L ast week I was contacted by two young locals who had been shortlisted for the ‘Best Job in the
World’ competition.Mia Warren explained that the competition for six different positions had generated
over 600 000 applications from across the world, which the organisers had shortlisted down to 150.Wow, being a judge must have been one tough gig – so I could see why Mia was so pleased.I had a look at the individual categories to see how many Australians had made the cut. On average about two to three per category, 17 in total, so when I found out Jake Philpott from Mooloolah had been shortlisted as well – I got thinking a bit more about the statistics.
It is pretty cool that they are the only two Sunshine Coasters chosen, and after a bit more chatting with Mia I discovered that both she and Jake had gone to Beerwah High; Jake was in a higher grade and had known Mia’s brother.So two former Beerwah High students out of a total of only 17 - hang on this means that almost 12 per cent of the successful Australian candidates came from our very own back yard! I always say we are definitely an area made up of outstanding individuals – so I say on behalf of us all – great job guys, good luck and I know that your family and friends and the rest of your community will be hoping you both go the whole way!

Pain in the back?Is your back often stiff and sore? Does it take a while to get out of bed in the mornings? Have you given up hobbies you once enjoyed because the pain just isn’t worth it? Do you feel older than you really are? If so, we may be able to help.
It is estimated that approximately 85 per cent of the population will experience low back pain at some stage of their lives. Despite its prevalence, it is by no means normal to experience any level of pain on a regular basis.
The normal state of the human body is vibrant, healthy, and pain-free. If you are not feeling this way, something is pushing your body away from normal. We are all well aware that diet and exercise are key factors in keeping our bodies feeling great.
What most people don’t know about is Spinal Subluxation, a term chiropractors use to describe dysfunctional vertebrae in the spine. This is a very common condition that pushes the body away from functioning normally and feeling great. Subluxations can be caused by old or new injuries, but most often are caused by repetitive stresses of everyday life. Low back and pelvic subluxations can also lead to further symptoms, such as hip and knee pain, or digestive troubles.
There are many causes of back pain, and each cause requires a specific treatment. If your back pain is caused by Spinal Subluxation, the chiropractic adjustment is the only therapy that will correct the cause.
To find out if Spinal Subluxation is the cause of your decreased quality of life, call Adjust to Life Chiropractic today, or visit www.adjusttolife.com.au

Just as we went to print last week, we received the news that local stalwart, Nev Anning had passed away. Nev who turned 96 last November, was well known and respected, particularly in the Beerwah and Peachester communities, and in 2011 he was honoured with the naming of the new overpass bridge at Beerwah as the Nev Anning Bridge.Nev moved from Wynnum in Brisbane with his family to the Sunshine Coast as a teenager and lived a very full life in our hinterland area. He has left a huge legacy to so many parts of our community including the Beerwah – Peachester RSL Sub-Branch, the Maleny Rotary, the Caboolture Show Society, the Peachester History Committee and the Paint Horse Association.From an early age Nev immersed himself in the Beerwah and Peachester communities. In 1941 Nev was shipped to Singapore and sadly became a prisoner of war and was there for 3½ years. It was during his time at Changi that he worked on the construction of the aerodrome and also in the nail factory. Nev was a true survivor, he returned to Australia in September 1945.
A cherished mug from the bush
By Lea Parkes
Upon his return home, he met his lovely wife Cynthia and returned to life as a tree cutter. He then became a farm hand who progressed into a skilled and productive builder, and then a business man running a chicken abattoir.Even in retirement he achieved much – throughout his life his ‘never quit attitude’ continued to shine through.He is survived by his wife, Cynthia, and his children, Susan, Kay, Janis, Ronald and Helen together with 11 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Nev was an amazing man and as I know many in our community would like to pay tribute to him, we will include these tributes in next week’s edition.

Dedicated to propertymanagement
CCTV is on the Chamber’s agendaGlasshouse Country Chamber of Commerce are concerned as to what they see as an increasing level of crime faced by the small business owners in each of the local townships over the past 12 months.Chamber President, Bob McLean said many of our local business owners who are already doing it tough – believe that it is important to reduce the amount of anti-social behaviour like graffiti and break-ins, and they see the use of CCTV technology as a way of keeping our towns safe.The Chamber recently formed a sub-committee including Terry Morrow from Landsborough Pub and bottleshop, David Coultis from Mellum Munchies, Beerwah Locksmith Adrian Korst, Rick Gazzard from Beerwah Hotel and bottleshops, and Bob McLean from Social Influence Consulting Group to work on the issue.“A number of the sub-committee members have already installed significant CCTV networks and other systems to protect their premises, and customers,” said Terry Morrow. “Although effective, an integrated system would maximise the benefits.”“The group believe a partnership between all levels of government and the chamber to support and resource the initiative would deliver a clear message on unacceptable behaviour and in turn reduce its impact,” added Bob McLean.The chamber have already raised the issue with our local Councillors and state members – and last week the group were able to raise their concerns with the LNP candidate for Fisher Mal Brough when they engaged in a street walk, meeting with business owners who were victims
of property damage and break-ins over the Easter weekend.Mal has assured the group that if a coalition government wins the next election, Tony Abbott has agreed that funds will be made available for monitoring.Mal identified that the locations he believed required this technology were Landsborough, Beerwah, Glass House Mountains and on the coast, at Mooloolaba.“Currently the Glasshouse Country Communities are serviced by a number of individual private and public CCTV surveillance however if these services were integrated for monitoring they would be more effective,” Terry Morrow said.“This partnership would benefit all residents, and lower the level of risk contributions when insurance premiums are calculated.“The chamber's goal is to have the risk assessed as low as possible for all five post codes in Glasshouse Country,” he said.

