The question of what -- if anything -- diners like to eat with roast beef po-boy was posed to readers on nola.com. French fries beat out potato chips in the online poll. Commenter JWC_70115 spoke for many locals while pledging alliegance to a popular brand of the latter: "Zapp's chips adds a nice salty crunch to contrast the soft juiciness of a good RB poboy."
Less traditional sides also have their place. Potato salad finished in fifth in the online poll. I've been known to add spoonfuls of vinegary Italian salad to my roast beef po-boy at R & O's, and the fried jalapenos at Bear's at Gennaro's shouldn't be ignored, particularly if you have someone to share them with.
The roast beef po-boy itself should occupy the lion's share of your appetite's attention. Some believe in cutting out distractions altogether: "Nothing" came in a surprising - and strong - third in the online poll.
"If you have the appetite and room for any sort of a side order with your poboy," wrote commenter jpmckay23, "then you really need to be ordering a larger poboy."

Chief Executive's Welcome
Hello everyone,
Wishing everyone a wonderful Christmas and all the very best of wishes for 2016. It has been a fabulous and extremely busy year and I am so grateful for the ongoing commitment, hard work and dedication that I see day in day out across Birchwood Highland services. Thank you and well done to you all.
I officially passed my 10 year mark with Birchwood Highland at the end of November and I can hardly believe how fast it has gone. This year in particular has whizzed by, some of it already a blur (thank goodness for annual reports, we will get to relive the highlights later on!) but what stands out for me has been our increased profile across the Highlands and nationally when we were in the finals for the Scottish Charity of the year awards, our growing impact in our anti-stigma work and the way services have pulled together to support each other in terms of training, shared learning and in our fundraising events. We have contributed and achieved so much more than we had envisaged at the start of the year and that's down to imagination, commitment, hard work and our belief in positive risk taking in all areas of our services.
Moving ahead to 2016, we have an action packed year planned already. May in particular, is going to be a fun filled month, with fundraisers, conferences and mental health awareness week. A schedule of some key dates are outlined in the newsletter with others to follow as they are firmed up.
We have welcomed a number of new staff and volunteers to Birchwood Highland this year, along with a number of the next generation as it was Inverness's turn this year for the Birchwood babies. Congratulations to all and to two of our staff members at the Recovery Centre, Jenny and Steve who got married.
Wishing everyone throughout the Company the very best of wishes for 2016. I look forward to next year's journey and to building further on the excellent care and support services that we are recognised as providing.
Thank you once again for all your efforts during 2015.
Emily Stokes
Birchwood Highland Chief Executive
John Muir Award
A green fingered team of five Birchwood Highland service users have picked up a John Muir Award for their participation in a training project with Dunain Community Woodland! The trainee conservationists received the award on Tuesday 15th December from Councillor Alex Graham during a ceremony at the Anam Cara retreat centre in Inverness.
The award acknowledges the team's efforts as part of the Growing Ahead project, which was funded by the Forestry Commission and supported by Earth for Life, who provided instruction and leadership.
The project's aim was to support recovery through engagement with the great outdoors. During the project, participants learned useful conservation skills such as seed collection, woodland maintenance, including developing pathways, tree felling, building shelters and keeping safe.
Congratulations to the team!
Saltire Award for Brandon
Another award, this time for A2B service user, Brandon, who has completed a fantastic 321 hours of volunteering. At the time of volunteering Brandon had received his 10,25,50,100 & 200 hours for his Sailtre Awards at the Cantraebridge Café from Gail Duff at Sign post. Brandon has also been put forward for a special SUMMIT recognition award for almost reaching 500 hours.
If you'd like more information about volunteering, we have a section of our website about this here.
Yet Another Award!
Deborah Wilson, an administrator at Head Office, recently won the Social Enterprise category of Inverness College UHI's annual business ideas competition. The competition is open to all UHI students and everyone living in the Highlands and Islands, Moray or Perthshire aged 16 or over. Deborah is a community link student at Inverness College and attending college inspired Deborah's idea to launch, 'B U & Do', a social enterprise project which aims to prevent isolation in the Highland and Islands communities. The idea would make it possible for people from outlying areas to meet, make new friends , learn new skills and develop hobbies in a creative environment.
Deborah said: 'While in recovery from a long-term illness I benefited greatly from attending classes and courses in the community. A number of people I spoke to about this said they would like to do something similar but their remote location and the need to travel created a barrier. Social isolation is a huge concern for modern society. My goal is to develop a service which tackles this issue.'
Major funding secured for Recovery Centre
When a recent fire risk assessment at the Recovery Centre highlighted the need to remove the soft furnishings from the foyer area, it was a blow. Many of the centre's residents enjoy using the foyer as an additional social space - somewhere to chat, lounge and watch the world go by. So plans were hatched for a new communal room - a sun lounge/conservatory which would be a bright, airy space for everyone to use.
The sun lounge /conservatory will cost £45,000 to build. That's a significant investment in the Recovery Centre and no mean feat in terms of fundraising. Emily applied to the Highland Cross for assistance and, along with new Fundraising Manager Pauline, attended an interview with the Highland Cross panel on the 7th December. With just 20 minutes to make a pitch in a 'Dragon's Den' style set-up - and up against five other charities on the day - the pair were delighted to hear Birchwood Highland has been chosen as one of the beneficiary charities for the 2016 event on June 18th.
The Highland Cross is a charity duathlon which sees teams take on the Highlands on foot and on bike, with each raising from £500 to £23,000 in the process. Money raised is then gifted to fund medical, health and care causes in the north of Scotland. Building work will start on the sun lounge/conservatory as soon as the planning application is approved.
Part of the Highland Cross deal is that Birchwood Highland provides 20 volunteers to help on the race day (June 18th 2016) - that's where you come in! We don't know what our task will be yet but this is a great event to be involved with and given the scale of Highland Cross's investment we want to show how appreciative we are. Email firstname.lastname@example.com to register your interest in volunteering. To view the Highland Cross presentation, click here.
Caring and Sharing £1000 Christmas Windfall
Birchwood Highland's Easter Ross service has received a special Christmas windfall of £1000, thanks to the generosity of the Highland's Caring and Sharing charity shops. Set up by Izzie MacDonald and run by volunteers, the Caring and Sharing shops in Inverness and Invergordon have been supporting local causes by selling a range of goods, including clothing, books, music, furniture and antiques, for almost six years. This generous Caring and Sharing donation will go towards the service user fund, making all sorts of fun days out and activities possible.
"We're absolutely delighted to be able to support such a worthwhile cause. It gives us great pleasure to be able to make a difference to service users' lives by enabling them to take part in activities they might not have otherwise had the opportunity to do. We'd like to wish everyone at Birchwood Highland a very merry Christmas and a happy New Year." - Izzie MacDonald (pictured above with Team Manager, Lynn Keith).
A word from our new Fundraising Manager/60 Second Interview
Hi everyone, I'm the new Fundraising Manager here at Birchwood Highland and we have lots of plans for major event in the year ahead. Many of the biggies are still under wraps, I'm afraid, but I've been talking to some great businesses and individuals around the Highlands who have all pledged their support which is very exciting. More to follow as things are firmed up! A crack team I like to call my 'foxy fundraisers' – Deborah, Sarah, Naomi and Lauren at head office – are all working on complementary ideas to tie in schools, golf clubs, dog lovers and bingo fanciers, so watch this space for updates. I've really enjoyed meeting the Birchwood Highland family – so far that's the guys at head office, the staff and residents at the Recovery Centre and the Easter Ross team and service users and I'm looking forward to hooking up with everyone in Lochaber, Telford Road, Glendoe Terrace and Burns Road in due course. You'll get used to me, my questions and my camera! Right now I'm working on a series of films on the subject of how different people in the community keep their minds healthy. If you would like to be the subject of a short film (anonymity can be assured if you prefer), contact me at pauline.burnett@birchwood highland.org.uk
Q. What did you do before you started working for Birchwood Highland?
"I edited a newspaper supplement called Highland Life which means I know lots of businesses and individuals across the Highlands. Some of them even like me, so I'll be calling in lots of favours to get support for Birchwood Highland."
Q. Who would you most like to be stuck in a lift with?
"Johnny Depp. I interviewed him in London around the time of Edward Scissorhands and wasn't that fussed about meeting him, but when he walked in I saw stars and birds tweeted… the works."
Q. What made you want to work for Birchwood Highland?
"I didn't know anything about Birchwood Highland until Emily approached me to host the Fashion Show this year. When I found out what a vital role the charity plays I was intrigued as I have first-hand experience of mental health issues through friends. I also felt I would be able to bring the press spotlight onto what everyone in the organisation does. I'm still getting my feet under the table but I have big plans…"
Q. Is there a book you've read that changed your life?
"I like reading plays – anything 20th Century, really – Brecht, Chekov, Miller. My favourite has to be John Byrne's work (The Slab Boys, Cuttin' A Rug, Tutti Frutti). Paisley-born, Byrne just gets it as far as dialogue is concerned. As a teenager in Glasgow I went to every play of his at the Citizen's Theatre and last year I got to interview him. He's entertaining, intense and fabulous."
Q. Who inspires you?
"I know he's a kind of Marmite person, you either love him or hate him, but Chris Evans is a media genius. He's talented and never rests on his laurels, plus he's great fun, people love him and he can ask for anything."
Q. What's your most bizarre talent?
"I can lamb a sheep. We have 46 sheep on our croft and I look amazing in yellow waterproofs, let me tell you."
Q. What's your favourite sound/noise?
"My youngest son, Gaelan, singing. He's nine and the innocence in his voice is gorgeous." (Pictured right)
Q. What's your least favourite word?
Q. If you were a biscuit, what kind would you be?
"A Jammy Dodger!"

