for peninsula families

NO sooner had pupils from St Brendan’s Pri-mary School in Somerville fi nished their garden project than vandals came and destroyed it.

Designed as part of an environment and sus-tainability program, the “vertical garden” was a credit to their care and attention, with plastic bottles collected and the tops cut off, beds laid and seeds sown.

Their parents had helped, too, and by Friday things were ready to grow in Austin Rd.

But a trio of teenage boys drinking in the school grounds on Sunday night changed all that.

Principal Sue Carr said footage on the school’s CCTV cameras shows them starting their rampage slowly, then building into a frenzy of destruction and destroying all the children’s hard work.

“It was heartbreaking for the children on Mon-day when they saw that not a thing was left,” Mrs Carr said. “Their garden didn’t even last a week.”

Unwanted after-hours visitors are a problem at the school, with staff regularly having to clean up bottles and cigarette butts on Monday morn-ings, Ms Carr said.

Plans for a school orchard are now in abey-ance. “We’ll have to decide whether to do it now,” Mrs Carr said. “We want to teach the children resilience; we want to make it work.”

The size of the school grounds is a problem with the cost of secure fencing unaffordable.

The CCTV images of Sunday’s vandal attack have been taken to Hastings police.

“It’s tragic that the pupils’ hard work was un-done by others,” Sergeant Simon Noonan said.

RED Hill ward voters will have a shire record 17 candidates to choose from when they cast their ballots for a new councillor on 23 August.

The long list of names on the bal-lot paper is seen as a major win for the democratic process which in 2008 saw candidates in six of the then 11 single-councillor shire wards returned uncontested.

Former Red Hill councillor Frank Martin entered council unopposed that year. He faced two opponents in 2012, one of whom is standing again this time. He resigned recently be-cause of ill health.

This election’s huge fi eld is a dis-parate group, including two former councillors, a retired County Court judge, an accountant and a microbi-ologist.

The poll result could have several profound consequences for Morning-

ton Peninsula Shire. With Red Hill ward vacant, councillors are stalemat-ed at fi ve-all on crucial issues, includ-ing the site for Rosebud’s proposed Southern Peninsula Aquatic Centre (SPA).

The new Red Hill ward councillor opposing building SPA on the fore-shore, or opposing building it at all, could kill the project.

Candidates invitedCandidates invited THE 17 candidates in next month’s by-election to represent Red Hill on Mornington Peninsula Shire Council have been invited to speak at a public meeting on Saturday.

Balnarring Village Common group is holding the meeting from 2pm at the Balnarring Hall.

Results of the postal ballot will be announced on Saturday 23 August.

Art for port fightArt for port fightAN art show is being run to raise money for a fi ght against expansion of the Port of Hastings by the Pre-serve Western Port action group.

The Celebrating Western Port and Phillip Island exhibition is on until Sunday (3 August) at Saraghi Gal-lery, Cafe Lugano, 71 Thompson Av, Cowes, Phillip Island.

It includes works by John Adam, Josephine Allen, Nicolas Day, Caro-lyn Goldberg, Warren Nichols, Sandra Peeters and Peter Walker.

Call for actorsCall for actorsTHE Pelican Theatre Company is looking for 10-17 year olds to join the cast of its upcoming production, Santa Corp.

An information night for the aspir-ing actors will be held 7pm-7.30pm Wednesday 6 August at Hastings Hall, 3 High St, Hastings.

Juniors under lightsJuniors under lightsCRIB Point and Hastings under 15 footballers will play at the Hastings ground this Friday under lights at 7pm.

There will be a barbecue, raffl e and soft drink available but no alcohol is permitted.

THE federal environment department has ruled there is no harm being caused to whales from undersea drilling in Western Port.

The drilling, part of investigations into expanding the Port of Hastings, has been underway for some months but environmentalists say it endangers mother whales entering the bay with their calves.

A spokeswoman for Flinders MP and Environment Minister Greg Hunt last week said a geotechnical and geo-physical survey of western Port “has not been referred under national envi-ronment law”.

“Offi cers of the Department of the Environment have looked into this matter to determine whether national environmental law applies,” she said.

“Based on the information available, it is unlikely to result in a signifi cant impact on any matters of national envi-ronmental signifi cance.”

Lawyer Ariane Wilkinson, of En-vironmental Justice Australia, said “a number of whales, including a mother and calf, are at risk of harm by under-water drilling” in Western Port.

“Any action that is likely to have a signifi cant impact on a matter of na-tional environmental signifi cance must be referred for assessment and approv-al,” Ms Wilkinson said.

Jeff Nottle, chairman of the Pre-serve Western Port Action Group, said Western Port was protected under the international Ramsar agreement “and should not be subject to the actions currently being conducted by the Port

Port work no danger to whales: HuntPort work no danger to whales: Hunt

of Hastings Development Authority”.A spokesman for the port authority

said controls set by the survey’s envi-ronmental management plan – a con-dition of Victorian approval – “ensure that the Ramsar values will be pro-tected and that compliance with the controls will be reported”.

Ms Wilkinson said the port authority was disregarding its obligations under the Environment Protection and Bio-diversity Conservation Act.

“The EPBC Act clearly states that activities, like underwater drilling,

which are likely to harm whales, need to be approved by the federal environ-ment minister,” she said.

“Previous drilling activities around Australia have been referred to the minister.”

A mother whale and calf had been seen “very close to the drilling site at Cowes [Phillip Island]”.

“Experts believe these whales are southern right whales. The expert view is that southern right whales are extremely sensitive to noise distur-bance, especially when they are nurs-

ing a baby calf,” said Ms Wilkinson.“Other whales have been seen in

the area as recently as last Monday. The Port of Hastings Development Authority need to take their legal responsibilities seriously to protect these sensitive animals.”

Mr Nottle said up to 110 bores had been drilled in Western Port.

“This is Minister Hunt’s electorate and this is going on right under his nose. This issue is important for the economy of this area.

“Whale watching tours form an ac-tive and growing part of the tourism economy in Western Port.”

Meanwhile, the port authority has started studying Western Port’s weather and wave patterns.

“We are focusing on fi nding out as much as we can about Western Port and its environs to better inform plan-ning and design decisions about the proposed container port at Hastings,” CEO Mike Lean said.

“Understanding the many variables ranging from wind speeds and tidal patterns to water levels and wave ac-tions, will greatly inform and direct the ongoing detailed scientifi c studies that we need to undertake to develop the design of the expanded port.

“It’s all about ensuring we have the necessary information to inform the design processes for the Port of Hast-ings development,” Mr Lean said.

100% of your fi re levy goes to our fi re servicesLast year, the Victorian Government replaced the Fire Services Levy with a fairer system, as recommended by the

Victorian Bushfi res Royal Commission. Now every property owner contributes a fair share to Victoria’s fi re services,

not just those with adequate insurance. Eligible pensioners and veterans also receive a $50 concession.

100 per cent of the fi re levy goes to support greater funding of the operations of the Country Fire Authority and

Metropolitan Fire Brigade. This includes fi refi ghters, staff and volunteers, training, community education, protective

clothing, vital lifesaving equipment and more than 1,200 fi re stations and 2,300 trucks.

Each year, Victoria’s fi refi ghters attend more than 78,000 incidents, including road accidents and rescues, bush and

grass fi res, fi res in the home, and workplace incidents. It’s a fairer fi re levy.

Continued from Page 1The two ex-councillors campaigning for

Red Hill are Leigh Eustace, formerly of the old Mt Eliza ward and Neale Adams, who was Red Hill councillor in the early 2000s. Cr Eustace lost his place at the 2012 poll, when single-member wards were replaced by multi-member ones. Mr Adams lost to Frank Martin in Mr Adams’s 2012 bid to re-enter council.

Both would almost certainly look criti-cally at the SPA project, particularly at the foreshore site.

Retired County Court judge Tim Wood QC would, if elected, be the second law-yer and second naval offi cer on council. Cr Hugh Fraser (lawyer) and Cr David Garnock (RAN) represent Nepean and Cer-berus wards respectively.

Mr Wood still holds the rank of Commo-dore and is a consultant to the Inspector-General of the Australian Defence Force. He has concerns over issues such as neglect of roads and other infrastructure in the ward.

Accountant Bryan Payne, once a council CEO, was unsuccessful in the 2012 Nepean ward election, running third behind Tim Rodgers and Cr Fraser.

Microbiologist Barbara Porter could be considered a strong and well qualifi ed en-vironmentalist. She was involved in the original successful appeal to VCAT against T’Gallant’s plans to expand its restaurant and wine business on the Mornington-Flin-ders Rd. T’Gallant succeeded at its second appeal to VCAT.

As well as ex-councillors and those who have previously stood for council, Peter Holloway is widely known. A National Trust stalwart and local historian, he has been active in the community for years. His issues include close scrutiny of rate rises, the need for an effi ciency audit of the shire

and shire debt reduction.First-time candidates include Dr Mark

Fancett, part of the fi erce and successful campaign to stop the Pioneer quarry in Dromana being used as a rubbish tip. He helped compile and present a powerful case against the proposal that saw off the plan – overwhelmingly rejected by the Environ-ment Protection Authority. The quarry is in Red Hill ward.

Of the others, Canadian Shawn Jackson, who runs a B&B in Red Hill has put his hand up because he is unhappy about how shire decisions affect his local community. Michael Treadwell, 27, has a degree in planning and environment and Rose Lju-bicic is a Greens candidate for Preston in the November state election.

