Picture: Gary Sissons

Giving ‘life’ to dead animals IT’S unusual to associate young boys with taxidermy, but don’t tell Xavier Noonan. The Grade 6 Tyabb Primary School pupil is so enthused by his craft that he’s decorated the walls of his parents’ house with a stuffed rat, mice, birds of all sorts, fox, duck, and a deer’s head.

“And we’ve got a lot of dead bodies in our freezer,” confided his mum, Kellie.

At the tender age of 11, Xavier has been practising taxidermy for nearly two years. “He has been passionate about animals since he was little and was always very good at art,” Mrs Noonan said.

“It was a taxidermy fox with a duck in its mouth at a friend’s house that got his attention a few years ago and he has been crazy about it ever since.”

Land buy fuels port activity Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au LAND bought for a fuel storage and distribution depot is the first step towards the realisation of state government plans for the Port of Hastings to be increasingly used as a “bulk” port.

An eight hectare site in Bayview Rd has been bought by Puma Energy, a relatively new player in Australia’s fuel industry.

The company already has “seaboard” terminals at Brisbane, Mackay

FREAR GE

and Townsville, with a fourth being built in Perth.

It is understood Puma paid $2.2 million for its Hastings land which will be developed as a fuel storage depot at a cost of up to $120 million by Australian Fuel Distributors.

It has been suggested that ships bringing fuels to the depot could use Esso’s wharf at Long Island Point, although a spokesman for Esso on Monday had no knowledge of Puma coming to Hastings.

The development would also add

significantly to the number of large ships entering Western Port. There are about 50 expected this year, well down on the hundreds of a decade ago.

If built, the new storage and distribution depot will be the first port-related development at Hastings since the previous state government’s plans for a container port at Hastings were scrapped when it lost office last November.

The current government’s policy of leasing the Port of Melbourne for 50 years and its preference to eventually

develop a container port within Port Phillip has seen staff numbers at the Port of Hastings Development Authority cut to 14, with more tipped to go by December.

Puma, whose Australian headquarters are in Fortitude Valley, Brisbane, describes itself as “a new breed of vertically integrated midstream and downstream oil company”.

It started its Australian operations in 2013 after buying Ausfuel Gull, Matilda, Neumann and Central Combined Group “making us the largest

independently-owned fuel company in the country”.

Although yet to open service stations in Victoria, Puma says it has more than 270 retail sites and 20 depots across Australia, with its transport arm delivering more than 1.5 billion litres of fuel products each year.

While details of Puma’s move into Hastings have been kept under wraps pending finalisation of the land deal The News understands talks have been held with the Port of Hastings Development Authority. Continued Page 4

Neighbours may bid to buy lane David Harrison david@mpnews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire councillors have agreed to sell off another piece of surplus property – this time a “laneway� off Myers Rd, Balnarring that, technically, it does not yet own – for $22,000.

A report to council stated that the 12.67 metres wide by 713.7 metres long strip of land was designated as a road in the early 1900s subdivision.

The proposal resulted from a request by the owner of 7 Turners Rd, Balnarring, to buy the land. The “laneway� runs north from Myers Rd, between properties at 234 and 238 Myers Rd. It abuts the eastern boundary of the Turners Rd property, which could use it as a second entrance.

Purchase of the land could become a bidding contest – at $22,000, the 9042.5 square metres of land is priced at some $2.43 a metre. It could appeal to at least two and possibly three adjacent property owners.

The map in the council agenda does not make clear how many properties adjoin the “road� or the precise location of the 7 Turners Rd property boundary. This is partly because the agenda map does not extend all the way to Turners Rd. A recent aerial photo of the area shows the full 7 Turners Rd property and the various buildings it contains. A 2009 “cadastral� (property boundary) map, which purports to show every property boundary on the peninsula, shows property boundaries that differ from those indicated on the agenda map.

An old subdivision map of the area was also not helpful beyond showing the road. But it in-

dicated that significant boundary changes have taken place over more than a century.

The officer’s report stated that the land is unconstructed, zoned Green Wedge “and subject to an Environmental Significance Overlay�. “Preliminary enquiries indicate that there are no underground assets in the laneway. Internal comment to the proposal has been sought in relation to traffic and drainage issues. No objections to the proposal were received,� the report states.

The title to the laneway was not currently in the shire’s name, “but will vest in council on its discontinuance prior to any sale. As part of the original subdivision a 20 centimetre (1 link) strip inside the eastern boundary of the subject land was excluded from the ‘road’ designation.�

It was assumed that this was to preclude access on to the laneway from the properties to the east of the laneway. “Advice from the Titles Office is that the laneway constitutes a ‘road’ on the plan of subdivision and that if it is to be discontinued and sold the 20 centimetre strip of land should be included as part of the process to vest the land in Council.� The sale price had beeen assessed at $22,000, “inclusive of GST. The applicant has also been advised that costs incurred by council in carrying out the statutory process will be payable up to a maximum of $5000�.

Fifty-plus meeting SOUTHERN Peninsula 50+ Club will hold its annual meeting at the new rooms, 121 Ninth Av, Rosebud – the old Rosebud Senior Citizens Building – at 2pm, Tuesday 18 August. Members and guests welcome. Details: Secretary Lyn Straton 59811564.

Fuelling expectations: Puma Energy’s purchase of land in Bayview Rd, Hastings, has heightened hopes of more port-related development even though the state government has dropped plans for a container port. Picture: Gary Sissons

Puma moves for fuel depot at Hastings Continued from Page 1 Asked to comment on Puma’s plans Port of Hastings Development Authority CEO Mike Lean reiterated the government’s plans and the suitability of “3500 hectares of port zoned land� being “attractive to a number of businesses who trade in bulk commodities�. “The government has a very positive agenda to increase trade at the Port of Hastings and the authority is being proactive in supporting the government’s policy,� Mr Lean said. “Part of this is having discussions with potential customers about the natural benefits of using the Port of Hast-

DIAMOND DENTURE STUDIO

ings for their businesses.�

Mr Lean said the vision for the port was, in part, for a “vibrant and growing port, facilitating continued growth and development of existing and new bulk trades in a sustainable manner�.

He said potential new customers to the port would have to comply with regulatory requirements “before any development can take place�. “These regulatory processes can take some time to complete and there is no guarantee that a project will proceed until approvals are granted,� Mr Lean said. “Even post approvals, a large number of factors come into play to deter-

mine if a project will proceed or not.�

Objections to increasing the storage of fuels within the port area of Long Island Point have previously centred on the absence of an alternative to Bayview Rd if access is prevented in an emergency.

Although unaware of Puma’s plans for Hastings, Cr David Garnock said “it will be good if it brings jobs�.

He saw no problem with approval being granted as the land was already designated industrial with other plants nearby.

Puma Energy did not respond to calls for comment.

Workers refuse to shift Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au ABOUT 50 Esso workers at the company’s Hastings plant at Long Island Point are taking industrial action in opposition to longer shifts, roster changes, and staff cuts.

The workers are covered by an enterprise agreement covering Long Island Point, Longford, and the Barry Beach marine terminal.

An Esso spokesperson on Monday said the longer working roster – 14 days on and 14 days off – “is actually for the workers at our offshore facilities – not Long Island Point”.

“Under the most recent offer we made to the workforce the current seven day on seven day off roster was retained, but we added an option for a 14-day on 14-day off roster on a voluntary basis,” he said.

Staff at Long Island Point now work a 35-hour week Monday to Friday and a nine-day fortnight.

But members of the Amalgamated Metal Workers’ Union and Electrical Trades’ Union fear the issues will jeopardise hard-fought working hours, conditions and safety.

The ETU’s Peter Mooney said while workers covered by the existing EBA could volunteer for the longer shifts – or remain on the existing seven-day roster – Esso was stipulating that “any new hires go straight onto it”.

“Our view is that, if this goes ahead, everyone will be forced onto it eventually,” he said.

“And, come the next EBA, it will be a fate accompli. When you have

cracked the egg you have got it.”

Mr Mooney said other concerns were proposed cuts to shift manning.

“Our members are concerned about how they are going to handle an emergency,” he said.

