The exclusion zone will effectively stop them offering 'help and hope’ to clients going to the clinic. Possibly more clients will attend and maybe as a result their 'helping’ will suffer a setback. That is how I read it. Now the interpretation I draw is that they think their God is one who is incapable of preserving the life (a soul) that leaves its vehicle before having lived a life. May I suggest they give God credit to direct that life into another new foetus in need of life! God being generally accepted as compassionate, loving, all-knowing, all-powerful, all-wise. I suggest that we respect the God we worship by respecting our fellow human. The law reform in Victoria is long overdue. May it also happen in NSW. There has been a problem locally for years. A.R. Simmons, Albury.

REGARDING Erin Somerville’s article in NewsWeekly on 18 November, headed ‘Compassion needed in war on terror’, there wasn’t much compassion shown by the terrorists in Paris, London, Sydney, New York, or anywhere else immigration went wrong, and was forced on the citizens. It seems to me the same old bleeding hearts and dogooders still want to feel warm and fuzzy again while bleating out ‘Look at us, aren’t we kindhearted?’. I’m afraid I agree with Pauline Hanson and always have, and always will, ‘maintain the rage’. There is no such thing, as some deadly reptiles will bite and others will not. It’s best to steer clear of them, and keep them out of one’s backyard for safety. It has always been bandied about that terrorists would never, ever come by leaky boats to do mischief. They do, and they did, and will keep doing it. If our government goes against the majority of the people’s wishes and still imports into our country people that could be terrorists, and they do shoot and blow up Australians, the government should stand trial for murder and treason against its people, being accessory after the fact. Nobody ever stands up and states to the people: ‘We were wrong and we are sorry for what we have done’. How does closing the door on terrorists simply be a victory for terrorists? I thought if a person had no deadly reptiles in their backyard, they would never be bitten by one. Our government must never, ever listen to the ‘pious pathetic people’, that seem to always be the squeaky wheel needing the oil, to talk rubbish. We all heard the German Prime Minister Angela Merkel state she would take these asylum seekers in Europe - ‘but she forgot to ask the people’. Let’s hope when the serpent rears its ugly head and people die, she will take the blame, because Germany and other states are in for quite a shock in the future - their kind-heartedness will kill others. Meanwhile back in Australia, Penny Egan-

Racing colours and cup of gold By ERIN SOMERVILLE ALL eyes may have been on the track on Friday, but there was plenty of colour, fashions, and fun happening at the Wodonga and District Turf Club.

make a lucky punt. Photographer ADAM WILSON was out and about to capture all the action of the Telstra Business Centre Wodonga Gold Cup.

