MegaMamba

AgriBulletin vandag binne

‘n Reusagtige swart mamba van heelwat meer as twee meter is Woensdag in Tzaneen betrap en vankant gemaak, voordat dit mense kon bedreig. Die slang is in die kantoorkompleks in Peace-straat waar onder andere dr Jean-Marie Joynt, Cook for Life, die SA Bloeddiens en ander sake geves-tig is, deur mnre Chris Gouws en Sam Shiviri van Northern Secu-rity om die lewe gebring. Inwo-ners word gewaarsku dat slange na die versengende hitte na die

dorp kon “gevlug” het.

The fi re function of the Mopani District Municipality’s Fire and Rescue Services is in such a poor state that it is being referred to as a ticking time bomb. Vehicles and equipment are in such a bad condition and so old that they can no longer be called serviceable. There is also a critical shortage of fi re fi ghting and rescue staff and it is said that Mopani will not be able to survive a major crisis.To add insult to injury, the MDM is also in dire straits as far as money is concerned and staff have not been paid yet for January (they were supposed to have their salaries in their bank accounts on Friday 23 January). At the centre of the crisis is the MDM’s controversial municipal manager, Mr Tim Maake. His immediate suspension is now demanded by workers of the MDM.

Turn to page 11 for a full and all together alarming report about the crisis of the MDM.

Karl Liebenberg Voeg ook by die gras wat so lank is op die sypaadjies dat jy nie

aankomende verkeer kan sien nie. Jammer om te se maar dit is buite beheer. Ek kry skaam vir ons pragtige dorp.

Leonie Jansen van Rensburg Goeie opsomming van totale chaos!!Julene van Dyk Mnr OJ Muswana was ‘n baie beter burgemeester! Al die jare

vandat ek in Tzaneen bly, was daar nooit stories van Tzaneen wat agteruitgaan nie. Ek

wil dit nou nie hardop sê nie, maar dis vandat ‘n vrou oorgeneem het. Of die kwali� kasies is onvoldoende, óf die kredietkaart se limiet is te hoog... Sy is nie verniet die “best dressed” burgemeester nie.

Nadine Henning Vermeulen SUG...dis ma al wat mens kan doen. Ons landsgenote

sal nooit insig kry of rigting nie, wat nog van die stadsraad en ander motoriste. En ja almal begin soos manijakke ry, veral as “suzie” haar hazards aansit om om elke slaggat te ry, al is

daar aankomende verkeer, hulle moet ma net koes. die sypaadjies sal ook nie vir my veilig wees as ek met my bene in die straat sit nie, ek moet elke oggend seker maak ek ry nie ‘n paar af nie.Een van die dae is tzaneen net soos duiwelskloof in sy $@#%-in.

Vlieg is bly. Baie bly!Vlieg is baie bly dat hy nie

meer maaiers in die huis het nie. Hy het ongelukkig nog ‘n paar papies, maar daar is darem lig aan die einde van die tonnel. Dit beteken dat Vlieg tans huidiglik is met die primêre skool. Terloops, huidiglik is deesdae ‘n erkende woord in onse Taal, hoewel Vlieg nog rillings kry elke keer as hy die woord hoor.

Gelukkig gaan hy dit nou minder hoor. Vlieg se maaiers het ook net betyds papies geword voordat die skoolmeester dalk visvangklasse in die sillabus (leerplan) insluit. Vlieg sou darem wou gehad het dat sy (voormalige) maaiers moes leer om die sinker en aas ‘n bietjie dieper in Sodwana se see te gooi, as net tot in die vlak golfi es waar ander mense se maaiers dalk in ‘n hoek kan trap. Seker nie ‘n enkele byt gehad nie!

Vlieg dink verder in die besonder vandeesmaand aan al die pappies van verlede jaar se matruuks, in hierdie maand waar die meeste van hulle die nes behoort te verlaat. Mammie sal seker die een of ander tyd ophou tjank. Dit lê seker nog vir Vlieg ook voor!En Vlieg is bang. Baie bang!

Met die hulp van ene Nic Spaull van die Maties, Vlieg is dankbaar, kom hy af op die toespraak van die agbare LUR vir Basiese Onderwys van die KwaaiZulus-van-die-voormalige-

Natal, me. Nelisiwe Peggy Nkonyeni, wat sy gelewer het met die beskaammaking van Ouma Lucy se 2014-matruukuitslae van haar provinsie.

Vlieglesers moet asseblief nou aandag gee! Hou in gedagte dat sy die hoof is van die onderwysdepartement van die provinsie met die meeste voormalige leerlinge, nou leerders, in die land. ‘n Hele 2 901 697. In 6 151 skole, ook die meeste per provinsie in die land. Let verder daarop dat sy die grootste provinsiale begroting in die hele land bestuur, naamlik R39,4 miljard.

Sê sy: “As I conclude, I revisit the thoughts that guide my innermost conscience in the execution of my responsibilities. Visions of an ideal education system dominate my thinking. In the realm of my thought world, I wish… that our system could have graphologists who would analyse the uniqueness of each child’s handwriting and channel them accordingly… That philosophy could be a subject off ered at a basic education level so that the system could produce critical thinkers; that chess lessons could be off ered to all mathematics learners in order to improve their mathematical schools; and that our system could train and produce phrenologists who would study the shape of a child’s head at Grade R so that we channel the children accordingly”

Genuine, Vlieglesers sal weet dat hy ‘n ding het oor die waarheid, en dis sowaar wat sy gesê het!

Oor skaakspeel sal Vlieg volstaan dat

dit vir pissies is wat nie spiere het nie, en oor fi losofi e dat dit by heelwat ouer andersdenkende andersdenkendes, soos Vlieg tuishoort. Maar wat de donner is graphologists en phrenologists?

Vlieg moes sy vry vertaling gebruik en sy betroubare Verklarende Handwoordeboek van die Afrikaanse Taal nader sleep:

gra-fo-lo-gie’ s.nw. Studie van handskrif; kuns om uit iemand se handskrif sy karakter, geaardheid en aanleg te lees;

fre-no-lo-gie’ s.nw. Teorie dat ‘n mens se geestes- of karaktereienskappe in die vorm van sy skedel geopenbaar word;

Hierdie pseudo-wetenskappe van die agbare minister, word nie net deur Vlieg nie, maar deur regte slim mense, geag om in dieselfde klas te val as astrologie (die sterre voorspel), mediese kwakke soos bossiedokters en tradisionele genesers, towenary en ander okkulte taboes.

Dit is dieselfde agbare minister wat in haar vorige termyn as die KwaaiZulus se minister van Ongesondheid, anti-retrovirale middels verban het en eerder die gebruik van uBhejane, ‘n bossiekonkoksie, gepromoveer het as die behandeling van HIV/Vigs — en daardeur duisende mense se lewens gekos en die mediese wetenskap beskaam het.

As die maaiers nou al in gr R aan hul handskrif (in gr R, bid Vlieg aan) en die vorm van hul koppe in sekere rigtings gestuur gaan word, word Vlieg net al hoe blyer oor sy papies!

Red ‘n nasie!

• Talle straatligte in Tzaneen is dood. Die smouse doen wat hulle wil en raak daagliks meer. Die slaggate in die strate raak daagliks erger en meer. Sypaadjies raak gevaarlik vir voergangers, want dit word nie herstel nie. Oop ruimtes word nie versorg nie en parke se toerusting is opgeroes en gevaarlik vir kinders. Bome wat afgekap word of weens ouderdom omval, word nie vervang nie. Al wat ‘n muur en ‘n paal is word onwettig beplak met allerhande advertensies. Taxis stop waar hulle wil, om passasiers open af te laai. Motoriste steur hulle nie meer aan geel ligte nie en selfs rooi verkeersligte word geïgnoreer... ensovoorts. Kan ons verwag dat orde en wetsgehoorsaamheid weer eendag sal heers? Wat dink jy?

• Numerous street lights in Tzaneen are out. Peddlers do as they please and are increasing by the day. Potholes in the streets are worsening and increasing daily. Open public spaces maintenance is not done and the play equipment in parks are rusted and poses a danger to children. Trees that are felled or that died due to old age are not replaced. Walls and lampposts are littered with advertisements. Taxis stop where and when they please to pick up or drop o� passengers. Motorists disregard amber and even red lights... et cetera. Can we expect order and law abidance to reign again? What do you think?

