ALDINGA BAY RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION

Dear Reader,

The year has started at a pace.

The ‘On The Run’ complex is completed and apparently

doing a roaring trade.

Transport SA have released their plans for the Malpas Road to Port Road section of South Road.

ABRA responded to Council’s Road Network Plan, pointing

out the failure to follow their own guidelines. Using Aldinga Beach and Quinliven Roads as examples, both

are categorised as secondary arterial roads on traffic use

counts, but neither have been built to sustain the 60 - 80 kph recommended for this class of roads in urban areas. Traffic

flow restrictions built in to the design of both these roads

were pointed out in detail in our submission.

We also recommended that this opportunity be taken up to build future footpaths away from the kerb in local streets, as

it is in all other categories of road, by adding that to the local

streets recommendations. That way driveway inverts are less likely to create the BMX track conditions some of our

footpaths have and they will not be blocked off for 1/7 of the

week by multiple wheelie-bins.

Beside Aldinga On Display, probably in March this year, a

‘Deadly Fun Run’ programme is being planned.

This is part of the Indigenous Marathon Project. It aims at

getting people, both indigenous and non indigenous, from couch sitters to walkers or joggers participating in community

events through a serious of training programmes and

opportunities. The local events (two of which will probably be held) will

offer various distance to be run/walked and will finish up at a

family friendly community fair type atmosphere. Representatives from this event will be eligible to participate

in the annual Marathon at Uluru.

The local film festival to be held early this month has been

deemed a big success with a pleasing number of entries and quality of films entered according to our reporter.

A speaker from SAPOL will be there to give us an update on the current situation with drugs in the

community with particular emphasis on ICE.

By the time you are reading this the ABRA committee members will be recovering from running the Annual

Australia Day Breakfast again this year.

We are running thin on volunteers this year and would like

to acknowledge our appreciation to Chris Picton MP for not only attending but assisting us with the physical setting

up in the morning before the event.

One of our committee members has moved to Victoria with her husband and we were running on a bare minimum prior

to that so we desperately need at least two more committee

members if ABRA is to continue.

Don’t miss the February meeting we’ll bring you the

‘DOPE’ on drugs. (See notice below.)

I hope you enjoy the issue. Kevin Hutton - President / Editor

YELLOWDOG AUSTRALIA

The YELLOW BANDANA/RIBBON/CAPE has an

interesting history. It's the brainchild of Terry Ryan who

established this signal in her Legacy camps and classes. It was then introduced into Australian Dog clubs in early

2000 by Pat Robards after asking Terry if she could

borrow her idea for her shy dog Bo.

In Spring 2012, a friend of Eva Oliversson, Dog

behaviourist in Norway, Mimmi Engh, read about the use

of a yellow BANDANA/RIBBON/CAPE on dogs so

wrote to Dog clubs in Australia who used them at their courses for some years with sensitive dogs.

Thus in June 27 2012 Eva Oliversson the originator and

founder launched their program ... the Swedish International Gulahund" Yellowdog.

Do you know what a yellow bandana/cape or ribbon on a

dog or dog's leash means? You as a dog owner need to know how it is supposed to be used and about its purpose

before using these signs,

IT MEANS THAT THIS DOG NEEDS SPACE. Just like an amber traffic light, a yellow ribbon is a signal to

proceed with caution.

It's to help people, especially children to easily identify

that the dog needs to be approached slowly and that any interactions should be discussed with the dog's

handler before attempted to pat the animal.

The yellow bandana/ribbon/cape is not necessarily a signal that the dog is aggressive. There are several

reasons why a dog may well use a yellow bandana/cape

or ribbon.

It could be:

The dog has health issues

The dog is in training

The dog is being rehabilitated/learning to socialize

The dog is scared or reactive around other dogs

There are LOTS of reasons why some dogs need some more space!

They may be ill, hurt or may be just old.

They may have a new family or

The dog becomes over excited

A Little Poem For Seniors, so true it hurts!

Another year has passed

And we're all a little older.

Last summer felt hotter ... And winter seems much colder.

There was a time not long ago When life was quite a blast.

Now I fully understand

About 'Living in the Past'

We used to go to weddings,

Football games and lunches..

Now we go to funeral homes And after-funeral brunches.

We used to go out dining, And couldn't get our fill.

Now we ask for doggie bags,

Come home and take a pill.

We used to often travel

To places near and far.

Now we get sore asses From riding in the car.

We used to go to nightclubs And drink a little booze.

