Force rehab for drug users

Christian group sees salvation for drug problems in Singapore Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au A FRANKSTON-based organisation working within the murky world of drug users for more than two decades wants the law changed to force drug addicts into rehabilitation.

The Rev Angel Roldan, who along with his wife Ulli heads the Christian Life-Gate organisation, says Victoria should follow Singapore with a compulsory four-month rehabilitation for drug users and 15-20 year jail sentences for drug traffickers.

He said legislation would be re-

quired so that police, doctors or agencies could force drug users into a rehabilitation centre.

Waiting for a court to decide “takes too long … these people are killing themselves”.

Mr Roldan stops short of advocating the adoption of Singapore’s capi-

tal punishment laws.

Statistics show that the two executions carried out by Singapore in 2014 were for drug-related offences.

who want to be helped; I am targeting the ones who do not want to be helped,” Mr Roldan said. “Our government is already apprehending drug traffickers, but not drug users … the majority of drug users are involved in crime in some way.”

Mosque leader’s peace offering to attackers Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au IN a show of peace that reflects a main tenet of the Ahmadiyyan Islamic sect, the leader of a mosque in Langwarrin has shared a meal with the father of a young man who allegedly attacked members of his congregation.

A 61-year-old man was admitted to hospital with a broken nose and other injuries after being attacked by three men who are believed to have jumped a fence to gain entry to the Bait-ul-Salam Mosque in Leisureland Drive (‘Mosque ‘mauraders attack three’, The Times 14/9/15).

Police are believed to have identified and spoken with the three alleged intruders who were described by witnesses as being aged in their early 20s, Caucasian and wearing hooded jumpers.

No charges have been laid at this stage and the leader of the mosque, Imam Syed Wadood Janud, has said he does not want retribution.

Instead, he would rather the intruders and their families and friends go to the mosque for a barbecue.

Senior Sergeant Miro Majftorovic, of Frankston CIU, said police are “working closely” with Imam Janud. ”It’s an educational process and the suspects are young, but the course of justice has to be worked through,” Senior

cision made by police.

“The police have called the families [of the alleged attackers] and have told us it should be seriously investigated,” Mr Bhatti said.

“If the father and police agree, we’d like to have a barbecue or an event of some sort of event if they want to come back again.”

The mosque is the Victorian headquarters of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, an Islamic movement whose members are persecuted by Muslims in some other countries, particularly Pakistan.

Following the latest incident Imam Janud said he believed 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.”

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.”

No retribution: Imam Syed Wadood Janud has offered the hand of peace to the family of a young man who attacked worshippers.

Sergeant Majftorovic said.

The assaults at about 9pm on Friday 4 September were the latest in a series of offences against the mosque over the past two years.

In other incidents, bottles have been thrown and worshippers abused by intruders in the grounds of the mosque and sensors have been damaged on the electronic gates.

“If they ring the bell we can let them in,” mosque spokesman Aziz Bhatti said.

Mr Bhatti said Imam Janud had had lunch on Monday 14 September with the father of one of the three men allegedly involved in the latest attack at the mosque.

Two police and the three victims had been among the 10 or 12 people at the lunch.

He said the victims had also said they did not want charges laid against their attackers but realised this would be a de-

Motorcycle park finally gets back on track Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE Frankston Motorcycle Park looks set to be open for summer with midOctober the likely date motocross riders will be able to return to the tracks at the park in Seaford.

The motorcycle park has been closed since of the death of 25-year-old Danny Edlington in early April on the main track at the Frankston Motorcycle Park (‘Fatality closes motorcycle track’, The Times 13/4/15).

Frankston Council leases the facility to the Frankston City Motor Park Incorporated club.

Council has approved a new management model for the park and councillors Glenn Aitken and Colin Hampton met with club members last Sunday (13 September) to discuss the reopening of the motorcycle park.

Under the management model, council will lease the facility to the club, who will operate the motorcycle park alongside with Motorcycling Victoria, which will see club members covered

by MV’s insurance policy.

The lease will be for 11 months and will be reviewed monthly.

Cr Aitken, chair of a transition committee including existing members of the motorcycle club committee, said the club will oversee fees and memberships at the motorcycle park.

“We believe this management model will be effective. With the required changes being implemented by the club, we look forward to signing a

long-term lease agreement which will see the club take back full control of the facility,” he said.

“I would like to congratulate the representatives of the club and Motorcycling Victoria for the way they have worked with Council through this difficult but necessary process.”

Motorcycling Victoria had at one stage walked away from any oversight of the motorcycle track after pushing for a three-year lease at the facility.

Frankston Motorcycle Club president Ralph Ridley said it had been good for club members to hear directly from council about the conditions imposed to reopen the park.

“The meeting was called to let the members of the park here directly hear from council that if they don’t go down the Motorcycling Victoria avenue that they would close the place. The point came across that Motorcycling Victoria will be a part of it,” he said.

“For some reason they all thought if they all got down there [last Sunday] and jumped up and down enough council might look at it another way but that was never going to be the case.”

Mr Ridley said MV “seem to want to break into the recreational side of the sport so they probably need to look at it from that point of view rather than a race format”.

Club members are concerned fees will rise making sessions at the motorcycle park unaffordable for some.

“It is what it is and we’ve just got to get through it,” Mr Ridley said.

MPs backed Abbott, welcome Turnbull Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au TONY Abbott was ousted as prime minister last week by his Liberal Party colleagues but local federal MPs Bruce Billson and Greg Hunt remained loyal to Mr Abbott until the end.

Both confirmed they voted for the former prime minister in the party room ballot won by challenger Malcolm Turnbull 55-44 last Monday evening (14 September).

Bruce Billson, the member for Dunkley and until Sunday, the Small Business Minister, said last week the Abbott government was “getting plenty of good things done but there wasn’t a sense that was being conveyed well and clearly to the electorate”.

“We’re two years into a three-year term and my colleagues felt a change in captain-coach would be a sensible thing to do,” he said.

“I voted for Tony Abbott. Being a cabinet minister brings with it an additional level of responsibility to work with and support the prime minister.

“I take that responsibility seriously and it might be a little old-fashioned but I’m a great believer that you go home with those who brought you to the dance and felt that was the right and proper and honourable thing to do.”

Environment Minister Greg Hunt, the member for Flinders, also believed cabinet loyalty is important.

“I supported Malcolm Turnbull when I was a member of Mr Turnbull’s shadow cabinet in 2009 and equally, as a matter of deep personal principle and duty, I remained loyal to Mr Abbott as a member of his cabinet and voted accordingly,” he said in a statement provided to The Times.

The local cabinet members’ sense of loyalty to their leader last week was not shared by several of their cabinet colleagues, including Julie Bishop and Christopher Pyne, who sided with

Mr Turnbull in the leadership ballot.

Mr Billson hoped the Coalition government could now put internal divisions over leadership to bed and get on with governing the country.

“I think Malcolm Turnbull has made it quite clear that he and our team start from a solid foundation of good achievements and positive momentum on the economy, on jobs, on security and a range of policy fronts but he’s indicated a particular focus on preparing our nation, our economy and our citizens for the future.”

Mr Hunt congratulated Mr Turnbull “on becoming the 29th Prime Minister of Australia”.

“Prime Minister Turnbull has already said he intends to keep our climate change policies and targets,” Mr Hunt said.

“Right now our focus is on the future. We are focused on the economy, jobs and security.

We are focused on delivering Australia the good government it deserves.”

Mr Billson admitted some constituents were “were quite sad with the way Prime Minister Abbott was dealt with” by his Liberal Party colleagues and “felt if there was to be a change they would rather that was done at the ballot box” but he said others had contacted his office in the past few days to “recognise the need for change”.

“They realised we could not risk a change of government and Bill Shorten and the CFMEU running the country,” he said.

Mr Abbott was deposed as prime minister by his party just under two years after winning the 2013 federal election.

His time in office was marred by controversy including broken pre-election promises including funding cuts to education and hospitals and a first federal budget deemed by many to be unfair on lower and middle-income earners.

Opinion polls consistently showed the Abbott government was unpopular with voters after being elected.

on Sunday (20 September). Mr Billson lost his cabinet post as Small Business Minister to Kelly O’Dwyer but Mr Hunt remained Environment Minister.

Mr Turnbull will now keep an eye on opinion polls and could decide to call an election before January 2017 if the Coalition’s political fortunes improve under his prime ministership.

Partygoer punched, kicked A CARRUM youth has been arrested and charged with armed robbery after a 16-year-old party-goer in Langwarrin was threatened with a baseball bat and knife, 1am, Sunday 6 September.

