A number of reasons to celebrate 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.

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.

Toxic stench continues >> Local company locates source of fumes KALISHA NAICKER kalisha.naicker@media24.com

HE Upper Highway community were up in arms as toxic odours filled the air in the area recent-

ly.

Residents believe that the odour could be the cause of illnesses in many people who were affected. Many pointed fingers at a local waste management company, and created social media pages to have the site shut down. However, Dean Thompson, CEO of EnviroServ responded to the allegations and said that the company responded immediately once they became aware of the Hillcrest odour issue. “EnviroServ initiated a meeting with community members from Plantations Estate, Hillcrest, Windsor Park and surrounding areas. A representative working group which includes community representatives, munici-

pal officials, air quality specialists and an independent health consultant was established to determine the source of the odours and the associated health impacts experienced in the greater Hillcrest area. “EnviroServ acknowledged that the site might be contributing to the odour problem. In tackling this uniquely complex challenge the Working Group decided to rely on the science-based work of experts.” In addition to the air quality specialist appointed by EnviroServ - GeoZone Environmental - the company agreed to fund the appointment by the community of Golder Associates to represent community interests. Following extensive research, the air quality specialists presented their findings to the Working Group on 27 July. Based on available data they concluded that: . a leachate storage tank at the Shongweni landfill site has been contributing to the odours experienced; . it is unlikely that emissions from the Shongweni landfill site are the sole source of malodour in the area, or the sole cause of the recent odour complaints by the wider Hillcrest residents; and

. the level of contaminants thus far sampled in the community cannot be responsible for the chronic health effects being reported. He said that the company accepts the findings of the specialists. “My company is implementing corrective actions to reduce the odours emanating from the leachate tank. These actions include an ozone-based oxidation process as an additional treatment for the leachate, and covering the leachate collection tank. “We have invited the Working Group to monitor our corrective actions. We anticipate an immediate and significant reduction in emissions from our site once these actions have been completed. The fact that the appointed experts have identified other sources that impact negatively on air quality may, however, mean that the community will continue to experience malodours.” Other potential sources, Thompson said, as identified by the independent specialists, include the multifuel pipeline, various municipal waste-water treatment plants and pump stations, as well as other agricultural and industrial activities. “We sincerely regret any inconvenience caused and assure [residents] that we are taking all necessary steps to mitigate our contribution to the malodours experienced by the community. “We thank members of the Working Group for their guidance and for their participation in this project and also the wider community that continued to monitor and report odours,” added Thompson.

Two killed in Fields Hill crash TWO people were killed and another two sustained serious injuries when two delivery trucks collided head-on on the M13, Fields Hill on Tuesday. Paramedics found the two vehicles badly damaged with two occupants trapped inside one of the vehicles. Both of were in a critical condition. Paramedics managed to extricate the one trapped victim. The other trapped victim had to be freed using hydraulic equipment. Once freed, the two critically injured quickly deteriorated. Paramedics did everything possible to save their lives, but they were later declared dead on the scene. The two occupants of the other vehicle were treated by another service on scene and transported to a nearby hospital. It is understood that one of the vehicles lost control and veered across

the centre median into oncoming traffic. In a separate incident the next morning (Wednesday), seven people were injured, including six children, when two light motor vehicles collided on the M1 in Mariannhill. ER24 paramedics arrived on the scene shortly after 7am and found one vehicle on the left-hand lane while the second vehicle was found in the middle of the road. On further inspection, paramedics found that a woman and six children, aged between six and eight, had been injured in the collision. Paramedics assessed the patients and found that their injuries ranged from minor to moderate. The patients were treated and taken to hospital. Both accidents are being investigated by police. - Supplied.

Warning for Upper Highway residents KALISHA NAICKER SA Community Crime Watch (SACCW) would like to issue a warning to Upper Highway communities to be extra vigilant as there has been several incidents of house robberies, hijackings and burglaries. Steven King spokesperson for SACCW said trespassing is still a big concern. He said that security companies and neighbourhood watches have been kept busy chasing trespassers out of private properties in the early hours of the mornings.

“People must make sure that they lock all tools, bikes and items of value away at night. Make sure garages are locked and that there is no tools of opportunity lying around that can be used against them or used to gain entry into their homes. “Trespassing is a serious problem and needs to be addressed. The trespasser is not there to have a look at your flowers and admire your garden. They come to commit a crime.” King added that the only difference between a trespasser and a rapist is opportunity. “I would suggest that people become more serious in the fight against crime as stats will show you only a small percentage of our communities are actively involved. “Criminals are becoming more and more brazen,” he added.