Mnr Attie Bester, bekende oud-burge-meester van Tzaneen en wyd bekend in veral landboukringe, tegniese onderwys en opleiding, sport (hy was op sy dag ‘n rugbyskeidsregter)

en ook as kultuur- en kerkman, sterk tuis aan, nadat hy ‘n operasie in die MediClinic Tzaneen ondergaan het. Hy is Dinsdag weer in die hospitaal opgeneem, maar na behandeling gou weer ontslaan.

Owners of diesel vehicles will be delighted to hear that ultra low sul-phur diesel (ULSD) is now available at Sasol fi lling stations in Tza-neen. ULSD is, in a nutshell, cleaner diesel that has been refi ned so that its sulphur content is a maximum of fi ft een (15) parts per million (ppm) or less.

The ULSD that is now available in Tzaneen has a rating of only 10 ppm. This is at least 97% cleaner than the standard highway-use die-sel fuel, which contains an average of 500 ppm of sulphur. Sulphur, a natural part of the crude oil from which diesel fuel is derived, is one of the key causes of particulates or soot in diesel. Soot is the main culprit of diesel engines’ noxious black exhaust fumes, and is among the prime contributors to air pollution.

ULSD is thus aimed at lowering diesel engines’ harmful exhaust emissions and improving air quality. It has been the standard in Eu-rope for several years.

ULSD enables the new generation of diesel vehicles to meet the same strict emission standards as gasoline-powered vehicles.

Genl-maj Maggy Mathebula, die bevelvoerder van die SA Polisiediens se Tzaneen Cluster (groter Polisiedistrik wat verskeie polsiekantore insluit), is steeds in die hoësorgeenheid van die

MediClinic Tzaneen. Sy is buite gevaar, maar medici sê sy het baie en goeie rus nodig. Mathebula word behandel vir ‘n bakteriese infeksie. Brig Christine Bensch, die bevelvoerder van die Tzaneen Polisiekantoor, neem in Mathebula se plek waar. Die verwagting is dat Mathebula later vanjaar die tuig gaan

neerlê.

The SAPS say they are now at the top of their game aft er a number of new vehicles have been allocated to all police stations in the Tzaneen Cluster.

SAPS Tzaneen Cluster spokesperson Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe promises that with the new vehicles, the police’s response time will improve. “We received a fl eet of vehicles; and we will make sure the vehicles are not abused and used for personal purposes,” he told Bulletin.

Ngoepe urges members of the community to report any incidence of abuse of Police vehicles that they notice.

The future of the Tzaneen Dam will be in the spotlight today, when councillors of the GTM and certain role players will discuss a resource management plan to control the utilization of the water resource and the surrounding environment.

The aim is to fi nd ways which will promote community participation and environmental sustainability of the dam, and to unlock socio-economic potential of the water resource for recreational use.

Low sulphur diesel now in Tzaneen

Tzaneen Dam under scrutiny

Die Langs Die Oever Boeredag, wat vanjaar bemark sou word as die “grootste landbou-fees in die Noorde”, is van die baan.Die fees sou die vyfde agtereenvolgende jaar op 17 en 18 April op die plaas Montrose van mnr Kallie Erasmus in die Letsitele-distrik gehou word.

Die voorsitt er van die reëlingskomitee, mnr Dawie Grobbelaar, sê die “fees” is af-gestel omdat geen geskikte datum daarvoor gekry kon word nie.

“Na verlede jaar se nat toestande het ons reeds besluit om vanjaar se byeenkoms met ‘n maand aan te skuif, maar weens bot-

sende belange in die programme van die topbestuur is besluit om die fees af te stel. Dit sou ook inmeng met oestye van sitrus en avokado’s, wat dan reeds aan die gang sal wees.”

Die stigterslede van Langs Die Oever het ‘n paar jaar gelede voorsien dat die boeredag sou groei tot ‘n “Nampo van die Noorde”. Daar is egter sprake van verstandhoudings onder belanghebbendes wat intussen erg vertroebel het.

Grobbelaar sê egter die fees gaan volgende jaar volstoom voort.

Daar is nog sowat tien dae gelede kennis-

gewings uitgestuur om die “fees” vir van-jaar te adverteer.

Daar is sprake dat van die belanghebben-des meen die “fees” moet met die Letaba Skou saamsmelt, om een “ordentlike” landbou-skou te hou. Die Bulletin het al twee jaar gelede gevra of dit die moeite werd is, veral met ‘n stram ekonomie, om twee “landbouskoue” in/vir Tzaneen aan te bied.

Een van die klagtes van potensiële uitstal-lers in die landboumark gaan juis oor kostes en sakelui het al opgemerk dat hulle dit nie kan bekostig om hul werktuie so ver uit die dorp na die Letsitele-plaas te neem nie.

Boere se ‘feesdag’ op rivieroewer sneuwel

Die net rondom diewe wat by ‘n vliegtuig op die Tzaneen Vlieg-veld ingebreek en vluginstru-mente uitgebreek en gesteel het, span stywer. Die polisie het po-sitiewe identifi kasie van vinger-afdrukke en wag nou vir die uit-slae van forensiese ondersoeke.

Verskeie ooggetuies het al vorendag gekom, en elkeen wat by die vliegveld was, is geïdentifi -seer. Die betrokkenheid en rol van medepligtiges word ook onder-soek, en ‘n man van Phalaborwa is tans ook onder die vergrootglas.

Die vliegtuig het reg langs die

werkwinkel gestaan, waar vlieg-tuie herstel en ander gebou word. Daar is ‘n uiters beperkte vraag na vliegtuiginstrumente en min mense op die vliegveld beskik oor die kennis en gereedskap om in-strumente te verwyder.

Die Burgerlike Lugvaartower-

heid word ook by die ondersoek betrek. Teen die agtergrond van die hoë aantal noodlott ige vliegongelukke die afgelope tyd, word sabotasie soos die in ‘n baie ernstige lig beskou. Diefstal, saakbeskadiging en bedrog word ondersoek.

The Crime SceneCrime Reporter: Rethabile Maake - [email protected]

Lenyenye: 28 arrestedMaake Police have arrested 28 people for var-ious criminal acts over the past week: twelve people got arrested for contravening the Liquor Act, three for assault GBH, three for rape, two for assault, two for calling some-one a witch, two for possession of dagga and the rest got arrested for sexual assault, mur-der, shoplift ing and possession of a danger-ous weapon.

Ritavi: 41arrestedThe police in Ritavi arrested 41 people for criminal activities over the weekend: elev-en people got arrested for assault GBH, eleven for house breaking, four for rob-bery, two for murder, two for assault, two for malicious damage to property, two for possession of suspected stolen property and the rest got arrested for calling some-one a witch, theft, contravening the Liquor Act and attempted murder.

Less crime continues The police in Modjadjiskloof arrested eight-een people for various criminal activities for the past weekend: nine people got arrested for contravening the Liquor act, fi ve for con-travening the road traffi c act, four for urinat-ing in public, two for illegal immigration and the rest got arrested for house robbery and house breaking and theft .

Man arrested for raping elderly women

Ngoako Patrick Mashatole from Bolobedu Ga-Mmamatlepa was arrested for raping fi ve elderly women on separate days between 2009 and 2013. These incidents occurred at Bochabelo, Ga-Abel and Ga-Ntata respec-tively, where he was targeting elderly women at the ploughing fi elds. Police spokesperson

Lt Col Moatshe Ngoepe said, ”the raped vic-tims’ ages are 53, 69, 69, 74 and 75 and his method of raping them was found to be the same except in one incident, where he broke into one of the victims’ home during the night and raped her — the rest were at the plough-ing fi elds during the day”. Members of the SAPS’s FCS Unit arrested Mashatole, to the huge relief of the elderly women in the area. The suspect appeared in the Bolobedu Mag-istrates Court on Monday on fi ve charges of rape and the case was remanded to 27 Febru-ary. He was not allowed bail.