New event! Mad May Mile
This month will see the launch of Birchwood Highland's Mad May Mile. The event itself will run on May 15th, departing from Eden Court and going around Whin Park, with the idea of being dressed in the craziest style possible, or completing the mile in the daftest way you can think of (backwards, tied to your boss, on stilts, whatever).
The new event will be launched over the Christmas/New Year period to garner us as much coverage in the Inverness Courier as possible. To register your interest in taking part in the event and get a sponsorship form, contact Pauline at pauline.burnett@birchwood highland.org.uk
Talk about your role in Birchwood Highland
Would you like to be part of a Scotland-wide project to help more people understand the complex, rewarding work you do and the difference it makes to our communities? The Social Services Care Network is launching a national social media campaign running from December to February aimed at helping to raise awareness through conversations and storytelling of what social service workers do and the difference they make to people's lives and to our communities.Working in social services is not always about difficult stuff. There are plenty of good things happening. More people need to hear those stories. And as someone who does this work every day, you can help by sharing your experiences. If you would like to be part of this project contact Pauline at firstname.lastname@example.com and she will do a quick interview with you.
Annabel's Big Birthday Surprise
Annabel Mowat knew she was having a birthday. She knew it was a 'big' one. What she didn't know was that Emily had arranged a surprise bash for her at head office. So, under the pretext of the joys of a meeting to discuss payroll, Annabel was invited to come down, ooh, about lunchtime on the big day itself. However, Annabel tried to resist. How could she get out of it? Could this meeting be on another day? "Nope!", she was told. "Harumph," thought Annabel. The party planners sighed with relief. It was then up to Annabel's daughter (Business Support Officer, Fiona MacKenzie), who was also in on the surprise, to drive Annabel to the 'meeting', resisting all calls to stop for a sandwich on the way! But the surprise was kept intact and Annabel's delight was clear to see. A table heaving with nibbles and a gorgeous cake from Harry Gow made for a lovely lunch. Much better than that meeting about payroll!
Scottish Mental Health Arts & Film Festival Exhibition

