Top social space By MONIQUE KUZEFF A TWILIGHT market was a grand gesture to the opening of the Promenade at Junction Place last week as it represented one of many events that the new space is able to host. While the Promenade was the second public space to open at Junction Place, following the opening of Junction Square in early 2015, it stands as an integral part of central Wodonga linking the two historic railway buildings to the precinct. On Friday, the public space was officially opened by representatives of Places Victoria and the Wodonga Council including Parks Victoria general manager Precincts Simon Wilson and Wodonga Mayor Anna Speedie. Mr Wilson said Junction Place was an area that would attract a wide range of population. “When it’s finished, there will be offices, retail shops and possibly a hotel or cinema, who knows what else,� Mr Wilson said. “The idea is for parents and visitors to come by and have a picnic or to use the cafes, which are on either side of the Promenade, “It’s a very social and flexible area with a lot of open and hard standing space - we will see a really huge opportunity for events such as the twilight market here.� The $1.25 million Promenade, which is Australia’s largest regional urban renewel project, was funded by Places Victoria with assistance from the Federal Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development’s National Stronger Regions Fund. Parks Victoria CEO Greg Anderson said the further establishment of Junction Place was
necessary for the growing population in the area. “With Wodonga’s population to grow in excess of 40 per cent over the next 20 years, the revitalisation of Junction Place is a necessary part for the catering of the city’s growing needs,� Mr Anderson said. “It is a new public space for Wodonga and will be the hub of the new dining precinct within Junction Place, which will continue to grow with the newly opened Goods Shed Beer Cafe. “The precinct has already become a place to meet both day and night, and it is bringing you life to the former railway site which will be transformed into a new part of Albury Wodonga over the next 15 to 20 years.� Construction of the Promenade began in August 2015, with Places Victoria contracting the City of Wodonga to construct the square on its behalf. Wodonga Mayor Anna Speedie said a development like Junction Place only came together with good planning, time, money and effort and the community had already embraced the precinct. “What an exciting moment this community has worked very hard for it...it was nearly nine years ago when we saw the $45 million investment and removal of the railway from this site, and it has created a momentum for us to rebuild the heart of our city,� she said. “The development of this precinct has seen us establish some fantastic retail and food businesses including Broad Gauge, BeanStation Cafe and the Goods Shed and some of our pop ups as well.�

Dig deep for our wildlife rescuers By MONIQUE KUZEFF FUNDING is critical when it comes to operating a notfor-profit organisation and although Kangaloola Wildlife Shelter in Yackandandah has enough funds for a few more months, they are seeking donations to help continue the work. Kangaloola Wildlife Shelter has a dedicated volunteer team who devote their time to caring for sick and orphaned wildlife on a 24/7 basis, and the group's mission is to rescue, care and rehabilitate injured native animals. Currently the wildlife shelter, which is one of the largest in Victoria, is sheltering around 30 orphaned joeys and each joey costs about $2000 from pouch to release into the bush. Licensed wildlife carer and shelter founder Glenda Elliot said that with the current hot weather more animals were crossing roads in search of water meaning more animals were needing help. “They’re in trouble because of habitat destruction, increasing fires and vehicle collisions,” Ms Elliot said. “Some people think we are government funded, but in fact we are 100 per cent dependent on the public to keep Kangaloola going.” Supporters, Gary Hayward and Andy Stevens from The Buddha Shop Albury and Terri

Rescued roos love their milk. 150456 Manderson from All Mod Steel Buildings in Wodonga, have donated $1000 each to the notfor-profit organisation. Mr Hayward said Kangaloola is important to the community because some of the animals they get in are quite rare and if they are not looked after they would die. “Without wildlife shelters like Kangaloola there wouldn’t be anywhere to help these 'roos, koalas and echidnas when they are injured or dying,” Mr Hayward said. “I hope other business get on board and donate as a year ago the shelter was going to close because funds were low and

hicle costs,” Mr Lehmann said. “The two types of animals they get in are orphaned babies from road kill where their mother has been killed, and injured animals who need help of some kind. “The shelter is critical for the minimisation or suffering of animals and also provide them with a second chance at life.” Mr Lehmann said the shelter depends on volunteers with big hearts and love wildlife. “If we didn’t have these people and the generosity from the community helping out, we don’t know how the shelter will continue,” he said. To donate to the wildlife shelter visit www.kangaloolawioldlifeshelter.org.au or 'Kangaloola’ on Facebook, or contact the organisation on (02) 6027 0814.