The victim, of Carrum Downs, left a party at the Langwarrin hall with a group of mates but noticed they were being followed by a black Holden station wagon along Union Rd. Senior Constable Matt Pearce, of Frankston CIU, said five youths got out of the car and approached the victim, with one carrying a baseball bat and another a knife.

The victim and his friends ran back along Union Rd towards McDonald’s but, in their panic to get away, the victim was tripped and pinned to the ground and a knife held to his stomach.

The five attackers then allegedly punched and kicked him and stole his watch, mobile phone and wallet. He was ordered to remove his clothes.

The offenders fled the scene leaving the victim on the side of the road.

Police arrested a 16-year-old youth, of Carrum, on Wednesday.

He has been remanded in custody to reappear at the Frankston Children’s Court on 24 October.

Police are still seeking the identities of the remaining attackers.

Anyone with information is asked to call Frankston detectives on 9784 5555 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

SUCCESS at a Golden Gloves tournament in Brisbane recently has given new impetus to the budding boxing career of Jackson Murphy.

The 15-year-old, of Frankston, won his two flyweight bouts (52kg) at the national championships and can now realistically dream of representing Australia at the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast in 2018 and the Olympics in Tokyo in 2020.

“It was his first trip on a plane and he was terrified,” dad Jason Murphy said.

“He had two fights in two days and really stepped up to the plate, never losing a round in the three two-minute-round bouts.”

Jackson, in Year 9 at Frankston High School, fights at the Oakleigh Youth Club and “loves the fitness aspect” of the ‘sweet science’, Mr Murphy said.

“He used to play football and some of the bigger boys smashed him around a bit and he thought it would be a good idea to try boxing.

“I think it’s a good thing because it keeps him focused and away from bad influences. It’s got him interested in sport.

“He’s so keen he’s been training full on for the past couple of years.”

On the immediate horizon are the national titles in November and upcoming trials for the Youth Olympics to be held this year in St Petersburg, Russia.

Trips away cost money and Jackson is seeking sponsorship. Those interested should call Paul Layton at Oakleigh Youth Club on 0434 496 460.

Voice joins climate change debate A FORMER John Paul College and Frankston Chisholm VCE student has been offered a place at the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change – COP21 – in Paris later this year.

Madelin Orr, 19, is one of four Australian recipients of a fully-funded scholarship from Global Voices, thanks to sponsorship from her university.

“I am an external first year Bachelor of Laws student at Central Queensland University and have been granted the opportunity to represent not only Global Voices and my university – but also Australia and Frankston – as a delegate on the ground at COP21,” she said.

Ms Orr is undertaking a research fellowship on gender specific adaptation policies in climate change and will be writing an opinion piece while staying in Paris.

“Climate change affects women much more than men,” she said.

“More often than not, especially in the developing world, women bear the brunt of climate change more than men.

“By involving women in policy making, first-hand accounts of the devastation of climate change can be used to represent the feminist perspective and implement strategies used by women on a daily basis.

“This would include their knowledge of coping strategies used to ensure the availability of food production, household water supply and energy use, which will strengthen international negotiations regarding adaptation in climate change.”

The COP21 climate change confer-

ence – the21st conference of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change – runs 30 November-11 December.

The conferences provide an annual platform for governments to forge policy solutions to global climate change.

This year, for the first time, world leaders will come together with scientific experts and high-level environmental policymakers to create binding international legislation on climate, sustainability and clean energy.

“Attending this conference will allow me to sink my teeth into the debate on climate change,” Ms Orr said.

“It will assist in my knowledge of key issues regarding the role gender has to play in the practice of adaptation in a climate-based setting which I intend to address on the international stage in Paris.”

In preparation for COP21, Ms Orr joined her fellow Global Voices delegates in Canberra to meet politicians on both sides of politics to hear their views on climate change.

“The meetings were open conversations with MPs where we could ask questions on anything that came to mind, but, obviously, each delegate focused their questions on the delegations they are attending,” she said.

“I asked questions in relation to gender specific adaptation in climate change. Julie Bishop offered insight into the involvement of women in climate change policy making and areas in which I should pinpoint my research.

“We also met with members of the US Embassy, DFAT and economic advisors.”

Driver dials wrong number A MOTORIST pulled over for talking on his mobile phone “really fired up” before being involved in a scuffle with Highway Patrol police in Frankston, Wednesday morning.

Senior Constable Darren Morgan, and Leading Senior Constable Darren Myers, of Frankston Highway Patrol, intercepted the Frankston man, 45, during a police operation in Playne St. They allege the man was talking on his mobile phone while driving and called to him to get off it. “He then gave us the finger”, Senior Constable Darren Morgan said.

“We pulled him over and gave him a breath test and he returned a huge reading and it was only 11 o’clock in the morning.

“He was really arcing up and we were nose to nose on the road with cars having to drive around us, and then we took him to the station and gave him a full blood test and he recorded 0.207 per cent.”

When leaving the station, in Fletcher Rd, police allege the man used indecent language in the foyer. This has

added to his list of pending charges.

Senior Constable Morgan said police were waiting for a tow truck when the man returned to the scene, picked up a metal Barry Plant real estate sign and threatened them. “He was going to smash the car open to get some things but we blocked his path,” he said.

“He was really fired up at this stage and there was a bit of a scuffle. I almost sprayed him; he was an angry drunk.”

The police disarmed the man and arrested him for being drunk in a public place.

Under new impound laws police have the power to retain vehicles – with this owner liable to fees for towing and storage of $1068.

He will appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court early in the New Year charged with resisting arrest, being drunk in a public place, and using offensive language. His licence has been suspended indefinitely with the magistrate to determine the length of the ban. His car has been impounded for a month.

Man sought over assault DETECTIVES are hoping to interview a man, pictured, in relation to an assault outside Davey’s Nightclub, Davey St, Frankston, 1.50am, Sunday 12 July.

Detective Senior Constable Richard Brown, of Frankston CIU, said words were exchanged between two men before a 33-year-old man, of Noble Park, was allegedly punched in the face.

He was treated at Dandenong hospital next day for a fractured eye socket and broken nose.

The man police are hoping to speak with is described as Caucasian, 30 years old, short brown hair, wearing a black jumper, khaki pants and casual shoes.

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

Meals aplenty but Elsie Bath team@baysidenews.com.au IT IS 4.15pm on a Wednesday and, despite the chill of winter hanging in the air, a line of people has formed out front of Frankston City Life’s meal room.

As the door swings open each person takes a coupon from the old man who sits on a wooden stool at the entrance.

One by one they step into the warmth and safety and wait for their free meal – one of about 100 served this evening.

A young man named Anmar is among them. He has come straight from a plumbing course at Frankston’s Chisholm Institute wearing his blue overalls. His round face is filled with a smile and he sips his cordial as he talks and laughs.

The others: the drug addicts, disabled, elderly, those from broken homes, the injured and homeless, all make themselves comfortable in the meal room with tea and coffee.

These people know each other well: some have been coming here for a free meal for more than 10 years. After spending so much time together they are bound to make connections.

However, in a year’s time there will be no more free meals given here and this will not be a place for the disadvantaged and homeless to escape the cold.

When City Life’s lease runs out on its central Frankston location it will have to move as the lease it not up for renewal. The site is being developed

by Rescom Builders into a five-storey apartment building with shops at street level.

It will be one of many new apartments that are springing up in the area as part of Frankston Council’s plan to further develop the town.

Anmar loves Frankston, despite the still lingering stigma that surrounds the town and its occupants.

He is proud to live in his own apartment, but he can’t afford both rent and utilities so he showers at the City Life care centre like many others.

City Life helps so many people in the community, not by offering housing or employment opportunities, but by providing free meals throughout the week, as well as fortnightly food packages, clean clothes, blankets and toiletries. Perhaps its most important gift is a sense of belonging.

This ability to create a feeling of acceptance among community members is taken seriously by founder and CEO Mark Whitby: “I don’t think we’re brilliant at a lot of things, but we’re good at making people feel like they’re worth something, that they have value,” he said.

The small and seemingly meek City Life social worker and care centre manager Nycey Stanley echoes the core values of the organisation: “They know that they are totally accepted and that we’re not putting any judgments on them just because they need to come and ask for help.”

The smile leaves Anmar’s face and he becomes serious when he talks about his past. It has not been an easy life for him. He fled Iraq with his family and arrived in Australia with help

from the UN. He has been here four years and one month, and knows just how lucky he was to escape the nowISIS occupied area of his country.

