`Residential School Equity Grant’ 2011

Residential School Equity Grant (RSEG) August/September 2011 Residential

School Period

The Office of Student Services are offering the RSEG to students studying distance

education mode subjects, who are required to attend compulsory residential schools in Aug/Sep 2011. The Grant is in the form of a subsidy towards on-campus accommodation* at Bathurst, Wagga Wagga, Orange and Dubbo. For the Albury**, Canberra and Sydney residential schools a subsidy towards the costs of off-campus accommodation is offered.

Applications are now open and close at midnight on the 12 July 2011. Further information on eligibility, guidelines and to apply (online), please visit the: RSEG website. Please note applying for the grant alone does not secure your accommodation; you will need to book your on camps accommodation

via residences website at http://www.csu.edu.au/division/studserv/my-life/residences/de/booking

If, after reading the RSEG guidelines and information on the website at http://www.csu.edu.au/division/studserv/my-studies/equity/rses, if you require further assistance, please contact the RSEG Co-ordinator, on 02 6051 9435 or [email protected]

BOOK YOUR ACCOMMODATION NOW IF YOU WISH TO SECURE THE EARLY BIRD RATE (ENDS 29 July 2011)

Regards CSU Scholarship Office

* Value of RSEG is $72 per night and students are responsible for booking their own accommodation prior to the Early Bird cut-off to avoid having to pay any “gap” fees.. Student Services advise that unfortunately total nights available for the grant are of a finite quantity and unfortunately it is unlikely that all nights requested will be granted. Students are responsible for paying for the remainder of their accommodation balance prior to the completion of the Residential School. Students may book cottage accommodation instead of Halls of Residence BUT will be liable to pay the difference.Photo: http://www.csu.edu.au/division/studserv/my-life/residences/home

Gardening wi th Krysta l

If you've got a patch of good soil and are not sure what to do with it, why not have a

winter garden!! You can plant peas, potatoes, broad beans, beetroot, broccoli, cabbage, spinach and Brussels sprouts now which are easy to grow and should last all Winter. Spring onions and garlic can also be very use-ful to grow in winter. If your short on space, these could be put into pots instead to save space.

A lovely winter flower is the daffodil. They’re best suited to cooler districts in the southern states of Australia. Daffodils are grown from bulbs and are happy in full-sun or part-shade, but don’t plant them in dense shade or they won’t flower, also they are lovely in the ground or a pot. They can be cut and placed in a vase indoors as well.

Next month - All about Composting!

Thanks,Krystal Brosz :)


Richard Black By Richard Black Environment correspondent, BBC News

Coral and fish Coral reefs are subject to "multiple stressors" that could destroy many within a human generation.

The oceans are in a worse state than previously suspected, according to an expert panel of scientists.

In a new report, they warn that ocean life is "at high risk of entering a phase of extinction of marine species unprecedented in human history".

They conclude that issues such as over-fishing, pollution and climate change are acting together in ways that have not previously been recognised.

The impacts, they say, are already affecting humanity.

The panel was convened by the International Programme on the State of the Ocean (IPSO), and brought together experts from different disciplines, including coral reef ecologists, toxicologists, and fisheries scientists.

Its report will be formally released later this week.

"The findings are shocking," said Alex Rogers, IPSO's scientific director and professor of conservation biology at Oxford University.

“As we considered the cumulative effect of what humankind does to the oceans, the implications became far worse than we had individually realised.

“We’ve sat in one forum and spoken to each other about what we’re seeing, and we’ve ended up with a picture showing that almost right across the board we're seeing changes that are happening faster than we'd thought, or in ways that we didn't expect to see for hundreds of years."

These "accelerated" changes include melting of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, sea level rise, and release of methane trapped in the sea bed.Fast changes "The rate of change is vastly exceeding what we were expecting even a couple of years ago," said Ove Hoegh-Guldberg, a coral specialist from the University of Queensland in Australia.

Fish at market Some species are already fished way beyond their limits - and may also be affected by other threats

"So if you look at almost everything, whether it's fisheries in temperate zones or coral reefs or Arctic sea ice, all of this is undergoing changes, but at a much faster rate than we had thought."

But more worrying than this, the team noted, are the ways in which different issues act synergistically to increase threats to marine life.

World’s Oceans in ‘shocking’ decline


Some pollutants, for example, stick to the surfaces of tiny plastic particles that are now found in the ocean bed.

This increases the amounts of these pollutants that are consumed by bottom-feeding fish.

Plastic particles also assist the transport of algae from place to place, increasing the occurrence of toxic algal blooms - which are also caused by the influx of nutrient-rich pollution from agricultural land.

