Young Ntombi Baloyi from Nkowankowa was recently crowned as Miss Mzantsi Africa RoleModel 2014 at the Bay Hotel in Cape Town. The 22 year-old started her modelling career when she was only fourteen years old. She said her life journey hasn’t been a smooth one.

A 13 year-old juvenile delinquent with an “impressive” crime record seems to be the pivot in the series of housebreakings and theft affecting the suburbs of Aqua Park and Arbor Park over the past two weeks.

The police are in hot pursuit of the boy, only known as Nyiko, who is on parole after serving time in a rehabilitation centre for car theft and 28 burglaries since he was 12 years old.

He is said to be small in stature and can maneuver himself through most burglar bars with ease. He concentrates on laptops, cameras and cell phones. He is suspected of at least nine burglaries in Aqua Park over the past ten days.

According to Mr Marius Jacobs of Northern Security several burglaries were reported at the Silver Palms Lodge, Valencia Estates and other premises in Aqua Park last weekend. It is

suspected that “tiny Nyiko” and his assistants might have been involved in most of these burglaries.

Jacobs said a juvenile on parole makes it difficult to identify the culprit, as they are not allowed to use photo’s or full names to trace him. He warned people that the boy usually approaches a residence, humbly asking for help. After scrutinizing the environment, he leaves and returns at night to “harvest”.

He booked in at the Elephant Tusk Lodge for three nights and disappeared afterwards, leaving a trail of burglaries behind.

Jacobs advised people to keep their windows and curtains closed at night. The pilot lights of computers and other electronic equipment should be faded out, as they are easily spotted by the wrong passersby.

Unfinished RDP house collapses

Child thief shock

The Selowa family of Satlaleng, Bolobedu, in the jurisdiction of the Great-er Letaba Municipality (GLM) accused the GLM of failing to complete their RDP house. The construction of the RDP houses started more than ten years ago, but it was not completed as the contractor allegedly van-ished after he was paid before completing their house. After the heavy rains this pile of rubble is all that remained of their semi-complete home.

Molebatsi Masedi Great idea. More time for pupils at the formative stages of schooling. The laying of

a solid foundation for formal schooling.Katrien Van Vreden Lawwegeid! Kry bekwame onderwysers wat weet hoe om kinders te

onderrig, dan hoef die arme kinders nie daaronder te ly deur nog 2 jaar op die skoolbanke te sit nie!

Hans Schouwstra Eintlik is dit niks nuut nie. meeste van ons kinders het in elk geval al met

kleuterskool begin op vier. dis meer gerig op die sg agtergeblewe gemeenskappe waar dit nie so algemeen is nie. die probleem bly waar om opgeleide onderwysers vandaan te kry anders word dit net glorified chreches.

Michelle Ristow Your child has to go to Gr R so they are already at school for 13 years. Instead

of increasing the number of years a child spends at

school the teachers should be given more support. More schools should be built and classes should be smaller. No teacher can cope with the number of kids in a class in government schools

Johan du Toit AfriForum:. Vir dekade al was 12 j voldoende en was die slaagsyfer destyds 40%.

Dit is lagwekkend dat ‘n universiteitsgraad gemiddeld 3-4 j neem en skoolonderrig verleng word na 14 j met die slaagsyfer van 30%.Die westerse standaarde sal nie meer SA gradueerdes aanvaar omrede ons swak onderwystelsel wat 133 uit 139 gelys word. Verkort — Red.

Desiré Lombard Nog n geldmaak scamJaco Rautenbach Dit maak nie saak met hoeveel jaar hulle dit verleng nie ekstra 10 jaar gaan geen

verskil maak aan die standaard nie. die standaard en gehalte moet opgeskuif word.

Ronaldo Caroto Asb nie.. 12 jaar is (was) erg genoeg! Kry nou nog op 30 nagmerries oor skool

& eksamens.. nog ‘n ekstra 2jaar gaan die jeug net verder ‘’traumatiseer!’’ (grappie)

Limpopo Hair Extensions Al maak hulle dit 15 jaar gan helfte nogsteeds DOP! Standaard val net al

hoe verder! Elk geval gaan van die onderwysers sekr net 5 jaar daarvan werk doen en helfte van die tyd gaan leerlinge bunk! Viva piesangrepubliek!!

Julene van Dyk Standaarde val, maar die boeke en werk word net meer en moeiliker — partykeer

kry ons ouers meer huiswerk as die kinders! Maar.... Ek sal WAT wou gee om terug te gaan skool toe — geen rekeninge om te betaal of verantwoordelikhede nie, skool net tot half 2 en 4 keer per jaar vakansie! That’s life!

Sheenaugh-lee Thompson 14 years are they mentally insane! Ag nee rerig dis regtig pateties

verby! Get educated teachers and ones who dont strike and you wouldnt have to put this rubbish on the kids!!

Melanie Brass En Wat wil hul doen vir die ekstra 2 jaar? Dis net geldmaakstories, kry eerder die

straatkinders van die strate af en konsentreer om hulle te help. Stuur onderwysers weer terug vir opleiding en laat meer dinge in die klasse gebeur as om dit huiswerk te maak vir die kinders.

Elna Helberg Van Loggerenberg Dit gaan niks help nie . As ‘n kind nie wil skoolgaan nie gaan

niks hom daar hou nie . Standaarde is useless en pak slae is uit .

Julene van Dyk Bring lyfstraf terug en ‘cater’ vir die regterbrein (kreatiewe deel) ook!

• Die regering dink daaraan om die skooltermyn te verleng na 14 jaar. Wat dink jy daarvan?

• Government is considering increasing the school term to 14 years. What are your thoughts?

Die mense hoor Let wel: Hulle sê nie so nie!

Hoe dikwels hoor Vlieg nie een van die min waarhede wat ‘n mens deesdae hoor as iemand sê “dinge is darem nie meer soos dit was nie”?Behalwe vir die dood, dink Vlieg, is dit seker die enigste ander ding waarvan ‘n mens seker kan wees, naamlik dat dinge verander.As jy so gelukkig is om vandag op ‘n pensioen te kan oorleef, is jy waarskynlik een van die min mense wat in jou leeftyd die meeste verandering beleef het. Ja, niks bly dieselfde nie.Maar wat Vlieg nou eintlik aan veranderinge laat dink het, was die huwelik. Nou daar is nou iets wat lankal nie meer dieselfde is nie. Vanmelewe was dit ‘n instelling van God, ‘n

verbintenis tussen ‘n man en ‘n vrou, omdat dit nie goed was om

alleen te wees nie, en om ‘n nageslag voort te bring.

