Child injured at shire health centre Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire says it has removed potential hazards from its 17 Maternal and Child Health centres after an eight-month-old child was hospitalised with a head injury sustained at one of the centres. On Friday, the shire confirmed an anonymous report received by The News that the child had been injured in an incident involving a wall heater.

The report claimed the child had been severely burnt but shire communications manager Todd Trimble said this was incorrect. “The child was not ‘severely burnt’, but rather sustained an impact injury to the head as a result of a heater grate landing on them. The heater was not on at the time,” he said. The report claimed the child was alone in a room but Mr Trimble said this was incorrect. “The child was on the floor next to the mother who was

talking with a Maternal and Child Health nurse.” The shire’s acting director of sustainable communities, Robin Adams, said it was “the first time an incident of this nature has occurred”. “The Maternal and Child Health team take health and safety very seriously. Staff members acted promptly to render first aid and continued to support the family in the following days. The infant has made a complete recovery,” he said.

“The shire’s infrastructure team immediately completed a sweep of all Maternal and Child Health centres to remove any similar risks to ensure such an incident does not occur again. “The family has met with council officers; they are continuing to use the service and there has been no indication that they will be taking the matter further.” Mr Adams said that about 10,000 children up to age six were enrolled in the shire’s Maternal and Child Health program. “The program completes

about 18,000 consultations a year from 17 service locations.” The News understands the child received minor plastic surgery on the scalp after sustaining a minor fracture. It is believed the child pulled the grate away from the heater but the shire refused to confirm this. The shire also would not say if it was required by law to report the incident to WorkSafe or other state government authorities. Nor would it say explicitly if it offered to pay all medical expenses.

New delay to pier opening by the installation issue and other factors including unfavourable weather. “The Mornington Pier Reconstruction Project is expected to be completed in mid-June,” she said. Work ceased for five weeks over the summer to enable residents and visitors to access the 53-metre middle section of the pier, which was rebuilt between August 2010 and September 2011. Work laying timber decking on the concrete base is continuing. Other work done since the end of January has included installing handrails and a low landing. Completion of the pier will be followed by renovation of the pier forecourt, which will include re-laying of the cobblestone area, services upgrades, and seating, lighting and historical information signs. This will not restrict public access to the pier, Parks said. In May 2012 the Liberal-Nationals Coalition state government announced it would spend up to $15 million to replace the 120-metre outer section, which had been closed since 2010 after storms damaged pylons and dislodged top deck planks in April, August and September that year. The money was the lion’s share of the government’s $23 million for local port infrastructure upgrades. When completed, the government will have spent about $18.5 million on the pier since 2010. More than 250,000 people visit the pier ever year. Mike Hast

Putting a new price on past values AFTER completing building works and extensions to create a centre for the community in Red Hill, St George Anglican Church parishioners are busy raising funds for a better kitchen. They are delighted that the centre is being used regularly by the community for a range of activities, including meetings, bridge evenings, and play group. An antiques valuation day fund-rais-

er will be held on Wednesday 27 May. Certified practising valuer Warren Joel will value items such as antiques, heirlooms or family treasures – whatever people bring along. Entry is by pre-purchased ticket for one of the session times: 10am-noon, noon-2pm or 2-4pm. Tickets are available from Tricia Morris, 5989 2746, or Ann Summers, 5986 4502 for $20. A ticket entitles the bearer to have

up to three items valued and includes refreshments while they wait their turn. “The day promises to be most entertaining and all are welcome,” secretary Gwynne Cox said. Groups or organisations interested in booking any of the rooms at St Georges for a function or meeting, should call Ms Cox on 5986 5127 or email stgeorgesredhill@gmail.com

Window Decor at Affordable Prices

OPENING of the rebuilt outer section of Mornington pier has been delayed due to problems with the way wave screens have been attached to the seaward end of the structure. Ten large concrete wave screens have been removed and are being reattached using a different, stronger system. The wave screens are a crucial element to protect the harbour from storms. They have been installed on both sides of the pier to provide the best protection of the harbour since a pier was first constructed more than 150 years ago, however the harbour will still be vulnerable to big northerly storms. A proposal by Mornington Yacht Club to build a wave wall running off at an angle from the pier’s end was rejected by the state government in 2012. It was part of a plan to build a private marina in the harbour. Parks Victoria had hoped to open the pier last month. It is the second delay as bad weather last winter and spring also forced Parks to reschedule the projected opening date from last December to March this year. Completion of the work had always been dependent to some extent on weather. Strong winds and rough seas last week did not help Parks Victoria contractor Johnson Constructions, which is using divers to attach wave screens. A Parks Victoria spokeswoman said the pier’s completion had been delayed

A la votre: Here’s cheers for Keith Stevens in April when presented with the Legion of Honour by the French Honorary Consul General, Myriam BoisbouvierWylie.

Another loss for Bomber Command WORLD War II survivor Keith Stevens once remarked that he did not get too upset when things went wrong in business, or life, because of the situation he found himself in after being shot down during a night bombing raid over France. “I always look back to the time when I was shot down and was sitting under a tree in a foreign country – an enemy occupied country – and I didn’t know the language, and I had nothing to eat. I look back at that and think nothing could get as bad as that. Life could never get as bad as that, so it’s the only way to have a happy life.” Mr Stevens, whose remarkable war record was recounted in ‘A new honour for Bomber Command veteran’ (The News 21/4/15), died on Anzac Day.

His funeral at Rosebud on 6 May was attended by many of the staff and residents of the Village Glen, where he and his wife Anita had lived since 1988. The service reflected the fondness Mr Stevens had formed for France and its people during those dark months in 1944: a bottle of French champagne sat on the coffin and songs by Edith Piaf were played over the sound system. Late in 2014 the French president awarded him the highest level of chevalier (or knight) of the French Legion of Honour for “… risking your life for the liberation of our country 70 years ago”. The presentation, delayed when he was hospitalised by a fall, took place on Thursday 16 April when the Honorary Consul-General of France

in Melbourne went to the Ti Tree aged care centre in Rosebud. The article featuring Mr Stevens DFM in the special Anzac Day editions of the Mornington Peninsula News Group papers reported that he joined the RAAF in 1940, trained as a wireless operator and rear gunner and subsequently flew 62 operations in a Lancaster with Bomber Command before being shot down over occupied France. Once on the ground, he worked with, and was hidden by, the French Resistance movement before escaping back to England. Of all the stories which have appeared in our newspapers over the past decade, this one has prompted the greatest response from our readers. Peter McCullough

Mornington News 19 May 2015

Music lives on after 50 years THE award-winning screen musical The Sound of Music, which first charmed audiences in 1965, is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Worldwide celebrations to mark the milestone including gala concerts, marionette exhibitions, tours of the movie settings and cast reunions. Not to be left out, Mornington audiences will be treated to a new junior version performed by students. About 50 have jumped at the chance to be in two special performances, 11am and 4pm, Sunday 28 June, at the Peninsula Community Theatre, Wilson’s Rd. “This unique film is still as popular half a century on as it was when it was first released,” said director Rebecca Perry, who has had 10 years’ experience directing youth theatre. She has a “deep love” of this particular musical. The children are now busy learning lines, mastering dance steps, attending costume fittings and looking forward to their Sound of Music ‘sing-a-long’ movie afternoon. The production will be a nostalgic trip down memory lane for those who’ve loved it in the past - and its acts as a fresh introduction to the story for younger audience members. The film was one of the most successful of all time, winning five Oscars in 1966 - with the real Maria Von Trapp appearing as an extra. Her family performed as a musical group for more than 30 years. It was one of the most successful films of all time. With a budget of $8.2 million it made $112.48 million at the box office. The original musical was written by Rodgers and Hammerstein and the junior version released for performance in 2014.

Fact and fiction: There’s virtually no end to the subjects covered in books available at this year’s Book Bonanza sale being run by Mt Eliza Rotary Club. Peyton Carter, above, gets a helping paw from her dog Eloise while Merrilyn-Hamilton Smith and Peter Greer sort through some of the books in this year’s sale. Picture: Yanni

A Bonanza to exercise the mind BOOKS can be used for exercise, according to the Rotary Club of Mt Eliza. But the exercise being promoted by the club doesn’t involve lifting a stack of heavy tomes; it’s all about the mind. The club’s promotion of this year’s Book Bonanza sale is based around Irish author and politician Richard Steele’s statement that “read-

ing is to the mind what exercise is to the body”. Based on that, the opportunities for exercise will be boundless when the club lifts the covers on this year’s offerings: from biographies to the arts, antiques, interior design, vehicles, sport and politics. Of course literature gets a mention as do books for children, the religious, travellers and cooks. The books come in hard and soft covers and

include some first editions and boxed sets. Money raised by the book sale goes to community projects. Entry is free and refreshments will be available to Mt Eliza Rotary Club’s annual Rotary Book Bonanza, Ranelagh Scout Hall, Butler Reserve (off Ranelagh Drive), Mt Eliza, 10am-3pm Saturday 23 May and 9am- 2pm Sunday 24 May.

