Now you see him, now you don’t RED Hill artist Michael Leeworthy painted his cockatoo mural so fast that he sometimes appeared to be in four places at once, as this digital image shows. The mural, a feature of the Main Ridge Sustainability Day activities, Sunday 27 October, is a representation of bushland at Greens Bush which the artist’s walking group visited earlier that day. He used acrylic on weatherproof board for the mural which will one day hang in the Main Ridge Reserve. “The committee gave me free rein for the mural and so I chose scenes that we had seen earlier in the day,” he said. “People came up and helped me paint it and I encouraged them – especially my grandchildren Ellis and Delilah.” The artist, who has lived at Red Hill for 32 years, said the mural was his “way of giving back to the community” after being the beneficiary of grants from the Mornington Peninsula Shire over the years.

Budget confirms busy year Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au ADVOCACY, community connection and financial prudency were cited as features of Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s 2018-19 annual report released last week. The mayor Cr David Gill said a major council initiative over the past year had been the creation of an innovation and advocacy unit to help it “advocate effectively on behalf of the community”. He said this had enabled the shire and community to work successfully with Flinders MP Greg Hunt

to help secure about $170 million in election-related funding, budget commitments and election promises. “Other major advocacy initiatives include the Better Buses campaign, jet ski reform, more jobs through a marine industry precinct and drought proofing the peninsula through a major recycled water project proposal.” An example of the council’s commitment to community consultation was its climate change community engagement strategy and declaration of a climate emergency, Cr Gill said. “The strategy outlines our vision to become resilient to the impacts of climate change.

“The updated green wedge and biodiversity management plans also went through extensive public consultation.” Cr Gill said the focus on consultation meant the budget “includes the largest number of communityinitiated projects the shire has ever seen”. The mayor thanked the Mornington Peninsula’s 26,000 volunteers – “including the more than 2200 who work directly with the shire who help make the peninsula a great place to live”. Big ticket items reviewed in the annual report include: The $35.82 million Rosebud Aquatic Centre

whose main building is under construction and Somerville Recreation Centre, which opened in May. It is described as “one of the most significant community infrastructure projects that Somerville and the shire has seen… and a great result for our community and sporting clubs”. Other notable council achievements include the Green Wedge Management Plan and the review into waste, focusing on current operations and investigating alternatives to “promote avoidance, reduction, reuse and recycling and address the current crisis in recycling”. The council is “in a strong finan-

cial position with strong cash flows, reserves and a solid balance sheet,” the budget reveals. “The council has been able to respond well to the state government’s rate capping system and provide an increased surplus that has allowed more spending on capital works and services,” Cr Gill said. Capital works during the year of $58.7 million were the main driver in increased net assets of $21.1 million. The shire’s loan balance was cut to $12.1 million after principal payments of $3.7 million were made during the year.

Grants help community groups ‘thrive’ RED Hill Fire Brigade was a big winner at the Bendigo Bank’s grants and sponsorship evening, Tuesday 29 October. It received the largest donation: $25,000, which will allow it to provide room for a new type of tanker. On the night about 60 community groups received more than $250,000 between them from the Rye, Rosebud and Dromana Community bank branches. This second of the twice yearly grants and sponsorship evenings follows the first in May when $227,000 was shared among 50 groups. Grants and sponsorships were delivered to a diverse range of community groups, including sports, arts, environment and health and wellbeing. The Carolyn Chisholm Foundation received $10,000 for education and training programs covering tuition fees, in-class material, text books, uniforms and equipment. Boneo Primary School received $17,885 to buy computers and McCrae Yacht Club received

$25,000 for a program aimed at getting young people into sailing and promoting a healthy lifestyle. Community Bank chairman Vin Cheers, said: “It really is an incredible achievement we are only able to make thanks to the continued support of people like you who choose to bank with us. We simply couldn’t do it without you.” Rye, Rosebud and Dromana Community Bank branches of Bendigo Bank are committed to helping develop a thriving community, and give most of their profits back to the community, he said. Director Steve Robin added: “We know that to ‘thrive’ our community requires financial support, but it is so much more than that. We are committed to working with local groups and council to develop wellbeing solutions for a happy and healthy community.” Applications for the next round of grants and sponsorship will open in March with a presentation night planned for May. Details: See the bank’s website.