Another point of difference is Esso’s proposed right to change shift hours unilaterally, regardless of long-standing convention.

“Our members and their families have built their lives around regular shift hours and, to throw this all away, is overwhelmingly opposed by our members,” Mr Mooney said.

Workers have responded with protected strike action, including bans on overtime, call-outs and stoppages, since a breakdown in the 11-month negotiations over a new workplace agreement.

In retaliation, Esso has locked out the workers with a notice which requires them not to work for two hours each day “consistent with the timing of notified protected industrial action from the unions”, the spokesman said.

This affects the 50 members at Long Island Point covered by the AMWU and ETU. The Esso spokesman said the company “had been working cooperatively with our workforce and their representative unions in good faith … with the aim of reaching a timely and mutually beneficial agreement”.

“This has included putting forward a generous wage increase, significantly above current CPI, in exchange for important productivity improvements to help prolong the operating life of our operations and associated em-

ployment. Most of the improvements are accepted industry practice,” the spokesman said.

He criticised the indefinite protected industrial action – “with options for up to 22 different work ban actions, including stoppages of up to five hours each day, as well as bans on the performance of some types of work and overtime”.

“However, the way in which this industrial action has been undertaken has been sporadic in nature, with not all bans and stoppages applied, with stoppages being withdrawn at the last minute in some cases, and in other cases with little notice provided to Esso in advance of when stoppages will occur, in order to maximise the disruption to our business.

“The continued uncertainty has made it difficult for Esso to plan and execute a range of maintenance work and in turn this has delayed some project work, but, more importantly, has impacted on Esso’s ability to adequately plan and execute preventative maintenance work.”

Mr Mooney said the union “calls on Esso to accept the ballot result and to recommence negotiations with its employees in good faith”.

“They are seeking to attack our working conditions in general and yet we have had ‘no’ votes of up to 98 per cent by our workers. These are massive votes against them.

“We are disappointed that Esso has chosen an escalation of hostilities over sitting down and resolving the issues in dispute through sensible discussions with unions.”

Tea to help needy families MONEY raised through a morning tea has given a healthy start to a new fund being set up to help needy families

by St Joseph’s Primary School, Crib Point. Prolific parenting book author Michael Grose spoke at last Friday’s event to launch the Helping Hands in Our Community fund. Money from the fund will go to families associated

with the school and in the broader community, St Joseph’s principal Gabrielle Espenschied said. Raffles, cake stalls and other means will be used to raise money that will be held in the school’s Parents and Friends account, with recipients been chosen by Ms Espenschied “after recommendations from the committee”.

Devilbend run’s a family affair RUNNERS from across the peninsula are in training for the Devilbend Fun Run, Sunday 9 August – such as the Haugen family, of Moorooduc, pictured. They have been making the run an annual event for the past four years.

Peder, Linley and their three children (pictured) take every opportunity to train in the Devil Bend Natural Features Reserve area, near where they live.

A continuing aim of the Mornington Peninsula Athletic Club, which organises the run, is to build community involvement, family participation and encouragement of all runners – not just those at the front of the field.

“The Devil Bend Run is now in its 41st year, and once again we are supporting local groups, such as the Balnarring Lions Club and Frankston Men’s Shed,” race organiser Richard Does said.

“Local businesses and volunteers are on board, and returning runners and families,

like the Haugens, continue to make our run a popular local event every year.”

Last year 500 local runners participated.

Each Sunday morning the Haugens take a break from their schedule of work, school and team sports to devote time to run together – And enjoy a family breakfast afterwards.

Their advice to first timers or families considering running, is: “Enjoy every moment. We love the family atmosphere and enjoy running together in the various events.”

Medallions are presented to all finishers, as well as medals/prizes for category placegetters. The Under 10s enjoy sack races. There will be a new Teams’ category this year.

Festivities and warm-ups start 8.30am, with the runs kicking off from 9am.

Properties on market to pay yoga debts Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au CREDITORS have so far lodged claims of $2.334 million against Shiva Yoga Inc, which went into voluntary liquidation in April.

The organisation’s main assets are three houses in Mt Eliza, two in Petrel Av and one in Clendon Close.

The properties are near the Shiva School of Meditation and Yoga, headquartered on a much larger property in Tower Rd. However, the residential ashram in Tower Rd surrounded by carefully tended gardens around an ornamental lake is owned by Shiva Yoga’s former spiritual leader, Russell Kruckman, also known as Swamiji and Swami Shankarananda.

Paul Burness, of liquidators Worrells Solvency & Forensic Accountants, said on Thursday that the two Petrel Av houses were being marketed by real estate agents ConleyLUFF, with one priced at $525,000-$575,000 and the other at $500,000-$550,000.

Its mortgagee, the Bendigo Bank, is handling the sale of the more valuable Clendon Close property.

Mr Burness said Shiva Yoga “has very little cash” and the net funds from the sale of the three properties would go towards clearing up outstanding debts and claims.

He said the Clendon Close property had a mortgage of $800,000.

Mr Burness said Shiva Yoga Inc had paid for extensions to the Tower Rd ashram – owned by Mr Kruckman

For sale: One of the two properties being offered for sale by ConleyLUFF real estate as a result of the volutary liquidation of the Shiva School of Meditation and Yoga, Mt Eliza.

– “for which in due course we’ll seek repayment”.

Financial records seen by The News show that show $1.38m has been spent improving the ashram building and lists Swami Shankarananda as having loaned the organisation $373,508. “Retained earnings” of $2.9m were shown

for the year ended 30 June 2014.

been lifted, according to Mr Burness.

St Kilda lawyer Angela Sdrinis is also preparing a claim on behalf of a number of women who claim to have been victims of sexual misconduct by Mr Kruckman while attending the ashram.

Mr Burness said he has communicated with Ms Sdrinis but as yet has not received any claims on behalf of her clients.

When announcing its appointment in April, Worrells issued a news release that quoted Mr Burness as stating “I am cognisant of the allegations against the ashram and would be dealing with all potential claims as part of the liquidation process”.

Ms Sdrinis has previously told The News she wants to settle the claims out of court.

However, the allegations of sexual assault by Mr Kruckman continue to be investigated by the Seaford-based SOCIT (Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Teams).

While confining her claims to women making allegations of sexual impropriety against Mr Kruckman, Ms Sdrinis said she had spoken with other men and women formally associated with the ashram in regards to unpaid wages; taxation; whether “people were volunteers or employees”; donations; and donated works.

Mr Burness remains hopeful that tax concessions granted to Shiva Yoga Inc will not be withdrawn by the Australian Tax Office.

“At this stage they [the ATO] seem satisfied and the organisation is still on

the [exemption] register,” he said.

If the tax exemptions were withdrawn the amount of money available to pay out Shiva Yoga’s creditors could be diluted further by it having to pay capital gains tax.

A spokesperson for the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission (ACNC), which advises the ATO on the suitability of an organisation to receive tax exemptions, said that if revoked tax liabilities could be backdated to 2012.

This was confirmed last week by an ATO spokesman: “Due to secrecy provisions in the taxation legislation, we are unable to provide specific information on individual cases. If an entity’s tax concession status is revoked and that revocation is backdated, the ATO is able to seek payment of taxes due from the date of that revocation. The taxes likely to be affected are income tax, including refund of franking credits, and fringe benefits tax.”

Shiva Yoga has been seen as a notfor-profit and has been granted a tax concession by the ATO, GST concession, FBT rebate and income tax exemption.

Mr Burness said he had specialist tax advice to effect that the tax exemptions should stay.

He is now awaiting delivery of “last year’s audited financials”.

Relations remain strained between those still aligned with the ashram and many who have left disillusioned after revelations in December 2014 of sexual improprietry between their guru and many of his women devotees.

Taxidermy is best done when the animals and birds are fresh – meaning there is little smell – and the waste goes into plastic bags and into the bin. “Xavier recently got a licence to preserve native Australian animals that are found dead that would otherwise not be allowed to be touched because they are protected,� Mrs Noonan said.

Fame is already calling: he recently featured on Channel 31’s Antiques with Attitude program and is now on their season two introductory promotion.

