‘Sky Rail’ a future fight

Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au SOME Frankston councillors fear being railroaded into accepting an “intrusive” elevated rail line from Mordialloc to Frankston as part of the state government’s plan to remove level crossings from the Frankston line but the majority of their colleagues feel it is too soon to worry about a so-called Sky Rail plan. The Labor state government has committed to separate rail and road at eleven locations along the Frankston line including rail crossings at Carrum’s Eel Race Rd, Seaford’s Seaford Rd and Frankston’s Skye Rd/Overton Rd intersections. A motion by Cr Glenn Aitken to have council call a meeting with the Level Crossing Authority to “further discuss the elevation of the railway lines and other options to facilitate the removal of level crossings” was defeated five-two at this month’s meeting amid much debate about how an elevated rail line would affect neighbourhoods along the Frankston line. “People will lose privacy because they will have commuters looking down into their yards. It will be visually intrusive,” Cr Aitken said. “In my opinion it will increase the ability of that noise to travel a far greater distance and impact on people far more greatly.” Cr Darrel Taylor said communities along the Cranbourne-Pakenham line were presented with one option “and that was Sky Rail”. “It wasn’t community consultation, it was a marketing job. It was rammed down their throat,” he said. “This will divide communities and create noise and visual intrusiveness.”

Cr Taylor believed property prices will drop due to the loss of bay views. “Worst of all it will create communities who come ‘from the wrong side of the tracks’ when this is built,” he said. Crs Colin Hampton, Sandra Mayer and mayor Cr James Dooley argued it was too soon to be meeting with the Labor state government to discuss elevated rail as an option since no formal plans have been publicly released. “I think it’s a little bit premature, you could call it a kneejerk reaction. We haven’t had an uproar from our community,” Cr Mayer said. She believed it more appropriate to discuss options with the government at this stage. “At the moment there’s no massive community hysteria in our local community about this so it just feels like it’s a little bit premature.” Cr Dooley noted there are no details of any so-called Sky Rail plan. “I haven’t seen any details. I am voting on something I don’t even have any details of,” he said. Cr Taylor warned elevated rail “will be an absolute bloody eyesore and we will be regretting this in 20 years’ time.” “This council needs to take a stand, especially for the communities along Seaford and Carrum, and needs to say to the government that it’s unacceptable,” he said. “This is not what they took to the election – they never said they were going to do Sky Rail at the election. They said they’re going to do grade separations and now say they are going to do the cheapest option.” Crs Taylor and Aitken voted to discuss the prospect of elevated rail with the government. Crs Mayer, Hampton, Michael O’Reilly and Rebekah Spelman voted against the mooted meeting at this time.

Homes are an independent move Still a lot of love for ‘I Love Frankston’ A NEW housing development in Joy St has brought some much-needed happiness to eight seriously injured people thanks to a program aimed at helping crash survivors. The Transport Accident Commission secured eight units in Frankston as the third such development as part of the Residential Independence Pty Ltd project. Finance Minister Robin Scott and Frankston Labor MP Paul Edbrooke visited the units last Wednesday for the official opening. “We are addressing the statewide shortage of accommodation for severely injured Victorians by providing housing that allows people to regain independence in their lives,” Mr Scott said. “Now, the likes of Amanda Worswick, who works and volunteers locally, will live closer to her job and have the support she needs to live as independently as possible.” Mr Edbrooke welcomed the arrival of the RIPL homes in Frankston. “Thanks to RIPL housing opened in Abbotsford, Lilydale, now Frankston and soon Glenroy, more than 20 Victorians will be living independently when they otherwise wouldn’t have,” he said. About 5000 Victorians are seriously injured in crashes each year, 90 of whom suffer quadriplegia or severe acquired brain injuries. The $30 million RIPL program recognises that being dependent on others for simple, everyday tasks is a major barrier to regaining quality of life following a debilitating injury. Residents now share an innovative model of support, including an integrated home automation system allowing them to communicate with support staff and use a smart phone or tablet to control features such as lighting, blinds, windows and doors. The Frankston site is the third RIPL accommodation to be opened and the biggest yet, with all eight Frankston RIPL residents to be settled in their new homes by the end of March.

THERE is good news for all those who love the ‘I Love Frankston’ slogan. The phrase and its accompanying heart shaped logo is not being dropped despite being succeeded by a ‘Enjoy Every Moment’ tourism campaign for the Frankston area. Councillors at this month’s public council meeting unanimously back the continuation of the ‘I Love Frankston’ campaign alongside the new ‘Enjoy Every Moment’ marketing push, noting the ‘I Love Frankston’ slogan remains close to residents’ hearts. “I think the ‘I Love Frankston’ campaign has been very strongly endorsed by the Frankston community,” Cr Glenn Aitken said. “It is well recognised and has been instrumental in helping change the public perception of Frankston and it continues to do that. If it were otherwise, there would be no point in retaining it.” Frankston Council still has the trademark for the ‘I Love Frankston’ slogan so the message will continue to be spread and the black background stickers will now come in various shades of colour. “The black background is pretty boring and old hat. We want to be vibrant and modern,” Cr Darrel Taylor. The ‘I Love Frankston’ slogan was launched “when community pride

was low and it was felt that a localised campaign would give residents something tangible with which they could showcase their love of their hometown and refute outside criticism”, according to a council report lodged at February’s council meeting. The ‘Enjoy Every Moment’ campaign promotes Frankston as a tourism and shopping destination to visitors. “We’re selling ourselves to other people. ‘I Love Frankston’ sells Frankston to people who are already in love with Frankston,” Mayor Cr James Dooley said. “They’re expressing their fondness for the place. The ‘Enjoy Every Moment’ campaign is about selling us to the wider community.” The council report stated the ‘I Love Frankston’ slogan and stickers are still popular with younger people, community groups and schools.

“Clean Up Australia Day is a great event that gives us all a great excuse to meet, roll up our sleeves and get involved in clean-up activities across the city.” “Whether you’re a business, a school or a community group, you’re encouraged to register to run a collection site as part in this event. And if you just want to lend a hand, feel free to join in with a group who have already signed up their site, such as the Kananook Creek Association.” See cleanupaustraliaday.org.au or call 1800 282 329 for further information.

