    LPR CAMERAS: KENDAL ROAD NEIGHBOURHOODWATCH STARTS

    Keeping a watchful eye

    AVRIL FILLIES

    T

    he Kendal Road NeighbourhoodWatch

    (KNW) in Eversdal is in the process of

    implementing the first phase of their

    License Plate Recognition (LPR) camera

    project.

    Residents received letters about thehigh-

    level introduction to the KNW camera

    project. The first phase entails four camera

    points at the main entry routes to the KNW

    area with one camera already operational.

    Plans to expand the camera network are on

    the cards and we will keep residents in-

    formed.

    The placement of the cameras will be

    done based on the streets/locations where

    the financial contributions came from, so

    residents can rest assured that we will do

    our best to spend their money as close to

    home as possible, says Jacques Joubert,

    camera project coordinator for KNW.

    LPR camera feeds will automatically

    match number plates read against a data-

    base of known flagged vehicles.

    This means that unknown or suspicious

    cars travelling in and out of the monitored

    area would be screened and if a match is

    found, it will be reported to law enforcement

    agencies.

    Camera systems are another layer of se-

    curity to protect our neighbours. Many of

    our surrounding neighbourhoods are also

    implementing this technology with great

    success. Our surrounding neighbourhoods

    include Ridgeworth, Stellenberg, Stellen-

    ridge and Aurora. We are sharing informa-

    tion with them to become part of a larger

    safety net covering the entire Peninsula.

    Such a system in our neighbourhood will

    act both as a deterrent to criminals as well

    as provide evidence to investigatingofficers

    after crimeshave been committed, he says.

    He adds that this is quite a costly under-

    taking and that the KNW will need assist-

    ance from the community to raise the neces-

    sary funds for the project.

    A suggested contribution of R300 per resi-

    dent will have the remaining cameras in-

    stalled in no time. This amount can be paid

    as a once-off payment or in instalments.

    Additional information and amarketing

    campaign will be done over the next few

    weeks andmonths, so pleasemake sure you

    and yourneighbours are linked to one of the

    KNW communication channels either via

    our electronic newsletter, Facebook or

    Whatsapp groups. If you are unsure, please

    email me and I will ensure that you are

    linked to your KNW sector manager, he

    says.

    Joubert is more than willing to meet resi-

    dents and share the vision for the KNWs

    camera system.

    A banking account is opened to deposit

    the R300 and he has all the details.

    One of the first fundraisers by the KNW

    will beheld onThursday 21 July at theBarn-

    yard Willowbridge. The show, 1 Hit Wond-

    The City of Cape Towns Vice Squad

    rescued a 24-year-old woman in the

    Bellville CBD during an operation on

    Saturday 18 June.

    The woman, originally from Johan-

    nesburg, told the officers she had been

    forced into prostitution after being

    lured to Cape Town with the promise

    of employment.

    The young woman has been taken

    to a safehouseandwehavehanded the

    case over to the Hawks for further in-

    vestigation. Sadly her story is not

    unique and is yet another cautionary

    tale to young people to double-check

    any offers of employment, especially if

    they are from another town or city.

    They should alsomake sure their fam-

    ily knows their whereabouts at all

    times, says the CitysMaycomember

    for safety and security, JP Smith.

    The Vice Squad issued 20 spot fines

    for solicitation in areas including

    Bellville and Eerste River, totalling

    R23 000.

    The Liquor Enforcement Unit also

    assisted the police and the Western

    Cape Liquor Authoritys Compliance

    Unit in Khayelitsha, Macassar, Lwan-

    dle and Kuils River. They issued 19

    spot fines ofR39 900 andarrested a sus-

    pect for selling liquor illegally.

    V

    erskeie besware is Maandag inder-

    haas deur onthutste inwoners van

    Vierlanden ingedien teen die aansoek

    om n Curro Castle-skool vir sowat 416 kin-

    ders opdie terreinvandieNGKerkDurban-

    ville-Bergsig te bou.

    Daar word aansoek gedoen om die wysi-

    ging van die terreinontwikkelingsplan om

    n dubbelverdieping-skool op erf 10344 reg

    agter die kerk op die hoek van Proteaweg

    en Bolandweg te bou.

    Die erf is gesoneer vir gemeenskapsone

    1, wat voorsieningmaak vir ondermeer die

    bou van plek van onderrig.

    Di aansoek word egter omhul in teen-

    strydigheid, omdat daar op een plek in die-

    selfde brief vandie StadKaapstad se beplan-

    nings- en bouontwikkelingsbestuursdepar-

    tement aan inwoners verwys word na n

    voorskoolse fasiliteit vir kinders van 3

    maande tot 6 jaar oud wat daar beoog word,

    en elders na n horskool vir graad 8- tot 12-

    leerders.

    Die omstredenheid rondom die bou van

    n Curro Castle-skool op die kerkperseel

    van die destydse Durbanville Family

    Church, n bekend as Oakhill, in Son-

    straalhoogte is ook nog nie vergete nie.

    Di skool is einde Desember 2014 by n

    spesiale vergadering goedgekeur n die

    aansoek aanvanklik aangedui het dat daar

    slegs vir Sondagskool-klaskamers aansoek

    gedoen word. Alle prosedure is nie korrek

    gevolg nie en goedkeuring het gevolg on-

    danks minstens 36 briewe van beswaarma-

    kers teen die skool.

    Die aansoek vir n skool by die NG Kerk

    Durbanville-Bergsig het baie kommentaar

    van inwoners op Facebook ontlok, waarvan

    meeste daarteen gekant is.