He has since undergone surgery for a head injury received before leaving Iraq and is now recovering. City Life has been a huge support for him since he arrived, and he, along with many others, hopes it doesn’t have to move its services too far away.

Frankston Council’s property investment officer Hissan Kazi is aware that the media could attempt to make the council out as the “bad guys” in the situation. As he puts it: “Council, capitalist fat cats, trying to kick some people out [to bring in] the big guys.”

It is clear, however, that Hissan sees the proposed apartment block as a positive for the town. And, mostly, everyone seems okay with the pending move; there isn’t much animosity from the volunteers or the community members towards the council for allowing it to happen.

CEO Whitby sees the move as a positive and something to keep pushing the organisation as it extends its ability to help others.

But 63-year-old Cheryle, however, who has been coming to City Life for years, is convinced that the development is just a strategy to push the disadvantaged out to make way for what she calls “yuppies”.

Frankston Council’s community strengthening manager Liz Daley says City Life has “had a pretty close relationship with the council” for some time now, and her boss Dr Gillian Kay is working with the organisation to find a new location. Sadly, so

far, none has been found.

Whitby estimates the kitchen alone will cost $100,000 to move. Then there’s the op shop and Ispirato Café that both provide the main source of income for the organisation, care centre and meal room, the main office and other rooms needed for meetings and counselling.

It won’t be easy.

If City Life fails to find another suitable location to house its many facilities in central Frankston, this will not only be detrimental to the community members using its service, but to the other social services that will have to pick up the slack.

A key requirement is public transport, but many, like Cheryle, would not take the bus at night anyway: “If it moves too far away I just won’t be able to go, it’s as simple as that,” she said.

Things are, hopefully, looking up for Anmar: he’s almost finished his plumbing training and, with the help of care centre manager Nycey, has begun applying for apprenticeships.

Along with everyone else he sits down to his warm meal.

Despite being busy, CEO Whitby – who is figuratively (and literally) larger than life for many of the people here – walks through occasion-

ally, saying hello to the regulars and checking up on the progress of the evening.

Nycey is confident that, when it is time to inform every one of the new location, his boss will be able to instil assurance in their clients. No one will feel left behind.

After all, Whitby sees this as a new chapter for City Life: “I think this building was brilliant for us to develop [as an organisation] but I think the next building will be even better.”

THE Rosie and Luke Batty story was launched yesterday in Melbourne and Australians will again be forced to confront the reality of family violence.

Rosie Batty: A Mother’s Story tells the harrowing story of the events of Wednesday 12 February 2014 at Tyabb Central Recreation Reserve and the 18 months since.

Peninsula resident Ms Batty rose to unwanted prominence following the killing of her son Luke by his father at cricket practice in Tyabb on that day.

Greg Anderson was shot dead by one of four police officers from Mornington police station soon after when he confronted them with a knife. He had earlier threatened ambulance officers.

Ms Batty rose above her personal grief and has become the public face of a campaign against family violence in Australia. She was named 2015 Australian of the Year and has used the position to galvanise public opinion behind a call for more to be done to combat a rising tide of family conflict.

Ms Batty will hold a book signing in Mornington early next month. It has been sold out for more than three weeks.

The signing has been organised by Peninsula Voice, a relatively new alliance of peninsula churches and community support groups tackling family violence and other damaging social issues such as drug and alcohol abuse.

Ms Batty was a keynote speaker at the group’s family violence forum in Mornington’s Peninsula Community Theatre

s e i g e V r e Summ in now

last September. The book signing is also in the 400-seat theatre and Ms Batty will be interviewed by Melbourne radio presenter Jon Faine.

Peter Orton of Peninsula Voice said “Rosie has become an outspoken crusader against family violence, winning hearts and minds with her compassion, courage, grace and forgiveness”.

Rosie Batty: A Mother’s Story (Harper Collins, $32.99) was launched in Carlton on Monday.

Ms Batty is attending events at the RACV Club, Deakin University, Bendigo Town Hall, National Library of Australia in Canberra, in Perth and Sydney before she returns to the peninsula for the 8 October event at Mornington.

‘Singapore solution’ for drug users Continued from Page 1 Singapore’s Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) last year reported an eight per cent increase in the arrest of “drug abusers” and sees the drug situation in Singapore as being “worrying and challenging”.

It said about 37 per cent of arrested drug abusers were new abusers, with 71 per cent of new abusers below 30 years old.

“Given the high relapse rate, these new drug abusers will have to be carefully rehabilitated lest they continue to add to our future drug statistics.”

Life-Gate, in Olsen St, Frankston, was founded in 1992 by Mr Roldan and his wife.

“We help people out of drugs, crises and life controlling problems,” Mr Roldan said.

“We have visited Victorian prisons for 13 years and our street outreach team patrols the streets of Frankston every Friday to contact the needy and troubled youth.”

Mr Roldan said police statistics showed drug use was increasing in Frankston with 589 drug offences detected in 2011-2012 and 828 in 2012-2013.

“We are contacting many troubled youth and also adults on Friday nights during our street outreach, when we offer food and drinks behind the Frankston station and also patrolling the streets until late hours,” Mr Roldan said.

“We encounter many who are taking drugs, especially ice.”

Mr Roldan said while many people came to the Life-Gate centre for help few “are prepared to go to a rehab centre”.

“Some mothers call to ask for help because their son or daughter is taking ice, but they can’t convince the addict to seek help.

We help people by advising what options are there for rehabilitation.

We offer counselling and also try to help them in their life struggles.

“Sometimes we can help mending relationships. If they are willing, we send them to detox first and then to a rehab centre.”

Mr Roldan has a book with information and photos of rehabilitation centres in Singapore.

“The centres can be big or small.

This is the kind of strategy that needs to be discussed to make it effective.

“In the long term, the government would save money: less crime, less welfare payments, less family dramas.”

“The one size fits all strategy that governments rely upon to combat drug addiction is clearly failed.

“I believe we need a more localised approach to addressing the growing drug culture in Frankston,” former mayor and Life-Gate board member Kris Bolam said.

Singing success: The Voice of Frankston winners Paul Dillon, above, and Brooke Miller, right, belt out their tunes.

Singers are winners at Voice comp NINE grand finalists for The Voice of Frankston gave it their best vocal shot at the Frankston Arts Centre on Sunday 13 September.

About 130 friends, family and fans were entertained by “passionate and fierce competition” in the show which was filmed by Channel 31, Voice director Jenny Wilkinson said.

The adult category winner was Paul Dillon, of Red Hill, with original song Stars. He pocketed $500 cash, thanks to Bendigo Bank Frankston.

Teen category winner was Brooke Miller, of Mt Martha, singing The Power of Love by Celine Dion. She won $250, also thanks to Bendigo Bank Frankston.

Junior category winner was Raela Wagstaff, of Seaford, with her rendition of Stay by Rihanna. She received $200 thanks to Crocs Play Centre Frankston.

As well as cash prizes, winners received a single CD recording (from Pavmusic), filmed video clip (AV Friend), makeup and photography (Studio Glamour), interview with Mint Magazine, performance on RPPFM and $400 in

vouchers from Frankston businesses. The total prize pool was $4500.

Organisers say contestants will have opportunities to perform at The Festival of Lights in November and Frankston Waterfront Festival next year.

“Coaching sessions offered to the performers pre-concert helped refine their song choices and performances before the judges of music industry experts,” Ms Wilkinson said.

Special guest performers included last year’s junior winner Fox DeRoche, who sang his acoustic version of Hit Me Baby One More Time by Britney Spears.

Others were last year’s adult winner, Sian Crowe, singing Etta James’ At Last, this year’s senior winner, Karen Harvey, singing Valerie by Amy Winehouse, and 2013 adult winner, coach and judge Cail Baroni, singing Impossible

by James Arthur.

The audience enjoyed a performance by Team Cail – with teen category grand finalists Brooke Miller, Sierra Phillips, Bec Hoadley and Cail Baroni – singing Titanium

by Sia.

More train pain for drivers on way Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au DRIVERS’ pain could be train commuters’ gain when eight new X’Trapolis trains take to Melbourne’s rail tracks later this year.

Metro Trains plans to lower boom gates at several level crossings for longer times, including “the majority” of those on the Frankston line, to maintain safety at road and rail intersections since the X’Trapolis trains have quicker acceleration than existing trains.

Boom gates could be lowered for up to 15 seconds longer before any train approaches a level crossing on the Frankston line for safety reasons.