there weren’t enough people willing to care for the animals.” Last year, the wildlife shelter cared for 200 animals including koalas, wallabies, wombats, sugar gliders and ring tail and brush tail possums, and 80 of those required food, shelter and medical care. Kangaloola secretary Chris Lehmann said operating costs were around $2500 to $3000 a month with funding relying entirely on the public. “The donations go towards food, medicines, veterinary bills and materials for maintaining enclosures and habitats as well as other operational costs such as rescues, and phone and ve-
Warm welcome for youth voices that it had the potential to make a big impact on the community. “I think it’s really good to remind people that we (youth) are here and we matter,” Ms Cochrane said. “The Youth Council has the power to move notions and impact the community we can really achieve things we think are worthwhile in the AlburyCity community. “Young people who are passionate and are looking for something different to do outside of school commitments, the Youth Council can be really exciting and give you a variety of things to do with your time.” There will be nine youth councillor positions, including a Youth Mayor and a Youth Deputy Mayor and young people can nominate themselves for the council or be nominated by an individual or organisation. Albury mayor Henk van de Ven said both programs present great opportunities for young people to learn, grow and make a difference to the community and he looked forward to working with the new Youth councillors, Youth Mayor and Youth Deputy Mayor. “It’s an exciting time to join the Retro Youth management committee because a new cafe will this year be developed at the back of the LibraryMuseum to provide a hub for young people.” To apply for the Youth Council and/or the Retro Youth management committee visit www. alburycity.nsw.gov.au
By MONIQUE KUZEFF NOMINATIONS for the AlburyCity Youth Council and the Retro Youth management committee are now open to young people aged between 14 and 18 who are enthusiastic about representing the views of the youth of Albury. Nominations close for the Youth Council close on 26 February and the Retro Youth management committee nominations close on 25 March. The youth councillors hold forums to determine the needs of young people in the region and to raise the issues that are affecting them. These outcomes are also fed back to the AlburyCity Council to be used in the development of plans and strategies to ensure Albury youth are recognised in the council’s decision-making process. Youth Council and Retro Youth committee member Sophie Cochrane said both the council and committee were fulfilling and helped high school students determine what type of jobs they may be interested in. “Retro looks at activities for young people such as gigs and social things for disability groups, and the Youth Council looks more closely at problems facing youth. “You get to make great connections at Retro and its great being able to be so involved with gigs if you are looking at that type of career in the music industry.” Ms Cochrane said the best aspect about the Youth Council was

NBN for Albury soon By MONIQUE KUZEFF THE National Broadband Network (NBN) is expected to soon roll out in Albury with construction on the fixed line network now underway encompassing around 3700 premises in the area. With the final network designs now completed, NBN Co subcontractors will be soon laying out fibre and building cabinets around the streets to house the electronics needed to supply the speedy broadband. The NBN project is a part of the Government’s ongoing reform to ensure cost effective and quick
installation of the super fast broadband with minimal inconvenience to households. Member for Farrer Sussan Ley said it was an important milestone, which would provide much-needed relief for the region that had poor broadband infrastructure in some areas. “We have taken steps to get this project on track after so many years of misinformation and frustration,� Ms Ley said. “The NBN will truly revolutionise the way people connect in their homes and businesses.
“It is vitally important that the Albury region doesn’t waste another decade waiting for gold-plated broadband upgrades.� Over 700,000 connections are a part of NBN’s various networks, which include the fixed line and wireless networks, and the interim satellite service. According to NBN Co’s national rollout plan, September 2018 will see three quarters total homes and businesses across Australia connected to the NBN or have construction underway in their neighbourhoods. Communications Minister Mitch Fifield said the release of the rede-

signed NBN construction plan was delivering on the Government’s promise to get the rollout back on track. “When we came into government, one of our chief priorities has been to get this rollout done sooner, cheaper for taxpayers and more affordably for consumers,� Mr Fifield said. The NBN will continue to update its online maps to inform residents when the network will be ready for service. Households and businesses can also register their details at www.nbnco.com.au to be provided with future updates.