The gold medal winning relay team from Maroochydore
Glass House’s own champion surf lifesaver By Greg Brown
GCNews regularly brings you stories on the achievements of our talented local sportspeople.However, being a hinterland community newspaper, it is not very often we get the chance to feature someone’s efforts in a purely coastal sport like surf lifesaving.So it is with great excitement that we are able to introduce you to Mitchell Harvey – our very own Australian champion surf lifesaver.Mitchell, 17, from Glass House Mountains, won a gold medal in the Open Lifesaver Relay at the recent Australian Surf Lifesaving Championships held at Kirra beach on the Gold Coast.Starting Nippers at the age of 13 with the Maroochydore club, Mitchell says that he earned his Bronze Medallion and now loves the volunteer shifts at the club on weekends, and has been involved in many rescues during that time.“Surf lifesaving is a great way for me to keep fit and active and I’ve made some great friends over the years.“It gives me an opportunity to give back to the community whilst improving my surf, beach and first aid skills,” he said.Being an avid all-round sports-lover, he has always liked athletics and has represented his school at local, district and regional levels.Mitchell was the Open District School Athletics Champion and Beerwah State High School Age Champion (swimming and athletics) in 2012. Mitchell completed the Athletics Excellence
Program in Years 8, 9 and 10, which he believes has contributed to his achievements in both track and beach events.But it’s surf lifesaving where Mitchell has really hit his straps. The Australian Championships was only the third competition he had competed in – so to come away with a gold medal is a fantastic effort.
His parents, Michael and Leanne Harvey, are very proud of his achievements.“None of our family has ever been involved in surf lifesaving – so we don’t know where he gets it from,” said Leanne.“We originally wanted the kids to gain better water and surf safety skills; and learn how to read and ride the waves. Mitchell has a natural ability for any sport but I suppose living in the hinterland, surf lifesaving is not something everyone considers for their kids.“Michael and I are extremely proud of Mitchell and his achievements. As a new competitor to surf lifesaving carnivals, Mitchell had no expectations other to achieve a personal best but coming away with a gold medal is fantastic and has strengthened his desire to continue in this sport,” said Leanne.Leanne thinks surf lifesaving is a great choice for other parents to consider.“I would very much encourage both parents and children to join surf lifesaving. As a volunteer, you only need to dedicate a few hours one day per month (over the season) to do patrols and your club will teach you the skills you need to save a life.“I have found that, for Mitchell, the sport has expanded his social and athletic skills and achievements, stepping him out of his comfort zone and trying something new. As well, he’s made lots of new friends and he feels enjoyment and accomplishment when saving someone life.”
New entertainment combines with traditional fun at the Maleny ShowEveryone who comes along to the show has a few favourites ‘must dos’ each year, and when you head to the 76th Maleny Agricultural Show you won’t be disappointed, they will once again all be here, the spectacle of the Grand Parade, the Ute Show, the ring events, the rodeo, the wood chop, side show alley, Dagwood dogs and fairy floss.
However there is plenty of excitement surrounding the new headline act this year including Eljay and his team of motor cycle and push bike trials doing extreme jumps and daredevil acts.Anticipation is also
high for the ‘Crack Up Sisters’ who are heading back to Maleny with new performances to suit the whole family.Friday night, will see Brisbane band, Golden Child performing live around the Cattleman’s Bar, and on Saturday night you can catch Paul McKenna performing live with his well-known classic rock.Something exciting for all the kids, this year the Silly Billies are heading to the show, both days for some fantastic children’s entertainment and workshops. These guys are fast making a huge name for themselves in the children’s entertainment world, and it’s a huge thrill to have them here at Maleny.Hot on the heels of this year’s My Kitchen Rules phenomenon we are also introducing new this year, our novice cookery judges competition, where anyone can join in on Friday, up in the main pavilion, and try their hand at judging cakes and cookery under the expert guidance of our cookery judges.You never know, you might discover a hidden talent for picking a prize sponge cake.Also this year for those of you who like to dress up to come to the show, there will be prizes on offer for the fashions on the field.

Go Jocelyn goBeerburrum local Jocelyn Evans has recently been advised that she has been chosen as part of Team Australia to participate in the swimming team for the Special Olympics – Asia Pacific games to be held in Newcastle in December this year.Jocelyn’s very proud mum Deb explained that part of the criteria for being chosen to be part of the team is based on the individual swimmer’s commitment to their swimming and the level of ongoing training they are prepared to undertake before the games.While Jocelyn has not yet been advised which events she will swim in, her personal favourites are the 200m breaststroke and the 100m fly, she also likes the individual medley events.Jocelyn has a diverse training schedule which she enjoys, including swimming training, cycling, boxing, cardio, walk / jog up Wild Horse Mountain wearing weights on her back and then some pilates when she gets to the top.There will be many locals cheering Jocelyn with her training this year – who will be keen to see her representing ‘Team Australia’.

Beerwah becomes RV ready By Lea Parkes
While many of us hear about the tourism phenomenon of the Grey nomads we don’t generally see too many of them staying locally.But for Beerwah locals and regulars at the Beerwah RSL, this is all about to change. The RSL Sub-Branch are set to open their own Recreational Vehicle (RV) overnight site on what used to be their lawn bowls area at Beerwah.President of the Chamber of Commerce, Bob McLean’s association with Ken Kipping from the Campervan and Motorhome Club of Australia (CMCA) encouraged him to find a way to create an overnight stop for the ‘Leave No Trace’ certified RVs in our local community.Bob raised the proposal with the Beerwah Peachester RSL Sub-branch President at the time, John Rouhan, who then worked it through with the Sub-branch committee to make it happen.
Bob said over the past 18 months, with the support of Hanson Quarries and Community Recycling Inc, work has been undertaken to lay 100mm of road base over the synthetic green making it suitable for small RVs to use for overnight stops.RSL Sub-branch President Gavin Smith said they are now at the stage of installing signage and are looking forward to getting it all underway.Community Recycling Inc happily agreed to pay up to $2,500.00 towards the work required as they saw it as an initiative that would benefit the broader community.The RV stop is only for overnight stays and can’t be used during the day. The facility will be used by only small vehicles and those using the spot will pay a $10.00 donation to the RSL Sub-branch.Larger RVs that come into Beerwah can already stay at the Beerwah Sportsground which along with the caravan park at Gowinta Farms is equipped with a ‘dump point’ for dumping vehicle waste.
RSL Sub-branch member Taffy Watkins took a hand’s on role in the project – pictured during the resurfacing

Starting education youngOne young attendee at the ANZAC Day Dawn Service at Beerwah and the march at Glass House Mountains brought a smile to many faces.Conondale locals Jane Kindleysides and Anthony Beattie were proud for their son Jack to participate in his first ANZAC Day, dressed in his army camos and proudly displaying his great grandfathers' and grandfathers’ service medals.ANZAC Day is an important occasion for the couple, who met in Kokoda. That had both travelled there with their younger brothers to walk in the footsteps of our great Australian heroes.Jane said to prepare for the Kokoda Track she did all her training around the Glass House Mountains tracks. “I climbed Mount Beerwah and Ngungun over and over until I was fit enough to head over,” she said.“Kokoda was a life changing experience for our group of 18. Over there we laughed, we cried, we endured, we had such mateship and we conquered Kokoda together.“If it wasn't for the sacrifices of the diggers in Kokoda, Anthony and I wouldn't have met and Jack wouldn't be here today,” Jane said.
History has repeated itself, as Anthony's parents also met in PNG. Arthur and Judy moved from Australia in their younger years for work with Anthony, spending several years living over there when he was a child.Jane has worked at the RSL nursing home at Caboolture for 15 years, and on Anzac Day, she and her colleague Wendy would start at 3.00am to get the Diggers ready for the Dawn service.“I have been so privileged in my job over the years to be able to sit and chat to our Diggers, and hear their stories of their time spent in war,”
she said.“The stories of the POW's in particular were heartbreaking. It is sad all these years since, that the war still affects our service men and women so deeply.”“This was the first year I haven't
been in to work to get the Diggers up for the Dawn service, but I had a very special day with Jack who will be taught just how important it is for his generation to remember the courage and sacrifice of our past and present Anzacs,” Jane said.

