Engine trouble delays departure THE vehicle carrier Hoegh Jeddah was again on the move mid-afternoon last Thursday after being anchored in the main shipping channel south of Rosebud since about 7am. It is understood the pilot called a halt to the shipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s departure from Melbourne because of engine trouble. Peter Harry from the Port of Melbourne Corporation said the shup had been anchored on the south side of the channel so as not to impede traffic. He said there had been no danger of it being grounded. By mid-afternoon the Hoegh Jeddah was undergoing sea trials, accompanied by the tug Hastings, before being given the go ahead to leave Port Phillip. The 58,000 tonne Norwegian-flagged ship was built in 2014. The 200 metre long ship is one of several similar looking vessels regularly seen in Port Phillip. In January, the Hoegh Osaka, one of the Hoegh Jeddahâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sister ships, was deliberately run aground in the Solent off the Isle of Wight after leaving the British port of Southampton. The shipâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s owners, Hoegh Autoliners, said the decision to ground the ship on a sandbank was made after it developed a list. Chief executive Ingar Skiaker was quoted by the BBC at the time as saying there had been no leakage of oil or fuel and that the master and pilot had â&#x20AC;&#x153;executed their duties based on their best judgement and we're not secondguessing their actions right nowâ&#x20AC;?. Mr Skiaker said the ship, built in 2000, was carrying 14000 cars (including Bentleys and Rolls Royces) had been â&#x20AC;&#x153;only one third fullâ&#x20AC;?. Keith Platt

Crime up across peninsula Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au CRIME across the Mornington Peninsula has risen 3.7 per cent and is likely to keep rising in the short term but police say this is a positive trend. Figures for the 12 months to June this year released by the newly formed Crime Statistics Agency reveal overall crime on the peninsula has risen from 10,164 in 2013-14 to 10,543 in 201415, fuelled by a jump in intervention order breaches and stalking offences.

Mornington Peninsula police acting inspector Dean Clinton said many of the intervention orders relate to family violence and people are more likely to report such incidents thanks to an increased awareness of what constitutes family violence and a push to focus police resources on tackling domestic violence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have now got two dedicated family violence teams who are out and about tackling these more serious and recidivist family violence offenders,â&#x20AC;? he said. Breaches of orders surged to 1331 in

2014-15, up from 931 in 2013-14. Acting inspector Clinton said police are helping victims take action to protect themselves from violence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of those orders are family violence based. We have a high number of family violence incidents reported â&#x20AC;Ś and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re raising awareness of family violence and what constitutes family violence for people to report.â&#x20AC;?

Clothesline symbol to oppose family violence THE international Clothesline Project in Frankston was launched Monday to raise awareness of family violence. A clothesline on show at Cube 37, Frankston Arts Centre, 10-13 October, is being used to illustrate the Week Without Violence campaign. It will then be displayed at different parts of the Mornington Peninsula over the next year. T-shirts with anti-violence messages will be on show made by women and children impacted by family violence.

Frankston and Mornington Peninsula Family Violence Network is concerned about the high rates of family violence and believes the humble clothesline is a great way of raising awareness in the community. The network’s volunteers and education assistant manager Saskia Weerheim said the concept was used all over the world. Australian of the Year Rosie Batty launched a children’s book about family violence, You Can’t Hide An Elephant, Monday, by Sally Halligan.

Ms Weerheim said the book was designed for supported reading with children aged 6-12 years who have experienced family violence, and help give children a voice to share their experiences. “It can help start a conversation about family violence and give children a voice to share their experience of family violence,” she said. “It is ideally suited for use by professionals working with children and has a safety plan which can be photocopied for multiple use.” The Frankston and Mornington Peninsula

Family Violence Network brings together local organisations to offer the best outcomes for families experiencing family violence. It works towards preventing and reducing family violence and increasing the safety of women, children and families. “The key message is that family violence is a fundamental violation of human rights and is unacceptable in any form,” Ms Weerheim said. Those needing help should call police on 000, Safe Steps 1800 015 188 or safesteps.org.au

Rosie effect: Australian of the Year, Tyabb resident and conscience of a nation Rosie Batty with ABC radio presenter Jon Faine at Peninsula Community Theatre in Mornington last week. Pictures supplied Supporters: Dunkley ALP candidate Peta Murphy, left, Greg Hunt MP, author Sina Summers (partly hidden), shire mayor Cr Bev Colomb, shire CEO Carl Cowie, Rosie Batty, Jon Faine, Bruce Billson MP, Dr David Price, Pastor Jim Catford and Peter Orton of Peninsula Voice at Ms Batty’s interview and book signing on Tuesday last week.

‘Town hall meeting’ greets Rosie Batty Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au ANOTHER step in the long journey to reduce the national scourge of family violence was taken at Peninsula Community Theatre in Mornington last Thursday night when about 450 people packed the hall and its foyer to hear Rosie Batty. The Australian of the Year and Tyabb resident was given a hero’s welcome at the event, the last of an initial Australia-wide tour to promote her book, Rosie Batty: A Mother’s Story, which went on sale late last month. Ms Batty explored now-familiar themes during an interview with ABC radio presenter Jon Faine and, after

the formal part of the evening, signed books for people for almost two hours. Her book tells the harrowing story of the events of Wednesday 12 February 2014 – when her son Luke was killed by his father Greg Anderson at cricket practice – and the 18 months since as Ms Batty has taken on the role of the nation’s conscience in the fight to reduce family violence. The hall was decked in yellow wattle, Luke’s favourite colour, and many people in the audience wore yellow. Pupils of Penbank School had painted more than 100 works of art in yellow on the theme “Safe at home”, and they will be displayed at peninsula libraries. The event was organised by Peninsula Voice with the assistance of

Mornington Peninsula Shire, Rotary Club of Mornington and the town’s CFA brigade. (Peninsula Voice is an alliance of peninsula churches and community support groups tackling family violence and other social issues such as drug and alcohol abuse.) Catering was done by Mornington Secondary College students and Flinders Christian College’s concert band performed. Luke was a Flinders College student. Ms Batty was thanked by the shire’s CEO Carl Cowie and the mayor, Cr Bev Colomb. Peter Orton of Peninsula Voice said the event felt like “a town hall meeting from years ago where the community used to come together to discuss or cel-

ebrate something very important”. “These are the kind of events we need as a nation to better tackle family violence.” He said Ms Batty had “won hearts and minds with her compassion, courage, grace and forgiveness”. “The event was our chance to welcome Rosie back and share some stories of the roller coaster of the past 18 months.” The day before, the state government announced an expression of interest process for trials of its “Personal Safety Initiative” – testing how technology such as CCTV and personal safety cards could be used to improve the safety of women and children experiencing family violence.

Women who participate in the $900,000 trial will also receive case management support to ensure that the use of technology is part of a broader plan for safety and wellbeing. “The state government will work with the federal government following its recent commitment for funding in this area to maximise positive outcomes for women and children,” state Minister for Families and Children Jenny Mikakos said. “Combining technological solutions with existing services to help keep women and children safer in their own homes is an important step towards further empowerment.” The pilot is expected to start before the end of the year.

NEWS DESK Women’s soccer SOUTHERN United Football Club has been awarded one of eight new Women’s National Premier League licences for next season. It will soon hold trials for under-13, under-15 and under-18 players from all over the Mornington Peninsula, with successful players called back for a second round. Southern area trials will be held at Langwarrin Soccer Club, Barretts Rd, Langwarrin South, 10am-noon, Saturday 24 October. South East Area trials will be held 6.30-8.30pm, Tuesday 20 October and Thursday 22 October, at Casey Comets Soccer Club, O’Tooles Rd Cranbourne. Club treasurer Rosemary Meads sees it as an “historic event for the peninsula as it was the first time female soccer players wishing to play at an elite level – state and national – can train and play locally”. “Traditionally they have had to travel 45 minutes to over an hour to play with a club of this level,” Ms Meads said. For details email women@morningtonsc.com.au

For the love of animals: Charlie, owned by Glythyn Campbell, receives a blessing from the Rev Fiona Goy.

