Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au COUNCIL rates rises will be capped at 2 per cent for the 2017/18 financial year as part of the state government’s policy to limit any rises to the rate of inflation. The Consumer Price Index was forecast to be 2 per cent by the Victorian Department of Treasury and Finance. State Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins decided not to accept advice from the Essential Services Commission recommending a cap of 2.15 per cent for councils across Victoria. The Labor state government pledged to cap rates before Premier Daniel Andrews won office at the 2014 state election in a policy it dubbed “Fair Go Rates”. “In the decade before we introduced Fair Go Rates, council rates increased by an average of 6 per cent per annum. This has now stopped, making things fairer for ratepayers,” Ms Hutchins said in a statement. “Victorians have told us they want more of a say in council decision-making, and now is the time for councils to speak with their communities about their budgets for next year.” Frankston mayor Cr Brian Cunial

of the
said council will begin preparing its draft budget for 2017/18 knowing the state government decided on a 2 per cent cap. “The 2017/2018 draft budget process is the most appropriate away for the council to address the rate cap and the continuing decline in its revenue as a result of the imposed cap,” Cr Cunial said. Council estimates a $43 million downturn in rates revenue over five years due to the rates cap policy and Cr Cunial said this fall in revenue is likely to deepen since the rate cap has been reduced from 2.5 per cent in 2016/17, its first year in place. “Budget processes allow the council to review all parts of its operation and this will again occur for the forthcoming 2017/2018 budget,” Cr Cunial said. The mayor said council will also investigate if a 1.5 per cent rate cap is feasible after councillors voted 7-2 in November to have council officers prepare a report instigated by Cr Lillian O’Connor on any impact on services provided by council. Councils across Victoria can apply to the Essential Services Commission for exemptions from the rate cap if it can be proven rate rises above inflation are needed for specific circumstances.

Poo-r water quality at bayside beaches Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au SWIMMERS were in, out and shaking it all about at Frankston beach last week amid daily changes in water quality as a result of stormwater and faecal pollution. Regular updates from the Environmental Protection Authority revealed a fluid situation with human and animal poo flowing into Port Phillip Bay after flash floods on Thursday 29 December. EPA applied sciences group manager Dr Anthony Boxshall said there is a higher risk of illnesses such as gastro to swimmers from higher bacterial levels after flash flooding.
“Heavy rain and storms are can create a risk to the public as they can flood stormwater systems that then carry pollution that has built up in drains into waterways,� Dr Boxshall said in a statement. “In certain conditions, they can be home to bacteria from faecal pollution that poses health risks to swimmers.� The EPA declared water quality off Frankston beach as “fair� on Tuesday (3 January) but this was downgraded to “poor� on the Wednesday morning. The environmental agency decided to monitor water quality daily near Frankston Life Saving Club to provide regular updates to beachgoers. Poor water quality was also noted at Mentone beach last week and Mor-
dialloc beach was assessed as having “fair� water quality. Water quality information is displayed on signs at 28 Life Saving Victoria clubs around the bay during weekends and public holidays. The EPA says people should look for signs of stormwater pollution before swimming – flowing drains, discoloured water, odour and litter along shorelines are signs that the beach may have poor water quality. The EPA’s Beach Report forecasts run until the Labour Day weekend in March. EPA issues twice-daily water quality forecasts of good, fair and poor for Port Phillip Bay’s 36 beaches at epa. vic.gov.au online.

Bonus bins for two foreshores MORE rubbish bins have been installed along Frankston and Seaford foreshores to discourage littering. An extra 19 mobile waste bins will be in place until the end of the Easter holidays along the foreshore boardwalk and at Frankston and Seaford piers. Councillors supported a suggestion by the 3199 Frankston Beach Patrol group to ensure extra bins are in place during the summer season when more residents and visitors frequent foreshore areas. “Frankston’s beaches are extremely popular during summer, with local residents and visitors from neighbouring municipalities travelling to Frankston and Seaford beach to cool off with family and friends,� Frankston mayor Cr Brian Cunial said. “It is therefore important that we provide a sufficient number of bins, including regular removal of bins once full, to ensure our city remains clean and to ensure we are not damaging our natural environment or wildlife.� The new bins are in addition to 76 fixed waste bins and 15 recycle bins placed in positions where most people walk to and from beaches. Frankston Beach Patrol volunteers regularly pick up rubbish strewn along the foreshore. Council showed its thanks for the volunteers’ efforts by presenting coordinator John Billing with a certificate of appreciation at last month’s public council meeting for the group’s “continued commitment towards keeping our foreshore clean and free from environmental hazards such as waste�.
THREE artists from diverse backgrounds are first-time exhibitors at a New Year art show in Frankston, opening 8 January. The Divergent exhibition will open at FRANKCRE8, a not-for-profit artist-run community gallery and art space studios in Beach St. The three exhibiting artists, Sue Wilson (Young), Kristen Kinstler and Manjusha Manjusha met when volunteering at the gallery, and have together experimented with new mediums and techniques in the gallery’s “fun� social environment. Ms Wilson said the exhibition featured a range of medium and styles, reflecting each of their backgrounds. Ms Wilson studied art at Swinburne Secondary College and has previously entered into Cube 37 and the Peninsula Arts Society exhibitions. An album cover she recently designed won the Melbourne Blues Society Victorian and Tasmanian Blues Music Award 2016. Papua New Guinean-born Kristen Kunstler relocated to Melbourne from Brisbane in 2014. After 13 years of working in a corporate setting, Kristen took up freelance graphic design and photography. Indian-born Manjusha, 23, is a classical dancer and singer as well as a passionate artist. She also specialises in abstract line art that she says is heavily influenced by her post-colonial Australian and Indian heritage. Divergent opens Sunday 8 January, 1pm at 31 Beach St Frankston, until 21 January.