Ranger Jake is in the parkBy Greg BrownJake Philpott of Mooloolah’s goal in life is to become a Park Ranger – that is his dream job and he has been working towards it for quite a few years; studying, gaining experience and now working as a supervisor in local land conservation projects with Mooloolah River Waterwatch and Landcare.So when he saw the Tourism Australia’s international competition to become a Park Ranger for six months, he knew that it could be his big break.If he could win the six month celebrity opportunity, it would no doubt be a great foot in the door to becoming a career park ranger.Jake’s passion for being a Park Ranger was clear when GCNews caught up with him last week at the Twinnies Pelican and Sea Bird Rescue Service.Since Jake was short listed for the ‘Best Job in the World – Park Ranger’ he has been busy creating a folio of people that would endorse him as being ‘perfect for the job’.After originally meeting the Twinnies and their team a couple of years ago at the first tree planting day at their Steve Irwin Way Landsborough bird rescue centre, he thought this might be a great place to start.The girls were so happy to support Jake and show the rest of our community why he would be perfect for the job, that they organised a Family Fun Day at their facility.Throughout the day, the girls showed visitors around their clinic and Jake was kept busy doing tours of the outside rehabilitation enclosures – showcasing his enthusiasm and his people-skills, all of which would make him a great choice for the Park Ranger job.Jan Kesby, the co-ordinator for Mooloolah River Waterwatch and Landcare reckons that Jake definitely has a passion for the environment, which shines through with everything he does.We also spoke to Jack’s mum Debbie and she is unquestionably Jake’s biggest fan. She believes the job should be definitely his. Maybe the competition judges would think she is a little biased, but having met Jake, we think the judges would be mad not to choose him as the best person for the job.
Outback Mia By Lea ParkesFormer Beerwah High student Mia Warren loves her job working in aged care at ‘Embracia in Glasshouse Country’ - but after hearing about the Best Job in the World Campaign she couldn’t resist the idea of entering the Outback Adventurer category.While Mia hasn’t yet had the opportunity to travel through the outback she is very keen to do so and is a huge advocate for people coming to visit and travel through Australia.Mia is really interested in Aboriginal Culture having lived in Murgon near the Cherbourg Aboriginal community when she was at primary school.Part of the application process for the job involved making a 30 second video outlining why you are the best person for the job.Mia explained that it only took three days to put the clip together but she spent plenty of time planning for how to clearly get her message across in such a short time.Living here certainly gave her some spectacular locations to choose from to show off her ‘local backyard’ including Gardeners Falls at Maleny and the Glass House Mountains.Now that she has been shortlisted, she now needs to be able to generate media interest and enlist celebrity support to endorse what she is doing.Last week she managed to get Radio Presenter Jamie Dunn (and former sunshine coaster) to get behind her cause – she was rapt when he invited her into the studio to be interviewed.Mia is keen to keep locals up-to-date on how she is going so she has set up a Facebook page and twitter to make it easier. So if you want to check out more, you can follow her on www.facebook.com/mia’soutbackadventures or twitter @outbackmia

Sue rewarded for hard work at Glenview SchoolThe P&C awarded an Honorary Life Membership to the P&C to Sue Schafer at the AGM last term. This was to thank her for her incredible support over the last eight years. She has never missed a P&C meeting and was an invaluable member of the committee, running the clothing store and always willing to lend a hand. Members of the community donated funds at the Christmas Carols last year and with this we commissioned a painting of a Crimson Rosella for Sue which has an engraved plaque which reads ‘Love Glenview Community’.

Queenslanders to shape the future of the stateBy Lea ParkesNext Friday, community members from around Queensland will come together for a summit in Mackay which will be the first step in this collaborative process to develop the ‘Queensland Plan’ which will help set the direction of this 30 year vision for the state.Member for Glasshouse, Andrew Powell said the Queensland Plan will be developed over the course of 2013 through a collaborative process involving community members, business and industry representatives, state and local government officers and Members of Parliament.Each of the state members of parliament has chosen three local residents to represent their individual electorates.From Glasshouse Country we have Ursula Starkovsky, a local business woman representing the Glass House Electorate and Trish Cashin, from Community Recycling Inc at Beerwah who will be representing the Caloundra Electorate.Both Ursula and Trish are active members across our community and both are keen to seize the opportunity and be a strong voice for our local area.“Mrs Starkovsky was selected as part of this process so she can represent the views and concerns of the Hinterland Business community. We live in a growing region and the importance of supporting local business is something Mrs Starkovsky is very passionate about,” said Mr Powell.Trish Cashin said she felt it was an honour to be asked to attend and believes that it is important that people like herself who represent ‘Joe Public’ can highlight what our community needs.Trish, who is passionate about our area, believes that our young people are the ones who miss out in our community. She said she’ll be making sure she is heard.
Rotary UpdateContributed by Ursula StarkovskyThe Glass House Mountains Rotary Club is a proud part of the World Wide service club that allows ordinary people to achieve the most extraordinary things.Around the world there are 1,210,047 Rotarians in 32,774 clubs and 34,000 Rotarians in 1,164 clubs in Australia.
Locally we do our bit to help, we organise charity events and we contribute to our community in every way we can. But, it is not all about work and commitment.We are also having fun.On Good Friday morning we served a hot breakfast at Australia Zoo and drew the winners of the Easter Raffle, 1st prize – Madison Long, 2nd prize David Horne and 3rd prize went to Jason Long. Some of our members attended the Trivia Night organised by the Rotary Club Caloundra Pacific and our own member Ian Hope presented a slide show of his visit to the Crazy Horse Monument in South Dakota (USA). Last Sunday we were welcomed to the Big Kart Track in Landsborough where Ferre De Deyne (Managing Director) gave us an insight into his business, allowed us to use his barbeque facility and invited us to try go kart racing.If you feel inspired to do your bit, please give us a call on 0402 428 418 or visit the website www.glasshouserotary.com.au for further information.

