WheelchairsLast Week’s MeetingFor Kids25LatestNovemberAcquisition2010ProbusRotaryInformationWithHugh FrostProbus, established in 1974, is a “Community ServiceProgram” initiated by Rotary Clubs.Probus is an association of active retirees who join togetherin clubs, the basic purpose is to provide regularopportunities to keep their minds active, expand theirinterests and enjoy the fellowship of new friends.The word PROBUS is an amalgam of the word PROfessionaland BUSiness.There are men’s, ladies and mixed clubs and membershipis open to anyone of good character and who hashad some measure of responsibility or achievement inany field of worthy endeavour.Rotary’s role is to access the need and viability within thelocal community and form and charter new clubs. Onceformed they are formally accredited by the Probus Centre –South Pacific Incorporated. Rotary continues to maintain afriendly liaison and interest with the sponsored Club, butstand aside to allow the Probus Club to self govern, developits own identity and programs.Activities of Probus clubs fall into two areas· A formal meeting on a set day each monthcomprising a business session, a coffee break followedby a guest speaker and/or discussion of atopic of mutual interest.Clubs are simple in structure and free from the constraintsand obligations of service clubs. Membership involvesminimal cost and is primarily directed at providing the opportunityfor extension of acquaintance with like mindedindividuals.In March this year our Club established the CombinedProbus Club of Scarborough Beach. Paul Druitt, an exStirling Rotarian is the President and Les Wearne, afounding member of our Club is the Treasurer. It has amembership of approximately 46, many of them pastRotarians.GUEST SPEAKER: Chairman of the day, RobThompson introduced Dr Janet Richardson andLouise Moir of the Occupation Therapy departmentof Edith Cowan University. There talk todayis in regard to the development of the newW4K’s wheelchair and their trip this to Vanuatuand the island of Santo where they took 12 wheelchairsas part of their luggage.Janet described the situation in Vanuatu wherethere is no income tax as people don’t earnenough.

Just for FunDear Tech Support,A few years ago I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0to Husband 1.0 and noticed a distinct slow downin overall system performance, particularly in theflower and jewellery applications, which operatedflawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many othervaluable programs, such as Romance 9.5 and PersonalAttention 6.5, and then installed undesirableprograms such as Car racing 5.0, Computer3.0 and TV Watching 4.1.Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and Housecleaning2.6 simply crashes the system.Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5.3to fix these problems, but to no avail.What can I do?Signed, Desperate.DEAR DESPERATE,First, keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an EntertainmentPackage, while Husband 1.0 is an operatingsystem.application can cause Husband 1.0 to defaultto Grumpy Silence 2.5, Happy Hour7.0, or Beer and Wine 6.1.Please note that Beer and Wine 6.1 is avery bad program that will download theFarting and Snoring Loudly Beta.Whatever you do, DO NOT under any circumstancesinstall Mother-In-Law 1.0 (itruns a virus in the background that willeventually seize control of all your systemresources.)In addition, please do not attempt to reinstallthe Boyfriend 5.0-program.
