Alfie se huis brand byna af DEVIDEAN MOSES
“Toe ek my deur oopmaak, was die vlamme reeds hoog.” Só vertel Joy Cupido, ma van Alfred Cupido (40), die bekende skrootkar-bestuurder van Charleston Hill. Alfred, wat doofstom is, woon op sy ma se erf in St Olmarstraat, Charleston Hill, in ’n woonstel waar die brand Sondag 5 Oktober omstreeks 09:30 uitgebreek het. Minstens drie mense; Alfie, Chantelle Bester (23) en Keithan Cupido (6) wat in die woonstel geslaap het, is beseer en sterk steeds aan in Paarlhospitaal se hoë intensiewe sorgeenheid. Keithan is oorgeplaas na die Rooikruis-hospitaal in Kaapstad. Joy vertel: “Die brand het in ’n oogwink se tyd gebeur toe ’n onbekende man na ons bure se huis gehardloop het om ons te waarsku dat Alfie se woonhuis brand. “Ek het nog geslaap en het wakker geskrik weens mense wat aan my voordeur hamer en skree: ‘dit brand! dit brand!’ Ek het toe vinnig opgespring, my kamerjas gegryp en na die voordeur gehardloop.
“Toe ons by Alfie se woonhuis kom, het die vlamme reeds hoog gebrand. Vier onbekende mans het die brandende huis ingehardloop en betyds vir Alfie, Chantelle en vir klein Keithan (6) gered,” vertel die geskokte Joy. “Alfie is ’n baie gewilde persoon in die gemeenskap en is altyd gereed om almal te help waar hy kan. Hy is so geliefd onder die inwoners van die gebied dat hy gereeld in hul tuine werk. “Ek is baie dankbaar vir almal wat ons gehelp het asook vir die vier mans wat hul lewe op die spel geplaas het om my familie te red,” vertel Joy. Die ontstaan van die brand is steeds onbekend. Die brandweer is na die toneel ontbied, maar die omstanders en gemeenskap het daarin geslaag om die brand self te blus. Die hoofuitvoerende beampte van Paarl-hospitaal het wel bevestig dat al drie persone in die hospitaal opgeneem is vir ernstige brandwonde. “Keithan is oorgeplaas, terwyl Alfred en Chantelle steeds by ons versorg word. Joy Cupido en Ashley Cupido is ook in die noodeenheid behandel vir rook-inasemhaling en dieselfde dag ontslaan.”
Alfie Cupido staan by sy geliefde skroot-kar waarmee hy dikwels in die strate van Charleston Hill gesien is.