Ja raait! Wat Vlieg wil weet, is of dit ooit so moes gewees het?

Hoort een man by een vrou, en een vrou by een man vir die res van hul

lewe? Meeste doen dit in elk geval nie! E n hoekom noodwendig ‘n man en ‘n vrou en ‘n vrou en ‘n man? Deesdae is dit mos reg tussen ‘n man en ‘n man en ‘n vrou en ‘n vrou ook. En as dit nie werk nie is dit mos maklik om te skei. Hoekom in elk geval enigsins trou? As paartjies net saambly is dit mos makliker om sommer net uit te trek as dinge nie uitwerk nie!

En as altwee nou uittrek, is ‘n swangerskap mos lankal nie meer ‘n rede om te trou nie. Om die waarheid te sê, dit is meestal dalk ‘n rede om nie te trou nie!Vlieg was baie geïnspireerd deur die woorde van die Sherlock Holmes-karakter in die Towerkanaal se Elementêre storie: “Then there is the elaborate ruse of marriage. An unnatural arrangement which forces its participants into an unhealthy monogamy. An accretion of petty fights and resentful compromises which, like Chinese water torture, slowly transforms both parties into howling, neurotic versions of their former selves.”Lank sal hy lewe, al lyk hy vir Vlieg so ‘n bietjie na tant Koek se hoenderhaan!

In sy glorie, ja, in sy glorie, ja!

Vlieg praat met die Volk en krap waar dit jeuk... Vlieg

Die menings, uitsprake, standpunte, verwysings, komplimente, beledigings, humor, ensovoorts van Vlieg is nie noodwendig dié van die Bulletin nie!

AFFORDABLE HIGH QUALITY IMPORTED LINEN

Tzaneen kry voor die einde van die jaar ‘n splinternu-we poskantoor wat soos ‘n “sieraad” in die sakekern sal uitstaan.

Geen koste sal ontsien word nie en die struktuur en voorkoms van die bestaande gebou sal heeltemal her-sien word.

So verseker mnr Peter Naicker, die streekbestuurder van nuwe strukture in die poswese in Polokwane, die Bulletin. Ons het dié week met hom gepraat.

Hy sê die spesifieke ontwerpplanne word op die oom-blik by die hoofkantoor in Pretoria afgehandel. Die da-tum vir die aanvang van die bouwerk is nog nie bekend nie. Die projek sal egter voor die einde van die jaar vol-tooi wees, sê hy.

Die bestaande poskantoor is reeds in ‘n haglike toe-stand, met tekens van ernstige verweer, en rommel wat daagliks op die toneel gestrooi lê.

Die gebou is ook nie veilig nie. ‘n Seuntjie van twee jaar het onlangs by die pakket-afdeling by ‘n opening tus-sen die veiligheidsrelings geglip en ‘n verdieping ver na onder geval. Die naam van die seuntjie is nie bekend nie en sy ouers het hom vinnig hospitaal toe geneem, voor poskantoorbeamptes sy besonderhede kon kry.

Die waarnemende posmeester het ‘n verslag oor die voorval na die streekbestuurder in Polokwane gestuur, maar geen verdere inligting is daaroor bekend nie.

Naicker sê die ‘nuwe’ poskantoor is reeds lank uit-staande en sal aan alle veiligheidstandaarde voldoen. “Dit sal ‘n sieraad vir Tzaneen wees,” het hy bygevoeg. ‘n Skematiese voorstelling van die nuwe gebou en die presiese koste van die projek sal later beskikbaar wees.

Police awaits release of cousin to help in child

missing case

Limpopo’s Police Commissioner, Lt Gen Fanie Masemola, said they are waiting for the release of 12 year-old Khensani Mathebula, before they can continue with the search for the missing 5 year-old Matimu

Mathebula. Khensani was taken into protective custody after allegations that her family abused her. Masemola said she is still traumatised after the alleged abuse and disappearance of Matimu. “We don’t want to pressure her for information now. We have to wait until the doctor discharges her

and gives us the go-ahead to speak to her.”Khensani is in hospital under the care of social workers. It is still unclear as to why she was apparently beaten to a point that she needed medical care. It is assumed that the family wanted to obtain information from her regarding the disappearance of Matimu. They allege the injuries she sustained were because she fell when she was in search of her cousin.

Mathebula, the father of the lost boy, and Provincial Police Commissioner Masemola met before a meeting to discuss the disappearance of his son.

The MEC for Roads and Transport, Mr Lehlogonolo Masoga, has learnt with shock about the inaccurate and misleading Road Agency Limpopo (RAL) 2012/13 Annual Re-port presented to the provincial Legislature.

The MEC received a complaint from the Au-ditor General’s office about the report which contains information contrary to the one pre-pared by the AG’s office, which could amount to misrepresentation and/or fraud. RAL pub-lished an unqualified audit opinion report yet the AG has issued a disclaimer of opinion.

Upon learning of the Report, Masoga has since notified the Speaker of the Legislature, sanctioned the withdrawal of the report, re-called all printed copies, instituted measures to conduct a forensic investigation and met with the AG’s office to appraise them on the steps being taken to deal with the matter. “We wish to apologise to the office of the AG, Legis-lature and the people of Limpopo for this em-barrassment. We will leave no stone unturned in dealing with unethical and fraudulent ten-dencies within our ranks”, said Masoga.

“As a department we wish to assure the public that we remain resolute in preserving the integrity and good image of our provin-cial administration by fighting and uprooting maladministration and corruption.”

Nog leuensNou is die padagentskap wat na Limpopo se hoofpaaie moet omsien, ook uitgevang dat hulle oor hul prestasies en werk gelieg het. Die Ouditeur-generaal het bevind dat daar by die agentskap (Roads Agency Lim-popo — RAL) fout is, maar die agentskap se topbestuur het dit op ‘n erg bedrieglike wyse probeer toesmeer.

Die regering van Limpopo het by monde van die LUR vir Vervoer gou ingegryp en ‘n forensie ondersoek gelas. Die fiktiewe jaarverslag wat RAL aangebied het, is ook onttrek.

