Police Remembrance Day honours the fallen

OFFICERS from Orana Mid-Western Police District and the extended NSW Police “family” gathered last week at a special service in Dubbo to honour the service of fallen police at the annual NSW Police Remembrance Day.

Acting Superintendent Gerard Lawson was joined by officers and distinguished guests at the ceremony at Holy Trinity Anglican Church, part of the state-wide commemorations of the service and sacrifice of 275 members of the force who have lost their lives in the line of duty and through injury or illness since the for-

mation of the NSW Police Force in 1862.

The ceremony is one of the most important events on the police calendar, with Commissioner Karen Webb APM telling the Sydney gathering it is a day “for police, their families, friends and the community to pause to honour officers whose lives have been cut short while performing their duty”.

Commissioner Webb said the day was also a time to remember those who have lost their lives through illness, injury or other circumstances, and to “stand with those they have left behind”.

Thank you for your service: Detective Inspector Tom Aylett, A/Inspector Jodi Stewart, Detective Inspector Rob Waugh, Detective A/Superintendent Jason Darcy and Sergeant Trudi Field.

TRIBUTE GARDEN A PLACE TO REFLECT

By KEN SMITH

LAST month saw the completion of a beautiful tribute garden in honour of the contribution of long-term Westhaven staff member Sue Gillet, who worked with clients at Susan Place for many years and be-

came a mum figure to many of the clients.

To honour her memory, the clients and Tammy Reeves (Team Leader Group Homes Westhaven Ltd) approached Bunnings Dubbo to see if they would be able to donate items to help with the dream of having a

reflection garden.

After meeting with Tammy and the Westhaven clients, the team from Bunnings Dubbo saw how much the project meant and decided to donate everything that was needed, even coming to assist with making the dream of a garden a reality.

Local death prompts police pleas

LOCAL police are joining their colleagues across the state in pleading with motorists to take care on the roads with the deaths of eight people on NSW roads over the long weekend, including here in our region.

On Sunday, emergency services were called to a two-vehicle crash on the Mitchell Highway at Geurie at about 4.15pm.

The driver of one of the vehicles – a 69-year-old woman – died at the scene, while her 69-year-old male passenger was airlifted to Liverpool Hospital with serious injuries.

The 71-year-old female driver of the second vehicle was also flown to the same hospital with serious injuries.

Officers from Orana Mid-Western Police District will assist with the investigations led by officers from the Crash Investigation Unit.

With the road toll continuing to climb, police are pleading for road users to take more care, saying that despite the growing toll, they continue to stop and book drivers for speeding, using their mobile phone, not wearing a seatbelt or for drink or drug driving.

Commander of Traffic and Highway Patrol Command, Acting Assistant Commissioner Trent King, took aim at “those who seem happy to put road-users’ lives at risk”.

“Every day we are forced to hand out fines, suspend licences and seize the vehicles (but) we much prefer taking these actions than we do knocking on the front door of a home late at night to inform a family that they have lost a loved one,” he said.

Correction: Macquarie Homestay charity cricket match

ON Page 10 of last week’s edition, the story about a cricket match to raise funds for Macquarie Homestay inadvertently carried the wrong date (“Get behind this wicket cause” –Dubbo Photo News – September 29-October 5, 2022).

The cricket match between the School of Rural Health and Dubbo Base Hospital will take place on Saturday, October 8, at Lady Cutler ovals from 12 noon.

There will be market stalls selling baked goods and a sausage sizzle, with all proceeds from sales going to support Macquarie Homestay, which provides affordable accommodation for patients needing treatment at the Dubbo Base Hospital.

Dubbo Photo News apologises for any inconvenience or confusion.

Grant helps grow innovative leaders

LOCAL not-for-profit organisation LeaderLife has gone above and beyond in supporting some of our community’s most vulnerable young people, particularly during the pandemic, and now that remarkable effort has been recognised with a substantial grant.

Under the state government’s COVID Regional Community Support program, LeaderLife will receive an injection of $50,000 in funding for the installation of a syntropic (or regenerative) farming system.

In announcing the grant, Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders, who is also the state’s minister for agriculture, said he hopes the funds will enable LeaderLife to “further grow skills development in local youth, as well as to become even more resilient as an organisation”.

LeaderLife’s Soil2Soul social enterprise project operates a working lime farm at Narromine, where the operation helps develop work readiness skills in agriculture and business for young, mostly Indigenous people who have disengaged from education.

The participants not only produce the fruit, but sell the limes and lime cordial at the Dubbo Farmers Markets, thereby learning important social, business and relationship management skills.

The results of the project speak for themselves, with a significant drop in police contact with LeaderLife’s young participants.

ANCIENT TREE MARKS THE FUTURE OF MEDICINE

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

CLIPPINGS from a Tree of Hippocrates at Dubbo School of Rural Health were planted at the Dubbo Base Hospital last month to celebrate the redevelopment and hard work of the hospital.

Agricultural scientist Dan Trimboli nurtured the clipping of tree in his backyard for five years, before he planted it at the hospital.

Western NSW Sydney University alumni Geoff Wise shared the history of the importance of the tree.

The Tree of Hippocrates is the

plane tree under which Hippocrates of Kos taught medicine to his students.

“The tree has a high level of significance, and we have two in Dubbo,” Mr Wise told Dubbo Photo News

He shared that historically, every physician has had to commit to the Hippocratic Oath of ethics to make sure they are always performing their best.

“I respect that every health worker here, whether they verbalise it or not, they have given an oath to give the best health service they possibly can,” Mr Wise said.

Dementia Action Week at Kintyre

Kintyre Lodge staff and residents were very proactive during Dementia Action Week which encouraged residents and their family members to partici pate in a number of activities.

Kintyre Lodge features a dedi cated memory unit for residents who live with a diagnosis of dementia, and it’s important to us to ensure that everyone in the Lodge and the wider community of Kintyre Village is aware of what dementia is, how to iden tify it, how to support someone living with a diagnosis.

Our current quest is to have Kintyre Village and Lodge acknowledged as a Dementia Friendly Community.

Drumming in the sunshine was possibly the most popular of the week’s events, seeing about 40 residents join Buninyong School As Community Centre coordinator Lorna Brennan and LiveBetter project officer, Jena Glover to experience the joy of

drumming.

“It’s important for our whole community to recognise activities people living with a dementia diagnosis can do, rather than focus on what they can’t. There were all abilities attending the drumming, and everyone – even those who were a bit reluctant – thoroughly loved it,” Kintyre Living Customer Liaison Manag er Danielle Chapman said.

Guest speakers were also invited to address residents and family about various activities happening in the community. Sing Out Choir founder and dementia counsellor Anne Gem mell, spoke about the incredible results the choir is achieving.

Regularly attracting over 50 people to each Tuesday weekly session Anne described how it is an inclusive choir and focuses on a skillset which many people diagnosed with dementia never lose – the ability to enjoy a good singalong with friends.

Local woman and Dementia Advocate for Dementia Australia, spoke about the importance of people living with a diagnosis of dementia, carers or former carers, becoming a Dementia Advocate to ensure regional experiences are heard and understood by policy makers, researchers, educators and the wider public.

Lastly, Dubbo’s new NSW Health Dementia Navigator, put the call out for residents and families to become Dementia Friendly. Megan Harrison conducted a brief induction session. Megan’s long-term goal is to gather like minded people from the region to form a Dementia Alliance and is working with council toward making Dubbo a Dementia Friendly City. Kintyre Lodge regularly collabo rates with the wider community to ensure residents are well informed about opportunities to make and maintain connections.

Nedd’s record run to raise a million

By LYDIA PEDRANA

HE’S the young tradie from Forbes who wants to change the world.

His name is Nedd Brockmann, he’s 23 years old, and right now he is running from Perth to Sydney to raise one million dollars for homeless support charity We Are Mobilise.

The cheeky sparky, who sports an enviable blonde mullet and mo, set off from at Cottesloe Beach in Western Australia on September 1 and is attempting to run an average of 100 kilometres per day, all the way to Bondi Beach.

Officially named Nedd’s Record Run, Mr Brockmann is expected to complete the challenge in 40 days and if he does, he will break

the world record for the fastest crossing of Australia.