Kerry Watson, secretary of Red Hill Community Action, is one of the pro-envi-ronment candidates – a contrast to Alastair Young, a builder/developer who calculates the shire has 465 green wedge lots that could have a house built on them.

Brian Morgan is a cricket umpire and bridge player not opposed to a foreshore pool; Kate Roper and Kylie Greer are pro-environment, Ms Greer having a special interest in placing curbs on the proposed Arthurs Seat Skylift.

Leigh Coleman has been aiming to de-velop his property at 1a and 1b Jetty Rd but is rumoured to be ready to sell the property; Darren Andrew of Safety Beach is an elec-trician who is also unhappy about how the shire is being run.

A fi nal point: for those to whom this is a concern, eight candidates live outside the ward. This writer believes that, in the era of mobile phones and motor cars, this is not a substantial factor. It has not deterred vot-ers in Cerberus and Seawinds wards from electing Cr Garnock (Mt Eliza resident) and Cr Gibb (Dromana farmer).

Record field for by-electionRecord field for by-election

THIEVES stole up to $300,000 worth of gold chains, watches, coins, rings and bangles from the Red Hill Greek Orthodox Church on Wednesday afternoon.

An iconic framed image of the Virgin Mary was left behind.The robbery occurred when The Reverend Father Eleftherios

Tatsis was farewelling visitors at the church’s front gate. The thieves are believed to have entered a side door and broken a sealed glass box to steal the items.

Detective Senior Sergeant John Coburn, of Rosebud crime in-vestigation unit, said police were appealing for public assistance to retrieve the items which had been donated to the church, on Arthurs Seat Rd, over the past 30 years.

A church spokeswoman, Georgie Marinis, described the thefts as “shocking”.

“We never thought anyone would take anything,” she said. “Now I am trying to put something back on the Virgin so people coming to the church on Sunday won’t feel as bad as we do now.”

The icon had been adorned by jewellery collected since the church was established in 1983. A recent photograph shows it covered with chains and surrounded by valuable items. This has helped police establish the value of the haul.

Ms Marinis said the church’s front door was always open, but that the thieves had entered through the side door before breaking the glass display case and grabbing whatever they could.

“They must have got spooked when the Reverend Father came back in because there was a trail of gold and jewellery leading to the door,” she said.

“We believe they must have been watching him go out – they were very quick.”

Normal police practice is to ask local pawn shops to be on the lookout for stolen items as the thieves attempt to offl oad their haul.

“If they try to resell it we will know quickly,” Ms Marinis said.“The most shocking thing is that the thieves may be members

of the congregation – that’s got the most ‘aggro’ around here. If it is a stranger we’d fi nd it easier to cope with.”

The richly endowed church – the Greek Orthodox Monastery of Panagia Kamariani (Constantinople) – has a façade of traditional byzantine stone. Also on the property are a rectory, historic dwell-ing and shedding.

There are 17 candidates to consider for the August Red Hill Ward by-election

Why vote Fancett?I stand as an independent. I have lived in Red Hill for 25 years and love this region. Many of us are frustrated by the level of inaction in our ward. I am motivated by the need for real community representation, more transparency in council process and for improved services to enhance our region for residents and visitors alike.

For Red Hill Ward I will push for:• Improved streetscapes and recreational spaces for our villages

(e.g. Balnarring Civic Court Reserve, Flinders streetscape, Red Hill Station Reserve)• Advocacy at both state and local government levels for improved public transport

e.g. connecting buses between Flinders and Balnarring for access to metropolitan transport services.• Better maintenance of our ward’s foreshores currently facing weed infestation, erosion and

sub-standard car parks.• Support and advocacy for our local community groups whose work is essential to making positive change.

For the wider peninsula I will push for:• • Commitment to the Interim Green Wedge Plan• Creation of habitat corridors to enhance biodiversity• Investment for our tourism industry to remain competitive• • Scrutiny applied to all major expenditure to keep our debt manageable• Keeping the pool off the foreshore

As former Vice President of Peninsula Preservation Group, I have a proven record in community and environmental advocacy. I have no tolerance for spin.

Let’s get moving.

Home ground advantage: An artist’s impression of the entry to the new sports pavilion to be constructed at Fruitgrowers Reserve in Somerville. Work will begin in August and is due to be completed by May 2015.

Work set to begin on new pavilionWork set to begin on new pavilionWORK on a new $1.6 million sports pavilion at Fruitgrowers Reserve in Somerville will begin in August fol-lowing announcement the construc-tion contract has been awarded to Melbourne builder 4 Dimensions.

Building works, which are slated for completion by May 2015, will triple the size of existing facilities from 157 square metres to 446 square metres.

Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors voted to approve 4 Dimensions Building Contractors of Mulgrave following a tender process in which four bids were lodged.

The new pavilion, which will be oc-cupied by Somerville Junior Football Club and Somerville Cricket Club, will include multipurpose change rooms for players and umpires, a so-

cial room, kitchen, kiosk, store rooms, amenities and public toilets.

The existing facilities, including a toilet block, shelter shed housing a kiosk and home change room, and a tin shed that serves as the away change room, will be demolished to make way for a single building with social room, multi-purpose change rooms, toilet and shower facilities, offi ce, store rooms, toilet for disabled person, kitchen/kiosk, fi rst aid room and external public toilets.

The project includes a number of sustainable design features, includ-ing low-energy lighting, heating and cooling to reduce greenhouse emissions, as well as water-effi cient taps, cisterns and rainwater tanks for fl ushing toilets.

Detailed plans were developed under the direction of a project steering group consisting of council and Somerville Junior Football Club and Somerville Cricket Club representatives.

Frankston architect MSM and As-sociates has provided architectural and building contract administration services.

To minimise disruption to local sporting activities at Fruitgrow-ers Reserve, sporting groups will continue to use existing facilities, including the temporary portable change rooms provided in 2012.

Once the building works have been completed, the temporary portable building will be relocated to Emil Madsen Reserve, Mount Eliza.

THE 7th Annual Somers Winter Mar-ket will be held at Coolart wetlands and homestead, in Lord Somers Rd, on Saturday 9 August from 10am-3pm.

Started in 2007 by creative parents raising funds for the Somers’ Pre-school, the winter market has grown to be one of the largest winter com-munity events in the Western Port region.

Around 30 stalls will sell an array of produce – all seasonal and home grown – as well as home-made clothes and jewellery. Other high-lights will include a live DJ A13 (A One Three) and guitarist Thomas Hugh, along with gourmet foods, other cool tunes and local beverages.

“This year we have set an ambitious goal to raise funds to complete the pre-school’s all-natural outdoor play area,” organiser Lily Bendevi said.

“Our aim is to create an atmosphere where people can relax in a space in which history and conservation unite. The market sprawls around the tranquil Coolart grounds. Visitors can explore the late Victorian homestead, try delicious winter foods, browse the handmade market stalls and enjoy live entertainment.

The family-friendly day also offers plenty of fun for the little ones with the children’s paddock at the heart of the market.

“We are giving families and visitors the chance to fi ll their shopping bags with heaps of goodies while support-ing a great local cause,” Ms Bend-evi said. “It also gives some of our stallholders the opportunity to start or expand a new business which is great for our town.”

SIXTY protesters braved the winter chill to rally outside Federal Environ-ment Minister Greg Hunt’s electoral offi ce in Hastings last Friday after-noon.

Led by a giant Nemo fi sh, the col-ourful group urged Mr Hunt to reject Adani’s Carmichael coal mine and the associated dredging and dumping of spoil in the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area.

Mr Hunt yesterday announced he had approved the mine’s development, saying a “rigorous, open and thorough environmental assessment process had been undertaken to take account of the public interest in the project”.

Greenpeace program director Ben Pearson told the rally the 28,000 hectare mine would be the biggest in Australia.

“The Carmichael mine is so large it requires dredging of three million cubic metres of sea-fl oor on the fringe of the Great Barrier Reef where turtles nest and dugongs feed, to pave the way for a new coal export terminal capable of handling hundreds of new ships,” he said.

The rally came soon after the organi-sation released a video which transi-tions Nemo’s normally peaceful envi-ronment to something akin to a food blender. Voiced over by actor Richard Roxburgh of Rake fame, the video has had more than 70,000 views.

Mr Pearson joined members of GetUp in hand-delivering letters to Mr Hunt from 60,000 people calling for the rejec-tion of the Carmichael mine proposal.

said Adani had proven itself to be an “irresponsible environmental opera-tor. It’s simple: Minister Hunt must not trust this company with our Great Bar-rier Reef”.

“At full export capacity, the project is expected to contribute almost $930 million to the Mackay region’s gross regional product and $2.97 billion to the Queensland economy each year for the next 60 years,” Mr Hunt said.

“It will generate an estimated 2475 construction jobs and a further 3920 jobs during the operations phase.

“The project has a lifetime resource value of at least $300 billion, and will enhance economic development opportunities throughout the region through indirect employment and training, and contract and supply op-portunities.”

Mr Hunt said it was estimated coal

from the project would provide elec-tricity for up to 100 million people in India.

Greenpeace said studies had found that dredging near coral reefs can in-crease the frequency of disease affect-ing coral. It said the United Nations’ world heritage committee was also concerned about the impact of dredg-ing in the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area.

Natural depthNatural depthA letter in the Western Port News by Bernie McComb (‘Port options’, 22/7/14) discusses the planned expansion of the Port of Hastings.

