The point for ideas POINT Nepean made news again last week, but not for the usual reasons of political conflict over its future use. On Thursday, hundreds of secondary students and primary pupils were at the national park as part of the Australia wide Kids Teaching Kids Week. The week provides time outside the classroom for students to think about threats to the environment and ways they can be overcome. The trip to Point Nepean also included learning about Aboriginal history and culture. Coinciding with the visit by the students came calls from state Liberal MPs for buildings at Point Nepean to be used to house refugees fleeing war torn Syria. That idea was not so well received by their federal counterparts. Dunkley MP Bruce Billson and Flinders MP Greg Hunt - who have both in the past been involved with state-federal squabbles over the point’s future - did not see it as a viable option. See Pages 6 and 7 for reports on the school’s program and the suggestion Point Nepean be used to house refugees. Dance lesson: Students are shown how to use dance to impersonate kangaroos and emus.

Flood maps blamed for $2m work loss David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au COMPLAINTS about delays and cost increases may lead to a postponement of the implementation of new rules for building in flood prone areas of the Mornington Peninsula. Councillors were told in June that new flood maps were an improvement and that 20,000 properties were no longer designated as flood-prone and more could be removed from that designation as work proceeded. However, an “experienced builder on the southern peninsula” has now told council officers that the new flood

map system “instantly stopped $2 million worth of my work, frustrated me and my customers and had a net result of costing my business approximately $100,000”. “Great! All for no good reason. The system was not broken,” he said. Other points made by the builder included:  “I have been building on the southern peninsula for 40 years and have built several hundred houses and have not had one project flood or even look like flooding.” He had never seen a building site flood in Rye, Blairgowrie or Sorrento.  “I have discussed this with every other builder, draughtsman and build-

ing surveyor I know in the area and are all of the same opinion.” He had seen the flood maps that were presented at a Nepean building permits information night. “I looked at specific areas, in particular the sand dunes at the back of Blairgowrie, which are very elevated and could not possibly flood as it is all loose sand. “I pointed this out to [municipal building surveyor] David Kotsiakos and he answered, ‘But there is limestone under there and the water doesn’t go down and it can flood’. “I suggest he has no understanding of what actually happens in this area and has made assumptions on data that is irrelevant.”

 “Whatever the shire was doing prior to February this year seems to be adequate to identify the very rare problem areas that may exist. However, the shire has seen fit to adopt a response process for a so-called problem manifested by the information that has been taken as fact but is not. “I suggest anyone who does not believe this should dig a hole anywhere in Blairgowrie and try and fill it up with water.”  It was unbelievable, the builder said, “that we have to pay $50 to find out if we should apply to pay $250 to then receive a report. If deemed necessary this system could be, just pay the $250 and send back $200 if not

required.” The new maps were “state of the art” as a result of mapping and weather modelling. They aimed to set floor heights for new buildings, to keep them above predicted flood levels. Cr Graham Pittock told the June meeting: “Building [work] is being severely hampered. The problem is that land is not properly designated and builders can’t be sure [of getting floor levels correct] in flood-prone areas.” Cr Tim Wood added: “On a lighter note, if you look at that mapping of the Mornington Peninsula as being floodprone, we’re in a worse state than the Netherlands.” Mr Kotsiakos replied: “For a different reason, yes.”

Shire urged to back East Timor’s gas field claim David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire councillors are being urged to pressure the federal government into giving East Timor the chance to earn billions of dollars from undersea gas fields. “It is disgusting for a wealthy advanced country like Australia to literally steal part of a rich gas field from one of the poorest, least developed and needy nations on earth, Cr Tim Rodgers said. On Monday Cr Rodgers was set to tell council colleagues that it was time Australia entered into a more equitable agreement so that East Timor (TimorLeste) received a greater share of prof-

its from the rich offshore gas fields. “We are calling on the Australian government to immediately start negotiations on setting fair permanent maritime boundaries with Timor-Leste and to re-submit to the jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice and the International Tribunal on the Law of the Sea,” he said. The shire has a friendship relationship with the Timor-Leste district of Lospalos. The gas field issue has festered for years, with the Australian government having effectively repudiated international rules dealing with seabed boundaries some 13 years ago. It has since refused to negotiate permanent boundaries. A scandal erupted in 2013 when Ti-

mor-Leste accused Australia of having planted listening devices in its cabinet office to eavesdrop on confidential Timor Sea Treaty discussions. It launched a case at the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague to pull out of a gas treaty it had signed with Australia. In March 2014, the International Court of Justice ordered Australia to stop the spying. A report to councillors at Monday night’s meeting said: “If these [seabed] boundaries were set in accordance with International Law, the significant fields of gas located outside the treaty zone of co-operation would belong to Timor-Leste as part of its exclusive economic zone. “If so, one such field – the Greater

Sunrise Field – located just 150 kilometres from Timor’s shore, may generate some $40 billion for Timor-Leste. “Yet another such field – Laminaria Corallina – has yielded $2 billion in taxes and royalties for Australia since 1999, all of which would flow to Timor-Leste if the maritime boundaries were set in accordance with International Law.” Cr Rodgers, a strong supporter of Timor-Leste and sponsor of the motion put to council, said: “All this poor, struggling nation’s problems of health, education and infrastructure would be solved” were Australia to cede it a fair share of the hydrocarbon wealth locked in the fields. The report to council backs this: “Even a minor adjustment of these

maritime boundaries in accordance with International Law would shift billions of dollars of potential revenue from Australia to Timor-Leste. “Yet Australia refuses to negotiate a permanent maritime boundary with Timor-Leste placing in jeopardy its legacy in, and friendship with, TimorLeste.” Cr Rodgers said 22 of Victoria’s 79 councils – nearly 30 per cent – had friendship relationships with TimorLeste. He said the nation’s “excellent coffee” can be bought from any shire office, he said, and Timor-Leste arts and craft were often on sale through the shire.

Dance is a reminder of Nazi horrors STUDENTS from Rosebud Secondary College have used dance to illustrate the tragedies of the Holocaust. They performed "One Of Us" during the annual Wakakirri story-dance challenge at Frankston Arts Centre where students create seven-minute pieces incorporating dance, drama, costume, lighting, set, music and song. The college's dance piece followed the story of two Jewish sisters being torn apart by the Holocaust, the statesponsored persecution and killing of millions of Jews by German’s Nazi regime and its collaborators. Leaders and choreographers of the college’s Wakakirri piece, Sophie Armstrong and Alexandra Dellaportas, said they hoped highlighting the importance of talking about history would prevent events like the Holocaust being repeated. The importance of the topic had been stressed by the fact that some students had not heard of the Holocaust before joining the Wakakirri team. The team won the Best Historical Story award and will be performing at the awards night at Hamer Hall, Wednesday 16 September.

Sparks fly over coal delivery Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au

Coal protest: Men, women and children outside the office of Flinders MP to protest at the mining of coal and its export from a port within Queensland’s Great Barrier Reef. Simon Hawking, kneeling centre, helped carry a crate of coal into the office. Picture: Supplied

Mr Hawking said the “one concession� was the welcoming, by Mr Hunt’s office staff, of children bearing gifts “in the form of animal-shaped balloons representing the Great Barrier Reef marine life�. Mr Hunt, in a response requested by The News, said the Coalition government “inherited a reef from Labor that was on the watch list and on the way to being listed as in-danger�. Government efforts to protect the reef had led to it being removed from being in-danger listing by the World Heritage Committee. “The committee praised Australia as a global leader in its management of the reef,� Mr Hunt said. Protesters are fighting against the Indian-based Adani Mining’s plans for Carmichael open cut coal mine near Moranbah in central Queensland and the export of coal from Abbot Point, near the Great Barrier Reef. The government’s approval for the mine was set aside by the High Court in August after being presented with

“If his staff were so intimidated, maybe they should not be working in a political capacity. I can assure you that our ‘intimidating’ was only 50 per cent of the example set by the federal government during public question time,� Mr Lenzo said. “We are only taking our guidelines and limits of what is proper from their example and trying to not sink to their wretched depths of shamelessness.� Sam Regester, a GetUp senior campaigner, expressed the organisation’s “regret if staff members were upset�. “The handing over of a gift of balloon sea creatures and a big bucket of coal by children, their parents and supporters was intended as a symbol that the community urges the environment minister to choose coral over coal,� Mr Register said. “If the minister doesn’t want coal polluting his office, then why would he allow mega-mines in the Galilee Basin that risk polluting local water supplies, impacting communities and risking the future of the Great Barrier Reef?�

evidence of a bungle within Mr Hunt’s department which meant there were no provisions to protect the endangered yakka skink and ornamental snake. The falling price of coal and an announcement by the Commonwealth Bank of its withdrawal as Adani’s advisor may mean that the project’s “lifetime resource value of at least $300 billion� may stay in the ground. Mr Hunt, although asked for his views by The News, did not comment on the bank’s action or provide an estimate of the number of jobs likely to be created by the coalmine. GetUp describes itself as one of Australia's largest campaigning communities and claims to have more than 800,000 members. “We're an independent, grassroots, community advocacy organisation that seeks to build a more progressive Australia and hold politicians to account.� Joe Lenzo, of Safety Beach, said he too helped carry to coal into the office and accused Mr Hunt of exaggerating the incident.