Sodra die forensiese ondersoek afgehan-del is, sal verdere stappe aangekondig word, maar intussen het die LUR beloof daar sal sterk opgetree word.

En dit is wat belastingbetalers verwag: genadelose optrede teen die swetterjoel kor-rupte amptenare in ons land, wat sonder om te blik of te bloos die burgery daagliks be-steel, bedrieg en afjak asof hulle wat vir die burgery werk eintlik die base is.

Die vlakke van arrogansie by amptenare blyk toe te neem, eerder as dat dit afneem of heeltemal verdwyn.

Iets gaan een of ander tyd meegee en hoe gouer die regering besef dat hul skelm amptenare ons land in ‘n toestand van an-argie kan dompel, des te beter.

Dienslewering, of eerder die gebrek daaraan is besig om mense oor ‘n baie wye front kwaad te maak.

Waaroor min mense dink en wat ons poli-tieke leiers nie bereid is om te erken nie, is dat as anargie in Suid-Afrika onbeheersd raak, die ganse streek suid van die Sahara ook in chaos gedompel gaan word.

Wow we have almost come to the end of the first month in January, to all intents and pur-poses it seems to have been a rather a quiet pe-riod, but dig deeper and the worms come out. The media love a story and especially if the church is involved. Take for instance the media coverage behind the pastor from some church who made his folk eat grass or the constant sexual harassment of children in the Catholic Church, although I do not condone this action, why do people paint the whole religious com-munity with the same brush? There are those who do what God has called them to do and obey His Laws, but never-the-less the whole Christian church is seen as to be bad. I agree that we as God-fearing people must stamp out these practices but it is not necessary to place the blame on the entire Church. We need to pray that God will intervene in these people’s lives and root out all evil.

Do not refrain from going to church just be-cause of one or two who are not up to stand-ard, who are sinners of the worst kind. Jesus commanded us to pray for all. He and God are the judges and these people will in the end have to answer to Them, just as we all will have to answer for our mistakes.

Listen to what Jesus says: “A new command-ment I give you: that you love one another just as I have loved you”

So think twice and get the true story behind each incident before you judge.

Tzn support group gets training“People who are unemployed, feel desperate and

stressed about not earning an income”, says Connie from Tzaneen, one of the South African Depression and Anxiety Group’s (SADAG) support group lead-ers. “This depression and pain tempts them to take drugs to take away the pain.”

In Limpopo, like in many regions of the country, un-employment and substance abuse are closely linked. “People often don’t recognise the signs of depression or try to self-medicate stress with alcohol or drugs”, warns SADAG. And the cycle becomes a vicious one — having no hope for a brighter future, trying to get through one day at a time, and falling into addiction. Sadly, many people who turn to substances to cope with financial or employment stress, lose their jobs as a result of their addiction; causing greater stress.

According to the Central Drug Authority (CDA), over R3,5 billion is spent annually by South Africans to purchase dagga — a lot of money for people with no income. Dagga (marijuana) is a very misunder-stood substance — many people think it is a ‘natural weed’ and that it is harmless. But use of dagga can result in changes in personality, excessive aggres-sion, fear and distrust. According to Another Chance to Change Rehabilitation Centre, marijuana is more destructive to the brain than any other drug.

There has been a call to communities to act on grass-roots level and do something tangible at community

level to positively impact communities in need. SAD-AG’s Support Group programme is such a project. It’s often hard for sufferers and their loved ones to discuss substance abuse issues or get support. In dis-advantaged areas, where unemployment is high, in-formation, resources and treatment is often severely lacking.

By training community members to start and run Support Groups, places of hope and help are created and sustained. “Dagga is a big problem in my com-munity”, says Connie. “I wanted to help and share accurate information about what it is, what it does and how to stay clean with community members. If people have the right information about the dangers of addiction and are able to get support in a non-judgemental way, there is still hope.”

“Just knowing that there are many other addicts who want help is important”, says Connie. “It gives hope and shows people that there’s nothing to be ashamed of.”

Sadly families don’t always support their loved one’s substances abuse because of anger, stigma and mis-understanding. Addicts are often blamed or turned on and don’t have the support or understanding to get clean or stay clean. “Most of my members rely on the support group because they are either rejected or judged by their families”, says Connie. Her group’s members are desperate to get out of the cycle of addic-tion and are grateful for any information, support and help that can help them do that.

A group of people, who meet regularly, who share a common issue, and have committed to help-ing each other and themselves achieve their goals through sharing experiencing, advice and support is powerful. Connie hopes that through empower-ing of the group, the effects are duplicated on their friends, neighbours and families and that there is a generally new idea about substance and how to stay sober. Connie is working hard to gain the trust and support of local clinics, social workers, schools and police in the area.

SADAG has over two hundred Support Groups working across the country and is running workshops to train com-munity members to start more groups. The reality is that many South Africans don’t have access to treatment or spe-cialist clinics, many are isolated and alone, but through these

groups, all people have access to information, answers, and help.Get in touch with a Support Group — or start your own — by calling SADAG on 0800 12 13 14

or 0800 21 22 23. “In my community, like in many others, we need each other to get information and help. Thank you to SADAG for the invaluable help and support,” Connie said.

Top 5 Benefits of being in a support group1. A safe, confidential forum for sharing concerns and

challenges.2. A regular source of inspiration and motivation as

you witness your fellow members’ achievements and they support and encourage yours so you don’t feel you are “doing it alone”.

3. The opportunity to brainstorm ideas and receive useful feedback and access to other people’s experi-ences and learning.

4. A structure in the group will help you set and keep track of your goals.

5. Lofts of new professional relationships and personal friendships.

6. Helps you realise that you are not alone and that there are people who understand what you are going through.

7. Helps you take control of the problems you are experiencing.

Die agentskap wat na die provinsiale paaie in Limpopo moet omsien, is uitgevang dat hulle gelieg het in hul jaarverslag oor hul prestasies. Terwyl die Ouditeur-generaal gewys het op bepaalde tekortkomings, het die agentskap, Road Agency Limpopo (RAL), die OG se kritiek weggelaat en vir hulself ‘n beeld van onskuld en voortreflikheid geteken. Dit is bedrog. RAL se doen en late is lankal onder verdenking en nou is dit bevestig. Op die foto’s hierby is dit duidelik hoe onder-houd afgeskeep word — terwyl die veiligheid van motoriste eenvoudig geminag word.

