A number of reasons to celebrate

amanzimtoti www.hillcrestfever.co.za

MANY people either look forward to the festive pe riod and begin their countdown to Christmas in Oc tober, while others are left running for the hills to avoid the ‘silliness’ that comes with the season. As we get ready to wind down and take a breath er, we decided to reflect on some of the wonderful reasons to celebrate the year that was. Yes, we can talk about some of the lowlights as well (no pun on the word ‘lights’), but that would not be very festive at all. The team at the Fever has had a wonderful year and has shared some truly remarkable memories with you. We’ve had an actionpacked year from meeting wonderful individuals who are slowly changing their communities one step at a time to covering campaigns that shows a proactive community who are willing to fight for their beloved home towns. To those people who are continuously going the

extra mile to serve others, we would like to salute you and thank you for allowing us to share your sto ries. This year South Africans voted hoping for the best – many are now glued to the parliament ses sion coverage because you never know what to ex pect. In 2015 we will be joining the queues for the byelections and once again, hoping for positive change. We know we live in a beautiful city and another reason to be a proud Durbanite is Durban has been voted an official new Seven Wonder City of the world. The picturesque beaches, rolling hills and breathtaking skyline together with a host of won derful inhabitants, sets us apart from the rest of South Africa. After 40 years, the Miss World title is held by a South African.

Rolene Strauss was crowned Miss World at the weekend and now features in a long list of remarka ble women who continue to make a difference to the countries they live in and the world. South Africans also took time through out the year to remember Nelson Mandela and do their bit to fulfill his legacy. It’s been a year since his death and many ques tioned the stability and patriotism of South Afri cans. The good news is, it seems as if communities are now more united than ever. Many believe his spirit still lives on calling it a sprinkling of ‘Madiba magic’. Clearly South Africans will continue to make great strides despite the negative news that some times comes to the fore. The Fever would like to wish all our fantastic cli ents and readers a wonderfully happy festive sea son and here’s to welcoming 2015 in style.

‘Be of one blood, you and I’ WHAT colour is the blood under your skin? We may look different, but the same blood runs through our veins. We all bleed the same blood. The colour doesn’t change. Have you ever heard the saying “I’m not the colour of my skin. I may look different but I’m a human being. We mustn’t let the colour of our skin be the cause of division or hate.” Celebrating Africa Month, we need to remember blood crosses all boundaries, no matter who you are or where you come from, blood is the one thing we all share. Our blood types do not break down along racial or ethnic lines. They don’t follow bounds of politics or religion. Not only do we share the same blood as our families, we share the same blood with those whom we believe to be strangers, those from a different culture, those who speak a different language, even those who worship differently than ourselves. It’s a self-centred falsehood that corrupts our minds into believing we should treat people unfairly because they have a different skin colour. It is not skin colour that forms the basis for discrimination, but the negative meaning given to the colour of skin.

Keely was contacted a week later by the producers and asked if she would like to sing with Carver at her concert with Watershed in Cape Town on 18 June. “I am very excited. To share the stage with Louise Carver is a dream come true. Louise is a true professional and has a beautiful voice. I am truly grateful for this opportunity,” said Keely. - Supplied.

Hating people because of their colour is wrong and it doesn’t matter which colour does the hating. It’s just plain wrong. I hope that people will finally come to realise that there is only one race - the human race - and that we are all part of it. - Bernalee Kahn. “If you prick us, do we not bleed? If you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die? And if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?” William Shakespeare, the Merchant of Venice. About the author: • Bernalee Kahn is an intern at Charles Merrington Executive Financial Services (Pty) Ltd (CMEFS).

THE South African Police Services would like to distance itself from the flyers or messages that are circulating on social media, warning parents about child smugglers, who are offering drug addicts money to help kidnap school children. SAPS appeals to the community and parents not to panic, but to take extra precautions when dealing with such false information. Those addicted to drugs can be referred to rehabilitation centres to get help. SAPS also urges people to refrain from circulating false messages aimed at causing alarm and citing SAPS as the distributors of such. The SAPS urges parents to take care of their children and know their whereabouts at all times. - Supplied.

R Camilla Floros, Reef Programme Scientist - Oceanographic Research Institute, at uShaka Marine World spoke about coral reefs and climate change. “The ocean regulates climate, feeds millions of people, produces most of the oxygen we breathe, is home to an incredible array of species and provides us with cures for diseases. However, due to many threats facing the ocean, such as climate change, time is running out for certain marine ecosystems. Coral reefs are the most diverse ecosystems in the ocean, but unfortunately, they are declining. “South Africa has beautiful coral

er where up to 80% of their corals on certain reefs have suffered bleaching. “South Africa’s reefs are subtropical so sea temperatures aren’t as high as tropical reefs and our reefs are also deeper, which has largely protected them from severe bleaching. “Corals are tiny animals that live in colonies that form coral reefs.

New Fiat 500 hits SA shores >>Fiat drives into future

IAT 500: the “great little car” and emblem of mass motorisation in Italy, of which nearly 3.8 million were sold and which has become firmly established in collective imaginary, was introduced in 1957. Fifty years later, in 2007, Fiat chose to capitalise on that heritage and drive into the future: the new 500 was born and it was an immediate success. Eight years later, with over 1.5 million sold; the torch is being passed to the New 500 with which Fiat is preparing to take on new market challenges without forgetting its own deep roots. Made by the Centro Stile Fiat, the car has a refreshed exterior and interior design which is unmistakably 500 and even more attractive. It has not grown in size but it is packed with more technology, engine versions and customisation ideas: only in this way can the icon evolve and refine the features which have turned it into a masterpiece even further. Available in two versions (tin top

and convertible), the New 500 will have three trim levels at launch - Pop, Popstar and Lounge. The first includes seven air bags, Uconnect Radio 5” with six speakers, AUX-IN and USB ports, and controls on the steering wheel and LED daytime running lights as standard equipment. The Popstar version adds automatic climate control system. The New 500 Lounge version is even richer featuring additional sophisticated details, like a panoramic glass sunroof, 15” alloy rims, chrome-plated front grille, Uconnect Radio 5” Live touchscreen infotainment system and leather steering wheels with controls allowing to integrate a smartphone, use many apps on the onboard system and stay connected. The engine line-up of the New 500 includes a 0.9 TwinAir engine (65KW or 77KW), In particular, the two-cylinder engines boast record-breaking performance: 90 g/km for the 65 KW engine, 99 for the 77KW. In short, the latest arrival is even more focused on sustainable future mobility. Audacious and seductive, the New 500 has no fewer than 1900 innovative details, all designed to enhance

originality and make its style even more refined at the same time. New are the front headlights with LED daytime running lights, the rear light clusters, the colour palette, the dashboard, the materials - the updates are substantial but loyal to the unmistakable 500 style. The New 500 is refreshed under the sign of aesthetic continuity and technological evolution. This is the magical formula of being 500, the only model capable of coherently blending opposites - it is exclusive, yet accessible, it is a global bestseller with a quintessentially Italian heart, it is an elegant product which is also packed with fun. It is very personal Atos although over 00 1 500 000 units have been sold. New design alloy rims – 15” and 16”, also diamond-finished – are also available. The colour palette features 13 body paints i10 (seven pastel, 00 one three-coat and five metal-

lised), featuring the new Corallo Red and Opera Burgundy. Two black-yellow and black-red variants are also available in combination with “Second Skin”, an exclusive customisation offered by the New 500 to satisfy the most different moods and creative needs. Everyone can tailor the 500 they want and dress it with ever new looks. Walking into a dealership will be a bit like walking into a high-end fashion house.