The writer raises queries over the shipping chan-nels and a range of other issues.

The shipping channel that provides access to Hastings has a declared depth of 14 metres. It is naturally deep, with the majority of it around 20 metres.

Mr McComb points out that other countries are taking steps to cater for larger ships and that is why the Victorian government has tasked the Port of Hastings Development Authority with undertaking the necessary planning for a new container port at Hastings, which has this natural deep-water access.

We will continue to engage with the community to provide information on this signifi cant project over the course of the project’s planning and devel-opment. For the latest developments, please go to www.portofhastings.com

MP with nerveMP with nerveI think {Flinders MP] Greg Hunt has a nerve turning up for a photo opportunity at the peninsula youth enterprises to celebrate 25 years of land care (‘Images capture Landcare story’, The News 22/7/14). His government has cut most of the funding from this very worthwhile program, so it could fi nance the Green army and the questionable carbon abatement scheme of tree planting.

Hopefully this will not be another pink bat disaster.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring

Port confusionPort confusionI am confused? Labor claims that if the port is built at Hastings it will create 40 jobs, but if they build it at Werribee it will create thousands of jobs (‘Labor divide over where to put port’, The News 15/7/14). Labor is clearly confusing jobs with the votes it wants in Geelong. Also how do we get the larger container ships being built now into Port Phillip? There is only 14 metres access depth at the heads - and much less depth through solid basalt to Bay West - compared to natural deep water channels of over 20 metres in Western Port.

Constant annual dredging would be needed to widen and deepen Port Phillip heads. As stated in

your article, the former head of the Port of Mel-bourne Corporation, Stephen Bradford, said “it could have potentially catastrophic environmental consequences”. Labor is just all over the place on this....as usual, its left hand has no idea what its right hand is doing.

Stefan S Borzecki, Somerville

No other choiceNo other choiceMelbourne and Victoria need a natural deep water port to cater for the container vessels of the 2020s which are being built now. How can the Labor shadow minister [Natalie Hutchins] even enter-tain the prospect of Bay West at Werribee? These ships would not get through Port Phillip heads. The constant and annual dredging required would make Port Phillip an environmental disaster, from what I have read from experts.

The natural deep water channels in Western Port are over 20 metres deep and would accom-modate these future vessels.

There is only one choice for a new port and that is Western Port.

John Bryce, Crib Point

Tourism jobs lossTourism jobs lossThe article ‘Labor divide over port’ (The News 8/7/2014) quotes the Labor candidate for Hast-ings Steve Hosking as saying he will back the multi-million dollar expansion of the port [of Hastings] if it will lead to more jobs in the area. He then goes on to say that it may mean as few 40 jobs. Hopefully this won’t be enough potential jobs to cause him to support this outrageous proposal. Labor’s spokeswoman for ports, freight and logistics Natalie Hutchins was reported in a

weekend newspaper report as saying, “the case for Bay West was compelling” and suggested that it would create thousands of jobs in Geelong. Mr Hosking has asked Ms Hutchins to help plan a jobs forum at Hastings. I wonder what these “thousands of jobs” will be and why they won’t be available in Hastings.

These confusing statements seem to be saying that while the Labor party line is against the siting of the port at Hastings, it could still go ahead if the “comprehensive and transparent cost-benefi t analysis to test Bay West against all other pos-sible siting alternatives” shows Hastings to be the favourable site.

Mr Hoskings seems to say that the port would not be a huge job creator, but a fully automated port with just a few operators.

Does this mean that he would not be in favour of the project?

I hope he is talking about net jobs after taking into account the potential loss of tourism after beautiful Western Port has been turned into a life-less swamp some years after the Port of Hastings becomes operational.

What about the jobs Australia wide that have been lost due to manufacturing being sent off shore so that we can import what used to made here in Australia?

I would happily pay more for t-shirts and plastic containers if it meant that it stopped some of this unnecessary movement of goods - or sometimes just inferior junk - all over the world.

At present there are many tourist operators around Western Port bringing hundreds of visitors to this beautiful and unusual place and providing many jobs. Western Port is a very popular fi shing

area with hundreds of people out in their boats enjoying the abundance of whiting, snapper and so on every fi ne weekend.

Where ever this new port is located, massive dredging will need to be done and while this is very harsh on the environment, I feel that the results of such a massive undertaking will be cata-strophic to the delicate balance of Western Port.

The mangroves are an important ecological feature of the bay as are the sea grass meadows and these are susceptible to build up of silt. The mangroves and sea grass provide shelter for hatching and growing fi sh and other sea creatures. But I guess with 3000 container ships ploughing through our beautiful bay each year, no one will be going out fi shing anyway.

We can only hope that Bay West is chosen as the best site for the port expansion and Western Port is left alone to stay as lovely as it is now.

However, I do feel sorry for the people in the west who have to suffer so that more cheap junk can be landed on our shores, only to end up as landfi ll.

Port call: Debate continues to rage of the location of Melbourne’s proposed new port. Picture: Yanni

THE Labor Party is promising a de-tailed economic study to determine the best site for Melbourne’s next major port if it wins the November election.

“Hastings requires substantial in-vestment in road and rail funding to get goods in and out, and without that ad-ditional investment the Nepean High-way and Dandenong Rail corridor will be fl ooded with trucks and trains 24 hours a day,” the party’s ports spokes-person Natalie Hutchins said.

Ms Hutchins’ comments were in-cluded in a statement issued last week after being briefed on the container port being planned by the Port of Hast-ings Development Authority.

Port Minister David Hodgett said it had taken Ms Hutchins 521 days to visit Hastings since taking on the role of Labor’s ports spokesperson.

He said Labor MPs were divided over the issue and called on the party to unite in support of expanding the Port of Hastings “and abandoning the pie-in-the-sky notion of Bay West, just as they did when they were in govern-ment for 11 years".

"Hopefully after this visit Ms Hutchins will understand why Hastings is the best location for the port expansion and can see the huge potential it has to bring jobs and growth to Hastings and the south eastern suburbs,” Mr Hodgett said.

Ms Hutchins said the state govern-ment was spending $110 million on studies to expand the Port of Hastings “despite no business case, no con-sultation with local residents and no plans for the road and rail investment required to accommodate increased freight traffi c”.

A two-year study released this month by Victoria University questioned the

viability of transporting containers to Hastings from industries west of Mel-bourne and said shipping companies would not be sending their largest ves-sels to Melbourne, negating the need for a deep-water port.

The study said investigations should be made into building another port on the western side of Port Phillip, but not necessarily the Bay West option being promoted by Labor.

“The Hasting port expansion is go-ing to cost an estimated $12 billion and take over 15 years to build, it will have a limited life span and will not service predicted freight volumes by 2050,”

Ms Hutchins said.“A Labor government will establish

Infrastructure Victoria to give inde-pendent advice on the best site option for a second container port.

Ms Hutchins said an expanded Port of Hastings would lead to 4000 trucks daily travelling across the city to Mel-bourne’s industrial north and west; 140 freight trains “thundering” from Hast-ings to Tottenham via Richmond, Flin-ders St and Southern Cross stations; “irreversible damage” to Western Port’s environment; and “untold dam-age” to Phillip Island’s nature parks and the tourism industry.

Victoria’s paramedics are highly skilled professionals who dedicate their lives to serving the community and helping out in tough times.

Ambulance Victoria and Victorian Government representatives have been negotiating with the ambulance union over a new pay deal for paramedics since August 2012.

To break the deadlock, the Victorian Government

has agreed with Ambulance Victoria to make a new

pay offer to paramedics.

This new offer is fair and reasonable. It includes:

• a sign-on payment of $3000 for full-time paramedics

(pro rata for part-timers and new employees) – this is

twice as much as the previous offer

• an immediate 6% wage increase

• an increase of 3% in July 2015 and a further

3% in July 2016 – a 12% increase in total.

Paramedics may also receive pay increases arising

from the Fair Work Commission’s arbitration of their

work value claim.

Paramedics existing terms and conditions will be

retained, so that they continue to receive:

• 10 weeks paid leave annually

• 10 weeks paid parental leave

• 6 months long service leave after 15 years service

• tax exempt benefits of up to $9000 a year.

Victorian paramedics will still be the only paramedics in

Australia to have access to guaranteed superannuation

benefits via a defined benefit superannuation scheme,

including a lump-sum option after 30 years of service.

These increases will mean an ALS Year 6 paramedic

can receive a total package of more than $110,000

a year (including rolled-in-rate, built-in overtime, FBT

exempt benefits and guaranteed superannuation

benefits – but not additional overtime). In addition,

paramedics will receive the $3,000 sign-on payment.

The Victorian Government is continuing to invest

in ambulance services, with funding provided for an

additional 539 full-time equivalent ambulance officers.

This new pay offer gives paramedics the salary

increase they deserve, maintains the generous terms

and conditions they enjoy today and recognises

the importance of the job they do protecting

and saving lives.

A HASTINGS teenager has been arrested and charged over the alleged theft of fi ve motorbikes from the Western Port region.

The 18-year-old man was charged in relation to the theft of four motorbikes from a rural property on the outskirts of Somerville in late June and the theft of single a bike from a Hastings property around the same time.

Police said all fi ve bikes had been located and recovered by their owners prior to the arrest of the man.

“The owners were able to use social media networks and contacts in the community to put pressure on the culprits to return them,” Senior Constable Peter Tyler of Hastings crime investi-gation unit said.