FANTASTIC DEALS ON ALL ROLLER BLINDS

Quality Basswood Shutters at unbeatable prices Aftermath: Police inspect the stolen Holden Statesman after the dramatic arrests. The car was wedged between a tree and a brick fence. Picture: Gary Sissons

Spikes halt ‘hooning’ in stolen car POLICE reportedly used spike strips in a dramatic stolen-car intercept in Chestfield Ct, Frankston, Thursday night. They had earlier followed the Holden Statesmen in the Lynbrook and Lyndhurst areas but could not overtly chase it due to non-pursuit rules. It was then seen in Cranbourne. The police helicopter followed the car to Frankston where it was seen hooning in a shopping centre car park. Police closed off Chestfield Court, near Frank St, with the spike strips, and called in the dog squad to track down one of the two offenders who had jumped a fence and had an altercation with a

resident, according to a tow truck driver. The other man tried to turn the car around in the narrow court but mounted the footpath and came to rest, wedged between a nature strip tree and a low brick wall, which was partly demolished. Police moved in to check the car thoroughly and take some items away. Acting Sergeant Dave Collins, of Carrum Downs Traffic Unit, said the men, 22 and 25, of Carrum Downs, had been charged with theft of a motor car and other related charges and bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on a date to be fixed.

Destroy the joint: The Jadig Group decided to demolish The Ambassador Hotel function centre before putting the site back on the market for sale. Picture: Gary Sissons

Ambassador up for grabs again Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE Ambassador Hotel function centre is being demolished but the site is back on the market after a sale at auction late last year fell through. Winning bidder Harry Matsoukas said he was â&#x20AC;&#x153;not involved with that any moreâ&#x20AC;? when contacted by The Times last month. Lender the Jadig Group repossessed the property at 325 Nepean Highway late last year after previous owner Joanna Kordos, who had planned to build 37 apartments at the site, did not make loan payments. Jadig Group managing director Jack Gringlas said the company had decided to demolish the function centre since Frankston Council had grown increasingly frustrated with repeated failures by Ms Kordos to tear down the building, re-

garded as an eyesore and magnet for drug users. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I took the view that if we have to put it back on the market itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be much more saleable as a vacant block,â&#x20AC;? Mr Gringlas said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite a complex demolition because of the integration with other buildings. I think a number of potential purchasers were worried about actually doing that job so we formed the view we would get a price that was sufficiently better than the old price because anyone buying it would have had to demolish it anyway.â&#x20AC;? Mr Gringlas said the Jadig Group is in negotiation with several potential buyers and are looking for about $2.5 million to sell the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re happy to sell it subject to the demolition â&#x20AC;Ś otherwise weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll put it on the market again once the demolition is completed.â&#x20AC;? The selling agent is Max Baude of KBL Commercial.

I recently had the traumatic experience of my daughter having a seizure and requiring treatment at Frankston Hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emergency department. The initial reaction was to ring 000. The receptionist could not have been more helpful, giving advice and waiting on the open line in case I needed more assistance until the ambulance arrived. The paramedics were highly professional, giving us advice and assurance and then transported our daughter to the emergency department. Despite it being the busy season, we were quickly admitted and had the relevant tests carried out. Every part of the procedure carried out by the doctor, the nurse and other hospital staff was smooth, efficient and professional. Special thanks however must go to the volunteer women who could only be described as angels, taking the initiative to assist in any way they could, be it reassurance, a cup of tea and sandwiches, a comfort teddy bear for my daughter or even a cool cloth for her forehead or an extra blanket to keep her warm. What could have been a traumatic event was made into a situation that we could cope with. They closed the gap between the highly professional hospital staff and a traumatised parent who was in an unfamiliar situation and completely out of his comfort zone. Nobody looks forward to a visit to emergency but full credit must be given to all the staff and especially the volunteer women who help us in such situations.

The Empire ‘gives back’ THE bad guys were the good guys on Saturday when Stormtroopers from the Star Wars movies visited children at Frankston Hospital. The representatives of The Empire turned from the Dark Side of The Force to show their good side by handing out free Star Wars books to patients on the children’s ward. Imperial Stormtroopers from the 501st Legion, a worldwide group of Star Wars fans who make and wear costumes from the movies, regularly attend events to raise money for charity or entertain children in hospitals. Australian Stormtrooper Mark Marcus, of Cranbourne South, says he decided to enlist in the 501st Legion when he saw the troops in costume at a fans convention about five years ago and the local Knight Force Squad has about 55 active members at present who source and build costumes. He has a Stormtrooper and Royal Guard costume. The Royal Guards, dressed in red, flanked The Emperor in Episode III: Return of the Jedi. It costs about $1500 to $5000 to make a costume depending on the character depicted. The 501st Legion costumes must be “screen accurate” and usually take two to three months to build. “I saw a documentary called Heart of The Empire about the 501st Legion and in that they interviewed people who’d made suits and I thought I’d like to do something for charity and give something back,” Mr Marcus said. “If I get to be a Stormtrooper and do it then that’s ticking all the boxes.” He says there are groups who dress

hospital can be a scary experience for children, they are in a strange place and they don’t feel well,” Dr McMahon said. “We try our absolute best to make their experience as happy as it can be using play therapy and ensuring the ward doesn’t look too clinical, but having a special treat like this can help dramatically. “It’s not just the kids who are excited about the visit – we have a few staff who are diehard Star Wars fans and I think they were actually even more excited about meeting the Stormtroopers than the kids.” See 501st.com for further information about the Star Wars fans ongoing charity work.

as Jedi to represent the light side of The Force at charity events but Mr Marcus reckons the lure of the Dark Side is powerful thanks to the comparative “coolness of the costumes” in The Empire. He says the Legion is always keen to hear from Star Wars fans who want to join up. “When you’ve got kids who are doing it tough and they’re so excited to see you, that’s great.” Peninsula Health clinical director of paediatrics Dr Kathy McMahon said “having real life Stormtroopers on the ward is be a lovely distraction for the kids” at Frankston Hospital. “There are countless clinical studies that prove children will recover faster when they are happy.