In a video posted on his website, Mr Brockmann explains he would often buy coffees and sausage rolls, hand out cash and give his clothes to homeless people on the street.

“Coming from country NSW, I was really disheartened when I came to Sydney and saw the number of homeless people on the street,” Mr Brockmann says.

“I would help out and do what I could and give them $10 or food or my hoodie, but you can only do so much with that amount of money, so I thought I could make a bit of a movement and change a whole lot of people’s lives.”

Starting to run through Covid,

Mr Brockmann first completed a half marathon, then full marathon, before searching for what “crazy thing” he could do next.

After hearing someone had done 50 marathons in 50 days, he too successfully attempted.

It was on day five of his 50-day feat that he decided that next he would try to break the world record for running across Australia, which currently stands at 45 days.

Documenting his journey on social media, Mr Brockmann updates his growing fanbase daily on his progress.

Living by the mantra ‘just keep fighting’, Mr Brockmann’s phrase is “lessgo” (sic) as he pumps himself up.

Global sports brand Puma is sponsoring the run, other major companies including Budgy Smuggler, BCF and Toll Australia have also shown their support.

Further to this, Mr Brockmann has attracted the attention of celebrities and sport stars including comedian Hamish Blake, American ultramarathon runner David Goggins, Bondi Lifeguards Andrew ‘Reidy’ Reid and Ryan ‘Whippet’ Clark, who are all cheering him on via Instagram.

At the time of writing, Mr Brockmann has raised $354,792.95.

A penny for your thoughts on $60K find

THE eye-popping price paid recently for a rare Aussie penny will have Dubbo folk dragging out those bickie tins of old coins...just in case.

The extremely rare and highly collectable authentic 1930s Australian penny sold for $60K, smashing the previous record of $30K, according to selling house Lloyds Auctions.

The penny is the lowest mintage pre-decimal Australian coin in existence, in good condition featuring partial diamond and six pearls on King George V’s crown.

“This penny has not only broken a record at Lloyds Auctions, but we believe it has broken an Australian auction record based on its grade, selling for $60k,” said a spokesperson for the famed auction house.

The penny was a product of the Great Depression where there was such deflation in 1929 due to Australia’s economy shrinking significantly causing a lower demand for currency, with no pennies being minted by the government at that time.

However, due to the “accidental” minting of the 1930 penny, there were 3000 produced, but only around 1500 ended up in circulation. Many of those coins have been damaged and discarded over the years, and it’s not known how many are in collectors’ hands today.

Check those coin collections - this humble 1930 penny sold for an eye-popping $60K recently.

Local artists to be brought to light

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

WITH the Holland Open Garden a few weeks away, Lorraine Holland is getting her garden ready for opening night on Saturday, October 15.

The open garden will consist of a cocktail evening, and a garden event the following day to raise money for Dementia Australia.

Attendees will get the opportunity to see a range of art submitted for the Memory Makers Prize, with a chance to vote for the People’s Choice.

“There have been so many stunning entries so far that my daughter Laura and I are thinking about purchasing some art ourselves,” Mrs Holland told Dubbo Photo News Mrs Holland confirmed the pieces will be available for sale on the night with 20 per cent of the proceeds going towards Dementia Australia.

“Artists do it for the love of it, but selling work makes a big difference,” she said.

She continued saying the art is designed to be created from memory of a feeling or an experience.

“The theme is very broad,” she said.

She said artists are asked to contribute a statement of what their art piece represents.

“Last year it was very moving, many artists had a connection to having lost someone dear to them,” Mrs Holland said.

She said a lot of artists knew of someone living with dementia.

Based in Dubbo, the Memory Makers Art Prize has received state acknowledgement with entries across regional NSW.

Mrs Holland wants to see Dubbo on the cultural map for artwork.

“We want Dubbo to have a significant art prize, we have amazing artists in our region, and as a community they are supported very well,” Mrs Holland said.

Mrs Holland has been receiving questions regarding the categories and the hopes for expansion, including photography and sculpture.

“There is certainly scope for that and we will be looking into it in the future,” she said.

There is $3000 allocated for the three prizes, with $2500 awarded to the winner of the Memory Makers

Art Prize.

Including the prize money, there will be raffles of Rex Airline tickets, accommodation, art pieces, and vouchers to be given throughout the event.

“We have received a lot of support from local businesses in town,” she said.

“I’m excited it is all coming together.

“The things left now are things beyond my control like the weather and how many people decide to come along.”

Along with the art display, there will be live entertainment and guest speakers on the night, including Jane Edmanson OAM and Anne Gemmell.

Ms Edmanson will be returning on the Sunday to host a talk at 10am sharing her experiences of gardening.

On Sunday the Dubbo Garden Club will host a stall and share their knowledge about gardening techniques.

The event will be hosted at 40 Colony Crescent on the weekend of October 14 and 15.

Tickets for the cocktail night and open day can be purchased online via 123Tix.

Giving extra to kids in need

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

MORE than 1.2 million Australian children and young people are living in poverty, according to The Smith Family.

The Smith Family and the Voice Interests and Education of Women (VIEW) support one another in helping disadvantaged children in Australia by creating social change in communities.

VIEW club member Gail Scanlon has been sponsoring 9-year-old girl in Queensland or six months to provide further education essentials to the child.

She joined the VIEW club because of the friendship and the want of helping people.

“It makes you feel good when you’re helping someone,” Ms Scanlon said.

“$55 is drawn from my bank account each month, so I don’t even notice it.

“If you can afford it, I think it’s a great thing to be involved in.”

The sponsorship provides education equipment, including textbooks, internet access, uniform, and school excursions.

Ms Scanlon said she will continue sponsoring a child until she can no longer afford to.

That’s a question that I am often asked. It’s long been thought that spring is the best time however there are multiple factors that influence the expected success of a sale including your personal circumstances, your property type, your property’s presentation, the location, pricing and promotion, along with levels of comparable stock in the area and demand from prospective buyers.

If you need to sell quickly because you’ve already exchanged contracts on your next property, now is the best time. If you want to get the best possible price for your property and you have time on your side, use the time to prepare and present your property for sale, properly.

It is very hard to predict the future to pick the market and the best ‘time’. If you’re considering selling, please get in touch for a chat about the current Dubbo region market conditions and your property’s prospects. I can also help you with a market estimate so you can make an informed decision to help you move forward.

If you have a question that you would like us to discuss, please email Karen at karen@chantandco. com.au or call Karen on 0448 191167.

It’s Academic – Problem Solved

New warnings boost storm season readiness

WITH storm season well and truly upon us, Dubbo residents in Dubbo and across the region would do well to familiarise themselves with the new warning system being adopted by the NSW State Emergency Service (SES).

The new national three-tiered system aims to provide communities with greater clarity in the face of emergency conditions.

Early warnings save lives, according to Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders, who said the new system will “support everyone right across our region in making safe decisions”.

Under the new system, each type of warning will be accompanied by a clear action statement, such as “stay informed”, “prepare to evacuate” and “move to higher ground”, so people will know exactly what steps they need to take.

“The new warning system is a first for the SES and will deliver more targeted communication of the risks of floods and storms,” Mr Saunders said.

Storm season stretches from the beginning of October to the end of March, and with a third consecutive LaNina declared, authorities are warning about the dangers of complacency.

The new Australian Warning System includes three tiers: Advice; Watch and Act; and Emergency Warning.

Warnings during storms and flood events will continue to be distributed through text message alerts, the SES website, SES social media channels and mainstream media outlets.

SOME of the nation’s best problem solvers live right here in Dubbo!

The Central West Leadership Academy’s Global Issues Problem Solving Team has qualified for the National Finals for Future Problem Solvers for the third consecutive year.

The Year 9 team will be up against some stiff competition, with more than 240 teams in that age bracket in Melbourne on October 15.

Future Problem Solving is a competition where teams research a problem and are then presented with a future scenario that they need to solve. Students have just two hours to identify 16 problems from a variety of categories, identify an underlying problem, create 16 solutions,

evaluate and rank their solutions and make an action and implementation plan.