Happy customers: Chairman Vin Cheers, Red Hill CFA Captain Darrel Setter, and Red Hill CFA secretary Joanne Tyrrell accept a cheque for $25,000 from the Bendigo Community Bank branches. Picture: Supplied

Special day for Greeks at Rye THE Rye shopping strip had a decidedly Mediterranean flavour when members of the Greek community gathered to commemorate Ohi Day – the Day of No. Red Hill Greek Orthodox priest Father Eleftherios Tatsis led the ceremony at the Rye cenotaph, 28 October, which honours the courage of the small country in rejecting an ultimatum from Italian dictator Benito Mussolini during World War

II. Greece was then drawn into the war on the side of the Allies in 1941. Father Tatsis praised the courage of those who fought against the Italians and Germans in the conflict. An inscription on the cenotaph reads: “Dedicated to the Unknown Soldier and fallen Greek and Allied servicemen. Lest we forget. Rye RSL Sub-branch.” Pictures: Gary Sissons

Shire celebrates migrant contribution A MULTICULTURAL event at the Rosebud Shire offices, Wednesday 30 October, celebrated the successes of Mornington Peninsula Shire’s migrant population. About 50 guests and family members, from 13 countries, acknowledged and highlighted the contribution migrants have made to the social, cultural and economic development of the peninsula. The mayor Cr David Gill said immigrants had expanded our culture and introduced new ideas and traditions into their adopted country. “The resourcefulness, hard work and determination of people who came from so many other countries helped make the Mornington Peninsula an exceptional

place to live,” he said. “We are a more connected community because of our increased mutual understanding and the breaking down of barriers brought about by people in Australia’s immigration program after World War II.” Some at the function spoke about why they left their homelands: the boat trip; their beginnings at immigration camps, and their first jobs on the way to leading fulfilling lives here. Members of the Dowd family talked about the late-Bernard Dowd who developed clothing factories on the peninsula and helped many migrants find their first jobs. Mr Dowd was praised for his compassion and willingness to help others.

The mayor Cr David Gill introduced guest speaker and Flinders resident Zig Inge, who came from Latvia in 1949. Mr Inge spoke about the long voyage, and his early days working on the railways, before becoming a builder and developing the first retirement villages in Australia. His success story is renowned in Australian business. Ona Silas and her mother spoke about their family history and working with Bernard Dowd. All spoke of their appreciation and love of Australia in what was described as a “moving and eloquent account of immigration to Australia”.

You wouldn’t read about it... WITH a target of 2000 books to sell in one day the Red Hill Op Shop girls came up trumps by offloading 2026, Saturday 2 November. The $1200 they raised from the sale, in the hall next to the op shop, will go to Peninsula Home Hospice. Organiser Kerri Egan said 400 booklovers visited the aptly named Book Cave to peruse some very special tomes on offer. “The variety of books was extraordinary and it was lovely to see them being appreci-

ated,” she said. “We were fortunate with the high quality of donations and it’s fabulous they went to new homes and not landfill. It’s been a great outcome.” Ms Egan admitted she couldn’t resist a moment of in-house censorship: “I did throw out a whole batch of 50 Shades of Grey beforehand.” Those books left unsold will go to Mornington Lions’ January book sale at the Wilson Road community centre.

Long way to the top: Guest speaker and Flinders resident Zig Inge arrived in Australia from Latvia in 1949. Picture: Supplied

Following sage advice: Rye Primary School students wow the audience with their production of Be the Change last week. Picture: Yanni

Changing the world one play at a time RYE Primary School’s production of Be the Change was reportedly a huge success for all involved. Inspired by a quote from Ghandi: ‘Be the Change you want to see in the world’, the play evolved from a range of ideas contributed by students, parents and teachers. The bi-annual event featured students from Prep-Grade 6 who showcased their talents in the visual and performing arts. It featured lead actors, Drumbeat students, senior

school. Spark Youth Dance founder Alex Dellaportas choreographed a contemporary piece for past Rye students while the senior choir students sang. “Our school hall gets transformed over a few days into a really beautiful space that inspires our students to perform their best,” music teacher Natalie Parker said. “Art teacher Katie Wettenhall and parent volunteers headed by Elin Smith worked to have the props, sets

lum and prior learning. A nearby kindergarten and community members who support the school in various ways attended the matinee. Residents of Rye Sands at Japara aged-care facility also attended the matinees. Past students were involved in the costumes, face painting, choreography and dancing, and playing in the band. The Lions Club of Rye donated their time with all proceeds from the sausage sizzle going to the

and 3/4 choirs, a rockin’ school band and dancers. Every year level had its own scene and theme to portray. The play centred around five kids who climb a magical tree only to discover that the Future Earth land at the top is decrepit, polluted and corrupt. The children learned lessons from every branch on how they can change the world for the better. Be the Change included themes of life values and environmental awareness as well as direct links to the curricu-

and extra costumes ready in time. “We have professional sound and lighting from Audio Spectrum and Knoble Arts which assists our show to look and sound amazing.