Lights for black spot A LONG-running campaign to improve safety at a Mt Eliza traffic black spot has been successful with the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s federal MP Bruce Billson securing funding for a signalised pedestrian crossing that will also enable cars to trigger the lights. The $400,000 for signals was revealed in an email Mr Billson sent to interested parties on 9 May including Mornington MP David Morris, shire councillors and Mt Eliza safety campaigner and businesswoman Joanne Kidder. Mr Billson said a signalled pedestrian crossing would be installed on Nepean Highway â&#x20AC;&#x153;in the vicinity of Tower Rd and Volitans Ave (near the bus stops) and other treatments (including vehicle-activated under-road pads that will trigger the pedestrian traffic lights when cars seeking to enter Nepean Hwy from Tower Rd have been waiting a while. This should avoid dangerous manoeuvres by drivers who have run out of patience trying to enter the

Nepean Hwy trafficâ&#x20AC;?. It has not been stated how long a driver will have to wait to trigger the lights. Mr Billson had sought â&#x20AC;&#x153;a roundabout or full signalisation at the intersection, however this is something VicRoads will not supportâ&#x20AC;?. Former Mt Eliza Ward shire councillor Leigh Eustace has been part of a group of residents lobbying since 2008 for traffic lights ideally or turn restrictions at a minimum at the Tower Rdâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Volitans Ave intersection, which has claimed two lives and seen a number of so-called â&#x20AC;&#x153;injury crashesâ&#x20AC;?. In January he told The News the intersection needed vehicle traffic lights and questioned why the federal government had provided more than $800,000 for a roundabout where Mt Eliza Way meets Wimborne and Kenaud avenues where there had been no fatalities (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Black spot needs traffic lightsâ&#x20AC;?, The News 13/1/15). Mornington MP David Morris, who lives in Mt Eliza, called for the state government to improve the intersection when he spoke in the Parliament mid-April. He said there had been â&#x20AC;&#x153;substantial development of the roads feeding into Tower Rd and to a lesser extent from Volitans Ave, but there are a lot more cars wanting to get onto the highway, and that has contributed to pressure on the intersectionâ&#x20AC;?. He said the most recent serious accident â&#x20AC;&#x153;occurred in December last year when a motorist hit a pole and had to be airlifted to The Alfred hospital. It [saving the driver] was a very close run thing, as I understand itâ&#x20AC;?. Mike Hast

Bowel cancer scan MORNINGTON Rotary is promoting bowel cancer screening this month. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Men and women aged over 40 should take part in the program,â&#x20AC;? member David Lancashire said. Three Mornington pharmacies are on board: Chemist Discount Centre, Bentonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Square shopping centre, Pharmacy Advice, 20 Robertson Dr, Mornington and Priceline Pharmacy, Mornington Central, will supply the bowel scan kits for $10 each. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bowel cancer is usually treatable and beatable if caught early,â&#x20AC;? Mr Lancashire said.

Lives behind the honour roll names ALTHOUGH no longer with us in the physical sense, the lives of the people named on the honour roll in Morningtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Memorial Park come to a life of sorts in a book released on Anzac Day eve by Mornington and District Historical Society. Details of the lives of the 120 men and women on the honour roll who served in the World War I have been researched by the societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vice-president, Val Wilson, and published in her

book, The Names on the Mornington Honour Roll 1914-1918. Who were they? The book was launched in the Mornington Peninsula Shire council chambers in Queens St, Mornington, by Lieutenant Colonel Ian Stewart AM (ret). The book describes the time at war of each individual, their families, jobs, their partners and, for those who survived and returned home, their

resettlement into civilian life. The book is a companion piece to the societyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Our Boys at the Front. This latest project was made with federal government help under the Anzac Centenary Local Grants Program. The Names on the Mornington Honour Roll 1914-1918. Who were they? Costs $20 and is available at the Old Post Office Museum, corner Main St and the Esplanade, Mornington.

Extra turn lane may cause jams CONTRACTORS working for VicRoads returned to the task of constructing a second righthand turn lane at Morningtonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busiest intersection last week after a delay of about five weeks due to â&#x20AC;&#x153;an issue with traffic signal hardwareâ&#x20AC;?, as VicRoads told the shire council. But this might be only a small glitch as residents are predicting the new turning lane could cause a traffic jam at the Nepean Highway end of Main St, the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main northâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;south artery and shopping strip. After completion of the work, three lanes of traffic will be turning into Main Streetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s single northbound lane â&#x20AC;&#x201C; two from the Mt Eliza direction and one from Mt Martha. Mornington resident Paul Smith is among those predicting traffic chaos, especially on busy days such as during the warmer months and on market day, Wednesday. He says the highway end of Main St should be a clearway, which would create a second lane. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been an incredible increase in traffic in the town in recent years,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in danger of becoming even more choked because Mornington is such an attractive place to live and work, and also attracts thousands of daytrippers.â&#x20AC;? He said the ring road needed to be completed to alleviate traffic congestion. Mornington Peninsula Shireâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s communications manager Todd Trimble told The News there were no plans to make Main St into two lanes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably almost impossible to do due to physical and topographical constraints,â&#x20AC;? he said. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now common knowledge among residents that Main St is to be avoided at certain times, especially market day when parking is at a premium.

Back on the highway, workers are putting the finishing touches to the second turning lane. VicRoads decided to install it to remove dangerous â&#x20AC;&#x153;tail backsâ&#x20AC;?, when vehicles queueing at the lights stretch back into the outside running lane. The single slip lane was extended a couple of years ago but is now insufficient at busy times, a measure of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s growth. The work is expected to finish next week. Mike Hast

Fake $50s charges FRANKSTON police last week arrested and charged a Parkdale woman with possessing and making $50 notes at her home. Detective Sergeant Jason Hocking said police seized instruments and materials used to make the fake notes over a six-month period. He believes they were passed in the Frankston area. The woman, 21, has been bailed to appear at Frankston Magistratesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Court in June. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Traders should be vigilant when receiving $50 notes and forward any suspicious notes to police,â&#x20AC;? Det. Sgt Hocking said. The federal indictable offence carries penalties of up to 14 years jail and $60,000 in fines.

Faces of Frankston BEST known for his series of famous selfies Richard and Famous, photographer Richard Simpkinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Locals of Frankston exhibition is showing on the Curved Wall at Frankston Arts Centre until 27 June.

Budget’s $80m blow to port Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE future of the Port of Hastings Development Authority is in doubt following the failure of the state government to refinance its operations in last week’s budget. Hastings MP Neale Burgess has accused the government of “siphoning off” $80 million that should have gone to the authority’s operations. He said the “disturbing and cynical move” was a “further betrayal” from the Labor government which had provided no new funding for the area. “Just five months ago the Port of Hastings was building a real future for our community, already providing more than 100 jobs and preparing to provide thousands more over the coming years,” Mr Burgess said. “Now the Port of Hastings Development Authority is just a shell, with the majority of the jobs gone and with Labor delivering the final blow this week by clawing back the remaining $80m of the project’s funding. “This disgraceful decision is a major blow for jobs, businesses and the economy in the Western Port area and the south east region.”

Tied up: Tugs operating out of Stony Point are being required less and less with the dimnishing the number of large ships using the Port of Hastings. Picture: Keith Platt

On Monday morning the authority said it had forwarded the questions to the government. Within 90 minutes it sent another email: “The Port of Hastings Development Authority has received funding in the budget to continue to manage the day-to-day operations of the port and to facilitate bulk opportunities.”

More jobs are likely to go after Monday’s (18 May) meeting of the development authority’s board, with one insider putting staffing levels down to as low as 10. Neither the Ports Minister Luke Donnellan or the Port of Hastings Development Authority answered questions emailed by The News.

The previous Liberal-led coalition established the authority in January 2012 to plan for a new international container port. The authority is responsible for managing existing trade at the Port of Hastings through an agreement with Patrick Ports Hastings, although the number of ships visiting the port has dropped in the past few years. The authority’s website says round 100-150 vessels are recorded at the port each year, ranging in size up to 100,000 tonnes. However, the reality is that the port has seen a decline in visits by big ships from about 200 in 2010-2011 to an expected 50 this year. The authority also has “principles” which include caring for the environment and partnering with the community. These principles could go part way to explaining why between eight and 11 of the authority’s staff, including its CEP Mike Lean (on at least one day), were available last to plant mangroves in mudflats near Lang Lang. On Monday five of the authority’s staff were helping on mudflats near Grantville. “In a one line budget entry the Andrews government siphoned off the

remaining $80m from our port,” Mr Burgess said. “Even though they said they were going to take independent advice on where to build our state’s second container port from Infrastructure Victoria and go ahead with it within 12 months of taking government - now just six months away - in this budget they’ve cynically clawed back the PoHDA money and stopped the work that even the greenest groups thought was of the highest quality and vital. “As the budget surplus is only built on the [abandoned] Commonwealth EWL [East West Link] funding, clearly the $80 million that belongs to this community has gone elsewhere; maybe even to pay not to build a badly needed road.” Mr Burgess said the Labor government’s attitude towards the Hastings area was in stark contrast towards the “hundreds of millions of dollars were poured into badly needed upgrades to local infrastructure and services”. This spending had included $110m for port development; $16.3m for a new Somerville police station; $4m for a Somerville technical college; $900,000 for the Hastings jetty; and $81m for Frankston Hospital.

New work tells story of our longest creek A BOOK about the environmental and historical elements of the Mornington Peninsula’s longest inland waterway, Balcombe Creek, will be released later this month. A journey along Balcombe Creek has been compiled by the Balcombe Creek Group led by long-time historian and naturalist Winty Calder, a Mt Martha resident. Mrs Calder is the author or co-author of more than 30 books and major reports covering ecology, general history, military history and other topics including the seminal 1975 work Peninsula Perspectives: Vegetation on the Mornington Peninsula, a wideranging view of the peninsula’s natural and social history. She was responsible for much of the early work of identifying and classifying vegetation communities on the peninsula and further afield that formed the basis of the modern-day ecological vegetation class system used by governments and scientists.