Footy’s back at home of Dolphins FOOTBALL will return to Frankston Park during the Dolphins’ exile from the VFL. AFL Victoria has decided to stage two VFL games at the home of the Frankston Dolphins Football Club and several TAC Cup matches and practice games. Essendon Football Club’s VFL team will take on Port Melbourne on Saturday 6 May and Richmond’s VFL side will play Werribee in a round 13 clash on Saturday 15 July. Frankston mayor Cr Brian Cunial said council welcomed AFL Victoria’s decision and said it is an encouraging sign for the future of the Dolphins.
The Dolphins went into voluntary administration in August last year before administrators Worrells Solvency and Forensic Accountants negotiated a deal with unsecured creditors to accept between 4.5 and 7.9 cents in the dollar as payment for about $1.5 million in debt. The club came out of administration in November but was stripped of its licence to play VFL football in the 2017 season. “This announcement comes at a critical time for the club, who are moving forward with achieving their goal of regaining a VFL Football Licence for the 2018 season,” Cr Cu-
nial said in a statement. “The club have received great support from the Frankston community during this difficult time and it is great to have AFL Victoria on board in getting the club back on stable footing, whilst keeping a high calibre of football alive in Frankston.” Council has helped the club by giving the Dolphins $50,000 worth of rent relief on a $67,600 bill. See frankstonfc.com.au for details of fundraising events to support the Frankston Dolphins bid to return to the VFL in 2018 or call the club on 9783 7888. Neil Walker

Help for leprosy sufferers needed A GROUP of Frankston and Mornington Peninsula residents are making a difference to the lives of leprosy sufferers around the globe, and are inviting others to join the cause. The Peninsula Leprosy Mission Support Group, a group of 12 people from around the peninsula, has raised more than $12,500 this year, beating its target and fully funding four projects in India, Papua New Guinea, Timor Leste and Nepal. Hastings member Don Johnston, who joined the group in 2008, said he was moved to tears when he and fellow members travelled to Nepal and saw the suffering and social rejection of leprosy sufferers. “In Australia a lot of people don’t realise it is still such a huge problem, but it’s a disease that’s still causing
huge problems and causing severe amputations and other health problems,” he said. “When you visit places away from the tourist crowds you see that it is devastating,” he said. Mr Johnston said the peninsula group raised money by holding a range of social functions, including restaurant nights, quiz competitions and movie sessions, throughout the year. The money raised will fund training programs for health workers, surgery and health care, rehabilitation and medicine. “You can cure leprosy with two weeks of treatment, but there are major long-term rehabilitation and medical costs required, and because of amputations and the need to help
people become independent, the costs are ongoing,” Mr Johnston said. Leprosy is a long-term bacterial infection that kills the nerves, and usually results in permanent damage to the skin, limbs, and eyes. More than 2 million people are affected by leprosy in India alone, and according to Leprosy Mission Australia, one person is diagnosed with the disease every two minutes. The PLSG meets monthly at various places around the peninsula, including Hastings, Mornington, Mt Eliza and Frankston. Details: Don Johnston, 5979 2370. Building bridges: Infrastructure is basic in Nepal, where leprosy is still a major problem, hidden in villages and away from tourists.

Eat scene: A temporary pop-up cafe has opened at the newly built Frankston Yacht Club. Picture: Gary Sissons
New beachfront cafe on horizon FRANKSTON has a new eatery at the foreshore albeit on a temporary basis. A pop-up cafe managed by the Food Truck Park company opened on Boxing Day and will serve up food and drinks from the ground floor of the newly constructed Frankston Yacht Club until 28 January. The $10.7 million Yacht Club, mostly funded by ratepayers, opened late last year. Negotiations between council and a restauranteur over a lease for a cafe and restaurant in the beachfront building collapsed at the last minute before the club premises opened. At last month’s public council meeting, council CEO Dennis Hovenden said commercial real estate agents Fitzroys have been hired to
advertise a longer-term lease for the Frankston Yacht Club. He was pleased Food Truck Park had stepped into the breach in the interim. “I think that’s a great outcome … bringing life to that part of the building,” Mr Hovenden said. Council plans to choose a tenant in March or April and will decide whether to lease both floors to one restaurant operator or split two floors into separate leases depending on market feedback. Councillors voted in November to ensure the wooden exterior of the building is kept in “pristine condition” since colours may fade when weather-beaten on the foreshore. Neil Walker

