FORMER Yellow Wiggle and Founder of Heart of the Nation, Greg Page (pictured) has announced he will attend the Dubbo CPR learning day on March 13, at the Dubbo Regional Convention Centre in Darling Street. Entry is free.

“Nobody knows like I do the importance of CPR,” Mr Page said. “CPR and the defib machine saved my life and I am so happy to throw my support behind Australian Red Cross and Dubbo Regional Council both of whom are hosting this life saving event. I urge everybody to go along.”

George Chapman, Australian Red Cross first Aid Trainer and organiser of the event, said he is honoured that Greg would return to Dubbo for the event.

“Not only will you learn lifesaving CPR and how to use a defib, you could also get your medical questions answered – all for free! You could even bump into Mr Page, so get a wiggle on and come along!”

The day will commence at 9am and run nonstop to 4pm.

NASA’S Mars 2020 space mission saw the Perseveran­ce rover land safely on Mars’ Jezero Crater in February. Guinness World Records has confirmed that this mission and its historic landing have set a number of ground-breaking records. Perseveran­ce is the largest planetary exploratio­n rover, built for NASA by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California. Perseveran­ce is built to the same basic design as its sibling Curiosity but includes additional scientific equipment and a ride-along experiment­al helicopter, as well as mechanical upgrades (such as stronger wheels), which make it significan­tly heavier.

It has a mass of 1026.4kg, compared to Curiosity’s 900kg, making Perseveran­ce the heaviest payload soft-landed on Mars.

POLICE are investigat­ing after a man was seriously assaulted and stabbed at Nyngan about 8pm on Saturday night, February 27.

A 33-year-old man was allegedly confronted by a group of men on Hoskins Street at Nyngan after leaving a party at the nearby showground, the group assaulting the man by hitting him across the head with a glass bottle, before stabbing him in the abdomen. It’s alleged the group continued to assault the man, before fleeing.

The injured man was located by a family member a short time later and taken to Nyngan Hospital, before being transporte­d to Dubbo Hospital for treatment to a suspected punctured lung and heart.

Inquiries into the incident are underway and anyone with informatio­n is urged to contact police.

A cowardly dog act from the sounds of things.
