Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au THE leader of a mosque at Langwarrin believes a vendetta is being waged against his congregation. Imam Syed Wadood Janud said three men were attacked at the mosque by intruders at about 9pm on Friday 4 September, leaving one victim with a broken nose and the others with facial injuries. The Bait-ul-Salam Mosque in Leisureland Drive is the Victorian headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, an Islamic movement whose members are persecuted by Muslims in some other countries, particularly Pakistan. Members of the community were said to be in shock at the cowardly attack and security at the mosque is to be increased with the addition of CCTV caneras and higher fences. Imam Janud said three men who abused and assaulted members of the group had “probably been here before”. “[Racism has] been an ongoing issue and we have had people come in four times in the past three months,” Imam Janud said. “But this is the first time they have confronted and assaulted our members physically and that’s why the police became involved.” Senior Sergeant Ron Barbury, of Carrum Downs police, is appealing for witnesses to the incident in which two Muslim men in their 60s and a 45-year-old man were assaulted. A 61-year-old Cranbourne man had his

nose broken and the others sustained facial injuries. Senior Sergeant Barbury said the assault was “obviously prearranged”. “The mosque is out of the way and does not attract attention,” he said. “You would have to know it’s there to go there. It’s not like it’s on a main highway. “It was certainly a targeted attack.” Iman Janud said a man in his 20s entered the Muslim community centre about 9pm and began “racially abusing and using indecent language and cursing” its members. “He was asked to leave and our members followed him out but there they were met by two others and the trouble began.” The offenders had jumped the fence to gain entry to the mosque premises. “They are the same fellows; they are targeting us. It is sad that these few people in the community are against us. “We endeavour to reach out to the community so that people know what we stand for.” Despite the violence the centre will not be seeking criminal charges. “We will ask the police to have them come and visit the mosque so that they can see who we are and to discuss any issues they may have,” Imam Janud said. “We want to be part of the community in Langwarrin and, hopefully, after talking with them we may change their minds.” Continued Page 8

The Ambassador sells... again Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE remains of the former Ambassador Hotel function centre in Frankston sold at auction for $2.24 million at a mortgagee auction last week. Developer Harry Matsoukas was the last man to put his hand up at the auction last Thursday (10 September) to buy the derelict function centre after bids began at $2 million in the forced sale. Former site owner Joanna Kordos, the latest in a line of owners, had borrowed money from the Jadig Group to buy the Ambassador function centre and planned to build 37 “luxury apartments” at the 325 Nepean Hwy address.

He said some more information about the consortium’s plans should be available within the next week. The adjacent chapel at the Ambassador Hotel is also on the market for sale. Selling agent Max Braude of KBL Commercial said he hoped the latest sale of the function centre could lead to one of Frankston’s most high-profile eyesores finally being fixed. “We hit the reserve [$2 million] on the first bid and the vendor is happy,” he said. Frankston councillors reluctantly agreed to grant Ms Kordos a 12-month extension on the planning permit to build apartments at the Ambassador Hotel site in March after the former owner missing deadlines to begin construction work at the Nepean Hwy site.

The Times understands mortgagee Jack Gringlas was forced to repossess the property since Ms Kordos failed to make agreed repayments. At last week’s auction Mr Gringlas said Ms Kordos had threatened to take out an injunction to prevent the sale of the Ambassador function centre but this did not happen. Ms Kordos did not return several calls asking for comment. The Ambassador’s new owner told The Times he bought the site on behalf of a property development consortium and while the group intends to build apartments the designs will be different from Ms Kordos’ doomed attempt to construct 37 luxury apartments. “We’ll definitely develop it but we’re not really sure until the boys commit to it,” Mr Matsoukas said.