Wellington betoog teen dwelms DEVIDEAN MOSES “As jy deur die strate van Wellington ry sien jy net hoe armoede en werkloosheid hier heers.” Só vertel Shafiek Mouton (33), ’n bekommerde inwoner van Wellington. Shafiek het Augustus-maand ’n beroep op Facebook gemaak en inwoners uitgenooi om hande te vat om misdaad, veral in Wellington, hok te slaan. Volgens hom gaan die jeug gebuk onder die misdrywe wat verband hou met dwelms. “Die jeug word blootgestel aan dwelms en veral tik. Dit is hartverskeurend om te sien hoe jongmense hul lewens vernietig en hoe die dwelmhandelaars net ryk word in die proses. “Wanneer jy een probeerslag van tik neem, kan dit veroorsaak dat jy nie kan stop nie en vinnig word jy verslaaf hieraan,” sê Shafiek. Die terugvoering op Facebook was goed en die gemeenskap van Wellington het ingestem om te help deur ’n optog met baniere deur die strate te hou. Die groep wat hulself nou “Wellington teen dwelms” noem, het ook hande geneem met die polisie, geestelike organisasies en skole om aandag aan hierdie probleem te gee. Die eerste optog het ongeveer 400 mense gelok wat deur die strate van Wellington gestap het.
Genoeg is genoeg: So het die Wellingtonners tydens hul optog teen dwelms in die strate geskree. Almal was geklee in rooi T-hemde om die teken van liefde en stop-teken teen dwelms te simboliseer. “Ons het vanaf die Egoli-gebied deur die strate beweeg en verskeie groepe mense het by ons aangesluit,” vertel Shafiek. Die visie van die gemeenskap is om kinders teen dwelms en ongewenste swangerskappe te beskerm. Volgens Shafiek wil hulle kinders help om die geleentheid te skep om positiewe besluite te maak teen die euwel van dwelms. “Ons moet saam staan en sê: My kind is jou kind en ons gee om vir mekaar,” meen Shafiek.
Verder vertel hy: “Cornal Hendricks, ons Springbok-rugbyspeler, kom ook uit die Paton-gebied hier in Wellington. Ons is baie trots op hom en hy dien as voorbeeld vir ons jeug. Hierdie Paton-gebied is een van die areas wat ook tans gebuk gaan onder die gevolge van dwelms,” vertel die bekommerde Shafiek. “Saam as gemeenskap kan ons die euwel beveg.” Die gemeenskap word genooi om op Saterdag 11 Oktober teen 10:00 ’n optog deur die strate van Wellington by te woon. Vir navrae oor die optog, bel Shafiek Mouton by 082 474 0011.
The Paarl East Police is looking for a missing person, Ebrahim Joseph (aka Bibap van der Westhuizen), ever since 22 October 2002. Ebrahim was 16 years old and resided at 10 Desiree Close, Smartie Town, when he went missing. According to police spokesperson, Ebrahim is allegedly mentally challenged. He has not been seen since he left his house and went to his place of work. If anyone has information on his whereabouts, contact sgt. Haviwla Stephans at SAPS Paarl East on 021 877 5900 or 079 894 1353.
The Paarl West Community Policing Forum (CPF) in partnership with the Paarl Police would like to inform the public of the following crime tendencies recorded for the month of September. ) Residential burglaries: In the farming area of Windmeul, Old Paarl and Wemmershoek Road, incidents of residential burglaries occurred especially between Wednesdays and Saturdays, with the majority occurring on Fridays between 11:00 and 14:00. Northern Paarl reported the most burglaries for this area, followed by the Lemoenkloof area. The following streets were targeted: Upper Faure, Bethel, Bo Meul, Hendrika, Joerning, Kronkel, Lang, Moll, Nicola, Peter, Pieter Wium, Reitz, Skool, Plein, Riparia and Koning. The majority of the burglaries occurred on a Wednesday, however incidents were reported on all days of the week. Most of the incidents occurred between 11:00 and 14:00 followed by 14:00 to 15:00. Two arrests have been made in this area. Dorp, Fabriek, Stirling, Verster, Louis Botha, Burbank, Delmont, Christelle, Du Toit Streets in and around the Paarl CBD, Denneburg and Klein Parys areas were also targeted for residential burglaries. These incidents occurred mostly on a Monday and Tuesday at random times. Two arrests were made relating to incidents in this area. Southern Paarl had the least amount of residential burglaries reported. ) Business burglaries: Business Burglaries showed a drastic increase in the farming areas for the month of September compared to the previous months. Farms in the Sonstraal area, Wemmershoek Road, Old Paarl Road, Bo-Dal Road and Malmesbury Road were mostly targeted, with the majority of incidents occurring on a Friday, followed by a Monday between 05:00 and 10:00. Four arrests were made in this regard. In the CBD, Triangle Park and Daljosaphat areas, businesses in the fol-
lowing streets were targeted: Lady Grey, Main Road, New, Triangle, EK Green, Klein Drakenstein, Langenhoven, Arboretum, Market and Jan Van Riebeeck Road. Incidents occurred between 06:00 and 08:00 on all days of the week. Two arrests were made in this area. Business burglaries in both Paarl North and South were reported in Louws Avenue, Auret, Zion, Berlyn, Hospital Streets and Main Road. The majority of incidents occurred on a Monday between 06:00 and 08:00, with three people arrested in connection with the burglaries. ) Theft out of motor vehicle: As reported throughout the month, including previous months, theft out of motor vehicle is a concern of the Paarl police. About 70 cases were reported for September. The incidents were not in one specific area and time frames are throughout the day and night with no specific days. Members of the public are still leaving valuable items in their vehicles. Seven people have been arrested for theft out of a motor vehicle. ) Theft of motor vehicle: Eleven incidents were reported for the month with the majority being stolen in the CBD area. Four arrests were made in this regard. ) Possession of stolen property: About 30 arrests have been made for the possession of stolen property for the month. It is vital that all thefts and burglaries are reported so police can link the stolen property to incidents. An example: A suspect was arrested and linked to two burglaries in separate areas in Paarl on the same day. The complainant was not aware that the suspect had been caught and was surprised to find that all his possessions had been retrieved earlier the day. .

