Chezzi Denyer on juggling motherhood, work and life
Chezzi is a media personality, blogger, producer and soon-to-be reality star. But around the Central West she's known as a Bathurst local. What do you love about regional NSW? There is so much I love about regional NSW. Starting with the fresh air. I love the people who live in regional NSW. I love the passion we have for our area. I love the community spirit we possess. I love the wide open spaces and being able to park right outside the grocery store or the hardware store. I love the beautiful local produce and wines. I also really love the softer, slower pace out here. And my favourite thing of all would have to be the most beautiful colours of the trees that line the streets in Autumn. Love this content? Sign-up to The Catch-Up What was your motivator to move back to the Central West and continue working in the media industry? When Grant began filming Family Feud which was one-week filming, then one week off schedule - we knew that was our chance to have a tree change we had wanted for so long. To escape the city for the country. Grant had spent most of his childhood holidays at his family farm, and we had always discussed raising our kids in the country. The central west was special to both of us, me because I was born here and much of my family and friends still remain here and Grant because of his fondness of Mount Panorama and racing over the years in Bathurst. And so we made a good balance between being able to work from home in the Central West and also working from time to time in Sydney work for us quite easily. Then when Covid hit, it became even easier for us to do the majority of our work from our home in Perthville. Love this content?

New details emerge in Western Bulldogs great Chris Grant's bitter fallout with Luke Beveridge
More detail has emerged on the horribly damaged relationship between Western Bulldogs legend Chris Grant and the club he represented with such passion. Grant did not attend the Western Bulldogs' centenary gala on Monday night where the club named its top five greatest players of the past 100 years (whittled down from a list of 25). It has been revealed that Grant was seriously urged to go to the event, where he was named in the top three of the club's all-time greats, behind only EJ 'Ted' Whitten (the spiritual father) and modern-day great Marcus Bontempelli. Expert Seven commentator Kane Cornes called it a 'sad and bitter fallout' that was 'really visible' at the Dogs' special night for their greatest of all time. Veteran AFL journalist Caroline Wilson said it all stemmed from Grant's time at the club when he was football director, and a frosty relationship that developed with coach Luke Beveridge after an internal review. 'It's been widely reported that Chris Grant, who was ultimately named one of the top five Western Bulldogs players ever, and who joined the club in 1990 and has pretty much spent most of his life there ever since, wasn't at the function,' Wilson said on Channel 7's The Agenda Setters. 'And it had been described as 'acrimonious' the fallout he had with the coach, Luke Beveridge and the CEO of Ameet Bains ...' Wilson said club legends such Gary Dempsey (fourth best) and Doug Hawkins (fifth) were 'all very close to Chris Grant'. 'They spoke to him. An executive at the club in recent days felt compelled to let Chris Grant know that he would be playing a major part in the proceedings (on Monday night) as the Bulldogs went from their 25 best to five best (of all time). 'But this story is, I know it's been reported there was an acrimonious fallout, but what is staggering to me is how the club actually functioned as well as it did, and actually made one final in 2024 given the fact that Luke Beveridge, the coach, had basically declared at the end of 2023 'it's him or me. It's him or me,'. 'I think Chris Grant looked at leaving (then). I think Luke Darcy and the (president) Kylie Watson-Wheeler, implored him to stay as he bedded in the new footy program.' Asked what was the reason behind Beveridge's attitude, Wilson said it was in response to an 'internal review' commissioned by Grant. She said there were some recommendations from the review that Beveridge simply 'didn't like'. 'He recommended that the coach stay, but he said the coach had to change,' Wilson said. 'There was communication issues, there were consistency issues, there were game-plan issues, specifically with team defence. And obviously, we know that there was a recommendation that at least one coach, Rohan Smith, had to leave, and we know that Luke Beveridge didn't like that. 'There were some very, very robust and angry meetings involving Ameet Bains and involving Luke Darcy and involving several others at the club.' Bains later said in early 2024 that there was no issue and suggestions that there was a breakdown was incorrect. 'But what we know now is that the two men did not speak for the entirety of 2024,' Wilson said. 'People at the club tell me that Chris Grant would walk down a corridor and Luke Beveridge would say, 'Hello' (to others) and just not speak (to Grant). 'Meetings were (apparently) held (and) that Chris grant would make a comment and the coach would just push on.' AFL great Luke Hodge said he was shocked that at some point the CEO didn't step in and say, 'You're both mature adults, you're both professionals, get along until the end of the season ...'. 'In all the football clubs that I've been in, that's probably been one of the tightest relationships (the footy director and the coach),' Hodge said. Wilson said there was obviously two sides to every story but according to Grant supporters Bains — who attempted to play peacemaker — should have stood up and taken a position. 'And it didn't work,' Wilson said. 'There was text messaging in recent weeks and months as Ameet Bains tried to convince Chris to attend on Monday night. 'The fact that Chris Grant didn't attend the centenary celebrations earlier in the year either (shows that he) feels this strongly about those relationships Dale Thomas was shocked that the issue couldn't be parked for a special club event. But Wilson said: 'I think the devastation was so deep.' 'It's not so far gone that he isn't going to watch his daughter Isabella play in AFLW this year,' Wilson said. Isabella made history by becoming the Bulldogs' first father-daughter selection in the AFLW, and Wilson said the Grant family would put 'their issues aside' for her career. 'They're obviously very proud of her ... but there is a deep disappointment with Ameet Bains, (and) obviously real disappointment in the way Luke Beveridge responded to some honest feedback,' Wilson said. 'It was one or the other and Luke Beveridge won.'