Migrants Matter Symposium
We're excited to announce that Birchwood Highland is organising a Symposium to discuss issues around mental health of EU migrant communities in the Highlands. The event will focus especially on the role of stigma and self-stigma in preventing Highland migrants from seeking help when experiencing mental health issues. It will also try to find solutions to help overcome the existing barriers to accessing mental health services by EU migrants. This Symposium is part of our year-long project called 'Migrant Matters', which is funded by 'see me' Scotland. One of the project partners is the University of the Highlands and Islands, who are providing academic support in the peer research project, which is also currently underway.
The research findings will be presented at the Symposium alongside other academic papers on the subject of migration and mental health and we are hoping that some renowned figures from the academic world will be present at the event, including a recognised specialist in the field from Canada. The speakers will also include mental health professionals, local and national politicians, decision-makers as well as Highland migrants themselves. The Symposium is planned to take place on 26th May 2016 at the Jurys Inn Hotel (formerly the Thistle Hotel). If you would like to discuss any aspects of the event, please contact Paulina Duncan at firstname.lastname@example.com
Climbing the Walls with A2B
The A2B drop in moved on to offering a wider range of activities. Young people asked for the drop in to be more activity based and in response to this a session was booked at the Go Outdoors climbing wall in Inverness.
Go Outdoors are keen to support local community initiatives and made the group very welcome with refreshments provided, as well as the necessary equipment, instruction and encouragement.
Everyone enjoyed the activity and this is being repeated on Thursday 17th December by popular demand!

Community Services Manager
Food & Health
Jenny Cargill at the Recovery Centre recently held a Food and Health course at Inshes Church. This course was open to all staff and service users. The course was very informative and Jenny did a great job at making it fun and interesting with activities throughout the day. Everyone who attended came away with lots more knowledge and everyone passed their exam at the end of the day! Jenny will be running another Food and Health course on the 22nd February. Again this course is open to all services and feedback from those who attended the course last week was that it was very enjoyable and very informative. The Food and Health course looks at the relationship between food and health. It looks at barriers individuals may face in relation to health and considers what is meant by a balanced diet. The course looks at carbohydrates, protein, fats along with vitamins and minerals. Participants on the course will look at energy balance, and the role food has in relation to health conditions. The course will consist of group activities, some personal reflection and a mini multiple choice test at the end of the day. Upon successful completion of the course and the multiple choice test, participants will receive a certificate in Food and Health from REHIS (Royal Environmental Health Institute of Scotland) and a handbook. If anyone would like to be attend this course, please contact Head Office.
Getting into the Christmas Spirit
The breakfast club took on a festive feel this week, the tree was up, Christmas music channel on and several residents and staff had the pleasure of having hot chocolate marshmallows and cream along with chocolate chip and apple and cinnamon muffins.
We managed to tell some really terrible Christmas jokes even though we didn't have crackers. We all ate too much but thoroughly enjoyed a little taste of Christmas to get us all in the mood for the 25th December.

Here's the Christmas stall this year (left) where Sarah, Naomi and Deborah from Head Office had a day raising awareness and funds for Birchwood Highland at Charleston Academy's Christmas Fair on the 4th of December and below are photos from the Recovery Centre's very festive Christmas party.
A very warm congratulations to Andrew Greig who has a new baby girl! Here he is running for Birchwood Highland is his very professional running gear.
And speaking of babies, here's an update about the Childcare Voucher Scheme. You can choose to take vouchers in lieu of part of your salary under a Salary Exchange Scheme. These are exchanged for a part of your gross salary (i.e. before tax) and they are exempt from both tax and National Insurance contributions. Childcare vouchers can be used to pay for all types of registered childcare including childminders, nurseries, nannies, au pairs, creches and playgroups. Contact Head Office if you'd like more information.
Also, congratulations to Jenny and Steve Cargill who got married in the Autumn. Both work at the Recovery Centre - Jenny as Cooking Support worker and Steve as Relief Staff Nurse. Here's Jenny and Steve running in the Inverness 5K raising funds for Birchwood Highland earlier this year!
Inverness Museum & Art Gallery Project - Transitions Reflections
Pending successful funding, this exciting project will give members of HUG and Birchwood Highland service users the opportunity to work on and display an exhibition of artwork in the Community Gallery for a 6 week period in summer 2016 to coincide with 'Celts - Reflections on Tour in the main gallery, and will also be shown at other venues including Birchwood Highland, New Craigs and through the Highland Council Equalities Officer as part of the Scottish Mental Health Film Festival and will include talks and dramatic works inspired by the artwork. Workshops will be commencing in the New Year on Wednesday 24 February and each Wednesday until Wednesday 16 March, in the afternoons for 1.5 hours and two whole day workshops creating poetry and art responses to the objects (with lunchbreaks and teabreaks) on Wednesday 23 March and Wednesday 30 March.
Christmas in Poland
In Poland the Christmas period starts at the beginning of Advent. It's a time when people try to be peaceful and remember the real reason for Christmas. People try to avoid excess, with some giving up their favourite foods or drinks. Parties and discos are not the done thing. Some people also go to Church quite frequently. There is a tradition of special services called 'Roraty', which are held at dawn and dedicated to Mary and the good news she received from the Angel Gabriel.
During Advent people also prepare their houses for Christmas. A lot of cleaning goes on, with people cleaning their windows and washing their carpets very thoroughly. Everything must be clean for Christmas Day! Before Christmas, children in schools and preschools take part in Nativity Plays. These are very popular and often more secular than religious - the nativity story is also sometimes set in modern times.
Christmas Eve is considered the most important day over Christmas - even though it's not a public holiday, however Christmas Day and Boxing Day are. Christmas Eve is known as Wigilia (pronounced vee-GHEE-lee-uh). The house must be clean and everyone gets washed and puts on their festive clothes. The main Christmas meal is eaten in the evening on Christmas Eve. Traditionally no food is eaten until the first star can be seen in the sky and children look at the night sky to spot the first star and urge the family to begin the supper. Like in many Catholic countries, Christmas Eve is often a fasting day, which means that some people don't eat anything until after the sunset (when the Church day officially ends). This is also where the custom of the first star comes from.
Traditionally the supper should consist of 12 dishes – the number is meant to ensure good luck for the next 12 months. For Catholics the 12 dishes symbolise Jesus's 12 disciples. The meal is traditionally meat-free - this is to remember the animals who took care of baby Jesus in the manger. Some people in central Poland say that at midnight animals can talk and some farmers go to the byre at midnight to see if their cows and pigs have something special to tell them or whether they will get a telling off! There are many other customs attached to the evening meal. For instance, everyone has to eat - or at least try - each of the 12 dishes. One of the most important dishes is "red borscht" (beetroot soup) and it's almost mandatory to have it. If you really hate it, you can eat mushroom soup instead. Borscht can be eaten with "uszka" (little dumplings with wild mushroom filling). Carp is traditionally the main dish. The fish itself is often bought a few days earlier, preferably alive and it swims in the bath until it's killed by the bravest person in the family. The carp scales are said to bring luck and fortune and are kept by some for the whole year in their purse.
"Bigos" is another traditional dish served on Christmas Eve. It's made of sauerkraut, wild mushrooms, and sometimes prunes. It is cooked about a week or so before Christmas Eve, as it gets tastier with time. On Christmas day sausage and other meat can be added to it, because you are no longer required to fast Pickled herring is commonly served for starter and can be prepared in many different ways, with chopped onions, grated apple or sour cream sauce. Each household has their own recipe which they are proud of and which is passed from generation to generation.
The most popular desserts on Christmas Eve is a poppy seed roll made of sweet yeast bread and "kutia", which is a mix of dried fruits and nuts with cooked wheat grains and poppy seeds. Poppy seeds traditionally symbolise abundance and are thought to bring good fortune in the coming year hence many Christmas desserts are made of them. Another popular dessert is "piernik", which is a moist cake made with honey and spices and gingerbread biscuits, which are usually dry and very hard and only the most skilled bakers know how to make it actually edible.At the beginning of the meal a large wafer is passed around the table and everyone breaks a piece off it, exchanging Christmas wishes. Sometimes a small piece may be given to any farm animals or pets that the family may have. This symbolises the Christian duty of sharing food and earthly goods with others. Also a place is often left empty at the meal table for an unexpected guest.
Polish people believe that no one should be alone or hungry on that night, therefore if someone unexpectedly knocks on the door they are to be welcomed. In some houses, the empty place is to commemorate a dead relative or to remember a family member who couldn't come to the meal. Sometimes a bit of hay is scattered on the floor of the room or under the table cloth as a reminder that Jesus was born in a manger.For children (and maybe not only them) the toughest thing about the Christmas Eve supper is that you can't open the presents before the end of it. In some families, before the presents are opened, the family sings carols together. Sometimes more carols are sung just to tease the children who can't wait to find out what presents they have. Presents are brought by St Nicholas/Santa Claus. On occasion Santa can bring a birch stick to very naughty children so children try to make sure they behave well before Christmas.
Traditionally the Christmas tree is also often brought in and decorated on Christmas Eve. It is decorated with a star on the top to represent the Star of Bethlehem, gingerbreads, lights (previously candles), baubles and glass ornaments in different shapes. These are usually hand-made, painted or decorated in different ways. In the east of Poland the decorations are traditionally made of straw and are very beautiful. In some houses there is also a custom of breaking one of the Christmas Tree decorations (e.g. breaking a glass bauble) to scare evil out of the house for the whole year. Christmas Eve is finished by going to Church for a Midnight Mass service.
Healthy Working Lives