Jarrod said he â&#x20AC;&#x153;couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe how much [the video] had gone offâ&#x20AC;? on social media, adding that Aaron was at first â&#x20AC;&#x153;embarrassedâ&#x20AC;? by the episode. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find it too funny at the time but looking back it was hilarious.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been getting out there and having a bit of fun â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially with the new barbecue,â&#x20AC;? Ms Dobler said.

Crash... and a video star is born A HUMBLE game of backyard cricket became one of the biggest attractions on social media during the Big Bash finals. Frankston man Jarrod Dobler and his mates Aaron Tregaskis, Zac Nanos, Alex Chisholm, and Dylan Gregson, were filming their friendly clash, as you do these days, when Aaron raced up the pitch for a quick single â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and charged straight through a closed gate. It was hilarious for the onlookers but not so for Aaron who sustained cuts to his legs and shoulder and chipped a cheekbone when he face planted into the side of the house. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was pretty lucky when he fell down the step as weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got lots of excess bricks and also that he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hit the top of the gate,â&#x20AC;? Jarrodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mum Sharon Dobler said. Jarrod entered the clip on Facebook and Channel 10â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Backyard Legends segment for a laugh and it went viralâ&#x20AC;Ś

Pledge of faith to country and religion CHILDREN brought up within the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community are being taught to be loyal to Australia. “We will prove it with our actions and deeds that our youth are the best citizens of Australia and they will be well educated,” Inamul Haq Kauser said when speaking at an Australia Day dinner. Guests at the dinner Sunday 31 January for 300 at the Baitu-us-Salam (House of Peace) Mosque, Langwarrin, included members of parliament, councillors and police. Imam Kauser, national president of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, gave assurances that the children of Ahmadi Muslims “will be loyal to this country”. The imam told diners that Ahmadis were persecuted throughout the world, particularly in Pakistan, and were grateful to have been allowed to settle in Australia. He described houses and shops belonging to Ahmadi Muslims in other countries being “robbed and reduced to rubble”. Ahmadi mosques were ordered shut by local imams and authorities. “Hundreds of Ahmadi Muslims have been killed merely for worshiping Allah or God,” Imam Kauser said. “Australia is such a great country, who has given shelter to us, who has shared our pain and suffering. We are very thankful to this country. I’ve no wordings how to convey that feelings which my community has,” Imam Kauser said. “We pledge that we’ll always be loyal to Australia. We pledge that we will always be peaceful, loving and

law-abiding citizens of this country. We remember very well the sayings of the Holy Prophet Muhammad: The Love of your country is a part of your faith. With this commandment, we pledge our loyalty to Australia, to its people and its government.” Imam Kauser said Australia Day represented “a day of freedom”. “The announcement to the whole world that Australia is a free country and those who come and be Australians, they enjoy the freedom wherever they go,” he said.

“It is a day of celebrating peace for the victims ignored and suffered. This is like a shelter for them. It is like a homeland for them.” The event also included the raising of the Australia and Victorian flags, a recitation from the Koran and Ahmadi children singing the national anthem, Advance Australia Fair. South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Inga Peulich said Ahmadiyya Muslims had done “a wonderful job … demystifying Islam and promoting interfaith dialogue and friendship”.

Blip in Bauer’s preselection bid Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au DUNKLEY preselection hopeful Donna Bauer has fallen foul of Liberal Party guidelines in her bid to win the party’s nomination as its candidate at the next federal election. The former Carrum state MP distributed leaflets last month to party members touting her credentials as the potential candidate for the seat of Dunkley before nominations closed and a candidate list was formalised by the Liberal Party. The early circulation of the leaflet to party preselectors before the candidate list was finalised is a breach of Liberal Party guidelines. Ms Bauer said she was unable to comment due to party rules forbidding candidates from publicly commenting on preselection matters but Victorian Liberal Party state director Simon Frost confirmed the breach of party guidelines and said as a result Ms Bauer had agreed

to only distribute one more piece of preselection campaign material to preselectors. Nomination rivals will be able to distribute up to three pieces in total compared to Ms Bauer’s two. “It has been brought to the attention of the Secretariat that there was a breach in the preselection guidelines by Ms Bauer, which she acknowledges,” Mr Frost said. “In keeping with the spirit of the guidelines and fairness to other nominees Ms Bauer has been penalised as per party rules.” Since Ms Bauer has breached guidelines, not party rules, there is no suggestion that she will face further sanctions although The News understands the guidelines breach will be highlighted to preselectors. The party’s candidate will be decided later this month. Kingston councillor Paul Peulich, the son of Liberal state Upper House MP for the South Eastern Metropolitan Region Inga Peulich, and former Liberal Isaacs

candidate Peter Angelico are among candidates to have put themselves forward as potential Liberal candidates for Dunkley. Mr Angelico withdrew as the Liberal candidate for Isaacs before the 2010 federal election after an industrial accident at his Dandenong steel business crushed the tips of three fingers on a teenage worker’s hand. The seat of Dunkley will be vacated by former small business minister Bruce Billson at the next federal election, to be held this year, due to his exit from politics after his demotion from cabinet late last year by incoming Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull. The Dunkley electorate includes the suburbs Frankston, Langwarrin, Mt Eliza, Mornington, Seaford and Skye. Labor has chosen lawyer Peta Murphy to contest Dunkley. Mr Billson held the seat for 20 years but Labor strategists have Dunkley in their sights as a potential ‘gain’ as an often marginal seat.

