PUBLIC NOTICES WATER RESTRICTIONS ADVISORY LEVEL 2, CLERMONT EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 5 Isaac Regional Council advises Clermont residents that Level 2 Water Restrictions have come into effect as from Friday, 5 October 2018. Current storage in Theresa Creek Dam, which supplies the local water treatment plant, is presently more than 1.25 metres below spillway level, which is the trigger for Level 2 water restrictions.

PARTIAL TEMPORARY CLOSURE OF CENTENARY PARK, CLERMONT Isaac Regional Council advises that Centenary Park will be partially closed from:
Tuesday, October 9 Until further notice Part of the park is surrounded by temporary fencing to isolate a roost of up to 4,000 little red flying foxes that have recently arrived. The roost is away from residential backyards, in the trees on the south bank of Hoods Lagoon (corner of Capella and Lime streets).
Council will continue to monitor the flying fox roost and will provide the community with updates once a course of action is established. Earlier this year Council trimmed some trees in the park to try and discourage flying foxes from roosting in the area. We are currently reviewing whether this has had any effect on the current flying fox colony. We are also seeking feedback to help develop a Statement of Management Intent for managing flying foxes.
WATER RESTRICTIONS ADVISORY FOR MOBILE TANKER USAGE AT CLERMONT Isaac Regional Council advises residents in Clermont that water restrictions are in place and that mobile tankers require an exemption to fill from a standpipe.
If you see a tanker filling from a standpipe please note the registration number of the vehicle and report it to Council for investigation.

CR LYN’S COLUMN Thank goodness I have got some time to finally get my column done. It is Saturday afternoon and I am sitting in the office and sweating my butt off. If I could find the air conditioner remote I would probably turn it on. I have lots of things to talk about but I think I should write a list so that I don’t just waffle on. Ornabella’s opening was a real privilege for me to do and I believe it is being well supported. Can’t say enough about the chocolate wafer biscuits that are sold there, they are great. I have convinced myself they are good for you, so am just eating accordingly. After all, if you buy them from a wellness shop they have to be good for you, don’t they? Went to the Battle of the Mines football day with my great friend and relation Marg Schifcofske to spend a few hours. Eight hours on and we were still sitting in the grandstand and enjoying every moment (definitely will be taking a cushion next time). The condition of our ovals and grounds was praised by everyone, both locals and all of the visitors that I spoke to. Wish I could have got to the Peace Pole plantings. The Mayor informed me it was a fantastic event and I would’ve loved to have been there, but it was Talwood’s 100-year school celebration. All of my siblings spent some of their primary school years there so Kris, Charlie and his wife Helen and myself travelled the 830km to attend the weekend event. Talwood is situated on the Queensland-NSW border and is only 90km from Goondiwindi. We did a quick trip into Goondi and did a fair bit of reminiscing. We were all born there and the hospital actually sits on the bank of the river which just happens to be the border. Came close to being a Cockroach. Could not get over how fantastic the town looked as they had not long ago had some decent rain. It was reassuring to see that somewhere got some and that it has not forgotten how to rain all together. Actually the country side from about St George did not look to bad at all.
Got back late Sunday afternoon and I don’t think I have stopped since. Axel looks at me like I have abandoned him and actually makes me feel a bit guilty. He plays on this a bit because he knows he gets more treats out of me. Council went for a bus tour and we got to see a solar farm, mine site and proposed meatworks site. Did not think I would ever see the day that I wore steel capped boots, hi-vis jacket, hard hat and safety goggles, but there you go, a first time for everything. All of this just to be able to do the bus trip, but rules are rules. We had our annual Council staff gathering in Clermont late September. Penny’s Cafe did the catering for this event and I can’t praise her and her staff enough. They did a wonderful job and made sure everyone was well fed. Glenden was the destination for our monthly meeting in September. It is such a pretty town but like everywhere it could do with a decent deluge of rain. An open lunch invitation was given to the town and I have to say that I didn’t shut up talking to the residents for the whole lunch period. I hope everyone remembers that water restrictions are in place so let’s all do the right thing. Well it is just about time for me to have a cuppa and a chocolate wafer biscuit (that are really good for you) and give Axel yet another treat. Until next time........ Lyn

WHAT IS A USI NUMBER? CONTRIBUTED BY LOU POWER
Your Unique Student Identifier (USI) is a government requirement when you undertake any nationally recognised training and you will be asked to provide it to the training organisation delivering the course to you before it begins. You may already have a USI if you been enrolled in or undertaken any nationally recognised training in the past, or you may have one that you created a while ago and forgotten about it if you have not used it recently. You only ever need one USI. It is just like a tax file number – unique to you and yours for life. Once you have created your USI number, keep it in a secure place or save it to your phone/device for future reference. The USI is a reference number made up of ten numbers and letters that: • creates a secure online record of your recognised training and qualifications gained in Australia, from all training providers you undertake recognised training with •
will give you access to your training records and transcripts
•
can be accessed online, anytime and anywhere
•
is free and easy to create
Who needs a USI and why? If you are a new or continuing student undertaking nationally recognised training, you need a USI in order to receive your qualification or statement of attainment. If you don’t have a USI you will not receive your qualification or statement of attainment.
Your USI will give you access to an online record of the training you have done since 1 January 2015. You will also be able to produce a comprehensive transcript of your training. This can be used when applying for a job, seeking a credit transfer or demonstrating prerequisites when undertaking further training. Not sure if you have a USI? Go to www.usi.gov.au and choose the student option and then select the relevant option from the list shown below: You will need to have your driver’s licence and/or Medicare card to verify your identity when accessing the student site. •

HEALTH, FITNESS AND SPORTS NEWS MAD ABOUT FITNESS Contact: 0448 007 263 Address: 41 James Road All classes and open gym are $15. GUT AND BUTT BLAST: is a target class that focuses on strengthening and toning the nine core divisions of the abdominal plane, simultaneously blasting the three muscles of the buttocks, hamstrings and quadriceps. This will increase fat metabolism at rest and help slim and tone those problematic areas. Although not targeted, general whole body conditioning applies and while challenging, is more than suitable for any fitness level. METAPWR: is a fast moving circuit, using moves that need strength, speed and power. All MetaPWR workouts use the entire body, involving your upper and lower body and core muscles. Muscle is metabolically active tissue, so the more muscles you work the more calories you burn. The more calories you burn, the more productive your workouts will be and the faster you will lose fat.
LET’S LIFT: this program has been designed to target the eight large muscle groups in a 45 minutes whole body workout. This is achieved through the use of barbell and dumbbell weights. This class is suitable for all fitness levels. CIRCUIT TRAINING: this is a form of body conditioning or resistance training using high-intensity/low-intensity aerobic energy. It targets strength building and muscular endurance. An exercise ‘circuit’ is one completion of all prescribed exercises in the program. It is highly enjoyable and recommended to all levels of fitness. METAFIT: this is a 30 minutes bodyweight training system that gets results! It is a functional and effective, metabolic workout that will change the way you train. Created by a former Royal Marine Commando, Metafit combines the latest HIIT techniques with traditional ‘old school’ bodyweight exercises to set the metabolism on fire.