On the waterfront: South East Water’s new head office will officially open for business this week four years after the water authority decided to move its main operations to Frankston. Picture: Gary Sissons

Jobs flow to water body HQ Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE jobs tap will finally be turned on at South East Water’s new head office in Frankston four years after the water utility company agreed to make the move to a new Nepean Hwy building alongside Kananook Creek. The company’s new towering eight-storey 25-metre high office building on Frankston’s waterfront will officially open for business on Monday (14 September). Frankston Council controversially ignored its own building height restrictions and fast-tracked its planning process without architect plans in 2011 to lure South East Water to Frankston amid competition from the Kingston and Dandenong areas. Some councillors, including those who voted to approve the building’s construction four years ago, have since expressed their disappointment at the building’s “ugly” design at recent public council meetings. South East Water paid council $4 million for the site stretching from Beach St in the north to Playne St. As a statutory body, South East Water will pay no council rates. Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer said the

opening of the new business office at the WatersEdge building at 101 Wells St “is another big step in the rejuvenation of the Frankston city centre”. “Having hundreds of new feet on our city streets each weekday is going to be a real boost for local businesses, and will encourage new investors to set up shop in Frankston,” she said. “Our focus is now to work with state government to deliver a high-quality redevelopment of the Frankston Station Precinct which generates even more business for local traders and more jobs for local people.” South East Water spokeswoman Caitlin Rode said more than 500 staff will work at the building from Monday. “We are currently recruiting for a number of roles across the business and will continue to provide ongoing employment opportunities for people in the region. South East Water currently has 100 employees who are based in the Frankston region and adjacent suburbs. “We are very excited for our move to the area and we are looking forward to joining the Frankston community.” South East Water merged staff from three offices at Heatherton, Dandenong South and Lynbrook to base its employees at the new Frankston building.

FANTASTIC DEAL ON ALL ROLLER BLINDS

Dolphins: don’t panic, club not in financial strife FRANKSTON Dolphins have denied the football club is in financial dire straits despite carrying about $1 million in debt to partially finance the completion of the club’s new stadium and function centre. Dolphins general manager Brett Angwin says the club, like other VFL clubs, does service a debt of $1 million but the money is used partially as “a financial investment” for the club’s new function centre as part of a $3.4 million redevelopment of the club’s ground due to officially open next Saturday (19 September) and for “ongoing operations of our club”. “We are not in any sort of financial trouble whatsoever,” he said. “We were audited by AFL Victoria about three weeks ago and received endorsement on our operations.” Mr Angwin said the club’s revenue had been restricted while the new stadium took shape. The general manager said the Dolphins have “been inundated” with functions bookings “going through until next mid-year” so the state of the club’s finances should rapidly improve. The $3.4 million plus redevelopment of the club’s facilities has been funded by the club, the state government, the federal government, AFL Victoria and Frankston Council. The Dolphins board has reappointed coach Patrick Hill, formerly an assistant at Box Hill, for a further two years despite the seniors losing all its games this season.

Mr Angwin praised Hill’s work under trying circumstances. “We knew we didn’t have the money [this season] to invest in experienced and high-profile players … the average age of our playing group last year was 19 and we knew we were in for a fairly tough year. He said the club is “well ahead” in its recruitment plans for next season. “We have retained 35 of our existing list and we’ve been scouting and recruiting both of the peninsula leagues, VFL and AFL players both past and current.” Further recruitment announcements will be made after players have ended their involved in finals action at other clubs, Mr Angwin said. The Frankston Dolphins are one of the few VFL clubs that are unaffiliated with an AFL powerhouse and are solely responsible for finances and player recruitment. Mr Angwin succeeded Simon Green as Dolphins general manager earlier this month having joined the club this year after more than 20 years’ experience of football administration in the Kimberley region. A club statement issued after Mr Green’s sudden departure said: “This decision is in line with the football club’s forward future direction. “The club would also like to express its thanks to Simon for his efforts in the development of the Frankston Football Club during his tenure.

SHEEP showing might not feature in the mainstream curriculum – unless your child goes to Woodleigh School, Langwarrin South, that is. Here, it’s an activity taken seriously by the students as part of their agricultural program. And, as proof of their interest, they are hosting a show in December and inviting other schools to compete. Woodleigh, in Golf Links Rd, has a farm where the students organise almost all their requirements. Student Ella McCarthy said it had a range of animals, including Corriedale sheep, pigs, ducks, chickens and goats and other animals from time to time. “One part of our farm is for the sheep showing team,” she said. “We breed, raise and run a flock of roughly 50 Corriedale sheep, some of which we take to shows. “For the past three years we have held a show of our own. The 2012 show was only for the Woodleigh sheep showing team, and we ran classes and competitions for all the students and their families.