Animals receive church blessing ANIMAL lovers and their pets took part in a Blessing of the Animals service at St George’s Anglican Church, Red Hill, Sunday last week. The event marked the Feast Day of St Francis, who died in 1226, but is remembered “for his love of God’s Creation”. The Rev Fiona Goy described the service as a “celebration of the environment and all living creatures and an opportunity to acknowledge the important place they have in our lives”. While the music was accompanied by the occasional bark, all animals were reportedly well behaved as they proceeded up the aisle for an individual blessing. Refreshments were served on the church veranda after the service, which is becoming a popular annual occasion at St. George’s.

Church celebrating THREE flags in the Mt Eliza village and a large banner outside St James the Less church proclaim that the Anglican Parish of Mt Eliza is celebrating 150 years of service to the community. On-going celebrations will continue at the church, on the corner of Koetong Pd and Nepean Hwy, over the next week. The anniversary will conclude with a special service in the presence of the Primate, Archbishop Philip Freier. Details of all celebrations are provided on the parish website at mteliza.melbourneanglican.org.au

Family violence up across peninsula Continued from Page 1 The statistics show for the first time the ages of people and repeat offenders have been recorded by police as alleged offenders and victims. Crime Statistics Agency chief statistician Fiona Dowsley said that while the number of “unique victims” across Victoria has remained stable from the previous year’s figures, there was a drop in the number of victims under the age of 25. “Over the last year we have seen a 4 per cent drop in the number of victims under 25, with the greatest change seen amongst 15 to 19 year old victims who dropped by 8 per cent,” Ms Dowsley said. The number of offenders aged under 25 also dropped, down 4.2 per cent compared to the previous year but these of-

fenders were involved in more incidents on average compared to other alleged offenders’ age groups. “Our statistics show that on average, offenders under 25 were involved in 2.2 incidents per offender compared to the overall average of 1.9 incidents per offender.” In 2011 a Victorian Ombudsman’s report found quarterly crime statistics released three days before the 2010 state election showing a drop in assaults in Melbourne’s CBD “was based on yet to be validated data”. The Labor state government backed the formation of the CSA when in opposition and Victoria Police supported the Ombudsman’s recommendation to establish an independent body to manage crime statistics.

Crime pays for new data agency THE outsourcing of of crime statistics management from Victoria Police to the newly established Crime Statistics Agency will see fees charged for some requests for statistics specifically requested from the independent agency. Businesses, educational institutions, community groups, private researchers, the media, individuals and even federal and state government departments can now be charged for statistical information about crimes not provided in the CSA’s quarterly crime statistics. The CSA charges came into force

in July this year “on a cost recovery model” according to the agency’s website. The CSA states: “Clients are only covering the cost of the time it takes for a member of the CSA team to complete the request”. A total of $156.40 is charged for the first two hours of a request for further crime statistics information and $77.52 per hour is charged for each hour after the first two hours. Information the CSA deems will take less than two hours to collate will be provided free of charge. CSA chief statistician Fiona Dowsley said “the majority of requests are

small and take less than two hours to complete”. “If a request takes two hours or more to complete, the CSA will compile an agreement to proceed and a quote is sent before fulfilling the request,” she said. Victoria Police had been previously allowed to charge for crime statistics requests before handing over responsibility for crime data collation to the independent CSA last year. The CSA was established at a cost of $8.4 million to taxpayers. Neil Walker

Swarm dilemma raises questions on bee care Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au ROSEBUD myotherapist and Pilates teacher Claire Stidston could be forgiven for not knowing what to do when she discovered a swarm of bees had attached itself to her car. Unsure who to call or how to remove the swarm without harming herself – or her little hitchhikers – Ms Stidston drove home to Main Ridge with 50 bees in hot pursuit. “I felt terrible but I couldn’t think what to do about them,” she said. “Long story short, overnight, they were run over and the whole hive got killed. “Bees are so important to us and I don't think enough people know what to do if faced with a whole swarm.” Beekeeper Simon Mulvany, founder of Save the Bees Australia, said swarms on the Mornington Peninsula were natural and “nothing to be concerned about”. He said they occurred when a colony split, with 60 per cent of the hive staying with one queen while 40 per cent ventured off looking for new territory with the new queen. “The bees on Claire’s car would have been resting while the scouts were out patrolling for a new hive site,” he said.

“This is a natural part of the bees’ life cycle and may take three days.” He received Ms Stidston’s call next day, but it was too late to help. “She felt dreadful,” he said. Last week Mr Mulvany removed a “huge” swarm at Beleura Hill Preschool, Amelia Av, Mornington, to the great interest of the staff and pupils. He said the swarm had been set for extermination by the shire but was safely relocated to a friend’s rural property – one of 100 relocations Mr Mulvany did in the past year. “Residents should contact a beekeeper immediately they see a ball,” he said. His website savethebeesaustralia says that once the bee scouts find a suitable home in urban areas it is quite likely people will be affected, so quick action is needed. “Once inside the wall of a house the removal can be costly and take a lot of time or, in the worst case, bees will be exterminated.” The site swarmpatrol.com is handy for notifying the closest beekeepers, who will arrange a visit to remove the hive for relocation. The shire’s natural systems team leader Simon Thorning said bees (and wasps) in bushland reserves were only removed or relocated if they were a

problem for workers doing bushland maintenance or management works, or for the safety of the public – usually only where people congregate. “Generally, destruction [of the hive] will only occur where it is physically impossible to access the hive for removal or relocation,” he said. Mr Mulvany said wisdom and longterm vision for the future of beekeeping were necessary at a time when the dreaded varroa mite was threatening. “Australia is the only continent with healthy bees not affected by the mite, which is the only parasite which kills its host,” he said, with experts confirming it is not a question of “if” but “when” the mite will arrive. “If even one hive gets attacked the mites will spread quickly,” Mr Mulvany

said. “That would put an end to commercial beekeeping for the next two years.” Despite routine commercial beekeeping practices of moving hives all over the state for short periods – hives in their normal state would remain in the one place for years. This man-made intervention could also exacerbate the devastating effects of the varroa mite. “It’s not natural for hives to be moved around. Some remain in exposed conditions for years,” he said. He quoted Albert Einstein to illustrate the bees’ importance: “If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would have only four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.”

OWNERS of heritage properties on the peninsula can access grants from the shire for heritage conservation projects. The grants range from $1000 to $2500 although exceptions may be made in special circumstances, said the mayor, Cr Bev Colomb. “The shire makes the grants available annually on a 50-50 funding basis and generally grants do not exceed 50 per cent of the total value of works,” she said. “They help owners of heritage places maintain and preserve their properties. “Properties that are covered by a heritage overlay, or contribute significantly to heritage precincts under the Mornington Peninsula Planning Scheme, are eligible for a grant. “It is important to support efforts that assist in the preservation of our heritage.” Applications close Monday 9 November. For free advice on conservation methods as well as grant information, contact the shire’s strategic planning department on 5950 1928 or visit mornpen.vic.gov.au/Our_ Shire/Community_Grants/ Heritage_Grants

A HIGH percentage of Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula are significantly older than the state’s average. While living longer has many advantages it can also be the cause of isolation which, in turn, can lead to poor health – mentally and physically. On Thursday seniors were shown how to keep active and connected at the 10th annual Ageing Well Expo at New

Peninsula Baptist Church, Mt Martha. They had access to 100 stalls, saw demonstrations and attended workshops to help seniors age well. Supporters included Mornington Peninsula Shire, Frankston Council, National Seniors Australia, volunteers, and Peninsula Advisory Committee for Elders. Benetas Residential Aged Care was a sponsor.

