>> Deepvale Park residents claim that entire Marburg community is atriskCANDYCE KRISHNA>>[email protected]

RESIDENTS inDeepvale Park inMarburg have voiced theirconcern and fears about two

sewage spills in the area that, if leftunattended any longer, will result inthe entire community getting sick.

Deepvale Park consists of anumberofhouses andthespill,whichbegan four weeks ago when a man-holewasdamagedduringanexcava-tion, stand to be affected.

According to one resident, SelvinMoodley, the owner of the parkwished to expand on the develop-ment and hired someone to do someearth-moving a month ago.

Somewhere during the process asewage leak erupted and, accordingto residents “it has become worse”.

“I notified Aroon Mohamed, theownerof thedevelopment on the firstday I saw that the manhole wasdamaged. He told me to call hisplumber,” said Moodley.

“I was upset at this statement as itwas not my duty to call the plumber.I told him he had to sort this out as itwas his responsibility.”

Moodley said he notified the UguDistrict Municipality which sent outhealth inspectors andenvironmentalhealthofficials toassessthesituation.

“They’ve assessed the situationmany times over the weeks, but nosolutions were brought forward. Inthe meantime we have to live in thisunhealthy environment with thestrong stench. There is also an infes-tation of flies.”

Ann Nogwaza echoed Moodley’ssentiments saying “this is un-acceptable”.

The other spill, at the bottom ofMahatma Gandhi Road adjacent toDeepvale Park, is thought to havebeen in existence for many months.

There are two trenches divertingraw sewage from another damagedmanhole into the bushy area on thestreet.

About seven metres from where

the trenches end, is a poolwhere rawsewage is collecting.

“I was shocked to learn about thisspill. It’s obviously been happeningover a few months as those trenchesare filled with sewage,” saidMoodley.

When the Fever contactedMohamed he said he was notignoring the problem and wasengaging with officials fromenvironmental affairs about a wayforward. PHOTOS: CANDYCE KRISHNA

Selvin Moodley says something must be done about the sewage spill inDeepvale Park before residents become ill.

“Repairs to the damaged man-hole in Deepvale Park will begintoday at 3pm,” he said on Tues-day.

He added that the sewerageproblems in Mahatma GhandiRoad were more complicated,but a plan as been finalised andwill be implemented.

“That sewerage line will haveto be shut down and the affectedpeople will have to make use of aseptic tank until the matter is re-solved,” he said. The area wardcouncillor, Carole Potter said shefeared that a cholera outbreakmay occur and it won’t only beresidents who are affected, but

children who often pass the areaon their way to the shops.

“The bottom line is that thishas already gone too far for toolong. Itmust be sorted out so thatresidents can live comfortably ina healthy environment. Thispotential health hazard is unac-ceptable,” said Potter.

Deepvale Park residents face health hazard

Margatebiker winsappealMARGATE resident DirkPutter (36) won his appeal atPietermaritzburgHighCourtonTuesday after hewas con-victed and fined R12 000 or12months’ imprisonment inthe Scottburgh Magistrate’sCourt in August 2013.

The motorcyclist wascaught travellingat190km/hon the N2 highway last yearnear Ifafa River bridge on 24February, 2013.

Judges Johan Ploos vanAmstel and Philip Nkosioverturned the convictiononappeal on the grounds thatScottburgh magistrate CJSchoemanhad blundered bynot acquitting Putter at theclose of the state’s case.

Expert witnesses werecalled by the state to provewhether the traffic officershad operated the speed-monitoring device correctly,or to prove whether the ap-paratus used to determinethe speed was capable ofmeasuring it accurately.

The testimony of the ex-pert was vital to the state’scase.

It was also found thatwhenRoadTrafficInspector-ate inspector H. Grotius ap-proached Putter, he couldnot explain how the speed-measuring device workedand maintained during histestimony that he had nocomprehension of how thedevice operated.

He said an expert wouldbe required to testify, howev-er no expert was called.

Having failed tocall anex-pert to testify, the judgesfound that the state had notproveditscaseagainstPutterbeyond reasonable doubt.

Motorist learns the hard way>> ‘I learnt that I owedR800 to the municipality.I paid this withoutasking any because Ithought it was legal’

CANDYCE KRISHNA>>[email protected]

AHIBBERDENE motorist,Jeffrey Metcalfe, says heonlywishes hewas aware of

the information published in theSouth Coast Fever (Know yourrights, 13 June, page 1) before hewas “forced” to pay outstandingcamera-speed fines at a roadblockin Port Shepstone three monthsago.

“I was asked to step out of myvehicle and noticed that anothermotorist was already arguing witha traffic officer saying that he wasnot going to pay his fines.”

“She [the officer] must haveasked the man about six times tosettlehis speeding fines,buthewasadamant and would not.”

Metcalfe claims she suddenlycalledaSAPSpoliceofficerandsaid:“Arrest this man and confiscate hiscar. Take it to the pound.”

The man then co-operated andpaid his fines.

“When it was my turn, I learntthat I owedR800 to themunicipali-ty. I paid this without asking anybecause I thought it was legal. Isaw no need to jot down officer’sname.”

Metcalfe says that was not theend.

Last Wednesday a traffic officerstopped him in Hibberdene and

saidhehadfiveR100camera-speedfines that were outstanding.

“I only knew of one, which waspaid, so I contacted my financialmanager Karen Pienaar at work tofind out about the others as myvehicles are registered in the busi-ness name and are used for busi-ness purposes.”

Pienaar called the HibiscusCoast Municipality and was re-ferred to a person named Lizellevan der Merwe.

“There were in fact five morefines which I had not receivednotices or summonses for. Thewoman asked Karen to call her at

the beginning of every month sothatIcouldavoidbeingstoppedandasked topay finesby trafficofficers.

Metcalfe said this was absurdandwonderedifothermotoristsdidthe same.

“How would she deal with theinflux of calls from thousands ofpeople at the beginning of everymonth?”

He then paid R500 to the officerand received a receipt.

“I wish I knew that it was illegalto threaten motorists with arrestunless there’sawarrantofarrest is-sued, and confiscating cars andlicences at road blocks.”

Farmarsonistsstill at large>> Attack linked to ongoing land disputeGINISILE NDOVELA>>[email protected]

THERE has still been no arrestsmadeafter LenPienaar’s farm,Lion Valley, near Gamalakhe

was set alight by arsonists last weekcausingmillions of rands in damage.

A plastic recycling factory and astoreroomweresetalight intheearlyhours of Saturday morning.

Pienaar said he suspected the at-tack was linked to an ongoing land

dispute he has with the nearbyKwaMavundla clan who are layingclaim to his farm. The clan also helda march a few hours after the attackdemanding that the Department ofRuralDevelopmentandLandReformexpel Pienaar from his farm.

KwaMavundla Land Claim Trustchairperson and spokesperson forthe protesters, Jimmy Mnguni saidtheywant Pienaar to leave as they donot know how he acquired the farm.

AfriForum KwaZulu-Natal co-or-

dinator Chris Fourie said theprotesters’memorandum confirmedAfriForum’s concerns whichindicated that the arson was relatedto the protest march by the clan lastFriday.