In a wider sense, ocean acidification, warming, local pollution and overfishing are acting together to increase the threat to coral reefs - so much so that three-quarters of the world's reefs are at risk of severe decline.

“ The challenges are vast; but unlike previous generations, we know what now needs to happen”

Life on Earth has gone through five "mass extinction events" caused by events such as asteroid impacts; and it is often said that humanity's combined impact is causing a sixth such event.

The IPSO report concludes that it is too early to say definitively.

But the trends are such that it is likely to happen, they say - and far faster than any of the previous five.

"What we're seeing at the moment is unprecedented in the fossil record - the environmental changes are much more rapid," Professor Rogers told BBC News.

"We've still got most of the world's biodiversity,

but the actual rate of extinction is much higher [than in past events] - and what we face is certainly a globally significant extinction event."

The report also notes that previous mass extinction events have been associated with trends being observed now - disturbances of the carbon cycle, and acidification and hypoxia (depletion of oxygen) of seawater.

Levels of CO2 being absorbed by the oceans are already far greater than during the great extinction of marine species 55 million years ago (during the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum), it concludes.The report's conclusions will be presented at UN headquarters in New York this week, when government delegates begin discussions on reforming governance of the oceans.In the long run, greenhouse gas emissions must be cut to conserve ocean life, the report concludes

IPSO's immediate recommendations include: * stopping exploitative fishing now, with special emphasis on the high seas where currently there is little effective regulation

* mapping and then reducing the input of pollutants including plastics, agricultural fertilisers and human waste * making sharp reductions in greenhouse gas emissions.

World’s Oceans in ‘shocking’ decline


Carbon dioxide levels are now so high, it says, that ways of pulling the gas out of the atmosphere need to be researched urgently - but not using techniques, such as iron fertilisation, that lead to more CO2 entering the oceans.

"We have to bring down CO2 emissions to zero within about 20 years," Professor Hoegh-Guldberg told BBC News.

"If we don't do that, we're going to see steady acidification of the seas, heat events that are wiping out things like kelp forests and coral reefs, and we'll see a very different ocean."

Another of the report's authors, Dan Laffoley, marine chair of the World Commission on Protected Areas and an adviser to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), admitted the challenges were vast.

"But unlike previous generations, we know what now needs to happen," he said.

"The time to protect the blue heart of our planet is now."

Meet a DE Student.

Hey, I'm Courtney Bourke and I'm 19.I'm from Bathurst, NSW and have lived there

all my life.

I am doing a bachelor of horticulture (first year student) and am in my second year out of school.

My interest began with gardening at home, I especially like growing vegetables. Have been making lots of vegetable soup lately!

After leaving school I did two tafe courses which were art and horticulture (both cert 2), I have always liked art but it was horticulture I really I wanted to continue with.

I soon discovered the bachelor of horticulture offered by CSU so here I am now! I was never the smartest kid at school, but now I feel unstoppable!

When I was younger I wanted to own a business, I also wanted to be a florist. I have never actually had a job but am aspiring to own a nursery one day!Anyway, there's more to me than just plants!My pets include four chooks, three dogs and two cockatiels. I absolutely love my pets.

I also enjoy baking, Zumba (dance fitness), chilling with friends, reading and doing yoga. I also go bushwalking and bird watching from time to time.

The best thing about studying distance ed is that I can study at home and drink as much coffee as I want!

I appreciate the support on the forums and meeting up with some of you at residential schools,

Love to all, Courtney (-: Here's my most embarrasing

moment.

I was on my way to tafe and I had a thermos of coffee, to stop it spilling in the car I held it

between my legs.As it turned out it still leaked. All over my trousers!When I got to tafe I had to explain to everyone as to why my pants were wet!I soon learnt how to seal my thermos properly!

Reflections on “An Introduction to Christian Theology”

The Course

Charles Sturt University offers a number of degrees, diplomas and certificates in Christian

theology, ranging from the University Certificate through to a Doctorate in Philosophy. A course required by all of them (or its equivalent prior learning) is CSU’s THL111 – An Introduction to Christian Theology. This year Dr Heather Thomson helped guide a class of more than 100 participants through.

This is a “base” course for many streams. There is the “pastoral” stream for those who may be discerning a calling to the ministry or Christian service, the “theological” stream for those interested in the questions that “God Talk” or “theology” can raise and vocational streams, one example being “Christian Counselling”. Of course, any student with an interest in theology whose academic programme allows its inclusion as a minor or “one off” subject may also take the course.

