A troupe of Sydney comics, led by Glenmore Park resident Rob Andrews, will descend on Penrith RSL this July to raise money for Soldier On. Penrith is the sixth and last stop in the Comedy Tour to Tooleybuc, after Goulburn, Wagga, Albury, Bendigo and Tooleybuc.

Rob Andrews stated that “comedy is a good fi t to highlight the work Soldier On does within our defence community. Often our soldiers return home with mental health issues. We hope to raise awareness and cash while giving everyone a laugh and a good time.”

Soldier On is dedicated to supporting Australian veterans of war with their physical and mental health needs. The charity provides a range of specialised services that help our returned soldiers to overcome depression and PTSD.

“This area has a big heart which is why I love living here,” Rob Andrews said, “I’d love to see the show sell out so that we can raise as much money for Soldier On as we can.”

FAITH – GLENMORE PARK ANGLICAN CHURCH

Article Written + Submitted by: Rev John Lavender P: 4733 1635 A: Cnr William Howell Dr + Pritchard Pl, Glenmore Park W: www.glenmoreparkanglican.com.au Service Times: Sundays @ 8.30 and 10.15am, 5 + 7pm. Plus activities for adults + young people right throughout the week.

Take Another Look at ChurchDeep down most people know they really

should get along to Church a bit more. While many people are aware of this, what often stops them is a fear of the unknown.

Either because they haven’t been for a while or they haven’t been at all, there is a fear

about what Church might be like. Some people think Church is a strange, irrelevant place or they might be worried they will stand out or they won’t know what to do or that what happens won’t make sense.

At Glenmore Park Anglican Church, we fi rmly believe that what God has to say to us through the Bible is relevant to every part of our life and relevant to every person, regardless of age, and regardless of whether you’re male or female, old or young, so we work hard to make people feel welcome.

We often ask people who come to our Church, “Why do you stay?”

The most frequent answer they give is because they fi nd the people are friendly, they can understand what is going on and they fi nd what we do is helpful to their life.

When people understand that Church is about a group of people encouraging and supporting each other in life, to know and understand how good God is, and that it is not about rules and regulations, and that it can even be enjoyable and relaxing, it makes such a diff erence!

One of the great things we fi nd about the people who come to our Church is that many of them have never been to a Church before and although they might be nervous when they start out, after a few weeks of getting to know us and seeing what we are on about, these people have said that Church is the highlight of their week!

Each week we want to help people discover who Jesus is and why he is still such a signifi cant and fascinating person. Why not take the plunge and join us? We’d love to meet you!

Based on the famous novel by Louisa May Alcott. Adapted to the stage by Jenny Tibbitts and Directed by Linda Holland.

Little Women, the much loved story by Louisa May Alcott, follows the lives of the March sisters, Jo, Meg, Beth and Amy as they go from childhood to womanhood.

The years are fi lled with the hardships of poverty, the promise of love, the sadness of loss and hope for a brighter future.

The March family is living in genteel poverty after Mr March lost their money. Meg and Jo March, the elder sisters, both work outside the home for money to support the family. Meg teaches children of a nearby family, while Jo aids her grand-aunt March, a wealthy widow whose strength is failing. Beth helps around the house, and Amy attends school.

Their lives are touched and changed throughout the years by Laurie and his grandfather (the March’s neighbors), Aunt March, John Brooke (the shy tutor of Laurie) and Professor Bhaer (a German expatriate who encourages Jo with her writing).

Politicians must advocate what is popular to be elected. But we should look for leadership which also raises discussion about unpopular issues impacting upon the welfare of our souls.

There are many political issues to discuss, but let me illustrate with a few obvious examples. First: The correlation between the fast-paced,

stressful western lifestyle and mental illness. When the overriding focus is on earning money to buy things our souls are at risk because we can’t buy real love, happiness or peace. I see it visiting people in the hospital mental health unit, and with ordinary families under the pump. The pace, stress, traffi c, the fi nancial and time pressures on marriages, are all too much. But the priority continues to be about economic development – it’s the popular vote. We all want jobs, but if the price of frenetic development and the pace of life is (as the statistics show) that increasing numbers of us and our kids are struggling to cope mentally, are we really progressing as a society? Oscar Wilde said, “When the gods wish to punish us they answer our prayers.” We need leaders who see past the popular vote to truly fi ght for our future welfare.

