AFTERmore than two years,judgment has finally beenpassed in the trial involving

Nyawose was travelling along

Barnard’sconclusion,basedontheevidencesubmittedbythestateandthedefence,wasthatNyawosecould have avoided the crash.

Stander'smotherMandieweptas judgmentwas passed.Her hus-bandCharlesandfamilymemberswere also in court.

WitnessestestifiedthatNyawo-se overtook several vehicles onhis

way fromPort Shepstone to ShellyBeach prior to the accident.

Barnard said that a reasonableperson would not overtake vehi-cles on the oncoming lane espe-cially when traffic was heavy.

"A reasonable person wouldtakemore care in these conditionsand be more cautious. The courttherefore finds the accused drovenegligently, causing a collision,and that he failed to obey a roadsign and overtook over a solidline," added Barnard.

THEownerofa lodge inRamsgate,Harcourt Street, says she lives infearbecauseofovergrownbushonanemptypropertynextdoor toherlodge.

Verona Baldi of Positano Lodgesays vagrants and criminals havebeen using this bush as a hideout,waiting to pounce on the innocentand rob them.

“I have owned the lodge for 19years. The crime only startedabout 10 years ago when theproperty next door becamevacant,” she said.

Baldi has contacted the Hibis-cus Coast Municipality (HCM) sev-eral times over the years but wasrendered no assistance by them.

“I can’t leave any itemsoutside.Not even a hose pipe. It’s gone be-fore you know it,” she said.

Baldi said her guests have alsobeenrobbedatknifepointover theyears andmany question why she

always keeps her doors locked.“It’s not the norm for a lodge. A

lodgeissupposedtobewelcoming.A few years ago she said, two

studentswererobbedon thestreetand their lodge room key was

taken.Two days later the room was

broken into and their belongingsstolen.

“The key holder had the nameof the lodge and the roomnumber,but I have since changed that sys-tem,” she said.

Baldi asked HCM to contact theowner of the vacant property andget him to clear it or for them toclear it and send him the bill.

“Nothing has been done. It’s al-so an eyesore. There are beautifulhouses on this street.”

HCMwas approached for com-mentbutnonewasmadeavailableto the Fever at the time of going topress.

The Fever made attempts tocontact the owner of the vacantstand telephonically, but in vain.

KZN Fashion Councilassists designers>> Designers advisedto start a ‘cut, makeand trim’ hubPRECIOUS GUMEDE>>[email protected]

FORthefirsttimeintheUguDis-trict, the KwaZulu-NatalFashionCouncil (KZNFC)held

a forum to share information withfashion designers at the Port Shep-stone Civic Centre on Monday.

Sincengile Ntshingile, KZNFCmanaging director, sat with 12 as-piringandestablisheddesignersex-plaining what KZNFC is about andwhat it can do for them.

She said they started a drive tovisit designers from rural districtslike Ugu sharing information onhow they can develop careers asfashion designers.

“KZNFC started a drive to informdesigners about programmes thatareavailable to themandtoget feed-backabout the challengesdesignersare faced with,” said Ntshingila.

Ntshingilaexplainedthe fourcat-agories and programmes they caterfor.

“We have four catagories of de-signers -aspiringdesignerswhoarein design school or colleges whomwe provide information with aboutaccredited schools, provide bursa-ries and assist in finding them in-ternships in the industries, juniordesigners with a qualification butwho need practical training andemerging qualified designers, but

who have no business training.She said the council runs a three-

month course where they acquireretail training, pattern drafting,business skills, labour laws andfashion laws.

The last category is for estab-lished designers.

Ntshingila explained the differ-ent platforms the designers can en-gage and participate in with the as-sistance of KZNFC.

Ntshingila said she feels fashionshows have been abused and havebecome entertainment or money-making schemes for event organis-ers.

“Fashion shows should havefashion buyers, an audience, mediaand marketers, not just family andfriends screaming for your line.”

Ntshingila advised the designers

to check the levels of fashion showsthey choose to participate in.

She said the aim is to see fashiondeigners progress to internationallevel.

Fashion designers from the dis-trict raised some of the challengesthey are faced with at district level.

Hope Maxwell said material andbeads are expensive, there are nofacilities or machinery available forthem, theydonothaveastructure torepresentthemandthatonlyTVET’soffer fashion design.

Ntshingila advised the designersto form a “cut, make and trim” hubfor local fashion talents and assisteach other to develop other skills.

Sheinviteddesignersto“like”theKZNFC facebook page to keep intouch and be informed about theprogrammes available for them.

Community tomarch forhousesCANDYCE KRISHNA>>[email protected]

INFURIATED Merlewood residents, whohave been waiting 21 years for houses allo-catedto them by Hibiscus CoastMunicipal-ity, have set a date for a public demonstra-tion.

Community members were given lotnumbers in 1994, following approval in theMerlewood Mixed Income Housing Project.

Ronel Schalkwyk, who spoke to the Fe-ver on behalf of residents, said a meetingwasheldonSaturdaywherearrangementsfor the march were discussed.

“We haven’t received feedback fromthe mayor. It seems as though nobody isinterested in helping us,” she said.

“We have waited over two decades andcan wait no longer.”

In March residents protested outsidethe incomplete houses with the aim ofmoving into them.

Most community members, who havebeen approved for the houses, live in squal-or, with no basic commodities such as elec-tricity and water.

However, they were stopped whenward councillor Ajith Rajaram, addressedthe angry community

One resident said she was living in ashack in Mkholombe while she waited forher house.