The Year 9 team, Imogen Bassett, Jake Spinks, Will Munro and Joey Besser, has competed for two years and are considered one of the best Future Problem Solving teams in the nation.

Academy principal Mandi Randell said the whole school community couldn’t be prouder.

“This is the core of Academy learning: challenging rigorous content in real world scenarios that takes hard work and dedication to achieve,” she said.

“For four years our team has tirelessly practiced and refined their skills and now have been acknowledged as some of the best creative and critical thinkers in the country.”

The Academy also had other

success. Two of its Year 10 teams entered the Community Problem Solving category where students identify a problem in their community and make and enact a community change project.

One team – George Ashcroft, Carrigan Baker and Noah Randell – completed a project trying to support young people to run for local government.

Finn Randell entered in the Individual Category for Community Problem Solving for his project in collaboration with Charles Sturt University (CSU) to create a podcast series to capture local elders’ lived experiences.

In the Scenario Writing category, Finn Randell has also qualified for the Nationals, the second time the school has entered this event and the second time a student from the Central West has

made the National finals for this futuristic creative writing event.

“We focus on critical thinking, creativity and community mindedness,” Mandi Randell said.

“We entered three competitions and have Nationals level qualifying entries in all three categories.

“These students have worked very hard to hone their skills and Dubbo should be very proud that we are so well represented on the national stage.”

FPS is a research-based, academic program that teaches problem solving strategies, collaboration, critical and creative thinking, and effective communication. The interdisciplinary approach helps develop ethical leadership skills and provides a unique opportunity for students to learn and apply essential life skills in the 21st century.

Carrigan Baker and Noah Randell are part of the Central West Leadership Academy’s Problem Solving contingent.

Sculptures selected for popular exhibit

DUBBO creative Jeffrey Hallinan has had four of his works selected as part of regional NSW’s most renowned outdoor sculpture exhibition.

Returning to Mudgee for the 12th year, Sculptures In The Garden will run at Rosby Winery from Saturday, October 8, to Sunday, October 23, with 130 artists showing more than 260 sculptures.

A self-described ‘backyard artist’, Mr Hallinan is a welder by trade and has been perfecting his craft for the past 45 years.

“A welding apprenticeship was chosen for me by my parents – every boy needs a trade,” he told Dubbo Photo News

“As it turned out I did enjoy the challenges and the art of the fusion of two or more metal parts into one piece with a purpose.

“I have spent a lifetime perfecting my welding style and pride myself on producing the best quality weld to withstand the tests of use and time.”

Inspired by the potential to create new shapes out of old farm equipment, Mr Hallinan will show works entitled The Still Swan, Reflections, All Things Being Equal and Cupid’s Bow and Arrow in this year’s

exhibition.

His works are priced between $750 and $3,500.

Describing his artistic process, Mr Hallinan said: “Sometimes as soon as I find an object, I en-

vision a new shape or use like in the creation of the Still Swan.

“Sometimes I scatter items over my garage floor and a new shape or use appears and I get to work

in creating it like the finished piece Reflections.”

Sculptures In The Garden is a non-for-profit event that typically draws 5,000 visitors each year. With live music on the

weekends and food, tea and coffee served daily, all entry fee proceeds are donated directly to The Mudgee Support Group for The Guide Dogs Association.

LOOK AFTER YOUR KIDNEYS

What do the kidneys do?

The kidneys are very important and are essential for living. They are the unsung hero of the body. Most people have two kidneys and they are about the size of a fist and sit on either side of the backbone. Each kidney is made up of about 1 million tiny filter ‘units’– called nephrons. This is also why a kidney doctor is called a Nephrologist. The kidneys serve four very important functions:

1. They filter – essentially, they ‘clean’ the blood (up to 200L a day) and eliminate the waste and excess fluid in the form of urine. This keeps the balance of chemicals and water in the body stable.

2. They control blood pressure by releasing a hormone called renin that is very important in blood pressure control.

3. They maintain healthy bones by releasing an enzyme that helps with calcium and phosphate balance in the body,

which is crucial for bone health.

4.They help make red blood cells by releasing a hormone called EPO, which tells the bones to make more red blood cells.

What can damage the kidney?

It’s important that the kidney stays healthy and doesn’t get scarred. Once it is scarred, it doesn’t filter as well and can lead to chronic kidney disease. When there is a lot of scarring and the kidney doesn’t filter much at all, dialysis is needed. This is where a machine does the job the kidneys are meant to do. Things that increase your risk of kidney damage are:

1.Diabetes

2.High blood pressure and smoking

3.Genetic diseases

4.Obesity

5.Being a First Nations person

6.Being older than 60

7.Having heart problems or

a previous stroke

8.Being sick in the past and your kidney function getting worse, but then recovering (this is called acute kidney injury)

How do I know if I have kidney problems?

Often, people won’t know they have problems because your kidney must lose a lot of function (sometimes more than 90 per cent) before you notice any symptoms.

The symptoms can be quite vague, but clues may be:

•Worsening blood pressure

•Changes in your urine colour and/or amount

•Swollen legs and other parts of your body

•Tiredness and fatigue

•Bad breath and a metallic taste in the mouth

•Nausea and vomiting

How can I prevent kidney damage?

If you’re healthy, then your kidneys will be healthy.

Regular exercise, limited alcohol intake, being a healthy weight and not smoking will significantly decrease your risk of kidney damage. If you have diabetes, good sugar control is very important. Blood pressure control is also important so ensure you have a healthy diet low in salt and regularly take any blood pressure medications you may be on. Depending on your other medical problems, your blood pressure should be below 140/90 mmHg. How much fluid should I drink to keep my kidneys happy?

There is no defined amount,

but you should be aiming to have a urine colour that is only faint yellow throughout the day. The first urine of the day may be a darker yellow colour, but this is okay. Water is the best fluid for the kidney, and always the best option. Avoid soft drinks as they are high in sugar.

I’m concerned I’m at risk of having kidney problems

If you have read this and think you may have a risk factor for kidney disease, ask your GP for a kidney health check. This involves checking your blood pressure, a urine test, and a blood test. Another test your doctor will look at is called your eGFR – this is an estimate of your overall kidney function as a per centage. When someone has less than 10 per cent kidney function, they may get started on dialysis.

Health, back in your hands

By LYDIA PEDRANA

OCTOBER marks World Health Literacy Month, with local medical professionals using the initiative to encourage the community manage their health more proactively.

Data reveals that proactive healthcare declined significantly during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the uptake of these services remains slow, despite lifting restrictions.

Tanya Forster, the director of Macquarie Health Collective hopes this World Health Literacy Month serves as a nudge for people to consider what health means for them, and what services are available, no matter their background.

“COVID has been a challenging time for our community,” she told Dubbo Photo News

“While our healthcare providers really have gone above and beyond to support our community, there have been elements of healthcare that have been challenging to provide.

“COVID also changed the focus for many people, and so many members of our community became less likely to access some of the proactive health-

care services that they otherwise would have accessed.”

At Macquarie Health Collective, cervical screenings were down almost 90 per cent, and skin checks down almost 70 per cent in 2021.

“We want to make sure we support people to try and prevent problems from occurring, rather than just managing them when they do,” Mrs Forster said.

“If there is one thing I could encourage our community to do this month, it would be to organise a check up with their GP and start a conversation.

“Learn to understand your health and what is available to you because you just never know the difference it could make for you.”

World Health Literacy Month is a 20-yearold global campaign that strives to elevate health literacy to achieve health equity.

Health literacy is defined as the degree to which individuals have the ability to find, understand, and use information and services to inform health-related decisions and actions for themselves and others.

Tanya Forster from Macquarie Health Collective is encouraging the community to brush up on health literacy this month.

HAVE you just celebrated your fur babies first birthday? Congratulations! That adorable little clumsy, sleepy puppy is now growing up to be an irreplaceable member of your family.

If your dog is now aged 12 -15months old, you will have received a letter from our vet reminding you of the next steps for annual follow up care.

Follow up care is essential; you may be unaware of some of preventable diseases that if ignored can have serious consequences for your best furry friend.