Their script is playing on their minds By MONIQUE KUZEFF DEPRESSION and mental health issues are often “swept under the carpet�, according to actor and playwright Alan Hopgood, who will be unmasking his production 'My Dog Has Stripes’ at The Cube in Wodonga, on Tuesday 8 March, to ignite conversation about those issues. The production aims to remove some of the stigma that is attached to mental health problems including depression, anxiety and anorexia through ways of entertainment and humour. My Dog Has Stripes delivers a story about a group of case workers who get together to discuss their patients’ mental health issues all the while being unaware that one of
them is in need of help. Mr Hopgood said the most important part of the afternoon would be the question and answer forum held after the production, which would help link the audience with local health services. “If we can talk about it more openly it helps to lift the stigma,� Mr Hopgood said. “The play gives the audience a chance to ask questions and link the information from the play in to the forum to form connections with services long after the play. Mr Hopgood said the play has proven to work according to the feedback provided by the audience in previous shows over the 18 years its been in production.
“We see the reactions over the years after delivering it quite extensively around Australia. We get people talking and raise awareness on these issues, “We want to help take the taboo off it because so many people have a stigma on it. Mr Hopgood said he has found many unresolved mental health issues, particularly in regional areas where people can be more isolated. “We are aware that these issues also occur in rural areas with depression often associated with drought and job loss,� he said. “People up in the bush and in regional areas have it tough in many ways as they don’t may not always have the support around them and it’s important we assist them and
bring them in to contact with whatever support is in that area.� The production has been made possible through the partnership between Mr Hopgood’s organisation HealthPlay, which has been operating for 20 years, and Villa Maria Catholic Homes and UntingCare Goulburn North East, and is one of 11 health-focussed plays produced by the HealthPlay over the last 18 years. It is also supported by North East Border Mental Health Service, Mind Australia, Carers Vic, MI Fellowship and Gateway Health. Tickets are $10 and are available for purchase online at www.thecubewodonga.com.au/tickets or by contacting The Cube on (02) 6022 9311.
Lower super returns looming on horizon By MONIQUE KUZEFF AN outlook of lower long-term superannuation returns is sounding likely as anxious markets struggle to deliver the growth target expected by savers. Retirees are to anticipate two per cent lower returns than the long-term averages and while two per cent may not sound like it would have much of an effect, it equates to a huge amount of dollars for those wishing to retire. This outlook seems more likely considering the fall of the Australian stock market as it slid into bear market terrain last week, with a further signal being the low Baltic Dry Index which indicates collapsing world trade. According to Financial Planner Sarah Crothers of Quadrant Financial Planning, people with an investment strategy in place are likely to maintain more of a steady return as opposed to those with a default option. “People who have selected default options will bear the brunt of the market fluctuations but people who have their retirement strategy in place won’t feel that,� Ms Crothers said. “Other things may come into play depending on the person and their retirement wishes and the hardest thing for retirees is that feeling of having to draw down on their wealth. Some people may reduce their spending or feed into some of their capital.� Ms Crothers said it was difficult to say how much further superannuation returns for people and investors were likely to drop with such volatility in the market. “Our market it very much governed by our top 20 stocks, which are the ones people tend to flood into and the market is pretty volatile at the moment while those stocks are being revalued. “It really depends on where people and investors are trying to diversify investments. People heading towards retirement really need to be a bit more conservative with their investments.� Proposals have been floated by government and opposition to decrease benefits of investing in super such as tax concessions and also taxing certain profit levels in super funds, such as the opposition's proposal to tax annual profits in excess of $75,000 by 15 per cent. In extreme cases like Spain, public pensions have been effectively nationalised. Ms Crothers said investments in superannuation had protected the market, and too much meddling with superfunds by government would adversely affect stability. “I think the government’s last call would be for them to muddle around with super too much as it has really protected the Australian market by having people investing into companies, “So for them to turn the Australian public away by making too many changes would be really detrimental.� Former Howlong farmer and self-managed superfund retiree Jim Edwards said that government should be doing everything to encourage people to invest in superannuation rather than placing more obstacles in the way. “It’s very critical that people should be encouraged to invest in super because you can’t, in the long term, rely on the government to pay for retirement as the money just isn’t available. “It’ important to encourage a saving culture rather than a spending culture as it is important for people and important for the country. Mr Edwards said the consequences of poor saving culture extended into other areas of society. “People spend and get into financial difficulty and that can cause marital problems and family disturbances.�

