An Epping pet store has defended keeping a puppy in a glass
enclosure on a hot day, saying the animal had adequate shade and
the store was air-conditioned.
On January 22, a shopper walked past the A Pet for Life shop at
Pacic Epping shopping centre and took a photo of a Labrador puppy
hiding from the sun behind its water bowl.
Temperatures that day reached 35.8 degrees.
e shopper posted her photo to the Pacic Epping, Oscars Law and
RSPCA Facebook sites and it quickly went viral.
Oscars Laws founder, Debra Tranter, then re-posted the photo to
Pacic Eppings page and the image quickly attracted more than 3000
likes, 530 shares and almost 400 comments.
However, when Star Weekly spoke Star Weekly spoke Star
Weeklylast week to A Pet for Life store manager Mel (who declined
to reveal her surname), she said the photo was taken rst thing in
the morning.
ey do get a little bit of morning sun, but it was very early in
the morning when that photo was taken, Mel said.
e shop faces north-east and does not bear the brunt of the
summer heat on its carpark-facing glass enclosures.
Mel stressed that all A Pet for Life sta were animal lovers and
she was surprised that few people had the decency to physically
come into the store to talk to sta and check on the animals.
People just jumped on the phone and verbally abused us, she
said.
e people who take those photos, they dont come in here. ey just
take them and post them online.
Mel said the puppy was removed from the glass enclosure a few
hours aer the photo went viral.
But the stores response didnt go far enough for some animal
rights activists. Ms Tranter said she rang the store that day to
relay her concerns and was met with indierence.
ey said the puppy was ne, and then hung up on me, Ms Tranter
said. ey were saying nothing is wrong, and refused to do
anything.
e RSPCA responded by calling the store manager to give advice
about housing and caring for the puppy.
e animal welfare organisations senior inspector, Simon Primrose,
said the manager was co-operative.
He was aware of the problem prior to us contacting him and took
our advice, conrming that measures would be taken to make sure this
does not happen again in future, Mr Primrose said.
He said RSPCA Victorian inspectors would follow up on the case
in the near future.
e Department of Environment and Primary Industries Victorian
Codesof Practice for Animal Welfarestipulate that animals kept in
pet shops must have shelter and comfortable conditions of
temperature, ventilation and lighting.

With the weather set to warm up again, residents are being urged
to slip, slop and slap as Cancer Council Victoria and the state
government kick-start a six-week SunSmart campaign reminding
Victorians about the dangers of excessive sun exposure and tanning.
The campaign includes multimedia ad campaign running until early
March, in line with the peak-summer UV period. Health Minister Jill
Hennessy said more than 40,000 cases of skin cancer were treated in
Victoria each year. In 2013, 2307 Victorians were diagnosed with
melanoma and 374 people died of this most serious of skin cancers;
a further 86 died of other skin cancers. Skin cancer is one of the
most preventable forms of cancer, Ms Hennessy said. Chanel Bartolo

Whittlesea councils Australia Day reworks display sparked a
fast-moving grassre last Monday night.
e crescendo to the days celebrations kicked o about 9pm. e rst
three reworks sparked a small blaze in the grass. It quickly spread
to burn about one hectare.
A spokeswoman from the Country Fire Authority said crews were
already on standby and were able to quickly extinguish the re.
e CFA was there as a precaution in case a re were to break out,
she said.
e re was brought under control within 10 minutes.
In line with safety procedures, the council promptly cancelled
any further reworks.

display, he said.
e pyrotechnicians were issued all the permits, which come with
stringent requirements.