Old hearing aids add to quality of life ROSEBUD audiologist Fallon Arnold is about to head off on a two-week volunteer placement for All Ears Cambodia, based in the capital, Phnom Penh. The organisation offers a range of hearing health services to those afflicted with hearing loss or ear-health problems, such as infections. “It has been something I have always wanted to do,” Ms Arnold said. She received input from an audiologist working in Queensland “who was fortunate enough to do several placements there”. “We have a fantastic health care system in Australia and I wanted to give back to a country where access to vital hearing health care is not readily available,” she said. Ms Arnold has collected more than 1000 hearing aids – from manufacturers, work colleagues, other audiologists, clients and Mornington Peninsula residents – which will help adults and children afflicted with hearing loss. “I'm hoping that my fundraising and collection efforts will make a significant improvement to their lives,” she said of her Cambodian clients, many of whom are living in poor conditions. “All Ears Cambodia appreciates and accepts donations and fundraising from all over the world and I am hoping that the $2000 I have raised will go towards vital equipment and supplies needed to treat patients suffering a range of hearing/ear problems. “The hearing aids can be programmed to suit a patient’s hearing loss, ensuring they are able to communicate and listen to their friends and family and allow them to be productive members of the Cambodian society.” Ms Arnold put out the call in June for hearingaid donations and was hoping to receive 400

– so 1000 exceeds her wildest dreams. “Even if I get 100, that will help 50 people,” she said at the time. They will be much appreciated in Cambodia. “People have no access to government assistance programs and donations such as these are very much appreciated.” Ms Arnold said volunteering for the organisation “has been a dream of mine since I was an audiology student back in 2010”. “To be able to experience first-hand the wonderful work All Ears Cambodia is doing will be life changing and I’m so excited to be going over there in a few weeks to share my skills and knowledge.” Ms Arnold previously visited Phnom Penh as a tourist – but the thrill this time is being able to assist in a professional capacity.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank you Choice Fresh Meals!â&#x20AC;? Jack and Mavis Kennedy, both 86, decided to try Choice Fresh Meals after Mavis had heard good reports from friends. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I belong to a seniors club and we began talking about meals one day and someone said they were using the company and we decided to give it a try. The main reason we did it was that if anything happens to me, Jack would struggle to carry on with preparing food. And the same goes for me if something happened to Jack. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice break from cooking every night and they have a large choice of mealsâ&#x20AC;Śeveryone has something they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like, so it is nice to have a good range to choose from.

Southern Peninsula News 13 October 2015

Versatile skipper takes his final voyage OBITUARY Andrew Charles “Eck” Mackinnon, 16 June 1956–27 September 2015, licensed mariner, amateur photographer, “shippie” SOME of the best photos of ships of all types and sizes plying their trade in Port Phillip were taken by Sorrento amateur photographer Andrew Mackinnon, who has died at age 59 after a battle with cancer of the lymphatic system that he beat in 2010 but which returned in 2013. Mr Mackinnon was a long-time member of the Melbourne branch of the World Ship Society, whose members keep a keen eye on maritime comings and goings in seaways and ports around the globe. But don’t call them ship spotters – they’re shippies. He was also a member of Hastings-based Peninsula Ship Society. His photos of vessels of all kinds – from tall ships to huge container vessels – graced the pages of this newspaper, his own website, aquamanship.com, and were sold around the world through his business Maritime Media Services. Mr Mackinnon was born into a famous Sorrento couta boat fishing family and at age 12 started helping his father Ted while still at Dromana Secondary College, with the expectation that he would follow his grandfather and father into the trade. Years later he would tell friends that he hated fishing but loved boats. He left school at 15, worked at Stringer’s Store and a couple of other places

Ancient and modern: Andrew Mackinnon covered many events in Port Phillip and one of the most spectacular of recent times was the Parade of Sail in September 2013, part of the Melbourne International Tall Ships Festival. With an eye on maritime history, Andrew captured the Dutch tall ship Europa and Searoad Ferries’ car and passenger vessel Queenscliff off Sorrento. Picture: Andrew Mackinnon (thanks, Skipper)

before gaining a job working for the Farnsworth brothers Jack and Harry aboard their passenger ferries Nepean and Hygeia, which ran from Sorrento and Portsea to Queenscliff. He knew the Farnsworths from when he used to ride his bicycle to Portsea at about age 8 and hitch a ride to and from Queenscliff on ferries until someone told him to go home before his mother started worrying. Mr Mackinnon worked his way up from ferry deckhand to Master 5, licensed to skipper vessels up to 80 metres long. His career as a small ships master was varied; he worked for Port Phillip Sea Pilots, “drove” Searoad car ferries between Sorrento and Queenscliff, pleasure boats on

the Yarra, Maribyrnong and Port Phillip such as the former Sydney harbour ferry Lady Cutler, a barge for Dutch company Boskalis during the controversial channel deepening project of Port Phillip in 2008-09, and one of its dredgers at Gladstone for an equally controversial liquid natural gas project. He also worked on Isle of Wight ferries when in the United Kingdom. He had a business servicing tug boats at Geelong and maintaining Port Phillip’s channel markers. Speaking of channel markers, he famously climbed a beacon off Portsea in November 2012 to “rescue” a 12-metre yacht that had become entangled in the tower. He had been alerted to the yacht’s

predicament by a Searoad ferry skipper. Being a man of action, Mr Mackinnon borrowed bolt cutters, marched down to his boat, drove to the beacon, climbed to the top and cut wires and ropes, sending the mast crashing into the water but freeing the craft. Southern Peninsula Rescue Service had earlier taken 10 tourists off the yacht. When he couldn’t get work on boats, Mr Mackinnon started his own courier company, worked for a mate laying asphalt tennis courts, as a house painter, at a Sorrento hotel’s bottleshop, and as a sexton at Sorrento cemetery. Soon after he started the bottleshop job, the owner came out to see how he was going and found him washing

his car. He told his boss there was nothing to do. They argued and he was fired. Next day he drove into the same bottleshop to buy something and the owner was manning the counter. “What are you doing?” he asked. “I’m running the bloody bottleshop until I find someone to replace you,” he said pointedly. “Do you want me to hold the fort?” He got his job back after a gap of about 14 hours. No car washing allowed. Mr Mackinnon had more time to photograph ships in recent years and told reporter Lorna Edwards of The Age in early 2010 that documenting ships had helped him win his battle against lymphoma in 2009. “All along, just keeping interested in ships kept my mind off things and on the bad days when there was a ship coming, nothing was going to stop me,” he said. “I was never one for sitting around thinking ‘poor me’ – I got up and went out and did things and kept my eyes and ears open for anything with ships and I reckon it helped.” Mr Mackinnon’s lifelong mate John Stringer (they met at Sorrento primary in the 1960s) said Andrew’s 10,000 plus photos would be donated to the Queenscliffe Maritime Museum, an unsurpassed record of Port Phillip shipping of the modern era. Items inherited from his grandfather and father would go to the Sorrento Museum. A service for Mr Mackinnon will be held aboard Searoad’s ferry Peninsula Princess on Monday 2 November. Mike Hast

Trim, taut and terrific: Angel Warriors Nicky Jacobson, left, and Alicia Jukes prepare for Natural Olympia titles in Las Vegas next month.