MPs among the courtside action BONEO Tennis Club’s courts are back in action after their recent redevelopment in which new courts were developed and drainage issues fixed. Secretary Georgie Keach said the grand re-opening celebrated the recent works and improvements to the club which are completed just in time for summer. “It was wonderful to have our local

members support the club and get involved on the day,” she said. Nepean MP Chris Brayne added: “It was ace to be at the Boneo Tennis Club grand reopening last weekend at what was a great day for the club. “Being active and healthy is so important, and that’s why local sports clubs on the Mornington Peninsula do such a great job in keeping locals fit,

healthy, and involved in sport. “Tennis clubs like Boneo serve up a whole range of competitions to encourage young people to get engaged in sport. It also gives all sides of politics the opportunity to have a hit. Flinders MP Greg Hunt and I went head to head in a match that ended in a draw.”

Different approach to refugee freedom push SOUTHERN Peninsula Grandmothers for Refugees are sending freedom birds in packages to the MPs in Canberra. This is a different approach while still reminding our politicians of their responsibilities towards asylum seekers and refugees, the group says. “It is over six years that most of the refugees in off-shore detention [centres] have survived the incredibly harsh treatments and the difficult environments,” member Anne Renkin said. “And there is still no hope of a safe future for them. Our freedom birds represent hope and justice for refugees.” The group says the federal Medivac legislation was also being challenged

Like minds: Rupert and the mayor Cr David Gill see eye-to-eye on saving bees. Picture: Supplied

Rupert’s petition creates a buzz at council A SOMERS Primary School student has been a busy bee gathering more than 100 signatures on his petition to save the bees. Rupert, 6, made a formal presentation at Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s Tuesday 8 October meeting pleading for the council to guard against the poisoning of local bees. He was backed up by 120 signatures from peninsula school children and residents confirming they support his stand. Concerns about the safety of bees have been raised over fears DepartDECKING T/Pine 70x22 KD ACQ ........................... $2.70mt T/Pine 90x22 KD ACQ ........................... $3.50mt T/Pine 140x22 KD ACQ ......................... $6.25mt Merbau 70x19 Random ........................ $4.75mt Merbau 90x19 Random ........................ $6.50mt Merbau 140x22 Random .................... $13.95mt

Rupert and his parents met the mayor and CEO at one of the shire’s Meet-the-Mayor sessions where Cr Gill suggested he attend a council meeting to present the petition. Council moved that Rupert’s petition be presented to the council’s environmental protection unit for review and further comment.

ment of Health officers will begin widespread “fogging” of the peninsula’s bushland areas in the fight against the Buruli virus. It is feared bees will become collateral damage. The mayor Cr David Gill said it was “fantastic to meet such a young likeminded bee lover exercising his democratic right”. “As a bee enthusiast and regular speaker about native bees, I applaud Rupert’s initiative and commitment to protecting our precious bee population,” Cr Gill said.

A rally supporting the Medivac legislation was planned to be held Saturday 9 November in front of the State Library. “We think it is well and truly time for the government to change these cruel policies and practices towards refugees and to work towards finding safe places for these people, such as New Zealand,” Ms Renkin said. The group’s name change signals that most children are out of detention but there are many refugees under Australian Government jurisdictions who face detention, family separation, slow processing and no hope for the future, Ms Renkin said.

It’s not “Fake News”

Santa’s Place on the Peninsula is really leaving After nearly 20 years, Santa’s Place really is leaving Moorooduc. Santa’s Place has grown over the years to become a tradition for families at Christmas time to come in, relax, and check out the array of new season products from traditional, colourful and unusual. A ride on the tractor to choose a Christmas Tree is always a hit with the children. Santa’s Place has seen many well-known families from all walks of life as well as “Christmas Tragics” who just love everything Christmas. A few “scrooges” have also been dragged in to just sit in the coffee shop and enjoy the “serenity” of it all while their other halves shop (often sneaking a bit extra in their bags).

Santa’s Place can’t thank our regulars enough, some who have travelled from overseas, interstate and country areas every year. Your loyalty is greatly appreciated. We have seen a lot of tears since announcing our closure with people telling us they have been customers since we first opened, and remind us of things like our little fibreoptic and lighting room upstairs when fibre-optics were the new thing.