Festive cheer with cheese THERE’S nothing more reliable, easy and crowd-pleasing than cheese when entertaining, and Australia is home to some of the best producers in the world. With the festive season on our doorstep and the inevitable increase in cocktail parties, long lunches and Sunday afternoon drinks, The Dairy Kitchen has put together a guide with everything you need to know to impress your guests with cheese from our own dairy regions these holidays. 1. Variety is key: Serving up the perfect cheese platter is all about nailing the texture and flavour combinations. Three cheeses on a platter is a good rule of thumb; choose something soft, something strong and something hard (like brie, blue and cheddar). Likewise with the accompaniments, go for something crunchy, something sweet and something tangy (to refresh the palate). Try like nuts, fruit and pickles or apple for the perfect balanced cheese board. 2. Buy Australian: Show your support for Australian producers and choose Australian cheese this Christmas. Whether you find it at your local farmers market, from your favourite cheesemonger or at the supermarket, there is a locally produced cheese out there to suit every palate. 3. Ripe cheese: Cheese is a bit like fruit in that it changes with the season and should be consumed when ‘ripe’ for optimal flavour and texture. Ask your cheesemonger for their recom-
mendation on what’s ripe and ready for eating. Make sure you ask to taste it too! If you’re at the supermarket, look for cheeses within a week or so of their best before date as this is usually when they’re at their peak. When choosing whole wheels of soft ripened cheeses like brie or camembert, test it like you would an avocado, - if it feels slightly soft, it’s probably going to be ripe and oozy when you serve it. If it’s hard, then it probably needs a little longer to mature. 4. Pantry prep: Interesting accompaniments don’t require too much effort and most pantries are usually packed full of the perfect things to jazz up your cheese board. Think honey on blue cheese or balsamic glaze on a wedge of parmesan. Walnuts go well with almost all cheeses, and add a flourish with fresh or dried fruit, pickled vegetables or a sprinkling of dukkah. 5. Keep it in the fridge! It’s handy to have some cheese on hand for the inevitable and spontaneous dropins throughout the festive season. Cheese is the perfect ‘go to’ when you’re unprepared as it takes minimal effort for maximum impact and flavour. Hard varieties like parmesan and cheddar can be stored in the fridge for long periods and they match with just about everything in your pantry. 6. The room temperature rule: The cardinal rule of serving cheese is to
always serve it at room temperature, so take it out of the fridge about an hour before serving (20 to 30 minutes if it’s hot). You can arrange the cheese board and cover it with a barely damp tea towel to keep the cheese from drying out. Fresh cheeses like mozzarella, burrata, ricotta and labne should be served cool. 7. Don’t waste! So long as it’s not sweating away in the sun, there’s no reason to waste any leftover cheese. There are plenty of things you can do with that little nugget leftover at the end. Ricotta can be sprinkled on spaghetti, cheddar can be grated for sandwiches, and camembert can be served over chicken. This of course assumes there are leftovers to be saved.
Above: The Blokes Cheeseboard is a real treat. 147709
Left: A Christmasinspired cheese board. 147709
8. Keep it fresh: once you’ve used a portioned cheese, wrap it up in some baking paper and put it in the fridge in a container with a loose fitting lid. Don’t forget to keep those more stinky cheeses in a different container! Return small whole cheeses like camembert and brie to their original packaging and pop them in a container in the fridge. 9. Platters: If you don’t have a wooden serving board, add it to your wish
list this Christmas! You can also get creative with your presentation as cheese looks great on just about every flat surface, enamel trays, a cake platter or even a washed floor tile will do the trick. 10. Knives: One knife per cheese, please! No one likes bits of blue cheese stuck to the brie. If you don’t have enough cheese knives, use pate or butter knives for the softer cheeses.

AS A person ages, they may choose to look at alternative accommodation arrangements to living in their own home and one option that may be considered is a retirement village. When choosing a new home, it is important to do your research, as there is sometimes confusion between aged care homes and retirement villages. Aged care homes are designed to cater for those with permanent high-level care needs, while retirement villages are designed to provide for an enhanced lifestyle offering independent living and at the same time providing some low care services when needed. Megan McGrath from Generations Aged Care Advice sat down with Murray Gardens comanager Chiquita Walsh to discuss the advantages of retirement village living. “It’s about lifestyle - retirement is choosing a lifestyle for yourself,” Ms Walsh said. While many residents live in their own units, they can also take advantage of the services and activities the village provides, from gardening, to social activities, the on-site restaurant, and a sense of security and community.
Megan McGrath and Chiq Walsh talk about senior living options in the picturesque gardens at Murray Gardens. 147729 Picture: ERIN SOMERVILLE There are also apartments on offer for those who are a little less independent or mobile and need more assistance with daily activities such as cooking and washing. “The only thing that is going to stop a person from living their desired lifestyle is if their health starts to change, which is the same thing that applies as when you are living at home.” It’s when real health problems begin and residents require constant health care, that options such as retirement villages become less suitable and permanent aged care comes into play. For those who aren’t sure of whether they are ready for retirement living yet, Murray Gardens offers a “try before
you buy” service, where you can stay in an apartment and experience the village lifestyle to see if it suits their needs before signing on the dotted line. Many new residents use this service before deciding to stay permanently, “they find they really enjoy the lifestyle and the community atmosphere.” Ms McGrath and Ms Walsh agree that sometimes people find that they have discovered the benefits of retirement living too late in life, with their most active and social years already gone. If you’re thinking about downsizing or wanting to discuss your retirement living options, it’s important to seek advice.