Angel Warriors tackle bodybuilding’s world stage TWO Mornington bodybuilders will take part in the Natural Olympia competition in Las Vegas next month. Ultimate Fitness owner Nicky Jacobson, who is team coach of the Ultimate Angel Warriors bodybuilding and fitness model team, along with colleague Alicia Jukes, have qualified to represent Australia in the Natural Olympia in Las Vegas, in November. Club member Andrew Barnes said

this was the biggest natural bodybuilding competition on the 2015 world calendar. Jacobson has made a big impact in her eight-year bodybuilding career. As the Victorian Over 40 fitness champion she qualified for last week’s Australian titles in Canberra, where, she was named the Australian Over 40 fitness champion. As well as these titles, Jacobson has

had other placings over the past month in different divisions. These include a fourth, two thirds, one second and two championships titles. The dedicated athlete is also a committed coach of a team of 20 athletes all competing in different divisions, ranging from novice to champion. Jukes is a champion in her own right: she took out three championships at this year’s Victorian titles

despite not competing in her chosen division of bikini model. The mother-of-two won all of her categories and went from strength to strength, taking out another three placings at this year’s Australian titles. “These two amazing women are dedicated mums, personal trainers, friends and Victorian and Australian champions. They are now on the way to Vegas for the biggest and best show

this year,” Barnes said. “The Natural Olympia is the pinnacle of the natural bodybuilding calendar and is set to be the biggest show in which their pair has ever competed.” While their dream of representing Australia is now a reality, they are also appealing for financial help. The pair’s Go Fund Me account is gogetfunding.com/inba-natural-olympia/ Stephen Taylor

LETTERS Bay Trail supporter I congratulate Mornington Peninsula Shire for its advocacy to complete the missing links of the Bay Trail, and I encourage residents and visitors to support this important project, which will finally close the loop on the Mornington Peninsula Walk. The remaining missing links between Rye and Sorrento have been long overdue for completion and once completed will finally allow walkers to traverse the southern peninsula coastlines and hinterland along a single walking path. In recent months my office has been working with community groups, the shire and state government agencies to determine an alignment and design for the final stages of the path. All members of this Bay Trail working group are grateful for the enormous support from shire officers in helping to move the project forward. At the same time I have also met with key representatives from our indigenous community who have expressed a great interest in developing the cultural heritage interpretation for various sections of the Bay Trail. Consequently, it will be a significant icon that will be able to help us understand better the history of human habitation on the peninsula and how we have continued to interact and depend on our magnificent and treasured coastal environment. Once the current period of public consultation concludes with the shire, the Bay Trail working group will make a formal submission to the government for funding to be made available over coming years to enable work to start on the various paths and boardwalks. Funding will also be sought from the federal government as well as community and philanthropic funds. So, combined with the support of the broader community, I am confident we will finally see the completion of our long awaited Bay Trail. Martin Dixon, MP for Nepean

Community spirit Over the past days the Carrum Downs community has shown us the true meaning of community spirit (“Hit-run mum death charges”, The News, 29/9/15). Following the very tragic death of local nurse and young mum Andrea Lehane, this extraordinary community has come together in a show of strength, support and resilience. I joined with thousands of others as we stood together, held hands and lit candles to pay our respects to Andrea at a candlelight service at Carrum Downs shopping centre. What shone through that night was not anger or hatred but compassion, compassion for Andrea’s family and a steadfast resolve to make Carrum Downs an even better, stronger, caring and compassionate community for all. I am so very proud to be a part of this community. In the weeks and months ahead I will be asking community members to share their thoughts on what we can do to make our community an even better place for our kids and families. Sonya Kilkenny, MP for Carrum

Crushing logic If a hoon driver is found to be repeatedly breaking road laws, police can confiscate the car and, subject to certain conditions, have the car crushed.

Why can’t the same principle be applied to monkey bikes? Michael Long, Frankston Editor: Frankston Council has already adopted a local law that provides for the seizure and destruction of monkey bikes.

Fear-mongering Being a member of the Greens I was dismayed, at best, at the party’s irrevocable stance against rate capping. In addition, after reading some comments made by members, it appears that they have abandoned what they profess to hold dear and true – “basing decisions on science and evidence”. I can find no evidence to support claims like “Even before the details of the new scheme were released, the chilling effect of the anti-democratic rate cap has seen many job losses across local government”. I have yet to find anything other than rhetoric and fear-mongering by them on this issue. They have ignored any evidence present in the many reports referenced by the Essential Services Commission on rate capping in NSW and I wonder if they have even read any of the information provided by the commission in its discussion paper and draft documents. They are key participants in the Legislative Council’s Coalition-led witch hunt (Inquiry into Rate Capping Policy), which is in total violation of its own terms of reference “to inquire into and report every six months on the outcome of the state government policy of local government rate capping”. Rate capping is not even legislated and this committee has already interviewed 16 councils and council peak bodies, only one independent report that was short-circuited, and only two ratepayer groups. When you read the transcripts, their intent becomes patently clear – to discredit rate capping any way they can. I will continue to support the Greens, as I believe the party’s overall policies are sound. However, on this issue, I am quite disappointed in their behaviour and disregard of the abuses of rate rises and financial responsibility by many councils, in a very undemocratic way, at the expense of ratepayers. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Power to India Ken Dyer (“Power grid’s expensive”, Letters, 29/9/15) demonstrates an amazingly arrogant and imperious attitude to the poor of the world. In his view, we have to provide the Indians only with enough electrical energy “to provide light and the ability to charge mobile phones” as “300 million people in India live without electricity and cannot afford to pay”. The Greens want to ensure they cannot get enough energy or electricity so they can have jobs and improved living standards to pay for some of the basics that we lucky Australians expect for granted. Electricity could power factories that perhaps could make the mobile phones “that one billion Indians use” or make solar panels and distribution systems so they can have TV or washing machines or other appliances that solar power users in Rosebud West enjoy using, even at night, due to their connection to a power grid, which gives them reliable, dependable supply that they want to deny to the “poor of India”.

There may be one million solar systems in homes in Australia, but I suggest that 99.9 per cent of them are still connected to a centralised power grid so they can do more than charge their mobile phones under a single light globe. We cannot tell the poor in Africa and the Indian subcontinent that they do not need or cannot use a reliable and low-cost source of energy, which is the basis of our lifestyle. If “we” want to deny them coal-based power, then “we” should disconnect from the grid, if it is “uneconomic and polluting” as argued. Alan Reid, Sorrento

ing funding from the black spot program and keep up the safe planning to deliver the highest benefits of safety for the overall community of the peninsula and its many visitors. Bruce and Jane MacDonald, Mt Eliza

Ring the bell

EPA inquiry

Is a bell necessary on a bicycle? Yes, it certainly is. On Sunday 13 September at about 6pm our beloved dog was badly injured by a careless, female, lycra-clad cyclist who ran over her. She didn’t stop, but jumped back on her bike and took off with her friend. This happened on a walking track right behind my house. Luckily, my dog has survived after being treated by a vet but still has serious problems. My vet bills are costly but at least my beloved pet is still alive. This walking track is for walkers, slow bike riding and citizens’ enjoyment, not bike hoons. Cyclists, be considerate of other people as next time a collision could be with a young child or an elderly person. I hope the person who injured my dog reads this and learns a lesson from it. Please, in future, slow down and use your bell or voice to warn if you are approaching. Name supplied, Karingal

THE state government is seeking opinions about the future of the Environment Protection Authority. A public meeting in Frankston on Tuesday 13 October will provide an opportunity for Frankston and Mornington Peninsula residents to have their say about the EPA’s role in land use planning, public health, emergency management, climate change, better regulatory approaches, and ways it can effectively consult with the community. Frankston is one of 17 locations in the state for meetings being held as part of an inquiry commissioned by Environment, Climate Change and Water Minister Lisa Neville to look at the future role of the EPA, Victoria’s environmental regulator. The meeting is 5.30-7.30pm Tuesday 13 October, Graham Room, Frankston Football Club, Plowman Place, Frankston. Register at: www.epa-inquiry.vic.gov.au or call 9948 2882. The inquiry is due to report to Ms Neville by 31 March 2016.