Christmas Trees Available

Don’t miss the opportunity to visit us here at Moorooduc for the Christmas Shop’s last season. Christmas trees will still be available in 2020, when a tractor ride will take you around for your last photo opportunity.

Be sure to leave your emails so we can let you know what is happening and also let you know our new location for the Christmas shop.

‘Quiet’ holiday just the tonic SOUTHERN Metro Division 4 had a “fairly quiet” Melbourne Cup weekend, according to Somerville Highway Patrol Sergeant David Collins. “There was no road trauma over the five-day period, which is a very good primary outcome,” he said. “Of the 4483 drivers breath-tested – up from 2400 last year – only 21 were processed for drink or drug-driving offences, down from 30 last year.” The tests were conducted as part of Operation Furlong, which took in Melbourne Cup activities as well as the Peninsula Cup day at Mornington Racecourse, Sunday 3 November.

Liquor thief wanted A MAN, above, alleged to have stolen four, six and 10 packs of spirits valued at $260 from peninsula liquor outlets “on multiple occasions” has a

taste for bourbon and rum. The raids occurred on 31 August, 8 September, and 3 and 25 October. Police said on some occasions the man has stolen liquor twice in the one day after changing his clothes. Anyone with information on the thefts or the identity of the man is urged to contact Senior Constable Leanne Marshall at Rosebud Police Station 5986 0444 or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report to crimestoppersvic.com.au

Police search for Ebony Healey

A DROMANA man has been charged with 11 offences, including burglary and theft, after allegedly stealing nine cars at Doncaster, Thursday 24 October. Manningham detectives arrested the man at Rhode Island, Patterson Lakes, Thursday 31 October. They allegedly recovered four of the stolen Subarus but five vehicles are still missing. The 41-year-old appeared at Ringwood Magistrates’ Court, Friday 1 November, and was further remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court in January. Meanwhile, a 43-year-old Dandenong man has been charged with theft and bailed to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 11 December after being found in one of the allegedly stolen cars at Patterson Lakes. The five missing vehicles are a

POLICE are seeking public assistance in finding missing teenager Ebony Healey. The 13-year-old was last seen at Hastings on Monday 28 October. It is believed she may be in the Bendigo area. Police and Ebony’s family hold concerns for her safety due to her age. Anyone who sees her is urged to call Hastings police 5970 7800.

ESCAPE – move quickly and quietly away from danger; If you can’t escape, HIDE – stay out of sight and silence phones, and TELL – call the police by dialling triple zero when it is safe to do so. In the event of a state attack Victoria Police will provide further safety advice. Government and emergency services are working hard to build a stronger and even more resilient Australia and to keep people safe and secure, police say.

Attack: what to do

So close to a fatality

ESCAPE, hide, tell: These three words are features of the government’s “public guidance in what to do in the case of an armed offender attack”. Although Australia is a safe country, we are still at risk from attacks in crowded places and we need to do what we can both to prevent and prepare for them, the warning says.

30 October. Fun nearly turned into tragedy, with the tree impacting just behind the driver’s door. The car disintegrated after the incident, prompting first responder Acting Sergeant Anthony Deason, of Somerville Highway Patrol, to assume the worst. “When I first saw the car I thought: ‘This has to be a fatality,’ he said. “It was a relief to find everyone was alive. “Later, when I found out the circumstances, I thought: ‘When are these idiots ever going to learn?’”

A FRANKSTON South man survived against the odds when his black Honda Integra, right, skidded and hit a roadside tree on Moorooduc Highway, last week.

Vehicles face airbag registration ban SPONSORED CONTENT HE Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries is urgently appealing to all car owners to check if their vehicle has a faulty Takata airbag. Failure to do so may result in more owners having their vehicle deregistered. FCAI Chief Executive Tony Weber said state and territory government traffic authorities were considering the deregistration of more vehicles fitted with faulty Alpha and critical airbags where owners had ignored repeated requests to have their vehicle airbags replaced. Car owners can avoid the potential deregistration of these vehicles by having the faulty airbags, which could result in the death or serious injury of vehicle drivers and passengers, replaced as soon as possible.

