Emu Plains Artist Susan Oxenham is legally blind, but for the past ten years she has been working on a series of artworks that are going to be part of an exhibition throughout the month of April.

From the 2nd to the 29th of April 2016, Susan’s artworks will be displayed in her exhibition called “Long- sighted at the Library.”

The exhibition will be held at Penrith Library which is located at 601 High Street Penrith.

In 2006, Susan started her fi rst series which contained only three artworks. Now in 2016, exactly 10 years later she has completed ten pieces in the series all which represent Optical Coherence Tomography and strives to display all diff erent eye conditions.

Susan has been an artist her whole life and has continued to perfect her art despite her sight decreasing overtime. She became legally blind in her right eye at the age of 17 while her left eye has deteriorated as tumours have continued to grow.

At the age of 2, Doctors found a tumour in Susan’s eye and while they were not sure what exactly it was, they informed her parents that she may lose her sight. It was then that they bought Susan a blackboard and continuously encouraged her to take part in art. Susan has undergone multiple laser treatments and surgeries in an attempt to save her vision.

However, despite her impaired vision, she continues to perfect her art. All the works that are part of the “Long-sighted at the Library” exhibition are expected to become part of a ‘Travelling Exhibition’.

If walking among colourful quilts displayed in the open sounds good, the Caring Hearts Community Quilters are having their annual fundraising event on April 9-10th at The Arms of Australia Inn Museum, Great Western Highway, Emu Plains from 10am - 2pm.

There will be lots of quilts, a trading table with handmade goods for sale, book stall, Devonshire teas, BBQ, quilt raffl e and live music.

The senior ladies who make up this group of dedicated patchworkers have been stitching their special kind of magic into quilts now for almost 14 years with the knowledge that they are truly doing something they love to do, whilst bringing

joy and comfort to those that receive them. The quilts are given to local hospitals for their palliative care and neo-natal wards, along with Women’s Refuge and Blue Mountains Cancer Support and families that have fallen on hard times.

Traditionally, Quilt Airings were held in spring as a method of keeping quilts fresh. They would be hung on clothes lines and verandahs to fl ap in the breeze on clear sunny days. Today it is a chance for quilters to exhibit their work.

With the demand by this group for many more quilts, they would like to see more patch workers join their group. They have a huge need for quilters, long-arm, that could quilt the occasional quilt for them.

For more information call Margaret on 4735 2058 or 0438 670 012. This is an outside event and will have to be cancelled if raining.Editorial courtesy of Arms of Australia Inn - www.armsofaustraliainn.org.au.

Have you heard the story of the manager who got into trouble with his workers? He was paying his workers diff erent amounts for the same job. But it was when they found out that the trouble really started!

Already you probably feel the injustice of it. We all know people should get a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work. Along with that, we’ve all experienced how quickly one person with the upper hand will rip off another, given half a chance.

But this story was one with a twist. The manager was giving all the workers a fair day’s pay. It’s just that, for those who’d started on the job late in the piece, he was paying them the same amount. What do you think, incredibly unfair? Or extremely generous?

Jesus told this story (Matthew 20:1-16). And he told it because

he knew how strong our sense of justice is. He told it because we have a well developed sense of eff ort and reward. And he told it because he wanted to show us there is a whole other way of seeing ourselves.

Easter is the key. There Jesus off ered a gift we didn’t deserve. To entrust us with what we could never earn. Forgiveness from God. Freedom from guilt. Confi dence about the future.

It’s OK to call out for justice from God. But far better to cry out for his kindness. It turns out we’re the workers who’ve been paid unfairly. We’ve been given far more than we deserve. All it takes is to accept the gift. Incredibly unfair? Or extremely generous?

The Emu Plains Lions Club is looking for members.Lions is the largest and most active service club organisation,

with 1.3 million members in 160 countries.

Some of the benefi ts are;• Fellowship• Good times• Meeting people• Building lasting friendships• Service to the community, charities and those

generally less fortunate• Learning new skills• Leadership and personal developmentSome of the myths of Lions membership are that all they ‘do’

is BBQ’s and it takes a lot of personal commitment and time.John Choma, the Memberships Manager of the Lions

Club of Emu Plains, answered the 2nd myth by commenting ‘Ironically the more members we have, the less each member has to do, but e.g. manning the chocolate wheel at Westfi eld Plaza, averages just 2 hours per month per member.’

As for BBQ’s, President Ian West said, tongue in cheek, ‘We don’t just do BBQ’s, we do GREAT BBQ’s!’

John Choma also further added that it was possible to become a ‘Friend of Lions’, enabling you to get an insight into membership before committing.

