Dear Reader,
I’m taking a back seat from my community duties at the
moment to deal with a family health issue so don’t have much
to report.
One of the big things coming up is the opening event of the
Aldinga District Town Square at 10am-3pm on May 28th
which incorporates the Aldinga market. Keep your eye out for further publicity about this event.
The Main South Road duplication group is growing from
strength to strength. Let’s support them and really put some
pressure on our pollies to give us a real go down south.
We’ve got 40 pages again this month.
I hope you enjoy the issue.

PAUL
Dysfunction, consequences and a way out.
Growing up with his mum and grandmother, Paul harboured a desire to explore life. He lived with a sense
of curiosity about his dad until he eventually learned his
father had been convicted of a crime and was serving
time in jail. It would be many years before he saw his father again and things changed for the worse when at 9
years of age his loving grandmother died, and his stern
step-father came on the scene.
To escape the atmosphere at home he joined sports teams,
hung out with friends, and played in music bands. He worked doing plane maintenance with an airline whilst
indulging occasionally with drugs. And this turned out to
be a game changer when, in Amsterdam at age 23, he
overdosed and almost died. That set Paul on a new course, and he began searching for fresh meaning.
Around 24 years of age, Paul chose to read the Bible even though he found it very difficult at first to even open it.
There was to be no easy path or quick conversion as he
set out to find that larger world he longed to discover as a
child. Being drawn to justice issues and looking after the poor in society he continued to travel and seek genuine
relationships to discuss ‘life’ with.
He finally made a commitment to Christ and attended a
church in Melbourne as he came to see that the Christian
faith did bring answers, but also some mystery.
He went on to follow a yearning deep in his heart to help
others unravel their mysteries: climb out of a victim
mentality, defeatism and confusion and find a way forward in life. One of these paths is what Paul calls Soul
Food Café – an informal special space where people can
safely share their story over coffee and learn how they too can help make sense of their lives (see

Green waste and cardboard / paper - Environmental
Protection Authority (EPA) legislation bans all councils state wide from sending these materials to landfill.
Computers and televisions are also be part of this ban.
Therefore these materials can no longer be accepted as part of our hard waste collection.
The collection point is the Southern Waste Resource
Management on Bakewell Road Seaford Rise (the Council dump off South Road N of the bridge).
There is no cost. All you need to do is take your Ewaste
to the appropriate tip and they will direct you to the Ewaste section.
You leave your stuff near two containers and exit the tip
depositing the card they issue you with. This card will take you off their computer.
This can be done any day of the week.
Fluorescent light tubes (this includes Compact Fluorescent
lights now widely being used to replace incandescent globes)
contain mercury.
If disposed of in landfill (through your garbage bin) this can
leach into the soil and water table with disastrous results.
They should be disposed of properly through recycling. Do not put them in your rubbish bin. Collection points are available at
Mitre 10 stores and the Willunga Environment Centre.

INDUSTRIAL HEMP
I don’t make my living as a farmer, but I grew up on one
[dairy, fat lambs and almonds] and I owned a grazing
property on Kangaroo Island, S.A. for ten years. I was a jackeroo and overseer on sheep stations for six years
also. This seemingly irrelevant information is to establish
a bit of credibility with farmers.
Most of my occupation involves travelling around Australia by various forms of transport. I know and meet
a lot of people involved in agriculture, and understand
that the average farming operations only return 4% on their investment. There is plenty of exceptions – those
that are sustainable and doing extremely well [the
minority] and those that are unsustainable and heading downhill from slow decent to out of control.
Most of the small to medium sized country towns you
pass through have increasing numbers of shut down
shops and businesses.
In a country like Australia, this should not be the case.
Some of the readers would be aware of Theodore
Roosevelt’s ‘Hemp act’ of 1937 which was the catalyst for what is arguably the greatest environmental scandal
in modern times. Most people seem to be unaware of
this. I suggest that if you are interested [and you should be] , that you google ‘Industrial Hemp’,
www.textilecomposite.com.au. This will open up an
extraordinary Pandorah’s Box of the continuing scandal
and suppression of the facts by powerful lobbies, in particular the cotton industry, major agribusiness
corporations and chemical conglomerates, to name of
few.
Recently some Victorian farmers and engineers
invented a Hemp decorticator that can separate the fibre,
the hurd, and the seed in the one operation. This is an extraordinary development. It means that 95% of the
hurd and fibre can be recovered, compared to just 15%
previously. Industrial Hemp has over two thousand uses
and can be grown with little water [the more the better for greater yield] and NO herbicides. Up to three crops a
year can be grown on the best land with more water. The
ground is greatly enriched by the waste material after each harvest, and because of the minimal input the
returns are exceptional. Imagine the thousands of
hectares of land in the Riverland and other places lying idle or supporting unsustainable or unprofitable crops.
Uses of industrial Hemp include textiles, clothing,
building material [fibre board, insulation, hempcrete].
Industrial products such as animal bedding, mulch, boiler fuel, chemical absorbent. Paper [printing,
newsprint, packaging, cardboard, netting, canvas,
Coastal Views, May 2017 Page 16
carpeting etc..
Foods derived from Hemp seed is what is holding up the
‘Hemp revolution’. In all other western and developed
nations you can buy food made from hemp seed in supermarkets. Yet you cannot legally do so in Australia
and New Zealand despite the fact that food standards of
Australia and New Zealand [FSANZ] have recommended
COAG meetings that it should be legalized immediately.
That is another scandal.
Until Hemp food is legalized, the industry is crippled. We
have two legs of a three legged stool. There is the fibre, the hurd but the third leg has been denied – the FOOD.
A good Hemp crop produces three tonnes of fibre per
hectare, seven tonnes of hurd and one tonne of grain. The world market is wide open. A growing number of farmers
are becoming aware of the potential of Industrial Hemp ,
the ripple needs to become a tidal wave. This has the
potential to revitalize agriculture in Australia, as well as opening a multitude of manufacturing opportunities. See

