$1.2 BILLION WORTH OF HOUSING FOR MULGOA

Mirvac has announced its latest residential masterplanned community, Everdene, Mulgoa – a landmark development set to deliver approximately 1,200 homes, along with expansive parks and active open spaces, in the rapidly growing Nepean region.

Valued at $1.2 billion, the community will provide muchneeded housing to support the expanding population of western Sydney.

Strategically located only minutes from the upcoming Western Sydney International Airport and the Aerotropolis precinct, Everdene, Mulgoa is primed for success and will offer almost 4,000 residents unparalleled access to tens of thousands of new employment opportunities and economic growth in the area.

Stuart Penklis, Mirvac’s CEO of Development, Residential and Commercial Mixed-Use, said Everdene, Mulgoa is set to become the residential heart of western Sydney, offering a rare opportunity to live in a community that brings together a broad range if lot sizes, quality homes, expansive green spaces, and a lifestyle designed for the future.

“We’re proud to introduce Everdene, Mulgoa – a community that will truly define modern living in western Sydney. Set in one of the most exciting growth corridors in the country, the community combines the comfort and connection families are looking for with the natural beauty and everyday convenience they value,” Penklis said.

“With the Western Sydney International Airport set to open in 2026 and key parts of the Aerotropolis on track for completion

by 2027, residents will be at the heart of a once-in-a-generation transformation. This is more than a new address – it’s a gateway to opportunity, lifestyle, and long-term value.”

“IT’S A GATEWAY TO OPPORTUNITY, LIFESTYLE AND LONG-TERM VALUE”

With family at its heart, Everdene, Mulgoa will feature a junior cricket oval and AFL field, two full-sized football (soccer) pitches, tennis and basketball courts, a children’s playground, and walking paths that connect to native bushland corridors. Mirvac’s General Manager for Residential Development in

NSW, Warwick Bible, said that at the heart of Everdene, Mulgoa will be a proposed community centre and café, designed to serve as a vibrant gathering place for locals and families.

“Overlooking the proposed nature play zone and water playground, this space will be for families to come together, connect, and engage with the wider community. It’s more than just a facility – it will offer residents a welcoming environment to relax, socialise, and enjoy everything this incredible neighbourhood will offer,” Bible said. The first release of land lots is scheduled for mid-September 2025. Lot sizes will range from 300sqm to 700sqm, with larger rural lots starting from 2,000sqm. Many lots will offer a ‘bring your own builder’ option to encourage flexibility and home customisation.

EGGS ARE BACK ON THE MENU CUT AND PASTE EVOLUTION!

If you’ve been told to avoid eggs because of high cholesterol, you’re not alone. For decades, eggs were considered off-limits for heart health. The advice was simple: steer clear, and you’d protect your cholesterol levels. But recent research is challenging that long-standing belief.

A 2024 study presented at the American College of Cardiology’s annual meeting found that people consuming up to 12 eggs a week did not experience higher cholesterol compared to those who ate fewer than two. Even more surprisingly, this held true for individuals with diabetes and high cholesterol – groups typically advised to limit dietary cholesterol. The study suggests that eggs, in moderation, are far less harmful to blood cholesterol than once thought.

As a dietitian, I meet many clients who feel confused – or even guilty – about enjoying eggs for

breakfast. Here’s the truth: the cholesterol in food has far less impact on blood cholesterol than previously believed. Instead, the main dietary culprits affecting heart health are saturated fats, trans fats, and overall eating patterns. Eggs are also nutritionally valuable. They provide high-quality protein, essential vitamins such as B12 and D, and antioxidants like lutein and zeaxanthin, which support eye health. Beyond nutrients, eggs are affordable, versatile, and highly satisfying, making them an excellent choice for many people. The key is to consider the whole plate,

not just one food. If you’re managing high cholesterol, eggs can absolutely be included in a heart-healthy diet. Pair them with fibre-rich foods such as wholegrain toast, sautéed spinach, or avocado. Cooking methods matter too – poached or boiled eggs are better options, and swapping butter for olive oil can help reduce saturated fat intake.