The peasants are revolting ... as are their leaders By DAVID CHALKE* THE Peasants’ Revolt of 1381 shook the establishment of England to its core. Fed by worsening living conditions and unfair taxation to pay for the ruling classes pet projects, the ordinary folk – artisans, labourers and officials – grew increasingly disaffected. The disconnected, uncaring and corrupt behaviour of the elites in the capital city eventually provoked the citizens of Essex and then Kent into outright rebellion. At first, the insurrection was limited to the distant rural heartland miles from the capital, but word quickly spread across the shires. So widespread was the plebeian outrage that the charismatic rabble-rouser, Wat Tyler was soon leading a march on London to overthrow the established order. Confronted by a weak and divided opposition the peasants took the royal fortress, the Tower of London, and beheaded the Lord Chancellor, the Lord High Treasurer and any other royal supporters they could find. The heads were then displayed on pikes on London Bridge, to the jubilation of the crowds. Under such pressure, the King was forced to accede to many of the demands of the rebels, including the abolition of serfdom. Move forward 600-odd years and similar forces can be detected; hopefully less violent then their medieval predecessors. In the developed, western world, the political classes and their supporting experts have become increasingly distant and disengaged from what former Australian prime minister Robert Menzies
The triumph of Donald Trump in the United States coincides with Australians’ record loss of faith in their elected represenatatives.
called “the forgotten people”. The gulf is of such an extent that the two groups are barely communicating with each other, resulting in a serious and increasing disconnect between public policy and the public. This is fertile ground for the modern Wat Tylers to rage and rail against the elites and the experts and attract the disaffected, the un-heard and the fearful. Those whose concerns are basic: a good job, a hopeful future for their children, an affordable cost of living and respect for their values and beliefs. On the other hand, the rulers have appeared to become more focused on fashionable causes célèbres such as globalisation, identity politics, climate change and human rights. This has been paralleled by an apparent distain for the hopes and fears of those they regard as “The Deplorables”. Consequently, the electorate’s suspicion of the elites is now matched by the elites’ disrespect for the electorate. A quick look at the political landscape of the western world shows the peasants
in revolt and the rise of the demagogues, of both right and left. Marine Le Pen in France, Geert Wilders in Holland, Nigel Farage in Britain, Norbert Hofer in Austria, SYRIZA in Greece, the Danish People’s Party in Denmark, the Law and Justice Party in Poland, Podemos in Spain and most strikingly of all, Donald Trump, the President-elect of the United States. In Australia, the disconnect between the establishment and ordinary Australians has not been as marked as in Europe and the US. However, a similar, if less virulent, condition is apparent. The agendas of the prevailing politico/ social order and middle Australia mirror those of their counterparts overseas. The potential frictions between the two have been salved by 25 years of recession free, relative prosperity, but this is changing. Wages growth for most workers is minimal, while cost of living pressures are rising, particularly for essential utilities. This would be manageable with an explanatory political narrative as to why
– remember the “recession we had to have” – but there has been no such thing from the leadership. The absence of a credible shared vision of the future of the country leaves a void where latent fears and uncertainties incubate and emerge unresolved. Add to this a rising suspicion that certain segments of society are more favoured than others and the resultant resentment is fuelling a demand to be heard and listened to from “the forgotten people”. This has prompted a decline in popular support for the established major parties and the emergence of agitators, agents provocateurs, and other oddball characters being sent to Canberra with the resulting paralysis and dysfunction of the process of government. The latest AustraliaSCAN survey shows that confidence in the federal government is the lowest it has been this century. People’s uncertainty about their personal financial futures spills over into their worries about the prosperity of future generations, with nearly two-thirds of adult Australians believing that young people today will not enjoy a standard of living better than their parents. A similar proportion believe that the country is heading in the wrong direction. There is a clear and pressing need for the enunciation of a new vision for the future of Australia; one with which the majority of Australians can agree. What is certain is that Australians want a new “light on the hill” to describe where the community is heading and why. What is less certain is who among our current crop of political leaders can deliver it.
For decision makers in both the public and private sectors there are three key implications for 2017: 1 Growing unpredictability both overseas and in Australia. Therefore, it would be wise to minimise irrevocable and inflexible long term commitments. While retaining the organisation’s strategic focus, endeavour to keep contingency reserves in store. 2 All established institutions, even the old household names, will be under immense pressure to perform against more nimble competitors. Large organisations should build agility into their operations, while small to medium business should take advantage of their flexibility to out manoeuvre the old dinosaurs. 3 Identity will become increasingly important. Who you are, what you stand for and how you behave will discriminate between the winners and losers in 2017. Keep in touch with your stakeholders and respond to their concerns with understanding. Incidentally, the Peasants Revolt didn’t end well for the peasants. The leaders, including Wat Tyler, were all executed by a vengeful establishment and the concessions they had won were reversed. In a similar vein, expect Donald Trump to be attacked from all sides by a vengeful establishment and don’t be surprised if he fails to run a full four year term. Let’s party like it’s 1381. *David Chalke is the Principal of The Strategy Planning Group and a consultant to AustraliaSCAN.

LETTERS Port not so deep
cent since the election of the Andrews government in November 2014. These shocking statistics coincide with the 31.73 per cent increase in periods of closure of the Carrum Downs police station. Years of hard work to improve Frankston’s image is very quickly being eroded away. Darrel Taylor, former Frankston councillor
I read with dismay (“State to take over Port”, The Times 19/12/16) that the CEO of the Port of Hastings Development Authority, Malcolm Geier, persists in promoting the incorrect view of “The Port of Hastings ... as Victoria’s deepest bulk port”. This has been constantly debunked by the facts. Overwhelming evidence of charted depth levels of Western Port and maritime maps clearly show the bay and the Port of Hastings do not offer a deep water port. Waxing lyrical about significant development opportunities “as a key bulk port for Victoria,” is also misleading and misrepresents the state Labor government, which has clearly put this proposal on the bottom of the pile in favour of maintaining the environment and recreational and eco-tourism jobs and businesses. It is a worry when the CEO persists in this line of thinking and misinformation. He and the port authority would have so much support if they auspiced or developed partnerships with the community to develop the many potentially positive areas that would enhance, rather than destroy our unique Western Port environment. Esther Gleixner, Flinders
Pension scare
Dredging is forever In the article “State to manage port” (The Times 19/12/16) a former harbourmaster states the required dredging is not as much as environmentalists think. The surface area is the issue. The seagrass, salt marsh and mangroves are critical to the permanent care of our biosphere. Whether you did one metre or 10 metres the destruction of plants is the same and guess what that destroys - the animals depending on them and changes the geology and ocean movement. We saw what happened at Somers beach when they messed with the tides before. Our ecosystems are forever, we are doing well if our ports last a couple of hundred years. If we all just bought what we needed we would not even be thinking of a second port, that is unless we are importing fresh air from China to deal with the pollution. Sue King, Somers
House gutted FIREFIGHTERS scrambled to put out a blaze that destroyed most of the interior and the roof of a home at Schmidt Court in Seaford on Friday (6 January).
Image loss a crime I was very concerned to see the results of the latest crime figures. There has been a 9.5 per cent surge in crime in the City of Frankston in the past year, including an extraordinary 38 per cent increase in robbery offences. Public crime statistics reveal that for the year ending September 2016 there were a record 16,274 offences reported in Frankston compared to 14,856 a year ago, an increase of 1419 more offences in just one year. As one Coalition MP put it “This isn’t a crime wave, this is a crime tsunami”. The rise follows a 179 per cent rise in public
nuisance offences, a 33.2 per cent surge in deception, 29.2 per cent increase in burglary/ break and enter, 22 per cent surge in arsons, a 22 per cent jump in dangerous and negligent acts endangering people, and a 20 per cent increase in abduction. The state Labor government has plunged our justice system into crisis due to weak sentencing, watered down bail laws, repeal of move on laws, cuts to frontline police and closure of police stations. These are figures are undeniable proof that crime is completely out of control in Frankston. Crime in Frankston has increased 10.38 per
Once again we have lies and scare campaigns about pensions getting cut. A mere 10 per cent of pensioners, those wealthy people that [Labor leader] Bill Shorten is so concerned about, are affected by the cuts. Those people have assets (the family home not being included in the calculations) that give them an additional income apart from the pension. I don’t think any fair minded individual would not think it was appropriate that wealthy people get a smaller pension than those who have not been favoured by life’s circumstances. But here we have Bill Shorten crying crocodile tears for his wealthy mates and taking the liberty to call our prime minister [Malcolm Turnbull] a sook over this issue. It’s a shame Bill Shorten hasn’t got the guts to advocate cutting multiple Centrelink payments to Muslim “families”. As far as those unsolicited phone calls that are being received on one’s answering machine, I intend to lodge a formal complaint with my local member. I really think it is time that we set higher standards for politicians to voice their opinion. Heidi Davies, Mornington

