Check out their website to get a better understanding of their suite of services and outstanding portfolio of work at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.mcmahons.net.au⁠⁠Paul Mogford came into golf course architecture from a landscape architecture background. It was after reading an article written by the late great Peter Thomson that, as Paul puts it, "lit a flame". And so began his pursuit to work in the golf course architecture industry.This conversation with Paul explores some of Paul's work as an architect such as Metropolitan and Sanctuary Cove, and there's a brand new project soon to start. We also explore his partnership in business with Neil Crafter where they would ultimately become Crafter + Mogford, and I have an interesting question for Paul to close out our conversation, which is met with an equally interesting answer!This conversation will keep you entertained and maybe even asking yourself some questions, particularly at the end, so get comfy, put your ears on and join us as we go deep!You hit 'em clean and we'll keep 'em green!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper - Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Golfing Greenkeeper TV - YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Send me an email to - thegolfinggreenkeeper@gmail.comPeople and places mentioned in this podcast:⁠Crafter + MogfordDan Soutar - top100golfcourses.comWentworth Falls Country ClubRiversdale Golf ClubAlex Russell - top100golfcourses.comMetropolitan Golf ClubAvondale Golf ClubThe National Golf Club - Moonah CourseTara ItiTom DoakSociety of Australian Golf Course Architects (SAGCA)Rosanna Golf ClubHarley Kruse - SAGCA ProfileRoss Perrett - SAGCA ProfileLinks Hope IslandNeil CrafterHeritage Golf and Country ClubThe Sands TorquayGlenelg Golf ClubSAGCA Golf Architecture MagazineSanctuary Cove Golf and Country ClubThe Dunes Golf LinksSt Andrews Beach BrewerySt Andrews Beach Golf CourseNewgreens ChatswoodBougle RunRoyal Melbourne Golf ClubAlister MacKenzieDuntryleague Golf ClubEP.198 The Design Brief - Harley KruseEP.143 Keeper of the Greens - Keegan PowellEP.75 Keeper of the Greens - Tim WarrenEP.69 Sustainable Golf - Monina GilbeyEP.78 Keeper of the Greens - John MannEP.95 Keeper of the Greens - Richard ForsythEP.145 Keeper of the Greens - Craig GeeveEP.150 Keeper of the Greens - Full Turf Nerd with Craig Geeve

Joining Nevena as co-host this week,  live in the studio this morning is Rachel Payne, Legalise Cannabis Victoria MP for the South-Eastern Metropolitan Region. Beyond her leading advocacy on drug policy reform, Rachel has been a persistent parliamentary voice calling for greater government integrity, the ending of internal police self-investigations, and urgent support for Victoria’s overburdened justice system—including our volunteer Justices of the Peace. Good morning, Rachel, and welcome back to Saturday Magazine on JOY. IBAC Reform & Police Misconduct Oversight Victoria's anti-corruption framework currently sets a high legal bar for IBAC to investigate misconduct. Historically, over 95% of complaints made to IBAC regarding Victoria Police are referred back to Victoria Police internal affairs (Internal Integrity Command). In 2023, IBAC commenced independent investigations into just 23 out of over 4,000 allegations. Rachel introduced the Independent Broad-based Anti-Corruption Commission Amendment (Functions) Bill 2026 to strip away barriers that force IBAC to bounce complaints back to the police force. She has also pushed to expand IBAC’s powers to cover broader misconduct, follow-the-money powers, and hold public hearings without extreme statutory restrictions. Systemic Misuse of LEAP: Payne has previously highlighted instances where police officers inappropriately accessed the Law Enforcement Assistance Program (LEAP) database to stalk or harass victim-survivors, arguing that independent oversight is essential to ending systemic abuse. The State of Victoria's Justices of the Peace (Honorary Justices) The Crisis: Victoria has a severe shortfall of active Justices of the Peace (JPs) compared to other states. Victoria has under 4,000 registered JPs (with fewer than 2,000 actively operating), whereas states like Queensland and NSW maintain tens of thousands. Public Impact: JPs provide essential, free volunteer services—witnessing statutory declarations, affidavits, and certifying legal documents. The severe shortage in growth corridors like the South-Eastern suburbs leaves vulnerable community members, elderly residents, and people without regular internet access struggling to execute legal documents. Parliamentary Action: Payne sponsored petitions in Parliament calling on the Attorney-General to fund and reform the Honorary Justice Services Support unit to prevent the collapse of the volunteer JP network.