“Eight hours after Mr Len Pien-aar’s farm was set alight by arson-ists, the Mavundla and Gamalakhecommunity held a protestmarch andpresented a memorandum of de-mands to representatives of the De-partment of Rural Development and

Land Reform.“Mr Pienaars’ farm, Lion Valley,

was set alightonFridaynightandhisplasticrecyclefactoryandstoreburntto the ground,” said Fourie.

Fourie put it that Inkosi DumisaniMavundla and his council made itclear in the memorandum that theywanted to get rid of Mr Pienaar.

“AsthecommunityofMavundleni,SgedleniLocation,weare fedupwiththe unbearable actions of a farmercalled Mr Pienaar,” reads the memo-

randum.“We are fed up with his animal-

ism. We too, want to show him thatwe can also be violent as he hasbeen to us. We have never been in aquarrel with farmers, but we havetolerated more than enough of MrPienaar. He must leave us in peacebeforewedrivehimoff.Hemustleavebefore violence erupts, we urge thathe leaves.”

Fourie said they will discuss thecontents and threats in thememorandum with their legal teamto determine what action will betaken.

“It isunacceptableandirresponsi-ble of community leaders to makesuch statements,” said Fourie.

MngunisaidPiennarhasmadelife“very difficult” for the community.

“He does notwant our livestock tograze on the farm. He impounds ourgoats and cattle,” said Mnguni.

MargatepolicespokespersonCap-tain Gerald Mfeka confirmed thisweek that Gamalakhe police are stillinvestigating the arsonwith the hopeof arresting the arsonists.

“Noarrestshavebeenmade,” saidMfeka.

Land-sharingproposalopposedGINISILE NDOVELA>>[email protected]

KZN AfriForum Co-ordinator, ChrisFourie says his organisation opposesRuralDevelopmentandLandReformminister’s proposed policy that couldsee farmers being forced to give up50% of their farms to their workers.

This comes after minister GugileNkwinti gave farmers, farm workersandunionsuntil April next year to re-spond to his policy proposals. Theminister said he believes the landshould be shared among those whowork it.

Fourie said AfriForum believesthat it is the ANC-led government’sstrategy to systematically under-mine property rights of the citizens.

“The state first limits propertyrights by means of carefully craftedlegislation and thenassumesde factocontrol over property when it is toolate to oppose the move. AfriForumand other stakeholders are alreadyworking on a series of strategic legalactions aimed at setting legal prece-dents for the protection of propertyrights,” he said.

KwaMavundla community landclaim trust chairperson, JimmyMnguni, said he does not think theproposal by the minister will benefithis community because they areclaimingthe landasacommunity,notas workers.

“Weareclaiming landbacknot themoney.Wewant touse it asacommu-nity of the Inkosi. Many communitymembers donotwork on these farmsand people that work at these farms,come fromother areas.Weneed gov-ernmenttoengagewithallstakehold-ers on this,” he said.

He said they have their own trustfund ready to develop the area.

Parents wantteachers back

>> Teachers contracts not renewed after joining a union

GINISILE NDOVELA>>[email protected]

HLANGANANI Pre-paratory Schoolparents say they are

concerned about the unfairtreatment of teachers whosecontracts were allegedly notrenewed by principal E.E.Galanakis.

A group of parents whovisited the Fever this weekasking to remain anonymousto protect their children saidtwo teacherswere shown thedoor after their contractswere not renewed withoutany valid reason.

“The principal is veryabrupt and extremely rude topupils and the staff. All theparents we consulted withhave the same viewabout theprincipal. We as the parentsappeal to the school govern-ing body to take serious deci-sions about the principal aswe pay the school fees andtheir salaries,” said one of theparents.

The teachers were em-ployed in January and theparents claim their contractswere not renewed becausethey joined a union. A casehas been opened with theCCMA, and the matter is stillpending.

The parents also claimed

the pupils are being victim-ised. “Here ifapupil’sparentshavenotpaid fees, the child istold to home and they arelocked out of the school.”

They claim the best solu-tion to the problem is to re-move the principal, who theysay is over 65 and “should beretired anyway”.

School Governing Body(SGB) chairperson SibusisoMbanjwa said he has heardthat their contracts were notrenewedas theywereonpro-bation.

“We will meet and hearfrom the principal why shedidn’t renew their contracts,but on the phone she told me

that parents had not paidschool fees. This is a privateschool relyingongovernmentsubsidy and parents pay-ments.”

Mbanjwa said theywill in-vestigate whether their dis-missal was fair as they haveheard that the dismissedteachers had lodged cases ofvictimisation and unfair dis-crimination against the prin-cipal.

Galanakis refused to com-ment.

“I cannot comment on thematter. I am just an employeehere. You can speak to theSGB who makes the deci-sions,” she said.

THEREwas only one thingmissingat the Darren Maule evening lastFriday — a doctor.

If guests were not suffering from fits— of laughter — they certainly werewheezing from it.

The funny thing about comedians isthat one never knows whether they’retelling thetruthor if it’s justanother joke.

So when Durban’s famous stand-upcomedian Darren Maule, pitched up atRiverbend Art and Wine Gallery on Fri-day,itwasonlynaturalforgueststobom-bard the comedian with a million ques-tions.

Luckily for the invited guests, Maule

is a very approachable, friendly man.Organised by OSA Marketing and

Maule’s manager Claire Clark, theeveningshowcasedMauleathisbest—from an insight into his life and jobsto thebrandshepromotes,prizegivea-ways and lots of stand-up comedy,there was not a negative word to sayabout the event. Maule also brought asurprise element — his “Magic Man”,AndrewElandandapparentlyhismateDave was lurking around.

The comic illusionist,magician andconjurerwowed guestswith his tricks.

Rumour has it that Maule willfeature at a wine tasting weekend atRiverbend in September. You don’twanttomissthat,sowatchthepressfordetails. PHOTOS: CANDYCE KRISHNA

Waterrestrictionsin Ugu>> Dam levels decline due to poor rainfall


THE Ugu District Municipalityhas introduced water restric-tions due to the declining

levels of the dams in the Umzintowater system.

Municipal spokesperson SiphoKhuzwayo said this decline has ne-cessitated the introduction of re-strictions.

“The restrictions are because of

the poor rainfall in the Umzintocatchment areas resulting in theUmzinto Reservoir Dam, EJ SmithDam and Nungwane Dam falling tocritical levels,” said Khuzwayo.

The municipality urges commu-nities from Scottburgh, Park Rynie,Pennington, Umzinto, Ghandina-gar, Kelso, Amahlongwa, Aman-dawe, Ifafa Mission, Malangeni,KwaCele, Dudu and surroundingareas, those who will be affected, toensure preservation of this scarce

resource.“The restrictions will be imple-

mented with immediate effect andstrictly prohibit theuseof hosepipesfrom council mains for washingmotor vehicles,motor cycles, boats,paths andpavedareas. The affectedcommunities are also urged to re-frain from the use of irrigation and/or sprinkler systems and automaticflushing urinals.

“These shall be turned off in allpublic buildings when vacated andprohibited in new buildings.”

“Themunicipalitywill alsobeex-ploring more restriction optionsshould the current restrictions notbring thedesiredoutcome. If the sit-uation worsens, water shedding,among other restrictions, may beimposed.