Roundabout support In the decade we have lived on Brighton Cres, Mt Eliza, there have been two fatalities (that we are aware of). There have also been three near-fatalities caused by excessive speed (one of which very nearly became a triple fatality with one person airlifted to hospital in a critical condition and the other two also taken to hospital). The near-fatalities all happened at the corner of Brighton Cres and Wooralla Drive. As Greg Dixon uses Wooralla Drive every day, he would be aware of the unsafe high speeds drivers are travelling on this road, exceeding the clearly signposted 60km/h limit (“New roundabout a waste”, The News, 6/10/15). As parents of teenagers soon to be driving by themselves, we know we are not alone to be pleased that two roundabouts are being planned for Wooralla Drive. They will force drivers to slow down and pay attention to the speed limit. How can this “increase the danger of this particular section of a key arterial connecting road”? Along with the planned footpath down to Emil Madsen Reserve (which will hopefully get the kids on bikes and skateboards off Wooralla Drive), the roundabouts are only going to slow traffic down and improve safety for other motorists, pedestrians and cyclists. How can the prevention of further fatalities on this road be classified as “a mad obsession with destroying roads in the name of an imaginary black spot program”? I hope Mr Dixon enjoys the two roundabouts on his Tower Rd – one can only imagine the speed vehicles would travel along the road if there was nothing to slow them down. Well done to Mornington Peninsula Shire in obtain-

Loving care: Volunteers Frances Adam and Jenny Baker use their skills to manage blooms at the Mornington Botanical Rose Gardens. Picture: Garry Sissons

A blooming rejuvenation AFTER producing award-winning and colourful rose blooms for nine years, the Mornington Botanical Rose Gardens soil needed rejuvenating. Always willing to help, about 40 volunteers stripped the stems and applied a reconditioning agent to the soil. They then laid a fresh layer of pine bark over the beds. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a big year for the gardens which was awarded the 2015 World Federation Society Award of Garden Excellence. The award will be

presented at a function on 12 November. The gardens are in the civic reserve on the corner of Dunns and Mornington-Tyabb roads, Mornington. More than 4000 roses are in 86 beds surrounded by native trees and shrubs. The gardens are cared for and maintained by volunteers, sponsors and Mornington Peninsula Shire Council. They are open seven days a week and admission is free.

School walk with benefits A HOST of Mornington Peninsula primary schools are taking part in VicHealthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Walk to School activities this month. The mayor Cr Bev Colomb joined pupils at Mt Marthaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Osborne Primary School on Wednesday, while Cr Antonella Celi took part in festivities on Thursday at Our Lady of Fatima Primary School, Rosebud. Walk to Schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s month of activities encourages pupils to walk â&#x20AC;&#x201C; or ride, scoot or skate â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to and from school throughout October. It improves health and fitness, increases social connections and confidence â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and helps care of the environment by reducing car emissions.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mornington Peninsula is pleased to once again be part of this important initiative having coordinated Walk to School activities in local primary schools for a number of years,â&#x20AC;? the mayor Cr Colomb said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our Youth Services team will attend and support Walk to School activities across the whole peninsula helping students build healthy habits and work towards meeting the 60 minutes of physical activity recommended for children each day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I would also like to congratulate parents and children that walk to school and who organise walking buses as they inspire others to get on board.â&#x20AC;?

Motorisation Big changes in the legislation for roller blind chain requirements are driving the rapid expansion and development of blind motorisation. Over time this new legislation will result in the complete phase out of all chains on roller blinds. In Europe, it will be compulsory for any new roller blind installed after 2017 to have motorisation instead of roller chains. These legislative changes will soon also apply to the Australian market. Peninsula Curtains is at the forefront of this change. We offer personalised solutions for all of your automation needs, with features that include; soft start and stop speed control, adjustable and automatic limits and intermediate positioning. Control options include; AC switching, digital technology, individual contact, sun control, timer control and group master control. Motorised curtain tracks are also a popular addition to open plan living. They create a soft room divider for extra privacy allowing for a large open plan feel when entertaining. They are designed to accommodate both one way and centre opening options, and are functional and quiet for optimal acoustics. With the significant growth and development in the area of motorisation, and still time to order before Christmas. Take advantage and get one of our experienced decorators to come out and give you a free measure and quote.

Legendary performers inspire new cabaret show Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au IF all goes well, American and European audiences will hear what an audience in Mornington will witness later this month – a new Australian show, Edith and Marlene, which will premiere at historic Beleura House. The cabaret show is the work of acclaimed Melbourne pianist and world Chopin expert Alan Kogosowski and his friend and recent performance partner, Melbourne mezzo-soprano Galit Klas. And it was “The Little Sparrow”, Edith Piaf, who brought them together and also brought them to Beleura, which has now become one of their favourite venues after they first played and sang there for a National Trust gathering mid-winter. Kogosowski first heard Galit Klas at a variety concert at the Astor Theatre in Melbourne earlier this year where she finished with Piaf’s signature song Non, je ne regrette rien (No, I regret nothing). He was deeply impressed and they met after the concert. When he was asked to perform at the 30th anniversary of the peninsula branch of the trust, he called Galit to see if she would join him. Klas ended their little concert in the Tallis Pavilion at Beleura with Non, je ne regrette rien, and Beleura House director Anthony Knight also was deeply impressed, later asking the pair if they would return and do a concert of Piaf songs. Kogosowski jumped on the internet to find out more about the famous

Little black dress: Left, Beleura’s “wardrobe mistress” Heather Peake, left, and mezzo-soprano Galit Klas in the costume room at Beleura. Above, Edith Piaf and Marlene Dietrich. Pictures supplied

French singer and, among many photos, found several of Piaf and her friend Marlene Dietrich. The two met when Piaf went to the United States. Dietrich was 15 years older and a superstar actor but the two made a strong connection and became lifelong friends. Dietrich was Piaf’s matron of honour at her wedding in 1952 and one of the photos shows Dietrich on her knees adjusting Piaf’s shoes just before the ceremony. Dietrich started doing cabaret after she met Piaf and she moved from the US to Paris to be closer to her friend. With input from Klas, Kogosowski has written a script that explores the

life of Piaf and especially the bond between the two women, interspersed with 12 songs, nine from Piaf and three from Dietrich including her classics Lili Marlene and Falling in Love Again. “Galit is Australian-born and speaks English only but sings in a perfect German and French accent,” he said. “She is superb in the songs of Piaf, which she sings with the same conviction and sincerity as ‘The Little Sparrow’.” The pair was at Beleura last week so Klas could find clothes for the concert. In short time Beleura’s “wardrobe mistress” Heather Peake

found a Piaf-style little black dress and a trench coat from the collection, most of which has been donated by Beleura volunteers or made by Ms Peake. She and her team outfit performers for several shows at the house each year including Christmas Bonbons, a comic opera. “This is made of chiffon,” Ms Peake said. “It’s typical of Piaf’s little black dresses, which had variations of the neckline; her signature look.” Later Kogosowski and Klas walked across to the pavilion where the pianist showed off the “Melba” piano, a Wertheim baby grand. Dame Nellie Melba was one of J C Williamson’s

star performers and a frequent visitor to Beleura, bought in 1916 by the Australian head of JCW, Sir George Tallis. A last word from the script, Piaf talking about love: “When you love, you’re brave. If you’re to make something of yourself you need love in your life. It’s what helps you, what reveals you to yourself. I know that for me, at least, it has always helped me in life.”  Edith and Marlene, 1.30pm Thursday 29 October. Places are limited. Bookings: 5975 2027 (9.30am-4pm Tues-Fri), info@ beleura.org.au or at beleura.org.au

Rowers enter the dragon boat THE Peninsula Dragonflys are encouraging breast cancer survivors to row, row, row a boat. The colourful dragon boat cruises along Patterson River at Carrum most Saturday mornings crewed by a team of women rowers. The Dragonflys, part of the Dragons Abreast organisation, offer breast cancer survivors a chance to meet others with similar experiences and have fun while exercising. The women are putting the call out for new crew members to head along and give rowing a go later this month during National Paddle Month. Peninsula Dragonflys vice-president Linda Young said the club will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year and currently has 58 paddling members. “It’s a supportive and fun way to realise there is life after breast cancer,” she said.

