Planning delay a win for waste By Neil Walker DELAYS in implementing parts of Kingston’s Green Wedge Plan have left areas of the protected zone vulnerable to industrial development, according to councillors who have questioned the hold up. City of Kingston councillors voted in August last year to approach state Planning Minister Matthew Guy to approve planning changes to prevent new waste-related activities on land zoned as green wedge. However, some councillors were surprised to discover earlier this month the amendments had not been put in place. The revelation came at the most recent council meeting as they discussed a planning application by demolition and recycling company Delta Group to build a concrete crushing facility at Heatherton within the green wedge. Kingston Council acting CEO Paul Franklin told The News the green wedge zones were formally finalised by the Planning Minister only last month. “It was prudent to wait until the final version of the revised zones was known,” Mr Franklin said. North Ward Councillor Steve Staikos said he was concerned about the delay. “As a councillor, I expect a resolution to be implemented by council officers when it is passed by councillors,” Cr Staikos said.

“It disappoints me that we’re now vulnerable to concrete crusher applications being approved because the resolution passed last year was not actioned,” he said. Councillors voted at the latest meeting to order council officers to “request the urgent assistance” of the Planning Minister to “immediately approve a planning scheme amendment to reintroduce an interim protection against materials recycling in the green wedge”. A previous two-year interim protection control expired in June 2010. Council officers wrote to the Mr Guy in May and October last year requesting an extension but no reply was received. Mr Franklin advised The News that officers had written again this month to the Mr Guy requesting the reinstatement of the interim protection. Defenders of the South East Green Wedge president Trevor Shewan said the failure to implement the council resolution last year would make it difficult for the concrete crusher application to be stopped. However, the conservation group would continue to oppose it. “It’s just a joke that nothing has been done and council officers are engaging in delaying tactics that make more development in the green wedge more likely,” Mr Shewan said.

Fairy fest has Carrum abuzz MITHRAEL Dumais hopes to create a buzz around a festival she is trying to organise in Carrum. The Carrum resident is trying to organise a family dress-up festival to be held at Carrum Bowling Club and Keast Park to raise awareness of sustainability issues, including healthy food consumption. The inspiration for her planned Fairies Holistic Community Festival came when she discovered hundreds of dead bees after a swarm arrived in her backyard recently. “I nurtured the remaining bees back to health over several days and it got me thinking about how important they are to sustainable food sources,� Ms Dumais said. “I chose fairies as the theme of the dress-up festival since they perform random acts of kindness.� The event will be crowd funded, with Ms Dumais hoping to raise $2,400 via the Pozible website, which provides a platform for creative projects to secure community funding. More than $500 has been pledged to the project to date. All funds raised will be used to host the not-for-profit drug and alcoholfree festival. Money is needed to pay for the hire of the venue and a bond to Frankston Council. Council has agreed to provide free parking for the event if it proceeds. Community groups and schools will be invited to host market stalls at the festival. The Frankson-based Southside Beekeepers Club has been invited to demonstrate how bees contribute to people’s daily lives and and how the

herbicides people use in their gardens can affect bees’ well-being. Holistic health, art therapy and laughter yoga sessions will also be available on site. Ms Dumais said the festival would be the first of its kind in the Kingston
area. “I have a huge passion to create an dress-up event so families can learn how ‘food is our medicine’ at a playful and fun event for all,� she said. “We hope it nurtures the inner child in all who attend.�
ď Ž Stall holders wishing to attend the Fairies Holistics Holistic Community Festival should contact Mithrael Dumais on 0416 388 206. Funding contributions to the festival can be made through www.pozible.com
MAINTENANCE dredging began last week at Patterson River to ensure safer boating access. Boaties are advised to proceed with caution and observe the five knot speed limit in the river channel during the dredging process. The dredge vessel will be limited in its ability to manoeuvre during dredging operations so mariners should note safety marks on the vessel and pass safely on the side showing two black diamonds. Beach goers may notice freshly dredged material includes seaweed which gives sand a dark colour and odour. The sand is regularly tested to ensure beach vistors’ safety. The sand will return to its usual colour and odour after several days’ exposure to the air and sun.

THE third annual Garage Sale Trail on 26 October 2013 gives people the chance to snare some retro bargains or de-clutter homes. In its first two years, the event redistributed and saved about 1 million items from going to landfill, generated more than $1 million in economic activity, raised $3 million in funds and creating hundreds of thousands of connections across Australia. Sellers who are hosting garage sales on the day are invited to put their ‘sale on the trail’ and list key items for sale. Buyers can plan their shopping day by searching what sales are nearby and creating a personalised ‘treasure trail’ of sales and items to check out on their mobile phone on the big day. It’s free to get involved and registration is open to households, local businesses, schools, community groups, makers and creators, cultural institutions, charities and anyone who’s up for a day of fun. The first 5,000 people to register nationally will get a free participant pack with posters to promote their sale and a free copy of a guide book to help sell any unsold items from the day. The event is supported by Sustainability Victoria and 24 Victorian councils, including the City of Kingston. To register or for more details, visit www.garagesaletrail.com.au
Continued from Page 1 Ironically, Mr Shewan was a Kingston councillor last year when the original meeting to vote on the Kingston Green Wedge Plan was held. He lost his South Ward seat in last October’s Kingston Council election. Council is dealing with many complex issues in the green wedge, with many landfill and material recycling sites and quarries making much of the area unsightly. Many green wedge land owners are also keen to subdivide their holdings for residential or other development, which would substantially increase the value of their land. Central Ward councillor Rosemary West, a member of the Green Wedges Coalition environmental group, also criticised the lack of progress in council’s efforts to halt concrete crusher facilities in the green wedge. “The officers have never been enthusiastic about protecting the green wedge,� Cr West said.