Seven tips for buying the right sunnies ‘TIS the season to slip on the sunblock, slap on a hat and slide on the sunnies. Sunglasses don’t just look good, they save sight. Most people choose a certain style of sunglasses to, amongst other things, make a fashion statement. However, there’s nothing that makes a better statement about sunglasses than their level of UV protection. “UV light can do serious damage to your eyes, short and long term,” said Dr Gerard Sutton of the Vision Eye Institute in Sydney. “It’s devastating to lose any amount of vision but a sight issue from sun damage can be permanent in some cases.” Vision loss related to UV light exposure is preventable so it makes sense for people to pay attention to the wellbeing of their eyes when in the sun, just like other parts of their body. What can the sun do to my eyes? “The most common shortterm eye disorder is called acute photo keratopathy. “This is literally sunburn to your cornea (the surface of the eye) and will cause redness, inflammation and soreness. It may also result in temporary vision loss,” Dr Sutton said. However, harmful UV light can cause a number of other eye issues, including: Cataracts. It’s estimated that 10 per cent of cataract cases are
lenses will offer the best colour perception, which also helps when driving on a sunny day. 3. Bigger is better. They might not be everyone’s idea of fashionable, but wrap-around sunglasses are the best for extended outdoor periods, like on a bushwalk. Add further protection by wearing a broad rimmed hat. 4. Cost doesn’t count. Obviously you’ll have a budget, but be aware that you can get a $10 pair of glasses with good UV protection and spend
Keep your vision protected over summer with these tips. Picture: PIXABAY due to prolonged exposure to direct sunlight. Certain forms of eye cancers. These include tumours on the eyelid, around the eye and on the actual surface of the eye. Macular degeneration. Exposure to UV light increases risk of developing macular degeneration, which is the leading cause of age-related blindness. Pterygium. A fleshy growth over the cornea that occurs with ongoing exposure to sun, wind and sand, thus its nickname of ‘surfer’s eye’. Pinguecula. A yellowish, thickened spot on the white part of the eye. “For cataracts and eye tumours, surgery is the only solution. “There is no cure for macular degeneration, however there are treatments that can slow the progression of the disease. “A pterygium or pineguecula may eventually need to be surgically removed,” Dr Sutton said. What to check Sunlight produces solar radiation, which is harmful to any part of the body. To help Aus-
tralians protect their eyes this summer, the Vision Eye Institute has put together its top tips for buying the right sunnies: 1. Check the classification. Unlike a movie, these are strictly rated P for protection. Anything sold for eyewear (cosmetic or otherwise) must be labelled according to the AS/NZS 1067:2003 standards. The category summaries are as follows: ■ Category 0 and 1: These are considered fashion spectacles. 0 provides limited UV protection while 1 will provide limited sun glare reduction and UV protection. ■ Category 2: A medium level of sun glare reduction and good UV protection. Lens category 3: A good level of UV protection and a high level of sun glare reduction. ■ Lens category 4: Specialpurpose sunglasses that provide a very high level of sun glare reduction and good UV protection. 2. Be colour wise. Darker lenses may look more fashionable but that has nothing to do with the level of protection. Grey, green, and brown
$1000 on ones that don’t. 5. Don’t get hung up on the term ‘polarised’. They can cut down on glare and haze but not necessarily UV (See point 1). 6. Start young. Just like sunscreen, the sooner anyone starts wearing sunglasses, the more chance they have of avoiding eye problems in the future. 7. Make them a daily habit. Harmful sun can happen on a cloudy day in winter, not just in summer. A good place to start is the
Cancer Council shop which has an array of protective glasses that are fashionable and affordable. Be sun smart Dr Sutton insists that Australians should embrace the natural resources that the country has been blessed with. “Avoidance is like wrapping yourself up in cotton wool - you should enjoy getting out in the sun,” he said. “But protection for serious eye disorders is as simple as looking at the label when buying sunglasses.”