The community said they were also an-gry at the fact that other housing projectsin Louisiana and Masinenge were complet-ed within two years.

The march takes place on Tuesday, 28April from the Shoprite parking lot to themunicipal offices.

“Ithascometoourattention thatsixdays notice of the public participationmeetingwithregards to thebudgethasbeen given,” said Fourie.

Ugu mayor takes 2015/16draft budget to the peopleTHE Ugu District Municipality’s R1 bil-lion-plus draft budget for the2015/2016 financial year that promisesmassive upgrades of the organisation’score functions of water and sanitationservices has been well received by com-munities.

Ugu District Municipality, in part-nership with its family of local munici-palities, is engaged in a series of the In-tegrated Development Plan (IDP) andbudget road shows where the munici-pal leadership is engaging communi-ties to seek their input on the servicedelivery draft budget.

The new financial year’s budgetcaters for the advancement of the dis-trict’s water and sanitations servicesand infrastructure with an increasedcapital budget of R392 473 920 and anoperational budget of R790 658 097for the improvement of water and sani-tation services, tourism, relief for thepoor and special programmes.

An amount of R189 800 000 of thisbudget will address water service back-logs while R53 269 420 of the budgetwill be used for sanitation services. Themunicipality has budgeted R6 246 580for the completion of the installationof Ventilated Pit Latrines (VIP toilets)in the rural communities.

For the urban customers’ the mu-nicipality has proposed a seven percentwater and sanitation services tariff in-crease for the 2015/16 financial year.

In the critical areas of service deliv-ery, a bulk of the budget has been set

aside in a form of a municipal infra-structure grant (MIG) of R249 316 000.

An amount of R303 885 000 fromequitable shares will ensure the contin-uation of free basic water provision viacommunal standpipes and drought re-lief, among other things.

An allocation of R69 438 080 hasbeen made for water tariff subsidisa-tion.

During her presentation of thebudget the district mayor, Cllr Ntombi-fikile Gumede said this public partici-pation process is key towards the en-dorsement of the budget and that it ispivotal that communities are given theopportunity of sharing their perspec-tiveongovernment’spracticestowardsthe improved utilisation of the servicedelivery budget.

We have engaged with numerouscommunities thus far and we havebeen positively advised on the budgetand the communities’ views and sug-gestions will be taken into considera-tion.

Following the conclusion of the IDPand Budget Road Shows 2015/2016,Gumede will present the final budgetwith the communities’ valuable inputsto council for adoption in May for thenew financial year commencing on 1 Ju-ly 2015.

Ugu District Municipality promotesworking together to create an environ-ment that is friendly, responsive, ac-countable, effective and efficient forlocal communities.

South Coast isrevving upTHIS weekend the South Coast

and inland will be cacophony ofsound by virtue of thousands of

bikersattendingthe2015versionofAf-rica Bike Week which is probably thesinglemost important event forourar-ea.

Wewelcomeall visitors to this pres-tigiousshowcasetowhichweareapartfunder along with the Hibiscus Coastand Ugu District Municipalities.

Bike Week is great for our tourismeconomyalbeit only lastinga fewdays.Down here there is another motorsport-related initiative that tomymindalso has future significance for our lei-sure and tourism industry.

The upgrade and formal introduc-tion of Dezzies Raceway to the South

Africanracingcalendar isahugeboostfor motor sport in our province.

Centuries ago when I was a boy, Ithrilled at watching Graham Hill andJim Clarke do battle at the then West-mead circuit in Pinetown, and whenmyolder brother racedFormula Ford,wewouldjointhousandsofenthusiastsat theRoyHesketh circuit in Pieterma-ritzburg to watch the famous DickyDale Trophy for motor bikes, the for-mulaonechampionship seriesand thethree-hour endurance races.

Then for decades motor racing inKZN went dead. Now and with fore-sight, our own Desmond Gutziet hasputhishandup(andhisresources)andblessed us with South Africa’s newestracing venue at Oslo Beach.

We understand that this year some25 events are scheduled for this circuitwhichisgoodnewsforourdestination.Race entrants, their teams and familywill join armies of media and specta-torsonracedaysandwith themcomesthespendonhospitality, consumables,accommodation, retail and leisurepreferences.

Ibelieveweshouldsupport thisnewentrant to our tourism and leisure of-fering by encouraging more people tosupport events at the raceway. I havenodoubt that ifwedo, racepromoters,sponsors and the motor industry willrealise that we have a gem of a facilityand assist towards its success.

The petrol-head market is huge.Just think of the Indianapolis 500, theIsleofManTT,LeMansandtheMonacoGrand Prix and one realises that tour-ism is the ultimate winner in terms ofmonetary injection into a local econo-my.

Dezzies Raceway gets our che-quered flag and with it goes our con-gratulationsandbestwishes for futuresuccess to the Gutzeit family.

SURELY the public protector, Thuli Madonsela, must focus on moreimportant problems of crime and corruption rather than to strollaround viewing nudists (“Public protector may be asked to addressnudist beach issue” - 10 April).

On 20 March the South Coast Fever reported that Pastor Tony

Ndovelafrom Port Shepstone was prosecuted for 14 counts of fraud.One of my employees informed me that a pastor, a resident in

Port Shepstone, had impregnated his three daughters.What right has the Reverend Mike Effanga (chairman of the Con-

cerned Citizens of the Hibiscus Municipality) to confront nudists on

Can’t see beyondown selfishnessTHE arguments the proponents of monkey cullinghave so many contradictions and such contorted ar-guments, including references to old lawn mowers,respiratory disease and Genesis, and now in the lat-est spat, slavery, Guy Fawkes, blood donations, mal-nutrition and guttering, that I wonder where to beginand end.