Airport drama: Emergency crews attended Moorabbin Airport after a light plane reported mechanical problems. Picture: Gary Sissons
Three escape air emergency A LIGHT plane with three people on board made an emergency landing at Moorabbin Airport on Monday following a mechanical malfunction. Emergency services including police, ambulance and fire rescue teams were called to the airport about 1.10pm
after receiving reports the six-seater aircraft was in trouble. It is believed internal instruments indicated the aircraft’s landing gear was not properly locked in place. The pilot was forced to circle the airport for 40 minutes until emergency crews were in
place before landing safely at 1.50pm. The pilot and two passengers were not injured. The incident occurred almost a year to the day of the emergency landing of a light plane piloted by a student in a paddock behind Moorabbin Airport.

the Harrison’s home run Bauer Brief
By Hadyn Godony SINCE winning The Voice, life has been a whirlwind for Harrison Craig. The now famous teen makes fewer trips to his local shopping strip in Chelsea, preferring to avoid the many high-fives he is likely to be in for when he ventures out into his hometown hub. “I’m just cruising along today, but yep, it’s not very often that I go to the shops now because of that, but at the same time it’s quite enjoyable,� Harrison said. Harrison appears calmly focused on making the best of his somewhat mammoth win. Not long ago, while chatting with his chosen mentor Seal, Harrison asked: “How do you measure your success?� To which Seal replied “Happiness�. Reflecting on that now, with much success already behind him, the 19-year-old is humbly taking fame in his stride. “I guess that you can measure success in two ways, because I’ve kind of come to the conclusion that when you get to the point where you’re as good as everyone else, you then measure your success against your own best, not anyone else’s,� Harrison said. “Everyone has their own style and quirks. For example, it’s easier for Beyonce to do a trill than it might be for Andrea Bocelli. “So it is something that you need to think about or at least, that is the conclusion that I have come to. “Being on The Voice was just terrific. There wasn’t a dull moment; it was just terrific for the whole time. In the semi-finals, Harrison nailed his rendition of perhaps the greatest love song of all time, Unchained Melody, making the classic track a personal piece, rather than a righteous carbon copy. “When we rehearsed that, we jumped

into the room and we sang through it, then Seal said ‘Oh my god, that was superb’ so I thought,great there’s not too much I need to do with it. “Then he said that you need to make this song really big and pretty much that’s what we did. The last note needed to fit the epic feel of the song. I’ve just come from a two-week writing and recording trip to the United States. “On the way back I called in to France to see Seal. I spent a week with him, so that was great. In the three weeks away I caught 10 international flights. I had a ball.� Harrison hooked up with his manager in the United States but also travelled solo much of the time. Prior to that, he performed at about a dozen shopping centres across Australia. “Every single time I perform, I’m ‘up there’. Right now, he says his focus is on More than a Dream tour, which includes three shows at Crown Casino. “After that we are planning the next record which will come out next year. We really want to make a record that hits everyone for ten. “So planning that while also taking a writing trip was important to me. I really want to write and make my own mark on everything and so a part of that will be to use some of those songs for the album. “But keep in mind that you might write 100 songs but maybe only want to use two. It’s a fine line between a good song and a great song. “I really need to pick and know what song will work for me. What I’m doing now is my passion and my drive and a joy and a pleasure. But there is still some time to relax. “Just the other day I went with a friend to a cute little cafe in Mt Eliza. I really love the peninsula; Sorrento, Mornington, Crib Point are really beautiful.� For tour dates click on harrisoncraigofficial. com
September 2013 The Carrum electorate is beneďŹ tting from a number of major road projects and the Victorian Coalition Government continues to invest in our local roads. The removal of the rail crossing at Springvale Road, Springvale is currently underway and will make for smoother travelling along the Edithvale Road extension. Kingston residents also welcome construction of the Dingley Bypass, a new four lane divided arterial road linking Warrigal Road and Westall Road, which will be realised with a $155.7 million commitment. $100 million has been committed to upgrades on the Frankston line and the $1 million Mornington Peninsula Freeway Feasibility beneďŹ ts study is underway. One of the Victorian Government’s major projects, the East West Link will provide a much needed alternative to the M1. It will cut congestion and slash travel times, improve Victoria’s productivity and connectivity and support Victoria’s long term economic and social development.