If you are interested and have some spare time, with a view to helping others, who may not be as fortunate or need assistance and you also enjoy associating with like-minded people in contributing to achieve positive social outcomes, Lions is for you.

Do You Fit This Shirt + Cap?


The body lay stretched out on the jetty at Sydney Fish Markets, a bloody gash wound to the head, a gaff er hook lying close by. Blood was pooling and poor Joe was dead! So began the Criminal Investigation carried out by Year 10 students at McCarthy Catholic College. Detectives and crime scene analysis teams raced to the jetty, cordoned off the body and surrounding area. Even before the police doctor had ascertained death, detectives were gathering information and scene of the crime specialists began a systematic analysis of the cordoned off area.

McCarthy Catholic College Year 10 students were required to use their powers of deduction and investigative skills to solve ‘what had happened on the jetty’. Students became police investigators and the legal and forensics teams. Students attended master classes that provided information and skills to accurately participate in criminal investigation. Police investigators attended “Integrity of the Scene” workshops to fi nd out which processes were necessary to ensure the safe and uncontaminated collection of evidence to allow for a proper trial. Investigators also learnt about interviewing techniques, care in custody, witness statements, proof of identity, the role of the police in charging a person of interest and the evidence chain of custody.

Forensics team members learnt about fi ngerprinting, photography and sketching the crime scene, wound and weapon analysis, blood splatter and the collection of evidence. The legal team learnt about court proceedings, mock trial questioning, mock trial Opening and Closing Addresses, Defence/Prosecution and ethical considerations in the courtroom. Solicitors from Lamrocks Solicitors shared their ‘real life’ guidance and expertise.

Forensic scientist Maddi Weinert admitted that had the blood been real, ‘I could well have fainted!’ However, ‘ I learnt heaps about blood splatter, taking fi ngerprints and gathering hair samples’. Again ‘Creepy if real!’. ‘It was fascinating and I loved the deductive

part of the investigation, weighing up the value and integrity of evidence’. The forensic team worked collaboratively to problem solve and develop theories; ‘we learnt about valuing each other’s strengths and weaknesses and initiate a fi nal hypothesis’.

Police investigator Andrew Negapatan said ‘Interviewing the witnesses was intriguing because as a school student I am usually asked questions. The role reversal was challenging’. Andrew also had to help place the mannequin in the body bag. “It would have been so sad if it had been a real body but it highlighted the responsible role of police. In our school life is held to be sacred, so murder is a heinous and evil crime’.

Maddi and Andrew agreed the criminal investigation experience was ‘living our learning’. ‘Everyone got involved because we were all needed to contribute to resolve the crime. We all had fun!’. And the Accused? Innocent! Disclaimer.

No mannequin was harmed in the making of this criminal scene. Image Supplied. Left to right: Corey Said, Ella Merchant, Maddison Weinert, Andrew Negapatan (back), Austen Bugeja (front).

PARENTS CORNER

Parent TrapsA “parent trap” is a behaviour that parents do that encourages

their children’s mistaken behaviour. Parents can actually set their children up for failure. Listed below are three “parent traps” to be aware of in your daily interactions with your children.#1 Focusing on the negative

The more attention you pay to negative behaviours the more your child will do of them. Forty years of research tells us that paying attention to children’s negative behaviours encourages them to do more of them. Children are hard-wired for attention. It’s all about survival – look at me, remember to feed me and look after me. What kind of attention (and thus behaviour) would you prefer – positive or negative?

Make a big eff ort to pay more attention to what your children are doing well, for example, playing well, speaking kindly to each other, packing away their things, and putting their clothes in the wash basket.#2 It’s all about the praise

The “good boy/girl/job” type of praise makes kids praise junkies. They love it but it doesn’t tell them what they are doing well. It makes them more dependent on you.

Praise your children by telling them what they are doing well. For example, “I appreciate you putting the clothes in the wash basket, that makes it so much easier for me”, and “that is a clever idea, I can see that you put a lot of thought into fi guring that out”. This is called “Descriptive Praise” and it helps to develop a well-rounded sense of self, and encourage thinking and independence. Remember to make it genuine and sincere.#3 Making children feel bad about themselves will make

them correct their behaviour

Calling kids names, yelling and screaming at them, harsh criticism, and putting them down, creates an internal sense of shame that can lead to mental health problems in adolescence and adulthood. When did you ever do better when someone made you feel bad about yourself?

Make your home a “be kind zone” where nobody is allowed to call others names or put them down. Home should be an emotionally safe place for children and parents.

Stay tuned for more parent traps next month.