A “career� highlight has been a personal tour of the taxidermy department of Melbourne Museum. This came about after they advertised for a taxidermist which, undeterred by his tender years, Xavier applied for only to be knocked back. “They were very impressed by him and took him on the tour which he found fascinating,� his mum said.

For a look at Xavier’s skills visit the Vintage Shed and Tyabb Packing House, in Mornington-Tyabb Rd, Tyabb.

FRANKSTON line commuters face short-term travel pain for long-term gain with sections of the railway tracks set to be closed for weeks on end while level crossings are removed.

Eleven level crossings along the Frankston line are earmarked to have their intersection between road and rail separated to stop traffic delays and allow Metro Trains to eventually run more train services.

The Bentleigh, Ormond and Mc-

Kinnon stations will be demolished and rebuilt from November next year and are expected to reopen in February 2017. Trains will run between Frankston and Moorabbin stations during a planned 34-day line shutdown near the three stations.

Passengers heading into Melbourne will be forced to take buses from Moorabbin train station to Glenhuntley station and also make a swap to bus travel on the way back from Melbourne.

The Level Crossing Removal Authority, tasked by the Labor state government to oversee the level crossings

removals, has admitted there will be “significant disruption� at every one of the 50 level crossings to be removed over the next eight years across the state’s rail network.

Labor has promised to separate 20 road and rail intersections during its first four-year term in government.

Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan says the disruption is necessary to deliver safer and more accessible train stations and ease traffic snarls at level crossings. “We’re getting on with the job of removing these congested death traps to reduce congestion, save lives and

allow us to run more trains.�

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

The Andrews government has not yet confirmed when the other eight Frankston line level crossings are due to be removed, forcing further rail line closures while works are carried out.

Daniel flies high MODEL aircraft enthusiast Daniel Arapakis finished third in the junior category and 22nd outright in the 2015 model aircraft world championships in the Czech Republic.

He was competing in the Australian team which finished second in the team event among 20 participating countries and 50 pilots. The Australian team consisted of three senior pilots and one junior at the event held during the July school holidays.

Daniel, of Mornington, was the youngest entrant but this didn’t stop him recording his personal best times in official practice with 56.2 seconds – one second off the world record. “I was pleased with where I came although I would have preferred to come in under 22nd placing,� he said. “I put in a lot of effort and it was very exciting.�

A member of the Western Port Model Aircraft Club, Crib Point, Daniel flies F3D planes, one of the world’s fastest remote control planes, hitting a top speed of 350kph around a 400 metre pylon course. It has three left-hand turns per lap and is shaped ike an isosceles triangle. Ten lap races are completed in about one minute.

The world championship race is held every two years. This year it was at an airport at Olomouc, about 250km east of Prague towards the Polish border.

Podium place: Daniel Arapakis with dad Andrew, alongside other model aeroplane competitors from Sweden and Guatemala.

Amnesty International: Labor backflip on turnbacks ‘dangerous’ Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au A LABOR Party vote to support asylum seeker boat turnbacks if it wins back government has been slammed

by Amnesty International.

Amnesty International Mornington Peninsula branch spokesman Kevin Bain criticised Labor and opposition leader Bill Shorten’s move at the party’s annual national conference last month to fall into line with the Abbott government’s boats turnback policy.

Mr Bain has presented several petitions in recent months to Liberal federal government ministers Bruce Billson and Greg Hunt in Dunkley and Flinders respectively protesting against the Abbott government’s “inhumane treatment” of asylum seekers.

“Boat turnbacks are a recipe to violate rights and endanger lives,” Mr Bain said.

“People are entitled to have a proper asylum review process and the question is ‘turn back to where?’.

“We have a responsibility to protect and not punish people for seeking asylum. To promote turnbacks is one of the biggest ethical distortions in our society.”

Federal Labor MP for Isaacs Mark Dreyfus said the opposition “cannot

ignore the thousands of people who have died at sea trying to seek asylum”.

“Provided it can be done so safely, a future Labor government reserves the option to turn back boats at sea to discourage people smugglers from risking the lives of asylum seekers at sea, in compliance with the Refugee Convention.”

Mr Dreyfus, a non-voting delegate at the weekend Labor conference, said a Labor government “would remove the Abbott government’s cruel and ineffective temporary protection visas and its militarisation of the transfer of asylum seekers”.

“Labor will not demonise asylum seekers with the inflammatory and ignorant language of the Abbott government. Instead Labor will bring transparency to the process of seeking asylum.”

Mr Dreyfus said Labor will double Australia’s annual refugee intake to 27,000 by 2025.

Mr Bain said the major political parties are “compromising some of our fundamental human values” and this will damage Australian society in the long term.

“If all countries did this [turnbacks] the United Nations Refugee Convention would collapse and the implications for that are not positive for Australia or the whole world.”

Shire out to please its customers THE reorganisation of Mornington Peninsula Shire continues under the guidance of CEO Carl Cowie. About 330 staff last Thursday were invited to a briefing by Mr Cowie at Morning Star Estate, Mt Eliza, with many looking over their shoulders wondering about the ongoing security of their positions.

“The news is that there is really no news. The only upshot is that the customer service is going to be better,” a staff member who did not want to be identified told The News.

The same person said many staff had been looking forward “to the change a new CEO would bring after 15 years of [former CEO] Michael Kennedy” but were now feeling disillusioned and fearful for their jobs.

As reported in The News (“CEO details shire shake-up, jobs” 28/7/15) Mr Cowie says he had “no target” for staff numbers, although 19 positions have been made redundant.

The mayor Cr Bev Colomb issued a news release stating that councillors are supportive of the changes being made

by Mr Cowie.

Lunch tales from ‘Hanging Judge’

By Peter McCullough JOHN Schultz, one of the greatest ruckmen to ever play Australian Rules football, spoke at the second Hastings Football Club president’s lunch at the Hastings Club before the match against Red Hill on Saturday 1 August.

Players and supporters heard former Dog Schultz interviewed by Doug Ackerly, author of the definitive biography of Hastings and of Essendon legend, John Coleman.

Schultz joined Footscray in 1958 after playing one season of senior football with Boort. He was considered a “gentle giant”, known as much for his fairness as his brilliance. The effective knock ruckman was acclaimed for his good tackling, elegant marking, and

fair bumping. He was never reported in his 188 games with the Bulldogs.

Schultz won the Brownlow Medal aged 21 in 1960 by one vote from Fitzroy’s Kevin Murray. He won Footscray’s best and fairest award five times and, in 1961, was the Bulldog’s best player in the losing grand final to Hawthorn.

He played for Victoria 21 times and was an all-Australian in 1961. In 1996 Schultz was inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame with the citation: “Rucking giant who never let the side down. Set the standard for the modern ruckman.”

Schultz played his entire VFL career under the great Ted Whitten and, although having very different personalities, were great friends.

29, Schultz was made an honorary member of the VFL/AFL Tribunal on which he served for 25 years. This role led to former teammates and opponents bestowing on him the title “The Hanging Judge”.

His first hearing followed a particularly rugged Carlton Collingwood game. On arrival at Harrison House he discovered that Collingwood supporters had erected a team banner across the entrance. After he dodged around that Schultz had the uncomfortable experience of arbitrating on the misdemeanours of four former opponents from each club, including the formidable John Nicholls.

Hastings Football Club’s John Watson also spoke at the lunch of his 60 years as player and administrator at the club.

Abalone, lobster ‘poachers’ caught THREE men allegedly poached 80 abalone and a rock lobster at Sorrento back beach last week.

The daily recreational limit for abalone is five a person – when the season is open. However, the recreational abalone season is now closed.

Mornington Fisheries officers received a tip-off on the 13FISH hotline

about the alleged poaching, fisheries officer Heath Cameron said.

The officers watched “for several hours” as two of the men allegedly dived in a bay for abalone and used a kayak to carry the fish to a third man on the beach.

Fisheries Officers later intercepted a vehicle and uncovered 80 large abalone

and a female rock lobster in berry (with eggs). The taking of female rock lobster in berry is prohibited and the season for female rock lobster is also closed.