Balcombe Creek rises in Mt Eliza and flows through Baxter and the Moorooduc Plain into Port Phillip at Mt Martha. It is one of about 16 major creeks on the peninsula and its estuary at Mt Martha has been the focus of extensive restoration work in recent years by governments and dedicated volunteers. The book will be launched by Dr Ursula de Jong, a board member of the National Trust of Australia’s Victorian branch and chair of Nepean Conservation Group. • A journey along Balcombe Creek will be launched at a function 4-6pm Friday 29 May at The Briars Park information centre, Nepean Highway, Mt Martha. Appropriately, the creek flows through the park, which is owned and managed by Mornington Peninsula Shire. RSVP to 5976 1538. Winty Calder will be available for book signings. Mike Hast

Beleura House opens pottery collection WORKS by acclaimed Melbourne studio potter Klytie Pate go on permanent display at Mornington’s Beleura House and Garden this week in an extension of the property’s gatehouse that has been described as a small museum. Beleura director Anthony Knight said Pate (1912-2010) was the preeminent Australian studio potter and “a deservedly celebrated artist”. Mr Knight said her work was well known to collectors of Australian studio pottery. “Pate was an influential ceramic artist who started teaching pottery in Melbourne before the Second World War. Her talent, flair and endless experimentation shaped a prominent career by the mid-20th century, a rare accomplishment for a woman at this time,” he said. “The Beleura Collection of Klytie Pate ceramic art is housed in a small museum. It might equally be named the Pate Twycross Gallery due to an extraordinary gift from Dr Will Twycross, the artist’s godson. It allows the display, appreciation, evaluation and sharing with our visitors of exquisite ceramic pieces [that are] decorative, functional or purely sculptural. “Dr Twycross proposed the gift of a Klytie Pate museum at Beleura to honour the legacy of his godmother and her husband Bill. The Pates were lifelong friends of his parents, John and Mary Twycross. The family has pioneer links to the peninsula. Recently, Dr Twycross worked with the National Trust to build a gallery at McCrae Homestead where his greatgreat grandparents, the Burrells, lived

Budget errors IN the report ̔Shire rates rise 5.9%’ (5/5/15) funding for some Mornington Peninsula Shire projects was incorrectly stated in millions rather than thousands of dollars. Work at the Emil Madsen Reserve in Mt Eliza will cost $670,000; Hastings activity centre funding is $400,000 and allocations for Rosebud jetty and activity centre will be $850,000. The News apologise if it wildly raised the hopes of people associated with these projects.

Flocking in Skye IT’S that time of the year when caged bird fanciers flock to Skye for Mornington Peninsula Aviculture Society’s annual bird sale and expo, and protesters gear up to oppose it. The show has been running for more than 30 years but recent times have seen animal liberationists vent their displeasure about the whole concept of caged birds. The show starts 9.30am Sunday 31 May at the State Dog Centre, 655 Western Port Hwy, Skye, and includes traders exhibiting cages, foods, seeds and bird accessories. Other aspects include birds on display, a vet providing surgical sexing, microchipping, health checks and general advice on birdkeeping of common budgerigars and canaries, parrots, finches, doves, quail, and exotic species. A society spokesman said all sellers and purchasers have to abide by a strict code of practice. Admittance is $2, children under 8 free of charge. Details www.mpas. webs.com or call 0428 518 646.

Celebrated: The creations of Melbourne potter Klytie Pate, right, have been added to the display at the historic Beleura House and Garden, Mornington. Pate was known for her carved and pierced pots and beautiful glazes.

from 1851 to 1927.” Dr Twycross said that “during childhood visits to McCrae, my mother would point out where Beleura was. She knew the connection between [Beleura benefactor] John Tallis, and the famous artists Christian and Napier Waller, who nurtured Klytie from infancy and guided her artistic destiny”.

He said John Tallis’s own purchases of Klytie pots were treasured in his house, and they had been joined by “a magnificent collection built up over more than a decade by the Tallis Foundation”. John Tallis, the son of Sir George Tallis of J C Williamson theatrical agency fame, died in 1996 and left Beleura to the people of Victoria. The

LETTERS Thanks, Mt Eliza On Saturday morning 9 May the Rotary Club of Mt Eliza held an old-fashioned “tin rattle” in Mt Eliza Village to assist the victims of the Nepal earthquake disaster. The Mt Eliza community did not disappoint and generously donated $2278. This money, together with a further donation from the club, will be forwarded to Disaster Aid Australia (an Australian Rotary club project) which already has a disaster aid response team in Nepal setting up the logistics to move prepositioned stock from India and elsewhere. For further information or donate to the Disaster Aid Australia appeal, call the Rotary Club of Mt Eliza on 0457326632, or go towww. disasteraidaustralia.org.au Alan Thompson, president Rotary Club Mt Eliza.

Port budget blow Port of Hastings Development Authority CEO Mike Lean addressed a meeting I attended on Tuesday 13 May. Brandishing a copy of the Western Port News of 12 May, Mr Lean’s terse opening comment was that the article was “factually incorrect”. Having now read the article, I can’t understand his accusation. Mr Lean said the authority would no longer be managing plans for a second container port at Hastings and that task was now in the hands of Infrastructure Victoria. He confirmed that future staff numbers would be determined at next Monday’s board meeting; that the authority was still funded (but did not reveal the allocation) to explore opportunities to expand bulk port facilities at Hastings; and that although other specialist studies would cease, hydrodynamic studies would continue. So, both he and The News confirm that the authority’s role has been reduced to managing day to day operations and exploring bulk port expansion opportunities. It all looks factually comparable to me. As for Hastings MP Neale Burgess’s opinion that removing $80 million of funding was a disgraceful decision - we had an election. Like it or not, Victorians elected a government whose clearly expressed policy was to have Infrastructure Victoria advise on the best location for Victoria’s second container port. So, why fritter away another $80 million on studies in Western Port? Although Mr Burgess invokes support for his utterances from “even the greenest groups”, I doubt any environmentalists would support wasting taxpayer funds on pointless studies, and neither should Mr Burgess. Jenny Warfe, Dromana Editor: The article ‘Budget’s $80m blow to port’ is on Page 8. The Port of Hastings Development Authority has not responded to an email inviting comment from its CEO Mike Lean.

Government policy It looks as if finally a government in Australia is doing what it said before it got elected. The Victorian state government seems to keep to its pre-election slogan: no port extension for Hastings (‘Budget’s $80m blow to port’, Page 8). I would like to congratulate it for not wasting any more money on the Port of Hastings Development Authority and put the money to some

much needed use somewhere else. With the Abbott federal government reneging on the $1.5 billion infrastructure money to help with chronic traffic issues in Melbourne, the state government needs to find money where it can. It's a pity that it was not possible to leave a little of this money for further environmental work around Western Port, that is if [Hastings MP Neale] Burgess’s crocodile tears are to be believed. I hope Peter Rawlings didn't do himself any harm, sitting on the fence in regards to children in detention (‘Christian arrests in Hunt’s den’, The News 12/5/15). However much he defends his [Liberal] party and blames the opposition for this self inflicted dilemma for Australia, the fact remains that there are still 227 children in our concentration camps. This number was quoted by [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt. Even one child in a detention centre is too much. The other fact is that the Human Rights Commission made the government aware of this unacceptable fact many months ago and was attacked fiercely by the government for it's "boldness" to speak out for the vulnerable. I think kids in detention are much more uncomfortable and probably damaged for life than Peter Rawlings straddling the fence. Close all these camps and stop blaming the victims of our foreign policy. When a group of concerned Christians tried to get some action on the disgraceful imprisonment of children in our concentration camps for refugees, they where dragged away from Mr Hunt’s office by police at the behest of his staff and, one can only presume, Mr Hunt himself. So much for democracy in Flinders. As usual, Mr Hunt in the true Liberal way, blamed the messenger and tried to blacken their motives by asking why they didn't protest about the drowning of African refugees trying to get to Europe. At least in Europe children don't end up in concentration camps almost indefinitely, like here. Shame Mr Hunt, you're losing us down here on the peninsula at a great pace. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Loyal to swami As followers for many years, we have chosen to remain loyal to the Mt Eliza ashram, teachers and community. No one denies that mistakes were made, least of all Swami Shankarananda himself. However, he is still a wonderful teacher and has been a compassionate champion to many. The amount of help he has given to many over the years is amazing and always given in a spirit of love and generosity. It is also worth noting that many of these people leveling accusations against him, willingly stayed for many years. During this time, they appeared very happy to be in his presence. If the situation was so bad and damaging to them, why was their demeanor always so joyous and why didn't they leave? Their claims of fear and guilt just don't fit the way they acted at the time they were there. Accusations of overbearing control are also strongly denied by the many ashramites we have spoken to. In fact, it appears most of the control was by someone who was at the forefront of the accusations and this went against the wishes of

Volunteers’ growing skills for all to see THE involvement and output of volunteers is not always apparent, however their work is being acknowledged this week, which has been designated National Volunteer Week. One group that does keep a low profile but whose efforts are on show for all to see work behind the scenes at the Seawinds nursery at Arthurs Seat State Park. “Tucked into the back of the park’s gardens are the heated greenhouses and work areas where these volunteers propagate up to 20,000 native plants a year,” Sally Nowlan of Parks Victoria

said. “These are used for local re-vegetation projects by Parks Victoria and foreshore groups and committees.” Ms Nowlan said the 30-member volunteers’ group was formed in 1992 and meets twice a week to collect seeds and use propagation methods and seed smoking “to produce thousands of seedlings”. “Some plants are produced for specific orders, such as blackwood trees for Devilbend Natural Features Reserve, and other rare and unusual ones for special projects.”