“Ugu regrets any inconveniencecaused by these measures and re-quests the communities’ under-standing, said Khuzwayo.

The Internet: friend or foe?

STEPH MCLENNAN>>[email protected]

THE worlds of work, play,shopping and research haveall undergone a revolution

over thepast20orsoyears,asare-sult of the evolution of the internet.Technophiles and technophobesalikehavebeenflungintoanew,ex-citing and sometimes scary world.In this new sphere, someone at theother side of the world can stealmoney from your bank account atthe push of a button or access yourmailbox on a whim and send rudemessages to your friends.

When IarriveatworkonaMon-day morning, my inbox generallyhas at least 100 new messagesawaiting my attention, and I as-

sume the same can be said for the20 or so people with whom I sharean open-plan office. If the internetand e-mails did not exist, thoseseated at the back of this officewouldhave toswimthroughstacksand piles of 2000-odd envelopesthatwouldhavearrivedcontainingour mail. In that sense, tree hug-gers, office cleaners and thosewhocan’t swim can be everlastinglygrateful for the arrival of the inter-net and electronic mail.

The Internet is solely responsi-ble for the ever-widening genera-tion gap that existswithin families,with the elderly needing to be in-formed that an Ipad is not a femi-nine hygiene product, and thatWiFi is not a question followed byanexpressionofdisgustoroutrage.

Forstalkers,perverts,andthosewho simply wish to surreptitiouslyget toknowa littlemoreaboutapo-tential suitor or business partner,life hasneverbeeneasier. BetweenFacebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, andGoogle search, you can know eve-rything about somebody, short ofperhaps their ID number and thename of their great grandparents,

at the click of a button.The research capabilities of the

Internet do not end at learningabout people. Gone are the dayswhenschoolchildrenmustgotothelibrary and spend hours pagingthrough dusty copies of Encyclo-paedia Brittanica to completeprojects — when journalists mustleave the sanctity of the office to re-search a feature piece, and whenbusiness executives had to driveacross town or rely on the postalservice to get a contract signed.

Everything can be done behindone’s desk while drinking copiousamounts of coffee in the ever-sed-entary lifestyle of the 21st century.

In the good old days, work at anoffice would come to a standstillwhen the electricitywent off. Now-adays, thanks to the antics of Es-kom, generators are in place tokeep computers and essentiallights powered up at all times.WhentheInternetgoesdown,how-ever, productivity grinds to a haltand the proverbial wheels fall offspectacularly, leaving office work-ers with nothing to do but makemore coffee, scream at the IT de-

partment with increasing voracityas deadlines approach, and holdoneunproductivemeetingafteran-other.

What does the Internet have incommon with nicotine, alcohol,andwhoonga?All these commodi-tiesareaddictive,thoughsomeper-haps less destructively so thanoth-ers.

While a lack of internet will notleave you feeling like ants arecrawling under your skin, as I be-lieve is the case with whoonga, itcertainlymakeshighly-strungpeo-plemoreuppity thanever.Betweensocial media, Candy Crush, Redditandmaterial of an illicit nature, theinternethassomethingtoappeal tothatpartof everysoulwhich is con-ducive to addiction.

BIZARRE beauty treatments arenothingnew.We’veprobablyheardofthem all – from the cultural practiceof stretching one’s earlobes, to hand-rejuvenation surgery to take the per-fect engagement ring selfie.

But, nothing could quite prepareus for thehorror (andridiculousness)that is “Cinderella surgery”.

It’s not sommer a surgery to fix a

medical problem.No. This surgery is purely for cos-

metic purposes.Formaking it easier towear high-

heel shoes to be exact.The procedure involves shorten-

ingor lengtheningof toes, shavingoffparts of the toe to make them morestreamline and even big toeliposuction (a totallymadeuptermby

Women24) – where they suck excessfat from big toes.

It costs close to R100 000 and al-though you’ll be able to wear theshoes of your dreams (because ap-parently ugly feet aren’t the worstthing. I mean, really, who careswhatyour feet look like. They’re in shoesmostofthetimeanyway,right?).Any-way.

Otherthantheridiculouspricetag,orthopedic surgeons warn that cut-ting toes open, sawing the bones andsewing them back together has thepotential for serious complications,like permanent pain and restrictedjoint movement. But hey, as long youhave pretty shoes, right?

THERE is a lot of confusion about themeaning of the term “RSVP”. Manyguests see this on invitations and donot know what they are supposed todo.

The initials RSVP, found on allkinds of invitations aren’t put in fordecorative purposes ,quite the con-trary, it implies a request.

Not responding to a request maybe regarded as bad etiquette.

Theproblemweexperience is thateven you put an RSVP request on aninvitation, guests don’t do anythingabout it.

This leads to the problem thathosts can’t tell howmany guests planto attend the function.

What RSVP meansRSVP comes from the French re-

spondez s’il vous plait meaningplease respond/reply.

If RSVP is written on an invitationit means that the invited guest musttell the host whether they plan to at-tend the function .

It doesnotmean to respondonly ifyouare coming, and it doesnotmeanrespond only if you are not coming(the expression “ regrets only” is re-served for this instance).

It means the host needs a definiteheadcountfortheplannedevent ,and

needs it by the date specified on theinvitation. Some invitations carry thehost’s telephone number, so you cancall with your reply.

Why it is inconsiderate not toRSVP

An incomplete list of respondentscan cause numerous problems for ahost, including difficulty in planningfood quantities, issues relating tominimum guarantees with caterers

anddifficultyinplanningappropriateseating , among other things.

So next time you see RSVP on aninvitation you receive, please callyour host and respond promptly.

K. Reddy

To RSVP or not to RSVP — that is the question

This quote is from 1957.How accurately it describes the

wrongs of today’s South Africa.“When you see that trading is

done, not by consent, but by com-pulsion - when you see that inorder to produce, you need to obtainpermission from men who producenothing - when you see thatmoney is flowing to those who deal,not in goods, but in favours - when

you see that men get richer by graftand by pull than by work, and yourlaws don’t protect you againstthem, but protect them against you- when you see corruption being re-warded and honesty becoming aself-sacrifice - you may know thatyour society is doomed.”

– Ayn Rand

Norbert Gintner

Our society is doomed

THERE is an urban legend that the SouthCoast is still a paradise, shouldn’t we thenbe nurturing it if it really is?

Instead of chopping down trees andshrubs, killing animals by setting traps orby driving too fast, forgetting that thereare little and big creatures out there withhomes and nests with offspring as wellthat need nurturing and care.

I’m aware that not everyone on theSouth Coast is doing this.

Let us care and share. Let us learn togarden and also learn about the environ-ment.

Money can’t be the beginning and theend of all. Large bank accounts and ashrinking quality of life are not the answer.Obeyingtherulesoftheroadandswitchingoff your cellphone when you drive wouldbe a great start.

Let’s care more

ANALYSTS had hoped that PresidentJacob Zuma would offer his resignationduring his State of the Nation speech lastweek, or at least hint about it.

The reason for analysts’ hopes hadperhaps been fuelled by the rumour thatZuma, in an attempt to recompense tax-payers, is seeking to sell his Nkandla com-plex, and the buyer is said to be noneother than the Disney conglomerate.