GetUp this week said Wednesday's rally was “just the beginning�. “We've got an audacious plan to keep the pressure up on our environment minister (and your local member) as he decides whether or not to re-approve Adani's beleaguered coal port and mine,� it said in an email calling supporters to a meeting at Hastings Community Hall on Thursday. “This Thursday we're going to hit the streets of [the electorate of] Flinders and start collecting messages from your neighbours and fellow community members who love the reef too.� In the letter published in The Age Saturday 5 September Mr Hawking identified himself as one of two men who carried a crate of coal into Mr Hunt’s office “as a symbolic manifestation of what the minister was consigning the nation to� [by permitting the Adani Mining coal mine in Queensland]. “We were equal parts astonished, amused and despairing to be asked indignantly, ‘So you’re going to pollute our office with coal?’�

THE “advocacy organisation� GetUp has a planned campaign to keep up the pressure on Flinders MP and Environment Minister Greg Hunt over threats to the Great Barrier Reef from coal exports. Mr Hunt last week accused members of a GetUp protest of upsetting and intimidating a staff member at his Hastings office. But one of two men who carried a crate of coal into the office on Wednesday alleges the version of events as outlined by Mr Hunt is “far from the truth, an incredible fabrication�. Simon Hawking, of Somers, said Mr Hunt’s reaction was “disappointing and so misleading�. Mr Hawking cheerfully admits to carrying the coal into the office, but denies intimidating or threatening anyone. The staff member’s comment - “So you’re going to pollute our office with coal?� - when relayed to the protesters outside, was met with “laughter and disbelief�. Mr Hawking said he told the staff member that the crate of coal was “symbolic of what Mr Hunt was consigning to the nation�. “I absolutely and categorically deny there was any threatening behaviour,� he said. “There were three police happily chatting to the crowd and, surely, they would have been called in? I’ll leave it to other people to draw their own conclusions.� Mr Hawking said it was disappointing when citizens concerned about the environment were made out to be bullies and intimidators. Following the demonstration he had written to The Age quoting Mr Hunt’s staff member because the “irony in the message needed to be spread further�. “I couldn’t believe the irony when she used the word pollution,� Mr Hawking said. Mr Hunt last week told The News that the behaviour of two men during the anti-coal mine protest was “utterly unacceptable�. “A member of staff was deeply upset and intimidated by two of the protesters,� Mr Hunt said. “This aggressive behaviour by two male protesters towards a female staff member is utterly unacceptable and should be condemned by GetUp. “I certainly hope their behaviour is not representative of the organisation and did not represent the general behaviour of the delegation.�

Students take world view on environment SECONDARY students and primary pupils from throughout the Mornington Peninsula took a break from their normal classrooms on Thursday to discuss ways of solving the world’s environmental problems. More than 250 students and pupils from 11 schools and colleges were at Point Nepean National Park as part of the national Kids Teaching Kids Week. Around Australia the week sees 55,000 students putting the environment and its challenges under the microscope. In the months leading up to their Point Nepean visit students prepared by making presentations on the dilemmas and solutions to such issues as conserving fossil fuels, protecting endangered marine and terrestrial wildlife, creative recycling, waterways care and climate change. While at Point Nepean they shared their knowledge through craft, quizzes, experiments, story telling, music and games. They were also given an insight into Aboriginal culture and its historical connection with Point Nepean. “Kids Teaching Kids inspires our local students to want to know more. It promotes a very

tangible link for kids with their local environment, helping the next generation of leaders understand how global issues impact special places like our national park,” Parks Victoria’s district manager for South East Melbourne, Libby Jude said. “We’ve seen dynamic community partnerships and mentoring programs emerge in the lead up to Kids Teaching Kids like the Friends of Hooded Plovers partnering with eager young environmentalists from The Peninsula School.” Ms Jude said the students had raised $3000 to help the Friends of Hooded Plovers buy iPads to monitor the birds and access live breeding and population data. “Through mentoring, we’ve connected the dots with the community and our national parks, and raised awareness of how hooded plovers are threatened,” Lois Greene from the Friends of Hooded Plovers said. Ms Jude said it was “both reassuring and refreshing to hear the passion and wisdom of our young visitors … and to know that the legacy of protecting our special places will live on through the next generation”.

No go for Point Nepean refugees ‘home’ Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au THE Point Nepean quarantine station will not be reopened to provide sanctuary for refugees fleeing the conflict in Syria despite suggestions last week it could be a suitable base for asylum seekers. Liberal state opposition leader Matthew Guy had urged Labor Premier Daniel Andrews to consider housing some Syrian refugees at the Point Nepean station “at the end of the Mornington Peninsula” early last week. “In 1998-99, the Kennett government and the Howard government managed to bring many hundreds of Kosovar refugees to that site,” Mr Guy said. “If Daniel Andrews won’t do anything with that site then we should use it for good rather than letting it rot and how we could use it for good is use it to house in a peaceful environment many hundreds of Syrian families who are fleeing war and persecution and oppression.” The Premier said advice received from bureaucrats noted the Point Nepean barracks are in no condition to house refugees but Mr Andrews said Victoria is prepared to play its part in accepting its share of 12,000 Syrian refugees the federal government will allow to permanently resettle in Australia for humanitarian reasons. Mr Guy’s proposal to house refugees at Point Nepean was also nixed by his federal Liberal colleagues. Dunkley Liberal MP Bruce Billson said the Syrian refugees, unlike the

Kosovars, will not return to their country of birth so a “temporary refuge” is not needed. “It will be mainly women, children and families identified from persecuted minorities for whom the conflict in the Middle East and how it might unfold will see no opportunity for them to return to their homes,” he said. “It’s a humanitarian program that sees those allocated visas settled in the community, not in a particular or single facility.” Mr Billson’s cabinet colleague, Flinders MP Greg Hunt, also noted it is “unlikely that a single central facility will be required”. “In all likelihood they will be integrated into the community as they arrive in family units,” Mr Hunt said. “This is as opposed to the temporary places that were required to house the Kosovar refugees.” Mr Hunt said the Point Nepean quarantine station could be an option to be investigated if such a centre is required. Nepean Liberal state MP Martin Dixon backed Mr Guy’s suggestion that Point Nepean could be used to house Syrian refugees. “Thanks to over $40 million dollars invested in utilities and infrastructure by the federal government the former Coalition government, Point Nepean is now a much more viable option for refugee accommodation than it was when we hosted the Kosovars in 1999,” he said. “The Premier is showing his complete ignorance regarding Point Nepean as these funds have been specifically invested to prepare the site for

future accommodation and visitation needs in accordance with Labor’s own 2010 master plan. “While in principle I support the utilisation of Point Nepean for humanitarian purposes, and aside from the physical accommodation infrastructure, I would like to see more details of how refugees can be managed, cared for and occupied during their stay.” The Abbott government has agreed to resettle 12,000 refugees from the Syrian conflict in Australia in addition to 13,750 asylum seekers accepted into the country each year. The federal government is also providing an extra $44 million to help

more than 240,000 people in camps displaced by the Syrian conflict with food, clothing and shelter as winter approaches. “This will take the total Australian government contribution – humanitarian contribution – to people on the borders of Syria and Iraq under the former government and under this government to some $230 million,” Mr Hunt said. Mr Billson hoped the decision to permanently resettle 12,000 Syrian asylum seekers means “they can make a real go of their new life in Australia”. “It’s a very generous, warm-hearted but clear thinking response,” he said.