Här har vi möjligen NHL:s jämnaste division, så det finns många intressanta detaljer att analysera för att komma fram till vilka lag som går vidare till slutspel från ”Metro”. Men utöver en preview av dessa åtta klubbar, så blir det även fokus på en rad stora kontrakt som har skrivits den senaste veckan – och snack om det faktum att Connor Hellebuyck vägrar dyka upp på Winnipegs camp.

St Maxim was born in the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1888. At this time all Orthodox Churches had been captured and subjected to the "Unia," by which, though keeping the Orthodox liturgical rites, they were united to the Roman Catholic Church. Many of the Carpatho-Russian people were ignorant of the change and what it meant; others were unhappy with it but, in their subject condition, saw no alternative. Maxim's farmer parents, at great personal sacrifice, obtained an education for him that enabled him to study for the priesthood at the Basilian seminary in Krakow. Here he discerned the un-Orthodox nature of the "Greek Catholic" training there and traveled to Russia, where he became a novice at the Great Lavra of Pochaev and met Archbishop Anthony (Khrapovitsky), who encouraged him in his quest for Orthodoxy. (Archbishop Anthony, after the Russian Revolution, became the first Metropolitan of the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad). He entered seminary in Russia in 1905 and was ordained to the Priesthood in 1911.Metropolitan Anthony, knowing the hardships and persecutions that awaited any Orthodox priest in Austro-Hungary, offered to find Maxim a parish in Russia. But Maxim was already aware of the hunger for Orthodoxy among many of the Carpatho-Russian people; several people from his village had travelled to America and while there had attended Orthodox Churches and confessed to Orthodox priests. They begged him to return to his country and establish an Orthodox parish there.   When he returned to his native village of Zhdynia, the polish authorities, seeing him in the riassa, beard and uncut hair of an Orthodox priest, mocked him, saying "Look, Saint Nicholas has come to the Carpathians!" But the people of nearby Hrab sent a delegation asking him to set up an Orthodox parish in their village. This he did, setting up a house-church in the residence that the people gave him. Almost immediately, he and his people began to be harassed and persecuted, first at the instigation of "Greek Catholic" priests, then of the government. His rectory/church was closed, and he and several of his parishioners were repeatedly jailed, sometimes on trumped-up charges of sedition. (The Carpatho-Russian people were always suspected of pro-Russian political sympathies by the Austrian and Polish authorities).   Despite these persecutions, through Fr Maxim's labors a wave of desire for Orthodoxy spread through the region, with many Carpatho-Russians openly identifying themselves as Orthodox. The government issued orders to regional mayors to forbid those who had identified themselves as Orthodox to gather and, in 1913, appointed a special commissioner whose task was to force the people to return to Catholicism.   In 1914, war broke out between Russia and Austro-Hungary. Despite lack of any evidence that Fr Maxim had engaged in pro-Russian political activity — he once said "My only politics is the Gospel" — he was arrested and executed on September 6 by the Papal calendar, August 24 by the Church Calendar. He was denied any form of Church burial, and his father buried him with his own hands.   Following the First World War, Orthodoxy became legal in the new Polish Republic, and a monument was placed over Fr Maxim's grave in his home town of Zhdynia. In 1994, the Orthodox Church of Poland officially glorified St Maxim.

Next sitting week, the Victorian Parliament will receive the final report from the landmark Inquiry into Historical LGBTIQA+ Hate Crimes—a pivotal moment for justice, accountability, and healing in our state. Meanwhile, our community also came together recently to celebrate the incredible grassroots advocates, volunteers, and leaders nominated at the GLOBE Victorian Community Awards. To discuss what he's seen, and what he'd like to see, is Aiv Puglielli, Victorian Greens MLC for North-Eastern Metropolitan Region and spokesperson for Equality. Aiv is joining Saturday Magazine to discuss the upcoming report from the Victorian Parliamentary Inquiry into Historical LGBTIQA+ Hate Crimes (tabled next sitting week) and celebrate local leaders following the GLOBE Victorian Community Awards. LGBTIQA+ Hate Crimes Inquiry: The inquiry investigated historical hate crimes, police responses, anti-LGBTIQA+ violence, institutional accountability, and redress for victims/survivors. Aiv and the Greens have pushed for clear, actionable recommendations: formal state apologies, restorative justice frameworks, dedicated cold-case resources, and mandatory hate-crime recording mechanisms. GLOBE Victorian Community Awards: Celebrating grassroots achievements across community leadership, advocacy, sports, and business. Provides a upbeat counterweight to the sobering inquiry topic. Greens Equality Platform: Pushing for legislative protections against hate speech/vilification, increased state funding for community-led peer support, and structural safety across public spaces.