Audience

Because THL111 is one of the foundation courses, those taking it come from a broad audience. In 2011’s residential we had two currently ordained priests increasing their knowledge, a paid lay worker discerning her goal in Christian ministry, the director of Anglicare in Canberra/Goulburn

and a young, Christian youth worker whose enthusiasm for the subject was shared by us all. Amongst the others we had a person who wanted to know more about Christian theology, fitting this course into a minor stream, a person whose main role was a medical doctor but who also led a small home church now acknowledged by her local bishops.

Those participants not able to make it to the residential were from just as broad backgrounds. When we were all concerned about an imminent essay, one participant mentioned that he may need an extension because “his home strip [in Israel near one of the contested borders] had just been bombed and I am under a bomb alert!” I am certain this person got his essay in on time however I am sure, had he submitted a request, it may have been Heather’s first extension request “because my home town is under a bomb threat.”

Structure and Text BookFirstly, the course is about Christian theology. Although Judaism, Islam and other religions have their own theologies (and some overlap with Christian theology), CSU’s courses limit themselves to Christian theology. Thus, CSU’s courses are decidedly Christian in nature – they are not degrees in Religious Studies .

Theology is “talking words” about “God” – from the Greek “theos (God)” and “logos (word)”. The course is an introduction to the “God-Talk” about the God that Christians believe and furthermore it limits itself to orthodox Christianity. By orthodox, we do not mean only the Greek, Russian or Orthodox Church’s theology but the theology accepted by most of the Christian Church’s today as summarised in the Nicene and Apostolic creeds. Gnosticism, Arianism and other “types” of early beliefs about Christ or the Christian God are mentioned but only in relation to the orthodox Christianity which still exists to this day.

There are different ways to “do” Christian theology. * One can study its history and ask “why” certain people, groups or even sects thought about God in one particular way. * One can study theology in the context of Christian pastoral care. *One can treat theology as a purely academic

THL111 Residential ClassDavid is in the yellow top.


.. Reflections on “An Introduction to Christian Theology”

and scholarly exercise. THL111, though, takes the .“systematic” approach to theology.

As might be expected there are many areas in theology to discuss and learn about. For example, there is the person of Christ (Christology), the work of the Holy Spirit (Pneumatology) and the Doctrine of the Church (Ecclesiology). Whole libraries have been written on any one of these subjects.

Systematic theology attempts to develop a constructive, useful and comprehensive articulation of the Christian faith. It is also called “doctrinal” or “constructive” theology.

Naturally, this means that many scholarly tomes on systematic theology are huge or somewhat heavily abbreviated. CSU uses Daniel Migliore’s “Faith Seeking Understanding – An Introduction to Christian Theology” to guide students through the vast teachings and thoughts in theology.

At a little more than 400 pages, this is – believe it or not – a medium sized tome. Nonetheless, Migliore crams a surprising amount of information to digest within its covers. As for its contents, Migliore takes a non-denominational approach to the subject that is clearly influenced by the reformed theologies of Barth and Calvin.

The book can be challenging and we are certain that any reader will find parts where it challenges one’s personal beliefs, the beliefs of one’s community or urges one to learn more about one of its subjects or statements.

The course follows the book’s structure closely and coupled with the study guide’s guidance, the recommended readings and one’s own research, the student should get a reasonable overview of

the main strands within Christian theology.

SummaryCharles Sturt University, in association with St Mark’s National Theological Centre and others, offers the introductory THL111 – An Introduction to Christian Theology. The course attracts and appeals to a broad range of people who may be studying the course towards a pastoral degree, scholarly degree or simply to find out more about theology. Taking a systematic approach to Christian theology, it guides the students along with Migliore’s “Faith Seeking Understanding”. Although Christian theology is a huge subject which has existed in some form or another ever since people could talk about the Christian God, students should expect to have learned the major strands within Christian theology after having completed this course.

Okay, what to do with that 'Pringles' container!!!. To overcome my guilt of eating this delicious chip, I have turned the container into a desk caddy.

You need1 pringles tin1 sachet of silica stuff you find in a tortilla packettissue paper or serviettes, pretty paper, any paper really...phonebook, newspaper, novel, notes !cardboard, corrogated is betterinside structure of fake flowerspaint, gluebradsspiral bound notebook... the spiral partplastic cupstrawair drying clay

MethodPaint container with gesso.Once dry stick down tissue paper or serviette, what ever paper that takes your fancy.Add corrogated cardboard in chunks, just tear and stick any way you like. I used cardboard I had pre-viously used to paint another project. You could paint the cardboard, or leave itAttach flower insert to side of container. I used air drying clay to do this, but glue or a brad will work. You could also add fake flowers, or any thingamebobbits you like.Paint the container how ever you like. I used a straw, which I blew paint down...and went for a splat-tered effect.Take the spiral off the notebook, make a circle to fit the container, add brads to the flat part of spiral to attach it to the tin. I used 10 brads to attach mine.Add the sachet to bottom of container.Add a plastic cup to the container, so the pens dont disappearFinally add clips, pegs, whatever, to the hooks formed by the spiral bound spring.