‘Fever’ strives to make a difference KALISHA NAICKER THE Fever staff visited Choc Childhood Cancer Foundation to give their 67 minutes for Mandela Day on Friday. The staff arrived with goodies for the children which included colouring-in books, crayons, toiletries as well as party packs, sponsored by Perfect Parties (Taryn Watson). There were smiles all round as volunteers took the Fever the staff on a tour of the Choc Lodge (the home where moms and children are housed). Choc was established in 1979 as a support group to parents of children with cancer, by parents of children with cancer.

CHOC volunteers (left) receiving the party packs which were do nated by the Fever team (right).

Having experienced the immense emotional and financial toll that cancer takes they recognised there is more than one victim in the family of a child with cancer. Their aim is to ease the burden on parents facing the same journey by providing access to relevant, accurate information, as well as emotional and practical support. The organisation does not receive funding from government, but relies on donations from caring corporates, individuals and parents of children with cancer. Funds raised are used to provide all-encompassing support, from direct practical help to the children and their families and those involved in the treatment, to necessary equipment.

Some still undecided RANJENI MUNUSAMY

ITH days to go until South Africa’s fifth local-government elections, it is worrying that many people are still undecided about who to vote for or whether to vote at all. The situation in other parts of the world, particularly the Brexit vote in the United Kingdom and Donald Trump’s terrifying rise in the United States, shows the dangers of being too complacent about democracy or making the wrong choice based on rhetoric. A few months ago, I was on a judg-

ing panel for a political debate among teams of high-school pupils. The teams had to make up manifestos for fictitious political parties and debate with each other on their respective ideological and policy positions. I was amazed at the knowledge and political maturity in the room as they presented their arguments. Over lunch, however, I was astounded that some of the pupils said they would not be voting in the municipal elections, even though it would be their first opportunity to cast their ballots. One pupil said she did not think her vote would make a difference and felt that most party leaders make false commitments on the campaign trail. Of course, it is true that politicians should not be trusted based on what they say on the stump and it is easy to feel insignificant when you are one in 26 million potential voters. What worried me was that the

young woman was so excited about engaging in a political debate based on fictitious parties and policies, yet she did not want to participate in a real-life process that could impact on her future. Unfortunately, she is not alone. People calling in to a Johannesburg radio talk show this week said they are disillusioned and feel that none of the parties contesting the elections represents them adequately. One caller suggested that in future, ballot papers should have a box for “none of the above” so that disillusioned people could still participate in the elections but make it known that they do not support any of the parties. This is a better option than staying away from the polls altogether, the radio caller said. When you hear the amount of rhetoric and false promises on the campaign trail, it is easy to become apathetic. Many of the political leaders who

Similarities between three faiths are great AN interesting thought occurred to me today about the world’s religions and I thought I should share it. Judaism, Christianity and Islam, known as the Abrahamic faiths as they all have Abraham in their origins, ironically all have creationism over natural evolution to explain life on

Earth. Strangely, they all seem to have evolved from the first major monotheistic faith, Judaism, to adapt to the societies in which they gained dominance. Today’s modern Islamic extremists like Isis are behaving in a way that was

Thankful for the rain WHEN everything around us seems all doom and gloom with the severe drought, poverty, lawlessness, localelection tension, political killings, cor-

ruption, terrorism and so much more, the Lord still remains faithful. The recent rains are evidence that he never abandons his people. It is

last seen during the inquisitions of Christianity but in these violent times no deities emerged to direct or bless those involved. There are big differences in all three faiths but the underlying similarities are even greater. For example, in Judaism and Islam, pork is forbid-

with great delight that I say thank you to the almighty for the tremendous relief that this water from heaven has brought in, quenching the parched earth. While many may still say that the drought has not been broken yet and farmers are still in dire need of more rain, let us be thankful for what we have just received. It is indeed so refreshing to smell cleaner air, to hear the tyres of vehicles sloshing through