To cut the nonsense short, I will deal only withthe issue of slavery raised by El Lobo who argues thatbecause concern for animals existed during the peri-od in which slavery was practised, the evidence isthat animals were considered “more important”than humans.

If El Lobo had any understanding of history andreasoning, it would be clear that the people whofought against the abuse of animals also foughtagainst slavery, for the obvious reason that thesepeople were empathetic and compassionate.

The point that El Lobo tries to use to support hispathetic argument actually proves the converse. Thecruxofthiswholeargumentisempathy,compassion,a respect for others’ welfare. It is not the mind of Sus-anHendersonthatis inacage,butthemindsofSchu-lenburg, El Lobo and their ilk who cannot see beyondtheir own selfishness. This is precisely the empathet-ic deficiency that allowed and continues to condoneslavery. Henderson is way ahead of her time. Themonkey culling mentality is way behind.

Old law, new law or no law?IN his letter in last week’s Fever titled

“Setting nudist record straight”, thecommunity could have been fooled by

HCM Speaker Ronnie Nair, except that hisspurious attempts to evade responsibilityand distract public attention did not work.

Notice how he cleverly omits the nameof the third person he spoke to that day.It was the direction of Nair that gave thegreen light to the resumption of public nu-dity on Mpenjati beach on 3 April. This iswhat happens when politics attempts tocook existing law.

Nair would therefore alleviate furtherconfusion by addressing himself to theHCM community at large on the following

thorny facts:• The opposition to a nudist beach by

majority of the local residents of the HCMhave been fundamentally ignored and dis-carded by the municipality. This reveals thesacrifice of individual conscience, publicmorality and democratic principles.

• How a resolution that contravenes ex-isting national laws and municipal by-lawsgets approval at the HCM council with sub-sequent strategy to chisel the law later, tosuit the premature provisional approval.

• Municipal by-laws, violated by nakedbodies in full public view, at a public beachon the Easter weekend.

• Nair cannot specify which faith-based

organisation will have their cordial rela-tionship with the municipality strength-ened or improved by the approval of publicnudity at Mpenjati beach.

• Chief Nzimakwe clearly stated in ourpresence that the site in question is theburial ground of local ancestors and more-over the community envisions a memorialsite there.

• Municipal spokesperson has indicat-ed several times in public, that the by-lawhad been changed when in fact that hadnot yet occurred. This appears to be oneof several motivational strategies for thenudists and has continued uncorrected formonths.

• “Concerned Citizens of HCM” requestthat speaker Nair provide the communitywith the new by-law, Gazetted before 3April, which replaced the Hibiscus CoastMunicipal by-law (Part 2; Section 5.1 and5.2).

• The constant assertion that the con-ditional approval of the nudist applicationwas guided by the Constitution should bediscarded because there is no section orprovision of the constitution of RSA thatapproves public nudity as requested by thenudists.

• The extent of the municipality’s ef-forts to repackage the illegal desires of thenudists is a gloomy attempt to persuade

a resenting public while excluding the Con-cerned Citizens of HCM from several perti-nent meetings by strategically classifyingthose meetings as non-public.

I therefore call on Ronnie Nair, in his ca-pacity as speaker of HCM Council, to applya corrective measure by motivating the en-forcement of all existing laws in our com-munity, or produce copies of any changedlaw(s) in this regard, or declare Mpenjatia “lawless zone”.

Additionally, since public participationis the cornerstone of our democracy, theConcerned Citizens of HCM hereby chal-lenge the municipality to accept an openpublic debate on this matter in order toevaporate the continuous suspicious cloudin the public domain.

Don’t pick uphitch-hikersI AM shocked out of my socks as Iwrite this. Faith in humanity shouldbe a good thing but since my experi-ence one morning recently, mymindset is corrupted in believingthat doing good to others may bringyou bad luck.

On our way to work, my wife andI stopped at the Umtentweni trafficlight and I saw a well-dressed mid-dle- aged lady asking for a lift. Istopped next to her and before wecould ask anything she jumped inpushing money in my hand, de-manding that she had to go to Mur-chison Hospital.

I immediately assumed it was acrisis so in goodwill I drove on. Shekept on talking and talking, nevergiving us a chance to ask anything.She then phoned somebody andtold them she would be there in afew minutes. As we arrived at thehospital she told me to make aU-turn and wait few seconds.

Before I could ask why, a youngman came running up to the car toher side and through the windowtook money from her and droppedsomething on her lap. After this shetold me we can go. I was stunnedspeechless by this and as I drove offI realised I had just helped some-body to buy drugs.

I asked her what had just hap-pened and she said she just boughtcrack. We were so shocked. We tookher back to Umtentweni and thewhole experience made me scarednow to pick up any lift-seeking hu-man. I warn the public to watch outfor this tall blonde well-groomed la-dy asking for a lift at Umtentweni.If I sit and think now about all badstuff that could have gone wrong Ithank Jesus I’m still alive.