The spring makes for a good place to hook up those pesky thumbdrives that seem to walk off of their own free will :)

These are photos of my daughter, Sophie. She was born 18th July 2010, 7 weeks premature, weighing

2195grams or 4 pounds 8 ounces. I had finished up at work on the Friday afternoon & she arrived on the Sunday night.

We spent three weeks in the Special Care Nursery at Toowoomba Base Hospital. Sophie spent the first week in an isolette & needed light therapy for jandice for 24hrs. She had to be fed by naso-gastro tube as she was too early to have properly developed her suck/swallow reflex.

She was 24hrs old before I got to hold her for the first time. While she was in the isolette there wasnt many opportunities for having cuddles so we make up for it now! She eventually learnt to feed though it wore her out after about 5mins, though now she is a very good eater!

As you can see she has come a long way from the tiny bub that she was to the happy cheeky little toddler she is now. She is now approximately 10kg & you would never know that she was an early arrival. Rebecca Janssen

From the Kitchen:RecipesVegan Vegetarian PieI cook by taste actually. I use only frozen vegetables because they are the

freshest. Some people aren't aware of this, but frozen veges are picked and blanched immediately, therefore holding in their nutrients, whereas 'fresh' veges from the shop or supermarket could be weeks old by the time they get to us and have lost a lot of their nutrients. Of course for those lucky enough to have a local market from local farmers, this scenario would be different, but I don't have that here at all times. I do however, cook pumpkin pieces since I can't eat raw pumpkin, but I only boil them until you can

only just spear a piece with a knife, don't want them mushy. Anyway, I use frozen 'Australian produce only' carrots, cauliflower, broccoli, peas and beans and place them in boiling water from my kettle. While they are sitting in the water, I place mushrooms and shallots into a pan with a couple of tablespoons of coconut oil, 2 teaspoons each of crushed garlic and ginger, and lightly cook them. When the mushies and shallots are almost cooked, I add two tins of light coconut cream., after adding the coconut cream, corn flour can be used to thicken the sauce. (this is when I have sufficient veges to make 2 pies). Then strain the veges and add everything together. I smear two glass pie dishes with lite nuttelex and line them with vegan puff pastry. Add the ingredients and cover with another sheet of pastry and the pies are ready to put into the oven. Mine only take about 30-40 minutes in an oven set on 220 degrees. The veges need to be not overcooked, so as they still retain their form. (I don't like mushy veges). There is one problem with these pies though, after you have had one slice, you want more! They are also nice cold! Enjoy! Lynda Staker (posted on an Australian Wildlife Network that I am a member of. Ed SS)

What I did in the semester break!

Just before the semester break I convinced my husband that he should take a couple of weeks off work to spend some quality time with me!!!! Little did he know that I had plans to put him to work, building a veggie patch :)

Where? - at home in Dairymans Plains which is a little part of the world located just outside of Cooma, NSW.

When? - during 2 weeks of the semester break.

How? - We built some raised garden beds using recycled hardwood and corrugated iron. We then built an enclosure type of area using sleepers and the same corrugated iron. Hopefully this enclosure will keep the kangaroo's out of the garden! Of course we then had to do some back-breaking shovelling to fill the raised beds and to also create mounds inside the enclosure. We made pathways out of pebbles between the mounds. In total, we shifted 8 cubic metres of beautiful soil and 3 cubic metres of riverstone pebbles. We put a bit of the soil around the outside of the enclosure and planted some lavendar and a green strappy looking plant (I can't for the life of me remember what it is actually called).

Why? - My motive? I'm sick to death of buying expensive, poor quality fruit & vegetables from the supposed "Fresh Food People" and other retailers in our town. There's nothing fresh about mouldy capsicums! So far we have planted strawberries, broad beans, snow peas, peas, onions, leeks, garlic, brocoli & cauliflower. We've got some raspberry canes & blueberry bushes arriving any day now!!!

Who with? - my gorgeous husband.

