DESPITE the constant criti-cism of the ruling ANC, the for-mer liberation movementturned political party walkedaway with yet another decisivewin last week during the na-tional elections.
Victory inhand, theANChasstill said there is much work tobe done.
The ruling party may havesecured another massive win,but according to the polls, thereis a decline in support for theparty.
In the 2009 national elec-tions the ANC walked awaywith the support of almost 66%of the voting population.
However, this year, theydropped to 62.15%.
Ward 61 councillor MichaelAbraham said the ANC hadpredicted its results addingthatthe party felt it was still well incontrol.
Abraham said it was impor-tant for the party to have wonKwaZulu-Natal in the way thatthey did.
“Facts have now shown allour detractors and naysayersthatweare still oneof thegreat-est organisations on the conti-nent and that our people stillbelieve this.
“We aimed for a 70%victoryin KZN and managed 64.5%which is still a massive victoryfor any political party.
“As for the opposition, theyhave been sufficiently decimat-ed and we knew it.
“Nationally we expected ourcurrent results and are notphased at all.
“There is a very clear mes-sage from South Africans. Thatmessage is that they want theANC toruleandwewillcontinueto do so.”
Abraham may have hiswork cut-outforhimthough,af-
ter the DA in Tongaat wonmostof the local voting districts by along way.
Responding to this, Abra-ham said: “It does not matterbecause these are nationalelections.Thelocalgovernmentelections are a different story.”
Nationally, the DA per-formedwell with a 22.23% vot-ing victory, giving them overfour millionvotes countrywide.
This is almost a millionmore votes from the previouselections,which sawtheofficialopposition take home a 16.7%voting support.
Commenting on the nation-al improvements and his owndecisive local victory, DA coun-cillor Brian Jayanathan said itwas clear that people wantmore.
“Our success has been builtaround our ongoing assistanceand seeing to the needs of thecommunity, helping everyonewho needed our help, beingpresentanumberof times in in-formal areas, being a party ofservice delivery and not aboutvotes.
“Votes are personal andmust come from within thehearts and minds of the voters.
“Unfortunately some votersare blinded; just a T-shirt, aplate of breyani and a promiseof a home or a job and they selltheir soul.”
Oneof thebiggest losersdur-ing this years elections wasCOPE, who dropped from thirdplace in 2009 with 7% of votersupport to less than one per-cent this year.
Political analysts have saidthe leadership infighting andthe emergence of the Econom-ic Freedom Fighters (EFF)could have been the main fac-tors influencing the decline.
EFFmanaged over amillionvotes, earning themselves aclean road to parliament.
Ruling party still on top

“There is a serious need for this atour school and it is wonderful to seethe Soul Buddyz team take on thischallenge.We are looking to give ourpupils all kinds of opportunities andalsohavethemunderstandthat thereismore thanacademics.Wesee this.”
ChildWelfareseniorsocialworkerJo Moodley commended the schoolon the launch of the room and said itwasoneof thefirstschools inTongaatto undertake the initiative.
“Inmy line of work we find pupilsare especially lacking that extra carethatisneeded.Sometimesweallneedto open up and this room providesthat platform.Notmanyof ourpublicschools are this well equipped. Theschoolmanagementandstaffmustbecommended.”
Moodley said pupils needed to beguided from an early age.
“Once they pass this phase ofschool it becomes difficult to engagethese individuals.”