AFTER two successful open days and an influx of retirees into the Albury-Wodonga region, Riverwood Retirement Village is quickly filling up. There is still a range of units to sell, however these will not be ready, not until after Christmas because of the workload on the experienced tradespeople who complete the refurbishment of these wonderful, spacious units. If you have been contemplating moving from your family home, now is the time to make that decision. Come and visit the village, look at what is available or what will be coming up, and reserve your next stage of life. The next decision is to place your home on the market to sell, which at the moment is a good time, with interest rates still the lowest they have been, making buying at present very affordable. You can then sit back and enjoy Christmas with your family and friends and let the experts do their job selling your home. Riverwood provides a very comfortable lifestyle. Not only is Riverwood warm and welcoming, it also offers a wide range of amenities and activities to fill the day. Wander around the 18 acres of well-maintained landscaped

Rocky’s road REMEMBER Rocky? Liked the franchise? Cringed when you heard there was a seventh instalment coming out? In a knock-out surprise, this latest instalment of Rocky is probably the best since the Philadelphia boxer burst onto the scenes in 1976. With both the film’s title and limelight finally shifting off the aging Rocky, the franchise takes a step in a new and fresh direction with the introduction of Adonis Johnson Creed - yes, the one and only bastard son of Apollo, who died in Rocky’s arms in Rocky IV, much like a lot of the franchise. Adonis is well-bred and college educated, but can’t ignore the niggling in his stomach to make his own name for himself in the ring which takes him across the border to Mexico to try his fist at amateur underground boxing. He quits his job, leaves his heart-broken adoptive mother (Apollo’s widow) behind in her mansion, and goes off to find Rocky Balboa to give him the fire he needs to be taken seriously. When he gets to Philadelphia, the city of many stairs to run up in a grey tracksuit, he
looks up a worn-out and aged Rocky who is making a living running a restaurant named after his beloved Adrian, with echoes of his former glory days plastered across the dining room wall. Brace yourself for a painful 10 minutes as Adonis bursts in and starts calling him family and convinces Rocky to train him, and you have yourself on track again to a surprisingly good film. Working to shed the Creed name and prove himself as his own man, Adonis works to become ‘street’, find the hunger that made his father so successful, and prove to himself and family that he is a ‘somebody’, too. His big chance comes when Liverpool’s sweetheart of the ring Ricky Conlan (played by real-life boxer Tony Bellew) decides to fight Creed’s son for his final showdown. For those who have seen Rocky before, it sounds hauntingly familiar. The film had so many chances to go wrong, as many expected, with its rehashed formulas and franchises littered throughout.
Adonis takes similar paths to what the audiences has seen before: tough-street fighter, workout montage, romance with a sweet girl, unknown boxer randomly challenged to a fight to make a name for himself, but the director Ryan Coogler proves himself a Rocky fan and pulls together a great underdog sports story, despite the formulaic plot. Stallone slips into his renowned Rocky role with the ease of a jumping into a pair of gumboots on a wet day and brings a softness and vulnerability to his ageing character that goes beyond other films. Michael B. Jordan steps up to the ring in portraying Adonis and shows he has poured nothing but pure dedication into becoming a boxer for the film. Some of the fight sequences are amazing, and painful to watch. Rocky fan or not, get on down and check out the rare phenomenon - a franchise film living up to its original, and keeping the audience guessing that it might not be time to hang up the gloves just yet. - Erin Somerville
Chop chop and get your tickets for Sweeney Todd.
Pie time for Sweeney Todd THE pastry has been rolled and the razors sharpened - Sweeney Todd is getting ready to wow audiences at The Cube in December. Local theatre group Livid Productions has brought fantastic shows over the years including last year’s colourful production of Seussical. In Sweeney Todd, Livid returns to the dark side but don’t worry, this show has a whole range of theatrics which will make audiences laugh and cry -
at the same time. “Although we’ve done many technically challenging Broadway shows, this is by far the most difficult yet satisfying in its complexities,” director David Todd said. With rehearsals at their final stages, the cast is fine tuning its performance as the show dates draw nearer. Simplicity is always the key with Livid, visually captivating audiences with intriguing lighting, bold costuming and a raw
and minimalist set. Livid’s award-winning production crew has worked together for many years and prides itself on the huge wealth of local talent it brings together. Its orchestra is no exception. Due to the technical ranges in this production, it has been expanded, featuring some of the Border’s finest musicians. Don’t miss Sweeney Todd on 3-5 and 10-12 December at The Cube Wodonga.