Canine Heartworm disease is a potentially fatal yet easily preventable disease of dogs. Don’t panic! This is an easy disease to prevent by using daily or monthly therapy or an annual injection. It is necessary to have an open discussion with your vet and review your pup’s history before starting heartworm treatment.

If your dog is older than six months and has not previously been on preventative therapy, the preventative medication given to dogs already infected with heartworm can be life threatening. A

blood test is recommended to ensure your dog is free of heartworm before medication is given.

The disease usually develops in dogs which are between four and 8-years-old (after having heartworm for several years) signs of the disease include decreased tolerance to exercise, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, coughing, abdominal swelling, and weight loss. The heartworm causes damage to the heart by restricting blood flow, damaging the heart valves.

The total amount of blood the heart can pump is reduced, forcing the heart and lungs to work harder than normal to compensate.

Adult heartworms live in the hearts of infected dogs, and they produce large numbers of larvae which circulate through the bloodstream. Larvae grow to become adult worms over a 6 month period.Thanks to Dubbo’s mosquito population heartworm is relatively common in Dubbo. Surveys conducted by Duncan McGinness Veterinary Surgery since April 1993 show that 1 in 7 dogs tested were infected. Due to the wide use of heartworm preventions, this number has reduced dramatically.

COLLEEN CONNOR has lived in Dubbo for five years, originally hailing from Chicago, Illinois, USA.

During an early morning walk with rescue dog Wendy, Colleen told DubboPhoto Newswalking the dog provided great enjoyment but there was another purpose behind the strolls this month.

“It’s September, so I’m actually getting my steps up to raise funds for the Cerebral Palsy Alliance with my work. Vista Print is doing September for their global team and we’re trying to get 10,000 steps today,” Colleen said.

Bevan Charlton-White says he loves getting outside to walk their dog.

“The dog’s pretty active so we walk her pretty regularly,” he said.

And who gets more enjoyment?

“Definitely the dog, but we’re not far behind, she’s a beautiful friend, a best friend.”

Wendy was a rescue-dog from the Dubbo City Animal Shelter, she’s mostly Kelpie with what looks like Border-Collie in her as well.

Inquiry turns spotlight on elections

POLITICS aficionados across Dubbo and the region will be interested to know the federal parliamentary light is being shone on the ins and outs of the last election, with the Electoral Matters Committee inquiry getting underway this week.

Beginning with the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC), the inquiry is holding hearings into this year’s federal election, held in May, to look at what worked well along with areas of operation that might need reform for future elections.

There were more than 17 million voters who took part in the 2022 election, a huge logistical exercise made more complex by the pandemic.

The inquiry will examine various elements of the election including funding of elections, truth in political advertising laws, and Indigenous enrolment and participation in elections.

If you’d like to tune in to any of the hearing, you can do so through the public broadcast at https://parlview.aph.gov.

ARIES: You’ll try your best to impress those around you. You’ll increase your client base to reach one of your goals at work. Don’t be afraid to move forward. If you take action, you’ll achieve success.

CANCER: Whether starting a new career or retiring, you’ll clearly figure out your next steps. You must create a plan to ensure your future meets your expectations and aspirations.

LEO: You’ll consider doing an apprenticeship that will propel your career forward. You’ll face new challenges that will that require patience. You’ll also be motivated to work toward your goals.

VIRGO: After much reflection, you’ll make important changes to your environment. You’ll need to thoroughly review your priorities and find a living situation that suits your needs.

LIBRA: You may feel the need to say yes to everyone. This will put a lot of pressure on you to keep your commitments. You’ll find it hard to make a decision with the right information; reflection is needed.

SCORPIO:

You’ll work extra hours to improve your financial situation.

You may also realise that you need to make more time for your love life.

SAGITTARIUS: You’ll be in the right place at the right time. This will allow you to stand out and make a good impression. At work, you’ll be rewarded, or at least given the recognition you deserve.

AQUARIUS: You’ll be outspoken and express what others are thinking. You must be authoritative in a complex and upsetting situation to reach an agreement.

PISCES: You’ll have to invest a significant amount of money in your career. You may need to buy a new vehicle to avoid breaking down or impress your clients.

The luckiest signs this week: Gemini, Cancer and Leo.

Native birds are counting on us

EYES up, Dubbo – our native feathered friends need your help.

From October 17-23, we have the opportunity to take part in an important head count of Australia’s beautiful native parrots, with BirdLife Australia’s Aussie Bird Count which aims to uncover new data to help preserve these precious creatures. The data collected by citizen scientists just like us will be used to help the organisation track and protect native birds.

By taking part in the count, which is open to all ages, you’ll not only have some good clean fun in the great outdoors, you’ll also help uncover new information about native parrot species which is important because the existing data shows we have reason to be concerned about the future of these much-loved, brightly coloured birds including the Eastern Rosella – a common sight in Dubbo –and the Australian Ringneck.

All you have to do is spend 20 minutes in your favourite outdoor spot, counting birds you see in that time. You can do this from anywhere – in your backyard, at the park, out in the bush, down near the river or in the main street.

Taking a count at the same time each year builds a snapshot of how Aussie birds are faring, which in turn helps identify trends over time and also gauge the overall health

And if saving these beautiful birds isn’t incentive enough, you could also win a share of $10,000 in priz-

spot and note the birds that you see. You’ll need to count the number of each species –eg, you might see four magpies, two Rainbow Lorikeets

Position Vacant

and a cockatoo. If you can identify birds by their calls, please include these in your count, but if you’re not sure, don’t guess – leave it out. The Aussie Bird Count app has a handy field-guide to help you



Once you have completed your count, you can submit it via the website or through the app.

Keeping fit with mother and daughter dynamic

By TIJANA BIRDJAN

LISA and Maddie Tratt have only been working together for a couple of months but have already left an imprint in the RSL Health Club.

Lisa has been working at the gym as a personal trainer and group exercise instructor for 27 years, while her daughter Maddie has only recently secured a position as a yoga instructor and receptionist.

Maddie remembers from a young age her mum would bring her in during the school holidays to assist her with dance classes.

“I only began working here halfway through term two this year, but the staff have all been really welcoming,” Maddie told DubboPhotoNews

“I started doing yoga teaching because I do a lot of dance teaching, so I wanted to keep my yoga up.

“I knew that if I became a teacher, it would help me out.”

Maddie reassures the gratitude she has for working with her mum and the rest of the health team.

“No one makes you feel uncomfortable in the space, and they really allow you to go on that journey that you are wanting to go on,” Maddie said.

“It’s amazing to have my mum as my role model and have her assist me in my learning.

“I’m already leaps ahead of where I was when I initially started because I have her behind me.”

Lisa said they’re a force that is opposite yet similar when it comes to the gym.

“Maddie is a calming energy, she has a way about her that brings peace and harmony, so with her yoga teaching, everyone is loving what she brings to the gym,” Lisa said.

“I love the fact she is bringing so much happiness to everybody and

How to land your first job as a recent graduate

DID you recently graduate from university, or will you soon be finishing your uni course? Are you looking for your first real job?

Although you may come across jobs that require several years of experience, don’t be discouraged. Here are a few tips to get your application noticed.

Inform your contacts

Tell your parents, friends and former classmates about your job search. Try to name specific companies that interest you. Someone you know may have a close connection that can help you adjust

your application accordingly and increase your chances of being selected.

It’s a good idea to participate in networking activities and publicise your job search on social media.

Be humble Be realistic. Don’t apply for high-level jobs with six-figure salaries. This will only leave you disappointed.

As a new graduate, think of your first job as an opportunity to gain experience and prove yourself. If you work hard, you’ll eventually

climb up the corporate ladder.

Take care of your paperwork

You’ll probably be up against several other candidates vying for the same position. Therefore, make your resume and cover letter stand out by incorporating relevant keywords and action verbs to capture the recruiter’s attention.

You may want to hire a resume-writing specialist to help you launch your career.

Browse your local job agencies, positions vacant in the newspaper, and online job sites to find a career that suits your skillset.

teaching them how to use their bodies more efficiently.”

Lisa has been working at the gym for almost three decades and loves the variety in her work.

When she first started the instructors noticed her struggling but were aware of her passion and determination.