Sanitariums and Stigma: When TB Was Common in the U.S.
Recently, the writer John Green spoke with The New York Times about his best-selling book 'Everything Is Tuberculosis' and the reason he developed an obsessive interest in the disease, which kills more people worldwide than any other infectious illness does. Tuberculosis has been rare in the United States for decades, but the conversation inspired many readers to write in to share their own families' history with the disease. Here are excerpts from several. My mother, Babe, had TB in the early 1930s and was put in the Grasslands sanitarium in Valhalla, N.Y. She survived because her doctor gave her pneumothorax treatment, collapsing one lung at a time, to let the lung rest and repair. She said it was very painful. I was told the story over and over. She was so afraid I would get TB. One reason she lived is because she had met my father, Grant, on a trip to California and fallen in love. He wrote to her everyday and even said he would go east, climb the walls of the sanitarium and take her to the clean air of the mountains in California so she could get well. Grant was a writer and a stuntman in Hollywood. He had been Errol Flynn's double in 'Robin Hood.' So he really meant it when he said he'd climb the walls to get her out. He didn't do that. But when Babe recovered, she took a train to California and married my father. Babe's doctor was Dr. William Godfrey Childress, whom I have since found out was one of the well-known TB experts in those days. I met him when she went in for a checkup many years later. (I was born when Babe was 44!) — Wyn Lydecker My grandfather, who immigrated from Ukraine, died at 38 from spinal TB. He left a wife and four children, and one of them, my uncle Walter, had spinal TB that left him about 5 feet tall with a hump. My father was drafted into World War II and came back to the United States and got TB. His brother Walter paid for him to be in a sanitarium called Gaylord in Connecticut. He met my mother there and she had TB, and after two years in the san, as it was called, antibiotics were invented. My mother could take them, but my father couldn't and had to have pneumothorax for many years. It was awful, and I am terrified about the resurgence of antibiotic-resistant TB. — Jody Jarowey I'm a retired M.D.-Ph.D. and I trained at Washington University in St. Louis from 1974 to 1981. In 1980, I took the admission history for a child being admitted for a lymph node biopsy. I'm sure everyone expected cancer. As a medical student, I did a very thorough history, asking about medications (none), whether the girl was up to date on her immunizations, and whether she'd had a TB test. Her mother said 'yes.' For some reason I asked whether the TB test was positive or negative, and she then told me 'positive' and 'Oh, yes, she's on a drug for that.' But the girl was growing, the dose hadn't been changed, and the child's uncle was on two drugs for drug-resistant TB. The multiple nodes in her neck? I can't say for sure, but the surgeons canceled the surgery when they learned of the TB. We had been doing the admission interview in the children's playroom on the pediatric ward. During my training I knew a fellow resident who was diagnosed with a pleural effusion. Surprise — the effusion was from TB! As a college student I worked in the genetics building on the University of Wisconsin campus. One day everyone was told we were going to get skin tests for TB, as someone working in the building had active TB. We don't think about TB much in the United States, but it's still here, and still killing people. The ignorance and the cruelty in our neglect of public health is shocking to me. Now we have left the W.H.O. and shut down U.S.A.I.D. It's hard to believe we are the same people who wiped out smallpox. — Laura J. Brown When I was 14, a small spot was found in my right lung, and I was treated for TB in a sanitarium in Ottawa, Ill. By state law, I had to be there for six months. The horror of this was that I was never actively contagious. I never coughed once, and no bacillus was ever found in my sputum or in the gastric lavages I underwent when they couldn't find TB in the sputum. The rules of the sanitarium were based on protocols developed at the end of the 19th century, long before the modern drugs I was treated with were discovered. — Sandy Robertson

Essential winter care tips for natural hair