Is computer use giving you real headaches?You’re not alone – many office workers experience headaches triggered by frequent andextended use of their PCs.
The following tips can help you to bringcomputertriggered headaches under control. They have been provided by Dr ElliotShevel, Chairman of the South African Headache Society.
1. Centre your monitor Position yourmonitor directly in front of you. If your monitor is offcentre, you may experience neckand shoulder pains since you will need totwist your body to see the screen or sit in anawkward position.
2. Keep your monitor at arm’s length Your monitor should be about arm's lengthaway when you're sitting back in your chair.Sitting too close or too far from the screencan strain your eyes. If you have a large moni
tor you should sit slightly further back.3. Keep your eyes level to the top of your
screen Position the top of your screen sothat it is level with your eyes, either by lowering your monitor or raising your chair.
A low screen will make you tilt your headforward to view the monitor, which is a common cause of neck pain. If the monitor is toohigh, you may have to tilt your head back,which can cause neck and shoulder pain andincrease your exposure to glare from overhead lights (a common cause of headaches).
4. Tilt your monitor slightly upwardTilt the screen so that the base is slightly
closer to you than the top so that you canview the entire screen and the display moreclearly. Tilting the monitor downward isn'trecommended unless this is necessary to reduce the glare from overhead lights or unlessyour monitor is too high. Source: HEALTH24

EXFOLIATION involves the removal of deadskin cells in order to maintain a healthy skin.But, before we get ahead of ourselves andoverdo exfoliation, we need to strike it rightwith this process, say experts.Too often people take a vigorous approachwhen it comes to exfoliation."When it comes to exfoliation, too much ofa good thing may do more harm than good,"say skin care professionals at Environ.One needs to be cautious when trying to removedeadskincellsbecauseifyouscrubtoohard you may be stripping more than whatneeds to go.Your skin needs its many layers, that’s whyit was designed the way it was. These layersprotect us from bacteria, the sun and environment as well as daily pollution.
"Overzealous exfoliation can lead tocomplex problems, especially in very sunny
or very cold climates, and these problemsare expensive and time consuming to correct," Environ warns.Gently does itWhat your skin doesn’t need is a pile of oldskin cells on the surface, and this is why gentle exfoliation is important.
By taking a gentle exfoliation approach, youremove only redundant cells that have
served their purpose.Skin that dull the surface of the skin, buildup and cause spots or soak up valuable ingredients from hitech products can also beremoved by exfoliating gently.The process of exfoliation should be so gentle that you shouldn't even know it's takingplace. You shouldn't be doing it, your skincare products should. And, what better waythan to have a soft exfoliant formulated into the products you use on your face daily?Exfoliants that contain granules leave a lotto chance. The beads have to be perfectlyshaped so that they don’t scratch your skinand they have to be used very carefully andas directed otherwise your skin could become sensitised.Ideally your "skin care products should contain advanced ingredients that gently remove dead skin cells every day without youeven knowing it.This mean’s that your skin’s protective ability is never compromised and all your advanced products work the way they should;saving you money and saving your skin.Source: HEALTH24
Exfoliation:lose the scrub!