take
ten with Eric Kerr, Wodonga Councillor and Labor Federal Candidate for Indi 1. What is something people don’t know about you? A lot of people don’t know I have a twin brother, and those who have met the two of us sometimes don’t believe it. We’re polar opposites but enjoy the same sense of humour and a deep love of music. He started with guitar and I took up piano. Jeremy my twin, is a local musician, music tuition teacher and busking superstar. 2. What has been the most memorable moment of your life to date? The most memorable moment of my life thus far couldn’t be reduced to one event. The last three to four years of my life will certainly be memorable when I am looking back, big changes and plenty of joy and tears. From the highs of being chosen to stand as a candidate in Federal Elections and represent my community to the lows of losing some very close family. The 18-22 age is a time of big change regardless. 3. If you had to choose, what would your last meal on Earth be? My last meal on Earth would have to include roast chicken, shrimp dumplings, deep fried Tofu, home grown vegetables, and white chocolate. A weird mixture of my favourites. I know, it’s really weird. 4. If you could witness any event, past, present or future, what would it be? I would love to witness, and hope I do in my lifetime to see a cure for cancer and an end to suffering of countless families through history. I’ve seen friends, family and community go through the ordeal, and I can’t wait for the day we’ll be rid of this terrible thing.
alburywodonga.starcommunity.com.au
5. What is your favourite television show? Still for me clearly the best TV series ever produced, F.R.I.E.N.D.S. will be one of the funniest shows of all time. Other personal favourites are Game of Thrones, House of Cards and Dexter. 6. What is your favourite book? I always loved The Hobbit by J.R.R Tolkien. Transported me to another world of wonder and adventure. I try to read it once a year. 7. You are hosting a dinner party and can invite six guests, dead or alive. Who would they be? John Pildger, Val Badham, Kon Karapanagiotidis, John Oliver, Louis Theroux and Tim Minchin. Some are activists, others in entertainment, but all six I deeply admire for their passion and efforts in bringing the truth to the people. Kon in particular is a founder of the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre and continues to be an inspiration in hard times. 8. What has been your most embarrassing moment to date? No one specific moment comes to mind, more so a strong 22 years of consistent embarrassing trips, falls, failed jokes, accidents a lot more too. Oh wait.... I tore my pants doing squats at Crossfit. Yep that’s up there with the worst. 9. If you could live in a particular era, which would you choose? Very happy to be living in this current era with all the opportunities available and quickly advancing technology, but if I could go back to the 1930s-’40s era where the music hits a note with me (pun intended), I would. Seeing the likes of the Ink Spots and Ella Fitzgerald perform live would have been phenomenal. 10. What was the first or best concert you have ever attended?? Rick Astley at the Kinross in Thurgoona has to be a highlight but seeing A Day to Remember in Melbourne has to be the standout best for me. After listening to them since I was in Year 10 at high school, their live show didn’t disappoint.

We’re on for cup day holiday By MONIQUE KUZEFF A HALF-DAY public holiday for the upcoming Albury Gold Cup as well as next year’s event has been declared by the NSW Government. The public holiday will apply from noon on Friday 18 March and is for the AlburyCity local government area. Albury mayor Henk van de Ven said the confirmation that the next two Gold Cups would be half-day public holidays was good news because it provided certainty for the community and local businesses. “Each year we have to apply to have a half-day public holiday for Gold Cup so to have this confirmed for this year and next year’s event is
great news,” Cr van de Ven said. The Albury Gold Cup benefits from the half-day holiday that has seen an increasing attendance of over 18,000 people over previous years. The New South Wales Minister for Industrial Relations declared the local halfday public holidays under the Public Holiday Act 2010. Any employers or employees who have questions regarding entitlements for the public holiday can contact: Fair Work Ombudsman (for employees under the Federal Workplace Relations system) on 13 13 94. NSW Industrial Relations (for Employees under the NSW Industrial Relations system) on 13 16 28.

ATTENTION to all those fashion lovers, if you aren’t quite sure what attire to strut at the Albury Gold Cup this year, the LibraryMuseum is hosting a fashion exchange on Thursday 25 February. Come along to exchange some fashion and relax over a few nibbles and talk about fashion. Participants are welcome to bring up to five pieces of good quality clothing, footwear or fashion accessories appropriate for a day out at the races. LibraryMuseum curator Emma Williams said the ex-
change would be the second one hosted by the LibraryMuseum and was for both men and women fashion lovers. “This is a fashion event so we are asking people to bring in stylish fashion fit for the races that’s clean and can be used by somebody else,” Ms Williams said. “Every item they bring in will get a ticket which can be spent in our pop-up store in the museum. The fashion exchange will also be a chance for participants to see the From Paris to Albury foyer display, which celebrates regional women and high fash-
ion during the 1960s. Ms Williams said the event was for people to come and enjoy the social history collection display and to get fashion lovers together to exchange items. “We particularly do this event in the lead-up to the Albury Gold Cup, and any pieces left over we donate them to a local charity shop, but we are hoping all the pieces will be snapped up,” she said. Ms Williams said it was also a way to show the community that the LibraryMuseum was not limited to just borrowing books but also offered various other activities and events.