What would I rather have been doing? - At shovelling time, I would have preferred to be anywhere else!!! But to see the end product, there is nothing that I would rather have been doing. I can't wait for the warmer weather so that I can plant some more stuff!!! There's nothing better than a home grown tomato.........

Picture this: A warm, dark tropical night; the Pacific Ocean aboard the cruise ship the Fair

Princess all dressed up for formal night. I was standing at the back of the ship late that night watching the trail of white water as the propeller churned through the black velvet ocean.

My friends called out “Don’t Jump” (the Titanic had recently come out) and I walked up a level to join them. We all introduced ourselves and start-ed talking to the three guys that were standing there. I was hoping that he would walk me back to my cabin but he was hoping I’d come back up to talk to him.

We met each other on the stairs the next night and ended up sitting on the deck and talking through the night.

Our first kiss, his first ever, - me wishing it was my first,was with an ocean backdrop. I knew that nothing in my life would ever be the same again. We were inseparable for the rest of the cruise and married 8 months later.

I am blessed. I am totally and wholly loved and free to love that way in return. No, nothing has been the same since, but so much better. We cel-ebrate 13 years together on December 20, 2011.

Ocean TalesIn ce lebrat ion of World Ocean Day

by DE Students

I almost drowned at Cave Beach, Jervis Bay NSW

Swimming along, minding my own business, having a great bob up and down withthe waves. Suddenly I realised there wasn't any sand under my feet. I swam forwarda few metres back towards the shore and put my feet down again, still no sand.The waves dumped me under again and again, I got so tired. Too tired to be scared.I put all my strength into swimming back to-wards the shore, kept going despitebeing dumped, and eventually when I put my feet down I could feel the sand undermy feet. I got up on the shore and my head pounded and I felt very ill. I was swimming with mates but no-one saw me when we went back to our cabins and I drank entirely too much. Cured the headache too ;) It change me because I'm alot less cocky when it comes to swimming in the ocean or a river, anything with a current. I still get a bit nervous about swimming in the ocean, i don't go out much past waist height now.

What is your favourite ocean place? Underwater - Scuba Diving - Anywhere... off Harvey Bay was beautiful

When do you go there? Not often anymore...

Why do you go there? Because it is another world, get up close and personal with the en-vironment, watch the underwater world come alive...

What is the best thing about it? It is peaceful, there is no rushing, or stressing.. its just peace and wonderful colour...

Who do you like/wish you could share it with? I wish I could share this with my boy-friend as I think that he would enjoy it... al-though he claims that he doesn't know how to use a snorkel!

"Michael Rennie was illThe day the earth stood stillBut he told us where we stand.”...“And crawling on the planets faceSome insects called the human raceLost in timeAnd lost in spaceAnd meaning."

My favourite musical of all times, The Rocky Horror Show.

My parents paid for 6 of us to go the The New Arts Cinema in Glebe for my 16th birthday on a Tuesday night $2.50 each. I am sure that they didn’t know what the content was about but I fell madly in love with this show.

I have seen numerous versions since, yet never watched the movie right through. Just love it. The last time I went with 2 friends. One had never seen it before but Wayne and I knew every single word of every song and happily sang away.

It has gotten raunchier and raunchier as time progresses. Time less, a little bit sad but an experience for all of the senses.

There are many great organisations that assist you in volunteering in another country. This would be suchaneyeopeningexperience!

Some of the places where you could go:

Volunteering Overseas

Laos Working with children with English classes - based in the

town of Luang Prabang - as well as the work with the local community, when volunteering you also have the opportunity to enjoy sunsets from the top of Mount Phu Si, swimming in the Khuang Si Waterfalls, marveling at local temples, scenic boat trips up the Mekong to the Pak Ou Caves, trekking, rafting or taking an elephant tour.

Kenya -Volunteers will have the opportunity to assist local

community development projects, including teaching English as a foreign language and sustainable tourism programmes. Volunteers will live and work in the beautiful Shimoni Archipelago, off the coast of the Indian Ocean on the border with Tanzania, a world class location for dolphins as well as other wildlife.

Greece Volunteers will be based in Lakonikos Bay, situated in the Peloponnese. This is an important nesting area for loggerhead sea turtles in the Mediterranean.

Volunteers will engage in daily morning surveys to record nesting activity and protect turtle nests against inundation by sea water and predation by mammals. Volunteers will also help provide conservation information to the local community and overseas visitors.

There are many more opportunities all over the

world, assisting communities with teaching, conservation and community construction. There are many agencies that offer these experiences, the information above was gathered from the fol-lowing site: http://www.statravel.com.au/cps/rde/xchg/au_division_web_live/hs.xsl/volunteer.htm