"Nobody wants to see car owners inconvenienced by having their vehicles deregistered, but it seems it is the only way we can convince some unresponsive owners to allow us to fix their cars," Mr Weber said. "This is a last resort action to ensure we track down owners of vehicles with Alpha and critical airbags who have ignored multiple appeals from manufacturers and government agencies." The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission recently announced that nearly 20,000 additional vehicles already under recall for faulty Takata airbags have now been reclassified by manufacturers as "critical." The critical classification places the vehicles in a high-risk category alongside Alpha-equipped vehicles. "The ACCC has warned vehicles fitted

with airbags listed as critical should not be driven and the FCAI strongly agrees with that warning," Mr Weber said. In Australia, one death and one serious injury associated with faulty Takata airbags have been recorded. At September 30, 2019 Australian car manufacturers have rectified faulty Takata airbags in more than 2.46 million vehicles, but there were 373,886 vehicles still subject to the national recall. These vehicles are located throughout Australia, particularly in outer capital-city suburbs and in regional and rural areas. To check if your vehicle is affected go to www.ismyairbagsafe.com.au and enter your vehicle's registration and state or territory, or text TAKATA to 0487 AIRBAG (247 224). ■ This is sponsored content for Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries.

ON THE COVER

A MASTERPIECE AMONGST THE MOONAHS MAKING a definitive statement in grandeur, this magnificent residence is set moments from Ryeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Back Beach and has been beautifully crafted to maximise full use of the 3877 square metre block. From the street a paved aggregate driveway weaves through landscaped grounds, culminating in a circular parking bay to the front of a three-car garage under the roof line of the home â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which in total measures a staggering 511 square metres (55 square). Underneath a high portico, the elegant foyer opens to fully-tiled hallway with a guest bedroom and powder room tucked around to the right as you enter. Across the way is a lovely formal lounge and dining room with a gas log fire set into a striking stone feature wall. Accentuated by soaring ceilings, at least double the standard height, the enormous family zone at the centre of the home showcases three excellent living spaces in addition to a handsome meals area and a spectacular kitchen that glistens with crisp white cabinets and gleaming stone waterfall bench tops; all nicely contrasted by vivid red splash backs and a suite of stainless-steel appliances including a wall oven and convection microwave. The dining area sits comfortably between a fantastic games room, awash with natural light from the high arched windows, and an equally bright home theatre that will both accommodate every relaxation and entertainment whim. If the action inside becomes too much there is a wide timber deck opening from the formal lounge at the front and a paved alfresco patio accessible through the dining room where you can soak up the tranquil peninsula surrounds. Up the sweeping staircase to an incredible sixth living zone which features airconditioning, richly carpeted floors and access to the Juliet balcony seen from the front of the home. Three bedrooms, all with built-in robes branch off from here and there is the main bathroom plus powder room, however it is the astounding master bedroom that is the real star attraction on this first floor. Setting the tone is the enormous ensuite with spa bath and a beautiful parents retreat is an astoundingly extravagant addition that elevates this master suite to six-star hotel class opulence.n

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Frankston football premiers entertained Compiled by Cameron McCullough ON Tuesday evening Mrs Parker, wife of Mr E. J. Parker, president of the Frankston Football Club, tendered a complimentary dinner to the premiers of the recent competition, at the Bay View Hotel. There was a representative gathering of players and members of the Club. Great care had been expended by the hostess in preparing for the occasion. The banquet hall was a blaze of color composed of flags and floral effects with an artistic blending of red and black, representing the victorious team’s colors. The Union Jack and Australian Flag appropriately occupied pride of place, and accorded perfectly with the sentiments of the guests. It is a noteworthy fact that not less than 14 players out of 18 are Returned Soldiers. Meeting on the evening of the first anniversary of the armistice gave added zest to the proceedings. The table decorations were in keeping with the other excellent appointments, and reflected great credit on these responsible for the work. Mr H. J. McCulloch occupied the chair, and he had on his right hand Mr E. J. Parker, the president, and on his left Mr W. Cain, captain of the premier team. The Chairman gave the toast of The King and the company rose, and sang The National Anthem. Mr Brierley presided at the piano. In proposing the toast of the Premier Team Mr W. W. Young said the task allotted him afforded him great

pleasure. The winning of the premiership by the Frankston Club was a cause of extreme gratification. While members of the club and its supporters were naturally jubilant at the victory gained, the players themselves accepted their honors with becoming modesty. The Frankston team had fought a great uphill fight, and had gained the premiership by sheer merit. They had started out practically a new team, many of the players being strangers to one another. It had taken time for them to settle down and work with a system. The result of the earlier matches proved this. Their ultimate victory was therefore all the more creditable. (Cheers.) He hoped that the coming years had still further honors in store for the Frankston club. (Cheers. ) Mr. J. A. Cameron on being called up to respond received an ovation mingled with cries of “good old Joker.” He admitted that the Frankston team had justly earned his victory. His further remarks indicated that the winning of the Peninsula premiership still left the successful team a long way short of perfection. Not till the last two or three matches, he said, did Frankston play anything like competition winners. Success only came when they pulled themselves together and developed something like “system”. His advice was to call out some of the old players and make room for the young men.