Metro spokeswoman Pauline

O’Connor said level crossing timings on the Frankston, Werribee and Williamstown lines will be adjusted.

The crossing timing is specific for each level crossing and needs to be assessed individually, but generally boom gates will go down between one and 15 seconds earlier,” Ms O’Connor said.

“The reason for this is to ensure the safe operation of the level crossing for road, pedestrian and rail users.”

She said “the majority of level crossings along the Frankston line will be affected”.

One X’Trapolis train has been running along the Frankston line since October last year. X’Trapolis trains have been running elsewhere on Melbourne’s rail network since 2002.

Longer wait times for drivers to cross railway lines could cause longer traffic jams during peak travel times.

Metro says all boom gates will close for longer periods “in a staged approach” by mid-November.

The Labor state government has promised to remove eleven level crossings along the Frankston line, by separating road from rail, within eight years.

The eleven Frankston line crossings to be removed are: North Rd (Ormond), Balcombe Rd (Mentone), Centre Rd (Bentleigh), Charman Rd (Cheltenham), Edithvale Rd (Edithvale), Eel Race Rd (Carrum), McKinnon Rd (McKinnon), Seaford Rd (Seaford), Skye Rd (Frankston), Station St (Bonbeach), Station St (Carrum).

Need for speed: New faster X’Trapolis trains on the Frankston line mean boom gates at level crossings will be down for longer for safety reasons. Picture: Yanni

Councils align for port at Hastings Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au THE environmental health of Port Phillip and job creation are major arguments being used by Mornington Peninsula and Frankston councils to justify a second container port being built at Hastings.

In submissions to a select committee into the lease of the Port of Melbourne the two councils have lined up with other bayside municipalities wanting to protect the bay.

The shire, Frankston and Greater Dandenong are also part of the South East Melbourne (SEMS) group of councils lobbying to expand the Port of Hastings.

At least one member of SEMS, the Shire of Bass Coast, is less enthusiastic and wants to see economic, environmental and social impact studies before any decisions are made about building a container port at Hastings.

Landlocked Greater Dandenong - where “inland ports have been proposed - is concentrating solely on saying there should be no delays in proceeding with plans to develop Western Port.

“While the current focus is on the Port of Melbourne, it would be poor policy not to start thinking ahead about what else will be needed to guarantee south-east Melbourne’s freight future,” Greater Dandenong mayor Cr Sean O’Reilly said.

His council wanted to make sure a second container port was ready to start operating as soon as the Port of Melbourne hit capacity. That meant

Port in waiting: The number of ships coming int the Port of Hastings hovers around 50 a year and is likely to stay that way unless it is developed as the state’s next container port. Picture: Gary Sisons

that planning and construction “should be timed to run seamlessly”.

“The development of a second container port at Hastings would provide Melbourne’s industrial heartland across Greater Dandenong and the south-eastern suburbs with the efficient freight and transport services it needed to remain globally competitive, and to grow jobs,” Cr O’Reilly said.

The councils are concerned that the state government’s proposed lease of the Port of Melbourne provides for compensation if a second container port is built.

Before it was elected last November Labor also outlined plans to build a new port at Bay West, inside Port Phillip just north of Geelong.

Since its election Labor has said it wants Hastings increasingly used as a bulk port, for natural gas, petroleum products and, possibly, coal.

The question of just where the state’s second port should be built has been referred to the newly created Infrastructure Victoria.

Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer says having a compensation clause in the Port of Melbourne lease “would be

the nail in the coffin for the proposed expansion of the Port of Hastings”.

“Frankston City currently has 15year high unemployment of 8.3 per cent. The Andrews’ Government’s current position is very unwelcome for Frankston City and our neighbouring areas, some of which have unemployment of up to 12 per cent,” Cr Mayer said.

Frankston has been promoting itself as the logical “commercial hub” for an expanded Port of Hastings.

Cr Mayer said Hastings was “the ideal” location for a container port.

She said Frankston’s submission to the select committee “highlights the need for the state government to enter into discussions about alternative opportunities to stimulate the economy in the south east”.

“Council would also like to see a commitment made to the protection of Port Phillip and its natural environment.”

Mornington Peninsula Shire’s submission states that previous channel deepening had “caused demonstrable physical loss and damage to this shire and to its beaches, natural assets and economy”.

However, the shire did not offer any meaningful opposition to the 2004 channel deepening, except to say it would be opposed if there was damage to the environment.

Now, it is listing environmental damage as one of its main arguments against further channel deepening and dredging at The Heads.

It says it supported the channel deepening because it recognised it would “provide international competitiveness” of the Port of Melbourne for another 30 years.

The Port of Melbourne refuted claims that channel deepening had led to the erosion of Portsea beach.

The shire’s submission also claims “a wider loss to the shire and its economy in the failure to proceed with the development of the Port of Hastings”.

The shire says the consequences of not having sufficient container port capacity when the Port of Melbourne reaches capacity (“by mid-2020s”) will be “severe” on the economies of Victoria, Melbourne’s south east and Gippsland.

Walk for William: Mornington Community Contact’s memorial walk down Main St.

Walkers think of missing toddler THE tragic disappearance of NSW toddler William Tyrrell one year ago last week was commemorated by walks in caring communities around the world.

In Mornington, about 100 people walked from the Mornington fire brigade, along Main St to Mornington Community Contact, Albert St, to raise awareness of the boy’s disappearance from his grandmother’s yard in Kendall, northern NSW, on 12 September last year.

Other walks were held across Australia, Thailand, Ireland and NZ as part of the National Walk for William Campaign.

Mornington Community Contact’s Stephanie Jones organised the walk and held a sausage sizzle “get together” afterwards.

“We want to raise awareness of William’s

disappearance and keep his name out there in the community,” she said. “We want everyone to know he is missing and to be on the lookout for him – he could be anywhere.

“Also, we want everyone to be aware of the Crime Stoppers number 1800 333 000.”

She thanked Mornington Community Contact volunteers Narelle, Sophie, Stuart, Sharon, Phil and Kathryn “who donated their time and effort to make the walk a great success”.

News reports on the day say NSW police received more than 300 calls relating to the child’s disappearance in the previous week, including possible sightings, descriptions of cars seen in the area at the time, and clues as to persons-ofinterest.

Money trail aids worthy cause A MONEY trail event at Patterson River Secondary College in Seaford has helped students raise funds to buy books for underprivileged children in Somaliland and Cambodia.

We are talking big money, too: The students raised more than $1000 – with office staff needing several trips to take the heavy load to the bank, teacher Janet Mitchell said.

The event was supported by Buddhist monk The Venerable Terry who is collecting good quality, used textbooks, as well as fiction, for orphanages, schools and universities in the African and Asian countries.

Ms Mitchell said the school has been involved in the program for four years. “Exercise books are a luxury in both places and few kids get them, so we had a fundraiser at the school to raise money to buy exercise books to send over,” she said.

“The competition between years 7 and 9 form groups involved a silver coin challenge. The students had to collect five cent pieces and other silver coins and lay them out in a straight line in the basketball stadium. The longest line won.

“The winning form – 7E – had more than $200 in silver coins stretching 95 metres – a fantastic effort – and 9G were the next best with 67 metres.

“It was a close competition – but the real winners will be the kids in those countries who will receive an exercise book, pencil and eraser. This will allow them to erase the pencil marks and reuse the book when it is filled. Our kids were brilliant and extremely enthusiastic.”

Somaliland-Australian Friendship Foundation president Mohamed Hussein praised the donation as “very significant and deeply appreciated”.

“I have discussed with you the various and consistent challenges that our people regularly face back home, especially when it comes to dealing and struggling with education needs and other health related matters,” he said.

“The contribution that you have made towards this noble initiative will be immensely appreciated and will be provided to the desperately needy people of Somaliland, who are extremely in need of, and will forever cherish, this wonderful opportunity.

“The Somaliland schools and universities need more help than ever before, and any further assistance provided by your school or perhaps any other networks, will be deeply appreciated.”

Paris tragedy inspired art humour book IN January after the murders in Paris at the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, Mornington Peninsula publisher, author and artist Fran Henke dispelled her dismay and anger by creating a collage on the theme of the slogan that swept the world – “Je Suis Charlie” (I Am Charlie), including Aussie references.

“I’ve worked with cartoonists and satiric portraitists over more than 50 years of journalism and the tragedy hit me hard,” she said.