The Nkandla complex is thought to bean ideal theme park with all the necessaryfeatures for a 21st-century Zulu culturalvillage.

The fire pool that would allow the an-tics of the “pirates of Nkandla” to showtheir skills. There are adequate facilitiesand shelter for a wide range of animals,space enough for donkey and pony rides(consideration to be given to elephants)and state-of-the art security for visitors.

And perhaps best of all is that MickeyMouse, Goofy and Prince Charming, allwrappedupintooneindividual,arealreadyin residence.

Trumpeter Hornbill — haveyou seen any?EVERY morning when I wake up I amgreetedbywonderfulsoundsproducedby birds utilising the green spaces inmy neighbourhood.

Regardless of our destructive wayof life, some bird species are still a com-mon sighting in our urban environ-ment. We can see them utilising ourtrees in our backyard for nesting andas a source of food.

When I see this it makes me realisehow valuable these green spaces arenot only to birds but also other lifeforms that use them.

It is based on this simpleobservation that we are interested toknow more on how some bird speciesare surviving by utilising these frag-mented habitats or forests in urban en-vironment.

The Trumpeter Hornbill (Bycan-istes bucinator) is the species ofinterest. This bird is the largest

obligate frugivore in South Africa andfeeds mainly on fruit. Our interest is toknow how the Trumpeter hornbill isutilising fragmented landscapes interms of nesting, movements andfeeding behaviour.

Have you seen them in your neigh-bourhood?

We would love to know how theTrumpeterhornbill isutilisingthevege-tation in your backyard gardens andthe forest patches within and close tothe city. We are optimistic that withyour help by providing us with informa-tion in relation to the question asked,we will be able to generate vital infor-mation that will be useful for biodiver-sity conservation under the currentscenarios of land-use changes.

PUPILS and residents travelling upand down Commercial Road in OsloBeach have to cross this river of sew-age on the road every day.

For over a year now raw sewagehasbeen flowing freely over this roadinto occupied property despite nu-merous pleas and complaints to theproperty owner and municipal au-thorities. The stench is unbearableand pupils and vehicles have got nochoicebut to stepoverordrivedirect-ly through this.

Extensive overcrowding on thepremises, causing the spillage, is thereason to this environmental healthrisk.

Furtherup theroad,upmarket flat

and homeowners have tosuffer fromthis total lack of control over theseconditions.

Over and above this problem,refuse is strewn on the pavementand street and not only disfigures thearea, but causes further health prob-lems.

As to be expected with such over-crowded conditions, youngsters oc-cupying these premises cause a greatdeal of irritation to the communitywith their partying, singing andshouting way into the early hours ofthe morning.

Is there anybody who can rectifythis problem?

Dear Doctor Nash,I am married, but am depressed.

Stress brings it on. The situation athome and my marriage are not goodand I moved out four months ago. Myhusband is very possessive. He ques-tions people at my work place andfriends about me to keep track of me.When I get home at night he checkswho did I speak to and why, what didI do etc. He does not even like me tophone my family. He checks my mes-sages on the phones, he goes throughmy handbag every night. His lack oftrust puts such a pressure on to our re-lationship that I get depressed and inthe end I decided to move out. Hewants me back because of my salary,I think he loves me but I cannot live un-der the present circumstances. I do notknow what to do. How can we have arelationship if he cannot trust me?What should I do? Advice please.

Mrs. M.L.

Dear Mrs. M.L. You must love himvery much even to consider the mar-riage. Frankly your husband needs tosee a clinical psychologist for quite awhile, and be prepared to change hisattitude dramatically. It is possiblethat his personal history has a lot to dowith his inability to trust. There is a lotof research that points to that. Wheth-er you would be prepared to take himon again is greatly dependent on howstrong your belief in him will be andhow committed he will be to a morebalanced life. In other words he mustgo out, get the help he needs and showprogress before you move back, thenyou will have the beginnings of a newfoundation. Be careful.

I want tobe ‘me’Dear Doctor Nash,

My father died before I was born,and so my grandfather became like afather to me, but from my teen yearsI had to earn my own money. From thetime that I could get a full-time job, Ibecame the breadwinner. Then mygranny died and I had to do everything.Now I want to be me. I want to go out,to eat, do, enjoy myself and wear niceclothes, but my husband and familydon’t allow me. He is very possessiveand always questions me, but I knowthat he has girlfriends on the side. If Iquestion him he becomes violent. Iwant to leave him and have my ownlife. We do not have any children so whyshouldn’t I? What do you think DoctorNash? Help.

Mrs. M.F.

Dear Mrs. Much Frustrated, You cer-tainly had a tough upbringing and youdeserve a good time now. The problemis that you chose the wrong man. I amsure that the leopard does not changehis spots and that your man was a“hunter” before you married him. Idoubt he will change now so just getrid of him. He may make lots of promis-es, but if he is not prepared to live upto them….so it is up to you. Confronthim with your side of the marriage andtell him he must change if he wants tokeep you. His choice. BUT if he does notkeep to his promises then he is out. Doyou have the courage? It is your life andto stay in the relationship you describeis crazy. I wish you well.

Married, but …

“Wewill be subsidising the cost of the vacci-nations for cats and dogs at the price of R125.

This is a five-in-one vaccine,” said Lynne Har-ley, SPCA public relations officer.

The vaccine protects dogs against caninedisptemper, respiratory disease, diarrhoeaandrabies.Catsareprotectedagainstrhinotra-neitus-calici-panleukopenia (upper respirato-ry disease).

Finding the right tenant>> There are some serious shortcomings to consider when issuing an open mandate, as opposed to a sole mandate

WHEN it comes to finding the righttenant, there are some importantconsiderations to take into ac-

count when deciding on the type of man-date to give your rental agent.

Michelle Dickens, managing director ofTenant Profile Network (TPN), explainsthat there are some serious shortcomingsto consider when issuing an open man-date, as opposed to a sole mandate.

Many property owners and landlordschoose to approach a variety of differentagencies with their request to place a suit-

able tenant in their property. This is knownas an open mandate. She says landlordsassume that normally this method will bebeneficial because it creates healthy com-petition between agents, and the landlordwould then be able to take hir or her pickfrom a set of considered options.

However, she says the high demand forrental stock now means that it doesn'ttake long to rent a property — there area plethora of prospective tenants on themarket.The result being that mostagentsonly earn a commission on placements

they secure."Because agents know their competi-

tion will be moving quickly, in many casesthey end up recommending the first dealas opposed to the best deal they comeacross, in order to keep up with the limitedwindow of opportunity and avoid losingthe deal completely. This ultimatelymeans that the upside of finding a tenantquickly through an open mandate is faroutweighed by the risk of placing a poten-tiallybadtenant,whichcouldendupbeingcostly and frustrating for the landlord inthe long run."

On the other hand, when choosing totake a sole-mandate approach with justone agent, the difficulty presented is thatyou won't have the same competition be-tween agents.

Dickens says many landlords assumethey won't be able to negotiate on thecommission offered. This isn't the case ac-tually, and landlords can, in fact, negotiateon the commission upfront, after whichthey give the agent the opportunity tosource the best potential tenant for theproperty.