Police believe other individuals may have been involved in the thefts as well as the 18 year old already arrested. Investigations into the matter are continuing. SHOPKEEPERS are being warned to be on the lookout for counterfeit money following a number of incidents in Hastings and Frankston in recent weeks.

A 36-year-old man was last week charged after allegedly using a counterfeit $50 note at a Hast-ings supermarket.

Police were alerted after a cashier at Wool-worths detected the fake note on 15 July.

A Northcote man was contacted by police after being identifi ed from security footage.

He turned himself in to Hastings police station where he was questioned and later charged.

Senior Constable Dave Burton of Hasting crime investigation unit said the cashier had identifi ed the note as a fake due to its “texture and slight discolouration”.

He said a number of fake notes had also been detected by Frankston retailers over the past two weeks, following several other incidents earlier this year and late last year.

Anyone detecting notes suspected of being fake is urged to contact Hastings crime investi-gation unit on 5970 7850 or Crime Stoppers

POLICE are hunting a 46-year-old man of no fi xed address in relation to a series of alleged de-ceptions across the state.

Six warrants have been issued for the arrest of Martin Frost, pictured, who was last sighted in the Hastings area on Sunday 20 July.

Police believe Frost may still be in the area and have released his image in the hope members of the public may be able to help locate him.

Frost was last seen boarding a train from Colac about 1pm on Friday 11 July.

He was seen wearing a black Nike baseball cap, red vest and grey tracksuit pants.

Police believe he is still wearing the same clothing and driving a maroon Mitsubishi Magna registered NSM 280.

He is described as about 178cm tall with a solid build, blue eyes and a shaved head.

Anyone with information is asked ring 000 or contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

By Russell BennettIF it happens to someone you know, it can defi nitely happen to someone you love.

I haven’t had a conversation with Liam Davison in about seven years, but I was thinking about him the other day, and a number of other teachers, tutors and lecturers who have had an impact on me along the way.

What are they up to now? Who are they helping to inspire next?

Liam was one of the 37 Australians killed on Malaysian Airlines fl ight MH17. His wife Francesca ’Frankie’ was another.

I didn’t know Liam well outside my time at Frankston’s Chisholm campus, where I did the fi rst year of my profes-sional writing and editing diploma.

But learning in such a hands-on en-

vironment, I’m convinced, made rela-tionships spawned back then so much more powerful.

Liam – an award-winning novelist – taught creative writing, which often doesn’t – and at times shouldn’t – go hand-in-hand with journalism.

But what he also taught me was an ability to think outside the square and to be able to put it into words.

Yet I’m lost for them when I try to wrap my head around what happened in the sky above eastern Ukraine last Friday.

That Boeing 777 was full of people who made it their life’s mission to help others – whether they be teachers, stu-dents studying science or medicine, or delegates on the way to an AIDS con-ference.

Liam didn’t just infl uence me – he

had an effect on the lives of many of my friends – photographers, screen-writers, children’s book publishers, fi lm makers – the lot of us.

Most of us found out that Liam and Frankie were on board MH17 through a Facebook post than I’m sure left eve-ryone else as gobsmacked as I was.

And it was through that post that we were truly able to realise just how many people his, and Frankie’s, deaths affected.

Like most others, I’m sure, I couldn’t help but think of my own family and how I lucky I was to have them safe and sound.

Liam and Frankie are survived by two children in their 20s – Milly and Sam.

HUNDREDS of mourners attended a memorial service on Sunday for Frankie and Liam Davison, who lost their lives in the MH17 plane disaster.

Crowds fl ocked to Toorak College to pay tribute to the Mt Eliza couple. Mrs Davison, 54, was an English teacher at the school for 28 years. Husband Liam, 56, was an award-winning nov-elist and taught creative writing cours-es at Frankston’s Chisholm TAFE In-stitute for several years until 2007.

The commercial airliner the Davi-sons were passengers on was downed over battle-torn east Ukraine in the early hours of Friday 19 July. A sur-face-to-air missile is believed to have hit the plane.

Evidence suggests Russian backed separatists in the eastern European country thought the Malaysia Airlines plane was a Ukrainian transport craft.

Mourners including Frankie and Liam’s adult children, Milly and Sam, attended Sunday’s service at Toorak College’s upper playing fi elds.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott has vowed to bring home the remains of 37 Australians who were onboard fl ight MH17.

“By its very nature, it may take some weeks before we can honour the dead by returning them to those they

loved and those that loved them. But we will bring them home,” Dunkley Liberal MP Bruce Billson said.

Toorak College released a state-ment from the Davison family: “Liam and Frankie’s family have been ex-tremely touched by the love and sup-port received over the past week. In 2011 Frankie and Liam visited The Annapurna Self-Sustaining Orphan Home in Pokhara, Nepal, where they were both touched by the incredible work being done there.”

Mr and Mrs Davison supported the orphanage, which relies on donations, after their visit.

The family has asked wellwishers to donate money to the Nepal orphanage instead of fl owers.

Donations can be made to: Amelia Davison Annapurna Orphanage, BSB: 063 550, Account: 1036 2702 at bank branches or via online funds transfer.

MRS Emu is in from an outing and in a mood, judging by the forceful closing of the front door. She was off shopping and cof-feeing with friends on an expedition to the Great Shopping Centre and it appears not all went well.

Emu adopts a snoozing pose as drawers are rattled and cupboards slammed. But snoozing, faked or otherwise, is no defence against an irritated Mrs Emu needing to get something off her chest.

“Just imagine it!” she expostulates, bursting in on her recumbent spouse, who twitches realistically, as if in a slumber too deep to be interrupted. To no avail: Mrs Emu is no respecter of feigned sleep when in a mood.

“Imagine it!” she said again, with a “I know you're feigning sleep” edge to her voice. “I have to make an appointment. An appointment to have my electronic pad looked at. Have you ever heard anything like it? And all this palaver because the glass screen is broken.”

And Emu, it transpires, has a role to play in this appointment. First, he must make it. Then he will accompany his Blushing Bride to the computer store. He suspects he will be there for moral support.

At the appointed time on the appointed day they swirl into the store. “Have you an appointment?” a young female inquires. The imperious BB has swirled on, towards a counter marked Genius, leaving Emu to respond in the affi rmative.

At the counter Mrs Emu is breathing slightly heavily, glaring at three young swains attending to an attractive young female acting helpless, too absorbed to cast so much as a glance at the new customers. “Hussy!” mutters Mrs Emu, slightly too loudly.

Ten minutes pass before Mrs Emu's very

own Genius approaches, his luxuriant oiled curls gleaming, matching his smile. “Mr and Mrs Emu,” he breathes, “how can I help you today?”

Mrs Emu pushes the pad over the counter. Our Genius observes its smashed screen as David Attenborough scrutinises a spectacu-lar newly discovered insect. “Oh, dear,” he sighs. “How did this happen? What a shame.”

“Never mind how it happened, it's what happens now,” says the BB tersely. “I want it fi xed as soon as possible.”

Genius looks at us mournfully for a long moment. Clearly he has bad news for us. Clearly he is following the script learned at the training sessions Geniuses attend to gain their Genius certifi cate. “We don't fi x them,” he says. “We replace them.”

Mrs Emu, and her spouse, are genuinely startled by this revelation, and even more so by the next piece of news.

“We can replace this one for $300 or so,” he informs us. “I assume you have backed up all your data. Of course, that will be lost.”

Mrs Emu is struggling to comprehend. Lost data? What does this mean? “Can't repair?” she stutters incredulously. “It's just a piece of broken glass. Three hundred dollars – odd? For this we had to make an appoint-ment? Couldn't be told over the phone, or when I came in two days ago? Needed an appointment?”

Her voice is rising, her eyes are reddening. Any moment now, thinks Emu, she is going to do that terrifying serpentine manoeu-vre with her neck. Watch out for the beak,

Genius. But she doesn't. The Genius remains as

stationary and confi dent as a cat watch-ing the approach of small dog. His Genius course has covered Diffi cult Customers. “We can only replace,” he intones in a hard little voice, his brilliant smile fi xed. “Or you could put clear plastic to the screen so you don't get cut by the broken glass.”

Sensing Mrs Emu is vulnerable, he con-tinues. “Unfortunately we are out of clear plastic or I would put one on for you. But a shop on the ground fl oor stocks them” – he names the shop – “and I strongly recom-mend you acquire one.

“Thank you for calling by,” he says dismissively, all prospect of profi table com-merce gone, “and have a good day.”

The Emus adjourn to the ground fl oor, fi nd the shop, fi nd the plastic (“optical quality, $24.95”) and leave the Great Shopping Cen-tre, device unfi xed, plastic unpurchased.

“I've got clear plastic left over from cover-ing my cookery books,” the BB announces as we climb into the car. “Not optical qual-ity, but it will do the job.” The revelation that his bride possesses cookbooks shakes Emu. Her culinary output has always been rudimentary, he muses.

As the motor revs, she harks back. “And for that I had to have an appointment. An appointment! Soon we'll have to make an appointment for a pound of pork chops or a pair of shoes. We’re being conned!”

She begins to enumerate items one might have to make an appointment to buy. Emu presses the radio button. It bursts into life with Je ne regrette rien, the unmistakeable warblings of The Little Sparrow (Le Petit Moineau), the dreaded Edith Piaf.

Merde! Emu thought he had disposed of this hateful CD. And now his BB thinks he has actually come to like it. Merde encore!