Volunteer recognition hits home
Splash dash: Competitors at this year’s Blessing of the Cross event swim towards a wooden cross blessed by Greek Orthodox Bishop Iakovos. Picture: Gary Sissons
Pollution a cross to bear THOUSANDS of people flocked to the Frankston waterfronts on Friday to join in the Blessing of the Waters celebration, and to escape the 33-degree heat in the cool waters of Port Phillip Bay. The Blessing of the Waters is celebrated every year at Frankston by followers of the Greek Orthodox faith to celebrate Epiphany Day and the Baptism of Jesus. Divers of different ages and energy levels dived off Frankston Pier after a wooden cross was blessed by Greek Orthodox Bishop Iakovos before being tossed into the bay. Theo Demetriou, 28, from Clayton was first to snatch the cross this year.
Participants at the event were asked to sign a waiver acknowledging the illness risk involved in diving into possibly polluted waters after flash flooding swept waste into Port Phillip Bay last week. Swimmers were advised to thoroughly shower straight afterwards by Coast Guard volunteers at the group’s clubhouse. The Holy Cross is believed to bring health, guidance and good fortune to those who retrieve it, and their families, for the year ahead. A traditional Greek festival with dancing and food was held on the Frankston Waterfront after the cross was retrieved.

PENINSULA Community Legal Centre joined the International Volunteer Day celebrations on 5 December, recognising volunteers who support the centre’s free legal services and help strengthen access to justice for the community. Education and volunteer manager Andrea Staunton said volunteers had donated around 5000 hours in the past 12 months to the centre. “In 2015-16, our volunteer lawyers provided 1,697 free legal advice to clients at our Frankston, Frankston North, Cranbourne, Rosebud and Bentleigh offices,” she said. “Volunteers also provided paralegal support and undertook special projects, organisational governance, trainee and student placements.” The centre acknowledged volunteers by presenting awards at its AGM, with the highest honour, the Kath Nielsen memorial award, presented to lawyer volunteer, Victor Moss. Mr Moss has been with the centre since 2009, providing advice to 229 clients as well as taking on additional work on a pro bono basis. Mr Moss said he was “surprised, slightly embarrassed but above all honoured” to receive the award. Long service awards were given to Bill Boucher, Ian Hone and Jonathan Sise for 10 years’ service, and Michael Denison for 35 years’ service. For details about free legal services call 9783 3600 or see pclc.org.au online. Global applause: Peninsula Community Legal Centre volunteer Victor Moss with his award.

The drone factor in wildlife protection Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au REGULATIONS designed to keep boats and jet skis away from seals, whales and dolphins have been extended to include one of the latest gadgets to take off – drones. While jet skis must not be closer than 300 metres from whales and dolphins and boats 100 metres away from dolphins and 200 metres from whales drones are prohibited from flying directly over, approaching head on or landing on the water near marine wildlife. Land and sea patrols the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) are on the lookout for breaches of the regulations which can attract $233 on the spot fines or penalties up to $3109 if the matter goes to court. DELWP program manager Craig Woodbridge said the patrols were being carried out over the whole bay, with particular attention being given to waters between Blairgowrie and Mornington. “These patrols will ensure the safety and well-being of the bay’s protected inhabitants such as dolphins and seals, while also educating people on the safe and responsible use of our waterways,” Mr Woodbridge said. “Boat and jet-ski operators in particular should be aware of their responsibility to take care around marine mammals.” He said the proliferation of recreational users on the water “can disturb the behavioural patterns of dolphins and other species”.
Patrols are being made to ensure boats and other craft keep their distance from seals, whales and dolphins, while on land Melissa Varney (right) Lee French (below right) have signed on as seasonal rangers with Parks Victoria.
Boat speeds near dolphins, whales or seals should five knots “and do not approach the animal. Avoid any sudden changes in speed or direction, and move away if the animal shows any sign of disturbance such as swimming away or diving and remaining at depth”. Mr Woodbridge said people and vessels must stay at least five metres away from seals on man-made structures.
On land, Parks Victoria has added three “seasonal rangers” to its team on the Mornington Peninsula. Seasonal rangers help permanent staff with peak visitor management, threatened species monitoring, event support, pest plant control, track and facilities maintenance and providing visitor interpretation and education programs. Aaron Lee, back for a second season at Point Nepean National Park, has a
background in fisheries and natural resource management. Based in Mornington Peninsula National Park, Lee French’s role is all about protecting the threatened hooded plover. His day entails walking the beaches with volunteer friends’ groups monitoring the shorebirds and educating park visitors. Melissa Varney is helping deliver the junior ranger education program at
Arthurs Seat State Park and Devilbend Natural Features Reserve. “Without summer staff, managing the national parks in light of the peak holiday use would be difficult,” area chief ranger Kris Rowe said. For information on regulations go to www.delwp.vic.gov.au or call 136 186. To report sick, injured or distressed marine wildlife call 1300 245 678.