Especially in the current market wheredemand for property is so high, landlordsthinkthatitshouldbeeasytofindatenant,but one in two South Africans have im-paired credit so it isn't as simple as justplacing a tenant — you need to ensure youare placing the right tenant, she explains.

"Don't be misled by the fact that there

are many tenants eager to submit theirapplications and deposits — this doesn'tnecessarily mean they are the tenant youshould choose. It is better in the long runto show your property to 10 differentpotential placements and take time tochoose the right one, than to place thefirst one who has the correct deposit andend up dealing with the headache of a de-linquent tenant."

Dickens says it is worth the wait for agood tenant, even if your property standsempty for a while during your search.

Landlords should also avoid placingsomeone who is trying to move urgently —this can raise questions (especially if it'sthe middle of the month) such as the pos-sibility that they are absconding from theircurrent rental agreement, and the reasonsbehind it.

Dickens says you must receive a copy ofa full credit report on the tenant beforeplacing them. She advises that this simpleaction can save you months, even years, offinancial, legal and time- consuming bur-dens. — www.property24.com

Home extensions, cheaper than movingWhen a home becomes too

small for a family’s needs,anobviouschoiceis tomove

to a bigger house. But it is oftenmoresensible and indeed cheaper to ex-tend the existing property simply bybuilding on additional rooms.

More andmore people these daysare abandoning the ideaofmoving toa bigger home when they run out ofspace, choosing to build on to theircurrent property instead. Of course,people’sneedsvary–somewant two-storeyextensionsoranambitious loftconversion,whileothersneedonlyanextra living room to give them somemuch-needed breathing space. Butwhatever the requirement, a homeextension is a big project that needscareful consideration.

Space requirementsIt is importanttoanalyseyoursitu-

ationcarefullytodecidejustwhatsortof extra space you need. Perhaps themostobvious requirement isanextrabedroom to cope with an addition tothefamily.Youmayhaveahousewithjust one living room, and feel that itcannot cope with all the different ac-tivities of the family.

There may be a need for a studywhere you can pursue your favouritehobby or where teenagers can dotheir homework. Youmight even feelit a good idea to provide a separateplayroomforthechildren.Thiscanbeconverted intoa teenager’splayroomalter, and then a guest room once thechildren grow up. And extra space inthekitchenor thebathroomisalways

wouldserveyourpurposesmuchbet-ter – for example, if you have a reallysmall kitchen, it might be better toopen it up into the dining room andlounge to create one open-plan livingarea with a more airy and spaciousappeal.

Siting and structureWithsomeideainyourmindabout

the sort of extra room you need, youcan then start thinking about wheretobuildandwhattypeofstructureyouwould like. You will need to considersuch factors as planning restrictions,access from the existing house andsite geography when it comes tochoosing the site for the extension.

One aspectworth remembering isthat itcanbeverydifficult toblendthelines of an extension inwith an exist-ing structure. One clever design trickto get this right includes setting thefrontofasideextensionbackfromthefront of thehousebyametreor so.Bykeeping the windows at the sameheight,youretainafeelingofcontinu-ity,butmaintainasubtleaesthetic fortheadd-on.Thesameapplies for rooflines – it is often preferable to go fora broken roof line, than to try anddovetail a new roof into the existingone. Similarly, instead of erecting aliving room extension parallel to thewall at the rear of the house, why notconsider building it as awing at rightangles to the house for a more dra-matic effect.

materialsisvitallyimportantif theex-tension is to blend perfectly with theexisting house. Matching brickworkisnotoriouslydifficult,whichcouldbearealproblemifyourhomehasafacebrickexterior. If youcan’t findmatch-ing bricks, architects often suggestyou plaster the new extension in amanner thatblends inwith the rest ofthehouse. It is far easier if yourhomehas been plastered entirely, then itdoesn’t matter which bricks you use,as long as the finished rendering isplastered in the same method as therest of the home.

The type of roofing you choose

should also be an identical match tothe existing roof, as should the doorsand windows used in the new exten-sion. Mixing and matching can lookveryawkwardandclumsy–forexam-ple, using aluminium frames in theextension,when the rest of the housefeatures wooden windows wouldlook awful.

‘Time’ magazine saysscientists are wrongabout fat>> We’ve been ingrained to always choose the fat-free or low-fatversion of any food — thinking that it is better for us

HAVE you seen the latest cover ofTime magazine? When we spottedit two words jumped out at us - “Eat

butter”.Time has reported that scientists have

now admitted to being wrong about theirfindings regarding the LCHF, ketogenic,Atkins, and Paleo diets. For decades we’vebeen told that saturated fat (ie. fat thatcomes from animal sources such as redmeat, poultry and full-cream dairy) is badfor one’s health – and has been associatedwith heart disease, diabetes and obesity.But only in recent years has sugar and re-fined carbs become the culprits.

What we were led to believeThink about it, all those low fat yo-

ghurts and “healthy” commercial mueslison the supermarket shelves are surrepti-

tiously loaded with corn syrup or artificialsweetners. But nobody told you that theywere high sugar, did they. Some say thatthis is because large food corporationshave been profiting from these low-fat“diet” foods.

We’ve been ingrained to always choosethe fat-free or low-fat version of any food– thinking that it’s better for us. Is this be-cause we’ve spent so many years believingthat fat was our enemy and that it wouldmake us fat?

According to this article in theExaminer, Time’s cover story stated that,“the 40-year demonisation of saturatedfat as the cause of obesity, diabetes, andheart disease was based on flawed data”.

South Africa’s Professor Tim Noakeshas been advocating a low carb high fat

way of eating after finding out that he wascarbohydrate resistant.

He too, acknowledged that there wereerrors in his initial nutritional findings andhis new book The Real Meal Revolution isselling like hot fishcakes.

We’ve even created a LCHF hub on oursite for those of our readers who areBanting. The demand is big.

Of course not everyone feels the sameabout eliminating carbs as suggested byNoakes.

What does all this mean though? Well,for one – we believe that the world is moreaware of nutritional health than ever be-fore and the fact that Time magazine haschosen to come out with a cover such asthis is very telling.

Risotto with bacon, blue cheese and peasINGREDIENTS

>> 30 ml olive oil>> 1 onion, finely diced>> 200 g bacon, chopped>> 2 Knorr chicken stock pot>> 1 litres boiling water>> 500 ml risotto rice>> 250 ml white wine>> 250 ml frozen peas>> 50 g blue cheese

METHOD

Heat olive oil in a wide, deep potand gently sauté the onion until softbut do not allow any colour to devel-op.

Dissolve the Knorr chicken stockpot in the boiling water in a jug and

keep aside.Add the bacon and fry until

cooked then add the rice and stir tocoat well.

Allow the rice to fry for five min-utes, stirring continuously until theedges of the rice grains are starting tobecome clear.

Add the white wine and allow tosimmer until the wine has been ab-sorbed by the rice. Then add the hotstock half a cupful at a time stirringcontinuously until the liquid is ab-sorbed before adding the next cup -this process will take 30 minutes.

The risotto is ready when the riceis soft and creamy and slightly aldente - each grain should be slightlychewy in the centre.

You can now stir in the frozen peasand blue cheese - allow to simmer ona low heat for about five minutes stir-ring occasionally until the peas arecooked.