Lawyer talks about helping refugees A LAWYER and volunteer at the Asylum Seekers’ Resource Centre will speak about refugees at a Southern Women’s Action Network meeting, 10.30am Sunday 20 September. Gabriella Bornstein, a member of the resource centre’s speaking team, will discuss the issues faced by the organisation and its efforts to assist, advocate for, empower, and educate refugees seeking asylum. The venue is the Mornington Peninsula Shire offices, corner Victoria and Queen streets, Mornington. Southern Women’s Action Network members endeavour to promote social justice and equality for all nationalities and creeds. Ms Bornstein’s family background instigated her interest in helping refugees and her other volunteer work has been teaching English and numeracy in Tanzania. Details: 0400 835 486.

Skylift work to start WORK on the Arthurs Seat Skylift is set to begin on 5 October, according to Parks Victoria. The sites of the upper and lower stations will be fenced off to allow for tree removal and excavation. Parks Victoria’s Libby Jude has said the public will be notified of the works, and of alternative picnic areas, in through newspaper advertisements in coming weeks. Ms Jude, district manager for southeast Melbourne, says school bus pickups and drop-offs will be relocated at Seawinds Gardens car park near the public lavatories for the construction period of up to 18 months. This is more than a kilometre from the existing bus stop. Many parents are said to be unhappy with the location, which will mean that “kids who walk home from the bus stop will now have to traverse a lonely trail back to the summit”, according to one parent. She said parents had not been consulted on the matter. The Seawinds location was decided after meetings between Mornington Peninsula Shire, Parks Victoria and the school bus group. “The message is clear,” the parent said. “They may have permission to do what you want in the park, but don’t mess with our kids.” David Harrison

Stories come alive at library An independent voice for the community We are the only locally owned and operated community newspaper on the Mornington Peninsula. We are dedicated to the belief that a strong community newspaper is essential to a strong community. We exist to serve residents, community groups and businesses and ask for their support in return.

THE art of live storytelling is alive and well in Rosebud. The printed word took a back during National Book Week at Rosebud Secondary College when students listened to personal stories told by people from a variety of backgrounds. Among the “living books” were Paul Santamaria QC; Anthony ‘Tok’ Norris, a musician from The Black Sorrows & sound engineer at

RMIT; Sorrento CFA firefighter Neil Schlipalius; photographer Yanni Dellaportas; Rosebud College teacher and crime fiction author Brendan Murray; Federal Police officer Steve Burt, who served in Timor and the Solomon Islands; police dispatcher Rachel Murray; sculptor Blair Sturzaker; and Kokoda trekker Shane Nelson, whose documentary A mile in a man’s shoes has been entered in the Peninsula

Short Film Festival. The college’s library manager Michelle Peck said as many young people connect online so she wanted to create an opportunity for some old fashioned storytelling. “Small groups of students were able to engage in a personal conversation with their chosen living book while they told stories about their lives,” Ms Peck said.

Three injured in mosque attack Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au THE leader of a mosque at Langwarrin believes a vendetta is being waged against his congregation. Imam Syed Wadood Janud said three men were attacked at the mosque by intruders at about 9pm on Friday 4 September, leaving one victim with a broken nose and the others with facial injuries. The Bait-ul-Salam Mosque in Leisureland Drive is the Victorian headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, an Islamic movement whose members are persecuted by Muslims in some other countries, particularly Pakistan. Members of the community were said to be in shock at the cowardly attack and security at the mosque is to be increased with the addition of CCTV caneras and higher fences. Imam Janud said three men who abused and assaulted members of the group had “probably been here before�. “[Racism has] been an ongoing issue and we have had people come in four times in the past three months,� Imam Janud said. “But this is the first time they have confronted and assaulted our members physically and that’s why the police became involved.� Senior Sergeant Ron Barbury, of Carrum Downs police, is appealing for witnesses to the incident in which two Muslim men in their 60s and a

45-year-old man were assaulted. A 61-year-old Cranbourne man had his nose broken and the others sustained facial injuries. Senior Sergeant Barbury said the assault was “obviously prearranged�. “The mosque is out of the way and does not attract attention,� he said. “You would have to know it’s there to go there. It’s not like it’s on a main

highway. “It was certainly a targeted attack.� Iman Janud said a man in his 20s entered the Muslim community centre about 9pm and began “racially abusing and using indecent language and cursing� its members. “He was asked to leave and our members followed him out but there they were met by two others and the

trouble began.� The offenders had jumped the fence to gain entry to the mosque premises. “They are the same fellows; they are targeting us. It is sad that these few people in the community are against us. “We endeavour to reach out to the community so that people know what we stand for.�

Despite the violence the centre will not be seeking criminal charges. “We will ask the police to have them come and visit the mosque so that they can see who we are and to discuss any issues they may have,� Imam Janud said. “We want to be part of the community in Langwarrin and, hopefully, after talking with them we may change their minds.� Senior Sergeant Barbury said he was planning to visit the centre this week “to reassure members� of police support. A pressing topic of discussion will be a 10 October rally by far-right fringe groups – perhaps United Patriots Front or Reclaim Australia – protesting against mosques and their teachings generally. “We have been advised a call to protest has gone out and – in the event it goes ahead – we will have a police presence there,� he said. “We are not sure how organised these people [the protesters] are so we will be preparing just in case.� Senior Sergeant Barbury added: “What drives people to do these kinds of acts I don’t know. Whether they like it or not, we have a lot of different religions and races in our community and we have to live harmoniously. Targeting a particular group of people for whatever reason is pointless and wrong.’’ He said the three offenders were in their early 20s, Caucasian and wearing hooded jumpers.

Man charged over ferry bomb threat A DISGRUNTLED French Islander who allegedly threatened to “blow up” the Stony Point to Tankerton ferry, Thursday 3 September, has been arrested and charged with making threats to kill. He has been bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court in January and banned from using the ferry in the meantime. Detective Leading Senior Constable Darren Sherren, of Hastings CIU, said the man, 60, made the threats by phone to the Public Transport Victoria complaints line. “He was not happy with the service and certain things were said, including threatening to blow up the ferry with explosives as the result of a long, ongoing feud. “The PTV then relayed the nature of the call through to us and we raided a French Island property and seized firearms.” Police also travelled on the ferry that afternoon to ensure passengers were safe. The ferry runs between Stony Point, Tankerton wharf on French Island, and Cowes, Phillip Island. It is scheduled to run all year but varying weather conditions make departures problematic. This has led to frequent complaints from passengers, claiming the service is poorly run and the operator unresponsive. The service has been operating in Western Port Bay since 1994 and has

grown from 25-passenger vessels operating to French Island only, to two high speed passenger catamarans running to Phillip Island and out to Seal Rocks. PTV says the large tidal variation in Western Port and volatile air and sea conditions make operations difficult. It does not guarantee operation of the ferry “in the interest of ensuring passenger safety”. Steve Taylor

Appeal change MOTORISTS will soon no longer be able to apply for an official warning based on a good driving record if they are caught speeding at more than 10kph over the limit. However, they will still be able to apply for an official warning under provisions for special or exceptional circumstances. A good driving record will remain a basis for appeal for motorists detected speeding at less than 10kph over the limit. The changes to the official warning notice criteria come into effect on Monday 21 September. “Speeding remains one of the biggest killers on our roads and this is a reminder for drivers that they are responsible for making sure they are aware of their surroundings, including speed limits, at all times,” road policing command Superintendent Kevin Sheridan said.

US-based backing to help job skills program A NEW York-based philanthropic fund is helping finance a new employment skills program to help up to140 locally unemployed young people in Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. The unveiling on Friday of the new Brotherhood of St Laurence program, Creating Futures for Youth, coincided with the release of figures showing youth unemployment in the area was nearly 20 per cent. The program - funded for 12 months by the New York-based Citi Foundation - offers career guidance, work placements and job search training from the Brotherhood's Frankston headquarters, the High St Centre.