Boxing a way to peace, happiness Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au TO some, boxing may seem a strange road to travel in search of peace. But that is exactly the destination where the lessons in life handed out by boxing trainer Ron Smith can lead. The Mt Eliza-based former professional boxer admits to making mistakes while growing up, but says he learned from those to be a better man. Now 71, Smith is an advocate for peace, harmony and self-respect; attributes he passes on to people of all ages attending the Mt Eliza Boxing Centre he runs with his wife Sharyn. The philosophies espoused by Smith resonated so much with Jack Ahern that they are now neatly compressed into a biographic documentary. Ahern, 18, is a year 12 student at Mt Eliza Secondary College who last year took on accelerated media studies which called for him to produce a short video. It didn’t take him long to realise the potential screen presence of the man who had been teaching him boxing for the previous couple of years. In that time Smith had become “a

second father figure” helping Ahern through some personal issues that “motivated me to be fit and healthy not just in the body but in the mind as well”. “I chose Ron as my subject because I wanted to make my first short film an inspirational story that the audience would find intriguing and that they would be proud of one of their local residents,” Ahern now says of The Boxer, a film about the life and philosophy of personal trainer and former professional boxer, Ron Smith. “With all the violence I hear about in the news I wanted to show young people that it's not the boxing that makes the man, but the man that makes the boxer,” Ahern says, quoting one of Smith’s axioms. “I also wanted to expose the life of Ron, as little is known about this local hero and all the work he has done to change the lives of young individuals and put them back on the right path after suffering from issues such as drugs, alcohol, weight and mental health problems.” Smith, a veteran of 108 competition fights and a contemporary of Johnny Famechon, regularly helps the former world champion try to overcome the debilitating effects of being hit by a car 24 years ago.

Using a Nikon D3100 DSLR camera complete with sliders, stabilisers, tripods and external microphones, Ahern spent much of last year producing, filming and editing The Boxer, which overlays an interview with Smith with shots of gym workouts, Smith at home exercising, meditating at the beach and Smith and Famechon. Ahern acknowledges the “outstanding” support and advice of his media teacher Arturo Tallarida and says he had to look no further than fellow student Jordan Finlay for creating his soundtrack. “For the original music, A long journey ahead of us, I explained to Jordan what I was after and he came up with an amazing piece,” Ahern says. “I spent many, many hours editing the film and I was really pleased with the end result. I have had quite a lot of positive feedback which has been great.” Among the feedback was a commission from a Mt Eliza business for a promotional video, which is now nearing completion. One of the college’s four captains this year, Ahern would like a career in filming. “I'm attracted to many subjects that I would like to film in the future, I really like the idea of exposing local

heroes and telling stories about the Mornington Peninsula for which there are so many stories to tell,” he says. “I would also like to make some underwater and surfing films as the peninsula has some really interesting marine life and outstanding scenery.” And university? Maybe. “I have learnt so much from making the film about Ron. Not only about how I can improve my techniques but also how much I have been motivated and inspired by my

second father who has taught me so much more then boxing, school, fitness, relationships and that the most important thing in life is to be happy and to live healthy.” But the final words, as in the film, should belong to Smith, the man who says boxing opened many doors in his life: “There’s far too much aggression in the world today. You need to respect yourself and others.” View The Boxer at YouTube. Search for ‘The Boxer Ron Smith’.

His baby: above, Duncan Andrews hams it up on an unfinished Cape Wickham Links, King Island, seaside green; left, Pat Hura smooths things out and, right, course architect: Darius Oliver.

Local know-how on course for world-class edge Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au A GOLF course designed and developed by experts from the Mornington Peninsula has been ranked 24th best in the world – and it has been open just two months. The Cape Wickham Links course on King Island was given the honour by Golf Digest magazine from 32,000 courses world-wide. The Digest is regarded as the world’s most widelyread golf publication, with monthly exposure to 5.5 million readers. It produces its World’s 100 Greatest Golf Course rankings every two years. The links course was developed by Duncan Andrews, of Flinders, owner of The Dunes Golf Links, Rye, and was co-designed by Darius Oliver, of Mornington and American Mike DeVries.

The construction crew included Mark McIntosh, of Rye, irrigation design and installation; Geoff Baker, Mornington, irrigation installation; Programmed Turnpoint’ s Andrew Purchase, St Andrews Beach, project manager; Lindsay Richter, Dromana, main shaper, who built the greens, bunkers and tees; Glen Peck, Pearcedale, shaper; Clint Jensen, Rosebud, excavator operator; Stuart Purchase, Mt Martha, seeding and construction; and Pat Hura, St Andrews Beach, general construction. “It would be great for the work these guys did building one of the world’s best golf courses to be recognised,” Mr Oliver said. “They did an incredible job.” Golf Digest described the Cape Wickham course as one of the “hottest new layouts on the globe”. Editor Ron Whitten described the Cape Wickham

layout as “heart-pounding, starting along rocks and crashing surf, moving inland but not out of the wind, returning to ocean edge at the downhill 10th, pitch-shot 11th and drivable par-4 12th, then wandering into dunes before a crescendo closing hole curving along Victoria Cove beach, which is in play at low tides”. Mr Oliver, whose dream job as a course architect takes him all over the world evaluating courses and consulting with developers and designers, said Tasmania had two top 40 courses: Barnbougle Dunes 33 and Barnbougle Lost Farm, 40. He said Cape Wickham, which opened in late October, had already generated enough custom to warrant extra flights to the island, with seven airlines listed online. He said the publicity was attracting “a bunch of US golfers in the top

100” to the island and was confident it would exceed their expectations. “I have been to 1500 courses in 50 countries and this is the best property I have seen, with its pristine coastline, layout, dune structure – and topped off by the tallest lighthouse in Australia overlooking it. “The locals are thrilled; they’ve had a fair bit of negative publicity over the past few years and the population is less than half its peak.” Although surprised by the speed at which the course entered the World’s Top 25, Mr Oliver said it was “validation of a quest to bring world-class golf to King Island”. “Our aim was to leave behind something special that would attract thousands of golfers to the island. All credit goes to [developer] Duncan Andrews for having the courage to invest in something so remote and so

risky, and for entrusting Mike DeVries and I with the design. We were largely unproven.” Mr Andrews said praise of the course was “naturally very gratifying”. “From day one all involved in the Cape Wickham project knew they were dealing with an exceptional piece of land, and to create anything less than a sublime golf experience would have been disappointing. It is pleasing that this is being formally recognised in a world context by an eminent magazine.” The par-72, 18-hole course 6150 metres long and as it is a public resort does not have member play. Fees are $150 for 18 holes or $195 all day. “That’s a popular choice, as many golfers play two rounds a day – including Premier [Daniel] Andrews,” Mr Oliver said.