Swami Shankarananda and Devi Ma. It is individual choice whether to stay or go, but continual attacks on those choosing to continue are both cruel and unnecessary, both to the individuals and the ashram community. BJ and TJ Bateman, Bentleigh East

Killer salt

Praise for swami I have been greatly upset by the vilification of Swami Shankarananda in recent times and feel compelled to write of my positive experience of him and his work. I have attended programs at the ashram in Mt Eliza for over 13 years and during this time I have always witnessed Swamiji to be a man of great compassion, wisdom and knowledge. He has always encouraged people to find their inner light, their power and live from that space. I wish to keep practising his wonderful teachings and be left in peace to do so. I believe the light should be turned on his attackers and what they stand to gain by their campaign of hatred, vitriol and greed. Cheryl MacDonald, Mt Eliza

Six times more Victorians are dying as a result of high salt intake than on our roads. Each year in Victoria, we consume more than 15,000 tonnes of salt – nearly double the upper limit that’s recommended. But by reducing the amount of salt we consume by 30 per cent, we’d save 800 lives each year and $50 million in healthcare costs. Salt increases the risk of high blood pressure, affecting one in four Victorians and accounting for half of all strokes, heart disease and chronic kidney disease deaths. With 75 per cent of salt in the Australian diet coming from processed foods like pizza, bread and ready-made sauces, it’s easy to see how Victorians are eating more salt than they realise, or need. That’s why VicHealth is launching The State of Salt: The Case for Salt Reduction in Victoria as part of Australia’s commitment to a 30 per cent reduction in salt intake by 2025. We will work with governments, health groups, the food industry and the public to increase awareness. Jerril Rechter, CEO VicHealth

Q PETS

A vet with a difference With the opening of Bentons Road Veterinary Clinic in Mount Martha, by local veterinarian Dr Kelly Halls, the surrounding pet community have a friendly and welcoming clinic to serve their pet health needs. Owner and vet, Kelly Halls, has long dreamed of opening her own clinic and has now made the dream a reality. “We wanted to design a clinic that was warm and friendly to enter, without the sterile, clinical feel that can sometimes be encountered when visiting the vets. We want pets and owners alike to feel relaxed and comfortable about entering the clinic and the reception and clinic design has focused on this.” There was a lot of thought put into the design of Bentons Road Vet Clinic, with cat-friendly reception and recovery areas, comfortable dog beds in reception, a cat only consultation room and a quiet room for visiting hospitalized pets. Another of the clinic’s aims has been to alleviate fear for pets when visiting the vet and Kelly’s training in animal behaviour is the basis behind her animal handling techniques that encourage pets to relax in the clinic. “Many pets miss out on important veterinary check-ups because either the pet or the owner feels anxious about entering a vet clinic. Annual health checks are important for all pets but especially as our pets age, the chance to detect the early signs of disease and then treat that problem, preventing it escalating into

a serious health threat is so critical. Pets age so much quicker than humans; on average, one of our years is equivalent to 7 pet years which is why the annual health check is so valuable.” During the annual health check, the pet’s weight, dental health, skin and coat health, orthopaedic function, heart and lung function and eye health are all assessed. It is a great opportunity to ask about any small detail that may be concerning you about your pet. “I believe that I communicate well with owners about what is going on with their pet and why certain procedures or treatments may be recommended.” Bentons Road Veterinary Clinic is conveniently located across from the Bentons Square Shopping Centre with easy footpath access and ample parking on site. Many of our clients love that they can walk their dog here without having to drive the car. The clinic is a relaxed and welcoming place where you and your pets are always welcome so please come on in and make friends with us soon. Bentons Road Veterinary Clinic is at 136 Bentons Road, Mt Martha. Phone 5976 4629. www.bentonsroadvet.com.au

Light falls on tenders in a dark, not stormy, night IN ROSEBUD, “a dark and stormy night” was threatening. This, the much-derided first sentence of the 1830 novel Paul Clifford was apt, even though this night was merely dark, pre-meeting. The popular English novelist Edward BulwerLytton followed up his opening purple prose with this: the violent wind was “fiercely agitating the scanty flame of the lamps that struggled against the darkness”. Phew! We had Neons. That’s winter on the Mornington Peninsula, too, the cold darkness exacerbated by a distinct lack of biscuits for those warming their frozen fingers on a cuppa before the meeting. But CW digresses, and will digress a moment more, on a subject that came up at the previous council meeting – repayment of a $10.45 million unfunded super loan. Regular readers may recall the debate that raged about whether this should be repaid over three years or a decade. Dire warnings were issued by advocates of the longer repayment. We’d all be rooned, one councillor not named Hanrahan warned. Another hinted at conspiracy. A third case was put at a decibel level favoured by teens with earplugs attached to iPods. So, which was the cheapest way to repay the money? CW resorted to Money-Zine on the internet. Here is what it calculated:  Over three years at six per cent (about current shire interest on loans) the total repayment would be $11,444,732.87 – never forget the cents – for total interest of $994,732.87, or $331,577.49 interest

a year for three years.  Over 10 years at six per cent, $13,921,970.94 would be repaid, for interest of $3,471,970.94. That is $347,197.09 annual interest for a decade – about $15,500 a year more but extending for the full 10 years. I rest my case, m’Lud. Repayment over three years was the right decision – assuming Money-Zine’s loan amortisation calculator can be trusted. A last word on this: neither CW nor some of the gallery regulars could recall staff bringing a rescission motion to the council chamber, aiming to overturn a decision made by councillors voting in the community's parliament. It was not a good look: it should not have occurred, we agreed. End of digression. The meeting on 11 May featured a petition from 21 supporters of the contentious RACV Club development plan at Cape Schanck, followed by questions from Cape Schanck residents – warned by the agenda of this petition – returning serve with some ferocity, raising such matters as a large increase in vehicle movements that will result from the huge development. A tender for the Balnarring Recreation Reserve master plan excited some interest, possibly related to what someone had described as the “RollsRoyce” ablutions block to be built at Mothers Beach, Mornington, at a cost

of some half a million dollars by the successful tenderer. Dromana resident Ron Musgrove stated in a recent letter to the editor of this newspaper that the winning tender was “$83,000 a seat” for six toilets and two outside showers. Shire staff told him “it is going to be a lovely building”, he wrote. “The building,” Mr Musgrove wrote. “has got to be smaller than a family home. How the hell does it cost half a million?” Many shire residents might echo that question. Certainly the Balnarring proposal drew questions on the shire tendering process, which attracted companies from as far afield as Eltham, Hoppers Crossing and Sunshine. Oh, and Dromana, too, home base of Maw Civil Pty Ltd, which won the work with a price of “$469,081.50 (excluding GST)”. Never forget the cents! No toilet block is mentioned in the tender, except one to be demolished. The work includes building three netball courts, moving cricket nets, a car park, drainage and “other associated works”. Officers were closely questioned about how the tender procedure works. The iPRO Live system, staff said, is a contractor registration system including financial checks of tendering companies – including “if they’re going to go into bankruptcy” – any legal matters, WorkCover claims, any other matters against which the shire needs safeguards. And so on. But what do we know about the provider of the information,

officers were asked. The response to that was also reassuring. Cost estimates have been on CW’s mind, involving a far humbler project. A quote of around $60,000 that came in to the shire was seen by a retiree very experienced in evaluating such jobs. Haggling and horse trading ensued, resulting in the quoted priced being almost halved. Another highly experienced semiretired person in the same field said that often companies with a full book of work would put in a tender price “a bit over the top” for a job, not really expecting to win but very happy if they did. Holidays in Tuscany all round. Perhaps the shire could examine ways to take advantage of all the skills lying idle around our idyllic villages. A wealth of experience is playing golf and meeting cobbers for coffee day in day out. The Devil invented golf for idle hands. CW once did work for the Certified Practising Accountants and wishes he had kept a copy of an article written when compulsory competitive tendering was imposed on councils. The article predicted two things would occur. First, that over time council officers would lose their practical expertise and close knowledge of road building, rubbish collecting and so on, and second, private tenderers would grow large locally and globally and councils would be left with no option but to decide work on price – possibly prices decided in foreign capitals. Do the names Veiola and Transurban ring a bell?

Foreshore car park plan ‘off course’ THE shire council has released a draft management plan for Safety Beach foreshore that will guide its use over the next 15 years. But Safety Beach Foreshore Landscape Committee is concerned replanting work it had done since 1999 could be removed to enable car parking areas to be sealed and marked. Committee president Tom McCullough said that according to the draft plan, which was approved for public exhibition mid-April, at least two parking areas would encroach on plantations. “It’s a hostile environment to grow plants. Volunteers from our group have laboured long and hard for many years and it would be very disappointing to see them go,” he said. Some areas had been replanted multiple times after plants died due to wind, salt spray, drought and other factors, he said. Mr McCullough questioned the logic of reducing some parking areas and expanding others with no net gain of spaces. He said the committee was also concerned some

proposed parking access points were not well placed, the worst being a foreshore exit opposite the BP service station at the Dromana end of Safety Beach where Point Nepean Rd becomes Nepean Hwy and curves inland. “This is a very busy intersection and we can’t work out why you’d put another car park exit in there,” he said. The draft plan by Sorrento-based Mark Travers Landscape Architect will replace one done in 1999 by Tasmanian consultant Inspiring Place. Most of the recommendations made in 1999 were completed although some took until 2013, including the building of the Bay Trail bridge at Sheepwash Creek. Two areas of the foreshore have suffered substantial erosion in recent times – the so-called Tassells Beach dog off-lead area on the Mt Martha side of Martha Cove marina entrance and an area south of Safety Beach Community Centre where a rock wall had been damaged. Mr McCullough said cliffs above the dog beach needed to be stabilised. The mayor, Cr Bev Colomb, said Safety Beach

foreshore “holds important values around the natural environment, cultural heritage and recreation for local residents and visitors alike”. Key actions outlined in the draft plan include: • Improving public amenity in the reserve. • Improving pedestrian accessibility to the reserve. • Reviewing car parking. • Improving efficiency of boat ramps. • Stabilising beach erosion and improving maintenance. • Creating awareness of local history and the natural environment. • Protecting dunes and vegetation. The plan can be seen at shire offices in Rosebud, Mornington and Hastings; at shire libraries; or online at: www.mornpen.vic.gov.au/Whats_On/Your_Say Large format plans are on display at the Atrium Safety Beach and the shire’s Mornington office. Public comment deadline is Friday 12 June. Post to Manager Strategic Planning, Mornington Peninsula Shire, Private Bag 1000, Rosebud Vic 3939 or email to: customerservice@mornpen.vic.gov.au

Reaching out A GUIDE to help parents and other family members reach out to young people at risk of suicide has been published by beyondblue. The Family Guide for Youth Suicide Prevention gives advice on how to have a conversation with a young person who may be at risk, what factors place young people at risk and the warning signs to look for. About 350 people aged 15-24 suicided in 2013, the latest year for which data is available. This is double the number killed in car accidents. “Families of young people are often really worried about them, but are too afraid to ask them if they are thinking of hurting themselves,” beyondblue CEO Georgie Harman said. “That needs to change because talking about suicide does not cause suicide. In fact, asking questions may prevent suicide by showing the young person that someone cares.” Ms Harman said the family guide contains potentially life-saving information, along with other practical tips and evidence based advice to help family members support at-risk young people. “It may be exactly what’s needed to help you save a life or change one for the better,” she said. The free guide includes a fourminute video featuring young people talking about how a young person might act if they are experiencing suicidal thoughts, and what works and what doesn’t work when it comes to youth suicide prevention. The guide has specific advice on how to help young people who are experiencing cyberbullying. A young person in crisis can call Kids Helpline on 1800 55 1800; Lifeline on 13 11 14, 24 hours a day seven days a week; or beyondblue 24 hours a day, seven days a week on 1300 22 4636.