Business feature
After their first week behind the counter of Glasshouse Country Meats, new owners Murray and Michelle Samuel are really impressed with how friendly, kind and encouraging the locals have been.Their approach is about getting back to basics. With just the two of them working the business, they will be able to offer a traditional family-run butcher service.Michelle describes herself and Murray as ‘down to earth people’, which is why this particular shop, in this particular community, really appealed to them.And with Murray being a skilled butcher for over 30 years, you know that they have the experience and understanding of quality, value and service.In fact, locals may remember Murray from his time as a butcher at Maleny.What can you expect from Murray and Michelle? Great quality meats, some with a gourmet twist, flavours and products that both foodies and families can enjoy.
To compliment the full range of traditional butcher shop produce, they have sourced top quality meats and goods – including such products as bacon and hams that are free range, double smoked, gluten free, preservative and additive free, and very low in nitrates.Michelle’s experience in food and wine merchandising means that she really knows her condiments, spices, sauces and dressings.She has gathered a small but select range of products including Crabtree’s Murray-Darling Snowflake Salt; 41 Degrees South Tasmanian Ginseng Spice; Wild Sensation products from South Australia – a gluten free and GMO free chilli cherry jam and a caramelised onion jam; and wild sweet and spicy South Australian Quandong and chilli marinade, coriander and wild lime gourmet dressing, lemon myrtle and sweet chilli sauce, bush tomato and mustard sauce – all gluten free and GMO free.The shop is still located in the same convenient location – Bruce Parade, Glass House Mountains
and is open Monday to Friday 7.30am until 5.30pm, and Saturday 7.30am until 12.30pm.Call in and say hello to Murray and Michelle, and try out some of their tender meats and mouth-watering accompaniments.

Youth - Caring for their Community
Mooloolah Performing Our Arts OffContributed by Jean CroweOnce again Mooloolah well and truly performed its arts off with some pretty incredible performances from some pretty amazing local artists back in February. The night started with a kid’s drumming workshop held by Pete Foerster who also hosted the night. Special guest and drum teacher extraordinaire Herb joined in with his ‘Herbinator’. It was very noisy but the kids had a blast.The breathtaking operatic sounds of Louise Kennedy-Richardson and acoustic gymnastics of solo guitarist and singer Tayg Pomfret stunned us all into silence, while the rock chick vibe of Sonia and her Sonics had us all up dancing. So much local talent in one evening made it a night to remember.
Our next event The Mooloolah Hula is coming up really soon, Saturday, May 18. This will kick off with a Ukulele workshop from 5.30pm - 6.00pm for anyone who would like to join in (byo ukulele).Feature artists for the night are Uke Crazy People and The Bamboo Rockets. This will be a fun family friendly evening with a Mooloola Hula theme so come dressed in best Hawaiian get up to win a prize.

By Mike Turner, Beerwah High School ChaplainAll too often we hear negative stories about young people on the news and current affair shows, but in reality this involves a relative minority of our young people, leaving the vast majority who are not involved in these antisocial behaviours unacknowledged for their values and hard work.Here is one example of what I am talking about… On Saturday, March 23 four teams of young people from Beerwah State High School and Glasshouse Country Baptist Church took the time to invest into the life of somebody else in a very practical way.Early that morning they assembled for a safety briefing then headed out in their teams to four homes owned by some of our older locals who needed a hand with weeding and general gardening. Despite the hot and humid conditions, the students worked hard and left the four home-owners impressed and very grateful.This was a great opportunity for our youth to invest into our local community. Due to the success of the day, we are planning to run this a
few times each year and give other young people a chance to get involved. It was great working on this project with youth pastor Mick Spann and some of the youth from Glasshouse Country Baptist Church.One of the people who helped behind the scenes with this project was Ann McQuay, Manager of Glasshouse Country Care.Ann said she was really excited about what these young people have done with this community project.“I think it is great because it brings the generations together, plus, because government funded services can’t meet all the needs of our aged community members, this project is a way that young people can help.“I’m looking forward to seeing future projects like this involving our local young people,” said Ann. It truly was a blessing to see these young people in action and Mick and I would like to congratulate their parents for a job well done in raising them. These young people were a credit to their families and schools.

Glasshouse authors 60th Wedding AnniversaryLocal authors Kate and John Wright recently visited Sydney for the celebration of their Diamond Wedding Anniversary. Having met in 1952 and married in 1953, on the Isle of Wight, UK, they are responsible for two sons and, now, six grandchildren.This family group, with attendant spouses and in-laws, arranged an event that included a church thanksgiving service, a road-sign greetings card, two jade elephants representing longevity and fidelity, together with letters of congratulation from the Governor General and Queen Elizabeth. Included was a magnificent dinner followed by an enormous cake with a photograph of the (still) happy couple.One grandson, a civil engineer who resides in
Canada, joined the festivities by speaking on satellite video link from Ottawa.Now back home in Glasshouse, Kate and John have resumed their local activities as writers, tutors and readers.

Smileys Jewellers Business feature
For the past 10 years Tania and Glenn have owned Smileys Jewellers at Beerwah Marketplace.Regular customers will no doubt know Tania well – however Glenn has only just started working in-store in the last six months, which has meant they’ve been able to expand the services they offer.As Glenn has a second-hand dealer’s license they are now able to buy gold and silver directly from their customers and they pride themselves in paying top rate.Many people have gold and silver jewellery sitting around that they don’t wear for many reasons, sometimes a style has become dated, a ring may no longer fit, or the person who gave you the piece of jewellery no longer holds such a special place in your heart.So instead of just leaving jewellery in a box, you have a number of practical options available. You can sell them for the value of the materials, use
the gold to create a new piece, or you may just want to have something remodeled?For those of you who couldn’t consider parting with any of your jewellery, you can add to your collection by dropping into Smiley’s. They’re offering a 10 per cent discount off current stock when you mention this ad.One of the things that Tania has really enjoyed about having her own local business for nearly a decade has been getting to know their customers.“People start out as customers but over the years many locals are more like friends – we get to share in many special events of their lives and in return they care about us and have remained loyal in their support for our business,” Tania said.The shop is opened Monday – Friday from 9.00am – 5.00pm and Saturday 9.00am – 2.00pm, if you want to contact them you can phone them on 5439 0611 or fax 5439 0711.

Timber WaggonThe bullock powered timber waggon, once owned by William Smith Burgess of Bankfoot House, has been exposed to the weather and has sat unused in the grounds of the property for over 80 years. Keith Pennell, a volunteer at Bankfoot House, has been carrying out a time-consuming preservation project to ensure the waggon’s metal hardware and timber frame survive for generations to come. Keith is well advanced with this project.In addition, the waggon’s heavy timber wheels need major restoration to counter the effects of white ants and sun damage. Local Wheelwright, Steve Ralph, has been engaged to restore the wheels and Steve is keen to ensure appropriate timbers are used when replacing any wheel components. For example he has selected the timber Blue Gum to replace the felloes, i.e. those circular sections of the wheel adjoining the metal tyre.When the damaged wheels were removed, the forge marks on the axles revealed the year of axle manufacture and the name of the maker. This was a great discovery as the age of the waggon was largely unknown. The front axles were dated 1907 and 1908, whilst the rear axles appear to have been replaced in 1926. All axles were made in England.Once fully restored, the waggon will represent a fine example of a bullock-drawn working vehicle from the days before motor trucks and tractors.
Annual General MeetingThe AGM of Friends of Bankfoot House is scheduled for Sunday, June 16 at 2.30pm at the Glasshouse Mountains Sports Club.