13 November 2019

“Some of us are too old”, he rather ruefully admitted, “my idea is that the best team is a youngsters team.”–Applause. Mr W. Cain in an excellent speech, proved that football is not his only forte. As captain of the premier team he thanked the “boys” who on the field had carried for him that proud distinction. It afforded him pleasure to think of how Saturday after Saturday the boys had taken their places, regardless of injuries and other disabilities, imbued seemingly with the great idea of keeping up the standard of the team and winning. (cheers) He had to pay special tribute to his friend “Joker” Cameron, who as vice captain had made the speaker’s duties comparatively light. (Hear Hear). The speaker also thanked the committee, patrons, and all supporters of the club for the loyal support extended to the team right through. He hoped the players would continue to strive to keep football at a high standard, and that the good feeling that had prevailed right through the season would continue. They were all proud of the honors won, and he hoped the ambition of all would be to still keep the pennant waving over Frankston, (cheers.) The toast of “The Hostess” was given by Mr C. Dalman. This was not the first time Frankston had been premiers, but he believed it was the first time in the history of the club that the president’s wife had entertained the premier team. (Cheers). He believed that one of the factors

that made for the success of the team was the interest displayed by the ladies, (Applause.) The present splendid banquet would long serve to revive kindly memories of Mrs Parker in the minds of Frankston Footballers, (Cheers.) The chairman in endorsing the foregoing remarks said that in his long experience he had never seen such an excellent dinner in connection with a football function. The toast was suitably acknowledged on behalf of Mrs Parker. Other speakers included Messrs Moon, C. Willox, Egan, Verney, Murphy, Bolger and the president. The singing of Auld Lang Syne terminated a most successful evening. *** THE first motor wagon load of new potatoes left Frankston on Wednesday night for the Victorian market.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Passwords of Eternal Damnation By Stuart McCullough I’LL admit I panicked. By which I mean I suffered something more than a momentary flood of adrenalin but short of frothing at the mouth; but it was panic, nevertheless. I had forgotten my password. In a world that requires a password for almost everything you do, this is a problem. When did passwords become so critically important? Honestly, you can’t so much as buy a pair of socks on-line without creating some kind of password that you’re expected to remember for the rest of your life. It’s unreasonable. In a mad scramble, I looked for a way out. The closest I got was a button that said ‘Forgot password’ but I’d already managed to do that. It could only make things worse. As I stared at the screen, waiting for either inspiration or lightning to strike, I began to wonder how I might begin my new passwordfree existence. Like people who choose to live a subsistence life off the grid in a tin shack in the middle of the bush, living on possum meat and coming to town twice per year to mail semithreatening letters to the Green Guide, I would become a perennial outsider; a maverick who chooses to rebel against the social mores and conventions in order to play by his own rules. Which sounds cooler than it should. There’s more to remember now. When I was a kid, the one thing you really had to commit to memory was your home phone number. I turned mine into a song that, after a couple of Bacardi Breezers, I am prone to performing to this day, whether I’ve been asked to or not. (And, to be honest, performing your old phone number is not something that anyone in their right or left mind is likely ever to request.) As a pre-teen show off, I mastered the whole phone number thing quite quickly but came unstuck when my parents selfishly moved house and I had to commit a new one to memory. I was then put to the test once more when the

world as I knew it was rocked to its foundations as the ‘059’ system was abolished and ‘3’ was added at the front end. Once more, I rose to the challenge. At a certain point, I had a card that gave me access to the wonderful world of ATMs. It pains me to say it, but I remember when ATMs first started appearing. We were visiting friends of my father’s in Wangaratta and we watched in wide-mouthed wonder from the car as he alighted to get cash from a machine. The future had arrived and we could see it on our way to dinner at a Chinese restaurant. These miracle cards meant you had to remember another number. A PIN number was top