An appointment? To buy pork chops?An appointment? To buy pork chops?

Racing: Mitchell Pratt practices for the Glasgow Commonwealth Games, where he competed in the 200m butterfl y fi nal.

PEARCEDALE swimmer Mitchell Pratt placed fi fth in the 200m butterfl y fi nal at the Commonwealth Games on Sunday morning.

As a member of the Australian swimming team, he trained in Manchester before moving to the games village in Glasgow for the opening ceremony.

Pratt attended Bayside Christian College in Langwarrin and graduated last year. He trains with the Tiger Sharks Swimming Club in Cranbourne under Ben Hiddlestone and is one of three club swimmers at the games.

The 200m butterfl y was his sole event.School registrar Julie Rebbeck said Pratt was a “fabulous”

student who joined the school in Year 7. He swam for his house and was a Tiger Sharks member from early on.

A younger brother, Cooper, is also at the school.

With the large amount of gyms now operating in the area, customers don’t need to travel to Frankston for their supplement needs.

I love talking to people about their training and listening to their personal achievements.

My supplement range will suit all people from those just starting out to the experienced, hardcore trainer.

The protein range includes quality Australian brands (including my own), which are a good, clean option without the fi llers.

I don’t just stock a great range of proteins, but also weight loss, pre-, intra- and post-workout supplements.

My clothing labels include Black & Blue, Irontanks and Mega Gym at realistic prices.

I also stock weight-lifting shoes, gloves, belts, wrist and

knee wraps and more.I’ve had great support

from regular customers and the feedback has been very positive.

A lot of customers who previously purchased their supps online are very happy to now have a shop to go to so they don’t have to pay for shipping and wait days to

receive their items. I’ll give customers a discount where possible and I’ll also be having regular sales. Parking is free and I’m located at Shop 7, 13 Eramosa Road West in Somerville, a few doors down from Subway. Open from 10am-6pm Monday to Friday and 9am-midday on Saturday.

HASTINGS Central Medical Centre received an award of accreditation in July from Austral-ian General Practice Accreditation Limited (AGPAL), a leading provider in accreditation services.

AGPAL chairman Dr Richard Choong said practices sought accreditation because they wanted to be the best and view it as another step toward excellence accreditation. He said the award showed the practice was making a signifi cant investment in quality on a day-to-day basis from the top down.

“Achieving accreditation is a major achieve-ment for any practice and it is clear demonstra-tion that Hastings Central Medical Centre is seeking to improve their level of service to both patients and the community,” he said.

Practice manager Muhammad Khalid said their success came down to team work. In order to achieve the endorsement, he said the practice team had worked for 12 months to imple-ment the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners (RACGP) Standards for General Practices, which is the recognised standard nationally for assessment for general practice.

“The RACGP standards requires practices to meet the criteria set by the RACGP in order to provide safe and quality care to the patients. This involves ensuring that key aspects of pa-tient care such as a recall and reminder systems are in place; ensuring vaccines are within their use-by-date and are stored in the correct tem-peratures; that the practice equipment is clean and sterile and the practice has emergency care available,” he said.

“We want to communicate to our patients that their wellbeing is our priority. By being ac-credited, our patients know we are committed to providing quality care that meets the RACGP’s standards,” he added.

Hastings Central Medical Centre proudly displays the AGPAL logo for all their patients to see.

The Hastings Central Medical Centre is currently bulk billing all patients. The surgery is located at 5/53 Victoria Street Hastings (ad-jacent to the Coles car park), and is open from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday to Friday and can be contactable on 5979 1801.

Western Port News 29 July 2014 PAGE 35

THE shire council is looking to overhaul policies governing public use of nature strips and road re-serves following a number of concerns raised by members of the public over pedestrian access and threats to the character of peninsula streetscapes.

A new draft policy and discussion paper on private works on nature strips and road reserves within Mornington Peninsula Shire was last week placed on public display for comment.

Shire mayor, Cr Antonella Celi, said the coun-cil had reviewed guidelines designed to “protect and enhance the public use and values of nature strips and road reserves” and was now asking for community input to help guide offi cial policy.

Cr Celi said the draft policy sought to raise the importance of protecting neighbourhood char-acter, heritage and biodiversity values from the adverse impacts of private works.

“Road reserves are public assets and serve a number of critical functions for the community,” she said.

“It is important that private works carried out on road reserves are undertaken in a way that pro-tects and enhances the values of nature strips and road reserves.

She said that any private works carried out on a road reserve should not compromise pedestrian or vehicular access and not restrict or limit ac-cess to existing or proposed services such as gas, water, telecommunications or electrical supply conduits.

“This policy applies to all road reserves under the control of council within the areas of the shire inside the Urban Growth Boundary, and includes information to assist applicants wishing to carry out works and Shire offi cers authorised to make decisions on applications.”

In a report presented to councillors at the most recent council meeting recommending the draft Private Works on Nature Strips and Road Reserves Policy to be placed on public exhibi-tion, the shire’s sustainable infrastructure direc-

tor, Alex Atkins, said it was important the public had clear guidelines guiding any works on public land.

“It is critical that residents and businesses seek-ing to carry out works or other activities on road reserves know what is required of them and that decisions regarding the approval of any works will be made in a consistent, equitable and timely manner,” he said in the report.

“Private interests or actions taken to develop and use road reserves must not prevent or com-promise the interests of the wider community.

“Road reserves are shared community assets managed in the public interest to protect and enhance a wide range of physical and aesthetic values.”

He said road reserves were also used to deliver a wide range of utility and environmental ser-vices and that while “council at all times seeks to promote and enhance community harmony” it must also simultaneously achieve “effi cient and effective utilisation of resources”.

“Providing a clear framework for decision making and regulating the manner in which de-velopment and use of road reserves occurs, as-sists to ensure that any works in road reserves are carried out in an orderly and considerate manner by all parties involved.

“Appropriate administration of decision mak-ing related to road reserves will help to promote fairness and equity for all interested parties.

“The draft policy attached to this report seeks to facilitate fair and equitable use of road reserves in a way that maintains and enhances the natural and man-made values present in every road reserve.”

Cr Celi said all peninsula residents and property owners were encouraged to comment on the draft policy and discussion paper and provide input into the development of the fi nal policy.

Written submissions may be made by 30 Sep-tember 2014, after which submissions will be considered by council.

A copy of the draft policy and discussion paper can be downloaded from: www.mornpen.vic.gov.au under the ‘Your Say’ tab.

Overhaul to nature strip useOverhaul to nature strip use

NEWS DESK

By Lance HodginsWHEN Hastings and Crib Point do battle this Saturday for the Ron Mon-crieff Shield, the players should spare a thought for the fi rst match ever played between the two neighbouring teams.

This took place at Hastings Park on Saturday 10 June, 1933, and it resulted in a win for the home team.

It was the fi rst year of the Crib Point Football Club following rumblings for more than a decade that a team should be formed.

Crib Point and Hastings schoolboys played a match near the end of the Great War, in July 1918, and, in a re-markably high-scoring encounter for those days, Hastings ran out victors 8-6 (54) to 5-10 (40). It is said that, after the match, the treats dished out by Mesdames Lewis and Davis were as memorable as the game itself.

The nearby naval base was under construction and Crib Point grew accordingly. A new store, several houses and a concrete wicket for the local cricket club were in place for the summer of 1921. There was a “possi-bility” that a football team might even share the new ground.

This was not to be, however, and the Flinders Naval Base team took all of the glory and publicity that games at Crib Point offered throughout the 1920s. There was obvious football tal-ent in the district but, in the absence of a locally-supported club, they were playing for neighbouring teams such as Hastings and Tyabb.

A breakthrough fi nally came on 10 February 1933 when about 40 people attended a public meeting in Crib Point’s Buffalo Hall with the express purpose of forming a civilian football

club. A committee was elected with C J Perry as president and J R Bell as secretary/treasurer. Surprisingly to modern “magpie” followers, the origi-nal colours proposed were a black guernsey with a yellow stripe.

Enthusiastic supporters held a pic-nic sports day at the recreation reserve to raise funds for dressing sheds and shelters, and this became an annual Easter event.

A practice session was arranged for a fortnight’s time, and a team was entered in the Mornington Peninsula Junior League. The junior league had been formed two years earlier to provide a game for those who might otherwise have gone to the 11-team rival football competition: the Penin-sula District Football Association.

The idea of a junior league might very well have come from a Crib Point request for their boys to play a Frankston team as a curtain raiser to a charity inter-League game. On the urging of the league president, Dr Haywood, and the other Hast-ings delegate, Gordon Whitlock, an informal junior league was formed in 1931 involving Hastings, Frankston and Sorrento.

Mornington played for half that season, and Tyabb left the Associa-tion to join in 1932. By the time Crib Point entered in 1933 there were eight teams in all: Crib Point, Hast-ings, Tyabb, Somerville, Pearcedale, Frankston, Sorrento and Moorooduc.

It would be more appropriate to call this junior league the second division,

as there were no age restrictions and, in practice, teams could “top up” with a maximum of fi ve senior players. There was no doubt, however, that many a young footballer gained valu-able experience on his way to more senior football.

In 1934, this was more formalised when the two peninsula competi-tions were amalgamated into A, B and C divisions. In their preparations for their fi rst game, Crib Point were inundated with clearances from exist-ing teams. In one batch, they gained N Peterson from Tyabb, T Minter from the Naval Depot, and a host of players from Hastings: G & D Anderson, W & A & J Wilson, L & J & W Stowe, R Osterlund, and J Perry. Their new captain, C P Everett, was cleared from Dunlop.