Now we stay home at night

And watch the evening news.

That, my friend is how life is,

And now my tale is told.

So, enjoy each day and live it up... Before you're too damned old!

Alcohol Logic "When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we

fall asleep.

When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we

commit no sin, we go to heaven. So, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!"

d. This is an unusual paragraph. I'm curious as to just how quickly You can find out what is so unusual about it. It

looks so ordinary and plain that you would think nothing

was wrong with it. In fact, nothing Is wrong with it! It is

highly unusual though. Study it and think about it, but you still may not find anything odd. But if you work at it a bit,

you might find out. Try to do so without any coaching!

Answers:

a. The woman was a photographer. She shot a picture of her husband, Developed it, and hung it up to dry (shot; held

under water; and

Hung).

b. Charcoal, as it is used in barbecuing.

c. Sure you can name three consecutive days, yesterday, today, and tomorrow!

d. The letter "e" which is the most common letter used in the English Language, does not appear even once in the

paragraph.

A bit of trivia, just in case you didn’t already know.

There is an old Pub in Marble Arch, London , which used to have a gallows adjacent to it.

Prisoners were taken to the gallows (after a fair trial

of course) to be hanged. The horse-drawn dray, carting the prisoner, was

accompanied by an armed guard, who would stop outside

the pub and ask the prisoner if he would like ''ONE LAST DRINK''.

If he said YES, it was referred to as ONE FOR THE

ROAD.

If he declined, that prisoner was ON THE WAGON.

Riddles A. A woman shoots her husband. Then she holds him

under water for over 5 minutes. Finally, she hangs him. But 5 minutes later they both go

Out together and enjoy a wonderful dinner together. How

can this be?

b. What is black when you buy it, red when you use it,

and gray when You throw it away ?

c. Can you name three consecutive days without using the

words Wednesday, Friday, or Sunday?

CHERIE

Can look at the funny side (now)

They say if you haven't lost your sense of humour you haven't lost anything.

Take the normal dysfunctional family life, throw in family divorces, numerous early deaths, serious abuse, a

family suicide and poor parental role modelling (to say

the least) - and you can end up with trauma, complex

grief, depression, and eventually, chronic fatigue. Then add to that a physical misdiagnosis (flu) that turned out to

be a critical case of abdominal abscess-peritonitis - from

an appendix the size of a golf ball - and you would wonder, where's the hope?

On her hospital bed, at the end of her tether, Cherie had some very weird experiences (not associated with any

medication) and blind panic froze her. A male nurse came

to her aid. He suggested she might be under a spiritual attack and he proceeded to share from his heart.

Cherie had longed for a sense of purpose - to be a part of

it - not to feel so isolated, vulnerable and alone. Life had to mean something. "Surely we are put here to do some-

thing", she reasoned. And the troubles had to stop!

"The nurse began to talk about the love of God, how

much He loved me and how Christ died for me." "Do you

want to ask Him into your life?" "I did, and felt so different. My life was turned totally around."

The very deep pain and hurts from her past were gradually dealt with, and a new light dawned which has

led to fulfillment and satisfaction in helping others.

Eight years as a primary school chaplain has been a

welcome outlet, for the great love in her heart for people

and her desire to help others, in their personal struggles.

Internet Safety and Scammers At Compute Your World Morphett Vale we are still see-ing at least one person per week being targeted by scam-

mers pretending to be “Technicians” calling resi-

dents. Once you give 3rd party access to your computer

which you may not know you are doing at the time, these people install programs on your computer that monitor

every move and keystroke you do on your computer

stealing your personal details.

They will start the phone call by saying they are either

from Microsoft, Telstra, or other major companies or tell-

ing you your Computer is sending out messages and they are calling to help you fix the issue.

NO Computer Technician will EVER call you to

warn you about your computer sending out messages or viruses. We strongly suggest you take the following

steps to protect yourself.

Be alert to the fact that scams exist. When dealing with

uninvited contacts from people or businesses, whether it's over the phone, by mail, email, in person or on a social

networking site, always consider the possibility that the

approach may be a scam. Remember, if it looks too good to be true, it probably is.

Do not open suspicious texts, pop-up windows or

emails – delete them: If unsure, verify the identity of the contact through an independent source such as a phone

book or online search. Don't use the contact details pro-

vided in the message sent to you.

Hang up on phone callers offering assistance to fix any

computer issues. They will call up pretending to be any-

one or tell you your computer is sending out messages.