Blushing bride: Leonie Taylor with her Wedding dress at the Chelsea Brides exhbition. Picture: Gary Sissons
Wedded to history THOSE walking down the aisles at the Chelsea and District Historical Society for the next few weeks will be able to see how bridal fashions have changed throughout the years, from the 19th century to the present day. The society is hosting a Chelsea Brides exhibition at the Courthouse Museum until early November. Society historian Margaret Diggerson said the committee decided to wed their expertise in putting together exhibitions with the Chelsea community’s own wedding day memories and mementoes. “All the bridal dresses on display have some connection with Chelsea and fortunately no two dresses on display are alike which makes it an interesting exhibition,” Ms Diggerson said. Historical society secretary and long-time Chelsea resident Leonie Taylor has loaned the wedding dress she wore when she married her

late husband Roy Taylor in 1962 to the exhibition. Like all brides, she can vividly remember her special day, including the weather conditions. The wedding took place at St Paul’s Church of England in Frankston. “The wedding was on a Friday evening – it started to cloud over but the weather then came good,” Ms Taylor said. “I married at the age of 25 which was a late age to be married then,” she said. “But I wanted to travel around Australia first before settling down.” Ms Taylor’s dress was made from lace material that belonged to her grandmother, who was a seamstress, and dates back to the 1800s. It is just one example of the bridal fashions through the years on display. The ‘Chelsea Brides’ exhibition is on display at The Courthouse Museum, The Strand, Chelsea on Saturdays 10am-2pm, Sundays 1-4pm. Call Margaret Diggerson on 9772 1897.

Award for sea care program AN INNOVATIVE program that teaches school children the environmental importance of marine life in Port Phillip Bay and Western Port Bay has received state-wide recognition. The Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute received a “Community Action and Partnership” category award for its ‘i sea, i care’ school ambassador program at the 2013 Victorian Coastal Awards for Excellence last week. The ‘i sea, i care’ initiative promotes the message that marine ecosystems and species are “too precious to lose”. Its ambassador program visits schools to spread this message and recruit student educators to help their classmates understand how the actions of those living near marine areas can put marine life at risk. Dolphin Research Institute executive director Jeff Weir said the program exists thanks to the support of many partners, including the City of Kingston who shared the award with the institute as a leading council partner. Many Kingston area schools have participated in the program. “We are very proud of our young ambassadors and our wonderful team,” Mr Weir said. The Victorian Coastal Awards for Excellence are awarded by the Victorian Coastal Council, which provides advice to the Victorian Minister for Environment and Climate Change Ryan Smith on the strategic planning and management of the Victorian coast. Mr Smith presented the award to Mr Weir and Dolphin Research Institute education director Mandy Robertson at a function held at Melbourne Museum.

The accident occurred when the woman clipped a tree after turning a corner into Wunalla Rd shortly after 3pm on Friday. The late-model iMax people mover bounced off the tree onto two wheels before rolling onto its side and landing in the middle of the road. The woman was not injured and was able to free herself from the wreck. Police, SES, ambulance and CFA crews attended the accident site.

New breath of life for Mordi lifesavers By Chris Brennan MORDIALLOC Life Saving Club has welcomed the approval of plans for a $4 million coastal resource centre to replace the club’s aging headquarters at Mordialloc foreshore. Kingston councillors endorsed plans for the development of a multi-purpose centre which would house the life saving club and provide space for training, meetings and functions held by community organisations, schools, cultural
S T A R
heritage groups and the public. Kingston Council will provide $2.5 million for the project, while Life Saving Victoria has committed $1 million, with a further $700,000 being sought from state and federal coffers. Kingston mayor Ron Brownlees said the existing MLSC facility was ageing and could not cater for expanding membership of the club or community demand for meeting space. The approved design would provide the club with “terrific, much-needed facilities” that will allow it to host major life
saving events as well expanding its programs and membership, Cr Brownlees said. By opening up the facilities to the community, the new building could be fully utilised throughout the year, not just during the peak summer period, he added. MLSC president Grant Rattenbury welcomed council approval of the project which would allow the club to expand its training and operations, as well as opening up the facility to use by the broader community.