Tech Time
No time for social mediaIt’s so common - every business owner knows that they need to be involved with Social Media, such as Twitter and Facebook, but simply can’t justify the time.
As part of my ongoing mission to educate business owners across the Sunshine Coast and beyond, I am regularly helping people figure out the best strategy for their business. You’ll be surprised how often we can implement a Social Media strategy which will cost you less than 15 minutes per week in time and effort!
A Social Media strategy should NOT have to be a drag... most certainly it should not consist of you sitting in front of your computer all day, racking your brain as to what you should say next.
You see, Facebook is not a blog (an online diary). Nor is Twitter. Coming up with affirmations, amusing anecdotes or images might entertain your audience for a while, but if you really want to have a successful online presence, you need to represent your true value. That is, you need to give to your online audience by being a knowledgeable authority in your field and educating us all about the things we’ve come to your page to learn about.
As a professional in your field, you are likely to be privy to industry-specific knowledge on a regular basis - knowledge that your potential followers would love to find out.
So don’t keep your knowledge and skills to yourself, share with us, educate us and you might just start getting many more followers, likers, questions, communications and most importantly, customers!

Security updateMalware: a term for malicious (or malevolent) software, Malware is used by attackers to disrupt computer operation, gather sensitive information, or gain access to private computer systems. Malware includes: (from Wiki) computer viruses, worms, Trojans, rootkits, keyloggers, spyware, adware, rogue security software and several other forms. In short, Malware is why computer security is so important! To avoid Malware attacks, ensure your Internet Security Program is up to date and functioning. Also keep Windows/Apple software up to date; many updates are intended to plug software holes that can be exploited by scammers. If you have basic protection, use a Malware protection program as well. Do not however run two Internet Security programs side by side; the programs will normally disrupt each other and may result in very poor performance. A particularly nasty Malware fraud is still causing problems at the moment. This is the AFP (Australian Federal Police) Scam. It has several forms and can be triggered in different ways but the result is pretty standard; your computer locks up and you are requested to pay a fine to unlock your computer. One variant will even take your picture with your webcam! This piece of Malware can prove difficult to remove – if you are not sure what you are doing, you are well advised to seek help from your local computer professional. As well as having your computer and security software up to date, there are steps you can take to help avoid falling foul of Malware. Steer clear of dubious websites and be very careful when downloading or accepting anything, especially from unfamiliar sources: file sharing is a playground for scammers!Final tip, use a strong password for your email accounts; email hacking is very popular at the moment. For password tips and links to Malware protection, see www.mooloolahpc.com.au.

Why be the First? Business feature
When faced with a situation which is not working effectively and when you have the strong conviction that your solution is the right one, that is when a courageous decision to be first can be both justified and successful.In the late 1990s, Nambour Christian College identified the challenge of providing an engaging and relevant school environment for 11-14 year olds; that adolescence is a distinct developmental phase with its own characteristics, elements and challenges, and hence requires a unique response.NCC’s response was the establishment of Middle School (Years 7, 8 and 9) – the first on the Sunshine Coast. Middle School is part of an integrated learning program that begins at NCC in Prep and flows through to Year 12. Being the bridge between Primary and Senior schooling, it aims to nurture, stimulate and challenge students.To ensure all students have the opportunity of reaching their full potential, the curriculum has
been designed with an innovative, integrated and practically oriented focus. This focus is reflected in the characteristics of NCC Middle School:• all students are actively involved in the
College Farm, growing vegetables, harvesting honey, handling miniature horses, tending the orchard and managing small agri-businesses
• broad rotation of Creative and Performing Arts such as music, visual art, creative movement, media and drama
• practical manual arts, food technology, PE and multi-media electives
• well-trained, Specialist Teachers who understand the specific needs of adolescents
• carefully staged Outdoor Education program The wisdom of the NCC Middle School approach has been validated by the adoption of similar models by the other private schools on the Coast. As of 2015, all government schools will integrate Year 7 into secondary school in an attempt to address the unique requirements of adolescents.
NCC now has 15 years of experience in successful Middle Schooling – a good reason to be first!

GCCC Open DayUnder 8’s set to celebrateContributed by Kylie MerolaLandsborough State School is preparing to celebrate Under 8's Week by hosting a morning packed full of activities for children under eight years of age.Following the huge success of last year's event, the school will once again open its doors to the whole community. The celebrations will take place on Friday, May 24 from 8.30am until 11.00am.All children, along with their parents, carers and families are invited to come and join in the celebrations.‘Some of the fun activities on offer include a farm animal petting zoo, a jumping castle, use of class Apple devices such as iPads and iPods, plus lots more.Representatives from Beerwah Library will also be at the school participating in the event and conducting fun activities with the children.Every child who attends will receive a free show bag and balloon. This year, the theme for Under 8's Week is ‘Celebrating Community - sharing music, movement and culture. Think locally!’ This free event is a great way to celebrate together the diversity of young children in our community. For further information and to RSVP for the event, contact Landsborough State School on 5436 2777.
Here come the drumsSalaka means sharing in the Ga language of Ghana so when a trio of African drummers by the same name visited Glasshouse Country Christian College, the students were in for a treat.GCCC students were entranced as the lively Salaka trio danced, drummed and shared stories about their culture and country.
The lead performer explained how his village in Ghana didn’t have the modern conveniences Australians take for granted, so drums were a big part of their culture. Drums are used for communications, celebrations and keeping fit. “In Ghana, we don’t need gyms; if you want good abs you play this drum and if you want guns like mine you play that drum,” he said as he pointed to the different drums.The drummer went on to explain how his village didn’t have running water or electricity but it was the mention of no Play Stations that had the students gasping in astonishment.After the story telling and performances, students were given drums and learned how to beat them in rhythm. When 200 students are each given a drum, there is no telling what could happen, but the resulting noise was surprisingly enjoyable.
Big smiles at Mooloolah State SchoolThere was plenty of reason for Ken Truscott of Mooloolah to smile recently. School Captains Zac O’Brien and Georgia Gillespie presented Ken with a cheque for $500.00 for winning the Mooloolah State School Cowpat Lotto!Ken said it was all really easy! He walked into his local Mooloolah Butchers to get some great meat for dinner, was happy to spend $5.00 to support his local school, selected his special number, and then took the phone call to let him know he’d been the lucky winner! The Cowpat Lotto was conducted by the Mooloolah P&C and was made possible by the generous support of local businesses. The Mooloolah P&C would again like to thank Mooloolah Meats, Mooloolah Shearing Shed, Mooloolah Computers, Mooloolah Pharmacy, Mooloolah Tiling, Mooloolah Post Office, Our Shoes, Mooloolah Hair Studio, Mooloolah BP, Mooloolah Produce, Glenview BP, Mooloolah IGA, Mooloolah Veterinary Surgery, Mooloolah News, Mooloolah Dental Surgery, Red Building, Activant Earthworx, Vicious Vintage, Coastwide Computers, Linea Design & Drafting, Matilda Fruit Barn, Earth Bling Jewellery, North Qld Cowboys Rugby League Club and Beerwah Hotel.