Beware of any requests for your details or money. Never send money or give credit card details,

online account details or copies of personal documents to

anyone you don’t know or trust. Don't agree to transfer money or goods for someone else: money laundering is a

criminal offence.

If unsure, hang up on the caller. If you have an account with the company in question, call the company back to

make sure you are 100% speaking to the company or call

your local Computer Technician for advice.

The ONLY time you should give a Technician Remote

Access to your computer is when you are the one calling

your local Computer Technician for help or assistance.

If you believe you have been scammed, or infected. Dis-connect your computer from the Internet. Call your local

Computer Technician for further advice.

'Yes or no,' she replied.

Only in Britain – Extracts from letters written by council tenants: (I was so tempted to add some comments, but decided to print these as received. One wonders what services this council offers.

Literacy, Numeracy, Home Economics and Sex Education classes sound like they could be useful here however - Ed.)

It’s the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow.

I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off.

I wish to complain that my father twisted his ankle very badly when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage. Their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence.

I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other day that blew them

off. My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand?

I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall.

Will you please send someone to mend the garden path. My wife tripped and fell on it yesterday and now she is

pregnant. I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen.

Talking Health with Kelly Harding ND

Is it not better to prevent yourself from getting sick by living a life of wellness than to get sick and then try to get better? Your goal should be wellness!

Living a life of wellness improves health, energy and wellbeing, whilst reducing the risk of developing chronic diseases. Wellness promotes positive health which in turn promotes healthy mind, body and spirit.

One of the most important factors in wellness is laughter. It has been credited with: Exercising and relaxing muscles, improving respiration, stimulating circulation, increasing production of pain killing endorphins, decreasing the production of stress related hormones and enhancing immunity. Also humour induces positive emotions that have beneficial effects in the absence of laughter.

Remember to take time out to relax, as it is vital to wellness. Activities such as Yoga, meditation, reading, spending time with family and friends or even a walk on our wonderful southern beaches will improve the levels of chemicals in your brain that make you feel happy.

Diet and lifestyle are also extremely important for long term wellness. “We are what we consistently eat”. So we should follow the 7 steps to healthy eating. They are: Include protein rich foods in each meal or snack. Enjoy a minimum of three cups of fresh vegetables daily. Enjoy a minimum of 2 pieces or one cup of fresh fruit daily, Limit starchy carbohydrates to two small serves daily, Include nuts, seeds and healthy oils in your diet. Drink a minimum of eight glasses of water daily and enjoy a freedom meal once a week.

Your goal of wellness can be achieved by combining a wellness diet with regular exercise, relaxation, fun, and key nutritional supplementation. If you would like to improve your energy, health and wellbeing please come in and see us today. Our trained Naturopath can offer guidance in living that promotes optimal health long-term. Our aim is your wellbeing, improvement and self-understanding.

Please come in and see us today for your wellness prescription. Phone for an appointment on 08 8556 5945, Mon-Thurs. We look forward to hearing from you.

INTERESTING FACTS. (Veracity of these has not been checked - Ed.)

If you stop getting thirsty, you need to drink more water.

When a human body is dehydrated, its thirst mechanism

shuts off.

Each year 2,000,000 smokers either quit smoking or die

of tobacco-related diseases.

Drinking water after eating reduces the acid in your mouth by 61 percent.

The tooth is the only part of the human body that cannot

heal itself.

Intelligent people have more zinc and copper in their hair.

The Swine Flu vaccine in 1976 caused more death and illness than the disease it was intended to prevent.

The World is Mine Today, upon a bus, I saw a very beautiful woman,

And wished I were as beautiful.

When suddenly she rose to leave,

I saw her hobble down the aisle. She had one leg and wore a crutch.

But as she passed, she passed a smile.

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine. I have two legs; the world is mine.

I stopped to buy some candy,

The lad who sold it had such charm, I talked with him, he seemed so glad,

If I were late, it'd do no harm.

And as I left, he said to me, "I thank you, you've been so kind.

It's nice to talk with folks like you.

You see," he said, "I'm blind." Oh, God, forgive me when I whine.

I have two eyes; the world is mine.

Later while walking down the street, I saw a child I knew.

He stood and watched the others play,

but he did not know what to do. I stopped a moment and then I said,

"Why don't you join them dear?"

He looked ahead without a word, I forgot, he couldn't hear.

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine,

I have two ears; the world is mine.

With feet to take me where I'd go,

With eyes to see the sunset's glow,

With ears to hear what I'd know. With loving family & friends to enjoy life

Oh, God, forgive me when I whine,

I've been blessed indeed, the world is mine.