The program, which will reach out to local employers, schools and service clubs, has been launched as unemployment rates for 15-24 year olds in Frankston and the peninsula area are “stubbornly high”, according to Brotherhood of St Laurence chief Tony Nicholson. Federal Department of Employment's figures in July showed youth unemployment in the area reached 18.6 per cent – 15 per cent above the Victorian average. "Young people today need strong supports in a much tougher job market to gain even entry level work,'' Mr Nicholson said. ''We know youth unemployment has

a scarring effect on young people and hurts their future prospects, including the chance of even holding down a steady job further down the track.'' Citi Australia's head of corporate affairs, Guy Matthews, said investing in young people to connect them to jobs is at the core of Citi Foundation. John Catto-Smith, who runs the Brotherhood's High St Centre, said the program will help 140 disadvantaged young people move from learning to employment. ''We are trying to break the cycle of youth unemployment, give them real work experience, teach them how to communicate better and use motivational methods to reach youth,' Mr Catto-Smith said.

Wartime losses a cross to bear THIRTEEN soldiers from the Sorrento area lost their lives at Gallipoli and the Western Front during World War I and an amateur historian from Blairgowrie will head off later this year to place crosses on the graves of five of those 13 killed in action in France and Belgium. Peter Munro has been researching the lives of the “13 Sorrento boys” who died on foreign fields and only six have known graves. The other seven are commemorated on memorial walls at Lone Pine, Villers-Bretonneux, The Menin Gate and Fromelles. Five of the six graves are in the Somme and Flanders areas. Mr Munro will visit the five burial sites at cemeteries in Belgium. “I’ve felt I’ve been walking in the footsteps of these lads for the past twelve months,” Mr Munro said. “The backgrounds of this group are so diversified, some born in Sorrento, some who came to the area for work and some who went the school and later left the district”. Among the 13 are two school teachers, one Robert MacDonald after passing his teachers’ examinations spent less than three months at Sorrento before he enlisted. Fellow teacher Frank Kemp’s father was headmaster at Sorrento State School for 17 years. Four sons from the same Sorrento family, the Hibberts, died after volunteering for service. Two sons Albert and Cecil were killed on the Western Front. The Sorrento RSL has made designated crosses, each bearing the name of the soldier and the insignia of the Sorrento RSL. “It’s only a small contribution in proportion to the sacrifice these lads made,” Mr Munro said. He thanked Michael Jeffreson, president of Sorrento RSL, Anne Adams and Warren Steele of The Friends of the Sorrento, Portsea RSL, and John Phillingham, nephew of Albert and Cecil Hibbert, for their time and effort in making and personalising the crosses.

Title challenges ‘HOW much are you worth?’ is the challenging title of a talk at the Rye Presbyterian Church Hall, corner Collingwood and Lyons streets, Rye, 6pm, Sunday 20 September.

Mental health help FUNDING cuts to mental health services have prompted a response from Peninsula Harmony Counselling Service manager Emma Hayes. “With the cuts and the growing demand for mental health services on the peninsula I have started my own not-for-profit service,” Ms Hayes said. Peninsula Harmony Counselling Service, based in Somerville, offers counselling without the trouble of getting a mental health plan. “To make it easier I also perform case management and outreach services,” she said. “Due to a growing need I am also setting up groups on the peninsula for adults and children focusing on depression, anxiety, resilience, mindfulness, anger management and suicide prevention. “These groups are one of a kind and can also be adapted to run in school.” Details: 0406545482.

Late goal finals win for Rye THE inaugural Mornington Peninsula Junior Football League youth girls’ grand final on Sunday last week proved to be an epic encounter, with Rye beating Beleura with the last score of the day. Playing for the Gary Sanford Cup, the teams played a game that league president Andrew Souter says “will be remembered for many years to come”. For an hour the girls fought out a see-sawing affair at the Thomas Barclay Oval, Hastings, with nothing to separate them on the scoreboard: 4-428 apiece at the end of normal time. During extra time of two five-minute halves the ball travelled the length of the field many times and bobbed around on each team’s goal line. But, tough defensive efforts by the desperate defences, kept the scores locked. This sent the game into a second period of extra time. “It became a battle of attrition as the girls continued playing at an intensity that matched the opening minutes,” Mr Souter said. “They had been going at each other hammer and tongs for more than 80 minutes when, with only a minute left, Rye full-forward Ashlee Bourke laid a bone jarring tackle on her Beleura opponent and was rewarded with a free kick. “Then, with her last kick in junior football, Ashlee lived out every player’s dream: kicking the winning goal in a grand final. “She slotted the winner from 15

metres out, on a 45 degree angle, with less than a minute to spare.” Players and fans celebrated Ash’s kick as the ball returned to the centre for one last effort. The Rye girls won the clearance and the final siren went with the ball on their half-forward line. “Tears of agony and joy streamed down the faces of players, coaches and parents alike,” Mr Souter said. “In that moment of agony and ecstasy both teams showed good sportsmanship by huddling in the middle of the ground to wish each other well. “These two great teams have developed a great sense of camaraderie and a fierce rivalry that has been built out of respect for each other. “There could not have been a better demonstration of just how engrained girls’ football has become on the peninsula and around the country.” The line ups included Vic Country representatives Stacey Conway and Paris Stahl (Beleura), Georgia Walker (Rye) and Vic Metro and All Australian representative Jordyn Allen (Rye). At the presentation ceremony, the umpires awarded the match ball to Rye captain Georgia Walker for her best-afield effort kicking four of Rye’s goals. Rye best: Georgia Walker, Suede Croad, Macy Hall, Alana Kouts, Chloe Stephens and Jordyn Allen; Rye goal kickers: G. Walker 4, A. Bourke 1. Beleura best: Jackie Cameron, Paris

Brother-sister act MT ELIZA Junior Football Club won five premierships on Sunday in the Frankston and District Junior Football League. In those winning teams, two players – Finlay, 15, a rover and captain of his team, and sister Saige, 13, a centre-half-forward – were named best-on-ground by the umpires. “This is rare enough, however, it was also the first time that there was a finals series for junior girls,” proud dad Fraser Bayne said. “Therefore, my daughter was involved in the first ever grand final for junior girls and won the first ever best-on-ground.” The elated brother and sister can celebrate flags and beston-ground performances on the same day. Saige even kicked a goal. Earlier, Finlay won the F&DJFL U15 League Best and Fairest Award and Saige played Interleague, winning another beston-ground. It was the first time Interleague was held for girls.

Landing flip ends interstate outing Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

Off runway: The Yak 9 which flipped after landing at Tyabb airfield last Sunday week. No one was injured in the crash. Pictures: Gary Sissons

LONG-TIME Peninsula Aero Club member Jim Wickham is “a little bit upset” about the dramatic finish to his return flight from a central NSW flying event on Sunday morning, 7 September. Half way along the Tyabb airfield runway a wheel of his replica Russian Yakovlev Yak 9 slipped into soft turf at the side of the bitumen causing it to veer off course. Both wheels then dug into the grass and the plane slowly rose up and gradually flipped over onto its back. It was left with damage to its wheel, wing, propeller and rudder. Mr Wickham, of Moorooduc, was unhurt but trapped inside the cockpit until freed by emergency services. Straight afterwards he reportedly had

his screwdriver out and was removing parts to disconnect the battery. Mr Wickham, in his 60s, got bogged in the same aircraft at the club’s 2012 air show – but with less dramatic results. Aero club president Peter Bernardi said “we don’t know exactly what happened. Perhaps there was a gust of wind from the west that set him off course. Once he got one wheel in the grass it pulled him over”. “It happened slowly and he had time to put his head between his knees and just let it go over. “He got out without even a scratch but, of course, he was a little bit upset. He’s a very fastidious person and had prepared the aircraft well.” Mr Wickham was assessed at the scene by emergency services but did not require treatment. He is tipped to

be busy this week fixing the damage to his aircraft. Mr Bernardi described the stronglybuilt single-engine fighter aircraft as being “formidable fighting aircraft” when used against the Luftwaffe in World War II later against Australia and the United States in the Korean War. Mr Wickham’s plane was built in 2002 but with a larger US-made engine. Mr Wickham has two other Yaks, two Mustang replicas, a Spitfire replica and a helicopter.  On Sunday 9 August Carl Solomons, 59, of Patterson Lakes, died when his Cavalon twin-seater aircraft hit power lines and crashed into shallow water on a flight between Tyabb airfield and Tooradin. His passenger, 37, was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital with serious injuries.