Second: In Los Angeles throughout the 1900s the public voted down proposals for public transport systems despite traffi c congestion. Companies selling motor cars and rubber helped prioritise freeways over railways. By summer 1993 when I lived in LA you couldn’t see mountains 2 kilometres away due to smog! The smog caused health problems. Our leaders should have vision for our population growth beyond more freeways and crammed housing.

Third: Making childcare more aff ordable is one thing, but a childcare centre manager I know left work when she had her own child because she recognised being apart from him for days on end was not good.

Jesus taught that happiness and peace fl ow from what happens inside us.

This article is not about monorails, but the impact of political decisions on the welfare of our souls. Food for thought, living well, and voting. (www.paulmarshall.org).

Go well, Paul

Local Accountant and founder of CFO@CALL , Zoltan Szentirmay is proud to share his experience working in the corporate sector and the edge he brings to his clients.

He says, “I founded my business on the belief that many businesses are under serviced when it comes to commercial and fi nancial support. You see small businesses rarely have the fi nancial means to employ a full time CFO (Chief Financial Offi cer) instead end up with the support of bookkeepers, tax accountants and banks. The advice that is given is often generic, technical and transactional in nature”.

Early in his career, after several years in what he called ‘backwards’ looking accounting, which no longer excited him, Zoltan focused on commerce where it was evident to him that accountants were diff erent. His became a forward thinking proactive focus that improved the business performance through better management of fi nances and systems, focusing on long term viability and growth of these organisations.

During this period of commercial accounting focus he worked with some of the biggest Australian brands professionally, brands like; Telstra, Pfi zer, Salmat, Tyco, Foseco, Brinks, ADI, Stanilite, Philips, BT Australasia, Pierlite, The Hannan Group , ASIC, UWS, O’Brien Glass, Uniting Care Ageing (Uniting), HCF, DADHC.

It was here, he said he really understood the saying, “if you fail to plan you plan to fail’. He says, “There is no reason why small business can’t follow this approach”. He also warns, “Small business that adopts a, ‘fl y by the seat of your pants’ method, are more likely to end up an unwanted failed business statistic”.

Zoltan can be contacted on 1300 854 480 or [email protected]. CFO@CALL off ers a fl exible service scaled to your business’s size and budget. He will come to you, share and help implement his big business experience in your business from the ground up.

BIG Business Experience, for Your Small Business

"

I can attest not only to his skill as a project manager but also to his ability to manage fi nance teams and all areas within the fi nance department. His strengths are many, but in my view , it his ability to be both a strategic manager dealing at board level but at the same time someone who is able to get into the fi ne detail when required to solve complex issues particularly around systems and implementations that sets him apart.

PARENTS CORNER

This month, we continue the series on ‘Parent Traps’ that we started in April.Escalation Traps – Child Escalation

Children can learn that to get what they want, they escalate their behaviour. They do more of everything - whinge, nag, cry, scream, shout. Anything to get what they want.

Why do they do this? They do it because it works for them.The parent gets tired or overwhelmed, and just gives in. What does the child learn from this?To get what I want I keep pushing until I get what I want.

Escalation Traps – Parent Escalation

A parent asks a child to do something. The child doesn’t move. The parent asks again. And again. And again. After several requests the parent gets frustrated and starts to yell.

When the parent is angry, screaming, counting, or making threats, the child decides that it is time to do as the parent asks.

What does the child learn from this?My parent is only serious about the request when she is yelling.

This is why parents say “my child never listens to me”. Do these escalation traps happen at your place? Sometimes

the child and parent escalate together and it’s a screaming match and a fi ght over something simple.What Is The Remedy?

Make a clear, calm request. Make sure you have your child’s attention by saying his name, getting eye contact, touching him on the shoulder. Tell him what to do rather than what not to do. And make it a request, not a question. If the child complies, give him descriptive praise “thank you for doing as I ask”. If your child does not comply after two clear, calm requests, calmly give him a consequence. The consequence doesn’t need to be harsh, you just need to let your child know that you mean what you say.Struggling?

Glenmore Park Town Centre Redevelopment Commences

“Council offi cers will also continue to work closely with Village Fair to minimise the impact to residents during the construction phase and once the new building is operational,” she said.

Mr Rick Abrahams, Director of Village Fair Pty Ltd, thanked Council for their support in delivering their vision for the new building.