IF you’re one of the hundreds of thousands of Australians who suffer joint pain, osteoarthritis, tendinopathy or bursitis you’ll be aware of how difficult it can be to find relief, especially long-term relief. Often benefits from treatments for these conditions are short lived or involve ongoing medication or surgery. Long- term solutions are not easy to come by, especially natural ones with proven medical effectiveness. But thanks to the latest advances in medical science and the partnership between one of Australia’s leading musculoskeletal and sports podiatrists, Dr. Paul Dowie, and some of Australia’s leading orthopedic and regenerative medicine doctors and rehabilitation experts, ‘Joint & Tissue Regeneration Clinics’ has been born. Regeneration Clinics uses the latest medically proven regenerative therapies such as prolotherapy, platelet rich plasma (PRP) and autologous stem cell therapy along with nutrition therapy and exercise rehabilitation to achieve outstanding results in assisting healing and regenerating tissues. Regeneration Clinics has a team of leading experts working together across multiple modalities, to thoroughly assess, diagnose, prescribe, implement and review comprehensive and holistic treatment plans. “If we can assist the function of damaged tissue, correct and re-educate muscle patterns and identify stresses, deficiencies, biological weaknesses and sensitivities we can provide all the support the body needs to heal itself, with the help of these wonderful new regenerative therapies.” Dr. Dowie says “We’ve been able to assist thousands of people to avoid surgery and harmful medications

as well as help many who’ve previously been told nothing can be done for them. Assisting people to get their lives back through increased mobility and relief from pain, without negative side-effects, is very rewarding,“ Dr. Dowie says. If you have painful or arthritic joints, injuries that won’t heal, or damaged tissue such as tendons, ligaments, muscles or cartilage, ‘Regeneration Clinics’ just may be your answer. ‘Regeneration Clinics’ are located in Nepean Highway, Moorabbin and Kew East.

BUY Property Direct and Mainline Developments have partnered with Menzies Caring for Kids by donating a newly constructed home in Langwarrin which will be auctioned on Saturday 27th February to raise funds for on-going community work. Menzies Caring for Kids is a not for profit organisation which supports young people who can no longer live with their natural families. Founded in 1865 and established in Frankston in 1901, Menzies Caring for Kids has provided a high standard of support for young people in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula region. Through funding and partnership opportunities, Menzies Caring for Kids equips these people with the life skills they need to lead safe, independent and fulfilled lives. Menzies Caring for Kids is run by a dedicated committee of volunteers and all resources and donations received are committed to the sole purpose of helping others. It is hoped that the Menzies Caring for Kids Charity House Auction will raise awareness of their cause and more importantly, raise the funds to continue working in the community. Proceeds from the auction will fund work started by a coalition of Frankston North schools that are providing health services to students not normally accessible to them. It is the first project of its type to be operating in a school and is proving to be an outstanding success, with statistical and anecdotal evidence highlighting early benefits for the schools, students and their families. Mainline Developments have completed construction on the four bedroom, two bathroom home with the brand new property featuring a spacious double garage, entertaining alfresco area, master bedroom with ensuite, fully landscaped gardens and host of inclusions that will enable the buyer to move straight in. The property will be marketed in the $450,000 plus buyers range.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Poll to establish electric lighting Compiled by Melissa Walsh IN the 139th list published last week the name of Private Frayne, of Tyabb, appears among those who are ill. *** MR Alf. S. Wesley notifies his friends, through our advertising columns, that he has secured a renewal of license for an extended term, of Kirkpatrick’s Hotel, on the Esplanade, Mornington. *** IN response to a request from the committee of the Somerville show, Major Campbell has altered the date of the sale of furnishings at “Amesfield Park” from Wednesday, 15th March, (that being show day) to Monday, 18th March. *** THE monthly meeting of the Somerville Fruitgrowers’ Association will be held on Monday next, February 14th, in Somerville Hall, at 8 p m. Show, and other matters will be discussed. *** THE monthly meeting of the Frankston Progress Association is called for Wednesday evening next in the Mechanics’ institute. The meetings have been allowed to lapse during the holiday season, but the members are now requested to attend this meeting, and commence work for the year. *** A public meeting, under the auspices of the Red Cross and Progress societies, was held at Balnarring, on 5th

inst, to discuss ways and means towards entertaining a contingent of wounded soldiers at the beach, in March. Mr S. Perron acted as secretary. Ex-councillor Davies was in the chair. *** ANOTHER of the old identities of Frankston passed away on Tuesday last, in the person of Mr. William Davey, who died at his son-in-law’s residence, Malvern, after a short illness, at the age of 73 years. He was born at Gardiner’s Creek, and came to Frankston as a boy with his parents, residing at Davey’s Bay. He was formerly owner of the Bay View Hotel, Frankston, and while in business made many friends by his generous and obliging disposition. He leaves a widow and four sons and four daughters by his first wife to mourn their loss. The remains were buried in the Frankston cemetery. *** A surprise party, consisting of a number of members of St Paul’s Club and choir, Frankston, journeyed to Chelsea, on Thursday night, to visit Mr and Mrs Will Gregory, late of Frankston. During the evening a number of games were played, and at supper a presentation of a handsome biscuit barrel was made. The opportunity was taken to present a tea set to Mrs F. Benson on behalf of St Paul’s club and choir. *** AT the Frankston Court of Petty Sessions on Monday last, J. F. Phillips was charged by the police with reck-

less driving of a motor car on 21st January last on the Point Nepean road. The bench was occupied by Mr Cohen, P.M., and Messrs Crawford, Oates and Grant. J’s.P. Jas Cottier gave evidence that he was riding home from work on his bicycle on the evening mentioned, and when near the mile bridge, he heard the toot of a horn, and got off the road on to the sand on his right side, but before he knew anything more the car had run into him; smashed his bicycle up, and severely injured himself. He was rendered unconscious, and was bruised from head to foot. This evidence was corroborated by H. M’Comb and D. Kelly, who were also returning from work at the time. The defendant tried to show that it was Cottier’s fault that the accident occurred, but the Bench decided that the case had been proved, and imposed a fine of 60s with 9s costs. Mr Secombe appeared for the defence. *** AT the annual meeting of parishioners of St Paul’s, Frankston, it was announced that the ordinary contributions for last year had slightly increased as compared with the previous year, but that the funds were poor on account of no concert having been organised during the year. The Wardens for this year are Messrs J. Reynolds (Hon. Sec.); P. Wheeler (Hon. Treas.); and C. V. G. Williams. Six other men were also elected to act on the Vestry, viz :— Dr Maxwell and Messrs A. Bailey, T.