Health & Safety Snippets
Health & Safety issues have featured highly over the past year, with a number of changes and also lessons that we have been able to learn through taking learning from elsewhere or as a result of incidents that have happened across our services. Health & Safety is the responsibility of everyone, not just health & safety leads, so we thought it would be helpful to share a few headlines from this year.
Driving at Work Policy
All staff and volunteers will have been issued with a letter requesting information and details where staff declare that they drive to work or may use their car in the course of their work. This additional request is due to Health & Safety Executive guidance and a rise in expectations on employers following the Glasgow Bin lorry tragedy last December. Please do get these forms in as soon as you are able and review your insurance policies to ensure that you are covered to drive whilst at work.
Hepatitis B Vaccinations
All staff are reminded to take universal precautions at all times to reduce the risk of any type of infection. With regards to Hep B vaccinations, we have reviewed our policy in relation to this and are able to reimburse staff for the cost charged by your GP for this vaccination. Please obtain a receipt and use this to claim your reimbursement or ask your practice to invoice us directly if they will.
BHRC Fire Audit
Congratulations to all at BHRC for the best ever fire audit. The expectations rise each year in terms of fire safety as they rightly should. Birchwood Highland also invest heavily in protecting all our services against the risk of fire and a more costly, but more comprehensive fire risk assessment was carried out at BHRC this year identifying further actions that we could put in place before our audit by the Fire Brigade.
Other Health & Safety topics that have featured highly on the agenda during 2015 include:
Lone Working - it is essential for all staff lone working to work to our Staff Working Alone policy at all times.
Risk Assessments - we are also reviewing risk assessments again in terms of developing a protocol on positive risk taking and what risk assessment means in an attempt to support staff further on this. The Recovery Centre are leading on this work and will also develop some training which will be rolled out amongst all staff groups.
Staff Induction - we are currently reviewing our staff induction again to try and make these as comprehensive for new starters as possible. We are taking into account feedback from new starters, but welcome any further views from staff.
First Aid Training - at the moment, we offer standard training across all services, however, in some services, there may be specific areas that require an additional focus as they may be a major risk in that area. We are asking all services to consider this and highlight what you feel the major risks to the service user group in your service are, so that some time can also be devoted to focusing in on these.

