The simple reason for leap year is that the earth revolves around the sun in approximately 365.25 days, and so to make sure that a calendar year is the same as a

tropical year (which is the period of earth's revolution), there

needs to be an extra day added every 4 years.

A trip to Port Augusta on 20th February proved very successful with a large number of locals attending a seminar on Lifestyle Living. Held at Ian’s Western Ho-tel, Brad, Gary, Annie and Kellie touched on all topics of Retirement Villages with the full attention of the patrons.

With many questions being asked, the most inter-esting feedback from the seminar was the current council rates they are paying. Some being as high as $100 a week for Council Rates alone.

OBITUARY

The mayor of New York has a daughter who's missing and in dan-ger. Detective Michael Bennett has a son who's in prison. The two strike a deal.

Bennett and the mayor have always had a tense relationship, but now the mayor sees in Bennett a discreet investigator with family worries of his own. Just one father helping another. The detective leaps into the case and sources lead him to a homicide in the Bronx. The victim has ties to a sophisticated hacking operation -- and also to the mayor's missing daughter, Natalie, a twenty-one-year-old computer prodigy. The murder is part of a serial killing spree, one with national security implications. And suddenly Bennett is at the cen-tre of a dangerous triangle anchored by NYPD, FBI, and a transnational criminal organization. Michael Bennett has always been an honourable man, but sometimes -- when the lives of innocents are at stake -- honour has to take a back seat. Survival comes first.

Sausage Roll Muffins

Page 3 ISSUE 22

225g (1 1/2 cups) self-raising flour

120g (1 1/2 cups) coarsely grated

cheddar

1 carrot, peeled, coarsely grated

1 large zucchini, coarsely grated

1/4 cup finely chopped fresh chives

250ml (1 cup) milk

Preheat oven to 200C/180C fan forced. Grease twelve 80ml (1/3 cup) muffin pans. Line the bases with baking paper. Sift the flour into a large bowl. Add the cheddar, carrot, zucchini and chives. Stir to combine. Make a well in the centre. Combine the milk and egg in a jug then pour into the well. Gently mix until just com-bined. Divide the mixture among prepared muffin pans. Cut each sausage into 6 even piec-es. Roll each piece into a ball. Press a meatball into the top of each muffin mixture. Bake for 20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into a muffin comes out clean. Set aside in the pans for 3 minutes to cool slightly before transferring to a wire rack. Serve warm or cold.

"Sixty is the worst age to be," said the 60-year-old... "You always feel like you have to pee. And most of the time, you stand at the toilet and nothing comes out!" he continued. "Ah, that's nothing'," said the 70-year-old. "When you're seventy, you can't even poo any-more. You take laxatives, then you sit on the toilet all day and nothing' comes out!" "Actually," said the 80-year-old, "80 is the worst age of all!" "Do you have trouble peeing too?" asked the 60-year-old. "No, not really. I pee every morning at 6:00. I pee like a racehorse on a flat rock; no problem at all." "Do you have trouble pooing?" asked the 70-year-old. "No, I poo every morning at 6:30." With great exasperation, the 60-year-old said, "Let me get this straight. You pee every morn-ing at 6:00 and poo every morning at 6:30. So what's so tough about being 80?" "I don't wake up until 7:00"