FEATURE PROPERTY
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Winner takes it all THE exterior colours of properties in Sandhurst Estate may be set, but residents can make the interior a bold statement. From the Italian quartz feature wall, porcelain floor tiles and an incredible Egyptian crystal chandelier that towers above the grand entry foyer, the statement being made here is one of absolute quality. Built by Grollo Homes, this magnificent home is on an 811 square metre block in the exclusive gated community of Sandhurst Island. Measuring 511 square metres (55 squares), the home has three zones. The ground floor consists of a step down study, located to the right as you enter, and then through into a splendid games and theatre room. The whole area has pure wool carpets and there is air-conditioning. One of the intriguing aspects are the curved hallways. While most homes are a series of straight lines, this property produces an exciting sense of not knowing what is around the corner. From the foyer, a perfect semi-circle takes you around to the kitchen – or downstairs bathroom – and back again, where the sleek “atrium-effect” windows overlook the pool and entertainment area. The kitchen has an Asko stainlesssteel dishwasher, Smeg under-bench oven and Italian granite benchtops. There is a massive pantry. The adjoining family and dining room also overlooks the pool area. The third zone is upstairs with four bedrooms and another pleasant sitting area at the top which has access to balconies at the front and back of the home. The elegant master bedroom has walk-through robes with mirrored doors leading to a Roman baths-inspired ensuite complete with his and hers vanity units and a spa bath flanked by columns and complemented by exquisite quartz tiles. The three other bedrooms share a third bathroom. Outside is a nice play area and the in-ground pool has a spa and water feature. A Balinese-style cabana is the focal point of the large timber deck entertainment area. One of the most pleasing things about the house is that it is a home. It is certainly beautiful but not a museum. Children have played here, friends have gathered for parties, and for the discerning buyer who recognises quality, this stunning home is ready to be a part of their memories.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Thief makes off with daily takings, local properties in great demand Compiled by Matt Vowell From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 20 September 1913. THE Criminal Investigation department was informed early on Thursday morning that a bag answering the description of the one which was stolen from Epsom racecourse on Wednesday, together with the day’s takings, totalling between £700 and £800, had been recovered. The discovery was made by a Mr Thomas, who lives at “Koonwarra,” St. Kilda Road. The bag, which has been identified by the club officials, was lying open in a right of way off Commercial road, Prahran. Needless to say, the bag was minus the cash which it had contained on the previous day. Several detectives are engaged in investigating the mystery, but suspicion cannot be fastened upon any individual, and as the stolen money is not identifiable it seems more than probable that the thief or thieves will go undetected. *** THE demand for properties in Mornington is still very great. During last week, the following lots changed hands:- Mrs Auld’s cottage in Tanti road was purchased by Mrs Lewis, who also bought Mrs Bradford’s house in Waterloo Place. Mr T. Coxhell disposed of his cottage, at the corner of Queen Street, to Mr Easterby, all at satisfactory prices. Several building allotments have also changed hands. Mr R. Ford, grain merchant has sold his business, in Main Street, to Mr Blacker, who will take possession in the middle of October. *** MR Geo. A. Parrett, dentist, of 233, Toorak Road, South Yarra, notifies that he visits Mornington every Monday, and may be consulted at the Pharmacy. *** OWING to the absence of Messrs A. Millard and A. Thomas, two of the leading players of the Frankston Brass Band, the band will not be able to play out for about three weeks. *** MR T. Sage met with a very painful accident on Tuesday. While riding one horse and leading a young one, the led animal suddenly pulled back, and nearly tore his thumb off. *** A WORKING bee did great work at the Somerville show ground lately, under the leadership of President C. Grant. Over 100 young pine trees were planted along the east and north sides of the ground. *** THE annual ball in connection with the Frankston tennis club will take place on Wednesday evening next. Elaborate preparations are being made, and everything points to a most successful evening. Tickets may be obtained at 3s for gents and 2s for ladies. *** THE names of Mrs O’Grady, and Misses Hogan and Brody were inadvertently omitted from the list of assistants in our report in last week’s issue of the Frankston Brass Band bazaar. These ladies worked hard, and rendered valuable assistance, to the bazaar committee. *** BY an advertisement in this issue it is notified that Major Chas W. Camp bell has arranged with Mr H. C. Dannevig, Director of Fisheries, to give a lecture, illustrated with lantern slides, on fish life, in the Mechanics’ Hall, Mornington, on a date to be fixed in October, due notice of which a will be given. *** THE annual meeting of the Frankston Horticultural and Agricultural Association will be held in the local hall on Tuesday evening next, at 8 o’clock. The business of the meeting will be to receive balance sheet and report, election of officers and committee, and any other necessary business. A full attendance is requested. *** THE Somerville Fruitgrowers’ Association are planting ornamental trees, around their ground in Somerville. This Association is a lively body, and its president and secretary, with their committee, are always on the qui vive for anything that will tend toward the beautifica-
tion of their grounds or the advancement of the society generally. *** MR W, Hayes, sanitary expert, submitted to us an automatic disinfecting and hermitically sealing W. C. cover, a most effective sanitary contrivance, which is rightly called a necessity and not a luxury. The formula will destroy all obnoxious odours, and a fly or mosquito will not enter the pan thus installed. Orders may be booked at Brody and Mason’s, Frankston, where a sample can be seen and all particulars supplied. The price comes within reach of every householder. *** IT is with the deepest feeling of regret we record the death of Mrs W. White, eldest daughter of Mr and Mrs W. Wilson, of Mornington, which took place at Mrs Thompson’s private hospital on Saturday afternoon last. The deceased was only 25 years of age, and a native of Mornington. The sad news came as a great shock to her many friends, as only a few days previous she, in company with her husband, journeyed to Melbourne, to see Mr Andrew White, who is in ill health. Great sympathy is felt for Mr White, who is left with two young children. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon, and was largely attended. *** WE have secured the agency in the Peninsula for Lonsdale and Bartholomew’s beautiful “Art” series of Private Xmas Cards. A sample book will be on view at our office, and inspection is invited. Prices range from 4s a dozen upwards. *** WHILE riding Stripe in the Hurdle Race at the Wangaratta Turf Club Show Races on Thursday, C. Clarke, of Frankston, was thrown heavily, owing to his mount falling. He was picked up in an unconscious state, suffering from slight concussion, but an hour later he was recovered sufficiently to be removed to town. *** THE annual rally of the various branches of Christian Endeavours on the Peninsula was held in the Frankston Methodist Church on Thursday evening. Notwithstanding the showery nature of the evening there was a good attendance, representatives being present from Somerville, Hastings, Langwarrin and Mornington. Rev R. Jackson conducted the meeting. Greetings were received from the Somerville, Hastings, Langwarrin, Red Hill, Mornington, and Mordialloc branches. Rev J. F. Butler, of Mornington, gave an interesting address on the “Definition of Christian,” and harmony was rendered by Misses Twining, Croskell, and Messrs Reed and C. Ellis. Miss O. Sherlock presided at the organ. The secretary (Mr Ellis) read his report, which showed that good success had been made during the year. Previous to dispersal the visitors were hospitably entertained by the local branch, which concluded a most pleasant evening’s entertainment. *** AFTER months of hard travelling over roads that were mainly bad and often non-existent, the Country Road Board has completed its inspection of Gippsland, which was undertaken to enable the board to draw up its plans for road construction and maintenance in that territory which has been so greatly neglected in regard to road facilities. Mr W. Calder, the chairman of the board, yesterday discussed with Mr Hagelthorn the schedules and maps prepared. Mr Hagelthorn suggested to Mr Calder, that before sending out the schedules to the municipalities for consideration, the board should work out an estimate of cost, lest after approval of the schedules it should be found that the work in Gippsland would absorb an undue proportion of the amount available for expenditure on the roads of the State. It is proposed to expend in the next five years a sum of £2,000,000 on road construction, and £2,000,000 on maintenance. The board is completing surveys for urgent work in Gippaland. in order that provision may be made in the estimates for its commencement.