La Trobe University students fear the federal governments push
to deregulate fees will price poorer students out of tertiary
education.
Last week, Education Minister Christopher Pyne said he wasnt
willing to compromise on allowing universities to set course fees,
which he describes as core to the governments proposed changes to
higher education.
La Trobe Student Unions education vice- president Betty Belay,
20, said students oen approached her with their concerns about the
aordability of higher education.
ere have just been so many people so worried, she said. eyre
scared and feel helpless. We deserve a say in what happens, but the
federal government obviously thinks otherwise.
e international relations student said that like many students,
she wants to continue her education purely for the love of
learning, but Im worried I wont be able to study because of the
nancial burden.
Archaeology student Georgia Elliott-Vautin, 21, said she fears
for her nine-year-old sister and anyone younger than herself who
wont be able to aord the loan.
Universities arent meant to be competitive, theyre meant to be
accessible and theyre cutting o a whole portion of society, mostly
students from lower socio-economic backgrounds, by deregulating
fees.
Ms Elliott-Vautin estimates her HECS debt will reach about
$100,000 aer post-graduate study. It terries me, she said.
Labor Scullin MP Andrew Giles visited the Bundoora university in
November to listen to students concerns. He said he was struck by
their overriding concern for their younger brothers, sisters and
future students.
e real concern they had about the proposed changes to higher
education was the uncertainty for other people, for prospective
students, Mr Giles said.
Would their siblings be put o by higher debt? People were
reecting on what this means, he said.
Parliament resumes next week and debate will begin again in the
House of Representatives. If Labor and the Greens remain opposed,
Mr Pyne will need the vote of six crossbench senators to pass the
bill.

Public toilets in council-managed parks are few and far between,
according to a City of Whittlesea resident.
Nicole Taylor took to social media last week to raise her
concerns about the councils lack of toilet facilities.
Ms Taylor posted on the councils Facebook page about having to
drive 10 minutes to nd a park with a toilet.
We have pre-schoolers, one toilet- trained the other in the
process, she posted on Facebook.
ere are so many parks in the newer housing estates with
barbecues.
But unless you can hold on for a few hours or are happy to have
your children relieve themselves in the gardens, there are few
parks in the City of Whittlesea that can be used to their full
potential.
According to Whittlesea parks and open space manager Kristen
Jackson, the council does not have a policy for providing toilets
in public open space.
e issue will be addressed in councils new Open Space Strategy,
which is currently being developed, she said.
Once the strategy is nalised it will provide guidance on what
types of areas should have public toilets based on criteria such as
proximity to other toilets and the types of services already
available.
Ms Jackson said developers had an obligation to provide open
spaces yet there was no requirement for them to build toilets.
Once developers build a park, they are obliged to manage it for
two summers and three months before it becomes the councils
responsibility.

Marilyn McQualter thinks she has been to every John Farnham
concert ever held.
Not because shes a huge Farnham fan, but because the employees
of a sheltered workshop she volunteers for are obsessed with the
Australian pop icon.
Ms McQualter spends many weekends and sometimes weeks at a time
taking High Citys employees to concerts and on trips overseas and
interstate.
She also organises fundraising events for Whittlesea Rotary, the
Country Womens Association, the Children First Foundation and St
Damiens Church.
Its little wonder the 69-year-old Whittlesea resident was named
her councils 2015 citizen of the year at an Australia Day ceremony
last Monday.
Another recipient, Epping resident Amanda Davies, 17, was named
Whittleseas young citizen of the year for her advocacy work and for
raising awareness of the plight of asylum seekers and refugees.
Kathy Lizio was named senior citizen of the year for her
involvement with the University of the ird Age, teaching those
unfamiliar with the digital world how to send emails and surf the
web.
e councils all-female line-up of Australia Day winners also
included Flick Hardy, who was named the access and inclusion
citizen of the year for her dedication to making basketball
accessible for people with a disability and organising the
mid-season Whittlesea recreational disco.

Samet Istar says he was crippled by shyness in his teens.
I was so shy I couldnt even speak, the 29-year-old says,
reecting on his school days. But when the Dallas resident started
an international business degree at La Trobe University, he decided
to step outside his comfort zone.
With just 15 contact hours at university, he threw himself into
extra curricular pursuits. He was one of the founding members of

Association and began organising dances and theatre productions,
volunteering on community radio and promoting inter- cultural
understanding.
On campus, we wanted people to meet each other, build
friendships and network to help them nd their rst job, he said.
When the previous Hume council elections were held three years
ago, he ran for oce. Although unsuccessful, he has agged a rerun at
next years elections.
At an Australia Day ceremony hosted by the council last Monday,
Mr Istar was named Humes 2015 citizen of the year, a gong he hopes
might put him in good stead if he does
run for a spot on council in 2016. He said the award was
unexpected because he had been actively involved in the community
for only 11 years.
e young citizen of the year award went to Craigieburns Angela
Atonio. Her citation recognises her commitment to the Craigieburn
Church Youth Group and the council youth services young leaders
program.
Highlands Movie Night was named the 2014 community event of the
year.
e March movie night attracted more than 500 local residents,