UIA rolls out in Wellington In May this year, Unlimited Internet Access (UIA) South Africa installed their technology at Wellington High School. UIA’s aim is to prove that their technology is the latest technology that will provide internet to all classrooms and the e-learning solution to schools. E-learning is the latest technology for schools astext books will be replaced bysoftware, where teachers and learners will access the server, via tablets (iPads etc), where the content of the curriculum is installed. A Wi-Fi network will be the vehicle for the tablets to be connected to the server, with no wiring. “South Africa lags behind the world with internet connectivity,” was the heading of a daily newspaper article and it is UIA’s main focus to be able to supply uncapped internet access to the community at an affordable fixed monthly fee. The UIA have broadened their network and will now be able to supply wireless internet to the people around Wellington High School.
The streets that will be connected first are: Davids, Williams, Poole, Scholtz and April Avenue. The UIA will branch out to the new school, which will open next year in Van Wyksvlei, also supplying the rest of Van Wyksvlei, Newton and Wellington with internet access. UIA offers 30 days free uncapped internet access to everyone who is interested. The monthly fee to households is R150 per month, which is fixed for two years. In year three a telephone service will be added. And in year five they will add television channels through the network. The cost for uncapped internet access, free landline calls and a minimum of 100 television channels in total, will be at a fixed affordable fee per month. Households will not pay for equipment, installation,registration,landlinerentalsorextra data per month.

Star Star Signs Signs CAPRICORN
22 December to 21 January
Mental objectivity and concentration are excellent now. You are able to communicate effectively now, especially on subjects that require precise, articulate formulation of principles. Your approach is wellorganized, clearly structured, very matter-of-fact and not very intuitive.
AQUARIUS
21 January To 20 February
Romance and flirtations are likely now. You are feeling warm, expressive, and lively. Loving feelings flow between you and the people you meet, especially those of the opposite sex. Friendships are also strengthened at this time. Also, your creativity and desire to make something beautiful is stimulated now.
PISCES
20 February to 21 March
Your thoughts turn to love and this is a favorable time to bring out any concerns you have in your personal relationships. Agreements and cooperation can be achieved easily now. You readily discuss your personal needs and desires. Also, you are more aware of beauty and may want to rearrange your decor or buy something to beautify your surroundings.
ARIES
21 March to 21 April
Hidden passions, fears, jealousies, longings, desires, or needs surface in you now and can stir up trouble in your closest relationships. You are prone to be compulsive or demanding in a close relationship, to be emotionally driven and to force things to a head in some emotionallyladen situation. Positively, a relationship can be deepened and reborn now, given new life by your willingness to reveal yourself.
TAURUS
21 April to 21 May
You are prone to be compulsive or demanding in a close relationship, to be emotionally driven and to force things to a head in some emotionally-laden situation. Positively, a relationship can be deepened and reborn now, given new life by your willingness to reveal yourself completely to your loved one.
GEMINI
21 May to 22 June
The need for more freedom, independence, or novelty on your part, or on the part of someone close to you, may disrupt the status quo in an important relationship. You may also come into contact with someone who is very different from yourself and who challenges, surprises, or upsets you. Expect the unexpected in your relationships!
CANCER
22 June to 23 July
Self-discipline, training, persevering through a dry or slow period, and working quietly or in meager circumstances are themes in this time period. You have the ability and stamina to concentrate, to work carefully and thoroughly, and to accomplish something modest, yet of real practical value and substance now.
LEO
23 Julie to 24 August
You have a lot of mental energy and are eager to "attack" intellectual or conceptual problems. You are likely to come up with a clever solution or a very workable plan, especially if you brainstorm with others. You also tend to make up your mind very quickly and decisively now and to translate your ideas into action.
VIRGO
24 August to 23 September
The need for more freedom, independence, or novelty on your part, or on the part of someone close to you, may disrupt the status quo in an important relationship. You may also come into contact with someone who is very different from yourself and who challenges, surprises, or upsets you. Expect the unexpected in your relationships!
LIBRA
23 September to 23 October
You are alert, mentally sharp and clear, and your ability to comprehend new concepts is heightened. Also, you can verbalize and articulate your ideas very well at this time. Intellectual curiosity is also high. This is a good time to make plans and strategies or begin a course of study.
SCORPIO
23 October to 23 November
Communications, conversations, sending and receiving messages, and taking care of routine tasks that require mental clarity are important activities now. It is a good time to present your ideas and point of view to others, as you express your thoughts clearly, though you are not apt to listen as well. Buying, selling, or negotiating is likely to go well now.
SAGITTARIUS
23 November to 22 December
You should certainly spread your wings during this time period and seek out new opportunities for growth and advancement, but try to curb wild and unrealistic ideas of what benefits can accrue. With a little care and attention to detail, you can, indeed, help turn the corner, bringing yourself a step closer to your goals. X1P9K5P9-GZ101014