“As it was such a success, we have decided to open our show to other sheep showing teams such as Elisabeth Murdoch College, Chairo Christian School and Flinders Christian Community College, after having successfully run two shows for these schools.” Students have spent a lot of time organising and planning this year’s event, to be held 5-6 December at Woodleigh. Students prepare up to two sheep and show them in classes. Ribbons and prizes are awarded. The school is seeking sponsorship packages, such as the gold sponsorship, which offers money or prizes equivalent to $500. There’s also a silver sponsorship: money or prizes of $250 and bronze sponsorship: money or prizes of $50. In return, it offers advertising in all catalogues and schedules leading up to the event, logos on all signage, banners and handouts to the public, and promotions over loud speakers at the show. Call the school for details: 5971 6100.

Campaign funding questioned Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au LABOR has refused to confirm whether electorate officers were seconded to work on election campaigns in Frankston, Carrum and Mordialloc before the state election last year amid allegations taxpayers’ money was misused to pay for election campaigning. Three unnamed Victorian Labor MPs and a party official told the Herald Sun last week they feared parliamentary rules banning the use of electorate office funds for political campaigning had been broken. The Labor insiders said electorate staff had allegedly been “pooled” from Labor Upper House MPs electorate staff to work on the party’s Community Action Network field campaign aimed at winning government. Labor media adviser Kosta Pandos asked for a statement to be attributed to a government spokesperson when contacted by The Times about the allegations. “These allegations are desperate and untrue. All activity undertaken by electorate officers, and Victorian Labor pool staff, was in keeping with parliamentary rules,” the statement read. “Pool staff arrangements have been in place in the Victorian Parliament for almost 20 years and have been overseen by presiding officers from both sides of politics. “Pooling resources is an efficient way for political parties to support

MPs and conduct parliamentary party business.” Repeated requests to confirm whether electorate officers campaigned in Frankston, Carrum or Mordialloc went unanswered. Labor’s election campaign also included help from unpaid volunteers and union members. Labor’s “boots on the ground” approach to electioneering in the lead up to November’s state election has been credited by Premier Daniel Andrews as a key factor in the party’s victories in marginal seats. The so-called sand belt seats of Frankston, Carrum and Mordialloc are pivotal to both Labor and the Liberal Party’s chances of forming government. All three electorates swung to Labor last November with Paul Edbrooke, Sonya Kilkenny and Tim Richardson winning the seats from Liberal incumbents to contribute to a total of 48 seats won across the state against the Liberal National Coalition’s 38 seats. Sean Armistead, the Liberal candidate for Frankston at last year’s state election, said the allegations made from within the Labor Party are troubling especially since in Frankston’s case “all you needed was about 170 votes to change hands” to win the seat. “To think that there’s potentially been a misuse of taxpayer dollars to help the Labor campaigns causes serious questions to be asked and it has to be investigated,” he said. Former Carrum Liberal MP Donna Bauer said “numerous people” had expressed concerns about the possible

Many happy returns DETECTIVES from Hastings and Frankston combined on Monday last week to raid a Clyde property and recover an extensive collection of stolen property. Detective Sergeant Mel Nixon, of Hastings CIU, said items found in a shipping container in the early-morning raid included a “tinnie” with outboard motor, six trailers, excavator, tractor, 7gm of the drug ice, radio jamming device, five Pee Wee motor cycles, numerous power tools and a rifle. A 55-year-old man has been charged with trafficking ice, possessing ice, being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm, handling stolen goods and possessing the proceeds of crime. He has been remanded to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on 15 September. “We have been able to reunite many of the items with their owners,” Detective Nixon said. “They are pretty happy.”

misuse of taxpayer funds. “It is well known that the Carrum electorate was a key focal point for that Community Action Network campaign and that large numbers of its campaigners were very active in the electorate throughout 2014 and on election day,” she said. “Carrum constituents are understandably keen to know whether the ALP misused any taxpayer resources during the campaign for the seat of Carrum. “They are worried that voters in Carrum may have been deceived by

what was portrayed as a community campaign but may in fact have been a professional campaign, resourced using illicitly obtained taxpayer funds. I believe they are entitled to know the truth.” The Victorian Parliament’s Legislative Council will investigate the allegations about the misuse of paid electorate officers and decide whether an in-depth inquiry is needed. Mr Armistead said any wider investigation will not change the outcome of the Frankston election but “it’s about making sure it doesn’t happen again”.