Wreckers lined up for Ambassador Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE sounds of a wrecker’s machinery will provide a backdrop to sighs of relief and the popping of champagne corks when demolition of the former Ambassador Hotel begins next month. Owner Joanna Kordos plans to replace the 40-year-old building at the northern Nepean Highway entrance to Frankston with a four-storey apartment block (‘The Ambassador faces axe’, The Times 30/3/15). She plans a champagne breakfast to celebrate the start of work to replace the building that has been inhabited by squatters, linked to drug deals and the target of vandals with apartments “more luxurious than anything available now in Frankston”. Prices for the 37 upmarket apartments will range from $309,000 to $695,000. Ms Kordos bought the building with architect’s plans and has secured a one-year extension on her building permit from Frankston Council. “Squatters come and go, but they won’t be a problem once it’s demolished,” she said. Talks being held with the body corporate of units sitting closely behind the Ambassador could see Ms Kordos contributing towards an “overhaul and upgrade” of the outdoors section of that property. Such as change would help increase the value of the units “and lift up the neighbourhood”. “Just knocking the Ambassador down will mean there will be different

tenants in those units.” The owner of a recently finished “model” boarding house at Noble Park – with plans for up to 10 more – Ms Kordos said her “passion” was now fo-

“Half of Melbourne has had some sort of stay at the Ambassador over the past 40 years.

RATEPAYERS are again being asked for their views on Mornington Peninsula Shire’s waste recovery plan as pressure is said to be growing on the landfill at Rye, predicted in some shire reports to be full in two years or less. The current draft ̔Municipal Waste and Resource Recovery Strategy’ follows several previous similar documents, including the 2009 ̔Municipal Waste Management Strategy’ and a proposal in 2013 following the Environment Protection Authority's refusal for a tip at the old Pioneer quarry on the Arthurs Seat escarpment. The new community consultation was approved by councillors at the 11 May meeting. It is available on the shire website and the Let’s Talk Waste “community engagement” website. The latest report’s major option for waste disposal is to enlarge the Rye landfill facility by opening a new disposal area, or “cell”. This was the shire’s preferred option in 2009, when Rye was considered capable of accepting waste until 2030. But by June 2013 this date had dropped to “between 2016 and 2018”. In the current report Rye is estimated to be full by 2017, increasing the urgency of finding an alternative place to dump rubbish. However, the report states that “full development” of Rye would extend its life to 2041. Even limited development would ensure Rye remained open until 2032 or 2028, according to the report. Cost to households would vary according to which option the shire adopted, from $28.69 (partial development of Rye’s western portion) to $58.36 for transfer of all waste off the peninsula from a holding area in Dromana.

The report is silent on the destination of waste if the Dromana option is chosen. The closest offpeninsula landfills are the SITA facility at Hampton Park, about half an hour away, and at Dandenong South. The shire has previously favoured trucking waste 102 km to Werribee or to slightly closer landfills at Sunshine and Deer Park. The most favoured option – alternative waste technology (AWT), sophisticated high-temperature incinerators, as used widely in the US and Europe – is not available in Victoria. The Pioneer quarry appeared to be the anticipated solution for waste disposal until fierce community opposition and the EPA ruled it out. The report states that an additional $6.5 million would be required over the next three years for the draft strategy. It does not say whether the $2.52 million raised in 2014-15 from the optional green waste bin service will contribute toward this sum. “Sixty per cent of the funding is associated with extending the Rye landfill. The other large budget items are the weekly summer recycling service ($350,000 annually), extending the opt-in green organics to include food … and extending ‘no charge’ green organics weekends to include Friday ($130,000 annually),” the report says. Extending the green organics to include food would cost $130,000 to establish and involve an annual cost of $300,000, it adds. The report says the strategy “embodies best practice measures … and takes a number of critical steps towards moving the shire closer to its vision of zero waste”.

Business as usual as offices close – RDNS Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au CLIENT services formally provided by nurses at the former Royal District Nursing Service offices at Rosebud and Frankston are now being handled from Moorabbin. The service has given assurances that the change will not affect “service levels”. A revamp of RDNS operations across the state has also led to the loss of 45 full time nursing positions. The RDNS says there were no forced redundancies at Rosebud or Frankston offices, although seven management staff “chose to take redundancies rather than work within the new structure”. Australian Nursing and Midwives Federation Victorian branch secretary Lisa Fitzpatrick said the union had “given our full support to RDNS members who have been affected by the major staffing changes, including redundancies”. “While we cannot give specific redundancy numbers for Rosebud and Frankston, overall the RDNS in Victoria has lost about 23 full time senior nurse positions and 22 full time equivalent Grade 4 registered nurse positions.” Ms Fitzpatrick said the RDNS expected the Grade 3 district nurse specialised role to take on a broader focus as a care manager. “This will see about 24 full time Grade 3 registered nurses moved to the lower positions.” The future of the Rosebud wound clinic – which describes itself as “providing vital home nursing care for local communities since 1885” - is still under negotiation with Peninsula Health. The union says it is “awaiting further information to relay to members”.

RDNS spokesman John Allin said the changes would not impact on “exemplary” front-line care to clients. “Advances in technology mean staff members don’t need to come into the office to work,” he said. “All of our clients will be treated in the same way as they have always been. “It should come as no surprise that some clients would be unsettled to hear there have been redundancies but our service levels will not be affected.”

Award for volunteer THE chair of Peninsula Health’s Gay Lesbian Bisexual Transgender Intersex and Queer community advisory group, Julian Conlon, won the Outstanding Individual Achievement by a Volunteer: Supporting Diversity Award at the recent Minister for Health Volunteer Awards. Frankston Hospital’s stage 3 volunteer team, of which Mr Conlan is a member, was also nominated in the Innovation category. Frankston Hospital’s Pink Ladies Auxiliary president Pauline Ellerby was nominated for a life-time achievement award for her 24 years of service. “We are very proud to have such a dedicated volunteer as Mr Conlon at Peninsula Health,” Peninsula Health CEO Sue Williams said. “Julian is passionate about healthcare for everyone, bringing humour and warmth, as well as his own healthcare experience, to his work.” The win marks the sixth year in a row a Peninsula Health volunteer or volunteer group has won a Minister for Health Volunteer Award.

Cancer fight: Dr Leon Fisher backs an appeal by Peninsula Health to raise money for ultrasound equipment with calls for healthcare services to plan for a rise in pancreatic cancer.

Plan now for pancreatic cancer rise, says doctor HEALTHCARE services need to plan for a rise in pancreatic cancer, Peninsula Health’s Endoscopy boss Dr Leon Fisher has warned. His warning coincides with this week’s launch of the 2015 cancer appeal to buy the $500,000 cancer detecting machine. “An endoscopic ultrasound and endoscopic bronchial ultrasound machine is a critical piece of equipment for diagnosing and treating a range of cancers,” Dr Fisher said. “Currently, local residents must travel outside our catchment zone to access diagnostic services for pancreatic cancer and are often put on long waiting lists. “We have CT scanners, MRI scanners, surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy … everything is at Peninsula Health except the EUS/EBUS machine.” Research in the Medical Journal of Australia

reveals pancreatic cancer is on the rise. “The five-year survival rate is only five per cent, so early detection is vital,” Dr Fisher said. “With an EUS/EBUS machine available locally, diagnosis will be faster and more accurate. It would happen at Frankston Hospital within days of initial scans, resulting in faster treatment. “The alternative is invasive surgery, which carries serious risks, especially for frail patients.” Peninsula Health CEO Sue Williams is confident the appeal target will be reached. “We are very fortunate to have such an active and engaged community who genuinely care about their local healthcare services. Every dollar will make a difference and all donations over $2 are tax deductible.” To donation online visit peninsulahealth.org.au

Fireworks crew basks in glow of the job Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A NAME synonymous with spectacular fireworks displays all over the world has its Victorian base at Balnarring. Howard & Sons Pyrotechnics – one of the country’s best-known fireworks artists and producers – is run locally by master pyro-technician Rusty Johnson. The designer and programmer uses advanced digital pyrotechnic and musical software to bring his vivid imagination to life. “Our state-of-the-art computer firing system and design software enables our performances to be choreographed with music and all multimedia. As well, the use of special computer firing hardware allows fireworks to be fired from an unlimited number of locations to produce the ultimate extravaganza,” he said. Starting with the Sydney-based firm about 20 years ago, Mr Johnson each year oversees about 100 displays in Victoria and Tasmania. Major events have included the Sydney Olympics and Melbourne Commonwealth Games, as well as a host of New Year’s Eve fireworks displays, Sydney’s Easter Show, Moomba, Mornington’s Australia Day carnival and the Balnarring festival. “We are able to feature a city’s landmarks - such as waterways, buildings, bridges and architecture to capture the audience in a pyrotechnic spell, taking them on a magical journey,” he said. Examples include extravagant displays featuring the Sydney Harbour and Westgate bridges. The company not only displays but

Blast off: Rusty Johnston with his wares at the Hastings warehouse last week. Picture: Yanni

makes most of its own pyrotechnics. Success at international events includes last month’s win in one of the biggest fireworks competitions in the world – the Da Nang International in Vietnam. Howard’s 21-minute display outclassed those of competitors from South Africa, United States, Poland and the host country, with fireworks lighting up the skies over the Han River. Their ‘Colourful Serpent Symphony’ theme is said to have thrilled spectators with its dazzling fireworks display.

