We are well and truly back into the Rotary Year. I had the pleasure of presenting to Malcolm Sawle a Paul Harris sapphire recognition on Thursday
night, another example of the quiet dedication and commitment which so
many in our club make. Greg sourced another interesting and illuminating
speaker, Greg Wills and we welcomed Pamela Page from the Concourse
Chemist and Mary Cunnington a golfing friend of Megan's.

The previous day Tony had organised for keen golfers to have the round of
golf at VGC, postponed from the very hot day, thanks Tony.
THURSDAY 18 FEBRUARY
FELLOWSHIP FILM NIGHT,

SPOTLIGHT
PALACE DENDY,
26 CHURCH ST, BRIGHTON
TIME:TBC
Peter and Heather gave us more information about the continuation of the
Farmers Market (February 13th for the next one), and that the Bayside
Councillors are going to use the market as a listening post for the next few
months.
Chris is looking for volunteers for the Day on Oak Street on the 14th of
February, and Richard has been signing us up for the next fellowship event,
the Film " Spotlight" on the 18th of February, see Richard if you'd like to
attend, $20 per head including a glass of wine. The reviews say it is riveting, it is a story of the journalists who investigated the Boston diocese's
cover up of abuse.
Shirley, Megan, Louise and I, with advice from Ken have chosen the theme
for our "dress up" for the Conference, "Dancing with the Stars". This will
give maximum potential for us to frock up, particularly in 80s glam.
Next week we have Clem Quick giving his new member talk and the week
after Lois Lindsay, we will be in for a treat.
Yours in Rotary
Trish

Lottery Results
The Peoples Choice Lottery has been drawn for another year. Unfortunately I could not see any winning tickets from our Club. However it was fascinating to see the diverse range of community groups
this lottery supports.

Speaker: Greg Wills

Topic: Charlie Hebdo
Greg Wills is a Council Member of the Australian Institute of International Affairs Victorian Branch.
The Australian Institute of International Affairs (AIIA) is an independent, non-profit organisation seeking to promote interest in and understanding of international affairs in Australia.
It provides a forum for discussion and debate, but does not seek to
formulate its own institutional views. The Institute arranges programs
of lectures, seminars, workshops, conferences and other discussions,
and sponsors research and publications. The AIIA was formed in
1924 and established as a federal body in 1933 and is the only nation
-wide organisation of its kind in Australia. It is financed by members
contributions, a small government subvention and tax deductible
donations from individuals and businesses.

While only one of the attendees, the cartoonist, Riss, was

shot in the attack the others have varying degrees of emotional scarring from the event. Many members have left the
organisation but have been replaced.
The meeting took place within a heavily fortified bunker within
the offices of the newspaper Liberation, the new home of CH.
The office is heavily fortified by French Government security.
The CH journalists had good knowledge of political events in
Australia while Greg was able to brief them on aspects of
Asian issues where the AIIA are particularly knowledgeable
e.g. North Korea)
While the circulation of CH had been trending down the
events of 7 January 2015 have reversed that.
The strong satirical flavour of CH is undaunted.
The AIIA consists of a number of independent branches, which are

located in seven Australian States and Territories, and a National
Office in Canberra. In addition, close contact is maintained with
the Royal Institute of International Affairs, Chatham House, and with
sister institutes and similarly minded organisations around the world.
The AIIA provides a wide range of opportunities for the dissemination
of information and free expression of views on these matters through
discussion and publication. Precluded by its constitution from expressing any opinion of its own on international affairs, the AIIA provides a forum for the presentation and discussion of a wide range of
views.
Translation: In memory of the victims of the terrorist attack

against the freedom of speech perpetrated inside of the offices
of Charlie Hebdo 7 January 2015.
AIIA was voted the top think tank in South East Asia and the Pacific
in the Global Go To Think Tanks Index in 2015. For more information

Late last year Greg met with five current members of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo (CH). He regarded it as one of the
great highlights of his life.
In his talk he talked broadly about the meeting, the people he met
and provided many illustrations of the hard hitting, often risqu, carton style for which the paper is known.
Highlights of the meeting included;
The meeting was only agreed to because of the high regard

in which AIIA is held. Efforts by Australian politicians to have
similar meetings were rejected.
Greg and his party were under tight security from the time
they landed at Charles de Gaulle airport.

Geographic Your Shot
Your Shot member Vic Buhay went on
a photo road trip with a colleague
through Utah and Arizona. At their first
stop, Bryce Canyon National Park, they
hiked the Navajo Loop Trail. This view
opened up as this trail turned into a
twisting and winding [path] to the bottom of the valley below, he says. The
setting sun's golden light bounced all
over the red rock walls of the canyon.