Mike and Monica Amm, both 80, have been living at Mac-adamia Retirement Village in Tzaneen for just over a year. They bought a house with Tzaneen Dam frontage and an indigenous bird park in between.

The garden was nonexistent but because of Monica’s gar-dening expertise and Mike’s Em-Extend, the garden, which includes a vegetable garden, is fully established.

Em-Extend, a Japanese invention, is a fermented prod-uct consisting of beneficial micro-organisms. This organic fertiliser and compost softens the soil and improves plant growth and crop production. ZZ2 is the biggest user of Em-Extend in the world. Mike buys the concentrate from the Pretoria depot and dilutes it with molasses and other beneficial agents. Em-Extend is light brown in colour and has a beery, yeasty smell. Mike sells it at R20/litre.

Their vegetable garden is thriving despite the presence of vervet monkeys at Macadamia. Monica says: “The monkeys haven’t raided our vegetable patch yet. However, when they do, we’ll device a scare tactic of some kind. We respect the vervet monkeys and do not feed them.”

Mike grew up in Mokopane and moved to the Tzaneen area when he married home grown Monica. Monica’s grandfather, Bill Tooley, was the first citrus farmer in the area and started Kings Walden in Agatha. The Amms farmed in the Letsitele Valley on Murlebrook Farms for 47 years. They grew many things including cotton, which was unsuccessful. The eventual success lay in orchards of Sensa-tion fibreless mangoes and bananas. They had a huge high-tech pack house and exported the fruit.

Murlebrook Farms was the first to be land claimed in the district. “Negotiations were amicable and we were paid in full,” says Mon-ica. The couple then found land at the top of

Agatha and went the organic route with grana-dillas, using Em-Extend. They hung up their farming boots to retire to Macadamia.

The couple now devote their time to their other passions and are keen dendrologists, twitchers and travellers. Mike has been marking trees for years and is seen driving around Macadamia on his red Yamaha with his lug box of labels, wires and tools. His other current marking project is at Uni-corn Primary School. He says “the labels were getting ex-pensive to produce. Fortunately I’ve now found reasonable printers in Tzaneen.”

Mike was also co-author of the definitive book Trees and Shrubs of Mpumalanga and the Kruger National Park. The 700 page book, published by Jacana, took five years to research. Mike says “I’d get together with co-authors Ernst Schmidt, Mervyn Lötter, Warren McCleland, and John Burrows and we’d go through all slides (yes, they were slides in those days) and chose only the best for the book. The book is into its second edition.”

Mike recalls how they got into dendrology. “The late well-known Peter Williams introduced us to the Chief of Forestry in Pretoria, Fried von Breitenbach, who started the Dendro-logical Society in South Africa. Fried and his wife Juta took us everywhere to identify trees. Fried brought indigenous trees to the ordinary man. The Dendrological Society head-quarters are in the UK. I was made an honorary member of the German Dendrological Society and was given a copper commemorative coin.”

The Eco Club has replaced the Dendrological Society in the Tzaneen area. Headed up by Paul Zaayman, it covers a broad field that includes birding, tree outings, places of natural or historic significance and many other field excur-sions.

Mike’s other interest is furniture making and he’s made some stunning pieces of furniture out of Matumi wood. Monica designed the gardens at the Coach House and managed them for eighteen years. Together with Patricia Baragwanath form Haenertsburg she worked in the Magoebaskloof Hotel gardens.

When asked what their greatest achievement was, Mike and Monica said that having five daughters was a blessing; but their greatest achievement was that all five are highly successful.

Today the Bulletin introduces Mike and Monica Amm to our readers. Sue Ettmayr interviewed the couple for the second part of our new exclusive series, introducing our area’s senior

citizens and their contributions to Limpopo’s Lowveld.

The Market Café

One of the most luxurious spa’s, con-veniently located in Limpopo, is just minutes away by car or public trans-portation. We are committed to pro-vide the best services and products to fulfill your spa experience. The Spa allows you to escape your daily rou-tine and enter a world which nurtures your health and beauty. Enjoy a pro-fessional spa therapy session or a day of unequaled pampering. Your mind and body will be restored in an atmos-phere of tranquility, soft music and soothing aroma therapy. You’ll leave with renewed strength, enhanced beauty, and a refreshed spirit.

Escape to Earth Spa

Die benaming is internasionaal, maar hier word jou koffie met graagte op Afrikaans bedien.

In die Lifestyle Sentrum het die Market Café binne twee jaar gegroei as verreweg die gewildste koffiewinkel in Tzaneen, waar klante met puik diens aangespoor word om telkens terug te keer daarheen.

Benewens ‘n uitlokkende spyskaart en enigsoortige soetgoed spog die Market Café ook met die reputasie vir die lekkerste koffie in die dorp. ‘n Bonus word toegevoeg met ‘n pragtige uitsig vanaf die stoepkafee voor Food Lovers Market.

Die bestuurder, mnr Willem Cloete, en sy personeel het almal Barista-opleiding ont-vang en weet hoe om koffie te maak. Cloete sê hy onderhandel met ‘n koffie-maatskappy vir verdere oplei-ding en gaan selfs die winkel se koffie in die toekoms onder sy eie handelsmerk registreer.

Volgens Cloete was Tzaneen nooit ryk aan koffiewinkels nie. Vir jare lank was daar net twee, totdat ‘n tydperk aangebreek het dat minstens sewe van hulle oornag opgeskiet het. Dié het intussen weer ver-dw-yn, wat die weg gebaan het vir Market Café om as volwaar-dige koffieplek te vestig.

Die winkel is bekend vir sy

ontbyt, houtoondgebakte pizzas en tramezzi-ni’s, terwyl ‘n 400 gr T-been met pap en sous elke Woensdag en Vrydag op die spyskaart is. Vir die soettand word koek en ander lek-kernye spesiaal gemaak, wat nie eens in die bakkery beskikbaar is nie.

“Ons glo daaraan om kos warm op die tafel te bedien en dit met flink en deurlopende diens op te volg, want ons wil graag hê die klante moet terug keer vir meer.”

Hy het ‘n permanente personeel van drie, terwyl sewe skoliere oor naweke kom hand bysit. Cloete sê ook dankie aan die mense van Tzaneen en besoekers van elders wat die Market Café se voorspoed help vestig het.