have been zooming in and out of communities over the past few months hunting for votes, have done little to improve the state of the country while in the positions in which they serve. If anything, they make it worse. It is incredible that they make commitments about good governance and the accountability of councillors when they do not practise what they preach. It is particularly exasperating that after interacting with communities and listening to people’s frustrations with poor service delivery, crime, drug abuse, the lack of jobs and inhumane living conditions, these politicians will disappear into their ivory towers after the elections and forget all that they heard. But does this justify not voting? It should not. Our democracy will be strengthened when we develop a society where people make informed choices about their elected representatives and are not swayed by rhetoric and election

gimmicks. Our responsibility as voters does not end on election day. We need to remain engaged in what happens in our communities and local councils to ensure that those who are elected are held to account for their actions and commitments. This election has more parties than before, so voters have many choices, including independent candidates. It is important to be familiar with who the ward candidates are as it will be those people and not the national leaders who will be making decisions that will directly affect our lives. I advised the disillusioned pupil that if none of the parties fully represents her views, she should choose the least objectionable one. I am crossing my fingers that she will be in the queue on Wednesday. • Ranjeni Munusamy is a political journal ist and commentator for the Daily Maverick. • ranjeni.munusamy@gmail.com

den, but as genetic traits can often skip a generation, it is allowed in Christianity. I would like to initiate a reader’s debate on this subject. I am no cultural evolutionary expert but could the fact that there are three clearly linked monotheistic faiths not in effect prove that no single creator actually exists?

Lambie has been badly let down by Springboks THE mere fact that Pat Lambie remains concussed, five weeks after that fateful collision in the first Test against the Irish, puts the issue of incompetent refs, as well as citing commissioners, into perspective. The one-week suspension (a disgrace) was based on an assumption that the offence was a midair collision, when it was, in fact, an off-the-ball incident, reminiscent of a Kamikazi pilot hit.

This was two different scenarios, with different set of rules and different penalties. To prove this point, just a quick insight into the following - if Lambie had stopped dead in his tracks after kicking the ball, and, very importantly, remembering the offender was already air bourne, and could not change his direction, as claimed, where would he have landed? A couple of metres in front of Lam-

Must have been embarrassing A SPEECH given by presidential hopeful Donald Trump’s wife, which turned out to be a rip-off of one given by Michelle Obama years ago, must have embarrassed the front-runner.

Melania Trump defended it as her own “with a little help”. The husband despises the current president, while she “admires” the first lady.

bie, of course, looking very stupid. If the right call was made, the correct protocol would have been followed and the right penalty imposed, in this case, easily 10 to 12 weeks’ suspension, if not more. But Lambie was badly let down, as seems to be the norm with most South African players lately. I just hope that this young man’s confidence hasn’t taken a knock, as he seems to be a marked man, reminiscent of a Naas Botha of yesteryear. So much for sportsmanship. ANTHONY TIMMS

If Obama had been running against the hotelier-turned-politician, who knows? It could have turned out to be a photo finish! Florida would then have had to do a recount — which previously resulted in George W. Bush toppling Al Gore, and an “Inconvenient Truth”. A.R. MODAK

Mr uShaka vies for new title KALISHA NAICKER kalisha.naicker@media24.com HILLCREST resident, Ashley Eddy, who recently took the Mr uShaka 2016 title, is also in the running for the title of Mister South Africa 2016. Having made it to top 25, 28yearold Eddy, a me chanical and electrical engineer is taking part in a 30 day challenge set by the organisers of Mr SA, which sees him performing random acts of kindness. Some of the acts included escorting individuals without an umbrella in the rain, to their car, assisting charity organisations, including Project Dignity, by de livering motivational speeches to school girls and handing them panty packs, encouraging them to stay in school despite the changes to their bodies, visiting and donating time to abandoned babies at The Baby Home, as well as helping with physical labour at some companies, among other “duties”. Eddy said the reason he chose to take part in the Mr SA competition was his passion for children and the education for children. “I always dreamt of giving back to my old primary school in South Beach, Durban. It is a government school and has battled for many years financially. “I would love to financially assist the school to up grade their facilities and donate school clothing, school shoes and educational tools to improve pupils and teachers’ personal development and educational abilities.” One of his dreams came true recently when he built an organic garden for the school so that the pupils gain valuable lessons about how to be selfsustainable. “I also work closely with woman's rights and equali ty organisations that focus on the education and car ing of children and woman. “I am very passionate about this movement as ed ucation is one of the most powerful tools, and each Vote for child and individual should be educated and treated as an equal in society. Eddy by “I want to assist in not only changing peo SMSing ple’s lives, but helping them change theirs in a constructive, healthy and positive way that ‘MrSA002’ to 47439. will benefit them as an individual and the SMS charged at community.” With so much respect and love for his R3. country , Eddy hopes to one day make his dream come true.