In their opening game on 6 May, Crib Point had a big win over Moo-rooduc 24-19 to 2-0 which put them on top of the ladder with a handy per-centage. Five weeks later they faced Hastings on their home ground. On a beautiful sunny day, a large gathering of football fans came up from Crib Point to support many of their play-ers they had watched playing for the Blues the previous year.

The game was played in good spirit, the pace being on from start to fi nish. Hard knocks were given and taken freely, but the umpire had full control of the game. Hastings played more forcefully throughout, showing good team work and better position play – no doubt helped by the inclusion of four regular senior players: Fred Smith, K Kasper, Harry Porter and Charlie Storey. J Rawlings played well for Hastings and was probably best on ground. Eustace Unthank

played a great acting captain’s game in the centre.

Basil and Cyril Ward,Peter Maw-son, Eddie Goss, Peter Wilson, Jock McMillan and Ray Hodgins also played well. Crib Point’s best were C Everett, S Barden, A & W Wilson and J Maher. They were well supported by J Perry, V Jones, Y Peterson and J Wilson.

The Hastings forwards had notice-ably fewer scoring shots, but their better accuracy meant that they ran out the winners 14-10 (94) to 8-19 (67).Goal-kickers for Hastings were F Smith (4), K Kasper (2), McMillan (2), A Perrott (2), P Wilson (2), C Sto-rey (2) and R Hodgins (2). For Crib Point, they were J Maher(4), S Barden (3) and Jack Wilson.

The teams that played in the fi rst Hastings/Crib Point game were Hast-ings: E Unthank (capt.), F Smith, E Fisher, B Ward, P Mawson, C Ward, P Wilson. H Porter, J Rawlings, C Men-tiplay, E Goss, K Kesper, C Storey, A Perrott, F Langholtz, R Hodgins, M Mills, J McMillan.

Crib Point: C Everett (capt.), V Jones, J Wilson, R Smith, M Peterson, T Maher, R Osterlund, J Griffi n, A Bourne, H Davis, J Altree, W Wilson, A Wilson, S Barden, R Hatwell, J Perry, M Minter, M Stewart, J Maher.

Footnote: In the home and away second round, Crib Point beat Hast-ings by nine goals. At the end of the home-and-away games, Crib Point had 10 wins from its 14 games to fi n-ish second on the ladder to Hastings with 11 wins. When they met in the second semi-fi nal, the spoils went to Hastings, who went on to beat Somer-ville in the grand fi nal.

PLANNING minister Matthew Guy has knocked back a proposal to subdivide land at Stotts Lane, Frankston South which would have carved up the green wedge land for residential development.

In August last year, Frankston councillors voted to ask the minister to consider Schutz Pty Ltd’s plan to subdivide 42 hectares at Stotts Lane.

An attempt to rezone the land on the eastern side of Stotts Lane for about 180 new houses was made more than 13 years ago, and was followed by similar failed attempts in 2004 and 2011.

The land is zoned Rural Conservation Zone and is covered by a Signifi cant Landscape Overlay. It is classed as part of the Mornington Peninsula Green Wedge despite falling under Frankston Council’s jurisdiction.

Opponents of the subdivision proposal said any development would have extended the Melbourne metropolitan area to the southern reaches of Baxter, erasing the rural gap between Baxter and Frankston.

Politicians across party lines opposed the development.

Defenders of the South East Green Wedge

secretary Barry Ross thanked federal Liberal MPs Greg Hunt and Bruce Billson and State independent MP Geoff Shaw, Liberal MP David Morris and Labor MP Johan Scheffer for their support in opposing the Stotts Lane rezoning.

He praised Mr Guy’s decision to reject the application.

“We applaud the minister’s decision which should act as a deterrent to the many land speculators who have clearly been waiting on the outcome of this application before pressing their own claims,” Mr Ross said.

Frankston mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, said council respected the planning minister’s decision.

“Council received a letter on 16 July from the Minister for Planning refusing the application, and we respect the Minister’s decision and the amendment will not progress,” he said.

Mr Guy’s letter stated: “The amendment would change the strategic direction for the area and is therefore inconsistent with State policy which seeks to protect the values of non-urban land, opportunities for productive agriculture and signifi cant landscapes within Melbourne’s green wedges.”

THE demonstration in tree and stump blasting with gelignite was very suc-cessfully carried out on Tuesday after-noon last the 28th inst. on Mr Gibson’s property at Hastings.

Although the day was showery, about 35 spectators assembled to wit-ness operations.

In all eight stumps and one tree were

grubbed and without one exception, those present were unanimous in their praises of the effective work done.

One particularly large stump was cleanly grubbed and shattered with a shilling’s worth of explosives, all the roots being run perfectly.

The spectators considered that it would have been a cheap job for twice the cost.

Small stumps up to 1 foot in diam-eter were blown out for 3d or 4d each.

Two large stumps, each about 3ft. across, were blown up simultaneously with the electric shot fi ring method.

The stumps were about 20 ft. apart and after connecting up the wires, which convect the electricity, all re-tired to a safe distance (about 50 yards).

As soon as the current was passed along the wires, the charges under the two stumps explodes simultaneosely and both stumps were seen thrown into the air in a dozen pieces.

The electric outfi t used at the dem-onstration was the property of Mr Kroronse, of Tyabb, and is for sale or else available for hire by the week.

Supplies of Noble’s Glasgow Gel-ignite, Fuse and Detonators may also be obtained from Mr Krcrousee who is the local representative.

***FRANKSTON Court of Petty Ses-sions was held on Monday last. be-fore Mr Williams JP. Francis Brown claimed £5 damages from John Gar-lepp for alleged unlawful assault on the 10th July on the Mornington Road.

Mr Lawrence Rostron appeared for the complainant, and Mr Kirby for Garlepp.

Francis Brown, the complainant said that on the evening of that day he es-corted Miss Walsh, whom he did not know, to her home.

She was accompanied by two home boys, and she told him that she had been annoyed by two men and that she was frightened to go home by herself.

She asked him to fi nd a young man named Bolger, whom she knew, but he was unable to do so.

He then said that he would go home with her, which he did.

He saw her safely inside the gate, and returned to the road, when he was assailed from behind and pushed on to his face on the road.

He got up, and encountered Garlepp in a fi ghting attitude, while another man, whom he could not recognise, was about ten yards away throwing clay at him.

Garlepp attacked him, and as a result he was again knocked over, and had a piece of skin knocked off his face.

He procured a billet of wood and his assailants decamped.

Constable McCorniack said that on the night of the 10th July the com-plainant came to the police station, and laid a complaint against Garlepp. His coat was covered in mud, and the left side of his face was cut, and blood was running from it.

The defendant was fi ned 10s, with 15s 6d costs, and 5s damages was awarded. Garlepp was also charged with an assault ou Brown on 11th July, in the billiard room of the Bay View Hotel, but in this case the bench de-cided to dismiss the case.

Rage against the washing machineFOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

By Stuart McCulloughMost appliances are harmless. A toaster would gladly be your best friend given the chance. In fact, if you were to unexpectedly become a hobo at short notice and set off on a cross continental journey carrying noth-ing but a swag and a water bottle, a toaster would happily trail behind and keep you company the entire way. Or it would, at least, if it had legs. A food processor can’t do enough for you. It’s practically falling over itself just to help out. Televisions are just like windows but better. Kettles hold the unique distinction of being the most yin and yang of all appliances in that they boil water and yet simul-taneously soothe the soul. But there is one household white good that should not be trusted. When it comes to this particular piece of domestic hardware, never let it near the steak knives and avoid turning your back on it at all costs. It’s mean and angry and will never be your friend. I speak, of course, of the washing machine.

It’s the Incredible Hulk of applianc-es. It sits there, all harmless and inert until forced to do its job at which point it becomes unspeakably angry. It starts slowly with little more than a gentle whir; like a merry go-round for your clothes. But before you know it, the whole contraption works itself up into a writhing, foot-stomping tizz that falls just short of a somersault as it goes fl at-out berserk. It’s as though it’s throwing a spectacular tantrum that would surely earn it a spell in time out were it not for the fact that

it was already in the least attractive room in the house. It’s as though it’s trying to have its way and is eternally annoyed at the fact that it has to wash dirty clothes whilst other appliances get all the glamour jobs.

At Tyabb, the washing machine was bigger than the fi rst car I owned. It also had a greater top speed. Given that it had to deal with the dirty

clothes of seven people, it had a lot to be angry about. The laundry was (and still is) just near the dining room table and it was not unusual for us to be working our way through a plate of meat and three vege only to be interrupted by a sound that resembled Dorothy’s Tin Man stuck on ‘The Gravitron’ and trying to squash a mouse. When it got really worked up,

it made a shrieking sound reminiscent of the shower scene from Psycho. Plates would tremble and peas would leap from forks in search of safety as an avalanche of sound that gave the impression that hell’s own portal had just been prised open fi lled the house. To hear it, you’d think it was the apocalypse rather than just the spin cycle.