Everybody wants to twerk (but me) By Stuart McCullough SO it has come to this – mankind’s endless quest to discover what lies beyond the bottom of the barrel has given us ‘twerking’. Never again will we be forced to ‘flash mob’, go ‘planking’ or perform the Harlem Shake because now we have something even stupider to do. Yes, it seems the fickle finger of fate is both pointed skywards and surrounded by two other fingers on either side as the letters ‘I’ and ‘Q’ are officially removed from the alphabet, pending a review. Where did it all go wrong? I’ve nothing against dancing. Indeed, I’m one of the few people I know who owns a copy of Footloose on both VHS and Betamax. If that doesn’t sound convincing, you should know that I frequently wear leg warmers to work on days other than casual Friday and take the notion of cutting the rug so seriously that I never go anywhere without scissors. But despite my passion for dancing, I cannot abide the appalling social phenomenon that is to ‘twerk.’ That said, at least the name is apt. One thing I love about dancing is that the moves are often appropriately named. ‘The Twist’ is exactly as it sounds. So too ‘the Jerk’. Sure, things start to get a little hazy around ‘The Bus Stop’ and the less said about ‘The Mashed Potato’ the better, but no system is infallible. However, for all the controversy it attracts, we can at least say that ‘twerking’ is the perfect name, because anyone doing it looks like a complete and utter twerk. Apparently, twerking has taken social media by storm. By ‘storm’ I don’t
mean a few drops of rain and a puff of breeze but, rather, the kind of deluge that destroys umbrellas and ruins your guttering. Many people have been quick to point the big foam finger in the direction of Miley Cyrus, but those people are simply twerks-come-lately who don’t understand the complex history of twerking. To grasp this most heinous of phenomena, it’s necessary to go right back to the beginning. For those unfamiliar with this particular dance style, let me come right out and say it’s a long way from the foxtrot. It is, however, probably the biggest dance phenomenon we’ve seen since Peter Andre’s Funky Junky swept across Melbourne’s south eastern suburbs in 1993. To ‘twerk’ involves a dancer moving his or her hips
in a vigorous motion in order to cause their buttocks to wobble like a plate of day-old jelly. Granted, right now it looks somewhat shocking, but in fifty years time, couples will be twerking at their weddings. The earliest recorded twerk was in June 1776, when noted polymath Benjamin Franklin first performed the controversial dance during a break from drafting the Declaration of Independence. Thomas Jefferson was heard to remark at the time: “Some things, once seen, can never be unseen”. Indeed, a fear that Ben Franklin might have a couple of sherries and twerk some more helped ensure the Declaration remained a relatively concise document. Naturally enough, the practice had
spread to Europe by the early nineteenth century. Mostly it was act performed in the dingiest and most squalid of public houses, where liquor ran freely and buttocks shook into the small hours. For that reason, it remained something of an underground movement until in 1838 it threatened to break in to the broader public consciousness. The original draft of Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens had the eponymous hero’s request for “more” greeted with a severe outbreak of twerking by Mr Bumble. Thankfully, the scene was excised from the novel and the dance remained largely unknown. Sadly, not everyone showed as much restraint as Charles Dickens. Steadily, twerking garnered public acceptance
until, last century, it officially entered the mainstream. In 1951, Melbourne’s first Moomba Festival contained a twerking competition until it was replaced by the Birdman Rally in 1965. It was also the official exhibition sport at the Helsinki Olympic Games in 1952 (with Liechtenstein beating out traditional rivals, Freedonia for the gold medal) and used by Henry Kissinger to clear the room during a particularly testy negotiation with Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai in 1972. After that particularly fraught exchange, things went kind of quiet on the twerking front. Until now. Life’s a funny old thing. It’s strange to watch a young woman – whose father inflicted ‘boot scooting’ on the world courtesy of the crime against music and spelling that was Achy Breaky Heart – embrace twerking so fulsomely. Mostly it’s a shame to see anyone who can actually dance choose to dance like that. More disturbing still is the sight of prime ministerial aspirant Clive Palmer (regardless of how deeply misplaced that aspiration might be) decide that the best way to connect with ‘the kids’ is to sacrifice any notion of dignity and ‘twerk’. Granted, the act occurred on radio, which was probably the perfect medium. Still, if Thomas Jefferson was still with us he would, doubtless, shake his head in despair and most definitely not his buttocks. I hate to say it, but I almost miss planking. It seems intellectual by comparison. Come back Harlem Shake, all is forgiven. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