Miss Earth SA goes ‘green’ >> Kloof lass makes a difference and launches her waste project at Ingane Yami Primary School

HE Miss Earth South Africa regional finalists came together at Tsogo Sun Gold Reef City Theme Park in Johannesburg recently. Participants toured the Pikitup Southdale Depot in order to get an better understanding of waste and the journey thereof. The Miss Earth South Africa campaign for 2016 is #WasteStopsWithME. The objective is to create an understanding of the problem and to highlight the importance of each individual’s impact. This was followed by a tour of Johannesburg CBD, where the team saw hijacked buildings, illegal dumping, informal recycling depots and the challenges of waste. The story of informal pickers, landfill space and water contamination were all issues that were unpacked and discussed. Empowering these young women to be ambassadors in the waste sector. The programme included yoga sessions by Lorna Jane, a workshop by Edith Venter on the attributes of a brand ambassador. Finance and the management of money was addressed by Thabo Hollo from Nedbank, and the finalists were given a basic understanding of what

planning they should be doing as young women. Ella Bella, director of Miss Earth South Africa explained: “We have to create a balance in our young women. We want them to understand wellness, finance and the environment while balancing their EQ with their IQ. “The Miss Earth South Africa is looking for an environmental spokesperson, that understands the challenges that we are facing, and that can be a role model and a mentor to the younger generation. The finalists have rolled out several educational waste campaigns and community clean ups, they came together to share their stories and experiences. “Working with people across all ages is rewarding and creates a shift in mind-set. Our objective is to find solutions to waste. I believe we are succeeding.” Mireesha Narsai from Kloof, rolled out her waste project at Ingane Yami Primary School, teaching children about waste and recycling. She loves to be creative in the kitchen and enjoys developing recipes and is passionate about the environment. - Supplied.

>> Pokémon Go craze hits technobuffs

KYLE VENKTESS

GGS have massive health benefits and are seen as a crucial part of any fitness fanatic’s lifestyle — they are equally as important in the health benefits of Pokémon Go. While the app hasn’t quite made its way to South Africa yet, local users have managed to download it via the app hosting site apkmirror.com sending the country into a craze — with unavoidable hoards of users clustering around what are normally arbitrary locations collecting pokeballs, eggs and potions. The app has pinned areas outside of places of worship, post offices and other landmarks as virtual markers from where users can collect items within the game. Pokémon, short for “Pocket Monsters”, is the hit TV series from the nineties which has since spawned the most downloaded app in U.S. history — the goal behind it being to collect as many virtual creatures as possible and become a master. How Pokémon Go works Once a South African user downloads the app from the APK mirror website, they install the game and are able to chose a “starter pokémon” from three creatures. Once chosen, the hunt begins. Pokémon are around the country, “virtually” everywhere. The app uses the user’s smartphone GPS to track Pokémon around them. Once the user taps a Pokémon, the smartphone camera is activated and the user is able to photograph it, as if

it were in front of them. A pokéball is then used to catch them with the flick of a finger toward them. Pokéstops are places where users can collect more pokeballs after finishing them, and Gyms are places users can battle to gain more experience points and level up. The user then has to walk around before new Pokémon appear. Health benefits Going back to the eggs. While users are forced to walk around to actually catch Pokémon, Eggs in the game can be incubated and once walking, either two kilometres, five kilometres or 10 km, hatch a new Pokémon. Most smartphones already encourage users to complete a 10 000-step-aday walk with the device’s pedometer to track step count. Pokémon Go user’s location of the smartphone forces the user to physically walk around to hatch Eggs. A small display shows what Pokémon are near and can be tracked, but is often inaccurate, again forcing the user to walk countless steps to actually find them. The walking aspect makes it far different from any other fitness apps available for download today. Pokémon Go CEO John Hanke told Business Insider in an interview: “A lot of fitness apps come with a lot of ‘baggage’ that ends up making you feel like ‘a failed Olympic athlete’ when you’re just trying to get fit … Pokémon Go is designed to get you up and moving by promising you Pokémon as rewards, rather than placing pressure on you.”