More than just wail and scream, our machine made frequent attempts to escape. It never succeeded. It must be said that it’s not easy getting over the razor wire and past the guard dogs when you’re chock-full to the brim with school uniforms and PE gear. Not that our machine didn’t give it a pretty good try. It was a common occurrence to fi nd that it had broken loose from its moorings and was pressed up against the door. Sadly, though it travelled the length of the laundry, it never went any further. It’s the curse of not having hands, I guess. The poor thing was probably hoping for the day one of us accidently left the door open and it could, once and for all, makes it break for freedom.

Maybe that’s the problem. Perhaps washing machines don’t have severe anger management issues so much as they simply long to be free. It doesn’t seem too much to hope for. Besides, they’re always in the worst spot in the house. Sometimes, they don’t even get a room to themselves. I once lived in an apartment that had a so-called ‘European laundry’. As it turns out, ‘European laundry’ is an especially fancy way of saying ‘cupboard’. Or,

to those of you who’ve ever rented in the metropolitan area, a ‘studio apart-ment for an affordable budget’.

For decades, humankind has contemplated what the world might be like if apes were to rise up and conquer human civilisation as we know it. It’s a question fi rst posed by Pierre Boulle’s novel, ‘La Planete des Singes’, which was later turned into the movie ‘Flashdance’. But the same book was also the basis for the fi lm starring Charlton Heston, ‘The Planet of the Apes’. To this day, it’s a theme that continues to fascinate people. But the real question is this: who’s to say that monkeys pose the biggest risk? Unless you’re Michael Jackson (and, let’s face it, who is?) primates don’t live inside your house. Apes don’t know you so well that they’re intimate with all your dirty laundry. Washing machines, on the other hand... If you think about it, the threat is clear – washing machines are preparing to attack.

The day when both front and top loaders alike rise up against their human captors cannot be far away. That’s why we need to get in fi rst. People get hysterical about free-range eggs, never realising they’re holding someone hostage. The time is now. I say we should set our washing ma-chines free. To let them throw off the yoke of servitude so they can roam in packs over the open plains. It’s a delicate matter, but these machines have a cycle for ‘delicates’. Go, dear machine; go and be free.

By Angela KellyOUR world at the moment is far from a peaceful place. We read each day of the heartbreak of lost lives and broken families as the tragedy unfolds of the downed MH17 over Ukraine farmland. This loss of life coupled with the hor-rifi c stories from the Israel-Gaza confl ict have profound effects on our children due to the extensive media coverage that has become so prevalent in our world. The 24-hour news coverage results in graphic and immediate images of these and other major national or world calamities being broadcast into our homes. My concern is that these confronting images, viewed in the safe haven of our homes, impact on the hearts and minds of our children witnessing these types of graphic events.

Large-scale tragedies can be extremely disturbing to children, who thrive on predictability and security. When exposed to these catastrophic events through the media, children often display fears and anxieties. Usually, these reac-tions are normal; however, without proper assurance, the impact of events can remain with children for a long time, even throughout their lives. With the appropriate support and guidance, however, children can become resilient and strong in dealing with issues and this can ready themselves for their unknown life circumstances throughout their futures.

At these times when your chil-dren are showing outward signs of distress, it is important as parents

to be able to understand and ease your children’s fears and con-cerns. It is important to express your love a little more than usual and be available as much as possible to them. Your children are greatly infl uenced by your

reactions and if you can remain calm and speak to them about your own feelings this is a great comfort. The most important thing for your children at these times of crisis is the opportunity to express thoughts and feelings. Answering

their questions in the most honest way you can is always going to be the best possible response for them. Teach your children that people do harmful things, but being violent or killing people is never acceptable. And it is impor-

tant to offer them hope about their world and to encourage them to see the good things in their own lives and to remind them of the love that surrounds them within their family, their extended family and their friends.

NEPEAN LEAGUEBy Toe PuntCRIB POINT proved once and for all on Saturday that it is a genuine premiership contender after knocking over Dromana for the second time this season.

The Magpies answered everything that the reigning premier threw at them on Saturday at Crib Point Reserve before hanging on to win another thriller, 17.6 (108) to 14.19 (103).

The fi rst time the sides met, Crib Point kicked the last goal of the game to win by one point.

Now, looking at the scoreboard, it would appear that the Tigers squandered opportunities and probably deserved to win.

However, it couldn’t be further from the truth. The Tigers did squander opportunities in front of goal, however they certainly didn’t deserve to win the game.

Crib Point was clearly the better team over four quarters and followed instructions to the letter.

Dromana didn’t seem to listen to a lot of what coach Doug Koop had told them and the result was their third straight loss.

Every time the Tigers challenged the home team on Saturday, the Magpies were able to respond with a couple of goals of their own to regain the gap.

Crib Point led at every change and Dromana didn’t hit the front once in the contest. The closest they got was within two points in the last quarter.

The Pies booted the fi rst four goals of the game before the Tigers had entered their attacking 50.

Crib Point went into the match without Glenn Boyd for the second week, which saw Luke Herrington and Jon Flack swapping between full forward and on the ball. Both fi nished with four goals and they were instrumental in the win.

Brad Davidson also lit the place up, as he so often does, with a couple of clever goals. He too fi nished with four, while the domination of James Cook in the ruck was instrumental.

Cook was wonderful at the centre bounces and around the ground. He beat three opponents in Baldwin, McGrath and Gaertner. McGrath went off the ground in the second quarter with what appeared to be a shoulder injury. He didn’t come back on.

The undersized Crib Point defence was superb also. Dean Warry, Matt Sloper and Zac Dekluever all gave away height but they couldn’t be matched at ground level.

The Magpies’ style was to bring the ball to ground, run, spread and ‘blow-up’ the Dromana opposition. It was also a case of play-on at all costs.

The Pies have backed their fi tness all season and while Dromana appeared to be running them down in the last, it was Crib Point’s running game that saw them kick two goals to seal the game.

Dromana lacked system going forward and while the coach was pulling his hair out on the sidelines

because his forwards kept leading wide, it made little difference.

There were four players that kept Dromana in the contest. Paul Minchington was clearly his team’s best player in the middle, Call Park was extremely good, Christian Ongarello gave great drive from half back and Terry Wheeler was dominant.

There just wasn’t enough support from anyone else.

Dromana will get back Michael Falconer and Ash Waterstone this week, while Andy Kiely is another two weeks away. Stuart Cleave (shoulder) is also a chance to play before fi nals, although it is considered doubtful.

The Magpies should get back Boyd in the next couple of weeks and Aaron Murray would be a wonderful inclusion into this footy team.

Hastings season is fi nished after being beaten by Frankston Bombers on Saturday.

To say the Blues have been disappointing this season would be an understatement.

On Saturday, Hastings was beaten by a team that was more committed, desperate and unifi ed.

At no stage were they really in the contest and the scoreboard of 10.10 (70) to 7.9 (51) refl ected that.

James Degenhardt was outstanding again for the Bombers while Corey Micari and Mitch Bosward were also in fi ne form.

Taylor Stratton was again the Blues’ best, while Luke Hewitt and Steve Charalambous have found some

consistency of late.Grant Masterson and Mick Haddad

were both in the reserves, as was Mick Agnello, who was dropped after announcing his retirement before the Rosebud match.

Rosebud’s season is also fi nished after it went down to Sorrento by six goals.

The Buds were held goalless in the fi rst half, however, booted six goals to fi ve in the second half to go down 6.6 (42) to 12.6 (78).

Leigh Poholke and James Hallahan booted three each for the Sharks. Hallahan was the best player on the ground, while Dave Lawson and Tyrren Head were also at the top of their game.

Tom Baker was his team’s best while Dan Hickey play a great game against his old side.

A big wasted season for the Buds, while Sorrento now seems to be motoring towards fi nals.

Rye is also starting to motor and sured-up a place in the fi nals with a 13.15 (93) to 6.9 (45) win against Devon Meadows.

Panthers’ coach Brent Clinnick announced his resignation through the week, however, it wasn’t enough to spur his team to an unlikely win.

The Demons kicked away early and stretched their lead at every change.

Aaron Findlay was a handful with four goals while Ben Cain and Leigh Morse were also very good performers. For the second time this season, Adam Kirkwood tore his hamstring. They

need to put him on ice now until fi nals.Teenager James Doria made it fi ve

goals in two senior matches with another two while Pat Boland and Brian Wapshott were outstanding.

Pearcedale led Somerville all day on Saturday until it mattered most, the fi nal siren.

The Eagles booted 3.5 to one behind in the fi nal quarter to win 13.12 (90) to 11.12 (78).

Adrian Ridout was the difference between the sides with six goals for the Eagles, while Justin Farrelly was outstanding in the ruck.

Pat Heijden was great for the Panthers with four goals and Pat Cadd and Chris Fortnam fl ew the fl ag for four quarters also.

In the fi nal game, despite resting six top liners, Red Hill managed an 18.20 (128) to 2.8 (20) win against Tyabb.

The Yabbies were held goalless until the fi nal quarter.

The Hillmen went into the game without the likes of Dan McNamara, Michael Mock, Josh Mold, Jarryd Eames and Sean Holmes.

It mattered little as the Hillmen had 18 scoring shots in the fi rst half and 20 scoring shots in the second hour.

Jarryd Douglas fi nished with seven for the winners while Jake Mold and Marcus Dal Lago were also fi ne contributors.

Justin Volk was Tyabb’s best, while Tyson Sparkes continues to impress. Adrian Clay, Nick Taranto and the more experienced Ash Souter and Craig Conlan worked tirelessly also.

