INadramatic announcement lastweekthe Department of Environmental Af-fairs and Internal Safety revealed that

the famousBlinkwatermountain inSevenOaks had historically been classified as asleeping volcano.

But the spokesman said as a matter ofurgency, underground disruptions hadpushedthevolcanotothepointoferuptingand that lava and ashwould soon be rain-ing down its slopes.

Spokesman for the department, DrZ.X.Y. Van der Brawn, told a GreytownGazette reporter that five years ago analertmemberof thedepartmenthadbeenhiking on Blinkwater when he becameawareofsuspicioussigns indicativeofvol-canic properties.

Dr Van der Brawn said he immediatelyappointed a task team to investigate. Adedicated and committed team of menandwomen had camped out on the slopesof the Blinkwater for the past year to as-sess the situation. It had been exception-ally hard work and the team should, inhis view, be awarded the highest honoursin South Africa for their dedication, com-

mitment and sheer hard labour throughcoping with extremes of weather, harshliving conditions and the constant fearthat there could be a premature eruption.

In response to a query he said the teamhad been paid overtime and dangermon-ey. Dr van der Brawn said however, re-ports that a restaurant in Greytown haddelivered threemeals aday to thesebraveheroes and heroines was incorrect – onlytwo a day had been ordered.

The group’s detailed research and themany samples taken of rock formationand frozen lava collected under the mostdireconditionshadledthemtotheconclu-sion that Blinkwater was actually avolcano.

Although ithadbeenbenignandrestingfor hundreds of year Dr van der Brawnseniorsaidheestimated itwas justaques-tion of days before themountain erupted.In fact, Dr Van der Brawn said he was soconvinced at the scientific accuracy of theresearchcarriedout thathewaspreparedto state publicly to national and interna-tional media that the due date of eruptionwas in fact today - 1 April.

Blinkwater ‘volcano’ to erupt?

WHO cares if Umvoti runs out ofwater in the near future. Certainlynot its water service providers,Umzinyathi District Municipality,which does not respond or commenton photos such as this one.

The officials in Umzinyathi andUmvoti are showing blatant disre-gard of the potential disaster facingUmvoti and its residents.

In assessing the situation twomonths ago a spokesman for theDe-partment of Water estimated thatLakeMerthley could run dry by July... and there has been no improve-ment in the level of the lake sincethen.

Last Friday morning the Grey-town Gazette received numerous

phone calls and photos of the hun-dredsof litresofwater spewing forthfrom this fire hydrant in Louis BothaAvenue. There was a burst pipewhichUmzinyathiworkerswere fix-ing, but as they allegedly could notfind the valve to switch off the waterturnedonthe firehydrant toease thepressure on the water flow.

The Greytown Gazette requestedcomment from Umzinyathi, the De-partment of Water and other roleplayers ... but to no avail.

Soplease, even though there is to-tal silence on the part of the officials,consumers are urged to continuetheir impressive efforts to savewater, to stop wastage and reportleaks (and burst pipes) immediately.

hearing theEaster story fromtheBible, thecolouring-in of Easter eggs and the crea-tion of beautiful baskets in which to place

our treats from the Easter Bunny.A big thank you to the Chetty family for

helping the Easter Bunny bring our Eastereggs and other sweets.

Wewish our parents and friends a bless-ed and safe holiday.

"Music is the electrical soil inwhich the spirit lives, thinks andinvents." - Ludwig van Beetho-ven.

IN the New Hanover Prepclassroomsmusic is oftenused tocreate a “soundtrack” for alearning activity.

The soundtrack increases in-terest and activates the informa-tion mentally, physically oremotionally.Music is alsoused tocreatea focused learning state inwhich vocabulary and reading

material is absorbed at a greatrate. When information is put torhythm and rhyme, these musi-calelementsprovidea“hook” forrecall.

To showcase information en-hanced by using this teaching, amusical theatre supper -“Oceans of Fun” - was hosted bythe Grade 3 pupils who dressedup as different ocean creatures.The children shared their learn-ing experiences about the themewith family and friends.

TO get the most juice out of lemons,limes and oranges, roll them aroundfirmly on a counter until they are

warm and softer.• Some egg shells stick to the egg when

you boil them. Add salt to the water then,when ready, take themout and immediate-ly rinse in cold water. The shells will popoff easily.

• If you wrap celery in tin foil and keepin the fridge, it will last for weeks.

• Health tip -when cutting awatermelonor spanspek, scrub the skin surface thor-oughly because any bacteria and dirt willattach itself to the knife and transfer to thefruit pulp. You should do this with pump-kins too, although it is not so serious be-cause you are at least cooking the flesh.

• Having a party - use frozen seedlessgrapes for your cocktails instead of ice.They don'tmelt as fast as ice,whichdilutesthe drink. - All4women.

OVERtheyearsAprilFool’sDaystuntshaveshown a great deal of imagination and cre-ativity. Still regarded as one of the classicswas the 1957 story broadcast by BBC. Awell-known broadcaster, Richard Dimble-by featured a family in Switzerland har-vesting their annual spaghetti crop.