Bull sharks go back home to give birth
BULL SHARKS born in Sunshine Coast river systems mature and travel south, connecting with populations off and inside Gold Coast waterways.
A forum at Maroochydore this week will be told females, following distinct chemical cues from each river system, return to where they are born to give birth to their own pups.
Dr Jonathan Werry, of Ocean and Coast Research, is running a bull shark monitoring program to better understand the lifecycle and habits of bull sharks.
He said animals from 1.5m and up regularly move between the Sunshine Coast and the Gold Coast, although one has been tracked as far north as Cairns and another south to Bondi, in Sydney.
The sharks stay in the upper reaches of river systems where salinity is low, moving down the systems as they mature before leaving in search of mates offshore as they reach six to seven years of age.
One female, measuring 2.7m in length, was recently tracked entering the Noosa River during pupping seasons. She stayed two days before heading back to sea, presumably after giving birth.
Dr Werry says the sharks appear to be similar to marine turtles, which also return to where they were born to give birth.
The forum on all things coastal will be held at Maroochy Surf Club next week.
Staged by Sunshine Coast Council, it will consider everything from the plan to manage the potential ocean breakthrough of Bribie Island and into Pumicestone Passage, the results of a recent CSIRO study into marine debris, through to the early results of Dr Werry's monitoring program.
There will also be discussion about council's coastal management programs and turtle nesting and hatchling survival.
"Through its many programs, council invests in maintaining healthy waterways and foreshores, however we can't do that alone and the community play a key role in both supporting and participating in the work that we do," council environment portfolio head Jenny McKay said.
Other presentations will include the Bribie Island Breakthrough Investment Plan with Dr Matthew Barnes of WBM; results of the recent CSIRO marine debris research with Dr Chris Wilcox; natural areas coastal management with Conor Jenkins; turtle hatchings flood impact with Kate Winter; Gold Coast City Council coastal program with Shannon Hunt; and Bunya Bunya mangrove project with Kerry Jones.
Anyone wishing to attend the free forum can book on the council's website, through the events hub.
The forum will be held in the Maroochy Surf Club Function Room, Cotton Tree on May 5 from 9am to 3.30pm

To the Editor:
While the use of white phosphorus may not violate the Chemical Weapons Convention if used for its normal purpose as camouflage, it may well violate the treaty if used against any person -- soldier or civilian.
Under the convention, a toxic chemical is one that through its chemical action "can cause death" or "temporary incapacitation." If ignited, white phosphorus lands on a person's skin; it burns through the flesh to the bone.
The United States argued that in the Falluja assault, white phosphorus was used as a conventional, not a chemical, weapon.
But a spokesman for the agency that monitors the convention cast doubt on that argument; he stated that if the toxic or caustic properties of white phosphorus are intended to be used as a weapon against humans, that use is prohibited.
Imagine the outcry if enemy forces used white phosphorus against United States troops.

According to the United States Fire Administration, residential fires peak during the winter months due to holiday decorations including electric lights and signs, candles, garlands and Christmas trees that dry out over the course of the season. In fact, the USFA says that fires which are ignited by Christmas trees result in damage costs that are three times higher and fatalities, which are eight times higher than fires which are started by other factors.
As Thanksgiving comes to pass and you start thinking about decorating for the holidays, make sure your apartment and apartment complex are free from fire hazards with these holiday safety tips:
Choose the Right Christmas Tree for Your Apartment
Choose a fresh Christmas tree and leave it up for no more than 2 weeks. A Christmas tree that easily loses its needles when shaken has been cut too early and is already drying out. Fresh trees don a more vibrant shade of green, exude a stronger pine fragrance and have a sticky trunk. Be careful not to place your Christmas tree near a major heat source such as a fireplace or heater because it will suck the moisture from the tree increasing the chances of your tree becoming an incendiary device. Don't smoke around the tree and always make sure you keep the water reservoir full. If you are using a fake tree, make sure it's flame retardant and avoid placing it near heat zones as well.
Set Up Holiday Lights Around Your Apartment with Care
Yes, waking up to the warm glow of a lit Christmas tree on a cold holiday morning will make you smile, but don't leave the lights on for Santa. Leaving holiday lights on unattended is not only a waste of electricity but it's a major fire hazard. Always make sure to turn your Christmas tree lights and holiday lights off when you leave your apartment or home or when you go to bed. Make sure you only buy strands of lights that have been safety tested and follow the directions and precautions provided for stringing and powering your lights. Too many strings of lights attached together to a single power source can spell disaster. Likewise, if you are using older strands of lights, make sure that the wires are not frayed or kinked which can literally spark an electrical nightmare.
Think Through Your Holiday Decoration Choices
A little tinsel here, a little tinsel there, the excitement of the holidays can sweep us away as we drag out every last Christmas decoration from the hall closet. Sure, who doesn't love a big pumpkin spice scented candle, or that Ho! Ho! Ho! sign made from felt and yarn but make sure to handle them with care and place them strategically in your apartment home to avoid dangerous accidents. Some holiday decorations are more prone to burst out in flame if placed too close to a heat source while others like candles, are more obviously a threat if knocked over or left burning. Stockings by the fire really should be hung with care to avoid danger, better yet, find a different spot for them!
With a little thought and planning, it's easy to make sure that the holidays will be merry and bright. Think through the types and placement of your holiday decor and take all the necessary precautions to avoid any fire hazards. We all know that getting the wrong present for the holidays is disappointing but imagine how depressing it would be to lose all of your presents to a holiday fire that could have easily been avoided!

The Kenyan Civil War
The assassination of a second opposition politician in Kenya proves that President Kibaki's supporters are not satisfied with just stealing the election, they want to overturn the ODM's control of Parliament. This would constitute the end of Kenya's "democracy experiment" begun in 2002.
However the return to dictatorship will not stabilize the situation there. If anything, it's going to lead to full-blown civil war. We are possibly already in the early stages of that war, and unless some breakthrough is made between the Odinga and Kabaki, I see nothing less than the collapse of Kenya into two or more separate states based on ethnicity similar to what happened in Yugoslavia 18 years ago.
Such an event would constitute the greatest disaster to befall East Africa since the Rwandan Genocide.
Thinking Kenyan makes some interesting points about the calls for peace without justice:
What about the call for peace?. I support the call for peace.We can go to the mountain tops and shout peace peace peace,In fact i personally went to Nakumatt and donated foodstuffs for the displaced.But in reality,have we solved the issues that brought about the unrest in the first place?
So after the Kalenjin has stopped attacking his kikuyu neighbors and become peaceful,should he just forget that he had a problem as well?Will the call for peace remove all doubts in his head that the elections were rigged?Will it have solved any land issues?