Deane, J. C. Garrood, Geo. May and Scarborough. It was decided to work for a big Easter offering this year, also a proposal was carried to organise a conversation at Easter time and so develop the social life of the Church more fully. *** BEFORE the war ordinary English paper cost 1¾d per lb. ; now it costs 2¾d. In addition to this, freight has more than doubled. The packing was free; now it is 32s 6d per ton. Art paper was 4d per lb., now it is 6d. Imitation art paper was 2¼d and 2½d; now it is 3½d and 4¾d. Calendar paper has raised from 2¾d to 4½d. Ordinary news printing paper has increased by 40 per cent. Heavy increases have also taken place in writing papers, cards, pasteboards and all printers sundries. Sulphide papers, used for wrapping, have risen 100 per cent. *** GOOD morning ! Have you paid your subscription yet ? Perhaps you owe for last year or several years. Now, you understand we don’t need the money; we have hundreds to get. But really it is an imposition to let people go carrying our money when we are so strong and healthy, and so abundantly able to bear the burden ourselves. For this reason we ask anybody who has any of our money in their possession to leave it at the office, or send it by post, freight, train, express, or any other way, just so long as it gets here. Silver and gold are heavy, and it

would be a matter of life long regret to us if anyone should get bowlegged, carrying it about for us. *** WE again call the attention of our readers to the fact that a poll of ratepayers will be held at Frankston, Somerville, and Hastings, on Thursday, February 17th, to decide whether an Order-in-Council shall be granted to the Frankston Gas Company to allow them to establish Electric Light and Power throughout the Shire of Frankston and Hastings. The advantages of electric light are numerous. The public lighting will be more efficient and more economical. The gas company will take all risks, so that the establishment of electric lighting will not cost one penny of the ratepayers’ money. Gas will continue to be made by the Company and no one need, unless he or she desires it, use the electric light, as gas will be supplied privately, as heretofore, if required. The Council hope that a good muster of ratepayers will poll their votes for electricity. The method of voting is peculiar. The law demands that an answer “Yes”’ or “No” shall be made to the following question “Do you desire to forbid the granting of an Order-in-Council to the Frankston Gas Company.” Those therefore who wish to have the electric light must cross out the word yes. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 12 February, 1916

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

A rock music fan’s guide to modern etiquette By Stuart McCullough IT’S a tough job. Being the opening act for a bigger, more popular band is much like being invited to a really wonderful party only to have all the other guests ignore your attempts to engage in conversation. You take to the stage brimming with enthusiasm only to be confronted by rows of empty seats because half the audience has chosen to have dessert rather than turn up on time. If you’re lucky, the evening will end with you raiding the band rider but not much more. Such is the lot of a support band. Brisbane group The Grates were an ideal choice to support The Flaming Lips. In singer Patience Hodgson, they have a not-so-secret weapon whose enthusiasm was not merely palpable but luminescent and prone to leaping off the stage, seizing unwitting patrons by the shoulders before giving them a good shake. She took to the stage wearing what I can only describe as a mumu made of tinsel. It was obvious that The Grates had not turned up solely to pick the eyes out of the catering before taking the rest of the night off. They were making a real effort to entertain. It’s at least ten years since I’d last seen The Grates It was at the Corner Hotel, Richmond, and they were supporting a British band that has long since receded into obscurity. I’m not even sure if they’d released their first album. But they were energetic and engaging, just as they were all this time later. However, some things have changed in the intervening period. Ten years ago, people went to concerts to watch. Now it’s an

PAGE 24

arm wrestle for attention as the act on stage does everything they can to distract patrons from staring at their mobile phones. He was sitting two rows ahead of us, a couple of seats over. His mobile phone had a face bigger than Bert Newton and its aura of unwelcome illumination proved an aggressive distraction. I don’t blame him for

Frankston Times 8 February 2016

bringing a mobile phone to a rock concert – my own was in my pocket at the time – but I cannot for the life of me figure out why he would sit there and play with it whilst a group was on stage doing all they could to entertain him. Here, now, were The Grates; dressed like the love child of Grug and a box of Christmas decorations, and this dude was ignoring

them completely in favour of his mobile phone. I appreciate that times have changed, really I do. That the pace of modern life is such that people must remain connected at all times, lest a highly amusing cat video be released without their knowledge. But this guy wasn’t doing anything useful. Because the screen was about the same size as the electronic scoreboard at the MCG, I could see what he was doing. He started scrolling through something that, because I do not wish to give it even a skerrick in the way of free publicity, I shall refer to as “FaceHole.” From there, he seemed to spend an inordinate amount of time looking at Seinfeld memes, focusing in particular on those featuring George Costanza. Granted, it’s certainly possible that these were not the colossal waste of time and general pimple on the backside of humanity they appear to be. For all I know, this guy has made the study of Seinfeld memes and their relation to, I don’t know, Einstein’s Theory of Relativity, his life’s work and what seems to a neutral observer such as myself to be stultifyingly stupid is, in actual fact, part of a deeper commitment to unlocking the eternal mystery of the human mind. On the other hand, he could simply be a jerk. On stage, the band pulled out all the stops. Super-douche, as I had begun to think of him, checked his messages and sent some emails. Armed with half a bag of Maltesers, I gave serious consideration to sending a few chocolate missiles his way, followed by a barrage of verbal

abuse. There is, I feel, no sign of opprobrium less ambiguous that a small piece of chocolate in the back of the head followed by a few choice words. However, keen both not to overreact and to preserve the few remaining snacks I had, I decided to keep my thoughts and the Maltesers to myself. I did this partly because I am, in essence, a peace-loving guy and partly because, I assumed, his rudeness would be confined to the opening act and, surely, would cease, once the headliners appeared. As it turns out, I assumed way too much. The Flaming Lips are one of music’s greatest spectacles, with confetti cannons, giant space-balloons and an inflatable Catfish forming part of the show. These, however, are no competition for Seinfeld memes. He remained glued to his phone throughout, pausing only for a moment to lift it above his head and film part of the performance, presumably to remind himself at a later date than he had, in fact, attended. The only other time he seemed to pay any attention to the events around him was when a giant space balloon bounced on top of his head and he glanced up, looking annoyed. He probably went home frustrated that his night of meme exploration was interrupted by music. I should probably have told him all this. But I’m sure that, had I done so, he would merely have shrugged his shoulders and answered me in the words of Mr. Costanza, ‘Well the jerk store called and they’re all out of you.’ Touché, George. www.stuartmccullough.com