Shakespeare storm brewing HOT on the heels of its successful performances of A Midsummers Night Dream and Much Ado About Nothing over the past two years, the Other Theatre Company has turned its attention to The Tempest. Taking a little inspiration from the most recent movie of the Shakespearian play (in which Helen Mirren played the role of Prospero - the Prospero will be male in this production) - The Other performers already in rehearsals for The Tempest, their adaptation of the play by William Shakespeare at Albury Botanic Gardens. The carnival will come to Albury Botanic Gardens in March 2016 when the travelling players will set up an old style “side-show fair-ground” for The Other Theatre Company’s production of Shakespeare’s The Tempest. Alonso the King of Naples and his entourage are sailing home from the merry wedding feast of his daughter to the King of Tunis when their ship is struck by a sudden terrible storm and it’s “every man for himself”. They are marooned on an enchanted isle and encounter the mysterious Prospero and his beautiful daughter Miranda, both served by the vile and monstrous creature Caliban. Everywhere they turn there are the spirits of the air and the earth. Is this providence that has saved their lives, or something else? According to director Alexander Lanton, take one drunken butler, a mean court jester and two young lovers, throw in a couple of schemers with their foul plots and there are all the ingredients for The Tempest.

Regional sales up: big property year IT’S been a big year for the property market across the state with strong growth in sales activity in many areas of regional Victoria in the year to 30 September. Total sales in regional Victoria increased 15 per cent over the year to 23,200 transactions, up from just over 20,200 sales for the same period last year. The Surf Coast Shire in the state’s south west recorded the highest increase in sales over the previous year, up more than 40 per cent to 482 sales. This was followed by the predominantly rural municipality of Baw Baw, where sales volumes rose by more than 30 per
cent to 746 sales. This was up from 571 sales in the previous year. Other municipalities recording significant increases in turnover include the City of La Trobe, up 20 per cent to 893 sales; Macedon Ranges, up 18.9 per cent to 585 sales; and Wellington Shire, up 18.3 per cent to 585 sales. The City of Greater Geelong had regional Victoria’s highest turnover in the 12 months to 30 September, with almost 2700 sales. This was up 11.4 per cent on the same period last year when there were 2400 sales. High transaction levels were also seen
21 Peacock Ave, Wodonga
in the City of Ballarat, where more than 1700 homes were sold over the year. Sales volumes also rose in the City of Greater Bendigo, up 4.6 per cent over the same period last year to 1227 sales. And, while auction activity is highly publicised in Melbourne, private sale remains the most popular way to sell a home in Victoria. This is particularly the case in three regional centres - Ocean Grove, Mildura and Wodonga - where private sales were the preferred method of marketing homes for sale. In the year to 30 September, more than nine out of 10 homes in these loca-
tions were sold by private sale. Of the 290 homes that sold in Ocean Grove over the year, almost 94 per cent of them were sold by private sale. Mildura in the state’s north west was also dominated by private sales with 526 homes, or 94 per cent, sold privately. Over the same period, only 53 auctions were held in the town. Wodonga was another strong private sale performer with 92 per cent of the 239 homes sold over the year to 30 September being by private sale. Enzo Raimondo Chief Executive Officer, REIV