A TAXI driver was bashed after dropping off two men at the derelict former Ambassador Hotel, Nepean Hwy, 9.45pm, Monday 17 August. Detective Senior Constable Paul Roberts, of Frankston CIU, said the 27-year-old driver picked up the men at Dandenong South and dropped them behind the complex. The men, described as being in their 20s, refused to pay. When his back was turned one of the men punched him to the head, and then both punched and kicked him as he lay on the ground. Detective Roberts said the men snatched the driver’s iPhone and stole money. The taxi driver suffered swelling and bruising to his face and body. Witnesses should call Detective Roberts on 9784 5555.

Langy legend hangs up boots

Continued from Page 1 Senior Sergeant Barbury said he was planning to visit the centre this week “to reassure members” of police support. A pressing topic of discussion will be a 10 October rally by far-right fringe groups – perhaps United Patriots Front or Reclaim Australia – protesting against mosques and their teachings generally. “We have been advised a call to protest has gone out and – in the event it goes ahead – we will have a police presence there,” he said.

“We are not sure how organised these people [the protesters] are so we will be preparing just in case.” Senior Sergeant Barbury added: “What drives people to do these kinds of acts I don’t know. Whether they like it or not, we have a lot of different religions and races in our community and we have to live harmoniously. Targeting a particular group of people for whatever reason is pointless and wrong.’’ He said the three offenders were in their early 20s, Caucasian and wearing hooded jumpers.

ANOTHER season has rolled by at Langwarrin Soccer Club and with it possibly the end of a long and distinguished career for one of Langy’s favourite sons, Ben Caffrey. Saturday (5 September) saw Ben play his 317th game for the blue boys and in front of his family and many friends the team didn’t let him down with a 2-1 win over Doncaster Rovers at Lawton Park. A fitting finale to a career that has spanned over 25 years, most of them as a Langy boy. Ben had stints at Moorabbin, Richmond and Bentleigh Greens earlier in his career but always stayed part of the Langwarrin Soccer Club faithful. I guess it would be hard not to with his mum, dad, brother and sister all playing or being involved with Langy for a large part of their lives. Ben was there at the club during the early 2000s when it enjoyed some of its greatest success culminating in promotion into the First Division. During his time at LSC Ben has scored many goals as a striker and made plenty of friends both on and off the field. In the latter part of his career the senior coach Gus McLeod found a new position for Caff at the centre of defence. Ben was always cool under pressure and never panicked on the ball, perfect traits for a sweeper. In his 36th year the sun is setting on the first team career Ben Caffrey, highs and lows, there have been plenty of them but everyone should remember the highs because I reckon there was more of them. Ben has said that it’s not an official retirement and he will make himself available for selection to Gus and the boys if or when he’s needed. But that’s typical of Ben, never wanting to lose the ball. Chris Balfour

Explosion big bang theory Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au THE force of the explosion that rocked a peaceful Skye Sunday morning late last month would almost certainly have injured the offenders, Frankston Crime Investigation Unit detectives say. Security footage of the blast – believed to be of a malfunctioning aerial explosive device – shows the pre-dawn sky lit up as it goes off, with residents surrounding the reserve on Sanoma Drive rudely wakened from the slumber. Police are appealing for public assistance in tracking down the culprits – if only to clear them of anything sinister in their motives. Emergency services were called to a reserve bordered by Sanoma Drive, Danube Close and Santa Clara Mews after witnesses heard a “sonic boom� just before 6am, Saturday 29 August. The noise was so loud that one resident reportedly thought a car had crashed into his garage. Police arson and forensic chemists combed the area for clues after the homemade device was detonated, finding PVC debris and gunpowder residue scattered over a large area. “It is believed anyone near the explosion may have suffered injuries from being peppered with PVC fragments, as well as flash burns and, possibly, hearing damage,� Detective Senior Constable Paul Roberts said. “The injuries, perhaps even perforated eardrums, could have resulted as the explosion happened only three

Hoon charged, car impounded FRANKSTON Highway Patrol police impounded a Holden HSV utility after the driver was caught hooning at Carrum Downs on Tuesday night.