You the Entrepreneur: The E- of business DAVID MALHERBE We experienced severe changes in the way we live and do things during the last decade or two. The major driving force behind these is undoubtedly the technology available to us. E-banking, e-learning, e-commerce and many more became available because of the staggering growth in the use of computers and the internet. Yet there are people who claim that they are old school and do things the way it was done before. Advances in technology wait for no one. In today’s world, no one can afford to say that they are not interested in, or do not find it necessary to use computers. Computers are the new tools that everybody should learn to use.
Being without it, is like a new kind of illiteracy. If you cannot use a computer and the internet, you are to a large extent cut off from the modern day world of business. The most basic things are internet banking and using emails for correspondence. On the one hand we can reason that this should be to the detriment of a company like the Post Office who will now handle fewer letters. On the other hand new markets of e-trade opened up where people order and pay for goods over the internet via websites. All these goods need to be sent to and delivered to clients which open vast opportunities for parcel mail. But e-business goes far beyond emails and internet banking. More and more people nowadays make a living by working from home
mainly using a computer and the internet. Experts believe that the internet is still only in its baby phase. I believe the internet and advanced computer technology will more and more become the linchpin around which business will develop in future. Therefore you can guess what my next question will be. Yes, are you computer literate or are you busy learning? Remember all such learning is an investment in your business as well as in your own future. Your future business and employment will to a large extent be determined by your computer literacy. Do not stay behind. Do all you can to learn as many of these most needed skills as possible. ) David Malherbe is a business- and career consultant and lives in Wellington. He can be contacted via his web page www.jedidiah.org.za or T/F 021 873 0262 or on Facebook at “Jy die Entrepreneur.”
Entrepreneurial spirit encouraged among SA teens Recent reports revealed that according to Minister of Basic Education, Angie Motshekga’s response to parliamentary questions, over half a million learners are registered to write the Grade 12 final exams across South Africa this year. Many are encouraged that such a large number of learners are seeing it through to Grade 12, while other experts and opinion leaders are concerned because this is an indication of the number of learners that will need to enter the job market in the coming year. The most recent youth unemployment statistics recorded South Africa’s youth unemployment at a staggering high of 36%. At the opening of the Youth Employment Conference in September, Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa mentioned that government is looking at employment tax incentives to encourage employers to employ first-time employees, such as school leavers and university graduates. This is one of the ways that government is looking at addressing the youth unemployment issue. The vision of the SA Teen Entrepreneur Foundation, which was formed in 2011, is to

cultivate and promote the entrepreneurial spirit in all South African teenagers, while still at school. Under the leadership of Lydia Zingoni, founder and director of The SA Teen Entrepreneur Foundation, the foundation has been running a number of workshops, seminars and competitions with high schoolers to encourage entrepreneurial thinking and nurture their ideas. The newest initiative that will launch on 28 October at Bishops Diocesan College in Rondebosch is establishing High School Entrepreneur Societies. The vision is to grow entrepreneurs and business leaders at all high schools in South Africa through establishing entrepreneur clubs and societies in each high school in the country. The ripple effect is that, through encouraging entrepreneurial teens to explore their ideas at a young age, a generation of employers will graduate from school and each community around the school will benefit from the impact of the business activities of these societies. “The staggering youth unemployment statistics are a stark reminder that we need to implement programmes that will make youth employable when they leave school and possibly even make them employers from a young age already,” says Lydia. The launch event is open to parents, teachers, business and political leaders and learners who are interested in playing an active part in supporting South African youth to play an active role in the economy. There is no cost to attend but bookings are essential as space is limited. For more information please contact Nadia Snyders on 021 447 6183 or send an email to nadia.snyders@teenentrepreneur.co.za.

Skud die soutgewoonte Sout het altyd ’n interessante rol gespeel in die geskiedenis van mense en dit is as kosbare verbruiksartikel verhandel, gebruik as ’n geldeenheid en oorloë is gevoer oor sout. Sout is ’n essensiële mineraal wat die liggaam help om vloeistof te behou in bloedselle, inligting deur die senuweestelsel te stuur en help met die opname van sekere voedingstowwe van die kleiner spysverteringskanaal. Te veel sout is baie nadelig vir die
gesondheid en is een van die erkende faktore wat bydra tot ’n verhoogde risiko vir hartaanvalle en beroertes. Baie mense is nie bewus van die gevare van ’n hoë sout-dieet nie, terwyl sommige mense inderdaad die aanbevole 5 g sout per dag (omtrent 1t) oorskry, met meer as dubbeld die hoeveelheid, volgens die Hart- en Beroertestigting Suid-Afrika. ’n Hoë soutinname dra by tot hipertensie (hoë bloeddruk) wat ook een van die belangrikste voorspellers is vir beroerte en ernstige kardiovaskulêre toestande soos ’n hartaanval
Oktober is borskankermaand en gemeenskapswerker, Karel Dampies, het saam met jeug in die Paarl bome met pienk lint versier om kankerbewustheid te ondersteun.
of ’n hartdefek. Ander nadelige effekte sluit in ’n toenemende gevaar vir niersiekte, nierstene en maagkanker. Om die risiko vir ’n beroerte of hartaanval te verminder, is dit belangrik om die ‘nommers’ te ken. ’n Normale bloeddruklesing is minder as 120/80 tot 129/84, 130/85 tot 139/89 word beskou as hoog na normaal, 140/90 tot 159/99 effense hipertensie, 160/100 tot 179/109 matige hipertensie en hoër as 180/110 ernstige hipertensie.