By Tom Waynick
Why do we fish? There are hundreds of reasons but it all comes down to that suspenseful anticipation as we wait for the exhilarating moment when a fish takes our bait. It's all about experiencing the bite. "Get ready to triple your pleasure because we are about to add several senses to the mixture. Seeing and hearing a big old cat pull that jug down. Then there's the chase. A really big one may pull a jug a couple of miles before you catch up to him and wrestle him in the boat. Talk about feeling, think of handling a 20 pound whisker fish" Says multi-species guide Jim Duckworth who has taken jug fishing for catfish to another level.
To begin with Duckworth does not use jugs. We would be more accurate in labeled his craft noodle fishing as his "jugs" are in fact fabricated from water noodle swimming pool toys. Once transformed from water toy to cat noodle, other than the name, these long slender foam objects in no way resemble what your kids are bashing each other with in the pool. They are transformed into the most efficient catfish catching tool ever. They are efficient and much easier to store than two liter soft drink bottles or motor oil containers. Expect to place as many as sixteen noodles in one small plastic milk crate.
To create cat noodles Jim cuts the pool toys into 12 inch sections. Each five foot long noodle produces five catfish noodles. Once cut a wire coat hanger is snipped leaving the straight bottom rung where your pants are hung and about four inches of the bend on one end. The opposite end is cut off before the bend. Now you have a wire with a curve on one end and a straight wire on the other. The straight end is run through the noodles body from end to end until it protrudes from the top. "This takes a little practice as to not have the wire exit through the outside or the inside. You want it to be parallel to the outside but about an inch or so into the solid part of the noodle". Duckworth advises.
The catfish guide hangs a large swivel onto the bottom bend and pushes it up into the noodle body. He then bends the straight section protruding from the top and pushes it back into the top of the noodle after slipping a jingle bell onto the top bend. "We are fishing these things at night most times and that bell alerts you to the fact you have a fish on. Sounds like Santa Claus and his little reindeer running across the lake when you get several fish on at one time." Duckworth laughs.
Locating the noodles after dark is easy. Duckworth wraps a piece of automotive reflector tape around the top of the noodle which reflects light from his spotlight. He then ties a piece of 40 pound test Berkeley Big Cat solar line to the swivel which is finished off with a ¼ ounce split shot and a Daiichi Bleeding Bait circle hook. He uses solar line which glows brightly under his Nite Eyes blacklight making it easier to capture the line from the water and to re-tie knots.
If fishing for eating size fish, one to three pounds, Jim uses either large Tuffy minnows or his latest discovery a product called Worm-Glo. Worm Glo actually changes live night crawlers from a normal boring reddish brown to a bright shade of chartreuse. "Just sprinkle a tablespoon of this stuff into a box of night crawlers 24 to 48 hours before you plan to go fishing and put them in the refrigerator. I don't know how it does it but the crawlers are livelier, fatter, and exhibit a bright chartreuse color which catfish cannot turn down." Duckworth indicates. I was a witness to the effectiveness of the Glo worms as we put out 18 noodles one evening at 10pm and the next morning there were sixteen catfish bobbing those jugs around at daybreak.
The secret to coming up with enough catfish for a big fish fry is location, location, location. "I fish big shallow flats next to the river channel or in major creeks. I fish the baits down about 3 feet with a 1/0 circle hook. The first thing I do before tossing the first noodle is check for wind direction. You want to place the jugs so they will take the longest drift possible, that way you don't need to keep pulling them up and regrouping them. If the wind is blowing into the creek or upon a flat I'll drop at the mouth. If the wind is blowing from the back I'll start at the back and drop them in shallow water and let them blow out toward open water. You never can tell where the hook up is going to be along the way".
When asked about times when there is no wind the knowledgeable guide drops noodles atop the flats or in pockets off major creeks. At this point fishing areas are chosen as if you were fishing with a rod and reel. Drop your lines where you think the catfish may come up to feed. If there are no takers after a period of time pull them up and drop them elsewhere.
When hunting for really hefty cats Jim targets Flatheads and Blues. The areas he fishes are the same as before but the baits are changed. "If I am targeting big cats like flatheads and blues I use a two to five inch red breasted sunfish for bait, they attract the bigger fish for sure, especially flatheads. I upsize to a 5/0 or 6/0 Bleeding bait hook, hook the bait in the back just behind the dorsal fin. I then slip a small section of plastic I tear off of a Bass Assassin turbo tail. They inject these plastics which glow in the dark and that's what I want. The glowing plastic keeps the hook from slipping out of the bait and in addition helps the catfish see the bait more easily." Duckworth explains.
. Every lake in Tennessee has catfish and this system will work well on all of them. Toss noodles out in groups of a half dozen each in four or five likely places on your local lake. It will not be long before you locate some very productive spots. Try to distribute noodles just before dark and be sure to pick them up the next morning. The best bite generally happens right after dark and just before daylight.
In Tennessee jugs must be run at least within a 24 hour period. In addition your name and city of residence should be written on the noodle with a permanent marker. If you see jugs or noodles that obviously have been on the water for an extended period of time pick them up and either discard or recycle them. As with limb lines, abandoned jugs will cause problems for boaters and wildlife. Enjoy one of summer's most exciting ways to fish but please do it responsibly.
Guide Jim Duckworth has a new video titled "Nightfishing for Catfish". The video explains his entire cat catching system in detail. Videos may be found at Bass Pro Shops or ordered direct from Jim's web site at www.jimduckworth.com

While many people are embracing and celebrating Caitlyn Jenner, a petition has been started on Change.org calling for the International Olympic Committee to revoke Jenner's 1976 gold medal from the Olympics.
>> RELATED: 5 things to know about Caitlyn Jenner
The petition's author, Jennifer Bradford, addressed it to the IOC and wrote:"It has recently come to light that gold medalist Bruce Jenner is in fact transgender, and therefore, identifies as a woman. We congratulate Ms. Jenner on these new developments and wish her the best. However, this creates somewhat of a problem as Ms. Jenner (as talented as she is) claims that she has always believed herself to be truly female, and therefore, was in violation of committee rules regarding women competing in men's sports and vice versa. Therefore, it is with a heavy heart that we must ask whether or not it is proper that Ms. Jenner should retain her Olympic records in light of this, as we must now either claim that Bruce Jenner and Caitlyn Jenner are two entirely different people (which we know is not true), or that Bruce Jenner was, in fact, a woman participating in a men's event. It is only fair to all involved that women receive their credit as champions of the Decathlon and that the men racing Ms. Jenner are not expected to compete with a superior, streamlined being such as herself."
Bradford added, "Thank you, and congratulations to Ms. Jenner for her courage! #givebackthegold."
The petition has more than 8,900 signatures by Thursday morning, exceeding the stated goal of 5,000.
Jenner, who won the gold medal in the decathlon, was married at the time. He hadn't started any hormone therapy.