Planning on making garden link A PUBLIC meeting is being held to plan a community garden on the David MacFarlan Reserve between the Sorrento Community Centre and the skate park. Topics for discussion are social design, planning and fundraising to provide a garden and landscaping with a shaded structure that will eventually incorporate a public barbecue. Organisers say connecting the skate park and community centre through a community garden will provide the link and more opportunity to work together cooperatively with younger people. The first planning meeting of the Community Connected Garden project is at Sorrento Community Centre, 4.30pm Tuesday 13 October. Email sccvolunteer101@gmail. com or visit SorrentoConnected garden on Facebook.

A deal’s a deal MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has been asked to uphold a maintenance agreement it signed with the developers of Kinfauns Estate, Hastings. A petition with 134 signatures asks the shire to:  Repair and reinstall vandalised ornamental entrance gates facing FrankstonFlinders Rd;  Repair and reinstall all decorative fencing, features, gazebo, tennis court, lighting and plantings that have either been vandalised, removed by council due to neglect or destroyed by poor management of rabbits in the estate; and  Any further changes to the streetscape of the estate to be done with consultation and agreement with residents. Council has responded by saying staff and Cerberus ward councillor David Garnock met three Kinfauns representatives after a meeting of estate residents on 7 August, before the petition was lodged.

Cr Garnock will arrange a meeting later this month between residents, the shire and the estate with a view to setting up a residents’ advisory group to deal with the problems.

No permit SHIRE enforcement officers are examining removal of a pine tree and shrubs without a permit from a Mornington property. This follows a complaint from nearby residents about a house demolition, in particular asbestos removal. The residents also complained about removal of large mature trees and “destruction of street landscape” in an area covered by a vegetation protection overlay. Council has responded by stating asbestos removal is the responsibility of Worksafe Victoria and that contractors are “selfcertified”.

Petition vs petition SHOREHAM residents have petitioned the shire to open Blake St via Buxton Lane at the north end of Buxton Woodland Reserve to connect the two parts of Shoreham without the need for residents to drive on to Frankston-Flinders Rd. The petition contains 42 signatures. However, a second petition of about 98 signatures opposes the opening, arguing this would “destroy the quiet ambience of Shoreham and traffic would increase significantly on the dirt road”. The shire responded by saying it had examined the road link proposal but “there was no indication of strong community support” for it and considering costs and potential impact, it was not considered a high priority. The petitions were then circulated. The shire will now study the best way to proceed and will notify petitioners, officers said.

Top turn: Despite the efforts of Adam Morris, Peninsula Surfriders Club has been relegated to B grade after coming fourth in Sunday’s Victorian Teams Title at Jan Juc.

Peninsula’s west coast loss TORQUAY Boardriders Club won its sixth consecutive Victorian Teams Title on Sunday at its home beach of Jan Juc. Peninsula Surfriders Club came fourth, behind 13th Beach (second) and Portland (third). Peninsula will be relegated to B grade for next year’s competition. “The event combines three divisions, Men’s Skins, Women’s and Teams requiring all clubs to have depth in their roster to take the win,” Surfing Victoria’s Liam Robertson said.

Paris tragedy inspired art humour book IN January after the murders in Paris at the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, Mornington Peninsula publisher, author and artist Fran Henke dispelled her dismay and anger by creating a collage on the theme of the slogan that swept the world – “Je Suis Charlie” (I Am Charlie), including Aussie references. “I’ve worked with cartoonists and satiric portraitists over more than 50 years of journalism and the tragedy hit me hard,” she said. She donated her work, Je Suis Ahmed, to Bald Archy Prize organiser Peter Batey, who created the prize in 1994 to take the mickey out of pretentious portrait prizes such as the Archibald Prize. As the reaction rolled on around the world – the most poignant cartoon coming from David Pope of the Canberra Times (“He drew first”) – Mrs Henke emailed Peter Batey suggesting they do a book celebrating Australia’s satiric portrait painters, the freedom in which they work, and his diverse career. He agreed, saying it should be launched on 24 July with the announcement of the 2015 Bald Archy winner; it was put together in just five months. In Yer Face – The Bald Archy Prize charts the growth of the prize from its start as a one-off celebration to now being Australia’s most popular touring art exhibition. It shows the significant role humour in art has played through history and in Australia since J F Archibald established The Bulletin in 1880. A former arts journalist for the

The book includes all winners of the Bald Archy Prize over its 22 years. “Finding the 12 winners – one artist has won five times, three others have won twice – was a challenge,” Mrs Henke said. “We found all but one, Peter ‘Wilko’ Wilkinson. We were particularly worried about an early winner, Alan McClure, who was in his 90s. We discovered he had only recently retired as a cartoonist on the Cootamundra Herald and he has contacted. Finding my friend and 2005 winner Tony Sowersby of Seaford was not hard. “I wanted to know who they were, what they did as ‘day jobs’. Wonderful responses and ‘selfie’ drawings started arriving. “A tribute to Peter Batey was important. Peter with Barry Humphries was co-creator of Dame Edna Everage. Peter launched my first book in 1976, now 40 years on.” The pair finished the book, sent it to the printer and arranged a launch in Sydney. Mrs Henke headed out to Melbourne Airport but missed her flight – and the launch – but arrived in time for lunch. She is a polio survivor and didn’t tick the box requesting assistance at the airport for its daunting stairs.  In Yer Face – The Bald Archy Prize has been published by Fran Henke’s imprint Flying Pony Press and costs $30 plus packing and postage of $13.

LETTERS Selective memories I get quite amused when conservatives write in to "can" the Rudd and, in particular, the Gillard governments. They tend to remember the instability and go into denial of the GFC. What I remember, is the seditious actions and remarks by one Tony Abbott and Alan Jones. "Ditch the witch" and the suggestion that our first woman prime minister be "shot, put in a hessian bag, and tossed into the ocean" come to mind. Australia was the envy of the world thanks to a treasurer who knew what he was doing (unlike Smokin' Joe). The school hall program, along with the pink batt scheme, was brilliant for creating employment marred by some unscrupulous tradies who thought only of the fast buck to be had. Wayne Swan was recognised for his ability to keep us out of the financial mire and was awarded a medal as "Euro Finance Minister of the year". Paul Keating, another Labor treasurer, is the only other Australian to gain that recognition. Not bad for a party that apparently can't be trusted with the finances. Conservatives, led by a prime minister that thinks climate change is crap and ably supported by Greg Hunt, who is laughingly referred to as the MInister for the Environment, seems to prefer to ignore the fact that other people will have to survive the greenhouse effect after we are well and truly dead. I would sooner my descendants live in a clean, smog-free future under Labor than a polluted environment that Abbott prefers. God only knows what sort of a priest Abbott would have made. John Cain, McCrae

Wetlands at risk It’s with incredible disappointment and dismay that we read of a new submission to build a 99-home retirement village on the Tootgarook wetlands. These wetlands are home to over 150 bird species, nine endangered ecological vegetation communities and 14 threatened fauna species. The area is now reduced to near half its original

size; it’s listed for Ramsar consideration and is partly subject to protection under the national EPBC act. The EPBC act requires our member for Flinders, Environment Minister Greg Hunt, to consider environmental impacts. Only four per cent of wetlands remain in Victoria and this development typifies the exploitation of high value environmental areas for commercial gain. The applicant listed as Lifestyle Communities is a publicly listed company specialising in retirement villages. Its charter lists “adherence to environmental standards, to operate ethically and in a socially responsible way”. We question the boards’ decision against its own corporate governance charter. Given the possible destructive nature of this village on the wetlands, we implore the board reconsider its decision and relocate the development to a more appropriate location in accordance with their charter directive and responsibility to its shareholders.

Peaceful protest As a person who resides in [Environment Minister] Greg Hunt's electorate and who cares about the future of the Great Barrier Reef, I am at a loss to understand how his staff could be upset and intimidated by coal protesters at last Thursday's demonstration. The action was peaceful (as are all GetUp initiated actions) and those present expected representation from Mr Hunt's office to at least acknowledge our concerns in regard to Adani coal mining in such a precious and sensitive area. When staff were unwilling or unable to come outside, a very small delegation entered the premise. A few children carrying animal shaped balloons with attached post cards were welcomed but a crate of coal seemed to be the reason for their fears. The staff should be more concerned about the pollution of mining by Adani in Queensland rather than the effects of pollution from a crate of coal taken into, and removed, from their office.