The bottom line? Eggs can safely be on the menu – even if your cholesterol is high. With balance, variety, and a focus on whole foods, they can be part of a nourishing, heart-smart lifestyle that supports both enjoyment and longterm health.

My daughter was frustrated that Windows only stores one clipboard item and asked if tools were allowing multiple entries. For decades, Cut, Copy, and Paste have been crucial for moving text. Yet, Windows’ clipboard had an evident weakness: it only held one item at a time.

Windows 11 introduced Clipboard History, letting users save up to 25 items and sync across devices. However, it’s not enabled by default. When I discovered it, my workflow improved. Now, I keep 10 daily items ready to

paste. There are a couple of ways to activate it. The easiest way is to use a shortcut Key.

1. Press Windows + V.

2. If Clipboard History is off, you’ll see a prompt. (see picture)

3. Click Turn on.

It can also be enabled by going to

• Start  Settings  System  Clipboard  Clipboard History  On

One other thing I would suggest doing is syncing the Clipboard History across devices. Unfortunately, there is no shortcut for this.

• Start  Settings  System  Clipboard  Clipboard History across your devices  On

To activate the Clipboard History, you press Windows + V and click on the item you want to paste.

Windows 11’s Clipboard History allows users to:

• Store up to 25 items (text, HTML, small images).

• Pin frequently used snippets for persistence.

• Sync across devices using a Microsoft account.

The Experts

• Clear history or disable sync for privacy. While the Clipboard History tool doesn’t have all the bells and whistles that commercial tools offer, it will work just fine for most people. The tool additionally allows you to pin items in your clipboard history permanently. It also has tabs for Emojis, GIFs and Kaomojis (text-based emoticons). Select a tab, scroll through the sizable selection, and then select it to paste it into your document.

If you do need more features, search online. Some of these tools include ClipClip, Ditto, CopyQ, Clipboard Master and Clipdiary. I have used ClipClip before and found it easy and intuitive. Worth a go!

FINANCIAL IMPACT OF AGED CARE DECISIONS

Australians are living longer so it is becoming more prevalent for people to enter an aged care facility in their later years.

For anyone who has been through this process, you’ll know that the aged care system is complicated. Furthermore, decisions around aged care also impact on Centrelink means testing. I would recommend seeking advice before commencing.

The first step is the Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) evaluation. This can be performed by any health care professional who is a member of the ACAT. This is to determine the eligibility for care.

Once you are determined eligible the next step is finding a home. There is a government website myagedcared.gov.au that provides a list of all aged care facilities, their costs and a brief description of their rooms and services. This should assist in finding an appropriate facility.

The financial aspects of the

aged care facility are where the complexity lies. Upon entering an aged care facility there is an upfront accommodation payment. This is referred to as the retirement bond. This payment is means tested, and in some cases only a contribution will be required, not the whole amount. This retirement bond is refundable. In the event that you are assessed to pay a bond, but are not able to do so, you will be required to pay an ongoing daily payment. This payment is not refundable.

The ongoing cost has three components. A basic daily fee, a means tested care fee and additional daily fee. The basic daily fee is the same for everyone and is currently $49.07 a day. The additional daily fee is for additional services and is to pay for benefits or small luxuries. Foxtel subscription would be an example of an additional service. Some facilities have a suite of included services for a set fee, others allow you to choose what

additional benefits you would like and charge accordingly.

The means tested care fee is based on a combination of an income and asset test. Unlike Centrelink, where the income and assets are tested separately with the lower result counting, the aged care means tests aggregates both the income and assets tests combining the assessment for each.

Further complicating the means test is the treatment of family home; the home is not

counted for means testing if an acceptable person is remaining in the home. Normally this is the spouse, but also includes carers and dependent children. The money used for the bond does not count for means testing.

A good financial planner will be able to assist in being as efficient as possible in arranging your finances to limit age care costs and maximise Centrelink entitlements. The key is to seek advice before commencing the aged care process.