Proposaltook off likea ‘leadballoon’

ANattempthasbeenmadeatprovin-cial level to assist municipalities inKZN to improve servicedelivery. In a“back-to-basics” campaign, fivemu-nicipalities, including Ugu District,havebeentargetedbytheMEC.Acir-cular sets out specific activities to beundertaken. A phase appropriatelyaimedatUguwasheaded“Waterlossprogramme”,andthelistedactivitieswere checking meters, clearingstrainers, filters, leaking valves,leaking pipe joint overflows and ille-gal consumption.

There further needed to be func-tional and responsive fault- report-ing centres on a 24-hour basis, goodquality water and clear effluentspumped into the receiving environ-ment from waste water treatmentplants as well as fixing sewer spill-age; and planned routine and pre-ventativemaintenancewasnecessa-

ry.UnderthebanneroftheMunicipal

Systems Act, it was stated that thecode of conduct for officials andcouncillors is tobe enforcedand thattheremust be harmony and a strongworking relationship between lead-ership from different parties in mu-nicipalities between political leader-ship (sic), and that theremustbereg-ular meetings between party whips.

In light of the above the DA pro-posed that the Portfolio Committeeon Sound Governance and HumanResources should recommend to theexecutive committee that the DA bere-admitted to the core Water andSanitation Portfolio Committee fromwhich is has been expelled. Despitethe inept, sorry and calamitous wa-ter and sanitation situation that weare all experiencing on an on-goingbasis, the DA proposal took off like alead balloon. The ANC met the pro-posal with scorn and labelled it “po-litical”.

The DA’s membership of the Wa-terandSanitationPortfolioaswellasthe Finance Portfolio Committeewouldalsostrengthen thepossibilityof meetings being quorate. A fewdaysafter instructions fromtheMECabout how we can improve servicedelivery the Special ProgrammesPortfolio Committee was unable to

meet, as there was no quorum. TheANC has given itself a quorum solarge it can, in fact, be a quorum byitself, thought fit to send only twocouncillors to the meeting, wasting

valuable time, money and petrol aswellashoursofpreparationbyoppo-sition parties.

Water bill selection controversy

I READ the Fever a week or so backandtherewasastoryaboutapension-er who is paying more than R400 ev-erymonth forhismunicipal rates andstill the municipality says he owesthem.

Repentance means a sincere turning away, in both themind and heart, from self to God.

In a biblical context, repentance is recognizing that our sin isoffensive to God. Repentance can be shallow, such as theremorse we feel because of fear of punishment (like Cain)or it can be deep, such as realizing how much our sins costJesus Christ and how his saving grace washes us clean.

Many think the word repent means “to get your acttogether” or to “get religion” or “fly straight”; as if we could.Repentance requires taking in a whole new point of view;looking at it God’s way.

God simply asks us to turn. Come and join us on the 27thApril so that we can all turn back to God while repenting.

Olwandle wins schools debate

PRECIOUS GUMEDE>>[email protected]

PHUMLANI M Foundation hosted a schoolsdebate on Saturday at Esayidi TVET Col-lege, Gamalakhe campus.

The debate had 25 people participatingin five teams made up of Gamalakhe highschools - Olwandle and Gamalakhe Com-mercial High school. The other teams weremade up by Mr and Miss Gamalakhe 2015finalists.

Founder and president of Phumlani MFoundation, Phumlani Mzobe said the de-bate was interesting as it was based on a

sensitive topic - a statement made by theleader of the DA, Mmusi Maimane, at ajoint sitting of Parliament in his reply toSONA.

Maimane alleged that President JacobZuma is not an honourable man, but a bro-ken man presiding over a broken society.During the debate pupils navigated theirpoints around questions based on thisstatement.

“The need for such a debate emanatedfrom an observation of deteriorating levelsof the use of the English languageespecially in schools in rural areas,” saidMzobe.

Cut the calories inrice by using thiscooking method>> Cooking rice with coconut oil can also cut the calories

THEREhavebeenafewarticleslatelyon the Internet about how to makecertain foods less fattening by using

specific cooking methods. One that keepscropping us is the reheating of certainfoods.

According to this article - reheatingpasta makes it healthier - and now wehear that cooking rice with a bit of coco-nut oil (one teaspoon for every half-cupof rice added to boiling water before add-ing the rice), letting it cool down and re-

rice they looked at. And they believe itcould reduce starch by up to 60% in otherkinds of white rice.

Not all starches are the same. Digesti-ble starches take only a little time to di-gest and are quickly turned into glucose,and then later glycogen. Excess glycogenends up adding weight to our bodies if wedon't expend enough energy to burn it off.

Resistant starches take a long time forthe body to process and aren't convertedinto glucose or glycogen because we lackthe ability to digest them, and add up tofewer calories.

A growing body of research, however,has shown that it might be possible tochange the types of starches found infoods by modifying how they are pre-pared.

And rice, depending on the method ofpreparation, undergoes observablechemical changes. Most notably, fried riceand pilaf style rice have a greater propor-tion of resistant starch than the mostcommonly eaten type, steamed rice.

"If you can reduce the digestiblestarch in something like steamed rice, you

can reduce the calories," said Dr. Pushpar-ajah Thavarajva, a professor who is super-vising the research.

"The impact could be huge."There is precedence for this theory,

Thavarajva added. Work done on pota-toes at Harvard University and studies atIndian Universities using legumes and ce-reals noted similar starch-and-calorie re-ductions using similar preparations, hesaid.

Important things to remember whencooking rice:

• Cool the rice as quickly as possible(ideally within one hour). If left to coolslowly to room temperature, bacillus ce-reus bacteria begin growing on the grains,which can lead to a mild case of food poi-soning.