MUSICA VIVA AT ALDINGA PRIMARY SCHOOL
Hi all,
Now that we are almost at the end of Term 1 of the first year of our music residency at Aldinga Beach B-7
School, I’m happy to give you a little update about what
has been rolled out. The students did ‘come and try days’ at the end of
last year and the beginning of this year, to identify this
year’s students who would participate in group guitar lessons and percussion ensembles. From those students, 4
groups of 6 students were selected to receive group guitar
lessons and 4 groups of 25 students were selected to
participate in percussion ensembles. These students have been receiving weekly lessons throughout term 1 by
Musica Viva guitar tutor, Mike Bevan and percussion
tutor, Fabian Hevia. The students are working towards a performance at the end of Term 2. Once we have a date, I
will forward you an invitation to attend.
The school has received new guitars and a range of new percussion instruments and for most of the guitar
students, this is the first time they have been allowed to
take an instrument home to practice, so we look forward
to hearing their musicianship develop. We have also delivered a professional development
course to the entire staff – “Introduction to Primary
Classroom Music”. Feedback from the staff about the course was glowing with the Principal, Mel Justice
reporting that staff had a great time and learned an
enormous amount, as the presenter made them feel very
at ease, where they would normally be scared of participating in musical activities. We return twice more
this year to deliver further professional development for
the staff. Plans are now in place for preparatory activities in
the classroom for Musica Viva group “The World
According to James” who will be visiting the school in Term 4. Work will be done on improvisation in the
classroom, in the theme of jazz that the group will bring
to the school. Local multi-instrumentalist and award
winning artist Adam Page will visit the school in Term 3 to work with staff on improvisation and “spontaneous
composition”. This workshop will occur at the school
from3.20 to 4.50 pm on Tuesday 26 September and you would be welcome to attend if you wish.
I will send you an invitation to attend the
performance by “The World According to James” in Term 4, closer to the time. In the meantime, please
click HERE to see information about the group.
I wish you and your families a very happy and safe
Easter. Kind regards,
Emily

As I trudge through the seasons and camp ‘neath the stars above; I think of my home town and the one I love: The meeting will not be joyous but one of sorrow; For they wrote and told me for us there will be no tomorrow: We mads a vow when I returned we would never part; But a war in a distant land broke her aching heart: The tears she cried when knowing she would be left alone; If I didn’t return would be on her very own: But now she’s up in heaven getting lots of tender care; And I have all these memories and a lock of golden hair. (From Mr Bobbles) With Anzac Day just gone I thought this would be an appropriate time to include this one - Ed.

Your Sense & Dollars….
“Block Building Your Home Deposit” by Nani Johnston
The hardest part of buying a place to call your own is saving for the deposit and its upfront costs. It is especially challenging when you are not living free-board at home, but it is not entirely impossible. Think of deposit building like building a lego. The end result is made up of small little blocks. Every little bit counts no matter how small. Block #1 - have a goal - know what you need
I have a client who works part-time at one of the major food chain, earning less than $800/week. She came to me a year ago with some savings and a house price in mind. I worked with her in understanding what she needs and, fourteen months later, she reached her savings goal whilst living at home paying a $100/week board. Overall, it took her four years to save up for her deposit. When I commented that she’d done well, she told me it was because she had a goal to achieve. Block #2 – know your expenditure Once you know what your savings goal is, take a look at your expenditure. We all know we should spend less than what we earn. But do you know how much you actually spend each week? Each month? If you live from one pay check to another, do you know why that is? Are there any luxury items you can cut out? If your expenditure is already high, having a cup of coffee every day is a luxury. You may have to reduce it to just one cup a week. If you want to get somewhere, you will have to make some sacrifices – that is given.
Block #3 – set up regular saving Now that your goal and expenditure are determined, you can work out what you can put aside. Set up an automated regular saving. Lock the money away as soon as you are paid. Putting aside $150/week, earning 2.7% interest, will give you $7,897 in a year. In four years, you’ll have $32,908. Depending on
your income and debt commitment, $30,000 deposit could be sufficient to purchase a house to the value of $500,000. Block #4 – assess, evaluate and reward Making sacrifices does not mean you should live miserably. Set a savings milestone and reward yourself when you get there. Have a flexible plan – always assess and evaluate. Make changes as necessary. Whatever you do, don’t procrastinate. Start today and get closer to your goal.