Your basket is empty.
Filled with psychedelic '70s style by Italian cult director Renato Polselli (Delirium), this satanic shocker pulses with violently erotic energy, and is a must see for horror aficionados.
In a mountaintop castle, devil worshippers hunt down virgins and cut out their hearts to restore life to their Great Mistress Isabella (Rita Calderoni), a witch who was burned to death centuries before. The castle is purchased by the unwitting Jack Nelson (Mickey Hargitay, former husband of Jayne Mansfield), whose niece Laureen (also played by Rita Calderoni) bears a striking resemblance to Mistress Isabella. Drawn into the cult's evil orbit, Laureen is targeted as the final sacrifice in order to restore Isabella's terrifying power.
Director:Renato Polselli (as Ralph Brown)
Cast: Mickey Hargitay, Rita Calderoni, Raoul [Raoul Traucher], Krista Barrymore, Moschera Consolata [Consolata Moschera], William Darni, Max Dorian, Bonini Marcello [Marcello Bonini], Cristina Perrier, Stefania Fassio, Gabriele Bentivoglio, Fanfoni Vittorio [Vittorio Fanfoni], Anna Ardizzone, Marisa Indice.

While I was writing my new Taki's Magazine column on Ferguson across Monday night and Tuesday morning, the sense was palpable that the dominant media had taken a humiliating double blow in a battle of their own choosing:
- The grand jury's finding after months of careful research contradicted the Narrative promulgated in August and tenaciously held to ever since despite the piling up of evidence.
- The looting and arson by "protesters" in Ferguson was disgusting.
The first mainstream media pieces trying to snark about the events of Monday were deluged that night by critical commenters clearly better informed than the paid journalists.
But, as Stalin liked to say, quantity has a quality all its own. Since then, the MSM has doubled down about how you can't believe your lying eyes. To tell others journalists what the party line should be, the NYT Editorial Board has editorialized:
The Meaning of the Ferguson Riots
By THE EDITORIAL BOARD NOV. 25, 2014
Here's the picture the NYT editorial board chose to illustrate their editorial:
The implications are that the Good People, the True Believers will be able to rise above what their lying eyes see in this photo and understand the gnostic truth:
The St. Louis County grand jury's decision not to indict the white police officer who in August shot and killed Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager, would have generated widespread anger and disappointment in any case. But the county prosecutor, Robert McCulloch, who is widely viewed in the minority community as being in the pockets of the police, made matters infinitely worse by handling this sensitive investigation in the worst possible way.
First, he refused to step aside in favor of a special prosecutor who could have been appointed by Gov. Jay Nixon of Missouri. He further undermined public confidence by taking a highly unorthodox approach to the grand jury proceeding. Instead of conducting an investigation and then presenting the case and a recommendation of charges to the grand jury, his office shifted its job to the grand jury. It made no recommendation on whether to indict the officer, Darren Wilson, but left it to the jurors to wade through masses of evidence to determine whether there was probable cause to file charges against Officer Wilson for Mr. Brown's killing.
I thought you were complaining that the Democratic prosecutor didn't step aside altogether, and now you are complaining that he stepped aside partly.
Under ordinary circumstances, grand jury hearings can be concluded within days. The proceeding in this case lasted an astonishing three months.
A complete failure of the Rush to Judgment process!
… For the black community of Ferguson, the killing of Michael Brown was the last straw in a long train of abuses that they have suffered daily at the hands of the local police.
What percentage of the looters and arsonists are residents of Ferguson? Until America's power elite decided to destroy what had been a modestly encouraging example of blacks and whites getting along together over the decades, the black residents of Ferguson were, on the whole, content with their government, as a long line of elections demonstrated. After all, they wouldn't have moved to Ferguson, often from black ruled municipalities like East St. Louis, if the place was so intolerable. And if it was so bad once they were there, they would have bothered to vote.
But since the whole point of the exercise was to rile up black turnout for this month's midterm elections, the national leadership set about destroying the property values of black and white homeowners in Ferguson.
News accounts have strongly suggested, for example, that the police in St. Louis County's many municipalities systematically target poor and minority citizens for street and traffic stops — partly to generate fines — which has the effect of both bankrupting and criminalizing whole communities.
Speed traps as justification for riot and mayhem!
By the way, that reminds me that the city of Los Angeles has cranked up it parking ticket enforcement to bring in more revenue, which favors the kind of rich people who get valet parking or pay to park in private lots. Therefore, I should loot the Barnes & Noble's coffeetable art book section.
In this context, the police are justifiably seen as an alien, occupying force that is synonymous with state-sponsored abuse.
The case resonated across the country — in New York City, Chicago and Oakland
Oakland — the moral leader of the world
When you own the Megaphone, the most important thing is to keep talking, no matter how temporarily depressed you might be by how you've managed to embarrass yourself yet again with your previous talk talk. It's like in Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron: whatever you do, don't stop yapping and let your victim have a chance to think for himself.

Part 4, Sections 17-22 Summary and Analysis
Part 4: The Magic of Images begins with a quote by Byron in 1821 that the scope of the sculptor is to heighten nature into heroic beauty, thus surpassing his model. Section 17: The Awe of Images, describes man's earliest images of living creatures which lie in the caves of Altamira, Lascaux and Les Trois Freres. Paleolithic man found power as an image maker, though these drawings were not discovered until the late nineteenth century. Man did not make images of himself until the upper Paleolithic period, revealing a momentous self-discovery.
In Section 18: Human Hieroglyphs, Egyptians created immortal images by carving hieroglyphs into stone. It took until the late nineteenth century to realize that the hieroglyphs were phonetic symbols of a dead spoken language. Having never developed perspective, Egyptians focused on actual, unchanging physical dimensions.
In Section 19: The Athletic Ideal...