SURAKSHA RAMANDHNLP Life Coaching
I want to introduce you to a helpfultechnique that can bring about posi-tive changes,whetheryouarehavingdifficultywith your child, a partner, afriend or a work colleague; positivereinforcement works – with every-one!
Thegoal of positive reinforcementistoincreasebehaviourthatwewant,
and reduce the behaviour that we donot want. Positive reinforcement is apsychological theory, falling underthe umbrella of behavioural therapy.
1) Do and Don’tIf I told you: “Do not think of a big,
black, hairy spider!”What image came up in your
mind? A vision of a big, hairy spider,right?
This is because our brains do notregisternegatives.Sobytellingsome-one, don’t do something, it brings upan image in theirminds of the behav-iour you have mentioned, “Don’tshout,” or “Don’t run.” Their mindsare going to be consumed with the
words“shout”and“run.”“Don’trun,”tells your child that running is unac-ceptable, but does not teach themwhat to replace the unacceptable be-haviour with.
When asking for a specific actionfromaperson,youneed tocommuni-cate with themwhat it is that you ex-pect, and not what you don’t want.
So what you want to do is clearlystate what it is that you expect fromthem,usingtheirname,toinitiallygettheir attention.
“Amy, it seems like you have a lotof energy right now, you should gooutside and play in the garden, orcome help me in the kitchen and we
could...”You could also ask themwhat it is
thattheywouldenjoydoinginthemo-ment and discuss their options withthem. Thisway, you are getting themtobeginthinking,forthemselves,thatthere are always alternatives andthey can do something productivewith the energy they have, and that itisnotabadthingtobeexcitedanden-ergetic. Whatever their reply, praisethem for thinking of it, and if it is notpossibleforthemtodowhattheyhavementioned, explain logically to themwhy it isn’t possible, and ask them tothink of something else that is moreappropriate for the moment.
The Life Line:Positivereinforcement
DESIREE ERASMUS
I AMnot an academic, but evenwith this benefit I have readenough to know that the future
of literature is bleak.In fact, when pondering the
prospects of the written word, Iimmediately want to gnawthrough my ankle in an effort tobleed-out slowly.
Should this ever happen, I canonly pray that some Samaritan-typewill not throwoneof theHun-ger Games or Twilight novels myway as a source of comfort in mydying hours.
I will use the paperback to beatmyself intoacomaafterassaultingthe Samaritan.
The Hunger Games and Twi-light sagasare just twoofmany re-cent bestselling series that are re-garded as literary manna when itcomes to milking teen and 20-somethingangst and skyrocketingsales for publishing houses.
Let me see if I am able to sum-marise the intricate, unique plotsfor readers ofthiscolumn:Twilightdealswith forbidden love betweenasparkly, centuries’oldmalevam-pire and a 17-year-old human fe-male and all of the emotionalquandaries that would entail.
TheHungerGamesdealswithateen that has to fight her waythrough a dystopian post-apoca-lyptic world and alloftheemotion-
al quandaries that would entail. Itwas tough, but I think that aboutcaptures all of the subtle nuancesand complexities of each.
Both series have ‘taken theworld by storm’ and have seensuch success that they have beenmade into hitmovies by that otherbeacon of hope when it comes toquality production – Hollywood.
For reasons knownonly to per-petual crack users, Twilight hasbeen compared to the novels ofJane Austen. Perpetual tic usershave rated the series as ‘one of thebest reads ever’.
The Hunger Games has re-ceived even more favourable re-views, even though someone likehorror-writer Stephen King hasgiven the series a ‘B’ because it’spredictable and adults would beabletopickuponthewritingflaws.Pot, kettle, black?
WhatFyodorDostoevskywouldhave thoughtof this isopen for de-bate, although I am guessing poi-son intravenously administeredover a decade or so would be hiswish.
As for comparing the writinginTwilight to Austen; JaneAustenwasan inimitablewriter.Herskillswereandareadmired internation-ally by academics and plebs likeyours truly.Andhercharactersac-tually had...well, character. Let us
compare this toTwilight. Considerthis inspired quote from heroineBellaSwan,talkingabouttheuber-pale, uber-intense, uber-limp-let-tuce-leaf personality of vampireEdward: “I wasn’t interesting.Andhewas.Interesting…andbril-liant… and mysterious…and per-fect…andbeautiful…andpossiblyable to lift full-sized vans with onehand.”
As for theHungerGames, so vi-olent is it thatparentshave lobbiedbecause they deem it age inappro-priate for theyoung teenmarket. Ithas been compared to a graphicnovelmade forHollywood, and nodoubt the publisher had this inmind when agonising over howmuch carnage would increasesales. Why Twilight and The Hun-ger Games have ‘swept the world’
isnotmuchofamystery,giventheirmarketability and sales potential.
If, however, young bibliophilesareopentobeingchallengedby lit-erature that has more depth thana petri-dish, we should encouragethem to read the classics. It maysurprisemany to find that lust, in-trigue, passion, obsessive love,murder, war and tragedy can bewritten with conviction, beautyandwhatwegenerally find lackingin thebestsellers of today - insight.