Beermayhelpkeepbonesstrongbecause it’s a rich source of dietarysilicon, which contributes to bonemineral density, a new study re-ports.

But the amount of silicon appar-ently varies by the type of beer.

“The factors in brewing that in-fluence silicon levels in beer havenotbeenextensivelystudied,”studyauthor Charles Bamforth, aprofessor in the food science andtechnology department at theUniversity of California, Davis, saidin a news release from the Journalof the Science of Food and Agricul-ture.

“Wehaveexaminedawiderangeof beer styles for their silicon con-tent and have also studied the im-pact of rawmaterials and thebrew-ing process on the quantities of sili-con that enter wort and beer,”Bamforth said.

Wort is liquid extracted from themashing process during the brew-ing of beer.

Theresearchers tested100com-mercial beers and found that theirsilicon content ranged from 6.4 to56.5 milligrams per litre.

“Beerscontain-inghighlevels ofmaltedbarleyand hopsare rich-est in sili-con,”Bam-forth said.“Wheatcontainsless siliconthan barleybecause it isthe husk ofthe barleythat is rich inthis element.While most ofthe silicon re-mains in thehusk duringbrewing, sig-nificantquanti-ties of siliconnonethelessare extractedinto wort, andmuch of thissurvives intobeer.”

Security and safety in your home>> There are a number of home security tips that will encourage burglary prevention

EVEN though a home alarm systemis a great way to keep your homesafe, you can never be too careful

when it comes to home security. There area number of home security tips that willencourage burglary prevention in theevent that your house is targeted bycriminals.

Home security and burglaryprevention tips

Ensure that all valuables and impor-tant documents are photocopied,authenticated by a commissioner ofoath and securely locked away. If you donot have a fire proof home safe, lodgethese copies with your bank for safekeep-ing.

Ensure that perimeter doors are fittedwith adequate locks. The front doorshould have a safety chain or safety latchand, if the door has no vision panel, a doorviewer. If keys to perimeter doors are mis-laid, those locks should be replaced.

Fit suitable “spacers”, locks or bolts toall sliding doors to prevent them from be-ing lifted off their tracks (the most com-mon method used by burglars on slidingdoors and windows).

Ensure all windows are fitted with ad-equate locks or burglar bars that cover allglass.

Ensure that all duplicate keys arelocked away if not in use. Do not leave indoors or make unnecessary copies.

Install a safe for weapons and valua-bles. Duplicate house keys could be keptin this safe. Wall safes are usually not fireproof and therefore not suitable for face-value documents and money.

Try not to have high walls and tallhedges that obscure your view of theproperty. If walls and ledges are low, orhave openings, neighbours and passers-by will more easily be able to spot suspi-cious or unusual activity.

Reduce all heavy foliage near thegarage entrance and front door to re-duce the possibility of those spots beingused as a hiding place.

When at homeAlways lock perimeter doors and close

windows that are far away from wherethe family activity is centred.

At night always lock perimeter doorsand securely fasten windows. When retir-ing to bed, lock inter-leading doors ofthose rooms that are not occupied.

Do not leave curtains open at nightas this allows observation into thehouse.

Do not go outside alone to investigate

at night. Rather switch off all lights andopen curtains to allow you to see whatis occurring outside, once eyes have be-come accustomed to the dark.

Do not open any perimeter door with-out satisfactory identification from thevisitor. If in any doubt, do not open thedoor and consider summoning the policeor ADT.

Never admit to a stranger that you arealone.

If a repair-person is expected, do notallow entry unless identity has beenchecked through a vision panel or doorviewer and with the company concerned.

Do not allow strangers into your hometo make telephone calls. Rather offer tomake the telephone calls for them whilethey wait outside.

If you note suspicious vehicles, indi-viduals or groups in your neighbourhood,contact the police.

When away from homeDo not leave only the outside lights on

as this is usually an indication to would-be intruders that the house is not occu-pied.

Leave lights on and the radio playingas this gives the impression that thehouse is occupied.

If confronted by an intruderTry to escape if possible. If you cannot

escape, try to lock yourself in a secureroom and lock the door. Remain calm.

Co-operate with the intruder.Be observant and take particular no-

tice of any voice, dress or behaviouraltraits.

Only shout for help or scream to avoidserious assault. If the intruder tries toleave, do not hinder or apprehend him.

Do not follow the intruder outside.Close and lock the doors immediately andcall for help by activating the home alarmsystem.

Basic home security preventativemeasures

Ensure that anyone leaving your prop-erty can get into their car, start it, lock thedoors and be fully prepared to drive offbefore the gates are opened.

Ifpossible,ensurethatanyoneleavingyour premises can do so without havingto reverse into the road. Reversing forcesone to concentrate on the driving and notwhat lies outside the gate. It also greatlyreduces visibility.

If your visitors have to park in thestreet, escort them to their car when leav-ing and check that the road is clear for

them. If you have dogs, take them withyou, especially after dark.

Ensure that your gate and drivewayare well lit after dark. Replace fused lightbulbs immediately.

Ensure that the number of your houseis visible at all times.

Install electric gates.If you have electric gates and an inter-

com system, ensure that visitors canreach the intercom without having to getout of their cars. Do not leave them wait-ing outside for longer than is absolutelynecessary.

If you spot anything suspicious in yourimmediate vicinity, do not leave youproperty or hesitate to drive away fromit.

Be particularly alert if you live in a cul-de-sac, given their single point of entryand exit.

When driving, avoid wearing flashyjewellery that can be easily seen from adistance by a casual passer-by.

Never leave any important docu-ments in your car that may provide yourpersonal details.

The only solution for vehicle-relatedcrime is to have a tracking system in-stalled in your vehicle.

The RepairerWho Cares

IF you ask any scientist why they dowhat theydo, youwill obviously get varying answers. Anundergraduate might tell you something verydifferent to a post doctorate student - who atthis stagewould have asked him or herself thesame questionwith increasing frequency overthe years.

I couldrunoutofop-edspaceexplaining thereasons why science is important in our lives,but for thepurposeof thiscolumnIwillonly tellyou that it is to vanquish ignorance and exer-cise a healthy dose of skepticism. Toomany ofus are victims of pseudoscience, myths, mis-conceptions and incorrect use of sciencethanks to marketing ploys.

Ignorancecanbeeasilyovercome,but ifyouthrowadashofegointothemix,youhaveamis-guided sense of self-preservation when itcomes to “touchy” issues such as creationism,vaccination, evolution, alternative medicineand nutritional information.

Thankfully,wecansaveourselvesbighead-aches if we apply the simplest tenet of science,which boils down to “assume nothing andquestion everything.”

Science journalism exists not only as a fact-checking tool, but as a standard by which wepractice healthy skepticism - not cynicism - tobetter ourselves and others intellectually.

It is unfortunate therefore that science sto-riesdonotholda lotofweight in termsofedito-rialspaceinmanynationalandindeedlocalpa-

pers in South Africa. Science stories have tocompetewithsportsandpolitics,withthelatterbeing in great supply.

As a science advocate, it is my duty to try toconvince you to like (or at least care about) sci-ence, but it is not a simple task, and after all,a sports’ journalist doesn’t need to convincesports’ fans why they should like sports.