series of ABC TV’s top-rating drama series The Doctor Blake Mysteries. Further cast members will be announced on 30 September. The Rocky Horror Show is a true classic and one of theatre’s most endearing and outrageously fun shows. It opened at London’s Royal Court Theatre on 19 June 1973, quickly developing a cult following, and was adapted into the 1975 film The Rocky Horror Picture Show, which holds the record of the longest-running release in film history.
*** LOST radio recordings of The Beatles are to be released on the follow up to the band’s 1994 album On Air – Live at the BBC. Fans were asked to delve into their personal archives to find taped recordings of the Fab Four for the new anthology, On Air - Live at the BBC Volume 2, which will be released in November.
*** Australia’s Princess of Country Music and Golden Guitar nominee, Aleyce Simmonds will release her latest album Believe this week. It follows her 2011 acclaimed album Pieces of Me which gave me my favourite song Bondwood Boat. Believe was produced by bass guitar maestro and record producer, Simon Johnson, featuring some backing vocals from sister Karlee Simmonds and Mornington Peninsula singer/songwriter, Lachlan Bryan. “I’m really proud of the new record, it’s me and the fact my family had a part of it. Simon Johnson is an incredible producer and we did this album over four months. He is a beautiful person to deal with,” Aleyce said. “To record a song with my sister Karlee was very special to me. “Glenn Hannah, apart from doing the artwork, played guitar and played a big part in the recording of this album.” The first single, the title track, debuted at number five on the iTunes charts and has already found a home on country music radio across the country. The accompanying video clip produced and directed by Ross Wood, will be released alongside the album. The album Believe was officially launched this week. Standout tracks include Joshua, The Tree House Song, My Life Drives Me to Drink, Tonight,
Born in a Tent: How Camping Makes us Australian. Does this equate with those who loathe camping being unAustralian? I went camping as a boy over Christmas; the backyard of some property way, way away in a foreign place called Tootgarook that was full of croaking frogs and Frenchmen. A tent, hard work, spiders, centipedes and ants. Shared a tin of baked beans for lunch. Home two days later with an entrenched decision: never again. That and “psycho” motels. Fortunately there was food in the ice refrigerator when safely home. *** MINISTER for Ageing David Davis explains the measured reallocation of government-managed aged care services to non-government providers and with it budget documents revealing an expected saving of $25 million in 2014-15. So they switch to privatisation (read: profits and a reduction of nurse-topatient ratios) and they save heaps. In the same breath they say the quality of care will not suffer. I smell a rat. Aged care services, profit or quality? You cannot have both. *** SO Daisy Thomas (Collingwood) has a foot problem. Specialist surgeon says operation. Second specialist says no need, just rest. Third specialist agrees
with the second. Football manager Rodney Eade says they will get two more medical opinions for certainty and reassurance. What certainty? Many years ago when my son was a small tyke, my wife took him to a “growth specialist”, amusing me for years to come. Lawyers, doctors and the Treasury are licensed to live on robbery, thereby embarrassing Robin Hood. (Dithmarus Bleskenius, in his accurate description of Iceland, 1607: “They lived on dried fish, water and whey (the water part of milk after the formation of curds) and yet, without doctors or specialists, many of them lived to 250 years.) *** THE Australian Charities and Notfor-Profit Commission set up to be the watchdog of the $43 billion received and spent by Australian charities could be scuttled under the Liberals. (60,000 large charities and 600,000 not-forprofit groups). Cardinal Pell’s crowd and his Sydney push have been active in reducing their scope and no doubt backed by Kevin Andrews and his Catholic mates in Barnaby Joyce, Joe (“Get over it”) Hockey, Andrew Robb, Christopher Pyne and, of course, Truthful Tony. The self-righteous few. Let us remove the mining companies’ tax on excess profits, scrap the school kids bonuses and rewrite history by deleting all left-wing
This iconic brand holds a unique place in theatre history, a show which has defied the decades and continued to grow in popularity.

Millions of people all over the world have and continue to see productions of The Rocky Horror Show and sung along to classics like Sweet Transvestite, Dammit Janet, I Can Make You A Man, Touch-a Touch-a Touch Me, Over At The Frankenstein Place and of course The Time Warp.