• Keep rice in the fridge for no morethan one day until reheating.

• When you reheat any rice, alwayscheck that the dish is steaming hot all theway through.

• Don't reheat rice more than once.

MINCE - also known as ground beef,pork, lamb or ostrich, is a staple meatin many households across South Afri-ca.

It’seasy to cook, goesa longwayandis a firm family favourite.

Throw in the fact that it freezes welland can be used in a multitude of differ-ent ways, it’s one of the most underrat-ed ingredients out there.

Are you stuck for ideas when you putmince in your trolley? Here are mealsideas for inspiration:

• Spaghetti Bolognaise – Spag Bol.Add a generous handful of Parmesanand serve with a green salad for ulti-mate home-made happiness.

• Cottage Pie pots – these little indi-vidual servings are great to make in ad-vance. In breaking with tradition, sweetpotato is used for the topping – giving

the dish a lower GI and lower carb con-tent. Banting thumbs up.

• Moussaka – a traditional Greekaubergine and mince bake. A must-try.

• Burgers – if you don’t like or eatburgers, I’m not quite sure what to sayto you.

• Chilli Con Carne – also knownsimply as “chilli” in the U.S. This heartymince stew is great for winter evenings.Take leftovers to work for lunch andyour colleagues will be begging you toshare.

• Lamb kofta on rosemary skewers– another Greek favourite. These littlekebabs are great for entertaining,served with some home-made tzatziki.

• Meatballs – no introduction need-ed.

17 awesomeBEER QUOTES>> ‘Beer. The best damn drink in the world.’ - Jack Nicholson

EVERY now and again in this life,words, thoughts and circum-stancewillcometogether inaper-

fect storm, reach a tipping point and re-sult in profound pearls of wisdom. Thisis not one of those times.

The gems belowweremined bywisemen,andwomen,at thebottomofabot-tle or three of fine ale. Thesewordsmayhave been simply floating past on riversof beer and were then plucked out ofether. However it happened, you can besure that whichever sage spoke thesetruths, they did so with an ice-cold beerin hand and a smile from ear to ear.

As far as quotes go, when one beginswith "Toquote thegreat." it doesn't usu-allyendin"HomerSimpson!"unlessyouare in a room full of beer-lovers. Thereare hundreds of great beer-quotes outthere, one for each and every occasion,and so here are a few of our favourites.Use them wisely. or not.

1. "He is a wise man who inventedbeer." - Plato

2."Alwaysdosoberwhatyousaidyouwoulddodrunk. Itwill teachyou tokeepyourmouth shut." - Ernest Hemingway.

3. "Milk is forbabies.Whenyougrowup you have to drink beer." - ArnoldSchwarzenegger

4. "Life is too short to drink cheapbeer." - Anon

5."Notallchemicalsarebad.Withoutchemicalssuchashydrogenandoxygen,there would be noway tomakewater, avital ingredient in beer." - Dave Barry

6. "Work is the curse of the drinkingclasses." - Oscar Wilde

7. "What care I how time advances, Iamdrinkingaletoday."-EdgarAllanPoe

8. "Good people drink good beer." -Hunter S Thompson

9. "I work until beer o'clock." -Stephen King

10. "You can't be a real countrywith-out a beer and an airline. It helps if youhavesomekindof football team,orsomenuclear weapons, but at the very leastyou need a beer." - Frank Zappa

11. "Beermakes you feel theway youought to feelwithoutbeer." -HenryLaw-son

12. "But that's only really one in dogbeers." - Anon

13. "I amnot addicted tobeer. It's ad-dicted to me." - Cyanide & Happiness

14. "Everybody needs to believe insomething. I believe I'll have anotherbeer." - WC Fields

And our top three.15. "Beer, now there's a temporary

solution." - Homer Simpson16. "Beer.Thebestdamndrink in the

world." - Jack Nicholson17. "Beer is proof that God loves us

and wants us to be happy." - BenjaminFranklin

That last one is actually the most fa-mous beer misquote in history. Old Benwas actually talking about vineyards atthe time,but I'll tell youwhat.heain't faroff and we'll take it.

Cheers.- Food24.

Beating over 800 other en-trants from across the globe tobe judged best overall, GrootConstantia’s 2013Chardonnayproudly represented South Af-ricaasoneofonlytwoChardon-nay’s from SA to feature in thetop 56 and to receive a goldmedal.

No stranger to being award-ed, this special Chardonnay al-soreceivedatrophyat the2014annual Taj Awards, a goldmedal at the Veritas WineAwards, a Winemakers ChoiceAward,aswellasaTerroirWineAward.

“Our Chardonnay has al-ways been an over achiever,”says Jean Naudé, CEO of GrootConstantia, who explains thatGroot Constantia’s Chardon-nay varietal has won a total of16goldmedals over the last tenvintages.

Groot Constantia’s wines ingeneral continue to rake in theawards with the estate havingwon a total of 86 top accoladessince 2003, and in fact this lat-est award comes close on theback of the recent 2015 TajAwards where Groot Constan-tia walked away with severalcovetedtrophies–includingbe-ing selected as the “Most IconicProducer” - indicating that thisyearmaywell be a bumper oneforGrootConstantia in termsofawards.