    Die verwagte toename van verkeer op die

    reeds besige Bolandweg is een van die

    grootste beswarewat inwoners teen die bou

    van di jongste Curro Castle-skool het.

    Een van die inwoners het gevra of daar

    werklik n behoefte aan s n groot kleuter-

    skool in Vierlanden is.

    Inwoners is ook verward oor die weer-

    spreking in die aansoekdokumente oor wat

    presies daar beoog word.

    Hoe kan ons kommentaar lewer as ons

    nie eens seker is wat daar beoog word nie,

    het n ander inwoner gevra.

    Voorts dui die brief aandat die StadKaap-

    stad n openbare deelnameproses moes on-

    derneem, maar daarvan was daar geen

    sprake nie. Slegs 13 direk aangrensende bu-

    re is per bogenoemde brief van die planne

    in kennis gestel, hoewel inwonersmeen dat

    die toename in verkeer n verreikende im-

    pak op die hele buurt sal h.

    Die inwoners is ook ontsteld daaroor dat

    meeste van hulle n week of korter voor die

    sluitingsdatumvan besware opMaandag 20

    Junie eers hul briewe ontvang het.

    Volgens die terreinontwikkelingsplan sal

    die grondverdieping 2 050 m beslaan en die

    eerste verdieping 307 m.

    Voorsiening sal gemaakword vir 73 byko-

    mende parkeerplekke, waarvan 2 vir ge-

    stremdes sal wees. Tesamemet die bestaan-

    de 115 parkeerplekke van die kerk, sal daar

    dus n totaal van 188 parkeerplekke wees.

    Volgens die terreinontwikkelingsplan sal

    n verkeersirkel aangebring word by die

    hoek van Protea- en Bolandweg om die ver-

    keer te reguleer.

    In n verkeersimpakstudie is ook voorge-

    stel dat n bykomende regsdraailaan van so-

    wat 25 m lank in Bolandweg geskep word

    om verkeersvloei te reguleer.

    Op navrae aan Curro Holdings, het n

    woordvoerder ges daar is nie sprake van

    n horskool nie en dat die Stad gister aan

    haar erkenhet dat dit n fout in die brief aan

    inwoners was.

    Volgens haar is die ontwerp van die skool

    nog nie finaal nie, maarmaak dit tans voor-

    siening vir n dubbelverdieping op een

    flank.

    Hoewel n sketsplan in die brief aan inwo-

    ners dit laat blyk dat die skool losstaande

    van die kerk sal wees, het diewoordvoerder

    ges daarword gehoop omdie skool vas aan

    die huidige kerkgebou te bou.

    Daar sal tussen 16 tot 19 klaskamerswees.

    Die hoeveelheid kinders wat geakkommo-

    deer gaan word, sal afhang van die finale

    ontwerp tussen 366 en 441 kinders, het sy

    ges. Volgens die Curro Holdings-woord-

    voerder het mense nog tot drie weke na 20

    Junie grasie om kommentaar in te dien.

    Die Stad Kaapstad het nie nog nie teen

    druktyd op vrae oor die aansoek reageer

    nie.

    Onthuts oor skool

    n Curro Castle-kleuterskool word op di stuk grond aangrensend aan en agter die NG Kerk

    Durbanville-Bergsig beoog. Die inrit na die skool sal vanuit Bolandweg wees, regoor Hermon-

    straat. FOTO: CARINA ROUX

    @dezzierorke

    A

    pplications for special votes during

    the upcoming local elections opened

    on Friday 10 June and closes on Fri-

    day 8 July.

    It is important to apply early for this vot-

    ing right, should you not be able to vote on

    election day onWednesday 3 August, says

    ward councillor Marian Nieuwoudt.

    There are essentially two types of special

    votes firstly Type 1, were a voter goes to

    their local voting district to cast their vote

    on Monday 1 or Tuesday 2 August, and sec-

    ondlywhere the voter receives a home visit

    from the Independent Electoral Commis-

    sion (IEC) to cast their vote.

    A Type 1 special vote can be applied for

    by any registered voter who for whatever

    reasonbe it travel, business, orworkwill

    not be able to vote on Wednesday 3 August.

    They will be able to apply for a special vote

    and if successful, will be able to cast their

    vote at the polling station at which they are

    registered to vote, on the special voting

    days prior to the election, she explains.

    Application for this type of special vote

    can be done in three ways: an SMS to 32249,

    an online submission at www.elections

    .org.za, or a submission of form MEC35 at

    the IEC office in Bellville or elsewhere.

    A Type 2 special vote is only for the sick

    and housebound. In this instance, a voter

    would apply for an IEC official to visit them

    at their home on special voting days be-

    cause they are not mobile and or too sick

    to vote on election day. People requiring a

    home visit must reside and be visited in the

    voting district in which they are registered

    to vote, she says.

    Application for a homevisitmust be done

    using the MEC35 form either in hard copy

    and submitted to the IECoffice, or using the

    online form.

    If your application for a special vote is

    successful, you will vote in the following

    manner:Your thumbnail ismarkedwith in-

    delible ink, while your ID book is stamped.

    You will receive the relevant ballot pa-

    pers to be marked in secret and placed and

    sealed in an unmarked envelope. The un-

    markedenvelope is placed inanother envel-

    ope that ismarkedwithyourname, IDnum-

    ber and voting district number.