Riders display tour de force By PAUL INGWERSEN WHILE most longer distance road racing winds down after October, there is still one big road event on the calendar in early December that keeps the keen, and generally the very lean, cyclists training - the Tour of Bright. In years past it was run midyear with the limitations on mountain top finishes that could pose. The regular rain meant it was a hard core race that left more than a few riders physically numb from the cold and mentally scarred from lining up in wet and miserable conditions. Nowadays, with a December start, the race is so popular that entries are capped and victory in the Tour is a proud addition to any rider’s palmares. The weather can still play a role with the final stage to Mt Hotham being cut short a number of times in recent years due to high winds or excessive rain. With the first stage time trial commencing this Friday, 4 December, a number of local riders are showing strong form. Tim Guy, for the second week running, broke the Bended Elbow time trial course record. On a very blustery Thursday evening, he sliced 11 seconds off the record he set just a week earlier, crossing the line in 21 minutes 10 seconds, suggesting that a sub 21 minute ride is not far off. Avanti rider Matt Clarke showed his form with a 21:22. An unknown quantity for the Tour of Bright will be local triathlete Jess Featonby. His time of 22:19 on his first attempt, and without full aero helmet, suggests he could mix it with the best on the weekend. Relative newcomer to road racing Nathan Tooley posted a 23:08 hinting that as the road heads uphill he will also be
A grade criterium champion Nathan Tooley leads the field. competitive in his first attempt at Bright. Other riders set strong times with Stacey Loccisano notching a PB of 26:29, and local junior Joshua Bankes 26:05. The time trial wasn’t the only action this week, with the club criterium championships on Sunday. Nathan Tooley played a smart tactical race in A grade, letting the sprinters chase down multiple breaks, taking the sting from their legs, before he put his solo riding skills on display, comfortably pedalling away from the bunch with 15 minutes to go.
A last minute revival from the bunch saw Matt Hamblin get within 10 metres by the finish, however Nathan took out a well-deserved win. In the B Grade, Jason Dudenas gave his strongest hint yet to the handicapper that he wants to be an A grader and backed up from his win in the club road race championship to show a clean set of wheels in the sprint to Steve Fraser in second and Mark Norden third. Best of luck to all starters in the Tour of Bright this weekend and enjoy that final stage epic mountain top finish up Mt Hotham.
Passing on his passion RENOWNED for his work ethic and passion for umpiring, AFL North East Border’s Field Umpire Coach Shane Downie was awarded AFL Victoria’s Umpire Coach of the Year Award (Country) at the AFL Victoria Community Football Awards last month. The award recognises Shane’s outstanding season of coaching where the emphasis was building capacity, increasing numbers on the training track, introducing technology in coaching sessions and introducing cultural change within the umpiring group. AFL NEB Umpire Development Manager Mark Bywater accepted the award on Shane’s behalf because he was overseas on holiday. “This award is richly deserved by Shane whose ongoing work within the umpiring department has had an enormous impact over the last few years,” Bywater said. He added that Downie has passed on his own passion for the sport to many new umpires and helped to transition newcomers into capable officials. “Shane is determined to continue to raise the profile of umpiring and ensure that the umpiring department is professional and dynamic in approach.” Downie moved to Wangaratta from Gippsland when he was in Victoria Police. He has umpired more than 800 games and last year took up the role of Field Umpire Coach with AFL North East Border. “He is a great mentor to young umpires - providing them with the necessary education and

The event has attracted Australian 100m record holder, London Olympian, Women’s Gift winner at Stawell, multiple national champion and Women’s AWG winner in 2013 Melissa Breen and 2013 Stawell Gift winner Andrew Robinson.

Bowlers set the way LAVINGTON has already collected the first innings points against the Wodonga Raiders by eight wickets and 170 runs in its Cricket Albury Wodonga round five game at Lavington Oval on Saturday. Spurred on by an unbeaten 101 by opener Sam O’Connor, Lavington finished the days at 2/253 in reply to Wodonga’s first innings off 83. O’Connor carried his bat through the innings, first combining with Christopher Galvin (28) for a 63-run partnership to get his team within striking distances of the first innings point. Then he combined with Samuel Harris (89) for a 208 run partnership, which handed their team victory. However the result was set up by some sensational work by the team’s bowlers with Nathan Brown taking 6-31 off 17 overs with eight maidens while Jethro Menzies supported him well with 2-25 off eight. Meanwhile at Bunton Park, North Albury has put itself in the box-seat against Albury after winning the toss and batting. At stumps it was 7-286 off 80 overs with Brendan Simmons not out on 81. Opener Ashley Borella made 57 while Daniel Athantis was out for 49. The game between Tallangatta and New City
at Urana Road hangs in the balance with Tallangatta all out for 129 after New City won the toss and sent its opponent in. In reply New City looked to be in a bit of bother at 5/76 at stumps. The Wodonga v Belvoir match could also go either way at Les Cheesley Oval. Wodonga batted first and scored just 110 but in reply Belvoir seemed to be making heavy going of it and was 2-27 at stumps off 22 overs. The remaining match between East Albury and St Patricks at Xavier Oval will resume on Saturday with St Patricks on 0-1 after one over chasing East Albury’s first innings total of 168.