Speranza Scappucci"MiTo Settembre Musica"www.mitosettembremusica.itCompie vent'anni il festival che ogni settembre unisce Milano e Torino in un unico racconto musicale, e per l'occasione MITO SettembreMusica affida per la prima volta la propria direzione artistica a una interprete anziché a un organizzatore: Speranza Scappucci, direttrice d'orchestra tra le più richieste sulle scene internazionali, guiderà il festival per il biennio 2026-2027. La sua prima edizione, in programma dal 6 al 20 settembre nelle due città, porta un titolo che è insieme dichiarazione di poetica e chiave di lettura del cartellone: Harmonia. Non un'armonia intesa come assenza di conflitto, spiega Scappucci, ma come "relazione tra voci diverse, equilibrio costruito attraverso ascolto, attrito, movimento" — un rimando, non casuale, al mito della dea nata dall'incontro tra Marte e Venere, la guerra e l'amore ricomposti in accordo.Il programma, oltre sessanta appuntamenti tra sinfonica, cameristica, repertorio barocco, prime esecuzioni e proposte per le famiglie, si apre con un gesto di forte segno simbolico: il War Requiem di Benjamin Britten, il 6 settembre al Teatro alla Scala e il 7 a Torino nell'Auditorium Rai Arturo Toscanini, con l'Orchestra Sinfonica Nazionale della Rai diretta da Simone Young e un terzetto di voci di primo piano — il soprano Elena Guseva, il tenore Allan Clayton, il baritono Bo Skovhus. Non un caso che a inaugurare l'anno dell'armonia sia proprio la partitura che Britten scrisse come atto di pacificazione, cucendo la liturgia latina ai versi di guerra di Wilfred Owen. Spigolando tra gli altri appuntamenti, il festival tesse le ricorrenze del 2026 — Britten, ma anche Hans Werner Henze e Maurice Ravel — dentro un disegno che intreccia grandi nomi ed emergenti, sale storiche e spazi meno consueti, in un dialogo tra le due città che resta, dal 2007, la cifra identitaria della manifestazione.Speranza ScappucciNata a Roma nel 1973, si forma come pianista al Conservatorio Santa Cecilia e poi alla Juilliard School di New York, per poi approdare alla direzione d'orchestra attraverso l'esperienza di maestra collaboratrice nei maggiori teatri d'opera. Debutta nel 2012 con Yale Opera, prima direttrice donna nella storia dell'istituzione. Da allora ha diretto al Metropolitan di New York, alla Staatsoper di Vienna (prima italiana a farlo, nel 2016), alla Wiener Staatsoper, all'Opéra di Parigi e alla Canadian Opera Company. Direttrice musicale dell'Opéra Royal de Wallonie di Liegi dal 2017 al 2022, nel 2022 è stata la prima direttrice donna a salire sul podio della Scala. Dal 2025 è direttrice ospite principale della Royal Opera House Covent Garden di Londra. Commendatore della Repubblica Italiana dal 2016 e Chevalier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres francese dal 2021, ha condotto su Rai 3 il programma "La gioia della musica". Dal 2026 è direttrice artistica di MITO SettembreMusica.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Jiunn, Seth and John discuss their blind review experience with the Ferio Tego Metropolitan 30 Years https://developingpalates.com/reviews/cigar-reviews/team-cigar-review-ferio-tego-metropolitan-30-years/

The MMSD commission chair explains what lies ahead for the audit of the district and the company that runs its wastewater treatment plants.

Death is never an easy topic to talk about, but it's one of the most important conversations we can have.In this episode, we unpack the emotional and financial realities of funerals in South Africa, the burden that often falls on families when there isn't a plan in place, and why having honest conversations about death can be one of the greatest acts of care for the people we leave behind.We also explore how cultural expectations can add pressure during an already difficult time, and what it really means to prepare for the inevitable with dignity and intention.This episode is brought to you in partnership with Metropolitan. We take a look at the Metropolitan No Lapse Funeral Growth Plan, a flexible funeral solution designed for people with irregular incomes, including freelancers and those in the gig economy, and discuss how products like these can help ease the financial burden on loved ones when it matters most.