Besigheidsure is 08:00 tot 18:30 van Maan-dae tot Vrydae, 08:00 tot 16:30 op Saterdae en 09:00 tot 14:30 op Sondae. Mense wat vroeër opdaag vir ‘n stomende kop-pie koffie, is hartlik welkom.

Detox drinks are the detoxifying drinks that help you stimulate body metabolism. They allow the body to cleanse naturally while we take a

break from solid foods.

1. Throw all the ingredients for the marinade together in a marinating bowl and mix well. Toss the beef cubes into the mix and stir until all the pieces are coated in marinade. Cover the bowl and marinate for at least 3 hours (on your counter or somewhere in the shade), but preferably overnight. Whenever you feel like it, you can visit the meat and stir it around before putting it back in the fridge.2. Around the time that you’re lighting the fire for your braai, remove the marinated meat from the fridge and wash your hands for the assembling process. Skewer the beef cubes by alternating with pieces of onion, peppers, whole mushrooms and cherry tomatoes,

packing them tightly together. Brush the assembled kebabs with any leftover marinade.3. Braai the kebabs for about 8 minutes over hot coals. The kebabs can be quite fragile, so braaing them in a hinged grid that you close gently is the way to go.Recipe & photo copyright: JanBraai

Hoekom koolhidrate verminder?Jou liggaam gebruik koolhidrate as brandstof deur die vervaardiging van gewone suiker deur stysels en suikers af te breek. Dié gewone suikers is bekend as glukose en word deur die bloedstroom opgeneem. Met behulp van insulien dring glukose die liggaamselle

binne. Glukose word ingespan as ‘n bron van energie en dit wat oorbly word in die lewer,

spiere en ander liggaamselle opgegaar of dit word in vet omgeskakel.Insulien kan die afbreek van vet

keer deur suiker as energie te gebruik. Deur die hoeveelheid koolhidrate

te beperk word jou insulienvlakke verlaag. Die laer vlakke van insulien laat toe

dat meer vet in energie omgeskakel word, wat lei tot vinnige gewigsvermindering en ‘n daling in risikofaktore vir verskeie gesondheidstoestande.www.lowcarblifestyle.co.za

Glasses have become as much a fashion accessory as they are a necessity for people with visual prob-lems. As a result, visiting your optometrist and hav-ing to choose a frame from the vast and often over-whelming selection can be daunting. Apart from the concerns of whether a frame looks good, glasses are a costly item, and a new pair of glasses will have to last at least a year, so you will want to choose the right frame.

Before looking at the frame selection, check with your op-tometrist the type of frame that will best accommodate the lenses you need.

There is an enor-mous range of frames at various prices to suit any pocket. Instead of feeling anxious and overwhelmed, adopt the attitude that this is an enjoyable expe-rience!

Do you ever wake up with a sticky dis-charge on your eye-lashes? Red, itchy eyes? It’s possible that you have con-

junctivitis, or “pink-eye”. What Causes Conjunc-

tivitis?Conjunctivitis has a num-

ber of different causes, in-cluding bacteria, viruses, allergies and irritants such as dirt, shampoos and chlorine in swimming pools.

Although it is not a seri-ous health risk, conjunc-tivitis caused by some bacteria and viruses is contagious and spreads

easily.How can you

Prevent Spreading Conjunctivitis?

Avoid touching or rubbing the eyes.

Wash your hands often with soap and warm water.

Wear glasses instead of contact lenses.

Clean contact lenses and cases thoroughly, or throw away disposable lenses.

If your child has bacte-rial or viral conjunctivitis,

keep him home from school until the symptoms have been resolved.

Although it is not a se-rious health problem, it is important to treat con-junctivitis as soon as pos-sible, so consult your Op-tometrist or Doctor.

There are plenty of detox drinks available and are easy to prepare. Besides water, lemon detox and fresh fruit and vegetable juices, green are some of the

detox drinks that work.

Tesla credits the “exceptional cold-weather performance” of its Model S for 20 percent-higher-than-expected Q4 sales of 6 900 units, bringing total Model S sales worldwide to 25 000 so far.

In fact, Tesla says its sedan does so well in the snow that the rear wheels are the only ones that need any torque.

“This car performs outstandingly in winter conditions,” said Tesla VP of vehicle engineering Chris Porritt in a video released the day of the Detroit auto show. “In fact, all wheel-drive is not required at all.”

Porritt points to the electric motor’s low inertia compared to an internal combustion engine, which allows the car’s traction control to react quickly.

To that end, Tesla announced that installation of Superchargers in select areas of Canada will be coming “soon.” There are approximately 80 Tesla Superchargers in place in America right now.

2014 Monte Carlo Rally: Sébastien Ogier and Julien Ingrassia took receipt of the coveted winners’ trophy outside of the Prince’s palace in Monte Carlo. It marks the first ‘Monte’

triumph for the Volkswagen Motorsport team.The two Volkswagen drivers have got

through a season opener that was anything but easy.

Sébastian Ogier and Julien got off to a difficult start, but knuckled down and contended with three days of rain, snow and ice to claw their way up to the top of the leader board –

thereby impressively demonstrating that they are the rightful holders of the world championship titles. Runners-up were Bryan Bouffier and Xavier

Panseri, and Kris Meeke and his co-driver Pilot Paul Nagle, finished in third place.

Source: www.volkswagen-motorsport.com

According to an old saying in the world of sport, making it to the top is comparatively easy, but staying there is a lot more difficult. Volkswagen faces an especially difficult year in the World Rally Championship endeavouring to defend no less than three titles – champion manufacturer, driver and co-driver.

Rare Vehicles: Uhlenhaut 300 SLR CoupeIt’s not an SL; it’s a 300 SLR—the same car that won the 1955 Mille Miglia—built into what our racing director Rudi Uhlenhaut called “a hot-heeled touring car.” In fact, it was built for his own personal use. Rumor has it that it cut Uhlenhaut’s two-and-a-half hour commute from Munich to Stuttgart down to an hour. This model is one of one.

C-Eeing is believing...When the 190 was first presented in December 1982, it didn’t look particularly revolutionary. Yet the Mercedes-Benz mid-size sedan, known within the company as the “compact class” and positioned below the E-Class, S-Class and SL-Class, became a milestone for the future development of the Mercedes-Benz model portfolio.