Kuthiwa iqiniso liyaphilisa. Abap-hikisana nalo, abehlukene nomuntuozama ukumisa amagagasi olwandle.Nanxa kungelula ukuvumelana no-Mengameli we-ANC, uMnuz JacobGedleyihlekisa Zuma, uMsholozi, umaethi i-ANC iyobusa iNingizimu AfrikakuzekubuyeiNkosiuJesuKristungobaakekho owaziyo ukuthi iyobuya nini,cishe kungabi lukhuni ukumkholwauma ethi isazoqhubeka nokubusa lelikuzekupheleiminyakaeyi-100kusukamanje.
Lokhu ngeke kwenziwe ukuthi i-ANC ingcono kunamanye amaqembuezombusazwe. Iqiniso ukuthi iyiqem-bu lezepolitikinjengamanye.Akuthinafuthi esizosho ukuthi yiliphi iqembulezepolitiki elingcono kunelinye.Kepha abantu abazosho ukuthi yiliphiiqembu elingcono kunamanye, na-bafuna ukuholwa yilona, ngabavotiuqobo lwabo.
Abavoti bazolekelelwa ngamaqem-bu aphikisayo ngokuthi esikhundlenisokutshela abavoti ukuthi azobenzela-niukuthuthukisa izimpilozabo,alibaleukuchitha isikhathi ngokugxeka iqem-bu elibusayo.
Insizwa eyisoka uma ishela intom-bi, ayifiki entombini ichithe sonkeisikhathi sayo ikhuluma kabi ngem-bangi ngoba imane izibangele isidina
entombini.Kuvamile-ke ukuthi intombi igcine
iqome imbangi. Sengathi amaqembuaphikisayo uma efuna ukuphumelelaokhethweni eminyakeni eyi-100 eza-yo, angayeka ukuchitha isikhathingokunaka amaphutha eqembu eli-busayo kodwa enze okungcono.Kambeukhonayiniumuntuongenawoamaphutha?Siyalibongela iqembueli-dle umhlanganiso.
I-ANC idla umhlanganiso nje,ngeSontoelizayoumhlaka-25kuNhla-ba (May) lapha eThekwini kuzobanomcimbi omkhulu wokwethula i-Af-rica Day. I-Africa Day, ngokusho ku-kaMnuz Eugene Jackson ongusomab-hizinisi eThekwini eyokukhuthazabonke abantu base-Afrika ukuthibazigqaje ngobu-Afrika babo.

Lokhu kuzosiza eku-qedeni umkhuba wokucwasa abokufi-kakuleli kodwabebebengama-Afrika.
Kuzokhumbuleka ukuthi le-ANCelokhuiwinenjalookhethwenikusuke-la ngo-1994, ibihlala emazweni eh-lukene ase-Afrika ngesikhathi isekud-ingisweni. Ngakhoke akwemukelekifuthi kuba buhlungu ngandlelathileuma abokuhamba sebecwaswa kuleli.Yingakho sithi lesi sinyathelo sikaM-nuz Jackson nozakwabo ekomidini le-Durban African Communities, sidingaukushayelwa ihlombe.
Nge-Africa Day kuzogqugquzelwa

This createdmany clear chances formuchofthegameandtheyoutplayedBuffelsdaleGi-ants in every way despite the Giants being amoreexperienced teamwhoplay inbothout-door and Futsal fixtures in the SAFA Tongaatleague.
Even in the second stanza Belgate contin-ued from where they left off.Theycontinuedpressurising theGiantsand
in the first 10 minutes they scored twomoregoals.
However, in the 13th minute of the game aBelgate playerwas fouled by a Giants player.Strangely, the free kickwas awarded to Gi-
ants.The Belgate player challenged the referee
and as a result the player was red carded.This changed the image of the game.At this stage Belgate was reduced to four
players and Buffelsdale Giants took advan-tage and managed to score a few goals to re-duce the deficit.
In the last few minutes Giants slotted thetwo decisive that levelled scores and at thisstage Giants came from behind to steal thegame.