Drop us a line! Let us know your out there!Scott, Greg, Larry, and Anthony are back in the humidor, and this time the smoke of choice is the Ferio Tego Metropolitan Limited-Edition 30 Years — because apparently regular cigars just weren't cutting it for this crew anymore. Buckle up, this one's a full ride.We finally get to open that listener letter — you know, the one from the guy we roasted a little (okay, a lot) last episode. Spoiler: he didn't just take it, he clapped back. Respect where it's due — the man showed up and brought receipts. We're reading it live, unedited, and reacting in real time.Meanwhile, Scott rolled back into town from a Dominican Republic cruise looking suspiciously tan and suspiciously smug, and Anthony survived his very first-ever cruise — to Ensenada, of all places — and lived to tell the tale (barely). Naturally, the two travel stories collide into a full-blown comparison of who had the better trip, who packed the better cigars, and who made the more questionable life choices at sea.As always, expect zero filter, a whole lot of bull, and the kind of banter that only three guys who've smoked way too many cigars together can produce. Grab something worth 30 years of aging, pour something strong, and settle in.Follow us on Facebook and Instagram!Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/LoomisCigarCartelInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/loomiscigarcartel/OREmail Us at info@loomiscigarcartel.com

Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber, and Shaun Morash open Thursday's show by breaking down the Mets' meltdown in Queens and wondering just how Steve Cohen, David Stearns, & Carlos Mendoza got themselves into this mess.

What a week. After the excitement yesterday of the PK news, and the co-sanctioning with the PGAT (along with the DPWT), and what that could mean, we've got plenty to run through. And given that, we thought we'd kick off the show by chatting to Tour Pro, and Peninsula Kingswood royalty, Marcus Fraser about how it came about and whether the excitement levels are off the chart. Marcus reveals that there has been offers before for events at PK, but the board decided to wait for the right event, and that has paid off. Whilst the course will play as a composite, he is yet to have a decent look at the routing, however he said the excitement around the club is huge. For Hostplus, the AO at PK is our plus for golf this week.Mark questions why the even need the composite approach, which he and Nick discuss.This weeks BMW Touch of Class is easy. Last week, just after we recorded the pod, we heard the news that the legendary Brian Twite from Metropolitan had passed away only 2 months shy of turning 100. Mark tells a great story about getting in trouble from Brian when he (Mark) was a mischievous kid doing what mischievous kids do, and being chased by Brian on a motorbike on a golf course!Mark read this week that LIV are saying that they have a number of Australian sponsors who are interested, and Mark asks Nick - where have they been for the last decade ? On LIV, with rumours (unsubstantiated) of money not forthcoming to wrap up the season, what could that mean were it to occur. Mark read this week about the details of Jon Rahm's LIV deal, the numbers are mind-blowing, and Nick describes them as 'silly'.Nick and Mark discuss how it is disappointing that the prizemoney in Australia today, is pretty much what it was 30-years ago.It is US Open week, we touch on it briefly today - not because we're not excited but because we'll do a preview pod over the next day or two and get into some real detail about the tournament. We do discuss Shinnecock, and some of the adjustments to the course - particularly the widening. Nick describes this course as 'brutal'.After the turn, as if he needed another reason, Mark has found one to criticise the world feed over. Nick reckons Charlie Woods may well be on the bag in the US Open, that would be interesting.Nicks Top 5 this week for Betr, and he lists his Top 5 memorable moments from Australasian players, one player makes two entries! For Southern Golf Club, into feedback:Ron has a fun fact about Nelly Korda's win a week or so back, Ken and John each have some feedback on Marks 'Swatters' Top 5 from last week, we hear some great stories about Sandy Lyle. Lots of feedback on our video from The Furrows last week - see it here - Gards, Angela, and Pete loved it, Wolfpacker Mark has a question for our Mark about his putter, and Ali Whittaker, commentator extraordinaire, enjoyed Nick showing different shots for how different people play. And on The Furrows video, a whack from Soph for one team member who gets a little defensive over it.The overwhelming feedback was that you want more of that sort of stuff, so we think one a month might be good....let us know in the comments if you reckon that would be worthwhile (or not).Message, and a request, from Simon over the international feed, and Mark goes rogue and lays the blame for the international feed's very existence at the feet of one person. He names the person who he blames, and explains why he believes that said person is responsible. Ouch.Few more bits of feedback, Darren on the 3-club challenge, Dodgy on the 7-club tournament idea, and Stephen has what is essentially a crack at Nick O'Hern...!PING Globals from Nick, not a hugely busy week in golf, but a few things going on around the world. Mark read a tweet from Ryan at Monday Q on 'Why Cuts Matter' which he discusses, and Nick and Mark discuss the strategy behind attempting to qualify for a major.And for the Golf Clearance Outlet, Marks masterclass is on 'finishing balanced'.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:Hostplus, Talk Birdie To Me's official retirement partnerBMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;The Find My Player app - follow every player on every tour;And Southern Golf Club.