PENINSULA LEAGUEBy Toe PuntEdithvale-Aspendale is four points clear of Bonbeach and Mornington in second place on the Peninsula League ladder after coming from behind to beat the Dogs on Saturday.

The reigning premier now has 11 wins from 14 matches, while the Sharks and Dogs are a further game back.

Frankston YCW maintained its position at the top of the Peninsula League ladder after beating Seaford. They are a game clear of Edithvale (12 wins and two losses).

The fi ght for fi fth place continues, although Mt Eliza now is a game clear of Langwarrin.

The Redlegs will fi nish at least two games clear of the Kangas by season’s end with games against Karingal and Seaford to come in the fi nal four rounds.

Langwarrin has Seaford this week but fi nishes with Edithvale, Mornington and Frankston YCW.

The big game on Saturday though was that between the Eagles and the Dogs at Regent Park.

Edithvale got away to a fl ier and led by 23 points at quarter time and extended that to 24 points at the long interval.

Mornington came out fi ring in the third quarter, booted 4.4 to four behinds and scores were locked

together at the fi nal change.By the halfway mark of the last

quarter, the Doggies had edged their way in front by seven points and looked the stronger of the two teams.

However, the Eagles found an extra gear in the fi nal 15 minutes of the match, kicked the next four goals and recorded an 11.14 (80) to 9.14 (68) victory.

Teenage star Darcy Warke was superb for the Eagles with two goals and a dominant display, while Todd Woodbridge, who had spent a couple of weeks in the twos, stood up most when it counted in the last quarter.

Adam Budge had also missed a few games and he kicked a very important goal in the last quarter to put the Eagles in front.

Eagles’ coach Troy Shannon said it was another important victory.

“You have to beat the best sides in the competition if you want to achieve what you want out of a season,” said Shannon.

“We should have put them away in the fi rst quarter but we just didn’t convert our opportunities. Instead of being four goals up, I thought we should have been six or seven in front.

“I was pleased with our ability to be able to get going again when the game was on the line.

“They (Mornington) had all the momentum and we were able to get

that back. Even more pleasing was it wasn’t the same old players that got us out of a hole.

“It was guys who have struggled of late, got another opportunity and really grabbed it.”

Shannon said Mornington was a “very good side”.

“Mornington has a never-say-die attitude and that’s a really good trait to have as a footy side,” said Shannon.

“I’d like to think that we are a bit the same and it was two teams having a real crack.

“They have a great blend of bigs, smalls, experience and youth and they are going to be good for a while.

“I think the bigger decks will suit them better too,” said Shannon.

Dale Nolan booted four majors for the Doggies and was among his side’s best, while Chris Paxino and Jai Haddock were outstanding.

Bonbeach bounced back from a horrible defeat last week to easily account for Langwarrin.

The Sharks got away to a wobbly start and were outplayed by the Kangas in the fi rst quarter, however, took advantage of their limited opportunities and went in at the fi rst break ten points up.

By half time, the game was over with the Sharks leading by 40 points.

Langwarrin rallied in the second half; however, it wasn’t enough to

bridge the gap, going down 14.10 (94) to 8.9 (57).

Corey McQueen booted three goals for the Sharks while the stars including Ricky Ferraro, Shane McDonald, Anthony Raso, Paul Rebeschini, Dylan Jones and Jackson Casey all dominated.

Nick Tuddenham was again in the best for the Kangas in only his fourth game, while usual campaigners in Dan Wehner, Michael Parker and Jarryd Amalfi worked tirelessly.

Once again, it has been proven that the Kangas are a long way off the top four sides of the competition.

Mt Eliza replaced Langwarrin in the top fi ve after smashing Chelsea to the tune of 63 points.

The Redlegs took control of the match early and extended their lead at every change, winning 20.7 (127) to 9.10 (64).

Scott Lockwood booted fi ve goals while Benny Lean played his best game for some time with four majors.

Bryce Hayes and Zallec White aren’t names we know a lot about but they too were dominant for the Redlegs on Saturday, as were seasoned campaigners Darren Booth and Rohan Heasley.

Robbie Lancaster and Todd Gardiner were the best of the Gulls, as was Jason Clark, who rarely plays a bad game.

Pines took a while to shake off Karingal on Saturday but still managed to get the four points, winning 10.14 (74) to 4.16 (40).

Guy and Beau Hendry booted fi ve goals between them while Jamie Messina and Adam Ludewig dominated.

Scores were locked at 4.8 (32) apiece at half time before the Pythons booted 6.6 to eight behinds after the break.

George Angelopolous was the Bulls’ best with two goals while Michael Burke and Aaron Paxton also worked hard.

In the fi nal game, Frankston YCW worked over Seaford, winning 14.15 (99) to 6.9 (45).

The Tigers did well to go with the Stonecats in the fi rst half with only 12 points separating the sides at the break.

However, with Kyle Hutchison and Jai Coghlan celebrating milestone games, the Stonecats turned up the heat after the long break and dominated the next hour.

Byron and Anthony Barry were outstanding in the win, while Riley Hodson and Craig Nankervis were also dominant.

Aaron Walton booted two goals and was Seaford’s best, while Brad Doyle and Josh Stokes were also among the votes.

CRIB POINT FNCBy Jared Newton IN many ways, Saturday’s game shaped up as Crib Point’s great-est test of the season. On top of the table against the reigning premiers, the Magpies were the hunted, no longer the hunters. Instead of being the team clawing their way to a win from lower down the division, they were the team out in front to be chased down.

The end result was no different to many other games this year for the Magpies. They just snuck home by 5 points. But unlike the other wins, they led all day and it was Dromana threatening to come from behind to pinch the win.

It was a good test for the Pies to see their mettle tested against a quality side and be the ones forced to protect the lead. In a game that swung from end to end like a fi nals contest it was Crib Point who skipped away at fi rst and early in the 2nd quarter it looked like the Pies were going to coast to a comfortable win.

However, every time the Pies looked like they had control Dromana responded with successive goals of their own.

Like all Cribby games it was a nail biter to the end and after Dromana hit the post late in the last, the Pies took the ball for-ward for the siren to sound to the relief of the home crowd.

While Crib Point never trailed throughout the match, the Ti-gers could consider themselves a tad unlucky as they had enough opportunities in front of goal only to kick themselves out of the game. For once the Pies were accurate in front of goal which proved the difference in the end.

Flack had another blinder and is the form player of the com-petition with his fi ve majors on the day. Herrington slotted four from the middle. Warry had a great tussle with Bruhn and ended that contest with a split points decision. Davidson showed why he gets the big bucks with some clutch goals. Big Jim Cook dominated several opponents in the ruck and Arnold’s grunt work through the middle makes his on ball teammates walk a few inches taller.

The team is defi nitely fi nals bound and the top 3 is almost ce-mented. The percentage could be a factor but if the four points keep rolling in this won’t matter.

This week the Pies go head to head with arch rivals Hastings in a huge weekend for both clubs. Hastings are hosting a reunion day and the royal Blues will turn out in full force. If the Pies win this week the double chance is all but assured.

Local footy will be at its best this weekend. If you’re a neutral footy observer looking for a good arvo of entertainment this Sat-urday, get yourself to Thomas Barclay Oval for a look.

HASTINGS FNCBy Phil StoneSeniors Hastings took on Frankston Bombers this week and our season was on the line. The game was played in shocking conditions and the ground was heavy so it was always going to be a slow-paced and contested game.

Unfortunately we didn’t come away with the points.Every time we had some momentum in the game we gave it up with silly free kicks or dropped marks. Mentions go to Mully, Berry, Chara and Hewitt who all had good games.

Reserves We travelled to Frankston Bombers to see who deserved to take third spot in a very important game for the young blue boys’ development and to see if they could match it with the top sides running towards the end of the season.

The Blue boys came out fi ring, sending the ball Into the forward line over a dozen times without making the most of their chances to be a goal or two in front at quarter time.

They were urged to spread more in the forward line because of the condi-tions and stay in front of the opposi-tion because it was hard to get clear entry in very soggy conditions. Sud-denly, things started to click with a fi ve-goal quarter to go into half time fi ve goals in front.

Frankston came out fi ring in the second half but the reserves managed to take the edge off the game in the fi nal quarter by slowing play down.

In the end the boys earned a fan-tastic win in very trying conditions. The 29-point win was good enough

to take third spot on the ladder. With plenty of good players on the day it would have to be said the result came down to a great team effort. Go Blue boys.

Under 18s Tyabb-Hastings Under 18s played host to Red Hill in wet condi-tions in round 14.

Tyabb-Hastings collected their fourth win of the year in a terrifi c last quarter come from behind win.

A 30-point turnaround secured the satisfying win. A bruising contest both sides were reduced to 17 players with injuries and a yellow cards.

Co-captain Wade De La Haye stood up giving a stirring three quarter time speech and lead from the front when he found ball in hand. Bailey Hender-son and Kayne Lewis also had great games in the backline, giving their best performance of the year.

Being 12 points adrift early in the fi nal quarter, to come out 18 point winners was a huge effort.

The boys will look forward to the grudge match next week against cross town rivals Crib Point.

This week sees Hastings up against Crib Point at home. It’s the club’s 1700th game and we welcome all supporters to what will be a great day for our club.

A luncheon will be held at 12-2pm, cost is $40 per person. Numbers are building so book now with the club.

Guest speakers will be Richard Everist talking about the history of the club in his own words and Doug Ackerly who will be talking about his newly released book on the great man John Coleman.

Go Blues.