Children who Swim are Safer, Smarter + Stronger

As a parent I've always suspected that swimming has helped my children in other areas, however there is now scientifi c evidence to support my assumption. Research conducted by Griffi th University over four years has concluded that children who swim demonstrate more advanced cognitive and physical abilities than other children.

During the project, entitled "Early Years Swimming, Adding Capital to Young Australians", researchers surveyed parents of 7000 children aged fi ve years old and under from Australia, New Zealand and the US. The Australian component included observing more than 120 swimming lessons in 40 swim schools nationwide. Parents reported back on their children's development and the information was weighed against the expected progression of children through established milestones. To overcome inevitable parental bias, a core group of 176 three, four and fi ve-year-old children was involved in a more intensive assessment process using internationally approved testing methods.

The study indicates that swimming children have many advantages when starting school. Lead researcher Professor Robyn Jorgensen said "While we expected the children to show better physical development and perhaps be more confi dent through swimming, the results in literacy and numeracy really shocked us. The children were anywhere from six to 15 months ahead of the normal population when it came to cognitive skills, problem solving in mathematics, counting, language and following instructions." Professor Jorgensen said that as well as achieving physical milestones faster, the swimming children scored signifi cantly better in visual-motor skills such as cutting paper, colouring in and drawing lines and shapes. He added

"On average, these children were eleven months ahead of the normal population in Oral Expression, six months ahead in Mathematics Reasoning and two months ahead in Brief Reading. Most amazing was the diff erence in Story Recall (17 months ahead) and Understanding Directions (20 months ahead)." Not a bad extra from an activity that also promotes health and safety!

Many families and children joined in the fun with jumping castles a Giants Fan Zone and a chance to meet GMAN, Larry the Lion & GWS players.

Event organiser and Club President Sean Hogan said “We were extremely excited to present a Volkswagen Caddy Van (valued at $33,000) to the Ronald McDonald Nepean Family Room. The room provides a supportive and nurturing environment for families of babies being treated in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Nepean Hospital.”

The club purchased the vehicle with money raised from their very successful Sportsman’s Day Lunch held in 2015. McGrath Liverpool Volkswagen and AHG contributed a further $5000 to help make it happen. A special thanks to Kathryn and Ian Garton from McDonalds Garton Group for their support and help throughout the year, "We chose this local charity because of their passion towards the charity" said Sean,

Representatives from the clubs many sponsors also presented all players with their 2016 Guernsey’s on the night.

A special thanks to Fiona Scott MP (Member for Lindsay), Mike Thomas (EO) and Belinda Woolford (Marketing Manager) of Ronald McDonald House Westmead & Ronald McDonald Family Room Nepean, Meagan Preston (Family Room Coordinator, Ronald McDonald Family Room Nepean), Kathryn & Ian Garton (The Garton Group), Dean Connors (AFL NSW & ACT Manager), Bob Robinson (AFL NSW) and past Presidents of EPGP Lions, David Nolan, Greg Corless and John Rix for being a part of this special event.

Spondylolisthesis Pain.What can be Done About it?

Many people come to the clinic with back pain, their scans showing they have a condition called spondylolisthesis. That’s a big word but it simply means, one vertebra has slipped forward compared to the one above or below it. If you followed last month’s article you’ll already know:Every vertebra has two bony arches (one on the left, one on the right), which connect the front of the vertebra to the back half; About 6% of the general population have a break in at least one arch; This break is called a pars defect. Pars defects are more common in athletes playing certain sports, and they occur mostly in the ‘lower back’ (i.e. L4 & L5).

The two bony arches are very important, because they stop the front half of a vertebra (called the vertebral body) from slipping forward. But when a person has a break in both the left and right arches, a vertebra may forward. This is especially so for the lowest 2 lumbar vertebra because they both sit on a large forward incline. Under these circumstances, any extra weight or stress on the spine from sport, heavy work or trauma can result in abnormal stretching of the ligaments and joint capsules that hold the vertebra in place. This may lead to a permanent forward slipping of one or more vertebra, as well as impingement of either the spinal cord or a nerve root exiting form the spinal column causing pain and other symptoms.

Spondylolisthesis can be graded from 1-4 depending on how far forward a vertebra has slipped. The symptoms, often related to degree of slip, may include:Back or buttock pain, pain that runs from the lower back down one or both legs, numbness or weakness in one or both legs, diffi culty walking, leg, back, or buttock pain that gets worse when you bend over or twist, loss of bladder or bowel control, rarely.