JEN MIZE By Lachlan Bryan Jen Mize grew up on the outskirts of Las Vegas, Nevada. Her early years were spent loitering around casinos (both her parents worked in the gambling game) and her first jobs included ‘hypnotist’s assistant’ and ‘singing gondolier’, but she still found time to perform for First Lady Hillary Clinton at The White House, play cello with the Las Vegas Symphony Orchestra and tour as a singer with The Duke Ellington band. Mize taught herself guitar whilst working as an entertainer on cruise ships, before settling in Queensland with her Australian husband in 2006. It was then that she began to write and perform the songs that would make up her debut album – Fear, Pride and a Few Stubborn Angels.

shared between North Carolina Tobacco Farmers, Appalachian Moonshiners and the Lumbee Tribe of Native Americans, be anything less than authentic!? In truth, Mize’s voice is quite astonishing – powerful when it needs to be, warm and gentle at all other times. The album contains lovingly crafted songs and can be filed alongside the likes of Lucinda Williams and Patty Griffin – fine company indeed. If you can’t catch Jen Mize in Melbourne this month, pick up Fear, Pride and a Few Stubborn Angels on iTunes.

Recorded in Brisbane, the record was released both here in Australia and in the USA, winning over critics and fans with it’s distinctly Americana sound – after all, how could Jen, with her ancestral roots Frankston Times 8 February 2016

Kangas cause upset as Blackwell snatches ten wickets PROVINCIAL By IT Gully LANGWARRIN caused one of the upsets of the 2015-16 MPCA Provincial season on Saturday when it knocked over top-of-the-table Peninsula Old Boys. However, it was the other end of the Peninsula that had tongues wagging. MPCA and Sorrento superstar Anthony Blackwell had figures of 4/16 overnight against Pines. He finished with all 10 wickets, bowling 16.2 overs and finishing with 10/41 to help his side to a 24-run victory and maintain fourth place on the ladder. The loss to Peninsula Old Boys was also a talking point. There is little love lost between Langwarrin and POB and it was fitting that the match went down to the wire. The Old Boys seemed untouchable

coming into the clash and heading for the finals, however, the young Kangaroos held their nerve throughout and won by 13 runs. Chasing 267 for victory, the Old Boys were cruising at 0/80 with Dylan O’Malley (64) dominating and Wade Pelzer (20) playing a strong supportive role. However, Pelzer was run out and O’Malley followed a short time later. All of a sudden the Kangas were back in the game. In a blink of an eye, the visitors went from 0/80 to 6/150. Mal Coutts and Nathan Volpe answered the call before the skipper Travis Campbell himself got amongst the wickets. Glenn Prendergast (28) and Jon Forrest (51) gave the Old Boys every chance when they added 60 runs and took the score to 248, however, Prendergast was run out and Forrest became one of Matt Prosser’s three victims (3/63 from 22.2 overs) to grab

victory in the final over. Whilst it’s a tough ask, the Kangaroos still give themselves every chance of playing finals. They must get an outright win against Rye in Round 10 to have any chance. Sorrento successfully defended its poor first innings score of 116 to beat Pines and remain in the top four. The Piners were resuming at 4/39 on day two of the clash on opposition turf and only one run was added it became 5/40. Ricky Ramsdale provided some wag in the tail end (35), but Pines were all out for just 92 in 36.2 overs. Anthony Blackwell was the star and kept the Sorras in fourth place. Somerville went close to an outright victory over Moorooduc but the Ducs were able to hold out. The Ducs made 133 in their first dig and the Eagles resumed at 0/25. Craig Black blasted 82 and Brad Rossborough hit 60 as the Eagles

declared at 2/222 after just 35 overs. Moorooduc was 7/53 at one stage with Jack Kennedy (3/40) and Matty Roach (2/24) claiming wickets. However, Michael Whincup (22) and Cameron Bailey (24) knuckled down and got the job done for the Ducs, batting out the remaining 49 overs and finishing at 9/117. Crib Point made tough work of beating Mornington. Chasing 108 for victory, the Magpies resumed at 0/11. But they scrambled in the end, settling on 143. It was enough to claim the allimportant 12 points and maintain second position on the ladder. Brad McDonald was the pick of the Mornington bowlers with 3/12 from seven overs. Baxter picked-up a solid win against Long Island. Defending 9/217, Baxter was able to bowl Long Island out for 167. Dale Irving claimed 2/18 and Ben

Brittain 3/37, however, it was man of the match Chris Brittain who added 4/41 to his 122 runs. Simon Dignan top scored for the Islanders with 46. Baxter (68) is now 12 points clear of Long Island in fifth place, just four points behind Sorrento. The Islanders are now locked with Mornington, Pines, Langwarrin and Moorooduc on 56 points. Mount Eliza claimed the win against Rye, however, the Demons were spared yet another outright loss. After making 9/249 on day one, Mt Eliza tried to bowl Rye out twice on the second day. They rolled the Demons for 69 in the first innings and had them three down in the second innings. Paul Coldrey claimed 5/19 and Justin Grant 5/14 in the first innings and one wicket each in the second dig.