Outlook 2010 - Send Freeze Up HELP!
OK need some help out there from the wise PC users with Outllook 2010. We have one computer in the office that is a PC that runs Windows 7 and Office Suite 2010. For the past couple of months the Outllook has been freezing when sending a message and I can't figure out how to fix it. We have tried reinstalling outlook, remote repair (they stated it was a Microsoft Update issue but still never fixed it after 3 attempts) and system restores. NOTHING IS WORKING and this is becoming a pain in my butt becuase I am the only person in the office with a slight clue on computers....Anyways we run our mail on a 2003 exchange server and the email was working back in December no problems. Does anyone know how to get a permanent solution or a setting I may need to change? Thanks for ANY helpful answers!
IT Support Transcript:
Good Afternoon Nick,
I am the Engineer that has been working on this issue with yourself and Bonnie. Originally when we started working on this issue it seemed to be related to a add-on that was slowing down outlook to a crawl. The first time it appeared the issue was resolved as emails were sending fine. When I was contacted through the calling the card the second time I made more changes to the outlook install and did a larger repair and suggested we reinstall completely if it happens again. So as of now I suggest we move forward with the reinstall, I understand we have key for office 2010 but no media. I am attempting to locate that media for you so we can proceed. If you do locate the media please feel free to contact me through the remote chat we have going or via phone/email.

Which anti virus protection are you using?
Is it scanning emails as they are sent?
|My System Specs
|16 Mar 2011
CA Internet Security Suite, as far as I know it should scan as it goes out but I just had to update it. Could that be an issue?
|My System Specs
|16 Mar 2011
If outgoing emails are being scanned, it will cause a slight delay/freeze.
Maybe worth checking the settings and disabling that function if it is in use. Then see what difference it makes. It is more important to scan incoming mails, so I would leave that in place.
Let us know how it goes. :)

BUFFALO, N.Y. – With every save he makes, Martin Brodeur is feeling like his old self.
Brodeur stopped 29 shots, Patrik Elias had a goal and assist, and Ilya Kovalchuk scored in his return from a groin injury in the New Jersey Devils' 5-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday night.
Playing in his fourth game since a shoulder injury forced him to miss six, Brodeur's best save came with six minutes left in the second period when he snagged Jason Pominville's shot from point-blank range with his glove.
Brodeur has allowed 10 goals since his return.
"The more I play, the more comfortable I feel going all out for certain saves," he said after his record 628th NHL regular-season win. "Near the end of the game a guy came around for a wraparound, and I swung my stick. That's the first time since my injury that I did it. I didn't think about it, and it didn't hurt, so I was like, 'All right, this is good.' So now it's just one more little thing for me. It's a process."
Brodeur stymied the Sabres for most of the night with his patented acrobatic saves. It also didn't hurt that his team set a season high for goals a day after netting three in a loss at Boston.
"Hopefully it's something that we can keep going," said captain Zach Parise, who started the scoring with a short-handed goal just two minutes in. "We're doing things a lot more aggressively, which I think in the long run is going to help us produce more goals and give us more chances."
But if that fails, they can always rely on Brodeur.
"He was our best player," Devils coach Peter DeBoer said. "When your goaltender is your best player like Marty was, and like he's been for New Jersey on a lot of nights over the years, there's a comfort level."
Mark Fayne, and David Clarkson also scored for the Devils (9-7-1), who won for the second time in three games.
The Devils struck first with a pair of goals within the first 5:21. After Parise scored, Kovalchuk ended a seven-game goal drought with a power-play goal just over three minutes later.
"We knew we needed a strong start, because we knew (Buffalo) always starts really good," said Kovalchuk, who missed five games with his injury.
Tyler Myers scored twice after a one-game benching, Jordan Leopold added a goal, and Jhonas Enroth allowed five goals on 19 shots. He was pulled in the third period for Buffalo (11-7), which had a three-game, home-winning streak snapped.
It was the second straight game that the Sabres fell behind by two goals. They were down 2-0 at Montreal on Monday before rallying for a 3-2 shootout win.
"We can't keep getting down on teams like that," Myers said. "It's going to be too hard to come back every single game."
Myers was also involved in a collision with Devils forward Dainius Zubrus in the second period. With the puck entering the Buffalo zone along the right boards, Myers delivered a hard check on Zubrus, who was reaching for the puck. Myers' right arm connected with Zubrus' head, causing Zubrus to stay on the ice for a couple of minutes.
Zubrus didn't leave the game, and Myers didn't receive a penalty. After the game, Zubrus said he felt fine, but DeBoer wasn't happy with the play.
"I didn't like the look of it," DeBoer said. "It looked to me like one of the head shots they are trying to get out of the game."
Sabres coach Lindy Ruff saw it differently.
"If you want to play physical, and the guy's stretched out and bent over, sometimes bad things can happen," he said.
Enroth made his second straight start in goal for the injured Ryan Miller, who sustained a concussion against Boston on Saturday. Enroth lost in regulation for the first time in 15 decisions (13-1-1).
He was yanked with 9:33 left in the third period and replaced by Drew MacIntyre, who made two saves.
"It wasn't good enough," Enroth said. "I'm very frustrated. A real bad game from my side."
Elias extended New Jersey's lead to 4-1 with a goal three minutes into the third before Myers scored his second of the game at 7:35.
Clarkson restored New Jersey's three-goal edge just49 seconds later on a breakaway.
Leopold capped the scoring with 4:53 remaining to make it 5-3.
Up by two goals after the first period, the Devils stretched their lead to 3-1 at 8:36 of the second when Fayne wristed in a shot from the right point that got through a screen.
The Sabres cut the deficit to 2-1 when Myers scored a power-play goal with 64 seconds left in the first.
NOTES: Zubrus played in his 1,000th NHL game. … Brodeur played in his seventh game of the season, and first on the road. He earned his 37th NHL assist on Kovalchuk's goal. … Buffalo LW Cody McCormick missed his first game with an undisclosed injury. He was replaced by RW Corey Tropp, who was recalled from Rochester of the AHL earlier Wednesday. … Myers' goal was his first since March 1, a span of 36 regular-season games. … Enroth's previous regulation loss came against Pittsburgh on Nov. 24, 2010.