“A project like this would never come to fruition without working closely with the team at Penrith Council,” he said.

“We are looking forward to commencing construction and completing our vision for Glenmore Park Town Centre and the Glenmore Park community.”

Upon completion, the Glenmore Park and greater Penrith community will have greater shopping choice with Coles, Aldi and Woolworths, a gym, over 60 specialty tenants and over 750 car spaces including undercover.

The new building is expected to open late 2017.

Photography Competition Winners Visit NSW Parliament House

Member for Mulgoa Tanya Davies has congratulated Mrs Rebeka Vianello and Miss Katherine Wong, the winner and youth winner, respectively, of the Mulgoa Electorate photography competition.

Local resident Mrs Rebeka Vianello’s winning photograph depicts a stunning sunset in the Mulgoa Valley.

Miss Katherine Wong also lives locally and her stunning black and white photo is of nearby Luddenham.

“I was thrilled to welcome Mrs Vianello and Miss Wong to Parliament House for lunch and a tour. It was a pleasure to thank them for their beautiful entries and acknowledge them personally,” said Tanya Davies.

Council has welcomed the State and Federal Government’s commitment of $100m to widen Mulgoa Road to six lanes between the M4 and Blaikie Road.

Council has been pushing for better movement across the city, lobbying hard to see the 6km stretch of Mulgoa-Castlereagh Road between Glenmore Park and Andrews Road widened to three lanes each way.

Penrith Mayor Karen McKeown said Council’s representations saw $5 million allocated for design and assessment in 2015.

“No doubt this confi rmed what we all already knew – it can take a ridiculous amount of time to get across our City on Mulgoa Road and it’s time to get on with fi xing it.”

“It recently took me 20 minutes to travel less than a kilometre on Mulgoa Road – this is not unique or unusual and I hear from residents all the time about the time it can take to get into Penrith’s City Centre or off the M4, from Glenmore Park to the station,” Cr McKeown said.

The Federal and State Government announced $80 million and $20 million respectively to Stage 1 of the widening. This is in addition to $70m of joint funding already committed to Castlereagh Road/Jane Street/High Street intersection upgrade. Geotechnical investigations are currently underway to prepare for this work.

Stage 2 will see works occur from the M4 to Glenmore Parkway, Stage 3 from Coreen Avenue to Museum Drive and Stage 4 to the Andrews Road interchange.

Penrith Council had listed the widening of Mulgoa-Castlereagh Road as one of its top 6 advocacy priorities for 2016.

“It was also highlighted as an example of how infrastructure hasn’t kept up with population growth in the national Fund our Future campaign which makes the case for a dedicated infrastructure fund for growth Cities like ours,” Cr McKeown said.

“Five million Australians – and counting – in fast-growing suburbs on the outskirts of our capital cities are confronted daily with congested roads and insuffi cient public transport and Australia’s fastest growing councils have united to make the case for a more strategic approach to infrastructure funding.”

Parents Should Avoid Comments on Daughters Weight

New research suggests parents should not discuss weight with a daughter, even if she is at a healthy weight.

Investigators from the Cornell Food & Brand Lab found that the less a parent comments on weight to a daughter, the less likely she is to be dissatisfi ed with her weight as an adult. The fi ndings show that women who recall their parents commenting on their weight are more prone to being overweight and are less satisfi ed with their weight as adults.

“Commenting on a woman’s weight is never a good idea, even when they are young girls,” says lead author Brian Wansink, Ph.D., and author of “Slim by Design: Mindless Eating Solutions for Everyday Life.”

The research fi ndings appear in the journal Eating & Weight Disorders.In the study, 501 women between 20 and 35 years old were surveyed about their

body image and asked to recall how frequently their parent(s) commented about their weight.

Those with a healthy BMI were 27 percent less likely to recall their parents commenting on their weight and 28 percent less likely to recall parents commenting on eating too much compared to women whose BMI indicated they were overweight.

Importantly, both overweight and healthy weight women who did recall their parents commenting on their weight as youths were less satisfi ed with their weight as adults.

Researchers believe this indicates that weight related comments can be damaging to body image regardless of weight. These fi ndings suggest that commenting about girls’ weight can have a negative impact later in life.

“If you’re worried about your child’s weight, avoid criticizing them or restricting food. Instead, nudge healthy choices and behaviours by giving them freedom to choose for themselves and by making the healthier choices more appealing and convenient,” Wansink said.