Rapist jailed for twenty yearsDaniel Stoffie Ngobeni (20) from Ga-Sek-gopo outside Modjadjiskloof was sen-tenced to twenty years imprisonment for raping a young girl aged eleven years. The incident occurred at Ga-Sekgopo in No-vember 2013 when the suspect met the vic-tim walking with her friends from church to her home. The suspect threatened the young girls with a knife. They ran away and he grabbed the victim, took her to his home and raped her. The sentence is highly welcomed by the SAPS.

Wanted suspect in custodyThlana Benea (28), a previ-ously most-wanted mur-der suspect from Ethiopia, handed himself over to the Police, aft er he had re-portedly seen pictures of himself in newspapers. He appeared in the Naphuno Magistrates Court, Lenye-nye, on a charge of murder earlier in the week. He was

denied bail and lodged an application for bail again yesterday — aft er the Bulletin had gone to print. The deceased cannot be named yet, pending certain protocols between the two countries to be cleared up.

Suspects behind barsThe police in Bolobedu have arrested the fol-lowing 46 suspects on various criminal ac-tivities over the past weekend: 29 people got arrested for drinking in public, six for assault GBH, four for assault, three for rape and the

rest got arrested for theft of a motor vehicle, malicious damage to property, robbery and reckless and negligent driving.

Man impersonated Policeman

A 30-year-old man was recently arrested for impersonating a Police offi cer in the Tzaneen CBD. The police received information from shoppers that a man with a Police identity card was robbing people.

During his arrest, the 30-year-old was found with the fake Police identity card, as well as bank and clothing account cards. He ap-peared in the Tzaneen Magistrates Court ear-lier in the week. His case has been postponed for further investigation.

The Tzaneen SAPS say cases in which bank users are approached by thieves claiming to be Police offi cers aft er drawing money are common. The thieves reportedly tell people that they have to check that it was not stolen money, since money had been stolen and it is back in circulation.

Wall kills two womenThe police in Maake are investigating an ac-cident at Suiker Farm (next to the Tzaneen-Lydenburg road) on Friday last week, when a wall collapsed, killing two women. The women were sitt ing next to the wall while a

tractor was busy working on the other side of the wall. The wall allegedly started cracking and ultimately fell over and onto them. Both died instantly. They were identifi ed as Shalati Nyambi (61) and Mandy Margaret (age un-known). The police will continue investigat-ing the accident.

Manhunt for robbery suspect The Police in Tzaneen launched a massive man-hunt for a suspect who al-legedly robbed a 67-year-old man from R40 000 at a bank in Tzaneen late last year. The suspect, Maropeng Moses Masetla (41), allegedly en-tered one of the banks in Tzaneen, claiming to be a SAPS detective. He called the victim, saying that he needed to interrogate him in connection with a case of robbery. He then proceeded to rob the victim and disap-peared.

Masetloa is said to be residing in Tickyline, Lenyenye. The police request the victim to report to the Tzaneen Police or his nearest po-lice station to assist with investigations. Ma-setla was previously arrested and sentenced to two years imprisonment for robbery in 2008, but was later released on parole.

Anyone with information of his wherea-bouts may also contact their nearest police station or D/constable Mohale Matshwi on 076 924 1237, Col James Espach on 082 451 7169 or the SAPS Crime stop number 08600 10111 which is available 24/7.

Police arrested 69The Police in Tzaneen arrested 69 people for various criminal activities over the past week: twenty people got arrested for pros-titution, twelve for shoplifting and eight for contravening the Road Traffic Act, seven for illegal gambling, four for assault GBH, four for having counterfeit goods in their possession, four for theft, two for drinking in public, two for reckless and negligent driving, two for possession of unlicensed firearms and the rest for housebreaking and theft, rape, fraud and impersonating a Police officer.

oor spelterapie en spesifi ek oor die gevolge van verlies vir die kind. Kontak haar by 084 414 6166 of 015 307 5029.

Kinders vorm ‘n band met vol-wassenes weens hul behoeft e aan veiligheid en sekuriteit. Wanneer so ‘n belangrike volwassene van die toneel ver-dwyn, verlang die kind en fokus intens op die verlies.

Rusteloosheid, ongeorgani-seerdheid, smart, angs en protestering oor die verlies kan voorkom. Hoe hegter die band met die volwassene hoe meer intens is die roureaksies.

Die 2-5 -jarige vorm al hegte bande met die volwassene en ervaar die verlies meer intens. Kinders ervaar dieselfde emo-sies tydens rou as volwassenes — hul tree dalk net anders op.

Nog simptome:Rou en verlies in die vroeë

kindfase (1-3-jariges) kan meebring dat kinders meer afh anklik raak en minder wil ondersoek instel en eksperi-menteer . Dit is hul ervaring van skeiding wat onsekerheid meebring.

Huil en aandagsoek kan nog ñ simptoom wees. Die jong kind kan nie verduur om vir lang tye te rou nie en wis-sel dit af met spel of droom. Die jong kind is op sy kwes-baarste om emosionele - en gedragspro-bleme op te doen omdat hulle die minste per-soonlike hulpbronne tot hulle beskikking het. Angs, vrees, skeidingsangs/klouerige ge-drag, blaas en stoelgangpro-bleme, regressie en geïrri-teerdheid kan ook simptome wees. Kinders kan hulself maklik blameer vir die verlies.

Verliese in die kinderjare sluit die volgende in:

• Verhoudings: dood of afwesigheid van n persoon of dier;

• Omgewing: verlies as

gevolg van verhuising, nuwe skool of natuurramp

• Vaardighede: byvoorbeeld teruggehou word op skool, fi siese gestremheid

• Eksterne objekte : speel-ding wat wegraak, diefstal

• Self: verlies van n tand of ledemaat, verlies aan selfwaarde as gevolg van mis-handeling of verwaarlosing

• Gewoontes: afl eer van duimsuig, naelsbyt of roe-tines wat verander.

Hantering:Kinders moet eintlik meer

steun as volwassenes in rou ontvang omdat kinders nog nie aan hul emosies kan uiting gee nie en nie die situasie verstaan nie. Kinders moet toegelaat word om te rou en uiting te gee aan emosies soos woede.

Ouers en onderwysers moet onthou, probleemgedrag is n noodkreet!Bron: Classen, D. 2010. Opvoedkun-dig-sielkundige riglyne in die hanter-ing van rou en verlies by die jong kind. UNISA.

Challenging the law(s)Not so long ago, during an informal dis-cussion in our offi ces, as senior Bulletin journalist expressed grave concern about “the fact that South Africa has become a lawless society” — only to be corrected by a junior colleague saying that “we have laws and thus it can’t be a matt er of law-lessness, but rather of people not respect-ing (or fearing) the laws of the country”.

This truth — that people seem to have lost all fear of or respect for the law — is to be witnessed in ou area as well, on a daily basis. Motorists, developers, con-tractors, builders, hawkers, pedestrians... name them, don’t hesitate to ignore laws and by-laws and law enforcement offi c-ers (those with clean hands!) are being challenged head-on when they dare to apply the law or to promote orderliness.

We have indeed become a law challeng-ing society and the results (as have just been seen in Soweto and other townships in the Jo’burg area) could further destroy our democracy.

At the heart of the problem is political leaders’ lack of will to promote respect for the law, and to have the law being en-forced withou fear or favour.

It’s saddening to see a great country being slowly ruined by a citizenry who abuse the law, evade the law and simply ignore it in on almost every level of society.

Our Opinion Die Boodskap

Do we still have room for Ladies & Gentlemen in society?

So I have heard a couple too many people (men) say they hear femi-nists and the gender equality non-sense, but they would still like women to be ladies.

This made me think, are these gendered social classes still rel-evant in society and importantly, what does it mean to be a Lady or a Gentleman? I use capital initials to separate the classes from the gen-eral reference to all women or men.

Back in the days — at least as far back as the 1700s, a gentleman, ac-cording to the literature of the time, was essentially a man with a con-siderable income (middle class).

So much is said today about the character of a gentleman; however, back then, the char-acter was arguably meaningless without fi nancial back-up.

For example, early in Charles Dickens’ David Copperfi eld, David tries to console litt le Em’ly, an orphan, about the loss of her parents by relating the loss of his own father.

To show David the fault of his comparison, litt le Em’ly says, “Be-sides, your father was a gentleman and your mother is a lady; and my father was a fi sherman and my mother was a fi sherman’s daughter, and my uncle Dan is a fi sherman.”