Soon afterwards they watched a repeat performance of the hooning – this time right outside the Carrum Downs police station. The car was intercepted and the 31-year-old male driver was interviewed over driving offences. A roadside drug test allegedly indicated the presence of an illicit drug in his system, but he refused a further drug test. His vehicle was impounded for a month and he is facing costs of $1000. The Carrum Downs man is expected to be charged on summons for improper use of a car, careless driving and refuse an oral fluid test.

Guns stolen

Unexpected wake-up call: Frankston detectives examine the scene of the Skye early morning blast. Picture: Gary Sissons

or four seconds after the device was detonated.� The getaway vehicle – believed to be a small SUV, such as a Toyota Rav 4, Jeep Cherokee, or Ford Territory – may also have received panel damage or smashed windows on the driver’s side. The vehicle was seen doing a wrong turn into Rhone Gv, before driving north along Sonoma Dr, and stopping at the park bounded by Danube Cl and Santa Clara Mews. “It’s also odd that the offenders decided to ignite the device in a spot so close to houses and where they may have injured people – even at that early hour,� Detective Roberts said. “It was stupid to ignite it so close to

a tree, instead of further out into the open, and also so close to their car as it went off almost straight away. “This leaves us to ask whether it was a prank, or whether there were more sinister motives. We believe a terrorist-motive is highly unlikely, and that it may only be young people out for a lark. “That’s why we ask that, if perhaps a friend, or a mother, father, brother or sister, can help identify those responsible, we will be able to eliminate any other motives.� Police have released CCTV footage of the explosion and the vehicle seen nearby around the same time. Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

FIVE shotguns and two .22 rifles were stolen from a Seaford house between 10am Monday and 10.30am Tuesday last week. Detective Sergeant Paul Mealia, of Frankston CIU, said the firearms were registered and properly secured at the Seaford Rd house “which is a busy street, so we hope some may have seen something�. He said the offenders forced entry to a gun safe and made off with the weapons, valued at $7000. “We are concerned that these firearms are out in the community,� he said. Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or Frankston CIU 9784 5555.

Raid nets ice, gun POLICE raided a Seaford house on Tuesday last week and arrested a 23-year-old man for possession of drugs and a pen pistol. He was bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on 24 September. Detective Sergeant Paul Busuttil, of Frankston CIU, said the drug ice was found in the early morning raid. He said the home-made pistol, which fires

a .22 shell, was “one of the dangers [police] have to face daily�. Drugs use was a “massive problem� in Frankston, he said. “A lot of people are naive as to the damage drugs do – especially ice,� he said. “It’s prevalent in all kinds of street crime, such as assaults, as well as family violence and even collisions between motor vehicles.�

Storage unit raid A MAN arrested beside a Frankston storage unit last week has been charged with trafficking methamphetamines, handling stolen goods and possessing the proceeds of crime. He faced Frankston Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday and was further remanded to appear at the same court on 6 October. Detective Senior Constable James Keegan, of Frankston CIU, said the Noble Park man, 40, had been under surveillance for some time. Police will allege he had traffickable quantities of the drugs ice, ecstasy, and liquid GHB in his pockets and in the storage unit, as well as cash, power tools, seven iPads, electrical goods, “a couple of safes�, and a stolen racing bike.