A 32-year-old Point Cook man, a 32-year-old Tarneit man and a 58-yearold international visitor were interviewed by Fisheries officers who also seized their diving equipment, includ-

ing the kayak.

Two of the men will be charged on summons for a number of alleged offences including taking more than twice the catch limit for abalone; taking abalone in the closed season; taking rock lobster in closed season; and taking rock lobster in berry.

Mr Cameron said this was “good ex-

ample” of public support and vigilance to assist in protecting Victoria's marine fisheries resources.

“Anyone who sees suspicious fishing activity is encouraged to call 13FISH – or 133 474 – anytime,” he said.

For information about fishing rules and regulations visit vic.gov.au/fisheries or call 131 186. Stephen Taylor

Poised at Police Point

Happy Sorras: Cr Tim Rodgers and Cr Hugh Fraser with Sorrento Community Centre chair Helen Gleeson and deputy mayor Cr Graham Pittock at the opening of the refurbished Sorrento Community Centre. Picture supplied

TIM Rodgers said Mornington Peninsula Shire was ready to spend money on its Police Point precinct next to the quarantine station and would not wait for the state government to come up with a new plan.

“Point Nepean with its historic quarantine station was given to Victoria by the commonwealth under a 2004 deed of trust. At the same time, the commonwealth ‘made over’ 17.5 hectares to the shire as Police Point Shire Park,” he said.

“We’ve set aside money to renovate the last two of six historic cottages at Police Point as well as historic landscaping works. Three cottages are being used for respite and one for an arts program. We will establish of a permanent council board to oversight Police Point.”

Renovation of the first four cottages was the shire’s first “community capital project” – a combination of voluntary and paid labour as well as donated and discounted materials that saw the job done for well under full commercial cost.  Sorrento Community Centre’s improvements include converting the old stage into a meeting area and a hall into a lounge area, new heating and cooling, and improved entrance and staff area. The centre provides several meeting spaces, a sports stadium/hall, computer room and arts room. It hosts maternal and child health, and early childhood learning sessions. The shire has also set aside $250,000 to renovate the sports pavilion.

Mike Hast

State slammed over Point Nepean ‘inaction’ Mike Hast mike@mpnews.com.au NEPEAN Ward councillor Tim Rodgers has criticised the state government for axing the Point Nepean quarantine station development proposed by Point Leisure Group.

During a speech at the recent opening of the $250,000 renovated Sorrento Community Centre, Cr Rodgers said the government was not “doing its bit” at Point Nepean.

“The refurbished Sorrento Community Centre with its large sporting hall is an asset for the whole of the Nepean Ward community – Blairgowrie, Portsea, Rye and Sorrento townships – and we may also get a new township for

the community, Nepean township at Point Nepean quarantine station, if the state government manages to sort out its own mind as to what to do with this fantastic but neglected asset,” he said.

Late last week Cr Rodgers told The News the Point Leisure Group proposal “had a lot of merit”.

“It would be good for the state government to tell us how it will enliven the quarantine station precinct to the same or similar extent to that proposed

by Point Leisure Group,” he said.

“Where will refurbishment dollars come from?

“There has been 10 years of mucking around; it’s time to activate the quarantine station.”

Cr Rodgers’ comments are risky as

many people in his ward were against the proposal, which was dumped by the new state government earlier this year.

He said 75 buildings in the precinct needed to be brought up to “21st century standards and used rather than left empty”.

None of the buildings had been occupied since about 1999 when they housed refugees from Kosovo, he said.

Cr Rodgers was contacted by The News after figures were provided to the newspaper that revealed Point Leisure Group would have spent $900,000 a year on renovations and improvements at its 64-hectare lease area, a total of $95 million over the lease period, adjusted for inflation.

The group would have spent

$365,000 a year on rent, reviewed after 10 years with increases based on profit.

PLG had committed to spending $40 million plus $8 million on the spa complex, $20 million on a hotel and $20 million on an education centre.

All of the leased area would have been available to the public, although entry fees and other charges would have applied to some areas such as the spa and hotel.

Point Leisure Group would have been responsible for cleaning up a section of land that still contained unexploded ordnance from when the Australian Defence Force used Point Nepean.

Cr Rodgers’ criticism followed news that the Labor state government could be liable for a compensation bill of up

to $1 million after it and Point Leisure Group failed to agree on a scaled-back project – fewer buildings, a 50-year lease with no 49-year extension, and community consultation.

Labor opposed the lease prior to last year’s state election, claiming the size and impact of the project was inappropriate and not supported by the community.

PLG, headed by Richard Shelmerdine and his wife Trine Nilsen, wanted to build a health and wellness retreat with hot springs, a spa, restaurant, hotel and conference centre.

The group has not given up on its ambitions although it will be back to the drawing board and back into the corridors of power.

One of Australia’s leading musculoskeletal podiatry practices, Foot and Leg Pain Clinics, is excelling in the areas of musculoskeletal medicine and tissue regeneration. Utilising the latest medical research and natural treatments, the clinics are able to help heal injuries and assist degenerative concerns such as arthritis. This means that many of the foot and leg pain and mobility concerns that usually result in long periods of medication and/or surgery, could be a thing of the past.

Musculoskeletal Podiatrist, Dr. David Kavanagh, from Foot & Leg Pain Clinics Mt. Eliza practice says, “We’ve had some outstanding results assisting; pain and mobility concerns, arthritis, soft tissue injuries and degeneration with regenerative injection therapies such as PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) and Prolotherapy (Proliferation of new tissue injection therapy).

We’ve assisted athletes return to professional sport, relieved pain in people who’ve suffered for years, promoted healing and increased mobility in people who’ve been told that nothing can be done for them and assisted others to avoid surgery.”

Similar in action, both treatments encourage the body’s natural healing mechanisms and promote the development of new collagen. PRP utilizes components of your own blood, whilst Prolo-

therapy consists of a glucose and anesthetic solution. Results include; increased joint, ligament, and tendon stability; enhanced muscle and cartilage repair; pain relief and increased mobility. Both treatments are also natural, non-toxic, minimally invasive and relatively fast acting.

“Combine these treatments with correct diagnosis, addressing structural issues and faulty biomechanics and the results can be outstanding and long-term”.

ficers in regards to tree removal in her street.

It seem Transfield (the council’s contractor for matters vegetation and environmental) is oblivious of its requirement to deal with the issue of vegetation management in a sensitive and caring way.

There seems to be no regard given to the impact on wildlife or the amenity of residents along our street verges. In Balnarring Beach for instance two flowering gums which were perfectly healthy have been chopped to the ground and not replaced by even a shrub or tree.

Coming back to Balnarring Beach Rd, I can see good reason to remove some pittosporums as they are weeds on the peninsula. There may even be a good reason to prune some of the trees of their dead parts, but to remove every mature tree all at once is vandalism.

The roadside vegetation management on the peninsula under the present contractor leaves a lot to be desired.

At Balnarring Beach there are several huge dead pine trees that definitely need to be removed for public safety, but it seems it is much preferred by the contractor to remove vegetation that supports wildlife.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring

Liberal support I’m hoping your readers could please help me out. For months I have been in a state of confusion as to whether I still reside in Mt Martha, or have been transported to some secret Labor electorate, without knowing about the move.

Week in week out as I read the letters column of this paper, I look in vain for one, yes, just one letter, that supports the Liberal Party on even the smallest of issues.

As a resident of more than 60 years I cannot remember a time that the electorate of Flinders was not held by the LNP and yet every week I am inundated by anti-government letters without a hint of rebuttal. So if I may, could I just try and point out a few things from the silent majority? Letter after letter from pastors and ministers on children in detention. No problem with you having an opinion guys, but where were you when the children were actually coming here and drowning in record numbers at sea?

Not one letter pointing out that there has not been one boat this year, or one asking how these people can afford the airfares from the home country and then pay thousands of dollars to people smugglers just to jump the queue on legitimate refugees.

To all those letter writers complaining that the government has stripped $80 billion from the Health and Education budget. No people. Not happening as you well know. The government and the states are just nutting out a better funding model.