    The use of two envelopes is to ensure the

    secrecy of your ballot. The outer envelope

    is discarded before counting, says Nieuw-

    oudt. IEC officials will place your envelope

    in a secure ballot box for special votes and

    your name is marked off the voters roll to

    indicate that you have cast a special vote.

    middel van gratis internettoegang van 40

    minute per dag. Baie van die straatmen-

    se was lank nie deel van die werkers-

    korps nie en dan ontwikkel ons hul CVs

    om by die werkbeskrywing te pas waar-

    voor hulle aansoek doen. Ons tik die CV

    oor en het n onderhoud met die kandi-

    daat sodat die persoon duidelikheid het

    oor watter soort werk of pos hy voor kan

    aansoek doen, het sy ges.

    Volgens haar doen baie ouens aansoek

    vir werk wat glad nie deur haar/sy CV

    ondersteun word nie.

    Sommige werksondervinding word

    uitgelaat, omdat dit informele werk was

    of vir kort tydperke. Alle ondervinding

    is belangrik en moet in jou CVweerspie-

    el word.

    Ons bemagtig ook mense met e-pos-

    adresse en internettoegang. Ons leer die

    ouens om die internet te gebruik omdat

    die meeste poste deesdae op die internet

    geadverteer word, het sy bygevoeg.

    Sodra die CV opgestel is, word dit aan

    die persoon teruggestuur sodat dit elek-

    tronies aan hom beskikbaar is en hy ook

    van ander plekke as by Grow aansoek

    kan doen. Hier kan die persoon gebruik

    maak van internet by biblioteke of inter-

    netkafees.

    Wanneer iemand vir ons kom s dat

    hy of sy n werkonderhoud het, help ons

    met die voorbereiding vir onderhoude.

    Ons doen saam navorsing oor die

    maatskappy en indien nodig, sorg ons

    dat die applikant geskikte klere en ver-

    voergeld het.

    Ons bevestig ookmet diemaatskappy

    of die persoon wel n onderhoud het. Die

    meeste ouensgebruikdie geleentheidom

    by Grow te werk en is dus in staat om

    self hul vervoer na die onderhoud te be-

    taal, het Van der Westhuizen ges.

    Sy het bygevoeg dat die programme

    wat Grow aanbied almal bymekaar in-

    skakel. Die werksrehabilitasieprogram

    gebruik die sentrum om aansoek te doen

    vir werk, en die werksoekers kan by

    Grow werk om eers iets bymekaar te

    maak en dan help die sentrum die appli-

    kant om doeltreffender aansoek te doen

    vir werk.

    tionwork at the Plattekloof intersection,N1

    outbound, will be between 08:00 to 15:00 dai-

    ly. Lane closures for the installation of a

    freeway management system and national

    long distance service route between the

    Durban Road and Old Oak intersections

    will also be closed for the same period.

    Y

    outh Day is a reminder that the future

    is in the hands of the youth, and educa-

    tion is the key.

    Khwezi Jackson (19), a student from Bell-

    ville and a former learner from Stellenberg

    High School, says students complaining that

    they cant afford a tertiary education, have

    no excuse not to study.

    It is our responsibility to determinewhat

    kind of future we make for ourselves, he

    says. My mom, Chumisa, is a single parent

    with four children, and she also could not

    afford to sendme to university or technikon.

    She opted to sendme to the Cape TownTerti-

    ary School in BusinessAdministration (TSi-

    BA) in Pinelands after matric in 2014, says

    Jackson.

    He is a Bachelor in Business Administra-

    tion student and he would like to encourage

    those who cant afford to study at a tertiary

    institution to opt for TSiBA.

    TSiBA shows us that education is more

    than just studying; that there is a whole

    world out there. At TSiBA students are giv-

    en a second chance to catch up and learn ba-

    sic academic skills which they may have

    missed in high school. TSiBA is different in

    that they provide great support to help all

    students to do well in their studies. Their

    Pay it Forward philosophy empowers me

    to give back to the community, but I also get

    to do amazing things, gain exposure to new

    networks, ideas and overseas university

    programmes, he says.

    TSiBA offers four business entrepreneur-

    ship and leadership qualifications with a

    strong focus on self-development and practi-

    cal experience, in this way effecting real so-

    cio-economic change for the future.

    My advice to learners is to know what

    you want to do and research your options as

    well as the scholarship opportunities out

    there. There aremany great tertiary institu-

    tions out there, but I would highly recom-

    mend if you are motivated, self-driven and

    have a good attitude, you should apply to

    TSiBA. Its more than just a scholarship;

    more than just an education. Its a way of

    life. The reality is a degreedoesnt guarantee

    a job anymore, but I am confident that TSi-

    BAs programme and accredited degree will

    developme tobe the employee that everyem-

    ployer is looking for, he adds.

    Jackson was born in Mount Frere in the

    EasternCapeandattended theExcelsiorPri-

    mary School and Stellenberg High. He was

    a member of the Students Representative

    Counsel in 2015 and was selected to be a

    youth leader for a youth group called the

    RUSH (Rocking the Universe Spiritually

    High).

    In 2015 I was accepted at TSiBA and com-

    pletedmyHigherCertificate inBusinessAd-

    ministration. Iwas fifth on themerit list and

    started my Bachelors this year. I have

    served in the executive boards of Enactus as

    well as the TSiBA chess team, he says.

    Adri Marais, TSiBA CEO and co-founder,

    explains that TSiBAs unique curriculum

    integrates knowledge, skills and attitude

    through our Profile of Graduateness which

    has been carefully designed to match the

    needs of employers and the competencies

    needed to be a successful entrepreneur.

    The evidence is there in that 96% of TSi-

    BA degree graduates are employed, study-

    ing at postgraduate level or become entre-

    preneurs, he says.