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

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

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

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

New home for hospital specialist clinics OUTPATIENT services for Frankston and Mornington Peninsula residents will be improved by specialist consulting facilities at Frankston Hospital. They were opened by Health Minister Jill Hennessy last week. New outpatient facilities have been built on the site of the old emergency department, and now service Peninsula Health’s women’s, children’s, adolescents’ and orthopaedic specialist clinics. “The facilities include 22 consulting rooms, procedure rooms, waiting areas and multi-purpose rooms,” Ms Hennessy said. “They provide an improved experience for patients, families and carers with an innovative patient check-in kiosk, breast-feeding space, colour coding to help people find their way around, and better amenities and privacy.” Ms Hennessy said the $81 million hospital redevelopment, opened earlier this year, had delivered a new, larger emergency department, new

nursery cots, intensive care beds, short-stay ward and two 32-bed acute adult inpatient wards. Last year, Peninsula Health was one of the state’s busiest health services, with more than 66,000 presentations to the Frankston Hospital emergency department and more than 50,000 specialist outpatient clinic appointments. This year, Peninsula Health has received $405.9 million for new intensive care unit beds as well as funding from the Hospital Beds Rescue Fund. It will also receive funding to establish a rapid assessment chest pain service at Frankston Hospital enabling it to treat an extra 2000 patients each year, Ms Hennessy said. Where does it hurt?

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

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

Muscroft, Qualifying Series surfers, Cahill BellWarren and Jack Perry and under-16 Australian team member India Robinson. In the B grade, South-West Boardriders Club (Warrnambool) came first in front of Point Lonsdale. South West will surf in A grade next year with Peninsula Surfriders Club being relegated to B grade.

The way ahead: Small Business Minister and MP for Dunkley Bruce Billson at the launch of the Brotherhood of St Laurence’s Creating Futures for Youth program, with the brotherhood’s executive director Tony Nicholson, youth development worker Sali Shayia, and Citi Foundation’s Guy Matthews. Picture: Gary Sissons

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

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

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

BAYSIDE Solicitors’ clients are usually very grateful for their representation. In police matters, it is often the parents of clients who pen their appreciation after appearances in court. A recent thank you note to Principal Lawyer, Ashley Tickner, from the mother of a young offender included the words “absolutely terrific result due to your experience, for which I am grateful” whilst another said “I cannot express how deeply grateful we are to you for your professional expertise with the charges against [our son]”. It is also the grateful parents (particularly where young children are concerned) who express their thankyous to our family lawyers after a successful resolution. Last week, it was an executor who delivered chocolates and a thank you card for work in a difficult estate administration. Established in 1998, Bayside Solicitors now have seven Lawyers covering a range of practice areas, and their solicitors pride themselves on getting the right results for their clients. It is the largest Family Law firm on the Mornington Peninsula, with four dedicated family lawyers and a further two lawyers assisting clients with intervention orders. “We do things a bit differently” says Principal Lawyer Ashley Tickner, who works primarily in police matters and construction law matters. “We go to court ourselves, we charge affordably, often using the court’s own approved costs scales rather than the exorbitant hourly rates that others charge, and we provide really good service to our clients. That is why people come back to us, and refer others - and we keep on growing as a result”. With larger size comes the ability to have solicitors work in particular areas of law. “The days of the generalist sole practitioner are gone” says Alysia Mein, the other Principal Solicitor of the firm, who practises in commercial law and Wills and Probate, “there is just too much law to

stay on top of.” Bayside Solicitors have now added Planning Law to their already established Construction Law services. “Not many lawyers are involved in Planning matters on the Peninsula therefore it is a niche we are happy to fill”, explains Ashley. “We are all local people and understand the local issues.” One of the significant differences at Bayside Solicitors is that its practitioners, as Barristers and Solicitors, appear in as many of their Court cases as they can. Thousands of people have benefitted from the representation that Bayside Solicitors has provided since its inception in 1998. Many other law firms brief Barristers, as sub-contractors, to appear in any court hearings. As Mr Tickner says “The advantage of the Bayside Solicitors’ way is that there is no doubling up of legal personnel involved in the case. The barrister and solicitor who takes the instructions and draws the documents is generally the one who is arguing the case in Court for their client. Our clients save on costs, and, as a result of seeing what the judges look for, we can structure our clients’ court documents to get the best results in court That also puts us in a better negotiating position to settle before a court hearing.” Over the years, Bayside Solicitors has taken on some very difficult cases. The culture of the firm is such that it prides itself on its dedication to its clients and its tenacity to take on difficult matters and see them to a successful result. That attitude continues with the new staff that are carefully selected to work within the firm. There is no need for local people to go outside of Frankston to source good legal advice and representation. And if clients are happy, Bayside Solicitors’ staff always appreciate flowers and chocolates.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