What an eyesoreOne would think that the Coochin Creek Co-Op people or the Railways Department would get together and clean up the eye-sore of litter thrown from the railway onto the defunct rail spur along-side.Or have a screen erected to stop the problem and the litter picked up until clear.Also Coochin Creek Co-Op could mow and tidy the grass regularly. The police should regularly patrol the overpass bridge for young people sitting and congregating and deliberately throwing drinks and food on the steps, hoping someone will slip and break a leg.The station mistress often cleans the steps, but she shouldn’t have to. Let’s have some civic pride.

Well it's startedWith five months to go, and already Steve Irwin Way shows the evidence of what we have to look forward to, a lot more visual pollution. Mal's beaming face announcing that he is here for the hinterland is really a bit much this far out from the election, which will decide whether he is or not.Anyway, I thought there were legal requirements as to what and where election advertising can be placed. Is there no protection for the local community against these signs being put up willy-nilly months before the actual date? No wonder people get turned off by elections.
Pam LeverGlass House Mountains
Editor’s noteWe have put the question to Mal Brough about his signage and he explained that what he has in place are billboards with a general message and not specifically election signage. He has assured us that all his signage meets council’s regulations. GCNews will be contacting Council to confirm this and find out what the most current local laws are for election signage and will be reporting on it in the May 15 edition.
Thanks I would like to thank the ambulance and fire brigade officers who helped my dad after he had marched on ANZAC day. They were very professional and made my dad feel very special. Thankyou

A way forwardIn answer to the comments on bike ways, or the lack of them, in the last edition of GCNews how about this? All bikes should be registered, with a fee payable each year, the same as us motorists. Then the money will be available to build the bike ways.There will be no need for road closures so that bikes can race. No three abreast riders, no fear of getting hit by a motorist, life will be fair to all. It's just a thought, but I bet all cyclists will find fault.

Saving on phone call chargesI read James Aitken's recent letter regarding saving cash on calls and whilst a great saving, for those with a busy household, the savings can be limited given the higher call rate.Stand by... technical talk ahead...Our solution was to set up VOIP (Voice Over IP). This uses your ADSL/Internet connection to make phone calls.The setup for us includes cordless phones, a traditional line, ADSL and of course the VOIP. What this means is that we retain a standard eight digit phone number for inbound but all outbound calls are via VOIP.One reason we didn't go with a Naked ADSL plan and use mobiles, is that the inbound cost of calls is high for anyone wanting to talk to us (mobile rates), with our solution friends and family calling in get the standard phone rates, great for them too!In terms of savings with VOIP, we were paying
Telstra in excess of $100.00 a month with national calls etc. Now with just 18c flat rate for any standard call nationally we have cut over $40.00 a month on our phone bill.To get configured for all of this isn't as complicated as it seems either, so long as you've got an internet connection and are willing to do some reading up on plans etc. Indeed you can cut over whilst maintaining your current normal phone contract (which we have retained, so still have phones in a power cut).Personally, we went with Internode. Their Nodephone (VOIP), Nodeline (Alternate ‘copper’ to Telstra) and Easy Reach plans all bundle together to give a further $10.00 a month discount.It's almost too good to be true when you do the maths, but still a wonderful way to use new technology.
Andrew CollettMooloolah Valley
What does it say of our society?We can torture and disembowel animals whilst fully conscious en mass in slaughterhouses and this is legal and totally acceptable but we are outraged when this happens outside of these walls? No animal ever deserves to be tortured or killed, regardless of whether this is for food, clothes or ‘fun’. The recent slayings of cattle and alpacas in our region are just a snapshot of what goes on behind abattoir walls. Until we recognise that animals are sentient beings who feel the same pain, fear and terror we do, we will continue to turn a blind eye to the holocaust that is animal cruelty.

Dedicated Wildlife CarersRecently I was privileged to meet two very special people who dedicate their time to caring for injured wildlife. Cathy and Nigel Cope work for Wildcare Australia and approached me for a suitable site for a ‘soft release’ of a young possum which had been in their care for eight months. The tiny possum came to them following a road kill, and in care had to be fed every two hours.Cathy and Nigel often care for more than one animal at any one time. These little creatures are given names and have to be taught to fend for themselves in the wild. Isaac came to our place in his own nest box in a large cage and was left near a suitable tree to get accustomed to a new area. Another nest box was placed in a nearby tree with a rope suitably attached to his cage tree.A week later an open cage door left Isaac free to leave captivity and happily he felt no need to return.

Mobile office in BeerwahI have always been committed to making myself available to the people of Glass House via my regular mobile offices. I have already had offices in Caboolture, Woodford, Wamuran and Palmwoods this year and Beerwah is next on the list. I encourage anyone who has a state related enquiry to come along and have a chat with me. I will be at the park area at the corner of Old Gympie Road and Fig Tree Drive, Thursday, May 9 from 7.30am to 9.00am.
ANZAC DayANZAC Day, held on April 25 each year, is a time to pay our respects to all those who have served in military operations throughout our nation’s history and acknowledge those who currently serve in the military today. Anzac Day is observed across Queensland with commemorative dawn services, and parades of ex-servicemen and women and uniformed Australian Defence Force members. With a very wide spread electorate to cover, a lot of planning goes into my Anzac Day schedule so that I can visit and participate in as many Glass House services as possible. This year I am pleased to say I joined services in Palmwoods, Wamuran, Witta and Glass House Mountains. As each ANZAC Day passes, I am reminded how lucky we are to call Australia home, particularly those of us lucky enough to live in Queensland.
Make the most of the momentI was pleased to see a new Sunshine Coast tourism marketing campaign launched recently that entices travellers to ‘Make the Most of the Moment’ on the Sunshine Coast. The aim of the campaign is to encourage more Australians to take some time out and visit the Sunshine Coast. This will be both an online and TV campaign that will promote our enviable winter weather. For more information about this campaign visit – www.visitsunshinecoast.com.au/moments.