“The team’s performance clearly showed off their long experience of designing and manufacturing fireworks, and producing perfectly choreographed shows, along with the applications of an integrated firing system,” the organisers said. “After gaining third place in 2009 it was very pleasing to come home with the gold this year,” Mr Johnson said. His staff includes two full time pyrotechnicians and up to 17 contractors – mostly local – who work with the event management and production teams to ensure every phase of a project results

in the best pyrotechnic performance from concept to realisation. “We are a close knit team,” he said. The Balnarring resident is married to Jennii and they have two children Maddix, 11, and Nyssa, 5. He enjoys fishing on his boat Secret Men’s Business in Western Port, sampling local fine food and wine and has a passion for red Italian motorbikes. The fourth generation firm of Howard & Sons began with Sydney Howard, great-grandfather of the current NSW-based owners, who set up the family business in 1922. Impetus

in the early days came from fireworks displays at the opening of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, the Opera House, and the bi-centenary celebrations of Captain Cook landing in Australia. Things did not always go to plan as the sale of fireworks was banned in Australia in the late 1970s and the company, which had depended on retail and wholesale sales of fireworks, began a new focus as a display-only team. This side of the business, quite literally, has gone off with a very big bang.

Storms rip more sand from Portsea Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au THE sorry saga of the destruction of Portsea’s front beach continues with further damage being done during last week’s windy weather and rough seas. The extent of the erosion is increasing with oceanlike waves now also pounding either side of the sandbag wall, or revetment, installed by the state government in late 2010 at a cost of more than $1 million after the beach and foredune started being swept away in 2009. Last week’s waves removed thousands of tonnes of sand and foredune from the eastern end of the beach, exposing the roots of old trees as

well as rocks under the foredune, destabilising temporary steps (which were closed to the public on Thursday) and damaging more than 20 of the 1000 sandbags. A huge section of foreshore at the eastern end collapsed onto the beach and was washed away. Josh Clark, general manager of Dive Victoria, which is based in Portsea and uses the pier for its diving tours, said it was a windy week “but we get them two or three times a year at least”. He said the recent erosion had exposed rocks not seen in living memory as well as the remains of an old jetty. “There used to be an old pylon sticking out of the water by about 30 centimetres. Now it is well exposed with shorter pylons next

to it also visible.” Old hands say the beach has lost sand before including in the 1940s but it always returned. And erosion in earlier times did not destroy foredune areas. Colin Watson of Portsea foreshore advisory group, who has been assertively lobbying the state government for several years asking it to find a solution, said the waves he saw last Tuesday were the biggest he had seen in more than 60 years of visiting the beach. “Big waves are now pounding a part of Fishermans Beach west of the pier.” He said the extent of the swell hitting the shore had widened in the past six months or so. “There is some hope on the horizon as a

12-month study of waves and the sea floor off Portsea will be completed in June,” he said. Mr Watson said it might be possible to reshape the shipping channel that is believed to be causing the bigger swell hitting Portsea. Divers, environmentalists and some locals blame the dredging of The Heads in 2009 for the destruction of the beach. The Port of Melbourne Corporation, state government authorities and the now-disbanded independent dredging umpire – the Office of the Environmental Monitor – blamed natural causes. The cause may soon be known but then there will be debate about who will pay. However it is unlikely Portsea beach will ever be the same again.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Train service to remain the same Compiled by Melissa Walsh THE secretary of the Frankston Football Club acknowledges with thanks a donation of £1 1s from Mr Booth. *** MR S. S. Price, dentist, of Melbourne, wishes it known that he will attend at Garroods’ Hotel, Frankston, this week-end, for the convenience of those who may wish to consult him. *** THREE of Miss O. Sherlock’s pupils were successful in the musical examinations for May, held by the Musical Society of Victoria. Among the names of the students who have passed are: Honors in piano, Pass in Theory, Willmott Croskell. Pass in Piano, Dorothea Thornell, and Florence Vines. *** THE married ladies of the Frankston Methodist Church have proved their ability to run a social evening. Judging from the finished style which was everywhere in evidence on Friday night last, it was not the first social they have had a hand in. On account of not having advertised long enough, the attendance was not as large as it otherwise would have been, but the sum of £1 17s was taken for the Church Organ Fund, for which object the effort was made. A new organ for the church was urgently needed, and since being installed has made things much pleasanter for everybody concerned, and to pay for it the church people have decided to hold socials now and again, to raise funds. Sixpence was all that was asked for

admission, and included a splendid programme of songs and recitations, and a first class supper. Mrs Jackson presided, and before closing the entertainment, called upon Mr Corlett to move a vote of thanks, as there was not a married lady present who had not helped, in some way, to make the evening a success. Mr Jackson seconded the motion, and thanked all who had contributed towards the evening’s enjoyment, including Mrs Malcom, Mrs M’Cormack, Mrs Lawrey, Mrs Thompson, and Miss Sherlock. The married men have volunteered to see the next social through, and it has been fixed for some time next month, when it is to be hoped their efforts will be crowned with success. *** A MEETING of the members of the Frankston Patriotic Committee was held in the Mechanics’ Hall on Wednesday evening, Dr Maxwell in the chair. The meeting was poorly attended, owing to the inclement weather. On the minutes of last meeting being confirmed, Dr Plowman (hon treasurer) read a statement of the state of the finances which showed that after the last meeting there was a balance in hand of £1 3s 8d, since then there has been collected £80 5s 2d, making a total in hand of £81 8s 10d. Dr Plowman said that all the amounts received had been acknowledged through the ‘Standard,’ but he had received 10s from a gentleman at the train one morning just as it

was leaving, and when he came to enter it he had forgotten the donor’s name so he had entered it as ‘Unknown.’ The only expenses incurred was 25s for postage and printing. He suggested that £50 be forwarded to the Belgian Fund out of the money in hand. The chairman said that it was for the meeting to decide how much would be sent. He thought the whole of the £80 was earmarked for that fund. Captain Sherlock suggested that £60 be sent, and moved to that effect. Se- conded by Mrs Deane, and carried, Captain Sherlock, on behalf of the ladies’ committee said they were still pegging away, and though might not be able to send in as much as they did before, they would forward what they could to the treasurer of the fund. Mr C. P. Watson, on behalf of Master Bachelor Garrood (3 years old) handed in £4, contents of his money box, to be given to the Belgian Fund. Dr Plowman here stated that he had received up to date for the fund the handsome sum of £242 7s 3d. Hearty votes of thanks were passed to the following for their efforts in raising funds :Mrs Lewis, Miss Trenoweth, Mrs Dial, Langwarrin Tennis Club, Ladies Collecting Committee, and Master B. Garrood. A meeting of the Presentation Com- mittee was held immediately after the above meeting, when the treasurer (Dr Plowman) reported that

after the last lot of watches and medals had been paid for and all other expenses met, there was a balance in hand of £7 2s 2d. The proceeds of the last concert am- ounted to £11 10s 2d. It was resolved, on the motion of Cr Oates, seconded by Mr Young, that the presentation of souvenirs to several other of the residents who had enlisted from this district be held over till the next public presentation. *** THE tender of Messrs Watt and Mathierson, Sorrento, of £352 15s 9d has been accepted, for repairs to jetty and approaches, at Portsea. *** OWING to the rain on Monday evening the entertainment to have been given by “Linco” the Master Magician, in the Frankston Hall, was postponed till this (Saturday) evening, when it is to be hoped the weather will prove more favorable, as we understand the entertainment is well worth seeing, and has only to be seen to be appreciated. *** NEXT Monday (Empire Day) the children at the Frankston school will be entertained in the school grounds in the afternoon and in the evening an up-to-date picture show will be given by Mr Alex Gunn, of Melbourne,in the hall, to which they will be admitted for the small sum of one penny, adults being charged 6d. any surplus to go towards the Belgian fund. The doors will be opened at 7 o’clock and pictures show at 7 30 sharp. ***

MR Frank Church, one of the best known and respected residents of the Langwarrin district, passed away peacefully, at the Alfred Hospital, on Saturday evening last, May 15th. Deceased, who was 47 years of age, had resided in this district for the last 30 years, and by his thorough integrity and fine genuine character, had earned the respect of the whole community, and much regret is felt by all who knew him at his death, at so early an age. *** THE train service on the Mornington and Stony Point line is, the Railway Commissioners told a deputation from the Federated Progress Associations of Mornington Peninsula on Tuesday, considered to be ample for present requirements. They explained that they could not run the morning train to Melbourne and the evening train from Melbourne express north of Frankston, because this would necessitate additional trains, which present conditions by no means justified. With the advent of electrification they hoped to be able to arrange through runs over longer distances than at present. They were considering a request made some time ago for an additional train about midday between Frankston and Mornington. They promised to send an officer of the department to the district to inquire into the suggestion to establish a flag station between Crib Point and Bittern.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

A right royal stuff up By Stuart McCullough WHAT a wasted opportunity. Naming a child after its grandparents and great grandmother can’t help but feel like a massive compromise; one where the potential for something truly, mindblowingly awesome was squandered. Charlotte Elizabeth Diana. I suppose, as far as names go, they’re all right. But they’re hardly going to set the world on fire, are they? How about something a little more memorable? Like Dakota, Madison, Blaze or Lolita. Honestly, it’s as though the Duke and Duchess have never been to Moe. The least they could have done is throw in a random ‘z’ or silent ‘ph’ somewhere. Just to make things interesting. I get it – they’re aiming for something along more traditional lines. That’s fine, but it’s still no excuse for being boring. Too much monarchy and not nearly enough anarchy for my liking. But there are still great traditional options available if you’re willing to go a little further back in time. Bathsheba for example, is as traditional a royal name as you’re ever going to find. So too is Jezebel. Granted, there’s a long queue for the throne and (barring some Westeros-style hi-jinks) her chances of ever becoming Queen are slim at best, but there are plenty of splendid names for Princesses there for the taking. You can’t tell me that the world wouldn’t loved another Princess Buttercup, especially since the first one was fictional and has since married the President.