New limits and lanes for safety Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au NEW lines, new rules, wooden bollards and flashing signs are all part of a comprehensive safety plan on two of the Mornington Peninsula’s busiest roads. The traffic management changes have been made along the Esplanade between Mt Martha and Safety Beach and Marine Drive to Dromana. The main attraction for many visitors to Mt Martha is the Pillars, a swimming and jumping spot on the steep cliffs off the Esplanade between Deakin Drive and Marguerita Av. But along with its popularity – increased by its many mentions on social media – the Pillars has created traffic safety issues, including parking in nearby narrow streets. In a bid to improve safety Mornington Peninsula Shire has installed wooden bollards along the Esplanade to prevent illegal parking and provide some sort of separation between traffic and pedestrians. Parking is allowed on bends on two wider sections of the Esplanade. Electronic signs give motorists and indication of their approach speeds, rewarding those dropping down to 40kph with a smiley face and a grimace for those travelling faster. Signs advising of a 40kph limit say it is because the area has high pedestrian activity. However, 60kph signs remain in place inside of the indicated 40kph section of road. The shire’s infrastructure strategy
manager David Smith said the “legal speed limit” along the Esplanade is 60kph. “Due to the increased pedestrian activity during the summer period the electronic 40kph advisory signage has been installed with VicRoads approval,” he said. “The purpose of this signage is to encourage motorists to travel at the suggested 40kph when pedestrians are present.” Mr Smith said new parking and bike lanes on Marine Drive “are in response to the recorded crash history with a high number of incidents involving cyclists and motor vehicles”. “The project was carried out in conjunction with the Victorian Community Road Safety Alliance in partnership with TAC and VicRoads. “The line marking treatment is a shared traffic lane which indicates to cyclists the space on the road in which they should aim to travel on. “In addition to this it also raises driver awareness to the presence of cyclists in the area. This is a standard treatment approved by VicRoads and is proven in reducing the types of incidents that have been occurring.” For safety’s sake: The popularity of the Pillars cliff swimming and jumping spot at Mt Martha has led to motorists being urged to limit their speed along the Esplanade to 40kph, while in Maribe Drive, Safety Beach, new lanes have been marked to separate vehicles and bikes.

MENTAL AS ANYTHING Nearly 40 years of recording and non stop touring. 25 top 40 hits in Australia. Sustained international airplay and Mentals are still at it. Martin Plaza and Greedy Smith are always writing songs. They can’t stop! Here comes a loony chunkabilly track from Plaza. Slide guitar harmonica and laconic vocal take us to his bedlam. -Goat Tracks In My Sandpit-. A troubled soul? Recorded in Martin Plaza’s Sandpit and A Sharp In Riverwood. Plaza obliquely pays tribute to Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys referencing his famous living room sandpit where Brian wrote his songs and faced his personal demons. Plaza’s demons?: phantom footprints? unseen goats drinking all his cans beer? Shades of the Nips perhaps. Produced by Martin and Steve James who produced Mentals take on RocknRoll Music for Young Einstein. In the can and just around the corner is a five track EP featuring the Mentals current lineup of Martin Cilia From the Atlantics on guitar, Jacob Cook on drums and from Mondo Rock, Casey Chambers and Jimmy Barnes James Gillard on bass and bvs. Five new songs Written by Greedy and Martin that Show the range and depth of two lifetimes in pop songwriting. Mental as Anything will be playing at The Grand Hotel, Mornington, on Friday 10 February. Tickets at grand. oztix.com.au or www.grand.net.au

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Nine foot shark caught at Frankston Pier Compiled by Cameron McCullough BATHERS are warned to be cautious while bathing at present as there are a number of sharks about. Mr E. McComb captured one measuring 9 feet 4 inches in length at the Pier in the beginning of the week. *** REV. E. Tonkin will conduct both services at the Frankston Methodist Church on Sunday next, and will also preach at Langwarrin in the afternoon. Visitors are heartily welcomed. *** A GRAND concert and dance will be given in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Saturday, 20th January, by the Essendon City Concert Band Entertainers, vocalists and instrumentalists. The programme is a varied one, and promises a good evening’s amusement. *** A WORKING bee is advertised to take place at the Frankston cemetery on Saturday afternoon. 20th Jan., at 3 p.m. It is to be hoped that a good number of helpers will make a point of attending, as the cemetery presents a very neglected appearance. *** MR. J. Wells notifies by advertisement that he has commenced business at the corner of Wells street and Melbourne road as a wood, coal and coke merchant, and is prepared to supply any quantity of firewood in suitable lengths at moderate charges. All orders entrusted to him will receive prompt attention. ***
AS showing the advantages of advertising. Mr H Robertson, of “Selencia” informs us that he lost a golf brassey stick some two or three weeks ago, and gave it up as “gone for ever”, but a friend recommended him to put in an advertisement in the local paper, stating his loss. He acted on the suggestion, and within two days the lost stick was returned to him! *** SOME steps should be taken by the local Council to have the bathing boxes on the shore kept in a clean condition. General complaints are made by visitors that they are in a filthy state and unfit to go into. If the nuisance is caused wilfully the police slould be informed, and if two or three of the culprits were caught and severely dealt with it would materially lessen the evil. *** THE return cricket match between the Langwarrin Military Camp Cricket Club and Frankston Cricket Club will he played at Frankston today Jan 18th. Keen interest is displayed in this match and the soldiers are determined to avenge their defeat. Afternoon tea will be provided for the players by the ladies. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason beg to announce as per advertisement appearing in another column, that after the current month they will conduct sales at their Somerville yards on the second and fourth Wednesday in
the Water Commission in reticulating the town, although ample water is available, no fire brigade has yet been established. Mr Von Klitzing has just recently sold his property in Frankston where he had lived for some time and was well known. *** Frankston Court of Petty Sessions. Monday, January 8th 1917. Before Messrs Sherlock, W. J. Oates, C. W. Grant and C. G. V. Williams J’s.P. A DISPUTED DEBT CASE William Henry Millar v Edwin J. Foster, Tyabb–Claim for £50, money due on promissory notes. Mr Utber for complainant and Mr J Barrett for defendant. Mr Barrett raised an objection to the Court hearing the case, contending that as defendant’s residence was at Tyabb, the proceedings should have been brought to Hastings court. After lengthy argument by Council the Bench adjourned the case to Hastings court, on 23rd of January. TRAVELLING WITHOUT TICKETS Patrick Henry Roy, an officer of the Victorian Railways Commissioners proceeded against Walter Williams and James Wilson for travelling from Melbourne to Frankston, on 2nd January, without tickets. Both defendants pleaded guilty. Evidence for the prosecution was given by Corp Macartney (Military Police) Porter Lidgerwood, and Const. E. C. Ryan. It appears that the defendants were arrested for misbehaviour on the