Birds that live in Kloof Brownhooded Kingfisher: The Brownhooded Kingfisher hardly lives up to its name, inhabit ing mostly woodland and bush where there ar en’t many fish, and feeding on a wide range of small fry, including locusts, grasshoppers, crick ets, mantids, cockroaches, beetles, caterpillars, scorpions, etc. They operate solitarily or in pairs, perching quietly for long periods on branch or wire, exposed or in shade, always alert for prey. They fly down fast to seize prey from the ground, briefly alighting or, more commonly, seizing it without alighting and re turning to perch. Large items are battered against the branch and swallowed head first. They are rarely observed actually fishing, but they do like to bathe.

SpeediBeet pet food SPEEDIBeet is made from pure unmolassed sugar beet pulp which is a byproduct of the sugar beet industry. Sugar beet is grown in Europe and North America as an alternative to sugar cane which is grown in tropical and subtropical regions of the world. It is mainly grown as a source of table sugar for human consumption. Sugar beet accounts for 30% of the worlds sugar production. The sugar beet harvest in the UK usually takes place from September onwards with the beet being delivered into one of several sugar beet factories situated throughout eastern En gland. After cleaning, the beet is sliced into cos settes by a machine that resembles a kitchen grater and as much surface area is presented to maximise the sugar extraction process as possible. The sliced sugar beet is mixed with hot water and the sugar is extracted. After the water has been squeezed out, the pulp is dried and usually molasses is added back where upon the pulp is either used in its shredded form or it is pelleted. SpeediBeet is manufactured from beet pulp which has not had molasses added to it and is therefore around 95% sugar free. The beet pulp then undergoes a further patented process and is then cooked utilising our process, micronisation. This involves heating the dried beet pulp at relatively low temperatures for a short time using infrared heat and prevents the protein from denaturing allowing for quicker release of nutri ents into the horses digestive system. The micronizing process also imparts flavour into the beet pulp so the product does not require the use of added molasses i.e. sugar for palatability.The beet pulp is then flaked to increase surface area to aid rapid water absorption. That’s why SpeediBeet can be prepared in under 10 minutes instead of the usual 24 hours for traditional sugar beet pulp.

Cape Robinchat: They usually forage singly or with their mate, spending most of the time on the ground, whisking leaves and litter. In fact they forage in all strata, capturing prey on foli age, tree trunks and rocks, and hawk flying in sects, including termite alates and fruit flies. Their most common prey are ants, present in 87% of stomach and faecal samples. This is fol lowed by beetles (68%), moths and caterpillars (46%), termites (35%), wasps and bees (16%), plant and assassin bugs (15%), spiders (11%), crickets and mantids (9%), and flies (9%).

Common Fiscal: Previously known as the Jackie Hang man or Butcher Bird due to its habit of impaling its prey on acacia thorns (or barbed wire) for later con sumption, the Common Fiscal has never been a popu lar bird. It hunts from exposed perches, such as tele phone lines, using a sitandwait technique. Prey is usually caught following a shallow glide. Small prey is usually eaten on the ground while larger victims are carried back in its bill to the same or another perch. Vertebrates and large insects are sometimes taken back to the perch in its feet, holding the body with one foot and tearing at it with its hooked bill. Some times included in its menu are chicks and small birds, which does nothing for its popularity.

Better than marijuana oil? THERE is a craze going around at the moment for all things ganja. Oil, butter, cookies, vapours, elixirs, and so forth. Let’s examine the facts. • Three marijuana sub-component drugs are already licenced (for nausea, multiple sclerosis and mild-moderate pain) overseas – big pharma isn’t hiding

the benefits, drug legislation makes it illegal or very hard for them to research it. These are not available in SA. • Dogs and cats are extremely sensitive to the psychoactive and medical side effects of these compounds, but not necessarily to the benefits, due to physiological receptor differences. For ex-

ample, heart rate and blood pressures changes and vomiting are common side effects in several reports from veterinary emergency centres in countries where medical and illegal marijuana use is widespread. • Efficacy for nausea does not = efficacy for cancer. In fact, every well-constructed scientific and field study on this has failed thus far. The medical scientist who can prove a marked benefit over traditional oncology therapies would be a medical hero (which cure 95% of testicular and 70% of breast cancer, for example). It’s like saying that because penicillin if great for bacterial infections, it’s wonderful for strokes. Huh? How did that leap occur? There’s a lot more to know about the specific interactions of drug receptor tissue organism disease. If you want to study this, go get a degree and make it your PhD thesis and life’s work. Otherwise you are experimenting on your animal, and break the law, nogal. Don’t expect your vet to tell the cops he prescribed a schedule 8 drug for your cat (even if it’s a Cheshire cat) - Dr Anthony Zambelli.