Wind/solar versus coal. Could actually be an easy fix if the Rudd/Gillard/Rudd financial fiasco hadn’t decimated our financial reserves (built up under the previous Howard/Costello government) to such an extent that any mass-produced green power is just not affordable to consumers at the present time. Wind power is projected to cost twice as much, with solar coming in at four times the amount we now spend on coal/hydro.

This will takes my bill from $400 to $1200.

It would be so easy to keep going but I think you get my point. Sometimes the oldest sayings make the most sense and one comes to mind in this instance: An empty vessel makes the most noise.

I will now sit back with bated breath to see if the The News truly is “An independent voice for the community” and publishes this letter.

Michael.Free, Mt Martha

Sharing a dream I have a dream of living in a country whose policies are shaped by compassion not suspicion; where terrified refugees are not used as fodder in political games; where idealism not fear is the basis of votes; where those in power deem it their duty to protect and raise the weak rather than their own images; where there is no delusion about money being more valuable than humanity; where boys’ dominance games are kept out of parliament; where this planet is seen as our only home and other life forms are respected; where integrity, wisdom and kindness prevail among voters and those in power; where there is the insight to recognise that no-one can own this island.

It is ours to share, as it is shared with us.

Paula Polson, Dromana

Unspoken tantra This is regarding allegations of sexual impropriety that have shaken the usual calm surrounding the Shiva School of Meditation and Yoga at Mt Eliza by ashram director Swami Shankarananda (“Secret sex shakes yoga school”, The News 20/1/15).

Whatever Swami Shankarananda may have done is not for me to judge, however he seems to imply that this is due to his tantra activities, which he is implying is part of the tantra doctrine,.

His management has stated in another article: "It is well-known that our lineage is a tantric path, involving worship of the goddess with strict disciplines." (“Guru apologises over tantric activities.”

I met Swami Shankarananda last year with his wife in India, and he never spoke about tantra then.

Tantra and Hindustan have a strict gurushishya tradition (teacher disciple relationship) dating back several thousand years and nowhere is sexual impropriety between them acceptable.

Similarly, the goddess referred to by the management of Swami Shankarananda is Goddess Parvarti or Goddess Maa Kali, which is also

Whales delight

Footpaths taxed

This most amazing photo of a breaching humpback whale was taken near Pyramid Rock, just to south of Philip Island. Whales have also been seen breaching in Westen Port.

We can thank Sea Shepherd for saving the whales from slaughter by the Japanese for the large number of whales this year.

Are you as overjoyed as me that the Port of Hastings container port has been put on hold for now?

This is the whale season, how would they go if competing with container ships? Thank you to the Andrew’s government for moving away from this development.

I also support restricting any export of bitumen and upgraded coal products from Long Island at Hastings or Crib Point.

On a whale-watching trip from Cowes we saw two orcas and four whales and were surrounded at one point with dolphins playing with seals. The other day a dolphin was seen riding on the back of a whale.

A map shows 100 whale sightings this season, many of which are in the channel and two in front of Cowes, right where container ships or bulk ships would go if the port expands.

Sue King, Somers

I can totally sympathise with Peter Moore (“Somers change”, Letters 28/7/15) and his frustration concerning footpath construction by Mornington Peninsula Shire.

We have had the carbon tax, the mining tax and now we have the shire's “footpath tax.

Mr Moore's Somers experience is being repeated by council around the peninsula with much enthusiasm.

Residents of Coppin Rd on the fringe of Sorrento have received a letter from council informing them that they were to have a footpath constructed in their street at a total cost of $400,000 with the real shock being a “footpath tax” of up to and over $4000 a household. No prior consultation, just a letter out of the blue.

But this will not be the ordinary sort of footpath you might find in Toorak or Hawthorn.

No, this footpath will be the gold-plated version made from exposed aggregate concrete. Those familiar with such things can confirm that the exposed aggregate approach usually doubles the cost of materials and preparation. It will also be wider than a standard footpath - increasing costs even further.

The council claims a footpath will enhance the safety of the few pedestrians who will use it, and this is a fair point, but so would the more common concrete version used throughout Melbourne by less extravagant councils and in more affluent areas..

There is apparently a long waiting list for footpaths in the municipality so if council is genuinely concerned about pedestrian safety why not use the less costly standard concrete mix and use the savings to build another footpath or three?

I wonder too how this footpath tax fits with the state government's intention to limit rate increases to CPI from next year? Will the footpath tax need to be increased to compensate for the constraints on rates?

If your road does not have a footpath now you too could receive a footpath tax demand from for thousands of dollars anytime soon.

Should council proceed to throw money around in this way perhaps the mayor could fly in by helicopter from Mornington to open this grand piece of infrastucture upon its completion.

Geoffrey Allen, Sorrento

the wrong example as the worship of Goddess Paravarti or Goddess Maa Kali does not accept improper sexual behaviour between the guru and his students.

In fact, the Goddess Parvarti or Goddess Maa Kali are a fine example of the dedication and loyalty she has for her husband Lord Shiva, and she is worshiped because of this by millions of her devotees worldwide.

Helpers thanked Thank you kind residents of Hastings for helping my husband Earl who had a bad fall last Thursday in High St at the corner of King St. He is now recovering in Frankston Hospital where he was sent by ambulance by one of the kind persons.

Roma Jorgenson, Hastings

Point misunderstood It is quite amazing that an organisation such as the Victorian National Parks Association can wield such influence over the Minister for Environment Lisa Neville, whereby she is prepared to waste million of public money by terminating a Crown lease over the Point Nepean National Park.

The comments attributed to that organisation that the proposed lease to the Point Leisure Group would have resulted in the public being locked out of many parts of Point Nepean proves that they (and probably the minister as well) did not read or fully understand the Point Leisure Group's actual proposal or the tender documentation that governed the leasing process.

Both the expression of interest and request for proposal documents were emphatic that the current public access arrangements had to be maintained and that the extent of land required for commercial development had to be kept to a minimum.

As the Point Leisure Group was to assume all the maintenance obligations (and costs associated) throughout the park that Parks Victoria currently undertakes, then they had to hold a lease over those areas, so as they can take the commercial risk (and liability) for providing those services.

The tender documentation also obligated the lessee to undertake restoration of the Quarantine Station buildings at its cost. From a commercial viability perspective, it would need for the surpluses or profits from its commercial development to finance the Quarantine Station restora-

tion works. You can't have one without the other.

Perhaps the key to the VNPA’s position is not so much to do with Point Nepean specifically, but rather no "full blown (commercial) development in other national parks".

By adopting the VNPA’s stated position, will the minister now devote the $40 million or so required to restore the Quarantine Station buildings (which the Point Leisure Group was contractually obligated to deliver) or will this local community just have to go through another protracted process to have the private sector commit to the restoration, only to be gazumped, once again, by the VNPA’s antiquated views?

We will not holding our collective breathes.

Peter T. Curtin, Sorrento

Would-be citizen Like David Muggleton of Mornington (“Citizenship bid”, Letters 28/7/15), I have lived in Australia for the past 11 years on a temporary 410 visa. I also pay my taxes and rates and contribute to Australia and its wonderful quality of life.

However, living with no permanent future is not ideal to my family circumstances. Two of my children live here and are citizens as are their five children, all are doing well and contributing towards their Australian future.

I would love to be regarded as a citizen but, in this country of the fair go, I am denied this simple hope. Those of us on the 410 visas cost Australia nothing yet, despite paying our way, have no representation, vote or other say in the future. Friends are always amazed when they are told of our plight as they all presume that, like so many others who have arrived from abroad, we enjoy the rights and privileges that they enjoy – often at cost to the Australian taxpayers.

I am pinning my hopes on the Ian Goodenough private members bill. At least Mr Goodenough is able to see the anomaly of our situation which is more than can be said for Dunkley MP Bruce Billson, who has done little or nothing in our support. I am proud to be here in Australia and able to enjoy life on the Mornington Peninsula.

Douglas McClary, Mt Eliza.

Save the trees It has come to my attention that there is a planning application to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council for the removal of almost all mature trees along Balnarring Beach Rd is in progress.