Local businesses urged to get involvedTough Mudder Australasia has put the call out to local goods and services providers to get involved in the Sunshine Coast event on August 17 and 18. Tough Mudder executives recently visited the region meeting with key stakeholders and speaking to local tourism businesses and other suppliers.The expression of interest is the perfect chance for local businesses to capitalise on the upcoming tourism event.Suppliers sought by Tough Mudder include the following list: water, mobile offices, marquees, fencing and security, skip bins, portable toilets, generators, portable ATMs, sound equipment, ice, lights, plastic cups and food and drink vendors.The event is generating a huge buzz around the Sunshine Coast with the economic and tourism benefits set to be a huge windfall for the entire region.Tough Mudder is contracted to be held in Caloundra for the next five years with the possibility of two events per year from 2014 onwards. This will inject millions in to the Sunshine Coast economy.While the actual venue was only recently announced, I’m told several places in Caloundra have received accommodation enquiries and have taking bookings. More than 13,600 people have already signed up with organisers expecting 18,000 competitors from across Australia on Saturday, August 17 and 4,500 on Sunday, August 18 with spectator attendees expected to be over and above participant numbers. This means a much-needed boost for accommodation providers, cafes, shops, attractions and small businesses throughout the Coast.Anyone interested in supplying goods and services should contact the Sunshine Coast Council’s Business Partnering Program team of Kellie Holdsworth or Geoff Peters on 5475 8747 to leave their contact details and what they can supply for forwarding onto the Tough Mudder crew.

Recently I celebrated a personal milestone as a high school chaplain – having been in the job for 10 years! As the date approached, my excitement grew because it meant so much to me. Not only did it bring a real sense of personal satisfaction that I had stuck at something for a decade, but it made me think about all the things I had gone through in that time – people I had met, kids I had worked with, events I had run and experiences that I’d had. I also reflected on the personal side of the job – how I have grown and matured as a person over that time and hurdles that I have overcome.I have found that reflecting back on my life every now and then is very beneficial to me. Let me explain… I guess the first thing that comes to mind is that in life we get so busy with work and family life, household jobs, paying the bills, social obligations, sports and clubs etc that time can absolutely fly by. I have had months where I get to the end of it and I go Oh, my! Where did April go? To stop and reflect is somewhat of a handbrake. It enables us to consider what we have done, where we are at and it can help us make sense of things and process what has been going on – good, bad and otherwise.The second benefit of reflecting back is that so often we only remember the mistakes we have
made or the negative things that have happened. We forget all the great success stories and stuff we have achieved. We can then encourage ourselves with these stories. It can be a great confidence booster.There are a number of occasions in the bible where at significant moments God told the people to build a special pile of stones. He told them to do this to help future generations be reminded of how he had helped them e.g. Israelites crossing the Jordan River and coming into the Promised Land (Joshua Chapter 4). This is the best part about reflecting on milestones and stuff in our lives… If we are open to it, I believe we can see how God has been with us through the ups and downs of life. When I look back on the last 10 years – that is the most fulfilling part indeed. Realising that God has been with me the whole time, providing for me and my family and helping me in the tough times.God bless you and your family.

obligations, with just one payment date and amount.In addition, you may be able to save on interest when you consolidate high-interest debt like credit cards.
Do you feel like you’ve been locked into a home loan that has turned into an unwelcome house guest?Whether it’s your first home loan or your seventh, it can be handy to keep in mind that refinancing may provide a solution to your troubles.Pay your loan off fasterIf you want to be mortgage-free quicker, why not increase your repayments?There is no gain without a little bit of budgetary pain, but the sacrifices you make in the short term will get you liberated from your home loan even sooner.
Another option is to increase the frequency of your repayments. If you were to pay half your monthly repayment every two weeks instead, you’d end up making the equivalent of an extra monthly repayment each year.That will shorten the length of your loan term and save you on interest charged too.Find a better dealMaybe you are in the hunt for a more competitive loan. Whether for you that means a lower interest rate or a different set of features, it may be worth considering your options.
With home loan refinancing you may be able to find a mortgage structure that is a better fit for you - either with the same lender or with another one.A mortgage adviser can help you to assess other options and go through the sums so that you know what the pros and cons for each scenario.Consolidate debtsIf you’ve got other debts as well as your mortgage, consolidating them all into one easy payment could have several benefits.It will make it much easier to keep on top of your debt repayment

Strong yields attracting investors: REIQMore than 150 postcodes across Queensland have recorded gross rental yields of 5 per cent or more, according to the latest Real Estate Institute of Queensland (REIQ) data.The REIQ December quarter gross rental yield report, released recently, found that yields were particularly firm in mining regions as well as areas which offered affordable housing.“Our property market has turned a corner over the past six months, and these robust yields reflect that sales prices had yet to fully rebound in the December quarter last year but rents had definitely increased,” Mr Anton Kardash CEO of the REIQ said.“This year, there continues to be strong demand for rental properties from tenants, which in turn is driving activity from investors. “REIQ analysis of Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) housing finance data found that the number of investors in the Queensland property market in February had increased more than 10 per cent compared to January this year.”The REIQ gross rental yields use weighted median rents and sale prices to derive yields, which is the annual income earned from a tenanted property divided by the purchase price.They are referred to as gross yields as they do not take into account costs associated with the original purchase or the ongoing costs of owning an investment property such as mortgage repayments.“Our gross rental yields are also classed as short-term yields as they reflect current pricings,” Mr Kardash said.“However, if you hold your investment property over the long-term - which of course is always advisable - then the yield improves given rental income has increased but your original purchase price had stayed the same.”The figures locally are Glasshouse Mountains 5.1 per cent; Beerwah 5.0 per cent; Landsborough 4.2 per cent; Glenview 3.9 per cent.

with Jade KingGet up Grow &
Jade is a local wife and mum, soil scientist and teacher who is passionate about vegetable gardening
Jade likes her family to be able to live as self sufficiently as possible from her garden and she loves to share her knowledge with others.
Patch progressBit by bit, little by little, it is all coming together.It has been a mammoth task trying to get back into a bit of self-sufficiency and we are still a very long way off from our final vision.Firstly, we have the vegie patch up and running and the first flush of produce is being harvested … by both us and the caterpillars.It never ceases to amaze me, how the white cabbage butterfly can suddenly appear as soon as you plant any of the brassica plants. It then baffles me once again at how quickly the caterpillars can decimate everything in sight. So, whilst we have made a start, it has been with the usual trials that I thought, just maybe, I could bypass this once.Another part to our journey to self-sufficiency is the chook house. After the children were given 16 chickens at Christmas, and travelling seven hours in a car with them to get them home, the chook house became high priority.With ample space and a load of materials left over from construction sites, we went all out to build a snake, vermin, bird and fox-proof pen. The result was well worth the effort, even if it didn’t feel that way during construction when our hands and backs were aching.Finally, we are nearing the completion of our cattle yards, which has given me a very real appreciation for our forefathers who built these without chainsaws and generators.We at least had the chainsaw, but no generator to power a drill … so there has been some great workout opportunities drilling the holes during this construction. We now eagerly await the chance to buy some cattle.Initially when I began to write this column I had thought that we had not achieved a great deal in the seven months since settling into our new place, but upon reflection, I am enormously proud!My husband and I have both been working full-time, but using our weekends and any other spare moment to get these things done. I’d best not forget also, that our children have pitched in whenever they are not off building their own contraptions! To be honest, the hardest bit of it all for us, is to tame our million and one ideas, and take it bit by bit, little by little …Until next month in Get up and Grow!