“Passion is the hardest thing to teach someone, so I worked through, and it’s been a dream job,” she said.

Lisa teaches 17 timetabled classes, five aged care sessions, and individual personal training sessions.

“I probably do a lot more now than I did before,” she said.

Turning 60 this year, Lisa said she realised she wanted to start tackling fears three years ago.

“My new passion is Ironman paddling – my biggest fear has always been the ocean,” Lisa said.

“I always said that when I get to this age, I want to do stuff that I loved as well as work.

“I don’t want to spend my whole life working.

“Overcoming my fear has been the biggest challenge of my life.

“The ocean is so hard to understand, and I didn’t have any understanding whatsoever and it has been so rewarding.”

Four of her children moved to Sydney and familiarised Lisa with the ocean by monthly or fortnightly visits to the beach.

Lisa said her children bought her a board to succeed in overcoming her fear.

“The ocean is much life, you have to be prepared for anything because you think you know what’s coming, but you turn your head for second and a boomer of a wave will come in,” she said.

She acknowledged the waves reignited her passion for life.

Watch out Jack, it’s Jeff of all Trades

How does Jeff of All Trades work?

Every homeowner knows those little maintenance jobs build up over time. A tile falls off the wall, doors become loose, knobs fall off, the shower leaks, the taps need changing, there’s a hole in the wall, a new dryer needs to be put on the wall, the list goes on and on.

There are also those annual jobs that should be done: cleaning the gutters, washing the solar panels, pruning the hedge, service air conditioning units.

Repairing/servicing each of these items as they happen can cost, big time. Ignoring them completely can cost even more in the long run.

How Jeff of all trades works is that the resident puts a list of all those “little” jobs together, makes an appointment to discuss and create a list of the most pressing jobs that can be completed in a day, for one fixed cost of $450 plus parts and Jeff will complete the agreed work.

What’s a day?

A day starts early and finishes as long as it takes to get the agreed work finished – a minimum of eight (8) hours.

Residents can book Jeff of all Trades to return each year to complete the annual services their home requires. Is it true your day rate can be shared across neighbours?

Absolutely, it’s all about maximising

time and value for money so neighbours in the same street can share the time and cost.

What kinds of work/repairs/maintenance do you do?

Perhaps the best way to give you an idea is to look at what I’ve done just this week; reattached an internal door, door handle installs, a back door not closing due to swelling so a repair, seal and paint.

Replace light bulbs, replace shelving in kitchen cupboard (damaged due to a water leak), replace tap washers, repair and replace fence panels, clean gutters, rehang a sliding door, replace missing tiles in shower and reseal, regrout loose tiles, install a security door, re-gauze doors and windows, build flat pack furniture, install a towel rack, rehang a hinged door, reset air conditioning vents, remove awnings and reinstall, replace rotten beams in carport and verandah, mount TV antennae, install and seal storm water pipes, wall mount a clothes dryer, repair holes in wall plaster...

I have a list of services on my website: www.jeffofalltrades.com.au

How long have you been a handy man/ tradesperson?

I am a welder by trade and have been fortunate to have learnt many additional skills over my working life of 40 years that make me a very handy

man. I am lucky to have a large shed of my own and all the necessary tools and equipment to fix any issue a single level home may have.

It gives me great personal satisfaction to design and create home improvements and well as to service and maintain a home – be it mine or yours.

Are you from Dubbo?

Dubbo is my hometown and the postcode that I service.

Do you tidy up after you’re done?

I treat your home like my own and a job isn’t complete unless the mess is gone too.

Anything else you’d like to add about your business products and services?

While focused on growing my full day service offering, I am also available to come and fix that one urgent job you need fixed.

Inspection/End of lease repairs, repairs to commercial premises, work for commercial businesses such as Real Estate Agent and other housing organisations is the kind of work I am available to assist with.

I am fully insured and hold several workplace and construction site tickets and happy to discuss any opportunity or problem that I may be able to assist with.

Please follow me on Facebook or visit my website: www.jeffofalltrades.com.au

Kick your clutter to the kerb

IF your man cave, shed or spare room is bursting at the seams, now’s the perfect time for a good old fashioned spring clean, with council’s annual bulky rubbish collection fast approaching.

Dubbo Regional Council’s popular free kerbside pick-up of bulky rubbish will begin from October 17 in Wellington and from October 24 in Dubbo for a month.

Council advises if you have unwanted bulky items, pop them out onto the footpath, making sure it’s not obstructing people from using the pathway, and make sure you sort your rubbish into separate piles for scrap metal, e-Waste and garden waste, with anything else sorted into another pile.

This is helpful because council sends four separate trucks to pick up the four “waste streams”, while a fifth truck picks up mattresses.

Council reminds residents that the bulky goods should be no more than a small-box trailer full.

People should also keep checking on the dates for scheduled collection in each neighbourhood, as these may change as the process progresses depending on the amount of waste put out on the kerb.

You can determine the approximate period of collection for your neighbourhood by going to www. dubbo.nsw.gov.au/bulkyrubbish

Walking towards hope for suicide prevention

WITH the ripple effect of the pandemic still making itself felt across the world, there’s never been a more important time to check in on family and friends, particularly those who may be struggling to cope with tougher than usual times.

It’s in this light, that the National Association for Loss and Grief (NALAG) will again take to the streets for its Walk Towards Hope, an annual event aimed at promoting suicide awareness, prevention and support for those bereaved.

Forced into cyber space for the past two years thanks to COVID, the walk will this year bring people together physically to walk across Dubbo’s LH Ford Bridge in a symbolic gesture to not only show care and support, but raise awareness.

To be held on Saturday, October 29, the event involves a walk across the bridge from east to west, a remembering ceremony and free BBQ lunch, and people who take part will be given a

commemorative t-shirt.

According to NALAG CEO Debbie Todkill, the Walk Towards Hope – to which everyone is invited – is a chance for the wider community to unite in the common hope of making a difference for people at risk of suicide not only here at home but all over the world.

“The Walk Towards Hope is an opportunity for people from all walks of life to come together and demonstrate that we, as a community, care about preventing suicide in Dubbo and the world over.”

The event aims to encourage people to talk about suicide, and to generate further community discussion about how to prevent it.

“As members of communities, it is our responsibility to look out for those who may be struggling, check in with them, and encourage them to tell their story in their own way and at their own pace,” Ms Todkill said.

The Australian Institute of

Health and Welfare has acknowledged that suicidal ideation and self-harm remains high in 2022, particularly among young adults, with 12 per cent of Australian adults having reported severe psychological distress this year.

Pandemic isolation, financial stress and online bullying have been identified as possible reasons for the concerning statistics.

Ms Todkill believes ending stigma around mental health is key to eliminating self-harm and suicide in Australia.

“Talking openly about suicide and showing those at risk that we care, empowers them to speak up and ask for help.”

The walk will also feature a Remembering Ceremony, to acknowledge and remember those who have lost their lives to suicide.

Member for Dubbo Dugald Saunders, who will take part in the walk alongside special guest Bronnie Taylor, NSW Minister for Mental Health, commended NALAG on its initiatives in the

space.

“The Walk Towards Hope is always a really moving gathering, bringing people together to remember those we’ve lost and hope for a better future.

“I’d really encourage everyone to come along, particularly people who have been touched by the tragedy of suicide or those who want to show support for family, friends or community members who have been impacted by suicide.”

Everyone is welcome to attend the Walk Towards Hope, which will commence at 11am from Bob Jane T-Marts on Macquarie Street and conclude at 1:30pm at Lions Park in West Dubbo.

Participation is completely free, with no prior registration necessary. For more information, visit www.nalag.org.au/events or phone the NALAG Dubbo office on 6882 9222.

If you or someone you know requires urgent crisis support, call Lifeline at any time on 13 11 14, or in an emergency, dial 000.

Groovy Booby Bus hits the highway

AFTER travelling 22,000 kms last year around five states, Dubbo’s well-known campaigner Donna Falconer will hit the highway in her now famous Groovy Booby Bus throughout October’s official breast cancer awareness month.

A fitting first stop on a tour to promote breast awareness was the Dolly Festival in Narromine, where a plethora of pink fun was just the thing to kick-start important conversations about early detection in the fight against breast cancer.