With its clearly defined wedge shape and finely chiseled light-catching contours, there was nothing reticent about the new model series, proudly taking its place in the Mercedes family. The man responsible for the fresh linear design was Bruno Sacco. The 190E

quickly became a major success and role models. As well as providing the basis for subsequent C-Class generations, the 190 sedan, known affectionately as the Baby Benz, also became the first shot in Mercedes-Benz’s product drive.The Mercedes-Benz compact class - or C-Class as it became known as from the subsequent W 202 series, according to the nomenclature introduced at the time - clearly aimed to replicate the virtues of its bigger relations in terms of handling, passive safety and reliability, and economy.

A3 sedan is all grown upThe driver up front will easily recognise the new Audi A3, which is no bad thing. An 11 mm thick screen rises smoothly out of the dash, while the MMI interface, which uses a rotary dial and small number of buttons to control everything from the GPS to music and phone, is excellent once you’ve got the hang of it.

More impressive still is the quality of the fit and finish. This is not only the best interior in the premium compact segment, but one of the best of any mass-produced car. Audi spent a great deal of time, money and marketing on “haptics”, but it really has paid off over the last decade. Indeed, there’s an argument that says for all the whinging motoring journalists do about lack of steering feel, it’s the tactility of the window switches and heater controls that actually sells cars.

It’s the delicious aroma of chickens on a braai that is attracting more and more customers outside the Rose and Dragon pub at the Oasis Mall in Tzaneen on Saturdays. Mr Nelson Barbeiro (39) takes care of the braai as he flavours the Porra Chickens with his special AiKaramba sauces.

It is a treat to watch the care he takes in the preparation and presentation. Customers can order whole chickens, half and quarter but must be prepared to wait about 45 minutes.

The flavours run the gamut from extra mild to extra hot. Barbeiro’s English is a pleasant mix of accents due to his extensive travels. He was born in Canada of Portuguese parents. His father was a welder and his mother was involved in every aspect of sewing. At the age of seven he returned to Portugal with his parents to the family village of Maçᾶo with its 2 000 inhabitants.

Barbeiro’s greatest love has always been food. When travelling he learnt as much as possible about the different cuisines. He says “I like to see people happy with their food. I make all the food from scratch and don’t use any modern implements.

“I like eating with my hands and my Porra Chickens are best when eaten by hand. My favourite international chef is Chacal from Peru. He cooks in some of the best restaurants in the world and I like the way he cooks.

“He always has his family around him when he cooks. In his cookery books, each recipe has a unique and personal Chacal story.”

Barbeiro met his Tzaneen born wife Nicky (35) while they were working in the UK. Barbeiro was a fork lifter and Nicky was doing quality control at the same company.

They returned briefly to Tzaneen to get married in 2004. Both then returned to Barbeiro’s village of Maçᾶo. Nicky stayed two years, learnt a smattering of Portuguese, and then returned to Tzaneen, where she now teaches Accounting at Merensky High School.

Barbeiro remained in Portugal for another five years, but eventually found the restrictions and paperwork s u r r o u n d i n g anything to do with the culinary world overwhelming. The couple did not see each other during that time.

Nicky didn’t even see a photo of him, and they were considering divorce. Barbeiro is not technologically minded so the only form of communication was via a land line. He came out to South Africa more than a year ago and now he and Nicky live happily in Tzaneen.

The Barbeiro couple took part in the Hoedspruit Xmas market in 2012 and were a hit with their AiKaramba sauces, particularly the very hot sauce called Diablo. They began the Porra chicken venture fairly recently, but do yourself a favour and try Barbeiro’s Porra Chicken with chips in a brown paper bag.

The best Porra chickens in town

The Department of Roads and Transport in Limpopo is endan-gering road users by not proper-ly maintaining Limpopo’s roads. In the last ten months, 2072 ac-cidents occurred throughout the province leading to more than 450 fatalities, the DA in Limpopo says in a statement..

The festive season road death toll was massive this year. Government should clearly be doing everything in its power to make roads safer and more user-friendly.

The problem is that Limpopo’s roads are becoming less safe be-

cause of decaying infrastructure. Many roads are riddled with pot-holes. According to the depart-ment’s monthly reports, many accidents are caused by speeding, reckless driving and tyres that burst due to bad road conditions.

The road conditions on the R555 that links Mpumalanga and Limpopo are especially dan-gerous. The department fails to maintain the road despite it be-ing a major provincial road.

“We want the department to keep the approach of the festive season all year round by deploy-

ing more traffic offi-cials on all the major roads. On top of that, government needs to start maintaining in-frastructure properly. Government is put-ting our people in harm’s way by not properly maintaining road infrastructure. It is dangerous and irresponsible.”

Roads are in a mess

Three donkeys had to be euthanized after their hind legs were almost chopped off by a 32 year-old man in a fit of anger. Mr Sidwell Baloyi from Mavalani, Giyani, who earns on average R600 per monh from doing piece jobs, said he woke up and heard donkeys in his yard.

“I heard them eating my crop and the first thing that came to mind was that I wanted to punish them. I did not think, I only realised later what I had done,” he said.

He has undertaken to replace the three donkeys. He said he was deeply sorry and would ask his brother to help him with money to buy three donkeys at about R1 500 each.

The owner of the donkeys, Mr Joel Malatjie, used the animals as a means to support his family of eight. He said he did not want Baloyi arrested, because it would benefit nobody. “I want him to replace the donkeys, be-cause they are all we have in this family.”

Malatjie used the donkeys to fetch water and firewood for the local community who pays him for the service. “I

have managed to send a child to a driving school with the money I make from the donkeys. I paid R2 000 for his first driving lessons, now I’m not even sure if I will be able to pay the balance,” he said.

Malatjie further said he had an agreement with a lo-cal school to supply firewood for the school’s feeding scheme. He said if he did not find the replacement don-keys soon he might forfeit the deal.

Meanwhile Mr Bennett Chavalala, the SPCA manager in Giyani who euthanized the donkeys to end their suf-fering, said although Malatjie did not want the suspect arrested, the SPCA has opened a case of animal cruelty.

“We also took the suspect to a magistrate where an or-der was given that the suspect should replace the don-keys within two days, since the victim rely entirely on them to make a living,” he said.

Donkeys mutilated for trespassing

Residents of Runnymede outside Tzaneen are fuming after one of the residents blew the whistle on a driving school which oper-ates out of a RDP house. This stuation has sparked tension within the community, es-pecially amongst those who have been wait-ing for years for a RDP house.