Drummie’s achievements and aims KALISHA NAICKER

OREST Hills Drummie Club is a new drum majorette team made up of primary and high school girls from the Upper Highway area. Coaches Megan Roth and Maxine Bradshaw are proud of their senior captain, Ntokozo Shezi, who was awarded her KwaZulu-Natal majorette colours last year and was a member of the KZN provincial team who participated in the South African Majorette and Cheerleading Nationals in Germiston recently. Ntokozo’s passion, besides majorettes, is music and singing in her church choir. She also composes, raps and plays guitar and piano. This inspirational go-getter is currently in Grade 11 and wants to pursue a career in music once she has matriculated. Speaking about her goals, she said that her majorette goals for this year are to once again achieve her KZN majorette colours and attend the national selection camp at the end of the year to audition for her South African majorette colours. She also aims to be selected for the touring international team. Roth congratulated Ntokozo on her achievements and encouraged other girls to get involved with majorettes and assist the club. “As with any new sporting organisation, fund-raising is a substantial contributor to the success thereof. While the teams are considered to be well established in a growing squad

with their routines, there are several challenges that necessitate financial support in order to get the team to a satisfactory level at competition. We therefore appeal to the community of the Upper Highway area for support.” She said the club will be hosting a fund-raising karoake evening at the Forest Hills Sports Club on 2 August and asked the community to support the event. “This will be a night of fun and entertainment. Entrance is R20 and food will be on sale and a cash bar will be available,” added Roth. Contact Roth on 082 802 1976 or email megz3007@gmail.co m for more information, or if you would like to be a sponsor.

‘Old Boy’ aims for Paralympics perfection KEARSNEY College Old Boy and Paralympics starlet, Mpumelelo Mhlongo believes that growing up in Klaarwater is a motivation that paved the way for his athletics career. “Klaarwater definitely showed me my love for all sports and having competitive friends to share it with was what paved the way into athletics. “I just feel sorry for my grandmother’s washing line which was used for high jumps,” Mhlongo said. The 22-year-old was announced as one of the South African Sports Confederation and Olympics Committee (Sascoc) star-studded 45 athletes to represent South Africa across 10 sporting code s at the 2016 Paralympics from 7 to 18 September. He said aiming for gold is what rings in his mind and going to Rio would require him to apply all his winning techniques. Mhlongo who is also a UCT finalyear student in BSc Chemical Engineering and 2015 sportsperson for the institution is no stranger to winning having broken African records in long-jump and high-jump respectively. Known as “Mpumi” by the athletics fraternity, the South African T44 Champion in the 100m, 200m, long jumps and high jumps continues to prove that disability is not a barrier.

Mhlongo was born with a handicap which affects the function of one of his legs and has since got involved in sports particularly athletics. “I have always been told that learn to love to love yourself. “Learn to fail and learn from those failures those are the building blocks of success for who may not be starting off on equal grounds,” Mhlongo added. In 2012, during his matric year at Kearsney College, the Paralympian achieved seven distinctions. Despite achieving such results, Mhlongo remains adamant that school didn’t test pressure handling abilities. “I was lucky to attend Kearsney College which had all the teachers and facilities one can ask for. I made sure the opportunity was not wasted,” Mhlongo said. Shortly after Sascoc announced the Paralympics team, Kearsney released a statement wishing Mhlongo their best wishes for his selection. “This is wonderful news. We are very proud of him and what he has achieved to date and wish him all the best for the games, go Mpume,” the school said in a statement. According to sports reporter, Rowan Nicolls, the lack of competitions for disable people in South Africa limits opportunities and competitiveness for athletes like Mhlongo. - Sandile Lukhozi.