Those who find they become competitive rowers can compete against teams from other states. The Peninsula Dragonflys represented Melbourne at the Australian Masters Games in Adelaide at the weekend, winning bronze in the rowing 10s and silver in the 20s competition. Breast cancer survivors are invited to join the crew on Saturday 24 October and Saturday 31 October at 9.30am. Call Linda Young on 0421 325 363 or Peninsula Dragonflys president Tricia Lewis on 0407 539 382 for further information.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Salvation Army lecture this week Compiled by Melissa Walsh PROFESSOR C. Mudd will hold services in connection with the Methodist Home Missions on Sunday, 24th inst. He will preach at Frankston in the morning, Langwarrin in the afternoon and Somerville in the evening. *** A bazaar in aid of the Church of England renovation fund will be opened in the Hastings Town Hall on Friday evening next at 7.30 o’clock, and will be continued on Saturday afternoon and evening. The local band will play selections during both evenings. We understand there will be a good display of useful and fancy articles on the various stalls, which will be offered to the public at reasonable rates. *** MRS Commissioner Hay, of the Salvation Army, will deliver her well known lecture, entitled “The Salvation Army among the troops in camp and abroad,” in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Wednesday evening next. The chair will be occupied by Rev R. Jackson. Mrs Hay has the reputation of being a fluent speaker and the subject matter of the lecture should prove interesting. *** AS announced elsewhere in this issue the annual spring show of the Moorabbin Horticultural Society takes place on the 13th November at the Recreation Reserve, Cheltenham. The committee this year have made the entry fees very low and the prize money also, with the idea of raising £100 for

the benefit of the Australian sick and wounded soldiers’ fund. The management informs us that arrangements are being made for exhibitors to denote on their entry forms any exhibits they are prepared to give to wards this fund. An auction sale will be held on the show grounds during the afternoon for the purpose of disposing of the goods. Further enquiries will be answered on application to the hon secs, Messrs R. L. Amess and T H Ould, at the show office, Cheltenham, from whom schedules, entry forms, and member’s tickets can be obtained. *** THE annual meeting of the Dromana Sports Club was held in the Dromana Hall on Saturday night last. The president of the club, Mr J. Matthews, occupied the chair. The secretary submitted the balance-sheet, duly audited, which showed the club to be in a good financial position, with a credit balance of £36 7s, and a membership of over 50. The Boxing Day meeting passed off successfully, showing a profit to the club. The amount of stake money paid away amounted £33 10-, being the largest amount ever previously paid out by the club. The takings at the booth, which was conducted by the club. amounted to £18 12s 3d, which after deducting expenses showed a profit of slightly over £5. The president stated that they had decided to recognise the services of their secretary. He had some extra work over the meeting in journeying to Mornington on the club’s business

in connection with the booth. On the motion of J C. Dyson and A. Clydesdale, it was unanimously agreed to vote the secretary an honorarium of 6 guineas in recognition of his services. In returning thanks the secretary said he did not expect to be so liberally treated. It was pleasant to know that his efforts have passed off successfully. If re-elected and the club decided to run a patriotic race meeting in aid of returned, wounded Australians, he would accept no honorarium in carrying out the secretarial work of the club for such a deserving cause. One of their brother committeemen and several members of the club were now on active service, fighting in the defence of their home land and the Empire, although far away some of them had been thoughtful and wrote enquiring about the club’s welfare. After discussion it was decided to hold a patriotic meeting in aid of returned, wounded Australians on a date to be fixed early in February in preference to Boxing Day *** VICTORIAN State School Children and War Relief Fund. Mr A. C. Witton, Accountant to the Victorian Education Department, and Hon Treasurer to the Departments Patriotic Fund reports £34,388 14s to date. The Australia Day effort alone brought in £4,604. The latter amount has been specially set aside for wounded soldiers in the State. A few particulars taken from the Education Gazette showing the amount contributed by scholars towards War

fund up to Aug 15th, 1915. The total amount collected to that date was £31,600 also 198,020 articles such as shirts, socks, handkerchiefs, mittens and balaclava caps were handed in for the use of our troops abroad. Schools throughout this district are credited with the following amounts, —Frankston, £17 1s 9d; Mornington, £19 4s 2d; Chelsea, £27 12s 11d; Cranbourne £56 14s 2d; Hastings £13 12s 6d; Sorrento £32 2s 0d; Somerville £8 16d 11d; Seaford £3 1d 10d Red Hill £8 1s 6d; Mt Eliza £6 0 7d; Mornington Junct. £3 13s 4d; Langwarrin north £5 7s 9d; Carrum Downs £11 15s 11d; Dromana £7 13s; Moorooduc, £9 1s 6d; Rosebud £12 8s; Pearcedale £36 15s 10d; Tyabb £10 3s 7d; Flinders £15 15s 7d; Balnarring, £21 16s 5d; Crib Point, £7 5s. For the past three weeks, an examiner from the Defence Department has been at work inspecting and stamping garments etc made by school girls, and lady teachers for our troops abroad, 42 cases containing hospital stores, shirts, socks, handkerchiefs, mittens and balaclava caps are now ready to go by the next available transport. In all, 198,020 articles have been received at the Depot from the schools. Of these 143,000 have been dispatched to Egypt. It is satisfactory to know that all this stuff has arrived safely and has been acknowledged gratefully. Captain John Lang of Henley fame writes:— “A quantity of goods from School 1604 Malvern was received by my Department at the Al Hayat Convalescent Hospital, Helouan, Egypt

beautifully clean clothes for our Australian wounded. The workers would have been fully recompensed had they seen the contentment of the men.” *** THE farewell social and presentation to the local volunteers took place on Friday evening last, after having been postponed a number of times in order to have as many of the young men present as possible. The efforts of the committee were in vain, however, in this respect, as only one of six put in an appearance. The names of the last batch were Messrs Laity, W. Lonsdale, E. Robinson, E. Stone, W. Hatch, and H. Russel. Each was presented with a handsome case of pipes, and although only Mr Hatch was present, relatives of the other young men took charge of their gifts, and will have same forwarded to their owners as soon as possible. The hall was very nicely decorated for the occasion, and a fair number of residents were present. The musical part of the programme consisted of the following items :-Overture, Mr Kinwood (piano), Miss L Slocombe (violin); song, Miss Jessie Longmuir; song, Mr A Powell ; song, Private F E Tubbs; song, (Ragtime) Mr J Carmichael; song. Mr P V Kerr; song, Mr S Chalwell ;Latest patriotic records by Mr H T Noble’s gramophone. The speakers during the evening were Messrs G G Cole, R Mair. H P Woodhouse, Cr Alden, and Mr MacLaurin.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Straight Outta Tyabb – The pink drink incident By Stuart McCullough HOW could I possibly refuse? My brother went right to the point – was I interested in seeing ‘Straight Outta Compton’ with he, his wife and one of my nephews on Friday night? But of course I was. While my appearance may suggest otherwise, at heart I remain a gangsta rapper, ready to bring the rhyme in a microphone fight at nary a moment’s notice. Granted, there are very few gangsta rappers who would use a word like ‘nary’ but there’s no harm in trying. Unless, of course, the term ‘nary’ might result in a rap-feud in which case I will steer well clear of ‘nary’ and find a less controversial way of putting it. Rap music is not everyone’s cup of tea. In fact, rap music is rarely associated with tea at all. While rap songs are known to reference a startling array of beverages, a soothing mug of Early Grey is never among them. I’d like to say that I understood rap music right from the outset, but that would be untrue. I really only began to appreciate it because my brothers did. The lyrics were offensive but it was authentic and vital at a time when so much music seemed to be part of a five-year corporate plan and wore spandex. Yuck. N.W.A.’s album ‘Straight Outta Compton’ begins with the following spoken-word declaration: ‘You are about to witness the strength of street knowledge’. It’s something Pink Floyd could never have said without everyone bursting into hysterics. It was a statement of intent on which the songs duly delivered. Granted, there