She donated her work, Je Suis Ahmed, to Bald Archy Prize organiser Peter Batey, who created the prize in 1994 to take the mickey out of pretentious portrait prizes such as the Archibald Prize.

As the reaction rolled on around the world – the most poignant cartoon coming from David Pope of the Canberra Times (“He drew first”) – Mrs Henke emailed Peter Batey suggesting they do a book celebrating Australia’s satiric portrait painters, the freedom in which they work, and his diverse career.

He agreed, saying it should be launched on 24 July with the announcement of the 2015 Bald Archy winner; it was put together in just five months.

In Yer Face – The Bald Archy Prize charts the growth of the prize from its start as a one-off celebration to now being Australia’s most popular touring art exhibition. It shows the significant role humour in art has played through history and in Australia since J F Archibald established The Bulletin in 1880.

A former arts journalist for the National Times and The Australian, Mrs Henke worked with Australia’s leading cartoonists, developing an appreciation for the nation’s “black

ist has won five times, three others have won twice – was a challenge,” Mrs Henke said.

“We found all but one, Peter ‘Wilko’ Wilkinson. We were particularly worried about an early winner, Alan McClure, who was in his 90s.

We discovered he had only recently retired as a cartoonist on the Cootamundra Herald and he has contacted. Finding my friend and 2005 winner Tony Sowersby of Seaford was not hard.

“I wanted to know who they were, what they did as ‘day jobs’. Wonderful responses and ‘selfie’ drawings started arriving.

“A tribute to Peter Batey was important. Peter with Barry Humphries was co-creator of Dame Edna Everage. Peter launched my first book in 1976, now 40 years on.”

The pair finished the book, sent it to the printer and arranged a launch in Sydney.

Mrs Henke headed out to Melbourne Airport but missed her flight – and the launch – but arrived in time for lunch. She is a polio survivor and didn’t tick the box requesting assistance at the airport for its daunting stairs.

and white” tradition, and interviewed artists such as Sidney Nolan, Brett Whitely and, in London, Elmyr de Hory the notorious forger.

As a theatre director, Mr Batey launched Mrs Henke’s first book in

1976 so they go back a long way, which informed her tribute to him in the book. He has written an hilarious account of how the prize came into being. There is also a rare interview with the Bald Archy’s judge, the

elegant and well-informed sulphurcrested cockatoo Maude.

The book includes all winners of the Bald Archy Prize over its 22 years.

Connal of Frankston, late of Malvern, who left Melbourne last Oct, with the 4th Light Horse Regt. 1st A.I.E.F. and was invalided home by the hospital ship “Kyarra” in July, after an operation for appendicitis, took his discharge on Monday last, and immediately enlisted. He goes into camp at Broadmeadows on Monday next. 27th inst. *** THE anniversary of the Frankston Christian Endeavor Society was held in the Methodist Church on Thursday evening last, when there was a good attendance, including visitors from kindred societies on the Peninsula.

Rev R. Jackson occupied the chair, and excellent addresses were delivered by Mr W. J. Northey and Rev. P. Parnaby. At the close if the proceedings the visitors were provided with refreshments in the schoolroom. *** THE news that Mr. A. H. Gregory, of Frankston, was suddenly taken ill at the end of last week was received with

sincere regret by his many friends.

As his condition did not improve, Dr Worniski was called in for consultation with Dr Maxwell, and his removal to Miss Cadle’s private hospital was determined upon on Wednesday morning.

During that day and Thursday his condition was very critical, but we are pleased to state that by the latest reports, the patient has very much improved, and his recovery is now a matter of time. *** THE following apology has been received from Sir John Madden by Dr. Plowman, honorary secretary to the recent fourth presentation to Frankston volunteers, in reply to an invitation to be present, under date September 11 :—” I am very sorry that it will not be possible for me to be present at the presentation ceremony at Frankston on the 20th inst. I shall be on my way to Shepparton on that evening to hold the Assize Court at that town.

It would have been a very real pleasure to have bidden good bye to our gallant Frankston soldiers and to have joined in the hearty cheer which their friends will raise in their honor. However, I wish them a great part in the Empire’s victory and a safe and happy return to their friends and homes.” *** THE commonwealth statistician, Mr G. H. Knibbs, has already ascertained that certain persons have not yet sent in personal cards, and in one case a material fact has been misstated. Until the alphabetical register has been

compiled, prosecutions can of course be undertaken only in cases coming specially under notice.

All persons who have either not sent in cards, or who having sent them in have made any misstatement, are advised to send in, at once, a properly filled in personal card with an explanation of the delay or of the error, as the case may be. Those who fail cannot be excused. Any amended return sent in should be distinctly marked “Amended Return.” *** THE list of killed and wounded of the Peninsula lads is increasing, week by week. Amongst the killed is Private W. Hartland, brother of Captain Hartland, who was killed a few weeks ago. Mr and Mrs Hartland have thus been bereaved of both their sons, and the sincerest sympathy of their many friends is extended to them.

Sergeant Arch Ashmore is also amongst the killed. He was a great favorite in Frankston, having been a regular visitor for years, and a prominent member of the football club.

News has also been received that Driver H. Dial, Corporal Cyril Richardson, Privates Vagg, (2nd occasion) and Ray Dawborn (2nd occasion) have been wounded, and Private Twyford, of Somerville, missing. *** WAR and Woman’s Dress. Has the war affected woman’s dress? This is a question that will interest all our women readers, and it will be fully answered in the pages of “Everylady’s Journal” for September. This is the

semi-annual fashion number, and contains over fifty new spring and summer pattern designs, exclusive of the four selected paper patterns which are given free with the magazine.

One noticeable effect of the war is that there has been an increased demand for up-to-date and reliable paper patterns. “Everylady’s Journal”—always a live and up to-date periodical—offers any of our readers, free of cost, a summer pattern catalogue of 250 designs. The coupon in September issue should be used to secure the catalogue.

While this care for fashions of the day is a particularly strong feature in “Everylady’s Journal” there are other conspicuous items. For instance, an expert in poultry tells how the world’s records in egg-laying were recently broken, and gives instructions so that the house holder may secure the same result.

Amongst the interviews is a capital talk with the Queen of England by Mary Roberts Rinehart, who is also the writer of the serial story “K.’ The practical is again uppermost in a beautifully illustrated article on the making of floor mats in rafia. Readers are reminded that the War Puzzle Competition, with £100 in cash and 121 other prizes, is still open, and may be entered at once. If any reader is unable to obtain “Everylady’s Journal” locally, she can secure it by post for 6 months by sending 3s in stamps or postal note to T. Shaw Fitchett, 376 Swanston St Melbourne. ***

THE social held on Friday evening last in aid of the Red Cross Fund was a decided success. The hall was again beautifully decorated by the committee, and was well filled with patrons.

Songs were rendered in fine style by Miss L. Conly, of Fairfield, and were very much appreciated by those present. Mr A. Diggerson provided tip-top music and dancing was kept going till 1.30 a.m. *** THE annual meeting of the Tyabb Cricket Club will be held on Thursday evening next. The meeting is an important one, as owing to the present unsettled state of affairs it is hardly known whether or not the cricket season will be carried on as usual. *** AT the monthly meeting of the Fruitgrowers’ Association held on Thursday last, Mr A E. Benton, ex-vice president of the Society, was made recipient of a very handsome presentation on the occasion of his marriage, in the shape of a silver and glass breakfast cruet and biscuit barrel. *** RECRUITS WANTED. Every man physically fit is wanted for enlistment. Age—18 to 45 years. Minimum height—5 feet 2 inches. Chest measurement—33 inches. Persons desiring to enlist should apply at the nearest Town Hall, Shire Hall, Drill Hall, or Recruiting Depot, where arrangements will be made for medical examination.

WHAT’S NEW...

Strength through community working together ST JOHN of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital (SJGFRH) believe that supporting local community through Social Outreach programs and sponsorships, is the way to really make a difference in our world today.

Their programs include focus on the following.  Youth homelessness is a critical social issue in Frankston and to help address this concern, the hospital, in conjunction with the Peninsula Community Ownership Foundation (PenCOF), fund the employment of a full time “Whitelion” Outreach Youth Worker to work with margin-

alised youth on a daily basis. Further support through collection of goods to assist homeless and disadvantaged youths that come into contact with the service is provided.  Support for the local homeless community through their support for the Frankston Churches Community Breakfast Program each month. Foodstuffs and volunteer assistance from their caregivers is provided and it is a great opportunity for the caregivers to better understand the challenges that many of those who live in our community encounter.  Material support through our

Christmas Hamper drive. This collection provides a range of goods, donated by our caregivers, patients and their families, to the St Vincent de Paul Society who organise hampers to local families. They commence their drive in November each year.  They are proud Platinum sponsors of the Frankston Dolphins Junior Football Club (FDJFC).