EXPLAINER: COMMON EYE PROBLEMS IN DOGS

Just like people, dogs rely heavily on their vision to navigate the world. Healthy eyes are vital for their safety, confidence, and overall quality of life. Unfortunately, a range of eye problems can develop in dogs –some minor and easily treated, others more serious and potentially leading to blindness. Recognising the signs early and seeking veterinary advice is key to protecting your dog’s vision. Here are some of the most common eye conditions seen in dogs:

Conjunctivitis – Conjunctivitis is one of the most frequent eye problems in dogs. Signs include redness, inflammation and discharge. It may be triggered by bacterial or viral infections, or environmental irritants such as smoke or pollen. Because it can be contagious, prompt veterinary treatment is important.

Cherry eye – Dogs have a third eyelid that helps protect and lubricate the eye. In some young dogs and certain breeds, this eyelid can prolapse, creating a red, swollen lump in the inner corner of the eye – commonly called ‘cherry eye’. Surgical correction is often required to prevent long-term problems.

Cataracts – As dogs age, the lens of the eye

may become cloudy, resulting in cataracts. Mild cataracts might cause only slight vision impairment, but severe cases can lead to blindness. In addition, cataracts can predispose dogs to painful conditions such as glaucoma. Surgery to replace the lens is the only long-term solution.

Glaucoma – Glaucoma is caused by poor drainage of fluid from the eye, leading to a dangerous build-up of pressure. This condition is extremely painful and can cause irreversible blindness if not treated quickly. Symptoms include a cloudy or bulging eye, dilated pupils and tearing. Treatment may involve medication or surgery.

Entropion – Entropion occurs when the eyelids roll inward, causing eyelashes or surrounding hairs to rub against the cornea. This leads to irritation, excessive tearing, and sometimes corneal damage. Certain breeds, especially short-nosed and large dogs, are more prone. Surgery is often needed for permanent correction.

Dry eye – Also known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca, dry eye happens when the tear glands don’t produce enough tears. This results in irritation, thick discharge and sometimes

painful corneal ulcers. Treatment usually involves artificial tears and medicated drops.

Corneal ulcers – These are injuries to the outer surface of the eye, often caused by trauma or ongoing dry eye. Dogs with corneal ulcers may squint, paw at their eye, or produce watery discharge. Left untreated, ulcers can worsen and threaten vision.

Eye problems in dogs can progress quickly. If you notice redness, squinting, unusual discharge, or changes in your pet’s eyes, contact your vet immediately. Early diagnosis and treatment not only relieve discomfort but can prevent permanent vision loss.

If you’re concerned about your dog’s eyes, call our experienced veterinary team at Orchard Hils Veterinary Hospital on 4737 2027 for advice and treatment.

AQUARIUS

JANUARY 21 TO FEBRUARY 19

This week Saturn puts stress on financial matters, so it’s not a good time to borrow funds, invest, go on a shopping spree or lend money to others. You’re liable to make financial decisions based on your emotions, which are fluctuating wildly. Especially on the weekend, when the Venus/Uranus square boosts your tempestuous side and you do something surprising involving marriage, family or friendships. Whatever happens, expect the unexpected!

TAURUS

APRIL 21 TO MAY 21

Are you stuck in a rut? Uranus shakes up your comfort zone … which could make you feel confused and uncomfortable! Try to view any upset constructively, as it forces you to view a current situation from a totally different perspective. And you may find a financial matter or a domestic project requires much more planning than you originally thought. That’s OK. Concentrate on enjoying the long and winding journey, rather than just focusing on the destination.

LEO

JULY 23 TO AUGUST 23

The week leads up to the Sun/Saturn square on Sunday, so motivation will be low and impatience high. And the more you try to assert your authority and independence, the more stressful and frustrating things will be. Just remember – you can’t be the boss all of the time. Calm down and recalibrate Lions! If you are more consultative, then the week will run more smoothly. Tuesday is the best day to catch up with like-minded folk in your local community.