A Grain of Salt AS a boy, I rarely won at Snakes and Ladders; a sign of life to follow? Roll the bloody dice. Not another snake! Followed by the child’s catchcry “It’s not fair”. My mother would say “Neither is Joe Louis’s backside”. Saturday 7 September was the nerve-wracking doom and gloom double-header. Prior to the election I did another of my famous surveys (OK, I exaggerate) asking the reason they vote for who they vote for. Two misinformed answers on the economy, one hated Kevvy (he being a Queenslander) and the rest voted “because they had to”. I wonder about the many following the word of Sir Rupert but then remembered the brilliant minds of the German inventors of the Mercedes motor car, despite the German masses voting for the failed Austrian artist Adolf. We voted in favour of vested interests, corporate and private wealth, privatisation and taking people’s houses for commercial profit. Andrew Bolt calls my lot the cultural elite. Is that a compliment? Like football it’s all about revenge; the anticipation, sooner or later they eat humble pie. Carlton finished above Collingwood; the pain. Sunday 8 September the sun was shining and Dromana had won a premiership. It’s all about bias. One may well love a football team and hate the others, ditto politics but my theory is if you

were to truly research your reasons, you would arrive at nothing to enforce or change your mind. The same applies to a play, a movie, a television show, a painting. I was asked once if I was given the choice of having (owning) one piece of art in the world what would it be? Perhaps something expensive enough to sell, to buy a unit in Sorrento with a lift, double glazing, private CCTV and a revolving north-south balcony? Nah – too far from the RSL. As for my once mighty Magpies, instead of Buckley talking of blame, culture change and lazy footballers maybe a look in his mirror? Didak as a sub, no Jolly, and Reid wasted? Outcoached. *** I GREW up amid an aura of rejection. We played cricket or football in the street; lightpoles for wickets; homemade footies; kids everywhere, fathers overseas. A car once or twice a day, the horse-drawn baker’s cart and the iceman; the smell of fresh bread or pinch a block of ice. Two captains, each to pick their sides. In case of an uneven number the captains tossed for the last one – regularly me. Was I afforded counselling? They laughed? Mongrels. One time my sister wanted a game and they tossed up for her. I’d like to say I felt sorry for her, but I laughed. *** BILL Garner has written a book:

According to my favourite newspaper (Herald Sun), Truthful Tony is already doing a fine job, and the promise of 2 million jobs; interesting. Cliff Richard is releasing his 100th album. Who listens, who buys? Elmore Leonard (Get Shorty, Be Cool) has gone to God. His epitaph: “If it sounds like writing, rewrite it.” The design change on Woolies $1.25 litre of milk highlights “permeate free”. What does that mean?

Eagles soar in final term to drown Sharks PENINSULA LEAGUE By Andrew ‘Toe Punt’ Kelly EDITHVALE-ASPENDALE created Mornington Peninsula Football history on Sunday when it went from the wooden spoon to Peninsula League premiers in the space of one season. Edithvale trailed by 30 points at three quarter time against Bonbeach, but booted six goals to none in the last quarter to grab victory 13.15.93 to 12.14.86. It was a rags to riches story. Edithvale finished on the bottom of the ladder last season. It had to play an Elimination Final, where it came from behind to beat Mornington, then easily defeated Mt Eliza in the First Semi before beating Frankston YCW last week in overtime to advance to the Grand Final. The Eagles did it the hard way. Ruckman Markham Johnson carried a hip injury into the match, full back Nick Connellan punctured his lung before the finals began and star youngsters Bailey Dale and Mark Mullins
PAGE 26
suffered from gastro the night before the game. Edithvale looked like the walking wounded at three quarter time. Nathan Dunn, who came into the side after injuring a shoulder a fortnight ago, copped a knock on the same spot midway through the clash and was clearly experiencing discomfort. However, Edithvale coach Troy Shannon managed his playing group superbly. Johnson spent a lot of time of the bench, Dunn was looked after and Dale and Mullins spent long periods on the pine. The common thought going into the game was that Edithvale needed to stay within striking distance. Given Bonbeach had an easy pathway through to the grand final and Edithvale did it tough, many believed the Sharks would finish the game with greater run. How wrong that was! The Eagles booted five goals in eight minutes to hit the front and then sealed the match at the 28-minute mark of the
Chelsea – Mordialloc News 18 September 2013
last quarter to win by seven points. Earlier in the match, it was the even spread of the Sharks that saw them boot six goals to two in the second quarter and four goals to three in the third to lead 12.10 to 7.10 at the final change. Paul Rebeschini was providing enormous drive from half back, Shane McDonald was dangerous through the middle and Calhan McQueen was proving to be a handful in attack. Both McQueen and McDonald booted three goals in the first three quarters, while Owen Hulett, Shaun Foster and Michael Turville also kicked multiples. Edithvale constantly wasted opportunities going into the forward line and the hero of the week before, Matt Kremmer, couldn’t get his hands on the footy. Shannon moved Kremmer up the ground in the last quarter and shifted Connellan from full back to full forward. He also asked for one last effort from the likes of Johnson and Dunn, as well as his youngsters.
Shannon also called on his defenders to work hard, play in front and leave nothing in the tank. The moves paid dividends and the players responded to their coach. Kremmer began to clunk everything, Connellan looked dangerous in attack and had a hand in three last quarter goals, Johnson went out and gave his all, Steve and Tim Mannix devoted everything they had for the good of the team and the defenders, led by Drew Westfield and Jordan Derbyshire, rebounded every Bonbeach entry. Brent Bowden was also moved back and was a rock down there. Then there were the unsung heroes such as Jack Holden, who was simply superb with more than 20 touches. Tom Turner came on and did a job on McDonald, Jeremy Heys was huge in the last with three goals and Brad Tagg never stopped running and working. Troy Ogier got his hands on the footy through the middle, Pat Poore shouldered a lot of responsibility in the ruck with Johnson being injured
and Zac Muscialli and Adam Budge constantly drove their team forward. Craig Wray was strong when he was called upon and Todd Woodbridge continued to stick his head over the footy despite his light frame. The Eagles simply needed a sniff of victory. The first opportunity came at the six minute mark when Connellan marked and goaled and then they had to wait until the 16-minute mark to really start their charge. What unfolded in the last quarter was incredible. Edithvale looked gone 30 minutes earlier. Make no mistake, Bonbeach didn’t lose this Grand Final, Edithvale won it. They did it the hard way, from last in 2012 and going into the biggest game of 2013 with some injured players. The Eagles rolled the dice, stayed loyal, managed the best they could and won. The Edithvale-Aspendale Football Club should be extremely proud of their players’ efforts.