To Whom Does The Land Of Israel Belong?

An Israeli with a sense of humour at the United Nations

set the record straight.

An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made the

world community smile.

A representative from Israel began:

Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about Moses: When he struck the rock and it brought

forth water, he thought, "What a good opportunity to have

a bath!" Moses removed his clothes, put them aside on the rock

and entered the water. When he got out and wanted to

dress, his clothes had vanished.

A Palestinian had stolen them!

The Palestinian representative at the UN jumped up

furiously and shouted, ‘What are you talking about? The

Palestinians weren't there then.’

The Israeli representative smiled and said, "And now that

we have made that clear, I will begin my speech."

Really? Down on Lake Isabella , located in the high desert,

an hour east of Bakersfield, CA, some folks, new to boating, were having a problem. No matter how hard they

tried, they couldn't get their brand new 22 foot boat,

going.

It was very sluggish in almost every manoeuvre, no matter how much power they applied. After about an hour

of trying to make it go, they putted into a nearby marina,

thinking someone there may be able to tell them what was wrong.

A thorough topside check revealed everything in

perfect working condition The engine ran fine, the out-

drive went up and down, and the propeller was the correct size and pitch. So, one of the marina guys jumped in the

water to check underneath. He came up choking on water,

he was laughing so hard. NOW REMEMBER...THIS IS TRUE.

Under the boat, still strapped securely in place, was

the trailer!

Thoughtful seat placements on the new Esplanade path.

The Editor,

After the Rush

Driving back through the city on Christmas Night was

almost spooky. This was the same place that literally had shopped-around

-the-clock twenty four hours ago.

The crowds who had found the time and the cash (or

credit) to respond to the urging of the press, radio and TV and probably the pressure of family and friends, had

jammed the streets, stores, pubs & cafes until starry- eyed

and exhausted, they headed home in the approaching dawn. Madness really given the scarcity of frankincense

and myrrh.

So this night, after the family gatherings, a few people

thread their way through streets devoid of shoppers, store windows darkened, cafes shuttered, car parks empty.

Only an occasional bus, rarely a passenger to be seen,

grumbles its way along its allotted route, the drivers, like those in the scatter of cars just looking forward to being

home.

Cities can be lonely places.

Aldinga Beach CFS

SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S

COUNTRY FIRE SERVICE. A brief history.

1847 SA Government Introduced an Act to regulate the burning of crops and stubble (Act No. 19) This made it an offence to endanger property by negligent burning off.

– penalty 20 pounds.

1913 The new Bush Fire Act gave councils authority to appoint Fire Control Officers (FCOs). In 1916 after a public meeting at Wirrabara called by Mounted Constable Kite, the District Council of Port Germein ap-pointed the state’s first FCO.

1939. An Emergency Fire Service was founded in 1939 as an auxiliary civil defence unit to support SAFB in air raids, with 1200 men and women

volunteering. It developed after the war through the SA Fire Brigade & Police Dept. into a volunteer country fire service. Redundant trailer pumps and other equipment after the war were distributed to district councils to form volunteer bushfire and township brigades.

1947 Mr. F.L. Kerr from SAFB was assigned to the Police Department to organise an effective fire service in SA outer Metro and Country re-

gions as Director of The SA EFS. Fred Kerr toured the state for 2 months then wanted to go back to the SAFB saying a country fire service was an impossible task. We can understand his feelings when we consider SA has an area of 984,381 sq. km. Of this 130,000 sq km develops potentially disastrous fire hazard con-ditions every summer. A further 380, 000 sq km is subject to serious fires every 10 - 20 sea-

sons. The Government at the time was insistent however and the EFS was established and organised.

1959 After “Black Sunday” 1955 a Bushfire Research Committee was set up. In 1960, 4 field staff were appointed. In 1963 the Committee ap-pointed a publicity sub-committee to disseminate information and advice on land management practices that would assist in protecting properties against bushfire.

1977 In 1977 The Country Fires Act and Regulations of 1976 were pro-claimed and the organization became known as the SA Country Fire Service (CFS). It was under the administration of the CFS Board.

1978 CFS Headquarters at Keswick was built and opened 22nd August.

1989 In 1989 The S A Country Fires Act and Regulations were revised and reproclaimed and the CFS Board was set up as the Governing Body.

Today the CFS is the largest uniform service in SA with the largest

radio network in the Southern hemisphere.