Princesses Fiona and Bubblegum are both wonderful role models, notwithstanding that they’re both cartoons. Or, if you prefer your princesses real, Princess Leia would have made a lot of nerds very, very happy. Or, if you really want to bring the multitudes with you, surely Xena would have been an inspired selection. But no dice. In fact, as I understand it, Beyonce wasn’t even on the short-

list. That’s a snub, if ever there was. Good luck convincing Jay-Z to perform at the christening. It was, so we were told, a very special day for our country. I beg to differ. If it were an event of any real significance, chances are the child would have been given a traditional Australian name. Like Beryl or Shazzamataz. Maybe even Edna. I once knew a girl called Debbie who was an amateur magician and traded

under the name ‘Abracadebra’. Honestly, what’s the point of being part of the British Empire if they’re not going to throw us the occasional bone in the baby-naming department? The fault, clearly, lies with the parents. They ought to be the last people allowed to name their own child. You’d have thought that after the debacle that was ‘George Alexander Louis’, their families would have intervened. Even the mere fact of three names rather than the regular two is grounds enough for a check-up from the authorities. These kinds of important decisions should not be left to two people who, frankly, are probably a little emotional. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that this is the kind of situation that SMS phone polls were invented for. Now that child number two is here, I’m beginning to suspect they’re not giving my suggestions even the slightest consideration. I’ll admit I was a little crushed when, presumably because they both like Seinfeld but ‘Kramer’ was a little too out there; they named their first-born ‘George’. I still maintain that ‘Vincent’ was a great suggestion. Traditional, but not too obvious. Besides, having a ‘Prince Vince’ would have been great for everyone concerned. Or, if wanting something a little more low key, they could have avoided giving the young prince a name at all and just identified him with a symbol. It has to be said the response to the entire blessed event has been kind of

absurd. To be honest, I’m not sure why anyone’s fussed. I mean, good luck to them, and all, but it does seem as though the reaction slightly outweighs the significance of the occasion. Chances are, more column inches will be expended in this country on the fact that George now has a little sister than were needed to cover the entire British election. There’s a whole range of magazines that have gone absolutely, stone-cold berserk. Perspective, people; that’s all I’m saying. Sometimes I wonder if our unwillingness to sever the final, fragile cords to the Mother Country is based on an irrational fear that it will adversely impact the women’s magazine market. That’s not an especially sound basis on which to make your constitutional arrangements, but there you have it. Now that I think about it, we don’t have to put up with this kind of nonsense. We, the people, have a right to choose the names of those who will lord over us in a kind of feudal hangover that makes North Korea look progressive. The revolt starts here. Strap yourself to your device of choice and make your feelings known as loudly as possible. With one, united voice, let us declare and almighty, ‘thanks, but no thanks’ to Princess Charlotte and a hearty ‘congratulations and welcome to the world’ for the latest addition to the right-Royal brood, Princess Muffin-Fingers Supreme. Long may she reign. stuart@stuartmccullough.com Mornington News 19 May 2015

A Grain of Salt THE “I’m sorry” 2015 budget, delivered by Doctor Jekyll (Joe Hockey) after banishing his alter ego Mr Hyde in favour of a Liberal re-election. Money slashed from the arts (who cares?) and overseas aid; again who cares? My pension stays firm, but it was never going to change before 2017 and let’s be honest, cost increases for prescriptions and the like will reduce its value anyway. *** The Libs have always trumpeted the “better for small businesses” mantra without evidence of this fallacy, or more accurately being no better or worse than Labor, so it’s nice to see the supposed proof in the pudding. Not sure if it will give them extra votes. In all my years I rarely came across a small business owner who voted Labor, more a case of looking after their own. I recall many a discussion as a lad with small business owners on their perceived advantages with the Liberals, eventually abandoning the cause to save my voice. *** There are many things we can blame Billy Shorten for if inclined: sucking up to anything pro-USA, seconding Tony’s new security laws, conveniently ignoring those poor lost souls in detention facilities (Pacific Solution?) never forgetting the certainty that Billy, if ever elected PM, would retain negative gearing, family trusts and superannuation concessions. However, it’s surely time for Tony Abbott to say something, anything, without the Labor blame tail at the end? Prediction, assuming Abbott vs Shorten: Tonto Tony WILL win the next election. *** Aside from former foreign minister

Alexander Downer’s holier than thou puffed up (ruling class) pronouncements on Schapelle Corby and the Bali 9 back in 2006 and the inexcusable actions of our Australian Federal Police in dobbing rather than arresting them in Australia, I’ve ignored it all. Another long sad story inviting thousands of opinions here and in Indonesia. An opportunity for politicians to say what they think will have popular appeal, to be in the news, in our faces. A big difference between Downer back then and our present Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, but who can really tell? Political nonsense, hypocrisy reigns. I prefer a good detective movie. We get some answers and they catch the guilty scoundrel. Reading between the lines is one thing; reading between thousands, mostly half-truths at best, is impenetrable. *** The Chinese government is cracking down on the practice of hiring strippers to perform at funerals, commonly hired to attract more mourners and bring good fortune to the deceased person in the afterlife; at some of $415 per event. Apparently people are dying to see them. Strippers (and pole dancers) have always been a mystery to me. I’ve seen them on television obviously, but why would customers give them money? Silly old/young men. Assuming an afterlife it may be worth a look-see; better still audition the strippers before God steps in? *** When King Ferdinand of Aragon sent colonies of immigrants to the Indies in the 16th century he made the wise stipulation that no one should be included who had studied jurisprudence, lest lawsuits should

pollute the New World. He judged (with Plato) to furnish a country with lawyers and doctors is a bad action. Nowadays those gentlemen would include psychologists surely? *** Why is publisher Anne Summers forever carrying on about the Church disallowing females into leading roles in the world’s major religions? Something about keeping women in their place? Maybe in some countries, but not in my world. No mention of the influence of females in our television industry and particularly the ABC, nor of the female situation in the Uniting Church. I have no objection to a female becoming a Pope or in any other position of consequence. The result would be no different than male domination. More ladies toilets, perhaps. *** Following on, we have this seemingly urgent involvement of a Sex Discrimination Commissioner in sport, particularly AFL and NRL? “Gender asbestos”, as in male domination being good for nobody and (I gather) excluding women from high levels of sport? A change for the better, an impact across society, the potential to create change in the nation, meaningful change, change the dynamics. Nobody denies the success of the Australian women’s cricket team, netball, basketball, cycling, never forgetting tennis and swimming, but these fine words coming from our Commissioner (Elizabeth Broderick) are surely way over the top. We wait and watch her AFL “men on board” as in Matt Finnis at St Kilda, David Matthews at GWS, Gary Pert at Collingwood and Brendon Gale at

By Cliff Ellen Richmond, as they plot their course for the AFL and our change for the better, whatever that means. *** The Southern Peninsula Community Care people provide transport (for a small donation) to anywhere on the Mornington Peninsula (and further) for residents seeking medical appointments; doctors, dentists, physios or hospitals. Volunteer drivers. They arrive on time, wait for the duration of the appointment and return the client to doorstep. Call 5986 5255. *** The Rye CCTV saga is already a decade long. Why is the council not coming good, similar to the partnership with the state government for Hastings CCTV, albeit after a 2 year wait in dealing with United Energy? Mind you, anyone who has had dealings with United Energy will know it’s easier to deal with Indonesia.

*** WADA yada yada yada...Coming“Terror suspect caught peeing in a public place”?...Charlotte-not the best name for rhyming slang... Strange how millionaire Mick Malthouse complains how tough life can be… Danny’s public transport; a 2 hour trip to Frankston, 21 new rail carriages and Bob’s your uncle; merci mate...The ABC’s John Faine of the Thought Police, a subsidiary of the Political Correctness Citadel, says “I’ve never picked Collingwood and I’m not about to start”.

Eagles fly high as Blues stumble NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt HASTINGS dropped from second place on the Nepean Division leader to fourth after being overrun by Somerville on Saturday. It was the first loss of the season for the Blues and once again highlighted how close the top teams of the competition were. After trailing by 14 points and being kept goalless in the opening term, the home side hit back in the second and led by seven points at the main interval. Luke Clark, who finished the afternoon with five majors, started to get his hands on it in attack and Josh Mulheron began to get on top in the middle of the ground. The third quarter was an arm wrestle with the Blues maintaining their ascendancy. Paul Rogasch and Lance Brouwer, along with Kain Stratton, were doing wonderful work in defence for the Blues and Luke Hewitt was proving to be a handful in the forward half of the ground. At the last change, Hastings had its nose in front 6.7 (43) to 5.7 (37). Somerville was rumoured to be going into the game without prime mover Tim McGennis, however, he took his place. Adrian Ridout came straight back into the team after three quarters in the reserves. He missed four weeks with a hamstring. Cal Dixon also played his first game in a number of weeks after looking to be out of favour. The Eagles needed to find something in the last quarter and they did, booting five goals to two to run out 10.8 (68) to 8.12 (60) winners. The Blues squandered opportunities in the final 25 minutes, booting five behinds. Ben Sedgewick was again at the top of his game for the Eagles with another outstanding performance in defence, while Dixon showed his capabilities through the middle of the ground. Scott Simpson turned around an average performance last week to be one of the Eagles’ best and Jedd Sutton was again one of his team’s best performers. The Eagles are looked upon as a bit of a glamour side, however, they have a defensive quality and a hunger that people underestimate. Against Red Hill, Sorrento and Hastings, the Eagles have been required to find a little extra, get up off the deck and fight. They have responded every

time against quality opposition. The Eagles have won four of their five games (only defeat was a shock loss to Pearcedale), however, sit in fifth place on the ladder. Rosebud is nestled neatly in third place on the ladder after a commanding victory against Dromana. In a match that didn’t reach great heights and was marred by poor skill execution and turnovers, the Buds still remained the better of the two teams throughout the contest and recorded a 10.7 (67) to 6.15 (73) victory. Rosebud’s Tom Baker was the key difference between the sides with five of Rosebud’s ten goals. Jason Bristow and Rob Forrest set up the win with blistering first halves of footy. Each collected 26 possessions and although they faded in the second half, Ryan Spooner and Rhys Bancroft picked up the slack. Sam