We all have bad hair days, and it's often hard to know what to do. Two hair experts answer a few common questions and show us how to have great hair – every day. I like wearing braids, but I'm worried about my receding hairlIne, any tips? A receding hairline can be caused by factors such as harsh chemicals, rough handling, a lack of regular conditioning, fluctuating hormones and poor health, says Grant. Braids that are applied correctly to healthy hair won't cause a receding hairline. ensure your hair is healthy before applying extensions and make sure the stylist doesn't braid your hair too tightly. Use a braid spray or light scalp treatment to maintain the health and moisture of your hair. When removing your braids, be gentle to avoid damage to your hair and give it at least a two-week break before treating it chemically or applying more braids. How often should I relax my hair, and how do I avoid over-relaxing? Healthy hair grows about 1,25 cm a month, says Lucky. This means you should relax your hair after four to six weeks, depending on the rate of your natural hair growth. When retouching hair, avoid overlapping the relaxer on pre-relaxed hair and apply it only on the new hair growth. For fragile hair, use a moisture treatment two weeks before relaxing and use a protein treatment two weeks afterwards to strengthen hair. Also use a good oil moisturiser daily to maintain proper moisture balance. What can I do to soften my dry and brittle hair? Grant says good hair starts with a clean, healthy scalp. Use a moisturising shampoo without harmful soaps or chemicals and apply a deep moisturising treatment at least every two weeks. If your hair is damaged, you need a treatment that provides both protein and moisture. Argan oil is rich in both and is easily absorbed. Use a leave-in conditioner to moisturise hair and tame frizz. Applying an oil sheen spray will form a barrier between the hair follicle and the moisture in the atmosphere, protecting hair against frizz. What should I look for in a weave and what is the proper way to care for it? Lucky suggests you choose a weave with good natural hair fibre made of 100 % human hair that complements your own natural hair. Choose a colour that will best suit your skin tone and avoid weaves with synthetic hair as it can cause a rash. Shampoo and condition your weave at least once every two weeks and apply hair food to your scalp to promote growth and nourish the scalp. Apply a hair serum to avoid tangling and straighten or blow-dry your weave for a natural shine. Read more | 4 Essential tips for long-lasting braided styles My man is balding – what can he do to stop it? The most common type of acute hair loss for African men is alopecia areata, a condition where your immune system starts attacking your hair follicles. It's characterised by a loss of hair in round or oval well-defined patches, without inflammation. The cause is unknown, and the onset of the condition is sudden. Regrowth does sometimes occur, and recovery is usually within three to six months. If the cause is hereditary, then regrowth is less likely. With repeated occurrences of this condition, the chances of regrowth are less. Grant recommends you seek advice from a trichologist (a dermatologist who deals with hair and the scalp) who can advise specific treatment. To slow down hair loss, supplement your diet with hair-growth vitamins and use hair products to stimulate growth. Remember to be gentle when handling your hair.

'Win's a win' - but blunt Motherwell 'need new striker'
We asked for your views after Motherwell laboured to another Premier Sports Cup victory at lower-league what some of you said:Grant: I know it's early with the new manager and players, but we should be beating teams like this by a few goals. Morton will be well up for it and I wouldn't be surprised if they beat us, we need to step up quickly with Rangers at home our first league We need a striker, lots of tippy-tappy football but cutting edge isn't there yet. We will also have to be more secure at the back when we play bigger Again, kept possession well and good movement. Disappointing we've only scored five goals in three games. Bigger test this Tuesday against Morton, should give us a gauge on our progress. But hey-ho, a win's a We were on a hiding to nothing here and the game was played in horrendous weather conditions on a dreadful pitch, but even so this was shockingly Quite concerned by these narrow wins. Don't seem to have the ability to finish. It's going to be another tough season by the looks of it.