Eleven drivers were caught behind the wheel of unregistered cars
in Hume and Whittlesea over the Australia Day long weekend.
Police conducted a four-day operation targeting speeding, drink
and drug driving, distraction, fatigue and seat belt oences.
On the Australia Day weekend, between Friday morning and Monday
night, Operation Amity recorded 8000 oences on Victorian roads;
135,000 breath tests were conducted and there were 1100 roadside
drug tests.
ne handed out was for disobeying signs and signals, with seven
oenders caught. One drink-driver was nabbed but no one failed a
drug test.
Four motorists in Hume were found to be driving an unregistered
car, three without licences and one on a suspended or disqualied
licence. One driver was caught on a mobile phone and two were
detected speeding.
Across the state, speeding oences were the most common oence,
with 3146 drivers ned.
Ninety-nine drivers failed a drug test and 258 were found to
have a blood-alcohol reading
In Whittlesea, speeding was the most prevalent oence, with 12
drivers caught over the limit. No one was found to be over the
maximum blood-alcohol reading or with drugs in their system.
One person was pulled over and found to be driving on a
suspended licence. Two drivers were ned for driving without a
licence and seven for driving unregistered cars.
Two drivers were caught using their mobile phones, ve for
disobeying a sign or signal, and two for driving without their
seatbelt fastened.
In Humes police area, the most common
above 0.05. ere were no deaths on Victorian roads over the long
weekend.
However, last Wednesday the road toll jumped aer a fatal crash
in Central Victoria, which killed four young men, including a
22-year-old Craigieburn resident.
Road policing Assistant Commissioner Robert Hill said one
fatality-free weekend could not change the fact that 21 people had
lost their lives on Victorias roads already this year. Excessive
speed, alcohol and lack of seatbelts have contributed to the deaths
of a number of people this year, he said.
Dozens nabbed during road blitz
Two heavy-duty cranes dotted the Epping skyline in December. The
20-tonne machines had been brought in especially to simultaneously
lift two 34-tonne magnets that were commissioned for use in Gina
Rineharts Roy Hill iron ore mine in the Pilbara region of Western
Australia. Malcolm Davy, general manager of manufacturer Eriez
Magnets, said the gigantic magnets took about eight months to build
and involved intensive manual labour. They will be installed above
conveyer belts in the mine to remove unwanted steel before it
reaches a crushing belt where it could damage machinery. The
international company moved from Campbelleld to larger premises in
Epping late last year. Mr Davy said China had been the driving
force of their market. But it has quietened down a bit lately. Lexi

e Victorian Parliamentary Library will fund a study into the
demise of the car industry.
A team of academics from the Australian Catholic University
(ACU) will compare the aershocks caused by the closure of
automotive industries in Melbourne, Geelong and Detroit.
e project is part of a comparative analysis that will look into
what happens aer de-industrialisation in Australia and the United
States.
e ACU academics will work alongside researchers from Wayne State
University in Detroit, Michigan.
Melbourne-based Dr Joshua Roose is one of three ACU researchers
on the team.
He said the group would start interviewing supply chain
manufacturers this month to assess the impact Fords closure will
have on individual employees and their families.
As a political scientist, his role is to analyse the role played
by the automotive industry on multiculturalism.
For generations, Ford and Holden have employed migrants whose
skillsets were not easily transferable in Australia, Dr Roose
said.
ey could move up the chain, and this acted as a form of
immigration and assisted with multiculturalism in the outer
suburbs.
He said the research would focus on the trajectory of former
automotive employees and the impact of their redundancies on their
lives.
Are they nding new jobs or moving into precarious casual labour,
such as labour-hire rms?
Where has the money gone that was ear- marked to retrain them
and stimulate these local economies?
Whats the impact of federal government policies on real people?
Dr Roose will ask.