Kremich also did a superb job on the dangerous teenager Sam Fowler, who failed to hit the scoreboard. The Buds control of the match was evident by the fact that they had 80 to 56 marks, while their run receives were also in their favour at 43-30. Inside 50’s were about equal though. The home side also had a lot more purpose taking the balI into their forward line, while the Tigers seemed to bang it in and hope. Matt Jones was outstanding for the Tigers, as was Terry Wheeler and Sam Guerts. Frankston Bombers made it two wins on the trot after easily accounting for Devon Meadows, 17.17 (119) to 10.13 (73). The Panthers again let themselves down with a poor first half and although fighting back in the second hour, the damage had already been

done. Zac Longham was outstanding for the winner with five goals. Sorrento got back on the winners list with a massive 28.14 (182) to 4.1 (25) victory over Tyabb. Leigh Poholke booted six goals for the winners, Nick Muller snagged four and a further nine players hit the scoreboard. Troy Schwarze was back from overseas and Ryan Jeffrey returned from suspension. Jon Croad and Daniel Grant were both missing but expected to be back next week. Miles Pitt heads overseas this week. Tyrren Head continued his dominant season, while Chris Morgan was dominant in the ruck. Tyson Sparkes and James Cottrell were the best of the Yabbies. Red Hill maintained its position at the top of the ladder with a 15.10 (100)

to 5.14 (44) victory against Pearcedale. Hillmen coach Tony Blackford said after the game that the result wasn’t a reflection of the game. “It really wasn’t until the last quarter that we were able to shake them,” Blackford said. Michael Chaplin booted four for the winners and Matt Vagg kicked a couple against his old side. Rye sits in second place on the ladder after smashing Crib Point. The Demons were never challenged and recorded a 18.15 (123) to 11.6 (72) victory. The Magpies, who were so impressive last year with a grand final appearance, are now sitting in the bottom three with just one win and will not play finals in 2015.

Former AFL star sets the standard INTERLEAGUE By Toe Punt FORMER Richmond, North Melbourne and West Coast Eagles forward Aaron Edwards has cut short his Bali holiday so that he can represent his league at the country championships this weekend. Edwards had organised to go to Bali for a week, leaving last Sunday straight after the game against Frankston YCW, return on Saturday morning to play against Ovens and Murray. However, upon hearing that the

team was travelling together by bus to Albury on Friday, Edwards rearranged his flights to ensure that he could join the team on the bus. Peninsula Division chairman of selectors, John Hynes, who played at Carlton, captained Frankston Dolphins and coached Edithvale-Aspendale, said Edwards’ commitment typified the dedication of the group in 2015. “The reality is that we were embarrassed by Geelong FL last season and we all learned lessons from that, from the top at league level right through to the players,” Hynes said. “We have picked a large squad and

the commitment level of them cannot be faltered. “A leadership group pretty much picked itself and they have driven the culture among the group – Aaron (Edwards) is one of those, along with the likes of Ricki Johnston and Warwick Miller. “The reality is that Peninsula Division is in the best three leagues in the state. If we lose this match, we drop to five or six, which isn’t good for us. “The players are committed to the cause and we will pick the absolutly strongest team we can. “The likes of Lachy Wallace and

Rourke Fischer (Collingwood VFL) are both right to go and we have some Frankston Dolphins who have filtered back. “Unfortunately we don’t have the likes of Ash Eames, Jimmy Messina and Anthony Barry (all injured) and Michael Gay (family holiday) but you can be assured we’ll be the best possible team. “That hasn’t always been the case in the past few years, despite the fact we have recorded some good results,” Hynes said. Nepean Division coach Ben Holmes said he too was excited about the com-

mitment level of his charges. “We picked a squad of around 70 and we have had 40-plus on the track every training session. That doesn’t include the guys who don’t train because they are a bit sore but come to training anyway,” Holmes said. “The commitment level is fantastic this year and I think the players, coaches and clubs need to take the credit. “We’re all looking forward to improving our ranking and breaking into that top 10,” Holmes said.

Pythons on the slide PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt PINES continued its slide down the Peninsula Division ladder after copping a hiding at the hands of Frankston YCW on Saturday. The Pythons started the year in superb fashion and won its opening four games of the season, however, it is starting to realise that the powerhouses of the competition have a little more to offer. Mornington was able to touch the Pythons up last week and it was Frankston YCW’s turn to give them a bit of stick on Saturday. Coming off a loss against Langwarrin the previous week, the Stonecats again started slowly in their match against Pines. The Stonecats trailed at quarter time before kicking seven goals to one behind in the second quarter to open up a commanding 38 point lead. The second half saw the visitors kick seven goals to four to record a 16.21 (117) to 8.7 (55) victory. Anthony Bruhn booted six goals for the winners to give him 24 for the season, while Dave Bodley took his season tally to 18 with four majors. Kevin Lylak in his second game back was again one of the Stonecats’ best while Paul Minchington played his best game for his new club. Guy Hendry was outstanding for the Pythons with four goals and his brother Beau was also at the top of his game. It was hard to find many other good performers across the match though, although Paul McLean-Wilson tried hard. Despite two heavy losses in a row, Pines still sit in third position on the ladder. Mornington maintains its position in second place on the table after a solid 23 point win against Edithvale-Aspendale. What we are seeing at the moment is that there are two sides (Mt Eliza and Mornington) flexing their muscles against those sides that we believe are good enough for the finals but not ready to challenge for the title. The Dogs laid the foundation for the win with a five goal to one first quarter. To Edithvale’s credit, they rallied and were able to restrict the home side’s onslaught and keep them to six goals apiece after the first change. Emilio Bitters and Michael Gay in the ruck were outstanding for Mornington while Steve Mannix and Matt Clark shared the top votes for the Eagles. Edithvale coach Graeme Yates said that his club was going through a transition phase and that consistency would be the biggest challenge this season.

“We lost a lot of players in the off season and while we have the nucleus, we have a lot of young boys who are trying the find their way,” Yates said. “We are a young side learning but I think we are very capable of playing finals and that’s the aim.” Langwarrin picked up where it left off last week against Frankston YCW and booted eight goals to one in the opening quarter to blow Seaford away by almost ten goals. The Tigers were able to boot 13 goals to Langwarrin’s 15 after the first change but the damage was well and truly done at that point, going down 23.12 (150) to 14.9 (93). Gerard Brown continued his outstanding season for the Kangas with five goals to have 18 for the year while Matt Naughton kicked four resting forward. Naughton has been rewarded for his season with an interleague call up. However, it was a couple of recruits who stamped their mark on the club. Dale Binks, formerly of Tyabb, was outstanding for the winners, as was former Yabbies’ skipper Ethan Rahilly. Travis Baldock was fantastic too for the winners after crossing from Chelsea Heights. Ricki Johnston is in career best form, which is why he is in the leadership group of the interleague side. Rourke Fischer, fresh from playing at Collingwood in the VFL last week, was again Seaford’s best player, while Chris Fortnam and Luke Smith also worked hard. Mt Eliza didn’t get things all their own way against Chelsea, winning 15.11 (101) to 11.6 (72). The margin was 29 points in favour of the Redlegs at quarter time but the Gulls were able to boot nine goals to eight after quarter time. Justin Van Unen booted four for the winners and Dave Willett and Scott Lockwood finished with three each, Darren Booth and Ben Landry were outstanding across four quarters. Hudson Thomas snagged four for the Seagulls while Jason Clark, Todd Gardiner, Alex Smout and Jayden Attard were among the best players on the ground. The Gulls went into the game without coach Brent Guerra, who is suffering from a hand injury. Bonbeach won its third match of the season, beating Karingal 19.18 (132) to 9.6 (60). Chris Bryan and James Maxwell booted three each for the Sharks while another ten players kicked goals. Blake Simpson kicked four for the Bulls and was clearly among his team’s best, while Aaron Lees was also superb once again.

E C N A R A E L C E H T S S O R AC ! E G N A SALE R 2015 Toyota Camry bold in looks and price TOYOTA has trumped the bold new styling for its 2015 Camry with aggressive prices that have not been seen on Australia’s best-selling midsize car since last century. Camry’s latest upgrade is far more extensive than usual with a sweeping redesign from bumper to bumper and the arrival of a dynamic Australian-developed sports version produced exclusively for local customers. New-look Camry is also available for the first time with a suite of potentially life-saving technologies, including a pre-collision safety system designed to help avoid an accident or reduce the severity of an impact. The scope of Camry’s transformation extends emphatically to the bottom line with customers paying up to $5,000 less compared with the equivalent car in the superseded range. Prices start at $26,490 for petrol variants, which is the cheapest launch price on an automatic Camry in at least 18 years – even though today’s car is three generations newer and has significantly expanded safety, comfort and convenience features. Even more aggressive is Toyota’s value-focused drive-away strategy on all grades – adding just $2,500 to cover all on-road costs including dealer delivery and, where specified, optional paint (usually $450). Camry’s hybrid-powered line-up has never been more accessible with the entry price

tumbling to a remarkable $30,490 – a figure that includes additional equipment over its petrol equivalent. Toyota Australia’s senior executive director sales and marketing Tony Cramb said designers and engineers had injected Camry with more passion and greater emotional appeal by crafting a more vibrant and compelling outline. “This is the boldest-looking Camry yet – and even bolder is the commitment we have made to Australian car buyers by dialling up Camry’s appeal and features while going ‘back to the future’ with last-century pricing,” Mr Cramb said. “The price for today’s petrol Camry Altise is just $90 more than its equivalent launched 18 years ago in 1997, the automatic Camry CSi – a vehicle without features that are now standard such as seven airbags, vehicle stability control, anti-skid brakes, a reversing camera and touchscreen audio display. “Equally significant is that Camry is now available in two guises for drivers with distinctly different tastes: the well-known Camry that is more comfortable and capable than ever and a true sports version that brings to life the fundamental excitement of driving a car.” More than 800 parts in the updated Camry have been changed or re-engineered. Every exterior panel except the roof has been redesigned, creating a more expressive and athletic appearance with prominent character lines.