The Uncle Dan (Mr Peggoty) litt le Em’ly refers to here is a very kind and selfl ess man who adopted her and another orphan, Ham, respec-tively when their parents died at sea.

He lives in a small boat-turned-house by the sea in Yarmouth, where he fi shes and takes care of his family. The family includes a Mrs Gummidge, the widow of his once boat partner who also died at sea.

However, although in this case Mr

Peggoty — the brother of David’s maidser-vant (Clara) Peggoty — is “as good as gold and as true as steel,” as Peggoty describes him, he is too poor to be a Gentleman.

It is thus not by habit that David introduces Mr Murdstone — a very “grave”, “cold” and abusive business-man who later marries his mother — as a Gentleman. The term was by many means a classist term and had very litt le to do with one’s good demeanour.

A Lady, on the other hand, was a woman married to a man of high rank. The books of Jane Austen ex-

tensively discuss the nature of Ladies. Moreover, perhaps unlike Gentle-

men, Ladies mainly subscribed to a certain air of demeanour.

In Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, Elizabeth is criticised by the ladies of Netherfi eld for walking a long dis-tance in mud to go and att end to her sick sister. This was arguably in scru-tiny of her eligibility to be married to a noble man and become a Lady.

Ladies were instead somewhat immobile. They would organise their households, but they had serv-ants to do the physical work.

Are the terms things we still want to embrace in society? To be con-tinued... * Let me know what you think by visit-ing our website and commenting.

For crying out loudBy Joy Mojela

Jesus’ life here on earth can be divided into fi ve phases:

Infancy PreparationPopularityPassionRisen LifeIf we use these phases as we

study the life of Christ here on earth, perhaps, we can bett er understand what He actually did for us. We were not there during His Infancy, Preparation, Popularity or Passion, but we are part of His Risen life, if we have ac-cepted Christ into our lives. He gave us the guidelines during His life here on earth.

He lived on earth as a human and therefore He experienced all we experience, but He be-lieved in His Father and the direction He gave Him. We too need to believe in the same direction that He gives us. This takes a tremendous amount of faith, which for many of us is or seems impossible.

We are living in a corrupt world, a world where there

are so many pressures to con-form to what is popular at that specifi c time, otherwise we may be considered as not “with it”. Yet with all we re-ceive from our Heavenly Fa-ther, we can still achieve this and much more. We need only to believe we have the talents which He gave us to grow in faith. He is with us every step of the way.

Jesus was also considered by some as “weird”. He of-ten did not fi t in with those who considered themselves the “elite”, so we need not to worry what others think of us, provided we are follow-ing Jesus’ example.

Paul in his lett er to the Ro-mans (Romans 2:12) tells us how to act.

“Do not conform any longer to the patt ern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is — His good, pleasing and per-fect will.”

Verlies en die kind

A little paint here & there...

It was such a beautiful Tuesday morning… that it persuaded Elder and Sister Campbell of the Church of the Latter Day Saints in Circle Road, Tzaneen, to give the special information sign on the pavement a new coat-

ing, without knowing of the presence of a curious cameraman.

• Hilanie of soiets het op die skip gaan vaar, sonder ‘n gevryery, maar daar’s ‘n ander antie wat sê “if your luck runs out” en jy’s uitgevry, gaan jy oorsee... • Die paddas in die vlei — niks te make met destyds se Opsitkers-liedjie van Groep Twee se Sias Reinecke en Gert van Tonder nie — moet versigtig wees. Die wiel van die gereg draai dikwels baie stadig, maar dit draai darem steeds (nou nie altyd vir almal in hoë posisies nie!). Gooi nou nog by die padda en die

vuurvlieg (van Sias en Gert) ‘n skerpi-oen en dinge kan lol...• Daar’s ‘n nuwe vriendskap in die straat langs die dam, langs die huis met al die grênd motors. Nou wonder die mense wie gaan dié keer aan die verloorkant wees. Die Kruger-miljoene droog nooit heeltemal op nie...• Iemand soek sterk waspoeier, nadat daar amper van aangesig tot aangesig met ‘n leeu kennis gemaak is. Geluk met jou verjaarsdag, Christie!...

Hulle kan nie sê nie, want mens kan nie praat as jou

tong in jou kies is nie!

NY also bans styrofoam A takeaway cup can last thousands of years in the

environment

New York mayor Bill de Blasio announced a ban on the sale and use of styrofoam cups, food containers and packing material. polystyrene (EPS) is not a recyclable product.The new law prohibits food service establishments, stores and manufacturers from possessing, selling or off ering single-service EPS foam articles or polystyrene loose-fi ll packaging in that city. De Blasio was reported to be optimistic about the ban’s environmental impact. It is expected to keep nearly 30 000 tonnes of EPS waste out of the city’s landfi lls and streets. In 2011 California’s senate voted to phase out the use of styrofoam in that

state by 2014.The common styrofoam container is incredibly eff ective at keeping warm things warm and cool things cool and it is extraordinarily cheap. “Studies have shown that styrofoam accounts for as much as

15% of stormwater litter, and it’s the second-most prevalent type of beach debris. Quite apart from the disposal problems it presents to local authorities, due to its light weight, the material breaks down into beads and can be carried long distances on winds and ocean currents, wreaking havoc on wildlife.”

Ek deel graag my mening oor hierdie baie omstrede onderwerp, op versoek van die Bulletin se redakteur. My mening is uit en uit geskoei op my ervaring by die skool waaraan ek verbonde is.

Die belangrikheid van ‘n eenvormige skooldrag is ‘n goed nagevorsde en algemeen aanvaarde beginsel wat ek ook glad nie van plan is om te bevraagteken nie. Dit is ‘n voldonge feit dat dit samehorigheid, dissipline en ‘n gevoel van geborgenheid by leer-linge bevorder.

Die debat oor skooldrag gaan vol-gens my dus nie oor die noodsaak-likheid daarvan al dan nie, maar wel oor die bekostigbaarheid daarvan. In ons skool het ons die pad gestap van duur skooldrag wat deur ‘n enkele leweransier verskaf was, wat toe afgeskaal is na self ontwerpte gholfh empies en broeke met skoolwapen en al, tot waar ons vandag is met relatiewe goedkoop skooldrag wat ouers by enige “Jet Stores” kan koop.

Weliswaar is ons skooldrag nie meer uniek aan ons skool nie en lyk ons leerlinge net soos duisende ander reg oor die land, en is die gehalte ook nie noodwendig van die beste nie, maar dit is redelik bekostigbaar.

Personeel en beheerrade staan jaarliks gekonfronteer met die uitdaging van baie duur skooldrag en in die

huidige ekonomiese klimaat moet die ouers se uit-gawes en fi nansiële vermoëns of onvermoëns volgens my voorkeur geniet.

Ek glo daar is ander innoverende opsies, as daadwerk-lik met erns daarna gesoek word. Ek het juis onlangs per toeval voor Wierdapark Laerskool in Pretoria gestaan, toe die skool uitkom. Al die kinders (seuns en meisies) het denim langbroeke of denim kniebroeke gedra, met ‘n wit

hemp daarby. Ek was beïndruk dat dié skool geslaag het om ‘n eenvormige skooldrag te hê. Die skooldrag is baie duur-saam, prakties en meerdoelig, aangesien die leerlinge hul denims ook tuis oor naweke en skoolvakansies kan dra. Ek glo hierdie is net een voorbeeld van ‘n skool wat innoverend dink en optree.

Dit is maar net my beskeie mening en ervaring wat ek met u deel, maar ek is oortuig dat die probleem van duur skool-

drag nog vir lank met ons gaan wees. Ek moet dit ten slott e duidelik stel dat ek geensins ‘n voorstander is van die wegdoen van eenvormige skooldrag nie. Ek persoon-lik kan getuig hoe leerlinge se gedrag en die algemene dis-sipline verander, as hulle toegelaat word om met gewone klere van hul eie keuse skool toe te kom.