Writing science articles is not easy, and giv-en the demands made on small news teams,journalistsusuallyfindthemselveswithridicu-lous schedules and little or no social life. Thismakes it even more difficult to find personaltime to write about science, which many edi-tors are loathe to accept as the write-up maynothaveasmuchpullingpowerasanaccidentor political scandal.

But it’s not only about the pulling powerwhenitcomestonon-scientificarticles;sciencecan be intimidating to the uninitiated. I wouldlove to tell you that science is all about the dis-covery of some wonder material or newly dis-covered giant killer chicken or the advent of aspace rock on a collision course with KZN, butthis is very rarely the case.

Of course, stories like this do exist, and youcan and should read about them on the net.Someofmy favourite reputable sites include “IF*ckingLoveScience”andPhilPlait's “BadAs-tronomy”. Some of the best science writing inthe world can also be found at National Geo-graphic’s “Phenomena”.

In a country and a province where scienceeducation is still far below the global bench-mark, it is time for us to consciously abandonour fear of science.We need to fall in lovewiththe wonder of science, but also be careful toavoid “bumper-sticker” science, as one ofSouth Africa’s foremost science journalists(and author of Searching African Skies) SarahWild once put it.

I encourage you to take the plunge into thedeep, beautiful and mysterious world of sci-ence. You won’t regret it.

WHEN searching for planets, al-ways look towards the north, aroundthe same path which the Sun travels(the ecliptic). This is due to the factthat the planets liemore or less at thesame plane as the orbit of the Earth(identicalwith theecliptic).To thena-ked eye they look like stars.

TWO South Coast people are stillmissing and police are urging any-body who has information to comeforward.

Amanda Vilikazi (16) of Betaniaarea near Port Shepstone was lastseen on 15 May at 1pm by a familymember.

Sheleft theresidencewithoutnoti-fyinganyoneofwhere shewasgoing.It is unknownwhat she was wearingat the time of her disappearance.

Mzwandile Goodenough Shozi(26) whose nickname is Nzo, is fromMadlala area in Umzumbe. He waslastseenon6JuneatataverninAikenStreet. He was wearing black Allstartakkies, blue long pants and a brownsweater.Anyonewhomayhaveinfor-mation on these missing personsmust contact Warrant Officer RamsRamphul on 079 500 1251 at the PortShepstone SAPS.

Every week, media houses receivee-mails from police communicationdepartments relating to missing per-sons.

Police spokesperson Lieutenant-Colonel Zandra Wiid said parentsshould not feel guilty about “intrudingon the privacy of their children”whenthey want to see the contents of thechildren’s cellphones.

“Parentsshoulddothisonaregularbasis so that they know who their de-pendants are communicating with.

They should also monitor what theyare downloading,” said Wiid.

She added that educating childrenof the possible dangers of revealingtheir personal details on social net-worksandcommunicatingwithstran-gers, is compulsory.

“Often children innocently fall preyto criminals via social networks andarebeingluredawayfromtheirhomesbecause of false promises,” she said.

“Those children then gomissing orget involvedwithdrugsorcriminalac-tivities.”

She saidparents have tomake surethat their children are going where

they say they are going and checkwhether there is adult supervision atthe place they are visiting.

“In our investigations we havefound that some parents have a no-care attitude and don’t even knowwhere their children are.

“Parentshouldalsokeepawatchfuleye onhowpocketmoney is spent andon what.”

She said that in the caseofmentallychallengedpeoplewhogomissing, thesame applies.

“They should never be left aloneandshouldalwayshaveproper super-vision.”

ngifunda olunye udaba kwelinyelamaphephandaba esiZulu, olubikengomfundisi (Fata) wasemaRomenioseneminyaka emibili eshadile.Ngikhulele enkonzweni yamaRoma,ugogo ekuqikelela ukuthi asiphuthienkonzweni. Imithandazo, amaculonemithethoyakhonangiyazinjengobangizazi mina.Ngokwazi kwami, uFata wasemaRomeni akavunyelwe ukushadanoma abe nomuntu ahlekisana naye.Ngikhule kunjalo futhi angikaze ngisi-buze isizathu salokho.Le ndaba ibingihlupha emoyeni,kwaze kwabona nomngani wami uM-giks. Ngibe sengimxolela ngalolu da-ba, wangiphendula ngendlela ebeng-ingayilindele. Uthe: “Mgani wami, uy-abo lendaba yabafundisibasemaRomeni nokungaganwakwabo, isiqala ukuba yisicefe. Okoku-qalanje,abaphathikumelebaziukuthiisikhathi samanjeasisefaninesakuda-la. Mhlawumbe oFata bakudala ba-bekwaziukuzithiba,kantikwabaman-je, sengathi akuselula ukuzithibakubona.”

every weekDamaged Bhobhoyi houses to berepaired by the municipalityGINISILE NDOVELA>>[email protected]

BHOBHOYI residents, whose houses were af-fected during the laying of water pipes at UguDistrict Municipality Ntilivo reservoirs, willhave their houses repaired by Ugu DistrictMunicipality.

Mayor Ntombifikile Gumede announcedthis at the sod turning for the waterupgrade construction project at Bhobhoyi onFriday.

“We call upon all the affected families nearthe dams to be patient. Your cracked houseswillberepaired.Whatwearepromisingiswhatthe council agreed upon or sanctioned that

when development happens in the area, itmust not leave the communities unhappy orbadly affected.”

Her response followsafter families near thereservoirs complained to the municipalityaboutcertainconstructionthatresultedintheirhome walls cracking.

The families feared that the recently an-nounced construction works at Ugu DistrictMunicipalityreservoirswillcausefurtherdam-age to their homes.

Some families asked the municipality tocompensate themfor thedamageandcost theyhave incurred in restoring their houses.

Residents welcomed the mayor’s commit-ment to repair the houses.


AT a media briefing on Tuesday, the HibiscusCoast Municipality put it on record that objec-tions to tender outcomes is not a weakness onthe part of municipal supply chain manage-ment processes (SCM), but a legislative right tounsuccessful bidders.

Municipal manager Max Mbili said thatlodging objections on the tender outcomes isthe right provided to unsuccessful bidders bySection 49 and 50 of the SCM policy.

“These sections provide a right to unsuc-cessful bidders to lodge objections on the out-comesof tenderprocesseswithin14daysaftera decision has been taken with the municipalmanager (MM). The MM is regarded as a per-sonwhois legible todealwiththeobjections in-dependentlydue to the fact thatheor she isnotthe member of any bid committee in the SCMprocess,” said Mbili.

Hepointedout that if the objection is not re-solvedwithin 60 days itmay be referred to theprovincial treasury and if the provincial treas-ury has not resolved the objection it may be

referred to national treasury.“The municipality is however, concerned

that some unsuccessful bidders have resortedto contacting the media before all the neces-saryprocessesareexhaustedthereby jeopard-isingtheobjectionsprocess.Theotherconcernis that some unsuccessful bidders object withno tangible reasons and this in itself delaysservice delivery unnecessarily as properprocesses would be activated to deal with it,”said Mbili.

He appealed to bidders to familiarise them-selveswiththesesections(49and50)andotherimportant sections of theSCMpolicy, availablein the municipal website, under “documents”then “policies”.