    Kwanele Magwaca of Student Recruit-

    ment at TSiBA, encourages learners and po-

    tential scholarship applicants to be more

    organised, plan ahead and send in applica-

    tions early. We are looking for young peo-

    ple who have potential, an interest in busi-

    ness and who want to make a difference in

    their communities, to apply to TSiBA.

    V To grab this opportunity and change your life visit

    30 July 2016 between 10:00 to 13:00. You will get

    to experience the campus and learn about this busi-

    he Greater Tygerberg Partnership

    (GTP) will be launching their busi-

    ness plan for 2016/17 for Bellville

    and Parow at a business breakfast at Nit-

    idaWine Farm in Durbanville on Thurs-

    day 30 June.

    Since the inception of the GTP our

    biggest challenge was engaging with all

    stakeholders to create an inclusive re-

    generation process.We are also trying to

    increase the marketing of the GTP and

    the area, says CEO Chris OConnor.

    The other big challenge is the crime

    and grime issues which need urgent at-

    tention and a consolidated and coordi-

    nated effort from all stakeholders in or-

    der to make the area attractive to invest-

    ment and development.

    Objectives

    To realise our vision to create an in-

    clusive, vibrant and economically pros-

    perous area in which to invest, live,

    work and play, we have to achieve cer-

    tain objectives. We need to market the

    northern urban area aggressively by in-

    teracting with business, health, educa-

    tion and community leaders, as well as

    the general public. We need to plan and

    develop with the City of Cape Town a vi-

    brant and well- coordinated urban area

    with emphasis on the Bellville and Par-

    ow nodes, he says.

    The entire area covered by the GTP

    plans to promote investment byworking

    closely with other marketing agencies

    and institutions. This includes mobilis-

    ing City, local and provincial support

    from government and business for the

    social enhancement and economic

    growth plans for the area.

    Wewill achieve this through a strate-

    gic approach which is aimed at unlock-

    ing opportunity in five steps, says

    OConnor.

    A creative and inclusive strategywill

    unlock the significant potential of the ar-

    ea. Residents and businesses alike will

    share the benefits of quality housing, ef-

    ficient public transport and recreational

    opportunities near to their places of

    work.

    Successes

    successes achieved so far by the GTP

    include the launching of ongoing pro-

    grammes that have made public spaces

    more accessible, safe, and welcoming.

    These include Jack Muller Park, Elsi-

    eskraal Greenbelt, Kerkplein, Tedding-

    ton Road and Kruskal Avenue in Bell-

    ville and Parow Station Arcade.

    Our Infrastructure andServiceDeliv-

    eryProgrammehas succeeded in attract-

    ing investors and developers into the

    Bellville and Parow area and our service

    offering for investors, developers and

    property owners has been enthusiasti-

    cally received, says OConnor.

    Our efforts have led to buildings be-

    ing upgraded and re-purposed to accom-

    modate the need for increased property

    densities through mixed use develop-

    ments that offer retail premises, afforda-

    ble rental accommodation and student

    accommodation.

    J

    ust work and no play this is the picture

    many employees are faced with today in

    the grownupworld of a tough, struggling

    economy.

    A Durbanville couple, Shane and Rozelle

    Johansen, launched their first play@work

    book last Tuesday at Tables at Nitida after

    they have developed a unique new concept

    to introduce play to peoples work day.

    We want people to discover how adding

    abit of play can leave themrefreshed inbody

    and mind, less stressed, anxious and over-

    whelmed andmore innovative and creative,

    aswell as a better individual and teammem-

    ber, says Rozelle.

    I remember as a child the endless play

    times. We grew up on the Cape flats with a

    neighbourhood filled with other barefoot,

    high-spirited and imaginative kids. Our

    lunches would be mud cakes baked off the

    pavement; early autumns were spent in the

    elaborate castles we built fromPort Jackson

    trees and endless summers in our pool. Play

    was beautiful, creative and free.

    I guess we grow up and our play changes,

    adapts and sometimeswe even forget to play

    as the seriousness of being grownup and the

    responsibilities of life cloud our view. My

    first grownup reality check was landing my

    first real job.Mydreamsandvisions of how

    easy and fun life was, were replaced with a

    sense of boredom, frustration, dashedhopes,

    a mild depression, retrenchment and the

    like, she explains.

    My career took on a number of twists and

    turns and I discovered a workspace that val-

    ued working hard and playing hard. Work

    was interspersed with dress-ups, karaoke

    and competitions. But, the economy

    changed and we found ourselves working

    longer and harderwith play times becoming

    further and further apart.

    I was working in human relations and

    watching people as thewalking dead stead-

    ily losing hope and heart, running on the

    treadmill trying to keep their heads above

    water. This disturbed me and I guess I felt

    trapped, because I was in the same boat.

    She engaged with employees in team

    building and she started to experiment with

    play.

    Every time people played, something

    magicalhappened.They left refreshed, light-

    er and ready to face their work.

    When she and husband Shane began col-

    laborating in the work space, they widened

    and deepened their play at work experi-

    ments and took teams and individuals on

    play journeys and piloting play interven-

    tions.

    It dawned on us that we could give back

    to theworld of work by creating a taster ex-

    perience for people of what bringing play

    back to work could do for them, she says.

    This is how the @work series was born

    with their first book having been launched.

    People are encouraged to instead of

    grabbing a rushed coffee break at their lap-

    top or wolfing down a sandwich between

    meetings deliberately and deservedly

    schedule in a daily break to bring the fun

    and playfulness into their life and work.

    Why should your meeting notes be writ-

    ten in strict soldiering lines when you can

    doodle them in your favourite colours? Ro-

    zelle asks.