Skooldrag: Steek op jul hande vir ‘n Ja of ‘n NeeHoof van ‘n baie

spesiale skool skryf:Skooldrag is gereeld aan die begin van ‘n nuwe jaar in die nuus — en so gereeld as wat dit koerante en selfs tydskrift e se nuuskolomme haal, so gereeld is daar die mense wat daarvoor is en die wat daar-teen is. Diegene wat vir skooldrag is, wys daarop dat eenvor-migheid lojaliteit en trots kweek, netjies lyk en dus net-heid by die kinders bevorder en dat dit grootliks bydra om leerlinge, die onder-wysers en selfs die ouers in ‘n hegte eenheid saam te snoer.

Die mense wat daartéén is, gee meesal toe dat die voor-dele soos hierbo genoem ge-wig dra, maar hulle voer aan daar is dinge wat die koste van skooldrag oor die grens van redelikheid stoot. Hulle het dit veral teen “uitspatt ighede” — soos dat die skoolwapen teen relatief groot koste op omtrent al wat ‘n skoolkledingstuk is moet pryk. Hierby word aangevoer dat doelgemaakte

skooldrag gewoonlik deur een winkel verkoop word, wat dus ‘n monopolie het.

Doelgemaakte skooldrag is kledingstukke wat vanweë ‘n bepaalde kleur, snit en

unieke bykom-stighede (skool-wapen, hoed, pet, strooihoed [cheese cutt er], das, serp, ensovoorts) nie by “gewone” klere- of kett ingwinkels soos Pep, Acker-mans, Woolworths en ander gekoop kan word nie.

Die Bulletin het twee mense genooi om hul

standpunte hieroor te stel. Eerste aan die beurt is mnr John Eastes, die hoof van die Letaba Skool vir Gestremdes in Nkowankowa. Hy is ‘n gesoute onderwysman tot in die murg van sy pype en hy word hoog aangeskryf in onderwyskringe, veral wanneer dit by spesiale onderwys kom.

Hiernaas gee Eastes sy stand-punt oor dié saak, wat vir baie mense baie delikaat is.

Five Gr 11 pupils and Mr Denis and Ms Shirley Jack from Stanford Lake College att ended the International Round Square Conference in Jordan. The Gr 11’s who at-tended are Atiyah Kalla, Reneilwe Komape, Stuart Lunt, Ammaarah Tayob and Naledi Kgosana.

Al Salamu Alaikum — Peace Be Upon You. This is a com-mon greeting in the Middle-East and the theme for the un-forgett able and, unfortunately, ephemeral Round Square International Conference, set in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan — a part of the world laden with confl ict.

The seemingly bewildering theme for the conference served to raise the anticipation of SLC’s delegation; as if countless hours dreaming of the endless shopping to be

done and gett ing lost in the city of Dubai during the pre-conference tour hadn’t already done so!

The hospitable King’s Academy not only met our antici-pations, but surpassed any and every expectation in the most spectacular of ways, as the hosts of the conference. The amazing and thought-provoking speakers off ered new and diff erent perspectives of Middle-Eastern con-fl ict, eye-opening and enjoyable service projects, as well as the amazing opportunity to learn from and make tons of new friends from around the world.

These were only a few of the aspects of the conference which we experienced whilst enjoying the most fun times! It was all made absolutely memorable.

Die Lego Blokkies spel sukses

Na slegs drie dae waartydens hulle kon inoefen het Plasieland se skiewies hul talente op die planke tydens die jaarlikse groentjiekonsert, met die tema “The yellow brick road”, ten toon gestel.

Die tonele het soos volg afgespeel: Phineas en Faan is op soek na avontuur en onderneem die reis van hul lewens. Hul word aangemoedig deur die spook-stem van Frikkie Deysel om die yellow brick road te volg. Die bose Cheshire Cat probeer egter die reis saboteer. Op pad ontmoet hulle ses karaktervolle

lego-blokkies, wat deel vorm van allerlei opwin-dende gebeure. Aan die einde van die reis wag ‘n heerlike verrassing.

Daar was lett erlik nie plek vir ‘n muis in die stampvol skoolsaal nie en alle vorige bywoningsre-kords is oortref (meer as agt honderd gaste). Aan die einde van die konsert het elke skiewie ‘n sertifi kaat van die skoolhoof, mnr Magnus Steyn, ontvang. Hulle het ook die tradisie voortgesit deur die bees-klok te lui, wat eers weer in 2019 sal gebeur wanneer

hul matrikuleer.Die 2014/2015-leerlingraadslede onder wie se lei-

ding die konsert plaasgevind het, het ook ‘n groot bydrae tot die sukses van die konsert gelewer. Die dekorspan het gedurende die Desember-vakansie kliphard gewerk en die matriek-choreograwe het selfs die gr 8’s met twee linkervoete laat wys dat hulle kan dans! Keurige kostuums en grimering met heerlike musiek het gesorg dat oud en jonk ‘n heer-like genotvolle aand kon geniet.

Tydens die geleentheid plant elke gr 8-klas ‘n boom om hul groei in die skool van gr 8 tot gr 12 te simboliseer. Die bome wat vanjaar geplant is, is die baie bekende Spindle Palm (Hyophorbe verschaffeltii). Dié boom is ‘n asembe-nemende palm wat uitstekend groei en staan onder meer bekend as ‘n natuur-like detoksifiseerder, wat bydra om kool-stofmonoksied uit die lug te verwyder en met suurstof te vervang.

die plantseremonie deelgeneem het.

Pupils receive free uniforms

Vossies plant asembenemende palms

Parents of Nhluvuko High School in Gi-yani are extremely happy and thankful aft er a radio station had donated school uniform to 160 pupils. The radio station runs a campaign every year in January, to help underprivileged pupils get uni-forms and essential study material.

According to the radio station’s mar-

keting manager, Ms Vongi Nkanyani, most of the classrooms at the school had no doors or windows before the station embarked on a campaign to fi nd donors to help them fi x the classrooms. It fi xed the school with help from the correctional services, which provided free labour.

Ms Mkateko Hlungwani), a teacher at Nhluvuko, is seen handing out uniforms to pu-pils. She was assisted by an official of the correctional services.

Pupils at Nhluvuko High School make for a nice picture of uniformity in their spanking new uniforms, donated by a

SCHOOL NEWS | SKOLE NUUS

Aan die einde van 2014 het twee van die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se leerlin-graadslede verhuis en twee seuns is in hul plekke gekies: Deon van Zyl en Sarel Sibuyi moet nou van-jaar hul skoene saam met die res van die leerlingraadspan vol-staan en leiding by

die skool gee.

During coming weeks the Bulletin will feature in-depth articles on sub-stance abuse. Leading the discussion is well known Tzaneen pharmacist Mr Pieter Geldenhuys, widely known as Piet Pille — a name that stuck aft er a quirky moment on the Letaba rugby fi eld years ago.

Piet Pille was appointed Limpopo representative of the now defunct Drugwise council in 1991. Since then he’s continued to be involved with substance abuse and, together with a knowledgeable inter-disciplinary team of specialists — called the Substance Abuse Prevention Centre (SAPC) — he continues to be the fi rst port of call for substance abusers and their families throughout the Limpopo province.

In 99.9% of substance abuse cases, there’s a specifi c reason for the abuse. It oft en starts at home, just as physical, mental and emotional skill building (should) start at home. A person’s sense of wellbeing can be aff ected, negatively or positively, as early as in the womb. When a foetus is unwant-ed, it can translate into psychological problems later in life.

This is especially true if it concerns the mother, who is of-ten perceived by the child as the centre of their universe, whereas the father is more oft en the disciplinarian and sett er of boundaries – a completely diff erent role in the child’s life.

When babies cry, they cry for a reason. A mother that re-sponds by shouting compounds the baby’s stress. The baby

cannot yet ex-press its needs and gets shout-ed at when he is in need. This child is likely to develop into a person who has a quick temper and lapses into verbal att acks as protection. Conversely, if a child is treated with respect and love, if the child is given regular healthy doses of loving, physical contact, it creates a feel-ing of You’re-ok-I’m-ok and the child is likely to develop into a

more well-adapted person. As the child develops, more than physical contact

is required to maintain this atmosphere that all is well. The loving parent-child relationship needs to be augmented with the PACT concept — Parent And Child Talk. It becomes ultra important to the welfare of the child to spend time with his parents around the dining or kitchen table, talking and in-teracting. Quality time around the table creates the opportunity for parents to really get to know their child, and vice versa. Studies done by Dr Sean Zeel-ie, a specialist on drug abuse, have shown that a child who spends time with his parents around the

table seven or more times a week, has his chances of becom-ing a drug addict reduced to a mere 2%. On the other hand, families who interact around a table less than twice a week increases drug addiction in the child to more than 50%. PACT helps the child grow emo-tionally and psychologically. The bonds it helps to create strengthen the child’s sense of wellbeing and build his rela-tionship with his parents.