Last week, Albury was visited by the Guide Dogs NSW/ACT famous “gigantic blonde guide dog” known as Gulliver whose mission was to raise awareness of the free services the organisation offers to communities. The giant fibreglass mascot was hard to miss as it toured its way around town on the back of trailer certainly raising heads with a height of 4.3 metres and a weight of 690 kilos. Guide Dogs NSW/ACT aims to enhance the independence and safe mobility of people who are blind or vision impaired.
The organisation spent the week providing educational talks at multicultural events at Albury Wodonga Community College and the Gateway Health Culture Club to promote its free services and also to raise awareness off the other services it provides. Guide Dog’s NSW/ACT regional manager Ross Still said it was important for people to know that the organisation provided other free services that aid people who vision impaired, blind or gradually losing their sight. “Some people are born blind, while others might lose their sight gradually and still have some remaining vision. Anyone losing their sight is encouraged to contact us early to reduce the risks of falls, accidents and depression,” Mr Still said. With 10 offices across NSW and
ACT, Guide Dogs NSW/ACT aims to provide all communities with services wherever possible. “We come to you, wherever that may be - your home, your workplace, your school or university - learning to find your way around your particular environment is a top priority,” he said. The organisation not only provides guide dogs but also a range of mobility aids including the long cane and Orientation and Mobility Specialists to give confidential assessments. Guide Dogs NSW/ACT communications officer Samantha McGill said with Albury being such a multicultural city, it was important to educate the different sub-communities on the various services available to them. “We do really try to get right out there in to the heart of the communi-
ties and spread the word.” Ms McGill said Albury Wodonga Community College Bhutanese student and those studying aged care and disability services were informed on the free services offered by the organisation. “An information session was held, which was accompanied by a translator for the particular culture group. “It’s really about meeting the members of the Bhutanese community face-to-face to make sure they understand that there is this service.” On Friday, Guide Dogs NSW/ACT participated in the Gateway Health Culture Club, a project that aims to break down cultural barriers through face-to-face social and educational activities.

Power and performance THERE is an air of excitement in the Yamaha showroom here at the shop with the release over the past month of two exciting new models. The long anticipated release of the all new WR450F to the Australian market has set the enduro scene alight. Never before have I seen a WR so closely based on the YZ it is derived from yet so purposely modified to make it the best fully ADR’D enduro bike on the market. The bike has already proved its competitiveness in the enduro competition scene as well taking first and second places in the first round of the Queensland enduro championship. The WR is also the perfect bike for the not-so-experienced rider, with the ability to easily retune the motor to deliver more user friendly power via the optional tuning tool this bike is sure to remain the number one selling enduro bike in the country. Also this month Yamaha have released the all new YXZ1000R. The aggressively styled Yamaha YXZ1000R is the ultimate pure sports side by side vehicle. Boasting a torque rich threecylinder 998 cc motor, class-leading acceleration and top speed, a fivespeed sequential gear box, on demand 2WD/4WD and 4WD-Diff lock, long travel Fox shocks, fighter
pilot style cockpit with super sport instrumentation. This is one pure bred excitement machine that has re-written the rule book for sports ROV’S. At Whitehouse Motorcycles we are also super excited that Yamaha has trusted us to be one of only three specialist sports ROV/ATV dealers in Victoria. Bradley has just returned from specialist training on the YXZ1000R including specialist safety training with Off Road Rush and can answer any questions you may have on this excitement machine. Locally the Albury Wodonga motor cycle club has run their threeround summer dirt track series under lights at the Lincoln Causeway complex and it was a credit to all involved despite the weather bringing a premature end to round two, the three rounds attracted good crowds and was very well run with some fantastic racing - and the final round also hosted a freestyle MX display from two exceptionally talented local riders Alex Bucholtz and Codie Rooney. The club is also in the midst of a major redevelopment of the MX track. It certainly is an exciting time at the club. Two months in and it is all ready an exciting year I can’t wait to see what next month brings. Safe riding until next month.
The all new WR450F.

though this is not always possible or realistic. Stand on your bike, in the central standing position - but have your weight towards the rear. Grip your bike firmly with your knees. This prevents you from bouncing off the foot pegs over rough terrain and/or moving to the front of your bike. Use the front and rear brakes smoothly together. Your front brake will be doing most of the work because of your forward momentum. Try not to lock up the wheels, especially the front as this can cause the front wheel to wash out and kick you off. If you do lock up the front wheel, ease off the front brake to get the wheel turning again. Otherwise you may end up with your face in the dirt. Change down the gears to assist you in slowing down. This is more relevant with four strokes - if you’re not sure why, ride one ... you’ll soon find out. This also sets you up to be in the right gear to accelerate out of a corner.

Tough new four-wheel drive By MONIQUE KUZEFF

WALWA Veterinary Practice is settled in the hills of the Upper Murray. With the tranquil Murray River running past, it’s a great location on the Border for both its NSW and Victorian clients. At Walwa Veterinary Practice, clients have peace-of-mind putting their beloved pets and valuable livestock in the hands of the four friendly and knowledgeable full-time vets. Principal vet Dr David Hall started the practice 25 years ago, and it’s still going strong today, with a great reputation in the local community. Walwa Veterinary Practice is a genuine mixed practice that treats large and small animals of every description, from guinea pigs to camels, and all in between. The vets also complete pregnancy testing, calving, bull testing and general well-being of livestock for large animals. The practice’s equine clinic began last year, and offers equine breeding and reproduction. The team also castrate colts and are able to deal with all horse injuries. The small animal component of the practice’s clinic is growing rapidly with routine desexing, vaccinating and microchipping, along with the general small animal sicknesses being treated, including parvovirus and injuries. Walwa Veterinary Practice also services a number of animal rescue groups who rescue dogs and cats from surrounding pounds, as well as pounds as far away as Lighting Ridge and Forbes. The dogs and cats are transported to Walwa to be desexed, vaccinated and microchipped then taken home to their foster carers to be rehomed. The good work of Walwa Veterinary Practice has spread far and wide. In April 2014, the practice opened another
Make sure your animals are in safe hands. Picture: SUPPLIED clinic at Tennant Creek in NT to service the Barkly Shire, which had been left without any veterinary services in their area. Vets from Walwa Veterinary Practice rotate from the Upper Murray to Tennant Creek on a monthly basis. This Tennant Creek branch (Barkly Vet Practice) also works with outlying areas to do bulk dog and cat desexing, and vaccinating programs. So the next time your animal is in need of a healthy, helping hand, visit Walwa Veterinary Practice.