In his day there was great disorder among the princes of Russia and in the Russian Church. One of the rival princes appointed a monk named Kim as Metropolitan of Kiev without seeking the blessing of the Patriarch of Constantinople, as was still done at that time. The Patriarch sent Metropolitan Constantine to investigate, and he deposed Kim and banished the priests whom Kim had ordained. This led to strife among the people, some of whom supported Constantine, some Kim. Finally, at the request of the princes, the Patriarch sent a third Metropolitan, and both Kim and Constantine were removed.   When Constantine died in 1159, his will ordered that he not be buried, but cast out to be eaten by dogs, since he felt that he was guilty of sowing discord in the Church. Horrified, but unwilling to go against his last wishes, the people threw his body outside as he had ordered. During the three days that it lay exposed, Kiev was wracked with thunderstorms and earth tremors, in which eight people were killed. Finally the Prince of Kiev ordered that the Metropolitan's body be buried in the church, and the weather immediately became calm.

A.M. Gittlitz is an organizer and writer whose work focuses on the counterculture and radical politics. He is also the author of the New York Times bestseller "Metropolitans: New York Baseball, Class Struggle, and the People's Team," a love letter to the New York Mets and a sweeping study of New York City through the electric and often calamitous history of the franchise. Gittlitz joined NY1 political anchor Errol Louis and political director Bob Hardt to discuss the book, which traces the Mets' origins back to the 1880 Metropolitans and the class-coded nature of early baseball leagues. The conversation also explored the franchise's modern founding through Robert Moses' vision for Flushing Meadows–Corona Park and the deliberate branding of the Mets that later became associated with the New Left.

United Kingdom correspondent Lucy Thomson spoke to Lisa Owen about how another Labour MP has weighed in on Keir Starmer's leadership and how the Metropolitan police have revealed the scale of efforts to deescalate two rival protests held in London. She also spoke about how England is preparing for the annual Watercress Festival.

Saint Epiphanios was born a Jew in Palestine, but he and his sister came to faith in Christ and were baptized together. Epiphanios gave all his possessions to the poor and became a monk. He knew St Hilarion the great (October 31), and traveled among the monks of Egypt to learn their ways and wisdom. The fame of his virtue spread so widely that several attempts were made to make him bishop, first in Egypt, then in Cyprus. Whenever Epiphanios heard of these plans, he fled the area. He was finally made bishop by means of a storm: told to go to Cyprus, he took ship instead for Gaza, but a contrary wind blew his ship directly to Cyprus, where "Epiphanios fell into the hands of bishops who had come together to elect a successor to the newly-departed Bishop of Constantia, and the venerable Epiphanios was at last constrained to be consecrated, about the year 367." (Great Horologion). He guarded his flock faithfully for the remainder of his life, working many miracles, defending the Church against the Arian heresy, and composing several books, of which the best-loved is the Panarion (from the Latin for 'bread-box'), an exposition of the Faith and an examination of eighty heresies. He was sometimes called the 'Five-tongued' because he was fluent in Hebrew, Egyptian, Syriac, Greek, and Latin.   Saint Germanos was the son of a prominent family, in Constantinople. He became Metropolitan of Cyzicus, then was elevated to the throne at Constantinople in 715. It was he who baptized the infant Constantine, who for his whole life was nicknamed "Copronymos" because he defecated in the baptismal font (though he was neither the first nor the last infant to do so). At this incident, Patriarch Germanos is said to have prophesied that the child would one day bring some foul heresy upon the Church, which he did, becoming a notorious iconoclast as emperor. Germanos openly opposed the decree of the Emperor Leo the Isaurian which began the persecution of the holy icons. For this he was deposed and driven into exile in 730. He lived the rest of his life in peace. Saint Germanos is the composer of many of the Church's hymns, notably those for the Feast of the Meeting in the Temple.   These two Saints are always commemorated together.