    From left: Deane Tomas from Bastion Primary School, with the team from Danil and Friends,

    Lianie le Roux, Minki Burger, Lizel Smit and Nicky de Beer.

    During the second school term, the Danil

    and Friends Fund, a non-profit organisa-

    tion which provides a holistic approach to

    supporting families who have children

    with special needs, launched its Different

    is cool school awareness campaign.

    We have become increasingly aware of

    societys misperception of people with dis-

    abilities, more so evident in children

    whose uncertainty and, sadly, sometimes

    negative view of those with special needs

    is based purely on a lack of knowledge and

    understanding, says marketing director

    Nicky de Beer.

    With empathy and compassion being

    emotions best instilled at a young age, the

    organisation created a campaign which

    could be shared with children of school go-

    ing age in a fun, informative way.

    The entire programme, which lasts no

    more than fifteen minutes and can be easi-

    ly slotted into an assembly, consists of a

    short one-act play which touches on sever-

    al aspects regarding disabilities including

    theuseof thewordretard inaderogatory

    way.

    In essence it teaches the children to ap-

    preciate the difference in others, she

    adds.

    A short Powerpoint presentation about

    the Danil and Friends Fund and what it

    strives to achieve, along with an interac-

    tive game which encourages children to

    view each individuals packaging in a

    different light, ends the presentation.

    The excitement and eagerness with

    which our campaign was received at both

    Mikro Primary in Kuils River and Bastion

    Primary in Brackenfell, have given us a re-

    newed appreciation for just how necessary

    a programme of this nature is, and we en-

    courage all educational institutions to con-

    sider introducing our programme to their

    students, says De Beer.

    todels Nurseries in Bellville received a

    platinum award and was not only

    named the best large garden centre in

    the Western Cape, but also in South Africa,

    at the Garden Centre Associations (GCA)

    award ceremony held in Stellenbosch on

    Wednesday 8 June.

    ManagingdirectorNickStodel says it felt

    a bit like being at the Oscars as the various

    branches of Stodels walked away with no

    less than 13 awards.

    The Bellville branch took top honours for

    thebest garden caredepartment and thebest

    outdoor plants, while staffer Nonkumbuzo

    (Lucy) Baba received the Young Retailer of

    the Year award. This award is for a retailer

    under the age of 35 who shows promise and

    is committed to the industry.

    Lucy, who has been with us for seven

    years, has been promoted several times due

    to her initiative, enthusiasm, hardwork and

    going beyond what is expected. She has

    helped improve the sales and customer rela-

    tions in our nursery department and we are

    thrilled that her drive, positivity and deter-

    mination have been recognised, says Nick.

    The majority of South Africas leading

    gardencentres belong to theGCA.Part of the

    anonymous judging criteria includes check-

    LEWENSKIEKIE

    n Ope brief

    aan ons

    Bok-afrigter

    Beste Allister

    Dalk is dit die Franse wyn en die

    smaaklike Europese cuisine wat veroor-

    saak dat jou ingevoerde Springbokke so

    bietjie oorgewig en lusteloos op die

    speelveld lyk.

    Of dalk is die aanpassing van die

    swaar, nat velde in Europa na die harde,

    vinnige velde van Suid-Afrika te moeilik

    om in n kort tydjie te maak.

    Maar iets veroorsaak dat die Vermeu-

    lens en Louws van die lewe net n

    skaduwee van hulself was in die eerste

    twee toetse teen die Iere. So bietjie

    loodvoetig en lomp, n?

    Om daardie rede wil ek jou aanraai om

    maar te hou by die Suid-Afrikaners wat

    hul brood op eie bodem verdien.

    En plaaslike spelers, Allister, wat op

    huidige spelpeil hul plek in die span

    verdien.

    Ons praat nie hier van die regte

    kleursamestelling van die span nie. Ons

    praat ook nie hier

    van ervaring nie.

    My beroep op jou

    is juis om te

    vergeet van erva-

    ring en prestasies

    uit die verre

    verlede. Frik du

    Preez en Naas

    Botha gaan byvoor-

    beeld nie nou die

    oplossing wees nie.

    Ook nie Victor of

    Jean nie.

    Kies die ouens

    wat vanjaar

    uitgeblink het in

    die superrugby-kompetisie. Manne soos

    Ruan Combrinck, Warren Whiteley en

    Jaco Kriel. Kyk net watter reuse-verskil

    Ruan en Warren al klaar gemaak het.

    Daars ander spelers ook. Maar ek wil

    nou nie t voorskriftelik klink nie, want

    jy sal dalk s dis maklik om van die

    kantlyn af raad te gee.

    En dit is seker, maar tog wil ek my

    beskeie mening uitspreek en jou vra om

    jou spanne met die oog op die toekoms te

    kies. Oor vier jaar wil jy n ervare span

    na die Wreldbekertoernooi neem, nie n

    ouetehuis (soos jy weet wie) nie.

    Gee hierdie opkomende sterre die

    geleentheid om ervaring op te doen al

    verloor jy aanvanklik n paar toetse en al

    s die ondersteuners en media ook wat.

    Maar teen die volgende Wreldbeker-

    toernooi gaan jy die laaste lag. Want dan

    gaan jy n span vol jong, hardebaarde

    saamvat, wat die stampe en stote van

    toetsrugby ken en onder die knie het.

    Dis die enigste manier om te roll,

    Allister! Trust me on this one!

    gebruik weens vrees vir viktimisasie).

    The other day it was reported

    that 300 members of one party

    in the Western Cape jumped

    ship to join the opposition.