I have also become aware that this sort of environmental vandalism is not an isolated case. A person from Rosebud is also having a hard time with {Mornington Peninsula Shire] council of-

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Captain Hartland killed in Gallipoli Compiled by Melissa Walsh WE regret to report that Captain Leslie Hartland (whose letter is published in this issue) has been killed in action.

Deep sympathy is expressed for Mr and Mrs Hartland and family, in their great sorrow. *** A STOREHOUSE, on the Brooklyn Estate, owned by Mr Archibald, was entered last week, and some tools, etc, were stolen. The thieves were a mean, hungry lot, as they stripped a small rhubarb plot. The matter has been reported to the police. *** AUSTRALIA Day (30th July) was celebrated at Mornington Junction by a bazaar and sale of gifts, the proceeds of which it is intended to be given to the Australian Red Cross and Belgian Funds.

The bazaar was opened at 3 o’clock in the afternoon and continued open during the afternoon and evening, in the Presbyterian Church, kindly lent for the occasion.

The attendance was good and a brisk trade was carried out by those who took part. No less than £36 5s being realised and as the expenses had been cut down to a minimum (£2 16s), the promoters will have the handsome sum of £33 6s to be divided between the two funds, which speaks volumes for the generosity of those that attended.

The committee wishes to record their high appreciation of the many in which Mrs C. Grant, and the friends from Somerville assisted the move-

ment, and also to thank Mr M. Brody for the use of his marquee. A cushion is still unclaimed, won by “Baby Jack.” *** THE social in aid of Lady Stanley’s special appeal for the wounded Australians, which was held on Friday evening last, was undoubtedly the most successful yet held. The hall, which had been tastefully decorated with colored flowers and flags, was filled to its utmost capacity.

Songs were rendered in fine style

by Mr L. Denham, Mr A. E. Denham and Mrs Woodhouse, and the dancing was kept going until about 3am. The committee had prepared excellent refreshments, and is to be highly congratulated on their splendid method of management.

The net proceeds reached the sum of £9 2s 6d and as the expenses will be only about £1, a highly satisfactory sum will be forwarded to the Fund.

Since July 1 the committee have received the sum of £32 15s in donations in aid of the Red Cross Fund; £14 9s by monthly subscription, and 308 articles have been forwarded to the central depot. *** IN accordance with a notice in last week’s issue, a public meeting of the residents of Frankston was held in the Mechanics’ Hall on Wednesday evening for the purpose of recording its determination to continue the war at all hazards to a victorious end. The hall was well filled, and considerable enthusiasm was shown in the proceedings.

The President of the Shire (Cr W. J. Oates) occupied the chair, and after the National Anthem had been sung, he asked Dr Plowman (the secretary) to read the minutes of the previous two meetings held in connection with the patriotic movement in Frankston.

On the motion of Rev H. Jackson, seconded by Mr Mason, the minutes as read were confirmed. The chairman in feeling terms, referred to the sad news just received by Mr Hartland of the death, whilst in action at Gallipoli, of his son, Captain L. Hartland. The deceased was the second in Victoria to offer to go to the front on the declaration of war.

He expressed the deepest sympathy for Mr and Mrs Hartland and family in their bereavement; at the same time they had the consolation of knowing that he had died nobly in fighting for his well beloved country. The audience here all rose in expression of sympathy with the bereaved ones.

The chairman then asked Dr Plowman to move the first resolution. Dr Plowman said the resolution commended itself to all right thinking people, and like good wine, required no bush. It might be thought superfluous to hold such a meeting in a small place like Frankston, but it was like the grains of sand on the seashore – it took all the small units to make up a great whole.

He would not move this resolution if he thought the war was an unjust one, but when Germany declared war on Belgium, it behoved England to defend that country against that great

nation. If, when the Germans had crossed the Belgian frontier, England had not declared war he would have been ashamed to call himself an Englishman.

He was impressed that the resolution he was about to move was not only a resolution to defend England, but it was one to defend our own hearths and homes. Our brave soldiers are fighting over there for us as much as if the enemy was at our gates. To underrate the necessity of carrying on this war to a successful termination would be a terrible mistake. He felt their must be no lack in enlisting and reinforcing till the enemy is utterly crushed. Any peace before that would be the very worst thing that could happen, therefore it behoved us to carry the following resolution unanimously:– “On this Anniversary of the declaration of a righteous war, this Meeting of the Citizens of the Shire of Frankston and Hastings records its inflexible determination to continue to a victorious end the struggle in maintenance of those ideals of liberty and justice which are the common and sacred cause of the Allies”.

Mr E. McComb seconded the resolution. Rev R. Jackson, Dr Maxwell, Sergeant Malcomb, Mr Hunt, Mr W. P. Mason, Mr Grey, and Mr Richardson spoke in favor of the resolution, and on being put, it was carried unanimously.

The chairman then read a circular from the Australian Patriot’s League in which they requested that the following resolution be put:– “That this meeting of the Shire of

Frankston and Hastings is of the opinion that all German and other alien enemies, whether naturalized or not, at the present time in the employment of the Government at home or abroard, whether Federal or State, either in a civil or military capacity, should be instantly removed from their positions, and that the Federal Government and the State Government of Victoria take steps to carry this into effect.”

“That this meeting of Citizens of the Shire of Frankston and Hastings is of the opinion that all German or other alien enemies residing in Australia should be instantly interned during the continuance of the present appalling war, and that the Federal Government take steps to carry this into effect, and that it is desirable that the Government take possession of their property and apply it to the cost of their maintenance.”

After the resolutions had been thoroughly discussed they were put to the meeting and carried unanimously. The meeting then closed with the National Anthem.

We call attention to an advertisement in another column of a meeting of the contributors to the Patriotic Fund. The Treasurer holds a substantial balance in hand and he will ask directions as to its disposal. Subsequently the meeting will resolve itself into one to organise entertainment and presentation to those volunteers for the war who have recently enlisted from the district.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The long dark tea-time of the soul

By Stuart McCullough SOME things ought to be considered private. They are not for broadcast or devoured by the eyes of others. But without even knowing it, I have been betrayed. My secret shame has been exposed for all to see, putting me at real risk of enduring ridicule and mockery. So now that the cat is out of the bag and it can only be moments before you hear this tantalising piece of gossip, I might as well get in first.

The plain truth is this: my name is Stuart McCullough and I sometimes drink decaffeinated tea.

There you go: I’ve said it. It’s okay to be shocked and even a little let down. There’s a reason that I’ve kept this information secret for so long.

Drinking tea is, of itself, considered by those who prefer to suck down on mega-lattes and short blacks with each alternative breath to be a form of heresy. But to remove caffeine – the one redeeming feature of such a beverage – is an outrage of unimaginable dimensions for such people. So much so that they may well need a cup of tea and a good lie down just to restore a sense of calm which, given their preference for industrial strength drinks, is something of an irony.

So how did my secret shame become public knowledge? Were my accounts hacked? Was it a case of loose lips of Mick Jagger-esque proportions sinking ships? Not at all. I have not been attacked or let down by someone else’s inability to keep a secret. Rather, I have been betrayed by the drink itself. That’s right: my tea has turned against me and completely spilled the beans even if spilling the beans sounds

more like something coffee would do rather than tea. What’s even worse is that, until recently, I was completely oblivious to this act of betrayal.

With every tea bag, there’s a little piece of string and a little paper tag.

These things are held together with a

tiny staple and, together, they facilitate the all-important dunking process. As anyone who drinks tea will tell you, it’s all well and good to let the bag infuse in its own sweet time, but sooner or later you’re going to want to take

matters into your own hands and give that thing a couple of hearty dunks.

But as important as the tag may be, this was the very source of my betrayal. Not satisfied with simply including the name of the particular brand of tea, it carried a message directed to the world at large.

‘De-stressing with a decaf’ declared the tag as it dangled over the side of my cup. Oblivious, I had been wandering around the office with this thing in plain view. Frankly, a declaration of this kind is nothing short of a sign of weakness. Not only does it expose me as a wuss of near unthinkable proportions but also suggests that the act of getting a hot drink to take back to my desk should be interpreted as a some kind of cry for help. Surely, this will inevitably (and rightly) expose me to ridicule. Upon spotting this message I quickly ripped it from its string, hoping no one had learned my dark and terrible secret. But as I took a closer look at the packet, I noticed for the first time that each tea bag seems to have a different message.