The challenge is simple - 68% of monthly expenses are covered by a government subsidy and the residents’ pensions which means that the home has to raise the monthly shortfall of 32% from the private sector. “To meet this challenge we have employed a full-time fund-raiser and we are now seeing the benefit of that decision,” said Guy Levene, who has been the chairman of the home for 26 years.

cased the home’s residents and what they have contributed to their families and communities over the years. “It is so sad that society tends to forget those who have invested in their children and grandchildren and laid foundations for others to succeed. They should be respected and cared for in their twilight years,” said Levene. Before breakfast guests were treated to a performance by the Issy Geshen choir, the 2015 winners of the interhome choir festival which was conceived and is managed by the Issy Geshen staff. This year the festival will see 19 old age homes competing. The highlight of the breakfast was the address by the keynote speaker, Sanele Dlamini, provisional manager for the National Lotteries Commission (NLC). Dlamini spoke about the revised structure of the NLC and the fact that

the decentralisation of the head office has allowed the provisional managers to focus on the specific needs of their area. According to Dlamini, the managers are now more in touch with what is happening on the ground and are, in turn, in a better position to provide support where the greatest needs are. Dlamini announced that the NLC would continue their support for the Issy Geshen Lamont Home for the Aged because, not only did it address the needs of the poorest of the poor, it ticked all the boxes from an administration and compliance point of view as well as showing a potential for growth.

The demeanour of this lovely dog has now completely changed. The once petriﬁed dog cowering from human contact has now blossomed into a happy and content dog, enjoying human contact and interaction. The tail that was once permanently tucked in between his legs is now wagging happily when it sees its rescuers and SPCA staff. All wounds are healing well. Let’s show this lovely dog that cruelty is not all that life is about and allow him the opportunity to experience what a loving home can be.

On 30 June 2016, Inspector Petra Abrams and Field Officer Pamela Zondi found a male Staffie cross wandering in a street in Reservoir Hills after attending to another cruelty complaint in the area. The dog was covered in old bite wounds from head to toe with untreated wounds to its face and neck with visible swelling due to infection. The underweight dog was utterly petrified - cowering and flinching at the smallest movements close to him. He was rushed off to the Kloof & Highway SPCA Clinic, where he was immediately treated and all his wounds cleaned.

Parents and their chil dren are in for a bushveld mountain biking treat when they take on the trails and pathways of Tala Collec tion Private Game Reserve.

SPORT MTB ‘family affair’ awaits T

HE 18km Stihl Tala Family Ride remains a key attraction of the annual Illovo Eston MTB Challenge, which takes place at Eston Farmers’ Club on Sunday 7 August, as mountain biking look to safely adventure through the spectacular wilderness of Tala Collection Private Game Reserve alongside family and friends. While the sport’s top snakes battle it out for the overall spoils in the 60km Illovo Eston Marathon – the feature race of the Illovo Eston MTB Challenge – scores of riders young and old are expected to enjoy a slower paced, familyorientated time in the saddle during the 18km exploration through Tala. “Tala is unusual as a Private Game Reserve in that it does not practice a policy of exclusivity but rather encourages daily outings with family and friends,” explains Tala Collection Private Game Reserve General Manager, Mike Nunan. “Thus the Illovo Eston MTB Challenge, and the 18km Stihl Tala Family

Ride in particular, fits perfectly into our philosophy of spending time with family in a safe conservation environment pursuing healthy activities,” he adds. Parents and their children, novice mountain bikers and social weekend warriors alike all look forward to another chance to enjoy the bushveld’s trails and pathways while spotting the reserve’s variety of game from a distance, all in the safety of the Tala rangers’ watch. “Tala has a long association with the Eston MTB Challenge and welcomes the opportunity to expose our reserve to the cyclists and supporters on race day again this year. “It is all about family and friends enjoying themselves in a safe environment, all of which also contributes to our conservation efforts at Tala.” With the Illovo Eston MTB Challenge’s four events – 60km Illovo Eston Marathon, 40km aQuellé Half Marathon, 18km Stihl Tala Family Ride and 10km Om-

>> Families encouraged to participate in cycling event nia Kids Ride – offering a wealth of offroad adventure options, Nunan urges friends and families to enjoy themselves and make a day of the trip to the Eston region. “Have fun, be safe and respect the wonderful environment through which you cycle!” encourages Nunan. “And once you’ve had a great time in the saddle, why not come visit us at Tala and enjoy a meal at Aloe Restaurant or a snack at the Rock Pools Tuck Shop?” Families eager to take part in the 2016 Illovo Eston MTB Challenge are encouraged to submit their entries online before 31 July’s pre-entry closing date and take advantage of the event’s family special of a 15% discount off entries of four or more riders. The 2016 Illovo Eston MTB Challenge takes place on Sunday, 7 August. Entries can be submitted via www.roag.co.za and more information can be found at www.illovoestonmtb.co.za - Supplied.