According to ViticulturistFloricius Beukes fundamentalto the success of the estateswines is its terroir coupledwith

the unique climate of the Con-stantia region: “The summerbreezesfromtheAtlanticOceanhave a big impact on our vine-yards, keeping them healthyand retaining the amazing fruitcharacter. Boela Gerber, GrootConstantia’s awarded wine-maker, says that in addition tolocation and climate, the newdirection that was taken in thevineyards several years ago,and the hard work of the teamhas enabled Groot Constantiato consistently produce winesof remarkable quality.

South Africa’s wine estateGroot Constantia is celebratingits 330th year of continuouswine production this year.

“The production of qualitywinefromGrootConstantiahasbecome part of its heritage andthe reason why it was soughtafter for centuries by aristo-crats and nobleman such asKing Louis Philippe of France,Frederick the Great of Prussiaand Napoleon Bonaparte.

“Consistency was a trait ofSimonvanderStel,ourfounder,whichwearestillcontinuingto-day and the reason why thisfarmisstill inbusinessafter330years,” concludes Naudé.

SALUTATIONS choc chips and marsh-mallows. Recently I have tried to dis-sipate the uncertainties of a certain

young woman who is inescapably about tobecome a single mother.

I have reassured her that the supportshe will need in this mammoth undertak-ing will come from the most unlikely ofsources and that her fears are in essencepaper thin. For there will no doubt be amultitude of persons who will love thechild as much as she does, whether theybe friends, family, or work colleagues re-sulting in, with a whole village supportingyou one could really question the single inparent.

I myself did not set out to become a sin-gle parent, rather I was committed to bethe best parent I could be and that mostcertainly has not changed. The journey hasbeen quite daunting with many challengesand struggles, my son however, has been

the one who has really given me every en-couragement.

I am happy to have experienced a rea-sonably irregular and extraordinary life -the passion for all I do is of paramount im-portance to me, which will never change,when parenting what does change howev-er is ones perspective which then changesthe balance of things.

Flooring that meets your needs>> Function of a room influences the flooring required

FLOORS need to set the moodand tone of a roomwhile at thesame time offering durability

and easy maintenance. With hun-dreds of flooring options to choosefrom it can be overwhelming for firsttime homeowners to select the rightflooring for their new home.

Whether you are after conve-nience or style, it is important to pickthe right flooring options to suit yourlifestyle toensure thatyoureceive themost fromyour floors.For theperfectcombinationofbeautyanddurability,consider the following when shop-ping for flooring for your new home.

Functionality: The function of aroom influences the flooring re-quired. For example, wooden floor-ing works beautifully in the livingroom,bedroomsanddining rooms itis warm and comfortable underfoot,long-lasting and offers a gorgeousaesthetic. However, it is certainly notanoption for thebathroom, aswood-en flooring will warp due to the highmoisture content in this space. Forwetareas, suchaskitchensandbath-rooms,vinyl, tilesandscreed flooringare better options.

Foot traffic:Considerwhethertheroom will have a high or low traffic

flowandhowmuchwearandtear thenew flooring will be exposed to, saysFloors Direct marketing manager,HelenMarshall. For a high traffic ar-ea, make sure you choose a durableoptionthatiseasytomaintain.Roomsthat experience high footfall, such astheentrancearea,passageandkitch-en require flooring that is resistant towater, stains, scratches and scuff-marks - for these areas, non-slip tilesand screed flooring are ideal options,she says.

Installation: Decide whether youare going to install the floor yourselforwhetherasupplierwill install it, asthis will have an impact on the endcost. Request a few samples to takehome and view in the areawhere theflooring will be installed, advisesMarshall - this allows you to view thesample in the correct lighting and todetermine whether it matches therest of the décor.

Style: Select colours that comple-ment themood that youwould like to

create and match your décor style.For a calming ambience, select light-ermore neutral colours. If youwouldlike to create a warm and cosy look,tryadarkwoodoption,saysMarshall.Laminate flooring for example, isavailable inawiderangeofcolourop-tions and is an affordable option toreplicate the look of real woodenfloors. Bamboo is one of themost en-vironmentally friendly flooring op-tions you can choose for your homeand it is exceptionally durable, offer-ing beautiful visual appeal to anyroom it graces. For that premiumau-thentic look, consider solid woodflooring that will provide your homewith warm ambiance and years ofgood service.

Maintenance: Everyone wants tokeep their floors looking like new,therefore analysing the cost of careandmaintenance is an essential partof the buying process. In a housewhere residents lead andactive lifes-tyle or where family and friends areoften entertained, avoid flooring thatrequires a lot of care and mainte-nance, such as light carpeting for ex-ample, says Marshall. She says thatfor these areas, laminate floors are agood option, as they are extremelyeasy to maintain and dirt can simplybe mopped away with a microfibremop or damp cloth. When opting for

solidwoodfloors,makesurethattheyrequirenosandingorsealingoncein-stalled, but that they are ready to beinstalled and walked upon immedi-ately.

Future needs: If youwould like tochangeyourdecorschemeinthenearfuture or if you know your needs aregoing to change, opt for flooring thatis easier to replace or amore perma-nent option with a timeless appeal.Laminate flooring for example, is afloating floor system and is thereforenot nailed to the subfloor - it is inex-pensiveandrelativelyeasytoreplace.Solidwoodflooringismoreexpensiveand hence, considered a long-terminvestment and a permanent fixture- it also has the benefit of offering atimelesselegancethatgoeswithmostdécor styles.