Recently, the FDJFC and SJGFRH worked together to collect donations of key items that Whitelion could

distribute to disadvantaged youths in the Frankston area. The clubs families and SJGFRH caregivers opened their hearts and donated generously (items included hygiene products, vouchers, backpacks and useful clothing). This was an amazing display of generosity and overwhelming support. The clubs donations were presented to Whitelion at the football clubs final “host” night.

St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital would like to

thank the Frankston Dolphins Junior Football Club families for continued support of their hospital and assisting them with helping to ease the journey of those in the community who meet challenges in their daily lives.

For more information on the programs or if you would like to donate any items, please contact Lisa Connell -Director of Mission or Michelle Kapnoullas -Marketing and Community Relations Manager on 9788 3333.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Apology to one angry dude (wherever he may be)

By Stuart McCullough I’M sorry. Truly. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that I’d be the source of such heart-felt angst and misery. It was not my intention. The mere knowledge that I have caused such gut-churning anguish is something over which I am truly remorseful and more than a little embarrassed.

It was never meant to turn out this way. I was simply driving along the river towards work. Then I saw you, helmet on, pedalling your heart out.

You were doing such a wonderful job.

Who could have known that soon you would be shaking your fist at the heavens because of me?

Let me say that in terms of provoking another person to the point they’re willing to shake a clenched fist: it’s been a while. Truth be told, I’m unaccustomed to provoking so fervent a reaction from pretty much anyone, with the possible exception of members of my immediate family. Beyond just an angry glance or raised eyebrow, you held your furious fist aloft. It is, perhaps, little comfort to learn that the whole catastrophe was an accident. I should have said as much at the time but feared stopping to explain might (of itself) be interpreted as an act of aggression.

In my defence, it had been raining.

For this, I cannot reasonably be held responsible. The heavens themselves conspired to create the perfect conditions for the profound misunderstanding that followed. Perhaps that’s why you shook your fist in the air – you weren’t angry with me at all but at the skies themselves for pouring forth their glorious bounty and ensuring an

ordinary road should be replete with hundreds of tiny reservoirs of water.

These pools of liquid are the inevitable result of rain. As I drove, I thought very little of them.

It is, I feel, at least partly your fault.

Your bike was not so much running along the edge of the road as riding right up the middle. This is in spite of the fact that there is a separate bike path just a couple of metres over. Regardless of your decision to shun per-

fectly good bicycle infrastructure the powers that be had seen fit to grant you, the fact that you had decided to hog most of the road wasn’t really a problem. There was nothing in the way of on-coming traffic and plenty of room to get around. As I always do, I made sure I left a wide berth to ensure that you would feel safe at all times.

Not only do I consider this appropriate but also an act of friendship towards a fellow citizen who has decided to do the planet and everyone on it a favour and forsake motorised transport in favour of a bike. Leaving an overly generous margin between our respective modes of transport is the least I can do. It was as I overtook that the unthinkable manifested itself in one supremely ugly second.

Let me say right now that you were doing an excellent job. Backside raised and pointed skywards, trouser hams pumping like pistons, face flushed with exertion; you steamed along the boulevard like a man possessed. As my car pulled up alongside, I could see the determined grimace on your face. I wanted to wave. Show you my support for your athletic endeavours. I wanted to do anything that would let you know that your supreme effort had been duly noted and, for what it was worth, there was at least one person on this big round earth that was impressed. Fact is, I was so busy being impressed that I failed to notice the large pool of water that had congregated on the roadway.

Without warning, my front left tyre sank down into a concealed pothole, displacing a large body of liquid and sending it in the form of a miniature

tidal wave over you. An instant earlier, you had been completely dry. Now you were entirely drenched. I had, it seems, quite literally poured a bucket over whatever hopes and aspirations you might have had to go about your morning whilst remaining relatively arid. It is little short of a miracle that you managed to remain upright under the circumstances.

Of course I was horrified. I had no intention whatsoever in giving some stranger a complete drenching. And I could not help but notice as I glanced up at my rear view mirror that you as my unwitting victim were not just wet, you were angry. Very, very angry.

You shouted. Your face, which had been ripe with exhaustion, was now molten with rage. You raised your fist high into the air and shook it with fury.

Railing against me and my potholesquashing, cyclist-soaking proclivities, you expressed your displeasure in the clearest terms possible. I simply want you to know this – message received, loud and clear.

I don’t know where you were heading that day. Maybe you were meeting some friends for coffee at a local café. They too will have ridden their bikes and would have been decked out in various forms of lycra. Doubtless, you would have regaled them with tales of an unthinking driver who cast water all over you. They will have been aghast before consoling you over a decaf latte and a muffin (possibly).

Perhaps you might be kind enough to let the gang know that I am truly sorry and that there is little risk of a repeat offence. Happy cycling. Yours truly… stuart@stuartmccullough.com

DEF LEPPARD SHAKE OFF THE HATERS

By Neil Walker

The haters gonna hate, hate, hate, hate, hate but Def Leppard are due more credit in rock and roll’s history books than critics generally give them. Taylor Swift certainly thinks so.

The biggest pop star in the world right now performed with Def Leppard in 2008 as part of a US series called Crossroads that paired modern musicians together with their idols from yesteryear.

Swift reckoned that singing the likes of the hit song Photograph with the band was “my childhood dream come true”.

“My mom was a huge fan of theirs when she was pregnant with me,” she said at the time.

“So growing up, the music that was playing in my house was Def Leppard. It was music that she liked that I could like too.”

Def Leppard sold more than 100 million albums in the 1980s and 1990s – mostly thanks to the Pyromania (1983), Hysteria (1987) and Adrenalize (1992) trio of albums and hits such as Pour Some Sugar On Me, Love Bites and Let’s Get Rocked - but there is a feeling the rockers, despite Swift’s praise, have been unfairly tarred with the same brush as certain flash-in-the-pan ‘hair metal’ bands of the era who quickly rose and fell just before grunge conquered the music world in the mid90s.

There have been tragedies for Def Leppard among the glory days along the way – guitarist Steve Clark died of a prescription drugs and alcohol overdose in 1991 and drummer Rick Allen lost an arm after a car crash on New Year’s Eve in 1984 – but the core of the band including Elliott, bass player Rick Savage, guitarist Phil Collen, drummer Allen and ‘newcomer’ Vivian Campbell, who joined in 1992 to succeed Clark as guitarist stand strong today.

MINT spoke to Def Leppard frontman Joe Elliott on the eve of the band’s latest Australian tour and asked whether he resented the band being (h)airbrushed from rock history by some sections of the music press, most notably the weekly UK mags such as NME. Elliott, on the road and calling from India-

napolis in the midst of a US tour of stadiums, sounded like he and his bandmates had the last laugh as he recalled the band’s critical reception in some quarters despite their global success.

“There’s an elitism within the media and from certain artists,” he said in a distinctive Sheffield born burr.

“We used to joke about it. We used to imagine some guy walking onto the open plan floor of Rolling Stone magazine’s office wearing a Def Leppard T-shirt and being asked ‘what the hell are you doing?’ while they’re all wearing their Loudon Wainwright, Lou Reed, REM, Springsteen T-shirts.

“We are one of those bands that certain parts of the media just love to tear to pieces because they see us as these dinosaurs.

“We never got the credit for rewiring the way rock and roll was recorded in the 80s. When we put out Pyromania and Hysteria people hadn’t put out records that sounded like that before, because the material wasn’t like Morrissey or Psychedelic Furs style.”

It’s part of what we do.

“There is a core element of certain songs you know that if you don’t play you won’t get out of the building alive. They’re the songs that put you in those buildings so you can’t deny them.”

Australian fans are in for something different from the current US tour though with the band releasing their first album of new material since 2008 in the form of a self-titled Def Leppard album next month. “‘This is a track from our new album’ are the most dreaded words a singer will ever say,” Elliott joked.

“Let’s not turn every act that goes out live into a nostalgia act.”

“There was times when we literally were outselling everybody on the planet,” he noted.

He assured old school Def Leppard fans that they will hear all of the band’s best-known songs though.

“Back in the day, standing toe-to-toe with everyone from Bono to Springsteen was great but we’re not exactly down in the bowling alleys now.