SAPC sees a lot of sub-stance abuse in cases of di-vorce. Children up to the age of 5 feel the backlash of divorce the most severely, as they are not able to verbal-ise the pain of divorce. This can again lead to emotional and psychological complica-tions, which in turn can once again lead to drug abuse. As Geldenhuys says, substance abuse is a symptom of a problem. Children as young as ten are struggling with ad-diction problems.

SAPS is very supportive, and SAPC would like to see abusers in rehabilitation cen-tres rather than prison. Of se-rious concern is the fact that years ago marĳ uana used to be a gateway drug. That’s

not the case anymore as children now move straight to their drug of choice.

Substance abuse continues to es-calate, but is surfacing more oft en

as abusers become aware that help is available. The Substance Abuse Prevention Centre enjoys the services

of dr Gary Middleton, (with dr André Botes in an advisory capacity), therapist Ms Doreen Lemmer, the director of men-tal health in Limpopo Mr Carel Mouton, occult therapist Ms Debbie Kayser and Ms Anza van Vuuren, previously the de-partment of education’s representative at SAPC.

The centre is not an institution where patients are absorbed into a system. It works on an out-patient basis and, through referrals, the person is directed to the specialist most suited to his needs. Everything is highly confi dential and all other health care professionals endorse this centre.

Té lekker!Linda Mienie ([email protected]) skryf per e-pos: Ek rig hierdie skrywe aan u koer-ant vir kommentaar op die bo-genoemde (verwysend na die foto op bl 6 van die Bulletin se uitgawe van 23 Januarie 2015).

Het die persoon wat die foto geneem het en die byskrif by die foto geplaas het met die be-trokke ampetenaar/skoonmaker gesels en uitgevind hoekom hy ‘npalmtak in plaas van die besem wat wel aan hom/haar verskaf is gebruik?

Ek glo nie! Dit is mos te lekker om die munisipaliteit te blameer vir alles wat sleg en verkeerd is. Hoekom kom neem die fototgraaf of die persoon nie liewers foto’s van die mense wat hul swart vul-lissakke op ‘n weekdag wanneer hulle hul kinders by die laerskool afl aai sommer ook langs die vul-lisdrom neersit nie (is dit miskien mense van die plase af wat niediensfooie in die dorp betaal nie en waarvoor ek en jy moet betaal?)

Kom kyk gerus ook op ‘n Son-dag hoeveel vullissakke langs die vullisdrom by die laerskool se hoofh ek gelos word, om nie eers van na-ure te praat nie (be-wyse van agente van onder meer Herbal Life se agente se verpak-king is gevind).

Verder word bourommel som-mer op oop erwe gestort (regoor Lannie Motors in Boundary-weg) deur mense wat net te lui en suinig is om stortingsterrein toe te gaan. (Nee wat dit is mos baie lekkerder en goedkoper om jou gemors op iemand anders se

grond en rekening te los!). Het naam van die oortreder.

Dan praat ek nie eers van die tuinvullis wat sommer op sypaadjies en op oop stukke grond gegooi word nie.(Wan-neer dit gratis by die stortings-terrein afgelaai kan word!).O ja praat tog assblief van ‘n stortingsterrein en nie asgate nie. Kom besoek gerus die stort-ingsterrein en word ingelig!Nee wat mense kry jul feite agtermekaar aangesien jul-le so daarop roem dat julle vreesloos die waarheid praat.• Dankie vir u brief. Maar ai, is ons Suid-Afrikaners dan nou besig om ook ons sin vir humor te ver-loor? Die foto is gebruik soos baie voor die gewraakte een en baie wat nog sal volg, om ‘n ligter oomblik te bied. Die woordspelings in die byskrif dui tog daarop — en dit is in elk geval mos nie alledaags om ‘n straatveër (hoop dit is die regte woord) met ‘n yslike verlepte palmtak ‘n straat te sien vee nie. Oor die onbedagsame storting van vullis op leë persele en in die bosse/plantasies rondom Tzaneen het die Bulletin al byna tot vervelens toe berig en met foto’s toegelig.

Eweneens het die Bulletin ook al verskeie berigte gedra oor die goeie orde by die stortingsterrein en die goeie werk wat gedoen word om dit netjies te hou. Hoe selektief lees u dan?

Wat betref die woord asgate is dit ook met die tong in die kies gebruik — so ‘n ondeunde woordspeling in “Die Mense hoor”, wat nog altyd ‘n mengsel van ondeunde gekskeer en terg met woordspeling was.

Terloops, die jongste uitgawe (die vyfde) van die HAT, steeds die gesaghebbendste en volledigste verkla-rende woordeboek vir Afrikaans, naas die etlike volumes (twaalf plus) van die Afri-kaanse Woordeboek, gee steeds die woord asgat aan en verklaar dit as ‘n gat (terrein) waarin vullis gestort word.

Laastens weet ons nie na watt er feite u ver-wys wat ons dan nou nie agtermekaar het nie; en u vermaning oor vreesloos die waar-heid het die implikasie dat ons nie die waar-heid praat/skryf nie. U kan gerus daarop uit-brei, sodat ons dit kan regstel. — Redakteur

It is a shambles. A total disaster!The latest assessment report for

the fi re function of the Mopani Fire and Rescue Services, drawn up by the Fire Protection Association of SA, the country’s most authoritative body to do these assessments, paints an alarming picture of a local district government that is a shambles.

In fact, it could be said that Mo-pani’s fi re function that should con-tain disasters, is in itself a disaster!

Outdated and unserviceable vehi-cles and equipment, the call-taking centre (for all emergencies) is not ful-ly operational, no risk profi le for the towns and district and classifi cation of the area is not available, a num-ber of vehicles don’t comply with the SANS 10090 recommendations and general safety By-law enforcement is limited due to manpower shortages.

A serious irregularity regarding oc-cupancy certifi cates is stated in the report, saying that occupancy certifi -cates are issued in spite of outstand-ing fi re safety recommendations.

In the meantime the Bulletin has also seen a report warning the MDM about the staff shortages.

According to our information the fi re function has to try and execute their duties while there is 85 vacan-

cies, making it almost impossible to render any sort of service.

We have been told that the sen-ior offi cials and councillors of the MDM could face huge claims if a fi re would, for example, cause big damage to property and especially if human life is compromised. Because senior management and councillors are and have been aware of the se-rious situation for some time and furthermore because they have not done enough to address the problem and appoint people to fi ll the vacant posts, they could be held responsible jointly and severally for damages.

The vacant posts have been adver-tise, but no appoints were made, since it was said that there is no money to pay the people.

Read our report elsewhere on this page about the MDM’s current crisis regarding payment of wages and salaries.

We will continue to investigate the critical situation facing the MDM’s fi nancial problems, and inform our readers accordingly.

Daar lê baie meer probleme as net die vas-gevalde kruiptrekker in die spruitjie en vleige-bied langs Bert Booyensstraat in Tzaneen.

Limpopo se departement van ekono-miese ontwikkeling, omgewingsake en toe-risme (LEDET) en die Groen Skerpioene soek antwoorde op kwelvrae oor sekere ontwikkelings wat rondom die spruit aangepak is. Alle bedrywighede is reeds twee maande gelede gestaak, terwyl omgewingsbewustes begin toesak het op die behoud van die spruit en sy ekologiese inhoud.

Betroubaar word verneem dat die Groen Skerpioene pro-beer vasstel of daar steeds aan die bepalings van die oor-spronklike omgewingsimpakstudie (EIA) voldoen word, terwyl ondersoek ook gedoen word oor die geldigheid van reg van ontwikkeling (ROD) en die toepassing van die Wa-

tergebruikswet.In dele van die spruit is bane aangebring en bome ontwortel,

terwyl dit ook begrens word deur ‘n baie groot hoop grond wat glo tydelik daar opgeberg word. Werk aan ‘n groot uit-grawing vir die bou van ‘n nuwe kompleks vir ‘n motorgroep is ook gestaak, omdat dit volgens mnr Thabang Nong van die Skerpioene ‘n onwett ige ontwikkeling is.