Tiles are a very functional choice,although they can be cold underfoot,but they can be costly and time-con-suming to have them changed, so besure to choose a classical style in aneutral colour to ensure a long-last-ing aesthetic appeal. Carpeting iscomfortable and warm underfoot,and a great choice for bedrooms.However, it requires a lot of mainte-nance and it is not the best choice ifyou are planning to start a family orconsidering adopting a pet.

Adding class with glass

GLASS is a versatile material, usefulfor all sorts of jobs around thehouse. Apart from traditional ap-

plications such as glazing in doors, win-dows and mirrors, it has a great decora-tive value when used for shelves, back-splashes, room dividers and ornaments.But to use glass to fill its full potential itis essential to master the techniquesneeded to cut and shape it.

Types of glassOne of the great advantages of using

glass is that there are an infinite varietyof types, patterns and colours to choosefrom, including:

Float glass: Most clear glass used forwindows and doors is float glass. Thishigh quality glass is available in a varietyof thicknesses. It is vitally important tochoose the correct thickness of glass froyour needs – consult a glass supplier tofind out which thickness is most suitableto your needs.

Toughened glass: If, during manufac-ture, glass is heated close to melting pointthen quickly cooled, it is up to five timesstronger than ordinary glass. This type oftoughened glass is widely used for glazingpatio doors, tabletops and any other are-as subject to above-average strain. Avail-able in various thicknesses, depending onthe size of the sheet, it does have the dis-advantage of being almost impossible tocut or drill, so be sure to order the correctsize.

Mirrors: Most modern mirrors aremade from 6mm thick high-quality floatglass and are virtually distortion free. Theglass is then backed with silver, copper orpaints to give a reflective finish.

Wired glass: Wired glass is formed bysandwiching a welded wire mesh withinthe glass during the manufacturing proc-ess. This means that the glass is particu-

larly tough and holds together even whencracked or subjected to high tempera-tures. The principal use of wired glass isin fire-resistant glazing or in roof lights tohelp prevent accidents.

Diffuse reflection glass: Sometimes itis necessary to use glass with a non-re-flective surface, such as when framingpictures, prints or photographs. Diffusereflection glass provides a solution bysubduing reflections while at the sametime providing good transparency.

Patterned glass: This is produced in awide variety of colours and textures andis usually between 3mm and 6mm thick.Though it can be chosen to complementthe décor, the greatest advantage of pat-terned glass is that it offers a degree ofprivacy without shutting the light out en-tirely.

Solar control glass: This kind of glassreduces the transmission of heat, lightand glares from sunlight. It is available ina range of colours in float or patternedtexture finishes.

Cutting and shapingCutting square or regular shapes out

of glass is comparatively easy with a littlecare and patience. However, cutting oddor unusual shapes requires skill and plan-ning if a good result is to be obtained. Itis essential when cutting any glass to restit on a flat working surface such as a kitch-en or dining room table. Place a blanketon the table first to prevent it from beingscratched.

To cut glass, you need a glass cutter,a little paraffin to lubricate the wheel, apair of flat-nosed pliers and a chinagraphpencil or felt-tipped pen to mark cuttinglines on the surface. To cut rounded or un-usual shapes, you need a template tomatch. Make this from brown paper orcardboard so that it lies under the glass

and the shape can be traced with the cut-ter.Makethetemplateabout3mmsmall-er all round than the actual measure-ments of the cut to allow for the distancebetween the edge of the template andthe cutting wheel.

Before scoring the line, first nick theedgeoftheglassateachendwiththecut-ter. When scoring, hold the cutter be-tween the index and middle finger andgrip it underneath with your thumb, mak-ing sure that it is in contact with the sur-face of the glass at all times to ensure aclean cut. Stand still and push the cutteraway from you in one single movement.Try to cut straight through the glass in onego – never attempt to work backwards orthe cut may end up other than where youwant it.

Once you have scored around the out-side of the shape, tap the glass gentlyalongtheundersidewithasmallpinham-merortheendofthecutter,then,grippingthe piece firmly on each side of the line,snap evenly downwards to break theglass. Any remaining slivers of glass canbe “nibbled” away using a pair of broad,flat-nosed pliers, placing the tip of thejaws at right angles to the line you havejust cut in the glass.

Drilling holesIt is quite often necessary to cut a disc

form a piece of glass, or to make a circularhole when fitting an extractor fan. How-ever, drilling holes in glass, to fit a mirrorfor instance, requires a different tech-nique and a more careful choice of cuttingequipment. Glass has a tendency to shat-ter when subjected to vibrations, so it isimportant to use a drill that operates atless than 350 rpm. As very few powerdrills can be made to spin at this speed,it isadvisabletouseahandbrace.Thedrillbits should be tungsten-tipped ad of aspear point or spade point design.

To avoid the glass from cracking be-tween the edge of the glass and thedrilled holes - never drill holes in glass lessthan 13mm from the edge – or less than25mm if a heavy piece of glass is involved.Be sure to always wear safety goggleswhen you are drilling in order to protectyour eyes from small glass splinters.

Lay the glass on a flat surface, markwhere it needs to be drilled with a felt-tipped pen and make a ring of putty orPlasticinearoundtheoutsideofthemark.Pour a quantity of lubricant into the ring,such as turpentine or other white spirit forplain glass, or water for mirrored glass.Start drilling from one side of the glass,and just before you break through to theother side, turn the glass over, repeat theprocess and complete the hole form theopposite side. It is best to drill from theback to the front surface. - Property24

Easy DIY spoon chandelier

CHANDELIERS are a gorgeous addition toalmost any space, however, they can bequite pricey and heavy.