The excuse given by defendants was “That they thought the train had gone so bought platform tickets at Flinders St intending to pay their fares at this end.” Each defendant was fined 10s with 5s costs default distress. They had already been dealt with on the misbehavour charge. A ROGUE AND VAGABOND Const Ryan charged William Fullerton, an aged man, with wilful obscene exposure at Victoria St Frankston on 2nd January, and defendent was therefore deemed to be a rogue and vagabond, Fullerton pleaded not guilty. Const Ryan informed the court that a penalty of two years imprisonment and a flogging was provided for this offence. Evidence for the prosecution was given by Lance Cpl Robert Macar tney and Pte Major (military police) and Const E. C. Ryan. Accused was convicted. Const put in 5 previous convictions against him for various offences and informed the court that a warrant was in existence for him on another charge.

Sore Feet or Legs? Call
Feet and legs fit for 2017 WITH a new year upon us, its the perfect time to ensure you’re in good shape to tackle the year ahead. Our feet, ankles and knees are relied upon for our daily mobility, yet they’re often the cause of pain, discomfort and neglect. We asked the experts at Foot & Leg Pain Clinics for some tips to help keep you pain free and active in 2017! 1. Always get foot and leg pain checked. Simple soreness can be a symptom of more serious underlying issues and a podiatrist who specialises in Musculoskeletal issues has the most appropriate and specific medical expertise to treat such issues. 2. Evaluate your footwear. Summer footwear such as thongs and slips-ons can be stressful to the feet and ankles, if worn too long. Choose shoes that are comfortable with straps or laces (that hold to the feet), and have decent cushioning and support, especially for prolonged activity. 3. Choose activity/sport appropriate shoes for sport & recreational activities. 4. Don’t rely on technological advances in footwear to treat pain & discomfort or decrease the risk of injury. Proper advice and treatment from an experienced musculoskeletal podiatrist is the best way to prevent and treat problems. 5. Don’t buy shoes that require a “break-in period”. Shoes should be comfortable immediately. 6. Shop for footwear at the end of the day to accommodate for normal swelling. Feet can swell by up to 10% during the course of a day. 7. Be careful of off-the-shelf foot products including mass produced orthotics, innersoles and arch supports. Only devices prescribed by an experienced musculoskeletal or sports podiatrist should be used to ensure correct, effective and safe use. 8. Get a second opinion, if you’ve been prescribed surgery or medications. Thanks

Knock knees, pigeon toed, flat feet, warts and all: Kids Feet - by Carol Thomson, Podiatrist. EXCESSIVE sweating, smelly feet, ingrown nails, tinea, along with warts, and abnormal wear on that new pair of shoes. I guess that paints a picture of most of our kids. As a mother of four and having gone WKURXJK ÂżUVW KDQG VRPH RI WKH DERYH I can understand your concerns. We worry about their teeth, eyes, and other parts of the body. We teach washing, brushing, and grooming, so what can you do about your childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feet- those still-developing feet that have to carry the entire weight of the body through a lifetime? Many adult foot ailments have their origins in childhood. Neglecting foot health invites problems in other parts of the body, such as the legs and back. The child with troublesome feet may appear clumsy, walk awkwardly and usually has poor general posture. A visit to your podiatrist for foot care advice on any of the above can minimize these problems in later life. Babyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Feet: The human foot, one of the most complicated parts of the body, has 26 bones and is laced with ligaments, muscles, blood vessels, and nerves. Because the feet of young children are soft and pliable, abnormal pressure can easily cause deformities.
Growing Up: As a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feet continue to develop, it may be necessary to change shoe and sock size every few months to allow room for the feet to grow. Although foot problems result mainly from injury, deformity, or hereditary factors, improper footwear can aggravate preexisting conditions. Shoes or other footwear should never be handed down. The feet of young children are often unstable because of muscle problems, which make walking GLIÂżFXOW RU XQFRPIRUWDEOH Advice for Parents: Problems noticed at birth will not disappear by themselves. You should not wait until the child begins walking to take care of a problem youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve noticed earlier. Remember that lack of complaint by a youngster is not a reliable sign. The bones of growing feet are so Ă&#x20AC;H[LEOH WKDW WKH\ FDQ EH WZLVWHG DQG distorted without the child being aware of it. Does the child toe in or out; have knock knees, or other gait abnormalities? These problems can be corrected if they are detected early.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
Deck the Hollis - a run (DMC) down of Christmas By Stuart McCullough IT used to be so easy. Once, Christmas happened as if by magic. All I had to do was wake up and it was there, in all its shiny, glittering glory. Not anymore. Christmas now is not magic but a looming deadline for a whole range of tasks. From that moment in about mid-October when you hear the first strained snippet of a Christmas Carol seeping from the supermarket speakers, the weight of an awesome responsibility begins to settle on your shoulders. It’s both a test of endurance and race to the finish line. That’s because Christmas requires the kind of planning ordinarily reserved for a landbased invasion. And almost as many casualties. Last year, we offered to host. In that sense, we had only ourselves to blame. Let me say now that we drastically under-estimated what it takes to stage a family event of this magnitude. Previously, I thought the preparations would largely consist of clearing space on the table for the turkey and a few bon bons. I accept that I was entirely deluded. It was not helped by the fact that we elected to set the bar quite high. We were determined to do something different; to try and put our own indelible stamp on the day. My wife was quite keen on the idea of games to keep kids of all ages entertained. Consequently, we scoured Southland shopping centre the week before Christmas for Yuletide-themed piñata. Upon reflection, I’m not sure that such things even exist. It’s hard to imagine anyone selling a paper mache Santa that children then beat with a
PAGE 26
stick until it breaks in half. We briefly contemplated making our own Father Christmas piñata, but I was concerned that we might overdo things, creating something that was too close to indestructible. The only thing worse than beating Santa with a stick is upgrad-