“When you’re massive with the public but not big with the press it really gets up their nose.

Unlike so many of their 80s and 90s peers, Def Leppard have also refused to go down the break up/reunion/repeat route to sell tickets for live gigs.

The band are still playing the big venues, a testament to their longevity with old and new fans alike, and Elliott also credited this with Def Leppard’s enthusiasm for still playing their biggest hits in the live arena.

“Any band that’s been around as long as we have – bands like The Who and The Rolling Stones – are going to play stuff people know.

“I’d rather play the [Glasgow] Barrowlands than work on a building site.”

The working class worth ethic saw Def Leppard push on and become one of the biggest bands on the planet at the height of their career in the 80s and 90s and Elliott looks back on it with some fondness but also thankfulness for the present.

“I don’t buy into that ‘these are the songs that made us popular but we’re not going to play them’.”

“That’s not coming from a sense of bitterness.

I couldn’t give a f*** what the press think.

The fact is we’ve got an audience and that’s what important.”

“We didn’t fear failure but maybe not being able to do it at any kind of level. None of us wanted to go back to the regular life,” he said.

“But also they’re the most important because as long as you’re saying it you’re still doing something current. You have to keep making new music whether the rest of the world think it’s important or not.

Elliott believes some in the music press can hold a grudge if a band becomes big without its backing or permission.

“People in the press wouldn’t admit to liking Meat Loaf in the press or Bon Jovi or Taylor Swift ... but these are the very artists who will sell stadiums out,” he said.

vaesque behaviour could be traced back to the bands roots in working class Sheffield.

The singer says the band members were “very aware of the opportunity” afforded them by their hard-working parents’ encouragement in allowing them to pursue their rock and roll dreams.

“Yeah, there are certain bands that do that. I mean, god bless ‘em but The Scorpions have been doing a farewell tour now for about six years, The Eagles have been doing one for about 20 and I think Cher’s being doing one since the 1980s,” Elliott said.

“As unsexy as it sounds, we get on really well.

There’s no agenda, there’s no big drama in the Def Leppard camp. We have our moments where we don’t see eye to eye on certain things but we’re man enough to stand up and talk about it, nip it in the bud before it becomes a volcanic eruption, and get on with it.”

This reluctance to engage in showbiz di-

“No-one even bothers looking at the charts anymore but we’re still playing to 20,000 people in Dallas, for example, so it’s not like we’re not still one of the biggest bands in the world it’s just we’re one of the biggest touring bands in the world, if you like.

“In many respects, it’s been and gone and come back and that’s because of the hard work we’ve put in and we do have a legacy and we do have a massive collection of hit singles and well-known songs.

“Our standing with the audience has never really dropped and our standing within the business is rising again.”

Def Leppard play Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne on Wednesday 18 November with guests Live and Electric Mary. See premier.ticketek.com. au online or call 13 28 49 for tickets including VIP tour packages and backstage passes to meet the band.

Jimmy Rees - A life worth giggling about

By Melissa McCullough TWENTY-eight-year-old jimmy rees has been lulling our children to sleep during the “goodnight hour” since 2009. Now it’s time for him to apply all of his techniques at home with new son, Lenny. Mornington Peninsula Kids sat down to chat with Jimmy about being a new dad and how a kid from Mt Eliza ended up becoming a superstar to pre-schoolers and parents alike.

“I was doing amateur theatre in Frankston and knew I just wanted to get into the industry at some point. I enjoy making people laugh and entertaining people. I don’t see myself as an actor per se. I’m good at playing a silly character like Jimmy Giggle.”

Jimmy hadn’t looked into getting an agent to organise auditions when then girlfriend, Tori, saw the advertisement for a national call in the paper. There were 5,500 entrants and this was Jimmy’s first audition.

He tells us, “I got the phone call with the offer for the role in new preschool show Giggle and Hoot while I was working at the local pub. I ran upstairs into the office to take the call.

The producer asked if I could sing and asked for a sample of my vocals on the spot.” As the front runner for the part, staff on the set started referring to the actor as Jimmy Giggle… and it stuck. He was casted in October and on air in December. “It was sort of like in a big whirlwind. There was quite a learning curve.” So off to Sydney Jimmy and Tori went. But the move didn’t last long. They returned to Melbourne after a few months and Jimmy commuted.

Little did he know how popular the lovable characters Giggle and Hoot would become. “My first realisation of how well it was going was when a little signing and meet and greet was organised at Eastland. I went out there in my pyjamas and there were literally hundreds of families lined up. It was a wow moment. OK – this is popular.”

After getting used to the routine of working Wednesday through Friday, Jimmy and Tori tried for a second time to move to Sydney. It didn’t last long. Tori fell pregnant and the now married couple thought they’d better come back down.

Right: Jimmy Giggle on set.

The Mornington Peninsula is definitely home for Jimmy Rees. He grew up in Mt Eliza and attended St Thomas Moore Primary School and then The Peninsula School. Tori taught at Benton’s Junior College for a year before moving to Sydney. She loved teaching, but for now, is relishing being a stay at home mum.

Fatherhood It was a crazy time in the lead up to Baby Rees’ arrival on April 7th. The Giggle and Hoot tour was beginning in April and little Lenny was due to arrive in late April.

They had to wait 12 weeks to announce the birth of baby Lenny to due to agreements with a magazine and Jimmy’s fans were growing quite concerned. “Even if I mentioned we

had a tour coming up people would respond with, ‘when’s the baby coming, is everything ok?’”

Once they were able to officially announce the arrival of Lenny they received great support from plenty of social media groups such as Mornington Peninsula Kids that were happy to share the photos and good news.

Jimmy remembers the birth going well. Tori and Lenny were safe and happy and then all of a sudden thought, “I’m a dad! I’ve got to keep him alive!”

While mum does take care of most of what Lenny needs Jimmy is the entertainer. He’s happy to pitch in with feedings and whatever else he can do whenever he can.

“It’s so amazing. He’s only four

The family is all set up in their home base down here. Travelling up and back three days a week to work usually, but sometimes getting an extra break here and there while other times, especially when touring, there’s a bit more hands on time.

On the topic of sleeping, Jimmy tells us that Lenny has been a dreamboat from pretty much as soon as they got home from the hospital. (Jealous much?) He’s now practically sleeping all the way through; waking up once around midnight for a feed and then back to sleep until around seven. His day sleeps aren’t that great, but he’s coming along.

When asked about the all important support system Jimmy tells us, “All of our families live around here within a few postcodes. That’s another reason we came back from Sydney, at least for our first. We still

Rosebud win the title NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt ROSEBUD came from 14 points down early in the last quarter to win the 2015 Nepean League premiership by 20 points on Saturday.

After the Eagles scooted away to their biggest lead of the afternoon, care of a Justin Allsop snap in the opening five minutes of the last quarter, Rosebud then dominated the next 30 minutes of the match to run out 13.14 (92) to 10.12 (72) winners.

In a see-sawing battle that saw momentum swing many times during the afternoon, Rosebud refused to be beaten in the final term and its leaders stood up.

While the Eagles appeared to be trying to shut the game down after skipping to the 14 point lead, the Buds were looking at ways to score goals and get themselves back into the match.

Skipper Ryan Spooner led the charge. He willed his side across the line and brought every team mate along with him.

The premiers had a whopping 23 inside 50 metre entries in the last quarter, compared to just five for the Eagles. Rosebud completely dominated.

Jason Bristow, who was the best player on the ground with 34 possessions, including 11 in the last quarter, fittingly kicked the sealer with his first goal of the match.

PAGE 32

Keegan Downie was absolutely superb and just shaded for best on ground honours. The 19-year-old was a wonderful target in attack, booting three goals and also spent some time in defence in the second quarter when Somerville got on top.

Rosebud started in sensational fashion, working its way back into the contest after Somerville dominated the first 10 minutes and booted the opening two goals of the game.

Rosebud booted six of the next seven goals in the opening quarter to waltz into the quarter time huddle with a 19 point lead. Rob Forrest was magnificent early, having seven first quarter possessions and booting two goals.

Greg Bentley, who finished with 18 touches, had six of those in the first quarter and Bristow also had eight possessions in the opening stanza.

However, Somerville gained the ascendancy in the following two quarters and kicked six of the next eight goals of the match to lead by eight points at the last change.

Josh Westerman shut down Forrest.

Tommy Shaw was working tirelessly up and back from the forward half of the ground. Luke Rowe started to clunk a few marks and hit the scoreboard. Todd Farrelly continued his domination of Tom Baker (two goals). Ben Sedewick was making life very difficult for Lachy Armstrong.