secret information delivered to you in special, tamper-proof paper. To open it, you had to tear along the perforated edges and unfold it as though you were about to announce the winner for Best Supporting Actress. Once this critical information had been memorized, you had to immediately and securely destroy the information by eating the paper. Or, at least, that was my preferred approach. Remembering your PIN was the most important thing in the world. Failing to do so would bring humiliation and, worse still, a trip to the branch proper where you were subject to the unique degradation that was trying to prove to a total stranger that you were, in fact, you. That

is not as easy as it sounds. After a time, it was more a matter of muscle memory than anything else and, from time to time, I was left to stare at the keys as I tried to summon up my PIN number. Now everything demands a password. Even things that, in my personal opinion, cannot truly be considered to password worthy. Want to buy a pair of socks? Log in to you customer account. Like to pay a bill? Notwithstanding the pleasure that comes from parting with your hard-earned cash just to keep the lights on, you also have to come up with a password. Preferably one that you’ll remember for longer than it takes you to type it out in the first place. Worse still, the Internet is very judgmental. Passwords can’t just be passwords. They’re evaluated in terms of whether they’re ‘weak’ or ‘strong’. To be honest, it hurts my feelings when they claim that something I’ve spent the first part of three and a half seconds concocting isn’t up to scratch. There’s no pleasing them. Sometimes, they show you a code that you have to type in, only it’s like the letters are drunk and have been dropped from a great height, because they’re hard to read. My favourite, though, is when they make you click a box that says ‘I am not a robot’. I know that only a robot would ever be stupid enough to declare that they’re not a robot, so I always leave that one blank. Passwords accumulate over time. Like t-shirts or weeds in your garden. In a perverse way, they define us. After all, when all’s said and done, we are the sum total of usernames and passwords. I’m thinking about passing them on to the next generation. I want them to enjoy them after I’ve gone. Then, when the big day finally comes and I kick the bucket, I’ll doubtless ascend to the Pearly Gates to receive my eternal reward only to discover that it’s password protected. Damnation. Literally. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Dart game: Red Hill and Mooroduc’s clash was rained out, but not before an entertaining century by Red Hill’s Simon Dart. Picture: Andrew Hurst

Rain wreaks havoc on the round but not before some impressive totals By Brodie Cowburn

PENINSULA

A KNOCK of 98 from Nick Jewell helped Long Island to a comfortable win over Pearcedale last weekend. Pearcedale came in to bat first in the one day clash, and finished up at 8/143 from their 40 overs. Andrew Tweddle took 4/23 to help restrict Pearcedale to a low total. With Jewell in full flight, Long Island were able to reach their target with relative ease. They claimed the win with eight wickets and 18 overs to spare. At Ditterich Reserve, a stunning century from Damien Lawrence helped Pines get a win over Main Ridge. Lawrence came in as opener, and contributed to a brilliant 172 run second wicket partnership. Pines set Main Ridge a target of 235 to chase down, and defended it well. Main Ridge were not able to score at a quick enough rate, and finished at

4/113 at the end of 40 overs. At Bruce Park, Somerville claimed a win over Heatherhill, chasing down their total of 152 with 8 wickets in hand. Red Hill and Moorooduc’s clash ended up rained off, but not before Simon Dart managed to score an entertaining ton for the Hillmen.

DISTRICT

A HALF century from opening batsman Henry Dolphin has helped Crib Point to a win over Mt Martha. Mt Martha won the toss and chose to bat first. They found themselves struggling, and could only put 134 runs on the board before the expiration of their innings. Crib Point had little trouble chasing down that total, and ended up securing victory with five wickets in hand and 13 overs left to play. Delacombe Park also had similar fortune in their clash against Dromana, as they managed to chase down a total of 130 with 13 overs to play. 13 November 2019

Number three batsman Andrew Christides was Delacombe Park’s best, scoring a half century. Hastings’ match at home against Carrum got off to a strong start. They went in to bat first and put 192 runs on the board, with Luke Hewitt reaching a half century. Unfortunately for Hastings and Carrum, rain brought a premature end to their game. Rosebud and Seaford Tigers also didn’t get a result on a rain interrupted day.

SUB DISTRICT

TYABB secured an impressive win last weekend in a rain interrupted round of Sub District cricket. Tyabb played host to Rye, and got things started with a big 91 run opening stand. Opener Michael Edwards got things started on the right foot and scored a half century. Tyabb set a total of 8/200 off their 40 overs, which would prove to be too difficult a mountain for Rye to climb.

