I have just watched a program on bowel cancer and was surprised by the low numbers who take up the opportunity to undertake the free screening test for bowel cancer. The test is designed to screen for and detect the presence of bowel cancer at an early stage and has a high degree of accuracy. The government-sponsored test is provided to all Australians every five years commencing when we reach the age of 50 and ceases at 75 years. Only 40% of the test kits distributed are returned. Males being the worst at undertaking the test and those in their early 50’s being the poorest at returning the completed test. The statistic given was that if all completed their tests every five years, than over the next twenty years we would save the lives of 85,000 Australians. Within our Rotary service program we also distribute test kits. Over an extensive number of years Graeme Campbell has carried out the task of distributing the Rotary test kits. This year with Graeme taking on the responsibility of being the Rotary Market Manager, Ian Brooks has stepped forward to take on the responsibility for supervising our Rotary Bowel scanning program. We thank both Graeme and Ian for the delivery of this Rotary service within our district and for their support of this important program. International toast: Rotary Club of Paris Notre=Dame.

Box 153 Corowa, NSW, 2646. Bulletin Editor: Stephen Apps [email protected] - 0438 371 973 He’s been a familiar voice in the Border North East having started his broadcasting career in earnest with 3NE in Wangaratta, on the 14th of April 1969. Ray Terrill is celebrating 50 years of broadcasting today on ABC Goulburn Murray. Ray went to Lee Murray’s school of broadcasting in Melbourne, had a brief stint with 3DB reading news before the afternoon shift at 3NE came up. He started broadcasting in the North East on 14th of April 1969 at 3NE, on the afternoon shift, 1 to 4:30pm. Whilst with the Wangaratta based broadcasters he worked every shift, evenings, weekends, mornings and afternoons. In 1980 he was offered the coveted Breakfast shift at 2AY in Albury, a position he held for a decade. Again he took on many roles including musical director, and what he doesn’t know about music isn’t worth knowing. In 1990 he took time out to spend with family and pursue a business career – operating school buses in the Rutherglen district. Later in 1990 he returned to 2AY to do Saturday Swap Shop, where he stayed for 12 years. In 2009 he became the Saturday Breakfast presenter on ABC Goulburn Murray. Ray has a special bond with his producer; Shane Goldsworthy who he says knows him and they work as one. “Shane is good value and he’s the ultimate producer”. For Ray it’s the magic of radio that he loves and the connection he makes with people – he is part of their lives, and they are part of his on a Saturday morning. When he is not at the ABC he is helping Radio Rutherglen, of which he helped build and is the chief technician. Outside of radio, Ray a proud Dad of two adult daughters, Stephanie and Georgia and he loves spending time with them, he’s involved in Rotary as a member of Corowa Rotary Club, he is also a Paul Harris Fellow and keeps active with his swimming and cycling. .

  • An Inquiry Into the Politics of Rural Water Allocations in Victoria
    Watershed or Water Shared? An Inquiry into the Politics of Rural Water Allocations in Victoria Submitted in fulfillment of the requirement of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Barry Hancock May 2010 Well, you see Willard … In this war, things get confused out there - power, ideals, the old morality and practical military necessity. Out there with these natives it must be a temptation to be good because there's a conflict in every human heart between the rational and the irrational, between good and evil. The good does not always triumph. Sometimes the dark side overcomes what Lincoln called the better angels of our nature. Every man has got a breaking point – both you and I have. Walter Kurtz has reached his. And very obviously, he has gone insane (Apocalypse Now). ii Abstract This thesis explores the politics associated with rural water reform in Victoria. The specific focus of the thesis is on the period from 1980 through to the time of submission in May 2010. During this period, the rural water sector has undergone radical reform in Victoria. Initially, reforms were driven by a desire to improve the operational efficiency of the State’s rural water sector. With the growing realisation that water extractions were pressing against the limits of sustainable yield, the focus of the reform agenda shifted to increasing the economic efficiency derived from every megalitre of water. By early 2000, the focus of the rural water reform changed as prolonged drought impacted on the reliability of water supply for the irrigation community. The objective of the latest round of reforms was to improve the efficiency of water usage as the scarcity became more acute.

  • The ABC's Commitment to Reflecting and Representing Regional Diversity
    Australian Broadcasting Corporation submission to Senate Environment and Communications References Committee The ABC’s commitment to reflecting and representing regional diversity January 2013 ABC submission to the Senate Environment and Communications References Committee inquiry into the Corporation’s commitment to reflecting and representing regional diversity January 2013 Introduction The ABC welcomes the opportunity to contribute to this inquiry into the Corporation’s commitment to regional diversity. The ABC is fully appreciative of its responsibilities and audience expectations in this area. Over many decades, the Corporation has provided services for, from and about the nation’s many regional communities. No other media organisation has made the investment and demonstrated the commitment to telling stories that are relevant to communities beyond the main population centres. The presence has been constant – even if the nature of the ABC’s contribution has evolved over the years, influenced by economics, technology and changing audience tastes. The Corporation views its work in regional communities as integral to meeting its Charter obligation to “reflect the cultural diversity of the Australian community”.1 The inquiry takes place at a time of major change in the Australian media landscape. Convergence has undermined commercial business models, making it harder to service small, far-flung markets. In regional areas, there has been a diminution in content diversity, a loss of localism in services and a loss of jobs. This has been evident across radio, television and print. The ABC contends that its commitment to regionalism becomes even more important in this era of instability in the media. But in a convergent world, the ABC’s performance and efficiency must be measured across all its platforms, and not viewed through the prism of one.

  • 2017 Annual Report
    2017 ANNUAL REPORT TABLE OF CONTENTS Chairman’s Statement Page 3 Artistic Director’s Statement Page 5 2017 Festival Board / Organisation Page 9 Festival Management Report Page 10 • 2017 Performance • Media Reviews Partnerships Page 25 Community engagement activities Page 26 Australian Register of Cultural Organisations/Governance Statement Page 28 Statement of Financial Position Page 29 PAGE 2 Chairman’s Statement The 2017 Festival was always going to be interesting. After the monsoonal rains of 2015 and the floods of 2016, the Board sought to develop a program that was more resilient to the vagaries of weather. This resulted in a new venue in Merriwa Park and Ford St, both of these venues were extremely well received by the public and as a result the Board made a decision to effectively make no change to the 2018 Festival layout allowing our team to begin preparations early for the next year. The biggest change for 2017 however was undoubtedly the interest generated in our decision to change our Artistic Director after 28 years. The Festival Board made the very difficult decision to part company with long time Director Adrian Jackson and opted to appoint an Artistic Team to take the programming forward. The team was led by well-known artist and Adam Simmons. I have had the privilege of working closely with Adam for over 12 months now and his knowledge, enthusiasm and creativity are already impacting on the Festival in a positive way. Adam combines his Artistic role with an active role in the music scene as a musician. This give us the ability to be at the forefront of new styles, artists and through his trips to Jazzahead opens ups opportunities for us at an international level.