‘n Omgewingskundige van Tzaneen, mnr Frederick Pohl, sê volgens wet mag geen bouwerk nader as vyft ig meter van ‘n spruit se vloeilyn opgerig word nie, terwyl etlike ander be-palings vir ontwikkeling langs ‘n spruit nagekom moet word.

Pohl is besig met sy M-graad in omgewingskunde.Die spruit is deel van ‘n groter vleilandgebied wat reeds

deur groter ontwikkelings binnegedring en grootliks ver-woes is.

Die Bulletin is besig met ‘n omvatt ende ondersoek na die aangeleenthede en ons sal ons lesers, waarvan baie erg beswaard is oor die stelselmatige vernietiging van die vlei-land en die spruit, deurlopend ingelig hou (en soos ons vorder).

� e MDM’s time bomb

Hier kom ‘n ding

A “Coffee for Marcelle Day” will be held at Twig’s, 4 Boundary Street, Tzaneen on Satur-day 7th February at 10a.m. Twig’s owner, Ms Dale Kenney, says it’s a morning to show that the province cares about its people. T-shirts and mugs inscribed with the words “Coffee for Mar-celle Day” will be sold and the public is asked to bring banners, presents and messages of sup-

port for Marcelle. Marcelle van Vuuren (23), a well known and loved hair stylist in Tzaneen, had a head-on-collision near Soekmekaar in December. Passenger, Ms Carla Swart, died. Marcelle was transported to a Pretoria hospital, where she’s still under the watchful care of plastic surgeon. She had both legs amputated above the knee with severe back and internal injuries. She’s had several opera-tions and has had painful debriding sessions on her stumps and other areas.

Fire Tim Maake, or suspend him. We couldn’t care less. We just want our money.

So said the secretary of Samwu (the SA Municipal Workers Un-ion) in Mopani, Pastor Mafumo, yesterday. He was leading a big group of MDM workers to the of-fi ces of the MDM in Tzaneen.

Later in the day they handed a memorandum to the MDM’s may-or, the chief whip and the speaker.

According to a report from the MDM the January salaries could not be paid due to unforeseen reasons. These reasons allegedly include an accusation that money owed to the MDM by die Limpopo Government has not been paid.

However, our information is that the government has refused to assist with any payments to the MDM, until the situation with municipal manager Tim Maake has been resolved.

The MDM started a process to suspend Maake a number of weeks ago, but until yesterday aft ernoon nothing further has

happened. The MDM followed the wrong procedures when they suspended him two weeks ago.

Allegations of mismanagement and corruption in the MDM have been doing the rounds for about the last two to three years.

A senior member of the ANC in Mopani, who understandably does not want to be identifi ed, said to us “Maake knows too much” and “if he sinks, a number of high pro-fi le people will also sink.”

According to this seemingly well informed person Maake will ac-cept a golden handshake (of a sub-stantial amount), but he will also demand exemption from prosecu-tion. Maake was indeed arrested in Lenyenye last year and his case has allegedly been referred to the High Court in Pretoria.

Details of the case and the charg-es against him seem to be kept top secret and eff orts by the Bulletin to obtain more information have so far been unsuccessful.

Merensky se eerstespan-krieketspelers se superliga Finsbury-seisoen het die afgelope naweek afgeskop, toe hulle Kemptonpark toe is om daar teen die Hoërskool Kempton-park kragte te meet.

Kemptonpark het die loot gewen en besluit om eerste te kolf. Die Kempies is vir 222 lo-pies uitgehaal en toe volg daar ‘n nael-bytstryd van die eerste water. Merensky se kêrels het vir die vale wal gegooi en uiteinde-lik 223 lopies behaal, maar eers in die laaste boulbeurt en met slegs een paaltjie staande. Goeie veldwerk met besondere vangskote het baie tot die Plasies se oorwinning byge-dra.

Uitstekende boulwerk deur Ruurd Jacobs — 4 paaltjies in 10 boulbeurte vir slegs 29

lopies — het ‘n groot verskil gemaak om die Plasies op die wenpad te kry. Uitstaande kolfwerk deur Niyko Shikwambana met 60 lopies en Asad Patel met 48 het ook baie ge-help om die Plasies se basse te red.

Die o.15 A-span het Kempton op hul tuisveld ontmoet. Hierdie bloedjong span toon beloft e, maar moes vireers die onderspit delf.

Albei spanne speel more teen PHS.

Sulke prysgeld laat TV-kykers lippe afl ekIn net drie van die vernaamste sportbyeen-komste wat dié naweek regstreeks op TV gebeeldsend word, ding die deelnemers om sowat R460 miljoen mee.

Ná die Australiese ope tenniskampioen-skappe in Melbourne kry die enkelspelkampi-oene elk ŉ tjek wat in Suid-Afrika byna R28 mil-joen werd sal wees. Die ander deel wat van die totale prysgeld van byna R360 miljoen oorbly.

In Amerika kry die wenner van die tagtig-ste Phoenix Ope-gholftoernooi omtrent R13 miljoen van die 6,3 miljoen dollar (R72 miljoen) wat dié naweek op die spel is. En in Doebai neem byna ŉ dosyn Suid-Afrikaners deel aan ŉ toernooi waarvan die prysgeld omtrent R28 miljoen beloop.

Die geld is darem nie die enigste rede dat TV-kykers hul lippe a� ek nie. Nóg opwinding en skouspelagtige vertonings in eendaagse krieket en die Bulls se losmakerwedstryd teen die Engelse rugbyklub Saracens is ook op die kyklys, saam met die groot perdewed-ren, die J&B Met, in Kaapstad.

Daarby sal ŉ Suid-Afrikaner of wat dalk ook in die uitspeelwedstryde in Japan se voorste rug-byliga te sien wees, en stuur die Afrika-sokker op ŉ tandeknersery af.

Die Hoërskool Ben Vorster se o.15-krieket-span se kolwers het die naweek behoorlik gebaljaar in ‘n lopiefees teen Benoni High. Die Vossies het die loot gewen en besluit om eerste te kolf. Hulle het ‘n reusetelling van 275 lopies aangeteken, met WC Kriel (52), Vernon Harms (49) en Gideon Vorster (34 lopies) wat mooi tot die telling bygedra het.

Na middagete het die boulers van Ben Vorster met mening onder Benoni se kol-wers ingeklim en hulle vir slegs 66 lopies uitgeknikker! Fumani Maluleke het drie paaltjies geneem en Vernon Harms en Gideon Vorster twee elk.

Die Vossies het dus die wedstryd met 209 lopies gewen. Die eerste span was egter nie so gelukkig nie en moes die knie buig voor Benoni se eerstes. More speel BV tuis teen Alberton se Hoërskool Marais Viljoen.

Die Hoërskool Merensky se eerste krieketspan het die Finsbury-seisoen goed afgeskop. Agter staan Tivani Mushwana, Salmaan Ishani, Ras-sie Pretorius (kapt), Asad Patel (o.kapt), Dylan Oosthuize en mnr Wessel van Rooyen (afrigter) en voor is Richard Coleman, Ruurd Jacobs, Ny-iko Shikwambana, Viraj Devdhara, Timothy El-

phinstone en AJ Fourie.

Die Hoërskool Merensky het by die Hoërskool Rob Ferreira in Mbombela aan ‘n vriendskaplike interskole atletiekbyeenkoms teen agt skole — Lydenburg, Rob Ferreira, Komatipoort, Uplands, Bergvlam, Sybrand van Niekerk, Penryn en Curro Nelspruit — kragte gemeet en die byeenkoms gewen.

Die Plasies se atlete het 575 punte ingesamel. Lydenburg was tweede en Rob Ferreira derde. Nie minder nie as 46 goue medaljes, 25 silwer en 23 brons is deur die Plasies se presteerders huis toe gebring. Die Merensky-atlete het ook verskeie byeenkomsrekords laat spat.