Snapper season time By Kosta Linardos YOU can feel the excitement in the air as the days start to get that bit longer and the temperature that bit warmer. Snapper season is upon us and while we’re not in the thick of it yet it looks like it’s going to be a great season. Black Rock, Mordialloc and Rickets Point areas are still proving best for those targeting snapper, with a 4.5kg fish landed from a kayak off Black Rock last week. While many fish are still small and some days will be tough going this will start to improve. Switching to soft plastics and lighter gear will provide a challenge and will be a lot more fun until the big fish come through in numbers. Fish Arrow Flash J’s and Berkley Gulp Jerk Shad soft plastics will work wonders when targeting snapper. Garfish reports have been a lot quieter over the past fortnight and whiting captures have slowed dramatically. Squid are still strong but the southern end of the bay from Mt Eliza through to Sorrento and Portsea have been best. For those wanting to get out of town and chase some trout the season is well and truly open and the rivers are fishing well. The Goulbourn River has produced good fish over the past few weeks and the Eildon Pondage has just been stocked and offers excellent fishing for the kids. Power Bait, worms or maggots are all great baits to target some big trout in the Pondage. For the spear fishermen the bay was extremely clear on the 15th with visibility excellent although forecast heavy rain in the days ahead may ruin this. Large schools of silver trevally, squid and south eastern drummer have been noted with good-sized bream mixed in with them. Until next fortnight, stay safe on the water, use fresh bait and check the bungs twice to be sure!
Artico to cool jets before making a move

DROMANA Premiership coach Gavin Artico intends to spend the next three weeks celebrating his 40th birthday and enjoying a family holiday in Bali. Since announcing his resignation from the Tigers a week before the grand final, Artico has been linked to a number of clubs to coach them next season. On Nepean League Grand Final day, it was rumoured that Artico had accepted the Frankston YCW coaching position. From the horse’s mouth, this was far from the truth, although the Stonecats did want to talk to him on the morning of the Grand Final. The two-time premiership coach has also been linked to the club where his coaching career began, Langwarrin. This rumour emerged after Artico attended the engagement party of one of his former players. And then there’s the Seaford rumour, as well as positions further up the line in the Eastern Football League and Amateurs. Artico said he was going to be a “very busy man” over the next 12 months. “If you believe all the rumours I’m locked into a few jobs, so I’ve got some juggling to do,” Artico joked. “The reality is that I’m keen to coach next year but I have some personal things that I want to do before I make any firm decisions. “The most important thing I wanted to do was share the celebrations of a premiership with the players and committee of the Dromana Football Club. “We all worked so hard to achieve the result and I couldn’t believe that there were clubs calling me about their coaching position less than
24 hours after the final siren of a premiership. To me, that was just disrespectful and said a bit about their club and how they go about things to be honest. “In the next few weeks I have the Dromana presentation night, my 40th birthday and a trip overseas with my family. I’ll probably make my decision on the beach, I reckon. “If it comes to the stage where I get back and there are no positions available, I’ll just take a year off and go around and watch footy,” he said. Artico said the celebrations after the Grand Final in the town of Dromana were like something he had never experienced before. “I just couldn’t believe how much this premiership meant to the whole town – community, businesses, football club supporters,” Artico said. “We posed for photos with the cup with people in the street, hotels, restaurants, local businesses – it was just amazing and very humbling. “We spent some time with some of the 1971 Dromana Premiership players, which was just sensational, and we even paid a visit to a member of that ’71 team who had missed the game because he was in hospital. He broke down and cried he was that proud of us. “It was just a wonderful experience and one that will stay with me forever. Premierships really are something that need to be respected and treasured,” Artico said.
Yabbies appoint Hallal TYABB has appointed Ray Hallal as its senior coach. Hallal took over the role as interim coach last season after the club parted ways with Brad Coller. There were strong rumours last week that Tyabb was either going to fold as a club or apply to play in the Southern League. However, president Terry McGrath said that rumour was garbage. “We have appointed a senior coach in Ray, we are financially sound as a club and we are looking to recruit a few players,” McGrath said.