Donna headed to Mudgee to speak at a women’s group and from there, the Groovy Booby Bus will head north for a visit to Bingara in the New England, where Donna be speaking at sessions at the 35th National CMCA (Campervan and Motorhomes Club of Australia) rally which will see around 850 attendees.

From there, it will be on to Warwick in Queensland to speak at a Rotary meeting, before pointing “Groovy’s” nose toward Middlemount, which is a rural mining town 400km northwest of Rockhampton, where she will speak at a Wellness Expo event.

It’s six years since the groovy grandmother quit her job, sold her house to buy a Winnebago and hit the roads around Australia to share her story of how, at the age of 44, a free breast screen saved her life.

Her book, My Time: Through Breast Cancer and Beyond, details her journey through the chance diagnosis, treatment and the road to wellness, a story she uses to underline the idea that breast cancer knows no boundaries and can happen to anyone.

Donna has directed all proceeds in their entirety to the McGrath Foundation to help

fund breast care nurses, and to the Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA). To date, she has donated $7,000 to each charity from book sales.

“Being ‘breast aware’ means becoming familiar with the normal look and feel of your breasts,” says Donna. “You need to see your GP if you notice changes or have concerns. You can find more information on risk factors, reducing your risk, on screening and also on

myths about breast cancer, by going to bcna.org.au.”

A Free 20-minute mammogram is available to women aged over 40 through BreastScreen in all Australian states by calling 13 20 50.

For more information, you can email donna@groovyboobybus.com or call her on 0417 455 787. You can also visit www.groovyboobybus.com and follow Groovy Booby Bus on Facebook and Instagram.

Keep abreast of the stats:

Breast Cancer is the most commonly dia gnosed cancer in Australia.

Approximately 57 Australians every day will be diagnosed. In 2022 that’s 20,741 One in seven women will be diagnosed by a ge 85

Only one out of every 10 people diagnosed have a family history. It is predicted that 212 Australian men will be diagnosed with breast cancer in 2022.

Deaths from breast cancer are still around 3000, as of this year. Early detection can boost your chances of surviving breast cancer. Many women have no signs or symptoms.

THE TOONS’ VIEWS

It’s “Love Your Bookshop Day”

By DAVE PANKHURST, The Book Connection

THIS Saturday, October 8, bookstores across Australia are celebrating “Love Your Bookshop Day” and the emphasis is to encourage local communities to reflect on – and patronise – the bookstores in their area.

Dubbo serves a wide geographic region with people regularly coming into our bookstore from east of Mudgee and Orange, south to Parkes and Condobolin, west to Cobar and Bourke, and north to Enngonia and Goodooga.

With tourism relaxing through the nation since the end of Covid restrictions, we are seeing interstate visitors returning to our store too.

Talking with any of these folk we find that some have been in to shop with us on previous trips. For those of us working in the bookstore, it is a natural habit to encourage people from everywhere to “love their bookstore”.

Bookshops are continuing to serve communities. In the last 20 years a range of challenges such as Amazon, Booktopia, electronic pieces and online textbooks (particularly for tertiary level studies) has seen a dramatic shift in the challenges to bookselling. However, we are so thankful at The Book Connection for the ongoing support being received from our many loyal customers.

The experience of meeting with visitors to the bookstore is our social life, and considering there are seven days a week, this presents lots of opportunities to meet with folk having similar interests.

Humans have been writing and reading for thousands of years. Recently, I have been reading Yuval Noah Harari’s book “Sapiens – a Brief History of Humankind” and, among other issues, we can see how humans have passed on their experiences and learning to future generations.

Another book of similar text is Stephen Fry’s “Mythos – the Greek Myths Retold” in which he relates “the loves and quarrels, desires and deceivers of the Greek gods and goddesses”.

Reading in this “modern age” impacts on so many in the community, with newspapers, magazines and books being a source that people need to acquire their information –this makes bookstores one of those essential sources and those of us working here endeavour to make the choices, style and data for the reader a rewarding experience.

At The Book Connection we are well aware of the options that book buyers have. Having been booksellers for almost 40 years, we began as a retail store in a shopping mall on Dubbo’s Macquarie Street, and in 1990 took over Bill Hornadge’s mail order business where we dis-

tributed books by post all over Australia. We merged these two operations into our current location in 1990.

Making our bookstore a preferred option for shoppers to support is part of marketing. Like any friendships or connections, one has to adjust behaviour, practices and factors so that we appeal to book-buyers – so that “love your bookshop” can be a reality.

The owner of the Raven Book Store in Lawrence, Kansas has written a new book “How to Resist Amazon and Why”. In it he relates how, as a local bookshop, he has met the challenges of competing against a major online bookseller.

Another challenge for Australian bookshops has been Booktopia, but its recent internal conflicts has seen its share price drop to $0.25 as indicated in the September 22 issue of The Sydney Morning Herald. Country people like stability. Bookstores around the world have survived the challenges of Covid. In Wigtown, the owner of the largest second-hand bookshop in Scotland has written his third book “Confessions of a Bookseller” – each of his titles relate experiences of contacts with customers from all over that country. He used to use Amazon as a website to help sell his own stock, but ceased when he found there was no advantage in the

arrangement to him.

In our bookstore we stock close to 50,000 books and can say “yes we have that title” quite often, and the range in itself is an attraction for folk.

When we first started to consider stocking second-hand books as part of the range in our Dubbo bookstore, a customer who knew my earlier days of travelling to our machinery business in Portland, Oregon, recommended that I visit Powells Bookstore there. It is co-incidental that Portland was the city where our American business was registered. Michael Powell is my age but now retired – his knowledge provided to us has been valuable.

One reason why you can love our bookshop is the support we receive from so many regional authors. The talents these writers show is reflected in so many books and just a few of them are shown at the bottom of this column.

Bookselling is an interesting occupation. Yes, we get to read many books but the social life makes it a superior venture. The four ladies who meet you in the bookstore enjoy their work – Rae has been with us for 20 years.

Books offer enjoyment, comfort, reassurance, knowledge, challenges and so much more in life. We aim to make your experience of browsing our shelves and discussing your interests with those of us offering service a personally rewarding experience – and another reason to love your bookstore, not just on the 8th of October, but every day.

Enjoy your browsing,

Dave Pankhurst

THE THUMBS

 Thumbs Up to Dubbo Drama Club for their production of “Robin Hood”. It was highly entertaining and amusing. Well done to all the actors you were great. Wonderful production. Thumbs up to all involved.

 Thumbs Down to the people who think that residential Dubbo is their own private farm, having too many dogs, barking all hours of the day and night. Also having unauthorised roosters in residential neighbourhoods.

 Thumbs Up to Maria Lee in the men’s department at Myer. They just helped me when I didn’t expect it, they were amazing and wonderful helping me exchange something I’d purchased online which was not the right size. Nothing was a problem. Thank you.

 Thumbs Up to DRC for installing gross pollutant traps for our Macquarie River; urgently needed. Thank you.

 Thumbs Up to the Wedding Shoppe. The two ladies working in there on Wednesday, September 28, were not only accommodating but made my daughter feel comfortable and confident (about her body even though she has poor body image of herself) and how she looked in the dresses she tried on.

 Thumbs Up to Experimac at Orana Mall for fixing my Android screen protector. Fast efficient and inexpensive. Three places at the mall couldn’t help. I should have gone to Experimac first.

 Thumbs Up to the Dolly Parton Festival at Narromine over the weekend. What a hoot! Great atmosphere and fun.

 Thumbs Up to Narromine, the Dolly festival was a great event, congratulations to all concerned.

Numbers add up to one exceptional student

ONE of Dubbo’s brightest young mathematical minds has outshone many of her peers during a recent competition involving 16,000 primary school students from across the state.

Year 6 St Laurence’s student Angelina Perera achieved outstanding results in this year’s Newcastle Permanent Primary School Mathematics Competition, and along with

Gil CWA honours Her Majesty

Contributed by GILGANDRA CWA EVENING BRANCH

two students from Nashdale Public School, was presented with a district award to recognise the impressive results.