Two Hume councillors at the centre of claims about alleged
intimidating behaviour have called for a report from the
investigation to be released.
Councillors Jack Ogilvie and Steve Jack Medcra fronted an
independent inquiry late last year aer the council received several
formal complaints following a ery meeting in Broadmeadows last
September about Sunburys separation from Hume.
Both councillors claim the subsequent investigation cleared them
of all complaints. It was an independent panel that cleared Jack
and I of all claims, Cr Ogilvie said. I want it released so it
clears our names. Cr Medcra said the two councillors had been
crucied. e claims were made in public; the report should be made
public also, he said.
Sunbury resident and pro-split supporter Trevor Dance said the

Art therapist Kath Armour likens the life of a carer to that of
a boiling frog.
An age-old anecdote tells the story of a frog placed in a pot of
cold water that slowly reaches boiling point, cooking it to
death.
ese women, many of whom are caring for a parent, husband or
adult child, have forgotten how to look aer themselves, she
said.
For years, Ms Armour has run counselling, cra, meditation and
yoga classes as an holistic form of therapy. Aer a successful pilot
program last year, shes been contracted by Whittlesea council to
run a six-week support group for female carers, starting soon.
e group aims to help women with stress management, practical
strategies to help them in their roles as carers, emphasising the
importance of caring for themselves, and giving them the chance to
meet others in similar situations.
Ms Armour said about 10 women attended each class during last
years trial and most were women in their 50s, 60s and 70s.
She said most of the women were initially unsure what they were
going to get out of the course.
is is really about learning to look aer themselves, the
practical and psychological stu, she said. If they dont look aer
themselves, they wont be able to look aer anyone.
Ms Armour will take participants through breathing,
visualisation and meditation exercises. Art therapy sessions
include felting, clay work, silk scarf making and writing
poems.
e classes start on February 16 and run from 10am until 1pm.

On a quiet Chiang Mai street of half-full restaurants and bars,
I met a young Burmese woman making the lightest crepes I had ever
seen.
She told me she had bought the crepe cart a year before when she
moved to Chiang Mai from Bangkok, having spent seven years in the
bustling city prior to living in Myanmar.
It took her two weeks of practising to be able to make perfect
crepes and, boy, were they good especially the Nutella and banana
ones.
ose crepes werent the only good thing about Chiang Mai; the
various tours available were, too.
My partner and I opted for a day trip that included feeding and
riding Asian elephants, white-water and bamboo raing and a visit to
a hill tribe. We bumped our way into the mountains in a ute.
e elephants were larger than expected and their skin much
rougher.
To get aboard, the elephant kindly lied its leg providing a step
from which to lurch on to its back.
e elephant didnt seem to feel a thing and loved it when we fed
it bananas.
Our accommodation, Villa apae, was in a great spot for seeking
out all things both adventurous or relaxing.
It was a small boutique aair of only ve rooms, each one
decorated in vibrant colours and overlooking the pool.
e breakfasts everything from banana pancakes to fried rice made
getting up each day much easier.
We lled the evenings in at the nearby night markets which
usually started about 6pm.
Thai delights in a city of charm
Feeding elephants in the mountains of Chiang Mai. (Rebecca
Miller)
Chiang Mai is packed with lovely people, engaging experiences
and great avours, as Rebecca Miller discovered
A multitude of stalls are lled with souvenirs for people of all
ages and theres plenty of ai food and music.
We ate at a restaurant where a ai man was singing the songs of
American singer Jack Johnson and all the 20-something Aussies sang
along including me.
e food in Chiang Mai is similar to that in southern ailand, with
plenty of Western meals available.
Our favourite was Fresh&Wraps Restobar where we enjoyed
salads, wraps and fresh juices for brunch.
To get home via Bangkok we opted for the overnight train.
We chose a rst-class sleeper not as luxurious as those in
Australia, but better than sleeping in a carriage with no privacy
or air-conditioning. It included a couch that converted to bunk
beds and a basin.
A hostess came around with a menu and tried to talk us into
eating in our cabin I think they get tips that way but we chose not
to as the space was too pokey.
Instead, we dined in the trains restaurant. e meals ai only are
the same price as those served in the room, about $6, and quite
tasty.
eres plenty to love about Chiang Mai, especially the friendly
locals.
Just beware of taxi drivers overcharging set the price before
going anywhere!