    This tells me one of two

    things:

    They all suddenly had an

    epiphany about the bad

    policies of the previous party,

    or they were promised some-

    thing.

    Now this is nothing new and

    it is perceived to work to the

    benefit of the party gaining the

    new members. It does not.

    It does however, unfortunate-

    ly, just show how shallow

    some people are when it comes

    to election time as they are

    serving themselves and not the

    communities they supposedly

    represent. As soon as a better

    offer comes along, they will

    jump again.

    There is one description for

    actions like this, and its called

    political whoring.

    It is indeed encouraging and

    comforting that Eskom is

    training its personnel suitably

    to operate its nuclear power

    station, before it blows up and

    takes all of Cape Town with it

    (Scarce nuclear skills har-

    nessed, TB Table View, 15

    June). However, what Eskom

    also needs to tell us and

    prove to the public is that it

    has the necessary plan and the

    money in reserve to clean up

    the mess that is left behind

    once a nuclear power station is

    decommissioned. This part of

    the equation nobody talks

    about all one hears is that

    nuclear power is cheap, but the

    fact that the costs associated

    with the clean-up after decom-

    missioning run into billions, is

    swept under the carpet.

    Germany is currently

    decommissioning all of its

    Cloud of ignorance

    over nuclear tech

    I have the same problem as

    many people I know. My TV

    licence was due end of Februa-

    ry which I paid in January.

    Although I have paid it, I

    keep on receiving numerous

    SMSes demanding payment.

    Despite my responding to the

    SABC via email and them

    acknowledging my payment, I

    still receive the SMSes.

    I take it as a joke and do not

    waste my time in contacting

    them as it falls on deaf ears. I

    put it down to poor administra-

    tive skills! I have been receiv-

    ing these SMSes for the past

    four months its a joke! They

    need to train their people in the

    administrative field!

    you must be at least vigilant

    enough to see through the

    nuclear power stations, and it

    has been found that the cost of

    making it safe for other

    occupation, is currently

    something in the region of

    R80 billion per station!

    It could be argued that

    another such power station

    near St Francis / Oyster Bay is

    not such a bad location, as it

    can be shut off from public

    access after decommissioning

    for decades, but the same

    cannot be said about Koeberg.

    This one is being surrounded

    more and more by residential

    suburbs, ignorant of the associ-

    ated dangers of nuclear radia-

    tion, which can easily happen

    by accident and by which

    time its too late. To even

    consider building another one

    nearby, or anywhere within

    50km of Cape Towns boundary,

    is just plain stupid and irre-

    sponsible. Any new nuclear

    power station should be built, if

    at all, as far from human

    habitation as possible some-

    thing we are certainly not short

    of in this country.

    Its high time we stop being

    starry-eyed about nuclear

    power. It might be cheap, but it

    certainly is anything but cheap

    to build, if properly done, and

    far from cheap to clean up the

    site after use, never mind all

    the safe waste disposal costs

    over the years. A big shroud

    hangs over much of the issues

    associated with nuclear power,

    and the public is being kept

    ignorant on purpose.

    ie bestuur enuitvoerende ko-

    miteelede van Glacier van

    Sanlam se kantore in Sporti-

    ca-singel in Tygervallei, het op

    Vrydag 3 Junie hul moue opgerol

    en die area rondom hul kantore

    skoongemaak.

    As n maatskappy wat daarop

    roem dat ons wreldklasdiens aan

    ons klante lewer, moet ons omge-

    wing ook ons waardes weerspiel.

    Ons ry elke dag in en uit na die

    kantore en sien dan hoe l die pa-

    piere en ander gemors rond en het

    besluit om iets daaraan te doen.

    Ons het ook opgelet dat die gras

    oor die sypaadjies groei en het die

    sny daarvan ook sommer by die

    skoonmaak-operasie gevoeg, s

    Anton Raath, uitvoerende hoof

    van die maatskappy.

    Die senior bestuur het besluit

    om die leiding in die skoonmaak-

    operasie te neemdeur self die voor-

    beeld te stel.

    Voor ons op n dag en datum be-

    sluit het, het ons die planonderme-

    kaar bespreek om te kyk of daar be-

    langstelling is en watter dag almal

    sal pas. Binne n kort tyd het vry-

    willigers hul dienste aangebied en

    ons het toe besluit om op 3 Junie

    met die skoonmaak te begin.

    Die dag van die skoonmaakak-

    sie is ons dasse en pakke die mid-

    dag weggepak en verruil vir

    werksklere.

    Die span het met hul eie toerus-

    ting opgedaag vir die skoonmaak-

    aksie endit het gewissel vanharke,

    grawe, grassnyers en swart sakke

    en almal het aan die werk ge-

    spring, het Raath ges.

    Deur die loop van die middag is

    sowat 50 vullissakke met papiere,

    bottels en gras gevul. Glacier daag

    nou ander ondernemings in die

    omgewing uit om hul voorbeeld te

    volg en ook hul eie skoonmaak-ak-

    sie van stapel te stuur.

    Die skoonmaak-aksie het vir

    baie opmerkings van ander lede

    van ondernemings in die omge-

    wing gesorg. Hulle het kamtig hul

    hulp aangebied en almal aange-

    moedig om vinniger te werk.

    Ons sounet die een skoonmaak-

    aksie doen, maar n tweede een is

    nie uitgesluit nie, want ons het ge-

    sien dat daar verder af in die pad

    ook rommel rondl. Die lekkerste

    was egter die lafenis wat almal kon

    geniet nadat die dag se hande-ar-

    beid afgehandel is, s Raath.