One of the residents, who wants to remain anonymous for fear of victimisation, said that “in order to get a RDP house you have to be connected to the right people. We were the first people on the waiting list, but we are surprised to see others are favoured be-

RDP house used for businessfore us. The local leaders have favoured their own friends and relatives.”

One of the instructors of the driving school, who refused to give his name, has refuted any wrong doings and said they are in the business to make money. Mr Samson Maunatlala of the GTM’s housing department said if the driving school was using a RDP house which was built in 1994, there could not be any consequences, because they were not informed of the terms of owning a RDP house. “If the house was al-located to an individual after 2005, there could be consequences.”

“The ward committee has previously met with the ward councillor to give the RDP house to the driving school owner. By that time he was unemployed and he had to make a living. The house belongs to the driving school own-er and there’s nothing wrong when he uses it as a business,” he said.

According to ward councillor Rene Pohl the constitution states that RDP houses are meant for poor people to live in. “The recipients of the RDP houses may not sublet for any busi-ness or any other activity, except to live in.”

Dit smaak vir Oubal KoosKakie se beswaar dat ons demokraties verkose plaasvervanger vir Jacques Kallis die Proteas te veel van ‘n Kaapse Vlakte-kleur gaan gee, toe inderdaad water hou! Pas afgelope Sondag skryf neef Christo Buchner in die GASK* dat daar groot politieke druk op KSA is om die span meer van ‘n Afrika-kleur te gee, en die aangewese man is Thami Tsolekile.

‘Tja, Oubal volg tameletjie Thami se loopbaan nou al geruime tyd en kan sonder vrees vir teenspraak sê dat hy nie die regte man is om Kallis te vervang nie, doodgoeie seun wat hy is. ‘n Mens hoef maar net na die Highveld Lions se vertoning in die huidige T20-kompetisie te kyk (vir wat dit werd is!) om dit te begryp.

Thamiletji voer daai span aan en hulle kon

nog nie een wedstryd wen nie. Hy kan nie kolf nie en hy verdoem die kroonprins-paaltjiewagter, wat wel kan kolf, tot ‘n veldwerker in die buiteveld. Oubal kan aan minstens vier SA spelers

dink wat beter paaltjiewagters is as Thami, en dit sluit die twee wat onderskeidelik vir Engeland en Nieu-Seeland speel uit!

Bo alles kan Thami ook nie boul nie en dis juis die leemte van ‘n vierde naatbouler wat deur Kallis se uittrede gelaat is, wat gevul moet word. Om vir hom plek te maak, sal ‘n taamlike herrangskikking van dekstoele vereis om die span te balanseer. Oubal dink dit maak baie meer sin om eerder vir Lonwabo Tsotsobe in te bring, as die span dan om de dood ‘n Afrika- kleur móét hê.

Die hele storie laat hom so ‘n bietjie dink aan toentertyd in die 60’s toe daar nie Afrikaanssprekendes in die SA-span was nie, sê GertGrensvegter, al was die NP toe aan bewind. Daar was toe ook nie eintlik Afrikaners wat provinsiaal gespeel het nie,

maar ons het vertroosting gevind in die feit dat die SA kaptein, Peter van der Merwe, darem effens Afrikaans geklink het.

Maar toe luister hy en sy pa oor die PYE-draadloos na die uitsending van ‘n toets teen Engeland, sê GG, en die omroeper maak groot gewag van die “English speaking VêndeMûrwie”. Die “English speaking VêndeMûrwie” kan net mooi niks verkeerd doen nie, sy veldplasings is “of the highest order”, hy “fields like a trojan” en is min of meer die beste ding “since sliced bread”. Tot groot ergernis van GG se pa, wat nog herinneringe aan die konsentrasiekamp gekoester het.

Toe SA moet gaan kolf, is hulle gou-gou kniediep in die moeilikheid en met die

telling op 96/7 kom die “English speaking VêndeMûrwie” toe in om te kolf en die kommentator is vol moed dat “the English speaking VêndeMûrwie will steady the ship”. Sink die skip net daar, want Van der Merwe word met die eerste bal skoon geboul.

“Out! VANNERMERWE is out!” jil die man dit uit. Dis net daar, sê GG, dat sy pa die PYE-draadloos aan sy antennatjie opgetel en teen die pilaar op die stoep stukkend geslaan het!

‘Tja, Oubal hoop van harte ons gaan die tameletjie van ons DSTv-skottels teen pilare verbrysel gespaar bly!

(*GASK = Grootste Afrikaanse Sondagkoerant) “There is no racial or ethnic domination of hopelessness. It’s everywhere.” — Sidney Poiter

Die Vossies se eerste krieketspan het in hul eerste Finsbury superliga-wedstryd in Rustenburg met 91 lopies teen die Hoërskool Rustenburg gewen.

Ben Vorster het eerste gekolf en 316 lopies aangeteken. Kaptein Etienne Botha met 134 lopies is goed bygestaan deur Regardt Heiberg met 35 en Girvacques de Jager met 32 lopies.

Rustenburg het teruggeveg en 225 vir die verlies van ses paaltjies in hulle toegelate 50 beurte aangeteken. Roedolf Botes het met die bal uitgeblink en drie paaltjies laat kantel.

Die o.15’s het hul wedstryd met 92 lopies gewen, nadat hulle Rustenburg vir slegs 62 lopies uitgeboul het. Rustenburg het die Vossies gevra om eerste te kolf en hulle behaal toe 153 lopies. Gideon Coertzen het 34 lopies behaal, Franco Oberholzer 25 en Tristan du Preez 23.

Boulers wat uitgeblink het was Jimmy Modiba met vier vir nege en Franco Oberholzer met drie paaltjies vir nege lopies.

Die komende naweek speel die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se krieketspanne teen Benoni High School.

Drie Merensky-tennisspelers het tydens die Desemberva-kansie aan die Limpopo Jun-ior Tennistoernooi in Polok-wane deelgeneem. Hulle beklee tans die volgende po-sisies op die Limpopo ranglys: Eljané Uys - meisies o.17 (nr 9), Riaan Bresler - seuns o.19 (nr 5) en Stefan Pretorius - seuns o.15 wag nog op ‘n plasing, aangesien meeste van hul beslissende wedstryde uit-gereën het.