Cafe culture is creeping in By MONIQUE KUZEFF THERE’S something strangely calming about having a delicious brew of coffee in the morning before work at a local cafe that provides a great atmosphere and friendly staff. The Border is not short on cafes, in fact Melbourne’s cafe culture is evidently beginning to creep into Albury and Wodonga.

Perhaps, it’s a matter of trying the variety of cafes on offer and finding that particular one best suited to your liking. Whether it’s the strong smell of good quality beans or the delicious creme that rests on a perfectly poured latte, why not indulge yourself with a small treat before you launch full-energy into the day. Maybe you’re not a morning person, then why not grab a little pick-me-up with a friend on your lunch break, it’s the perfect catch up beverage. The best thing about coffee is that it doesn’t have to be the same old, same old. If you’re into trying 'new’ things and like to experiment, there’s always a cafe that offers you a variety of different coffee options. If you’re a bit of a sugar tooth, rather than grabbing a flat white or a cappuccino why not try something different -try an affagato. An affagato is a separately served espresso shot that is later poured over the top of a scoop of vanilla ice-cream. Sounds yum? Maybe you're a chocolate lover, so why not try a mocha? A mocha is a combination of chocolate syrup or powder mixed in with steamed milk and an espresso shot. Albury has some great cafes to offer, including Citi Cafe which is located on Olive Street in Albury’s CBD, Aroma’s Cafe at Thurgoona Plaza, and The Ripe Tomato which is positioned in the Harvey Norman Complex on Borella Road, Albury. So why not take a break, grab a coffee, and explore your local cafes today.

ANYONE heading to How To Be Single expecting a female centric comedy along the lines of Bridesmaids or Trainwreck will be disappointed and that’s not a bad thing. Instead of those overblown, in your face, this is how you should think movies, How To Be Single is a pleasant surprise, thoughtful interesting and beautifully shot. Based on a novel written by Liz Tuccillo, one of the writers from Sex And The City, it would be easy to see this as a copy of the show that had so many of us hooked for so long. But it’s not. Sure it’s a love-letter to New York with beautiful cinematography capturing the city at it’s best but where that was about four women constantly looking for boyfriends, this is about four women and a few guys looking to find themselves. In fact, it’s hard not to draw comparisons between How To Be Single and Love Actually interconnected stories exploring the meaning of love and life. The pace is slow and languid but that adds to the atmosphere of the piece. This is no mindless girl meets boy rom-com. The story centres around Alice (played by the usually vapid Dakota Johnson who makes a good fist of a role that feels like it was originally written for Anne Hathaway), a recent college graduate who breaks up with her long time boyfriend Josh (Nicholas Braun) to spend some time apart before they commit to spend the rest of their lives
together; Robin (Rebel Wilson) the flamboyant receptionist at the stuffy legal firm where Alice works; Alice’s older sister Meg (Leslie Mann) a workaholic gynaecologist with little time for relationships and Lucy (Alison Brie), a single 30 something, who has created an algorithm to try and help her find the perfect partner and who lives upstairs from Tom’s bar and then there is Tom (Anders Holm) the bartender, who is well-versed in the art of staying single. All the main characters cross paths at Tom’s bar as they negotiate life and love over the course of a year or two. Sure it has cliches and to be honest while Rebel Wilson is brilliantly funny, she isn’t playing anything we haven’t seen her do over and over before and could have done with being toned down and two of the best actors in it Alison Brie and Damon Wayans Junior are probably the least utilised. Wayans plays David who meets Alice at an Alumni mixer and becomes her first serious relationship after Josh. Wayans and Johnson show real chemistry on-screen (more than Johnson could muster in a whole movie with Jamie “Mr Gray� Dornan) and yet if you blink, you miss it. The use of the cliched graphics for text messages was a bit of a yawn moment as well to be honest. But despite its shortcomings, How To Be Single is a nice thought-provoking, heart-warming piece of story telling that won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but is perfect for a quiet afternoon’s viewing. -Tania Phillips