    DESIRE RORKE

    @dezzierorke

    What some called a shock-tactic

    advertisement campaign, im-

    proved the overall seatbelt compli-

    ance in Cape Town by an astonish-

    ing 27%.

    The northern suburbs measured

    the highest compliance rate with

    72% of all vehicle occupants wear-

    ing a seatbelt.

    Snap surveys were done before

    the launch of the campaign in

    March and again on Tuesday 3

    May, six weeks into the campaign.

    In the northern suburbs the sur-

    veys took place on the corner of

    Voortrekker and De La Ray Roads

    in Bellville, during two time slots

    in peak-time morning and after-

    noon traffic, with 303 vehicles ob-

    served.

    According to the results that

    were released by the Department

    of Transport and PublicWorks last

    week, 72% of all the vehicle occu-

    pantswerewearing seatbelts in the

    second survey, compared to the

    51% compliance rate of the pre-

    campaign survey.

    In the CBD post-campaign com-

    pliancewasmeasured at 66% 10%

    higher, in Mitchells Plain 42%

    16% higher, and in Khayelitsha it

    remained 30%.

    The First Kiss campaign was

    released in March this year, with

    a hard-hitting television commer-

    cial at the core of it. The commer-

    cial, which was the subject of heat-

    ed debate levelled at its graphic

    portrayal, shows the consequences

    of not buckling up.

    Donald Grant, minister of trans-

    port and public works in the West-

    ern Cape, was elated with these re-

    sults, saying the result of the cam-

    paigns impact was successful.

    International best practice and

    in-depth research into local audi-

    ence perceptions drove the devel-

    opment and production of the ad,

    with an impact assessment compo-

    nent built into the project. The as-

    sessment of the campaigns impact

    has proven that the scientific, evi-

    dence driven methodologies em-

    ployed to create First Kiss really

    worked, he says.

    According to Grant these im-

    provements were driven mainly

    by behaviour change in Belville,

    the CBD andMitchells Plain, with

    less impact recorded in Khayelit-

    sha, despite a concentration of out-

    door advertising supporting the

    commercial in the area.

    This aspect of the campaign has

    been extremely influential in how

    we design the research into our

    next TV advertising campaign,

    which is centred on our #Booze-

    FreeRoads theme for November,

    December and January. It is also

    driving the development of a new

    activation of First Kiss for Sep-

    tembers #AlwaysBuckleUp

    theme, he says.

    and online, can be viewed here:

    ES, Park Flow en die

    VRCID het op Saterdag

    11 Junie die Tielman

    Marais-park op die hoek van

    Langenhoven- en Alexandra-

    straat in Boston skoongemaak.

    Volgens LizetMulder, organi-

    seerder van Operasie Tielman

    Marais-park, was dit die eerste

    wintersessie nadat daar reeds

    drie somersessies van Februa-

    rie tot April gehou is.

    Ons was Saterdagmeer gefo-

    kus op die opruiming en her-

    winningvanrommel indiepark

    en het nie families uitgenooi

    soos tydens die somersessies

    nie. Tydens di sessies kon fa-

    milies van oud en jonk en ook

    hul vierbenige vriende pret in

    die park h, het sy ges.

    Die park is gele in n boomry-

    ke omgewing agter die aftree-

    oord Huis Andr van der Walt

    en die krieketveld van die Hor-

    skool D.F. Malan.

    Die doel van die skoonmaak

    van die park was om ons bure

    te ontmoet, die vars lug te geniet

    en om ook die openbare plekke

    in die noordelike voorstede te

    verken. Sonder dat enigiemand

    agtergekom het, dat arbeid en

    sweet hiermee gepaard sou

    gaan, het ons die park skoonge-

    maak, het sy bygevoeg.

    Die opruiming word deur

    VRCID ondersteun, wat die se-

    kerheid verskaf het en ook met

    die rommelverwydering gehelp

    het.

    Ons het werkers by MES ge-

    werf om die leiers te wees en al-

    mal wat opgedaag het, is in vier

    groepe verdeel.

    Die vier groepe was Hawke-

    eye Eco-brickers, Base-camp

    Bears, Recycle Recruiters en

    MankMasters.Almalwasgewa-

    pen met hoede, tuinhandskoe-

    ne, waterbottels en gemaklike

    skoene. Toe het ons die rommel

    en al die dooie diere in die park

    en die kanaal ingepak, het sy

    gelag.

    Ongelukkig was daar geen in-

    woners of gemeenskapsorgani-

    sasies van Boston wat kom help

    het nie.

    Drie sakke rommel is uit die

    kanaal verwyder, een en n hal-

    we sak is vir herwinning inge-

    samel, drie eco-bakstene is ge-

    maak en onherwinbare rommel

    is weggestuur.

    Ons volgende skoonmaak-

    aksie is op Saterdag 9 Julie en

    dan weer op Saterdag 13 Augus-

    tus. Ons soek ook nog vrywilli-

    gers om te komhelp, maar hulle

    moet onthou dat al sous dit,

    skyn die son of waai die wind,

    sal die skoonmaakaksie voort-

    gaan. Ons vra net twee ure van

    jou tyd om te kom help met die

    opruiming in die parkie.

    Met die winter hier, kan die

    water in die kanaal weer vrylik

    vloei as ons die gemors daaruit

    haal, het sy bygevoeg.

    A

    panther never blushes.

    If this phrase makes you

    think of mushrooms,

    then you have probably gone

    mushroom foraging at Delheim

    wine estate.

    Armedwith gumboots andwarm

    jackets, the knowledge shared by

    GaryGoldman, amushroom fundi,

    and a good shot of glhwein, a

    group of about 40 people set off to

    the misty pine forest on Delheim

    on Youth Day last week to look for

    wild mushrooms.

    Everybody was hoping to find

    baskets full of porcini (Boletus ed-

    ulis) according to chefs the Rolls

    Royce ofmushrooms, selling at pri-

    ces from R380 per kilogram.

    Vuvuzela, one of the farms Jack

    Russells, runs along eagerly. The

    pine forest opened up a whole new

    world to this newcomer.

    Normally this reporter would

    have only noticed the birdsong, the

    beautiful trees and how steep and

    slippery the hill was after a few

    days of winter rain, but through

    the eyes of a mushroom forager,

    the bed of leaves under the trees

    came alive with its hidden trea-

    sures beautiful fairytale bright

    red mushrooms, purplish ones,

    dotted brown ones, but mostly lit-

    tle brown jobs.

    It seemed far more difficult out

    in the field than Gary made it

    sound back in the historic cellar

    where he made his presentation.

    Gary explained that due to the

    heavy rain the mushrooms die off

    rather quickly and becomemushy,

    and their colours wash out, which

    makes identification more diffi-

    cult.

    There are over 100 000 types of

    mushrooms, of which 100 are poi-

    sonous and only 10 are deadly. Of

    these deadly ones, four can be

    found in South Africa. It is there-

    fore best to learn at least what

    these four look like,Garywarned.

    What colour a mushroom bruis-

    es is often the secret to identifying

    it, like the poisonous panther (Am-

    anita pantherina) that looks exact-

    ly like the blusher (Amanita rubes-

    cens) the latter is delicious, but

    the panther kills.

    While they both have a skirt and

    white gill, the blusher becomes

    reddish in colour when bruised,

    while the panther does not change

    its colour hence the

    phrase a panther never

    blushes.

    Some mushrooms,

    like the Cape russula

    (Russula capensis), one

    can only eat when they

    are young and fresh, be-

    cause the older ones can

    be attacked by another

    fungus. Another, like

    the shaggy ink cap (Cop-

    rinus comatus)must not

    be eatenwhen they start

    to darken at the bottom.

    The common ink cap

    cannot be consumed

    within three days before

    and after drinking alco-

    hol. Others like the Tur-

    key Tail can assist in

    treating breast cancer,

    while others lower cho-

    lesterol or help for other

    ailments.

    Then there are chick-

    enof thewoods (Laetipo-

    rus sulphureus), which

    tastes exactly like chick-

    en, and the shrimp rus-

    sula (Russula xerampelina), which

    smells just like shrimp, thedyeball

    or dog turd fungus, which grows

    only underneath Eucalyptus trees.

    On the top of the list of poisonous

    ones is the death cap (Amanita

    phalloides) which can easily be

    identified by its volva (sack) at

    the root. They are highly poison-

    ous and break down the human or-

    gans such as the liver and kidneys.

    It causes 95% of deaths due to

    mushrooms.

    Identify mushrooms correctly is

    not for beginners, and so it seems,

    neither is cooking them.

    Whencookingmushrooms,Gary

    advises, one must remember that

    they consist of 98% water and

    therefore it is best to use high heat

    to cook them, otherwise it becomes

    watery.

    That they absorb water and be-

    comes mushy is also the reason

    why you should never wash mush-

    rooms, but just brush orwipe them

    off before use, he says.

    Mushroom foraging at Delheim

    was started six years ago by Nora

    Sperling-Thiel, who grewup on the

    farm and as a child learned the

    skill from her mother when they

    went foraging for mushrooms at

    certain times of the year.

    It only struck me many years

    later that it was such a privilege

    and special experience that we

    should share it with others, she

    says.

    She and Gary believe the moon

    has something to do with the

    emerging of mushrooms.

    Gary says mushrooms grow

    from mycelium, the fungal orga-

    nism of the mushroom, which he

    describes as the earths internet.

    Themoon sees themycelium as

    a body of water and then pulls the

    mushrooms out, he says.

    To help people identify mush-

    rooms correctly, they can post pho-

    tographs of the mushrooms on

    https://vmus.adu.org.za.

    One needs a permit to forage

    mushrooms in forests such as in

    the Newlands forest, usually only

    obtainable from the end ofMay un-

    til the end of July.

    VFreepermits are issuedby theNewlands

    Forest Sanparks conservation office.

    V Tickets for mushroom foraging are

    available from Computicket. For more in-

    formation about mushroom foraging,

    Mushroom foraging a delicate art

    The mushroom fundi Gary Goldman here explains to the group how to identify certain types of mushrooms. On the

    far left (in purple) is Nora Sperling-Thiel on the lookout for more gems.

    Elna and Franz Holm from Durbanville show off

    their collection of pine-ring mushrooms (Lactari-

    us deliciosus), which are most popular in the

    Western Cape. If it is cut, the hollow stem turns

    into a pineapple ring. Franz used to join his

    grandmother as a child in mushroom foraging in

    Sasolburg. PHOTOS: ESM ERASMUS

    Gerald Ponte from Plattekloof found

    this fly agaric mushroom.

    This split gill mushroom was

    discovered on the bark of a tree. It

    has medical qualities.

    The panther mushroom is very

    poisonous and can easily be mistak-

    en for the blusher.

    This bright red mushroom, the fly

    agaric, is also poisonous when eaten

    and can be used to kill flies in a very

    creative way. You must slice it, dry it

    and you are ready to tackle your fly

    problem.