I was at the GetUp action last week in front of {Flinders MP] Greg Hunt’s electoral office and I have to say that his office-staff were not working in his best interest when they refused to take our message of bitter disappointment with his handling of the environment portfolio. The simple message was that you can’t have a healthy reef and a dirty great coalmine and coal port opposite the reef. Is it any wonder that his office people feel a little beleaguered because many of his decisions on environmental matters are putting them in the position of lightning rods for public displeasure? I believe that if Mr Hunt and his department had done their jobs properly, in regards to the [Adani] coalmine, the environment movement would not have been pushed to go to the Federal Court to fight for a reassessment of his approval for the mine. It is not a good message we get from this Abbott government that, if the heat gets too much, just change the laws of accountability and keep the people out of the loop of decision making and asking awkward questions. Australia is not a dictatorship, but on the way to become one if the government keeps up this slow and incremental destruction of our right to know and ask why. The scary thing is that the Labor opposition is letting the government get away with it.

WHILE joint pain can occur in many different areas of the body, some of the most common joint pain is experienced in the feet, toes, ankles and knees. Why? We asked Musculoskeletal Podiatrist, Dr. Tim Kirwan, from one of Australia’s leading musculoskeletal podiatry practices, Foot & Leg Pain Clinics to explain. “Your feet are your foundation and support your entire body weight, whilst your ankles and knees are subject to a lot of wear and tear due to their structural composition, movement and weight bearing requirements. So much of our daily activities rely on our feet and legs so it’s not surprising we experience pain and discomfort in these areas.” Joint pain can include aching, swelling and stiffness and can make standing, walking and other activities painful. Such symptoms may also be a sign of arthritis of which Rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis are the most common. These types of arthritis share some similar characteristics, but the cause behind the symptoms is very different and so requires different treatment. Osteoarthritis is caused by mechanical wear and tear on joints. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease, therefore an accurate diagnosis and correct treatment is very important. When it comes to diagnosing and treating pain and injury associated with the feet and legs, a podiatrist with expertise in musculoskeletal concerns is the best and most qualified practitioner to assist. Apart from thorough and accurate diagnostics and assessment, an experienced podiatrist focused on Musculoskeletal concerns can provide a whole range of advice and treatments to assist with the symptoms associated with joint pain. These may include: specific exercises for strengthening and conditioning the feet and legs, general exercise and nutritional advice to assist healing and weight bearing strain, addressing

faulty biomechanics, orthotic prescription, advice on appropriate shoe selection, dry needling and natural regenerative injection therapies such as Prolotherapy and PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma). “Thanks to advances in the latest medical research and treatments we’re able to assist symptoms associated with joint pain and arthritis better than ever before and even avoid surgery in many cases” Dr. Kirwan says. If you have joint pain or stiffness you can get expert advice at Foot & Leg Pain Clinics in Rye and Mt Eliza. Call 1300 328 300. Mention this article for $50 OFF initial consultation.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Patrick: Tinder’s oldest hairy-nosed wombat By Stuart McCullough LOVE. According to Frank Sinatra (and he should know), it’s a many splendoured thing. It can be simple and it can be complicated. It’s both all you need and changes everything. It is, quite frankly, a big deal. Once upon a time, finding that special someone relied on the ‘Some Enchanted Evening’ model of courtship. As noted in the musical ‘South Pacific’, this involved clapping eyes on a complete stranger across a crowded room and knowing in an instant that this was the person with whom you would spend, if not the rest of your life, then the rest of the musical with. But life is too seldom like a Rogers and Hammerstein musical. Spotting someone across a crowded room at the Dava on the Friday night as Andrew Hosking and Coupe De Ville gently serenaded you with a rendition of ‘Am I Ever Going to See Your Face Again?’ was always easier in theory than in practice. Noticing someone staring at you from the other side of a room was never really grounds for falling in love so much as it was for getting an intervention order. Now if things weren’t complicated enough, the whole endeavor has gone digital. South Pacific would have been a much shorter musical if Tinder had been available. For those who don’t know, Tinder is an application that enables mutually interested people to get in contact with each other. Put another way, it’s a dating app. Granted, it’s probably more efficient to find people through your mobile phone rather than to rely on fate to throw you together whilst stationed on a remote

island during World War Two, but it’s also far less entertaining. I very much doubt that had they been dependant on Tinder that Nellie Forbrush would ever have swiped her approval of middle-aged plantation owner Emile de Becque. Besides, Emile had a bunch of children which, in on-line dating

terms, is considered serious baggage. I doubt the ‘Some Enchanted Evening’ model of courtship would work for Patrick the Hairy-Nosed Wombat. It’s hard to spot your true love across a crowded room when you’re only two feet tall. All you’d see is kneecaps. Perhaps it’s for that reason Patrick

has turned to Tinder for help. Granted, signing a marsupial up to a dating application sounds a little far fetched. Presumably his handlers thought the idea of an Ashley Madison profile was ridiculous. There’s an obvious problem, though. The way Tinder works is that you ‘swipe’ to the right to indicate that you like someone’s profile. That’s not easy when you’re a quadruped. Given that you have to be holding a mobile phone when said swiping occurs, it’s downright impossible if you are without opposable thumbs. Frankly, it’s kind of cruel to subject poor Patrick to the travails of Tinder. He’s practically defenceless. But this is not his first foray into the world of modern technology. Patrick also has a Facebook page and tens of thousands of followers. This is both quietly impressive and faintly depressing. His page describes him as a ‘public figure’. Not content with a Facebook page, he has a website too from which you can purchase all manner of Patrick paraphernalia – caps, t-shirts, mugs and fridge magnets. Sadly, unlike Britney and Beyonce, Patrick does not have a personalized cologne to offer. There used to be a band called ‘Combat Wombat’, but it may be unrelated. Pity. As for the reasons for getting onto Tinder, turns out it was prompted by a birthday. And not just any birthday either, but the big ‘30’. Turning thirty has seen him turn his thoughts to settling down and building a little burrow for two. But while thirty is still pretty young generally speaking, it’s really getting on if you’re a hairy

nosed wombat. Apparently, they have a life expectancy of up to twenty years in captivity and even less in the wild. In fact, his Facebook page describes him as the oldest living wombat in the world. This changes everything. I’m not sure it’s appropriate to cast a geriatric wombat into the world of on-line dating. It’s too easy to see how things could go wrong for everyone. Potential dates won’t just be swiping to ‘like’ any old wombat but the Methuselah of the marsupial world. They’ll want to go out dancing, and he’ll be keen to go home and watch ‘A Touch of Frost’ before a warm milk and an early night. I am seriously concerned that the whole thing’s doomed to fail. None of this would be happening if ‘Perfect Match’ was still on air. Dexter the Robot would have the whole thing sorted in seconds. These days, all we have is ‘The Bachelor’. Frankly, replacing the eponymous bachelor with a hairy nosed wombat of advanced years would be a substantial improvement. Forget handing out a rose at some contrived ceremony filmed through a Vaseline-smeared lens. I long for a television experience in which millions of people tune in to see single ladies in ball gowns express their disappointment that the bachelor, instead of handing out roses has, in fact, eaten them. Dressed in a tux, Patrick would waddle through the crowded room before stopping in front of his preferred contestant and breaking into a version of ‘Some Enchanted Evening’. That’s what I call romantic. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

TWINS RIDE THE MILKY WAVES By Terri Lee Fatouros to the drum machine, which has separate outputs from each drum within the drum machine. Because we use a lot of loops live, an MPC sampler is used. So I basically trigger a lot of things with one hand while I’m playing the synthesizer with the other hand together with Teagan playing her synth. So you really have to pay attention within the song being played. It forces you to step up your game and make it as live and engaging as possible.” I asked him how he gets his inspiration to write a song. “The kernels of ideas often come to me in the shower. It’s like sensory deprivation and I enter into a kind of meditative state. Because the water is hitting me, my self-awareness takes over. I have a lot of ideas in the shower but resist the urge to do anything with them, instead I let them percolate in the back of my mind. Then I like to spend the day and night in the studio, which is a window less space with double locked doors, sound proof and dark. I like to sit and meditate on those thoughts and let them consciously brew up. I like to find different ways to break a rhythm and sometimes like to break a perspective when writing.” Both write songs and both have different approaches.