were contradictions. As someone in Tyabb, it was hard to reconcile the central conflict of gangsta rap – complaints of police harassment coupled with unfettered boasting as to lawlessness. What could not be denied,

however, was its underlying fury and passion. Now, twenty-five years later, it’s a movie. As I readied myself to sit through a two-hour biopic about the birth of gangsta rap, I prepared a mix tape to

play in the Volkswagen – it’s a fair old drive to Fountain Gate. As I travelled, I could not help but rue the fact that whilst the car had a demister and air conditioning, it lacked the hydraulic suspension system so beloved by rappers that makes the vehicle bounce up and down. I then wondered if, given the size of the vehicle, I threw myself up and down with sufficient vigour, I could achieve much the same effect. As I pulled into the rooftop car park at Fountain Gate shopping centre, I slowed, pulled the windows down and pushed the jams way, way up. The music was so loud that all the loose change I use for parking meters rattled. I could tell by the way shoppers shielded their children’s eyes and ears, people were impressed. As I turned to convey this indisputable fact to my sixteen-year-old nephew, I found that he had accidentally slipped down to the floor below the dashboard where no one could see him. Perhaps he was concerned about a possible drive-by. Nevertheless, it seemed to be a matter of extraordinarily bad luck that this should occur just as my rap-driving skills were on display. Once inside, we met up with my brother and sister in law. Like me, my brother is a repressed gangsta rapper. We greeted each other as we always do; with elaborate hip hop hand gestures before deciding to line up for food. Given that it was a Friday night, I was immediately anxious as to whether we might be able to secure a table. Granted, it’s hard to imagine Dr. Dre or Ice Cube ever worrying about such things, but that doesn’t detract from my broader commitment to

bringing the rhyme. I ordered at the counter before being shown to my seat. My brother, however, was less successful. When asked whether he wanted a drink by a sixteen-year-old malcontent who had declared that she was supposed to be on a break just as my brother approached the counter, he felt pressured to compensate for this by ordering a drink he didn’t really want. It’s something of a family trait. For some reason, we feel compelled to make waiters and cashiers happy with our order. It is possible, I think, to be too polite. It’s this same tendency that once resulted in my circling the IKEA car park for hours until my wife eventually made me get out so she could take over. As my brother sat down, bottle of pink citrus blend mineral water called ‘Agrum’ by his side, we both knew exactly what had just happened. Instantly, we both resolved to write a comprehensive ‘diss’ track that would teach both the cashier and the makers ‘Agrum’ a lesson. There is no better version of history than the one you write yourself. That former members of the group were involved in producing the movie was evident. It was also a reminder of how fleeting moments of artistic triumph can be. N.W.A.’s debut album was a groundbreaking classic, but it was all down hill from there after Ice Cube departed. Presumably he was aggrieved when he found pink mineral water on the band’s rider. But some of the music remains potent and powerful and still makes me happy. Once a rapper, always a rapper.

AN AUDIENCE WITH HIS GRACE “An Audience With His Grace” opened at The Gaiety Theatre on Wednesday, and Brendan Grace received a standing ovation from a thrilled audience...His gags have a great hit rate and delight a capacity crowd. After 44 years in showbiz, Brendan Grace still knows how to send them home smiling.” - Eamon Sweenie, The Irish Independent, 25 March 2015 Born in the heart of Dublin in 1951, Grace was raised in the inner city Liberties neighbourhood. His father Seamus worked as a bartender, an ambulance man and other odd jobs to keep the family going. However, like many Dubliners of the time, Grace eventually left school at the age of 15 to begin working. His first job was as a messenger boy, an occupation he often refers to in his live act. At the age of 18, Grace formed a band known as “The Gingermen” and toured throughout Ireland. During a gig one night, the band found themselves two members short and in an attempt to calm an anxious crowd, Brendan was thrust upon the stage to humour them. His wit and razor sharp observations of daily life in Ireland immediately won over the crowd and since then he has been selling out venues around the globe. Brendan has shared stages with many well known names such as Frank Sinatra who referred to Grace as “His man in Europe” and John Denver, among many others. In 1976, he penned the number one hit “Combine Harvester” which charted number one for both Grace and The Wurzels. The song was also later recorded by Foster & Allen. In 1995, Grace starred in “Moondance” and the follwoing year he appeared in the “Father Ted” episode “New Jack City” as Father Fintan Stack.

In November 2009, he released his best-selling autobiography “Amuzing Grace” which received critical acclaim. In 2007, he appeared as “Big Sean” in “Killinaskully” and in 2015 he starred in “The Gift”. An Audience With His Grace features some brand new material and some “old favourites” from his vast repertoire over the past 40 years including the brilliant school boy character “Bottler”. He has managed to attract a younger audience due to the content of his show being very down to earth and helped also through his hilarious appearance in Father Ted, where he played the part of a drinking, smoking, trouble maker extraordinaire, Father Fintan Stack. Join His Grace for an evening of high farce, mirth and music. An Audience With His Grace performs at Frankston Arts Centre on Friday 13 November 2015, 8pm.

How to make boring chores fun By Michelle McCullough I do my best to be a good role model for my children. I watch my language, I fake bravery when a spider enters my home uninvited and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve even stopped having chocolate for breakfast. When it comes to doing chores iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m failing in the role model stakes. The thing is, I hate chores. I hated them as a child, I hated them as a teenager, and I hate them even more now that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a wife and a mother. But I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to pass this negativity onto my children; I want them to enjoy chores. Plus, I figure if i get in early and make chores fun, by the time they are teenagers Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have myself a couple of live-in maids (thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how it works right?). So, in my quest to continue being a good role model Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come up with four ways to make chores are a little more fun for your little monsters. 1. Whoever said â&#x20AC;&#x153;many hands make light workâ&#x20AC;? clearly hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t folded laundry with two toddlers. However, you can use chores to nurture your little Einstein. For example, folding laundry is a great way to teach children to count, and to recognise different colours,

patterns and textures. Likewise, a trip to the supermarket can also be used to teach numbers, colours and different foods. 2. Every week the teacher at my playgroup puts on special â&#x20AC;&#x153;pack upâ&#x20AC;? music when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to tidy up all the toys. And every week 20-plus kids lose their minds trying to tidy everything away as quickly as they can while us parents stand around in awe. So crack out your boombox and see if it works for you! 3. Who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like a good oldfashioned competition? Especially when thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a chance to one-up your sibling at something exciting like making your bed! Try introducing some friendly competition into your daily routine. If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only one child in the house get out the stopwatch and try to beat the fastest time. 4. Rewarding your children for cleaning up their rooms may seem a bit controversial to some but personally I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see the problem. As adults we get paid to work so whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the difference? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not suggesting you run out to your nearest toy shop each time little Barry puts his smelly socks in the washing

basket, but offering a small incentive could help ease the pain of choring. Rewards could include two books instead of one before bed, getting to choose what you have for dinner or even a star on a reward chart. 5. If thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no way of escaping your chores then why not pretend to be someone else while you work. Kids have amazing imaginations so incorporating role play into lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more boring tasks is a great way to combine work with play time. 6. Many moons ago when I was a little girl, my family and I would make car trips a bit more interesting by telling stories. Each person would contribute a line to the story and we would continue this until we got to our destination. This form of storytelling can be applied to any situation, including doing chores. Not only will it make the time go much faster, but it will also allow your creative juices to flow. These tips might work for you (or they might create more work) but at the end of the day itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all about attitude. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re genuinely having fun, those pesky chores will be done in no time. Good luck!