Angelina accepted both the award and a prize of a complimentary $50 account during a special afternoon tea held at the Dubbo branch in her honour.

In presenting the award, branch manager Karina

Rayner said all students who participated are to be congratulated because "testing yourself to improve numeracy and problem-solving skills is important for success in school, work and life".

The competition involved the students completing 35 maths questions in 45 minutes without the help of calculators, rulers or other instruments.

GILGANDRA’S CWA Evening Branch recently held its September meeting with members and guests observing a minute’s silence in honour of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, whose reign has been acknowledged by the organisation with the reciting of its motto at each meeting at which “loyalty to the throne” is pledged.

Members heard that a de-

fibrillator has been installed at the CWA rooms, the life-saving device being appropriate for a building used every day for such purposes as drivers license training, nutritional training and the CWA Windmill yarners and patch workshop.

Members have been invited to a tree planting at the Coo-ee Heritage centre in honour of Queen Elizabeth II and final arrangements were also made for the serving of morning teat for the Back to Gilgandra

long-weekend.

Among other business discussed was information on holding First Aid Training, and members heard from a couple who wrote to the CWA saying they had sought first aid training to assist with their child’s medical condition, only to find the cost prohibitive. The couple felt that cost could deter people from seeking out training, so members discussed what the CWA might be able to do to address this matter.

Beast

By AARON HILL

BEAST is a new horror action film and stars Idris Elba as a leading doctor with two daughters.

The family experience a South African game managed by a wildlife biologist, but things turn sideways when a rouge lion begins its hunt.

n

Have you ever wanted to see Idris Elba fight a wild lion? Have you ever wanted to see a compelling story? Well, I’ve got good news and I’ve got bad news. You get to see Idris Elba fight a lion, but the story isn’t compelling in

the slightest. There are a handful minor cringe moments in the film.

the h m

This film has multiple scenes that have been completed in one take. It has some 1917 vibes for the most part.

vib

The lion scenes were enjoyable, however, the CGI parts were a bit wonky, but other than that it was intense.

In conclusion, this film may be worth your time if you wanted to see Idris Elba fight a lion, and I’m giving this one a 6/10

WHAT ZONE ARE YOU IN?

Frequently asked questions

1. What happens if I have not put my rubbish out in time for my collection date?

Unfortunately, the contractor we engage to do the kerbside collection is running on a tight schedule, so any waste that is placed out for collection AFTER the allocated date for your zone will not be collected, and will remain the responsibility of the resident.

2. Is there a limit to what I can place on the kerb?

Yes, there is a limit of the equivalent of one level box trailer load, or one cubic metre of garbage per residence.

3. What can be placed on the kerb for collection?

As long as you do not exceed your box trailer size limit, most things can be placed on the kerbside. Please ensure whitegoods and other metal items are placed in a separate heap for collection. Please remove doors from old freezers and fridges. Green waste should be placed in a separate heap. This excludes lawn clippings.

4. What items are NOT accepted?

Household hazardous waste and liquids such as poisons, oil, paint and batteries will not be collected. You can however take household items such as paint, oil, gas bottles and batteries to Council’s Community Recycling Centre at Whylandra Waste & Recycling Facility. It is free-of-charge to dispose of these items at the facility.

Truck and tractor tyres will also not be accepted as part of the kerbside collection.

5.How much does it cost?

Council’s annual kerbside collection is FREE for all eligible residents in the Dubbo Regional Council Local Government Area.

Sky high fun at Kites for Kids

By KEN SMITH

THE sun shone brightly on a fun-packed Kites for Kids 2022 last Sunday, when families gathered at South Dubbo Oval.

An early arrival for many families saw full tables of budding artists getting their kites just right before taking to the oval and letting them fly.

Buninyong SACC (Schools as Community Centre), Mission Australia, Live Better and HIPPY (Dubbo) hosted Kites for Kids 2022 on Sunday, September 25.

THE renowned Czech Ballet performed Swan Lake at Dubbo’s Regional Theatre and Convention Centre last week with more than 700 people attending over two evenings.

Ballet lovers travelled from as far afield as Coonamble, Warren, Nyngan, Coonabarabran and Girilambone and the ages of the attendees ranged from five to 95, illustrating just how strong the drawing power is for world class ballet.

While tanning remains popular despite the documented health risks (there could be a reason it’s called ‘sun-baking’), American health authorities have estimated that if folks under the age of 18 stopped using tanning beds, over 60,000 melanomas and melanoma-related deaths could be prevented.

In 1987, a man convinced 2.8 million people to send him a onecent-piece (a US penny) each for his college education.

Dubai is the most air-conditioned city in the world.

A 1924 Arizona law made it illegal for donkeys to sleep in bathtubs.

Crakow shoes, a pointy footwear popular in the 14th century, could get so long that the toe of the shoe had to be attached to the leg with a string so that it wouldn’t drag.

Ever noticed that all ads for the iPhone display a time of 9:41? That’s because Apple co-founder Steve Jobs first announced the device’s launch in 2007 at 9.41am.

NOW HERE’S A TIP

Necklace chains that have turned dark due to oils in your skin can be washed in warm water with a dab of shampoo mixed in. Also, keep your old earring backs – they might fit a different pair if one gets lost! – M.F.

To freshen the colour of carpets (and destroy moth larvae or flea eggs), liberally sprinkle salt on them before vacuuming. I use a cleaned out Parmesan cheese container for this. It works very well. – J.K.

To clean the glass inside your oven door, use the stovetop cleaner for your glass stovetop. – V.P.

Use cold, salted water to defrost a chicken for roasting. You will have very flavourful and moist meat.

– E.D.

Save plastic lidded containers from the kitchen. Cover with colourful duct tape, and they can be used as storage or even as gift wrapping.

Disposable razors can be used to remove burrs from sweaters or wool slacks. Just be sure to keep it out of the reach of children. – O.D.

A large lidded cereal container makes a great water-tight garbage bin for the car. Line it with a bag and snap on the lid. When the pour spout is closed, even runny messes are contained.

Raisa conquers the world

By GEOFF MANN

LOCAL Chinese Medicine Practitioner and Acupuncturist Raisa Kolesnikova has claimed her place in world running history.

On Sunday the 64-year-old, who only started running about ten years ago, conquered the pinnacle of long distance events – the Six Abbott Major Marathons.

“I am so thrilled and feel amazing after my London Marathon run. Very happy with the result of finally finishing the Abbott World Marathon Majors,” Raisa messaged me at 3am Tuesday morning AEST.

“I can proudly say I am the first person in Dubbo and the NSW regional area to achieve the Abbot Majors Medal. I am also the first female in my age category for Australia,” she continued with pride in her amazing accomplishment.

Raisa has become “addicted” after starting with “a few laps of the South Dubbo Oval” while her kids were at sports training. It grew into a lap around the block and before long the then mid-50s enthusiast fell in love with the sport and was soon up to 10kms.

“Then came half-marathons and finally a full marathon in Canberra,” she bubbled.

Raisa is now a true believer in the power of long distance races.

“Running brings us together for friendship, fitness, encouragement, support and inspiration!

It is a great hobby I picked up eight years ago. I have never

looked back.”

Raisa was full of praise for her running buddies, the Dubbo community. Team Penman – athletics coach and mentor Mark Penman – and Body Options “who have encouraged me on my journey to enhance sustainable, healthy, lifestyle choices”.

Three years ago her husband, Dubbo Chiropractor Adam Carter, suffered a heart attack when the couple were preparing for one of Raisa’s major goals.

“That was the scariest time in my whole life. Instead of warm-

ing up for the marathon I was putting into practice my respiratory recovery training. I thought I had lost my husband but thankfully I was able to keep his heart beating until medical help arrived.”

The incident cemented an already strong partnership. Raisa says that Adam is “last but certainly not least” on her list of thank-yous.

“My dear husband Adam Carter for his support, his effort in planning my trips, checking my running track and locating my start and finish line! He also tracks me

during my race so he is able to take some photos. Adam usually runs a half marathon by the time I’ve finished my full marathon,” Raisa laughed.