It said that thanks to years of experi-ments and hard work each strand of spa-ghetti grew to the same length and thatfrost could adversely affect the flavour.

A lot of viewers were so intrigued thattheywanted toknowwhere theycouldpur-chase their own spaghetti bushes

TheDailyMail in 2000 revealed that Es-portaHealthClubshad launchedanewlineof socks, FatSox, designed to help peoplelose weight. These revolutionary socks ac-tually sucked body fat out of sweating feet,promising to “banish fat forever”. As aper-son’sbodyheat roseand theirbloodvesselsdilated, the socks drew “excess lipid fromthe body through the sweat”. After sweat-ing out the fat, the wearer could then sim-ply wash the socks, and the fat, away.

Virgin Cola, in 1999, advertised that inthe interest of consumer safety it had inte-grated a new technology into its cans.When the cola passed its sell-by date, theliquid reacted with the metal in the can,turning the can bright blue. Virgin warnedthat consumers should therefore avoidpurchasing all blue cans.

In 1995 spoofing the increasingly com-plex regulations mandated by theEuropean Economic Community, PoloMints (mint with a hole) advertised “in ac-cordancewithEECCouncilRegulation (EC)

631/95” theywouldno longerbeproducingmints with holes.

To satisfy the regulation, all the existingstock of Polomintswouldbe supplementedwitha“Euroconversionkit” containing20,7mm“hole fillers” tobeplaced in eachPolomint.A “detailed instruction leaflet”wouldalso be included.

The Swiss Tourism Board in 2009 re-leased a video that revealed the secret ofwhy their mountains look so clean. It wasdue to the hard work of the Association ofSwissMountain Cleaners,whosemembersdaily scaled the Alps, scrubbing the rocksof unsightly bird droppings. Millionswatched the video, and 30 000 took the on-line test to determine whether they hadwhat it took to becomeamountain cleaner.

The Orlando Sentinel in 1984 featuredastoryon theTasmanianMockWalrus thatmany people in Florida were said to beadopting as a pet. The creature was fourinches long, resembled a walrus, purredlike a cat, and had the temperament of ahamster. What made it such an ideal petwas that it never had to be bathed, useda litter box, and ate cockroaches. Dozensof people called the paper trying to find outwhere they could obtain their own TMW.

Much of the April 1, 1981 issue of TheGuardian was given over to discussion ofan exciting scientific breakthrough. Scien-tists at Britain’s research labs had devel-oped a machine to control the weatherwithin a 5000-kilometre radius. This wasgood news for the British, who were to beguaranteed long summers with rainfallonly at night.

GAZETTESMALLSSomething for everyone

SAFETY is a top priority on theroads, but the high number of roadaccidents remain a challenge.These accidents can often be pre-vented as more than 90% occurwhen traffic regulations are violat-ed. The Recycling and EconomicDevelopment Initiative of South Af-rica (REDISA) encourages SouthAfricans to change their behaviourand create safer roads.

Stacey Davidson, REDISA direct-or, says habits that motorists canadopt include checking tyres regu-larly for punctures, cuts and bulges

to ensure theyare ingoodconditionfor the road.

Research by the CSIR show thatnearly 20% of accidents have tyrefailure as a contributing factor. Itdoes not help if you have the bestbrakes on themarket, but your tyr-es areworn.Whenbraking the ideais to have sufficient friction be-tween the road surface and tyre tobring the vehicle to a standstill. Iftyres are worn there will not beenough friction and the tyre willslide over the road surface, notstopping the vehicle.

Well-maintained tyres will holdyour vehicle securely on the road,allowing it to stop, start and ma-noeuvre safely.

For your own safety and that ofothers, your tyres must be in goodcondition,properlymaintainedandappropriate for your vehicle.

REDISA tyre tips on how to staysafe on the roads:

• Check tyre pressure on a coldstartorbeforea long journey.You’llfind the correct pressure for yourvehicle in your operating manual.In most cases it’s either under yourfuel cap, on the inside of your dooror in the cubbyhole. Then checkyour tyre pressure on a cold startor before a long journey.

• If the side wall of your tyre isdamaged, replace it.

Check regularly for any signs ofirregular wear, any sharp objectslodged in the tread and any cuts,tears, cracks or bulges. Check fordamage or uneven wear on all fourtyres, on both sides of the tyre andon the wheel rims.

• Underinflated tyres use morefuel, so check the pressure.

You’ll need an accurate pressuregauge. Take off the dust cap on thevalve, fixon thepressuregaugeandmake a note of the result. If yourtyre needs extra air, you should in-flate it using an air pump at home.If the tyre is overinflated accordingto thepressure chart, you canallowair to escape while the dust cap isoff.

• Check that your tyre pressureis correct and equal. Never rely onthe eyeball method to gauge airpressure in tyres.

Next to the vehicle’s brakes, thetyres are themost important safetyparts of your car. If there is an im-balance in the tyre pressure therecould be a risk when braking andnegotiating corners. In addition toputtingyou inanaccidentrisk,poortyre pressure can also affect fueleconomy, comfort and the life of thetyre.