ing to a baseball bat with a nail in it. Assaulting Saint Nick, even in paper mache form, may not be in the best possible taste. Owing to the size of my family, Christmas meals have always involved two distinct teams. Diners
were, like post-war Berlin, cruelly divided into groups: there were those on the big table and then there are the rest, consigned to the ultimate ignominy that was ‘the kids table’. For as long as I can remember, the primary aspiration of my life was to escape the clutches of ‘the kids table’. To be elevated to the big table would, so I believed, be all the confirmation I would ever need of my burgeoning maturity. Besides, it’s hard to eat Christmas dinner when you’re crammed around a card table and sitting in miniature plastic chairs which, for anyone older than five, are basically something you wear rather than sit on; like a pair of brightly coloured moulded underpants. How I longed to sit on a real chair. Unfortunately, we don’t own a table that seats twenty-five people. But neither to we own a card table, ensuring that the quality of any subsidiary furniture was bound to be more suited to dinner than a game of Texas Hold ‘Em. But we still didn’t have much in the way of seating. First, we contemplated seating people in shifts. In reality, this is perhaps a more extreme response to having a ‘big’ and ‘little’ table. It would never suffice. It was clear that we needed chairs and lots of them. Having seen ‘MacGyver’ in several three-second bursts whilst changing channels, I knew that the answer would have to be improvised. Using string, household baking soda and a decorative cushion, I managed to fashion something that resembled all those items after they’d tripped over each other. It didn’t make for much of anything, much less
something you’d deposit your backside on. Instead, we did the honourable thing and threw ourselves on the mercy of our neighbours. Lucky for us, they came through in fine style. As did members of the family, who arrived with plates of food and gifts that transformed our Christmas tree from a glittering Lone Pine to something from which an extraordinary bounty of gifts appeared to have fallen. And then there were the people themselves. There is nothing better at Christmas time that the hum of happy conversation over lunch. It was nothing short of spectacular. When the time came, family members marched to the clothesline from which we’d hung a homemade piñata. Ultimately, it was a crepe paper globe rather than an effigy and kids took delight in thumping it until it spilled its chocolate payload onto the grass. This Christmas, we were back at the farm in Tyabb and the festive spirit was alive and well within my family. A few weeks before the big day, I received a phone call from my fouryear old nephew, Tyler. He’d decided that he wanted to sing me his all time favourite festive carol: Christmas in Hollis by RUN DMC. There are, I believe, far too few rap Christmas carols. I was impressed both by the message and by my nephew’s lyrical flow. I can’t wait until we’re all together again, gathered around the tree and the Pianola, belting out our rendition of Christmas in Hollis, after which I will take my seat at the big table. Hope you had a a wonderful Christmas and all the best for 2017. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

New year brings new challenges By IT Gully HAPPY New Year to everyone involved in MPCA cricket. No doubt everyone has had a sensational break and are looking forward to an exciting back end of the 2016-17 season. There is little doubt that there is plenty of excitement and challenges for clubs in every grade across all divisions. There are just two one-day matches and three two-day games left in the season, kicking off this Saturday with a one-day match to launch the New Year. Provincial In Provincial, the fight for a spot in the top four is well and truly on with six teams with realistic chances of making finals. Mt Eliza sits on top of the Provincial table with 70 points after recording two outright wins in the opening half of the season. Despite leading the table, they have lost one game this season. Baxter, who have the best two players in the competition right now in Chris Brittain and Daniel Warwick, are in second place on 66 points after recording five wins from six matches. The draw came from a wash-out. Baxter are still the team to beat in the back half. Langwarrin have been the surprise packet of the season, also sitting on 66 points and holding third place. When you talk of teams playing to their potential, the Kangas have done it to a
PAGE 28
tee. Whether they can sustain in for another five rounds is questionable. Peninsula Old Boys are just lurking in fourth place on 54 points after recording four wins, a draw and a loss. The Old Boys know they just need to make it and they are in with a mighty show to defend their title. Mornington are a game further back and has probably been the disappointment to this point. The Dogs had a shocker last season and haven’t fared much better this season, sitting on 42 points with three wins, two losses and a draw. The only other side capable of playing finals outside of the top five is Sorrento, who are in sixth place on 38 points. An outright victory has saved the Sorras’ bacon though, having recorded three losses and a draw from its six games. Pearcedale, Crib Point and Pines are all on 30 points and while they’ll play a role on shaping the four, are highly unlikely to miss out. Somerville is on 18 points and have also been a little disappointing, while Long Island and Moorooduc will fight out relegation.