THE debut album Milky Waves from brother and sister outfit Voltaire Twins was launched at Shebeen in Melbourne to an appreciative and much anticipated crowd last month. TWINS Jaymes and Teagan Voltaire, both in their late 20s, have been gigging together since high school days and have amassed a huge following along the way. THE pair decided to form a band while at university. Jaymes studied creative writing, Teagan studied filmmaking and both were in separate bands. It was during this time they realised they had something unique going on so gave it all away to concentrate on their music together and became the Voltaire Twins. Their genre is dance music, sonic vibe 70s

disco with Fleetwood Mac being a big influence on them. Using a bunch of synthesizers, electronic drum machines, including live drums and percussion, bass guitar and lead, their sound is contagious with unique overtones of pop and synth riffs. One of their songs, Glass Tooth, incorporates the large sound of live percussion and drums with over lay of drum machine producing a sound dripping with sweat and glitter. Their signature blend of 70s disco, 80s pop and 90s beat takes you on a nostalgic journey to when synthesizes were first introduced and forging ahead with an outer worldly sound. Milky Waves was recorded using Pro Tools software. Jayme’s stresses that Ableton was used for writing because it’s more of a loop base program and great for arranging due to

the ease of moving things around. Then once everything was in place, they recorded live into Pro Tools. Although you can hear the fabulous electronic sound throughout, rather than use midi controls they used live instruments, which created depth and substance to the mix. Says Jaymes: “It is a different way of recording with the 70s sound. The drum sound and mike technique have its own idiosyncratic textures and techniques and this is what we really like. I know it’s not what is really happening in the scene, but we thought when it comes to making the album, it should reflect what we really love, which is 70s pop and disco, so that’s the route we took. “We do use a drum machine when we play live and send different midi signals from a laptop

RENT is set in New York City’s gritty East Village, and this revolutionary rock musical is an imaginative retelling of the classic Puccini opera, La Boheme. This unforgettable and timeless story of a group of starving artists, who, despite poverty and illness, learn to fall in love and find their voices, brings a universal message of hope for everyone.

The cast includes Jackson Peele as Roger Davis, a songwriter who is HIV positive; Drew Lane as Mark Cohen, an independent filmmaker and Roger’s roommate and Daniela Medina as Mimi Márquez, an exotic dancer with HIV.

Nearly every record label along with film companies, marketing companies, producers, and music industry people are there and it’s a big 24-hour conference come party atmosphere going on.

NEW MENU, NEW VIBE, SAME GREAT SERVICE By Melissa Walsh It’s all happening at Rose GPO Hotel where the last six weeks has seen a huge refurbishment taking place. Owner Sam Austen says it’s been seven years since they took over and it was time for a change. “We have completely refitted the front of the venue with new floors, new furniture, bar tops and new lighting. The bar tops are made from recycled hardwood timber and the new industrial copper leaf lighting gives a warm ambience,” said Sam. “The whole place has been freshly painted and decorated, a dramatic change from the dark woods to a light and bright vibe.” Rose GPO is in the middle of a rebrand also and executive head chef Patrick Bowring launching a delicious Spring menu for our loyal and new clientele. “We have a new menu to coincide with the relaunch of the refurbishment, a menu with lighter options, and fresh lamb and pork dishes with two great new salads.”

become a favourite Sunday destination since it started in April this year, and Sam couldn’t be happier with the response.

Enjoy the selection from Rose GPO with tapas dishes including pulled pork sliders, salmon skewers, new season asparagus salad and roast pumpkin salad.

Right on trend and the only one doing it on the peninsula is the all style American smoke barbecue Sundays starting from midday, with music starting at 3pm.

For those looking for something a little more substantial, the new Emerald valley lamb rump is a must try, or the Cone bay barramundi fillet with celeriac remoulade, surf clams and roasted kipflers is iconic.

“The response has been fantastic, and our Blues Sundays have really taken off, as there’s not much for the 35 and over crowd down this end of the peninsula,” said James Robins, the GPO’S manager of six years. “We have two set bands the first and third Sunday of the month and then alternative bands the other Sundays.”

“There’s things to do in Mornington and Frankston but not much this end so it’s great to be able to provide a fun day for people, families included around the Rosebud area without having to drive too far,” he said.

On Sundays, the only place to be is the GPO Hotel with their Smokin’ Blues and Texas Barbecue, showcasing fabulous blues talents

Great food and quality entertainment have gone hand in hand at The Rose GPO. “Since we started here we have set a standard and a culture that Rosebud so desperately needed,” he said. “The GPO is a driving force in establishing Rosebud as a reputable food destination.

Romantic dinners, family reunions, Christmas functions are all catered for here.” “We have a great selection of beers on tap with an abundance of local and international craft beers,” said Sam. “And we pride ourselves on having the internationally renowned coffee culture of Melbourne right here in Rosebud. Our baristas are trained and addicted.” Don’t forget, with the year flying past, Rose GPO is the perfect place to book in your Christmas function. Call them now to avoid disappointment!

MORNINGTON

KELLY McDonald from Frankston south, owner/artist at Garden Babies Fine Fairy Art has been named St George Banking Group AusMumpreneur Service Business Award winner. The awards were held in Melbourne where talented mums from all over the country gathered to support and encourage other Australian mumpreneurs. Kelly, a mother of two, was presented with the award by naming sponsor St George Bank’s Head of SME Stuart Zalunardo for Garden Babies Photography where the focus is as much on a magical experience for the children as well as amazing pieces of portrait art. Kelly said she was thrilled to win her category in the 2015 St George Banking Group AusMumpreneur Awards against such a talented bunch of women. “I am truly humbled to take home this award and represent such amazing mums in business. I started my business less than a year ago, and it’s so rewarding to be recognised for my hard work and determination. “I’m so proud of my business and the support I have received from my husband, clients, friends, family and the community has been overwhelming. I was also moved by the passion and drive of so many women I met over the weekend and it’s really empowering to know that mums in business are being recognised for their achievement.” St. George Bank is keen to support Australian entrepreneurs like Kelly McDonald and her fellow AusMumpreneur Award winners, Stuart Zalunardo said. “The awards are all about recognising the growing number of mums who are achieving outstanding business success while balancing motherhood.” “I was blown away by the entrepreneurial spirit of the award winners and am very confident that they will provide great inspiration for other mums considering starting their own business,” Stuart said. This is the sixth year the AusMumpreneur Awards have run, with the business mum community growing at lightning speed as mothers look at opportunities to join the ranks of small business owners.

At the Bendigo it starts with U.

Eagles end Sorrento ‘era’ NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt SOMERVILLE will play Rosebud in the Nepean League grand final this Saturday at Frankston Park after bouncing back and beating Sorrento in the Preliminary Final. The Eagles led all afternoon and finished strongly, booting 3.6 to 1.1 in the last quarter to record an 18-point victory, 11.22 (88) to 10.10 (70). It was the end of an era for Sorrento. The most powerful team of the past decade failed in its attempt to play in its eighth grand final in a row. Sorrento also said goodbye to coach Troy Schwarze, who retired at the end of the game according to club president Gary Woodhams. It was the worst kept secret in local footy that Schwarze wouldn’t be at the helm next season. Regardless, Schwarze led from the front and collected 19 possessions in his final game with the red and white. Somerville came out and played with an intent and urgency that had been missing in previous weeks. Despite beating Sorrento two weeks ago in the Qualifying Final, the Eagles looked flat on that occasion and again last week against Rosebud. However, on Saturday, the Eagles were up and about. The interesting thing in the Preliminary Final was always going to be about how the Eagles would respond from its trouncing last week (albeit it was only 16 points on the scoreboard). Its prime movers were well beaten against Rosebud and a few of the big name players failed to fire a shot. There is no question that they were all keen to prove a point. Tommy Shaw was super across four quarters and finished the afternoon with three goals. He worked tirelessly around the ground and also spent some time through the middle, which freed him up. Scott Simpson rose to the challenge and proved that he could use his superior ability to dominate a game. Simpson was sensational in the air, his tackling was a feature and it was great to see him spend time through the middle of the ground also. Rowan Hogenbirk didn’t start the game overly well, collecting just two touches in the first quarter, however, he willed himself to get into the game and responded with eight touches in the second quarter and 22