Justin Farrelly started to break even

Frankston Times 21 September 2015

with Ben Dwyer in the ruck after being beaten early and Scott Simpson asserted his authority with some very heavy, bone-crunching tackles.

With the likes of Jedd Sutton, Justin Allsop, Leigh Stewart and Cal Dixon winning plenty of the footy, the Eagles looked the hot tip leading into the last quarter.

It certainly looked even better for them in the last when Allsop got on the end of a ball inside 50 and nailed it from 30 metres.

At that stage, the scoreboard read Somerville 10.10 (70) to Rosebud 8.8 (56).

That’s where the celebrations ended for the Eagles’ players and supporters.

While the Eagles went into protection mode to maintain the lead, Rosebud came charging.

Dwyer again started to jump higher and stronger in the ruck. Bentley, Forrest, Brad McDonald, Rhys Bancroft and Bristow started to force their way forward of centre through sheer will and strength and the back half, led by the dashing and powerful Nick Boswell, began to repel all Somerville attacks.

Matt Baker, Jack Jarman, Chris Zurek and Daniel Wilson, who collectively worked tirelessly all day down back, also grew a leg and made it difficult for their opponents.

Seb Kremich had a fantastic battle with Billy Rolfe all afternoon and broke even in the end after Rolfe had

a bit of it early.

At the other end of the ground, the likes of Tom Stoffells and Glen Peterson started to get busy when the ball went inside and Downie was going for everything in the air, either bringing it to ground for his smalls or marking it.

Dale Stephens had an impact on the match on a number of occasions, utilising his blistering pace, while Brenton Davidge provided sensational support in the ruck for Dwyer.

The Buds certainly lost nothing when Davidge went into the middle.

While the likes of Cade Williams and Kurtis Corrin didn’t have big numbers, their influence when required supported this Rosebud culture of “team first”.

Somerville played into Rosebud’s hands when the game was there to be won. It got in front in the second and third quarter because it took the game on. The Eagles took risks, moved the ball quickly and gave their forwards an opportunity.

However, when they got out to 14 points, they went defensive, slowed the game down, didn’t run and carry, didn’t take risks and did nothing to change the momentum.

Rosebud has proven that they are the best in the business at these tactics. It’s the way they like the game to be played. The result was 11 scoring shots to three in the final term.

Rosebud deserved to be premiers.

They were the minor premier and went straight into the grand final after a second semi-final win.

The entire club deserves to be congratulated. Following the Nick Jewell resignation, the club could have gone off the rails.

While it’s certainly been tough from an off-field perspective, the club has remained vigilant. The on field team has certainly not buckled at any point.

There is only one reward for hard work in footy clubs and that is premierships.

In 2015, Rosebud Football Club are the deserved premiers.

In the reserves, Devon Meadows won its first ever club premiership with a 13.14 (92) to 8.7 (55) victory over Somerville.

Somerville booted the first five goals of the game before the Meadows responded with 13 of the next 16 majors.

Forty-one-year-old club legend Craig Hunter booted three goals while 19-year-old Luke Duhig was judged best afield.

In the Under 19s, Dromana continued its fairytale finals run, beating Rosebud 15.11 (101) to 9.12 (66).

Stars Sam Fowler, Billy Quigley and Sam Guerts dominated for the Tigers while Ethan Johnstone was judged best afield.

It was Rosebud’s second loss in two seasons.

Dogs maul Redlegs to advance to grand final PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt MORNINGTON will play Frankston YCW in the 2015 Peninsula Division grand final for the second year in a row after smashing old foes Mt Eliza by 48 points on Sunday.

The Doggies were simply too committed for the Redlegs, who looked as though they would have preferred to be somewhere else other than Kars St in a Preliminary Final.

Mt Eliza were pathetic and gave up without a whimper. If it had not been for Sam Gill, Darren Booth, Karl Lombardozzi, Matt Little, Jimmy Clayton and James Anwyl, they would have been belted by far more than eight goals.

Mornington came out with intent and a desire to play in a grand final. You could have been forgiven for thinking Mt Eliza didn’t care if they got there. The Redlegs kicked three goals in the first half and just two in the second. Mt Eliza averaged 17 goals a game in 2015.

The final score was 13.7 (85) to 5.7 (37).

When you have a full forward like Justin Van Unen, who has kicked more than 100 goals in a season, it’s difficult to understand why he started on a wing. If it was to shake Adam Symes as an opponent, it was naïve by the Mt Eliza brainstrust. Symes is comfortable wherever he plays and was more than happy to stand with Van Unen on the wing. He was far too good for him wherever he played.

James Cameron set the game up for the Doggies with six possessions in the first quarter and 21 for the match. He also booted two goals.

Joel Miller and Ben Wells (two goals) didn’t get a possesion in the first quarter but dominated after that, while Ben Clements was busy all afternoon with three goals.

Jackson Calder just works so hard and wills himself to contests. This attitude is usually rewarded with opportunity and he finished with four goals.

Danny Nolan and Emilio Bitters were back in the side and got better and better as the game went on. Coach Chris Holcombe said before the game that he expected Warwick Miller to play in the grand final.

Michael Gay was dominant in the ruck while Dale Nolan was comfortably the second best player on the ground, playing as a defender. He would have had more than a dozen marks.

While Symes carved up Van Unen, Ryan Smith and Jai Haddock had the ball on a string from half back, while Ryan O’Dell, Josh Halsall and Barry Smeeton did a lot of the grunt work.

Yet again, it wasn’t the prettiest of games, however the Doggies were the side that wanted to win.

If you were a Mt Eliza supporter, you would have left the ground very disappointed.

Obviously, the Doggies’ fans loved it and they are into yet another Grand Final.

Every dog has its day: Mornington are heading to the Peninsula League grand final after slamming Mt Eliza. Picture: Gary Bradshaw

Jewell to coach Sorrento in 2016

By Toe Punt The worst kept secret in local footy can be revealed – Nick Jewell will coach Sorrento next season.

The 2015 premiership coach resigned his post at Rosebud after round six when he was offered the job at Sorrento.

For more than half of the 2015 season, Nick Jewell has been the coach of Sorrento for 2016.

Ideally, according to Jewell, he would have liked to have continued to build on the success that he and the Rosebud Football Club had built over the past three years during his time at the club.

However, the Buds would not give him the job after six rounds of the 2015 season and he exercised his

right to accept another offer that was on the table.

It is believed Jewell was offered the Sorrento job just one year after being at Rosebud, however, he declined the opportunity because he felt there was great opportunity with the Buds.

His father, former Richmond Premiership coach Tony Jewell, is a member at Sorrento, Nick played at the club and plays cricket at the club.

Jewell makes no secret of the fact that it was always a dream to coach Sorrento, however made it clear Rosebud were always his first priority.

Despite winning the 2015 premiership and the reserves and Under 19s going deep into the finals, only one formal application has been made for

Sudoku and crossword solutions

the senior coaching position.

Without question, it is the plum job in the entire MPNFL. Footy Show goes to Brewery The last RPP FM Footy Show of the year will be held at Mornington Peninsula Brewery from 9-10am this Saturday, September 26.

It would be sensational to have as many people there as possible to celebrate what has been another awesome year of local footy.

Get down for a free breakfast and try all the local beers on tap – there will be free tastings all morning.

Mornington Peninsula Brewery is located at 72 Watt Rd, Mornington.

Stratton at Crib Point

Like Jewell at Sorrento, it is believed Taylor Stratton has been the new coach of Crib Point since at least round 15 of this season.

While Crib Point and Stratton refuse to admit that he has the job, we can categorically tell you that the former team of the year midfielder has the top job.

And it is believed that Stratton approached the Magpies for the job, not the other way around.

It is alleged that Stratton was on a recruiting drive within the Hastings group well before the season finished.

We can also tell you that Hastings powerbrokers have made it very clear to Stratton to stop the phone calls to Hastings players.

It is believed his brother Kain

will go with him to Crib Point, with at least one other Hastings player, although no one is sure who that is.

Pearcedale lands big fish Pearcedale announced on Saturday that former Peninsula League medallist, three time premiership player and Seaford star Chris Irving has signed as assistant coach.

Jamie Merchan will continue to be the head coach, however, Irving comes into the fold to support.

Pat Heijden, Ben Mitchell and Dylan Hoare will concentrate on their footy.

Irving is not expected to play at all, however, the Panthers are hopeful of announcing some big signings in the coming weeks.