SCORPIO

OCTOBER 24 TO NOVEMBER 22

With Mars hibernating in your seclusion zone, do you feel as if you’re going nowhere? The stars are testing your stamina and patience, so don’t give up. Friday’s Mercury/Pluto trine helps you tap into your bountiful reserves of inner strength as you pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and set a new course (especially involving home and family). Your motto is from birthday great, Leonard Cohen, “There is a crack in everything, that’s how the light gets in.”

PISCES

FEBRUARY 20 TO MARCH 20

An unreliable friend or a questionable acquaintance could lead you astray, so keep your realism radar set on high and avoid getting caught up in dubious schemes (especially involving finances). Only accept the advice of people who you know well and can really trust. Venus visits your relationship zone from Friday until October 13. Attached Fish – find special ways to romance your sweetheart. Singles – look for love with a versatile Virgo or a caring Cancer.

GEMINI

MAY 22 TO JUNE 21

From Monday to Thursday, you could feel doubtful or disappointed as Saturn and Neptune dull motivation and confuse communication. Then your confidence starts to return, as Friday’s Mercury/Uranus and Mercury/ Pluto trines boost innovative thinking and creative ideas. Personal projects, holidays and friendships are also highlighted. Your motto comes from movie icon Lauren Bacall, “Imagination is the highest kite one can fly.”

VIRGO

AUGUST 24 TO SEPTEMBER 23

Friday looks lively, as the Mercury/ Uranus/Pluto links propel you into an exciting new world of possibilities. You’re pursuing a challenging personal project with extra creativity, passion and purpose, but a partnership or friendship requires more clarity. Avoiding complex issues won’t make them magically disappear, so it’s important to communicate your intentions clearly. Especially when it comes to a romantic relationship or a joint venture.

SAGITTARIUS

NOVEMBER 23 TO DECEMBER 21

Most Archers are adventurous, free-wheeling folk. But life will be a bit more restrictive this week (especially at home and/or work) as disciplined Saturn opposes Mercury and the Sun. So smart Sagittarians will think before you speak, and plan before you act! Tuesday is the most social day of the week, as you visit a friend or catch up with your extended peer group. And then Friday favours innovative joint ventures and local community connections.

HOROSCOPES

ARIES

MARCH 21 TO APRIL 20

Tuesday is the best day of the week, as the Venus/Mars link boosts romance, flirting, friendship and creativity. Then Wednesday through to Sunday looks tricky, as Saturn puts stress on a work relationship or Neptune confuses a personal partnership. Life will be easier if you communicate clearly and accept personal responsibilities with a smile. Your motto is from movie star (and birthday great) Sophia Loren, “Always be surrounded by people that you like.”

CANCER

JUNE 22 TO JULY 22

It’s going to be a confusing week so try to keep your Crab cool. Avoid spreading unsubstantiated gossip and blurting out things that you’ll later regret. Take the time to check the facts thoroughly. The more discreet and diplomatic you are, the better the week will be, but it’s definitely a delicate balancing act. If you are too obliging and say ‘yes’ to everyone and everything, then you’ll be overwhelmed and find you’ve bitten off more than you can comfortably chew!

LIBRA

S EPTEMBER 24 TO OCTOBER 23

The overall message is patience, as the Sun and Venus visit your solitude zone. Rest, relaxation, reflection and rejuvenation are just what the doctor ordered. If you look to the future with a positive attitude, then fabulous opportunities will manifest – eventually. With Mars and Mercury in your sign, you must stand up for what you believe in. Be inspired by actress Jada Pinkett Smith (who turns 54 on Thursday), “Don’t allow anyone to dictate who you are.”

CAPRICORN

DECEMBER 22 TO JANUARY 20

Tuesday’s Venus/Mars vibes favour researching a topic that has always fascinated you and socialising with work colleagues. On Wednesday and Thursday, Saturn (your ruling planet) opposes Mercury, and then on Saturday, Saturn opposes the Sun. So you’re in for a challenging time and extra responsibilities, especially involving family, education, travel and/or communication. Clever Capricorns will roll up your sleeves, put your head down, and get to work.