Contact paper and the second is re-introducing homework into a
household that hasnt picked up a pen in two months.
Homework remains a perennial topic of debate in education, with
some experts arguing it does more harm than good. But the reality
is most students will be bringing it home at the end of each day,
especially if theyre in their nal years of schooling.
Dr Vicki McKenzie, a researcher at the Melbourne Graduate School

among secondary school students.

Find a routine \ Sticking to a timetable will ensure you meet
deadlines while not overdoing it.
Chunk it down \ Break work up into small, manageable portions so
you dont get overwhelmed.
Eat well \ Less sugar and caffeine, more wholegrains and foods
rich in essential fatty acids.
Be mindful \ Include mindfulness or meditation in your daily
routine. Just 10 minutes can make all the difference.
Get feedback \ Ask teachers to look over the work youre doing at
home so you
know youre on the right track.

main types of students who struggle to study at home.
eyre either doing way too much, and not sleeping, so theyre not
learning anything anyway, or theyre doing nothing at all,
shesays.
e former, oen a perfectionist, gets anxious and overwhelmed
easily.
Once they can see what stresses them the most, its about
teaching them about the brain that it doesnt work properly if youre
not sleeping, Dr Tuke Flanders says.
She recommends introducing relaxation strategies such as
mindfulness meditation, a form of attention training that
strengthens the brains ability to focus and cope with anxiety or
stress.
While technology can be distracting, they also hold plenty of
tools to help young people practise mindfulness. Smiling Mind is a
Melbourne mental-health organisation that developed a web and
app-based program of modern meditation techniques specically geared
towards young people.
Dr Richard Chambers, a clinical psychologist who helped develop
Smiling Mind, says the key is to help students concentrate on what
is in front of them.
Focussing on what is rather than what if has been shown to
reduce stress, improve mental health and even boost academic
performance, he says.
As for students who nd it dicult to motivate themselves to
study, Dr Tuke Flanders says a large part of the problem is that
students are taught what they should be learning, but not how.
You have to help them identify where to start, how to chunk down
the work and how
to keep it interesting so they can keep the motivation going,
she says.
Dr McKenzie says if computers, television or video games are a
distraction, its best to keep them away from the study area and use
them as a reward. But physical activity is always a better way to
relax.
What can parents do to help? Many fall into the habit of nagging
their children to study, but Dr Tuke Flanders says forcing the
issue is usually counterproductive.
A lot of it comes down to the relationship you have with your
child, and how youre communicating, she says.
Some parents are still treating their teenagers like children
and theyre not. ink about your tone of voice, think about whats
going to motivate them. If what youre doing isnt working, nd a
dierent way to engage them.
Both experts agree the most important factor in developing
homework habits is to start working on them early.
I always describe it like training for a big game or a big race,
Dr McKenzie says.
You put time into it, you build your skills and your performance
capacity, you eat well, you get a good nights sleep. Your parents
are one of your coaches but, in the end, youve got to make
decisions on the eld. \

SPORT
By Tara Murray
e Calder Cannons selection of its best team from the rst 20
years of its history reads like a Whos Who of AFL players, past and
current.
e 22 stars chosen include a Brownlow medallist, two Norm Smith
medallists, an NAB Rising Star winner, nine premiership players and
numerous best and fairest winners. All have played at least 50
games in the AFL.
irteen of the 22 players converged on Etihad Stadium on Saturday
night as the Cannons celebrated their 20th anniversary in the
competition and inducted 10 people into their Hall of Fame.
e rst draee, Geelong premiership hero Darren Milburn, was the
oldest in the team of the past 20 years, with Cannons
Cannons guns saluted2010 premiership stars Dion Prestia and Tom
Liberatore the most recent players.
Fremantle duo Ryan Crowley and Zac Dawson travelled from Perth
for the occasion; Richard Douglas, Brent Reilly, Daniel Talia and
assistant coach Ryan OKeefe came from Adelaide, while Jude Bolton
and Prestia also travelled from interstate.
Many of the players spoke about the Cannons culture and how it
made them feel like belonging to a family.
Geelong star James Kelly said he cherished his time with the
Cannons, while OKeefe said he was forever grateful.
Talia, who played only 10 games for the Cannons in two years,
spoke about wanting to get on the park every week but being told to
think about the bigger picture.
Richmond ruckman Ivan Maric said his time at the Cannons was
vital in his choosing football over basketball, and tagger Crowley
revealed he was the complete opposite to his junior years, when he
hated taggers.
Rodan and Chapman spoke about how the Cannons not only changed
their lives but also made an impact on their families.
Seven players were among the inaugural Hall of Fame inductees
and they were joined by three men who have made a dierence o the
eld: Ross Monaghan, who was tasked with setting up the Cannons;
three-time premiership coach Robert Hyde, and Phil Dunk, the
trainer for 20 years.