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

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

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

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

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

THE debut album Milky Waves from brother and sister outfit Voltaire Twins was launched at Shebeen in Melbourne to an appreciative and much anticipated crowd last month. TWINS Jaymes and Teagan Voltaire, both in their late 20s, have been gigging together since high school days and have amassed a huge following along the way. THE pair decided to form a band while at university. Jaymes studied creative writing, Teagan studied filmmaking and both were in separate bands. It was during this time they realised they had something unique going on so gave it all away to concentrate on their music together and became the Voltaire Twins. Their genre is dance music, sonic vibe 70s disco with Fleetwood Mac being a big influence on them. Using a bunch of synthesizers, electronic drum machines, including live drums and percussion, bass guitar and lead, their sound is contagious with unique overtones of pop and synth riffs. One of their songs, Glass Tooth, incorporates the large sound of live percussion and drums with over lay of drum machine producing a sound dripping with sweat and glitter. Their signature blend of 70s disco, 80s pop and 90s beat takes you on a nostalgic journey to when synthesizes were first introduced and forging ahead with an outer worldly sound. Milky Waves was recorded using Pro Tools software. Jayme’s stresses that Ableton was used for writing because it’s more of a loop base program and great for arranging due to the ease of moving things around. Then once everything was in place, they recorded live into Pro Tools. Although you can hear the fabulous electronic sound throughout, rather than use midi controls they used live instruments, which created depth and substance to the mix. Says Jaymes: “It is a different way of recording with the 70s sound. The drum sound and mike technique have its own idiosyncratic textures and techniques and this is what we really like. I know it’s not what is really happening in the scene, but we thought when it comes to making the album, it should reflect what we really love, which is 70s pop and disco, so that’s the route we took.

Frankston Times 14 September 2015

“We do use a drum machine when we play live and send different midi signals from a laptop to the drum machine, which has separate outputs from each drum within the drum machine. Because we use a lot of loops live, an MPC sampler is used. So I basically trigger a lot of things with one hand while I’m playing the synthesizer with the other hand together with Teagan playing her synth. So you really have to pay attention within the song being played. It forces you to step up your game and make it as live and engaging as possible.” I asked him how he gets his inspiration to write a song. “The kernels of ideas often come to me in the shower. It’s like sensory deprivation and I enter into a kind of meditative state. Because the water is hitting me, my self-awareness takes over. I have a lot of ideas in the shower but resist the urge to do anything with them, instead I let them percolate in the back of my mind. Then I like to spend the day and night in the studio, which is a window less space with double locked doors, sound proof and dark. I like to sit and meditate on those thoughts and let them consciously brew up. I like to find different ways to break a rhythm and sometimes like to break a perspective when writing.” Both write songs and both have different approaches. Recently they came back from New York City after attending and participating in the South by Southwest Festival, which runs for several weeks. Nearly every record label along with film companies, marketing companies, producers, and music industry people are there and it’s a big 24-hour conference come party atmosphere going on. Whilst over there they made heaps of friends and connections and the name of The Voltaire Twins is now known internationally, which fortunately for them, has set up a growing name within our very own Australian music scene as well. Milky Waves is available for sale through most records shops. For more information visit: Voltairtwins.com soundcloud.com/voltairetwins facebook.com/voltairetwins

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

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

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

Stonecats in the big dance PENINSULA LEAGUE

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

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

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

This family, friendly and relaxed regatta is set to be reinstated as the Club’s flagship annual event. Back by popular demand, the Petersville Regatta will attract a competitive group of keel and cruising boats from across the peninsula, Victoria and Australia. Participants will enjoy the return of this family, friendly and social regatta. The Petersville Regatta is held in high regard by yachting enthusiasts from Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron and beyond and is considered a nostalgic and historic event.

Hick and subsequently G. Matthews, both of whom were the most successful boat competitors during the history of the event. This year the Petersville

PAGE 32

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

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

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

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

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