All you need are some plastic spoons,a large, clear water bottle, a light fixtureand globe, some plastic adhesive glue, aStanley knife and a little patience, and youcould create some lighting magic.

You can make your own simple, cost-ef-fectiveandbeautifulsolutiontothisdilem-ma.

All you need are some plastic spoons,a large, clear water bottle, a light fixtureand globe, some plastic adhesive glue, aStanley knife and a little patience, and youcould create some lighting magic.

Here’s how:1. Buy a large packet of white plastic, ca-

tering spoons, and using a Stanley knife,carefully remove the handles from eachspoon.

Cut them off where they join the headof the spoon.

2. Take your water bottle, and using thesame Stanley knife, carefully and neatly re-move the bottom-end of the bottle.

3. Place a medium-sized drop of clearplastic adhesive glue on the plastic spoon,

4. Cover the neck of the bottle with aring of spoons by simply gluing one spooninto another, leaving a slight overhang.

Continue this process until the ring islarge enough to comfortably fit over theneck of the water bottle.

Glue the completed ring securely intoplace.

5. To make the light fixture, puncture ahole into the lid of the water bottle. It mustbe big enough to slide some electrical wirethrough it.

Thread the wire through the lid, insertit into the bottle and fasten the lid.

6. From underneath, work out whereyou would like the globe to hang, and thentie a knot in the wire accordingly, to ensureit holds the globe in the correct place.

7. Fit the light fixture to the electric wireinside the water bottle, and lastly, installthe bulb.

Choose a bulb that does not get too hotwhen it is switched on – a CFL or an LEDglobe will work best.

8. Now you can hang your beautifulhomemade spoon-delier anywhere youlike in your home for an amazing aestheticeffect. – Property24

where the handle was re-moved, and paste it, face-down, around the water bot-tle.

Start at the bottom of thewater bottle – paste a row ofspoons around the circumfer-ence of the bottle, ensuringthat at least half the spoonsform an overhang.

Paste the next row so thathalf the spoon overlaps withthe row beneath it.

Continue this process un-til the entire bottle is coveredwith spoons in a fish scale-like pattern.

IN a move to curb South Africa’s appall-ing road death toll, Transport MinisterDipuo Peters is proposing restrictionsfor goods vehicles on public roads.

According to the department, therestrictionswillaffectcommercialvehi-cles with a gross vehicle mass (GVM)exceeding 9 000kgs.

The intended regulations will bepublished for public comment and dis-cussion later in 2015.

The new regulations state: “No per-son shall operate on the public road agoods vehicle the gross vehicle mass ofwhich exceeds 9 000kgs from 5pm to8pm, Monday to Friday (except publicholidays) and from 6am to 9am, Mon-day to Friday (except public holidays).”

Essentially vehicles with a GVM ofmore than 9 000kgs can only operateon public roads from 9am to 4pm and8pm to 6am during week days. Thereare, however, provisions for emergencyservice vehicles.

“This provision shall not apply in

case of emergencies, to the driver of afire-fighting vehicle, a fire-fighting re-sponse vehicle, an emergency medicalresponse vehicle, a rescue vehicle or anambulance, who drives such vehicle inthe performance of his or her duties, atraffic officer or a person appointed interms of the South African Police Ser-

vice Act, 1995 (Act No 68 of 1995), whodrives a vehicle in the carrying out of hisor her duties or any person driving a ve-hicle while responding to a disaster ascontemplated in the Disaster Manage-ment Act, 2002 (Act No 57 of 2002).”

Transport department spokesper-son, Ishmael Mnisi, states that the reg-

ulations are in “draft form” and willhave to be presented to his party’s cabi-net, discussed in Parliament and will in-corporate public input. He states thatthe department hopes to implementthe proposed regulations by the end of2015.

Planets and meteorshowers in May

>> Venus can be observed nicely in May after sunset

RADO [email protected]

Map explainedLOOK at themap and once you knowhowtoreadit, itwillbeverymeaning-ful toyou,because it showsallplanetsand their times of observation andheight from the horizon.

I alwaysmake themap for the 15th

of themonth so that themovement ofthe planets can be minimized as themonth progresses. Look at the rightinsertof theEarth– theEarth is rotat-ing clockwise if observed from theSouthern pole, and also clockwisearound the Sun as all other planets.You can see the four major points –Sunrise, Midday, Sunset and Mid-night. The small white line indicatesthehorizon. The explanation is at the

bottom. All three small pictures arefacing North.

• At sunset Jupiter is in themiddleof the sky.

• At midnight Saturn is directlyabove the observer, at the zenith.

• At sunriseNeptune is high in thenorthern sky, while Uranus is lower.Now if you want to read themap it isveryeasywiththehelpofasimplerul-er – just place it on the certain pointstouching the Earth and you will seewhat can be observed and how highin the sky.The ruler will represent the horizonand above the horizon is what couldbe seen at the selected point. Alwaysbear inmindthesideof theEarth fac-ing the Sun is day so no planets canbe visible, while the side away fromtheSunisnightandthentheyarevisi-ble.

VenusThe brightest planet can be ob-

firsthalf of thenight. In thebeginningof the month is already high enoughin the sky at sunset. On the 10th is ateastern quadrature – making 90°with Earth and setting at midnight.

SaturnIs in Scorpio and is at the zenith in

midnight. In the beginning of themonth rises shortly after sunset at18:40. In its retrograde (counter-