Forabidder to get a tender itmustmeet keytender requirements such as tax clearance,pricing,Broad-basedblackempowerment,ex-perience and functionality.

“Our economic development departmentcalls uponemergingbidders tovisit it for infor-mation.

“Some bidders collude and once we catchthem they will be blacklisted, so we warnthem,” said Mbili.

HYUNDAI’s new Grandi10hasarrived inSouthAfrica, and this small

well-endowed hatchback haseverything in its arsenal. It isspacious inside, yet small inoverall diameters, and filledwithstandardfeaturesthatwillmake it a compelling choice inthe entry-level car market.

This hatchback was chosento fit in between the present,smaller i10 –which is retainedin the localmodel line-up–andthe i20. “It fills that spot well –not only in termsof size, but al-so regarding prices and stand-ard features,” said StanleyAnderson, marketing directorof Hyundai Automotive SouthAfrica.

The Grand i10 has beenlaunched in South Africa inthree derivatives: the 1.25Mo-tion manual, the 1.25 Fluidmanual (with a slightly higherspecificationlevel)andthe1.25Fluid with a four-speed auto-matic gearbox.

The new proportions deliv-ergreaterbodyandwheel con-trol, as well as ride comfortcomparable to cars from high-er segments.

The larger body shell of theGrand i10 yields one of theroomiest occupant cabins onthe market, as well as an im-pressive 256 litres of trunk ca-pacity.

At 3 765mm, the Grand i10is180mmlongerthanitssmall-er sibling, and one of the long-est cars in the segment. Like-wise, the Grand i10 is also thewidest in its segment at 1660mm. A lower roofline, nowstandingat1520mm,yieldsanathletic on-the–road stance.

Amongthemanyfeaturesoftheall-newGrand i10are luxu-ry itemssuchasBluetoothcon-nectivity to the sound system,keyless entry and electricallyheatedandfoldingsidemirrors(for the two Fluid derivatives),USB and AUX ports for thesound system, aswell as an air

conditionerandcentrallockingfor all derivatives.

Allthreederivativesarealsoequippedwith front fog lamps,a full-sizesparewheel,14-inchalloy wheels, a height-adjusta-ble driver’s seat, a trip compu-ter and remote controls for thesound system on the steeringwheel.

Fuel consumption canbeaslow as a measured 5,9 li-tres/100km, with emissions of130g/m in the 1.25 Motionmanualand1.25Fluidmanualderivatives, and 6,9 li-tres/100km with emissions of147g/km for the 1.25 Fluidwith the four-speed automaticgearbox. Dual airbags and anAdvances Braking System(ABS) take care of safety in theGrand i10.

At a price range from R139900 to R159 900, with Hy-undai’s 5 year/150 000kmwarranty and roadside assist-ance thrown in, the Grand i10offers exceptional value.

THISyear’sTopGearannual festival atMo-sesMabhidaStadiuminDurbanendedona very top gear for car enthusiasts as this

was the much anticipated end to three years ofTop Gear in the city.For the first time the surrounding car expowhich usually stuns crowds at the People’s Parkdid not have a lot to offer; there were the usuallapracesandafewstunts,butthegiltzandglam-our of previous years was notably absent.The final show, however, made up for any fea-tures that theexpomissed inwhatwasarguably

the best show of the trilogy.From the onset and throughout, the team ofRichard Hammond, James May and JeremyClarksonbroughta real SouthAfrican flavour tothe show.From jokes about the red beret-wearing politi-cians, to the cost of Zuma’s house, the cast wonthe full capacity crowd overwith their usual witand humour.

Narrow winfor Warriors>> ‘It was a very tough game’

FEVER REPORTER

SOUTH Coast Warriors narrowly pulledthrough to beat the Jaguars 20-19 in aclosely contested encounter at Douglas

Mitchell Sports Grounds on Saturday.The Jaguars looked strong and well pre-

pared for the game, which made theWarriorswork extra hard to ensure that it ends in theirfavour.

"It was a very tough game and the Jaguarswerewell prepared. Itwas the best I have seentheminyears,"saidWarriors first-teamcoach,Christo Henderson.

AtsomepointinthegametheWarriorswere12-0downwith the Jaguars applyingpressuretrying to close the home side down.

"Our scrums and lineouts were once againawesome,but the creditmust alsogo toourde-fending efforts and guts that every player

showed during the game," said Henderson.The Jaguars scored twice with one conver-

sion beforeWarriors had the opportunity to gofor the poles. After making some crucial runs,the Warriors were able to close the gap andbring the score to 12-8.

"We were again the first to score after thebreak and with a successful conversion it putus for the first time in the game into the lead15-12."

An error from the in-form fullback DylanKroon which was tackle under big pressurefrom a Jaguars kick at the back and turnoverwas conceded and a try was scored under thepost, with a successful conversion and theJaguars were back in the lead at 19-15.

The Warriors applied the pressure back toJaguars with some great set plays which leadto a penalty whichmade theWarriors take thelead again with the game ending at 20-19.

THE All Blacks turned it on lastweek against England in the thirdrugby test, stamping their authori-ty in the opening few minutes ofthe game, and eventually cruisingto a 36-13 win.

Australia picked up after a dis-appointing second test and de-molished France 39-13 in their thirdtest.

After a great game the previousweek, the Springboks were ex-tremely lucky to come away witha win over Wales 31-30, thanks totwo penalty tries. They trailed theentire game and only won in the

dying moments thanks to a secondpenalty try being awarded – hadthe player scored the try in the cor-ner, there was every possibilitythat Morne Steyn may not haveconverted it, which would have re-sulted in a one point win for Wales.Argentina narrowly lost 19-21 toScotland.

This weekend we see South Af-rica take on Scotland, who havebeen globe-trotting over the pastthree weeks, having beaten USA,Canada and then Argentina. TheSpringboks have a much weak-ened side as they lost several play-ers back to their European clubs aswell as injuries to at least three for-wards.

However, the Bok squad of 33has been working together for thepast three weeks, so there will notbe that much disruption. TheSpringboks will come out with a lotmore intensity and the Scots willbe suffering from jet-lag, so I pre-dict an easy 14 point win for thehome side in Port Elizabeth at 5pmon Saturday.

The World Cup soccer has obvi-ously taken centre stage and willcontinue to do so for the next few

weeks. Defending champions,Spain, are already out and on theirway home, along with England.Brazil top Group A with Mexico insecond. Netherlands came out ontop of Group B, ahead of Chile. Co-lombiahavewonGroupC,withIvo-ry Coast probably coming in sec-ond. Costa Rica have won Group D,with either Italy or Uruguay goingthrough. France head Group E, withSwitzerland possibly edging outEcuador for second. Argentina aretop of Group F, where Nigeria maywell end up in second. Group G ishotly contested, with Germanyand USA both on 4 points, whilstGhana and Portugal each have 1point.

If Germany and USA draw, theyare both through. However, if Ger-many or USA win, then the gamebetween Portugal and Ghanacould prove vital, and goal differ-ence will come in to play. If I hada crystal ball, I would imagine thatGermany and USA will go throughto the next round. Belgium havewon Group H, with Algeria maybegoing through at the expense ofRussia.

Happy punting.