‘I’m on my break from caffeine and work’. This one isn’t so much a declaration of weakness as it is plain obnoxious. If I saw someone flouting a message like that I would give them a particularly wide berth and, later, steal their stapler. As for ‘Do not want list: Caffeine distractions’ and ‘Yes to refreshment, no to caffeine’; they’re not so much informative as they are flat-out judgemental. Much like those signs you see planted in the front yards of houses with especially lush gardens that declare themselves to be using tank water, what they’re really saying

is that they’re better than you are. As for ‘Meditating with a decaf, back in 10’, if I’m going to peddle a message like that I might as well go all the way and start wearing hemp trousers and listen to Grateful Dead records. But if I, as the owner of these tea bags, find them and their grandstanding to be offensive, I can only imagine the impact they’re having on others.

It’s not just my tea bags that are conspiring against me. Yesterday, I discovered that one of my running tops as a message sewn into the hem along the bottom. ‘Don’t forget to drink a beer or two along the way’. I don’t know if this is an act of retaliation against the tea bag people or some form of sabotage and trying to throw me right of my game, but I am confused and alarmed that all these objects have so much to say when, to be frank, it’s really not their place to do so.

Tea bags, running tops and other sundry items should all just be quiet.

When I want their opinion, I’ll ask for it. Until then, I just want to drink my wuss-bag tea in peace and without inadvertently slagging off other people.

I am not de-stressing or meditating.

Nor is some kind of principled stand against caffeine which, truth be told, I like very much. It’s just a beverage. No more, no less. Douglas Adams once wrote about The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul but was silent as to whether the tea in question for decaffeinated or full-strength. It probably didn’t matter. I’m not sure quite what he meant by that phrase, but I’m determined to figure it out. In the meantime, perhaps I should just put the kettle on. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

HUGO RACE & THE TRUE SPIRIT

By Lachlan Bryan

Whilst Nick Cave has slowly but surely become one of Australia’s most successful and highly influential international superstars, it’s easy to overlook the contributions made by members of his bands – namely The Birthday Party, The Boys Next Door, The Bad Seeds and Grinderman.

Whilst long-time wingman Mick Harvey has established himself as a producer of note and current wingman Warren Ellis is an accomplished film composer and one third of instrumental The Dirty Three, other Cave cohorts such as Conway Savage and Hugo Race have quietly achieved respect and notoriety as artists in their own right.

record – his first in seven years.

The album, itself titled Spirit, has received phenomenal press worldwide, indicative of the esteem in which the the singersongwriter-producer is held outside of his home country.

UK publication Vive Le Rock gave the album 8/10, whilst the UK’s Q Magazine describe it as “one of the best records he’s ever made”. Thankfully for us locals, Race is back home with the band for a series of album launch shows, including a performance at Castlemaine’s The Bridge Hotel on Saturday 15 August and Elsternwick’s Flying Saucer Club on Friday 21 August.

Race, with his band The True Spirit, has just released a new

SPEND A HOT AUGUST NIGHT AT FAC Frankston Arts Centre Hear Neil Diamond’s legendary Hot August Night album in its entirety – one of the bestselling albums in Australian music history - 1 in 3 homes has a copy!

The show also features interesting stories about how the songs were created, and of Diamond’s dark journey from being a struggling Brooklyn poet, to becoming one of the worlds most loved performers.

As well as being a celebration of Diamond’s greatest hits, Hot August Night and Me, offers its audience so much more.

Performer Dominic Finley is a former member of 80s chart toppers Cutting Crew (known for their number 1 hit I Just Died

in your Arms), and has a background worlds apart from Diamond’s New York upbringing in the ‘Tin Pan Alley’ days of Broadway.

Finley’s is the world of cobbled streets, terrace houses, and a show business grounding won out of the gritty working men’s clubs in Lancashire, in the North of England.

‘Lost between two shores’ Finley’s story leads to his eventual emigration to Australia, a true Neil Diamond country!

Hot August Night and Me will be at Frankston Arts Centre on Friday 7 August at 8pm.

Hillmen remain in the hunt NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt RED HILL kept its finals chances alive with a gutsy four-quarter performance against Hastings on Saturday at Thomas Barclay Reserve.

Whilst the Hillmen continued its push towards finals, Hastings let slip an opportunity to break away from other sides vying for a top three position.

The Hillmen were too strong over four quarters, winning comfortably 14.8 (92) to 10.5 (65). It was Red Hill’s best win of the season.

It was the stars who shone yet again for the Hillmen, but it was teenage defender Jonah Siverson who really stood out playing in the back half.

Siverson has become a very valuable commodity at Red Hill and his form in the past month has been outstanding.

Sean Holmes was outstanding for the Hillmen too and played arguably his best game for the season with three goals. Harry Larwill’s transition

from defence to attack continues to be a masterstroke by coach Tony Blackford too. Harry booted another three goals on Saturday.

Paul Wintle is a star but goes unnoticed most weeks. One can’t underestimate the significant contribution Wintle makes most weeks in defence.

Paul Rogasch led the charge for Hastings and Josh Mulheron again gave his smalls first use of the pill.

The Blues tackle Tyabb next week while Red Hill has the bye.

Rosebud maintained its position a game clear at the top of the Nepean Division ladder after leading all afternoon to beat Somerville.

The Buds opened well with first quarter goals to Jason Bristow and Tom Baker. They kept Somerville goalless in the opening 25 minutes of the match and led by 15 points at the first change.

Rosebud was able to maintain the momentum of the game for almost the next 90 minutes.

Tom Baker booted two goals in the last quarter to stretch the margin to 24

points, before Somerville came home with a rush, only to fall short by one straight kick, 9.7 (61) to 9.12 (66).

Rob Forrest returned to the Rosebud side after a broken jaw and didn’t waste any time booting three goals and collecting best on ground honors.

Matt Baker was a rock across half back and Greg Bentley enjoyed his second dominant performance against the Eagles this season. No doubt that Bentley saves his very best for the good sides.

Justin Farrelly was outstanding in the ruck for the Eagles and Jedd Sutton and Scott Simpson worked hard.

Adrian Speedy and Adrian Ridout booted two goals apiece.

For the second time this season, Crib Point pushed Sorrento to the wire.

The first time the sides played, Crib Point had a blistering final quarter and overrun the Sharks. On this occasion, the Pies booted six goals to four after half time but started their run too late and went down 6.11 (47) to 8.9 (57).

Jamus Campbell was superb again

for the winners while Troy Schwarze was the instigator in getting his side over the line.

Brad Arnold led from the front for the Pies and James Cook played arguably his best game for the season.

If I was any coach looking to play finals, I’d be looking to sit down with Pies coach Duane Annable and shout him a cuppa!

Devon Meadows came storming home in the last quarter against Rye but it wasn’t enough to cause an upset, going down 13.12 (90) to 10.15 (75).

The Meadows let themselves down in the first quarter when they squandered opportunities, booting just two goals from 10 shots at goals.

Rye on the other hand converted five of their seven shots and led by 12 points at the first change. The margin blew out to 34 points at half time and the game was done and dusted right there. The Meadows booted 7.6 to 4.5 after half time.

Western Port News 4 August 2015

Mullett also dominated through the middle of the ground.

Pat Harmes was again outstanding for the Meadows while lesser-likes in terms of reputation in Jayden Sullivan and Jack Henderson were also strong performers.

Frankston Bombers had its best win of the season, dominating Dromana to win 13.9 (87) to 6.8 (44).

Zac Longham was at his absolute best for the Bombers with seven goals while Brett Sutton and James Degenhardt dominated.

Kieran Voelkl and Chris Ongarello were the best of the Tigers.

In the final game Pearcedale beat Tyabb 24.22 (166) to 9.6 (60) as expected.

Pat Heijden booted 10 goals and was instrumental in the win while Ben Mitchell completely dominated.

Alex Harnett was also impressive in his second game.

Jake Anderson booted five goals for the Yabbies and was clearly their best, along with Adrian Clay.