“After all, it’s the choices that children make for themselves that will lead to lifelong habits.” www.psychcentral.com

“Knott” the Sitters Club

Is a family organisation that sits kids in their own homes. It makes an evening out less expensive for families if they don’t have to pay a

sitter in money, only in hours. We have been running for over 30 years. The girls of the group also go out occasionally for a movie or coff ee.

for your Assessment Session!

Valued at $55Andreas KleinNutritionist &

Remedial TherapistBSc, Adv Dip Nut Med, DRM

I’ve personally developed this technique after 16yrs experience:

“After years of severe back pain I’m now enjoying golf, fully pain free and even started brick-laying again!” – John Hasler, Glenmore Park

“I’d given up really - I’d tried so many things. In just a couple of sessions the pain and muscle spasms had gone. I recommend your

work to anyone.” – Craig Gibson, Richmond

Work & play like you used to after just a few sessions!

It works well for shoulders & knees too.

HEALTH MATTERS

POLICE MEDIA

Low ‘Bone Density’ – Are Drugs Really the Answer? Many patients attend the clinic with low bone density -

osteopenia or osteoporosis. They are commonly prescribed bisphosphonate drugs by their GP to increase bone density & reduce fracture risk. These drugs do increase bone density, but astoundingly also increase the risks for:

1. Certain thigh bone fractures – bones become more dense but also more brittle,

2. Gastrointestinal problems such as indigestion & heartburn, nausea/vomiting, and chest pain. These side eff ects cause up to 20% of patients to discontinue treatment

3. Severe, sometimes incapacitating bone, joint, and/or muscle pain

4. Bisphosphonate-related decay of the jaw bone (called ‘BRONJ’). This is very rare but:

a. Intravenous bisphosphonates - often used for cancer patients, leads to a high risk for BRONJ (0.8% to 12% of patients ), this increases the longer the drug is givenb. Oral bisphosphonates leads to about 1 BRONJ case in 1500 patient years (100 fold greater than general population).

A recent paper published in the prestigious British Medical Journal stated that ‘bisphosphonates’ (taken for hip fracture prevention) are ‘neither viable as a public health strategy nor cost eff ective’. The authors found that:1. No evidence exists that these drugs are eff ective at

preventing fractures in men2. In post-menopausal women, in whom osteoporosis is

most often problematic, ‘175 women with bone fragility would need to be treated for three years to prevent’ just ‘one hip fracture’; while all patients remain at risk of side eff ects, but in women over 80, where most fractures occur no evidence of benefi t exists.

3. A recent analysis by the FDA found people receiving bisphosphonates continuously for 6 years had more fractures than a second group who took bisphosphonates for only 3 years then switched to placebo for 3 years

4. Age adjusted incidence of hip fractures has fallen steadily in most Western countries… and this ‘does not seem to be attributable to drug treatment’

5. Poor balance is a much better predictor of bone fracture than bone density

6. Other bone density drug options such as Denosumab; strontium ranelate; & ‘Vitamin D & Calcium’ supplementation all have effi cacy & risk questions hanging over them.

This becomes terribly confusing for most people. What should one do?

Whether you take pharmaceuticals or try alternative approaches, it’s important you do your research thoroughly and discuss pros and cons with your doctor. There are some excellent natural strategies that one can implement to improve balance & bone density. Next month we’ll discuss some of these, meantime if you have back problems or are worried about bone density why not come talk to us at BHW - see our ad for contact details.

Woman Stabbed – Glenmore ParkA woman has been hospitalised with stab wounds after an

incident at a home in Glenmore Park last month.About 5.40pm (Tuesday 14 June 2016), emergency services

were called to a home in Garswood Road after reports were received that a woman had been injured.

Emergency services located a 29-year-old woman who had suff ered stab wounds.

The woman was treated at the scene by Ambulance Paramedics and conveyed to Westmead Hospital in a serious but stable condition.

Offi cers from Penrith Local Area Command attended the location and established a crime scene.

Police commenced a search for a 42-year-old man who it is believed is known to the woman.

About 6pm the man was located at Jamisontown where he was treated by Ambulance Paramedics for what are believed to be self infl icted injuries.

He was also conveyed to Westmead Hospital in a critical condition.

Police continue with their inquiries into the incident.
