THE Gore District Council has rolled out the new wheelie bin proposal and has asked for submissions. But is this a joke?

What Mr Haslemore and Mr Withers have said intimates to me that this is already a done deal regardless of whatever the ratepayer survey results may show.

How do we get rid of green waste? Not everyone can compost.

Many Gore people have small sections and small gardens and you can’t compost potato and tomato stalks and the like.

We all have to trim our shrubs and what will be the cost of this?

I believe we have a good system now and the GDC should be supporting our local people

Wash your hands and face using lukewarm, not hot, water.

This winter, opt for a non-foaming cleanser which cleanses but does not strip away your skin?s natural moisture barrier. You don?t want that squeaky clean feeling you get with cleansing gels, which can leave your skin feeling dry and taut.

Invest in a great hand cream: it will help to keep your hands soft and smooth. If possible, avoid washing your hands frequently. Apply hand cream to your hands immediately after washing them to seal in moisture.

Your lips have no natural defense against the elements. Wearing a lip balm with SPF is essential even during winter months. Your lips tend to dry out faster during this time of the year, so make sure to re-apply as necessary. Licking your lips can cause them to dry out faster, too.

DS3 circuits provide businesses and Internet Service Providers (ISPs) with up to 45 Mb/s of dedicated Internet connectivity. This is an ideal solution for users who have outgrown their T1 connections and are in search of unlimited, high-capacity access. A DS3 line actually consists of 672 individual channels, each of which supports 64 Kb/s. DS3 lines are extremely high bandwidth connections into a carrier’s backbone. They typically include SLAs (Service Level Agreements) that guarantee uptime and performance.

The DS3 signal itself is composed of 28 DS1 signals and is constructed using a two-step multiplexing process.

How to find hidden fears

Listen to your excuses.

It?s human nature to find good reasons for what we do, even when we?re really acting from pure instinct or unthinking emotion. So fear tends to lurk behind a maze of rationalisations and excuses. This means your energy goes into trying to deal with the excuses, instead of the fear which is producing them.

For instance, do you say:

?Well, I?m trying to get fit, I want to lose weight, but …??

You haven?t time, you?ve a bad back, it?s too much trouble to eat properly, you just get so hungry, exercise is so boring, life isn?t worth living without chips and chocolate …

If you try and deal with these excuses at face value you probably find yourself playing the ?Yes, but? game:

You:

?I can?t eat a low-fat lunch, everything in the canteen is fattening.?

Friend:

?They must do a salad, couldn?t you have that??

You:

?Yes, but then I?m still hungry and I can?t work properly.?

Friend:

?Couldn?t you take something to work??

You:

?Yes, but I simply don?t have time in the mornings.?

Friend:

?Couldn?t you cook it the night before??

You:

?Yes, but I?ve enough to cope with doing the family meal in the evenings…

?

And so on, indefinitely.

There are many variations of paintball games, the most common of which are capture the flag and elimination. In a capture the flag game, two teams try to capture the flag of their opponents? team while protecting their own. In an elimination game, the team that eliminates all opponents on the other team wins.

Woodsball is generally played in a wooded area and involves a lot of stalking and strategies. This style of play takes more time than Speedsball, which is played on a field roughly the size of a basketball court. Here, the players use artificial bunkers and it is a much faster-paced game. There are also large-scale scenario paintball games that usually have a theme, such as historical, science fiction and fantasy paintball games.

Paintball is an exciting game that requires not only speed, strength, and agility but also intelligence and alertness. Players also get to develop their teamwork and leadership abilities as well as gain self-confidence.

If you decide that you want to give a material gift make absolutely sure that it is unique and worthwhile. The last thing most people need is something else that they?ll use once or maybe not at all. Consider gifts with excellent design or hard to find items that the recipient will truly enjoy. Consider a Unique Spin on a Conventional Gift

If you can’t find anything truly unique that you think is a good gift then it may be time to consider a more conventional gift.

Huh?! Aren?t some people walking around with just the clothes on their backs? Yes, that is a true statement. Unless the call goes out

for clothing, shoes, blankets, and more, your sending these items may be more of a burden than a help. In 1989, while living near Charleston, South Carolina, we got slammed by Category 4 Hurricane Hugo. Soon thereafter well meaning people shipped in clothing ?- including heavy winter garments [Charleston, much like the Delta region, stays relatively warm all winter; snow is a rarity] -? and organizations did not know what to do with all the stuff. I later learned that one well known nonprofit ended up having to bale up and throw out several tons of clothing. It costs money to haul off unused clothing too.

3. Adopt a pet.

Yes, you will soon hear sad stories of pets permanently separated from their owners, many of whom died in the floods. If you cannot adopt a pet, consider sending money to an animal shelter, a zoo, or to a tourist park. Organize a bake sale, a garage or yard sale, or some other fund raising event and send the proceeds to afflicted organizations.

In many cases the temperature increase is the only indication that your child has more than just a cough and a runny nose. There are various types of thermometer available suitable for children. The old glass type with the kink is not recommended for young children. Digital thermometers are better, though disposable ones in the form of plastics strips with temperature sensitive dots are very useful. One side is self adhesive to stick to the skin under the armpit and the dots change colour at different temperatures. They can be used while the child is asleep and are disposable or re-usable for a certain period of time.

An alternative safe method to this is the ear thermometer which measures the infrared heat emission from the eardrum.
