For Cap And Country
Feb 04, 2020
For Cap and Country and its publication is about the importance of generosity, sportsmanship, perseverance and community to help us achieve our goals in life as much as in sport. Australian Test players, past and present, open up about the road from their backyards to the baggy green. Breathe in the mowed grass and linseed oil as they take their first steps to glory. Share with them the euphoria of their cap presentations. Immerse yourself in the wonder of Test triumphs and the despair of being dropped form the team. In sharing the players' stories - and disclosing how treasured Australian caps are kept under lock and key, in dank cupboards and stuffed in undies drawers - Jesse Hogan takes you inside their lounge rooms as well as cricket's dressing rooms. Their stories contain salutary lessons for the game's future. As such, this is a conversation about Australian cricket as much as it is a chat with its best players. And at its heart is the unifying force of the cap, under which all players are equals, no matter if they've played 168 Tests like Steve Waugh, or one like Bryce McGain Just two weeks before the first draft was completed, tragedy struck. Chair: Katrina Flinn

New Rotary Program: End Hepatitis Now
Feb 25, 2020
Did you know that viral hepatitis affects almost half a million Australians and that, in Victoria, about 6 people die every week of hepatitis related causes - more than the State’s road toll? Hepatitis Victoria and Rotary Melbourne have joined to achieve the World Health Organisation’s goal of eliminating viral hepatitis by 2030. With a cure now available for hepatitis C and a vaccination for hepatitis B, this global goal is achievable if community awareness can be raised. A Hepatitis Victoria educator and a lived experience public speaker will present at the meeting on Tuesday 25 February to raise awareness, address the problem of stigma and discrimination in the community and encourage people to seek testing and treatment.

UnstoppaBULL, World Record Holder, Explorer, Adventurer
Mar 17, 2020
'After surviving a day in the Death Zone, adventurer and explorer Dan Bull completed an unguided ascent of Mt Everest in his 20s. He has since made numerous first ascents up unclimbed peaks in uncharted locations such as northern Greenland, and has successfully tackled some of the world's most dangerous mountains. Among them, the infamous North Face of the Eiger, a vertical mile of brittle rock and ice in the Swiss Alps, nicknamed Mordwand in German, literally, 'Murder Wall'.
Dan now plans to take record-breaking to new heights, literally, as he attempts to make history, again, with his latest record-breaking attempt: The Highest Swim. Dan will continue to push his mind and body to the limits as he battles against a chilling assault on the senses and endeavours to swim in the highest lake on Earth and become the first person to swim above an altitude of 6,000m / 20,000 ft.
Nicknamed Unstoppabull by his sisters, Dan has an unrelenting desire to push limits and test the boundaries of what is possible. He has been awarded multiple Guinness World Records for his achievements, all accomplished whilst overcoming a debilitating childhood condition to demonstrate firsthand that Anything is Possibull'.

Apr 28, 2020 12:45 pm - 1:45 pm
It has been more than 100 years since construction began on the Great Ocean Road. It was built of WW1 veterans (the original ANZACS). The road is not only one of the most travelled tourist destinations but it has also been called the greatest, longest war memorial in the world. We are fortunate to be hearing from film makers Jacquiline Tonks & Clare Falkiner about the making of their documentary The Storey of the Road which reveals some of the stories behind the war heroes who came back home from WW1 to build a remarkable legacy. A most appropriate topic being just after ANZAC Day.

The NBN In Our Area
Jun 02, 2020
Back By Popular Demand! The NBN will be installed in our area around this time...you may have further questions for Wally. Wally is part of the nbn local Community Affairs team in Melbourne.
He writes: 'My role is to meet with local community and residential groups to help educate them about nbn and what it means for them. The purpose of this initiative is to ensure the community has all the necessary information during the rollout of the nbn network and have the ability and a forum to ask any questions and troubleshoot any problems you might have.
The presentation will be followed by a Q&A that covers some critical areas such as: • What is nbn • What it means for the members and how to connect • How the nbn affects your existing landline phone and medical alarms • Power outages • Scams to be wary of.
*Just to clarify, this service is purely for the benefit for the members. We are not here to sell anything as the nbn is the wholesaler (not a phone or internet provider). ' *

Forensic Archaeology, Some Case Studies
Jun 09, 2020
Dr Louise Steding teaches Criminology and Forensics at Swinburne OnLine (SOL) for Swinburne University of Technology. A forensic specialist, she combines criminology and forensic archaeology in search and recovery methods. This involves detailed research, landscape interpretation, criminal profiling, use of ground penetrating radar, excavation techniques and human bone recognition. Her methods are applied to unsolved cases of deceased missing persons. Louise's doctorate also joins criminology and archaeology, to examine perspectives of crime, punishment and prison design, along with access to resources and interior spatial relationships within historic institutions. She has worked with juvenile offenders and as an osteo-archaeologist. Much of her mainstream archaeology had to do with our convict past, prisons, and excavation of human remains from Colonial Australia to the burial grounds of Renaissance, Bronze Age and Neolithic Europe. Louise has served on the National Membership Committee of the Australian Association of Consulting Archaeologists Inc (AACAI) and as Chair of the AACAI Branch for New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. She is also a full professional member of the Australian and New Zealand Forensic Science Society. *Book here: https://www.trybooking.com/

‘Rotary’s Four-Way Test: A Theoretical and Practical Critique’
Jun 16, 2020
After referring to the origins of Rotary’s Four-Way Test, the presentation poses the question whether it remains a relevant and practical guide to decision-making in the modern world. This question is examined by analysing each part of the Test through the lens of ethical theory. Four ethical theories on how we should answer the question ‘how should I act?’ are described. Each theory is applied to the four parts of the Test to see whether they assist in developing options that satisfy the Test. Finally, a decision-making process for satisfying the Four-Way Test in ethically complex or ambiguous situations is proposed. |

'Changeovers are one of the best occasions in the Rotary calendar.
Not only are they great social and fellowship occasions, but they give members and guests the opportunity to reflect on our wonderful organisation of Rotary, its goal of achieving world understanding and peace, and most importantly, the achievements we have made in our local communities and across the world.
Changeovers also give us a time to recognise and thank the outgoing President, his/her team, and all those who helped during the year.
It also gives us time to recognise and encourage those who have put their hands up to ensure the future success of our clubs, the District and our wider international organisation'. |

The first meeting of the year will showcase our latest project, comfort care packs for Alfred Hospital Mental Health Care Unit. Come along to show support for our new Club President Tilak Dissanayake who will tell us why he is so passoniate about assisting those people in the local community that are less fortunate and then he will will introduce Bronwyn Stephens Past District Governor . This project is consortium of clubs led by Bronwyn (who developed this project) and the Rotary Club of Melbourne South. We will show a video detailing the project followed by some Q & A. The Alfred Hospital Mental Health Unit has 1,200 admissions annually, many patients admitted have no care items. Around 40% of admissions are homeless. Even if not homeless, 68% of patients arrive as involuntary patients so they are not prepared for a stay at the hospital- the average stay is 17 days. Therefore, our project purpose is to provide a welcome care pack providing toiletries and comfort items. We want patients to know that the staff and wider society care about them and wish for them to be comfortable and recover.