night, go to www.northern.starweekly.com.au

Whittlesea, including Ian Berry (pictured), slipped further away
from the top four in Bowls Victorias division 1, section 1 with a
loss to top side Deer Park on Saturday. Whittlesea won just one of
the four rinks as Deer Park claimed its 16 (78)-2 (60) win. With
three rounds left, the loss has Whittlesea 17 points behind
fourth-placed Croydon . This week Whittlesea plays
bottom-of-the-table Brighton (2).

Condence continues to grow for the Greenvale Kangaroos aer they
knocked o premiers Footscray Edgewater in Premier Cricket at the
weekend.
Despite being in control starting day two, the Roos early-season
batting woes meant a win was by no means certain.
ey had bowled out Footscray for 188 the previous weekend and
resumed at 2-75.
Captain James Lidgett and Dale McDonald ensured a batting
failure was nowhere to be seen. e pair took the score to 2-180,
before Lidgett (63) fell just nine short of victory.
McDonald and wicketkeeper Ben Cox passed Footscrays score and
batted on, McDonald falling for 90 as the Kangaroos nished the day
on 8-327.
he Kangaroos Turf team had no such luck, losing to McKinnon in
the senior division. Aer making 150 themselves, the Roos couldnt
stop McKinnon passing the target with only ve wickets down on its
way to 288.
It was wickets and more wickets in the game between Tullamarine
and Yarraville Club. Aer 15 fell on day one, both struggled again
on Saturday.
Resuming at 5-51 and needing a further 95 for rst-innings
points, Tullamarine lost its last ve for 25.
e Clubbers then declared at 7-86, setting Tullamarine a target
of 157.
But Tullamarine survived to stumps, nishing at 9-135 and foiling
the Clubbers bid for an outright.

Six of the best for Yates as Falcons y to the topSix wickets to
Adam Yates helped Roxburgh Park Broadmeadows to a crushing win over
Coburg in Victorian Sub-District crickets north-west division on
Saturday. e Falcons registered the rst outright win of the season
in north-west, moving them to the head of the table. A top-two nish
and double chance in the nals is now in their own hands. Aer
skittling Coburg for 50 and securing rst-innings points on day one
of the clash at Coburg City Oval, the Falcons resumed at 2-147 and
scored quickly before declaring at
6-212. Jacob Austin top-scored with 75. Coburg was all out for
127 in the second innings, Yates taking 6-20. But the Falcons task
wasnt as easy as it seemed, according to captain-coach Mitch
Johnstone. We had them 4-50-odd at tea and then they got a good
partnership going between a couple of established players, he said.
At that stage we thought it would be hard to get the outright win.
But we threw our bowlers around and Adam Yates did the job. It was
the best performance
from any of our bowlers this season, Johnstone said. Hes been
under-utilised as our bowling attack has been really strong.
Johnstone said the team had come out with a positive mindset aer a
disappointing result in the previous round. e loss was the kick up
the backside we needed to refocus, he said. Were a workmanlike side
and we werent quite focused in the last round. is week we got back
to what we do best. Jacob Austin, whos just 18, batted really
well
and Tim Branagan is returning to form. But Johnstone said that
with a poor percentage, the side needed to continue winning to stay
in the top two. In such an even competition, a home nal and second
chance is massive, Johnstone said. A dominating performance from
Brad Mitchell ensured victory for Plenty Valley against Brunswick.
Mitchell made 175 not out in his sides total of 275. e next highest
score was 25. e Bats sit second on the ladder, three points behind
the Falcons.