District The race is well and truly on in District with nine sides all boasting finals claims. The first game of the New Year will certainly sort out the log-jam of teams all vying for a spot in the finals. There are some season-defining matches this Saturday. The top two in Red Hill (68 points) and Mt Martha (62 points) look to have the competition covered at this stage, although Delacombe Park in third place and Flinders in fourth place are less than a game behind on 54 points. The Hillmen have won five from its six matches, including an outright, while losing to Mt Martha. The Reds have four wins from six games, as well as a loss and draw. Outside of the top four, Baden Powell and Heatherhill are just hovering in fifth and six place respectively, sitting on 50 points. Rosebud are still in the mix, just a game outside the four on 42 points and given Main Ridge’s talent, sitting on 38 points gives them a sniff – everything would need to go right for them,
as it would for Seaford Tigers, who are 14 points outside the top bracket on 36 points. Seaford will be looking to make a move from third bottom while Boneo and Rye will fight out relegation. Having lost four games outright, Rye is facing an uphill battle to prevent falling to Sub District next season. Run Scorers: Jon Guthrie (385), Rhys Elmi (304), Nick Christides (292), Riley Shaw (280), Shaun Foster (260). Wicket Takers: Rhys Whitling (30), Lincoln Toy (18), Jake Theobald (18), Luke Collins (18), Chris Cleef (18).

This Saturday (Rnd 7): Boneo v Seaford, Rosebud v Delacombe Park, Seaford Tigers v Main Ridge, Red Hill v Baden Powell, Mt Martha v Flinders, Rye v Heatherhill. Sub District The second half of the season in Sub District is going to be breathtaking, given all but one team is capable of playing finals. At the halfway mark of the season, just one game separated fourth placed Dromana from second bottom Carrum. The bottom would need to fall out of the Hastings (four wins from six matches including an outright, as well
as a draw) and Ballam Park (five wins from six matches) buckets for them not to play finals, sitting on 62 points and 60 points respectively and holding the top two places on the ladder. Tootgarook and Dromana are in third and fourth place respectively after recording three wins, a draw and two losses in the first half of the season. There are then five sides on 30 points – Balnarring, Tyabb, Frankston YCW, Carrum Downs and Carrum, all separated by percentage. Skye is on the bottom with just one win. Given the closeness of the season, getting away to a good start in round seven is critical. Run Scorers: Travis French (322), Stuart Plunkett (315), Nick Taranto (286), Lai Leaunoa (261), Aidan Pateman (246). Wicket Takers: Stuart Plunkett (18) Jye Voelkl (17), David Dervan (16), Andy Kitson (15), David Cross (15), Mitch Floyd (15). Champion Player: Stuart Plunkett (92.5), Matt Whelan (69.10), Travis French (66.20), David Dervan (65.70), Nick Taranto (57.60), David Cross (48.10), Aidan Pateman (46.60), Brett Hudgson (44.70), Lai Leaunoa (44.10), Rob Hearn (44). This Saturday (Rnd 7): Carrum Downs v Carrum, Hastings v Skye, Balnarring v Ballam Park, Tootgarook v Frankston YCW, Tyabb v Dromana.

Annual Steve Wallace Cup January highlight SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie PRE-SEASON preparations for the 25 March kick-off to the 2017 league season go into overdrive this month. The highlight is the annual Steve Wallace Cup on Saturday 28 January, which will again be hosted by Mornington at its Dallas Brook’s Park headquarters. The event commemorates the life of local soccer icon Stephen William Wallace who was 54 years old when he died on 19 July 2011 and was a former Langwarrin player, coach, president, life member, club council representative and Bayside League referee. The charity event is a showcase for the local game and always draws a large crowd. This year’s round-robin format involves 10 clubs in two groups with each team playing four group games of 15-minute halves and the top teams in each group playing off in the Grand Final. The participating clubs are Mornington, Langwarrin, Casey Comets, South Springvale, Berwick City, Seaford United, Peninsula Strikers, Skye United, Rosebud Heart and Baxter. On the transfer front Mornington has agreed terms with former star Simon Mur, who is due to return in mid-March from a two-year stint in England. Mur scored 24 goals in the 2014 season and Mornington head coach Adam Jamieson is delighted to welcome back the pacy striker. English imports Jack Truelove and Nathan Smith arrive on Wednesday 1 February and Jamieson has agreed terms with central midfielder Matthew Wade from Blyth Spartans in England’s Northern Premier League Premier Division. The 24-year-old is a former South Shields, Washington and West Allotment Celtic player. Striker Gino Defeo is trialling with Mornington. The 35-year-old has had stints with Port Melbourne, Brunswick City, Bulleen Lions, Clifton Hill, Diamond Valley United, Kingston City and Doncaster Rovers. Brad Zealley has been confirmed as Mornington’s goalkeeping coach. Teenage goalkeeping prodigy Cooper Bankes-Fay is likely to leave Mornington. He has been training with Bentleigh Greens and flies to the UK this week with the Australian schoolboys squad. Frankston Pines start training for

the upcoming season on Thursday and the club hopes to complete the capture of two young Mauritian internationals to join fellow Mauritian visa players Cedric Permal and Christopher L’Enclume at the Monterey Reserve outfit. New vice-president Daniel Plaiche was awaiting confirmation of their signing this week before arranging visas and flights for the duo. Skye United could sign five new players for its State 3 South-East campaign after its 2016 championship success. Among those targeted by senior coach Billy Armour are two Brazilians and an accomplished striker.

“I can’t give you their names because I don’t want other clubs chasing them but the striker is a former Division One player and he could still play at that level although he’s been playing down the leagues lately,” said Armour. Rosebud Heart expects big things from English recruit Will O’Brien, a central midfielder who played in the Bayside League last year and was on the books of Swaffham Town. Defender Callum Richardson has rejoined after a season with Peninsula Strikers and big Chris Sibson has returned from Seaford United. Senior coach Scott Morrison has retained all of last year’s squad.
Newly formed Somerville Eagles are hoping to hear from FFV this month that their application for membership of State 5 South has been successful. The club is based at Somerville Secondary College and is backed by Ultra Fine Foods whose director Felix Arena is Eagles’ president. “We just felt that there was an opportunity to establish a club in the broad Tyabb, Pearcedale, Somerville area and if FFV accepts our application we are likely to run around six sides this year,” said Arena. Zach Peddersen is director of coaching. Here are some pre-season schedules:
