Tackling drug abuse in schools>> Communities need to get involved to help prevent drug addiction

TANIA SANDBERG>>[email protected]

BIKERSAgainst Drugs (BAD)hosted a communitymeeting on 19 September,

to raise awareness around drugabuse.

The guest speaker, Sam PillayfromtheAntiDrugForuminChat-sworth,addressedthe meetingwhichinvolvedtaking initiativesto implement solutions in schools.

Pillay said that Chatsworth is aclose knit community thatunfortunately made the news for

the high rate of drug abuseabout10yearsago.Hesaidthat the communitymight have problems,but they take care oftheir township.

Pillay said that theymade the mistake ofcalling heroin by itsstreet name “sugars”.

He said somehow, peoplethink that “sugars” is not as

addictive as the name indi-cates, yet heroin is one of themostaddictive substances in theworld,and one of the most difficultaddictions to beat.

He said that they realised that

even if the dealer is arrested, theaddictwillget thedrugfromsome-whereelse,whichiswhytheyhavelaunched the school initiative.

“We started with the highschools, only to realise that wemissed the boat and have nowstarted in Grade R.We introducedthe ‘Smart Club’ concept atschools where five pupils and ateacher are empowered throughafourdayworkshopondrugabuse.Addicts share their stories andshow them how to get organised,then they go back to their schoolsto set up a ‘Smart Club’,” he said.

Pillay said the ‘Smart Club’concept is sustainable as thechildren are made aware of theproblem on a constant basis.Facilitatorsalsovisit theschools toensure it is done.

Childrenmakesuggestionsandsome of them are implemented.Pillay emphasised the importanceof getting to the children beforedrug dealers do.

He said that it takes just a fewpeople in a community tomobilisechange.

Councillor André BeetgethankedAmanzimtotiHighschoolas the first to get on board.

“Take it upon yourselves as acommunity to prevent drugaddiction,” he said.

Water shortagestarts to bite

SETON THOMPSON>>[email protected]

THE “shedding” of the water supply on themid-South Coast, which was a threat a monthago, is developing into a challenging presence to

the community and the economy.As the prospects of salvation by rain or intervention

by the authorities pale from view, several local institu-tions are spelling out the immediate consequences.

Umdoni and Ugu municipalities are warning thecommunities of the areas excluded from restrictions,suchasScottburgh,that“it istheirfortuitousproximity

PHOTO: SETON THOMPSONThis tank contains Umdoni RetirementVillage’s reserve water storage, providing atleast 72 hours of water usage at normal ratesof consumption.

Facts about the crisis

SHAMI Harrichunder, communications manager atUmgeni Water, spells out some facts about thewater crisis:

“Reduced rainfall in the mid south coast has seendam levels fall sharply, exacerbated by high Springtemperatures. If the El Nino weather phenomenonoccurs, as seems likely, the situation could worsen.

This trend could continue until January 2015, thetraditionally rainy period in the Umgeni Watercatchment areas. Inadequate volumes of raw watercould be available to domestic, business andindustrial users in the Middle South Coast region.

The three dams in the region have fallendrastically. This is a crisis situation as there isinsufficient water available to meet demand.

The authorities are striving to create awarenessamongst consumers and impose water conservationmeasures and the development of contingencymeasures.

Water shortages are not an immediate concernfor the Mgeni System supplying the eThekwiniregion. Depending on rainfall, it could become anissue in mid-2015.

This joint and earnest appeal is being made toconsumers by eThekwini Metro, uMgungundlovuDM, iLembe DM, Sembcorp Siza Water, Ugu DM,Harry Gwala DM, Msunduzi LM and Umgeni Waterto please use water sparingly.

Ifwaterconservationmeasuresareimplementednow, there may be sufficient water available to meetfuture needs.

Here are some water conservation tips that canbe applied with immediate effect:

•Turn taps off between washing face, brushingteeth or shaving.

•A five-minute shower saves up to 400 litres aweek over a bath..

•Use low-flow showerheads, dual-flush toiletmechanisms and water-efficient washingmachines.

•Fill kettles, pots with only enough waternecessary for the purpose.

•Reducedtoiletflushcansave20%oftotalwaterconsumption. Insert a 2-litre soft drink bottle ofwaterandalittlesandtoaddweight, intothecistern.

•A leaking toilet can waste up to 100 000 litresof water a year. Fix it.

•Avoid unnecessary flushing. Dispose of tissues,insects and other waste in the trash. Flushing uses12 litres of water.

•Use “grey water” from baths, washing machinesand other safe sources to flush toilet.

•Do not over-fill or excessively backwash yourswimming pool.

•Use a bucket to wash your car. A hose uses upto 30 litres a minute.

•Do not pour paint and chemicals down the drain.•Farmers please keep toxic insecticides away

from water sources and streams.

Cansa Relay for Life a huge success

TANIA SANDBERG>>[email protected]

DESPITEtestyweatherconditions,thecommuni-ty came out in their hundreds to support the sec-ond Cansa Relay for Life in Amanzimtoti.

“One person can make a difference. Nowhereis that more evident than with the story of theAmerican Cancer Society Relay For Life, which be-gan in Tacoma, Washington, as the City of DestinyClassic 24-Hour Run Against Cancer. In the mid-1980s, Dr. Gordy Klatt, a Tacoma colorectal sur-geon, wanted to enhance the income of his localAmerican Cancer Society office. He decided topersonally raise money for the fight by doingsomething he enjoyed, running marathons,” ex-plained master of ceremony Gregory Naidoo atthe opening of the event.

He said that in May 1985, Klatt spent a gruel-ling 24 hours circling the track at Baker Stadiumat the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma formore than 83 miles.

“Throughout the night, friends paid $25 to runor walk 30 minutes with him. He raised $27 000to fight cancer. That first year, nearly 300 of Dr.Klatt’s friends, family, and patientswatched as he ran and walked the course,” headded.

“While he circled the track over those24 hours, he thought about how others could takepart. He envisioned a 24-hour team relay eventthat could raise more money to fight cancer.Months later he pulled together a small commit-tee to plan the first team relay event known asthe City of Destiny Classic 24-Hour Run AgainstCancer,” he explained.

He said the first American Relay for Life waslaunched in 1986.

“This year, as the Cancer Society of Americacelebrates 30 years, he passed away at the age of 71,”hestated,askingattendeestobowtheirheadsinhonourof this visionary.

“Today Relay For Life is a life-changing event thatgives everyone in communities across the globe achance to celebrate the lives of people who havebattled cancer, remember loved ones lost, and fightback against the disease,” he said.

Relay For Life is conducted not simply to raise funds,but to involve new communities, give the Societya local presence, and provide communities the opportu-nity to own the mission. Because the Relay providesgrassroots access to the population, it is a critical meansof achieving the Society’s 2015 goals.

Amanzimtoti was certainly up to the challenge. Formore pictures from the event, visit www.upper-coastfever.co.za.

to the lines of supply from the north that has savedthem and not an inherent right. They would be illadvised to think that the threats to the water supplyare not relevant to them”.

A second example, Sezela Sugar Mill, one of theiconic pillars of the local economy, is facing adeterioratingwatersupplysituationandisunderstoodto be energetically investigating short termalternatives. At this stage, production has not beensignificantly affected.

At the area’s largest retirement facility - UmdoniRetirement Village at Pennington - which is within thewater restriction area, management has acknowl-edged the crisis by instructing its more than 600residents to refrain from watering their gardens byhose or containers. Acknowledging that this maythreaten the survival of gardens in which residentshave invested heavily, chief executive John Websterhas pointed out that the provision of potable waterin the current crisis is more important. Other stepsbeing contemplated include diversion of boreholewater for toilets, but that may not be adequate forbathing too.

In the meantime, water authorities are striving toincrease the supply of water from the northern supplysources to supplement local supplies to Umzinto andsurrounding areas. These include drawing from otherlocal rivers and increasing the off-take from sourcesin the eThekweni area.

Simple maths

MR Seton Thompson iscorrectinsayingtherearealternate plans that can

(and should immediately) beimplemented, to alleviate ourwater problem (Upper CoastFever, 12 September 2014).

Whatheisnotsayingisthat thisis the absolute correct time tode-silt the dam with heavy earthmoving equipment now, beforeany rains make it necessary tode-siltviawaterdredging,whichisa much slower and more difficultmethod.

Alright I know we are talkingmillions of rands, but if nothing isdone now, even with continuousrain,wewill still be on thebrink ofwater rationing forever becausethedamisnevergoingtomatchtheneed of the area at 10% livecapacity.

Surely there is someone withenough whack to authorize thereversal of what is a disaster.

Does the Department of WaterAffairs know of our dilemmashould the oppositionparty not bebrought into this?

Bear in mind that the removalof just100tonsofsilt isequaltojust10 truckloads but will yield 100000 litres of water. Simple maths- we cannot hope to remove 1 000000 tons of silt immediately but alittle will help a lot and perhapsnext year, a budget could be puttogether for a more extensivecampaign.

Errol dÓliveiraUmdoni Retirement Village

resident.

Who taught the clowns?I SEE that the ANC finds the behaviourin Parliament, particularly over the pastweek, unacceptable and proposes to dosomething about it.

While I have to agree with them, onefeels that a prime cause is the mannerin which the ANC exercises its power asby far the most dominant party.

Understandably, the party with the

most members and therefore votes hasthe right - indeed the duty - to ensurethat its mandate is achieved. But muchdepends upon how that is done. Far toooften, the big majority is looked uponas an excuse to ridicule and humiliatethe opposition.

The ANC gets away with that withthe ‘older parties’ that have been

browbeaten into expecting nothingbetter. But the EFF - the product of theirown loins as it were - was tutored attheir knees into showing equalarrogance and contempt and is dishingit back.

The “honourable Malema” is aproduct of the ANC, groomed intobrowbeating opposition. Too bad forthe ANC that in his eyes, they are nowthe opposition.

Much the same applies tomunicipal councils.

Big majorities at eThekweni, andeven Umdoni, and speakers withparty hats on have produced the lackof respect for the opposition. If theEFF gets into those councils in 2016,as it no doubt will, watch out ANC.

7Whitewashing and pickling techniques>> There are a number of techniques for applying white stains that don’t necessitate losing the grain of your wood

WHITEWASHING your furniture or woodaccessories can brighten the look ofalmost any room in a house.

Here are two techniques for adding somewhite without using paint

WhitewashingWhitewashing is a technique that allows you

to brighten your wood without hiding the grainpattern. Methods for staining woods white varyaccording to the type wood you’re planning tofinish. Whitewashing is best suited for pine.Pickling is a technique best used on oak.

•Applying awhitestain allowsyoutobrightena wood surface without hiding the grain pattern.

•Painting wood furniture white is one way tobrighten a room, but the disadvantage is thatpaint is opaque, so it covers and conceals thenatural grain of the wood. There are techniquesfor applying white stains that don’t necessitatelosing the grain of your wood. Until recently, thistechnique involved taking ordinary paint andthinning it down to create a white stain. Todaythere are white stains commercially availablethat take the guesswork out of staining woodwhite. White stains are widely available in water-based or oil-based forms.

•Water-based stains dry quickly and produceless fumes or odours. Cleanup is also easier withwater-based stains. Soap and water is all that’sneeded, as long as the paint hasn’t dried.

•Oil-based stains offer longer working timessince they dry more slowly but, since they do giveoff hazardous fumes, should only be used in

well-ventilated areas.•Whenever applying stains of any type, it’s

always best to test the stain on a sample of scrapwood of the same wood-type as the piece you’llbe working on.

•Though stains can typically be applied usingeither a brush or rag, white stains can also be ap-plied using a brush.

•Whitewash stain is ideally suited to pine.Apply the white stain with a brush. Once thestain has set up for two to three minutes, workthe stain into the wood using a rag and wipeaway the excess stain - wiping gently with thegrain. Make sure to work white stain into anyknots that may be in the wood to accentuate theknot. Once it’s applied, the white stain allows thegrain to show through, but it tones down theyellow look of the pine.

Important: Stir stains well. Pigments tend tosettle to the bottom of the can.

Pickling• Pickling is the best choice for white-staining

oak. When pickling oak wood, apply the stainwith a brush, but it’s important to wipe the stainagainst the grain. Because of the large pores andthe natural grain pattern of oak, this techniqueis essential for working the stain down into thepores of the wood. Once you’ve worked the whitestain well into the pores of the wood, use a cleanrag to wipe away any excess.

•Whether you choose pickling or whitewash-ing, both of these techniques simply serve tolighten the colour of the wood. Neither offersprotection. Once the whitewash has dried, usea clear water-based finish to protect the wood.Gently brush on the clear finish to protect boththe wood and the stain.

Important: Avoid using oil-based protectivefinishes over whitewashing or pickling. Oil-basedfinishes have a yellowish look that will detractfrom the white colouring.

Tung oil is a versatile and easy-to-applyfinish. It penetrates into the pores of wood andprotects it from within.

FEVERSCHOOL SCENE

Toti Primary involvedin community clean upTOTI Conservacy’s Angus Pyke

approached AmanzimtotiPrimary to participate in the

community cleanup, a weekprior to the beach cleanup (20September).

Amanzimtoti Primary’s Gradefour to seven pupils enthusiasticallyparticipated in the event whichtook place on Thursday, 18September.

Pupils covered the area from theshoppingcentre inDanPienaarDriveto Retief Street. Collection bags andgloves were delivered, along with asmall donation of pencil cases fromPlastic SA, and water.

“We used these as lucky drawprizes to give to the hardworkingpupils as a reward. As an eco-school,it is part of our responsibility to dowhat we can for the environment,”said Amanzimtoti Primaryspokesperson, Kirsten Stannard.

Kingsway studentbecomes three dayjournalistMPILONHLE NGCOBO

PHONES ringing. Papers rustling. Threepeople talking at once. A lady is cleaningaround you. This is your average workingenvironment for probably most of your life- and you applied for it.

I, Mpilonhle Ngcobo, a student ofKingsway High, opted to spend my workingweek with the Upper Coast Fever.

I have to say that any doubt I had beforehas been cleared completely! The journal-ist I was shadowing doesn’t get nearlyenoughpraiseorrecognitionforherefforts.I learnt so much from her in the skills andfactual department about the journalismprofession over the last three days.

I’ve never pictured myself spendingcountless hours working in an office job,but after experiencing it, I would nowgladly do so as long as I’m doing what Ienjoy. My temporary colleagues were apleasure to work with as well. There wereof course a few ups and downs, but nothingI couldn’t handle. Learning how to look atinformation and stories from variousperspectives was interesting.

The only mundane aspect of theprofession is having to wake up everymorning, but aren’t they all like that?

On my last day, dad came to fetch meearlier than anticipated but I swiftlychased him away, simply because I wasenjoying myself too much to leave. It wasgreat being an adult for three days,although I would’ve appreciated an entireweek. I would gladly come back to thiscompany for more experience.