At the Bendigo it starts with U.

McEvoy dominates in season opener PROVINCIAL By IT Gully LANGWARRINâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S highest ever run scorer, Simon McEvoy, turned back the clock on Saturday on the first day of the 2015-16 Provincial season, scoring an unbeaten 83 to guide his side to a shock win against Mornington. The Kangaroos, under the guidance of new coach Travis Campbell and assistant Jake Prosser, who returned from Pines, headed to the kennel with an inexperienced team which featured debutants Aaron Edwards and Mitch Bromley. It was a completely new-look team, without the likes of Danny Weare (retired), Michael Edwards (Tyabb), Andy Johnson (Carrum), Jake Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Atri (Carrum), Adrian Mack (rested), Mark Cooper (Warragul), Matt Davie

(Hawthorn-Monash) and Dwayne Doig (Cardinia) â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all of whom were in Langwarrinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best side last season. The Kangas need experience and leadership this season and Simon McEvoy provided it in spades â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Maccaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; actions speak far louder than words. His team bowled pretty well, led by teenager Andrew Smith, who pickedup 4/27, while Matty Prosser claimed 2/32. The Dogs set the Kangas a total of 154 for victory. Matt Foon top scored with 45 and Brad McDonald hit 32. In reply, McEvoy hit 13 fours in his unbeaten knock, while Matt Prosser scored 28 and Bromley 19. The Kangas got the runs with 11 balls to spare. Kurt Nestor was the pick of the Dogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bowlers with 2/8 from three overs. Former Moorooduc gun Bobby Wil-

Panthers on the prowl early DISTRICT By IT Gully PEARCEDALE started its new life in District cricket having an immediate impact on Saturday, beating Carrum by four wickets. The Lions were expected to be one of the teams to beat in District cricket after picking up new captain Andy Johnson and Jake Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Atri from Langwarrin and Tom Burgdorf from Seaford Tigers, while keeping the likes of Shaun Foster, Josh Dent and Liam Dobson. However, on Saturday in the season opener, the Lions were crushed. Shaun Foster made 45 and Corey Foster hit 23 to be Carrumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top scorers. Johnson failed with just seven. The Lions were bowled out in the 37th over for just 136. Former Pearcedale junior Shane Maggs returned to the Panthers from Casey and picked-up 4/20 from 6.4 overs. In reply, Pearcedale made 6/181 from its 40 overs. Brad Trotter opened with 53, Chris Dew hit 30 and Kaine Smith contributed 29. Red Hill had an early afternoon against Delacombe Park. The Parkers batted first and made just 78 from 37.4 overs. Nick Christides scored more than half of them with 41. Brent Martin was the best of the Red Hill bowlers with 4/11 while Glenn Collett opened with 2/21 from nine overs. In reply, Red Hill got the runs just two wickets down in the 19th over. Simon Dart scored an unbeaten 38 and Nick Shaw 22. Seaford had a day out with the bat, scoring a massive 4/219 against Mt Martha before their bowlers got to work and skittled the opposition for just 90. Paul Hartle wound back the clock and belted 91, Ryan McQueen smashed 65 and new recruit Morteza

Ali (Narre Warren) contributed 32. In reply, Chris Cleef tore through the Redsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; batting line-up, snaring 6/21, while Hartle rounded-out a sensational game personally with 2/17. Alex Mason top scored for Mt Martha with 34. Baden Powell recorded a solid victory against Flinders, winning by four wickets with two overs to spare. Recruits Matt Grayson (Carrum Downs) and Simon Parrott (returned from Cardinia) top scored for the Sharks with 54 and 47 respectively. Daniel Di Paolo, a new face in the Bravesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; outfit, was the best of the bowlers with 4/32, while English recruit Tom Wood snared three wickets. In reply, Wood then went to work with the bat for the Braves with 78, while Blake Hillman scored 44. Seaford Tigers picked up the 12 points against Boneo, winning in the final over of the day. Boneo batted first and scored 9/168. Ryan Jellie top scored with 53 and Daniel Coathup hit 37. Corey Hand and Ash Mills each took three wickets for the Tigers. Tigersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opening bat Anthony Joel then belted 14 fours and two sixes on his way to 94 to guide his side to victory. Chris Jobling took three wickets for Boneo. Main Ridge opened its season in fine fashion, getting the job done against Heatherhill. The Hills batted first, making 6/186 with Jake Theobald top scoring with 67 and Kristian Miller opening with 48. In reply, the Ridge hit 6/194 with three overs to spare. They were in some early trouble at 6/81, before Gareth Wyatt (64 not out) and Ed Aarons (55 not out) came to the rescue.

Mazda2 range expands with stylish sedan HAVING launched the new-generation Mazda2 hatchback in November last year, Mazda has bolstered the range with the introduction of a stylish sedan variant. The new model addition - which incorporates the award-winning â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;KODO - Soul of Motionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; design language - represents the first time since 2011 that Mazda has offered a Mazda2 sedan alternative. Available in Neo and Maxx grades, Mazda2 sedan joins the Neo, Maxx and Genki hatchback options. The entry-level Neo sedan comes with cruise control, Bluetooth, advanced keyless push-button engine start, ABS, DSC, ESS and rear parking sensors as standard equipment. In addition to these features, the mid-spec Maxx also debuts the lauded MZD Connect with seveninch display and multi-function commander control, reverse camera and 15-inch alloys. The sedan arrival also benefits those in the market for a hatchback, with Neo taking cruise control and rear parking sensors, while Maxx now has a reverse camera and MZD Connect. The range-topping Genki also gets LED headlamps, reverse camera and rear parking sensors. Smart City Brake Support is available as an option across the entire Mazda2 range. Following the introduction of a red interior colour pack option on the Maxx hatch, Genki also receives its own unique interior trim choice. Called S Pack, the package includes soft-touch off-white with white stitch-

ing on the centre console sides, the front door armrests and front decoration panel. The front door armrest panels are a high-gloss white and the seat colours include off-white and black with a leather and cloth trim. Smart City Brake Support is also included as part of this option. Like its hatch sibling, the Mazda2 sedan comes with a choice of two SKYACTIV-G 1.5 litre petrol engine types. The Neo, with standard-spec engine, offers 79kW of power and 139Nm of torque, while the Maxx has the more powerful high-spec option giving 81kW of power and 141Nm of torque. In a win for buyers, Mazda2 is one of the most economical in its segment. The high spec SKYACTIV-G 1.5 litre petrol engine with SKYACTIV-Drive automatic transmission sips as little as 4.9 litres per 100 kilometres, while the standard spec SKYACTIV-G 1.5 litre petrol engine with SKYACTIV-MT manual transmission uses just 5.4 litres per 100 kilometres. The sedan comes in eight contemporary exterior colours, with Titanium Flash Mica making its Mazda2 debut. Smoky Rose Mica is limited to hatch variants only. Mazda expects the sedan to make up 15 per cent of total Mazda2 sales. On sale now, both sedan and hatch start from $14,990 plus on roads. Call Mornington Mazda on (03) 5975 1111 to find out more, or visit them on the corner of Main Street and Nepean Highway in Mornington.