Dog-racing comedy
Tom’s top of pops By TANIA PHILLIPS IT’S been a “Very Good Year” for actor/performer Tom Burlinson and it’s only getting better. Tom, who turned 60 recently, is presenting his latest Frank Sinatra show - Sinatra At The Sands - a chance to track back through one of Frank’s best-known and muchloved albums. It’s also a chance for Tom, who rose to fame in the film The Man From Snowy River, to showcase his immeasurable talent. In 1991, Tom sang the voice of the young Frank Sinatra in the Warner Brothers mini-series ‘Sinatra’. This was his first professional singing engagement. Soon thereafter, he returned to Australia and to the stage to star in the Gordon Frost production of ‘How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying’. In 1997, Tom hosted the TV series ‘Animal Hospital’ for the Nine Network. He then appeared in concert at Taronga Zoo in ‘A Tribute to Frank Sinatra’. This prompted him to create ‘Frank - A Life in Song’, under its original title of ‘Frank The Sinatra Story in Song’. The initial two-week booking at the Seymour Centre in June 1998 was extended to five weeks, and success-
By TANIA PHILLIPS FOLLOWING a sellout season in Sydney, a new Australian theatre classic comes to Albury next month starring Noel Hodda, Jamie Oxenbould and Richard Sydenham. The Dapto Chaser introduces the Sinclair family, for whom the cut-throat world of greyhound racing is a religion. Their beloved dog Boy Named Sue is more than a greyhound; he’s their heart and soul on four legs. With the crucial Winnebago Classic on the horizon, Cess Sinclair has one shot at reversing his family’s fortunes for good. Against all the odds, he’s betting on a miracle. The Dapto Chaser is a wartsand-all Australian comedy that gets its hands dirty with the adrenaline and sweat of the dog racing sub-culture. The Sinclairs are trapped in the pressure cooker of gambling addiction, and when things don’t go to plan, they are forced to gamble the most precious commodity of all - their relationships to each other. Warning: This production contains dogs, bitches, mongrels, drugs, cheating, lying - and masses of family dysfunction. Written by Mary Rachel Brown, the play is directed by Glynn Nicholas and will be staged at the Hot House Theatre on 15, 16 and 17 March.
ful seasons in Melbourne, Adelaide, Newcastle, Brisbane and Perth were followed by sell-out returns at the Capitol Theatre in Sydney and the Comedy Theatre in Melbourne. The success of ‘Frank’ led to Tom being kept busy performing in concert at a variety of venues for charities, corporations and other organisations around the country throughout 1999 and 2000. He remounted the show for the 2001 Adelaide Cabaret Festival and another return engagement at the Capitol Theatre in Sydney, playing to sellout houses. Almost two decades later, Frank is still part of his life (combined with other projects) - and he’ll be out and about playing a few shows in regional areas this year as well performing in Sydney and Adelaide. Tom said this show featured a live 13-piece band with the first half dedicated to the At The Sands album and the second concentrating on those old favourites including My Way and New York, New York.

Weekly Real Estate Pharmacy at the forefront Albury Wodonga’s Property Guide
LOCATED at the forefront of Elmwood estate is Elmwood Pharmacy, which provides residents and the wider community access to a large range of health products including traditional pharmacy lines. In this week’s issue we introduce the fifth part of a 12-part series explaining why Elmwood was awarded the best housing developments in the state. Fronting Beechworth Road on the edge of the Elmwood development, Elmwood Pharmacy offers residents the convenience of a professional-based health service with a home delivery option. Elmwood Pharmacy proprietor Annette Walkerden said the pharmacy overall was a convenient and friendly, old-fashioned type store that was easily accessible to residents and locals. “Residents can walk to us, which is an advantage so they don’t have to park and we can offer them home deliveries too. With a team of three qualified pharmacists and a dispensary technician, Elmwood Pharmacy can ensure efficient and professional service at your every visit. Elmwood pharmacists are always available to offer customers expert advice on first aid and wound care, natural medicines and on a large range of men, women and children’s health topics. Medication management through
Medadvisor, on-site blood pressure testing, Opioid Replacement Therapy and the National Diabetes Scheme are a few of the services available at Elmwood Pharmacy. The products available include MooGoo skin care, Inner Health Plus, pain relief and cough and cold medications, eye and ear care, digestion medication and hair and beauty products, just to name a few. The pharmacy also provides a Chemsave catalogue for regular specials on household goods and a series of other products. With a cafe and medical centre situated just next door, you can pop in to the pharmacy to pick up a prescription after your coffee or if you are waiting for a medical check-up you can spend time by browsing the large range of products in-store. Elmwood pharmacists aim to help customers with their medication management through expert advice by liaising with local doctors and offering Medadvisor and Webster Pak Services, and they also offer one dollar discounts with competitive prescription pricing. “The cafe is great for people if they’re waiting for their prescription and the pharmacy is accessed directly from the entrance of the medical centre - it really is that convenience factor that sets apart Elmwood Pharmacy from the others,“ Ms Walkerden said.