Jordan Baldes was Rye’s best with ball in hand, taking a five wicket haul. At the end of their 40 over innings, Rye were just under 70 runs short of victory. At Peninsula Reserve, Frankston YCW nabbed the win in a low scoring clash against Carrum Downs. The Stonecats were sent in to bat first and only put 71 runs on the board before being bowled out. Faced with the difficult task of defending their small total, YCW’s bowlers were impressive. Levi McLoughlin-Dore was influential, posting career best figures of 5/13 to help restrict Carrum Downs to just 44. None of Carrum Downs top order batsman managed to reach double digit figures. Playing on the road against Boneo, Ballam Park batted first and set a decent total of 186. With the weather starting to turn, Boneo looked to make quick work of it and score quickly. In the end, the rain won out and the match was called a draw.

Tootgarook and Balnarring also couldn’t fight through the weather, and had their clash called a draw. Skye and Seaford’s match was also rained off.

PROVINCIAL

MORNINGTON played host to Baxter on Saturday in a competitive clash. Mornington were sent in to bat first, and got off on the wrong foot when they lost opener Matt Foon for a duck. They recovered well, and ended up at 7/164 at the end of their 40 overs. Baxter’s top order put on a good show in response, with Dale Irving and Daniel Warwick falling just short of their half centuries. Baxter ended up victorious, getting the win with five wickets in hand and eight overs left to bat before stumps. Mt Eliza played well and put 180 runs on the board against Langwarrin, but couldn’t get a result as rain brought an end to the day. Bad weather also stopped play between Peninsula OB and Baden Powell.

Matt Cartwright rides first career winner HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou MORNINGTON-based apprentice jockey, Matthew Cartwright, rode his first winner in just his third career race at Swan Hill on Tuesday 29 October. Hopping aboard the Dean Krongoldtrained mare Miss Inception, Cartwright sat just outside the leader before kicking clear in the straight to win under hands-and-heels riding. The stable apprentice to his mother and grandmother, Leonie Proctor and Lyn Tolson, and son of former jockey, Rikki Cartwright, the up-and-coming hoop seemed destined to follow a similar path to his family in horse racing. But to score his first win so early in his career is a feat in itself. “I was over the moon to get my first winner so early and to get the opportunity off Dean to do it was great – there’s no better feeling really,” Mattehw Cartwright said. An avid motocross rider as well, the 17-year-old eventually got hooked into horse racing from watching his father Rikki race across the state. “I’ve been around the horses my

whole life and I just got more into it over time and began to ride trackwork,” Matthew said. “Because I was light it just pushed me even more into wanting to become a jockey because I love riding horses.” Cartwright, who comfortably walks around at 49.5kg, has been riding trackwork for the past three years and now also works for Ciaron Maher and David Eustace at Caulfield every Monday and Tuesday. The hoop said he’s obviously found riding in races different to riding trackwork, but with the more experience he’s having, the more comfortable he’s feeling under race pressure. “My first ride was at Yarra Valley over 1000m and it was great – I loved every bit of it,” he said. “We jumped well and wanted to roll forward but there were a few others that also wanted to, so we got caught wide throughout, but I had a good experience and had fun out there. “I’ve made a few mistakes but just the more rides and more experience I’m having, its just helping me to improve, so hopefully we can get another win on the board sometime soon.”

Mitchell eyes Russian opponent BLAIRGOWRIE boxer Jayde Mitchell will headline the recently launched National Boxing Series in its Melbourne debut at the State Basketball Centre, Wantirna, Saturday 23 November. Promoter Lynden Hosking said he was excited to launch the series into Australia’s “boxing heartland”. “This will be the first of three events held in Melbourne over the next 12 months with other shows in the series taking place in Sydney, Brisbane and Canberra,” he said. Mitchell, a world ranked super

middleweight, will fight former world champion Stanislav Kashtanov, of Russia, over 10 rounds in what’s being described as “one of the fights of the year in Australian boxing”. “This is a massive coup for the event that will have major ramifications for the winner,” Hoskins said. “With such a prominent fighter as Kashtanov this fight now takes on considerably more significance for Mitchell and will most likely result in a world title opportunity if he wins.” The concept aims to showcase Australia’s best young talent to a national TV audience televised live through Fox Sports. Hosking Promotions will team up with D & L Events, the promoter of Jeff Horn, to bring the series to life in Victoria. This comes after a successful co-promotion in August when Michael Zerafa upset the much-fancied Horn in front of 5000 people at the Bendigo Stadium. Tickets are available online through Ticketek.