In the world of mountain climbing they speak of the Seven Summits, the highest mountains on each continent as the holy grail for climbers; in running it is the big six major World Marathons – Berlin, Chicago, Boston, New York City, Tokyo and London.

Now Raisa has conquered them all... and some!

Australian singlet for Jessie-May

By GEOFF MANN

IN recent months we’ve highlighted the amazingly talented Jessie-May Hall, granddaughter of Margie and the late Steve “Bear” Hall.

After being named Player of the Championships after guiding NSW to a national title, Jessie-May been selected to rep-

resent Australia Under-15s in Guam in November.

Her aunt, Michelle, posted on social media.

“What an unbelievable achievement. She is literally a superstar. This kid is set for great things! We all couldn't be prouder of the humble, talented and beautiful young lady.”

Michelle had an extra acco-

lade for her brother Steve Jnr.

“And a huge shoutout to my baby bro, beautiful sis-in-law for all the time, effort, money and basketball genes they've given MayMay”.

We will keep watching. Now the GOAT Lauren Jackson has retired there is space for an upcoming champion!

Ron tried to beat

in the heats of the 25 metres Freestyle.

Marg Ross and Brian Schloeffel both broke in the final of the 25m Freestyle allowing Jacob Pearce to win, a close 0.88 off his time.

Leilani and Mia Uebergang combined beautifully in the final of the 2x25 metre Backstroke/Breaststroke Brace relay. Unfortunately they broke their time by a meagre -0.16 and handed the win to Norm Bahr and Taylor Darlington who came in at +0.16.

Leilani wasn’t content with that and took out the closest to time 25 metres Breaststroke (1.87) from grandmother, Judy Walsh.

Peter Hargreaves couldn’t make it a hat trick in the final of the 50m Freestyle, having to be content with fourth place behind Judy Walsh, Rob Rich and Jacob Pearce who, incidentally, clocked up 100 Duck dives on Sunday.

Lucky numbers – Leilani and Mia Uebergang

Sundee Bowls’ excellent long weekend turnout

A TOTAL of 38 rolled up for bowls on Sunday and each offered their congrats to Jono Davis on his Australian Champion of Champions title (see separate article in today Sport section).

Paul Goodstat (skip), Pete Bennison and Chris Strojny took on Bryan O’Sullivan, Gaye Cottee and Mary Perry. Only one shot separated the teams after eight; Paul’s team pushed ahead at 10; evens after 11 then Sully’s mob shot out by three after a triple; Paul’s four on 13 had them back in front and they scored singles on each of the last three – 14-10 final score.

Carl New returned to Combo to join Dave Davis and Col Dover; another “newbie”, Spot Ryan

partnered Roger Sherwin and Greg Brown. Five-all after six; Carl’s ahead by three at the turnaround. The newcomers were finding the synthetics tricky however Carl and his partners cleared out to an 18-7 win with consistent ends after the break. 18-7 final score.

Rob Pfeiffer and Phil Knight paired up against Gordon Scott and Julie Brown. Both can be quite mean bowlers on the day! Gordon and Julie led by four after six then Rob and Phil tied it up before things dried up for a full seven ends. In that time Gordon and Julie rolled in several multiples and scored an easy 20 shots to nine, 11 ends to five.

Pat Sherwin, Steve Kelly and Matt Quill fought to a thrilling draw with Helene Emblen,

Ray Strawhan and Tod O’Dea downed. Matt has been off bowls for some time now, recovering from a shoulder injury, but he made his mark on Sunday. Team Sherwin had a fabulous start with 12 shots after four; Team Emblen scoring a morale-boosting five on the next but conceded another four to trail. Y 10 at the break.

After the turnaround, the Emblens rolled a three, a four and a two to be a couple down and they narrowed it by one on the next. The Sherwins went two ahead with one to play and it took a calm double by the Emblens to lock the game at 19-all. Matt Q’s friends won 9 of the ends.

Shirley Marchant, Mel Giddings and John Cole had inspiration; John Kennedy, Doc Livingston and Pete Ruzans had aspirations.

The opening three ends were disastrous for the “aspirations”; the others played inspired bowls to lead by 10.

Only one side smiled at the end of the first 8 ends, with 20 shots posted, Shirley, Mel and John were in a groove, their cockiness was brutal! Despite a spirited comeback as Coley’s mob suffered second half blues, the first eight ends proved decisive – 23-15.

Another game of two halves! David Crane, Karen Greenhalge and Eric Satchell were locked up with Vicki Hummel, Allan Stratford and Col Cottee at 7 shots each despite scoring on six of the ends. Col’s team blasted a six on end four then proceeded to chalk up shots on six on the back half to record a couple of triples, a double and a smattering of ones. The

multiples in the last half ended Eric’s hopes, Col and mates home 18-11; 8 ends each.

Leo Balstad and Chris Cristante against Gordon Lummis and Mick Strawhan. The former scored the first four shots then Gordon and Mick tied it up. Leo and Chris turned three in front, added four on nine, then conceded as many! It was 14-all after 15. Leo was almost beside himself! Somehow he urged Chris and they recorded two big ones for a 16-14 victory.

 Winners on a countback – Carl New, Dave Davis and Col Dover  Runners up – Julie Brown and Gordon Scott.

 Rester – Vicki Hummel

 Lucky numbers – Matt Quill, Pat Sherwin and Tod O’Dea

Jono Davis a natural bowls talent

By GEOFF MANN

JONO Davis was a “child prodigy” lawn bowler; today he is the Australian Singles Champion of Champions.

Jono was only just in his teens when he started going to social bowls at the old Dubbo City Bowling Club in Victoria Park.

He asked dad Steve if he could have a roll. From the first time he stepped onto the mat it was apparent to all in the club that “young Jono” was something special.

He swept through Club, Region and Zone age and open championships, and was crowned king of the National Juniors. At 14 he created history when he won the NSW Champion of Club Champion titles.

He led the Australian Development Team in Trans-Tasman series against New Zealand and confirmed his immense talent when he claimed gold medals at two consecutive Commonwealth Youth Games.

Jono was recruited to play State League with a Sydney-based club but in recent years has found other interests and bowls became a secondary interest. It was always thought he would return to the game and this year has made the Macquarie Club his home turf and he has been in impeccable form.

Last weekend the “child prodigy” threw off the mantle to be ranked with the nation’s best. Jono now has his eyes set on the International Fours coming up at Club Dubbo next month. Commonwealth Games would almost certainly be his aim for 2026 with greens in regional centres already being prepared for the world’s “most biased” sports people.

Congratulations Jono, great to see your rare talent once again to the fore!

Jets celebrate with NRL

By GEOFF MANN

NARROMINE Jets’ president Mick Burns and wife Karen, along with club organisers Sally and Anthony Everett, received a double surprise recently.

“We were awarded the NSWRL Community Club of the Year last month, then last week the NRL named us their national winner,” Sally said.

“It blew us away. Little old Narromine striving to be the best we can be on and off the field and this has been recognised. We are so proud of our town and our club members who know we are just one part of a town that gives generously to its own and all who visit here,” Sally said.

The second surprise came when

four tickets arrived in the mail.

“We were planning to stay in Narromine to support Susie Rae and the Dolly Parton Festival but being such dedicated rugby league fans, we couldn’t pass it up,” Sally smiled with tongue firmly in her cheek.

Another unexpected bonus was when former Canberra Raiders captain and NSW Country Origin leader Alan Tongue arrived in a small bus to take them to Accor Stadium at Homebush. None of the Jets were died-in-thewool Panthers or Eels, although Sally did have a soft spot for Parramatta.

“My dad died from melanoma recently and grand final day was his birthday. He loved the footy and yellow was his favourite col-

our so I was leaning a bit towards Parra.”

By Monday morning the Jets were still trying to come back to earth.

“We have had the best night. I was going for Parra though, but it was great to see Isaah and Charlie Staines win. So many great players including David Gillespie, Steve Calder, the late Bob Weir, Ross Cale and Patrick Smith have grown up in Narromine and to see these two blokes from Dubbo on the big stage was awesome.”

Isaah and Matt have both been named in the Australian World Cup squad to tour Great Britain along with Liam Martin (West Wyalong) and Jack Wighton (Orange). They leave for England next week.