Local Sport Young men go north, east By PAUL INGWERSEN BORDER riders will be heading East and North this weekend, as the local road races hit the start line in NSW and Victoria. Club riders will be extra motivated by local cyclist Timmy Guy’s impressive win on Sunday in the final stage of the UCI ranked Le Tour de Philippines starting and finishing in Legazpi City. The 147 km stage finished with a 1 - 2 result for Tim’s Attaque Gusto team, with his team-mate Cameron Bayley coming in second. As Timmy said, ‘with 5.5 km to go Cameron said if you have got anything left, keep hitting them. The only person I wanted to hit was him. Fortunately I didn’t and instead had one more swing at the bunch.’ The advice and effort paid off,
with Tim riding away for a win, and giving his team-mate a choice ride into second place. This is a big result for Tim who has come back after some time off the bike. You can get some interesting personal insights into his recent facing by following his “Watts on in the Peloton“ blog. The win is sure to motivate local riders with the potential for more results this weekend. The Victorian Road Series hits the scenic country around Bairnsdale with the Tour of East Gippsland and the border will see Neil van der Ploeg from the Avanti Isowhey Sports team, and elite triathlete Jess Featonby in a tough A Grade field. Neil will be riding the team race, while Jess will have the freedom and challenges of being an individual rider being able to focus on
a result for himself. In the lower grades, up and coming Lachlin Hutchins, who has been smashing out times in the Bended Elbow time trial series only slightly slower than course record holder Timmy Guy, may currently be unknown to many city riders, but will no doubt be on their radar as soon as the results of the first stage 8 km individual time trial are out. His power in the local series has shown he has what it takes for a top ten, and the real interest locally is how he can go in the longer stages two and three. Riding with him will be club champion Ryan Allen, while in C Grade, Bended Elbow team rider Charly McMillan will be looking for a similar result to his podium finish in December’s Tour of Bright time trial. Another relatively unknown rider
who has been mixing it comfortably with the best of the riders around the border, is Maddie Wright who will be making her Victorian Women’s Road Series debut. If the larger teams let her slip into a break, she has shown in training the ability to work consistently, and riding as an individual she will have all to gain, forcing the larger teams to respond. In NSW, the Riverina interclub series rolls out of Wagga this Sunday with a 72 km handicap around Gregadoo. These are great races for riders entering the sport. As a handicap, everyone has a chance, with the fastest riders starting up to half an hour behind the front markers. A few new riders will be heading to Wagga along with a strong club contingent, hoping to gain Riverina region bragging rights over
Ashley Borella on his way to 155. 150558
the five race series. A further motivation for some of the longer term club riders will be to seek a win in memory of Marty Eames, the former club president who passed away last week. His time at the helm of local cycling built up the club, and he led through his commitment to volunteering, and supporting young and new riders into the sport. While this weekend’s racing is in Gippsland and Wagga, local club racing starts the following weekend with a Sunday morning criterium around the Vitasoy circuit in Baranduda. Each month a different road race will be held locally, with a strong focus on giving riders new to the sport a chance to learn to race, and build their confidence before taking on the interclub or state racing.

In box seat as Borella ton makes for a strong position By TANIA PHILLIPS A BIG Ashley Borella century has put North Albury in a strong position in their round 10 Cricket Albury Wodonga match against Wodonga Raiders at Bunton Park on Saturday. North Albury declared at 1/316 with
Borella hitting 155 while Jonathon Carson made 75 and Daniel Athanitis, 62 (both unbeaten). In reply, Raiders were 0-64. Belvoir are closing in on first innings points in their game against New City at Urana Road Oval, thanks to some impressive bowling by Zach-
ary Simmonds 4-36, Cameron McCormack 3-29 and Matthew Jaensch 2-23. New City were all out for 105, and in reply Belvoir were 2-82. Torquil McKillop scored 140 as Tallangatta cruised to a first innings total of 9-357 against East Albury at
Rowen Park with Matt Armstrong scoring 45. Cameron was the pick of the East Albury bowlers, taking 4-64 and Kris Milosta, 3-129. Alex Popko was the top scorer as Albury put on 264 in their first innings against Wodonga at Billson Oval. Popko scored 104 with good support from
Brad Horn 68 with Byron Hales 3-34. In reply, Wodonga were 0-4 at stumps. Lavington scored 9-283 in their first innings against St Patricks at Lavington Sports Ground. Bradley Dalbosco scored 88 and Samuel Harris, 77, while Kane Arendarcikas took 6-70.