Die atletiekjaar het vroeg afgeskop by die Hoërskool Merensky, met ‘n interklasbyeenkoms op die tweede skooldag. Die beste seunsklas is aangewys as gr 12D, die beste meisiesklas was gr 10D’s en die algehele wenklas was ook gr 10D.

Die volgende atlete het puik gepresteer en bekers ontvang in die verskeie kategorieë:

Beste senior meisiebaanatleet: Micaela Ball; beste junior meisiebaanatleet: Sansha van

Niekerk; beste junior seunbaanatleet: Noko Malatji; beste senior seunbaanatleet: Jason Moore; beste junior meisieveldatleet: Lily Pohl; beste senior seunveldatleet: Reinhardt Schoonbee; beste senior meisieveldatleet: Melissa Steenkamp.

Junior victor ludorum: Noko Matlatji; junior victrix ludorum: Lily Pohl; senior victor ludorum: Rynard de Lange; senior victrix ludorum: Melissa Steenkamp.

Die atletiekseisoen het begin en die atlete oefen hard vir die verskeie groot atletiekbyeenkomste wat eersdaags begin. Die Laerskool Tzaneen het onlangs hul huissport gehou en die Bulletin was daar vir al die aksie. Oeps, sommige hoogspringers het ongemaklik aan die anderkant van die dwarslat beland; sommige verspringers het soos voëltjies deur die lug geseil; en sommige atlete was te vinnig en te fiks vir die res!.

Die Tzaneen Rolbalklub het die afgelope naweek hul jaarlikse Litchi Toernooi aange-bied en uitgehang om 28 spanne van Gauteng, Noordwes, Mpumalanga, Limpopo sowel as Zimbabwe gasvry te ontvang en met tipiese Laeveldse gasvryheid te bederf.

Prysgeld ten bedrae van R13 000 is deur die eerste vier spanne in die Premier-afdeling ge-deel, maar niemand het aan die einde van die naweek met leë hande huis toe gegaan nie. Al die deelnemers het lekker vars Laeveldse vrugte ontvang en verskeie ander pryse is deur gelukkige wenners in trekkings gewen.

In die Plaat-afdeling het Dennis Paiva en sy span van Nelspruit met die eerste prys weg-gestap. Die wenners van die Premier-afdeling

was Johan du Toit en sy span van Groblersdal, tweede plek is ingeneem deur Wally Duncan en sy span van Lekkerbreek Rolbalklub en in die derde plek was Johan Benade se span van Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub.

Die toernooi was weer ‘n groot sukses met uitstekende rolbal, voortreflilke kos en ‘n on-gelooflike atmosfeer onder al die deelnemers, organiseerders en toeskouers. So ‘n suksesvolle toernooi sal nie moontlik kon gewees het sonder die borge se ondersteuning nie. Al die vrugte wat aan die deelnemers geskenk is, is geborg deur plaaslike boerderye (Pierre Broderyk, Peet Jordaan, Doug Reed, ZZ2 en Granor Passi).

Die hoofborge het eweneens grootliks byge-dra tot die sukses van die toernooi.

Johan Benade en sy span van Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub het hul slag gewys. Hier is David Wiid, Gerda Jordaan-van Zyl, Zane Fanie en Benade saam met

Een van Merensky se rugby-afrigters, mnr Francois du Toit, het in Desember in Durban die Investec International-afrigters-kursus bygewoon. Hy het twee teoretiese eksamens, die inter-nasionale eksamen en die IRB se vlak twee-eksamen geslaag.

In die groep van 25 afrigters wat op hoërskool- tot seniorvlak afrig, was daar twee afrigters van Australië, twee van Nieu-Seeland en drie van Frankryk. Leersame lesings is aangebied deur gerekende afrigters soos mnre Jake White, Pieter de Vil-liers, Nic Mallet en Greg Miller.

Die Hoërskool Merensky se krieketspelers het die naweek na Pretoria gereis, om die jaar met ‘n superliga wedstryd teen Menlopark af te skop.

Die eerste span het hul wedstryd verloor, maar Johan Louw verdien vermelding vir sy prag-kolfbeurt van 51 lopies.

Die o.15A-span het op hul tuisveld kragte gemeet en moes ook die knie teen die Pretoria-ners buig. Shaalhil Shaikh teken egter ‘n puik 54 lopies aan.

Merensky se eerste span meet op 1 Februarie kragte teen die Hoërskool Pietersburg en wil baie graag hul pragvertoning van verlede jaar ewenaar, of selfs verbeter.

Merensky se krieket stotter

Verlede week het die Vossies hul jaarlikse interhuis atletiekbyeenkoms aangebied en die atlete het met die intrapslag gewys hulle het planne vir vanjaar. Die byeenkoms is afgesluit met die afloswedren tussen die klasse, wat die hoogtepunt van die byeenkoms was. Die volgende drie rekords het in die slag

gebly: 100 m vir meisies o.16 is deur Anicha Engelbrecht verbeter (13,09); die 400 m-hekkies vir meisies o.16 is ook ‘n nuwe rekord deur Alison Rudder (75,83) en Sven van Niekers het ‘n nuwe rekord in die skyfwerp

vir seuns o.19 opgestel (49,13 m). Die presteerders van die byeenkoms:

Beste junior meisieveldatleet: Ndavi Nokeri (meisies o.15) hoogspring 1,45 m; beste junior meisiebaanatleet: Lara Schutte (meisies o.15) 400 m 62,63 sek.; beste junior seunveldatleet: Niaan Taljaard (seuns o.14) diskus 42,65

Twee van Klofies se multi-sportatlete het eerste plek-ke behaal in die Limpopo Duathlon kampioenskap in Polokwane. Hierdie presta-sie lei to insluiting in die Gauteng-Noord Duathlon-span, om hulle in die be-kende daisy-uitrusting by die SA kampioenskappe op 8 Maart in Pretoria te

verteenwoordig.

Janco Coetzee en Christelle Coetzer het onderskeidelik eerste gekom in

die o.12- en o.15-duatlon.

Samuel Varrie, bekende sportpresteerder van Merensky, het die afgelope naweek aan die interprovinsialetTweekamp deelgeneem. Hy moes 2 000 m hardloop, en 100 m swem. Atlete van vyf provinsies het in Nelspruit sake uitgespoo,k om hul plek te verseker vir die SA’s. Samuel het die eerste plek in die seuns o.19-groep behaal.