Die belowende nuweling, Christelle Coetzer

(o.14), het nuwe rekords opgestel in die 200 m en die 400 m (kyk op bl 16). Abdul Hussein (o.17) het in die hoogspring ‘n nuwe rekord opgestel (1,85 m), Tertius Kruger (o.19) het in die spiesgooi vir ‘n nuwe rekord gesorg (60,28, vorige rekord 53,50 m) en Phillemon Mabidilala (o.19) spog met ‘n nuwe rekord agter sy naam in die 110 m-hekkies (15:00 sek; vorige rekord 15,09 sek).

Atletiekkoors loop hoog vir die komende interhoër byeenkoms in Polokwane, sowel as uitnodigingsbyeenkomste by Ben Viljoen in Groblersdal en die Hoërskool Piet Potgieter in Mokopane.

Vossies se o.15’s begin Finsbury op hoë noot

Teen ons beterwete vat Oubal en Kie verlede Saterdag die pad Pieter Mokaba Stadion toe, om die BB’e teen die Cheetahs te gaan kyk. Sonder hoë verwagtings, want Oubal ken voorseisoense losmakers — maar ons was desperaat om ‘n slag ‘n bietjie rakbie te sien.

‘Tja, wat ons gesien het was inderdaad ‘n “bietjie”, gemeet aan dit wat opgedis is. Die Cheetahs is mos nou eenmaal maar soos ‘n skool se eerste span wat elke jaar van voor af opgebou moet word. Oubal het ook nie verwag dat die BB’e hoofsaaklik tweedelinie-spelers sou gebruik nie. Boonop het onse Trevor hom op die nippertjie ontt rek, glo weens ‘n nekbesering en nie omdat hy die bus verpas het nie.

Piet van Zyl was een van die min ligpunte en ons weet nou ook dat Travis Ismael heelwat vinniger is as oupa Aikona Ndungane. Dit was ook goed om Arno Botha weer ‘n volle wedstryd te sien speel en dat Danie Mienie, voorheen van die Blouskool, vir die Cheetahs

uitgedraf het. Maar Oubal weet na dese nog nie of die 2015-model BB’e anders gaan wees as die 2014-weergawe nie. Die tyd sal leer.

Die gehalte van spel is egter ‘n faktor van die gehalte van afrigting, wat Oubal bring by ‘n brief wat hy verlede week van ‘n ou Yskorpêl ontvang het. Onder die skuilnaam “Bloubefoeterd”, want hy vrees dat hy verplig sal word om sy seisoenkaartjie te gebruik as sy identiteit bekend word in Loft usland.

‘Tja, neef Blou beweer hy het verlede jaar ‘n Wêreldrugby- (voorheen die IRB) intreevlak-afrigterskursus per korrespondensie voltooi

en hy gee wenke vir die BB’e, met die versoek dat Oubal dit aan Frans Ludeke oordra. Weens die stott erende Poskantoor het neef Blou se brief Oubal ongelukkig lank na die bestemde tyd bereik, maar dis dalk nog nie te laat nie.

Neef Blou se wenke vir Ludeke:1. Pak duiksakke in ‘n ry en laat die spelers

tussen hulle deurhardloop, sonder om aan ‘n enkele sak te raak.

2. Staan een meter van mekaar in ‘n ry en gee die bal luglangs aan, sonder om dit te laat val.

3. Plaas ‘n duiksak op die middelkolletjie en laat elke speler dit van links, regs en agter duik. As ‘n speler die duikslag mis weens ‘n onverwagse vaartversnelling van die sak, moet hy twee keer om die veld hardloop.

4. Lê ‘n duiksak op die middellyn neer en plaas ‘n rakbiebal aan die agterkant. Elke speler moet na die sak hardloop, sy hande daaroor steek en die bal by dit afneem, sonder om oor die sak te val. ‘n Suksesvolle speler kan gaan pizza eet, maar die mislukkings moet drie keer

om die veld hardloop.5. Laat die voorspelers die skrummasjien pak,

sonder ekstra gewig daarop. Stoot hulle dit twee meter terug sonder dat die stutt e val, mag elkeen twee hotdogs eet. Sou hulle val, of die skrummasjien stoot hulle vyf meter terug, moet elkeen twee keer om die veld hardloop.

6. As al bogenoemde doelwitt e bereik is, moet die spelers dieselfde program teen mekaar volg. Begin met een opponent en vermeerder hulle geleidelik — eers vyft ien teen een, dan vyft ien teen twee, ensovoorts. Dis sleg vir spelers se selfvertroue as hulle in die voorseisoen verloor, daarom moet hulle nie teen meer as tien opponente oefen nie — vul eerder die opponente aan met duiksakke.

‘Tja, Oubal verstaan nou neef Blou se seisoenkaartjievrees, maar hy vermoed sy bedenklike afrigterskursus het ook gely onder die posstaking! “It’s fi ne to celebrate succes, but it is more important to heed the lessons of failure.” — Bill Gates

Fienk Pienk!Bloubefoeterd!

Christelle Coetzer. Dié naam duik nou in haas elke gesprek in Limpopo oor skole-atletiek en belowende jong atlete op — en na die naweek se atletiek by Rob Ferreira in Mbombela is haar naam ook in Mpumalanga nie meer onbekend nie. Dié o.14-atleet van die Hoërskool Merensky het Saterdag by Rob Ferreira nuwe rekords in die 200 meter (27:90) én die 400 meter (1:02:57) opgestel. Sy sal voortaan fyn dopgehou word en as sy kan volhou en verder verbeter met sulke tye, gaan sy by die interhoër (in Polokwane) en die twee uitnodigingsbyeenkomste (in Groblersdal en Mokopane) haar stempel deeglik afdruk.

Stanford’s 1st team members who played against Northern Academy were, in front: Hlanhla Mohlaba, Matthew Maritz and Graeme Harty and behind them Declan Taggart, Justin Trueman, Estian Botha, Christian Schmidt, Bryce Reed, Conrad Schmidt, Bradley Penrose, Jason Wright

and Mr Shane Friedrichs (coach).

Lietsjietoernooi lok honderdeDie rolbalspelers van Modjadjiskloof is van-jaar se kampioene in die gewilde jaarlikse Liet-sjietoernooi, wat die afgelope naweek in Tza-neen gehou is.

Die twee bane was weer volgepak, ondanks versengende hitt e wat die deelnemers kort-kort na skadukolle laat soek het.

Dit was die dertiende lietsjietoernooi vir Tzaneen en volgens die voorsitt er van die Tzaneen Rolbalklub, mnr Peet Jordaan, groei

die gewildheid van die toernooi steeds. ‘n Maksimum van 28 spanne is ingeskryf, ter-wyl nog ses spanne op die waglys tevrede moes wees. Die deelnemers was van oor byna

die hele Limpopo, asook Gauteng, Mpuma-langa en Noordwes. Byna die helft e was van ander provinsies.

Jordaan sê net een span van Tzaneen is toe-gelaat, om voorsiening te maak vir die be-soekers. Minstens tien borge het die toernooi moontlik gemaak.

Die Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub het die eerste twee plekke ingeneem en ook ‘n tweede plek vir hul kleredrag losgeslaan.

en Duiwelskloof brul almal stil!

Een van Duiwelskloof se spanne was die naasbeste geklee en die span het ook die tweede plek in die toernooi behaal. Hulle is Johan Benade,

Zane Fanie, Amelia Benade en Damian Stefaans.

Vanjaar se wenners van die Lietsjietoernooi was Duiwelskloof Rolbalklub se Doug Reed, Francois Hanekom, Sue Morrison en Alister Morrison. Regs is Rolene Engelbrecht, waarnemende sekretaris van Tzaneen Rolbalklub.

SLC just too goodLast Friday Stanford Lake College played cricket against Northern Academy (NA) in Polokwane and enjoyed a good win that didn’t come easy though.

Stanford won the toss and elected to bat fi rst. They got off to a good start, with Conrad Schmidt making 27 and Matt hew Maritz 45. Declan Taggart also scored a valuable 46 in the middle of the innings. They ended with a reasonable score of 168 off twenty overs.

NA pushed Stanford right to the end and scored 141 in reply. They were in touch with the run rate all the way to the last few overs.

Jason Wright bowled a match winning spell, taking two wickets in his four overs and only conceding a meagre twelve runs.