The club now has a Senior Representative Team and I would love to hear from anyone who is interested in playing in the representative side, as this team will only grow.Be one of the first to prove your skills by contacting either myself, (Desley Palmer 0458 228 550) or Semi Minchin (The Club President) 0409 638 086.Competitions are run on weekends (Saturday or Sunday) and we travel between Maryborough and the Gold Coast usually for tournaments.We will play in approximately three or four tournaments throughout the year.So let’s get our Glass House Mountains Touch Club on the board and noticed by turning up and having some fun for a day playing against some of the best touch players in our region. This is a great way of gauging your own competitiveness and fitness and we have some very experienced players with many skills at Glass House Mountains Touch. We would like to showcase this by entering the team into these competitions.If you think you are above the age limit for our young representative side, how about approaching me or Semi about getting together a Masters Team to play down the Gold Coast later in the year?You can also log in to the Sporting Pulse Website to view all that is happening with Touch Footy throughout the year, as there is a lot of fun to be had in these planned carnivals.

Mens - Final on April 28. The boys played the final match at Pacific Harbour against the team from Woodford and came away with a great win. This win is the culmination of many games played over many weeks against all the clubs in the zone, so we send our heartiest congratulations to the team on being Glasshouse Mountains Zone Masters Pennant Champions for 2013.Ladies - We are truly back in the swing of things with some beautiful weather to draw out the players. We had 60 girls compete in a 2 Ball Aggregate Stableford for trophies kindly donated by Lyn Nichols and Fay Raven. The winners on the day were great mates Heather Henn and Brenda Briese who came in with a grand total of 66 points. Runners up were Deb Rutherford and Jen Kelly who scored 64 points. The 2nd hole proved to be elusive with no one hitting the green with their tee shot. Other NTPs were Karen Kemp on 5, Noelene Annakin on 16, and Jen Kelly took out the 18th. The ball rundown went to 56 points. Let’s hope this lovely weather keeps up, it’s a great time to be golfing.
Week ending, May 4 Monday, April 29 - Two Bowl Triples. Winners were Rob Scullion, Jack Timm and Brian Fogarty. Runners up were the team from Palmwoods skipped by Rick Parish.

With tears we saw you su�er, we watched you fade awayOur hearts were slowly breaking, as you fought so hard to stay
In loving memory of Patricia Elaine Cinel3/10/41 - 26/4/13
You did not want to leave us, but you did not go aloneFor part of us went with you, the day god called you home
Miss you alwaysJoe, Janine, Vince, Chrissy, Michelle &
grandchildren
May Smith – May 7, 2002Forever in our hearts.
Dearly Loved. Always remembered.Your Family
We lost a Mother with a heart of gold, how much we miss her can never be told, She shared our troubles and helped us along, if we follow her
footsteps we will never go wrong.What she su�ered she told but few, She did not deserve what she went through, Tired and weary
she made no fuss, But tried so hard to stay with us.She was a Mother so very rare, Content in her home and always there, On earth she toiled, in
heaven she rests, God bless you Mother you were one of the best.
Always in our hearts...
In loving Memory of our wonderful Mother, Grandmother and
Great GrandmotherBarbara Joan

Disliking the catDisliking his wife’s cat, a husband decided to get rid of it. He drove the cat a kilometre from home, and dumped it. But when he got home, there was the cat. Next day he drove the cat two kilometres away, but the cat beat him home. The man drove the cat further away each day, but the cat always beat him home. Then he took the cat on a long
drive, turning left then right, and then U turns, hours later the man rang his wife and asked, “Jen is the cat home.” “Yes,” the wife replied. “Put him on the phone, I’m completely lost and I need directions home.”Irene Wedel, Elimbah
TAURUS April 21 – May 21This New Moon eclipse in your sign promises you a month of strong personal influence. A perfect time to give thought as to how to come across to others and your self presentation. Your mood, attitude and actions will have a strong impact on people. Best not to push conflicts now.GEMINI May 22 – June 21You achieve the greatest success over this next fortnight, under the auspices of the New Moon in Taurus, by patching up misunderstandings from the past. A time that you should avoid emphasising the bad things of life and not getting enough sleep and rest. Recharge batteries!CANCER June 22 – July 22This week the new Moon eclipse in Taurus indicates changes where your hopes are concerned. Expect realignment in connection with your friends and social life. Your current agenda has a shake up, no matter how much you want to hold onto it, making solid changes necessary.LEO July 23 – August 22The New Moon eclipse amplifies your ambitions, but a career conflict could have you looking for a new job. Being stubborn to officials or the authorities brings about a change of agenda. Don’t bully others or the boss at this time. Instead, try to encourage and stimulate others.
VIRGO August 23 – September 22This New Moon eclipse this week is favourable in its angle to your Sun sign. Therefore it could bring practical ideas to mind, along with opportunities to travel and to learn. Avoid disclosing your personal views too early. Venus helps you to gain recognition and alliances now.LIBRA September 23 – October 22This New Moon eclipse in Taurus may undermine a fiscal or intimate union. Don’t hang onto someone because of habit. Another charming flirtatious influence in the stars brings in a wave of new people and exotic adventures. This is the time to announce your own financial goals.SCORPIO October 23 – November 22The New Moon in Taurus puts the emphasis in your sector of your mate and relationships to others. Saturn in opposition reveals the unyielding nature of those who wish to control you. Even under extreme pressure don’t give in to forced changes. Time now for fresh starts.SAGITTARIUS November 23 – December 22The New Moon in Taurus indicates you will achieve success by improving your physical condition. You may wish to associate with idealistic people and be rid of those ‘hangers-on’ who have worn out their welcome. Eclipses shake up the old regime, giving great cheap travel trips.
CAPRICORN December 23 – January 19The soft sensual Taurus New Moon solar eclipse brings delight to creative activities, love affairs and interactions with young people. This week comes the challenge to your usual disciplined routines when three planets enter Gemini and scatter your work and service habits.AQUARIUS January 20 – February 19This New Moon has an eclipse impact. It may shake up family and emotional foundations that you thought were settled. With Venus and other planets moving into Gemini later on, there is a tickling sense of anticipation about romance and joys with children. A lucky lottery time.PISCES February 20 – March 20 The New Moon Taurus eclipse this week indicates an important period of six months with new friends and social life. Get your message out there! The emphasis in the next few weeks is in your writing, meetings and conferences. Expect a warm, loving, lively buzz to your family life.ARIES March 21 – April 20This is the best week for making the necessary purchases, or deals that will enhance your career. Again, with some surprise, you find that you are in another eclipse, but this is the New Moon eclipse a fortnight after the last. This forces an economic reassessment of your values.