When a vertebra has slipped forward only minutely, the bony bridges may heal by themselves, if re-injury is avoided and back muscles elongated. The larger the slip the more likely a person will have symptoms and in severe cases surgical procedures may be required to directly repair of the pars, sometimes accompanied by a fusion procedure (Syrmou 2010) . But even with relatively large slips, releasing muscles locked around the spine can reduce infl ammation & provide greater fl exibility of the torso. Together this reduces the impact of bending and twisting and may lead to a considerable reduction in symptoms, to the point where surgery may not be required. If you have unresolved back pain, why not come talk to us at BHW - see our ad for contact details.

PAWS A WHILE

New Veterinarian!!

We are still growing!! Yay!! We have employed another veterinarian to accommodate the growth of the business.

Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital would like to welcome Dr Jonathan Young to the team. He has six years experience in small animal practice, and has undertaken further education in surgery, diagnostic imaging, dermatology, and feline medicine. He is competent in dental procedures, soft-tissue surgery, and in the long-term care of dogs with Cushing's disease (hyperadrenocorticism) and diabetes.

His current passion is in refi ning his approach to all aspects of feline and canine medicine. He will take the time to tailor the health care for each individual pet and pet-owner.

In his spare time he takes his folks out for lunch and likes to grow vegetables in their backyard. His interest in veterinary science probably started from looking after many critters whilst growing up, including mice, budgerigars, zebra fi nches, ducks, Black Moor goldfi sh, Dwarf rabbits, and house-sitting for his friends' dogs and cats. He hopes one day to have a house with an automatic sensor tap, so that his cat can have fl owing spring-water any time of the day.Dr Theresa Pizzuto is Coming Back off Maternity Leave

Theresa has been on maternity leave for 12 months and will be returning part-time June/July 2016. We look forward to having her back at work.

Leo the Guide Dog Puppy

Camille is a puppy raiser for the Guide Dogs. She has been looking after Leo since October.

The Guide Dogs have organized numerous outings for the puppies, and 6 puppies came to the Off Leash Park at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital for a group training session.

During this training session, the puppies tried on the Guide Dog Harnesses for the fi rst time. They looked so cute!!

Leo will be returned to The Guide Dogs when is about 1 year of age, where he will continue his training and hopefully succeed as a Guide Dog.

For more information: www.guidedogs.com.au.We look forward to meeting you and your pets at Orchard Hills

Veterinary Hospital, and please feel free to pop in anytime and meet the team.

For more information check out our Facebook, website www.orchardhillsvet.com.au or call 02 4736 2027. Guide Dog puppies off leash at Orchard Hills Veterinary Hospital. Image Supplied.

COUNSELLING CORNER

I went to breakfast for International Women's Day at Penrith RSL. Hosted jointly by Women With Altitude and the RSL, it was a lovely community event attended by some amazing men and women celebrating women.

At the end Andrea Turner-Boys (WWA) thanked the RSL and informed us that the charity we'd raised money for was “Homes for Heroes”. I hadn’t heard of it but there are 3000 of our veterans are sleeping rough. I was shocked at this statistic. “Homes for Heroes” were building a facility to house some of these veterans.

ANZAC Day is the 25th of April. Every year we hear reports that nobody knows why we have it, and ask why are we celebrating war? The usual media stuff that isn't important. The story for ANZAC Day could be "Homes for Heroes" or our Australian Defence Force. Do you know that 42 Aussie soldiers gave their lives for our nation in Afghanistan?

I've been watching "Afghanistan, inside Australia’s war" on ABC tv, where soldiers wearing cameras show what they go through. This made me wonder how they return to civilian life. They've seen mates blown apart from IUD's, entering villages not knowing friend or foe.

On coming home, many of them noted that they feel they have to shut down, that they left a part of their self back in Afghanistan. One fellow wanted to go back and collect it, so he could be whole again.

This year let’s not only remember the landing of Gallipoli in 1915 but also commemorate all soldiers who have served and died in all wars, confl icts and peacekeeping missions. Let's remember the contribution and suff ering of all those who have served.

ANTENNA

While Susan has dedicated a lot of her time to her series, in 2006 she also started her Cane Painting, where she attaches tubes of paint to the end of her cane and walks along a canvas leaving several lines to create unique artworks.

Susan described her Cane Paintings by saying “When you walk on the beach you leave your footprints but when you walk on canvas with paint and a cane you leave lines behind you.”

Several of Susan’s Cane Painting are available for purchase.

Susan has given credit to ‘Talking Books’ at Penrith Library for encouraging her and checking in on her which lead to the opportunity for her to have an exhibition at the library and has also thanked Zonta who have off ered to supply all the catering of Afternoon Tea at the exhibition.

For those who would like to attend the exhibition please contact Susan on (02) 4735 5025 for further details and to confi rm attendance.