HE and SHE
I'm Sure you can imagine, Its as simple as can be, The place is Piccadilly, The people He and She! She whispered "will it hurt me?" "Of course not" answered he, "It's a very simple process, You can rely on me". She said "I'm very frightened, I've not had this before, My friend has had it five times, And said it can be sore". It was growing rather painful, Tears formed in her eyes, It was hurting quite a bit now, It must have been a size. "Calm yourself" he whispered, "His face filled with a grin, "Try and open wider, So I can get more in". "It's coming now" he whispered, "I know" she cried in bliss, Feeling it deep within her now, She said "I'm glad I'm having this". And with a final effort, She gave a frightened shout, He gripped it in anguish, And quickly pulled it out. She lay back quite contented, Sighed, and gave a smile, She said "I'm glad I came now, You made it worth my while". Now if you read this carefully, The dentist you will find, It's not what you imagined, It's just your dirty mind!!
GENERATIONS People born before 1946 were called The Silent & Powerful Generation.
People born between 1946 and 1964 are called The Baby Boomers.
People born between 1965 and 1979 are called Generation X.
And people born between 1980 and 2010 are called Generation Y.
Why do we call the last group Generation Y?
Y should I get a job? Y should I leave home and find my own place? Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours?
Y should I clean my room? Y should I wash and iron my own clothes?
Y should I buy any food? But a cartoonist explained it very eloquently…

Recently, when I went to McDonald's I saw on the menu
that you could have an order of 6, 9 or 12 Chicken McNuggets.
I asked for a half dozen nuggets.
'We don't have half dozen nuggets,' said the teenager at the counter.
'You don't?' I replied.
'We only have six, nine, or twelve,' was the reply.
'So I can't order a half dozen nuggets, but I can order six?' 'That's right.'
So I shook my head and ordered six McNuggets
(Unbelievable but sadly true...) (Must have been the same one I asked for sweetener and
she said they didn't have any, only Splenda and Sugar.)
I was checking out at the local Wal-Mart with just a few items and the lady behind me put her things on the belt
close to mine. I picked up one of those 'dividers' that they
keep by the cash register and placed it between our things so they wouldn't get mixed. After the girl had scanned all
of my items, she picked up the 'divider', looking it all
over for the bar code so she could scan it. Not finding the bar code, she said to me, 'Do you know
how much this is?'
I said to her 'I've changed my mind; I don't think I'll buy
that today.' She said 'OK,' and I paid her for the things and left.
She had no clue to what had just happened.
A mother calls 911 very worried asking the dispatcher if
she needs to take her kid to the emergency room, the kid
had eaten ants. The dispatcher tells her to give the kid some Benadryl and he should be fine, the mother says, 'I
just gave him some ant killer......'
Dispatcher: 'Rush him in to emergency!'
Life is tough. It's even tougher if you're stupid! Someone had to remind me, so I'm reminding you too.
Don't laugh....it is all true…

Her neighbour asks, "What is it supposed to be when it's finished?" The little silver haired lady says, "According to the picture on the box, it's a rooster." Her neighbour decides to go over and help with the puzzle. She lets him in and shows him where she has the puzzle spread all over the table. He studies the pieces for a moment, then looks at the box, then turns to her and says, "First of all, no matter what we do, we're not going to be able to assemble these pieces into anything resembling a rooster." He takes her hand and says, "Secondly, I want you to relax. Let's have a nice cup of tea, and then," he said with a deep sigh ............ "Let's put all the Corn Flakes back in the box." A little boy got on the bus, sat next to a man reading a book, and noticed he had his collar on backwards. The little boy asked why he wore his collar backwards. The man, who was a priest, said, " I am a Father . ." The little boy replied, "My Daddy doesn't wear his collar like that." The priest looked up from his book and answered, "I am the Father of many". The boy said, "My Dad has 4 boys, 4 girls and two grandchildren and he doesn't wear his collar that way!" The priest, getting impatient, said . "I am the Father of hundreds", and went back to reading his book. The little boy sat quietly thinking for a while, then leaned over and said, "Maybe you should wear a condom, and put your pants on backwards instead of your collar."
Cooking tip. Some forty years ago when I was working on the flood protective banks at Meningie, during the 1956 River Murray Flood, I picked up a cooking tip from one of my work mates and which I still use today. I like eggs and he often cooked his in yesterday's left over gravy, so I copied his "recipe''. To this day I still cook my eggs for breakfast in this manner. I place the eggs with the gravy on toast and have no hesitation in recommending this method to any person who has not had this experience. Thanks Martin. - Ed