Braves hit a slump DISTRICT By IT Gully BADEN Powell are in a slump after losing their second match in as many rounds on Saturday in MPCA District cricket. After dominating for the first seven rounds of the season, the Braves have been knocked over by third placed Pearcedale and on Saturday, against the top of the table, premiership fancies, Red Hill. Red Hill were restricted to 200 in their first innings on the wide-open expanses of Overport Road Reserve, but were always in the box seat to defend that total. The score proved to be far too great for the Braves, given the enormous bowling lineup of the Hillmen. Baden Powell were bowled out for just 103. Jamie McCall was at his best with 4/7 from six overs, the skipper Simon Dart claimed 3/38 from 16 overs and Glen Collett picked-up 2/45 from 14 overs. Elia Carter top scored for the Braves with 27. Pearcedale were able to successfully defend 151 to beat Heatherhill. With fourth place on the ladder on the line for the Hills, they were in a strong position coming into day two at 2/74. Jake Theobald (17) and Tyler Neal (43) were the not-out batsmen at the crease and they both fell within a run of each other after adding a further 25 runs to the overnight score. It went pear-shaped for the Hills after that, losing 8/44 and being bowled out for 142. Shayne Gillings and Kaine Smith claimed 4/48 and 4/20 respectively while Sam Frawley picked-up 2/19. Seaford are 12 points clear in fourth position on the District table after beating Boneo. Ali Mortaza was the star for Seaford with 77, while Paul Hartle opened with 43. Jack Beale scored 60 runs,

including five fours and two sixes in 87 balls for Boneo in the second innings. All Seaford players other than keeper Faisal Payenda bowled at least three overs in the second innings. Delacombe Park failed to get the 266 runs required to beat Carrum, winding up their 2015/16 season. The Parkers were still half a chance to play finals had they have beaten the Lions, however, they fell 37 runs short. Craig Blight hit his highest score of the season for the Parkers with 84. Lachy Dobson claimed 3/54 from 20 overs and Tom Burgdorf also helped himself to 3/62 from 23/1 overs. Seaford Tigers made light work of scoring the 208 required for victory against Main Ridge. Skipper David James scored 100 and Ash Mills hit an unbeaten 135, including 18 fours and 4 sixes, to finish the afternoon at 4/274. Flinders couldn’t get the 321 needed to beat Mt Martha. The Sharks are in fifth place on the ladder at the end of Round nine, a game behind Seaford. On Saturday, it was always going to be tough to get 321. They needed at least one batsman to score a century. Tom Clements got 58 and Mitch Stansborough scored 55, while Simon Parrott hit 37. The Sharks needed another big contributor, but couldn’t find one. Brett Wilkinson was the pick of the Reds’ bowlers, with 3/34 from 12.2 overs, while Michael Clavin, Jake Smart and Kyle Bendle picked up two wickets each.

Thou shall not pass: Pearcedale successfully defended their 151-run total to keep Heatherhill out of fourth place. Picture: Rab Siddhi

for the MPCA in the chase with 61, while Forrest scored 48. The MPCA was bowled out for 200. Geelong beat Bendigo in the final. The Division Two team also won only one game. It lost to Leongatha on the opening day by six runs. Batting first, the MPCA made 9/152 with Billy Quigley top scoring with 42. Leongatha replied with 8/158. Skipper Dylan O’Malley claimed 3/25 and Michael Clavin 2/21. Against Sunraysia, the MPCA bowled first with the opposition scoring 8/215. Mike Reynolds and Chris King snared two wickets each. In reply, the MPCA was bowled out for 169 with Kristian Miller top scoring with 66 and Pat Jackson getting 38. Round Three was a draw after the ground was unplayable and Round Four saw the MPCA record its first win against South West. South West batted first and made 161 with Reynolds pickingup 3/17 and Quigley and Jarryd Parker claiming two wickets each. In reply, the MPCA made 7/181 with Brad Trotter top scoring with 60 and Harley Peace-Sterling hitting 43. Ballarat beat Leongatha in the final.

By IT Gully THE 2015/16 MPCA Sub District season is going to go right down to the wire after the conclusion of Round nine on Saturday. Whilst the top two positions on the ladder have been tied up for some time with Dromana on 104 points and Hastings on 94, the real battle sits from third to seventh. Carrum Downs is currently in third place on 66 points and Rosebud is hanging onto fourth place on 60 points. These two sides clashed in Round nine and it was the Cougars who came out victors by 39 runs. Rosebud would have given themselves a 12 point buffer in third place with a win. Now the Buds are hanging on for dear life with Frankston YCW also on 60 points and Tootgarook and Ballam Park just a game further back. In the final two rounds of the season, Rosebud faces Hastings at home and then plays Skye in the Round 11 one-day fixture to end the home and away season. The Buds have to beat Hastings this round and should be too strong for Skye. Frankston YCW hosts Skye in Round 10 and finishes with Balnarring in the final round. You would say the Stonecats are favorite to win both of these matches. On Saturday, the Stonecats were able to score 9/152 against Tootgarook after resuming at 3/5 overnight, chasing 143. It was a confidence-booster for the Stonecats with Matty Lane dragging them over the line with his best hit of the season (95). Tootgarook is in sixth place and now a game outside of the top four. A win

against YCW would have them right in the mix. The Frogs host Balnarring in Round 10 and play Tyabb at the pond in the final match of the season. A betting man would also have Tootgarook winning two from two. The other side in the mix is Ballam Park. The Knights smashed Balnarring on Saturday after scoring 251 in their first innings and bowling out the Saints for 157 (they resumed at 4/38). The Knights play Tyabb and Carrum Downs in the final two matches. It will be a tough ask to beat the Cougars, who have to play Dromana this round. A loss here would see Carrum Downs having to win the final game against Ballam Park to play finals.

The Round 11 one day game between Dromana and Hastings should be very interesting, given they just may meet again on the final match of the season. The Blues went within one wicket of picking-up an outright win against Skye. Defending 217, the Blues bowled out Skye for 58 and had them 9/123 in the second innings. Luke Hewitt, Liam Bradshaw and Isuru Dias all claimed three first innings wickets, while Bradshaw and Dias claimed two second innings wickets, as did Mitchell Floyd. Dromana easily beat Tyabb. Defending 211, the Hoppers rolled the Yabbies for just 86.