Danger: Eagles on fire PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt EDITHVALE-ASPENDALE is coming and are looking ominous after blowing Mornington away by more than five goals on Saturday.

Edithvale started well and led by 11 points at quarter time and nine points at the major interval.

However, it was the seven goal to one third term that set-up the 14.13 (97) to 8.17 (65) victory.

Edithvale-Aspendale, as we well know, is hard to stop when its confidence is up.

One could argue that the Eagles’ draw has been relatively soft over the past five weeks, however, it’s hard to argue with five wins on the trot.

Three of those five wins have come against Langwarrin at Lloyd Park, Pines and Mornington. That’s three of

the best six sides in the competition right there.

The fact of the matter is that the youngsters feel like they belong and the more experienced players are at the top of their game.

Mark Meehan was outstanding once again on Saturday with four goals, while Matt Clark continues to rip the competition to pieces with three goals in a best on ground performance.

Watching Clark run around is like watching an U16 playing U12s football.

Tim Mannix and the underrated Mark Mullins were outstanding too for the Eagles.

Graeme Yeats and the Edithvale brains trust must be congratulated on the way they have managed Tim Mannix. He seems to be up and going at the right end of the season.

Joel Miller was again Mornington’s

Sudoku and crossword solutions

best while Warwick Miller was also very good.

It’s hard not to wonder what the issue is at Mornington. They seem to have fallen off the pace.

Frankston YCW again flexed its muscles on Saturday, this time belting Pines.

The Stonecats booted eight goals to one in the first quarter and at Jubilee Park, there’s no coming back from that.

Again, the winners shared the goals around, Anthony Bruhn booted four of them and Craig Nankervis three.

Byron Barry and Kevin Lylak dominated and Luke Collins played his best game for his new club.

Trent Potts and Aaron Edwards were the best of the Pythons, who now seem to be running out of steam.

Seaford and Langwarrin slugged it out in a goal fest, the visitors eventually getting home by seven points, 18.15

(123) to 17.14 (116).

The Kangas opened-up the game in the third quarter with nine goals to three, before Seaford finished with six goals to one.

Kieran Albanese showed he belongs in the senior side with four goals for the Kangas, while Dale Binks played higher at times and finished with three majors, along with Sean Herdman.

Jayden Grose and Michael Parker were outstanding through the middle of the ground.

Joe Hallal wound back the clock with four goals for the Tigers and Michael Herbert and Josh Stokes worked tirelessly.

Justin Van Unen booted 11 goals and moved to 83 for the season after his side Mt Eliza smashed Chelsea on Saturday, 22.19 (151) to 6.3 (39).

The Redlegs booted 10 goals to five in the first half and kicked 12 goals to

one in a dominant second hour.

Rohan Heasley and Dave Barton were at their best through the middle of the ground.

Todd Gardiner booted two goals for the Gulls and James Sivijs was tireless also.

Bonbeach was forced to work hard to get the four points against Karingal.

It was a tight first half and only 12 points separated the sides at half time.

Through the likes of Daniel Smith in his 300th game and Mark Tyrell, as well as Chris Bryan at full forward with five goals, the Sharks were able to get on top.

The margin was 29 points at three quarter time and the final score was 18.16 (124) to 5.8 (38).

Karingal didn’t score a goal in the second half, despite the efforts of Hadley Tomamichel and Aaron Paxton.

Red Hill outwork disappointing Hastings side HASTINGS FNC

By Phil Stone, club president SATURDAY was a big day for the club. Coming of a terrific result against Somerville the boys had it all at there feet and what was a great opportunity to consolidate our position in the top five. We unfortunately fell to a much more committed Red Hill outfit. Hopefully we can learn from this result and show a much more steely resolve against Tyabb FNC at Tyabb this Saturday in what now shapes up as a very important game, with only three rounds to go.

A big thank you to everyone who was involved in the Presidents Luncheon. To our special guest ex Footscray great John Schultz, who was absolutely fabulous, what a wonderful man he is. A huge thankyou to Doug Ackerly for his efforts on the day, also to our very own John Watson hall of famer, team of century on his efforts on the day. It was a very well attended luncheon with all our 40 odd local business partners in attendance. We thank you all for efforts in supporting your local football team, it was just a pity we put on such a dismal display on the field.

Also to everyone who donated money to the Brainwave Foundation on Saturday we thank you very much a good amount of money was raised, and a special mention to Beth Conlin & to Leah Jones from Lyon Sportswear for the specially designed one-off jumpers. We thank you both for all your hard work the jumpers look sensational.

Seniors Report REALLY disappointing effort by us. We were mentally and physically beaten in what was a very important game for both sides. The most disappointing thing was that we wanted to finger point and blame rather then dig in and get on top.

We lost and opportunity on the weekend and now we are back in the pack. We need to refocus and go Tyabb with a different mindset.

Reserves Report WE played Red Hill at home in a must win game to play finals. The boys got off to a very slow start in the first quarter and let Red Hill run rampant kicking the first four goals of the game before we even scored.

Into the second quarter the boys were asked to be more accountable and tighten up which they did; slowing the game down and little and getting on top around the stoppages.

Into the third quarter the boys were fighting very hard to get back into the game by playing a hard tackling brand of footy to be down by five goals at three quarter time.

Into the last the boys were urged to give it one last crack and what a quarter they played. Unfortunately we ran out of time and went down by five points in a thrilling quarter of football. Better players on the day were Mick Cave, Kyle Brouwer, Wade Delahaye, Dan Kerber, and Dylan Paarlberg.

Under 19’s (By Aaron Wilson) RED Hill under 19’s were too strong for the Hastings under 19’s in their round 13 clash.

After a relatively even contest before half time Red Hill stormed home in the second half to record a big win. Jakecob Whithers at full back was best on for the home team, after not getting beaten all day and applying great defensive pressure. Brennon Hassan continued his good form while Kyron Pratt at full forward kicked two goals. The boys will look to regroup and prepare for Tyabb next week.

Netball WE welcomed Red Hill Football Netball Club to our home courts in what we anticipated to be tough matches.

C grade were out classed by a youthful Red Hill Team. Abbie Liddell had her best game in the mid court since coming to Hastings.

A very slow start from B grade saw the score blow out very quickly in the first quarter which them put the match too far out of reach to challenge them. However they composed themselves and were very competitive for the remaining three quarters.

A grade focused on set team goals and fought the match out. We maintained our pressure on Red Hill however with many unsuccessful attempts to score we were unable to take full advantage of our opportunities. We did improve our own score against Red Hill since our last encounter, which is a great indicator of our continued efforts to improve. We kept our heads high and played with integrity sticking to our team values. Next week we will strive to further goals, in particular valuing possession and using the ball effectively into the goal ring.

The Tyabb girls are a very strong and our next challenge on their home turf. *** THIS Saturday sees the Hastings FNC playing away against Tyabb FNC for the George Slocombe Shield in what is shaping as a very important game. Lets make sure we all get to Tyabb to support all teams. Games start from 10.00 am this Saturday the 8th August, 2015.

Motoring Land Rover goes underground to test new SUV

254 Marine Pde MON-FRI: 8am-5pm SAT: 8am-12noon

LAND Rover has confirmed the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first premium compact SUV convertible will go on sale in 2016.

Forty metres below the streets of London, UK, the first prototype of Land Roverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new Range Rover Evoque Convertible was granted exclusive access to the 26-mile (42km) network of Crossrail tunnels for a development test with a difference. Engineers were allowed the opportunity to drive the disguised Evoque Convertible with its roof lowered in complete privacy.

Murray Dietsch, Director of Land Rover Programmes said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The tunnels are still under construction, so we had a unique opportunity to explore the vehicleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-terrain ability in unchartered territory.â&#x20AC;?

The Range Rover Evoque is no stranger to subterranean adventure. At its launch in 2011 the fivedoor variant was driven through Edge Hill Tunnel in Liverpool, the first tunnel in the world to be bored beneath a major city.

Land Rover will announce further details about its exclusive new premium compact SUV Convertible later this year. It will be built alongside the five door and coupe Evoque at Land Roverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Halewood plant in the UK and will be on sale in 2016.