for the match. He was the most influential player on the ground. Tim McGenniss was also incredibly influential, especially in the second and third quarters where he collected 16 possessions. He finished with 24 for the match. Josh Westerman was a nuisance again and was fantastic as a run with player, while Adrian Speedy had 20 touches too and his drive from half back and through the middle gave his forwards every opportunity. In defence, the Eagles were rock solid. Without Kane McKenzie, Todd Farrelly shouldered much of the responsibility and kept Myles Pitt goalless. Ben Sedgewick was also very good for the Eagles in the back half, as was Luke Collie and Jake Wilson, who both beat their opponents. Justin Farrelly broke even with Sorrento’s Jon Croad in the ruck, which was a great comeback from the skipper after being beaten in the past couple of weeks. Travis Bravo took a screamer for the second week on the trot and booted two goals. Players such as Jedd Sutton and Justin Allsop, who were less than ordinary the week before, worked tirelessly on Saturday. The Eagles came to play and as has been said all season, their best is better than any other team. Sorrento was far from disgraced. Luke Tapscott was superb with three goals and 24 possessions, Leigh Treeby wasn’t damaging but had 20 touches after a long lay-off and James Hallahan had 18 possessions. Myles Poholke and James Brigden are the future of this footy club and their games on Saturday were outstanding. The Eagles had 33 scoring shots from its 47 inside 50m entries on Saturday. The Sharks had 20 scoring shots from 42 entries. The game was won and lost right there. The Eagles defence was rock solid. Somerville simply has to bring that same aggression, steely determination and run and carry into this weekend’s Grand Final at Frankston Park. The best two sides are playing in the Grand Final. In the reserves, Devon Meadows beat Rosebud in the Preliminary Final on Saturday and will play Somerville in the Grand Final. In the Under 19s, Rosebud will play Dromana after the Tigers easily accounted for Somerville in the early game.

All wrapped up: Sorrento had few answers to the pressure applied by Somerville who advanced to the Nepean League Grand Final with victory over the Sharks. Picture: Scott Memery

Stonecats in the big dance PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt FRANKSTON YCW advanced straight through to the Peninsula League Grand Final in a fortnight after holding off a fast finishing Mt Eliza on Saturday at Frankston Park. The Stonecats were outscored six goals to seven after quarter time, however, still ran out comfortable 22-point winners, 11.13 (79) to 8.9 (57). As is often the case at the Kars St oval, the wind was storming off Port Phillip Bay and charging towards the Kars St end – the end Frankston YCW kicked to in the opening quarter. The Stonecats took advantage of the conditions, booting five goals to one in the first 30 minutes and opening-up a 23-point break. It was a lead that they were never to relinquish. Luke Collins and Scott Macleod (two goals) provided enormous drive through the middle of the ground, Anthony Bruhn made it 11 goals in two finals with four against the Redlegs and Byron Barry and Daniel Waddell controlled things in the back half of the ground. Waddell needed to stop Justin Van Unen to help his team advance to the grand final and he was able to achieve that, restricting the century goal kicker to just two majors. Craig Nankervis was again at his best, winning his own footy and setting the standards for the rest of the team. Mt Eliza were always going to come back with the aid of the breeze, however, they weren’t able to hit the scoreboard as often as they would have liked in the second term. Despite getting enormous drive from the back half of the ground, especially through Karl Lombardozzi, Sam Gill and Darren Booth, the Redlegs really felt down across half forward. Dave Barton and Jimmy Clayton did all they could through the middle, however, outside of Van Unen,

the Redlegs just didn’t look dangerous. Ben Lean hit the scoreboard with a couple of majors but the likes of Tim Strickland didn’t have an impact on the scoreboard. The Redlegs need to find other avenues to goal. The Stonecats went into the game without VFL-listed players Anthony Barry and Lachlan Wallace. Depending on how deep the Western Bulldogs and Collingwood reserves go into the finals will depend on whether they are available for the Peninsula Grand Final. Mt Eliza will play Mornington in the Preliminary Final after the Doggies knocked Edithvale-Aspendale out of the finals race on Sunday in the First Semi Final. After conceding four of the first five goals of the game, the Dogs kicked 17 of the next 23 goals to runout comfortable 18.8 (116) to 10.10 (70) winners. The Doggies needed a shot in the arm after the first 15 minutes and came in the form of man mountain Michael Gay, who dominated in the ruck. Mornington’s bookends were superb also. Jackson Calder booted six goals for the winners and at the other end, Adam Symes blanketed the EdiAsp forwards. James Cameron was also superb for the Dogs, collecting more than 20 possessions and kicking three goals, while Joel Miller and Ben Wells were dominating by the final siren. Jai Haddock provided plenty of run and drive from the defensive end and Jake Smart worked hard in the front half. The Eagles had few winners. Brett O’Hanlon was tireless, Stevey Mannix was his team’s best, his big brother Tim tried hard also, while Brad Tagg, Mark Mullins, Matty Clark and Tim Mavric were also hard working.

Up and about: Frankston YCW posted a 22-point win over Mt Eliza to book a spot in the Peninsula League Grand Final. Mt Eliza will now play Mornington in the Preliminary Final. Picture: Gary Bradshaw

Petersville regatta heads to Blairgowrie THE Petersville Regatta is returning to the Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron sailing calendar. This family, friendly and relaxed regatta is set to be reinstated as the Club’s flagship annual event. Back by popular demand, the Petersville Regatta will attract a competitive group of keel and cruising boats from across the peninsula, Victoria and Australia. Participants will enjoy the return of this family, friendly and social regatta. The Petersville Regatta is held in high regard by yachting enthusiasts from Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron and beyond and is considered a nostalgic and historic event. The original regatta was held between 1981 – 1990 before the race was combined with Geelong Week. Successful boats that featured in the historic race include Shambles and Dry Reach skippered by R. Hick and subsequently G. Matthews, both of whom were the most successful boat competitors during the history of the event. This year the Petersville

PAGE 42

Regatta will follow the annual ORCV Boxing Day Dash and will coincide with the expansion of the Blairgowrie marina and the opening of the new clubhouse. Racing will take place over three consecutive days with a mix of long and short races, a twilight race and associated social functions. Located on Victoria’s southern Mornington Peninsula, Blairgowrie is one of Victoria’s leading holiday destinations, only a 75 – 90 minute drive from Melbourne. Adjacent to Sorrento and Portsea, Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron is one of the area’s most famous landmarks, with a distinctive pier and marina and stunning bayside location.

Running festival a big win for Beyondblue A BIG crowd turned out on 5 - 6 September for the second running of the Mornington Running Festival, incorporating the Mornington Health & Lifestyle Expo. Over 1300 participated in the run and over 5000 people visited the Health and Lifestyle Expo over the weekend. In it’s first year last year, the event saw just over 400 competitors participate. In just 12 months, the event has grown three-fold, with runners participating over four race distances.

“It was a huge effort, and fantastic to see a boutique local event receiving so much support from the local community as well as the running, triathlon and fitness communities”, said spokesperson Scott Hollow. “There was over $10000 raised for our charity partner Beyondblue.” The 21.1 kilometre half marathon was won by Serena Wooldridge in the female division (time 1:32:05) and Shane Grund in the male division (time 1:17:38). The ten kilometre fun run/walk

was won by Carly Burmeister in the female division (time 40:36) and Paul Marchant in the male division (time 34:46). The five kilometre fun run/walk was won by Susie Wilson in the female division (time 19:17) and Troy Page in the male division (time 17:28). Local real estate agent Nicholas Lynch Real Estate were the winners in the team challenge with 97 points. “Events such as these cannot go ahead without the fantastic support

of volunteers, friends and families providing their time, support and cheers,” said Mr Hollow. “We would like to thank all the individual volunteers, but a special thanks goes from the 2nd Mornington Scout Group that provided around 60 volunteers. “Also big thanks to our partners GME, Nicholas Lynch Real Estate, Raw Travel, The Private Sea, Freshwater Catering.” Entries are now open for the 4 - 5 September 2016 for third running of

Mornington Running Festival and Health & Lifestyle Expo. The weekend festival will include a one kilometre kids dash, five and ten kilometre fun run/walk and the popular half marathon 21.1km distance. The Health and Lifestyle Expo will also back bigger and better including exhibitors, seminars, workshops and games for the whole family. “Join us next year and help us raise more money for our charity partner beyondblue,” said Mr Hollow. www.morningtonrunningfestival.com