Although polio has been eradicated in 99% of countries in the world, some hot spots are left in the Middle East and West Africa. On Friday 24 October at 10:30, Rotary will present a Livestream internet event on the website endpolionow.org, to invite support for the battle against this dangerous disease. The public health effort to eliminate all cases of polio infection around the world, begun in 1988 and led by the World Health Organisation, UNICEF and the Rotary Foundation, has reduced the number of annually diagnosed cases from the hundreds of thousands to 291 in 2012, a 99,9% reduction. This remarkable achievement has been supported by more than 30 000 Rotary Clubs worldwide, including the Rotary Club of Paarl, which has been making financial contributions to the Polio Plus campaign since it started, and doubled its annual contribution last year. But recently there has been a bounce back in some countries towards more cases. In May this year the World Health Organisation declared a global health emergency for only the second time since regulations permitting it to do so were adopted in 2007, due to a spread of polio from Pakistan, Syria and Cameroon to Afghanistan, Iraq and Equatorial Guinea, respectively. Immunisation is especially compromised in war-torn areas. If polio is the next disease to be successfully eradicated, this will represent only the third time this has ever been achieved, after smallpox and rinderpest. India is the latest country to successfully stop transmission of polio. To learn more, visit endpolionow.org.

Grade 9’s: Choose subjects for future use Grade 9 learners are currently wrestling a very difficult issue: Choosing which subjects they will take with them for the rest of their school careers, and ultimately be tested on during the National Senior Certificate exams in 2017. There are many factors that need to be taken into account, and it is an exceptionally hard choice to make, which will have a profound impact on the rest of their lives. “Grade 9s must choose their subjects with care, and not before they have thoroughly done their homework about the implications of their choice,” says Dr Felicity Coughlan, director of The Independent Institute of Education, SA’s largest private higher education institution. Many young people hope to pass matric well enough to be able to study further and some will have aspirations of degrees that are very strict about required subjects and performance. Those who are not clear about what to do, should visit the websites of both public and private higher education institutions to verify the requirements and let that be a guide for subject choices. Look at a range of different institutions and courses within a desired field to allow numerous choices after matric. For those who are not yet 100% sure about what they want to be when they grow up, Coughlan suggests making choices that will keep a wide range of options open. “There is a list of designated subjects which are the ones that higher education institutions require for admission. Ensure that all your subjects are drawn from that list, unless you are absolutely sure you want to pursue a career that won’t require higher education. But don’t make that decision lightly, as you may well change your mind later on.” It is important to pursue a field of study which genuinely interests you, as the vast majority of your life will be spent working, and

everything is just so much better when you do something you love. Determine which subjects mirror your interests and career dreams, and include them. Choose at least two strong subjects that you really enjoy and in which you can do well – even if your friends think those are not “cool” or “real” subjects. Remember that admission to higher education is performance-based, so it makes sense to do very well in some subjects rather than badly in all of them because you chose only gateway subjects. For example, if you know you will need maths but are struggling with it, it may make sense not to do science and instead to do a subject that requires less mathematics, such as hospitality, so that you can raise your overall score. This will also help to reduce your stress and enable you to give more time to maths so that you can do better in that challenging subject. If you do not want to pursue a degree after matric, making subject choices will be a more flexible endeavour. The South African National Senior Certificate has four levels of pass. One of them is the degree pass, but you could also qualify for diploma or higher certificate study. These two qualifications, which are normally vocationally or career-focused, could give you access straight to the world of work and even degree study if you wanted to do this later. There are also options in public and private FET Colleges, or you may even want to start your own business. In these cases, a pass that enables access to higher education may not be as important, and it makes sense to include business or information technology-geared subjects. Keep your options as wide open as you can for as long as you can, so that if your needs and interests and aspirations change by the time you are 17, you are not boxed into a corner by the decisions you made today.
